[14:14] <PeskyJ> or maybe x-session-manager
[14:16] <conde> omegamormegil: looks like the issue is not solved, any idea how I could help to solve it?
[14:16] <DarkKnight> hey while installing my new printer i dont seem to be seeing my printer version...but i do see other versions
[14:17] <VSpike> I'm sure this normally works! I have an .iso file and I'm doing "sudo fsck -f blah.iso", and it's giving me the usage info.  What am I doing wrong?
[14:17] <slack_baphomet> any tips on how to setup a quick vnc/remote desktop connextion from a mac to my linux box
[14:17] <xteejx> NEWS: This isn't spam guys I'm a triager for Bug Control http://launchpad.net/~xteejx, but since this is the support channel - I just found out - if you bought a laptop/Pc from PC World/dixons/currys etc in the UK you ARE now covered under the monthly protection plan for hardware fault only and accidental damage despite what they tell you instore (UK only i think)
[14:17] <xteejx> i just rang them sorry if you think this is spam is not guys just helpful info :)
[14:18] <VSpike> Ah .. I have to use fsck.ext3 .. now, what is that?
[14:18] <ddgoose> why would you fsck an .iso file?
[14:18] <DarkKnight> hey while installing my new printer i dont seem to be seeing my printer version...but i do see other versions
[14:18] <Pici> xteejx: This is the Ubuntu support channel, and that doesn't really seem Ubuntu related at all.
[14:18] <BridgeInhabitant> Hi, I need some help diagnosing random system freezes
[14:19] <DarkKnight> how to install hplip
[14:19] <xteejx> pici: I know, but 75% of PCs are bought from them in the UK it seemed relevant to linux users as a whole :)
[14:19] <xteejx> fsck is to check filesystems, not ISOs
[14:19] <Ohmu> xteejx, #hardware would be interested
[14:19] <Pici> xteejx: Still, its offtopic for here.
[14:20] <omegamormegil> conde:  Well, you could check to see if it's fixed in the Jaunty alpha, but this is challenging as they haven't released a Live image yet.  You'd have to install it.  The bug also needs to be triaged and reported upstream.  Duplicates need to be marked as such.  There might already be a more developed bug report than this one about this issue, but I haven't found one yet.  See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage
[14:20] <Ohmu> Well, there's precious little else going on in the channel so I for one don't really mind
[14:20] <rookeeeeeeeee> ok guys can someone please tell me how to undo this command? rm ~/.mozilla; mv ~/.mozilla_old ~/.mozilla
[14:20] <DarkKnight> how to install hplip
[14:20] <Pici> rookeeeeeeeee: You can't undo an 'rm'
[14:21] <Ohmu> rookeeeeeeeee,  you could rm it again and reinstall...
[14:21] <xteejx> rookeeee: cannot undo rm command, try reinstalling firefox from within synaptic
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> rookeeeeeeeee you dont
[14:21] <VSpike> xteejx / ddgoose : it's the image of an ext3 filesystem extracted with ddrescue.  So, perhaps .iso the wrong terminology?
[14:21] <jrib> rookeeeeeeeee: that command is broken seeing as ~/.mozilla/ was probably a directory
[14:21] <Pici> jrib: good point
[14:21] <conde> omegamormegil: thank you, I just signed in to launchpad to confirm the issue, I hope that helps too,
[14:22] <omegamormegil> conde:  No problem.  I want it fixed too.
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> any decent placed to dl the intrepid iso that dont fail during the last minutes repeatedly
[14:22] <snek> use torrents
[14:22] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: torrents
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> I dont use torrents
[14:23] <Ohmu> Can anyone help me understand the connection between GUI network stuff (WiCD or networkManager) and commandline/configfile stuff (eg sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, or  /etc/network/interfaces)
[14:23] <ValentineXX> System Monitor is telling something else and free -m is telling something else about my memory usage and free memory,
[14:23] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: then make sure you md5 it after downloading to make sure it was done
[14:23] <slicslak> i have an acer al2216w display that can run at 1680x1050.  that's what the screen resolution is set to right now (autodetected on install), but the display looks horrible and if i go into the monitor's configuration (via the buttons at the front) it says the display is running at 1280x1024.
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> why do they even show they have it for dl
[14:23] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: and maybe use a downloading client which can resume downloads in case it stops
[14:23] <BridgeInhabitant> can someone please help me solve why after updating recently ubuntu now locks up completely causing the fan to run at full revs randomly during use and when idle?
[14:24] <yadid> should i stay with evolution mail or better work with thunderbird?
[14:24] <jrib> yadid: it's your personal preference
[14:24] <Ohmu> BridgeInhabitant, get htop and see whats chewing the cpu, maybe
[14:24] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: there are thousands of mirrors, just because one (or maybe your own connection) isn't good is a stupid reason to blame Ubuntu for having a download link on their site
[14:24] <VSpike> yadid: IME thunderbird interacts slightly better with Outlook ppls
[14:24] <n8tuser> Ohmu-> icons you click normally have commands behind them, do a right click and look at the propertied, then investigate the command or script for it
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> snek I have tried two different cable connections and one dsl and half a dozen sites .
[14:24] <VSpike> yadid: although only evolution can talk to an exchange server
[14:25] <yadid> i dont like outlook that much
[14:25] <VSpike> yadid: I hate it.. but everyone I work with uses it
[14:25] <BridgeInhabitant> Ohmu, nothing is chewing up cpu though
[14:25] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: top , press p to sort process by cpu usage, check dmesg to see if there is something funny
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> snek and it has nothing to do with ubuntu, and everything to do with the different mirror hosting sites
[14:25] <yadid> same here, every1 in the association i work with r stuck with microsoft
[14:25] <xteejx> question: anyone know what happened to the script for hotmail to check mail in thunderbird, might have been evolution....
[14:25] <yadid> infact its the first linux computer in 10 years there
[14:26] <ksbalaji> after a system update, the system has considerably slowed down. Please help
[14:26] <yadid> my boss let me try it
[14:26] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, I know how to use top but nothing appears to be out of the ordinary
[14:26] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: then check dmesg
[14:26] <snek> jack_sparrow: but why not use torrents? it's the most reliable method.. and it's not complicated or anything..
[14:26] <Neff> Hi people, I need your help! I'm trying to play a real media stream with banshee (http://real.xobix.ch/live/rsi3.ram) but it doesn't work at all. Do you know if it is possible to make banshee work with this kind of streams or should I change my mediaplayer?
[14:26] <VSpike> yadid: well, if your outlook friends use html mail etc, thunderbird tends to render it better
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> snek we are offtopoic.. I choose NOT to use the torrents
[14:26] <xteejx> yadid: Seconded
[14:27] <phpwutz> @Neff don't know if banshee can handle that really - for streams VLC is quiet nice
[14:27] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, my system has slowed down after a system update. Please guide.
[14:27] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, dmesg hasn't logged anything because the system crashed as in locked up, wouldn't let me do anything or let itself write log entries
[14:27] <snek> jack_sparrow: then i'm not helping you further.. good luck
[14:27] <Jack_Sparrow> ksbalaji sorry , working on so other things atm
[14:27] <yadid> i'll check thunderbird out than, may be it will work better than evolution
[14:28] <yadid> does it live messeges on the server though? so others can take it later?
[14:28] <VSpike> yadid: it can, yes
[14:28] <xteejx> ksbajali: how did you do the update? what has slowed down? does anything else seem out of the ordinary? is compiz enabled?
[14:28] <yadid> good, ty
[14:28] <maD3-liNUx> hallo ..my compiz cannot use the wallpaper plugin on ibex ..can u help me??\
[14:28] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, np thanks - you had been helping me a lot other times anyway.
[14:28] <omegamormegil> Jack_Sparrow:  If you can't download it, and don't want to use torrents, use shipit.  https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[14:29] <VSpike> Jack_Sparrow: what about jigdo?
[14:29] <xteejx> note: shipit takes 4-6 weeks for delivery
[14:29] <maD3-liNUx> my ibex is upgrading from heron
[14:29] <ksbalaji> after a system update, the system has considerably slowed down. Please help
[14:29] <rakesh> rocky
[14:29] <adub> what are some cool web applications i can stick on my apache server currently i have base, twiki, and zoneminder installed????
[14:29] <xteejx> ksbajali: Can you answer the above questions to help resolve the problem please?
[14:29] <rakesh> hello i need some help to configure my desktop
[14:29] <ubuntu> hello I'm in the live CD and i'd like to know if all peripherals are recognized correcly before to install ubuntu on Asus Laptop x53sr... what i have to do?
[14:29] <Juliada> maD3-liNUx: maybe it is worth to do a clean install
[14:30] <phpwutz> heyo, my OpenOffice isn't working anymore since an update about 1 week ago. I read many people had this issue. Are there any fixes already?
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow> omegamormegil I can get the iso, just frustrated at how many people waste time trying those.  I am more suspect of our isp's fouling them up
[14:30] <znik> how can i upgrade my kernel from 2.6.24-21-generic to 2.6.27
[14:30] <rakesh> hey help to configure my desktop
[14:30] <Neff> phpwutz: thanks for your reply! I tried Rhythmbox and it worked but I'm a bit disappointed because I wanted to use only one media player for all my radio-podcasting and music and Rhythmbox doesn't manage video podcasts. I even tried other solutions like songbird and amarok, but they were no use. Amarok is not a gnome app and songbird seems unable to play real media streams... I know that I'm a bit sofisticated maybe ;) but I want to hope :D
[14:30] <xteejx> znik: upgrade to Intrepid
[14:30] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, just try them out, like keyboard, touchpad and sound
[14:30] <znik> xteejx does that have kernel 2.6.27 ?
[14:31] <Juliada> znik: or you can go to www.kernel.org and compile yourself
[14:31] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: then cant help you, you could try another kernel
[14:31] <maD3-liNUx> i have to try ..completly remove the compiz package ...an re-install them ..but change anything??
[14:31] <allquixotic> Heya! mp3 support in libshout is broken on Ubuntu 8.10 because of a one-line patch in 2.2.2-4: if(mh->layer != 2 || mh->layer != 1) was checked in, instead of just if(mh->layer != 2). It's now saying basically, if(false), because no integer equals 2 and 1 at the same time. So it never decodes mp3. Can 2.2.2-5 (currently Jaunty) be pushed to intrepid? It reverts this patch.
[14:31] <xteejx> ubuntu: Note that LiveCDs are usually about 1-2 months old, installing and then doing all updates should solve any hardware problems as the kernel has changed twice since the liveCD build.
[14:31] <dan_> I am using squid 3 on ubuntu 8.10. I am using squid_ldap_auth to authenticate users and log access to access.log. I want transparent authentication, I do not want users prompted for username/password everytime they fire up a web browser, is this possible?
[14:31] <DarkKnight> hey while installing my new printer i dont seem to be seeing my printer version...but i do see other versions
[14:31] <Pici> allquixotic: Log a bug for the package.
[14:31] <rakesh> hey plss help mee
[14:31] <Pici> !bugs | allquixotic
[14:31] <xteejx> allquitoxic: Report as bug and see #ubuntu-bugs
[14:32] <Pici> !ask | rakesh
[14:32] <phpwutz> @Neff i can understand that you want only 1 player, but unless there comes an all-in-one-solution that handles absolutely everything you may have to use multiple players. i know thats kinda disappointing, but i didnt find another way for myself...maybe someone else can help you better
[14:32] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, I've noticed a lot of errors occuring from my wireless drivers but I am not using wireless. Is there a chance that somehow whilst wireless isn't being used to connect to the internet the drivers are somehow causing my laptop to lock up?
[14:32] <xteejx> Neff: I tend to use VLC and ubuntu-restricted-extras, it usually comes with everything you need
[14:32] <rakesh> i need to add some desktop applets
[14:33] <allquixotic> xteejx, Pici: there have been several bugs about it; I think my question is more related to release management. The problem and the fix are both Ubuntu packages now; the request would be to have libshout 2.2.2-5 pulled from jaunty into intrepid. But if it's too late in the post-release cycle....
[14:33] <Joerie> I'm new to linux and have ubuntu 8.04 now, and having graphic driver problems. Anyone experienced with that?
[14:33] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: well it shouldnt.
[14:33] <Shihan> hi guys... im kinda in a bit of a broken state...i've tried to install a .deb file and now it wont uninstall or install... tried to force its removal and purge it and so forth.. but im kinda getting nowhere... any suggestions?
[14:33] <Rainarrow> Joerie, what video card do you have?
[14:33] <alarm> hello. i got a problem and i dont know where i should refer about it (xorg , ubuntu, here ? ) . After (although i am not exactly sure about it) installing the new kernel  2.6.24-22-generic on my ubuntu system 8.04. i noticed a huge amount of cpu usage. Every time i scroll in firefox on a page. xorg gets a cpu usage likr 60 to 100% , and everything freezes for a few seconds .
[14:33] <Pici> allquixotic: Request a backport then: take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#How%20to%20request%20new%20packages
[14:33] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: but try use older kernel first
[14:33] <phpwutz> @Shihan error message could help a lot ;)
[14:33] <xteejx> allquixotic: You can try and speak to backports about getting it backported maybe? If there aren't too many dependency issues they should do it
[14:33] <Joerie> Intel GMA 245 (intern, on a laptop)
[14:33] <maD3-liNUx> Juliada: have u work compiz with wallpaper plugin on ibex??
[14:34] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, I had problems with heron thus switched back to gutsy and am now having problems with intrepid
[14:34] <rakesh> how to mount ntfs drives
[14:34] <xteejx> pici: lol you're good :)
[14:34] <znik> is it OK if i upgrade my kernel with this command: # apt-get install kernel-image-<IP_ADDRESS>
[14:34] <allquixotic> Pici: thanks
[14:34] <phpwutz> @rakesh look up /etc/fstab
[14:34] <Juliada> maD3-liNUx: no... I have turned off Compiz because it has caused many crashes...
[14:34] <xteejx> znik: Not advisable
[14:34] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: you could try acpi=off when booting next time
[14:34] <allquixotic> xteejx: No dependency issues. It's a single line of code. 2.2.2-4 deliberately and completely breaks half of libshout's functionality. 2.2.2-5 fixes it.
[14:34] <znik> xteejx then how should i ?
[14:35] <ksbalaji> xteejx, just as usual - using adept manager for a full update. Only difference is, this time after a long gap, i had a new upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-22-generic
[14:35] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, after heron wireless was active whilst ethernet was in use unlike gutsy which prevent the use of both
[14:35] <allquixotic> xteejx: It's a simple logic error that wasn't QA'ed at all. It's rather bothersome that such a change even got *committed*.
[14:35] <smnab> does any one know whether theoretically, ubuntu 64 bit would have higher performance than 32 bit out of the box? and why?
[14:35] <ubuntu> so if i have understud there'is no way to check before if hardware is supported installing ubuntu
[14:35] <xteejx> allquix: OK, then speak to backports as stated above and request it to be pulled from jaunty into the backports :)
[14:35] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, I can manually disable the wireless device as my laptop includes a hardware switch for it
[14:35] <xteejx> znik: upgrade to intrepid - sudo update-manager -d
[14:36] <Rainarrow> Joerie, I've never heard about GMA 245. are you sure you got the model right? Try lspci|grep -i GMA to see what's being reported
[14:36] <simplexio> BridgeInhabitant: then try that, and because we are talking laptop check temperatures
[14:36] <Juliada> rakesh: install ntfs-config
[14:36] <maD3-liNUx> juliada: i have crashed too ..but after updating the compiz package never crashed again..
[14:36] <Shihan> phpwutz: errors from the broken package, http://paste.ubuntu.com/79842/
[14:37] <silfur> smnab: 64 bit only allows for memory to be loaded, and is better for some cryptography stuff
[14:37] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, it'll be the same system as on the LiveCD after you install it
[14:37] <rakesh> hey any one know how to configure desktop as in mac os
[14:37] <Juliada> maD3-liNUx: mine crashes every time... I guess I have to live without it...
[14:37] <alarm> any suggestions ?
[14:37] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, just try out as many hardware as possible in the LiveCD environment to see if it's working
[14:37] <ksbalaji> xteejx, It takes time for me to wait to see what I have typed. My compiz works -albeit slowly! Any window shows up after 15 seconds after click.
[14:37] <simplexio> smnab: 64bit isnt woth of hassle if you dont have more than 4G RAM is quite popular opinion
[14:37] <rakesh> hey any one know how to configure desktop as in mac os
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> cairo-dock with the osx theme for one
[14:38] <smnab> simplexio: thanks for the information
[14:38] <dimebar> rakesh: go to gnome-look.org and find a theme
[14:38] <rakesh> can we have messenger so that we can have all the features of yahoo video and audio chatting
[14:38] <smnab> rakesh: try avant window navigator for the dock
[14:38] <rakesh> @dimebar how to open
[14:38] <omegamormegil> rakesh:  you need to be more specific.  Google avant window navigator
[14:38] <silfur> smnab: check this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit

