[10:24] <gylan1979> hi everyone...i just setup a realplayer from my desktop...and the temp folder is not remove n still appear on my desktop...i tried to remove it by cmd $sudo rmdir hxsetup but it doesn't work...how do i do now? please help
[10:24] <^Phantom^> The drive is an ubuntu 8.10 install if I remember right
[10:25] <raj22> I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet
[10:25] <drizzt_> ^Phantom^, try to run mountdiag and see why driver cannot mount it
[10:25] <^Phantom^> in cmd, right?
[10:25]  * ^Phantom^ is used to command-line after using linux for over a year :3
[10:26] <drizzt_> yes
[10:26] <^Phantom^> it doesn't recognize the command
[10:27] <^Phantom^> IFS Drives in control panel recognizes it as an ext3
[10:27] <^Phantom^> Whew
[10:28] <drizzt_> you should download mountdiag from fs-driver,org and run it
[10:28] <^Phantom^> Could this be because I have not been able to get a clean shutdown in unbuntu due to power problems with the machine it runs on?
[10:28] <the_gamer> i used aptitude search to search for packets. what do the letters in the first column mean? and how to find out which packets i have installed?
[10:28] <eto> ^Phantom^ : yes
[10:28] <drizzt_> the_gamer, it's a package status
[10:28] <^Phantom^> I can go and try to get a clean shutdown
[10:28] <gylan1979> hello, is there anyway to login as a root in ubuntu??
[10:29] <the_gamer> drizzt_, is there a list to find out what each letter means?
[10:29] <^Phantom^> but no guarantees
[10:29] <^Phantom^> also, does ubuntu 8.10 install as encrypted by default?
[10:29] <drizzt_> the_gamer, man aptitude :)
[10:29] <abhi_nav> gylan1979 sudo su
[10:29] <drizzt_> ^Phantom^, no it's not
[10:30] <^Phantom^> If I can get clean shutdown, is it possible that I will be able to read the drive in windows?
[10:30] <drizzt_> does karmic have the keyboard layout gnome-panel applet or it was it already removed?
[10:30] <eto> ^Phantom^ : i don't think so
[10:30] <^Phantom^> Or do I need to disable my password for login?
[10:30] <drizzt_> ^Phantom^, were you able to access this drive before?
[10:30] <eto> can you see partition contents in ubuntu?
[10:31] <the_gamer> drizzt_, thanks
[10:31] <^Phantom^> It boots fine and everything
[10:31] <eto> then windows get confused
[10:31] <^Phantom^> It's the machine I use it on that is faulty
[10:31] <eto> it's on the separate drive or separate partition?
[10:31] <drizzt_> ^Phantom^, that driver do not support large inodes, but I don't thinl it's a problem with 8.04
[10:31] <eto> within a first drive that is?
[10:32] <^Phantom^> Oh, I should mention that this is a USB drive
[10:32] <eto> well sometimes if the partition table messes up and windows than assigns type RAW to aprtition
[10:32] <^Phantom^> ;_;
[10:32] <eto> ^Phantom^ : well USB flash drive?
[10:32] <^Phantom^> USB HDD
[10:33] <^Phantom^> it's a 250GB WD USB External HDD
[10:33] <eto> huh every FLASH from transcend i had become RAW and unusable after a month
[10:33] <abhi_nav_> hi
[10:33] <abhi_nav_> m back
[10:33] <^Phantom^> I will be back shortly, recreation break
[10:33] <abhi_nav_> :)
[10:33] <eto> ^Phantom^ : isn't it WD passport junk?
[10:33] <eto> ^Phantom^ : 2.5'' version?
[10:34] <drizzt_> ^Phantom^, so had ypou downloaded and run mountdiag&
[10:35] <gylan1979> abhi_nav, thanks for help...i try 1st
[10:36] <silv3r_m00n> how to run ie7 and 8 on ubuntu ?
[10:36] <drizzt_> silv3r_m00n, via virtual machine
[10:37] <manulite> hello, i run on a relatively slow connection, and it seems like if apt-get is disrupted while still fetching packages if you start it again it refetches packages it had downloaded before, how do i tell it to cache
[10:37] <silv3r_m00n> drizzt_: I don't have windows installed on my computer
[10:37] <gylan1979> abhi_nav, is there anyway to delete the folder which is containing files and folders?
[10:37] <^Phantom^> Okay back
[10:37] <^Phantom^> let me get mountdiag
[10:38] <drizzt_> gylan1979, via terminal?
[10:38] <eto> ^Phantom^:  well if it's WD passport 2,5'' those drives are unstandard crap, on USB2 connection they are fine, but on USB1 the, voltage is too low, so you need Y cable on certain machines, which have standard controllers which deliver lover voltages (older machiens). I happyly corrupted several times friend\s NTFS on this sucky drive, because of that
[10:38] <arand_> silv3r_m00n: Indeed, virtual machine is probably the best bet, since wine is horrible when it comes to IE, alternatively you might be able to just switch user agent in FF?
[10:38] <gylan1979> drizzt_..yes
[10:38] <^Phantom^> I'm using a 2.0 port
[10:38] <drizzt_> gylan1979, rm -r <directory>
[10:38] <silv3r_m00n> arand_: can I use virtualbox and run ie7 without windows xp ?
[10:39] <Poent> why do you want to run IE?
[10:39] <^Phantom^> eww IE
[10:39] <arand_> silv3r_m00n: No
[10:39] <^Phantom^> anyway brb gonna grab that app
[10:39] <silv3r_m00n> then ?
[10:39] <drizzt_> silv3r_m00n, you'll have to pirate windows if you wan ie
[10:39] <theadmin> silv3r_m00n: Virtualbox virtualizes the OS so you can't run IE.
[10:39] <silv3r_m00n> hmm
[10:39] <theadmin> You can use WINE for it.
[10:39] <bazhang> drizzt_, dont suggest that here
[10:39] <Poent> IE is embedded in windows.
[10:39] <drizzt_> i don't suggest anything
[10:39] <silv3r_m00n> drizzt_: do I need to install xp on a partition for virtualbox ?
[10:39] <gylan1979> drizzt_, it is done.. thank u so much..
[10:39] <theadmin> silv3r_m00n: it installs into a file
[10:39] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979: rm command is used to delte folders
[10:39] <eto> ^Phantom^ : are you sure? I would try the Y cable still, if you have unexpected problems only on that machine, it might have chape USB controllers, Y cable draws voltage from 2 plugs to make drive happy
[10:40] <drizzt_> silv3r_m00n, no you create a virtual disk in the file
[10:40] <theadmin> silv3r_m00n: If you have a partition you can install it the normal way
[10:40] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979 first go to the respective folder using cd and then use rm filename
[10:40] <Lazy^> silv3r_m00n: if you really wanna use ie7 use wine. But instll xp / win7 via virtualbox and then use ie7. Safer solution
[10:40] <^Phantom^> There was some kind of electrical disturbance that messed up that machine
[10:40] <gylan1979> abhi_nav_ ic...thanks...
[10:40] <silv3r_m00n> ok
[10:40] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979 hmm do man rm for more informatin
[10:40] <silv3r_m00n> let me install virtualbox
[10:40] <^Phantom^> I just need to get some data off the drive
[10:41] <^Phantom^> oh vb
[10:41] <^Phantom^> i wonder...
[10:41] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979 and use this command use with care, as it can destroy important files
[10:41] <^Phantom^> could i use dsl to get the data using virtualbox?
[10:41] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979 though your linux is running
[10:41] <Lazy^> pakarle: whoot ?
[10:41] <Lazy^> ** ^Phantom^ i ment to say :)
[10:41] <gylan1979> abhi_nav_, ic...thanks for advise...i understand it now..
[10:42] <Poent> silv3r_m00n, why were you wanting to use IE?
[10:42] <abhi_nav_> gylan1979 hmm..............:D
[10:42] <^Phantom^> oh
[10:42] <Lazy^> ^Phantom^: what do you mean use dsl ?
[10:42] <raj22> I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet
[10:42] <^Phantom^> damn small linux
[10:42] <^Phantom^> @ Lazy^
[10:42] <arand_> silv3r_m00n: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page exists, but for v7-8 there's really only a virtual install of windows that works, since wine mangles it horribly, accordin to: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=25
[10:42] <silv3r_m00n> Poent: to test my websites for cross browserness
[10:42] <Lazy^> ^Phantom^: kk :)
[10:42] <eto> ^Phantom^ well:  if it's SATA inside you can take it out from enclosure and connect it directly to mobo, plugs are same between 2,5'' and 3,5''
[10:42] <silv3r_m00n> arand_: yah I used that already
[10:42] <gylan1979> abhi_nav_, :D thanks for ur kindly help...nice day..
[10:42] <eto> even if it's ide you can use reduction, it's like 2 euros here
[10:42] <^Phantom^> eto: I'm on a laptop <_<
[10:43] <theadmin> silv3r_m00n: Really, why do you NEED  IE?  Any other browser is better. Shoulda used a different term though
[10:44] <silv3r_m00n> theadmin: to test my websites for cross browserness
[10:44] <silv3r_m00n> arand_: I am installing virtualbox
[10:44] <drizzt_> theadmin, you're trying to provoke holywar
[10:44] <Poent> silv3r_m00n, http://browsershots.org/
[10:44] <theadmin> silv3r_m00n: Just make sure they comply to w3c standarts. If they do, they should be fine. Although IE ignores MANY CSS attributes
[10:45] <eto> silv3r_m00n : if you are troubled by IE6 you don't need to
[10:45] <eto> even youtube doesn't support it now
[10:45] <theadmin> drizzt_: Am I? I think everyone here would agree except a couple of people. Really, anyway, whatever. Sorry.
[10:45] <eto> so you can safely forget about it
[10:45] <^Phantom^> I was reading around on google
[10:45] <^Phantom^> It appears I need to go get a clean shutdown before this driver will allow the drive to be mounted
[10:45] <silv3r_m00n> eto: ie6 is forgotten , 7 and 8 are having plenty of nonsense issues
[10:46] <eto> well ^Phantom^ i wish you luck
[10:46] <^Phantom^> it does that to avoid damaging data apparently
[10:46] <raj22> I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet
[10:46] <^Phantom^> I'll be back if I run out of options
[10:46] <^Phantom^> Thank you for your help.
[10:46] <drizzt_> theadmin, Microsoft is in w3c, didn't you know?
[10:46] <eto> haven't they left? drizzt_ anyway like they care
[10:47] <theadmin> drizzt_: Nevertheless their browser is not standart compliant, which is outright hilarious
[10:47] <Poent> silv3r_m00n, with http://browsershots.org/ you can test you're site with a ton of different browsers. It can even test with flash and java. It doesnt let you browse around them but they'll at least let you test a multitude of differnt abstract browsers
[10:47] <eto> ie is a mess
[10:47] <eto> silv3r_m00n : you can always run virtual winbox if youa re serious with multipleie installed
[10:47] <mino> help me install lucid, ubiquity don't start
[10:48] <arand_> mino: -> ubuntu+1
[10:48] <mino> arand_:  thanks
[10:51] <ravibn> Hi!  I need help to recover my ubuntu installation. I hv 9.10 installed and was working good. Suddenly this afternoon I installed ubuntu tweak and something went wrong with my boot. It is a dual boot machine with XP.  Whenever I select ubuntu from the list it goes to grub prompt. After reading in different forums I now hv booted this machine from livecd and I am on this chat. Please help me recover my hard disk boot
[10:51] <Shamoun> hey all
[10:51] <Shamoun> how reliable is ntfs write support in linux?
[10:51] <raj22> I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet
[10:51] <bazhang> Shamoun, very
[10:51] <theadmin> Shamoun: Quite good, except for it is slower then on Windows
[10:51] <Shamoun> like could i use an ubuntu box as a NAS and just stick my ntfs formatted drives in there and be golden?
[10:52] <arand_> ravibn: is this a clean install of 9.10 or an upgrade from 9.04?
[10:52] <theadmin> ravibn: Try chrooting into your Linux partition and updating GRUB
[10:52] <Thraul> Hi guys
[10:52] <rexn> shamoun, sheck out freenas. It's BSD based but better for your needs
[10:52] <raj22> LinuxGuy2009: Its march '10 :P
[10:53] <Shamoun> rexn, yea but i would like to use the system as a spare desktop too
[10:53] <Thraul> I need some help with remastering a ubuntu desktop cd. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now howto i edit the menus and add desktop icons to the live cd?
[10:54] <theadmin> Looks like we're gonna get yet another Ubuntu remake soon :)
[10:54] <abhi_nav> :)
[10:54] <Thraul> no its for my self....just a system recovering disk for me...witheverything i would ever need lol and more
[10:56] <Thraul> any help would be appreciated
[10:58] <Uboss> Hello
[10:58] <theadmin> Hai, Uboss
[10:59] <shujayat> hi
[10:59] <Uboss> I have a problem with my external hard drive :P Before a few days I was installing Ubuntu but I forgot my external hard drive installed on my pc and I did a partition on it by a mistake. I did a format after that through Windows to delete the partition but the partition didn't go away. It shows on Ubuntu. What can I do?
[11:00] <theadmin> Uboss: I think it did go away and is just stuck in fstab
[11:00] <theadmin> Uboss: Check out GParted.
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> Uboss:  formating is not the same as partioning.   You repartion the drive to remove the extra partitons.
[11:00] <rexn> is it possible to dist-upgrade from 9.10 to lucid beta?
[11:00] <Uboss> I mean, I want my external hard drive to be shown as 1 disk only. Not 2.
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> rexn:  it will be able to upgrade yes.
[11:01] <theadmin> rexn: Sorta, do "update-manager -d"
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> Uboss:  if you have 2 partitions then you need to delete the one you dont want and resize the other.
[11:01] <theadmin> Uboss: sudo apt-get install gparted
[11:01] <Uboss> ye but how i will do this on an external drive.
[11:01] <rexn> thx guys!
[11:01] <theadmin> Uboss: From it, merge the partitions
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> Uboss:  same as you would with an internal drive. using gparted is one way
[11:02] <Uboss> let me see
[11:02] <Uboss> I wont lose any info right?
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> Uboss:  if you DELETE a partition you lose the data on that partition.
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> Uboss:  if you 'resize' with gparted in theory you shouldent. But it pays to have backups
[11:02] <Uboss> ok guys
[11:03] <Uboss> i will see later what to do
[11:03] <Uboss> exam time
[11:03] <Uboss> take care all!
[11:03] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Yeah, i lost my NTFS partition when trying to resize because of a power outage.
[11:03] <Thraul> I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the menus and add desktop icons to the live cd?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  yep. ive found windows faster at resizeing ntfs also.
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  poweroutage = bad  :)
[11:04] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: I don't thing i can resize stuff from which the system runs...
[11:04] <theadmin> think*
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  with windows it can. From what ive seen.
[11:04] <vladi> i'm trying to get my new Asus eee pc to work under crunchbang-ubuntu linux but i've got several problems with it... ethernet and wireless neither work (disabled, unclaimed) .. i think it's a problem with drivers, i've read on some forums that there is a solution for this, updating my kernel? or should i manualy set-up my network? ... btw. i think the graphics are not doing as they should too... any ideas anyone?
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  i get a new laptop. i use windows to resize itself :)
[11:04] <rexn> I got hit with a blackout while flashing my BIOS. Bricked my machine. Sucked big time...
[11:05] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Huh. I dunno, i have XP, it has no built-in partition editor at all it seems
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> vladi:  you should proberly use a regular ubuntu, and add whatever light window managers you want to use.
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  Vista and up i think
[11:05] <airtonix> vladi, i dont think derivatives of ubuntu are supported here
[11:05] <maxo> theadmin, yes it does, thru computer management
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> vladi:  what airtonix  said is true also. :)
[11:06] <theadmin> maxo: Ah, that thing. It's too confusing lol
[11:06] <vladi> well..ubuntu uses way too much resources
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> vladi:  install a lighter window manager and use that instead of gnome
[11:06] <airtonix> vladi, server-iso > apt-get lol-packages > ???? > profit
[11:06] <vladi> for a small system like that...i don't need compiz and other useless stuff that come with ubuntu
[11:06] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: You want to say "a lighter desktop environment", don't you? Just a window manager won't save you
[11:06] <vladi> Dr_Willis anyway...tnx for the help
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> vladi:  install a lighter window manager and use that instead of gnome   and whatever other tools you like
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  crunchbang last i tried it - just used fluxbox and not a full desktopp
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> of course Crunchbang is now based on debian.. so the whole discussion is now for other channels :)
[11:07] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Don't really like all those clones... Kubuntu was a meh last i tried it... (it had KDE 4.2 back then...)
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=crunchbang
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  the latest kde4.4?? is what im using now. Its gotten VERY good.
[11:09] <vladi> thanks
[11:09] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Gotta check it out again someday. Dolphin kept crashing on me when i tried to execute anything :/
[11:09] <vladi> i think i found a solution
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  rarely have crashes with it now. But i am betatesting 10.04 :) so   crashing is part of the game.
[11:10] <Shamoun> thaks guys, g'night
[11:10] <vladi> anyway..i find crunchbang the same as ubuntu, just lighter, no graphic effects, little less user-friendly, but who cares...as long as it's a fast system ;))
[11:10] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Looks like i'll have to flip over to KDE or XFCE when 10.10 is released... Gnome Shell is soooo confusing
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> vladi:   I just install fluxbox and use whatever wm i like.. and get the same stuff basically on ubuntu
[11:10] <vladi> and anyway...
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  gnomeshell is a work in progress.. gnome3 will be a BIG change also
[11:11] <airtonix> theadmin, just remove gnome-shell ?
[11:11] <vladi> i found out that the problem is just with my network drivers which are too new for ubuntu's repos
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> I dident even see gnome-shell installed by default on 10.04
[11:11] <vladi> so i have to download&install them manualy
[11:11] <zvacet> vladi: you can remove Ubuntu desktop and install lubuntu-desktop
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> I had MAJOR issues with instlling 'lubuntu-desktop' package under 9.04
[11:11] <theadmin> airtonix: Uh-huh, and i'll get an empty screen when logging in (same happens with gnome-panel if i remove it on 10.04 and earlier)
[11:11] <Thraul> I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the menus and add desktop icons to the live cd?
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> or was it 9.10 :) i forget teh #
[11:12] <airtonix> theadmin, why are you removing gnome-panel ?
[11:12] <david__> Hello everybody I have xubuntu 9.10 on my samsung nc10 , I can't set the luminosity someone can help me
[11:12] <vladi> nah, i'm happy with #! , i'll just try with the manual network installation, and see if it works...if not i'll try lubuntu
[11:12] <theadmin> airtonix: Well, i wanted to try to replace it wtih gnomeshell.
[11:12] <theadmin> vladi: #!? Shebang?
[11:12] <vladi> crunchbang ;)
[11:12] <theadmin> airtonix: Ended up reinstalling everything
[11:13] <zvacet> vladi:  to remove ubuntu-desktop see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[11:13] <airtonix> !find sodipodi
[11:13] <theadmin> zvacet: Those instructions are old.
[11:13] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi could anyone suggest a good sub-notebook linux-friendly? thanks
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> I wonder what the definition of a 'sub-notebook' even is
[11:13] <theadmin> vladi: zvacet: To remove ubuntu desktop, do "sudo tasksel remove ubuntu-desktop"
[11:14] <airtonix> IpSe_DiXiT, Dr_Willis a hardware question.
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  get a budget - see whats out.. check reviews.
[11:14] <zvacet> theadmin:  tnx
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  ones that 'just came' out will be more problematic then ones that have been out a few months.
[11:14] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: well i knew this bms, i wanted to know if u guyz could suggest something...
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  theres such a varity - its hard to even suggest anything.
[11:15] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: not looking for a "just came out" one, just for a good SUB-notebook thatz it
[11:15] <theadmin> Can i save a manpage into a file?
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  define what 'SUB-notebook' even means.
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  yes.
[11:15] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: How?
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  try man foo > foo.txt
[11:16] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Hm, i thought man invokes less, and that wouldn't work... trying out now.
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  man pages are also avail at many web sites   makes them easier to print
[11:16] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: a sub-notebook is not a netbook, itz a ultra-thin notebook, u know the really light ones?
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  actually man invokes several things and pipes the output to less.
[11:16] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Hm. It ended up to have an awful formatting :/
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  seen all sorts of laptops of various sizes and prices.   So its all a matter of what features/price you want.
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  yep. :) i recall that also..  man uses nroff, or troff (or groff?) for formating. So i recall ages ago tricks to get   them into better text files.. but its been years since i last did it.
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  try man -t ?

