[00:00] <Coded1> any one having problems with acpi?  I was running 9.10 and after an update last week my box would become unresponsive after not being used for 30 mins, must have been sleep since I never set it to hibernate (and it never has over the past year) then after restarting I would get kernel panics on boot up.  Descided to try 10.04 and now it boots much faster but again when it sleeps / goes to low power it doesnt come back
[00:00] <Coded1> .  any suggestions?

[00:00] <hookworm24> bastid_raZor, How do i do that?
[00:00] <wild_bat> bastid_raZor, thanks
[00:00] <_blackwater_> wild_bat - oh you know what I guess I should figure out out too, don't know that one at the moment - good catch
[00:00] <mezen>  I have a question about nautilus, how to make view auto refresh ? I can not see file size increasing while downloading it. Is this behavior normal ?
[00:01] <mickster04> !nick | wyatt
[00:01] <mickster04> urgh not what i wanted
[00:01] <bastid_raZor> hookworm24: in synaptic search for linux-image and uninstal the newer kernel you have.. i assume it is 2.6.32-22
[00:01] <mickster04> wyatt: basically use nicks of who you talk to, otherwise i dont see you talking to me
[00:01] <mickster04> wyatt: however i can't help you sorry
[00:02] <bastid_raZor> wild_bat: good luck
[00:02] <wyatt> u don't know how?
[00:02] <bjhaid> ubottu, i have my nick registered alread, but whenever i want to log on with my nick says invalid password, you have any solution to this?
[00:02] <stabu> anyone know why i cant get the right resolution on a 720p tv via hdmi with ubuntu 10.4

[00:02] <bastid_raZor> bjhaid: ask in #freenode ?
[00:02] <sebsebseb> bjhaid: ubottu is a comptuer program, not a person, yes she is
[00:02] <mezen> does anybody know ?
[00:02] <sebsebseb> !gender
[00:03] <sebsebseb> !register | bjhaid
[00:03] <DocSnyd3r> there is no xorg.cfg in xubuntu but i need a way to get the resolution higher than 800x600
[00:03] <btr> lol
[00:03] <octuoa> drakeman, what type of modem are you using?
[00:03] <kop_> has /etc/inet.d/networking restart changed in 10.04 ?
[00:03] <drakeman> octuoa, is an usb modem
[00:03] <sebsebseb> !lol | btr
[00:04] <drakeman> to have wireless internet connection provided by my cellphone company
[00:04] <mezen> kop_, no, it's the same, u can either use  sudo service networking restart
[00:05] <markus_> hy everybody
[00:05] <Fox_1_> hi all
[00:05] <octuoa> it's possible to connect it, maybe with generic drivers of course
[00:05] <octuoa> drakeman, it's possible to connect it, maybe with generic drivers of course
[00:05] <respire> i need to drop ubuntu into single user mode with the NTFS driver loaded and the / file system mounted read-only
[00:05] <kop_> mezen, tnx !
[00:05] <respire> pressing Esc while booting isn't helpng me
[00:05] <respire> can you help me please? my hd is dying and i am losing data
[00:05] <btr> btr flees into his cave
[00:06] <DocSnyd3r> Identifier    "Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XP4m32" fixed it for me in ubuntu but this file does not exist in xubuntu to which i changed to save memory
[00:06] <sebsebseb> respire: put Ubuntu Live CD in, access the partition, and get hold of the data?
[00:06] <drakeman> octuoa,  thanks
[00:06] <respire> i dont have the cd
[00:06] <respire> can i do it from grub?
[00:06] <sebsebseb> respire: uhmm well
[00:06] <barbarella> respire:fist of all, have you got a backup media?
[00:06] <respire> sebsebseb, im just going to dd the whole disk into an encyrpted file into a hd a friend lent me for now
[00:06] <respire> then fix later
[00:07] <sebsebseb> respire: you can boot up Ubuntu from Grub from  the partition, if it lets you
[00:07] <respire> barbarella, no
[00:07] <uRock> That is a shame, I just threw away like 30 LiveCDs the other day.
[00:07] <respire> i threw away by ubuntu cd yesteday :(
[00:07] <jesus> hi
[00:07] <barbarella> respire:yes you have, from a friend
[00:07] <juanca> I have Ubuntu Lucid in a box with an LG flatron monitor, but I can't get the max. resolution available... it seems this is a problem with the drivers because Avant Window navigator can't display transparency, what can i do?
[00:08] <respire> barbarella, i cant keep this drive
[00:08] <DocSnyd3r> hmm no way to force resolution in xubuntu?
[00:08] <Guest21376> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[00:08] <Wicked> hello all. any ideas why my mouse would start acting weird all of a sudden?...been logged into gnome for a few days now...and just about a hour or so ago my mouse started to act weird...its not smooth and it does not respond like it did before...its jerky when moving
[00:08] <bytenik> I'm having an issue where having a certain USB device plugged in on boot causes grub to freeze at Loading stage2, and I'm not sure where to beginto troubleshoot. Can someone help?
[00:08] <uRock> Wicked, have you tried cleaning it?
[00:09] <barbarella> respire:have you bought a new disk?
[00:09] <Wicked> uRock, yes. it seems to be something related to software
[00:09] <dave> hello
[00:09] <uRock> bytenik, it is normal for a system to lock up during boot if a thumb drive or such is plugged in
[00:09] <respire> This is my question for ubuntu experts: http://pastebin.com/YRq8Cjw2
[00:10] <respire> barbarella, I will be of course, please we cant keep doing this more of my drive is dying
[00:10] <bytenik> uRock: I need this device connected... can I tell grub to ignore it?
[00:10] <respire> look at pastebin answer if you can and i will love you lots
[00:10] <uRock> I doubt it. Just plug it in after boot up
[00:11] <juanca> I have ntfs partitions in different hard disks, but in the network I can only access folders in the ubuntu partition, I can see other folders (in the ntfs partition) but it says it can not be mounted...
[00:11] <Jordan_U> bytenik: sudo apt-get install grub-pc. grub2 is smarter when it comes to drive numbers / order changing.
[00:11] <Guest16782> hello
[00:11] <bytenik> uRock: This computer is being located remotely
[00:11] <juanca> <Guest16782:
[00:11] <bytenik> I'd be happy to just have grub ignore all usb altogether -- is that possible?
[00:11] <Sonsee> juanca enough permissions?
[00:11] <Guest16782> hows it going everyone?
[00:11] <juanca> Guest16782: just ask your question
[00:11] <DocSnyd3r> nobody on the resolution thing? i got ubuntu working after hours but xubuntu has different config files
[00:11] <sebsebseb> respire: you didn't need to pate bin that
[00:12] <barbarella> respire:how do you want to use grub if your system is broken?
[00:12] <Jordan_U> bytenik: The BIOS exposes all disks the same way, there is no way in the bootloader to differentiate between internal and USB drives.
[00:12] <mezen> Sorry for repeating my question about nautilus. How to make view auto refresh ? I can not see file size increasing while downloading it. Is this behavior normal ?
[00:12] <uRock> bytenik, maybe Jordan_U's idea wil work.
[00:12] <sebsebseb> respire: Got another computer?  Got a  uhmmm 1GB or so USB stick?
[00:12] <bytenik> Jordan_U: So if I disable USB boot, that'll do it?
[00:12] <bytenik> Jordan_U: (in the bios)
[00:12] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: the trend on all the newer varieties of Ubuntu is to not include any xorg.conf file
[00:13] <Jordan_U> bytenik: Likely, yes.
[00:13] <bytenik> Jordan_U: That might just be the easiest way... let me give it a shot and I'll let you know.
[00:13] <DocSnyd3r> hmm thanks a have a working xconf file where to put this information now?
[00:13] <respire> i dont know squat about grub2 which key makes it appear and can i use a kernel arg to tell it to boot single user with the root filesys mounted RO
[00:14] <DocSnyd3r> a = i
[00:14] <barbarella> respire:sebsebseb has a good point, do you have a usb stick so you can put ubuntu on it?
[00:14] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: put your last known working xorg.conf in /etc/X11/
[00:14] <respire> barbarella, no i have nothing except this IDE drive i ripped from kind friend PC
[00:14] <Jordan_U> DocSnyd3r: Still /etc/X11/xorg.conf (there is just no xorg.conf needed or made with a fresh install)
[00:14] <Jordan_U> respire: Hold shift
[00:14] <respire> this used to be so easy before LVM and cryptsetup
[00:14] <respire> argh
[00:14] <DocSnyd3r> okay then reboot?
[00:15] <respire> now i know why people by MS
[00:15] <juanca> Sonsee: What I did with the folders was: right click > share > and checked both "allow writing" and "guest access"
[00:15] <Yomic> When signing on as the main user I set up (10.04) I am unable to use many features like shutdown (the button is greyed out on ctrl+alt+del screen) unless I do it with sudo in console.
[00:15] <respire> Jordan_U, it asks for root pass but continues to boot normally
[00:15] <respire> and / is read write
[00:15] <juanca> Sonsee: But that only works with folders in the linux partition
[00:16] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: Rebooting would be fine.
[00:16] <Sonsee> juanca how did you set up the share? which way?
[00:16] <respire> ill have to accept a read write / soon but i will try few more minutes to get it ro
[00:16] <bytenik> Jordan_U: No go... but I also boot to SUSE and I don't believe it supports grub2 yet
[00:16] <DocSnyd3r> ok will report back thanks so far
[00:16] <respire> the data i am losing is important i was very stupid and didnt back it up
[00:16] <Jordan_U> bytenik: If you install grub2 in Ubuntu it will automatically detect and add entries for SUSE
[00:17] <tomatto_> hi
[00:17] <tomatto_> please, how can i boot ubuntu livecd via grub?
[00:17] <juanca> Sonsee: right click, sharing options... it asked me to install something and I did.. after that I could share like in Windows... as I said before right click > share > and checked both "allow writing" and "guest access"
[00:17] <sebsebseb> tomatto_: you don't normalley
[00:17] <Sonsee> tomatto_ just boot from cd or usb stick, much simplier
[00:18] <eddvrs> tomatto_: you shouldn't have to go through grub. just start PC with liveCD in the drive
[00:18] <Sonsee> juanca google samba
[00:18] <Jordan_U> respire: First try adding "single" to the kernel parameter list in in grub, if that doesn't work then a really ugly hack around is to add "init=/bin/bash" instead.
[00:18] <tomatto_> eddvrs: i haven't drive
[00:18] <Sonsee> juanca that will work
[00:18] <bytenik> I don't understand the issue here with Grub Legacy anyway -- wouldn't a drive numbering issue happen much much later?
[00:18] <eddvrs> tomatto_: lol- a fair point.
[00:18] <juanca> Sonsee: Isn't this "smb:// " samba?
[00:19] <Sonsee> juanca yes
[00:19] <tomatto_> eddvrs: i need to know, how boot livecd via grub, can you help me with?
[00:19] <Sonsee> juanca it is
[00:19] <Jordan_U> bytenik: Why would you think that? grub needs to be able to read files from the filesystem, so it needs to find that filesystem first.
[00:19] <Syntropy|Laptop> {coolface}: foo
[00:19] <{coolface}> Syntropy|Laptop: Hank_el-Bashir: pukey still avoided it.
[00:19] <rj45> sup guys, why cant i click on stuff in flash? (ubuntu 10.04 64-bit)
[00:19] <respire> Jordan_U, thank you my man
[00:19] <bytenik> Jordan_U: Wait, location of the system with grub installed on it is hard-coded into the MBR?
[00:19] <Yomic> How can I troubleshoot why I cannot shutdown in 10.04 without using sudo in a console (ie. the GUI shutdown button is greyed out and I am denied access to change any "user and groups" settings)
[00:20] <Jordan_U> bytenik: Also, make sure the problem isn't as simple as there being a broken grub installation on the USB drive (and the USB drive is first in the boot order causing that broken install to be used)
[00:20] <Sonsee> tomatto_ do you want to load ISO via grub or what?
[00:20] <tomatto_> sebsebseb: i am, but i need to solve it
[00:20] <Jordan_U> bytenik: In grub legacy, yes. grub2 uses UUIDs.
[00:20] <bytenik> Jordan_U: The device in question is a cellular modem with drivers on ROM-based USB mass-storage. So it shouldn't be bootable anyway, but even if it is I have no control over the content.
[00:21] <tomatto_> Sonsee: iso or something to load livecd via grub
[00:21] <Jordan_U> tomatto_: Are you talking about a physical CD or an iso file on the hard drive?
[00:22] <DocSnyd3r> it worked! thank you
[00:22] <Sonsee> tomatto_ there is no sence doing so. Use usb stick, make it bootable and load live cd
[00:22] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: Excellent!
[00:22] <DocSnyd3r> should have tried this n hour ago
[00:22] <tomatto_> Sonsee: i prefer grub. it is possible to load via grub no isolinux?
[00:22] <tomatto_> Jordan_U: iso file
[00:23] <mayunia> hola
[00:23] <Jordan_U> tomatto_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1288604
[00:23] <bastid_raZor> tomatto_: http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1224417&page=5
[00:23] <Sonsee> tomatto_ have no experience in this one, sorry. I hope it`s possible though
[00:23] <Sonsee> )
[00:24] <bastid_raZor> tomatto_: go with Jordan_U's link.. much more to the point. mine is a bit hard to understand
[00:25] <DocSnyd3r> but another thing bugs me ;) i changed from kubuntu to xubuntu because i only have 256mb ram on my laptop which i use as mp3 player. but i only habe 6mb free and swap is already used i saw yt videos which suggested it would use a lot less ram?
[00:25] <Coded1> i think I need to file a bug report but not sure what package to cite.  it seems to be a problem with ACPI coming back from sleep any suggestions?
[00:26] <Arphetic> where can i find more info about lynix?
[00:26] <Jordan_U> Coded1: run "ubuntu-bug" and answer the prompts
[00:26] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: how much free ram did you have when you were running kubuntu?
[00:26] <Coded1> Jordan_U, ty
[00:26] <Jordan_U> Coded1: You're welcome.
[00:26] <tomatto_> Jordan_U: can i use grub1?
