[00:01] <Amaranth> evon: oh, ati :/
[00:01] <Gho> n_nm: sounds like your HTTP server doesn't have PHP installed
[00:01] <evon> Amaranth: yup unfortunately
[00:01] <f4000> @ubottu I try on the first tutorial and give me this: f4000@f4000-laptop:~$ ls /dev/video*
[00:01] <f4000> ls: cannot access /dev/video*: No such file or directory
[00:01] <ar> Gho may i install galternatives
[00:01] <n_nm> Amaranth: yes i did
[00:01] <Amaranth> n_nm: did you restart apache?
[00:01] <evon> Amaranth: If push comes to shove I may have to use unetbootin for windows
[00:01] <lakotajames> how do I tell what my ip address is?
[00:02] <Gho> lakotajames: http://www.ipchicken.com for your public IP; ifconfig for your actual IP(s)
[00:02] <usser> eseven73, here's a little script http://pastebin.com/f6f43e637
[00:02] <Eevee> lakotajames: right-click the network icon on your panel > connection info
[00:02] <Amaranth> evon: yeah, if moving the config away didn't help some library or piece of X got messed up
[00:02] <n_nm> Amaranth : yes
[00:02] <Gho> n_nm: did you instll PHP separately from apache? (i. e. in a separate install action)?
[00:02] <Amaranth> n_nm: i dunno, you must have manually modified the apache config or something
[00:02] <unop> setuid, regenerate your locales and that goes away
[00:02] <evon> Amaranth: ok well then i have to reinstall ubuntu?
[00:02] <eseven73> usser, ok ill check that out thanks
[00:02] <xmetalcorex> what can i do with the  that problem  /proc/sys/net/ipv4  not  found ??????????????
[00:02] <Amaranth> evon: Or reinstall every X-related package
[00:02] <xmetalcorex> plez help
[00:03] <Gho> n_nm: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure apache  (or apache2, or which ever package you have installed for apahce)
[00:03] <setuid> unop, Nope, didn't help
[00:03] <setuid> unop, Found this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75493
[00:03] <setuid> followed the instructions, didn't help
[00:03] <unop> setuid,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[00:03] <evon> Amaranth: how do i do that?
[00:03] <n_nm> Gho: no i installed them
[00:03] <setuid> unop, Yep, did that, didn't help
[00:03] <setuid> unop, Unless I have to log out and back in
[00:03] <Amaranth> evon: apt-get --reinstall install <manually type every X package here>
[00:03] <unop> setuid,  you do
[00:03] <Gho> n_nm: even so, try the reconfigure command, restart apache, and try once more
[00:04]  * Amaranth goes back to working on the garcon library
[00:04] <Amaranth> sorry guys, programming calls :)
[00:04] <n_nm> Gho : ok i'm traying
[00:04] <evon> Amaranth: i don't know what the x packages are. how would i find them?
[00:04] <Amaranth> evon: You kind of just have to know, I guess
[00:04] <evon> n_nm: please forgive me I'm not that command line savvy. I don't know how to do those things
[00:04] <Amaranth> evon: I don't remember what all of them are
[00:05] <xmetalcorex> plez  can some one give me a hand of help
[00:05] <evon> Amaranth: maybe a google search will help me ;-)
[00:06] <xmetalcorex> i have that problem with that proc/sys/net/ipv4  not  found ??????????????
[00:06] <helper> helo i did sudo cat ./uptime > kadserver when it create file kadserver don't copy text from uptime to kadserver why ?
[00:06] <n_nm> Gho : i did it by no results,  i'll intall them again
[00:06] <Gho> Anyone here have good bluetooth-fu? I'm trying to use my cell phone's bluetooth modem profile, but can't get the modem set up- farthest I've gotten was to get the laptop paired with the phone.
[00:07] <jrib> helper: pastebin
[00:07] <n_nm> evon : what command ?
[00:07] <Eevee> helper: er, that will copy the contents of the file called 'uptime'
[00:07] <the1corrupted> AnnonyMouse1: Well, I have found various things online, including altering my xorg.conf, and have come to rather distrust most of what I see due to the fact the xorg.conf alteration crashed my ubuntu.
[00:07] <evon> Amaranth: google is not helping much
[00:07] <Gho> helper: try just 'uptime > kadserver'
[00:07] <Amaranth> evon: yeah, it won't
[00:08] <Amaranth> evon: this machine has internet access?
[00:08] <evon> Amaranth: yes it does
[00:08] <h00k> I'm using Nautilus' right click -> Share Options and I have all three boxes checked (Share, Allow other people, and Guest Access) yet when trying to connect remotely (even locally with smb://mycomputername), I am getting "Failed to mount Windows share"
[00:08] <sobczyk> hi, how to check which driver is ubuntu using for my radeon card?
[00:08] <Amaranth> evon: you could pastebin your Xorg.0.log
[00:08] <helper> Eevee, i did an script in it #!/bin/bash then uptime then i  want to copy the uptime to kadserver so i did cat ./uptime > kadserver was mine right ? because it copy all text uptime to kadserver
[00:08] <Gho> h00k: do you have samba server installed?
[00:08] <exco> on my installed ubuntu standby isn't working (laptop) but with a live cd it is - can I reinstall the affected parts (packages)?
[00:09] <h00k> Gho: yes and I've restarted since I've installed it, also.
[00:09] <ubuntu_> hello, can anybody tell me how to mount winxp C/D drives under 'Try Ubuntu w/o installation' mode?
[00:09] <Amaranth> evon: there is some command line tool for pastebin
[00:09] <evon> n_nm: sorry when I saw the word even in what you were saying to someone else i thought it was my name and that you were talking to me
[00:09] <h00k> Gho: it prompted me as soon as I checked "Share this folder"
[00:09] <Gho> h00k: is the client a Windows or Linux machine?
[00:09] <h00k> Gho: linux
[00:09] <evon> Amaranth: ok i will try that now
[00:09] <n_nm> evon : no probleme
[00:09] <h00k> Gho: I tried to connect to my own machine, also
[00:10] <Amaranth> evon: I'd find the tool but my internet seems to have decided new connections will just hang so I can't google
[00:10] <Amaranth> either that or lists.ubuntu.com went down
[00:10] <Gho> h00k: my first question then would be, why not use NFS? :)  That said..  sudo smbmount <IP_ADDRESS>:/share /path/to/mountmount  What output do you get from that?
[00:10] <chuck_> sobczyk, it's in your Xorg.0.log file
[00:10] <lakotajames> Gho: Thanks
[00:10] <AlsaPCM> hi ppl i am trying to run a game in windows it open but the image is the same as my background image ( i am running ubuntu 9.04 and windows is installed on virtualbox)
[00:11] <AlsaPCM> any suggestions?
[00:11] <Amaranth> evon: looks like it's called pastebinit
[00:11] <Amaranth> !info pastebinit
[00:11] <evon> Amaranth: i can do this in recovery mode with networking? i should install this command with apt?
[00:11] <subatomickiller4> hello
[00:11] <Amaranth> evon: yeah, install that package and use pastebinit to pastebin your Xorg.0.log
[00:12] <h00k> Gho: smbmount:  command not found
[00:12] <helper> what's wrong with this ! #!/bin/bash then cd /home/kad/Desktop then sudo uptime > kadserver ?
[00:12] <evon> Amaranth: ok installing it now
[00:12] <ubuntu_> sorry, once again: can anybody tell me how to mount WinXP C/D drives under 'Try Ubuntu w/o installation' mode? I am newbie, sorry
[00:13] <th0r>  helper why use sudo? uptime will work for a normal user
[00:13] <helper> th0r, ok i remove it
[00:13] <Amaranth> !ntfs | ubuntu_
[00:13] <Gho> helper: how about #!/bin/bash  uptime > ~kad/Desktop/kadserver  ?
[00:13] <h00k> Gho: recent 9.04 install (as of a few hours ago),up to date, etc.
[00:13] <Eevee> helper: what is that supposed to do?
[00:13] <th0r> helper, and instead of changing directories, just 'uptime > /home/kad/Desktop/kadserver
[00:14] <ubuntu_> thanks a lot!
[00:14] <cmdbbq> i found this guide on how to enable automatic login: http://tinyurl.com/qc3ndj but it doesn't prompt for a password; i am looking for a way to have ubuntu assume it is me that wants to login but to prompt for my password; the desired behavior would be similar to what i am presented with when i resume from suspend; any ideas?
[00:14] <Gho> h00k: Sorry, it's been a long time since I've used Samba; I use NFS for most of my shares now :)
[00:14] <bobbob1016> For some reason my firefox started acting up.  It doesn't do the auto-complete thing it used to, I lost my bookmarks, and when I open a new tab it copies over the address from the last tab, any ideas what this can be?
[00:14] <helper> thx :*
[00:14] <h00k> Gho: I'll look into NFS, thanks
[00:14] <th0r> helper, if you put that one command line in as a cron job it will automatically update at whatever interval you specify
[00:14] <Gho> h00k: IMO it's a lot better for linux-to-linux sharing.  If you need it secure, look also into sshfs
[00:15] <helper> th0r, if i want to add this time to /etc/motd i use echo > or what?
[00:15] <m3dlg> I don't know why but my video is screwing me up - the computer crashes as soon as it starts to load the desktop
[00:15] <th0r> helper, if you want to add it to the end of /etc/motd then use 'uptime >> /etc/motd'
[00:15] <helper> ah double >>
[00:15] <helper> okie :D
[00:15] <th0r> helper, the two '>>' will append to the file instead of replacing it
[00:16] <evon> Amaranth: ok 2 things. when i type pastebinit or pastebin it tells me commmand not found. I also found a file called xorg.conf.failsafe. if i change the name of the aforementioned file to exclude the failsafe part, would it help?3
[00:16] <nowth> When I burn a Linux ISO with K3b and the verification fails, but a DVD image ripped from the failed (?) burned DVD has the same md5sum as the original ISO file... did it work after all, or not?
[00:16] <Gho> helper: careful, that'll add to the end, every time, so after a while, the motd will be endless streams of uptime output
[00:16] <helper> thx :*
[00:16] <Amaranth> evon: Only if X managed to automatically start after failing with your current config
[00:16] <Amaranth> evon: That's what the failsafe one is
[00:16] <Amaranth> evon: also, you have to install pastebinit
[00:16] <joaopinto> nowth, if the md5sum of the cloned iso matches, it's ok
[00:16] <Amaranth> evon: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[00:16] <th0r> Gho, good point
[00:17] <Gho> helper: you want the system uptime to be displayed whenever a user logs in, yes?
[00:17] <nowth> joao, thanks... just wish the verification wouldn't fail then
[00:17] <evon> Amaranth: i did that and it installed. should i try it again?3
[00:17] <helper> Gho, i want the uptime to be posted in /etc/motd
[00:17] <Amaranth> evon: no, just run pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[00:17] <Gho> helper: is that ALL you want in the MOTD?
[00:17] <U-b-u-n-t-u> Gho I figured it out
[00:18] <helper> Gho, i want with the MOTD to paste the uptime of the server
[00:18] <U-b-u-n-t-u> Gho was a bad cable =_=
[00:18] <Gho> helper: yes, but do you want anythong other than the output of uptime in the MOTD?
[00:18] <Gho> U-b-u-n-t-u: that'd do it ;)
[00:18] <helper> Gho, nah
[00:18] <U-b-u-n-t-u> =) working now!
[00:18] <helper> th0r, btw the uptime >> /etc/motd didn't work
[00:18] <helper> ah
[00:18] <helper> wait it work now :)
[00:18] <evon> Amaranth: http://pastebin.com/f41c8526a
[00:18] <th0r> helper, right....once we moved to /etc you need sudo
[00:19] <helper> now i'll crontab
[00:19] <Gho> helper: in that case, a cron job that does a 'uptime > /etc/motd' would do the trick.  That's sort of deer-hunting with a cruise missile though
[00:19]  * ror likes fortune in the MOTD
[00:20] <Gho> ror: I prefer it in my .profile and/or .bashrc
[00:20] <byte^> Can I receive some assistance on configuring my Sound Blaster card for Ubuntu?
[00:20] <Gho> !ask | byte^
[00:21] <byte^> Certainly.
[00:21] <Amaranth> evon: that looks like it started with vesa
[00:21] <Amaranth> evon: bad though, it couldn't load ati or radeon
[00:21] <ben__> Why does my popup notifications give the following error: Error while displaying notification: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files
[00:21] <Amaranth> evon: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-ati
[00:21] <Amaranth> evon: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[00:21] <Amaranth> evon: run those and restart X
[00:22] <helper> Gho, aha ya also it will add another text with old time new time , not replace time
[00:22] <byte^> I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE card that is either not being read by Ubuntu or is not configured therein. I was wondering if there was some tool that would allow me to work with either the ALSA or OSS (I forget which Ubuntu employs) to configure this.
[00:23] <Gho> helper: if you use > and not >>, the MOTD should have only the output of uptime in it as recently as the last iteration of your cron job
[00:24] <evon> Amaranth: when you say reinstall x do you mean reboot or type startx?
[00:24] <byte^> I am unfamiliar with the procedure on configuring audio, but many people in the forums purport to be able to simply "plug and play" with my sound card.
[00:24] <Amaranth> evon: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[00:25] <Gho> byte^: sadly (sort of), I'm one of those- my SB Audigy card 'just works', so I can't offer too much help :(
[00:25] <joaopinto> byte^, have you checked the level on alsamixer ?
[00:25] <byte^> Yes, I am certain that it has nothing to do with the configured sound levels.
[00:26] <Gho> Amaranth: is there a reason not to just 'sudo /etc/init.d/foo restart'?  I'm lazy, so..  :)
[00:26] <incorrect> has anyone else had strange issues with their laptops touchpad having weird problems, like the left mouse button stopping working until you reboot, or you can't alt tab, ?