[11:21] <theadmin> jrib: Wait, like this: man somestuff | col -b > somefile.txt
[11:21] <jrib> theadmin: sure

[11:27] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  fscking is one time ive seen it used

[11:29] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, just what you put up there.
[11:29] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  it pays to read 'man man' :)
[11:30] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  hmm. its not working for me on 10.04 time to file a bug!
[11:30] <luiX_> hi all
[11:30] <Mowee> Hi :3
[11:30] <theadmin> To get your terminal screen overfilled quickly: ls -R /... lol
[11:30] <vladi> i'm having problems with locating and downloading a package from ubuntu's hp ... it's called " g++_4.3 " (note the underscore) .. there are only ones with the dash (g++-4.3) ... can anyone help me out on this?
[11:30] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  so this worked ? ----->   man --html=firefox  ls
[11:30] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, maybe its not run with firefox on 10.04 ?
[11:30] <luiX_> does anyone know if it's needed any special config for a repo to support multiple versions of the same package?
[11:31] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, i am only using 9.10 though
[11:31] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  getting some error about zsoelim command
[11:31] <mazda01> nautilus wont show me a nfs share, it says there a stale nfs file handle. BUT i can ls the directory just fine and all my stuff is there. any suggestions?
[11:32] <vladi> i'm having problems with locating and downloading a package from ubuntu's hp ... it's called " g++_4.3 " (note the underscore) .. there are only ones with the dash (g++-4.3) ... can anyone help me out on this? please it's the only file i need to download in order to get my network working :(
[11:32] <zvacet> luiX_:  I don't think you can run multiple versions of same package
[11:32] <luiX_> this is, I've build three different deb packages which are three different versions of the same app, and want to make the thee of them available in my repo. The problem is that I've put the three debs in the repo, I've regenerated the Packages.gz file, but a 'apt-cache showpkg <package_name>' is showing only the last version... any ideas?
[11:33] <theadmin> vladi: Are you sure it has an underscore? Package names nearly never do so
[11:33] <luiX_> zvacet, not run, just make them available in the repo
[11:33] <luiX_> zvacet, the idea is to be able to make a "aptitude install <package_name>=<package_version>" to install the version you want keeping the same package name
[11:34] <theadmin> luiX_: How about calling your packages like "pkgname-<IP_ADDRESS>"?
[11:34] <vladi> theadmin yes...it is stated in a tutorial on the forum as well...that i have to download the one with the dash and the one with the underscore.. i looked at the "show all packages" page and couldn't find it ;(
[11:34] <zvacet> I'm not expert but if you name it differently

