[13:58] <dumbus> my problem nouveau refusing to accept xorg.conf and nvidia is not saying anything just hangs on boot, i can't what error messages because X is no longer exists
[13:58] <surya> sacarlson, ok yaa  i am leaving tomorro we will meet u?
[13:58] <bc81> RickJames: the setting is in System >> Preferences >> Power Management, stored in gconf-editor: /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac/  if you want to change it, simply replace "nothing" in the command i gave you with either, "suspend", "hibernate", or "blank"
[13:58] <surya> bye good night?
[13:59] <dumbus> i can't see any messages when going with nvidia
[13:59] <RickJames> bc81, i realize my question was a n00nb one, but when i was looking there to begin with all i found was suspend and hibernate and shut down.
[14:00] <dumbus> also tried nvidia installer from source nvidia-current it fails too
[14:01] <bc81> RickJames: the ubuntu higher-ups think we're too dumb to have direct access to certain features, so they hide them from us.
[14:01] <blinki> if I installed using "encypt home folder", can I easily change that to just a "private" folder instead?
[14:02] <mrexen> long range zip ftw!
[14:02] <mrexen> nevermind xz I found long range zip :)))
[14:03] <dumbus> help please
[14:03] <jacekowski> is it just me or it's impossible to do clean upgrade on ubuntu
[14:03] <dumbus> jacekowski: it's always was and will be like that
[14:03] <jacekowski> every time i change to never release i have to spend like a day messing around with removing packages by hand and using --force with dpkg and play with other stuff to make it work
[14:04] <dumbus> jacekowski: they don't encorage users to upgrade to rc if you did you on your own
[14:05] <DaGeek247> what do you need help with dumbus?
[14:05] <jacekowski> well, i'm not upgrading to rc
[14:05] <dumbus> DaGeek247: well i messed nvidia driver
[14:05] <jacekowski> i'm upgrading to latest stable
[14:05] <jacekowski> 10.10
[14:06] <DaGeek247> dumbus,oh. i cant help with that.:/
[14:06] <Pici> jacekowski: how are you upgrading?
[14:06] <jacekowski> apt-get dist-upgrade
[14:06] <erUSUL> :)
[14:06] <gpc> !upgrade | jacekowski
[14:06] <gpc> you are doing it not exactly the right way
[14:07] <jacekowski> well, it works on debian
[14:07] <Pici> jacekowski: If you're doing that in combination with changing your sources.list to the new codename, then you're doing it wrong.
[14:07] <blinki> if I installed using "encypt home folder", can I easily change that to just a "private" folder instead?
[14:07] <dumbus> DaGeek247: what graphics are you using?
[14:07] <xyclo_> Hi all.

[14:07] <Zeu5> video/x-gst-fourcc-WMV3 decoder
[14:08] <erUSUL> !codecs | Zeu5
[14:08] <Zeu5> The playback of this movie requires a video/x-gst-fourcc-WMV3 decoder plugin which is not installed.
[14:08] <xyclo_> Every time I boot or restart I get:
[14:08] <xyclo_> Gave up waiting for root devide.  Common problems:
[14:08] <xyclo_>  - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
[14:08] <xyclo_>  - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
[14:08] <FloodBot3> xyclo_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:08] <xyclo_>  -Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)

[14:09] <Zeu5> thanks gpc, now trying
[14:09] <erUSUL> xyclo_: well there you have a bullet list to check eith the most likely couses of the error. check them one by one
[14:09] <DaGeek247> dumbus, nvidia, but the only problems that happenned where a failed update. switched it to ubuntu drivers, and not nvidia.
[14:09] <erUSUL> the most*
[14:09] <xyclo_> I realized, but don't know where
[14:09] <xyclo_> rootdelay is
[14:10] <xyclo_> (cat /proc/cmdline)?
[14:10] <PhoenixSTF> Hi guys, is there any channel for help in wine?
[14:10] <xyclo_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/564985/
[14:10] <dumbus> DaGeek247: do you X or Xorg installed?
[14:11] <dumbus> DaGeek247: do you have them
[14:12] <DaGeek247> dumbus, not sure. i never had problems,and didnt learn bout them. i think its x server.
[14:12] <erUSUL> PhoenixSTF: #winehq
[14:12] <DaGeek247> someone took over #wine :p
[14:13] <dumbus> DaGeek247: yes xserver so you have it along with ubuntu restricted drivers right?
[14:13] <DaGeek247> dumbus i think so.
[14:13] <erUSUL> DaGeek247: the web domain is also winehq
[14:14] <DaGeek247> oh, lol.
[14:14] <adac>  hi, I'm using ubuntu this is my php apache conf file (/etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf) see: http://pastie.org/1544525 Now when I try to access phpmyadmin then it FIRST asks the credentials and only AFTERWARDS it redirects to https. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?
[14:14] <dumbus> DaGeek247: ah
[14:15] <NET||abuse> hey there folks, so i'm working away, listening to music running on one machine, streaming with pulse to my little laptop (headphone jack issues) and suddenly it goes all fuzzy and distorted
[14:15] <DaGeek247> dumbus whats that mean?
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> NET||abuse: how are you streaming  it?
[14:15] <bc81> NET||abuse: i just had the SAME EXACT problem about 30 minutes ago
[14:15] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip, using audio server configuration with pulse audio device chooser for networked audio
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> bc81: did you get a fix?
[14:16] <bc81> ActionParsnip: well, all i did was stop the music, close rhythmbox, reopen rhythmbox and it was ok.
[14:16] <Zeu5> gpc, i just installed ubuntu-restricted -extras. i still cannot play a mov file
[14:16] <dumbus> DaGeek247: frustration from your anwers
[14:17] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip, restarting rhythmbox got the audio back fro that, but the web player was still fuzzy, just both sources, flash in chromium playback from grooveshark.com and rhythmbox both went fuzzy at the same moment.
[14:17] <blinki> f it, I'll just reinstall with gentoo
[14:17] <NET||abuse> restarting browser got it working again too..
[14:17] <NET||abuse> weird..
[14:17] <DaGeek247> dumbus ok. how wuld these questions help you?
[14:17] <bc81> NET||abuse: thats a little creepy to me that we had the same problem..how longago did this happen to you?
[14:18] <[Sou|Raven]> is it normal to have on logs from racoon DEBUG: compression algorithm can not be checked because sadb message doesn't support it.
[14:18] <bc81> because i thought it was just my laptop acting up, so i was slapping it around lol
[14:18] <dumbus> DaGeek247: well not much with such answers
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> NET||abuse: strange, if sound is bad from many apps then i doubt it's the one app but the sound system or somesuch
[14:18] <arbaz> How to add new python modules like tweepy to nokia N-73?
[14:18] <erUSUL> !find tweepy
[14:18] <arbaz> How to add new python modules like tweepy to nokia N-73?
[14:19] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip, yeh, that's what supprised me, one app sure, can understand, but all currently operating sound sources, just go at once.. weird.
[14:19] <Pici> arbaz: What does this have to do with Ubuntu?
[14:19] <DaGeek247> dumbus what were you hoping for?
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> arbaz: is the N73 running ubuntu?
[14:19] <NET||abuse> bc81, just happened last 5 minutes
[14:19] <dumbus> DaGeek247: for help ofcourse
[14:19] <arbaz> no it just is able to run python scripts
[14:20] <bc81> NET||abuse: can i pm you?
[14:20] <DaGeek247> oh
[14:20] <NET||abuse> bc81, source machine running 10.04, pulse server is my eeePc 1000h running 10.10 netbook edition
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> arbaz: then how is this related to Ubuntu, like pici says?
[14:20] <NET||abuse> bc81, sure.
[14:20] <mrexen> this might be a little of a stupid question, but I don't seem to be able to get a folder to be able to be shared via a virtualbox from windows to ubuntu..any ideas on what needs to be done?
[14:20] <Pici> arbaz: Well this channel is only for Ubuntu support.  If this is running linux, then ##linux would be more on-topic.
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> arbaz: this is Ubuntu support only
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> arbaz: try #python too (maybe)
[14:20] <arbaz> thanks
[14:21] <PhoenixSTF> erUSUL, thanks m8
[14:21] <DaGeek247> mrexen #vbox shuld be able to help you.
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: is windows the host or guest?
[14:22] <mrexen> windows is host
[14:22] <mrexen> windows 7
[14:23] <mrexen> running virtual box 3
[14:23] <mrexen> latest version of the 3
[14:23] <dumbus> im running pure ubuntu, and messed up help
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: if you share the folders in the guest config, it shows the mount command you need in Ubuntu
[14:24] <xyclo_> thanks erUSUL, I just needed a little push to do it myself...
[14:24] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, my webpages seem rather slow to load and I have the dns set to the google dns IP, does this setting ahve to be duped in /etc/resolv.conf or is the dns router setting sufficient?
[14:24] <xyclo_> it's done now
[14:24] <mrexen> you mean in the host config ActionParsnip?
[14:24]  * mrexen confused
[14:24] <erUSUL> xyclo_: ? did you find out what was wrong ?
[14:25] <erUSUL> xyclo_: wrong uuid? or you needed rootdelay ?
[14:25] <mrexen> oh, so tick the guest tickbox?
[14:25] <xyclo_> rootdelay fixed it
[14:25] <erUSUL> xyclo_: ok; special setup? raid card or something?
[14:26] <xyclo_> not really... i wonder.
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: when you setup the folders to be shared with the guest it shows the command structure. If you bridge the virtual network card so it shows on you LAN you can access shared folders in Windows like an extra computer on the LAN.
[14:27] <mrexen> yeah, they're not showing up on network folder in windows explorer
[14:27] <erUSUL> xyclo_: very slow disk? check smart status System>Admin...>disk utility
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: if you set the DNS IP in network manager, it will create resolv.conf for you
[14:27] <mrexen> just the original windows computer's name is showing up in network folder ActionParsnip
[14:27] <xyclo_> says healthy
[14:28] <xyclo_> where can I see speed?
[14:28] <xyclo_> 5400rpm... no
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: if you install and configure dnsmasq, you can have a local DNS cache on the PC and not have to use the web for EVERY resolution
[14:28] <erUSUL> xyclo_: in a laptop yes
[14:28] <xyclo_> yes what?
[14:28] <xyclo_> I chose the 5400 for quietness...
[14:29] <xyclo_> so a 7200 would not give the error?
[14:29] <erUSUL> xyclo_: laptops use still 5400rpm desktop are usually 7200
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: do you share folders on the host system in the normal windows share way?
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> ive seen 'green' desktop hd's that are 5400.
[14:29] <mrexen> ActionParsnip: nope
[14:29] <erUSUL> xyclo_: really dunno; you can test both speeds without the rootdealy option and find out
[14:29] <mrexen> ActionParsnip: does this mean I need to reboot my windows system?
[14:29] <xyclo_> yep
[14:30] <xyclo_> well, thanks again
[14:30] <xyclo_> I
[14:30] <xyclo_> I'm off now
[14:30] <erUSUL> xyclo_: no problem
[14:31] <Zeu5> hi guys, i am still unable to play my mov file after installing ubuntu-restricted-extras package. please advise.
[14:31] <mrexen> ActionParsnip: nevermind, I just had to wait a couple of minutes of constant refreshing for it to show up
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: cool
[14:31] <AbhijiT> Zeu5, whats the file extenion?
[14:31] <mrexen> must've been the virtualbox using a lot of processor/bandwidth
[14:32] <mrexen> err memory
[14:32] <Zeu5> AbhijiT, mov
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> mrexen: yeah it does chew the cpu
[14:32] <AbhijiT> Zeu5, try opening with vlc
[14:32] <Zeu5> No suitable decoder module:
[14:32] <Zeu5> VLC does not support the audio or video format "WMV3". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: you may need to install the w32codecs from medibuntu repo
[14:32] <Roasted> Has anybody ever set up a radius server on ubuntu? Curious how you implemented LDAP support with it...
[14:32] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip, i already did
[14:33] <Dr_Willis> Zeu5:  theres some speciual codecs that only ms can do

