[09:28] <supergate> even when I sudo apt-get install build-essential, still have the same errors
[09:28] <glick> hmm
[09:28] <MrSchaapman> I don't know if maybe the fact that the video is all choppy has to do with my graphics card...?
[09:28] <MrSchaapman> It is integrated.
[09:28] <supergate> test.c:1:17: error: stdio: No such file or directory
[09:28] <MrSchaapman> Still, I think it would be able to handle SD video.
[09:28] <syn-ack> MrSchaapman, Which card?
[09:28] <karma_police_> i messed up and tried to dualboot win7 with ubuntu... i installed win7 after ubuntu and overwrote the grub.. i have restored grub by following the forum but cannot get windows to show up in grub
[09:29] <blue_> what is seahorse?
[09:29] <Dr_Willis> karma_police_:  in theory - on ubuntuy - when you run 'update-grub' it should see/add windows to the menus.
[09:29] <Dr_Willis> karma_police_:  this is ubuntu 9.10?
[09:29] <karma_police_> yes
[09:30] <Vamp898> blue_ A GNOME application for managing encryption keys
[09:30] <glick> syn-ack, do i have to restart gnome for it to take effect?
[09:30] <syn-ack> glick, Probably, I'm not sure
[09:30] <Thoben> blue_: Seahorse is a GNOME application for managing encryption keys
[09:30] <syn-ack> glick, It'd probably be safe to log out and log back in
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> syn-ack:  NOW vlc plays the dvd disk....
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> syn-ack:  i wonder if the decss stuff some how generated a key
[09:30] <syn-ack> Dr_Willis, how?
[09:30] <karma_police_> ran update grub.. just reboot and its fixed?
[09:31] <syn-ack> Dr_Willis, Doubtful
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> syn-ack:  well theres now a .dvdcss directory with  stuff in it. I diddnet notice befor
[09:31] <syn-ack> Dr_Willis, its not like its Blu-Ray where you have a keyserver and such, its one key per region
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> lets try removeing that and see...
[09:32] <holmser> whats the shortcut to restart x?
[09:32] <karma_police_> Dr_Willis i ran update-grub.. with a reboot solve this or are there other steps to take?
[09:32] <holmser> ctrl alt backspace?
[09:32] <Vamp898> ALT + PRINT + K
[09:32] <syn-ack> holmser, nop
[09:32] <syn-ack> Vamp898, which is silly. I re-enable zapping all the time
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> karma_police_:  did the update-grub output mention windows?
[09:33] <supergate> >.< I give up for the night
[09:33] <karma_police_> yes it did.. said it found it
[09:33] <syn-ack> Leave it an emacs user to complain about it...
[09:33] <MrSchaapman> I'm going to sleep now.
[09:33] <Vamp898> syn-ack me not beceause alt + print + k killes more than just Xorg ;)
[09:33] <MrSchaapman> I'll deal with this later.
[09:33] <glick> thanks syn-ack
[09:34] <syn-ack> Vamp898, if I need my SysReq keys I use them, but if I'm zapping X thats all I need to do... nothing more nothing less
[09:34] <holmser> there we go... seahorse plugins and a restart did it
[09:34] <karma_police_> Dr_Willis it said it Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sdb2
[09:34] <karma_police_> along with a bunch of other info
[09:35] <syn-ack> Vamp898, imo its no more dangerous than using the System Request keys anyway
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> karma_police_:  reboot and see if it does it then. Od that windows is on sdb2... must be a recovery partition on sdb1
[09:35] <Vamp898> syn-ack thats not what i mean, but alt + print + k can even work whan zapping does not more ;)
[09:35] <karma_police_> i made the mistake of installing windows after installing ubuntu.. had to rebuild grub.. maybe thats why?
[09:35] <syn-ack> Vamp898, which is why I said "IF" I need them. :P
[09:35] <karma_police_> i'll brb.... rebooting
[09:36] <syn-ack> I think I'm going to have one more smoke then head to bed.
[09:36] <ath_> alright, odd; i was just watching an embedded video in firefox using mozilla-mplayer, was working perfectly; Then the machine froze and had to hard reboot, now, mplayer plugin still plays video fine, but theres NO audio in firefox whatsoever. Sound works fine in everything else though.. any ideas?
[09:36] <syn-ack> later guys
[09:39] <holmser> why doesn't ctrl alt backspace reboot x anymore?