[00:26] <Amaranth> Gho: I'm lazy and with my way tab completion does most of the work :)
[00:26] <n1ea> Where is a normal sound card found in the /dev folder?  I tried /dev/dsp without success.
[00:26] <Amaranth> Gho: sudo inv<tab> gdm r<tab>
[00:27] <Amaranth> Gho: Well, you have to type a little more
[00:27] <steven_> Does Ubuntu 9.04 know how to take advantage of quad-core technology?
[00:27] <Amaranth> Gho: But it's sort of the preferred way, even though it does the same thing
[00:27] <Amaranth> steven_: yep
[00:27] <evon> Amaranth: bad news
[00:27] <Amaranth> steven_: the system will see all 4 cores and schedule things for them
[00:27] <evon> Amaranth: same thing happened
[00:27] <Amaranth> evon: pastebin the new Xorg.0.log
[00:27] <steven_> Alright. Thank you
[00:28] <Amaranth> evon: Everytime I give you something to do and it fails pastebin the new log :)
[00:28] <byte^> Thanks for the help.
[00:28] <Gho> Amaranth: Back in my day, we didn't havy any of thsese newfangled invoke-rc.d contraptions, and had to get our hands dirty in /etc.. that's just how I grew up :)  Glad I'm not going to break anything by not using invoke-rc.d :)
[00:29] <rastafaryan> hello
[00:29] <Keal> is 'Kindly Kingfisher' the next ubuntu after jaunty jackelope?
[00:29] <Gho> !hi | rastafaryan
[00:29] <Eevee> Keal: karmic koala
[00:29] <rastafaryan> I am on ubuntu 8.04 .. and I can't update it.. its been like a month..
[00:29] <Keal> ok i didn't know whether it was kangroo, koala, or kingfisher
[00:29] <steven_> How do I search for packages and stuff from commandline?
[00:29] <Eevee> steven_: aptitude search x
[00:30] <thiebaude> Keal, the koala
[00:30] <Gho> steven_: apt-cache search foo
[00:30] <thiebaude> :)
[00:31] <evon> Amaranth: well pastebinit is telling me now that i'm trying to send an empty document
[00:31] <Amaranth> evon: hrm
[00:31] <Amaranth> evon: I think at this point you may be better off reinstalling
[00:31] <Amaranth> evon: It'd be faster :P
[00:32] <Keal> ok
[00:32] <evon> Amaranth: lol. thanks for all your help. i hope unetbootin works out for me though
[00:32] <Keal> when is the multiboot issue going to be fixed in ubuntu?
[00:32] <Amaranth> evon: yeah, sorry we couldn't get it working, I'm at a bit of a loss
[00:32] <Keal> i have no idea how to install a multiboot windows after already installing ubuntu
[00:32] <w00tz> hi
[00:32] <Jermz> multiboot?
[00:33] <Gho> Keal: if you're going to dual-boot, always make Windows the first, not the last, OS you install
[00:33] <evon> Amaranth: all this headache just for trying to get nexuiz to run properly
[00:33] <Gho> Windows likes to clobber bootloaders
[00:33] <Keal> windows only is happy with being on the first partition on the drive
[00:33] <Jermz> *nods*
[00:33] <Jermz> ubuntu doesn't care what it runs on
[00:33] <calc> Keal: i've never had a problem with making it random partition on my system, it can't be a logical partition though afaik
[00:34] <Gho> Keal: Not in my experience.. I've had Windows on /dev/hdc3 for a long time, several OSs and PCs ago
[00:34] <Keal> is there a way to change the order of how partitions are physically laid out on the drive?
[00:34] <calc> Keal: but you can have 4 primary partitions
[00:34] <Gho> !info gparted | Keal
[00:34] <Keal> i usually keep a 60gb swap partition for such issues as moving around entire partitions
[00:34] <calc> Keal: gparted can resize but not really reorder (afaik) and is fairly slow
[00:34] <thiebaude> Keal, do you have the live cd?
[00:35] <Keal> people always bug eye when i tell them i always have 60gb reserved for swap
[00:35] <Gho> Keal: .. 60 GB of swap?!
[00:35] <evon> gdfgdfg
[00:35] <Keal> see?
[00:35] <thiebaude> wow
[00:35] <Gho> Keal: whatever melts your butter.. just, wow, is all.
[00:35] <calc> Keal: i just keep a few extra hard drives laying around that i can backup to and repartition :)
[00:35] <Ronnyh> after installing windows just fix grub with live-cd
[00:35] <Keal> i have 60gb of swap so i can do stuff like clone partitions, burn blurays, and defrag 1000x faster
[00:36] <w00tz> i just compiled rt2870sta.ko for my wireless card, i did sudo insmod rt2870sta.ko. lsmod shows it running, but no lights are coming on in the card. i didn't reboot though, is this an issue?
[00:36] <darkjackaho> hi  to all
[00:36] <Gho> Keal: like I said, whatever works for you :)
[00:36] <exco> which packages are responsible for standby?
[00:36] <w00tz> someone please tell me that it's ok to spend 8 hours setting up wireless .. please
[00:36] <darkjackaho> i got a problem with sopcast and ubuntu 9.04
[00:36] <darkjackaho> it wont work...
[00:36] <exco> w00tz: happens ;-)
[00:37] <Gho> w00tz: it's okay to spend eight hours setting up wireless.
[00:37] <kitche> w00tz: not really maybe 3 hours depending on if the odd driver really
[00:37] <thiebaude> if i spent 8hrs i would be back at redmond
[00:37] <w00tz> i know i built this driver correctly
[00:38] <chuck_> w00tz, try to modprobe it
[00:38] <w00tz> ra0       RT2870 Wireless  ESSID:""  Nickname:""
[00:38] <w00tz> !!
[00:38] <w00tz> this is a BIG BIG STEP
[00:38] <w00tz> it dind't show up before if i did iwconfig!
[00:38] <darkjackaho> hey, no one use sopcast on ubuntu 9.04??
[00:38] <w00tz> if it shows up on iwconfig, how can i see it?
[00:38] <w00tz> test it at elast
[00:39] <byte^> Hrmm.
[00:39] <byte^> Is there any way to test if the sound card is actually interfacing with Ubuntu?
[00:41] <nog_lorp> awfully quiet in here :(
[00:41] <cfedde> too quiet.
[00:41] <Gho> byte^: lspci | grep audio
[00:41] <nog_lorp> clearly something sinister is afoot
[00:41] <m3dlg> is there a way to repair my installed ubuntu from the live disk - it doesn't make it to desk toip
[00:41] <thiebaude> somebody say something
[00:41] <nog_lorp> thiebaude: ok
[00:41] <byte^> Well.
[00:41] <Gho> thiebaude: something
[00:41] <byte^> It reads my audio device.
[00:41] <byte^> So...
[00:41] <darkjackaho> sopcast and jaunty??? who use it on??
[00:41] <nog_lorp> so, uname -r reports 2.6.24-19-generic
[00:42] <thiebaude> anything
[00:42] <nog_lorp> meanwhile, apt-get install linux-generic says linux-generic is already the latest version
[00:42] <byte^> "01:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs CA0106 Soundblaster"
[00:42] <byte^> Ahem. Any ideas why I still wouldn't be getting sound?
[00:42] <nog_lorp> and apt-cache show linux-generic says Version: <IP_ADDRESS>.15
[00:42] <nog_lorp> wtf :(
[00:42] <nog_lorp> oh wait
[00:43] <nog_lorp> oh I'm an idiot, need to update grub params
[00:43] <Gho> byte^: okay, good.. now lsmod | grep snd_ and make sure you have snd_emu401k
[00:43] <m3dlg> is there a way to repair my installed ubuntu from the live disk - it doesn't make it to desk toip
[00:43] <Gho> byte^: my bad, snd_emu10k1
[00:43] <byte^> Hmm...
[00:43] <Gho> m3dlg: what happens when you try to boot it?
[00:44] <byte^> I don't see that, how do I obtain it, Gho?
[00:45] <Gho> byte^: modprobe snd_emu10k1
[00:45] <m3dlg> gho: it finished with the word ubunutu and the line gets to the end then it crashes with garbige on the screen with part of it corrupt parts from the loading screen
[00:45] <Gho> byte^: full disclosure: I have an Audigy2, so my chipset may differ from yours
[00:45] <byte^> error'd
[00:45] <byte^> Operation not permitted
[00:45] <m3dlg> gho: i've even deleted and tried to restore the old 'known to be working' xorg.conf
[00:46] <Gho> byte^:  try with sudo
[00:46] <byte^> Yeah I did.
[00:46] <byte^> No errors.
[00:46] <Gho> m3dlg: can you boot into a terminal?
[00:46] <eseven73> what sound app do I need to get the command 'play' to play a wav from a bash script? I installed mplayer, mpg123
[00:46] <exco> any idea on how to fix standby not working?
[00:46] <m3dlg> only with live disk i think - i'll try
[00:46] <byte^> Hmm doesn't seem to be working.
[00:46] <okaygo> Ah, I'm very impressed with the latest version of Ubuntu 9.04
[00:47] <Gho> Oh fie, RL calls.  Later, folks!
[00:47] <nog_lorp> if only the automatic menu.lst update didn't completely ruin my ability to boot every time
[00:47] <nog_lorp> then I wouldn't have to update it by hand :(
[00:47] <xtiancr> hola
[00:48] <m3dlg> well there goes my chance
[00:48] <xtiancr> hi
[00:48] <Cryptic_Donkey>   !es | xtiancr
[00:48] <rastafaryan> I am on ubuntu 8.04 .. and I can't update it.. its been like a month..
[00:48] <byte^> Does anyone else know any reason why a working Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE card would not work on Ubuntu?
[00:48] <JoshJ> My "Add/Remove Applications" thing is broken, though apt-get/aptitude etc all work fine. There a way to fix this? I just recently installed...
[00:49] <[esde]> how do i set default size for new windows "unmaximized"
[00:49] <xtiancr> Rastafaryan, donwload ubuntu 9.04 and reinstall
[00:49] <frubuntu> Hi all
[00:49] <xtiancr> hi
[00:49] <rastafaryan> xtiancr : will I lose any data if I reinstall? I am very new at computers
[00:49] <brodymcd> hi all - I have a dell inspiron 1526 with Broadcom wireless that WAS working fine... 9.04 upgrade later - wireless NOT working - can see networks, RARELY connect, can't get on websites if I do connect. Can someone please help? My research on the net speaks a lot about ipv6, but that's above my head a bit... help?
[00:50] <JoshJ> http://img123.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotaddremoveappl.png  <-- this is the screenshot of what my add/remove program is doing
[00:50] <xtiancr> mmm.... i dont know.... make a backup first...
[00:50] <frubuntu> I installed Ubuntu 9.04 in several flavours now (32 and 64 bit) and my system keeps just freezing right after booting.
[00:50] <[esde]> how do i set default size for new windows "unmaximized". i am on Ubuntu Netbook Remix and all the windows open as maximizes and it pisses me off.
[00:50] <JoshJ> rastafaryan, it depends on your current partitioning setup
[00:50] <thiebaude> !backup
[00:51] <JoshJ> rastafaryan, if you have your current data on a separate partition or disk reinstalling the OS should be no problem. if your data is on the partition with the OS you will lose your data as you have to format in the install process
[00:51] <rastafaryan> ohh
[00:51] <commander_> when are they going to do the 3d graphics for timevault or flyback or back in time?
[00:51] <frubuntu> Processor is an AMD64 AthlonXP.
[00:52] <bc> rastafaryan, xtiancr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades
[00:52] <xtiancr>  rastafaryan, make a partition and in the second, put the /home partition
[00:52] <Keal> frubuntu what is your question?
[00:52] <frubuntu> the strange thing is: I could use the live CD fro hours.
[00:52] <frubuntu> fro = for
[00:52] <frubuntu> so the difference is the HDD
[00:52] <wznyk> hellow
[00:52] <sk-> ...downloading 9.04 ...  Anyone know how to fix this? (apt-get/aptitude works on the command line so it's a problem with the GUI....)
[00:53] <Slasher`> JoshJ; try synaptic package manager?
[00:53] <xtiancr> rastafaryan and BC, update... it take a lot of time
[00:53] <Keal> frubuntu 9.04 doesn't work on very many advanced micro devices athlon64 xp's
[00:54] <Keal> interpreid ibex works on athlon64xp's
[00:54] <frubuntu> It is a Seagate SATA 250 GB. (ST3250620NS).
[00:54] <bc> xtiancr: not really. no more than a 'reinstall' you suggested :)
[00:54] <Keal> hardy heron often does not
[00:54] <Keal> frubuntu try intrebid ibex amd64
[00:54] <yowshi> anyone know how i can get video recoded off my webcam without cheese?
[00:54] <Roasted> When I reboot, Ubuntu 9.04 requires me to put a password in. why?
[00:54] <JoshJ> Slasher`, the problem is that the Synaptic package manager is overkill
[00:54] <Keal> just be warned frubuntu, intrepid ibex amd64 isn't very great in the repository system
[00:55] <bc> rastafaryan: go the upgrade route, don't reinstall
[00:55] <JoshJ> Slasher`, i'd like to see actual applications and not things like filesystems etc like synatpic shows... and honestly i'd rather not have something broken sitting around this soon after i installed it
[00:55] <[esde]> how do i set default size for new windows "unmaximized". i am on Ubuntu Netbook Remix and all the windows open as maximizes and it pisses me off.
[00:55] <Slasher`> JoshJ; ah, yeah i see where you're coming from. sorry though, i dont know how to resolve your problem there :(
[00:55] <Keal> frubuntu lots of linux software doesn't have athlon64xp verions
[00:55] <Keal> versions*
[00:55] <JoshJ> the only non-ubuntu thing i installed was adobe air for twhirl and that didn't work so i uninstalled both twhirl and AIR
[00:56] <Keal> frubuntu i have an athlon64xp
[00:56] <JoshJ> that didn't break add/remove but it broke at some point...
[00:56] <Keal> mine is the compaq presario r4025us
[00:56] <Slasher`> try an apt-get update and see if it works after maybe?
[00:56] <JoshJ> tried that
[00:56] <JoshJ> gnome-app-install, huh... what's the aptitude command line to reinstall a package?
[00:56] <brodymcd>  hi all - I have a dell inspiron 1526 with Broadcom wireless that WAS working fine... 9.04 upgrade later - wireless NOT working - can see networks, RARELY connect, can't get on websites if I do connect. Can someone please help? My research on the net speaks a lot about ipv6, but that's above my head a bit... help?
[00:56] <Slasher`> then i have no idea, sorry
[00:56] <Slasher`> erm