[14:34] <shyamupa> How to convert module packages to .sis in ubuntu
[14:34] <AbhijiT> Zeu5, then convert that format to some another vlc running format
[14:34] <Zeu5> AbhijiT, how to convert?
[14:34] <Dr_Willis> Zeu5:  mplayer +w32codecs might do it.. or try converting with ffmpeg or mencoder
[14:34] <erUSUL> shyamupa: what is a module package and what is a *.sis ?
[14:35] <mrexen> ActionParsnip: now I double click the ubuntu's computer name in windows explorer --> network and it says the computer doesn't exist?
[14:35] <Zeu5> Dr_Willis, mplayer is movie player yes?
[14:35] <shyamupa> modules here are python modules
[14:35] <AbhijiT> Zeu5, use soem arista transcoder or mobile media convertor
[14:35] <shyamupa> and .sis is a mobile app installer
[14:35] <Zeu5> AbhijiT, can you give me just 1 choice?
[14:35] <erUSUL> Zeu5: winff
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> Zeu5:  yes.
[14:35] <AbhijiT> Zeu5, mobile media convertor
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> winff = front end to ffmpeg. very handy tool

[14:36] <Dr_Willis> lastent:  dos text files have  a end of line, and carrage return..  thats what you are seeing

[14:38] <serialized> hi all, im trying to underclock my laptop gpu to try and see if it becomes more stable.  im using nvclock_gtk but it doesnt seem to want to underclock the gpu and memory.  can some one help or point me in the right direction?
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> Zeu5:  you missed one of the steps on the medibuntu install/setup guide.
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> serialized:  i doubt if that will make it more stable.
[14:38] <erUSUL> Zeu5: if you already have medibuntu use winff or ffmpeg directly to trascode the file
[14:38] <serialized> whys that?
[14:38] <Zeu5> Dr_Willis, which step i missed?
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> serialized:  unless the thing is overheating.. any stability issues are proiberly due to driver bugs.
[14:39] <erUSUL> Zeu5: 15:38 < erUSUL> Zeu5: install the medibuntu keyring <<< this one
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> Zeu5:   where you add  the key.. :)
[14:39] <serialized> its not overheating.  i wish it was or a memory problem. would be easier to fix.
[14:39] <Zeu5> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu i copied and pasted this in my terminal
[14:39] <erUSUL> Zeu5: sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring
[14:40] <serialized> im using dellfand to control my fan speeds and temperature
[14:40] <|f|> anyone?
[14:40] <erUSUL> |f|: is apache2-common what you need to reinstall afaik
[14:41] <|f|> ty
[14:41] <Zeu5> thanks erUSUL
[14:41] <Zeu5> now it worked.
[14:41] <erUSUL> |f|: you should not go around removing conf files like thatr
[14:41] <Zeu5> i mean the medibuntu keyring. now installing mobile media convertor as suggested by AbhijiT
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> |f|: without backups first
[14:42] <serialized> with a nvidia gpu can i set the performance level?
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> serialized: you can add the coolbits option in xorg.conf and get the over/underclocking
[14:43] <erUSUL> serialized: i would ask here http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s&forumid=14
[14:43] <serialized> way ahead of you for that one

[14:45] <AbhijiT> hi
[14:45] <MagicJ> I have downloaded the alternate CD since I have an old machine I need to install on.  I burned the CD and when I test, it fails.  How do I check that the iso that I collected is good and then whether that got to the CD crrectly.  I beliee that there i a way to get a checksum, just don't remember what it is
[14:45] <AbhijiT> on this page sould i donwload 32 bit and then install using force all or i should download source? http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | MagicJ
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> MagicJ: it'd have been smarter to test the ISO first. a bad ISO will make a bad CD
[14:46] <pn3um0> hi
[14:47] <AbhijiT> or is there any minitue ppa?
[14:47] <MagicJ> I agree Actionparsnip - never had one bad before and it is no big deal to re-burn - but that's why I want to do the checksum
[14:48] <Zeu5> the progress bar is not moving at all in the mbile media convertor. how long shd i wait before i decide that it is not working?

[14:50] <dakira> Hi. Is there a way to change the "Magic SysRq"-key? I'm using an apple-keyboard at work which doesn't have the "Print/SysRq"-key.
[14:51] <serialized> i removed coolbits from xorg and used nvclock and its working now
[14:53] <AbhijiT> RishavT, have you used this latest minitube?

[15:07] <MrMintanet01> I find it hard to believe that no one here knows how to make their monitors function at custom resolutions...
[15:07] <MrMintanet01> I hate being ignorant.  :)
[15:07] <Fuchs> MrMintanet01: what kind of GPU is in that macbook?
[15:07] <Fuchs> if nvidia: try disper. If it still doesn't work: provide a nvidia bug report. If not nvidia: ask someone else.
[15:07] <MrMintanet01> Fuchs, how can I find out?
[15:08] <MrMintanet01> lspci?
[15:08] <Fuchs> MrMintanet01: lspci | grep VGA
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet01: use an xorg.conf file and you can
[15:08] <MrMintanet01> ATI Technologies Inc M9+ 5C63 [Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)] (rev 01)
[15:08] <Fuchs> in that case I am out.
[15:09] <MrMintanet01> ActionParsnip, I have tried editing the xorg.conf file, but I nearly wound up lost in the woods with all monitors shutting off.  :)  Luckily, I was able to re-edit it.  Can you help me with editing the xorg.conf?
[15:09] <MrMintanet01> What is the site you use for terminal clip links?  I will post what I have in my xorg
[15:11] <brianBTB> I need help with a USB hard drive. I had it formatted as WBFS, for my wii.
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet01: its a VERY complex file, if you hunt for examples you can use them or sections to try. Its very much a trial and error thing. If you use an nvidia video chip, you can generate anxorg.conf
[15:11] <MrMintanet01> I use ATI
[15:11] <brianBTB> Then i tried to format to FAT in windows, but it failed
[15:11] <Landstalker> hi guys, can anyone see whats going wrong here. I've got a list of names of files in a file, so I was doing this: cat /backup/FoundTimeSheets/JobLists/38123 | while read FILENAME; do find /timesheets -iname $FILENAME* | xargs -I% cp "%" /backup/FoundTimeSheets/38123/09-02-2011/$FILENAME; done
[15:12] <Landstalker> but it doesn't appear to be working. I think its the way its reading in the file thats the problem as I just did find /timesheets -iname JOB123456 and it found and move the files called JOB123456

[15:13] <Zeu5> its all useless. i cannot believe that i cannot run this play or convert the file in ubuntu.
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: if you use more open codecs you'll have fewer issues
[15:14] <bc81> Zeu5: what device are you encoding for?
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: have you tried gnome-mplayer
[15:15] <praisy> hi
[15:15] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip, i did not produce the video file. telling me that does not solve my problem. i am just a normal consumer not a producer

[15:16] <ActionParsnip> !codec
[15:17] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip, tried that
[15:18] <Zeu5> And mplayer did not work as well. i dun even get an error message

Now I want to do the opposite and rsync some files UP to the web host and using the same keys doesn't work. DO I need to generate the opposite set of keys for rsyncing the other way?
[15:23] <JenniferB2> Hi folks.. I am trying to ssh to a server and have the username and password already filled in as part of the url... what is the syntax and command ? >> ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>... I thought that was it.. but I am being logged in as user jen:mypassword and asked for a password
[15:23] <sss> #java
[15:24] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip, thanks for help, but didnt work.
[15:24] <Zeu5> i am going to login to windows to see if i can convert it from there. *shakes head
[15:24] <BluesKaj> JenniferB2, it depends on what you want to do , if you need to access files only mwithout a gui , then: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>should work
[15:25] <spiep> s

[15:31] <oxodesign> hi, how do I give write (allow upload) to a folder for apache user?
[15:32] <NightNine> great! I'm trying to fix a problem on an inaccessible Ubuntu install via livecd...any suggestions? After the splash screen it goes straight to black/blank screen and I don't hear the drumroll
[15:32] <cdbs> oxodesign: chmod a+rw FOLDER in a terminal
[15:32] <oxodesign> cdbs do I need to login with apache user?
[15:32] <cdbs> oxodesign: no, no need to
[15:33] <cdbs> oxodesign: but depending on the owner of the folder, you might have to prefix the command with sudo

[15:34] <georgie_b> i'm getting E212 permission error when i launch gvim using keyboard shortcut but it works fine if i do so from menu

