[14:11] <erUSUL> dehqan: probably is a default action in the install scripts of the package (just like althought dash is default sh in ubuntu it does the alternatives thing too)

[14:13] <Sensiva> jessegenereux you must use 64bit OS to use 4GB ram
[14:13] <delivos> what audio system am i using?
[14:13] <sernylan> jimlovell777: I probably wouldn't, but for a sample beginning one of the songs on Zdob Si Zdub's "Agroromantica" CD.
[14:13] <PwrSurge> hi, for the strangest reason, my left mouse button does not work under ubuntu
[14:13] <PwrSurge> any ideas?

[14:14] <cyberbluntz> powersurge?
[14:14] <PwrSurge> works fine in other OS
[14:14] <jessegenereux> wow that sucks...when i put ubuntu on my desktop PC it only had 512mb of ram...i was giving the 2x2gb sticks.....thanks sensiva

[14:17] <TardisGuy>  pen drive and having a tiny persistance fs
[14:17] <TardisGuy> I usually run 64 bit Ubuntu. But i was going to throw 32 for compatability. Seeing now there is a true performance difference, i have no problem tweaking to get a fer things working
[14:17] <TardisGuy> son of a... wrong buttons
[14:17] <umbra_> jimlovell777,  I wonder how many would have recognized it without the movie apollo 13. (I've actually got one of  Lovell's autographs)
[14:18] <aimtrainer> Hey! Can anyone please explain to me how to boot from an external harddrive or memory stick using grub. Grub is in the mbr of the internal harddrive. The notebook fails to boot from usb - that's why I'm asking
[14:18] <jimlovell777> umbra_: Do you really? Lucky. I'm headed to the cape this July for the second to last shuttle launch, very excited.
[14:18] <TardisGuy> I want to know the name of the program that will allow me to install ubuntu from an external hard drive (with another install on it)
[14:19] <wzssyqa> aimtrainer: descripe it clearley
[14:19] <TardisGuy> like when you boot the live cd and "install ubuntu" right there
[14:19] <TardisGuy> if you give me a keyword i can google it
[14:19] <coz_> shooree, thanks I have kept thos in a text file incase someone else asks ...its working now though?
[14:19] <wzssyqa> aimtrainer: maybe,you should setup in bios,or etc
[14:19] <umbra_> jimlovell777, excellent...last time I was down there was for glenn's return.
[14:20] <jimlovell777> umbra_: Double lucky.
[14:20] <dehqan> xargs: aptitude: exited with status 255; aborting
[14:21] <tofi> aimtrainer: did you switch the Boot Device priority to include USB?
[14:21] <tofi> you have to Plug in the USB Device before powering on the Laptop to do this
[14:21] <aimtrainer> tofi, yes - removable device is on topb
[14:21] <aimtrainer> *top
[14:21] <tully> Sorry in advance as this might be a OSX question however. I currently run samba on a VPS server overseas. I have installed samba and shorewall, unblocked the ports and for all Window and linux machines, it connects fine. However with any OSX machine i cant connect. Is there any setting within OSX which could restrict access due to OS?
[14:22] <tully> *Is there any setting within samba that could restrict access
[14:22] <jimlovell777> dehqan: dpkg --get-selections > file  then  cat file > dpkg --set-selections  then sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
[14:22] <aimtrainer> and I can also load a boot menu where i can select the device I want to boot from. when I select dvd or removable device it looks like it trys for a second and then goes to the usual grub
[14:22] <umbra_> jimlovell777, you should meet a friend of mine.  He has autographs and mission patches from every known US space launch crew.
[14:23] <sandro_> ciao a tutte e tutti
[14:23] <PwrSurge> in xev, there's no event when left clicking
[14:23] <PwrSurge> so i'm lost
[14:23] <Andillusion> ciao sandro...
[14:23] <jimlovell777> umbra_: :-O
[14:23] <dehqan> jimlovell777: what will that command do exactly ? will it reinstall packages that are installed ?
[14:23] <jimlovell777> dehqan: Yes, it's supposed to
[14:23] <umbra_> jimlovell777, it's quite a collection.
[14:24] <jimlovell777> umbra_: Certainly sounds like it.
[14:24] <dehqan> jimlovell777: and will install those packages that are not installed ?
[14:24] <jimlovell777> dehqan: nope
[14:24] <sernylan> tully, perhaps ports to open on OSX?
[14:25] <umbra_> jimlovell777, if you're into that sort of memorabilia thing hang on and i'll private message you something after i find it...
[14:25] <jimlovell777> umbra_: Ok, thanks.
[14:25] <PwrSurge> I guess everyone is stumped huh?
[14:25] <dehqan> jimlovell777: this  sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade only upgrade packages ?
[14:26] <jimlovell777> dehqan: That should install the selections that are not currently installed.
[14:26] <the-erm> what program would you run to enable/disable services?
[14:26] <dehqan> jimlovell777: so why do you say nope ?
[14:26] <the-erm> I can't seem to find it in the menu.

[14:26] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  sudo service XXXXX stop
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  it depends on the service and your ubuntu version also
[14:27] <obiwan_> guys could anybody give me google ip? my internet doesn't work and i'm suspecting it's dns problem, i need googles ip to ping it
[14:27] <the-erm> Dr_Willis: so no gui?
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  No idea. I rarely messed with old guis.
[14:27] <gwtl> obiwan_: <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:27] <obiwan_> ty gwtl
[14:28] <the-erm> that appears to be the same thing as /etc/init.d/service stop
[14:28] <obiwan_> it works, so it gotta be dns right gwtl ?
[14:28] <gwtl> must be
[14:28] <obiwan_> yesterday i had the same problem
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  get away from the /etc/init.d/XXXXX type ussage.  its slowly being obsoleted
[14:28] <the-erm> There used to be a gui program that would allow you to enable/disable all that stuff.
[14:28] <obiwan_> hecking spain dns ghghghr
[14:28] <the-erm> noooo
[14:28] <the-erm> I like the init.d scripts.
[14:28] <gwtl> try setting a different dns server?
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  the move to UPSTART has  changed a lot of things
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> !upstart
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  get over it. Sysv is getting phased out.. Upstart is getting phased in
[14:29] <obiwan_> gwtl: could you please tell me your dns?
[14:29] <the-erm> So how in the world do you get a list of all your services?
[14:29] <Nacho> hola
[14:29] <obiwan_> gwtl: or some one that you know works good
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  sudo service list   or somthing like that
[14:30] <the-erm> I liked being able to go to a folder and just ls to see what was installed.
[14:30] <Nacho> nacho
[14:30] <gwtl> obiwan_: I use our university network's one
[14:30] <obiwan_> oh ok gwtl
[14:30] <the-erm> oh well I guess the smart people know how to fix things so it's more complicated.
[14:30] <hackoo> my phone memory card is not showing in ubuntu. I have connected via usb and selected mass storage.
[14:30] <obiwan_> please could anybody tell me some dns working fine?
[14:30] <umbra_> jimlovell777, hope that didn't overload your system
[14:30] <gwtl> obiwan_: hmmm, I wonder if you could use google....
[14:31] <obiwan_> i can't gwtl  :(
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  actually Upstart is a LOT simpiler in many ways.. but since you havent read up on it..... well...
[14:31] <obiwan_> oh doyo mean with ip gwtl ?
[14:31] <obiwan_> yeah maybe it works lemme try
[14:31] <gwtl> obiwan_: I mean use google as dns server
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> the-erm:  some serices are still using the sysv method. but thats getting les and less with each new ubuntu release
[14:32] <obiwan_> gwtl: how? adding that ip to my resolv.conf?
[14:32] <gwtl> obiwan_: no idea
[14:32] <pcoperator> aan
[14:32] <obiwan_> that's google server ip
[14:32] <gwtl> obiwan_: I'll se if i can find out
[14:32] <obiwan_> i don't think they use it as dns too
[14:32] <obiwan_> ok
[14:32] <pcoperator> halooo
[14:32] <sakhi> I have a acer Extensa 5635G I need a driver for Atheros ar8131 Gigabit for Ubuntu 9.10 has anyone had this problem before?
[14:32] <obiwan_> if not, please just google some dns address, thanks
[14:32] <dehqan> jimlovell777: you said ; That should install the selections that are not currently installed. how about selections that are currently installed or purged or ... will reinstall them ?
[14:32] <pcoperator> dimana obiwan
[14:33] <obiwan_> hi pcoperator
[14:33] <rzx237> obiwan: openDns <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:33] <obiwan_> rzx237: thanks i'll try that
[14:33] <wzssyqa> google dns is <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:33] <obiwan_> nice wzssyqa ahah
[14:33] <obiwan_> easy to remember
[14:33] <wzssyqa> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:34] <gwtl> obiwan_: I foud a possible solution
[14:34] <dehqan>  dpkg --get-selections > file  then  cat file > dpkg --set-selections  then sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade   ,  That should install the selections that are not currently installed. how about selections that are currently installed or purged or ... will reinstall them ?
[14:34] <the-erm> Ok back to my original question ... how do you disable it?  How do you turn them off so they aren't running?  There used to be a gui that did it.
[14:34] <gwtl> obiwan_: seems wzssyqa beat me to it
[14:34] <wzssyqa> obiwan_: they may spent lot

[14:37] <pigdude> wzssyqa, thanks
[14:37] <archman> i want to remove my swap partition (as it's useless to me...) and add that free space to the main partition (root). is it enough to just remove the swap, create the ext3, and join it with /?
[14:37] <pigdude> wzssyqa, yea I was confused for a sec. didn't it used to have the hyphen?
[14:37] <gwtl> If I press Space+Ctrl+KEY nothing happens
[14:38] <gwtl> any ideas?
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> i always put at least 512mb swap on all my HD's :)
[14:38] <obiwan_> gwtl: many thanks i did so and it works fine
[14:38] <gwtl> obiwan_: nice
[14:38] <sushuangping> good evening