[09:39] <Vamp898> holmser beceause they changed it xD
[09:39] <holmser> I know... can't be messing with my shortcuts
[09:39] <holmser> lol
[09:39] <meowbuntu> anyone out there can help me. i fiind that if i open more than one application my computer lags freezs interminently for ??? length of time. and plays up. got pentium 4 with 768mb ram and 1.8mhz cpu.  other things that also happen when i try to play music it plays ok for few minuts then cpu maxes out and sound stops while player counter speeds up or and jumpy music etc

[09:41] <karmic_police> ok that did not work...

[09:47] <Ascavasaion> Can anyone advise me of a nice music player.  I used to use Amarok on my KDE systems and it was quite nice.  I no use Rhythmbox but I am not crazy about it.  What other ones are there for me to have a look at please?
[09:48] <Vamp898> Ascavasaion maybe you┬┤d like exaile
[09:48] <Ascavasaion> Vamp898: I will have a look, gthank you.

[09:49] <amerb> hey
[09:49] <Ascavasaion> Vamp898: thank you
[09:49] <holmser> damn... now I have all this encryption capability, and no reason to use it
[09:49] <amerb> got a ?
[09:49] <fanf> does anybody know how to enable fast user switch in Karmic like it was in previous version ?
[09:49] <fanf> now, switch user brings me back to gdm screen each time
[09:50] <fanf> what is not so fast
[09:50] <amerb> need a decent dictionary thats pretty good at password cracks... any help?
[09:51] <Vamp898> amerb not here xD scriptkiddies does nobody like ;)
[09:51] <fanf> I really would like to have a switch user menu as shown here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/KarmicFusa
[09:52] <fanf> but all I have is a "switch user..."
[09:52] <ath_> alright, odd; i was just watching an embedded video in firefox using mozilla-mplayer, was working perfectly; Then the machine froze and had to hard reboot, now, mplayer plugin still plays video fine, but theres NO audio in firefox whatsoever.

[09:52] <Vamp898> 7is there a package called like this in ubuntu
[09:54] <hsmak> http://packages.ubuntu.com/ is not up....wt is going on???
[09:55] <jtaji> hsmak: it happens
[09:55] <Flannel> fanf: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/422052  seems to be a bug
[09:56] <hsmak> jtaji: doeas it usually take long time to bring it up?
[09:56] <fanf> Flannel: ho thanks, I didn't find it
[09:56] <Bragex9> can anyone check my xorg.conf and xorg log files? I have attached the pc to my lcd tv, but I am unable to get the correct resolution. http://pastebin.com/m32b106e
[09:57] <jtaji> hsmak: not usually
[09:57] <hsmak> jtaji: ok then, good news :)
[09:57] <EastDallas> Ascavasaion: I use Amarok in Gnome with no issues.
[09:57] <Quan-Time_> Bragex9: its not detecting the native res.. id just force it.. find out what it is, and only let it do that.. ive had to do it that way before with my TV
[09:58] <Ascavasaion> EastDallas: thank you.
[09:59] <Bragex9> quan-time: the problem now is that I only get 640x480 on my tv. And i am a newbie to ubuntu, and actually have no idea about how this works...
[10:00] <eggy_> Hello, I have a problem where I keep getting 'Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode'. Now, I tried "recovery mode", but ubuntu seems to have grub broken so there is no single user mode (providing 'init=/bin/bash' as kernel parameter doesn't do anything, or does appending a '1' on the kernel line).  I keep having to reboot using a livecd, and I don't know how to solve it
[10:03] <JNSamuel> cool story bro
[10:03] <balachmar> How can I get the faac library in Ubuntu?
[10:03] <eggy_> Yeah, thanks. I'm incredibly annoyed
[10:03] <hsmak> JNSamuel: :D
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> libfaac0 - an AAC audio encoder - library files
[10:04] <eggy_> I just cannot understand how the ubuntu guys managed to screw up the init system so bad
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> Init system is slowly getting replaced by upstart.
[10:04] <eggy_> But really, I'm not here to bitch, I really want to solve this problem, and I have no idea how. 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' didn't do the trick
[10:05] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, yeah, not for the better
[10:05] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  thats debateable.. and has been debated in the forums
[10:05] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, sounds likely, but it uses symlinks to a script that does the dispatch pased on the basename
[10:06] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, but you can't change permissions of symlinks, so all you can do is rename or remove
[10:06] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, anyways, any idea how can I disable this 'low-graphics' utility?
