[11:29] <rs0832> Jordan_U: ok.. i had never heard of that
[11:29] <rufra> Jordan_U rs0832: I'll mount  the drive and check I haven't made a mistake from the  grub.cfg
[11:30] <AdvoWork> is there a way to get the number(ie 777) from a file, for its permission?
[11:30] <rooks> dragonkeeper, mine tuner responds with http://pastebin.com/zGiFVepT
[11:30] <army> 1443 persons,oh ,my god!
[11:30] <rs0832> rufra: ok
[11:30] <Jordan_U> Callum__: rs0832: The recommendation of the grub developers is to never instsall grub to a partition, always to the drive (mbr+embedded area).
[11:30] <dragonkeeper> rooks  hmm ill try reinstall tvtime
[11:31] <Caelum> rs0832: I can ping it
[11:31] <Callum__> ...........
[11:31] <dnivra> !chmod | AdvoWork
[11:31] <Callum__> why does everyone get me mixed up with everyone else? =P
[11:31] <rs0832> Jordan_U: yep sorry about that.. my bad
[11:31] <Jordan_U> rs0832: np :)
[11:32] <rs0832> Jordan_U: :)
[11:32] <Caelum> Callum__: that happens to me too :)
[11:32] <Callum__> honestly, can't you guys read named properly? lol
[11:32] <rs0832> Raymond: any progress?
[11:32] <Raymond> rs0832: It shows as mounted (I'm using a netbook version of Ubuntu 9, the only one I had handy)
[11:32] <Callum__> names*
[11:32] <dragonkeeper> rook   seems it wont find a driver
[11:32] <dragonkeeper> rook  it has worked before :S
[11:33] <rufra> rs0832: Jordan_U: Sorry UUID does match. That grub is from the previous time I installed. I assume there was a new UUIC allocated when I reinstalled and formatted. However it does say insmod ext2 when it should read insmod ext4
[11:33] <rs0832> Raymond: sorry what shows as mounted?
[11:33] <gabi__> dd
[11:33] <Jordan_U> rufra: grub's "ext2" module handles ext2,3,4.
[11:34] <Callum__> Caelum: I bet you have your buzzer going off as much as I do then
[11:34] <Callum__> hate*
[11:34] <Callum__> ugh, typoing too much, need to sleep
[11:34] <rs0832> rufra: it is ok that it shows ext2
[11:34] <rufra> rs0832: Jordan_U: dont take my word for it here's a copy of the grub.cfg http://paste.ubuntu.com/543531/
[11:35] <Raymond> rs0832: the partition that I am trying to edit the file on.
[11:35] <rufra> rs0832: Jordan_U: ok then. Well still no idea as to how to make this boot/
[11:35] <rs0832> Raymond :  then cant you access it? from 'computer' ?
[11:36] <methylenedioxy> rufra is this is a fresh installation from a LiveCD you burned?
[11:37] <rufra> methylenedioxy: Yes, I am unable to boot after install keep on getting kernel panic. it reads something like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543122/ (minus a few typos on my part)
[11:37] <rs0832> rufra: try separate partitions for the mountpoints during reinstall
[11:39] <dnivra> i have a suspend/hibernate problem-my system manages to suspend/hibernate properly but when i try to resume, the system restarts instead. what could possibly be wrong? it used to work fine in earlier version of ubuntu i had. just doesn't work in 10.10. i'm running 64bit.
[11:39] <rufra> rs0832: ok so lets do the reinstall then,
[11:39] <Raymond> rs0832: I don't have a "Computer" like in regular Ubuntu, I can see and open the file via the file browser, but if I try to save, it won't due to the read only
[11:39] <rufra> rs0832: got the installer running, selected use internet, and install third party softw.
[11:40] <rs0832> Raymond: try opening the browser using gksudo nautilus in a terminal
[11:40] <Munger> Does anyone here use a touchscreen monitor?
[11:40] <rs0832> rufra: 10.10 desktop?
[11:40] <army> why my qq interupt frequently
[11:41] <rufra> rs0832: shall i specify partitions manually then? yes 10.10 desktop
[11:41] <rs0832> rufra: yes
[11:41] <rufra> rs0832: ok so what now? new part table?
[11:41] <rs0832> rufra: delete any existing ones
[11:41] <Raymond> rs0832: Eel-CRITICAL - no user shares available
[11:42] <rs0832> Raymond: o.o
[11:42] <rs0832> Raymond: didnt the gksudo gedit work then?
[11:42] <rufra> rs0832: ok, done
[11:42] <rs0832> rufra: how many partitions did you make? and what type?
[11:42] <rufra> rs0832: now add one partition and a swap area? or just the partition?
[11:42] <rufra> I havent made any yet
[11:43] <Raymond> rs0832: no, not able to get there via the CLI
[11:44] <rufra> rs0832: any recommendations?
[11:44] <army> a swap is needed
[11:44] <rs0832> Raymond: i'd recommend 1 ext4 for / and a swap.. swap can be around 1-2 gb
[11:45] <rs0832> Raymond: srry :)
[11:45] <tim> Anyone know how to get a Droid Incredible to connect as a drive or use with Rhythmbox??
[11:45] <army> 1G is  enough
[11:45] <rs0832> rufra: i'd recommend 1 ext4 for / and a swap.. swap can be around 1-2 gb
[11:46] <rs0832> Raymond: you are trying to edit fstab right?
[11:46] <Raymond> rs0832: Yes
[11:47] <rufra> rs0832: ok so here it is: 1 ext4 formatted primary partition and a 2 gig swap area
[11:47] <rs0832> Raymond: hmm...
[11:47] <rs0832> rufra: ok then proceed
[11:47] <rufra> rs0832: boot loader installed in /dev/sda etc
[11:47] <rs0832> rufra: ??
[11:48] <rufra> rs0832: sorry /dev/sda1
[11:48] <Raymond> rs0832: Thanks for your efforts, I'll call it a night for now and let you concentrate on the others here.. I'll be back again when I have a Ubuntu 10 live CD
[11:48] <rufra> rs0832: actually no.
[11:48] <rs0832> Raymond: ok :) sorry

[11:49] <rufra> rs0832: giving me error that no root is specified
[11:49] <rs0832> rufra: you have to set a mount point for /
[11:49] <rufra> rs0832: yep just realised :)
[11:49] <Raymond> rs0832: Don't be sorry, next time you'll be able to get it going for me :) - Thanks and bye till later..

[11:51] <rs0832> rufra: yep ok
[11:52] <sacarlson> shaggy2:  it must be that app security thing where an application is setup to only be able to access certain directories?
[11:52] <bibic682> anyone know why my hdd light would flicker ever 2 seconds continuously
[11:52] <gobbe> maybe your hdd is doing something?-)
[11:53] <dnivra> i have a suspend/hibernate problem-my system manages to suspend/hibernate properly but when i try to resume, the system restarts instead. what could possibly be wrong? it used to work fine in earlier version of ubuntu i had. just doesn't work in 10.10. i'm running 64bit.
[11:53] <sacarlson> shaggy2: maybe this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor
[11:53] <bibic682> probably but what when idle for extended time?
[11:54] <Tarfox> hey guys, im looking for a program like phpterm-0.3.0 but then so you can run commands like "top"
[11:54] <Tarfox> anyone has a suggestion for that?
[11:54] <jrib> Tarfox: I have no clue what phpterm is
[11:54] <shaggy2> ssacarlson: I'll give it ago, but I never installed no armor thingy
[11:54] <Tarfox> its a terminal emulator which is web based
[11:55] <sacarlson> Tarfox: that would be cool,  but maybe needs to be written in java or flash or something
[11:55] <Tarfox> http://phpterm.sourceforge.net/
[11:55] <Tarfox> is it possible in ajax you think?
[11:55] <Tarfox> i really need it but i want to be sure it doesnt exist yet before i write it
[11:56] <jrib> Tarfox: try #ajax maybe
[11:56] <sacarlson> Tarfox: so did you try that one?  seems you would only get an update of the screen if you asked for it or maybe ever X secounds
[11:57] <sacarlson> Tarfox: jrib: ya ajax would be perfect for that I think.
[11:57] <Tarfox> sacarlson: i tried phpterm but it says " TERM environment variable not set."
[11:58] <Jordan_U> Tarfox: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AjaxTerm
[11:58] <Tarfox> cool
[11:58] <sacarlson> Tarfox: this might work http://www.askapache.com/ajax/php-and-ajax-shell-console.html
[11:58] <Tarfox> ill check that out
[11:58] <Tarfox> thx
[11:58] <sacarlson> Tarfox: tell me how that goes
[11:59] <Tarfox> i will
[12:00] <Tarfox> Jordan_U: that looks great except for the fact that i want to run it trough apache, but ill look into it if i cant find anything else, thx!
[12:00] <Jordan_U> Tarfox: You're welcome.
[12:02] <shaggy2> sacarlson: I have checked the apparmor_status and vsftpd is not listed, from what I understand in the help doc you send me, if it's not defined in apparmor then apparmor does not controll that program
[12:02] <sacarlson> shaggy2:  that must be correct,  if not that what else could it be?
[12:03] <Tarfox> sacarlson, thanks for that link, however, it doesnt suit my needs. Much appreciated though!
[12:03] <sacarlson> Tarfox: what did or didn't it do?
[12:03] <Tarfox> its not a 'true' shell
[12:03] <Tarfox> as in i wouldnt be able to run vim trough it
[12:03] <shaggy2> I don't know captaintkirk I think it was helped me to get it working last time but I have a HDD fail and replaced it and I didn't see what he done last time
[12:04] <sacarlson> Tarfox: ok
[12:04] <sacarlson> Tarfox: but would work for like top?
[12:04] <Tarfox> nah
[12:04] <Tarfox> neither ;)
[12:05] <Tarfox> because you cannot update parts of the screen indipendently
[12:05] <sacarlson> Tarfox: wow then what good is it?  long ago I wrote my own in php alone but all is did was enable me to do like ls  and unzip  single line commands and see the results,  but that's all I needed at the time.
[12:06] <bluenemo> hi guys. i have an annoying problem with kmail. everytime i click on a link in an email, kmail opens abiword instead of firefox or empiphany. i didnt found the option to configure this, so i thought i'll ask :D do you guys know where to change this?
[12:07] <Tarfox> sacarlson, i know, those are easy to write :) Ive done it aswell eheheh
[12:09] <shaggy2> sacarlson: I worked out what was stopping me from writing via FTP, I had to edit /etc/vsftpd.conf and uncomment write_enable=YES, now it works thank you
[12:10] <sacarlson> shaggy2:  good to know,  I tried install that before and never got it to work,  maybe now I can

[12:28] <rs0832> sacarlson: mine shows the same.. probably different grub?

[12:28] <engin33r> I am using Phillips gogear
[12:28] <engin33r> yea crick i believe so
[12:28] <sacarlson> rs0832: ok,  well I'm running grub2 but on the older 10.04
[12:29] <crickj> some players need to be setup as a mass storage device instead of a music player
[12:29] <rs0832> sacarlson: ah.. we are using 10.10
[12:29] <engin33r> how do i do that crickj?
[12:29] <crickj> depends on the device - on mine I need to go through the settings menu on the player before plugging it in
[12:30] <bluenemo> hi guys. i have an annoying problem with kmail. everytime i click on a link in an email, kmail opens abiword instead of firefox or empiphany. i didnt found the option to configure this, so i thought i'll ask :D do you guys know where to change this?

[12:32] <crickj> have you tried the mount command?
[12:32] <rufra> rs0832: booting from live disk
[12:32] <sacarlson> rufra: does it boot in the single user or recovery mode?
[12:32] <engin33r> what do i type?
[12:32] <rs0832> rufra : k
[12:33] <crickj> mkdir mountpoint

[12:34] <engin33r> it says "special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist"

[12:37] <crickj> engin33r I guess that means that it does not recognise it as a mass storage device
[12:37] <crickj> can't help much more than that
[12:37] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, the 755 is correct thanks, but im doing the group changing, sudo chown root:root testing1.txt  but it gives: chown: changing ownership of `testing1.txt': Permission denied  any suggestions please?
[12:38] <rs0832> rufra: you have the sudo blkid output?
[12:38] <engin33r> how do i make it recognize then :(
[12:38] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: how is that posible?  sure your in the admin group?
[12:38] <rs0832> engin33r: maybe the device needs drivers installed (happened to my phone once)
[12:38] <maodun> What package should I grab to get terminfo?
[12:39] <rufra> rs0832: heres fdisk and blkid http://paste.ubuntu.com/543557
[12:39] <crickj> engin33r: if you find the device file of the device (/dev/sdxx) you can try the mount command again
[12:39] <engin33r> rs0832: where do i go about finding the drivers? the mp3 says its conneced to the computer

[12:39] <luky1jay> hey guys, i just did a fresh install of ubuntu and now when ever I boot, when grub should appear, it doesnt.. there is just a black screen with a white bar at top
[12:39] <rs0832> engin33r: they usually come on a disk with the player
[12:39] <crickj> if it uses the mass storage device protocol then the driver is built into the kernel
[12:40] <engin33r> i am pretty sure its mass storage
[12:40] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, definately, but: the directory the folder is within is a mount: //IP/testing /home/testing cifs exec  would that cause an issue?
[12:40] <engin33r> because when i used to connect it on my windows
[12:40] <engin33r> there would be adirectory called "media storage"
[12:40] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, just to confirm, i was running that command as root already :/
[12:40] <engin33r> mass media storage
[12:41] <crickj> engin33r: do you know what filesystem it uses?
[12:41] <luky1jay> what is the easiest way to reinstall grub for a live cd
[12:41] <maodun> oh, nm, it's part of ncurses-bin
[12:41] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: oh well part of it,  I think since it's cifs it must be mounted from a windows computers filesystem that doesn't have users and groups
[12:41] <sub-zero> hy everyone... I want to install video driver on ubuntu,and give me that error Creating directory fglrx-install