[14:39] <wzssyqa> Dr_Willis: join partio is very suck
[14:39] <sushuangping> I am from china
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> wzssyqa:  tell it to archman
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> :)
[14:40] <wzssyqa> Dr_Willis: ?
[14:40] <the-erm> erUSUL thanks ... I guess bum did the trick
[14:41] <Dr_Willis> wzssyqa:  archman  is the one wanting to remove swap not me
[14:41] <Jimi_Neutral> clonezilla keeps telling me that /media/disk-1/ does not exist when it tried to save an image of a HDD I am cloning there....does anyone have any idea why this would be?
[14:41] <wzssyqa> archman: you want to remove swap?
[14:41] <sushuangping> good evening every one =Õż¦Õ«ČµÖÜõĖŖÕźĮ
[14:42] <archman> wzssyqa, well, looking if it's safe to do it, as i have only 1.2GB of phy memory
[14:42] <wzssyqa> sushuangping: here is not place to teach chinese
[14:43] <archman> wzssyqa, as i see that this swap i have (900mb) is not enough for me to hibernate the pc, and it's empty almost always (it has 65mb atm :D)
[14:43] <wzssyqa> archman: since you have not to much phy mem ,then,you need seap
[14:43] <archman> aah ok
[14:43] <archman> :S
[14:44] <archman> wzssyqa, do i need exactly the same swap size as my phy mem, or 20% more, maybe?
[14:44] <archman> wzssqa or is it better to use tuxonice for hibernation?
[14:44] <wzssyqa> archman: ago,suggestion is 2 times
[14:44] <archman> oh cr.. :S
[14:44] <Chousuke> twice your ram is too much I think
[14:44] <archman> yes, for modern system
[14:44] <archman> read it somewhere...
[14:45] <archman> for low end machines is 2x i guess
[14:45] <archman> not sure, tho
[14:45] <Chousuke> if you need to hibernate, 1.2 times amount of RAM or something is probably okay
[14:45] <wzssyqa> for sleep,1 time,is need
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> Swap ammount depends mor eon the system. then any rule of thumnb.
[14:45] <Chousuke> you can always add more swap later anyway
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> :)
[14:45] <leander_craig> right dr wills got me cam working ;)
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> if you got 128mb of ram.. you proberly want more then 2x ram for swap :P
[14:46] <wzssyqa> now,hd is so cheap
[14:46] <archman> Chousuke, seems like i need maybe 500MB more on swpa partition :D I got two ntfs partitions, one / ext 3, can i resize some and add it to the swap? is it safe?
[14:46] <Chousuke> in fact, swap partitions are rather silly nowadays
[14:46] <wzssyqa> maybe,do not mind 2 G
[14:46] <wzssyqa> archman: you can get a file as swap
[14:46] <archman> wzssyqa i know
[14:46] <Chousuke> since you can just do dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1M count=1024 && mkswap swapfile && swapon swapfile to add a gigabyte :P
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> I always just keep 512mb of swap on every hd on every system i got and dont worry about it. :)
[14:47] <Red_HamsterX> If you allocate too much swap and find that Linux is favouring it over RAM a bit too much, you can play with the swappiness value.
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> You cant hibernate/suspend to a swapfile..  i belive.
[14:47] <archman> wzssyqa i know, that's why i want to remove the swap and use that space as for the swapfile
[14:47] <archman> Dr_Willis, tuxonice?
[14:47] <wzssyqa> archman: you can use 2 swaps
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> archman:   Not tried that.
[14:48] <archman> http://www.tuxonice.net
[14:48] <gwtl> Chousuke: so... you don't need a physical swap partition?
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> You can use 10+ swap partions :P f ya wanted to
[14:48] <wzssyqa> archman: 1 phy,1 file
[14:48] <Chousuke> gwtl: correct
[14:48] <TardisGuy> So ive been doing more reading. Question: If i were to install a command line and apt-get ubuntu-desktop and Kubuntu-desktop on two seperate users (homes) would that eliminate the icon redundancy i get when i instal two variants?
[14:48] <archman> lol
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> dont put the swap file on a NFS fileserver. :)
[14:48] <archman> erm..
[14:48] <researcher1> what is the way to secure surfing in Ubuntu? Can anonymity be enjoyed while browsing ?
[14:48] <Chousuke> gwtl: you might need one for hibernation though. I haven't checked. :P
[14:48] <gwtl> Chousuke: ah
[14:49] <archman> don't know what to do...i might shrink of of ntfs partitions
[14:49] <archman> and add it to the swap then
[14:49] <sushuangping> µ£ēµ▓Īµ£ēµ╣¢ÕŹŚõ║║’╝¤
[14:49] <archman> i wanna try that hibernate
[14:49] <archman> seems cool
[14:49] <erUSUL> !cn | sushuangping
[14:49] <archman> better than speel
[14:49] <gwtl> Chousuke: hmmm, that would be the main use for swap  (main as in using most of it)
[14:49] <archman> sleep*
[14:49] <wzssyqa> sushuangping: go to #ubuntu-cn
[14:49] <frontendloader> anyone know how to change out xulrunner-dev versions in aptitude? or will this break things, I'm trying to install mongodb and I'm getting dependency problems
[14:49] <frontendloader> xulrunner-dev: Depends: xulrunner-1.9.1-dev (>= <IP_ADDRESS>+build1+nobinonly) but it is not going to be installed
[14:50] <sushuangping> good
[14:50] <eurythmia> TardisGuy, no. when you run apt-get you install systemwide, not to homedirs. The icon redundancy happens when users log in with more than one type of session, and the DE saves all of its icons to ~/Desktop
[14:50] <archman> Chousuke, can i just unmount this ntfs partition from which i wanna take 500MB and add it to the swap (when swapoff)?
[14:50] <ssv1994> will I break my PC if I will turn it on and turn it off every day for 1 - 2 hours?
[14:51] <eurythmia> archman, is the partition on the same drive you have linux installed to?
[14:51] <mguy> ssv1994: no, back when I had windows 95 I used to do that every day
[14:51] <Chousuke> archman: you mean unmount, resize, make swap, add swap? :/
[14:51] <pigdude> OK, so I'm in KDE now :)
[14:51] <Chousuke> archman: or what?
[14:51] <archman> eurythmia, no :)
[14:51] <wzssyqa> pigdude: a great speed
[14:51] <archman> eurythmia, partition is ntfs (ex-windows :D)
[14:52] <pigdude> GVim doesn't appear in the KMenu...
[14:52] <major_redhat> question - would reformatting my harddrive from ext3 to ext4 improve boot performance? Im using 9.04
[14:52] <eurythmia> archman, then yeah, you can unmount all drives on the partition, resize the ntfs partition, and then do your magic ;)
[14:52] <dsnyders> HI all!  Is there an app other than audacity for cutting/pasting music?  Audiacity is having problems on my machine.
[14:52] <eurythmia> archman, (*safely*)
[14:52] <archman> Chousuke: unmount, resize ntfs, add swap, join to swap :D possible?
[14:52] <Chousuke> archman: sure.
[14:52] <Chousuke> archman: there's no need to turn off swap at any point either
[14:52] <archman> eurythmia, Chousuke, thanks :)
[14:52] <ssv1994> mguy: thanks, I just didn't knew anything about my question
[14:52] <Chousuke> archman: you can add and remove swap partitions or files dynamically
[14:52] <mguy> major_redhat: Not worth it, get an SSD if it bothers you that much
[14:52] <eurythmia> archman, oops, slydexia strikes again: s/all drives on the partition/all partitions on the drive/
[14:53] <erUSUL> !info mhwaveedit |  dsnyders
[14:53] <eurythmia> s/slydexia/slysdexia/
[14:53] <major_redhat> mguy: i would do that but I've heard that ubuntu will drastically reduce the lifespan of an SSD
[14:53] <archman> eurythmia ;)
[14:53] <TardisGuy> euythmia: thank you kindly for your response however i mean to say the programs it installs, i see it in the menus. For example KDE's "explorer" (forgot the name) will appear on gnomes menu.
[14:54] <mguy> major_redhat: Lies!
[14:54] <eurythmia> archman, :)
[14:54] <cyberbrain> hello...i have an issue with eclipse and GTK2 libs...i have installed libgtk and glibc...i can compile program from console and it works...but from eclipse it won't...i have entered alll paths of CFLAG in include dir and i still get this msg: undefined reference to `gtk_init'...any suggestion?
[14:54] <major_redhat> mguy: and plus i have no money for it :P
[14:54] <mguy> major_redhat: Well just be patient. How often do you reboot anyway?
[14:54] <dsnyders> Thanks erUSUL.  Audacity is the second program to stop working properly since my upgrade to 9.04
[14:54] <cyberbluntz> hey guys, what prog is this guy spoofing with? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVbWBoR4E64
[14:54] <archman> Chousuke, hmm, can i maybe see somewhere, how much EXACTLY maximum swap space will i ever need with this setup now? i don't want to resize now, and then end up with "34 bytes more required" :D
[14:54] <major_redhat> mguy: i dual boot win7 and ubuntu 9.04, and 9.04 takes roughly 15-16 seconds according to bootchart
[14:54] <pigdude> does anybody know how to get GTK programs to use the keyboard in KDE
[14:54] <Chousuke> archman: that's impossible to know for sure
[14:55] <archman> Chousuke, ok
[14:55] <Chousuke> archman: it depends entirely on what you do
[14:55] <Chousuke> archman: how much RAM do you have?
[14:55] <roxi> ola
[14:55] <archman> Chousuke, 1.22GB!
[14:55] <wanso> qeners
[14:55] <Chousuke> archman: 2GB should be plenty, then
[14:55] <archman> Chousuke, yes...
[14:55] <mguy> major_redhat: That's too long?
[14:55] <wanso> quien ers
[14:55] <cyberbrain> any exp with eclipse+GTK+CPP?
[14:55] <major_redhat> mguy: and to answer your question i reboot at least once or twice a day from windows into linux
[14:55] <roxi> llo
[14:55] <wanso> putos
[14:56] <roxi> y you
[14:56] <archman> Chousuke, you said 10-20% + on phy mem or something?
[14:56] <cyberbluntz> !es | wanso
[14:56] <major_redhat> mguy: no its not too long i was just curious as to whether the change from ext3 to ext4 would have any performance benifits
[14:56] <cyberbluntz> you realize he's swearing
[14:56] <roxi> me voywapo
[14:56] <cyberbluntz> calling you all pussy'd
[14:57] <dsnyders> major_redhat, If your machine has the "horsepower" run one of your OSs in a virtual machine.
[14:57] <major_redhat> dsnyders: i dual boot because of kdenlive
[14:57] <umang> What's the best place to ask about the Ubuntu Team Wiki license?
[14:57] <umang> #ubuntu-doc doesn't have too many people.
[14:58] <major_redhat> dsnyders: and compiz too
[14:58] <wzssyqa> umang: maybe,some mailing list
[14:58] <Red_HamsterX> umang, that's where I'd point you anyway. You're likely to get a higher-quality/more reliable response there.
[14:58] <dsnyders> major_redhat, Sorry, not familiar with kdenlive.  What's keeping you on windows?
[14:58] <umang> Red_HamsterX, I tried yesterday and today. Nobody replied...
[14:59] <major_redhat> dsnyders: specialy programs that i need for my job at school
[14:59] <Red_HamsterX> umang, cross-reference the usernames against Launchpad and find someone who seems important, then highlight them.
[14:59] <umang> wzssyqa, I'll see. Maybe The documentation team's if they have a public one.
[14:59] <major_redhat> dsnyders: and if i had the money, i would totally get a second 7200 rpm 2.5 hard drive and install 9.04 entirely on it
[14:59] <umang> Red_HamsterX, Are you sure that's not a rude thing to do?
[15:00] <Red_HamsterX> umang, IRC highlights aren't usually considered rude if you have a good reason for singling out an individual. Unsolicited PMs are bad, though.
[15:00] <umang> Red_HamsterX, OK. Thanks. :)
[15:00] <major_redhat> dsnyders: and plus my T400 gets roughly 6 hours of battery life when I run win7, compared to 2 or 3 from ubuntu
[15:01] <bran_> why is win 7 better with the battery life?
[15:01] <Red_HamsterX> umang, it would probably help to start by saying "I have a question about the Wiki license and I noticed that you're a major contributor. Can you answer a few questions?" or something like that.
[15:01] <Dr_Willis> bran_:  optmized drivers most likely
[15:02] <umang> Red_HamsterX, Thanks! :) Will do that.
[15:02] <dsnyders> major_redhat, My HP used to get 7 hours.  Now it's down to something like 15-20 minutes.
[15:02] <askhader> bran_: What you mean to say is why is Windows 7 better with battery life out of the box?
[15:03] <dsnyders> bran_, linux is notoriously bad when it comes to laptop battery usage.
[15:03] <Guest33318> is there a way to keep gnome icons aligned to the right instead of automagically going to the left ?
[15:03] <Tearran> you have to change the batteries about 1 a year
[15:03] <askhader> dsnyders: I don't think that's a fair generalization. It all depends on how good you are at optimizing
[15:03] <Tearran> 2 if you discharge 1nce a month
[15:05] <bran_> my acer gets about equal battery life w/o any tweeks
[15:05] <bran_> xp and ubuntu tho
[15:05] <dsnyders> askhader, Is there a distro that comes tuned for laptops?
[15:05] <bran_> cant speak to win 7
[15:07] <major_redhat> bran_: i have a customized mode in Lenovo's power management utility
[15:08] <Yanick_> hi, I just removed old unused kernel modules, but GRUB still finds the boot image files; how can I remove those useless entries?
[15:08] <major_redhat> bran_: sorry about the delayed response
[15:08] <Dr_Willis> Yanick_:  rerun Update-grub
[15:08] <Yanick_> I just did
[15:08] <bran_> no problem, any tweaks beyond power management?
[15:08] <Yanick_> it found everything
[15:09] <major_redhat> bran_: 9 - cell battery count?
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> Yanick_:  you dident remove Just the modules? but the kernels as well?  You may of missed somthing
[15:09] <Yanick_> I don't know why, I don't have linux-kernel-2.6.31-14 installed, but the boot image is still there
[15:10] <wzssyqa> Yanick_: did you copy a kernel there,yourself?
[15:10] <Yanick_> Dr_Willis, I specified in Synaptic to "completely remove" the linux-headers-2.x.x-x and it did, but grub still finds initrd-2.x.x-x, etc.
[15:10] <Yanick_> wzssyqa, of course not
[15:10] <Yanick_> wzssyqa, always used Synaptic
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> Yanick_:  i always just cheat and use the Ubuntu-tweak tool to clean mine..    when i bother to clean out kernels. :)
[15:11] <dsnyders> Yanick_, As far as I know, you have to manually remove boot images.  Grub has a mechanism for only showing the most recent, but it only drops them from the menu, not the machine.
[15:11] <wzssyqa> Yanick_: del it
[15:11] <Yanick_> wel.... this should get fixed in the uninstall process
[15:11] <major_redhat> dsnyders: how old was your laptop?
[15:11] <dsnyders> major_redhat, two years, maybe three.
[15:12] <leander_craig> so just configured all my hardware , looking to optimize mt ubuntu box , any advice?
[15:12] <leander_craig> boot time
[15:12] <dsnyders> major_redhat, Original battery.
[15:12] <Yanick_> wzssyqa, alright. wasn't sure it was safe; I was asking first
[15:12] <major_redhat> dsnyders: 15 - 20 minutes sounds about right for the original battery
[15:12] <Yanick_> Dr_Willis, where is the grub menu.lst file in Ubuntu 9.10 ?
[15:12] <wzssyqa> Yanick_: have a livecd
[15:12] <leander_craig> yanick , boot
[15:13] <wzssyqa> Yanick_: and move the files
[15:13] <leander_craig> ./boot/grub
[15:13] <dsnyders> major_redhat, The thing that irks me is that the fall-off isn't gradual.  Two weeks ago I was getting 30-45 minutes of battery life, then poof! 15 minutes.
[15:13] <Dr_Willis>  Yanick_  grub2 does it differently
[15:14] <Yanick_> leander_craig, menu.lst is neither in /boot nor /boot/grub
[15:14] <wzssyqa> Yanick_: it depens whether you upgrade or new-install
[15:14] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | Yanick_
[15:14] <Yanick_> Dr_Willis, will that be in 10.04?
[15:14] <TardisGuy> Yanick_: its still under boot
[15:14] <chili555> Yanick_, did you remove linux-headers _and_ linux-image??
[15:14] <major_redhat> dsnyders: have you ever performed a battery reset? (if your power manager utility allows you to do that)
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> Yanick_:  grub2 is also in 10.04 and its in 9.04
[15:15] <Yanick_> chili555, on the 2.6.31-14 that I don't have the package installed anymore only so far
[15:15] <Yanick_> chili555, yes
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> or was it 9.10.. i get my #'s wrong
[15:15] <leander_craig> yanick , mine is right there 9.10 -- try -- gksudo nautilus , unhide files ..
[15:15] <dsnyders> major_redhat, I tried that back when my battery lasted about an hour.  It didn't change things any.
[15:15] <abhi_nav> how to make a keyboard shortcut for any application? e.g. I want a keyboard shortcut for pidgin. likewise (in future I wll create for thunderbird etc etc)
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  the gconf editor tool lets you do that. or 'ubuntu-tweak' tool
[15:16] <major_redhat> dsnyders: the majority of the batteries we get at my college (all 9-cell, 85 Whr) tend to die a month after the 1 year warranty has expired
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  or i think compiz settings can also doit
[15:16] <Yanick_> leander_craig, in the console, the files does not exist
[15:16] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: how to do that? I also have compiz
[15:16] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: system -> perference
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  check the settings
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> !ccsm | abhi_nav
[15:16] <KIAaze> ubuntu wiki is sloooooow :(
[15:17] <Yanick_> leander_craig, unless this is Windows, ls -a should list all files.... menu.lst is NOT in /boot/grub
[15:17] <cyberbluntz> kismet isnt showing me the essid, how to fix?
[15:17] <Dr_Willis> leander_craig:  grub2 dosent use a menu.lst  it has other names
[15:17] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: & wzssyqa: in system=preferences=keyboard shortcuts it is asking for name and command. what is the command?
[15:17] <leander_craig> eeh , is there a grub2 any where
[15:17] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  whatever command you want to run
[15:17] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: which application?
[15:17] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: i want to open pidgin
[15:18] <abhi_nav> wqssyq: pidgin
[15:18] <wzssyqa> leander_craig: grub.cfg
[15:18] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: pidgin
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:   see what the pidgin icon launches..
[15:18] <bran_> yeah just type in pidgin for the command
[15:18] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: means? how to see that?
[15:18] <Yanick_> alright. manually deleting the vmlinuz-* and initrd.img-* files, then updating grub seems to work
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  use the menu editor.. or drag the ocon from the menu to the desktop and check its properties
[15:19] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: and where is keyboard shortcut option in compiz setting?
[15:19] <Yanick_> this should be done automatically when removing linux-headers-* packages
[15:19] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: the programer is  hunman
[15:19] <[diablo]> bravo Ubuntu... at last we have decent brand artwork and colors :-) bring on the dancing girls ;-)
[15:19] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: ok
[15:19] <bran_> keyboard sgortcuts in preferences
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  in there some where.. but if you are using the gnome tools. You dont want to use the compiz ones
[15:19] <[diablo]> looks great btw
[15:19] <knxville> Hi, is it possible with gparted, to break up a partition and make two? for example, I have ubuntu as one partition at the moment, at the size of 500 GB, can I break it up, so I have One ubuntu, and one windows?
[15:19] <knxville> Without formatting
[15:19] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: actually I dotn know what gnome tools is. where it is located? should need to download it? or it is already in my pc?
[15:20] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  some one mentioned it earlier.. or use the gconf editor.. or the ubuntu-tweak tool
[15:20] <Yanick_> alright, rebooting now
[15:21] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: Please tell me where these tools are. I dont know in details about them.
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  gee.. the perferances -> Keyboard shortcuts ... seems a logicel place...
[15:21] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: I am there only.
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  or you INSTALL ubuntu-tweak or learn to use the gconf editor.. (not reccomended)
[15:22] <koniu> hello
[15:22] <koniu> I am looking for a canal irc with programming
[15:22] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: drag the menu entry to gedit

