[18:27] <coolcat> CARMENCERES, vá para o canal #ubuntu-es para ajuda em espanhol
[18:27] <erUSUL> Izinucs: so what was updated ? do you remember ?
[18:27] <Slart> rd1381: I'm not sure if having a separate password gives you any extra security.. but you can always run stuff like gksudo -u adminuser synaptic   to run synaptic as the adminuser instead of limiteduser
[18:27] <rd1381> Slart: i know that
[18:28] <rd1381> Slart: but it doesnt work on gui clicks
[18:28] <Izinucs> erUSUL: not specifically.. I updated another machine today (a different one) and there were some new pulseaudio libraries.. however it was a 8.04 machine not a 9.10 machine like the one I'm trying to fix..
[18:28] <rd1381> Slart: you know.. clicking and askiing for admin pass( like windows would)
[18:28] <jph_> CARMENCERES mis espanol es muy mal pero is usd ponga /join #ubuntu-es esta mas personas hablen espanol
[18:29] <jph_> is
[18:29] <erUSUL> Izinucs: really dunno; i take that you are in kubuntu seeing kmix there; and i take you already checked all channels in the mixer for mute or low volume ...
[18:29] <Slart> rd1381: doesn't work on gui clicks? I'm not sure I understand.. you mean it doesn't do it by itself when it notices that what the user is trying to do requires admin privileges?
[18:29] <Izinucs> erUSUL: yep.. (been around a while.. you might know me as Scunizi :)  )..
[18:30] <gibson> hi
[18:30] <AndreMorro[BR]> awsome
[18:30] <irene__> Hi, all. The hard drive of my laptop is dying, so i'm trying to mount its encrypted data on another ubuntu laptop. But user ids are different. Okay, i'm not very clear, but here's my question: can I create 2 entries in /etc/passwd having different usernames but the same uid/gid ?
[18:30] <pat|nG> is it possible i can copy files from a network having windows xp os?
[18:31] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, linux copy from windows or windows copy from linux?
[18:31] <rd1381> Slart: no imean many of ubuntu admin apps are icons that u click and have parameteres and stuff, and clicking on them wont work in limited account because it asks for password but neither admin passs or limited pass works
[18:31] <pat|nG> linux copy from windows
[18:31] <Izinucs> erUSUL: actually kpackagekit has a nice History feature..
[18:31] <erUSUL> Izinucs: ^.^ ok; i'm not familiar with pa admin utilities in kde... maybe it is there where the problem lies (is a mess volume contrlas in alsa and anothe bunch in pa but anyway)
[18:32] <erUSUL> Izinucs: checked the pulseaudio volume levels etc...
[18:32] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, sure, if you have ubuntu you can clic in Places -> network
[18:32] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG,  and find you machine there
[18:32] <Slart> rd1381: ah.. yes, that's true.. you'll have to start them manually from a terminal, using gksudo
[18:32] <Izinucs> erUSUL: are the pulseaudio levels controlled seperately from kmix (alsamixer)?
[18:32] <timbojimbo> my screen saver is acting buggy. Whenever I put my password in to get to my desktop the screen saver reappears frozen. I can alt-tab to different open programs but none show up. My only option has been to restart my computer every time. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and gnome
[18:33] <AndreMorro[BR]> timbojimbo, do you have desktop effects on? try disabling it
[18:33] <creative_> Hello. Are there no more device paths for usb devices(eg photo camera) in 9.10?
[18:33] <erUSUL> Izinucs: there are; do you have pavucontrol installed ?
[18:33] <Izinucs> erUSUL: nope
[18:33] <rd1381> Slart: yeah that would work but that a wordaround is'nt it? imean clicking and asking for password doesnt work and should be fixed so its a bug
[18:34] <timbojimbo> AndreMorro[BR], it is set to none
[18:34] <creative_> How can I access a USB device raw in 9.10? Theres no more /dev/sdXX
[18:34] <erUSUL> Izinucs: can you install it to check ?
[18:34] <AndreMorro[BR]> timbojimbo, have any 3D boards like Nvidia or Ati?
[18:34] <coolcat> creative_, No mre /dev/sdxx?
[18:34] <Izinucs> erUSUL: sure.. it'll pull in a bunch of gtk libraries.. but it's worth a shot
[18:34] <Enigmator> Izinucs if you have problem with sound muted, you may check if you have alsa stuff installed
[18:34] <creative_> coolcat: Not for USB devices.
[18:34] <timbojimbo> AndreMorro[BR], Yeah I have nvidia
[18:35] <AndreMorro[BR]> timbojimbo, the nvidia drivers are properly installed?
[18:35] <creative_> coolcat: Its there for my primary HD. But not for USB.
[18:35] <adalal1> heya.. im using dhcpd... is there a way to find the current leases?
[18:35] <Slart> rd1381: yes, it's a work around, indeed.   I would say that showing a password dialog where the current user password doesn't work would count as a bug.. if the user doesn't have the right permissions to run the app it should just give some kind of error, if you ask me. I would say its a bug, yes
[18:35] <sillyCEO> I have a bootable ubuntu on SD card, configured exactly the way I like it. Whats the easiest way to clone it to fresh SD?
[18:35] <pat|nG> is it possible i can copy files from a network having windows xp os?
[18:35] <timbojimbo> AndreMorro[BR], Yup
[18:35] <creative_> coolcat: But the folder opens and displays content when inserted.
[18:35] <erUSUL> !grub2
[18:35] <creative_> coolcat: But theres nothing in mtab ;(
[18:35] <jellow> sillyCEO: have a look at dd
[18:35] <creative_> coolcat: Pretty strange
[18:35] <AndreMorro[BR]> timbojimbo, its only with passwords or any kinda screensaver??
[18:35] <Izinucs> erUSUL: I'll be right back.. gotta log out and back in again
[18:36] <rd1381> Slart: anyway thanks for replys. you think i should fill arequest or but report or something in ubuntu launchpad?
[18:36] <coolcat> creative_, so you do not have the file /dev/sdb1 for example?
[18:36]  * adalal1 needs help
[18:36] <creative_> coolcat: Nope.
[18:36] <sillyCEO> jellow: I did see taht- couldn't believe it would be as easy as one command in terminal. Have you tried it?
[18:36] <AndreMorro[BR]> !ask | adalal1
[18:36] <creative_> coolcat: If I look at the path it tells me: gphoto2://[usb:002,004]/
[18:36] <Slart> rd1381: yes.. either report it as a bug or add something to the.. what's it called.. brainstorm?
[18:36] <jellow> sillyCEO: no
[18:36] <creative_> coolcat: But I need to access the FS raw
[18:37] <rd1381> Slart:thanks
[18:37] <creative_> coolcat: For running testdisk on it. Lost photos on a digicam.
[18:37] <Slart> rd1381: I would be happy to add a "me too" if you report it.. just give me the url
[18:37] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, its a raw harddrive or pendrive? is that right?
[18:37] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: Its a digital camera
[18:37] <sillyCEO> jellow - OK I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the tip.
[18:37] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, it should recoganize as a normal sdXX
[18:37] <timbojimbo> AndreMorro[BR], I have it set to Random and it is usually the dremples and a few others that do it
[18:38] <jellow> sillyCEO: Little warning be very careful with it make backups
[18:38] <AndreMorro[BR]> timbojimbo, try not using the screensavers that do that
[18:38] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: Theres nothing in dmesg about a /dev/sdXX
[18:38] <erUSUL> creative_: you will have to find a way to access it as usb storage or photorec wont work
[18:38] <Izinucs> erUSUL: suddenly and without explanation audio is working again.. not sure how.. but it is.. didn't do that after my last reboot trying to fix this..
[18:38] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, nothing saying new device pluged and stuff like that??
[18:38] <sillyCEO> jellow: thanks
[18:38] <creative_> erUSUL: Exactly.
[18:38] <erUSUL> Izinucs: magic :)
[18:38] <jellow> Izinucs: same thing happened to me =/
[18:38] <coolcat> creative_, I do not know why you don't have them, but you can create a device, but you would have to know some information about fs type etc  .. i cannot help ypu with this
[18:38] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: It does. But I think somehow they changed usb device handling in 9.10
[18:39] <Izinucs> erUSUL: the the support industry we refer to that as FM.. if you get my drift :)
[18:39] <creative_> coolcat: okay, thx anyway
[18:39] <sillyCEO> New problem: When I switch off my WIFI router, ubuntu throws up a dialog ("Authentication require by wireless network"). I'm leaving this unsupervised, so I want NO dialog... just want it to keep trying to hop back on. Any ideas?
[18:39] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, funny thing... i work with a few cameras here... they are all set to work as "usb storage device" and works smooth
[18:39] <avi_> hey, can anyone field a question about Ubuntu on a PowerBook?
[18:39] <erUSUL> creative_: maybe your camera has not that option and you have to plug the camera card  directly to the pc (via a card reader of course )
[18:39] <AndreMorro[BR]> !ask | avelldiroll
[18:39] <AndreMorro[BR]> !ask | avi_
[18:39] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: 9.10 ? Because the path that it shows in nautilus is: gphoto2://[usb:002,004]/
[18:39] <AndreMorro[BR]> avelldiroll, sorry
[18:40] <erUSUL> Izinucs: XD
[18:40] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, yeah, 9.10... what your dmesg says?
[18:40] <creative_> erUSUL: Not that I now.
[18:40] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, PVT or pastebin.com
[18:40] <avi_> Is there a reason Ubuntu gives me max 45 minutes to an hour on my powerbook? (With a newish battery)?
[18:40] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: Its only 2 relevant lines... So I paste it here
[18:41] <creative_> [79900.670088] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[18:41] <creative_> [79900.824634] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[18:41] <avi_> Because i get more than twice that with OSX
[18:41] <ode_to_joy> Hi gang, I'm trying to get wifi master mode working on my intel 5300 chip, with karmic.  But no joy.. "iwconfig wlan0 mode master" gives "SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument".  Anyone know if this chip works as an AP?
[18:41] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, awsome...
[18:41] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, afraid i cant help you
[18:41] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, let say that OSX is optimized for your hardware...
[18:41] <creative_> AndreMorro[BR]: Okay. Too bad. I guess they changed the whole USB handling for digital cameras in 9.10
[18:42] <erUSUL> creative_: as i said if your camera can nt be configured to be usb storage you will have tom plug the card directly to the computer via a card reader
[18:42] <avi_> Of course, but why should Ubuntu fail so much with power management?
[18:42] <AndreMorro[BR]> creative_, I agree wirh erUSUL
[18:42] <erUSUL> creative_: that depends on the camera not on the version of ubuntu
[18:42] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, maybe you need to do some fine-tunning
[18:42] <avi_> thats what I assumed.
[18:42] <creative_> erUSUL: Ah okay.
[18:42] <avi_> any idea on where to start?
[18:42] <avi_> im a Ubuntu noob.
[18:42] <Tijuanense> Hi I am a troll
[18:42] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, disabling services you don't need...
[18:42] <creative_> erUSUL: I just wondered because it used to have /dev/sdXX on 9.04
[18:43] <Rikval> jkjakajkaj a a troll
[18:43] <Rikval> jakjakajkajkajka
[18:43] <creative_> erUSUL: Thanks a lot. Will try to remove the card
[18:43] <Rikval> no sabes hablar español
[18:43] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, its a PPC processor right?
[18:43] <ode_to_joy> Does anyone recommend a way to set up a wifi link as an AP?
[18:43] <avi_> Oh, I was thinking more like specifying to ubuntu what my setup is
[18:43] <avi_> yeah, 1.5GHz G4
[18:43] <erUSUL> creative_: is like some mp3 players (specially ipod) they have propietary protocols (or mdp) to load files on them. so you need itunes or crap like that
[18:44] <creative_> erUSUL: Okay. I see
[18:44] <erUSUL> creative_: I just wondered because it used to have /dev/sdXX on 9.04 <<< if that's true then maybe is a config option on the camera
[18:44] <IateJesus> avi_, a quick googling says that disabling the therm module in etc modules will help
[18:44] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, hm... try powertop programa, its a nice way to start
[18:44] <creative_> erUSUL: Hm. Maybe... Trying to get a device path now when just inserting card
[18:44] <erUSUL> creative_: my phone can act as a usb storage or as a modem. is a config in the phone (appears when i plug it )
[18:44] <creative_> erUSUL: Yep, works ;)
[18:44] <coolcat> creative_, I do not know why you don't have them, but you can create a device, but you would have to know some information about fs type etc  .. i cannot help ypu with this
[18:44] <avi_> Thanks, lateJesus, I'll check that out.
[18:45] <coolcat> hi, when I access a video on Youtube I get a blank box, no place to click , nothing. Yesterday it was plays videos normally, what could have happened?
[18:45] <AndreMorro[BR]> coolcat, try updating your system (sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade)
[18:46] <hcook> howdy
[18:46] <hiexpo> coolcat: - check your firefor pluggins proballyone disabled is all
[18:48] <pat|nG> how can i put a passwd on my terminal?
[18:48] <hiexpo> just type it
[18:48] <hiexpo> you wont see it
[18:48] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, you want to be prompt a password before open terminal??
[18:48] <steffan> !details | pat|nG
[18:48] <pat|nG> like if i'll run terminal it will ask for a passwd first before it can be access
[18:49] <iceroot> pat|nG: not possible
[18:49] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, can't do it
[18:49] <pat|nG> i see
[18:49] <iceroot> pat|nG: and not necessary
[18:49] <steffan> pat|nG: aslong as you're not running as root then there won't be a problem, as most damage as a regular user can be done without terminal anyhow
[18:49] <hiexpo> yes use your login password
[18:49] <steffan> it's unnecasary
[18:50] <Enigmator> pat|nG: but you could lock  with vlock
[18:50] <SuckingGod> quit
[18:50] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, well, You can edit your menu, instead of gnome-terminal, you can put gksu gnome-terminal, so it will ask your passoword before opening the gnome-terminal
[18:50] <pat|nG> how can i access to a network with windows xp? like i'm using ubuntu and want to access a winxp computer?
[18:50] <AndreMorro[BR]> its a silly way but may work
[18:50] <hiexpo> oh you wont to lock terminal why
[18:50] <iceroot> !samba | pat|nG
[18:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> iceroot, he wants to make the reverse thing...
[18:51] <iceroot> AndreMorro[BR]: that is smbclient
[18:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> iceroot, the GUI way...
[18:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> I presume...
[18:51] <erUSUL> pat|nG: Places>Network>windows Network
[18:51] <iceroot> AndreMorro[BR]: its smbclieint in the background
[18:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> iceroot, right!
[18:52] <hiexpo> iceroot: - i am just cheecking if my messanger is working can u reply back thanks
[18:52] <pat|nG> yes but it keeps asking for a username and passwd
[18:52] <iceroot> hiexpo: test
[18:52] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, proabably because you windows is sharing with password
[18:52] <hiexpo> kool thanks
[18:52] <AndreMorro[BR]> pat|nG, OR there nathing shared, when nothing is shared in windows he'll prompt for password
[18:52] <pat|nG> but i didn't put a passwd from my winxp computer

[19:00] <Michalxo> AndreMorro[BR] thank you
[19:00] <avi_> Can anyone assist me in disabling the thermal module?