[12:45] <rs0832> rufra: ok.. lets try fixing the uuid problem if there is one.. can you post your new grub.cfg?
[12:45] <avinash_hm> hi, how to play 'Apple QuickTime movie' in ubuntu .. i tried with totem and vlc ... totem doesn't play .. in vlc only audio plays, video doesn't .. any help ??
[12:45] <jrib> bullgard: use "split" in linux, http://www.hjsplit.org/windows/ on windows (I think that should work)
[12:45] <uerceg> hello, I have edited grub.cfg (just aded vga=xxx at the end of kernel line) and did grup-update. after rebooting I get into gnu grub command line and can't boot to Ubuntu. how can I "undo" changes to grub.cfg from this command line (if possible)? how to boot Ubuntu? thanks.
[12:45] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, ive basically mounted from a freenas box share, the folders on there are exactly the same from OLD > NEW server
[12:45] <wildfire100> anybody help?????
[12:46] <johnbiker> hello
[12:46] <Pici> wildfire100: Your best bet for help with running software under wine would be to ask in #winehq and/or to check their appdb./
[12:46] <rufra> rs0832: new grub http://paste.ubuntu.com/543561/
[12:46] <wildfire100> ok
[12:46] <jrib> bullgard: or you could mess with zip
[12:46] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: frenas?  what format are the partitions in freenas?
[12:47] <karthee> hi .. Can I do  Passwordless  scp  via a load balancer. I hav 5 machines under a load balancer.  I want to scp (passwordless) files to those 5 in round robin fashion. Can i do that ?
[12:47] <johnbiker> how to make  the minimazes icons at right?
[12:47] <jrib> !controls | johnbiker
[12:47] <Xeross> So I did a gnome-keyring import Keyfile but the key still doesn't work
[12:47] <johnbiker> can anyone help me?
[12:47] <bullgard> jrib: I read http://www.hjsplit.org/windows/ in a hurry. I understood that this a Windows program. But my computer has Ubuntu only.
[12:47] <Skaperen> uerceg: did you press return or type linux ?
[12:48] <bullgard> s/this/this is/
[12:48] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, its just based on freebsd, nfs i think
[12:48] <jrib> bullgard: hjsplit does have a linux version if you check the site, but I suggested you use "split" on linux if you read my original message
[12:48] <uerceg> Skaperen: just typing "linux" says: no kernel specified
[12:48] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: well in any case it's still mounted from samba so the permisions will be controlled from the settings in the samba configs
[12:49] <jhonnyx> how can i upgrade my kernel from 2.6.35 to 2.6.36 ?
[12:49] <rs0832> rufra: your uuid;s seem to match now
[12:49] <wrd> uerceg: you should get grub into interactive mode then you get some kind of shell, you can boot the kernel from there then you can undo your changes on the system and reboot -> look it up in the grub manual
[12:49] <johnbiker> how i can move the minimize icon at left to right
[12:49] <johnbiker> ?
[12:49] <jrib> johnbiker: read what ubottu sent you
[12:49] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: the samba configs on your freenas server side
[12:49] <rufra> rs0832: yep. So still no closer to getting to boot. haha
[12:50] <uerceg> wrd: is that interactive mode sh:grub> command line?
[12:50] <johnbiker> ok
[12:50] <rs0832> rufra: maybe try booting from sda2
[12:50] <johnbiker> at terminal?
[12:50] <wrd> uerceg: looks like it haven't used it in years
[12:50] <jrib> johnbiker: if that's what ubottu's link tells you to do, sure
[12:50] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, its all the same ui think, can i find out what the numerical value of -rwxrwxrwx is?
[12:50] <Skaperen> wrd: grub as a manual inside its bootloader?  cool!
[12:50] <rufra> rs0832: ok how? changing the grub to?
[12:50] <johnbiker> can you send me the command line
[12:51] <johnbiker> ?
[12:51] <jrib> !controls | johnbiker
[12:51] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: and also by the partition format weather it's msdos or fat32 or whatever they might use on that side
[12:51] <jrib> !controls >  johnbiker
[12:51] <johnbiker> for interactive
[12:51] <avinash_hm> hey guys, any one able to play  .mov files [apple quicktime] in ubuntu ... not able to play with totem and vlc .. any help ??

[12:51] <physically_fit> hey, anyone having trouble with the latest firefox beta update? firefox 4.0b8pre is crashing like crazy after this morning update. crashes with every add-on. running in it in safe mode to delete those addons is not helping because it crashes too.
[12:51] <rs0832> rufra: but the best i can think of is a damagesd install disc
[12:51] <jrib> !restricted | avinash_hm
[12:51] <wrd> Skaperen: i think there is an interactive help by typing help, but the info pages are a lot more verbose
[12:51] <engin33r> damn it
[12:51] <engin33r> this sucks
[12:51] <rs0832> rufra: yes in grub
[12:51] <Skaperen> uerceg: normally it should be able to boot the default from command line, but your change may have hosed the setup
[12:51] <engin33r> can anyone please help me with this
[12:52] <jrib> engin33r: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[12:52] <Skaperen> uerceg: boot from live CD and go change the grub.cfg from there
[12:52] <engin33r> I have a philips gogear MP3 player and I am trying to add music to it but UBUNTU wont recognize it. the mp3 player itself says that its connected to the computer but I don't see it under media, and the mount command failed too.
[12:52] <uerceg> Skaperen: I have just added vga=784 to the end of kernel line. and now I don't get menu on reboot, just this shell. aha, okay, I'll try with livecd.
[12:53] <rufra> rs0832: what should i modify the grub setting to?
[12:53] <engin33r> I tried lsusb and it showed a Phillips device ..so i am guessing that it is connected?
[12:53] <Skaperen> uerceg: I'm looking through the grub.cfg I have ... those grub people have sure made a mess of what should be a simple boot loader
[12:54] <uerceg> Skaperen: indeed, and from this grub console, I can't even boot my Ubuntu, nor edit that grub.cfg file.
[12:54] <Skaperen> there is no longer any names associated with bootable entries
[12:54] <rs0832> rufra: set root='(hd0, msdos2)
[12:54] <Pici> johnbiker: ubottu has sent you the instructions on how to do what you need. The floodbot will not respond to you, as that is a bot, not a real person.
[12:55] <johnbiker> can anyone tell me whick command can i get my minimize.maximize and close menu at right like windows?
[12:55] <rufra> rs0832: kernel panic
[12:55] <Skaperen> if I ever build my own distro again, I won't use grub anymore
[12:55] <engin33r> anyone
[12:55] <jrib> johnbiker: I've told you twice now, why are you ignoring me?
[12:55] <rs0832> rufra: do you have more than one hd?
[12:55] <engin33r> What is echi_hcd?
[12:55] <johnbiker> what is hd?
[12:55] <johnbiker> hard disk?
[12:55] <Skaperen> well, I do use grub1 (ubuntu uses grub2) for my bootable USBs
[12:56] <mrstocks> I want my BitchX !
[12:56] <jrib> !bitchx | mrstocks
[12:56] <rufra> rs0832: nope
[12:56] <johnbiker> what is?
[12:56] <mrstocks> not cool
[12:56] <jrib> johnbiker: concentrate on your highlights
[12:56] <rs0832> rufra: o.o
[12:56] <engin33r> !echi_hcd
[12:56] <mrstocks> irssi its complicated
[12:56] <engin33r> what is !echi_hcd ?
[12:56] <Skaperen> uerceg: it used to be possible to type in all the menu entry things and it would boot ... but those are so complex now and you need to know your uuid, too
[12:57] <rufra> rs0832: here's the kernel panic with reovery mode on msdos1 http://yfrog.com/5rphotoaqj
[12:57] <Skaperen> uerceg: try typing "boot" and see if that does anything
[12:57] <physically_fit> mami
[12:57] <johnbiker> thnaks rufra
[12:57] <engin33r> aite this is not helping :( bye all ..i guess ima have to spend my day without music today
[12:58] <uerceg> Skaperen: nothing.
[12:58] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, if i paste something to pastebin, would you mind taking a quick look incase im missing something obvious please?
[12:58] <Skaperen> engin33r: oh the pain, the pain, no music, such pain
[12:58] <engin33r> lol shkaperen..i know :(
[12:58] <Skaperen> uerceg: :-(
[12:58] <rs0832> rufra: do you have another ubuntu cd?
[12:58] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: sure but I'm cooking popcorn so it might be 5 min
[12:58] <huligan> ciastko89
[12:59] <johnbiker> rufra? where i found command line for linux ubuntu?
[12:59] <rufra> yep. I have netbook and 10.04. However I'm re-dl the 10.04 LTS as it wouldnt boot
[12:59] <rufra> rs0832: yep. I have netbook and 10.04. However I'm re-dl the 10.04 LTS as it wouldnt boot
[13:00] <jrib> johnbiker: click on this link and do what it says: http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/move-buttons-to-right-side
[13:00] <rs0832> rufra: can you edit the boot menu entry and tell me what root='' is set as?
[13:00] <bullgard> jrib: You suggested 'use "split" in linux'. Ubuntu Maverick does not provide a package "split". What "split" do you mean?
[13:00] <jrib> bullgard: you already have split, it's part of coreutils
[13:01] <rufra> rs0832: root='(hd0,msdos1)'
[13:01] <uerceg> ništa, sprčim vas sve.
[13:01] <uerceg> .i.
[13:01] <rs0832> rufra: that is in the grub boot menu?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> !find split
[13:01] <rufra> rs0832: yep
[13:02] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: ok popcorn is done what did I miss?  I see no pastebin
[13:02] <rufra> rs0832: well.. I think its the grub options setting thing
[13:02] <rs0832> rufra: try setting it to sda1
[13:02] <rufra> rs0832: kernel panic
[13:03] <rs0832> rufra: did you try installing the netbook edition?
[13:04] <rufra> rs0832: nope, i was vain and didnt like the interface
[13:04] <adac> Does external software (software not installed via package manager ), even web interfaces go to /opt by default?
[13:04] <rs0832> rufra: just to test
[13:04] <rufra> rs0832: ok shall i do that now then?
[13:04] <jrib> adac: it goes where you want to put it.  Customary locations are /usr/local/ and /opt
[13:04] <rs0832> rufra: yep
[13:04] <Kostek> elo all
[13:05] <rufra> rs0832: set new mount pts again?
[13:05] <adac> jrib, /usr/local seems like a nice place :)
[13:05] <Kostek> elo
[13:05] <rs0832> rufra: yes preferably
[13:05] <Kostek> :D
[13:05] <jrib> adac: I use /usr/local/ for software with a "unixy" structure and /opt otherwise
[13:05] <Myrtti> !hi | Kostek
[13:05] <avinash_hm> jrib, thanks very much .. the problem is resolved ..
[13:05] <jrib> avinash_hm: cool
[13:06] <Kostek> yo Myrtti
[13:06] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, heres what ive been trying/testing, but it still wont work: http://pastebin.com/PJ2WLSa1
[13:06] <rufra> wait. Why dont  I try 10.04 first. Maybe 10.10 doesnt like my comp
[13:06] <adac> jrib, The software i want to install is twiki.
[13:06] <adac> jrib, guess it does not have unix style structure
[13:07] <Kostek> ahhahahahaha
[13:07] <BajK> I have two monitors connected, a LG W2453 and W2452 (both 24") connected to DVI. The 2452 (newer one) is the primary, the 2453 the secondary. Whenvever I switch the cables, only the now primary (which then is the 2453) displays something. The other is not recognized at all.

