[00:01] <joo_> Hey guys, I recently bought a geforce GTX 460 that doesn't require passthrough yet i still can't get audio to work via hdmi. I compiled and installed the latest ALSA, and the card still doesn't show in the list.
[00:01] <zeleftikam> jjb123» ah. my machine hangs at boot like that, waiting for a CD, if i've got the wrong drive selected. is there a key you can hold down at boot to bring up a screen to select a boot drive?
[00:02] <kisuke> digitalfiz, dir or ls <directory>
[00:02] <kisuke> joo_, that is a video card, not an audio card
[00:02] <joo_> WIth onboard audio.

[00:03] <zeleftikam> bint» there is a pretty good vnc server that ships with Ubuntu, you can enable it under Screen Sharing or some such thing in the preferences
[00:03] <kisuke> joo_, check for restricted drivers
[00:03] <baba> jrib, ok, i restarted and stuff
[00:03] <joo_> I've got the latest nvidia drivers and the latest ALSA. This isn't a driver issue.

[00:07] <aeon-ltd> lxLee: say wut?
[00:07] <Fendaril> ok where is terminfo located on ubuntu
[00:07] <aeon-ltd> baba: LAMP = apache mysql php/perl
[00:08] <Fendaril> NewBuntu:Be patient. People will be less likely to help you if you repeadtly try to grieve people by spamming your question

[00:11] <bint> why shouldn't it?
[00:11] <DIL> NewBuntu, is your smb.conf stating the network
[00:11] <bint> i have a gui
[00:11] <bint> its called: fluxbox

[00:12] <NewBuntu> DIL: What do you mean? I think smb.conf has been installed from Synaptic Package Manager
[00:12] <cablop> bint... you don't use vnc to access a server... you use ssh or a remote tty...

[00:18] <datta> zeleftikam: what do you use?
[00:19] <aeon-ltd> NewBuntu: cat = concatentate i.e merge files although in can be used for what aetaric and DIL said
[00:19] <aetaric> DIL: no, it prints a file to STDOUT...screen is a program
[00:19] <zeleftikam> datta» nothing, i switched back to Mac OS X so i could print again =D bad answer. sorry
[00:19] <aetaric> but yes concatenate is right....
[00:19] <datta> cause my officejet is getting the size of the scans different

[00:24] <freezway> hey, im trying to get lmms to work well, but 4.5.0 crashed so i found a 4.7.0 ppa and am using it now. That fixed the crashes. I also have experienced bad latency so i started using jack, but then my sound quality goes bad and I can't get rid of weird pops and beats when i play chords. Anyone wanna help. I have an integrated sound card
[00:25] <NewBuntu> DIL: The terminal returned the following: # Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
[00:25] <NewBuntu>    workgroup = WORKGROUP
[00:26] <NewBuntu> DIL:  I didn't change Windows 7 workgroup name
[00:27] <NewBuntu> DIL: so surely that should match with the workgroup name of my ubuntu laptop
[00:27] <DIL> NewBuntu, which is workgroup? win7 and samba has issues
[00:28] <NewBuntu> DIL: What do you mean issues? In what way..?
[00:28] <dmex> NewBuntu: samba doesnt support NTMLv2 well
[00:28] <DIL> NewBuntu, shares not being seen
[00:28] <dougb_freebsd> IIRC the default workgroup name in windows 7 was not "WORKGROUP" you might want to check that on the windows 7 box

[00:28] <dmex> NTLM^
[00:28] <aaroninfidel> dougb_freebsd: well right now I've mostly been developing websites, but I wanted to get into building my own MMO with 2d sprites. and I looked into node.js and socket.io and after reading a few lines of documentation I just felt really overwhelmed and confused.
[00:28] <Fendaril> How do I change it back
[00:29] <Fendaril> This is the default one that comes with ubuntu
[00:29] <DIL> NewBuntu, see message from dougb_freebsd
[00:29] <dougb_freebsd> aaroninfidel: by MMO do you mean Massively Muliplayer Online game?
[00:29] <aaroninfidel> dougb_freebsd: yes.
[00:29] <NewBuntu> DIL and dmex: Does that mean that it isn't possible to copy data across network by accessing files from other Windows machines?
[00:29] <dougb_freebsd> If so, you're going to need to learn C++
[00:29] <Josesordo> Hello all
[00:30] <dougb_freebsd> .... so better to start with good books on C++, rather than trying to learn concepts from other languages, that'll just confuse you
[00:30] <Fendaril> dougb_freebsd:he should learn NASM since it's 100x easier then c++ right?
[00:30] <Josesordo> I have a question, I just installed ubuntu 10.04 64bits again and I want to know if is neccesary to install driver for ATI HD Radeon 2600 to use compiz?
[00:30] <DIL> NewBuntu, i have several boxes on my network xp is fine having issues with win7
[00:31] <dougb_freebsd> Fendaril: evil :)
[00:31] <dmex> NewBuntu: type secpol.msc into your win7 start-menu searchbox
[00:31] <aeon-ltd> Josesordo: yes most likely, plug and play isn't that good yet
[00:31] <NewBuntu> DIL: no msg received from doug_freebsd
[00:31] <edju> Running Kubuntu Lucid and trying to get the system to recognize a 1st gen iphone.   I can mount it w/ ifuse, but that's it.  Neither Amarok nor Rhythmbox recognize it.  I've tried searching, but all I can find are posts that it "just works."  Well, not here.  Any hints, pointers, work-arounds, etc. appreciated.
[00:31] <dmex> NewBuntu: Go to: Local Policies > Security Options and then find "Network Security: LAN Manager" authentication level. Once there, change the Setting from "Send NTLMv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM -- use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated."
[00:32] <Josesordo> so, what drivers I install the one that ubuntu download for me or the one from ati.com?
[00:32] <NewBuntu> dmex: You mean in Wind7 laptop?
[00:33] <whiterabbit1337> Jose, Have you tried using Compiz before downloading any drivers?
[00:33] <dmex> NewBuntu: yes
[00:34] <aaroninfidel> dougb_freebsd: but if the server is going to be written in node.js do you still think it's a good idea to learn C++ ? or do you mean I should learn C++ because it'll allow me to understand the core concepts of programming?
[00:34] <dmex> NewBuntu: type secpol.msc into your win7 start-menu searchbox, open it and goto Local Policies > Security Options
[00:34] <dougb_freebsd> aaroninfidel: it makes no sense to write an MMO server in node.js
[00:35] <klappi> dougb_freebsd: and why so?
[00:35] <dougb_freebsd> but if you want to learn node.js, learn node.js ... or maybe I'm not understanding your question :)
[00:35] <aaroninfidel> dougb_freebsd: I heard it was a good idea because it's no-blocking
[00:36] <dougb_freebsd> klappi: because of the whole concept of "massively multiplayer"  ... javascript doesn't scale on the "massively" OR the "multiplayer" levels
, no yet

[00:38] <NewBuntu> dmex: currently the security setting is not defined for Network Security: LAN Manager
[00:39] <dmex> NewBuntu: the undefined or default is "Send NTLMv2 response only", you must change it to "Send LM & NTLM -- use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated."

[00:43] <drem> i have an ATI Radeon Xpress 200M
[00:43] <lumos> miro - but thats if i want to be su on the livecd, because its ubuntu@ubuntu, i want lumos@lumos, access to my hardrive
[00:44] <freezway> ok, go Systrem>Admin>Hardware drivers
[00:44] <freezway> see if it shows up
[00:44] <drem> it does not show up
[00:44] <datta> I am trying to move some files into /usr/share/
[00:44] <dmex> NewBuntu: just click Places on the top ubuntu menu then Network, then it will show your win7 box
[00:44] <freezway> drem are there drivers on ati'
[00:44] <freezway> s website
[00:45] <datta> I heard that you can do that by unlocking all the file managers but how is that possible?
[00:45] <tiq> is there a way to make the system ask for root password when entering single user mode?
[00:45] <drem> yes but they send me to a third party to download

[00:46] <drem> 32 bit
[00:46] <drem> I am on a gateway laptop if that helps also
[00:46] <dmex> NewBuntu: yes?
[00:46] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: I don't think you understand how the livecd works :)
[00:46] <freezway> drem, there dont appear to be proprietary drivers... =(
[00:46] <freezway> drem, i can see if i can find beta ones... 1 sec
[00:46] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: while you're booted on the livecd, click Places on the menu, and then select the drive where the files you want to edit are located
[00:47] <NewBuntu> dremx: Clicking on this option results in the error msg
[00:47] <NewBuntu> failed to mount etc etc
[00:47] <drem> ok thank you I'll wait

[00:48] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: they are read only's
[00:48] <dougb_freebsd> well, what happens when you try to edit them?
[00:48] <billy_> I'm looking for the config files that control how nautilus works with internal and external drives?
[00:48] <dmex> NewBuntu: whats the exact error? you shouldnt get a mount error from browsing either.
[00:48] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: i need to rename it, but its a failsage
[00:48] <lumos> safe*
[00:49] <freezway> drem, you might try the xpress 200 drivers, but I dont think they'll work... backup first if you do... this could get messy
[00:49] <NewBuntu> dremx: Dialogue box which says: Unable to mount location. Failed to retrieve share list from server

[00:49] <drem> ha! ok thank you.
[00:50] <drem> I don't think I will hassle with it because I just wanted to install the driver to change effects of my desktop and such
[00:50] <datta> I am trying to transfer a directory from desktop to usr/share
[00:50] <freezway> drem, I honestly dont think it will work, but its worth a try...
[00:50] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: but i cant, its expecting to log me on at ubuntu@ubuntu, when i need to log on for lumos. it says authentithication failure
[00:50] <freezway> drem, ok...
[00:50] <Sunderphon> is there an alternative to notify-osd I can use? The enforced expiry time (10 seconds for a 1 word notification? Really?) is ridiculous
[00:50] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: you can't log in as your normal user on the livecd
[00:51] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: how would i do that?
[00:51] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: oh sorry i see
[00:51] <dmex> NewBuntu: do you have cable or adsl?
[00:51] <drem> freezway, I am guessing the reason why I can't apply themes with emerald or use effects with compiz is because I do not have my driver installed right?
[00:51] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: then how can i change this file?
[00:52] <NewBuntu> dremx: adsl.  Couldn't be that Ubuntu is an upgrade from 8.04 to 9.10 to 10.04.  Would a fresh install resolve the issue
[00:52] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: when you open a terminal and type 'su root' what happens?
[00:52] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: authentithication failure
[00:52] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: after it asks for pw
[00:53] <dougb_freebsd> what happens if you just type 'su'
[00:53] <dmex> NewBuntu: yes
[00:53] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: same
[00:53] <dougb_freebsd> are you sure you're booted into the livecd ?
[00:53] <NewBuntu> dmex: What has the upgrade not fixed the problem?
[00:54] <dougb_freebsd> and if so, what version?
[00:54] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: yes
[00:54] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: ubuntu 9.1
[00:54] <drem> I am guessing the reason why I can't apply themes with emerald or use effects with compiz is because I do not have my driver installed right?
[00:54] <dmex> NewBuntu: its probably causing the problem using old configuration files.
[00:54] <zzzed__> dougb_freebsd, lumos: it 'sudo su', will give you UID=0, which is root for all filesystems, but if you don't understand this, you probably shouldn't do it
[00:55] <freezway> drem, most likely yes
[00:55] <dougb_freebsd> ok, you might try burning a 10.04 version then, what I'm describing worked fine for me with the 10.04 livecd
[00:55] <NewBuntu> dmex: I am considering edubuntu dvd copy.  How is this comparing to Ubuntu
[00:55] <drem> freezway, thank you for your help
[00:55] <datta> why does not hp-toolbox open anything?
[00:55] <lumos> zzzed__: my brother told me i need to rename the file, to fix my graphics
[00:55] <datta> I went to /usr/bin/hp-toolbox and still the file there does not open anything at all
[00:55] <lumos> zzzed__: he wont help me though :(
[00:55] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: ok, what happens if you type 'sudo su'
[00:55] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: ok thanks, i think i might have some more updated live cd;s
[00:55] <freezway> drem, you're welcome, sorry theres no driver
[00:56] <dmex> NewBuntu: an educational build?
[00:56] <zzzed__> lumos, well to get root permissions 'sudo su'
[00:56] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: i already told you, it asks for pass word then authentithication failure
[00:56] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: that command that zzzed__ suggested is different from the ones I suggested
[00:56] <BiggFREE> Try sudo su -
[00:56] <datta> no gui, in terminal it does not stay for much long
[00:56] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: how is it?
[00:57] <billy_> bye folks - guess i'll just use windows - it's not broken by design
[00:57] <NewBuntu> dmex: I heard you can add this on top of ubuntu and specify whether to use either at logon screen
[00:57] <lumos> billy_: FUUUUUUUUUUu
[00:57] <lumos> zzzed__: i have already tried this
[00:58] <snow_usa> lumos,

[00:58] <snow_usa> u?bu`ntu?
[00:58] <dougb_freebsd> lumos: ok, try a newer cd then
[00:58] <snow_usa> dougb_freebsd, do you know u?bu`ntu?
[00:58] <lumos> dougb_freebsd: ok thanks
[00:59] <klappi> my name is klappi and i pronounce ubuntu as ubuntu
[00:59] <snow_usa> klappi, no, but there should be some annotations
[00:59] <snow_usa> like : u`tu'ntu`
[00:59] <snow_usa> or u?bu`ntu?
[00:59] <n0a1ias> how do i get to a document in a .ssh folder in my home directory