[15:22] <wzssyqa> abhi_nav: and you can see how it words
[15:22] <trelayne> all, does anyone know where I can set the default browser to use when I click on a link in an application?

[15:23] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis: and wzssyqa: ok Done!!! I have added shortcut usign command 'pidgin'. Thankyou for help. :)

[15:30] <shuli> hi all!
[15:30] <Dr_Willis> I still cant figure out how to disable that annoying 'This Disk is a Photo Disk Open  [fprot]' message at the top of the files area in the fule manager. :)
[15:30] <Dr_Willis> its annoying because its always WRONG. :)
[15:31] <shuli> bye!
[15:31] <shuli> quit
[15:31] <bran_> have you tried other distros or version of ubuntu/
[15:31] <bran_> ?
[15:31] <shuli> exit
[15:31] <cyberbluntz> HEY why is ubuntu shipping me a kismet a year out of date?!?!
[15:31] <nallep> bran_ no just this one
[15:31] <nallep> ubuntu 9.10 desktop edition
[15:32] <bran_> hmm have you tested the disc integreity?
[15:32] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:  ubuntu updates everything every 6 months with each new release. Thats how it works.
[15:32] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:  if you want newest use PPA repos or source.
[15:32] <nallep> bran_ when I try to check disk integrety on the laptop it freezes up, when I burned the disk on my desktop I checked that it burned correctly
[15:33] <aniita> yo no quiero hablar en ingles
[15:33] <obiwan_> aniita: entra en #ubuntu-es
[15:33] <cyberbluntz> everytime i try to compile something i get tons of errors
[15:33] <obiwan_> aniita: ahi hablan espa├▒ol
[15:33] <cyberbluntz> I downloaded the source and headers
[15:33] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:  you need to install all needed dev and lib-dev packages the program needs
[15:33] <vaix> what does "SAUCE" mean in the ubuntu kernel patches?
[15:34] <cyberbluntz> and actually mr.willis, they shipped me a ver from 08
[15:34] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:  the apt-get build-deps command can help woth that
[15:34] <cyberbluntz> ok ty
[15:35] <zicada> so, anywhere to grab the new theme yet for testing ?
[15:35] <Pici> cyberbluntz: The version that is in Ubuntu is the same one that is in Debian.
[15:35] <zicada> im sure this has been asked a few billion times already heh
[15:35] <cyberbluntz> E: Invalid operation build-deps
[15:35] <cyberbluntz> is it debs?
[15:35] <cyberbluntz> no
[15:35] <Dr_Willis> zicada:  thers tons of 'themse that may be in 10.04' packages/repos out :)
[15:35] <Pici> cyberbluntz: apt-get build-dep packagename
[15:35] <DodoBird> I assume it'd be in the repositories and you could update to grab it.
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> !apt | cyberbluntz
[15:36] <leander_craig> compwiz vs beryl
[15:36] <DodoBird> If not, no idea.
[15:36] <Pici> !beryl | leander_craig
[15:36] <skrite> hey gents, having some trouble with mysql replication. i have slave io running yes, but slave sql running no
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> leander_craig:  beryl is dead
[15:36] <gutts> hello
[15:36] <poke456> wow
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> leander_craig:  so thers no comparison
[15:36] <major_redhat> what replaced beryl?
[15:36] <gutts> is audacity 1.3.11 exists on hardy ?
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> major_redhat:  compiz did.
[15:36] <zicada> Dr_Willis: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brand
[15:36] <zicada> Dr_Willis: i mean that
[15:36] <obiwan_> vaix SAUCE refers to the fact that this patch might not go upstream, but we need to
[15:36] <obiwan_> +# carry it to successive releases.
[15:36] <leander_craig> pici , why ?
[15:37] <Pici> leander_craig: Why? Because thats what the Compiz and Beryl developers decided.
[15:37] <Dr_Willis> leander_craig:  beryl has been dead i think for like 2 years now
[15:37] <major_redhat> Dr_Willis: figured
[15:37] <leander_craig> oh is it thats news @ wills
[15:37] <leander_craig> :P
[15:38] <Dr_Willis> Youve been under a rock :) or somthing hehe
[15:38] <leander_craig> new to ubuntu :P
[15:38] <Dr_Willis> leander_craig:  not really ubuntu related.. other disrtos are also using compiz-fusion which is what they called it when they merged beryl and compiz
[15:39] <leander_craig> dr_wills , windows dosent  :P
[15:39] <DodoBird> Of course it's going to take a big hit soon, since Gnome 3.0 won't support it for compositing, unless the devs have changed their minds on that.
[15:40] <rycole> hi all. im using ubuntu server, and im trying to figure out how to properly create a single logical drive out of two physical drives. ive read up on Parted, but i dont quite understand where to start. does what i want to do require both Parted and an LVM install?
[15:40] <rycole> or do i just install using the entire disk of one of the drives, and Parted will bring in the other?
[15:40] <rycole> LVM install just seems to create a small partition on one of the drives
[15:41] <knxville> Hi, is it possible with gparted, to break up a partition and make two? for example, I have ubuntu as one partition at the moment, at the size of 500 GB, can I break it up, so I have One ubuntu, and one windows?
[15:42] <DodoBird> knxville: Yep, quite easy, in fact.
[15:42] <wzssyqa> knxville: yes ,you can
[15:42] <knxville> DodoBird, alright.. thanks.
[15:42] <DodoBird> Although there is a problem, come to think of it...
[15:43] <knxville> DodoBird, what should that be?
[15:43] <wzssyqa> knxville: it is a time cost work
[15:43] <DodoBird> It's not with the partition, but rather that Windows overwrites GRUB as it installs. Or it used to, anyhow.
[15:43] <w3rt> after installing windows just use a ubuntu live cd to reinstall grub
[15:43] <ciastek> any news about opening beta of ubuntu music store?
[15:43] <DodoBird> At which point you'll need to boot back into Linux with a LiveCD or USB key or something, and fix up grub... yeah, what he said.
[15:44] <DodoBird> ciastek: I assume it's still a ways off, unless they mentioned something yesterday that I missed.
[15:44] <knxville> DodoBird, do you have a guide or anything?
[15:44] <DodoBird> knxville: Afraid not. I'm not on my Linux machine atm. It's a pretty common thing to do... just search for a guide and I'm sure someone will have put one up.
[15:45] <knxville> DodoBird, Alright, thanks
[15:45] <trism> knxville: for grub2 on ubuntu 9.10, this works https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD

