[17:07] <coz_> wilhart,   did you look here ?  http://medibuntu.org/
[17:07] <dorbin> I'd like to know the answer to Friar's Q as well - 80-90KB/sec sounds bad - I thought usenet downloads went through SSL tunnels
[17:07] <H2O> Roland kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! .... what does this mean
[17:07] <coz_> wilhart,  you can go to the "Repository how to "  on that link or  "Packages"  for downloading individual packages
[17:07] <phoenix90> @h2o:probably your filesystem settings are incorrect
[17:08] <Friar> dorbin, I have a server at home, and I want to transfer some movies from it...I'm abroad for work right now....but it takes forever. I'm transferring a few GB right now and it says 22 hours.
[17:08] <hassanz> can someone help im sure its a simple problem
[17:08] <H2O> does anyone advise some other ubuntu-like desktop linux? ... coz this one is eating up my nerves pretty quickly
[17:08] <ikonia> Friar: so what's the issue
[17:08] <ikonia> H2O: no, we just discuss ubuntu in here
[17:08] <Roland> H2O, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=kernel+panic
[17:08] <mbeierl> is it normal for X in lucid to be using 800m of memory with 2g of virtual?
[17:09] <dorbin> Friar: have you checked the max speed of your line?
[17:09] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, if you type "mount" in a terminal does it show what you mounted?
[17:09] <Friar> ikonia, it just seems like it is a really slow transfer rate. I'm just trying to clear up some confusion on what sort of rates I can expect, and if there is a way to check upload/dl speed on each end.
[17:09] <ikonia> mbeierl: it can do, depends on your drivers and your compiz config
[17:09] <odesk> Hi, how can I make sed deletes all the lines starts with $1 form file $2 ?
[17:09] <beli> Friar: depends on your line ;) and....your home server...maybe its really slow and encrypting stuff takes time...
[17:09] <ikonia> Friar: that's not really anything to do with ubuntu, you'd need to speak to your line providers
[17:09] <Friar> I have checked here, and it is much higher than that....
[17:10] <aliendude5300> msg tcopeland http://www.yamaha.com/yec/compare/Detail.html?compitem1=&compitem2=5117694&compitem3=5117636&CTID=5000700&VNM=LIVE&B_compare.x=26&B_compare.y=14&comp_items=5117694&comp_items=5117636
[17:10] <hassanz> ZykoticK9: yes id does
[17:10] <aliendude5300> oops that was supposed to be a private message, sorry
[17:10] <banished> Is it possible to force the use of the VESA driver by a grub parameter?
[17:10] <mbeierl> ikonia: thanks.  nvidia and compiz, full wobbly and 4 sided cube.  been that way for many releases but this is the first time X has gotten so huge.
[17:10] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, so can you cd to where it is mounted?
[17:10] <odesk> Hi, how can I make sed deletes all the lines starts with $1 form file $2 ?
[17:10] <hassanz> yes but it dont go any further
[17:10] <luist> hey... lets say i have a folder with a filesystem inside (used as chroot) and i want to transform that folder content into a .img file to transform to a .vdi and load into virtualbox... how do i make the .img?
[17:10] <beli> Friar: setup a webserver that points to your movie directory and has dirlisting available...try to download it that way....
[17:10] <Friar> dorbin, beli, ikonia, thanks for the info...even if it isn't what I wanted to hear. at least I know there isn't anything wrong with my server...
[17:10] <lava1> Hi All, please help me my VGA is not working
[17:11] <lucas-arg> i need help with plymouth... i guess, i have nvidia propietary drivers installed, and my pc just starts when it wants, i only see a black screen of death and thats pretty much it... any ideas how to solve this?
[17:11] <Friar> beli, could my isp be throttling down certain ports?
[17:11] <beli> Friar: it CAN be your server.....a 133 mhz server is encrypting slowly
[17:11] <ZykoticK9> lucas-arg, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[17:11] <lucas-arg> ZykoticK9: 10.04 32bits
[17:12] <ZykoticK9> lucas-arg, ok - i was just checking it wasn't 10.10 (which has an nvidia issue right now).  I have no suggestions for you - Good luck.
[17:12] <lava1> Hi All, please help me my VGA is not working
[17:12] <Friar> beli, it is an old p4 at 1.7 GHz with 4GB of ram and 2 SATA I drives in RAID1
[17:13] <banished> !ask | lava1
[17:13] <lucas-arg> damn why plymouth? i was so happy before
[17:13] <sipior> odesk: sed -e "/^foo/d"
[17:13] <sipior> odesk: also: "info sed"
[17:13] <hassanz> ZykoticK9: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/AW9JKH75 please help
[17:13] <lucas-arg> !plymouth
[17:13] <beli> Friar: should be fine....but if no extra security is needed, try the webserver solution i told to you
[17:13] <wilhart> i get flickering while watching 1080p
[17:14] <Friar> beli, I'm going to try the webserver thing right now to see what I get.....i have a what if, but I'll wait.
[17:14] <odesk> thanks
[17:15] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, you have something gnome is automounting to /home/hunterseeker/.gvfs - is that what you are trying to mount?
[17:15] <lava1> I am using VGA to display to external monitor, when i did system test, i saw blank sreen on my tv but then the system hangs, how do i resolve this issue
[17:15] <hassanz> im just trying to access this automounted drive from console
[17:15] <aliendude5300> does anyone know of a good Skype alternative? The Skype client for linux is _horrible_...
[17:16] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, "cd /home/hunterseeker/.gvfs"
[17:16] <wilhart> should i use vpdau or xv ?
[17:16] <wilhart> with mplayer
[17:16] <banished> lava1: which graphic card are you using?
[17:16] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, do you have nvidia?
[17:16] <banished> wilhart: vdpau if you have a recent nvidia card
[17:16] <lava1> Banished, iam not sure how to check that
[17:16] <hassanz> its the IBM_PRELOAD i want to access :/
[17:16] <banished> lava1: open a terminal (ctrl+alt+t), lspci | grep VGA
[17:17] <vicpeng>  /quit
[17:17] <migue_> hola
[17:17] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, "cd /home/hunterseeker/.gvfs" is still my answer?
[17:17] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: iu have nvidia yes
[17:17] <migue_> alguien habla español
[17:17] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: how do i enable vpdau then ?
[17:18] <lava1> Banished, this is the output for it "0:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)"
[17:18] <banished> !es | migue_
[17:18] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, you need to have libvdpau1 installed to use vpdau i believe
[17:18] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: in .mplayer/config ?
[17:18] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, install the lib then test with "mplayer -vo vdpau $FILENAME"
[17:18] <hassanz> ZykoticK9: it says "bash: cd: /home/hunterseeker/.gvfs: Permission denied"
[17:18] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, what filesystem type are you using?
[17:19] <banished> lava1: you just plugged in the external monitor and then?
[17:19] <hassanz> its ntfs
[17:19] <ZykoticK9> hassanz, oh sorry i can't help then, good luck.
[17:19] <Arimoto_> does apt or dpkg have a capability to list the attribute changes (e.g., permissions, ownership, modification date, etc.) for files installed as part of a package?
[17:19] <pbx> Fresh install of 10.04 on an Inspiron 4000. Not seeing my wifi card, which worked with the last version of Ubuntu I used on this machine. How to get this working with minimal fuss?
[17:19] <saganbyte> Hi :) I ve just installed the Hamster time tracking applet... I m aware that it does not create a short cut in the Applications menu dropdown and needs to be added in some other way coz its an applet.. just cant remember how to do that.. please help
[17:20] <ZykoticK9> pbx, plug in ethernet - do all updates, then check System / Admin / Hardware drivers
[17:20] <lava1> Barnished, "then i entered "fn+f8 on my keyboard i.e external crt/lcd"
[17:20] <AviMarcus> ZykoticK9: thanks, the compiz --replace worked.
[17:20] <pbx> ZykoticK9: No ethernet.
[17:20] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: what lib?
[17:20] <lava1> Barnished, I am not seeing the display on my tv
[17:20] <banished> lava1: rather try the System->Settings->Displays applet
[17:20] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, libvdpau1
[17:21] <banished> pbx: which wifi card? can you post dmesg output?
[17:21] <ZykoticK9> pbx, you probably need it
[17:21] <Vilemaxim> just setup a system with a mdadm raid and it failed at boot asking if I want to boot degraded. The drives look like they are resyncing. Will booting degraded allow this to finish resyncing?
[17:22] <John__> whenever I boot up my ubuntu laptop it goes to an (initramfs) command prompt and not my desktop wtf
[17:22] <banished> John__: what does it say?
[17:23] <John__> um
[17:23] <Friar> beli, when I set it to download a movie from the website it goes at about 110 - 113 KB/s but the speed of the SSH transfer didn't slow down at all.....it is still at 92 KB/s and has been going for a few minutes like this now.
[17:23] <John__> busybox v1.13.3 ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11 built in shell (ash) engter help for al ist of build in comamnds
[17:23] <banished> John__: anything else?
[17:24] <odesk> it worked, thanks
[17:24] <John__> (initramfs) and a blinking _
[17:24] <kaushal> hi
[17:24] <John__> well above it it has a bunch of stuff
[17:24] <John__> let me take a picture
[17:24] <kaushal> is there a way to know which package contains /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
[17:24] <sipior> kaushal: dpkg -S /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
[17:25] <kaushal> dpkg: /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg not found.
[17:25] <beli> Friar: so than its slow encrypting
[17:25] <ZykoticK9> kaushal, i'm just guessing but perhaps nagios3?
[17:25] <pbx> ZykoticK9: I can't post full dmesg output because the machine is not online. Card is a Tellus C100 (I Googled its FCC ID). What next? Network access not an option. I could copy files to the machine via USB key if needed.
[17:25] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: ok vo="vpdau" #video out, i'll add this in .mplayer/config then from filemanager open file with mplayer ?
[17:25] <Friar> beli, I see....that is a matter of the server not being able to encrypt it fast enough? does it encrypt it if it is just password? I don't have a key activated on the ssh side.
[17:25] <ZykoticK9> pbx, it wasn't me who asked for dmesg output.  Without internet I can't help - hopefully someone else can.  Good luck.
[17:26] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, i'd test before you add that to config!!!
[17:26] <banished> pbx: best copy dmesg to usb
[17:26] <John__> http://yfrog.com/nf0000805j
[17:26] <sipior> kaushal: not part of any package, then.
[17:26] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: audio is coming after doesnt sync
[17:26] <pbx> banished: OK, doing that now
[17:26] <wilhart> now in sync again
[17:27] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, try with the xv output then
[17:27] <banished> John__: did it do that right after installation?
[17:27] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: i tried it flickers vpdau is good no flickering
[17:27] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, try with the gl output then (sorry)
[17:27] <John__> no I installed yesterday
[17:27] <John__> I booted it up today with the screen closed and it didn't go to my desktop
[17:27] <banished> John__: so it worked at first?
[17:27] <John__> said like john-laptop login:
[17:27] <John__> yes banished
[17:27] <John__> and I typed john and my password, and tried startx but it didnt' work so I held in the power button
[17:27] <banished> did you do anything since then?
[17:27] <ezhangin> should i be using ext4 on a raid array?
[17:28] <John__> and then I tried to turn it on again and this happened
[17:28] <ezhangin> i would think no
[17:28] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: gl output ?
[17:28] <sipior> ezhangin: why not?
[17:28] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, gl over xv, but vdpau is better!
[17:28] <John__> banished: am I going to have to reinstall?
[17:28] <ezhangin> silverraindog: not sure, i've heard not to
[17:28] <gdoteof> I forgot my root password but have sudo access
[17:28] <gdoteof> can I change it?
[17:28] <banished> John__: can you type fschk there?
[17:29] <ZykoticK9> !root | gdoteof
[17:29] <sipior> ezhangin: well, that's a powerful argument :-)
[17:29] <John__> /bin/sh: fschk: not found
[17:29] <lava1> Barnished, I did as you suggested, the tv was displayed with blank screen, and system came with blank screen and keyboard and mouse got hung
[17:29] <ezhangin> silverraindog: can't find a guide for it also
[17:29] <ezhangin> oops
[17:29] <ezhangin> sipior: i mean i've heard that multiple times
[17:29] <banished> John__: sorry, fsck
[17:29] <ezhangin> lol, sorry for the vagueness
[17:29] <sacarlson> gdoteof: well sudo has the same access as root.  ubuntu has no root password
[17:29] <John__> not found
[17:29] <gdoteof> ZykoticK9: I have a root, I just forgot the password
[17:30] <ZykoticK9> gdoteof, not supported here then
[17:30] <gdoteof> hrm.  maybe i don't have a root
[17:30] <banished> John__: you can boot from a LiveCD and run it from there
[17:30] <gdoteof> ok.  thanks
[17:30] <gdoteof> annoying to type sudo ..
[17:30] <gdoteof> sudo ..
[17:30] <ZykoticK9> !noroot | gdoteof
[17:30] <sipior> gdoteof: you can set it again with sudo passwd, or unset it with sudo passwd -d (generally recommended)
[17:31] <sacarlson> gdoteof: well if you sudo su  then you will have a # prompt and no need to add password
[17:31] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: is there some codecs that i must manually install ?
[17:31] <gdoteof> sudo su
[17:31] <gdoteof> nice
[17:31] <ZykoticK9> sacarlson, "sudo su" is not a good idea - "sudo -i" is better
[17:31] <ZykoticK9> gdoteof, see above!
[17:31] <gdoteof> i see
[17:31] <gdoteof> ty
[17:31] <i2c> ok I'm back banished I had to change my name I'm downloading the livecd I only have the beta might as well get the new one
[17:31] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: libmatroska or some ?
[17:32] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, you might need the vdpau PPA perhaps?
[17:32] <gdoteof> why is sudo -i better
[17:32] <sacarlson> ZykoticK9: what is the diff in -i and su?
[17:32] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: should i disable/enable something in nvidia-settings, and do i need to have glx in xorg.conf ?
[17:32] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, it's not a codec issue
[17:32] <lava1> Barnished, I did as you suggested, the tv was displayed with blank screen, and system came with blank screen and keyboard and mouse got hung, i have to restart the system unplugging vga cable
[17:33] <saganbyte> is there some way i can track for how long the system has been booted?
[17:33] <ZykoticK9> sacarlson, sudo -i sets environment variables better (less likely to break system)
[17:33] <gdoteof> saganbyte: uptime
[17:33] <saganbyte> gdoteof, thanks :)
[17:33] <sacarlson> ZykoticK9: ok cool,  I just tried it get the same # but not sure about env
[17:33] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: what about glx in xorg.conf ?
[17:33] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, can you pastebin "mplayer -vo vdpau $FILENAME"
[17:33] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: sure
[17:34] <ZykoticK9> sacarlson, "sudo su" is highly frowned upon here
[17:34] <i2c> why?
[17:34] <North_Italian69> It is possible to rename the menu names on panel, like 'Applications', 'Places', 'System' in 'App', 'Sys"?
[17:34] <sacarlson> ZykoticK9: not by me, but I'm old school
[17:34] <lake> <-- needs recommendations for a USB Wifi Card cuz my BCMXXX card/drivers b-b-b-bloooow
[17:34] <gdoteof> ZykoticK9: why is sudo -i better?
[17:34] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: http://pastebin.ca/1919515
[17:35] <pbx> banished: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/M9zdXp1M
[17:35] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, is the video playing?
[17:35] <ZykoticK9> gdoteof, environment is setup better (less likely to break system)
[17:36] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: yea
[17:36] <lake> I prefer a card with open source drivers from the manufacturer; I've heard anything with an atheros chip is good?
[17:36] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, so what's wrong then?
[17:36] <gdoteof> ZykoticK9: how are you less likely to break the system?
[17:37] <erUSUL> lake: correct
[17:37] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: minor flicker once in a while, and i have 5.1 speakers that shows 2speakers
[17:37] <ZykoticK9> gdoteof, use "sudo su" if you want - but be warned...
[17:37] <rww> you may be eaten by a grue
[17:37] <erUSUL> !rootshell | gdoteof
[17:37] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: and it's 48000Hz it should be smaller
[17:37] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, that is an audio issue - sorry i can't assist with that?
[17:37] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: ok.
[17:38] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: minor flickering :( should i enable glx in xorg.conf ?
[17:38] <North_Italian69> It is possible on Gnome to rename the menu names on panel, like 'Apps' for 'Applications and so on?
[17:38] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, flickering?  does it flicker with "gl" instead of "vdpau"?
[17:39] <owd95> someone that knows when the spotify linux native client works with spotify free?
[17:40] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, you might want to try the "sync to vblank" in nvidia-settings and see if that helps???
[17:40] <i2c> bannished: I'm burning the cd stand by
[17:40] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: yea it's ON
[17:41] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, do you get the flickering using gl instead of vdpau?
[17:41] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: havent tried gl yes is that same than xv?
[17:42] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, no gl or gl2 are different from xv
[17:42] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: ok
[17:43] <wilhart> mplayer -vo gl melite-coto-1080p-rpk.mkv ?
[17:43] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: ^
[17:44] <i2c> banished: I'm booting the cd right now what exactly is the command I issue?
[17:44] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, sure
[17:44] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: ok i'll try it if this doesnt flicker anymore i enabled vsync and glx
[17:45] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, if you are playing 1080p video your system might not be fast enough?
[17:45] <dorbin> wilhart: have you been getting bad flickering in lucid?
[17:45] <wilhart> ZykoticK9: i have 2.33ghz dualcore 64bit with nvidia 8800glx
[17:46] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, that's fast enough ;)
[17:46] <wilhart> :D
[17:46] <LintWad> Im having trouble gaining internet connection after a new install on an Acer laptop. Looking for a little help if someone has the time.
[17:46] <wilhart> have to go for pizza now tnx for help ZykoticK9
[17:47] <lake> erUSUL: is that the best I could get?
[17:47] <sacarlson> ZykoticK9: I had to find out the diff of sudo -i and sudo su and you are correct there is a difference in them,  but the only thing I see is the XDG_SESSION_COOKIE is set in sudo su and not in sudo -i. as see here compared to sudo -i sudo su and a standard user  http://paste.ubuntu.com/480003/
[17:48] <erUSUL> lake: intel and atheros both work in their drivers for linux
[17:48] <sascha_> #egroupware
[17:49] <i2c> what about this http://cgi.ebay.com/Realtek-RTL8187B-802-11a-b-g-Mini-PCIe-Wireless-Card-/270590099957?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0#ht_790wt_911
[17:50] <ZykoticK9> sacarlson, interesting...  thanks man.
[17:51] <sacarlson> LintWad: for any hope of help with you intenet connection you will need to provide much more info like pastebin us the results of: ifconfig , iwconfig, route, the contents of /etc/resolv.conf , lsusb , lshw, lspci ,  that's all I can think of. with that someone should be able to help you.
[17:52] <pgpkeys> and dmeswg output of what the system sees the device as, and lsmod as well so we can see what device modules are loaded
[17:52] <pgpkeys> err dmesg even
[17:52] <LintWad> Alright. Let's see what I can do. Have to switch between machines.
[17:53] <lake> erUSUL: I've got a laptop -- you think I should replace the pci card or just get a usb stick?
[17:53] <sacarlson> ZykoticK9: I always want to know why.  but I don't even know what XDG_SESSION_COOKIE is or what it does so I'll save that for later.
[17:53] <lake> I'm not even really sure how to put a pci card in, so usb option is me being lazy/ignorant
[17:53] <ZykoticK9> sacarlson, nor i ;)
[17:55] <i2c> good my ubuntu livecd doesn't even work WTF
[17:55] <rww> ZykoticK9, sacarlson: It's set by your login manager and used by ConsoleKit to determine which desktop session a given terminal belongs to
[17:56] <ZykoticK9> rww, thanks
[17:56] <LintWad> sacarlson, pgpkeys http://pastebin.com/bmH5Wwyi
[17:57] <rww> maybe s/terminal/process/. not sure.
[17:57] <sacarlson> i2c: cool I have had many people with problems with that device I didn't know it was a laptop thing.  I thought it was a usb device.
[17:57] <LintWad> I think its important to note this is my first attempt at an install.
[17:57] <erUSUL> lake: what wifi chip thoes the laptop come with ?
[17:57] <North_Italian69> How to rename the menu names on Gnome panel, like 'Apps' for 'Applications and so on?
[17:58] <antlong> hello, what command do i run to switch my system python from 2.6 to 2.7, i believe its update-alternatives but i dont know the rest
[17:58] <VCoolio> North_Italian69: don't know if possible; there are other, smaller menu applets for gnome-panel though, look into those
[17:58] <erUSUL> antlong: 2.7 version is not aviable in lucid
[17:59] <antlong> i built it and installed it