[13:08] <jrib> adac: I'm not familiar with it but it could just be something you drop in your DocumentRoot (/var/www by default)?
[13:08] <Kostek> j/j
[13:08] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: ok can you ssh into this freenas thing?
[13:08] <Myrtti> Kostek: are you done soon? did you have an Ubuntu related question?
[13:09] <Kostek> hi all
[13:09] <Kostek> leave all
[13:09] <rs0832> rufra: k
[13:09] <rs0832> rufra: can you tell me about your hd?
[13:09] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: when you say freenas side,  does that mean you ssh into it and that's what you see on that side?
[13:09] <adac> jrib, yeah i guess /var/www would not be a bad place for it, true
[13:10] <rufra> rs0832:umm... out of the box
[13:10] <Kostek> nie spamowac lamy!!!!!!!!!!!
[13:10] <rufra> rs0832: 160 gb
[13:10] <rs0832> rufra: raid?
[13:10] <johnbiker> rufra how i get compiz ?
[13:10] <Kostek> japa konie
[13:11] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, yea thats correct, ive ssh'd into it
[13:11] <{C}ronos> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[13:11] <rufra> rs0832 johnbiker : not raid my set up is an e machines ez1600
[13:11] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: and what do we see in freenas with sudo fdisk -l?
[13:12] <bassliner> hello, i'm getting the following conflicts when using aptitude show for ia32-libs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543574/ - any help what's wrong here?
[13:12] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: and what do we see on the freenas side int /etc/samba?
[13:12] <johnbiker> how i get on wireless password
[13:12] <johnbiker> ?
[13:13] <rs0832> rufra: i think its your kernel... you are trying 10.04 right? or did you try it before?
[13:13] <rufra> rs0832: I'm about to try 10.04
[13:13] <johnbiker> how i find wireless password?
[13:13] <rufra> rs0832: I updated kernel earlier and that didn't solve it
[13:14] <Myrtti> johnbiker: ask the admin of the wireless network
[13:14] <rs0832> rufra: no i think the prob is with the newer kernel :)
[13:14] <rufra> rs0832: is there a way of rolling back?
[13:15] <rs0832> rufra: yes but you need access to synaptic or apt
[13:15] <rufra> can it be done from the live disk?
[13:15] <johnbiker> how i can install windows program on linux?
[13:15] <SeySayux> Can I ask Ubuntu packaging questions here or is this solely a support channel for the OS?
[13:16] <sacarlson> rufra: no he still has version 22 installed
[13:16] <sipior> SeySayux: i think that would be fine
[13:16] <jrib> !wine | johnbiker
[13:16] <Myrtti> johnbiker: install wine first
[13:16] <rufra> sacarlson: yes after the last install. Earlier today (prior to that install) i updated to v23 still was unable to boot
[13:16] <jrib> johnbiker: ideally though you should look for linux alternatives before using wine
[13:17] <sacarlson> rufra: yes so you can pick v22 instead it's still there
[13:17] <SeySayux> I want to package my program for Ubuntu. Can I just leave the debian/ subdirectory in my source tree? It says something here about making a source tarball of the source before running dh_make.
[13:17] <sacarlson> rufra: menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-22-generic
[13:17] <jrib> !packaging | sacarlson
[13:17] <jrib> argh...
[13:18] <rufra> sacarlson: wait im lost. I manually upgraded to v 23 of the kernel
[13:18] <jrib> SeySayux: the above !packaging factoid was for you.  #ubuntu-packaging and #ubuntu-motu might be better places for help with particular packaging questions
[13:19] <AdvoWork> sacarlson, i havent got a /etc/samba and i cant do sudo fdisk -l either :s
[13:19] <sacarlson> rufra: unless you deleted the other kernel the files will still be there,  just change the default to boot the other,  you can try and verify in grub boot to test it frirst
[13:19] <SeySayux> jrib: okay, I'll check it out.
[13:19] <rufra> sacarlson: all files were deleted (I was asked to reinstall from scratch to no success)
[13:20] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: well I'm lost I know nothing of freenas,  I think the problem is on that side,  I could be wrong,  I have been before.
[13:20] <johnbiker> how i can get minimize.maximize and exit icons one the right?
[13:20] <jrib> johnbiker: have you read the link I told you about?
[13:20] <johnbiker> no help me
[13:20] <rufra> rs0832: any idea of how to get past the blinking underscore?
[13:20] <jrib> johnbiker: I can only help you if you do what I tell you to do.  Can you do that?
[13:21] <sacarlson> rufra: ok deleted gotcha ya I guess you will have to install the package then
[13:21] <johnbiker> know i don't understoond
[13:21] <johnbiker> no*
[13:21] <rufra> sacarlson: yep. So the question then becomes. can I downgrade the kernel via a live disk (seeing as the comp doesn't want to boot?)
[13:21] <johnbiker> do you know on command for that?
[13:21] <rs0832> rufra: after the boot or bios screen
[13:22] <rufra> rs0832: after boot
[13:22] <sacarlson> rufra: I'm sure you can,  the question is how
[13:22] <jrib> johnbiker: http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/move-buttons-to-right-side tells you to open Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal and enter the command: gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
[13:22] <akhg> hi i have installed evolution in my ubuntu 8.04 while configuring getting error as https://inowa.nvidia.com/exchange
[13:22] <rs0832> rufra: no kernel panic?
[13:23] <rufra> rs0832: i get the purple ubuntu screen, but it dissapears and then just the blinking underscore
[13:23] <rufra> rs0832: no kernel panic because live disk...
[13:23] <sacarlson> rufra: well if the live cd boots,  then maybe just copy the two kernel files into place and your set to go already have the entry in grub
[13:23] <rs0832> rufra: oh.. 10.04 right?
[13:23] <rufra> yep

[13:24] <rufra> sacarlson: 10.04 live disk isnt booting
[13:24] <johnbiker> can i work that program?
[13:24] <jrib> johnbiker: we don't support piracy here
[13:24] <sacarlson> rufra: if the grub entries are now gone then you will have to add an entry
[13:24] <rs0832> sacarlson: unfortunately the documentation for the ubuntu kernel panic error is minimum(only a definition)
[13:24] <rufra> rs0832: ok netbook edition here we go. at east that live disk boots
[13:25] <abc_> hao
[13:25] <sacarlson> rs0832: rufra: well you must know what worked before?

[13:28] <zengdelong> hh
[13:28] <rufra> rs0832 sacarlson: ok so how do i do that?

[13:32] <mitnick> hola
[13:32] <sacarlson> rs0832: I think that is a very good idea,
[13:32] <sacarlson> rs08 change the uuid to /dev/sdX
[13:32] <johnbiker> the commad of linux dekstop it is the same with command one linux server edition?
[13:33] <AdvoWork> on my ubuntu server in /etc/fstab i used to do: <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/Data/FILES/FILES/Postroom_Files/ /home/postroomcitylink nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr  which mounted fine, ive changed freenas boxes, and its now 207(ip) so im doing exactly the same but for the new ip, but sudo mount -a shows: mount: <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/Data/FILES/FILES/Postroom_Files/ failed, reason given by server: Permission denied   how can i find out more detail, as
[13:33] <AdvoWork>  in what the issue is?
[13:33] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes.. i told him to do it earlier but i told him to just add sda1.. i guess it requires even the /dev part
[13:33] <sacarlson> rs0832: seems we should have seen an error like can't find file or something if uuid didn't work but I still think it might work
[13:34] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ok im going to try rs0832's idea first. However do either of you know how to bring up the terminal in 10.10 netbook? i cant seem to find it
[13:34] <sacarlson> rs0832: yes it would
[13:34] <speedcat> hay i need some help i am trying to install neostats... but i am getting a error and i know i need to install something more... but im not sure what i need to install... http://pastebin.com/9Bn34EKK << thats what the compiler returns
[13:34] <rs0832> sacarlson: youre right .. did you get this - (originally got the idea from there) http://yfrog.com/5rphotoaqj
[13:35] <pratz> hey guys, this is what i am doing "ping 192.168.x.x" this connects but when i try to do "ping usr-desktop" this is not working, 192.168.x.x == usr-desktop, i mean to say some package to resolve local domain name to ip address??
[13:35] <sacarlson> rs0832: I have had problems with uuid in the past and done this fix and it has worked
[13:35] <rs0832> sacarlson: see the 2nd line... yes me too
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> pratz:  one way would be to edit your /etc/hosts to match the ip and hostname. but if the ips change. the file will be wrong
[13:36] <sacarlson> rs0832: no it's to small for me to read
[13:36] <bullgard> jrib: I managed to produce a zip file and another .z01 file which both are smaller than 20 MB. Let's hope that my friend can reassemble (unzip) them using Windows. --  Thank you for your help.
[13:36] <rs0832> sacarlson: there should be a magnifying glass below the pic
[13:36] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ive tried sda1 method doesnt work kernel panic again
[13:36] <johnbiker>  $ gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
[13:36] <pratz> Dr_Willis: thanks dude, but i have many machines and can not manually do it on each machine, do you can any app which can do this work ??
[13:36] <johnbiker> how can i get that
[13:36] <johnbiker> ?
[13:37] <sacarlson> rs0832: ok I zoomed in and that's what I would expect to see for a uuid problem not a panic
[13:37] <rs0832> rufra: did you put the whole /dev/sda2?
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> pratz:  that would be the work of a dns server i belive.. i only use small lans. so never needed to get into it in dept
[13:37] <rs0832> sacarlson: yep
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> pratz:   i always conect via ip anyway - rarely hostname. smbtree, or findsmb. can list machines and ips it sees.. may be other ways
[13:37] <rufra> rs0832: there is no sda2 only 1 and 5.. but i tried anyway
[13:38] <sacarlson> rs0832: that's why I didn't think this was a uuid problem to start with,  but It's much quicker to try than any other method
[13:38] <rs0832> rufra: sorry.. typo... i meant /dev/sda1
[13:38] <dnivra> hello. i have a suspend/hibernate problem-my system manages to suspend/hibernate properly but when i try to resume, the system restarts instead. what could possibly be wrong? it used to work fine in earlier version of ubuntu i had. just doesn't work in 10.10. i'm running 64bit.
[13:38] <rs0832> sacarlson, yes.. also doesnt the kernel have to atleast start loading in order to give a kernel panic?
[13:38] <rufra> rs0832: yep. Wait i do this at the grub and not the grub config yea?
[13:39] <sacarlson> rs0832: ya something would have to run,  maybe just random data caused it
[13:39] <pratz> Dr_Willis: yes you are correct, but i have round 25odd machines locally, so is it necessary to set up an dns server to just map ip addresses to it domain name ??
[13:39] <rs0832> rufra: its the same thing actually
[13:39] <rs0832> sacarlson: i was thinking, maybe separate mount points/
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> pratz:  not 100% sure. but i think somthing like a dns server will be needed.
[13:39] <rs0832> sacarlson: on separate partitions
[13:39] <rufra> rs0832: yea but i dont have a crashkernel command
[13:40] <sacarlson> rs0832: separate partitions of what?  /boot and /  root
[13:40] <rufra> rs0832: yep kernel panic
[13:40] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes because i think the kernel boots from /boot right?
[13:41] <rs0832> sacarlson: and the error is for root... seems weird to me
[13:41] <sacarlson> rs0832: rufra: grub.cfg I guess
[13:41] <rs0832> rufra: the crashkernel would be better disabled i guess
[13:42] <rufra> sacarlson, rs0832: ok, so I should boot into the live disk and then modify grub.cfg
[13:42] <pratz> Dr_Willis: thanks for you help, but i still think that just to map ip address to it local mahcine a dns should not be needed, there must be some script for it, if you find one then please dude
[13:42] <harmony1001> empathy 2.32.1 does not support the /msg command the command is not available when i type /help? how do i register my nickname?
[13:42] <rs0832> rufra: did the netbook load?
[13:43] <sacarlson> rs0832: rufra: problem with modify grub.cfg is when you grub-update I think it will be lost but before that it should work?
[13:43] <rufra> rs0832: yep. but i couldn't get a terminal. I didn't know where it was
[13:43] <rs0832> rufra: i dont know if it matters, but are you on 64 or 32 bit processor?
[13:44] <rugwiro> hello everyone!!
[13:44] <red2kic> netbook = 1386? Ya? No?
[13:44] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: but isnt the grub self generating? so if i modify the .cfg, when I update wouldnt the working setting stay?
[13:44] <rugwiro> i have a queastion i would like to ask
[13:44] <red2kic> rugwiro: Ask away.
[13:44] <rugwiro> i have a project that says that i have to make a linux virtual platform using PHP or JAVA is there anyone who can help me?
[13:44] <izwan> good night everyone
[13:45] <rufra> rs0832: 32 bit. and the kernel is 32 bit as well
[13:45] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes... but it is a fresh install so grub should be generating itself
[13:45] <rs0832> rufra: o.o
[13:45] <sacarlson> rufra: I'm not sure,  but if it fails in that event then you can add an entry in th 40_custom as I have done sometime in the past
[13:45] <dnivra> rugwiro, this is ubuntu support channel. perhaps ##php or #java would help better.
[13:46] <joe_9> have a secondary hard drive, and it is always dismounted when I  start ubuntu.  Is there a way it can be automounted?
[13:46] <rugwiro> ok
[13:46] <red2kic> !fstab | joe_9
[13:46] <rufra> rs0832, sacarlson: ok, brb going to boot the live disk and then edit the grub.cfg will report in 10
[13:46] <rs0832> rufra: k
[13:46] <rugwiro> but i would like to know some of the linux platform becouse i am new here
[13:46] <red2kic> joe_9: Edit /etc/fstab -- Do little read first. :3
[13:47] <joe_9> tyvm
[13:47] <rs0832> sacarlson: do you think using ext2 instead of ext4 would make a difference?
[13:48] <sacarlson> rs0832: I don't think so,  see what the live cd uses if it uses ext4 then it must be good to go
[13:48] <dnivra> rugwiro, well there's Red Hat family and Debian family. you should read about it. this might help http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=major.
[13:48] <rs0832> sacarlson: hmm
[13:48] <speedcat> hello... again i ask... can anyone tell me how to fix this error that GCC is giving me... http://pastebin.com/9Bn34EKK
[13:48] <johnbiker> how make fire on the screen?
[13:49] <sacarlson> rs0832: remember we do have a working version,  just study live cd envirnment and copy all it's setting as needed
[13:49] <rugwiro> ok thanks let me check
[13:49] <rs0832> sacarlson: yep....what about fstab?
[13:49] <Caelum> firefox doesn't use gnome's DPI settings, lame
[13:49] <sacarlson> rs0832: ya maybe change that to /dev/sdX also