[15:46] <trism> knxville: yes, I thought you meant a guide to recover grub after you were done
[15:46] <trism> knxville: sorry
[15:46] <ciastek> DodoBird: ^
[15:48] <chiiiiiz> Hi!!!
[15:48] <cyberbluntz> but cant seem to find the libncurses or libcurses
[15:49] <Luke_> I have ubuntu copied over from an external disk. But abot the third time  boot it up it freezes. I am able to get into it through failsafe Gnome what should i do?
[15:49] <Dr_Willis> !find libcurses
[15:49] <cyberbluntz> I'm trying to compile a prog and need these files
[15:49] <Mateo_> i please need some help with sed ... i would like, in a folder, to replace EVERY <? occurences with <?php but i of course, don't want it to happend to <? that already are followed by php
[15:49] <trism> !libncurses5-dev | cyberbluntz
[15:49] <chiiiiiz> I have purchased a Verbatim disk, it is formated FAT32. I have lost 150 Go of files... Even when I show the hidden files, even in the .trashes... there is nothing... but when I do a df command, it tells me that I only have 350 Go free... My 150Go files are not digitally gone... but where are they?
[15:50] <cyberbluntz> good nough
[15:50] <trism> cyberbluntz: well the bot it acting strange, but that's the library
[15:50] <pat__> hello
[15:50] <chiiiiiz> hi!
[15:50] <cyberbluntz> ty
[15:50] <pat__> do you speak french ?!?
[15:50] <chiiiiiz> I do
[15:50] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, did you lost some file or just have the available space counter wrong?
[15:50] <poke456> non
[15:50] <Mateo_> i do, too
[15:51] <cyberbluntz> !fr | chiiiiiz
[15:51] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, did you lost some file or just have the available space counter wrong?
[15:51] <pat__> ok merci !!!
[15:51] <chiiiiiz> Nitsuga: I did lost files... as far as I know, I did not empty the bin... but I can't find my files anywhere
[15:52] <abhi_nav>  #ubuntu-fr for french
[15:52] <cyberbluntz> Now for the libpcap?
[15:52] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, did you try to use baobab to find the files?
[15:52] <chiiiiiz> I guess they are still on the disk, but the "catalog" that says where they are does not find them... otherwise it would says I have my 500 Go free
[15:52] <chiiiiiz> baobab? I did not know this*
[15:53] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, alt f2> baobab
[15:53] <trism> cyberbluntz: apt-cache search -n package_name; will generally find the libraries you need
[15:53] <cyberbluntz> thx
[15:53] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, and click explore filesystem
[15:53] <cyberbluntz> that going into my cmd list
[15:53] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:    sudo apt-get build-dep
[15:53] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:    sudo apt-get build-dep  PACKAGENAME
[15:54] <Luke_> I have ubuntu copied over from an external disk. But abot the third time  boot it up it freezes. I am able to get into it through failsafe Gnome what should i do?
[15:54] <chiiiiiz> Nitsuga: work on progress... thanks
[15:54] <kaje> I just updated my 9.10 box and now I can't log in at the GDM screen... I was able to switch to a VC, stop GDM, and startx successfully... Anyone else experiencing this?
[15:54] <cyberbluntz> o its build dep not deps?
[15:54] <kaje> This is actually the second box this has happened to me on... both 9.10 machines
[15:54] <obiwan_> guys, do you know if apt uses its own fetch program or wget or something?
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> cyberbluntz:  tab completion works for a great many commands to fill in arguments... and theres the docs :)
[15:55] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, good luck ;)
[15:55] <cyberbluntz> thx doc
[15:55] <knxville> DodoBird, What filesystem is the optimal for windows?
[15:55] <cyberbluntz> can I call you doc?
[15:55] <mrkim> Running 9.10, took an update this morning and now all I get is a blank ubuntu screen after inputting login /username info
[15:55] <chiiiiiz> Nitsuga: it has analysed the Verbatim disk: it has found nothing... so I guess the free space counter must be wrong...
[15:55] <kaje> mrkim: I'm getting the same thing...
[15:56] <kaje> Anyone know what the problem is?
[15:56] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, baobab is a free space explorer
[15:56] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, look for a big folder with your files
[15:56] <Nitsuga> i have to go.
[15:56] <DodoBird> knxville: I generally stick with NTFS, but I'm not running Linux and Windows on the same machine. If I recall, it's easy enough for Linux to now deal with NTFS paritions using FUSE, though.
[15:56] <mrkim> I am on a second machine an have done the update but not yet restarted
[15:56] <cyberbluntz> so this will do all the ./configure, make, and make install?
[15:57] <Nitsuga> chiiiiiz, but to reset the free space counter use fsck-vaft after umounting the partition.
[15:57] <Pici> cyberbluntz: No.  That will get and install the package's build dependencies. Like all those -dev packages that you're looking for now.
[15:57] <Pici> !checkinstall | cyberbluntz You should also look into using checkinstall
[15:58] <chiiiiiz> thyanks
[15:58] <Holzster> ./wi Pici
[15:58] <rycole> wow, i never knew about checkinstall.
[15:58] <rycole> that sounds really helpful.
[15:58] <mrkim> anyone besides kaje and myself having problems logging in after update today?
[15:59] <kaolbrec> knxville, read and write from NTFS works fine now, aside from occasional permission issues.
[15:59] <Dr_Willis> if a older version is in the repos that 'build-dep' option saves a LOT of time in compiling new versions
[16:00] <sam_> anyone know of a microsoft project alternative ( i have tried open-proj and found it buggy)
[16:00] <Gibby> How could my Ubuntu be booting without Grub?
[16:00] <mrkim> I have tried going into recovery mode and chosen repair, etc. but it says there are no issues
[16:00] <sam_> Gibby,  Lilo?
[16:00] <cyberbluntz> ooh, got a new wireshark dev too
[16:00] <mrkim> I also tried booting into an older kernel version and still the same result
[16:01] <sam_> Gibby, or the windows one, I forget what it is called
[16:01] <Gibby> sam_, I do not see Lilo being installed either
[16:01] <sam_> windowz bootloader or something?
[16:01] <tdn> How to turn wlan0 into an access point?
[16:02] <cyberbluntz> still missed the libl-devel
[16:02] <Gibby> sam_, nope no windows either
[16:02] <sam_> dunno then, sorry
[16:02] <cyberbluntz> if you guys might want to fix that
[16:02] <Gibby> I think Grub is installed but I do not have a menu.lst, when I try to run grub, it tells me it is  not installed
[16:02] <inja> how come my numlock dont work
[16:02] <Luke_> hey i have a new Gateway from best buy  i have copied over, using Gparted, the partition i used for ubuntu to a partition on my laptop.  i can boot into the computer, but when i use regular GNOME it fails.  but if i use failsafe everything is fine. any suggestions
[16:02] <Gibby> If I install grub, will it mess anything up since I have a custom kernel and everything....
[16:03] <Mohammad[B]> how i can change my resolution in my Virtual Machine for ubuntu ? http://img2.pict.com/fa/b0/6e/3030542/0/scr009.jpg
[16:03] <Luke_> Gibby it shouldn't depending on if you know how to set it up
[16:03] <Gibby> Mohammad[B], try to change in the the microsoft program
[16:03] <kaje> mrkim: I worked around it, but I'm still not sure what caused it...
[16:03] <Dr_Willis> Mohammad[B]:  install the vbox guest addations.
[16:03] <Gibby> Luke_, so I should just be able to do apt-get install grub?
[16:04] <obscurant1st> which is the best im client with webcam support for ubuntu?
[16:04] <Luke_> yes
[16:04] <mrkim> Anyone have suggestions with a boot up problem since the most recent update in 9.10?
[16:04] <bin1010> what is linux-image-2.6.31-20-generic-pae mean...mostly I am curious about the pae part?
[16:04] <Gibby> Luke_, it says I have grub-pc installed and it will remove that to install grub
[16:04] <Luke_> but i would consider how many partitions you have firsrt
[16:04] <theadmin> HELP!!! Something's blocking the /var/cache/debconf/config.dat file, and i can't use tasksel!
[16:04] <bin1010> my other ubuntu box just says generic
[16:04] <Dr_Willis> bin1010:  lets 32bit kernel handle more then 4gb ram.. rarely needed
[16:04] <wzssyqa> bin1010: it support big mem
[16:04] <inja> Is this a help channel?
[16:05] <bin1010> ah....thanks
[16:05] <abhi_nav> inja: yes
[16:05] <Pici> inja: Yes, this is the  Official Ubuntu Support Channel
[16:05] <Mohammad[B]> Dr_Willis, where is this "vbox guest addations" ?
[16:05] <inja> how do i enable my numlock
[16:05] <nuki> hello
[16:05] <Gibby> Luke_, I have 2 750gb harddrives in a raid1 with a lvm on top of that then 6 logical volumes
[16:05] <nuki> how are you?
[16:05] <Dr_Willis> Mohammad[B]:  in the vbox menus.. and check the vbox docs to learn more about them
[16:05] <kaje> mrkim: Switch to a VC (Ctrl + Alt + F1) and log in. Then delete ~/.gnome2 and ~/.gnome2_private.  Start up X manually (startx). Log out of that session. Start up gdm (sudo service gdm start). And it seems to be fixed...
[16:05] <bin1010> ubuntu......have I told you that you are doing a great job today?    you are....
[16:06] <arand> bin1010: pae roughly means you can use more than ~3.4GB of memory on 32bit, wikipedia has a good page in Physical Address Extension if you want to dig further.
[16:06] <Luke_> then i would use pc-grub  or, maybe its grub-pc
[16:06] <kaje> Some of those steps may be unnecessary, but that's exactly what I did to fix things...
[16:06] <Luke_> try sudo apt-get install pc-grub  if that doesnt work try sudo apt-get install grub-pc
[16:06] <mrkim> I hate to be dumb kaje but when do I make that switch to VC?
[16:07] <VCoolio> kaje: you may want to be more specific about .gnome2, if you delete that whole folder also gedit plugins and nautilus scripts go down the drain
[16:07] <Gibby> Luke_, it says grub-pc is already at its newest
[16:07] <bin1010> I don't miss Windows at all...sure wish though that open office was a closer replacement to MS office....  programs that produce rtf don't look same in OO as they do in MS Word... :(
[16:07] <theadmin> I'll go restart, sec.
[16:07] <Luke_> then try update-grub
[16:07] <Luke_> sudo update-grub
[16:07] <arand> Gibby: grub-pc is grub2 whareas if you install the grub package you'll get grub-legacy (grub1)
[16:08] <arand> !grub2 | Gibby
[16:08] <kaje> VCoolio: Oh I didn't know that... I don't use either of those.
[16:08] <Gibby> arand, I see that, just found the readme for it, i just ran update-grub and it found 5 images
[16:08] <kaje> mrkim: You switch to the VC first
[16:09] <arand> Gibby: Note that grub2 doesn't use menu.lst but grub.cfg which is edited indirectly through /etc/default/grub
[16:09] <kaje> mrkim: Virtual console just lets you log in to your system without any graphics involved
[16:09] <nuki> hello
[16:09] <nuki> :)
[16:09] <arand> !hi | nuki
[16:09] <Luke_> then you shoud be good at boot it should list all images and OSes  but if you find that you can't boot try super grub disk  i suggest burning a copy before shutting down the computer
[16:10] <sam_> Anyone got any good project management software tips (not openproj)
[16:10] <Gibby> Luke_, already got it, just trying to boot to SU without a disk so I can resize a LV
[16:10] <obscurant1st> which is the best im client with webcam support for ubuntu?
[16:10] <Luke_> ok
[16:10] <kaje> mrkim and VCoolio: I'm not sure that all those steps are required to get gdm working again. If I had to bet, I would say that it is actually the logging off of the X session you started with startx that is cleaning something up that the update screwed up...
[16:10] <solow> http://xkcd.com/456/
[16:10] <solow> so true
[16:10] <obscurant1st> at least wt you guys recommend?
[16:11] <arand> solow: #ubuntu-offtopic < ;)
[16:11] <solow> why. people here don't like to laugh once in a while?
[16:11] <Luke_> hey i have a new Gateway from best buy  i have copied over, using Gparted, the partition i used for ubuntu to a partition on my laptop.  i can boot into the computer, but when i use regular GNOME it fails.  but if i use failsafe everything is fine. any suggestions
[16:11] <DodoBird> solow: Only for some people. I don't mind tinkering to get stuff exactly the way I like, but I loathe tinkering just to have to get the damn OS to work as it should've in the first place.
[16:12] <mrkim> Ok, I'm in the VC but unsure how to proceed.  Not a "terminal hero" :>)
[16:12] <Gibby> going to try to reboot, thanks everyone
[16:12] <Luke_> welcome
[16:12] <obscurant1st> any of you gys know a gnome alternative for kopete?
[16:12] <kaje> mrkim: First stop gdm: sudo service gdm stop
[16:13] <Luke_> i need help with Gnome
[16:13] <kaje> mrkim: Then, try starting X manually: startx
[16:13] <solow> DodoBird, Well, sorry, I guess.
[16:14] <kaje> mrkim: Are you looking at your graphical desktop now?
[16:14] <inja> how do i enable my numlock?
[16:14] <cyberbluntz> ok heres where I'm at, do you see any more error I can fix plz? http://pastebin.com/1CZzef5R
[16:14] <DodoBird> solow: Sorry? I don't get it. Oh well, nevermind.
[16:15] <chazco> Hi... I have a duel-boot system setup on my netbook between Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7... is there any way to add a "Reboot to Windows" shortcut to Ubuntu (and a "Reboot to Ubuntu" shortcut on Windows)?
[16:15] <mrkim> Ok, stopped gdm & then entered startx and have a black screen
[16:15] <cyberbluntz> no
[16:15] <solow> DodoBird, Oh, you weren't criticizing my url, you were talking about it :P
[16:15] <cyberbluntz> unless you can configure a grub, whats the point?
[16:15] <DodoBird> Yep.
[16:16] <Luke_> i need help with Gnome when i boot up with regular Gnome my computer freezes but with failsafe im fine  any suggestions?
[16:16] <kaje> mrkim: hmm, maybe we do have to delete those two folders... ok, go back to the VC (Ctrl + Alt + F1)
[16:16] <dehqan> Is this package on 9.04 or 9.10 ? libc6_2.10.1-0ubuntu15_i386
[16:17] <blockcold> hello this error is happening "omiting error"
[16:17] <arand> chazco: In ubuntu you should be able to run a script which sets the grub default entry, for windows I'm guessing it might be quite a bit trickier..
[16:17] <mrkim> Done
[16:17] <mgolisch> trelayne: depends/redraw
[16:17] <mgolisch> ups
[16:17] <kaje> mrkim: Hit Ctrl + C to kill the X session... this should bring back the terminal prompt
[16:17] <chazco> arand - Thats what I was expecting... a while ago I ran a version of Linux which worked this way... think it used loadlin with Windows 95/98... got used to it
[16:18] <mrkim> Ok, now I'm back to a login
[16:18] <jareth_> why is the athk9 driver still shitty, even after the latest kernel update? again i'm forced to use the linux-backports-modules-2.6.31-20-generic package to get wifi functioning properly...
[16:18]  * dehqan solved http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/karmic/i386/libc6/download
[16:18] <blockcold> hello how to install kde in xubuntu
[16:18] <kaje> mrkim: Do you use gedit or nautilus scripts?
[16:19] <mrkim> usinf sudo su I logged in as root
[16:19] <mrkim> I use gedit
[16:19] <Luke_> when i boot my computer freezes!!!!!!!!!
[16:19] <kaje> mrkim: do you use any plugins in gedit?
[16:19] <Luke_> ubuntu 9.04
[16:20] <jareth_> i don't understand why this old bugreport has been closed after all.... -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-backports-modules-2.6.28/+bug/379861
[16:20] <kaje> mrkim: oh, you should log out of root... Did you give the "startx" command while root?
[16:21] <skydrome> does anyone know if getdeb.net is down for good?
[16:22] <mrkim> Ok as root how do I get back to user in terminal?  I'm not sure if I was running as root when I did the previous command
[16:22] <banisterfiend> how do i find out what version of adobe flash im running in chrome?
[16:22] <jareth_> thing which really buggs the hell out of me, is that the mentioned workaround still improves my wfi signal with 30%!!!
[16:22] <arand> chazco: In grub2 what you would need to do is edit the GRUB_DEFAULT= entry in /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub to propagate it to the grub.cfg file, unfortunately this is not an instantaneous operation..
[16:22] <kaje> mrkim: to drop out of root, just enter "exit"
[16:23] <jareth_> why are the fixes in backports repo not actively pushed ?
[16:23] <bbbbb> quit
[16:23] <mrkim> OK, back to user.  I'm not sure of what plugins I have for gedit
[16:23] <chazco> arand - Sorry, got disconnected... i was thinking of something like that... sounds like it'll be more trouble than it's worth though. Nevermind :)
[16:23] <jareth_> at least someone with an opinion on this?
[16:24] <kaje> ok, try doing the startx command again as the regular user
[16:25] <mrkim> did it and went to a black screen kaje
[16:26] <kaje> mrkim: ok, switch back to the VC (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and kill the X session (Ctrl+C)
[16:27] <pretto> what is the font used to create the new brand?
[16:27] <dehqan> is this command true
[16:27] <kaje> mrkim: next, create a temp folder called temp-hidden and move two directories to it: mv ~/.gnome* temp-hidden/
[16:27] <dehqan>  for i in $(/2); do apt-get --reinstall -install $i; done
[16:27] <mrkim> OK, now I have a mesage stating unexpected signal 2.
[16:27] <dehqan> 2 is a file in /
[16:27] <Luke_> when i boot my computer freezes!!!!!!!!!
[16:27] <kaje> mrkim: make sure there is no space before the * in that command
[16:28] <kaje> mrkim: to create that folder, do this command: mkdir temp-hidden
[16:28] <Archy1987> how to add equalizer to Totem Movie Player ?
[16:28] <mrkim> entered "temp-hidden" and it states command not found
[16:28] <mrkim> what pre-command do I need
[16:29] <Archy1987> how to add equalizer to Totem Movie Player ?
[16:29] <VCoolio> dehqan: make that $(cat /2)
[16:29] <kaje> mrkim: to create the directory do the following: mkdir temp-hidden
[16:29] <cyberbluntz> hey guys if you can make checkinstall behave with the fact that to run securely kismet needs to install a suid-root helper app
[16:29] <cyberbluntz> how?
[16:29] <kaje> mrkim: to move the gnome directories, do the following: mv ~/.gnome* temp-hidden/
[16:30] <dehqan> VCoolio: says E: Command line option 'i' [from -install] is not known.
[16:30] <obiwan_> guys, anybody knows what Hit in apt-get update means?
[16:30] <VCoolio> dehqan: ah yes. --reinstall, double -
[16:30] <VCoolio> dehqan: nope, wrong again, no -- at all
[16:31] <dehqan>  for i in $(cat /2); do apt-get reinstall -install $i; done    VCoolio?
[16:31] <VCoolio> dehqan: apt-get --reinstall install   << that's the one
[16:31] <mrkim> Ok, done with that
[16:32] <mrkim> back to ~$
[16:32] <kaje> mrkim: now try doing the startx command
[16:32] <mrkim> argh, back to black screen again
[16:33] <kaje> hmm, I don't know then... you've done exactly what I did to fix it...
[16:33] <captainc> I'm trying to install ubuntu cd-less from windows; my computer is having issues with installing from both cd-rom and usb from unetbootin. I am trying unetbootin and grub4dos and I can boot from grub to a minimal busybox.
[16:33] <kaje> You are sure that you stopped the gdm, right?
[16:33] <captainc> I want to be able to mount the ISO and install, but I have been unsuccessful.
[16:33] <mrkim> at what point in the process?  I tried mimicing each command you gave
[16:34] <kaje> the first thing should have been: sudo service gdm stop
[16:34] <mrkim> no I didn't enter that command :>(
[16:34] <kaje> oh
[16:34] <kaje> ok, do that one, and then do the startx command
[16:35] <IcyJ> is it just me or does gnome-do have a HUGE memory problem?  I can watch the memory usage grow almost 1mb a minute...
[16:35] <mrkim> I tried CTl ALT F1 and now get nowhere
[16:35] <DodoBird> IcyJ: Just you. Or more likely, your version of Gnome-Do. Which version number are you using?
[16:35] <IcyJ> <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:36] <VCoolio> IcyJ: I thought that had improved; but try kupfer instead http://kaizer.se/wiki/kupfer/
[16:36] <kaje> mrkim: You can switch to another VC by hitting Ctrl + Alt + F2
[16:36] <DodoBird> IcyJ: I'd ditch it and try the one from the PPA instead. It's stable and I've had no trouble with it at all.
[16:36] <mrkim> nope
[16:36] <kaje> F1 - F6 each give you a separate VC to use...
[16:36] <IcyJ> Dodobird - I'll look for the PPA, thanks
[16:36] <mrkim> ok F3 worked
[16:38] <kaje> mrkim: Need the steps again?
[16:38] <happyface> why does wifi not work unless I do "wlan0 up" THEN restart ubuntu?
[16:38] <happyface> every time
[16:39] <dehqan> a package is installed from 9.10 rep , but now it can not be downloaded and reinstalled from 9.04 rep , why ?
[16:39] <mrkim> Kaje, got past startx and it now says Fatal server error
[16:39] <Gangrel> anyone knows where and how i can upgrade from openoffice 3.1 to openoffice 3.2
[16:39] <jareth_> happyface: atheros wifi card by any chance?
[16:39] <mrkim> server is already active for display 0
[16:40] <kaje> mrkim: ok, then X is still not being shut down somewhere
[16:40] <arundracula> Today when I entered Ubuntu the mouse speed was very slow.. What is this?
[16:40] <cyberbluntz> how do i get to system groups?
[16:40] <kaje> back at a virtual console, enter this: ps -A | grep X
[16:40] <mrkim> Ok, how do I shut it down, should I reboot the machine?
[16:41] <kaje> rebooting the machine would probably be the simplest way
[16:41] <davertron> hi guys, i was wondering if there was a way to configure apt-get to have repositories on a per user basis, and maybe have it install anything from the per user repos to a specific place (i.e. user's home dir) instead of system-wide?  The reason i ask is i have a server running an older version of ubuntu (8.04), and i want to update some software (vim) for myself, but not affect the systme as a whole, and if i could avoid c
[16:41] <davertron> ompiling myself (and screwing up and not doing it correctly) that would be great :)
[16:42] <happyface> jareth_: no intel 4965agn
[16:42] <mrkim> Ok, I enetreed the last commands you gave and am back to a user
[16:43] <kaje> mrkim: so you have rebooted and are back at a terminal?
[16:43] <mrkim> no, just entered the last command set