[14:39] <rakesh> hey  like in mac os dude at the bottom of the desktop
[14:39] <dan_> I am using squid 3 on ubuntu 8.10. I am using squid_ldap_auth to authenticate users and log access to access.log. I want transparent authentication, I do not want users prompted for username/password everytime they fire up a web browser, is this possible?
[14:39] <rakesh> how to install new themes
[14:39] <ed0n0n> I am trying to use a CanoScan N670U scanner with xsane. It is not detected. I read it should work out of the box. What am I doing wrong? Do u know how to setup scanners in Ubuntu Hardy?
[14:39] <jxander> I have an external drive with a ntfs partition on it, connected through usb on an intrepid x86 xfce env, but i cannot delete folders... are there any settings i'm missing?
[14:40] <smnab> rakesh: yes, use avant window navigator for the "dock" (the thing is called a dock) at the bottom of the desktop
[14:40] <Appiah> jxander: are you using ntfs or ntfs-3g?
[14:40] <jrib> allquixotic: there are no libshout bugs open in launchpad?
[14:40] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, you've got quite generic(that is, not rarely seen) hardware. I've not seen your ethernet controller before, but other things should work well
[14:40] <BridgeInhabitant> simplexio, the acpi temperature stays around 42 degrees C, I even installed the sensors-applet to actively monitor it
[14:41] <jxander> Appiah: whatever came with Ubuntu 8.10 + updates...
[14:41] <maD3-liNUx> !start
[14:41] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, does your laptop come with a webcam or something?
[14:41] <Appiah> jxander: does not say me anything
[14:41] <Appiah> mind looking jxander ?
[14:41] <jxander> Appiah: how do i find out?
[14:41] <Appiah> type "mount" in a terminal
[14:41] <jxander> Appiah: check the packages?
[14:41] <Appiah> you can see what filesystem its mounted with
[14:41] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, but I don't the ethernet controller would pose a problem for you
[14:41] <jxander> Appiah: oh... sure :)
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander plug the drive into a windows box and properly remove it to  clear the lock
[14:42] <omegamormegil> ubottu:  The package is avant-window-navigator, not awn.  It is in intrepid.
[14:42] <jxander> Jack_Sparrow: i can delete files, but not folders... still lock problem?
[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander of you can force mount the drive
[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander delete files but not folders..  how odd
[14:42] <Pici> !is a bot | omegamormegil
[14:42] <maxb> jxander: cannot delete *any* folder, or cannot delete a few specific folders?
[14:42] <DarkKnight> hey i can't D2568 in my printer types
[14:42] <Rainarrow> Jack_Sparrow, I think it may be the NTFS ACL?
[14:42] <allquixotic> jrib: Was that a question or a statement?
[14:42] <mee> can anyone tell me how to shrink the windows partition so i can take up more room for ubuntu?
[14:43] <mib_qepzkt> hello all
[14:43] <jxander> maxb: i'll try that
[14:43] <Rainarrow> mee, use gparted
[14:43] <omegamormegil> Oh.
[14:43] <ksbalaji> xteejx, listening? - Hope I am not too slow.
[14:43] <mee> ok thanks
[14:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Rainarrow still sleepy
[14:43] <jrib> allquixotic: both really.  You seem to have affirmed before that there were bugs open about it, but I don't find any.  Can you link to them?
[14:43] <Juliada> mee: you have to use Acronis disk Director Suit or any other program... I guess..
[14:43] <ubuntu> Rainarrow: yes it have also a cam
[14:43] <tomcheng76> mee: backup, defragment, burn gparted live iso, shrink, chkdisk
[14:43] <mib_qepzkt> Could someone help me with an installation issue?
[14:44] <mee> juliada will gparted work?
[14:44] <Jeruvy> Juliada: no gparted
[14:44] <jxander> Appiah: /dev/sdb1 on /media/Extern type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)
[14:44] <allquixotic> jrib: The bug was filed against jaunty, evaluated, a fix proposed, and a fix committed -- to jaunty only.
[14:44] <kelli> any one use pidgin?
[14:44] <jrib> allquixotic: link?
[14:44] <phpwutz> yep
[14:44] <Juliada> mee: gparted will work
[14:44] <phpwutz> @kelli, yep
[14:44] <Rainarrow> kelli, I use pidgin on a daily basis
[14:44] <mee> tomcheng76, normal gparted wont work?
[14:44] <ahab> in 8.10 where is my jre?  nothing in "whereis java" works.
[14:45] <ed0n0n> can anyone help me configuring Sane?
[14:45] <kelli> phpwutz, ho do i swap pics?
[14:45] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, you should be able to try out your webcam use "luvcview" program.
[14:45] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, but basically Ubuntu should work well on your machine
[14:45] <allquixotic> jrib: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/libshout/2.2.2-5
[14:45] <ubuntu> Rainarrow: why you think that ethernet may be a problem?
[14:45] <tomcheng76> mee: the ntfs drive should not be mounted, the best is to run liveCD
[14:45] <allquixotic> jrib: Please look at the changelog for 2.2.2-5
[14:45] <jxander> maxb: looks like i can create folders and then delete them... now what :-s?
[14:46] <phpwutz> @kelli: go to "Accounts-[your Account]->edit Account"
[14:46] <Rainarrow> ubuntu, I just said I haven't seen it before, and I also said I DON'T think it'll be problematic
[14:46] <maxb> Do the problem folders look like odd windows-internal ones? What's the precise error if you try to "rmdir" one from the command line?
[14:46] <ubuntu> Rainarrow: ok thanks
[14:47] <mib_qepzkt> I've installed Ubuntu on an intel box. The install went fine, but when the login screen displays, it won't accept any input from my USB Mouse or keyboard
[14:47] <xteejx> ubuntu: You can check the Ubuntu Hardware Compatability Database. But 95% of hardware is supported with proprietary or open source drivers, and if its not I'm damn sure we can get them into the next release for you :)
[14:47] <phpwutz> @kelli then active the checkbox that says "use buddy icon" and select your pic :) (sorry if the menu items aren't called exactly like that, i'm on german ubuntu ;))
[14:47] <ed0n0n> can anyone help me configuring Sane? I get no devices available when using xsane. The support for my "CanoScan N670U/N676U/LiDE20" is Complete as it is says at www.sane-project.com. Can you help please?
[14:47] <smnab> mib_qepzkt: That is a strange problem, USB keyboards and mice worked fine out of the box for me always. what model was it? have you tried googling it?
[14:48] <mib_qepzkt> yes I did. Not much help. It's an Acer Aspire box
[14:48] <Joerie> Rainarrow: i've just tried to access the terminal but the lower part of my screen is frozen now xD (when returning) Not really sure what's happened here ...
[14:48] <jxander> maxb: directory not empty... but it's empty... i tried with sudo too, same thing
[14:48] <Jeruvy> mib_qepzkt: use a ps/2 keyboard and mouse to review the logs, is it a problem with lack of drivers or is it a problem with the usb port/hub?
[14:48] <jrib> allquixotic: I see, it's a screwy debian patch
[14:48] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander delete files but not folders..  how odd..  question can you make a folder and delete it?
[14:48] <mib_qepzkt> Not sure. I can try that. Thanks for the help
[14:49] <allquixotic> jrib: I wasn't aware that it was pulled in from Debian.
[14:49] <mib_qepzkt> Where do I view the logs. I'm a Linux newbie.
[14:49] <jxander> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[14:49] <ubuntu> last question: I'm still in live CD and i have tryied audio but i can't ear nothing, its normal?
[14:49] <maxb> jxander: Hmm, I was guessing "Operation not supported", which I've seen before trying to delete a reparse point. I guess you're going to have to get the drive into a windows box and chkdsk it.
[14:49] <Rainarrow> Joerie, you meant the lower panel? or the lower half of your screen
[14:49] <Jeruvy> mib_qepzkt: /var/log
[14:49] <olskolirc> hey guys how do I clear my java cache on Hardy please?
[14:49] <allquixotic> jrib: Either way, if you look at the actual change, it's.... testing if an integer (the layer of the MPEG stream) is equal to both 2 and 1 at the same time, which is never true. So the function silently exits.
[14:49] <ShAd`> hi
[14:49] <maD3-liNUx> @mib_qepzkt: /var/log
[14:49] <allquixotic> jrib: The lack of QA on that -- both from Debian and Ubuntu -- is scary.
[14:49] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander I am thinking the folder you are trying to delete is not empty
[14:50] <jxander> maxb: thanks... i'll try that...
[14:50] <mib_qepzkt> Thanks.
[14:50] <Juliada> jxander: rm -rf /path/to/directory try this
[14:50] <Asako> man, 8.10 is really nice
[14:50] <jxander> Jack_Sparrow: but looks empty... no hidden files...
[14:50] <Joerie> lower half of my sscreen; i can refresh is when switching workspaces
[14:50] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander see julia above
[14:50] <jxander> Juliada: trying right now
[14:50] <e-head> good morning
[14:50] <maD3-liNUx> Asako: I agreed:)
[14:50] <ubuntu> okok
[14:50] <olskolirc> hey guys how do I clear my java cache on Hardy please? anyone?
[14:50] <e-head> Anyone have mono running?
[14:50] <ubuntu> i'm going on
[14:50] <Joerie> Really weird effect...
[14:51] <maD3-liNUx> goog night e-head
[14:51] <allquixotic> jrib: The impact is that any application using libshout3 to stream MP3 data will silently fail. We discovered this while developing mpd 0.14, but it directly impacts the version of Darkice on Intrepid, and possibly others.
[14:51] <jxander> Juliada: still, not empty problem :(
[14:51] <tomcheng76> olskolirc: Java control panel ??
[14:51] <jxander> well, i'll try the windows stuff...
[14:51] <ccnix> good evenning
[14:51] <maD3-liNUx> jxander: can i know what your problem??
[14:52] <Shihan> is there anyway to completely destroy the remnants of a package in an inconsistent state?
[14:52] <ksbalaji> xteejx, I have envyng installed. Do I have to rinstall it again for better speedd?
[14:52] <jrib> allquixotic: it's actually always true, but that's the problem I guess.  n != 1 OR n != 2  will always evaluate true.  It's a debian package without ubuntu modifications, but the bug comes in from a debian patch, it's in debian/patches/1004_allow_mpeg_layer_III.patch .  I guess backports is the way to go here
[14:52] <Joerie> Rainarrow: anyway it was a typo, i meant Intel GMA 945...
[14:52] <olskolirc> I guess tomcheng76  how do I get to it please
[14:52] <Rainarrow> Joerie, lol, 945 is fairly common
[14:52] <allquixotic> jrib: If it's backported, won't a user have to enable the ubuntu-backports repository to get it?
[14:52] <kman82> hi all, I am off on holiday tomorrow, at the very least I realised I want to fall back on dial up (worst case scenario) but then I realised I can't even remember how to set it up
[14:52] <Rainarrow> Joerie, it took me a googleing to confirm that there's no GMA 245, lol
[14:53] <kman82> I've read http://www.ubuntugeek.com/setting-up-dial-up-connection-in-ubuntu.html but is doesn't reflect changes in 8.10
