[14:30] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: did you try a hotspot on same card, are card drivers installed?
[14:30] <edbian> daGrevis: (it is not there) Does the device show up in lsusb  ?  (this one is shorter)
[14:30] <Skaperen> oCean: sorry, you are not being clear or maybe you didn't understand the question?  how can we speed this up?
[14:30] <cybervolfe> ikonia:oh my god ,what would i do ,i have intstalled backtrack in my system thats true
[14:30] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: there aren't any hotspots around I can try and yeah the card drivers are installed...I think
[14:30] <mrk1> edbian thank you it worked and i understand it much better now
[14:30] <edbian> mrk1: awesome :)
[14:30] <nezZario> Hey
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: might be that ubuntu is not the reason you can connect to it...
[14:31] <lotuspsychje> cant
[14:31] <cybervolfe> ikonia:but now i am using ubuntu 10.04 for god's sake
[14:31] <ikonia> cybervolfe: ok, so if your using backtrack, the best place and correct place to ask in #backtrack-linux there are some good guys there
[14:31] <nezZario> how can I get src/recompile when most of the fs is read only?
[14:31] <ikonia> nezZario: you don't
[14:31] <ikonia> nezZario: what do you want to build
[14:31] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: yeah my network owner was fiddling with the IP addresses the other day so I think that's maybe it
[14:31] <daGrevis> edbian, ye, i do shows up in lsusb.
[14:32] <daGrevis> *show
[14:32] <nezZario> ikonia: fs/ufs/ufs.ko
[14:32] <nezZario> you can't do it with the silly 'headers only'
[14:32] <ikonia> nezZario: the ufs kernel module is already included I believe ?
[14:32] <edbian> daGrevis: what is the output of sudo lsmod | grep rt28    ?
[14:32] <nezZario> ikonia not with write support
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> brb reboot
[14:33] <cinnabar12> does anybody else have any suggestions on getting the rt3090 wireless card working?
[14:33] <cybervolfe> ikonia:please man my internet connection is getting disconnected automatically in ubuntu 10.04
[14:33] <ikonia> nezZario: that's experimental and I assure you doesn't work, I've tried it a good few times
[14:33] <nezZario> ugh
[14:33] <cybervolfe> ikonia:help me:-(
[14:33] <nezZario> typical linux
[14:33] <ikonia> cybervolfe: sorry, I'm busy helping in #backtrack-linux
[14:35] <cybervolfe> ikonia:u got the os as backtrack because i am booting ubuntu using the backtrack's grub
[14:35] <ikonia> cybervolfe: pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get update" please
[14:39] <cinnabar12> anyone else got any ideas on how to get an rt3090 wireless card working?
[14:39] <daGrevis> edbian, give a a sec.
[14:39] <edbian> daGrevis: sure
[14:40] <rawfodog> Is there a way to find a string in a haystack of files in a folder ? I have about 40 txt files and I'm looking for part of a string.
[14:40] <nocilis> ikonia and edbian? you guys are the administrators/moderators?
[14:40] <Krenair> Running Ubuntu 10.04 with the default Gnome desktop environment. Was wondering if I could set it up to swap between desktop backgrounds every few minutes?
[14:40] <exutux> rawfodog: man grep
[14:40] <nocilis> and yes, rawfodog
[14:40] <edbian> nocilis: ha, no but thanks for the compliment
[14:40] <edbian> nick_h: I just help a lot
[14:40] <rawfodog> How do I grep a folder
[14:40] <ikonia> nocilis: if you need someone try #ubuntu-ops
[14:40] <bumsleng> ау есть русскоговорящие?
[14:40] <puzzones> in whitch place put the files delete ubuntu?
[14:40] <nocilis> grep [foldername]/* -e "[string you are looking for]" -l
[14:40] <rawfodog> sweet thanks
[14:41] <nocilis> replace the stuff in brackets (and the brackets too) with the apropriate information
[14:41] <puzzones> i delete hide files but i few space again
[14:41] <daGrevis> edbian, it gives me nothing. ;(
[14:41] <nocilis> rawfodog: are they all in one folder or are they several folders deep?
[14:41] <edbian> daGrevis: I was afraid of that.  Hang on
[14:42] <szal> !it | puzzones, in case you didn't know
[14:42] <edbian> daGrevis: Can you sudo modprobe rt2800usb
[14:42] <nocilis> because then add -r to the end of the command to make it a recursive grep rawfodog
[14:42] <daGrevis> edbian, sure
[14:42] <nocilis> ikonia i don't need anyone, you guys just seem like THE awesome ubuntu/linux ninja wizard people
[14:42] <edbian> daGrevis: then do sudo lsmod | grep rt28  and see if it returns something (it should now)
[14:43] <nocilis> edbian you've helped me several times in the past
[14:43] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Keyring: "GNOME Keyring is a daemon application designed to take care of the user's security credentials, such as user names and passwords. The sensitive data is encrypted and stored in a keyring file in the user's home folder." What is the name of this file in Natty?
[14:43] <rawfodog> thanks it worked great :D
[14:43] <edbian> nocilis: Oh good :)
[14:43] <cybervolfe> ikonia:here is the url http://paste.org/pastebin/view/36173
[14:43] <nocilis> rawfodog no problem
[14:43] <daGrevis> edbian, k. but 2800 wasnt for v1? i have v2 and the numbers are different.
[14:43] <cinnabar12> Krenair: perhaps this may help? http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/06/crebs-wallpaper-slideshow-generator-gets-a-ppa-new-features/
[14:43] <effeietsanders> hello all. A computer here with Ubuntu 9/10 point something ends up in grub but whatever choice I make, it gives the error "target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init. No init found, try passing init= bootarg" and then goes to busybox
[14:44] <daGrevis> u see, there r two versions of my stick. and i have v2.
[14:44] <bsmith093> bullgard4: i think its called secring in .gnupg folder,
[14:44] <effeietsanders> I have a livedisk Ubuntu 6.6, and tried to unmount, but that doesn't do the magic...
[14:44] <edbian> daGrevis: This website is the most up to date most reliable source:  http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices/USB
[14:44] <bullgard4> bsmith093: And not pubring.gpg?
[14:44] <edbian> daGrevis: It lists rt2800usb for all versions (it's for down on the list)
[14:45] <effeietsanders> would anyone have an idea how to tackle this issue with booting?
[14:45] <bsmith093> bullgard4: possibly, im not entirely sure
[14:45] <puzzones> szal, what i dunno?
[14:45] <bullgard4> bsmith093: Ok.
[14:45] <nocilis> effeietsanders: I had a similar problem that was maybe even the same thing
[14:45] <bazhang> effeietsanders, 6.06?
[14:45] <bsmith093> check with the others, theyll know
[14:45] <nocilis> effeietsanders: couldn't find a solution anywhere
[14:45] <effeietsanders> bazhang: yes, 10.10 gave another error
[14:45] <Krenair> cinnabar12, exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot.
[14:45] <effeietsanders> nocilis: I found many solutions :) none worked so far
[14:45] <bazhang> effeietsanders, try 11.04 or something else supported
[14:46] <cinnabar12> Krenair: no problem :-)
[14:46] <cybervolfe> ikonia:now u believe
[14:46] <nocilis> effeietsanders: if you want to try getting the files off try booting into a livecd/liveusb and mounting the filesystem
[14:46] <llutz_> bullgard4: pubring.gpg holds your public gpg-keys, secring the secure-keys
[14:46] <effeietsanders> bazhang: The live disk is mainly helpful to run a terminal and fix issues, not to install :)
[14:46] <nocilis> effeietsanders: exactly
[14:46] <ikonia> cybervolfe: truthfully no, but there maybe others in the channel that do
[14:47] <nocilis> effeietsanders: what exactly is it you are trying to do?
[14:47] <bullgard4> llutz_: And which one is wikipedia referring to?
[14:47] <Axelaxel12> Hello there
[14:47] <llutz_> bullgard4: checked: ~/.gnome2/keyrings/default.keyring?
[14:47] <effeietsanders> nocilis: I'm trying to fix it - if that is realistic
[14:47] <daGrevis> edbian, http://paste.ubuntu.com/645417/
[14:47] <llutz_> bullgard4: or: ~/.gnome2/keyrings/*
[14:47] <Mendishon> auth
[14:47] <nocilis> effeietsanders: hmm not sure how you'd do that
[14:48] <cinnabar12> anyone know how to get a rt3090 wireless card working?
[14:48] <cybervolfe> ikonia:hey i need the solution what do i do to make u believe me?
[14:48] <edbian> daGrevis: can you get on a wifi network?
[14:48] <effeietsanders> nocilis: i found several posts online who say they fixed it with gparted
[14:48] <M4d3L> hi. what is the command to check partition usage
[14:48] <effeietsanders> but it seems that the 6.6 version of gparted doesn't have the "check" option that is needed
[14:49] <szal> puzzones: that there is an Italian channel..  your English is a sight for sore eyes, so you might get better help there
[14:49] <qin> M4d3L: df -h
[14:49] <effeietsanders> so if someone could help me with doing that through the terminal...
[14:49] <nocilis> effeietsanders: yeah I can't help, sorry
[14:49] <bullgard4> llutz_: I had a look into the directory ~/.gnome2/keyrings the other day. This did not answer the question which I have put here today.
[14:49] <bazhang> effeietsanders, get the gparted live cd iso
[14:49] <bazhang> effeietsanders, 60mb dl
[14:50] <daGrevis> edbian, u mean.. connect? before i saw that there r no firmware for it. then i compile drivers, add something to blacklist and other stuff (not sure) - as said in that tut. and then it didnt show that there are no firmware. i can see all networks and when i try to connect my network... it asks for psw. i enter it... it tries to connect and after few minutes it ask for psw again.
[14:50] <M4d3L> I have 390go use on my /home, I try to figure what folder take all that space
[14:50] <qin> M4d3L: du -sh ~/*
[14:50] <edbian> daGrevis: That is the state of things right now?  You're confusing me a bit.
[14:50] <effeietsanders> bazhang: then how should I use that/
[14:51] <daGrevis> edbian, ask me if you arent clear about something. i will try to explain.
[14:51] <Axelaxel12> Hey, my friend need some help, he wanna know if his system is 32 or 64 bits
[14:51] <Axelaxel12> It's Focusyn
[14:51] <Axelaxel12> Please, somebody can help?
[14:51] <edbian> daGrevis: Are you getting errors about missing firmware right now?
[14:51] <ikonia> Axelaxel12: look at the output of uname -m
[14:51] <bazhang> effeietsanders, you said the 6.06 version did not have what you need for gparted, get the latest one then 60mb dl live cd iso
[14:52] <daGrevis> edbian, no. all seems to be working. just i cant connect to my network.
[14:52] <Focusyn> espera Axelaxel12 se han despertado en el otro canal
[14:52] <Axelaxel12> ok
[14:52] <Focusyn> pruebo lo que me dicen ahi
[14:52] <cinnabar12> anyone know how to get an rt3090 wireless card to work?
[14:52] <Axelaxel12> Well, thanks for the help ikonia
[14:52] <edbian> daGrevis: alright hang on a second...
[14:52] <daGrevis> edbian, sure.
[14:53] <edbian> daGrevis: What is your card listed as in lsusb ?
[14:53] <exutux> M4d3L: du -a /home/$USER | sort -nr | head -n 10   gives you 10 biggest dir on your home
[14:54] <GeekMan> ubuntu 10.04.2 Hi im trying to backup my server: I want to run somthing like cron to backup via rsync every month. I also need a script or somthing that runs to turn off a program called hamchi and then wait until rsync finishes to turn the program back on.
[14:54] <lietu> any ideas why my wlanhas an awfully unstable latency on my linux mint on a mac mini? .. the latency on the wlan itself should be fine, I tested with several other wireless client devices and they get a stable <10ms ping just fine, but the mac mini gets a highly unstable ping generally around 300-1500ms, but moves around 5-3000ms... all tested clients were within ~30cm of eachother, distance to router <1m
[14:54] <sktn07> My usb not supporting
[14:54] <sktn07> i use ubuntu 9.10
[14:54] <bazhang> lietu, try the mint support channel, its not supported here
[14:54] <daniel_HU> hi guys
[14:54] <ikonia> GeekMan: there are plenty of example rsync scripts on the net that can be modified
[14:54] <ikonia> sktn07: 9.10 is end of life, you may wish to consider upgrading
[14:55] <daniel_HU> I have a question about ssh/scp
[14:55] <lietu> erm, mint is basically ubuntu anyways, shouldn't make much difference
[14:55] <bazhang> !mintsupport | lietu
[14:55] <bazhang> lietu, its not.
[14:55] <dvdr> gnome system monitor shows my cpu being chewed up (100% use) and that pulseaudio is using 86% of that... Ive got dual cpus and everything else seems to run fine, just pulseaudio gets really greedy when I play video... any ideas?
[14:55] <LukaszPoznan> tell me, what is the command for running tomboy. I will put it into the startup applications
[14:55] <GeekMan> ikonia: i found those but i need to make a script that checks for process like rsync what whould i look for
[14:55] <leman> salut
[14:55] <puwei> i have a long question , my i past it  here
[14:55] <llutz_> GeekMan: look at rsnapshot