[00:27] <Coded1> Jordan_U, it says I must specify a PID
[00:27] <DocSnyd3r> about the same, close to nothing but xubuntu should only require 190 i read
[00:27] <{coolface}> Poof!
[00:27] <Jordan_U> tomatto_: Not easily (you would have to extract the kernel and initrd yourself since grub legacy can't read iso files).
[00:28] <Jordan_U> Coded1: The guided bug reporting is relatively new. Are you using Ubuntu 10.04?
[00:28] <Coded1> Jordan_U, yes
[00:28] <tomatto_> Jordan_U: so i can extract iso file to folder. can it help?
[00:29] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: You're only using your laptop to do one thing? There are probably some tweaks you could do.
[00:29] <DocSnyd3r> yes only as mp3 player do i get top to sort by mem usage?
[00:30] <mayunia_> hola
[00:30] <Jordan_U> Coded1: Odd, I just tried it here and with no arguments "ubuntu-bug" popped up a dialog box ("What kind of bug do you want to report...")
[00:30] <peterson> hello! I'm having trouble with wireless on my laptop. I've been using it nicely for weeks but today I can't connect to internet and when I click knetworkmanager, it says "network management disabled"
[00:30] <Coded1> Jordan_U, yup and right after is when you get the error
[00:31] <mayunia_> eapañol
[00:31] <erpingham> DocSnyd3r: In top, "?" is help. "F n <enter>" will sort by %mem.
[00:31] <tomatto_> or load isolinux via grub1.5?
[00:31] <Sonsee> i have question too) about kde
[00:32] <jacek> hi
[00:32] <Jordan_U> Coded1: Ahh, the "other" option. Looks like apport needs to add more subjects. "ubuntu-bug linux" is probably a safe bet.
[00:32] <mayunia_> 123

[00:36] <peterson> please help! I´m kind of lost around here with this network management thing..
[00:36] <Jordan_U> hey_joe: It makes more sense to start from a minimal install than to try to pair down a full install
[00:36] <Belha> hi
[00:36] <Jordan_U> !minimal | hey_joe
[00:36] <unop> hey_joe, did you read the entire factoid?
[00:36]  * hey_joe stupid enter button
[00:36] <Belha> need some help guys plz !
[00:36] <Belha> can someone help me ?
[00:37] <Sonsee> Grujah no, that is not the one. It`s like on ms windows vista and 7, If the window minimized you can look on a "small version" of it if you put mouse on it...
[00:37] <ornys> belha dont ask to ask
[00:37] <Belha> ok so my probleme is that i cant connect with ubuntu
[00:37] <xnockout> (help) does anyone know audio editor like cool edit in windows.. ??? what the name is on ubuntu?
[00:37] <hey_joe> unop, Jordan_U: yes... thank you. i had no idea there was a minimal install iso
[00:37] <Belha> cant connect to the internet
[00:37] <hey_joe> i cant user server because something in the kernel is incompatible with the box...
[00:37] <Jordan_U> hey_joe: You're welcome.
[00:37] <hey_joe> what kernel does the minimal use?
[00:37] <ornys> belha what computer do you have ?
[00:38] <Belha> toshiba
[00:38] <Grujah> Sonsee, oh, I missunderstood than. Sorry, I don't know how do do that.
[00:38] <Belha> is a new pc !
[00:38] <skippuff54> who can help with a gxine question?
[00:38] <Belha> my cart wifi is realtek 8191 !
[00:38] <ornys> belha what version of ubuntu are you trying ?
[00:38] <Belha> the newest !
[00:38] <hey_joe> whats the difference between the kernels of server/minimal/alternate-desktop?
[00:38] <Belha> ubuntu 10
[00:39] <skippuff54> hey_joe the kernels depend on the distro you are installing, not the install method like you listed
[00:39] <Belha> i can connect only when im behind a modem
[00:39] <hey_joe> skippuff54: what would cause my server install to reboot after grub then on this nokia ip330?
[00:40] <xnockout> (help) does anyone know audio editor like cool edit in windows.. ??? what the name is on ubuntu?
[00:40] <Belha> but if im home , with wifi no secured i cant connect :'(
[00:40] <ornys> belha, ubuntu 10.04or 9.10
[00:40] <Belha> 10.04
[00:40] <Belha> i also tried 9.10
[00:40] <skippuff54> hey_joe how far do you get into the installation
[00:40] <linxeh> ornys: 10.04. you'll have to upgrade to 10.04 soon anyway
[00:40] <skippuff54> anyone know anything about gxine?
[00:40] <ks3> hey_joe, skippuff54: The server install uses a different kernel configuration
[00:41] <hey_joe> server was my original choice... but according to this source > http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=printpage;topic=4595.0 > it is something to do with the server install. he suggests the kernel is the problem.
[00:41] <linxeh> maybe I misread :)
[00:41] <hey_joe> maybe the support for the platform compiled in?
[00:41] <skippuff54> hey_joe, ks3 thanks for the clarification
[00:41] <Kasm279> what driver would i install for the NVidia GeForce 6200 LE? (Kubuntu 9.10)
[00:41] <skippuff54> anyone know why gxine would crash my whole desktop after an upgrade to 10.04?
[00:42] <hey_joe> k3: how about the minimal install? is it the desktop kernel .config or the server .config?
[00:42] <vbitz> why would there be a unhandled exption that does not result in any problem
[00:42] <Belha> so ornys ?
[00:42] <amine> hey
[00:42] <xnockout> (help) does anyone know audio editor like cool edit in windows.. ??? what the name is on ubuntu?
[00:42] <vbitz> i was thinking that thay always resulted in a kernal panic
[00:42] <ks3> hey_joe: 99% sure all other install methods use the same kernel
[00:42] <skippuff54> xnockout you could try audacity
[00:42] <Belha> im now connected with windows :s need to be in ubuntu
[00:42] <amine> I am running Wubi updates, and it is asking me: Continue without installing GRUB? when attempting to install grub-pc (1.98-1ubuntu6), what should I do?
[00:42] <hey_joe> skippuff54: the installation would always finish.. however the kernel config was wrong. so it wouldn't *boot*
[00:43] <bytenik> This may be naive of me, but why can't grub just look for stage2 on the disk it was loaded from?
[00:43] <bytenik> Doesn't it know which disk's MBR invoked it?
[00:43] <btr> xnockout: btr suggests Ardour to skippfuff54
[00:43] <Belha> ornys are you there ?
[00:43] <xnockout> skippuff54, Others?? like cool edit...
[00:44] <hey_joe> ks3: one last question, what is it about the kernel config.  would it be just as thin, if i did the minimal install? i think its just the fact that the box has the amd k6 in it.. maybe server doesn't default to include support for older chips?
[00:44] <btr> typo: skippfuff54 -> xnockout
[00:44] <ornys> belha yes, check realtek website they have a linux driver
[00:44] <Jordan_U> bytenik: It does, if /boot is on the same drive as the mbr grub is installed to (but unfotunatly the drive number supplied by the BIOS is sometimes wrong with buggy BIOSs)
[00:44] <Belha> i got the driver
[00:44] <Grujah> xknockout, I agree on Audiacity
[00:44] <Belha> and i installed it
[00:44] <skippuff54> xnockout i am not familiar with cooledit, i just suggested audacity cause that is what i use. if you notic btr suggests Ardour
[00:44] <egelor> can i observe my forum account from ubuntu Server?
[00:44] <Grujah> You have Audiacity on Windows also, its the same
[00:45] <ornys> belha didnt work ?
[00:45] <bytenik> Jordan_U: Lets assume for a second my bios isn't buggy (*crosses fingers* :)... how would I tell GRUB to just look in partition X on the drive its invoked from?

[00:45] <howlymowly_> hi poeple... short question: i turned on emerald themes  with compiz but i don't know how to turn them off?
[00:46] <punto> Hi. I just updated to 10.04 and I don't have keyboard on X, only the console, how do I fix it?
[00:46] <Jordan_U> bytenik: I don't know with grub legacy. Is there a reason you don't want to upgrade to grub2? It's the default in Ubuntu and upgrading is easy.
[00:46] <pokeh> has anyone had Gnome-Do sort of crash about 15 seconds into a reboot?
[00:46] <hey_joe> i think i am just going to not minimize desktop for only the cli, and just go with the minimal install. however, there will be ethernet drivers available during install.. so does it *have* to install from internet repositories?
[00:46] <RobotCow> I am trying to set up a linux computer to receive internet from through another computer. On the computer receiving the shared internet through a crossover cable, the gui will not will not allow me to save the settings, thought I believe I have everything put in. I tried both dchp, which I can run a dhcp server, but i prefer to have the static ip info setup, and it's now allowing me to save. Why not?
[00:46] <ks3> hey_joe: You should get the same kernel with the minimal install, what you won't get is most of the packages that would be in a stock install. The server kernel differences are mainly to do with the different workload on a server - better virtualization support, no tweaks to improve desktop app responsiveness, etc.
[00:46] <hey_joe> [will not be ethernet drivers]
[00:46] <pokeh> Does anyone know how to map the "Show Desktop" function to an extra mouse button?
[00:46] <bytenik> Jordan_U: Yea, this system is a dual boot with Ubuntu just for testing but the rest of the systems are just SUSE, which doesn't have package support for grub2.
[00:47] <bytenik> Jordan_U: I'm trying to avoid having to hack together solutions for this particular project. Otherwise I'd still be on Ubuntu for the entire deployment, but sadly it lacks mono-2.6 package support.
[00:47] <jrib> pokeh: wmctrl and one of: xbindkeys, imwheel, or ccsm to configure keybindns
[00:47] <xnockout> skippuff54,grujah .. i can playing with same time on audacity.. any other suggestion?
[00:47] <Jordan_U> bytenik: Since you're using grub from SUSE you should probably ask in #suse
[00:47] <hey_joe> ks3: i wont need virtualization on the amd k6-266 :-), nor will it have a desktop. i think minimal, then i can add my daemons one at a time
[00:47] <bytenik> Jordan_U: They're all dead over there. :P
[00:47] <unop> xnockout, ardour perhaps
[00:47] <hey_joe> kinda like a gentoo install would be best. but a nice shell prompt after a cd install is always nice.
[00:48] <hey_joe> thank you guys
[00:48] <bytenik> Jordan_U: I do get your point, though I do want to try to get a general enough solution for any distribution.
[00:48] <ornys> belha, did you try the ubuntu forums if someone is having the same problem? and if it was solved? and better would be to google for the laptop model or name and the kernel version you are running, i m sorry i couldnt help you more
[00:49] <Belha> ok ornys thank you anyway man
[00:49] <Kasm279> what driver would i install for the NVidia GeForce 6200 LE? (Kubuntu 9.10)

[00:51] <CaptainTrek> !ask
[00:51] <tonyb_> Hello!
[00:52] <xnockout> dddw, what your problem?
[00:52] <dddw> I cannot right click the items on my desktop... quite annoying if you want to delete an file
[00:53] <Jordan_U> bytenik: The problem is that there aren't many people who know the internals of grub legacy very well since it no longer has any upstream, and it doesn't give very helpfull error messages most of the time (when grub2 is not able to find /boot you still have a rescue shell and can list drives / turn on debug output). If you really need to be able to boot with this USB drive in maybe you could boot with super grub2 disk.
[00:53] <yaxomoxay> dddw can you right click inside apps such as openoffice ?
[00:53] <tonyb_> So, I got drivers installed, when I run dmesg the Xbox 360 controller appears, which is awesome.  "The procedure is soooo simple, just ./config" what does that mean?
[00:53] <hey_joe> well crap, i don't have drivers available until after install, cause its a crappy hack. will the minimal install, install a base without a connection? then i can do the driver, and add repositories right?
[00:53] <xnockout> dddw, shift+del
[00:53] <hey_joe> things freakin 13mb
[00:53] <hey_joe> itsy
[00:53] <tonyb_> Hey guys, when a readme tells you to ./config what does that mean?
[00:53] <dddw> yaxomoxay, yes, it works everywhere else, only the desktop doesn´t work... it did when I installed 10.04 couple of weeks ago
[00:54] <hey_joe> tonyb_: execute the config script

[00:54] <ripdisk> i attempted a distro upgrade and didn't properly set up grub... how do i fix this? i can't boot
[00:54] <Jordan_U> hey_joe: All of the drivers that are on the LiveCD are on the minimal CD (except the Xorg drivers since there is no X)
[00:54] <ks3> hey_joe: You can use the alternate install cd

I'm currently having issues with Samba (didn't on Ubuntu 9.10; this is a fresh 10.04 install), because I currently need to modify the smb.conf file myself, and add the share. Also, it just won't cut it to add guest support (availability, browse-able, and all that), but I also have to use the "force user = " line in order for the share fold

[01:16] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: I guess not then, it's bee a while since I've booted this way.
[01:17] <wild_bat> tomatto_, make sure the filesystem.squashfs is in the <live-media-path=>
[01:17] <tomatto_> wild_bat: yes, it is
[01:17] <wild_bat> tomatto_, it is located inside the 'casper' of the iso

[01:41] <amstan> ryty: yes
[01:41] <Gnea> !info boxee
[01:41] <ryty> amstan, what model is the external device?
[01:41] <amstan> ryty: it's a 3com gigabit switch
[01:42] <Fandekasp_> Hi
[01:42] <ryty> it could also be a bad cable, have you tried another cable?
[01:42] <amstan> ryty: it works fine at gigabit speeds with my laptop and my server
[01:42] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo what daemon?
[01:42] <amstan> ryty: hmm, that could be it, it's the longest cable in the house
[01:42] <Fandekasp_> I've tried to access my external harddisk from ubuntu, but it doesn't work. Here is what I've tried : http://paste.pocoo.org/show/216435/  . What do you think I should do ?
