[08:18] <dimitri> thank you ....
[08:18] <Reign_> I found the Help information on DVDs. Its not searchable by install or DVDs or plug ins for that matter. I clicked and installed all the required options. I restarted. It still doesn't work.
[08:18] <ben42> ActionParsnip, is there a file i could remove to reset the conf ?
[08:19] <celthunder> josuf107: lol i have like 30 things open on a netbook and still using hardly any processor and only like 65mb of ram...not to mention it puts windows hwere i want automatically not all over the place...
[08:19] <celthunder> Reign_: what're you trying to do?
[08:19] <josuf107> celthunder: i know. I never realized how much space I wasted looking at fragments of my background, and how much time I wasted moving windows around with my mouse
[08:19] <Reign_> celthunder: play a movie for the last 3+ hours
[08:20] <Snicers-Home> celthunder, xmonad basically allows for multiple terminals in a text environment?

[08:20] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | vanmik_
[08:20] <josuf107> snicers-home: it's a tiling window manager for X
[08:20] <Reign_> celthunder: How exactly do I do that? The instructions don't make sense. I've been trying to install things. And can't!
[08:21] <pyrony> <3

[08:21] <tramm> In Ubuntu gettext MO files are placed in /usr/share/locale or /usr/share/locale-langpack and the first directory is preferred to langpack directory. Is this all about MO file priorities in Ubuntu or is there a way of automatically overriding files by version number or date? Only by providing a modification of an original language pack as a DEB package using Replaces clause?

[08:22] <celthunder> josuf107: pm?

[08:22] <celthunder> ok pm me any time always on
[08:22] <Reign_> celthunder: tried that. got error msgs. Asks if I'm root. I was unable to find out what root was by doing a help search earlier
[08:23] <celthunder> Reign_: sudo su -
[08:23] <celthunder> Reign_: after that you should be at a # sign...run the command from there
[08:23] <Reign_> hold on, back up (am having serious problems with this computer's speed, making this even more difficult)
[08:24] <MethedMan> where to go for html php questions?
[08:24] <celthunder> MohammadAG: what's the question though i suspect #php...if it's basic i can help you
[08:24] <Reign_> celthunder: start at the beginning, please, I am at a terminal prompt
[08:24] <celthunder> well 99 percent of php/html is basic but...you get the idea
[08:24] <celthunder> Reign_: sudo su -
[08:25] <ActionParsnip> Reign_: sudo -i
[08:25] <celthunder> Reign_: after that it'll ask you for a password you type it in (it won't show you)
[08:25] <celthunder> Reign_: then apt-get install mplayer (or vlc if you want but...i prefer mplayer)
[08:25] <Reign_> celthunder: I have root@(insert comp name here)

[08:29] <Reign_> celthunder: two of what?
[08:29] <novitololo> Hello, what's the best I can do to create a Windows partition under Ubuntu?
[08:29] <ActionParsnip> ac001: ask away
[08:30] <apporc> novitololo: maybe gparted.
[08:30] <jbicha> !gparted | novitololo
[08:30] <novitololo> gparted
[08:30] <novitololo> alright
[08:30] <Snicers-Home> celthunder,  ##php : Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> novitololo: ntfsprogs may do it but I recommend you use windows
[08:30] <celthunder> Snicers-Home: /msg nickserv register <pass> <email> then join it
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> novitololo: you can make the partition in gparted, then format it under windows
[08:30] <novitololo> thanks :)
[08:30] <Reign_> celthunder: did sudo su- and than the apt-get mplayer
[08:30] <novitololo> alright
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> novitololo: remember, ntfs is proprietary to microsoft
[08:31] <novitololo> what does that mean?
[08:31] <ac001> ActionParsnip I can't figure out how to disable the clicking of the touchpad on my laptop...there is no setting for that in the mouse control panel
[08:32] <ac001> ActionParsnip do you happen to know how I can disable it?
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> ac001: what make and model laptop?? Kinda important information wouldn't you say...
[08:32] <celthunder> Reign_: ok then mplayer -fs /dev/<dvddrive>
[08:32] <celthunder> ac001: is it synaptics?

[08:33] <Reign_> celthunder: syntax error near unexpected token 'newline'
[08:33] <jbicha> ActionParsnip: switch to the Touchpad tab and uncheck "Enabled mouse clicks with touchpad"
[08:33] <celthunder> ac001: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf edit that file
[08:33] <fmntf> Hi. I installed natty (root partition + home encrypted partition). I installed apache2 and configurated a website which is in /home. Apache gives "permission denied" even if there are permission. May it be related to the encrypted filesystem?
[08:33] <jbicha> ac001: switch to the Touchpad tab and uncheck "Enabled mouse clicks with touchpad"
[08:33] <ActionParsnip> jbicha: wrong target dude ;)
[08:33] <jbicha> sorry
[08:34] <html_inprogress> hi yall
[08:34] <ac001> celthunder what is the command to give me admin rights to edit it?
[08:34] <cjaredrun> hi html_inprogress
[08:34] <Reign_> UGH. This is reminding me of doing HTML help chat in the 90s. I had a teenager who could understand frames but not copy and paste
[08:34] <celthunder> fmntf: more likely its due to it can't read your home dir you using userdir addon or something else if something elsemount -o bind /home/user/folder /somethingapachecanread
[08:34] <Reign_>  celthunder: syntax error near unexpected token 'newline'
[08:34] <celthunder> ac001: sudo su -

[08:35] <Reign_> ugh, found
[08:35] <celthunder> xskydevilx: mkdir -p
[08:36] <celthunder> Reign_: just install vlc type vlc at the command line and open the dvd it gives you a pretty menu even to do it from
[08:36] <tenochslb> How do i report a bug related to unmounting flash drives?
[08:36] <Reign_> celthunder: retype what you wanted me to put in... I had an error of some sort. I tried to retype. Can't find in this chart room. My attempted corrections are not working
[08:37] <luite2> does anyone know where ufw stores its rules?
[08:37] <celthunder> Reign_: apt-get install vlc
[08:37] <cjaredrun> tenochslb http://www.ubuntu.com/community/report-problem
[08:37] <novitololo> ActionParsnip: Once I've gparted, I restart Ubuntu and boot from the live cd, create a ntfs partition right?
[08:37] <celthunder> luite2: ? if ufw is just a front end to iptables iptables-save > file
[08:37] <ac001> celthunder I can't find that folder in X11...I'm in Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu...does that make a difference?
[08:37] <shatly> luite2: it is in the iptables
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> ac001: or run:  gconftool-2 --set "/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/tap_to_click" --type bool falsa
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> oop
[08:38] <celthunder> ac001: shouldn't
[08:38] <tripelb> I thought that linux needed 256MB RAM but this will have less. How is this? (I wanted to giev a friend linux but I thought he didnt have enough RAM.) http://www.raspberrypi.org/  http://www.geek.com/articles/games/game-developer-david-braben-creates-a-usb-stick-pc-for-25-2011055/
[08:38] <shatly> so iptables -l i think lists them
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> ac001: or run:  gconftool-2 --set "/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/tap_to_click" --type bool false
[08:38] <Snicers-Home> Has anyone gotten Unity to work on VirtualBox?
[08:38] <luite2> shatly / celthunder: yes but they are supposed to be retained after rebooting, so they must be stored somewhere on disk, right?
[08:38] <celthunder> tripelb: i'm using 65mb with a movie open 20 browswer windows and a few file transfers
[08:38] <Viking667> Snicers-Home: haven't managed to get Ubuntu to work on it yet...
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> novitololo: you can mark it as NTFS, but it will need formatting under windows
[08:38] <Viking667> ... let alone Unity
[08:39] <celthunder> b 11
[08:39] <Reign_> celthunder: "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" and another root prompt
[08:39] <novitololo> but how can I format under Windows, if I don't have Windows installed?
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> Snicers-Home: you will need 3D accelleration enabled and most likely the guest additions installing
[08:39] <ac001> actionparsnip i ran it but it's still clicking
[08:39] <shatly> luite2: iptables
[08:39] <SuperLag> Anyone here know of any mini-PCIe wireless cards that will allow you to do "Master Mode"? I'm trying to set up a desktop box as a wireless access point.
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> ac001: ok then run gconf-editor and check the option is disabled
[08:39] <SuperLag> I've tried two Intel cards, and an Atheros card... with no luck so far.
[08:40] <luite2> shatly: hehe but then the question is, where does iptables store them?
[08:40] <ActionParsnip> ac001: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-linux/85863-trackpad-tap-click-how-disable-xubuntu-dell-latitude.html
[08:40] <princej88> exit