[14:53] <kman82> So, how can I check my laptop modem is supported in 8.10, and do a test?
[14:53] <somethingclever> I have 512 of ram in my computer, but sysinfo only shows 492! how do i make it see all 512?
[14:53] <jxander> maD3-liNUx: I cannot delete folders on a ntfs partition from an external drive connected through usb...
[14:53] <jrib> !sru | allquixotic
[14:53] <ahab> in 8.10 where is my jre?  nothing in "whereis java" or "which java" works.
[14:53] <kman82> somethingclever, shared graphics card memory
[14:53] <Joerie> Rainarrow, just a mall typo :)
[14:53] <allquixotic> jrib: I was thinking a SRU, because (a) it's a serious regression, (b) the fix is obvious and extremely localized, (c) we already have 2.2.2-5 in jaunty with the fix
[14:53] <Jeruvy> kman82; boot from the livecd
[14:54] <jrib> allquixotic: I don't think it fits in with that criteria, but you can try asking #ubuntu-motu and file the bug of course.  It's not up to me in the end :)
[14:54] <Joerie> Rainarrow, if 945 is fairly common, are the graphic driver problems as well?
[14:54] <somethingclever> kman82, damn, can i turn the shared memory off?
[14:54] <Rainarrow> Joerie, ok what problem do you have with it?
[14:54] <kman82> yeah? and then what, it will show me if my modem is supported?
[14:54] <kman82> somethingclever, if you do, you won't have a screen
[14:54] <maD3-liNUx> jxander: meybe u can use "sudo" when delete the folder
[14:54] <kman82> Jeruvy, what will I see in livecd to help me with modem?
[14:54] <Joerie> Rainarrow, basicly, i have the same problems i would have when installing a new copy of windows (any version) an not yet installing graphic drivers...
[14:54] <somethingclever> kman82, Feck, alright, thanks for the quick answer
[14:54] <kman82> somethingclever, no worries, happy linuxing
[14:54] <Jeruvy> kman: yeah, and you can test it too...
[14:54] <aoupi> hi, How can I change amaroks title from "Amarok - $song" to just "$song", I'm using gnome
[14:55] <Juliada> jxander: maybe there is a problem with read/write privileges... You can access, but cannot delete...
[14:55] <PeskyJ> how can I find out what a process in D state is waiting on?
[14:55] <allquixotic> jrib: Ok, I'll report a bug.
[14:55] <kman82> Jeruvy, can't I just install whatever tools it uses on live to my installed setup?
[14:55] <Rainarrow> Joerie, you meant you don't have access to hi-resolutions?
[14:55] <jrib> allquixotic: just cite the debian bug 490070
[14:55] <jxander> Juliada: where do i check for that?
[14:55] <Joerie> That i do
[14:55] <Jeruvy> kman82: why would you?
[14:55] <kman82> Jeruvy, because, if it works I am going to have to do that anyway
[14:55] <maD3-liNUx> jxander: u can try this command ls -l
[14:56] <Joerie> But when changing anything graphical - from scrolling to playting a game - the screen hesitates & shakes
[14:56] <kman82> Jeruvy, what? I want to access my modem on holiday to get emails, I don't want to use livecd
[14:56] <ksbalaji> xteejx, ?
[14:56] <kman82> so I want ot setup my modem, normally. what is hard to understand about that?
[14:56] <Joerie> And now, the lower part of my screen is in a frozen state, pretty annoying ^
[14:56] <kman82> am I missing something?
[14:56] <maD3-liNUx> jxander: or u can use this command when deleted "sudo rm -rf /path/to/directory" ..?
[14:56] <Jeruvy> kman82: what is your question....seems you have a rant about something :)
[14:56] <jxander> maD3-liNUx: already tried that
[14:57] <Juliada> jxander: type "mount" in a terminal
[14:57] <kman82> Jeruvy, you answered me without reading my question? ok, well don't feel you have to talk to me anymore, thanks anyway
[14:57] <Rainarrow> Joerie, first save any opened document you have, then press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill your X, should get rid of your freezing problem
[14:57] <kman82> Anyone else - I have read http://www.ubuntugeek.com/setting-up-dial-up-connection-in-ubuntu.html and also used efax to see if my modem is supported on 8.10 - no dice
[14:58] <jxander> Juliada: i have all the rights on those dirs... drwxrwxrwx
[14:58] <Jeruvy> kman82: your right I obviously can't help you.
[14:58] <jxander> Juliada: /dev/sdb1 on /media/Extern type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)
[14:58] <kman82> Jeruvy, get lost, I ask how to get setup a modem connection (and test) you say test in live, I say, yeah, but can't I test outside of live, and you think I have a rant, find someone else to troll.
[14:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Juliada are they using fuseblk instead of ntfs-3g these days?
[14:59] <maD3-liNUx> jxander: have u try to re-plug the external harddisk ??
[15:00] <jxander> maD3-liNUx: yes... but i might need to try on a windows machine though
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 Please be polite or leave
[15:00] <Joerie> Rainarrow, its solved, thanks
[15:00] <Joerie> (the freezing problem)
[15:01] <UnknownUser56> !act
[15:01] <Rainarrow> Joerie, nice to know that, do you know which graphic driver are you using?
[15:01] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 true hardware modems have never been an issue with any linux, only those low end winmodems
[15:02] <ksbalaji> After a long gap, I updated to Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-22-generic using adept-manager, full upgrade.  Now the system has considerably slowed down. Compiz works but slowly.Please help.
[15:02] <no89> is it possible to set up nfs on GUI?
[15:02] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, yeah, I recall that painful era - but I never had to setup a laptop, and it was... 2000 when I got ADSL? 2001? fuzzy times :)
[15:02] <Juliada> Jack_Sparrow: ubuntu sees ntfs partition as fuseblk
[15:02] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I did lspci and there is no modem listed
[15:02] <ed0n0n> how can I check device permissions on a device?
[15:02] <Joerie> Have no idea, freshly installed Ubuntu and never used ubuntu/any other linux before...
[15:02] <fosco_> ed0n0n: ls -l /dev/device
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 did you say it worked running the livecd?
[15:03] <ed0n0n> fosco, cheers ;)
[15:03] <didrik> Hey, can anyone help me set up my keyboard setup?
[15:03] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I didn't boot into livecd -  was curious - what tool does livecd use? can't I just run it / install it?
[15:03] <kman82> I don't have a livecd here, I did the saintly thing and gave it to someone
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 so you have not had it work yet?
[15:04] <jrib> allquixotic: I didn't realize all 2.2.2-5 did was revert the patch (I incorrectly assumed it had other changes).  In that case, I agree with you :)
[15:04] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 you should have made a copy for yourself or saved an iso of it
[15:04] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, no, I followed http://www.ubuntugeek.com/setting-up-dial-up-connection-in-ubuntu.html << but that interface doesn't exist, I tried efax, and wvdial
[15:04] <no89> could anyone tell me if it is possible to set up nfs on GUI?
[15:04] <Juliada> jxander: have you tried to delete directory manually?
[15:04] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I have the iso, I am just thinking - easier to install this tool that livecd uses
[15:04] <mikearthur|work> is ldd installed by default on Ubuntu?
[15:04] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 none of those will work if the os doesnt see your modem
[15:04] <xnv> Jack_Sparrow: I agree with kman82... Why would you need a LiveCD?
[15:05] <kman82> ok, booting laptop into livecd, let's see the magic tool! :-)
[15:05] <ed0n0n> how do I mount a USB device in from /dev/bus/usb ?
[15:05] <didrik> Can anyone help me with some keyboard problems? :)
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> xnv earlier his unclear writing suggested that it did work on livecd and he wanted to move that config to his hd install
[15:06] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, ok, I can config it probably, I just wanted to know what apps it uses, to erm, set it up... or is it automagic?
[15:06] <rlt> !ask | ddgoose
[15:06] <rlt> !ask | didrik
[15:06] <anne> hello
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !modem
[15:06] <rlt> ddgoose: (sorry, i fail at nick completion)
[15:06] <nepsys> any one can tell me who can join #ubuntu and how
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow> nepsys you are here
[15:06] <rlt> nepsys: you're in #ubuntu ;). Anyone can join it.
[15:06] <jrib> nepsys: anyone, using an irc client
[15:06] <maD3-liNUx> ed0n0n: usb device on ubuntu its automaticaly mount brow
[15:06] <jxander> Juliada: how do you mean manually?
[15:06] <anne> is pulseaudio necessary under 8.04, because i have problem with my sound card, and i think problem is pulseaudio
[15:07] <Joerie> Rainarrow, when trying to see my drivers, it says "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system"
[15:07] <Juliada> jxander: ok... f you cd to the diectory, and type "ls," what does it say?
[15:07] <nepsys> yup but chanserv sayin , temporary access
[15:08] <Rainarrow> Joerie, press Alt+F2 and type "gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" without the quote and press ENTER
[15:08] <rlt> nepsys: oh! Yeah, if you're using a web proxy, you'll get redirected to a different channel, then invited to #ubuntu by the bot
[15:08] <shaka2> hi
[15:08] <maD3-liNUx> shaka2: hii too:)
[15:08] <didrik> Even though I have set my keyboard to danish, it just won't change it. Still english. Any ideas?
[15:08] <Rainarrow> Joerie, this should open your configuration file for X, look for "Section "Device"" in it
[15:08] <shaka2> I was wonder if someone could help me with the problems I'm having with my laptop and headphones
[15:08] <ed0n0n> maD3-liNUx: Im trying to use my USB scanner "CanonScan N670", it is not detected properly
[15:08] <jxander> Juliada: drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 Dec  3 15:51
[15:08] <shaka2> Using the forum I've half fixed the problem
[15:09] <shaka2> the headphones work now
[15:09] <shaka2> but I can't mute the front speakers
[15:09] <Rainarrow> Joerie, you should see something like "Driver "intel"" in the Section labeled "Devices"
[15:09] <ksbalaji> After a long gap, I updated to Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-22-generic using adept-manager, full upgrade.  Now the system has considerably slowed down. Compiz works but slowly.Please help.
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> shaka2 /j #alsa
[15:09] <shaka2> ok
[15:09] <jxander> Juliada: i can rename the folder though... but still, can't be deleted
[15:10] <Joerie> The only think the "Devices" section holds is the Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[15:10] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I am in live CD now on laptop - I also have that link you sent open, what am I looking for in livecd to see if modem 'detected'
[15:10] <rohdef> I got my Huawai E220 mobile modem to work mostly with the networkmanager, but how do I make it use my pin-code correctly?
