[14:03] <Pici> Exploiter: plymouth is responsible for more than just the boot screen.  It is responsible for getting stuff mounted and the system started.

[14:09] <Pici> The_Thing: Its in the rss-glx package.
[14:09] <rapha> I changed my desktop lang from German to English, but xdg-user-dirs-update doesn't change my folders names to English, too. How to make it work?
[14:09] <sangeeth> Please Help !!! I am in need of a VPN that could be established in my computer against a Proxy server of my college, such that i could access the blocked sites, like facebook,......
[14:09] <tms2> got a question about my acer, stuckmojo was helping me earlier and he's gone
[14:10] <littlebearz> sangeeth: there's so many proxy out there
[14:10] <PDani> hi
[14:10] <nikola> rapha, apply system wide and restart, that helped for me

[14:10] <kryptyk> Morning all. I am having a strange issue that I have never encountered before.

Everything just closes and I am logged off. Any ideas?
[14:11] <sangeeth> Sorry guys.... I don't need a proxy site... I need a VPN software
[14:11] <jsec> |ns|nR8: no. for some reason a re-burn of the cd tends to fix that issue for me...
[14:11] <rapha> nikola: just found out - you need to edit ~/.config/user-dirs.*
[14:12] <PDani> I installed a python module from deb, which puts the python source into /usr/share/pyshared dir. But when i try to import this module from python2.5, it can't find the module. why isn't the default behaviour of python2.5 to look after modules in pyshared, and how can i reach this behaviour in debian-way?
[14:12] <PDani> i mean, ubuntu-way ;)
[14:12] <|ns|nR8> thanks jsec

[14:14] <thechef> I accidently interrupted the upgrade process from 10.04 to 10.10. I was able to resume it using the console command. The point at which I was interrupting the upgrade process was where it was about to remove certain applications no longer required in 10.10 (among them is f-spot) - now how do I remove these packages manually if I don't know anymore which these are? I think that's all the applications that come out of the box with 10.04, but
[14:14] <thechef> not 10.10?
[14:14] <rapha> nikola: thanks still :-)
[14:15] <acer__> Sorry gyts, got disconnected, if someone has message me I may have lost the contents.
[14:15] <thechef> Or how can I resume the original upgrade process?
[14:15] <BluesKaj> thechef, run sudo aptitude autoremove

[14:15] <acer__> Is there a way to reset grub or something?
[14:15] <Pici> BluesKaj: aptitude isn't installed by default, probably best to use apt-get for examples :)
[14:15] <sebsebseb> BluesKaj: you can sudo apt-get install aptitude
[14:16] <BluesKaj> Pici, then tell him , not me :)

[14:20] <tensorpudding> aeon-ltd: there's a long time for them to figure that out yet
[14:20] <BluesKaj> thechef, just run sudo do-release-upgrade , then run sudo apt-get update afterwards
[14:20] <Quaxir> Heydo, I'm encountering a grub-problem after updating Kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10. When booting I get error: "the symbol 'grub-xputs' not found". I've tried to fix it with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1581099 but when chrooting to my normal system it tells mount point(s) doesn't exist. Any advice I should try?
[14:21] <Provance> I'm trying to set up an Actiontec Electronics, Inc. [hex] UAT1 Wireless Ethernet Adapter, if it's not listed here http://wiki.debian.org/linux-wlan-ng#supported-prism2-usb does that mean there is nothing I can do?
[14:22] <acer__> nikola, do you think I could do that from inside windows?
[14:22] <acer__> Because I cannot boot Linux anymore.
[14:22] <nikola> acer__, you need to boot from live cd,burn the alternative cd, instert in cdrom and reboot into it
[14:23] <nikola> onethatwecantsayitsname doesnt have support for ext2 3 4
[14:23] <nikola> acer__, you can also boot from usb, if you dont want to waste cd
[14:23] <acer__> nikola, I was thinking to try it from inside windows using Oracle VirtualBox...
[14:24] <nikola> afaik no
[14:24] <thechef> BluesKaj, that doesn't remove f-spot, so it seems that it doesn't exactly do the same as what actual upgrade proposed. How can I instead explicitely remove all packages for which what I said above applies exactly: Comes out-of-the-box with 10.04, does not come out-of-the-box with 10.10
[14:24] <nikola> they see only hardware windows gives them, acer__

[14:26] <acer__> nikola, ok
[14:27] <rumbert> devyll: I think that is possible with a soldering iron.  I think the connectors are compatible.  They are of TRS type. check that they have same # of connection points.

[14:37] <joe85> when I start an application from a terminal it locks the terminal, is there a way to start an application independant from the terminal window I am using?
[14:37] <enkidu> StaRetji: either you have to use tunefs, either change /etc/fstab options (last two numbers)
[14:37] <uLinux> ei ctrl + alt + d doesnt work too?

[14:38] <debra> I just upgraded to Mavrick and had previous problems with Totem but not VLC.  Now VLC sometimes works, but usually skips.  Totem won't work at all.  When I try to run a benchmark on the drive, I get one of two errors: it's too slow to benchmark, or there is an input/output error
[14:38] <Dbl_Tap> joe85: man gnome-terminal or xterm. both have ways of not waiting for the command to finish.
[14:39] <StaRetji> enkidu: I'm using usb stick btw and here is my /etc/fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/513120/ I've messed with it before. Could you please have a look? Thx.
[14:39] <uLinux> AbhiJit: doesnt work :( just like alt + print
[14:39] <enkidu> StaRetji: usb you say?
[14:39] <StaRetji> enkidu: Yes, Its for xbmc (htpc)
[14:39] <AbhiJit> uLinux, in lucid is i press the key comination for lock scfreen ctrl alt l in 'normal' speed then it dont work. but if i decrease the speed very slightly then it works
[14:40] <enkidu> try (unsafe for FS) change last "1" to "0"
[14:40] <BluesKaj> Provance, I've been searching for some documentation on your wifi adapter but there isn't a lot available
[14:40] <pavan_>  ZGHirc  I installed virtualbox from soft center,
[14:40] <pavan_> so have I installed everything or still need to install some extra packages?
[14:40] <uLinux> AbhiJit: ctrl alt l works fine here
[14:40] <AbhiJit> ok
[14:40] <BluesKaj> splittsville
[14:40] <AbhiJit> uLinux, i was just givin you my experience example
[14:40] <untitled> anyone set up gitosis on ubuntu?
[14:40] <uLinux> AbhiJit: okok
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> joe85: did it work?
[14:41] <StaRetji> enkidu: You don't mind if I ask what it does? errors=remount-ro 0       1 to errors=remount-ro 0       0
[14:41] <enkidu> StaRetji: also, usb flash drives are slow in general, so you would prefer to use non-jurnaling filesystem (ext2)
[14:41] <uLinux> AbhiJit: i need to start using launchpad
[14:41] <AbhiJit> uLinux, yah
[14:41] <enkidu> StaRetji: it disables forced filesystem check on every mount
[14:41] <Gangrel> !kde
[14:42] <elb0w> So why in ubuntu 10.10 does my private key not work if it is named identity?
[14:42] <StaRetji> enkidu: I've just installed maverick :/ without swap and made /var/log to be written in memory. At least I think I did that
[14:42] <Gangrel> is it possible after installing kde to restore gnome?
[14:43] <enkidu> StaRetji: good. anyways, you wuld prefer not to use: journalling, atime, diratime etc
[14:43] <enkidu> Gangrel: why not?
[14:43] <rolando> A alguien le a pasado que al iniciar algun sonido (ej: musica o notificaciones) se escucha como si tuviera estatica... y al rato se escucha normal.. ya que mi maquina tiene este sintoma y no se si este relacionado con el pulseaudio.
[14:43] <dli> elb0w, to debug, try "ssh -v -p" "cd /usr/sbin;/usr/sbin/sshd -d -p"
[14:43] <Pici> !es | rolando
[14:44] <Gangrel> enkidu and how to i restore them?
[14:44] <StaRetji> enkidu: if forced filesystem check in good for the usb stick, I will leave it then. How about "EXT4-fs (sda1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)" Is ordered mode good for usb system? Also, I guess I can't change ext4 to ext2 on a working system?
[14:44] <geez> Hi, my ubuntu 9 login just returns me to the login screen. whereas if i login in as root or another user all is OK. any diagnostices to remedy this?
[14:44] <enkidu> Gangrel: just install ubuntu-desktop
[14:45] <Gangrel> enkidu won't this be a problem about dual GUI?
[14:45] <enkidu> StaRetji: unfortunately, you cannot mount ext4 as ext2. Forced filesystem check makes you waiting for bootup, while it will not find errors
[14:46] <enkidu> Gangrel: no, it will be not. I have kde, gnome, lxde and icewm on my desktop
[14:46] <ZGHirc> pavan_:I have not use the virtualbox,but they are the same.All need to install a tool .You can google it.
[14:46] <Pici> Gangrel: You can choose what desktop you want on the login screen.
[14:46] <BluesKaj> Gangrel, you choose your desktop environment at login
[14:46] <Gangrel> ahh i see
[14:47] <AbhiJit> does ubuntu automatically reads and executes the autorun files in my pen drive? (its full of viruses)
[14:47] <enkidu> AbhiJit: no
[14:47] <enkidu> it is windows-only feature
[14:47] <StaRetji> enkidu: So basically it should be safe without it. If it doesn't find errors I don't see the point using it. I've just changed 1 to 0 and it's the same delay. Nothing has changed.
[14:47] <enkidu> only .desktop files are executed automatically
[14:47] <BluesKaj> AbhiJit, only if you plug it in while running windows
[14:47] <rusty149> viruses is a major windows feature
[14:48] <AbhiJit> enkidu, when i asked the same question to wine people they told me it depends on distro. so i asked here. BluesKaj
[14:48] <enkidu> StaRetji: dunno, then, it must wait for something else, but not for driver you mentioned before
[14:48] <Quantum_Ion> yeah I know viruses love windows to DEATH
[14:48] <Davedan> how can I build latest numpy on ubuntu?
[14:48] <Quantum_Ion> NO VIRUS on LINUX hahah
[14:48] <dli> AbhiJit, I think you can infect ubuntu by plugging in a usb, you are entitled to win a big chunk of $$$
[14:49] <StaRetji> enkidu: Ok, thx for effort, it's really appreciated.
[14:49] <enkidu> Quantum_Ion: there are viruses for linux, but most of them cannot find dependencies ;)
[14:49] <Quantum_Ion> enkidu, right and that whole permission thing too
[14:49] <BluesKaj> AbhiJit, you must be careful tho, if you share folders on a network which has windows machines connected
[14:49] <jayeola> is there a way to create a live usb key and have permanent data stored there?