[08:41] <protv_> Hi I am getting very distorted audio output bothh on speakers and headhones. I checked volumes in alsamixer, all of them are set at mid levels in the slider.
[08:41] <tripelb> celthunder, will you please explain. I dont quite understand your sentence, viz: <celthunder> tripelb: "i'm using 65mb with a movie open 20 browser windows and a few file transfers" -- Movie playing? can you see youtube?  -- I forgot how much ram he has. --
[08:41] <protv_> Is there a way to reset the audio settings?
[08:41] <novitololo> ActionParsnip: Do you know any online tutorial that would help me to do this? I believe it's not easy, and I'm not an expert at all
[08:41] <Reign_> celthunder: "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" and another root prompt
[08:41] <fmntf> celthunder: I configured a vhost which has /home/user/.../... as DocumentRoot
[08:42] <tho_mas> I have a question about chromium, I'm trying to install an extention off of chrome.google.com and the site keeps telling me that I'm not running chrome and that I need to install it first, I'm running chromium and ubuntu 11.04
[08:42] <shatly> luite2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo#Saving iptables
[08:42] <fmntf> another natty installation (with single partition) works fine
[08:42] <celthunder> tripelb: i'm saying you don't need 256mb
[08:42] <celthunder> fmntf: yeah probably too restrictive permissions on /home/user
[08:42] <cjaredrun> xskydevilx: sudo mount blah.iso /media/isoimage/ -t iso9660 -o loop
[08:42] <tripelb> celthunder what is the distribution you are running?
[08:42] <Viking667> OverTheHillAndFa: hm. Tried Alt-Tab like usual?
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> protv_: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse*
[08:43] <celthunder> tripelb: archlinux
[08:43] <OverTheHillAndFa> ehm.. no. blush
[08:43] <Viking667> ActionParsnip: hah. That'll just restart pulseaudio...
[08:43] <Reign_> celthunder: I don't know what to do and its given me another root prompt
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> xskydevilx: sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/iso
[08:43] <tripelb> celthunder, can you see youtube?
[08:43] <fmntf> celthunder: but why it works with a single partition?
[08:43] <celthunder> tripelb: distro doesn't matte though theoreticaly any can work
[08:43] <celthunder> tripelb: yes
[08:43] <xskydevilx> ActionParsnip: Thanks.
[08:43] <ac001> actionparsnip do you run that in the console? (sorry for the questions...I'm really new to Linux as you can prob tell)
[08:43] <OverTheHillAndFa> Viking667: thanks a bunch :)
[08:43] <ActionParsnip> Viking667: its part of the audio settings isn't it?
[08:43] <cjaredrun> ^^ @ ActionParsnip :)
[08:44] <celthunder> Reign_: ? still nothing?? do you have libdvdcss
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> ac001: you need to use the old school xorg.conf according to that guide.Maybe someone else has a more graceful approach
[08:44] <protv_> ActionParsnip: Thanks, that worked.
[08:44] <tripelb> celthunder, this is terrific. I'll check with him. (Dear me I gave away that beautiful pristing Compaq laptop with 48MB.) You'll hear from me if you are around here. xD
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> Viking667: zing!
[08:44] <Reign_> celthunder: I installed everything the help instructions told me to. The instructions not searchable by install, DVD nor plug ins
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> protv_: no worries dude
[08:45] <neocrypter> ok Guys im at my witts end trying to get 11.04 to even boot i keep haveing the same error's after selecting ubuntu from grub, ive tried reinstalling the whole syste, reinstalling grub, wipeing my mbr and reinstalling grub to it, but nothing seems to work, after i select ubuntu its says "error can not read file" and sometimes "you must load a kernal first" normally its the first one though
[08:45] <tripelb> celthunder (correction) pristine
[08:45] <celthunder> tripelb: lol nice
[08:45] <Snicers-Home> I want to do iptables in a visual maner in gnome, what should I install?
[08:45] <Reign_> celthunder: I showed you what msg I got twice. I'm having trouble following chat and this comp has a speed problem
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> neocrypter: boot to liveCD and reinstate grub
[08:45] <neocrypter> tried that
[08:45] <celthunder> neocrypter: what did you install grub to and wheres your kernel?
[08:46] <celthunder> neocrypter: can it find your initramfs?
[08:46] <luite> oops rebooted the server that I was irssi-ing from
[08:46] <celthunder> neocrypter: what's your drive configuration and your grub.cfg
[08:46] <Reign_> celthunder: am I suppose to do something next?
[08:46] <celthunder> luite: i hate when i do that lol
[08:46] <celthunder> Reign_: i suggest you use google..
[08:47] <Viking667> luite: ugh. That's sucky
[08:47] <Reign_> celthunder: I did for about 3 hours, stopping to read stuff I didn't understand, before I found here
[08:47] <tho_mas> anyone have any idea of what I can check for my chromium question
[08:47] <Reign_> celthunder: is there something to type for it to tell me what's wrong?
[08:48] <celthunder> Reign_: did you add the nonfree repo or whatever repo ubuntu throws libdvdcss etc in?
[08:48] <Reign_> celthunder: HUH?
[08:48] <neocrypter> well i jsut ran the installer from the live cd and just let it do its, thing, well atm i just wipped my drive got rid of windows and trying a nothing but ubuntu install ,  now  ill look at all that if this works, im going to re-wipe reinstall 7 then try ubuntu agan dual booting
[08:48] <cjaredrun> tho_mas: #chromium
[08:48] <celthunder> tho_mas: chromium and chrome are two different things
[08:48] <celthunder> tho_mas: you could probably modify the plugin or extension to work in chromium pretty easily though
[08:49] <Reign_> celthunder: it said I needed 5 things. Three I had to "install" separately. I did everything it told me to.
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> tho_mas: some plugins need you to run a later version, which are you using?
[08:49] <luite> but anyway, I know how to do the iptables-save/iptables-restore manually, but those lines are not in my network config, and I cant the rules in my /etc dir, and still ufw manages to restore the rules after reboot, so I'm just wondering where it loads them from (even if it uses some other program like iptables-load to manage the actual loading)
[08:50] <luite> so it's not about how to do it, I just want to know how it works :)
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> tho_mas: what is the output of: apt-cache policy chromium-browser | head -n 2 | tail -n 1
[08:50] <Reign_> celthunder: reviewed again. Tells me to type in somthing and than my password. I try that. It doesn't work either
[08:51] <celthunder> Reign_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[08:51] <luite> yay found them, in /lib/ufw/user.rules
[08:52] <celthunder> Reign_: your question is clearlyt answered there..also that was like result 2 in google

[08:57] <ElvenArcher1> hello, somehow i'm stuk with grub and it doesn't list my windows7 anymore. if i were to restore MBR and again reinstalling grub2, would that help ?
[08:58] <celthunder> ElvenArcher1: add windows seperately it's not hard upgrading grub to grub2 isn't going to fix it
[08:58] <celthunder> ElvenArcher1: what's your hdd setup and what parition is windows on
[08:58] <Aginor> ElvenArcher1: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto for info about the most painfree way to add windows
[08:59] <ElvenArcher1> celthunder:  all in seperate partitions. windows in /dev/sda2 and ubuntu in /dev/sda3
[08:59] <celthunder> ElvenArcher1: then in grub your line should be something like root(hd0,2) chainload
[09:00] <ElvenArcher1> it didn't work
[09:00] <celthunder> i forget the chainload part but that's the idea
[09:00] <ElvenArcher1> i did it

[09:09] <satyadeep> celthunder: thanx aywayz..
[09:09] <celthunder> pratz: chmod -R 755 /tradeprocess
[09:09] <celthunder> pratz: do that and then what happens
[09:09] <tripelb> I dont know how to get to the startup stuff celthunder ActionParsnip
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: add a new item to run: transmission-gtk
[09:09] <pratz> celthunder: i did the same but facing the same problem
[09:09] <mars1> Hello
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: press ALT+F2 and start typing start    it will show itself
[09:10] <tripelb> and ubuntu help ALWAYS FAILS. wait I can google it.

[09:10] <mars1> I've made some changes to a ubuntu theme (default Radiance) and now I want to revert them. How can I reinstall the theme?
[09:10] <HypothesisFrog> Can anyone think of a reason why ALSA is producing distortion in my Left Channel but JACK isn't?
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: its one of the tools I use to help here
[09:10] <tripelb> wait, will alt-F2 give me a shell I cant get out of. AGAIN?
[09:10] <celthunder> tripelb: should be in the menus's somewhere
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: or under system -> preferences
[09:11] <celthunder> tripelb: alt f6/f7 to get back to gui
[09:11] <zus> will a 32 bit os recognise all 4 gigs of ram or will ubuntu only see 3gigs like windows did?  i have a 64 bit machin but wonder if 32 os is better to get
[09:11] <tripelb> I keep getting stuck in that. --- I know I looked in preferences. I ususally dont ask before looking.
[09:11] <mars1> Anyone?
[09:11] <celthunder> zus: go for 64 if you can...though yes it'd see all 4gb or it should as it uses PAE
[09:11] <ThinkingDragon> Hi, i'm on a clean install of Ubuntu 11.04, installed the Nvidia drivers already. Nvidia-Settings reports temperature of 80F, and using ANY app raises it to 100F, I can barely do anything before it shuts down from overheating, suggestions anyone?
[09:11] <celthunder> zus: no reason not to go 64 bit though...
[09:12] <pratz> celthunder: this is the output http://pastebin.com/7Hzx618p
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: or if you run:  gedit ~/.config/autostart/transmission-gtk.desktop         and add this text, it will run. http://paste.ubuntu.com/604002/
[09:13] <zus> celthunder,  this is a new machine for me never had a 64bit tbh. wot is the difference newbie question but never needed to worry till now. the desktop is 32bit the laptop is 64bit
[09:13] <luite> ThinkingDragon: I had the same problem and "solved" it by manually limiting the clock speed of the gpu to the lowest setting. By the way, did you mean 100C, because 100 Fahrenheit is quite cool for a GPU :)
[09:13] <Ek|mu5> anyone have WPA2 issues on 11.04???
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> Ek|mu5: not all adapters can use wpa2 under linux
[09:14] <FauxFaux> I have Unity getting stuck open, like https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/763275 (but not like #769198), which is closed/fixed but I'm on a newer version; am I expected to re-open it, or raise a new issue?
[09:15] <ThinkingDragon> luite: yeah i meant C. how do i limit the clock speed... i read on the forums about nvclock, but when i try it says my card is not supported (Nvidia GeForce 210)
[09:15] <celthunder> pratz: ls -al /tradeprocess and /tradeprocess/media please

[09:15] <tripelb> Uh, I admit DumbNess. There is is now in preferences - Startup Applications. -- Apologies for asking.  (skip story)
[09:15] <ActionParsnip> Ek|mu5: doesn't mean you adapter can use it, the access point is just relaying what it can do
[09:16] <tripelb> / and this http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/07/automatically-start-programs-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-ubuntu-starts/ shows only 6 things under preferences. I have 30. - I have no idea what the diference is.
[09:17] <eitch0000> Hi guys. Can someone explain to me how the motd is updated on ubuntu server in 10.04? The update-motd package is not installed, there is no cronjob but still something is updating it. I'm lost =)
[09:17] <gistian> Hi guys: They said that .7z has a high compress ratio, But why so many people and file use .tar??
[09:17] <s0u][ight_> does evolution mail support exchange 2010?
[09:18] <celthunder> s0u][ight_: yes it should though i doubt it supports ActiveSync/PUSH notifications
[09:18] <pratz> celthunder: here http://pastebin.com/Q8VRXrfH
[09:18] <luite> ThinkingDragon: one moment, I'll check my config file. a disadvantage is that the gpu is then really locked to that speed, it will not dynamically increase the frequency anymore. this is probably not a problem with unity or the desktop, but will limit performance in games
[09:18] <Ek|mu5> ActionParsnip, the thing is this worked on 10.10 but had to compile the VIA VT6656 drivers
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> gistian: you can put extra options on many compression commands and get different levels of compression
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> Ek|mu5: sounds like a regression bug then
[09:19] <eitch0000> gistian, 7z does not store ownership and permissions
[09:19] <celthunder> aha pratz so your web dir is within your home dir? i suggest you use userdir addon then
[09:20] <s0u][ight_> celthunder: it does complain about the version of exchange used :|
[09:20] <gistian> ok, I got it ,Thank you very much
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> gistian: gzip -9 will compress a lot but will take longest
[09:20] <kromagg> I have some trouble getting unity to work in natty with an ati dual screen setup. There's this bit of the desktop that is misaligned and doesn't get redrawn properly. Anyone know if similar bugs are reported yet? (doesn't seem to be the one mentioned in release notes)
[09:20] <Ek|mu5> ActionParsnip, it actually authenticates and associates with the AP then drops with: "Scanning [<hex chars>] not found, disconnected !" in dmesg
[09:20] <celthunder> pratz: or mount -o bind ~/www /var/www
[09:20] <gistian> ActionParsnip: Thanks a lot
[09:21] <luite> ThinkingDragon: this is the relevant section of my xorg.conf, it works with the nvidia binary driver: http://hpaste.org/46421/etcx11xorgconf
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> Ek|mu5: tried disabling ipv6 (assuming you don't use it).I've seen it break people's connection
[09:21] <celthunder> pratz: and then use that dir instead default permissions on your home are restrictive but likely you want to keep it that way
[09:21] <tripelb> ActionParsnip> tripelb: or if you run:  gedit ~/.config/autostart/transmission-gtk.desktop         and add this text, it will run. http://paste.ubuntu.com/604002/  [09:22] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: READ what I wrote. I gave the location.....

[09:22] <Ek|mu5> ActionParsnip, IPv6 is set to Ignore on network-manager
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: the command is also outlined in the pastebin
[09:22] <ThinkingDragon> luite: thanks i'll give it a try...
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> Ek|mu5: you can disable it in the kernel too with the bootoption:  ipv6.disable=1
[09:22] <celthunder> s0u][ight_: use imap
[09:23] <celthunder> s0u][ight_: or pop3
[09:23] <Ek|mu5> ActionParsnip, Okay I'll try that. Thanks
[09:23] <luite> ThinkingDragon: is it a laptop by the way?
[09:23] <larz> can someone please give me some quick help
[09:23] <tripelb> action, looking.