[00:57] <dtchen> JoshJ: aptitude reinstall foo
[00:57] <Keal> frubuntu when it crashes on boot, is it because the gui fails to load?
[00:57] <JoshJ> dtchen, oh, how obvious :P
[00:57] <Slasher`> apt-get --reinstall install
[00:57] <Keal> frubuntu or is it also because the keyboard doesn't take valid input
[00:57] <JoshJ> Slasher`, isn't it generally considered better practice to use aptitude than apt-get?
[00:57] <Roasted> When I reboot, Ubuntu 9.04 requires me to put a password in. why?
[00:57] <JoshJ> Roasted, security
[00:57] <Slasher`> no idea JoshJ, i had to look it up anyway
[00:57] <Roasted> joshj - when you reboot 9.04, it asks you cancel/okay. This is NOT right.
[00:58] <JoshJ> oh
[00:58] <Keal> frubuntu you can't boot off a usb storage device on an athlon64xp
[00:58] <JoshJ> you mean when you press the reboot button, not when it boots back up?
[00:58] <Roasted> joshj - I installed 9.04 on about 6 different computers and mine at home is the only one who does this.
[00:58] <spikes> anyone i am trying to mount my /tmp folder into /tmpfs
[00:58] <JoshJ> Roasted, do you have multiple users logged in perhaps?
[00:58] <Roasted> joshj - I'm logged in right now. If I go and reboot it, I have to put in a password to reboot.
[00:58] <Roasted> joshj - logged in? No.
[00:58] <JoshJ> hm
[00:58] <JoshJ> is this the only one with multiple users, period?
[00:58] <Roasted> joshj - actually yeah
[00:58] <JoshJ> that's probably it
[00:58] <Ljorring> I have a sound issue on my lenovo x61s with an ubuntu 8.04 installation. Does someone have sound experience to help me?
[00:58] <Patrique> hey i know how to code in c++ but I don't know which programs I should use to develop applications for ubuntu and I don't know how to compile them.. where should i start?
[00:59] <Roasted> joshj - I have my work laptop home. I'll try adding a 2nd user and see if that does it too.
[00:59] <commander_> did anyone answered my ?
[00:59] <Keal> athlon64xp's stop power supply via usb 2.0 ports as soon as the kernel loads until the kernel says to resupply power
[00:59] <JoshJ> Roasted, since linux in general has no way of knowing if it's being used from multiple terminals etc
[00:59] <JoshJ> Patrique, you want gcc and g++
[00:59] <Keal> this is a glitch in virtually every boot loader and kernel
[00:59] <Roasted> joshj - still, its a pain in the azz
[00:59] <Patrique> joshj it's some programs?
[00:59] <JoshJ> Roasted, yeah, that's understandable
[00:59] <JoshJ> Patrique, are you used to visual studio or something?
[00:59] <Keal> kernels are supposed to load enough to tell the usb 2.0 ports to continue supplying power immediately before continuing to loaed
[01:00] <JoshJ> Roasted, where have you coded C++ before?
[01:00] <Patrique> joshj i'm used to builder
[01:00] <Keal> i have never seen a kernel that does this properly though
[01:00] <JoshJ> Patrique, load up the ubuntu add/remove programs thing, select programming, and do a search for C++
[01:00] <Keal> i don't think the athlon64xp is even capable of this frubuntu
[01:00] <Patrique> ok thx
[01:00] <AlsaPCM> is it possible to run 3d graphics using win7 as guest in virtualbox ?
[01:00] <erUSUL> Patrique: Anjuta is an ide for c/c++ gnome (default gui in gnome)
[01:01] <JoshJ> Patrique, I personally use emacs and command line for C development :P
[01:01] <Roasted> joshj - c++??
[01:01] <erUSUL> !info anjuta | Patrique
[01:01] <Keal> so you may not be able to boot off a usb drive with your computer frubuntu, even if you recompile the kernel to take into account the glitch i outlined
[01:01] <AlsaPCM> is it possible to run 3d graphics using win7 as guest in virtualbox ?
[01:01] <JoshJ> Patrique, emacs/vim and the command line is the "traditional" way to develop on linux :P
[01:01] <dtchen> spikes: you probably want to drop to single-user (sudo telinit 1) first, then mount -omode=1777 -n -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp
[01:01] <Patrique> Joshj lol ok i don't really need an interface but what would be really nice would be a tutorial on how to compile
[01:02] <AlsaPCM> is it possible to run 3d graphics using win7 as guest in virtualbox ?
[01:02] <[esde]> how do i set default size for new windows "unmaximized". i am on Ubuntu Netbook Remix and all the windows open as maximizes and it pisses me off.
[01:02] <Keal> frubuntu there are several factors working against you with athlon64xp's frubuntu
[01:02] <Patrique> like some hello world tutorial
[01:02] <JoshJ> Patrique, just "sudo aptitude install build-essential" then
[01:02] <erUSUL> Patrique: there are other ides like eclipse + ddt or kdevelop for kde... vdkbuilder
[01:02] <JoshJ> to get the compiler
[01:02] <dtchen> Ljorring: please use: wget -O ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh --no-upload, then pastebin the generated /tmp/alsa-info.txt
[01:02] <Keal> frubuntu one major issue is the athlon64xp actually has drivers for the cpu itself
[01:02] <Patrique> ok
[01:02] <JoshJ> Patrique, generally speaking you would use a Makefile on a big application
[01:02] <Patrique> ok
[01:03] <JoshJ> Patrique, though something like gcc hello.c -o hello && ./hello is the typical command line for C... for C++ it's a bit different, just do "g++ --help"
[01:03] <Ljorring> dtchen: http://pastebin.com/m4f121645
[01:03] <Roasted> joshj - I just added a 2nd user to this work alptop with 9.04. No rpoblem here. Just on my desktop.
[01:04] <JoshJ> Patrique,  hm... g++ --help  indicates that the syntax is the same... "g++ hello.cpp -o hello && ./hello" should work
[01:04] <Patrique> ok thx a lot:)
[01:04] <JoshJ> Roasted, no idea what the problem is, sorry :(
[01:04] <Keal> what is the ubuntu dev channel?
[01:04] <JoshJ> #ubuntu-devel
[01:05] <yowshi> anyone know how i can get video recoded off my webcam without cheese?
[01:05] <Keal> is anyone allowed to go in there?
[01:05] <JoshJ> go there and find out i suppose?
[01:05]  * JoshJ is not an ubuntu dev
[01:05] <helper> hello how i clear temporary files when i do ls look file kad and kad~
[01:06] <JoshJ> helper, you can do rm *~ if you wish to remove all temporary files in the current directory, but be careful not to put a space after the *
[01:06] <helper> JoshJ, okie
[01:07] <Ol> âñåì ïðèâåò
[01:07] <dtchen> Ljorring: you should mute 'IEC958' and raise 'PCM' for starters. Are you using headphones or the internal fixed speakers?
[01:08] <Ljorring> dtchen: I am using both
[01:08] <dtchen> Ljorring: then you need to unmute them
[01:08] <Ljorring> dtchen: I have just muted the 'IEC'
[01:09] <evon> i would like to set up a home network with my 2 linux computers how do i do this?
[01:09] <erUSUL> evon: connect them with cables and a switch or with crossover cable... assing apropiate ip/mask and you are set
[01:10] <evon> erUSUL you're speaking another language to me
[01:10] <JoshJ> evon, do you want one to be a router that has to be on for the other computer to access the network or do you want them to be independent? (Then you need a router)
[01:10] <evon> JoshJ: they are connected wirelessly through my router
[01:10] <JoshJ> evon, then they're already on a home network
[01:11] <evon> JoshJ: just want to be able to share files between the two
[01:11] <JoshJ> evon, you'll need to be more specific in terms of what you want to do
[01:11] <JoshJ> oh
[01:11] <vaul> People, where monkey audio codec have gone? Surprisingly I can play ape, but can't split it with псгу2екфслыю
[01:11] <erUSUL> evon: you need to connect them with network cables either via a crossover cable (to one ethernet card to the other) or via a switch/router
[01:11] <JoshJ> evon, that can be done via SSH
[01:11] <evon> JoshJ: SSH?
[01:11] <vaul> *gcue2tracks.
[01:11] <JoshJ> (well, SSH and SCP) evon, have you ever used SSH before?
[01:11] <JoshJ> !ssh | evon
[01:11] <JoshJ> !scp | evon
[01:12] <vaul> !ape
[01:12] <vaul> !mac
[01:12] <JoshJ> you need openssh-server for whichever computer is doing the sharing (this may be both)
[01:12] <Ljorring> dtchen: how do I unmute them?
[01:12] <evon> JoshJ: can't i send files through nautilus or something?
[01:12] <Codyman> Hey Everyone
[01:12] <JoshJ> hm... you have to do something different to do it that way
[01:12] <evon> JoshJ: a nice and easy gui would be great. I'm not commandline savvy at all
[01:12] <JoshJ> i've never done that... it's something related to file sharing or folder sharing
[01:12] <datechman> whats up linheads
[01:13] <jigp> hello moin :) I am going to install CDLIVE 9.04... im going to replace 8.04 desktop.. how to back-up my chat logs in pidgin (ym,gtalk,irc,msn)?so that I can view my important logs in 9.04..thanks
[01:13] <JoshJ> evon, you'll have to ask someone else sorry :(
[01:13] <dtchen> Ljorring: you can use the mixer applet, alsamixer, amixer, ...
[01:14] <Ljorring> dtchen: I have just found it
[01:14] <Codyman> Hey datechman
[01:14] <datechman> hi
[01:14] <Ronnyh> evon, how about right click on a folder and click 'Sharing options'
[01:14] <vaul> jigp: You should preserve your /home directory from being deleted. Best way probably is to make it a partition.
[01:14] <evon> Ronny: good idea. will try it now
[01:14] <Ljorring> dtchen: I flipped em a few times and tried with headset in/out
[01:15] <Ljorring> dtchen: I think I will reinstall OS from scratch
[01:15] <dtchen> Ljorring: no need to do that
[01:15] <Ljorring> dtchen: It's supposed to work out of the box
[01:15] <frustrateduser> so my wireless card is green, but i can not connect to the internet, what are some troubleshooting tips taht i can run through to make sure it works?
[01:15] <Ronnyh> evon, it worked here :)
[01:15] <Ljorring> dtchen: I had been recommended from others to do that
[01:15] <dtchen> Ljorring: if you have headphones inserted, you need Speakers muted and Headphones unmuted
[01:15] <frustrateduser> any help would be greatly appreciated
[01:15] <dtchen> Ljorring: has audio ever been audible in that install?
[01:16] <yowshi> anyone know how i can get video recoded off my webcam without cheese?
[01:16] <jigp> vaul : I have no partition when I install ubuntu. how to create a partition?  :P
[01:16] <JoshJ> jigp, you have at least one partition now... you can't not have a partition
[01:16] <jigp> vaul : I have no partition when I install ubuntu. how to create a partition? I have 160GB HD
[01:16] <grkblood13> is there a way to erase your hard drive prior to the system booting up?
[01:16] <Ljorring> dtchen: I actually cant remember
[01:16] <Ljorring> dtchen: its an upgrade from 7.10
[01:16] <Ljorring> dtchen: I use Linux with schools
[01:16] <JoshJ> !partition | jigp
[01:17] <jigp> JoshJ : so how to backup the chat logs then? :(
[01:17] <JoshJ> jigp, stick them all in a folder, burn them to DVD
[01:17] <JoshJ> then reinstall, make /home a separate partition this time for your own future sanity
[01:17] <JoshJ> then copy back from dvd to computer
[01:18] <JoshJ> jigp, dvd can be substituted for flash drive, whatever depending on how much space you have
[01:18] <sportman> anyone use the ubuntu MID thing?
[01:18] <carick> yeah /home partition is the smartest thing you can do, followed by /boot
[01:19] <jigp> Joshj : but I didn't see the folder of the pidin in directory under "home/jigp"
[01:19] <JoshJ> jigp, ah, i see
[01:19] <JoshJ> jigp, you want to hit control-H in nautilus
[01:19] <JoshJ> that turns on hidden files
[01:19] <JoshJ> they're in places like .pidgin , .thunderbird, .mozilla, etc
[01:19] <jigp> ok ok JoshJ
[01:20] <dtchen> Ljorring: try this: sudo /sbin/alsa force-unload && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[01:20] <JoshJ> jigp, hidden files (aka "dotfiles") are commonly used for preferences and similar things for the sake of making browsing sane
[01:20] <JoshJ> otherwise your home folder would be terribly cluttered otherwise
[01:20] <Ljorring> dtchen: on it
[01:21] <frustrateduser> i am having trouble running a wireless adapter, i have googled, and i've done all the steps necessary. i rebooted after compiling the kernl, but i still have no internet (event hough the usb adapter has a green light). any ideas on what i can do?
[01:21] <jigp> JoshJ : im in File browser. all I see is bin/var/boot/cdrom etc..no pidgin
[01:21] <JoshJ> jigp, you need to be in /home
[01:21] <frustrateduser> and by kernel, i mean driver..
[01:21] <JoshJ> jigp, /home/jigp for instance
[01:21] <JoshJ> that's where your user stuff is
[01:21] <timtob> hi, how do i add a user to a group, the system->admin->users and group dialog freezes when i press the unlock button, ?
[01:22] <JoshJ> !filesystem | jigp
[01:22] <jigp> JoshJ : okay I am in /home/jigp and when I hit cntrl+h nothing happen
[01:22] <Ljorring> dtchen: hehe, my mixer passed out
[01:22] <Sybilla> I need help for the wireless configuration
[01:22] <JoshJ> jigp, where by "jigp" i mean your actual username on your computer
[01:22] <Ljorring> dtchen: ran the command twice and gained access again
[01:22] <JoshJ> do you see folders like Desktop there?
[01:22] <Ljorring> dtchen: do I need restart?
[01:22] <jigp> JoshJ yeah my actual account
[01:23] <JoshJ> ok
[01:23] <dtchen> Ljorring: no, just adjust your volumes
[01:23] <vaul> People, do anyone know what's up with monkey audio codec? I can't find it neither in the sourceforge, nor in repositiories.
[01:23] <JoshJ> jigp, are you absolutely sure that you're in your home directory and you see things like Desktop and similar folders?
[01:23] <JoshJ> if so that's where all your dotfiles are stored