[14:50] <jayeola> example:- store files, keep packages installed on it etc
[14:50] <rusty149> jayeola: use ubuntu startup disk creator and specify a persistant size

[15:09] <lenovo> Wavesonics,  sorry i can't help me
[15:09] <nikola> happydude, System - Preferences - Screensawer
[15:09] <erUSUL> happydude: System>Preferences>Screensaver? or is that too obvious
[15:09] <undecim> happydude: System -> Preferences -> Screensaver?
[15:10] <Exploiter> my system went crzy, i m trying to isntall usplash, it says to remove: nearly all of my installed softwares..
[15:10] <i2v8an> happydude: you can disable it completely by using the start up program manager - I'm not sure what it's called these days.
[15:10] <Exploiter> anypro here, i can give teamviewer access..!!
[15:10] <nikola> actually, erUSUL it is not so obvious because people coming from windows are expecting screensawer to be at same place as Desktop settings
[15:11] <BluesKaj> galusr,  what does lsusb show ?
[15:11] <erUSUL> just expecting people to take a look at System menus ....
[15:11] <undecim> hmm... How do I make Ubuntu lock screen when I close my laptop?
[15:12] <happydude> I believe I have turned off everything, but it still blanks the screen after about 10 minutes!
[15:12] <nikola> im not saying that you are wrong, erUSUL :) just that was my first reaction when i wanted to turn it off, but i am a bit faster newb when looking for stuff in menu
[15:12] <galusr> BluesKaj: http://pastebin.com/VeRv0Ydm
[15:12] <undecim> happydude: That's probably the power management
[15:12] <undecim> happydude: Are you on a laptop running on battery?
[15:13] <nertil> how to turn off the screensaver? because everytime it ask me for my password!!!
[15:13] <happydude> undecim, I have turned off powermanager after configuring it not to blank the screen ever.
[15:13] <happydude> I is a desktop
[15:13] <dave65> nertil: just turn that option off
[15:13] <lenovo> nertil, you can set in powermanger
[15:13] <undecim> nertil: System -> Preferences -> Screensaver. You can keep the screensaver, but tell it to not lock the screen.
[15:13] <nikola> nertil, , System - Preferences - Screensawer
[15:13] <nertil> power manager?
[15:13] <nertil> ok
[15:13] <i2v8an> run gnome-screensaver-preferences in a terminal or run dialog to go directly to the menu
[15:14] <undecim> happydude: Turned off powermanager?

[15:14] <tmba> hello, I'm running ubuntu 10.04 as a print server (and fileserver), but now all of a sudden I get "usr/lib/cups/filter/pstopdf failed" message when trying to print pdf files. I tried looking in the /var/log/cups/error_log but could not make much out of the message there. Anyone familiar with this problem?
[15:14] <multipass> how do i make ubuntu not ask for password when come out of sleep
[15:14] <happydude> undecim, I turned off powermanager in startup applications
[15:14] <dave65> anyone from Wales?
[15:14] <AbhiJit> multipass, uncheck ask password in screensaver setting
[15:14] <undecim> happydude: The power management system will still be running. That's just the frontend to it
[15:15] <Pici> GMX750: #ubuntu-server may be more appropriate for your question.
[15:15] <happydude> undecim, ok.
[15:15] <multipass> im in there and done see the option AbhiJit
[15:15] <undecim> happydude: Go to system -> Preferences -> Power management, and change "Put display to sleep when inactive for:" to "Never"
[15:16] <afallenhope> Is there a way of adding a cdrom to the apt-get repo in terminal
[15:16] <BluesKaj> galusr, so your outboard drive is the Western Digital usb ? , the dev/sdc seems to be it
[15:16] <AbhiJit> multipass, there is - lock screen when screensaver is active
[15:16] <undecim> multipass: It's the lock screen option
[15:16] <happydude> undecim, I already done that... verifying ... yes it is set to never.
[15:16] <multipass> thats disabled
[15:16] <multipass> and its different than what im asking
[15:16] <AbhiJit> multipass, no its the one you want
[15:16] <Mrokii> What would be the best place to look (which log) to find out why the system crashed?
[15:16] <happydude> and screensaver is set to not activate when idle.
[15:16] <multipass> im talking about when the computer comes back from being asleep(suspended) not screensaver
[15:17] <nertil> humm why i get notification area with ! and a triangle and says the update information is outdated this may caused by network problems or by a repository that is no longer avaiable
[15:17] <galusr> BluesKaj: hmmm ok. For some reason when I set this up I thought is was /dev/sdb2 & sdb3 and setup /etc/fstab as such. These two devices mount fine on boot. What on earth is it mounting I wonder?
[15:17] <undecim> happydude: weird. When your screen blanks, is it just a black screen, or does your monitor go to sleep?
[15:17] <undecim> happydude: I.e., does the backlight turn off?
[15:18] <happydude> undecim, I think the monitor goes to sleep, but I am not sure. I have two different monitors. It happens to both.
[15:18] <VP1> Hi, I want to manually download all dependencies of Wine 1.2 for my Lucid for further installing onto some other Lucid desktops which r not having Internet connection. Pl tell how to.

[15:20] <SaRy> nertil, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1545424.html

[15:25] <outlaw84> I am on a server that i running ubuntu but seams to be missing lots of coreutils :/
[15:25] <dogmatic69> hi everyone, any one subscribe to / buy linux format and is it worth while
[15:25] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: and your wallpaper is definately larger than that?, also are you running compiz?
[15:26] <dakota_> aeon-ltd compiz what is that..
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> !compiz | dakota_
[15:27] <alan__> Hey.
[15:27] <undecim> dakota_: Compiz is what does the "Desktop effects"
[15:27] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: its a compositing manager, which handles desktop effects and usually docks require this
[15:27] <alan__> For some reason my linux ubuntu 10.10 is slow? Any reasons?
[15:27] <galusr> BluesKaj: There is only two partitions I thought. It does look like 3 though here. I'll try mounting them now.
[15:27] <uLinux> just find how to clear auth.log "sudo bash" "cat /dev/null > /var/log/auth.log"
[15:28] <dakota_> aeon-ltd I am running the Xfce desktop. I  am running Docky too. I CHECK THE COMPIZ OPTION...
[15:28] <undecim> alan__: Have you checked your system monitor for processes hogging CPU/RAM?
[15:28] <travlingeek> so i have made a live usb of ubuntu and i have created a persistance on the usb thumb drive and i have many many extra software install on it i would like to know when im gonna install ubuntu on my netbook  will it install all those extra software  that was added to the thumbdrive in the persistance or not
[15:28] <alan__> When i had a lower version of ubuntu it was fine but sense i installed 10.10 today, its been slow to hell.
[15:28] <undecim> travlingeek: No it won't
[15:28] <alan__> undecim: Where do i check that?
[15:29] <dli> alan__, run 'top' in terminal
[15:29] <undecim> alan_: System -> Administration -> System Monitor
[15:29] <travlingeek> thanks undecim
[15:29] <undecim> alan__: Look at the processes tab, and click "% CPU" or "Memory" to sort the list by CPU or RAM usage
[15:30] <alan__> Do you want a screenshot?
[15:30] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: just try this, in a terminal 'killall docky' then 'docky'
[15:30] <tiox> alan: Maybe you can move the preference files over for each program, but that's it -- you gotta reinstall everything.
[15:30] <outlaw84> Is it normal for an ubuntu installation to be running a kernel that is from Red Hat? When checking in /proc/version?
[15:30] <tgywa> jrib, I am doing my first packaging ... question ...about the control file ... should I create my self ... or is that included in the downloaded source package?
[15:30] <undecim> alan__: No that's fine. Is there anything using up a lot of CPU or memory?
[15:30] <madjoe> hi! can I limit an application not to use more than 50% of available RAM?
[15:30] <dakota_> how do you enable compiz in Xfce..
[15:31] <alan__> Well look:  2319 alan      20   0  847m 599m 4008 S   90 60.5 532:05.79 plugin-containe
[15:31] <gantrixx> how can I tell if I have the Intel GMA 550 chipset?
[15:31] <drew212_> is there a way to completely remove a program and install fresh? I have eclipse and want to uninstall, but --purge doens't remove everything, when i reinstall it it still has all the plugins installed
[15:31] <tiox> Can you type in compiz and enable it?
[15:31] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: have you got it installed?
[15:31] <B-r00t> dakota_: you must install compiz
[15:31] <undecim> madjoe: I think you can set user limits on the process... I'd have to look up how to do it though
[15:31] <outlaw84> drew212_: have you tried to remove ~/.eclipse ?
[15:31] <dli> gantrixx, lspci|grep GMA
[15:31] <drew212_> outlaw84: no
[15:31] <dakota_> aeon-ltd that fixed it but the when I typed docky once agaain it went back to the problem.
[15:31] <dli> gantrixx, or generally, lspci|grep -i vga
[15:31] <madjoe> undecim: please do. I use Karmic x64
[15:32] <tiox> I was gonna suggest Synaptic, since you can also use the completely remove option there.
[15:32] <PowerTux> hi all, anyone knows why it rewrite printers.conf putting AuthInfoRequired username,password to a windows printer ?