[15:35] <joris__> hi, i'm on an internal network and want to access my pc from outside the network, I got another external pc I can use to tunnel(?) how should I do this?
[15:36] <joris__> i should forward the requests from the external pc to my pc on the internal network
[15:36] <compdoc> either remote control a desktop, or vpn
[15:36] <duRiel> hi, how do i find out my microphones device name?
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> joris__: you will need to port forward in your router. If you are wanting to VNC then use an SSH tunnel
[15:37] <skrite> hey all, cannot seem to get ubuntu to 'see' my esata drive.
[15:37] <nona> how can i reinstall a package with theirs configuration files?
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> skrite: when you attach the device, wait 10 seconds then run:  dmesg | tail    does the kernel show a reaction to the device
[15:38] <compdoc> skrite, if you use the command fdisk -l, it doesnt show up?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> nona: sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename
[15:38] <georgie_b> skrite you can go to system>administration>disk utility and there u should be able to mount it properly
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> compdoc: fdisk needs sudo to work
[15:38] <PL-1> if I have XP then Windows 7 and put Ubuntu on same disk (empty partition) will it ruin XP or 7 ?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> compdoc: fdisk -l   without sudo outputs nothing
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> PL-1: not at all
[15:39] <PL-1> great- going to make the move to ubuntu today.
[15:39] <joris__> ActionParsnip; will that also allow me to access services that are on (my) pc? i don't want to acces my desktop, i want to access a service from my pc outside of the internal network (eg. a webserver)
[15:39] <joris__> i think vnc is to access the desktop?
[15:39] <compdoc> yes
[15:39] <BluesKaj> PL-1, no , ubuntu will side by side with your other OSs
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> joris__: sure you just forward the port on the router to the port on the serving pc
[15:39] <nona> ActionParsnip, thanls
[15:39] <skrite> ActionParsnip, dmesg | tail isn't showing anything. neither when i tail /var/log/messages
[15:39] <PL-1> do I need a physical disk to install ubunut ? or can I load it up from win with Daemon tools  ?  I am thinking I need to burn a disk
[15:39] <nona> ActionParsnip, thanks
[15:39] <georgie_b> PL-1:you cant have ubuntu nd windows on same m/c because ubuntu's root is in ext3 format s
[15:40] <PL-1> georgie - oh ? what's this ?
[15:40] <PL-1> same drive you mean ?
[15:40] <nona> ActionParsnip, how can i remove a package with theirs configuration files?
[15:40] <skrite> compdoc, when i run fdisk -l i get cannot seek on /dev/sde  ( i think that is because i am using a RAM PCI card as a hard drive )
[15:40] <georgie_b> well in the same drive they both have to be in different partitions
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> PL-1: you can install it that way, which will use wubi and not be in the empty partition. you will need to boot a CD or USB stick. I also suggest you unpartition the space you want to install to so it is clear where the install will go
[15:40] <th_> hello. is it possible to make a bash script to connect and login to ssh server?
[15:40] <PL-1> georgie- you mean you can't do triple boot ? XP/7/Ubuntu ?
[15:41] <BluesKaj> PL-1, make sure create a a small swap file too a bit larger than then your ram
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> nona: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename
[15:41] <NightNine> PL-1: you can also use unetbootin to create a bootable usb drive
[15:41] <PL-1> ok.
[15:41] <nona> ActionParsnip, thanks
[15:41] <joris__> ActionParsnip ok thanks, i'm going to try something like that:)
[15:41] <georgie_b> you can as long as they are put into their respective partions
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> PL-1: remember you can only have 4 primary partitions on a drive, so you may need to make an extended partition and then make logical partitions therin
[15:41] <compdoc> skrite, in the bios, is esata enabled? does your motherboard have an esata port, or does it just have a connector that goes to a sata port?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> joris__: if you set the server to a static IP it will mean the DHCP lease expiration will not sever the link
[15:42] <georgie_b> Action Parsnip is right ,keep in mind not to make more than 3 partions nd try installin the ubuntu in primary
[15:42] <thrope> is there an interface for setting up samba shares on 10.10?
[15:42] <skrite> compdoc, well, i have not checked in the bios, but the esata port is on the motherboard.
[15:43] <skrite> compdoc, let me reboot and check bios, back in a bit.
[15:43] <compdoc> skrite, well, connect the drive and see if the bios sees the drive
[15:44] <skrite> compdoc, the bios should see it before boot?
[15:44] <compdoc> I would think so
[15:44] <skrite> ok, will check now
[15:44] <georgie_b> well nebody knows y, i'm getting E212 permission error when i launch gvim using keyboard shortcut but it works fine if i do so from menu
[15:44] <BluesKaj> thrope, open nautilus / network
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> georgie_b: apparently not, or they would have replied
[15:44] <joris__> ActionParsnip: the server has idd a static ip, i'm not familiar with ssh-port forwarding, but i'm now reading the ubuntu documentation about it, let's hope i get it working:)
[15:45] <th_> hello. is it possible to make a bash script to connect and login to ssh server?
[15:45] <duRiel> how do i find out my microphones device name?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> joris__: default is port 22 TCP, you will need to read your router manual as the config varies wildly from model to model
[15:45] <skorv> in the old dos to inscer special chars you would do alt + (0-254)...
[15:45] <skorv> how do u do the same in ubuntu (if possible)
[15:46] <skorv> *insert
[15:46] <petanilinux> !ping
[15:46] <skorv> !ping
[15:47] <MC8> Is there a way to sort files asciibetically? i.e. A-Z before a-z?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> skorv: should be the same
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> MC8: use sort
[15:47] <skorv> ty
[15:47] <erUSUL> MC8: LC_COLLATE=C ls ?
[15:48] <NightNine> duRiel: have you tried using hwinfo?
[15:48]  * MC8 meant in whatever Ubuntu's version of Windows Explorer is
[15:48] <thrope> BluesKaj: no I want to set up a server (share a directory on the ubuntu machine)
[15:48] <Geko> hey guys, i have a question. i have a windows application that i want to startup everytime i start ubuntu how can i do that?
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> to sort files in a folder:  ls | sort    or to rverse:  ls | sort -r
[15:49] <MC8> mkay
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> Geko: add the command in your startup items under preferences
[15:49] <Geko> can you take me throught the steps iam really a noob at this
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> Geko: system -> prefs -> startup item
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> Geko: click "add new item" then the rest you will know
[15:50] <tishammer> hello
[15:50] <Geko> kk thanks a bunch
[15:51] <tishammer> i'm experiencing a very slow install. basically i run a process that is i/o intensive and the process does never go over 4% of cpu usage. I run the same application on my macbook with macos and the process goes much faster and cpu usage of about 60%
[15:51] <tishammer> any idea?
[15:52] <BluesKaj> thrope, on a mac ? , if so make sure the ubuntu pc has smb-server and client installed
[15:52] <skrite> ActionParsnip, compdoc, hey gents, reboot showed bios discovered drive on boot, formatting it to ext4 now, thanks for the help
[15:53] <sa-mp> ola necesito ayuda
[15:53] <sa-mp> con el visor de escritorio remoto
[15:53] <compdoc> skrite, so it doesnt see it if you attach the drive whenthe system is running?
[15:53] <skrite> compdoc, apparently not.
[15:53] <skrite> i didn't appear, i mean :)
[15:54] <halpbatman> does anyone know how to hide unity launcher on netbook remix?
[15:54] <JLS> necesito ayuda con el vinagre (visor de escritorio remoto)
[15:54] <Geko> One more question, If i wanted to install ubuntu completly over my windows install would i ever beable to revert back to windows and if i could would i need to take an extra steps or would i just beable to reinstall windows like i normally do when i format my hardrive
[15:54] <compdoc> its not a hot plug port then
[15:54] <Pici> !es | JLS
[15:54] <NightNine> Geko, if you reformat you will lose windows permanently
[15:54] <skrite> compdoc, right, but it doesn't matter for my purpose here, it is used to archive database dumps.
[15:54] <Geko> yea i know
[15:55] <NightNine> if you want to keep windows you'll have to create a new partition
[15:55] <Geko> but if i want to lose linux permanently  would i beable to just format the partition with the windows cd and install windows or i would have to take extra steps
[15:55] <blip-> hi. are any mirrors still online for 8.10 ?   I've got 11 machines that have 8.10 and need to install a particular program on them from the repos
[15:55] <blip-> tried several mirrors
[15:56] <NightNine> Geko, are you talking about completely formatting the drive both times?
[15:57] <tucemiux> anyone knows of a PDF editor for ubuntu?  I want to fill out a Form that's in PDF
[15:57] <Geko> yes
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> blip-: no, intrepid is dead and gone, it dies on 30th April last year
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> !info pdfedit | tucemiux
[15:58] <NightNine> if you completely reformat the drive it is as clean (partically speaking) as when you bought it
[15:58] <tzaeru> mh, where/how can I change the automatic idle logout time? logs out at about.. 15 minutes, but that stops the GUI for automatic computer shutdown from working I think.
[15:58] <NightNine> you can do any kind of installation you want
[15:58] <petanilnux> !ping
[15:59] <Geko> i know that but if i had linux on the drive and i want to make to make that hardrive completly windows would i beable to format the drive with the windows cd or would i have to take extra steps since the file formate is ext 4 and not ntfs
[15:59] <blip-> why does packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty not open ??
[15:59] <erUSUL> !eol | blip-
[15:59] <erUSUL> !jaunty
[15:59] <blip-> oh wait not jaunty
[16:00] <blip-> i just need ipython package for 8.10
[16:00] <NightNine> the windows disk will complely reformat for you, you shouldn't need any extra steps
[16:00] <erUSUL> blip-: see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[16:02] <Geko> ok great thanks alot night
[16:02] <Geko> that was really my main concern
[16:02] <Geko> since iam thinking of going full linux
[16:02] <gp5st> is there a fix for this yet (http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1191262)
[16:02] <Geko> instead of  staying in this wubi mode
[16:03] <BluesKaj> blip-, if you don't upgrade your machines as suggested you'll be left behind in the dust and won't be able install anything required on them
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> blip-: intrepid isn't supported in anyway you can think of, sorry
[16:03] <tucemiux> ActionParsnip, how do I edit the pdf though?  Have you ever used pdfedit?  I cant input text into the text field
[16:04] <blip-> BluesKaj, ActionParsnip: basically we had 8.10/Intrepid on a large number of work machines that haven't been used for long.   Is there a way to upgrade them all online so that I don't have to manually fresh install on each machine ?
[16:04] <NightNine> Geko: Yes, I've gone back and forth from windows -> dual boot -> linux -> windows without any problems, both linux and windows disks can format everything the way they need to be formatted
[16:04] <Geko> excellent thanks for your help
[16:04] <NightNine> sure
[16:05] <blip-> ah I found the upgrade info in the page. thanks
[16:05] <BluesKaj> blip-, as posted previously this may help you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[16:05] <blip-> yes thanks BluesKaj
[16:05] <NightNine> Is it possible to make changes on an existing ubuntu install using a livecd?
[16:06] <BluesKaj> good luck blip-
[16:06] <BluesKaj> NightNine, , what kind of changes ?
[16:07] <NightNine> I messed up the video drivers on my current install and can't boot into it at all, therefore I need to fix the drivers somehow...
[16:07] <BluesKaj> NightNine, which graphics card?
[16:08] <gsedej> hi! I have 1GB ram. Browser takes 300MB and all other apps caa 200MB (sumed in system monitor). System monitor says I use 90% of RAM and I have already 200MB on swap. Computer is slow when I start new things (eg new tab). I don't copy or any other activity. Where is my RAM?
[16:08] <NightNine> ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650
[16:08] <BluesKaj> NightNine, can you boot to a tty prompt?
[16:09] <needhelp1> how can i find a drive plugged into my usb port that isnt auto mounting
[16:09] <NightNine> I can only boot to a livecd, the normal boot goes to the splash screen but then goes completely black/blank and I can't hear the drumroll if I have speakers on
[16:09] <needhelp1> or isnt showing up on the desktop
[16:09] <needhelp1> i can find the drive in disk utility but cant access the drive
[16:10] <tucemiux> needhelp1, lsusb
[16:10] <RishavT> NightNine: try pressing "alt+f2" when you're in that blank screen. If a shell comes up (asking u to log in) then you can install drivers manually from there.
[16:10] <tucemiux> needhelp1, then: ls /media
[16:11] <jon8> Can anyone in here tell me the limitation with the amount of files that can be in a directory on EXT3
[16:11] <gp5st> i'm searching for the obvious searches on launchpad but not finding anything.  should i report it as a bug? (http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1191262)
[16:11] <RishavT> NightNine: you'll have to download the drivers before hand from AMD/ATI website.
[16:11] <AbhijiT> jon8, i dont think there is any such limit
[16:11] <NightNine> I should still have the install file on the drive...<checks>...
[16:12] <NightNine> yes, I have the .run file for the ATI proprietarty driver
[16:12] <RishavT> NightNine: sry, my bad. you have to press "ctrl+alt+f2" when in that blank screen.
[16:12] <AbhijiT> !in | RishavT just for your info
[16:12] <RishavT> AbhijiT: Oh :P Thanks. I'll check it out.
[16:13] <NightNine> ok, I've tried ctrl+alt+f1.....is that wrong/
[16:13] <NightNine> ?
[16:13] <NightNine> it doesn't do anything
[16:13] <RishavT> NightNine: no. it should do the same as ctrl+alt+f2.
[16:13] <nibblebot>  I want all files created by my user in /var/www set to g+w while allowing their umask to remain at 0022 so that their /home/dir files are not group writable, ideas?
[16:13] <BluesKaj> NightNine, you can also try to get to the grub menu and revovery kernel by holding down the shift key , then choosing fix broken packages in the dialog and then rebooting after the proicess is done.
[16:14] <sincin> hey, i'm in search of a large collection of usefull symbox jpgs/pngs/... symbols (checkmarks, arrows, crosses, pictograms) with no rights (public domain) which i could include in various (noncommercial/commercial) projects, does anybody know such a library? maybe even a huge one with several hundreds of pictograms?
[16:14] <needhelp1> tucemiux, trying that now
[16:14] <BluesKaj> NightNine, correction : recovery kernel
[16:14] <NightNine> ok, great thanks! I'm in livecd right now so I'll have to reboot to try these things...any other advice??
[16:15] <inashdeen> hi, need some help, cant access ubuntu 10.10 after fedora 14 installed side by side'
[16:15] <netzapper> anybody have a clue as to when the next LTS version of ubuntu is expected out? Alternatively, where would I go to determine when a package will be backported from 10.10 to 10.04?
[16:15] <vish> netfreak: 12.04
[16:15] <vish> err! thats for netzapper ^
[16:15] <netzapper> vish: 2012-04?
[16:16] <vish> yup.
[16:16] <BluesKaj> !LTS
[16:16] <adam_> client
[16:16] <netzapper> hmm... what about the backport issue? There's a pretty dire bug in the LTS version of pacemaker/corosync, and 10.10 has the newer package.
[16:17] <needhelp1> tucemiux, lsusb and ls /media  didnt list the drive, but when i go to disk utility it shows it but im unable to access the drive