[17:59] <antlong> i just need to switch
[17:59] <antlong> im on 10.4
[17:59] <sacarlson> LintWad: well I don't see any wifi device in that list.  is that what I'm looking for?
[17:59] <LintWad> I'm not getting internet period. Not even hardlined.
[17:59] <LintWad> But it would be great to get the wifi up.
[18:00] <sacarlson> LintWad: were is the more important info like ifconfig and iwconfig?
[18:00] <LintWad> Hrms. I saved that output. Let me check.
[18:00] <erUSUL> antlong: well that could lead to something braking at system level. why not just make a PATH hack or alias for your user ?
[18:00] <sacarlson> LintWad: I put this list in the order of importance
[18:00] <LintWad> And I ran it in the order you gave me.
[18:00] <LintWad> seems it didn't save correctly.
[18:01] <lake> erUSUL: I'm not sure -- It's a BCM4312
[18:01] <sacarlson> LintWad: or I viewed it wrong?
[18:01] <LintWad> Probably not. I opened the document I saved it in and it looks truncated.
[18:01] <LintWad> Running again.
[18:01] <erUSUL> lake: althout you have to install the firmware those cards seems to work ok ...
[18:02] <bugaloo> guys... I'd like to make my ubuntu box (10.04) like a surveillance box... Using a webcam, what software can I use to a remote view?
[18:02] <lake> erUSUL: it's working right now, yes
[18:02] <LintWad> sacarlson http://pastebin.com/NjF15vyV
[18:02] <lake> erUSUL: seems to drop a lot for me
[18:03] <lake> if i stream a video, for instance, it cuts out
[18:03] <erUSUL> lake: tried installing the linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic package ?
[18:03] <antlong> is there a version of python_select for ubuntu
[18:03] <lake> erUSUL: no, why should I do that
[18:03] <styx993> hello all
[18:04] <sacarlson> LintWad: well from the looks of it you have no wifi device but I still have no lsusb to verify that.  do you have a wire connected like cat5 ethernet?  if so you have no ip address there.
[18:04] <LintWad> Yes. I am connected via wire.
[18:04] <erUSUL> lake: new version of the driver *may* be more stable
[18:04] <styx993> anybody know where i can find information on policykit?
[18:04] <LintWad> I was getting wireless when running w7, so the device exists.
[18:05] <LintWad> It's just not being recognized.
[18:05] <lake>  interesting -- so is that all I need to do?
[18:05] <laeg> does anyone know how i can change the owner of a .pdf file and then 'secure' it? i have acroreader installed but it doesn't have that option.
[18:05] <lake> erUSUL: will it automatically require the right module, etc
[18:06] <erUSUL> lake: to try a newer version of the driver? yes. note the mephasis on *may*. there are no waranties of the newer driver being better
[18:06] <sacarlson> LintWad: well the ethernet has a wire but no address so we could try install wicd  with apt-get install wicd  to see if we can manualy set it or we can do it with term commands.
[18:06] <lake>    erUSUL ok
[18:07] <sacarlson> LintWad: this might be good to try at a command term dhclient eth0
[18:07] <lake> erUSUL: i'm going to hit youtube -- if it drops, I'll try the new driver. lol
[18:07] <erUSUL> lake: good luck.
[18:07] <LintWad> Getting a lot of "permission denied" on that command.
[18:07] <sacarlson> LintWad: oh sorry forgot no connection so that's the only thing we can do is dhclient eth0
[18:08] <LintWad> Right.
[18:08] <LintWad> "permission denied"
[18:08] <LintWad> "can't create /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases: permission denied"
[18:08] <sacarlson> LintWad: oh yes so it's sudo dhclient eth0
[18:08] <glick> hey can anyone recommend any good hosting services? anyone ever used linode?
[18:08] <LintWad> Ok. That loks like it's working
[18:09] <LintWad> Well, doing something at least.
[18:09] <Oer> hosting is no Ubuntu issue, join #Ubuntu-offtopic for that, glick
[18:09] <sacarlson> LintWad: if that looks like it got something take a look at ifconfig again and see if we go an ip
[18:09] <lucenut> Hey guys. How do I start getting a microphone and webcam to work on ubuntu 10.04?
[18:09] <lake> erUSUL: yep, dropped.
[18:09] <lucenut> I plugged the usb camera in and nothing happened.
[18:09] <LintWad> It almost looks like it's in a loop.
[18:10] <sacarlson> lucenut: did you try the program cheese?
[18:10] <lucenut> No.
[18:10] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, start with cheese as sacarlson suggests
[18:10] <yunf> ?
[18:10] <lucenut> Will I find it in the software center?
[18:10] <sacarlson> lucenut: well that might make you camera take pics
[18:10] <c3l> it seems my alsa crashed, how do i restart it?
[18:11] <trism> styx993: there is the policykit-1-doc package, although the most useful information there are probably just the html versions of the manpages you already have, polkit(8) and pklocalauthority(8)
[18:11] <mauri> which is the channel for maverick?
[18:11] <ZykoticK9> mauri, #ubuntu+1
[18:11] <mauri> ZykoticK9: tnk
[18:11] <lake> erUSUL: my kernel is 2.6.34
[18:11] <lake> the install pulled me back down to 2.6.32
[18:11] <trueno> Hi there!
[18:12] <styx993> trism: okay, thank you.  would you happen to know if i can allow a user to perform an action without entering a password?
[18:12] <trueno> Is there a way to use ipod touch 2g in banshee just as with rhythmbox?
[18:12] <maco> styx993: you want to give a specific user a specific command they can run as admin without a password?
[18:13] <zonkers1> how do I upgrade to 10.04.1???
[18:13] <styx993> maco: yes, i want her to be able to update the computer
[18:13] <maco> styx993: that can be done with "sudo visudo"  edit that file (comments in there explain what to do)
[18:13] <maco> zonkers1: just install updates as usual
[18:13] <ZykoticK9> zonkers1, "lsb_realease -a" and see if you already have it.  Update as normal.
[18:13] <zonkers1> maco, that's it?
[18:13] <maco> zonkers1: yep.
[18:13] <styx993> maco: edit what file?
[18:13] <maco> zonkers1: 10.04.1 is just a CD release with all the updates bundled
[18:14] <maco> styx993: "sudo visudo" will open an editor to the /etc/sudoers file, but itll have checks in place to make sure you don't break it before you save
[18:14] <maco> styx993: you'll want to put her username, the command she can do, and NOPASSWORD
[18:14] <styx993> maco: i want to edit the system policies, not give her access to sudo
[18:14] <blackMatrix_NY> Hi. I set a symbolic link in /var/www/ to point to a web application folder in my home directory. But the only way the web app works is if I chmod the directory to 777. This doesn't seem safe. Any other way around this ?
[18:14] <br14n4b4nks> can someone help me with smplayer and wmap codec pls ??
[18:14] <maco> styx993: oooh ok
[18:14] <zonkers1> maco thanks.
[18:14] <br14n4b4nks> i have no sound
[18:14] <styx993> it's not a console command, its the system update applet
[18:15] <styx993> it's something with polkit, i just don't know how to work it
[18:15] <maco> zonkers1: http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com/questions/3/how-can-i-set-the-software-center-to-install-software-for-non-root-users has an explanation
[18:15] <dorbin> most of my home folders (Docs, Downloads, Music, etc,) are missing from 'Places' (top panel) - how do I restore them?
[18:15] <styx993> aha, that is perfect
[18:15] <styx993> thank you zonkers1 for asking the right question
[18:15] <ZykoticK9> maco, linking stackexchange already eh?  nice!
[18:15] <styx993> and maco, thank you for providing the right answer
[18:15] <maco> ZykoticK9: i saw it on there a couple days ago :P
[18:15] <zonkers1> styx993,  I LOVE ubuntu....it's the best...
[18:16] <styx993> :)  i've appreciated it lately too
[18:16] <lucenut> Does chrome work on ubuntu?
[18:16] <trueno> Is there a way to use ipod touch 2g in banshee just as with rhythmbox? It works with rhythmbox, but I can't get it working with banshee... Any clue? where could I have a look? I am using banshee 1.7.4
[18:16] <erUSUL> lucenut: yes
[18:17] <maco> lucenut: yep
[18:18] <lucenut> How? I googled and it doesn't seem straightforward.
[18:18] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, chromium-browser is in default 10.04 repo (open source version of chrome)
[18:18] <lucenut> One place has a link to an old .deb version.
[18:18] <zonkers1> i have 10.04.1 wooo hooo
[18:19] <zonkers1> will i notice anything different if I install the newer version of freetype?
[18:19] <lucenut> Ah Chromium
[18:19] <oCean_> !info chromium-browser | lucenut
[18:20] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, FYI chromium is a game, chromium-browser is the web browser
[18:22] <bihari_> any one know how to install backtrack
[18:22] <bihari_> ?
[18:22] <ZykoticK9> !backtrack | bihari
[18:23] <bihari_> ?
[18:23] <bihari_> !gyachi | ZykoticK9
[18:23] <bihari_> !gyachi | bihari
[18:23] <ZykoticK9> bihari, we don't support Backtrack here - see #buacktrack-linux
[18:24] <bihari_> ok
[18:24] <ZykoticK9> bihari, type on the irc address there ;)
[18:24] <ZykoticK9> s/type/typo
[18:24] <bastid_raZor> lucenut: one way of getting up-to-date chromium.. is the PPA. https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[18:24] <bihari_> s/type/typo
[18:24] <bihari_> ?
[18:24] <zezu> is skype on a PPA now ?
[18:25] <bastid_raZor> lucenut: updates are around 9PM EST daily.
[18:25] <bihari_> ZykoticK9,  ? i didnuthing happen
[18:25] <ZykoticK9> bihari, sorry s(ubstitue)/type/(for)typo
[18:25] <solow> omg u guys, this just proofs how awesome ubuntu is
[18:25] <solow> With windows, my printer didnt work until I installed a 300mb app from hp
[18:25] <bihari_> s/type
[18:25] <rooks> zezu, i installed skype from that extra enabled repos that are by default disabled on fresh install of ubuntu
[18:25] <solow> I just plugged it in at ubuntu, 3 seconds, and it works
[18:26] <IdleOne> bihari: backtrack is not for beginners, if you can't even install it you really should NOT be using it
[18:26] <zezu> rooks i thought so but don't see it,  then again i should prob. be asking in +1
[18:27] <bihari_> Idle0ne i know but i have curiosity thats why i wants to try
[18:27] <bihari_> JUst for curiosity i wants to install
[18:28] <lucenut> Hmm. I still haven't gotten ubuntu to realize I have a webcam and mic plugged in.
[18:28] <IdleOne> bihari: /join #backtrack-linux
[18:28] <maco> lucenut: maybe its a bug?
[18:28] <bihari> IdleOne,  thanks
[18:29] <rooks> zezu, just enable partner repositories in system/administration/synaptic/settings/repositories/other software
[18:29] <rooks> zezu and then reload
[18:30] <lucenut> Would a guy have to do anything when you plug a mic in on ubuntu?
[18:30] <lucenut> The webcam is usb so shouldn't ubuntu make a noise or throw up an alert or something?
[18:30] <rooks> zezu and give a moment for quick search to catch up with updates, since it falls behind reload a bit
[18:30] <shadowhywind_> hay all, I just a replacement hdd in the mail, I am going to use dd to copy everything from my old hdd to the new one. Will dd also copy the mbr/grub ? also what should be the dd command I should issue?
[18:30] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, generally on unix/linux "no news is good news" ;)
[18:31] <IdleOne> !register | bihari
[18:31] <lucenut> Well, I tried the Sound Recorder and it doesn't show any level or record anything.
[18:31] <rooks> shadowhywind_, dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb will copy all, including mbr, grub and whatever is on the drive
[18:32] <bihari> now
[18:32] <lucenut> Is there a "Device Manager" of some sort like in windows?
[18:32] <b1ank> hi there. i'm looking for recommendations for a very low-cost, low-power and quiet home server running ubuntu. it's mostly going to be a backup, file and media server, maybe a low volume tor node. ~$100 barebones Atom boxes by foxconn look tempting on price, anyone used one? you can see them here http://bit.ly/zVA6y
[18:32] <shadowhywind_> rooks: would I have to include the bs flag or conv=notrunc or anything like that
[18:32] <felicity> hey, i downloaded the dina.ttf font but am having trouble using it.i use the command line alot, so i have no graphical file browser(slow internet, so i stick to small apps).so, how do i install the font?
[18:32] <rooks> shadowhywind_, tho better reinstall grub since grub operates on uuid's which can change due to different hdd serial nr
[18:32] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, you might want to try/install gnome-device-manager
[18:33] <ranjan> Hi all, is it possible to connect two laptops kept side by side using wireless adapter/
[18:33] <shadowhywind_> rooks: k, I will first use dd to copy everything over, and see if grub is screwed up and then reinstall/fix if needed
[18:33] <IdleOne> !ot | b1ank
[18:33] <wilhart> is pulse no more available?
[18:34] <rooks> shadowhywind_, give bs 4 megabytes, dont do any conv voodo, it might corrupt fresh install
[18:34] <b1ank> sorry
[18:34] <Queops> Heya, I wanted to take a look at the default bluetooth application sourcecode but I can't figure how, any help?
[18:34] <Bambr> hey, i've got a problem with samba server, i installed on my 10.4 box samba and smbfs and configured samba according to tutorial and it's not accessible from windows
[18:34] <shadowhywind_> rooks: what does bs do in the first place?
[18:35] <rww> felicity: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Manually
[18:35] <rooks> shadowhywind_, it determines how much data dd reads and writes at one go, so it will read 4mb of data and then it will write it, 4mb should be ok, since cache on hdd's is about 8mb these days
[18:35] <rww> felicity: (it uses nautilus, but just copying in the terminal with cp would work just as well)
[18:36] <ninjai> anyone here know how I can make the F1-12 keys function as ESC[n~ (from putty) in Konsole?
[18:36] <shadowhywind_> rooks: so would be dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=4mb or would it be bs=4120 (ish)
[18:36] <rooks> shadowhywind_, maybe dd operates differently when it deals with two seperate devices, but i guess it only passes read/write requests to kernel, so kernel will handle all the caching and such
[18:37] <shadowhywind_> rooks: otherwise, bs is what 512 bytes?
[18:37] <rooks> shadowhywind_, no idea on proper bs= synaptic, its in the man dd how to spell megabytes properly for it
[18:37] <lucas-arg> i have problems with startup, ubuntu shows a blackscreen, i have to restart the pc and hope it actually starts up, i disabled splash to see that was going on and it stops in memory check or something... any ideas?
[18:37] <rooks> i think so, something like that
[18:38] <Guest31764> looking for help to load on system with internal RAID0
[18:38] <shadowhywind_> rooks: ah, in that case I think i might just skip bs, since the other harddrive is dying, don't want to task it to much
[18:38] <erUSUL> !fakeraid | Guest31764
[18:38] <rooks> shadowhywind_, youre booting from live cd btw, not from hdd youre copying, right?
[18:38] <shadowhywind_> rooks:  that is true, live cd
[18:38] <shadowhywind_> not that stupid , hehe
[18:39] <rooks> shadowhywind_, well, its tasking it one way or another, having proper bs will help to smooth out the whole experience
[18:39] <rooks> like faster transfer times
[18:40] <U8untu> hey, i have installed Windows XP SP3 and Ubuntu 10.04 on the same partition C:\ .. how could i delete windows and stay with ubuntu?
[18:40] <shadowhywind_> rooks:  oh, so your still thinking go with 4 mb?
[18:40] <lucenut> In the software center, it looks like Skype is already installed. There's no "Install" button.
[18:40] <lucenut> Where would I find it?
[18:41] <rooks> shadowhywind_, yup, i would go with bs=4M if i was about to do that copying, given the hdd's are the same size
[18:41] <i2c> skype.com or w/e
[18:41] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:41] <lucenut> Is it pre-installed?
[18:41] <caseyc> hi all - quick newb question - when i do dpkg -l | grep php, I'm getting an "li" or "rc" before the package name
[18:41] <caseyc> what is this for?
[18:41] <rooks> shadowhywind_, it would make controllers happy i think :)
[18:41] <ZykoticK9> lucenut, "perhaps" you need to add the Partner repo?
[18:41] <erUSUL> caseyc: flags the indicate what is the package state in dpkg DB
[18:42] <caseyc> what does rc mean?
[18:42] <U8untu> hey, i have installed Windows XP SP3 and Ubuntu 10.04 on the same partition C:\ .. how could i delete windows and stay with ubuntu?
[18:42] <maco> caseyc: the first 3 lines of output explain that
[18:42] <rooks> lucenut,  enable partner repositories in system/administration/synaptic/settings/repositories/other software
[18:42] <Queops> Heya, I wanted to take a look at the default bluetooth application sourcecode but I can't figure how, any help?
[18:42] <shadowhywind_> rooks: then one last thing, just to make sure im doing this right, since it seams very wrong, bs is in bytes, to do 4 mb.. i would have to do bs=4194304 ?? that just seams a bit wrong
[18:42] <itterbium> you cant
[18:43] <itterbium> how can i install ubuntu without internet ? i cant step over choose-mirror
[18:43] <maco> caseyc: first column corresponds to first line's guide, so r means its been marked as desired for removal (you hit remove at some point)
[18:43] <rooks> shadowhywind_, man says when you do "bs=4M" it will understand this as bs=4*1024*1024
[18:44] <shadowhywind_> oh lol i think i missed that part
[18:44] <maco> caseyc: second column to second line, which says its for the actual current status. yours is c, so thats conf-files... the executables are gone but configuration files remain so you dont need to reconfigure if you ever reinstall it
[18:44] <manuel_> Can someone help me with the installation of my drivers? I tried "tar zxvf AR81Family-Linux-v<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz" and i get this error "gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored
[18:44] <manuel_> src/atl1e.h
[18:44] <manuel_> tar: Child returned status 2
[18:44] <manuel_> tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
[18:44] <manuel_> "
[18:44] <FloodBot2> manuel_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:44] <rooks> shadowhywind_, its below all the parameters :P
[18:44] <shadowhywind_> rooks:  or at least thats what I get for using a website..
[18:44] <jfcarroll> How do I get a .deb file for a package in the Ubuntu repository?  Specifically, I'd like to download a .deb file for gnucash 2.2.  Thanks!
[18:44] <U8untu> anybody help me?
[18:45] <maco> jfcarroll: packages.ubuntu.com lets you download any packages in the official repos
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> U8untu, do you mean you used Wubi and installed Ubuntu inside Windows?
[18:45] <shadowhywind_> rooks: thanks again for all the help
[18:45] <caseyc> maco - thanks, i appreciate it. so its not installed? or is it? if i try to remove it, it says its not installed
[18:45] <U8untu> yes ZykoticK9
[18:45] <i2c> hello everyone I'm having trouble with my wireless card, it worked earlier today but now will not work, seems like it just cut out of nowhere (no I haven't messed with drivers or anything) is there any way to debug it from within ubuntu?
[18:45] <maco> caseyc: its not installed but config files remain in case you reinstall some day
[18:45] <rooks> shadowhywind_, youre welcome:) http://planet.admon.org/howto/basic-understanding-of-the-dd-command/ btw :)
[18:45] <woble> U8untu, installed two OS on the same partition? Sure about that?
[18:45] <Queops> Oh comon why others answers are being answered before :S
[18:45] <U8untu> yes woble
[18:45] <maco> caseyc: if you want to get rid of config files too, apt-get purge <packagename> will do that
[18:46] <Queops> I'll ask for support somewhere >.<
[18:46] <ZykoticK9> U8untu, i doubt it's possible really - but I wouldn't know.  I've seen reference to a migrating Wubi to physical install, but it's probably MUCH easier to just fresh install.  Best of luck.
[18:46] <woble> U8untu, ah wubi, well, if you'd like to stick to ubuntu i would do a complete fresh install with a separate home partition
[18:46] <rooks> shadowhywind_, when dd is running you can do from other terminal killall dd -USR1 so it will print nice statisctics on how its doing :)
[18:46] <caseyc> maco: when i try to install it, it says "php5-mcrypt: Depends: phpapi-20090626"
[18:47] <dorbin> most of my home folders (Docs, Downloads, Music, etc,) are missing from 'Places' (top panel) - how do I restore them?
[18:47] <caseyc> maco: you know a solution to that?
[18:47] <U8untu> woble my windows is fully virused..if i reinstall another windows..same virus appears.. so.. i want to get rid of it
[18:47] <maco> caseyc: is there more to it? like a complaint that phpapi isnt avilable?
[18:47] <shadowhywind_> rooks: repeate that one more time, wouldn't killall dd actraully kill the copy
[18:47] <U8untu> and i dont have and dont know how to make a ubuntu bootable disk woble
[18:47] <woble> U8unti, just download the iso, and burn :)
[18:48] <Trikkex> Hey there, my trackpad only works on the login screen. But once I've logged in it loses all functionality. any suggestions?
[18:48] <dorbin> U8untu: just boot up from CD/USB and format your c: partition while installing ubuntu - that take care of your worries
[18:48] <rooks> shadowhywind_, no, killall -USR1 dd will only send USR1 signal to dd, which will cause it to display statisctics on how its going, its all in the manual :) man dd :P
[18:48] <U8untu> woble and how is that? how to burn? lol? i am newbie :D
[18:48] <caseyc> maco: says some packages could not be installed - the following information may help resolve the situation: the following packages have unmet dependencies
[18:48] <maco> !pastebin | caseyc
[18:48] <caseyc> maco: E: broken packages
[18:48] <caseyc> ok
[18:48] <woble> U8untu, do you know how to burn cd's?
[18:48] <shadowhywind_> rooks: hehe, i will have to issue that command, since its a 640 gb drive
[18:49] <U8untu> woble copy/paste .. thats how i do cd`s :D
[18:49] <teddy_> I installed Ubuntu as my workstation. I moved our Windows XP as a second PC. Then I use TSClient to connect to the Windows XP from Linux. I toggle the full screen with CTRL-ALT-ENTER and switch between the 2 boxes. Then I have an ESXI with 20 OS's on it. It is a nice setup. I do this because not everyone can use Linux, and they can use TSClient to access their Windows XP.
[18:49] <VCoolio> dorbin: check what ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs says