[15:33] <galusr> BluesKaj: The usage info is quite long. :(
[15:33] <drew212_> outlaw84: i'm trying that now
[15:33] <dli> alan__, make sure you have free Mem: Swap:, do not have high usually on %CPU %MEM. if you say something like 99 , 49, etc.
[15:33] <tiox> Let's face it: Ubuntu is becoming bloated because of all the extra stuff that comes with it. Don't want a bloated OS? Compile your own kernel. ;)
[15:33] <HexLaTor> FFForever, services
[15:33] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: do you use synaptics, the package manager?
[15:34] <dli> tiox, or just install debian
[15:34] <gantrixx> dli, It says I have VGA compatible controller: Intel Corportation System Controller Hub ( SCH Poulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 06)
[15:34] <dakota_> I just use the Software Center or install it maunally in the terminal with aptitude.
[15:34] <gantrixx> dli, this speaks about the driver not the chipset doesn't it?
[15:34] <alan__> tinypic is slow today, im just uploading a screenshot
[15:34]  * tiox runs like the dickens
[15:35] <dli> gantrixx, poulsbo, it says all, return the computer to intel, and ask for replacement
[15:35] <alan__> dli: Here is a screenshot -> http://oi54.tinypic.com/oro4s1.jpg
[15:35] <dakota_> aeon-ltd I just use Software Center or Istall things manually in terminal.
[15:35] <MysteryGuest> hI -- i'm using grub 2 but when I get a new kernel image only the old grub menu.lst is updated, not grub.cfg.  What should I do?
[15:35] <gantrixx> dli, you are being fascisious.....what are you talking about?
[15:36] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: ok install compiz and ccsm
[15:36] <tiox> gantrixx: Ubuntu IS Debian with a lot of stuff.
[15:36] <dli> alan__, plugin! must be from adobe flash :( sudo pkill -9 plugin
[15:36] <ats> My internet connection is not working in 10.04, I upgraded it recently.
[15:36] <gantrixx> tiox, what does that have to do with returning my computer?
[15:36] <dakota_> aeon-ltd CCSN what is that exactly..
[15:36] <undecim> madjoe: Looks like the ulimit commad will do what you want... Do you want this to apply one time, or every time you lauch a program?
[15:36] <dli> gantrixx, you have poulsbo, don't expect much support here, or in linux generally

[15:37] <alan__> Wish i didn't upgrade to 10.10
[15:38] <tiox> Wow, that's bold...
[15:38] <alan__> Might just install debian
[15:38] <tiox> I wanna hold a quick vote.

[15:39] <joeyeye> tiox, I have no problem with 10.10 on hp mini netbook, compiz and unity are fine
[15:39] <WXZ> that says "log off, shut down, restart" etc.
[15:39] <ats> My internet connection is not working in 10.04, via ethernet. What should be the reason
[15:39] <enkidu> muh-die-kuh: you will need software mixer for that, but you can use arecord - | aplay -
[15:39] <tiox> dogmatic69: Yes, x64 FTW. But also, hard to play with for newbs because they can't just whip out the ubuntu-restricted-extras package for Flash and JS.
[15:39] <madjoe> undecim: well, I use 1.5GB of RAM, so 300MB should be enough?
[15:39] <dakota_> aeon-ltd it says I already have the latest version of compiz but when i typed the command to install ccsm it could not find such a package.
[15:39] <enkidu> to record from current input and to play on out
[15:40] <dli> alan__, there are open source flash plugins out there, not sure whether they are acceptable for you or not
[15:40] <mcantor> Anyone?  How can I convince gnome-terminal to set its TERM to "xterm-256color" instead of just "xterm"?
[15:40] <gantrixx> It seems that the Unity interface will not run on a Dell mini 10.  They state that it has the Intel GMA 550 GPU chipset.  I've not been able to verify this, but I have installed the Poulsbo drivers as recommended and it still doesn't work
[15:40] <muh-die-kuh> enkidu: i'll check that. thanks. any hints on which software mixer you want to use these days? (my knowledge on this topic might be outdated…)
[15:40] <Gangrel> how do i unistall KDE?
[15:40] <offy> When I open a folder using the Places drop down list. It just loads open office and nothing happens. It opens the folder if I open Nautilus to view folders
[15:40] <dli> alan__, apt-cache search flash|grep plugin
[15:40] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: it has the full name 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or you can install simple-ccsm
[15:40] <SaRy> WXZ,indicator applet session !
[15:40] <undecim> madjoe: Okay, so 300 MB = 307,200 KB, so you need to right-click on your menu, choose "edit menus" and find chrome.
[15:40] <drew212_> what is a terminal alias? how do i create one to connect to my home box if i type ssh homebox, instead of the IP?
[15:40] <enkidu> muh-die-kuh: dunno, it depends on hw
[15:40] <dakota_> aeon-ltd found it on Software Center
[15:41] <aeon-ltd> Gangrel: sudo apt-get remove kde (or kubuntu-desktop if you installed that)
[15:41] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: ok
[15:41] <undecim> madjoe: Then, you will want to edit it and replace the command with this: sh -c "ulimit -Hv 307200; google-chrome"
[15:42] <gp5st> sorry if this isn't the best place; i figured since it differs in ubuntu from the pecl package: can someone help me with using uuid_create from php5-uuid in ubuntu? I get 'call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated' and  'parameter wasn't passed by reference' when i tried to remove the &. I understand why I need pass-by-reference here, but I don't know how to do it in the constructs of php
[15:42] <alan__> dli: What one do you recommend
[15:42] <madjoe> undecim: cool! I'll try that! thanks!
[15:42] <undecim> madjoe: If you do that, every time you launch chrome from the menu, it will be restricted to 300MB ram
[15:43] <dli> alan__, I suggest you to try lightspark, which is not in ubuntu yet
[15:43] <dakota_> aeon-ltd but docky still causes the problem when started, should I  restart or what..
[15:43] <undecim> madjoe: If you have a desktop or panel shortcut, you need to remove it and make a new one from the editted menu shortcut
[15:43] <alan__> hm
[15:43] <madjoe> undecim: great! hopefully Chrome won't crash my Ubuntu anymore
[15:43] <Exploiter> i got error, unable to connect to dbus while booting up.. and then low grapic memory
[15:43] <blackshell> can anyone guide me how to install lamp on my ubuntu system,i did not get good resource from internet
[15:43] <Exploiter> where in sys log i can chech this error?
[15:43] <madjoe> undecim: I use a panel shortcut, but I think I can handle that
[15:43] <dli> alan__, lightspark uses less cpu then adobe flash, but not yet feature complete
[15:43] <WXZ> SaRy:
[15:43] <undecim> madjoe: XD. If you find you need to teak that value, you can change the 307200 to whatever KB you want.
[15:43] <William_> hi
[15:43] <WXZ> all I get when I add that is "no indicators"
[15:44] <alan__> OKay thanks.
[15:44] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: start runnning compiz, then restart docky
[15:44] <dli> alan__, if you just want to play youtube, sudo apt-get install minitube
[15:44] <madjoe> undecim: got it! :)
[15:44] <alan__> Yeah thats all i need :)
[15:44] <blackshell> can anyone guide me how to install lamp on my ubuntu system,i did not get good resource from internet
[15:44] <dli> alan__, lightspark can play all youtube too
[15:44] <SaRy> WXZ,
[15:44] <erUSUL> !lamp | blackshell
[15:45] <William_> lamp
[15:45] <dakota_> aeon-ltd thats what I did but then it whent to the way it was when docky was restarted.
[15:45] <alan__> I've installed minitube now.
[15:45] <undecim> madjoe: I'd kind of like to know though if this works. I know chrome eats up a lot of RAM because it runs each tab in a new thread, and I don't know if that limit counts for each thread or if it's shared among them.
[15:45] <WXZ> yes?
[15:45] <offy> When I open a folder using the Places drop down list. It just loads open office and nothing happens. It opens the folder if I open Nautilus to view folders
[15:45] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: please take a new screenshot please,
[15:45] <SaRy> WXZ, What you did exactly.
[15:45] <alan__> Okay question about conky, i've installed it but now on the tutorial its saying: "Make a configuration file in your home directory (Ex:-/home/ubuntuadmin)", though that doesn't even exist?
[15:45] <WXZ> but i wrote something after it
[15:46] <madjoe> undecim: oh, good point... since each tab is a separate process, somehow I think it won't work for all of them
[15:46] <madjoe> undecim: we'll see
[15:46] <WXZ> (10:43:57 AM) WXZ: all I get when I add that is "no indicators"
[15:46] <undecim> alan_: You need to make a .conkyrc file in your home directory
[15:46] <alan__> So: /home/alan/ ?
[15:46] <tiox> Pretty much.
[15:46] <madjoe> undecim: can I put %U at the end like this? sh -c "ulimit -Hv 307200; google-chrome %U"
[15:46] <dakota_> aeon-ltd it looks the same as before in the screenshot I just took, but when docky is quit it looks normal and everything wroks fine and the black bar is gone, but it looks just as it did before with docky enabled.
[15:46] <dli> alan__, your home directory is '~', "$HOME" in terminal
[15:46] <outlaw84> quit
[15:47] <drew212_> im getting a bad assignment trying to use an alias, whys that?
[15:47] <undecim> madjoe: Yup, just like that
[15:47] <madjoe> ok
[15:47] <WXZ> SaRy: all I get when I add that is "no indicators"
[15:47] <WXZ> full sentence.
[15:47] <undecim> alan_: /home/alan/.conkyrc would be your conky config file, yes
[15:47] <alan__> ah thanks
[15:47] <SaRy> WXZ, i see
[15:47] <Exploiter> alan_ if you need, i have a cool conky myself.. let me know..
[15:47] <undecim> alan_: You will probably want to copy someone else's config file to start with
[15:48] <tensorpudding> drew212_: what is what you're trying to alias, exactly?
[15:48] <SaRy> WXZ, !see bug 548414
[15:48] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: even running compiz? did you do 'compiz --replace' in terminal before restarting docky?
[15:48] <tiox> !conky | tiox
[15:48] <WXZ> SaRy: and I can't click it, well I can, but it does nothing
[15:48] <undecim> alan_: There is a huge thread on the ubuntu forums with conky configs and screenshots
[15:48] <WXZ> !see bug 548414
[15:48] <drew212_> ssh to my home box, i dont want to type an IP

