[20:14] <maco> magicianlord: that's spelled Abby usually
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: ubuntu is a distro of linux
[20:14] <rumpe1> genii-around, lynx is a transitional package... lynx-cur is the right one. I would be interested in some proof, that links and lynx are the same.

[20:16] <evulhotdog> Bill|iPad hahahahaha love you
[20:16] <kob> Bill|iPad: cn
[20:16] <arvind_khadri> mkl: how are you compiling your program?
[20:16] <delinquentme> im having to run a program from my CLI .. and id like to detatch the running of the program .. from the cli .. so when i close the command line .. it doesnt kill the program .. is there a flag for this?
[20:16] <Bill|iPad> Shrug if you were I'd help
[20:17] <arvind_khadri> delinquentme: put a & at the end of the command
[20:17] <MrMintanet> When I run "sudo sh setup", I get this error in return.  "setup: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
[20:17] <delinquentme> arvind_khadri, so id input " sudo ./arduino & "
[20:17] <Bill|iPad> Delinquentime: alt-f2
[20:17] <Bill|iPad> Type program name
[20:18] <arvind_khadri> delinquentme: ya, try that
[20:18] <dimmortal> oh. nm figured it out
[20:18] <rumpe1> delinquentme,  command & disown
[20:18] <genii-around> rumpe1: I am corrected, the lynx-cur is in fact the real package. Apologies. Previously it would install elinks for me
[20:18] <kob> Bill|iPad: ?
[20:18] <guntbert> delinquentme: thats not enough. use nohup too
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: i'd contact the vendor. You have paid for support
[20:19] <dimmortal> oh wait no I didn't
[20:19] <guntbert> delinquentme: or what rumpe1 said
[20:19] <Bill|iPad> Eh gtg back to work :D
[20:19] <delinquentme> looks like " sudo & ./arduino doesnt work
[20:19] <Bill|iPad> Bbl
[20:19] <delinquentme> guntbert, how does nohup work  "  sudo nohup ./arduino "?
[20:20] <mkl> arvind_khadri: i don't, i've got a program that has a script that creates executable by generating cpp code and compiling it
[20:20] <rumpe1> delinquentme, nohup <command> &
[20:20] <guntbert> delinquentme: hmm..  I'm not sure at the moment...
[20:20] <magicianlord> i upgraded openoffice and it's still at version 3.2.1
[20:21] <magicianlord> what was the upgrade for the
[20:21] <rumpe1> delinquentme, or learn to use screen ... very useful tool
[20:21] <maco> magicianlord: probably a bugfix. new upstream versions dont go into stable ubuntu releases
[20:21] <mkl> arvind_khadri: wrapper_main.cpp:(.text+0x3bb): undefined reference to `glXSwapIntervalSGI'
[20:22] <magicianlord> a bugfix 68mb in download size?
[20:22] <delinquentme> rumpe1, AWESOME    " nohup ./arduino & " works phenomenally :D
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: the fact you downloaded it from daemonoid puts the consistency of the data in question. You should get a good one from the site you paid as well as MD5 test the data so you know its good
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: what's it a fix for?
[20:24] <dub54> how can I share a folder over a network?
[20:25] <l1nuxman> is evolution the best email client ?
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> dub54: you can use samba or sshfs or ftp
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> l1nuxman: there is no best email client
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> l1nuxman: so in answer to your question, no it isn't
[20:26] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, just a follow-up it seems if I select a dynamically resizing drive rather then fixed it makes it just fine with no hanging

[20:26] <shadaloo> what i the fix?
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: go with that then ;)
[20:26] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, yep going with that now. Worth a bug report?
[20:27] <shadaloo> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-generic:
[20:27] <l1nuxman> ActionParsnip, which do you use?
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: sure you can, you just need to keep evolution-data-server-common

[20:28] <NickGGG> hi, how can I resize my partition with gparted ??
[20:28] <Welshy-Rob> Hi
[20:29] <Welshy-Rob> dose anyone know of a decent keyloger for educational purposes? as i would like to know how they work and operate?
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: you can do it in a liveCD, the partitions must be unmounted which will happen in the livecd
[20:30] <loculinux> hola ,tengo 20 años y soy rubia,tengo ganas de follar
[20:30] <kob>  hi all, anyone running TOR ? I'd need a running bridge to connect to the network
[20:31] <antonello> hello
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> !tor | kob
[20:31] <antonello> the list of torrent???
[20:31] <loculinux> kien kiere follar?
[20:31] <Welshy-Rob> kob,  i use tor
[20:31] <antonello> 1list
[20:31] <antonello> !list
[20:32] <kob> ActionParsnip: yes, you use it ?
[20:32] <evulhotdog> ...so why doesnt xcursor selector work, straight from ubuntu software center?
[20:32] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: Im in the live environment, but when I click on resize it says the max size is 2gb and i need more
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> kob: no, i dont see the point
[20:33] <dimmortal> lol ok I got it now.....the order was getting me.... had to put it before any as in     !(role=buddy_list) & any
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: then you may b
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: need to free up space
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> i really cant type today
[20:34] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: I shrinked another partition but its still the same
[20:34] <westmi49319> how do i find out which grub i have?
[20:34] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: on the ubuntu partition i got nothing but ubu
[20:35] <EmuAlert> What's the command to mount a drive or mount all drives?
[20:35] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo e2fsck -c /dev/dsa7' asks me: "Clone multiply-claimed blocks<y>?" What should I answer?
[20:35] <Fuchs> mount -a for all (in fstab), mount <options> for a specific one, EmuAlert
[20:35] <kob> ActionParsnip: ok, you mean the point to use it !?
[20:35] <Fuchs> bullgard4: the default (yes) is probably sane
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: reduce installed apps or clear of userdata you can afford to lose
[20:36] <kob> ActionParsnip: for just, it's just because it need to jump over the great firewall and that's a way to do it
[20:36] <bullgard4> Fuchs: Right.
[20:36] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: you mean in the partition im trying to resize?
[20:36] <kob> ActionParsnip: me*
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> kob: i see, makes sense
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: yes, if you want to resize, you need to make free space to resize into
[20:37] <nemo> if my processor is spiking at like 70% CPU usage on file operations
[20:37] <nemo> but no processes seem to be involved
[20:37] <nemo> that would be kernel?
[20:37] <magicianlord> does pulseaudio increase audio quality or volume over the standard alsa?
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> nemo: run: top   and you can see what is using the cpu
[20:38] <nemo> ActionParsnip: right. been doing that
[20:38] <nemo> and nothing shows
[20:38] <nemo> thus my asking about kernel
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: it adds a few extra features
[20:39] <dimmortal> now if I can figure out how to make it dockable(reserve space like panels do) I can put it on its own desktop and have 1 deskspace for pidgin.... anyone know if/how that might be done??
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> ha, nokia N900 uses pulse
[20:39] <NickGGG> if i want to uninstall ubu can i just delete the ubu partitions from the live cd ?
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: sure but you will need to reinstate the windows boot loader if you dualboot, you will LOSE the data on the partitions you delete
[20:40] <BlueBomber7> ActionParsnip, magicianlord:  From what someone over in #ardour was teaching me, PulseAudio doesn't really replace ALSA, but interfaces with it.  JACK is another alternative to Pulse aimed at professionals.
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> BlueBomber7: ive never dug into sound in linux, mine always just works and does what its supopsed to do :)
[20:41] <BlueBomber7> ActionParsnip: Same with mine, and I use a professional external sound card (Edirol UA25).
[20:41] <evulhotdog> is there an app to change cursors in ubuntu?
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> evulhotdog: its in the display properties, customise the theme and you change the cursor
[20:42] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: so if i delete only ubu partitions will I lose windows data ?
[20:42] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, You can install heaps of different cursors throught Synaptic (Software Centre)
[20:42] <evulhotdog> nvm -_-
[20:42] <evulhotdog> YankDownUnder I selected Cursor Selection
[20:42] <evulhotdog> downloaded*
[20:42] <evulhotdog> and it didnt work at all YankDownUnder :(
[20:43] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, Log out, login.
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> NickGGG: no, its a different partition
[20:43] <evulhotdog> lol i looked it up online, apparently it hasnt been updated since aug of 2004... YankDownUnder
[20:43] <dimmortal> I think he ment each cursor event like in windows
[20:43] <NickGGG> ActionParsnip: so when I delete the ubu partitions I will be able to boot under windows ?
[20:45] <dimmortal> NickGGG:  is grub on one of the windows partition??
[20:45] <IrcUser55> Is there a way for me to share settings and emails of the Evolution email client both on Windows and Ubuntu? And is there Evolution for Windows anywhere, or is it only available in Gnome of Ubuntu?
[20:45] <maco> IrcUser55: gnome only
[20:45] <NickGGG> dimmortal: how can I check ?
[20:45] <magicianlord> i couldnt compire the broadcom driver on kernel 2.6.37, until i took out a line from on of the files
[20:46] <maco> IrcUser55: well....could use it with kde.... so i should say free-software-operating-systems-only
[20:46] <YankDownUnder> IrcUser55, Yes, there IS a version of Evolution for MS Windows. http://www.dipconsultants.com/evolution/
[20:46] <IrcUser55> maco: ok, thanks :)
[20:48] <chaos2358> is there anyway i can setup to not have to enter passwords at all?? It's a private laptop with a "power on " password set in my bios so there is no need for it. I'm running ubuntu 10.10
[20:48] <dimmortal> well when you installed ubuntu... the windows partition was the first one on the drive...right??
[20:48] <NickGGG> yes
[20:49] <IrcUser55> YankDownUnder: thanks. That is what I was also told by a friend, but he also told me it was outdated? (or a dead project anyway)
[20:49] <dimmortal> then grub "should" be on that partition
[20:49] <Arch97> ubuntu is so bad
[20:49] <Arch97> its well
[20:49] <Arch97> yes
[20:49] <dimmortal> as it's the one with the boot sector
[20:49] <Arch97> its fucking bad
[20:49] <evulhotdog> YankDownUnder even when i try to change the cursor through 'appearance' it doesnt change, i select it, press close, and it just doesnt change...????
[20:49] <Arch97> its for bitches
[20:49] <YankDownUnder> IrcUser55, It's a point of showing that it can be compiled under Win32, and I've used it for clients to import their email from Outlook, then copy it into Evolution under Ubuntu.
[20:50] <chaos2358> !language | Arch97
[20:50] <NickGGG> dimmortal: so if I delete the ubu partitions can I boot into windows?
[20:50] <Guest43282> Does any body here has some problems with emesene ? i just cant connect !
[20:50] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, Install some different cursor themes through the Software Centre, try again, also, log out  and login.
[20:50] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo e2fsck -c /dev/sda7; home: 36753/1802240 files /(12.8% non-contiguous), 2438714/3602568 blocks'. Why is "(12.8% non-contiguous)" important?
[20:50] <evulhotdog> YankDownUnder i just rebooted, and it didnt work :O but will try with some 3rd party
[20:51] <dimmortal> you should be able to.. I think... but I haven't really tried it my self
[20:51] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, If you're trying with 3d party stuff, and it already doesn't work, don't expect a miracle.
[20:51] <evulhotdog> lol im using ubuntu :O
[20:51] <evulhotdog> in the appearance settings
[20:51] <dimmortal> why would you want to get rid of ubuntu??
[20:52] <evulhotdog> okay explain this, it chnaged the text cursor icon, and the link button icon, but not the main cursor YankDownUnder :P
[20:52] <MikeMike1> can anybody recommend me a good program to convert files?
[20:53] <dimmortal> MikeMike1:  depends on what kinda files you're converting...lol
[20:53] <genii-around> MikeMike1: From what to what?
[20:53] <MikeMike1> flv to mp4
[20:54] <MikeMike1> i want to put youtube videos on my ipod lol
[20:54] <IrcUser55> YankDownUnder: ok. I don't want to bother anyone, so just a last question (because you said you used Evolution on Windows). Is it possible to share their settings somehow (for both the win and Ubuntu versions of Evolution)?
[20:54] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, I can only explain based on what I know, which is only that you wanted to change the cursor theme. What window manager are you using? Have you installed any GTK themes?
[20:54] <evulhotdog> no themes
[20:54] <dimmortal> eww... apple pod
[20:54] <evulhotdog> pure default ubuntu
[20:54] <evulhotdog> other than compiz settings changes.
[20:54] <YankDownUnder> IrcUser55, In all reality, the way that I do it for clients is I setup postfix+dovecot+imap and setup each individually.
[20:55] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, If you can't change a cursor theme, can you change an icon theme?
[20:55] <root_cyc> hello
[20:55] <evulhotdog> let me try
[20:55] <root_cyc> hello
[20:55] <MikeMike1> anything?
[20:55] <root_cyc> qll network
[20:56] <evulhotdog> okay
[20:56] <evulhotdog> icons worked
[20:56] <evulhotdog> changed in the 'places'
[20:56] <evulhotdog> Like I said, its odd that the cursor when hovering over text, changed, and the link hand changed, but the main cursor did not. I just want a black cursor!! haha
[20:57] <IrcUser55> YankDownUnder: ok, thank you very much :D (althougt I admit I didn't understand what you last said). Anyway, thanks a lot :) bye
[20:57] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, Being that cursors and icons are basically the same, then I'd suggest installing like "Oxygen-cursor-theme" through Synaptic (Software Centre), change to an Oxygen cursor, see if that changes at all - eliminate things in order to troubleshoot.
[20:58] <evulhotdog> btw installed a custom theme, still didnt change the main cursor. ( i have oxygen, haha, it changes the 'loading' icon, link icon, and text icon (icon==cursor) but doesnt change the main plain cursor
[20:58] <thorbj0rn> evulhotdog: there is a whole other selection dialog for cursors
[20:59] <dimmortal> try the comix theme.. its more obvious when it changes
[20:59] <evulhotdog> dimmortal, i can tell what the changes are lol
[20:59] <thorbj0rn> evulhotdog: Appearance > Themes > Customize > Pointer
[20:59] <evulhotdog> and thorbj0rn thats where im changing it...
[21:00] <thorbj0rn> the cursor should change immediately upon clicking the new style in the list
[21:00] <thorbj0rn> even before you choose Close
[21:01] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/reset-system-wide-cursor-theme.html