[11:52] <Dr_Willis> vladi:  i imatgien the package you want is -> g++-4.3 - The GNU C++ compiler
[11:52] <vladi> Dr_Willis have you taken a look there?
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> or else its a crunchbang specific package. that ive never seen befor

[12:00] <rabbitnightmare> psyphercode, yeah I couldnt stand XP from iteration, but Windows 7 is just insulting to use

[12:08] <Dr_Willis> !apt | Ashok
[12:08] <Ashok> Pici: what can u be bit clear
[12:09] <Dr_Willis> Ashok:  you dident exactly ask a clear question in the first place.
[12:09] <Pici> Ashok: I meant *which* deb files were you looking for?
[12:09] <Omni> any suggestions
[12:10] <Guest15362> when i isue a 'ifconfig wlan0 down' the wireless card stops for about 5-sec and then restarts anyone know why ?
[12:10] <Pici> Omni: Er, can you rephrase your question *all on one line*? I've looked back at your last 10 lines and I don't even know what you're asking.
[12:10] <Omni> yes
[12:11] <manic_> look on line for the .deb package your looking to install or program that comes in .deb package and install this using command line for GUI to install. (     apt-get install gdebi )
[12:12] <Pici> gdebi is installed by default.
[12:13] <manic_> thx pici
[12:13] <Omni> I have a development board connected through RS232. It contains uboot loader. While borad boots up it will display some details and ends ub in uboot promt. These things I am getting in minicom. when i try to issue a command it is not working not even displayed in the terminal. One more thing it works in windows perfectly
[12:13] <martyvis>  wedo try http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-the-ubuntu-gpg-error-badsig.html
[12:13] <david__> hi
[12:14] <david__> ia am wanting to use the internet, on my phone from my laptop connection, using bluetooth. any suggestions
[12:15] <krambiorix> hi guys
[12:15] <Omni> pici: any suggestions
[12:16] <wedo> martyvis, i tried this methods but not solved
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  for a serial terminal program. you MAY need to enable 'local echo' in some cases. If you cant see what you are typing.
[12:16] <krambiorix> i upgraded ubuntu (via apt-get upgrade) and now i see that i have the pae kernel running. I did some research and found out that the pae kernel is for machines with a higher amount of memory than 3 GB. Now, i only have 2GB RAM, so why is it installed then?
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  but if you tuped in a command 'blind' it should work . if that was the issue. it could also be  a baud/parity/setting issue
[12:17] <Omni> Willis: I enabled it whatever I am typing is getting displayed in the terminal. but i believe it is not writing into the serial port. otherwise uboot would have responded with details
[12:18] <david__> hi there
[12:18] <Jimi_Neutral> hi guys is 81.xx.xx.xx a class A or B address, sorry im a bit rusty
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  could be a baud/parity/whatever issue then. Its been years since i last messed with serial terminals
[12:19] <Omni> Willis: Sorry I am not getting your first point. For second i am able to read from it. so setting should be proper. am I right?
[12:20] <tomasz_> TOMI
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  if you can read. the settings should be right.   i recall YEARS ago issues with ctrl-j vs ctrl-m also
[12:21] <Omni> One more thing it works fine in windows ( hypercom terminal ) is there any differenc in serial port communication in windows and linux
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  ie: carrage return vs sending a 'cr + lf'
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  double check all the settings.. windows may be dioing that cr+lf vs  just a cr.
[12:22] <Omni> ok
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> Omni:  i recall that from old BBS days :)
[12:22] <Omni> oh g8
[12:22] <martyvis> Jimi_Neutral: up to 126 is Class A, But noone cares about IP address classes these days. all IP routing today is classless
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> windows bbs's always wanted both.. AMiga ones wanted just one. :)
[12:23] <angel_> hola
[12:23] <brijith> hi all, how can I create a deb file from python source files ?
[12:23] <_linux_student> amsn knows someone and he can help me

[12:27] <NET||abuse> hey folks,, i have a problem with my laptop, trying to get onto wifi, and the dhcp just failes constantly
[12:28] <jforman> is there a guide for adding a new MIB to the snmpd ?
[12:28] <Omni> Willis: I tried wih enable and disable carriage return on and off. no luck yet
[12:28] <NET||abuse> 2 other laptops worki on the same network i'm trying to join, just this laptop won't go on dhcp.
[12:28] <pure_hate> NET||abuse, then set the ip staticly
[12:28] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, i've tried that but wicd start verifying ntework association and it fails.
[12:28] <Scotie> try manual
[12:28] <pure_hate> service wicd stop
[12:28] <psyphercode> hi all does anyone here use evolution extensively? would really like to know why on earth do i have to CC myself when I say reply to all? Is it so dumb
[12:29] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, and i use wicd cause ubuntu security stuff didn't work witth my dell d630, some problem with the selinux or some other policy thing
have amsn 0.98.1 cam is ok, but I do not voice it rings but there is nothing to help the friend who can
[12:29] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, done that with wicd stop wicd start already, still fails.
[12:30] <pure_hate> NET||abuse, then you need to watch your network traffic with a analyzer and see what happens to the packets
[12:30] <pure_hate> are the sent, are they recieved, if not why
[12:30] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, well for whatever reason 2 other laptops join this network no problem
[12:30] <NET||abuse> one is ubuntu based joli cloud theother is windows 7
[12:30] <Jimi_Neutral> martyvi
[12:31] <Jimi_Neutral> i am trying to connect my box to the internet using a bt business hunb...obviously i cant run the disc they give you to set it up....i have set it up using windows and now i have plugged the linux box into the hub....where do i go from here?
[12:31] <pure_hate> turn of selinux to, its pretty useless on a personal laptop. Its desinged for internal server structures
[12:32] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, yeh, i'd do that, how?
[12:32] <NET||abuse> then re-install NetworkManager?
[12:32] <BluesKaj> 'morning
[12:32] <pure_hate> update-rc.d selinux remove
[12:32] <Omni> amy way in linux to test the serial port
[12:32] <pure_hate> /etc/init.d/selinux stop
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> im not sure if selinux is started by the sysv scripts.. or by upstart.. Upstart does not use update-rc.d I think
[12:33] <pure_hate> Thats possible, I am not really sure
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> ive rarely seen /heard of any selinux issues also.
[12:33] <NET||abuse> Dr_Willis, well with NetworkManager and dell d630 it seems to be a problem in Karmic
[12:34] <ja660k> compiz annotate wont start? what do i need to do?
[12:34] <pure_hate> Yes, I onlymentioned it becasue when trouvble shooting network connectivity its always best to diable all security stuff
[12:34] <NET||abuse> ja660k, wha'ts compiz annotate do? plugin for comipiz?
[12:34] <ja660k> NET||abuse, it allows you to draw on the desktop, annotate if you will.
[12:34] <soreau> jaHow are you trying to start it?
[12:35] <soreau> ja660k: ^^
[12:35] <ja660k> soreau, hmmm i enabled it, changed the initiate key's cos i dno wat super key is
[12:35] <ja660k>  and yeah pressing those keys, and nothing?
[12:35] <soreau> ja660k: super key is the one with the windows logo on it
[12:36] <ja660k> soreau, ah
[12:36] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, weird, restartin everything without reboot wouldn't fix it, simple reboot of laptop and it's connected immediately.
[12:36] <soreau> ja660k: Are other compiz effects working?
[12:36] <ja660k> soreau, im not sure; so im going to assume no
[12:36] <NET||abuse> pure_hate, and i bet with this laptop if i change network again, it'll stop dhcp'ing successfully.
[12:36] <soreau> ja660k: Ok, I'm going to assume you don't have compiz enabled
[12:36] <soreau> ja660k: To enable it, open gnome-appearance-properties (System > Preferences > Appearance) and set the radio button to anything other than None in the Visual Effects tab.
[12:37] <Jimi_Neutral> i cannot connect to my bt business hub with my ubuntu box using the routers ip even tho it is directly connected
[12:37] <ja660k> soreau, right... now what?
[12:38] <soreau> ja660k: Was it set to None?
[12:38] <StryKaizer> once 10.04 is released, will I be able to upgrade within 9.10, and have exact the same version as a clean 10.04 install?
[12:38] <ja660k> soreau, yes.
[12:38] <soreau> ja660k: And now?
[12:38] <ja660k> soreau, still nothing
[12:38] <soreau> ja660k: ok, restart ccsm and re-enable Annotate, then try Super+Alt+Drag to draw
[12:39] <ja660k> soreau, /etc/init.d/ccsm restart? or how can i restart it
[12:39] <soreau> ja660k: Simply close the ccsm window, then open it again
[12:39] <ja660k> soreau, brb
[12:39] <abhi_nav> !lucid | StryKaizer
[12:40] <abhi_nav> StryKaizer: ask your question there. Let me also know the answer. I am interested too
[12:40] <StryKaizer> actually, I only need to know about the upgrade proces in ubuntu
[12:41] <StryKaizer> when upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10, was it like that?
[12:41] <abhi_nav> StryKaizer: yah you come there and ask so I wll also know
[12:42] <TheKro> hi.  I need to upgrade my ktimetracker to version 4.5 because of a bug with my current version.  How do I do this?
[12:44] <Jimi_Neutral> Ok, so when i set my network config to DHCP i can access the BT Business Hub.....so how would I set it to static with a starting address of 10.xx.xx.xx?
[12:44] <Jimi_Neutral> and still access the hub
[12:44] <ja660k> soreau, it works now.. thanks alot :)
[12:44] <madjoe> How can I save the setting to have VISUAL EFFECTS set to "Normal" everytime I boot my Ubuntu Karmic?
[12:45] <soreau> ja660k: cool, glad to help :)
[12:46] <abhi_nav> madjoe: select normal from appearance=>visual effects
[12:46] <madjoe> abhi_nav: but I need to do that all the time I login to Karmic.. how can I make it to be the default setting?
[12:47] <soreau> madjoe: It should be the default when you set it there. If it's resetting itself, you may have permissions problems in .gconf
[12:47] <abhi_nav> madjoe:  select remember running applications in startup applications
[12:48] <madjoe> abhi_nav: oh, that would remember EVERY single application, which I don't want
[12:48] <madjoe> soreau: .gconf in my home folder?
[12:49] <soreau> madjoe: yea
[12:49] <abhi_nav> madjoe: ohhh, man, just close all aps and just do this for one instance and after then you wll done
[12:49] <abhi_nav> madjoe: then logout and login
[12:50] <madjoe> soreau: I've checke it... no, permissions are fine
[12:50] <madjoe> soreau: I'm using compiz
[12:50] <soreau> madjoe: To fix it, you could try as you normal user, run 'sudo chown -R $USER ~/.gconf*' then set to None and back to Normal again then re-login. If it doesn't work, this is not your problem :)
[12:51] <pths> got a kernel upgrade today, but that made drbd unusable (the modules atleast), so how do I easiest recompile the drbd module against the new kernel?
[12:51] <madjoe> soreau: chown is set to my username for all directories and files
[12:51] <bullgard> How should I modify the line '#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480' in /etc/default/grub to factor in 'vga=0x=340'?
[12:52] <soreau> madjoe: I guess it's broken somewhere else then
[12:52] <bullgard> s/0x=340/0x340/
[12:52] <madjoe> soreau: hm.. ok