[16:17] <vish> netzapper: but does the newer version fix the issue?
[16:17] <netzapper> vish: the developers of the project are telling me that it does.
[16:18] <Isenn> Where can i see what applications that start at system startup?
[16:18] <tucemiux> needhelp1, what type of usb drive youre talking about?
[16:18] <NightNine> ok, off to try ctrl+alt+f2  & holding shift
[16:18] <vish> netzapper: then you'd(or they) just have to follow the sru process and it should be fixed
[16:18] <vish> !sru | netzapper
[16:18] <NightNine> ISenn: system -> preferences -> startup apps
[16:18] <needhelp1> its an external enclosure with a hdd plugged into it
[16:18] <needhelp1> hitachi
[16:18] <Isenn> NightNine: that seems to me only be X11 applications
[16:18] <AbhijiT> Isenn, system->preferences->startup ap
[16:18] <Isenn> NightNine: Not Mysql, cron and so on
[16:19] <AbhijiT> oh
[16:19] <netzapper> vish: I see. Well, guess I'll get started on that.
[16:19] <needhelp1> tucemiux, pluged in via usb hitachi hdd plugged into an enclosure
[16:19] <Isenn> must be somewhere, the best whould be if i could find the "bash/script binary" for editing that
[16:19] <joris__> Hi, I executed "ssh -R 5000:localhost:5000<EMAIL_ADDRESS>but i can't access my local service through the remote server
[16:20] <kristianlybaek> Hello - I can't change my preferred email address at either launchpad or Ubuntu one - It tells me my gmail is already registrered but I cannot choose as my preferred mail. Can anyone help?
[16:20] <joris__> has anyone an idea why this doesn't work?
[16:20] <vish> !backport | netzapper
[16:20] <vish> netzapper: that link might also help^
[16:20] <adam_> no link
[16:21] <Pici> kristianlybaek: You may want to ask in #launchpad or #ubuntuone instead of here.
[16:21] <kristianlybaek> Thank you.
[16:21] <tucemiux> needhelp1, it's possible the device is hosed, does it work in windows?  if it's not unmounted correctly sometimes it does funky things, you might have to unplug it and plug it back it,  unplug -- lsusb, plug it in--lsusb - then see if the device is listed
[16:22] <netzapper> vish: alright, so it doesn't appear in lucid-backports. So, my recourse is to go through a bug report/SRU process?
[16:23] <vish> netzapper: yup..
[16:23] <netzapper> vish: and, if I'm reading this correctly, I need to actually build the fixed package?
[16:23] <skooll> Hi
[16:23] <needhelp1> tucemiux, found it
[16:24] <needhelp1> its listed as sunplus
[16:24] <vish> netzapper: not necessarily *you*, but someone has to..
[16:24] <Isenn> Hmm, i really can't find the binary/script that list all init.d script that will be started at system start, anyone know
[16:24] <needhelp1> tucemiux, which i think is the enclosure
[16:24] <skooll> Fucking geek
[16:24] <gpc> !language | skooll
[16:25] <needhelp1> tucemiux, its listed as Bus 002 Device 006: ID 1bcf:0c31 Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc.
[16:25] <netzapper> vish: I see. So, it's not as if I can just send in a bug report and Canonical will assign resources to fixing it. I've got to either do it myself, track down the original package maintainer and talk him/her into it, or talk the upstream devs into building a package?
[16:26] <vish> netzapper: yes, btw, what app are you talking about?
[16:26] <netzapper> vish: it's pacemaker/corosync. It's clustering software.
[16:26] <hypatia> hey folks, on ubuntu 10.10 I'm getting fantastically crappy video recording with my webcam
[16:26] <hypatia> even if i turn the framerate down to 12
[16:26] <tucemiux> needhelp1,  right!  So you know the device is being detected, it should be automatically mounted, typically it gets mounted and you can see it on the GUI, if not you can manually check "/media",  if you do it on the command line is gets mounted with a funky number, something like /media/1FSDF234ASDF
[16:26] <hypatia> any ideas?
[16:27] <vish> hypatia: how are you setting the framerate? and what does "crappy" refer to?
[16:27] <needhelp1> tucemiux, to check /media do i do   ..  cd /media ?
[16:27] <jayeola> hi. has anyone been able to install 10.10-alternate from a USB key? or any alternate version for that matter?
[16:27] <adam_> they have problems.
[16:27] <tucemiux> needhelp1, anyone you like - that will work, also: ls -la /media
[16:28] <hypatia> vish: i set the framerate in guvcview, which is where i also tried recording.  crappy = video and audio both stuttering, at different rates
[16:28] <joris__> hi, i have a service which i can access on a server with localhost:5000
[16:28] <joris__> but i want to access it from the outside, where should i set this?
[16:28] <joris__> so i can access it from the outside?
[16:28] <84XABPN8M> Wich service Joris__?
[16:28] <needhelp1> tucemiux, would the fiesystem matter ?
[16:29] <needhelp1> tucemiux, unsupported file system?
[16:29] <InputOutput> @joris: open the firewall
[16:29] <tucemiux> needhelp1,  is the USB device formatted?? is it brand new or have you used it before?
[16:29] <vish> hypatia: hmm, i havent tried guvcview … but did you happen to try recording with cheese and is it the same problem there?
[16:29] <needhelp1> tucemiux, ls /media only shows my one drive, and not the enclosure
[16:29] <needhelp1> tucemiux, its out of a ps3
[16:29] <joris__> 84XABPN8M a general game server (a tcp connection)
[16:30] <tucemiux> needhelp1, you need to be **specific** with your question, you just wasted 10 minutes of my time
[16:30] <joris__> InputOutput if i just make shure port 5000 is open, it should work then? ok, thanks i'm going to try that:)
[16:30] <needhelp1> tucemiux, im sorry
[16:30] <needhelp1> tucemiux, did i do something wrong?
[16:31] <Pici> !portforward | joris__
[16:31] <84XABPN8M> Dows it have a conf file? Joris__? If so, check the bind address and configure for your net etherface address, also check with your firewall is blocking the port.
[16:31] <hypatia> vish: it's worse in cheese, that's what i tried first
[16:31] <home-alone> what is the best speed to burn an ISO on a DVD
[16:31] <tucemiux> needhelp1, you need to tell people you have a drive pulled out of a ps3, ive never done that and cant help you further
[16:32] <needhelp1> tucemiux, k thanks for your time
[16:32] <AbhijiT> home-alone, lowest is safest!
[16:32] <birrbert> hi everyone
[16:32] <birrbert> I recently had to reinstall Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Server on my home server, but before that I loaded setup defaults in BIOS. By doing this the hard drive controller setting was made IDE. So I reinstalled the operating system in IDE mode and I was wondering if switching to AHCI would affect it? I know that Windows doesn't like if you do that and it will not boot. How would Ubuntu react? How would
[16:32] <birrbert> it affect the operating system and the system performance?
[16:32] <FloodBot3> birrbert: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:32] <needhelp1> can anyone help me with accessing a ps3 hard drive on ubuntu via a enclosure
[16:32] <vish> hypatia: oh! what hardware is this? is it a netbook by any chance?
[16:32] <hypatia> vish: this is on a pretty recent machine - core2duo, supported intel graphics, 4gb ram
[16:32] <hypatia> maybe i need to turn off compiz
[16:32] <home-alone> you sure I should burn at lowest...??? and brasero or K3B
[16:32] <halpbatman> pretty sure Ps3 format is FAT
[16:32] <vish> hypatia: sorry, no clue then..
[16:33] <iceroot> halpbatman: fat can only handle 4GB files so i dont think its using FAT
[16:33] <maco> hypatia: i have the same trouble with cheese for video recording from my webcam. it catches one frame every few seconds :(
[16:33] <joris__> !firewall
[16:33] <birrbert> I use Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Server and I was wondering if switching from IDE to AHCI in the BIOS would affect the system? I know that Windows doesn't like if you do that and it will not boot. How would Ubuntu react? How would it affect the operating system and the system performance?
[16:33] <vish> maco: wfm ;p
[16:34] <jazzyjef> anyone have any ideas about udev system
[16:34] <g_0_0> I think ps3 is FAT32
[16:34] <hypatia> maco: grr
[16:34] <vish> maco: it doesnt have the driver setting though, we need to install v4lucp to change the driver settings..
[16:35] <hypatia> ok with compiz turned off the video is smooth but now the audio is hosed
[16:35] <hypatia> hehe
[16:35] <hypatia> it records the audio at like 2x speed
[16:35] <needhelp1> how do i mount a drive
[16:35] <hypatia> SO WEIRD
[16:35] <needhelp1> its like its not mounting
[16:35] <halpbatman> ice799: http://www.wikihow.com/Add-an-External-Hard-Drive-to-a-PlayStation-3
[16:35] <hypatia> needhelp1: using sudo?
[16:35] <halpbatman> ice799: says it's fat 32
[16:35] <needhelp1> yeah
[16:35] <nmvictor> is their a proper fix for netbeans(and other java apps) with compiz, sometimes the windows and menu are blank
[16:35] <iceroot> halpbatman: hm ok
[16:36] <lcb> please someone, could you please give me some 'help' place where i could get the correct configuration for no-ip.com on ddclient.
[16:36] <halpbatman> anyways
[16:36] <halpbatman> I'm trying to get rid of the unity launcher and make my menubar autohide
[16:37] <halpbatman> I'm using Ubuntu netbook remix
[16:37] <hypatia> bleh, this sucks, i haven't had to reboot into windows to get something done in like a year, hehe.  but i'm on a deadline :/
[16:37] <hypatia> back in a bit!
[16:37] <halpbatman> anyone knows hwo to do it?
[16:37] <tucemiux> i smell a troll
[16:37] <g_0_0> halpbatman, to autohide menubar, right click menubar choose properties then autohide
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> halpbatman:  install the normal gnome desktop and customize it how you like.
[16:38] <halpbatman> g_0_0: i can't right click on the menubar at all
[16:38] <halpbatman> Dr_Willis: how do i go about doing that?
[16:38] <tucemiux> 10.10 comes with unity?
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> the netboook interface is locked down.. install 'ubuntu-desktop' package and use the normal gnome desktop0
[16:38] <tucemiux> ahhh netbook, thats right
[16:38] <halpbatman> Dr_Willis: so sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop?
[16:39] <Dr_Willis> yes
[16:39] <halpbatman> it's stupid cause netbooks have less screen space.. why would you keep these stupid things locked
[16:40] <halpbatman> retoded
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> halpbatman:  they are set to show the most desktop by default i thought.
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> use gnome default desktop and edit it how you want. have4 fun.
[16:40] <halpbatman> Dr_Willis: no it's by default locked
[16:41] <g_0_0> halpbatman, use gconf-editor
[16:41] <halpbatman> Dr_Willis: thx
[16:41] <halpbatman> g_0_0: I did it doesn't do anything
[16:41] <groo> can either virtualbox or wine boot an existing win7 partition?
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> groo:  vbox can but its NOT reccomended.
[16:42] <vish> groo: wine cant do that, but you can use virtualbox to boot
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> vbox doc give HUGE warnings to not do it.
[16:42] <groo> ok ty
[16:42] <vish> yea, and what Dr_Willis said..
[16:42] <halpbatman> thx all
[16:43] <manohar> I upgraded my ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04 recently. I am not able to enable desktop effects. How can i enable it
[16:44] <vish> groo: more than the VBOX's warnings, your windows setup will start recognizing the virtualbox boot as a new different hardware and when you boot back into windows the regular way,. you'd have hardware warnings again
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> manohar:  be siure you got the proper video card drivers installed.
[16:45] <manohar> Dr_Willis, it was perfectly working in 8.04
[16:46] <mOHawk> manohar maybe need set visual effects?

[16:51] <ubuntu> hey. I wanted to move my ubuntu isntallation from old partitoin to new HDD partiton. So i followed the instruction on http://askubuntu.com/questions/20460/move-installation-to-new-disk. Atleast the first two commands = sudo cp -ax /media/old-partition /media/new-partition AND sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/new-partition /dev/SSD_DEVICE       by replacing the correct values for the...
[16:51] <ubuntu> ...device and parition. But i don't undestand the FSTAB part. When restarting with the new HDD in priority I only get a black screen with GRUB command. Pressing ENTER creates a new line with again the GRUB command.. what did I miss?

[17:01] <g_0_0> Williams, go to alsamixer check channel isn't muted
[17:04] <ubuntu> vish: will you giveme step by step of what to do with the fSTAB? I just used the command : ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid and it lists all the partitoins with long string of letters in green. What do I do next.. please tell me step by step.. remember I am booting right now through the lIVE CD USB
[17:06] <vish> ubuntu: do you know which partition corresponds to which mount point?
[17:07] <ubuntu> sda3
[17:07] <vish> ubuntu: as in /dev/sda1 is /home and so on..
[17:07] <ubuntu> well..
[17:07] <supercom32> it always says "An error occured while checking for updates" and manually checking for updates works fine. But if I open the update dialog it says "You may not be able to check for updates or download new updates". Probably because it can't see a network connection? How do I resolve this? :-)
[17:08] <ubuntu> see... sda3 is the partition into which the older partitoin's files have been copied by **sudo cp -ax /media/old-partition /media/new-partition** command..