[19:01] <erUSUL> kab: if it is 64 bits it have to see the whole 4 GiB
[19:01] <erUSUL> kab: what does "uname -m" says ?

[19:04] <avi_> Is there any real danger in disabling a thermal module in Ubuntu, or should the lower-level systems manage on their own?
[19:04] <spazm_> geirha: will I be able to go from 810 to 1004?
[19:04] <spazm_> geirha: cause I just initiated the upgrade command :P
[19:04] <TheFlas> Olá alguém poderia me ajudar ?
[19:04] <AndreMorro[BR]> avi_, the lower-level should do the work
[19:04] <LjL> !br | TheFlas
[19:04] <geirha> spazm_: No, 8.10 is a regular release, so you have to go 8.10 -> 9.04 -> 9.10 -> 10.04
[19:05] <AndreMorro[BR]> TheFlas, in English here, in portuguese in PVT
[19:05] <TheFlas> LjL, fera então estou com problema no meu son e na video do meu not
[19:05] <avi_> Any reason I should hesitate disabling the thermal module as you suggested?
[19:05] <LjL> TheFlas: i don't speak portuguese
[19:05] <TheFlas> sorry
[19:05] <spazm_> geirha: ah then I will just wait for 10.04 and go all the way then... this will work for the server release I guess as well as the desktop?
[19:05] <grendal_prime> geirha: ive used debian for years but just started using ubuntu last year and started with hardy.  So the dist upgrade path for the lts is pretty painless?

[19:07] <Michalxo> AndreMorro[BR] thanks :-(
[19:07] <Slart> llslim: you could probably use apt-get update -s   to see what would happen
[19:07] <Slart> llslim: -s means simulate.. ie it doesn't do anything.. it just writes out what it would do
[19:07] <geirha> grendal_prime: It should, it's supported and should be well tested.
[19:07] <grendal_prime> but want to make sure with the ubuntu dist-upgrades because i have server critical apps running on the lts right now.
[19:08] <spazm_> geirha: perfect, then I will wait for that instead of doing all the single steps :)
[19:08] <spazm_> geirha: thanks for the tip

[19:10] <infid> where else would startup programs/daemons be executed than from somewhere in /etc? i grep'd all of /etc and its subfolders for 'syndaemon' but nothing turned up yet that program is started at startup by default in ubuntu according to ps
[19:10] <Michalxo> ah, thanks! Slart
[19:11] <llslim> Slart: apt-get upgrade -s did the trick kindof
[19:11] <saraqual> First time user for ubuntu, actually linux in a whole, any advice on documentation which I can read up on?
[19:11] <Matson> how do I start mysql?  there is no init file in init.s
[19:11] <Suhail> Is there only one root password or can someone have root access with a different password to their account
[19:11] <Slart> infid: some crontabs are located deep down in /var somewhere.. not sure what else might be in there
[19:11] <Matson> how do I start mysql?  there is no init file in *init.d*
[19:11] <Qwerty000106> i need help with ubuntu 9.10
[19:11] <Slart> infid: but /etc/ is the obvious place..
[19:11] <iceroot> Matson: /etc/init.d/mysql start  if it is installed with apt-get
[19:11] <Slart> !sudo | Suhail
[19:12] <Matson> iceroot: it is installed, but /etc/init.d/mysql is not there
[19:12] <Slart> saraqual: there is a good book.. hang on
[19:12] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get moo
[19:12] <grendal_prime> is there nautilus "ubuntu-one" integration for hardy?
[19:12] <iceroot> Matson: 9.10? installed with apt-get?
[19:12] <infid> slart well this is a program that's ran from system -> preferences -> mouse -> touchpad, but it only lets you disable/enable it there, not change the argument values
[19:13] <Matson> "mysql-common is already the newest version"
[19:13] <iceroot> Matson: mysql-server you want
[19:13] <avi_> How can I disable to password prompt when resuming from suspend?
[19:13] <Slart> saraqual: try this one http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/  .. it's free as a pdf.. it's written for 8.10 but most of the stuff is still valid
[19:13] <iceroot> Matson: sudo apt-get install mysql-server  and then  sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[19:13] <Matson> :)
[19:13] <FabioTheApe> how do i make a copy of an unprotected DVD on ubuntu?
[19:13] <geirha> infid: I'd check /etc/xdg/autostart, gdm's config or ~/.config/autostart
[19:13] <saraqual> Slart, many thanks :) i'll give it a go
[19:13] <Matson> thanks
[19:13] <Matson> looks like I just had te common and client
[19:13] <infid> geirha:  i grep'd through every file in /etc
[19:13] <FabioTheApe> Slart, great book
[19:13] <Matson> no server on this box.  :/
[19:14] <infid> geirha:  with find /etc | xargs grep -i
[19:14] <mediaprodigy> Someone in this channel recommended another channel that i can not find in the channel listing it is for musicians who use ubuntu: does anyone have that channel name?
[19:14] <geirha> infid: grep -ri pattern /etc would be more efficient, but check .config/autostart then, in your homedir
[19:14] <Qwerty000106> dont no?
[19:14] <Slart> infid: hmm.. not sure where that might be run from.. you've grep'ed the /etc folder?
[19:14] <iceroot> mediaprodigy: #ubuntu-studio  i guess
[19:14] <arand> infid: /usr/bin/syndaemon maybe?
[19:14] <FabioTheApe> media ubuntu studio?
[19:15] <Qwerty000106> need some1 good with VM's to help me
[19:15] <infid> arand:  that's a binary
[19:15] <iceroot> !ask | Qwerty000106
[19:15] <Slart> Qwerty000106: just ask your question
[19:16] <Qwerty000106> its easyer to use the query function
[19:16] <iceroot> Qwerty000106: but not here
[19:16] <mediaprodigy> iceroot: FabioTheApe: thanks.. I do not think that is it but thank you for that channel.
[19:16] <Matson> ok - the default mysql server setup misses a really important and useful step - setting up a user other than the root user
[19:16] <duffydack> Ive shared a folder with the right click in nautilus, allowed 'others' write access but cannot write to it using win7.  another problem is using 'network' in nautilus it can see my win7 pc but clicking it it cant show the shares.
[19:17] <geirha> infid: Ah, it's probably started by Xorg if it detects a synaptics touchpad
[19:17] <Matson> it would be really helpful after installing the mysql server package to not have to go do google searches to figure out how to make the database usable
[19:17] <iceroot> Matson: it is usable
[19:17] <Qwerty000106> need help, graphics card not showing on Ubuntu 9.10 VM
[19:17] <Aranwe> a
[19:17] <Kinetic|work> matson : welcome to technology :)
[19:17] <bullgard> What is the function of the program »lernid«?
[19:17] <infid> geirha: but i've grepped /etc/X11 and all its subdirs too
[19:17] <Matson> maybe even a link to something like http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/adding-users.html
[19:18] <iceroot> Matson: why? normally a user knows what he is doing
[19:18] <Slart> bullgard: http://www.jonobacon.org/2009/11/25/introducing-lernid/
[19:18] <iceroot> Matson: and if he dont know what to do, there are manpages
[19:18] <punto> hi.. I just got the package 'em8300-source', it's a kernel module, how do I compile it?
[19:18] <Kinetic|work> matson there is full docs that install with the package
[19:18] <geirha> infid: Might be hardcoded
[19:19] <iceroot> !tab | Kinetic|work
[19:19] <Kinetic|work> tab too close to  cap locl on this tiny tiny keyboard
[19:19] <Matson> fair enough, reading.  it would seem to me that creating a user with a mysql server would be a really helpful thing to automate as part of the install package
[19:19] <avi_> Is there any real danger in disabling a thermal module in Ubuntu, or should the lower-level systems manage on their own?
[19:19] <macman_>  bbl
[19:19] <Kinetic|work> Matson and dangerous
[19:20] <iceroot> Matson: no because normally you dont want a second user
[19:20] <infid> geirha: i guess i can write a new script that does a killall on that command and then runs my version
[19:20] <Matson> iceroot: all your programs should access the mysql db with the root user?
[19:21] <iceroot> Matson: and what should the script create? a second user without any rights? and if he should get some rights at setup, to what database? think about it
[19:21] <geirha> infid: Or edit xorg.conf. man synaptics
[19:21] <Matson> iceroot: I have, walk the install user through creating a database, a user, and the rights for that user
[19:22] <Matson> iceroot: that would seem more prudent than nothing
[19:22] <bullgard> Slart: I have now got an idea what lernid is for. --  Thank you. --  Can you also tell me how I can load this program or join a website 'learnid'?
[19:22] <iceroot> Matson: for that there is mysqladmin
[19:22] <infid> geirha: i dont even have a xorg.conf on this system yet it's still running that command on startup
[19:22] <iceroot> Matson: no need for doing that at the setup
[19:22] <Slart> bullgard: I have no idea.. that was just the first hit when I googled for "lernid"
[19:22] <h0rnman> Matson:  generally, I like that there are no users created by default.  In addition to avoiding the sticky topic of 'what permissions should this user have', you get some practice/refresher on creating users after a fresh install :)
[19:22] <FabioTheApe> can someone help me backup a dvd using dvdbackup?
[19:22] <bullgard> Slart: Ah! Thank  you.
[19:22] <geirha> infid: I mean edit xorg.conf rather than using syndaemon options
[19:22] <Slart> bullgard: you're welcome
[19:23] <OwaisLone> Hey
[19:23] <Matson> ok

[19:27] <pelu> k de ente
[19:27] <Out_Cold> Qwerty000106, VM uses it's own graphics system, not the host card
[19:27] <Qwerty000106> my graphics carde is not functioning on a VM of Ubuntu 9.10
[19:27] <Qwerty000106> how do i enable it?
[19:27] <Slart> Qwerty000106: is it a ubuntu host or an ubuntu guest? what vm? virtualbox? vmware? something else? 32 or 64bit? what do you mean "not showing up"? graphics cards don't usually show up and introduce themselves