[00:59] <freezway> hey, im trying to get lmms to work well, but 4.5.0 crashed so i found a 4.7.0 ppa and am using it now. That fixed the crashes. I also have experienced bad latency so i started using jack, but then my sound quality goes bad and I can't get rid of weird pops and beats when i play chords. Anyone wanna help. I have an integrated sound card
[01:00] <lumos> mi legas #ubuntu
[01:00] <dmex> NewBuntu: I dont know if you can or not, would be a question for everyone else.
[01:00] <snow_usa> uh
[01:00] <snow_usa> yeah
[01:00] <chrysanthemum> n0a1ias: In terminal, ls -a will show you all files in a folder, you can then just cd to it..
[01:01] <klappi> snow_usa: ùbúntú ?
[01:01] <no_u0>  anyone have a copy of npwrapper.libflashplayer.so. i deleted mine, and i cant find another copy without downloading random packages
[01:01] <snow_usa> yeah
[01:01] <snow_usa> klappi, how can you write that ?
[01:01] <tiq> lumos: add "single" as a kernel parameter when pressing "e" in your grub menu, and you'll get command line root without password prompts
[01:01] <snow_usa> ủbùntu
[01:01] <Fendaril> How do you grep a package list
[01:01] <snow_usa> or úbủntù

[01:03] <kisuke> dominicdinada, in a terminal ues top to find the program and kill to kill it
[01:03] <chrysanthemum> n0a1ias: well you can look at it with "less [filename]", or edit it with something like "vim [filename]"

[01:04] <sinnedam> ok, this is a stupid question, but i just installed KDE for ubuntu how the heck do you shut down? it isnt an option under "leave"

[01:05] <bsod1> what is the name of the display on right top corner in gnome that show us when our battrery is low or some other warnings *sorry for my english*
[01:05] <kisuke> bsod1, its the equivilant of the windows systray, i dont recall the name of it in gnome atm

[01:09] <BiggFREE> red2kic: Thanks
[01:09] <dad_> how to add gconfig-editor
[01:09] <KE1HA> BiggFREE, -i lists the inode id's, do a df -i  then a df -hT and not thediffrence.
[01:10] <ComradeHaz`> Hey guys, how do I make my system start without starting a desktop environment? (ie just boot to tty1)
[01:10] <Guest78571> how to add gconfig-editor
[01:10] <sinnedam> anybody? how can i shut down or restart from GUI in KDE..the "leave" menu doesnt list it
[01:10] <zerothis> Guest78571: sudo apt-get install gconfig-editor
[01:10] <ComradeHaz`> sinnedam, does Alt+f2 bring anything up?
[01:11] <sinnedam> brings up the run menu
[01:11] <ComradeHaz`> run a konsole
[01:11] <ComradeHaz`> sudo reboot.
[01:11] <sinnedam> but there is no GUI option?
[01:11] <ComradeHaz`> or sudo halt to turn off.
[01:11] <ComradeHaz`> well, sure.
[01:11] <zzzed__> zerothis, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1320222&highlight=libcupsys2
[01:12] <ComradeHaz`> Sorry, I thiught you were saying it had temporarilly dissapeared.
[01:12] <sinnedam> no its not under that menu at all
[01:12] <cablop> i got tired with this alternate installer, sigh :(
[01:12] <ComradeHaz`> it's under teh K in bottom left
[01:12] <ComradeHaz`> then to the right hand 'tab'
[01:12] <BiggFREE> KE1HA: Thanks ... I just took a look at man df.
[01:12] <kyan> How can I generate a list of installed packages and their versions?
[01:12] <sinnedam> yeah right hand tab is "leave
[01:12] <sinnedam> when i click that
[01:12] <sinnedam> there is no option to shut down or restart
[01:12] <sinnedam> just log off
[01:12] <maco> sinnedam: are you by chance not only person logged in or not an admin?
[01:13] <sinnedam> no
[01:13] <cablop> it's giving me this failure while configuring required packages error... is there a known issue with the laternate package in lucid? i checked the disk, it is ok
[01:13] <ComradeHaz`> I see. If you right click you can customize that.
[01:13] <red2kic> !clone | kyan
[01:13] <n0a1ias> how do i use the file manager to get in a .ssh directory?
[01:13] <ComradeHaz`> n0a1ias, what do you mean?
[01:13] <Guest78571> zerothis E: Invalid operation gconfig-editor
[01:14] <ComradeHaz`> you mean access a remote directoy using ssh n0a1ias?
[01:14] <KE1HA> n0a1ias, open Places,Home Folder, then View >> Show Hidden Files
[01:15] <n0a1ias> no, i put the pub key in a folder called .ssh, now i need the key, but i neet to open the file and change the key, so i cant use terminal
[01:15] <KE1HA> n0a1ias, then navigate to .ssh
[01:15] <kyan> Well, my goal is not to clone it but to be able to manually check to see if I have the latest versions, because I broke apt-get.
[01:15] <zerothis> Guest78571: did you type the whole thing or forget "install"? sudo apt-get install gconfig-editor
[01:15] <n0a1ias> thanks KE1HA

[01:17] <LibertyZero> Guest78571: There is no such thing as gconfig-editor. Do you mean gconf-editor?
[01:17] <sinnedam> hhmm still cant figure this out
[01:18] <LibertyZero> sinnedam: if you start kde through gdm you won't be able to shut down through kde directly, because the session management doesn't play along...
[01:18] <Guest78571> LibertyZero  gettin tired   thx
[01:19] <sinnedam> oh...so is there a way i can change that?

[01:24] <[thor]> Guest78571: once the appropriate dock is highlighted, select the position with the dropdown menu ( Top/Bottom/Left/Right )
[01:25] <kyan> bonez2046 : No idea, sorry. For that I just boot Window$ in a vm and use omnipage SE.
[01:26] <kyan> It might run with WINE though. I haven't tried.
[01:26] <delinquentme> hey all im using the search tool in ubuntu ... and looking to find a file that has BOTH "jquery" and "10px" in it ... the search STRING that id be using would simply be "jquery 10px" ... or will that only return a hit where the term matches exactly "jquery 10px"
[01:26] <kyan> (Omnipage SE is some adware that comes packaged with canon scanners, IIRC.)
[01:27] <Guest78571> [thor] ok now i got it..  also if I empty a dock y cant I get rid of it.. or how do i get rid of it?
[01:27] <[thor]> Guest78571: sorry, i don't know the answer to that one
[01:28] <Guest78571> I have added a dock to the desktop and don't want it.. how do I remove it in 10.04
[01:28] <jMyles> I am at my wits end with the simple task of getting a port to forward to another computer (ubuntu server)
[01:28] <kyan> bonez2046 : If you want to slow your computer with that little bit of trialware, here's a link : http://wcarchive.cdrom.com/pub/scansoft/Canon_Svu_v20.zip )
[01:29] <ClayG> how can i capture the sound that i am hearing through my laptops speakers?
[01:29] <Craig_Dem> Uninstall the dock in synaptic.
[01:29] <ClayG> something universal that would grab the sound from a youtube video or even internet radio?
[01:31] <NewBuntu> Is it true that you can add KDE to the system and keep both Gnome and KDE installed?
[01:32] <maco> NewBuntu: yes
[01:32] <Guest78571> [thor]  docky, select dock, delete is on the bottom of choices.. Can you tell me how to rearrange the icons
[01:32] <maco> NewBuntu: just install the kubuntu-desktop package. the login screen lets you choose which to login to
[01:32] <geirha> ClayG: Put a tape-recorder next to the speakers and hit record.
[01:32] <cromag> what happens if i set a resolution which is not suitable for my screen and press apply ? - will it come back after x seconds if i dont hit "ok" or somthing ?
[01:32] <[thor]> Guest78571: drag em around
[01:32] <yowshi> how do i turn alt + ctrl + backspace back on?
[01:32] <NewBuntu> maco: how do I add it?
[01:32] <[thor]> Guest78571: dragging and dropping off the dock space will remove them from the dock
[01:32] <ClayG> geirha, looking for an application but that is a good idea, thanks for your suggestion
[01:32] <zzzed__> !jack | ClayG
[01:33] <maco> NewBuntu: install the kubuntu-desktop package
[01:33] <maco> NewBuntu: either "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" or use synaptic or whatever

[01:33] <Guest78571> [thor]  yea but how to move them on the dock.. rearrange the order?
[01:34] <yowshi> how do i turn alt + ctrl + backspace back on?
[01:34] <Guest78571> [thor] some move and some dont
[01:34] <dclake> can anyone help
[01:34] <geirha> ClayG: That's what we did in the old days anyway :)
[01:34] <[thor]> Guest78571: some are dock applets, some are program helpers, and some are shortcuts
[01:34] <zzzed__> yowshi, try alt+sysreq+k
[01:35] <yowshi> zzzed__: whats sysreq?
[01:35] <[thor]> Guest78571: they can only be arranged in their major groups.. so shortcuts will appear on the left, applets in the middle, and helpers on the right
[01:35] <dominicdinada> ok sorry had to go do something but i don't see anything that looks like a zombie. could SSH or Samba or Webmin or whatever be a zombie ? i will pastebin my results to check
[01:35] <cromag> what happens if i set a resolution which is not suitable for my screen and press apply ? - will it come back after x seconds if i dont hit "ok" or somthing ? or will it write to the xorg conf and
[01:35] <zzzed__> yowshi, its the print screen button
[01:35] <geirha> yowshi: One of those keys in the top right of the keyboard, that you never/rarely use.
[01:35] <dclake> I seem to be missing one of the social media features in the panel
[01:35] <ClayG> how can i capture the sound that i am hearing through my laptops speakers?

[01:37] <Scrumps> Alright, so, I seem to be running into issues with torrent clients, samba, and fileshares.  I am trying to get Ktorrent/utorrent (wine), and transmission to save all the torrents it downloads on a file share under a windows file system. It can see the share, open the share, but it can't create any files or directories. I don
[01:37] <Scrumps> t know what is wrong.
[01:37] <LibertyZero> ClayG: http://www.moritzmolch.de/2010/06/26/capturing-pulseaudio-output-to-file/
[01:38] <Scrumps> I have the share mounted under /mnt/samba/
[01:38] <pseudosmart> I am running 10.04 on a sony vaio VPCF115FM, and my desktop is bigger than my screen, no matter what resolution I try. Any suggestions?
[01:38] <ClayG> LibertyZero, trying sound recorder way but will try that after ~ http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4391051&postcount=3
[01:38] <dominicdinada> Scrumps: I think torrent and other filesharing is off topic here
[01:38] <jMyles> If anybody is keen with iptables, can you look at my rules and tell me why I am not forwarding packets properly? http://pastebin.com/mbVGzZbN
[01:38] <Scrumps> It automounts using fstab and the login details that point to the share are for the Administrator, so it shouldn't have any issue being aable to create a folder or files.