[01:42] <ryty> ahh, gotcha
[01:42] <wild_bat> tomatto_, just drop everything else , like : kernel /boot/ubuntu.10.04.x86/casper/vmlinuz live-media-path=/boot/ubuntu.10.04.x86/casper boot=casper xforcevesa ignore_uuid
[01:42] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> Sonsee: transmission-daemon
[01:42] <ryty> may be a disconnected pair forcing it to 100 Mbps
[01:42] <ryty> or something
[01:43] <wild_bat> tomatto_, kernel /boot/ubuntu.10.04.x86/casper/vmlinuz live-media-path=/boot/ubuntu.10.04.x86/casper/ boot=casper xforcevesa ignore_uuid
[01:43] <amstan> ryty: darn
[01:43] <jlamothe> Has anyone managed to get netbook remix working with whole disk encryption?
[01:43] <laputa> anyone know why my status of  empathy automatically changes to busy, while i set my status to invisible ?
[01:43] <amstan> ok, this should be left to another day, a day when the sun is shining
[01:43] <baba_b00ie> has anyone had issues with 10.04 with flickering video ?
[01:43] <amstan> ryty: thanks for the tip
[01:43] <tomatto_> wild_bat: it is the same, isn't it?
[01:44] <[Screamo]> Anyone know why 10.04 would randomly install proprietary drivers for my vid card?
[01:44] <wild_bat> tomatto_, just try
[01:44] <funkyHat> zacktu: if you're encrypting your ~ you shouldn't use tar to backup your home dir itself, back up the encrypted dir instead
[01:45] <joaopinto> [Screamo], it doesn't no packages are installed without users requesting
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> buenas
[01:45] <baba_b00ie> [Screamo], it wasn't random, someone did it?
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> me isntale el ubuntu 10
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> ops
[01:45] <[Screamo]> lol
[01:45] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo use update-rc.d
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> hi people
[01:45] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: yeah, mine randomly flickers.  something with the gpu driver i preseume
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> i ntall the ubuntu 10
[01:45] <arpu> hello
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> and i dont know how to change the gdm theme!!
[01:45] <arpu> why OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945GM GEM 20091221 2009Q4
[01:45] <arpu> OpenGL version string: 1.4 Mesa 7.7.1
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e> all is change!
[01:45] <bl4ckc00k1e>  i come from debian lenny
[01:45] <arpu> it should opengl 2-0 ?
[01:45] <bpb> Throwing out a random question here; does anyone happen to have something like an old Acer Travelmate C110?
[01:46] <bl4ckc00k1e> but thi s ubuntu all options is change it
[01:46] <[Screamo]> baba_b00ie, i did not do it, and no one knows my password
[01:46] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, i figured it was a video drive issue to, i have a dell inspiron 1545 (intel chipset)
[01:46] <Gnea> stabu: okay, so what's boxee?
[01:46] <wild_bat> hmmm, is there a tools to install grub2 from windows?
[01:46] <bpb> I've got 9.14 running flawlessly on it, but upgrading to 10.04 throws an error upon trying to boot up.
[01:46] <stabu> kinda like xbmc
[01:47] <zacktu> funkyhat: there's /home/zack and /home/.ecryptfs/zack.  Is the latter what I should back up?
[01:47] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: same same - the 4500 set
[01:47] <funkyHat> zacktu: yep
[01:47] <funkyHat> zacktu: otherwise you're defeating the object of the encryption ⢁)
[01:47] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, i'll have to check.
[01:48] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: triple booting with win7 and osx.  win7 no problems.  The osx hackintosh didn't enable high level graphics.
[01:48] <funkyHat> zacktu: and possibly other stuff from /home/.ecryptfs
[01:48] <funkyHat> zacktu: your key might not be inside /home/.ecryptfs/zack
[01:49] <tomatto_> wild_bat: it end on message:  Please provide a name for this Disc, such as 'Debian ...'
[01:49] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, lspci gives me a intel mobil 4 series chipset. not sure exactly what i'm running. i'd have to look further in to it.
[01:49] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> the update-rc.d transmission-daemon defaults deal didn't work. still not coming up on system boot.
[01:49] <greezmunkey> funkyHat: Here's a "stupid" question...What about compression of an excrypted volume on backup, is that an issue?
[01:50] <funkyHat> greezmunkey: it might be
[01:50] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: we've got the same machine specs.
[01:50] <greezmunkey> funkyHat: that's what I'm thinking...I'll look into that.
[01:50] <baba_b00ie> ah, well unless one of us did some upgrades hehe
[01:50] <funkyHat> greezmunkey: I tend not to like compressing my backups anyway
[01:51] <brax> How can I unmount my flash drive?
[01:51] <Guest86692> what's the url to fix the reversed toolbar buttons?
[01:51] <funkyHat> brax: go to Places > computer and right click on the icon for the flash drive
[01:51] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: i've got buyer's remorse with this particular purchase.  but all things considered, it could have been worse.  Nice thing is I can always boot one of the others OS's.  Should have waited for one of the new "I" series computers
[01:51] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, another thing i noticed is how the wm response to window focus. you havce to hit title bar vs anywere within the window. ubuntu/gnome never did that before 10.04
[01:52] <craigbass1976> !flash
[01:52] <wild_bat> tomatto_, hmmm i have never come to this, this is what i use on grub4dos http://pastebin.com/Fiqu5Phg may be you should just boot the iso image?
[01:52] <Smeh> so.. anyone able to assist with an xwindows / gnome issue in 10.04. I have an integrated intel 4 series graphics controller (revision 03) and startx just pops straight to a blank screen
[01:52] <Cynthia> !buttons | Guest86692
[01:52] <Smeh> nothing in logs
[01:52] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: with Ubuntu Tweak u can modify window behavior to a fair degree.
[01:52] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, the only thing that gives me buyers remorse with this machine is the trackpad is the worst i've ever used. even older beat up dells work better/accouratly than this
[01:52] <Cynthia> Err - ignore what I said Guest86692
[01:53] <Guest86692> done
[01:53] <tomatto_> wild_bat: why do you use grub4dos, but no holy grub?
[01:53] <baba_b00ie> acerimmer, yeah true, i just tweak gnome out with gconf-editor manually mostly
[01:53] <craigbass1976> I've got 64 bit Lucid.  Does this still apply?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#x86_64
[01:53] <acerimmer> baba_b00ie: live and learn.  *whisper* I do like the mac powerboosk, but can't quite convince myself to spend the $ to get one.
[01:53] <Cynthia> !controls | Guest86692
[01:53] <Cynthia> :)
[01:53] <Guest86692> thanks
[01:53] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: grub2 runs fine in cygwin
[01:53] <wild_bat> tomatto_, my usb is ntfs
[01:53] <zacktu> funkyhat: I would be content to have the backup to my NAS not be encrypted.  Guess I think of encryption as protection in case I lose my laptop away from home.   Maybe I should read more about what I've gotten into by agreeing to encryption of /home when I installed Lucid.
[01:54] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: And there must be a way to install it without cygwin as well, since wubi does.
[01:54] <courtni> hello how do you make an unexecutible bit executible. i went to the website but thhe instructions are unclear (i'm trying to play flyff)
[01:54] <tomatto_> wild_bat: i see.
[01:54] <Sensiva> Hello I have upgraded from Karmic to Lucid and now desktop theme looks like in this shot http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/5513/screenshothh.jpg any ideas how to fix that?
[01:54] <tomatto_> wild_bat: what is in your directory /bootimg/ubuntu.10.4.x86/ ?
[01:55] <funkyHat> zacktu: ah I see.  As far as compressing live data vs. encrypted data, it is treated the same. I also found backup programs that can encrypt the backup itself, wether it was encrypted to start with or not!
[01:56] <Sensiva> Cynthia thank you
[01:56] <Jordan_U> Sensiva: Looks like the dust theme (System > Preferences > Appearance) with the window controlls on the right.
[01:56] <wild_bat> tomatto_, the vmlinuz , initrd.lz , and the filesystem.squashfs
[01:56] <Sensiva> Jordan_U When I choose Dust theme X crashes
[01:56] <RedWar> Is there a hardware channel on IRC? for those that do computer repairs?
[01:56] <RedWar> Sorry I nowthis is not a UBuntu topic
[01:57] <Sensiva> Cynthia Did you notice xchat's menu bar colors?
[01:57] <Jordan_U> RedWar: ##hardware
[01:57] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo, if you don`t want to understand, just do this: sudo nano /etc/rc.local and write there sudo $user transmission-daemon
[01:57] <Cynthia> Sensiva: Not until you just mentioned it :)
[01:57] <tomatto_> wild_bat: great
[01:57] <Smeh> so.. anyone able to assist with an xwindows / gnome issue in 10.04. I have an integrated intel 4 series graphics controller (revision 03) and startx just pops straight to a blank screen and the machine *seems* to(but may not actually) freeze completely. nothing in Xorg logs or syslog...
[01:57] <RedWar> Thanks Jordan_U
[01:57] <Jordan_U> RedWar: You're welcome.
[01:57] <zacktu> funkyhat: The command is "sudo tar cvzf ...".  I added sudo after an earlier attempt generated errors, but still have them.
[01:57] <tomatto_> wild_bat: can i disable gnome loading?
[01:57] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, hmmm ~ i will be nice to have one w/o cygwin (pain >.<) ~ for making the boot usb ;p ~
[01:58] <zacktu> funkyhat: and not a cron
[01:58] <greezmunkey> Smeh: is it in that state now?
[01:58] <mistergibson> Any network-manager (OpenVPN) experts in da house? ... having odd issue - need help w/ config import
[01:58] <wild_bat> tomatto_, huh ? why you wanna do so? boot with 'single' kernel option then
[01:58] <funkyHat> zacktu: can you pastebin the output so I can see the errors in full?
[01:59] <Smeh> Greezmunkey : no, but i can get it there in no time at all..
[01:59] <Typos_King> Smeh:    thought yet about giving it a -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg;  ? in 'recovery' mode
[01:59] <greezmunkey> Smeh: press ctrl+alt+F2 - see if it takes you to a text based login.
[01:59] <funkyHat> greezmunkey: I would imagine encrypting a text file has an effect on how well it can be compressed though... but then I think encryption routines often perform compression as a matter of course
[02:00] <Smeh> what is "recovery" mode? i'm already in a text based login. I don't even know if this is normal, however, i'm using the "alternate" iso, and it doesn't start with an Xorg gui.. it boots to a text login
[02:00] <funkyHat> greezmunkey: this conversation is getting a bit off topic though ⢁)
[02:00] <tomatto_> wild_bat: because viewed mismash on the screen instead of gnome
[02:00] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: If you want to create a boot USB for booting iso files you can use any dd like tool to copy super grub2 disk to a USB drive. It contains a script that will detect loop bootable isos (at boot time) in /boot-isos/ and make menu entries for them.
[02:00] <zacktu> funkyhat: Don't have the output right now.  If you're going to be here a while, I'll try it again.
[02:00] <greezmunkey> funkyHat: agreed.
[02:00] <funkyHat> Smeh: recovery mode is single user mode, less services are started etc.
[02:00] <wild_bat> tomatto_, may be you should use alternate cd for install then~
[02:00] <Smeh> I see
[02:00] <funkyHat> zacktu: I'm always here, I won't necessarily reply very promptly though
[02:01] <johni> I have two monitors and after the upgrade to 10.4 new windows do not open anymore on the screen with the mouse pointer. Can somebody please help me find the problem?
[02:01] <tomatto_> wild_bat: from this, it works before
[02:01] <Typos_King> Smeh:    the 'text' login screen will be the 'recovery' mode :) then, so try it there, it seems like something went off on that install, did it ever work? did you do an upgrade rather than a full install?
[02:01] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: Of course, the downside being that you loose whatever is on the flash drive currently (unless you do some hackery with the partition table)
[02:01] <Loshki> Is there a better way to view console output? I've been keeping a terminal window open and running xtail on the log files...
[02:01] <thunder_star>  /msg NickServ identify wiccan
[02:02] <Sonsee> thunder_star )))
[02:02] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, i know ~ but a pc w/o linux or cygwin ~ can't do it ~ so burnning cd is a must :<
[02:02] <Loshki> thunder_star: oops...
[02:02] <greezmunkey> Loshki: System>Admin>Log File Viewer?
[02:02] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: There are tools for windows that will let you copy a drive image to a USB drive.
[02:02] <Loshki> greezmunkey: any idea what app that actually runs?
[02:03] <Typos_King> Loshki:   you can always just use the terminal window and use -> tail -f FILE;    -f does a 'follow' up whenever the file changes
[02:03] <greezmunkey> Loshki: hmm, I could look...Do you have that on your system?
[02:03] <Smeh> Typos_King : right, well.. xwindows has never worked, no. and this is a completely fresh install of 10.04 LTS Alternate.
[02:03] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, hmm ~ should be let me search ^^ thanks
[02:03] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: You're welcome.
[02:03] <mthorn_> Hi. I just installed Lucid on an msi xslim. The webcam did not work, and a thread on the ubuntu forums said that I needed to compile the uvc driver. This step was written I believe for Jaunty, and the lucid kernel now includes this driver. the driver was NOT loaded. I have now loaded the driver, but there is still no new device in /dev
[02:03] <courtni> HELLO can any one answer my question?
[02:03] <courtni> um
[02:03] <mthorn_> do I need to do something to initialize the driver or something?
[02:04] <Loshki> greezmunkey: I have (or can get) all the apps but I don't run gnome so I'm not sure what System>Admin>Log File Viewer will actually run...
[02:04] <Typos_King> Smeh:    seems as if it has lack of drivers for your videocard :|
[02:04] <greezmunkey> courtni: Ask about every ten to fiveteen minutes until someone takes it up, what's wrong?
[02:04] <Cynthia> courtni: Your question was lost in a sea of replies. You will have to repeat it every so often (but not too often)
[02:04] <greezmunkey> Loshki: I'll look here...
[02:05] <Loshki> Typos_King: I used to use something else back in the day, on Solaris. It used to open and beep when there was message and was configurable I think. So I wondered if there was a ubuntu app...
[02:05] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: http://prdownload.berlios.de/supergrub/super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso (don't let the .iso confuse you, it can be used as an iso, floppy, or drive image)
[02:05] <delia_> Yo
[02:05] <Smeh> lspsi | grep VGA reports "Intel Corporation 4 series Chipset Integrated Graphics controller (Rev 03) and greezmunkey : ctrl-alt-f2 etc does nothing.. no keyboard input does anything after trying startx.