[13:50] <christophe-marie> Hi, I have installed the inconsolata font (with aptitude install ttf-inconsolata). However it is not seen by X: 'xlsfonts|grep inconsolata' does not report any result. I have tried to update the font cache ('sudo fc-cache -fv') and even to do it after having updated font dirs ('sudo xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/truetype && sudo xset fp rehash'). 'locate inconsolate' reports no empty entries in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-inconsolata.
[13:51] <johnbiker> i install compiz setting manager
[13:51] <johnbiker> but doesen't have fire
[13:51] <sacarlson> rs0832: oh one other thing I didn't think of,  this is a notebook,  is he installing with a usb flash disk?
[13:51] <johnbiker> only water
[13:51] <dnivra> johnbiker, sure it has fire
[13:51] <rs0832> sacarlson: no.. a disk
[13:51] <rs0832> sacarlson: no.. a *disc
[13:51] <johnbiker> no
[13:51] <sacarlson> rs0832: a cd disk?  or a hd disk?
[13:51] <EB_> Help.  I just upgraded my Parallels Ubuntu 10.04 VM to 10.10 and now the GUI doesn't load.
[13:51] <johnbiker> i don't have
[13:51] <johnbiker> realy
[13:51] <johnbiker> really
[13:52] <rs0832> sacarlson: cd disc (hd = disk)
[13:52] <dnivra> johnbiker, i just painted fire now :)
[13:52] <johnbiker> ok
[13:52] <cl0ud-work> can someone help me with a resolution issue I am having with ubuntu/xbmc I have the log of xserver and also xorg.conf.
[13:52] <EB_> I tried the steps here but no luck: http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-start-the-gui-from-the-prompt-screen
[13:52] <sacarlson> rs0832: ok then nothing
[13:52] <johnbiker> how you paint fire now?
[13:52] <dnivra> johnbiker, System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager and explore it.
[13:53] <EB_> I log in and get a plain text eric@ubuntu:~$ prompt.
[13:53] <dnivra> EB_, type startx and it should start the GUI.
[13:53] <rs0832> sacarlson: all the solutions i have seen on forums, mailing lists, etc are either the fstab, the /dev/sda1, and down/upgrading/reinstalling the kernel
[13:53] <EB_> startX --> Fatal server error: No screens found
[13:54] <kriszty> hello. can someone help me out? it's about programming
[13:54] <red2kic> christophe-marie: "dpkg -L ttf-inconsolata"
[13:54] <soapcontainer> what are some recommended movie players for ubuntu 10.10? i'm currently using "movie player" which comes with the build
[13:54] <dnivra> EB_, seems like a display issue. perhaps someone else can help-i know nothing about display issues.
[13:54] <red2kic> soapcontainer: vl
[13:54] <Pici> !players | soapcontainer
[13:54] <soapcontainer> also just to clarify, i have no issues with "movie player" so far it works brilliant
[13:54] <red2kic> soapcontainer: vlc
[13:54] <kriszty> i have to make a web-based graph editor, which means it must run in a web-browser
[13:54] <bullgard> kriszty: Please put here in this channel a more specific question.
[13:54] <switch10_> soapcontainer: vlc
[13:54] <christophe-marie> red2kic: it shows various entries about /usr/share
[13:54] <soapcontainer> oh good vlc
[13:54] <johnbiker> what is the name of the bottom center menu with programs?
[13:54] <soapcontainer> ya vlc it is, no question, thanks
[13:55] <soapcontainer> i can't believe i didn't think vlc would be on ubuntu
[13:55] <soapcontainer> lol
[13:55] <red2kic> christophe-marie: Right. A list of files that are installed when you apt-get install the said package.
[13:55] <sacarlson> rs0832: I do remember fixing with a change to fstab at one point removing uuid,  but that was so long ago,  too many beers ago to remember
[13:55] <rs0832> sacarlson: :D
[13:55] <kriszty> i decided to use <canvas>, but my project is really complicated, and i have to implement various design patterns
[13:55] <soapcontainer> is the book of eli any good?
[13:55] <dnivra> speedcat, looks like a library is missing. install the missing library.
[13:55] <christophe-marie> red2kic: Do you want me to paste the output somewhere?
[13:55] <rufra> rs0832: what should i use to edit the grub.cfg?
[13:56] <kriszty> is there a way to use some oop language with javascript?
[13:56] <EB_> Is there a way in ubuntu 10.10 to let the OS let me use a six character password, as I did in 10.04?
[13:56] <sacarlson> rufra: gedit?  vi?
[13:56] <rufra> rs0832: i have it open in gedit but its read only
[13:56] <speedcat> <_< ok i will try to figure it out dnivra... any idea what library it may be?
[13:56] <dnivra> kriszty, this is ubuntu support channel. you should perhaps got to a proper channel.
[13:56] <rugwiro> i have tried to inslall SQL server 2005 but nothing is happening can you help with that??
[13:56] <rs0832> rufra: gksudo gedit
[13:56] <rufra> sacarlson: read-only
[13:56] <red2kic> christophe-marie: No need to. Did you check out !font though? You restarted the application you want to use the new font on?
[13:56] <sacarlson> rufra: sudo gedit filename
[13:56] <kriszty> ok, sorry, bye
[13:57] <dnivra> speedcat, no idea but i guess #gcc might help to figure out which. it seems like a perl library but no idea which specific one.
[13:57] <sacarlson> rufra: rs0832 ya his method gksudo
[13:57] <sub-zero1> hy everyone... I have one error with my video card. when I install the driver give me one error: Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install. what should I do?

[13:58] <rs0832> sacarlson: yep
[13:58] <red2kic> christophe-marie: Ah. I don't know about xlsfont or xft. Sorry.
[13:58] <sacarlson> rs0832: or shold we do one thing at a time?

[13:59] <rs0832> sacarlson: i think thats better:) so we know what exactly the solution is

[14:05] <red2kic> simon34: Use that. And find out how to convert to mp3 -- There! Make a script out of it.

[14:06] <dnivra> simon34, i don't think there's any software that let's you download directly as mp3. maybe some online services might exist.
[14:06] <simon34> is it possible?
[14:06] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: cant open grub.cfg this is my output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543602
[14:06] <rs0832> simon34: http://www.youtube-mp3.org/
[14:07] <sacarlson> rufra: try  just mount and see what is already mounted
[14:07] <rs0832> rufra: ok since you are on a live cd anyway, try sudo gedit
[14:07] <sacarlson> rufra: it might already be mounted in media
[14:08] <Abhish> Is a kernel module the same thing as a device driver?
[14:08] <sacarlson> rufra: in /media
[14:08] <mouka> Can someone please help with a suspend that doesn't work on my HP-6735 laptop?
[14:08] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: this is what i get http://paste.ubuntu.com/543603
[14:08] <ikonia> Abhish: it could be seen that way, but its also much more
[14:09] <Abhish> Got link?
[14:09] <mouka> anytime I close the lid of my laptop, it goes to suspend mode and I can't recover no matter what I did
[14:09] <ikonia> Abhish: what for ?
[14:09] <Abhish> explaining kernel modules.
[14:09] <ikonia> Abhish: there eis documentation on kernel.org
[14:09] <sacarlson> rufra: well you must have chroot already or it already works
[14:10] <dnivra> Abhish, i guess device driver is a kernel module.
[14:10] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: already on chroot
[14:10] <mouka> I have been trying to get some help with suspend, but no onde seems to be able to help
[14:10] <dnivra> Abhish, check out what ikonia said ^^.
[14:10] <mouka> hey ubuntu gurus
[14:10] <mouka> can someone help with a suspend function that doesn't work?
[14:10] <sacarlson> rufra: ok well then you can modify it as you had planed at /boot/grub.cfg
[14:11] <rufra> sacarlson: but there isnt a file in boot/grub.cfg
[14:11] <abstractstone> where do I get more folders for ubuntu?
[14:11] <rufra> sacarlson: that creates a new file..
[14:11] <sacarlson> rufra: oh but you can still give me the info for uname -a
[14:11] <dnivra> mouka, i'm having the same issue :). hope this helps you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1307618.
[14:11] <Abhish> Fantastic, thanks.
[14:11] <ikonia> abstractstone: more folders ?
[14:11] <abstractstone> I'm home I have documents, downloads, musec videos... but I want to make more with pictures on them
[14:11] <rufra> sacarlson: ok
[14:12] <sacarlson> rs0832: or is it too late to get uname -a?
[14:12] <ikonia> abstractstone: just right click and create a folder
[14:12] <sacarlson> rs0832: would that have changed with chroot?
[14:12] <abstractstone> oh cool!

[14:14] <rs0832> sacarlson: maybe if he overwrites the kernel on the hd with the one on the live cd? do you think it would work?
[14:14] <sacarlson> rs0832: yes that's what I suggested
[14:14] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: wait! shouldnt it read i386!
[14:15] <sacarlson> rufra: I'm not sure
[14:15] <cl0ud-work> can someone help me with a resolution issue I am having with ubuntu/xbmc I have the log of xserver and also my xorg.conf. Cant get ubuntu to display higher then 1024x768 when connecting it to my TV.
[14:15] <ben_> where are u?
[14:15] <rs0832> sacarlson, rufra, if you are sure your processor is 32 bit then yes
[14:15] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: i just thought that might indicate that its the 64 bit (maybe a mistake on my part?)
[14:16] <rufra> rs0832 sacarlson: yes its an intel atom.. fairly certain that's 32 bit only
[14:16] <cdbs> rufra: its fine, i686 is a subset of i386, barely any difference on modern CPUs
[14:16] <sacarlson> rufra: rs0832: if this system was a 32bit machine and you did try to install a 64bit kernel that would cause a panic
[14:16] <dnivra> rufra, if it's 64 bit, it'll show x86_64.
[14:16] <rufra> cdbs: thanks... thought it might have been a mistake
[14:17] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra cdbs: as it has been pointed out by these gentlemen it is a 32 bit
[14:18] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: so back to editing the grub?
[14:18] <rs0832> sacarlson, rufra,  yep
[14:18] <sacarlson> rufra: concure
[14:19] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ok so we were at the point where i was unable to edit grub.cfg
[14:19] <francesco_> ciaooo a tutti
[14:19] <francesco_> mi dareste una mano per piacere
[14:19] <rs0832> sacarlson, rufra,  some atom processors are x86_64 architec
[14:19] <sacarlson> rufra: cd /boot; ls
[14:19] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832:  it gives me a no protocol specified error and a gtk warking
[14:19] <jocrawfo> good morning everyone.  I just wanted to ask is there a way to store your users home directory on a USB thumb drive and if found have it use that otherwise use one on disk?
[14:19] <cmpayc> Hello. How do I enable non-English fonts in 10.10 console?
[14:19] <jocrawfo> I would like to be able to carry all of my settings etc with me and use any computer with Ubuntu to run it
[14:20] <rs0832> rufra,  try what sacarlson just said
[14:20] <jocrawfo> I thought about installing it as a bootable usb with persistance but that seems to be slow
[14:20] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832:  yep im in.. but still wont open link is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543611
[14:21] <sacarlson> rs0832: rufra: oh it's /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[14:21] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes why?
[14:21] <sacarlson> rs0832: I don't know that's were I find it on my system
[14:21] <sacarlson> rs0832: is that not the same as yours?
[14:22] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[14:22] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: yep we agree its in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[14:22] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: its just that i cant edit
[14:23] <nirazio> Hello can anyone help me???How to move the encrypted home directory to another partition?
[14:23] <dnivra> rufra, permisssions. you may not have write permissions on the file.
[14:23] <rs0832> rufra: use the file browser to go there
[14:23] <sacarlson> rufra: oh it's not running x server?
[14:23] <dnivra> rufra, try 'ls -l /boot/grub/grub/cfg'. the file has read permissions only by default.
[14:23] <sacarlson> rufra: so you need to edit with a none X server app like vi
[14:23] <rufra> dnivra: yep i tried in the file browser we're trying to edit it thought
[14:24] <sacarlson> rufra: or nano
[14:24] <DJRagingBull> booh
[14:24] <rs0832> rufra: yes.. try nano or vi
[14:24] <FelipeSalto> wich script i make download for sing on IRC?