[18:49] <pardac> Hi. Help needed with video files, using Ubuntu 10.04. Can't seem to get any picture just the sound. Youtube videos play but blank out on full screen. Where should I start? I've followed many tutorials but failed.

[18:49] <IdleOne> U8untu: the above link will explain how to burn the iso file so it is bootable
[18:50] <GrimCrimson> Hey everyone
[18:50] <maco> jfcarroll: the page on packages.ubuntu.com from which you grabbed it lists the dependencies.  you dont need to worry about recommends/suggests. only depends are absolutely required
[18:50] <i2c> hello everyone I'm having trouble with my wireless card, it worked earlier today but now will not work, seems like it just cut out of nowhere (no I haven't messed with drivers or anything) is there any way to debug it from within ubuntu?
[18:50] <Trikkex> Can anyone help me with my laptop trackpad? It doesn't work after login.
[18:50] <woble> U8untu, make sure you test your livedisc before performing a format whatsoever, and be sure to backup your personal files before touching anything
[18:50] <U8untu> woble and what if put the iso image to a usb flash driver? it will boot it?
[18:50] <GrimCrimson> is there a way to run a bootable usb inside ubuntu?
[18:50] <woble> U8untu, another possibility if your pc supports it. use the ubuntu startup disc creator
[18:50] <IdleOne> !usb | U8untu
[18:50] <blinkyb> any good dock applications beside "Docky"?
[18:50] <jfcarroll> Maco, thank you for answering my questions.  I apologize for the unapproved private message (pm?).  I am new to IRC, but not new to Ubuntu.
[18:51] <GrimCrimson> i don twant to install to/from a usb
[18:51] <ninjai> is there any way/program to capture the exact keycodes a terminal sends to a remote server?
[18:51] <dorbin> pardac: maybe reinstall flash - goto system - administration - synaptic packet manager and search for flash. Check the green square and choose reinstall