[19:27] <erUSUL> pelu: escribe " /join #ubuntu-es " y dale a enter
[19:28] <Qwerty000106> dont know what bit
[19:28] <FabioTheApe> does vmware have add ons?
[19:28] <AndreMorro[BR]> FabioTheApe, yeah there is
[19:28] <YuLin> (I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 with no custom kernel whatsoever)
[19:28] <frostburn> sun-java6-plugin doesn't install the firefox jre plugin, ideas? this is on x86_64
[19:28] <pelu> no kiero
[19:28] <FabioTheApe> AndreMorro[BR], don't you have to install them to get the correct video drivers for the VM?
[19:28] <AndreMorro[BR]> FabioTheApe, yes you do
[19:29] <Purpley> Hey guys Ubuntu is starting to get extremely slow and lag and I think its time for a fresh install, right now im backing everything up to a seperate partition but I just want to know, are there any distro's that are really customizable and a little more advanced than ubuntu?
[19:29] <Qwerty000106> i have a 512mb integrated Graphics card
[19:29] <erUSUL> frostburn: in 64 bit use the icedtea one
[19:29] <FabioTheApe> problem solved then?
[19:29] <lyhana8_> hi, I can't launch firefox anymore, even in -safe-mode nothing come up
[19:29] <lyhana8_> I only got this message : (firefox:18051): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times
[19:29] <blakkheim> Purpley: there are many
[19:29] <Maletor> Why does Dolby digital work in XBMC but DTS does not? I have 7.1 speakers.
[19:29] <treble54> anyone know where I find the locations of all the apps listed in the SLAB menu (under More Applications) ?
[19:29] <frostburn> erUSUL, it's actually not working in my colleagues 32bit ubuntu either
[19:29] <geirha> frostburn: Try: ''sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun'', then restart firefox, and check about:plugins
[19:29] <Out_Cold> Purpley, try slax lol... no just kidding don't try that... but use ubuntu and customize it any way you want
[19:30] <blakkheim> Out_Cold: any binary distro (such as ubuntu) can't really be "customized" all that much unless you want to manually update your compiled packages
[19:30] <h0rnman> VMWare, in my experience, does not have the ability to load anything but the default vga drivers
[19:30] <pat|nG> to all newbies like me! don't attempt to use linux distro! u'll be addicted! bwahahahahaha! like me! LMAO!
[19:30] <tripps> hello. I'm trying to get ffmpeg to play 3gpp files. I'm trying to follow the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg but they are very unclear and don't flow. Could someone direct me the instructions I should follow for jaunty? I've done everything it indicates but still no success
[19:30] <FabioTheApe> Purpley, check out unity lilnux
[19:30] <FabioTheApe> linux*
[19:30] <Purpley> Out_Cold, I will probably alawys use ubuntu and fall back to it if I have problems since I have enough space on my HDD's I just want to explore other distros
[19:30] <infid> where is system->Prefs->session in karmic?
[19:30] <tripps> s/play/convert ffmpeg files is what I meant
[19:30] <YuLin> anyone for my Mighty Mouse, please? :s
[19:30] <AndreMorro[BR]> infid, in the place you just wrote
[19:30] <blakkheim> Purpley: for ultimate customization, try gentoo.
[19:30] <Slart> infid: isn't it called startup applications?
[19:30] <geirha> infid: s/session/startup applications/
[19:31] <FabioTheApe> blakkheim, unity linux :P
[19:31] <infid> geirha: because that's where the command i'm lookin for on startup is supposed tob e being called from but i dont see it in there
[19:31] <Qwerty000106> so is there any way at all to get the graphics working?
[19:31] <sillyCEO> Booting up ubuntu on my netbook right from the SD card. Would it be faster with a better, more expensive SD card?
[19:32] <Purpley> blakkheim, is it more of a terminal line distro or does it have graphics?
[19:32] <FabioTheApe> qweqweqwe, install the the quest additions
[19:32] <frostburn> geirha, yeah, it responds with no alternatives, so it's already set as the default
[19:32] <AndreMorro[BR]> sillyCEO, theres an... High Speed SD card... you should check that out
[19:32] <blakkheim> Purpley: terminal of course
[19:32] <Out_Cold> Purpley, gentoo IMO was the hardest to install, but red hat or suse are very formidable distros
[19:32] <h0rnman> Qwerty:  not that I have ever found...If you are running in a virtual instance, you will be stuck with basic graphics...you may want to try Wubi though
[19:32] <FabioTheApe> Purpley, Unity Linux installs on a live disc
[19:32] <Maletor> Why does Dolby digital work in XBMC but DTS does not? I have 7.1 speakers
[19:32] <llslim> Slart: apt-get -uV upgrade list the packages that will be upgraded.. thanks for pointing me in right direction.
[19:32] <treble54> anyone know where I find the locations of all the apps listed in the SLAB menu (under More Applications) ? I'm sure there's a folder that has all the apps listed or an xml file of some sort I imagine
[19:32] <dury> hi there
[19:33] <Slart> llslim: ah.. nice.. didn't know apt had a switch for that.. good hunting there =)
[19:33] <Purpley> Out_Cold, I tried installing fedora I gave up after burning 4 cds
[19:33] <geirha> frostburn: Then restart firefox properly. File -> Quit, not the X at the upper right. Then start it again and check if java is listed in "about:plugins"
[19:33] <dury> anyone from down under
[19:33] <Profion> #ubuntu-br
[19:33] <Out_Cold> Purpley, usually you only "need" one disc, the rest are in case you don't have net..
[19:33] <Profion> #ubuntubr
[19:33] <AndreMorro[BR]> Profion, /j #ubuntu-br
[19:33] <Qwerty000106> bcos i need to download Wine and it says i dont have the right hardware architechure
[19:33] <guntbert> !ot | dury
[19:33] <Purpley> Ooooh
[19:33] <Profion> AndreMorro[BR], thanks
[19:34] <sillyCEO> AndreMorro{BR: I see there are 'high speed' SD cards.. just wasn't sure if it would make a difference in bootable time, and running apps time...
[19:34] <Purpley> I guess I'll try fedora thanks guys
[19:34] <Qwerty000106> and i dont have a graphics or sound card
[19:34] <llslim> Slart: wonders when you/i/we rtf manpage :)
[19:34] <AndreMorro[BR]> sillyCEO, i sure do
[19:34] <AndreMorro[BR]> sillyCEO, It* sure do
[19:34] <Qwerty000106> well on Ubuntu
[19:34] <FabioTheApe> sillyCEO, probably not to the average person
[19:34] <Slart> llslim: hehe
[19:35] <FabioTheApe> although, when i installed Ubuntu it was light years faster then Windows XP
[19:35] <h0rnman> Qwerty:  I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say
[19:35] <infid> does karmic not use GPG ? i never see it popup like i did in jaunty
[19:35] <Out_Cold> FabioTheApe, side by side with new installs, they both run fairly fast
[19:35] <frostburn> geirha, still not there, i'll futz with it later, thanks for the help
[19:35] <sillyCEO> AndreMorro{BR: FabioTheApe: Maybe I'll grab a fast SD and do a little test. Whats the easiest way to clone SD --> SD ?
[19:36] <FabioTheApe> sillyCEO, maybe clonezilla?
[19:36] <gotsanity-book> I need a suggestion of the best way to sync a set of directories/files with another ubuntu machine on the network
[19:36] <AndreMorro[BR]> sillyCEO, clonezilla or the old dd
[19:36] <Suhail> So I added a group permission to some files but I still can't write to the files, any idea why? I am part of the group
[19:36] <h0rnman> gotsanity:  try rsync
[19:37] <Slart> gotsanity-book: another vote for rsync
[19:37] <Purpley> If I keep ubuntu on my computer and install fedora on a seperate partition do I need a seperate swap for fedora?
[19:37] <BuGo_laptop> hi. if i have Dual channel DDR3 ram. can i take one chip out?
[19:37] <AndreMorro[BR]> Purpley, no you dont... they can all use the same swap space
[19:37] <BuGo_laptop> it will still work?
[19:37] <gotsanity-book> Purpley, no, one swap is good enough
[19:37] <Purpley> Alright
[19:37] <AndreMorro[BR]> BuGo_laptop, yes
[19:37] <BuGo_laptop> tnz
[19:37] <BuGo_laptop> tnx
[19:37] <AndreMorro[BR]> yw

[19:39] <obiwan_> hi please i need some hlp, i wiped up the .gnupg dir of my usb disk cause it's hidden and i removed it's up in hierarchy dir. I'm reading the DataRecovery ubuntu help guide, but i'm in doubt about using gddrescue, could any expert in recovery help me? thanks
[19:39] <Suhail> llslim: I don't know what that is but I am guessing I need to chmod the files so group has write access =)
[19:40] <OwaisLone> ubottu: Ok.. I'm new..... and learning
[19:40] <Myrtti> OwaisLone: may I ask why do you need to change the release name of your mint?
[19:40] <FabioTheApe> OwaisLone, then i an running karmic
[19:40] <Suhail> or not..........
[19:40] <Suhail> wtf

[19:41] <FabioTheApe> OwaisLone, i have already told you once, the only way to change your OS is to install a different one
[19:41] <AndreMorro[BR]> silly question, How do I get out of away in xchat??
[19:41] <Myrtti> OwaisLone: you're on the road to breaking your system, possibly very badly

[19:42] <FabioTheApe> no...
[19:42] <llslim> Suhail: see if getfacl <file> outputs anything
[19:42] <OwaisLone> FabioTheApe: I just want a quick hack. Why the trouble of installing all over again....
[19:42] <FabioTheApe> AndreMorro[BR], to come back after being away you press alt+a
[19:42] <OwaisLone> MyrttiL I dont think so + quite used to that
[19:42] <AndreMorro[BR]> FabioTheApe, I'm using pt_br so the shortcuts may vary
[19:43] <AndreMorro[BR]> Tchan Tchan!!
[19:43] <AndreMorro[BR]> its Ctrl Alt A