[17:38] <vish> UbuntuBOOT: so it worked? ;)
[17:38] <nemo> manohar: hm. compiz blacklisted that one. interesting
[17:38] <ikonia> skutr3: open the package manager, search for "flashplugin-nonfree" click "install" on it
[17:38] <pn3um0> skutr3: rpm? ubuntu uses the deb files
[17:38] <manohar> nemo, please help what should i do now?
[17:38] <nemo> ikonia: well. I use the beta personally, just placed it in ~/.mozilla/plugins - fixed problems with fullscreen flash video
[17:39] <codemonkey1991> Could anyone tell me which file in ubuntu the DNS servers are stored?
[17:39] <skutr3> ikonia: its not there
[17:39] <nemo> manohar: http://wiki.compiz.org/Hardware/Blacklist
[17:39] <ikonia> skutr3: what version of ubuntu are you using
[17:39] <pythonizer> Heey there everybody. This is my first time in the channel!
[17:39] <ikonia> !topic | pythonizer
[17:39] <nemo> manohar: try that skip checks thing
[17:39] <skutr3> ikonia: the latest
[17:39] <nemo> manohar: or, upgrading to 10.10.
[17:39] <pn3um0> hi pythonizer
[17:39] <ikonia> skutr3: no, which version are you using
[17:40] <MrMintanet01> How do I get the 3D cube in Compiz Fusion to bind to the center mouse button?
[17:40] <skutr3> ikonia: the latest version
[17:40] <pythonizer> hi there pn3um0
[17:40] <codemonkey1991> Could anyone tell me which file in ubuntu the DNS servers are stored?
[17:40] <ikonia> skutr3: tell me the version number you have
[17:40] <pythonizer> CodeMonkey, no need to spam. i'm on it.
[17:40] <nemo> codemonkey1991: /etc/resolv.conf - but. are you using network manager?
[17:40] <nemo> codemonkey1991: you really should set it up in there, so it'll persist
[17:40] <supercom32> Anyone know what's the diffrence between the Notification area and Indicator applet?
[17:40] <skutr3> ikonia: isnt it like 10.10
[17:41] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Yes, I'm using network manager. I just changed the DNS servers with no effect so i wanted to echo that file out of curiosity
[17:41] <ikonia> skutr3: ok, so do "apt-cache search flashplugin" on the command line
[17:41] <manohar> nemo, will upgrading to 10.10 be fine? means its not working in lucid will it work in 10.10?
[17:41] <nemo> codemonkey1991: ah. might have to enable/disable network, dunno.
[17:41] <ikonia> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[17:41] <nemo> manohar: the blacklists may have changed, sure.
[17:41] <nemo> manohar: certainly a newer version of compiz
[17:41] <pythonizer> @codemonkey: sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[17:41] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Yeah.. I see resolv.conf still contains the old, bad NS
[17:41] <MrMintanet01> How do I get the 3D cube in Compiz Fusion to bind to the center mouse button?
[17:42] <skutr3> ikonia: ok
[17:42] <ikonia> skutr3: do you see a package ?
[17:42] <milen8204> Hello all, I have a problem with the program recordmydesktop, it records on very fast :Д
[17:42] <loculinux> que pasa ahi
[17:43] <Sephz> can someone answer me some package versions and installation questions?
[17:43] <skutr3> ikonia: nothing happened
[17:43] <MrMintanet01> How do I get the 3D cube in Compiz Fusion to bind to the center mouse button?
[17:43] <ikonia> skutr3: please pastebin the output from apt-cache search flash
[17:43] <nemo> funny how this channel goes from quiet to overwhelming just like that
[17:43] <skutr3> ikonia: there was no output
[17:43] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Yeah sorru 'bout that :P
[17:43] <codemonkey1991> sorry*
[17:43] <manohar> nemo, thanks for the reply
[17:43] <ikonia> skutr3: please do "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" what happens then
[17:44] <manohar> nemo, will check if checks works for me
[17:44] <milen8204> MrMintanet, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGY9cwSjZsU
[17:44] <MrMintanet01> Can't view YouTube, Milen
[17:44] <MrMintanet01> :(
[17:44] <milen8204> bad
[17:44] <MrMintanet01> I am on a work computer, and I have YouTube blocked.
[17:44] <nemo> manohar: well. looks like lucid 10.04 has hardcoded the checks so you can't use the variable :(
[17:44] <MrMintanet01> lol
[17:44] <milen8204> do you have copiz settings manager ?
[17:45] <nemo> manohar: according to the compiz wiki page I linked to
[17:45] <codemonkey1991> nemo: I just had to reconnect and the DNS settings were applied. I changed my DNS to google :)
[17:45] <MrMintanet01> milen8204, Yep
[17:45] <nemo> codemonkey1991: ah. I use opendns these days
[17:45] <xro> hi, i have an issue with one of my server.... i had to reboot it..... but it dosen't reboot... it is locked at "starting system message bus: dbus"... have you an idea?
[17:45] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Which ever updates faster :-)
[17:45] <nemo> codemonkey1991: well, I actually also use dnscachex on my gentoo server and some local overrides, and failover to the root server
[17:45] <MrMintanet01> xro, failsafe?
[17:45] <Wipster> hey I am trying to setup the i8k fan control for my dell latitude laptop and for instance when I turn the fan speed up or down it does it momentarily then resets like something else is fighting my settings. Anyone seen this before is the BIOS not letting go?
[17:45] <nemo> codemonkey1991: but I thought using root servers alone was rather antisocial, so opendns is first now
[17:46] <milen8204> MrMintanet, i can explain well but try in to the setting
[17:46] <nemo> codemonkey1991: but if you want speed, dns cachers :)
[17:46] <xro> MrMintanet01, failsafe? what do you mean?
[17:46] <skutr3> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/565087/
[17:46] <nemo> codemonkey1991: oh. you want fast update. ok. that conflicts w/ caching ;)
[17:46] <MrMintanet01> Wipster, It depends very much on the BIOS.  Have you even looked there?  I know that my BIOS on my HP Mobile Workstation has a fan control like this.
[17:46] <MrMintanet01> xro, nevermind.  I misread your post.
[17:46] <joepa> I accidentally hosed my kernel, such that grub2 cannot find it. Is there an easy way to use a live cd to install a new kernel in an existing installation?
[17:46] <ikonia> skutr3: close any other package manager windows you are using
[17:47] <codemonkey1991> nemo: I do want fast updates as i dabble in DNS, but won't my OS cache for speed?
[17:47] <nemo> oh. hey. since I'm here. has anyone encountered problems w/ LCD brightness control in 10.04?  My mom's complaining about her laptop doing that
[17:47] <ikonia> joepa: how did you "hose" it
[17:47] <squig> hello I was wondering what people use for automated network installs of ubuntu
[17:47] <joepa> deleted it
[17:47] <Sephz> can someone answer me some questions about libglib package installation and its versions?
[17:47] <ikonia> joepa: how
[17:47] <joepa> ikonia: apt-get purge kernel-image
[17:47] <Wipster> MrMintanet01, I have looked and their is no fan control options at-all
[17:47] <joepa> ikonia: I thought I had another kernel installed
[17:47] <nemo> codemonkey1991: most local DNS caching is just the ARP cache. is just a few seconds.
[17:47] <nemo> codemonkey1991: apps have their own caches sometimes.
[17:47] <joepa> ikonia: but I did not
[17:47] <ikonia> joepa: you'll need to boot from a livecd, setup your networking, chroot to your install and re apt-get the kernel image
[17:47] <joepa> ikonia: so there's no kernel in /boot now
[17:47] <nemo> codemonkey1991: I set my dns cache to like 2 weeks - I rarely have to flush it
[17:48] <MrMintanet01> milen8204, my mouse shows that it has "9" buttons to chose from.  lol.  How do I know which is the right button, and which setting should I change the bindings to?  Rotate Cube -> Initiate?
[17:48] <xro> MrMintanet01, and have you an idea? what can freeze the boot at "starting system message bus: dbus"?
[17:48] <Pici> !!automate | squig this should get you started
[17:48] <MrMintanet01> Wipster, I am not sure.
[17:48] <nemo> codemonkey1991: means most DNS lookups are local to the cacher, and lightning fast, plus, no nosiness on an ISP or opendns on what I'm resolving
[17:48] <nemo> codemonkey1991: also allows me to blacklist naughty domains to <IP_ADDRESS> :D
[17:48] <MrMintanet01> xro, I think you should run diagnostics on your machine using a livecd
[17:48] <skutr3> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/565088/
[17:48] <g_0_0> squig, a how to guide - http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_pxe_install_server
[17:48] <Wipster> MrMintanet01, ok thanks - anyone else? :)
[17:48] <luishasbon> hello dear users and admin
[17:49] <pythonizer> heey there luishasbon
[17:49] <luishasbon> Im glad to sign in here once again
[17:49] <codemonkey1991> nemo: I see. Would it be possible to set up DNS caching on my PC? With flush and everything? :P

[17:49] <ikonia> !flash | skutr3
[17:49] <milen8204> MrMintanet, I think the third button is the mouse roller
[17:49] <nemo> codemonkey1991: I imagine there are a few dns cachers for ubuntu, yeah
[17:49] <xro> MrMintanet01, i will try... thanks
[17:49] <nemo> codemonkey1991: as noted, did my setup of djb's tools on my externally facing gentoo, but I guess concept is similar
[17:50] <trukosh> Hi, "ssh user@host ls" will execute ls and close remote shell. I want to have the shell stay open but directly execute one command.
[17:50] <MrMintanet01> xro, sorry.  I would google it for you, but I'm sure you already have.  Wish I could help more.
[17:50] <ikonia> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[17:50] <luishasbon> i had an issue with  sound in ubuntu, i have it 10.10, i just installed a new nvidia card gts 450 it has hdmi sound support, but i don't want to use the hdmi soundcard i want to use my motherboard default soundcard as i dont have the proper cords and cables for hdmi audio
[17:51] <milen8204> MrMintanet, can you get files ?
[17:51] <MrMintanet01> milen8204, I changed it to button three, but nothing is happeneing when I click the center mouse button.  The 3D cube simply does not turn on.  Am I needing to enable some sort of 3D setting?
[17:51] <dury> hi there channel :)
[17:51] <xro> MrMintanet01, yes, i already look in google (i found issue with ldap but this server dont have an ldap installed), reboot in single mode... and so on ...
[17:51] <nemo> trukosh: how about 'ls;sleep 100'
[17:51] <pythonizer> @nemo+@codemonkey: I have heard of dnsmasq
[17:51] <nemo> trukosh: what are you doing anyway
[17:51] <milen8204> MrMintanet, i will send you avideo :D
[17:51] <pythonizer> !info dnsmasq
[17:51] <codemonkey1991> nemo: I actually use Linux Mint, which is virtually just Ubuntu. DNS is an issue for a later time though as google works faster than i need. Also i suppose TCP connections won't profit from DNS lookup speeds once connected?
[17:51] <MrMintanet01> milen8204, Thanks!
[17:51] <GeekMan> some one ask me why when i type yes in the terminal the screen fills with "y"s
[17:52] <milen8204> MrMintanet, it is 13.1 MB
[17:52] <nemo> pythonizer: sounds decent. I use djb's tools 'cause I also like running my own DNS for my domain.
[17:52] <dmar198> hi, I'm on Ubuntu (just updated), using Google Chrome 9 with the latest update (issued today) which is supposed to have the newest Flash Player (10.2)
[17:52] <dury> is it possible to convert .ppt file to .avi, .mp4
[17:52] <Pici> !mint | codemonkey1991
[17:52] <pythonizer> @nemo: get it :)
[17:52] <luishasbon> i had an issue with  sound in ubuntu, i have it 10.10, i just installed a new nvidia card gts 450 it has hdmi sound support, but i don't want to use the hdmi soundcard i want to use my motherboard default soundcard as i dont have the proper cords and cables for hdmi audio
[17:52] <dmar198> that flash player is supposed to fix fullscreen Flash on dual monitors
[17:52] <dmar198> problem: it's not fixed
[17:52] <dmar198> any ideas?
[17:52] <pythonizer> Bot is some sort of a racist, ain't he?
[17:52] <squig> I was wondering if any one had used network install, preseeding or kickstart?
[17:52] <nemo> codemonkey1991: you'd be surprised what can benefit. like, if you're loading a web page, you often make dozens of connections - obviously most of 'em are arp cached
[17:52] <nemo> codemonkey1991: but that only lasts a short while
[17:53] <nemo> codemonkey1991: and often sites have subdomains and such, for like images and whatnot
[17:53] <Sephz> can someone answer me some questions about libglib package installation and its versions?
[17:53] <GeekMan> all you do is type "yes" and the screen keeps showing the letter y
[17:53] <pythonizer> ppl, can somebody send me to a site with all those shortcuts like !mint !topic
[17:53] <dury> is it possible to convert .ppt file to which is powerpoint made up to a video stream
[17:53] <pythonizer> and so on
[17:53] <Pici> Sephz: Don't ask to ask, just ask.
[17:53] <pythonizer> dury: you can convert it to a .pdf and use impressivepdf
[17:53] <codemonkey1991> nemo: I've never seen that before, but I'm sure you're right :-) But the only thing i NEED speed for is gaming, and I suppose an online game will establish a TCP connection and work with the IP
[17:54] <pythonizer> !info | impressivepdf
[17:54] <nemo> codemonkey1991: true enough.
[17:54] <luishasbon> i had an issue with  sound in ubuntu, i have it 10.10, i just installed a new nvidia card gts 450 it has hdmi sound support, but i don't want to use the hdmi soundcard i want to use my motherboard default soundcard as i dont have the proper cords and cables for hdmi audio