[18:51] <VCoolio> ninjai: xev
[18:51] <GrimCrimson> i have BT4 on a bootable usb and want to try to run it inside ubuntu, maybe using VBox or something
[18:52] <VCoolio> blinkyb: cairo-dock, awn (avant window navigator)
[18:52] <teddy_> i can even do multimedia and filesharing between XP and Ubuntu with TSClient. Then agian, I do have freenas as one my my 20 distros on my ESXI. Every admin should be running this setup. Its great stuff.
[18:52] <jfcarroll> Pardac:  Could you give a specific example?  Perhaps a particular YouTube URL that won't play?  Are you familiar with video codecs?
[18:52] <blinkyb> VCoolio: thx

[18:52] <U8untu> woble and if i dont touch the windows? and let the both on the same partition? will be a problem for ubuntu later? i made that way,that when my pc starts,in logs in directly to ubuntu
[18:53] <erUSUL> !ultimate > en1ac3r
[18:53] <kandjar> I had to reboot my ubuntu server this morning, because the process table was flooded with root process running: /USR/BIN/CRON (all caps); does anyone know a possible reason? or has anyone seen that?
[18:53] <woble> U8untu you cant have 2 OS on the same partition.
[18:53] <caseyc> maco: did the pastbin make sense?
[18:53] <U8untu> woble why?
[18:53] <ninjai> erUSUL: I'm trying to figure out what keycodes putty sends with ESC[n~, in hopes to use that keycode in Konsole
[18:53] <woble> U8untu you can use the livedisc to make a new partition, be sure to check out the installation manual / guide on how to do this
[18:53] <pardac> jfcarroll: It happens with all videos. I've folloved tutorials to install video codecs but failed for some reason. I have the restricted extras and sort of things installed but no luck. Don't know how to go on.
[18:53] <maco> caseyc: yes. phpapi-20090626 isnt in the repos but php5-mcrypt depends on it. thats a bug...
[18:54] <en1ac3r> sorry,where message
[18:54] <Loneclock> sorry for my lack of computer knowledge but is there a way to chain 2 computers together to increase your processing power?
[18:54] <U8untu> now i`m on ubuntu, and dont want to go on windows ever
[18:54] <caseyc> maco: how can i fix that? its strange because it's not doing that on my local dev box, but on the rackspace dev box, it's throwing htis
[18:54] <maco> caseyc: oh...wait it was from my rackspace that i was looking too
[18:54] <erUSUL> caseyc: maybe you have a third party repo ?
[18:55] <caseyc> i installed php5.2.10 so i can get memcache to work
[18:55] <slow-motion> hi
[18:55] <jfcarroll> Pardac:  Have you tried vlc?  It is a good player that plays just about everything.  http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
[18:55] <en1ac3r> ubottu,where message
[18:55] <woble> U8untu, if you feel the time is right to drop windows.. backup your personal files, format, and start with a new and fresh Ubuntu install. did you already take a look at the manual? ubuntu-manual.org
[18:55] <maco> caseyc: my local system agrees with my rackspace that that package doesnt exist in the repos
[18:55] <erUSUL> !ultimate | en1ac3r
[18:55] <pardac> jfcarroll: Yes, I tried VLC but the same thing with that. Just sound, no picture.
[18:55] <maco> caseyc: not really something you'd fix though...its a bug on our (ubuntu's) side
[18:56] <caseyc> maco, so where does that leave me?
[18:56] <maco> caseyc: not using phpmyadmin?
[18:56] <U8untu> woble how to make backup, how to format?i dont get it :(
[18:56] <en1ac3r> okay cheers....
[18:56] <caseyc> maco, how could it work on my local box though?
[18:56] <caseyc> sorry, im new to all this
[18:56] <rooks> shadowhywind_, one more thing, be sure from what drive youre copying data to what :) its kinda important to know these things when doing dd :)
[18:56] <maco> caseyc: dont know
[18:56] <woble> U8untu, i assume there are files on the disc you can not loose?
[18:56] <shadowhywind_> rooks: yah i know, already double checked with fdisk -l
[18:57] <rooks> k :)
[18:57] <U8untu> woble what disc?
[18:57] <jfcarroll> pardac: Can you play audio files?  .ogg?  .mp3?  I assume you've tested your sound system, and it's working, right?
[18:57] <maco> caseyc: oh!
[18:57] <woble> U8untu, on your computer
[18:57] <woble> U8untu, like photo's, word documents, personal files etc.
[18:57] <caseyc> maco: ???!
[18:57] <pardac> jfcarroll: sound files work fine yes.
[18:58] <U8untu> woble no, and even if i hafe, those are on other partitions like D:\
[18:58] <en1ac3r> if you want to try a ubuntu 64 bit in virtulization,use vmware,vbox not support virtulization,xtra software needed
[18:58] <maco> caseyc: install php5-cli
[18:58] <maco> caseyc: it provides phpapi-20090626

[18:59] <Blue1> corigo: lsusb
[19:00] <bonks> I installed a fresh ubuntu server edition so I can set up a subversion server. Is there anything I should do in terms of security, maintenance, etc before continuing? This server will only be accessible within my network.
[19:00] <erUSUL> corigo: run « iwconfig » see if a wlan0 appeared
[19:00] <woble> U8untu, I will almost recommend backing up your entire disc, for the sake of being sure. But when you follow the guidelines it is quiet safe to grab a livedisc and install ubuntu on partition C:\  <-- C:\ is a windows partition so it will have a different name in the installer
[19:00] <U8untu> woble so all my photos, music, and other documents are in other partitions.. not C:\ .. i want to put only the ubuntu on C:\ and delete the windows .. but i dont know how to make a bootable disc
[19:01] <IdleOne> U8untu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[19:01] <pardac> dorbin: I reinstalled the flash but the same thing. It plays videos embedded but on full screen I see only white blank full screen, no picture.
[19:01] <Blue1> U8untu: bootable - hard drive or bootable cd?
[19:01] <maco> caseyc: i dont know... assuming everything's up to date, it should work. my rackspace does seem happy to install phpmyadmin
[19:01] <U8untu> Blue1 cd
[19:01] <caseyc> maco: how can i verify that everything is up to date?
[19:01] <Blue1> U8untu: that will be done when you burn the iso image...
[19:01] <maco> caseyc: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:01] <lava1> Banished, I am still having issue for displaying on tv with VGA cable
[19:01] <andrew__> is there a rootkit detector in karmic koala
[19:01] <caseyc> maco, ill try right now
[19:02] <dorbin> pardac: have you tried another driver for your video card?
[19:02] <corigo> Ok, in lsusb I see an Ralink device, and under iwconfig I see wlan0 as Managed... now how can I see a list of available wireless networks

[19:02] <corigo> Blue1: no, that's eggsalad | fork
[19:02] <lucenut> Just black.
[19:02] <LibertyZero> bonks: ubuntu server has very reasonable defaults so you will be fine :-)
[19:02] <pardac> dorbin: As far as I know there is just one driver - openchrome for VIA and I'm using that. Do you know any other?
[19:02] <erUSUL> corigo: up right corner near the clock
[19:02] <Blue1> corigo: heh
[19:02] <U8untu> Blue1 and if i burn the image to a usb flash drive..will it boot it? will i boot it and install it on local disc C:\ (instead of windows)?
[19:03] <Blue1> U8untu: you'd use the usb creator
[19:03] <dorbin> pardac: ..or uninstall it to see if flash works without the video-driver?
[19:03] <lava1> Any one please help me iam having issue with my external display, when i connect my tv with vga cable the tv and system displays blank and system freezes.
[19:03] <corigo> erUSUL: A little too obvious, no networks listing up there, only options appear to be Create New or Connect to Hidden.

[19:03] <andrew__> I tried finding rkhunter and i could not

[19:04] <pardac> dorbin: Can I do that? When video driver is uninstalled will I be able to see anything then?
[19:04] <en1ac3r> can some one else try...see if you get the gator host page....?

[19:05] <en1ac3r> http://www.ultimateedition.info/                          sorry
[19:05] <Blue1> U8untu: okay what do you have?  have you downloaded the iso, and verified (via md5sum) that you got a good download?
[19:05] <U8untu> and where do i find the iso image for ubuntu? :D
[19:05] <IdleOne> en1ac3r: ultimate edition is not supported here and is offtopic. please search for support regarding that somewhere else
[19:05] <davide_> dir
[19:05] <erUSUL> U8untu: www.ubuntu.com
[19:05] <U8untu> Blue1 md what? :D
[19:05] <caseyc> maco: im reading that i need php5-cgi which also has the rc status
[19:05] <Blue1> U8untu: oh boy
[19:05] <caseyc> could that be it?
[19:06] <U8untu> Blue1 i`m newbie in ubuntu :D
[19:06] <Blue1> U8untu: you must be a noob
[19:06] <maco> caseyc: maybe? try installing both
[19:06] <U8untu> Blue1 no..i am just new in ubuntu.. i used just windows
[19:06] <caseyc> maco, can we do pm?
[19:06] <Blue1> U8untu: go there and download the iso
[19:07] <maco> caseyc: i dont really have any more solutions to offer, sorry
[19:07] <en1ac3r> oh aircrack !
[19:08] <caseyc> maco: one last thing: php5-cgi says it needs php5-common (= 5.3.2), but  5.2.10 installed
[19:08] <Blue1> U8untu: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[19:08] <maco> caseyc: 5.3.2 is whats in the repos
[19:08] <U8untu> Blue1 im downloading it..but..it says 3 hours remaining :D
[19:08] <caseyc> maco: i have php5-common installed though
[19:09] <caseyc> 5.2 on my local box
[19:09] <caseyc> and it works
[19:09] <Italian_Plumber> interesting that all the default options during install are still "USA".
[19:09] <U8untu> Blue1 55 kb/s the download speed... good
[19:09] <maco> caseyc: is your local box running a different version of ubuntu?
[19:09] <Blue1> U8untu: kewl all the directions on how to make a cd or bootable usb drive are there.
[19:09] <U8untu> i mean..god damnit :))
[19:09] <caseyc> maco: no same
[19:09] <maco> caseyc: disagree
[19:09] <caseyc> ubuntu 10.04
[19:09] <maco> caseyc: 5.2.10 is in 9.10
[19:10] <caseyc> maco: i installed 5.2 so i can get memcache to work
[19:10] <maco> caseyc: then nothing php from repos will work for you
[19:10] <U8untu> thx 4 help Blue1  and the other ones... :) have a nice day
[19:10] <caseyc> maco, can i do anything manually?
[19:10] <solow> is it possible to do this: $this->addElement(((true) ? 'something' : 'something else'));
[19:11] <maco> caseyc: you need to manually install all your php (whether using 9.10's debs or compiling) and then lock version on it to keep updates from overwriting
[19:11] <solow> wrong channel sorry
[19:11] <maco> caseyc: of course... download the debs, and install with sudo dpkg -i
[19:11] <leahey> is there a netbook remix specific channel?
[19:11] <caseyc> ok
[19:11] <caseyc> thanks maco
[19:11] <maco> caseyc: then "sudo aptitude hold <package names>" to say that those should never be updated
[19:11] <maco> caseyc: from a security standpoints it's a stupid thing to do, but...
[19:15] <projeta> howdy, I need help setting up a cron job. the /var/log/cron.log says my script was run but some of the commands inside the script are not executed. how can I debug this?
[19:15] <Blue1> projeta: run it manually in a terminal window and look at the output
[19:15] <projeta> Blue1: if run on a terminal, the script runs just fine
[19:16] <Blue1> projeta: what about the system log -- dmesg
[19:16] <leahey> what does everyone use as a twitter client, if i may ask?
[19:16] <Blue1> leahey: what ever is built into ff
[19:17] <projeta> Blue1: it's only listing the startup stuff
[19:17] <leahey> a ff extension, Bluel?
[19:18] <Blue1> leahey: what ever comes with ff I just go to twitter url and login.
[19:18] <xangua> leahey: ubuntu brings gwibber for twitter, facebook, etc by default
[19:18] <corigo> when I shut down, the OS closes, and video shuts off, but the machine remains powered up... any thoughts?
[19:18] <leahey> xangua, yeah I see that, I find gwibbers ui to be appealing but it doesnt seem to support lists

[19:21] <stijn> i would like to install: wireless-N network PCI card WL-181
[19:21] <pardac> It's an issue of video card driver. Without it I could play video and flash. Strange thing is that I had no problems with video on previous verisons
[19:21] <webczat> Why the newest syslinux tells me that vesamenu.c32 is not a com32 bootable image? he?
[19:21] <pgpkeys> gdm works perfectly, kdm doesn't reset the screen correctly

[19:25] <sarthor> i have hp proliant ml110 no OS installed, how to check that this machine is 32 or 64 bit?
[19:25] <Italian_Plumber> appamajig: you have to boot to some other partition other than the one hta tyou want to re-size... the easiest way to do that is to use a live CD
[19:26] <erUSUL> appamajig: you can boot into recovery mode and use command line tools from it ( after umounting the home partition )
[19:26] <erUSUL> sarthor: use a livecd ?
[19:26] <Blue1> sarthor: head on hover to http://www.hp.com and find that computer there - it will tell you the specs
[19:26] <erUSUL> sarthor: or check the maker docs about the machine
[19:27] <sarthor> ok
[19:27] <appamajig> Italian_Plumber, erUSUL: Ok thanks guys I appreciate the feedback!