[16:43] <mrkim> so I'm back at ~$
[16:43] <happyface> why does wifi not work unless I do "wlan0 up" THEN restart ubuntu every time? (intel)
[16:44] <xae8koo> Does ubuntu have a built in gui to encrypt porn?
[16:44] <soreau> davertron: The package management system is designed as a system administrator tool that installs packages for all users system wide. It may be possible to install a particular package in a specific prefix with dpkg, but you would have to read it's man page and see for sure

[16:44] <mrkim> no I don't see that line kaje

[16:56] <DNil> yes
[16:56] <goose> is it okay to put my server's real IP and FQDN in /etc/hosts ?

[17:02] <MartinCleaver> Am running eeebuntu (I think 9.04). I installed gparted and rebooted. Now my machine won't start the window manager. I tried to run the recovery / dpkg option - it wanted me to upgrade: I said no. How can I diagnose what is wrong?
[17:02] <kaje> mrkim: I really don't know what's going on... Sorry
[17:02] <soreau> root_: I don't know what python soya is or why it would break SDL..
[17:03] <kaje> mrkim: ps -A | grep gdm
[17:03] <kaje> mrkim: any lines?
[17:03] <root_> soreau: its not only that, i installed the mana world and it did it also

[17:03] <root_> soreau: but then i just got fed up and reinstalled ubuntu
[17:04] <reeeeeesty> i cant seem to detect it
[17:04] <reeeeeesty> i already updated to the kernel that supports it and installed the firmware (.fw) into lib/firmware
[17:04] <mrkim> Ok, in the command you gave me is that a lower case L in between -A and grep?
[17:04] <kaje> no, that is a pipe character
[17:05] <kaje> It is above the enter key on US keyboards

[17:06] <root_> soreau: but then i just got fed up and reinstalled ubuntu
[17:07] <mrkim> Ok, I'll try again.
[17:07] <root_> soreau: its not only that, i installed the mana world and it did it also
[17:07] <LostKarmic> Hello
[17:08] <soreau> DNil: it would be 'cp ~/.local/share/Trash/dom\ parser ~/Desktop' This should copy it to your desktop
[17:08] <LostKarmic> I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic)
[17:08] <LostKarmic> my problem is that I can't install most of the packages like proftpd, proftpd-basic or php5-mcrypt
[17:08] <soreau> root_: That is strange.. not sure why these program would affect your sdl install
[17:08] <LostKarmic> E: Package proftpd has no installation candidate
[17:08] <LostKarmic> replace proftpd whatever package name
[17:09] <soreau> root_: You can either file a bug report or, you could try and ask some sdl dev why it breaks like this
[17:09] <LostKarmic> I added universe and multiver to apt source list
[17:09] <mrkim> Ok kaje I entered the ps -A | grep gdm and am back to ~$
[17:09] <LostKarmic> didn't work
[17:09] <slash69> hallo

[17:09] <subspider> deos anyone know how to take out watermark from amd ??
[17:09] <trijntje> Hi all, since Karmic sound gives a loud crack just before it starts playing, any pointers on how to fix this?
[17:10] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: _usually_ the message "Package xxx has no installation candidate" means that the package name has changed
[17:10] <mrkim> nope, no lines
[17:10] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval: I also tryed to search for packages with aptitude but no proftpd nor php5-mcrypt :(
[17:10] <duncanidaho1> I have ubuntu 9.10 64-bit.  I'm using gnome, and I just decided to install kubuntu-desktop.  When I logout and switch to the KDE environment things get a little wierd.

I also noticed it does not connect to the internet when in a KDE session.  Any ideas?
[17:10] <kaje> mrkim: also try: ps -A | grep X
[17:10] <slash69> cc  v vc
[17:11] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: did you try proftpd-basic? that seems to be there (at least in Lucid)
[17:11] <blakkheim> duncanidaho1: mv ~/.config/autostart ~/
[17:11] <slash69>    ccccxxxxx
[17:11] <slash69> xx vds
[17:11] <mrkim> OK, no lines there either kaje
[17:11] <kaje> mrkim: good!
[17:12] <kaje> mrkim: grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[17:12] <duncanidaho1> @blakkheim do i put that in while in KDE or in gnome?
[17:12] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval: No candidate version found for proftpd-basic    I also tryed proftpd-mysql-mod orsomething.. none works
[17:12] <kaje> mrkim: this is scanning the X log for error messages...
[17:12] <blakkheim> duncanidaho1: log out of both and do it in a tty
[17:12] <kaje> mrkim: On mine, it shows two lines, but neither are error messages... If it is an error message, it will begin with (EE)
[17:13] <duncanidaho1> blakkheim: a tty?
[17:13] <blakkheim> duncanidaho1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tty_%28Unix%29
[17:13] <RHKratos> In Gnome, what's the difference between running a jar with "java -jar" and saying "open with sun java runtime" from the file browser? (default jre is the sun one)