[15:49] <drew212_> dli: hostname? how do i do that?
[15:49] <dakota_> aeon-ltd  just figured that out and eveything works fine now thanx.
[15:49] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: oh ok, good :)
[15:49] <stealth_> Hey people, I need to recover a document for a friend off a SD drive. The thing is, it is a .docx file. Anyone know a tool that can recover these files, because foremost can not recover them to the best of my knowledge
[15:49] <dli> drew212_, the easiest, put in your /etc/hosts
[15:49] <tensorpudding> drew212_: you could either add the host to /etc/hosts, or make an entry in ~/.ssh/config
[15:49] <dli> drew212_, a line like: <IP_ADDRESS> myhome
[15:49] <drew212_> alright
[15:50] <MysteryGuest> HI -- I have grub2 installed but ubuntu kernel udpates do not update grub.cfg -- just the old menu.lst.  What should I do?
[15:50] <dli> drew212_, even better, install dnsmasq as well, sudo apt-get install dnsmasq, and put "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" as your first line in /etc/resolv.conf
[15:51] <dli> MysteryGuest, sudo update-grub
[15:51] <abhinav_singh2> how to install tar.gz file?
[15:51] <dli> MysteryGuest, grub2 doesn't use menu.lst, grub.cfg is auto-generated
[15:51] <MysteryGuest> dli -- doesn't update grub.cfg...just menu.lst
[15:51] <jdimatteo> hi all, I'm trying to boot my Ubuntu 9.10 system into single user mode or recovery mode from grub 2.  after I select "recovery mode" from the grub menu, a second menu comes up with options like "Resume" and "Drop to root shell prompt", but I can't seem to choose "Drop to root shell prompt" because a bunch of text like "Starting NTP server ntpd" overwrites my screen.  can someone please help me?
[15:51] <aeon-ltd> abhinav_singh2: what's inside it? source code? a theme?
[15:51] <tiz-> .tar.gz is a zip file
[15:51] <tensorpudding> abhinav_singh2: unpack it, then read the installation instructions provided on the site you downloaded it from
[15:51] <dli> abhinav_singh2, depends, but mostly, ./configure;make;sudo make install
[15:51] <dakota_> aeon-ltd but now I need to remove the bottom panel in Xfce have any Ideas, i tried removing it like I would in Gnome but it wont work.
[15:52] <innerand> Hello, I m using ubuntu 10.10 on ssd. noatime for all volumes, swapiness set to 10, iosheduler is deatline, /tmp and /var/log are tmpfs. Direktly after booting i have 2GB written data (iostat). If i deaktivate swap i have no written data ( < 1MB). Is it possible that something writes the full 2 GB swap during boot?
[15:52] <dakota_> aeon-ltd already figured it out..
[15:52] <tensorpudding> abhinav_singh2: all that it being a .tar.gz file means that it is a compressed archive with files in it. there is no general way to "install" what is in it unless it has some more specific structure.
[15:52] <undecim> abhinav_singh2: .tar.gz files are archive files, like a .zip file on windows. If you are trying to install a program, have you made sure that it's not in the Ubuntu software center?
[15:52] <dli> dakota_, right click on panel to set panel properties, or find it in xfce setting manager
[15:53] <tensorpudding> abhinav_singh2: for instance, if it is full of themes, it can probably be installed using the Install... button in the Appearance menu
[15:53] <MysteryGuest> dli: udpate-grub does not update grub.cfg -- it updates menu.lst which is not used by grub2
[15:53] <aeon-ltd> dakota_: heh :) lol
[15:53] <glaucous> Sometimes while booting kernel (text mode) the kernel (1/4 times) stop loading, and if frozen until I push the power button - then the boot continues. What exactly happens when I push the power button during boot? Because it always works.
[15:53] <dli> MysteryGuest, weird, do you have grub2?
[15:53] <jdimatteo> how do I boot into single user mode / recover mode so that NTP and NFS mounts don't get hung up?
[15:53] <Exploiter> Oct 14 16:53:47 linux-Desktop init: Unable to connect to the system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused
[15:53] <Exploiter> any idea anyone?
[15:53] <dli> dakota_, you can also run in terminal: xfce4-panel -c
[15:54] <MysteryGuest> dli: yes!  grub legacy won't boot my machine
[15:54] <jk_> j #ceidades ceider
[15:54] <alan__> Okay im on here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865
[15:54] <tensorpudding> jdimatteo: pretty sure that single-user mode implies that network daemons like that don't start up
[15:54] <alan__> Says: Add dbe module to /etc/X11/xorg.conf to reduce flickering.
[15:54] <alan__> sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:54] <drew212_> dli: what if i want to type ssh homecomputer - where homecomputer =<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or whatever? its not working for me its saying cannot resolve hostname
[15:54] <dli> MysteryGuest, rm the menu.lst file, try again: sudo update-grub
[15:54] <alan__> Though i don't get no text to edit/
[15:54] <offy> When I open a folder using the Places drop down list. It just loads open office and nothing happens. It opens the folder if I open Nautilus to view folders
[15:55] <uLinux> where xset settings are saved?
[15:55] <tensorpudding> drew212_: does ping resolve the hostname to the correct IP?
[15:55] <jon_> donnell
[15:55] <jdimatteo> tensorpudding: I'm having trouble booting into single user mode.  can you please help me?
[15:55] <dli> drew212_, first, "ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>works for you
[15:55] <madjoe> undecim: I can see several chrome processes - one is owned by root and all the others are owned by me as a normal user... I just opened two tabs and I can see that the root process uses 217MB of RAM and all the other processes (more than 20!!) use the same value of 836MB of RAM
[15:55] <MysteryGuest> dli: I got the message: "Could not find /boot/grub/menu.lst file. Would you like /boot/grub/menu.lst generated for you? (y/N)"
[15:55] <tensorpudding> jdimatteo: it's the (recovery) option of GRUB2
[15:55] <dli> drew212_, then, you have a line in /etc/hosts: <IP_ADDRESS> myhomeserver
[15:56] <jdimatteo> tensorpudding,  after I select "recovery mode" from the grub menu, a second menu comes up with options like "Resume" and "Drop to root shell prompt", but I can't seem to choose "Drop to root shell prompt" because when I hit the down arrow key to navigate down to that option, a bunch of text like "Starting NTP server ntpd" overwrites my screen
[15:56] <undecim> madjoe: More than 20 processes? Do you have that many tabs open?
[15:56] <madjoe> undecim: no, I opened only 2 tabs
[15:56] <tensorpudding> jdimatteo: are you sure sure that you're not hitting the resume option?
[15:56] <drew212_> dli: nope
[15:56] <undecim> madjoe: What I think is really weird is the one running as root...
[15:56] <alan__> Thats one thing i've noticed with google chrome, if you have so many tabs open it uses more processes,
[15:56] <madjoe> undecim: oh, those 20 processes are /usr/bin/google-chrome
[15:57] <drew212_> dli yes ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or wahtever works
[15:57] <offy> When I open a folder using the Places drop down list. It just loads open office and nothing happens. It opens the folder if I open Nautilus to view folders

[15:57] <dli> MysteryGuest, sudo less /usr/sbin/update-grub
[15:57] <dli> MysteryGuest, sudo which update-grub
[15:57] <madjoe> undecim: and there are 2 processes that are recognized like /opt/google/chrome/chrome and both of those use 911MB

[15:59] <jdimatteo> tensorpudding: yeah, I guess so, I'll try to go faster :)
[15:59] <MRS23FF> i think it is a bios problem...

[16:00] <madjoe> undecim: oh, I was looking at the virtual mem, not RES! sorry... well, thse /opt/google/chrome processes use 143M! both of them!
[16:00] <MysteryGuest> dli: works fine -- do you want to see the whole thing?
[16:00] <drew212_> dli: that doesnt work either
[16:00] <tensorpudding> MRS23FF: double restarts?
[16:00] <undecim> madjoe: So they are using a total of less than 300 MB?
[16:00] <dli> MysteryGuest, no, does the file show grub.cfg?

[16:04] <Zaca12>   /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[16:04] <undecim> toader: If you open a terminal, you can type "swapon -s" to see a summary of your active swap partitions, their size, and their current usage
[16:04] <dli> drew212_, you are supposed to type "ssh user@server" or "ssh server", if username stays
[16:04] <Zaca12> could anyone help?
[16:04] <undecim> madjoe: Awesome
[16:04] <drew212_> dli: ping myhomeserver does not work
[16:05] <tensorpudding> MRS23FF: this sounds like a problem with your laptop, not with Linux, if you're saying it boots correctly
[16:05] <madjoe> undecim: that is a valuable information, thanks for that!
[16:05] <toader> undecim: i think it is not this info
[16:05] <toader> undecim: i want to know the page size

[16:06] <goltoof_>  any way to force some tabs to stay open.. ie, 4 tabs that stay open no matter what ?