[09:24] <ActionParsnip> hi come_to_get_ban
[09:25] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, I dont understand that. the pastebin is a list of varname=value statements I am to save in (but where) in a file named transmission-gtk.desktop  --- this is all I know. there must be soemthing I dont know that applies. ??
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> eitch0000: do you mean when you ssh in?
[09:25] <come_to_get_ban> ActionParsnip: Do you know why I gave this nickname?
[09:25] <come_to_get_ban> have*
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: read the second line, that details the command executed.
[09:25] <eitch0000> ActionParsnip, yes
[09:25] <ThinkingDragon> luite: no, its a small desktop that i use as a HTPC
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> come_to_get_ban: it doesn't interest me, it is family friendly
[09:25] <tripelb> the second line is type=application    -- I dont get it.

[09:26] <crash1hd> hey all I am trying to upgrade my video card nvidia drivers and I have one that is on here but I am getting Unable to correct problems you have held broken packages
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: can you use a pastebinn to give the output of:  sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade
[09:26] <ThinkingDragon> luite: btw, the overheating never happened when windows was installed, so it cant be a hardware problem
[09:27] <sockbanana> hey guise, ubernoob question: I'm trying to install a java program. The instructions say "1. Open a Terminal 2. sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre 3.get the latest install package from http://www.i2p2.de/download 4.java -jar i2pinstall-x.x.x.exe"          I'm good until step 4. Can anyone explain how I do this?
[09:27] <eitch0000> thank you ActionParsnip
[09:27] <thegoodcushion> How fast are the updates for 11.04 coming?
[09:27] <larz> celthunder: i have a friend that is having network issues
[09:27] <thegoodcushion> is it a case of daily updates available?
[09:27] <tramm> ActionParsnip: Thanks! I think I found my /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png at /usr/bin/ubiquity-dm... :D I hope it's the one!
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> thegoodcushion: not bad here, but I use apt-fast ;)
[09:27] <celthunder> larz: explain the issue lol
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> tramm: sweet
[09:27] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, yeah is there a way to do that in terminal?
[09:27] <luite> ThinkingDragon: well it could still be. the windows 7 aero desktop doesn't tax the gpu as much as the ubuntu unity desktop in my experience
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: you can install pastebinit and pastebin from there
[09:28] <larz> celthunder: he can seem to connect to any network (wired or wireless) yet the live cd works
[09:28] <ThinkingDragon> luite: i tried unity, ubuntu classic, ubuntu classic (safe mode), etc. it happans always
[09:28] <celthunder> larz: ifconfig -a does he see his network devices
[09:28] <larz> celthunder:  it is a fresh install too just wid updates
[09:28] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, its already installed
[09:29] <larz> celthunder: yes eth0 comes up
[09:29] <come_to_get_ban> ActionParsnip:  I do one site www.q5.ru on ubuntu+ehcp+joomla second site have online translation from Ip cam(it have onley rtsp:// stream, and I decode it with vlc -v --decode)... it'is you bissenes?
[09:29] <come_to_get_ban> in you bissines*
[09:29] <celthunder> larz: ok so ifconfig eth0 <ip> netmask <network mask>
[09:29] <luite> ThinkingDragon: hmm, it might be a driver problem with the fan controller or something
[09:29] <celthunder> larz: then route add default gw <gateway ip>
[09:30] <celthunder> larz: echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" > /etc/resolv.conf
[09:30] <mike-w> how to disable touchpad in terminal by a command
[09:30] <luite> ThinkingDragon: does it actually have a fan?
[09:31] <ThinkingDragon> luite: i also think its something to do with the drivers... so i tried uninstalling the one from Ubuntu's repositories, and installing the ones from the PPA rep mentioned in the BinaryDriverHowto help page
[09:31] <larz> celthunder: sorry to sound dumb but is it entered "<ip>" or an acctual number
[09:31] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, how do I use pastebinit
[09:31] <ThinkingDragon> luite: yes it does have a fan
[09:31] <celthunder> larz: <> indicates something you should change to actual info nstuff not in <> type as is
[09:31] <crazydip> how do i change the unity laucher show/hide delay?
[09:32] <celthunder> crash1hd: pipe your ouput to pastebinit and it'll give you a link
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: you should be able to pipe the commands to pastebinit
[09:32] <larz> celthunder:  though so how do i find his ip n network mask (data to enter)
[09:32] <siva> hello
[09:33] <tripelb> the second line is type=application    -- I dont get it. ActionParsnip
[09:33] <luite> ThinkingDragon: oh by the way, the xorg.conf settings I mentioned only work if your gpu has multiple performance levels. you can check in nvidia-settings under GPU 0 / PowerMizer
[09:33] <celthunder> larz: if it's a home network and he doesn't know it's likelt <IP_ADDRESS> ...the network mask just helps tell you what subnet you are in
[09:33] <siva> the top right panel icons on ubu 11.04 is inactive except shut down option
[09:33] <crash1hd> ok so do I do #<-- is terminal #pastebinit || sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade or #sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade || pastebinit
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: find the word:  Exec   in the pastebin
[09:33] <siva> is it a bug
[09:33] <luite> ThinkingDragon: my 8600m-gt (laptop) has 3 levels, but my geforce 9400 on-board (htpc) only has one
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: the command is:  transmission-gtk
[09:34] <siva> icant click on bluetooth or speaker etc
[09:34] <larz> celthunder:  so ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[09:34] <MK``> Will Ubuntu get confused if a harddrive has more than one extended partition on it?
[09:35] <celthunder> larz: no
[09:35] <eitch0000> ActionParsnip, that does not quite explain how the motd gets updated. Is it a cronjob, or something that happens on ssh login?
[09:35] <MK``> It seems to be a sort of wild-west thing to do that other OSes do not handle well
[09:35] <ThinkingDragon> luite: in Nvidia-Settings it doesnt say how many performance levels it has... but it says its set to "Performance Level 0" i'll try it anyway and see how it goes
[09:35] <celthunder> larz: ifconfig eth0 <HIS IP ADDRESS HERE> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> eitch0000: seems to be stored in /etc/motd.tail    maybe, not sure otherwise
[09:36] <luite> ThinkingDragon: bah that's what my htpc has too. it still does some dynamic clocking, but I have no idea how this config influences this
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> eitch0000: may help http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/change-openssh-sshd-server-login-banner.html
[09:36] <larz> celthunder: dont think he has been assigned a internal ip address
[09:36] <luite> ThinkingDragon: my laptop also has performance level 1 and 2, the config manually locks it to 0
[09:37] <larz> celthunder: it is the empty cone symbol up top right
[09:37] <celthunder> larz: yeah pick one not given out by dhcp
[09:37] <larz> celthunder:  oh i get u
[09:37] <ThinkingDragon> luite: ok, thanks for all the info. i'm going to go try it now
[09:38] <bullgard4> 'man apt-get': "update is used to resynchronize the package index files from their sources." What are the filenames and pathes of these "package index files"?
[09:38] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, ok :) figured that out here is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/604009/
[09:38] <larz> what was the gate way command?
[09:38] <tripelb> Could not find the file /home/hara1/.config/auto…/transmission-gtk.desktop.  -- ActionParsnip Where does it expect the file to be? To-Where should I save it?
[09:39] <larz> celthunder: what was the command after that?
[09:39] <celthunder> larz: route add default gw <gateway ip (his router>
[09:40] <red2kic> bullgard4: If I have to guess, I'd say /var/cache/apt/
[09:40] <celthunder> larz: then echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" > /etc/resolv.conf
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: that is the file, the file is /home/hara1/.config/autostart/transmission-gtk.desktop
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: run:   gedit /home/hara1/.config/auto?/transmission-gtk.desktop    copy the pastebin text I made, paste to gedit, save the file and close gedit. Its literally JUST that
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: copying text from a pastebin to an empty file
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: looks fine then, are you still getting issues?
[09:42] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, excuse me. Mystified but it's in ~/.config/autostart/transmission-gtk.desktop  -- I foind out because "hovering" with my mouse over the title in gedit brough up a floating yellow box that told me so. --- THANKS.  -- one ay I will learn the details.
[09:42] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, yes
[09:43] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, BTW I found a terrific webpage teaching me details about linux. It's what I was looking for and it's the level I like.
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: thats all that'startup applications' thing does, it makes those files for you. You can also symlink to the items in /usr/share/applications    and achieve the same
[09:43] <red2kic> tripelb: Link? :)
[09:43] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, when I upgraded to 11.04 it removed part of the nvidia drivers and wouldnt boot I had to boot into recovery mode and set xterm to default
[09:43] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, this page Introduction to Linux - http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/index.html
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: then remove nvidia-common   then you should be using the open driver. You can always run:  sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf    add the text:   blacklist nvidia     press X, press y, press enter   then reboot
[09:45] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, I see you repeated things I had already done. I just didnt "get" that it had already saved the file by the way you had me start gedit. -- Got it now.
[09:45] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, then when I checked the additional driver it says its there but disabled when I go to activate it I receive the error Unable to correct problems you have held broken packages
[09:45] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, double thanx
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: np :)
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: sorry, ctrl+x, y, enter
[09:46] <johnrace> hello
[09:46] <crash1hd> hmm I dont seem to have a nvidia.conf file
[09:47] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, I have a nvidia-graohics-drivers.conf file
[09:47] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, what does blacklist do?
[09:47] <Tetsuo55> is there a way to quickly minimize all windows in unity?
[09:47] <tripelb> TIL From a Palmtop with 2 MB of memory to a petabyte storage cluster with hundreds of nodes: add or remove the appropriate packages and Linux fits all.
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: that'll do, just make sure it has that line so the module 'nvidia' doesn't load
[09:47] <Bane99> is there someone who could help me with an installation question in PM?
[09:47] <Viking667> quick question - in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, does anyone else have a --natty.list file?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> Tetsuo55: super + d
[09:47] <johnrace> is anyone know the diffrent betwen slackware with ubuntu
[09:48] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, could it be that because its already in the blacklist that I cant remove or add it?
[09:48] <come_to_get_ban> [09:49] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: possibly, if it has a hash at the start of the line then it isn't enforced as it is seen as a comment
[09:49] <Tetsuo55> ActionParsnip: what is the super button? windows flag?
[09:49] <Tetsuo55> ActionParsnip:  ok it is, thanks
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> Tetsuo55: yes, one is superL and the other is superR
[09:49] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, it doesnt
[09:50] <Bane99> anyone willing to help a noob install ubuntu?
[09:50] <Bane99> ;)
[09:51] <Bane99> =/
[09:51] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, this was it http://paste.ubuntu.com/604012/
[09:52] <Carpe|Diem> In kubuntu 11.04 I am unable to get the BCM4212 wireless module working, so far i have installed b43-fwcutter without succes. I cannot bring wlan0 online.
[09:53] <larz> celthunder:  is how do u know the defult gateway?
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: nvidia-173 isn't a module name, remove the number and hyphen, nvidia is the name of the module
[09:53] <Bane99> i'm just having an issue determining which drive is the drive i want to install ubuntu on
[09:53] <Bane99> and where to install the bootloader
[09:53] <ASrock> Hey, I messed something up when I installed Ubuntu, for some reason my region is set up as UK and whenever I google anything it brings up UK pages. How can I set my region to the US?
[09:53] <Atharva>  How can I access Ubuntu Shared Folders on Windows XP (Using LAN)    ?
[09:54] <Bane99> nvm i'll ask tomorrow
[09:54] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, will this allow me to reinstall the new driver?
[09:54] <Carpe|Diem> Atharva: by using SMB on ubuntu
[09:54] <larz> j
[09:55] <bullgard4> red2kic: This includes 2 directories and 2 .bin files. I cannot decide which one is correct. I'd like to know it more precisely.
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: yes, it doesn't affect the package manager in any way, it just stops the kernel loading the named modules
[09:55] <larz> celthunder: how do i find the defualt gateway?
[09:55] <Atharva> I can access all shared pc's on Ubuntu but cannot access Ubuntu on other pc's with Windows XP
[09:55] <eitch0000> ActionParsnip, I finally found out what the situation with motd is, it is a PAM module.
[09:55] <new_kid1> larz: ifconfig
[09:56] <Boothk> Bane99: iirc, Ubuntu refers to drives in  the fashion hda, hda1 etc for hard drives and sda, sda1, sdb etc for "special" drives. I'm probably misinformed about this though
[09:56] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, ok I will give it a try
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> Atharva: in windows if you run:   \\servername\sharename      you will see the share
[09:56] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, thanks :)
[09:56] <Boothk> bah, he already left
[09:56] <larz> celthunder: under what in ifconfig?