[19:29] <sarthor> i am not an expert ,is this mean that this machine is 64bit? "Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 Release 2, Workgroup x64 Edition (320 GB SATA model)"
[19:29] <tstaerk> kde-core: Depends: arts (>= 1.4.2) but it is not going to be installed
[19:29] <erUSUL> wilhart: there is a pulseaudio equalizer... i needed a ppa to install it
[19:29] <erUSUL> !ppa | wilhart
[19:29] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: keep going  :)
[19:29] <tstaerk> apt-get install arts
[19:29] <outer_space> my sound icon got grayed out after an update yesterday and now sound doesnt work, what can I do?
[19:29] <tstaerk> says
[19:30] <Blue1> sarthor: again do your homework and go to the site and check.
[19:30] <erUSUL> sarthor: if it can run x64 version of windows it is 64 bits
[19:30] <kisplit> Is there an easy way I can figure out what is fixed/new features to a package that is being upgraded? For example, chromium ppa has a new update and I like to know what's been fixed, etc
[19:30] <ChogyDan> sarthor: FYI, you can just use 32bit, then you don't need to worry about 64 vs 32
[19:31] <sarthor> ChogyDan, great, yes. i wanna install 32bit os on the machine.
[19:31] <erUSUL> wilhart: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/02/pulseaudio-system-wide-equalizer-now.html <<< this
[19:31] <Italian_Plumber>  how can I get the alternate install CD to use my local apt-cache?
[19:31] <tstaerk> You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
[19:31] <tstaerk> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[19:31] <tstaerk>   psa-backup-manager: Depends: psa-9.3.0
[19:31] <ChogyDan> sarthor: yeah, then it doesn't matter.  64bit machines can run 32bit
[19:31] <wilhart> ok tnx.
[19:31] <stijn> erUSUL: no driver inside system/admin/hardware
[19:32] <pgpkeys> chogydan ~ you can use apt-listchanges
[19:32] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: oh, you need to run the apt-get -f install
[19:32] <U8untu> woble how did you say? or it was Blue1  ?? how to verify if i have downloaded the right ubuntu? what command? md5 .... ?? what? :D
[19:32] <sn3ipen_> kisplit: No if the packager didnt include a changelog in the package you have to do a google search about the actual program.
[19:32] <woble> U8untu md5 checksum.. but to be honest, i never check
[19:32] <pardac> Where are video card driver settings stored in Ubuntu 10.04?
[19:33] <pgpkeys> if its an official package it damn well better include a changelog!
[19:33] <ChogyDan> pgpkeys: was that for kisplit?
[19:33] <stijn> erUSUL: no driver inside system/admin/hardware
[19:33] <U8untu> woble how is that md5 checksum?
[19:33] <appamajig> kisplit: often-times a google search for MyProgram changelog will give you that info
[19:33] <pgpkeys> chogydan ~ no for reading changes in packages
[19:33] <IdleOne> !md5 | U8untu
[19:33] <U8untu> in a new terminal woble  ?
[19:33] <Italian_Plumber> you can also verify it after you burn it and put it in the computer.. yeah it's too late by then if it's bad, but I've never had a bad one

[19:34] <DrPoO> i have an ati card and have been having flickering issues with my external monitor. After googling around I installed a new kernel -2.6.34-020634rc6 ... and now my window decorations in 10.04 disappear at random times. Help
[19:34] <xangua> prefrontal: are you using 64bit OS¿
[19:34] <nellie> for ubuntu 10.04 how do you get the floating dock like on osx ?  I have compiz running now with effects on if that means anything
[19:34] <kisplit> sn3ipen_ and appamajig: Thanks for the info =]
[19:34] <OpenSourceCode> Does anyone know how to solve problem watching flash movies (youtube,..) on fullscreen is laggy. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, with ubuntu's graphics drivers.
[19:34] <prefrontal> xangua, yes
[19:35] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: I dunno.  Can you pastebin all the output?
[19:35] <xangua> prefrontal: well that's the problem :S
[19:35] <Varuna_Senevirat> Hi I am new to Ubuntu, I want to know how to connect to the Internet after installing Ubuntu
[19:35] <ChogyDan> OpenSourceCode: I would start with the cpu frequency applet
[19:35] <Varuna_Senevirat> I have a router
[19:35] <xangua> Varuna_Senevirat: clic in the network icon, select your network, enter your password
[19:35] <stijn> trying to install chip:rt2800 802.11n pci. wireless signals are visible, but unable to connect
[19:36] <Varuna_Senevirat> can any body help?
[19:36] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, http://pastebin.com/4pKJtvQE
[19:36] <Varuna_Senevirat> where is the network icon?
[19:36] <OpenSourceCode> chogydan, where?
[19:36] <appamajig> ChogyDan: the cpu frequency applet? the one that changes the cpu frequency on the fly? I would think that that would not affect it...
[19:36] <appamajig> OpenSourceCode: Who manufactured your video card?
[19:37] <OpenSourceCode> nvidia
[19:37] <david_> is btrfs useable in ubuntu server?
[19:37] <appamajig> ChogyDan: it should change the cpu frequency fast enough that it wouldn't affect anything except power consumption
[19:37] <AkuZ`> MeSko
[19:37] <xangua> david_: i don't think btrfs is usable still
[19:37] <appamajig> OpenSourceCode: may want to try installing the newest drivers from the nvidia website newest non-beta drivers are 256.35.
[19:37] <OpenSourceCode> when I watch in normal mode... it's normal
[19:38] <ChogyDan> OpenSourceCode: you gotta right click your panel, and add to panel, add cpu frequency monitor.    it does, flash doesn't maintain a high cpu usage, so you get stuttering
[19:38] <OpenSourceCode> but...they're not open source?
[19:38] <appamajig> ChogyDan: ah, I didn't know about that bug
[19:38] <david_> xangua: but I read that btrfs is going to be the default fs in ubuntu 10.10
[19:38] <Nikie> Hello Folks ! Need some help
[19:38] <Varuna_Senevirat> xangua: what do u mean by network icon
[19:38] <xangua> david_: unless it was in mark's blog or something i don't think so
[19:38] <appamajig> OpenSourceCode: you'll be looking for CPU Frequency Monitor
[19:39] <stijn> install nvidea drivers via system/admin/hardware drivers
[19:39] <Oer> david_,  no btrfs will be an option
[19:39] <xangua> Varuna_Senevirat: the one little network icon in your upper corner
[19:39] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: what are those packages?
[19:39] <tstaerk> no idea they are from my hoster.
[19:39] <david_> xangua: no, it for example is written in http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-10-10-Alpha-2-Gets-Linux-Kernel-2-6-35-and-Btrfs-145922.shtml
[19:39] <DrPoO>  anybody here ever experienced problems with an ATI card on a laptop???
[19:39] <BlueEagle> Nikie: Then I suggest you tell us what you need help with...
[19:39] <Nikie> what's the application similar to that of a winzip in ubuntu ?
[19:39] <Varuna_Senevirat> and what is the network that I should select
[19:39] <DrPoO> with the VGA output...
[19:39] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, they establish a connection to mysql somehow, but I do not want this.
[19:39] <stijn> trying to install chip:rt2800 802.11n pci. wireless signals are visible, but unable to connect. anyone?
[19:40] <Pici> david_: Its not default.  And 10.10 discussion belongs in #ubuntu+1
[19:40] <Ober7> Nikie: archive amanger
[19:40] <Nikie> BlueEagle - Is Archive Manager
[19:40] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: where did you get psa-imp?
[19:40] <Ober7> manager*
[19:40] <appamajig> DrPoO: yeah, lots. It's a tough deal to get drivers installed for it. What video chipset do you have on your laptop?
[19:40] <Nikie> oh! alright :D Thank you !
[19:40] <Italian_Plumber> nikie: ubuntu (and windows) have archiving/zipping built in
[19:40] <david_> But Maverick Meerkat is quite near and I am just rebuilding my server and I want a good file system. Pici good to know, Ill switch over ;)
[19:40] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, it was installed when I got the server from my hoster.
[19:40] <Nikie> so, we can zip the files with Archive Manager and unzip as well ?
[19:40] <Ober7> Nikie: just double click the zip file and it should work
[19:41] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: are you running Ubuntu?
[19:41] <stijn> trying to install chip:rt2800 802.11n pci. wireless signals are visible, but unable to connect. anyone?

[19:41] <tstaerk> Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS
[19:41] <Varuna_Senevirat> xangua:network icon in your upper corner, is it the right upper corner
[19:41] <DrPoO> appamajig, I have an X1300 Mobility Radeon
[19:41] <Ober7> Nikie: or right click file/s and choose compress
[19:42] <DrPoO> appamajig, had problems with the vga output... but fixed that by updating the kernel...
[19:42] <Italian_Plumber> rar and tar .. .and unzip ... are all available too... but if all you need is simple compression, use archive manager
[19:42] <DrPoO> appamajig, and now my window decorations are desapearing
[19:42] <DrPoO> :p
[19:42] <appamajig> oh
[19:42] <BlueEagle> Nikie: The .zip fileformat is not so popular in Linux as it is in Windows. Linux users tend to favour other compression algorithms like bz2 and 7z.
[19:42] <Varuna_Senevirat> Xangua: what is the network that I should select?
[19:43] <appamajig> DrPoO: you mean the outline and top bar of the windows?
[19:43] <xangua> Varuna_Senevirat: aah....your network¿
[19:43] <Ober7> Varuna_Senevirat: the network of your router
[19:43] <DrPoO> appamajig, yup
[19:43] <Italian_Plumber> one of the main reasons I like ubuntu is that the unrar program/command is free and easy to install and use.
[19:43] <DrPoO> appamajig, and strange things happen when i enable composting
[19:43] <Varuna_Senevirat> DrPoO: I don't really get it
[19:43] <Italian_Plumber> many torrents come rar'ed and it's nice to have a simple program to unrar them with
[19:44] <Nikie> What's the importance of it ? I mean how is it better over .zip ? If you wouldn't mind ? :)
[19:44] <bugaloo> people... does anyone know a good program to transmit an audio streaming with ubuntu 10.04? I want to listen remotly what is going on my remote laptop
[19:44] <appamajig> DrPoO: what driver are you using? fglrx? or the ATI-provided drivers?
[19:44] <DrPoO> fglrx
[19:44] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: well, it looks like psa-imp is failing to remove, but I've no idea what that is.  You can force it to remove by deleting /var/lib/dpkg/info/psa-imp.postrm and then running apt-get remove psa-imp
[19:44] <Nikie> I'm quit new to LInux/ubuntu. Appreciate your time !
[19:44] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, that sounds like a solution!
[19:44] <DrPoO> woops its the ATI drivers
[19:45] <Typh> Italian_Plumber: combine it with atool :). "aunpack" will unpack/uncompress pretty much everything with the one command, no flags
[19:45] <appamajig> DrPoO: and what do you mean by 'strange things' with composite? (I'm assuming with compiz?)
[19:45] <kyle_> error on install of picasa, anyone help?