[02:06] <courtni> i wanted to donwload this online game but it reads as"unexecutable bit" the url is:http://flyff.gpotato.com/?m=game&a=download ( if that helps)
[02:06] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> ugh. it says it's stopping transmission-daemon whenever i reboot the system, BUT while the system is running i can't use the service it offers.
[02:06] <Loshki> courtni: you could try chmod +x <filename>
[02:06] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, wow thanks
[02:07] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: You're welcome.
[02:07] <Loshki> greezmunkey: thanks, appreciate it
[02:07] <Loshki> courtni: on second thoughts, it looks like a windows executable. You *might* be able to run it under wine, but not otherwise...
[02:07] <greezmunkey> Loshki: It's called: gnome-system-log, you may be able to get that on its own, I donno though.
[02:08] <courtni> kk ill try t
[02:08] <Loshki> greezmunkey: that works, thanks...
[02:08] <courtni> thnx
[02:08] <greezmunkey> Loshki: :0
[02:09] <Agu10> hi
[02:10] <greezmunkey> Hawaiian_Eskimo: did you get Openswan going?
[02:10] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> greezmunkey: used poptop instead
[02:11] <Agu10> hi
[02:11] <Agu10> how can I make compiz be disabled every time I boot ubuntu?
[02:11] <greezmunkey> Hawaiian_Eskimo: nice.
[02:11] <xangua> Agu10: system> preferences> appearence> effects
[02:11] <Smeh> is there any way to make Xorg boot in something like safe mode using some kind of standard vesa / vga driver?
[02:11] <Izinucs> Agu10: set effect to "none"
[02:11] <Agu10> so that I can enable compiz if I want, using a launcher, but then have it disabled every time I turn ubuntu off
[02:11] <EmLeX> hey is it any program's that will alow u to lock down ubuntu if a usb pendrive is removed and unlocked when it's inserted agen?
[02:11] <Agu10> xangua, Izinucs ^^
[02:12] <greezmunkey> Hawaiian_Eskimo: Heh, PPTP.
[02:12] <Izinucs> Agu10: same location.. no launcher available that I know of
[02:12] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> greezmunkey: and? it works, dun it? :P
[02:12] <Agu10> ok, but it will be disabled when I turn my computer ON ?
[02:12] <Agu10> even if I enabled it ?
[02:13] <Agu10> I want that
[02:13] <peter_aaron> Complex question. Had Ubuntu 9.10 installed and installed Windows 7. Trying to restore Grub but the live CD I'm using right now can't find the boot files from the old File System.
[02:13] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo, what is max speed of pptpd over the internet?
[02:13] <greezmunkey> Hawaiian_Eskimo: excellent, that's all :)
[02:13] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo, *you have
[02:13] <Izinucs> Agu10: if you disable before shutting down then it will be disabled on boot
[02:14] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> Sonsee: like 768kbps. blame my crappy internet.
[02:14] <Loshki> peter_aaron: stupid question: you *are* using the 9.10 live cd, and it's grub2, right?
[02:14] <Agu10> Izinucs: ok, but I HAVE TO disable it every time I shut down?
[02:14] <Agu10> I can make a script, but if it doesnt execute for some reason....
[02:15] <peter_aaron> Yeah grub2. Sorry I'm fairly new to ubuntu
[02:15] <Sonsee> Hawaiian_Eskimo, ok. can you give the pptp-options?) if that`s alright... in private
[02:15] <SuperLag> is the default highlight then middle-click behavior for copy / paste disabled in Lucid??
[02:15] <Loshki> !grub2 | peter_aaron: so you're using this?
[02:15] <Izinucs> Agu10: yes if you want it disabled on boot
[02:15] <z3r0-c001> what is private browsing and how does it work
[02:15] <greezmunkey> Sonsee: I would think it would run at the slowest speed that the wan connection is running at (at the time)
[02:16] <Izinucs> z3r0-c001: it doesn't record teh history of where you go
[02:16] <Agu10> Izinucs, ok, thanks
[02:16] <tt5786> hey guys i am trying to upgrade my pc from 9.10 to 10.4 via VNC client of windows can this be done
[02:16] <z3r0-c001> thnx
[02:16] <Agu10> Izinucs, is there a way to automatically detect if my hardware suppors compiz before running it??
[02:16] <SuperLag> tt5786: do you have a VNC server running on your Ubuntu machine?
[02:16] <tdhz77> Does anybody know if you can resize an OSX partition so that the Ubuntu partition has more space?
[02:16] <tt5786> i am doing it via remote desktop
[02:17] <Agu10> Izinucs, because I'm running it in a virtual machine, and it's sometimes where I can't have 3d
[02:17] <rsouthard> tt5786:yes. you should be able to do it just like you are sitting at the pc. Make sure you have the vnc client running.
[02:17] <z3r0-c001> is there away for me to make it so my system requires my password to make online downloads and uploads not just packages and updates within the system
[02:18] <tt5786> ok i do and i get the following error "Cant download the release notes. Check your internet connection
[02:18] <SpamapS> has anyone managed to get vmware tools to install properly after upgrading to maverick?
[02:18] <Loshki> tt5786: I've seen people claim you can upgrade via an ssh connection, but I dunno about vnc. Upgrades can (and do) go wrong. Make sure you have some kind of backup/recovery plan in case it all goes horribly wrong...
[02:18] <SpamapS> Searching for a valid kernel header path...
[02:18] <SpamapS> The path "" is not valid.
[02:18] <greezmunkey> tt5786: I think you are looking at a proxy server function there...maybe squid?
[02:18] <SpamapS> getting that in vmware-config-tools.pl
[02:18] <tt5786> ihmm
[02:19] <tt5786> is there a manual way to do it then
[02:19] <wild_bat> LOL~ after dd the super grub2 ubuntu can't mount  XD
[02:20] <z3r0-c001> is there away for me to make it so my system requires my password to make online downloads and uploads not just packages and updates within the system
[02:20] <Sonsee> greezmunkey, why use the squid? if can just make ssh tunnel?
[02:20] <Loshki> tt5786: most people to an upgrade sitting at the console. It can still go wrong, so you still need to do a backup first, unless you like to live dangerously...
[02:21] <tt5786> i have every thing backed up
[02:21] <tt5786> well i will go to the actual computer to do it tonight thanks guys
[02:21] <Loshki> z3r0-c001: I agree with greezmunkey. You'd need to use a firewall to block all access except via a proxy and then configure the proxy to require authentication. Obviously it's not for beginners...
[02:22] <greezmunkey> Sonsee: There are other ways to do it, but they are squid based (apparantly) :p
[02:22] <greezmunkey> Sonsee: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-security-4/password-protect-internet-access-218503/
[02:22] <MACscr_lappy> lol, i used to be able to do service gdm stop so i can work on xorg stuff from ssh, but now it seems to reboot the server. Any ideas?
[02:22] <eleazar> is there a way to hide evolution in lucid's messaging menu?
[02:22] <z3r0-c001> hmmm how does mac acomplish this act
[02:23] <tdhz77> Will information regarding apple partition schemes be outdated from the forum if it was written in 2005?
[02:23] <z3r0-c001> can it be done threw the firefox browser
[02:24] <__taco> I had removed all the ppp packages, so what application should instead ?
[02:25] <Loshki> z3r0-c001: check out greezmunkey's link above...
[02:25] <greezmunkey> z3r0-c001: you can limit network access using groups, are you planning to leave your system console open, unlocked?
[02:25] <corpse> I am trying to install ubuntu server onto another machine. no matter what i do i can not get it to boot. I used unetboot to put it on both a usb stick and  external hard drive. and i have burned 3 disks. i have redownloaded  the iso and the bios configs are set up properly
[02:25] <suzyq19056> hi
[02:25] <__taco> __taco: I had removed all the ppp packages, so what application should instead ? I can't connect ADSL any more, how I should do?
[02:26] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: The msdos partition has no filesystem, it's just there so that operating systems don't try to write to that part of the drive and clobber it.
[02:26] <Loshki> corpse: you're saying the live cd won't boot, or that after installing, the new system won't boot?
[02:26] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: It being supergrub
[02:26] <Sonsee> __taco, why did you remove it?
[02:27] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, hehe ~ never try th super grub be4 XD , its grub 2 have lua support ^^ nice ~
[02:27] <greezmunkey> corpse: do you have sound where you are now?
[02:28] <fcorredor> hello bng/s
[02:28] <z3r0-c001> greezmunkey no just a securety junkie
[02:28] <tdhz77> Is there an ubuntu channel aimed at apple users?
[02:28] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: If you manually mount /dev/sdb rather than /dev/sdb1 (or whatever your USB drive is called) you can access the iso filesystem. Obviously linux doesn't expect to find an iso filesystem on a USB drive, but if you point it to it then it will mount it without complaint :)
[02:28] <__taco> Sonsee: it saied rp-pppoe plugin version 3.8p compiled against pppd 2.4.5 when I try to use pppoeconfg to connect ADSL
[02:29] <fcorredor> can anyone help with a ubuntu/winxp question/prob?
[02:29] <sebsebseb> !ask | fcorredor
[02:29] <greezmunkey> z3r0-c001: wiht certain access routers that will run dd-wrt, dd-wrt has the ability to create an Internet portal. It may be possible to add password protection there - you could check that out if you wish.
[02:30] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, hehe ~ trying to export the "super" out to a regular ntfs + grub2 now ~^^
[02:30] <__taco> Sonsee:I want to reinstall that, but I don't know what packages I should install
[02:30] <corpse> Loshki: sorry for the delay, im saying it will not boot to live
[02:30] <HowardTheDuck> hey, does ubuntu 64 have problems with sata 6.0
[02:30] <Loshki> tdhz77: I see #ubuntu-mactel (Ubuntu on Intel Macs) but there are only 3 users :-)
[02:30] <corpse> greezmunkey: yes i have sound
[02:30] <tdhz77> Thank you Loshki.
[02:31] <HowardTheDuck> whenever i do a cold boot, it doesn't recognize my hd, says for me to instert system disk and hit enter.  but when i ctrl-alt-del after that, grub loads right up
[02:31] <greezmunkey> corpse: You can check this, watch the whole thing though: http://www.vtc.com/products/UbuntuLinux/BootingLiveCD/59896
[02:31] <z3r0-c001> thnx
[02:31] <fcorredor> after installing ubuntu...winxp cant see the drive its installed to....the bios can....but doublecliking on mycomputer can not see it???...why??...any workarounds/fixes for this?
[02:31] <Loshki> greezmunkey: wow, you have great links...
[02:31] <ryty> so I understand the whole "stable" versus "beta" thing, but why are people still using the nspluginwrapper for 64-bit linux flash?
[02:32] <ryty> Adobe now has a beta plugin
[02:32] <ryty> for 64-bit native
[02:32] <greezmunkey> Loshki: #ubuntu will intensify and concentrate your google-fu :)
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> fcorredor:  you mean xp cant see the drive that Linux is installed to>
[02:32] <Sonsee> ryty, it works better on old hardware
[02:32] <fcorredor> yep
[02:32] <__taco> hey,any one can help me?
[02:32] <Loshki> greezmunkey: Yes it will :-)
[02:32] <greezmunkey> Loshki: keeping a "scratch" file handy helps too.
[02:32] <ryty> gotcha, I installed Adobe's, works better on my newer hardware
[02:32] <corpse> greezmunkey: thanks for the link. i couldnt belive it would be the ISO is not bootable. but i just tryed my external HD on my other pc and it would not boot up there either
[02:32] <ryty> go figure
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> fcorredor:  windows dosent know what to do with a linux filesystem - so that is sort of normal for xp to ignore it.
[02:33] <herdivet> connect gtk+
[02:33] <corpse> nor would the disks
[02:33] <greezmunkey> corpse: what .iso?
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> fcorredor:  only thingk it would be doing is asking to 'format' the filesystem if you did see/double click on it.
[02:34] <corpse> greezmunkey: ubuntu-10.04-server-amd64
[02:34] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, do you know if the grub2 come with ubuntu got lua aupport?
[02:34] <Loshki> corpse: the iso should be bootable when burnt correctly to cd/dvd using 'image' mode...
[02:34] <Sonsee> ryty, on newer yes, I think. but on old 32 bit systems
[02:34] <yaxomoxay> anyone installed 10.04 on a VM ?
[02:34] <Sonsee> ryty, so maybe people just used to )))
[02:34] <Sonsee> ryty, don`t know why)
[02:34] <greezmunkey> corpse: here's the md5sum for it, you may consider checking yours: 8ee25c78f4c66610b6872a05ee9ad81b *ubuntu-10.04-server-amd64.iso
[02:34] <Dr_Willis> yaxomoxay:  ive installed it to virtualbox befor. Yes.
[02:34] <corpse> Loshki: yep thats what i did loshki. im also extracting it to usb and eternal hd and it will not boot from those either
[02:34] <fcorredor> ok...tx Dr_Willis....no other way to make xp recognize or read ext2 or ext3 file systems?
[02:34] <yaxomoxay> Dr_Willis, was it a 10.04 ?
[02:34] <yaxomoxay> final?
[02:35] <Loshki> yaxomoxay: I installed it into vmware workstation to play with it
[02:35] <Dr_Willis> fcorredor:  thers are tools for xp for ext2/3  but not ext4
[02:35] <Dr_Willis> !ext3 | fcorredor
[02:35] <nwillems> Hi, I'm trying to make a command, and wondered how I would get the result from one command to the next, like this "ls -l | grep john | echo "fancyformat"+$var$" what should i put insted of $var$?
[02:35] <Loshki> corpse: something unusual about your hardware/bios? So what *does* happen when you try and boot?
[02:35] <Sonsee> ubottu 4 by default ?)
[02:36] <histo> Why is the 10.04 us splash really low res when installed to the hard drive?  If I boot 10.04 from a usb stick its a high res splash on the same hardware.