[01:40] <dclake> has anyone lost the social menu in ubuntu or how to restore it?
[01:40] <dominicdinada> !samba | scrumps
[01:40] <jefinc> I loaded ubuntu netbook edition onto a LGX120 and it is extremely slow, any suggestions?
[01:40] <dominicdinada> dclake: ubuntu one you mean ?
[01:41] <dclake> you know the menu with your status and you can tweet from it
[01:41] <dclake> that one
[01:41] <tt33l3r> Having a problem with "Keep Aligned" setting on gnome changing back to set on every reboot. Anyone know how to fix this?
[01:41] <Scrumps> dominicdinada, I don't see anything about torrents/filesharing being against the channel rules or code of conduct on the wiki.
[01:41] <jMyles> dclake: Sounds like gwibber stopped on you
[01:41] <pseudosmart> Well, I restarted X, but no dice
[01:41] <dominicdinada> dclake: no i don't know that one. I don't tweeter
[01:42] <jMyles> dclake: You can run it again from applications -=> internet
[01:42] <jefinc> dclake: if you right click on the panel and click on add, the one you are looking for is "Indicator Applet Session"
[01:42] <pseudosmart> and I have tried xrandr to add resolutions, but that hasn't worked either
[01:42] <Izinucs> Scrumps: it's not.. and really your question deals with samba.. but most likely it might be a windows issue since you can see the windows share but can't save..
[01:42] <savid> Hi, I need to check in some code with svn,  and I'm getting this:   "Password for '(null)' GNOME keyring:" .    I've never seen it before, and my normal password does not work with it.  What's causing this?
[01:42] <dclake> gwibber is running but I still dont have the box for my posts
[01:42] <pseudosmart> should I purchase the support from canonincal to figure this out? Is it worth it?
[01:42] <jefinc> dclake: see above ^^
[01:43] <pseudosmart> nobody on the forums has been able to figure it out either
[01:43] <jMyles> pseudosmart: I have no idea, but I'm curious about your issue.  What do you mean "too big"?
[01:43] <Josesordo> What is more cute or beatiful: Emerald or GTK Windows decorator?
[01:43] <Izinucs> pseudosmart: could be that the wrong driver is loaded for your card.. what do you have?
[01:44] <pseudosmart> the screen is cut off on the right side and the bottom of the display
[01:44] <pseudosmart> so I don't see the panel at the bottom of the screen, and the right side of the top panel is cut off
[01:44] <Scrumps> Izinucs, well, that is what I thought... so, I set the permissions for the drive temporarily to "Everyone" and then tried again, it still didn't work. So, that is why I came here, but, I will try samba.
[01:44] <dclake> I reloaded the indicator applet session b ut it does not have the text box
[01:45] <savid> I'm aslo getting "Error communicating with gnome-keyring-daemon" when trying to run seahorse.  Any idea what's going on here?
[01:45] <jefinc> dclake: have you tried logging off/on ?
[01:45] <dclake> yeah ..and rebooting
[01:45] <Izinucs> Scrumps: drive permissions on the windows machine probably isn't the issue.. it's more in line with it's internal permissions.. win pro is easier.. win home isn't
[01:46] <Scrumps> Izinucs, it is Windows Server 2008 R2.
[01:46] <jefinc> dclake: you could try restarting X since reloading the indicator applet sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:46] <Scrumps> Owernship of the drive, sharing, and file permissions are set to Everyone.
[01:46] <dclake> ok
[01:46] <dclake> trying
[01:46] <Izinucs> Scrumps: ah.. then there should be an easy way to do this.. check in ##windows.
[01:47] <Izinucs> Scrumps: might also be that you need to add the server name to samba as a valid user
[01:47] <savid> Anyone have any idea?  I really need to check in this code...
[01:48] <Scrumps> Izinucs, what do you mean? Add the server name to samba? Under the samba config file?
[01:48] <dclake> that didnt work
[01:48] <maco> savid: kill the seahorse-agent and just let normal ssh-agent handle it?
[01:49] <Izinucs> Scrumps: if you added samba to your system and not just smbfs then typically samba has it's own method of registering users and passwords.. first thing you should do is add yourself as the user on the machine...
[01:49] <MarkSS> hey all
[01:49] <Scrumps> Izinucs, smbfs is installed and added.
[01:49] <pseudosmart> Does anyone have any thoughts on whether or not the canonical $140 support is worth it, I haven't been able to find a solution to my problem here or in the forums?
[01:50] <Izinucs> Scrumps: this might help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[01:50] <dclake> I have the menu but not the text box
[01:50] <poi77> pseudosmart: what is the issue
[01:51] <pseudosmart> my desktop is bigger than my screen, so it is cut off on the right side and the bottom
[01:51] <pseudosmart> I have tried installing proprietary NVIDIA drivers, I have tried xrandr, but nothing seems to work
[01:51] <Scrumps> So... I should try replacing smbfs with cifs?
[01:52] <dominicdinada> pseudosmart: have you tried adjusting your monitor :O
[01:52] <Scrumps> As my current fstab folder looks like that exactly, except I am using smbfs instead of cifs.
[01:52] <Izinucs> pseudosmart: ah ha.. did the nvidia drivers install totally and correctly? if so you might also install nvidia-settings.. go there and set the resolution
[01:52] <HermanDE> anybody know of Openssh supports dns srv records?
[01:53] <poi77> pseudosmart: in my experience nvidia-settings works
[01:53] <Izinucs> HermanDE: in /etc/ssh/sshd_config there is a line at the bottom about dns.. check it out
[01:53] <savid> marco, nope -- still doesn't work.  Any other ideas?  How can I just make SVN use normal authentication?   It's always worked for me before -- just all of the sudden stopped working
[01:53] <Fendaril> man how do you get the xterm menu
[01:53] <MarkSS> I restarted my computer and now I am asked to start with low graphics mode and when I hit okay it takes me to a set of menus.  Nothing in those menus will fix my problem though.  What can I do?
[01:53] <savid> maco ^
[01:53] <pseudosmart> is nvidia-settings an application I can install? I'm kind of new at this
[01:54] <geirha> Fendaril: xterm doesn't have a menu
[01:54] <HermanDE> Izinucs, Thanks.
[01:54] <Izinucs> pseudosmart: yes.. sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings.. then you'll find it in system>Admin>Nvidia something
[01:54] <Fendaril> geirha:so you cannot ctr+right-click to get a menu of configuration in ubuntu?
[01:54] <maco> savid: try hitting ctrl+alt+f1 and checking it in from there
[01:54] <maco> savid: it wont be able to try to use gnome stuff then
[01:54] <jefinc> I loaded ubuntu netbook edition onto a LGX120 and it is extremely slow, any suggestions?
[01:55] <dougb_freebsd> pseudosmart: open the ubuntu software center and search for nvidia-settings
[01:55] <geirha> Fendaril: Never heard of that key-binding. What programs does that work on?
[01:56] <pseudosmart> well, I installed it, but I don't see it in system>Admin menu
[01:56] <savid> maco, ah, why didn't I think of that :-/   thanks!
[01:57] <dougb_freebsd> pseudosmart: open up a terminal and type nvidia-seettings
[01:57] <geirha> Fendaril: Oh, I get a menu with uxterm. Interesting.
[01:57] <pksadiq> Type sudo
[01:57] <pksadiq> then nvidia-settings
[01:58] <dougb_freebsd> you usually don't have to use sudo for nvidia-settings
[01:58] <dougb_freebsd> but if it doesn't work as a regular user that's worth trying
[01:58] <baba> do I need to do this with Ubuntu: -A INPUT -m state –state NEW -m tcp -p tcp –dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[01:59] <Fableflame> Is there a way to password protect particular folders in Ubuntu?
[01:59] <Fendaril> geirha:my book said that it would work
[01:59] <Fendaril> geirha: its genral and not distro specific tho
[01:59] <pksadiq> Change the owner to root
[01:59] <geirha> Fendaril: It works with uxterm, but not with xterm for some reason.
[01:59] <Fendaril> geirha:what are the steps you took to get a menu
[02:00] <MarkSS> I restarted my computer and now I am asked to start with low graphics mode and when I hit okay it takes me to a set of menus.  Nothing in those menus will fix my problem though.  What can I do?
[02:00] <geirha> Fendaril: Alt+f2 -> «uxterm» -> Ctrl+ left/right click
[02:00] <Fableflame> Is there a way to password protect particular folders in Ubuntu?
[02:01] <Fendaril> geirha:whats the difference between xterm and uterm
[02:01] <geirha> Fendaril: u for unicode
[02:02] <Freeaqingme> How do I heat my laptop using ubuntu? would like it to be a little warmer here...
[02:02] <jefinc> Freeaqingme: watch a movie in flash, it's a pig
[02:02] <Freeaqingme> :P
[02:02] <Freeaqingme> I was hoping for some cli command
[02:02] <Fendaril> what does the x in term stand for geirha
[02:03] <jrib> Freeaqingme: cpuburn
[02:03] <geirha> Fendaril: the x stands for X :P
[02:03] <Freeaqingme> jrdnyquist, tnx
[02:03] <Freeaqingme> jrib, tnx
[02:03] <DIL> lo
[02:03] <sukuri> Try to use your graphics card, too, those can get pretty warm
[02:03] <geirha> Fendaril: ''apropos xterm''
[02:03] <Brutal_Donut> 2 words: hot coffee
[02:03] <Brutal_Donut> just dump it everywhere
[02:05] <KE1HA> Fableflame, look into using dm-crypt, cryptsetup and LUKS for your encryption needs.
[02:05] <Fableflame> KE1HA, thanks, I'll look into it
[02:06] <blarget2> linux port?
[02:06] <blarget2> sorry for being stupif
[02:06] <blarget2> stupid
[02:06] <Scrumps> What is the command to list permission settings for a folder?
[02:06] <Scrumps> + and files?
[02:06] <blarget2> what games are compadible with ubuntu?
[02:06] <sukuri>  Brutal_Donut: you get the bonus of being able to sue for incorrect labeling on the use of coffee, too!
[02:07] <mickster04> blarget2: with W.I.N.E, lots of games
[02:07] <blarget2> oh true
[02:07] <maco> Scrumps: ls -l
[02:07] <blarget2> fake bios
[02:07] <blarget2> lol
[02:07] <sukuri> blarget2: Unreal Tournament 2k4 is one that's natively compatible. There's also the entire games repository in "Ubuntu Software Center"
[02:07] <blarget2> well should descent be in ubunto?
[02:07] <mickster04> blarget2: check out the software center
[02:07] <blarget2> ill go check
[02:08] <edbian> blarget2, Most games today are developed for microsoft windows (because they dominate the market share)
[02:08] <blarget2> yes i know that
[02:08] <mickster04> edbian: lots of games arent, mostly indie though
[02:09] <mickster04> blarget2: world of goo is on linux
[02:09] <edbian> mickster04, :)  Tell blarget2 :)
[02:09] <blarget2> i cant find out if this is supported D:
[02:09] <kisuke> how would i defragment  a ntfs partition on ubuntu?
[02:09] <sukuri> blarget2: what is "this"?
[02:09] <blarget2> it would be better if i linked you hold on
[02:09] <mickster04>  lots of games arent developed for windows, mostly indie though
[02:09] <blarget2> http://www.minerwars.com/?aid=1215
[02:09] <blarget2> would this count?
[02:10] <blarget2> its indie ish
[02:10] <blarget2> i was thinking of ditching vista for soemthing stable
[02:10] <blarget2> but i also want to get this
[02:10] <sukuri> oh goodness, my netbook, it can't handle it!
[02:10] <blarget2> lol
[02:11] <mickster04> blarget2: not natively no
[02:11] <boywonder> hi please: im trying to instll a package and im getting error cannot find glib?
[02:11] <Flomaster> having trouble with samba I installed it and edited my config file but can't seem to get it started
[02:11] <blarget2> grr
[02:11] <blarget2> ill go bug the dev's to make it native
[02:12] <mickster04> blarget2: good luck with that, it uses directx which isnt used in ubuntu#
[02:12] <blarget2> though, are you guys intrested in 6dof type of games?
[02:12] <blarget2> oh right
[02:12] <kkathman> I should know what this is...but apparently I've hidden the menu in the terminal app...what's that key combo to get it back?
[02:12] <blarget2> linux is opengl
[02:12] <blarget2> :/
[02:12] <blarget2> i guess i HAVE to go wit hwine
[02:12] <blarget2> or just duel boot
[02:13] <DonaldShimoda> blarget2, nothing to do with opengl
[02:13] <DonaldShimoda> linux <> windows architecture
[02:13] <KE1HA> boywonder, how are you trying to install the program? are you building it, or using apt /pkg mgr?
[02:13] <boywonder> im going to build it
[02:13] <boywonder> i think glib is a test app?
[02:13] <Scrumps> Izinucs, thinking about file permissions, could the problem with the /mnt/samba/ file space be the ownership of the folder?
[02:13] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder, glib is a library
[02:14] <KE1HA> boywonder, do: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:14] <DonaldShimoda> install glib-dev
[02:14] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder, let me check it
[02:14] <Izinucs> Scrumps: not sure. sorry
[02:14] <dmex> blarget2: try cedega
[02:14] <KE1HA> He's going to need other packages to build, so may as well install them initially and be done with.
[02:14] <Scrumps> Hm, alright.
[02:15] <blarget2> cedega?
[02:15] <blarget2> is that like wine?
[02:15] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder: sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev
[02:15] <Lalaland> If I have a samba share mounted in ext4, can I still acces it in windows xp without any extra drivers?
[02:15] <dmex> blarget2: yes but focused on gaming.
[02:15] <baba> where is /etc/sysconfig ??
[02:15] <digitalfiz> xnite invite anyone else to a channel?
[02:15] <DonaldShimoda> blarget2, cedega is wine with steroids
[02:15] <blarget2> awesome
[02:15] <blarget2> this wil be the future for me though, ima ware out mi vista till i cant do what i want it to do.
[02:16] <boywonder> im not doing anything yet that i dont understand!, i get this error from ./configure
[02:16] <mickster04> blarget2: windows 7 is worth it in my opiion
[02:16] <xxpor> im curious, I dont use either, but want to learn one, what advantage does screen have over tmux
[02:16] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder: sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev
[02:16] <Fableflame> Why is Ubuntu saying that my Mp3 player has 0 bytes available, and 0 bytes used??
[02:16] <kkathman> I should know what this is...but apparently I've hidden the menu in the terminal app...what's that key combo to get it back?
[02:17] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder, what dont you get then?
[02:17] <kisuke> Fableflame, what mp3 player is it?
[02:17] <kisuke> kkathman, try alt
[02:17] <Fableflame> Some generic I got for 20 bucks
[02:17] <kkathman> kisuke, alt what?
[02:17] <edbian> Fableflame, Is the .Trash folder empty?
[02:17] <kisuke> Fableflame, brand?
[02:17] <Fableflame> But I was in the middle of transferring files when it suddenly told me I had 0 of 0
[02:17] <boywonder> why its asking me for a libary
[02:18] <kisuke> kkathman, alt shouold show the menu bar
[02:18] <KE1HA> boywonder, becasue you dont have all the deps met to use ./configure
[02:18] <kkathman> kisuke nope it doesnt--- not just by itself
[02:18] <Fableflame> edbian: trash is not empty kisuke: idk, the icon on it is faded
[02:18] <edbian> Fableflame, empty the trash.  That's likely the problem.
[02:18] <boywonder> deps?
[02:18] <edbian> Fableflame, If something is in the trash folder it's still on the device.
[02:19] <boywonder> thats visable
[02:19] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder: sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev
[02:19] <kkathman> kisuke this is the terminal app by the way
[02:19] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder, ??????
[02:19] <boywonder> ok
[02:19] <KE1HA> boywonder, do: sudo apt-get -y install build-essential  .. then do ./configure again.
[02:19] <DonaldShimoda> boywonder, finally... 5 times i have to write the same...
[02:19] <Fableflame> edbian: I emptied the Trash, it still says I have 0 of 0
[02:19] <Lalaland> Anyone know if the partition type of where a samba share is stored matters?
[02:19] <nophis> Hi. I have an external disk connected through an USB 2.0 port to my laptop. When I copy large files to the external disk, the speed starts at ~25mb/s and after some seconds, the speed slow with time until it be about ~3mb/s. Anyone here expected the same problem and know a solution/workaround for this issue?
[02:20] <mickster04> Fableflame: is it still connected?
[02:20] <edbian> Fableflame, Hmmm.  Odd. what does df -h say about it?
[02:20] <DonaldShimoda> Lalaland, in absolute
[02:20] <boywonder> thank you DonaldShimoda I THINK ILL USE THAT LIB
[02:20] <Fableflame> mickster04, yes edbian: okay, hold on
[02:20] <KE1HA> good luck
[02:20] <Fableflame> edbian: do I just run -h in the terminal?
[02:20] <Lalaland> nophis, what file type?
[02:20] <edbian> Fableflame, df -h    yes
[02:20] <DonaldShimoda> nophis, stop anyother task on diskbefore start it
[02:21] <nophis> DonaldShimoda, I'm doing just this operation, no md5sum checks, neither other move copy operation
[02:21] <boywonder> KE1HA its hard being new and trying to take advice from two people, ????
[02:21] <Fableflame> edbian: /dev/sda2             112G   70G   43G  63% /media/E03E39A03E397120
[02:21] <nophis> Lalaland, movie file (8gb)
[02:21] <PeterT> how do I format the ubuntu partition to NTFS?
[02:21] <Fableflame> says there is 43G still available
[02:22] <edbian> Fableflame, That sounds much more believeable.  IS that correct?  What app is reporting that it's full?
[02:22] <kisuke> PeterT, do you want to keep ubuntu?
[02:22] <Fableflame> edbian: right clicking and selecting properties
[02:22] <PeterT> kisuke: obviously not
[02:22] <edbian> Fableflame, Oh who cares what that says! :)
[02:22] <PeterT> kisuke: no, I'm selling my laptop and would like to take it off :)
[02:22] <Fableflame> edbian: I do, because it won't let me transfer anything, because it says the device is full
[02:22] <kisuke> ues a live cd, run gparted and delete the ubuntu partition and make a new NTFS partition
[02:23] <edbian> Fableflame, Ahh, that's a bigger problem.
[02:23] <mickster04> Fableflame: have you tried taking it out and putting it back in?
[02:23] <Fableflame> mickster04, yes, to no avail
[02:23] <edbian> Fableflame, I'm having trouble figuring out why df -h reports correctly but the gui does not.
[02:23] <Fableflame> edbian: I have no idea. How to I format a device in Ubuntu?
[02:24] <edbian> Fableflame, You use gparted (app in the repos) but if you format a device you loose all the info currently on it.
[02:24] <Fableflame> wait wait wait
[02:24] <Fableflame> wait
[02:24] <Fableflame> I was wrong
[02:24] <mickster04> lol
[02:24] <Fableflame> I was looking at the wrong readout
[02:24] <mickster04> :D
[02:24] <Fableflame> /dev/sdh1             990M  990M     0 100% /media/42E0-7C24
[02:24] <Fableflame> that's the readout for my mp3 player
[02:24] <edbian> Fableflame, Ahhh!! There's the ticket.
[02:25] <mickster04> Fableflame: its full
[02:25] <edbian> Fableflame, Now, this might seem stupid, is it full?
[02:25] <xxpor> Fableflame: sdH? how much space do you have lol?
[02:25] <N0px> join #backtrack
[02:25] <edbian> xxpor, It's an external music player
[02:25] <edbian> N0px, almost!
[02:25] <Fableflame> edbian: It shouldn't be xxpor: it's just a 1 gig mp3 player
[02:25] <xxpor> edbian: I know, that means you have 7 other disks though
[02:25] <mickster04> Fableflame: Thats not much
[02:26] <edbian> Fableflame, Have you used the disc analyzer
[02:26] <Fableflame> but under properties it says 0 used
[02:26] <edbian> xxpor, At one point.  They could be flash drives
[02:26] <edbian> Fableflame, How much do you think is used on it?
[02:26] <N0px> Can anyone help me with back track 4 i have a few noob questions
[02:26] <Fableflame> edbian: idk, but after I deleted everything on it it doesn't tell me 0 anymore
[02:26] <mickster04>  N0px just ask them
[02:26] <mickster04> Fableflame: what does it say then?
[02:27] <kisuke> N0px, type "/join #backtrack"
[02:27] <Fableflame> but someting is using 932.4 mbs
[02:27] <xxpor> edbian: I have never really played with it, will ubuntu remeber usb drives and preserve their sdx location?
[02:27] <Fableflame> I have no files on it, and something is taking up 932.4 megabytes
[02:27] <edbian> xxpor, IDK.  I think so.
[02:27] <edbian> Fableflame, The trash folder is empty?
[02:27] <mickster04> Fableflame: its all in .trasj
[02:27] <mickster04> Fableflame: its all in .trash
[02:28] <edbian> mickster04, That's what I though.
[02:28] <boodroscotch> Hey guys, just a little question. I'm on Lucid, and I've just installed FGLRX (for I am using an ATi) card, and I was wondering; can you remove the native xorg ati drivers safely after installing fglrx?
[02:28] <Fableflame> okay, I emptied trash again and I have more space now
[02:28] <edbian> Fableflame, There is a hidden trash folder on the / of the device.   How do I see that trash folder?
[02:29] <edbian> Fableflame, I am quite annoyed I had to say that twice.
[02:29] <edbian> Fableflame, view -> show hidden files
[02:30] <mickster04> Fableflame: go to the device in nautilis and type ctrl+h
[02:30] <magn3ts> How do I reinstall / such that it respects the existing /home that is on another drive?
[02:30] <kisuke> does anyone know how to defragment a NTFS partition in ubuntu?
[02:30] <edbian> Fableflame, Ubuntu will use a .Trash folder on every partition on every device that supports having one.
[02:30] <Fableflame> edbian: I got this "Unable to trash file: Invalid argument"
[02:30] <zzzed> kisuke, I don't think you can
[02:31] <metrahla> may ubuntu 10.10 be less system consumning?
[02:31] <kisuke> zzzed, well an answer is better than nothing thanks
[02:31] <metrahla> comparing with 10.04
[02:31] <Blue1> metrahla: big changes in 10.10
[02:31] <mickster04> Fableflame: try shift delete?
[02:31] <mickster04> Blue1: such as?
[02:32] <Blue1> mickster04: sizes will no longer be reported in binary - they will be reported in decimal
[02:32] <Fableflame> edbian, mickster04, ok they're gone, thanks
[02:32] <mickster04> Blue1: what?! thats stupid
[02:33] <Blue1> mickster04: welcome to shuttleworth's world
[02:33] <Blue1> mickster04: actually the mac already does that...
[02:34] <nogo> mac has lost