[12:55] <josh-N> hey all. i want to test playing ascii video with mplayer and aalib... however, "mplayer -vo help" doesn't list aa, only caca. what do i have to install to get aa output? (/me wants black/white)

[12:58] <KSid> Hi guys, can someone tell me if ufw is just an iptables wrapper or does it do more than that?
[12:58] <WIzz> my wireless device can't turned on in karmic
[12:58] <erUSUL> KSid: all linux firewalls are iptables wrappers
[12:59] <bullgard> zvacet: 'man users'

[12:59] <zvacet> tnx
[12:59] <LimitY> * Ansluter till open.ircnet.net (<IP_ADDRESS>) port 6668... how do i get to port 7000?
[12:59] <WIzz> please help me. my wireless device can't turned on in karmic. can someone solve my problem
[13:00] <sporedi> how do i allow autologin to remote desktop ,,,i want to access my ubuntu server over internet with vnc it prompt for allow and deny sort of message how do i autologin/auto allow
[13:00] <bullgard> !wireless | WIzz
[13:00] <omikron4> what wireless device do you have?
[13:00] <heartlesshero> i have a problem with the screen resolution, i had 1024 by 800 or something like that, then i shut it down last night and it booted up into 800 by 600. it dosent even show me the option to change it to 1024 by whatever, im running ubuntu
[13:01] <omikron4> what wireless device do you have?, WIzz
[13:01] <KSid> erUSUL: I thought so. For some reason, ufw 23.3 doesn't like kernel 2.6.32, guess I should upgrade it but doesn't make any sense why it stops all internal connections when iptables shouldn't be changed
[13:01] <KSid> erUSUL: Thanks
[13:02] <bullgard> heartlesshero: May be 'xrandr' helps you as a first step.
[13:03] <heartlesshero> bullgard: what do i have to do to change it?
[13:03] <bullgard> heartlesshero: I do not know. First, analyse the cause of your trouble.