[14:24] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ok lets say vi, do i get it frm the soft centre?
[14:24] <DJRagingBull> lol
[14:25] <sacarlson> rufra: it's installed default
[14:25] <rs0832> rufra: no need to i think
[14:25] <rs0832> rufra: just type sudo vi /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[14:25] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ok then so vi <blah blah>?
[14:25] <Myrtti> are you guys really trying to edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg and why?
[14:25] <madnick__> what is the room for desktop cube problems?
[14:25] <dnivra> nirazio, move it to a separate partition and then edit it in fstab to mount it as /home. but am not sure if it'll work since encryption's involved. just a suggestion.
[14:25] <dnivra> !ccsm | madnick_
[14:25] <iceroot> madnick__: #compiz
[14:26] <rs0832> Myrtti: kernel panic
[14:26] <Myrtti> rs0832: why not /etc/default/grub then?
[14:26] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: ok so now what do i change?
[14:26] <rs0832> Myrtti: just trying quick edits for solutions
[14:27] <sacarlson> Myrtti: we wondered about that
[14:27] <rs0832> Myrtti: apparently the uuid and /dev/sdxy is not being recognized
[14:27] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: yeah im in vi, ive got the grub, now what do i change?
[14:27] <sacarlson> Myrtti: I more back in the grub legacy time zone
[14:28] <rs0832> rufra: there is a uuid for root=''?
[14:28] <rs0832> rufra: there is a uuid for set root='' ?
[14:28] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832:  it gives as we saw before. so change it to /dev/sda1?
[14:29] <rs0832> rufra: yes
[14:29] <pucko-> what are the real advantages of grub2 compared to legacy grub? the new version just seem overly complex to me
[14:29] <dnivra> pucko-, new version removes a password reset exploit i know in grub and well you can boot iso's direct in grub2 too i believe.
[14:30] <sacarlson> Myrtti: oh for /etc/default/grub to work don't you need to grub-update?
[14:30] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: er... cant edit
[14:31] <pucko-> anyone actually tried booting an iso from grub2 in ubuntu?
[14:31] <rs0832> rufra: did you sudo vi?
[14:31] <sacarlson> pucko-: well the most important improvment is that no mater where the disk is physicaly it will be located and booted hopefully properly
[14:31] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: yep... sudo vi grub.cfg (ive chroot and cd)
[14:32] <sacarlson> rufra: can't edit with vi?
[14:32] <pucko-> sacarlson, oh.. how do you mean?
[14:32] <dnivra> rufra, did you check permissions on the file? by default, grub.cfg only has read permissions for all groups!
[14:32] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832: well i may be but its just i've never edited something in terminal
[14:32] <Jordan_U> pucko-: More reliability and flexability, internationalization including non latin characters like chinese and left to right ones like hebrew. A real upstream (grub legacy hasn't had an upstream for over 5 years). And a more clear system for configuring update-grub.
[14:32] <histo> Why would you want to boot a cd in grub anyways?  Why not just actually boot the cd.
[14:33] <sacarlson> pucko-: well like you could move a hd from sda1  to sdb1 and no matter if you had 100 hd installed it would boot normaly in any position
[14:33] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: how do I check permissions?
[14:33] <ArBuz2o0o> Siemka
[14:33] <pucko-> Jordan_U, it's definately not clearer for non programmers I would say
[14:33] <sacarlson> rufra: ls -l
[14:33] <dnivra> rufra, i asked you to do that already :). 'ls -l grub.cfg'.
[14:33] <pucko-> sacarlson, really? how does it do that?
[14:33] <shingen> histo: because you can boot from isos too
[14:34] <ArBuz2o0o> If anybady here have got account on demotywatory.pl please vote for me in competition. www.demotywatory.pl/user/ArBuz2o0o thanks from mountain ;)
[14:34] <Jordan_U> pucko-: I would bet that you don't actually know the drawbacks of update-grub in grub legacy. Did you know for instance that editing a menu entry manually in your menu.lst will break update-grub?
[14:35] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: sorry.... i get the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543617
[14:35] <pucko-> Jordan_U, yes, but isn't that a problem in new grub as well?
[14:35] <sacarlson> pucko-: each disk partition now has a unique id number when it is created so it just searches to see were every thing is located and mounts it all were it belongs
[14:35] <dnivra> rufra, there you go-it has read permission only. run 'sudo chmod 644 grub.cfg' and then you should be able to edit as root. do change the permissions back using 'chmod 444 grub.cfg' once you're done.
[14:36] <pucko-> sacarlson, pretty sure that uuid stuff was there in legacy as well
[14:36] <sacarlson> rufra: well if sudo vi don't edit it then it must be mounted as read only  try give us mount
[14:36] <Jordan_U> pucko-: Yes, but in grub2 it's explicit. The grub.cfg is read only, and configuration options for update-grub go in a separate file, /etc/default/grub, rather than being in comments-that-aren't-actually-comments like in the menu.lst with grub legacy.
[14:37] <sacarlson> pucko-: oh if that's the case then I'm not sure what is different
[14:37] <efaydian> anyone know a easy way to change your login screen?
[14:37] <dnivra> sacarlson, no need for all that. all that's needed is to change the permission using the command i gave ^^.
[14:37] <rufra> dnivra sacarlson rs0832: i get unable to resolve host when chmod
[14:38] <rs0832> rufra: what command did you use exactly?
[14:38] <Jordan_U> pucko-: It was common for users in grub legacy to not be able to boot after a major version upgrade because they thought that they could edit menu entries directly.
[14:38] <sacarlson> dnivra: rufra: he's right  even root can't edit it with those settings  change them to 777 or something
[14:38] <rufra> dnivra sacarlson rs0832: output here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543620
[14:39] <dnivra> sacarlson, not 777!!! 644 will do :).
[14:39] <pucko-> Jordan_U, my 10_linux entry is 157 lines long. :-(
[14:39] <godslam> If I'm using 10.10 server and I want to boot into an old kernel, how would that be done?
[14:39] <dnivra> rufra, try doing that without sudo since you are already root.
[14:39] <shingen> silly question, but why does icons / widgets on the top and bottom panel get moved around when changing the resolution and/or rebooting?  really annoying on laptops when docking / undocking
[14:39] <sacarlson> dnivra: agreed 644 is fine  rufra
[14:39] <Jordan_U> pucko-: Remove your old kernel packages.
[14:40] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok got it to change to 664
[14:40] <sacarlson> rufra: it should be editable now with sudo vi
[14:40] <rufra> now i mean 644
[14:40] <dnivra> rufra, do remember to change it back to 444 okay?
[14:40] <Psychedelic_Appl> Olá.
[14:40] <rufra> osacarlson rs0832 dnivra: will change back at end, made a note of it
[14:40] <Jordan_U> rufra: sacarlson: Why are you trying to edit the grub.cfg manually?
[14:41] <nirazio> Is it possible to install Empathy 2.32 in lucid??
[14:41] <impulse51> Is there a web page that has a listing of all codes that can be used for ubuntu ?
[14:41] <godslam> If I can connect to a server through SSH, but it's able to get updates, what does that mean?
[14:41] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: getting this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543621
[14:41] <pucko-> Jordan_U, I have. I'm just saying. that's not something you write from scratch. I'm sure it's cleaner and prettier and whatever, but it's way to complex compared to the old stuff.
[14:41] <dnivra> !codecs | impulse51
[14:41] <sacarlson> Jordan_U: because it can't boot the system after install to the hd,  it gets a kernel panic after install
[14:42] <shingen> chmod u+w is much easier to remember and you don't have to worry about the other bits either... :)
[14:42] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra Jordan_U: Ok. I think its time we al organised together what it is I'm meant to be doing
[14:42] <rs0832> rufra: did you close vi the first time?
[14:42] <Jordan_U> pucko-: I would disagree, but that's a matter of opinion.
[14:42] <nirazio> !info empathy
[14:42] <sacarlson> Jordan_U: so the plan was to try /dev/sdX instead of uuid
[14:42] <dnivra> rufra, have you opened grub.cfg anywhere else? if so close it.
[14:42] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: um i had another terminal but i killed it
[14:42] <nicofs> I want to install ubuntu on an ARM-Device (Toshiba AC100). I've managed to get a kernel that supports it, but it's nothing but the kernel as *.tgz, When I boot from it, all i get is a console. How do i add the ubuntu installer to it?
[14:42] <dnivra> rufra, delete the file as the error says.
[14:42] <madnick> m having problems with the 3d effect of my video card(i guess) who can help me
[14:43] <dnivra> rufra, or run 'vi -r grub.cfg'.
[14:43] <godslam> If I can connect to a server through SSH, but it's unable to get updates, what does that mean?
[14:43] <sacarlson> Jordan_U: but we have also now learned that the live cd that works uses an older version of the kernel at boot,  so that may be a point to try soon if this fails
[14:43] <rs0832> rufra: delete the swap file .. killing it must have left the file
[14:43] <bl01zk> Is it better to program in C in Linux or Windows?
[14:43] <dnivra> rufra, what you need to do is said in the error :).
[14:44] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok
[14:44] <rs0832> bl01zk: our opinion is it is better to do anything in linux... windows is just easier ;)
[14:44] <nirazio> Is it possible to install Empathy 2.32 in lucid??
[14:44] <buggyer> what do have to do if i want to have a script (only some commands line by line) have a return value of 0 (zero)?
[14:44] <rs0832> nirazio: i should think so.. can you find it from synaptic?
[14:44] <dnivra> nirazio, lucid has it's own version of empathy. why not use that?
[14:45] <madnick> m having problems with the 3d effect of my video card(i guess) who can help me
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> buggyer:  use exit 0 as the last command perhaps?
[14:45] <shingen> madnick: what video card?
[14:45] <dnivra> buggyer, a return value 0 indicates success usually.
[14:45] <bl01zk> rs0832 but like if i wanna run a program to a windows  7 would i have to recompile it in windows? or can i get it to be a .exe in Linux?
[14:45] <buggyer> Dr_Willis thanks, that could help me a lot :) im not into bash and stuff, but im going to :)
[14:45] <madnick> 8800gt
[14:45] <shingen> silly question, but why does icons / widgets on the top and bottom panel get moved around when changing the resolution and/or rebooting?  really annoying on laptops when docking / undocking
[14:46] <rs0832> madnick: try being more specific like errors or something
[14:46] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so how do i delete in vi?
[14:46] <dnivra> rufra, just type in ":recover" and press enter. that should do it i guess.
[14:46] <nirazio> dnivra: The thing is that, I'm really interested on using empathy 2.32, since it fixes a lot of bugs.
[14:46] <rs0832> bl01zk: i think you are talking about cross compiling (someone correct me if i am wrong) but it is more advisable to recompile
[14:47] <madnick> whenever i m trying anything that has 3d effect on the os like desktop cube or alt tab or running a game with wine the pc crashes and needs a manual restart
[14:47] <sacarlson> rufra: I forget the command that writes over but you can save to another name and mv it after exit
[14:47] <dnivra> nirazio, you can download the source and then compile it then. that'd best instead of using another version's packages.
[14:47] <bl01zk> rs0832: okay so if i write in in Linux will it compile perfectly fine in Windows??
[14:48] <dnivra> bl01zk, that depends on the compiler you choose-write for gcc and compile in turboC doesn't mean success.
[14:48] <nirazio> dnivra: But why not it's not getting upgraded to 2.32??
[14:48] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so the grub is going to let me boot yes?
[14:48] <rs0832> bl01zk: well.. there are some features you can add to your program that may make it incompatible with windows
[14:48] <dnivra> bl01zk, not always-there can be issues.
[14:48] <sacarlson> rufra: the :w filename  is what you can use to change the name temporary until you can mv it
[14:48] <Dcite> bl01zk: It'll only compile if the libraries used exist on both windows and linux. More likely you'll have to set custom DEFINEs to use different libraries with similar functions between systems
[14:48] <bl01zk> okay thank you everyone for the help :)
[14:49] <rs0832> bl01zk: also depends... some compilers dont work exactly like others
[14:49] <dnivra> nirazio, well it is updated in the latest version on ubuntu. i guess they didn't backport it :).
[14:49] <Pici> !latest | nirazio
[14:49] <Dcite> bl01zk: As for while developing..more linux users probably have a compiler than windows users :)
[14:49] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: i think i messed up the grub... I changed permissions back and rebooting
[14:50] <nirazio> dnivra: Alright from where i can get the source??
[14:50] <efaydian> anyone familiar with editing .desktop files to change your LoginWindow?
[14:50] <sacarlson> rufra: I'm not sure what all you changed in it at this point
[14:50] <dnivra> nirazio, from their website i guess.
[14:50] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: i dont think its changed anything
[14:50] <rs0832> rufra: still kernel panic?
[14:50] <sacarlson> rufra: ok well no harm done then
[14:50] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: lets get back to what the problem is... i cant boot after install (not even recovery mode)
[14:51] <madnick> whenever i m trying anything that has 3d effect on the os like desktop cube or alt tab or running a game with wine the pc crashes and needs a manual restart
[14:51] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: kernel panic as usual
[14:51] <sacarlson> rufra: and now we know that a working version of the kernel is 22 as seen in live cd boot
[14:51] <rs0832> sacarlson, dnivra: is it possible for him to overwrite the installed kernel with the livecd one?
[14:51] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: any other ideas for booting?, yes we are working with v22
[14:51] <sacarlson> rs0832: yes I beleave so
[14:52] <shingen> madnick: what video card & what driver are you using?
[14:52] <madnick> nvidia 8800gt and the drivers are260.19.26
[14:52] <dreams> i cant install ubuntu on my localdisks on my win7.its coming an error when i enter the middle of the installation
[14:52] <rs0832> rufra: i think you should try overwriting the kernel with the live cd one
[14:52] <dnivra> rs0832, sacarlson rufra i think an easier thing would be to install a new kernel and run 'update-grub2'? that should detect the new kernel i guess.
[14:52] <murder`> hello, how can enable my ethernet card in ubuntu?
[14:52] <rs0832> dnivra: he cant boot
[14:53] <stianhj> Is there any way to get Notify-OSD to stack messages rather than queue them?
[14:53] <sacarlson> rs0832: at this point it maybe easier to change the name temporarily of the kernel and just position it in the correct location since it seems it was so hard to edit,  I think it was also a mistake to chroot in that last attempt
[14:53] <avinash_hm> hi guys, in my ubuntu internet is working fine ... i can go to google, medibuntu ... but when i do ping from cmd line it isn't working .. more logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/543628/ ... is there anythingi have to install .. any help ??
[14:53] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so new grub or kernel?
[14:53] <dnivra> rs0832, rufra i don't think overwriting it a good idea. can't he just chroot into it and install?
[14:53] <rs0832> dnivra: any ideas on how  to do that is appreciating
[14:53] <dreams> i cant install ubuntu on my localdisks on my win7.its coming an error when i enter the middle of the installation any one help
[14:53] <shingen> why does icons / widgets on the top and bottom panel get moved around when changing the resolution and/or rebooting?
[14:54] <skullboy> ok how do i fix my software index
[14:54] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so will you guys take me through what i need to do?
[14:54] <shingen> avinash_hm: your dns isn't setup correctly.  check /etc/resolv.conf to see what you have set for your dns servers
[14:54] <sacarlson> dnivra: I guess that would work,  how does grub work it just look to see what files are there and auto creates a menu addition so that should work shouldn't itr s0832?
[14:54] <nunson> Is there another fix for Steam running terribly slow except switching to metacity?
[14:54] <rs0832> rufra: yep
[14:54] <skullboy> ok how do i fix my software index
[14:55] <Inferus> um, grub needs programming afaik sacarlson
[14:55] <Inferus> to tell it on what partitions there is what
[14:55] <zws> 嗨
[14:55] <shingen> avinash_hm: you can also try pinging something locally by it's IP address, e.g. your gateway router or your next hop out, to verify if network connectivity is working.
[14:55] <sacarlson> Inferus: afaik?
[14:55] <dnivra> sacarlson, as far as i know :)
[14:55] <Inferus> afaik = as far as i know
[14:55] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra:  ok so booting into the live cd
[14:55] <rs0832> sacarlson: it searches for kernels
[14:55] <skullboy> ok how do i fix my software index
[14:55] <rs0832> sacarlson: and appands the entries based on those
[14:56] <madnick> nvidia 8800gt and the drivers are260.19.26
[14:56] <dnivra> !patience | skullboy
[14:56] <dreams> hello how i backup my default system and destribute itas live cd
[14:56] <skullboy> so they are not ignoring me
[14:56] <Derick> hello
[14:56] <Derick> after I've downloaded source with "apt-get source php5" — which tool/command do I run to apply all patches (without building the package)
[14:56] <red2kic> !remaster | dreams
[14:56] <sacarlson> rs0832: ya so we just copy the two files from the live cd /boot of version 22 into /boot  on sda1  and chroot and grub-update
[14:56] <dnivra> skullboy, if you'd kept repeating a few mreo times, they would have :). i guess few already have.
[14:57] <dnivra> more*
[14:57] <red2kic> ubottu: Wakey wakey.
[14:57] <shingen> skullboy: you could also try rephrasing the question
[14:57] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes so then update-grub should pick them up
[14:57] <TiMeTeLl> Anyone get MOL working on Ubuntu?
[14:57] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra:  In the terminal on the live cd
[14:57] <dnivra> sacarlson, copy sounds fine to me. guess it should work rufra rs0832
[14:57] <sacarlson> rs0832: yes then at boot he still has to manualy menu to the version 22 to boot and test it
[14:58] <dreams> red2kic i downloaded it but there is no area to modify startup logo etc....any other tools
[14:58] <wtrhaewtjetj> is there someone here
[14:58] <rs0832> sacarlson: yes
[14:58] <skullboy> ok so my software index is corrupt how do i fix it i tried sudo apt-get install -f
[14:58] <dnivra> wtrhaewtjetj, there are 1504 people here in varying states :)
[14:58] <red2kic> dreams: Modifiy your OS -- When it's ready, remaster it.
[14:59] <sacarlson> rs0832: dnivra rufra: so do we all concure?
[14:59] <rs0832> sacarlson: yep:)
[14:59] <dnivra> sacarlson, i doubt we have any other choice other than to try :)
[14:59] <wtrhaewtjetj> well, I am just discovering it, I have never use IRC
[14:59] <kcorcoran> i have several TGZ files i need to unzip; they are located on my flash drive.  i know how to create a batch file to unzip multiple files, but how can i redirect them to unzip in another location, rather than on the flash drive?
[14:59] <dnivra> !remaster | dreams
[14:59] <sacarlson> rufra: your the boos
[15:00] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: to be honest i may be the boss but you guys are the brains
[15:00] <dnivra> wtrhaewtjetj, oh! welcome to IRC. you have a problem with ubuntu, ask and if somebody knows they will help.
[15:00] <bandeira> kcorcoran, tar zxvf *.tar.gz
[15:00] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: im implicitly trusting you to help me boot. so whatever you three agree to ill do
[15:00] <rs0832> rufra: :)
[15:00] <dreams> how can i modify my ubuntu9.10
[15:00] <dnivra> rufra, experiment is the way to knowledge :). that's what i always do :)
[15:01] <murder`> hello, how can  i enable my ethernet card in ubuntu?
[15:01] <kcorcoran> bandeira:  that will unzip them to their current media, the flash drive...i want them to unzip to my hard drive
[15:01] <dnivra> dreams, i thought i already told you?
[15:01] <dnivra> !remaster | dreams
[15:01] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: so lets go do something to the kernel
[15:01] <skullboy> ok so my software index is corrupt how do i fix it i tried sudo apt-get install -f
[15:01] <rs0832> rufra: yes.. booted into the live cd?
[15:01] <dreams> remaster,but there is no option to modify startup logo and other things
[15:01] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: now lets see im in the live cd and in terminal
[15:01] <dnivra> skullboy, try 'sudo apt-get update' might work.
[15:02] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: do i now mount the hd?
[15:02] <sacarlson> rufra: mount yes chroot at this point NO
[15:02] <bandeira> kcorcoran, hmm.. i see.. try to tar zxvf *.tar.gz /tmp
[15:02] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so mount /dev/sda1 /mnt is the code im typing in now
[15:03] <sacarlson> rufra: ok
[15:03] <rs0832> skullboy: any error message?
[15:03] <skullboy> nope
[15:03] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so now i mounted...
[15:03] <dreams> anyone know how to modify ubuntus startup logo icons,etc....
[15:03] <skullboy> E: The package caine-from-deb needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[15:03] <skullboy> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[15:03] <dnivra> !paste | skullboy
[15:04] <rs0832> skullboy: check if there are .deb files in /var/cache/apt
[15:04] <Jemt> Hi. There is a bug in the Wiki. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization refers to a file called "isolinux/text.cfg" - it's actually called isolinux/txt.cfg, which puzzled me a bit. Can someone fix the typo ? I hate the fact that I have to register to contribute
[15:04] <rs0832> rufra: now you need to copy the kernel from the live cd to the hd
[15:04] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so to copy the kernel, how do i do it?
[15:04] <sapphz> anyone got any idea how to get php ldap up and running?
[15:04] <dnivra> skullboy, open synaptic package manager and it probably would report errors.
[15:04] <sacarlson> rs0832: rufra: ok so were are those file we want to move  I guess just copy all file found at /boot   to /mnt/boot  cp -a /boot/* /mnt/boot/*
[15:05] <skullboy> yep alot
[15:05] <dnivra> sacarlson, i don't think all will be needed.
[15:05] <USS_OHIO> ok heres an easy one for you guys/girls. now that im using ubuntu, when i dl games off the net i should dl the mac version right?
[15:05] <sacarlson> dnivra: true
[15:05] <dnivra> USS_OHIO, mac is not ubuntu. they're very different.
[15:05] <red2kic> USS_OHIO: No. Linux.
[15:05] <avinash_hm> shingen, i think n/w is proper coz i can connect to any website .. i am using mozilla with which i can browse to google, medibuntu ... checked /etc/resolv.conf .... looks good .. they are @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/543636/ ...
[15:05] <rs0832> dnivra: any suggestions on which ones?
[15:05] <USS_OHIO> oh, so i gotta dl the windows version and run it with playonlinux?
[15:06] <sacarlson> rs0832: all that have .22 in them?
[15:06] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so to copy which is the command?
[15:06] <red2kic> USS_OHIO: Depends on what game we're talking about.
[15:06] <dnivra> rs0832, well all files that have the version number shown in 'uname -a' should do i guess.
[15:06] <red2kic> !appdb | USS_OHIO
[15:06] <USS_OHIO> eve
[15:06] <ttiicc> Im working with gnome on Ubuntu 10.10 wonder which other desktop environment you guys would recommend if I would like to have a more eye-candy desktop?
[15:07] <dnivra> sacarlson, rufra rs0832, well all files that have the version number shown in 'uname -a' should do i guess.
[15:07] <red2kic> USS_OHIO: Have you consider dual-boot or adapting an extra HDD (if you're on a computer)? That way, you can fly away in your tiny spaceship.
[15:07] <rs0832> dnivra: so all except the memtest ones
[15:07] <USS_OHIO> ya i got wine, but ive tried a couple programs and they look like they are running in windows 3.0
[15:07] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra:  yes but how do i copy?
[15:07] <skullboy> yep alot
[15:07] <dnivra> rs0832, all that have the version number. yeah i guess that translates to the same-non memtest ones.
[15:08] <dnivra> sacarlson, rufra rs0832, all that have the version number. yeah i guess that translates to the same-non memtest ones.
[15:08] <USS_OHIO> ya im running dual or whatever, with wubi
[15:08] <leftist> they work uss_ohio
[15:08] <kcorcoran> bandeira:  here is my command; it does not work - $ for z in *.tgz;tar zxvf $z ~/Downloads/temp/ ;done
[15:08] <sacarlson> rufra: cp -a filenames   will make a copy and keep owner and permisions the same
[15:08] <USS_OHIO> ok ill reattempt this
[15:08] <sacarlson> rufra: cp -a fromfile tofile
[15:08] <guerby> hi, I'm running ubuntu 10.10, I'd like to switch the machine to server only (no X), is there a way to do that?
[15:08] <red2kic> USS_OHIO: Most people use Windows or Gaming Consoles to meet their gaming needs.
[15:09] <rs0832> USS_OHIO: do you want to run games or programs?
[15:09] <bandeira> kcorcoran, is it only .tar ? so try "tar xvf *.tar /tmp"
[15:09] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra:  ok so cp -a /boot/* /mnt/boot/
[15:09] <rufra> ?
[15:09] <dnivra> guerby, you could stop running the GUI and enable CLI login only i guess?
[15:09] <rs0832> rufra: yep
[15:09] <Ub3r-N00b> hey there, one stupid question - has anyone tried the "spinning cube effect" on obuntu with multiple screens, if yes how is it performing ?
[15:09] <bandeira> kcorcoran, are you trying to create a shellscript?
[15:09] <dnivra> rs0832, that copies memtest right?
[15:09] <guerby> dnivra, that's what I want to do but I don't know how to do that properly
[15:09] <kcorcoran> bandeira: no, they are tgz files
[15:10] <dnivra> rufra, rs0832 sacarlson ahh what does it matter. do it rufra.
[15:10] <rs0832> dnivra: oh yeah sorry i saw only the command
[15:10] <sacarlson> rufra: we have some disagreement as to all but I guess it will just create more menu items if we do all of them
[15:10] <red2kic> guerby: Server kernels are different than desktop kernels. You could delete everything -- but it would be much easier to do a clean server installation.
[15:10] <rs0832> rufra, dnivra, sacarlson: yep he can leave out the memtests
[15:10] <leftist> is there any upgrade for 10.10? this is just a test system we use here.
[15:10] <kcorcoran> bandeira:  i have serveral TGZ files i would like to extract the files and place the content to my hard drive
[15:10] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok so let me confirm: cp -a /boot/* /mnt/boot/ is the correct code?
[15:10] <dnivra> red2kic is right. if you want to make it a server, best to install server edition.
[15:10] <rs0832> rufra, dnivra, sacarlson: they might overwrite the existing ones
[15:11] <leftist> one of many
[15:11] <guerby> red2kic, hmmm seems lots of work. I wonder if there's an apt-get xxx that does it all
[15:11] <nirazio> dnivra: Can you help me to install empathy from its source????
[15:11] <dnivra> rs0832, but they'd be the same right? memtest files?
[15:11] <rs0832> nirazio: you can find a deb for it
[15:11] <sacarlson> rs0832: so what they might work and we know the ones that are already there don't
[15:11] <dnivra> nirazio, there should be a readme file in the source
[15:11] <rs0832> rufra, dnivra, sacarlson: i m not sure... if they are then its fine
[15:11] <bandeira> kcorcoran, ok.. you tried "tar -zxvf *.tgz /tmp"  and it doesn't work, does it?
[15:12] <red2kic> guerby: It is not lot of work. What are you trying to accomplish?
[15:12] <dnivra> rufra, sacarlson rs0832 shall we move to another channel? a temporary one maybe-this channel seems over crowded.
[15:12] <claudio_> ciao a tutti
[15:12] <sacarlson> rs0832: oh but no turning back if this fails
[15:12] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: ok which channel?
[15:12] <rs0832> rufra, dnivra, sacarlson: yes i think we should:)
[15:12] <dnivra> rufra, sacarlson rs0832 #rufra :D
[15:12] <rufra> sacarlson rs0832 dnivra: 8)
[15:12] <USS_OHIO> mostly games
[15:13] <guerby> red2kic, I have my machine setup graphically but from now I want to only use it through ssh and have no use for X/desktop/etc
[15:13] <claudio_> scusate l ignoranza ma non sono pratico da qui si possono scaricare film???
[15:13] <Pici> !it | claudio_
[15:13] <Myrtti> !it | claudio_
[15:13] <kcorcoran> bandeira:  no, tar -zxvf *.tgz does not work
[15:13] <red2kic> guerby: Minimal installation, perhaps?
[15:13] <red2kic> !minimal | guerby
[15:13] <sacarlson> rufra: ok I'll try #rufra
[15:13] <nirazio> dnivra: I followed that and this is the error "***Error***: You must have glib-gettext >= 2.2.0 installed"
[15:13] <rs0832> USS_OHIO: it is a better idea to run windows games on windows.. but if you want a free alternative to windows try reactos.. it should run windows games
[15:13] <red2kic> guerby: You start off in a console after when you completed the installation.
[15:14] <bandeira> kcorcoran, what does it show on your screen?
[15:14] <RonaldJ> Is it possible to read the mac-address of a other PC in the lan?
[15:14] <claudio_> ciao a tutti
[15:14] <USS_OHIO> there only one exe program i have that i need to be able to run in ubuntu. im just trying a new game out. games come with a linux version when you dl them aye?
[15:14] <claudio_> scusate non sono pratico ma da qui si puo scaricare come da mirc ????
[15:14] <sacarlson> I'm now in #rufra room
[15:14] <guerby> red2kic, I'd like to avoid redoing an install and loosing the current setup
[15:14] <sipior> RonaldJ: sure, have a look at the man page for "arp"
[15:14] <sacarlson> opps wrong server
[15:14] <rs0832> sacarlson: :)
[15:14] <USS_OHIO> honestly im trying to get away from windows as far as i can
[15:14] <rs0832> sacarlson: check again
[15:14] <Pweg> USS_OHIO, not all of them, many are windows compatible only. Fortunately that's what programs like Wine are for
[15:15] <rm_work> I run Eve on Wine and it works great :)
[15:15] <rs0832> USS_OHIO: then try reactos
[15:15] <dnivra> nirazio,  that's the problem. see the glib-gettext might be installed but that version might only be there in maverick and not lucid.
[15:15] <USS_OHIO> reactos?
[15:15] <kcorcoran> bandeira: tar: e000n10.tgz: Not found in archive - repeative
[15:15] <USS_OHIO> *digging*
[15:16] <neiz> USS_OHIO: what game is it? I'm able to play WoW and StarCraft II very well through wine
[15:16] <nirazio> dnivra: I am installing it from source..
[15:16] <mikeg3> Newbie question  -- how do I run an executable in Meerkat?  The icon looks like a pink diamond.
[15:16] <USS_OHIO> im trying eve online, i downloaded the mac version. im working on getting the windows now
[15:17] <coconutz> is there a alternative service for dns manager for dyndns ?
[15:17] <resno> mikeg3: well, if you want to make it executable do "chmod +x progam.sh
[15:17] <Vardan> hi all
[15:17] <resno> coconutz: sure, but its likely a paid service
[15:17] <Pweg> Eve has a silver ranking in Wine, so it should run pretty smoothly
[15:17] <dnivra> nirazio, yes but glib-gettext is a dependency. try 'sudo apt-get build-dep empathy'
[15:17] <dnivra> nirazio, i think that's the right command and i hope it works.
[15:18] <red2kic> guerby: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/prevent-xorg-from-starting-in-linux/

