[00:11] <r000t_laptop> about that

[00:14] <djzielin> is there a channel for ubuntu netbook?
[00:15] <nit-wit> djzielin, you can ask here
[00:17] <djzielin> installing 10.10 on my netbook hangs with a blinking cursor during install
[00:17] <zaery> I tried to do a system upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, and it gave me a list of three options why it failed, I'm pretty sure it was the "a package not supported by ubuntu won't let you upgrade" is the problem, but, I don't know how to find out which one. help?
[00:18] <timClicks> djzielin: that's no good. thanks for not giving up! how are your trying to install it?
[00:18] <nit-wit> djzielin, have you tried the f6 option nomodeset, use the shift at power on to get to the first gui menu het f6 choose this then crtl-x to boot
[00:18] <zaery> djzielin: what point during the install were you, before you got the blinking cursor?
[00:19] <induz> Random832, its for iphone or android
[00:19] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: why do you suspect nautilus?
[00:19] <nit-wit> zaery, good question
[00:19] <homercycles> Can anyone recommend a good solution for playing music on my Mythbuntu box. I don't want to stream music to any browser/device, but I want to tell it (web interface?) to queue music and just play it on the combined frontend/backend device
[00:19] <homercycles> the ability to maybe pause/resume using my plain old MCE (infra-red) remote would also be awesome
[00:20] <shcherbak> homercycles: mpd?
[00:20] <rabbitear> labron james have posted all his secrets on wikileaks
[00:20] <djzielin> well
[00:20] <samtop> hello
[00:20] <samtop> how can I see what my processor speed is?
[00:20] <r000t_laptop> shcherbak, because top says xorg and nautilus both take about 40% CPU each when this happens
[00:20] <djzielin> trying to install from USB stick, the netbook doesn't have a cd/dvd drive.
[00:20] <samtop> I am on the new Xubuntu
[00:20] <samtop> 10.10
[00:20] <homercycles> schcherbak: thanks. hadn't encountered that in my googling yet. will look into it.
[00:21] <erUSUL> samtop: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[00:21] <samtop> erUSUL what does that mean?
[00:21] <djzielin> I've tried several things.
[00:21] <zaery> samtop, type "cat /proc/cpuinfo" into the terminal and hit enter
[00:21] <djzielin> I've tried editing the syslinux.cfg file.
[00:21] <djzielin> to remove the "ui" reference.
[00:22] <erUSUL> samtop: is a command i you want to check via gui --> System>Admin...>system monitor
[00:22] <djzielin> then I get a message that gfxboot is not found.
[00:22] <djzielin> I'm able to hit enter and enter a boot menu. but when I try to install. get the same, black screen, with a cursor blinking in the upper left.
[00:22] <zaery> djzielin: why would you delete the ui reference?
[00:23] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: lsmod | grep ipw ?
[00:23] <djzielin> I saw the idea to delete it on a thread on the ubuntu forumns.
[00:23] <r000t_laptop> ipw2200               135216  0
[00:23] <r000t_laptop> libipw                 39896  1 ipw2200
[00:23] <r000t_laptop> lib80211                5046  3 lib80211_crypt_wep,ipw2200,libipw
[00:23] <djzielin> have also tried installing syslinux 4.02
[00:23] <zaery> erusul, samtop didn't even say thanks before he left :(
[00:23] <djzielin> based on a post I saw in the threads.
[00:23] <karim_> Is it possible to install ubuntu over a ubuntu installed partition with windows on another partition?
[00:23] <erUSUL> zaery: happens all the time in irc ...
[00:24] <pilmark> I have just installed ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) on my new Asus a72dr, the pc was unable to boot afterwards, requsting a usable boot medium. When i entered the bios the HD boot options label was scrambled and unreadable. I am now trying to install 10.4 (64 bit) from CD and have disabled AHCI in bios. Any advice would be apriciated.
[00:24] <zaery> karim_, yes, you would wipe the previous ubuntu install and all of the data on that partition, though
[00:25] <djzielin> maybe I should just try 10.04? (that had worked previosly). of course they may be also not worked because I'm trying to dual boot w/ windows 7.
[00:25] <djzielin> I have already installed windows 7, and shrunk the partition size.
[00:25] <rusivi> pilmark: Flash your BIOS w/ most recent version
[00:25] <zaery> djzielin, i haven't tried resizing win7 partitions, but every time i resized an xp partition, it totally broke xp, just fyi
[00:26] <djzielin> no
[00:26] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: ipw2200 is likely to be reason, make full upgrade, and next time fill bug report on launchpad. you can just manually reload module to see if this is it. Does it happend on any network or only one?
[00:26] <djzielin> windows 7 still works
[00:26] <karim_> Is it safe though? zaery? I don't want to lose my windows OS. And what will happen to grub?
[00:26] <djzielin> (this whole thing is a long annoyance, just so I can watch netflix). ugh.
[00:26] <djzielin> but I'd like to be able to dual boot.
[00:26] <zaery> djzielin: wow, 7's better than i expected, then
[00:26] <NeoCicak> any dwarf fortress player here?
[00:26] <Bernardo> Hi all, I just downloaded ubuntu 10.10 and burned it on a cd - however, I used Nero to burn it. Could that be the reason why it gets stuck with the purple screen when I reboot now?
[00:27] <nit-wit> Bernardo, for how long?
[00:27] <Bernardo> I'd say 10 minutes...
[00:27] <karim_> Purple Screen, haha. Ubuntu and the purple screen of death.
[00:27] <zaery> karim_ when you install ubuntu, make sure you select to change the partitions manually, and don't touch the windows partition. grub is reinstalled when you install ubuntu, and automatically detects all OS's you have, including windows
[00:28] <r000t_laptop> shcherbak there is only one network to use
[00:28] <shcherbak> karim_: or hope
[00:28] <nit-wit> Bernardo, try when powering on holding the shift key down imm, then choose the try mode from there.
[00:28] <r000t_laptop> how do I full upgrade?
[00:29] <sandym> hi alex, i figured out xchat, i think
[00:29] <Geekneeus> sudo synaptic upgrade
[00:29] <nit-wit> r000t_laptop, from what to what and what type of install
[00:29] <Bernardo> okay, that's what I wanted anyway. Oh: I'm using wireless keyboard and mouse. That'll still work?
[00:29] <Geekneeus> r000t_laptop: but then I don't know what you want upgrade been afk :P
[00:29] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: start upgrade manager from menu. Other thing is that you dis/reconnect too often. Power issue?
[00:30] <nit-wit> Bernardo, I don't know about the wireless
[00:30] <djzielin> ok
[00:30] <r000t_laptop> shcherbak it just does that by itself
[00:30] <r000t_laptop> fatass family members use the microwave too often
[00:30] <Bernardo> okay, I'll try. thanks!
[00:30] <djzielin> getting further.
[00:30] <ndz01> anyone using a SSD with ubuntu?  anything special to know or optimize?
[00:30] <djzielin> used tab to change the options in the netbook boot menu
[00:30] <r000t_laptop> I'm on 10.04 by the way because I've heard from multiple people that 10.10 sucks
[00:30] <djzielin> got rid of "quiet"
[00:30] <nit-wit> r000t_laptop, is this a regular install or a wubi
[00:31] <r000t_laptop> regular install
[00:31] <zaery> ndz01, it works just like a normal hdd, but it's faster :)
[00:31] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: iwlist and iwconfig may be helpfull, try to disable (is it lappy) power management
[00:31] <djzielin> it looks like get does ata1, ata2, ata3, ata4
[00:31] <pilmark> rusivi, I have checked the asus support site, no firmware upgrades are available
[00:31] <Geekneeus> r000t_laptop: r000t_laptop 10.10 is working without fault for me (now) had a few things to sort out
[00:31] <djzielin> then the last likne is...
[00:31] <djzielin> [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
[00:31] <djzielin> and it just hangs there.
[00:32] <r000t_laptop> shcherbak what ti iwlist and iwconfig do and why am I disabling power management?
[00:32] <jeeves> how do I downgrade my PHP installed version to 5.2 and force it to stay @ 5.2?  apparently, 5.3 breaks everything
[00:32] <ndz01> zaery thx )
[00:32] <progre55> hi guys. how do you set a machine date to UTC? now it's on GMT
[00:33] <sta7ic> progre55: date command
[00:33] <erUSUL> progre55: i do not know if it what you mean but take a look at /etc/default/rcS ( "man rcS" for details )
[00:34] <zaery> I just tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, and i got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554229/ how do i find out what package is the culprit? (I don't touch pre-release stuff)
[00:34] <progre55> erUSUL: there was some other command I guess..
[00:34] <shcherbak> r000t_laptop: 10.10 is more advanced than 10.04, on my macines is much faster (gods know why). iwconfig eth1 power off, but first *man iwconfig*
[00:36] <erUSUL> progre55: to change date and time? sta7ic already told you what is the command. linux has/stores its clock in utc and shows local date based on locale and timezone info. that's why i did not fully understand your original question.
[00:36] <rww> UTC and GMT are essentially the same thing.
[00:37] <progre55> well I've got a server, and it has the GMT time, and I need to set it to local time.
[00:37] <rww> "UTC" and "local time" are not the same thing.
[00:37] <progre55> oh it's "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata"
[00:38] <rww> indeed
[00:38] <KM0201> !info supertuxkart
[00:39] <djzielin> well...
[00:39] <djzielin> I read further and it says drm is direct render management, so probably something about 10.10 install is breaking because of the video drivers?
[00:39] <djzielin> Its a lenovo s10-3
[00:41] <brimestone> hey guys.. i need help with htaccess and apache2... its not working.. can someone help me please

[00:43] <rusivi> pilmark: Then you can either try to reflash the BIOS with the latest (one you already installed) or call mfg and claim mfg defect = BIOS
[00:45] <chad1234> Hey is there a fedora core chatroom?

[00:52] <Peddy> how can I list audio devices (eg microphones)?
[00:53] <djzielin> I usually use alsamixer
[00:53] <histo> Peddy: microphones aren't typically detected. Inputs are though
[00:53] <gt_> just borring(
[00:53] <gt_> there are no ubuntu users
[00:53] <Peddy> histo, my microphone is detected as an input- i want to see which device file it corresponds to
[00:53] <gt_> atall
[00:53] <histo> !ops
[00:53] <gt_> only windows
[00:54] <gt_> in our country
[00:54] <intrader> sandyd, in http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/softinstall.html it says to execute ./configure. After extracting I don't see ./configure
[00:54] <stealthc> what country are you from, ethiopia?
[00:54] <histo> Peddy: no the mic is plugged in to the input channel of the sound card. Or hardwired for that matter.
[00:54] <Peddy> histo, so there is no /dev file that it corresponds to?
[00:55] <mactimes> Peddy, Usually, new mother-boards can detect if there is a mic plugged in, not _which_ mic is plugged in, AFAIK.
[00:55] <Peddy> this is a USB microphone
[00:55] <histo> Peddy: have a look in /dev/snd
[00:55] <jeeves_moss> how do I downgrade my PHP installed version to 5.2 and force it to stay @ 5.2?  apparently, 5.3 breaks everything
[00:55] <mactimes> PEBMAC, On, in this case:  lshw or hwinfo might help
[00:56] <Dr_Willis> ![in | jeeves_moss
[00:56] <mactimes> Peddy, May want to take a look at lsusb too
[00:56] <Dr_Willis> !pin | jeeves_moss

[00:56] <gt_> ok sorry
[00:56] <mactimes> Peddy, May want to take a look at lsusb too
[00:56] <Peddy> ah, apparently it is in /dev/snd. Thanks all

[00:58] <zaery> histo: I've never pinned any packages, unless it's possible for a package to automatically pin itself on install
[00:58] <jeeves_moss> Dr_Willis, any idea on the name of the php5.2 package so I can pin it?
[00:58] <histo> zaery: no it's ot

[00:59] <The_Maverick> hello i have an icon theme that i would like to extract to my "usr/share/icons" folder and it says that i need permissions. how do i go about doing that?
[00:59] <shcherbak> The_Maverick: sudo?
[00:59] <Dr_Willis> jeeves_moss:  nope.
[00:59] <YankDownUnder> Su su sudio!
[00:59] <jeeves_moss> Dr_Willis, thanks
[00:59] <The_Maverick> shcherbak so i have to extract it via command line?
[01:00] <crawler> The_Maverick: did you try putting them in ~/.icons?
[01:00] <Dr_Willis> The_Maverick:   why do you Need to extract it there? users camn have their own theme dirs.
[01:00] <shcherbak> The_Maverick: or nautilus with gksudo
[01:00] <The_Maverick> that is where i would put the icons right?
[01:01] <Dr_Willis> The_Maverick:  .icons in your home - can work..
[01:01] <Dr_Willis> The_Maverick:  if its an actual icon theme. you can drag/drop it to the 'appearance' program window and it should install to the proper location in the users home dir.