[13:08] <xfact> Hello
[13:08] <kai_> xfact
[13:08] <xfact> Mozilla Firefox has any stable PPA for latest versions?
[13:09] <xfact> Kai_, :)
[13:09] <kai_> xfact, not yet
[13:09] <kai_> still under developing
[13:09] <omikron4> intel ipwXXXX?
[13:09] <Dr_Willis> bullgard:  figure out what res you want and enter the XxY #'s perhaps?
[13:09] <SocialNicheGuru> i am looking for an online admin tool like MAMP/LAMP. Can anyone recommend one webmin, virtualmin, ispconfig?
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> # note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> # you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
[13:10] <omikron4> then you have to see lspci and ldmod in order to see the modules loaded
[13:11] <omikron4> sorry lsmod
[13:11] <xfact> Ok I have upgreaded my Firefox 3.6 with a launchpad ppa, and now Firefox released 3.6.2 (cause Firefox 3.6 has a strong security leak and Mozilla strongly recommending to update to the latest version)  but no PPA(s0 for the latest version, what should I do?
[13:11] <bullgard> Dr_Willis: I have figured out what resolution I need. I figured out: _vga=0x0340_ .
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> bullgard:  and what res is that using then?    thats what you need to figure out.  Or you could run the vbeinfo like it suggests from a grub prompt and see what one it says.
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> The old fb docs i recall mention those hex codes. but i dont recall where i saw the table of colors/modes/res at
[13:13] <kirkmoreno> anyone here familiar with Sound Juicer
[13:13] <bullgard> Dr_Willis: This code translates to a reslution of 1400x1050 pixels.
[13:13] <xfact> Anyone can help?
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> bullgard:  so try setting that res line to be 1400x1050 then?
[13:14] <xfact> Or I can download the Firefox 3.6.2 tar.bz but how to replace it with mainstream Firefox?
[13:14] <omikron4> xfact deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> #GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> GRUB_GFXMODE=1440x1050
[13:14] <bullgard> Dr_Willis: What is a "res line"?
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> bullgard:  the line in the grub config file you have been editing
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> and ive been pasteing the #COMMENTS from
[13:15] <xfact> omikron4, sorry, I have tried that, and thats not my choice
[13:15] <Dr_Willis>  /etc/default/grub
[13:15] <xfact> Anyone al least can say in which folder Firefox installed in Ubuntu?
[13:16] <pure_hate> updatedb && locate mozilla*
[13:16] <bullgard> xfact: Firefox installs files in several different folders.
[13:16] <airtonix> xfact, you want to know where the firefox installed via apt-get is located on your system ?
[13:16] <obscurant1st> while installing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop i got lots of errors like dependencies and at the end of error messages it showed broken packages
[13:16] <omikron4> sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
[13:16] <omikron4> sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 247510BE
[13:16] <omikron4> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6
[13:17] <obscurant1st> so i fixed it via synaptic, but still the same eror showing
[13:17] <obscurant1st> how can i fix it?
[13:17] <obscurant1st> :o
[13:17] <Kre10s> hi!
[13:17] <airtonix> omikron4, why manually adding keys?
[13:17] <xfact> airtonix, That would help, because I am thinking about to replace all those files with latest 3.6.2 files (that should work...)
[13:17] <airtonix> !info add-apt-repository
[13:18] <meganerd> xfact: /usr/lib/firefox-<version-number>/firefox.sh
[13:18] <omikron4> you have to copy en konsole what I've print in screen
[13:18] <airtonix> xfact, ok so you're not happy with the firefox you installed from the ppa? and you want to use the version you manually downloaded from their site? is this right?
[13:18] <meganerd> xfact: do not replace files in here
[13:19] <Kre10s> I am reading this manpage... but cannot find the package to install motioneye. where can i get this package? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/gutsy/man1/motioneye.1.html
[13:19] <airtonix> xfact, by "their site" i mean mozillas website.
[13:19] <obscurant1st> while installing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop i got lots of errors like dependencies and at the end of error messages it showed broken packages, so i fixed it via synaptic, but still the same eror showing
[13:19] <obscurant1st> how can i fix this?
[13:19] <meganerd> xfact: what I do is download the version from mozilla.com, and then run it locally from my profile.  To do it system wide google for something called "diversion"
[13:19] <xfact> airtonix, Yup I was happy with Firefox 3.6 from PPA, but now Mozilla saying this version has a major security leak/fault
[13:20] <omikron4> then i can't help sorry
[13:20] <meganerd> xfact: the PPA version should be able to keep itself up to date
[13:20] <airtonix> xfact, ok. because as far as i know the tar.gz versions you get from mozilla are portable... meaning you don't need to put them in a particular place for them to work.
[13:20] <airtonix> xfact, or are you providing firefox for multiple users on your machine ?
[13:20]  * Dr_Willis seconds what airtonix  said
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> ive used the tar.gz binaries befor wth very few issues
[13:21] <xfact> airtonix, Yup but then the problem will be I have two Firefox(s), one in system (3.6) and one portable (3.6.2) so I was asking....]
[13:21] <fish> hi guys
[13:21] <xfact> meganerd, not yet there any 3.6.2 in the ppa
[13:21] <eremite> Is Google Chrome portable? I find it much faster than FireFox or Opera, even Midori.
[13:21] <airtonix> xfact, ok then a simple "sudo apt-get purge firefox" will get rid of your ppa version leaving your tar.gz version un-affected.
[13:22] <airtonix> eremite, not if you installed it via a deb package.
[13:22] <Bageshwar> !offline
[13:22] <xfact> eremite, No Google chrome comes with 32 bit and 64 bit deb/rpm package for mainstream install
[13:22] <Bageshwar> !aptoncd
[13:22] <airtonix> eremite, i think chrome is only portable as a windows version at the moment. i could be wrong.
[13:24] <xfact> Gosh! Why everything comes with tar.gz, rather then deb/rpm... :(
[13:25] <eremite> Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has used Remastersys before.  I used it twice.  The first time it worked as I assumed it would, but the second time it downloaded and reinstalled gnome and a bunch of stuff I did not want.  When I tried using it offline, the process would never complete.   In the end it should only be about a 400mb image, give or take.
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> actually i can only think of a few things that come with tar.gz
[13:25] <airtonix> xfact, packaging takes time.
[13:25] <xfact> airtonix, Thats fact
[13:26] <mattish> good afternoon, i have a workstation with 4 nic's and i want to send a multicast video stream using vlc on just one, how do i specify this ?
[13:26] <airtonix> xfact, well in relative terms it takes more time than it does to simply tar.gz a directory structure
[13:26] <LimitY> cant find icq in the servers list in x chat,,
[13:26] <obscurant1st> how to retrive the sources.lst, can i do it from the ubuntu cd?
[13:26] <airtonix> obscurant1st, yes. i assume you are using gnome desktop?
[13:26] <eremite> obscurant1st: yes it is possible.
[13:27] <VeGeTa-X> I need some help with ubuntu 9.10 klamav removed some critical files from ubuntu now the desktop flashes on and off and how do I restored the quaranteid files from klamav through command line?
[13:27] <obscurant1st> airtonix, yes i am using gnome desktop
[13:27] <obscurant1st> eremite, how can i do it?
[13:28] <airtonix> obscurant1st, applications > accessories > text editor
[13:28] <xfact> airtonix, yup but the problem only I get that is, bringing the icons an launchers of that file in the front on the application menu, and also in the launchers
[13:28] <xfact> *and
[13:28] <airtonix> obscurant1st, file > open
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> VeGeTa-X:  you are the second person ive seen in the last month that has had clamav remove stuff from a linux system. No idea if the other person ever got it fixed.. or did a reinstall
[13:28] <obscurant1st> airtonix, k..?
[13:28] <airtonix> obscurant1st, ctrl + L
[13:28] <airtonix> obscurant1st, type : /etc/apt/sources.list
[13:29] <airtonix> obscurant1st, of course this would be the sources.list of the live cd :)
[13:30] <obscurant1st> airtonix, this is from my system right, i think i hv corrupted it
[13:30] <VeGeTa-X> «~{ Dr_Willis }~»  yeah I selected user desktop and system folder and I it moved them to quarantine and I did not notice it was some critical files now I am login into the desktop and hte I see the desktop but the taskbar its just flashing
[13:30] <airtonix> obscurant1st, then your first objective is to get the hardrive mounted
[13:30] <obscurant1st> because i cannot install kubuntu-desktop , it says dependancy; cannot be installed,
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> VeGeTa-X:  these were files in the USERS home? or where exactly?
[13:30] <VeGeTa-X> ok I will just research and see if I can find something in the forums
[13:31] <VeGeTa-X> i think lib
[13:31] <VeGeTa-X> directory
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> VeGeTa-X:   Hard to tell then.. good question is why did clamav think they were bad.
[13:31] <obscurant1st> airtonix, can u pls tell me how do i get the default sources.lst from ubuntu cd?
[13:31] <xfact> APTonCD is a good application, I wish any other application can do that on removable drives
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> VeGeTa-X:  i only use the tools to scan my windows shares. :)
[13:31] <airtonix> obscurant1st, i believe i just did .
[13:32] <VeGeTa-X> yeah it even removed some files that were assocaited to klamav I remeber I was just have asleep and said just to quarantine
[13:32] <obscurant1st> /etc/apt/sources.list, this is from my installation, i want the sources.lst from ubuntu cd!
[13:32] <obscurant1st> airtonix, ^^
[13:32] <elb0w> Why is the default ubuntu server dl AMD64?
[13:33] <VeGeTa-X> «~{ Dr_Willis }~»  Well the reason I did the full ssytem scan is becuase I thought I saw a message in the comamnd line when I was shutting down saying virus found
[13:33] <elb0w> what if I have intel
[13:33] <VeGeTa-X> or I could have been seeing things
[13:33] <airtonix> obscurant1st, i assume you are using the live cd
[13:33] <airtonix> obscurant1st, i make alot of assumptions becuase you gave me very little information
[13:33] <obscurant1st> airtonix, no, i have installed ubuntu, i am using my installed ubuntu
[13:33] <Pici> elb0w: Because the 64bit specification that most computers use was created by AMD.
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> VeGeTa-X:  installing clamav - last i checked - does not  add any sort of auto-scaning features..
[13:34] <elb0w> will it run on intel?
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> elb0w:  intel 64bit yes
[13:34] <elb0w> ty
[13:34] <Pici> elb0w: Yes, but not Itanium IA64.
[13:34] <elb0w> Ok if I DL 32bit server will it have cloud capabilities
[13:34] <supintu> ciao
[13:34] <elb0w> im testing
[13:34] <airtonix> obscurant1st, you told me you were using the livecd. >> obscurant1st> how to retrive the sources.lst, can i do it from the ubuntu cd? <<
[13:35] <sudobash> I think you all package transmission and transmission-gtk as the default bt client simply because it has the best name for any bittorrent client ever, but seriously it is the slowest client ever...
[13:35] <airtonix> obscurant1st, however now that you say you are not, i will say that it is not possible sorry. the file you want is within a compressed volume
[13:36] <Bageshwar> apt-proxy problem ... GPG key not identified..... wot to do ?
[13:36] <obscurant1st> airtonix, oh, you misunderstood, may be its my bad english, sorry, i meant, i have installed ubuntu, i want to retriev the sources.lst from cd
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> sudobash:  and its also very tiny
[13:36] <obscurant1st> airtonix, so there is noway of retrieving sources.lst?
[13:36] <sudobash> so deluge works
[13:36] <airtonix> obscurant1st, ok the easiest way is to reboot with the livecd and then copy from there using the steps i gave you earlier
[13:37] <sudobash> and it gets really good speeds plus works with multiple torrent better I think
[13:37] <obscurant1st> oh, k, that is a good idea, thx
[13:37] <obscurant1st> :D
[13:37] <obscurant1st> airtonix,
[13:37] <ksbalaji> is there a simple video converter from mp4 to wmv avi etc?
[13:37] <airtonix> sudobash, its your subjective view thats all.
[13:38] <obscurant1st> ksbalaji, handbreak
[13:38] <airtonix> obscurant1st,
[13:38]  * xumuk says Hi all
[13:38] <ksbalaji> obscurant1st, thanks.
[13:38] <abhi_nav> hi
[13:38] <nytek_> anybody know what the problem is when ubuntu boots and asks me to reconfigure my display settings?
[13:38] <WhiteDawn> hello
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> ksbalaji:  winff,  and proberly others.. but most are front ends to ffmpeg. and mencoder. its worth learning the cli tools
[13:38] <nytek_> apparently it wants to boot in low graphic mode
[13:38] <sudobash> airtonix, sudo apt-get install devede ffmpeg transcode
[13:38] <airtonix> sudobash, ?
[13:39] <sudobash> airtonix, sudo apt-get install devede ffmpeg transcode mencoder
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> nytek_:  ive been seeing that every so often. and if i just tell it to restart the X server it gets it correctly the next time.. Not sure why
[13:39] <sudobash> that will install some stuff for you to do video transcoding
[13:39] <airtonix> sudobash, thanks for the help (for what i'm not sure yet)
[13:39] <ksbalaji> Dr_Willis, unfortunately, I am no good at commands. I use only GUI tools.
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> ksbalaji:  so go learn...
[13:39] <airtonix> sudobash, i think you meant to let someone else know that yes ?
[13:39] <sudobash> use devede and don't forget to set it to NTSC if you are not using PAL
[13:40] <sudobash> oh yeah maybe lol...
[13:40] <sudobash> ksbalaji
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> sudobash:  yep. i find that annoying some of devedes defaults
[13:41] <jessi> hola
[13:41] <abhi_nav> how to set ibus to default input method for permanant? I am using it for im, office aps and every aps. but it keeps changing to default when one session is closed
[13:41] <sudobash> I have ppl running DEVEDE that don't really know anything about computers... I just had to set the NTSC settings for them
[13:41] <jessi> hidiota
[13:41] <switchgirl> !pgp
[13:41] <nytek_> Dr_Willis: how do restart the x server again?
[13:42] <WhiteDawn> control alt backspace
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> sudobash:  i always seem to have to hit that one button to resize the video to fit the disks also. It never wants to set it to 100% by default. :)
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> nytek_:  sudo service gdm restart   is one way.
[13:42] <ksbalaji> Dr_Willis, my age and experience tell me that once started detailed learning, one does not use it for the purpose! A person using anything does not do detailed learning! I am 50+!
[13:42] <nytek_> WhiteDawn: i believe that doesnt work anymore in ubuntu
[13:42] <Pici> nytek_: s/ubuntu/xorg/
[13:42] <xumuk> nytek_, killall xorg | startx
[13:42] <korsakof> nytek_: on karmic: ALT-SysRq-K
[13:42] <nytek_> Dr_Willis: i deleted gdm, i didnt have any need for it
[13:42] <nytek_> do you think that might be the problem?
[13:42] <sudobash> yeah but it never seems to decrese in quality does it 4 you Dr_willis?
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> sudobash:  Since i normally do 'cartoons' for the grandkids. :) i rarely notice much quality issues
[13:43] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all
[13:43] <xumuk> nytek_, have kdm or xdm?
[13:43] <WhiteDawn> nytek: yeah its disabled by default, but you can enable it, its a usefull command
[13:43] <switchgirl> what is the best gui for pgp?
[13:43] <pak0> good evening all people
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> nytek_:  why did you delete gdm? whatr are you using instead of it?
[13:43] <nytek_> xumuk: gdm, for login
[13:43] <ksbalaji> sudobash, yes?
[13:43] <xumuk> ^mNotIntelligent, hi
[13:43] <nytek_> Dr_Willis: .xinitrc file
[13:43] <raven_> linux on mobile phone (samsung) - need some ideas of systems and ways to install/flash please
[13:43] <nytek_> Dr_Willis: running xmonad
[13:43] <senthil> Hi
[13:43] <pak0> what log can i see for detect the problem on my pc, just restarted
[13:43] <attila_lendvai> argh... linux-image-virtual installs files called linux-image-server?! took me some time to double check and stop looking for what's wrong...
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> nytek_:  then you just kill X and restart it then
[13:44] <sudobash> ksbalaji: sudo apt-get install devede ffmpeg mencoder transcode
[13:44] <xumuk> nytek_, U sad U've deleted it...
[13:44] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, which model of mobile phone ?
[13:44] <nytek_> Dr_Willis: ok ill try
[13:44] <senthil> is ubuntu is efficient than kubuntu
[13:44] <erUSUL> switchgirl: mail clients that integrate it seamlessly and seahorse to do some managment
[13:44] <switchgirl> !pgp
[13:44] <ksbalaji> sudobash, thanks.
[13:44] <erUSUL> !gpg
[13:44] <obscurant1st> snethil, efficient in the sense?
[13:44] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, samsung shg 5320
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  they are just different desktops/window managers..   I saw some benchmark site that comapred the 2. but for most people its not a big diffreance
[13:45] <hetii> hello :)
[13:45] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, how far you've been thru the installation,, or you want to start it ....
[13:45] <senthil> more faster & reliable... in that scence im asking
[13:46] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, want to start it - the system on that phone (whatever is might be) is like a cage to me
[13:47] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, do you have any kinda prior exposure to such kind of stufs ?
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> faster is relative.. both are decently reliable..  i imagine your NEEDS are more imporntant then any small time it takes to redraw a screen differance
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_desktop_vitals&num=1
[13:47] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, i mean have u installed linux on some other mobile phones ?
[13:47] <abhi_nav> नमस्कार
[13:47] <abhi_nav> just testin ibus
[13:48] <senthil> Dr_Willis: i know its same as ubuntu but has different desktop  environment... But i using kubuntu environment comparitively slower than ubuntu
[13:48] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, only theoretical but it would not be worse if the try fails - can only become better ;)
[13:48] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  kde is a little more memory heavy then gnome . yes. but i dont find it slower
[13:48] <WhiteDawn> senthil: i allways related kde to slugishness, maybe because i only used it on a live cd, but i stand by my statement
[13:48] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  of course if you were on a older machine with not as much power.. it would get more noticeable
[13:48] <tomjmalone> anyone have any luck installing lucid on a macbook pro, the installer never loads just get a flashing dash any ideas?
[13:48] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, yeh, agree with your views...
[13:48] <abhi_nav> senthil: hi
[13:49] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  i run both on my netbook and  i did turn off all the eyecandy on kde.. of course i did the same to gnome :)
[13:49] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  both are very useable
 not lucky enough to have a mac pro
[13:50] <senthil> Dr_Willis: noop i have good machine... slower means too many apps runs at same time its supports slowly...
[13:50] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, how to "upgrade" then?
[13:50] <tp43> I have a wierd issue with my video.  When I use my webcam and vlc or any other video player, sumultaneously, one of them goes dark ofter.  And most of the time I can close one, and its fine, but sometimes too ofter, even after closing the webcam program(cheese) the video players all play too dark.  And there is no remedy except to log out and back in.  I was wondering if anyone knew what I could do to reset the video without logging out and
[13:50] <tp43> in?
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  i doubt if you will notice any differance.
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> senthil:  its more about what you want to do with the desktop then anything else
[13:51] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, upgrade what ? you want to upgrade the os or want to do a fresh install on samsung
[13:51] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, fresh install
[13:52] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, okie... i dont have much idea on this... a little bit only... which i can share with you
[13:52] <senthil> none difference with kubuntu... just fascinating envirinment... And one touch desktop
[13:52] <raven_> ok
[13:52] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, lemme check if I can get some really good links/tutorials on the web that can help you playing around ....
[13:52] <raven_> ok thank you
[13:53] <senthil> Dr_willis: How to install C and C++ compiler??
[13:53] <WhiteDawn> anyone trying out 10.04?
[13:53] <shane2peru> help
[13:54] <Zonric> I have it in vbox
[13:54] <arand> WhiteDawn: -> #ubuntu+1
[13:54] <bpgoldsb> Does anyone know if 10.04 is going to have native Xen support?
[13:54] <arand> !lucid
[13:55] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, what is current OS on that model... i guess unless it has support for linux, you cant do an linux install, right /
[13:55] <bpgoldsb> Thanks.
[13:55] <ayam_jago> !karmic
[13:56] <senthil> Dr_willis:are u thr??
[13:57] <Bob_Dole> is there anyway to limit the bandwidth programs running under WINE can use?
[13:57] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, there are many youtube videos instructing how to install linux os on mobile phones... I dont remember if they have any specific to your case, btw
[13:57] <senthil> ubottu: are u thr??
[13:57] <raven_> ^mNotIntelligent, thats the thing: i do not know what kind of os i only know the version ( "s5230xpja1") so far the part of the *#1234# command. i do not really know any morew
[13:57] <ayam_jago> !purge
[13:57] <Bob_Dole> I'm trying to use the starcraft downloader/installer, but it apparently uses BT...and its upload kills my network, to the point that I can hardly SSH into the box in question
[13:59] <Bob_Dole> linux on most mobile phones is a dumb idea. they are very weak hardware that are very limited in resources and there's usually a massive lack of driver support for the hardware on them
[13:59] <natediddy> hey anyone know if MotoDev the dev studio is available via apt-get?
[13:59] <ayam_jago> Bob_Dole try virtualbox
[13:59] <^mNotIntelligent> raven_, then i must say, first get a good basics about all your current os, your hardware compatibility etc ... then read up some docs, watch you tube videos, then only plan for actually installing a new os on your phone...
[13:59] <natediddy> Bob_Dole, what about Droid and Nexus One
[13:59] <tp43> actually it might have to do with flash
[13:59] <natediddy> ?
[13:59] <^mNotIntelligent> natediddy, did you search thru apt-cache ?
[13:59] <ayam_jago> natediddy : try apt-get install moto-dev
[13:59] <raven_> ok
[14:00] <Bob_Dole> natediddy, I said most.
[14:00] <Bob_Dole> and android phones happen to be designed for it
[14:00] <Thraul> I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd for personal use. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the gnome menus on the live cd?
[14:00] <gerry1> anyone having trouble with sound in Lucid Beta?
[14:00] <Daih> Hey! Can some help me install diablo 2? I use blizzard digital install and I can start running installer but I can't select directory where install, it's only say: "Invalid path chosen! Please chose again"
[14:00] <natediddy> nah it must not be available that way
[14:01] <natediddy> said it wasnt found
[14:01] <pokyie> Hi
[14:01] <tp43> this is annoying, my video goes dark and I have to logout and in to restore.  I think it was caused by a flash update or something.  No idea really
[14:01] <^mNotIntelligent> natediddy, thsi is what i found: sudo apt-cache search moto-dev ........ libp2kmoto-dev - library for Motorola phones based on the P2K platform
[14:01] <natediddy> and i tried sudo apt-get also
[14:01] <pokyie> Does anyone got this file in their machine.
[14:01] <pokyie> 1. /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-1000-2.ucode
[14:01] <pokyie> 2. /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-1000-1.ucode
[14:01] <^mNotIntelligent> natediddy, is that what you're looking for ?
[14:02] <natediddy> it might be?
[14:02] <natediddy> i think it is
[14:02] <natediddy> actually
[14:02] <natediddy> but shouldnt it have worked when i did apt-get ?
[14:02] <yellabs> hi there, how can i get info about my hard disk on the bash?
[14:02] <natediddy> with sudo too?
[14:02] <ChrisRut> How can I jump to the EOF in nano?
[14:05] <DaZ> ChrisRut: ctrl+w + ctrl+v iirc :3
[14:05] <ct529> I am using the command find to find some files .... but I would like the command to avoid exploring hidden directories, like .wine .... hwo do you achieve  it?
[14:05] <natediddy> NotIntelligent thanx im installing it now
[14:06] <TecnoBrat> Anyone ever seen this?  Grey box when you first login http://tinypic.com/r/spccgh/5
[14:06] <ct529> I was thinking of using -prune ....
[14:07] <Thraul> I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd for personal use. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the gnome menus on the live cd?
[14:08] <tp43> ok I as able to adjust the video settings system wide using totem, but is there another program that I could use to do that?
[14:08] <Guest73177> hola
[14:08] <jIRC_User> teste
[14:08] <jIRC_User> teste?
[14:08] <eremite> tp43: I prefer VLC
[14:08] <xumuk> ct529, sudo find ~ -name .*
[14:09] <ct529> xumuk: no .... I am trying to AVOID searching the hidden directories
[14:09] <tp43> eremite, me too, but thing is, lately my video would go dark.  And I was logging out and in to reset them.   Then I figured out I can reset them in totem without logging in/out.  So I was wondering if I could reset them somewhere else, instead of openning totem (not a big deal)
[14:09] <ayam_jago> ct529 : sudo find .
[14:09] <ayam_jago> ?
[14:09] <tp43> I can just use totem
[14:10] <Acony> what is the name of the software which is used for screenshots in ubuntu ?
[14:10] <neopsyche> Hello all..
[14:10] <Guest73177> hello
[14:10] <tp43> Acony, gnome-screenshot
[14:10] <neopsyche> I am looking for volunteers.. is that allowed here.. for project for schools in africa.
[14:10] <ct529> ayam_jago: that will search in the present directory and all subdirectory INCLUDING the hidden directories .... not EXCLUDING the hidden directories
[14:11] <ayam_jago> ct529 : ssudo find / . -name *ae*
[14:11] <llutz> !ot > neopsyche
[14:11] <Acony> tp43, ok tnx, I want to invoke that program on print sc button, do u know how :D
[14:11] <troels> Hi ppl. I'm having some minor trouble. When i run sudo apt-get update, it says it ignores some linies: Ignorerer http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Translation-da   - I'm a kind of new to Linux - but I'd love som help with this
[14:12] <serverduck> Are there any ubuntu developers around here?
[14:12] <ChrisRut> DaZ: Thanks ctrl+w + ctrl+v did the trick, thanks
[14:12] <tp43> Acony, dunno, it works for me, I just hit printscrn and it comes up
[14:12] <ct529> ayam_jago: no it does not work ....
[14:12] <ayam_jago> ct529 : sudo find / . -name *yourfile*
[14:12] <ayam_jago> not work?
[14:12] <serverduck> I strongly beg you to do something about pppoe under ubuntu, it's a mess, nothing works.
[14:12] <WhiteDawn> ct529 you can also use locate *filename*
[14:12] <ct529> ayam_jago: no it does not work .... it still searches all the hideen directories as well
[14:13] <Acony> tp43, yeap I know it works on ubuntu but I am on debian, tnx anyway
[14:13] <serverduck> I can't get a stable pppoe connection, and I assure you it's not from my isp, my windows machine is working fine.
[14:13] <tp43> Acony, thats why I switched
[14:13] <serverduck> Uptime of 4 days and under ubuntu the same connections disconnects every day 2 or 3 times.
[14:13] <ct529> WhiteDawn: yes, but it is not recursive
[14:13] <serverduck> Could someone please tell me what to do?
[14:13] <ayam_jago> ct529: sudo find ~ . -name *yourfile*
[14:13] <Acony> tp43, :) no tnx, ubunutu is 2 much friendly for me