[15:10] <abracadabra_> hi, how can i know what's the time of my linux shell server?
[15:10] <shaka2> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[15:10] <shiMMer> any1 use fluxbox here?
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:10] <maD3-liNUx> ed0n0n: i'm sorry i guest the usb device is flashdrive:D
[15:10] <nepsys> thanks
[15:10] <nepsys> i will ...i am open source lover
[15:10] <ohmygod> my audio card doesn't work now , how to check it? It's playing when I logon to desktop
[15:10] <rlt> abracadabra_: issue the "date" command.
[15:10] <Juliada> jxander: from the directory that you want to delete type sudo -s, then type your password, and then rm -rf /path/to/the/directory
[15:10] <abracadabra_> ok
[15:11] <maD3-liNUx> 0ed0n0n: can u type this command "lsusb" on the terminal
[15:11] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I am in livecd - is there a tool or something that shows modem? I ran wvdial, but of course I could run that outside of livecd - same result
[15:11] <Frogging101> How do you reinstall ubuntu 8.10
[15:11] <rohdef> where do I suggest a setup for the manager, so the maintainers can add it?
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 just to verify, the modem was not autodetected in the live cd correct
[15:12] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, I don't know - I wan to know how to find out if it is autodetected
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 lspci ?
[15:12] <ksbalaji> I updated to kernel 2.6.24-22-generic using adept-manager.  Now the system has slowed down. Compiz is slow. Help.
[15:12] <ohmygod> hello? who can tell me, how to check my sound card?
[15:12] <mikearthur|work> is ldd installed by default on Ubuntu?
[15:12] <Armada> I'm trying to decrypt a file, how can I utilize the phyton-crypto package?
[15:12] <Frogging101> How do you reinstall ubuntu 8.10? it is really broken
[15:12] <cast> Armada: by writing a python program.
[15:13] <Rainarrow> Joerie, do a "glxinfo|grep render"
[15:13] <shiMMer> jack::
[15:13] <cast> Frogging101: with an install cd, surely
[15:13] <Eldemon> can someone help me with a problem in wine-doors?
[15:13] <rohdef> kman82, what kind of modem (entered after you asked)
[15:13] <cast> ksbalaji: are you still using accelerated video?
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Frogging101 drop in the cd and boot, if you have a sep /home it works better
[15:13] <ed0n0n> maD3-liNUx: np. Thanks anyway
[15:13] <kman82> rohdef, no idea - in laptop (intel chipset)
[15:13] <ksbalaji> How to find what is slowing down my system please?
[15:13] <Frogging101> cast: do you have to repartition again? and will it uninstall the old one?
[15:13] <maD3-liNUx> ed0n0n: u r welcome
[15:14] <ksbalaji> cast, what is accelerated video?
[15:14] <cast> Frogging101: up to you,
[15:14] <maD3-liNUx> Eldemon: may i can help u??
[15:14] <ohmygod> ksbalaji, u can use 'top'
[15:14] <rohdef> kman82, ah ok, I don't know anything about those, just that I found a lot of solutions for mine, so maybe I could be lucky and could help for once :p
[15:14] <AlexMax> Hi there.  I notice that apache's configuration files are split up six ways to sunday.  How 'automatic' is apache's configuration reading?  Like, if I put in a .conf file into /etc/apache2/mods-enabled, will it be read by apache?  Or do I need to modify something to tell apache to look for an extra conf file?
[15:14] <kman82> I see nothing modemy in lspci... audio device intel 'high definition audio controller' and a SMBus COntroller
[15:14] <Rainarrow> Frogging101, there's should be a step of installation where it ask you to format your partitions
[15:14] <kman82> nothing modemy though
[15:15] <Eldemon> maD3-liNUx:  yes, look http://rafb.net/p/4pIcC346.html
[15:15] <Rainarrow> Frogging101, which would wipe out the original installation, effectively "uninstall" it
[15:15] <Armada> Cast: Any other way that doesn't involve me learning phyton?
[15:15] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, wvdial says no /dev/modem - if that is validation enough - and lspci seems to have nothing modemy
[15:16] <Armada> *python
[15:16] <IceWind> AlexMax: it reads it automagically
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 you will need to look into the linmodem project
[15:16] <ptym3k> ya des francais ici??
[15:16] <AlexMax> IceWind: Awesome thanks
[15:16] <kman82> ill run scan modem, yeah like you say
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !fr
[15:16] <jrib> Armada: not if you want to use python-crypto... you probably want to be more specific about what you are trying to do
[15:16] <kman82> Jack_Sparrow, so livecd waste of time ;-) back into real world
[15:16] <usamahashimi> Hello everyone!
[15:16] <IceWind> AlexMax: don't forget to put also the .load if you need to load a module.
[15:16] <maD3-liNUx> Eldemon: ups.. sorry i can't open the site ..because my bandwidth it's limited :D can u tell what's is your problem:D
[15:17] <cast> Armada: where did this file come from, what encrypted it?
[15:17] <allquixotic> jrib: How do I use the "nominate for release" feature?
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> kman82 you were the one that brought it up and were unclear in the first place... Not a waste of time to verify what you said earlier was wrong
[15:17] <snek> IceWind / AlexMax: i prefer putting the module in mods-available and then using a2enmod to enabled it.. although i guess that's just a symlink to mods-enabled?
[15:17] <DJones> !ch > DJones
[15:17] <Armada> jrib: I'm trying to decrypt a file using the XOR encryption cast: Probably CryptIt1.3
[15:17] <jrib> allquixotic: don't know
[15:18] <madsj> how do I get to run a latin-1 terminal ?
[15:18] <IceWind> snek: That is correct, the a2enmod creates the symlink
[15:18] <PeskyJ> I'm logged in remotely, how can I set it to run an X program on th elocal display from the command line?
[15:18] <madsj> setting LC_ALL=LOCALE=en_US.latin1 doesn't help ...
[15:18] <Eldemon> maD3-liNUx: I have a problem in time to install a new application in wine-doors
[15:18] <jrib> allquixotic: seems like you just click on nominate for release after filing the bug and select a release
[15:18] <snek> IceWind: aha ok, i just have a tendency to make the symlink wrong the first time systematically, so i taught myself to use a2enmod instead hahaha
[15:19] <cast> Armada: xor isn't a method of encryption. what else do you know?
[15:19] <lor_> I think someone deleted c:\wubi by mistake on this machine :( so now I cannot boot into ubunu through wubi.. any suggestion?
[15:19] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> ssh -C -X -l username remoteip
[15:19] <Eldemon> eg microsoft visual c++ runtime library
[15:19] <Armada> cast: It's a Stream encryption algorithm
[15:19] <n8tuser> lor_-> you meant you made the mistake of erasing them?
[15:19] <maD3-liNUx> Eldemon: do  u have installed on offline mode or online mode??
[15:19] <Armada> cast: XOR is a stream encryption algorithm
[15:20] <lor_> n8tuser, Unfortunatelly ye.
[15:20] <cast> Armada: no, it's not
[15:20] <dimonjik> Much more people than in kubuntu chanel
[15:20] <Eldemon> maD3-liNUx: online mode
[15:20] <lor_> n8tuser, I know that was really stupid... but I still have the c:\buntu dir and the big root.dsk file
[15:20] <n8tuser> lor_-> do the install once more, double click on the wubi.exe
[15:20] <ksbalaji> ohmygod, top says that xorg, xgl, init, pulseaudio  eat up time almost in that order. Can I kill any of these?
[15:20] <Joerie> Rainarrow: he doesn't take that command...
[15:20] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: so since I'm already logged in, will localhost work?
[15:20] <Chousuke> cast: it can be used with one-time pads. maybe that's what he means :/
[15:20] <Armada> cast: "CryptIt is designed to use conventional XOR encryption on keys that are the same size as the file to be encrypted."
[15:21] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> log off, and redo what i suggested
[15:21] <lor_> n8tuser, Won't that erase my virtual disk?
[15:21] <Rainarrow> Joerie, sorry, are you running GNOME or KDE?
[15:21] <Joerie> gnome
[15:21] <n8tuser> lor_-> it will, you can not easily recover those, and they are not designed to be recovered, wubi is kind of demo thing
[15:21] <olskolirc> anyone have express.paltalk.com voice working?
[15:21] <Chousuke> Armada: that shows that CryptIt makers don't know what they're doing :P
[15:22] <olskolirc> I hear my chat sounds but I can't hear who is on the microphone
[15:22] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: I'm connected by XMRPC, not ssh (from a windows machine)
[15:22] <n8tuser> lor_-> well maybe your windows have tools to recover.
[15:22] <cast> Armada: right, no need for a cryptolib to do a simple ^, do you have the key?
[15:22] <lor_> n8tuser, if I just back up the root.dsk file?
[15:22] <Armada> cast: sort of
[15:22] <smnab> ksbalaji: yes, you can kill all of these, but you will lose display, 3d effects, crash your system, and lose audio, in that order.
[15:22] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> i dont know then, you do i what i sugges then i can assist you
[15:22] <ohmygod> ksbalaji, yes,but I ctrl+alt+backspace is recommanded
[15:22] <dimonjik> Anybody from Ukraine here?
[15:22] <cast> Armada: sort of meaning?
[15:22] <lor_> n8tuser, are all c:\wubi alike? I've read about people cloning them on various machines
[15:22] <jrib> Armada: is this homework or something?
[15:23] <maD3-liNUx> i have the same problem to Eldemon, when i try to install Internet Explorer, installation it's working but when i try to execute it's not working
[15:23] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: I could log into a different linux box then ssh from there... kemmie try that
[15:23] <n8tuser> lor_-> i dont know
[15:23] <Armada> cast, jrin: no, just a puzzle
[15:23] <Shoopuf> does anyone know where PHP extensions are kept in Ubuntu command line?
[15:23] <lor_> sorry BBL
[15:23] <IceWind> snek AlexMax: but you are correct, the proper way to do it should be create the .conf and .load in mods-available and them activate them using a2enmod
[15:23] <cast> Armada: ahh, in that case you can solve it using your own skills ;)
[15:24] <Armada> cast: I could run CryptIt using wine
[15:24] <dimonjik> Can somebody advice some good DC++ client program?(sor for bad english)
[15:24] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: ok, that doesn't work.. it still says cannot open display
[15:25] <simplexio> PeskyJ: linuxdcpp ?
[15:25] <snek> dimonjik: linuxdcpp, it's in the repositories.. aptitude install linuxdcpp
[15:25] <Armada> cast: I just need a decrypter for the algorithm CryptIt uses so I can start solving it :p
[15:25] <dimonjik> Thanks guys :)
[15:25] <Eldemon> maD3-liNUx: the following message appears when trying to install Warning: MD5 sum not found
[15:25] <ksbalaji> ohmygod, Even if I restart, I have the problem -slow system. any solution?
[15:26] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> you ssh'ed in with -C -X options?