[09:59] <red2kic> bullgard4: I'm guessing it's pkgcache.bin -- but I can be wrong. Also, in "archives" -- All debs are downloaded to that directory. md5sum, list of files in a package, etc goes in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ -- That's all I know.
[09:59] <jpgnizak> Hi everyone, I just got 11.04 running, 1.99 grub, the 'startup manager' doesn't seem to work anymore to change the default boot. Does anyone have a nice simple, elegant solution to changing the default boot? Thanks

[10:09] <Wizek> hi there
[10:09] <Boothk> I've recently completed a build script for Acer Aspire One machines, setting permissions/programs etc for UNR 9.10. It works, but it does seem a bit slow. Anyone got any ideas on speeding it up?
[10:10] <larz> my friends computer isnt recognizing any connections (wired or wireless) Info: eth0 comes up in ifconfig and it is a fresh install on hard drive. Live cd works with both wired n wireless
[10:11] <red> No matter what Indicator applets I install in Natty, none of them show up -- any ideas?
[10:11] <Wizek> I've tried to install Ubuntu 11.04 with wubi, but without luck. I get this error after resterting: Try (hd0,0) NTFS5: no wubildr
[10:11] <Wizek> Any ideas as to how can I fix this?
[10:11] <red> Could this be some leftover from gnome panel in Gnome Shell (did not have indicator applet in it, but in Avant Window Navigator)

[10:26] <pratz> celthunder: please guide me dude, i am really confused.
[10:26] <pratz> celthunder: now if my directory structure is wrong then should i move my project to /var/www  ??
[10:26] <kowa> where to find command list for ubuntu?
[10:29] <linux> Ok
[10:30] <Name141> If you use a flash drive, and update Ubuntu on it.. Will it install the updated packages from there on when you use the installer ?
[10:31] <Name141> Or will it revert back to the old packages when you go to install it on to the hard drive?
[10:34] <pratz> celthunder: please guide me dude , should i change my directory to /var/www ??
[10:35] <beli> pratz: what are you planning to do?
[10:36] <pratz> beli: i am trying to run apache server but i am getting permissions error from apache
[10:37] <pratz> as celthunder said that my project directory was in my home directory, that is what i am asking him can i change my directory to /var/www
[10:37] <captceline> hello everyone, i just upgraded to natty because it's been pestering me to for a while, i absolutely can't deal with the new interface, it seems there is no way to downgrade, is there a way to switch the gnome interface back to what it used to be..?
[10:37] <k_sze> Writing something that is able to communicate with a device file under /dev/ is tantamount to writing a device driver, if I understand correctly, right?
[10:37] <beli> pratz: you define the webroot in the apache server config...ALL your sites have to be under that webroot
[10:38] <pratz> beli:  so should that directory be in /var/www ??
[10:39] <gartral> !gnome3 | captceline
[10:39] <gartral> !gnome | captceline
[10:40] <captceline> wonderful :/
[10:40] <k_sze> Or is the device driver abstracted by the device file?
[10:41] <metbsd> how to get ipod to work
[10:41] <captceline> i wouldn't mind putting up with it until the bugs are fixed but it's completely unusable with a dual screen
[10:42] <beli> pratz: /var/www ist common for all debian based distros i know
[10:42] <captceline> is there a way to stop the menus from being put into the panel osx-style? is there a way to not have an identical panel on both of my screens? is there a way to choose which screen unity appears on? those options would at least make it usable but i can't find any options for the panel anywhere now..
[10:43] <beli> pratz: so you create folders for your webstuff under /var/www like /var/www/pratz-site/...
[10:43] <pratz> beli k i will try that now
[10:43] <beli> pratz: and it needs group readable permissions for the webserver user
[10:43] <karthick87> How to mount a windows drive permanently ?
[10:43] <beli> partz: www-data for ubuntu
[10:43] <captceline> also.. if i run gnome-panel i get my old panel back.. can't i disable the new one? :/
[10:44] <beli> s/partz/pratz/
[10:45] <beli> karthick87: read about mount and mtab
[10:46] <karthick87> beli: The window system is connected to a domain.
[10:46] <Carpe|Diem> Any ideas on how to get BCM4312 working in kubuntu 11.04?
[10:46] <beli> karthick87: so you want to map a windows network drive, not a partition
[10:47] <captceline> please somebody help :(
[10:48] <karthick87> beli: Yes
[10:48] <beli> karthick87: http://mixeduperic.com/linux/how-to-map-windows-nework-drive-in-ubuntu.html
[10:49] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: i agree, gnome3 sux. I switched to KDE because of it
[10:49] <beli> karthick87: and read about smbmount     exec it on boot time
[10:49] <beli> Carpe|Diem: what about fluxbox? ;)
[10:49] <mateusz> Hi
[10:49] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: is it gnome3 that is the problem? according to apt i'm not even running gnome3 and it doesn't look like gnome3 does on the gnome website
[10:49] <mateusz> how to turn off all those eye candy things in Ubuntu 11.04
[10:49] <mateusz> ?
[10:50] <mateusz> I would like to have old gnome 2.32 desktop
[10:50] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: although it does look just like the screenshots on the ubuntu website
[10:50] <beli> mateusz: so define that you want to use gnome2 on login screen
[10:50] <Carpe|Diem> oh, captceline , i thought you were speaking about gnome3
[10:50] <mateusz> beli, oh.. am I not using gnome2?
[10:50] <mateusz> beli, I thought it is still gnome2
[10:50] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: i don't know, i'm using the default for natty narwhal.. with unity and all that stuff
[10:51] <mateusz> beli, I did not install gnome3 just upgraded to 11.04 Ubuntu
[10:51] <beli> mateusz: 11.04 is using unity
[10:51] <syockit> I'm using Intel GMA 950 for my graphics, and my glxinfo gives me SGI as the client glx vendor. Does that mean I'll never ever never ever get hardware-accelerated Flash?
[10:51] <mateusz> beli, ok thanks... this compositing things are slow and annoying
[10:51] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: that is gnome3
[10:51] <beli> mateusz: define "eye-candy-stuff"....... :) ther are many new things with 11.04
[10:51] <Carpe|Diem> i think
[10:51] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: it doesn't look like the gnome3 screenshots on the gnome website..
[10:52] <mateusz> beli, yeah the compositing, shadows, slow but eye-candy transparent alt+tab
[10:52] <beli> mateusz: System>preferences>appearance>"Visual Effects" Select no effects.
[10:52] <mateusz> beli, where to find it in unity ?
[10:52] <lgp171188> Hi, there was a lot of talk about Wayland in Ubuntu 11.04. Is it used by default in the release?
[10:52] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: open Synaptic package manager and search for gnome
[10:52] <Carpe|Diem> see what version you have installed
[10:53] <mateusz> beli, no such a thing there, just theme,background,fonts
[10:53] <mateusz> beli, that's all
[10:53] <mateusz> beli, or is it not available for unity?
[10:53] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: looks like 2.32
[10:53] <syockit> lgp171188, not installed by default
[10:54] <Carpe|Diem> oh rly?
[10:54] <syockit> lgp171188, my aptitude said so
[10:54] <thomas001> Hi, what is the intention behind ubuntu's /usr/lib filesystem layout? there seem to be some libraries in /usr/lib directly and some in /usr/lib/x86-64-linux-gnu. why are there 2 places for libraries?
[10:54] <mateusz> beli, ok I am going to switch to gnome2 this is too slow and reminds me gnome3 horror... a desktop completly not usable for work
[10:54] <mateusz> beli, thanks
[10:54] <captceline> also, as someone said to me earlier, "Gnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are EXPERIMENTAL and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and safe downgrading is not possible."
[10:54] <captceline> so i don't think gnome3 is the problem
[10:54] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: seems like im wrong than...anyways, the maxosx style menu bar at the top is *very* annoyinf
[10:55] <Carpe|Diem> annoying*
[10:55] <captceline> yeah. is there really no way of disabling it?
[10:55] <Carpe|Diem> i haven't found it myself
[10:55] <Carpe|Diem> :/
[10:55] <syockit> Carpe|Diem, that is part of the unity experience. Maybe it comes with unity's panel
[10:55] <lgp171188> syockit: Thanks :-) Since even with Wayland running, it would require X to run on top of it ( from what I have read, Wayland is still a project with a lot of scope for growth and improvement). So wanted to clarify :)
[10:55] <captceline> can't we just remove unity :/
[10:55] <Carpe|Diem> sudo apt-get remove unity ? xD
[10:56] <captceline> i'm actually going to try it
[10:56] <syockit> lgp171188, no support for X11 protocol, so many apps would still need rewrites
[10:56] <ugliefrog> anyone here use xbmc with mythbox?...if so i need help...channel with 179 users about mythbox offered me AWWW and thats it :)
[10:56] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: http://www.linuxcompatible.org/news/story/disable_unity_interface_and_restore_original_interface_in_ubuntu_1104.html
[10:56] <syockit> captceline, when logging in (at the screen where you choose your user name and enter password), is there no choice to log in as old gnome?
[10:57] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: yeah i tried that already, it doesn't change anything really
[10:57] <captceline> syockit: i'll try
[10:57] <ramshot> I found many things in Unity great, but I'm baffled by the amount of features it seems to be flat out missing, and the lack of configurability...
[10:57] <Carpe|Diem> ramshot: indeed
[10:58] <hugobugo> Hello! Im trying to dump the accent thats available for ASPELL. Using > aspell dump dicts < I get the language files, i know theres accents named "brittish" for example. Anyone know? I prefer not to cat the aspell dir for this.  Ahwell, can't really complain, classic mode works perfect and I'm actually having less work related issues with 11.04 than I had with 10.10
[10:59] <captceline> Carpe|Diem: choose ubuntu classic at the login screen as syockit suggested, everything back to normal, win
[10:59] <Carpe|Diem> captceline: nice
[10:59] <Carpe|Diem> :D
[11:00] <Carpe|Diem> gonna eat now
[11:00] <Carpe|Diem> bbl
[11:00] <captceline> thanks guys.. that was truly terrifying
[11:00] <captceline> cyall
[11:01] <syockit> ramshot, I think there's a similar launcher for gnome2. maybe gnome-do?
[11:01] <ramshot> syockit: Thanks, I'll check it out. Does it have a search like the one in Unity?
[11:02] <headnotfound> hey
[11:02] <syockit> ramshot, yes. It's what I used when Unity didn't exist. The search has to be activated using a hotkey (I think I used Win+Space)
[11:05] <thomas001> hmm okay seems that /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu is for some kind of multi arch support. but when why is there a /usr/lib32 and not a /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu? and why aren't all libraries moved to x86_64-linux-gnu...
[11:08] <Feyisayo> Hi everyone. I'm dual booting Natty and Windows Vista. On booting to Natty, I often get an unreadable screen with coloured lines. However, I stumbled on a workaround - if I put my computer sleep (Fn + F1) on my laptop. The screen becomes ok. Thought someone might find this useful
[11:09] <ugliefrog> can someone decipher this error in a log file for me WARNING | mythbox.core | db.py | MainThread | Line 232 | Host frogpondHQ could not be mapped to a backend. Returning master backend frogpondhq instead
[11:16] <mozeee> hi. i just install openssh-server and my friends have a ssh access to my computer but how can i install FTP and HTTP server on my computer? which packages i have to install?
[11:17] <mozeee> i'm sure that there would be the packages of HTTP and FTP but i don't know them?
[11:18] <OO2u> Hi, has anyone EDID.bin for LCD with natove resolution 1680x1050_60? If you have this file please tell me with pm.
[11:19] <DX099> hello all, how do i prevent ubuntu from broadcasting my hostname troughout the LAN ?
[11:19] <Viking667> And I'm wondering where the heck to get rid of a "Invalid EDID...." constantly turning up for me.
[11:19] <html_inprogress> where can i get red hat ?
[11:19] <OO2u> Viking667, Invalid EDID... same problem
[11:20] <Viking667> html_inprogress: redhat.com, I'm assuming. Pull out your wallet though, it'll cost ya.
[11:20] <OO2u> Viking667, what kind of monitor you have?
[11:20] <Viking667> I've got two. Both CRT
[11:20] <Viking667> both 15", one hanging off the DVI port through an adapter, the other's off the VGA port.
[11:20] <html_inprogress> ok ,thanks  but is there a free version
[11:20] <Viking667> Video card's ATI HD3450
[11:20] <bullgard4> man apt.conf: "apt.conf is the main configuration file for the APT suite of tools, but by far not the only place changes to options can be made." How does this fit to '~$ find / -name 'apt.conf' 2>/dev/null; /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/apt.conf'?
[11:21] <Viking667> html_inprogress: yeah, look for Fedora, or if you want something closer, look for CentOS
[11:21] <Viking667> they're both free.
[11:21] <Viking667> ... but neither have any RedHat branding in.
[11:22] <Kizza> so is the new ubuntu out yet??
[11:22] <OO2u> Viking667, to solve this problem we need to find Edid.bin files for our type of monitors
[11:22] <html_inprogress> yes Kizza,
[11:22] <mozeee> i just installed the openssh-server in i want to install FTP and HTTP packages as well but would you tell me the name of the packages?
[11:23] <luite> there are many ftp and http servers
[11:23] <DX099> any hint ?
[11:23] <mozeee> luite: the famouse ones?
[11:23] <MaRk-I> !ftp > mozeee
[11:23] <luite> mozeee: I personally use vsftpd and apache2
[11:26] <Lee_Kila> you ren ?
[11:27] <Kizza> whats a good decomprion tool
[11:27] <Hedgehog456> Kizza: what type of archive do you want to decompress?
[11:27] <Kizza> 7z
[11:27] <Kizza> and rar
[11:27] <Hedgehog456> hmm
[11:28] <Hedgehog456> packages 7zip and unrar, respectively
[11:28] <ramshot> syockit: Thanks for the gnome do -hint, exactly what I needed. :)
[11:28] <Hedgehog456> Kizza: packages 7zip and unrar, respectively
[11:28] <syockit> !7zip
[11:29] <Hedgehog456> I use p7zip-full and unrar :P
[11:29] <Hedgehog456> so
[11:29] <Hedgehog456> sudo apt-get install unrar
[11:30] <Hedgehog456> sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
[11:30] <Hedgehog456> That's how I do it :D
[11:30] <Kizza> kk ty
[11:30] <JediMaster> hi guys, I've got pptpd setup on a ubuntu natty machine with samba setup on it too. I've firewalled down samba to one IP address on the internet and also the ppp local IP address of the same internet machine. I've been doing some bandwidth tests and directly over the internet public IP via samba (to a windows server 2008 r2 server) I can transfer a file through windows file sharing at 36MBytes/sec.
[11:30] <JediMaster> As soon as I use the local ppp IP address this drops to 2.2MBytes/sec. I can't figure out why, cpu usage on the windows server is about 5% on one of 8 cores, on the Ubuntu side it's showing as 0% cpu usage, what's slowing it down?
[11:30] <Hedgehog456> Or you can just use file-roller
[11:30] <Hedgehog456> It's very visually appealing
[11:34] <syockit> Hedgehog456, I thought file-roller need both of them installed for 7z/rar support?
[11:35] <chiiiiiiz> hello
[11:35] <chiiiiiiz> I need help on gnome3... is it the right chan?
[11:36] <DX099> ubottu, sugest you to use Windows winrar with wine
[11:36] <Kizza> how do iinstall the java enviroment
[11:36] <Kizza> jre-6u25-linux-i586.bin
[11:36] <nesbitt> i tried installing the nvidia dev drivers on my natty installation (by running the script from nvidia) and now it won't boot.  i get to the ubuntu screen with the dots and it just waits there.  anyone know what i could try to fix it other than reinstalling? or how i might be able to get it to work?
[11:36] <Kizza> how do i use it
[11:36] <syockit> chiiiiiiz, gnome3 on ubuntu or gnome3 in general? because most users here probably do not use gnome3 as it is still experimental in Ubuntu
[11:36] <syockit> chiiiiiiz, therefore might be difficult to get support
[11:37] <DX099> kizza, i suggest you to use windows version of winrar for rar archives
[11:37] <DX099> with wine
[11:39] <crazybrain> how to connect phone through USB in Ubuntu 10.10
[11:39] <boomboorum1> Hi everybody
[11:39] <crazybrain> Its not detecting my phone
[11:40] <chiiiiiiz> syockit: gnome3 on ubuntu natty... in fact, I want to change some font size in the css, but I do not know where to look for in the gnome-shell.css file... too many sections
[11:40] <crazybrain> anyone?
[11:40] <Samo502> gotta verify something really quick, if i upgrade my windows partition(vista) to 7, it'll screw up grub? yes/no?
[11:40] <Kizza> how do i run this file jre-6u25-linux-i586.bin
[11:42] <Samo502> Kizza: i just installed mine via software center :O but to answer your question you can just run it from the terminal
[11:42] <Samo502> i believe
[11:42] <DX099> kizza, terminal "chmod +x jre..." then "./jre.."
[11:42] <syockit> Kizza, did you download from Oracle? Have you tried out the ones provided by Canonical partners first?
[11:43] <crazybrain1> h
[11:43] <boomboorum1> My system once in a while (like 2 -3 times a day) just starts over using my memory and swap to almost 2 GB. It starts suddenly and goes for like about 5 minutes. Then Releases the memory and everything starts working fine. System monitor does not show that there is much stuff being used by programs.  But it shows that IOWait is used 100%.  (thanks in advance)
[11:43] <Kizza> i installed it via the java website
[11:43] <DX099> kizza, my opinion if you're new to linux, you should just keep yourself to synaptic or apt-get
[11:43] <boomboorum1> (PS. I am using ubuntu 11.04 - gnome )
[11:43] <Kizza> so apt-get java.....
[11:44] <Samo502> boomboorum1: maybe this is a stupid question, but you don't boot with a liveCD or similar do you?

