[06:47] <Guest19936> greetz 2 all. Anybody available that wants to discuss a problem with interrupt handling in natty causing system to become very slow? Offending interrupt (16) in use for ethernet. Restarting networking resolves issue, or system restart also resolves.

[06:48] <casey> Hi there. Does anyone know an easy and effective way to add more space to an ubuntu partition? As odd as this sounds, I only have this partition (Maverick) and another which is currently just free space. Any helpers would be fantastic.

[06:52] <casey> Hi there. Does anyone know an easy and effective way to add more space to an ubuntu partition? As odd as this sounds, I only have this partition (Maverick) and another which is currently just free space. Any helpers would be fantastic.
[06:52] <imadam> Just wanted to follow up and let you know I got ubuntu installed in the end, I would put the issue down to burning the image to fast onto disk. Thanks for all your help and helping me to resolve this issue. <3

[06:53] <urlin2u> casey, remove the one empty if next to maverick and resize the maverick from a live cd.
[06:53] <[THC]AcidRain> worse thing about it is i just have to accept it. cause it has already started ripping my files apart lol
[06:53] <imadam> Haha yeah we won. Now just to find out how I set up dual monitors and we can all party.

[06:55] <html> ZenMaster,  hi
[06:55] <casey> urlin2u: And how does the live cd resize it without installing the OS again?
[06:55] <ZenMaster> html: Hello.
[06:55] <urlin2u> casey, is it unallocated or a empty partition?
[06:55] <html> imadam,  whats you need?

[06:56] <urlin2u> casey, post a screen shot of gparted, I don't like guessing.
[06:56] <ZenMaster> html: Do you have this one for "Casey"?
[06:56] <casey> urlin2u: Sure thing. Where's a good site to upload quickly?
[06:56] <imadam> Although is it possible to run one screen off HDMI and one off VGA?

[07:00] <ZenMaster> casey: Well what I'm asking, is are you using a mouse and windows. Are are you typing to a dark screen. If you are in "X" (Using a GUI((Graphical User InterFace))) Then I will lead to a program with a gui to do it. If you are in a console, then I will tell you via command line.
[07:00] <ZenMaster> Saves me time of having to write you a doc that explains both in IRC> :)
[07:00] <waseem> # ubuntu
[07:00] <casey> zenmaster: gui or in "X" is what i am doing.
[07:01] <newb1> urlin2u just wanted to say thanks for helping me get started with linux.
[07:01] <urlin2u> ZenMaster, so your going to expand the extended remove a swap and reload grub.
[07:01] <waseem> yes
[07:01] <ZenMaster> Gparted would be the program you are looking for.
[07:01] <ZenMaster> urlin2u: I will relay that to casey. :D
[07:01] <triptec> waseem, seems u would have to use Wine or VirtuaBox
[07:01] <urlin2u> ZenMaster, and move the partion to the left which means reloading grub to thge mbr
[07:01] <ZenMaster> You get that casey? :D LOL.

[07:46] <DaVamps> good morning all..is this the place to get some help
[07:46] <asdjaputra> DaVamps: yes
[07:46] <asdjaputra> for ubuntu
[07:47] <honey> iam using ubuntu 10.04 and i coudnt find fastest downloader is ther any file and vidieo downloader exept flashgote?
[07:47] <DaVamps> good. I need to figure out how to switch from the launcher back to the standard menu in ubuntu 11.04
[07:47] <pratz> hey guys how can i get the network connection window through a command ??
[07:47] <JadedJacob> This maybe a silly question but does ubuntu install faster in 'text mode' or once the live cd environment has loaded
[07:48] <JadedJacob> Cancel that lol
[07:48] <somsip> DaVamps: Logout. On the login screen at the bottom there will be a dropdown to choose your session. Choose Classic Gnome
[07:48] <urlin2u> DaVamps, you want the classic desktop?
[07:49] <pratz> how can i get the network manger window through command ??
[07:49] <pratz> i am using gnome
[07:49] <html> google it, its on the forms
[07:49] <DaVamps> somsip : ahh so with 11.04 it almost presets the windows managers
[07:49] <bullgard4_> DaVamps: Log out and Log in until you have keyed in your username. Then at the bottom there will appear a menu. Select "GNOME Classic'.
[07:49] <somsip> DaVamps: Just defaults to Unity, 'tis all. But no more Classic after 11.10
[07:49] <Johnny_Giggles> is there a program that allow me to securely write over a USB stick multiple times?  Like Disk Utility for OS X does
[07:49] <honey> please tell me if there is  fatset download menager for ubuntu 10.10
[07:50] <html> network manger window commandline,pratz
[07:50] <asdjaputra> honey: for torrents or regular files?
[07:50] <DaVamps> somsip : why is that..
[07:50] <asdjaputra> honey: any will do, use wget or firefox downloader
[07:50] <somsip> DaVamps: <shrugs> Executive decisions I guess
[07:50] <pratz> html: command to show up the network manager applet
[07:51] <honey> asdjaputra:is that for all format
[07:51] <honey> ?
[07:51] <DaVamps> somsip : figures.. i know progress is a good thing.. but so is a solid working foundation. lol
[07:51] <somsip> DaVamps: Unity is not for m either, but many people like it, so UTT
[07:51] <asdjaputra> honey: yes, it's a command line downloader, but there's a GUI representation of wget too
[07:51] <rumpe1> Johnny_Giggles, nowadays, this method is not more secure than simple wiping with just one iteration
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> Johnny_Giggles: dd will do that for you, or shred (if I remember correctly)
[07:52] <honey> asdjaputra:i need the graphical
[07:52] <DaVamps> somsip : yea.. i'm sure i will get used to it.. and eventually figure it out.. but until then... classic is best :D
[07:52] <somsip> DaVamps: as long as you find something thatworks for you. Plenty of other options too
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> Johnny_Giggles: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/en/man1/shred.1.html
[07:52] <DaVamps> somsip yea.. i'll have to look in to others as well..
[07:53] <DaVamps> brb..switching now.
[07:54] <asdjaputra> honey: download gwget
[07:54] <Johnny_Giggles> ActionParsnip: thanks for the info
[07:54] <honey> asdjaputra:yeah i download it it is front end of wget
[07:54] <Johnny_Giggles> looks pretty good
[07:55] <Johnny_Giggles> ActionParsnip: and it's installed by default!
[07:55] <honey> asdjaputra:how can i use it for example i have youtube vidioe and how can i download it
[07:55] <Starminn> Running Ubuntu 10.10 whenever my computer becomes idle it becomes unresponsive. I'll wiggle the mouse as if to bring it back, but nothing works, so I have to restart X (CTRL+ALT+Backspace) to get it to work again. Ideas?
[07:55] <DaVamps> SomSip : bless you , thanks for the help, wasnt totally sure how to do that and its perfect now :D
[07:56] <somsip> DaVamps: your welcome. PS: Openbox is popular for users who prefer standard-style menus
[07:56] <asdjaputra> honey: use youtube-dl for youtube vids, also command line
[07:57] <DaVamps> Somsip : by standard do you mean that look more like Windoez or that style?
[07:57] <ActionParsnip> Johnny_Giggles: yeah, cool
[07:57] <somsip> DaVamps: Well, if the Classic option goes with 11.10, maybe you would prefer an alternative. Openbox is one. There are many others
[07:57] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: what video chip do you use?
[07:58] <DaVamps> Somsip  : thanks for the suggestion, i will look in to it.
[07:58] <somsip> DaVamps: np
[07:58] <DaVamps> Somsip i have one more question if you have time
[07:58] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: ATI Radeon X600
[07:59] <somsip> DaVamps: I'll help if I can
[08:00] <DaVamps> somsip : im looking in to gettin a pci-e video card and running more then one monitor. is it possible to setup the 2 monitor to be indenpendant displays and not clones
[08:00] <DaVamps> monitors**
[08:00] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: ok then run:  sudo lshw -C display    to see the driver you are using, see if there are any bugs reported for your release, for that chip using the driver you are using
[08:01] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: is it a laptop or a desktop?
[08:01] <somsip> DaVamps: Never tried it so I can't help. I do see discussions about dual-head on here so maybe someone els can chime in. I'll leave it to them
[08:01] <asdjaputra> honey: and there's a youtube-dl-gui for GUI in python
[08:01] <IamTrying> I tried to install auto+vnc server but failed, here is my attempts e.g: https://gist.github.com/1200009
[08:01] <DaVamps> somsip : totally understandable
[08:01] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: Deskto
[08:01] <ActionParsnip> DaVamps: sure, nvidia-settings can let you configure 2 seperate X servers on each display easily
[08:01] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: does it have a make and model or is it a home build?
[08:02] <honey> asdjaputra: id ownload it both of them but the youtube-dl how  can i use it?
[08:02] <asdjaputra> honey: gwget and youtube-dl-gui?
[08:02] <DaVamps> ActionParsnip : that would make the that the 2 monitors display an extended desktop setting?
[08:03] <IamTrying> Do i have to disable SELinux?
[08:03] <ActionParsnip> DaVamps: Makes sense, I'd say so
[08:03] <honey> asdjaputra: yes gwget and youtube-dl
[08:04] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: The desktop? It's all stock with the exception of some extra RAM. It's a Dell Dimension E-510 and the output of that command is: http://pastie.org/2496015
[08:04] <pratz> how to run gnome network manager ??
[08:05] <pratz> when i press Alt + F2 , what i have to enter to get network manager
[08:05] <DaVamps> Pratz : check the docs on the ubuntu site. they are very helpful
[08:05] <pratz> DaVamps: if you know what to enter please let me know
[08:05] <somsip> pratz: gnome-nettool? is that what you want?
[08:06] <pratz> somsip: not that's not the one
[08:06] <DaVamps> pratz : what build of ubuntu are you running.. i'll search the docs.
[08:06] <Starminn> pratz: network-manager-applet?
[08:06] <pratz> Starminn: yes
[08:06] <somsip> pratz: run software-center from command line, searchfor network. It's shows the command line for all packages under More Info. Thats how I find them
[08:07] <Starminn> pratz: "Gnome Network Manager program name" on Google - 1st result
[08:07] <asdjaputra> honey, sorry what was it about?
[08:08] <HET2> has anyone been able to successfully create an ubuntu usb stick on mac?
[08:09] <JadedJacob> anyone know of a good website I can read about the differences between Primary and Extended partitions ?
[08:09] <apix> goodmorning !
[08:09] <somsip> JadedJacob: copy what you've just typed and paste into www.google.com
[08:09] <maletapfc> how to reinstall linux-image? (I need to rollback default sound drivers)
[08:09] <asdjaputra> zao an
[08:10] <VxQe> somsip, don't recommend google.
[08:10] <HET2> JadedJacob: main difference is you can boot off primary, but you can have more extended partitiions
[08:10] <IamTrying> When VNCviewer try it gets 104 error what does it mean? Is my VNC server not working e.g: https://gist.github.com/1200009
[08:11] <JadedJacob> OK.

