[00:00] <sudokill> u shouldnt ever need a force install however u do that
[00:00] <ultrixx> sudokill: he wants to install a 32 bit package on his 64 bit installation
[00:00] <teage> I have ubuntu lucid 64 bit installed sudokill
[00:00] <sudokill> dodgy
[00:00] <ZykoticK9> teage, "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture foo.deb" be sure you have ia32 libs installed!
[00:00] <sudokill> teage i thought u meant install ubuntu 32 bit sorry
[00:00] <ActionParsnip> renoteck: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes
[00:00] <renoteck> why don?t starts the x server
[00:00] <teage> Zykotick9 : THANKS
[00:00] <sudokill> teage what r u trying to install
[00:00] <teage> sudokill: gens-gs
[00:01] <Arachon> tanath: I re-installed network-manager-gnome. Now I am getting something called "network monitor" in my applet list, but it's not the same as the usual "network manager" nor does it show up in any of the indicator-applets
[00:01] <sudokill> hmm idk what that is
[00:01] <teage> sega emulator
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> teage: is it on getdeb?
[00:01] <sudokill> sega emulator
[00:01] <sudokill> ok
[00:01] <sudokill> brb
[00:02] <renoteck> thanks: ActionParsnip
[00:02] <tanath> Arachon: hrm. well, i don't have a network manager applet in the list of applets either, but i think i have the one you're after and it seems to be part of the indicator applets
[00:02] <tanath> Arachon: i'm guessing it's related to the fact that you rolled your own
[00:02] <Arachon> tanath: Okay... But you only have network-manager-gnome installed?
[00:02] <tanath> Arachon: whereas i upgraded
[00:02] <Arachon> tanath: That does sound a bit odd, it should be the same repos, no?
[00:03] <tanath> Arachon: i do have that one and not the other, yes
[00:03] <Guest82965> i wonder if its because im a guest or because it wasnt a good question
[00:04] <sudokill> teage u can try --force-architecture on the package ive never tried it and dont know if its stable
[00:04] <sudokill> i doubt it
[00:04] <sudokill> i just quick googled it
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> Guest82965: i'd boot livecd to fsck the partiton
[00:04] <kneaux> Hi, I'm trying to change some keys around on my keyboard, specifically to add ø to my keyboard (trying to use danish dvorak), can anyone help?
[00:04] <ZykoticK9> Guest82965, you might want to boot from a LiveCD/USB and fsck your / partition?
[00:04] <tanath> Arachon: i also have gnome-applets which provides /usr/lib/gnome-applets/accessx-status-applet which could be what you're looking for
[00:05] <tanath> Arachon: not sure what that one does. only network-related-looking one
[00:05] <Arachon> tanath: As do I I'm afraid...
[00:05] <Arachon> tanath: As far as I know, the one I'm looking for is called nm-applet
[00:06] <tanath> Arachon: searching that turns up network-manager-gnome which i have installed...
[00:06] <Arachon> tanath: Yeah, same
[00:06] <lapaga> not a problem but am curious...when I reboot from windows the ip I get in xubuntu live cd is different than windows but if I cold boot it is the same.  any idea's why?
[00:07] <Guest82965> zykoticK9: is / automatically a partition, or do you have to make it that way, because I never manually made any partitions. But if it is naturally that way then I can certainly access the comand line and do the fsck command. And so do I set my BIOS order to the usb or cd?
[00:07] <tanath> Arachon: which provides nm-applet
[00:07] <steiner> does ubuntu still give out free ubuntu discs?
[00:07] <tanath> Arachon: and nm-connection-editor
[00:07] <Guest82965> zykoticK9: and thank you very much by the way
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> steiner: shipit is closed
[00:07] <sudokill> steiner- i dont think they do
[00:08] <ZykoticK9> Guest82965, if you used "automatic" partitioning in any way during install, then you have a / partition.   Sorry for wasting your time, it showed up when I ran it through the terminal... Should have done that first thing... My apologies <.<
[00:08] <tanath> steiner: you can download it though and put it on a bootable USB
[00:08] <tanath> Arachon: haha
[00:08] <steiner> yeah, ive done it, i was just wondering
[00:08] <almoxarife> lapaga: old boot and window are sharing same mac, livecd is not?
[00:08] <almoxarife> cold
[00:09] <lapaga> almoxarife, no the mac is the same
[00:09] <ezzeloharr> I tried running an (admittedly older, Intrepid Ibex?) release of Ubuntu on an older computer as a live OS, and I got an error message saying that the CPU was an i686, and that I needed a different kernel - do I need a different ISO?
[00:09] <Guest82965> ZykoticK9: oh okay I'm sure it automatically did that during the install. I tried to switch from windows to ubuntu and learn about linux while on Ubuntu, but even though it's user-friendly for a distro, I should've kept a distance while I learned. I'll definitely make a bootable usb thank you very much
[00:09] <sudokill> ezzeloharr, i think ubuntu is i3886 only
[00:10] <ZykoticK9> Guest82965, best of luck!
[00:10] <teage> Installed with dependency errors but it works just fine. weird.
[00:10] <ezzeloharr> sudokill: fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu, okay, thanks.
[00:10] <teage> woot woot!!! thanks guys
[00:10] <sudokill> ezzeloharr, np
[00:10] <sudokill> fu2
[00:10] <Guest82965> cheers
[00:10] <sudokill> lol
[00:10] <ZykoticK9> ezzeloharr, sudokill  i386 is really i686...
[00:10] <almoxarife> lapaga: using different wifi signals?
[00:11] <lapaga> almoxarife, nope...no wifi
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> ezzeloharr: sounds like you used a 64bit OS on a 32bit CPU, that wont work
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> sudokill: there is ppc and 64bit ubuntu available
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> sudokill: its not i386 only
[00:12] <ezzeloharr> okay - that sounds like me, I'll try again with a 32bit OS
[00:12] <borgin> hi! Please somebody help... Running on Natty 64 bit. When I try to safely remove a usb hard disk, there is a kernel panic some seconds later. Where can I start to look? On Maverick I never experienced this problem
[00:12] <almoxarife> lapaga: :) magic? someone more verse may have the answer
[00:12] <sudokill> ezzeloharr, i know dw lol
[00:12] <lapaga> almoxarife, thanks:)  just seems sort of strange to me
[00:13] <sudokill> ActionParsnip, I know theres 64 bit lol heard people having problems with i686 b4 tho
[00:13] <sudokill> i know ubuntu is optimized for i386
[00:13] <Legendario> i can`t see my evolution calendar appointments on the natty panel. It used to work on maverick. Does anyone know what happens?
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> (00:09:50) sudokill: ezzeloharr, i think ubuntu is i3886 only
[00:14] <sudokill> people have had problems with i686 cpu
[00:14] <ezzeloharr> sudokill: i suspect i used a 64bit version, probably my fault
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> sudokill: so if you know there is 64bit......
[00:15] <almoxarife> is livecd a virtualmachine?
[00:15] <sudokill> :)
[00:16] <KM0201> almoxarife: no, its a live cd
[00:16] <KM0201> lapaga: whats your wireless device chipset?
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: you can run the livecd in a VM
[00:17] <joh> How do I disable the nouveau driver at boot in 11.04? This doesn't work: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Nouveau#Disabling nouveau
[00:17] <lapaga> KM0201, I do not use wireless
[00:17] <KM0201> lapaga: oh ok, thought you said you had a wireless prob.
[00:18] <Quantum_Ion> What is the best usb tv plug in device for Ubuntu Linux
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> joh: add the boot option:  nouveau.blacklist=1
[00:18] <joh> ActionParsnip: Ok, thanks
[00:18] <Quantum_Ion> I searched the internet and I cannot find shit on usb internet tv
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | Quantum_Ion
[00:18] <Quantum_Ion> thanks
[00:19] <lapaga> KM0201, thanks anyways...it is not really a problem just was curious why my ip is different in xubuntu than it is in windows
[00:19] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: i'm not aware of any good ones that are USB... few PCI ones are pretty good.
[00:19] <KM0201> lapaga: hard telling... most routers you can tell them to assign an IP to a particular PC.
[00:20] <KM0201> lapaga: if you've not manually assigned IP's from the router, maybe something had the other Ip occupied when you turned on Ubuntu?..
[00:20] <almoxarife> ActionParsnip: I am trying to figure out if the issue is the same as mine, I can run 64bit native, not virtual, virtualbox or otherwise, turns out the chip does not allow for vt-x , took me a while to get over the fact I was not going to run 64bit anything in virtualbox
[00:20] <lapaga> KM0201, no router either
[00:20] <KM0201> lapaga: no router?.. then how do you have an IP.
[00:21] <lapaga> KM0201, dhcp enabled get ip from cable company
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: i dont have any CPUs newer than 1999 so mine don't support vt-x
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: if your cpu doesn't support it, you cant do it
[00:22] <almoxarife> ActionParsnip: yep
[00:23] <almoxarife> lapaga: you don't have a router between you and your cable company?
[00:24] <lapaga> almoxarife, it is a cable modem as far as I know it is not a router
[00:25] <lapaga> and that would not explain why it is different in windows and xubuntu
[00:25] <almoxarife> lapaga: which ip? public or internal?
[00:25] <lapaga> almoxarife, public
[00:26] <KM0201> lapaga: if it is giving you a wireless signal, it is a combination router/modem
[00:26] <KM0201> lapaga: can you connect more than 1 device at a time to it?
[00:26] <lapaga> KM0201, no wireless and no I can only connect my computer to it
[00:26] <KM0201> lapaga: meaning, can you have more than 1 wireless device, or 1 wired and 1 wirelss, device.
[00:27] <almoxarife> lapaga: back to 2 macs then
[00:27] <KM0201> lapaga: can you look at the model name/number on the router and tell me what it is... i find that pretty hard to believe
[00:27] <john_rambo> I don't find a dropbox menu on the right click menu ......as shown in the dropbox web site .......http://bit.ly/lFJCv0 .....Using 10.04 Gnome 2.x
[00:28] <joh> ActionParsnip: Thanks, that seemed to work. That will fall back to the vesa driver..?
[00:29] <atlambert> hi
[00:29] <almoxarife> lapaga: on the bright side, your isp has given you two accounts thus far
[00:29] <atlambert> having problems installing ubuntu on my netbook
[00:29] <KM0201> atlambert: what kind of probs?
[00:29] <lapaga> KM0201, all it says on a lable is ambit and it only has one input from you ethernet cable
[00:29] <atlambert> in the past, i've been able to install ubuntu via usb on my netbook
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> joh: it will be using the nv driver
[00:29] <atlambert> i can't get the usb to boot, though :/ i can go into windows (which is the current os) and see the installer. but it has that wubi thing for installing ubuntu along side windows
[00:30] <KM0201> lapaga: ok, can you have a wired connection, and a wireless connection? (at the same time?)
[00:30] <atlambert> i want to KILL windows and everything, and just start fresh w/ ubuntu
[00:30] <atlambert> i can't get it to boot into it though :/
[00:30] <lapaga> KM0201, no
[00:30] <lethu> is there an easy way to install all the e17 dependencies before starting the compilation ?
[00:30] <KM0201> atlambert: don't kill windows if you're having trouble w/ this.
[00:30] <atlambert> i feel like the problem is w/ the contents of the iso
[00:30] <KM0201> lapaga: wel, i'd be really interested in hear the model # of that router.
[00:30] <atlambert> KM0201 :/ windows 7... runs like trash on this netbook
[00:30] <andrejk> Hi all, I need bit of help with a problem: I'm trying to reset my old Dell computer to factory settings. However, their CTRL+F11 on startup hint from manual doesnt work. I think this is because long ago I installed dual boot with Ubuntu, and now it's loading the GRUB loader on boot instead of the Dell loader (i think?). Is there a way to remove GRUB loader, so maybe the CTRL+F11 thing will work?
[00:31] <KM0201> atlambert: how much experience do you have w/ ubuntu?
[00:31] <atlambert> km0201 it's been fine in the past
[00:31] <lapaga> KM0201, the strange thing is if I do a cold boot I get the same ip as windows
[00:31] <KM0201> lapaga: i dunno, what you're saying really doesn't make sense
[00:31] <atlambert> KM0201 decent but i'm not a power user. i usually end up reinstalling ubuntu because of updates being weird
[00:31] <KM0201> lapaga: is it giving you a 192.168.x.x IP?
[00:32] <jiohdi> lethu, I just did apt-get install e17whatever and had no problem with any dependencies
[00:32] <KM0201> atlambert: i'd really encourage you not to nuke windows, and instead set up a dual boot
[00:32] <atlambert> KM0201 dont have space for that
[00:32] <lethu> jiohdi, I am installing it through svn
[00:32] <RevSpecies116> andrejk: What about just pressing F11, without the ctrl key?
[00:32] <zerothis> is there a UNE channel?
[00:32] <lapaga> KM0201, no- it has nothing to do with an internal ip - it is only the public ip that changes...like I said it is not a problem I was just curious as to why
[00:32] <lethu> jiohdi, is there a way to install just the dependencies ?
[00:33] <almoxarife> atlambert: you installed ubuntu via wubi?
[00:33] <atlambert> KM0201 it takes quite a long time to uninstall everything. as i said, performance is awful
[00:33] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: I can try
[00:33] <KM0201> lapaga: dunno, hard telling
[00:33] <Byan> does anyone know how to change mouse sensivity? whats the program that gnome ubuntu uses? is there a console program?
[00:33] <atlambert> almoxarife no. doesnt that mean my only option is install alongside windows?
[00:33] <KM0201> atlambert: well did you try to boot the USB?  if so, what happened?
[00:33] <demian0> i dont know where to start for power management, everything was fine back in the 9 versions.. any app i may missing or smtng?
[00:33] <Byan> lxinput is segfaulting and I need an alternative
[00:33] <RevSpecies116> Sounds like a bios keypress, on my laptop my key to press is F1
[00:33] <RevSpecies116> just F1
[00:33] <atlambert> KM0201 yep i try to boot from usb and... nothing happens. just launches windows as normal
[00:33] <jiohdi> lethu, if you know what they are, there are websites with all the individual pieces, but thats really a hard way to do it
[00:33] <RevSpecies116> sometimes it is the del key
[00:33] <KM0201> atlambert: you probably need to put the USB device first in your boot order.
[00:33] <atlambert> km0201 i tried unetbootin and the default ubuntu usb creator to format this
[00:34] <andrejk> ok I'll try all those
[00:34] <atlambert> km0201 tried that in setup (f2). tried selecting usb using ESC at boot
[00:34] <lapaga> KM0201, if you do a whois on me...the ip that is showing is not the same as windows is what I mean
[00:34] <RevSpecies116> OKies, andrejk :) Do come back and let us know if that works or doesn't work :)
[00:34] <atlambert> KM0201 for what it's worth, i'm booting from an ipod. :/