[11:48] <gedO> HEllo.  Here's the scoop: my Ubuntu computer is hooked up to an iMac. But the iMac has a 169 IP address and cannot browse the Internet. What should i do?
[11:48] <luite> mozeee: I don't think there's a separate program to see the currently logged in users in vsftpd, but you can see who logged in in the vsftpd log file in /var/log, and if you add the line setproctitle_enable=YES to /etc/vsftpd.conf, you can see them in the process list
[11:49] <Samo502> crazybrain1: i don't have a mobile phone, so i don't know, i was hoping it would be like an iphone or something like that that i've worked with in ubuntu
[11:49] <Da|Mummy> ok now who can help me figure out why one of my hdds cant be mounted?
[11:50] <alphamale> how do you install ubuntu on a usb drive where you want to preserve the data on the drive and not format it

[11:51] <jrib> Da|Mummy: "doesn't work" is too vague
[11:51] <alphamale> im trying not to use a cd because my netbook doesnt have one
[11:51] <Da|Mummy> well the option to mount isnt there in disk utility
[11:51] <Samo502> alphamale: you could back up the files to your computer, install ubntu on it and partition some off, and move your files on later
[11:51] <Samo502> ubuntu*
[11:51] <jrib> Da|Mummy: what happens when you try to mount the partition in the terminal