[08:12] <prakas> i bought a laser printer from samsung, why it says only windows and mac osx supported! it doesnt seem to be detected on ubuntu
[08:12] <DaVamps-AFK> somsip : how easy is OpenBox to install and setup
[08:12] <JadedJacob> urlin2u: cheers
[08:12] <urlin2u> JadedJacob, no problem.
[08:12] <asdjaputra> DaVamps-AFK, install=easy, setup=hard
[08:13] <JadedJacob> OK, If I already have Vista installed, and I want to setup a Dual boot, I can create my root partition for ubuntu as a logical partition right?
[08:13] <DaVamps-AFK> asdj : is openbox based off of fluxbox?
[08:13] <somsip> DaVamps-AFK: I haven't done it for 2-3 years, so I can't advise
[08:14] <bambanx> how can uninstall a program on console ?
[08:14] <asdjaputra> DaVamps-AFK, no idea, sorry
[08:14] <ActionParsnip> JadedJacob: depends how many partitions you have already
[08:14] <ActionParsnip> bambanx: sudo apt-get remove packagename
[08:14] <prakas> it seems like the hardware manufacturers are rejecting linux for some reason!
[08:14] <asdjaputra> DaVamps-AFK, i think it's based on BB let me google it
[08:15] <ActionParsnip> JadedJacob: if you only have one, you can make them all primary as each physical drive can only have FOUR primary partitions
[08:15] <bambanx> thanks
[08:15] <auronandace> !print | prakas
[08:15] <asdjaputra> DaVamps-AFK, right, based off blackbox
[08:15] <ActionParsnip> prakas: depends which you are talking about. Support by some is phenominal
[08:15] <JadedJacob> I'm just reading this.
[08:15] <JadedJacob> https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html
[08:15] <urlin2u> JadedJacob, unlikely that you need a boot partition, the mbr takes care of that.
[08:15] <scandalist> irc.haxnet.org
[08:15] <asdjaputra> JadedJacob, outdated
[08:15] <asdjaputra> scandalist, is that ubuntu-related?
[08:15] <prakas> i have cups installed probably
[08:16] <scandalist> Yes
[08:16] <MSgtGunny> I have a quick question, what program should you use to run object codes files i.e. compiled C code files?
[08:16] <JadedJacob> hmmm
[08:16] <ActionParsnip> JadedJacob: You need a minimum of 2 partitions for Ubuntu, so you will only need 3 partitions, so all can be primary (in this example)
[08:16] <ActionParsnip> MSgtGunny: you can run them with g++ or install an IDE like geany
[08:17] <asdjaputra> scandalist, connection timed out
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> prakas: what make and model is teh printer?
[08:17] <auronandace> ActionParsnip: actually you only need a / partition (swap is optional but highly recomended)
[08:17] <html> i want to take a movie (big buck bunny ) and make it in a iso so i can put in in the dvd player , how do i go about that?
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> auronandace: I'm going by advised settings, swap is used in the default setup, so I use that to advise new users
[08:17] <somsip> html: devede
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> html: use devede
[08:18] <urlin2u> html, brasero will rip and burn.
[08:18] <somsip> urlin2u: does it convert from *avi (whatever) to DVD format and burn too?
[08:18] <html> as fast as you guys answer i should pay u
[08:18] <prakas> ActionParsnip: perhaps it is ML1666
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> prakas: who makes it?
[08:19] <prakas> ActionParsnip: samsung
[08:19] <honey> what i need is just like flash got thats display with in the youtube site and that is compfortable to download any vidio and file?

[08:21] <mc89__> is there a way at all to make the global font look better
[08:21] <mc89__> it looks very stringy and thin
[08:21] <prakas> ActionParsnip: their cd has drivers for windows and mac!
[08:21] <mc89__> is it just a case of changing the font (because i cant seem to make it look much better)
[08:21] <asdjaputra> honey, hey you there?
[08:21] <asdjaputra> i'm wondering how often will irclogs updated in the main server?

[08:24] <francesco_> ciao
[08:24] <somsip> honey: I haven't been closely watching your thread, but I have used DamnVid successfully for grabbing YT videos
[08:24] <asdjaputra> honey, but I can't answer that question, wget could download all (including videos) but these commands will work only in command line
[08:24] <francesco_> !list
[08:25] <prakas> ActionParsnip: their cd had windows and mac drivers so i didnt know they have a linux one
[08:25] <honey> asdjaputra:thanks
[08:25] <ActionParsnip> prakas: the CDs they ship always have real old drivers, even for Windows. Always grab the ones from the website

[08:31] <html> ben_stein,  maybe  too many connections, 2) it could be not enough bandwidth
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> khaliG: unity2D replaces Ubuntu Classic in Oneiric onwards
[08:31] <ben_stein> html neither of those things
[08:31] <Untouchab1e> ActionParsnip: interesting.. will check it out if the ppa I linked to doesnt work
[08:31] <Untouchab1e> thank you
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> Untouchab1e: ppa:lmedinas/ppa is 3.1.4

[08:32] <khaliG> ActionParsnip, i see! i've been using the classic look on my desktop forever, but i recently installed the latest on a laptop and found it strange and unusable
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> khaliG: you may need to jump to XFCE / LXDE / KDE then
[08:32] <Untouchab1e> ActionParsnip: the one I linked to has 3.1.9
[08:32] <Untouchab1e> but we shall see :) thanks again
[08:32] <Untouchab1e> bbl
[08:32] <asdjaputra> khaliG, if you use it for a while you'll get used to it
[08:33] <ActionParsnip> Untouchab1e: you get the idea ;)
[08:33] <ben_stein> i am connected now using wvdial, everything is working except evolution and chat, the items in the envelope menu in the top right corner
[08:33] <auronandace> khaliG: if you don't like gnome3 or unity then I'd highly recomend xfce
[08:33] <khaliG> asdjaputra, lol but i hate it, and no i never will! :)
[08:33] <ben_stein> so does evolution only recognize connections from teh connection manager?
[08:33] <ben_stein> the
[08:33] <asdjaputra> khaliG, i tried another distro to avoid it (Deb) but it looks so cool i can't resist to use it :D
[08:34] <asdjaputra> khaliG, as ActionParsnip said, jump to another DE/WM
[08:34] <khaliG> asdjaputra, i guess its just familiarity
[08:34] <khaliG> i'd rather not, i like classic - it seems to be fine now
[08:34] <asdjaputra> khaliG, yep, it's still in development state btw, so do expect bugs
[08:34] <khaliG> asdjaputra, the new look is?
[08:34] <ben_stein> khaliG at first i hated the new interface, but once i got used to it i love it
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> khaliG: when Natty is EOL you will need to use a different DE or use the Unity stuffs
[08:35] <asdjaputra> khaliG, yes
[08:35] <asdjaputra> in 11.10 it'll be far more better
[08:35] <auronandace> khaliG: gnome2 won't be around from 11.10 onwards
[08:35] <khaliG> oh man, the whole reason i switched to the default look from years of using blackbox etc was because i just wanted to use the default - thing is the default now just plain sucks
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> asdjaputra: works fine here ;)
[08:35] <asdjaputra> i wrote a review in Muktware (for Dash only though)
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> ben_stein: is evolution in offline mode?
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> auronandace: there is a 3rd party fork of gnome2 called 'mate'
[08:36] <khaliG> so now i might have to go back to blackbox lol
[08:36] <asdjaputra> ActionParsnip, yes, on some computers
[08:36] <asdjaputra> khaliG, fluxbox :)
[08:36] <auronandace> ActionParsnip: yeah I saw that in the arch forums, thanks
[08:37] <khaliG> asdjaputra, i wanted to get away from all that tinkering :/
[08:37] <asdjaputra> anyway this is getting a bit ot
[08:37] <ActionParsnip> auronandace: so it will 'be around' then?
[08:37] <Kevin___> actionparsnip may u PM me please
[08:37] <asdjaputra> khaliG, in blackbox or unity?
[08:38] <auronandace> ActionParsnip: not as gnome2 (and I doubt mate will be ready in time to be supported by the next ubuntu release)
[08:38] <ben_stein> ActionParsnip, no, it wont find an internet connection unless the connection was done through the network manager, but i need to connect using wvdial at the moment, which is working fine for everything except evolution and gtalk
[08:38] <khaliG> asdjaputra, blackbox, I used to waste too much time setting up keybindings and refining them - so forced myself to switch to vanilla ubuntu years back
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> auronandace: true
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> ben_stein: let me search
[08:40] <skpl> hello all, i ust installed 11.04 on a usb drive but it said it couldnt install the mbr, is there any way i can fix this, like installing the mbr manually?

[08:43] <DaVamps-AFK> any one have a link to a site with a full list of Ubuntu Window Managers
[08:44] <asdjaputra> DaVamps-AFK, Ubuntu window managers?
[08:44] <asdjaputra> there's no such thing as Ubuntu Window Managers :)
[08:44] <khaliG> asdjaputra, not cool though, they shouldn't make the out of box experience so bad
[08:44] <DaVamps-AFK> aasdj : ya like FluxBox and OpenBox
[08:44] <khaliG> more and more reason to switch to mac os x i think
[08:44] <urlin2u> DaVamps-AFK, even better check this out. http://xwinman.org/
[08:45] <DaVamps-AFK> urlin2u :ty i will
[08:45] <ben_stein> asdjaputra: window managers available in the ubuntu repositories? i think you can call them ubuntu window managers
[08:45] <MonkeyDust> asdjaputra: http://xwinman.org/
[08:45] <aago1254> hello
[08:45] <aago1254> is anyone here that can help me out
[08:45] <asdjaputra> ben_stein, nah, it would still be called window managers
[08:46] <asdjaputra> unless Ubuntu modified them all and call them something different

[08:48] <asdjaputra> imo
[08:49] <bartmon> hi! does the login manager in 11.04 remember the last chosen session regardless of user or does it remeber the settings for every user separately?
[08:49] <Vampy> Asdja : KDE is ok..
[08:49] <asdjaputra> bartmon, regardless of user
[08:49] <aago1254> or do i go to my etc/modprob.d/ files and if i add it there where do i up in the inf file
[08:50] <asdjaputra> bartmon, unless you run dm in different ttys
[08:51] <aago1254> humm well thank you guys anyways ill try another irc chat
[08:51] <asdjaputra> i'm wondering could you connect 2 monitors to 1 computer and run different sessions?
[08:52] <asdjaputra> aago1254, ok
[08:52] <oCean> asdjaputra: sure, it's called multiseat
[08:52] <asdjaputra> oCean, using X?
[08:52] <oCean> asdjaputra: yes
[08:52] <khaliG> who is behind unity? Is it ubuntu or gnome?
[08:52] <bartmon> asdjaputra: well i have a workstation that i share with another user and she doesn't like unity very much. i don't mind it but i don't want to confuse her with choosing the classic session at login every time.
[08:52] <asdjaputra> wow any scripts needed to do this?

[08:53] <asdjaputra> khaliG, no use of complaints here, try to speak it with Mark
[08:53] <asdjaputra> :D
[08:53] <oCean> khaliG: this channel is for support, discussion is welcome in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:54] <bartmon> khaliG: have you tried gnome3 yet?
[08:54] <khaliG> talking about ubuntu isn't ontopic?! lol
[08:54] <khaliG> bartmon, nope
[08:55] <oCean> khaliG: that's not what I said. This is technical support questions only. If you need to rant, find another place to do so
[08:55] <asdjaputra> bartmon, edit .dmrc
[08:55] <bartmon> khaliG: yes, they do believe they can do better. That's one of the strengths of open source that you can take a project and take it into another direction. It's called forking.
[08:55] <asdjaputra> bartmon, sorry i was wrong, it was per-user config files
[08:56] <asdjaputra> agree with bartmon, so they will keep improving it for their needs
[08:56] <bartmon> asdjaputra: thanks, i'll look into it
[08:56] <khaliG> bartmon, well they're retarded - this is an abomination

[09:00] <bartmon> bahamas: what kind of network card do you have?
[09:00] <asdjaputra> so we can look for the problems
[09:01] <bahamas> asdjaputra: bartmon  4:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n
[09:01] <nadim_> asdjaputra: shall I drown you with useless information or shall I wait till you ask for what you exactely want to know?!
[09:02] <bartmon> nadim_: pastebin.com is your friend!
[09:02] <asdjaputra> nadim_, no use of demanding here
[09:02] <bahamas> asdjaputra: when i run nm-tool, driver is 'wl'
[09:03] <nadim_> x config written by nvidia-settings doesn't work
[09:03] <nadim_> x config written by nvidia-xconfig zorks but a single monitor is used
[09:04] <Guest99963> ciao
[09:04] <asdjaputra> bahamas, there's a debian wiki page for that, check http://wiki.debian.org/wl but when i tried to open it, it is on 404
[09:05] <nadim_> nvidia-settings shows NVIDIA driver 173.14.30
[09:05] <nadim_> the three screens are detected
[09:05] <bartmon> bahamas: there are a few bugs for that network card: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.searchtext=BCM4313&orderby=-importance&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=NEW&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITH_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITHOUT_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=CONFIRMED&field.status%3Alist=TRIAGED&field.status%3Alist=INPROGRESS&field.status%3Alist=FIXCOMMITTED&field.assignee=&field.bug_reporter=&field.omit_dupes=o