[02:34] <pie_time> i cant get my radar map to work for the weather panal applet in ubuntu
[02:35] <Blue1> pie_time: not all locations have radar
[02:35] <jamie_> My .conkyrc contains a line 'own_window_type desktop override' but when I click the desktop conky disappears (but it's still in 'top'...)
[02:35] <edbian> pie_time, My radar doesn't work either :(
[02:35] <pie_time> Blue1, this is in north america for pete's sake
[02:36] <metrahla> Blue1, may there be anything meaning, that i will become faster, or slower?
[02:36] <Blue1> pie_time: YMMV applies - NOT all locations have radar
[02:36] <pie_time> Blue1, but ive had radar in the past
[02:36] <edbian> pie_time, So have I :(
[02:36] <Blue1> pie_time: feeds go down all the time -- not a priority
[02:37] <delinquentme> is there a way to remove "open w open office" off of my ubuntu right click options?

[02:41] <Blue1> petersteele111: ahh i just know the name from type o negative
[02:41] <petersteele111> thanks pie i found some im just waiting to go in in a min
[02:41] <mickster04> agus: do you have a 64 bit computer?
[02:41] <petersteele111> yeah. Thats where most people know the name from
[02:41] <mickster04> !ot
[02:42] <Blue1> pie_time: well first you have to determine if your machine is 64 bit
[02:42] <pie_time> Blue1, why?
[02:42] <agus> yes, I installed ubuntu 32 bit to 64 bit computer
[02:42] <mickster04> agus: then why not?
[02:42] <nogo> what?
[02:42] <Blue1> because you can't run 64 bit on a 32 bit system
[02:42] <jamie_> agus he wants to know if he can upgrade to 64 (I think he already has 32 installed)
[02:42] <mickster04> agus: oh wait upgrade?
[02:42] <Blue1> pie_time: try this:  if grep -q ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo; then echo "is 64 bits"; else "No luck  :("; fi
[02:43] <agus> how to install using terminal
[02:43] <mickster04> agus: no that wont work as for installing from terminal sudo apt-get
[02:43] <Blue1> agus: upgrade NOT recommended
[02:43] <edbian> agus has 32 bit Ubuntu installed on 64 bit hardware.  He wants to upgrade to 64 bit OS
[02:43] <kisuke> !apt |agus
[02:43] <pie_time> Blue1, i dont know what you're talking about
[02:44] <agus> so there is no way beside reinstall with 64 bit?
[02:44] <mickster04> agus: you will have to reinstall to change from 32 to 64 bit
[02:44] <Blue1> pie_time: sorry that was from agus
[02:44] <mickster04> agus: no
[02:44] <Blue1> agus do:  if grep -q ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo; then echo "is 64 bits"; else "No luck  :("; fi
[02:44] <Josesordo> How I change the Login Screen in Ubuntu 10.04?
[02:44] <jamie_> agus - the best way to do it is to backup/reinstall anyway - needs new kernel, etc, etc.
[02:44] <Blue1> jamie_: you just need to backup /etc/ and /home/ and should be gtg
[02:45] <Scrumps> What command can I use to unmount all filesystems? As umount -f and umount -a is not working on the filesystems that are needing to be unmounted?
[02:46] <agus> ok, thanks.
[02:46] <jamie_> Blue1 I like clean installs, what can I say... Personally, I'd use the alternate install CD if it would boot on my machine :-/
[02:46] <jamie_> So anybody for helping me with a conky line?
[02:47] <Fableflame> What can I do to access my cousin's Ubuntu desktop from my own?
[02:47] <kisuke> ok, can some one help me figure out why ext4 is now the default FS?
[02:47] <fruitwerks> I am trying to install from usb, but I get to locating the cdrom step and it fails.. what is the workaround?
[02:47] <petersteele111> weird it wont let me join #python? I can join ##python but not the first one?
[02:47] <kisuke> petersteele111, i dont #python exists
[02:48] <jamie_> No Conky help?  Alright, I'll try back in a few hours
[02:48] <kisuke> fruitwerks, how did you make your live USB?
[02:48] <mickster04>  Fableflame well if the routers are both set up and he has sshd installed and running alls you need to do is type in ssh into your terminal for textual command line control
[02:48] <rww> petersteele111: It's limited to registered users. See the instructions ubottu's about to give you.
[02:48] <petersteele111> i dont know it pops up with 836 users?
[02:48] <rww> ubottu: register | petersteele111
[02:48] <petersteele111> ah ok
[02:48] <pie_time> jamie_,
[02:48] <fruitwerks> kisuke: I downloaded the iso and used the program sugegsted on the website
[02:48] <jamie_> pie_time aye?
[02:48] <pie_time> jamie_, i need conky help
[02:48] <bosco> hey i used  ""devede"" to burn an iso dvd file and i burned it to a dvd and now it is telling me that it wont play in my dvd due to ""area Limitations"" i know what that means just how to i fix that ?????
[02:48] <jamie_> pie_time what's your issue?
[02:48] <kisuke> fruitwerks, weird
[02:49] <fruitwerks> bosco: probably need to set the region in the burning app
[02:49] <Blue1> bosco: I've had problems with that - try re-burning the iso onto a CD and NOT a dvd.  shouldn't matter, but it does.
[02:49] <bosco> fruitwerks, didnt have one lol
[02:49] <pie_time> i have no clue how to get the conky thing to work with config files
[02:50] <Fableflame> rww: umm, I have registered my nick here, and it won't let me join. . .
[02:50] <fruitwerks> I pointed it to /dev/sdc1 - but that didn't work, and busybox isn't horribly helpful
[02:50] <rww> Fableflame: You're not identified with nickserv.
[02:50] <jamie_> pie_time you have to create a .conkyrc file in your home dir (in a terminal do 'cd ~' then 'touch .conkyrc' then 'sudo gedit .conkyrc' and paste your code in there.
[02:50] <rww> Fableflame: /msg nickserv help identify
[02:50] <Fableflame> rww: i thought that was automatic?
[02:50] <kisuke> Fableflame, are you signed in right now?
[02:51] <deevz> is there a way to change the print interface in ubuntu? the default one cant do what I need
[02:51] <rww> Fableflame: not if you don't properly set up your client to identify automatically
[02:51] <deevz> and no matter which program I try to print with, its the same print interface
[02:51] <Blue1> deevz: what do you mean by "print interface?"
[02:51] <deevz> the window that is brought up when you click on "print" for an image
[02:52] <mickster04> deevz: no, what do you need it to do?
[02:52] <Blue1> deevz: not that I am aware of....that's pretty standard...you just don't like it, or it doesn't work?
[02:52] <mickster04> deevz: i mean of course you can, but its a faff
[02:52] <jamie_> pie_touch try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=867076&highlight=conky and it's related links on the first post
[02:52] <deevz> it cant even rotate the image...
[02:52] <fruitwerks> what alternate boot-from-usb methods are there? I have a windows machine and a linux machine handy right now
[02:53] <Blue1> deevz: what programme are you trying to use to rotate an image?
[02:53] <mickster04> deevz: well im sure you can set landscape or portraint
[02:53] <deevz> doesnt work
[02:53] <pie_time> jamie_, how much resources does conky use
[02:53] <ring0> i'm using 10.04 with lvm and luks. boot is on a separate usb-stick, which actually works like a charm. now, i came back from a 10 day vacation and the system wouldn't start from the stick, until i used a live-cd and chroot with grub-install. i shut down the system correctly, any ideas how this could have happened? does flash memory have problems when not in use?
[02:53] <deevz> oh well nm, image viewer can rotate and it affects the print model
[02:53] <Blue1> deevz: could you be more specific, what doesn't work?
[02:53] <mickster04> deevz: well rotate it in the image program
[02:54] <deevz> its all good now
[02:54] <deevz> solved the problem
[02:54] <mickster04> Blue1: it doesnt have the functionality to change wether it prints in portrait or landscape aooarently
[02:54] <deevz> thats right
[02:54] <jamie_> pie_time: mine right now is using.... lemme see... 2%cpu (on a C2D e8400 OCed to 3.6) and 0% ram  --  good luck :-)  And be careful - it can get addicting getting it all customized XD
[02:54] <Blue1> mickster04: I don't know about the image viewer - but other programmes like gimp do.
[02:55] <cablop> i got an stupid problem
[02:55] <mickster04> Blue1: i thought it did too
[02:55] <jamie_> cablop: don't we all XD
[02:55] <mickster04> cablop: well tell us in detail about it an maybe we can help
[02:55] <deevz> oh wow, it printed like it is an A1 paper
[02:55] <deevz> that sucks
[02:55] <TiK> jamie_: how do I know what to overclock too without frying my computer :)
[02:55] <fruitwerks> what is the codename for the current stable?
[02:55] <fruitwerks> (server)
[02:55] <mickster04> deevz: what orogram are you using?
[02:55] <cablop> using the liveCd ubuntu detects my wireless device, i installed it, but now my ubuntu does not detect it! :(
[02:55] <mickster04> fruitwerks: 10.04
[02:56] <dougb_freebsd> TiK: just say no to overclocking
[02:56] <fruitwerks> mickster04: yeah - but what is the release name, as found here http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/
[02:56] <jamie_> TiK try www.overclock.net that's where I learned the ropes (depends on your MB, NB, CPU (type, revision, and serial number) and your FSB if you're intel)
[02:56] <dougb_freebsd> it rarely gives you an actually useful performance benefit, and it can damage your system in hard-to-detect ways
[02:56] <mickster04> fruitwerks: Lucid
[02:56] <deevz> whats an orogram mickster84?
[02:56] <deevz> program, im dumb
[02:56] <deevz> im on imageviewer
[02:57] <TiK> jamie_: yeah Im using  an intel certrino hm Ill check it out
[02:57] <mickster04> deevz: oh ok.
[02:57] <jamie_> Extraclassic: yay! You're here!  maybe you can help me real quick...
[02:57] <deevz> fuck this
[02:57] <deevz> ima relog into windows
[02:57] <maco> TiK: something most people dont know about overclocking if they havent taken a computer architecture class is that higher clockspeeds = more missed instructions
[02:57] <cablop> how can i make ubuntu detect my wireless device? live cd does... but installed system won't... :(
[02:57] <jamie_> TiK: I would not recommend it with a centrino, but ask around on OCN (overclock.net) and they'll know more than I do
[02:57] <mickster04> deevz: try instaling something like gimp, its much more powerfull
[02:57] <maco> !language | deevz
[02:58] <deevz> mickster: seems like its the print interface that is limited
[02:58] <deevz> gimp wouldnt help
[02:58] <maco> TiK: also, centrino isnt a CPU
[02:58] <deevz> the size scaling doesnt even work
[02:58] <extraclassic> jamie_: it's possible
[02:58] <maco> TiK: its basically a marketing word....its a bundle of whatever intel's latest cpu is along with an intel chipset and gpu
[02:58] <mickster04> deevz: well gimo would do all that
[02:58] <jamie_> maco: run orthos for 24 hrs and you get ram check and cpu ;-)
[02:59] <kisuke> any one here dual boot win7 and *nix?
[02:59] <kisuke> opps sorry MT
[02:59] <mickster04> deevz: what about the other tabs, like page setup:P
[02:59] <Jordan_U> !anyone | kisuke
[02:59] <jamie_> extraclassic: My .conkyrc contains a line 'own_window_type desktop override' but when I click the desktop conky disappears (but it's still in 'top'...) Any known issues?  it's Conky 1.8.0
[03:00] <fruitwerks> trying a netboot.. thanks all
[03:00] <deevz> oh wow mickster
[03:00] <extraclassic> jamie_: the lines need to say "own_window yes" and "own_window_type override"
[03:00] <kisuke> Jordan_U, yes you know how to (ab)use the bot how about reading the whole comment next?
[03:00] <deevz> thats weird how the paper type is set up at two different places, looks like a misconception
[03:00] <mickster04> deevz: sheesh
[03:00] <deevz> but it should solve it
[03:00] <deevz> thx
[03:01] <mickster04> deevz: well done on looking yourself first....
[03:01] <jamie_> extraclassic - it worked until I shutdown and powered on after dinner - if I just do override then other windows go underneath it (basically its always on top)
[03:01] <Josesordo> How I change the Login Screen in Ubuntu 10.04?
[03:02] <mickster04> !gdm
[03:02] <jamesw> how can i view someone's ssh session live?
[03:02] <kisuke> !gnome | Josesordo
[03:03] <Scrumps> Is there not a graphical firewall interface in 1.0.04?
[03:03] <Baxnie> i wanna install boost 1.42, but using build versions from repository, how can i find the repository that contains it?
[03:03] <sigmab3ta> hey guys; i'd like to use svn to pull a revision that isn't the newest, what is the command for that?
[03:04] <extraclassic> jamie_: i'm not sure...go to these sites - http://conky.sourceforge.net/config_settings.html, http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html
[03:04] <zzzed> Scrumps, firestarter
[03:04] <jamie_> extraclassic google is of no help to me at this point, and #conky is non existent :-/   .... maybe I should see if anyone is in #crunchbang...?
[03:04] <dougb_freebsd> sigmab3ta: svn co -r
[03:04] <jamie_> extraclassic - alright, thanks for the links - much appreciated :-)  Later, mate
[03:04] <dougb_freebsd> you'll have to fill in a revision number of course
[03:05] <TiK> maco: there is a sticker that says "intel centrino" inside if its not a CPU what is it
[03:05] <pie_time> dougb_freebsd, is freebsd as easy as ubuntu if you add gnome to it?
[03:06] <dougb_freebsd> pie_time: /join ##freebsd and I'll be glad to answer that, it's OT here
[03:06] <maco> TiK: like i already said, its the combination of intel's latest cpu, intel's latest chipset, and intel's latest gpu. it's a marketing term for that bundle
[03:06] <pie_time> dougb_freebsd, may i pm you
[03:06] <extraclassic> pie_time: ubuntu is probably easier cause of synaptic
[03:06] <dougb_freebsd> you'll get better more interesting answers in ##freebsd :)
[03:06] <maco> TiK: 4 years ago, "centrino" meant core duo and 3945 chipset / 945 gpu.  2 years ago it meant core 2 duo and 4965
[03:06] <Scrumps> zzzed, does firestarter have to be installed? As I don't see it in the System menu or Application menu.
[03:07] <pie_time> dougb_freebsd, i might get booed and hissed at for being a noob too
[03:07] <zzzed> Scrumps, yes it needs to be installed
[03:07] <Scrumps> Alright.
[03:07] <dougb_freebsd> nope, that channel is just as friendly as this one, if not as busy :)
[03:08] <TiK> maco: o
[03:08] <TiK> maco: well yahs its a core2 laptop ands its only 2.0
[03:09] <sigmab3ta> dougb_freebsd, thank you
[03:09] <dougb_freebsd> np
[03:09] <kisuke> what is the command to have dpkg configure a package?
[03:10] <Scrumps> zzzed, is there a different program? As apparently firestarter limits ICMP?
[03:10] <extraclassic> kisuke: i think it's dpkg -i [filename]
[03:11] <kisuke> extraclassic, its installed, just didnt configure because its dependencys configured after it did
[03:11] <zzzed> kisuke, dpkg --configure <pkgname>
[03:11] <kisuke> zzzed, ty
[03:12] <extraclassic> does anyone here use GnoMenu
[03:12] <zzzed> Scrumps, gufw
[03:16] <Josesordo> I cant find the GDM in my menu :(
[03:17] <Baxnie> i wanna install boost 1.42, but using build versions from repository, how can i find the repository that contains it?