[19:46] <AndreMorro[BR]> Suhail, owner, group, anyone else in the system
[19:46] <Suhail> okay
[19:46] <guntbert> !list | giuseppe_
[19:47] <geirha> Suhail: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[19:47] <Suhail> AndreMorro[BR]: so 770 must be common
[19:47] <AndreMorro[BR]> Suhail, sure
[19:47] <wasutton3> would mounting a drive while dd is copying from it be a bad idea?
[19:48] <AndreMorro[BR]> wasutton3, yes it is
[19:48] <wasutton3> AndreMorro[BR] i thought so
[19:48] <ta> hello, is there a program similar to notepad++???
[19:48] <wasutton3>  ta, gedit
[19:49] <ta> wasutton3, I need something more advanced...
[19:49] <AndreMorro[BR]> ta, geany
[19:49] <reginald_> need help installing drivers for nvidia 5200 geforce fx video. Properity drivers only give me 640x300
[19:49] <wasutton3>  ta, what for?
[19:49] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, 640x300?? is that a netbook?
[19:50] <Myrtti> ta: you can extend gedit with plugins...
[19:50] <reginald_> no It's a desktop
[19:50] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, did you used the Restricted Drivers that come with ubuntu?
[19:51] <Suhail> AndreMorro[BR]: can you add multiple groups to a file?
[19:51] <ta> wasutton3, AndreMorro[BR], Myrtti, thanks, I found SciTE
[19:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> Suhail, not that I know of
[19:51] <Suhail> AndreMorro[BR]: okay =(
[19:51] <reginald_> yes and they only give me 800x600
[19:51] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, after installing it, are you using the nvidia-preferences from the System menu? or the Video app?
[19:52] <FabioTheApe> how do i play a dvd on ubuntu?
[19:52] <AndreMorro[BR]> FabioTheApe, use totem
[19:52] <Slart> !dvd | FabioTheApe
[19:52] <FabioTheApe> is that the one that is built in?
[19:52] <reginald_> nvidia-preferences
[19:52] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, funny... does your monitor supports 1024 or more?
[19:53] <luisgmarine> hey guys if I want to install a new nvidia card, is there a chance of messing up my system if I just plug it in and boot up?
[19:53] <FabioTheApe> wow that was to easy i just had to click on a link....
[19:53] <AndreMorro[BR]> luis_lopez, usually just plugin and boot-up
[19:53] <reginald_> it supports 1280x1024
[19:54] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, usually just plugin and boot-up, dont forget to install the drivers after booting
[19:54] <h0rnman> reginald_, did you try adding lines to xorg.conf for the supported modes for your monitor?
[19:54] <meestermole> hello room
[19:54] <jurisz> Hello ubuntu users! Are here Chineese here? What does word "longsu" means? tnx!
[19:54] <Trek> !offtopic | jurisz
[19:54] <reginald_> I'm a newbee and don't know how to do that
[19:54] <jellow> how i use a .patch file?
[19:54] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], ok.  just asking because I think my DVI port on my monitor is broken.  Ubuntu doesn't seem to detect my monitor using DVI but it can detect it when I  use RBG.  I bought a new 1GB 250OC video card hoping that might fix the problem
[19:54] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, thats pretty funny cuz I use a FX5200 also in a 19' screen and everything worked almost out of the box... installed the drivers reboot, and BANG! 1280x1024
[19:55] <Suhail> AndreMorro[BR]: does other include root?
[19:55] <gandhijee> hey, how do i change my default window manager?
[19:55] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], I already have an nvidia card installed with the 185 driver.  Should I do anything to it before I install the new video card?
[19:55] <gandhijee> i don't want to use gnome, i just want gdm for a display manager
[19:55] <Suhail> nvm
[19:55] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, you're swapping from nvndia to nvidia?
[19:55] <meestermole> would this be the proper channel to ask about an odd behavior having to do with Ubuntu network settings (possibly)?
[19:55] <reginald_> I've tried ubuntu several times and can never get the resolution to work right.
[19:56] <FabioTheApe> !ask
[19:56] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], yeah.  I"m switching my 8800GTX for a GTS 250 OC
[19:56] <luisgmarine> reginald_, have you installed the proper drivers for you video card?
[19:56] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, I would recomend you to remove the actual drivers (nvidia-180 I guess) then swapping and adding the new one (196 i guess)
[19:57] <AndreMorro[BR]> if you have isntalled the latest (190 +) don't need to
[19:57] <Trek> meestermole, just ask your question, don't ask to ask a question
[19:57] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], are the 196 in the repos?
[19:57] <traco_> !kernel
[19:57] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, not sure... thats why I said that
[19:57] <meestermole> I cannot seem to access any web-config type of device with my Ubuntu machine. websites load fine. other computers on my network access them fine also (another ubuntu, and an XP)
[19:58] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, the most recent is 185 in the repos
[19:58] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, you can do by hand...
[19:58] <reginald_> which one's are the proper one's to install
[19:58] <h0rnman> reginald_, which release are you on?
[19:58] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], yeah I've done it before.  But I'm wondering if that could be the cause of Ubuntu not recognizing my monitor in DVI mode
[19:58] <ewok> does anyone have a major delay when using grub2??
[19:58] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, its possible, cant be sure till you tested
[19:58] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], I need to find someone else with a DVI port on their computer to hook up to my monitor so that I can know for sure my monitor is not the one at fault.
[19:59] <pat|nG> thanx guys! got to go! see yah!
[19:59] <reginald_> Ubuntu 9.10
[19:59] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], ok I'm just going to shut off my computer, swap out the video cards and hope for th ebest
[19:59] <luisgmarine> see you guys in a few if it works =)
[19:59] <Trek> anyone familiar with what java-gcj does and if I need it for anything?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/362827/  <-- those are my java runtimes, it shows up there
[19:59] <AndreMorro[BR]> reginald_, System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[19:59] <theduke> general shell question: is every function in a shell (bash) script run in a subshell?
[19:59] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, good look, tell us back the results
[19:59] <tobiasz> I'm I'm an idiot
[19:59] <h0rnman> reginald_, silly questions, but have you updated everything via Update Manager or APT?
[20:00] <Trek> meestermole, what do you mean by web-config type of devices?
[20:00] <meestermole> Trek, i have an  Linksys NSLU2 and a Dslink NAS device
[20:00] <meestermole> Ive been able to access them with this machine before
[20:01] <Trek> you tried rebooting the devices, meestermole (unplug and plug back in)
[20:01] <AJC_Z0> theduke: No, functions and aliases should run in the current shell though the scope of local variables is limited to the function
[20:01] <AJC_Z0> theduke: But don't believe me. As in #bash
[20:01] <ewok> another question if ayone can help?
[20:02] <Trek> !ask | ewok
[20:02] <meestermole> i have - and the router as well. all other machines can hit those pages. if i use this same machine, booted into windows it goes there. if i use vmware xp thru ubuntu it hangs
[20:02] <lorenzo_> sera
[20:02] <Trek> meestermole, then I'm not sure what the issue is, perhaps others can assist you.  sorry.
[20:02] <meestermole> i have narrowed it down to this install of ubuntu, and possible sesttings changes.
[20:02] <bruntib> hello everyone!
[20:02] <AndreMorro[BR]> meestermole, your briding the connections in VMware?
[20:02] <blueyed> Is there a linux app to create nice collages like with Picasy?
[20:03] <blueyed> *Picasa
[20:03] <ewok> any easy way of writing data to hfs+?
[20:03] <bruntib> i'd like to ask about repositories
[20:03] <AndreMorro[BR]> blueyed, there is picasa for linux! picasa.google.com
[20:03] <AndreMorro[BR]> !ask | bruntib
[20:03] <fahadmoideen> i have a small issue. i cant see my minimized windows as buttons in any of the panels. need help. plzzz.
[20:03] <un2him> hello everybody
[20:03] <meestermole> yes, and it works fine for the web, just not config pages to local network devices
[20:03] <mnetizen> blueyed: why not use Picasa for Linux? Works nicely with Ubuntu, and others.
[20:03] <reginald_> tried them drivers and i get a very low resolution
[20:03] <AndreMorro[BR]> fahadmoideen, left click in the panel, Add, Find (in english) the program list (something like it)
[20:03] <blueyed> AndreMorro[BR]: I know, but it's not really free.
[20:04] <bruntib> when are repositories updated?->I mean I'd like to use qt4.6 but I can't find it
[20:04] <blueyed> mnetizen: ^^
[20:04] <geirha> fahadmoideen: right click panel -> add to panel -> window list
[20:04] <infid> where should i add a script to run whenever i start up and make sure it runs dead last after all the other startups cripts?
[20:04] <meestermole> but oddly i can view the config page to my router
[20:04] <theduke> AJC_ZO: will do, thanks
[20:04] <AndreMorro[BR]> meestermole, see, if you VM machine works in a differnte subnet, it probably dont hit others devices on the local net, to do that you proabably need to bridge the VM connection with you local connection
[20:04] <ewok> i just did a fresh install of 9.10 and the grub2 boots real slow and im kinda stumped on this hfs+ on linux thing!
[20:05] <fahadmoideen> thnx buddy. got it done.. thnx alot. need any help???
[20:05] <watersj_> hello, looking for an inexpensive sound card <$15us, any suggestions?
[20:06] <Trek> !offtopic | watersj_
[20:06] <guntbert> !hcl | watersj_
[20:06] <meestermole> AndreMorro, i only used VMware to test, and narrow down my problem to my ubuntu installation. i can connect to the NSLU2 via it's IP in Firefox using other computers on my network, including this very machine dual booted into windoze. i am unsure of what has changed
[20:07] <SuspectZero> hey there
[20:07] <SuspectZero> quick question, im looking at some stuff for karmic and i see that it has an xbased boot splash, is that possible already through an installion of some package?
[20:07] <SuspectZero> or is that specifically for karmic?
[20:07] <meestermole> i have re-configured my connection  trhough network manager, checking settings against my netbook setup of ubuntu, which works to access the page fine
[20:08] <terje_> hi, gnome-panel is in an endless loop of crashing/restarting on my desktop. Any pointers on where to look to fix that?
[20:08] <meestermole> i even reset the iptables of this installation of ubuntu. nothing has changed
[20:08] <ranjan> hello every body i am facing an problem with an internal ntfs partition it is showing an un mount option  and i wish to disable this for that drive ... can any body have any idea how to do that  on ubuntu  9.10 any help'll be of great help
[20:08] <DreamDemon> meestermole, Did you flush the routing cache afterwards?
[20:08] <geirha> terje_: See if it drops any messages in ~/.xsession-errors
[20:08] <soreau> SuspectZero: afaik, it's specifically for karmic with open source graphics drivers
[20:09] <bruntib> Can anyone tell me when will I be able to download qt4.6 from default karmic repository?
[20:09] <reginald_> yes everything is updated
[20:09] <bruntib> quite slowly:S
[20:09] <terje_> thanks geirha
[20:09] <terje_> checking
[20:09] <bruntib> I still can't find it
[20:09] <meestermole> i do not understand why it suddenly will not  access pages of these devices. furthermore it seems like firefox also "sees" the page header on the DLINK device page, but still does not load
[20:10] <meestermole> is it ok to paste the commands that i used in the ip-table reset?
[20:10] <PHughes> I just upgraded to 9.10 - now I can no longer log in (using gdm) to fluxbox -- anyone have an idea how to troubleshoot this, or where to look for clues?
[20:10] <Carlis> hi
[20:10] <geirha> bruntib: Unless there's a special exception for qt, you won't see any new version of it in karmic's repositories
[20:10] <Carlis> I need help
[20:10] <PHughes> trying to log in to fluxbox just dumps me back to the login screen
[20:11] <Slart> PHughes: have you checked the logs? perhaps fluxbox doesn't want to start? or X crashes?
[20:11] <ranjan>  i am facing an problem with an internal ntfs partition it is showing an un mount option  and i wish to disable this for that drive ... can any body have any idea how to do that  on ubuntu  9.10 any help'll be of great help
[20:11] <meestermole> DreamDemon, here is what i did to flush the ip tables
[20:11] <PHughes> Slart: yes, but I either can't find it or don't know where to look
[20:11] <meestermole> sudo iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
[20:11] <meestermole> sudo iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
[20:11] <meestermole> sudo iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
[20:11] <meestermole> sudo iptables -F
[20:11] <meestermole> sudo iptables -X
[20:11] <Suhail> so if "others" in permission is 7 that means anyone on the system that has an account can rwx?
[20:11] <FloodBot3> meestermole: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:12] <infid> whenever i ping an internet site from my netbook it does it right away, but whenever i ping a local computer it says 'Destination host unreachable'. However, it only does this for a few minutes everytime i wake from suspension. Is there a way to force linux to find routes to computers on my LAN quicker?
[20:12] <Carlis> who can help me ??
[20:12] <Gnea> !ask | Carlis
[20:12] <Slart> PHughes: I think errors would show up in the syslog /var/log/syslog
[20:12] <Carlis> pl
[20:12] <Carlis> ok
[20:12] <bruntib> I have already tried to build qt that I downloaded from the official site but I had bad experiences, that's why I'm waiting on repository update... But thanks for the answer:)
[20:12] <Carlis> I am going to install Ubuntu in advance mode
[20:12] <meestermole> my apologies - i used the method here to flush the iptables : http://www.prash-babu.com/2008/10/how-to-flush-or-remove-all-iptables.html
[20:12] <DreamDemon> While doing a custom compile for my server ( HP-DL385) I cant seem to get all the way through the compile without it bombing/not finishing.  Stamp is disabled along with a ton of other un-necessary thinsg that I dont even have hardware for.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d449faf50
[20:13] <Carlis> The disk has 81.956 mb
[20:13] <Slart> !enter | Carlis
[20:13] <Gnea> Carlis: try to explain this all at once, if you can
[20:13] <DreamDemon> meestermole, did you flush the route tho?
[20:13] <DreamDemon> meestermole, from the route command?
[20:13] <infid> how can i bring up 'wmaster0' ?
[20:13] <janisozaur> i have a pdf, it doesn't display correctly due to missing fonts. how do i know what fonts am i missing?
[20:14] <Gnea> infid: sudo ifconfig wmaster0 up
[20:14] <geirha> bruntib: During development of an ubuntu release, packages are updated regularly ... until a certain date (package freeze). After that, no new versions will be added, only security updates or otherwise important bug fixes.
[20:14] <Suhail> So I added myself to a group, chown'd the folder to owner:<group i made>, and set the chmod as 770, and I can't cd into it. When I do id `whoami` it says I am apart of that group. Any ideas?
[20:14] <meestermole> DreamDemon, i am unaware of how to do so
[20:14] <Slart> janisozaur: try running the pdf viewer from a terminal.. perhaps it will show some kind of error
[20:14] <luisgmarine> AndreMorro[BR], sweet everything seems to be working great, now I just have to try my connecti via a DVI cable and see if that might work =\
[20:15] <Matson> is there a way to repair files on an already installed package?
[20:15] <FabioTheApe> I have a strange problem
[20:15] <infid> does karmic not use GPG ? i never see it popup like i did in jaunty
[20:15] <janisozaur> Slart: tried that already, evince says nothing
[20:15] <Carlis> I am going to install Ubuntu in advance mode. The disk has 81.956 mb. I have to create 3 partitions. How do i do it ?
[20:15] <Matson> to "re-install" over hte files that are there from the package
[20:15] <bruntib> ok, thanks:)
[20:15] <DreamDemon> meestermole, Check your routes and see if the information you set up with iptables still exists
[20:15] <ikonia> Carlis: the installer will guide you
[20:15] <FabioTheApe> I uh.. am watching a dvd with totem
[20:16] <Slart> janisozaur: hmm.. then I don't know, sorry
[20:16] <FabioTheApe> but in order to watch it I have to right click and select open with movie player
[20:16] <Trek> Matson, go into synaptic, find the package, and select "Mark for Reinstallation"
[20:16] <geirha> infid: Packages are still signed with gpg
[20:16] <meestermole> DreamDemon, i will try that and report back momentarily
[20:16] <Gnea> Carlis: when you get into advanced mode, it will show you the disk as a whole unit, likely with pre-existing partitions there. by clicking on them, different buttons will become available for use.
[20:16] <FabioTheApe> if i open totem first it will tell me that the dvd can not be opened
[20:16] <AndreMorro[BR]> luisgmarine, great
[20:16] <fahadmoideen> is ubuntu compatible with lenovo 3000G500 laptops?
[20:16] <Carlis> I know but I have to create partition
[20:16] <Matson> Trek: what is synaptic?  I don't run a gui
[20:16] <Trek> hold on, Matson
[20:16] <DreamDemon> meestermole, I'm going to guess that the routing information is still in cache and is why your still awry
[20:16] <ikonia> Matson: use apt then
[20:17] <onetinsoldier> Matson: ok, for command line --> apt-get install --resinatll <package>
[20:17] <geirha> Matson: Or sudo aptitude reinstall <package>
[20:17] <onetinsoldier> Matson: ok, for command line --> apt-get install --reinstall <package>
[20:17] <FabioTheApe> is that a known issue with totem?
[20:17] <Trek> Matson: sudo apt-get install --reinstall <packageName>
[20:17] <Gnea> Carlis: which is one of the buttons that becomes illuminated for use. try using it and see what happens - just remember, you can press the 'back' button and restart it and it won't actually write or erase anything until you're sure.
[20:18] <Matson> thanks Trek geirha onetinsoldier ikonia
[20:18] <Carlis> ok
[20:18] <Carlis> Thanks bye
[20:18] <Trek> no problem, Matson
[20:18] <onetinsoldier> MatBoy: you're welcome. cheers
[20:18] <onetinsoldier> MatBoy: oops. sorry.. wrong nick
[20:19] <Trek> anyone familiar with what java-gcj does and if I need it for anything?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/362827/  <-- those are my java runtimes, it shows up there
[20:19] <Suhail> So I added myself to a group, chown'd the folder to owner:<group i made>, and set the chmod as 770, and I can't cd into it. When I do id `whoami` it says I am apart of that group. Any ideas?
[20:19] <Trek> anyone familiar with what java-gcj does and if I need it for anything?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/362827/  <-- those are my java runtimes, it shows up there.  Can I safely remove it?
[20:19] <meestermole> frustrating
[20:19] <FabioTheApe> I am very frustrated with my current state of being....
[20:20] <meestermole> Dream Demon
[20:20] <zamba> i have a problem when i click on terminals in X.. more often than not, it's interpreted as a double click
[20:20] <meestermole> using the networking utility, i see no routing information
[20:20] <blueyed> AndreMorro[BR]: picasa segfaults in Lucid.. :/
[20:20] <daedhel> zamba: please explain more
[20:21] <meestermole> under 1pv4 settings, routing - there is nothing entered
[20:21] <inko> im installing ubuntu 9.10 64bit, im partitioning my drive to 50gb /home and 50gb / how much swap space should i use?
[20:21] <zamba> daedhel: when you click on a window, it should just make it active.. but when you double click on an image, it tries automatically selecting text for copying..
[20:21] <geirha> Suhail: What's the error message exactly?
[20:21] <Trek> inko: the same amount of memory as your RAM + 1GB
[20:21] <FabioTheApe> anyone know anything about UBUNTU, I am about to uninstall it if I don't get some answers!
[20:21] <Trek> !ask | FabioTheApe
[20:21] <inko> ok thanks Trek
[20:22] <zamba> daedhel: but then you explicitly have to double click it.. now, after upgrading to 9.10, i get this behavior when single clicking.. not all the time, but often enough so that's annoying
[20:22] <guntbert> inko: that depends on your RAM and if you want to "suspend to disk"
[20:22] <FabioTheApe> I have asked about 4 times
[20:22] <Trek> whoops, wronng !
[20:22] <Trek> FabioTheApe: just ask again
[20:22] <deshymers1> I have the dell v10 running karmic NBR, and I'm pretty sure this netbook has a bluetooth card it says so on the dell site, but when I run the command hciconfig -a it doesnt report any devices, is there anything else I can check?
[20:22] <Trek> FabioTheApe: we don't always see your messages
[20:22] <geirha> Suhail: and «ls -ld /path/to/folder» shows drwxrwx--- ?
[20:22] <daedhel> zamba: maybe setting your double click sesibility lower in settings ?
[20:22] <Trek> FabioTheApe: note I've asked a question 3 times and haven't gotten an answer yet
[20:22] <inko> guntbert, how can i tell how much ram i have?
[20:22] <Suhail> geirha: had to reconnect
[20:22] <zamba> daedhel: it's not the double click setting
[20:22] <toastedmilk> I'm trying to set up dual monitors on an HP Media Center PC that has a vga port that isn't on the graphics card.  How do I get ubuntu to recognize it?
[20:22] <zamba> daedhel: because that's set high enough