[11:53] <alphamale> i am running puppy as my main os on a netbook
[11:54] <Samo502> maxi__: i could help but i'm not on ubuntu to look and make sure i know what i'm doing :P
[11:54] <constl> I tried XFCE but didn't like so i decided it to remove it with apt-get but unfortunately a lot of applications have been left behind which i really dont want them. Is there way to remove everything that has been installed with xubuntu-dektop package?
[11:54] <gedO> jrib,  Yes :)
[11:54] <Da|Mummy> beli, any idea?
[11:54] <alphamale> i just want to install any distro that can use python, puppy doesnt play well with pyhton
[11:54] <jrib> !encryption | gedO
[11:54] <alphamale> and i havent been able to install anything from puppy
[11:54] <artyom> ёлки палки
[11:54] <qifa> just join
[11:54] <beli> Da|Mummy: i just wanted to explain basic disc stuff to you....try to mount the partition on terminal with the mount command
[11:55] <qifa> quit
[11:55] <maxi__> Samo502: maybe a guess would be great:) on 10.10 itwas so easy
[11:55] <qifa> logout
[11:55] <alphamale> i just tried universal installer but it doesnt recognize a 2nd partition on my pendrive
[11:55] <alphamale> and i had to run it from a windows machine
[11:56] <Samo502> maxi__: isn't there an add thing when you right click up there? i always recall it having an option to add something if you right click around there
[11:56] <luite> mozeee: what do you want to do? maybe chroot_local_user=YES to restrict user access to their home dirs
[11:56] <Samo502> maxi__: that's all i can think of without looking
[11:56] <luite> mozeee: for the other options, type man vsftpd.conf :)
[11:57] <maxi__> Samo502: no there isnt anything. thats my problem:) but thanks anyway
[11:57] <Samo502> maxi__: my linux box is installing service pack 2 for windows vista at the moment so i can get sony vegas on it so i can't reboot it at the moment
[11:58] <alphamale> does ubuntu need an ext3 file system?
[11:58] <iceroot> alphamale: not you can use other systems too but fat and ntfs are not working
[11:58] <beli> alphamale: the filesystems used need to be available for the kernel at boot time...
[11:59] <beli> alphamale: i mean, the drivers for the filesystems
[11:59] <alphamale> is there a way to install ubuntu onto a usb pendrive partition
[11:59] <alphamale> i have a pendrive with two partitions
[11:59] <iceroot> !usb | alphamale
[11:59] <alphamale> i dont want to erase the main partition
[12:00] <Samo502> alphamale: i still say back up your main partition files, install ubuntu and leave a partition then place the files back on
[12:01] <alphamale> sorry i dont understand what you mean sam
[12:01] <Da|Mummy> i dont know what i just did, but not i cant access any of the drives here except where ubuntu is installed...
[12:01] <alphamale> i have an o/s on that partition, not just files
[12:01] <alphamale> i dont want to mess with it
[12:01] <alphamale> but i have a free other partition
[12:01] <Samo502> ah
[12:01] <alphamale> it's already bootable
[12:02] <alphamale> i have grub4dos on it
[12:02] <beli> alphamale: you need to be root to mount stuff basically
[12:02] <Smashcat> Hi, I'm running 10.04 on a server and the latest apt-get upgrade has broken my Postfix/clamav setup. Is there any way to rollback to a previous version easily?
[12:02] <LetsGo67> Woah dirty computer 169!  That's my iMac's IP address!  How do i fix that?  i already tried to change the cable!
[12:02] <beli> s/alphamale/DaMummy/
[12:02] <Da|Mummy> yes i know
[12:02] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: use a DHCP service or static IPs
[12:02] <Da|Mummy> ok i managed to mount the other drives, still cant get one of them working
[12:02] <alphamale> so is there an easy way to install any other linux on my puppy machine
[12:02] <LetsGo67> Da|Mummy How do i fix that?
[12:02] <alphamale> it seems overly complicated
[12:03] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: But this is Ubuntu!  It's supposed t owork!
[12:03] <alphamale> i spent 3 days trying
[12:03] <superdump> does anyone know if apt in ubuntu supports ~/.netrc files for user/pass authentication for https repos?
[12:03] <beli> Da|Mummy: so why dont you try what we are telling you? mount the partition with the mount command on a terminal
[12:03] <Da|Mummy> why the other ones havent mounted automatically when i reboot is beyond me
[12:03] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: My computers didn't 169 until Ubuntu 11.04!
[12:03] <Samo502> Da|Mummy: they aren't set to mount on boot probably
[12:03] <Da|Mummy> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/500gb    <--right command?
[12:03] <beli> Da|Mummy: depends...but maybe
[12:04] <maxi__> anyone aving any experience with virtual box under ubuntu? i want to instal xp with it
[12:04] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: it does, avail will allow you to publish resources over the local network without static IPs or a DHCP server, but if you want something more, you need more configuration
[12:04] <Da|Mummy> ok so what did i just do to not have them set to mount on boot? they were earlier
[12:04] <beli> Da|Mummy: is the mount working on terminal?
[12:04] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: i have an Android.  Internet works on Ubuntu and Android.  i have an iMac.  Internet doesn't work on iMac.  It says 169.  What do i do?  It worked in 10.10 and below!
[12:04] <Da|Mummy> mount: mount point /media/500gb does not exist
[12:05] <Da|Mummy> for the command i said...
[12:05] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: how to the different computers connect to the network/internet?
[12:05] <Da|Mummy> grr
[12:05] <Da|Mummy> sorry made a mistake...
[12:05] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: It's a direct cable between the Ubuntu laptop and the iMac.
[12:05] <beli> so create the mountpoint before
[12:06] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: then you need to share the internet connection
[12:06] <Da|Mummy> ok still not working
[12:06] <beli> Da|Mummy: shall we guess the error output?
[12:06] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: Smartphone <---> Ubuntu <---> iMac
[12:06] <LetsGo67> What do i do?
[12:06] <Da|Mummy> mount: mount point /media/500gb does not exist
[12:06] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: you share the connection from ubuntu to with the mac
[12:06] <LetsGo67> Do i check the box "available to all users"?
[12:06] <Da|Mummy> thats all im getting
[12:07] <beli> Da|Mummy: sudo mkdir /media/500gb
[12:07] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: Yeah.  There's an Ethernet connection from Android to Ubuntu.  Then there's another Ethernet connection (Shared with other computers) from Ubuntu to iMac.  The iMac says 169.  What do i do?
[12:07] <Da|Mummy> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[12:07] <alphamale> ok heres a question, does each physical drive only have one boot record?
[12:07] <beli> Da|Mummy: and thats all i wanted to know...i cannot see your error replies
[12:07] <lolzer> hi my internet in ubuntu is slow as i am using dial up
[12:07] <Da|Mummy> where does -ntfs go?
[12:07] <lolzer> but i  have a broadband at office
[12:08] <alphamale> i.e. can you partition a large drive into x bootable virtual drives?
[12:08] <beli> Da|Mummy: ok, do you know the fstype you are using for that partition?
[12:08] <lolzer> i wondered if any1 would know  how to make a local server from where i can upgrade
[12:08] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: so your ubuntu system has 3 network interfaces?
[12:08] <Da|Mummy> im almost sure its ntfs
[12:08] <lgp171188> alphamale: Each hard drive has one master boot record and the partitions in the drive can have one volume boot record of their own. You can search the web for these terms and read more
[12:08] <gedO> jrib: what is  relevant data?
[12:08] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: two.  One is Android, the other is iMac.
[12:08] <alphamale> ok thx
[12:09] <beli> Da|Mummy: so make sure your kernel supports ntfs
[12:09] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: then how does the ubuntu system connect to the internet?
[12:09] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: With the smartphone.
[12:10] <Rickardo1> I have created a new user whith useradd and when I log in as it I only see $ as prompt..  tab doesn´t autosuggest either..   why is that?
[12:10] <Da|Mummy> i already have another hdd mounted thats ntfs, but what would i need to do to have kernal support ntfs? just for the hell of it?
[12:10] <Draco_> hi! I've noticed something odd: I played a video on ubuntu, with VLC, and it plays very slow ( like, bolt action, not sure how to translate it, I'm not a native eng speaker ), while the same video with the same software ( VLC ) plays well ( mostly ) on WinXp .... I kinda expected it to go faster on ubuntu, or at least at the same speed, is something wrong?  for instance, the video goes slow because there cpu isn't fast enought, the vid
[12:10] <FrankJameso> if you have one that is mounted ntfs then that's not the problem, but there should be an ntfs3g package you can install (it's not at kernel level but it gives you ntfs compatibility)
[12:10] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: then you need follow the internet connection sharing guide to share the connection to the smart phone from the ubuntu system with the mac
[12:11] <Da|Mummy> whats command in termianl to get this package?
[12:11] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: but i did!  It wasn't an issue until 11.04
[12:11] <beli> Da|Mummy: right, if another one is mounted with ntfs your kernel supports ntfs.
[12:11] <dagon666> Draco_: probably an issue of your video aperture, check glxinfo | grep -i direct
[12:11] <FrankJameso> Draco : does verything play slowly or just that one video?
[12:12] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: no version of ubuntu ever automatically bridged interfaces, you have to set that up yourself
[12:12] <wealth> hi
[12:12] <Draco_> FrankJameso, just that one ( it's the only highQ video I have, I think )
[12:12] <zamba> how can i get mplayer to play on a secondary screen automatically?
[12:12] <beli> Da|Mummy: learn to use apt tools....google for it, read the manuals
[12:13] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: my Ubuntu computer has 10.*.*.*!
[12:13] <Da|Mummy> ya i really need to familiarize myself with terminal
[12:13] <FrankJameso> Draco_, check your graphics drivers, in 11.04 you can use the start button, and then just type in drivers to get to the additional drivers option
[12:13] <Draco_> dagon666, where I'm supposed to write that line? it doesn't work in console ( command not found )
[12:13] <Da|Mummy> but right now i really need this dirve to mount like it was in maverick...
[12:13] <dagon666> Draco_: apt-get install glxinfo
[12:13] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: 10.* didn't do it either, you're basically setting up your ubuntu system as a router. that's not automatic
[12:13] <beli> zamba: mplayer -xineramascreen 1
[12:14] <Da|Mummy> but i do see that i have ntfs-3g installed
[12:14] <Samo502> tsimpson: so he's going ad-hoc?
[12:14] <Draco_> FrankJameso, I'm using the opensource drivers, video card is legacy and no longer supported ( Radeon 9600 Pro 256mb ddr )
[12:14] <LetsGo67> tsimpson: What should i do?
[12:15] <Draco_> FrankJameso, I've been strongly advised to do not install the propetary drivers ... and I don't know how to do that anyway
[12:15] <FrankJameso> Da|Mummy, you need to know the name of the usb drive itself ( usually something like /dev/???   (3 letters), type in dmesg to see if you can find it's name. Then, you probably just have to make a directory, and type in sudo mount /dev/??? (need to find 3 letters) /address/to/mountpoint
[12:15] <Samo502> LetsGo67: so you're trying to set up ubuntu as a router of sorts?
[12:15] <zamba> beli: thanks! :)
[12:15] <tsimpson> Samo502: he's connecting his phone (which has the internet connection) to his ubuntu PC, and his ubuntu PC to an iMac. and expecting the imac to automatically pick up the internet connection from the phone
[12:15] <Da|Mummy> FrankJameso, its not usb, its sata
[12:15] <Draco_> dagon666, done, but I still get a "command not found"
[12:15] <FrankJameso> Draco I see, then I'm not sure how to help you
[12:15] <beli> zamba: np
[12:15] <Da|Mummy> internal that is
[12:15] <FrankJameso> Da|Mummy same process either way
[12:15] <connor__> i need help installing ubuntu 11.04
[12:15] <Da|Mummy> and its /dev/sdc
[12:16] <Samo502> tsimpson: so he's wifi teathering his ubuntu and trying to ICS with his imac
[12:16] <beli> Da|Mummy: it was sda a minute ago...verify that
[12:16] <Da|Mummy> and i tried sudo mount /dev/sdc /media/500GB
[12:16] <LetsGo67> Samo502: Mmhmm.
[12:16] <Draco_> dagon666, wait, it gave me an "not found" error even when I tryed to install it
[12:16] <lolzer> anyone knowing how to make a ubuntu local server for ubuntu up gradation
[12:16] <FrankJameso> Da|Mummy I guess you could use dmesg | grep /dev
[12:16] <Da|Mummy> sorry my mistake, it was sda couple reboots ago
[12:16] <FrankJameso> that would make it much faster
[12:16] <Da|Mummy> it is sdc now though :|
[12:17] <beli> Da|Mummy: hey, i just wanted to make sure that you should verify that!
[12:17] <LetsGo67> Who messed up 11.04 this bad?
[12:17] <connor__> when i try installing ubuntu 11.04 it says failed to fetch file
[12:17] <DirtyDawg> quick question, i have 10.10 installed as 11.04 install is so dim i cant see hardly anything (and yes, laptop is plugged in :p ) when "support" stops, does that mean that the packages etc wont update any longer ?
[12:17] <Draco_> FrankJameso, I tought maybe there is some process that's eating up too much cpu, that might explain it
[12:17] <alphamale> is it possible to post pastebin scripts here
[12:17] <beli> Da|Mummy: retry all the stuff with sda1 then
[12:17] <tsimpson> Samo502: in short yeah, but he hasn't done anything on the ubuntu system to share connection
[12:17] <alphamale> will anyone look at them
[12:17] <Da|Mummy> beli, i did, no go
[12:17] <beli> Da|Mummy: and check about the partitioning of sda with cfdisk /dev/sda
[12:18] <Samo502> tsimpson: yeah he has to set up a connection bridge
[12:18] <Da|Mummy> its sdc now
[12:18] <Da|Mummy> :|
[12:18] <beli> Da|Mummy: you cannot mount a drive...you just can mount partitions of a drive
[12:18] <alphamale> ubotto is trying to help me
[12:18] <tsimpson> Samo502: that's what I said, but he thinks that it worked automatically in 10.x
[12:18] <Samo502> tsimpson: unfortunately i've only done ICS on windows
[12:18] <FrankJameso> Draco_ I would really assume it's the driver, but try installing htop from the terminal, and then running it through the terminal while playing the video to see how much cpu it eats
[12:18] <OO2u> Hi, has anyone EDID.bin for LCD with natove resolution 1680x1050_60? If you have this file please tell me pm.
[12:18] <gedO> Guys, how to remove relevent data from ~/Private???
[12:18] <Da|Mummy> FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive
[12:18] <Da|Mummy>                           Press any key to exit cfdisk
[12:18] <Da|Mummy> from cfdisk :|
[12:19] <connor__> when i update it says failed to fetch file
[12:19] <Samo502> Da|Mummy: the tough part is finding the 'any' key
[12:19] <Da|Mummy> the windows key will fix everything
[12:19] <beli> Da|Mummy: so lets start at the beginning.....you are trying to mount partitions of an external usb drive, right?
[12:19] <Da|Mummy> internal
[12:19] <Draco_> FrankJameso, htop? anyway VLC uses 100%, of course
[12:19] <Da|Mummy> with only one partition
[12:20] <gedO> GUYS!!! How to remove relevant data from ~/Private ??
[12:20] <Samo502> ged0: be more specific?
[12:20] <FrankJameso> Draco_ it's really using 100% of cpu? what kind of cpu do you have?
[12:20] <tsimpson> LetsGo67: read through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing
[12:20] <Da|Mummy> why disk utility labels it as Bootable under Partition Flags is beyond me as well
[12:21] <connor__> ubuntu 11.04  wont install when i try it says failed to fetch file
[12:21] <Draco_> FrankJameso, good old AMD XP 3000+ ( little more than 2ghz, single core )
[12:21] <beli> Da|Mummy: sudo hdparm -tT /dev/hdc   and post output via some nopaste site
[12:21] <Samo502> be right back guys
[12:21] <FrankJameso> Draco_ that seems a bit excessive, but the two options I see really are either trying with a different video card driver, or with a different codec. There's not much else I could suggest aside from compiling vlc from source, which is a bit complex
[12:21] <Da|Mummy> sdc i take it instead of hdc?
  there should be a way made to upgrade with the cd of ubutnu
[12:22] <beli> Da|Mummy: also post output of:   cat  /dev/mtab; cat /dev/fstab; mount