[01:04] <gusg1> I'm installing some drivers from NI. They don't officially support Ubuntu, only RedHat, Mandriva and SUSE. Each somes with its own installation script. I'm not sure what the differences are. Which one is most likely to work with Ubuntu?
[01:05] <Dr_Willis> gusg1:  any of them would be about as big a gamble as the others...
[01:05] <intrader> sandyd, are you still here?
[01:05] <gusg1> Dr_Willis: Thanks. Could you in general describe what the compatibility issues are?
[01:05] <christian_> hi
[01:06] <gusg1> or ... "would be"
[01:06] <bluezone> Okay here is the gist of it: I cannot boot my system GUI, every time i boot the kernel  it gives me a command line, so i am talking to you from the graphical fail safe using the recovery mode, i also see in this recovery mode that i am locked to 800 by 600 and i can't change that since i my monitor isnt recognized, this is most likely an issue with my video card drivers, but for some annoying reasons they do not want to install when i try to d

[01:06] <dpyro> hi, i have an atom netbook (hp mini 2102) and it does not do any cpu frequency scaling, it just sits at 1.3Ghz. thanks in advance!
[01:06] <Dr_Willis> gusg1:  no idea. i  wouldent even begin to guess.. differnt kernel sources/patches could be a major issue.
[01:06] <Dr_Willis> gusg1:  i dont even know who 'NI' is

[01:07] <anon33_> If I put in a blank DVD-R and add a .mp4 movie file to it - will it burn a data disc or dvd disc using the CD/DVD creator in nautilus?
[01:08] <intrader> dan08, I need to know if sandyd is still around or not, thanks
[01:08] <Dr_Willis> anon33_:  it will make a data disk with a mp4 file on the disk.
[01:08] <Dr_Willis> anon33_:  most 'burner' apps  do just that.. burn data..  use a differnt app to gernate/convert/create a dvd-video iso file. you then burn
[01:08] <dan08> intrader: i dont know :! check the list
[01:08] <shcherbak> anon33_: yes, data. to make DVD playable disc you need software
[01:09] <Dr_Willis> anon33_:  its possible k3b has some features like that.. but ive not noticed them in k3b (yet). i tend to use 'devede'
[01:09] <bastidrazor> anon33_: devede will convert the mp4 to an dvd image (iso) that will play on any player
[01:09] <Dr_Willis> anon33_:  i have some dvd players now that can play dvd data video files. :)
[01:09] <intrader> dan08, and how do I do that?
[01:10] <anon33_> bastidrazor: Will it work on an xbox360?
[01:10] <anon33_> All I'm trying to do is put a .mp4 file to play on a 360 =\
[01:10] <The_Maverick> i did this "mkdir -p /home/username/.icons" and i cant see the ".icons" directory in my file browser
[01:10] <dan08> ill check that for u. because if ur looking for a command i dont really know :|
[01:10] <bastidrazor> anon33_: you could share files with ushare to your xbox and play mp4's
[01:11] <dan08> is it sandyd or sandym?
[01:11] <bastidrazor> The_Maverick: in nautilus press Ctrl + H to see hidden files.. an . before directories or files will make them hideen

[01:12] <dpyro> bastidrazor: thanks, I think that worked!
[01:12] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, sorry i was afk, my video card is nvidia 8400m GS and i have been trying to install the drivers with the .run file supplied by the manufacturer
[01:12] <dpyro> min and max were set to 1.33GHz
[01:12] <bastidrazor> dpyro: you're welcome.
[01:12] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  you have tried the ones in the reops?
[01:12] <YankDownUnder> Ooooo! I've got an NVidia 8600! :)
[01:12] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, it gave errors about CC compiler version mismatch and noe having kernel development files
[01:13] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, uhh no where are those
[01:13] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  i also find that with my nvidia cards i have to use the 'nomodeset' option if i am not using the nvidia propiarty drivers. or else plymouth really crashes badly
[01:13] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, how do i get them from the repos
[01:13] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  when you first booted, you had a desktop? the system -> admin -> addational drivers tool. would auto mate it.. otherwise you install the 'nvidia-common' package. (i think)
[01:13] <intrader> Anyone, how do I find out whether sandyd is online?
[01:13] <dan08> !list
[01:13] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  there may be a jockey-text progarm that can do it also from teh clo

[01:14] <anon33_> how do I launch gnome-disk-utility from the command line?
[01:14] <anon33_> nevermind
[01:14] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  -->  nvidia-current - NVIDIA binary Xorg driver, kernel module and VDPAU library
[01:14] <crawler> lol^^
[01:14] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, yes i had a desktop before, but dude in aditional drivers there used to be drivers there now there are none for my videocard, i must of screwed something up the *@#
[01:14] <bluezone> okk
[01:15] <dan08> intrader: i dont know how to do it. i didnt find anyone named sandyd, but someone named sandym... idk
[01:16] <intrader> dan08, and how did you do that?
[01:16] <intrader> help /whois
[01:16] <anon33_> Anyone know of an easy way to get an mp4 file playing on a xbox 360?
[01:17] <YankDownUnder> intrader, The context of the command is: /help whois
[01:17] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, sorry i download all of those from the repos right?
[01:17] <bastidrazor> intrader: you should ask in #freenode.. the subject you're discussing is outside the scope of this channel.
[01:17] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  just the one package should pull in the other needed ones.. I think.
[01:17] <bluezone> okay
[01:17] <intrader> YankDownUnder, thanks, - how are the floods?.
[01:18] <djzielin> okay results are in.
[01:18] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Bad. Really bad.
[01:18] <djzielin> lenovo netbook dual booting works with windows 7 + ubuntu netbook 10.04 [10.10 does not work, hangs during install]
[01:18] <intrader> YankDownUnder, thanks, - sorry about that, I saw some youtubes
[01:19] <dan08> help /whois
[01:19] <bluezone> djzielin, it hangs, do you hear the cd working or the usb working, where does it hang?
[01:19] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Worse in Queensland, however, it's raining here YET AGAIN. Dunno what sunshine is anymore.
[01:19] <djzielin> well
[01:19] <djzielin> its doing it on a usb key install
[01:19] <djzielin> it hangs right at the drm line [I think direct render management]
[01:20] <djzielin> so my guess is its perhaps something to do with the video card?
[01:20] <bluezone> oh i think that just takes awhile
[01:20] <djzielin> I don't know... but 10.04 will work fine for me.
[01:20] <bluezone> is that after you allocate the disk space?
[01:20] <ubnoob> hello, the alt f2 key stoped working, anyone know how to open the run app from command line?

[01:22] <ronnish> hi guys, i am having issues with my dell laptop connecting wirelessly
[01:22] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, what should i do after it is done?
[01:22] <bluezone> ronnish, what type of issues
[01:22] <ronnish> can someone help me out
[01:22] <watermains> help, I'm on 10.04, I have an EVGA GTX460 .  the nouveau drivers that came by default didn't give me any more than 640x480 resolution.  I installed the linux-headers for my kernel, then installed nvidia-current.  I restarted, successfully ran nvidia-xconfig, then restarted x server.  I can get into the GUI Nvidia configuration tool, but it still doesn't recognize my card
[01:22] <KimLaroux> ronnish, maybe you could simply state your problem
[01:22] <dan08> KB1JWQ: Thanks
[01:22] <ronnish> bluezone, basically i cannot get the wireless card to turn on, or at least on the laptop,
[01:23] <ronnish> i think it is not detecting the wireless card
[01:23] <ronnish> i have tired different things but no luck
[01:23] <ubnoob> bluezone: the alt f2 key stopped working - do you know how to fix it
[01:23] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  i nomrally install the drivers then just reboot.
[01:23] <xdunlapx> I can't get the ubuntu 10.10 live cd to boot. it always drops me at a prompt. md5sum is correct. the prompt says to init= bootarg
[01:23] <bluezone> ronnish, so you dont see any wireless networks?
[01:23] <ronnish> no i dont
[01:23] <watermains> my driver version (what apt installed for nvidia-current) is 195.36.24
[01:23] <Dr_Willis> bluezone:  you might want to try the 'nomodeset' option to the boot/grub line. (e to edit the line, replace 'quiet splash' with 'nomodeset'
[01:23] <ronnish> when i try the wireless it says wireless is off
[01:23] <bluezone> Dr_Willis, well no drivers show up on that gui interface still
[01:23] <ronnish> and i cant do anything
[01:24] <shcherbak> ubnoob: do you have panel?
[01:24] <bluezone> ronnish, your sure your wireless switch is turned on right?
[01:24] <ronnish> yup
[01:24] <ronnish> it works fine in windows
[01:24] <bluezone> well
[01:24] <bluezone> then i would try sudo modprobe iwl3945
[01:24] <bluezone> there is no guarentee it will work, but it did for me
[01:25] <ronnish> its a dell wireless mini 1397
[01:25] <bluezone> oh
[01:25] <bluezone> sorry
[01:25] <xdunlapx> anyone able to help with my problem?
[01:25] <bluezone> i think the end should be different, 1 sec

[01:25] <bluezone> ubnoob, it is CONTROL, ALT, f2
[01:26] <intrader> Anyone, it trying to solve the 'fans are always on problem' I am following up post by nachotronics who suggests that I execute `sudo apt-get install i8kutils gkrellm gkrellm-i8k`. However apt-get fails with the last one. I then find its source and try to compile - the .gz file does not have ./configure.
[01:27] <YankDownUnder> intrader, apt-cache search gkrellm | grep i8k
[01:27] <zaery> I just tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, and i got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554229/ how do i find out what package is the culprit? (I don't touch pre-release stuff) and i have no pinned packages
[01:27] <ubnoob> I'm back, anyone know how to get the alt-f2 key to work again?
[01:27] <bluezone> jesus, it is Control + alt + f2
[01:27] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Hmmm....seems that there IS NOT an i8k package....la la la...
[01:27] <bluezone> and not only alt + f2
[01:27] <redrain> bluezone
[01:28] <redrain> okay
[01:28] <hylian> ubnoob sometimes alt-f2 doesn't work because at start up nautilus isn't running, are your desktop icons gone?
[01:28] <redrain> is it just my username and password
[01:28] <ubnoob> bluezone- i know that but it dosnt work!
[01:28] <redrain> sorry my comp restarted
[01:28] <bluezone> redrain, oh, so is it working now?
[01:28] <hylian> ubnoob, did you see my post?
[01:28] <redrain> sorry what did you say for me to do
[01:28] <The_Maverick> im using xubuntu. is there an application that could add icons easily? i currently have compiz and emerald
[01:28] <redrain> i lost your post
[01:28] <clon00b> hi, I just got a new laptop and I want to clone my desktop ubuntu installation to the new laptop. It has windows installed already & I want to have the cloned ubuntu beside the currently installed win. I got no external hdd, Can anyone please give me a hint ?
[01:28] <xdunlapx> i think im going to submit it as a bug. it shouldn't drop me to a prompt and expect me to do something.
[01:29] <milamber> !clone |  clon00b
[01:29] <ubnoob> hylain- no sorry i didnt see your post
[01:29] <bluezone> redrain, uhh, well, i use sudo modprobe iwl3945 but now i think you have to change the last statement to something else
[01:29] <dezine> I have a weird question but hopefully there's a solution. I have laptop with Ubuntu that has a half broken screen, ok more like 1/4. Anyway to treat the unbroken part as the actual screen? So everything doesn't stretch into the broken area?
[01:29] <hylian> ubnoob, is any of your desktop icons missing? because if nautilus doesn't start, alt-f2 does not work.
[01:30] <bluezone> redrain, something relevant to your network card driver basically, sorry i dont know much about modprobe :S
[01:30] <ubnoob> hylian: no icons missing because i use docky
[01:30] <mactimes> Is there a fix - not a work around -  for the avahi-daemon mDNS issue yet?
[01:30] <redrain> was this for a broadcom card?
[01:30] <bluezone> no it was for an intel card
[01:30] <watermains> !nvidia
[01:30] <clon00b> milamber: thanks, how about configs? home folder?
[01:30] <redrain> hmmm
[01:30] <ubnoob> how can i check nautilus?
[01:30] <watermains> hmmm, not much help, I've already seen that and its not working
[01:31] <redrain> anyone else know how to get a dell wireless mini card 1397 working ?
[01:31] <redrain> thanks BlueZone
[01:31] <xdunlapx> Anyone able to help me?
[01:31] <hylian> ubnoob, that could be your problem then. try adding this as a start up app:  nautilus --no-default-window
[01:31] <redrain> i will try to find something on that
[01:31] <zaery> clon00b: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[01:31] <bluezone> kk
[01:31] <ubnoob> hylian: from the command line?
[01:32] <intrader> YankDownUnder, I can't find it.
[01:32] <hylian> no from system-prefernces-startup applications.
[01:32] <zaery> I just tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, and i got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554229/ how do i find out what package is the culprit? (I don't touch pre-release stuff) and i have no pinned packages
[01:32] <milamber> clon00b: for an exact exact copy you might want to look into dd: from the terminal do: man dd
[01:33] <hylian> ubnoob, from system-prefernces-startup applications.
[01:33] <jrib> zaery: read the files they ask you to include in the bug report :)
[01:33] <zaery> jrib, but that's a big folder of stuff.....
[01:33] <clon00b> milamber: ya, I saw that, but it needs a external hdd I think, Can I clone a partition to another partition using dd ?
[01:33] <jrib> zaery: btw I had the same issue, had to remove some xorg package and everything worked.  It should contain dated directories each with update logs inside
[01:34] <crawler> dezine, very interesting question..no idea how to go about it, but one possibility might be to make compiz window rules, so all your windows open up in the general area of the good portion of the screen.
[01:34] <mrothhh> any app after you instelled ubuntu to do software raid on mirror disk
[01:34] <zaery> jrib, ah, will do then :)
[01:34] <hylian> ubnoob, also, once you add it, you will have to rebbot
[01:35] <jrib> zaery: if you're not sure what to do, feel free to pastebin the logs and poke me.  It could be the same issue I had
[01:35] <ubnoob> ok, i'll try to reboot now
[01:35] <milamber> clon00b: yes.
[01:35] <crawler> dezine: you could also make a dock with awn in the broken part of your screen, and set it so no windows can cover it
[01:35] <intrader> YankDownUnder, I find the package in 'http://packages.debian.org/source/lenny/gkrellm-i8k'. However,, when I unpack the .gz file, I don't find ./configure
[01:35] <ubnoob> Thanks for your help- i'll try it now
[01:36] <crawler> dezine just a couple ideas :D
[01:36] <intrader> YankDownUnder, tell me if I am intruding. I will understand.
[01:36] <crawler> dezine: for awn, the setting is panel mode, i think
[01:37] <hylian> ubnoob, ok
[01:38] <shcherbak> intrader: if you got source for release (debian) it is already configured (for debian). Either get "universl" source or run make
[01:38] <dezine> Thanks for the tips crawler. I could buy a new screen but I don't think it's worth it at this stage so I'll try those.
[01:38] <hylian> ubottu, what version are you?
[01:39] <hylian> !version
[01:39] <crawler> dezine: is it a clean break, as in  a straight line?
[01:39] <shcherbak> !ubottu
[01:39] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Sorry, I was fighting back the floodwaters...wassup?
[01:39] <shcherbak> hylian: i think it is supyboy
[01:39] <dezine> It's weird. It's just white.
[01:39] <shcherbak> supybot
[01:40] <Pici> !botclone | hylian
[01:40] <Adlai_> trying to upgrade with update-manager -d and do-release-upgrade -d , but I keep getting the error "Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages"
[01:40] <hylian> shcherbak, i am afraid i don't understand your statement.
[01:40] <Adlai_> anyone know how I can figure out which packages cause this error
[01:40] <Guest75713> hey
[01:40] <intrader> shcherbak, YankDownUnder, I am having problems compiling a debbian package for ubuntu
[01:40] <Pici> Adlai_: Are you trying to upgrade to Natty?
[01:40] <Adlai_> or how to try to upgrade manually?
[01:40] <hylian> !me nods.
[01:40] <Adlai_> Pici, yeah, but #ubuntu+1 is silent
[01:40]  * hylian nods
[01:40] <Guest75713> Does anyone know a terminal command to revert all settings to defaults?
[01:40] <dezine> So I guess I'd say a clean break. Or dead pixels? Just takes up the chunk of the bottom.
[01:40] <Blueleaf> anyone know how to get RDP working on ubuntu
[01:40] <Pici> Adlai_: You may want to check the topic there then, there are issues at the moment.
[01:41] <guest9187> Problem0s!! The volume Filesystem root has only ***MB disc space remaining
[01:41] <shcherbak> ubottu: tell hylian about ubottu
[01:41] <YankDownUnder> intrader, apt-get build-essential => unpack source, run "./configure --prefix=/usr" => wait => compile with "sudo make && make install && ldconfig" => easy?
[01:41] <crawler> dezine:  that should be easy then, yea just go for the empty awn dock at the bottom set to panel mode, it should suffice
[01:41] <Adlai_> Pici, yeah, it says something about lots of package updates, which could be it, but it would be nice to get some output saying exactly what dependency problems it's seeing so I can verify that
[01:41] <LoganJRuff> YankDownUnder, profit!
[01:41] <dezine> I guess that'll do. Thanks.
[01:41] <hylian> hmm, interesting.
[01:41] <arunce> guest9187: try "sudo apt-get clean"
[01:41] <Adlai_> Pici, but thanks
[01:41] <YankDownUnder> LoganJRuff, Profit is good.
[01:42] <crawler> dezine: or maybe even a regular gnome-panel will work ok...but with awn you will have more options
[01:42] <YankDownUnder> Time for food.
[01:42] <crawler> dezine good luck ;-D
[01:42] <Guest75713> anyone know how to reset all settings to defaults from cmd line?
[01:42] <clon00b> milamber: thank you, gonna try that..
[01:43] <guest9187> arunce: Done: Check!
[01:43] <dezine> Thanks! I'll pop in if I figure anything else out
[01:43] <intrader> YankDownUnder, wow that is a mouthful!
[01:43] <bluezone> alright now my system still refuses too boot, at the begining there is an error "init: ureadahead process id (340) has terminated with status 5" any ideas? the sysboots, but it does not give me a GUI it gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2
[01:45] <intrader> YankDownUnder, first command gives me 'E: Invalid operation build-essential'
[01:46] <Adlai_> intrader, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:46] <shcherbak> intrader: cd to source and make
[01:46] <shcherbak> !make
[01:47] <shcherbak> intrader: make will give you errors most likely
[01:47] <shcherbak> intrader: dependencies and configs
[01:48] <Blueleaf> anyone know how to get RDP working on ubuntu