[15:26] <bobthemil> Can someone help me modify my xorg.conf file so that KDE will display in 1024x768? I tried following this guide, but I can't get it to work
[15:26] <TheMoron> balaji...upgrade your RAM
[15:26] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: yes.... does that mean the local display has been closed/disabled/killed?
[15:26] <snek> Ubuntu needs 512MB at least to run comfortably
[15:26] <TheMoron> Yes
[15:27] <ohmygod> ksbalaji, It's too hard to me
[15:27] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> type  echo $DISPLAY
[15:27] <amortvigil> hey when i create an /boot does it need to be the first partition?? and can it be a logical partition?
[15:27] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: nothing
[15:27] <cast> amortvigil: it can be any partition grub can access
[15:27] <n8tuser> PeskyJ->  try   xhost +remoteip
[15:28] <n8tuser> PeskyJ->  then retry to ssh with -C -X option or replace X with Y
[15:28] <Armada> cast: but if XOR isn't a encryption algorithm why is it listed as such in the python-crypto package?
[15:28] <Armada> cast: "Stream encryption algorithms: ARC4, simple XOR."
[15:28] <ksbalaji> TheMoron, I have 1GB RAM, quite working. Is it not enough?
[15:29] <snek> 1GB is plenty
[15:29] <Eldemon> maD3-liNUx:  i have to leave now. Thx very munch
[15:29] <TheMoron> Ya
[15:29] <cast> Armada: ARC4, iirc is just a reversed engineered version of RC4, is a stream cipher
[15:29] <amortvigil> cast: then why wont it work :| i installed it on /boot wich is /dev/sda5. after installation windows was still the boot partition.. after fixing that and reconfigureing grub again it still didnt want to work...
[15:29] <maD3-liNUx> Eldemon:ok ...see u sorry i can't help ..:)
[15:29] <cast> amortvigil: the means of encrypting with a stream cipher is to generate a keystream that you XOR with the plaintext
[15:29] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: even xhost +otherip says xhost: unable to open display "0.0"
[15:30] <cast> amortvigil: so...grub loaded?
[15:30] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> try  export DISPLAY=localhost:0; xhost +remoteip
[15:30] <snek> amortvigil: what error message do you get? does it at least say GRUB at the top of the screen?
[15:30] <amortvigil> cast: no it said to add a disk
[15:30] <kman82> ok, I've run the scanModem, I see CONEXANT and intel 82801G - which is that HDA device I saw earlier
[15:30] <TheMoron> Balaji You so some PHP stuff?
[15:30] <Armada> cast: Anyway, could you just tell me what program I need to use?
[15:31] <amortvigil> cast: grub didnt load
[15:31] <snek> amortvigil: what did load? windows?
[15:31] <cast> amortvigil: ahh hmm, well if grub didn't load then thats not a /boot location issue, but rather a grub-not-installed-in-right-place issue
[15:31] <amortvigil> snek: i just said i got the error to add a disk
[15:31] <maD3-liNUx> amortvigil : can u write the error message??
[15:31] <ksbalaji> TheMoron, How t find whether I have PHP stuff?
[15:31] <e-head> Hey, I'm having issues with locales.
[15:31] <simplexio> pwnt: what our trying to do ?
[15:31] <simplexio> pwnt: uups sorry
[15:32] <e-head> I have locales installed.  Doing a "sudo apt-get install locales" doesn't do anything.
[15:32] <simplexio> PeskyJ: what you are trying to do ?
[15:32] <snek> amortvigil: so it's a bios error your seeing? something like: unable to find operating system, replace disk and press a key to try again?
[15:32] <amortvigil> cast: i have selected in the advanced ubuntu installation to install grub on /dev/sda5 is that wrong?
[15:32] <lor_> back
[15:32] <e-head> Sorry, doing a " sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales" doesn't help, I meant to say
[15:32] <TheMoron> balaji: check your apache config
[15:32] <PeskyJ> simplexio: I'm trying to figure out why the local display is dead and not responding
[15:32] <incepator> hi
[15:32] <bobthemil> Can anyone help me get the r128 drivers to properly work? They don't quite seem to be working properly
[15:32] <amortvigil> snek: ubuntu is installed on this pc before its bios is never updated
[15:33] <saml> how can I encrypt a file with a password?
[15:33] <snek> amortvigil: that's not what i'm asking..
[15:33] <PeskyJ> simplexio: it ran screensaver then never woke up, but everything is still running
[15:33] <lor_> anyone using wubi?
[15:33] <amortvigil> snek: will yea becus if notyhing has changed in grub it cant be an error isnt it?
[15:33] <n8tuser> saml-> did you google for a howto? several ways,
[15:33] <amortvigil> grub // bios
[15:33] <maD3-liNUx> lor: no ..
[15:33] <simplexio> PeskyJ: tried kill screensaver ?
[15:34] <bobthemil> I ran sudo aptitiude install xserver-xorg-video-r128
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> lor_ if the wubi fake partion/file has been deleted than be thankful it didnt trash your ntfs windows install
[15:34] <snek> amortvigil: i don't mean there is an error in the bios.... i mean, the bios is showing the error.. if nothing has booted yet the only thing running is bios, and that searches for a bootable drive, if it doesn't find one it shows you an error message
[15:34] <lor_> As I was explaining before I deleted c:\wubi my mistake
[15:34] <bobthemil> but when I put "Driver   "r128"" into xorg.conf, KDE won't load
[15:34] <DogWater> Howdy, is there some way to install using a local mirror but then have everything else done through internet mirrors?
[15:34] <snek> amortvigil: you have multiple harddrives in this computer?
[15:34] <PeskyJ> simplexio: I killed spirographx but it didn't die, it went into D state, and I killed gnome-screensaver - still the display on the local machine won't wake
[15:34] <DogWater> (i mean automatically)
[15:34] <bobthemil> and r128 is most definitely the correct drivers for my video card
[15:34] <lor_> Jack_Sparrow, Trouble is I can't remember deleting it
[15:34] <C0p3rn1c> if I want to download something from a website with a password , how can I pass the login to downloader for x ?
[15:34] <amortvigil> yes its bios tellign me there is no bootable drive ytes
[15:35] <maD3-liNUx> lor: i don't understan what do u mean??
[15:35] <Jack_Sparrow> lor_ Please dont consider wubi anything more than a test drive.. before installing it to a full partition
[15:35] <amortvigil> snek, cast: is sudo /usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/sda5 the right way?>
[15:35] <Joerie> Rainarrow, im using gnome (should you not have read it :))
[15:35] <n8tuser> saml-> tar cvzf - passwd_info.txt | openssl des3 -salt -k secretkey | dd of=encrypted_passwd_info
[15:35] <amortvigil> snek: because thats how i did it
[15:35] <PeskyJ> simplexio: I'm beginning to thing that the DISPLAY :0.0 (or whatever it's called) is dead or doesn't exist any more
[15:35] <cast> hmmm, you want grub installed to the MBR
[15:35] <lor_> Jack_Sparrow, I see. not so obvious from the presentation
[15:35] <slack_baphomet> will a mac be able to use something like vine vnc to remote desktop into my linux box ?
[15:35] <UnknownUser56> sudo apt-get grub --install-you don't install grub to hda* ,just hda
[15:35] <amortvigil> cast: no i dont want that :P
[15:35] <saml> n8tuser: thanks
[15:35] <lor_> Is there a way to detect the size assigned to the virtual drive?
[15:36] <Armada> cast: Not helping huh? :P
[15:36] <maD3-liNUx> amortvigil: try this "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/path/to/directory hd0"
[15:36] <ksbalaji> India!
[15:36] <amortvigil> cast: i want it to /boot wich is an /dev/sda5 partition of 300 mb
[15:36] <amortvigil> wich is set to bootabkle
[15:36] <UnknownUser56> maD3-liNUx:beat me to it
[15:36] <snek> amortvigil: sometimes ubuntu confuses between what is the actual boot drive.. i have had that problem many times in machines which have both sata & pata drives.. i usually solve it by disconnecting all other drives except the boot drive during an install and only reconnecting all the other ones after it's done installing..
[15:36] <UnknownUser56> ;p
[15:37] <maD3-liNUx> UnknowUser56: what do u mean??
[15:37] <MrPotatoes> Hey guys.  Quick question
[15:37] <MrPotatoes> i'm suing rsync and trying to backup my hidden files
[15:37] <amortvigil> snek: well its only 1 drive
[15:37] <MrPotatoes> I want to make the rsync on the files-from not be relative.  I've tried multiple versions of --no-R but it still screws up.  Where and I supposed to put it?
[15:37] <MrPotatoes> my command is: rsync -arv --no-R --files-from=/Users/villanuevaa/.rsync/sync.hidden-backup --delete ~ ~/Desktop/tmp/.
[15:37] <snek> amortvigil: ok.. then.. i.. am.. confused.. haha
[15:38] <bobthemim> snek: You were helping me before with my video issue, do you think you could help me some more?
[15:38] <bobthemim> I looked at those websites you linked earlier, but they aren't helping at all :(
[15:38] <MrPotatoes> in the hidden file everything looks like /Users/villanuevaa/$FILE
[15:38] <slack_baphomet> anyone able to help me with my question ?
[15:38] <simplexio> PeskyJ: that possivle, but if your monitor dosent wake up try:  xset dpms force on
[15:38] <UnknownUser56> maD3-liNUx:the grub install command :p
[15:38] <maD3-liNUx> slack: may i??
[15:38] <ksbalaji> TheMoron, apache config does not work in terminal. Is it OK?
[15:38] <maD3-liNUx> UnknowUser56: so??
[15:38] <snek> bobthemim: sorry bob but it's mostly trial & error for me as well, the part you are on hehe :)
[15:39] <bobthemim> You got any idea as to why X won't run when I tell it to load the r128 drivers?
[15:39] <bobthemim> I'm positive they're the correct drivers.
[15:39] <snek> bobthemim: what kind of error does it give?
[15:40] <PeskyJ> simplexio: that says unable to open display localhost:0
[15:40] <bobthemim> Hold on, and I'll tell ya :)
[15:40] <ksbalaji> TheMoron, result: bash: apache: command not found
[15:41] <MrPotatoes> No one?
[15:42] <MrPotatoes> I'm just trying to set the --no-relative flag in the command but i can't seem to get it right
[15:42] <maD3-liNUx> MrPotatoes: sorry i don't get it:D
[15:42] <bobthemil> snek: okay, the error is that when I do /etc/init.d/kdm start, it causes a black screen and then I can't do anything, not even go back to ctrl-alt-F1
[15:42] <MrPotatoes> I'll post it again
[15:42] <Ohmu_> I've booted up, connect to the net, launch this xchat window, sudo ifdown wlan0, sudo ifup wlan0 -v, all looks good.  iwlist wlan0 scan,  looks good, iwconfig wlan0, looks good but says 'Access Point: None' and doesn't show a MAC.  ifconfig wlan0 shows mac and ip.    but the other puter doesn't see the wireless network!  Now I run WiCD, Connect to 'Spoink' wirelessnetwork.   ok .. NOW the other box can see the network and join.  ipconfig on it shows correctl
[15:42] <Ohmu_> y assigned ip, subnet and gateway.  ping google.com fails!  'sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart' succeeds, but client still can't ping google.com  can anyone help?
[15:42] <PeskyJ> simplexio:  n8tuser: is there some way to query x-session-manager or xorg to see if there even is a local display present?
[15:42] <Ohmu_> Basically, I'm trying to get a WAP up and running.  It was working but I upgraded H->I and it's broken.
[15:42] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> xdpyinfo