[12:23] <gedO> Guys, how to remove relevant data in ~/Private???
[12:24] <Da|Mummy> beli, http://pastebin.com/WRbzHTkQ
[12:24] <beli> gedO: what is relevant?
[12:24] <Da|Mummy> for both commands
[12:24] <lolzer> andrus what happened ?? why do you want to change
[12:24] <gedO> beli, Ensure that you have moved all relevant data out of your ~/Private directory
[12:24] <Draco_> FrankJameso, that's because I'm pretty sure the bottleneck here is the cpu, that's why I took this chance to make a little test, not sure if you get it
[12:24] <beli> Da|Mummy: /etc/mtab and /etc/fstab          please
[12:24] <tsimpson> lolzer: there is, see the "Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD" section on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NattyUpgrades
[12:24] <andrus> it does not recognise monitor
[12:24] <Draco_> FrankJameso, but yeah, maybe it's the video driver ....

[12:26] <FrankJameso> Draco_ I'm used to installing the nvidia driver, and I can go through the basic steps needed for that, I'm not too used to ati, so this guide may be more help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI

[12:27] <gedO> popey, Okey, but what meants to move relevant data??
[12:28] <beli> novitololo: man cp --> cp -R ------------> but take care of files in use/cache for /home ....you want to do that maybe in single user mode
[12:28] <popey> gedO: actually that guide is awful
[12:28] <rjune> I'm using 64bit Natty on a 2.0Ghz Core 2 Duo with 2GB RAM. I'm running into issues where specific software pushes the CPU to 100%(flash, xmoto, pitiviti, openshot) I did not have this issue on my P4 system. I'm looking for potential reasons why the 64bit would behave so much differently
[12:28] <popey> gedO: you can move it to another folder temporarily
[12:28] <gedO> okey
[12:28] <novitololo> beli: cp -R is going to copy hardlinks/softlinks too'
[12:28] <Da|Mummy> beli, the drive im trying to mount is 500gb, so its not the 120 or the 400gb
[12:28] <gedO> popey, Okey. What is comand in terminal to move? :)
[12:29] <popey> gedO: mv
[12:29] <beli> novitololo: read the manual...you can define it
  thanks /// is this new or did i miss it earlier??
[12:29] <novitololo> okay.

[12:35] <Da|Mummy> no its a sata internal as i said...
[12:35] <administrator__> ok
[12:36] <Da|Mummy> theres a chance its a IDE :|

[12:37] <gedO> Guys, how to copy directory with all files and subfolders to another directory?
  is there a way to know which one i am running?? i sorry i am new to ubuntu so dont really know where to look
[12:38] <bazhang> lolzer, the alternative is text only
[12:38] <mathews> turnerbr: select keyboard from preference and select the model of ur keyboard
[12:39] <tsimpson> lolzer: run "uname -m" and post what it says
[12:39] <Da|Mummy> beli, http://pastebin.com/VmBN1eZ5   ok whats the whole ntfs sig is missing about now?
[12:39] <mathews> turnerbr: preferences...keyboard...keyboard preferences....layouts
  it says x86_64
[12:40] <tsimpson> lolzer: then you're running the 64bit version
[12:40] <beli> Da|Mummy: seems like its logically broken.....can you try to access it on a native ntfs (ms windows) client?
[12:40] <mathews> the applets and texts on panel is not getting highlighted. It started after I installed faenza icon theme.How to solve this
[12:41] <Da|Mummy> beli, not unless i install windows now, which i dont really want to do, and dont really want to take it out, to put it somewhere else
  so amd64 is the one .. right??
[12:41] <Da|Mummy> beli, but it was mounting and working fine in ubuntu maverick no more then 5 days ago
[12:41] <beli> Da|Mummy: but you also dont really want to lose data ;) so, its your decision
[12:42] <Da|Mummy> youre damn right i dont want to lose that data :|
[12:42] <beli> Da|Mummy: my care worked 5 days ago too...in the meanwhile its overheating ;)
[12:42] <beli> s/care/car/
[12:42] <tsimpson> lolzer: yes
[12:43] <Da|Mummy> what do you say i live cd maverick and see how that works out?
[12:43] <maxi__> can i run a live cd in virtual box? that sould work right?
[12:43] <jwtiyar> i have 11.04, but all programs should be maximize to see toolbar ,how to fix?
[12:44] <beli> Da|Mummy: the output of fdisk -l telling its SYSTEM SFS....and you telling it is ntfs or any other windows file system......tells me that something is logically broken...to prevent data loss i would use a native windows client to verify stuff........
[12:45] <beli> Da|Mummy: boot a windows cd and use the rescue console...try using chkdsk
[12:45] <Da|Mummy> hmmm...you might be onto something
[12:45] <Da|Mummy> now hear me out on this one
[12:45] <jon__> any ideas on my cron problem guys. this is the cron 0 * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.presstoprint.co.uk/cron.php, but it stopped running after natty upgrade
[12:45] <jrib> jon__: how are you determining that it isn't running?
[12:46] <beli> jon__: what error is raised?
[12:46] <Da|Mummy> while i was updating ubuntu through Update manager in maverick, the installation got stuck at like 99% for hours, so i force shut down pc, maybe this caused damage?
[12:46] <mathews> why the applet not getting highlighted with unity
[12:46] <Da|Mummy> although ubuntu had no reason to read/write to this drive
[12:46] <beli> Da|Mummy: maybe...
[12:46] <beli> Da|Mummy: maybe it was mounted for testing
[12:46] <jwtiyar> what i have to do??

[13:05] <Holdkjeft> linaro bug # 771900 basically there's a switch statement optimization that causes the compiler to crash. Can't compile gst-ffmpeg because of it

[13:05] <sipior> shomon: there should be a "default via" entry.
[13:05] <bazhang> pr0ton, with aptoncd

[13:08] <Superstar> I want to create an encrypted partition and I'm at the ubuntu installation screen where I can allocate space. should I create an ext4 partition with no mount point or should I leave it as free space and create it after?

[13:12] <jacobt> does nvidia have a driver for ubuntu?
[13:12] <shomon> kleopatra, there are a few linux admin books, try oreilly. also knowing basics of networking, web, how processes work or whatever your intended area is will help.
[13:12] <nibbler_> kleopatra, if you have a problem, use "aptitude search KEYWORD" to find software dealing with the problem KEYWORD, then read the manpage, isntall the software, google it?
[13:13] <Ratz> Hi all, I've installed ubuntu 11.04 and run "apt-get remove unity" to get rid of the new UI and go back to the proper one.. however unity's still listed as an option on login and if you take it, you get a blank UI and no chance to log out.
[13:13] <Ratz> So, how do I remove it as being even a login option?
[13:13] <red2kic> kleopatra: Experiences make you better at everything. Practices makes perfect. Use Google when you have specific error message, eg "ubuntu, message_here, solved"

[13:13] <erix> Hi everyone , How does ln -s works  ? in this format ln  -s <FROM> <TO>
[13:14] <lolzer> gksu "sh /media/cdrom/cdromupgrade" didnt do a thing
[13:14] <lolzer> please help
[13:14] <nibbler_> erix, i'm working with linux for >10 years now, but for this i always have to use the manpage before using ;-)
[13:14] <rob_p> erix: ln -s /path/to/src /path/to/dst

[13:15] <kleopatra> Hmm for exampkle the last problem i had was that my mousepointer disappeared sometimes. After sending a dozen of logs to irc it came out that somwehow fbdev or something like this was used instead of my fglrx driver. I didnt know how it could happen nor how to fix it
[13:15] <dmesg> SirDeiu: works a treat, thanks!
[13:15] <erix> Thanks a lot for all
[13:15] <SirDeiu> dmesg: ok :)