[01:48] <FloridaGuy> im in a live session right now...on a usb flash drive.....installed gparted..its asking for root password....what is root pass for a live session ?
[01:49] <shcherbak> !ops
[01:49] <jrib> shcherbak: yes?
[01:49] <Tilt-GOD> bluezone: read yer syslog
[01:49] <bluezone> Tilt-GOD, good idea actually lmao
[01:49] <Tilt-GOD> :)\
[01:49] <intrader> Adlai, that is working - taking some time.
[01:49] <jrib> FloridaGuy: it's not asking you for a root password.  What exactly did you do?  What is "it" in your sentence?
[01:50] <jrib> shcherbak:
[01:50] <mstfsnr> hello. is there anyone familiar with internal mobile broadband modems and 3g configs in ubuntu ?
[01:50] <Tilt-GOD> FloridaGuy: shouldnt be one
[01:51] <mdx> i'm running linux from usb stick, i'm trying to install ubuntu 10.10 but i'm getting gparted crash...
[01:51] <milamber> mdx: you can't upgrade on a stick
[01:51] <mdx> milamber, i'm trying to install from usb
[01:51] <mdx> milamber, i used Netbootin
[01:51] <FloridaGuy> mstfsnr: it says enter administrative password
[01:52] <intrader> YankDownUnder, unfortunately the 'unpack source' gives me a folder 'i8krellm-2.5' without ./configure - because they tell me it is preconfigured for debbian
[01:52] <FloridaGuy> on the live cd session im in
[01:52] <milamber> mdx: ahh. ok. i thought you were running 10.04 and trying to upgrade
[01:52] <jrib> FloridaGuy: you need to tell us what you are doing.  The live session has a user called "ubuntu" with a blank password, so you can sudo without having to enter any password
[01:52] <Tilt-GOD> mdx: checksum the image you used to make the usb thumbdrive, if it checks out.... start gpartd from a terminal using sudo