[09:05] <asdjaputra> wow flood
[09:06] <bartmon> bahamas: try to see if those reports contain any hints.. are you comfortable with doing that?
[09:06] <bartmon> asdjaputra: blame launchpad :P
[09:06] <bahamas> bartmon: yes, i'll check them out
[09:07] <ActionParsnip> bartmon: heard of tinyurl?
[09:07] <asdjaputra> Chanserv don't flood :)
[09:07] <bartmon> ActionParsnip: yes.
[09:07] <dagon666> where should I add xhost +local: to make it permanent ?
[09:08] <nadim_> Any more "specialized" channel for X or nvidia problems?
[09:08] <asdjaputra> nadim_,  #Xorg
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> bartmon: so why not use it?
[09:08] <asdjaputra> or #nvidia
[09:09] <harlock06> coucou tout le monde
[09:09] <nadim_> Obviously I asked for ubuntu users channels that deal with X or Nvidia.
[09:09] <harlock06> je suis nouveau dans le monde ubuntu
[09:09] <somsip> !fr | harlock06
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> !fr
[09:09] <bahamas> dagon666: your .bashrc
[09:09] <Vampy> any one know what the updated package for gthread is
[09:09] <harlock06> hi, sorry :)
[09:09] <harlock06> i go on the channel FR
[09:09] <dagon666> bahamas: I would rather want to avoid that
[09:10] <bahamas> dagon666: why?
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> Vampy: do you mean there is a newer version than on the default repos?
[09:11] <Vampy> Action : i'm tryin to install the MetaCity WM, and its asking for glib (succesfully updated) but gthread cant be found
[09:12] <Vampy> Action : in term i run sudo apt-get install gthread and returns unable to locate package
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> Vampy: all the deps for metacity are in the repos
[09:12] <devcalais> 64bit 11.04 compared to 32bit uses an entirely different kernel, yeah? There is no 'upgrade' option between the two? I just got mailed a 64bit copy, installed 32bit because I was impatient..
[09:13] <Vampy> Action : so then ./configure then make then make check then make install should work?
[09:13] <somsip> devcalais: I did find a very long and complicated method to switch from 32 to 64, but I just installed 64 on a separate partition and built it up from there
[09:14] <bahamas> bartmon: from what i understand here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/728746 , the issue would be that i'm missing some files. however, those files are present in my case
[09:14] <Vampy> Action : or would i be better off to sudo apt-get install metacity-<vers>
[09:14] <dagon666> bahamas: because bashrc is ment to configure your current tty/pty not to grant/deny access globally to the x server. Of course it will work but it is dirty
[09:16] <asdjaputra> oCean, why ban?
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> !info metacity
[09:18] <Vampy> Action : so i would need to update it to the newest version, correct?
[09:18] <bahamas> dagon666: doesn't xorg have a config file where you can do this?
[09:20] <bartmon> bahamas: yes, that was fixed during 11.04 development, before the release in april. I would personally try the method outlined in the last comment - blacklist the default driver (module) and go with b43 & fwcutter. It works really stably on my debian server
[09:20] <JadedJacob> What's a good text partition program for ubuntu?
[09:20] <robinduckett> cut?
[09:21] <rww> fdisk?
[09:21] <asdjaputra> parted
[09:21] <bahamas> did bartmon go anywhere? my client doesn't show jons and parts
[09:21] <JadedJacob> there is another one, but i can't think of the name...
[09:21] <bahamas> anyway, i did use b43 and fwcutter. that's how i got the wireless to work in the first place
[09:22] <robinduckett> bartmon is not here
[09:22] <robinduckett> !seen bartmon
[09:23] <robinduckett> hm
[09:23] <robinduckett> .seen bartmon
[09:23] <bahamas> yeah, he probably parted
[09:23] <robinduckett> no?
[09:23] <robinduckett> really? in a channel with who knows how many people in, no one has left a default seen script on?
[09:24] <taky> anyone familiar with ip-forwarding?
[09:24] <asdjaputra> bartmon left
[09:24] <asdjaputra> taky, in router?
[09:25] <taky> asdjaputra: would like to make it so one of my servers can utilize ips from another server
[09:25] <taky> so, both external ips
[09:25] <asdjaputra> sorry can't help on networking :(
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> taky: in routers, yes
[09:25] <Zol> If I try "ssh -l git github" and I connect as the git user on another server, where could the config file be that sets this? In my ~/.ssh I have a config file that just specifies the port to use for a specific hostname
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> taky: you'll need to setup port forwarding
[09:26] <Vampy> Taky : or an VPN
[09:27] <taky> ok, i've enabled forwarding of ipv4 via /etc/sysctl.conf
[09:27] <taky> i tried adding a rule to /etc/network/interfaces but it didn't work properly, and i'm unsure of the commands i have to run on the other box to utilize the ip
[09:29] <taky> brb guys, going to grab some coffee, appreciate the help btw
[09:29] <asdjaputra> ah caffeine :)
[09:30] <chip_rider> hello I've installed ubuntu 11.04 and after booting into ubuntu I am getting errors such as: "Bad LUN (0:1) Bad Target Number (1:0)" etc. and with an ATI radeon HD 6490m. What might be the problem? google and such returns no results. Thanks.
[09:31] <taky> ok i'm back
[09:32] <jadahl> chip_rider: how are these errors presented to you?
[09:32] <taky> so anyone have experience in forwarding an ip address from one machine to another?
[09:33] <JadedJacob> Is Ext4 a solid file system now?
[09:33] <chip_rider> jadahl, on boot ubuntu in recovery mode.
[09:33] <JadedJacob> I remember reading the ubuntuforums about ext4 having a few bugs.
[09:34] <Vampy> any filesystem has bugs
[09:35] <chip_rider> if I edit the boot string and change "ro ...." with "ro radeon.modeset=0 ..." then the system don't puts this errors but freezes on the next step "Skip stopping firewall: ufw (not enabled)"
[09:37] <help_fast> hi, i cant reinstall wubi, it just bring me the choice to read more about my last xubuntu installation, or restart the computer. Any hints? I manually deleted c:\ubuntu and c:\wubins* stuff
[09:37] <help_fast> Is there some registry values which to delete
[09:40] <scarleo> Is there any difference to allowing ALL from a certain IP than explicitly allowing a certain port from IP in Firewall configuration? Zeroconf will only work when adding a certain port...
[09:40] <bahamas> i have another issue. sometimes (only twice so far) the music that is played when ubuntu starts loops forever. has anyone encountered this?
[09:40] <asdjaputra> bahamas, can you quit it? killall canberra-gtk-play
[09:40] <asdjaputra> bahamas, and you could disable it on Startup Apps
[09:41] <tuxybuzz> join
[09:41] <asdjaputra> i do hate it when the volume got turned up automatically to 100% and it plays the music
[09:42] <bahamas> asdjaputra: well, it's not playing now, so i can't try. i don't mind the music, i just don't want that loop from happening
[09:42] <bahamas> or if i can find a way to fix it, that's even better
[09:42] <asdjaputra> bahamas, canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login"
[09:42] <AkuUsagi> hello, i would like to know how to deactivate the splash screen on ubuntu 11.04 and get my old verbose bootscreen back.
[09:43] <ne2k> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+question/166005 I followed the instructions in comment 1 to fix my sound not working after upgrading to natty. I have now just rebooted after a recent upgrade and sound is not working again -- because I have 2.6.38-10 modules and not 2.6.38-11 modules.
[09:44] <ne2k> looking at the package info for linux-alsa-driver-modules-2.6.38-11-generic_2.6.38-11.201108241605_amd64.deb it says "You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install  the linux-alsa-driver-modules-natty-generic meta-package", (which would presumably keep the modules in step with the kernel), but this package is not in my apt-cache list. any idea why?
[09:45] <bahamas> i love it when people say something and then they leave
[09:45] <bahamas> without saying that they're leaving
[09:48] <Zuhaitz> Yes, * is just in /dev/sda6
[09:48] <ne2k> also, ppa:team-iquik/alsa doesn't seem to exist any more
[09:49] <maalac> reseting bios password on HP ProBook 6555b. I know there is like a binary or something to do this ..i forgot the password ..need to update bios ..LAN is not working on battery mode
[09:49] <ne2k> maalac: there is usually a hardware way to reset the bios, involving jumpers or combinations of keys at power on. consult your manufacturer
[09:50] <maalac> tried removing the battery ..didn't work ..i don't see any jumpers on it ..
[09:51] <ne2k> maalac: jumpers will be on the motherboard
[09:51] <ne2k> maalac: you mean you removed the bios battery on the motherboard?
[09:51] <maalac> yes, and i tried looking for the jumpers i don't see any ..
[09:52] <ne2k> maalac: there may be a capacitor too, which you would either have to wait to empty or short out to drain it
[09:52] <ne2k> maalac: but, like I said, consult the manufacturer for specific instructions
[09:52] <hostdream> hello, I'm doing an automated ubuntu deployment and I've a problem during the automated install; I've one step where it ask me "Write the changes to disks ?" and have to click yes... how can I avoid this ? I'm installing 10.04
[09:54] <koshieFinalReliz> Hi folks.
[09:54] <coolforyou> hi guys
[09:54] <coolforyou> i am new to linux
[09:54] <maalac> ne2k: thanks. i was just assuming that somebody here already know ..
[09:54] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, welcome
[09:54] <pato> I'm trying to install ubuntu at a "hp EliteBook 8540w" with a nvidia "Quadro FX 1800M". The liveCD crashes when starting Xorg. I've had some trouble with openSuSE 11.4 until I've installed Nvidia-drivers. My concern is that the card is too new for "nv" or "noveau" drivers. How can I enforce the liveCD to use vesa or alike?
[09:54] <coolforyou> thank ou koshie
[09:54] <koshieFinalReliz> Np
[09:55] <coolforyou> :)
[09:55] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, it's a big community with a lot of nice people. And bad too. :D
[09:55] <koshieFinalReliz> But Ubuntu is perfect for new user.
[09:55] <coolforyou> is it good idea to practice ubuntu linux in VMware ?
[09:55] <idefix> what happens if you type 'ftp &' in a terminal? is it started somewhere invisibly and you can reuse the terminal?
[09:55] <jrib> pato: there may be some way but I would just use the alternate install cd instead
[09:55] <jrib> !alternate | pato
[09:55] <bahamas> idefix: the process will run in the background
[09:55] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, why not. You've Wubi too. It's is just to try it it's good. But for every day I don't think so.
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> pato: add the boot option:  blacklist.nouveau=1
[09:56] <jrib> idefix: 'fg' should bring it back to the foreground
[09:56] <bahamas> idefix: so yes, you can continue to type in the terminal
[09:56] <koshieFinalReliz> Wubi install Ubuntu IN windows, like a software. So it's not the best way to use Ubuntu :)
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> pato: you will then use the nv driver which should work ok
[09:56] <apa__> anyone, is there some option in wubi, which forces the reinstallation?
[09:56] <idefix> jrib is there a way to resend it back to the background?
[09:56] <coolforyou> kos, i just wanted to practice the linux command and instaling driver s , so is VM ware is good option for me
[09:56] <jrib> idefix: ctrl-z and then 'bg'
[09:56] <robinduckett> idefix: probably best to use screen
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> apa__: you can uninstall it, then reinstall it
[09:57] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, not good for driver :D
[09:57] <robinduckett> apa__: uninstall reinstall
[09:57] <idefix> robinduckett? what do you mean with that?
[09:57] <coolforyou> ook ok bro ,
[09:57] <robinduckett> ftp is an ftp client right?
[09:57] <koshieFinalReliz> VM simulate a computer, for Ubuntu that's not your computer, but an other, simulate by vm
[09:57] <robinduckett> why would you want to background it?
[09:57] <coolforyou> so what can i learn through VMware kos :)
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> coolforyou: vmware is great as a testing bed but the hardware is virtualized so you sidestep a lot of driver issues
[09:57] <midhuno> help me i cant play vdos on xmbc
[09:57] <Guest42033>  How to join Yahoo chat room on ubuntu
[09:57] <jnsl_> I cant get Medibuntu repo to appear on natty, anyone had similar problem?
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> !info xbmc
[09:57] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, you can test a lot of thing on Ubuntu :)
[09:57] <robinduckett> Guest42033: seriously?
[09:58] <robinduckett> xbox media center
[09:58] <Guest42033> Yes
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> midhuno: i'd ask in the xbmc channel
[09:58] <robinduckett> Guest42033: turn your computer off and go outside
[09:58] <pato> OK, guys (jrib, ActionParsnip), thanks a lot. I'll try the blacklist.noveau=1 right now. If it fails, I'll try the alternate.
[09:58] <robinduckett> Guest42033: find a pretty girl and make a connection
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> Guest42033: there is empathy and pidgin which can do it, or you can install gyache
[09:58] <apa__> if i try to run wubi, it does not allow me to install, it just gives me options to read more, or restart. I had wubi installation but i removed the c:\ubuntu and c:\wubins* stuff, and now i cant reinstall it..
[09:58] <coolforyou> ok that fien Action and kos . so it is impossible to practice driver s installation in VMware right ?
[09:59] <AwwwCrap> I'm having a heck of a time trying to configure custom settings in xorg.conf for my joystick.  I'm trying to customize the button layout so it is useful for XBMC, but no matter what I do, it just does the default layout.  Help?  Plz??
[09:59] <midhuno> i hav problems in using public wifi networks in ubuntu
[09:59] <koshieFinalReliz> You don't have to install by yourself a driver on Ubuntu, just in some case.
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> apa__: this page has how to manually uninstall: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide
[09:59] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou,
[09:59] <midhuno> what 2 do?
[09:59] <apa__> ActionParsnip:  i have done the manual uninstall, it didnt help
[09:59] <coolforyou> thas fine kos .:)
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> AwwwCrap: does it work in other apps
[09:59] <koshieFinalReliz> In most popular case your hardware are supported by Ubuntu with free driver, if it's not, you've proprietary, sometimes better
[10:00] <koshieFinalReliz> Like for gamers.
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> apa__: that page is all I know of wubi.
[10:00] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, In my case I've never a problem, I'm using Intezl ^^
[10:00] <koshieFinalReliz> Intel FTW
[10:00] <AwwwCrap> ActionParsnip: it works fine as far as games and emulators go, and it moves the mouse around, but the layout is horrible and I'd like to change it
[10:00] <apa__> ActionParsnip: ok.. i have used wubi couple times, but now i cant get it to work..
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> AwwwCrap: then I'd ask in the xbmc channel
[10:00] <coolforyou> kos , actually i was tying to learn red hat linux , but i felt ubuntu will be good to start
[10:01] <AwwwCrap> ActionParsnip:   its a xorg problem, not an xbmc problem
[10:01] <AwwwCrap> but I'll give it a shot anyway
[10:01] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, RHEL ?!
[10:01] <koshieFinalReliz> Or CentOS ?
[10:01] <koshieFinalReliz> RHEL are for entreprise, and it's not free of cost.
[10:01] <coolforyou> yes kos RHEL or centos
[10:01] <koshieFinalReliz> ^^
[10:01] <koshieFinalReliz> CentOS are the same distribution with a name and a different logo, but completly free of cost.
[10:02] <knightstalker> Hey,wiki.ubuntu.com doesn't load up in chrome and loads up in firefox,and that was the same for a long time now,and in every ubuntu installation I had,any ideas?
[10:02] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, Ubuntu / Debian have somes difference with RHEL / CentOS :)
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> AwwwCrap: if the joystick works in emulators and such then its an xbmc config, surely?
[10:02] <knightstalker> koshieFinalReliz,you can always try Fedora
[10:02] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, My advice : Try Ubuntu if you really want to use it everyday, it's free, simple, powerfull.
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> koshieFinalReliz: it is, you just won't get support
[10:02] <coolforyou> yes kos . many told me debian is best for server
[10:02] <knightstalker> Its free,but its a kind of test place for RHEL
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> koshieFinalReliz: you can run RHL, maybe not RHEL ;)
[10:03] <koshieFinalReliz> knightstalker, it's good too, but a little bit updated for a new user.
[10:03] <koshieFinalReliz> RHL exist ? :o
[10:03] <knightstalker> koshieFinalReliz,yup :p
[10:03] <koshieFinalReliz> That's not RHEL
[10:03] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, yes, better than Ubuntu IMHO
[10:03] <koshieFinalReliz> But Ubuntu can make a good server :)
[10:03] <coolforyou> yes action , i completly agree with you . i will not use RHEL and RHL . but will give a try to debian and centos
[10:03] <knightstalker> Ubuntu LTS can make a good server =)
[10:03] <knightstalker> so,no idea on my question?
[10:04] <hostdream> even I'm using the http://pastie.org/2496275 as partition table in my preseed, I've the box asking me for the confirmation to apply disk layout, how can I avoid this ?
[10:04] <ne2k> sorry, I left for a few minutes to try a reboot. did anyone reply about my alsa issue? I have repeated the fix for 2.6.38-11 but I still have no sound
[10:04] <coolforyou> but i am comple noob in linux . so i wanted to start with ubuntu , it is good idea ?
[10:04] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, Maybe we can speak in private ? Some people here seems to needs help and for you know it's just some details.
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> coolforyou: yes, a lot of stuff is managed for you
[10:04] <knightstalker> coolforyou,for a new user,Ubuntu is best
[10:05] <koshieFinalReliz> knightstalker, not in all case, you've Mandriva / Mageïa :)
[10:05] <coolforyou> thats fine action , knight and kos
[10:05] <koshieFinalReliz> coolforyou, you can complete automatically nickname, try kos and tab touch