[15:18] <Vardan> people I need application that I give diff file and the file on which the patch should be applied (or the application will find the needed files from current folder) and shows the result. any suggestion?
[15:18] <Vardan> 'meld' not help
[15:18] <dreams> anyone tell me i cant install on ubuntu on my localdisk,a error is coming
[15:18] <guerby> red2kic, thx!
[15:18] <dnivra> !error | dreams
[15:18] <rs0832> nirazio: do you want empathy 2.32 deb?
[15:19] <nirazio> rs0832: Yes
[15:19] <RonaldJ> sipior as far as I can see it is not possible to get the hardwareaddress of a hostname with arp
[15:19] <rs0832> nirazio: did you get my dcc?
[15:19] <sipior> Vardan: does "patch --dry-run" not do what you want?
[15:19] <sipior> RonaldJ: and what exactly have you tried?
[15:19] <nirazio> rs0832: Sorry i din get
[15:20] <murmurs> hello
[15:20] <sipior> RonaldJ: "arp -a" will list the full cache. ping the host to ensure that its entry sits in the local cache.
[15:20] <RonaldJ>  sipior looked at the man-page and search or "ubuntu get hwaddr from ip" with Google
[15:20] <Vardan> sipior, no :( it
[15:20] <dreams> when i install ubuntu inside windows on my localdisk "f" an error is coming   and the installation is stoping,the ubuntu is not installing on my localdisk except c:/
[15:20] <Vardan> it's write 'Hunk #1 FAILED at 53.'
[15:20] <w3rdn4> what is a program that can recover deleted files on a portable usb thumbdrive ?
[15:20] <red2kic> guerby: You're recommended to back up ~/home and /etc -- As to preserve your configuration files.
[15:20] <sipior> RonaldJ: go back and read that man page again.
[15:21] <sipior> RonaldJ: or just see what arp -a prints.
[15:21] <guerby> red2kic, will do :)
[15:21] <RonaldJ> sipior see it. thanks
[15:21] <sipior> Vardan: try applying the patch with the appropriate "-p" switch.
[15:21] <murmurs> I'm a newbie to LAMP and I'm wondering what the best - most secure - way to connect a php page to a MySQL database?
[15:21] <dreams> any one know
[15:22] <murmurs> in ASP I used to use #include(...) to include the connection at the time of serving the page.
[15:22] <Vardan> sipior, the same error
[15:22] <murmurs> I tried to do the same in PHP but the connection doesn't seem to initiate.
[15:23] <sipior> Vardan: may simply be that the patch does not match the current source.