[14:17] <troels> ome linies: Ignorerer http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Translation-da   - I'm a kind of new to Linux - but I'd love some help
[14:17] <BluesKaj> Acony, gnome-screenshot in the apps menu
[14:17] <sipior> ranjan: this isn't the sort of thing we generally discuss in this channel :-)
[14:17] <troels>  Hi ppl. I'm having some minor trouble. When i run sudo apt-get update, it says it ignores some linies: Ignorerer http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Translation-da   - I'm a kind of new to Linux - but I'd love som help with this
[14:17] <nothing_> xiaoma
[14:17] <Acony> BluesKaj, sorry I don't get u ?
[14:17] <nothing_> hello
[14:17] <eugenio> ciao
[14:18] <eremite> When does Karmic support end?
[14:18] <nothing_> where are you from ,everyone
[14:18] <BluesKaj> Acony, it's a separate gui app
[14:18] <ranjan> sipior : I am sorry for that but .. I need help to find out an manufacturer .. so I asked
[14:18] <Acony> BluesKaj, I know that and I already got an answer, do u know how to invoke it on Print Sc button ?
[14:19] <Acony> I am not on ubunutu by the way...
[14:19] <illusive> Acony, System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts
[14:19] <illusive> Should be in there.
[14:19] <BluesKaj> nothing_, there are 1400 ppl in the chat , it would be best if you just ask your question
[14:19] <BluesKaj> Acony, but you use gnome , right ?
[14:19] <Acony> illusive, yeap that is true
[14:20] <eremite> !ask
[14:20] <Dr_Willis> ranjan:  ive seen dozens of Headphone+Mics - some are usb. some use the mic/audio out cables..  whats the problem exactly?
[14:20] <Acony> BluesKaj, yeap... but I have print button connected with take screenshot in keyboard shortcuts
[14:21] <troels> QUESTION. When i run sudo apt-get update, it says it ignores some linies: Ignores http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Translation-da   - I'm a kind of new to Linux - but I'd love som help with this
[14:21] <Acony> only the problem is that, I don't invoke gnome-screenshot application when I press print sc
 gimp also can do that
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> troels:  if there is no update for that location. then it skips it.  so its ignored.. (i think)
[14:22] <Acony> fabio333, Its about usability dude, I want to clone that ubunutu thing since I like it :D
[14:22] <BluesKaj> Acony, welcome to the club , I'm on kde and prntscrn doesn't work at all , so i just use a gui app
[14:22] <llutz> troels: that specific file doesn't exit in the repo so apt-get "ign"ores it
[14:22] <llutz> exist
[14:23] <troels> Dr_Willis,  okay - just seems funny- If I use the GUI update interface i downloads 48 of 49 packages, and then comes out with an error that it could not get some of the packages.
[14:23] <Acony> BluesKaj, but this is possible to fix, and it should not be complex :D
 to clone for?
[14:23] <ranjan> Dr_Willis: I am on Hp mini 110 and it is  having only one single point of input for mic/audio .. although i am having an ordinary headphone  with two jack but it's not supporting well ... so I am looking for an manufacturer who can meat my requirement ..
[14:23] <Acony> fabio333, print sc should invoke gnome-screenshot application
[14:23] <troels> Dr_Willis,  Ok, then I guess I just have to ignore it.
[14:24] <ayam_jago> troels: http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com/ no karmic there
[14:24] <fabio333> Acony>: the way it is i supose
[14:24] <troels> Acony, Buy another headset with a USB connection. That should solve your problem
[14:24] <troels> k
[14:24] <Dr_Willis> ranjan:  ive seen splitter plugs at radio shack for such combo ports.    Take the thing in and see if they can find a proper  splitter
[14:24] <superimpala> helooo there
[14:24] <Dr_Willis> ranjan:  or check the manuals for that  mini. could be they tell what you need to use.
[14:25] <Acony> troels, WTF ?, fabio333 LOL, I need to change it :P
[14:25] <superimpala> PreZLaptop: hi
[14:25] <troels> ayam_jago, Anyway of finding out what application was the cause of the error. yesteday I had n problems.
[14:25] <om26er> Acony, watch the language please
 as always i can't see the point
[14:26] <fabio333> my fault
[14:26] <ranjan> Dr_Willis:  according to the manual it says it's compatible to iphones  head phone ..
[14:26] <Acony> fabio333, it is much faster and easier to get dialog automatically when u press print sc so u can instantly save a pic
[14:27] <ubuntu> how to set static ip in ubuntu
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> ranjan:  that means very little to me.  Ive never owned an iphone. and never will
 when i press the stamp key i get the dialog
[14:27] <synfin> How can I forcibly reset (set?) the root password on Ubuntu 9.10?  I have an inoperative box boudn to NIS and the only way to figure out what is wrong demands root.  My normal trick of adding a grub command init=/bin/sh does not appear to work, maybe because Ubuntu is using the newest grub release.
[14:28] <Acony> fabio333, LOL are u reading my problems at all ? I am not on ubunutu and I want ubuntu functionality for that future, this is all about it :D
[14:28] <llutz> synfin: if you need root-access, use sudo -i
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> synfin:  append 'single' to the end of the  kernel options.  not that init trick. perhaps
[14:28] <synfin> No
[14:28] <synfin> single demands a root password
[14:28] <synfin> for "maintenance"
[14:28] <ayam_jago> troels: i think you should edit that source on /etc/apt/sources.list n remove that error link
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> synfin:  so you actually set a root password then?
[14:29] <ubuntu> how to set static ip i ubuntu
[14:29] <synfin> llutz: no, I do not have user access.  Sudo requires user access
[14:29] <troels> ayam_jago, Thanks - will try to do so
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> synfin:  boot live cd and chrroot in and reset is an way
[14:29] <synfin> Dr_Willis: No, I need to set one so I can become root.
[14:29] <ranjan> Dr_Willis:  ok thanks for your time .. I have to find some body in locality to gave an cross cake .. with that ..
[14:29] <synfin> Dr_Willis: there is no way to do it from grub?
[14:29] <llutz> ubuntu: edit /etc/network/interfaces, how to do is explained in "man interfaces"
 windows works the same... anyway that doesn bother me anymroe
[14:30] <illusive> Acony: I don't really have an answer then. I thought the dialog was a gnome feature not specific for Ubuntu.
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> synfin:  i never set a root password.. so i can use the single mode..
[14:31] <Acony> illusive, ok thanks, can u just give me the command line argument, how ubuntu calls gnome-screenshot ?
[14:31] <synfin> you mean, just hit "enter", no password?
[14:31] <Acony> is it gnome-screenshot --interactive or what ?
[14:31] <arand> synfin: unless specifically set up, single shouldn't require a pasword... And no activating a root account can't be done from grub I don't think.
[14:32] <synfin> arand: Isn't single user mode root?
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> synfin:  by default there IS no root users password. It may be wanting the main sudo users password.
[14:33] <illusive> gnome-panel-screenshot --window --delay 5
[14:33] <arand> synfin: kind-of, in ubuntu it's used for recovery, but yes it has root access.
[14:33] <illusive> That is the screenshot window with a delay of 5 seconds.
[14:34] <Acony> illusive, ok get it thanks a lot
[14:34] <Acony> solved :D
[14:34] <illusive> Awesome. =]
[14:34] <leighman> heya, anyone good on their bash scripting?
[14:35] <leighman> no necessarily good, in fact, just have any clue at all =D
[14:35] <BluesKaj> still doesn't connect your prntscrn key
[14:35] <synfin> let me go try those ideas then.  I just figured when it asked for a password it would have a password associated with it.
[14:35] <illusive> leighman: A bit. Need anything specific?
[14:35] <awsbr> OMG ... have many peoples here!
[14:36] <iammrtea08> there are many people here!
[14:36] <leighman> basically I'm testing builds of things, which I download to ~
[14:36] <arand> synfin: default for recovery mode is to not ask for password, if it does, it msy well have.
[14:36] <Dr_Willis> awsbr:  1471 - its a slow day