[02:36] <yaxomoxay> Loshki, ok I get an installer error at the end. Host is 10.04 64 bit, guest is 10.04 32 bit. Curiously someone is getting the same problem using Wubi (Bug 575568)
[02:36] <Jordan_U> wild_bat: No, unfortunately. I'm trying to get it included though (I fixed the main 'bug' originally holding it back)
[02:36] <nwillems> histo: is it maybee your grub thats not configured to take advantage of your screen?
[02:36] <Dr_Willis> nwillems:  you may want to check out the advanced bash scripting guide.  One way is to use backticks or the $() syntax.
[02:36] <zeek_> anyone have issues with mounting an sdcard from a built in slot on a netbook
[02:36] <fcorredor> tks a lot
[02:36] <yaxomoxay> is there a way to keep the logs of the installation?
[02:36] <wild_bat> Jordan_U, yay~!
[02:36] <corpse> Sonsee: i get NTLDR missing . and i am booting from removable media/cdrom first
[02:37] <nwillems> Dr_Willis: thanks, will look into that
[02:37] <corpse> sorry sonsee wrong name
[02:37] <Flannel> yaxomoxay: Those logs should be in /var/log/installer/
[02:37] <Dr_Willis> zeek_:  depending on the netbook. it can be an issue.  My AA0 has 2 SD slots. one works.. other only works if a card is in it at boot time.
[02:37] <zeek_> i see it being recognized in dmesg and lsusb
[02:37] <jiohdi> I had some sort of 10.4 meltdown... got a msg saying gnome-power-manager default incorrectly installed, see your administrator... and then it would not let me log in, just kept coming back to the login
[02:37] <corpse> Loshki:  i get NTLDR missing . and i am booting from removable media/cdrom first
[02:37] <jiohdi> any ideas?
[02:38] <yaxomoxay> Flannel: so if I start up using live and i go to /var/log/installer I get the logs of the failed installation ?
[02:38] <zeek_> this is it right here Bus 001 Device 010: ID 0cf2:6250 ENE Technology, Inc.
[02:38] <Flannel> yaxomoxay: /media/mount-whatever/var/log/installer/ yeah
[02:38] <zeek_> [ 4978.004151] usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9
[02:38] <yaxomoxay> Flannel, ok, I'll check 'em out
[02:39] <Loshki> corpse: NTLDR? Is there a windows partition on the hard drive, then?
[02:39] <corpse> Loshki:  I am setting up a fileserver. i have 6 HDD in the system right now. most of wich are windows partitions
[02:39] <PDG1> I recently acquired a new PC... i'm not sure if it had a DVD/ CD writer in it... any way to check from terminal?
[02:40] <__taco> any one has a problem about "rp-pppoe plugin version 3.8p compiled against pppd 2.4.5" ?
[02:40] <Loshki> corpse: there's usually no NTLDR involvement when booting a live cd. Sounds to me like your bios is confused and trying to boot from the wrong place (just guessing)...
[02:41] <greezmunkey> zeek_: I agree with Dr_Willis , but you may find with lspci, lshw, or lsusb that your sd reader is a richo unit. If so look here: http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&q=sdricoh_cs&btnG=Search
[02:41] <corpse> thats what i seems like to me. its not just detecting the cds or removable drives as bootable so it moves on to the other disks
[02:41] <tdhz77> What's the best way I can backup my current ubuntu partition?
[02:43] <tdhz77> I wish EXT4 was supported by my mac osx. It would make my life easier.
[02:43] <bastid_raZor> !backup | tdhz77
[02:44] <histo> tdhz77: clonezilla is nice
[02:44] <histo> tdhz77: it basically performs a dd of your parition and you can even compress the image.
[02:45] <head_victim_lapy> I don't know the correct place to advise anyone of this but going to the ubuntu shop from the official page is giving an expired certificate error for shop.canonical.com I figure someone in here should at least be able to pass that information on to the relevant people.
[02:45] <tdhz77> histo, I'm backing up my osx partition using disk utility, which puts everything in a *.dmg file. Clonezilla has a smiliar function?
[02:45] <histo> tdhz77: correct
[02:46] <histo> tdhz77: Its similiar to norton ghost if you've ever used that.
[02:46] <Loshki> corpse: do you other bootable media you can try, to tell if it's the cd itself or the boot process?
[02:46] <greezmunkey> tdhz77: are you planning to change your format type from ext4 to ext3 or something?
[02:47] <tdhz77> greezmunkey, yes sir. I want to be able to share data between ubuntu and osx. (I would dump OSX, but Starcraft 2 just came up, so I want access to my music)
[02:47] <histo> nwillems: I double check the grub.cfg but I dont' think there is a difference both fresh installs of grub.cfg
[02:47] <histo> nwillems: sry both fresh installs of grub2
[02:47] <jono> anyone know the keybinding to access the indicator applets?
[02:47] <Loshki> tdhz77: a good reason to avoid ext4 if ever I heard one. You aren't *required* to use ext4 for Ubuntu...
[02:49] <greezmunkey> Loshki: and Group: If he uses a derivitive of dd to backup his volume, will that image then be compatible with ext3 having been created from ext4???
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  ext4 has some 'limited' backwards compatiablity with ext3. and can in some cases be mounted as a ext3 filesystem.
[02:50] <greezmunkey> Or - is the data dump filesystem / format independant?
[02:50] <tdhz77> Can I create a ext3 partition to share data between OSX and Ubuntu? So, I can continue using ext4?
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  a dd dump to a file still has the filesystem of the actual data
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> tdhz77:  you could - if you got the space somewhere.
[02:51] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: that's what I thought, so that is not a solution for tdhz77.
[02:51] <sebsebseb> jono: Your asking for help in here, interesting :)
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  from what im reading at the ext4 wiki -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4
[02:51] <Loshki> greezmunkey: I seriously doubt you can dd an ext4 filesystem contents and restore it to ext3. It would work with tar though I would think, but you'd have to do a separate grub restore...
[02:51] <jono> sebsebseb, we all need help :)
[02:51] <__taco> whether there is a tool with gui use to connect ADSL?
[02:51] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: filesystem, or hard drive formatting - that was my question.
[02:52] <nwillems> histo: If grub isn't configured to take advantage of your screenresolution it won't.
[02:52] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: checking that link, thanks.
[02:52] <Loshki> __taco: what does your ISP require?
[02:52] <__taco> whether there is a tool with gui use for connect ADSL?
[02:52] <nwillems> histo: far as I remember its a parameter called vga
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  what was the originbal q? You format a partition with a filesystem. Not a hard drive. (technically i thinkthats right)
[02:52] <histo> nwillems: that was old vga codes but this is a fresh install on harddisk behaving differently than one installed on usb.
[02:53] <tdhz77> I keep reading about sync errors when using gparted, but im using reffit not bootcamp, so gparted seems like my only option. I just want OSX for SC2 and I want the other 450Gigs for ubuntu :)
[02:53]  * Dr_Willis wonders if SC2 will work in wine.
[02:53] <nwillems> histo: sure the people making the image for your usb-stick can do magic grub foo to make it use max-res, but when freshly installed it dosen't do the magic
[02:54] <wolter> can I make nautilus opaque back again?
[02:54] <__taco> there is a problem of my pppoecnfig whit "rp-pppoe plugin version 3.8p compiled against pppd 2.4.5" , so I remove all the packages of ppp. now I don't know how to connect my network again.
[02:54] <Loshki> Dr_Willis: yes, that's right. The disk contains partitions, each partition contains a filesystem, the filesystems have varying formats...
[02:54] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: the original question was: If tdhz77 (who wants to convert from ext4 to ext3) uses dd to image his filesystem, be able to put the data onto an ext3 formatted partition. Seeing that it was originally ext4 when the dd was done.
[02:54] <eugene_> i connect my chat account on lucid into Ubuntu server.
[02:54] <histo> nwillems: It's the same image.
[02:54] <__taco> Loshki: there is a problem of my pppoecnfig whit "rp-pppoe plugin version 3.8p compiled against pppd 2.4.5" , so I remove all the packages of ppp. now I don't know how to connect my network again.
[02:54] <histo> nwillems: I don't think you understand what i'm saying.
[02:54] <eugene_> how this works?
[02:54] <Loshki> greezmunkey: and the answer is NO, not with dd...
[02:54] <nwillems> histo: No I didn't catch the exact same image part. Sry. But have you tried the vga code?
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  that wont work.
[02:55] <cjav> hi, I'm trying to use port forwarding with libvirt in an ubuntu karmic host, but the rules inserted by libvirt on the FORWARD chain are preventing me to do this, could someone advise me on what to do about it?
[02:55] <histo> nwillems: its not a vga code issue
[02:55] <__taco> Loshki., there?
[02:56] <nwillems> histo: All right, then I'm outta luck. Just thought about that immediatly when you wrote
[02:56] <greezmunkey> Loshki: There you go, so dd or a backup derivitive based on it is not what tdhz77 needs to back up his filesystem. So then what?
[02:57] <Loshki> __taco: if your ISP requires pppoe, you need to download and install a pppoe package. Obviously you can't do that if your network is down, you'll have to do it some other way...
[02:57] <greezmunkey> Sorry to beat this into the ground, but it is kind of important, at least it is to me.
[02:57] <Loshki> greezmunkey: I think tar would work...
[02:57] <tdhz77> Could I create a new ext3 partition?
[02:58] <__taco> Loshki, the problem is that I don't know what packages I should download and install.
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  if he wants to restore to a diffrent filesystem.. then no thats not a good tool. Other backup tools can restore to differnt filesystems
[02:58] <greezmunkey> Loshki: right, just to capture the data itself. Isn't tar kind of a filesystem format of its own, independant of HDD formatting.
[02:58] <Loshki> tdhz77: if you have enough space, absolutely you can create a new ext3 partition, and you can copy files from the ext4 partition to the ext3 partition using 'cp -a'. It won't copy an MBR though
[02:59] <wildbat> how  i  change tty to higher resolution?
[02:59] <mataks> how to add ppa ?
[02:59] <tdhz77> I have plenty of space. MBR is the apple specifc file system?
[02:59] <Loshki> greezmunkey: yes, tar format is an independent format, unrelated to the filesystem format, which is why you can create a tarfile from an ext4 system and restore it to an ext3 system...
[02:59] <xangua> mataks: sudo add-apt-repository "ppa's name"
[02:59] <__taco> Loshki, when i try to open ppp that down load form ubuntu official web site, it says I can't open it.
[03:00] <Loshki> tdhz77: MBR is the master boot record, you need it when booting ubuntu via grub.
[03:00] <greezmunkey> Loshki: whew, That's all good info - good to have striaght anyways. :)
[03:00] <tdhz77> Ok, now I remember.
[03:00] <Loshki> __taco: what url are you trying to access?
[03:01] <__taco> Loshki, can you tell me how to install it in DVD cdrom?
[03:01] <mataks> xangua, ok thnx man
[03:01] <Cajun> Has anyone else noticed the "time slider" in Rhythm Box not working?
[03:03] <greezmunkey> aka patch cord guy, hehe
[03:03] <Loshki> __taco: I'm not sure about installing from dvd. Can't you install it from http://packages.ubuntu.com ?
[03:03] <__taco> Loshki , i down load it from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/ppp
[03:04] <PDG1> oookay... so I did a little more searching here and found the lshw command, but I looked at the man page and i can't figure out what any of it means. I'm trying to find out if the Computer i bought has a DVD/CD writer or if it's read only or if it's not working because it's broken.
[03:04] <jing> okay i back again find out how install ubuntu mini on hard disk please
[03:04] <Loshki> __taco: ok, so how will you load it onto your machine which has no network?
[03:05] <__taco> Loshki, all the packages seems demaged
[03:05] <__taco> I got it in Windows XP
[03:05] <jing> either that or how keep lxde and remove gnome all together?
[03:05] <tdhz77> Thanks for the help. To change from the ext4 to ext3 - I will need to compress my data into a tar file. Reinstall ubuntu to ext3, then uncompress the data when I'm done.
[03:05] <Loshki> PDG1: so having run lshw, do you now know the model number of your writer?
[03:05] <Loshki> __taco: damaged in what way?
[03:05] <PDG1> Loshki, GOOD IDEA :D
[03:06] <greezmunkey> PDG1: lshw will tell you that, so will dmesg. lshw is easier to read though. Example: description: CD-R/CD-RW writer
[03:06] <__taco> Loshki, I got it in windows xp
[03:06] <slavik> anyone running hostapd on ubuntu lucid? my clients get disconnected due to innactivity and I am having a tough time figuring out why ... the wifi card on the AP is an ath5k card. it worked fine with previous ubuntu versions
[03:06] <Loshki> __taco: you said all the packags are damaged?  In what way?
[03:06] <__taco> Loshki,it says file form wrong
[03:07] <Loshki> __taco: who says 'file form wrong'?
[03:07] <tdhz77> I don't have access to external HD, can I use ubuntu one to backup my files?
[03:07] <shazbotmcnasty> tdhz77, yes
[03:07] <shazbotmcnasty> that's what it's for
[03:07] <__taco> when I double click that file
[03:07] <tdhz77> How about 10 gigs?
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> tdhz77, if you have enough space on ubuntu one
[03:08] <__taco> Loshki, it says I can't open it when I double click that file
[03:08] <Loshki> tdhz77: calculate how long it would take to upload/download 10GB and you will probably want to reconsider...
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> it'd take a long time to upload though
[03:08] <greezmunkey> slavik: are you sure it's the ubuntu box?
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> yeah
[03:08] <katyarogers> exit
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> doing it wrong katyarogers
[03:08] <slavik> greezmunkey: it's the only thing that changed
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, what kind of file is it?
[03:09] <greezmunkey> slavik: did you google that to see if a bug has been filed, or any other info?
[03:09] <Loshki> shazbotmcnasty: thanks, I need a break...
[03:09] <PDG1> Loshki, yeah... so as it turns out it's not only just a reader... It's also a terrible drive period
[03:09] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty,*.deb
[03:09] <slavik> greezmunkey: let me rephrase, both of them are ubuntu boxes, but one is AP, the other is a netbook
[03:09] <Loshki> PDG1: what model ?