[01:27] <vaul> jfalvarez: And where did you. Try to search at PostgreSQL website.

[01:29] <JoshJ> jigp, doh
[01:29] <JoshJ> jigp, i assumed you were using nautilus since it's the default ubuntu file browser
[01:29] <J-_> blaise: compiz-fusion is already installed. Just install compizconfig-settings-manager. You'll get a huge amount of plugins and whatever you need to get the cube working however you like.
[01:29] <Ljorring> dtchen: pulseaudio: no process killed
[01:29] <dtchen> Ljorring: oh, just use pulseaudio -D then
[01:30] <JoshJ> jigp, i imagine there's a way for Dolphin to show dotfiles as well
[01:30] <vaul> People, do anyone know where could I find monkey audio codec? It seems to be missing at the sourceforge and in the repositories.

[01:36] <yowshi> anyone know how i can get video recoded off my webcam without cheese?
[01:37] <frustrateduser> NODHCPOFFERS received
[01:37] <frustrateduser> this is what is being printed in my /var/log/syslog
[01:37] <J-_> yowshi: I'm sure you could probably use VLC to capture with your webcam.
[01:38] <CaT_MaNZz> no no.. it was simple exe. I started it and it configurate MBR
[01:38] <J-_> yowshi: Don't talke me up on that though. Not sure how to do it.
[01:38] <J-_> s/talke/take/
[01:38] <electroweak> how can I disable auto-login from console
[01:39] <yowshi> J-_: i cant figure out how to get vlc to do it though
[01:39] <pdfedit> Does anyone know if Acrobat Pro runs on Linux (directly or in wine) ?
[01:40] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: It's unetbootin. You download it, run it, reboot system and voila, your grub is working again. I've tried it, it is the simpliest way.
[01:41] <J-_> yowshi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[01:42] <CooPs89> hi, I got trouble with my WLAN, it's a 108 mbit pci adapter that worked great in windows connected to my n/g/b draft router, in ubuntu 9.02 I got horrible slow speeds though (2.5 -> 3 mbit/s)
[01:42] <yowshi> J-_: rhis hasnt been mof any help
[01:42] <CooPs89> here's some generic info: http://pastebin.com/d54a3feb4
[01:42] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: And googling where to get it isn't difficult at all, for example this: http://unetbootin.wiki.sourceforge.net/ .
[01:43] <CooPs89> my network card is at line 41
[01:43] <CooPs89> it's a netgear card but I think it's a Atheros chipset...
[01:44] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: That one isn't loading, so try this: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/unetbootin-windows-latest.exe .
[01:44] <clusty> hey
[01:44] <yowshi> J-_: because jhusing that page as i did just nowq always crashes and takes my webcam with it and now i have to reboot
[01:44] <CooPs89> sudo iwconfig wlan1 rate 54M makes my connection go down and not work
[01:44] <CooPs89> until i set it back to 2M
[01:44] <CooPs89> any ideas?
[01:44] <clusty> i was curious if there is a reason to use the non generic precompiled kernel (is there some specific one for intel)?
[01:45] <phaer> is it possible to keep to home directories completly synced?
[01:45] <phaer> or at least all documents and evolution data?
[01:45] <evon> Ronnyh: still didn't work. i cant see the other computer when i click on network
[01:46] <evon> Ronnyh: the folders are shared and the software was installed automatically
[01:46] <Ronnyh> did you restart like it said?
[01:46] <Ronnyh> evon, restart samba
[01:47] <burntresistor> i just got amsn and some of the people on my list have a  red x next to there name and it says im no logner on there list is that a bug?
[01:47] <CaT_MaNZz> vaul: ty but this is not what im searching for
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> burntresistor: well, ask them..
[01:48] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: Ohh, how curious. And what you are searching for? Not for a way to restore MBR or GRUB?
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> burntresistor: i don't seem to have that issue w/ Pidgin (i have like 5 msn contacts)
[01:48] <CaT_MaNZz> i had a ubuntu grub, but i had installed another system on my laptop and that system only can see windows (not ubuntu)
[01:49] <burntresistor> if i am blocked they wouldnt get a message so isnt it mute to ask them and it did happen
[01:49] <syntax\> how can i open .doc files as ease as if i open it on word?
[01:49] <EdgEy> doesnt mean blocked could just be deleted
[01:49] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: And this system is windows?
[01:49] <burntresistor> yeah i usually use pidgin
[01:49] <will_> quick question: what's the best way to disable automatic startup for xchat on xubuntu?
[01:50] <burntresistor> but pidgin wont do video
[01:50] <IndyGunFreak> burntresistor: true..
[01:50] <Bigshot_> how can i get rid of this uncaught exception windows?
[01:50] <Bigshot_> it's stuck on my desktop
[01:50] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: Sorry, understand you wrong way, wait a sec.
[01:50] <CaT_MaNZz> vaul the sistem which f*cked up my grub is  OS x
[01:50] <CaT_MaNZz> :)
[01:51] <evon> Ronnyh: i've restarted samba on both computers but when i click on network all i see is "Windows Network"
[01:51] <CaT_MaNZz> but now .. the boot manager of osx sees only windows partition
[01:51] <Ronnyh> evon, and you cant open it?
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> CaT_MaNZz: i dont think grub can see OSX.. but i'm not sure.. you could try using the Ubuntu live CD to reinstall grub.
[01:51] <evon> Ronnyh: nope can't open it
[01:52] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: You was so afraid to say that? I think you just need to replace OS X loader by GRUB. As far as I know GRUB is capable of loading probably any system/
[01:52] <CooPs89> The connection information says my "ath5k_pci" driver has "2 Mb/s" and the speed is horribly slow, even though it's a 54 Mbit capable card and router, it worked outside ubuntu, help me please...
[01:52] <yowshi> can anyone help me record from my webcam without breraking my systam please
[01:52] <Ronnyh> evon, strange, i did same as on that link i sent and it worked.
[01:53] <Ronnyh> did it yesterday
[01:53] <Dr_Willis> evon:  i often have to enter the 'full path' to the remotemachine/shares to get them seen the first time.
[01:53] <jake> CooPs89 your network is to slow
[01:54] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: Google is simple, google is fun. Try this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t3622.html .
[01:54] <CooPs89> it's not my network
[01:54] <evon> Dr_Willis: I have no idea how to do that
[01:54] <jake> your pci card coops89
[01:54] <CooPs89> i have an usb dongle that i tested the same time, and it got up to 54 mbit per second
[01:54] <Ronnyh> aaa yes, smth like    smb://computername/foldername
[01:54] <vaul> CaT_MaNZz: Did you caugt it?
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> evon:  in the 'address bar' enter a path like --> smb://black/public1/
[01:55] <syntax\> guys, a workstation running on ubuntu 8.10, wont boot normally anymore.. if i was to boot it, it gives me a (initramfs) terminal.

[01:55] <jigp> hello guys how can I get rid of this " DCOP communications error There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE. The message returned by the system was: Could not open network socket Please check that the dcopserver program is running" ? I am using gnome 8.04.. but if I go back to KDE, I cannot access my home folder account.so I stick now to gnome and I can see the folders. but this wizard bar is annoying always pop up...how to get
[01:56] <evon> Dr_Willis: well it's kinda working now. when i try to enter the directory it's asking me for  a password. But i never set a password on either computer for the network
[01:56] <jake> you must reconfigure it syntax
[01:56] <vaul> jigp: I think that first step is using pastebin.
[01:56] <k> olá
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> evon:  no idea on that. if its a Linux box you are connecting to. use 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' to set a samba password for that user.
[01:56] <NoOneImportant> is it the work of a third party repository, or is there really a kernel update to 2.6.29?
[01:56] <Guest29736> alguem  fala  portugues?
[01:56] <mmcji> howdee
[01:57] <mmcji> is there a command I can run that will tell me the last applications that were installed?
[01:57] <unop> NoOneImportant, you can look at the source of that update.   apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.29
[01:58] <frustrateduser> well, i'm going back to windows
[01:58] <NoOneImportant> ok, it's from http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid/main Packages

[02:00] <RAdams> Hi. Shortcuts using my Super ("Windows") key are no longer working. The system allows they key to be used as a shortcut, but if it's as if something is trapping it. Any ideas?

[02:01] <Nrbelex> Hi, I've got a blank HD and I want to dual boot Win7 & Ubuntu. What's the order I have to install them in?
[02:01] <Dante123> Should I try to reinstall and use some kind of force command (heard something about that before)?
[02:01] <frustrateduser> buntunub: i would love to help, but again, would probably be on a laptop that I don't need. I was considering serious devleopment for some projects on a linux distro but after 9 hours of wasting time trying to setup internet, I think I'm just going to give up

[02:01] <RAdams> Nrbelex: windows, then ubuntu
[02:01] <Dante123> Nrbelex from my experience, always do windows first, then ubuntu afterwards
[02:01] <unop> Dante123, install the libqt3-mt package
[02:02] <Nrbelex> RAdams, Dantel123 - great, thanks
[02:02] <evon> ok thanks it worked
[02:02] <Dante123> unop is there a 64 versus 32 bit problem here or just a missing package?

[02:02] <RAdams> Dante123: what unop said. you don't seem to have that package.
[02:03] <Wavesonics> I JUST DELETED A VERY IMPORTAINT FODLER ON MY SERVER!!!! How do i recover it!!!!!

[02:06] <vahnx> anyone know how to unmount a drive from the desktop that was manually mounted by command line, just by right clicking and unmounting?
[02:06] <atrius> vahnx: did you mount it as root?
[02:06] <vahnx> yeah from command line
[02:06] <atrius> vahnx: or using sudo
[02:06] <smoking> RAdams: is there a workaround at the moment?
[02:06] <unop> vahnx, manually dismount it at the command line ..
[02:06] <vahnx> either way
[02:06] <atrius> vahnx: then if you're not logged into X as root.. then no
[02:07] <RAdams> smoking: try downgrading to flash 9, but no promises
[02:07] <vahnx> yeah i know, but there should be a way to like gksudo when u right click unmount
[02:07] <atrius> vahnx: logically that makes sense.. i imagine simply no ones added that
[02:07] <CooPs89> firefox can't connect when i used ipconfig wlan1 down to test my connected wlan0 interface...
[02:07] <mmcji> unop: great, thanks
[02:07] <vahnx> ah i see. well thanks. =D
[02:08] <unop> vahnx,  well, you could have mounted the volume using the GUI - in which case you wouldn't need a superuser to intervene
[02:08] <smoking> anyone tried to use flash 9 in 9.04 and had a performence gain ?
[02:08] <CooPs89> how do I make firefox use the wlan0 interface?
[02:08] <vahnx> it was an unclean shutdown so i had to manually mount it with a force
[02:08] <atrius> so... any Mac people around at the moment? i'm needing the output of a particular command from a Leopard machine
[02:08] <toor_> what is the command in terminal for installing packages?
[02:08] <vahnx> apt-get
[02:08] <unop> toor_, apt-get install package

[02:11] <Dante123> i'm having lots of freezing up under newly installed 9.04 64 bit version....anyone else having this trouble?  Making me want to go back to 32 bit unless this is due to some other problem.  Was just in pidgin and then opening synaptic and everything freezes.  CTRL ALT Backspace did nothing even though I installed dontzap and then ran a command to renable it.
[02:11] <dtchen> Cloacker: you're missing <cstring>
[02:11] <atrius> unop: for some reason.. them having a channel on here didn't occur to me.. ;)
[02:11] <carick> is there a ``command'' in vim to comment a line (or multiple lines)
[02:11] <Dante123> Anyone else experience freezing with 9.04 or with 64 bit version of Ubuntu?