[14:55] <maxagaz> how to switch off a server (samba) ?
[14:55] <maxagaz> a service
[14:55] <puwei> i have a long question , may i past it  here
[14:55] <bazhang> leman, #ubuntu-fr for french please
[14:56] <sktn07> ikonia: unless upgrading is there any other way ?
[14:56] <ikonia> GeekMan: get your rsync job to touch a file when it starts, and remove it when it ends, then just do an if -f [ lockfile ] exit
[14:56] <daniel_HU> is it possible somehow to route files over ssh between three server? I mean that there is a server which copies files between two others?
[14:56] <puwei> sorry for this .
[14:56] <puwei> i have a long question  so i split it in lines.
[14:56] <puwei> my pc1 have two netcard  eth0(<IP_ADDRESS>) wlan0(<IP_ADDRESS>)
[14:56] <puwei> and i setup a VPN server in my pc1
[14:56] <puwei> use another pc2 (<IP_ADDRESS>) connect to pc1 thogh VPN
[14:56] <puwei> now the VPN connect works allright,
[14:56] <FloodBot1> puwei: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:56] <nocilis> LukaszPoznan, tomboy
[14:56] <ikonia> sktn07: the OS isn't supported so I don't see any point in wasting time trying to fix something that's dead
[14:56] <leman> why we can off plymouth on ubuntu 11.04 plz at startup for watch terminal
[14:56] <leman> ?
[14:56] <bazhang> !nox | leman

[14:59] <nocilis> u bet
[15:00] <edbian> daGrevis: run dmesg and look at the last 20 or so lines.  Does it say anything about missing firmware ?
[15:01] <crackerjackz> oCean, do you have IRC logs?
[15:01] <bazhang> !1984 | crackerjackz

[15:01] <szal> 1984?  lol..
[15:01] <bazhang> :)
[15:02] <stercor> Dr_Willis: Is there a workaround using the keyboard for the frozen mouse?
[15:02] <edbian> daGrevis: I'm not really sure why that driver isn't working.  The site I linked does not list any documenation so I'm guessing the driver is incomplete.  Have a look at rt2x00 it's some graphical tool for the driver we modprobed.  If you restart the machine it will be back to how it was before I ran any commands. All we did was insert the rt2800 module and look around a bit.
[15:02] <edbian> I'm not sure what else to do here! :(
[15:02] <szal> avinashhm: did you run 'sudo apt-get update' before installing?
[15:03] <rsevero> cinnabar12: welcome to wireless hell (are you dealing with a old notebook also?)
[15:03] <avinashhm> szal, nope .. didn't run apt-get update .. i don't want to update kernel and all .. i am fine with those .. only want to install vlc ..
[15:03] <Sidewinder1> sktn07, Perhaps this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#Why%20choosing%20a%20fresh%20install
[15:03] <tew88> Hoping someone can help. Fairly new to Linux in general and am giving Ubuntu a try on my netbook. When I click to connect to a wireless network (after having entered the password), the desktop cuts out and the screen is filled with instead with text that refer to many different error codes (I'm guessing they're error codes). Any suggestions?
[15:03] <daGrevis> edbian, gere r full output I got from dmesg. it seems that there arent a lot of drivers... ;( i really appreciate ur help... http://paste.ubuntu.com/645425/
[15:03] <tew88> It's an Asus EEE 1001P
[15:04] <rsevero> I'm having problems with a wireless Atheros AR2413 that won't complete activation because "association took to long". Any ideas on how to fix this?
[15:04] <szal> avinashhm: you seem not to know the difference between 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade'..
[15:04] <edbian> daGrevis: whoa, those are all your radion driver freaking out.
[15:04] <rsevero> cinnabar12: What's your problem exactly?
[15:04] <edbian> daGrevis: It's incomplete so not very useful
[15:04] <daGrevis> edbian, im glad that it isnt my linksys.. =D
[15:05] <daGrevis> edbian, its all that i got from that cmd. or no?
[15:05] <avinashhm> szal, ok .. got it actually .. its only for apt / pkg utility .. ll update and then try .. thanks man ..
[15:05] <edbian> daGrevis: Ahh, it's probably left over from last time it happened.  How did you get your graphics back after it freaked out?
[15:06] <avinashhm> szal, thanks man .. this works like charm ..
[15:06] <daGrevis> edbian, last time? i installed linux today.
[15:06] <edbian> daGrevis: Last time that the grahpics freaked
[15:07] <daGrevis> edbian, hmm. i just unplugged computer from electricity. and thats all. all seems to worked.
[15:07] <edbian> daGrevis: what?
[15:09] <daGrevis> edbian, my computers screen wnt like in these images... http://askubuntu.com/questions/53327/screen-is-going-crazy-after-connecting-to-wi-fi-network and then i just plugged out my computer from electricity.
[15:09] <edbian> daGrevis: So it worked fine on battery power?
[15:09] <avinashhm> Hi , i have installed standard vlc in ubuntu .. when i open a file , it plays for like 5 seconds and then closes down .. .this was working fine a week back and started like this today .. re installed it, but didn't help .. is there any way to get log when i launch vlc ?
[15:10] <Alternative> it.net
[15:10] <PuffTMD> Hey all
[15:10] <alan_> hello
[15:10] <daGrevis> edbian, what battery power? its desktop. not laptop. i plugged out it and it shutted down. no electicity - its off. then i plugged electricity again and all worked.
[15:10] <PuffTMD> anyone using komodo
[15:10] <PuffTMD> ?
[15:10] <Algorith> first run it from the terminal and see if anything interested pops up
[15:11] <edbian> daGrevis: I'm not sure what the problem is then :(
[15:11] <edbian> Sorry!
[15:11] <daGrevis> edbian, maybe its ebecause of 64 bits I have? in that topic... they say that it works only wth 32 bits. What do u think?
[15:12] <BluesKaj> avinashhm, what kind of file /
[15:12] <edbian> daGrevis: That sounds extremely likely to me
[15:12] <avinashhm> BluesKaj, both mp3 as well as AVI file ..
[15:13] <daGrevis> edbian, i dont like out-dated architetures, but I wiould better use 32 bits linux then 64 bits windoze. ;(
[15:13] <avinashhm> BluesKaj, if it helps mp3 logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/645426/
[15:13] <BluesKaj> avinashhm, what about other media players
[15:13] <ikonia> daGrevis: it's called Windows
[15:13] <goetter> Anyone know why my two ubuntu boxes can't see each other's avahi services? Tcpdump shows one host sending the port 5353 multicast, but the other host's tcpdump does not show it receiving it.
[15:13] <goetter> the other direction, however, shows normally in tcpdump
[15:13] <dvdr> on ubuntu 11.04, pulseaudio is chewing up to 86% of my cpu... any ideas why or how to fix it?
[15:13] <daGrevis> ikonia, yes. i know. whatever. actually
[15:14] <avinashhm> BluesKaj, totem works like charm .. if u want i can collect logs
[15:14] <pickels> My laptop(Thinkpad t520) has been randomly freezing since I installed Ubuntu 11.04. What's the best course of action to find out what is causing this?
[15:14] <entropy> i only have the file-help panels. i tryed this link and it didnt work. can someone please tell me how to get my application and system panels working again.
[15:14] <entropy> http://www.watchingthenet.com/restore-panels-in-ubuntu-back-to-their-default-settings.html
[15:14] <ikonia> goetter: that sounds like either a firewall or routing
[15:14] <goetter> Both on the same switch though :/
[15:14] <edbian> daGrevis: 32 bits isn't outdated yet!

[15:14] <tew88> When trying to connect to the wireless, the screen goes black with lots of text and the last error to appear on the screen is "panic occurred, switching back to text console". Any suggestions? It's an Asus 1001P netbook.

[15:30] <sadi> Can any one solve it
[15:30] <edbian> sadi: What si the problem?
[15:30] <bazhang> sadi, this is ubuntu support
[15:30] <Dr_Willis> its easier to just ask the problem at the beginning... :)
[15:30] <llutz_> !enter | sadi
[15:30] <nezZario> wtf ?
[15:30] <ehnde> can you guys recommend any really addictive free games that are multiplayer and run natively on ubuntu?
[15:31] <Dr_Willis> ehnde:  freeciv, freecom, wesnoth,

[15:31] <nezZario> CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE=y .. if I was compiling a kernel module where would I put this to pass the option to the module?
[15:31] <bazhang> sadi, debian?
[15:31] <edbian> bazhang: typo on my name.
[15:31] <ikonia> nezZario: you don't that would compile it into the kernel - you want a module, not built in
[15:31] <Dr_Willis> ehnde:  if you like the old sid meirs gaames - civilization and colonazation :) they are great.  also  ported to windows i belive
[15:32] <sadi> My laptop model is HP Compaq presario CQ42 i386

[15:32] <sadi> I also update my alsa

[15:32] <sadi> na i use ubuntu 10.04 lts edition

[15:33] <Socky_> Hey guys, I built rtorrent from source so I could have the color options, but every time i do an apt-get upgrade it breaks, and seems to go back to the version that doesnt support colors.  Is there a way I can tell apt-get upgrade to exclude rtorent?
[15:34] <edbian> Socky_: sudo apt-get remove rtorrent
[15:34] <bazhang> !pinning | Socky_ this?
[15:34] <Socky_> k, ill try
[15:34] <Socky_> thanks
[15:34] <sadi> Im using ubuntu 10.04 n got updated ma alsa but till now it dont got sound.Ma lappy model is HP compaq presario cq 42 n its intel based
[15:35] <edbian> Socky_: When you compile from source and install one of things it does it put a file called rtorrent in /usr/local/bin/  and you install using the package manager it replaces that file with one of the exact same name without your customization in there /usr/bin.  This conflicts with the name 'rtorrent'  So you have to tell the package manager to butt out.
[15:35] <sadi> bt if i add headphone got the sound
[15:35] <bullgard4> !sound | sadi
[15:36] <obert_> hmf
[15:36] <sadi> ubottu thanks dude :)
[15:37] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: it worked like oCean said creating /var/log/general.log entries to 50-default.conf, so now it creates all the seperate logs in 1 file so i can colortail it :p
[15:37] <shah_> Hi Guys,
[15:37] <shah_> I am trying to connect Dell BH-200 blue-tooth headset with Lenovo Thinkpad T410 on Ubuntu 11.04 Studio version. It detects device and connect but after 5-10 sec. headset get switch-off. I followed several forums but it doesn't work at all. Could you please suggest.
[15:37] <shah_> Thanks,