[03:19] <Soggystefan> Well, hey guys, I have some questions... I run Ubuntu on all my, and my friends' PCs. However, my primary computer is a 2010 Macbook Pro with the latest in MacOS (Snow Leopard, am I right?). How does the latest Ubuntu compare to Snow Leopard?
[03:19] <cablop> Soggystefan: that's up to you and your comparisson criteria
[03:20] <cablop> if what you want is freedom to choose options stick with ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10
[03:20] <Soggystefan> hmm
[03:20] <cablop> if you want new things and start learning a lot of ubuntu stuff again, ten go for lucid
[03:20] <Soggystefan> Would you suggest a VM?
[03:21] <kisuke> Soggystefan, what processor do you have?
[03:21] <baba> where is /etc/sysconfig ??
[03:22] <Soggystefan> Processor? I'm not very good with the finer points...
[03:23] <Soggystefan> I'll link you the computer info, though
[03:23] <cablop> Soggystefan: then... you'll end in the same problem as Google Chrome... lucid on VM just have two possible outcomes... one... it runs nice and well... or it will run retardedly bad... no intermediate point, but give it a try, you have a good Pc, and maybe it will run nice there
[03:23] <Josesordo> the ubuntu 10.04 dont have the GDM where I can change the login Screen Style.. :(
[03:23] <cablop> or, better.... Soggystefan, test it with the live cd...
[03:23] <Josesordo> !gdm
[03:23] <Soggystefan> hehe
[03:24] <extraclassic> Josesordo: you can change the login screen with Ailurus
[03:24] <nogo2> my cpu is called ctcp
[03:24] <nogo2> i just to poke smart asses for fun
[03:24] <Soggystefan> Well, my proccesor is an Intel Core 2 Duo
[03:24] <Soggystefan> er
[03:24] <Soggystefan> 2.66GHz Intel Core i7
[03:25] <kisuke> well looks like its reinstall time
[03:25] <Soggystefan> actually
[03:26] <cablop> Soggystefan: but the best way is a live cd, you can test your hardware also
[03:26] <Soggystefan> Does that just mean burning a disc? Or is it something else?
[03:27] <cablop> Soggystefan: a cd of course, download it from ubuntu
[03:27] <LinuxGuy2009> I just did a partial upgrade to 10.04.1 with the alternate CD and now I was trying to reinstall the nvidia driver but I cant seem to get gdm to stop like I used to do. Does "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" not work anymore?
[03:27] <Soggystefan> k
[03:27] <nogo2> 2.66g is a lame number. it's seen at about 7 years ago
[03:27] <Soggystefan> lol
[03:27] <cablop> LinuxGuy2009: try # sudo service gdm stop
[03:27] <Soggystefan> I dunno what I'm getting
[03:27] <Soggystefan> My parents got it for me as a gift.
[03:28] <Soggystefan> I'm only 13.
[03:28] <cablop> nogo... intel i7 lame? huh...
[03:28] <Josesordo> extraclassic: thx, I installed it..let me see
[03:28] <LinuxGuy2009> cablop: Ok. Was that a change that 10.04.1 introduced or why has it changed on my system?
[03:28] <cablop> wow, a 13 years old entering the geeky world
[03:28] <Soggystefan> One moment, I'm going to go find a disc.
[03:28] <Soggystefan> Hey, it's the age.
[03:28] <cablop> LinuxGuy2009: i don't know, they're changing the way services are being managed
[03:28] <Soggystefan> We're all Digital Natives, you could say.
[03:29]  * Soggystefan goes to find a disc
[03:29] <LinuxGuy2009> cablop: ok thank you
[03:29] <cablop> Soggystefan: yes, you guys don't know what a typewritter is
[03:29] <nogo2> do you notice? your cpu's external clock is too low
[03:29] <cablop> Soggystefan: if you have enough time and bandwidth then download the dvd iso, not the cd one, just cause the dvd has more packages and it's more useful
[03:32] <DjMortal> hola
[03:32] <cablop> hello
[03:32] <extraclassic> Josesordo: I could've been wrong man....I thought it was in there somewhere but I don't see it
[03:33] <Soggystefan> cablop: I've got a typewriter on my desk...  :P
[03:35] <Feynman> hello whats a good irc client for ubuntu?
[03:35] <extraclassic> Josesordo: these instructions work- http://linux-software-news-tutorials.blogspot.com/2010/05/change-boot-login-screen-in-ubuntu-1004.html
[03:35] <Soggystefan> I do believe
[03:35] <Soggystefan> empath works for irc
[03:35] <Feynman> i don't much care for the one in empathy.
[03:35] <cablop> Soggystefan: but i guess you got my point
[03:36] <Soggystefan> Hehe, yeah
[03:36] <Feynman> I'm using that at the moment.
[03:36]  * Soggystefan is now thoroughly pissed
[03:36] <Josesordo> extraclassic: Damn, I thougth that app could change login screen... but I tested it and didnt work, let me see your link now
[03:36] <Soggystefan> My computer keeps ejecting my disk
[03:36]  * Feynman hugs Sog
[03:37] <cablop> lol
[03:37] <Soggystefan> I need teh luv :(
[03:37] <slacker-> Hi guys, I'm trying to map a samba share to my windows 7 box via ssh tunneling. this all worked fine with XP by just forwarding port 139 and then stopping the local 'net server' and browsing to \\<IP_ADDRESS>\. Windows 7 however doesn't seem to like this
[03:38] <dougb_freebsd> Feynman: If you just want to do chatting, the client in pidgin is quite functional
[03:38] <Soggystefan> Hey, guys, do you think the disc would work better if I cracked it in half?
[03:38] <thiebaude> !xchat
[03:38] <Soggystefan> x|
[03:38] <cablop> slackeri think you are doing that the hard way... why tunneling via ssh server?
[03:39] <Soggystefan> If Ubuntu can use the Colloquy irc client, I'd suggest that. I very functional and prettyful on my mac.
[03:39] <Soggystefan> I find it very *
[03:39] <Sunderphon> is there an alternative to notify-osd around?
[03:39] <Sunderphon> The enforced expiry time (10 seconds for a 1 word notification?  I've tried another config system and it didn't make a difference
[03:42] <wcGary83> please someone help me, when i setup a folder for sharing on my desktop computer in nautilus, why might i not be able to see it from a laptop on the same router?
[03:42] <wcGary83> do need to forward ports or something?
[03:42] <ThomasB2k> Sunderphon, yes it does
[03:43] <ThomasB2k> I just checked, I have it installed my self
[03:43] <iyoet> hi all... i'm running ubuntu 10.04 on Fujitsu Esprimo U9200. But got problem with the power... according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/489824 this is a bug. is there any solution???
[03:43] <metrahla> anyone knows this error?  DRM version 1.0 too old to support HyperZ, disabling.
[03:44] <Soggystefan> iyoet: whack it with a sledge hammer?