[10:08] <snufft> anyone got a min to spare helping me setup my local webserver? apache is going (haven't figured out vhosts yet tho), phpmyadmin is running fine, as is mysql. the only thing left are creating vhosts and editing hosts file, then setting write permission on my var/www folder so i can actually edit it without sudo-ing all the time.
[10:09] <amoskong> hello,  do we need hit 'shift' for inputing '_' ?

[10:10] <robinduckett> oh that I have no idea
[10:10] <AwwwCrap> ActionParsnip: thanks, I was trying to do it at the xorg level because I wasn't aware it was configurable within XBMC
[10:11] <knightstalker> koshieFinalReliz, I never liked RPM based distros,though!
[10:11] <koshieFinalReliz> Me too.

[10:20] <vibhav> aceking. download font , click onit and then click on install
[10:21] <AceKing> szal, vibhav, Thanks!
[10:21] <vibhav> no prob
[10:22] <KNUBBIG> pf my kb just stopped working ... maybe macs aren't that stable at all :)
[10:22] <w123> can I make friend with you?
[10:23] <w123> I am chinese
[10:23] <oCean> !cn | w123
[10:23] <Skandee> having problems with my wireless connection at school, can't join the network and i don't know why. At home it works fine and  if i use widows at school iit works,  can sombody help me please
[10:25] <knightstalker> !Mplayer
[10:25] <knightstalker> !MPlayer
[10:25] <zHammeRz> Skandee, you need the wireless password from your school admins
[10:26] <oCean> knightstalker: you can use the bot in private: /msg ubottu info mplayer
[10:27] <Skandee> it isn't password protectet..
[10:27] <KNUBBIG> Skandee: maybe protected based on MACs?
[10:27] <knightstalker> oCean:O rly? :p "<ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mplayer"
[10:28] <Skandee> I don't think so. We've all got a password, and when we connect to the network and try to open google.com (eg) then we're asked for the password on a website
[10:28] <oCean> knightstalker: searching for packages, you need the word 'info'  ( /msg ubottu info mplayer )
[10:28] <knightstalker> Hmm,is it possible that you cant be online on two computers?
[10:28] <Skandee> When I click to connect the network, then it works and works, but doesn't connect
[10:29] <Skandee> I have dual boot...
[10:29] <knightstalker> oCean:you missed the point,No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer. For the official ubuntu font
[10:29] <knightstalker> I wanted to find out about fonts not packages
[10:30] <oCean> knightstalker: oh, a bug in the !fonts factoid. Let me try and fix that
[10:30] <knightstalker> oCean,thanks ;)
[10:31] <Strav> Hi. I'm experiencing several troubles with unity's launchers so I'm wondering (haven't check launchpad yet but these problems are so obvious I can't believe they still apply): 1. If I search for an application and drag it to the launcher's bar, sometimes it works, sometimes it don't (more especially if I decided to remove and the place again the application in the launcher). 2. when a new launcher is added, sometimes new instances of
[10:31] <Strav> the application are bound to the launcher, sometimes they are not (hence, duplicated). 3. If I manually edit a .desktop, it automatically gets removed from the launcher (even if I do something as simple as change the icon path).
[10:32] <Strav> Is there any accessible config file I can check to see why everything is so messed up with my unity?
[10:33] <tasslehoff> My X has gone mad display-wise. How do I recreate an X configuration from my HW?
[10:33] <tasslehoff> on 10.10
[10:33] <Strav> tasslehoff: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[10:34] <tasslehoff> Strav: thx
[10:34] <taia> hello community :D
[10:35] <vibhav> hello taia
[10:35] <w123> good evening
[10:35] <Skandee> I think we could you our private pcs too, so I don't think it's the AC
[10:35] <Skandee> *MAC
[10:36] <taia> a friend of mine recently asked me a question, he said he has a alfa awus036h wireless modem that is connected via USB interface, he said he can't use it, I googled it and everyone says ubuntu recognize that modem fine,,,,,what should i tell him? :D
[10:36] <vibhav> taia could be a driver issue
[10:36] <daParall4x> Anyone know a good programming/coding IRC channel>
[10:36] <daParall4x> ?
[10:37] <robinduckett> daParall4x: depends what kind of coding
[10:37] <Strav> taia: that there's a place called google.com
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> taia: run:  lsusb     use the 8 character hex ID to find guides?
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> daParall4x: ##C
[10:37] <taia> vibhav, I told him so, I even asked him to patch the driver into kernel, but still no response!
[10:37] <vibhav> !google | strav
[10:38] <oCean> daParall4x: there is the ##programming channel
[10:38] <daParall4x> but it says i need to get registered?
[10:38] <oCean> !register | daParall4x
[10:38] <daParall4x> sorry im new to irc
[10:38] <daParall4x> okay, thanks.
[10:38] <Strav> vibhav: nah it's just that the guy said "he can't use it" while it's being recognized as a supported device.
[10:40] <sveinse> When writing a package, how does a package request a reboot of the system? I often see kernel updates which gives a red icon in gnome telling me to reboot due to an upgrade
[10:41] <Strav> ah. If there was a programming channel where it'll be possible to casually discuss of one's idea... that'll be ideal. Unfortunately no such thing exists.
[10:41] <taia> in fact, the device has a confusing process of use in Windows! they should use integrated wireless modem in the laptop to find available network, then using an application called IBSDriver, the connection gets transferred  to this external modem!!! this process seems rediculous in ubunu
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> sveinse: the reboot insn't mandatory, it's just wanting to make you reboot to load the nwe kernel. Or do you have a package you are creating and want to add that feature?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> taia: suprised it connects via usb, most use ethernet which is much more graceful
[10:42] <jpds> sveinse: Look at the source for the kernel package?
[10:43] <taia> ActionParsnip, yeah, but this one is using USB :P I hate it when it comes to USB issues too :P
[10:43] <jpds> sveinse: Or: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/update-notifier
[10:43] <sveinse> jpds: Excellent, thanks
[10:44] <mouse> I'm running firefox and I can't get it to open .rar files with my archive manager by default or even optionally.  I've added file-roller manually but it only seems to be temporary since it still won't let the archive manager be an option in the drop down menu.  Does anyone have experience with this?
[10:45] <solofight> help needed people when i try to update my system using sudo apt-get install update  i get this error http://pastebin.com/jZsS8gCA
[10:45] <solofight> searched in ubuntu forums and they have said to delete the file and again update
[10:45] <daParall4x> registered
[10:45] <daParall4x> thanks
[10:45] <solofight> did the same by doing an rm on that file
[10:45] <solofight> and again tried to update
[10:45] <solofight> it results in the same error
[10:45] <solofight> dont know how else to proceed
[10:46] <mouse> Use punctuation marks instead of enter.
[10:46] <Strav> Can anyone tell why, in some cases, new applications instances aren't bound to their launchers in unity on 11.04?
[10:47] <solofight> mouse, sorry will do
[10:47] <glebihan> solofight, first thing the command "sudo apt-get install update" will never work, it should be either "sudo apt-get update" or "sudo apt-get install packagename"
[10:49] <glebihan> solofight, so what does "sudo apt-get update" say ?
[10:49] <solofight> glebihan, yeah mistake
[10:49] <solofight> glebihan, http://pastebin.com/jZsS8gCA
[10:49] <Strav> is there some .desktop entry I'm missing?
[10:49] <TheRandom> Hi, typing 'apt-get install lynx' for example tells me how large the install is etc etc when I tell it to go ahead it gives me 'Something wicked happened resolving 'gb...'' errors? Internet connection is fine.
[10:50] <glebihan> solofight, that's the same command, could you pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get update" (will probably be the same, but may be better to check anyway)
[10:50] <solofight> glebihan, the same error even when i correct the command
[10:51] <Strav> TheRandom: try a ping on the repository that gives you the resolving error. Then if it works, try to access it's packages directory from your browser.
[10:51] <TheRandom> ping'ing google gives an unknown host error.
[10:51] <TheRandom> I've ssh'd into it so I can't use the browser
[10:52] <solofight> glebihan, i read a post which said to remove the entire directory and try again so did this http://pastebin.com/imnLz4WY
[10:52] <solofight> but no good, eneded up with error
[10:52] <solofight> ended*
[10:52] <Strav> TheRandom: just by chance: what does ifconfig gives you for <IP_ADDRESS>?
[10:52] <Strav> TheRandom: (do you have the lo interface enabled?)
[10:53] <TheRandom> error fetching interface information: device not found
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[10:53] <TheRandom> Strav, unsure
[10:53] <Strav> TheRandom: that's your problem.
[10:53] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, I can
[10:53] <glebihan> solofight, try "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*" then "sudo apt-get update" again
[10:53] <Strav> TheRandom: try: sudo ifconfig lo up
[10:53] <TheRandom> Strav, the network adaptor isn't being picked up?
[10:54] <TheRandom> strav, ran it, no output.
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> solofight: http://pastebin.com/pY1h7LNY
[10:54] <Strav> there's no output usually, but then ifconfig to see if it came back up
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: then if you run:  gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf     delete ALL text and add the line:  nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>     save the new file and close gedit, does the web work ok?
[10:54] <solofight> ActionParsnip, i need to execute all of those one by one ?
[10:55] <TheRandom> Several lines explaining network adaptors
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> solofight: yes
[10:55] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, there was no text in the file, I've added the line.
[10:55] <TheRandom> Pinging google has found a host, and responds :)
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: should be ok, usually that file gets updated by network manager tpe apps (like network-manager and wicd)
[10:56] <TheRandom> apt-get install runs.
[10:56] <Onlyodin> Should hope so, that's google's DNS ;)
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: cool, do you use GUI network apps?
[10:56] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, no, not knowingly.
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> Onlyodin: I only use it because its easy to remember
[10:56] <TheRandom> Onlyodin, I realised after searching :P
[10:56] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, so as I understand what occured. My nameserver wasn't available to the server?
[10:56] <Antrax2000> hi, im dual-booting ubuntu with arch linux, ubuntu as the primary os. the problem is grub2 tells me that arch boot partition in in /dev/sda5 but actually it's in /dev/sda1. i tried update-grub and still grub got my arch partition wrong, can someone help? thanks
[10:57] <Strav> TheRandom: yep
[10:57] <TheRandom> Strav, thank's.
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: ok get fully updated and reboot, see if it stays. If not, we can take extra steps to make it be set each time. The combination of driver/nic and router are making your OS fail to get DNS settings via DHCP (probably some netgear rubbish)
[10:57] <TheRandom> How did you know ActionParsnip  :P
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: so we need to work around it by setting the DNS servers manually
[10:57] <TheRandom> I'll set it to reboot
[10:58] <Strav> TheRandom: due to the lack of your loopback interface which got screwed
[10:58] <solofight> glebihan, same error
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: because you couldn't ping names (needs DNS) so I had you ping a known IP and it worked. Ergo, DNS is failing
[10:58] <solofight> will try ActionParsnip solution