[10:06] <Dr_Willis> Im not evne sure what your origial problem  is/was
[10:07] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, well, when I start ubuntu I get 'ubuntu is running in low graphics mode', and you can't do anything with that utility, and you can't get to the terminal
[10:07] <eggy_> But I *know* my x server is working (because yesterday (and the day before) I had the same problem and somehow fixed it, but just for one session)
[10:07] <jhaig> Running apt-get update I get "W: GPG error: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key<EMAIL_ADDRESS> How can I fix this?
[10:08] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, why don't we have good old runlevel 1 and 3 :(
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> so when you 'startx' it warns about being in low graphics mode?
[10:09] <satya1> Hi Does anyone know how to install yum server on ubuntu 9.04
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> satya1:  whats 'yum' ?
[10:09] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, no, startx worked last time I managed to get on the terminal without this utility
[10:09] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, its suse version of apt
[10:10] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, but the problem is, I can't get to the terminal, in any way
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  thats the only Yum i know pof also... but satya1  may mean some other Yum
[10:10] <satya1> dr_willis: it includes all packages
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  disable the gdm service perhaps.
[10:10] <monk> Hi everyon
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> satya1:  you are not making much sence. Why do you want to use the Suse/Yum/RPM package sstem on ubuntu?
[10:11] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, I disabled gdm and kdm
[10:11] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, at least, I renamed them, I'm not sure how to disable them properly
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  on 9.10 you move/remove the /etc/init/???dm?? file i belive
[10:11] <kensanata> I'm using Firefox 3.5.5 on Ubuntu 9.10 and when I click on the feed button in the address, I can open or download the feed instead of being shown a preview. I'm running -safe-mode and get the same behavior. Click on the button, choose "Subscribe to the Bla Atom/RSS..." but then I get the open dialog.
[10:12] <kensanata> When I check my preferences, I do see the entry that says feeds should be handled by Preview in Firefox.
[10:12] <Dr_Willis>  /etc/init/gdm.conf
[10:12] <kensanata> What can I do? Some MIME entry missing somewhere?
[10:12] <monk> Hi! I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and the connect system call doesn't work
[10:12] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, I moved /etc/init.d/kdm and a bunch of other things like 'x11-common'
[10:12] <monk> It always gives a network unreachable error
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  gdm/kdm are no longer handled by the init.d system. Its handled by upstart. Those files in init.d never get used.
[10:12] <DrunkenKanarie> hi
[10:13] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, aaah, I see, so I need to care about /etc/init, ok
[10:13] <monk> Could anyone please tell me how to make the connect system call work?
[10:13] <eggy_> monk, man 2 connect
[10:13] <angeler> salut
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  yep. and as time goes on /etc/rc2.d will get emptier and emptier... thats teh only 'rc#.d' location that matters by default I belive
[10:14] <angeler> les fow sont l'une de mes dernieres occupations dans ces cas la xD
[10:14] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, I see. Is upstart why runlevel 1 and 3 are broken (i.e., nonexistent)?
[10:14] <angeler> merde
[10:14] <angeler> canal^^"
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  ubuntu hasent used  the different runlevels stuff except for 0,2,6  for ages.
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> !runlevels
[10:14] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, troublesome, so how do we boot into single user mode?
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> oops 0 1 6.  Hmm perhaps its rc1.d thats used now
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  i got a 'single' user mode in my grub menus.
[10:15] <satya1> Dr_Willis : I would like to configure Apache webserver on my home dekstop..
[10:15] <jtaji> Dr_Willis: you were right, 0,1,6, AND 2
[10:15] <Jordan_> i need help with flashpolicyd
[10:15] <Dr_Willis>         linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-generic root=UUID=bdddbfdb-58e7-49d0-91b8-f3df42e4b41b ro single
[10:15] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, aah, 'single'. I tried '1'
[10:16] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, and I tried init=/bin/bash which seemed to do nothing
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> satya1:  so... Install apache and get to work. What does this have to do with  Yum?
[10:16] <satya1> Dr_Willis : i want to configure a single site with .www.example.com name at some ipaddress
[10:16] <monk> Yeah I tried the man pages for connect
[10:16] <monk> But there's no specific instruction there as to why it doesn't work only in Ubuntu
[10:16] <monk> I always get a network unreachable error
[10:16] <monk> Even when my firewall is not enabled
[10:17] <eggy_> monk, so the problem is not related to connect, but it's a general network problem
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  could be with grub2/9.10 they got rid of the 1, but ive never noticed. ive done the init=stuff in the past also.. but perhaps thatss also been phased out.
[10:17] <eggy_> monk, you'll need to fix that
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  ive not had to try it in ages.