[00:34] <lethu> jiohdi, ok
[00:35] <jiohdi> lethu, is there a reason you have to do it the hard way?
[00:35] <atlambert> shit i actually gotta run ><
[00:35] <almoxarife> atlambert: a wubi install of ubuntu will place the complete filesystem in one file, I ran it that way for along time, and adds ubuntu as a second OS
[00:35] <KM0201> ..\
[00:35] <lethu> jiohdi, svn should be the latest version
[00:35] <jiohdi> almoxarife, a wubi install can very easily become unstable after a single update and crash everything
[00:35] <KM0201> almoxarife: wubi isn't gonna solve his problem, and wubi creates far more (potential) problems than is necessary
[00:36] <atlambert> almoxarife i have like a gb of free space, and it takes years to uninstall one thing in windows because it chugs awfully on this ancient netbook
[00:36] <LAcan> guys, what is the ubuntu equivalent of the path environment variable in windows?
[00:36] <atlambert> shit i gotta afk
[00:36] <atlambert> i'll be back in like an hour
[00:36] <atlambert> msg me if you have any ideas :/
[00:36] <atlambert> thanks
[00:37] <jiohdi> LAcan, $PATH
[00:37] <almoxarife> atlambert: trust me, the unstall for wubi ubuntu is quick, as a matter of fact you can unstall it by simply deleting one folder 'ubuntu'
[00:37] <zerothis> atlambert: please keep it family friendly
[00:37] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: I tried F11, F1, Del, they all lead me to "GNU GRUB", a big list with all kinds of Ubuntu's and my Windows XP. Nothing that says "restore", as the manual says there should be after pressing CTRL+F11
[00:37] <LAcan> thanks jiohdi .. do you know how I edit it?
[00:38] <jiohdi> lacan try $PATH --man
[00:38] <RevSpecies116> :( andrejk
[00:38] <andrejk> Maybe I overwrote the partition with one of my Ubuntu's... :S
[00:38] <RevSpecies116> That is possible andrejk
[00:38] <KM0201> almoxarife: you're just repeating yourself, and not listening to what he's telling you
[00:38] <joh> I've got some weird behaviour here. High I/O load seems to cause X rendering to stutter, even with the vesa driver...
[00:38] <LAcan> jiohdi, ya there is no man page as far as I can tell? that command returns an error
[00:38] <andrejk> I do have a "Dell Utility Partition", but that leads me to some screen where I can make some tests
[00:38] <jiohdi> almoxarife, the problem is that wubi is a file within windows and a single update can alter the pointers to find the kernel and crash everything
[00:39]  * KM0201 agrees w/ jiohdi
[00:39] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: I just need to wipe my computer because I want to sell it :( Dont want my personal data in there and stuff
[00:39] <KM0201> at least w/ a normal dual boot system, usually, at least 1 OS will boot... you bricka  wubi install, neitehr will boot
[00:39] <almoxarife> jiohdi: you may have had those issues, I did not, I found the fix to that issue and it was 100% fool proof!
[00:39] <jiohdi> KM0201, happened to me three times before I found out what was going on
[00:39] <joh> While 'stress -d 2' is running, a simple 'ls /usr/bin' sometimes takes as long as 18 seconds.
[00:40] <atlambert> back for a min
[00:40] <RevSpecies116> andrejk: there could be a liveCD version of what you want
[00:40] <atlambert> zerothis sorry
[00:40] <joh> Doing 'ls /usr/bin' from ssh, however, is fast.
[00:40] <jiohdi> almoxarife, then you should also share that part as it is critical to the success of wubi
[00:40] <KM0201> almoxarife: it still doesn't matter, please tell me how he can use wubi, w/ only 1gig of free space... (again, you're just repeating yourself, and not listening to why he can't use wubi)
[00:40] <almoxarife> jiohdi: I would love to
[00:40] <RevSpecies116> government strenght deletion on a livecd - I have no idea what distro that would be, though. gparted?
[00:42] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, ubuntu rescure remix?
[00:42] <jiohdi> rescue*
[00:42] <almoxarife> jiohdi: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Wubi_9.10&oldid=214
[00:42] <ubuntucork> KM0201: Forgive me for being late to the party, but wubi with lucid rocks and if your crafty you can symlink your ubuntu home Directory important subdirectories like Documents, Photos etc etc to your windows ones :)
[00:42] <Mwthink> look up nuke live cd. I forgot the full name but there is a really tiny OS made exactly for secure hard drive wiping
[00:42] <KM0201> ubuntucork: you're not only late to the conversation, what you've said is totally irrlevant
[00:43] <atlambert> almoxarife KM0201 yeah i don't quite understand either. i'm gonna try play with wubi and see if i'm missing something here
[00:43] <KM0201> atlambert: you only ave 1gig of space.. hwo the heck are you gonna use wubi?
[00:43] <ubuntucork> KM0201: fair enough. I'm a trainee politician
[00:43] <RevSpecies116> rescue remix will safely/government-shead delete files, jiohdi ? andrejk is preparing to sell on his computer and wants it to be securly wipede
[00:44] <KM0201> atlambert: i'd strongly advise you not to do that.. but hey, we all gotta learn on our own..
[00:44] <RevSpecies116> shead = shread
[00:44] <almoxarife> atlambert: the point about wiping windows is valid, don't do it, unless you are willing to start from scratch with a virgin netbook
[00:44] <ubuntucork> KM0201: can the person concerned not use a 4GB USB stick?   dead cheap these days.
[00:44]  * KM0201 facepalms
[00:44] <KM0201> ubuntucork: seriously, scroll up.
[00:45] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, not sure if it has that sort of strength.
[00:45] <atlambert> KM0201 2.65 gb to be exact
[00:45] <RevSpecies116> Frustration will only give you wrinkles, KM0201 ;)
[00:45] <atlambert> how about i reframe the question
[00:45] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, you can get blowfish from omziff they have that kind of strenght
[00:46] <almoxarife> wubi is a authorized method of install, wubi works, not everyone wants to run linux terminal ubuntu, power to the user, its suppose to be easy!
[00:46] <ubuntucork> KM0201: I only see about the 1GB space with wubi, so from what I see the question about spalshing out 10 quid on a 4GB stick
[00:46] <RevSpecies116> is that on a livecd, jiohdi ?
[00:46] <KM0201> RevSpecies116: i'm not frustrated... i just can't believe he not only is talking irrelevant, he's suggesting somethign he's already said he's having an issue w/ (booting from a USB)... so now.. he wants him to use wubi, on a hard drive that has about 2gigs of space, or he wants him to use a USB, on a machine eh can't figure out how to boot a USB on...
[00:46] <ubuntucork> is still valid :)
[00:46] <atlambert> how do i (a) wipe windows on my netbook, and then (b) install ubuntu?
[00:46] <KM0201> ubuntucork: no its not
[00:46] <ubuntucork> aaaaah right...oops!!!
[00:46]  * KM0201 sighs
[00:46] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, not sure about that part
[00:46] <atlambert> preferrably in one step
[00:46] <ubuntucork> I didnt see before i came in, so now i have you!!
[00:47] <xangua> almoxarife: just good to give a try to ubuntu, for daily usage better do a real install
[00:47] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: I'm in partition magic, booting from a Ubuntu Live CD, and I *DO* see a "Dell Restore" partition. It has 2.4Gb used stuff in it
[00:47] <Mwthink> atlambert, just install Ubuntu and have it overwrite Windows
[00:47] <atlambert> Mwthink that's the problem
[00:47] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: I just need to boot from it somehow
[00:47] <atlambert> Mwthink i can't get the usb to boot
[00:47] <ubuntucork> Mwthink: not a good idea unless you have backups :-)
[00:48] <almoxarife> atlambert: how much hd space do you have?
[00:48] <atlambert> almoxarife 2.65 gb
[00:48] <RevSpecies116> ubuntucork: We shall assume all backups are already done
[00:48]  * KM0201 backing out o this conversation, because the advice given here is so ridiculous, i don't want my name associated with it
[00:48] <atlambert> KM0201 haha
[00:48] <mouse> I'm having problems with the startup disk creator.  The bootable usbs is makes don't work right.  Has anyone noticed this?
[00:48] <atlambert> mouse ME
[00:48] <atlambert> mouse ME
[00:48] <ubuntucork> RevSpecies116: Assuming backups, keeping small computer shops in business all this time ;-)
[00:49] <xangua> mouse: i preffer to use unetbootin or multyboot
[00:49] <RevSpecies116> Let's just resolve the problem for this chap, eh, ubuntucork
[00:49] <ubuntucork> Kill Bill? ;-)
[00:49] <qin> mouse: Plug your stick and see if bios detect it (it may be unbootable stick)
[00:49] <m0ksha> hi, I have a broadcom wifi card but i don't have a network cable available to me.  Usually i have to install this driver from the hardware drivers tab in the ubuntu administration menu.  Can I download the driver and install it manually?
[00:49] <mouse> xangua, Yeah but even unetbootin hasn't been doing so well.  I'll look into multyboot though.
[00:50] <mouse> qin, It's bootable.
[00:50] <RevSpecies116> now, ubuntucork, for the sake of this help process, also assume that WUBI is out of the question: and continue from there
[00:50] <ubuntucork> okdokey
[00:50] <Jordan_U> mouse: In what way do they not work?
[00:50] <almoxarife> atlambert: KM0201 point is valid, my bad, forget wubi, you don't have the space, I am surprized, a 2g hard drive? don't fuckup windows, you might never load another system on that laptop/nettop what ever its called.
[00:51] <IdleOne> almoxarife: no swearing please
[00:51] <ubuntucork> backup all data to a cloud service where possible, as using a USB drive is now out of the question or thus far assumed to be
[00:51] <almoxarife> IdleOne: sorry
[00:51] <RevSpecies116> with a 2GB HDD, wouldn't xubuntu or lubuntu be better?
[00:51] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, puppy or quirky :)
[00:51] <almoxarife> DSL?
[00:52] <RevSpecies116> ubuntucork: He has installed ubuntu from USB before, it just happens to be the UNE version that will not boot from USB
[00:52] <jiohdi> RevSpecies116, or maybe ICEwm
[00:52] <mouse> Jordan_U, It keeps saying something like unable to locate linuz file or something like that.  I found some forum that said if you change a path then it will boot right but then it just doesn't give an error message.
[00:52] <KM0201> RevSpecies116: xubuntu and lubuntu, still require (more or less) the same amount of space as Ubuntu (maybe a tad less)..
[00:53] <KM0201> i dobut he'd save much space going w/ either of those.
[00:53] <m0ksha> is it possible to manually install proprietary drivers in ubuntu?
[00:53] <xangua> almoxarife: atlambert there is also lubuntu, lxde
[00:53] <jiohdi> puppy can run in about 500mB
[00:53] <RevSpecies116> Ahh, OKies, KM0201 - didn't know that
[00:53] <KM0201> RevSpecies116: lubuntu is probably the smallest of the 4... but.. it's still pretty close.. we're talking only a couple 100mb i'd bet.
[00:53] <ubuntucork> RevSpecies116: I hate to admit it but with space at a premium then the best but user unfriendly way to do it is with Slackware
[00:54] <jiohdi> you can also use business card debian and then only install exactly what you wish
[00:54] <RevSpecies116> ubuntucork: only unfriendly for those new to Linux ;) I've used Slackware - quite like all the time spent at the terminal ;)
[00:54] <ubuntucork> can install only the drivers needed one by one etc etc.  Not an easy task for a GUI setup
[00:54] <almoxarife> atlambert: let me understand, the HD came with 2gig or you are left with 2G?
[00:55] <jiohdi> puppy is reasonably noob friendly as long as you do not want to install something new
[00:55] <s093294> Im having abit of cmake issues, anyone able to give me some inputs from the errors : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/614742/
[00:55] <ubuntucork> RevSpecies116: I agree but, then I am runing Lucid and salivating about 12.04 LTS and not whats in between :)
[00:55] <s093294> Im having abit of cmake issues, anyone able to give me some inputs from the errors : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/614742/  (trying to compile opencv for android)
[00:55] <RevSpecies116> OKies, atlambert, we are at an empasse. How do you want to go forward? How much space do you have on your netbook if you formatted the whole thing?
[00:55] <RevSpecies116> 2GB seems like 'not the truth' so to speak
[00:56] <jiohdi> 2G is usually the recovery partition
[00:56] <ubuntucork> Whats this mythical OS called "Windows" you speak of? ;-)
[00:56] <almoxarife> so to speak :) , kindness always
[00:57] <BBHood> in 11.04, how do I change the folder that the "pictures" screensaver uses
[00:57] <BobTheGreat> how do I turn off unity intellihide without having maximized windows end up partially covered by the launcher?
[00:57] <RevSpecies116> ubuntucork: I also am on Lucid - and eagerly awaiting 12.04LTS (I only use the LTS releases). I'm sad that unity is not being backported to Lucid, though
[00:58] <kerebrus> Anyone know a good RSS reader?
[00:58] <almoxarife> kerebrus: google reader?
[00:59] <Soupermanito> i have a process called mmpong-gl, thats the client of the mmpong game, is consuming most than half the cpu process, but is closed, and killing it whit sudo kill `pidof mmpong-gl` does nothing
[01:00] <IdleOne> Soupermanito: try killall mmpong-gl
[01:00] <Soupermanito> did that
[01:00] <Soupermanito> no luck
[01:00] <kerebrus> almoxarife any others?
[01:00] <ZykoticK9> IdleOne, is -9 next ;) Soupermanito
[01:00] <almoxarife> kerebrus: evolution? thunderbird?
[01:01] <IdleOne> ZykoticK9: I guess he could try a kill -9
[01:01] <RevSpecies116> atlambert: are you being helped in private - you have gone 'quiet'
[01:01] <ZykoticK9> IdleOne, "killall -9 mmpong-gl" Soupermanito
[01:01] <jaggy> does anybody know why my wobbly windows are not smooth all the time?
[01:01] <Polah> Is the Ubuntu Classic DE (GNOME) GNOME2 or 3?
[01:01] <IdleOne> Polah: gnome2
[01:01] <KM0201> 2
[01:01] <Soupermanito> :D AWESOME
[01:02] <Soupermanito> thanks IdleOne ZykoticK9
[01:02] <Polah> IdleOne, KM0201 alright thanks
[01:02] <IdleOne> Soupermanito: the -9 way should be last resort though
[01:02] <Soupermanito> but i tried killing it like 3 gazillion times, from consoles, virtual terminals, top, kill, killall
[01:03] <Soupermanito> what does -9 do?
[01:03] <Soupermanito> wait ill ask google
[01:03] <chelz> +"-9"
[01:03] <ZykoticK9> Soupermanito, it kills without asking for permission
[01:04] <almoxarife> I kill processes from 'system monitor' I am a sucker for a GUI
[01:04] <hiexpo> hola all
[01:04] <Soupermanito> also tried that
[01:04] <ZykoticK9> Soupermanito, a regular kill basically asks the process to stop, the -9 just stops it
[01:04] <Soupermanito> hola hiexpo
[01:04] <IdleOne> Soupermanito: then I guess you had no other choice :)
[01:04] <Soupermanito> :D
[01:04] <Soupermanito> yes thank you
[01:05] <Soupermanito> i only realized because i had to kill another process and went to the system monitor and said WHAT?!
[01:05] <IdleOne> Soupermanito: just saying not to use -9 all the time because you might end up killing a process that is just taking a very long time to save work or something and you will lose that work.
[01:05] <Shariff> Hi there