[02:13] <unop> carick,  depends on the language you are coding or what that language defines as a comment ..  usually something like  s/^/#/  does
[02:13] <Dante123> btw, with my earlier problem with missing libqt3-mt....I do have it installed.  COuld this be a 32 bit versus 64 bit thing?
[02:14] <Cloacker> dtchen: was has changed from 4.2.3 to 4.3.3?
[02:14] <syntax\> http://pastebin.com/d3a11330d -- ubuntu failed to boot normally, could any one help me out? i copied what is said before it launched ash shell..
[02:14] <RAdams> vaul: interesting. changing lock desktop from ctrl alt L to super L completely ruined use of the super key. Thanks for the pointing, it's fine now!
[02:14] <carick>  unop: i know it depends on the language, and i also know vim can determine that because one of the fold options is to put {{{ in a comment at the beginning of the fold and }}} at the end of it
[02:15] <ravager> hello
[02:15] <vaul> ravager: What have you broken?
[02:15] <carick> !hello | ravager
[02:15] <syntax\> the system lost /sbin/init.. could anyone help me out? could i still recover this system
[02:15] <ravager> lol, nothing yet
[02:15] <Kevin`> what kernel can I use for xen dom0 in ubuntu 9.04
[02:16] <vaul> ravager: It's really good ;-)
[02:16] <brodymcd> I'm having trouble with my wireless since my upgrade to 9.04.... can see wireless connections, but can't connect to my home connection... RARELY it works, but even when it does, cannot access any webpages - I have a dell inspiron 1526 with a broadcom card. Things worked pretty well in 8.10
[02:16] <syntax\> vaul: could you check this out? http://pastebin.com/d3a11330d maybe you could help me out..
[02:17] <jaffa__> :)
[02:17] <RB2> Is there a way to list packages w/ apt-get?
[02:17] <ravager> i installed all the updates the system wanted and then upgraded to 9.04...only to find my sound was no longer working.
[02:17] <jaypur> people, my laptop is rejecting "copies" of ubuntu, just acept the original one from canonical
[02:17] <vaul> syntax\: What happened?
[02:18] <syntax\> have you seen what's on pastebin?
[02:18] <puff> visudo doesn't seem to be respecting either VISUAL or EDITOR.  How do I get visudo to use emacs?
[02:19] <functionofxy> I seem to be in a (rare) dependency hell. anyone good w/ dpkg/apt?
[02:19] <ravager> After trying to figure out what went wrong, I gave up and did a fresh install of 8.10
[02:19] <deww> anyone know of a quick and dirty way to change the default xterm size in xubuntu's default terminal app? ubuntu / gnometerm "honors" /usr/share/vte/termcap/xterm
[02:19] <ravager> Should i install all the system updates and not upgrade?
[02:19] <Cloacker> Why did my code compile without <cstring> before?
[02:19] <syntax\> vaul: have you checked the pastebin link? (http://pastebin.com/d3a11330d) well when i started the said machine, it just went like that. i have no idea what triggered it to boot on initramfs.. and as reading those lines, im guessing my harddrive failed or crashed?
[02:20] <beg2h8ubuntu> Hi I have no sound at all on my comp with ubuntu and I know nothing about linux can soume one help me please?
[02:20] <ravager> i had the same problem beg2h8ubuntu
[02:20] <vaul> syntax\: Ggg. It is sying that you do not have init.rd directory. Maybe some issues with grub, which make it load wrong partition?
[02:21] <Cloacker> Ok, i fixed it now, but get a new error: error: 'atoi' was not declared in this scope
[02:21] <yowshi> can anyone help me record from my webcam without breaking my system please
[02:21] <beg2h8ubuntu> ravager - ok. So how do I fix it? lol
[02:21] <vaul> syntax\: I think that you should check you grub configuration.
[02:22] <ravager> well, i gave up and did a fresh install of 8.10, lol. I'm sure there's a better way though
[02:22] <syntax\> hold on

[02:26] <beg2h8ubuntu> I think so lol
[02:26] <ravager> i think i just wont install that pulse audio stuff
[02:26] <Ljorring> beg2h8ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
[02:27] <vaul> By the way, people, do grub 2 support graphic boot out of the box?
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> ravager:  i think im the only person in the world that never seems to have pulse audio issues...  i must be special
[02:27] <vaul> Dr_Willis: No, me too.

[02:27] <ravager> you must be. I don't know if thats the problem for sure, but I know that once it appeared on my system, no more sound.

[02:28] <ravager> i think i'll stick with 8.10 until i hear something about a fix or whatever
[02:29] <jaypur> i think im the onlu one with that problem
[02:29] <ravager> and update everything except that pulseaudio stuff.
[02:29] <beg2h8ubuntu> failed to find original dlopen loader operation not permitted
[02:29] <Ljorring> beg2h8ubuntu: try sudo killall pulseaudio; start pulseaudio-x11 again
[02:30] <vaul> syntax\: Check your /boot/grub.lst on the /dev/sda, or how main drive is called on your system.
[02:30] <pik}> jaypur: lol never heard of. find anything at google?
[02:30] <Ljorring> beg2h8ubuntu: without 'again'
[02:30] <kitche> D3RGPS31: as in don't use the -o ro option for mount or go -o rw
[02:30] <jaypur> pik}, i think im the first person in the world with that kind of problem
[02:30] <D3RGPS31> kitche: i mount it was rw, but it stays as ro
[02:30] <pik}> haha probably
[02:30] <jaypur> pik}, just accept original copies
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> jaypur:  check the md5sum of the compies? how did you copy them? ive seen some old machines not like cd+r but did on with cd-r (and visa versa)
[02:31] <jaypur> pik}, so if you record an ubuntu image, it doesnt work, neither usb startup....
[02:31] <ashbringer> Is there a way to have both an auto-mounted, encrypted $HOME and an auto-mounted, encrypted ~/Private?
[02:31] <syntax\> vaul: im trying to boot it on a live cd..
[02:31] <holzmodem> is there a way to move the addressfield of nautilus right of the icons? (code patch?)
[02:31] <th0r> ashbringer, check encfs I think it is called
[02:31] <jaypur> Dr_Disk, my laptop didn't accept a cd-rw and a cd-r, but accept the original one from canonical...
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> ashbringer:  you could make .bashrc or .bash_profile mount the encrypted thing I guess.
[02:31] <syntax\> vaul: im not comfy with the initramfs terminal
[02:31] <pik}> jaypur: hm, weird. have you checked the md5sum as Dr_Willis suggested?
[02:31] <vaul> syntax\: Right idea, it would be easier this way.
[02:32] <pik}> on the iso file
[02:32] <ashbringer> th0r: encfs is user-space, so it's way inferior to ecryptfs
[02:32] <ashbringer> Dr_Willis: then I'd have to have my password in cleartext.
[02:32] <vaul> syntax\: I thought you're already using livdCD. Weechat?
[02:32] <jaypur> pik}, no
[02:32] <syntax\> vaul: i could also doit remotely. lol im moving from one pc to another to talk to you..

[02:34] <kaddi_>  if i wanted to use the registry-tools package from samba would i have to install something else, or only that package? how do i launch their registry editor?
[02:34] <ithink> hi
[02:34] <puff> By the way, in case anybody else is curious, the trick to using emacs (or really any use of the EDITOR or VISUAL env variable) with visudo is to set EDITOR in the actual sudo command, so the env variable is set on the process that sudo starts.
[02:34] <beg2h8ubuntu> ?
[02:34] <puff> E.g. $ sudo EDITOR=emacs visudo
[02:34] <ithink> is any LAMP master here ?
[02:34] <puff> ithink: What's a LAMP master?
[02:34] <vaul> frustrateduser: It really is. Just install "ubuntu-desktop" metapackage, most packages are similar i both versions.
[02:34] <sparr> Where do you install games/apps/etc under ~?  Is there some sort of standard for that?  I took an idea from an installer I ran across a long time ago and use a hierarchy of subfolders under ~/.local including bin/ and lib/ and opt/games/
[02:34] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: your question doesn't make any sense...want to try again?
[02:34] <puff> ithink: I've been doing web programming since 1994, maybe I can help.
[02:34] <ithink> a guy who understants LAMP config
[02:35] <puff> ithink: Well, ask your question and I'll give it a shot.
[02:35] <pik}> jaypur: really weird problem :O