[10:58] <glebihan> solofight, did you run the commands ActionParsnip gave you ?
[10:58] <solofight> doing them as we speak
[10:59] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, that makes alarming sense :P
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using.html  shows how to set it in Ubuntu
[10:59] <solofight> ActionParsnip, whats the reason for such happening ?
[10:59] <TheRandom> As you forsaw ActionParsnip it has failed again.
[10:59] <solofight> bug in ubuntu ?
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> solofight: the apt thing? No idea. I only know the fix
[11:00] <solofight> ok
[11:00] <solofight> in process of executing the first command
[11:00] <Strav> ActionParsnip: why didn't he had any interfaces to begin with? (I didn't had this problem once or twice)
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: if you install dnsmasq and set the first dns server to <IP_ADDRESS>  you can make name resoles take 0ms rather than ~30ms
[11:01] <Strav> I did had...
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Strav: no idea, didn't see that bit. Just saw the ping stuff
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: you never know, updates may just make it work as it should, meaning you don't need to manually set stuff
[11:02] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip: installed dnsmasq.
[11:02] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip: It's interesting as lots of things seemed to fail overnight, ftp, ssh, DNS.
[11:02] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip: there were no changes on the server bar apt-get upgrade.
[11:02] <damo22> ActionParsnip: that doesnt make sense, wouldnt the dns server on localhost still have to ask a real dns for the ip if its not cached?
[11:03] <Strav> ActionParsnip: when I asked him to do an ifconfig... ah I see, he did ifconfig <IP_ADDRESS>...
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: you need to tell dnsmasq to listen to <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> damo22: initialy, yes but it learns the resolutions over time
[11:03] <damo22> ok
[11:04] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, whats the syntax for that? -a --localhost?
[11:04] <mouse> I'm running firefox and I can't get it to open .rar files with my archive manager by default or even optionally.  I've added file-roller manually but it only seems to be temporary since it still won't let archive manager be an option in the drop down menu.  Does anyone have experience with this?
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: gksudo gedit /etc/dnsmasq.conf      find     listen-address=     and change it to    listen-address=<IP_ADDRESS>
[11:04] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip: done.
[11:04] <Kartagis> does server RAM have anything to do with page loadings being slow?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: after reboot it will apply, then you can change the DNS servers as teh google link I gave says, but set DNS to:  <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:05] <TheRandom> Kartagis, only if the RAM is full ;)
[11:05] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip: in resolv.conf?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: yes but have each on it's own line
[11:05] <TheRandom> yup done that. Rebooting.
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> mouse: sudo apt-get install rar unrar p7zip-full unp
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: GL
[11:06] <damo22> Actionparsnip: what are those special addresses?
[11:06] <Kartagis> TheRandom: MemTotal:      1048800 kB
[11:06] <Kartagis> MemFree:        434544 kB
[11:06] <mouse> ActionParsnip, Thank you.
[11:06] <solofight> ActionParsnip, after finishing the commands present till line 8 i executed line 9 command and got the error http://pastebin.com/RX55FkcG
[11:06] <solofight> how to proceed ?
[11:07] <TheRandom> Kartagis, that sounds fine. HTTP page loads?
[11:07] <Kartagis> TheRandom: yep
[11:07] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, no dice. Reboot gives me unknown host errors...
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> solofight: could disable the extras repo, or change server to the main server, or GB server
[11:07] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: i just installed "sudo apt-get install rar unrar p7zip-full unp" and when i go to the file and rightclick open with unrar nothing happends at all.. :s
[11:07] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, and the resolv.conf has been wiped clean.
[11:07] <solofight> ActionParsnip, how to do that ?
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: ok, use the guide I gave earlier. The network manager app will populate resolv.conf for you
[11:08] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: also if i try to open any movie with VLC it doesn't play.
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> solofight: in software centre
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> !codecs | PoSV
[11:08] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, the google link?
[11:08] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: not even about codec the file actually wont even open, it just sits the same with unrar..
[11:08] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: like nothing is opening at all :s
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: the one I gave earlier...
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> PoSV: run vlc from terminal, the output may help
[11:10] <testing1234> test
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> PoSV: also try other players, like gnome-mplayer :)
[11:10] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, I'm looking, but I can only see a link to code.google.com which doesn't include setting permenant nameservers.
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using.html
[11:10] <html> rrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! sfvoujb  im getting poked
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: yes, that's what oyou need as yours aren't being set
[11:10] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, "Additionally, if you are using DHCP client software that overwrites the settings in /etc/resolv.conf, you will need to set up the client accordingly by editing the client's configuration file."
[11:11] <bazhang> html, wrong channel
[11:11] <TheRandom> I set them in resolv.conf, and when I reboot it's been overwritten
[11:11] <solofight> ActionParsnip, removed ticks from all under other software tab, now again start from first command or just update command ?
[11:11] <htmlinprogress> bazhang,  for what ? my name was at the end of every statment
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: yes, tht's why you need the guide, the GUI app you are using to configure networking (network manager is default in ubuntu) is overwriting the file, so you need that guide to tell it what to write to the file as it isn't being recieved by DHCP
[11:12] <tarelerulz> I try to send files to my pc via blue tooth ,but nothing happens.   What could the problem be
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: if it DID then the app would write whatever it recieved but it isn't so it blanks the file
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: that's why I gave the link. It explains how you can tell it the DNS servers.
[11:12] <snufft> jrib: thanks :)
[11:12] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: gnome-mplayer play .flv/
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> solofight: sure, after closing software centre as it will lock the packages
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> PoSV: yes
[11:13] <TheRandom> ActionParsnip, I'm a div I was looking under Debian, however I'm sshing into the server, so do you know how to do this via terminal?
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: not sure there. I think there is nm-cli but I've never used it. You could set it for now in resolv.conf manually and when you next physically attend the system (or can get someone else to) you can setup the app there
[11:14] <solofight> ActionParsnip, closed software center, and again gave sudo apt-get update  and got this error http://pastebin.com/UADn2g83
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> TheRandom: if you use a wired connection and nothing smart like VPN etc, you can remove network manager and use /etc/network/interfaces to setup addressing etc and then you can edit resolv.conf and it will not get blanked at boot
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> solofight: I'd try a little later (or try a different server again). Not sure there. Maybe others can advise
[11:16] <mouse> ActionParsnip, All the packages you've mentioned are installed and I restarted firefox and I still can't get it to use an archive manager by default or to even have an archive manager as an option in the drop down menu.
[11:16] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: i just tried unrar l file.rar and it asks for a password; is that unrar asking for a password or the .rar?
[11:17] <glebihan> solofight, doesn't look like you changed the mirror, did you ?
[11:17] <damo22> TheRandom: theres a guide on how to do it on the link ActionParsnip provided earlier... you have to edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[11:17] <Stanley00> PoSV: unrar is asking, .rar cant ;)
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> PoSV: the file is password protected
[11:17] <solofight> glebihan, i disabled all ticks from second tab. now i regognised ActionParsnip was talking about the option in 1st tab called server :( my bad
[11:17] <PoSV> ActionParsnip: ffs, i don't remember hte password lol
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> mouse: not sure man, I don't use firefox
[11:18] <damo22> PoSV: looks like youre in trouble
[11:18] <solofight> glebihan, even after closing software center when i do a update on terminal it says locked
[11:18] <mouse> ActionParsnip, You use chromium?
[11:18] <solofight> all i have is chrome and firefox and this opened
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> mouse: chromium daily and Arora
[11:19] <glebihan> solofight, once you've changed the mirror, start over with the commands ActionParsnip gave you
[11:19] <solofight> glebihan, ok
[11:20] <mouse> ActionParsnip, Well thanks anyways.
[11:22] <taky> anyone familiar with ip-forwarding?
[11:22] <imadam> Bye!
[11:22] <ichbinder> hello. A problem with grep in SVN folders: when I do $ grep -R "bla" * --exclude="*.svn*" it ignores some of the .svn folders but not all. Does somebody else have the same experience and if so, why is that? It seems that ignores the .svn for the first folder grep get's in but not for all, or something like that.
[11:25] <Stanley00> ichbinder: maybe you should try --exclude-dir=PATTERN
[11:25] <geirha> ichbinder: I use this function instead. svngrep() { find . -name .svn -prune -o -type f -exec grep "$@" /dev/null {} +; }
[11:25] <damo22> ichbinder: find . \! \( -iname "*.svn" \) | xargs grep PATTERN
[11:26] <ichbinder> Stanley00: oh, damn it... thanks for no RTFM... :-/
[11:26] <Stanley00> ichbinder: you are welcome ;)
[11:27] <ichbinder> thanks geirha and damo22.
[11:27] <geirha> ichbinder: To use it, remember to omit -r/-R. E.g.: svngrep -w my_func
[11:29] <geirha> damo22: That doesn't really do what ichbinder is asking.
[11:30] <houdini> Hello, I am a NOOB! Can some one please help me change permission settings
[11:30] <ichbinder> geirha, damo22: yeah... geirha: why not using the --exclude-dir option?
[11:31] <Stanley00> houdini: chmod is what you need then?
[11:31] <IamTrying> 11.04 using terminal how can i disable this  "Lock screen + screensaver " ?
[11:31] <Stanley00> houdini: or, simply right-click on file/folder and look in tab permission.
[11:32] <geirha> ichbinder: That's a GNU grep option, I sometimes need to do that on non GNU systems.
[11:32] <_kBz_> houdini: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[11:32] <ichbinder> geirha: ah, ok. Thanks. :)
[11:33] <geirha> ichbinder: Though --exclude-dir=.svn should work afaik.
[11:33] <ichbinder> geirha: yeah, on my ubuntu, it's working just fine... it was just the small difference between --exclude and --exclude-dir