[17:55] <pythonizer> Yes it is an application.
[17:55] <nemo> so. yeah. anyone have any ideas for laptop brightness problems that appeared in 10.04 ? I tried setting acpi_backlight=vendor - but didn't help
[17:55] <Pici> !info impressive | dury
[17:56] <dury> right
[17:56] <pythonizer> Thank you, Pici. I hadn't had the time to try it
[17:56] <Wipster> MrMintanet01, ok amazing if anyone comes with this problem like me, tell them hold Shift + fn, type 15324 then hit fn + r and you can disable the thermal control, works even in an os
[17:56] <pythonizer> ;)
[17:56] <pythonizer> just seen it in a presentation on ubuntu
[17:56] <galamar> hello i am looking for a way to use my joystick as a mouse in ubuntu 10.04. i previously had natty and i cant remeber what made it work. i also had it working with a ps3 running ubuntu conneted to the ps3controller thru bluetooth. (however bilb's ps3bodega made this easy). but i am not able to do so with 10.04 yet.
[17:56] <nemo> hm. maybe acpi_osi=Linux - I see that mentioned elsewhere...
[17:56] <trukosh> nemo, thx but sleep doesn't help. I want a prompt. I connect to one box. And from there to another. (ssh user@box1 special_ssh user@box2) And on the second host i want the shell..
[17:57] <amr> ive just installed 10.10 on my desktop, and im getting some 'FATAL' errors when i first start, but they go away and i get the text version of the bootup screen
[17:57] <dury> pythonizer: is there a package for 64 bits OS
[17:57] <nemo> trukosh: ah. and you want to execute the command on startup?
[17:57] <trukosh> Yes nemo!
[17:57] <amr> how do i fix it? seems to be referencing the kernel
[17:57] <MACscr> ok, so im running 10.10 with the default gnome. What should I be using for having a sidebar with upcoming events, rss feeds, etc. Screenlets, widgets, what? I want it so that when i maximize a window, they can still be seen
[17:57] <nemo> trukosh: why not just add the connection to your .bashrc or somesuch?
[17:57] <nemo> I guess you could do a wrapper script...
[17:57] <nemo> hm
[17:57] <pythonizer> dury: it doesn't matter. you can install it on any machine with ubuntu
[17:57]  * nemo tries a wrapper script
[17:57] <nemo> trukosh: (er, add the ls to your .bashrc I mean)
[17:57] <trukosh> nemo: There are different connections .. there is box3 and box4, ...
[17:58] <dury> pythonizer: right... is it sudo apt-get install impresivepdf
[17:58] <pythonizer> no
[17:58] <pythonizer> dury: sudo apt-get impressive
[17:58] <trukosh> I want one command in my menu to connect to box3, box4,.. (nemo)
[17:58] <luishasbon> i had an issue with  sound in ubuntu, i have it 10.10, i just installed a new nvidia card gts 450 it has hdmi sound support, but i don't want to use the hdmi soundcard i want to use my motherboard default soundcard as i dont have the proper cords and cables for hdmi audio
[17:58] <dury> pythonizer: right
[17:58] <nemo> trukosh: ohhhh
[17:58] <pythonizer> dury: sudo apt-get install impressive (forgot the install)
[17:58] <nemo> trukosh: you should have aid :D
[17:58] <nemo> said
[17:58] <nemo> trukosh: lemme message you on this one
[17:58] <FloodBot3> nemo: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:58] <dury> pythonizer: I see
[17:58] <dmar198> can someone help me with fullscreen flash issues?
[17:58] <trukosh> ok nemo. Thx!
[17:59] <dmar198> I've got two monitors
[17:59] <mickster04> !someone
[17:59] <dmar198> and it ruins fullscreen flash

[17:59] <pythonizer> !someone | dmar198
[17:59] <g_0_0> luishasbon, go to system sound preferences and select your internal card
[18:00] <g_0_0> luishasbon, mmm I mean system preferences sound - pick your motherboard card -
[18:00] <dmar198> I'm sorry for misusing the enter key, let me try again: I downloaded the latest flash player upgrade, which is supposed to fix dual monitor fullscreen flash issues, but I am still having those issues. Any ideas?
[18:01] <joepa> ikonia: thanks, chrooting was something I wasn't familiar with, but it looks like that is going to do the trick
[18:01] <MrMintanet01> Can someone please tell me how I can enable the 3D cube in Compiz?  I am lost.  I have Compiz Config Manager installed, but I am not sure how to "enable" the 3D cube and use the middle mouse button to "initiate" it.  I have tried using the obvious options, but nothing is working.  I think I may be missing something.
[18:02] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Do you happen to know how to enable viewing current path in the terminal? Currently my VPS only shows "[username]$"
[18:02] <slingshot316> hey ! how can i downgrade to python 2.5 from python 2.6 , m using ubuntu 10.10 , thank you
[18:02] <pythonizer> !someone | MrMintanet01
[18:02] <Vipertje> guys i fucked something up i think :(
[18:02] <staar2> hello
[18:03] <Vipertje> i created a new user
[18:03] <staar2> users-admin ?
[18:03] <codemonkey1991> Does anybody know how to enable viewing current path in the terminal?  What?
[18:03] <mickster04> pythonizer: actually his question was pretty detailed
[18:03] <nemo> codemonkey1991: pwd
[18:03] <Pici> Vipertje: Please mind your language here.
[18:03] <MACscr> codemonkey1991: pwd
[18:03] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: go to the settings manager>>search for "cube". check Rotate Cube (make sure it has a tick next to it). It'll ask for disabling desktop wall, disable it. It'll also enable Desktop Cube.
[18:03] <nemo> codemonkey1991: you can change your path settings in your bash config
[18:03] <Vipertje> now when i try to cd /home/vipertje
[18:03] <staar2> is there linux channel to ?
[18:03] <Pici> slingshot316: You shouldn't really do that.  Is there a reason why you can't just install python2.5?
[18:03] <MrMintanet01> RishavT, Thanks!  But how do I bind my middle mouse button to it?
[18:03] <Vipertje> i get send back to ~$
[18:03] <MACscr> staar2: yes
[18:04] <Vipertje> instead of opening the folder
[18:04] <codemonkey1991> nemo: No, i mean i want the current directory path to be the start of every line, if you know what i mean
[18:04] <Vipertje> under root i can open the folder
[18:04] <slingshot316> Pici: yes, m planning to use google app engine and it has issues with python 2.6
[18:04] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: That should happen automatically as soon as Rotate Cube gets checked. And btw middle button works only on the desktop.
[18:04] <MACscr> Vipertje: thats correct though
[18:04] <MACscr> they equal the same thing
[18:04] <nemo> codemonkey1991: export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD}\007"'
[18:04] <nemo> codemonkey1991: that's one I use on a lot of machines
[18:04] <MrMintanet01> RishavT, I am using an iBook G4 port of 10.10.  Do you think that this could be part of my problem?
[18:04] <nemo> codemonkey1991: you can put that in your bashrc
[18:04] <Vipertje> but why doesnt it display nicely
[18:05] <Vipertje> like /home/vipertje
[18:05] <MACscr> ~$ is the same as /home/username
[18:05] <Vipertje> like it does under root
[18:05] <nemo> codemonkey1991: well. I have it in a $TERM check, but you might be ok on most terminals w/ it
[18:05] <Vipertje> cause its the home folder ?
[18:05] <MACscr> yes
[18:05] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: you could also press ctrl+alt and left click anywhere, for cube to initiate. Dont think iBook should be a problem till you are using compiz as window manager.
[18:05] <Vipertje> hmmm oke
[18:05] <marine__> hi
[18:05] <nemo> codemonkey1991: customising it should be in the bash man page, but you can use most env variables (up there I'm using USER/HOSTNAME/PWD)
[18:05] <MACscr> Vipertje: just like if you wanted to get to your downloads folder, you can just type in cd ~/Downloads
[18:05] <Pici> slingshot316: And you can't specify python2.5 in the shebang?
[18:05] <dmar198> how might I fix the fullscreen flash issue that occurs when using dual monitors?
[18:06] <MACscr> Vipertje: which would be the same as cd /home/username/Downloads
[18:06] <codemonkey1991> nemo: ok i ran "export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD}\007"'"
[18:06] <Vipertje> ah oke i get it :)
[18:06] <Vipertje> thnks
[18:06] <Pici> slingshot316: You may want to take a look at this: http://www.cloudartisan.com/2010/10/google-app-engine-sdk-broken-on-ubuntu-maverick-10-10/
[18:06] <codemonkey1991> nemo: but nothing happened. Will I have to relog?
[18:06] <pythonizer> MrMintaNet01 mickster04: Whoaaaa :D I'm sorry. Gotta be my closing eyelids... Sorry!
[18:06] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: If it still doesn't work, try "compiz --replace" in the run prompt (alt+f2). that'll restart compiz. then try rotating it.
[18:06] <MrMintanet01> ;)
[18:07] <ubuntu> vish:
[18:07] <slingshot316> Pici: thank you so much for the link let me go through it
[18:08] <MrMintanet01> RishavT, compiz (core) - Fatal: Software rendering detected.
[18:08] <galamar> is my question to complex or maybe the right people just are not here? idk it was so simple to do with 11.04 i dont understand.

[18:08] <Mead> anyone here interested in website design?
[18:08] <marine__> hi ,how we can give permission to specific user on a dir ?
[18:08] <nemo> codemonkey1991: hmmm. admittedly I've never done that on an *ubuntu* machine which does not use bash by default, but still... eh. lemme check
[18:08] <Pici> Mead: This isn't really the right place for such discussion, try #ubuntu-offtopic or ##web
[18:08] <nemo> codemonkey1991: there's always PS1 I suppose
[18:08] <sreedas> In persistent mode selecetion on LiveUSB startup, apart from data used for persistent mode creation, how much data is left for package installation or its used from persistent storage?
[18:09] <nemo> codemonkey1991: ah. PS1 seems to work. hrm
[18:09] <codemonkey1991> PS1?
[18:09] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: that shouldn't happen. this might help: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=51645
[18:09] <nemo> codemonkey1991: try that instead of the prompt thingy. same variables should work
[18:09] <nemo> not sure about colours though
[18:09] <Pici> nemo: Eh? Ubuntu uses bash by default.  It doesn't use 'sh' by default though, dash instead.
[18:09] <codemonkey1991> nemo: ok
[18:09] <nemo> Pici: ah. my mistake. I thought it always used dash
[18:09] <slingshot316> Pici: can you please send me the link agian?
[18:10] <nemo> Pici: I've run into many scripts failing in ubuntu so have gotten used to being explicit
[18:10] <RishavT> MrMintanet01: try the 2nd post first. (before disabling anything).
[18:10] <Pici> slingshot316: http://www.cloudartisan.com/2010/10/google-app-engine-sdk-broken-on-ubuntu-maverick-10-10/
[18:10] <nemo> Pici: rather irritating actually. but come to think of it, their autocomplete tricks are definitely bash
[18:10] <nemo> Pici: (and also annoying when they fail hard)
[18:10] <maco> nemo: the "sh" command calls dash, but the shell you login on is bash
[18:10] <nemo> maco: yeah. fair 'nuff
[18:10] <deuterium> hm.. is it possible to boot ubuntu from an external usb hard disk directly?
[18:11] <nemo> maco: huh. PROMPT_COMMAND should work then I thought :-/
[18:11] <nemo> deuterium: depends on your computer's support for that
[18:11] <nemo> deuterium: modern machines, usually, although you might have to use a boot menu
[18:11] <deuterium> nemo: i.e. the bios?
[18:11] <nemo> deuterium: yep.
[18:11] <deuterium> nemo: ok, thx. will check.
[18:11] <nemo> deuterium: I've found though that if you set flash at top of list in bios, sometimes it still doesn't work
[18:11] <pn3um0> deuterium: sure, you have only to change the bootloader position at the installation to your usb device
[18:11] <nemo> deuterium: no idea why (USB slow to scan?)
[18:12] <nemo> deuterium: so in those cases I've had to pull up a boot menu, which varies from machine to machine
[18:12] <aakside> Accidentally perm. deleted some files. Can I get them back?
[18:12] <deuterium> pn3um0: so that would depend on grub only?
[18:12] <nemo> deuterium: I do a lot of USB booting :)
[18:12] <pn3um0> deuterium: and on bios usb boot compatibility
[18:12] <deuterium> nemo: ok
[18:12] <deuterium> pn3um0: i see. so it's both.
[18:13] <deuterium> will try it :)
[18:13] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Thanks for the help, that worked perfectly
[18:13] <pn3um0> deuterium: yep
[18:14] <milen8204> MrMintanet, did you enable your 3d windows
[18:14] <nemo> Pici, maco - on the subject of bash, I don't suppose you guys know of some variable hidden in default ubuntu bash to disable autocomplete extension filtering?
[18:14] <nemo> it fails way too often on me to be useful
[18:14] <nemo> but I'd still like to keep things like ssh autocomplete
[18:14] <nemo> er. scp
[18:14] <MACscr> maybe its me, but i think the screenlet options are pretty crappy. Is there a better alternative to screenlets?
[18:14] <PerkaJ> Hi, I'm installing Ubuntu server 64 using the Universal-USB-installer to get it to a USB stick. Once I boot from the USB and select to install ubuntu, it gets stuck. I had a look at what it tried to boot and found the path install\netboot\ubuntu-installer\i386 even though its for 64 (that has ..ubuntu-installer\amd64) renaming amd64 to i386 the install started..  Is it wrong with my iso? Or usb-installer that it messing up things?
[18:14] <maco> nemo: autocomplete extension filtering? -ENOPARSE
[18:15] <nemo> maco: as an env var?
[18:15] <maco> nemo: that was an ERROR message
[18:15] <maco> nemo: it means "i have no idea what you just said"
[18:15] <nemo> maco: /etc/bash_completion I'm guessing
[18:15] <codemonkey1991> nemo: Urh, seems I'm going to have to retract my statement
[18:15] <nemo> maco: but to explain.  try typing  mplayer somefile<tab>
[18:15] <maco> nemo: bash completion isnt installed by default
[18:15] <codemonkey1991> nemo: It's not working as it should
[18:16] <maco> nemo: bash upstream removed it
[18:16] <nemo> maco: and if somefile is somefile.gif
[18:16] <nemo> it refuses to complete
[18:16] <nemo> maco: oh. interesting. I wonder why I still have it enabled...
[18:16] <maco> nemo: there's a bash-completion package...guess you have it installed
[18:16] <nemo> maco: well. the thing is, I want to keep scp autocomplete - that one is useful
[18:16] <nemo> is just the extension autocompletion that is horribly broken
[18:17] <nemo> so I was wondering if there was a var for it
[18:17] <Synthead> ASS
[18:17] <maco> nemo: i dont know
[18:17] <nemo> ah well. was worth a shot
[18:17] <maco> nemo: not being maintained upstream is why its a spearate package though. guess you could dig into the code...