[21:05] <malebogia> Basically - no sound at all
[21:06] <malebogia> I started to fiddle with pulseaudio because i had some problerms with sound in wine and now i don't get any sound at all
[21:06] <th_> thorbj0rn, how about this: http://katsomo.fi/?progId=59908
[21:07] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo e2fsck -c /dev/sda7; home: 36753/1802240 files /(12.8% non-contiguous), 2438714/3602568 blocks'. Why is "(12.8% non-contiguous)" important?
[21:08] <evulhotdog> that didnt work either YankDownUnder :O
[21:08] <malebogia> Is there any way of getting back to default setup??
[21:08] <malebogia> I mean right after installation?
[21:09] <bullgard4> malebogia: Probably not.
[21:09] <MikeMike1> Having trouble with ffmpeg!
[21:09] <YankDownUnder> evulhotdog, Did you check out the link I posted to ya?
[21:09] <bullgard4> !sound | malebogia
[21:09] <magicianlord> what is the name of the codecs to isntall so that Pitivi can properly modify video files?
[21:09] <evulhotdog> yeah
[21:09] <evulhotdog> thats what didnt work hah a
[21:10] <evulhotdog> YankDownUnder*
[21:10] <malebogia> I get no hardware at all
[21:10] <bullgard4> malebogia: I beg your pardon? Say it in other words, please.
[21:10] <minimec> malebogia: pulseaudio --kill, then open your /home/yourname directory and delete/rename the .pulse folder.
[21:11] <Helbom> damn this is gonna take some time getting used to
[21:12] <malebogia> minimer: and then what?
[21:12] <steinex> hi
[21:12] <steinex> i have a problem installing phonon-backend-gstreamer on 10.10. i get the following error: phonon-backend-gstreamer : Depends: libphonon4 (= 4:4.7.0really4.4.2-0ubuntu1) but 4:4.7.0really4.4.4-0ubuntu1~maverick1~ppa1 is to be installed
[21:12] <minimec> malebogia: logout/login. Pulseaudio will think that you use it the first time and make a new .pulse folder with default settings.
[21:13] <steinex> can someone confirm this?
[21:13] <Helbom> just a question... what's the first things i should get into with linux? i feel lost lol :P
[21:13] <minimec> malebogia: You may backup the old .pulse folder...
[21:13] <malebogia> minimer: ok, write you in a sec
[21:14] <arbiter> Helbom: just try and familiarise yourself with the OS, try and find the alternatives to the previous OS you used and get yourself set up comfortably :)
[21:14] <steinex> anyone?
[21:14] <magicianlord> what is your issue
[21:14] <Helbom> thanks arbiter :)
[21:15] <magicianlord> what do you need, Helbom
[21:15] <Helbom> well i want to use it as a web dev enviorment
[21:15] <bastidrazor> ubottu: tell Helbom about manual
[21:15] <kermit> on a recent dell laptop, is it possible to use touchpad scrollwheel emulation?
[21:16] <Helbom> thanks for the link :) gone reading
[21:18] <malebogia> minimer: still no hardware in the prefs
[21:18] <malebogia> -.still no sound
[21:19] <minimec> malebogia: but you had them before. Did alsa crash? Did you reboot your machine once?
[21:20] <malebogia> minimer: Actually I did mess around with the drivers in order to get wine to play sound all the time instead of from timete to time
[21:21] <malebogia> and now aplay says : no soundcard found
[21:21] <minimec> malebogia: So you don't have a pulseaudio problem actually...
[21:21] <malebogia> minimer: but?
[21:22] <malebogia> minimer: sudo lshw -c sound sees my card
[21:22] <elv> hi how can i copy a package from ubuntu primary archive to my ppa? i just saw some packages marked as " thanks

[21:23] <mister2> is there a direct client to client chat interface for ubuntu? p2p would be the same thing. thanks
[21:23] <minimec> malebogia: did you compile a new kernel module or a special alsa version? what did you do exactly?
[21:24] <malebogia> minimer: basically I tried to get rid of pulse and install all new alsa
[21:24] <izinucs> mister2: ekiga with video too. uses a relay server but I think you can also connect directly. teamviewer for remote chat & control
[21:24] <mister2> izinucs: thanks, but i need it to be serverless, is ekiga?
[21:24] <elv> look at this for example is copied directly from natty. how is it possible? https://launchpad.net/~guido-iodice/+archive/guiodic-testing/+sourcepub/1485246/+listing-archive-extra

[21:26] <elv> pleaseeee
[21:26] <maninthemiddle> actually, I did   sudo rm /*   on ubuntu 10.10
[21:26] <maninthemiddle> is there a way to quick fix it?
[21:26] <Silivrenion> i just made a really bad mistake, and I need some help
[21:26] <k89> ask
[21:26] <guntbert> maninthemiddle: reinstall
[21:26] <Silivrenion> I just overwrote my /usr/lib32 directory with a file
[21:26] <izinucs> mister2: it's initially setup that way because it's also a voip client.. ie computer to pots line.. or computer to computer.. you may be able to get it to connect directly if you know the IP of the other machine.
[21:26] <minimec> malebogia: So if it doesn't work, udo it. I see that there is hte possibility...
[21:27] <mister2> izinucs: i do know the ip, but i don't have a second machine for testing purposes and need to have one implementation...
[21:27] <maninthemiddle> maninthemiddle I've lost only files from root, not whole directory structure
[21:27] <Silivrenion> i have NO idea what to do at this point
[21:27] <elv> no one know how copy packages from primary archive?
[21:28] <edbian> Silivrenion, what's the problem?
[21:28] <Silivrenion> I have another ubuntu system operational, but i dunno if you can just copy the folder back?
[21:28] <Silivrenion> I just overwrote my /usr/lib32 directory with a file
[21:28] <malebogia> minimer: The problem is - I don't know how
[21:29] <Silivrenion> edbian, is there anything i can do/
[21:29] <edbian> Silivrenion, I don't know what the problem is
[21:29] <Silivrenion> I just overwrote my /usr/lib32 directory with a file

[21:31] <Silivrenion> edbian, I was trying to copy something to /usr/lib32/, but i accidentally copied over lib32
[21:31] <mister2> avashil .tgz is from source, extract it run ./config and make or something. lookup installing from the source on google
[21:31] <lolmac404> what is the best search mecanism i could use in ubuntu? i wanted to index 430.000 files that have 3tb
[21:31] <lolmac404> could i search for a file and the search results come up fast?
[21:31] <edbian> Silivrenion, I'm not sure that's fixable easily.  Does the system boot?