[03:44] <metrahla> kisuke, glxgears
[03:45] <Fendaril> How do you get the Vt fonts menu up
[03:45] <avi_> Hey folks, how might I go about replacing Nautilus with Thunar? It's dramatically faster and lighter, and I really don't need any of the features of a normal file browser save.. well, basic GUI file browsing. Is this possible to do in an easy way?
[03:45] <petersteele111> why is it when i installed Xubuntu 10.04 from an iso image it boots up with gnome as the desktop manager? I always thought xubuntu ran xfce4 by default?
[03:46] <petersteele111> i changed it over but was just curious
[03:46] <Fendaril> petersteele111: it is because GNOME is the default desktop enviromnet
[03:46] <Fendaril> petersteele111: I think there is an option to change it to something else
[03:46] <avi_> avi_ testing something
[03:47] <wcGary83> please help me I desperately need to stream movies over my network!
[03:47] <petersteele111> I just for whatever reason thought XFCE4 was the default dont know why
[03:47] <ikar> hello, how can i modify grub in ubuntu 10.04.1 ?
[03:47] <metrahla> kisuke, without dri , i get 1800 fps, if i had dri that whould be great, maybe it whould get a good frame rate
[03:47] <avi_> wcGary83: hey, I've managed to do that with SaMBa and SSHFS.
[03:47] <celliz> exit
[03:47] <celliz> quit
[03:47] <Fendaril> petersteele111: well now you know it's not
[03:47] <kisuke> metrahla, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Glxgears_is_not_a_Benchmark
[03:47] <wcGary83> avi_ is there a good tutorial you used?
[03:47] <Sunderphon> ThomasB2k: I still can't change the expire time on notifications
[03:48] <Soggystefan> Gary, do you have the nessecary plugins for the type of movie-file-thingamijig?
[03:48] <avi_> wcGary83: Well, sshfs is dirt-simple. You literally only need install ssh on your computer, and then sshfs -o user@server:/path/to/remote /path/to/local
[03:48] <wcGary83> Soggystefan: I was thinking of trying to set up vlc for that, doesn't it specialize in that type of stuff?
[03:49] <avi_> wcGary83: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS would help you with the nitty gritty. I personally think that SaMBa is faster (and most def. more secure) than SSHFS. But i'm trying to use SSHFS as i couldn't figure out how to get samba to auto-mount on login. :D
[03:50] <Soggystefan> Does it? It probably does, I'm not the person to ask. Listen to avi!
[03:50] <wcGary83> avi_ I am trying to mount the folder to play movies right from the desktop... ssh only transfers files, right?
[03:50] <avi_> wcGary83: So I thought a week ago! SSH actually is a magical thing that does a bajillion super useful things.
[03:50] <avi_> wcGary83: You can in one command, mount an SSH server's hard drive, and browse it natively in nautilus, with no mods whatsoever.
[03:51] <wcGary83> avi_ huh, i'll check that out!
[03:51] <Blue1> avi_: ssh is used for remote adminstration of a computer or network
[03:51] <Fendaril> Does anyone know how to get the VT fonts menu?
[03:51] <avi_> Blue1: I'm aware :D
[03:52] <dougb_freebsd> Fendaril: in an xterm?
[03:52] <Fendaril> Yes!
[03:52] <G__81> how do i change the booting sequence in grub2
[03:52] <Fendaril> i actually needed a uterm to get a menu up period
[03:52] <G__81> i am using ubuntu 10.04.1
[03:52] <dougb_freebsd> hold down control, and click
[03:52] <dougb_freebsd> if it's not control, it's alt
[03:52] <G__81> i changed the Default and time out values in /etc/default/grub.cfg
[03:53] <G__81> but it does not take any effect
[03:53] <Fendaril> dougb_freebsd: any reason why i cannot get a menu up in xterm
[03:53] <Fendaril> dougb_freebsd: I can get it up fine in uterm, but no VT fonts in uterm
[03:53] <G__81> can some one let me know on how to change the boot sequence in grub 2
[03:53] <sacarlson> G__81: I use startupmanager to change grub2 default boot
[03:54] <G__81> sacarlson, how do i install that ?
[03:54] <dougb_freebsd> Fendaril: interesting, the main options menu works, but not vt fonts ... probably a compilation option
[03:54] <cafard74> Hello! I have a M-audio Delta-44 soundcard. In Dapper and Feisty I did not have to do anything and it worked. Now with version 10 nothing works, even after installing the up to date drivers...
[03:54] <sacarlson> G__81: apt-get install startupmanager
[03:54] <G__81> sacarlson, just apt-get install startupmanager
[03:55] <sacarlson> G__81: it's a GUI that you access from System>administration>startup-manager
[03:55] <kenthree> how do I reset this xubuntu session? it shows the windows I had open last time (save this session for future logins is unchecked in the shutdown dialog)
[03:55] <Soggystefan> Wow, you could learn alot just sitting here and listening O.o
[03:55] <Fendaril> dougb_freebsd: this is practice for a linux book I am reading and as you can probably tell VT fonts is somewhat needed. Can i live without VT fonts in a general linux career of sys admin mastery over the OS?
[03:56] <rodeo_> Hi!
[03:56] <G__81> sacarlson, ok now i have selected one option in that how do i save it ?
[03:56] <rodeo_>   Any one for help please
[03:56] <avi_> !ask | rodeo_
[03:57] <sacarlson> G__81: just close the window after selection and your done
[03:57] <G__81> oh ok thanks sacarlson
[03:57] <rodeo_> Ok! On desktop layout for applications, their is no search option in ubuntu?
[03:58] <Soggystefan> yes, there most certaintly is
[03:58] <Soggystefan> the name of which escapes me :x
[03:58] <Soggystefan> one sec
[03:58] <kenthree> how do I start a terminal with a command automatically on startup?
[03:58] <rodeo_> I am installing softwares, but they are not enlisted in the list, how do I find them
[03:58] <avi_> rodeo_: Tracker. That's what you'll want.
[03:59] <cafard74> I have a M-audio Delta-44 soundcard. In Dapper and Feisty I did not have to do anything and it worked. Now with version 10.04 nothing works, even after installing the up to date drivers... How do I make it work ?
[03:59] <Soggystefan> What avi said >.>
[03:59] <dougb_freebsd> kenthree: why don't you describe what you're trying to accomplish
[03:59] <avi_> rodeo_: Alternatively, you can try Beagle. I don't myself use either service (I use Gnome-Do to search files), and I can't remember which was better.
[03:59] <Soggystefan> Just go through like, 3 clicks, and you have it. If you just want a terminal
[03:59] <rodeo_> avi_ where do I get that 'Tracker"
[04:00] <kenthree> dougb_freebsd: I need to start a php script on login
[04:00] <avi_> rodeo_: sudo apt-get install tracker beagle -- that would get you both.
[04:00] <rodeo_> Thanks let me try!
[04:00] <avi_> rodeo_: Or pop up the Ubuntu Software Center and search for "beagle" or "tracker"
[04:00] <pegler> hi all.  quick question, but I can't seem to find the right thing to google for.
[04:01] <avi_> rodeo_: Actually, i'd use beagle.
[04:01] <rodeo_> avi- many many thanks
[04:01] <Soggystefan> Tell us your question then...
[04:01] <avi_> rodeo_: I just checked, it's more integrated in the Gnome UI.
[04:01] <Soggystefan> xD
[04:01] <pegler> I made a new interface eth0:0, but it doesn't connect automatically at boot.  how do I set this up?
[04:01] <avi_> rodeo_: Sure thing.
[04:01] <TiK> pegler: there should be a checkox for "auto" or something
[04:01] <TiK> pegler: thats gui tho
[04:02] <arnotixe_> This might have been asked before: Is there any ogg/vorbis alternative to the bookmarking/tagging of M4B or whatever the apple[?] audiobook format is called? I mean, can an ogg/vorbis file contain such "chapters"?
[04:02] <pegler> I've been doing it through /etc/network/interfaces.  about to try using the gui
[04:02] <Soggystefan> Oh, wow, I just found a disc with macpuppy on it, gathering dust under my bed O.o
[04:02] <Soggystefan> wierd.
[04:02] <cafard74> IS there any known problems with the M-Audio delta drivers and Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[04:03] <sacarlson> kenthree: when you login to your ubuntu xserver sesion?  or when you login to a web page?
[04:03] <ikar> Hey! I'm trying to dual-boot Ubuntu-10.04 and Gentoo, but Grub doesn't include Gentoo. What can be wrong?
[04:03] <scans> hello, am looking for html editor and designor that can be easy to use and help me with writting code if possible
[04:04] <vvtungtk5> hello
[04:04] <kenthree> sacarlson: when the computer starts up. it's just a cli script
[04:04] <sacarlson> ikar: is your bios booting the default /dev/sda disk?
[04:04] <avi_> scans: I'd try Kompozer.
[04:04] <ikar> sacarlson, yes
[04:05] <sacarlson> kenthree: computer startup is normaly not login.  you can set a crontab envent at boot @reboot
[04:05] <ikar> sacarlson, Gentoo is on /dev/sdb
[04:05] <Guest40204> Anyone have any personal experience with the new 2.6.35 kernel in Meerkat?
[04:05] <Muelli> arnotixe_: hm. I'd look at xiph.org
[04:05] <sacarlson> ikar: that's find but what partition do you have your bios boot?
[04:05] <TiK> Guest40204: I use that kernel in lucid
[04:06] <sacarlson> fine
[04:06] <scans> avi_: ist easy to use?
[04:06] <kenthree> i think this is easier than I think.. just need to run a command at boot O.o
[04:06] <edguix> this might be off topic, but can anyone point me to an RC channel?
[04:06] <ikar> sacarlson, /dev/sda
[04:06] <Soggystefan> an RC channel, edguix?
[04:06] <User_007> How can i put a new videon on my ipod? Rhythmbox ignores my videos on lib..
[04:06] <Guest40204> TiK: Are the improvements worth loading the PPA and upgrading the kernel?
[04:06] <TiK> Guest40204: what PPA
[04:06] <edguix> yes
[04:07] <Soggystefan> What exactly are you wanting to get to?
[04:07] <avi_> scans: That depends on the person using it I guess. I'm no web designer, but I used it a few years ago before I could write HTML and web code. It's free, so you might as well try it out! :D
[04:07] <mininessie> i upgraded from 10.04 to ubuntu 10.10 and haven't rebooted yet should i reboot and have it fail if it does or not and stay on as i know it work
[04:07] <TiK> Guest40204: I went to www.kernel.org
[04:07] <sacarlson> ikar: are you running grub2?  ok then just login to ubuntu and sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[04:07] <Guest40204> TiK: Oh, you compiled it from source? I heard there's a kernel PPA with it in there.
[04:07] <scans> avi_: ok thanks alot
[04:07] <User_007> i can copy from ipod to Linux, but not from linux to PC
[04:07] <avi_> mininessie: Why did you upgrade if you were worried about that ;)?
[04:07] <TiK> Guest40204: od rather compile and take te junk out and set it for my processor type :O
[04:07] <avi_> scans: No problem.
[04:07] <ikar> sacarlson, how do i check if thats the case?
[04:08] <Guest40204> TiK: Haha, good point.
[04:08] <Soggystefan> what the hell... Opera looks like it has built in Folx...
[04:08] <TiK> Guest40204: otherwise why even upgrade
[04:08] <Soggystefan> that's new O.o
[04:08] <mininessie> avi_, yes
[04:08] <User_007> i can copy from ipod to Linux, but not from linux to Ipod *****
[04:08] <sacarlson> ikar: grub2?  look in synaptic for grub2 make sure box is checked
[04:08] <Guest40204> TiK: I just wasn't sure if it would break all kinds of stuff if I went with it. Sounds like it's stable enough.
[04:08] <TiK> User_007: floola?
[04:08] <ikar> aah, yes, it's checked, sacarlson
[04:08] <TiK> Guest40204: just use your old config.. set the processer type and compile then
[04:09] <avi_> mininessie: That wasn't a yes or no question, but there's a good chance that you'll be able to reboot just fine.
[04:09] <Soggystefan> what exactly are you wanting to get to, edguix?
[04:09] <User_007> TiK, does it work on Ipod Touch?
[04:09] <TiK> Guest40204: or use the PPA :P
[04:09] <TiK> User_007: should
[04:09] <ubuntuLily> I am getting an error saying "Error Mounting proc/bus/usb press S to continue" everytime I boot up my pc
[04:09] <mininessie> avi_, okay i hope so cause alpha 1 was horrible with it
[04:10] <scans> am getting problem to make my webcam work online, how can i fix it?
[04:10] <avi_> mininessie: Yeah alpha 1 wasn't too hot for me either. keep in mind that the beta of maverick is support to come out this week, and also, that if you just want to get your hands on the latest and greatst, it's much easier and faster and risk-free to just try them out in virtualbox.
[04:10] <TiK> guest_144: I use http://linuxtweaking.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-to-compile-kernel-on-ubuntu-1004.html its helpful.. if you mess up you can always boot into an old kernel and start over
[04:10] <Soggystefan> did you pick the right connection for your cam, scans?
[04:10] <Soggystefan> which video service are you using?
[04:10] <sacarlson> ubuntuLily: what's pluged into the usb?  a disk?  is it needed?  unplug it.
[04:11] <ubuntuLily> nothing plugged in
[04:11] <ubuntuLily> I am assuming it is trying to mount something that isn't there
[04:11] <scans> Soggystefan: yes its work on my pc but not online, i try it in aMSN,emesene
[04:12] <Soggystefan> scans: so, it's not working in aMSN, or is it?
[04:12] <sacarlson> ubuntuLily: was there ever somthing pluged into usb?  is somthing in /etc/fstab  that wants to mount something that isn't there?
[04:12] <scans> not working
[04:12] <User_007> TiK,
[04:12] <User_007> Floola is a freeware application to efficiently manage your iPod or your Motorola mobile phone (any model supporting iTunes except iPhone, iPod touch).
[04:12] <ikar> when i run update-grub: "Found Gentoo Base System release 1.12.13 on /dev/sdb3"
[04:13] <Soggystefan> I'd try and help you there, scans, but I've never had that happen before to me.
[04:13] <TiK> User_007: o
[04:13] <ikar> but it doesn't show when i boot :-/
[04:13] <TiK> User_007: i sec
[04:13] <blockhead> Ag dul amach a fháil beoir, ba mhaith leat pionta?
[04:13] <ubuntuLily> neat....  Found "none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=1001,devmode=664 0 0 "
[04:13] <scans> Soggystefan: thanks
[04:13] <Sunderphon> How do I limit the amount of time a notify-send is on the screen for?
[04:13] <ubuntuLily> I am assuming that can go
[04:13] <sacarlson> ikar: make sure you scrool down if the screen is full of kernels  it might be bellow what you can see on the page.
[04:14] <TiK> User_007: You can play music from the iPod and transfer music to it by drag-and-dropping files from the Library onto the iPod icon. Please note: you might need to restart the Rythmbox for it to recognize the album art on the newly uploaded tracks.
[04:14] <ikar> sacarlson, ok. Thanks for your help. I'll test it now. Good bye
[04:14] <sacarlson> ikar: did you look with startup-manager?
[04:14] <ikar> sacarlson, yes
[04:14] <TiK> User_007: just use rythmbox
[04:14] <ubuntuLily> Commenting is #[SPACE] right?
[04:14] <plouffe> I'm trying to run ubuntu live cd on an old laptop, but it doesn't recognize the mouse. I've restarted 3 times using different external mice, but every time the mouse cursor just hangs. How could I get that to work?
[04:15] <cihan> hi
[04:15] <westley333> hi
[04:15] <cihan> :)
[04:15] <User_007> TiK, but as i said when i put A video on rhythmbox it is not shown on the list
[04:15] <sacarlson> ikar: I would think you would see it then,  did you enter as I stated sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[04:16] <cihan> vlc
[04:16] <cihan> on wine
[04:16] <cihan> :S
[04:16] <Soggystefan> I'm not seeing an ISO file for macpuppy x<
[04:16] <avg_guy> hey I was wondering if I wanted to make a multi boot dvd with os such as ( konboot , ophcrack, dls, bt4, gparted, and maybe others depending on what would fit) so I am wondering how I would do this in ubuntu or what app I could use to get this done?
[04:16] <ikar> sacarlson, i just wrote sudo grub-install
[04:17] <sacarlson> ikar: I'm not sure where that will install it
[04:17] <avi_> avg_guy: Not sure about DVDs, but usb-multipass would be great for a USB (which is usually a better solution than a DVD, providing you have one available :D)
[04:17] <ikar> sacarlson, ok, i'll try it your way.
[04:18] <dz2> is avahi a necessary part of ubuntu?
[04:18] <edguix> ~edguix
[04:19] <Soggystefan> Should I burn the dmg file to a disk, if I wanted to have macpuppy, or should I click on the ejectable thing that doesn't have a file type shown?
[04:19] <dz2> i see a weird network device called eth0:avahi when I do ifconfig: is that normal?
[04:19] <User_007> TiK, when there is a video on ipod it can be sent for linux, but it is not shown on lib's list, but i can't send any video from Linux to ipod
[04:20] <ikar> i'll try reboot now, brb
[04:20] <hiku> dz2: its not a big deal
[04:20] <zkriesse> cihan: Hi
[04:21] <sacarlson> dz2: not for me it's not but I have a static IP setup so maybe it's different
[04:21] <hiku> dz2: if you really want to learn more about avhai or "zero config" there are tons of websites regarding it.
[04:22] <dz2> hiku: the question is do I need it?
[04:22] <hiku> dz2: nope.
[04:22] <Soggystefan> Question---> Should I burn the dmg file to a disk, if I wanted to have macpuppy, or should I click on the ejectable thing that doesn't have a file type shown?
[04:22] <avi_> dz2: It's useful if you have Mac OS running devices on your network, but it's by no means an essential part of Ubuntu.
[04:22] <tpw_rules> is there any way to watch streaming netflix on ubuntu?
[04:22] <dz2> I'm trying to set up this box as a router and it is causing problems with dhcp
[04:23] <hiku> dz2: how so?
[04:23] <dz2> thanks avi, looks like a big security risk
[04:23] <sacarlson> dz2: mine is setup as a router.  I would think you would need to setup a static IP for that.
[04:24] <hiku> dz2: setting of ubuntu as a router really isn't hard "iptables" all the way
[04:24] <dz2> syslog is telling me I need a subnet for <IP_ADDRESS>. tghis address has nothing to do with me. What is it?
[04:24] <avi_> dz2: Maybe, I wouldn't tend to think so, but I don't really know how zeroconf/bonjour/avahi work. Surely you won't need them for your intended use, and you should be using ufw/iptables anyway.
[04:25] <Tempus_Fugit> hey if I installed something with adobeair how do you uninstall or
[04:25] <Tempus_Fugit> remove it
[04:25] <kisuke> ok how would i connect to a RDP session from windows?
[04:25] <sacarlson> hiku: dz2: you would also want dhcp3 server, maybe bind9.
[04:26] <dz2> yesw I have dhcp3 server
[04:27] <Scrumps> Is there anyway I can verify that I have removed all traces of mySQL, Apache, torrentflux, rtorrent, and other programs of that nature that require dependencies?
[04:27] <Tempus_Fugit> anyone know how to remove something installed with adobeair??
[04:27] <cafard74> Hello! Would someone explain to me why Lucid is so crappy ?
[04:28] <van7hu> Hell