[11:36] <damo22> hostdream: the last line says confirm = true?
[11:37] <hostdream> damo22 : the last line of my preseed is d-i partman/confirm boolean true

[11:38] <pete-joh> hi, im trying to create a daemon, i can start it with start-stop-daemon, but i cannot stop it with start-stop-daemon, the daemon creates a pid file in /var/run/daemonfilename.pid, the file contains the daemon process id, what can be wrong o_O?
[11:38] <hostdream> I thought it was the other way, we tell install to automatically confirm damo22
[11:38] <hostdream> damo22 : let me test again
[11:38] <ZenMaster> Ahhh.
[11:38] <ZenMaster> Anyone here framiliar with controlling fan speed?
[11:38] <damo22> hostdream: confirm = true means you want the system to ask a question imho

[11:39] <ZenMaster> And now I can't get it to slow down. :*(
[11:39] <hostdream> damo22 : i will confirm you this in 5 min
[11:40] <jamiewan> ZenMaster: how did u adjust it the first time?
[11:41] <tarelerulz> join #xbmc
[11:41] <hostdream> damo22 : no, this is not working ... I did set it to "false" but I still have the popup asking for confirmation...
[11:41] <ZenMaster> jamiewan: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fan_Speed_Control
[11:42] <pete-joh> how do you know if a process is detached from a terminal?
[11:43] <pete-joh> is there a command you can enter to find that out?
[11:43] <ZenMaster> I was trying to raise thef an devisor because it is saying there is no rpms.
[11:43] <jamiewan> ZenMaster: yeah i'm not sure, i fiddled with lmsensors for my conky setup but thats it. Maybe a reboot or check BIOS for fan control options if that doesn't work
[11:43] <ZenMaster> Or detecting zero.
[11:43] <zimbres> hi, All directories of my home directory are appearing in my Desktop, haow can I get rid of them? If I remove the icon them the directory is also removed. Ubuntu 11.04
[11:43] <ZenMaster> pete-joh: ps -aux
[11:44] <pete-joh> ZenMaster: great, thats the output for detached processes?
[11:44] <jrib> zimbres: please pastebin ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[11:44] <pete-joh> ZenMaster: what should i be looking for
[11:44] <ZenMaster> pete-joh: ps -aux will show you all processes.
[11:45] <jrib> pete-joh: "jobs" will list the process your terminal is handling
[11:45] <ZenMaster> pete-joh: For instance I would do something like #>ps -aux |more (So you can see about 25 procs at a time).
[11:45] <ZenMaster> pete-joh: Or ps -aux |grep Gayporn (That would show you all procs with gay porn in the title).
[11:46] <jrib> ZenMaster: please choose more appropriate examples...
[11:46] <ZenMaster> Brb I have to restart this machine. So much for uptime. I don't want the cpu fan waking my lady.
[11:46] <ZenMaster> jrib: Absolutely no problem.
[11:46] <ZenMaster> Brb.

[11:47] <jrib> zimbres: anything seem funny to you?
[11:47] <krastin> anybody know how to make the unity launcher display running programs from the current workspace only?
[11:48] <zimbres> jrib: yes, i have removed most default directories because I do not like to name that way. But the question is why my directorys are being diplayed on the Desktop screnn
[11:49] <jrib> zimbres: look ate the value for DESKTOP
[11:49] <solofight> people help i changed to main server and entered the commands one by one and whe i do the update this error occurs http://pastebin.com/index/UADn2g83
[11:50] <zimbres> jrib: ok, I will edit the file, I did not know it
[11:51] <zHammeRz> where do you see where the linkspeed of a nic is in Ubuntu 11?
[11:51] <zimbres> jrib: Can I just remove lines I do not want?
[11:52] <jrib> zimbres: you probably don't want to do that as programs will often ask things like "where is the directory for videos?" and XDG_VIDEOS_DIR will be the answer it receives.  Just set some values you prefer
[11:53] <jrib> zimbres: you can make the value whatever you want (as long as you enter it in the format described in the formats at the top of the file)
[11:53] <hostdream> Can anyone tell me what is wrong in my preseed disk layout http://pastie.org/2496275 that doing a popup appearing during the install process and asking me if I'm ok to write to disk ? I really want to avoid that... :)
[11:54] <zimbres> jrib: ok, but anyway I do not need a template directory for example
[11:54] <zimbres> jrib: or a publicshare dir
[11:55] <snufft> can someone tell me if the example under the NameVirtualHost is correct for vhosts in apache? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-create-name-based-and-ip-based-virtual-hosts-in-apache.html
[11:55] <jrib> zimbres: I do not know what the effect of just deleting the value is (it may be restored or it may not)
[11:55] <snufft> shouldn't it be enclosed or something to separate vhost entries?
[11:55] <jrib> zimbres: if it's restored, it's probably restored according to: /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults
[11:56] <zimbres> How do I minimize all windown to have a view of my Desktop on Unity. on later version there was a button on the botton left side of the screen.
[11:56] <pzn> at 11.4 login screen, there is no option "brazilian portuguese utf-8", I can only see iso-8859-1 option. what is wrong, how can I add the utf-8 option?
[11:56] <robinduckett> zimbres: Windows/Super key + D
[11:57] <zimbres> jrib: ok, i do most of my work on the terminal and i do not like to see these directories every time I ls
[11:58] <zimbres> robinduckett: thanks, I need to read more about unity.
[12:00] <pete-joh> jrib: hm, my daemon does not show up under jobs, does it gurantee that it runs as a detached process?
[12:01] <pete-joh> jrib: i can see the process with ps aux
[12:01] <jrib> pete-joh: yes
[12:01] <pete-joh> jrib: epic
[12:01] <pete-joh> jrib: the TTY column says its running as ?
[12:01] <pete-joh> jrib: instead of ttyX/ptsX
[12:02] <pete-joh> jrib: any ideas why i cannot stop the daemon  with start-stop-daemon commadn?
[12:02] <jrib> pete-joh: I am not familiar with start-stop-daemon
[12:02] <jrib> pete-joh: I would start by investigating how start-stop-daemon tries to stop the process... and seeing how the process responds to different signals
[12:02] <pete-joh> jrib: its the function that /etc/init.d/scripts call when they start and stop daemons
[12:03] <pete-joh> jrib: yea, i can stop the daemon by sending kill TERM, the daemon listens to that kill signal
[12:03] <pete-joh> jrib: but i have no idea about the internal functions in start-stop-daemon
[12:04] <jrib> pete-joh: I would read start-stop-daemon documentation and source code at this point
[12:04] <pete-joh> jrib: also, i cannot use 'pgrep <tab> to list the daemon'
[12:04] <pete-joh> jrib: i fear that the daemon isnt completely daemonized

[12:11] <nicofs_> I am having extreme network issues (wifi) - can someone help? I regularly get disconnected and at some point all I get is "No Networks found", when there should be about 15. Dmesg looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/684343/
[12:11] <nicofs_> (if i posted that twice, sorry - i just don't know if the first post arrived...)
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> nicofs_: disable ipv6
[12:12] <alphonso89> hello
[12:12] <alphonso89> anyone here
[12:12] <Hyperbyte> !ask | alphonso89
[12:12] <nicofs_> ActionParsnip, where can I do this?
[12:13] <alphonso89> i want to install ubuntu side by side with my windows 7
[12:13] <alphonso89> when i first tried to load it with my usb, i could select the install side by side option and I chose it
[12:13] <don-i> is it possible to pipe the output of ls into a text file thats in someone elses home directory ?
[12:13] <don-i> i tried with sudo, and it wont let me do that either
[12:14] <Hyperbyte> don-i, only if you have write access to it.
[12:14] <alphonso89> however it was isntalling and I got an error and it returned me to the selection menu but this time there was only 2 options left. either delete windows 7 or other options
[12:14] <jrib> don-i: command | sudo tee file
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> nicofs_: run:   gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub    find the line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"   and change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash ipv6.disable=1"    save the new file, close gedit then run:   sudo update-grub     reboot to test. You could have EASILY found that out yourself using websearches, leaving me free to help otehrs.
[12:14] <zykotick9> don-i, fyi if you are using an actual pipe "|", sudo can't... see jrib above
[12:14] <alphonso89> i rebooted severtimes and it was still the same
[12:14] <alphonso89> several
[12:15] <alphonso89> is there anyway i can install side by side :(?
[12:15] <RealAndy> Does anyone know how to setup access to GoogleTalk from pidgin on ubuntu, I get "404 Remote server not found" whenever i query the GoogleTalk user directory?
[12:16] <marenostrum> alphonso89, Did you have an empty partition? such as D, E etc. in Windows?
[12:16] <nicofs_> ActionParsnip, the disabling thing or that ipv6 is the issue?
[12:16] <alphonso89> nah i only have 2 partition. 1 with windows inside and another 1 with backup recovery
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> nicofs_: the disabling thing
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> RealAndy: http://www.rakshitk.com/blog/2008/01/26/how-to-configure-pidgin-to-work-with-google-talk/
[12:16] <don-i> jrib, brilliant
[12:17] <don-i> Hyperbyte, zykotick9, jrib  thanks
[12:17] <don-i> i should see what 'tee' does..never used that before
[12:17] <marenostrum> alphonso89, L didn't install Uvbuntu side by side with Win 7 but did it side by side with XP on my brother-in-law's machine. There was no problem.
[12:17] <jrib> don-i: other way is to do « sudo -i » (you get a root prompt), redirect output from ls like you normally would using '>', then exiting once you are done
[12:18] <RealAndy> ActionParsnip: thanks
[12:18] <alphonso89> yea there shouldnt be any problem
[12:18] <alphonso89> i mean ive installed it several times before on this laptop as well
[12:18] <alphonso89> side by side windows 7 but it was ubuntu 10.04 and this time im using ubuntu 11.10 beta
[12:18] <marenostrum> alphonso89, Did you have an empty partition other than where Win is installed (typically C)?
[12:19] <alphonso89> marenostrum, nope. i only have 1 with windows 7 inside and another 1 with backup recovery
[12:19] <don-i> jrib, good to know !
[12:20] <The_Rufus> help!!!! I've had my server working fine for a few weeks, nothing has changed at all, but now when I "sudo" a command it tells me my username is not in the sudoers list!!!! I can't administer my computer!!!!!!!
[12:20] <marenostrum> alphonso89, I am not an expert on dual booting (installing side by side) but as far as I know, the first point is to prepare an empty partion.
[12:21] <marenostrum> alphonso89, Most probably, Ubuntu did what you said because it coludn't see an empty partition.
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> The_Rufus: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root, then run:  usermod -a -G admin foo        change foo to your username, reboot and the foo user can use sudo etc
[12:21] <alphonso89> mareno, okay but i just want to know if i did anything wrong.
[12:22] <alphonso89> mareno, i was able to install side by side before :(
[12:22] <Dice-Man> Dice-Man: !vns | supercilious
[12:22] <Dice-Man> Dice-Man: !vnc | supercilious
[12:22] <Dice-Man> lol
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: Win7 can resize it's own partitions, you can then boot the Ubuntu CD and install to the new free space
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: I recommend ou
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> you*
[12:23] <rizzo__> quick question, need to install apache 2.2.20, found it here http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/319714, how can i install that using apt-get?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: you run a FULL backup in case of catastrophe
[12:23] <rizzo__> release: lucid
[12:23] <alphonso89> actionparsnip, you are saying that i resize it inside windows then i install ubuntu?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: yes, Win7 can resize it's own NTFS partition
[12:23] <alphonso89> actionparsnip, can windows do dynamic partition as well?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: the free space can be then used to install Ubuntu to
[12:23] <marenostrum> alphonso89, On Win 7, I believe its easy yo create new partitions. Create one and delete all inside it and try to install Ubuntu side by side. (As I said, I'm not an expert on this issue.)
[12:23] <alphonso89> actionparsnip, yea i already backed up. thanks
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: that I am not sure of. I just know it can shrink stuff
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> !afk > Jef91|AFK
[12:24] <alphonso89> actionparsnip, okay thanks guys. i think that should be the only way :(
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> alphonso89: it's the way I'd do it. But then again I don't use crappy Windows
[12:24] <Sidewinder1> ActionParsnip, When win7 resizes/shrinks it's own partition, does it also defragment?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> Sidewinder1: no idea. More than likely ;)
[12:25] <uno1> hola ,cual es el canal en español???
[12:25] <marenostrum> alphonso89, If you have backup, its nice, don't worry and resize and create a new partition. Do this from Windows OS, I'd say. Then go on as usual.
[12:25] <Hyperbyte> !es > uno1
[12:25] <Sidewinder1> ActionParsnip, Should and win, shouldn't be used in the same sentence?
[12:26] <Sidewinder1> :-)
[12:26] <alphonso89> okay thanks guys. i will try. :) i use windows for gaming? because most games are there only
[12:26] <alphonso89> hahaha
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> Sidewinder1: BAM
[12:26] <hostdream> Can anyone tell me what is wrong in my preseed disk layout http://pastie.org/2496275 that doing a popup appearing during the install process and asking me if I'm ok to write to disk ? I really want to avoid that... :)
[12:27] <Sidewinder1> alphonso89, Just in case, defrag your C:\ prior to shrinking/resizing.
[12:27] <alphonso89> sidewinder, okay. does that affect it?
[12:27] <ne2k> I have no sound after doing some updates and a reboot in Ubuntu. have tried the fix here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+question/166005 which worked last time this happened, but hasn't worked this time. ppa:team-iquik/alsa seems to have vanished.
[12:27] <ne2k> report here http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=087b7cbe3383b329e9561e5c8323f0a5d017dc49
[12:27] <marenostrum> alphonso89, And as usual, check your installation media against defects. At least check if its working well as a live media (CD or USB stick).
[12:28] <alphonso89> okay. i will do that
[12:28] <luc__> hi can anybody tell me how  install a pc game iso image file
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: is the correct sound device selected as the output device?
[12:28] <marenostrum> alphonso89, Good luck! I believe that there won't be a trouble.
[12:28] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: yes
[12:28] <Sidewinder1> alphonso89, It can't hurt; and if win7 doesn't automayically do it, when resizing, you'll save yourself a multitude of problems.
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: if you run; alsamixer    are all leverls unmuted and cranked?
[12:28] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: pavucontrol shows the meter going up and down but no sound comes out
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: is it a laptop?
[12:29] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: no, desktop
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: speakers powered and connected and volume up?
[12:29] <HisRoyalFreshnes> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1840020
[12:30] <marenostrum> Sidewinder1, he says he uses it for games. Some of my relatives dual boot too and they use that OS for games as well.
[12:30] <alphonso89> thanks guys. okay.
[12:30] <rizzo__> trying to install apache ver >= 2.2.18.. any suggestions
[12:30] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: I am not a complete idiot, btw, I have checked all of these things. the problem occurred after upgrading the kernel, and, as I said, I have had this problem once before (where alsa driver and alsautils were out of sync), and last time, upgrading fixed it, but this time, it has not
[12:30] <alphonso89> yea i defrag it everynow and then. i would like to use ubuntu for gaming but most games are on windows
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: I can't assume that so I start with the basic stuff.
[12:31] <Giac0m0> Is there already a ubuntu implemetation of the sandbox that you can find in Fedora en RHEL?
[12:31] <Sidewinder1> marenostrum, Even though I rarely 'game', I'm ashamed to admit that I still dual-boot; since 2007. :-(
[12:31] <Giac0m0> rizzo__: troubles?
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: ok try the natty command at this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure
[12:31] <alphonso89> sidewinder if you dont dual boot for gafmes then what?
[12:31] <rizzo__> Giac0m0: found a package but not repo https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/apache2/2.2.20-1ubuntu1
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> rizzo__: that's for oneiric
[12:32] <marenostrum> Sidewinder1, I can't say anything more after this confession! :))
[12:32] <alphonso89> mareno hahahahah
[12:32] <Pici> rizzo__: Why do you need a newer version of apache2?
[12:32] <rizzo__> Pici: lame pci compliance
[12:33] <rizzo__> how can i install the oneiric one, or better yet is there a lucid one?
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> rizzo__: mixing debs between releases is not advised or supported. I suggest you upgrade to oneiric (or find a 3rd party PPA)
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | rizzo__
[12:33] <javier_> Hi. I'm in ubuntu, but some applications, like firefox are using dolphin instead of nautilus (I got dolphin when I installed digikam). How can I change back to nautilus=
[12:33] <javier_> ?
[12:33] <rizzo__> ActionParsnip: upgrading to Oneiric sounds like a better option, no?
[12:34] <rizzo__> its beta?
[12:34] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: the one I used before (linked in that launchpad URL) had a team-iquik/alsa ppa, which now seems to have vanished
[12:34] <asdjaputra> rizzo__, yes, beta
[12:34] <Pici> rizzo__: PCI compliance shouldn't require you to have a specific version.  The apache2 packages in the repositories  have been patched against CVE-2011-3192, if thats what you're worried about.
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> rizzo__: its more trustworthy as PPAs are compiled / maintained by random folks from the community. Oneiric is currently beta, yes
[12:35] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: btw, I already have checked that my driver, library and utilities are synched. all on 1.0.24.x
[12:35] <Sidewinder1> marenostrum, No worries; I beat myself up enough for both of us. :-)
[12:35] <marenostrum> :)
[12:36] <rizzo__> Pici: they are complaining about CVE-2011-0419
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: the iquick ppa only supports up to Lucid
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: the command does a bit more than the driver install
[12:36] <Pici> rizzo__: already been patched as well, see: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2011/CVE-2011-0419.html
[12:38] <zykotick9> luc__, see "/msg ubottu iso" and "/msg ubottu wine".  Good luck.
[12:39] <SnowmanX11> Hi there! Is there anybody who experienced a problem to connect to a router? I got a new router from my ISP and whatever I did, I could not gain IP address from the router. (Nor wired neither wireless.) The router is a Zyxel P2601HN-F1.
[12:39] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: to be honest, I'm pretty sure the steps I've done before have done all of that, but I will reboot and try again
[12:39] <rizzo__> Pici: thanks alot. i going to talk with my scanner
[12:40] <marenostrum> rizzo__, Oneiric is not only Beta now but Beta 1. There will be a Beta 2 on 22 September I think and then the stable.
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: its a good first step