[17:15] <lucid_interval> did you try doing an apt-get update? All indications are that proftpd _is_ the metapackage you need
[17:15] <LostKarmic> aptitude search proftp  find only gadmin-proftpd and gforge-ftp-proftpd
[17:15] <duncanidaho1> @ blakkheim so I need to restart the computer in recovery mode so I can get to the command prompt?
[17:15] <blakkheim> duncanidaho1: no, use ctrl+alt+f2
[17:15] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval: yes, but I can do it again :)
[17:15] <kaje> mrkim: just for a sanity check, try doing: sudo startx
[17:15] <duncanidaho1> @ blakkheim  oh ok
[17:16] <LostKarmic> apt-get update; apt-get install proftpd-basic "E: Package proftpd-basic has no installation candidate"
[17:16] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: BTW, proftpd is in universe - so make sure you have enabled the universe repository under software sources before you do the apt-get update
[17:16] <mrkim> No sanity there, just a black screen :>(
[17:17] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval:  deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic universe  this right?
[17:17] <kaje> mrkim: The X log doesn't show any errors... I am out of ideas at this point...
[17:17] <mrkim> Ok, thanks for your help and patience anyway!  Any ideas for a resource to turn to?
[17:17] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: yes
[17:18] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval: yep, everything uncommented, apt-get updated.. still nothing :(
[17:18] <dragster> hi
[17:18] <kaje> mrkim: No, you might ask further in this channel... This is where I come for the best support. I'm sorry we couldn't figure it out
[17:19] <duncanidaho1> @blakkheim I put it in, but I got no feedback as to if anything happened
[17:19] <mrkim> I have my other machine sitting here and have already taken the update, just haven't done the required restart and with this going on I don't think that's a prudent step just yet
[17:19] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: :-( last thing I can think of is do an apt-get -f install (fix any dependencies). Otherwise out of ideas.
[17:19] <blakkheim> duncanidaho1: that means it worked, now try logging into kde or whatever
[17:19] <dragster> does someone know how to make a server like thisone?
[17:19] <duncanidaho1> @blackheim  ok.  I'll be back.  Thanks for your help.
[17:19] <kaje> mrkim: probably wise
[17:20] <LostKarmic> Package proftpd-basic is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[17:20] <LostKarmic> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[17:20] <LostKarmic> is only available from another source
[17:20] <LostKarmic> E: Package proftpd-basic has no installation candidate
[17:20] <LostKarmic> didn't help, damn
[17:20] <sje46> Hi!  So I wanted to know how to host stuff on the internet for free, without a domain name, so I installed apache, and yeah.  But I'm not sure if anyone downloads anything from it if it will break my computer or anything
[17:20] <mrkim> Thanks again, I'll ask further here to see if there are any other ideas ;>)
[17:20] <sje46> because this is just a laptop
[17:20] <blakkheim> LostKarmic: i see proftpd-basic in my repos
[17:21] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: can you paste the output of: apt-cache policy proftpd-basic
[17:21] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: just the stuff after the ':'
[17:21] <MindVirus> Hello.  Anyone know how to kill maximus?
[17:21] <LostKarmic> (none)  (none)  empty line
[17:22] <LostKarmic> maybe somebody shares his sources file so I can diff them
[17:22] <blakkheim> LostKarmic: post your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin
[17:22] <LostKarmic> ok
[17:23] <sje46> does anyone know?  Say, for example, I host popular content on my computer, and submit it to reddit.  This is just a laptop.  Will that stop me from using the internet or something?
[17:23] <LostKarmic> blakkheim: http://pastebin.com/zj5U1d2z
[17:23] <uBOy> hello
[17:23] <uBOy> any girls
[17:23] <uBOy> looool
[17:23] <dehqan> what is the best ubuntu rep server ?
[17:24] <blakkheim> LostKarmic: replace it with this http://pastebin.com/iy9JrJdy and run sudo aptitude update
[17:24] <uBOy> hello
[17:24] <Red_HamsterX> dehqan, they're all mirrors. Just pick one close to your location.
[17:24] <dehqan> Red_HamsterX: which one has better badwich
[17:24] <reeeeeesty> how would i detect a usb fob?
[17:25] <reeeeeesty> so i can add the device name to my /etc/network/interfaces
[17:25] <Red_HamsterX> dehqan, that depends on where you live.
[17:25] <dehqan> Red_HamsterX: iran
[17:25] <aeiou_> is it recommended to configure domainkeys for a mailserver?
[17:25] <mrkim> Hi folks, I've been working with (a very patient) kaje here for a while but we couldn't get my issue sorted out. I'm running 9.10 and recievd an update notice this morning, took it, then restarted per instructions. After reboot the log in and user name screens come up and after entering these the same screen background as the username and passord screens is all that is on the screen. Any ideas?
[17:25] <aeiou_> (i've setup spf records already)
[17:26] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, the name could potentially change every time you connect it. If it's consistent between boots, though, just pull its name from the output of 'ifconfig'.
[17:26] <reeeeeesty> but how would i find it?
[17:26] <sje46> mrkim, you mean it's stil the login screen?  or the background for your desktop is that?
[17:26] <Red_HamsterX> dehqan, just try a few of them. They'll all have more bandwidth than any residential connection.
[17:26] <reeeeeesty> i updated the kernel to .32
[17:26] <cyberbluntz> will someone help me config my new kismet?
[17:26] <reeeeeesty> and i added the firmware
[17:26] <LostKarmic> blakkheim: it said I should to apt-get update too.. so I did it.. still doesn't work :(
[17:26] <reeeeeesty> now im trying to disable my pci and use my usb nic
[17:26] <LostKarmic> No candidate version found for proftpd-basic
[17:27] <mrkim> sje46, it's the background for the log in screen
[17:27] <reeeeeesty> like wlan0
[17:27] <sje46> mrkim, but there are icons?
[17:27] <reeeeeesty> what would my usb nic be?
[17:27] <reeeeeesty> since its atheros would it be ath0?
[17:27] <RHKratos> Using nautilus I can use a program to open a file, how do I see what command it's running?
[17:27] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, that's very likely.
[17:27] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, open a terminal and type 'ifconfig' and see what comes up.
[17:27] <sje46> mrkim, everythign still works, but it is the background of the login screen?
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> just my loopback, eth and pci card
[17:28] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, if you want more information related to wireless devices, use 'iwconfg'.
[17:28] <pasword001> ubuntu hungary chat?
[17:28] <Stargaze> RHKratos: try System > Administration > System orMonit
[17:28] <vaix> in ubuntu - when i try to do tab completion after a ssh command - it is sticking some hostnames in there - but I don't know where it is getting them from.   Where can I find that?
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> hmm, same
[17:28] <mrkim> No, there is no where to go from there, it's just a blank login screen background
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> cant find it
[17:28] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, have you restarted since upgrading your kernel?
[17:28] <Stargaze> RHKratos: try System > Administration > System Monitor
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> yeah
[17:28] <kuuh> has anyone an idea why an "/etc/init.d/openvpn start" doesn't create a new interface (e.g. tap0)?
[17:28] <PomkaLK> ąóčāčé čĆčāčüčüą║ąĖąĄ ąĄčüčéčī?
[17:28] <blakkheim> vaix: ~/.ssh/known_hosts probably
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> im in the .32 now
[17:28] <blakkheim> !ru | PomkaLK
[17:28] <reeeeeesty> and the firmware is in lib/firmware
[17:29] <mrkim> it's as if it's stuck in the login process
[17:29] <pasword001> ubuntu hungary chat?
[17:29] <reeeeeesty> hmm
[17:29] <Red_HamsterX> reeeeeesty, I'm going to need a little more information. Mind moving to PM to avoid the spam lockouts?
[17:29] <reeeeeesty> k
[17:29] <PomkaLK> I need good console irc client
[17:30] <VCoolio> PomkaLK: irssi or weechat
[17:30] <vaix> blakkheim: would make sense - but then shouldn't all SSH connected hosts populate in tab completion?  Shouldn't hosts I have never connected to - NOT complete?
[17:30] <PomkaLK> VCoolio: weechat no....irssi, what is good?
[17:30] <duncanidaho1> @blakkheim sorry no luck.  I still have the same problem
[17:30] <hiexpo> good morning everyone
[17:31] <lucid_interval> vaix: /etc/hosts
[17:31] <hiexpo> what is the easiest way to write to an ipod with ubuntu 9.10
[17:31] <blakkheim> vaix: check /etc/hosts like lucid_interval said to see if the hosts are listed there, if not you've got me stumped
[17:31] <vaix> lucid_interval: thanks.   that looks like it.   is this bash / ssh / some special ubuntu thing?
[17:31] <major_redhat> hiexpo: define 'write'
[17:32] <blakkheim> hiexpo: cp or mv
[17:32] <VCoolio> PomkaLK: irssi is most widely used; weechat is in python, but has scripts in other languages too, I like it; all important features available
[17:32] <hiexpo> major_redhat, - music
[17:32] <subspider> hiexpo, gtkpod
[17:32] <mrkim> Hi folks, I've been working with (a very patient) kaje here for a while but we couldn't get my issue sorted out. I'm running 9.10 and recievd an update notice this morning, took it, then restarted per instructions. After reboot the log in and user name screens come up and after entering these the same screen background as the username and passord screens is all that is on the screen. Any ideas?
[17:32] <lucid_interval> vaix: this is command completion (package is bash_completion I think)
[17:33] <vaix> lucid_interval: thanks alot - was very surprised just a second ago
[17:33] <pasword001>  would like a similar program which is similar to WebcamMax but can not find someone to tell me what program I could like to do?
[17:33] <major_redhat> hiexpo: i know that you can read the music from it via Rythymbox
[17:33] <RHKratos> Stargaze: that doesn't tell me what flags (if any) the application was started with, which is one of the things I would like to know
[17:33] <PomkaLK> VCoolio: in weechat i cant use /ns, why?
[17:33] <VCoolio> PomkaLK: what is /ns supposed to do?
[17:33] <subspider> does anyone know how to take out watermark from amd ???
[17:33] <major_redhat> hiexpo: but as far as writing music to it...you are better off trying to get iTunes to work under WINE
[17:33] <hiexpo> major_redhat,  yes i can see it in rymbox and thats great but i need to put musdic on it
[17:34] <duncanidaho1> blakkheim:  any other ideas to fix switching between ghome and kde?
[17:34] <hiexpo> i hate itunes
[17:34] <pasword001> magyar chat hol vann?
[17:34] <major_redhat> hiexpo: dont we all?
[17:34] <LostKarmic> Thank you guys! I got it fixed. I had a broken package list. Changed the mirror to something else, did a apt-get update and now everything works fine!
[17:34] <lucid_interval> mrkim: a few questions to help in analyzing. Do you use a proprietary graphics driver (Nvidia, ATI etc)? Did the update include a new kernel?
[17:34] <subspider> hiexpo, what is ipod it's touch??
[17:34] <pasword001> hungari ubunzu cat?
[17:34] <PomkaLK> VCoolio: register nick name for example, sorry for my english, im Russian))
[17:34] <hiexpo> i use to use a program that worked great with windows media player
[17:35] <hiexpo> subspider, the little 4 gig
[17:35] <x_> hi all i am trying to install google earth in ubuntu 9.10
[17:35] <subspider> hm ok
[17:35] <lucid_interval> LostKarmic: Glad you got it fixed.
[17:35] <mrkim> lucd  yes I am using glx 185 I think and the update seems to be a new kernel
[17:35] <hiexpo> when i connect it it loads on the desktop but i can not get it to load on gtk
[17:35] <pasword001> hungarian ubuntu  chat? hu ubuntu rom?
[17:35] <hiexpo> or hipo
[17:35] <LostKarmic> lucid_interval: Thank you for your time! :)
[17:36] <VCoolio> PomkaLK: first connect to a server, then use the default register commands
[17:36] <underdev> Hi!    Is there a way to grab an ubuntu desktop iso with all the current updates?
[17:36] <VCoolio> !register | PomkaLK
[17:36] <mrkim> sorry, that's an nVidia driver
[17:36] <lucid_interval> mrkim: you probably need to reinstall the proprietary graphics driver for the new kernel - usually involving a recompile step that the graphics driver would have done the first time.
[17:36] <x_> can i install google earth in ubuntu 9.10
[17:36] <IcyJ> underdev: not quite what you are looking for but take a look at APTonCD
[17:36] <hiexpo> x yes
[17:37] <lucid_interval> mrkim: you can also try to wire this into dkms (not installed by default - do apt-get install dkms)
[17:37] <PomkaLK> VCoolio: For you, what's better: irsii or weechat?
[17:37] <hiexpo> x_, yes
[17:37] <mrkim> Ok, how do I do this?  I can enter commands but hafta be spoon fed since I'm just a GUI guy :>/
[17:37] <VCoolio> PomkaLK: I switched to weechat a week ago, I like it better, it's a bit easier I think
[17:37] <lucid_interval> mrkim: when you see the login page - is there any indication (text / quality of graphics) that Xorg is _NOT_ using your proprietary driver, but some fallback VESA driver?
[17:38] <pasword001> hi simply ask what is the Hungarian name for Ubuntu rooms should
[17:38] <underdev> IcyJ: Thank you.  That's even better- i can keep my standard apps as well.
[17:38] <rifter> mrkim, you cani nstall propprietary drivers wih the gui now
[17:38] <rifter> mrkim system -> administration -> hardware drivers
[17:38] <lucid_interval> mrkim: can you confirm you are using an nvidia driver?
[17:38] <x_> hiexpo how? i tried using synaptic
[17:39] <mrkim> I would say it is in default mode since all I have on the screen is an X for the cursor
[17:39] <hiexpo> x_, one sec i will get it
[17:39] <mrkim> I'm using an nVidia driver, but can't get to the desktop after logging in
[17:40] <rifter> pasting /var/log/Xorg.0.log to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com would give us that answer among others
[17:40] <mrkim> 'I am in a terminal on the machine now and have looed in
[17:40] <hiexpo> x_, may i pm you ?
[17:41] <mrkim> I'm at ~$
[17:41] <suffah> hi guys, what's the best way to add a windows partition to an existing ubuntu build?
[17:41] <x_> yes hiexpo
[17:41] <lucid_interval> mrkim: thanks for the info... I can walk you through the steps - will take a while. do you want to open a separate private chat window for this?
[17:41] <cbx> anyone know the release date for ubuntu 10.04?
[17:41] <rafuch0> quick question where is alsaconf in ubuntu?
[17:41] <macman_> guys im trying to use ffmpeg or mencoder .. i want to make one of the subtiles hard coded any ideas on how to ?
[17:41] <blakkheim> !lucid | cbx
[17:42] <rifter> mrkim, oh sorry I just reeread and see why you can't sdo this in the gui on your system.. :( ouch it sounds bad
[17:42] <mrkim> sure, not too good with chat, so how do I do that?
[17:42] <Samus_Aran> does anyone know if and how apt knows which version the distro is, for determining appropriate packages to install ?
[17:42] <skjoedt-> Hi guys, what packages do you recommend to setup a GUI client for a Microsoft Exchange 5.5 server in Ubuntu 9.10? Email/Calendar/Contacts should be supported. Thx.
[17:43] <cli4life> how do I get firestarter to monitor ETH0 and ETH1 (wireless)
[17:43] <cbx> Its like Stan Lee names Ubuntu Releases :P
[17:43] <suffah> Samus: it pulls the appropriate info from your /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:43] <umbra_> Samus_Aran, does not apt use the same sources list?
[17:43] <rifter> mrkim, it depends on your irc client ..usually if it's gui you can right click the person's name and choose to open a chat window
[17:44] <rifter> Samus_Aran, it's in your sources.list
[17:44] <Samus_Aran> umbra_, suffah: so then how does it know what to install, if for instance you put two different version names ?
[17:44] <umbra_> suffah, man...the timeing was like identical lol
[17:44] <suffah> haha :)
[17:44] <rifter> Samus_Aran, basically you specified in tehre what release's packages you want
[17:44] <suffah> well do a "sudo apt-get update" and if the distro is invalid you'll get an error
[17:45] <chai> hey i did a fresh install of 9.10 on my desktop and then did the available update. after restarting my pc won't even boot. Grub works sometimes, and when i select the older version to boot from that doesn't even work either. sometimes the floppy drive light comes on and stays on forever with a black screen
[17:45] <Samus_Aran> I am trying to help dehqan who apparently did half an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 and now wants to go back to 9.04.  they said they've done apt-get update, and only have the 9.04 repos listed, but it can't find any packages
[17:45] <cyberbluntz> I see why everyone is so proud of their linux
[17:45] <jaypur> ubuntu is getting ugly!
[17:46] <cyberbluntz> Everyones will be different, and so much work goes into it
[17:46] <jaypur> hated that new interface and the new logo!
[17:46] <cyberbluntz> i got this BA wallpaper, its matrix with a gnome foot highlighted
[17:46] <rifter> chai well if you don't see grub at all, the system might nbot be booting that drive.. I wonder if you're having some kind of drive failure
[17:47] <cyberbluntz> I had that prob before after I tried to update to 9.1 the 1st time
[17:47] <cyberbluntz> I just reinstalled linux and everything went back to normal
[17:47] <Samus_Aran> umbra_, suffah: so any idea why a sources.list that only has 9.04 listed would not be able to apt-get install --reinstall any packages, saying none of them can be found ?
[17:47] <chai> rifter thats what i thought at first, so i pulled out a different HD and did another install on that, same result
[17:48] <cyberbluntz> and btw, why the excessive 0 in 9.10?
[17:48] <chai> cyberbluntz significant figures lol
[17:48] <x_> it s an idication or the month
[17:48] <x_> indication*
[17:48] <x_> yr.month
[17:48] <twomonkies> ,
[17:48] <cyberbluntz> its still excessive regardless
[17:48] <cyberbluntz> 0 is understood imo
[17:49] <getxsick> is it possible to use presented themes with current Ubuntu/GNOME? http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2010/03/ubuntu-dumps-the-brown-introduces-new-theme.ars
[17:49] <skjoedt-> Has any of you succesfully managed to set up a mail client for a Microsoft Exchange 5.5 server? What do you recommend?
[17:49] <cyberbluntz> I wouldnt mind getting my compiz working now that i have all my net utils going ^^
[17:51] <bin1010> anyone using rdiff-backup?
[17:51] <Pupeno> is there a command that will output some info about certs, keys, public keys, etc of those for SSL?
[17:51] <Samus_Aran> skjoedt-: I would check if Evolution supports 5.5, it's the most popular
[17:51] <cyberbluntz> why does my compiz                   /libgconf-2.so.4.1.5Aborted
[17:52] <cyberbluntz> gui wont run
[17:53] <seanbrystone_> what is the fix for bug #386763, i see like 12 people having same issue, but i dont see a fix, really close to just giving up, move on to another OS
[17:54] <MartinCleaver> (asking again) Am running eeebuntu (I think 9.04). I installed gparted and rebooted. Now my machine won't start the window manager. I tried to run the recovery / dpkg option - it wanted me to upgrade: I said no. How can I diagnose what is wrong?
[17:54] <Samus_Aran> seanbrystone_: most likely if someone had a fix, they would have posted it.  any patches posted ?
[17:54] <skjoedt-> Samus_Aran: Thanks for the advice. Evolution itself doesn't support 5.5, but there is a workaround. Have you got it to work?
[17:55] <Samus_Aran> seanbrystone_: what's the link to the issue ?  I don't actually know all the bug reports in my head.  :p
[17:55] <turbotoast> Hi guys. Could anyone give me some advice on how to copy a certain partition over another?
[17:55] <seanbrystone_> Samus_Aran, im not that good with bug reporting, so i donno if there's a patch or not, if there is im not seeing it
[17:55] <Samus_Aran> skjoedt-: sorry, no.  I don't use Evolution or Exchange, myself
[17:55] <seanbrystone_> its a really long link from my other computer Samus_Aran but its bug #386763
[17:56] <skrite> hey all, i am using netbook remix and where i set up keyboard shortcuts, there is not a command or keyboard shortcut to open a terminal, is there  a place i can create a custom shortcut?
[17:57] <bin1010> I have a encrypted home directory and when I do rdiff-backup it is presently trying to copy home/.ecryptfs/username/.Private/ECRYPTFS_FNEK_blah blah.  Is this necessary.  I do want to be able, if necessary to copy this back to the original machine if it completely breaks...but will copying this back to the machine even work?
[17:57] <Stargaze> skrite, try gnome-terminal
[17:57] <disappearedng> someone recommend an alarm clock plz
[17:58] <sudipta> what does wget do?
[17:58] <disappearedng> man wget
[17:58] <Stargaze> sudipta,  download
[17:58] <cyberbluntz> wow, compiz froze my comp when i tried to run it
[17:58] <disappearedng> download w/o interation
[17:58] <jibadeeha> downloads files from the web
[17:58] <Radio-l> it's a way of invoking http requests
[17:59] <Signal360> brb
[17:59] <jibadeeha> i never new it supported FTP though, cool
[17:59] <cyberbluntz> can anyone help me with this error?   libdbus-qt-1-dev: Depends: libqt3-mt-dev but it is not going to be installed E: Build-dependencies for compiz could not be satisfied.
[17:59] <seanbrystone_> Could anyone recommend a good file splitter, preferably with GUI front-end
[17:59] <skrite> Stargaze, i see it, thanks
[17:59] <disappearedng> Radio-l I am pretty sure that is not the way it's intended
[17:59] <hiexpo> sudipta, wget is a downloader
[17:59] <disappearedng> invoking http request can be just a GET or POST request
[17:59] <disappearedng> or somethign else
[17:59] <disappearedng> that is actually NOT a correct description
[17:59] <vaix> seanbrystone_: split ?   no frontend
[18:00] <disappearedng> especially if you look at `man wget`
[18:00] <Radio-l> true
[18:00] <usuario_> QUE HACES
[18:00] <usuario_> TONTA
[18:01] <seanbrystone_> vaix, hmmm ok what would be the syntax for splitting a 6 gig file? (split 2 times, so 3 gigs each so i can put on DVD)  :)
[18:01] <hiexpo> i know but close enough
[18:01] <dehqan> how *apt* determines what version the distro is  ?