[04:29] <Janhouse> install freezes: Unpacking librsync1 (from .../librsync1_0.9.7-7_amd64.deb) ...
[04:29] <kisuke> Soggystefan, bad disk
[04:29] <van7hu> Does anyone use JVJ modem 3G with lucid
[04:29] <cafard74> Coded1 : Serious ? Do Kubuntu works better ?
[04:29] <van7hu> ?
[04:29] <Coded1> lol yup
[04:29] <avi_> van7hu: I do it just fine on my 2008 iMac. (Windows 7, latest mac, and Ubuntu)
[04:29] <Tempus_Fugit> xangua: I tried to uninstall with sudo apt-get --purge twhirl and it said no such package existed
[04:29] <Soggystefan> kisuke: damn.
[04:29] <Janhouse> I am looking for backup tool for linux that is usable from command line
[04:29] <van7hu> avi_ : what modem do you use?
[04:30] <Coded1> cafard74, what problems are you having?
[04:30] <van7hu> is that JVJ from singapore
[04:30] <xangua> Tempus_Fugit: try apt-search twhirl
[04:30] <avi_> van7hu: What has that to do with anything?
[04:30] <cafard74> Coded1 : soundcard drivers not working
[04:30] <Tempus_Fugit> xangua: ok will try ty
[04:30] <xangua> aptitude search *** Tempus_Fugit
[04:30] <cafard74> Coded1 : In older versions I never had that
[04:30] <WXZ> can I install windows xp on top of windows xp + ubuntu?
[04:30] <cafard74> Coded1 : it just does not work
[04:31] <Coded1> cafard74, paste bin your lspci -vv / lsmod
[04:31] <Tempus_Fugit> xangua: says apt-search command not found
[04:31] <pie_time> can anyone  tell me how to get video thumbnails in nautilus? (i built my system from the minimal cd)

[04:31] <mbrigdan> Can someone help, Firefox removed all of my addons, which would normally only be a few minutes to fix, except that this is the 3rd time its happen, which is getting rather annoying. Anyone know what I can do?
[04:32] <pie_time> mbrigdan, irc.mozilla.org #firefox
[04:32] <kisuke> mbrigdan, does dmesg say any thing?
[04:32] <xangua> mbrigdan: delete your firefox profile, maybe it's currupted
[04:32] <Tempus_Fugit> xangua: it is installed in opt
[04:32] <Coded1> mbrigdan, did you install firefox from synaptic / repo or off the site?
[04:33] <sacarlson> mbrigdan: I guess you should make a backup of ~./mozilla dir next time.
[04:33] <mbrigdan> Coded1, Synaptic, but I've also tried the site (and the ppa) in an attempt to get it to work
[04:34] <mbrigdan> sacarlson, I do, in fact, have a backup. 3 of them (Incremental rsync). Copying them over did nothing
[04:34] <van7hu> quit
[04:34] <cafard74> Coded1 : hummm, its pretty long!
[04:34] <Coded1> mbrigdan, it could be that you installed the file manually as root ;)  try to run it as root from the command line : # sudo firefox &"