[21:32] <Silivrenion> edbian, system is still running, but probably won't boot if i restart
[21:32] <BuMpIc> i have two computers in my wifi newtork.How could  i connect from my a computer to my b computer to see its directories?
[21:32] <edbian> Silivrenion, I'm looking up what those files are used for.  Looking at my /usr/lib they appear to be very specific to my use
[21:32] <malebogia> minimec: OK
[21:32] <Silivrenion> edbian, i have another ubuntu machine lying around.. would copying things from /usr/lib32/ on that machine to this machine work?
[21:32] <avashi1> so do i just extract the .tgz folder to desktop.. no need to install it ??? I am lost
[21:32] <edbian> Silivrenion, Lemme research a little
[21:33] <mister2> avashil no, you have to install it. look up installing from the source.
[21:33] <guntbert> avashi1: read, what ubottu sent you
[21:33] <minimec> malebogia: I don't know what you did exactly, but that tutorial gives you an uninstalling option... So just unistall it. Afterwards you might do a 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa'. That's all I can tell you.
[21:34] <edbian> Silivrenion, Perhaps you can get lucky: do this sudo apt-get install -reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[21:34] <edbian> Silivrenion, I'm hoping that the package manager replaces everything that is missing from /usr/lib
[21:34] <malebogia> minimec: OK, I'll try. Thanks
[21:34] <Silivrenion> edbian, should i try copying stuff from another ubuntu installation before doing that?
[21:35] <paradigmflow> noobie question; where would I find installed programs?
[21:35] <ray_> is there a program that will extract and install tar.gz with ease?
[21:35] <edbian> Silivrenion, it's worth a shot.  How similar are the packages on these two systems?
[21:35] <edbian> paradigmflow, /usr/bin/
[21:35] <Silivrenion> edbian, fairly similar
[21:35] <paradigmflow> thnx
[21:35] <avashi1> I checked what ubottu sent me.. Thanks but it has millions of steps.. i just need to know how to install a .tgz file
[21:35] <Fuchs> paradigmflow: the files are distributed over /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib and so on. But for you as a user: the app should be in the menu, the binary (the file "launching it") will be in $PATH, which is probably /usr/bin/
[21:35] <smw> Anyone know what to do if update-grub2 does not find windows?
[21:36] <newpuppyuser5> if installed gnome based Mint 10, can i switch to xfce after install=
[21:36] <edbian> Silivrenion, Then it's worth a shot.  /usr/lib are libraries (bunches of code) that are used by more than one program.  It's likely that many programs will not run if it's missing but you do something like sudo apt-get install -reinstall ubuntu-desktop it'll get just about everything for you. (hopefully 100% of the shared files)
[21:36] <emka> 1005919
[21:36] <edbian> Silivrenion, then from there you can just sudo apt-get install -reinstall <programName> whenever some specific app doesn't work.
[21:36] <paradigmflow> thnx
[21:36] <nimrod10> what's the best tool to encrypt a partition after install ?
[21:37] <Silivrenion> edbian, i'm going to try the manual copy first incase the reinstall breaks
[21:37] <edbian> Silivrenion, go for it
[21:37] <edbian> Silivrenion, I kinda predict that the entire thing might sort of be weird for a while
[21:37] <maninthemiddle> allright, I executed `sudo rm /*`, which removed only files in /, not directories . After this I used boot cd to restore two links usually sitting in /:  initrd.img  and  vmlinuz. But on boot system gives me "run-init: /sbin/init: No such file or directory"
[21:38] <Antonis> is it possible to change the username in ubuntu?
[21:38] <guntbert> !mint | newpuppyuser5
[21:38] <maninthemiddle> any ideas on my stupid move?
[21:38] <lolmac404> what is the best search mecanism i could use in ubuntu? i wanted to index 430.000 files that have 3tb
[21:38] <lolmac404> could i search for a file and the search results come up fast?

[21:39] <brandon420> how can i make the terminal auto complete file names? (in rtorrent)
[21:39] <Antonis> guntbert, I have a friend of mine who installed ubuntu yesterday and want to change his username today :P
[21:39] <edbian> lolmac404, look at locate
[21:39] <edbian> lolmac404, It's a great package
[21:39] <lolmac404> thanks
[21:39] <edbian> Antonis, System -> admin -> users and groups
[21:39] <edbian> brandon420, using the tab key
[21:40] <brandon420> edbian, that doesnt work.
[21:40] <brandon420> it should, but it doesnt
[21:40] <edbian> brandon420, then the app doesn't support it
[21:40] <brandon420> edbian, it dosnt even work when i try and do it to anyfile, in any terminal
[21:40] <Antonis> edbian, oh that easy huh? never thought of that :P thank you
[21:40] <malebogia> minimec: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa" returned:  alsa not installed
[21:41] <edbian> brandon420, what about with program names?
[21:41] <edbian> brandon420, try pressing tab more than once
[21:41] <edbian> Antonis, that easy
[21:41] <minimec> malebogia: oh it's alsa-base probalby
[21:41] <malebogia> minimec: but when I've tried to install it it says that alsa-base is in the newest version
[21:41] <Silivrenion> edbian, there's no lib32 directory on my ubuntu 10.4 laptop :P
[21:41] <diskin> hi all, is it a known problem, then when I find any text in chromium, it get's highlited, and then if I switch to another tab, select something with mouse, then switch back to the tab with highlited word, it replaces my Linux selection buffer automatically?
[21:42] <Silivrenion> edbian, i see lib, lib64
[21:42] <edbian> Silivrenion, I didn't have one either.  Just lib and lib64
[21:42] <edbian> Silivrenion, yeah, lib must be 32
[21:42] <Silivrenion> edbian, may be that this is a non issue :)
[21:42] <edbian> Silivrenion, perhaps... :)
[21:42] <Silivrenion> edbian, good to find out. well, thanks anyway!
[21:42] <edbian> Silivrenion, Are you able to start many different programs?  Did you notice that any will not start since you deleted this folder?
[21:43] <Silivrenion> edbian, no, the system seems stable
[21:43] <edbian> Silivrenion, Then I think you're actually fine :)
[21:43] <minimec> malebogia: just reconfigure it to be sure. Probably we don't need that, but who cares.
[21:43] <minimec> malebogia: Then simply reboot.
[21:43] <malebogia> minimec: And by "reconfigure" you mean?
[21:44] <Silivrenion> edbian, what i was trying to do before i panicked was install the libstdc++.so.5 library
[21:44] <Silivrenion> edbian, i found it in the debian repos, and was going to just manually put it in, but the guide i'm using must be dated
[21:44] <edbian> Silivrenion, typically you (as the user) never have to mess with .so files directly, the package manager does that
[21:44] <brokendatapoint> hi, with multiple Ubuntu machines at home, what would be the best setup for system maintenance? apt-cache-ng or a full offline Debmirror?
[21:44] <brandon420> edbian, it seems that you were right, rtorrent doesnt support it. its weird cause when i use rtorrent from ssh, it does work...
[21:45] <edbian> Silivrenion, You should NOT be using Debian repos
[21:45] <boozee> hello
[21:45] <edbian> brandon420, very odd indeed...
[21:45] <brokendatapoint> boozee: hi
[21:45] <edbian> boozee, heloo!
[21:45] <smw> Anyone know what to do if update-grub2 does not find windows?
[21:45] <Silivrenion> edbian, heh, the guide i'm using is really bad then :/
[21:46] <edbian> Silivrenion, extremely bad, I suggest you don't use it
[21:46] <boozee> I have an Ubuntu Server on EC2, and I need to have a user which will have sftp access with a password (instead of the currently certificate-only option)
[21:46] <maninthemiddle> holy luck, I linked lib64 to /lib and it booted flawlessly
[21:46] <boozee> I only want that user to have a password (and I've set his bash as /bin/false)
[21:46] <boozee> it will have only access to his home directory and nothing else.
[21:46] <boozee> how can I do that ?
[21:47] <boozee> I currently get "Permission denied (publickey).
[21:47] <boozee> Connection closed"
[21:47] <minimec> malebogia: sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base
[21:47] <malebogia> minimec:Hmmm, and reebot?
[21:48] <minimec> malebogia: or restart the alsa deamon.

[21:49] <minimec> malebogia: So why do you manually change your sound configuration? ;)
[21:49] <arbiter> smw: you need to manually add the entry into your grub.cfg
[21:49] <coz_> kg4rxs,  in terminal are you doing   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade  or  are you going from one version of ubuntu to another?
[21:49] <kg4rxs> yes
[21:49] <smw> arbiter, do you have a link?
[21:50] <coz_> kg4rxs,  which one :)
[21:50] <arbiter> I can walk you through it
[21:50] <malebogia> minimec: I've tried to follow how-to's but it turned out there were a little bit outdated ( aka. no alsaconf for example:( )

[21:51] <smw> arbiter, ok, please make sure to say my name before every line :-)
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | kg4rxs
[21:51] <coz_> kg4rxs,  mm  what command did you use for the upgrade?
[21:51] <malebogia> minimec: And, as I've mentioned before, the sound was working on and off with Wine
[21:51] <minimec> malebogia: There is a lot of change, that's true. Also the whole xserver is in permanent change...
[21:51] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  thanks  I keep forgetting about  these things :)
[21:51] <coz_> !upgrade
[21:51] <minimec> malebogia: Wouldn't there be some wine optimisation options?
[21:52] <minimec> malebogia: .. whitout touching the alsa?
[21:52] <Sanky> Also, a recent Ubuntu update has enabled my touchpad (it never worked before).  But i want to turn it off again.  I can turn it of in the GPointing Device Setigns, but it turns itself on again after a few minutes ._.