[15:37] <FloodBot1> shah_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[15:37] <sadi> But I already done maximum of them n now think that need help frm developers
[15:38] <ikonia> shah_: why dont you use the official instructions instead of random 3rd party sites
[15:38] <ikonia> !skype > shah_
[15:38] <dli> sadi, you get sound from headphone, but not from speakers?
[15:38] <sadi> yap dill
[15:39] <sadi> N also update ma alsa too :( dill
[15:39] <dli> sadi, first,  check settings in alsamixer, or pavucontrol (if you are using pulse)
[15:39] <BDR> Hi guys
[15:40] <mrdozo> yoo
[15:40] <dli> sadi, also, remember to troubleshoot sound problem is never straight forward
[15:40] <BDR> Ok, so thanks for the help the other day, but trouble is I still can't get online with my computer
[15:40] <edbian> BDR.  hi
[15:40] <dli> BDR, wifi?
[15:40] <BDR> edbian: hey
[15:40] <BDR> dli: Wireless, yes.
[15:41] <edbian> BDR What card do you have?
[15:41] <zaxius> i have 10.04 and i want to upgrade to 11.04.  it should show up in the update manager, right?  even after i checked "show normal releases" i still don't see it.
[15:41] <edbian> zaxius: sudo apt-get update first maybe?
[15:41] <sadi> dli I already checked my alsamixer there that got my sound card but why it didnt work at my speker ??
[15:41] <BDR> edbian: It's an Intersil 3886 but the adapter is working fine (as in Linux recognizes it and can use it to detect wireless networks)
[15:41] <edbian> zaxius: It should show up after you do that.
[15:41] <dli> zaxius, what about: sudo do-release-update
[15:41] <zaxius> actually, now i see 10.10.  do i have to get 10.10, then 11.04?
[15:41] <lotuspsychje> anyone knows why themes changes on natty boot?
[15:41] <szal> zaxius: supported upgrade path is from 10.04 to 10.10 to 11.04
[15:41] <edbian> BDR: Then what is the issue?
[15:42] <zaxius> ah got it
[15:42] <zaxius> thanks guys
[15:42] <BDR> edbian: it just can't connect to the router/modem combo
[15:42] <sadi> dli : it works on my headphone
[15:42] <dli> sadi, volume muting for speakers and headphone is different
[15:42] <edbian> BDR: try to connect then pastebin the output of dmesg   is that possible ?
[15:42] <simo_> hi can someone please help me? I am trying to check 2 SSDs for errors, I am using Ubuntu Live CD
[15:42] <dli> sadi, just confirm you unmute everything, and increase volume everything
[15:43] <dli> sadi, also, make sure you have no pulseaudio running
[15:43] <BDR> edbian: I'm not running Linux on the computer I'm chatting with and I can't get online with the computer I'm trying to fix.
[15:43] <sadi> dli, how could i unmutie that speaker
[15:43] <ikonia> simo_: why do you think they have errors
[15:43] <lotuspsychje> simo_:whats the problem with your ssd's?
[15:43] <BDR> edbian: so I doubt it
[15:43] <sadi> dli, I've done that by alsamixer
[15:43] <sadi> but still have problem
[15:43] <dli> BDR, the only problem is connection between router and your computer, right?
[15:44] <edbian> BDR: Alright. Do what i said and just manually read the last 20 lines or so and dmesg.  See if it says anything about hte connection (it probably will)
[15:44] <edbian> dli: yes, wifi networks show up for him)
[15:44] <dli> edbian, what encryption?
[15:44] <simo_> My pc restarts quite often, I checked the ram for errors but found nothing. I suspect it's the SSDs.
[15:44] <edbian> dli: IDK
[15:44] <sadi> dli, If I use mint 10 or ubuntu 10.10 then I got sound from ma speaker
[15:44] <dli> BDR, what encrption?
[15:44] <ikonia> simo_: I suspect it's not, as if it was you'd get errors
[15:44] <lotuspsychje> simo_:on natty?
[15:45] <ikonia> simo_: is the PC just hard resetting ?
[15:45] <sadi> dli, what should I do now??
[15:45] <edbian> BDR: turning off encryption temporarily is a good starting place
[15:45] <dli> sadi, so, it's nothing to do with hardware
[15:45] <vikapi> Amarok is sad..
[15:45] <dli> sadi, can you stop pulseaudio by something like: sudo killall pulseaudio, or pkill -9 pulseaudio
[15:46] <simo_> lotuspsychje yea I'm on 11.04
[15:46] <sadi> not
[15:46] <lotuspsychje> simo_: did you check on ubuntu logs for errors?
[15:46] <simo_> ikonia I think it is hard resetting.
[15:46] <sadi> dli no nt at all
[15:46] <ikonia> simo_: ok, so it's very very very unlikley it's a disk problem
[15:47] <dli> sadi, what not?
[15:47] <sadi> dli, I didn't kill pulseaudio
[15:47] <BDR> edbian: I'll try turning off encryption - 'dmesg' got a lot of try time outs in the last 20 lines
[15:48] <simo_> lotusspychje no i didn't check ubuntu log, i don't know how to, btw i was using Windows
[15:48] <dli> BDR, disable encryption at the router end
[15:48] <edbian> BDR: That's a bit vague.  Yes try turning encryption off
[15:48] <jig> hi
[15:49] <jig> I can't install ubuntu on laptop, have tried 4 cds
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> simo_:like ikonia sais i also dont think its ssd thats broken...i would go for bios and check cpu temperature
[15:49] <simo_> ikonia, i thought hard resetting was only done manually?
[15:49] <dli> jig, can you try USB?
[15:49] <edbian> jig: what happens?
[15:49] <ikonia> simo_: no,
[15:49] <jig> no laptop doesn't recognize boot usb
[15:49] <jig> I tried ubuntu regular, alternate, xubuntu alternate, and minimal
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> simo_:did you have those resets on natty too instead of windows?
[15:50] <jig> everything it sort of freezes at the boot menu, the keyboard doesn't work
[15:50] <dli> jig, make sure you verify the data when burning CD
[15:50] <WebUser0618> test
[15:50] <sadi> dli, are you a developer?? could you please give me any module for that speaker??My speaker is from ALTEC LANSING
[15:50] <simo_> lotuspsychje, I was just gonna say that, nope ubuntu live cd runs perfect
[15:50] <dli> jig, BTW, grub2 supports USB booting by default, even if your BIOS doesn't support USB booting
[15:50] <Mamed> what dose it mean when it says ibus failed?
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> simo_: pc reboots does come from corrupt windows lol...
[15:51] <Chillance> so, Im using x11vnc, and managed to get the nvidia drivers to load by faking a screen by using Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT" in the "Device" for the nvidia.. works fine. However, I only get 800x600 resolution! How can I increase this? (yes, I want to avoid having a real monitor connected)
[15:51] <jig> what can I do? the keyboard acts dead at the boot menu every time
[15:51] <Chillance> I tried adding modes for the "Screen" but didnt work
[15:51] <Mamed> i had trouble with unity so i reset it but now Ctrl+Alt+T donsnt work nor does Alt+F2
[15:52] <dli> sadi, if you can get sound from headphone, alsa works already, the problem is control, not driver
[15:52] <lucidguy> Can anyone recommend a webhosting company that does NOT use cpanel.  I want a plane jane virtual server that I configure myself.
[15:52] <sadi> I heard that in alsa <IP_ADDRESS> it make problem with ALTEC speaker
[15:52] <simo_> lotuspsychje Yea I am aware of that and that is why I formatted my SSD (RAID 0) and installed WIn again, the prob is still there
[15:53] <jig> is there a boot cd that doesn't have a splash screen? I think maybe my graphics card is screwing it up
[15:53] <dli> jig, if it's an option, take the hard drive to another computer, like in an enclosure, install from there
[15:53] <dli> jig, you can try "safe graphics' mode
[15:53] <sadi> dli, should I have to kill pulse audio??
[15:54] <jig> I can't try anything because it freezes as soon as it comes up
[15:54] <dli> sadi, kill pulse, just for testing
[15:54] <sadi> ok
[15:54] <BDR> edbian: I've turned off the security settings and it's taking a rather long time to connect.
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> simo_: we cant discuss win probs here so, i suggest you stick to good ol ubuntu :p
[15:55] <dli> jig, please read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[15:55] <dli> BDR, but it connects, right?
[15:55] <edbian> BDR: Does it connect at all?
[15:55] <Polah> lucidguy: Not really relevant here, but a lot of VPS hosts don't use cPanel.
[15:56] <jig> that's useless unless there's a way to edit the cd so it is already configured
[15:56] <simo_> lotuspsychje I need windows for some softwares to run, I just wanna try the disk check and thats all
[15:56] <sadi> dli, no pluse audio found
[15:56] <asen> Hello, guys! I have a problem with Ubuntu. I've just installed it on a brand new PC and after restart it won't go further than the ubuntu logo.
[15:56] <asen> Could someone please give me a hand?
[15:57] <dli> sadi, another point, install pulseaudio, and play with pavucontrol
[15:57] <edbian> asen: with what?
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> simo_: ssd drives dont work like physical drives, im pretty sure nothings wrong with your ssd
[15:57] <asen> edbian: I described my problem a few lines up
[15:57] <dli> asen, try to remove 'quiet splash' kernel parameters in grub
[15:57] <edbian> asen: Does it freeze or go black?
[15:57] <edbian> asen: Yes, remove those kernel options
[15:58] <sadi> ok, dli
[15:58] <asen> I suppose it freezes - like I said, I heard the log-on sound and it's been displaying only the velvetish background with the ububtu logo for 15 minutes now
[15:58] <jig> can I kill the splash screen before I get to it, cause my graphics card is screwing it up... what the hell is the point of an alternate cd with a graphics splash screen
[15:58] <asen> how do I remove the quiet splash?
[15:59] <edbian> asen: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[15:59] <dli> asen, press 'e' when grub shows you bootup entries
[15:59] <edbian> asen: Look at the one about temporarily on an installed OS (not wubi)
[15:59] <edbian> If you have wubi then follow thos
[15:59] <sadi> dli, give me the terminal command please
[16:00] <dli> sadi, sudo vi /etc/default/grub; sudo update-grub
[16:00] <asen> Thanks, guys! I'll see what happens next and will get back to you.
[16:00] <jig> since I cant install it any other way can I use wubi and then make that a full installation?
[16:01] <sadi> itz grub command not the pluse audio
[16:01] <dli> sadi, sorry, sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pavucontrol; pulseaudio --start;pavucontrol
[16:02] <ghufran> Hi, i'm using 11.04 and want to change the order of applications in launcher. i've seen a couple of guides but they tell me to look at gconf-editor > desktop > unity-2d. but i don't have unity-2d section there ..
[16:03] <jig> HELLO Hello hello ello
[16:03] <jig> lo lo lo
[16:03] <BDR> [10:55] <edbian> BDR: Does it connect at all? <- it still has not connected, actually.
[16:03] <edbian> BDR: mmmm, this is a long time. What card? What driver?
[16:04] <ghufran> any suggestions?
[16:04]  * Dr_Willis missed the problem
[16:06] <BDR> edbian: here's a non timeout line from dmesg = [3888.703867] type=1400 audit(1310553298.513:86): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/dev/.udev/data/b11:0" pid=1999 comm="evince" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
[16:06] <stealthboy> hi i am having it go to lock wean i tell it to never do that can you help
[16:06] <BDR> edbian: it's an intersil 3886
[16:06] <asen> All right, so I removed the quiet splash and added nomodeset, but I still don't see the OS itself. Right now it's frozen at "Stopping userspace bootsplash [OK]"
[16:07] <edbian> BDR: That dmesg has nothing to do with your wifi.
[16:07] <edbian> asen: That's useful.  We can both start googling it.
[16:07] <BDR> edbian: Sorry, not real experienced with the messages.
[16:07] <edbian> BDR: What driver?  sudo lspci -k
[16:07] <edbian> BDR: That's ok.  evince is a pdf veiwer
[16:08] <sadi> dli, error E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[16:09] <BDR> edbian: I see a "link is not ready" message in reference to wlan0 - is that more like it?
[16:09] <dli> sadi, sudo apt-get -f update
[16:09] <dli> sadi, and try again
[16:09] <gechmog> Hello, I tried googling and cannot find the answer anywhere. I run ubuntu 10.04, and after installing a recent update my comp froze up, so I reboot, and then I get thrown into a (initramfs)? Uh, what do?
[16:09] <gechmog> Okay, I'm typing this from my laptop right now so I am unable to copy paste anything from the box that is with the problem (lacks networking).
[16:10] <edbian> BDR: That has a lot to do with wifi but it is not immediately helpful.  How about that driver?
[16:10] <anthony_dev> hi. I installed clutter lib to my system (to use it in my development in future). now I'm trying to compile a simple example, but gcc+netbeans wasnt able to find clutter.h. so I found it and edited this example. but now in clutter.h gcc+netbeans cant finde glib.h which already installed in system. Where I can add kind of alias to glib.h and the actual path to this header file? (ubuntu)
[16:12] <BDR> edbian: I believe it's r8169 still, as I was dissuaded from the ndiswrapper + remove original driver solution yesterday.
[16:12] <dli> anthony_dev, you can do command line option for gcc: gcc -I /path/to/ for headers
[16:12] <BDR> edbian: (which worked, in that the computer recognized the adapter, but it can't talk to the network)
[16:12] <edbian> BDR: sudo lspci -k will tell you which driver is being used.
[16:13] <edbian> BDR: WE're at the same place here right?
[16:13] <DanaG> hmm, what do I need to do to get airprint on my ubuntu server?
[16:13] <zerofly> Hi, I have some problem on libvirt when I try to use virsh pool-define to create a storage pool, who knows it?
[16:13] <DanaG> My printer isn't showing the URF record it's supposed to show
[16:14] <BDR> edbian: a moment, since literally none of the info from lspci directly refers to the adapter.
[16:14] <edbian> BDR: Is this a usb device?
[16:14] <zerofly> Does anybody who knows libvirt storage pool?
[16:14] <BDR> edbian: yes
[16:14] <DanaG> ah, had to check "share printers connected to this system".
[16:14] <edbian> BDR: Ahh, that's why :P
[16:15] <BDR> edbian: I already know the 1630:0005 number too!
[16:15] <edbian> BDR: sudo lsmod | grep r8169
[16:15] <BDR> edbian: will do
[16:15] <lotuspsychje> BDR: you using wpa personal on natty?
[16:17] <BDR> lotuspsychje: i turned off all wireless security from the router
[16:17] <BDR> lotuspsychje: said router isn't hooked into linux
[16:18] <lotuspsychje> BDR: i had disconnects from wifi wpa personal on natty, had to switch to WEP to get it working on rtl card
[16:18] <Abhijit> hi
[16:19] <ronqbc> does Konqueror safe? can i install it on gnome?
[16:19] <ronqbc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/  does this bad? what should i do?
[16:19] <BDR> lotuspsychje: it wasn't working on WEP, kept returning authentication requests - now without security, it has been trying for at least 15 mins to connect without success
[16:19] <Abhijit> ronqbc, you can installl it in gnome
[16:19] <ronqbc> i've big problems using irc. the chat delay in 5 min. why?
[16:19] <lotuspsychje> BDR: did you clean install natty or update?
[16:20] <ronqbc> Abhijit, why i don't see this browser in the list?
[16:21] <BDR> edbian: "r8169 42534 0" is the result (tab between r8169 and 42534)
[16:21] <BDR> lotuspsychje: I can't update - I can't get online, thus can't pull anything from the Internet.
[16:21] <edbian> BDR: That means the r8169 driver is loaded but not being used.  I'm not sure what the problem is.
[16:21] <Abhijit> O.o
[16:22] <sadi> dli, no sound till now
[16:22] <Abhijit> ronqbc, i think its conkeror
[16:22] <ronqbc> isn't Abhijit
[16:22] <Abhijit> ok
[16:23] <daedra> Brasero (burning tool) says 100% Done but is creating an image checksum, and the ETA is slowly creeping up. It's been doing this for 2 hours now
[16:23] <ronqbc> how may i solcve this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/
[16:23] <daedra> is it safe to stop Brasero?
[16:23] <Abhijit> ronqbc, but why you want konqeror?
[16:23] <BDR> lotuspsychje: I *can* reinstall linux but I've already done that like twice now. This is a brand new computer in so far as it was put together on Wednesday and this install is like from Thursday/Friday or so.
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> BDR: one day i had to add cd-rom to update my system in synaptic, before it loaded the correct wifi driver (when i could not axs the web)
[16:23] <sadi> dli, no sound till now
[16:23] <sadi> dli, no sound till now
[16:24] <BDR> lotuspsychje: also the only thing I put on so far was a fix to make Linux recognize my adapter, which worked as I can see my router with it.
[16:24] <ronqbc> Abhijit, i don't need it. just out of curiosity
[16:24] <Abhijit> asterix is not in repo?
[16:24] <Abhijit> ronqbc, no idea
[16:25] <sadi> dli, no sound till now
[16:25] <robin0800> BDR, what did you do to make it see your router?
[16:26] <ron__> i've a real problem in xchat. i'm trying to assign sounds to events from the settings but they disappear after a closure. why?
[16:27] <lotuspsychje> BDR: installing ubuntu without internet is always pain in the ass lol
[16:27] <BDR> lotuspsychje: I was not expecting that!
[16:28] <sakuragno> how do i make vlc play in auto dvds and paroleMP play in auto cd-audio? (i'm using xubuntu10.10
[16:28] <lotuspsychje> BDR: cant you axs cable to pc to update system to the internet?
[16:28] <RubyTN> I have an odd situation, where my wireless internet works for about 10-12 hours and then disconnects.  After it disconnects, I am not able to reconnect unless/until I restart.  What do I need to do to fix this or at least be able to reconnect to my wifi?
[16:28] <BDR> robin0800: http://packages.ubunut.com/hu/maverick/all/linux-firmware-nonfree/download
[16:28] <ron__> what can i do about my irc problems? i often see a major delay
[16:29] <BDR> lotuspsychje: I don't have any cables like that lying around.
[16:29] <lotuspsychje> RubyTN: are you on natty and wpa personal?
[16:29] <ron__> what can i do about my irc problems? i often see a major delay
[16:29] <ron__> i've a real problem in xchat. i'm trying to assign sounds to events from the settings but they disappear after a closure. why?
[16:29] <RubyTN> lotuspsychje: wpa personal
[16:29] <Donez> BDR what`s your WIFI card?
[16:29] <lotuspsychje> RubyTN: try WEP on natty it dosconnected me too
[16:30] <BDR> Donez: The adapter is an Intersil 3886.
[16:30] <RubyTN> lotuspsychje: what do you mean natty?
[16:30] <BDR> RubyTN: natty = 11.04
[16:30] <lotuspsychje> ubuntu natty(latest version)
[16:31] <RubyTN> lotuspsychje: is there any way to reset the network settings on 10.0.4?
[16:31] <daedra> Brasero (burning tool) says 100% Done but is creating an image checksum, and the ETA is slowly creeping up. It's been doing this for 2 hours now. Is it safe to stop Brasero?
[16:31] <ron__> i've a real problem in xchat. i'm trying to assign sounds to events from the settings but they disappear after a closure. why?
[16:32] <BDR> robin0800: I was about to use an ndiswrapper solution and remove the r8169 driver, but bazhang told me it was a last ditch and found the solution above, which seemed to work (and then I ran into the wall which is that the driver I would have removed isn't doing anything anyway)
[16:33] <savid> Has anyone here used Kupfer?  I'm trying to figure out how to use plugins.  For example, I've enabled the gmail plugin but I have no idea how to use it.
[16:33] <rhino__> BDR: is there any way to reset the network settings on 10.0.4?
[16:33] <BDR> rhino__: Are you talking the computer with Linux on it or the router/modem settings?
[16:34] <daedra> does brasero usually fail all over the place?
[16:34] <miasma> is there some kind of control panel in ubuntu that lets one choose the default sound device for pulseaudio?
[16:34] <rhino__> BDR:  the computer with Linux, I know how to and have already reset the router and modem
[16:34] <C1iFF> Hello everyone, I desperately need to create an exact backup of my Ubuntu partition and would like to know the best way to do it. I need to be able to restore my computer from it in case any updates I make go bad in the original.
[16:35] <Jemt> Hello guys. I want to dual boot on a Mac Book Pro. Will I need to install OSX first, or can I install Ubuntu and later OSX ?
[16:36] <BDR> rhino__: I've already reset the router/modem combo. As for the Linux computer, I've been actively using it for about 2-3 days so I don't know where anything is - you'll have to tell me what you mean by '10.0.4' unless that's the IP I have to go to in Firefox, in which case I'll do that.
[16:37] <io> Jemt: depends if you want to play with Ubuntu or OS X first
[16:37] <Jemt> io: Ubuntu first. But I'm not sure whether the OSX installer will wipe my entire drive