[04:36] <Tempus_Fugit> xangua: ok I got it removed ..had to go through SPM took longer but its gone
[04:36] <Coded1> lol oops
[04:36] <Coded1> should have reminded him to use the site ...
[04:36] <bullgard4> pie_time: What is a »video thumbnail«?
[04:37] <Crankygeek01> Hello room
[04:37] <WXZ> is it a smart idea to install windows xp on top of windows xp + ubuntu?
[04:37] <pie_time> bullgard4, it is a picture of a frame of the video that is used as an icon for the video instead of some generic icon of a video
[04:38] <cafard74> Sorry for that
[04:38] <mbrigdan> WXZ, It will overwrite grub, so you won't be able to access your ubuntu without a little fixing.
[04:38] <bullgard4> Janhouse: A backup tool for linux that is usable from command line, is rsnapshot. You will love it after having it installed and got running.
[04:38] <pie_time> can someone  tell me how to get video thumbnails in nautilus? (i built my system from the minimal cd)
[04:38] <WXZ> dang
[04:38] <WXZ> how little?
[04:38] <Crankygeek01> WXZ: why would you do something like that?
[04:38] <plouffe> running live cd on old laptop, mouse not recognized, can I somehow get to the settings menu without the mouse, cause right now I can't do blip.
[04:38] <Coded1> WXZ, if your planning to just wipe out the 2 OS's and replace it with the single OS then sure no problems
[04:39] <WXZ> because I need 1 windows xp for normal use, and 1 for messing around w/
[04:39] <Soggystefan> Umm, how do I erase this disk? I have an old copy of the first Stagecast on it, and I want to take it off so I can put macpup on it. How do I erase it?
[04:39] <Blue1> how to I navigate to applications/places/system withOUT a mouse?
[04:39] <bullgard4> pie_time: Ok. But I do not know the answer to your question.
[04:39] <mbrigdan> WXZ, you'll have to run a live cd, and (I forget the command right now), but it should be very simple
[04:39] <Coded1> WXY, you can look into VMWare Player if you have >1GB ram
[04:39] <sacarlson> pie_time:  I noticed in nautilus that you can chose to make or not make thumbnails depending on files size.   I have an old copy of the first Stagecast on it, and I want to take it off so I can put macpup on it. How do I erase it? It's not giving me and option to erase, like, it's in the un-clickable thing, where it's faded.
[04:41] <sacarlson> pie_time: on and also the location was dependent if the file was local or mounted from a network was also a config in nautilus for that.
[04:41] <bullgard4> Blue1: Start with Alt+F1.
[04:41] <pie_time> sacarlson, neither local nor networked videos have thumbnails
[04:41] <sacarlson> pie_time: maybe it already works and you just need to set the config
[04:41] <pie_time> sacarlson, what config?
[04:41] <Soggystefan> Can anyone help?
[04:42] <sacarlson> pie_time: well video file size may be big so that would triger no thumbnails if set that way
[04:42] <Soggystefan> How do I erase this disk? I have an old copy of the first Stagecast on it, and I want to take it off so I can put macpup on it. How do I erase it? It's not giving me and option to erase, like, it's in the un-clickable thing, where it's faded. <<---- A question :O
[04:42] <vishwa> which server: dns/lamp/openssh etc is best for hosting business portal
[04:42] <pie_time> sacarlson, i have it set at "show thumbnails for all files under 4GB"
[04:42] <osubuck_> hi, is there a linux equivalent to daemon tools?
[04:43] <osubuck_> trying to mount iso image
[04:43] <jlw> hm, my nautilus is set to show previews only for files smaller than 10mb, but it shows them for much larger
[04:43] <mbrigdan> osubuck_, CDemu
[04:43] <sacarlson> pie_time: well I'm sure your video isn't that big so must be something to add
[04:43] <osubuck_> a GUI application?
[04:44] <pie_time> sacarlson, yeah i dont know what  to add
[04:44] <bullgard4> Soggystefan: You usually do not erase disks but rather files or filesystems on a partition of a disk.
[04:44] <Soggystefan> Well, it's not giving me any options to mess with the disk.
[04:44] <Soggystefan> In fact
[04:44] <Soggystefan> It doesn't look like it says it's even in there.
[04:44] <mbrigdan> osubuck_, hmm, Not that I recall. Sorry. Google might be of more help.
[04:45] <osubuck_> yea thanks anyway, i've looked...
[04:45] <mbrigdan> Soggystefan, You mean like, a CD/DVD?
[04:45] <Soggystefan> Correct.
[04:45] <mbrigdan> Soggystefan, Are you sure its re-writable? Many are "write once"
[04:45] <Soggystefan> Oh :/
[04:46] <timh____> I am running 10.04, using a wireless router to a broadband (comcast) internet connection, but the command ps -A|grep dhcp turns up a blank.  Where is the dhcp client?
[04:46] <Soggystefan> Let me see if I can find a blank, and un-scratched disk...
[04:46] <mbrigdan> Soggystefan, Take a look at the disk, see if it says CD-R, or CD-RW anywhere
[04:48] <_genuser_> cleera
[04:48] <_genuser_> hello people
[04:48] <Kerrick> I have a cheap HP printer attached to a box running Arch Linux via USB, which is hard wired to my router, which runs DD-WRT with no modifications. I set up the printer through CUPS on the Arch box, choosing "Share this printer", and I can thereafter print test pages through the Arch box's CUPS interface. However, my Ubuntu laptop, connected to the router via wireless, cannot "see" the shared printer, even though ufw is disabled. What gives?
[04:48] <dougb_freebsd> timh____: try searching for just dhc
[04:48] <_genuser_> trying to install g++ and it's giving errors saying Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main binutils 2.20.1-3ubuntu
[04:49] <vishwa> is dns server good for hosing my site?
[04:49] <Kerrick> err, the first which refers to the Arch box and the second which refers to the router.
[04:49] <mininessie> is this good or bad todd@todd:~$ sudo aptitude upgrade
[04:49] <mininessie> No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
[04:49] <mininessie> 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[04:49] <mininessie> Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
[04:49] <FloodBot3> mininessie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:49] <mininessie> ok srry
[04:49] <Soggystefan> I'm trying to put in a DVD-R disk (blank), but it just ejects it when I try and put it into my disk-drive. Help?
[04:50] <_genuser_> anybody got any idea how to fix install failture?
[04:51] <Kerrick> Hmm, nvm, I was able to get it to work after I specified the IP address of the Arch box. I was just confused because it worked before without having to do so.
[04:51] <sacarlson> mininessie: are you hooked to the internet?  did you try apt-get update?
[04:51] <mininessie> sacarlson, i am running 10.10
[04:51] <jlw> are you trying to reinstall something that is already installed?
[04:51] <sacarlson> mininessie: I don't think they have any upgrades for it then
[04:51] <timh____> dougb_freebsd>Okay, there it is.  Now my real question.  To communicate with my host, VMware needs bridged networking, which requires me to install a dhcp server.  Will they conflict?
[04:52] <jlw> oh, er, sorry, read that wrong
[04:52] <itsux2bu> any way to do the functions of a router free.. if you can't afford a router box?  asking for a friend..
[04:52] <sacarlson> mininessie: but maybe they have updates
[04:52] <tpw_rules> is there any way to watch streaming netflix on ubuntu?
[04:52] <Soggystefan> I'm trying to put in a DVD-R disk (blank), but it just ejects it when I try and put it into my disk-drive. It gives me no errors when it ejects, it just pops out. Help? O.o
[04:52] <mininessie> sacarlson, well how do i know that it is actually searching repos or whatever they search for
[04:52] <dougb_freebsd> timh____: my vague recollection is that the vmware host component already had the right dhcp server bits
[04:52] <mininessie> sacarlson, i just update to 10.10 about an hour ago
[04:53] <sacarlson> mininessie: you can check your repo list and you should see activity when it tries to update with sudo apt-get update
[04:53] <mininessie> sacarlson, how
[04:53] <timh____> dougb_freebsd>don't I wish.  the manual is saying I need to setup server on the host.
[04:54] <dougb_freebsd> ah
[04:54] <sacarlson> mininessie: in synaptic is what I normaly look at repos
[04:54] <dougb_freebsd> well, you can bind it to <IP_ADDRESS>, or wherever the vmware host stuff needs it to be
[04:54] <dougb_freebsd> .... or you could just use virtualbox, which IMO is much easier to use
[04:55] <dim3000> my ubuntu sometimes starts up into Low Graphics Mode, or it just freezes on startup (these events happen randomly)
[04:55] <timh____> dougb_freebsd>I'll download it, and if it doesn't work,I'll remove it.
[04:55] <mininessie> sacarlson, huh
[04:56] <nogo> is v10.10 a LTS version?
[04:56] <nogo> who cares?
[04:56] <Soggystefan> I'm trying to put in a DVD-R disk (blank), but it just ejects it when I try and put it into my disk-drive. It gives me no errors when it ejects, it just pops out. Help? O.O <<<--- Question :?
[04:56] <jlw> mininessie, are you trying to upgrade anything in particular, or are you just trying to find out of htere are any available updates?
[04:57] <pie_time> can someone  tell me how to get video thumbnails in nautilus? (i built my system from the minimal cd)
[04:57] <mininessie> jlw, well i am trying to see if there are updates and that its actually trying to search for updates and that repos or whatever is working
[04:58] <jlw> mininessie, as far as I can tell, that just means that your system is completely up-to-date
[04:58] <gerzel> Q: Does anyone know about Virtualbox?  I have an Ubuntu Machine on a Windows7 host and need to set up a shared folder to pass files between the two.
[04:58] <michael_> ewefer rghth dgfg
[04:59] <michael_> ccv ghg fhghj nmk jyh
[04:59] <nogo> hehe
[04:59] <jlw> pie_time, did you try looking at nautilus' preferences? (edit > preferences > preview tab)
[04:59] <michael_> i want to hear from you
[04:59] <nogo> i hate it more at each marketing
[05:00] <pie_time> jlw, sure did
[05:00] <michael_> please call me
[05:00] <jlw> maybe look at them via gconf-editor?
[05:01] <nogo> michael? you are dead already
[05:01] <Soggystefan> Well, later all, I'll work out my disk issue in the morning, I suppose.
[05:01] <michael_> what do you mean
[05:02] <michael_> may i see you tomorrow
[05:02] <HermanDE> any guesses how to create a system sound from the command line?
[05:03] <michael_> no
[05:04] <michael_> who are you
[05:04] <ratdog> whats the record up time for Linux
[05:04] <pie_time> jlw, what?
[05:04] <michael_> i want to know you
[05:06] <Tempus_Fugit> Hey how do I make sure my auto complete is working say in typing file names and such
[05:06] <jlw> pie_time, if you open gconf-editor through the terminal, you can look at the nautilus settings through that. I found something in apps, nautilus, preferences. Might help.
[05:07] <shinzeh> Excuse me. I tried to play a .mp3 file using exaile, turns out I have missing codecs (I think), is there an apt-get for this?
[05:08] <shinzeh> Oh wait, here's the exact message. "You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins". :)
[05:08] <tf2ftw> I have a svn folder with perms drwxr-sr-x . My user is in the group that owns the folder yet SVN commit fails with permission error. any clues?
[05:09] <jlw> shinzeh, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Lucid <-- that should have everything you need about codecs
[05:09] <shinzeh> Thanks jlw. This is way better than what google said. :P
[05:13] <sacarlson> shinzeh: I think this is what your looking for  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[05:14] <shinzeh> Thank you. :)
[05:18] <hediyant> I'm currently booted from Ubuntu LiveUSB in nopersistent mode -- how can I get files from the root filesystem onto the USB stick?
[05:19] <jlw> hediyant, I don't think you can. At all.
[05:19] <seidos> hediyant, hmmm, you mean the file system on the hard disk?
[05:20] <john--__> good evening
[05:20] <hediyant> jlw: I have the files I want to keep in RAM in /home.
[05:21] <hediyant> jlw: I want to put them back onto my USB stick without using any other storage medium.
[05:21] <jlw> But you didn't set the usb stick up to have a separate save space?
[05:21] <john--__> anyone using subversion to store config files from servers?
[05:21] <hediyant> Good evening, john--
[05:21] <hediyant> jlw: Well, I did originally.
[05:22] <hediyant> But I was having problems with a dodgy casper file so I deleted it :P
[05:22] <jlw> I don't think it's possible to write do that usb stick while it's moutned as a read-only filesystem
[05:22] <hediyant> jlw: but there should be room on the partition :)
[05:23] <hediyant> Yeah that seems to be the problem, jlw
[05:23] <jlw> Not without that file...
[05:23] <jlw> Maybe online space?
[05:23] <hediyant> Also, jlw, does UNR actually have any advantage for netbooks over regular ubuntu?
[05:23] <jlw> Ubuntu one?
[05:24] <hediyant> jlw: Clever idea!
[05:24] <jlw> UNR Is designed for smaller screens
[05:24] <hediyant> :P
[05:24] <hediyant> Yeah, it's just it seems to me like it's got added bloat just for the sakeof making Windows users feel at home or something :P
[05:24] <hediyant> Maybe Xubuntu would be moresuitable.
[05:25] <jlw> I tried it once and the UI was extremely unresponsive, but that was  a long time ago.
[05:25] <hediyant> Oh, it's better in 9.10 than 9.04
[05:25] <hediyant> Still, clutter is cluttery and I prefer traditional GNOME menus.
[05:25] <roky> is there a way to get Ubuntu one to sign on as soon as there is an available internet connection? I always find myself having to go open it manually.
[05:26] <jlw> Hrm, I thought that was the whole point of ubuntu one.
[05:27] <hediyant> jlw: I'd like to be able to boot in persistent mode next time, but like I said, I got rid of my casper file. How can I get it back?
[05:28] <mininessie> having a problem Failed to download repository information
[05:28] <mininessie> Check your Internet connection.
[05:28] <jlw> hediyant, without formatting the stick again? Beats me.
[05:28] <hediyant> jlw: Okay... perhaps I should just go and think properly about serious solutions for using this netbook, rather than LiveUSB sticks.
[05:29] <hediyant> jlw: Anyway, thanks for helping.
[05:29] <shcherbak> lol, who can point me to mouse configuration in tty (links2+vesa)
[05:29] <jlw> no problem
[05:29] <hediyant> Bye
[05:29] <hediyant> :)
[05:29] <tpw_rules> is there any way to watch streaming netflix on ubuntu?
[05:30] <jlw> heh, welcome to my world, tpw_rules. My sad, sad world.
[05:30] <Wiesshund> Want to trade?
[05:30] <tpw_rules> heh
[05:31] <jlw> I don't think there is a good solution to streaming netflix in linux.
[05:31] <Wiesshund> How bad is your world? i may trade you
[05:31] <jlw> Well, other than this netflix issue I have, not so bad.
[05:32] <Wiesshund> hmm, wanna trade encoding a huge amount of non replaceable disney films to dvd storage?
[05:32] <jlw> I surely do not
[05:33] <Wiesshund> 80gb raw dump per film, and have to fit that into a 4gb or less mpeg2 in the end
[05:33] <tpw_rules> get a fast computer
[05:33] <jlw> Sounds slow
[05:33] <mbrigdan> Does anyone know if there is a way to make gpg encrypt a file using a key specified in a file, rather than having to import my key, use it, then delete it again?
[05:34] <dumont> how can I clean some space in /dev/root partition, it got full :(
[05:35] <Wiesshund> tpw hehe there is no such thing, atleast not in this regard. atleast the raw digitzing part is relatively painless since its done in hardware
[05:35] <tpw_rules> how long does it take per movie?
[05:35] <jlw> dumont, you can try sudo apt-get clean, to remove old temporary packages, I believe
[05:35] <dumont> i don't think its packages that take up space
[05:36] <piglit> dumont sometimes i remove the kernels i dont use anymore manually
[05:36] <Wiesshund> jlw what does netflix stream to? propriety app and container or ?
[05:36] <tpw_rules> it uses silverlight
[05:36] <tpw_rules> but i don't think moonlight will work
[05:36] <Wiesshund> silverlight the MS thing?
[05:37] <bsmith093> is there a way to search about 12000+ txt files for similarity such as a nintey percent exact match
[05:37] <sacarlson> mbrigdan: I just use gedit plugin to gpg encrypt files and seahorse to play with keys.
[05:38] <jlw> Wiesshund, I'm not sure. It seems like supporting linux would be relatively easy, though. That's what makes it aggravating.
[05:38] <Wiesshund> tpw_rules what about installing IE8 under wine and silverlight as well? no go?
[05:38] <mallory> can anyone give advice on how to fix my lucid install?
[05:38] <tpw_rules> dunno
[05:38] <dumont> apt-get clean didn't help
[05:38] <jlw> As far as I can tell, wine is a no go for netflix.
[05:38] <tpw_rules> it's supported on osx
[05:39] <dumont> i just deleted some logs and got some free space, but where are the rest of the 18GB on the root partition?
[05:39] <dumont> i remember it was only 22% full
[05:39] <dumont> now its 99% full, why?
[05:39] <Wiesshund> cat dev/root/.p0rn ?
[05:39] <Cloud> hey all, is there any way to enable framebuffer?
[05:39] <dumont> its a fking server
[05:39] <dumont> not a desktop
[05:40] <Cloud> the usual vga=789 stuff doesn't work in grub
[05:40] <avi_> Wiesshund: rofl!
[05:40] <Wiesshund> im teasing dumont
[05:40] <bsmith093> delete old downloaded packages
[05:40] <dumont> I ALREADY DID!
[05:40] <Wiesshund> Cloud 1 sec
[05:40] <dumont> apt-get clean did NOT help
[05:40] <bsmith093> then sort folders by size
[05:40] <Cloud> Wiesshund: why is the pr0n in /dev/root?
[05:40] <jlw> heh
[05:40] <pepeamid> Hi !! someone have a macbook 3.1 with the configuration file?
[05:40] <Cloud> root appears to be a home directory to me
[05:40] <bsmith093> prune whichevers taking up a massive amount of space
[05:41] <Cloud> home dirs can be in /dev?
[05:41] <pepeamid> Hi, someone have a macbook 3.1 with the Kernel's configuration file?
[05:41] <avi_> Cloud: Yeah always put it in /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome/evolution :D
[05:41] <dumont> bsmith093 i don't know what it is and how am I supposed to sort by size? if I don't know where to issue ls -l to?
[05:41] <bsmith093> check insode the biggest folder first then go from there
[05:42] <Cloud> avi_: care to explain what's so special about that directory? :p
[05:42] <mallory> i have some strange behavior with some applications. as if it's unable to modify configuration and settings files
[05:42] <Cloud> I come from OSX so I'm not all that familiar with linux paths
[05:42] <avi_> Cloud: Uhh Uhh nothing :)
[05:42] <mbrigdan> sacarlson, My problem is that my key is on a usb drive, and I don't want to import, use, then delete it every time
[05:42] <bsmith093> so is it posible to search of large blocks of exact matches in aporx 10gb of text files
[05:42] <avi_> Cloud: Oh really? I do too! Well I used to at any rate lol. When did you make the switch?
[05:43] <dumont> bsmith093 how do I find whats taking up most of the space on the root partition?
[05:43] <bsmith093> is there a gui