[01:58] <bubuzzz> hello everyone,
[01:58] <bubuzzz> is there any software that allows auto sync (using ssh, ftp...) from my local folder with the remote space ?
[01:58] <milamber> bubuzzz: check out rsync
[01:58] <Gerwin> scp
[01:59] <Adlai_> bubuzzz, dropbox?
[01:59] <dabestharpis> milamber: Here is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/554234/
[02:00] <TurmptTarp> is this the real ubuntu channel
[02:00] <TurmptTarp> ok good
[02:00] <bubuzzz> Adlai_, thought that dropbox only allows sync with its own server
[02:00] <Adlai_> bubuzzz, gotta admit, I don't really know what you want
[02:00] <bubuzzz> milamber, Gerwin : thank guys, will check them
[02:00] <intrader> shcherbak, thanks for following, but as you say most likely I will have problems doing make. Is there a downside to doing that?
[02:00] <fbnts> Hi, I am having trouble with an ubuntu system.  It has been compromised and every evening it floods my network.  I have tracked it down (ps -aux | grep perl) give the following
[02:00] <fbnts> www-data 22967 70.2  0.1   3912  1520 ?        R    00:44  51:40 /usr/bin/perl ./x <IP_ADDRESS> 6667 0
[02:01] <milamber> dabestharpis: you are already have the desktop installed. what exactly are you trying to do?
[02:01] <TurmptTarp> What do you recommend I do to avoid law enforcement ? i have traversed into some bad people and they might just have the power to get me into some trouble by manipulating the truth of events that haven taken place
[02:01] <Adlai_> fbnts, remove that x file
[02:01] <bubuzzz> Adlai_, i need to develop my site locally and then upload to the hosting space
[02:01] <TurmptTarp> this relates to ubuntu
[02:01] <fbnts> I have removed the files associated with it but it keeps coming back
[02:01] <Adlai_> bubuzzz, oh, yeah, you want rsync
[02:01] <fbnts> It had put something in the crontab for www-data which I removed
[02:01] <TurmptTarp> because what do u recommend i do about windows 7 and my ubuntu install? should i erase everything and just install ubuntu with a huge password?
[02:01] <bubuzzz> Adlai_, yup. will do that :D
[02:01] <jrib> fbnts: format, reinstall
[02:02] <mstfsnr> noone trying to connect via 3g on ubuntu or my timing is just awful ? :P
[02:02] <shcherbak> intrader: no, make is just "pre install". Just revove folder to clean up after.
[02:02] <shcherbak> remove
[02:02] <fbnts> I was dreading that - its a mythtv backend and will be an absolute pain
[02:02] <zaery> bubuzz, I agree with adlai, rsync is the way
[02:02] <Adlai_> fbnts, I would blow away your apache folder and try again, but if you want to track it down you probably can if you read that x script
[02:02] <jrib> fbnts: once a system is compromised that's really the only solution
[02:02] <Adlai_> fbnts, at the very least start by removing execute perms
[02:03] <fbnts> yeah, I did find a forum post with a similar issue.  I did find / -user www-data and removed all suspicious files
[02:03] <fbnts> is it normal to have items in /proc owned by www-data?
[02:03] <Adlai_> fbnts, I'd like to see the script if you can post it somewhere
[02:03] <Adlai_> fbnts, absolutely not
[02:04] <Adlai_> fbnts, haha ok, yeah, your system's probably hosed if it's messing with /proc
[02:04] <fbnts> this time the x file is /dev/shm/ddos
[02:04] <fbnts> but has been in /var/tmp
[02:04] <zaery> jrib, from the bottom of this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554232/ it looks like some xorg thing is the offender, but i can't tell which one
[02:04] <nit-wit> TurmptTarp, call 911
[02:04] <Adlai_> fbnts, yeah that sounds more than a naive attempt, just format and reinstall, sorry
[02:05] <jrib> zaery: looks like mine.  In my case, I: sudo aptitude remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[02:05] <fbnts> ok looks like I will have to backup my mythtv db
[02:05] <shcherbak> fbnts: NO!
[02:05] <intrader> YankDownUnder, when you say 'wait' what do you mean in 'intrader, apt-get build-essential => unpack source, run "./configure --prefix=/usr" => wait => compile with "sudo make && make install && ldconfig" => easy?'
[02:05] <Adlai_> fbnts, the only backing up you should be doing is with a pen and paper
[02:05] <fbnts> can I keep my recordings or do I need a completely clean machine?
[02:05] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Yeah--rrrrr => running configure does make you wait...
[02:05] <Adlai_> fbnts, clean the machine completely
[02:05] <shcherbak> fbnts: install or make keylogger, remove private stuff from machine and wait.
[02:06] <KM0201> TurmptTarp: lol, avoid law enforcement?.. I'm reminded of Jim Carrey's line... "Stop breaking the law ____hole"
[02:06] <fbnts> I also have 300gb of DVD ISOs - could they be compromised?
[02:06] <Adlai_> fbnts, if you want to take the recordings somewhere isolated and put them back on the machine after a reinstall to see if they're corrupted, go for it, but you might need to reinstall a second time if your machine gets compromised again
[02:06] <YankDownUnder> Compromised now.
[02:06] <intrader> YankDownUnder, the unpacked stuff does not have the ./configure file (they say because it is preconfigure for debbian)
[02:07] <shcherbak> fbnts: and make sure to run (if you have) all, but logs in ro mode
[02:07] <fbnts> I could copy them to my windoze desktop.  Would a virus scanner on windoze detect if they have been compromised?
[02:07] <YankDownUnder> intrader,  Then I'm stopped on that note. Unless you run like "autoconf" and "automake" => I know that gKrellm has fallen behind...
[02:07] <dabestharpis> milamber: I am trying to install a GUI
[02:08] <YankDownUnder> Nothing on MS Windoze actually detects ANYTHING.
[02:08] <milamber> dabestharpis: according to that pastebin you have one. try typing from the terminal: startx
[02:08] <shcherbak> YankDownUnder: like that, nothing detects anything
[02:09] <Adlai_> fbnts, you could give it a shot, but I would expect a windows virus scanner to miss linux viruses almost certainly
[02:09] <intrader> YankDownUnder, it is a problem with the 'fan running all the time regardless of CPU load or temperature'. I found someone that cured if with that packaged that is not configurable to me.
[02:09] <fbnts> btw I have the ddos.tgz which has the scripts in (I saw someone mention that they wanted to see a copy) and the proc that is owned by www-data is /proc/31556/
[02:09] <Adlai_> fbnts, wait, is everything in /proc owned by www-data, or just that one process folder?
[02:09] <fbnts> yeah I tried rkhunter but it didnt pick it up
[02:10] <coldfront_> anyone know a better on screen keyboard other then onboard?
[02:10] <jrib> fbnts: out of curiousity do you know how you were compromised?  System not up to date on security updates?
[02:10] <fbnts> no, just the /proc/31556 tree
[02:10] <intrader> YankDownUnder, nothing like the problems that fbnts has!
[02:10] <Adlai_> fbnts, oh that's normal
[02:10] <akhyariz> exit
[02:10] <Adlai_> fbnts, yeah I'd like to see that folder, can you upload it somewhere?
[02:10] <YankDownUnder> intrader, What about apt-get install fancontrol => have you tried that one yet?
[02:11] <fbnts> yeah, give me 2 mins
[02:11] <bluezone> alright now my system still refuses too boot, at the begining there is an error "init: ureadahead process id (340) has terminated with status 5 or 1, changes sometimes" any ideas? the sys boots, but it does not give me a GUI it gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2
[02:11] <Adlai_> fbnts, preferably somewhere it'll last for a couple days, I have to make sure my secure install is up to date before I unpack it there
[02:11] <fbnts> yeah no probs I will put it on my vds
[02:12] <intrader> YankDownUnder, would that be so simple? - it does install - should I reboot?
[02:12] <YankDownUnder> intrader, I'd reckon so
[02:12] <zaery> jrib, yup, that fixed it. I don't know why nouveau is doing anything in my proprietary driven nvidia system though......
[02:13] <jrib> zaery: probably installed by default?  I don't know
[02:13] <Steven_> just saw this screenshot: http://vindsl.com/images/pidgin-18-nov-2010.png anyone know the program on the right side in the background? the one that displays all the information
[02:13] <aeon-ltd> Steven_: conky
[02:14] <bastidrazor> Steven_: that looks like conky with lua
[02:14] <fbnts> this is the pastebin of find / -user www-data   http://pastebin.com/eRascqru
[02:14] <intrader> YankDownUnder,  I have lots and lots of open sfuff,, that will take some time. thanks. I hope that it helps. I must leave as wife is calling. I hope that it does not flood where you are!
[02:14] <OvermindDL1> Greetings, I have a bit of an odd issue.  I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed, and I SSH in, start x11vnc, and vnc in over an ssh tunnel.  It works fine for some-odd period of time, and, even when doing nothing, the vnc connection drops, reports "caught XIO error:" then "14/01/2011 18:57:13 deleted 60 tile_row polling images.", then closes itself, then about one second later the ssh connection loses connection
[02:14] <fbnts> and the file is at http://www.multiplix.co.uk/ddos.tgz
[02:14] <OvermindDL1> When I get someone to check the computer it is fully locked up, on but the screen is black, no HD activity (which never happens, there is *always* activity), etc...
[02:14] <YankDownUnder> intrader, Can't upset the wife - I do it all the time - not good.
[02:15] <zaery> jrib, yeah, i guess installing it by default would make sense, and i've had this thing for years, now that i think about it, i could've installed it one time while messing around :D
[02:16] <fbnts> oh btw although it keeps installing in different locations its the same file each time.  the x file has an echo line: Enjoy FloodBot based on OverKill
[02:16] <fbnts> if that helps
[02:16] <clon00b> !clone | clon00b
[02:16] <JoshDreamland> I have been using Ubuntu long enough now that I could never make the switch back to Windows, but there are some things I can just not put up with any longer.
[02:16] <Adlai_> fbnts, yeah ok, can you do a find / -user www-data as root?
[02:17] <JoshDreamland> 1) Every time some asshole presses my power button, he gets a shot at pressing enter before I can press escape to shut down my laptop.
[02:17] <Adlai_> fbnts, it looks like you didn't get everything, but maybe you did
[02:17] <JoshDreamland> And my power and escape buttons are right next to each other.
[02:17] <fbnts> that was as root
[02:17] <CIASquid> !language | JoshDreamland
[02:17] <JoshDreamland> I can't set to suspend, because ubuntu only successfully suspends when it's not plugged in.
[02:17] <Adlai_> fbnts, oh ok, guess some things are just empty
[02:18] <Adlai_> fbnts, alright well thanks, I'll take a look at this this weekend hopefully
[02:18] <OvermindDL1> Any thoughts about my x11vnc causing ubuntu to lock up?
[02:18] <Adlai_> fbnts, see my pm
[02:18] <OvermindDL1> Does it reliably within a few hours of connection
[02:19] <ArchTangent> hello, I need to know if moonlight supports netflix yet, so does it?
[02:19] <JoshDreamland> 2) If the nm-applet doesn't have a network it's set to connect to, it will never show! I am left completely helpless as I try to scrounge up some resource for help. I only recently realized it would show itself and connect if I set nearby connections to be activated automatically.
[02:20] <JoshDreamland> Why in God's name is the nm applet the sole authority on what I connect to?! Isn't there some other way to connect to a network?
[02:20] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:20] <Adlai_> JoshDreamland, wpa_supplicant
[02:21] <JoshDreamland> Thanks, Adlai_; I'll write that one down for next time I'm in a pinch.
[02:21] <coldfront_> is there a interface like aero in win 7 where if you bring a window to the left or right of the screen it snaps?
[02:21] <Adlai_> coldfront_ I think kde does that but it's been a while
[02:21] <ArchTangent> hello, I need to know if moonlight supports netflix yet, so does it?
[02:22] <JoshDreamland> Third and more recently, Ubuntu has decided that all portable media should be mounted as root. I have no permissions to my flash drive unless I call "sudo nautilus" and make my changes with that new window. Even then, the write speed is only about 100kbps. What is happening?
[02:22] <coldfront_> umm yeah i like gnome
[02:22] <Adlai_> JoshDreamland, depends on the permissions on the actual flash drive, if you're coming from windows or something they'll be all futzed with, but you can chown them all and fix that
[02:23] <JoshDreamland> I didn't realize the NTFS had a place to put permissions
[02:23] <Adlai_> JoshDreamland, dunno about the write speed, you should check that you're using USB 2.0 and that your device is fully powered
[02:23] <Adlai_> JoshDreamland, it doesn't really, that's part of the problem; the ntfs driver has to fake it
[02:24] <JoshDreamland> It's doing a horrible job XD
[02:24] <Adlai_> it's doing the best job it can, ntfs's semantics don't match up with unix filesystem semantics
[02:24] <JoshDreamland> Yep
[02:25] <JoshDreamland> Oh, this is new. Now it just reports "the permissions of \"usb0\" could not be determined."
[02:25] <hiexpo> sup all
[02:26] <JoshDreamland> chown: changing ownership of `usb0': Operation not permitted
[02:27] <TornadoChas3r> Anyone know a good preferably free hard drive imager?
[02:27] <JoshDreamland> When I drag a file into it, it gives ownership to root
[02:27] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:27] <TornadoChas3r> I found partimage, but it says it does not support ext4
[02:27] <aeon-ltd> TornadoChas3r: clonezilla?
[02:28] <KM0201> TornadoChas3r: clonezilla is pretty awesome...
[02:28] <KM0201> TornadoChas3r: especially if you want to image a whole drivfe
[02:29] <TornadoChas3r> okay, ill give it a shot
[02:29] <PVCrew> i had a couple questions for anyone about setting up ubuntu on me netbook
[02:29] <KM0201> TornadoChas3r: they have some good walkthroughs on their website
[02:29] <KM0201> PVCrew: ask
[02:30] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: dd
[02:30] <JoshDreamland> Can someone recommend an 8GB-ready flash drive format Windows and Linux can both read?
[02:30] <KM0201> JoshDreamland: ntfs?
[02:30] <TornadoChas3r> btw sta7ic i was able to fix my problem
[02:30] <PVCrew> I'm trying to get it to boot from usb and its starts to boot but it just stays on loading screen
[02:30] <JoshDreamland> That's as good as it can get?
[02:30] <alberto> KM0201: For compatibility the best is FAT32
[02:30] <Alex__K> I just upgraded my motherboard and CPU and now have an Intel RAID controller instead of an nVidia one. The array shows up in /dev/mapper and I can use fdisk to create NTFS partitions that show up in Windows, but I can't mount the partitions since it gives me "The device doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS" no matter what I try. Any ideas?
[02:30] <coldfront_> PVCrew, i just set up unr on my tablet
[02:31] <KM0201> PVCrew: the loading screen?... the ubuntu graphic, or where you choose to try ubuntu
[02:31] <JoshDreamland> I have it FAT32 now, but I'm getting these permission errors
[02:31] <KM0201> alberto: for 8gig?.. maybe... but either one, fat32 or ntfs, will work fine
[02:32] <TornadoChas3r> for some reason i can write to the hard disk again, i was able to get into the recoevry mode finally. But i noticed apt-get still gives me that error, if i recall someone else had a similar error with apt-get as well so i know better and im using aptitude now
[02:32] <Tobei> Anyone else run into the problem with the ubuntu 10.10 install cd / dvd freezing as soon as you choose an option?
[02:32] <alberto> KM0201: Yea but there are a lot of devices that will not recognize NTFS, like media players and older BIOS
[02:32] <TornadoChas3r> I was able to reinstall the newest kernel image and ran some other updates and so far so good
[02:32] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: dd is a linux command that copys block for block or something, just man dd
[02:32] <PVCrew> i changed it to boot from usb, it doesnt go to the unbuntu graphic at all it
[02:32] <KM0201> alberto: well he didn't mention he had an old machine... and he'd alread said he was having a fat32 issue.
[02:33] <KM0201> PVCrew: ok.. so what happens, you boot hte USB.. do you get a menu that lets you "try" ubuntu?
[02:33] <alberto> Before i recommended FAT32 ;)
[02:33] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: good to hear the good news
[02:33] <alberto> Ok, i'm having some issues with an USB card reader, wondering if someone can help
[02:33] <PVCrew> no not at all, its not giving me the menu...my bad im completly new to this and trying to figure it out
[02:34] <chrislabeard> anyone ever set up postfix on uverse? I'm having trouble getting emails from my server
[02:34] <JoshDreamland> Formatting the drive fixed my problem, for no particular reason
[02:34] <KM0201> PVCrew: no problem... how did you create the USB?
[02:34] <TornadoChas3r> Well i just notcied one problem, i just installed the newsest kernel and now its hanging at Checking quotas. I may have to boot back into the older kernel or recovery mode and see if i can fix that /:
[02:34] <KB1JWQ> chrislabeard: Is there an inbound or outbound port 25 block?
[02:34] <alberto> The card shows, but everything in it is read only
[02:34] <Bing0> Hi (ubuntu 10.10 32bit).  I lost the ability to use my WINDOWS+E (and compiz expo) so I can move to another desktop.  Is there a reset I can do to get it back?  Thanks.
[02:34] <chrislabeard> KB1JWQ: I'm not sure how do I check that
[02:34] <alberto> I can't reset the permissions, either
[02:35] <Tobei> I was running ubuntu 10.04 using wubi, and decided to try out a partitioned install (true dual-boot) and now I can't get it to install off the cd or dvd....

[02:37] <sta7ic> Alex__K: you need to list the partitions not the device itself
[02:37] <mstfsnr> anyone had problems and preferably solutions to 3g modem problems in ubuntu ? :)
[02:37] <sta7ic> Alex__K: try fdisk -l /device name
[02:38] <canthus13> chrislabeard: Try port 587 instead.
[02:38] <ChipDSnow> I have a 27" widescreen monitor attached to my laptop, every once in a while, Ubuntu will shut either screen, sometimes both, and will flip flop the priority monitor around.  Is there anyway that I can keep the monitors permanently the way I want them (even when shutting off the attached monitor) and not have Ubuntu freak out?
[02:38] <chrislabeard> canthus13: Where do I change th port
[02:38] <canthus13> chrislabeard: depends on the mail client. Or the telnet client.
[02:38] <Tobei> I followed the step-by-step instructions given at ubuntu.com for both cd and dvd installation and both discs freeze when an option is chosen at the "try ubuntu, install ubuntu" menu (yes, I've tried them all on both the cd and dvd). I don't know how to proceed, I'd really like to install ubuntu on its own partition(s)...

[02:40] <Tobei> Sc00t3r:I waited an average of 7 minutes (about how long it takes me to make a cofee and go outside for a smoke)

[02:40] <Sc00t3r> Tobei: What are your system specifications? Also, have you tried using the USB installation?
[02:40] <sta7ic> Alex__K: sorry looks like u did already
[02:40] <sta7ic> Alex__K: hmmm
[02:41] <TornadoChas3r> urg, new problem. It was working fine I was able to boot, now it wont start it hangs on checking quotas
[02:41] <KB1JWQ> chrislabeard: #postfix exists for these questions.
[02:41] <Sc00t3r> canthus13: What's the issue? Perhaps I can provide an opinion?
[02:41] <sta7ic> Alex__K: this is the problem, not sure why it doesnt think its ntfs, you may need to change the partition label type to NTFS
[02:42] <canthus13> Sc00t3r: chrislabeard having problems with port 25 being blocked.

[02:42] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:42] <Tobei> •Sc00t3r• And I can't try the USB installer as I don't have a USB flash drive to try it with...
[02:42] <sta7ic> Alex__K: what label does it have for fdisk, u might need to re-label it as NTFS
[02:42] <Kalisto> Ok trying to install j2ee and getting this: ./j2eesdk-1_4_03-linux.bin

[02:42] <Sc00t3r> Tobei: I say try using the USB install. If you don't have a USB disk, I suggest picking one up. It's an overall better method.
[02:43] <Sc00t3r> chrislabeard: Are you trying to run a mail server, or are you unable to connect to one?
[02:43] <Alex__K> sta7ic: How would I check that again?