[18:18] <manohar> Wallpaper change crontab job not working after upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
[18:18] <manohar> It worked fine in Hardy
[18:19] <manohar> It works when I give the same command in the terminal but same in /etc/crontab file doesnot work anymore
[18:20] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Did you forget some environment variable assignments, possibly?
[18:21] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, the same entry and script was working like a charm before upgrading
[18:21] <manohar> what sort of env. variables
[18:22] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Did you copy the whole crontab file, or just the one line?
[18:22] <m0nhawk> hi guys!
[18:22] <dmar198> how might I fix the fullscreen flash bug that occurs when using dual monitors?
[18:22] <thelivingded> Wasn't there a fix posted online a little while back?
[18:22] <thelivingded> Let me see if I can find it
[18:22] <manohar> i dint change any thing in the crontab file
[18:23] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, the file is the same as it was working fine before upgrade
[18:23] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: And the command works in the shell?
[18:24] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: In general, the difference between running things as a cronjob and running them in the shell will be the environment variables.
[18:24] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, yes it works in the shell
[18:24] <Guest22140> Hey! I'm trying to build php 5.3.5 for ubuntu maverick but I'm having some problems... Can anybody direct me to a suitable channel?
[18:24] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, which env variable?
[18:25] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: I can't say specifically what the difference is, but that's probably the issue.
[18:25] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Could be anything. Are you using any relative paths or referring to any binaries on the PATH?
[18:25] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Are you getting email from cron?
[18:25] <manohar> no emails as i have redirected it to a null file
[18:26] <KirkMcDonald> Maybe drop the redirect so you can see whatever error message it might be giving.
[18:26] <manohar> KirkMcDonald,  the path is to a directory and its a absolute path
[18:26] <sipior> soupdegrace: i guess it would depend on the precise problem you're having.
[18:26] <mahpton> does anyone know if there are any good chatrooms on freenode for talking about advanced linux routing / networking type stuff?
[18:27] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: What about the thing you're executing? Are you using an absolute path to it?
[18:27] <aeon-ltd> mahpton: #linux ?
[18:27] <m0nhawk> mahpton: what you mean advanced?
[18:28] <mahpton> m0nhawk: like this kinda advanced: http://lartc.org/

[18:32] <SimonPHOENIX> hello

[18:34] <Busata> hello, I have an issue with figuring out the layout for my new keyboard... I am using a steelseries 6gv2 and it is supposed to have an US international layout, but when I compare the layout with what the ubuntu tool shows it does not correspond, any suggestions?
[18:34] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: I'm misremembering how /etc/crontab works.
[18:34] <manohar> i searched in google and placing the username will execute the cron job for that user
[18:35] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: But only in /etc/crontab. If you've installed this as a regular user crontab, you need to get rid of the username.
[18:35] <Busata> the & key is on top of the 6, instead of the 7, it is like every key got moved to the left for numbers, and some of the special characters do not correspond
[18:35] <Busata> err, to the right
[18:36] <SimonPHOENIX> anyone know good hosting on didicated server with Ubuntu?
[18:36] <rklz> hi there
[18:36] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, placing username did the trick in hardy
[18:37] <Busata> ah hmm, might have it now
[18:37] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, it was working fine with it
[18:37] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Where (or how) are you installing this crontab?
[18:37] <rklz> Hi there
[18:37] <rklz> I need some OpenVPN help
[18:37] <rklz> Please :$
[18:38] <manohar> KirkMcDonald, by editing the /etc/crontab file and placing that line
[18:38] <KirkMcDonald> Okay.
[18:39] <KirkMcDonald> manohar: Then I recommend removing the redirect and seeing if it mails you an error.

[18:53] <xangua> ubnoob: please don't do that again...ever
[18:54] <Dranik> hi all!
[18:54] <CryonicCore> The default sound device cannot be opened:
[18:54] <CryonicCore> A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.
[18:54] <CryonicCore> Virtual device sound will start disconnected.
[18:54] <_skpl> Dranik: hi
[18:54] <Dranik> how to recursively find all the *.rb files in a directory using ctags-exuberant?
[18:54] <Dranik> for building the TAGS file
[18:54] <CryonicCore> thats the error I get when starting up VMware with ubuntu
[18:55] <Progal> can i get php help here?
[18:55] <Pici> Progal: ##php would be a better place (if you mean programming, not getting it installed).
[18:55] <nemo> Dranik: er. I thought ctags did recursive builds.  but... why not find -name "*.rb" somecommand "{}" \;
[18:55] <erUSUL> Dranik: find . -name '*.rb' -exec commandhere '{}' \;
[18:55] <Dranik> CryonicCore, may be you should install vmware tools
[18:55] <ubnoob> xangua: I also have a problem with logging on to ubuntu 10.10, i get prompted twice for a password- do you know how to fix it?
[18:55] <rklz> is there a channel for OpenVPN support?
[18:56] <Dranik> nemo, yep, it has an option -R, but I can't get it working
[18:56] <nemo> ubnoob: you sure you aren't being prompted for an ssh or keyring password, for ssh agent or wifi?
[18:56] <CryonicCore> Dranik, where can I find that?
[18:56] <ubnoob> nemo: i dont know
[18:56] <nemo> Dranik: I think you should try, from past recollection, you get better tag files if it uses large bunches of files
[18:57] <nemo> Dranik: been a while since I did it but I used to do a recursive one and per-directory ones
[18:57] <ubnoob> oh...no its not for wifi
[18:57] <nemo> that way the recursive one had tags for all files under it
[18:57] <nemo> Dranik: the find command may not do that correctly, since it executes once per file
[18:57] <nemo> ubnoob: ehm. how about ssh then?
[18:57] <rklz> #openvpn
[18:57] <rklz> ##openvpn
[18:58] <nemo> ubnoob: is this a clean install?
[18:58] <CryonicCore> Dranik, I am downloading them now but how do I use them?
[18:58] <ubnoob> nemo: it was a clean install but after several updates it started happening
[18:59] <Dranik> nemo, erUSUL, thanks, find -exec ... was helpful
[18:59] <Dranik> CryonicCore, you will mount them as a CD-ROM with drivers
[18:59] <Dranik> you run them and eventually you get drivers for vmware devices
[19:00] <nemo> ubnoob: my guess is an ssh key, another possibility is you have something in your startup applications calling gksudo or somesuch
[19:00] <CryonicCore> Dranik, I am a noob at this so please be patient but how to I mount it?
[19:00] <nemo> ubnoob: system->preferences->startup applications
[19:01] <Dranik> CryonicCore, nothing special here. You open vmware menu and click item "Install VMWare tools"
[19:01] <Dranik> and it will mount the virtual drive with the drivers
[19:02] <Carx> Real men use Fedora
[19:02] <Dranik> Carx, let the holy war begin! :-)
[19:02]  * nemo coughs *slackware*
[19:02] <Carx> I was just trolling I've never used Fedora
[19:02] <Dranik> nah!
[19:03] <Dranik> LFS!!
[19:03] <Carx> I feel nasty for being a Windows user
[19:03] <nemo> I'm too lazy to use slackware anyway. I use either gentoo or ubuntu :)
[19:03] <iceroot> !ot
[19:03] <Carx> Into the offtopic!
[19:03] <CryonicCore> Dranik, well I beleive that the tools are installed cus i dont see that and I only see re-install VMware tools
[19:04] <Dranik> CryonicCore, OK then. Now, how is it going?
[19:04] <ubnoob> I'll try to reboot to see if it fixes itself after making a few changes
[19:05] <CryonicCore> The default sound device cannot be opened:
[19:05] <CryonicCore> A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.

[19:05] <CryonicCore> Dranik, still giving me this rror
[19:05] <CryonicCore> *error
[19:07] <Dranik> hmmm... weird....

[19:11] <asdas> i've tried to request free CD of ubuntu
[19:11] <asdas> but 3 days later
[19:11] <asdas> see what i got in ubuntu page
[19:11] <asdas> Demand for Ubuntu CDs is very high, and we're trying to ensure that we have enough CDs for those who really need one. We've noticed that you've already received CDs of several previous Ubuntu releases. You can help us ensure the continued availability of Ubuntu CDs by
[19:11] <asdas>     * upgrading to the new release without a CD
[19:11] <asdas>     * downloading your own CD for free
[19:11] <asdas>     * becoming an Ubuntu member by contributing to Ubuntu, and thereby becoming eligible for more CDs
[19:11] <asdas> Thanks for your support of Ubuntu!
[19:11] <FloodBot1> asdas: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[19:16] <Abinadai> asdas, do you know how to burn an .iso to a CD
[19:16] <CryonicCore> A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.
[19:16] <asdas> Soo when i'll be able to request?
[19:16] <moonraker> asdas - if u do not want to download or buy one or get one from a mag - what do u want??
[19:16] <asdas> Yes i know but i like original.
[19:17] <CryonicCore> how do I fix that on my windows host using VMware with Ubuntu?