[01:06] <felipe__> donde busco ese canal
[01:06] <Usuario> I need a command to change every file in my machine owned by hihihi100:hihihi100 to dexter:dexter

[01:07] <Soupermanito> felipe solo escribi: /join #ubuntu-es
[01:07] <felipe__> ok gracias
[01:07] <hiexpo> welcome
[01:07] <quint> well, i was able to host a download server when i had windows installed and stream using upnp and transcode and still not have a choppy response when typing and using the mouse
[01:08] <chelz> quint: try renicing the process
[01:08] <Usuario> what does chmod do?
[01:08] <quint> i do that lots chelz
[01:08] <chelz> Usuario: man chmod
[01:08] <hiexpo> Usuario, man chmod
[01:08] <entombed> test
[01:08] <chelz> entombed: error
[01:08] <ZykoticK9> Usuario, it changes the permission on a file
[01:08] <Usuario> care to explain instead of copying a command?
[01:08] <Usuario> ok, thanks
[01:09] <BBHood> I looked up my issue on google, the methods i found didn't work
[01:09] <BBHood> I got some kind of permission error
[01:09] <Usuario> and whats the difference between chown and chmod?
[01:09] <bazhang> !permissions > BBHood
[01:09] <IdleOne> Usuario: chown == change owner
[01:09] <ZykoticK9> Usuario, chown -> owner vs. chmod -> permission
[01:10] <IdleOne> chmod is actually change mode bits
[01:10] <IdleOne> but yeah permissions
[01:10] <hiexpo> hola IdleOne
[01:10] <IdleOne> heya hiexpo
[01:10] <Usuario> i see, idleone, zykotick9, can you tell me a command that changes the owner? I need to change every file owned by hihihi100:hihihi100 to dexter:dexter
[01:10] <chelz> users vs groups is a bad design
[01:10] <IdleOne> Usuario: the link ubottu sent you about permission also explains about changing ownership iirc
[01:11] <BBHood> ah, I used sudo
[01:11] <BBHood> but got a whole bunch of file now found errors
[01:11] <Usuario> idleone, I dont see any highlighted link
[01:11] <Skaperen> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a multiboot box ... tried 11.04 and it hangs ... tried 10.10 and it hangs ... tried 10.04.2 and it hangs at a different spot
[01:11] <BBHood> *not
[01:11] <ZykoticK9> Usuario, the command to change the owner would be "sudo chown dexter:dexter file.foo" but you'll need a fancy "find" command to find all files with user hihihi100
[01:11] <IdleOne> !permission | Usuario
[01:12] <BBHood> while I'm on about personalization
[01:12] <Usuario> zykotick9, yes, I need a find command, is there any?
[01:12] <BBHood> how do i change the sound that plays when I sign on?
[01:12] <ZykoticK9> Usuario, yes - but "I" don't know how
[01:12] <Skaperen> for 11.04 and 10.10 it hangs after I click "Install Ubuntu" from the big window choice ... for 10.04.2 it makes to where it asks me for the keyboard and then it hangs
[01:12] <almoxarife> Skaperen: no issues with the install drive?
[01:13] <Skaperen> almoxarife: Slackware is running on it just fine ... and when I run Ubuntu as a live CD (try it mode) it works OK, reads the disk OK, etc
[01:14] <Skaperen> almoxarife: seems to be the install steps hanging ... I also tried running it by clicking on the install icon from live/try mode ... same hang
[01:14] <almoxarife> Skaperen: all these installs with networl support?
[01:14] <jiohdi> Skaperen, I have only seen that when there is some sort of disk corruption... if you wipe the entire disk and partitions that usually goes away
[01:14] <Skaperen> almoxarife: I let it sit there for 45 minutes with one of the 11.04 tries ... stayed hung right there with mouse rotor spinning
[01:15] <bencc1> how can I output a public gpg key as ascii? something like http://dpaste.com/548109/
[01:15] <Skaperen> jiohdi: well, I have other OSes on there
[01:15] <jiohdi> Skaperen, are you able to create a seperate partition and leave it completely empty, no formatting?
[01:15] <andrejk> RevSpecies116: Downloaded Darik's Boot and Nuke. Looks like that'll work. w00t
[01:16] <Skaperen> jiohdi: yup ... even did it from within Ubuntu live/try mode a couple days ago for the initial partitioning
[01:16] <Lajnold> Usuario: for f in `find <path> -user hihihi100`; do sudo chown dexter:dexter "$f"; done
[01:16] <Skaperen> jiohdi: but I installed Slackware and Fedora first then came back to Ubuntu ... maybe it's mad?
[01:16] <Lajnold> A quick solution that should work.
[01:16] <jiohdi> Skaperen, sorry, I am still a relative noob, out of ideas
[01:17] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, I'd try booting with the nomodeset option, see if that makes any difference.  Good luck.
[01:17] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: how to do that?
[01:18] <jiohdi> anyone know why unity gets obliterated when you use a dock like docky or cairo or awn?
[01:18] <Usuario> lajnold, I want to change the permissions from hihihi100:hihihi100 to dexter:dexter, not the other way round, as of now I cannot access the ubuntu GUI, I can only access the recovery mode terminal, are you saying that I should execute that as hihihi100, not as root or dexter?
[01:18] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, press a button (space maybe) at the first graphic of the LiveCD then I think you get an F6 option for boot options - nomodeset is in there.
[01:18] <jaymeskeller> Hey, having an x problem with ubuntu 11.04. Sometimes, X seems to crash, leaving the screen corrupted with many coloured squares. I have to reboot in order to fix it. If it helps, I'm running two NVIDIA GTX 5xx cards in SLI mode.
[01:18] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: OK ... I'll go back to 11.04 and try that
[01:19] <Lajnold> Usuario: Execute it as the user that has permission to use sudo.
[01:19] <IdleOne> Usuario: that command will "find" all files owned by hihihi100 and then it will chown to dexter:dexter
[01:20] <Usuario> thanks idleone, I just thought it would find the ones oewned by dexter...
[01:20] <m0ksha> can anybody help me install broadcom drivers without internet access?
[01:21] <Usuario> idleone, lajnold, I have to write --- sudo chown dexter:dexter "$f" --- only, right?
[01:21] <IdleOne> up to and including the word done
[01:21] <Lajnold> Usuario: Do the whole line I sent you, starting from "for".
[01:21] <IdleOne> for f in `find <path> -user hihihi100`; do sudo chown dexter:dexter "$f"; done
[01:21] <IdleOne> all that
[01:21] <Usuario> lajnold, holy sh*t, so its ---  for f in `find <path> -user hihihi100`; do sudo chown dexter:dexter "$f" --- ?
[01:22] <Shariff> If I just paused a script by ctrl-z how do I continue it again?
[01:22] <Lajnold> Usuario: Yeah. But change "<path>" to the actual path.
[01:22] <Lajnold> Shariff: "fg"
[01:22] <Shariff> thanks!
[01:22] <Usuario> lajnold, it should be all my machine, is it ok if I write /usr ?
[01:23] <Lajnold> Usuario: The "home" directory is generally located under /home, so that's probably what you want to use.
[01:23] <ZykoticK9> Usuario, if you want "all my machine" then use /  -- be careful!
[01:24] <Usuario> zykotick9, lajnold, my issue is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1708173&page=2 please read the last 2 post, mines

[01:25] <alex__> http://pastebin.com/0S6NcxEi
[01:26] <Jordan_U> Lajnold: Usuario: That will fail with any files that have spaces in them. Find has a -exec option specifically for this type of thing: find /home/foo/ -user hihi100 -exec sudo chown dexter:dexter '{}' \;
[01:26] <alex__> Apt-get seems to be messed up...
[01:26] <alex__> Tried dpkg --unpack /var/cache/apt/archives/gnome-session_3.0.2-0ubuntu3~natty1_all.deb
[01:26] <alex__> got this: http://pastebin.com/cJNLAh2h
[01:26] <bencc1> how can I switch to a user (su) without a password?
[01:26] <Jordan_U> bencc1: What is your end goal?
[01:27] <rww> bencc1: sudo su usernamehere
[01:27] <rww> bencc1: or sudo -iu username, I guess
[01:27] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: no go ... once I ran the installer, it goes to where it asks if I want third party software, I click forward, and then it's hung right there, just as before
[01:27] <alex__> Any ideas how I can fix this problem that the error messages describe?
[01:27] <hiexpo> hmm
[01:27] <Usuario> jordan_u, it should also be applied to folders owned by hihihi100 out of the home dir
[01:27] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, sorry, I don't have any other suggestions.  Best of luck.
[01:27] <bencc1> Jordan_U: I want to create gpg keys for a user that was created by a package
[01:28] <nit-wit> alex__, how did you load the gnome 3 desltop opr have you complately?
[01:28] <bencc1> rww:  sudo su doesn't work
[01:28] <Shariff> How do I know which kernel I am using (amd64)?
[01:28] <ZykoticK9> Shariff, uname -a
[01:28] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: I guess I'll just have to ask on the forums
[01:28] <Jordan_U> Usuario: Then change the path as needed.
[01:29] <alex__> nit-wit, sorry, what?
[01:29] <Shariff> ZykoticK9: Thanks!.. how do I get the source for that kernel, using apt-get?
[01:29] <ZykoticK9> Shariff, ? sorry, you might want to see !kernel i believe
[01:29] <nit-wit> alex__,  see gnome 3 can you give us the background, did you put a ppa in the repo list?
[01:29] <nit-wit> *iI
[01:30] <Shariff> ZykoticK9: thanks!
[01:30] <nit-wit> *i
[01:30] <alex__> nit-wit, IIRC, yes
[01:30] <Shariff> ZykoticK9: Where would that file be?
[01:30] <alex__> I gave up on Gnome because of the high RAM usage though
[01:30] <ZykoticK9> !kernel > Shariff
[01:30] <Usuario> jordan_u, Im in the recovery mode console, and Im root, do I really need to execute that with sudo? should I change to dexter (user)?
[01:30] <nit-wit> alex__, areyou getting the gnome 3 desktop, you have 70 or so packages held.
[01:30] <alex__> So I'm quite happy with removing gnome 3 if that'd solve the problem
[01:30] <Shariff> Thanks!
[01:30] <Usuario> jordan_u or just drop sudo?
[01:31] <munson> anyone know of fix for 11.04 and Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M)
[01:31] <munson> no sound

[01:32] <Usuario> jordan_u this is why im doing this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1708173&page=2 read the last post
[01:32] <Jordan_U> Usuario: Just drop the sudo if you're at the recovery shell.
[01:33] <nit-wit> alex__, I would check around to see if you can put gnome 3 in Natty with ease I wonder as unity is a bit different, not sure really.  I installed Fedora 15 it has Gnome 3 as the desktop, typing from it as we speak.
[01:33] <zroysch> what IS unity
[01:33] <alex__> nit-wit, I don't want gnome-3 on natty
[01:33] <alex__> Been there, done that, don't like it
[01:33] <zroysch> all my ubuntu 11.04's tell me i cant run unity
[01:33] <alex__> Happy with getting rid of it if that would solve my problem
[01:33] <alex__> Ok?
[01:34] <nit-wit> alex__, If the PPA is still clicked on then your getting updates for it .
[01:34] <nit-wit> zroysch, the natty ubuntu desktop.
[01:34] <alex__> nit-wit, sorry but I'm not sure what point you're trying to make
[01:35] <clarkm> My box drops to grub on boot. For some reason I set it up to boot from some lvm configuration a while ago, but upgrading distros seems to hvae broken it. I've booted knoppix, but now I'm  at a loss on what to do. Is there some type of automatic reconfiguration tool?
[01:35] <Jordan_U> Usuario: How did you get into this situation in the first place?
[01:35] <zroysch> nit-wit: what would be preventing me from running it?
[01:35] <clarkm> to clarify, i have one physical volume that contains one volume group. And I want to boot from it
[01:35] <IdleOne> clarkm: if you are using a knoppix cd you should be asking in a knoppix channel
[01:36] <Jordan_U> clarkm: Is the shell you get at boot a "grub> " prompt or a "rescue> " prompt?

[01:37] <Usuario> jordan_u, for what I remember, I changed the "real name" of my hihihi100 to dexter, what I didn tknow is that hihihi100 Real Name was associated to hihihi100 username. THen I moved all the info in mu home folder named home/hihihi100 to home/dexter, and there are some steps I am not telling, but I dont remember ehich ones those are
[01:37] <alex__> nit-wit, apt-get is not working for me

[01:37] <FloodBot1> alex__: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:37] <alex__> I'm not flooding
[01:38] <clarkm> Jordan_U: no, it just drops to grub with no complaints
[01:38] <IdleOne> clarkm: no worries, Jordan_U is a chan op here so if he is ok with helping you I am good.