[21:56] <Renfield> How do I disable a service, and prevent it from starting again?
[21:56] <bastidrazor> uitrix1: from my understanding you can only delete one of the panels.
[21:56] <edbian> Renfield, remove that service, or turn it off in System -> admin -
[21:56] <edbian> bastidrazor, uitrix1 It forces you to always have at least one while it is running
[21:56] <bastidrazor> Renfield: in /etc/init.d/servicename rename it to /etc/init.d/servicename.DISABLE
[21:56] <Renfield> edbian: This is a server, and I am at the terminal. Are there commands I can use?
[21:57] <edbian> Renfield, sudo service <serviceName> stop

[21:57] <Helbom> i have some serious problems with ubuntu :/
[21:57] <Renfield> edbian: Among the services I wish to stop is avahi.

[21:58] <edbian> Renfield, sudo apt-get remove avahi-daemon will get rid of it permanently
[21:58] <bastidrazor> Renfield: rename it and it will not start.
[21:58] <Renfield> edbian: Ok, but say I don't want to get rid of it just yet.

[21:58] <malebogia> minimec: If you meant hardware tab in sound prefs then it was never gone but still there's no card in it
[21:58] <edbian> Renfield, rename it as suggested by bastidrazor
[21:59] <minimec> malebogia: after reboot?
[21:59] <edbian> metallico, I suggest you boot a live CD and look at /etc/passwd
[21:59] <Renfield> Well, I don't want to nitpick, but wouldn't say an upgrade of that package restore it?

[22:03] <bullgard4> coz_: Thank you very much for your information.
[22:03] <metallico> so is there any way i could change the password of an ubuntu (wubi) installation?
[22:03] <edbian> metallico, it's much harder with wubi
[22:04] <bullgard4> mkanyicy: After having inserted the Lve CD how to start recovering Grub?
[22:04] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: what do you want to do?
[22:04] <minimec> malebogia: You could delete/rename the alsa folders in the /etc folder of your system. Could be that the module changed some alsa config file located there.
[22:04] <bastidrazor> Renfield: you may need to  add .DISABLED with a d on the end.
[22:05] <Helbom> have anyone here experienced dying keyboard/mouse?

[22:05] <Renfield> bastidrazor: Oh, so if I rename it just that way, and say the package is upgraded, Ubuntu will notice that and not just create a new file with the .DISABLED?

[22:07] <bullgard4> mkanyicy: Is "this" a valid syntactical construct on the command line? I have never heard about it.
[22:08] <greppy> metallico: it would have to be the /etc/shadow file, not /etc/passwd.
[22:08] <Renfield> I know that in Solaris if you rename a link in /etc/rc*.d from say S01foo to s01foo, it won't start it.
[22:08] <Renfield> Does Ubuntu do the same?
[22:08] <mkanyicy> bullgard4: it's just a folder name, you can use another name
[22:08] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: I would, but the game is pretty stubborn about insisting it be in the same drive
[22:08] <Promethes> or is there a way to install older not buggy version on grub in lucid?
[22:09] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: then it's not ubuntu's fault
[22:09] <Renfield> Or maybe it was from S01foo to X01foo.
[22:09] <bindi> Any idea why I have to close my laptop lid TWICE in order for it to sleep?
[22:09] <bindi> Oh, 10.04 and the laptop is a Toshiba satellite pro A100
[22:09] <kg4rxs> coz i tryd  all of them u side any other suggestions
[22:09] <jrib> Renfield: well sort of.
[22:09] <jrib> !upstart | Renfield
[22:10] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: Never said it was, I was just looking for a way to force an eject to the loopback
[22:10] <Renfield> jrib: Yea, I looked at upstart, and it didn't really say how to permanently disable a service.
[22:10] <malebogia> minimec: The thing Is I can't see a folder named "alsa" in my /etc
[22:11] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: sounds fancy they way you state it
[22:11] <root> чсм
[22:11] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: you mean unmounting a mounted iso?
[22:11] <malebogia> minimec: there is alsasound in /etc/init.d/ but that's it
[22:12] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: Can't umount, the iso has open file, hence the forcing part. The game is designed to eject an eject command to the disk drive
[22:12] <jrib> Renfield: basically ubuntu now uses upstart but upstart runs sysv init jobs (so old things won't break).  What this means is there are now two possible ways a package may be starting.  1) it's the old sysv init way and you should use sysv-rc-conf, not manually edit files in that case (one day all these will be converted to upstart... one day...).  2) On the other hand, you can have a job started through
[22:12] <jrib> upstart (/etc/init).  In that case, some scripts provide nice ways to disable it (read the particular script for hints).  If there is no nice way, then just edit the script in /etc/init directly and change when it starts (for example you can add "never" as a starting condition)
[22:12] <Nach0z> Is there a way to prevent a sudoer from using a specific command?
[22:12] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: why dont you just mount another iso on top of the first one?
[22:13] <Fuchs> Nach0z: yes. You can specify programs via the sudoers file, but blacklisting is a bit more complicated than withelisting
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> Nach0z: no as it has the same access as root
[22:13] <Jordan_U> Nach0z: blacklisting commands is futile, whitelisting is easy and reasonable though.
[22:13] <felicity> how do i apply cycle.c to dwm?
[22:13] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: The open files prevent it
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> Fuchs: I think s/he wants to make a sudo user not be able to launch certain commands
[22:13] <Renfield> jrib: Ok, thanks. I'll look at sysv-rc-conf.
[22:13] <Fuchs> ActionParsnip: aware of it, and this is possible, but not really simple
[22:14] <jrib> Renfield: what specifically are you trying to control?
[22:14] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: Or at the very least, it appears that way, it silently fails to work
[22:14] <edbian> jrib, shutdown
[22:14] <jrib> edbian: 0_o
[22:14] <minimec> malebogia: YOu see. That's where I have to learn again in Ubuntu. I only habe alsa-mixer-save in /etc/init.d Again I am outdated when it comes to sound in Ubuntu. I definitly cannot help you help you .I have to learn myself ;)
[22:14] <Fuchs> ActionParsnip: you can either create a specific command list for this user in the sudoers file and not put him in the regular sudoers group, or make an own group for this
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> Fuchs: yeah sounds finikity
[22:14] <edbian> jrib, he's trying to control the shutdown command ;)
[22:14] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: so the 'ejecting of loopback' you are refering to, are you doing that under wine?
[22:14] <metallico> i just went into root shell prompt from the recovery console option and changed the password via 'passwd'. the system said it has been changed sucesfully, rebooting now to see if i will manage to login..
[22:14] <Renfield> jrib: A few things. mailman, avahi, openbsd-inetd, and courier-authdaemon.
[22:14] <Nach0z> Jordan_U: i'm not trying to TOTALLY blacklist the command, I just want it so that the user can't sudo halt as easily.
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> Fuchs: yeah thas what I thought it'd take, a LONG list of ok commands
[22:14] <edbian> metallico, that's the proper way to do it.  Should work
[22:15] <Renfield> jrib: It appears from the output of /etc/init.d/foo stop that only avahi-daemon has been converted to upstart on this system (9.10).
[22:15] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: Nope, Wine can't help it's the one holding the files
[22:15] <jrib> Renfield: I see.  Well first you need to determine if each of those is an upstart job or not (you can just look at /etc/init)
[22:15] <Fuchs> oh, in fact it is easy
[22:15] <Jordan_U> Burzmali: "umount -l" does a lazy unmount, which will probably accomplish what you need.
[22:15] <Fuchs> the sudoers file knows the ! syntax
[22:15] <malebogia> minimec: OK, Thank You for Your time anyway.
[22:15] <Zaffzaff> trying to get ts3 to work, with or without wine. any suggestions?
[22:16] <Fuchs> Nach0z: http://onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/09/12/Big_Scary_Daemons.html?page=2  << there you go, be careful when editing the sudoers file
[22:16] <Burzmali> Jordan_U: Thanks, I think I might have tricked it into working another way, but I'll let you know.
[22:16] <mkanyicy> Im not a wine expert, Burzmali, but I think you should try using another wine application, like alcholol 120% to insert&eject your iso's instead of using linux
[22:16] <Jordan_U> Burzmali: You're welcome.
[22:16] <Nach0z> Fuchs: How would I go about blacklisting the command then? It's not thjat i need it TOTALLY disabled, i just need it so that "sudo shutdown" doesn't work for a specific user.
[22:16] <Fuchs> Nach0z: I recommend creating a new group for that, excluding a list of comamnds you specify. Then take the specific user out of the regular sudoers group and put it in the new one
[22:16] <bindi> So.. anyone? My laptop lid needs to be closed twice so it hibernates. Ubuntu 10.04
[22:16] <minimec> malebogia: no problem.
[22:16] <jrib> Renfield: so reading through /etc/init/avahi-daemon.conf, it doesn't seem like it checks for a file to disable it, so I would just add "never" as a condition to start.  So it would "start on (never and filesystem and started dbus)"
[22:17] <mkanyicy> Burzmali: s/alcholol/alcohol/
[22:17] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: Looks like I can rename drives on the fly and trick the application into accepting two different locations
[22:17] <Fuchs> Nach0z: no problem. Create a new group, add the list of blacklisted commands to the sudoers file as explained in the article I linked to
[22:17] <Fuchs> Nach0z: then give this group the rights to execute everything with sudo execpt the commands you blacklisted. Remove the specific user from the regular sudoers group, but add it to the one you created
[22:17] <Nach0z> oh sorry. i didn't see the link xD
[22:17] <Burzmali> mkanyicy: The funny part is that I have the disks, but some sort of latency issue if screwing installer.
[22:18] <Nach0z> thanks Fuchs
[22:18] <Fuchs> Nach0z: as said, be careful when editing the sudoers file  (use visudo) and don't mess with the regular sudo group
[22:18] <Fuchs> no problem
[22:19] <jrib> Nach0z, Fuchs: although honestly if you give a user the ability to run everything except one command it would be pretty easy to still run that command
[22:19] <bullgard4> mkanyicy: I obtain: "Installation finished. No error reported."
[22:19] <edbian> jrib, Nach0z They could simply sudo nano /etc/sudoers and change it back ;)
[22:19]  * jrib nods
[22:19] <Fuchs> jrib: that's why I recommended a list, especially since there are lot of alternatives. But yes, you would need to disable shells as well, and probably everything that creates links and aliases
[22:20] <shadow66142000> I'm installing the 10.10 server and it's not auto configuring my internet connection. I always seem to have this issues with internet on Ubuntu but not with CentOS.
[22:20] <metallico> it fixed it guys, thank you very much!
[22:20] <Fuchs> jrib: however, it is probably bad, but still the best probability
[22:20] <shadow66142000> I can ping my router but not outside. Anyone mind giving me a little help?
[22:20] <Nach0z> jrib i don't want this command TOTALLY disabled for the user. But, the user has multiple servers that he likes to keep SSH's open to at once, and accidentally rebooted my server earlier. i just want to prevent that from happening.
[22:21] <edbian> shadow66142000, Something is wrong with the router
[22:21] <Fuchs> another possibility would be to use ACLs on the filesystem, and removing +x for that user
[22:21] <Fuchs> but I prefer the sudoers solution
[22:21] <malebogia> no soundcard in prefs , no sound at all, any help?
[22:22] <ActionParsnip> malebogia: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh    say yes to upload to the site, what is the URL generated please
[22:22] <haakon_> Anyone ever hade som problems with some insane memory consumption with vlc?
[22:22] <jrib> Nach0z: this is probably good enough for that then, but if he's malicious he would be able to workaround it
[22:23] <Nach0z> jrib he's not malicious. Just careless.
[22:23] <ibrahimb6> any one  knw how to connect mysql to netbean
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> malebogia: also, run:   alsamixer   and make sure all levels are cranked and not muted. Also make sure the speakers are on and cranked too
[22:23] <greppy> Nach0z: why not just rename it "halt.really" :)
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> haakon_: what version?
[22:23] <haakon_> ubuntu lucid
[22:23] <jrib> Nach0z: you should drop a "reboot" in his math that echoes a friendly message to him then
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> haakon_: no, vlc version?
[22:23] <jrib> Nach0z: s/math/path
[22:23] <Renfield> Okay, here is another question. I did apt-get remove dovecot-common. I see /etc/init.d/dovecot. apt-file search /etc/init.d/dovecot says that this file is owned by dovecot-common. What's going on here?
[22:23] <haakon_> 1.0.6
[22:24] <Nach0z> jrib what does that mean? o_0
[22:24] <haakon_> never experienced it before, but today I on my TV via HDMI
[22:24] <haakon_> I played it trough
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> haakon_: http://www.unixmen.com/software/1304-vlc-115-is-released-ppa-ubuntu-a-linuxmint    try a newer version
[22:24] <Renfield> I would have expected that apt-get remove would remove all of the files associated with a package.
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> Renfield: it does, but not the config unless you add --purge
[22:24] <jrib> Nach0z: you could put a file in his PATH, so that when he runs "reboot" it runs the file you created instead of the real reboot.  And the file you created could yell at him or something.  More of a joke suggestion
[22:25] <haakon_> thanks Action
[22:25] <haakon_> I'll check it out
[22:25] <Nach0z> lol ok. Dunno how to do that but it sounds funny.
[22:25] <lamefun> what is the size of ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso in bytes?
[22:25] <ibrahimb6> pls any one  knw how to connect mysql to netbean???
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> haakon_: that ppa only seems to accommodate maverick
[22:26] <Renfield> ActionParsnip: And if I've already done a remove without the --purge, do I need to install it again to remove it with --purge?
[22:26] <edbian> lamefun, 2 * 1024 * 1024
[22:26] <bindi> Ubuntu 10.04, laptop lid needs to be closed twice in order for it to hibernate