[16:42] <ron__> does this healthy? http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/
[16:42] <DanaG> Really, it should be noTTY
[16:43] <BDR> Well, thanks for trying edbian, lotuspsychje, robin0800 - I think I may just go ahead and get a new adapter.
[16:43] <BDR> See y'all later
[16:43] <DanaG> Anyway, I fixed my airprint... despite checking "share this printer", I also had to check "share printers" separately.
[16:43] <edbian> BDR: hav ea good one!
[16:43] <OerHeks> ron__, looks fine
[16:43] <BDR> edbian: you too
[16:43] <StevenR> ron__: that looks fine, very consistant, no packet loss.
[16:44] <ron__> isee
[16:45] <C1iFF> Thanks ubottu !!
[16:45] <raven_> i get input output error with one file on a ntfs partition. any way to recover this file?
[16:46] <lotuspsychje> BDR: without internet might be same prob
[16:46] <PaoloRotolo> hi all
[16:46] <zaxius> ok, i'm halfway there...but i accidentally kept my menu.lst when i upgraded to 10.10 (because i have windows in it).  but i remember from last time that this means i'm not getting the latest kernel.  i'm not sure what to change it to since it looks like there's a checksum in the line.
[16:46] <lotuspsychje> BDR:cant you add cdrom source to update rep. to find correct wifi adapter?
[16:47] <OerHeks> raven_, you could use testdisk to verify the partition.
[16:47] <zaxius> maybe it's not a checksum but: kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-generic root=UUID=c1b4cd26-dcd8-4284-b00
[16:47] <zaxius> 6-f3510a3cd05f ro quiet splash
[16:47] <webczat> Hey. Will openjdk7 be included in ubuntu before 11.10?
[16:47] <zaxius> can i just copy someone else's?
[16:48] <lotuspsychje> raven_: install pysdm
[16:48] <ikonia> zaxius: just change the kernel name to the kernel you want to use
[16:48] <zaxius> ikonia: that whole hex string stays the same?
[16:48] <OerHeks> webczat, i'm not sure, ask in #ubuntu+1 ?
[16:48] <ikonia> zaxius: yes, that's a disk identifier
[16:49] <ChogyDan> anyone else run into an issue with chromium, and flash crashing everytime a page is closed?
[16:49] <zaxius> thanks
[16:50] <lotuspsychje> ChogyDan: flash crashing on chromium sounds like exploit or malicious code
[16:50] <bil21al> can any one tell me a good software of data recovery?????
[16:50] <sakuragno> how do i set autoplay for dvd and audiocd'