[20:22] <rasstar> i just installed ubuntu.  i swear it looks the same as when i tried it 3 years ago
[20:22] <FabioTheApe> Trek, when I try to play a DVD using TOTEM it won't let me unless I right click on the dvd and tell it to open using the movie player
[20:23] <iceroot> rasstar: server-edition? :)
[20:23] <rasstar> desktop
[20:23] <rasstar> why no ui updates
[20:23] <Trek> what do you want it to actually do, just open automatically into movie player?
[20:23] <usr13_> Just got an email from someone asking how to configure "ageresoftmodem" on Ubuntu 9.10.  I have no idea what to tell them.
[20:23] <daedhel> zamba: i don,t really have an aswer for you question, sorry, but you might wanna try Terminal from the xfce suite. I like it a loot
[20:23] <Trek> FabioTheApe, what do you want it to actually do, just open automatically into movie player?
[20:24] <Matson> anyone running wordpress on ubuntu?  there how do I keep it up to date?  wordpress is now running, but the tools says to upgrate and the upgrade fails (2.7.1 -> 2.9.1)
[20:24] <FabioTheApe> Trek, I want to be able to open up Totem, and click file, and then click play dvd
[20:24] <FabioTheApe> but when i do that Trek I get an error "can't open DVD"
[20:24] <Trek> i got a similar issue, but I don't know how to resolve it
[20:24] <ta> how can I do extended desktop optiplex gx620. I tried using the standard configurations, but once I set the extended desktop, the computer freezes and I have to restart it.
[20:24] <daedhel> toastedmilk: you have to setup your videocard drivers accordingly. what is it? nvidia or ati ?
[20:24] <FabioTheApe> I was just wondering if it was me, or a known issue
[20:24] <guntbert> inko: you see it when booting - or you start the live system and there system/administration/system monitor - on the system tab
[20:25] <usr13_> I guess maybe just tell them to go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[20:25] <inko> guntbert 3gb
[20:25] <DreamDemon> While doing a custom compile for my server ( HP-DL385) I cant seem to get all the way through the compile without it bombing/not finishing.  Stamp is disabled along with a ton of other un-necessary thinsg that I dont even have hardware for.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d449faf50
[20:25] <Kinetic|work> FabioTheApe, Trek , ubuntu doesnt come out of the box with libdvdcss .. you will have to google search to find how to install. be aware its illegal in the u.S without a license
[20:26] <ikonia> DreamDemon: what are you compiling ?
[20:26] <toastedmilk> daedhel, ati, but the ati card is lower on the case and has dvi ports.  there is a vga port that is on the upper part of the back of the case, that isn't on the graphics card
[20:26] <guntbert> inko: do you want to suspend to disk?
[20:26] <saraqual> Well, seems the installation went all good, didn't lose any of my old ntfs patitions, except the one intended for ubutu
[20:26] <FabioTheApe> Kinetic|work, as I have said it works, just not the way expected
[20:26] <DreamDemon> ikonia, the kernel
[20:26] <Trek> Kinetic|work: I also have Windows that works with DVDs
[20:26] <ikonia> DreamDemon: why ?
[20:26] <daedhel> toastedmilk: what makes you think its for a 2nd monitor ?
[20:26] <ikonia> DreamDemon: what's wrong with the stock one ?
[20:26] <inko> guntbert, not really sure what that means, should i?
[20:26] <Kinetic|work> Trek windows is licensed to use libdvdcss
[20:26] <Kinetic|work> err dvdcss sorry :)
[20:26] <toastedmilk> daedhel, because the monitor fits in the port, idk
[20:26] <DreamDemon> ikonia, It's a server and need to squeeze as much perf out of it as possible
[20:26] <inko> guntbert, i have 100gb free space im installing on
[20:27] <meestermole> I cannot access config page to my NAS devices with 1 out of 3 of my PCs - anyone?
[20:27] <Trek> as I said, Kinetic|work, I use Windows to play DVDs (it runs smoother for me)
[20:27] <ikonia> DreamDemon: then don't custom compile - it will get more juice out of it
[20:27] <saraqual> Just a quick question, every time I browse to on of the old drivers it automaticaly creates a "icon" on one of the workspaces, any chance I could turn that off?
[20:27] <ikonia> DreamDemon: if you think a custom kernel will squeeze juice out of your box, your not living in a real world
[20:27] <daedhel> toastedmilk: that probably is you motherboard's card, wich is desactivated when you intall another card on it
[20:27] <toastedmilk> daedhel, any way to get them both working?
[20:27] <DreamDemon> ikonia, So I can zet timeers higher then 100 Mhz without re-compiling?
[20:27] <daedhel> toastedmilk: nope
[20:28] <DreamDemon> ikonia, amongst other things
[20:28] <ikonia> DreamDemon: why do you feel setting the timers will give you more performance /
[20:28] <guntbert> inko: it means you can tell the system to write everything in memory to the disk and shut off power - that way it will restart faster and at the same point you were before - in windows its called hibernate
[20:28] <DAMEXICO> hello
[20:28] <inko> guntbert, then yeah
[20:28] <DreamDemon> ikonia, One of the things running on this machine is a game server.  Need to increase the I/O timers for fps boosting
[20:29] <ikonia> DreamDemon: it really won't make a differnce, you're living in a false economy
[20:29] <Losha> !mencoder
[20:29] <toastedmilk> daedhel, that puzzles me.
[20:30] <ikonia> DreamDemon: that sort of thing is for very specific tuning, things like hpc, or high io database servers, a games server you won't see a difference
[20:30] <guntbert> inko: then the first advice (way up) was good - but 3GB swap (same as RAM) will be ok too
[20:30] <inko> guntbert, ok thanks
[20:30] <DreamDemon> ikonia, So stipiing out the un-necessary garbage out of the kernel and custom compiling for my Opteron-HE's wont make a difference in how well the kernel code performs on the machine?
[20:30] <PeterParker> !mark
[20:30] <ikonia> DreamDemon: no
[20:30] <PHughes> Slart: Thanks for your suggestion, but I don't see anything in /var/log/syslog that helps....
[20:30] <terje_> hi, where is my screen (display) resolution set? (filename)?
[20:30] <guntbert> inko: you're welcome :-)
[20:30] <genii> deshymers1: According to http://www.dell.com/us/en/dfh/notebooks/laptop-inspiron-10/pd.aspx?refid=laptop-inspiron-10&cs=22&s=dfh Bluetooth is optional
[20:31] <terje> I would imagine it's /etc/X11/xorg.conf but it's actually not there.
[20:31] <Trek> !offtopic PeterParker
[20:31] <Trek> !offtopic | PeterParker
[20:31] <DreamDemon> ikonia, Since when does that not help a machine and it's overhead?!?
[20:31] <Kinetic|work> terje : correct, yours is missing???
[20:31] <Slart> PHughes: hmm.. not sure if there are other logs that might be interesting
[20:32] <ikonia> DreamDemon: it never has, your whole system would need to be optimised and it's still a false economy
[20:32] <terje> my what is missing?
[20:32] <terje> my resolution is not in that file.
[20:32] <terje> although it is set properly
[20:32] <Kinetic|work> check the xorg for include
[20:32] <terje> ah
[20:33] <haffe> Guys. I have gotten a dual monitor setup for my computer. What mode should I run?
[20:33] <haffe> separate screens or twinview?
[20:33] <terje> no includes..
[20:33] <PeterParker> hello people are there any helpers here?
[20:33] <DreamDemon> ikonia, Funny, been using linux for more then 10 years and thats the first I've heard that slimming down the kernel does not help with overhead or unwanted/needed drivers
[20:33] <Kinetic|work> terje im stuck thensorry:(
[20:33] <terje> I like seperate screens
[20:33] <terje> ok, thanks.
[20:33] <ikonia> DreamDemon: the ubuntu kernel is modular, it only loads what it's needed, that would only help with a monolitic kernel
[20:33] <guntbert> !ask | PeterParker
[20:33] <PeterParker> i have to ask a staff question are there any helpers ?
[20:34] <ikonia> PeterParker: just ask the question
[20:34] <PeterParker> thanx i was curious to know if you have seen the nick sabdfl recently ?
[20:34] <DAMEXICO> most people are experts here
[20:34] <Trek> PeterParker, if you're looking for the ops, they might not be in this channel...
[20:34] <DAMEXICO> just ask your Q
[20:34] <ikonia> PeterParker: that's offtopic for this channel, but yes, he is online
[20:34] <DAMEXICO> apparently
[20:35] <PeterParker> a thanx you can tell me wich chans as i can't get reponse from whois and have to fish to a convo we had long ago
[20:35] <ikonia> PeterParker: he's not on line at this moment
[20:35] <PeterParker> if i ever find him back i hope :)
[20:35] <PeterParker> ok ill check later then thanx
[20:35] <gandhijee> hey, what does ubuntu use to start the vt's since init has been replaced? or i guess the better question is where is the location of the upstart files that control the vt's?
[20:35] <luisgmarine> hey guys I just changed my monitors connection from RBG to DVI and I can't seem to change my resolution.  How do I re-install the nvidia drivers?
[20:35] <Josesak> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[20:36] <Josesak> hey
[20:36] <DreamDemon> ikonia, So basically what your telling me is that I should not care about the excess thats sitting on a limited machine where I need higher io for my database functions, not to mention supposedly that wont increase performance on registers with a game where thats been overly documented it does?
[20:36] <Murdock> Im trying to play some midi files from the web but cant get it to work.. anyone here who can help me?
[20:36] <Josesak> quien hay ahi
[20:36] <deshymers1> genii: huh I missed that page, I went through the customize part and I didnt see an option to add bluetooth either
[20:36] <ikonia> DreamDemon: correct
[20:36] <terje> luisgmarine: nvidia-xconfig
[20:36] <guntbert> !es | Josesak
[20:36] <DreamDemon> ikonia, So everyone else is a liar?
[20:36] <ikonia> DreamDemon: no, you're just living in a false economy
[20:36] <Josesak> wath´s your name?
[20:37] <ikonia> !topic | Josesak
[20:37] <Josesak> hello i life in spain
[20:37] <DreamDemon> ikonia, That is a contradiction if they are not a liar but I'm living in a false economy
[20:37] <Josesak> hola
[20:38] <guntbert> !es > Josesak
[20:38] <ikonia> DreamDemon: it's not,
[20:38] <Josesak> hay lguien español
[20:38] <Murdock> Im trying to play midi files from the web, bu it wont work. Anyone here who can help, please?
[20:39] <luisgmarine> terje, that doens't do anything just says it's making a copy of my x11 config
[20:39] <DreamDemon> ikonia, supporting evidence it isnt?
[20:39] <ikonia> DreamDemon: pardon ?
[20:40] <Nachturnal> Okay, first question: What's the easiest way for me to install Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 9.04?
[20:40] <ikonia> Nachturnal: I advise you not to - firefox is very intergrated into the desktop
[20:40] <DreamDemon> ikonia, You've basically stated that I'm living a false economy but those others are not liars, therefore creating a contradiction without any supporting reference point
[20:40] <ikonia> Nachturnal: what do you need from 3.6 that 3.5 doesn't give you
[20:40] <DAMEXICO> download the archive from mozilla site
[20:41] <DAMEXICO> extract it and run it
[20:41] <Purpley> Hey guys my Fedora-12 torrent just finished, It has the iso a Checksum and a readme-sources, do I burn all of them to a cd?
[20:41] <ikonia> DreamDemon: no, I'm stating in certain sitautions it may increase a performance increase, but not in the case of the ubuntu box and any increase would not be worth the overhead
[20:41] <psyk> What's up #ubuntu, I need a little help. Does anybody have a chart for C variable declarations (eg. %c, %d)thanks a ton
[20:41] <Nachturnal> ikonia, I have 3.0.17. I want do stay up-to-date with Firefox releases for security purposes, and to keep up with new features.
[20:41] <ikonia> psyk: join ##c
[20:41] <ikonia> Nachturnal: what new features ?
[20:41] <psyk> ikonia, thanks, I didn't know that channel existed lol
[20:41] <Slart> Purpley: sounds like a question for a channel like #fedora, don't you think?
[20:41] <guntbert> Purpley: what has that to do wit ubuntu?
[20:42] <DAMEXICO> seriously, and personally i have not observed any difference between firefox 3.5 and firefox 3.6 on ubuntu (at least not visually)
[20:42] <guntbert> *with
[20:42] <Nachturnal> ikonia, private browsing, and whatever else they add as time goes by. I like to know what's included in programs I frequently recommend to friends/family.
[20:42] <IdleOne> Nachturnal: you can install firefox-3.5 using synaptic
[20:42] <Purpley> I didn't know there was a fedora channel either way I didn't think it was that inconvenient
[20:42] <ikonia> Nachturnal: then I suggest you trust the ubuntu developers who do back ports for security bugs
[20:42] <genii> deshymers1: Well, if there is one that it just can't understand is for Bluetooth... :  lspci | grep Bluetooth           or: lsusb | grep Bluetooth         should show it
[20:43] <ikonia> Nachturnal: they put a lot of time into making sure the packages are compatible, if you care about security you won't break the compatability work that's been put into the package on your machine and trust the ubuntu developers to update when needed
[20:43] <deshymers1> genii: cool I will give those a try then, thanks :)
[20:43] <sysdoc> Purpley, #fedora
[20:43] <Purpley> I know
[20:43] <deshymers1> genii: been reading about it for some time, pretty sure I tried those commands, but will give it another shot :)
[20:43] <meestermole> is there another IRCchannel focused more on networking in ubuntu?
[20:43] <DreamDemon> ikonia, So ubuntu server ( not desktop) is optimized for twin dual core opteron he's out of the box without any extras running and code is for lack of a better way of putting it optimized for an amd64 chipset and since all the drivers are modular ( which they arent) I dont need to worry about the impact on the sytem when I'm trying to create a high performance realtime server?
[20:43] <ikonia> meestermole: no
[20:43] <IdleOne> meestermole: #neyworking
[20:43] <genii> deshymers1: If it gives some result, you can try searching for the Vendor:Device code to see if some way to get it working
[20:43] <IdleOne> meestermole: #networking
[20:44] <Slart> Nachturnal: there is a PPA with daily builds of firefox 3.6.. make sure you understand what you're doing and be prepared to fix bugs yourself if something bad happens
[20:44] <Nachturnal> Somehow I don't think a newer version of Firefox is likely to wreck Ubuntu on my box. And if it does, then I'd rather switch to a distro that's a little more 'free'.
[20:44] <Murdock> In need some support on midi playback, anyone can help?
[20:44] <Jason_> anyone familiar with xen?
[20:44] <Nachturnal> i had the daily ppa included for a while, but i don't want alpha/beta builds
[20:44] <IdleOne> !midi | Murdock
[20:44] <ikonia> DreamDemon: ubuntu is smp read out of the box yes, there is no point optimising your kernel if things like your core c libaries are not optimised the same, and the work of doing all that will not increase the performance for you by any extent
[20:44] <deshymers1> genii: ok, thats a good idea as well, it says its enabled in the bios which is another reason why i think this netbook has it
[20:44] <ikonia> DreamDemon: sorry "ready"
[20:44] <ikonia> Jason_: yes, why ?
[20:44] <Murdock> thanks ill check it out
[20:44] <toastedmilk> daedhel, but whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
[20:45] <Jason_> one of my images died on me
[20:45] <DreamDemon> ikonia, Then why shouldnt I just switch to winblows since it too is 'optimized' out of the box
[20:45] <ikonia> DreamDemon: you're welcome to do so, but most common linux boxes have better through put, but it's your call (it's also called windows)
[20:45] <toastedmilk> DreamDemon, because windows sucks donkey balls
[20:45] <Jason_> i can access it...but i cant get network access or mount filesystems to dump mysql database file
[20:45] <ikonia> toastedmilk: nonsense, please odn't make wild and silly comments
[20:45] <ranjan> can any body can tell me how to disable unmount option from side pan for internal drive
[20:45] <toastedmilk> ikonia, personally against windows.
[20:45] <Tm_T> toastedmilk: watch your language there
[20:46] <ikonia> toastedmilk: then keep that to your self
[20:46] <edbian> Is there a way to set the permissions on a folder so that when files are placed inside (or created inside it) that the permissions are rw for everybody?
[20:46] <ikonia> toastedmilk: if you can't be objective - keep it to yourself
[20:46] <toastedmilk> ikonia, everything running on top of dos?  gross.
[20:46] <Slart> DreamDemon: if you're looking to hand tune your machine why not try one of the distros that is oriented towards that.. lfs, perhaps archlinux.. I don't know how gentoo is doing these days but it might be worth checking out
[20:46] <ikonia> toastedmilk: that shows how illeducated you are
[20:46] <Nachturnal> K, tried to install 3.5 from synaptic and I'm still getting 3.0.17 when I open firefox via cairodock (simply uses the command "firefox")
[20:46] <toastedmilk> ikonia, whatever you say guy.
[20:46] <guntbert> toastedmilk: thats off topic here
[20:46] <Nachturnal> do i have to use firefox-3.5 to open it?
[20:46] <toastedmilk> lol flames
[20:46] <o_be_one> sous XFCE je me demandais
[20:47] <Tm_T> Nachturnal: try and see (:
[20:47] <genii> deshymers1: The lsusb command gives Vendor:Device codes by default... to get them in the lspci command, use -nn
[20:47] <o_be_one> sorry
[20:47] <Slart> Nachturnal: installed firefox some other way at some point in the past?
[20:47] <IdleOne> Nachturnal: in the menu it will be listed as Shiretoko
[20:47] <DreamDemon> Slart, gentoo sux
[20:47] <Slart> !fr | Tm_T
[20:47] <usuario><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:47] <Tm_T> Slart: pardon?
[20:47] <Slart> oops
[20:47] <usuario> nada nadaç
[20:47] <Nachturnal> oooh firefox-3.5 did work. and yes, it shows as Shiretoko.
[20:48] <danissto> hola
[20:48] <NiNE_> hi
[20:48] <deshymers1> genii: neither of those commands return anything with bluetooth
[20:48] <Slart> Tm_T: my eyes are failing me.. I think I need more coffee.. sorry =)
[20:48] <inko_> if i choose "use largest amount of free space" in ubuntu installation does install swap on its own?
[20:48] <Tm_T> Slart: or sleep (;
[20:48] <Jason_> anyone familiary with XEN?
[20:48] <ikonia> Jason_: yes, why ?
[20:48] <Slart> Tm_T: I'll try that in a while too.. =)
[20:48] <genii> deshymers1: Did you use uppercase B as in Bluetooth or lowercase b as in bluetooth ?
[20:49] <Jason_> i cant load a file system
[20:49] <Nachturnal> TY all of you. For some reason I needed my hand held today. Lack of sleep, me thinks. And yes, Slart, I've tinkered a bit and installed it from the PPA in the past. 3.5 then 3.6, then reverted to 3.0 and had trouble getting back to 3.5.  :)
[20:49] <ikonia> Jason_: you're using xen on ubuntu ???
[20:49] <danissto> hola en españool
[20:49] <deshymers1> genii: I tried both
[20:49] <Jason_> no...xen on debian
[20:49] <IdleOne> !es | danissto
[20:49] <Jason_> how do you pm on here?
[20:49] <ikonia> Jason_: then ask in #debian - this is #ubuntu
[20:49] <Slart> inko_: I think it does.. if you want I can check in my vm if you want? I have a newly installed ubuntu 9.10 in there
[20:49] <Jason_> i know...tried on debian
[20:49] <inko_> Slart, k
[20:49] <Jason_> i'm overflowed
[20:49] <danissto> hablaen spañol pliss
[20:50] <IdleOne> danissto: si, en #ubuntu-es
[20:50] <ikonia> Jason_: you need to register your nick name to use that channel
[20:50] <ikonia> !register > Jason_
[20:50] <Murdock> im trying to play a simple midi file from the web in firefox, but i get no sound. When i play a midi file from my harddrive it does play. Anyone can help?
[20:50] <Slart> inko_: yes.. it did create a swap partition for me when I did the fully guided partitioning thingy
[20:50] <genii> deshymers1: OK. So maybe the vendor didn't put that in the description line. Please pastebin result of full: lspci -nn            and: lsusb            it may have some description like "Communication Device"  etc
[20:50] <danissto> bueno boy a estudiar  chaooo
[20:50] <inko_> thanks Slart
[20:50] <luisgmarine> my resolution is stuck at a really low number and i cant change it in the nvidia settings any suggestions?
[20:51] <Slart> inko_: you're welcome
[20:53] <deshymers1> genii: http://www.pastebin.ca/1765665
[20:55] <genii> deshymers1: Yup, no bluetooth devices found. The 064e:a129 Suyin Corp is a webcam.
[20:56] <RaverWild> guys pls help: how to force update manager to delete some already downloaded packages and re-download them again?
[20:56] <deshymers1> genii: oh well, seems kind of odd that they would make it optional, thanks for your help
[20:56] <Slart> RaverWild: I don't think you can use update-manager to do it.. perhaps apt-cache autoremove/ or clean or autoclean
[20:57] <quentin> it appears you graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool <- message I get when i try to change resolution. what do you think about this?
[20:57] <Urda> QUESTION: Any idea why rebooting from Ubuntu 9.10 x64 to Windows 7 Pro x64 makes Windows 7 low rez and unable to connect to a handful of USB drivers? Only way to fix it is to power down completely and wait a minute. The Boot Loaders is the latest version of GRUB
[20:57] <freestyler> !de
[20:57] <RaverWild> Slart, thanks. gonna try now...
[20:57] <o_be_one> how to get menu bar like OSX on ubuntu ?
[20:58] <Slart> RaverWild: sorry.. it's of course    apt-get clean/autoclean/autoremove
[20:58] <_dreamy> hi, im using wine to run an APP and it ask for "Gecko" ive web searched everywhere and i used APT to search too ... how do i install gecko ? anyone helping ?
[20:58] <o_be_one> not a theme, but the menu bar at bottom, very like os x:)
[20:58] <Slart> RaverWild: I think "clean" is the one you want, according to the man page
[20:59] <sysdoc> o_be_one, Your looking for Awn