[19:45] <Varuna_Senevirat> xangua: the network of your router, does it mean the router, how will it be displayed in the settings
[19:45] <Italian_Plumber> Typh: is that command-line?  I run ubuntu with no GUI
[19:45] <Oer> itś a wine problem, kyle_
[19:45] <Typh> Italian_Plumber: yep
[19:46] <appamajig> DrPoO: hmmm, might wanna try updating to the newest drivers from the ATI website. It can be an ordeal to get installed. I'll find the link
[19:46] <Italian_Plumber> *rubs hands together like mad scientist*
[19:46] <kyle_> not wine, is a linux install
[19:46] <Ober7> Italian_Plumber: no gui, why not debian them?
[19:46] <apn> Nikie: zip by itself does not hold permissions and other attributes common for unix. To go around this problem, create .tar archive first, and zip the file. As to zip, there are better results with other compression methods.
[19:47] <DrPoO> appamajig, I can reproduce the dissapearence of the window decorations by simply changing the graphic settings on gnome from none to normal.
[19:47] <wilhart> erUSUL: got it working .. changed video/audo to pulse server now eq works
[19:47] <Italian_Plumber> wow... the new .1 release of lucing is taking FOREVER to install on my virtual machine... maybe I should have given it more than 256 MB of RAM.
[19:47] <DrPoO> appamajig, thats what i meant
[19:47] <Italian_Plumber> Ober7: not sure what you're asking
[19:47] <DrPoO> appamajig, i could try running fglrx?
[19:47] <grubrecue> hi, ive accidentally deleted the partition with ubuntu on, now my sytem is getting "error: unknown filesystem//grub rescue>" how do i boot into windows 7 from here
[19:47] <Vardan> hi all
[19:47] <alexandre> hi
[19:47] <Varuna_Senevirat> hey guys my network type?
[19:47] <Oer> kyle_,  yes it does http://wiki.winehq.org/picasa
[19:48] <weed37> hey guys i have a question how do i run windows apps from ubuntu
[19:48] <Ober7> Why would your run Ubuntu w/ no gui, id rather run debian.
[19:48] <Nikie> oh! ya..I've heard of .tar n used it before..but wasn't sure of the importance..
[19:48] <Nikie> :)
[19:48] <coz_> grubrecue,  you will have to reinstall the windows boot ini
[19:48] <xangua> !appdb | weed37
[19:48] <grubrecue> coz_howw?
[19:48] <weed37> ty
[19:48] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, big thanks - worx.
[19:48] <Guest5132> i'm a great problem with windows 7 , please help me
[19:48] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: yw
[19:48] <wilhart> erUSUL: there?
[19:49] <coz_> grubrecue,  look here   http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/720866-how-can-i-restore-the-windows-7-bootloader/  at  _Snow!'s response
[19:49] <apn> Guest5132: What's the problem?
[19:49] <appamajig> DrPoO: you could try fglrx for sure... might work
[19:49] <Pici> Guest5132: This channel is for Ubuntu support only, please use ##windows for Windows support.
[19:49] <kyle_> Oer: i'm not using wine.
[19:49] <Italian_Plumber> I run ubuntu without a GUI because I have a laptop from work that's XP... I use it for my GUI machine, but I like to have my own ubuntu machine to run rtorrent, subversion, and for virtual machine hosting... none of which needs a GUI
[19:49] <rockhopper> hi
[19:49] <Oer> kyle_,  read after point 5 ... running the Linux version (with its built-in wine)
[19:49] <Guest5132> Pici : my windows 7 is dead tomorrow
[19:49] <appamajig> DrPoO: I would think that this is almost certainly a driver issue. what kernel version are you running? have you ran the update manager lately?
[19:50] <coz_> grubrecue,   or here    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392
[19:50] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, rpm has something called nopreun
[19:50] <tstaerk> for no pre uninstall
[19:50] <Vardan> people I have problem with my USB flash drive. When I plug it in ubuntu mount that, but I couldn't create/copy anything on that, also I can't delete anything from there. Here is an error message: "Error removing file: Read-only file system"
[19:50] <tstaerk> and nopostin
[19:50] <tstaerk> for you info.
[19:50] <rockhopper> I'm running UNR on ma new netbook.. And i have a router, which has only two outputs, one's a normal ethernet adapter and the other's a usb ethernet . I want to use the usb port for the linux, but I amm unable to find the drivers nor any knid of information about it
[19:50] <Varuna_Senevirat> can any body please explain what is the network that should be selected when configuring a network connection through Ubuntu using a DSL router
[19:50] <apn> Guest5132: I'm sorry. You will have to contact Microsoft channels or Windows community channels to get it back running.
[19:50] <rockhopper> Can anyone help me?
[19:50] <Guest5132> hi
[19:50] <ChogyDan> tstaerk: interesting.  I don't know if dpkg has those, I'll have to check
[19:51] <Ober7> Italian_Plumber: ubuntu is essentially debian + gui + other user friendly tools
[19:51] <appamajig> DrPoO: you said that you fixed a problem with the VGA output, right? does that mean that it would work on the laptop screen, but not to an external monitor? might want to take a look at this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[19:51] <apn> rockhopper: Probably, but you will have to express your problem first.
[19:51] <tstaerk> ChogyDan, I have looked for them some hours.
[19:51] <Ober7> Italian_Plumber: so if u wanna ditch the gui, use debain lol
[19:51] <Italian_Plumber> Ober7: I acutally run ubuntu server
[19:52] <grubrecue> coz_: i have a problem that my dvd drive is broken so i cant put my windows disc in to boot from!
[19:52] <kyle_> Oer: I see. how do i fix?
[19:52] <Ober7> Italian_Plumber: ahh ok
[19:52] <rockhopper> can someone help me please with how to configure a usb ethernet on my ubuntu?
[19:52] <bhauff> Should there be 5 or so postgres processes running on a stock 10.0.4 VM?
[19:52] <coz_> rockhopper,  check here maybe   https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html
[19:52] <Italian_Plumber> I dunno.. what does Debian have that Ubuntu server doesn't? ... or what does Ubuntu server have that I don't need? :)
[19:52] <pgpkeys> bhauff ~ yes
[19:52] <coz_> grubrecue,  that is going to be a problem then hold on
[19:52] <bhauff> pgpkeys: What are they used for?
[19:52] <DrPoO> appamajig, its fixed in the sense that every works perfectly: my monitor, my external vga and i can use Fn+F7 to change xrandr modes
[19:53] <koopa2> exit
[19:53] <Vardan> any solution for my problem?
[19:53] <itsux2bu> is X windows and gnome, kde all the same thing?
[19:53] <Guest5132> my great mother is dead
[19:53] <apn> grubrecue: please contact Microsoft channel for this, or #windows.
[19:53] <itsux2bu> are they all desktop gui's?
[19:53] <Italian_Plumber> itsux2bu: They are all GUIs for Linux, but they are not the same.
[19:53] <pgpkeys> writer, wal writer, autovacuuming of tables, and stats collector above and beyond the controlling server process itself
[19:53] <DrPoO> appamajig, im running 2.6.34-020634rc6-generic
[19:53] <Varuna_Senevirat> any solution for me please?
[19:53] <pgpkeys> bhauff ~ I'd suggest reading the postgresql docs from the main site
[19:53] <pgpkeys> explains a lot of stuff for you
[19:53] <bhauff> pgpkeys: Ok, thanks for the help there!
[19:54] <DrPoO> appamajig, its on a amd64 platform
[19:54] <pgpkeys> welcome
[19:54] <kyle_> anyone know of an app that works like picasa? for ubuntu 10.4
[19:54] <grubrecue> apn: i though here was relevant because i can only get grub recue command to show and nothing else sorry
[19:54] <ChogyDan> kyle_: have you tried f-spot?
[19:54] <Pici> kyle_: f-spot?
[19:54] <coz_> grubrecue,   I cant think of any way to  recover the master boot record withouth the windows7 dvd
[19:55] <erUSUL> wilhart: congrats
[19:55] <coz_> grubrecue,  do you have a working cd player?
[19:55] <grubrecue> thanks i will try windows channel :)
[19:55] <appamajig> DrPoO: aha! I think this is what you need: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[19:55] <grubrecue> coz: im on a laptop :/ thanks again
[19:55] <coz_> grubrecue,  ok
[19:55] <DrPoO> appamajig, its on 10.04 though
[19:56] <Oer> kyle 3 is still beta To get patches on Picasa for Linux, go to http://code.google.com/wine.html. Please note that most of these patches are already in the main wine tree at winehq.org.
[19:56] <pardac> Thanks a lot, have a nice time! Bye for now!
[19:56] <Varuna_Senevirat> DrPoO:  please explain what is the network that should be selected when configuring a network connection through Ubuntu using a DSL router
[19:56] <kyle_> PICASA, Well i have images on a smb://.  the thumbnails do not show pictures, so wanted something like picasa to show all pictures. if you get me.
[19:57] <george_> is there a program similar to Hamchi for ubuntu
[19:57] <appamajig> DrPoO: ah, yeah, that's not the one I was thinking of. I ran into problems getting ATI drivers installed on my laptop as well. I found a great link that explained everything. One moment I'm still looking for it
[19:57] <appamajig> DrPoO: I had to use those instructions to get decentish opengl working
[19:57] <appamajig> DrPoO: looking closer, that's definitely not what I used
[19:57] <bhauff> pgpkeys: Hmm, the documentation I found is describing how to install postgres on 10.0.4, but it seems to come preinstalled and running.
[19:58] <apn> grubrecue: Not really. It's not really up to grub, but Microsoft Windows design itself. Microsoft channel will have to help you with alternative means of installation.
[19:58] <DARKGuy> whoah, crazy proxy stuff
[19:58] <pgpkeys> bhauff ~ you just need to dig through the docs
[19:58] <DARKGuy> anyways, anybody knows how do I avoid the dialog "run in terminal - display - etc" when I double-click a +x file on my desktop ?
[19:58] <kyle_> PICASA, Well i have images on a smb://.  the thumbnails do not show pictures, so wanted something like picasa to show all pictures. if you get me.
[19:59] <pgpkeys> i can't give you the EXACT sub-procs that are run. those are the ones it normally runs and I've generally explained what they do
[19:59] <Varuna_Senevirat> xangua: Please help
[20:00] <DrPoO> appamajig, ill give the binary drivers a shot
[20:00] <DrPoO> and see how it goes
[20:00] <DrPoO> bye
[20:01] <minimec> DARKGuy: right click on the icon -> properties -> make it executable.
[20:01] <nebula_> now update 10.04.1 ...?
[20:01] <itsux2bu> i installed Virtualbox and Ubuntu 10.04 server with LAMP on my windows vista system. my router has assigned ubuntu a "local" IP address.. but how can someone on the other side of my router see my ubuntu/LAMP system?
[20:01] <LibertyZero> kyle_: The File Manager does not show previews for remote locations by default. You can change that behaviour in the preferences
[20:02] <LibertyZero> Varuna_Senevirat: Are we talking about wireless or a cable connection to the router?
[20:02] <Trikkex> I love ubuntu but not all my games work so I decided to try and dual boot with win7. But not a single copy of windows I have in my possession will work, they all say the HDD is missing. But yet ubuntu works fine. Am I missing something here?
[20:03] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero:cabel connection to the router
[20:03] <nouwanda> Hi!
[20:03] <bonks> I'm using ubuntu server edition, how do can I make editing in the cmd line easier? Such as using arrow keys, copy/paste, last command, etc. I don't have these abilities
[20:03] <vvvv> Hello
[20:03] <DARKGuy> minimec: I did, but it shows the dialog :/
[20:03] <Trikkex> @bonks to paste you have to do ctrl+shift+v
[20:04] <red> In my nautilus there are no text next or below icons in any other view than List view :/
[20:04] <red> Same on desktop
[20:04] <red> Any idea what I could have misconfigured?
[20:04] <pgpkeys> trikkex ~ make sure that windows is installed first and on the first partition
[20:04] <itsux2bu> bonks, you can't press up arrow for previous commands?
[20:04] <bonks> itsux2bu: I cannot. I'm also running it within vmware player
[20:04] <pgpkeys> windows does NOT like being put elsewhere. also make sure that your particular IDE controller is supported by windows. most are but you might have an offboard SATA it doesn't have a driver for or something
[20:05] <appamajig> DrPoO: I have to run, I wish you luck!
[20:05] <minimec> DARKGuy: Is that a start script or or a prism WebPage Starter or something kike that?
[20:06] <Trikkex> @pgpkeys I tried to install windows before and after linux. I had windows installed and got a nasty virus (surprise surprise) and wiped out everything, but I accidently deleted all the partitions, so I'm guessing I killed the SATA drivers as well. How the F do I reinstall SATA drivers?
[20:06] <vvvv> there is something strange in my windows, the X button to close, the _ button to minimize and the square button to maximize are in the left side od the window, how to change it to the right side? maybe with configuration editor Gconf?
[20:06] <itsux2bu> bonks, i'm running ubuntu server in virtualbox
[20:06] <Pici> !controls | vvvv
[20:06] <mikeru> wait, is this windows support channel or something?
[20:06] <maco> vvvv: its just the theme
[20:06] <maco> mikeru: no...ubuntu
[20:06] <DARKGuy> minimec: it's a bash script :P
[20:06] <mikeru> then... what's up with this windows discussion?
[20:07] <pgpkeys> mikeru ~ dual booting
[20:07] <mikeru> ahh
[20:07] <pgpkeys> the little gotchas that go along with it :)
[20:07] <heoa> how to reset buffalo whr-54g? press the top key down, press reset key down, power on, wait 30 seconds, power off -- but cannot reset it.
[20:07] <vvvv> maco, got it
[20:07] <maco> mikeru: vvvv was referring to the windows that are managed by your window manager in ubuntu...
[20:07] <mikeru> proceed :)
[20:07] <pgpkeys> heh
[20:07] <LibertyZero> Varuna_Senevirat: Does the router establish the connection to the internet by itself? Please right click on the network symbol and click on Connection Information. D you have an IP address?
[20:07] <Trikkex> @mikeru Have you every tried to ask Microsoft for help? people here are much better lol
[20:07] <vvvv> I was trying Atlante to reduce cpu usage xD
[20:07] <look> how do i force a partition to mount?
[20:07] <vvvv> Atlanta*
[20:07] <pgpkeys> trikkex ~ yeah but we only respond as it relates to dual boots and possible driver issues
[20:07] <mikeru> Trikkex: have you? I have never bothered in my whole life.
[20:08] <bonks> itsux2bu: I think i'll switch over to virtualbox then
[20:08] <pgpkeys> if you are looking for specific windows help outside of that germane, you're pretty much screwed in here
[20:08] <sebsebseb> Hi
[20:08] <itsux2bu> host OS windows
[20:08] <itsux2bu> ?
[20:08] <Trikkex> @Mikeru: Tried once. Never got through to anyone. Never tried again
[20:08] <pgpkeys> except for like samba and stuff
[20:08] <vvvv> sharing knowledge!
[20:08] <vvvv> sk8 or die
[20:08] <look> Does anyone know how to force mount a harddrive?
[20:08] <Pici> !windows
[20:08] <mikeru> Trikkex, ouch
[20:08] <pgpkeys> yeppers, except for where the 2 integrate
[20:09] <Varuna_Senevirat> No the router does not establish Internet connection by it self,D you have an IP address? the IP address of the router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:09] <minimec> DARKGuy: Make a special starter fot it...
[20:09] <Trikkex> So anyways... Is it possible to install SATA drivers with only ubuntu installed? I know its possible to install windows after Ubuntu with a little Grub tweaking
[20:09] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero:No the router does not establish Internet connection by it self,D you have an IP address? the IP address of the router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:09] <mikeru> Trikkex, try /join ##windows, afaik you need not an OS installed.
[20:09] <pgpkeys> trikkex ~ the windows installer usually gives you the option to add drivers from a disk. F6 option iirc
[20:09] <itsux2bu> i installed Virtualbox and Ubuntu 10.04 server with LAMP on my windows vista system. my router has assigned ubuntu a "local" IP address.. but how can someone on the other side of my router see my ubuntu/LAMP system?
[20:10] <pgpkeys> but as the others are pointing out, thats outside the scope of this channel
[20:10] <DARKGuy> minimec: aw, I wanted to avoid that :P
[20:10] <Trikkex> @pgpkeys alright thanks alot, I'm gonna go give that a shot. Sorry for abusing the room ;)
[20:10] <pgpkeys> IRC is called channels not rooms like AOL, but you're welcome
[20:11] <minimec> DARKGuy: I never start my scripts via GUI... ;) Why change default behaviour, if you have that quiet elegant workaround... ;)
[20:11] <itsux2bu> and the difference between a room and a channel?
[20:11] <pgpkeys> terminology.
[20:12] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero:Under WindowsXP, IP address is <IP_ADDRESS>, subnet mask <IP_ADDRESS>, default gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:12] <coz_> itsux2bu, nothing different    tomatoe  tomato