[16:51] <bil21al> ikonia; i want to restore my data from mobile some very  imp things are deleted so i want to recover them ,so is there any software to recover my data???
[16:52] <BlackBinary> webczat:  yes
[16:52] <ikonia> bil21al: what file system is on your mobile phone ?
[16:52] <BlackBinary> spams with porn URLs
[16:52] <sakuragno> how do i set autoplay for dvd and audiocd?
[16:52] <webczat> BlackBinary: This was the response to what question?
[16:52] <OerHeks> sakuragno, here is a tutorial how to STOP autoplay, you need to turn it round  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-turn-off-auto-play-of-cdsdvds-and-ipods-in-ubuntu.html
[16:52] <webczat> ah
[16:53] <sakuragno> thx
[16:53] <bil21al> it was a vedio  ikonia;
 a bot or a spammer?
[16:53] <webczat> mhm
[16:53] <BlackBinary> ;)
[16:53] <ikonia> bil21al: what file system is on the phone
[16:54] <bil21al> hmm its nokia mobile phone nokia 2700 classic  ikonia;
[16:54] <webczat> Hmm, I want openjdk7 on ubuntu. It's going to be released in about ten days.
[16:54] <ikonia> bil21al: no, I asked what file system is on the phone, not what phone it was
[16:54] <sakuragno> OerHeks, does not work :D
[16:55] <bil21al> i dont know..how to know it??? ikonia;
[16:55] <ikonia> bil21al: research
[16:55] <Donez> BDR I read http://wiki.debian.org/prism54#p54pci , but ubuntu got linux-wlan-ng-firmware.. however  I don`t know if it contain p54pci driver
[16:55] <ikonia> bil21al: I suspect doing this under linux is not a good option due to the questionable results gnokii supports when connecting to nokia
[16:55] <bil21al> ok
[16:56] <OerHeks> sakuragno, this part > http://www.ubuntugeek.com/images/au/3.png
[16:56] <bil21al> ok now what can i do guide me plz  ikonia
[16:56] <KennyX> hello
[16:56] <gorgonzola> hello peoples. i have a very annoying problem that is driving me insane, and want soe help. my laptop doesn't get dhcp addresses oon wifi. any idea how to debug this? note that i have no control over the access points
[16:57] <ikonia> bil21al: what ? I've just told you to resarch what file system is on the phone, and then suggested that linux may not be the best way to do it, I'm not guiding you
[16:57] <KennyX> i am back here in this room! woo hooo
[16:57] <sakuragno> i perfect know :D i'm using vlc instead of totem but ok.. when i put a disk in...nothing happens.. and if i double click on it stills open just the folder
[16:57] <sakuragno> OerHeks, i perfect know :D i'm using vlc instead of totem but ok.. when i put a disk in...nothing happens.. and if i double click on it stills open just the folder
[16:57] <ikonia> gorgonzola: it's probably not binding to the wifi access point, so not getting an IP
[16:57] <gorgonzola> ikonia, it is binding, it is dhclient that fails after waiting for dhcp leases.
[16:57] <KennyX> is getting a google+ invite that hard?
[16:58] <ikonia> gorgonzola: how do you know it's connecting
[16:58] <ikonia> KennyX: that's offtopic here
[16:58] <gorgonzola> ikonia, the problem is completely erratic. some ap wrk, some don't right now i was at one that was supposed to wrk reliably, now it is not working again.
[16:58] <gorgonzola> KennyX yes.
[16:58] <KennyX> oh sorry for asking
[16:58] <ikonia> gorgonzola: then either a.) your dhcp server has ran out of leases b.) your client is not connecting to the access point
[16:58] <KennyX> really? it is easy for me. i can invite people
[16:59] <KennyX> ;(
[16:59] <gorgonzola> ikonia ah.
[16:59] <gorgonzola> ikonia i hadn't thougth of that.... i'm mostly using public ap's as i'm travelling in europe...
[16:59] <ikonia> gorgonzola: they are the most realistic options
[16:59] <skrite> hey all
[17:00] <gorgonzola> ikonia it sounds very reasonable. it just hadn't occurred to me. the depths of ap admins' imcompetence defy the imagination.
[17:00] <gorgonzola> ikonia thanks for the ip.
[17:00] <gorgonzola> tip*
[17:00] <cyperbg> guys: I'm trying to install Ubuntu 11.04 on a 4GB flash drive and managed to remove the 4.4GB free space requirement, but the Installer crashed because it ran out of space on the 2.28GB parition I created. So do you know how much actual space does it need? And can I create the Swap partition really small - like 300MB for example?
[17:00] <ikonia> welcome
[17:01] <Mamed> hello again
[17:01] <skrite> i am doing an install from the cli mini iso, got a system up but i don't know the name of the package that helps with installing hardware drivers, like for nvidia
[17:01] <KennyX> I am just curious. is there a way for me to chat on irc freenode on a Chrome OS notebook? i can't access #ubuntu on irc.freenode because freenode blocks mibbit. i had to install Ubuntu on it, and install irssi
[17:03] <ikonia> KennyX: how is chrome OS something #ubuntu should support ?
[17:03] <ron__> how can i make windows semi transperent?
[17:03] <ikonia> KennyX: I suggest you read the topic of this channel
[17:03] <ChogyDan> cyperbg: if you have 1g ram, you can get by without swap
[17:03] <KennyX> chrome os is built with canonical. it is ubuntu base
[17:03] <cyperbg> ChogyDan, I have 2GB of ram - so you are saying it i safe NOT to create a parition for SWAP?
[17:03] <ikonia> KennyX: chome isn't an OS built with canonical -
[17:04] <ikonia> KennyX: keep in mind we support 'Ubuntu here
[17:04] <skrite> what is the name of the package to install for the restricted drivers manager?
[17:04] <ChogyDan> cyperbg: yes, it is safe at 1g.  I have 2g myself, and I have almost never used the swap that I have
[17:04] <ikonia> skrite: it's installed by default
[17:04] <KennyX> did you read the news? canonical and google made chrome os
[17:04] <ikonia> KennyX: no
[17:04] <skrite> ikonia: well, i installed from a mini.iso
[17:04] <ikonia> KennyX: this isn't canonical support either, it's "ubuntu" support
[17:04] <szal> cyperbg, ChogyDan: I wouldn't bet on that
[17:05] <KennyX> i am using ubuntu 11.04 on a cr-48
[17:05] <KennyX> sharing the chrome os kernal
[17:05] <ChogyDan> cyperbg: I don't think you want swap on a flash drive anyway, right?
[17:05] <bil21al> ikonia ; can u suggest me what  i do/???
[17:05] <ikonia> KennyX: no, sorry
[17:05] <ikonia> bil21al: no
[17:05] <Chheap> Hi, Is there a way to use scanner wich is connected to a windows machine on ubuntu
[17:05] <murlidhar> can anyone tell how to make messages appear on notify-osd ... wanna use a command like echo hello world would print hello world on the terminal
[17:05] <cyperbg> ChogyDan, why? It is not an actual flash drive with memory cells, but it has a mini HDD inside
[17:06] <Chheap> I've got the printer part working but cant get the scanner to work.
[17:06] <cyperbg> szal, so what is the lowest I can get on the swap space?
[17:06] <bil21al> hmm ok thankx man ikonia;
[17:07] <nettezzaumana> hello there
[17:07] <ChogyDan> cyperbg: ok, as long as it isn't solid state.   regardless, you'll be fine without swap
[17:07] <nettezzaumana> would anyone pastebin for me output from this from latest (factory) ubuntu: `nm /lib/libc.so.6 | grep \ GLIBC_'
[17:07] <szal> cyperbg: pretty much depends on your desktop environment and usage, but with the 'heavy' ones (= KDE, Gnome), 2 GB can get damn close to full
[17:08] <szal> cyperbg: and when that is the case and you have no swap, things will get messy
[17:08] <cyperbg> szal, it won't be used as a desktop machine - it will be rather light installation that will be working 24/7 as a Mining rig (Bitcoin)
[17:08] <KennyX> ikonia, you version me
[17:08] <ikonia> KennyX: correct
[17:08] <ron__> how can i make windows semi transperent?
[17:08] <nettezzaumana> would anyone pastebin for me output from this from latest (factory) ubuntu: `nm /lib/libc.so.6 | grep \ GLIBC_'
[17:11] <KennyX> i version myself too
[17:11] <KennyX> why did you do it?
[17:11] <daedra> how do I rebuild a partition table?
[17:11] <ikonia> KennyX: I was curious to what you are running, that is offtopic here though
[17:11] <daedra> I resized a partition with GParted from 900GB to two 450GB partitions. Now GParted sees only one partition of 900GB, and sees it as more full than it really is. mount /dev/sdb1 shows the correct information
[17:11] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: on stock natty that would print something like: no symbol table.
[17:11] <ChogyDan> nettezzaumana: I don't have that file...
[17:11] <KennyX> Chrome OS and Ubuntu 11.04. using the Chrome OS kernel <IP_ADDRESS>+ on Ubuntu
[17:11] <ikonia> KennyX: yes, you said that, that's why it's not supported here
[17:11] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: (for the file in /lib/<multiarch-triplet>
[17:11] <KennyX> okay, i was just curious about the work around on getting on here
[17:11] <gorgonzola> KennyX good luck finding support for that...
[17:11] <nettezzaumana> Ampelbein, ChogyDan oh really .. just work it out please and dig out from it that info or just upload it somewhere please ... it's small
[17:12] <the[void]>  anyone have any ideas as to why my ubuntu installs gets tons of errors trying to retrieve libraries during install?   its on an ion2 chipset
[17:12] <KennyX> yeah, it doesn't support Java
[17:12] <ChogyDan> nettezzaumana: I did find the file elsewhere, and it is just "no symbols"
[17:12] <KennyX> is #help a good channel to ask that question?
[17:12] <ikonia> KennyX: doubtful
[17:12] <ikonia> KennyX: freenode.net browse the info on thre
[17:12] <ikonia> there
[17:12] <nettezzaumana> ChogyDan: it's not possible o.O
[17:12] <KennyX> it is not helpful
[17:12] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: it won't be useful... but ok: http://paste.ubuntu.com/645467/
[17:13] <nettezzaumana> ChogyDan: if the output is long just use
[17:13] <nettezzaumana> alias susepaste='curl -v -F code="<-" -F submit=submit -F lang=text http://susepaste.org 2>&1 | sed -n "s|<\ Location:\ ||p"'
[17:13] <nettezzaumana> Ampelbein: oh my god i belive you
[17:13] <szal> the[void]: most probable cause is bad install medium
[17:14] <BluesKaj> daedra, delete the empty partition to make it unallocated then format it to a fs that you want to use on it
[17:14] <amh345> im logged as ubuntu and im trying to setup a restricted user called mshare.  when i ssh into mshare - and try to look at one of the drives it says i dont have permission.  when i got to the permissions tab while logged in as ubuntu, it wont let me change any of the options to anything else. everytime i select something it selects back.
[17:14]  * nettezzaumana is totally confused .. he considered himself before while as pretty skilled unix-monkey but this broke his down
[17:14] <daedra> BluesKaj: there is no empty partition AFAICT
[17:14] <Scuttle> hm, when I log onto my machine va SSH there is a message telling me "New release 'natty' available.", where is this done? what config-file
[17:14] <amh345> what im trying to do is give access to a drive with all my mp3's on it
[17:14] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: On Debian systems usually all debug symbols are stripped.
[17:14] <asen> Hi there! Is anyone willing to help me with a mega annoying problem I'm having due to my video card?
[17:15] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: there are the -dbg packages and ddebs.ubuntu.com for detached debug symbols.
[17:15] <RaStUs> anyone know a website with info about good media software for 11.04?
[17:15] <ikonia> RaStUs: https://help.ubuntu.com
[17:16] <BluesKaj> daedra, you must have one with free space ?
[17:16] <Donez> asen, what`s Your card?
[17:17] <BluesKaj> daedra or as free space ratrher
[17:17] <trism> Scuttle: I would guess: /etc/update-motd.d/91-release-upgrade
[17:17] <Ampelbein> nettezzaumana: if you tell us what your goal is/what you want to know maybe we can help.
[17:19] <amh345> can anyone help with my above question?
[17:19] <amh345> the machines accessing this computer are only ubuntu and osx. no windows.
[17:19] <lagreca> hi friends, how can I change ubuntu's default window manager through command line?
[17:20] <gorgonzola> lagreca, it depends on he window manager
[17:20] <BluesKaj> daedra, are you using the gparted live cd or usb ?
[17:21] <gorgonzola> lagreca, basically, you execute the window manager from your xsession and tell it to replace the currently running winow manager. i.e.: kwin --replace
[17:22] <daedra> BluesKaj: livecd
[17:22] <lagreca> ok, but what if I cannot start any graphical interface
[17:23] <gorgonzola> lagreca you mean x fails to start?
[17:23] <ron__> when i try to open a new channel it could take a lot of time. why?
[17:23] <gorgonzola> lagreca there are tons of reasons why that can be happening.
[17:23] <gorgonzola> lagreca you need to look into you x log nd see what is killing it.
[17:23] <gorgonzola> lagreca in general, it's pretty obvious.
[17:23] <lagreca> and what's the file?
[17:24] <asen> Hi, people. I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a brand new computer with a ATI Radeon HD 6450 video card. After the installation I get stuck on either the ubuntu logo screen, a velvet or a black screen. Can someone please help me?
[17:24] <gorgonzola> lagreca /var/log/Xorg.0.log usually.
[17:25] <gorgonzola> lagreca, alternativelly, if X just isn't being called at boot, you can try starting it from the command line invoking your session manager, i.e. gdm in gnome, kdm in kde.
[17:25] <edbian> asen: and booting with quite and splash off produces no errors