[21:08] <duffydack> _dreamy, its installed it itself when its needed it, for me...
[21:08] <iceroot> Audible: backports are a good way and very important! its the safe way
[21:08] <quentin> what should i do?
[21:09] <_dreamy> duffydack: i found it.. but i had to add "wine HQ" to the software sources
[21:10] <BPX-Dev> hey guys, quicky, does anyone know, or has anyone had experiance of,: an issue that would prevent sound drivers/ sound in general working properly after a twinview configuration was successfully implemented?

[21:10] <aprilhare> hello. - I activated 'Automatically remember running applications when logging out' a while back; I found it kept on running Vidalia and Skype twice when logging in, so I went back and disabled it - but it behaves the same, like the option is stuck 'on'. has anyone run across this or can recommend solution?
[21:10] <sysdoc> Karmic and vm ware server, I'm having to reinstall it again (new kernel) and can't find the posts in the forums regarding the workaround, and someone wrote a script to automate the install. Would anyone happen to have the url?

[21:11] <axos88> Hi! I just had my filesystem corrupted (ext2). I ran e2fsck, but some of the files were deleted. They are part of the SVN server, and the MySQL server, which no longer run. They countained some pretty important data, and yeah... there was no backup (fuckin stupid, I know, but I can't do anything about it for now). Is there any way to recover these files? (should physically still exist on the drive) lost+found does not contain any relevant entries
[21:11] <mtaftm> hello anyone there?
[21:11] <hdon> how do i enable xrandr these days? i heard Xorg.conf is gone
[21:11] <iceroot> !ask | mtaftm
[21:11] <Audible> iceroot : thank you, i knew there had to be something like that
[21:11] <infid> actually it recognizes it by IP only but not by the /etc/hosts hostname sometimes
[21:11] <iceroot> !backport | Audible
[21:12] <Audible> iceroot : yeah, i found it in synaptic
[21:12] <mtaftm> i did 8-) yes so what program do you recomend for having a dock bar at the bottom ?
[21:12] <quentin> nvidia won't write my chosen resolution to xorg. on reboot my resolution has reset to one that is too big. How do I get my resolution to stay on reboot
[21:12] <iceroot> mtaftm: kooldock for kde, for gnome i dont know
[21:13] <iceroot> mtaftm: if you mean something like mac os style
[21:13] <BPX-Dev> quentin, i think ive been having the same issue, i just ran nvidia settings as sudo and it saved the config
[21:13] <Jason_> it keeps saying i must specify the file system type
[21:13] <guntbert> BPX-Dev: quentin: use gksudo not sudo
[21:14] <mtaftm> iceroot: yes
[21:14] <BPX-Dev> guntbert, thanks, noted for future reference
[21:14] <duffydack> _dreamy, I dont have winehq added and its in ubuntus repos..  ive only tried half-life2,  was a little buggy, like the flashlight didnt actually light anything up, and some textures had lighting issues...apart from that, it ran ok.  tried a few apps like photoshop and collectorz movie collector, work fine
[21:14] <Nachturnal> i assume that is for security purposes, but why gksu instead of sudo?
[21:14] <sarah31UK> k
[21:14] <duffydack> _dreamy, my experience with the wine betas, they break more than they fix
[21:14] <guntbert> BPX-Dev: :)
[21:14] <guntbert> !gksudo | Nachturnal
[21:15] <DAMEXICO_> actually i dont know if there any difference
[21:15] <DAMEXICO_> but i prefer sudo
[21:15] <guntbert> DAMEXICO_: ^^^