[02:44] <Sc00t3r> chrislabeard: Have you checked your router's firewall settings to ensure that you are not having the port blocked by the router? It's pretty common to have that happen.

[02:44] <diegoviola> mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/soundsnc/.screen-profiles': Permission denied
[02:44] <Sc00t3r> KB1JWQ: I had an issue where I had to route port 21 to get an inbound signal, along with port 3389. I wouldn't consider it unlikely if the FTP port is sometimes blocked by a router.
[02:44] <diegoviola> any idea?
[02:44] <FloodBot3> diegoviola: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:45] <Sc00t3r> diegoviola: Run the command via 'sudo'.

[02:45] <KB1JWQ> Sc00t3r: You don't "route" ports, you route networks. :-)
[02:45] <Sc00t3r> KB1JWQ: Forward, sorry. You should know what I mean. =/
[02:45] <Tobei> Guess I'll just try again when I can get my hands on a USB stick. There's no way I'm going to do the wubi thing again, that was atrocious. Thanks for the advice Sc00t3r

[02:45] <leandro_> Help Banshee
[02:45] <diegoviola> oh i can
[02:45] <OvermindDL1> Greetings, I have a bit of an odd issue.  I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed, and I SSH in, start x11vnc, and vnc in over an ssh tunnel.  It works fine for some-odd period of time, and, even when doing nothing, the vnc connection drops, reports "caught XIO error:" then "14/01/2011 18:57:13 deleted 60 tile_row polling images.", then closes itself, then about one second later the ssh connection loses connection
[02:45] <OvermindDL1> When I get someone to check the computer it is fully locked up, on but the screen is black, no HD activity (which never happens, there is *always* activity), etc...
[02:46] <JoshDreamland> leandro_: What's the matter?
[02:46] <livewire> cowlicks: Thank you, I will try it.
[02:46] <krabador> Hi people, i'vre some troble with huawei k3715 usb mobile modem
[02:46] <krabador> I"ve maverick
[02:46] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:47] <Sc00t3r> diegoviola: As I am saying, run the program via sudo. Generally, when a directory is unable to be created, the user running the program doesn't have the required permissions by default to do it. Thus, Sudo is required.
[02:47] <leandro_> as set up banshee for not allowing to delete files
[02:47] <krabador> It sometimes works , sometimes nor
[02:47] <sta7ic> Alex__K: under fdisk, according to your pastebin, it looks like you have a volume label of hidden ntfs instead of label 7 which is NTFS not sure if that will fix ur issue but it would be where i start i think read about it i dont want to corrupt your data =P
[02:47] <leandro_> How do I set banshee to disallow delete files?
[02:47] <krabador> It's instable
[02:47] <leandro_> sorry for my english
[02:47] <curiousx> Hi all
[02:48] <krabador> Leandro, are you italian?
[02:48] <powertool08> Could somebody please help me with a contact form on php/nginx? I'm getting 502 Bad Gateway on form submit.
[02:48] <Alex__K> sta7ic: I created the partition using 7 for the type (HPFS/NTFS), was that correct?
[02:48] <leandro_> speak spanish
[02:48] <sta7ic> bluezone_: try running 'additional drivers/restricted drivers' or see if your video card manufac has a better driver
[02:48] <Alex__K> sta7ic: The array's blank, so don't worry about messing with it
[02:48] <sta7ic> Alex__K: in pastebin, it says 'hidden ntfs'
[02:48] <JoshDreamland> leandro_: Why would you want to disable that?
[02:48] <leandro_> I want to disable delete files in banshee
[02:49] <sta7ic> Alex__K: maybe yer right hold on let me check mine
[02:49] <bluezone_> sta7ic, that's the thing, i can't seem to install the drivers, but anyway, using the drivers in aditional drivers still doesn't fix my boot problem
[02:49] <Curly_Q> Hey guys I just re-installed Xubuntu and I hit the command prompt   TOP and  I see Xorg there. Does that mean that I am still connected to Xorg after upgrading the kernel?
[02:49] <bsmith093> whats the regex for "trim everything off the filename between blah and the extension"
[02:49] <Alex__K> sta7ic: I don't see "Hidden NTFS" anywhere :\
[02:49] <leandro_> when i press delete, for example
[02:50] <Curly_Q> That is reminiscent of Windows Update.
[02:50] <bugs_bugger> hey guys. does anyone know how to build sources in a way to make them portable?
[02:51] <bluezone_> sta7ic, that's the thing, i can't seem to install the drivers, but anyway, using the drivers in aditional drivers still doesn't fix my boot problem
[02:51] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Portable in what way?  Architecture? kernel revisions?  Etc...?
[02:51] <leandro_> i like banshee, but delete files from the program is one fail, for my
[02:51] <bluezone_> sorry,
[02:51] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:51] <krabador> Please help me with huawei k3715 on 10.10
[02:51] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: uh....arc, i guess?
[02:52] <KM0201> krabador: is tha ta wireless device?
[02:52] <sta7ic> Alex__K: why is the device so weird, im used to seeing /dev/sda2 etc
[02:52] <Curly_Q> Oh! Sorry I typed in the Terminal, sorry for the Command Prompt and the above still follows.
[02:52] <Alex__K> It's a RAID array
[02:52] <sta7ic> Alex__K: lvm also?
[02:52] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: i just know about a program (Blender) that is executable on the most linux distros right away. it has glib included, if that is of any matter.
[02:52] <Alex__K> sta7ic: I don't know
[02:52] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Hmm, that is difficult, the exectuable file format does not easily allow multiple architectures in one binary.  What architectures?
[02:53] <curiousx> how can i run the "language manager" ass root from the terminal for example "gksu <language manager" ?
[02:53] <curiousx> please helpme
[02:53] <Alex__K> sta7ic: My old motherboard had an nVidia controller and it worked fine out of the box, but this new one has an Intel controller and it doesn't seem to want to work with Ubuntu
[02:53] <curiousx> i am helping other user =)
[02:53] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Blender is 32-bit x86 by default, which will work on 32-bit and 64-bit x86 systems
[02:53] <KM0201> curiousx: well how about.. "gksu language manager"...lol
[02:53] <sta7ic> Alex__K: try this command 'lsvg'
[02:53] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  If all you want to support is x86, that is easy, build for 32-bit and it will run on all
[02:53] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: ah, i see
[02:53] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?
[02:54] <sta7ic> bluezone_: ok i saw video problem, safe mode, whats the boot issue other than booting into safe mode
[02:54] <Alex__K> sta7ic: Command not found, did you mean lshg or rsvg?
[02:54] <cowlicks> #mint
[02:54] <Curly_Q> Next question. What is the best IRC Client for Xubuntu?
[02:54] <cowlicks> oops
[02:55] <sta7ic> Alex__K: it changes so much for me, used to be lsvg oh well i dont know sorry sounds like a volume group more than RAID
[02:55] <curiousx> KM0201: i am trying to taruce the language from english to espanish we do everything but we dont change the language becouse 10.10 dont have a root user by default
[02:55] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  64-bit x86 will run 32-bit x86 as well since 64-bit x86 CPU's have 32-bit support with a simple kernel flag (which is built in so you do not even need to think of it other then 'it works').
[02:55] <curiousx> so y wish to run language manager whit gksu
[02:55] <KM0201> curiousx: did you go to system/admin/language support?
[02:55] <bluezone_> sta7ic, the boot issue is that it will not give me my login screen, my gui, it will shouw ubuntu 10.10 in white text with a purple background and then it will just bring me to a black, terminal screen, like a run level 1, and it will ask me my login and pass
[02:55] <cowlicks> Curly_Q: irssi
[02:55] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: but how am i going to keep all the files in one folder from which my program is executable. usually, when compiling, make would install bins into /usr/bin and libs into some other folder etc
[02:56] <curiousx> yes but dont want to change i guess that i need root privilages
[02:56] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  That is what you are supposed to do, why do you want to keep everything in one folder?
[02:56] <KM0201> curiousx: if you need root priv. it will tell you you need root priv.
[02:56] <sta7ic> bluezone_: best thing to do is turn of gdm or whatever loads X, and try to fix issue and start gdm via console so u dont have to keep rebooting after every thing u try
[02:56] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: mhh...just a second. im trying to get aim straight....
[02:56] <Curly_Q> Cowlicks I have used an older version of irssi, but what are the advantages there? Irssi was a seemingly text IRC client then. What is new with it? Does it use SSH?
[02:57] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  http://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/index.html
[02:57] <sta7ic> bluezone_: also, ./gdm start - may give you more info if u try to run the service in full (not single user) and from the console
[02:57] <bluezone_> sta7ic, but how will i fix the issue if i don't even know what wrong? :(
[02:57] <curiousx> the user i am trying to help that user and he tolme that the windows dont do anything just frizz
[02:57] <sta7ic> bluezone_: the hope is that the console will give u more info of what it doesnt like after it fails it will spit out a lot of crap
[02:58] <curiousx> excuseme my english is not to good =P
[02:58] <bluezone_> okay let me try
[02:58] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: what i would like to have is a way to compile sources that way i can wrap em up in an archive and extract em on another system and execut em right away
[02:58] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  As per the above link, technically you can put everything in, say, /usr/share/myprogram and that will work, just make a symlink to /usr/share/bin or whatever
[02:59] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Oh, so you do not care about proper installation?
[02:59] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  You can do that fine, as long as it is the right architecture, it should 'just work'
[02:59] <KM0201> curiousx: gksudo gnome-language-selector   but i don't think that will have the desired effect
[02:59] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Run it from your home directory is fine
[02:59] <curiousx> thanks KM0201 i will try =)
[03:00] <curiousx> other wise i will tell the user that install ubuntu on disk
[03:00] <Curly_Q> One of the first Linux IRC Clients I used was BitchX. That seemed to work OK at the time though.
[03:00] <curiousx> ubuntu is on VM rigth now
[03:00] <bluezone_> bitchX is too old xD
[03:01] <sta7ic> Curly_qL irssi is close to BX
[03:01] <OvermindDL1> Greetings, I have a bit of an odd issue.  I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed, and I SSH in, start x11vnc, and vnc in over an ssh tunnel.  It works fine for some-odd period of time, and, even when doing nothing, the vnc connection drops, reports "caught XIO error:" then "14/01/2011 18:57:13 deleted 60 tile_row polling images.", then closes itself, then about one second later the ssh connection loses connection
[03:01] <OvermindDL1> When I get someone to check the computer it is fully locked up, on but the screen is black, no HD activity (which never happens, there is *always* activity), etc...
[03:01] <Curly_Q> Is Irssi a SSH client?
[03:01] <OvermindDL1> Irssi is irc
[03:01] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: i got the architecture thing wrong. i dont care about that, i could build two versions, x64 and x86. but what i want to achieve is to have that program being executable right out of the archive without creating any symlinks. all dependencies should be contained in the programs folder itself
[03:01] <Curly_Q> Ipv6 compatible?
[03:02] <sta7ic> OvermindDL1: ssh is finicky over bad network cables
[03:02] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: did i get out right now?
[03:02] <Curly_Q> Why bugs bugger?
[03:02] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  That is perfectly fine, as long as the program is programmed in such a way to get all of its files from its own directory (or cwd if you prefer) it would work.
[03:02] <OvermindDL1> What is wrong with distributed a deb or something?  Or is this a very temporary program?
[03:03] <OvermindDL1> Why not just build it on the remote computers too?
[03:03] <bugs_bugger> Curly_Q: because bugs bugger ^^
[03:03] <Curly_Q> Sta7ic what does a network cable have to do with ssh?
[03:03] <OvermindDL1> I have no clue if irrsi is ipv6 compatible, although it would really surprise me if it was not.
[03:03] <bugs_bugger> well, i dont have root rights on my universitys pool :$
[03:04] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?, i am currently trying something, but more info is appreciated
[03:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  And?  users can still install it locally
[03:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  local_install
[03:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  instead of install
[03:04] <mr_chris> Does the Chromium package in Lucid stay updated with the latest Chromium releases?
[03:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  or just do not install it and run it directly
[03:04] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: darn! didnt know about that....oh my
[03:04] <krabador> Please help me with huawei k3715 on 10.10
[03:04] <OvermindDL1> mr_chris:  No, personally experience...
[03:04] <sta7ic> Curly_Q: ive seen ssh work fine, and then when in interactive mode not work, bad cable was the root cause ssh is very picky and sometimes can work then one thing crassh and burn
[03:05] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: how am i supposed to run it directly?
[03:05] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  as long as your make file supports local_install that will work fine, or as stated, just do not install it and run it directly
[03:05] <mr_chris> OvermindDL1: Personally experience?
[03:05] <Curly_Q> What is your suggestion Sta7ic?
[03:05] <krabador> It works sometimes yes and sometimes not, like not plugged
[03:05] <sta7ic> Curly_Q: nothing long shot, dont rule out a network cable to the computer u are sshing into or from thats all
[03:05] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  when you "make" it builds all the files, "make install" just copies those built files to wherever, when you just 'make' without the install you can just access those temp files directly, usually in ./bin in most setups, or whatever you set it up as
[03:05] <ZykoticK9> mr_chris, ubuntu aims for stability (thus not newest anything usually), is you want a more cutting edge Chromium https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[03:06] <krabador> Have you some thing to tell me about?
[03:06] <bugs_bugger> Curly_Q: just for common knowledge: bugger is pretty british and is an exclaim made in annoyance of s.th.
[03:06] <steff12321> hellppp, i am trying to edit a .conf file in /etc/ and it wont let me save it, what do i do?
[03:06] <mr_chris> ZykoticK9: Ok. Thanks. I'm just looking to keep with the latest stable updates. I'll go with standard chrome, then.
[03:06] <OvermindDL1> ZykoticK9:  And yet x11vnc locks up the computer...
[03:06] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: ah, i see...
[03:07] <OvermindDL1> ZykoticK9:  The one that is in the Ubuntu repository itself to boot...
[03:07] <sta7ic> Curly_Q: only reason i know this is at work, we did 'ssh command' and it would fail, but then 'ssh -i command' would work, and replaced the cabled and botjh worked, bizairre
[03:07] <ZykoticK9> OvermindDL1, then repot a bug ;)
[03:07] <OvermindDL1> My remote server is still down, no one on site yet, freaking cnv server...
[03:07] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: so, lets hope i dont need to be root to execute make in the first place...
[03:07] <steff12321> i am trying to edit a .conf file in /etc/ and it wont let me save it, what do i do?
[03:07] <Curly_Q> Sta7ic I have need to say that if an SSH Client is there an SSH Server should be at the ready. Is that sensible to you?
[03:07] <bullgard4> Why does Ubuntu need the 2 bug reporting programs bug-buddy and ubuntu-bug? Why is it not enough to have one bug reporting program?
[03:07] <sta7ic> steff12321: try 'sudo vi conf.file'
[03:08] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, use sudo or gksu depending on editor
[03:08] <mr_chris> steff12321: How are you trying to edit it? Are you editing it as root?
[03:08] <steff12321> yes, but i want to open it up as a text editor, not as a terminal window
[03:08] <steff12321> open as root
[03:08] <sta7ic> steff12321: that makes no sense
[03:08] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, "gksu gedit /etc/PATH/TO/FILE"
[03:08] <sta7ic> steff12321: vi is a text editor
[03:08] <steff12321> thanks
[03:08] <curiousx> KM0201: he doit itself xD but your help was right my friend thx =)
[03:09] <KM0201> curiousx: strange.. but.. ok
[03:09] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  No, you can run make as user, 'make install' requires root, 'make local_install' can be run as a normal user
[03:09] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: ok, nice...
[03:09] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Assuming you put in a local_install thing
[03:10] <JoshDreamland> Hey, if I have leandro_ remove a translation entry from one of Banshee's files, will that item disappear from its context menu?
[03:10] <bugs_bugger> Overm
[03:10] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1:
[03:10] <JoshDreamland> Or will it default to the english translation?
[03:10] <bugs_bugger> oops...damn....
[03:10] <OvermindDL1> Heh
[03:10] <bugs_bugger> stupid autocomplete...
[03:11] <curiousx> yes to me olso seems strange the reazon is that he has ubuntu on VM and he toldme that he did not can choose the keyboard and language =P
[03:11] <bluezone_> okay okay, now i got rid of that error message, however my system still fails to boot my GUI and only gives me a terminal similar to cntrl alt f2, I can only boot my gui in graphial safe mode, which means it is probably an issue with a video card driver i have installed, any ideas?, i am currently trying something, but more info is appreciated
[03:12] <curiousx> but i teel him that he use a little days and he install on disk =)
[03:12] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: i try if the sources are capable of handling local_install. btw, there's no such way for deb's i guess?
[03:12] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Nope, but a deb is just a .tar.gz, you can extract it locally and run them directly anyway, sometimes need to set some environment variables to get the program to run locally, but it runs
[03:13] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Well, a deb 'might' have something akin to local_install, I have never looked...
[03:13] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Hmm...
[03:13] <steff12321> what is the administrative password?
[03:13] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: well, it seems i learned some new stuff tonite....never had the idea to "file" a deb to see what it actually is....
[03:13]  * mzuverink is away: Gone and got busy
[03:14] <tensorpudding> !root | steff12321
[03:14] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Extract the .tar.gz part out with  ar vx the file.deb
[03:14]  * KM0201 embraces sudo
[03:14] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Extract the .tar.gz part out with  ar vx the_file.deb
[03:15] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: what does the vx argument do?
[03:15] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl1_ar.htm
[03:16] <ZykoticK9> bugs_bugger, you might need "tar zxvf FILE" if DEBs really are tar.gz (i didn't know that, interesting)
[03:16] <steff12321> but its asking me for an administrative password
[03:16] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  verbose and extract in other words, it extracts a data.tar.gz out of it
[03:16] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  And that has all the file information
[03:17] <breadcrumb> steff12321, what is?
[03:17] <steff12321> its asking me for an administrative password and mine is not working
[03:17] <steff12321> gksb
[03:17] <steff12321> gksb**
[03:17] <steff12321> or gedit
[03:17] <OvermindDL1> Well, deb's are not strictly .tra.gz, they are just tar's, or archives, whichever...
[03:17] <steff12321> one of those
[03:17] <OvermindDL1> ar works
[03:17] <breadcrumb> if you are running something with sudo, it requires the password of whatever user you are currently using
[03:18] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: nice...will try that asap. im just ssh-ing into my university's pool to see wether i can compile local_install....
[03:18] <yew101> umm how to start ubuntu guys
[03:18] <OvermindDL1> they contain three files, a debian-binary, the data.tar.gz, and something else
[03:18] <steff12321> i used this command