[22:29] <gordonjcp> anybody here know how to get the download link for the normal 10.10 iso?
[22:30] <guest458713> jrib: I checked with ubuntu apps, no succes
[22:30] <jrib> gordonjcp: ubuntu.com -_-  releases.ubuntu.com if you like less pictures
[22:30] <haakon_> thanks
[22:30] <gordonjcp> jrib: why isn't there a more obvious link to that, instead of a broken javascript-only button?
[22:31] <jrib> gordonjcp: web 2.0?
[22:31] <gordonjcp> jrib: never mind that there's still no easy way to install
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> gordonjcp: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso  MD5 = 59d15a16ce90c8ee97fa7c211b7673a8
[22:31] <jrib> gordonjcp: ubuntu.com works ok here.  What do you mean?
[22:31] <nikin> hy. i am trying to use pcmanfm. but the version ubuntu has is two years old. Not to mention it has features like samba access removed. Can i somehow get a newer version around 0.9.x on 10.4LTS?
[22:31] <guest458713> thanks guys
[22:31] <chaos2358> cN nyone help me get my Canon Pixma Mp250 all-in-one printer up and running?
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> nikin: i believe if you add the Lubuntu ppa there is a newer one
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: the canon site makes drivers for linux in most cases
[22:32] <nikin> ActionParsnip: thank you.. i check
[22:32] <gordonjcp> jrib: if you click the big orange "Download Now" button, it starts displaying the contents of the ISO as a rather strange-looking web page
[22:32] <jrib> gordonjcp: works ok here :/
[22:32] <gordonjcp> jrib: typical Ubuntu, form over function ;-)
[22:32] <malebogia> ActionParsnip: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=c114715451530bae6fa80467ff3d27420a675198
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> gordonjcp: I gave the link to the iso file, what more can you need?
[22:32] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip: yes thanks, I got that
[22:33] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip: what more?  Well, an image that can be written to a USB stick without having to faff about with unetbootin...?
[22:33] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  if i go to the US canon site they dont even support Linux on this model but in uk Canon i have downlloaded a tar.gz package and just cant get everything going.
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> gordonjcp: the ubuntu shop can sell you one ;)
[22:33] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip: on a USB key?
[22:33] <Stryker> gordonjcp, save the weird page as the file
[22:33] <Stryker> file>save page as
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> malebogia: use this: http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2010/05/02/upgrade-alsa-1-0-23-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx-10-04/   to get the driver, utils and lib to 1.0.23  as you currently have no alsa driver and a beta version of the utils
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> gordonjcp: yes
[22:34] <gordonjcp> Stryker: can you imagine the kind of state that firefox would get itself into if it tried to display all 700-odd meg of the iso?
[22:34] <Stryker> or right click the button and say save target as
[22:34] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip: so why no download of a USB image?
[22:34] <gordonjcp> Stryker: you can't do that
[22:34] <Stryker> gordon, you could use a torrent
[22:34] <Stryker> there are torrent files of the iso
[22:34] <malebogia> ActionParsnip: On my way :) BTW: Great multitasking
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010752.asp
[22:34] <gordonjcp> Stryker: the "Download Now" button isn't actually a link, it fires off a weird javascripty thing
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: they make linux drivers for it
[22:35] <Stryker> ah gordonjcp, just use the torrent though
[22:35] <gordonjcp> Stryker: I can't really be bothered installing and configuring a bittorrent client for one thing
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+question/141865

[22:35] <gordonjcp> Stryker: 48 hours
[22:36] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  Oh i know they make them. I have already downloaded the package. and the scanner works with simple scan i just cant get the printer function working
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: I helped someone there, you can copy and paste the command to terminal in any pwd and it will install the driver

[22:37] <metallico> i did change it, now i am looking into the logs
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> metallico: cool

[22:38] <smw> Anyone know what to do if update-grub2 does not find windows?
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> nikin: depends what you are tuning. I find it simple personally but one person's hard is another easy
[22:38] <Stryker> smw, your boot.cfg might be missing from the windows partition
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> smw: try:  sudo apt-get install os-probe; sudo os-probe; sudo update-grub

[22:40] <tahnok> so I just installed cairo-dock to play with it and it enabled something and now I have compositing on my desktop, what on earth did it do?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> gordonjcp: remember to MD5 test
[22:40] <nikin> ActionParsnip: key combos for a lot of things... like Meta+Mouse1 drag for move, and Meta+ Mouse2 for resize. I like a titlebar of 4 pixels :) desktop change on screen edge... etc.
[22:40] <smw> ActionParsnip, no good. I already had it installed, and update did not find windows
[22:40] <Stryker> i agree with ActionParsnip, gordonjcp
[22:40] <gordonjcp> Stryker: I won't be able to install it for a couple of days anyway
[22:41] <gordonjcp> unless unetbootin has magically started working, I'll need to go and find somewhere to get a CD-ROM
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> nikin: i see, can always ask in #openbox for specific help, i don't mess with stuff like that much tbh
[22:41] <r\wWorld> which is the VM with better performance, VMware or VirtualBox ?

[22:42] <nikin> ActionParsnip: i will dump my current installation after i finish my current projects.. and go for lubuntu, and see :)
[22:42] <boozee> JNEK: just hold the ALT key pressed while booting, until you see the boot devices menu (ofcoursce your usb hd needs to be connected)
[22:42] <rumpe1> metallico, deinstall sshd
[22:42] <Stryker> lol i have 40 kb free space
[22:42] <dub54> where is the file that you define NFS access in? something-hosts is it ?
[22:43] <metallico> is it just sshd that could be used for remote connects?
[22:43] <metallico> (by default)
[22:43] <nikin> ActionParsnip: just one more question... does lxdm-s language changer work on a plain lubuntu installation?
[22:43] <[wito]> metallico: AFAIR; not even SSHD is enabled by default.
[22:44] <[wito]> and you rarely see rsh nowayadays, so probably, yeah.\
[22:44] <Moroni> Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I have Windows 7 64 bit installed as a host OS and am using VirtualBox to guest Ubuntu 64 bit.  I can get windows to see my usb drives all the time.  But only SOMETIMES in Ubuntu, and that rarely.
[22:44] <mkanyicy> [wito], you're right
[22:45] <metallico> well, than the best idea really is reinstall everything
[22:45] <[wito]> metallico: But I would suggest you not uninstall SSH; that shit gets handy sometimes.
[22:45] <bullgard4> I did "sudo grub-install --recheck --root-directory= this /dev/sda". Now I obtain: GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu5. Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. And a prompt "grub> _" appears. Before I had the old Grub. How to proceed?
[22:45] <mkanyicy> Moroni, that's a VirtualBox problem
[22:45] <kermit> on a recent dell laptop, is it possible to use touchpad scrollwheel emulation?
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> nikin: not something i've explored, i set EN-GB language and leave it, you could try locale-purge maybe...
[22:46] <[wito]> In fact; I've saved a system more than once by ssh-ing in from a different computer