[01:38] <zroysch> nit-wit: not sure. its an athlonXP 2800+ with i think a geforce 6000 series
[01:38] <Usuario> jordan_u I believe it is because I should have created a totally new user, with a totally new username and group, and then move all the info from the old username to the new one, but I didnt know this 2 days ago
[01:39] <Usuario> jordan_u, so now I have to usernames, dexter and hihihi100 with conflicting info it seems
[01:40] <ZykoticK9> alex__, did you try to install Gnome3 at some point?
[01:40] <alex__> ZykoticK9, yes I did.
[01:40] <nit-wit> zroysch, can you like answer the actual question. What desktop can you run?
[01:41] <ZykoticK9> alex__, ya gnome-shell gave it away.  Best of luck.
[01:41] <zroysch> nit-wit: i'm running gnome right now
[01:41] <alex__> ZykoticK9, so I can't get support because of it?
[01:41] <ZykoticK9> alex__, no no - i just wouldn't have the foggiest idea how to fix it (just me)
[01:41] <zroysch> nit-wit: 2.32.1
[01:41] <Usuario> jordan_u, your command also changes the hidden files, doesnt it?
[01:41] <alex__> ZykoticK9, oh, lol, fair enough
[01:42] <Jordan_U> Usuario: It does.
[01:42] <nit-wit> zroysch, the gnome is unity, or you wpuld see gnome 2d, or classic gnome which one?
[01:42] <smiley__> hey guys,i need some help,i have a 320gb ide drive with 3 linux installs..
[01:42] <zroysch> nit-wit: it appears to be classic, from the looks of the unity ubuntu page
[01:42] <Jordan_U> clarkm: Could you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt?
[01:42] <smiley__> Ubuntu,Linux Mint,and PC Linux OS
[01:42] <Usuario> jordan_u, any new approach to get rid of could not update ICEauthority file /home/dexter/.ICEauthority thing?
[01:43] <nit-wit> zroysch, okay, name the graphic driver again.
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Usuario: That problem should be solved along with the other permissions issues.
[01:43] <smiley__> i want to Clone this whole drive to a new Sata 320gb drive
[01:43] <nit-wit> zroysch, the graphic card sorry.
[01:43] <BrunoPE> anybody know a player qt that download legend like totem do ?
[01:43] <smiley__> what software will clone All partitions ?
[01:44] <CarlFK> smiley__: http://clonezilla.org/
[01:44] <Usuario> jordan_u, what I dont understand, I have seen, in the recovery shell, the ICEauthority file, which exists, and its owned by dexter:dexter in home/dexter, why cant it update?
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> smiley__, check out the clonezilla LiveCD as CarlFK suggested
[01:44] <zroysch> nit-wit: geforce FX 5200 128MB AGP8X, NVIDIA driver 173.14.30
[01:44] <smiley__> with the Boot sector
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> smiley__, clonezilla does boot sectors ;)
[01:45] <smiley__> well this hard drive is a ide...my new drive will be Sata
[01:45] <CarlFK> ZykoticK9: will it copy my jpegs?
[01:45] <smiley__> will my linux installs,"Grub. care ?
[01:46] <Usuario> jordan_u cant it be updated because it looks for information in other files and folders, out of my home/dexter directory, that are still owned by hihihi100:hihihi100? thats why I asked for your command, to get rid of all hhihihi100:hihihi100
[01:46] <smiley__> or will my linux installs or grub still think its a ide drive?
[01:46] <Usuario> sordan_u, also have a problem with (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)
[01:47] <antihero> Is there any way to get the non-gui shell Pixel font for use in GUI applications?
[01:47] <ZykoticK9> smiley__, ide is treated as scsi these days anyways, thus sdX vs the old hdX - so IDE and SATA are the same as far as the kernel is concerned
[01:47] <smiley__> or will it fail to boot
[01:48] <xangua> !enter |  smiley__
[01:48] <Cairo|Laptop> what is the correct version of ubuntu to install on a 64 bit laptop?

[01:49] <alex__> herp derp
[01:49] <nit-wit> zroysch, I'm not a card driver person per-say for help I haven't had to do this myself. Here is a link though that your card shows on and links to the driver download I think,make sure you know whats up.   http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/100.14.11/README/appendix-a.html
[01:49] <Usuario> does netroot in the recovery mode shell allow me to download from the internet?
[01:50] <Usuario> cheer me up while I wait for my machine to end its command
[01:51] <nit-wit> Usuario, yes go to the netroot with the ether net plugged in
[01:51] <Usuario> nit-wit a, so my wireless connection is useless...
[01:51] <nit-wit> Usuario, I believe so.
[01:51] <Usuario> nit-wit a crap
[01:52] <nit-wit> Usuario, there might be a connect command but I don't know it.
[01:52] <olalonde> does anyone know how I can write a screensaver for Ubuntu? can't find docs on this
[01:52] <Usuario> nit-wit is there any general appendix with every possible command?
[01:53] <Connor__> hello, I'm having problems installing 11.04, can someone help me out?
[01:53] <Cairo|Laptop> alex__: does it need to be any specific version seeing as its a laptop?
[01:53] <alex__> Cario|Laptop: Um, no, shouldn't do
[01:53] <Cairo|Laptop> ok
[01:53] <nit-wit> Usuario, your fishing in a empty sea, just because I a=said there might be one does not mean there is one,  have never heard of one.
[01:53] <Cairo|Laptop> so the 64 bit desktop version

[01:55] <nit-wit> smiley__, no
[01:55] <clarkm> Jordan_U: the sda1 and sdb1 drives are connected via sata and I'm just using them as storage. I want to boot from the sdc drive
[01:55] <Jordan_U> clarkm: Please install 'unlzma' and re-run boot info script.
[01:56] <Usuario> jordan_u, would using the dpkg option in the recovery console be of any help for me?
[01:56] <smiley__> first ,i installed pclinux os,then i installed Ubuntu,then i installed Mint.
[01:56] <Jordan_U> Usuario: No.
[01:56] <m0ksha> I'm trying to install myh wifi driver without internet access following this doc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx but the driver doesn't show up in the hardware driver utility
[01:56] <smiley__> and they all made there own swap parition.
[01:57] <m0ksha> anybody know why?
[01:57] <Jordan_U> clarkm: It would be easier if you booted from an Ubuntu LiveCD.
[01:57] <jeeves__> what would the wget command be to spider ALL of my website looking for (and d-loading) one type of file (ie. .jpg)?
[01:58] <smiley__> will pclinuxos or ubuntu or Mint,get mad if i delete 2 swap paritions ?
[01:58] <clarkm> Jordan_U: I'll boot from the ubuntu liveCD and re-run it
[01:59] <smiley__> as the linux kernel expects a swap parition..
[01:59] <m0ksha> please someone help me! i can't activate my wifi driver!
[01:59] <Jordan_U> clarkm: I'm going to be away for about an hour.
[01:59] <smiley__> with every install
[01:59] <nit-wit> smiley__, can you post a image bin of gpartd looking at the hard drive.
[02:00] <RevSpecies116> m0ksha: you don't have ethernet access at all?
[02:00] <Usuario> jordan_u, my terminal shows the written command, the symbol > and a tiling cursor, is everything going ok?
[02:00] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: no!
[02:00] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: im currently booted on a different os, same machine
[02:01] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: but i dont have a cable so i have to install my driver manually
[02:01] <RevSpecies116> Is your computer detecting any type of network interface, or are you just insisting on getting wifi working?
[02:01] <RevSpecies116> Ahhh, m0ksha I see
[02:01] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: i tried following the section "no internet access" in this doc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[02:01] <RevSpecies116> then, unfortunatly, m0ksha this is going to be a slight problem
[02:02] <nit-wit> broadcom cough
[02:02] <smiley__> ok,i got the screenshot....now how do i post it ?
[02:02] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: but the drivers don't show up when it says they should be activatable
[02:02] <nit-wit> ! image.bin
[02:02] <nit-wit> ! image
[02:02] <ZykoticK9> !paste
[02:03] <nit-wit> smiley__, http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add
[02:03] <RevSpecies116> you will really need an internet connection to get this working, m0ksha. are you really unable to get to wired access to the internet?
[02:03] <nit-wit> ZykoticK9, thanks.
[02:03] <clarkm> Jordan_U: should I PM you the link, or should I just post it in the channel when it's done?
[02:03] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: well I don't have a WIRE
[02:03] <ZykoticK9> nit-wit, glad to help :)
[02:03] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: and I'm out of the country
[02:04] <smiley__> http://imagebin.org/155833
[02:04] <RevSpecies116> WOW, are you using a mobile connection, m0ksha - pricey
[02:04] <yuvateja_> what is the command for uninstall a pakage/
[02:04] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: no i'm using wifi lol
[02:04] <^one^>  /server irc.plasa.com
[02:04] <ZykoticK9> yuvateja_, "sudo apt-get remove FOO"
[02:04] <Jordan_U> clarkm: Just post it in-channel when it's done. That '>' prompt means that you forgot to close a quote and it's waiting for the rest of a multi line quote.
[02:04] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: I have internet access but not on my ubuntu installation
[02:05] <RevSpecies116> m0ksha: Ahhh
[02:05] <nit-wit> smiley__, all the swaps loo big enough remove two nothing bad will happen.
[02:05] <nit-wit> *look
[02:05] <Gwent> 'Ello 'ello, I was wondering if someone can help me. I have this really old Laptop that uses a Netgear 54 MBPS Wireless PC Card WG511 V2, and Ubuntu does not recognize it in any way. What can I do to get it working?
[02:06] <RevSpecies116> You could try getting ubuntu to work within a VM environment, and boot into your ubuntu proper with the prepared drivers/package?
[02:06] <yuvateja_> zykotick9,sudo dpkg -i*.deb like this
[02:06] <Gwent> Would that work? And if so, how would I go about it?
[02:06] <nit-wit> smiley__, right click on all them to make sure they are all off before removing.
[02:06] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: thats so complicated lol
[02:07] <Gwent> Ah, anythign simpler then?
[02:07] <ZykoticK9> yuvateja_, you asked about "uninstall", that dpkg -i is for installing
[02:07] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: why can't i just install a driver manually ffs
[02:08] <RevSpecies116> m0ksha: you may have to pester the makers of your network interface to provide OSS drivers?
[02:08] <yuvateja_> zykotick9,yes
[02:08] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: before i removed ubuntu this card worked fine with the proprietary driver enabled
[02:08] <ZykoticK9> yuvateja_, no (sorry I don't understand what you want)
[02:08] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: I just need to get the proprietary driver and manually stick it in
[02:08] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: but i dont know how
[02:08] <RevSpecies116> sorry, m0ksha - you saying you've had your card working in linux before fine?
[02:09] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116:  yes exactly
[02:09] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: it used to say Broadcom BCM .. driver enabled
[02:10] <RevSpecies116> Ahhh, m0ksha... It could be a kernel issue, then :(
[02:10] <m0ksha> RevSpecies116: what does it have to do with the kernel
[02:11] <yuvateja_> command for uninstall a package (not in online),
[02:11] <m0ksha> yuvateja_: that would be sudo dpkg -r package_name
[02:12] <m0ksha> does anyone know how to manually install a proprietary driver?
[02:12] <babalu> help plz
[02:12] <babalu> can  anyone tell me plz how to restore pulseaudio settings

[02:15] <RevSpecies116> Sorry, m0ksha - I'm not the one that can help :(
[02:15] <smiley__> ok,i will remove 2 swap partitions...i just hope Linux Mint and pclinux os find the ubuntu swap.

The only time it doesn't overheat is in the winter when it is super cold in the house. Can anyone help fix or at least make it a bit better.
[02:16] <m0ksha> Under the desktop menu System > Administration > Hardware/Additional Drivers, the b43 drivers can be activated for use.

[02:26] <Slie> what is the new desktop UI for ubuntu?
[02:26] <nit-wit> acovrig, With a freenode search there are no channels with the  honeyd in the header, do they have a forum?
[02:27] <w0lfie> McBlendart: i'm not using compiz, just stock kubuntu
[02:27] <ZykoticK9> Slie, Unity
[02:27] <McBlendart> Slie, ubuntu 11.04 uses the unity UI
[02:28] <Slie> were does it come from is it gnome or kde?
[02:28] <ZykoticK9> Slie, it comes from Canonical (Ubuntu), it uses Gnome underneath
[02:28] <acovrig> nit-wit: yea, but I like the IRC better ;) -u know of any alternatives to honeyd?
[02:29] <nit-wit> Slie, http://unity.ubuntu.com/about/  serach the web man.

[02:32] <acovrig> nit-wit: see ^
[02:33] <Loaf> runa : your probly running your monitor in at a resolution too high
[02:34] <nit-wit> acovrig, I was checking out the site, I don't really know enough about it or the use to be of any real help.;)

[02:41] <DANIEL-ALONE> i need some help about remote desktop connection
[02:41] <alex__> DANIEL-ALONE, k
[02:42] <DANIEL-ALONE> tnx
[02:42] <DANIEL-ALONE> how can i use it
[02:42] <kanoe> hello everyone,
[02:42] <alex__> DANIEL-ALONE, what do you want to do?
[02:42] <kanoe> i just have a problem
[02:42] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: lol, gonna have tob e more specific
[02:43] <DANIEL-ALONE> i want to connect one of my univercitys pc to my local pc
[02:43] <KM0201> !vnc | DANIEL-ALONE read it..
[02:43] <kanoe> i just remove a package named xkb-data unexpected and then the os(10.04) can not start to X or to tty1~6. i am now in the X by livecd, should i copy the xkb-data from this temp os to the origin os
[02:44] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: if you want a "dead nuts simple" way to do this.. w/o opening firewall ports, etc.. Google "Teamviewer".. it's very simple, and has Linux and Windows versions
[02:45] <KM0201> you'll just have to make sure it's running on your ubuntu PC when youre not near it.
[02:45] <quint> why did bill gates choose to call his OS windows ?    because you have to wipe it every so often. ja ja ja *
[02:46] <KM0201> quint: i lol'd
[02:46] <coolnquiet> DANIEL-ALONE: maybe just use SSH? port 22 is always open!
[02:46] <KM0201> coolnquiet: are you sure aout that?
[02:46] <coolnquiet> pretty sure?
[02:47] <kanoe> i just remove a package named xkb-data unexpected and then the os(10.04) can not start to X or to tty1~6. i am now in the X by livecd, should i copy the xkb-data from this temp os to the origin os
[02:47] <KM0201> coolnquiet: i just did a port scan on my system, and port 22 isn't responding
[02:47] <coolnquiet> :( you are an anomally then
[02:47] <KM0201> coolnquiet: no.. i'm behind a router, unless you forward port 22, i highly doubt its open all the time
[02:48] <DANIEL-ALONE> tnx for your support
[02:49] <sunhongzhi> hi
[02:51] <kescc> just found out how to use the Windows Key for the “Start” menu in ubuntu yay
[02:52] <ZykoticK9> kescc, please, you mean the "Super" key (bad name in my opinion)
[02:53] <frawgh> Good evening!
[02:53] <itaylor57> mine has the ubuntu logo
[02:53] <ZykoticK9> itaylor57, nice!
[02:53] <kescc> ZykoticK9 yeah Super L, but the button has that Windows logo on nearly every keyboard that is
[02:54] <ZykoticK9> kescc, oh I know what you mean.  In Gnu/Linux world we call it the "Super Key" instead of "Windows Key".
[02:55] <coolnquiet> I think microsoft promotes the keyboard shortcut to sometime sue all keyboardmakers and make a zillion dollars.
[02:55] <KM0201> itaylor57: where did you find that keyboard? ubuntu.com?
[02:56] <itaylor57> KM0201, lemur from system76
[02:56] <KM0201> oh ok
[02:57] <KM0201> itaylor57: do they sell just the keyboard?
[02:57] <itaylor57> KM0201, its actually a sticker that is placed over the key
[02:57] <KM0201> itaylor57: ohhhhhh....ok
[02:59] <number9> in fairly new install of natty I can't login after a hard reset. Any one have any idea how to fix that? I can move to vterm and everything seems to work fine as it does in the recovery session but a regular xfce session looks like it works and then I get loged out and am taken to the login screen, as if I had selected logout from the menu. Any ideas? I am pretty desperate, and am considering a re-install at this point
[02:59] <masterk3n> is there a evolution mail support channel?
[03:00] <Aginor> number9, if you create a brand new user, does it work for that user? - if that's the case, your settings might be corrupted for your normal user
[03:01] <br4dock3r> oie alguém ae no brasil o de portugal ou da espanha?/
[03:01] <number9> no I don't think they are becuase my home folder and the drive is completely intact I am fairly sure. Quick refresh how do you create a new user from the cli?
[03:01] <delphiwizard> hi