[12:44] <cillo564> I have 10.04 LTS When comes next LTS version, is it usually easy to dist-upgrade to it?
[12:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> i'm trying to watch a DVD, but the thing says it cant decrypt the DVD.  what packages do i need?
[12:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> cillo564:  upgrading from LTS to LTS is supported, so its not too hard
[12:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> cillo564:  but with EVERY upgrade, you run the risk of things breaking
[12:44] <asdjaputra> cillo564, and it'll take time too
[12:45] <cillo564> TheEvilPhoenix, asdjaputra  ok thanks

[12:47] <BluesKaj> hey Sidewinder1
[12:47] <asdjaputra> G'day.. australian?
[12:47] <zykotick9> TheEvilPhoenix, in short, you could install libdvdread4 then run the required script --- alternatively, add the medibuntu repo and install libdvdcss2 [results are the same]
[12:48] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: right, I've rebooted, and I still have no sound
[12:48] <BluesKaj> asdjaputra, Canuckian :)
[12:48] <TheEvilPhoenix> zykotick9:  that's what i'm doing now
[12:48] <TheEvilPhoenix> the first one
[12:48] <TheEvilPhoenix> thanks
[12:48] <sie> How do I make apt-get or aptitude tell what files does pkg X own?
[12:48] <asdjaputra> BluesKaj, no idea what's that sorry :)
[12:48] <asdjaputra> BluesKaj, oh canadian?
[12:48] <Pici> mc89__: ecdsa isn't a recognized type. use dsa or rsa for protocol version 2.
[12:48] <BluesKaj> asdjaputra,  nick for Canadian
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: which sound device do you use, you have 3 listed in the alsa-info script output...

[12:50] <Pici> !ot
[12:50] <asdjaputra> BluesKaj, yes
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> hallgeirg: boot to liveCD and reinstate grub2 on your internal drive