[17:25] <gorgonzola> lagreca another alternative, is to try starting X as root, just to ee if it starts, and if its a permissions problem. I ouldn't use that session, though.
[17:26] <noric> hi, does ./foo > /tmp/blah  cause ./foo process to block during file write to /tmp/blah ?
[17:26] <BluesKaj> daedra, can you describe in more detail what partitons you see there pls.
[17:26] <gorgonzola> lagreca: finally, the most typical problem, apart from video driver issues, is that your hd is full. it is very common, because X fails to tell ou anything about it, and just dies a quiet peaceful death
[17:27] <lagreca> thanks gorgonzola
[17:27] <gorgonzola> lagreca start with log, that should point you in the right direction. good luck!
[17:27] <gorgonzola> lagreca you re welcome.
[17:28] <lagreca> thanks
[17:28] <beppe> ciao
[17:28] <daedra> BluesKaj: ok let me pastebin something.. what though?
[17:28] <daedra> BluesKaj: fstab?
[17:29] <coz_> hey all
[17:31] <Mamed> is there a way to resize the window of the command prompt so it dosent cover the whole window because i can grip the corner
[17:33] <szal> Mamed: if you can, where is the problem?
[17:34] <Mamed> sorry i mean that i CAN't
[17:34] <redfox> hi. i would like to install ubuntu from hard disk since i cannot boot from CD. i currently have windows 7 installed. is there any convenient way to do this?
[17:35] <BluesKaj> fstab won't list any unmounted partitions , daedra
[17:35] <BluesKaj> or empty ones
[17:36] <moes> I have Ubuntu 10.04 on my sda 1 hard drive..I also have Ubuntu 10.04 on my sdb 1 hard drive along with Mageia 1 on that drive...How do I delete the ubuntu 10.04 on the second hard drive sdb and retain grub2 from the first hard drive as the controlling grub
[17:37] <ron__> how can i make windows semi transperent?
[17:38] <colonelkhadafy> moes: #grub
[17:39] <evan_> does anybody know how to turn on compositing?
[17:40] <ron__> when i hit send and receive in evulution just with gmail it takes a lot of time to complete the process. why?
[17:42] <evan_> does anybody know how to turn on compositing?
[17:42] <quiescens> Mamed: for most applications in general, your options are: ( alt-space, r, arrow key to select a border, then arrow keys to move that border ) to resize, or ( alt-space, m, arrow keys ) to move. but if this is affecting your default terminal, you might consider ( right click, profiles, profile preferences ) and then changing either the font size, or the default terminal size
[17:43] <BluesKaj> daedra, if you resized to 450from 900 , the partition with no data needs to be 'activated' from just a free space partition to unallocated , by deleting it ...sounds strange , but once it's unallocated then it's recognized as a partition that';s empty and needs to be formatted
[17:44] <chrihala> Hello everyone. I am trying to install Ubuntu server 11.04 on a HP machine but I keep getting a blank screen and nothing happening after pressing "Install server". What could be causing this and what can be done about it?
[17:46] <Mamed> do you mean that i hold in alt and space and click m or is that a command to put in terminal?
[17:46] <quiescens> you can click it or type it
[17:46] <daedra> BluesKaj: no I shrank from 900 to 450
[17:47] <quiescens> alt-space should bring up the menu if i remember correctly
[17:48] <Mamed> put its the command dialog that i wanna resize (ALT+F2) and when i click alt+space i make just spaces
[17:49] <cfs_> How can I view the init script outputs in text in Xubuntu 11.04? I've erased "quiet splash" from /etc/default/grub, but now I just see a blank screen with no text until gdm loads
[17:49] <rannmann> I thought this was cute: http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/w00t.html
[17:50] <BluesKaj> daedra, does the 450 show as a primary or logical partition ?
[17:50] <daedra> BluesKaj: primary
[17:50] <cfs_> I would actually just like it to boot up and log in like I do in Debian... showing all of the init script outputs and non-graphical login
[17:51] <shadyzgeek> who have a static one
[17:51] <quiescens> Mamed: your run application dialog doesn't fit on the screen? which release are you on? 11.04?
[17:51] <BluesKaj> daedra, ok right click on it to make sure it's active and that no options are greyed out
[17:51] <shadyzgeek> Mamed are talking about me
[17:51] <cfs_> anybody got an idea? or should I go ask in the Debian room?
[17:52] <shadyzgeek> who is killing the time here
[17:52] <Mamed> quiescens: it fits just fine i think its just that i want it smaller, it covers the whole window right now but i dont like it like that i want it to resizable
[17:52] <daedra> BluesKaj: in gparted? Options greyed out are: New Paste Undo and Apply
[17:53] <guesswho> I just installed 11.04 (desktop) onto my macbook, and am occasionally running into strange trackpad issues. Occasionally (I haven't isolated what exactly causes it), the trackpad will no longer move the cursor. A USB mouse moves the mouse fine, and i can use the trackpad for multitouch (two finger scrolling, two finger click  right click)
[17:53] <cfs_> I'll just deal with it and use pure Debian
[17:53] <cfs_> it's better anyway
[17:53] <daedra> trololol
[17:53] <Mamed> quiescens: im on 11.04
[17:53] <the[void]> rage quit?!?!?!
[17:53] <daedra> the[void]: yea haha
[17:53] <guesswho> this is fixed if i restart my session. any ideas of what might be causing this or how to isolate the issue?
[17:53] <shadyzgeek> cant use my wireless card any help around here
[17:55] <BluesKaj> daedra, is gparted still showing it as 900?
[17:55] <redfox> hi. i would like to install ubuntu from hard disk since i cannot boot from CD. i currently have windows 7 installed. is there any convenient way to do this?
[17:55] <Mamed> quiescens: i want kinda like this guy has the window dosent cover the whole window    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDIGOtInoKY&feature=player_detailpage#t=268s
[17:56] <Mamed> quiescens: his window has the small arrows at the right-down corner i dont see that
[17:56] <gregorio_> hello
[17:56] <f3bruary> redfox: install from USB
[17:57] <redfox> f3bruary: i can only boot from hdd :(
[17:57] <f3bruary> redfox: why
[17:57] <daedra> BluesKaj: yes still showing as 900
[17:57] <daedra> mount shows as 450
[17:57] <gregorio_> lubuntu
[17:58] <redfox> f3bruary: since the computer is set to hdd boot and i cannot enter bios.
[17:58] <MangledBody> Hi everyone! I have a problem with nVidia (some MS edition) I can't install Ubuntu/Kubuntu on that PC, anyone has solution? The thing is, that after loading desktop, on screen appear only horizontal brown stripes
[18:00] <anli__> I compiled some screensavers, that resulted in some executables coming into /usr/local/bin of all places
[18:00] <BluesKaj> daedra, click on the 900 , it should show 2, 450s
[18:00] <lack> I'm trying to figure out if I can bind a custom script to my laptop's "disable touchpad" fn-key.  (11.04, classic desktop).  Right now when I press it I get a notification that the touchpad state has been toggled, and I even see a parameter in gconf change depending on whether the state is supposed to be on or off.  But I want to start a custom script when this key is pressed, since my touchpad (ALPS
[18:00] <lack> GlidePoint) doesn't actually work with the synaptics driver thus does not actually toggle when I press the key.
[18:00] <f3bruary> redfox: Why can't you enter BIOS ?
[18:00] <anli__> now how can I have those screensavers run except running them on the command line?
[18:01] <the[void]> anyone installed via us.ubuntu.com recently?
[18:01] <quiescens> Mamed: can you run gconf-editor
[18:01] <the[void]> i cannot get my installers to work at all.  any of the last 3 versions,  amd64  on an ion2 chipset
[18:02] <daedra> BluesKaj: no it does not
[18:02] <daedra> BluesKaj: it shows 1 900
[18:02] <quiescens> Mamed: and then go to desktop -> unity, look on the right for form-factor, and change it to desktop
[18:02] <quiescens> er
[18:02] <quiescens> wait
[18:02] <quiescens> dconf
[18:03] <quiescens> yay for new system
[18:03] <redfox> f3bruary: because i use a notebook from work which has restricted bios access. i want get rid of windows anyway, so i need to find a way to install ubuntu from a different partition from hdd or by using a grub to boot from cd. is there any tutorial regarding this?
[18:03] <dronix>  #Team-mkv sur irc.recycled-irc.net
[18:03] <BluesKaj> daedra, well I'm stumped ...I must be forgetting something , unless you didn't finalize the resize
[18:04] <f3bruary> Isnt there a button to push during startup that gives you the option to boot from other media
[18:04] <quiescens> Mamed: fine, change of plans, alt-f2, type in: gsettings set com.canonical.Unity form-factor Desktop
[18:04] <f3bruary> redfox: F12 or something like that
[18:04] <Mamed> i just opened gconf-editor
[18:05] <quiescens> its not gconf-editor any more
[18:05] <quiescens> just do that last message i typed, and ignore the gconf bit
[18:05] <Mamed> there is desktop -> {gnome, ibus, pgq} no unity
[18:06] <guesswho> how can i restart X (ctrl alt backspace is bringing up the restart menu instead of restarting X)
[18:06] <chrihala> Hi. I have a problem installing Ubuntu Server. See: http://goo.gl/7hknE
[18:06] <quiescens> yes, i just said that my first instructions weren't right
[18:06] <daedra> BluesKaj: yes
[18:06] <daedra> BluesKaj: I didn't finalise the resize
[18:07] <daedra> am I totally screwed? :(
[18:07] <redfox> f3bruary: there isnt such a hotkey, its a thinkpad t60 :(
[18:07] <quiescens> Mamed: instead, just do alt-f2, and type in: gsettings set com.canonical.Unity form-factor Desktop
[18:07] <Mamed> ok
[18:08] <widbox> guesswho: sudo service gdm restart
[18:08] <Krishnandu> Hi, I installed kubuntu-standard, and kubuntu-desktop, and didn't liked it, and now I'm back to Unity, but the empathy fonts gone bad. How to correct that??
[18:09] <Krishnandu> I fixed the FF fonts already by deleting ~/.fonts.config
[18:10] <pdtpatr1ck> QUESTION: Why is it if use cat instead of cd .. the paths would put spaces instead of just going through directory?
[18:11] <a02> why was unity chosen for netbooks
[18:11] <a02> can anyone shed some light
[18:11] <f3bruary> redfox: Cant you get BIOS password ?
[18:12] <redfox> f3bruary: its very unlikely. i know someone who could enter it, but he wont tell me. its too complicated. but i just unplugged the hard drive and now it boots from cd. maybe ubuntu is able to recognize the hdd when i reattach it now...
[18:12] <f3bruary> redfox: maybe you can reflash the BIOS
[18:13] <widbox> pdtpatr1ck: cat is file viewer, cd is change directory command, instead?
[18:13] <quiescens> pdtpatr1ck: i'm.. not sure cat and cd are interchangable in any particularly useful way, what are you trying to do?
[18:13] <guesswho> hmmm. so restarting X gets me trackpad control back
[18:13] <Mamed> quiescens: its just tries to open a new page in chrome
[18:13] <savid> Is there a way to remove "Set up mail" and "Set up broadcast accounts" from the messages indicator?
[18:13] <ranjan> Thinking of moving to XFCE !!! Didnt like Unity and GNOME3
[18:13] <guesswho> I just find it strange that multi touch gestures are working, i can move the cursor with a USB mouse
[18:14] <pdtpatr1ck> yeah i know the difference between the two .. I'm a linux system admin. What i'm asking is .. if for instance i want to do cat /etc/network/interfaces .. if i type cat /et and tab complete - it would add a space instead of doing /etc/ to continue. Whereas cd does it automatically. Just wondering why it does that in ubuntu.
[18:14] <BluesKaj> daedra, no I don't think so , just make the resized the boot partition
[18:14] <quiescens> Mamed: argh, sorry, i keep thinking of the old run dialog thingy, can you open a terminal window
[18:14] <widbox> !classic | ranjan
[18:14] <quiescens> Mamed: and type it into the terminal window instead
[18:15] <Mamed> quiescens: ahh i worked now
[18:15] <Mamed> quiescens: thanks a lot
[18:15] <ranjan> widbox, yes i know that, but heard that Classic GNOME is no longer supported
[18:16] <daedra> BluesKaj: I rebuilt the partition table with testdisk
[18:16] <vishnu> i have an issue in ubuntu wifi
[18:16] <Mamed> quiescens: apperently there was a differens between the Alt+F2 and the search program box but they looked the same
[18:18] <quiescens> pdtpatr1ck: i don't seem to have any trouble tab completing with "cat /et<tab>"
[18:19] <Mamed> quiescens: can you help me with one more thing? i wanto start skype at boot up, i have dropbox and that work fine, i checked the startup list and dropbox had the command "dropbox start -i" and i tried to put that in and just replaced the name but that dosent work
[18:19] <widbox> pdtpatr1ck: Probably something is wrong, on desktop installs cd and cat tab-autocomplete path same way
[18:19] <quiescens> Mamed: i don't have/use skype, sorry
[18:20] <pdtpatr1ck> quiescens, when u do cat /etc there shouldn't be a space after /etc .. it should get to the end and give u options like /etc tab should show all the listings below so this way i can type the next letter and it would tab complete over.
[18:20] <pdtpatr1ck> I think it might be a bug
[18:21] <Pin> Hi, How can I make my Ubuntu 11.04 Faster? Anything I can do to make it even faster? (tweaks etc?)
[18:21] <vibhav> !fast
[18:21] <Chakravanti> is there a way i could unmount my root ext4 fs, turn off journalling, and remount?