[20:12] <pgpkeys> like fibre. makers call them strands, network guys call them channels. take your pick
[20:12] <guntbert> itsux2bu: you must configure your router to forward packets to your virtual host -- be careful  - direct access to a local machine could be harmfuls to your system
[20:12] <Varuna_Senevirat> Prefered DNS is <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:13] <itsux2bu> in the US we have elevators.. in England they have Lifts.. same damn thing
[20:13] <guntbert> !ot | itsux2bu
[20:13] <pgpkeys> yep
[20:13] <itsux2bu> so why bother correcting people?
[20:13] <LibertyZero> Varuna_Senevirat: Have you opened the Connection Information? Which IP is shown there?
[20:14] <_BEAST> Thx 4 Dns
[20:14] <pgpkeys> ok come on guys, enough with the off topic pointers. we know. a tiny bit of side conversation never hurt so long as its not a huge bulk.
[20:14] <Pici> itsux2bu: We'll be happy to discuss it in #ubuntu-offtopic, but #ubuntu is for Ubuntu support only.
[20:14] <pgpkeys> jumans sometimes need a side commect or two to feel linked in. deal with it
[20:14] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: !nice
[20:14] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: love it
[20:15] <pgpkeys> i *do* try to be nice. and I agree in general with the OT split
[20:15] <pgpkeys> some times though a comment here or there isn't bad
[20:15] <Pici> pgpkeys: Its beyond 1 comment now.
[20:15] <pgpkeys> anyways, now *I* am OT
[20:15] <itsux2bu> ok.. back to ubuntu..
[20:15] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero:In windows I manully put it, IP is <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:15] <itsux2bu> i installed Virtualbox and Ubuntu 10.04 server with LAMP on my windows vista system. my router has assigned ubuntu a "local" IP address.. but how can someone on the other side of my router see my ubuntu/LAMP system?
[20:16] <_BEAST> Varuna_Senevira: do you have a second DNS BLOCK ?
[20:16] <pgpkeys> itsux2bu ~ you need to port forward fromt he router to the virt's IP
[20:16] <llutz> itsux2bu: use port-forwarding
[20:16] <harrison> anyone here good at filesystem recovery?
[20:16] <pgpkeys> i would also make sure you apply the windows firewalling to the vm interface for additional security (as an aside)
[20:16] <Varuna_Senevirat> BEAST: I don't knw what u mean by second DNS block?
[20:17] <itsux2bu> and port-forwarding isn't part of this "channel's" topic
[20:17] <YoJack> any wimax guru here
[20:17] <pgpkeys> itsux2bu ~ i say that because I'm under the impression you are running ubuntu in a vm with windows as the host
[20:17] <_BEAST> Varuna_Senevira: NVD all g00d
[20:17] <pgpkeys> yeah thats your router's docs or its own channel
[20:17] <technikfreak> hello together is there a easyly remote tool like vnc sc for linux available?>
[20:17] <minimec> itsux2bu: If you have a local ip from the router for your virtual machine (bridge!) you should be able to configure the router to pass all incoming stuff to the IP of the virtual server.
[20:17] <_BEAST> Varuna_Senevira: I suggest you use <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> :)
[20:17] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero: My DHCP is disabled so I hve put all the settings manually
[20:18] <cn1109> Hello. When I try and ping http://www.google.com unknown host but when I ping google.com I get replies.
[20:18] <guntbert> itsux2bu: I answered 5 minutes ago already
[20:18] <zezu> How can I switch functionality of scroll wheels on a two wheel mouse?
[20:18] <red> My filenames aren't visible in nautilus. Where do I configure this? Tried googling to no avail.
[20:18] <YoJack> cn1109 check your /etc/resolv.conf
[20:18] <Varuna_Senevirat> The problem is I don't know where to put them in Ubuntu
[20:18] <LibertyZero> Varuna_Senevirat: Then right click on the network icon, select Edit Connections...
[20:18] <rww> cn1109: "ping http://www.google.com" won't work because ping takes a hostname as an argument, not a URL. try "ping www.google.com"
[20:19] <itsux2bu> sry guntbert, i missed it
[20:19] <Varuna_Senevirat> LibertyZero: Ok Ok thanks
[20:20] <cn1109> rww: That works. The only problem is I'm running apt-get update and it tries to connect to http://us.archive.ubuntu.com
[20:20] <clerical> Hello guys! I have a question about 720p playback on a Lenovo Thinkpad X60 tablett PC, Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU L2400  @ 1.66GHz, is there any chance that would work?
[20:20] <ikonia> clerical: possibly fine
[20:20] <pgpkeys> cn1109 ~ probably listed in your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[20:20] <rww> cn1109: I assume "tries" means it failed?
[20:20] <Arimoto_> does apt or dpkg have a capability to list the attribute changes (e.g., permissions, ownership, modification date, etc.) for files installed as part of a package?
[20:21] <cn1109> rww: Correct.
[20:21] <pgpkeys> or if archive.ubuntu.com is the only thing listed the servers could be configured to check where you are coming from and kick you to that country's server
[20:21] <moskitek> #wicket
[20:21] <clerical> ikonia: sweet, do you have any tips or tricks? i've installed / compiled mplayer with coreavc, but mplayer just hangs
[20:21] <rww> pgpkeys: it's set at installation using the country you chose during installation, actually
[20:21] <red> My filenames aren't visible in nautilus. Where do I configure this? Tried googling to no avail.
[20:21] <ikonia> clerical: don't compile software, that's a good tip
[20:21] <rww> cn1109: does "ping us.archive.ubuntu.com" work?
[20:22] <pgpkeys> rww ahh thanks for the clarification
[20:22] <clerical> ikonia: oks? then point me in the right direction please :)
[20:22] <ikonia> clerical: as long as the video is encoded with a sensible codec, and with reasonable settings, it should be fine, if not you either have to change encoding or get a better laptop
[20:23] <jerryscape> hey, I'm trying to install a LAMP server on my ubuntu desktop machine, I installed phpmyadmin, and apt-get says it is installed, but http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ does not exist
[20:23] <c3l> Ive removed kdm from autostart with sudo update-rc.d -f kdm disable, this was maybe not so smart in ubuntu as I now have no sound and the bootsplash never ends, I can get past it by logging in to a tty and starting x manually, but the sound is still not there, alsa reload etc doesnt help, any clues?
[20:23] <clerical> ikonia: well, yes, but that doenst help me much cause all my videos will be jerky.. when played with eg. vlc and such
[20:23] <cn1109> rww: It does.
[20:23] <clerical> ikonia: plays fine on windows 7
[20:24] <cn1109> rww: Should I change the source list and remove http?
[20:24] <rww> cn1109: no, the http's supposed to be there
[20:24] <cn1109> rww: okay
[20:24] <rww> cn1109: try "sudo apt-get update", if it has errors again, copy the entire output to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the page it creates here
[20:24] <clerical> i read somewhere that there was an issue with intels graphics chipset and hd-playback, anyone know something about that?
[20:25] <hoodoos> excuse me, can anybody give me some help with "upstart"?
[20:25] <ikonia> clerical: then it's probably a codec issue, find out what they where encoded with
[20:25] <minimec> cn1109: That might help too...
[20:25] <minimec> cn1109: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[20:26] <vindu> Hello, when i use CTRL+ALT+F1 to open the tty¨s the only thing i see, is a blinking line :(
[20:26] <Mjuksel> guys
[20:27] <muellisoft> vindu: try alt+left or alt+right to cycle through the allocated ttys. If none is there, check /etc/init/. ttys are defined there
[20:28] <vindu> muellisoft: they are there, but it seems that nothing will happen on them, only the blinking line :(
[20:28] <cn1109> rww: Getting 404 errors on request. Still need the generated error?
[20:28] <muellisoft> vindu: check  i.e. /etc/init/tty1 whether a "getty" is actually spawned there
[20:29] <hoodoos> excuse me, can anybody give me some help with "upstart"?
[20:29] <clerical> ikonia: they are encoded with avc1
[20:30] <rww> cn1109: no. 404 errors just mean that the mirror didn't sync fully. The major ones (like the one that serve us.archive.ubuntu.com) sync pretty often, so it'll probably have fixed itself by tomorrow.
[20:30] <ikonia> clerical: never used that on linux, just having a look at it's support now
[20:30] <Greg-O> I need help, i am currently running ubuntu  and i want to switch to windows 7, but i dont have a usb/dvd big enough to hold the. iso file. how can i install windows 7 without one?
[20:30] <hoodoos_> hello, anybody hear me?
[20:30] <ikonia> Greg-O: ask in ##windows
[20:30] <Pici> !ask | hoodoos_
[20:30] <pgpkeys> nope. none of us can hear you
[20:31] <Greg-O> but im running ubuntu
[20:31] <rww> cn1109: if you need to use it before then, you can change to a different mirror. Do you want instructions for doing tha
[20:31] <rww> t?
[20:31] <_BEAST> vindu: try F1 with F7
[20:31] <ikonia> Greg-O: but you want to install windows
[20:31] <clerical> ikonia: but that'
[20:31] <ikonia> Greg-O: ask the ##windows guys for help
[20:31] <ikonia> clerical: pardon ?
[20:31] <clerical> ikonia: but that's kind of what the most videos are encoded with?
[20:31] <Greg-O> they would know what to do if was running windows, but im not
[20:31] <vindu> _BEAST: all tty shows only a blinking line
[20:31] <hoodoos> !ask
[20:31] <cn1109> rww: That would be great if you don't mind. THanks
[20:32] <ikonia> clerical: mine aren't, I use h264, xvid
[20:32] <th0r> Greg-O: you insert the install dvd in the drive and reboot
[20:32] <rww> cn1109: or, hrm, actually, I forgot something. Which Ubuntu version are you using?
[20:32] <ikonia> Greg-O: you can't install windows from within ubuntu
[20:32] <ikonia> Greg-O: they will need to guide your on other windows install methods
[20:32] <dougsko> is there some sort of trick to getting thegnome main menu editor to work right? i added a folder but i cant put anything in it
[20:32] <Greg-O> ugh, ok
[20:32] <pgpkeys> hoodoos ~ basically..
[20:32] <pgpkeys> Please ask SICCO questions :) Specific, Informative, Concise, Complete, and On-Topic. This means we need a description of the problem, it's symptoms, ect ect. Without this information, we can not assist you since we can not troubleshoot a problem if we have no info regarding what it should be doing and is not.
[20:32] <cn1109> rww: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
[20:32] <clerical> ikonia: it's h264.
[20:32] <rww> cn1109: oh, good. The other reason it might happen is if you were on an old Ubuntu version, but 10.04.1 is fine.
[20:33] <ikonia> clerical: ok, so that's a good but cpu hungry codec, monitor your cpu while playing, that's a good start
[20:33] <cn1109> rww: :) That's good
[20:33] <rww> cn1109: Are you using the command-line, GNOME, KDE, something else?
[20:33] <cn1109> rww: ssh terminal and on the console as well
[20:33] <minimec> Greg-O: You are asking us the following. He yI want to intall an illegal version of Windows and I have no install medium. What should I do? Do you really think we can give you some hints ;)
[20:33] <ikonia> clerical: also pay attention to your video card config, poor performing video card drives/config can cause choppy video too
[20:33] <_BEAST> vindu: I dont copy ? Blinking where ?
[20:33] <hoodoos> guys, I got a problem with redirecting output running my upstart script, if I run something that will fail for sure, nothing is being written in logs, but standart output is being redirected. I use following line to run my script: "exec sudo -u www-data /usr/local/bin/node /usr/local/mcore/core.js 2>&1 >> /var/log/mcore.log" core.js should generate error, but log is empty :(
[20:34] <clerical> ikonia: yes, that was why I was wondering about the intel chipset and the latest ubuntu, lucid, release
[20:34] <pgpkeys> _beast ~ mine does it too. on bootup, the first vt just shows a blinking cursor in the upper left. aftger awhile it will present you with a login
[20:34] <pgpkeys> but usually takes quite some time.
[20:34] <pgpkeys> only the first one does it on mine, not all of them
[20:35] <ikonia> clerical: ok, so to give you a clue, I'm currently on a dell laptop, with a core2 duo, and the intel driver is in use, 9 times out of 10 I can play 720p video or just under over a wirless network without any choppy effects, on rare occasions the audio pops
[20:35] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: Does it say press F1 to continue ?
[20:35] <c3l> Ive removed kdm from autostart with sudo update-rc.d -f kdm disable, this was maybe not so smart in ubuntu as I now have no sound and the bootsplash never ends, I can get past it by logging in to a tty and starting x manually, but the sound is still not there, alsa reload etc doesnt help, any clues? easies might be to add kdm back to the automatic upstart, but how?
[20:35] <ikonia> clerical: I have zero issue playing xvid4 and h264 locally
[20:35] <hoodoos> i also checked usual redirection and it works fine
[20:35] <pgpkeys> no
[20:35] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: Then its not the bios
[20:35] <pgpkeys> _beast ~ nope. just the blinking cursor
[20:35] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: Hmm
[20:35] <ikonia> clerical: just to give you an idea of what I'm seeing with a similar config/setup
[20:36] <pgpkeys> _beast ~ yeah I doubt its the BIOS, but not a problem worth looking into for me since my other VTs work
[20:36] <pgpkeys> i guess HIS are ALL not working though so he'll need to dig
[20:36] <dxtr> Can I add one interface twice to /etc/network/interfaces? I mean one for inet and one for inet6
[20:36] <rww> cn1109: Automatic way: run    sudo sed -i "s/us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu.osuosl.org/" /etc/apt/sources.list      Manual way: run "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list", change "us.archive.ubuntu.com" to "ubuntu.osuosl.org" (leaving the rest of the line intact), save, run sudo apt-get update again.
[20:36] <clerical> ikonia: alright mate! how do I find out what driver that's in use for my intel graphics?
[20:36] <ikonia> dxtr: no
[20:36] <hoodoos> maybe I should try another channel with my upstart specific problem?
[20:36] <rww> cn1109: (ubuntu.osuosl.org is a mirror in Oregon. It's the one I use, and appears to be working fine.)
[20:36] <dxtr> ikonia: So.. What's the solution? :P
[20:36] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: LOL @ dig I m am having VT isssues as well I think it  is a 64 bit issue
[20:36] <ikonia> clerical: well, as X auto dectects it will eithe rbe i810 or intel (I have much better performance with intel over i810)
[20:37] <pgpkeys> hoodoos ~ well first off you can quit messaging people privately for help.
[20:37] <ikonia> clerical: look in your xorg logs, OR try forcing the intel driver by building an xorg.conf
[20:37] <pgpkeys> *I* specifically run a whitelist of allowed nicks that can msg me, otherwise i don't see it
[20:37] <cn1109> rww: Thank you. Trying it right now
[20:37] <clerical> ikonia: coolio, i'll check it, thanks mate
[20:38] <hoodoos> pgpkeys: i'm just new here, i'm not even sure somebody hear me :)
[20:38] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: oR you could just use a blacklist
[20:38] <pgpkeys> hoodoos ~ its rude to msg without asking. and people have the right to NOT assist you know. now ask the question with as much meat as you can IN THE CHANNEL and see what happens
[20:38] <cn1109> rww: That worked. Wow that took an hour of my time.
[20:38] <ikonia> hoodoos: you've been told multiple times people can hear you
[20:38] <pgpkeys> it can take a bit for folks to respond as they might research the question, or they might need time to type out asking for more info
[20:38] <hoodoos> i'm sorry..
[20:38] <cn1109> rww: Is there a site with a list of mirrors?
[20:38] <pgpkeys> _beast ~ hehe it IS a blacklist. aka, everyone is on the blacklist until i allow them :)
[20:39] <sanduz2>  i bought a new router and i had to clone my PC's MAC address to get the WAN working. the only MAC address i registered with my ISP is my Cable Modem so why does it need my PC's MAC? doesn't make sense to me, just wondering.
[20:39] <Greg-O> ikonia: i asked ##windows, they scorned me and told me to ask #ubuntu
[20:39] <ikonia> sanduz2: ask your router vendor/isp
[20:39] <rockhopper> hi
[20:39] <route66rj> i not booting ubuntu 10.04 without monitor, someone can help ?
[20:39] <sanduz2> they are chinese so they barely understandable
[20:40] <_BEAST> pgpkeys: Unless they get a lumber list
[20:40] <rockhopper> i need some help with a driver installation
[20:40] <ikonia> Greg-O: you need to explain you want to install windows outside of ubuntu
[20:40] <pgpkeys> lumber list?
[20:40] <blink> anyone uses a Dock in here? Preferly Gnome-Do A/O Docky. Private message please.
[20:40] <rockhopper> I connected usb ethernet to my ubuntu installed pc