[15:44] <bobthemil> I will as soon as it reboots
[15:44] <maD3-liNUx> Ohmu_: or u have write rule of firewall??
[15:44] <kman82> wow I hate modems - you see how IPing everythind has helped linux - all modems you connect via lan now, same with printers etc... great
[15:44] <bobthemil> bobthemim is me on the laptop that's having issues :P
[15:44] <MrPotatoes> my command is: rsync -arv --no-R --files-from=/Users/villanuevaa/.rsync/sync.hidden-backup --delete ~ ~/Desktop/tmp/
[15:44] <MrPotatoes> I want to make the rsync on the files-from not be relative.  I've tried multiple versions of --no-R but it still screws up.  Where and I supposed to put it? i have a file, of course, that i use to pick out the files/folders that i want.  They all delimited with a newline as it's supposed to be and have the absolute path to the files i want.  it looks like /Users/villanuevaa
[15:44] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: not sure what you mean?
[15:44] <adminuser> b   kk
[15:44] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> do a reboot
[15:44] <w0ls0n> can anyone tell me where I can send a complain about ubuntu 8.10? I just want to know why they decided to take out screens and graphics out of 8.10. My resolution can go up to 1280 x 1024 in 8.04 but in 8.10 I can only go up to 800x 600. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO GO TO SCREEN SETTINGS IT DOESN"T WORK. THanks!
[15:45] <snek> w0ls0n: learn to edit xorg.conf :P
[15:45] <bobthemil> w0ls0n: download proper video drivers
[15:45] <w0ls0n> snek no matter what I do to the xorg.conf it never changes
[15:45] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: I had programs running on the local machine, then it went to sleep as I left it for a while, now I want to continue using them, save progress, etc. before rebooting, so all I want to do is wake up the local display so I can save stuff in those programs :/
[15:45] <bjm> bonsoir à tous
[15:45] <Jack_Sparrow> w0ls0n It is more that your monitors settings are not detected properly.. than anyone taking anything out.
[15:46] <w0ls0n> Jack_Sparrow, hello. How do I chaneg my monitor settings
[15:46] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> local machine? like your localhost?
[15:46] <ushills> Hi, can anyone help my ubuntu has just stopped autorecognising attached usb drives?
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow> w0ls0n I am busy, just wanted to point out the error in your logic
[15:46] <w0ls0n> *sigh*
[15:47] <bobthemil> snek: okay, i added r128 as the video driver to load, now every time it tries to start X (every time i boot up), it goes to a black screen and I can't do anything >.>
[15:47] <bobthemil> trying my best to get ya that log file :S
[15:47] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: it's a desktop machine, running 8.10, I'm now connected to it remotely from a windows machine.. I'm sitting right next to it but connected remotely because the local keyboard and mouse and monitro that's plugged into it won't wake up
[15:47] <snek> bob: ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't put you back to commandline?
[15:47] <bobthemil> no
[15:47] <kman82> w0ls0n, actually, ironically, I had this issue with 8.04, booting in live was ok, and not after install, did you see that?
[15:48] <simplexio> PeskyJ: alt+ctrl+F1 dosent get you to console ?
[15:48] <PeskyJ> simplexio: nope
[15:48] <sinan> anyone can recommend a FOSS software to find integrals?
[15:48] <n8tuser> PeskyJ-> you do realize once you log off, the process you were working on gets killed to lest you use screen (console apps)
[15:48] <sn> irc://irc.eden-irc.net/only_game
[15:48] <simplexio> PeskyJ: but ssh works.. does dmesg tell you anything ?
[15:48] <w0ls0n> kman82, wha?
[15:48] <Anon4123> test
[15:48] <shiMMer> how to set wallpaper on fluxbox.i got an error..
[15:49] <ionstorm> 1,2
[15:49] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: I never logged off... the screensaver kicked in and it won't wake up.. the user is still logged on, all the programs are still running
[15:49] <simplexio> PeskyJ: and did you logoff or did you just let screensaver lock screen ?
[15:49] <w0ls0n> Jack_Sparrow, when you have a moment, can you give me a hand with that?
[15:49] <snek> bob: maybe figure out how to stop X from starting on boot.. that way you can have a look at the logs? otherwise you're gonna have to boot a livecd/liveusb and mount the drive to read the logs..
[15:49] <PeskyJ> simplexio: yeah screensaver locked then wouldn't wake up
[15:49] <Jack_Sparrow> w0ls0n I am busy...
[15:49] <shiMMer> how to set wallpaper on fluxbox.i got an error..
[15:49] <simplexio> PeskyJ: you had some nice 3d stuff screensaver on it ?
[15:49] <snek> bob: or of course boot with the old driver again.........
[15:50] <PeskyJ> n8tuser: simplexio it went to power save mode and switched off the monitor, the screensaver is random, it was running spirographx according to ps
[15:50] <w0ls0n> how do I tell if my system has the correct video driver?
[15:50] <bobthemil> snek: yeah that's what i just did
[15:50] <xnv> w0ls0n: You said going to System->Preferences->Screen Resolution didn't help. Why not? What happens when you go there?
[15:50] <slack_baphomet> ok who here knows about remote desktop
[15:50] <bobthemil> booting into X with the vesa drivers as we speak :)
[15:50] <shiMMer> how to set wallpaper on fluxbox.i got an error..