[03:09] <bart_> hi everyone... ubuntu 10.04 install SB X-Fi Extreme sound card... great sound... Mic doesn't work... anyone here fixed that b4?
[03:09] <shazbotmcnasty> did you say you were on a windows xp computer __taco ?
[03:09] <slavik> greezmunkey: been doing it for past 30min ...
[03:09] <PDG1> Loshki, DVD-ROM GDR8163B
[03:09] <shazbotmcnasty> Loshki, no prob :D
[03:10] <tdhz77> Alright, I can't create a new partition from the OSX partition. So ubuntu one will be the only option.
[03:10] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, got it from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/ppp
[03:10] <Gnea> !upgrade
[03:10] <slavik> greezmunkey: not having much luck ... one site I found, it was for a bridged setup which I am not running
[03:10] <shazbotmcnasty> are on you on windows?
[03:10] <shazbotmcnasty> Or are you on ubuntu?
[03:10] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco,
[03:10] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, no, I have double system
[03:11] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, you dual boot?
[03:11] <__taco> yes.
[03:11] <slavik> hmm ...
[03:11] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, yes
[03:11] <furythor> Does anyone know if there is way to get this steelseries wow mouse to work in Ubuntu ?
[03:11] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, and right now you're booted into ubuntu?
[03:11] <stealthii> Guys, I'm looking to disable the bottom quarter of my touchpad, on a MacBookPro5,4, in order to use this area for clicking.  I've not found any documentation on how to do this.
[03:11] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, no, i am in windows now
[03:11] <CaponeBH> Hey guys, how are you all?
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, you can't open *.debs in windows
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, only in windows and debian systems.
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> NOOO
[03:12] <__taco> yes, I know that
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> only in ubuntu and debian systems
[03:12] <greezmunkey> slavik: Here's something, I have to check what version I have here: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.hostap/21159
[03:12] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, I know that
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> okay
[03:12] <bart_> from everything I am reading so far.. it seems that i might have to install ALSA along with creative's unsupported driver
[03:12] <CaponeBH> I changes my login sound, but now when i do login with my user dont came out any sound, but when i do login as root, it works, does anyone know why?
[03:12] <shazbotmcnasty> did you try redownloading it?
[03:12] <bart_> hoping for a simpler fix
[03:12] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, I open it under ubuntu
[03:12] <Loshki> PDG1: yes, cheap & nasty. Buy a cheap samsung SH-S223L from newegg for $22. Great value...
[03:13] <tdhz77> thanks for the help shazbotmcnasty, loshki, dr_willis, greezmunkey ... You inspire me to be good "at the computer." Take care.
[03:13] <shazbotmcnasty> tdhz77, lol k bye bye
[03:13] <Loshki> tdhz77: good luck..
[03:13] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, can you have a try it for me?
[03:13] <shazbotmcnasty> yes
[03:14] <greezmunkey> slavik: I'll be no help on that, I don't have hostapd installed, sorry. :(
[03:14] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, which one is it?
[03:14] <Loshki> stealthii: I didn't even know such a thing is possible. Er, are you sure it's possible...
[03:14] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, down load a file from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/ppp and double click it
[03:14] <shazbotmcnasty> which one
[03:14] <shazbotmcnasty> there are several
[03:14] <slavik> greezmunkey: installing backported modules ... maybe that will install a newer one
[03:15] <slavik> lsmod ath5k
[03:15] <slavik> bah
[03:15] <Loshki> __taco: are you sure you downloaded the correct one for your architecture?
[03:15] <__taco> ppp 2.4.5~git20081126t100229-0ubuntu2 in i386 (Release) or
[03:15] <__taco> ppp 2.4.5~git20081126t100229-0ubuntu3 in i386 (Release)
[03:15] <shazbotmcnasty> that is a source package
[03:16] <greezmunkey> slavik: lsmod ath5k, bah ??
[03:16] <shazbotmcnasty> oh nvm
[03:16] <shazbotmcnasty> it's not
[03:16] <slavik> wrong window, wrong command
[03:16] <greezmunkey> slavik: nice.
[03:16] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, i386 binary is source files?
[03:17] <slavik> dmesg
[03:17] <slavik> grr
 oh nvm
 it's not
[03:17] <slavik> rebooting router, brb greezmunkey
[03:17] <shazbotmcnasty> also __taco it works fine
[03:17] <Loshki> __taco: please paste the output of 'lsb_release -a' to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[03:18] <__taco> Loshki, sure i got the right package for my architecture
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> right click the file and select "gdebi package installer' if you can find it
[03:18] <PDG1> Loshki, well I've actually got another one hanging around here... but I played Dodgeball pretty hard a couple days ago and my muscles are pretty tired... so I don't feel like doing too much
[03:18] <Loshki> PDG1: it'll wait till tomorrow... :-)
[03:18] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, it works fine?
[03:19] <shazbotmcnasty> yes.
[03:19] <Arphetic> is wine installed by default on ubuntu?
[03:19] <shazbotmcnasty> Arphetic, I don't believe so.
[03:19] <edbian> Arphetic, no
[03:19] <felixn> could someone help me with cryptsetup?  I updated from 9.10 to 10.04, and now when I boot into kernel-2.6.32-22-generic, cryptluks still asks for the passphrase but pressing enter does nothing, it's very weird
[03:19] <xangua> Arphetic: no
[03:19] <shazbotmcnasty> NO
[03:19] <PDG1> also... this is a dual boot machine I have... does Windows XP have a way to mount ext3?
[03:19] <shazbotmcnasty> PDG1, yes
[03:19] <sebsebseb> PDG1: I  woudn't recommend it anymore though
[03:19] <gogeta> PDG1: yes but not a good idea its unstable
[03:20] <PDG1> poo :(
[03:20] <greezmunkey> Loshki: Will that drive erad and write cd's as well?
[03:20] <shazbotmcnasty> PDG1, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[03:20] <shazbotmcnasty> it works
[03:20] <shazbotmcnasty> it's just rikidy
[03:20] <FloodBot3> shazbotmcnasty: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:20] <shazbotmcnasty> >_<
[03:20] <furythor> Should I have more than 1 mousex (where x is some number) in /sys/class/input ?
[03:20] <sebsebseb> PDG1: it worked alright last time I did it, however best to keep Windows away from your Linux partition really, think about it, get a nasty virus in WIndows, bye bye your Ext3 partition data as well
[03:20] <PDG1> hmm
[03:20] <PDG1> maybe you're right
[03:20] <PDG1> well I just want read access
[03:21] <__taco> Loshki,sorry, I can't do that now. i am under windows
[03:21] <Loshki> greezmunkey: the samsung SH-S223L? It does it all except blu-ray...
[03:21] <sebsebseb> PDG1: have your good data on the Linux partition, and use Windows even less as a result :D
[03:21] <gogeta> sebsebseb: umm no it still wouldent effect linux
[03:21] <sebsebseb> PDG1: Ubuntu can read and write to Windows NTFS no problem, by the way
[03:21] <greezmunkey> Loshki: pretty cheap, nice tip - thanks :)
[03:22] <linuxmonster> windows for games (for now) and Linux for everything else
[03:22] <PDG1> sebsebseb, I'm not even sure why i need/want an XP partition
[03:22] <gogeta> linuxmonster: windows for some games linux for most
[03:22] <sebsebseb> linuxmonster: oh one of those, I would like to point out, that there are some pretty good opensource native Linux games as well
[03:22] <`blackmk4`linux> i have two nics in this computer which are both plugged in
[03:22] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, i copy it to USB disk, so some wrong with it?
[03:22] <gogeta> linuxmonster: wine can handel alot of games well
[03:22] <`blackmk4`linux> my box is headless, how can i switch active nics
[03:22] <PDG1> well I'm going to reboots
[03:22] <Loshki> greezmunkey: I keep an eye on http://slickdeals.net/ when I'm looking for hardware...
[03:23] <sebsebseb> PDG1: yeah be on Ubuntu mainly instead of Windows :)
[03:23] <linuxmonster> seb I know Linux can game I just finished a session of assualt cube actuaklly
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, why don't you download it on the ubuntu computer, and use it for the ubuntu computer.
[03:23] <GeekSquid> `blackmk4`linux: edit /etc/network/interfaces ... then restart networking
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> Why do you need to transfer it? Does the computer not have internet access?
[03:23] <linuxmonster> but I also love flight sim and sorry Flightgear just dont cut it lol
[03:23] <sebsebseb> linuxmonster: alright, well  theres this idea that Linux distros suck  for gaming, which isn't true
[03:23] <`blackmk4`linux> alright, thanks
[03:23] <Loshki> shazbotmcnasty: because his network is fried on Ubuntu...
[03:23] <gogeta> `blackmk4`linux: ssh in
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> oh
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> hence the ppp dl
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> lmao
[03:23] <`blackmk4`linux> how do you rename eth1 to eth0
[03:24] <Loshki> shazbotmcnasty: :-)
[03:24] <gogeta> `blackmk4`linux: umm you dont
[03:24] <Ferchux> I have a question: I've got 2 NIC's eth0 y eth1.... ¿How Can I use one or another making some rule to conmutate them by the host ip?
[03:24] <shazbotmcnasty> also no __taco you can move it to a usb device and it will work, but if you didn't let it right all the way, or during the process it got corrupt, then it would not work.
[03:24] <`blackmk4`linux> you can, i've done it
[03:24] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, no networking
[03:24] <greezmunkey> Assualt Cube == compiz ??
[03:24] <rooisto47> hi everyone
[03:24] <`blackmk4`linux> i just don't remember which file i need to edit to change a nics name
[03:24] <shazbotmcnasty> so __taco I would boot back into windows, as you're in right now, download it AGAIN, and put it on the USB stick, AGAIN
[03:25] <rooisto47> hi everyone
[03:25] <mjrdelgado> hi
[03:25] <stealthii> Loshki: if it's a synaptics touchpad, i should be able to set the boundaries of which the touchpad operates the mouse pointer.
[03:25] <linuxmonster> this is the next Linux game I install http://freshmeat.net/projects/conquest
[03:25] <shazbotmcnasty> greezmunkey, I thought you couldn't have compiz on with assaultcube
[03:25] <Loshki> Ferchux: conmutate?
[03:25] <rooisto47> I get this error msg when using pppoeconf :
[03:25] <rooisto47> CHAP authentication failed: Reject(82): Read c280_callstatus table failed when reset local postpaid user
[03:25] <linuxmonster> though is not linux only but I can live with that
[03:25] <te_> `blackmk4`linux: But if it is using dhcp, you will need to quickly switch ports, or reboot instead of restarting the network.
[03:25] <mjrdelgado> does someone know how to set up the bluetooth on a toshiba laptop???
[03:25] <rooisto47> can you explain me what does it mean?
[03:25] <histo> !bluetooth | mjrdelgado
[03:26] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, that file is so small..
[03:26] <`blackmk4`linux> i plan on putting together a shellscript and running it in screen
[03:26] <`blackmk4`linux> lol
[03:26] <Ferchux> yeap! ah, sorry Loshki switch!
[03:26] <Loshki> stealthii: maybe in windows, but last time I messed with a laptop touchpad, I was lucky to get basic functionality...
[03:26] <Ferchux> no conmutate
[03:26] <Ferchux> :p
[03:26] <mjrdelgado> thanx, I'll give it a try
[03:26] <histo> `blackmk4`linux: is there a reason for wanting it changed?
[03:26] <`blackmk4`linux> yeah, OCD tendencies
[03:26] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, so it has enough time finished to copy it
[03:27] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, make sure that you remove the usb stick correctly
[03:27] <gogeta> histo: to lazy to configure eth1 to be a primary maybe
[03:27] <shazbotmcnasty> just try it again... it could have got corrupted in the move, even if the whole thing did write
[03:27] <`blackmk4`linux> ok found the file
[03:27] <`blackmk4`linux> /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[03:28] <histo> `blackmk4`linux: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file
[03:28] <Loshki> Ferchux: you can configure certain routes to make them go via eth0 or eth1, if that's what you mean, by using the 'route' command. It's hard to get them correct though...
[03:29] <histo> `blackmk4`linux: ahh you beat me
[03:29] <`blackmk4`linux> :)
[03:29] <stealthii> Loshki: might be a point.  I just want to use the button underneath the touchpad to actually click, avoiding the mouse pointer moving when i do so.
[03:29] <`blackmk4`linux> time to sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[03:29]  * `blackmk4`linux crosses fingers
[03:29] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, ok I try to do that again, thx, BTW, whether it need other dependes?
[03:29] <gogeta> stealthii: i say just decress its sentivty
[03:29] <Ferchux> thanks Loshki, I wanna read about de route command
[03:29] <`blackmk4`linux> hrm
[03:29] <Loshki> Ferchux: buena suerte...
[03:29] <`blackmk4`linux> i wonder if that worked
[03:29] <gogeta> Ferchux: man route
[03:30] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, it would still open, and tell you if you needed the dependencies
[03:30] <`blackmk4`linux> nope
[03:30] <Loshki> __taco: no more 'wrong file format' messages?
[03:30] <renegaid> on windows i can middle click and get the auto scroll. how do i get this in ubuntu
[03:31] <gogeta> renegaid: in your mouse prefs
[03:31] <shazbotmcnasty> __taco, it depends on all of this: libc6 (>= 2.11);libpam-;libpam-runtime (>= 0.76-13.1);libpam0g (>= <IP_ADDRESS>);libpcap0.8 (>= 0.9.8);netbase; procps
[03:31] <linuxmonster> anyone ever played The babylon project in Linux its a freespace 2 clone
[03:32] <__taco> shazbotmcnasty, maybe it is permission problem
[03:32] <__taco> Loshki,maybe it is permission problem
[03:32] <shazbotmcnasty> no
[03:32] <shazbotmcnasty> it's not
[03:32] <histo> !anyone | linuxmonster
[03:32] <renegaid> there is nothing for that in mouse settings. this is a firefox setting
[03:33] <shazbotmcnasty> !chicken
[03:33] <Loshki> __taco: what os version are you running. And on what architecture?
[03:33] <Loshki> shazbotmcnasty: ubottu has an entry for chicken?