[03:01] <number9> Aginor: sorry that previous message was for you
[03:02] <delphiwizard> I couldnt figure out how to run linux, so i decided to run ubuntu instead. What are the advantages?
[03:02] <Aginor> number9, "adduser <username>"
[03:02] <ZykoticK9> delphiwizard, LOL - excellent quote
[03:02] <br4dock3r> thanks

[03:06] <clarkm> Jordan_U: here's the paste of bootinfoscript http://privatepaste.com/47fdae127c though, it still complains about unlzma even though it's installed on the ubuntu livecd
[03:06] <xylonic> Ubuntu 11.04 seems to randomly log me out at times. Any way to fix this?
[03:06] <Lacant> I am trying to integrate a systray into Scrotwm. Anybody know how?
[03:07] <delphiwizard> will i get in trouble for installing these games from the software center?
[03:08] <delphiwizard> i dont like piracy and i think ubuntu is making me pirate games
[03:08] <KM0201> delphiwizard: why would that be piracy?
[03:09] <xylonic> Ubuntu 11.04 randomly logs me out at times. How do I fix this?
[03:09] <munson> delphiwizard, its not called piracy..its call "try befo u buy" lol
[03:09] <munson> its free game d/l anything that installs on windoz
[03:09] <xylonic> Ubuntu 11.04 randomly logs me out. Need fix.
[03:10] <RevSpecies116> delphiwizard: Canonical has done the hard yards to get those game on the Software Center - use them freely knowing Canonical has your back
[03:10] <delphiwizard> ok so
[03:11] <number9> Aginor: Thanks! That worked any ideas to move forward?   I'm not even sure what GPT partitions are.  Glad you figured it out!
[03:12] <number9> Aginor: Thanks! That worked any ideas to move forward? Not sure my last message went through
[03:12] <delphiwizard> when you login switch to classic view
[03:13] <RevSpecies116> xylonic: step one, at the login screen choose Ubuntu Classic
[03:13] <xylonic> I am in Ubuntu Classic
[03:13] <delphiwizard> then you will login with the old 10.10 style
[03:13] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table
[03:13] <xylonic> Ok
[03:13] <delphiwizard> you want to disable effects then set it to low
[03:13] <RevSpecies116> xylonic: step two, goto system->preferences
[03:13] <delphiwizard> in your effects
[03:13] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: it's a requirement for drives (or RAID array created big drives) larger than 2TB
[03:14] <Aginor> number9, one sec, let me look at the backlog
[03:14] <RevSpecies116> Appearence, then visual effects tab set to 'none'
[03:14] <xylonic> System>Preferences then what?
[03:14] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, are you using Apple hardware by chance?
[03:14] <RevSpecies116> Appearence, then visual effects tab set to 'none'
[03:14] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: no
[03:14] <delphiwizard> system > preferences > PIRACY
[03:14] <xylonic> There is no visual effects tab tho.
[03:15] <xylonic> There are Theme, Background, Font Tabs
[03:15] <xylonic> No Visual Effects
[03:15] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: my drive is only 1TB ... just a cheap $300 box ... but I used GPT to get lots of partitions to make it a multiboot machine
[03:15] <delphiwizard> ubuntu doesnt have visual effects
[03:15] <RevSpecies116> Then you have to resort to terminal:
[03:15] <delphiwizard> for visual effects you have to use a mac
[03:15] <KM0201> delphiwizard: stop trolling
[03:15] <delphiwizard> my friends dad owns a comp store
[03:15] <RevSpecies116> xylonic: in a terminal type 'metacity --replace'
[03:15] <delphiwizard> he told me so
[03:16] <xylonic> metacity --replace ok
[03:16] <delphiwizard> nick slak
[03:16] <Aginor> number9, so your xfce settings or sessions are broken with your normal user, if it's a new install, try to rename .config/xfce and .cache/xfce in your home directory to something else and you should get the defaults next time you log in
[03:16] <slak> os[Linux 2.6.35-29-generic-pae i686] distro[Ubuntu "maverick" 10.10] cpu[4 x AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 635 Processor (AuthenticAMD) @ 2.91GHz] mem[Physical: 3.9GB, 86.1% free] disk[Total: 903.2GB, 83.2% free] video[10de:0de1] sound[HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB1: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia]
[03:16] <slak> hello
[03:16] <slak> slak here
[03:16] <slak> :)
[03:16] <FloodBot1> slak: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:16] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, GPT is certainly not required for multiboot...
[03:16] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: no, but it is a lot easier when you are setting up 53 partitions
[03:16] <slak> KM0201: just amusing myself
[03:16] <number9> Aginor: so that will just distroy xfce settings?
[03:17] <ovnicraft> hello where is the chrome tmp folder ?
[03:17] <KM0201> slak: well, amuse yourself in off-topic, this is for support... not your entertainment
[03:17] <ovnicraft> i want to see the buffered files
[03:17] <hilarie> okay... so I installed ubuntu 10.10 onto a 8gb thumb drive, from my main laptop, now that main laptop wont boot
[03:17] <Aginor> number9, if you rename them, it will just move them somewhere where xfce won't look for them, not destroy them, but yes, it will have the same effect as getting rid of them
[03:17] <Aginor> number9, sorry for all of the commas :D
[03:17] <hilarie> I told it use the entire drive, and pointed it at the thumbdrive,
[03:18] <slak> KM0201: now now the entire internet is for my entertainment
[03:18] <RevSpecies116> xylonic: if you close the terminal after that, you may loose your borders. if that happens, just logout/restart and start Ubuntu Classic again and metacity will be used as default
[03:18] <xylonic> I typed metacity replace, its still processing
[03:18] <hilarie> Looking at the filesystem on my HD, it shows that everything is still there
[03:18] <ZykoticK9> xylonic, did you type "metacity --replace"?
[03:18] <xylonic> yes
[03:18] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: I worked around it by re-partitioning with MBR, giving it just the 4 partitions it will have ... I backed up the GPT and will restore it when done
[03:18] <RevSpecies116> note, xylonic the two - - hyphens, also
[03:18] <Skaperen> ZykoticK9: at the same sectors, of course
[03:19] <number9> Aginor: no worries, yet again this is the best IT help I have ever recieved. Thanks for doing what you are doing. I don't even think I modified any xfce settings besides maybe power profiles so this is amazing.
[03:19] <xylonic> I typed metacity --replace, its processing in the terminal still
[03:19] <xylonic> When I try to exit it says there is still a  process running
[03:19] <Meetyourmakers> Hi
[03:19] <RevSpecies116> OKies, xyloic :) if you mean the terminal is just sitting there, it's already done ;)
[03:20] <tradakad> Hi guys!
[03:20] <RevSpecies116> BUT if you close that terminal now, your borders will vanish
[03:20] <tradakad> oh my God -  there are 1488 people here :)
[03:20] <xylonic> Should I kill the process?
[03:20] <Meetyourmakers> The Flash-Player 10 on ubuntu on some site is freezing, can someone test that on him to see if it's freezing too
[03:20] <Meetyourmakers> gggg
[03:20] <RevSpecies116> If you do close that terminal, just restart Ubuntu in Classic again, and metacity will be the default without having to type that in again
[03:20] <slak> oh my god - and 1487 of them are retarded
[03:21] <tradakad> slak: :-)
[03:21] <Aginor> number9, you're welcome :)
[03:21] <slak> :)
[03:21] <RevSpecies116> You should be about to just 'x' out of it, xylonic
[03:21] <RevSpecies116> But don't worry about your borders if they vanish - they will come back next login
[03:21] <Meetyourmakers> enter pls here, http://www.livejasmin.com/freechat.php?performerid=AHotBarbie&tags=girl&hq=0, are ur flash freezing
[03:22] <munson> anyone else have 11.04 and no sound for the "Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)" and a fix?
[03:22] <tradakad> If anybody prefered to get a response in Russian I might help with translation
[03:22] <RevSpecies116> tradakad: I think there is a specific ubuntu-ru channel for just that
[03:22] <Meetyourmakers> sosi hui
[03:22] <Meetyourmakers> :D
[03:23] <ZykoticK9> !ru > tradakad
[03:23] <RevSpecies116> munson: that should be just able to be used
[03:23] <tradakad> RevSpecies116: yep you are right but I have already recieved a private question :)
[03:23] <Meetyourmakers> Sad that ubuntu dosen't support my integrated videocard
[03:23] <RevSpecies116> munson, several things - is that soundcard the only one on your sesytem, or do you have two soundcards?
[03:24] <munson> only one
[03:24] <RevSpecies116> OKies, you may have luck in the terminal, munson, with the 'alsamixer' command
[03:24] <Meetyourmakers> !ro >
[03:24] <munson> ya used it
[03:24] <tradakad> Meetyourmakers: do you test me :)
[03:24] <tradakad> Meetyourmakers: ? :)
[03:24] <Meetyourmakers> !ro > meetyourmakers
[03:24] <munson> made sure all was turned up
[03:24] <munson> and none muted
[03:24] <br4dock3r> can someone help me
[03:25] <RevSpecies116> Oh, did alsamixer detect it correctly?
[03:25] <Meetyourmakers> wanted to see if there is any ro channel
[03:25] <munson> yes
[03:25] <br4dock3r> No files or directories specified for scanning.
[03:25] <munson> card is intel...chipset is realtek

[03:25] <RevSpecies116> OKies, munson, do you have any type of speaker icon on the top panel?
[03:26] <munson> yes added it
[03:26] <tradakad> RevSpecies116: Yes sure but there are much more qualified people here
[03:26] <munson> its 100%
[03:27] <RevSpecies116> OKies, and if you left click it, do you have the 'sound preferences' window option
[03:27] <tradakad> It seems to be really hard to help people here...
[03:27] <tradakad> to much people
[03:27] <munson> lemme vnc into box real quick
[03:28] <munson> u can pm if u want
[03:28] <Meetyourmakers> with new software center u can forget about sudo apt-get install..
[03:28] <qin> Meetyourmakers: Why?
[03:28] <tradakad> Meetyourmakers: where are u from?
[03:28] <Meetyourmakers> with it i could find all necesary apps that i was seeking :D
[03:29] <RevSpecies116> Meetyourmakers: only if you want to. I personally will always be using aptitude [and will install it even if it is removed]
[03:29] <tradakad> Meetyourmakers: bull s..t - what's about ppa?
[03:31] <zoe> oi
[03:31] <tradakad> ok.. it seems not to be very interested here.. everybody bye!
[03:31] <zoe> i am brasilian
[03:31] <nit-wit> ter
[03:31] <wyvern666> i am running nano with "-c" to see the line numbers, but the numbers showed there are extrange.... from 20 jumps to 50 or things like that, can somebody explain me whats is going on?
[03:34] <Mr_Krol> hi
[03:35] <number9> Aginor: sorry I lost my connection while testing that. I still can't login. Any other ideas of files to rename?
[03:35] <Jordan_U> clarkm: It looks like you don't have any grub.cfg at all. How did you install Ubuntu? Is this a fresh install?
[03:35] <qin> wyvern666: Hm, what about vim?
[03:36] <antibodies> hi folks. i upgraded to 11.04 and now i get dumped to grub, like it lost my bootargs
[03:36] <antibodies> i can boot in manually via grub (since im here ;), but struggling to get my bootargs to get persisted between reboots
[03:36] <antibodies> and to make it more interseting, my linux is running in vmware
[03:36] <kanoe> hello everyone~
[03:36] <wyvern666> [qin] ok, but i cant explain what i am seeing in nano
[03:37] <wyvern666> i know i am novice, but that is stupid, i am going to use goto line
[03:37] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | antibodies
[03:37] <ESphynx> hey guys, what's the 32 bit package of OpenSSL?
[03:37] <kanoe> i come here for your help~
[03:38] <qin> wyvern666: I do not do nano, but it sounds like linewrap option, test with different terminal size.
[03:38] <antibodies> ok tanks ubottu
[03:38] <clarkm> Jordan_U: no, I just ssh'd in and did a do-release-upgrade and then it didn't boot anymore.
[03:39] <clarkm> Jordan_U: I just mounted the partition myself and did a new grub-install, so i'll see where that gets me
[03:40] <number9> Aginor: sorry for being so naggy but are you still there?
[03:40] <antibodies> my grub menu.lst root does point the right disk uuid at least... and menu.lst seems to have the right vmlinuz/initrd img
[03:43] <qin> antibodies: What version are you running?
[03:43] <kanoe> i just remove a package named xkb-data unexpected and then the os(10.04) can not start to X or to tty1~6. i am now in the X by livecd, should i copy the xkb-data from this temp os to the origin one
[03:43] <kanoe> i just removed a package named xkb-data unexpected and then the os(10.04) can not start to X or to tty1~6. i am now in the X by livecd, should i copy the xkb-data from this temp os to the origin one
[03:44] <clarkm> Jordan_U: so I guess at this point I'm looking for a way to reinstall grub on an lvm (with a separate /boot partition)... from a live cd. I haven't found a guide that combines all three of those elements, and I'm pretty hesitant to try anything drastic myself.
[03:44] <antibodies> 11.04 / grub .97
[03:44] <saitul> hy..
[03:44] <nit-wit> antibodies, you removed 1.99 and installed .97?
[03:44] <qin> antibodies: Anything against grub2?
[03:45] <antibodies> no, it's just what comes out when i do grub --version. yes it seems odd
[03:45] <nit-wit> I bootinfo | antibodies
[03:45] <Aginor> number9, yes
[03:45] <nit-wit> !! ootinfo | antibodies
[03:45] <qin> antibodies: I guess you kept upgrading from 8.10?
[03:45] <Aginor> number9, let me have a quick google
[03:46] <nit-wit> ! bootinfo | antibodies
[03:46] <kanoe> hello Aginor:
[03:46] <DANIEL-ALONE> i have dowlload vns viewer but its in deb format and i cant open it
[03:46] <DANIEL-ALONE> how can i open a deb format file?
[03:47] <nit-wit> DANIEL-ALONE, open?
[03:47] <ax> i screwed up my audio setup by trying to install alsa from source [to get this realtek audio card working]... but after uninstall i my earlier setup doesn't work, can i reconfigure the default ubuntu alsa setup?
[03:47] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: vns viewer?
[03:47] <aeon-ltd> DANIEL-ALONE: double click it, dpkg will handle the rest
[03:47] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: any type of vnc viewer, should be in the repositories, you shouldn't need to download a .deb file
[03:47] <DANIEL-ALONE> yes
[03:47] <kanoe> hello nit-wit
[03:47] <Aginor> number9, not finding anything else... So you can log in? XFCE loads? Then you get logged out?
[03:47] <nit-wit> hello
[03:47] <Aginor> kanoe, hello
[03:48] <kanoe> should i ask for help?
[03:48] <Aginor> !help | kanoe
[03:48] <antibodies> i did a series of upgrades, from 9 i believe, not 8. but yes it was chained
[03:48] <nit-wit> antibodies, can you run the script and pastebin the text?
[03:48] <kanoe> i just removed a package named xkb-data unexpected and then the os(10.04) can not start to X or to tty1~6. i am now in the X by livecd, should i copy the xkb-data from this temp os to the origin one
[03:49] <number9> no I don't know how to explain it. It looks like it begins to startup, definately not a password failure then a vterm pops up (looks like an x-restart type thing) then the login screen pops back up. The first time on a fresh boot takes a while but after the first fail it is only a second until I am presented with the login screen again
[03:49] <abhijain> hello everyone
[03:49] <DANIEL-ALONE> where is repositories
[03:49] <abhijain>  am unable to open blogspot.com on my lappy with chrome, ff and chromium browser can anybody resolve this issue
[03:49] <number9> Aginor: sorry forgot to tag you in that
[03:49] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: ubuntu software center?.. synaptic?
[03:49] <KM0201> !repositories
[03:49] <DANIEL-ALONE> ?
[03:49] <DANIEL-ALONE> where is repositories?
[03:50] <Aginor> number9, do you have an .xinitrc or similar thing in your ~?
[03:50] <KM0201> DANIEL-ALONE: you need to do some reading on using the package manager before proceeding any further...
[03:50] <number9> Aginor: Also I can login on a vterm, which is how I am talking to you now, and on vterm 8 I am running it as a new user, which allows me to google things but no luck so far.
[03:50] <nit-wit> DANIEL-ALONE, world wide
[03:50] <KM0201> !synaptic | DANIEL-ALONE
[03:50] <thewaz> what do you consider to be the best repositorys
[03:50] <Aginor> kanoe, you want to reinstall the package, not copy the files
[03:50] <thewaz> ??
[03:50] <abhijain> I am unable to open www.blogspot.com with any browser can any body solve this issue
[03:50] <KM0201> abhijain: i get 404'd there
[03:50] <thewaz> sux
[03:51] <Aginor> number9, there's always the drastic option of clobbering all of your dot-files and selectively restoring them
[03:51] <thewaz> what kind of browser are you using??
[03:51] <number9> Aginor: looks like no. just .xsession_errors
[03:51] <nit-wit> thewaz, there are all uniform repos for the database there basically all the same.
[03:51] <number9> Aginor: yeah I considered that, just that seems kind of drastic
[03:51] <kanoe> Aginor:thanks! should reinstall the package from the temp os to my origin os
[03:51] <Aginor> number9, your users owns it's ~ and has write access, yes?
[03:52] <abhijain> KM0201: YES 404
[03:52] <KM0201> abhijain: ok.. the problem isn't you.. .it's the website... i'm not sure why you think it's an ubuntu issue.
[03:52] <kanoe> Aginor:how can i do to reinstall it ?
[03:52] <Aginor> kanoe, boot it and login to a cli, then use "apt-get install <package>"  to restore X
[03:52] <abhijain> KM0201: thanx
[03:52] <number9> let me check, but I imagine if I didn't I wouldn't be able to login on a vterm?
[03:53] <number9> Aginor: forgot the tag again sorry.
[03:54] <KM0201> abhijain: it is weird though, cuz i just pinged the site, and the ping completes w/ 0 packet loss.. so it looks like that site, just has a "404" graphic up... rather thant he site actually 404ing
[03:54] <Aginor> number9, it's the lazy option, but it might be the fastest way to see if it's some settings or not. do "mkdir olddot; cp -r .??* olddot" in your ~ and it should make a backup of all of your dot-files satisfy yourself that it looks right, then do "rm -rf .??*" to delete them. Do NOT remove the question marks or you will potentially delete a lot.
[03:55] <number9> Aginor: yes I do own and have write access. What about the folder ~/cache/sessions? I just can boot a recovery console to, so it seems like something with sessions
[03:55] <Aginor> number9, try to get rid of that one too first then :D
[03:56] <number9> Aginor: Yeah I wanted to avoid that though because cp -r doesn't preserve permissions and other stuff unless the -a option is used and even then I don't trust it.
[03:56] <number9> Aginor: what is the command to restart x?
[03:57] <qin> number9: sudo service gdm stop
[03:58] <number9> qin: on xfce too? Also I think that just stops gnome desktop manager. I want to force x to restart
[03:58] <Aginor> number9, sudo service <g|k|x>dm restart I would assume
[03:58] <qin> number9: also rsync (or tar) to get permission proper
[03:59] <qin> number9: xdm?
[04:01] <number9> qin: Aginor: huh xdm doesn't work x tab completes only to x11-common.  Thanks agian
[04:03] <Aginor> number9, try "ps aux | grep dm " and see what shows up :D
[04:04] <atlambert> hihihi
[04:04] <atlambert> i return from earlier!