[22:46] <JNEK> i need some very specific help and i'm not very dextrous with the language of terminal at all, but i'm trying to boot linux from a usb and have installed rEFIt on my macbook. it still says "Non-System Disk" when i boot from Legacy OS or the actual USB drive by holding down the alt key
[22:46] <Bushman> weird... when the BT dongle dies my GIMP quits without saving for some reason when i doubleclick with touchpad (cause BT mouse is down at the time)
[22:46] <Moroni> mkanyic:  thanks!
[22:46] <hairydangler> I am having trouble with wicd I can't obtain an IP address. It is the same situation in konsole.
[22:46] <Bushman> got some errors when run from terminal http://bushman.pastebin.com/7vZa9xEA

[22:46] <ActionParsnip> JNEK: did you MD5 test the ISO you put on the USB?
[22:47] <[wito]> ActionParsnip: Wait, what?
[22:47] <[wito]> People actually do that? ;)
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> [wito]: Yes or they may get issues caused by bad image
[22:47] <JNEK> no i did not. if i were to try and do that i would need some sort of guidance as well. maybe i shouldnt be trying any of this but i'm not very good at it and have primarily been relying on official documentation from ubuntu sight
[22:47] <polaris> Hello guys, Question, has anybody had a problem on randomly disconnecting from the wireless connection ?
[22:48] <polaris> i got a d-link wireless usb pen, and ubuntu 9
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> JNEK: then how did you know the image was healthy and complete!?
[22:48] <mkanyicy> bullgard4, i didn't know you had an old grub
[22:48] <JNEK> well i assumed it would be by following the directions very precisely
[22:48] <[wito]> ActionParsnip: His spidey sense didn't tingle when he made the USB stick. :p
[22:48] <nikin> bullgard4: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub.html maybe here you can find a solution
[22:48] <JNEK> it was on a Sandisk cruzer 8 GB btw
[22:49] <[wito]> JNEK: That really kind of doesn't matter
[22:49] <[wito]> what might be more interesting is: What model MacBook is it?
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> [wito]: its just smart to do, so you know it is good, bad iso will make a bad install
[22:50] <nikin> bullgard4: Super Grub Disk looks like a sollution
[22:50] <JNEK> I know it's Mactel, i got it in the summer, 13 inch 4 gb ram
[22:50] <[wito]> ActionParsnip: I know, I know. I'm just poking fun at JNEK over here.
[22:50] <nit-wit> bullgard4, so you have intalled grub2 when you had grub-legaccy correct?
[22:50] <[wito]> JNEK: What you might want to do is keep Mac OS X on there and run Ubuntu in a virtual machine.
[22:50] <bullgard4> nit-wit: Yes, that is my problem.
[22:50] <nit-wit> bullgard4, your still in the OS?
[22:51] <JNEK> i'm trying to dual boot anyway, i've set up a new partition with boot camp
[22:51] <bullgard4> nit-wit: Yes, I think so.

When I use eSATA I receive the error: You are not privileged to mount the volume XXX. When I have thunar open as ROOT, it automounts. Can someone tell me how to get this working for all users please?
[22:53] <bullgard4> nit-wit: At this moment I am in the installed Maverick.
[22:53] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  Thank you sir. That was greatly appreciated. I just got the printer setup about a week ago and a guy in here just sent me the commands to enter not the link to the documentation so i had no way to save it and when i had to do a clean reinstall I saved the actual packages but couldnt get them all to install. Everything is Working famously now and the link has been saved for future reference. Thank you again.
[22:53] <bindi> YankDownUnder: uh those people seem to have it not working at all
[22:53] <YankDownUnder> bindi, Have you read the entire thread?
[22:53] <bindi> on it
[22:54] <nit-wit> bullgard4, in the terminal run sudo apt-get purge grub grub-pc grub-common the run sudo apt-get install grub   to get the legacy grub back

[22:55] <bindi> YankDownUnder: everything works fine, just that you need to close the lid twice so it hibernates..
[22:55] <YankDownUnder> bindi, The idea is to search the forums - there ARE answers there. Just a matter of reading carefully.
[22:55] <brandon420> who uses rtorrent alot?!
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: NP BRO, I like those Canon drivers (when they exist) as you can give huge commands like that and let them rip :)
[22:55] <bindi> YankDownUnder: well clearly i'm not good at this, surely you can give me a hand
[22:55] <smw> brandon420, me

[22:56] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  what i dont understand is why the US canon website doesnt have linux drivers
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> JNEK: is the MD5 the same?
[22:56] <smw> brandon420, spam away, this is a support channel
[22:56] <brandon420> haha
[22:56] <kheer> ActionParsnip: 1 day?
[22:56] <YankDownUnder> bindi, I've never had your issues, however, when I *do* have issues, I start with the forums first and foremost - then everywhere else if I can't resolve the issue.
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: i just search for 'canon' then click support, then search...
[22:56] <kheer> and 45 what is this?
[22:56] <bindi> YankDownUnder: i did try google :-)
[22:56] <nit-wit> bullgard4, are you in root already, sudo is the standard super user prompt
[22:56] <smw> brandon420, if you have a good reason not to speak here, pm me ;-)
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> kheer: 45 mins maybe, i'm not 100% sure
[22:57] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  Ok thats probably where i screwed up. I went to the Cannon website and then searched drivers
[22:57] <kheer> ActionParsnip but the hour ?
[22:57] <brandon420> smw, to make rtorrent watch a directory, i would change chedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start=./watch/*.torrent to      chedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start= ~/Downloads/*.torrent          right?
[22:57] <brandon420> o/ ActionParsnip
[22:57] <JNEK> ActionParsnip, do you mean the ISO md5 and the .img md5?
[22:57] <bullgard4> nit-wit: I don't know. How to test this? (I am on the 'grub> _' prompt.

[22:59] <bullgard4> nit-wit: I am in a virtuel console.
[22:59] <nit-wit> bullgard4, I didn't look back far enough to see the grub prompt thanks mkanyicy
[22:59] <smw> brandon420, ~ may work, but I do not think so.
[22:59] <surt> ActionParsnip: Yeah, OK, the grammar is wrong but the problem is still there.
[23:00] <smw> ActionParsnip, I think I found the problem. fdisk -l "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary"
[23:00] <roger21> yo, smbody knows a repository having intrepid again ?
[23:00] <nit-wit> bullgard4, the supergrub may be the easiest fix, if you can boot the install you can run the commands I posted, otherwise you will have to chroot in to do it.
[23:01] <nit-wit> bullgard4, chroot from a live cd

[23:02] <roger21> ok i'll try that
[23:02] <bullgard4> nit-wit: What do you mean by "supergrub"? Do you refer to a Live CD having Grub2 on it? I do not have such a CD.
[23:02] <smw> brandon420, maybe there is an error in it?

[23:04] <nit-wit> bullgard4, those commands wont work at the grub prompt they are to be run from a terminal in the ;live desktop
[23:04] <JNEK> ActionParsnip, the hashes match so that wasn't the problem. what should i do now?
[23:04] <bullgard4> nit-wit: So I will boot from a live CD.
[23:05] <nit-wit> bullgard4, installed desktop terminal is where the commands work.
[23:05] <ActionParsnip> JNEK: not sure, i don't use Apple's garbage, the ISO is good so bad data is not causing the issue. Please remember to MD5 test in future
[23:05] <Shards_of_Narsil> any reason ubuntu.com is in chineese?

[23:11] <ActionParsnip> kheer: have you asked in an sql channel?