[15:50] <TheMoron> I know slack

[15:51] <maD3-liNUx> slack: i know about remote desktop ..may be i can help u??
[15:51] <bobthemil> For the sake of logging, I booted into the recovery console, chose to log to root shell : vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf, exit, continue normal boot
[15:51] <xnv> slack_baphomet: Just ask your question.
[15:51] <shiMMer> how to set wallpaper on fluxbox.i got an error..
[15:51] <deb_unlimited> :)  I've been having issues recently with my computer locking up.  I'm trying to pull something up on the net and the screen darkens.  The cursor shows that the computer is trying to load but it's like the hard drive is stuck in a loop.  The cursor freezes and then will move after a delay.  Sometimes the screen will return to normal after a wait, sometimes it just keeps going and going with no results.  It used to be a rare thing but ove
[15:51] <PeskyJ> simplexio: I don't really know what to look for... last thing in there is me unpolugging the USB keyboard and back in again to see if that helped
[15:52] <simplexio> deb_unlimited: does dmesg tell you anything useful?
[15:52] <slack_baphomet> xnv, have been for a while lol , again - If i use any vnc program from a mac computer ( osx ) will i have no problems connecting to my linux box
[15:52] <simplexio> PeskyJ: only time i had issues with X freezing was when i tried compiz
[15:52] <deb_unlimited> what's dmesg?
[15:52] <snek> bob: i am leaving in 10 minutes, but yeah i suggest having a look in the Xorg logs and dmesg as well.. i bet you'll find something in the Xorg log which could help you though
[15:52] <Anon4123> dmesg shows boot messages
[15:52] <Anon4123> in a terminal
[15:53] <simplexio> deb_unlimited: open console and type dmesg
[15:53] <allquixotic> jrib: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libshout/+bug/304843 :)
[15:53] <PeskyJ> simplexio: compiz works fine on that machine - dmsg shows what looks like some register dumps talking about xorg process.. is that usual?
[15:53] <margeb> Have lost the GUI and not sure how, or how to get it back.
[15:53] <margeb> (Mother-in-law's computer)
[15:53] <snek> dmesg spits out way too much for me though, i prefer check the log instead with: sudo less /var/log/dmesg
[15:54] <Anon4123> CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE = reboots the GUI
[15:54] <simplexio> PeskyJ: can you pastebin that dmesg ?
[15:54] <margeb> need to use dpkg -??? reconfigure ???   maybe
[15:54] <margeb> or xorg-reconfigure ????  or...?
[15:54] <xnv> slack_baphomet: That's not a question anyone can answer. You are asking about "any" VNC program and no one knows about all of them. And you ask about having "no problems" and there are a lot of problems that can come up when connecting any two computers with any software.
[15:54] <bobthemil> margeb: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:54] <Anon4123> true that
[15:54] <deb_unlimited> Okay, it spit out a ton of info
[15:54] <margeb> console mode only here...  Need  thx bobthemil
[15:54] <bobthemil> it helps if you kill X first
[15:54] <erUSUL> margeb: do you boot into text terminal? or into blank display?

[15:55] <margeb> erUSUL: I am in console mode.
[15:55] <rohdef> how do I make the network manager send a pin to my wireless broadband modem?
[15:55] <margeb> will only boot to console mode now.
[15:55] <kman82> nice spam, I thought irc spam had died out?

[15:56] <erUSUL> margeb: maybe you removed gdm from the boot processes?
[15:56] <alsadi> I have booted kubuntu 8.10 CD then I turned off my PC then I went to sleep but when I wake up, I tried to boot the CD again I could not by BIOS asked for a password (for the first time and I never have any) and then it did not allow me to change boot priority what could be the problem ?

[15:56] <ushills> Hi, can anyone help my ubuntu has just stopped autorecognising attached usb drives? it places them under places but does not put them on desktop or autoopen anymore.
[15:57] <bobthemil> alsadi: Strangest thing I've ever heard. My advice would be to flash BIOS :S
[15:57] <alsadi> ushills: could it be the battery
[15:57] <simplexio> deb_unlimited: do you use that fat partition to something ?
[15:57] <snek> ushills: if it puts them under places they are recognised, no?
[15:57] <xnv> alsadi: Sounds like someone added a password while you were asleep or you have a hardware problem.
[15:57] <ushills> alsadi, using a pc not laptop
[15:57] <bobthemil> alsadi: A battery going old or dying would just flash the BIOS. So unless your BIOS has a password on by default (which is strange), that shouldn't be it
[15:57] <ushills> snek, it used to auto open until updates today
[15:57] <bobthemil> alastor666: Like xnv said, my initial suspicion would be that someone is playing a trick on you
[15:58] <Leon> alsadi: You have tried an empty passwd?
[15:58] <simplexio> alsadi: toshiba laptop ?
[15:58] <alsadi> no not a laptop it's a desktop
[15:58] <rohdef> how do I make the network manager send a pin to my wireless broadband modem?
[15:58] <slack_baphomet> xnv, im asking generally
[15:58] <Leon> bobthemil: I believe thath
[15:58] <TuxSympathiser> wanker
[15:58] <slack_baphomet> im not asking for program specifics
[15:58] <snek> ushills: but it's just not making the icons on the desktop, but it is showing them in places (and they are usable)?
[15:58] <xnv> bobthemil, alsadi: And you don't want to flash the BIOS. You just want to reset it.
[15:58] <PeskyJ> simplexio: http://pastebin.com/d4cad02ce
[15:58] <alsadi> an empty password allow me to see the options but not to change them
[15:59] <xnv> slack_baphomet: And?
[15:59] <slack_baphomet> ie; computer 1 can see computer 2 regardless of client
[15:59] <Leon> bobthemil: sry I believe that you cant flanh the bios if its passwd protected
[15:59] <PeskyJ> simplexio: the screensaver kicked in at about 13:18 if that helps
[15:59] <ushills> snek: that is correct not a problem but I use a luks encryped drive and this is not therefore mounting correctly but it does this with all usb now
[15:59] <Jack_Sparrow> alsadi Pull the bios/cmos battery for 15 minutes and then put it back to clear the pass or read the manual and find the clear coms  bios jumper
[16:00] <deb_unlimited> I don't mess with the system, hd or software...I don't know enough about ubuntu...switched to linux 9 months ago.  Death to Windows!!!!!!!!
[16:00] <alsadi> jack_sparrow: OK I guess I should do that
[16:00] <Anon4123> death to windows and apple!!
[16:00] <Jack_Sparrow> alsadi a dying battery will not flash the bios
[16:00] <snek> gotta go, see you tomorrow all :P
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon4123 please avoid saying things like that

[16:01] <TuxSympathiser> are there any risks using a year old release of ubuntu over the latest?
[16:01] <poid> anyone here use proxies, tor or other to surf anon?
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> jxander not that I am aware of.
[16:01] <bobthemil> i think that might be the log from the current boot, not from the errored one, though
[16:02] <bobthemil> grep EE returns nothing useful, nor does grep WW
[16:02] <xnv> slack_baphomet: VNC is meant to be cross-platform, but there are lots of reasons it might not work between two given computers, e.g. something simple like a firewall.
[16:02] <PeskyJ> simplexio: ok... I'm still connected to the machine running xchat over XMRPC connection
[16:02] <TuxSympathiser> providing the latest causes random system freezes where as 7.10 was stabler
[16:02] <PeskyJ> simplexio: but VNC wouldn't connect
[16:02] <PeskyJ> simplexio: is it possible to restart xorg and make it reconnect to the programs that are still running?
[16:02] <Jimmymaniac> TuxSympathiser: as long as you keep the distro updated *and* it has support, you should be fine
[16:02] <slack_baphomet> xnv, thats all i needed to hear thanks
[16:02] <Jack_Sparrow> TuxSympathiser as long as you continue security updates there is no problem.  I have several boxes on older releases of ubuntu
[16:03] <deagle> hello alll
[16:03] <deagle> does anyone know how to export a path that has a space in it?
[16:03] <simplexio> PeskyJ: i dont think thats possible. attleast i dont know how
[16:03] <xnv> TuxSympathiser: If you're going to use and old one, use a LTS release.
[16:03] <rio> deagle: wheres the problem?
[16:03] <PeskyJ> simplexio: according to ps xorg is still running
[16:03] <deagle> export programs=