[18:21] <oCean> pdtpatr1ck: did you install acrobat reader recently?
[18:21] <oCean> pdtpatr1ck: sorry, not you
[18:22] <quiescens> pdtpatr1ck: i'm not having any issue with it, if i type "cat /et<tab><tab>", it gives me "cat /etc/" "Display all x possibilities?"
[18:22] <oCean> pdtpatr1ck: wait, it might be for you after all :)  - you have trouble tabcompleting?

[18:24] <oCean> Pin: please use the bot privately ^
[18:25] <rumpe1> Pin, less fancy graphics effects usually helps
[18:25] <Mamed> quiescens: np, i have another uestion, i installed matlab and it asked which account the licence was for and i typed root as this is my only account but my actuall account is called mamed, and now i can find matlab, do i need to do something special to see it?
[18:25] <widbox> Pin: Yeah, ditch Xserver
[18:26] <Pin> !xserver? whats that, and how?
[18:26] <f3bruary> Pin, Ubuntu tweak ?
[18:26] <Pin> lol @ ubottu
[18:27] <widbox> Pin: Press: Alt-CTrl-F1 (F7 to go back), login and feel the speed
[18:27] <Pin> ?
[18:27] <StevenR> Pin: ok. what do you want to make faster?
[18:27] <Pin> What does that do widbox?
[18:28] <StevenR> Pin: it gives you a text-mode login.
[18:28] <StevenR> no gui
[18:28] <Pin> I want to make my operating system run faster.
[18:28] <f3bruary> It does in cli
[18:28] <Pin> For example, If i open a program i want things to open faster. Just more faster in general
[18:28] <f3bruary> get a new processor+some ram
[18:28] <f3bruary> ssd
[18:28] <StevenR> Pin: first find out where the bottleneck is then
[18:29] <quiescens> Mamed: i would guess you should have given it your user name and not root, maybe run the install again and use your user's name instead?
[18:29] <quiescens> Mamed: i don't have/use matlab either
[18:29] <Mamed> hahah ok thanks for all help
[18:29] <Pin> I want my system to run at optimal level. as fast as it could.
[18:29] <quiescens> Mamed: maybe they have their own support options available
[18:30] <guesswho> does anyone know of a good application to see what your trackpad is registering?
[18:31] <coz_> Pin,   are you running Unity?>
[18:31] <StevenR> Pin: first, you need to find out where the bottlenecks are.
[18:31] <Pin> Ubuntu Classic
[18:31] <MangledBody> coz_: Gnome
[18:31] <StevenR> Pin: are you running with effects disabled?
[18:31] <xangua> quiescens: want faster¿ use lighter programs, or use terminal intead of gui
[18:31] <Pin> effects on. I want effects on
[18:32] <xangua> ...
[18:32] <Pin> I want my system to run faster in general. What things can I do to make it faster?
[18:32] <coz_> Pin,  ok,,  in ccsm  under animations,, you can adjust the speed of the animation in case the animation speed is what appears to make the applications open slower
[18:33] <quiescens> ..
[18:33] <StevenR> Pin: ok. well, you still need to analyse your system (using top, or system monitor, etc) to find out what's causing a performance bottleneck. Until you know what's slowing it down, how can you improve it?
[18:34] <Pin> Ok I dont know how to do taht
[18:34] <Pin> that
[18:34] <StevenR> Pin: open a terminal. run "top" (you'll probably also want to read the manpage for top too), and watch it.
[18:34] <Pin> Im asking for methods, Tweaks
[18:34] <Pin> etc
[18:34] <coz_> Pin,   another way,, one that I generally dont  suggest is to install preload,,  boot time will probably increase with that however
[18:35] <oCean> Mamed: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB
[18:35] <coz_> Pin,   here is a list of things you can take a look at    http://mygeekopinions.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-make-ubuntu-unity-desktop-run.html
[18:35] <Pin> I dont want to get a 4 year degree in ubuntu . lol . I just want to make it faster. What can I do to make it faster?
[18:35] <xangua> Pin buy a faster computer
[18:36] <Pin> thank you coz_
[18:36] <nettezzaumana> ps
[18:37] <coz_> Pin,   also refrain from using  the Ubuntu software center,, it is generally pretty resource intensive ,, instead use synaptic package manager
[18:37] <Pin> What do you mean Coz, You mean to refraine installing software thru the Software center?
[18:38] <xangua> ...
[18:38] <io> !apt-get | Pin
[18:38] <coz_> Pici,   well yes,, use synaptic if possible or in terminal    sudo apt-get install  nameofpackage
[18:38] <Pin> oh ok, yes I use terminal alot
[18:39] <coz_> Pin,  cool  that will certainly help in using up resources at least for package installation and removals
[18:39] <io> Pin: do you have small space?
[18:39] <Pin> So programs installed thru Ubuntu software center are taking up speed even tho Im not currently runing them or any of them are open?
[18:40] <coz_> Pici,  you could probably spend the netire day on searching t he net for tips and tricks for making ubuntu faster on systems similar to yours
[18:40] <StevenR> Pin: no.
[18:40] <io> Pin: if you're computer is clogged up then that will effect your speed, whether they're running or not
[18:40] <nettezzaumana> Pin: if i understood properly you're experiencing some global system slack, right ?
[18:40] <coz_> Pin,  no   but ubuntu software center itself can be a resource intensive especially on lesser systems
[18:41] <io> Pin: if you're stuck for space on your computer then use the minimal install and install only the packages that you require
[18:41] <StevenR> Pin: it would be better to analyse your system with tools like top to find out what's using resources and then basing your tuning on that.
[18:41] <coz_> Pin,  plus you learn more from using terminal :)
[18:41] <funkster> Anyone have a working alfa awus036h wireles card - everything works fine with scanning for networks but everytime I connect it will either timeout or connects and no internet.
[18:41] <coz_> Pin,  I agree with StevenR  with that
[18:41] <coz_> Pin,  although i would suggest htop
[18:41] <actionParsnip> funkster: try a different wifi channel
[18:42] <nettezzaumana> funkster: try by hand with using wpa_supplicant ... you'll find examples in $docroot/wpa_supplicant/examples
[18:42] <funkster> actionParsnip, i've tried different APs completely - same issue
[18:42] <guesswho> Is there a way that I can see what the computer is seeing when it comes to trackpad input? (ideally touch locations)
[18:42] <funkster> nettezzaumana, you mean using iwconfig to connect?
[18:42] <actionParsnip> funkster: do they use the same channel?
[18:42] <funkster> actionParsnip, no
[18:42] <StevenR> Pin: how do you expect to fix it, without knowing why it's slow? (Yes, this involves work on your part to learn to use htop or top and interpret the results)
[18:42] <nettezzaumana> funkster: no really, just wpa_supplicant .. i don't use iwconfig at all
[18:42] <StevenR> guesswho: cat the device file?
[18:42] <actionParsnip> funkster: when the link drops, run:  dmesg | tail     it may give clues
[18:43] <Pin> Steven, Im assuming there is things that are holding the pc back from being faster
[18:43] <nettezzaumana> wpa_supplicant can't even connect to APs with no security enabled
[18:43] <coz_> Pin,  there are also utilities such as rcconf   or  sysv-rc-conf to stop services you dont need but that is more for boot up time saving
[18:43] <nettezzaumana> **can
[18:43] <Pin> like windows, theres things that can be shutdown that one does not need
[18:43] <nettezzaumana> of course
[18:43] <Pin> anyways thanks guy
[18:43] <StevenR> Pin: ok. well you need to *find out what these things are* :)
[18:43] <funkster> actionParsnip, it wont connect.. wont stay connect.. drops.. stays connected but i cant ping anything
[18:43] <guesswho> StevenR: thanks. not really sure how to do that but I'll start looking there
[18:43] <Pin> Well rather than telling me that i need to find out what those thigns are which is pretty obvious, you need to tell me how tofind those things
[18:44] <Pin> make sence?
[18:44] <io> Pin: he said, 'top' or 'htop'
[18:44] <StevenR> Pin: I've told you. Use htop or top.
[18:44] <nettezzaumana> funkster: i experienced this many times with inane NM ... and afaik there is some bug in ConsoleKit causing so, so perhaps downgrading to older CK will fix it
[18:44] <Pin> then how do you remove those processes that are unnessary?
[18:44] <coz_> Pin,   top should already be installed but you will have to sudo apt-get install htop
[18:44] <funkster> im not aware of what you mean with CK and NM?
[18:44] <nettezzaumana> Pin: man pgrep
[18:44] <nettezzaumana> man pkill
[18:44] <StevenR> Pin: first, work out what they are, then work out what to do about them :)
[18:45] <nettezzaumana> Pin: read about services
[18:45] <Pin> thats obvious steven
[18:45] <nettezzaumana> Pin: also iotop
[18:45] <shadyzgeek> asdfghjkl
[18:45] <Pin> tell me somethign i dont know
[18:45] <zaccagnino> So my laptop crashed last night just went to the shutdown screen and died I went to a party come home today boot and it says complete indicator applet was corrupted or something so i had to delete it now my chat thing shutdown button and broadcast is gone off the bottom
[18:45] <guesswho> any tips on identifying which file is the trackpad's?
[18:45] <StevenR> Pin: ok, well, what does htop say then?
[18:45] <Pin> Ok im going to learn top and htop if i need anythign else i'll come back
[18:45] <Pin> thanks guys!
[18:45] <StevenR> :)
[18:46] <zaccagnino> any ideas
[18:46] <StevenR> guesswho: lsusb, then look in /dev/bus for the right file to cat.
[18:47] <StevenR> guesswho: it might work... otherwise I'm not sure
[18:47] <nettezzaumana> guesswho: see /proc/bus/input/devices
[18:48] <nettezzaumana> ^^ it's there
[18:48] <zaccagnino> So my laptop crashed last night just went to the shutdown screen and died I went to a party come home today boot and it says complete indicator applet was corrupted or something so i had to delete it now my chat thing shutdown button and broadcast is gone off the bottom
[18:48] <nettezzaumana> zaccagnino: repeating your informative shallow q: won't get it fixed man
[18:49] <zaccagnino> well im kinda new to linux and thats all i really know about the problem
[18:49] <zaccagnino> i figure i just have to replace the file or something of that sort
[18:50] <nettezzaumana> zaccagnino: try to describe once more and with better precission what has happened and prove by exact error message or so
[18:50] <tew88> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1805649
[18:51] <tew88> If anyone had any suggestions, they'd be appreciated
[18:53] <trism> zaccagnino: sounds like you just need to add the indicator applet back to the panel (right click the panel, add to panel, indicator applet complete)
[18:53] <zaccagnino> Ok I was on my laptop last night I was running adobe flash, out of nowhere the shutdown options came up, my laptop died. I said screw it left come back today boot up and it says problem loading indicator applet complete. Now my Ubuntu username does not show up on my taskbar
[18:53] <zaccagnino> damn you i just got done typing
[18:53] <zaccagnino> well i was close
[18:53] <zaccagnino> but thanks
[18:54] <zaccagnino> didnt know what that thing was
[18:54] <trism> zaccagnino: sorry
[18:54] <zaccagnino> its ok seriously thank you I didnt even know about these panels things
[18:55] <f3bruary> and a ubuntu noob is born
[18:56] <zaccagnino> yes I sadly am a newb
[18:56] <f3bruary> no not sadly
[18:56] <f3bruary> it's good
[18:56] <zaccagnino> OK i got a tougher one
[18:56] <guesswho> we all start somewhere, and there's always more to learn :)
[18:56] <f3bruary> more people should use ubuntu, everybody starts as a noob
[18:57] <f3bruary> part of the experience
[18:57] <zaccagnino> sometimes when i boot my laptop it goes to a black screen turns the hd down and num lock and capslock blink
[18:57] <guesswho> for instance... what part of the OS processes the trackpad?
[18:58] <zaccagnino> Just to say I cannot explain that one further because thats all I know
[18:58] <trond-> Sometimes the X on my Ubuntu 10.04 running on Dell E4310 just reboots. Is there something I can look for somewhere? (logs etc)
[18:59] <f3bruary> yes you can look for logs
[18:59] <f3bruary> /var/logs/syslog
[18:59] <trond-> zaccagnino, so it is not a consistant behavior?
[19:00] <zaccagnino> usually i have to boot once cold boot then boot again and it will go fine
[19:00] <zaccagnino> so it is pretty constant
[19:01] <zaccagnino> itll freeze while shutting down to sometimes and i have let it go and it will eventually just kill the battery but the hard drive is not spinning
[19:01] <PaoloRotolo> #ubuntu-it
[19:01] <PaoloRotolo> sorry
[19:02] <blackops67> does anyone how to delete some of the apps that auto-runs w/ a fresh install of gdm?
[19:02] <guesswho> okay, so "Docky" just caused my trackpad to stop working
[19:03] <guesswho> i think it breaks whenever something hogs the cpu for a second
[19:03] <zaccagnino> It could be a laptop problem though because I looked it up and those lights are used for diagnosing problems, but this only happened when I installed linux I tried 3 distros before I gave up on the issue and stuck with zorin
[19:03] <guesswho> earlier it happened when firefox hesitated loading a page with some flash or something
[19:05] <guesswho> any ideas to restart the trackpad without restarting my session?

(or alternatively: are there precompiled packages?)
[19:06] <bad_alloc> vooze: install nvidia-current?
[19:07] <vooze> is that just the package namee bad_alloc ?
[19:07] <bad_alloc> vooze: yes.
[19:07] <vooze> bad_alloc, okay thanks i will try :) Doing after dist-upgrade to 11.10 alpha2
[19:07] <bad_alloc> vooze: btw, check on nvidia.com if your card is supported

[20:23] <zaccagnino> So I am new to Linux and have gone through and made my desktop as flashy as can be, so now after exploring more and more I found out I want widgets which puts me at a stand still and what seems to be a benchmark in my linux experience to explain I need to learn how to build a application from a tar ball. The one in question is found at "http://code.google.com/p/google-gadgets-for-linux/" if one of you fine ladies or gentlemen cou
[20:23] <zaccagnino> ld direct me to a place to learn step by step how to do this it would be much appreciated.
[20:24] <Boreeas> Wait a second
[20:24] <ChogyDan> Boreeas: well, it looks like you have it installed, the command I gave would confirm.  Make sure to remove icedtea java, and openjdk etc.     The alternatives stuff is a pain
[20:24] <Boreeas> Do I need to restart the computer before it updates?
[20:25] <ChogyDan> Boreeas: you don't know what I mean by alternatives, but it is a pain, easier to remove
[20:25] <Boreeas> How do I remove it?
[20:25] <Boreeas> apt-remove?
[20:25] <ChogyDan> Boreeas: sorry, gota run, maybe someone else can help, icedtea and openjdk
[20:25] <Boreeas> k, thanks
[20:26] <Boreeas> btw, apt-cache told me I have 6.26 too, so I guess the website is wrong
[20:26] <Boreeas> anyways, thanks for your help