[14:37] <gbear14275> can anyone point me to a fix for the fact that my synaptic manager now lists almost every core package as being "manually" installed?  Not sure about others but would love to figure out how to resolve this
[14:38] <illusive> leighman: I actually have a script like that I need to build. One of the resources I was looking at: stackoverflow.com/questions/1587059/bash-find-highest-numbered-filename-in-a-directory-where-names-start-with-digits
[14:39] <gbear14275> when I select them and choose "automatically installed" it just moves them to the auto-removable section... not good
[14:40] <leighman> illusive: thanks, I'll take a look
[14:40] <Shila> hello
[14:40] <Shila> who are you?

[14:41] <troels> ayam_jago, sorry to ask, but how do I edit the source.list as a text file?
[14:41] <ayam_jago> troels: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:42] <arand> ayam_jago: troels: "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[14:43] <Dr_Willis> and why are we editing the sources.list anyway?
[14:43] <ayam_jago> Dr_Willis : removing some broken source link
[14:44] <Dr_Willis> gotta hate that. :)
[14:44] <ayam_jago> yeah, hh
[14:44] <Dr_Willis> just wanting to point out the use of /etc/apt/sources.d/ directory

[14:45] <Dr_Willis> xfact:  gnomes font settings control panel thing has several options you can play with
[14:46] <Solar_Flare> hi.
[14:46] <Solar_Flare> When I boot ubuntu it says, that it cant mount my root filesystems. Any hints what is going wrong?
[14:46] <xfact> re-question: Any 'tips' for increasing the font smoothing (I have played but haven't got batter answers)

[14:46] <allu2> hey, i have synth(one plugged in gameport) how i can know if ubuntu sees this synth and can have input from it?

[14:47] <jose> i'm your cousy
[14:47] <troels> Well - must admit - I'm not sure as to what to comment out. Guess I should have made a backup when I had the system working 100% :)
[14:48] <xfact> not decent... anyways never mind, thanks
[14:48] <Solar_Flare> xfact, tried details?
[14:48]  * Dr_Willis wonders what more is needed... whatever then..
[14:48] <leighman> illusive: I'm afraid I don't understand at all
[14:48] <Solar_Flare> There is nothing more than subpixel smoothing.
[14:48] <leighman> :P
[14:49] <troels> damn - I think i actually got i working :)
[14:49] <troels> thx all
[14:49] <xfact> Solar_Flare, Yup, I tried, but got no improved answer, so I am finally asking here for tips
[14:49] <Solar_Flare> xfact, what exactly do you want?
[14:49] <xfact> *improved results sounds batter
[14:50] <allu2> how i see devices on gameport on ubuntu?

[14:51] <allu2> Dr_Willis, i have synth that is plugged on gameport and i would like to try play with it, i installed rosegarden and qsynth but i have no clue why it's not working or how i can see if ubuntu even finds it
[14:51] <Solar_Flare> ayam_jago, it just says, that it cant mount the root filesystem.
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> ive noticed slight differances on how FF menu/items look. compared to the fonts in the gnome menu/items
[14:51] <xfact> Solar_Flare, Thanks
[14:52] <MousieAway> Firefox got bugs.
[14:52] <MousieAway> Google Chrome is better.
[14:52] <Solar_Flare> Dr_Willis, I dont really care about that. I use chromium.
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> allu2:  check 'dmesg' output or /var/log/messages    and see if the  kernel shows any info on it. Ive never used any midy/synth stuff. so thats about all i can suggest

[14:56] <pigdude> I cannot install mit-scheme and I'm not sure why. The package seems to exist. http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mit-scheme

[14:57] <Urda> Question: is this the right command to delete files older than 30 days in a folder? --$ find /path/to/files* -mtime +30 -exec rm {} \;
[14:57] <llutz> !info mit-scheme
[14:57] <elb0w> For ubuntu Private Cloud, when it asks for the IP Range can someone explain this further to me?\
[14:57] <pigdude> llutz, yep
[14:58] <vinu> i m using nokia n70 so i need a nokia file browser to view the phone content is there anything like that
[14:58] <pigdude> mit-scheme-doc is available, not mit-scheme
[14:58] <leagris> Urda, if you are unsure you may replace rm {} with ls -l or simply check the output of find without exec
[14:58] <erUSUL> Urda: /path/to/directory
[14:59] <Urda> erUSUL: sorry, should have said I was already cd'd into the dir I want to use
[14:59] <Urda> leagris: ok
[15:00] <straterra> Any ideas?
[15:00] <DarkStar1> Anyone know what the seahorse daemon is?
[15:00] <erUSUL> Urda: then use . --> find . -mtime +30 -delete (i would run it with -ptint instead of -delete first to make sure )
[15:00] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: seahorse manages keys and paswords for the gnome desktop
[15:00] <erUSUL> Urda: -print
[15:01] <Urda> ptint?
[15:01] <Urda> print
[15:01] <Urda> oh ok
[15:01] <DarkStar1> erUSUL: thanks
[15:01] <leagris> Uranellus, I really hope next Ubuntu will have correct reliable BTRFS with filesystem snamshots, this will enable safer operation. Snapshot before deleting, check, if ok remove snapshot.
[15:01] <vinu> is there any nokia file browser
[15:01] <leagris> ooups soreau not Uranellus but Urda
[15:02] <Urda> ah ok. well the command looks right, thanks so much leagris and erUSUL :)

[15:06] <pigdude> 64
[15:06] <pigdude> ah that explains that

[15:12] <allu2> Dr_Willis, i can play .mid files but i still can't produce any sound from the synth :(
[15:12] <CartoonCat> apt <will not> get past "handbreak-gtk" being missing, when that package was isntalled FROM handbreak-svn . deb
[15:12] <autoclesis> can you get flash drives with remix on them somewhere
[15:13] <lifestream> Anyone know how to delete schema from gconf-editor? I want to actually delete it, not just unset the values. TIA
[15:13] <CartoonCat> now, i can not add or remove any packages till the -gtk is installed, so how do you resolve such obsurdness? Yes i have tried the force options for dpkg and apt-get
[15:14] <elb0w> So why couldnt ubuntu install Grub
[15:14] <elb0w> wtf
[15:14] <DarkStar1> 2 quick questions: 1) What's the command for clearing the terminal screen 2) what's the command for aliasing commands I sorta  remember that existing on unix in my unix days :D

[15:14] <Diverdude> hi. I am using a remote desktop system called thinlinc, but for some reason i cannot copy something in thinlinc to the clipboard and paste it into ubuntu. How can i fix that?
[15:14] <perlsyntax> How do i get the virgin modile usb to work with modem-manager?
[15:14] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: 1) clear 2) alias ls='ls -l'
[15:14] <Pici> lifestream: The last time I needed to do that, I deleted the files/directories themselves from ~/.gconf/  I'm not sure if there is a more official/supported method.
[15:15] <lifestream> Pici, thanks, let me try
[15:15] <straterra> This is a rampant problem, why hasn't it been fixed yet?
[15:15] <perlsyntax> i hope someone knows.
[15:15] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: the alias get set in ~/.bashrc usually
[15:15] <allu2> anyone have experience on gameport devices
[15:16] <Solar_Flare> DarkStar1, set your aliases in ~/.bash_aliases and then type into your terminal source ~/.bashrc
[15:16] <Diverdude> hi. I am using a remote desktop system called thinlinc, but for some reason i cannot copy something in thinlinc to the clipboard and paste it into ubuntu. How can i fix that?
[15:16] <DarkStar1> thanks guys
[15:16] <Solar_Flare> Diverdude, thats seems to be a problem of thinlinc, not ubuntu
[15:16] <allu2> huoh :(
[15:17] <DarkStar1> but so far: alias clear='cls' isn;t working for me atm
[15:17] <Diverdude> Solar_Flare, well i think there exists some sort of clipboard fix for ubuntu
[15:17] <BMUser> Hey, I have a very unique question regarding Skype. Is there a way to lock it down similar to Reg tweaks on Windows? Thanks
[15:17] <Diverdude> Solar_Flare, because it has problems in general it seems
[15:17] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: you surely meant ---> alias cls=clear
[15:17] <uvacav> anyone know of a method to use a widescreen resolution on a non-widescreen monitor? (nvidia card, black bars at top and bottom are fine)
[15:17] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: clear is the actual command cls does not exist
[15:17] <DarkStar1> erUSUL: AAAHH WITHOUT THE QUOTES
[15:18] <Solar_Flare> oh noes...
[15:18] <Solar_Flare> !ask > Solar_Flare
[15:18] <Diverdude> Solar_Flare, also if i copy something to the clipboard and then close the application i copied from i cannot paste what i copied any longer
[15:18] <erUSUL> DarkStar1: no i left out the quotes becouse it is a single word. the problem is  clear=cls vs cls=clear
[15:19] <Diverdude> Solar_Flare, so that has nothing to do with thinlinc
[15:19] <Diverdude> Solar_Flare, i am pretty sure the ubuntu clipboard is buggy
[15:19] <DarkStar1> erUSUL: Oh!!! now I'm embarassed
[15:19] <Solar_Flare> works fine for me.