[12:51] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: the VIA one
[12:52] <hallgeirg> Action: reinstate grub2?  cause i can only choose try ubuntu or install ubuntu on ubuntu liveCD
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: I'm guessing your video card has HDMI with HDMI audio. Is that right?
[12:52] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: yes, correct.
[12:52] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: I'm not using that
[12:52] <mc89__> Pici, then how do i use openssh with the 2 you mentioned
[12:52] <edbian> hallgeirg: choose try, then you can use the terminal to install grub
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> hallgeirg: you can do it in a chroot in the live desktop
[12:52] <hallgeirg> I have tried to edit /etc/default/grub
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: just clarifying. hmm, let me see
[12:53] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: if I mute and unmute the "internal audio analogue stereo" in pavucontrol output devices, I hear pops in both ears of my headphones, so the physical hardware is obviously working
[12:53] <edbian> hallgeirg: Did you then run sudo update-grub  (after editing the file?)
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> hallgeirg: it's not just that
[12:53] <hallgeirg> edbian: yes
[12:53] <greenmang0> guys, i somehow screwed up with the default cursor theme available with ubuntu, how can i get it back? where to install it from?
[12:53] <edbian> hallgeirg: What are you trying to fix?
[12:53] <Pici> mc89__: ssh-keygen -t dsa    , ssh itself will find the key automagically
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> hallgeirg: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/how-to-recover-grub2-linux.html
[12:54] <hallgeirg> when i reboot my box i get the bios screen, then a black screen with cursor, and nothing more
[12:54] <ne2k> hallgeirg: can you boot from a CD?
[12:55] <Giac0m0> Is there already a ubuntu implemetation of the sandbox that you can find in Fedora en RHEL?
[12:55] <hallgeirg> ne2k: yes
[12:55] <ne2k> hallgeirg: what you report suggests a corrupt MBR
[12:55] <hallgeirg> what is mbr?
[12:55] <edbian> hallgeirg: I think grub is installed.  Can you press shift during boot and see a menu about which OS to boot?  (press shift several times after the bios post)
[12:55] <edbian> hallgeirg: MBR is the master boot record.  It is the area of the harddrive where a small program sits that tells the bios where the OS's are on the hdd
[12:56] <hallgeirg> edebia: i tried holding shift but only black screen
[12:56] <hallgeirg> (did not press multiple times)
[12:56] <pzn> how can I "customize" the name of "desktop" folder?
[12:56] <BluesKaj> hallgeirg, holding the shift works too
[12:56] <edbian> hallgeirg: You only have to press it once to activate the menu but knowing precisely what moment to press it is tricky so I usually press it a whole bunch
[12:57] <hallgeirg> but i got to boot it after using Linux mint live cd
[12:57] <edbian> hallgeirg: If you didn't have grub installed you'd get a screen that says 'No OS found' or similar
[12:57] <Stanley00> pzn: try looking in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[12:57] <hallgeirg> so i am in ubuntu now
[12:57] <mc89__> Pici: openssh is still looking for the ecdsa key
[12:57] <edbian> hallgeirg: Can you elaborate on how you did that?
[12:57] <edbian> hallgeirg: How did a linux mint live CD help you boot your installed OS?
[12:57] <Pici> mc89__: Can you show me what command you are trying to run?
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: I can't see anything amiss, all I can recommend is under sound properties change the output device to something else, then back to what it should be. My sound fixing ability is limited
[12:58] <hallgeirg> edebian: i booted with LinuxMint live cd, till it said booting in 10 sec
[12:58] <edbian> hallgeirg: So you're running linux mint then
[12:58] <ne2k> ActionParsnip: done all that. thanks for your help
[12:58] <hallgeirg> then pressed a key and choose boot from disk
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> ne2k: maybe others can chip in
[12:58] <edbian> hallgeirg: I see!
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> hallgeirg: the guide I gave should help
[12:58] <dchua> I'm testing oneiric beta1 and I need to grab the source for a particular package. What deb-src URL should I use (in /etc/apt/sources.list) for this? Thanks.
[12:58] <hallgeirg> edebian: no, it booted my freshly installed ubuntu
[12:58] <edbian> hallgeirg: Are you running the mint liveCD right now?
[12:58] <Pici> dchua : Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released. Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion.
[12:58] <Stanley00> dchua: beta has #ubuntu+1
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> dchua: ask in #ubuntu+1 for oneiric
[12:58] <edbian> hallgeirg: Reboot into some linux liveCD (ubunut or mint)
[12:59] <hallgeirg> ok.
[12:59] <edbian> hallgeirg: then pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
[12:59] <mc89__> Pici, /opt/etc/init.d/S40sshd start
[13:00] <hallgeirg> edebian: it is big
[13:00] <hallgeirg> and what is pastebin?
[13:00] <edbian> hallgeirg: paste.ubuntu.com
[13:00] <edbian> hallgeirg: It's what you use to show me a lot of text
[13:00] <klingelbart> hi, if i use nautilus to copy mp3 files onto my mp3-player, the file-properties (album-name etc.) get lost, so the player can't play the files. does anyone have got a solution?
[13:00] <edbian> hallgeirg: do NOT paste it here in the channel
[13:00] <hallgeirg> ofc
[13:01] <Pici> mc89__: Uh.  Why does it look like you are running a custom install of openssh? Is there a reason you aren't using the packaged version in the repositories?
[13:01] <hallgeirg> edebian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/684388/
[13:01] <edbian> hallgeirg: that's not my name ;)
[13:01] <Pici> !tab | hallgeirg
[13:01] <valthyx> in ubuntu, if i type "arp -a", will i be able to see all hosts in my network? assuming host isolation is not available.
[13:01] <hallgeirg> <-- a bit of a noob
[13:02] <robinduckett> got my boss to order me an nvidia card isntead of an ati card for my workstation, anyone know how easy / difficult it will be to swap them out? will i need to uninstall the ati drivers first?
[13:02] <edbian> hallgeirg: you have a lot of hdds
[13:02] <mc89__> Pici i used ipkg
[13:02] <coz_> valthyx,  did you try it?
[13:02] <Pici> mc89__: ipkg? What is ipkg?
[13:02] <edbian> Pici: apples newest product
[13:02] <edbian> hallgeirg: sudo mount /dev/sdf1 /mnt/
[13:02] <hallgeirg> edbian: yeah.. ubuntu is on my 80gb ssd
[13:02] <Pici> mc89__: Are you running Ubuntu?
[13:02] <edbian> hallgeirg: This mounts the ubuntu install into the /mnt folder in the live CD
[13:03] <mc89__> Pici, no i just realised the thing im working on isn't ubuntu
[13:03] <mc89__> but my desktop is
[13:03] <mc89__> it's a qnap nas
[13:03] <Pici> mc89__: I'm afraid we can't help you with that then.  Sorry.
[13:03] <hallgeirg> edbian: done
[13:03] <mc89__> ok no worries, my bad anyway
[13:03] <Onlyodin> valthyx, you'll see the machines your machine has arp'd, ie. it will show the machines it has conversed with, not necessarily all the machines on the network.
[13:04] <edbian> hallgeirg: What hdd does the bios boot?
[13:04] <edbian> hallgeirg: You have many OSs
[13:05] <hallgeirg> edbian: the ssd disk and I should not have any exept ubuntu now
[13:05] <edbian> hallgeirg: ok,   sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/ /dev/sdf
[13:06] <hallgeirg> edbian: Installation finished. No error reported.
[13:06] <edbian> hallgeirg: That installs grub to the ssd and tells grub where to put it's extra files
[13:06] <edbian> hallgeirg: awesome :)  try to reboot and see if it works
[13:06] <edbian> hallgeirg: It may be the fact that it's an SSD but it shouldn't matter
[13:06] <hallgeirg> edbian: thank you so much..  brb
[13:07] <BluesKaj> ne2k, open alsamixer in the terminal , make sure the headphone ctrl isn't muted , F5 will show all ctrls and make sure auto mute is turned off , if so equipped.
[13:07] <edbian> hallgeirg: sure
[13:07] <hoarycripple> Is there any way I can specify that particular package never gets updated?
[13:07] <Pici> !pinning | hoarycripple
[13:07] <pzn> Stanley00, thanks, it worked!
[13:07] <hoarycripple> Pici, thank you.
[13:07] <Stanley00> pzn: you are welcome ;)
[13:07] <coz_> hoarycripple,  you could open sysnaptic  and set that package a frozen
[13:07] <Pici> hoarycripple: np.
[13:08] <ne2k> BluesKaj: done all that
[13:08] <ne2k> BluesKaj: I'm convinced that everything is in place as it was before it stopped working
[13:09] <ne2k> BluesKaj: I had this exact same problem a few weeks ago, and that time, upgrading the driver to the -dev ppa one fixed it, but this time, it's not working
[13:09] <hoarycripple> Pici, fantastic.  exactly what I was looking for.  thanks again.
[13:11] <rizzo__> so after freaking out about the pci scan results, i installed packeges from another distro of ubuntu and ppa, for apache and php, how to i get them back to the orignal , i went head and edited my sources.lst and ran apt-get update, what else do i have to do
[13:12] <hallgeirg> hm
[13:12] <hallgeirg> edbian:  you there still?
[13:12] <BluesKaj> ne2k, I get chastised sometimes for suggesting this but pulseaudio can be the problem in a lot of cases , therefore I don't use or need it . Either install pavucontrol and paprefs , or remove pulseaudio and use alsa as your audio ctrl system instead. With pulseaudio it's all or nothing in some cases.
[13:13] <ne2k> BluesKaj: I already have pavucontrol
[13:14] <BluesKaj> ne2k, well then , it's your decision whether to keep fiddling with pulseaudio or ....
[13:14] <ne2k> BluesKaj: the problem is not with pulseaudio, the problem is with alsa
[13:16] <BluesKaj> ne2k, I have no problems with alsa , but with pulseaudio I have nothing but problems .
[13:16] <ne2k> BluesKaj: can I just apt-get remove pulseaudio?
[13:17] <BluesKaj> ne2k, pulseaudio is basically redundant
[13:17] <BluesKaj> ne2k, yes , but you'll need to reboot
[13:17] <valthyx> in ubuntu, when i type "arp -a", will it show all the hosts in the network? assuming that host isolation is disabled
[13:19] <sipior> valthyx: no, only entries for which an arp entry is cached.
[13:19] <ne2k>  BluesKaj: I've done alsa force-reload and I got lots of pops and clicks, and banshee reports it's playing, but I still get no sound
[13:19] <robinduckett> ne2k
[13:19] <robinduckett> is your cable
[13:19] <robinduckett> plugged into the right output
[13:20] <robinduckett> i know it sounds ridiculous and you've probably already checked
[13:20] <ne2k> robinsmidsrod: seriously, I'm not an idiot
[13:20] <valthyx> sipior, is there any way to check who are connected to the network?
[13:20] <robinduckett> ne2k: neither is anyone else who have found that to be the case when they *actually* checked
[13:20] <coz_> ne2k,  I dont think he meant it that way
[13:20] <robinduckett> could be anything from faulty cable to incorrect hole
[13:20] <ne2k> robinsmidsrod: as I said, when I mute and unmute the headphones in pavucontrol (before I removed pulseaudio), I got clicks in the headphones. therefore the headphones are plugged into the right socket
[13:21] <ne2k> robinduckett: I have ruled out all of those things
[13:21] <robinduckett> ne2k: I get that when my headphones are plugged into the mic.
[13:21] <hostdream> even I'm using the http://pastie.org/2496275 as partition table in my preseed, I've the box asking me for the confirmation to write change to disk, how can I avoid this ? Can anyone help on this ? :)
[13:21] <robinduckett> i don't get clicks when it's in the right hole
[13:21] <coz_> ne2k,  which audio card is th is?
[13:21] <ne2k> coz: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=c8658fe1087c71962f0004c4aa3543804a643094 VIA one
[13:21] <hallgeirg> is there anyone here that tried to help me 5 minutes ago?
[13:21] <sipior> valthyx: nmap is useful for exploring your network surroundings.
[13:22] <BluesKaj> ne2k, reboot, force reload alsa means nothing , you need to rid the system of the pulseaudio default config settings
[13:22] <SejmL> hello
[13:22] <ne2k> BluesKaj: ok. reboot YET AGAIN, here we come
[13:22] <robinduckett> ne2k
[13:22] <hallgeirg> cause it did not work, but now I got the error message "file not found" and something called "grub rescue"
[13:22] <robinduckett> unplug all your shit
[13:22] <robinduckett> and plug it back in
[13:22] <FloodBot1> robinduckett: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:22] <SejmL> could someone please help me select the right version of ubuntu in a private conversation?
[13:22] <xxzz> hi can I run Ubuntu on this hardware with wifi/X and other drivers http://paste.pocoo.org/show/c5GsYkUvGc069tNC28KJ/
[13:22] <robinduckett> and i will bet you one of the queen's finest that it works.
[13:23] <ne2k> oh, and restart doesn't work, btw, I have to do reboot from command line
[13:23] <coz_> ne2k,   when you ran alsamixer from terminal  did you press  F6  to choose the card?
[13:23] <ne2k> but this is a different problem
[13:23] <ne2k> coz_: the correct card is selected
[13:23] <snufft> is there a way to right-click file -> open as admin?
[13:25] <Sidewinder1> snufft, Open Nautilus, and do exactly as you said^
[13:26] <IdleOne> snufft: the nautilus-gksu package does that
[13:27] <hallgeirg> ok, ill try once more. I have a fresh ubuntu install, but every time I boot I get the biso screen, then a black screen with cursor and nothing more. I manage to get into ubuntu with inserting a LinuxMint liveCD and cancel their boot and choose "boot from harddrive"  I have tried to google this problem, but to no solution. It seems my install has failed to get grub to work. Please help.
[13:28] <TeamCoco> hello, how can i make sure which drivers i need for my graphicscard (gt 540m), i read about bumblebee, but i'm not sure if i have to use it
[13:28] <becool> deepfear
[13:28] <becool> #ubuntu-fr-offtopic
[13:28] <SejmL> hallgeiro I'm kind of a nobb but to me it seems like u're running live cd and didn't install ubuntu
[13:28] <SejmL> that's all i can help u with sorry -__-
[13:29] <ne2k> BluesKaj: no improvement after reboot. interestingly, Banshee now crashes randomly after it's been playing for a few minutes.
[13:29] <hallgeirg> SejmL: i have installed it. I am sure. Have installed it 3-4 times now, to same result
[13:29] <snufft> Sidewinder1, IdleOne: where do i grab nautilus from?
[13:30] <ne2k> BluesKaj: hmmm, banshee appears to be trying to use jack, "jack server is not running or cannot be started"
[13:30] <BluesKaj> ne2k, try vlc
[13:30] <coz_> snufft,  it is default on the system
[13:30] <robinsmidsrod> ne2k: I assume the stuff earlier was a nick-autocomplete typo?
[13:30] <snufft> coz_: how do i open it then? :S
[13:30] <IdleOne> snufft: nautilus is the default file manager in Ubuntu.
[13:30] <coz_> snufft,  open the home directory
[13:30] <coz_> snufft,   or   in terminal  sudo -i    then   type nautilus
[13:30] <ne2k> BluesKaj: it's trying to use pulse
[13:30] <snufft> if it's the default manager, there's no 'open as admin' option or the like :(
[13:31] <coz_> snufft,   there should be in nautilus  ,,
[13:31] <BluesKaj> ne2k, remove pulseaudio-utils
[13:31] <coz_> unless it requires an extra script
[13:31] <Enkidu> Hello! I try to grant access to some folder to SAMBA but dont really know how to do that. Someone could help?
[13:31] <ne2k> BluesKaj: I thought I had looked for all packages with pulseaudio in the name and only found pulseaudio
[13:31] <IdleOne> coz_: does nautilus do that default or does he need to install nautilus-gksu ?
[13:31] <ne2k> I did dpkg -l |grep pulseaudio and only pulseaudio came up. I think, anyway !
[13:32] <ne2k> anyway, removed that now
[13:32] <ne2k> BluesKaj: vlc is still trying to use pulse
[13:32] <snufft> even using sudio -i nautilus, there's nothing in right click. must be another script?
[13:32] <coz_> IdleOne,   that's what I was wondering ,, I cant tell for sure because of my "mint"  experiment here which handles  it slightly differently,, need to reinstall ubuntu to be sure :(
[13:33] <BECOOL> deepfear
[13:33] <robinduckett> snufft: if you want to open something as admin
[13:33] <robinduckett> do something like
[13:33] <IdleOne> snufft: install nautilus-gksu from Software Center or sudo apt-get install nautilus-gksu
[13:33] <BECOOL>  /msg NickServ identify deepfear
[13:33] <robinduckett> gksu gedit thefileyouwant.php or so
[13:33] <ne2k> ah, vlc-plugin-pulse needed to be removed
[13:33] <hallgeirg> ok, ill try once more. I have a fresh ubuntu install, but every time I boot I get the biso screen, then a black screen with cursor and nothing more. I manage to get into ubuntu with inserting a LinuxMint liveCD and cancel their boot and choose "boot from harddrive" I have tried to google this problem, but to no solution. It seems my install has failed to get grub to work. Please help.
[13:33] <BECOOL>  /msg becool identify deepfear