[16:03] <q0s> hey guys, i need to compile my own uvcvideo module because i need to apply a patch for my cam. that not a problem, but i read since Linux 2.6.26 the kernel supports uvcvideo natively. so, how can i make sure that my module is used?
[16:03] <kb3ien> looking for useful pointers to setup 8.10 on a graphite g4 with an ATI rage128 card. I cannot seem to get past E no screens found.
[16:04] <rio> deagle: export FOO="bar qux" is working well
[16:04] <deagle> rio: export programs='/home/deagle/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files'  <- that doesn't work
[16:04] <bobthemil> Try " instead of '
[16:04] <deagle> did that
[16:04] <deagle> didn't work either
[16:04] <bobthemil> kb3ien: You know, I have a very very similar problem
[16:05] <rio> deagle: no need for \
[16:05] <bobthemil> well, only similar in the fact that I can't get 8.10 to cope with an R128 card. I got it to install just fine
[16:05] <rio> export foo='bar qux' works without escaping
[16:05] <deagle> rio: doesn't work without the \ either
[16:05] <PeskyJ> simplexio: from ps auxf it looks like xorg runs once and x-session-manager runs once for each connected x session, so all the programs run under the session manager...
[16:05] <rio> deagle: it does
[16:05] <rio> christoph@thinkpad:~$ export bar='qux\ baz'
[16:05] <rio> christoph@thinkpad:~$ echo $bar
[16:05] <rio> qux\ baz
[16:05] <rio> so theres an additional \ if you use it
[16:06] <deagle> rio: i wanna do this:   deagle$ cd programs
[16:06] <bobthemil> kb3ien: try skipping the "no screens found" issue and then later on manually configuring xorg.conf
[16:06] <deagle> and get: /home/deagle/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/$
[16:06] <rio> deagle: you need "cd $programs"
[16:06] <mewilsonii> Hey, I was wondering if somebody could help me with getting my video card (ATI Radeon 9200) to work in Hardy. I've been trying for three days and each time I've followed the advice I found online, I had to reinstall Hardy.
[16:06] <deagle> rio: correct
[16:07] <tarxeuz> im looking for IRC channels that talks about celfons like nokia, se,etc....and their comparison features...
[16:07] <kb3ien> i'd think so, but anyone have a suitable xorg.conf for me to paraphrase ?
[16:07] <bobthemil> kb3ien: If you give me a couple of hours, you can copy mine line for line (probably)
[16:07] <deagle> rio: http://pastebin.com/d2c43fcfc
[16:08] <deagle> rio: see what i mean?
[16:08] <kb3ien> im not sure about 'skipping' no screens found. as that error coinsides with the blanking of my monitor....
[16:09] <rio> deagle: yeah, im trying right now, cd is messing it up

[16:11] <deagle> np
[16:11] <badawi> !ubottu
[16:11] <PeskyJ> simplexio: is there no way at all to grab control of the programs running under the x-session-manager so I can save work and close them?

[16:12] <Dreamer3> where should i put my ssl certs for apache2?
[16:12] <deagle> literally? or as in applied to what i need it for? o_O
[16:12] <Dreamer3> i'm not sure how it's pacakged with ubuntu
[16:13] <w0ls0n> erUSUL, I have other messages of the same style in dmesg as well
[16:13] <Dreamer3> i'm looking in /etc/apache2 but nothing is jumping out
[16:13] <rio> deagle: applied to what you need it for of course
[16:13] <rio> deagle: use no \ in your export and quotes in your cd call
[16:13] <PeskyJ> simplexio: hrm.. would hibernating restart xorg?
[16:13] <zamba> Dreamer3: /etc/ssl/private is one place
[16:13] <PeskyJ> simplexio: I'm clutching at straws!
[16:13] <Dreamer3> sl certs in /etc/ssl/certs and private keys in /etc/ssl/private
[16:13] <rio> deagle: but an alias might be better than cd "$programs" anyway
[16:13] <Dreamer3> that makes sense

[16:40] <kman82> none of the class supports work in efax... oh well
[16:40] <kman82> fax is just analogue right? surely any modem can send faxes
[16:41] <[c0re]> deagle, dude. i love tadila or whatever it is :p

[17:22] <paul68> hi what is the fastest way to copy files over a network just with cp or scp? and is it possible to tweak the transfer speed somehow?
[17:22] <rgnr> join virtualbox
[17:23] <akahige1> @Jack_Sparrow: I was looking at your splash tutorial and had a quick question... I have a dual monitor system and would like to extend (or even just duplicate) the splash screen across both monitors. is there a way to do that without hacking the image and making it twice as wide...?
[17:23] <raylton> ?
[17:23] <sipior> raylton: no idea what you just said, friend
[17:23] <rgnr> Jack_Sparrow:  10x
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[17:24] <Rainarrow> Mateo_, see if this link helps,, http://pign.net/index.php?hl=f5&q=uggc%3A%2F%2Fyvaqnwnar.jbeqcerff.pbz%2F2008%2F11%2F02%2Fcnyz-prageb-ubgflap-ivn-oyhrgbbgu-ba-hohagh-810-vagercvq-vork%2F
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> aka I dont dual head any setup here
[17:25] <unimatrix9> how can i get devede to create an iso file instead of an bin / cue
[17:25] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, The system is faster with effects off. But the system used to be faster still with effect on earlier. (before an update of kernel)
[17:25] <Mateo_> Rainarrow: come on :) it's an old palm, clie SJ30 , i just have a infrared connection or usb :)
[17:25] <akahige1> Jack_Sparrow: np. your tutuorial was about grub splash and not gdm login, so I was kinda off topic
[17:25] <Rainarrow> Mateo_, ok..so I think you could only settle with USB then :p
[17:25] <phantomcircuit> Linux patrick-laptop 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[17:26] <Rainarrow> Mateo_, my sync cable was lost long ago..
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> ksbalaji I agree, I keep several systems on older versions
[17:26] <phantomcircuit> 2.6.27-9-generic means the kernel is a vanilla build right?
[17:26] <cdw> hey, i'm having trouble enabling desktop effects, can anyone help
[17:26] <infinity_> If i have for example 4 desktops, can i have various icons each of them?
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> akahige1 yes, I didnt kow you were working on GDM background
[17:27] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, Is it Ok to remove earlier kernels from /boot/grub?
[17:27] <smnab> phantomcircuit: Not necessarily. that is the default kernel provided by ubuntu. may be vanilla, may be not.
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[17:27] <Rainarrow> Mateo_, so I'm afraid I won't be able to offer much help :(
[17:27] <akahige1> Jack_Sparrow: does that mean you might have an answer to my question...? lol
[17:27] <Flannel> ksbalaji: You should just remove their associated packages with your favorite package manager (the package names are linux-image-[version])
[17:27] <supersasho> hi, i've got problem with default application, even if i set system/preferencies/preferred applications-multimedia on vlc, it still opens in totem.. any suggestions?
[17:27] <dougl> can someone enlighten me? firefox displays "If you do not currently have a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed on your computer, you will need to download and install one from Sun Microsystems." when I try to access site can this be installed on my kubuntu 8.10?
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> ksbalaji but that does not remove them from your system
[17:28] <raylton> hallo i'm from brazilian
[17:28] <phantomcircuit> smnab, so if im getting a kernel call trace i should report it as a ubuntu bug?
[17:28] <Jack_Sparrow> akahige1 I still do not dual-dead my monitors so no..
[17:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !br > raylton
[17:28] <smnab> phantomcircuit: yes, if it is in the default ubuntu-provided kernel, you should report it to ubuntu.
[17:28] <akahige1> Jack_Sparrow: worth asking.  *g*
[17:28] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, do you mean that the earlier kernels do not go away at all?
[17:28] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[17:29] <sipior> dougl: sure, there should be a "sun-java6-jre" package you can install
[17:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ksbalaji not unless you specifically remove them
[17:29] <phantomcircuit> smnab, how do i do that? :P
[17:29] <Jack_Sparrow> afk
[17:29] <Xk2c> # mount -t squashfs -o loop grml.squashfs /mnt/grml/
[17:29] <Flannel> ksbalaji: They don't go away on their own.  You need to remove those packages, then they'll go away.
[17:29] <sipior> dougl: that should sort out the java issues with your browser
[17:29] <dougl> sipior, thanks -> checking synaptic now
[17:29] <phantomcircuit> smnab, nvm i found the community documentation page on it
[17:29] <Xk2c> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[17:29] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, OK thanks. I will remove them and see if removing improves speed.
[17:29] <smnab> phantomcircuit: there is the ubuntu launchpad website.
[17:29] <Xk2c> has somebody an idea about this error message?
[17:30] <Jack_Sparrow> lsbit wont

[17:31] <jimmy___> Hey guys!
[17:31] <Guest50854> none... It makes the synce sound when connecting but it doesnt do anything else
[17:32] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, I thought the speed is because of the kernel update and want to remove the latest kernel to see whether it improves speed.
[17:32] <Jack_Sparrow> ksbalaji simply boot the last kernel from grub menu
[17:32] <BlackDalek> Where are gnome panel applets installed?
[17:33] <ksbalaji> Jack_Sparrow, that is a good idea before removing the latest one. I shall try. bye.
[17:33] <jimmy___> If I wanted to write a GUI program in Ubuntu what should I use? I know basic C and C++.

[17:34] <smnab> hello. could someone tell me, there is a config file in /boot . I guess it is the config file for the default kernel. How do I use this file to compile a kernel from source?
[17:35] <Flannel> !kernel | smnab
[17:35] <Xk2c> sipior: # lsmod | grep squash
[17:35] <Xk2c> squashfs               49160  0
[17:35] <erUSUL> smnab: copy it as .config to the sources folder and "make oldconfig"
[17:35] <smnab> erUSUL: ok, thanks.