[18:07] <cyberbluntz> ok compiz keeps freezing me, am I going to need to make it myself?
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> disappearedng: similar but its for one shot only
[18:07] <disappearedng> I don't think I feel like writing my own alarm since I don't know gtk that well
[18:07] <cyberbluntz> does it even work on ubuntu?
[18:07] <Guest64869> does anyone know where to get the 9.10 drivers for an external tv card??
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> Rethus: once installed they will be added to the bootup
[18:07] <ntsasng> !help
[18:07] <Stargaze> Balsaq, try lshw -html > list.html
[18:08] <Balsaq> is that chipset?
[18:08] <ntsasng> i can't play MPD and dislay MPD on conky
[18:08] <rethus> ActionParsnip: worked before, but now, after last update of kernel, ist doesn't work anymore
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> Cyberbluntz: launch compiz -- replace ,in a terminal and use the output to ask in #compiz
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> !boot | rethus
[18:08] <disappearedng> quick question after adding a file in cron.d do I have to run crontab -e `location of my file` to "install" it into the current cron daemon
[18:09] <Balsaq> ok stargaze thanks, if it doesnt work any other ides?
[18:09] <cyberbluntz> ok ty
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> Cyberbluntz: and yes it does work in ubuntu, just like in any other linux distro
[18:09] <Stargaze> Balsaq, it works, i just tried :)
[18:09] <cyberbluntz> well I had to compile kismet =-/
[18:09] <Balsaq> ok it gives all3 answers stargaze?
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> !info kismet
[18:09] <Stargaze> Balsaq, and more
[18:10] <Stargaze> Balsaq, try 'lshw -html > list.html'
[18:10] <Balsaq> wow even chipset stargaze?
[18:10] <Stargaze> yes
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Ctberbluntz: its in the universe repo
[18:10] <Balsaq> ok thanks stargaze
[18:10] <rethus> ActionParsnip: how can i add with update-rc.d ? maybe lighttpd ?
[18:10] <Stargaze> Balsaq, ls hw = list hardware
[18:10] <solow> Transmission stays idle, why?
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Rethus: not sure. I guess the links will help
[18:10] <Balsaq> stargaze ok so that gives all of it
[18:10] <Balsaq> thanks
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> Solow: are there active torrents?
[18:11] <dividebyzer0> solow: are the ports you have transmission set to use open?
[18:11] <solow> ActionParsnip, Yes they're active. over 3k seeds
[18:11] <umbra_> when I "id ubuntu" i get (along with some other material):  groups=1000(ubuntu).  I'd like to change that to : groups=999(ubuntu) anybody know how to do this?
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> Solow: if your router doesn't support upnp you will need to port forward stuff
[18:11] <tehbaut> how do I find which dev device is my usb drive?
[18:11] <solow> ActionParsnip, I just downloaded winXP. So it worked.
[18:11] <Stargaze> tehbaut, try lsusb
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Tehbaut: sudo parted -l
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Solow: broadcasting piracy activities isn't smart
[18:12] <solow> ActionParsnip, One just started.
[18:12] <dividebyzer0> solow: downloads and uploads work differently through ports with Torrents
[18:13] <umbra_> want to change groups=1000(ubuntu) to groups=999(ubuntu) anybody know how from cli?
[18:13] <cyberbluntz> well heres the bin if anyone else cares to take a jab, as compiz seems slow http://pastebin.com/jqAeGCLu
[18:13] <Kamenow> Good Evening
[18:13] <solow> ActionParsnip, /care. It's not for usage, it's for testing. So to me, it's pretty much like downloading a demo for 30 days, nobody cared.
[18:13] <Kamenow> Is there anyone wh owants to help me ?
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Solow: still doesn't make it legak
[18:13] <Nyosh> sure, its adamn thing wat d we do !?
[18:13] <cyberbluntz> i do!
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> Umbra: chgrp maybe
[18:14] <solow> ActionParsnip, Yes it does. It's a demo. Demo's are legal. Not everything downloaded with torrents is illegal.
[18:14] <cyberbluntz> chown
[18:14] <LinuxGuy2009> I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my netbook, and then the ubuntu-netbook-remix packages on top of it. I switched the view to netbook and the top panel doesnt show most of the time. Any reason for that?
[18:14] <solow> ActionParsnip, as soon as i use it, or crack it, it's illegal. as long as i use the 30 day trial, it's not.
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> Solow: xp is xp, there is no demo of xp
[18:14] <cyberbluntz> right click properties, uncheck autohide?
[18:14] <xangua> LinuxGuy2009: have you tried with karmic koala┬┐
[18:14] <solow> ActionParsnip, yes there is. a 30 days trial :)
[18:15] <LinuxGuy2009> xangua: no i hate karmic with a passion
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Solow: anyhoo. Check your ports on your router are matched to the ports configured in transmission
[18:15] <dividebyzer0> solow: this is actually incorrect. there simply is an activation countdown a quick google search proves this http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=windows+xp+demo+%2Btorrent
[18:15] <Nyosh> THEN TRY DEBIAN
[18:16] <Kamenow> why everytime when I try to compile something
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> !debian | nyosh
[18:16] <Kamenow> there desplays the follow

[18:16] <solow> dividebyzer0, Does it really matter? Anyway, downloading is legal as far as I know. Uploading is illegal.
[18:16] <Kamenow> is there anyone who can help me
[18:16] <BulleTh0> I have a subnet, <IP_ADDRESS>/29, routed behind <IP_ADDRESS>. On the server, I have <IP_ADDRESS> on eth0 and, on eth0:0 .252. How do I get internet from the server? I tried on a windows machine connected trough a switch with the server to put IP: <IP_ADDRESS> with netmask <IP_ADDRESS>, gatway <IP_ADDRESS>(server, eth0:1) Do I need an extra netcard to put .232 or it's just a software issue?
[18:16] <chai> how you you use terminal? i mean, like personal settings and stuff, i know how to use a terminal
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Kamenow: there isn't a configure file in the pwd. Make sure you are in the right folder
[18:17] <Stargaze> BulleTh0 => type /join #ubuntu-server
[18:17] <MacVirus> ok
[18:17] <skydrome> anyone know why the system beep doesnt work when compiz is used?
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Kamenow: also check the build instructions. Not all apps use configure
[18:17] <Nyosh> sure terminal are reallycool!!

[18:20] <Alan_> where should I extract it?
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> Kamenow: just run it like any other app