[04:10] <atlambert> anyon eelse have any ideas? :(
[04:10] <cheapie> th0r: I have an aging hard drive that sometimes returns read errors, and nothing will make it even try to read again until the computer is rebooted.
[04:10] <amin`> afew years back when I used windows and having to install sound video drivers and drivers for modem mouse or even keyboard there was sth called BOIS upadte which i did it sometimes ; I want to know if there is any way to upadte my bois without resorting to windows OS?
[04:11] <th0r> cheapie: that isn't a module or subsystem....sounds like a controller problem
[04:11] <cheapie> th0r: So is it possible to reset a PCI device without rebooting then?
[04:12] <qin> number9: sudo service gdm stop
[04:12] <ZykoticK9> amin`, my never ASUS motherboard actually support updating with a USB key from inside BIOS, no Windows required.
[04:12] <th0r> cheapie: not to my knowledge. You might try unmounting and remounting it, but if it is the main hard drive you will lose it as soon as you unmount it
[04:12] <qin> number9: yes on xubuntu
[04:12] <zaya> amin`: far as I know some BIOS will have a floppy update you can run, by now it's near obsolete as is the floppy drives.
[04:12] <cheapie> th0r: It's not my main hard drive. Ubuntu won't fit in 45 MB...
[04:12] <number9> qin: thanks. That first one is hold shift during boot to edit options?
[04:13] <th0r> cheapie: then try unmounting and remounting, might fix it without the reboot
[04:13] <Loshki> cheapie: you know you're on borrowed time with a hard drive that returns errors, right?
[04:13] <qin> number9: Yes, to get to grub menu. xubuntu uses gdm
[04:14] <cheapie> th0r: I'm not even accessing a mounted FS when this happens. Loshki: I've just been "playing" with it and sometimes knocking the head off track.
[04:14] <amin`> IN my case  IT says install the software and put pattery and plug the battery and connect to internet and run it
[04:14] <paul_> can anyone tell me the cli command to fully remove a program, config files and all
[04:15] <ZykoticK9> paul_, "sudo apt-get remove -purge foo" I believe, still won't remove any config files from your home directory
[04:15] <cheapie> th0r: OK... So is there a way to tell a drive to seek to a certain cylinder then?
[04:16] <Loshki> paul_: something like: sudo apt-get purge <package>....
[04:16] <th0r> cheapie: not that I know of
[04:16] <th0r> cheapie: I would reformat the drive, and if the read errors continue scrap the drive.
[04:16] <ZykoticK9> paul_, sorry, looks like you many want "sudo apt-get purge foo"
[04:17] <cheapie> th0r: If it helps, it's a Seagate ST-157A (CHS only, PIO 0) on an old VIA PCI controller.
[04:17] <paul_> Thanks guys, it didn't like the -purge, so I ran the command iwthout it
[04:17] <cheapie> th0r: Please wait while I look something up...
[04:18] <tripelb> TIL the mousewheel reacts to the area of the screen that it hovers over (what's the right technical way of saying this?) If I am over chrome tabs, it changes tabs. If I am over a document, it scrolls the document -changes pages. If I am in xchat, it scrolls the backscroll. Amazing.
[04:20] <number9> qin: thanks I had no idea.
[04:20] <qin> numique: Neither me.
[04:20] <cheapie> th0r: The documentation I have been looking for has been vaporized. Oh well.
[04:21] <syockit> In aptitude, when I view a package's description, I get to see what other packages depend on it. The problem is, most of the time I'm only interested in seeing the installed ones. How do I filter?
[04:27] <nmesis> i need help on my netbook
[04:28] <clarkm> Jordan_U: I got it fixed. :) Took a lot of manual configuration, but I just needed a quick fix to bootstrap it up
[04:28] <nmesis> after i installed 10.04 on my netbook it cant detect my ethernet connection
[04:30] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, meaning that it isn't showing your ethernet card as an option at all, or that you can't get a connection with the one that is present
[04:30] <nmesis> the second
[04:31] <nmesis> but it can detect the wi fi of my neighbhor
[04:31] <noisewaterphd> what is the output of ifconfig
[04:32] <Vustom> Why won't Warsow work with a launcher? I have the command as /home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow/warsow.i386, but it doesn't work, if I go and open warsow.i386 in a folder it works just fine..
[04:32] <KM0201> why didy ou install 10.04?
[04:32] <cores_> does any one have any info on lfs?
[04:32] <nmesis> its the best version of ubuntu for me
[04:33] <KM0201> ... obviously..lol
[04:33] <jiohdi> Vustom, maybe set the $PATH variable
[04:33] <bazhang> cores_, try #lfs
[04:33] <Vustom> jiohdi Huh..?
[04:33] <noisewaterphd> i know quite a few people who much prefer 10.04 netbook to 10.10+
[04:34] <jiohdi> Vustom, $PATH tells the system where to find binaries to run
[04:34] <nmesis> i tried 11.04 on my desktop
[04:34] <nmesis> but i think its heavy
[04:34] <noisewaterphd> im sticking with 10.10
[04:34] <Vustom> jiohdi What do I put in the command then, so the launcher works?
[04:34] <Vustom> jiohdi I'm new to this. C:
[04:35] <KM0201> noisecontrol: dnno, i use 10.10 (and 11.04 for that matter) quite successfully on a netbook... i guess i could see if it was "april 2010" when you installed it, but the next LTS will be out in less than a year.. I'd install the current version, or even 10.10.. keep it current until the LTS comes up, then upgrade to the LTS and stay there if you like at that point
[04:35] <jiohdi> Vustom, I am not 100% sure, however when you tell the $PATH were to find the binaries it should be able to run whats at that path location.
[04:35] <noisewaterphd> next time i bother to upgrade im probably going with a mint xfce
[04:35] <Vustom> jiohdi I'm confused. :c
[04:35] <bencc> is there a local mail address that default to junk?
[04:35] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, PATH doesn't really have anything to do with a Launcher
[04:36] <nmesis> is there available drivers for ethernet for linux
[04:36] <noisecontrol> :)
[04:36] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, it sounds like it's being recognized fine
[04:36] <bencc> email address like /dev/null
[04:37] <nmesis> they only offer M$ drivers in their website
[04:37] <ZykoticK9> nmesis, probably 99% of ethernet cards should work OOTB (much lower for wireless ;)
[04:37] <noisewaterphd> if it's showing up in your network connections you need to troubleshoot your connection not your card
[04:37]  * Vustom is confused.
[04:37] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, again, what is the output of ifconfig
[04:37] <bazhang> nmesis, lspci output in paste.ubuntu.com
[04:37] <nmesis> w8 ill copy
[04:37] <noisecontrol> man ls -la
[04:37] <bazhang> nmesis, also output of ifconfig
[04:37] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, ALT+F2 then type in your full path to warsow.i386.  Does it work?
[04:37]  * KM0201 waits..
[04:38] <bazhang> nmesis, dont paste here use paste.ubuntu.com
[04:38] <Bops> I was trying to have a new/default apache2 install. I used apt-get to purge apache2, then manually deleted /etc/apache2/. I figured when I called apt-get install, it would reinstall the configuration files. It doesn't, and apache2 won't start without the config files. I googled some more and found instructions that said to remove apache22-common, but the removal is interrupted, for the same reasons as the last post here: http://ubuntuf
[04:38] <jiohdi> Vustom, one way to test if I am right is to take the folder and put it into something already $PATH defined such as /etc
[04:38] <Vustom> Zyko, no, the screen blinks white for about a millisecond then nothing happens..
[04:38] <bazhang> Vustom, please tab complete people's nicknames or they wont see your response
[04:39] <bazhang> Vustom, zyko<tab>
[04:39] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, if you cant alt+f2 then a launcher won't work either - are you sure that is the correct binary?
[04:40] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: I'll check.
[04:40] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, open a terminal - and type in the full path to the warsow.i386 - do you get any error output?
[04:40] <nmesis> i cannot paste it there i use my desktop to chat here
[04:40] <Bops> so my question is, what can I do to get a new apache2 install, which also installs the config files like the first time?
[04:41] <bazhang> nmesis, then write it down and copy to paste.ubuntu.com
[04:41] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/614794/
[04:41] <nmesis> yes im doing it now XD
[04:41] <ZykoticK9> Bops, you might want to try the --reinstall option to apt-get
[04:42] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, "Error: Error during initialization: Could not find any shaders!" this is NOT a bash/PATH issue - something else is wrong here
[04:42] <obengdako> Bops use synaptic completely remove apache2 and it would also remove configuration files
[04:42] <Bops> ZykoticK9: no luck :)
[04:42] <ZykoticK9> Bops, sorry, i have no ideas.  Good luck.
[04:42] <Bops> obengdako: is there any command-line version? This is a server.
[04:42] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: If I go to the file path and double click it the application works just fine..
[04:43] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, sorry - I have no idea.
[04:43] <noisewaterphd> Bops, you should be able to just get a default httpd.conf file example online somewhere
[04:43] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: I had something similar to this happen when I tried created a launcher for a Java app, had to put java -jar in front of the command.
[04:43] <Didiaoer> Bops you can remove the apache2 and then install it
[04:43] <obengdako> Bops apt-get purge packagename
[04:43] <Bops> noisecontrol: it's not just the conf file, it's the envvars...that's just to start, who knows what else would be missing
[04:44] <Bops> obengdako: I tried that already. I think the problem is that apache2 has other subpackages that DON'T get removed, and one of them has the config files. It could be apache22-common, but I can't remove it.
[04:44] <obengdako> Bops then apt-get install packagename
[04:44] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, someone with the same error - says it's related to "working directory" at http://portableapps.com/node/11580
[04:45] <noisecontrol> bops - did you look for a lamp package - might save you some headaches
[04:45] <Didiaoer> cd /etc/httpd/ and rm -rf *
[04:45] <Bops> obengdako: did that too. I tried googling for a solution, this question comes up in : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471003  and I tried all the suggestions.
[04:46] <noisecontrol> bops - the problem is too much information - look for a lamp package - linux apache mysql php
[04:46] <Bops> noisecontrol: I'd rather fix the apt-get install if possible :) having a separate, non-repository install of Apache2 cause I can't figure it out seems a messy solution.
[04:46] <ZykoticK9> Vustom from a terminal try "cd /PATH/TO/Warsaw && ./warsaw.i3786"
[04:47] <noisecontrol> lamp = most web aps = the easier softer way
[04:47] <Bops> I guess I can fall back to that
[04:48] <noisecontrol> saves doing mysql and php configurations and cross file identification
[04:49] <obengdako> Bops so your problem: unable to reinstall apache, if persists see if aptitude can help but apart from that i'm not sure what else to do and i do believe you are root and have the right permissions set for the configs all the best
[04:49] <noisecontrol> you might also try "amp" or "amp stack" in your pkg mgr search
[04:49] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/614795/
[04:49] <ZykoticK9> Bops, you could try using tasksel to uninstall/reinstall lamp???
[04:49] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: Eh, made a typo.
[04:49] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, ok, cause that link didn't work ;)
[04:49] <nmesis> heres the ifconfig
[04:49] <nmesis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/614796/
[04:50] <bazhang> nmesis, now lspci please
[04:50] <noisecontrol> :)
[04:50] <obengdako> and who says a server cant have a gui
[04:51] <ZykoticK9> noisecontrol, there isn't a lamp package, but it's in tasksel
[04:51] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: http://paste.ubuntu.com/614798/
[04:51] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, try "cd /home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games && ./warsow.1386"
[04:51] <corretico_> hello
[04:51] <noisecontrol> ZykoticK9, you mean they are preloading it now. Wow. Headaches solved.
[04:51] <nmesis> bazhang, can i just copy ethernet controller and network controller?
[04:51] <obengdako> Bops tasksel in teminal
[04:52] <bazhang> nmesis, yes please
[04:52] <Bops> obengdako: will check it out ,tha nks
[04:52] <blake_> i need help how to use teminal
[04:52] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: Same thing.
[04:52] <bazhang> blake_, help doing what
[04:52] <blake_> i want to play lord of the rings online but idk how to download
[04:52] <noisecontrol> Why not just use the admin task manager in the control panel and hit the checkboxes?
[04:53] <bazhang> blake_, what does that have to with terminal
[04:53] <blake_> lol
[04:53] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, the full path is wrong then... you need to change to the directory with the warsaw.i386 binary where is it located?
[04:54] <CrustyBarnacle> !classic
[04:54] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, according to your first post it should be "cd /home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow && ./warsow.i386"
[04:54] <obengdako> !x
[04:55] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: This location may work, /media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow/warsow.i386
[04:55] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, so try "cd /media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow && ./warsow.i386"
[04:55] <nmesis> bazhang here is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/614799/
[04:55] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: cd /media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow && ./warsow.i386 Worked! Thanks. C:
[04:56] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, so you can try putting that in a launcher and see if it works - it might now :|
[04:56] <ZykoticK9> s/now/not
[04:57] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: Failed to execute child process "cd" (No such file or directory) D:
[04:58] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, try "gnome-terminal -e cd /media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow && ./warsow.i386"
[04:58] <jiohdi> ZykoticK9, if you have to change directory to make it work, why is that not a path problem?
[04:58] <corretico_> i need some help. i have problems with my wifi card and ubuntu 11
[04:58] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: There was an error creating the child process for this terminal
[04:59] <corretico_> i'm using a dell latitude d620
[04:59] <ZykoticK9> jiohdi, it's an issue with the binary requiring to be launched inside that directory, due to some temporary file or something...
[04:59] <CrustyBarnacle> corretico: What's the problem?
[04:59] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, sorry - I'm not surprised it's not working.  I've got nothing more.  Good luck.
[04:59] <jiohdi> ZykoticK9, if you put the whole folder into something like /etc which is already on the path list, why would that not work?
[04:59] <Vustom> If I try '/media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow && ./warsow.i386'
[04:59] <Vustom> I get "Failed to execute child process "/media/135324db-edaa-491f-90db-9d0f4fbd6f50/home/vustom/Desktop/Vustom/Jolicloud/Games/warsow" (Permission denied)"
[05:00] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, you'd need a cd before the /media/...
[05:00] <paul_> is there a wildcard like * that outputs randomly instaed of in alphabetical order?
[05:00] <bazhang> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/680239/comments/8 nmesis
[05:01] <ZykoticK9> paul_, sort has a -R (random) switch?
[05:01] <Fedorageek> Hi, how do I change Gedit settings?
[05:02] <Fedorageek> ie tab space specifically?
[05:02] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: The desktop launcher works but not the panel icon, but that's okay. C:
[05:02] <nmesis> bazhang, ERROR: Module atlic does not exist in /proc/modules
[05:02] <Vustom> ZykoticK9: Thanks for your help by the way. ^_^
[05:02] <ZykoticK9> paul_, appears to work "OLDCOMMAND | sort -R"
[05:02] <paul_> ZykoticK9: hmmm... let me experiemnt a bit
[05:02] <ZykoticK9> Vustom, glad to help - sorry I don't have an answer :(
[05:02] <astropirate> Anyone here get Gnome3/Gnome-shell to work on ubuntu 11.04 yet?
[05:03] <astropirate> last i tried it broke my system
[05:03] <jiohdi> astropirate, I did for a while... but then I did an update and reboot and it broke
[05:03] <bazhang> astropirate, its an unsupported PPA talk to the maintainer
[05:03] <jiohdi> astropirate, I kept getting error messages that something was trying to overwrite something else
[05:04] <nmesis> bazhang the commands gives me error
[05:04] <astropirate> hmm I'm on fedora, but Ubuntu has better drivers for my graphics cards and such so I would love to come back I just cant stand Unity
[05:04] <tx0105> i tried to use KDE in vanilla Ubuntu before
[05:04] <tx0105> never again will I try that sort of thing
[05:04] <astropirate> tx0105, lol same
[05:04] <bazhang> astropirate, then choose classic from the login menu
[05:04] <jiohdi> astropirate, you can use gnome classic
[05:05] <tx0105> I'd recommend just using Fedora 15
[05:05] <astropirate> Did i forget to mention that I love gnome-shell?
[05:05] <jamiewan> astropirate: u can sewlect gnome classic view at login window
[05:05] <jiohdi> or xfce or lxde or many others
[05:05] <tx0105> trust me when I say Gnome 3 isn't worth the hassle of ruining your Ubuntu install
[05:05] <paul_> ZykoticK9: so i tried mplayer * |sort -R and it is playing in alphabetical order still
[05:06] <astropirate> tx0105, i'm running it on fefora 15 right now and have been since about a month or so ago. Its awesome. I don't know how else to put it in words. Best UI i have seen for desktop
[05:06] <ipv6hermit> hello everyone,  I just booted my xubuntu partiton, I logged in and all the windows I opened opened but without the window title and without the window controls (maximze, close)  then I tried executing xfce-session and it brought the window controls and title bar back, then I restarted the computer, now I try to log into xfce but but it boots me back out to the login prompt
[05:06] <poison> there is no /etc/inittab
[05:06] <jiohdi> astropirate, after gnome3 broke everything I installed cairo-dock and awn and now both of them are my launchers.. .awn on the left and cairo on the bottom and there is no sign of gnome or unity
[05:06] <KM0201> tx0105: when gnome 3 is actually properly implemented into ubuntu, it will be fine.. and i don't think fedora 15 has gnome 3 yet either (at least the screenshots look like 2.x)
[05:06] <bazhang> !upstart > poison
[05:07] <astropirate> KM0201, fedora 15 indeed does have gnome3
[05:07] <tx0105> KN0201 it's definately Gnome 3 in Fedora 15
[05:07] <KM0201> astropirate: hmm, screenshots i saw looked like 2x
[05:07] <ZykoticK9> paul_, the "mplayer *" isn't going to be affected by piping to sort -R -- sorry I thought you where doing text processing.
[05:07] <astropirate> KM0201, must have been a f14 screenshot
[05:07] <CooKieMonster> what should i get to watch quick time video on apple site
[05:07] <nmesis> nope its gnome 3
[05:07] <KM0201> hmm
[05:07] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, you need to wget it
[05:07] <nmesis> like opensuse 11.4 they use gnome 3 too
[05:07] <paul_> ZykotcK9: ok thanks, there is no obvious solution to my problem? I'm just tryng to randomize my musicsss....
[05:08] <KM0201> nmesis: i knew that
[05:08] <CooKieMonster> wget what
[05:08] <ipv6hermit> I'm using 11.04
[05:08] <bazhang> !wget > CooKieMonster
[05:08] <ipv6hermit> which I like a lot less than 9.10
[05:08] <KM0201> ipv6hermit: what happened, you lost your terminal?
[05:08] <KM0201> *panel... sorry
[05:08] <ipv6hermit> I can't log into my xfce desktop
[05:08] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, you can't watch on their site, you need to wget it, ie download it
[05:08] <KM0201> ipv6hermit: oh.. i had that problem to for some weird reason.. off to Lubuntu i went...lol
[05:08] <ipv6hermit> now I'm just using terminal
[05:09] <CooKieMonster> but i dont have any quicktime player
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> just using irssi and elinks
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> :(
[05:09] <CrustyBarnacle> ipv6hermit: Can you log into Ubuntu Classic?
[05:09] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, you dont need it. mplayer can play it fine. just download it with wget
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> I'm using ubuntu
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> I'm using xubuntu
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> it's the only OS installed on this laptop
[05:09] <ipv6hermit> I've used xubuntu 9.10 for a long time without any issues like these
[05:09] <CrustyBarnacle> !classic | ipv6hermit
[05:10] <tx0105> i think the Opensuse Gnome 3 is a more of a beta
[05:10] <KM0201> CrustyBarnacle: did you read what he said? he's using xubuntu.. ie.. xfce.. he doesn't have unity
[05:10] <tx0105> I was going to ask...is anybody having wierd video/display problems with 11.04?
[05:11] <Omega> tx0105: Not me, probably a driver issue.
[05:11] <tx0105> on my laptop with an Intel video card...Unity 3D is unusable..half the time my computer drops to a low resolution
[05:11] <LibreMan> tx0105: what kind of problems? I do ...
[05:11] <tx0105> It was never an issue prior to 11.04
[05:11] <ipv6hermit> ubottu: I don't have that option
[05:11] <tx0105> either it's a kernal issue or something specific to Ubuntu
[05:12] <CrustyBarnacle> !xubuntu | ipv6hermit
[05:12] <tx0105> Libreman all sorts of stuff...the resolution sometimes gets dropped to 1024x768 and i can't change it back...sometimes my screen freezes where only half the screen is usable and it locks up
[05:13] <CooKieMonster> is there any quicktime player for ubuntu ? i can't download it
[05:13] <Omega> ipv6hermit: I'd try apt-get --reinstall install xubuntu-desktop
[05:13] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, no. download the trailer.
[05:13] <tx0105> the latest intel drivers don't seem to help
[05:13] <LibreMan> tx0105: that's much more severe than what I have ... it often shows some garbage on the screen and I need to move the window o clear it up and such stuff ... so probably a different problem
[05:13] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, you can if you use wget.
[05:14] <nmesis> i cant see any solution to my prob
[05:14] <pksadiq> !find quicktime
[05:14] <tx0105> libreman ya it's pretty bad...Unity 2D seems to work ok...I'm installing Kubuntu 11.04 to see if I get the same issues
[05:15] <vibhav> hi
[05:16] <LibreMan> tx0105: yeah sure ... try kubuntu and see if it works better
[05:19] <jiohdi> CooKieMonster, vlc plays mov files
[05:21] <LuckySMack> i just installed natty on my hp laptop, and im unable to get my wifi to work. all the posts i found were that the wireless was on but was unable to pick up a wifi signal. i believe ny actual wireless is disabled as the wifi button is always red and does not turn on. it just shows theres no wireless. im on an HP dv7. anyone familiar with the issue on this laptop?
[05:21] <bullgard4> My OO.o embedded HSQLDB contains a file /database/script with a line "CREATE SCHEMA PUBLIC AUTHORIZATION DBA". What does »DBA« stand for?
[05:22] <CooKieMonster> do those apple trailer comes with embeding code ?
[05:23] <ZykoticK9> bullgard4, typically DBA stands for Data Base Administrator