[03:19] <ubu_noob> ...how to troubeshoot this?
[03:19] <KM0201> ubu_noob: that really shouldn't cause the installer to fail.
[03:19] <KM0201> ubu_noob: actually, i think all my cd's have said that at one point or another
[03:19] <ubu_noob> KM: well, it hangs at that point
[03:20] <steff12321> yeah gksu**
[03:20] <steff12321> thats what i meant
[03:20] <yew101> hi i downloaded this: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer and i run windows 7 and i restarted after installation and i cant get it to start
[03:20] <KM0201> yew101: consider it a blessing.

[03:21] <bullgard4> yew101: What is "it"? Please cite the exact error message so that people can help you.
[03:21] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: hey, just out of curiousity: any way to get me into the sudoers file? the admins of the pool seem to know the game, its the IT chair ^^
[03:21] <donvito> how to restart my wlan0 network ?
[03:22] <steff12321> donvito : can you be more specific please? the answer for the exact question you asked is unplug your router, and plug back in, but i dont think that is what you mean
[03:22] <donvito> ifup
[03:22] <donvito> if down
[03:22] <yew101> no error message just no exe's or anything that windows can run even in C:\Ubuntu
[03:22] <donvito> that was the command looks
[03:22] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Heh, not without already having admin access.  ;-)
[03:22] <KM0201> donvito: you'll need sudo  but i think that should do it
[03:22] <donvito> i have sudo
[03:22] <donvito> just dont know the command ifup if down
[03:22] <donvito> if up wlan0 &&
[03:22] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Why not convince them to switch to Ubuntu Server Cloud, then each student can have their own virtual computer to do what they want?

[03:24] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: as i expected :D well actually i am really happy we've got ubuntu while the rest of the "mortal-crowd" pools got win7 but this also means no tinkerin with rights ^^
[03:24] <usr13> donvito: You can just restart the network
[03:24] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: well, i guess they've got their network system all figured out