[21:15] <dopple> could someone please tell me how to configure my wlan adaptor to use a manually entered ip for a certain wireless network?
[21:15] <Audible> iceroot : still a no go, its only in lucid, any way to add it without upgrading to lucid?
[21:15] <DAMEXICO_> if you use gnome you can easily configure you wirelless card with the network applet
[21:16] <quentin> BPX-Dev: on gksudo of nvidia settings i get this error: Failed to parse existing X config...
[21:16] <_dreamy> duffydack: do you think that running a game with a PC with low resources(a game that generaly whouldnt run).. that wine could give me luck?
[21:16] <dopple> DAMEXICO_: ok where is that? clicking the icon for the wlan connection only lets me disconnect and connect
[21:16] <iceroot> Audible: what program?
[21:16] <_dreamy> duffydack:  i got a weak 3d card
[21:16] <BPX-Dev> quentin, sorry dude, im not in a position to help with that im afriad :(
[21:16] <duffydack> _dreamy, if it wont run native in windows dont even bother
[21:16] <dopple> DAMEXICO_: nevermind i found it
[21:17] <Audible> libdbus-c++-1-0
[21:17] <_dreamy> duffydack: ok
[21:17] <Audible> iceroot : libdbus-c++-1-0
[21:17] <guntbert> dopple: right click - select edit connections
[21:17] <mediaprodigy> anyone know ubuntu4musicians channel?
[21:17] <iceroot> !info libdbus-c++
[21:17] <Audible> its in lucid
[21:17] <jussi01> mediaprodigy: theres #ubuntustudio - which is support for Ubuntu Studio, but quite a few musicians hang in there.
[21:18] <DAMEXICO_> "dopple right-click and select edit connections
[21:18] <DAMEXICO_> "dopple the go to the wireless tab
[21:18] <quentin> BPX-Dev: is ok. I have edited the xorg.config because ubuntu won't auto detect my off brand monitor. This is probably the conflict. I just don't know how to resolve it.
[21:18] <dopple> ok i did that.. and entered in the ip address i want to use... it wont let me apply changes
[21:18] <DAMEXICO_> @dopple then click "add"
[21:18] <iceroot> !info libdbus-1-dev
[21:18] <mediaprodigy> jussi01: thanks .. two days ago someone sent a link ubuntumusicians or something like that and I have not found it since..
[21:18] <DAMEXICO_> @dopple the fill in all the parameters
[21:18] <iceroot> Audible: that?
[21:18] <dopple> doh would help if i put in netmask and gateway :/
[21:18] <Audible> iceroot : maybe that one
[21:18] <guntbert> mediaprodigy: then there is #opensourcemusicians
[21:19] <mediaprodigy> guntbert: that might be it.. hey thanks
[21:19] <_dreamy> duffydack: did you sayd the wine beta could be worse? or better ?
[21:19] <DAMEXICO_> @dopple you have to add connections name and then confim you IP addresses by pressing enter
[21:19] <guntbert> mediaprodigy: you're welcome :-)
[21:19] <prc33> Is there a way to get Java <IP_ADDRESS> on Karmic? Jaunty seems to have it...
[21:19] <DAMEXICO_> @dopple then try to make the connection available for all users
[21:19] <Audible> iceroot : no, i think i need the c++, its a seperate lib
[21:19] <duffydack> _dreamy, they are betas..  might be ok for you..
[21:19] <Audible> but i'll download and compile
[21:19] <quentin> rephrase of question - I have edited the xorg.config file and now my resolution won't stay on reboot. how do I get it to stay
[21:20] <Audible> who here is running Lucid ?
[21:20] <duffydack> _dreamy, for me, a prog like coverxp is broken with anything past 1.1.33
[21:20] <Audible> is it really that unstable?
[21:20] <guntbert> !lucid | Audible
[21:20] <wd4lko> GRUB 1.98 experimental, how can i get rid of the flicker when scrolling up and down the menu ?
[21:20] <duffydack> Audible, people in #ubuntu+1
[21:20] <_dreamy> duffydack: ok..
[21:20] <dopple_> got it... thanks DAMEXICO_
[21:20] <duffydack> Audible, i find it quite stable considering...
[21:20] <Audible> yeah, i expect bluescreens and feds showing up at my door
[21:20] <duffydack> Audible, well apart from fglrx wont install / work right
[21:21] <Audible> so no nvidia drivers?
[21:21] <dopple_> next question, what package gives me a vnc server instead of a vnc viewer
[21:21] <duffydack> Audible, dunno, ask in +1
[21:21] <Audible> :)

[21:23] <quentin> h0rnman: how and where in the xorg
[21:23] <jph_> I just copied a 45000 line allow list in to a rough draft of a new .htaccess file... my goal is to deny all that are not US IPs... I didn't think the allow list would be that long... am I right to think that a .htaccess file that long will cause me problems?
[21:23] <hiexpo> ok
[21:23] <dopple_> damexico: well i did that and i kept getting remote desktop, but me being a normal windows user, i assigned that to RDP and not VNC, which apparently it does both...
[21:23] <hiexpo> does anybody know how to setup bpython for pastebin

[21:24] <guntbert> !shout | DAMEXICO_
[21:24] <BPX-Dev> well first off the caps lock button is a bad idea
[21:24] <dopple_> DAMEXICO_:  i got it now... it is remote desktop.... like i said, i assumed that the 'Remote Desktop' package would have been RDP not
[21:24] <dopple_> VNC
[21:25] <quentin> I would like to add resolutions manually to xorg.config. I'm unsure of exactly where to insert the text, and what syntax to use. What do?

[21:30] <h0rnman> saraqual, what do you mean by ' can not apply'?
[21:30] <iceroot> Skint: sudo apt-get install xchat
[21:30] <Skint> thanx, i'm new to this :)
[21:30] <jellow> iceroot: no , Native nix apps like et
[21:32] <Skint> Once i've typed that iceroot where will xchat be for me to run it?
[21:32] <saraqual> h0rnman, well, the apply button is greyed out for some odd reason, I've entered the server address, changed the authentication to password, enterted my username and password, and buggera-all
[21:32] <iceroot> Skint: applications - internet  i guess
[21:32] <Skint> hmm, it sonly has gnome xchat there not the real xchat
[21:32] <Skint> it only*
[21:33] <rww> Skint: the "xchat" package is Xchat. the "xchat-gnome" package is Xchat Gnome.
[21:33] <rww> Skint: sudo apt-get install xchat installs real xchat.
[21:33] <saraqual> Just install it Skint, I used USC and grabbed the normal xchat, there is also a gnome version, but both is there
[21:33] <Skint> so I'll have to delete this other one first?
[21:33] <g-me> Hi all. Has anyone had experience of ldap php not binding to AD with Ubuntu 8.04?
[21:34] <Skint> E: Couldn't find package xchat

[21:36] <andy_> Hey

[21:36] <saraqual> Skint, sorry, what did you type where?
[21:37] <rww> iceroot: it's xchat, not x-chat.
[21:37] <iceroot> rww: ah ok

[21:37] <madmike> anyone know how to enable desktop scrolling in karmic?  I tried brightside, but it doesn't work

[21:40] <koshari> madmike what scrooling effect are you after
[21:40] <Skint> hmmmm
[21:40] <Skint> i wonder
[21:41] <IdleOne> Skint: the packages are xchat-common or xchat-gnome. I prefer xchat-common
[21:41] <saraqual> iceroot, sorry to bug with this, but whenever I browse to my ntfs partions via the places main menu it creates a icon on the desktop, any way I can turn that off?
[21:41] <rww> Skint: did you just install Ubuntu?
[21:41] <saraqual> heh, sounds like me and skint are in the same boat here :)
[21:42] <iceroot> saraqual: dont know, i am not using it
[21:42] <hiexpo> Skint: - look copy this sudo apt-get install xchat      \    and paste it in the terminal abd than hit enter
[21:42] <rww> IdleOne: xchat-common is not a client, it's the shared resources for the various xchats.
[21:42] <CAPcap> how do install flash for iexlplore in wine?
[21:42] <Skint> rww, yeah
[21:42] <saraqual> iceroot, what are you using then to browse the different resources on the pc?
[21:43] <rww> Skint: Have you done "sudo apt-get update" yet? If not, that would be a good start.
[21:43] <iceroot> saraqual: shell
[21:43] <rww> Skint: (and then "sudo apt-get install xchat" should work)
[21:43] <Skint> rww, i had done it yeah thats how I got ubuntu xchat
[21:43] <saraqual> heh, righty, I'll get there in a bit
[21:43] <IdleOne> rww: right, ok so xchat or xchat-gnome
[21:43] <rww> !info xchat

[21:44] <usacomputertec> hello all. I need to understand dbus. According to what I've witnessed and understand about .dbus it has some impact on the display :0 for each session. What I don't understand is where these settings are for screen resolution. Please let me know if any of you know where to look or what IRC chat to get in. Is there a Gnome IRC?
[21:45] <iceroot> usacomputertec: #gnome

[21:45] <rww> Skint: System -> Administration -> Software Sources, see if "Community-maintained Open Source software (universe)" is checked.
[21:45] <mkjackson1> or could it be the new audio ssytem?
[21:45] <madmike> koshari:  I just want to scroll desktops using the mouse, instead of keyboard, or actually clicking in the little desktopswitcher

[21:46] <duffydack> madmike, viewport switcher

[21:49] <infid> is there a command that can tell me all the IPs or hostnames of computers on my LAN?
[21:49] <koshari> mkjackson1 open a volume meter?
[21:49] <mkjackson1> I got a feeling that the only reason Banshee/Rhythmbox are funky for me is because of the audio engine
[21:49] <andy_> No idea tomppa but in any case, when trying to make Ubuntu dualboot with BT4, I had quiet alot of troubles, especially with Backtrack messing up the partition resize, so had to install Backtrack over the entire PC then let ubuntu install and do the resize itself