[13:16] <erix> I will make a symlink between sites-avaiable and sites-enabled under apache folder
[13:16] <josepa> i can't install ubuntu in mi Notebook, I have Ubuntu 10.04 and it doesn let me upgrade to 11.04... i havn't an option in the Update Manager to upgrade... some help?
[13:16] <nibbler_> kleopatra, well.. logs are important, knowledge of your system.... but these kind of error are for sure not easy to spot
[13:16] <rob_p> erix: Why not use a2ensite?
[13:16] <alphamale> i got the command line grub4dos working to run kernel and initrd then it jsut crashed and exited to grub
[13:16] <red2kic> josepa: Stay on LTS (10.04) -- You don't have to upgrade.
[13:16] <erix> Is it the same thing ?
[13:16] <nibbler_> josep: guess you are set to only use LTS releases somewhere in the packet manager
[13:17] <josepa> yes
[13:17] <red2kic> josepa: That's the whole point of using LTS, long-term support. You're good for 5 years from LTS release date.
[13:17] <rob_p> erix: a2ensite is a utility that takes care of creating the sym-link for you. :)
[13:17] <nibbler_> erix, for this just use a2ensite and a2dissit
[13:17] <jacobt> if i try installing nvidia driver i get just a terminal no active x i remove my xorg.conf it rebuilds and i have 2d just fine
[13:17] <erix> wuw :)
  gksu "sh /media/cdrom/cdromupgrade" didnt do a thing
[13:17] <erix> I didt know it
[13:17] <rob_p> erix: Simply do, "sudo a2ensite name_of_site"
[13:17] <josepa> ah ok... so, what I have to do to change that?
[13:17] <nibbler_> erix, i dont think this does any more then creating the symlink for you, so do as you wish :)
  the site said "If the upgrade dialog is not displayed for any reason, you may also run the following command using Alt+F2: "
[13:18] <rob_p> erix: ...but the site name must exist in the sites-available directory.
[13:18] <RicardoPerez> Hi! Can anybody tell me how can I submit a bugreport if I find a bug in the geoip.ubuntu.com database?
[13:19] <RicardoPerez> geoip.ubuntu.com/lookup tells me that my timezone is Africa/Ceuta, but the right timezone should be Europe/Madrid
[13:19] <alphamale> can someone help me boot from usb, i followed these instructions...http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html
[13:19] <red2kic> !bug | RichardJ
[13:19] <red2kic> RicardoPerez: See above (oops)
[13:20] <erix> Yep I created an sitename under sites-avaiable and I enabled with a2enmod, Besides, Do I need to disable default site name under sites-avaiable ?
[13:20] <red2kic> !usb | alphamale
[13:20] <_6Xorg9_> Which is the best usb Wifi card the works well with ubuntu and aircrack ?
[13:20] <RicardoPerez> red2kic: thanks. however, what's the package name for the geoip.ubuntu.com online service?
[13:20] <rob_p> nibbler_: That's correct.  But it seems easier for people to use than doing, "sudo ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/site_name /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/site-name"

[13:20] <ylmfos> music !
[13:20] <red2kic> RicardoPerez: I have no idea. I'm on debian.
[13:20] <ylmfos> 说中文
[13:21] <rob_p> erix: It's a2ensite. You use a2enmod to enable modules.
[13:21] <RicardoPerez> red2kic: IMHO, there's no source package because geoip.ubuntu.com is an online service, not a package
[13:21] <LjL> !cn | ylmfos
[13:21] <erix> sorry :)
[13:21] <ylmfos> ……
[13:21] <josepa> I did it! thanks for your help... i changed the only LTS upgrates to Normal upgrades and the option appeared... thanx!

[13:24] <p0s> hi. i made a fresh install of natty (amd64, setup over PXE). it randomly does not boot (with a failure rate of >90%), instead it drops into a purple screen. after adding "nosplash" and removing "quiet" from the kernel command line i was able to see that it drops into an initramfs shell, the purple splashscreen probably hides this.  further, adding the "nosplash" option to the kernel command line via the grub menu is also difficult, because grub randomly
[13:25] <p0s> dies with "alloc magic is broken at 0x3fdb7230" then (failure rate also >90%). the value of 0x3fdb7230 is always the same and there are zero google results for it. i would like to trace the problems down if someone is here who can help me with it & then file the bugtracker entries.

[13:28] <v4nelle> guys is there an app which dont allow you to move/edit your widgets?
[13:28] <coconutz> when i load ubuntu server its hangs on grub , like he tells me to select one of the things there.. and there is no countdown to select default how can i set it ?
[13:29] <v4nelle> wrong room
[13:29] <v4nelle> lol
[13:29] <Ratz> coconutz: Can you manually select anything?
[13:29] <coconutz> yeah
[13:29] <quackaduck> coconutz: i think you can set that at your grub config
[13:29] <tasslehoff> Gnea: yeah. just gotta figure out what module it is
[13:29] <coconutz> where?
[13:30] <Ratz> coconutz: If you change /etc/default/grub you'll see default options
[13:30] <Ratz> coconutz: Once you're done with that run sudo grub-update and that should be it.
[13:30] <eroomde_> hello - can I make alt+vertical-mouse-movement into scroll? So I can scroll on my thinkpad which has one of those nipples
[13:30] <Ratz> Sorry, update-grub2 rather.

[13:30] <user_><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[13:30] <SpaceBass> is there a way to emulate an X environment via a web interface? I have a server without X installed, however there is one critical app that is GUI based. I'd hate to install X just to run it, can I make it think its running in an X environment which I can access via some kind of web, vnc, or other interface?

[13:31] <Ratz> coconutz: GRUB_DEFAULT=0 shows you which one is the default
[13:31] <Ratz> So 0 is the topmost entry, 1 is the one under that etc.
[13:32] <tasslehoff> Gnea: hm. tapping worked, and suddenly it woke up again (after 5 minutes or so...)
[13:32] <aeon-ltd> linuxster: / not ?
[13:32] <coconutz> i paste it after i did grub update2
[13:32] <Gnea> tasslehoff: weird... is it a netbook?
[13:32] <coconutz> its now ok this config
[13:32] <coconutz> ?
[13:32] <tasslehoff> Gnea: MacBook Pro
[13:32] <Ratz> coconutz: The entry GRUB_TIMEOUT=2 should give you 2 seconds to change your mind.
[13:32] <coconutz> what is hidden timeout?
[13:33] <SpaceBass> nice move spacebars?ask a question and then quit your irc program...
[13:33] <Ratz> I /think/ it just doesn't give you a timer.
[13:33] <Ratz> coconutz: It looks fine to me, but you may want to give yourself more than 2 seconds.
[13:33] <quackaduck> SpaceBass: have you tried it over SSH?
[13:33] <Gnea> tasslehoff: have you read this yet? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[13:33] <Ratz> Some graphics cards haven't quite got their act together when grub2 starts and you may need 5 seconds or so.
[13:33] <p0s> SpaceBass: there is a virtual X framebuffer
[13:34] <SpaceBass> quackaduck, the program? Its a guy program? I mean, I can tunnel X and run the gui on a remote machine, but thats less than ideal
[13:34] <SpaceBass> p0s, how does one access the interface if needed?
[13:34] <p0s> SpaceBass: if you dont have to actually use the gui which the app provides then you can use it to make it run without any actual x display: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xvfb
[13:34] <p0s> SpaceBass: i think you cannot. but that might have changed, i dont know.
[13:34] <SpaceBass> thanks p0s ! thats got a strong potential
[13:34] <coconutz> ratz: yeah, you right thats my girlfriend says all the time!
[13:34] <coconutz> hehe
[13:35] <SpaceBass> I'd love to be able to VNC in if needed, but not the end of the world?great solution, thanks!

[13:35] <Itqan> hi folks!

[13:37] <AvnHmnd> i was wondering if there is anyone out there who would be wiling to help a total linux noob who decided to dive off the deck of the windows ship head first
[13:38] <moriramar> for uname : Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-31-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 18:25:51 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[13:38] <moriramar> LiveUSB is built with universal-usb-installer, since ubuntu's liveusb tools cannot be forced to install on my USB HDD.(i dunno why)
[13:38] <schnuffle> AvnHmnd: in here as soon as you ask you'll get help
[13:38] <Itqan> i have a problem with my ubuntu 10.10 it just freezes after 5 mins of use i tried uninstalling all ubuntuone packages and now the frequency of freezing is reduced but the problem still persists
[13:38] <AvnHmnd> trying to install the applications i used in windows on my fresh new ubuntu install
[13:39] <jacobt> does anyone ellse have problems w/ nvidia 3d graphics support?
[13:39] <AvnHmnd> for instance i am trying to install jdownloader
[13:39] <schnuffle> AvnHmnd: Windows apps or Linux apps?
[13:39] <AvnHmnd> schnuffle thank you jdownloader
[13:39] <moriramar> Itqan: before it freezed, did you get any information or warning?
[13:40] <Itqan> no
[13:40] <AvnHmnd> not fully understanding the direction of the their site
[13:40] <Itqan> its behaves normally
[13:40] <Itqan> and then suddenly
[13:40] <schnuffle> AvnHmnd: try http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/jdownloader
[13:40] <DirtyDawg> quick question, i have 10.10 installed as 11.04 install is so dim i cant see hardly anything (and yes, laptop is plugged in :p ) when "support" stops, does that mean that the packages etc wont update any longer ?
[13:40] <moriramar> jacobt: i highly doubt that they will answer you. ask directly. :)
[13:40] <xXRATXx> bonjour
[13:40] <AvnHmnd> thank you schnuffle
[13:41] <Itqan> it freezes and i cant even move the mouse
[13:41] <s3m4r> x
[13:41] <Itqan> or turn off computer
[13:41] <schnuffle> !fr | xXRATXx
[13:41] <xXRATXx> where is backtrack french?
[13:41] <moriramar> good, my empathy freezed...
[13:42] <jacobt> what d
[13:42] <moriramar> Excuse me, I have a problem using gpg with LUKS in my Ubuntu 10.10 LiveUSB. command : gpg -d go.gpg | cryptsetup luksFormat -c aes-xts-plain -s 512 /dev/sda1.
[13:42] <jacobt> moriramar: what do you mean ask directly?
[13:42] <bencc> isn't it possible to create a group and a user with the same name? "/usr/sbin/groupadd demo" and "/usr/sbin/adduser demo" gives me "The group 'demo' already exists'
[13:43] <moriramar> jacobt: forget it. the irc client freezed and it delayed.
[13:43] <jacobt> ok
[13:43] <fasp> I'm trying to understand the output of "dmesg" (after modprobe evbug). what do type, code and value stand for?
[13:44] <moriramar> bencc: when you create a user, a group named after the user's name is already created,  iirc.
[13:44] <schnuffle> bencc: normally a new user gets a group with the same name
[13:44] <rob_p> bencc: You can view the current list of groups on your system by doing, "ls /etc/group"  If that group is found in the list, then it already exists! :)
[13:44] <jacobt> i have no 3d support and unity won't work it defaultsback to normal desktop setting
[13:45] <bencc> moriramar: so I should delete the group first?
[13:45] <rob_p> bencc: I meant, "cat /etc/group"
[13:46] <matthias_> when I just updated ubuntu, I got arnings like   cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to detect canonical device of /dev/sda1
[13:46] <moriramar> bencc: i am not sure whether you want to do that. what do you want to do?
[13:46] <bencc> rob_p: I've created the group so I know it is there
[13:46] <matthias_> any ideas aboutthese warnings? is that something serious?
[13:46] <erix> I disable(with a2dissite default) default site under sites-avaiable and then I enabled mysite with a2ensite mysite. but I got an error which is Syntax error on line 3 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mysite. Whats wrong ?
[13:46] <rob_p> bencc: So then why remove it?  What are you trying to do?
[13:46] <bencc> moriramar: I want to create a user demo which belongs to a group demo that can use sudo
[13:46] <moriramar> matthias_: i experienced that also, but nothing serious happened. i guess it does not matter.
[13:47] <schnuffle> erix: try apachectl configtest to see errors