[16:06] <madjoe> undecim: sweet! if you find out anything, drop me a message :) even if this workaround seems to be bulletproof already
[16:06] <dli> drew212_, that means ping gets the IP correctly

[16:07] <drew212_> dli: that works, but what i want to do is ssh homecomputer
[16:07] <drew212_> rather than type ssh user@myhomeserver
[16:07] <goltoof_> blackshell:  apache, php, mysql should already be running
[16:08] <goltoof_> blackshell: after installing lamp
[16:08] <sresu> Agregator or any feed reader uses feeds to load the webpage of the feed. Same goes for bookmarks, but webpage link may change and I may not load what I need. Is there a way by which I can save webpages just by bookmarking it in browser?
[16:08] <drew212_> dli: i'm super lazy =)
[16:08] <undecim> toader: Maybe this is what you want. Type "grep Page /proc/meminfo"
[16:08] <uLinux> !pulseaudio
[16:09] <blackshell> goltoof_:so what  is the location of www of the localhost,as in wamp it was wamp/www
[16:09] <BluesKaj> drew212_, open /etc/hosts.allow , type portmap below the last line , then list tghe IPs on your lan like this  ALL:192.168.x.x . Some say the list can work ALL:<IP_ADDRESS>/23 as an example of a series of included IPs ,but I prefer to list the exact IPs

[16:09] <xckpd7> question: using ubuntu 10.10 (or whatever it's called) and playing .mov files, and there is some weird title overlay on the actual movie: how to get rid of this? (it doesn't happen when viewing the file in other operating systems)
[16:10] <undecim> uLinux: you can use pasuspender if you have a single app that doesn't work with pulse
[16:10] <blackshell> goltoof_:thanks
[16:10] <undecim> uLinux: Otherwise, you could just uninstall it?
[16:10] <goltoof_> blackshell:  you can reconfigure apache to host a different directory, ie  ~/localhost
[16:10] <dli> uLinux, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[16:10] <uLinux> undecim: ok but then i get sound to work?
[16:10] <uLinux> lol

[16:11] <Grey_Loki> Hi, I want to re-set my grub(2, I think) install after it somehow zonked and forgot that I have an XP installation on this machine. I have Ubuntu 10.4 installed through Wubi, and an XPSP3 install on this laptop. The XPSP3 install is on the first partition of two on this single disk, and the Ubuntu install is in a 10GB file in the second partition. What tools/steps do I need to be looking at to reconfigure grub now that it seem
[16:12] <drew212_> BluesKaj: do i do this on the computer im SSHing to or from?
[16:12] <gizmobay> I ran memtest and it failed. Now it passes even though I didn't touch a thing. How can this be?
[16:12] <v_v> hello, any util to get the sha1 value of a file ?
[16:13] <undecim> v_v: in a terminal, type "sha1sum /path/to/file"
[16:14] <undecim> gizmobay: RAM that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, obviously
[16:15] <blackshell> goltoof_:how?
[16:15] <Grey_Loki> Additionally to the above, i've just tried running grub-mkconfig (which from what i'm reading is now the default way of getting grub2 to recognise installed OSes), and it recognised several Ubuntu installs (i.e, the past two kernels and their recovery modes), and one other install which it calls Ubuntu, but which has completely different settings and information compared to the other four.
[16:15] <antonio_mazzarri> some expert on ubiquity ? need to remove it from my live-usb distro...
[16:16] <antonio_mazzarri> thanks in advance
[16:16] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Just remove the ubiquity package
[16:17] <delac> is there any way to monitor users desktop session over e.g. ssh?
[16:17] <alan__> Okay i've installed conky, so far, made the file for it, now what do i do?
[16:17] <gizmobay> hmm thanks undecim the RAM is brand new.
[16:17] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: done, no luck. when i reboot the key, ubuntu reinstall ubiquity... dunno why!
[16:18] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: How did you remove it?
[16:18] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: If you remove it from the live system, it won't save changes, because the live system stores changes in RAM, which is wiped on reboot
[16:18] <v_v> undecim: hey , thank you .
[16:18] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: with apt-get... i made a mistake? apt-get remove ubiquity and all the ubiquity's packages
[16:19] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: ah .. correct, thats what i'm doing... is there any other way to remove it, please?
[16:19] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: err... not "any other way", but the correct way to remove it :D
[16:19] <nertil> is it possible logmein on ubuntu ?
[16:19] <MAD-PPAS> hi there i need to now how to Synaptics TouchPad ubuntu 10.10
[16:20] <MAD-PPAS> how to install that and us :)
[16:20] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: You need to extract the squashfs that's on the CD/Thumb drive that you're using, chroot into the extracted directory, and THEN apt-get --purge remove it.
[16:20] <MAD-PPAS> " Synaptics TouchPad "
[16:20] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Or, I recommend using aptitude to find and remove/add packages.
[16:20] <nertil> is it possible logmein on ubuntu ?
[16:20] <nertil> is it possible logmein on ubuntu ?
[16:21] <undecim> nertil: not AFAIK

[16:21] <undecim> nertil: as far as i know
[16:21] <researcher1> is it easy to make Xp the default system in a dual boot where Ubuntu is already the default OS
[16:21] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: ok, thanks.. i'll use aptitude (not apt-get). undecim excuse me for the stupid question (i'm not an advanced user), 1) mount -o loop filesystem.squashfs /somedir .. 2) chroot . 3) remove
[16:21] <antonio_mazzarri> correct?
[16:22] <_vaibhav_> in system monitor How I can monitor stats of different lan connection?
[16:22] <jsjc> I have an ubuntu that I just realized (due to slow internet connection) that there is something wrong going on... al my NIC are dropping packets by the million/sec
[16:22] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: You can't mount squashfs read-write. You have to extract it, do your modifications, then rebuild it.
[16:22] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Say, would this be a thumb drive or a CD?
[16:22] <antonio_mazzarri> argh.. :)
[16:22] <BluesKaj> drew212_, both , if they're linux
[16:22] <delac> any way to record another users desktop session as video over ssh?
[16:22] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: usb !
[16:23] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: How large of a drive? and are you planning on using it to store stuff other than Ubuntu?
[16:23] <nertil> aptidute!
[16:23] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: my usb disk is 64Gb... i'll store on it ONLY ubuntu (customized)
[16:23] <MRS23FF> is there somebody who can help me with a problem related to suspend / resume on ubuntu and a power problem

[16:24] <genie> Hello all, I am trying to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 but I am getting an error say : Authentication failed
[16:24] <genie> Authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server.
[16:24] <genie> any suggestion?
[16:24] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Well, you have a few options then... You could just use another thumb drive or a CD to install Ubuntu to that thumb drive. Or, you can make a custom live usb without squashfs if you want to clear changes every time it boots
[16:24] <MRS23FF> upgrade with an cd
[16:25] <lou1234> anyone know how to remove a bad package?
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> lou1234: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename
[16:25] <lou1234> I tried install the big-si themes and apparently the eco them is broke
[16:25] <jrib> lou1234: define "bad package"
[16:25] <lou1234> it was a package of themes and the last theme apparently is missing some lines in the file
[16:26] <lou1234> i tried to manually install the .deb packages
[16:26] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: There are benefits to both. The installation being easier and upgradeable, though a live system tends to be more stable when used across multiple computers
[16:26] <lou1234> but everything seems to eb a bit broke
[16:26] <Licuadora> I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!!

[16:28] <Benkinooby> i installed lubuntu-desktop.how can i get rid of all the lxde stuuf now? the lubuntu-desktop packages seems to be a package-collection that can be installed but not removed.
[16:28] <researcher1> how can I identify myself as my  nick is registered on freenode
[16:28] <Wavesonics|work> this is the worst ubuntu upgrade ive had in YEARS
[16:28] <jrib> researcher1: #freenode can help you with that
[16:29] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: yes, sure.. that's what i've done! i made an usb stick + persistance.. but the problem is still the same, sometime ubiquity ask me to install or try ubuntu
[16:29] <rusty149> Benkinooby: sudo apt-get purge lubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get autoremove
[16:29] <researcher1> ok
[16:29] <sipior> Wavesonics|work: nice way to begin a conversation.
[16:29] <cfairles> sectorb, don't use -w ? filter for http protocol ? tcpdump -Xvv | less -n ?
[16:29] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: and i've my stuffs on it!
[16:29] <Benkinooby> researcher1, this seems to be the wrong channel. try #freenode. but to answer your question: /msg NickServ identify <password>
[16:29] <lou1234> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/513193/
[16:29] <obengdako> Wavesonics|work: why do you say so/
[16:29] <jrib> lou1234: I need full output and your input
[16:29] <Benkinooby> rusty149, thank you
[16:29] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: my ubuntu + persistance works great... but this ugly ubiquity... argh!
[16:29] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Well, you could also just modify the syslinux config to always go to desktop instead of asking to install
[16:30] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: ok, how ?! :D
[16:30] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: if i can do that, its ok for me
[16:30] <acer_> Was trying to repair grub from a 10.10 upgrade but the repair system doesn't recognize the /sra1 or /sra2 partitions as a a valid one or does't find grup files, is it possible?
[16:30] <cfairles> sectorb, tcpdump -Xvv tcp | less -n or something
[16:30] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: I believe it's the "text.cfg" file in the syslinux folder
[16:30] <obengdako> Wavesonics|work: adam why do you say this is the worst upgrade?
[16:30] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: yes, and i dont have the "ubiquity" on my startup line
[16:31] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: that's why i'm becaming crazy :)

[16:34] <mikedep333> hey guys, my Lucid GNOME Ubuntu system is stuck during the (graphical) upgrade to 10.10. It's stuck in the middle of configuring grub-common. How do I report an upgrade bug like this? I report bugs on apps all the time, but what package should I report it on (with apport-bug). Is there a special way to report upgrade bugs?
[16:34] <sectorb> _nice_ thanks cfairles
[16:34] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, 10.10 upgrade
[16:34] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: and other 2 lines with the name of the system, like label live, kernel blablabla
[16:35] <Wavesonics|work> acer_,  upgrade of a Wubi install though? Or is it on a physical partition?