[21:53] <madmike> duffydack:  holy crap, there's a lot of options, it'll take me a while to play with it, thanks again, you too koshari
[21:53] <quentin> how do i get xorg.conf to control my resolution on reboot? i have edited it and my resolution still appears different
[21:53] <hiexpo> check your addons in firefox
[21:53] <h0rnman> quentin, LCD or CRT monitor?
[21:54] <CAPcap> ok now its letting me talk. its never done that before...
[21:54] <quentin> h0rnman: LCD
[21:54] <h0rnman> quentin, did you manually set resolutions in your xorg.conf file?
[21:54] <duffydack> madmike,  utilising screen edges in mouse bindings = godsend
[21:54] <quentin> h0rnman: yes
[21:54] <koshari> madmike compiz is very customisable, advanced things like having specific windows always open in an exact spot in exact size are handy as well
[21:55] <h0rnman> quentin, did you make sure to specify the correct resolution AND refresh rate (aka 1280x1024@60)
[21:55] <Geoffrey2> is there a PPA available to get the latest version of Firefox?
[21:55] <kickassmixernerd> CAPcap: Go To http://adobe.com/flashplayer
[21:55] <IdleOne> CAPcap: each time you connect to freenode you should identify to nickserv so you don't have that problem again. in xchat you can set to auto-identify in the network list
[21:56] <kickassmixernerd> Geoffrey2: No, You Have to use the app Ubuntuzilla
[21:56] <CAPcap> kickassmixernerd then what?
[21:56] <Geoffrey2> I am presuming that FF 3.6 wouldn't be placed in the repositories because it's not a bug fix....
[21:57] <IdleOne> Geoffrey2: correct
[21:57] <gerzel> I want to set a new drive to mount automatically what do I do?  fstab or is there an ubuntu way to do it?
[21:57] <quentin> h0rnman: 1280x1024@60 <- is that literal? my edits don't look like that, but yes i have the correct refresh rate and such(i hope)
[21:57] <kickassmixernerd> CAPcap: hold on 1 sec
[21:57] <gerzel> And where if the file found?
[21:58] <erUSUL> !fstab > gerzel
[21:58] <gareth|pos> hey all, i got a laptop here with a wireless issue, it sees the hardware, but cannot see wifi networks, WiFi is non enableable from gnome network manager..
[21:59] <gareth|pos> the installation was done with ethernet connected.
[21:59] <macman_> hey all .. if mplayer fails to rip a dvd .. what do you guys normally use after that ?
[21:59] <quentin> h0rnman: HorizSync	30-82	VertreFresh	56-76 <- xorg settings
[21:59] <Geoffrey2> ah, except I'm using the 64 bit version of ubuntu, and Mozilla doesn't release 64 bit packages....
[22:00] <h0rnman> more or less, yes, they should looks like that...something like:       Modes: "1280x1024@60"
[22:01] <quentin> h0rnman: SubSection "Display" Depth 24	Modes	"1440x900_75.00" <- more xorg settings
[22:01] <saraqual> Haven't gotten around to the VPN thing, will do that tomorrow, but, hehehe, more importantly, I need to get the tunes up and running, way to quiet, I remember a friend saying XMMS has the same look and feel as Winamp, is that still so or is there something else I can use?
[22:01] <axisys> anyone here used vserver?
[22:01] <axisys> linuxe-vserver that is
[22:01] <kickassmixernerd> CAPcap:Click on Different Operating System Or Browser
[22:01] <axisys> linux-vserver*
[22:01] <CAPcap> kickassmixernerd i already got it. thanks though :)
[22:01] <h0rnman> saraqual, the only thing I can see that might fix VPN for you is to run it with gksudo
[22:01] <acicula> saraqual: rythmbox and totem are the defaults, but there are to many to choose from really
[22:02] <CAPcap> didnt work btw.
[22:02] <acicula> *too
[22:02] <h0rnman> you can also install XMMS, but you have to add custom repos for that
[22:02] <kickassmixernerd> CAPcap: >:|
[22:02] <CAPcap> kickassmixernerd what?
[22:02] <pyrophelia> how do I moniter sftp users and current transfers?
[22:02] <h0rnman> quentin, try making it Modes "1440x900@75" or "1440x900@60"
[22:03] <acicula> pyrophelia: ps ?, doesnt tell you that much though
[22:03] <kickassmixernerd> CAPcap: How it didn't work
[22:03] <quentin> h0rnman: ok I'll try that. thanks.
[22:03] <saraqual> shot, thanks h0rnman , acicula
[22:03] <CAPcap> nah its cool. not a big deal. i was hoping to fool nbc's site into letting me watch videos, but i'll just catch them on hulu instead
[22:03] <saraqual> Going to try that just now
[22:04] <Chocorua> whats a good chess game?
[22:04] <Chocorua> for ubuntu
[22:04] <kickassmixernerd> Chocorua: GNU Chess
[22:04] <garo> gnuchess
[22:04] <CAPcap> theres one installed by default chocorua
[22:04] <Chocorua> can you play online through it?
[22:04] <garo> all the others are just frontends for gnuchess
[22:05] <pyrophelia> acicula, it 'worksm but I would like something with more detail. I want to see exactly who is connected, what they are downloading/uploading and their current bandwidth usage
[22:05] <Geoffrey2> I'm beginning to think sticking with the 32 bit version of Ubuntu would have been the better idea.....
[22:05] <acicula> pyrophelia: not sure if thats possible with sftp
[22:05] <Chocorua> alright
[22:05] <Chocorua> i got it
[22:05] <koshari> Geoffrey2 64bit working fine here
[22:05] <Chocorua> who wants to play?
[22:05] <kickassmixernerd> Chocorua: I'll play
[22:05] <Kashuya> I'm having trouble setting up a VPN Client in 9.10 to connect to a microsoft network. I can get it working in Win7 just can't get it working in 9.10 at all though. Anyone able to help me out at all please?
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[22:05] <acicula> pyrophelia: at least i dont think you can query the sftp-daemon for such parameters so you'd have to deduce them through some other means
[22:05] <pyrophelia> acicula, wow, really?
[22:05] <Chocorua> whats your nickname>?
[22:06] <Geoffrey2> koshari, it works, I'm just not sure what I gained...and the 64 bit version of flash is still VERY alpha, and it shows....
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> !vpn | Kashuya
[22:06] <erUSUL> pyrophelia: watching the ftp daemon log ?
[22:06] <mrow_> internal speakers dont stop when plugging in headphones, any ideas ?
[22:06] <kickassmixernerd> don't have one yet, Custom????
[22:06] <quentin> h0rnman: you still there? tried it with the @ and still went to a smaller resolution
[22:07] <pyrophelia> er
[22:07] <kickassmixernerd> Chocorua:Could try a custom??
[22:07] <mrow_> hello,  internal speakers dont stop when plugging in headphones, any ideas ?
[22:07] <Chocorua> how does that work?
[22:07] <duffer> Anyone know how to configure ICE1712[Envy24] soundcard? The input section is working, but no Outputs are showing in Sound Preferences
[22:07] <infid> mguy: i found it: nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[22:07] <Kashuya> ActionParsnip: Thanks, already got pptp and the gui frontend bit working. But it just won't authenticate and I can't work out why. Even from a pptpsetup command line
[22:07] <h0rnman> quentin, define "smaller"
[22:07] <pyrophelia> erUSUL: ftp log, this is sftp, not ftp.
[22:07] <pyrophelia> s/,/)
[22:08] <wdhhiscock> Hi my awn manager wont run, anyone got any ideas?
[22:08] <pyrophelia> ?
[22:08] <acicula> pyrophelia: well sftp will log an entry in syslog or auth log
[22:08] <pyrophelia> hmm
[22:08] <mrow_>  internal speakers dont stop when plugging in headphones, any ideas ?
[22:08] <kickassmixernerd> Chocorua: Go to Game->Network Game
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> Kashuya, if its a cisco connection you can use the cisco vpn client
[22:08] <acicula> pyrophelia: but that is about it i suppose, its not really designed to be monitored like an ftp server?
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> wdhhiscock,does compiz run?
[22:08] <caks79> sta ve ima?
[22:08] <mrow_> hello,  internal speakers dont stop when plugging in headphones, any ideas ?
[22:08] <quentin> h0rnman: smaller number for pixels 100x50 -> 50x25 just for example
[22:09] <wdhhiscock> yeah compiz is running
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> wdhhiscock,awn needs compiz to be running
[22:09] <acicula> pyrophelia: you could watch what files are created/modified/grown from outside the sftp daemon
[22:09] <quentin> h0rnman: everything looks big in other words
[22:09] <caks79> srbija
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> wdhhiscock, then launch it from a terminal, the outputs will hel pdiagnose
[22:09] <wng-> Do Ubuntu Server CD's have a rescue option?
[22:09] <mrow_> caks79: zz buraz
[22:09] <acicula> pyrophelia: mind you an sftp daemon is not jailed in anyway, so a user can write where ever the user(group) has permissions
[22:09] <mrow_> wng-: you mean recovery?
[22:10] <h0rnman> quentin, is your refresh rate 75 or 60?
[22:10] <caks79> zdravo brate
[22:10] <wng-> mrow_: I mean rescue, like most linux distros have, you boot with the option 'linux rescue'
[22:10] <Chocorua> kickassmixernerd are you connected to FICS?
, sorry im new to ubtuntu, how can i run awn from the terminal?
[22:10] <kickassmixernerd> Chocorua: What's FICS
[22:10] <quentin> h0rnman: it's set at 75
[22:11] <Chocorua> i just found it opensource chess network
[22:11] <h0rnman> try setting it to 60...some monitors are more compatible with that
[22:11] <quentin> h0rnman: when I was using intrepid my settings worked. Now on karmic they don't
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> wdhhiscock, type: avant-window-manager   in terminal and press enter, just like any other terminal account
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> wdhhiscock,you can tab complaete the command to make it faster
[22:11] <h0rnman> if that fails, backup your xorg.conf file and try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[22:12] <mrow__> caks79: zdravo, molim te prvo pishi nick na kome se obrachash :D
[22:12] <Chocorua> kickassmixernerd, you need to get one of these clients: http://www.freechess.org/cgi-bin/Download/FICS_Download_Interface.cgi
[22:12] <mrow__> hello, internal speakers wont stop when plugging in headphones?
[22:12] <mrow__> any help>
[22:12] <Chocorua> kickassmixernerd im using eboard
[22:12] <acicula> !english | mrow__ , caks79
[22:13] <quentin> h0rnman: i will try 60.

[22:13] <gareth|pos> if one were to have to dpkg --reconfigure -a on a system after removing the internet, how would i cache the packages first?
[22:13] <mrow__> actionparsnip: is this for my issue?
 sorry i must be being really stupid, terminal says command not found
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> mrow__,i wouldnt have directed it at you if it wasn't...
[22:14] <mrow__> actionparnip: tnx, silly me
[22:14] <mrow__> actionparsnip, looking at it as i type
[22:14] <Euthanatos> is 'RECORD' enabled in the LiveCD compilation of X11 in Ubuntu?
[22:15] <acicula> gareth|pos: you'd have to convict apt-get to fetch the packages
[22:15] <acicula> *convince
[22:15] <dinosaurvskitten> has anyone else noticed Skype's main process having file handles open to files that it shouldn't really be looking at? (random files in ~)
[22:15] <Welshy-Rob> zattoo anyone?
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> Euthanatos, you can upgrade the X11 using PPA if the system doesnt suit your needs
[22:16] <popey> Welshy-Rob: you want seesaw :) http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/jan/25/seesaw-online-tv-test-launch
[22:16] <quentin> h0rnman: ? I tried 60 and didn't work.
[22:16] <h0rnman> did anything change?
[22:17] <Kashuya> ActionParsnip: I managed to get VPN working thanks, had to get the right combination of settings. However I can't ping a machine on the network or resolve any. However I do have valid client/server IP's based on previous connections
[22:17] <quentin> h0rnman: not that I can tell
[22:17] <h0rnman> ok...try the other command I threw at you....it may be that some driver or other dependancy changed when you upgraded and X needs to be kicked
[22:17] <mrow__> actionparsnip: this is for older ubuntu releases, need to mention, i am using xubuntu karmic amd64
[22:18] <acicula> Kashuya: try setting the routing option in the vpn settings to ignore the automatic routes and use it for nodes on the vpn network only. that should force it to set up routing tables for ips on the vpn
[22:18] <Euthanatos> ActionParsnip, hmm seems it might just be easier to recompile X11 in slackwhere, which is what I regularly use.  Was just looking for an easier way to record some macros in Xnee
[22:18] <quentin> h0rnman: if i use auto config and if i can't see anything on my monitor how do i edit xorg.conf or use my backup to get back to usability
[22:18] <Geoffrey2> ok, I'd like to upgrade Firefox to 3.6, however ubuntuzilla only has 32 bit releases, and I'm using the 64 bit version of Karmic...ubuntuzilla is pointing me at the Ubuntu Mozilla Daily PPA..is that a good option?
[22:18] <saraqual> h0rnman, shot man, came right with the VPN connection, it was OpenVPN, using normal PPTP now and it's grafting like a charm
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> mrow__,: it will be pretty much the same
[22:19] <acicula> Geoffrey2: its also in karmic-backports afaik
[22:19] <h0rnman> when GDM shows, go OPTIONS --> Change Session to change to a failsafe terminal, then do it from the command line
[22:19] <Euthanatos> I'm not familiar with PPA maybe you can refer me to some documentation ActionParsnip ?
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> Geoffrey2, the mozilla ppa is gopod if you want the latest stuff
[22:19] <mrow__> actionparsnip: ok, tnx will try these thoroughly, will come up with update, tnx
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | Euthanatos
[22:20] <quentin> h0rnman: i'm a little dense on understanding how to edit a file when I can't see it
[22:20] <Euthanatos> thank you =)
[22:21] <Welshy-Rob> popey, anything about zatto coming to linux?
[22:21] <h0rnman> quentin, before you do a reconfigure, do:  "sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.backup", and if you need to restore the file, just do "sudo rm xorg.conf" followed by "sudo mv xorg.conf.backup xorg.conf"
[22:21] <quentin> h0rnman: i usually use my girlfriends monitor to edit the xorg.conf. since she's not here I'm lost to a blank screen if i use the command you gave me (maybe)
[22:21] <mamooli> is it possible to retrieve shift deleted files in ubuntu?
[22:21] <popey> Welshy-Rob: zattoo used to be on linux, they quit
[22:22] <acicula> !undelete
[22:22] <BAiNE> Please Help! I changed the ownership of /etc to myself instead of root so I could place my xorg.conf file in the folder. How can I change the ownership back to root?  I can no longer use "sudo". When I try, it says "/etc/sudoers is owned by uid 1000, should be 0".....
[22:22] <quentin> h0rnman: should i just write those commands blind
[22:23] <acicula> mamooli: not really, unless you consider using forensic tools to recover files
[22:23] <h0rnman> i wouldnt
[22:23] <Kashuya> acicula: I ticked both of those boxes but still can't ping a machine I know exists :(
[22:23] <Welshy-Rob> popey, how come linux is the best !
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> BAiNE,you will need to boot to root recovery console to get yourself out of the mess you made
[22:23] <acicula> BAiNE: boot a livecd ?
[22:23] <popey> Welshy-Rob: tell them that
[22:23] <mamooli> acicula: it's really neccarry for me
[22:23] <popey> Welshy-Rob: I already know this
[22:24] <erUSUL> BAiNE: reinstall ||  chown -R or chmod -R 777 is never the right answer
[22:24] <h0rnman> quentin, have you tried the dpkg-reconfigure method before?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> BAiNE,you can use sudo to make or edit the xorg file, setting your username to the owner of /etc is a REALLY REALLY *BAD* idea
[22:24] <BAiNE> ahhh!
[22:24] <BAiNE> will I have to re-install the entire system?
[22:25] <acicula> mamooli: well the links posted give some pointers, but it requires some expertise
[22:25] <shane2peru> anyone do data recovery from ntfs disk?
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> BAiNE,next time, just use sudo or gksudo to get write access to the folder or you will bork your system
[22:25] <acicula> !undelete | shane2peru
[22:25] <saraqual> righty, I am off, thanks guys
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> shane2peru,restore from backup is by FAR the easist
[22:25] <mamooli> acicula: i am a newbie, there really is no way?
[22:25] <duckx0r> can anyone do me a favor and tell me if my site is taking an extremely long time to load (i.e. 30+ seconds) https://secure.adventure-inn.com
[22:25] <shane2peru> ActionParsnip, yes, but this one isn't mine, it is for a friend, backup backup backup, that is my sermon
[22:26] <shane2peru> acicula, thanks
[22:26] <acicula> mamooli: look at the links, it sometimes is possible, if it really is important turn of the machine, unplug the disk, back it up and take it to someone with some computer skills
[22:26] <saraqual> duckx0r, 8 seconds, I am sitting in South Africa
[22:26] <saraqual> so fairly decent
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> shane2peru, ou can use foremost to recover files, tell your friend to get a backup regime and why its a really good idea
[22:26] <dansku> how do I convert a .avi to .mpg or .mov in ubuntu using the terminal???
[22:26] <mamooli> acicula: i am a great dumb ass
[22:27] <duckx0r> saraqual, thanks. guess it's not that bad. must be something here
[22:27] <saraqual> any case, I am off, cheerio lads, ta for all the help tonight
[22:27] <BAiNE> ActionParsnip: will I have to re-install ubuntu? or is there a way to recover from my mistake?
[22:27] <erUSUL> dansku: try ffmpeg -i file.avi file.mpeg
[22:27] <dansku> k, thanks