[20:42] <Zta> Pici: thanks
[20:42] <rww> Lukasz: I'd recommend changing your nickserv password now.
[20:42] <duffydack> Lukasz, oh dear... change your password quick.
[20:42] <Darkas> hi
[20:42] <Lukasz> yeah dam mistake

[20:42] <pgpkeys> yeah most ricky tick
[20:42] <rww> Pici: any time
[20:43] <Darkas> I'm having problems with ubuntu on my Acer Aspire 1830T
[20:43] <guntbert> hoodoos: if I read correctly your primary problem is redirection of stderr, no matter if it is an upstart script or not - you might be lucky if you ask in #bash
[20:43] <Darkas> when I first installed it (10.4), I could enable wireless with the network manager, but now the menu item is gone
[20:44] <Darkas> (after updating)
[20:44] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: ... >>/var/log/foo 2>&1
[20:44] <ikonia> Darkas: that normally happens when you've knocked the kill switch (I do it all the time)
[20:44] <Lukasz1> someone please drop Lukasz Tarkowski account I forgot my password and can't remember the email
[20:44] <rockhopper> can someone help me please?
[20:44] <ikonia> Lukasz1: ask in #freenode
[20:44] <hoodoos> prince_jammys: let me try :)
[20:44] <Lukasz1> The nickserv one
[20:44] <Lukasz1> Ok thanks
[20:44] <ikonia> Lukasz1: ask in #freenode
[20:44] <Darkas> ikona: the kill switch?
[20:44] <vindu> i still cant use the evil ttys :(
[20:45] <minimec> Darkas: First... LOoks like there is a site about your machine. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Aspire1830T
[20:45] <rockhopper> I need help about the driver installation
[20:45] <rockhopper> can someone help me?
[20:45] <monokrome> Does anyone know how to get Intel HDA 5 audio working in Ubuntu? :/
[20:45] <zezu> I have a usb phone that isn't working,  its detected in lsusb,  and its detected by pulse,  but In sound prefs. no matter of the config. i'm not getting any input from it
[20:45] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: you were saying 'send everything going to FD 2 to the same place as FD 1' _before_ sending FD1 to you log file.
[20:45] <Darkas> minimec, I've seen this one, but it didn't help
[20:45] <corigo> rockhopper: what does iwconfig say for wlan0?
[20:46] <Darkas> my cable network is working, but I can't enable wifi anymore
[20:46] <ikonia> Darkas: check the kill switch
[20:46] <minimec> Darkas: What do you mean with 'menu item'? Where? What menu?
[20:46] <Darkas> minimec: the menu of the network manager
[20:46] <zezu> hey ikonia ;p
[20:47] <ikonia> zezu: hello ?
[20:47] <Darkas> ikonia: I don't know any kill switch...?
[20:47] <ikonia> Darkas: is this a laptop ?
[20:47] <Darkas> ikona: yes
[20:47] <ikonia> Darkas: most laptops either have a switch or key sequence that enables / disabled the wirless hardware, it's called the kill switch
[20:48] <ikonia> Darkas: a lot of the time when the wirless option disappears, it's because you've hit the kill switch (I do it all the time)
[20:48] <minimec> Darkas: Right click on the network-manager icon on the panel... Is networking and wireless enabled?
[20:48] <rockhopper> corigo when i did iwconfig, for wlan0, it says IEEE 802.11dgn ESSID:off/any
[20:48] <rockhopper> MODE:managed Access Point:not associated
[20:48] <rockhopper> Tx-power=off
[20:49] <Darkas> ikonia: this isn't working... on windows, I have menu that pops up when I want to enable it, which lets me select wifi or bluetooth
[20:49] <Darkas> but here, it just enables or disables bluetooth
[20:49] <Guest95401> Hello everybody. I have a hopefully simple question: Is there an easy way to install mySQL 5.1.6+ on Jaunty (I'm stuck with Jaunty because this is a VPS running OpenVZ and I only have access inside the host or I would upgrade to Lucid)
[20:49] <Darkas> minimec: Networking enabled, wireless menu item missing
[20:49] <clerical> ikonia: do you use an xorg.conf file? i'm having trouble to figure out how to read the log-file and there find out what driver it's using
[20:50] <minimec> Darkas: open a console and type iwconfig in it. what so you get?
[20:50] <tusk> hey
[20:50] <Darkas> I have lo and eth1 both without wireless
[20:50] <Darkas> eth1 is my cable network
[20:50] <tusk> i need help with wireless
[20:50] <rockhopper> corigo i have my wifi off
[20:51] <tusk> ubuntu doesnt recognise my wireless pci adapter
[20:51] <ikonia> clerical: I used to use one with 9.10 as xorg always forced the i810, but with 10.04 it's finding the card as intel now
[20:51] <hoodoos> prince_jammys: this works this way: "exec sudo -u www-data /usr/local/bin/node /usr/local/mcore/core.js >> /var/log/mcore.log 2>&1"
[20:51] <kyle_> ok, got picasa working need to mount a smb folder.  how do in ubuntu 10.4
[20:51] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: yep
[20:52] <hoodoos> prince_jammys: btw, what does sh -c "..." should mean? since it doesn't write anything with it
[20:52] <clerical> ikonia: Ok, it seems like X is finding the correct driver for my card to
[20:52] <LukaszTarkowski> I will be right back
[20:52] <clerical> ikonia: and I that was hoping for a quick fix *sobs*
[20:52] <llutz> hoodoos: shorter: "..... & >> /var/log/mcore.log"
[20:52] <tusk> hello can anyone help me installing drivers for my wireless pci adapter.... The official website tells me to install madwifi and I get errors when installing it !
[20:52] <erUSUL> kyle_: Places>Network>Windows Network  or Places>connect to server
[20:52] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: sh -c '...'  runs sh (the system shell) with '...' as the shell script.
[20:53] <tusk> hello can anyone help me installing drivers for my wireless pci adapter.... The official website tells me to install madwifi and I get errors when installing it !
[20:53] <kyle_> is there a way to do this at boot.
[20:53] <_BEAST> There should be a separate Ubuntu wireless channel I bet half of the load would go there
[20:53] <tusk> lol
[20:53] <Darkas> minimec: I've just recognized that I have a proprietary wireless driver, but it's not in use
[20:53] <tusk> can anyone help me please... I need to get this wireless
[20:53] <rockhopper> corigo you know of any solution?
[20:53] <_BEAST> lol
[20:53] <tusk> can anyone help me please ?
[20:54] <tusk> hello can anyone help me installing drivers for my wireless pci adapter.... The official website tells me to install madwifi and I get errors when installing it !
[20:54] <ikonia> Darkas: that really sounds like a kill switch
[20:54] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: you probably needed that somewhere so that the redirections take place as a different user. otherwise >foo is set up _before_ sudo is run.
[20:54] <LukaszTarkowski> Yey I have my name back ;)
[20:54] <Guest95401> kyle_ yes you need to put it in /etc/fstab 1 sec and I'll get you the exact line
[20:54] <kyle_> erUSUL: can this be done at boot?
[20:54] <tusk> hello can anyone help me installing drivers for my wireless pci adapter.... The official website tells me to install madwifi and I get errors when installing it !
[20:54] <banished> tusk: can you please paste your lspci -k and dmesg
[20:54] <rockhopper> tusk are you using a netbook/notebook?
[20:54] <banished> !paste tusk
[20:54] <tusk> no pc
[20:54] <tusk> !paste banished
[20:54] <Darkas> ikonia: the wifi menu item in the network manager turned my wifi card on
[20:54] <erUSUL> kyle_: yes via fstab
[20:54] <minimec> Darkas: That is a good start. ;) enable it...
[20:54] <erUSUL> !samba | kyle_
[20:54] <banished> !paste | tusk
[20:54] <ikonia> Darkas: ooh, ool
[20:54] <ikonia> cool
[20:54] <tusk> hang on banished
[20:54] <Darkas> minimec: where?
[20:54] <Guest95401> kyle: //servername/sharename /mountdirectory smbfs username=windowsuserename,password=windowspassword 0 0
[20:54] <tusk> !paste | banished
[20:54] <rockhopper> coz i've seen somewhere that the wifi pci card's not being recognised in ubuntu
[20:55] <Guest95401> in fstab
[20:55] <tusk> hey banished
[20:55] <Darkas> minimec: there's just a remove button ;)
[20:55] <Seveas-train> tusk, read what ubottu says instead of just repeating the command...
[20:55] <tusk> how do i only view your replies
[20:55] <hoodoos> price_jammys: i'm not quite sure i understood everything, but i'll do my best, thanks a lot :)
[20:56] <tusk> banished i will paste but i need the commands again
[20:56] <Darkas> minimec: could it be that the module doesn't work anymore after a kernel update?
[20:56] <minimec> Darkas: PLay around with it. Just ensure, that it's on. Reboot the machines after a change.
[20:56] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: the shell sets up the redirections _before_ running a command. so ''sudo blah >somefile'' will fail if the _current_ user doesn't have permission to write to somefile.
[20:56] <banished> tusk: dmesg and lspci -k
[20:57] <kyle_> Guest95401: Do i need to reboot to make this work?
[20:57] <tusk> ive done lspci -k
[20:57] <tusk> how do i paste it in here ?
[20:57] <minimec> Darkas: You can verify that... Load an older kernel. (left <shift> for grub menu)
[20:57] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: if you run ''sudo sh -c 'blah >somefile' ''  , you're running sh via sudo, so in sh's eyes, you are root, and the redirection works.
[20:57] <kyle_> Guest95401: Also, what happens if the smb is nt avalible
[20:57] <tusk> banished: ive done it
[20:57] <tusk> banished: how do i paste it ?
[20:57] <banished> !paste | tusk
[20:58] <tusk> http://paste.ubuntu.com/480091/
[20:58] <tusk> banished: http://paste.ubuntu.com/480091/
[20:58] <Darkas> minimac: ok, I'll be back in a minute ;)
[20:58] <tusk> just realised !
[20:58] <rockhopper> Does anyone know the solution of my problem?
[20:58] <Guest95401> kyle_ you got my PMs right?
[20:58] <emidio> buonasera a tutti
[20:58] <prince_jammys> rockhopper: yes: missing question.
[20:59] <tusk> hey banished
[20:59] <crilly> where does apt-get install the 'zendframework' package?
[20:59] <crilly> got it
[20:59] <tusk> banished: Ive written "dmesg" into terminal and i get too many lines, too many that i cant scroll up any more =[
[21:00] <Guest95401> tusk: dmesg | more
[21:00] <rockhopper> prince_jammys I plugged in usb ethernet from my modem to my ubuntu netbook, and when i used lsusb, it shows as globespan Inc LAM modem, Then i downloaded and installed driver for that from http://sourceforge.net/projects/eciadsl/files/. But even after i restart, the network's not getting recognised
[21:00] <banished> tusk: the last few dozend lines should be enough
[21:00] <tusk> huh ?
[21:01] <hoodoos> prince_jammys, ah! got it
[21:01] <tusk> hang on
[21:01] <banished> tusk: you can also open /var/log/dmesg in an editor
[21:01] <hoodoos> prince_jammys, looks really strange indeed
[21:01] <prince_jammys> it's all a mess :)
[21:01] <tusk> http://paste.ubuntu.com/480092/
[21:01] <tusk> banished:http://paste.ubuntu.com/480092/
[21:02] <tusk> banished: http://paste.ubuntu.com/480092/
[21:02] <tusk> oh
[21:02] <tusk> ill do that if you need more
[21:02] <kyle_> Guest95401: PM..
[21:03] <weedar> I'm trying to find out what features seahorse-plugins provide, there isn't really much information about it online..Does anyone know?
[21:03] <rockhopper> prince_jammys do you know any solution for that problem?
[21:03] <tusk> banished: I know that my pci adapter is there, i used the ubuntu troubleshoot wireless internet connection and there was a command to check if my device was plugged in
[21:03] <banished> tusk: so you are using ndiswrapper?
[21:03] <tusk> banished: ubuntu knows its there
[21:04] <tusk> banished: i have it installed
[21:04] <prince_jammys> rockhopper: i don't
[21:04] <tusk> how do i know if i am using it ?
[21:04] <rww> weedar: right-click -> Encrypt in Nautilus, encrypt/decrypt plugins for gedit, double-click actions for encrypted files, signed files, and keyrings, etc.
[21:04] <hoodoos> prince_jammys, i got another problem now, following script (http://pastebin.com/XsQ91zeE) doesn't make my node see NODE_PATH variable when I run it. my guess is maybe export is not being made under root, however i use SUDO to start my script, where can be a problem?
[21:04] <tusk> banished: I have got windows drivers for my card but they donot work in windows and neither do they work in the windows driver application in ubuntu
[21:04] <LukaszTarkowski> offtopic wen't crazy little bit
[21:05] <tusk> banished: correction - its called windows wireless drivers
[21:05] <banished> tusk: can you do sudo modprobe acx and check if there is something in iwconfig afterwards? or dmesg
[21:05] <tusk> banished: huh?
[21:05] <rockhopper> prince_jammys, when i tried to start the driver, it says, grep:/proc/bus/usb/devices: No such fule or directory
[21:05] <weedar> rww: Thanks, that was a great answer :) double-click action for encrypted files expect a specific filename-suffix I suppose?
[21:05] <hoodoos> prince_jammys, or maybe problem in -u www-data really? so i export variable in some other context?
[21:05] <tusk> banished: ill do sudo modprobe acx and paste what is there ?
[21:05] <ispirto> hey, where is the config file for keyboard layout, it keeps changing, i'll lock it
[21:06] <rww> weedar: I'm not sure. If it uses suffixes, it'd be .asc and .gpg. It might just detect, though
[21:06] <rww> (from the file contents)
[21:06] <hoodoos> and question for everyone: what should i read to stop ask questions like that? i mean that primitive :)
[21:06] <prince_jammys> rockhopper: address the main channel; someone might help
[21:06] <tusk> banished: it says warning: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release
[21:06] <rockhopper> ok
[21:06] <tusk> banished: followed by FATAL: Module acx not found
[21:07] <bhauff> What would be the best way to login and use a Ubuntu Desktop install on a VM from Windows.  Is there a remote desktop kind of solution?
[21:07] <rockhopper> when i tried to start the driver, it says, grep:/proc/bus/usb/devices: No such fule or directory can someone help me?
[21:07] <tusk> banished: ill do ifconfig now
[21:07] <banished> tusk: hm, yes it's not included in mailine - you can get it at http://acx100.sourceforge.net/ but hang on…
[21:07] <LukaszTarkowski> What picture resizer can I use in Ubuntu?
[21:07] <tusk> banished: ok
[21:07] <erUSUL> !vnc | bhauff
[21:08] <llutz> LukaszTarkowski: convert/imagemagick
[21:08] <guntbert> hoodoos: a starting point : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[21:08] <prince_jammys> hoodoos: sudo 'cleans' the environment. try: sudo -u www-data NODE_PATH=whatever /usr/bin....
[21:08] <tusk> banished: http://paste.ubuntu.com/480096/
[21:08] <LukaszTarkowski> Is there an gui one?
[21:08] <bhauff> ubottu: How will the graphical performance be with VNC if both machines are on the same LAN?
[21:08] <csis> LukaszTarkowski, just use gimp
[21:08] <erUSUL> LukaszTarkowski: for batch converting ¿? or just a few images one by one
[21:09] <bhauff> erUSUL: Are you saying not VNC?
[21:09] <tusk> banished: http://paste.ubuntu.com/480097/
[21:09] <tusk> check that
[21:09] <soap__> hi all
[21:09] <technikfreak> bhauff normally good but you cpouldn"t watch a video over them
[21:09] <MaRk-I> LukaszTarkowski: you can use gimp, or phatch for batch conversion
[21:09] <LukaszTarkowski> yeah for bath converting erUSUL
[21:09] <rooks> bhauff, its like using xorg on some old vesa grade non accelerated 2d graphics card
[21:09] <tusk> banished: the -network UNCLAIMED is my wireless interface
[21:09] <erUSUL> bhauff: vnc is one solution you can use a Xserver in windows to run apps in ubuntu and display output in windows
[21:10] <bhauff> erUSUL: Which is preferred?
[21:10] <Darkas> minimac: it works with the older kernel
[21:10] <rooks> bhauff, yes, tunneling X over ssh is my method of choice too
[21:10] <hoodoos> prince_jammys, ah it worked.. btw, i don't feel really goot to running my script as sudo.. it doesn't seem to use any privilages. so can i make owner of the script some other user? maybe www-data and run it under it?
[21:10] <rooks> bhauff, tho on windows you need xming
[21:10] <bhauff> rooks: Do you need to use cygwin to get X in Windows or is there a way to natively install it?
[21:10] <rooks> bhauff, xming
[21:11] <banished> tusk: hm, that's odd, the driver seemed to have been included in ubuntu, but now it seems gone, you might have to compile it yourself, but beware that it is said not to work well with network manager
[21:11] <bhauff> In the past I remember using cygwin, X, putty, and X11 forwarding to make a half way decent system
[21:11] <tusk> banished: did you read sudo lshw -c network ?
[21:11] <rooks> bhauff, xming makes thing work just like that
[21:11] <tusk> banished: http://paste.ubuntu.com/480097/