[16:44] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, then u need to regenerate the grub data once ur booted in
[16:44] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, not sure, but I think I still able to boot from command line here.

[16:44] <gpetrakis> undecim: how do i setup the line in fstab and fixing the uswsusp?
[16:44] <erUSUL> galusr_: not enough. complete dmesg ???  a lot of apps segfaulting mixed with the actual oops message.
[16:45] <jrib> Benwa: how about /usr/bin/killall ?
[16:45] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, how did you find it at first time?
[16:45] <undecim> gpetrakis: My fstab swap line looks like this: UUID=a54dda5e-c297-4db3-a49e-f1af66685cd3 none            swap    sw              0       0

[16:45] <gpetrakis> undecim: where do i find this?
[16:45] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, just searching around for my problem, found a mailing list or bug ro something, and in the comments someone linked to their blog where they detailed the fix
[16:45] <undecim> gpetrakis: You need to put a line it /etc/fstab that looks just like that, but with your own swap's UUID, which you can get by typing "blkid" in a terminal

[16:47] <eskofd> Hello, i'm usin ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200M] and Ubuntu 10.10. Screen is flickering, didn't do that with ubuntu 10.04. Haven't changed any settings and using open source drivers. Any suggestions what to do?
[16:47] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, and where is this computer now?
[16:47] <jrib> Benwa: k, in ubuntu it's in the psmisc package
[16:47] <robinsmidsrod> actually, it seems like I must do an initctl reload-configuration before service service_name start works - how come?
[16:47] <undecim> alex88: Then you can disconnect from wireless, and run "sudo rmmod iwlagn; sudo modprobe iwlagn"
[16:47] <alex88> undecim: i had atheror 5008 and it has n working..btw i'll try that thank you..
[16:47] <Wavesonics|work> 10.10 has screwed up my Ethernet port, so if I unplug my cable and replug it, it doesnt detect it and start up,  again, any ideas?
[16:47] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, man, this computer may worst a fortune!!!

[16:47] <Threepwood5> I'm using mplayer in my Python script, But it comes back with loads of unwanted text when playing a file, Is there a Quite switch? ( I couldn't find it )
[16:47] <jrib> lou1234: one way to remove it would be to do "dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq packagename", otherwise you need to figure out why the package is not installing correctly and sort that out
[16:48] <alex88> undecim: oh..only iwlang..thank you...now trying..
[16:48] <gpetrakis> undecim: i have a UUID line there
[16:48] <undecim> Threepwood5: Put "> /dev/null" at the end of the command
[16:48] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, so you think we should stop talking?
[16:48] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: ah ok.. he'll search "txt.cfg" but i've the same 5 lines on it :) ahah... i'm becaming crazy, trust me!  If you already have one that says swap, then you're fine.

[16:48] <finalblogger> i cant configure my yahoo account in chat?
[16:48] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, can you see a light in the end of the tunnel for me? or for my grub?
[16:48] <finalblogger> any help
[16:49]  * erUSUL waves back
[16:49] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, srry im @ work, cant spend any more time, but if u are at a grub command line when u boot, then u CAN recover it, thats for sure
[16:49] <undecim> gpetrakis: You should have a swap partition by default if you let Ubuntu manage the partition setup
[16:49] <Threepwood5> undecim: Forgot I could do that, Thanks
[16:49] <galusr_> erUSUL: I'm not sure how to check. Seems sufficient while running apps in GNOME and remotely via FreeNX though.
[16:49] <gpetrakis> undecim: i have only one for the /dev/sdb1
[16:49] <alan__> How do i uninstall ubuntu games?
[16:50] <undecim> gpetrakis: So nothing with "swap" in it?
[16:50] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, like i said there are those 3 commands "linux" "initrd" and "boot" which will allow u to boot ur install, research them to find their arguments, and GRUB2 supports tab complete so u can get ur kernel image names easily
[16:50] <alan__> Though i want to keep python and all its using..
[16:50] <gpetrakis> undecim: no
[16:50] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, once ur in the install u need to run the grub update program to reinit grub
[16:50] <erUSUL> galusr_: free -m; all those error come from oom killer killing apps becouse you run out of memory. so either there is a memory leak somewhere or you are overloading the mchine
[16:50] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, I believe in you, but I need a recipe.
[16:50] <undecim> gpetrakis: You will need to make one on a livecd with GParted then.
[16:51] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, thats to vage for me. I need something very clear step by step.
[16:51] <acer_> They shouldn't have released this upgrade. This is a disgrace!
[16:52] <gpetrakis> undecim: how big to do the swap partition
[16:52] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, ya im pretty frustrated w\ it as well :(
[16:52] <alex88> undecim: worked..it says abgn on iwconfig..but 65mb/s..but i'll try if it works fine...thank you
[16:52] <sipior> acer_: maybe you can get your money back.
[16:52] <undecim> gpetrakis: If you want to hibernate, make it the size of your ram.
[16:52] <jakov1> Hi. does anyone owns asus netbook? I'd like to install a ubuntu on it (from pendrive), but I don't know how can I reboot the asus express gate... anyone?
[16:52] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, ur in luck
[16:52] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, i found some paper i had written the commands on
[16:52] <acer_> sipior, if I had put money on it I would have at least my right to sue this company.
[16:52] <undecim> alex88: I think 65mb/s is wireless N at top speed
[16:52] <gpetrakis> undecim: as big as the RAM size?
[16:53] <undecim> gpetrakis: Yup
[16:53] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, great.
[16:53] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, are you at the GRUB command line?
[16:53] <alex88> undecim: mbit..it would be 300 teorically..
[16:53] <undecim> alex88: Oh, nvm, I just googled it, lol
[16:53] <acer_> No, I need to reset the machine to try access it and see.
[16:53] <undecim> alex88: Or maybe there is confusion of bits vs bytes here...
[16:54] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, so ur on the same machine?
[16:54] <alex88> undecim: np..because on win router says connected at 300 and now 130...but i'll test better :) thanks for the time
[16:54] <Wavesonics|work> acer_, thats gonna b a pain...
[16:54] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, yes
[16:54] <Grey_Loki> How can I find a list of what's on my various hard drives and partitions?
[16:54] <Grey_Loki> I have a windows install somewhere, but i'm not sure what Ubuntu is calling it
[16:54] <Grey_Loki> i.e, dev/sdax, with x being the partition number
[16:54] <acer_> Wavesonics|work, I can try log on a different machine and test it. but I cannot loose windows man!
[16:55] <anodesni> Hi, I'm trying to get my tv card working. Its a Pinnacle PCTV 73e SE, the driver is loaded correctly according to dmesg output. When I 'scan' with the initial channel file for my country I only get messages about "(tuning failed)". What's wrong?
[16:55] <PennStateJoe74> can anyone offer me some assistance creating a lirc.config file to turn on/or my television set using a serial ir blaster and known discrete codes
[16:55] <gpetrakis> Grey_Loki: with gparted from USC
[16:55] <galusr_> erUSUL: After running free -m it says I've have total 488, used 473 and free is 14. Is this MB? That would be half a GB of ram? Swap values for total, used and free are all at zero.  Is it strange that it would only max out the memory at this stage?
[16:55] <PennStateJoe74> i mean on/off
[16:55] <rusty149> Grey_Loki: blkid
[16:55] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: I have to leave for ~30 minutes, but I'll be back if you still need help
[16:56] <jefelex> windows is crap
[16:56] <antonio_mazzarri> undecim: thanks.. dont worry! i'm googling hope to find something ...
[16:56] <DrHalan> hey, how do i enable gallium3d when using nouveau?
[16:56] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, hey, that's me. I will leave the other machine and try with you a step by step recipe. Ok?
[16:56] <alex88> undecim: about ~4mbyte/S...seems nice..thank you :)
[16:56] <antonio_mazzarri> becuase is really strange i cannot make an usb stick without ubiquity! :(
[16:56] <antonio_mazzarri> later undecim
[16:56] <PennStateJoe74> lirc anyone
[16:56] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: You should just be able to copy the "live" option from text.cfg into syslinux.cfg
[16:57] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, sure
[16:57] <jefelex> I'm liking 10.04 - just upgraded from 9.10 - it is better
[16:57] <erUSUL> galusr_: yes half gig of ram. well dunno; the oom killer messages are there though. there are no other errors that i can see.
[16:57] <undecim> antonio_mazzarri: Anyways, time for me to go. bbl
[16:57] <antonio_mazzarri> bbl
[16:57] <antonio_mazzarri> !
[16:57] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, ok so are u at the GRUB cmd line?
[16:57] <cdubya> Looking for suggestions on a simple web interface for backup on server 10.04. I have a network drive I'm wanting to copy from to an attached external drive, but want to automate it.
[16:57] <rjharv> jefelex: why not go to 10.10
[16:57] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, yes, I am acer and someone here at office is KeenyG :P
[16:57] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, hold a sec. I will have to restart it.
[16:58] <jefelex> I want to try out 10.04 for a while - see if it needs to be upgraded
[16:58] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, GRUB command line is Linux command line, right?
[16:58] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, no
[16:58] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, GRUB is before u even boot linux
[16:58] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, its wher eu select what OS to boot
[16:58] <jefelex> rjhan:  has the floppy drive bug been ironed out of 10.10?
[16:58] <dschuett> anyone ever have a problem with ubuntu noticing when your isp changes your ipaddress...?
[16:58] <Wavesonics|work> kennyG, if there are no entries for OSs to boot, then u get a command line
[16:59] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, I am on GRUB startup window.
[17:00] <kennyG> Wavesonics|work, I have two different options : Win and Ubuntu. If I choose Win it boots from Windows 7 and it's working.
[17:00] <jefelex> gotta go - ttyl
[17:02] <DSN> well, ive ditched BT on HDD, commign back to ubuntu :D