[19:20] <kapilg> Does anyone know how to create a .sis file in ubuntu?
[19:20] <Vustom> how to copy something from the terminal?
[19:20] <Pici> Vustom: Did my suggestion not help?
[19:20] <ZeroAdam> lol NixGeek. I do see it in my places menu but it mounts as if it were external. Is that the only way? I was hoping for something more seamless like the boot drive.
[19:20] <bonjoyee> peto: logically yes..using samba/nfs
[19:20] <erUSUL> Vustom: you can copy and paste with crtl + k; crtl + y; meta + w; crtl + w etc

[19:21] <CryonicCore> need help
[19:21] <kapilg> Does anyone know how to create a .sis file in ubuntu?
[19:21] <nemo> kapilg: oh lord. symbian.  that brings back painful memories
[19:21] <g_0_0> vustom then send direct to pastebin like - ls | pastebinit
[19:21] <CryonicCore> The default sound device cannot be opened:
[19:21] <CryonicCore> A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.
[19:21] <CryonicCore> Virtual device sound will start disconnected.
[19:21] <nemo> kapilg: my sympathies
[19:21] <kapilg> U know abt it?
[19:21] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab    add it to your fstab to have it mount on boot
[19:21] <Pici> kapilg: I don't think that really is an Ubuntu question, I'd assume you'd create it however else you;d create an .sis file for a Symbian device.  Perhaps #symbian knows betteR
[19:21] <nemo> kapilg: anyway. back when I did symbian dev, I just used virtualbox, so I won't be any help
[19:21] <bonjoyee> peto: i assume you want to share the dvd drive?
[19:21] <NixGeek> ZeroAdam: thats a diffrent question, you want it to automount, not just add a harddrive!
[19:21] <CryonicCore> getting that error while stating up VMware with Ubuntu
[19:22] <ZeroAdam> NixGeek: I have done the /mnt/folder and edited the fstab file but when i "surf" to it, it still mounts into the upper left like a usb stick does
[19:22] <moonraker> kapilg - dont keep repeating th question if someone can help they will
[19:22] <kapilg> I have to repeat, its urgent
[19:22] <Pici> kapilg: No you don't.
[19:22] <Vustom> Can someone tell me what I did wrong? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/565126/
[19:22] <Pici> !patience > kapilg
[19:23] <NixGeek> ZeroAdam: I'm not getting what your saying, do you want it to automount at boot?  what?
[19:23] <Pici> Vustom: You forgot to    sudo apt-get update
[19:23] <peto> NixGeek: it is already mounted on local computer, but now I need to access it on another linux box
[19:23] <nemo> kapilg: symbian, like much mobile development, rarely has cross-platform tools.  my guess is you'll need wine / virtualbox but I can't swear to it
[19:23] <nemo> kapilg: as Pici suggested, try #symbian
[19:23] <warlock> I have a question about raid i plan on running 4 1Tb hard drives will i have any issue doing so under Ubuntu.
[19:23] <tomasm-> i am using fedora 12 right now and want to upgrade to a newer distro - i was wonderin what some of the advantages of ubuntu might be... i'm a web developer so I'm needing some dev tools/services but also want something with a nice gui and application set, etc.
[19:23] <Vustom> Pici doing that now, do I need to retype any of the codes again?
[19:23] <kapilg> ok thanks
[19:24] <nemo> kapilg: well. luckily android / pre / js2me are more cross-platform, but symbian is archaic
[19:24] <CryonicCore> NEED HELP!!!!!!
[19:24] <nemo> s/js2me/j2me/
[19:24] <Pici> Vustom: nope, just do that, and then you should be able to apt-get install.
[19:24] <CryonicCore> The default sound device cannot be opened:
[19:24] <CryonicCore> A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.
[19:24] <CryonicCore> Virtual device sound will start disconnected.
[19:24] <FloodBot1> CryonicCore: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:24] <ZeroAdam> NixGeek: Sorry yes, I do want it to automount and it actually does. But for example, when I go to my Desktop folder, it simply opens a window and shows me my files and such. But when i do this with my second hard drive, it actually mounts is and displays an icon in the upper left as a USB drive would and gives me the option to right click and unmount.
[19:24] <NixGeek> peto: by access do you mean see whats on it or change files/copy files?
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> !sound| CryonicCore
[19:24] <Vustom> Seems to be stuck at 99% [Connecting to packages.medibuntu.org (<IP_ADDRESS>)]
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> tomasm-: what tools do you use?
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> warlock: how will the raid be connected? using a hardware card or crappy fakeraid
[19:25] <NixGeek> ZeroAdam: yeah, thats what it's supposed to do, any non essential drive has an unmount option, and is shown on the desktop!  even extra partitions on the your drive with ubuntu would do that
[19:25] <peto> NixGeek: oh, I mean to play dvd-video
[19:25] <nemo> CryonicCore: are you using a VM?
[19:25] <tomasm-> ActionParsnip, well i code in php, so it would be nice to have some IDE tools.... plus gimp, inkscape, and other graphic stuff.... i dont think it's anything too different - just wondering about comparing fedora to ubuntu in general
[19:26] <Dafreak> Anyone?  I'd appreciate anytype of guidance or direction?
[19:26] <ZeroAdam> NixGeek. Ok.. that is fine thanks! I just wasn't sure and though it would just be there like /dev/sda is
[19:26] <ZeroAdam> NixGeek: Thanks!
[19:27] <NixGeek> ZeroAdam: nope, it's supposed to do that!  and your welcome!
[19:27] <jotgroup> Epson Office BX300F scanner not working, any ideas?
[19:27] <Pici> Dafreak: Is this a server?
[19:27] <moonraker> Dafreak - what help  be specific
[19:27] <Jeruvy> Dafreak: feel free to repeat your question, but not too often please.
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> tomasm-: there are lots of IDEs in ubuntu
[19:27] <Dafreak> I'm in a little bit of a panic.  I did apt upgrade, then reboot and it's now stuck at 4 errors.  I've searched all over the internet and tried what seems like everything.  Can someone help?  I can paste the errors I typed out.
[19:27] <Dafreak> The errors are here:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/565121/
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> !ide | tomasm-
[19:27] <erUSUL> Dafreak: try to mount the array from a livecd to make sure everyhing is ok
[19:27] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: you can change its mount point and it will act a bit different. for instance use /mnt/newdrive and it will not show on the desktop, at all.
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> warlock: so fakeraid :(   should be ok
[19:28] <NixGeek> peto: the easiest way would be to just VNC to the computer, or rip it, share it over the network, and stream it
[19:28] <Abinadai> I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction.  My laptop HP Simple Pass fingerprint reader works great in windows 7, but not in Maverick.
[19:28] <bananas> can anyone see this?
[19:28] <warlock> @actionparsnip I could get a raid card
[19:28] <Pici> bananas: Yes sir.
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: add this to /etc/hosts                <IP_ADDRESS>          packages.medibuntu.org
[19:29] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: I did that with my fstab file but it still gave me the desktop icon.
[19:29] <bananas> awesome: I was wondering if there was a way to update to 11.04 through a ppa of some sort?
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: should be ok then
[19:29] <MtrPanda> where can i get help with evolution?
[19:29] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: what did you use as its mount point?
[19:29] <Pici> bananas: Check the topic of #ubuntu+1, thats the Natty/11.04 channel.
[19:29] <tomasm-> ActionParsnip, does ubuntu have a comparable package repository compared to fedora? i know some distros like to be stripped down, forcing you to install from source individually
[19:29] <arjen__> check
[19:29] <bananas> thanks!
[19:29] <Vustom> ActionParsnip how to get there? I'm new to Ubuntu
[19:29] <Jeruvy> MtrPanda: For Ubuntu you can ask here, or you can ask in #evolution
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> warlock: makes it faster but some cards can be a pain, for cheap easy raid, softraid is fine.For anything under any sort of strain i'd advise a card
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
[19:30] <tomasm-> ActionParsnip, and also multimedia - ie movies, mp3's, etc..
[19:30] <peto> bonjoyee:yes,  I need to play dvd-video
[19:30] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: /dev/sdb1 /media/storage defaults 0 0
[19:30] <schnuffle> warlock: I second that, don't use fakeraid, use softwareraid or a real hardware raid
[19:30] <NixGeek> peto: or you could setup vnc to stream it, and then open the stream with vnc on another computer
[19:30] <Vustom> Action where abouts do I put the line?
[19:30] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: is it ext3 or ext4?
[19:30] <danub> hey all. got an ssh question. I have an old system with openssh v1 installed. On my laptop, I have openssh v2 installed. can I add a ssh v2 generated key to the v1 ssh authorized keys and be able to connect?
[19:30] <Vustom> at the bottom?
[19:30] <ZeroAdam> ext4
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> tomasm-: there is a handy pair of packages which will pull in pretty much all you can need:  ubuntu-restricted-extras    and by adding the medibuntu repo: w32codecs
[19:30] <ZeroAdam> sorry left that part out
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> !dvd | peto
[19:31] <Vustom> ActionParsnip is it safe to put <IP_ADDRESS>          packages.medibuntu.org in there?
[19:31] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: you could change the mount point to /mnt/storage  and it will not show on the desktop, also i would change the last 0 to a 2
[19:31] <bonjoyee> peto: if you can mount the folder(ie the dvd drive) using nfs/samba then you can play the dvd folder using vlc or other player that supports playing a dvd structure!
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/medibuntu/+bug/565810    reply #12
[19:31] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: Thanks i'll try that!
[19:31] <SoulRaven> have any ideea whay racoon can't pass the phane 1 on a VPN tunneling?  ERROR: phase2 negotiation failed due to time up waiting for phase1.
[19:32] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: you would need to create the mount point of course. you can make these changes and have it mount without restarting.
[19:32] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: chmod 600 on the mount point right?
[19:33] <bonjoyee> peto: so your first target is to get /media/cdrom0 on the remote machine mounted to some folder on your local machine...via nfs/samba(smbfs)
[19:33] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: no, just sudo mkdir /mnt/storage and the options you use in fstab will determine permissions. in your case, defaults, will be fine.
[19:33] <schnuffle> SoulRaven: different proposals for phase 1?
[19:33] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: great, thanks!
[19:33] <SoulRaven> schnuffle: no, is ok on the buth side
[19:33] <MtrPanda> where can i get help with evolution?
[19:34] <SoulRaven> schnuffle: i have to use nat_transversal
[19:34] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: i actually have my mount points owned by me. sudo chown $USER /mnt/storage ..you can use that command and it will own it by your user
[19:34] <Vustom> Action http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/565132/
[19:34] <Vustom> ?
[19:34] <schnuffle> SoulRaven: oooh, thats another beast :)
[19:34] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: got it!
[19:34] <Jeruvy> MtrPanda: For Ubuntu you can ask here, or you can ask in #evolution.
[19:35] <MtrPanda> #evolution is empty
[19:35] <schnuffle> SoulRaven: do you use port forwarding?
[19:35] <SoulRaven> schnuffle: DEBUG: resend phase1 packet 1c3302baa4e23ca6:0000000000000000
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update
[19:35] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: once you've made the chagnes in fstab, unmount the drive. then type sudo mount -a  ..this will mount anything in fstab that is not currently mounted.
[19:35] <MtrPanda> it wont get mail. teh send/receive tab is shaded out
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: the medibuntu keyring authenticates the repo
[19:35] <Jeruvy> MtrPanda: Have you enabled 'work offline'?
[19:36] <SoulRaven> schnuffle: yes, 500, 50 and 4500 UDP
[19:36] <Vustom> Action should I take the line out of etc/hosts now?
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: you would have found that here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[19:36] <MtrPanda> will look
[19:36] <Vustom> since it's upated
[19:36] <vivek_> ChanServ: i have only root and swap area, is ir necessary that i need to create boot also ?
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Vustom: no as you need it to connect to the server to download packages
[19:36] <vivek_> Jeruvy: i have only root and swap area, is ir necessary that i need to create boot also ?
[19:36] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: that was exactly it! thanks for all your help. It even pulled out of my places menu as "250 GB Filesystem"  Perfect!!!!
[19:36] <tomasm-> is there much difference between ubuntu desktop edition and server edition? I am doing php development and at least need apache, dns, mail, etc servers available on the box
[19:36] <Vustom> So now everytime I want to apt-get update I need to type sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update?
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> vivek_: it's not required,chanserv isn't a user
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> tomasm-: desktop has a desktop, server doesn't and is also optomised for background processes
[19:37] <MtrPanda> DUH!   I must have clicked it unknowingly >>> MANY THANKS
[19:37] <Pici> tomasm-: server has no graphical environment installed, and a text-based installer as well.
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> tomasm-: if you want a mouse based interface to the system, install the desktop
[19:37] <MtrPanda> OOPS :)
[19:37] <vivek_> ActionParsnip: t will not create any problem know?
[19:37] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: you're welcome. you can add it back to Places menu if you want.
[19:37] <Jeruvy> MtrPanda: :)
[19:37] <tomasm-> k, thanks
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> vivek_: none, i've never used a seperate /boot
[19:38] <ZeroAdam> bastidrazor: No, i like it gone from there, it was throwing me off visually. Thanks again!!
[19:38] <MtrPanda> is there any way to stop it from closing down the screen ever 10 minutes or so and demandingthe unlock password again ?
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> nice gratitude from vivek_
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> :(
[19:38] <tomasm-> ActionParsnip, now if i have an AMDx64 chip, should i still get the 32-bit version?
[19:39] <bastidrazor> ZeroAdam: good deal. you're welcome.