[05:28] <jbangert> Good evening, is there any way to make bash record the endtime of an already running job? I started a long running job on our compute machine and  it has not finished yet. The job is running in the background of my interactive session and I will leave my workstation now. Is there any way for bash to record when the job ended
[05:32] <dorkmafia> so i'm thinking of installing ubuntu … how big is the install footprint?
[05:32] <bazhang> !requirements > dorkmafia
[05:33] <Loshki> jbangert: I don't know of one. As a workaround, write a script which runs date; ps -ax | egrep <job>; sleep 60; and logs to a file. You'll be able to see from the logfile when the job stops running.
[05:33] <dorkmafia> also is it easy to triple boot win7, osx and ubuntu?
[05:33] <dorkmafia> :)
[05:33] <dorkmafia> thanks ubottu
[05:33] <dorkmafia> and bazhang
[05:33] <FloodBot1> dorkmafia: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:33] <KM0201> dorkmafia: triple booting is easy if you're using a Mac, i would think... using a PC... i doubt it
[05:34] <jbangert> Loshki: thanks
[05:34] <dorkmafia> KM0201 well i have a pc with win7 installed I haven't set up my hackintosh partition yet i remember reading somewhere that it's possible to triple boot all three and that it basically has a small version of some unix flavor that it boots in to
[05:35] <dorkmafia> that's what i think the chameleon boot loader is :)
[05:35] <KM0201> dorkmafia: dunno.
[05:35] <intrader> Anyone, how is the upgrade to 11.04  from 10.10 fairing? Any reports on trouble?
[05:36] <tensorpudding> some people have had trouble, most people that haven't had trouble, haven't reported
[05:36] <KM0201> intrader: some people have lots of problems... some have none..
[05:36] <jbangert> intrader: My relatively old and heavily customized laptop had trouble with Unity, but everything else is great
[05:36] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: So the grantee (= the owndnership) is Data Base Administrator. What does this semantically mean?
[05:36] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: So the grantee (= the ownership) is Data Base Administrator. What does this semantically mean?
[05:36] <ZykoticK9> bullgard4, i have no idea, sorry.
[05:37] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: You have been of help to me, anyway. --  Thank you.
[05:37] <intrader> KM0201, jbangert: tranks - I will wait as I had a lot of trouble going from 9.04 to 10.10 (full reinstall)
[05:37] <KM0201> intrader: well, thats becasue upgrading directly from 9.04 to 10.10, is not supported, no wonder you had problems
[05:38] <intrader> KM0201: I went first to 10.04 then attempted upgrade - lots of X problems.
[05:39] <KM0201> intrader: ok, if you went 9.04 to 10.04, thats not supported either.
[05:39] <KM0201> 9.04-9.10-10.04-10.10-11.04
[05:39] <intrader> KM0201, thanks for info - I will wait a few months
[05:40] <KM0201> intrader: if you wanna wait, thats fine, but you can't blame ubuntu when you don't follow proper upgrade procedures
[05:40] <pishguy> schmidtm: ping
[05:40] <atlambert> question: whatever happened to ubuntu netbook remix as a separate download? did they just make its UI an option w/ vanilla ubuntu?
[05:41] <intrader> KM0201: thanks
[05:41] <KM0201> atlambert: ubuntu netbook remix... isn't really needed anymore, because Ubuntu's new Unity interface, is very similar to UNR...
[05:41] <pishguy> Hi all, why i cant use this command into rnd.sh: number=$[ $RANDOM % 3 ]
[05:42] <tensorpudding> pishguy: syntax is wrong? do you have the right hashbang?
[05:42] <jbangert> intrader: What I do, is that I have my home on a separate file system and I usually just reinstall. I have a script in my home that gets me my favorite programs
[05:42] <skrip> Hello , have a problem with installing VMplayer : I Download it from the Official Site and then go to command line and does this commands:  chmod 755 ./Downloads/VMware-Player-3.1.4-385536.i386.bundle   and then sudo ./Downloads/VMware-VIX-1.10.3-368992.i386.bundle     but i am getting a message 10: Syntax error: newline unexpected whath goes wrong ?