[17:07] <galusr_> erUSUL: Ok and does dmesg include both startup and shutdown error messages? I wonder how I could analyse my ram to kill unnecessary apps that use alot of memory.
[17:07] <anodesni> Hi, I'm trying to get my tv card working. Its a Pinnacle PCTV 73e SE, the driver is loaded correctly according to dmesg output. When I 'scan' with the initial channel file for my country I only get messages about "(tuning failed)". What's wrong? I got it working before
[17:07] <erUSUL> galusr_: use top; order by memory use hitting "M"
[17:10] <mycroftmkiv> anodesni: You may need to load the firmware. see http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_nano_Stick_(73e)#Firmware_Installation
[17:10] <anodesni> mycroftmkiv, dmesg reports : dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw'  dib0700: firmware started successfully

[17:12] <martin_l336> hello room
[17:12] <martin_l336> :) any technician here?
[17:12] <aeon-ltd> !ask | martin_l336
[17:13] <martin_l336> Ok mod sorry ^^
[17:14] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: heh  aeon-ltd isn't a mod/op
[17:14] <galusr_> erUSUL: I think swap should solve that problem anyway. It seems to be when trying to startup some firefox thing that the problem is happening. Running top I can see firefox is fairly intensive. I think the shutdown info isn't included in dmesg though. Firefox would not be running at shutdown - the problem is near the end of the shutdown process aswell I think.
[17:15] <martin_l336> i'm wondering why my SIS graphic can't be identify in ubuntu 10.4? I already try to do almost all modification from ubuntuforum source and also other blogs but only return me with flickering screen or xconf fail. Now i'm using vesa driver running @1028x768.. my native resolution is 1366x768. I just wondering if i can push vesa driver confiugration to display
[17:15] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: lol because it red :P
[17:15] <firewalker22> ahoy hoy, does anybody in here know how to make the keyring start automatically on boot so it does not interfere with remote desktop login?
[17:15] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: the highlight?
[17:16] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: if a nick is used on IRC,  most clients high light
[17:16] <Quantum_Ion> keyring is annoying
[17:16] <firewalker22> yes it is!
[17:16] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: anyway I have bad news for you, SIS  doesn't exaclty work nicely with Ubuntu if at all relay
[17:16] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: yeah i know that already.... that's why i'm just curious about reconfigure my vesa to work with my native res
[17:17] <Quantum_Ion> firewalker22, the way to get rid of keyring is edit your start up menu and disable gnome keyring
[17:17] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: you probably won't get very far trying to get it to work
[17:17] <firewalker22> thxs quantum, will give that a try
[17:17] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: any advice for other version of gnome based that "maybe" have a little bit support to run my display
[17:18] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: i just need a 2d acc with native res only that
[17:18] <asw> hello,i need a sip voip client,any suggestions?thanks
[17:18] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: Gnome isn't responsible for your graphics card,  thats xorg, but also the Linux distro your using
[17:18] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: well the distros to an extent
[17:19] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: and yes hardware may work much better on another distro, but I think SIS will be a problem for like all of them
[17:19] <Caesi> Hello - could anyone help me with creating a Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 USB Startup?
[17:19] <sebsebseb> !usb | Caesi
[17:19] <Caesi> thanks sebsebseb
[17:19] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: yup know it already... that's why i need an advice.. some people reffering to use PClinuxos and mandriva that's running well
[17:19] <sebsebseb> Caesi: ok your welcome :)
[17:20] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: oh right interesting
[17:20] <Sven12345> hello how do i make my videos on my computer run more smothly and work better, basically what programs do i download to make videos run more smothly
[17:20] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: yeah PC Linux OS may even be the Desktop LInux distro that has the best hardware support at the moment
[17:20] <Matthew_> Hello
[17:20] <step21> Sven12345, get a faster computer or run less programs
[17:20] <KM0201> sebsebseb: really? i totally disagree.. I've got plenty of hardware that won't work w/ PCLOS, but works out of the box w/ Ubuntu
[17:21] <Matthew_> I don't know if this is the appropriate room, however can someone help me with ACPI settings?
[17:21] <Sven12345> step21 haha i know the videos can run more smothly since i also have windows on this very same computer so i want to know which programs can make the videos run equally as smothly as in windows
[17:21] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: also technically its very good, but going into some more details about that here would be off topic.   Mandriva can be good, but kind of pointless doing that one now,  because  a fork for it is on the verge of being made :)
[17:21] <step21> Sven12345, are they flash videos?
[17:21] <sebsebseb> KM0201: well depends on the hardware and how the distro does support
[17:21] <martin_l336> hmm
[17:22] <Sven12345> step21 no mkv videos
[17:22] <sebsebseb> KM0201: quite a lot of hardware that doesn't just work in Ubuntu like wireless and such for example, is likely to just work or be really easy  to have working in other distros such as that one, but right we are getting off topic now
[17:22] <KM0201> Sven12345: i think vlc will play them.
[17:22] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: so based on ur opinion that pclinux is the one who have the best hardware support for now?
[17:22] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: to be honest I don't use that distro, b ut have had in vm, and know someone online, who knows a lot about it, and even does packaging for them
[17:22] <Sven12345> kmo201 yes vlc will play them but i want a smother playing with less grainy picture and less hacking just as it works in windows
[17:23] <Macchia> 7EXIT
[17:23] <step21> Sven12345, then still the same applies, prob. windows has access to hardware decoding and linux doesn't, if you run the proper drivers already there is no program to fix that
[17:23] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: if you try another distro, you may find that your hardware works better
[17:23] <worthapp> hello i am looking for a SIP VoIP client,any suggestions?thanks
[17:23] <KM0201> martin_l336: what problem are you having?
[17:23] <Sven12345> step21 how do i check if i have the most update drivers and how do i update them and how do check which decoders are running
[17:24] <KM0201> worthapp: you mena other than skype?
[17:24] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: Ubuntu isn't like a magic gloove/shoe that fits all users and all computers, if you get what I mean
[17:24] <rajmahendra> any one help me... when ever i open software center it says 26 packages are broken  i try to use sudo apt-get -f install its not working
[17:24] <KM0201> sebsebseb: for that matter, no linux distro is
[17:25] <worthapp> KM0201, yes,i need a *SIP* client,not a peer2peer voip client
[17:25] <martin_l336> sebsebseb: yeah i know that.... just try to maximal my display resolution and 2d acc
[17:25] <sebsebseb> martin_l336: if you watn to talk about other distros a bit,  pm  would be a better place, since we are going off topic
[17:25] <KM0201> worthapp: ekiga  it's in the repositories
[17:25] <aeon-ltd> rajmahendra: try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[17:25] <KM0201> worthapp: there's a few others, but that one comes right off the top of my head
[17:26] <dzan> hi, someone knows a guide on how to best partition your hdd for a ubuntu server install? because if you do it automatic it all becomes one big partition.. not very good

[17:32] <Sven12345> step21 yes i did that but is that the latest drivers?
[17:32] <trism> !vnc | alan__
[17:32] <step21> Sven12345, there should be a box to check if they aren't installed
[17:33] <KM0201> poincare101: lspci in a terminal and determine yoru wireless chipset
[17:33] <Sven12345> step21 it is allready installed but what i want to know if the latest drivers are installed
[17:33] <undecim> poincare101: What card?
[17:33] <undecim> poincare101: "lspci" for internal, "lsusb" for usb to find the model
[17:33] <worthapp> KM0201, linphone seems to be what i was looking for,i am configuring it right now
[17:33] <step21> Sven12345, yes, update manager will tell you when new versionsa are available
[17:33] <poincare101> undecim: I just built a computer so, I can tell you exactly.

[17:34] <nagesh> trying do a fresh installation from usb, but hdd is not detected. can someone help me?
[17:34] <KM0201> poincare101: it is a internal card, right? or is it USB?
[17:34] <cdubya> i2v8an, any way to suppress that and the permissions output?
[17:35] <poincare101> KM0201: yeah, its internal. http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=531
[17:35] <step21> lol
[17:35] <KM0201> poincare101: if you're not going to listen, i'm not going to bother helping you.. I DON"T CARE WHAT THE MODEL IS... we need to know the chipset.. lspci ina terminal
[17:35] <i2v8an> what about just doing ls ?
[17:35] <ThomasBerends2> Hi, anybody here with experience with Wubi ?

[17:36] <vileger> hello. I need some help. I cannot copy any file to windows share with ubuntu 10.10
[17:36] <ThomasBerends2> I installed Ubuntu using the Wubi installer, but when I boot Ubuntu, I get a session like the live-cd, I even have an install button :S (I don't have the CD in my pc, so that isn't the problem)
[17:37] <poincare101> KM0201: what part of it? (sorry if you mentioned it alreadY0
[17:37] <KM0201> poincare101: the wireless device, look through the lspci output, and yous hould be able to identify which onje is your wireless card
[17:37] <i2v8an> vileger, what OS are you using for the share?
[17:37] <solidus-river> nvm got it
[17:37] <undecim> ThomasBerends2: Are your settings saved when you reboot?
[17:37] <trism> alan__: just need: sudo apt-get install conky-all; then read about configuring it in the conky docs http://conky.sourceforge.net/documentation.html
[17:37] <nagesh> trying do a fresh installation of  10.10 from usb, but hdd is not detected. can someone help me
[17:38] <jarocks> so anyone know any nice dropbox esque services i could run off my box?