[03:26] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: after all, you're supposed educate yourself in there, not to randomly spam the servers with your facourit software
[03:26] <curiousx> thx so much brothers =) see yaa
[03:26] <usr13> donvito: You can just restart the network:  service network restart
[03:27] <szocool> Hi! Can anyone help me in pk2cmd (microchip pic microcontroller programmer for linux and macos)?
[03:28] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: at least we can demand apps but i dont want to be running to my roots office everytime i'd like to try a new application :)
[03:28] <ubu_noob> Help.. cannot install 10.10 on a PC... the installer hangs at "No value set for key :  `/apps/netbook-launcher/favorites_list"
[03:28] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  As stated, try to convince them to switch to ubuntu cloud so you can get your own little virtual install.  :)
[03:29] <usr13> ubu_noob: What do you have on your PC now?
[03:29] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: how does it work? its on ubuntu servers, innit?
[03:30] <ubu_noob> usr13: there was windows, but I want to wipe that :)
[03:30] <administrator_> whq-ubu
[03:30] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Yes, but they can setup a full 'local install' of ubuntu that you have root in without affecting anyone or anything else.
[03:31] <bullgard4> ubu_noob: Please google for this exact erfror message. (I myself do not have a netbook.)
[03:31] <usr13> ubu_noob: I've not seen that error, but at what stage of the install process are you at?
[03:31] <x_> need help in ubuntu 10.10 have an nvidia card that has hdmi audio, pulse audio volume control shows it outputting to my programs everything is unmuted... but no sound
[03:31] <usr13> ubu_noob: How far did it get before stalling?
[03:31] <ubu_noob> bullgard: I tried google -- no luck
[03:32] <bullgard4> ubu_noob: I am sorry that I cannot help you.
[03:32] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, my googling only turned up the same error (no suggestions/solution, seems like it's for an unrelated bug) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/658970/comments/4
[03:32] <plupke> ubu_noob: use the normal version of ubuntu, the launcher is just a fancy desktop filler for the programs menu
[03:33] <usr13> ubu_noob: You might try 10.04
[03:33] <ubu_noob> usr13: I am booting from the install CD... I guess an early stage because the screen is just purple with some dots, three white, two red
[03:33] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, could you try installing desktop instead?  you can simply install the Unity interface on desktop then have the choice of the two.
[03:33] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: mhh....i will mention it if an opportunity presents itself. but i guess there are some good reasons they build it the way it is
[03:33] <ubu_noob> It's the desktop install CD, yes
[03:33] <szocool> thanks anyway .. bye !
[03:33] <usr13> ubu_noob: You could also try alternate CD
[03:33] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, are you sure about that?
[03:34] <usr13> ubu_noob: Is this your first Linux install?
[03:34] <ubu_noob> what's the alternate CD?
[03:34] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, alternate is the Debian text based installer - instead of fancy GUI Ubuntu one
[03:34] <plupke> x_  system - preferences -- sound  shows no devices?
[03:34] <ubu_noob> Zyko.. sure that it's the desktop install CD? the file is called "ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso"... is that what I want?
[03:34] <x_> plupke, no, my hdmi is shown and the program it outputs to is shown I just get no audio
[03:35] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: they got their own nifty server system anyways. supports ssh connection and the graphical nx-client
[03:35] <ZykoticK9> !tab | ubu_noob
[03:35] <ubu_noob> usr: not the first, no... maybe the third time... only did Fedora before tho
[03:35] <KM0201> ubu_noob: the alternat ecd is ubuntu-alternate-i386.iso, i do believe
[03:35] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, it's strange you are getting an error from what appears to be UNE - but yes, ...desktop-i386.iso is the right one.
[03:35] <plupke> x_ then your 1 step ahead of me, same problem here but i don't see any device
[03:36] <usr13> ubu_noob: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[03:36] <bullgard4> Why does Ubuntu need the 2 bug reporting programs bug-buddy and ubuntu-bug? Why is it not enough to have one bug reporting program?
[03:36] <ubu_noob> ok, I'll try the alternate CD, thanks
[03:36]  * KM0201 prefers the alt. install cd
[03:36] <ZykoticK9> bullgard4, ubuntu-bug is the standard bug reporting mechanism, i'm not familiar with bug-buddy
[03:37] <usr13> ubu_noob: Could be bad media, could be hardware issue, etc. etc.
[03:37] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: Thank you for commenting.
[03:37] <KM0201> usr13: i've just never saw that error freeze the cd... i've gotten it many many times, and i just wait a little longer, and eventually the cd moves past it.
[03:38] <ubu_noob> usr13: yes, many possibilities -- trying to narrow them down is my first task :/
[03:41] <ubu_noob> while I'm waiting for the download, here's another question: I'm looking at some open source software that comes in a Debian package but there's a note "does not work with ubuntu yet". This is confusing to me because I thought Ubuntu was derived from Debian. Any ideas?
[03:42] <bp0> what alternative to brasero exists for making cds?
[03:42] <bp0> mp3 cds
[03:42] <ZykoticK9> ubu_noob, ubuntu is based of debian, but it is different...
[03:42] <steff12321> alright, well noone has answered my question, how do i edit a .conf docunment with admin privelages
[03:42] <KM0201> bp0: gnomebaker
[03:42] <steff12321> i just need the command
[03:42] <Nox2k3> Hey, I'm trying to debug a driver problem in a wireless driver, would it help to compile a kernel that is a bit more debug friendly, is there one available, or does the stock kernel provide "good" enough debug support?
[03:42] <steff12321> and it cant be gksu, that does not work
[03:42] <KM0201> steff12321: gksudo gedit /path/to/file
[03:43] <steff12321> thanks
[03:43] <KM0201> steff12321: sure it does, you're just not doing it right
[03:43] <KM0201> steff12321: gksu would have worked just fine
[03:43] <steff12321> ill try gksudo
[03:44] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, gksu = gksudo
[03:44] <techitch> hi guys..i've been provisioned a VPS with a couple of extra ip's
[03:44] <KM0201> steff12321: they're the same thing... if it wasn't working before, you were doing something wrong
[03:44] <techitch> and i'm running ubuntu (headless)
[03:44] <steff12321> is there any other way of doing it?
[03:44] <techitch> in ifconfig -a i can see the ifb0 and ifb1 interface
[03:45] <KM0201> steff12321: what exactly are you trying to do?
[03:45] <steff12321> edit a vsftpd.conf doc
[03:45] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, what is the path to the file?
[03:45] <techitch> but when i set my ips up in /etc/network/interfaces and restart it all of a sudden the box is not contactable remotely - i have to get in via the console
[03:45] <smw> techitch, one very long question is better than many small lines.
[03:46] <techitch> lol sorry - i dont have the mental capacity to generate a sentance longer than 20 words
[03:46] <steff12321> ./etc/vsftpd.conf
[03:46] <smw> techitch, I don't want a long sentence. I want a paragraph on one line :-P
[03:47] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, ./ means current directory - doesn't seem right.  do you mean /etc/vsftpd.conf also doesn't seem likely.
[03:47] <steff12321> without the .
[03:47] <techitch> consolidated question - i've been provisioned a VPS with a couple of extra ip's, and i'm running ubuntu (headless), in ifconfig -a i can see the ifb0 and ifb1 interface ,  but when i set my ips up in /etc/network/interfaces and restart it all of a sudden the box is not contactable remotely - i have to get in via the console
[03:47] <steff12321> i did that because otherwise mirc would take it as a command
[03:47] <techitch> i added comma's especially for you
[03:47] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, "gksu gedit /etc/vsftpd.conf" then
[03:48] <Peddy> how can I find out which files is in use by a certain program?
[03:48] <smw> techitch, can you pastebin your interfaces file?
[03:48] <bp0> KM0201, thanks, perfect
[03:48] <bp0> worked great
[03:48] <KM0201> bp0: i don't remember what i told you, but i'm glad it worked..lol
[03:49] <bp0> gnomebaker
[03:49] <smw> techitch, can you give an example of ifconfig -a after restarting?
[03:49] <jeeves_moss> what shell should I have on FTP users under ProFTPd?  I can't have the users accessing shell though!
[03:49] <techitch> ok one sec..
[03:49] <KM0201> bp0: oh ok.. yah, i much prefer gnomebaker to brasero
[03:49] <steff12321> im on kubuntu btw, and it sais sh:gedit not found
[03:49] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, /bin/false
[03:49] <steff12321> sh: gedit: **
[03:49] <mushy1> say say, on 10.04 running xubuntu on a netbook, how do i rollout a 10.10 iso, i have no disk media or stick for booting, how can i boot from iso directly
[03:50] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, tried that, same thing "(Login failed): Invalid shell: '/usr/sbin/false'
[03:50] <KM0201> steff12321: then you should have said that... subsitute kate for gedit
[03:50] <ZykoticK9> steff12321, gksu probably isn't right either then.  Sorry i don't do KDE, good luck.
[03:50] <mushy1> i could upgrade manager but i want it fresh
[03:50] <steff12321> sorry about that
[03:50] <mushy1> i have messed this one over a lot
[03:50] <steff12321> alright
[03:50] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, it's /bin/false - not /usr/sbin/false
[03:50] <mushy1> any help im grateful
[03:50] <KM0201> steff12321: and i think you need to use kdesu... bu tnot 100%... thats really a kde specific thing
[03:50] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, thanks.  one sec, going to try it
[03:51] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, same thing
[03:51] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, "login failed" are you trying to log in with it?  I thought that was what you where trying to avoid.
[03:52] <ubuntu> hello
[03:52] <jeeves_moss> this is the output from the proftpd.log file  http://pastebin.com/zWbrdPY6
[03:52] <smw> hi
[03:52] <DarkStar1> What's teh command for finding out my JAVA_HOME directory?
[03:52] <steff12321> done, thans
[03:52] <steff12321> thanks*
[03:52] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, I need to be able to allow FTP ONLY logins (no shell account access)
[03:52] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Sorry I took so long to respond, I am at work.  Yes, and they could hoist their entire system into such virtual systems on ubuntu server cloud, would give them more reliability, greater failover, among many other advancements.
[03:52] <techitch> smw - http://paste.ubuntu.com/554253/
[03:52] <smw> DarkStar1, echo $JAVA_HOME    ?
[03:52] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, sorry don't know then.  Good luck.
[03:52] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, thanks
[03:52] <techitch> those are before & after
[03:53] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  If you host more then one server machine, ubuntu server cloud is always better from what I have seen.
[03:53] <smw> techitch, what about ifconfig?
[03:54] <techitch> ifconfig from after i restart networking with the updated config?
[03:54] <smw> techitch, I suggest taking an ifconfig when internet is down and piping it to a file. Then get network working and send it to me
[03:54] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, be aware FTP should be avoided if possible, all passwords are sent in clear text.  SSH supports file transfers if that is an option.
[03:54] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: nevermind. im about to fall to sleep anyway ^^ just meddling with some sources here. its 5 am....
[03:54] <smw> techitch, yes
[03:54] <techitch> ok
[03:54] <smw> techitch, does ping work when you can't ssh?
[03:54] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Ah but is it early for you, onl 10pm here...
[03:54] <OvermindDL1> only*
[03:55] <DarkStar1> smw: It would seem I don't have one :(
[03:55] <israelito_solito> hi, I want to upgrade to the 10.10version but I get an error message
[03:55] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: so wheres base for you? im in europe, gmt+1
[03:55] <israelito_solito> several packages not found
[03:55] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  USA GMT-7
[03:55] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: UTC +1 to be more accurate ^^
[03:55] <smw> DarkStar1, ok, so it is whatever the default is. I got no idea what it is :-\
[03:55] <jeeves_moss> ZykoticK9, thre is some custom software on this server that requires FTP
[03:56] <OvermindDL1> Zykotick9:  I have been curious, I use SSH, and I transfer files over sftp, but sometimes I have to sudo in ssh to access a file, is there anyway to transfer such a file back to me over ssh?
[03:56] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: greets from over the sea :D im just unpacking a deb of DropBox here. will see if its executable
[03:56] <ZykoticK9> jeeves_moss, gotcha.  Good luck.
[03:56] <ChipDSnow> Does anyone in here have dual monitor issues with Ubuntu?
[03:56] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Heh, if the deb does not work get the source and 'make' (no install) it and it will work.  :0
[03:56] <OvermindDL1> :) *
[03:56] <ZykoticK9> OvermindDL1, sounds like a permission issue if you must sudo, i have no idea man.  sorry.
[03:56] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: will do
[03:56] <OvermindDL1> ChipDSnow:  My dual-monitors work, so not I
[03:57] <zaery> ChipDSnow, i plug a extra monitor into my laptop every day, well, at least every work day
[03:57] <ZykoticK9> ChipDSnow, are you using nvidia?
[03:57] <OvermindDL1> Zykotick9:  Yeah, a user owns the file, but the user is not a 'real' user and you cannot log in as that user, but I need to get it on occasion (a log), and it would be easier to transfer it locally then viewing remotely, but I just view it remotely since I have yet to figure out how to 'sudo' in sftp...
[03:58] <ChipDSnow> ZykoticK9:  I believe so.
[03:58] <ZykoticK9> ChipDSnow, "lspci | grep -i vga" will tell you for sure.
[03:58] <zaery> OvermindDL1, sftp'ing as root would work, would it not?
[03:58] <OvermindDL1> ChipDSnow:  I have ATI, and dual-monitor works fine (but I get x11vnc crashyness instead)
[03:58] <OvermindDL1> zaery:  Disabled due to permissions that I do not really 'want' to change...
[03:58] <israelito_solito> has anyone else had this message when upgrading to 10.10? Failed to fetch http://co.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/k/kdepimlibs/kdepimlibs5_4.5.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb 404  Not Found
[03:59] <akshatj> where does GDM store its settings?
[03:59] <DarkStar1> smw: nvm I just had to do an update db and look
[03:59] <ZykoticK9> OvermindDL1, you're right in disabling root login over ssh, that is a GOOD plan.
[03:59] <techitch> smw - http://paste.ubuntu.com/554254/
[03:59] <redneck05> hey i have a problom with my usb thumb drive it keeps sayin job is pending on /dev/sdb1 how do i fix that
[03:59] <hasee> hi
[04:00] <zaery> OvermindDL1, i can't think of an easy way, but you could ssh, then cp the file into a readable location, then view it with sftp :/
[04:00] <ChipDSnow> ZykoticK9:  Just a generic Intel video chip.  It flip-flops between my laptop and 2nd monitor, or will turn off, sometimes both.
[04:00] <smw> techitch, what is dummy0?
[04:00] <hasee> moovida its opensource?? or its only free?
[04:00] <ChipDSnow> I'm trying to figure out why.  Never seen something like this in a forum setting before.
[04:00] <struhevol> how can i make ubuntu load faster i dual boot from win 7 and ubuntu but ubuntu takes like 5 mins to boo
[04:00] <OvermindDL1> zaery:  Heh, true, but it updates *often*, a lot of work.  ;-)
[04:00] <smw> techitch, and can you ping from it? ping google
[04:00] <ZykoticK9> ChipDSnow, sorry i have only used dual monitor with nvidia - best of luck.
[04:00] <techitch> nope
[04:00] <OvermindDL1> struhevol:  From what drive?  Mine takes about 20 seconds to load...
[04:00] <AbhiJit> struhevol, which version of ubuntu is this?
[04:01] <struhevol> 10
[04:01] <smw> techitch, type ifconfig dummy0 down
[04:01] <OvermindDL1> struhevol:  10.04 or 10.10?
[04:01] <ZykoticK9> struhevol, both 10.04 and 10.10 should start MUCH faster then 5 minutes
[04:01] <struhevol> c drive
[04:01] <smw> techitch, then ping again. Next try ifconfig eth0 up
[04:01] <struhevol> yea 10.4 lts
[04:01] <OvermindDL1> struhevol:  but what partition type EXT4, NTFS, etc...?
[04:01] <struhevol> i did the side by side option
[04:02] <OvermindDL1> struhevol:  So ext4 I hope?
[04:02] <struhevol> yea
[04:02] <struhevol> thats the one
[04:02] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: Its working!!
[04:02] <techitch> tried both
[04:02] <struhevol> ext4 /
[04:02] <zaery> redneck05, I had a problem exactly like that, but with a hard drive, turns out, the drive was failing, and I had to use testdisk to fix it, and all i got was a lost+found folder full of all of my files
[04:02] <techitch> neither works
[04:02] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Hah, awesome.
[04:03] <struhevol> testdisk
[04:03] <smw> techitch, I have never seen this before. What is eq1 and dummy0?
[04:03] <struhevol> hum....
[04:03] <struhevol> google brb
[04:03] <techitch> i have no idea
[04:03] <techitch> thats new to me as well
[04:03] <techitch> oh wait
[04:03] <hasee> moovida its opensource?? or its only free?
[04:03] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: i just got a shell interface since im on ssh with PuttY but i got Xming running and should be able to get the X Output as soon as i remember the switch to execute the  bin in non-terminal mode....^^
[04:03] <techitch> i think eq1
[04:03] <zaery> eq1 == EverQuest1?
[04:03] <techitch> is the serial console
[04:04] <smw> techitch, yeah
[04:04] <techitch> i'm logged in via the vps console
[04:04] <hasee> aegis AOE2
[04:04] <hasee> aegis lol
[04:04] <smw> techitch, ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Are you starting an X session?  If so you could just use x11vnc to vnc into it over your ssh connection with an ssh tunnel
[04:04] <techitch> nothing..
[04:04] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Since you are using putty and are on windows
[04:05] <smw> techitch, what does it say? 100% packet loss?
[04:05] <techitch> it just sits there
[04:05] <techitch> and then i ctrl+c
[04:05] <techitch> and thres no output
[04:05] <smw> techitch, odd...
[04:05] <techitch> ahh actually
[04:05] <techitch> when i did the google dns ip
[04:05] <techitch> it says 100% packet loss
[04:06] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: yep, i am. its currently the only machine working here. since its a really old pc i did not even get xubuntu installed. weird enough: windows xp runs quite smoothly
[04:06] <techitch> i think it wasnt resolving before
[04:06] <mstfsnr> anybody help me with 3g and wwan in 10.04 ??
[04:06] <smw> techitch, I am surprised you reconized the url ;-)
[04:06] <phreck> ip.
[04:06] <jasono> Hi. I just created a Launchpad Google Chrom Web App but need to verify Launchpad in the App. Can someone please help me?
[04:06] <techitch> i'm wondering if theres an error in my interfaces file
[04:06] <techitch> but it looks ok to me
[04:07] <smw> techitch, ping -I eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:07] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Then VNC over an SSH Tunnel through PuTTy should work wonderfully
[04:07] <techitch> nothing..
[04:07] <hasee> aegis lol
[04:07] <hasee> moovida its opensource?? or its only free?
[04:07] <OvermindDL1> jasono:  Doing what?
[04:07] <smw> techitch, if it seems like I have no idea what I am doing, it is because I don't. I am just testing what I would if it was my box ;-)
[04:08] <struhevol> hidden sectors is present in the testdisk
[04:08] <struhevol> is that bad or good
[04:08] <techitch> lol ok
[04:08] <techitch> but what i've done so far seems like the right way to do it
[04:08] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: well i dont have VNC but Xming. A windows subsitute for X
[04:08] <smw> techitch, I can not figure out why eth0 stops working.
[04:08] <jasono> OvermindDL1 Verifying the url for use.
[04:09] <r00t4rd3d> whats the url ?
[04:09] <AbhiJit> is there any way i can tell firefox to autoselect address like as that of in chromium
[04:09] <smw> techitch, yep, there is a problem with your interfaces file
[04:09] <hasee> moovida its opensource?? or its only free?
[04:09] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: whats odd though is that normally i get the display output on my desktop as soon as i start a program. how can i get this one running with a gui instead of cmd-line interface
 launchpad.net
[04:09] <techitch> whats wrong with it?
[04:10] <AbhiJit> hi r00t4rd3d
[04:10] <smw> techitch, not sure what it is, but the ip address listed in interfaces for eth0 and the one in ifconfig are different
[04:10] <techitch> or that u dont know
[04:10] <techitch> oh
[04:10] <jasono> r00t4rd3d launchpad.net need to verify with meta, html, dns, or google analytics
[04:10] <techitch> thats cuz i changed that
[04:10] <smw> techitch, I guess it is failing to read it.
[04:10] <techitch> to protect the real ip
[04:10] <techitch> lets assume
[04:10] <FloodBot3> techitch: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:10] <techitch> they actually match....
[04:10] <smw> techitch, techitch so you censured one and not the other... lol
[04:11] <Guest33092> anyone know how to get javascript on bt4?
[04:11] <hasee> moovida its opensource?? or its only free?
[04:11] <israelito_solito> Hi, I have a problem while upgrading to 10.10
[04:11] <techitch> well i censored both..but i censored them both differently..cuz i got lazy the 2nd time
[04:11] <Dobz> when I upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, will it delete my custom kernel?
[04:11] <mstfsnr> this is the 5th time im asking this. maybe my typos arent visible... doesnt anyone know anything about 3g connections in ubuntu or 1400 ppl are just ignoring me ?
[04:11] <smw> techitch, ok.
[04:11] <shcherbak> !bt4 | Guest33092
[04:11] <shcherbak> !back-track | Guest33092
[04:11] <shcherbak> !backtrack | Guest33092
[04:12] <OvermindDL1> bug_bugger:  Ah, never used Xming, I do not run Windows except on my phone, and I use VNC on it.  No clue, what app.
[04:12] <rsyring> I have some scripts that need to be run by crontab...currently, they are in cron.hourly, but they have special times in /etc/crontab.  Where is the correct place on the system for those scripts to live?
[04:12] <struhevol> back-track pen test
[04:12] <techitch> so the ip's set in interfaces match exactly with the ifconfig output..
[04:12] <shcherbak> Guest33092: you mean java?
[04:12] <jasono> Can someone please answer my question?
[04:12] <Guest33092> yeah ive tried there website and havent been able to find any fix's
[04:12] <techitch> i'm wondering though..should the broadcast ip be the same on every interface???
[04:13] <devkorcvince> mstfsnr: what ubuntu version are you running?
[04:13] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: gernerally speaking: whenever i type, say, "firefox" in the terminal, i dont get a command-line iterface but its starting up the gui and transfering it to my x-server
[04:13] <shcherbak> Guest33092: and there is no java in bt repos?
[04:13] <Guest33092> shcherbak, yes
[04:13] <smw> techitch, what broadcast ip?
[04:13] <hasee> !moovida
[04:13] <Guest33092> none whatsoever?
[04:14] <smw> techitch, that should not matter