[02:36] <eseven73> is there something better than audacity? Im getting errors trying to open simple .wav files
[02:36] <mikechelen> eseven73, tried vlc?
[02:36] <Jeruvy> eseven73: you talk of blasphemy :)
[02:36] <jaypur> pik}, im looking foward to receive the 9.04 "original" cd
[02:36] <kaddi_> aptitude proposes a package called "registry-tools" to edit the windows registry. I want to use that tool, but don't have any other samba component installed. basically i want to be able to take a look at the registry of my dualboot windows system when i feel like it.
[02:36] <pik}> jaypur: yeah..i dont know...but maybe you got some weird setting in your bios?
[02:36] <eseven73> mikechelen, no I need to edit .wav files
[02:36] <eseven73> not play them
[02:36] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: try ##windows
[02:36] <ashbringer> Is there a way to have both an auto-mounted, encrypted $HOME and an auto-mounted, encrypted ~/Private?
[02:36] <vaul> syntax\: Are you still here?
[02:37] <jaypur> pik}, maybe, when i called hp, they said i need a sata driver to boot... but at the "original" cd i could do everything...
[02:37] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: I would not trust any linux app with the windows registry period.
[02:37] <jaypur> pik}, the problem is, accept original, do not on copies... got it?
[02:37] <jaypur> pik}, very weird
[02:37] <syntax\> yes
[02:37] <ithink> puff meet me in private
[02:37] <syntax\> @ vaul sorry
[02:37] <syntax\> it booted already on livecd
[02:38] <kaddi_> Jeruvy ok, I'll have a look for myself then
[02:38] <vaul> syntax\: It's nothing to excuse about. I have proposition.
[02:38] <mikechelen> eseven73, hmm there must be something wrong with the config, audacity usually works ok
[02:38] <pik}> jaypur: yeah.. maybe it is some kind of burning settings that your laptop doesent support
[02:38] <kaddi_> jeruvy thanks anyways
[02:38] <frustrateduser_> vaul: i'm running tha tcommand now, how do i switch betwen desktops? is it an option @ boottime?
[02:38] <eseven73> mikechelen, yea I know, I never had probs with it before
[02:38] <syntax\> vaul: what is it sir
[02:38] <steven_> How do I fix the GRUB menu? I installed Win 7 over my Win Vista partition, but now GRUB doesn't start. I know that my ubuntu partition is still there.
[02:38] <jaypur> pik}, yeah, that could be a problem, but i've created a start up usb, and it didnt work....
[02:39] <Selva> no one has anything for me???
[02:39] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: don't thank me for sane advice... :)
[02:39] <syntax\> vaul: i already have terminal access
[02:39] <jaypur> pik}, but what you said is not so wrong...
[02:39] <ithink> can someone please help me configure my lamp server ?
[02:39] <Jeruvy> !ask | ithink
[02:39] <beg2h8ubuntu> dont feel bad I feel the same way
[02:39] <syntax\> guess not.
[02:39] <pik}> jaypur: try burning with k3b and use standard settings
[02:39] <syntax\> can i enable ssh on livecd?
[02:39] <mikechelen> eseven73, what error is showing? does this happen with all .wav files
[02:39] <pik}> you also got md5-check there
[02:39] <eseven73> yea
[02:39] <vaul> syntax\: OK.   Most drives can read CDs that they burned themselves! :)
[02:39] <ithink> how can i configure mysql server to accept connections from the network ?
[02:39] <Jeruvy> eseven73: you sure it's not a disk (storage) issue?
[02:40] <RxDx> doesnt linux skype support webcam yet?
[02:40] <Sebboh> syntax\, sure, sudo apt-get install ssh
[02:40] <Jeruvy> ithink: ask in #mysql about 'bind-address'
[02:40] <syntax\> vaul: hold on a sec
[02:40] <eseven73> mikechelen, "Audacity had to make a guess at the type of file the Audio may be bogus" tells me to rename the file but Its a good name
[02:40] <jaypur> pik}, Sebboh, nice, it reads the cd but it doest go further....
[02:40] <ithink> ty
[02:40] <pik}> Sebboh: yes your right
[02:40] <kaddi_> jeruvy there are quite a lot widely used linux-based registry editors out there. Have been for a lot of years as well. I'm just to stupid to get them from a bootable-iso onto my system, which is why I'm looking for something that doesn't need to be extracted
[02:40] <vaul> syntax\: Why can't you just replace you get crazed grub with unetbootin?
[02:40] <eseven73> Jeruvy, 25 gigs left, not  a storage issue that I know of
[02:40] <mikechelen> eseven73, does it still work okay with that warning?
[02:41] <eseven73> no
[02:41] <pik}> jaypur: can you burn a new cd from the laptop in ubuntu?
[02:41] <pik}> using k3b
[02:41] <jaypur> pik}, yeah i can do that
[02:41] <beg2h8ubuntu> Anyone else know about sound config?
[02:41] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: I wouldn't use a windows app to adjust gnome or xorg stuff, I wouldn't ask ubuntu about windows registry editors...its a fools game IMHO
[02:41] <jaypur> pik}, i'll just wait the upgrade to 9.04
[02:41] <eseven73> mikechelen, I think the output sound settings need configuring in audacity, one sec
[02:41] <mikechelen> eseven73, filename should not matter, does it happen with all .wav? file might be corrupt
[02:41] <Sebboh> jaypur, pik}, hm, also, if you're getting a read error when using the CD..  Have you checked for bad ram?  There's a memory test feature built into the liveCD, from the main boot menu.
[02:41] <jaypur> pik}, the boot from usb didnt work....
[02:42] <syntax\> vaul: what do you mean
[02:42] <mikechelen> eseven73, audio device config is often the cause
[02:42] <Selva> as with my question, i just got a new message box pop up, "DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" errrr?????
[02:42] <jaypur> Sebboh, no, it just keep _ bliking...
[02:42] <eseven73> no file not courrup they play in other players
[02:42] <jaypur> Sebboh, the installer of ubuntu doesnt go on when i boot in
[02:42] <pik}> jaypur: i've never boot from usb so i dont know
[02:42] <Sebboh> jaypur, I see, gotcha.
[02:42] <Jeruvy> beg2h8ubuntu: have you looked atthe great sound thread on ubuntuforums.org?
[02:42] <quiksilver> can anyone help me identify what kind of dvds my dvd burner is compatible with?
[02:42] <beg2h8ubuntu> yes I have and I still cant get it working
[02:42] <quiksilver> i keep inserting a blank dvd and it doesnt recognize it
[02:42] <jaypur> Sebboh, its like, it accepts "original" cd, and not copies, got it?
[02:42] <beg2h8ubuntu> thats why I am here
[02:43] <kaddi_> jeruvy imho there is not much difference between an ubuntu application handling the windwos registry and ubuntu reading and writing on ntfs. but still, I get your point :)
[02:43] <jaypur> pik}, but i'll burn one... and see what happens
[02:43] <Cloacker> Now my code compiles again. Thanks for all.
[02:43] <pik}> jaypur: yeah do that
[02:43] <eseven73> mikechelen, yea it was just not configred :D
[02:43] <eseven73> configured*
[02:43] <Sebboh> jaypur, yes, I've seen that happen on older CDROM drives (and old floppy drives).
[02:43] <mrwes> quiksilver, DVD-R or DVD+R
[02:43] <FunPhantom> jaypur does the installer load? and then the options start reading the cd and then stop and do nothing?
[02:43] <Jeruvy> beg2h8ubuntu: ok, the alsa pointer is a very good one, thought I'd ask.
[02:43] <pik}> maybe it will work if your lucky :)
[02:43] <jaypur> Sebboh, just a _ blinking?
[02:43] <mpontillo> Selva: there is a thread here with a suggestion to debug the problem: http://forum.ntfs-3g.org/viewtopic.php?p=2595&sid=c298826acf8a60d238b4b51f7aef582d -- looks like running a "checkdisk" from Windows fixed the problem. can you pastebin the output of: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log*
[02:43] <quiksilver> DVD-R
[02:43] <quiksilver> mrwes: i cant understand why it doesnt recognize anything in the drive
[02:44] <jaypur> FunPhantom, when it had vista yes, but now that i have only linux, it boots and go _ blinking...
[02:44] <pdfedit> How can I annotate PDF files under Linux?
[02:44] <Jeruvy> kaddi_: ubuntu doesn't know a dword from a binary..
[02:44] <vaul> syntax\: I mean this: http://launchpad.net/unetbootin . It could be used to restore MBR's. I personally think it is the fastest way.
[02:44] <Sebboh> jaypur, no, I mean read errors.. it has to do with misaligned parts inside the cd drive..
[02:44] <mrwes> quiksilver, yah...my HP Pavillion can only read DVD-R, and write to DVD+R
[02:44] <Sebboh> jaypur, and failure to boot could be a read error that happens very early on. *shrug*
[02:44] <vaul> syntax\: Boot to live cd, install this and reboot to drive.
[02:44] <FunPhantom> [jaypur]: hmmm i have this problems with a winxp installed :(
[02:44] <Sebboh> Gotta run, see you all.
[02:44] <jaypur> Sebboh, hm... like, boot and then *shrug*
[02:44] <quiksilver> mrwes: this doesnt even read the dvd-r
[02:44] <mrwes> quiksilver, common for older drives -- is this an older computer?
[02:45] <vaul> syntax\: You should be promted to fix MBR.
[02:45] <Selva> mpontillo: errrrr??? in windows language??? still havn't quite figured the ins let alone the outs of ubuntu yet
[02:45] <quiksilver> mrwes:  yeah its from like 03  - 04
[02:45] <My_nick_name_is_> good night for all
[02:45] <vaul> syntax\: It helped me personally, when offtopic system erased my MBR.
[02:45] <mrwes> quiksilver, after it tries to read the drive, check dmesg | tail from the terminal and see if there are any error messages
[02:45] <vaul> syntax\: I think it could be useful to you too.
[02:45] <mikechelen> eseven73, yay, good to hear :)
[02:46] <mpontillo> Selva: I don't have a Windows system running at this moment, but I believe if you right-click the drive and choose something like "properties" there is a "tools" menu with an option to check the drive for errors. I'd do that, and then see if you can see the drive from Linux again
[02:46] <vaul> syntax\: What about it?
[02:46] <gtupa> anyone know alsa really well
[02:46] <beg2h8ubuntu> haha no :(
[02:46] <syntax\> vaul: how do i install that sir?
[02:47] <mikechelen> pdfedit, check out pdfedit and jarnal
[02:47] <quiksilver> mrwes: there doesnt appear to me, it just sucks because i need to burn some software on dvd and no burning software recognizes anything in the drive
[02:47] <Selva> oh yeah i understood that part, that's no problem... just gotta install windows :(... but the rest of what you said can you pastebin the output of: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log* im guessing is "like" a windows memory dump? but ummm, yeah, very new to linux
[02:48] <mrwes> quiksilver, did you burn DVD-R in Windows at some point with this computer?
[02:48] <Slasher`> well now 2 pints has finished again, thats it, nothing decent on tv anymore
[02:48] <quiksilver> mrwes: windows had the same issue
[02:48] <Slasher`> oops, wrong channel, ignore that, sorry peeps
[02:48] <quiksilver> mrwes: however, on the drive it explicitly says DVD-R
[02:48] <quiksilver> mrwes: could it be the brand of cd? its sony 16x
[02:48] <pik}> jaypur: i was thinking. you got any other OS that you burned by yourself?
[02:48] <mpontillo> Selva: oh, check the topic - there is a "pastebin" you can use to avoid cluttering the channel with log output. you just run that command (from a terminal window) and copy/paste the output. or run "sudo aptitude install pastebinit" and then run: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log* | pastebinit
[02:49] <mikechelen> pdfedit, or xournal
[02:49] <pik}> jaypur:  try to boot with those if you have any
[02:49] <mpontillo> !terminal | Selva
[02:49] <gh0st3r> whats the easiest way to open a 7z file?
[02:49] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: that can sometimes be a media issue... it can also be a hardware issue.  there are two lasers in DVD readers and burners, one for DVD and one for CD.  if the DVD laser fails, you can get that symptom.
[02:49] <yowshi> can anyone help me record from my webcam without breaking my system please
[02:51] <quiksilver> PhotoJim:  yeah im really at a loss
[02:51] <Jeruvy> gh0st3r: 7zip...
[02:51] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: try different media first.  also, if the laser theory is right it can be verified by trying to read a DVD also.  the same laser reads.
[02:51] <pik}> yowshi: checkout http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#Graphics_and_Video_Applications
[02:51] <jaypur> pik}, i have one from M$, but i think its an error from recording... as like you told me
[02:51] <Jeruvy> !7zip
[02:51] <omacPlace2> ocropus page data/testimages/simple.png FATAL: /usr/local/share/ocropus/models/default.fst: cannot open file for reading
[02:52] <quiksilver> PhotoJim:  can i try an actual dvd, like a movie?
[02:52] <pik}> jaypur: yeah thats the one making most sense for me
[02:52] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: indeed you can.
[02:52] <jaypur> pik}, because in my older computer all copies work, and they were recorded at it... so... makes really sense what you told me....
[02:52] <quiksilver> PhotoJim: if it reads, its certainly a media issue
[02:53] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: well, not necessarily "certainly", but much more probable.
[02:53] <Luigi> Ok, I'm on 8.04 and want to install all the recommended packages that haven't been downloading. I marked it to do that with all new packages in Synaptic, but want to retroactively apply it to all of the packages currently on my system. How can I do this?
[02:53] <pik}> jaypur: lets hope it is so easy. i've never failed a burning with k3b :)
[02:53] <jaypur> pik}, yeah, lets see that... but anyway, it makes really sense, and ill receive my copy soon...
[02:53] <hotboy251> is it ok if i ask a noob question about ubuntu on a ps3
[02:54] <yowshi> pik}: i think kino doesnt capture from usb webcams
[02:54] <yowshi> pik}: and i have yetbnto get cinlerella to work
[02:55] <Slasher`> yowshi; try cheese?
[02:55] <jaypur> pik}, the weird thing is that the start-up usb didnt work
[02:55] <quiksilver> PhotoJim: it works alright, dvds that is
[02:55] <Jeruvy> yowshi: try cheese :)
[02:55] <Selva> mpontillo: i have run the command, did you want the output file or a copy of a section?
[02:55] <jafo409> hello everybody! i have this weird problem.. the alt key self activates when typing in office apps.. im not sure how to manage to stay awake all night typing because of this, thanks
[02:55] <Slasher`> Jeruvy; snap
[02:55] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: media's your most likely cause then.  have access to other blank DVD media?
[02:56] <quiksilver> PhotoJim: now im afraid to waste more money on dvds that might not work though, dont i have to get lucky with the brand?
[02:56] <pik}> jaypur: yeah that's what bother me. if that wouldent happend, i'll be sure on that the problem came from burning failure
[02:56] <jaypur> pik}, the good thing is i have eliminated vista from my lap, even the vista stick
[02:56] <pik}> good job!
[02:56] <pik}> :)
[02:56] <jaypur> pik}, its like free from m$
[02:56] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: well some DVDs are better than others but Verbatims are always good, and if you can find them (usually ahve to mail order) Taiyo Yudens are really good too
[02:56] <mrwes> quiksilver, from a terminal type sudo lshw -C disk
[02:56] <yowshi> Slasher`: Jeruvy everyone says try cheese btu cheese alwaysd crashes especially when i try to record with it. and then i have tpo reboot before i can use my webcam again
[02:56] <pik}> jaypur: i got totally free like 6 moths ago
[02:56] <jaypur> pik}, the only thing here is the mouse...
[02:56] <pik}> never been better
[02:57] <yowshi> so cheese doesnt work
[02:57] <pik}> haha i also got MS mouse
[02:57] <pik}> 3.0
[02:57] <Slasher`> :(
[02:57] <quiksilver> mrwes: what am i looking for
[02:57] <jaypur> pik}, and it has a xp in my old pc because i need to run some softwares that people ask for
[02:57] <mrwes> quiksilver, something like this:        product: DVD+-RW ND-6500A
[02:57] <quiksilver>  DVD+RW DV-W58E