[10:17] <airtonix> satya1, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:18] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, count yourself lucky then :). anyway, thanks a bunchload for the help, my usual linux tricks just weren't working out because of all the changes
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  all the changes happen in the relse befor the next LTS. :) people dont seem to realize that.   Toss the new stuff in Now to get it worked out for the next LTS.
[10:18] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, /etc/init seems to contain a lot of 'conf' files, are those the init scripts?
[10:19] <mac_the_kiwi_nz> hi all, I need to be able to re-image some remote machines with no intervention, any ideas - (rsync, zsync, compressed image of the partition, virtualbox image file????) whats the best way.
[10:19] <dendo> buon giorno  e la prima volta x me
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  those are upstart conf scripts. :) not really scripts..   and im not sure of the proper way to 'disable' a service in upstart. other then move one of those scripts.
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> actually the use of the term 'script' is wrong.. they are NOT scripts.. they are config files used by the upstart system
[10:19] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, ah, I see. Ok, moving it is :)
[10:19] <dns53> eggy_ i believe it is a transition, the old runlevels would spawn the /etc/init.d now upstart spawns them
[10:19] <Jordan_> hello, i need help with flashpolicyd. can anyone help?
[10:20] <dendo> italian ???
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  Yep. upstart  has potential.   and no i dont know 1/10th of the stuff about upstart... YET. :)
[10:20] <jtaji> !it | dendo
[10:20] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, I'm pretty sure failsafe-x is the problem
[10:21] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, I'm sure it does, but so far I don't like the changes I'm seeing
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  ive not even heard failsafe-X mentioned in ages.. i twas a big 'feature' a few releses ago.. then just sort of vanished.
[10:21] <dendo> grazzie ubottu
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> I dident even realize failsafe-X was still included.
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> or was that bulletproof-X
[10:21] <airtonix> Jordan_, referring to this ? http://code.google.com/p/flashpolicyd/wiki/Introduction
[10:21] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, it says it's started when gdm exists non-zero, but my default login manager is kdm
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> Perhaps with the move to grub2 - there willbe some easier way to add some 'resuce/repair' features to the Grub menus.
[10:22] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, i think its bulletproof
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  i had issues in beta when i had gdm and kdm both installed.. Ive not tried kdm+gdm both since beta.
[10:22] <Jordan_> airtonix: yes i am
[10:22] <satya1> airtonix : Actually i have recently joined for RHEL course . They explained me about configuration of FTP, Samba , NFS, Master DNS server with the help on Yum server ..
[10:23] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, oh, I see. The brokenness seems to be pretty integrated :)
[10:23] <Dr_Willis> I think we need a nice desktop neutral ?dm :)
[10:23] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  i recall even removeing kdm in beta and having to hammer out some repairs.
[10:23] <dns53> like xdm or edm?
[10:23] <Dr_Willis> XXXdm :)
[10:23] <tobiasz> hi there, how do I edit the grub list in 9.10 to remove unwanted elements from the list?
[10:23] <satya1> do we have any similar server for ubuntu like "yum"
[10:23] <isolat3dsh33p> what's an xdm?
[10:23] <isolat3dsh33p> D:
[10:23] <airtonix> satya1, then using a virtual machine install red hat on the VM then follow what you learnt inside the VM
[10:23] <tobiasz> also how do I do it in 9.04
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  remove the kernels you no longer need. (carefully remove them)
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  then rerun update-grub
[10:24] <tobiasz> Dr_Willis from synaptic?
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> the 'computer janitor' tool. or synaptic.. yes...
[10:24] <airtonix> satya1, because ubuntu is debian based therefore uses DEB files, and Red Hat is using RPMs...
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> I would always leave at least 2 kernels...
[10:24] <DrunkenKanarie> hello, i'm getting lots of CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys while using wlan (ubuntu 9.04) with another wlan router. what could it be?
[10:25] <satya1> airtonix : ok got it... currently i am running ubuntu on my windows desktop .. Can i install redhat on my window via vmworkstation
[10:25] <tobiasz> Dr_Willis do I do it via synaptic? How is it called? Linux header or something?
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> satya1:  virtualbox/vmware can run most linux disrtos. yes
[10:26] <satya1> airtonix : where can i get the rhel uso file
[10:26] <satya1> *iso file
[10:26] <airtonix> satya1, no idea
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  im not sure. I rarely worry about the kernel files.
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  try system-> admin -> computer janitor.