[20:39] <Lkivagten> I need to compile / Makefile a driver for my dlink dwa-140 (ralink 2870). Along with the driver files are a textfile that tell me to change something in the makefile-file
[20:39] <abioticrhyme> I am trying to run Wireshark in Ubuntu 11.04 x64 and get the following error file.c:386:cf_reset_state: assertion failed: I searched on Google and did not find an answer to what was causing the problem. Can anyone help me? Thanks
[20:41] <f3bruary> hmm who can help me with energy consumption issues ?
[20:41] <sysdoc_> Having a lil trouble with Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) in Natty, is there someone with the right instructions for the firmware install
[20:41] <oCean> pooltable: first of all, I have to remind you that we cannot help you with illegal activities such as trying to run mac images on other than mac hardware
[20:41] <f3bruary> it's at 50% and I have 20 min left which is not normal
[20:41] <Lkivagten> i should do this: define the linux kernel source include file path LINUX_SRC
[20:41] <f3bruary> it's not the battery cause in windows it's fine
[20:41] <f3bruary> top shows nothin unusual
[20:42] <Lkivagten> if i look in makefile i can find a place called "ifeg" is this where i should change the text?
[20:43] <joeseph> I just installed 11.04 on an old desktop of mine, except it does not get to the desktop when I log in, just hangs.  What do I need to try?
[20:44] <f3bruary> joeseph: disable unity
[20:44] <coz_> Lkivagten,   do you have a link where you downloaded this driver from?
[20:44] <joeseph> f3bruary: As in, tell it to log in with "Ubuntu Classic?"
[20:44] <f3bruary> joeseph: yes
[20:45] <joeseph> f3bruary: That did it.  Thanks.
[20:46] <ehnde> does the majority seem to despise unity?
[20:46] <ehnde> i know i do
[20:46] <ehnde> great to try new things, but it's not comfortable to me like classic is
[20:47] <f3bruary> ehnde: haven't tried it but i'm not a big fan of eyecandy
[20:48] <f3bruary> prefer classic desktop
[20:48] <rhin01> why is ssh to a machine with 11.04 on it slower than a slower machine with 10.04 on it?
[20:48] <lldldldlooo> hi any ideas how to get gnome to recognise my nvidia geforce 8 200m g graphics display driver for 3d effects etc
[20:49] <usr> rhin01: Waht is slower about it?
[20:49] <pyroscope> rhin01: depends on the auth methods tried i guess
[20:49] <poindontcare> how do i find where apt-get installedsome software ? i installed imagemagick but it is not in my path
[20:49] <rhin01> logging in -- just seems slower to raise
[20:49] <lldldldlooo> tried compiz config in ubuntu which stuffed everything now in classic mode and still cant get 3d to work nuts
[20:49] <f3bruary> lldldldlooo: install nvidia drivers ?
[20:49] <rhin01> like 7 seconds slower
[20:49] <usr> poindontcare: imagemagic is a suite of image manipulation tools.
[20:50] <usr> poindontcare: man mogrify
[20:50] <usr> ... to start.
[20:50] <pyroscope> dpkg -L pkgname
[20:50] <sysdoc> !broadcom
[20:50] <poindontcare> usr: ah confusing i guess i am looking for convert
[20:50] <poindontcare> thanks
[20:51] <lldldldlooo> ne ideas?
[20:51] <cypha``> how do I make the out of grep scrollable?
[20:51] <cypha``> *output
[20:51] <usr> poindontcare: convert is there too.  example.  convert file.jpg file.pdf
[20:52] <jrib> cypha``: pipe to less
[20:52] <cypha``> how do u pipe?
[20:52] <jrib> cypha: grep foo bar | less
[20:52] <cypha> aah, cool
[20:52] <cypha> thanks
[20:53] <zaxius> i just installed ubuntu 11.04 and compiz isn't working.  help!  i tried compiz --replace &
[20:54] <lldldldlooo> yeah people stumbling into this and no help available just silence when something has been overlooked or messed up
[20:54] <lldldldlooo> dont advertise it though do they just how wonderful linux is. tchh
[20:54] <zaxius> but i want to get compiz to start on boot
[20:55] <zaxius> i don't know where to set that
[20:55] <crunchy_> can someone lead me in the direction of an irc channel where i can get some hard drive recovery help?!?
[20:55] <zaxius> but i figure i need to get it running through the console first
[20:55] <poindontcare> usr: that worked thanks
[20:55] <crunchy_> I posted on the ubuntu forums...
[20:55] <usr> NP
[20:56] <usr> crunchy_: free & open data recovery tool
[20:56] <usr> http://rstudio.org/
[20:56] <kierge> miro on ubuntu crashes for me all the time.  i'm using the external repository from miro themselves
[20:56] <crunchy_> thanks usr
[20:57] <Guest27415> how do I extract hdr from dell BIOS 1450_A05.exe ?
[20:57] <kierge> is miro also in the ubuntu repository perhaps that ones runs better ?
[20:57] <pooltable> ocean i understand
[20:57] <crunchy_> i will check that out.  the drive is recognized and named in ubuntu... but it will not mount. in windows, it just hangs on boot and then after boot hangs if i click on that drive
[20:57] <Guest27415> how do I extract hdr from dell BIOS 1450_A05.exe ?
[20:59] <tessarakt> Hi!
[20:59] <oCean> pooltable: ok, having said that, check these links and try to follow the steps. http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2009/03/22/how-to-convert-vmware-image-vmdk-to-virtualbox-image-vdi and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMagazine/HowTo/Switching_From_VMWare_To_VirtualBox:_.vmdk_To_.vdi_Using_Qemu_+_VdiTool
[21:00] <tessarakt> Can someone help me with a boot problem? I posted the description here: https://plus.google.com/100569900232995150169/posts/dbxVrgH7cio
[21:00] <fjorgynn>  :D
[21:00] <crunchy_> using gparted...
[21:00] <crunchy_> does anyone know
[21:00] <crunchy_> if the "check" option
[21:00] <crunchy_> will erase data from my drive if
[21:01] <crunchy_> the file system can't be read but the data should still be there?
[21:01] <brylie> !enter > crunchy_
[21:02] <crunchy_> ok
[21:03] <crunchy_> i just got yelled at by a bot lol
[21:03] <brylie> :-)
[21:03] <brylie> crunchy_, what format is the existing partition?
[21:04] <brylie> This forum thread may help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1746334
[21:05] <crunchy_> it was an ntfs... and it is a second drive where hdd1 has all my os and hdd2 has all of my pics/movies/docs/research
[21:05] <klj613> hi, im logged on a ubuntu VM as 'vmubuntulamp' and this user is in a group called 'www-data'. files created by apache states "Owner: www-data" and it says "You are not the owner..." whilst im in that group? -.-
[21:06] <crunchy_> brylie i will check that out thanks!
[21:06] <crunchy_> how is rstudio gonna help me out... never heard of it
[21:06] <wildbat> crunchy_: check out testdisk too
[21:07] <pyroscope> owner != group
[21:07] <crunchy_> is that a terminal command or a program?
[21:08] <wildbat> crunchy_: terminal
[21:08] <crunchy_> ahhh cool thanks...wildbat
[21:08] <wildbat> crunchy_: if you have spare drives ~ clone it first ~
[21:09] <crunchy_> I am really appreciating the help here... I have not used irc since like '98... glad people are still on it.
[21:09] <raven_> kdenlive: possible to generate custom time code insert?
[21:09]  * klj613 shakes head at permissions -.- time to enable root login on vsftpd (LAN server, so security not needed)
[21:09] <crunchy_> I dont really have one at the moment, but i will try to find one perhaps
[21:09] <worstadmin> Question: There's a project cobbler that is in the ubuntu repos (code has been ported to work on ubuntu) where can I find perhaps a git or patches of what's been changed by the ubuntu maintainer?
[21:10] <crunchy_> will testdisk ruin my drive by any chance
[21:10] <pyroscope> klj613: most ppl use 0777 if they have no clue how to do it right
[21:11] <pyroscope> worstadmin: get the src deb
[21:11] <worstadmin> pyroscope, Any other way?
[21:12] <netzaffin> hey, need a few hints, some keywords what for to search would be nice: i want to execute a php script a random times (not so many, e.g. 3 or 4 times) AT random times (e.g. betweet 8:00am and 10:00am). do you have an idea, how i can realize this? cronjob alone wont work
[21:12] <wildbat> crunchy_: may be but chance are slim ~ it is decide for restore deleted partition. always backup if you can
[21:12] <klj613> pyroscope: it a development LAMP server, and im fed up of ftp saying no permission and for me to go into the VM itself.. the files created by php is by third party toolS so easiest way is root access.
[21:12] <worstadmin> The project is split up into packages for ubuntu however the project source is alltogether in the git
[21:13] <pyroscope> netzaffin: at + some bash
[21:13] <crunchy_> wildbat: i will read about it more online.  just one more question for now.  I notice that my irc icon flashes when you message me. is that becuase you used my name in the message field
[21:14] <Ferius> hello guys. i have a lamp server on my virtual machine and i would like to knoe how can i reach /var/www folder from my windows os based computer
[21:14] <pyroscope> besides, you can easily put a random sleep in your script and start it via cron
[21:14] <Dr_Willis> Ferius:  set up ssh and use winscp - is one way.
[21:14] <Yota73> Hi all
[21:14] <Yota73> could anyone help me ?
[21:14] <zaccagnino> Where is this plasma widget browser I supposedly have, I can make panels and stuff but I want to add widgets to my desktop
[21:14] <Yota73> RAID 5 failure :-(
[21:14] <netzaffin> with sleep it will run out of execution time i think. the script itself is not hosted by be
[21:15] <wildbat> crunchy_: yes
[21:15] <crunchy_> wildbat: thanks!
[21:15] <pyroscope> run out of execution time?!
[21:15] <netzaffin> not?
[21:16] <Yota73> how cai i run a RAID array without a disk ?
[21:16] <Yota73> can
[21:16] <pyroscope> simply run a RAI
[21:17] <KrashKing> what are the suggested sytem rews for 11.04?
[21:17] <Yota73> seriously pyroscope ... my life is on these disks
[21:18] <Tigerboy> debian is partially psychotic
[21:18] <pyroscope> "run a RAID array without a disk" make no sense
[21:19] <pyroscope> *makes
[21:19] <Yota73> It's impossible to read my data until I insert a new disk ?
[21:20] <Yota73> but I read into the RAID install info that it's possible to boot from a degraded array
[21:20] <pyroscope> ok, so you have a raid5 with a failed disk, i guess. it should simply run, because it's there to exactly survive that.
[21:21] <Yota73> yes sorry
[21:21] <Yota73> 4 disk array  and 1 failyre
[21:21] <Yota73> failure
[21:22] <ronqbc> i don't understand why so many wbsites are designed like this , http://www.winehq.org/ the mentu is not united into one place but acattered
[21:22] <Yota73> I imagine that it will survive to a disk fail
[21:22] <Tigerboy> I realize this is Ubuntu but Debian irc is non-responsive -- has anyone happened to figure a way to get networking(just regular wired) working in the recovery mode. It works fine in non-recovery... also -- is there  a way to escape X ending in a nice full screen terminal?  ctrl-alt-backspace no longer works and gdm3 stop ends with no prompt---same thing in ubuntu
[21:23] <Yota73> but at boot it simply ask me to manually correct the problem or skip mount RAID
[21:23] <arnotixe> hi all after I installed ubuntu to a machine with ubiquity, is there a way to install openssh-server to the new system BEFORE rebooting?
[21:24] <Ferius> im thinking of going to use only ubuntu on my pc without any dual boot with windows, but there is one problem, i like Lineage 2. have anybody of you tried to run L2 on ubuntu 11.04 ? if yes, it is very hard or not? and one more question, is ubuntu 11.04 compatible with intel i7-2630qm and nvidia gt 540m 1gb hardware with sandy bridge technology? thank you for your answers and sorry for my
[21:24] <Ferius> english
[21:24] <Yota73> I try a mdadm --assemble --scan
[21:25] <Yota73> but it tell me that the device /dev/sdc it's busy
[21:25] <pyroscope> Tigerboy: ctrl alt f1
[21:25] <ronqbc> isn't it weird? linux users seek a lot of time consuming of their time finding solutions to things. while they could have tried to wait until linux is much better
[21:25] <ronqbc> it's better if///
[21:25] <ronqbc> you don't respond
[21:26] <ronqbc> me
[21:27] <arnotixe> ronqbc, we at least fix things. You come with solutions to non-existent problems = not useful.
[21:27] <fyrfaktry> Ferius: if you're a hardcore gamer, it's best to keep win dual-boot
[21:28] <ronqbc> arnotixe, i don't undersnad but never mind. linux is destructful for a better world. windows too. but hey. so many things are like that
[21:28] <sysdoc_> !su
[21:28] <arnotixe> hehe ronqbc you're out of options.
[21:29] <arnotixe> but it seems the system you're using for irc is working all right.
[21:29] <Ferius> furfaktry: i'm not hardcore gamer. i just like to keep in touch with my clanmates in Lineage in my free time. thats is only one game which i like
[21:29] <sysdoc_> !passwd
[21:29] <daGrevis> Hey there! Can someone help me install drivers for my fresh installed Xubuntu? I'm newbie...
[21:30] <ronqbc> arnotixe, i think it could be fixed if people weren't so 'arrogant'. well. for example it could be better if people never used the thing until it's more healthy for use. but people never check about destruct.
[21:30] <daGrevis> I got '01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] [1002:791e]' when executing 'lspci -nn | grep VGA'.
[21:31] <th0r> arnotixe: probably the hardest part of linux is learning not to feed the trolls
[21:31] <fyrfaktry> Ferius: looks like there are many google links about L2 on linux. it may run.
[21:32] <ronqbc> arnotixe, then. the destructful people tell you that i'm a troll
[21:32] <raven_> kdenlive: possible to generate custom time code insert?
[21:32] <daGrevis> Anyone, please?
[21:32] <Ferius> fyrfaktry: thank you, tomorrow i'll try to install ubuntu on my machine and try it. thank you again
[21:32] <klj613> how do i adjust the default chmod for files created by apache/php ? -.-
[21:33] <ronqbc> why to use ubuntu if you get so many erorr messages? why use it if a lot of hardware won't be supported?
[21:33] <ChogyDan> ronqbc: you should ask elsewhere, this isn't the place
[21:34] <ronqbc> ChogyDan, tommorow morning i will go at the street telling people all of this. where do you suggest me to tell this? in the forums?
[21:34] <shadu> could anyone help me with automounting my nas? the nas doesnt have a static ip.. it changes once in a while.. anyway to make it use the sharename/devicename instead of a ip?
[21:35] <pyroscope> klj613: /etc/apache2/envvars
[21:35] <wildbat> !ot | ronqbc
[21:35] <arnotixe> "it could be better if people never used the thing until it's more healthy for us"  - like windows XP?   I would recommend debian, they run very stable versions of things.
[21:35] <psusi> shadu, one normally does use the name, not the IP
[21:35] <Guest27415> how do I extract hdr from dell BIOS 1450_A05.exe ?
[21:36] <shadu> psusi but when i use the name in like the browser it doesnt work.. while when i do exactly the same in windows it does work
[21:36] <pyroscope> shadu: get your router or whatever runs dhcp to hand out static ips by mac
[21:36] <pyroscope> then edit /etc/hosts
[21:37] <ronqbc> wildbat, why that this would be a logged channel that you won't get a chance to talk about problems on ubuntu. who has decided that 'support' means technical help on;y and not support on ideas? ubuntu and linux need a better managment. much better.
[21:37] <cypha> how do I remove a directory that's not empty?
[21:37] <shadu> pyroscope, i do not want to do that, i want it to stay random.. windows is capable of handeling it perfectly fine, shouldnt ubuntu aswell than?
[21:37] <ronqbc> and also. i can't join off-topic
[21:37] <pyroscope> then check your dns settings on both machines
[21:38] <sysdoc_> ronqbc, you may have to have a registered nick
[21:38] <ronqbc> when someone is talking about important things he will be removed from the internet. how silly humans are
[21:38] <cypha> rmdir abc
[21:39] <shadu> pyroscope, the dns settings are exactly the same and they are from my provider and not my router..
[21:39] <ronqbc> sysdoc, usually i can join there but often the channel will be opened after a long time
[21:39] <sysdoc_> ronqbc, OIC
[21:39] <ronqbc> sysdoc, what?
[21:39] <pyroscope> rm -rf
[21:39] <sysdoc_> ronqbc, Oh I see
[21:40] <daGrevis> Hmmm... I did like guy in accepted answer suggested. http://askubuntu.com/questions/10044/bad-performance-with-ati-radeon-x1300 Dunno what will happen...
[21:40] <cypha> pyroscope, no rmdir ?
[21:40] <rugnur> hello people...
[21:41] <telxt> cypha $rm -rf
[21:41] <improveupon> my os keeps crashing. it stops responding, then the windows gray out, then if you click on a window it disappears. if you switch to a virtual terminal, you cannot log in: error at hard sector xxxxxxxx (2 subsequent sectors)
[21:42] <cypha> telxt, why not rmdir ?
[21:42] <rugnur> i have a problem with partitions, i received a message that says:"you have only 135 Mb" when I have got 29 Gb...How that could be?
[21:42] <rugnur> is there an error with the installation in windows?
[21:42] <telxt> go4 $man rmdir and there it says "rmdir - remove empty directories"
[21:42] <improveupon> excuse me... the window does  not disappear, the bar at the top does. the thing you move it around by
[21:44] <improveupon> and that is what is unique. has anyone else ever had that  problem? and so you have to kill the power manually
[21:46] <rugnur> any hint?
[21:46] <shadu> so... noone?