[15:26] <telmessos> hi all. I want to learn if it is possible to make a partition on my hard disk after the system install? 138 GB of HDD is assigned for /home on my hard disk I want to divide another 40 GB? is it possible ?
[15:27] <red2kic> telmessos: Get on LiveCD. Install "gparted" (Gnome Partition Editor) and you can partition. The hard drive need to be umounted. You can't partition a live system. :)
[15:27] <shingen> telmessos: yes, gparted will allow you to resize partitions not in use
[15:28] <saliak> I've got a robot I've built with linux as it's heart.    I want to be able to play back video to that display, even if i, say, ssh in.  How would I do that?  You can see the bot at http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/n7mVsDp1YbFHudAOW6ZG2Kzpo1osxbf79B3D02-9d8A?feat=directlink
[15:28] <telmessos> red2kic, that's what I thought. But another thing on my mind is if I resize that partition I will lose the information on it. Right?
[15:28] <telmessos> thanks shingen
[15:28] <telmessos> ;)
[15:28] <Jemt> Hello. I want to automate the Ubuntu installation by using preseeds. How can I identify the names of the questions asked in d-i (the Debian/Ubuntu installer) ? The Wiki describes many of them, but I'm not sure they are all there.
[15:29] <dreams> when i install ubuntu on my localdisk f:/  an error is coming  "an error has setting the element data,request not supported"what is this error anyone explain
[15:29] <Jemt> Perhaps it's possible to have Ubuntu write each "label" to the console while installing, to figure out what's going on ?
[15:29] <aeon-ltd> Jemt: if you want a custom install, use remastersys or just clonezilla an exisiting iso
[15:29] <dreams> when i install ubuntu on my localdisk f:/  an error is coming  "an error has setting the element data,request not supported"what is this error anyone explain
[15:29] <xxthink_> what does this error msg mean?
[15:29] <xxthink_> http://pastebin.com/JcuT9Fhf
[15:29] <LukeL> telmessos gparted can safely resize without any data loss
[15:29] <Jemt> aeon-ltd: Sounds interesting, I'll look into that. Thanks
[15:29] <USS_OHIO> how do i make it so it doesnt show people joining and leaving in this IRC im using the Xchat right now cause i didnt wanna have 20 dif irc programs
[15:30] <Etherael> Hi guys, latest automatic ubuntu upgrade took me to 2.6.32-26-preempt (from 2.6.32-25-preempt) and has broken ati fglrx support, going to hardware drivers does not show the ability to re-enable it, anyone know what this is about / hoe to fix it?
[15:30] <red2kic> telmessos: I don't think so. In fact, I'm uncertain about how Ubuntu (or any Windows or Mac partition editors) deals with existing information As long as you don't resize the partition smaller than used-files partitions.
[15:30] <soreau> saliak: through ssh youd do something like DISPLAY=:0 same_video_player /path/to/video.ext

[15:31] <telmessos> Lukel: /home folder of my user is using the partition which I am planning to make changes on.
[15:31] <telmessos> so I  hope you are sure :)
[15:31] <saliak> soreau : oh, so display :0 is always the local head that's on the machine?
[15:32] <soreau> saliak: Not necessarily, its just the default display X runs on
[15:32] <red2kic> USS_OHIO: You also can modify XChat theme. I have them on really light gray so it does not bother me much. :)
[15:32] <telmessos> thanks. bye for now. :)
[15:32] <shingen> telmessos: as long as you umount the partition and don't turn off the power gparted can resize without data loss :)  if your partition is corrupt in any way, it'll recommend running ext2fstools first
[15:32] <red2kic> shingen: Too late. :<
[15:32] <saliak> soreau: I see. so I ssh in text (w/out X forwarding on).  then, if I set DISPLAY = :0 it's the head of the machine?
[15:33] <USS_OHIO> of all the things i clicked on, thanks found it

[15:36] <sbalmos> morning. Been reading around about doing this, but was wondering if there was anything specific for Maverick... The infamous issue of getting PulseAudio to output to ESD for FreeNX audio streaming to work.
[15:36] <saliak> soreau : the program that actually launches the video may be run in an ssh terminal
[15:37] <shingen> saliak: you could always run vlc in your gnome desktop as it has web controls to display any video you want...
[15:37] <shingen> saliak: not the answer you want, but a good workaround :)
[15:38] <dajhorn> Etherael: fglrx is probably better tested with the -generic kernel.
[15:38] <dreams> when i get a errpr when i install ubuntu on my localdisk f you can view the error at  http://imagebin.org/127882  and help me to getrid of this
[15:38] <USS_OHIO> ok when you mount a file. if i just right click and create a new one is same as mounting one in terminal?
[15:38] <saliak> shingen : I was thinking VLC probably did what I wanted with some set of options.  is it possible to stream to VLC?  like, i could run a "server" in the desktop that's open and displayed, and from some other terminal, stream the video to it?
[15:38] <Etherael> dajhorn: the generic kernel randomly dumps ath9k wlans and does not pick them back up without a reboot.
[15:39] <soreau> saliak: Yea so if DISPLAY is not set (it isnt set by default in ssh terminal) then you will need to set it. Otherwise just run some_video_player /path/to/video.ext
[15:39] <dajhorn> Etherael:  Try your luck with maverick-proposed.    2.6.35-24-generic is current.
[15:39] <shingen> saliak: sure can, you can control it remotely via it's web interface and you can definitely stream content to it
[15:40] <Etherael> dajhorn: if it's that or manually hacking the ati drivers from the shell package and disabling updates, I'll go with the latter.
[15:41] <saliak> shingen : cool. i'll check that out.  thanks!
[15:41] <dajhorn> Etherael: maverick-proposed is eventually rolled into maverick-updates.  Try not to strand yourself.   Doing upstream installs for things like fglrx and nvidia-current tends can sometimes leave turds in the system that cause problems later.
[15:41] <shingen> saliak: you wouldn't be trying to make a bot like from the tv show big bang theory, would you? :P
[15:42] <Etherael> dajhorn: Isn't maverick still in beta?
[15:42] <dajhorn> Etherael: Nope.  Maverick is the current release.
[15:43] <dajhorn> Etherael: If you want to track the latest fglrx releases, then this is easier than doing an upstream install:  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates
[15:43] <Etherael> dajhorn: Is there a way to upgrade from an already active lucid install or do I need to download a maverick iso and reboot from it etc?
[15:43] <frxstrem> if I have configured my wireless network in GNOME and uninstall ubuntu-desktop, will I still be able to connect to it (from the command line)?
[15:44] <saliak> shingen: dunno, I don't watch TV :) reading wikipedia, i'm not sure what the robot looks like.  this one is for a science museum in idaho.  we make lots of big robots www.xitome.com :)
[15:44] <jessyroo> whats the off topic channel
[15:44] <aeon-ltd> !ot
[15:44] <dajhorn> Etherael: If you were'nt prompted for the Maverick upgrade, then run this at a prompt:    `gksudo update-manager --check-dist-upgrades`
[15:44] <mouka> Can someone please help me with "suspend". I have suspend working when I close the lid of my HP laptop, but when I resume, all I get is a black screen.
[15:45] <mouka> anybody has had a similar issue and knows a fix
[15:45] <mouka> I would appreciate any input from you guys
[15:45] <shcherbak> dajhorn: is not lucid LTS?
[15:45] <dajhorn> shcherbak: Yes, Lucid the the most recent LTS.
[15:46] <Etherael> dajhorn: in progress, thanks.
[15:47] <dajhorn> Etherael: Welcome.
[15:47] <Etherael> isn't lts long term support? and wasn't it supposed to be only .04 releases were LTS?
[15:47] <Pweg> etherael: think so
[15:47] <Etherael> I just actually had to enable "normal distros" in update manager to even see maverick
[15:47] <abstractstone> in the Places menu there are some folders... but can I add a new one to that?
[15:47] <Etherael> it wasn't coming up when I had "Lts releases only" selected.
[15:47] <shingen> Etherael: every two years... 10.04, 08.04, 06.04... 12.04 is next lts
[15:47] <Pici> Etherael: LTS releases come very two years.
[15:47] <Etherael> so I'm pretty sure mavreick isn't LTS.
[15:48] <dajhorn> mouka: Post the model number of your computer.  You're more likely to get help if you provide this kind of information.
[15:48] <red2kic> abstractstone: Open any random folder -- Check Bookmark menu.
[15:48] <Jeruvy> shingen: actually it was 6.06 ;)
[15:48] <shingen> Jeruvy: yup, whoops :)
[15:48] <abstractstone> thank you red2kic !
[15:48] <freq9> it seems like my firefox isn't using the new ubuntu font anymore. any clue how to fix that?
[15:48] <bastidrazor> abstractstone: in nautilus you can drag and drop a folder there
[15:48] <mouka> I have an HP-6735b laptop. The suspend works, but resuming from suspend does not. All I get is a black screen when I try resuming after suspend.
[15:49] <mouka> The HDD seems te resume work as well as everything else, but screens stays black
[15:49] <abstractstone> bastidrazor: I tried that but it didn't accept it :S
[15:49] <mouka> anybody has had a similar issue, please let me know what you did to fix this issue
[15:49] <mouka> Thanks
[15:49] <shcherbak> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[15:49] <tapas> what's a good way to allow a user to automatically run a script upon boot?
[15:49] <dajhorn> mouka: Several instances of this model on LaunchPad...  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/390827
[15:50] <Kyle__> how do you install without supurfulous dependencies, like postfix for smartmontools.
[15:50] <tapas> [with user permissions]
[15:50] <shcherbak> sorry, fallin on keyboard
[15:50] <Pici> tapas: Have them put it in their crontab for the time @reboot
[15:50] <tapas> Pici: thanks
[15:50] <bastidrazor> abstractstone: drag and dro the folder to the left bar in nautilus, not the actual places menu in the panel
[15:51] <tapas> Pici: or was that a joke?
[15:51] <tapas>  :D
[15:51] <Pici> tapas: No, I'm not joking.  Does that not do what you wanted?
[15:51] <tapas> [can't find it in manpage of crontab]