[05:43] <pheonix208> any ideas?
[05:43] <PalinBachman2012> skrip: sometimes you have to type sudo sh ./blahblah
[05:43] <intrader> jbangert: can you point me to the script?
[05:44] <PalinBachman2012> also, ussually, its chmod +x if you get an error about execution
[05:44] <skrip> the same error :/
[05:44] <PalinBachman2012> im sorry, thats what i would try first, sorry cant help further
[05:45] <skrip> ok thanks anyway. Someone else knows ? :)
[05:46] <pheonix208> skrip, whats the problem?
[05:46] <nmesis> i cant still find any solution
[05:46] <skrip> look up i wrote it.
[05:47] <pheonix208> i just joined in
[05:47] <noisewaterphd> skrip, cd into the directory and do a sudo sh VMwareblahblah.bundle
[05:47] <pheonix208> i don't have the logs
[05:47] <PalinBachman2012> hmm, i think you should cd into the dir, and then sudo ./VM*
[05:47] <PalinBachman2012> or sudo sh
[05:47] <nmesis> help me connect to ethernet
[05:47] <PalinBachman2012> you only use ./ when you are in the same dir as the executable
[05:47] <john_rambo> How to remove pppoe configuration & restore network manager ?
[05:47] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, did you ever pastebin your logs we asked for
[05:47] <skrip> i am in that directory
[05:48] <pheonix208> nmesis: dhcp?
[05:48] <nmesis> yes
[05:48] <pheonix208> sudo dhclient eth0
[05:48] <noisewaterphd> skrip, awesome now run the sh command as sudo
[05:48] <pheonix208> where eth0 = the ethernet card
[05:48] <nmesis> i tried that no device found
[05:48] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, link again please, i left for a while
[05:48] <pheonix208> what's the output of ifconfig -a
[05:49] <Shortstraw8> So I'm new to ubuntu and when i try to burn a cd in brasero it burns goes through everything like it burns but when I try to play the cd it won't work if I put it back in my computer it just says track 1 and there is nothing. Sorry for the very newb question but I'm lost.
[05:49] <noisewaterphd> nmesis, i though you said that it did have the device
[05:49] <nmesis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/614796/
[05:49] <nmesis> yes
[05:50] <skrip> get the same error
[05:50] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: oddly, your ethernet card or whatever is not being recognized
[05:50] <nmesis> how can i make it recognized
[05:50] <PalinBachman2012> i say oddly, cause thats not ussually a problem anymore
[05:50] <pheonix208> nmesis: do you have a wireless network?
[05:50] <nmesis> i dont have
[05:51] <noisewaterphd> skrip, delete the download, download it again in it's entirety. Do not set any permissions or anything, just unpack it and then run the aforementioned commands
[05:51] <nmesis> PalinBachman2012 so whats the problem?
[05:52] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, what type of files are you dragging into brasero to create the audio CD
[05:52] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: probably no drivers are being loaded
[05:52] <nmesis> how to check the installed drivers
[05:53] <nmesis> i shoukd check
[05:54] <Shortstraw8> just mp3 file from rhythmbox
[05:54] <nmesis> cant find any solutions in internet
[05:55] <nmesis> i run the ommand sudo dhclient eth0
[05:55] <nmesis> the result is
[05:56] <nmesis> SIOCSIFADDR: no such device
[05:56] <atlee> i have a problem
[05:57] <atlee> i installed kde-desktop and when i log out and switch back to gnome, my unity interface is gone?
[05:57] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: do lshw and look for soemthing that says 'Ethernet Controller' or ethernet something, and see if you can look up the device
[05:57] <th0r> nmesis: what does ifconfig say....does it show eth0?
[05:57] <PalinBachman2012> you do have a lan cable plugged in, right
[05:57] <PalinBachman2012> well that wouldnt matter yet
[05:58] <nmesis> lshw
[05:58] <nmesis> yes
[06:00] <nmesis> Pal
[06:00] <nmesis> PalinBachman2012 i saw ehternet conroller
[06:01] <nmesis> configurationL latency = 0
[06:05] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: does the configuration line say anywhere, driver= something, and what is the product:
[06:06] <pishguy> tensorpudding: i can use this command out of .sh no problem: number=$[ $RANDOM % 3 ]
[06:06] <nmesis> i cant see driver=
[06:07] <pishguy> tensorpudding: http://paste.ubuntu.com/614029/
[06:07] <nmesis> product: AR8152 v2.0 Fast ethernet
[06:07] <Fezzler> Can I upgrade Lucid to 11.04?
[06:08] <tensorpudding> pishguy: it's probably a bashism
[06:08] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: ok there is a driver for that
[06:08] <PalinBachman2012> hang on
[06:08] <nmesis> okey2
[06:08] <tensorpudding> pishguy: yeah, it's a bashism
[06:08] <Fezzler> I ran Upgrade Manager and it did not provide me the option.
[06:08] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, brasero uses gstreamer for codec support, make sure it is installed: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:08] <IdleOne> Fezzler: not directly
[06:08] <pishguy> tensorpudding: how to use that into bash script?
[06:08] <IdleOne> !upgrade > Fezzler
[06:09] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, did brasero seem to complete the transcoding phase successfully?
[06:09] <tensorpudding> pishguy: the shell that's used is specified by the hashbang
[06:09] <tensorpudding> pishguy: you need it to be the path to bash, not to sh
[06:09] <tensorpudding> pishguy: usually, /bin/bash, or /usr/bin/env bash
[06:10] <pishguy> tensorpudding: :)
[06:11] <pishguy> tensorpudding: Other quastion: how to change ubuntu login theme. python-gdm2setup can not .
[06:12] <tensorpudding> pishguy: uh, no idea
[06:12] <tensorpudding> pishguy: they've changed it at some point, i don't know it anymore
[06:12] <Shortstraw8> yeah disc says successful.
[06:13] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: you can try  sudo rmmod atl1c  and then sudo modprobe atl1c
[06:13] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, not burning, just the transcoding phase where it converts the mp3 to .wav for audio disc burning
[06:14] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: and if that doesnt work you will have to install compat wireless, which has a working driver until it gets fixed in the kernel
[06:14] <PalinBachman2012> strangely enough, that ethernet hardware is rated Ubuntu Partner COmpatable or such :)
[06:14] <LAcan> How do I tell Ubuntu Software Centre to allow installation packages from "not authenticated soruces"?
[06:14] <nmesis> ERROR: modile atlic does not exist in /proc/modules
[06:14] <pishguy> tensorpudding: how to running any software in boot
[06:15] <pishguy> tensorpudding: i want to play sound in ubuntu boot before login gnome
[06:15] <Shortstraw8> says unable to locate gstreamer package
[06:15] <noisewaterphd> LAcan, ubuntu software center - Edit > Software Sources
[06:15] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, so they aren't getting converted
[06:15] <LAcan> noisecontrol, ya i tried that but there is no option...?
[06:15] <tensorpudding> pishguy: it's probably possible, using some kind of script in startup, but that's a complicated and annoying thing to set up
[06:16] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, did you instal the restricted extras package
[06:16] <noisewaterphd> LAcan, do you mean sources for which you don't have keys
[06:17] <nmesis> i need to update so i can have internet connection but how
[06:17] <noisewaterphd> LAcan, if so I'm not sure off the top of my head
[06:17] <LAcan> noisecontrol, i guess so? I just get a pop-up whenever i try to install ettercap...
[06:17] <noisewaterphd> LAcan, try just installing with apt-get on the cli
[06:18] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: then follow the instructions on http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9446984&postcount=6
[06:18] <Shortstraw8> yeah its installing
[06:18] <noisewaterphd> LAcan, seems like you get more options that way as far as bypassing keys
[06:18] <noisewaterphd> Shortstraw8, so that package supplies the libs brasero needs to make that conversion process possible
[06:19] <nmesis> ok thanks
[06:19] <masterk3n> how do i print the processes and cpu/memory usage?
[06:19] <bausAnon> hello everyone hows it goin?
[06:19] <nmesis> is it wireless?
[06:20] <jon8> hey all
[06:20] <PalinBachman2012> nmesis: no, its got the ethernet drivers too for some reason but if you have probs just ask in here i will be afk
[06:20] <nmesis> ok2
[06:20] <PalinBachman2012> someone will be able to walk you thru it
[06:20] <nmesis> thanks
[06:20] <PalinBachman2012> np
[06:22] <bausAnon> does anyone know of any keyboard shortcut's to save an thumbnail full-size without having to open the picture?
[06:24] <Wi1d> .fs'
[06:25] <bausAnon> does anyone know?
[06:27] <LAcan> noisecontrol, I used Synaptic instead and it allows me to ignore the warning, fyi.
[06:28] <bausAnon> c'mon somebody's gotta know
[06:28] <srgz> hi, I installed gnome-shell and now at the login when it prompts me to choose the session, I have to choose "User defined session" to get to gnome-shell instead of picking "Gnome 3" or "Gnome Shell". Is there any way of changing this?
[06:30] <sklorpion> i got this strange problem, if i start conky it loookls normally as part of desktop, but i added it to strat automaticly with gnome
[06:30] <Shortstraw8> Thanks noisewater worked fine. Must have lost that in the upgrade somehow.
[06:31] <sklorpion> so when its opend by gnome it is in strange window that i cant move, change or anything but looks like normaln window, and it's always on top
[06:36] <kLown> Is there a way to watch netflix movies on ubuntu?  (11.04)
[06:37] <tonysan> How do I view my current 10.10 desktop remotely? or how do I setup something wo work in a terminal? the vncserver crashes everytime I connected to it
[06:37] <th0r> tonysan: you might look at either X-forwarding via ssh or NX
[06:38] <ZykoticK9> tonysan, ssh FTW ;)
[06:38] <tonysan> th0r: I am using windows now, does that work under windows?
[06:38] <lily_> hola buenas noches
[06:38] <th0r> tonysan: you can get an NX client for windows, and you can use cygwin to do X-forwarding
[06:39] <tonysan> th0r: setting up cygwin is really a pain in the ass (is it just me or everyone?)
[06:39] <yagoo> ?\
[06:39] <yagoo> tonysan, #cygwin
[06:39] <th0r> tonysan: you might then want to take a look at NX
[06:40] <kLown> Is there a way to watch netflix movies on ubuntu?  (11.04)
[06:40] <tonysan> th0r: I am downloading a NX client, is there aything need to setup in the server side?
[06:40] <yagoo> tonysan, the 3 downloads rpms/debs from nomachine.com is free and works out of the box
[06:40] <th0r> tonysan: yes, there is an NX server for linux. I would opt for the free version from the company, not the open source one in the repos....never did get that to work
[06:41] <tonysan> th0r: ok, got it
[06:41]  * yagoo says sshserver needs to be installed before nx.. nx is tunneled with nomachine's nx
[06:42] <tonysan> yagoo: is that .debs under the category of NX Free Edition for Linux
[06:42] <tonysan> ?
[06:42] <yagoo> tonysan, there's deb files
[06:43] <yagoo> tonysan, dpkg -i <1.deb> <2.deb> <3.deb> .. or if they only deb files in folder-> dpkg -i *deb
[06:44] <yagoo> no need to setup firewall if its already allowing port 22 in.. NX is tunnelled in ssh
[06:44] <tonysan> now downloading NX server .deb
[06:45] <yagoo> it needs the 3 debs
[06:45] <tonysan> yagoo: all of them?
[06:46] <tonysan> yagoo: client, node, and the server?

[06:47] <A_J> How do i Install a prgram from a tar
[06:48] <fbdystang> Hi all :), how do I change the group and permissions of folders on an NTFS drive? Any help is appreciated
[06:48] <bullgard4> !install | A_J
[06:49] <ZykoticK9> A_J, are you sure there isn't a DEB available?  TAR is just an archive, could have anything inside it.
[06:49] <ZykoticK9> A_J, it's most likely source code however
[06:49] <A_J> ZykoticK9,  no .deb
[06:49] <A_J> bullgard4,  where have u linked me..?
[06:49]  * yagoo says wiki tar is good
[06:49] <ZykoticK9> A_J, and no PPAs?
[06:50] <A_J> nop ZykoticK9 just .taz.gz
[06:50] <yagoo> If one can't do it by command shell use a graphical.. like ark or something :)
[06:50] <ZykoticK9> A_J, you may want to use checkinstall that will use a more "Ubuntu" friendly install of the source code
[06:51] <ZykoticK9> !checkinstall
[06:53] <fredy> hi all can anyone help to install the medibuntu PPA ?
[06:54] <A_J> ZykoticK9, look here : http://pastebin.com/nM8XL5v6
[06:54] <fredy> i got dvd encrypted and i can not play it =(
[06:55] <ZykoticK9> A_J, you don't use checkinstall with that tar.gz!
[06:55] <traskers> I have CoverGloobus running on GNOME Shell (11.04) and it starts up automatically at boot, but doesn't actually show up until I re-select the theme in the configuration, can anyone help me figure this out?
[06:55] <A_J> then ZykoticK9  ?
[06:55] <ZykoticK9> A_J, the instructions in that link are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall
[06:55] <fredy> please helpme
[06:56] <traskers> I'm also wondering how to automatically mount my external HDD at boot as well?
[06:56] <r0fs3ck5> fredy: there is a good video tutorial here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEsOfNuc-sk

[06:58] <ressi> after installing 10.04 in my laptop its touchpad is not working.why?
[06:58] <traskers> ZykoticK9, ah, of course. What's the easiest way to get the device name? (ie, /dev/xxx) to put in there to mount it?
[06:58] <ressi> can anybody help?
[06:59] <ZykoticK9> traskers, if it's mounted right now just type "mount" to see everything.  if not, you do need to figure out what device it is...
[06:59] <A_J> ZykoticK9,  where in the post
[06:59] <A_J> looks like all checkinstall
[07:00] <traskers> ZykoticK9, thanks, and should I use all of the options that it's already mounted with, I assume, in the fstab?
[07:02] <ZykoticK9> traskers, if it's FAT/NTFS then probably yes (i'm not the person to ask about those, I only use native gnu/linux formats which don't typically need many options)