[15:30] <denis__> How can I update packages in 9.04 without updating to 9.10 itself? I mean, the 'most recent' versions of packages available for Jaunty are very stale in terms of Karmic

[15:31] <Enverex> Changing the "Mouse Sensitivity" seems to have no effect in Gnome although the Accelleration does. Pretty sure I had the same issue on my old laptop. Is there a way around this?

[15:31] <abhi_nav> hello all !!!
[15:31] <leagris> BMUser, if you move skype to a specific user install and only allow its use with that user via some sudo script, users will not be able to access recieved files or transmit theirs unless they can allow anonymous access to their homedir. then you may as well run skype in a chroot environment. By the way Skype is a closed source blackbox legitimately you can't trust as skypes takes hoops and heavy encoding to hide it's protocols and internals.
[15:32] <DarkStar1> gparted: format the other partitions (except swap) or delete them then apply the actions

[15:36] <fiyawerx> It seems to be defaulting to my dvi/19" lcd, as opposed to the hdmi 24"

[15:36] <akshay> i aborted the "apt-get update" process in between by ctrl+z.....now when i tried redoing it...it gives an error reffering to come lock problem..kindly help
[15:36] <DopeGhoti> Has anyone been getting GPG errors when using apt in the last day or two? [Karmic]
[15:37] <iceroot> DopeGhoti: apt-get update
[15:37] <DopeGhoti> iceroot: I have, to no avail
[15:37] <dahud> I replaced gnome-screensaver with xscreensaver, and now I want to revert back to gnome screensaver. How do I do this?
[15:37] <leagris> dailystruggle, ok I have a private chat with you about your help request with Thunderbird
[15:37] <DopeGhoti> iceroot: I have also tried apt-key update
[15:37] <abhi_nav> akshay: make sure that only one synaptic or software center or add/remove instance is running. not more than one
[15:37] <erUSUL> akshay: crtl + Z does not abort crtl + C does. ctrl + Z stops it
[15:37] <vikram> each time when i restart my computer , it will stay with the grub screen until you hit "enter", how to set a default system in grub and not to show the grub-selection screen? thank you
[15:38] <erUSUL> akshay: so the first apt command is still running (stopped) and holding the lock
[15:38] <erUSUL> akshay: run « jobs » in the terminal you launched it
[15:38] <gparted> DarkStar1- , what i did was ran 9.10 and 10.04 side by side, and just want to have 9.10 by itself
[15:38] <DarkStar1> gparted: which is it you want to do. If you want to reclaim the partitions then I suggest you delete them otherwise format them. Remember they must be unmounted 1st before you do any such operation
[15:38] <spazic> How do i set what group has access to a certain folder?
[15:38] <akshay> arusaul: ok let me see
[15:38] <gparted> right
[15:38] <llutz> spazic: sudo chgrp folder
[15:38] <erUSUL> !permissions | spazic
[15:39] <DopeGhoti> spazic: chgrp
[15:39] <spazic> thanks, i tried but i goofed somehow - brb
[15:39] <troels> anyone got teamspeak 3 to work with Ubuntu 9?
[15:39] <akshay> erusul: what did oyu mean..run. jobs
[15:39] <DarkStar1> gparted: so make sure you isolate the right partitions and changes have to be applied one at a time per partition
[15:39] <erUSUL> akshay: jobs is a shell command it will show you the apt job you stopped with crtl + Z
[15:39] <gparted> ok, thank you DarkStar1
[15:39] <DopeGhoti> akshay: «jobs» will show you any jobs you suspended with ^Z
[15:40] <DopeGhoti> akshay: if that's the only one listed, you can resume it with «fg»
[15:40] <akshay> dopeghoti: it show me nothing
[15:40] <erUSUL> akshay: you can continue the apt you stoped just do « fg %1 » (that will bring to foreground the job 1 )
[15:40] <WhiteDawn> akshayL you can also just reboot :P
[15:41] <DopeGhoti> akshay: are you running it from the same terminal you started the apt job on?
[15:41] <DarkStar1> How do I find out which version of crashbuntu :P I'm using at the moment
[15:41] <erUSUL> !aptlock | akshay then try this
[15:41] <DarkStar1> WhiteDawn: thanks
[15:41] <akshay> dopeghoti: i closed that terminal at that time..and then reopened it again

[15:42] <DopeGhoti> DarkStar1: dpkg-query -l «packagename»
[15:42] <DarkStar1> WhiteDawn: that just gives me the kernel version I need the OS version.. i.e. Kharmic/Lucid
[15:42] <DarkStar1> DopeGhoti: Thanks
[15:43] <DopeGhoti> DarkStar1: my pleasure

[15:45] <WhiteDawn> denis: try disabling the special effects in compiz
[15:45] <DopeGhoti> DarkStar1: Oh, I thought you wanted the version of a package, not the release you were using. Apologies.

[15:52] <epaphus> Hello . According to http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-C-Media  the chipset C MEDIA CMI8738 is listed as supported. But when I click there it gives a bunch of instructions to get it to work. My question is.. does it work with UBuntu out of the box with the default alsa drivers? or do i have to go through all of that to make it to work?
[15:52] <alex__c2022> what are the benefits of using Ubuntu vs cent OS for web server or mysql server
[15:52] <abhi_nav> hareldvd: yah mac, power pc, etc
[15:53] <dailystruggle> no it would be fresh and for a while ... this just started today

[15:58] <theadmin> vargadanis: Maybe #kde ?
[16:01] <DarkStar1> I've just used synaptic to download and install (Well I thought I did anyways) nVidia drivers but when I check under Administration=>Hardware Drivers, there's nothing installed
[16:01] <theadmin> DarkStar1: It won't be there if you installed manually
[16:02] <Crepy> How i disable service, what is doing mdns query ptr
[16:02] <hal> does anyone have any suggestions for a command line gui wizard for iptables?  Something like lokkit (as it is no longer maintained)
[16:02] <DarkStar1> I don't think I installed it manually. I installed this copy of kharmic a few days back whilst in Live CD mode
[16:02] <lurditas> hola
[16:02] <hal> I have a box without any window manager
[16:03] <Myrtti> hal: ufw?
[16:03] <lurditas> chao
[16:04] <DarkStar1> theadmin: I don't think I installled my drivers manually. I installed kharmic a few days back whilst in livecd mode and only just logged back on today
[16:04] <hal> Myrtti: it doesn't have a gui ;)
[16:04] <theadmin> DarkStar1: You just said you did. Synaptic counts as "manually"
[16:04] <hal> Myrtti: I'm lazy, you see! ;)
[16:05] <hareldvd> abhi_nav, Do you know where I can find a list of those target machines for Ubuntu installation?
[16:05] <Pici> hal: gufw has a gui interface, ufw is cli only.
[16:05] <DarkStar1> theadmin: wasn't aware synaptic was considered manual installation :-$
[16:05] <WhiteDawn> hal: lol if you were lazy you'd install a gui so you wouldent need to use cl :P
[16:05] <hal> Pici: no, I mean a command line wizard, like lokkit
[16:05] <hal> WhiteDawn: ok, I'm a bit lazy then! ;p
[16:07] <theadmin> Yay! I got another man into Linux... It's so hard to do :/
[16:07] <gordi> hola
[16:07] <gordi> hello
[16:07] <theadmin> Hi, gordi.
[16:07] <theadmin> ...what the? :/
[16:08] <DarkStar1> I need to configure remote desktop with more that the basic settings I can see the the GUI that comes with ubuntu. any ideas how to get under the bonnet?
[16:09] <Flare183> DarkStar1: x11vnc :D
[16:09] <DarkStar1> for instance I'd like to limit access to a username password pair
[16:09] <Flare183> DarkStar1: x11vnc is your answer :P
[16:10] <DarkStar1> Flare183: is that a gui tool or do I need to start file editing ?:-/
[16:10] <MuPOHbI4> q
[16:11] <theadmin> Flare183: It's a program, i think it's in the repos.
[16:11] <Flare183> DarkStar1: x11vnc is all command line/terminal based
[16:11] <Flare183> theadmin: I know, I use it almost everyday
[16:11] <theadmin> Flare183: Uups. Meant to send it to DarkStar1
[16:12] <theadmin> Flare183: Hm, strange, a cli tool that has relation to X... Not much of them
[16:12] <Flare183> theadmin: It works tho :P :)
[16:12] <DarkStar1> Flare183: aaahh crap..  any GUI substitute?? I'm a relative noob and ah aint got the time to be reading up on settings and file tampering?
[16:13] <Flare183> DarkStar1: dude, just read the manual; man x11vnc
[16:13] <theadmin> DarkStar1: Try the tool from jrdesktop.net, it's rather simple.
[16:13] <Wipster> can I start evolution in offline mode, or edit the account settings when its not running. I mis typed the address of the exchange server gal and now it doesn't want to open untill it sees it
[16:13] <theadmin> DarkStar1: Needs Java though
[16:13] <theadmin> Flare183: _nobody_ new likes reading the manuals :/
[16:14] <Flare183> Wipster: Yes run it like this: evolution --ofline
[16:14] <Flare183> oops
[16:14] <Flare183> Wipster: correction: evolution --offline
[16:14] <DarkStar1> At the moment I've remote desktop'ed in from my windows machine using a client on windows however I need to ok the connection on the server side (ubuntu)
[16:14] <Flare183> theadmin: fail. That's just people being lazy
[16:14] <grega_> Hello there! I have a question. I want to reduce my display resolution, I type sudo nvidia-settings and when i hit Save to configuration file i get an error: failes to parse exsisting X config file 'etc/x11/xorg.conf' help please!
[16:14] <Flare183> DarkStar1: ssh?
[16:14] <DarkStar1> so that means there's a VNC server installed as standard
[16:14] <theadmin> Flare183: Well, at least Windows users are not used to being lazy.
[16:15] <Kwpolska> oh god
[16:15] <DarkStar1> nah I'm using something called tightvnc
[16:15] <DopeGhoti> grega_: to get the settings to stick, use sudo nvidia-settings
[16:15] <theadmin> Flare183: Err what did i just say o_O I meant to say "not used to reading man's"
[16:15] <Flare183> o.O
[16:15] <Kwpolska> ubuntu 10.04 fails to start in virutalbox, wtf?
[16:15] <DarkStar1> and I don't know whether it's going over SSH
[16:15] <asifkd> hello
[16:15] <grega_> DopeGhoti, i did type sudo nvidia-settings and i still get this error :S
[16:15] <Flare183> !ubuntu+1 | Kwpolska
[16:15] <theadmin> Kwpolska: Check the ISO integrity and crap, and also Lucid is NOT stable, we don't support it here, go to #ubuntu+1
[16:15] <Wipster> Flare183, I have tried that but I just get a hanging terminal and nothing happening
[16:16] <DopeGhoti> grega_: you could try renaming the present xorg.conf, then start nvidia-settings again
[16:16] <Flare183> Wipster: Try this then, evolution --offline --disable-eplugin