[15:52] <sam16> slow booting ..... how to make it faster?
[15:52] <Kyle__> dajhorn: Those weren't the recommends, those were requred.  Other things were recommended.  Unless I missed something.
[15:53] <Emmanuel_Chanel> Hello! / Labas!
[15:53] <Kyle__> those were listed as "The following extra packages", with others listed as "Suggested" which weren't installed.
[15:53] <dajhorn> Kyle__:   If a package has a dependency that you want to avoid, then you need to do something like `dpkg --force-depends`.
[15:54] <dajhorn> Kyle__: This is almost always the wrong way to do something, however.
[15:54] <Kyle__> dajhorn: Yea, I know.
[15:54] <sam16> slow booting ..... how to make it faster?
[15:54] <cmpayc> Hello. How do I enable non-English fonts in linux console for 10.10?
[15:54] <sam16> guys need help slow booting ..... how to make it faster?
[15:54] <abstractstone> ubuntu it is the best :)
[15:55] <dajhorn> Kyle__:   smartmontools doesn't directly depend on postfix.    You probably want to install a lightweight or dummy MTA instead.
[15:55] <sipior> sam16: what does slow mean, in this case?
[15:55] <kcorcoran> am attempting to unzip several files from one location to another location.  i have figured out how to unzip several files (using a wildcard).  how do i redirect the output to another location?
[15:55] <Kyle__> dajhorn: Ahh, it did work.  The wording of apt-get's messages made me think those were requred, not suggested.  Thank you.
[15:55] <dajhorn> Kyle__: Welcome.
[15:55] <Kyle__> dajhorn: I want no MTA on these boxes.  They're netbooting lab machines.
[15:56] <sam16> i mean during starting ubuntu that black screen lost for longer  period
[15:56] <cmpayc> kcorcoran: cd to that location and unzip/7z from there?
[15:57] <Kyle__> sam16: Longer period than what?
[15:57] <kcorcoran> cmpayc:  can you shed more light?  i know how to untar the files, but not sure of the switches to redirect the output
[15:57] <sam16> than before.... its doesnt starts in 17 seconds
[15:57] <dreams>  doyou know any tools to modify my default ubuntu completely and distribute it as livecd,iwant to doit for my institution,iwant to change starting logo,change color of login box etc....help meeeeeee
[15:58] <dreams>  doyou know any tools to modify my default ubuntu completely and distribute it as livecd,iwant to doit for my institution,iwant to change starting logo,change color of login box etc....help meeeeeee
[15:58] <ThunderStruck> Isn't that what the ubunto sofware center is for?
[15:58] <Kyle__> sam16: Well what changed?  Maybe you changed something.  Maybe some bios settings changed.
[15:58] <Pici> !remaster > dreams
[15:58] <sam16> kyle: now wat to do ?
[15:59] <skullboy> i am a kickstand in your mouth
[15:59] <Pici> skullboy: excuse me?
[15:59] <sipior> skullboy: powerful imagery.
[15:59] <brontoeee>  my audacity is missing 'save as' menu (the entire menu line), how to fix that?
[15:59] <sam16> is there any remedy for that ?
[16:00] <Kyle__> sam16: Figure out what changed.  Read /var/log/syslog to see if there's anything breaking.
[16:00] <dreams> there is no option to modify starting logo, login box etc..any one know the toll for doing that
[16:00] <skullboy> Do animals believe in God?
[16:00] <Kyle__>  /ignore skullboy
[16:00] <Kyle__> Ahhh.
[16:00] <mouka> My cpu fan is always ON
[16:00] <Pweg> skullboy, you may be in the wrong channel for that kind of discussion
[16:00] <Pici> skullboy: This is a support channel, please stay on topic.
[16:00] <shingen> yay, skullboy is quoting Marilyn Manson... *SNORE*
[16:01] <cmpayc> kcorcoran: I wasn't talkind about any switches. Just cd to where you want to unpack to, unpack the archive, cd back if necessary.
[16:01] <Kyle__> mouka: Good, then your CPU won't overheat.
[16:01] <mouka> how can I adjust it?
[16:01] <skullboy> i wanted to see if anyone would notice
[16:01] <mouka> Kyle__: funny!
[16:01] <Kyle__> mouka: I know I kill me.  Is it a laptop or a desktop?
[16:01] <mouka> Kyle__: laptop, HP-6735b
[16:02] <cmpayc> kcorcoran: Any reason this doesn't suit you?
[16:02] <Typh> ugh. Maverick CD boots up, then says "(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system"
[16:02] <mouka> it becomes annoying after a while, the fan is blowing cold air.
[16:02] <kcorcoran> cmpayc:  i don't want to unzip the files to there current location and i don't want to copy them to the destination first.
[16:02] <mouka> Fan should be turned on only when CPU starts heating up
[16:02] <sam16> kyle: is there any thing i can make it work from terminal?
[16:03] <Kyle__> mouka: Generally if Ubuntu has support for the driver that controlls that, it's automatic.  Since it's obvious not this time, you may have to look up your specific model, see if there's a driver package to install.
[16:03] <shingen> kcorcoran: just be in the destination directory and use the full path to the source files to unzip...
[16:03] <kcorcoran> i want to mass unzip several (100's of files) at once from my flash drive to my local drive.
[16:03] <sam16> kyle: i mean any command
[16:03] <Kyle__> mouka: Sometimes you can do it from the BIOS, but not always.
[16:03] <kcorcoran> cmpayc:  oh, gotcha!!!
[16:03] <kcorcoran> thanks!!
[16:03] <mouka> Kyle__: how can I find that?
[16:03] <cmpayc> kcorcoran: I wrote "cd", not "cp". Change directory, not copy :)
[16:04] <Pici> kcorcoran: Look at the -d switch that is mentioned in the unzip manpage
[16:04] <Kyle__> sam16: I'm sorry, I can't walk you though how to figure out what changed.  There is no tool to replace you doing a little work.
[16:04] <Kyle__> mouka: Google for ubuntu and your model number, or hang around in here asking for advice from people who have that model.
[16:04] <Kyle__> mouka: And obviously, checking the bios for the setting, you know how to do that I trust?
[16:07] <fleshpike> hi everybody, does anyone know if it is possible to buy a socket 478 ata agp motherboard nowadays?
[16:07] <Kyle__> mouka: If it helps, sometimes the CPU fan hidden from the OS, and your only (indirect) control is via CPU frequency scaling.  Check to make sure that's working right.
[16:07] <silfer> Question: I've been looking ages for a possible solution for my problem but found nothing usefull. Im trying to connect my other laptop to wifi but it's not able to connect. It can recognise all the hotspots in the area but is unable to get connected. Any ideas?
[16:07] <skullboy> i am a birthday cake that you light up blow out cut apart and forget
[16:07] <shingen> fleshpike: no, but www.pricewatch.com may
[16:07] <Kyle__> fleshpike: I'm sure someone has them around, old stock probably.  Did you check frys and tiger?
[16:08] <Kyle__> shingen: That's the website, couldn't recall the name (it's been so long....)
[16:09] <Kyle__> Holy crap... they still sell socket 370 motherboards....

[16:14] <Silferme> Anyone? I dont understand why would a wireless card be able to scan trough the hotspots but not able to connect?
[16:17] <m4xx> i've installed ubunut server and gnome-core. what do i need to install to install .deb files using the gui?
[16:17] <sauerbraten> Silferme: imagine it can just receive ALL OF THE PACKAGE flying around in the air, and read from where it comes and where it shall go. It does that if it is connected to a hotspot, too, to know if a package is meant for itself, it has to scan ALL packages :)
[16:17] <sauerbraten> *PACKAGES :/
[16:17] <gobbe> Silferme: what is your wlan-card (brand and model)
[16:17] <skullboy> ok sorry guys that was my brother that was off topic he is very inmuture
[16:17] <ety> hi ther e
[16:17] <godslam> Can anyone help me with rsync over SSH? Here's what I'm getting as feedback in the console: http://pastebin.com/mPqatmHT
[16:18] <ety> is
[16:18] <army> silferme:       Ihave the same question
[16:18] <skullboy> ok sorry guys that was my brother that was off topic he is very inmuture
[16:18] <sivel> godslam: you need a : after the IP and before the file path
[16:18] <sipior> skullboy: yeah, we got that.
[16:19] <sivel> godslam: basically follows the scp syntax
[16:19] <ety> hello
[16:19] <kernix> hey peeps
[16:19] <ety> is there mail server for multi domain ?
[16:19] <skullboy> ill make sure he does not get on again
[16:19] <m4xx> anyone? :(
[16:19] <sauerbraten> godslam, why is your machine called sexrobot? o.O
[16:19] <gobbe> godslam: you are using it wrong way
[16:19] <ety> ?
[16:20] <godslam> I've used it two different ways, gobbe. Neither of which work.
[16:20] <godslam> One sec. I'll post the other one.
[16:20] <ety> is there mail server for multi domain ?
[16:21] <gobbe> ety: yes, most of them can do multidomain
[16:21] <skullboy> so how do i fix my software index
[16:21] <Psychedelic_Appl> Oi
[16:21] <gobbe> godslam: are you trying to copy files from <IP_ADDRESS> to your home?
[16:21] <ety> which one is the best ? gobbe
[16:21] <godslam> Hokay, this is the original way I tried it and even with "echo 2>/dev/null" at the end, it didn't work. http://pastebin.com/pxT6juAw
[16:21] <godslam> Yes, gobbe.
[16:22] <gobbe> godslam: rsync -avz  console-vKTA0y@<IP_ADDRESS>:/usr/world.zip /home
[16:23] <Guest44469> whois
[16:23] <FloodBot4> !netsplit
[16:23] <skullboy> ok my system is very unstable should i redo my system
[16:23] <yurigl> whois_[gust44469]
[16:23] <godslam> This is with the command you just gave me, gobbe. http://pastebin.com/Dns6LYav
[16:24] <edbian_> skullboy, We talked yesterday.  Did you switch things over yet?
[16:25] <gobbe> godslam: why do you want to use rsync to copy only one file? use just scp?
[16:25] <skullboy> yea
[16:25] <godslam> The server is busted and can't do anything besides SSH. =/
[16:26] <skullboy> most of my apps close at random times
[16:26] <gobbe> godslam: so you could take it with scp then
[16:26] <gobbe> godslam: scp  console-vKTA0y@<IP_ADDRESS>:/usr/world.zip /home
[16:26] <godslam> Thanks, I'll try that.
[16:26] <ety> which one is the best ? gobbe  mail server
[16:26] <edbian_> skullboy, You should start the apps in the terminal.  When there are errors they'll be posted there.  Then you can see maybe why they're closing.  Additionally look at the output of dmesg periodically.  Particularly near the bottom
[16:27] <godslam> gobbe: Unable to get term attr: Invalid argument
[16:27] <godslam> gobbe: That's what it returned to me from SCP.

[16:29] <Travis-42> is there any way to run a program in a "sandbox"? The only thing I could think of was create a separate user and run the program under that
[16:29] <mikeg3> Hi I am trying to update Maverick and failing.  The error message is:  "The installation or removal of a software package failed."  Tried sudo apt-get update in terminal, same sort of problem.  Apparently the packages are downloaded already, just not installed.
[16:29] <gobbe> godslam: can you ssh in to machine?
[16:29] <USS_OHIO> i have wine.
[16:30] <skullboy> output http://paste.ubuntu.com/543680/

[16:30] <Pici> !chroot | Travis-42
[16:30] <Travis-42> ah great, thanks pici
[16:30] <edbian_> USS_OHIO, you should ask in #wine-hq
[16:30] <Pici> Travis-42: I'm afraid I can't help you any further than pointing you to that info though, although some people here may be able to.
[16:30] <edbian_> skullboy, See that last bit?  Segmentation fault?
[16:30] <USS_OHIO> ok. how i change channels?
[16:31] <skullboy> yea

[16:31] <error_203> ubuntu login screen shows only username and not password box,so m not able to login.how to resolve this ?
[16:31] <edbian_> skullboy, that means that something went wrong with how the program uses ram.  It is rather generic unfortunately
[16:31] <USS_OHIO> no ones in there :(
[16:31] <edbian_> USS_OHIO, /join #wine-hq
[16:31] <Some_One> edbian_, what i am facing here, i am full 100% signal strenght but there is no internet working neither i can access my router from IP.
[16:31] <skullboy> so why is this happening with all my apps
[16:32] <error_203> not ny ans :(
[16:32] <edbian_> USS_OHIO, it's #winehq   sorry about that!
[16:32] <edbian_> Some_One, hang on I'm a bit swamped
[16:32] <edbian_> skullboy, That's a good question. When did this start happening?
[16:32] <Some_One> Some_One, no problem bro, i am waiting :)
[16:32] <USS_OHIO> ok thanks edbian_
[16:32] <skullboy> 2 days ago
[16:33] <edbian_> skullboy, Do you see anything relevant near the end of dmesg
[16:33] <edbian_> skullboy, What did you do 2 days ago?
[16:33] <ThunderStruck> How do you fix a jack-a-latern?
[16:33] <edbian_> skullboy, Are you overclocking?
[16:33] <edbian_> skullboy, What kind of system are you running?
[16:33] <gogeta1> edbian_: system meltdown
[16:33] <skullboy> no that is bad for the system ist it and im running ubuntu 10.10
[16:33] <RealOpty> is there a way to easily downgrade from 10.10 to LTS?
[16:33] <gogeta1> edbian_: lol
[16:33] <edbian_> gogeta1, haha
[16:34] <sipior> RealOpty: i'm afraid not.
[16:34] <ThunderStruck> How do you fix a jack-a-latern? You get a punken-patch.
[16:34] <edbian_> skullboy, overclocking is potentially bad.  It causes odd errors like that if you overclock too high sometimes.
[16:34] <gogeta1> edbian_: i got a amd black at 3.3 but its also watercolled
[16:34] <Jeruvy> RealOpty: not really, and it maybe unstable if you attempt it.  I'd consider rebuilding.
[16:34] <army> mikeg3:sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:34] <edbian_> gogeta1, Nice, any idea skullboy's problem?
[16:34] <edbian_> skullboy, What did you do 2 days ago that generated the problem?  Do you know?
[16:35] <gogeta1> skullboy: bad for the hardware to if its not colled correctly
[16:35] <RealOpty> sipior, Jeruvy ok thanks. :)
[16:35] <skullboy> ok so first my software index broke then my pc started chashing and then my apps got unstable
[16:35] <Some_One> hmmm
[16:35] <edbian_> gogeta1, Was that a sentence?
[16:35] <Pici> ThunderStruck: Thats nice, but this is a support channel. If you want to be random (within reason), there is #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:35] <edbian_> skullboy, What is your software index?
[16:35] <gogeta1> skullboy: you probly have it set to high
[16:35] <ThunderStruck> How do you fix Visual Basic? you get a Eye Patch.