[23:16] <r000t_laptop> Is there a command that bot does not have?
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> kheer: it might not even be time, that was just my guess
[23:16] <r000t_laptop> !100dollarsoverpaypal | r000t_laptop
[23:16] <Shards_of_Narsil> r000t_laptop: i clicked the download ubuntu image on the front page. it was in english.
[23:16] <surt> ActionParsnip: If you don't know how to fix it, then just say so.
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> surt: your users should be able to mount partitions
[23:16] <Kyle__> With dpkg-reconfigure, how can you get it to use a particular kernel?  In my case i'm trying to recompile a dkms module, but I don't want to the compile the one for the current kernel.
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> surt: i don't know but it is a bug
[23:16] <r000t_laptop> Shards_of_Narsil, You clicked the big banner or the little button that said Download Ubuntu?
[23:17] <Vampyre_Dude> yoo
[23:17] <Shards_of_Narsil> r000t_laptop: the little button
[23:17] <Shards_of_Narsil> i got this page http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[23:17] <ActionParsnip> r000t_laptop: you can search at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[23:17] <r000t_laptop> Shards_of_Narsil, And when did it stop being english?
[23:17] <bencc> does the image viewer deliberately blur images?
[23:17] <Shards_of_Narsil> when i booted the iso
[23:17] <Vampyre_Dude> lol whats up
[23:18] <surt> ActionParsnip: Yes but they can mount partitions, it works as USB. Doesn't that sound like there's probably a configuration file somewhere that just need a quick edit?
[23:18] <Shards_of_Narsil> r000t_laptop: ^
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> surt: then there is an issue of permissionss when mounting partitions on the eSATA
[23:18] <Vampyre_Dude> any one here smoke pot
[23:18] <r000t_laptop> Shards_of_Narsil, I really don't know what's wrong then... seems like you did everything right
[23:18] <thorbj0rn> Shards_of_Narsil: there is a language prompt that comes up immediately upon booting to the CD.
[23:18] <tensorpudding> !ot | Vampyre_Dude
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> surt: the bug will flow like a forum and you can get fixed, it may be a genuine bug
[23:18] <Shards_of_Narsil> thorbj0rn: right, but its weird/retarted
[23:18] <StepNjump> Hi guys, I installed Maverick on my Netbook. It's awsome! great job
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> surt: or it may be a config thing as you say
[23:19] <Shards_of_Narsil> and grub was in chineese
[23:19] <Vampyre_Dude> ohh i c
[23:19] <r000t_laptop> Shards_of_Narsil, Try getting it from BitTorrent. If it downloads fast it's probably the english version, and if you still have problems, I'll Priority Mail you a working CD
[23:19] <ActionParsnip> surt: it may already be a known bug and yuors will be marked as a duplicate but this is fine too
[23:19] <StepNjump> Is anyone familiar with the make command in bash?
[23:19] <surt> ActionParsnip: Alright then, I'll lodge a bug. Thanks mate.
[23:19] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, Under normal circumstances all you need to do is type make and then maybe sudo make install
[23:19] <StepNjump> Oh hi ActionParsnip
[23:19] <StepNjump> long time no see
[23:20] <StepNjump> yes well I tried this for the first time and I get error messages
[23:20] <MrFricks> can anyone tell me how to turn the passwords in ubuntu?!
[23:20] <MrFricks> i hate them!
[23:20] <mkanyicy> kheer, figured it out?
[23:21] <StepNjump> In users & groups MrFricks
[23:21] <botcity> !ot > botcity
[23:21] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, what passwords?
[23:21] <MrFricks> does that turn them off completely for everything?
[23:21] <Jordan_U> mkanyicy: Super GRUB2 Disk is only 1.5 meg and the idea is that it allows you to recover your system by letting you actually boot into your installed system, rather than a separate live environment.
[23:21] <r000t_laptop> Is there any way I can 1) find the MAC address of my router and 2) point a web browser at the MAC address?
[23:22] <thorbj0rn> MrFricks: you want to remove passwords for all users? or are you troubled that you are continually asked to enter a password when you make system changes?
[23:22] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop: if you are looking at your public address, go to whatismyip.com
[23:22] <MrFricks> mkanyicy: everytime i wnt to install or deinstall or change anything i have to enter a pssword
[23:23] <StepNjump> The private IP is usually 192.168.01
[23:23] <StepNjump> 0.1
[23:23] <StepNjump> MrFricks, that's a good thing
[23:23] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, That's the problem. All the other computers can connect to it's IP but I can't
[23:23] <MrFricks> thorbj0rn: i don't want to type in any at all
[23:23] <StepNjump> It protects you from hackers
[23:23] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, what are you using to install, terminal?
[23:23] <rumpe1> MrFricks, then use windows :P
[23:23] <StepNjump> It's a nuisance but it's great against viruses
[23:23] <thorbj0rn> MrFricks: it's called security; it is the same thing that stops you from being infected with nasty virii.
[23:23] <kheer> mkanyicy no i'm not resolved
[23:24] <mkanyicy> kheer, that should be an hour
[23:24] <StepNjump> Is it set for DHCP or static?
[23:24] <MrFricks> thorbj0rn:  i'm not bothered about viruses
[23:24] <StepNjump> MrFricks, just remove the password then
[23:24] <_jay> how do I change my default directory for nautilus? Google is bringing up nada
[23:24] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, All computers are set for DHCP and I've tried with my wireless that has DMZ and I'm currently on ethernet
[23:24] <jrib> _jay: default in what sense?
[23:25] <_jay> as in, the default for my apps to check first
[23:25] <thorbj0rn> MrFricks: from the menu--- System >> Adminstrator >> Users and Groups
[23:25] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop so if you ping your router, do you get a reply?
[23:25] <MrFricks> StepNjump: you can't /... it won't let you.. that's what i'm asking for
[23:25] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, It fails instantly on all browsers. I get a "cannot connect" message from the browser before I even let go of the enter key
[23:25] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, Yes I always get a very fast ping reply
[23:25] <_jay> like, file open then the directory
[23:25] <StepNjump> MrFricks, oh sorry. I was under the impression you could. sorry
[23:25] <[wito]> Turning off password dialogs is a great idea
[23:25] <[wito]> Assuming you are on a whole-disk encrypted machine, not connected to the internet.
[23:25] <slash0mega> how can i get ubuntu to recognize plug and play hardware.
[23:25] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop
[23:26] <StepNjump> You know some routers are weird
[23:26] <MrFricks> StepNjump: i tried but it insists on a pass.. mine's now frickin x
[23:26] <MrFricks> hate it
[23:26] <StepNjump> I know I had that problem at one point and never figured it out, even on DMZ
[23:26] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, This computer has been able to to it before for years.... and other computers can still do it
[23:26] <r000t_laptop> All I know is that at one point I set up IPv6 tunneling
[23:26] <Kyle__> hm
[23:26] <casper__> hi
[23:26] <StepNjump> mmm
[23:27] <Vampyre_Dude> yo supp
[23:27] <thorbj0rn> MrFricks: install windows xp, it is your only hope.
[23:27] <Guest8494> How many programs, in general, is incompatible when selinux is enabled?
[23:27] <StepNjump> Is it a dlink per chance?
[23:27] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, Linksys WRT310N
[23:27] <noah> hey, anyone on?
[23:27] <slash0mega> dose anybody here know how to get ubuntu to install plug and play devices
[23:27] <StepNjump> What about if you ping a website?
[23:27] <StepNjump> do you get a reply?
[23:27] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, what do you want to disable software on?
[23:28] <Kyle__> dpkg-reconfigure help?  Anyone?  Anyone?
[23:28] <StepNjump> or the equivalent of tracert for linux?
[23:28] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, i mean password?
[23:28] <josheee12> are there any equivalent utilities to visualsvn?  it's been hell to set up svn on ubuntu.
[23:28] <thorbj0rn> mkanyicy: he's looking to remove the SUDO password prompt / dialog
[23:29] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, All websites I ping reply quickly. I can also access them
[23:29] <MrFricks> mkanyicy: everything.. i don't want to have to enter a password for anything... not to logon not to install not to anything
[23:29] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop maybe you could try to update your firmware but I doubt this will change anything
[23:29] <r000t_laptop> MrFricks, Log in as root
[23:29] <noah> hey, i just installed some update to ubuntu and when i start it it just shows the ubuntu 10.10 loading screen then jsut goes to a screen with a blinking underscore, any ideas on a fix?
[23:29] <StepNjump> So what's the problem? Sorry
[23:29] <MrFricks> but my permissions are set to root i thin
[23:29] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, How do I update the firmware if I can't get at the web interface?
[23:29] <cryptodan> using your computer logged in as root is a bad idea
[23:29] <r000t_laptop> MrFricks, Just set your password to the space bar
[23:29] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, if you login automatically, you might get keyring prompts
[23:30] <r000t_laptop> CryonicCore, he wants to not use passwords for anything... I think him running as root isn't a giant security leap for him
[23:30] <StepNjump> Oh! you mean you cannot get to your gateway interface?
[23:30] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, you can disable password prompts when using 'sudo'
[23:30] <guest__> hey i'm having problems with my ubuntu software centre can anyone help me?
[23:30] <r000t_laptop> StepNjump, Yeah. Browsers won't load it so I can't get at it. Other computers do, however
[23:30] <MrFricks> rOOOt_laptop: how do i do that? and do i always have to do it?
[23:30] <botcity> slash0mega: ubuntu supports plug an play anyway! if you have a problem then ask.
[23:30] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, open terminal
[23:31] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop well, why don't u just use another computer to do your administrative work ?
[23:31] <MrFricks> r000t_laptop: but i still have to press space!
[23:31] <StepNjump> It's weird though
[23:31] <r000t_laptop> MrFricks, You are obviously trolling.
[23:31] <r000t_laptop> GTFO
[23:31] <StepNjump> lol
[23:31] <tzaeru> mh, any random suggestions for a C++ IDE? Eclipse is a bit slowish, whilest CodeLite would need updated ubuntu (something I don't feel to do quite yet) and Geany has useless project management.
[23:31] <StepNjump> trolling.. you must be uk
[23:31] <r000t_laptop> Serious... you want no passwords for anything.... and there really isn't any reason why
[23:31] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, then run 'sudo visudo' and search for the line that starts with '%admin' and then make sure it is now like '%admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL'
[23:31] <StepNjump> Here is my error I get when I do a make r000t_laptop

[23:32] <MrFricks> r000t_laptop: i like when using a comp for it to just flow.. not be stopped at every corner
[23:32] <StepNjump> r000t_aptop what is ./configure
[23:32] <StepNjump> no

[23:32] <r000t_laptop> MrFricks, Do this to log in as root, open a terminal, type in sudo passwd root
[23:32] <guest__> My Ubuntu Software Centre is having dependency issues that i have no idea how to fix it just keeps saying click repair and then it fails any help?
[23:32] <r000t_laptop> then set a very small password
[23:32] <r000t_laptop> then log into it when you logon
[23:33] <r000t_laptop> you only have to enter the password to log on. I'm not sure about keyrings though
[23:33] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, look at line 22 of pdn.cc, paste it here
[23:33] <r000t_laptop> Though it MIGHT be possible to set an empty password
[23:33] <MrFricks> r000t_laptop: ok i'll try
[23:33] <MrFricks> r000t_laptop: `i tried to set an empty one
[23:33] <thorbj0rn> MrDudle: try mkanyicy's method first, it might get you better results than simply logging in as root.
[23:33] <slash0mega> botcity: strange, it wont detect my blue-tooth dongle...
[23:33] <StepNjump> mkanyicy where is the pdn.cc file located?
[23:34] <MikeMike1> does anyone know how to put videos on your ipod using linux?
[23:34] <StepNjump> Sorry for being so green

[23:34] <Jordan_U> guest__: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get -f install?
[23:35] <guest__> yeah jordan_U one sec
[23:35] <StepNjump> mkanyicy even whereis pdn.cc doesn't work
[23:36] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, what are you trying to do?
[23:36] <[wito]> so I'm looking at this program called wipe
[23:36] <botcity> slash0mega: bluetooth dongle what make?
[23:36] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, try this first 'qmake'
[23:36] <[wito]> if you're bored, have a look at it's man page; it's a right laugh.
[23:36] <guest__> ok i did it on paste bin now just copy and paste in here?
[23:36] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, and then 'make' and then 'sudo make install'
[23:36] <slash0mega> botcity: dont know, it was a 1.50$ one off ebay, but i did get it to work in windows
[23:37] <[wito]> guest__: just the URL, mind you
[23:37] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: '~$ sudo mount -bind /dev /mnt/dev' obtains: "mount: invalid option -- 'b'."  Other Ubuntu machines are also having problems connecting to <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:37] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, yes of course
[23:37] <StepNjump> mkanyicy I don't even have a directory under usr/bin
[23:38] <StepNjump> I did the make
[23:38] <Nach0z> r000t_laptop: My computer connects to <IP_ADDRESS> perfectly well
[23:38] <StepNjump> That seems to have completed without error
[23:38] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, did you do 'qmake' before 'make'
[23:38] <r000t_laptop> Then I'm going to try bouncing the power on the router
[23:38] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: Two of '-' were accepted.
[23:38] <[wito]> Guest8494: I'm guessing that for you, any growth would be quite noticeable, so yeah, probably.
[23:38] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, ok then
[23:38] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, everything ok?
[23:39] <MrFricks> mkanyicy: then what?