[04:14] <DarkStar1> This is more of a GUI question, but is there a way command to stuck away all windows and so as to show the desktop?
[04:14] <shcherbak> Guest33092: what did you tried to install java?
[04:14] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: seems to be somehow related to a proper installation....
[04:14] <DarkStar1> in gnome
[04:14] <hasee> thanks
[04:15] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Correct, only thing that would appear on the terminal would be standard/error out, which firefox does not have
[04:15] <smw> DarkStar1, bottom left corner there is a purple button. click it
[04:15] <ranjan> hi all is there are free web conferencing software available which is reliable??
[04:15] <OvermindDL1> That is assuming it detected the DISPLAY environment variable, otherwise it should error out
[04:15] <DarkStar1> not for me.. I'm on ubuntu gnome
[04:15] <OvermindDL1> ranjan:  What kind of conferencing?
[04:15] <AbhiJit> ranjan, skype?
[04:15] <bluezone> i am having difficulties installing the nvidia driver for my 8400M GS, INCLUDING: "The distribution-provided pre-install script failed!", "THE CC version check failed: the compiler used to compile the kernel gcc 4.2 does not exactly match the current compiler (gcc 4.4).

[04:16] <devkorcvince> DarkStar1, c-D
[04:16] <ranjan> OvermindDL1, we are planning to give online training to students in a small scale basis
[04:16] <smw> techitch, what type of vps is this btw? ec2?
[04:16] <DarkStar1> smw: no such button for me
[04:16] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: nah, it just lists the available switches...
[04:16] <smw> DarkStar1, it is for me... I am on 10.10
[04:16] <AbhiJit> ranjan, yah try skype
[04:16] <hasee> bluezone install it via ppa
[04:16] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  It may not be detected an X session to hook to
[04:16] <AbhiJit> ranjan, look for lernid too
[04:16] <ranjan> AbhiJit, is desktop sharing etc available on skype?
[04:16] <bluezone> sorry, i dont not know what ppa means hasee
[04:17] <OvermindDL1> ranjan:  Hmm, do you need video?  audio?  text?  drawing?
[04:17] <AbhiJit> ranjan, no
[04:17] <smw> DarkStar1, it is a widget, you can add it.
[04:17] <ZykoticK9> !ppa | bluezone
[04:17] <DarkStar1> smw: same here.. but I don't have such a button
[04:17] <devkorcvince> DarkStar1, c-D ctrl-shift-d
[04:17] <AbhiJit> ranjan, for that you need teamviewer
[04:17] <Guest33092> shcherbak: i tried just a typical install but obviously that didnt work and then i tried running it through  `bash and it just came back as an error
[04:17] <hasee> bluezone ppa+externel repository
[04:17] <ranjan> OvermindDL1, yes
[04:17] <AbhiJit> ranjan, http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx
[04:17] <DarkStar1> devkorcvince: thx
[04:17] <hasee> bluezone external
[04:17] <OvermindDL1> rranjan:  Yes to all?  That is complex, I doubt anything free unless you want to make it from a mish-mash of components.
[04:17] <bullgard4> Where can I find a somewhat detailed description what '~service network restart' does?
[04:17] <smw> DarkStar1, devkorcvince that does not work for me...
[04:17] <bugs_bugger> anyway, it should start just fine when i log in normally or use nomachine (nx-client) to connect. that one 's got their x-server built-in
[04:17] <ranjan> AbhiJit, but teamviewer has time issue. i think a free version session can only span to 5 or 10 minutes
[04:18] <bullgard4> Where can I find a somewhat detailed description what '~$ service network restart' does?
[04:18] <AbhiJit> ranjan, no
[04:18] <DarkStar1> devkorcvince: nor me
[04:18] <AbhiJit> ranjan, its free software
[04:18] <ranjan> AbhiJit, is it free software or freeware??
[04:18] <smw> techitch, can you do ifconfig when internet is working?
[04:18] <AbhiJit> ranjan, freeware
[04:18] <devkorcvince> DarkStar1, ctrl-alt-d
[04:19] <ranjan> AbhiJit, how many concurrent sessions?
[04:19] <DarkStar1> devkorcvince: That did it. :D Thanks
[04:19] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: hah, now i wont have to install windows binaries in wine to get most of the applications running, just unpacking them will do the job....
[04:19] <AbhiJit> ranjan, no idea just read their docs
[04:19] <devkorcvince> DarkStar1, no prob i forgot i change mine for vim purposes
[04:19] <bluezone> hasee, so what do i install from here?
[04:19] <hasee> bluezone wait a minute
[04:20] <AbhiJit> ranjan, its full version is free to non commercial use. for commercial use they apply charges
[04:20] <shcherbak> Guest39978: what repos do you have there?
[04:20] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: so, no w(h)ining anymore ;-D
[04:20]  * AbhiJit wonders how they know this!
[04:20] <aLemmer> Hey, I'm using Gnome with Window Selector. Sometimes it doesn't display all of the windows. Anyone know what this is about?
[04:20] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Heh, always great when everything gets setup and working.  :)
[04:20] <hasee> bluezone open a terminal and type the following comand
[04:20] <hasee> bluezone sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[04:20] <bluezone> okay 1 sec
[04:21] <lakcaj> I have two machines on my network behind a router, a linux box and a windows box.  I would like my wife on her windows box to be able to login to a graphical linux environment hosted from my linux machine and was looking for suggestions on the best way to accomplish this.
[04:21] <bluezone> hasee, succes
[04:21] <hasee> bluezone ok
[04:21] <hasee> bluezone andnow copy this
[04:21] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: yep. it means that, at least some times, in the end p.e.b.c.a.c. can be overcome by a stiff upper lip :)
[04:21] <hasee> bluezone $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings
[04:22] <hasee> bluezone without $
[04:22] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: *p.e.b.c.a.k.
[04:22] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  Hah, I still deal with pebcak everyday in my job.  :p
[04:22] <bluezone> hasee, yes, one moment
[04:22] <ZykoticK9> bugs_bugger, pebkac actually ;)
[04:22] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: dont we all
[04:22] <shcherbak> Guest39978: try this in terminal: java
[04:22] <sacarlson> lakcaj: I guess you could use vnc like vino on the linux side and some vnc client on windows
[04:23] <bluezone> hasee, crap this will take awhile, slow repo server i guess
[04:23] <bluezone> hasee, but in advance what must i do after
[04:23] <bugs_bugger> ZykoticK9: innit all the same? computer or keybord, the problem is allways in between, regardless if the keybord comes first or the computer :)
[04:23] <hasee> bluezone just reboot your computer, or restart the X session
[04:23] <ZykoticK9> bugs_bugger, true :)
[04:24] <ranjan> bluezone, did you try the opensource driver for nvidia ??
[04:24] <sacarlson> lakcaj: vino on ubuntu is installed by default on the windows side you could use http://www.realvnc.com/products/free/4.1/winvncviewer.html
[04:24] <bluezone> ranjan, yep, no succes, refuses to boot to gui still
[04:24] <lakcaj> sacarlson, thanks - I'll try that!
[04:24] <ranjan> bluezone, was that a fresh installation that you tried on or was it after installing the proprietary stuff??
[04:25] <bugs_bugger> ok guys. ill call it a day. im going to drop fast asleep soon anyway. see, i dont even know if that sentence is in correct grammatical order any more.
[04:25] <bluezone> ranjan, it was after i screwed something up, initially they worked, now everything is @)(#*$)(#* lol
[04:26] <wolter> If I want to build empathy from source I just need to run sudo apt-get build-dep to get the dependencies right?
[04:26] <Naia> I have a question but unsure of how to find the right channel to ask it?
[04:26] <bluezone> bugs_bugger, bye!
[04:26] <wolter> I get this http://pastebin.com/LxVC4Rsf
[04:26] <shcherbak> Naia: go on
[04:26] <ranjan> bluezone, then go for a fresh installation and use the opensource drivers
[04:27] <Naia> I just converted from Win 2 days ago. I have 2 drives in my system. Ubuntu 10.10 is not recognizing (at all) the 2nd drive, which is a writer.
[04:27] <ranjan> bluezone, so that no hassles with the Plymouth issue etc
[04:27] <shcherbak> bluezone: can you get resgue mode?
[04:27] <bluezone> ranjan, if this doesn't work, then i will have to, (ffs,) but then i am going to have to fix my wireless issue again., and upgrade kernel, and then it is going to be the same story all over again
[04:27] <watermains> got a recommendation between using ubuntu-restricted versus medibuntu?
[04:28] <bluezone> schatan, rescue? yes i can use rescue i am using it now
[04:28] <shcherbak> Naia: pleae paste of fdisk -l
[04:28] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: ZykoticK9: (dunno if double nick-adressing works) thanks for the accompaniance. see you around i guess, i will stumble upon my next issue soon enough ^^ bye
[04:28] <shcherbak> !paste | Naia
[04:28] <bluezone> i mean shcherbak
[04:28] <bazhang> watermains, not a choice between them, restricted has tons of stuff medibuntu does not
[04:28] <sacarlson> wolter: I assume that was for the apt-get line?  you need to sudo that line
[04:28] <ranjan> bluezone, which is your wireless adapter?
[04:28] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger:  It does, you do not even need to specify at the start, but any point in the message.  :)
[04:28] <bluezone> ranjan, Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[04:28] <wolter> yeah I wrote sudo )
[04:28] <wolter> :)
[04:29] <bluezone> i had to upgrade kernel to fix my problem ranjan and that created this problem
[04:29] <ranjan> bluezone, being from Intel you find it problematic in Linux?
[04:29] <shcherbak> bluezone: good, try to remove nvidia/ati driver. after dpkg --recofigure
[04:29] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: noted as the last thing to have learned today :D over and out
[04:29] <bluezone> ranjan, yes
[04:29] <ranjan> bluezone, oh :(
[04:29] <Naia> shcherbak: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554264/
[04:29] <shcherbak> bluezone: you intel?
[04:29] <bluezone> ranjan, my wireless speed was 5 times slower than normal
[04:29] <OvermindDL1> bugs_bugger, Hah, sleep well!
[04:29] <wolter> sacarlson, do I need their ppa or something?
[04:30] <bugs_bugger> OvermindDL1: tha....Zzz