[18:20] <chai> sry my cat was retarded
[18:20] <Kamenow> god damn
[18:20] <Kamenow> i told you i`m a beginner
[18:21] <Kamenow> just tell me how
[18:21] <Kamenow> ;]
[18:21] <Sh3r1ff> Alan_: installing something from source is not in sync with the repo's
[18:21] <Nyosh> Am new to ubuntu please help me get tutorials.
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> !enter | kamenow
[18:21] <Maranatha> I am new and how do I use commandLines
[18:21] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: Vuze, latest
[18:21] <chai> Nyosh what do you want to learn?
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> Alan_: is there not a vuze ppa? This will allow you to install via apt-get etc
[18:21] <pasword001> #hu-ubuntu
[18:21] <Pici> Kamenow: What are you trying to compile?
[18:22] <Kamenow> A kidn of screenlets
[18:22] <Kamenow> A kind  of screenlets
[18:22] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: thanks I will try and find a ppa
[18:22] <pasword001> hungary help?
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> !find vuze
[18:22] <hellyeah> hey
[18:22] <Pici> Kamenow: Well, the screenlets package is in the repository, have you tried installing that instead of compiling?
[18:22] <odaboy> ppa?
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> !info vuze
[18:22] <hellyeah> is there someone who use picasa
[18:22] <Pici> !hu | pasword001
[18:23] <Nyosh> i want to learn how to use terminal
[18:23] <Stargaze> Maranatha, check http://www.linuxnewbieguide.org/content/chapter-12-i-dont-know-any-commands
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> !ppa > odaboy
[18:23] <Kamenow> Yes,I`ve tried
[18:23] <Red_HamsterX> What do you want to know about it, Nyosh?
[18:23] <Maranatha> thank you very much Stargaze
[18:23] <Pici> Kamenow: Well, have you read the readme or the the install file that comes with the software that you're trying to compile?
[18:24] <Alan_> another question - when in full screen mode, is there any way to terminate the current program?
[18:24] <Nyosh> The basic commands and how well i can learn them
[18:24] <odaboy> µ£ēõĖŁÕøĮõ║║õ╣ł
[18:24] <Alan_> (like alt+f4 in windows)
[18:24] <Pici> !zh | odaboy
[18:24] <Kamenow> May be i`m wrong
[18:24] <Kamenow> Wait a second i`ll try again
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Alan_: try alt+f4
[18:24] <Red_HamsterX> Nyosh, what you want to learn about could probably be best exploded by finding a primer or introductory tutorial on using Linux with Bash.
[18:24] <Red_HamsterX> explored*
[18:25] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: tried, doesn't work in fullscreen
[18:25] <Hedonista> is there a way for pidgin to use the old style tray icon instead of indicator-applet in karmic?
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> Alan_: there is a deb here. Use at your own risk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1343331
[18:25] <Stargaze> Hedonista, try with alltray
[18:26] <Nyosh> Thanks, Red_hamsterX
[18:26] <Hedonista> ok thank-you Stargaze
[18:26] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: thank you!
[18:26] <AegNuddel> I have an Epson Artisan 700.  We have gotten the printing set up but I need to know what I need to do to set up the scanning.  I found a site with a possible driver but when I tried to install it it said there was an unsatisfiable dependency
[18:26] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: what's risky though?
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> Hedonista: you can tell pidgin not to use a tray icon and the buddy list window will sit alongside your other apps if that's what you mean
[18:26] <Stargaze> AegNuddel, you have CUPS installed?
[18:26] <Hedonista> Stargaze, do you think if i installer trayer or stalonetray that may work al;so?
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Alan_: its just because its not on the official repos. I'm sure it'll be fine
[18:27] <Stargaze> cannot tell Hedonista
[18:27] <Nyosh> Can you get the tuts for me , Red_HamsterX. A link or so!!
[18:27] <skydrome> anyone know why the system beep doesnt work when compiz is used?
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Alan_: I always cover my. Back
[18:27] <Hedonista> ok thanks again Stargaze
[18:27] <AegNuddel> better check but I think so
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Skydome: anyone replying in #compiz ?
[18:28] <Alan_> ActionParsnip: lol.. okay thanks :)
[18:28] <skydrome> negative
[18:28] <Alan_> cya
[18:28] <psilo2> Where (on the filesystem) can I find a list of installed packages?  Something similar to `dpkg --get-selections` would be great.
[18:28] <AegNuddel> says that my printer manager is designed for cups so I must have it
[18:29] <Kamenow> Pici What i want to ssay is one big Thanks :)
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> Psilo2: you can fint the postinst files in /var someplace (I believe, those wil related to installed stuff)
[18:29] <erUSUL> psilo2: dpkg
[18:29] <vorian> how in the world do I tell if I have a dove board or mx51 board on my netbook?
[18:29] <plecebo> i run a ibook g4 running ubuntu ppc 9.10 and gnome but my battery monitor doesnt work how do i enable one?
[18:30] <erUSUL> psilo2: dpkg --get-selections >  ~/file_with_a_list_of_installed_packages.txt <<<<< there in your home folder
[18:30] <vorian> nevermind
[18:30] <DarkX> hello, i was wondering if someone could help me set up a VNC server on ubuntu with a mirror driver :) (i read that using a mirror driver gives better performance)
[18:30] <faron> hllo evrybody...hope all ar well today
[18:31] <newclimb> im with a problem in a pastebinit it doesnt create the link anyone can help me?
[18:31] <matic> faron, am hungry!
[18:31] <AegNuddel> I have an Epson Artisan 700.  We have gotten the printing set up but I need to know what I need to do to set up the scanning.  I found a site with a possible driver but when I tried to install it it said there was an unsatisfiable dependency
[18:32] <VCoolio> newclimb: there is a bugreport and a patch, let me try and find it
[18:32] <newclimb> VCoolio: thanks
[18:32] <faron> wish i culd hlp ya matic
[18:32] <hellyeah> muhahahha lo
[18:33] <matic> faron, I take lots of ice cream, when is the ice cream van passing by :)
[18:33] <psilo2> erUSUL: the system is not bootable, cannot run dpkg.
[18:34] <Stargaze_> admin, please kick Stargaze
[18:34] <VCoolio> newclimb: hm, can't find it that quick but here's the patch http://pastebin.com/jErMpKkp
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[18:35] <dehqan> how apt-get determines what version the distro is  ?
[18:35] <VCoolio> newclimb: save somewhere as pastebinit.diff then run: sudo patch -p0 < pastebinit.diff
[18:35] <vorian> dehqan: your sources.list file
[18:35] <oLife> I'm looking for a blacklist app, similar to the one Transmission uses. Can anyone recommend an app?
[18:35] <vorian> found in /etc
[18:35] <faron> i need to no if there is maybe a list of sum type somewhere that can tell me what I can safely uninstall   from my xubuntu sys as I would like top make this sys as lean as can possibly be ?????????????
[18:35] <psilo2> ActionParsnip: ah I think I see what you mean. /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst ?
[18:35] <Stargaze_> dehqan, not with apt, try lsb_release -a
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> dehqan: it uses the source file. That's why they say your release name on each line
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Psilo2: yeah. Kinda messy way to go about it though. Dpkg etc can give better output on what's installed
[18:36] <newclimb> VCoolio: i dont know how to do that?
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Faron: lean in ram or in hdd use?
[18:37] <faron> ram & cpu
[18:37] <matic> faron, ActionParsnip is very right
[18:37] <psilo2> ActionParsnip: right but the machine is not bootable.  The fs is hosed; I am reinstalling the machine and a current package list would be a good start.
[18:37] <dehqan> lsb_release -a says it is jaunty nut apt-get can not download packages from jaunty reps  st ActionParsnip
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Faron: one good way is to look at the stuff in the menus and remove what you don't use. Which can reduce running apps.
[18:37] <VCoolio> newclimb: copypaste the text from the link in an editor, save the file as pastebinit.diff in your home folder; then open a terminal and run the command I gave
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Psilo2: use a live cd and chroot
[18:38] <infid> what does it mean when someone says 'it took ~2 years'?
[18:38] <Stargaze_> dehqan, i think jaunty is no longer supported
[18:38] <AegNuddel> hmm
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> Faron: you can remove stuff like xsane which will knock out a service nicely if you never use a scanner. The program bum will help to a fashion too
[18:39] <faron> I was planning on going through synapytic that way
[18:39] <AegNuddel> my audio is conflicting with what I need for my scanner??
[18:39] <nevin> infid: in this case, ~ = about
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Faron: you can also remove openoffice and install abiword if all you use is writer
[18:39] <VCoolio> infid: ~=approximately, you mean?
[18:39] <VCoolio> newclimb: all clear?
[18:39] <faron> but I dont wnt to uninstall something & then not have my machine boot ya kno ?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Faron: you can also remove gimp if you never use it
[18:39] <InvincibleNinja> hi all, i have trouble setting the correct resolution on my laptop, i am using ubuntu 9.10, any help?
[18:39] <infid> VCoolio:  is that what ~ means?
[18:39] <psilo2> ActionParsnip:  The root folder does not contain /usr /bin /sbin /etc /lib and so on.  It's not usable to run a machine.  Anyway, thanks.  I only had that one quesiton.
[18:39] <tehbaut> how can I get ubuntu to support hfs+ ?
[18:39] <VCoolio> infid: that's what I would make of it, yeah
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Faron: tbh a stock install of ubuntu is full of fluff and can be skimmed down easily
[18:40] <tehbaut> er, gparted
[18:40] <infid> VCoolio: is that an english, math or programming thing?
[18:40] <plecebo> i run a ibook g4 running ubuntu ppc 9.10 and gnome but my battery monitor doesnt work how do i enable one?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Psilo2: glad to help
[18:40] <faron> action.... see I tum xubuntu.............
[18:40] <VCoolio> infid: it's rather offtopic, but it's a math thing to have a curled = as 'approximately' but on a keyboard it's hard to get that one so one uses the tilda
[18:40] <infid> ActionParsnip: how do you recommend skimming it down? sudo apt-get --remove ?
[18:41] <Stargaze_> plecebo, try xbattbar
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Faron: if you use static ip or are running a desktop you can define the lan in /etc/network/interfaces and remove network manager
[18:41] <plecebo> ok
[18:41] <InvincibleNinja> hi all, i have trouble setting the correct resolution on my laptop, i am using ubuntu 9.10, any help? :)
[18:41] <infid> VCoolio: i see. thanks
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Infid: depends on your use
[18:41] <Paine> how do you, in terminal, open a program and then still have prompt
[18:42] <newclimb> VCoolio: the command that you gave me doesnt work
[18:42] <faron> hmmmmm wish I really understood what you just said oops wow though I figured net mgr would be omething I would really need
[18:42] <infid> Paine: program &
[18:42] <plecebo> stargaze do i use software center or do i use synpatic
[18:42] <Paine> infid, thanks
[18:42] <VCoolio> newclimb: what does it say?
[18:42] <Stargaze_> Paine, by typing @ behond the command
[18:42] <dehqan> lsb_release -a says it is jaunty nut apt-get can not download packages from jaunty reps  st ActionParsnip
[18:42] <DarkX> euhm...i just installed the nvidia video driver and now my resolution is to high for my monitor ._.
[18:42] <Paine> Stargaze_,
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Faron: there are also tonnes of drivers which can also be removed: you can see them with: dpkg -l | grep xserver ,and remove any you don't use. Evolution can also be removed to free up ram as it runs a few services
[18:42] <Stargaze_> plecebo, synaptic
[18:42] <Paine> Stargaze_, thanks :D
[18:42] <newclimb> VCoolio: newmar@newmar-laptop:~$ sudo patch -p0 < pastebinit.diff
[18:42] <newclimb> sudo: patch: command not found
[18:42] <plecebo> ok
[18:42] <DarkX> any quick fix? :p
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Dehqan: run: sudo apt-get update
[18:43] <VCoolio> newclimb: ah, well, does it suggest any packages to install?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Darkx: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Darkx: then reboot
[18:43] <DarkX> when? i can't even get to a login D:
[18:43] <faron> see right now my cpu is being maxed & all I have running is this chat
[18:43] <dehqan> ActionParsnip: done it before
[18:43] <newclimb> VCoolio: nothing
[18:43] <rafuch0> where is alsaconf !!!
[18:43] <faron> oops up & down
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Darkx: root recovery console
[18:43] <DarkX> ok will try :3
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Dehan: does it hit the repos?
[18:43] <DarkX> (this is another laptop btw :p)
[18:43] <dehqan> ActionParsnip: yes some
[18:44] <umbra_> ya'll have a good evening...thanks for all the help
[18:44] <captainc> can someone help me install without cd where I have a separate fat32 partition with the cd iso on it?
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> Darkx: you will stll have a recovery root console. It is still the same OS as a desktop system
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> Dehqan: then change server in software sources
[18:44] <faron> eveolution ?? see now that would be something I would wonder whether I needed or not.......
[18:44] <DarkX> hmm looks like its working after a reboot O_o strange
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Faron: if you use it for email, keep it. If not get rid
[18:45] <VCoolio> newclimb: ah, it's just patch; run: sudo apt-get install patch
[18:45] <faron> See,I am not a geek {I just like people to think I am.Heh,heh}
[18:45] <VCoolio> newclimb: then try again (use arrow up to select the same command for convenience)
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Faron: if you don't use vnc you can remove vino and vinagre too
[18:45] <plecebo> ok i installed it so should i restart
[18:45] <e45qhtrafgd> hahah
[18:45] <alesan> hi how do I install acrobat reader from adobe? For example I know of this:
[18:45] <e45qhtrafgd> jhrtdnbfcvz
[18:45] <alesan> http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/a/acroread/
[18:46] <alesan> so is there a way to add that in the list of repositories
[18:46] <alesan> so that I keep automatically uptodate?
[18:46] <faron> vnc ?? that a media player ?
[18:46] <tehbaut> apt-get install hfsprogs returns no results... is there another way to get hfsprogs via apt-get?
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Faron: if you run: dpkg -l | less ,you can see what's installed and remove what is surplus
[18:46] <DarkX> VNC is for remote desktop connection
[18:46] <spinner> how do i change terminal color scheme
[18:46] <newclimb> VCoolio: patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Faron: also set vm.swappiness lower if you have 1gb ram or more
[18:46] <DarkX> i installed tightvnc server but i can't seem to find any way to configure it :p
[18:46] <tehbaut> is there an apt-get search function?
[18:46] <Tihomir> hello ninjas
[18:46] <Tihomir> :)
[18:46] <gabriel> sup my ninja
[18:47] <YOY> Hey, is this normal? nautilus freezes for a while whenever i even click an incomplete file that's downloading in utorrent. This is driving me  crazy.
[18:47] <VCoolio> newclimb: I found the site, get the patch from there, maybe you also copied the line numbering https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pastebinit/+bug/526849
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> Tehbaut: apt-cache search will search available apps. dpkg -l | grep something will search your installed apps
[18:47] <faron> ahhhhhhhhset swappiness lower ?? Wow,I was thinking about setting it higher but I don't even kno whow
[18:47] <captainc> YOY, utorrent on ubuntu?
[18:47] <faron> know how
[18:47] <gabriel> anybody know how to get the /usr/share/man/man0p manpages in ubuntu?
[18:48] <YOY> yes captainc
[18:48] <e45qhtrafgd> Tiders muha
[18:48] <VCoolio> newclimb: it's the attachment in the second post there
[18:48] <captainc> YOY, Is that native or through wine?
[18:48] <YOY> wine of course
[18:48] <tehbaut> thanks ActionParsnip
[18:48] <captainc> YOY, not for nothing, but transmission is pretty kick-ass.
[18:48] <e45qhtrafgd> iykfcm,hvlocfol
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Faron: higher will make it use swap more (more hdd access = sloooow) if your system can run in ram a low vm.swappiness will restrict the system to try and make it use ram more (faster)
[18:49] <spinner> some one know how to change terminal color scheme
[18:49] <YOY> transmission stinks
[18:49] <nevin> spinner: edit -> profiles
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Faron: could also install dnsmasq to have a local dns service to speed up web access
[18:49] <tehbaut> is archive.ubuntu.com down?
[18:49] <jpds> tehbaut: highly unlikely
[18:49] <captainc> YOY: Deluge is good too. Otherwise, I'd monitor the WINE process for CPU usage to see if that's the bottle neck.
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Captainc: enable to web interface too. Remote control torrents
[18:50] <AegNuddel> I have an Epson Artisan 700.  We have gotten the printing set up but I need to know what I need to do to set up the scanning.  I found a site with a possible driver but when I tried to install it it said there was an unsatisfiable dependency.  I tried to download it but it said PulseAudio had a conflicting version and installing it would break the package.  (Having a broken package does not sound fun!)
[18:50] <nevin> spinner: then select the default profile ( or create a new one ) and change away..
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> Yoy: I use it. My g1 phone loves it long time
[18:50] <jpds> tehbaut: And no, it's just you.
[18:50] <captainc> YOY: Just curious, why do you not like Transmission?
[18:50] <YOY> captainc it's not about wine, it's about nautilus. even if i shut down utorrent it freezes
[18:50] <tehbaut> jpds: I'm getting "failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/h/hfsplus/libhfsp0_1.0.412build1_amd64.deb
[18:50] <YOY> because it's not ghostleech friendlu
[18:50] <YOY> friendly
[18:50] <YOY> *
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Yoy: utorrent has a few bugs and will ramp up cpu usage til it maxes your chips
[18:51] <spinner> so i have to do it grafical it wont work if i make an Xresources file with color codes?
[18:51] <Stargaze_> faron, in Terminal, type sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf and then add vm.swappiness = 10
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Yoy: there are tonnes of torrent apps native to linux. I suggest you try them
[18:51] <YOY> ActionParsnip, utorrent runs perfect
[18:51] <YOY> it's just a bug
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> Stargaze_: gksudo for gedit
[18:52] <captainc> YOY: my initial feel is that it is the way wine has to stream information to the disk and that nautilus is trying to read info about the file. If it is not stored properly, Nautilus may choke on it.
[18:52] <phunk> hey homies, does anyone know if it's possible to combine .ima floppy images into a .iso file using ubuntu? i was thinking the dd command but i'm not exactly sure how to approach it...
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> Yoy: yeah 100% cpu usage is pretty appauling for something billed to be "light"