[03:33] <xangua> renegaid: then edit the preferences in fx
[03:33] <wildbat> hmmm i have this ouput on update-grub~ http://pastebin.com/7NAK9a24 ,should i worry about it?
[03:33] <__taco> Loshki, ubuntu-10.04 and i386
[03:33] <Loshki> __taco: 32 or 64 bit?
[03:33] <shazbotmcnasty> Loshki, nope
[03:34] <__taco> 32bit for OS
[03:34] <__taco> hardware is 64 bits
[03:35] <edbian> __taco, Loshki i386 != 64 bit
[03:35] <phoul> How do you check the level of fragmentation of an ext4 file system.
[03:35] <phoul> ?*
[03:35] <__taco> edbian, i know.
[03:35] <Loshki> edbian: thanks. I can't keep track of these things any more...
[03:35] <__taco> i installed 32bit OS
[03:35] <slavik> greezmunkey: seems the client is not responding to eap packets or some such
[03:36] <edbian> phoul, I'm not sure but I can tell you ext4 automatically cleans up fragmentation on the fly
[03:36] <edbian> phoul, So you don't have to!
[03:36] <renegaid> no setting for it in preference. It worked by default on windows.
[03:36] <histo> !defrag | phoul
[03:36] <phoul> Orry?
[03:36] <phoul> well thats old
[03:36] <phoul> cuz its not ext3 anymore =\
[03:36] <edbian> Someone needs to update that bot!
[03:36] <histo> phoul: you don't need to defrag
[03:36] <edbian> phoul, ext4 does the same trick
[03:37] <histo> edbian: you can offer a suggestion
[03:37] <edbian> phoul, I would also like to know how to check fragmentation as well
[03:37] <renegaid> found it
[03:37] <Gimy_001> ?
[03:37] <Loshki> edbian: dunno. When fsck finishes, doesn't it say something about fragmentation?
[03:37] <joel_davila> hello all
[03:38] <Gimy_001> does anyone use Lubuntu?
[03:38] <coldboot|home> I just installed Ubuntu 10.4, and in addition to it not booting, just like every other time I've upgrade Ubuntu, it's now hiding the "hibernate" and "suspend" options, without any explanation.
[03:38] <coldboot|home> Does anyone know how to re-enable them.
[03:38] <edbian> joel_davila, Hi1
[03:38] <coldboot|home> I really like Ubuntu, but making my system unbootable for the last 5 upgrades is retarded...
[03:38] <phoul> lol i went into hibernate earlier and when i came out of it hp warned me i went into hibernate due to overheating
[03:38] <phoul> it was weird.
[03:39] <castle`> backup your files and do a fresh install
[03:39] <shazbotmcnasty> I love how you can't boot, but it's working.
[03:39] <joel_davila> hello, does u know how to configure linux to send log to snmp server??
[03:39] <charless40> como entro a ubuntu serves en espa;ol
[03:39] <Loshki> phoul: temperature control on laptops isn't as good as on windows, I believe, Same for battery life...
[03:39] <shazbotmcnasty> !spanish charless40
[03:39] <phoul> Loshki: i have fine temp control lol
[03:39] <shazbotmcnasty> !spanish | charless40
[03:40] <phoul> it didnt overheat
[03:40] <phoul> didnt even get warm
[03:40] <Loshki> phoul: congratulations. Sounds like you found a bug...
[03:40] <phoul> lol, im pretty sure its prolly just my install, its been upgraded from alpha 1
[03:40] <eugene__> coldboot|home, : i agree with you .
[03:40] <phoul> lucid*
[03:41] <histo> phoul: well put /home on a seperate partition and reinstall then is always an option.
[03:42] <phoul> im reformatting it the first chance i get, i never have good luck upgrading through alphas and betas lol
[03:42] <edbian> phoul, Nobody does, that's why they're alphas and betas
[03:45]  * iflema says who?
[03:45] <edbian> quite...
[03:46] <Loshki> phoul: I never upgrade. I always do scratch installs. There are enough variables as it is...
[03:47] <CaptainTrek> !jaunty
[03:47] <CaptainTrek> is support for Jaunty still available?
[03:48] <te_> CaptainTrek: Yes
[03:48] <GeekSquid> CaptainTrek: yes
[03:48] <edbian> CaptainTrek, yep
[03:48] <CaptainTrek> is there any tool or program I can install to get my time synced with a timeserver?
[03:48] <iflema> CaptainTrek until october this year
[03:48] <edbian> CaptainTrek, npd
[03:48] <CaptainTrek> npd.
[03:48]  * CaptainTrek opens terminal
[03:48] <edbian> CaptainTrek, ntp maybe?
[03:49] <bastid_raZor> ntp, yes
[03:49] <aliciapg> is there a way to get gnome subitles to work with rmvb files?
[03:49] <bastid_raZor> !ntp
[03:49] <edbian> CaptainTrek, there ya go!
[03:49] <edbian> CaptainTrek, ntpd is the network time protocol daemon
[03:50] <wildbat> is there a tools to limit the uploading speed of rsync?
[03:50] <Jan\> I can't install 10.04 on http://www.biostar-usa.com/ideqdetails.asp?model=ideq+200sb
[03:50] <CaptainTrek> yeah, but GUI config isnt working on my system
[03:50] <CaptainTrek> should I restart for that?
[03:50] <edbian> CaptainTrek, edit /etc/ntpd.conf
[03:50] <Loshki> wildbat: there are flags you can give rsync e.g. bwlimit
[03:50] <CaptainTrek> i'll just restart first
[03:50] <CaptainTrek> and come back her
[03:50] <CaptainTrek> e
[03:50] <edbian> CaptainTrek, good luck
[03:51] <wildbat> Loshki, @o@ O! thanks XD
[03:53] <CaptainTrek> so...
[03:53] <CaptainTrek> GUI config for ntp isnt an option in GNOME
[03:53] <CaptainTrek> what file do I edit?>
[03:53] <edbian> CaptainTrek, /etc/ntp.conf
[03:54] <CaptainTrek> and to set it to autoupdate on boot?
[03:54] <edbian> CaptainTrek, It auto updates all the time.  That's the point of it
[03:54] <CaptainTrek> okay
[03:54] <CaptainTrek> what servers can I specify?
[03:54] <sebsebseb> Jan\: hrm on what? some sort of gaming machine?
[03:55] <aliciapg> could someone help me get mplayer's seeking to work correctly with rmvb files?
[03:56] <iflema> CaptainTrek desktop menu      System / Administration / Time and Date
[03:56] <CaptainTrek> ah it was hiding
[03:56] <CaptainTrek> thanks iflema
[03:57] <edbian> CaptainTrek, It probably didn't exist until the ntp was installed
[03:57] <Loshki> aliciapg: it's a nasty proprietary format. I'm not sure there's anything you can twiddle that will magically make it work....
[03:57] <CaptainTrek> edbian: no i saw it there, but the GUI instructions said right click the time in the notifications bar area
[03:57] <CaptainTrek> regardless, got it working
[03:57] <CaptainTrek> i think
[03:58] <edbian> CaptainTrek, ha ha.  That's the thing.  Is it actually working?  Who knows.  Is your clock off by .003168  seconds?
[03:58] <aliciapg> Loshki: ugh... i know, but it's the only choice i had and i don't want to lose video quality
[03:58] <histo> is there a way to get a grub console after i've already booted?
[03:58] <aliciapg> Loshki: probably have to convert it?
[03:58] <Loshki> CaptainTrek: you can do a one time update at boot time by adding something like: /usr/sbin/ntpdate utcnist.colorado.edu to your /etc/rc.local
[03:59] <edbian> histo, In a terminal "grub"
[03:59] <histo> edbian: I tired that
[03:59] <histo> edbian: tried
[03:59] <edbian> histo, as root
[03:59] <iflema> CaptainTrek itll show up in the syslog soon or restart the ntp service and itll sync straight away.....
[03:59] <Loshki> aliciapg: well, like I say, I don't know of any user configurable knobs that will help, so all I can suggest is yes, convert it
[03:59] <histo> edbian: nope
[03:59] <edbian> histo, Works for me! :)
[03:59] <CaptainTrek> iflema: its synced
[03:59] <CaptainTrek> it works
[04:00] <aliciapg> Loshki: T-T thanks though
[04:00] <ta2mania> I have the latest ubuntu server installed and a static ip set on eth0 and it is connected to an adsl modem router
[04:00] <histo> edbian: in lucid?
[04:00] <bastid_raZor> edbian: you have to remember.. debian != Ubuntu
[04:00] <ta2mania> but I can't ping the gateway, any idea?
[04:00] <aliciapg> Loshki: i'm going to keep looking and if i can't find any other alternative i guess that's what i'll have to do >-<
[04:00] <edbian> bastid_raZor, :)
[04:00] <ta2mania> I then tried the settings on my windows laptop and it works fine
[04:00] <Loshki> aliciapg: by all means. And feel free to ask here again for a 2nd opinion if you like...
[04:01] <histo> edbian: and its grub2
[04:01] <ta2mania> when I ping the gateway, it says "network unreachable"
[04:01] <aliciapg> Loshki: haha i think i will thanks
[04:01] <edbian> histo, Yep.  I have no idea how to get to that.  try: "which grub"
[04:01] <histo> edbian: its not there
[04:01] <histo> edbian: there is no binary called grub on my machine
[04:02] <edbian> histo, Yeah.  Grub2??  I'm just guessing here
[04:02] <Loshki> aliciapg: oh, almost forgot, ask in #mplayer...
[04:02] <histo> edbian: no i've already been there
[04:02] <CkhiKuzad> whenever i try to boot my LiveUSB in Grub2 it keeps on giving me the error "unkown command 'initrd'"
[04:02] <aliciapg> Loshki: oh thanks didn't really think about that >-<
[04:03] <felixn> hey, when I boot my initrd, it doesn't allow me to enter my cryptsetup password, I'm thinking maybe it has an incorrect keyboard layout selected, can I set one in my initramfs config?
[04:04] <histo> I really don't want to restart to run vbeinfo
[04:05] <bastid_raZor> histo: heh, i was in the same situation yesterday. i found no way to get a grub console to run it. i had to restart.
[04:05] <aliciapg> does anyone know how to get mplayer's seeking to work correctly with rmvb files?
[04:05] <slavik> anyone running hostapd on ubuntu lucid? my clients get disconnected due to innactivity and I am having a tough time figuring out why ... the wifi card on the AP is an ath5k card. it worked fine with previous ubuntu versions ... google hasn't helped so far
[04:06] <Gimy_001> for mplayer to play rmvb files you need codecs
[04:06] <slopslaptop> hey all i am having a problem with my gnome-panels it keeps freezing
[04:06] <histo> bastid_raZor: i'm going to find a way
[04:06] <slopslaptop> i have done  sudo killall gnome-panel
[04:06] <slopslaptop> but then the computer freezes for like a min
[04:06] <xangua> slopslaptop: have you tried to restore the defailt config of the panel¿
[04:07] <xangua> !panels
[04:07] <slopslaptop> no i have not
[04:07] <slopslaptop> stby let me try now
[04:07] <thebruce> could anyone help me with file and printer sharing from ubuntu to a windows 7 machine
[04:08] <Jordan_U> histo: The splash is probably lower resolution on your installed system because you're using proprietary drivers.
[04:08] <craigbass1976> I had flash on 64 bit lucid that didn't quite work right (I noticed it using google analytics) and it was whatever I found in the synaptics package manager.  So I went here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash and no I'm up and running.
[04:08] <slopslaptop> xangua, that seamed to have worked thnasks
[04:08] <CkhiKuzad> oh for gods sake, why is it that if i ask anything that is based on my bootloader, i get no help, yet if i were to ask why my speakers dont play audo, 50 people would try to help?
[04:08] <craigbass1976> My wife is on 32 bit lucid, and I'm wondering what the best way to get better flash for her is. She notices on facebook, and if this doesn't work right...  well...
[04:09] <edbian> CkhiKuzad, democracy rules here bud.  Audio is more fun to help with!
[04:09] <xangua> craigbass1976: install restricted-extras
[04:09] <histo> Jordan_U: I think its grubs config is different from the install cd.
[04:09] <xangua> ubuntu-restricted-extras if she's using gnome
[04:09] <histo> Jordan_U: but that would make sense.
[04:09] <Flannel> CkhiKuzad: People can only help with what they're familiar with.  Right now it seems that audio people are awake, and bootloader people aren't.
[04:09] <Agu10> if I put a terminal in the desktop...
[04:10] <Agu10> can I do it without compiz?
[04:10] <CkhiKuzad> well we need to wake up the bootloader people!
[04:10] <Flannel> CkhiKuzad: Just be patient, repeat your question every 30 minutes or so, and sooner or later someone will be able to help you
[04:10] <greezmunkey> Heh, kb fail in irssi...
[04:10] <histo> Jordan_U: I'm trying to run configure grub for a higher res so plymouth will be happy again and not 320x400 or whatever god awefull res its at now.
[04:10] <edbian> histo, From everything I see you can't access the grub command line without doing it at boot time!  I don't like that "feature"
[04:10] <Gimy_001> bootloader people are working
[04:10] <CkhiKuzad> Flannel, i will have time to repeat my question 48 times a day as of next saturday, until then, i really need to know if there is a channel for grub2
[04:11] <histo> edbian: me neither its something they got rid of from old grub.
[04:11] <histo> CkhiKuzad: /j #grub   thats where i'm at now
[04:11] <Flannel> CkhiKuzad: #grub may be able to help you.
[04:11] <craigbass1976> !restricted-extras
[04:11] <edbian> CkhiKuzad, The only channel on this server is #grub
[04:11] <craigbass1976> ! restricted-extras
[04:12] <edbian> craigbass1976, Apparently there isn't anything to say about that!
[04:13] <Gimy_001> grub is different since ubuntu 9.10, it appears to me that it is not easy to config
[04:13] <craigbass1976> edbian, I see that.  Thought I messed it up first with no space
[04:13] <xangua> craigbass1976: restricted extras installs adobe's plugin, codecs, fonts, etc
[04:14] <edbian> craigbass1976, try "aptitude show restricted-extras"
[04:15] <craigbass1976> edbian, It's already installed, and I think the flash I'm about to install is a repeat of what I uninstalled.  We'll see
[04:16] <craigbass1976> I'll be glad when everybody moves to html5 ...