[23:40] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, ^^^
[23:40] <slash0mega> is there any way to change wubi duel boot settings, like the time limit and which boot is default
[23:41] <MrFricks> mkanyicy: nano
[23:41] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, this is a Qt project
[23:41] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, you should not do that

[23:42] <thorbj0rn> MrFricks: CTRL-X to close, will prompt to save
[23:42] <guest__> any luck finding my problem?
[23:42] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, you first run 'qmake'

[23:43] <codichulo> anyone know how to fix the "desktop effects could not be enabled" on 10.10 with builtin Intel graphics?

[23:43] <jcollierdavis> I'm trying to connect to several irc from my lan. Always get a"banned" message
[23:44] <mkanyicy> MrFricks, no prob
[23:44] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, your Makefile has can be only written by root, i assume,
[23:44] <StepNjump> r000t_laptop: any success?
[23:44] <StepNjump> I think I'm root
[23:44] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, since you ran sudo make install, now stick to the sudo, so, try 'sudo qmake'
[23:44] <guest__> can someone help me find my problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/563216/
[23:45] <StepNjump> mkanyicy this sudo qmake didn't work either. let me try again
[23:45] <hilarie> !curserhelp me
[23:45] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, not you aren't root
[23:46] <codichulo> anyone know how to fix the "desktop effects could not be enabled" on 10.10 with builtin Intel graphics?
[23:46] <StepNjump> mkanyicy oops might have worked
[23:46] <hilarie> Okay, Halp, my curser just turned into a straight line,
[23:46] <deww> guest__: did you see this http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/broken-apt-get-227042/
[23:46] <thorbj0rn> codichulo: have you checked the " System > Administrator > Additional Drivers " to see if there are 3D drivers available for your chipset?\
[23:46] <StepNjump> Mkanyicy it asked for my root password and then it went back to the prompt $
[23:46] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, now proceed, 'sudo make' and then 'sudo make install'
[23:46] <hilarie> Mouse preferences reveals nothing to me
[23:46] <guest__> no i didn't but i'll check it out thank you
[23:46] <StepNjump> Ok let me check my friend. tnx
[23:46] <codichulo> thorbj0rn: nothing shows in the list
[23:47] <thorbj0rn> codichulo: compiz ( desktop effects ) requires a hardware 3D acceleration.
[23:47] <StepNjump> mkanyicy: here's now what it echos back after I do sudo make install: make: Nothing to be done for `kcheckers.pro'
[23:47] <hilarie> lets see if reboot fixes it, brb
[23:48] <codichulo> thorbj0rn: newb here. laymens terms
[23:48] <leapy0yo> hi
[23:49] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, paste here the exact command that you ran
[23:49] <StepNjump> ok
[23:49] <leapy0yo> xchat does not have ident built in like mirc does, have any of you configured ident for ubuntu?
[23:49] <leapy0yo> is it automatic or can it be
[23:49] <leapy0yo> and secured too
[23:49] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: I did 'sudo apt-get install grub-pc'. I am now in a light-blue ncurses window called 'Package configuration'. and the headline »Configure grub-pc«. It shows a 'Linux command line' which is empty. What should I put in this 'Linux command line'?
[23:49] <botcity> slash0mega:  (Wubi) allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu from within Microsoft Windows . you will have to look into dual booting for any other configuration
[23:49] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Leave it empty.
[23:49] <lexvegas> Anyone have any ideas as to why plymouth would not show the boot splash on either of my dell computers? One is an Inspiron 1545 and the other is an Inspiron 530s Desktop. Two different years, one is 32 bit, the other is 64, but neither show the boot splash. Both are integrated intel graphics. The shutdown splash works fine on both. Any ideas?
[23:50] <thorbj0rn> codichulo: your onboard graphics chip can't handle the 3D.
[23:50] <malebogia> ActionParsnip:No it goes like this :http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=17ae60160895871ecec1401e922deb731e5ff18e although the driver vompiles normally. You can't see it in the report. What's more, after unning alsaconf I get: No supported PnP or PCI card found.   Would you like to probe legacy ISA sound cards/chips?
[23:50] <psusi> leapy0yo, no... ident is a pointless relic from the age of mainframes... I'm surprised there are still irc servers trying to use it
[23:50] <StepNjump> mkanyicy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/563225/
[23:50] <codichulo> thorbj0rn: so i'm SOL ?
[23:51] <mkanyicy> codichulo, try compiz-check script, http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check
[23:51] <Guest13537> тут кто-то по-русски говорит?
[23:51] <thorbj0rn> codichulo: with your current hardware, yes. that doesn't stop you from adding a proper graphics card.
[23:51] <slash0mega> botcity: i am talking about the duel boot thing that came with wubi, so i dont know how to set up any other duel boot software
[23:51] <UberNewbie> Can anyone tell me how to make a dual boot configuration without trashing my host OS?  I want to install ubuntu in another partition or a USB device
[23:52] <Helbom> i just installed a fresh copy of 10.10 and check install updates while installing
[23:52] <botcity> slash0mega: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wubi
[23:52] <Helbom> is there any need for me to do anything in the terminal then?
[23:52] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, just like i thought
[23:52] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, don't put the .pro file with make
[23:52] <Helbom> someone told me i should use update then upgrade
[23:52] <StepNjump> mkanyicy: what does it mean?\
[23:52] <psusi> UberNewbie, then chose the side by side option when installing
[23:52] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, 'sudo make'
[23:52] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, exactly like that
[23:53] <StepNjump> sudo make and that's it? or it has to be followed by the file name?
[23:53] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, and then 'sudo make install'
[23:53] <StepNjump> without the extension?
[23:53] <mkanyicy> StepNjump, exactly like that
[23:53] <Jordan_U> UberNewbie: It's fairly straightforward if you just follow the directions during install.
[23:53] <StepNjump> oh!
[23:53] <StepNjump> really!
[23:53] <StepNjump> let me see
[23:53] <guest__> ok that link helped thanks alot guys
[23:53] <BlueBomber7> !enter | StepNjump
[23:54] <UberNewbie> psusi:  and Jordan_U:  I didn't see that option when I was installing it in a VB
[23:54] <Jordan_U> UberNewbie: VB?
[23:54] <psusi> UberNewbie, probably because you didn't have anything to install beside.
[23:54] <botcity> slash0mega: also this may help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[23:54] <yahooru> hi all
[23:54] <UberNewbie> Jordan_U:  VirtualBox
[23:54] <Jordan_U> UberNewbie: If you don't have an already installed OS then you won't see any option to install beside your already installed OS :)
[23:55] <codichulo> cool. thanx thorbj0rn & mkanyicy
[23:55] <StepNjump> guys I don't use the enter as a punctuation. Sorry if all my ideas don't come to me right away. I will try to be less naughty in the future
[23:55] <StepNjump> mkanyicy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/563227/
[23:55] <slash0mega> botcity: about the duel boot. so if i want to change the setting, i have to change the windows boot loader right?
[23:56] <H3r0> can someone help me?I don't know why the ppa of wine isn't update to the newest version
[23:56] <Lcawte> I'm running ntp.d to manage my time... but it keeps falling 10 minutes out of sync.. (I've ntpdated to check it a few times).... my config... http://pastebin.com/c7Bb6832 (etc/ntp.conf
[23:56] <UberNewbie> I see.  So can I force the side by side install somehow if I boot into Ubuntu from a DVD
[23:56] <Jordan_U> UberNewbie: What do you mean by "force"?
[23:57] <hobbes> hi
[23:57] <UberNewbie> Jordan_U:  are there any special instructions that I don't know about that would allow me to do what I want?
[23:57] <[wito]> So I have full-disk encryption set up on my rig; no biggie, installer does it for me.
[23:57] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: The ncurses window »Configure grub-pc« asks me now: "Select which devices you'd like grub-install to be automatically run for." I do not understand the English verb "to run for". It offers to select as »GRUB install devices« i.) /dev/sda and/or /dev/sda6 (my Linux root partition). Which one(s) should I select?
[23:58] <H3r0> can someone help me?I don't know why the ppa of wine isn't update to the newest version
[23:58] <root__> wsup?
[23:58] <Lcawte> Any ideas?
[23:58] <[wito]> question is: I have a couple of companion USB sticks for this box; how would I go about setting them up with a similar scheme?
[23:58] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Only /dev/sda
[23:58] <root__> how ican remove erorr 132 on backtrack4 r2
[23:58] <botcity> slash0mega:  i have never used wubi but that appears to be the case from the text in the doc i sent you ..
[23:59] <[wito]> As in, they are encrypted, but as I go to mount; they are automatically decrypted on the fly as extensions of the full disk encryption thing I've got going.
[23:59] <slash0mega> botcity: i see. anyhow, i am off to trouble shoot. thank you so much for the links and help
[23:59] <DasEi> H3r0: wine 1.2.2 I've got here
[23:59] <root__> about backtrack 4
[23:59] <hobbes> Is there a way with unetbootin or other methods of making bootable flash drives, where I can download the ISO directly to the flash drive?
[23:59] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: The english phrase effectively means that the grub-pc packaging will do: for device in $selected_install_devices; do grub-install $device; done
[23:59] <botcity> :-)
[23:59] <frotzed> hello all