[02:58] <mrwes> quiksilver, there ya go....no -  only +
[02:58] <yowshi> grrr even webcam studio crashes on me
[02:58] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: yup, he nailed it, you have an old burner that doesn't do DVD-R media, only DVD+R
[02:58] <quiksilver> mrwes: ahhh
[02:58] <mrwes> quiksilver, you need DVD+R
[02:58] <Slasher`> yowshi; have you tried a different usb port?
[02:58] <pik}> jaypur: im forced to use windoze with virtualbox cuz my bank dont support linux :(
[02:58] <mrwes> :)
[02:58] <quiksilver> mrwes: you're awesome, thanks so much
[02:58] <yowshi> and every god damned time a programme using the webcam crashes i have to reboot
[02:58] <quiksilver> PhotoJim: thanks so much also
[02:58] <PhotoJim> quiksilver: np
[02:58] <Slasher`> pik}; have you tried using wine to emulate a browser for your bank?
[02:58] <yowshi> Slasher`: whats the usb port have to do with anything. either the programme works or it doesnt
[02:58] <mrwes> quiksilver, I have an older drive in my server...same thing, only +R
[02:59] <soluxione> #soluxione
[02:59] <yowshi> Slasher`: besides cheese can see from the webcam just crashes on record
[02:59] <quiksilver> mrwes: that's funny, i thought +r was NEWER technology
[02:59] <Slasher`> yowshi; the program works for me, if the usb port is dodgy it may cause the program to crash.. just an idea
[02:59] <mrwes> quiksilver, unfortunately +R cost more
[02:59] <pik}> Slasher`: yes. but that was a while ago. theres probably some workaround now
[02:59] <pik}> im lazy
[02:59] <thahauss> I'm needing to restore Grub & am at the grub prompt, I see my linux partition is on /dev/sda1, however how do i know what to use for "root (hdx,x)"
[02:59] <Slasher`> yowshi; ah ok, just making suggestions on things to maybe try
[02:59] <jaypur> pik}, in my situation, i need to meet some adobe programs, because if i need some work, they may say, adobe indesign... and i wouldnt say inkscape for the win...
[02:59] <soluxione> please link chat ubuntu it?
[02:59] <Ljorring> opera is very very slow on the DNS lookup in Ubuntu 8.04. Anyone knows about a fix ?
[02:59] <mpontillo> Selva: it would be helpful if you copy/paste the entire output, or install "pastebinit" and use the second command I gave. then we just need the URL
[03:00] <Selva> ok...
[03:00] <Ljorring> opera takes about 30 seconds to lookup facebook.com f.x
[03:00] <soluxione> please link chat ubuntu it?
[03:00] <yowshi> Slasher`: dodgy i dont think so
[03:00] <Slasher`> yowshi; just a suggestion, that's what i would have done
[03:00] <soluxione> #ubuntu-it
[03:01] <pik}> jaypur: haha, yeah well at least i dont need to dualboot with windoze..enough with virtualbox
[03:01] <Slasher`> yowshi; but then again it's 3am here... im talking s*** lol
[03:01] <binskipy2u> hey guys, is it better if you are using ubuntu w/gnome of course, and if you want to add kde, just so you can configure both desktops when you log into them, to use apt-get install kde, or apt-get install kubuntu-desktop (i dont need all the kde versions of all the gnome apps i like now)?
[03:01] <yowshi> Slasher`: well either the pgoramme works or it doesnt but every programme i have tried crashes and doesnt let go of my webcam
[03:01] <jaypur> pik}, yeah...
[03:01] <thahauss> Can someone please help me, I'm needing to restore Grub & am at the grub prompt, I see my linux partition is on /dev/sda1, however how do i know what to use for "root (hdx,x)"
[03:01] <jaypur> pik}, right now my lap is installing 9.04 by upgrade from 8.10
[03:02] <pik}> jaypur: great :) sucks with ext3 > ext4 however
[03:02] <mikechelen> thahauss, it's probably root (hd1,1)
[03:02] <spikes> anyone know how to get a mic working? i can get feed back though my speakers, i have input source set to mic, recording capture on, mic boost maxed. i dont know what else to do
[03:02] <thahauss> mikechelen, thank you ill try that
[03:02] <jaypur> pik},  i really need to get it for ext4 and then i will fly....
[03:03] <mikechelen> thahauss, it might be possible to get a list of available drives, and try them
[03:03] <jaypur> pik},  i think i can play most games in wine...
[03:03] <thahauss> mikechelen, how would i get a list?
[03:03] <pik}> what games are you playing>?
[03:03] <pik}> wow?
[03:03] <binskipy2u> hey guys, if you want to add kde to ubuntu, is it better to add "kde" or "kubuntu-desktop" when you dont want "all of the kde apps" of the gnome ones you are already enjoying?
[03:03] <pik}> :p
[03:03] <H_M-Ubuntu> Hey, I'm having a problem with one of my hard drives. I can't get it to mount (It's NTFS), and it used to work until I booted into Windows Vista.
[03:03] <ravager> does anyone know if City of Heroes works?
[03:03] <binskipy2u> but you want to mess around with kde
[03:03] <jasonmchristos> I hit play and rhythmbox failed to open output device but getting sound elsewhere, this happened after changing plugins that seem to have nothing to do with soundcard.
[03:03] <H_M-Ubuntu> It says I don't have privileges to mount it.
[03:04] <mikechelen> binskipy2u, what is the harm in having kde programs available? they may work better
[03:04] <mikechelen> thahauss, in the grub shell there are some commands available
[03:04] <H_M-Ubuntu> Can someone help me?
[03:04] <s3g1> #ubuntu-it
[03:04] <painted> gnea, you here?
[03:04] <ravager> why did they see the need to change the way the audio works in 9.04?
[03:04]  * ravager sighs
[03:04] <pik}> H_M-Ubuntu: im not really sure but if you go to add/remove application and search for NTFS configuration
[03:04] <binskipy2u> none mike, i'm just wondering whats the best approach, kde or kubuntu-desktop
[03:05] <thahauss> mikechelen, i appreciate the help, the command was "find /boot/grub/stage1"
[03:05] <ravager> Maybe this is too confusing for me :(
[03:05] <jasonmchristos> please help
[03:05] <thahauss> mikechelen, I believe i got it now
[03:05] <H_M-Ubuntu> pik}, Add/Remove doesn't work on my system.
[03:05] <jasuus> hello.  I upgraded from 8 to 9.04 and everything works, i can ping out just fine, Opera works, but firefox cant find addresses.  what should i be looking at?
[03:05] <H_M-Ubuntu> It died a while ago :)
[03:05] <jasonmchristos> I hit play and rhythmbox failed to open output device but getting sound elsewhere, this happened after changing plugins that seem to have nothing to do with soundcard.
[03:05] <mrwes> quiksilver, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817507003 <-- 100 pack of DVD+R for $15.99 after rebate
[03:05] <H_M-Ubuntu> Not sure why, but I don't use it anyway.
[03:05] <mikechelen> thahauss, oh good, yeah thought there was some command to help
[03:05] <mrwes> quiksilver, and free shipping
[03:05] <Slasher`> jasuus; check that work offline in the file menu isn't enabled?
[03:06] <thahauss> mikechelen, imma restart and hopefully its all gooooood
[03:06] <jasuus> Slasher`, nope, thats not it
[03:06] <pik}> H_M-Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[03:06] <yowshi> and does asnyone know how to cancel the on mount fsck disk check thing so when i run through 30 reboots in 5 hours of trying to get my webcam to work i dont have to sit through 15 minutes of disk checks?
[03:06] <H_M-Ubuntu> pik}, way ahead of you :) But thanks. I'm trying it now.
[03:06] <puff> I want to set up a cron job to archive shows off my tivo onto my ubuntu box so I can free up space but watch the shows later.  Anybody know about this?
[03:06] <pik}> np
[03:07] <H_M-Ubuntu> No, still doesn't work.
[03:07] <Selva> http://pastebin.com/fcaad6a7 yay i figuered it out roflol :P jk... here is the pastebinit
[03:07] <H_M-Ubuntu> Says i'm not privileged... Still
[03:07] <swiftarrow> yowshi, you shouldn't need to reboot.  There are commands to load kernel modules on the fly.  Search for that.
[03:07] <pik}> H_M-Ubuntu: did you use the gui?
[03:08] <pdfedit> How can I annotate PDF files with sticky notes and highlighting under Linux?
[03:08] <H_M-Ubuntu> "DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
[03:08] <H_M-Ubuntu> Yet, the drive works fine in Windows.
[03:08] <yowshi> swiftarrow: they dont work. grrr when a programme using the webcam crashes i have to reboot no kill -9 no modprobe -r nothing will free up tyhat webcam except a reboot
[03:08] <devFox> is the ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso the correct image for 64bit intel as well?  I didn't see any other options.
[03:09] <pik}> H_M-Ubuntu: its a permission problem. did you use the gui with ntfs-config?
[03:09] <Slasher`> devFox; yes, for any 64 bit system
[03:09] <pik}> devFox: yes
[03:09] <Selva> H_M-Ubuntu: yeah i have the same problem... getting some help for it now.... listen to what they say about me then ask them about yours....
[03:09] <Selva> *afk*
[03:09] <devFox> thank you, the amd part had me worried.
[03:10] <Slasher`> devFox; no problem :)
[03:10] <H_M-Ubuntu> pik}, Well i'm assuming that while Windows was accessing the drive, it didn't close the session. Which means the NTFS session is still open, and Linux doesn't automatically reopen a session like Windows does.
[03:10] <yowshi> sighs and cheese crashes on start up with the webcam in a diffetrent usb port
[03:10] <binskipy2u> anyone know why VLC just stopped working, wont even open, when it did after first install of ubuntu 9.04, ive tried completely removing, rebooting, reinstalling, and it wont open at all
[03:11] <yowshi> i just want to smash my computer right now
[03:11] <H_M-Ubuntu> Hey i'll be back.
[03:11] <binskipy2u> i have all repos enabled, no "odd" ones
[03:11] <binskipy2u> just the ones that came with jaunty
[03:11] <yowshi> now i have to reboot AGAIN
[03:11] <swiftarrow> yowshi, a little investment of time now, will save you much in the future.
[03:12] <jun-sheep> Curious -- I have dual-monitors.  Would it be possible for me to run Gnome (gdm) on screen#0 and KDE (kdm) on screen#1 without having Gnome/KDE applications merging through on the menu?  To say.... to have the applications in their respectible fields
[03:12] <swiftarrow> binksipy, problems with jaunty?  I'm wondering if I should upgrade, given all that I've heard.
[03:12] <mikechelen> binskipy2u, try running vlc from command line, so you can see any errors
[03:13] <yowshi> swiftarrow: i have to reboot for the 15th freaking time today so those are hollow words
[03:13] <swiftarrow> yowshi I did tell you that you dont have to reboot to load kernel modules
[03:13] <binskipy2u> entire screen filled up
[03:13] <yowshi> swiftarrow: not load kernel modules but UNLOAD them
[03:13] <yowshi> swiftarrow: the modules loaded and stuck loaded and cheese is holdiong it hostage
[03:13] <swiftarrow> yowshi, you can unload them too, afaik.  BUt I dont know the command.
[03:14] <Ademan> does anyone know how to download CBS' tv shows from their website?   And Tasque... And GCC....
[03:15] <jaypur> pik}, upgraded now ill burn a cd
[03:15] <H_M-XP> And 27 other things...
[03:15] <H_M-XP> Actually you know what, brb again
[03:15] <H_M-XP> -.-
[03:15] <swiftarrow> yowshi, perhaps use a different application, besides cheese?
[03:15] <pik}> jaypur: alright..tell me about the result :)
[03:15] <yowshi> swiftarrow: the only one which seems to have any prmise is vlc but noone here or anywhere else seems to know how to get that to work
[03:16] <jun-sheep> yowshi: Try "killall cheese"
[03:16] <yowshi> jun-sheep: been there done that
[03:16] <Ademan> there's a command line webcam "viewer" that would let you test out your webcam (if that's indeed what's going on)
[03:16] <swiftarrow> yowshi, try sudoing?
[03:16] <Dr_Willis> Time to try a diffrent webcam?
[03:16] <Ademan> the name escapes me at the moment, but i'm sure you could find it in 5 seconds in synaptic
[03:16]  * Dr_Willis goes to eat some cheese. You jusrt made me hungry.
[03:16] <yowshi> swiftarrow: i have to do it via sudobecause i have to run cheese via sudo to get the webcam to work with it
[03:16] <jaypur> pik}, i dont know why but that drum at the start up goes looping... lol
[03:16] <mpontillo> Selva: hmm, unfortunately I can't tell much from that. it's reporting that it mounted fine. can you run this command next: (mount ; echo ; df ; echo ; grep sdb1 /var/log/*) | pastebinit
[03:16] <swiftarrow> right
[03:17] <jun-sheep> yowshi: xkill
[03:17] <pik}> jaypur: haha wtf
[03:17] <pik}> k3b?
[03:17] <jaypur> pik}, damn its not stopping
[03:17] <swiftarrow> yowshi, I suggest you use a different webcam app, something that doesn't require sudoing to start.
[03:17] <swiftarrow> but I have had no luck with my webcam: didn't work out of the box, so I left it.
[03:18] <yowshi> jun-sheep: exactly how do i use xkill?
[03:18] <jun-sheep> yowshi: Did you ever try it?
[03:18] <yowshi> jun-sheep: what do i do with xkill?
[03:18] <Selva> mpontillo: ok im back, any new from the pastebinit?
[03:18] <pik}> jaypur: still going?
[03:18] <pik}> :P
[03:18] <jun-sheep> !info xkill
[03:19] <jaypur> pik}, yeah... its like tutututut
[03:19] <jun-sheep> yowshi: You use it to kill cheese / or any other windows.
[03:19] <yowshi> jun-sheep: i already manually closed the cheese window so now only the process remains
[03:19] <jaypur> pik}, installing k3b
[03:19] <pik}> jaypur: yeeeeeeeeeeeeey
[03:19] <yowshi> jun-sheep: i can use the panel kill programme thing to get rid of the window
[03:20] <yowshi> jun-sheep: but the process wont die and the process is the problem
[03:20] <H_M-Ubuntu> Well..
[03:20] <jun-sheep> yowshi: How do you know if the process is still processing?  Do you use htop to list the processes
[03:20] <chenhuamj> hello
[03:20] <H_M-Ubuntu> I think it's reinstall time for Ubuntu....
[03:20] <H_M-Ubuntu> 5 things are broken and unfixable.
[03:20] <H_M-Ubuntu> So..
[03:20] <chenhuamj> really
[03:20] <jaypur> pik}, i dont know why it is looping...
[03:20] <darkhelmet> is anyone in here good with software raid?
[03:20] <jaypur> pik},  if it goes on i can use the system
[03:20] <yowshi> jun-sheep: ps -A|grep cheese
[03:21] <H_M-Ubuntu> darkhelmet, sorry, I do hard-raids only.
[03:21] <pik}> jaypur: haha do you mean the startup sound from ubuntu?
[03:21] <yowshi> jun-sheep:  yoshi@yoshi-ubuntu:~$ ps -A|grep cheese
[03:21] <yowshi> 16561 pts/0    00:00:00 cheese <defunct>
[03:21] <jaypur> does someone know how do i stop that drum from the login screen??? its looping
[03:21] <thompa> Big problem for intel 945 and similar. Anybody know if its xorg?
[03:21] <thompa> or kernel
[03:22] <jun-sheep> yowshi: I don't know.   Well, if anyone is. I've got a raid5 array with 2 drives marked as failed. However, one of them isn't actually failed. I need to re-mark the drive as if it were good and try to get my data back.
[03:22] <jaypur> pik}, burning
[03:22] <pik}> jaypur: haha dude what is up with your laptop and really weird problems?
[03:23] <jaypur> pik}, lol stopedt
[03:23] <jaypur> pik}, yeah like spirits man... wierd sh...
[03:23] <theCarpenter> what's the best flash plugin to use with jaunty?
[03:23] <thompa> I think for intel 945 it is kernel or xorg problem. as it is cross distros.
[03:24] <pik}> jaypur: soon you'll get a message.. "ALL YOUR BASE BELONGS TO US"
[03:24] <pik}> :D
[03:24] <jaypur> pik}, i'm almost beliving that will happen
[03:24] <ralmar> Hey guys. I installed kubuntu-deskpto package on top of my Ubuntu 9.04 installattion. about a couple weeks ago. However the last time i booted up I noticed I was presented with the kubuntu loading screen. Not my usual Ubuntu boot up screen, even though my default desktop environment is gnome. Why could this be and how can I change it ? Thanks
[03:25] <pik}> jaypur: haha ;)
[03:25] <maxagaz> is it possible using ssh to connect to a remote machine and cd to a given directory ?
[03:25] <jaypur> how can i desativate that start up sound from login screen???
[03:25] <pdfedit> Can I file this as a bug for Ubuntu? No way to edit PDFs? I just need to highlight stuff and add sticky notes.
[03:26] <yowshi> see my problem is there is no documentation about killing nunkillable processes because zombie processes are supposed to be harmless. but mine arent