[17:38] <vileger> hello. I need some help. I cannot copy any file to windows share with ubuntu 10.10. It says  "there was an error copying the file into smb://(etc). invalid argument."
[17:38] <tortoise7>    I see that folks are having way more important/serious issues than myself, however, I would appreciate some pointers or help with getting the KeyBoard Backlight operational on my toshiba satellite notebook...... ubuntu 10.0.4   AMD components, fresh install, no other os on the system...thoughts, suggestions, comments?
[17:39] <poincare101> KM0201: The closest thing I could find is the ethernet controller
[17:39] <poincare101> it doesn't seem to see the wireless...
[17:39] <KM0201> poincare101: and it's a PCI card you installed?
[17:39] <poincare101> KM0201: Yes.
[17:39] <jarocks> Has anyone here used sparkleshare?
[17:39] <KM0201> poincare101: is the machine online, w/o wireless?
[17:40] <poincare101> KM0201: no, but I can try to get it online.
[17:40] <Failican> anyone know a good and cheap wifi adapter for aircracking ect ;)
[17:40] <aeon-ltd> Failican: ask in #backtrack
[17:40] <KM0201> poincare101: han gon just a minute
[17:41] <vileger> hello. I need some help. I cannot copy any file to windows share with ubuntu 10.10. It says "there was an error copying the file into smb://(etc). invalid argument."... Please... I need help
[17:41] <i2v8an> vileger, have you tried doing a google search for 10.10 and the error message yet?
[17:42] <oddy> hey chaps, my sound is all jittery and stuttery, my system is going all slow since i installed 10.10. is this a known issue?
[17:42] <vileger> yeah, i couldn't find anything
[17:42] <poincare101> KM0201: yeah.
[17:43] <vileger> i just saw that someone have the same problem in other versions of ubuntu
[17:43] <KM0201> poincare101: you don't see anything in your lspci, about an "Atheros" card.. cuz google suggests it might have an atheros chipset(which means, intheory, it should work)
[17:44] <nagesh> trying do a fresh installation of  10.10 from usb, but hdd is not detected. can someone help me
[17:44] <i2v8an> vileger, yeah, I have had something similar before.  I don't remember actually doing anything about it, though
[17:44] <i2v8an> -- besides messing with the server side settings
[17:44] <poincare101> KM0201: I'll check again
[17:46] <vileger> i2v8an: I have another ubuntu installation with 10.04 version and works fine
[17:46] <poincare101> KM0201: Nope. no atheros anywhere. Am I missing a driver or something?
[17:47] <KM0201> poincare101: what verison of ubuntu are you using?.. i just saw a link that suggests that should work out of the box.
[17:47] <oddy> is anyone else having trouble with gstreamer making their computer MEGA SLOW on 10.10?
[17:47] <poincare101> KM0201: 10.10, live CD
[17:47] <i2v8an> vileger, most possibly a bug?
[17:48] <vileger> i supossed.
[17:48] <KM0201> poincare101: it looksl ike it's an atheros chipset, and should work "out of the box...   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDlink#PCI
[17:49] <KM0201> poincare101: unless you've got some weird version that hasn't been reported yet
[17:49] <poincare101> KM0201: any ideas?
[17:49] <KM0201> poincare101: well, you can try NDISwrapper i guess..
[17:49] <poincare101> KM0201: I'll try restarting it.
[17:49] <vileger> I'll keep looking on google...
[17:49] <KM0201> not sure how effective that will be on a live cd
[17:49] <vileger> thanks anyway
[17:49] <KM0201> poincare101: ok
[17:49] <sam_sam> my /sbin has permissions such that nonroot users can execute/modify its contents.Is it normal /default? it contains "init" so if i change its permissions such that non root can not execute them will my system be inaccessible? ( i guess ubuntu doesnt have any root level accounts )
[17:50] <i2v8an> vileger, and here it is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-application/+bug/659854... not that a bug report is helpful. lol
[17:50] <burg> hello. what is the difference between ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso and ubuntu-10.10-alternate-i386.iso ?
[17:50] <oddy> burg: unless you are a company, you want the "desktop" one
[17:50] <oddy> burg: the alternate one is for OEMS and for people doing custom installs, 99 times out of 100 you'll want the desktop.
[17:51] <peepingtom> burg: Alternate is a text-mode installer, desktop is much easier
[17:51] <oddy> burg: and what peepingtom said :)
[17:51] <vileger> burg, thanks.
[17:51] <sam_sam> my /sbin has permissions such that nonroot users can execute/modify its contents.Is it normal /default? it contains "init" so if i change its permissions such that non root can not execute them will my system be inaccessible? ( i guess ubuntu doesnt have any root level accounts
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> depends on what you like, I find both ways equally simple
[17:52] <KM0201> peepingtom: not really... Alternate is just as easy... maybe the desktop is less intimidating.. but they both do the same thing, it's how they look while doing it.
[17:52] <i2v8an> no one has mention that the alternate installer can install in machines with low ram, yet
[17:52] <dan2> hey guys
[17:52] <dan2> somehow my "sound/volume control" on my system/taskbar disappeared
[17:52] <dan2> I can't figure out how to add it back
[17:52] <dan2> but several reboots later it's still not there
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> !panelfix | dan2
[17:52] <trism> dan2: right click the panel, add the indicator applet
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> !fixpanel
[17:53] <dan2> ActionParsnip, already did that
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> dan2: cool
[17:53] <dan2> there's no indicator applet for the volume control that I can find
[17:53] <trism> dan2: if that doesn't work, make sure indicator-sound is installed
[17:53] <msl> sam_sam, You mean that your permissions are opened to the point that users can write to the /sbin directory or replace executables?
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> dan2: if you check in the startup items you can add the startup item there
[17:53] <msl> That wouldn't be right...
[17:53] <dan2> ActionParsnip, what does that mean?
[17:53] <poincare101> KM0201: still not working :C
[17:53] <trism> dan2: indicator applet is the name of the applet (there is no separate volume control applet anymore)
[17:54] <msl> Usually a user can read/execute from /sbin though, but on some distros it isn't in the PATH.
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> dan2: edit the startup ites, you can re-enable the item there
[17:54] <poincare101> KM0201: the LED at the back of the card is blinking though
[17:54] <sam_sam> msl:yes, i came to know about it just now as i ran rkhunter
[17:54] <BLZbubba_> in /etc/network/interfaces, is there a way to put a crypted password in the wpa-password line?
[17:54] <BLZbubba_> i really don't want my password in plain text
[17:54] <KM0201> poincare101: can you receive PMs on that client.
[17:54] <alan__> How do i make a folder on the dropdown at the top aka Places?
[17:54] <KM0201> or can you PM me?
[17:55] <sandking> hi
[17:55] <aeon-ltd> hi
[17:55] <sandking> anyone can suggest fan/heat mintoring app?
[17:55] <dan2> trism, I'm not sure how to take indicator applet and convert it to a sound applet
[17:55] <sam_sam> msl:don't think it's safe as i guess /sbin contains  executables that are supposed to be run by root
[17:55] <sam_sam> i dont *
[17:56] <dan2> trism, it just shows me a email message icon and it wants me to setup email accounts and crap like that
[17:56] <sandking> since i installed 10.10 i feel that my netbook runs a little noisier with fans
[17:56] <trism> dan2: you don't convert it to anything, it is part of it, as long as you have indicator-sound installed
[17:56] <peepingtom_> sandking: are you using ubuntu desktop or ubuntu netbook edition?
[17:56] <poincare101> KM0201: I think, yes.
[17:56] <dan2> trism, indicator sound is installed
[17:56] <dan2> trism, so why am I not seeing it?
[17:56] <msl> alan__, If you open Nautilus you can link things on the left hand side
[17:56] <peepingtom_> sandking: UNE uses Unity desktop, which uses Mutter. It has higher GPU requirements
[17:56] <trism> dan2: then run: killall gnome-panel;
[17:56] <sandking> peepingtom_, desktop as there's no 64 bit of netbook
[17:56] <trism> dan2: it should restart and you should see it
[17:57] <cdubya> dan2, I know you said you rebooted several times.....have you tried to do killall gnome-panel to see if it comes up? Even if it doesn't immediately show up on my panel, it does after that
[17:57] <dan2> trism, didn't work
[17:57] <cdubya> oops, trism beat me to it....
[17:57] <dan2> cdubya, didn't work
[17:57] <sam_sam> msl: is that safe ?
[17:57] <alan__> msl: Where is Nautilus located?
[17:57] <i2v8an> sandking, what about pae kernel in notebook version?
[17:57] <Kartagis> how can I extract multi volume .zip files?
[17:57] <testi_> How can I disable 3rd-mouse-button emulation?
[17:57] <trism> dan2: out of curiosity, try running: gnome-volume-control-applet; and see if it appears and works in the notification area
[17:57] <KM0201> alan__: what do you mean, where is it located.. you mean how do you open it?
[17:58] <dan2> trism, that works
[17:58] <sandking> i2v8an, sorry, i'm not geeky enough to understand that :]
[17:58] <fixxxermet> I installed Ubuntu from the alternate CD.  How can I remove all ubuntu / gnome GUI stuff and be left with only the console?
[17:58] <skfin> fixxxermet: You should install ubuntu server edition if you want non-gui installion
[17:58] <trism> dan2: so sound is fine, odd that the volume icon isn't showing up
[17:58] <alan__> KM0201: Like where is it so i can add a folder to there?
[17:58] <msl> sam_sam, I would say that it isn't safe if binaries can be replaced.  But it is normal to be able to execute from /sbin
[17:58] <dan2> trism, so how do I get that item to show up all the time?
[17:58] <sandking> in system monitor i don't see anything using my cpu, but the fans keep rolling :/
[17:59] <KM0201> alan__: just go to places/home  that's nautilus... Nautilus is simply a file browser
[17:59] <msl> alan__, The file browser.  If you open your Home directory, for example.
[17:59] <trism> dan2: if you want to use gnome-volume-control-applet instead, you add it to System/Preferences/Startup Applications, this was the default in karmic and still works
[17:59] <i2v8an> sandking, pae: physical address extension: almost as good as 64bit 4gb < ram support.  netbook installer installed it by default on my machine