[04:16] <Gimy_001> does anyone know how to save the resolution for the next booting with Lubuntu??
[04:16] <edbian> craigbass1976, Be sure you only have 1 flash player installed on your system!    Maybe something borked in the upgrade from hardy
[04:17] <edbian> thebruce, short answer: yes
[04:17] <crocket> Hi
[04:17] <MaT-dg> Trying to setup a remote here with LIRC. I can recieve commands (tested with irw command). Now, how to map these commands to functions in programs?
[04:17] <jud> i have an email list in spreadsheet but there are multiple entries of some. what's the easiest way to reduce the list to one entry of each?
[04:18] <crocket> After doing some installations in ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx, firefox didn't start at all.
[04:18] <crocket> After searching, I found out that ~/.mozilla directory was given to root.
[04:18] <crocket> I changed the owner of ~/.mozilla to a user.
[04:18] <crocket> It started working again
[04:18] <crocket> Why did the owner of ~/.mozilla change?
[04:19] <frooh_> hey guys, I just got a Lenovo x100e and instaled ubuntu on it; it crashes immediately after boot;  what logfile should I look in to see what's going on?
[04:19] <frooh_> (I can boot with the usb key to look at logs etc)
[04:19] <crocket> I don't know what circumstances it can change under.
[04:19] <xangua> crocket: maybe you laucnhed firefox with sudo, bad idea
[04:19] <Gimy_001> clear
[04:19] <crocket> xangua : I never executed firefox on terminal
[04:21] <aliciapg> does anyone know of a program that can subtitle rmvb files?
[04:21] <tonsofpcs> vi?
[04:22] <frooh_> also, since 10.4 I can't seem to see the grub menu; is there a key I need to press to show it?
[04:22] <edbian> crocket, Did you ever sudo chmod -R owner:someGroup ~/*
[04:22] <edbian> ??
[04:22] <unitypunk> can anyone help me get my bttv card to deinterlace?
[04:22] <bastid_raZor> frooh_: press shift after POST
[04:22] <crocket> edbian : only to give ~/.mozilla back to its owner.
[04:22] <edbian> s/chmod/chown
[04:22] <edbian> crocket, It was 1/2 joking :P
[04:22] <crocket> difficult joke
[04:23] <edbian> crocket, yeah...
[04:23] <frooh_> bastid_raZor: thanks so much
[04:23] <histo> Jordan_U: yeah it looks like the propreitary drivers are doing it. Do you know of a way to fix that?
[04:23] <eduardopl> guys help me out: how do i use my joypad as a mouse
[04:23] <bastid_raZor> frooh_: you're welcome.
[04:24] <xangua> eduardopl: try qjoypad
[04:25] <eduardopl> i can't run ./config for it, xangua
[04:25] <eduardopl> btw, i just can't run bash scripts
[04:25] <eduardopl> why is that?
[04:25] <jud> i have an email list in spreadsheet but there are multiple entries of some. what's the easiest way to reduce the list to one entry of each?
[04:25] <Loshki> aliciapg: under linux, nothing. Google turned up this: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/archive/simplest-way-to-add-subtitles-to-rmvb-file-t312579.html. It sounds awful...
[04:25] <eduardopl> i get a bash: ./config: Permission denied for something that has permission to execute
[04:25] <histo> eduardopl: qjoypad  ?
[04:25] <eduardopl> yes, histo
[04:25] <Jan\> sebsebseb, no just a smal form factor pc
[04:26] <xangua> eduardopl: add the playdeb repository to easily install it http://www.playdeb.net/
[04:26] <histo> eduardopl: i've found some info for ya hold on  sec i'll give you link
[04:26] <Jordan_U> histo: You can continue as you were going to to at least get a slightly higher resolution by using a different VBE mode, but you might not be able to get your native resolution and if you do it still won't look as good.
[04:26] <__taco> eduardopl: ./configure
[04:26] <pat5star> eduardopl: who owns the bash file you're trying to run?
[04:26] <aliciapg> Loshki: ugh not looking good for me
[04:27] <histo> Jordan_U: Yeha I tried native res and then I get no splash
[04:27] <`blackmk4`linux> how can i figure out what port is bound to what process
[04:27] <eduardopl> i'm trying to run it as root, and i gave it a chmod 777, i guess that shouldn't be the issue, pat5star
[04:27] <eduardopl> thanks histo
[04:27] <pat5star> eduardopl: nope, that's not the issue then
[04:28] <CkhiKuzad> how do i run a .patch file?
[04:28] <jud> i have an email list in spreadsheet but there are multiple entries of some. what's the easiest way to reduce the list to one entry of each?
[04:28] <jrib> CkhiKuzad: what are you trying to accomplish?
[04:28] <CkhiKuzad> patch gnome-panel for this theme i am using
[04:28] <histo> eduardopl: http://qjoypad.sourceforge.net/ they have debs availible
[04:28] <CkhiKuzad> using*
[04:28] <vonlogik> blackmk, netstat -o should show a pid
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> `blackmk4`linux: netstat -napt
[04:28] <vonlogik> then do a ps -ef
[04:29] <Loshki> aliciapg: My advice? Convert it to something easily handled (avi?) and take the hit on quality...
[04:29] <jrib> CkhiKuzad: erm, it's non-trivial if you haven't done it before.  Grab the source package, apply the patch (man patch), rebuild the package, install, maintain
[04:29] <vonlogik> bastid had the right args, my bad
[04:29] <eduardopl> thanks histo, i'm already downloading it
[04:29] <`blackmk4`linux> tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:21              <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      759/inetd
[04:29] <histo> eduardopl: k. yeah that seems to be what everyone is using
[04:29] <`blackmk4`linux> what would cause inetd to take it instead of proftpd
[04:29] <ap0th> hello everyone. i've lost my notification bubbles with gwibber...the icon just turns green now. can anyone help?
[04:29] <aliciapg> Loshki: man i really don't want to lose quality T-T
[04:30] <pat5star> jud: can't help you with the spreadsheet, but if you can put that list into a text file then I could
[04:30] <aliciapg> Loshki: it works in mplayer, just not in gnome subtitles using mplayer
[04:30] <xangua> ap0th: edit> preferences
[04:30] <ap0th> xangua: everything is set correctly
[04:30] <bastid_raZor> aliciapg: have you asked in #mplayer ? there are some devs that lurk in there.
[04:31] <xangua> ap0th: then you uninstalled notify-osd
[04:31] <aliciapg> bastid_raZor: so far no reply...
[04:31] <IMTheNachoMan> if I have a ubuntu linux server (cli only) in a VM, should I set up a firewall on that server? im opening ports on my router to allow web traffic through to the linux server
[04:31] <needhelp1> is pidgin supposed to work with the indicator applet ?
[04:31] <ap0th> xangua: notify-osd is installed
[04:31] <jud> pat5star: `ok
[04:32] <Loshki> aliciapg: Well, the quality hit is overestimated, IMO. You could always just try transcoding it at high quality and see if the result makes your teeth ache. Oh, can not just add an .srt file for mplayer?
[04:32] <stephen> t
[04:32] <slimjimflim> hi just installed from a 9.x disk and upgraded to 10.4.  now every once in a while, the monitor flashes to 3-5 white lines from the top left to the middle of the screen on an otherwise black screen...then back to black
[04:32] <aliciapg> Loshki: well i was going to make the srt file
[04:32] <jud> pat5star: into gedit text editor?
[04:33] <slimjimflim> and i can't escape out of it except w/ ctrl+alt+del
[04:33] <slimjimflim> which reboots the machine
[04:33] <needhelp1> is pidgin supposed to work with indicator applet?
[04:33] <xangua> needhelp1: yes
[04:33] <slimjimflim> the last time it happened was in the middle of a cam broadcast through flash/ff
[04:33] <needhelp1> xangua: do i have to change some settings or anything, i dont get the notifications
[04:33] <xangua> needhelp1: just disable pidgin's notificacion icon
[04:33] <Loshki> aliciapg: if you have an .srt file which matches a video file, mplayer usually opens it to get the subtitles automatically. Won't help your seek problem though...
[04:34] <pat5star> jud: put the list in a file called emails.txt, then in a shell execute this: cat emails.txt | sort | uniq > uniq-emails.txt
[04:34] <slimjimflim> can anyone help?^^^^^^
[04:34] <xangua> needhelp1: you mean the back bubbles¿ pidgin-notify i believe you need to install/enable in tools> plugins
[04:34] <needhelp1> ahh it worked, i disabled pidgin notifications and now its working :)
[04:34] <CSSnub> How do I set apached to forward an incoming domain to a specific url, port and file? I have a domain map.website.com and that points to mysite.com - but I want mysite.com to see where the traffic is coming from (the cname) and point it to mysite.com:8080/somefile.html.erb - Make sense?
[04:35] <aliciapg> Loshki: i don't have an srt file, i was going to make it myself?
[04:35] <xangua> needhelp1: it's pidgin-libnotify
[04:35] <CSSnub> I don't even know enough to Google properly - just a few keywords would help.
[04:35] <histo> CSSnub: virtualhosts
[04:35] <Gm4n> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Release is throwing a 404... any ideas?
[04:35] <needhelp1> xangua: do i need to install that?
[04:35] <histo> CSSnub: there are apache suport chanels on here
[04:35] <jud> pat5star: and in the text file, should the emails be seperated by anything specific?
[04:35] <pat5star> jud: I've never used gedit, but it may have an option to access a terminal from it's tools menu or something, in which case you can execute that command from there
[04:36] <xangua> needhelp1: iy you don't have it, yes
[04:36] <pat5star> jud: nope, not if they are each on their own line
[04:36] <CSSnub> histo: I tried #apache with no luck - any specifically?
[04:36] <aliciapg> Loshki: i can't make it without seeking working correctly...
[04:36] <bastid_raZor> CSSnub: #httpd is the apache channel
[04:36] <Loshki> aliciapg: you mean, author it yourself. How long is your video? I tried writing subs once, and it's an awful, painstaking kind of process. The pros use speech recognition software apparently...
[04:36] <needhelp1> xangua: address something to me again so i cant test it please
[04:36] <jud> pat5star: `ok, seperate lines then. cheers!
[04:36] <CSSnub> thanks guys
[04:37] <histo> CSSnub: #httpd
[04:37] <needhelp1> opps.. try that again sorry
[04:37] <pat5star> jud: wait, are they not on separate lines?
[04:37] <aliciapg> Loshki: i don't mind
[04:37] <pat5star> jud: what do they just have spaces between them?
[04:37] <Loshki> aliciapg: does it have to be mplayer? What about xine, vlc, totem. Are they any better?
[04:38] <IMTheNachoMan> is there anyway to start ubuntu headless, since i'll only be SSH ing to it?
[04:38] <jud> pat5star:  i haven't compiled them yet but what do you suggest?
[04:38] <aliciapg> Loshki: well mplayer is used by gnome subtitles, if i could find another program i would be willing to install that as long as it worked >-<
[04:38] <RobertSaganek_> does anyone know of a good antivirus for ubuntu
[04:39] <Jordan_U> !virus | RobertSaganek_
[04:39] <Loshki> aliciapg: well, it's probably heresy, but I run windows subtitleworkshop under wine and it runs quite well...
[04:39] <MACscr_lappy> what do i press to get to the console? The directions ive been given either give me blank screens, do nothing, or crash the system
[04:40] <Jordan_U> !boot | IMTheNachoMan
[04:40] <aliciapg> Loshki: heresy?
[04:40] <needhelp1> ok i have one more question, WICD keeps telling me that it needs access to my  computers network cards and needs a password on startup. Its acting like the wicd applet is starting before the wicd dameon ...has anyone seen this before?
[04:40] <Jordan_U> IMTheNachoMan: You may just want to install Ubuntu server
[04:40] <IMTheNachoMan> Jordan_U: i did install ubuntu server
[04:40] <pat5star> jud: if all the emails are on one line with spaces between, do this: cat emails.txt | tr ' ' '\n' | sort | uniq > uniq-emails.txt
[04:40] <Loshki> aliciapg: excuse my small joke: recommending a windows app in a ubuntu support channel...
[04:41] <aliciapg> Loshki: oh heh
[04:41] <mikelifeguard> Is it possible to configure aptitude to not split up packages by repository (main/universe/...)?
[04:41] <aliciapg> Loshki: i may just attempt to subtitle with it failing...
[04:41] <Jordan_U> IMTheNachoMan: I think if you just remove the virtual monitor in your VM it will boot fine.
[04:41] <pat5star> jud: then your new list will be uniq-emails.txt which will be all your emails sorted alphabetically without any duplicates
[04:42] <bastid_raZor> IMTheNachoMan: http://tinyurl.com/y95lg4b
[04:42] <jud> pat5star: regardless of the number of spaces/
[04:42] <Jordan_U> IMTheNachoMan: You may want to setup a serial terminal first though, so that you can access things before networking starts
[04:42] <pat5star> jud: yep
[04:42] <jud> pat5star: cool, thanks!
[04:42] <IMTheNachoMan> Jordan_U: yeah, that is what i was trying to figure out how to do?
[04:42] <pat5star> jud: yw
[04:42] <bastid_raZor> IMTheNachoMan: disregard.. you don't have gnome/gdm
[04:43] <IMTheNachoMan> Jordan_U: i can ssh in fine now, its up and running, but i dont know if there is anythign else i can do to make it more efficient
[04:43] <herdivet__> Can anyone here help with GTK in Python?
[04:44] <rickabillie> Hello, I messed up my xorg.conf in 10.04, how do I get into terminal so that I can fix it?
[04:44] <Flannel> rickabillie: ctrl-alt-f1
[04:44] <Jordan_U> IMTheNachoMan: If you virtual machine software isn't presenting the OS with graphics hardware then you're not wasting any performance (and I doubt that the performance difference would be measurable even if you were)
[04:44] <Jordan_U> s/you/your