[03:26] <thompa> I am wondering if I should upgrade the kernel, try to fix xorg.conf to support i945 better or downgrade?
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !pdf
[03:26] <yowshi> does anyone know how to skip the on mount efsck disk scan you get on reboot?
[03:26] <pdfedit> Jack_Sparrow: are you talking to me?
[03:26] <quiksilver> is there any language learning software thats ideal for ubuntu?
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[03:27] <BobbyShaftoe> Hey everyone. Could anyone give me some suggestions for an F/OSS project to help with programming. I just want a project that is done in C, the app is not absolutely (i.e. kernel), and the app can run in VMware (so video editing is probably out)
[03:27] <pdfedit> Jack_Sparrow: did you read the question?
[03:27] <BobbyShaftoe> SourceForge removed the functionality to search by programming language I think
[03:27] <maxagaz> how to make this command persistant : "modprobe saa7134 card=33,33,33,33" ?
[03:27] <thompa> And in Nvidia selection fan runs faster so if I switch to intel graphics stiill hosed
[03:27] <swiftarrow> yowshi, nope. But I guess I could divert with other suggestions ;)  On my laptop, it skips it when on battery power.
[03:27] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: Interesting... C or C/C++ ?
[03:27] <BobbyShaftoe> *absolute huge, I mean
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> pdfedit Yes. I read your post.
[03:27] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: C only
[03:27] <pdfedit> Jack_Sparrow: acrobat READER does not EDIT pdfs (breaking news)
[03:28] <yowshi> swiftarrow: diversion noted and not helpful
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> !attitude > pdfedit
[03:28] <frustrateduser> i am goin to reformat my ubuntu installation
[03:28] <Selva> hey while im in here, is there an overclocking utility for nVidia in/for linux?
[03:28] <quiksilver> is rosetta stone for mac and pc only?>
[03:28] <frustrateduser> but like next week
[03:28] <arvind_khadri> frustrateduser, why ?
[03:28] <pdfedit> !attitude > Jack_Sparrow
[03:29] <frustrateduser> because i, can't, for the life of me, get my wireless to work.
[03:29] <frustrateduser> and no wireless  means no os
[03:29] <swiftarrow> yowshi, sorry abt that.
[03:29]  * arvind_khadri sings somebody is gonna get kicked
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> pdfedit Knock it off.. thanks
[03:29] <BobbyShaftoe> quiksilver: Yes I believe Rosetta Stone is only Mac/PC but you could run it in a vm
[03:29] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: Networking stuff?
[03:29] <jaypur> pik}, ill boot now
[03:29] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: yeah that's cool
[03:29] <pdfedit> Jack_Sparrow: knock that off
[03:29] <pik}> jaypur: hoping for the best!
[03:29] <spikes> anyone good with mic and sound problems?
[03:29] <Hydrant> anyone familiar with tinydns here?  it doesn't look like the djbdns package does as much as it should to setup things
[03:30] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: There's plenty of networking stuff floating around... network security, stuff for networking systems, TCP/IP...
[03:30] <jaypur> pik}, its alive!!!!!
[03:30] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: If you're looking for a toy project, implement a simple client/server protocol for something
[03:30] <arvind_khadri> Jack_Sparrow, one hell of a troll :)
[03:30] <quiksilver> BobbyShaftoe: is there an alternative? or is that the best one out there
[03:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !info pdfedit
[03:30] <pik}> jaypur: OMG OMG OMG
[03:30] <jaypur> pik}, it goes to menu, now lets see if it install
[03:30]  * arvind_khadri sings somebody already got kicked
[03:30] <jaypur> pik}, damnnnn _ bliking again....
[03:30] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: Or are you looking for a real FOSS project you can contribute to?
[03:30] <pik}> nooooooooooo :(
[03:30] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: I kind of want to contribute to something. I did a network simulator (routing and arp requests) in one of my grad school classes this semester
[03:31] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: yeah I a regular project
[03:31] <jaypur> pik}, OMFG it went
[03:31] <jaypur> sorry for language guys
[03:31] <frustrateduser> contribute to getting wireless easier on ubuntu :(
[03:31] <fireicer> lo all
[03:31] <sharperguy> Anyone know if KDE4.2.3 is going to be backported to jaunty at any point?
[03:31] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: Well... there's always the option of contributing to soemting that uses MPI, f.ex... also tons of open source games that could use a good networks hacker
[03:31] <jaypur> pik}, like a friend said, fingers crossed
[03:31] <arvind_khadri> jaypur, dont use it too much, or else you too would be kicked
[03:31] <pik}> jaypur: sorre about the wasted cd
[03:31] <pik}> sorry
[03:31] <jaypur> pik}, i think its going... its loading splash now
[03:32] <tye> Hello all.
[03:32] <jaypur> pik}, i didnt wasted it, i can give it to a friend...
[03:32] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: yeah I'm doing MPI in a class next semester .. What are some open source games that are active that could use networking help? (I'm not really a graphics guy)
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot
[03:33] <patapra> hi, i'm new to linux. i downloaded network-manager-vpnc and am trying to get my campus vpn to work. i'm following this guide: http://helpdesk.cs.tamu.edu/index.php/Mac_OS_X_Cisco_VPN_Client#Configuring_the_Cisco_VPN_Client
[03:33] <arvind_khadri> sharperguy, ask #ubuntu-motu and or #kubuntu ? #kde
[03:33] <patapra> but there are additional options in the guide that aren't in the network manager
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !find vpnc
[03:34] <sharperguy> arvind_khadri, ok thanks I'll try that
[03:34] <fireicer> hey has anyone any idea when and if the fglrx driver will have support for the new xorg 7.4 in ubuntu9xx
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> patapra Did you install via our repos or download yourself
[03:34] <patapra> sudo apt-get ...
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[03:34] <bharadwaj> patpara:the guide must have been a bit outdaed
[03:34] <theCarpenter> BobbyShaftoe: Pretty much any modern game that resembles a commercial game willhave a strong networking component
[03:35] <patapra> the guide works for windows clients
[03:35] <BobbyShaftoe> theCarpenter: yeah, I guess I can look in the games section of SourceForge. I wish they still had the option to search by programming language.
[03:35] <patapra> i'm sorry. i wasn't clear. the guide is for a windows client but i'm trying to use those settings in ubuntu's network manager
[03:36] <quiksilver> anyone know if i can run rosetta stone under wine?
[03:36] <arvind_khadri> !vpn | patapra
[03:36] <wes_> quiksilver, no
[03:36] <BobbyShaftoe> quiksilver: probably the best bet is VMware
[03:36] <arvind_khadri> !appdb | quiksilver
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> quiksilver I have not tried it but it is not graphics intensive so I would think it would work
[03:37] <yowshi> does anyone know how to skip the on mount efsck disk scan you get on reboot?
[03:38] <arvind_khadri> yowshi, maybe try hitting escape
[03:39] <yowshi> arvind_khadri: tried that 2 rebootsd ago it didnt work
[03:41] <seeleet> http://s152.photobucket.com/albums/s168/tehstev/?action=view&current=img_1754.jpg
[03:41] <robdig> yowshi: think you can put an option in /etc/fstab. see man mount or man fstab for more. something like nocheck, but dont remember
[03:41] <seeleet> i found this ring a couple hours ago while planting a flower garden
[03:41] <seeleet> neat huh?
[03:41] <Yo> puto el que lee
[03:41] <Yo> hi!
[03:42] <yowshi> robdig: i dont want no checks ever just no checks when i am running through 25+ reboots a day
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> seeleet Wrong channel .. this is Ubuntu Support
[03:42] <robdig> yowshi: you can add the option while working on your issue, then when it is fixed remove it
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> yowshi Read the man and you can set it to number of days not number of boots
[03:43] <AustinS> Ok everyone, so I'm sitting at the dinner table (after dinner) with my entire family (8 people) and we start talking about the "play him off, keyboard cat" (http://playhimoffkeyboardcat.com/) when I grab my laptop sporting my new jaunty installation (which I had been talking up) to show everyone at the table a video.  I get it loaded up and start it playing, sound if off a bit and when I hit pause it keeps playing for a few seconds.  No
[03:44] <yowshi> Jack_Sparrow: man page of which command?
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> yowshi for the fsck
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[03:44] <yowshi> Jack_Sparrow: i have tried reasding that i dont understand it
[03:45] <o_> yowshi: tune2fs -c0 -i4w  (== 4 weeks)
[03:45] <arvind_khadri> yowshi, if you want to skip fscks do sudo touch /fastboot
[03:45] <Cirno09> does anyone here play Immaterial and Missing Power?
[03:45] <tuga3d> hi all, i have a 64 bits instalation of ubuntu, is it possible to do 32bits compilation of programs?
[03:45] <yowshi> o_: huh what the heck ios that?
[03:46] <arooni-mobile> help;;  intel_hda and i feel like theres some reason the sound seems really quite
[03:46] <arooni-mobile> quiet
[03:46] <yowshi> arvind_khadri: and what does this command do?
[03:46] <Cirno09> a touhou game
[03:46] <Cirno09> well has anyone here heard of touhou?
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> yowshi This filesystem will be automatically checked every 23 mounts or 180 days, whichever comes first.  Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.
[03:47] <dewkl> Ubuntu is randomly logging off, seems to happen when i use the mediaplayer
[03:47] <CorbenD> tou who? ')
[03:47] <dewkl> any idea what causing this?
[03:47] <arvind_khadri> yowshi, it would create a file fastboot, grub generally looks for 2 files before fsck forcefsck and fastboot, fastboot would make it skip the fsck
[03:47] <yowshi> arvind_khadri: and how do i undo the command?
[03:47] <arooni-mobile> sound on ubuntu ibex (t61 with intel_hda) is really so quiet that it makes it unusable;  any ideas on how to fix?
[03:48] <Cirno09> out of over 1,000 people in this channel there's no one else who knows about touhou?
[03:48] <arvind_khadri> yowshi, the file gets automatically deleted after the boot, so if again you want to skip, you would have to redo that command
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !find touhou
[03:48] <dewkl> Ubuntu is randomly logging off, seems to happen when i use the mediaplayer. Any idea what might cause this?
[03:49] <disappearedng> Hey is there anything that can let you instantly switch your screen brightness?
[03:49] <Cirno09> sorry i don't need any help just wondering if anyone knows about that game series
[03:49] <nadan_> whats the point in !find when u can sudo apt-cache search?
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Cirno09 It isnt part of the ubuntu repos.. so no this is nto the right place to ask
[03:49] <eseven73> Cirno09, if even half of those 1300+ people were actually here, it would be a miracle, most of them are idle and id' say a good amount of them have like 2 or three clones in here
[03:49] <yowshi> o_:  Jack_Sparrow that command just spits out the short help thing for tune2fs
[03:49] <fireicer> arooni-mobile have you tried having a look at the mixer settings and turning up the volume controlls for selected channels
[03:50] <Cirno09> oh no wonder there's so many
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> nadan_ !find is the bot trigger that we use to inform our users in channel
[03:50] <o_> yowshi: you should append the device name, i/e /dev/sda1
[03:50] <Cirno09> before now i've only seen about 107 people in a channel;
[03:50] <nadan> ah ok thanks Jack curious.
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> yowshi Read the man for tune..
[03:51] <yowshi> Jack_Sparrow: i hate man pages i almost never really understand how to use the information being presented in them
[03:51] <fireicer> me really like Virtualbox from sun systems hehe
[03:51] <luddite> man is good
[03:51] <luddite> woman is better
[03:51] <yowshi> o_:  Jack_Sparrow yoshi@yoshi-ubuntu:~$ tune2fs -c0 -i4w /dev/sdb1
[03:51] <yowshi> tune2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
[03:51] <yowshi> tune2fs: Permission denied while trying to open /dev/sdb1
[03:51] <jake> tamper data is cool
[03:51] <fornix> man rocks. I would have died without man
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> yowshi It is strongly advised that you not remove the fsck
[03:52] <yowshi> Jack_Sparrow: i never intended to
[03:52] <cgkades> yowshi: man pages are a "reminder" of how to do stuff... kind of like a math book.. completly worthless unless you already know how to do it
[03:52] <o_> yowshi: sudo tune2fs
[03:52] <yowshi> cgkades: which i typically dont know how to do it in the first place
[03:52] <cgkades> yowshi: lol exactly the problem i run into
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html
[03:53] <yowshi> well i ghave managed to get all my big drives on a time instead of a per boot check
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> cgkades Check out that free book
[03:53] <cgkades> Jack_Sparrow: ?
[03:53] <yowshi> and now i have to reboot
[03:53] <cgkades> Jack_Sparrow: oh nevermind i see it
[03:54] <fireicer> yowshi> i had similar prob while ago i just re-installed but thats sometimes not an option. the question is why is fsck running everytime it boots
[03:54] <TrozPSU> what's the easiest way to get my applications to launch on startup in the last position they were located at (including on different workspaces)?
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> fireicer It will do that if there is a serious error that it cant fix
[03:54] <yowshi> fireicer: it runs every X amount of reboots or time because as i understand it it is linux
[03:54] <byte^> How do I install and configure OSS for Ubuntu?
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> TrozPSU /join #compiz  they showed me how to do it
[03:54] <yowshi> fireicer: linux's checker for corrupt sectors and defragmentatrion thing
[03:55] <yowshi> bbs
[03:55] <nJustin3k> does swap space have to be specified? like: can I delte my swap space to put a primary partition where it curently is to install anohter OS and then put swap space on an extened partition after that?
[03:56] <cgkades> nJustin3k: you need to have a swap partition
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> nJustin3k yes, but it would take some fiddling with /etc/fstab
[03:56] <nJustin3k> im being told that 1) i dont and 2) if there is one anywhere on HD then it will find it, but that didnt sound right to me
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> cgkades HE can run without one long enough to create the new regular partition and the new swap
[03:58] <cgkades> Jack_Sparrow: yeah, i have major ADD toniight, i just need to stop responding before i finish reading the whole sentace
[03:58] <eseven73> speaking of swap how do I clear it? Im using like 17% swap
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> nJustin3k look in your fstab and you will see   UUID=c4a69a44-f310-4e3b-afa3-354f61bef075 none            swap    sw              0       0
[03:58] <nJustin3k> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thanks
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> np.. time for me to lurk while I work...
[03:59] <jaypur> when it goes the login screen, the drums goes looping, how could i desactivate those drums?