[10:26] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, yeah, it works now, and I can just do 'startx' and I get a working KDE. kdm also works. This failsafe utility is preposterously broken
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  be VERY carefull with computer-janotir.. it likes to remove too much
[10:26] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, should I file a bug report?
[10:26] <jez9999> Hi... I'm trying to install libgtk2.0-dev but Synaptic Package Manager can't find all necessary dependencies.  I get the following errors: http://pastebin.com/mcf8f61b
[10:26] <jez9999> any idea how I can fix?
[10:27] <airtonix> satya1, i just know your situation will be easier if you put this RHEL knowledge into action via a virtual machine
[10:27] <Dr_Willis> eggy_:  sure why not.. ive never seen seen/used the failsafe tool.
[10:27] <airtonix> satya1, rather than try to lobotomise your ubuntu desktop install
[10:27] <eggy_> Dr_Willis, okido. Thanks a lot for the help
[10:27] <jtaji> tobiasz: I usually search for linux-image, find the version numbers I want to remove, say 2.6.31-14, then search for "2.6.31-14" and remove everything that comes up
[10:27] <airtonix> !info virtualbox | satya1
[10:27] <airtonix> -_-
[10:27] <Dr_Willis> !vbox | satya1
[10:28] <tobiasz> jtaji do I have to run update-grub after removing these kernels?
[10:28] <jtaji> tobiasz: no
[10:28] <satya1> ubottu : can i run rhel image on virtual box ?
[10:28] <jtaji> tobiasz: it's run automatically
[10:28] <Psinetic_> hey everyone. i'm on ubuntu 9.10, running pidgin. i'm active duty us navy stationed in japan and need help getting pidgin to run webcam with my girlfriend in Australia. :( help?
[10:28] <sde> virtualbox is awesome
[10:28] <Dr_Willis> wont hurt to rerun it.. but it should auto-run
[10:29] <tobiasz> jtaji thx man :)
[10:29] <airtonix> !bot | satya1
[10:29] <DrunkenKanarie> hello, i'm getting lots of CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys while using wlan (ubuntu 9.04) with another wlan router. what could it be?
[10:29] <tobiasz> jtaji how do I delete other elements from the grub like memtest or things like that?
[10:29] <airtonix> Psinetic, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  /etc/default/grub  and /etc/grub.d/* files
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  edit them (read up on grub2) rerun sudo update-grubv
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> tobiasz:  edit them (read up on grub2) rerun sudo update-grub

[10:33] <echosystm> boot speed is worse than xp
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> echosystm:  i have heard on non atom sstems it canbe sluggish.

[10:34] <echosystm> i'm not impressed :/
[10:34] <echosystm> the ui is ok
[10:34] <echosystm> but performance is bad
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> The state of the Intel video drivers are still.. causing a lot of issues for some people i belive
[10:34] <meowbuntu> is this command ok to do in ubuntu. cd /usr/local/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi

[10:34] <isolat3dsh33p> echosystm: what is atom?
[10:35] <asdfhkasd> hey dudes, ubuntu isnt picking up my mic, what do i do?
[10:35] <Sacho> meowbuntu: it would only work as root
[10:35] <jtaji> meowbuntu: it's having you download a program and make it executable, could be sketchy if you don't know what it is and you decide to run it
[10:35] <sheldon> anyone knows where i can find atheros drivers
[10:35] <jtaji> meowbuntu: it will also end up in your path
[10:35] <isolat3dsh33p> asdfhkasd: Check your update manager first :D
[10:35] <meowbuntu> asdfhkasd, is you here other day with same prob
[10:35] <sheldon> ????
[10:36] <asdfhkasd> no meowbuntu and i already did isolat3dsh33p

[10:37] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  that dosent really tell us what that handy app does.. :)
[10:37] <sheldon> anyone free to help??
[10:37] <isolat3dsh33p> asdfhkasd: type alsamixer in your terminal and check whether mic is muted or not
[10:37] <airtonix> asdfhkasd, helps if you 1) mention ubuntu version 2) mention soundcard type (or provide output from lspci as pastebin) 3) mention what you've already tried
[10:37] <meowbuntu> asdfhkasd, dont know that app what is it
[10:37] <Sacho> Dr_Willis: he's asked this several days ago, inxi is a bash script that gives some system information
[10:37] <dns53> sheldon have you asked a question? can you please ask it again
[10:38] <meowbuntu> airtonix, good suggestion i hope asdfhkasd got it
[10:38] <airtonix> meowbuntu, is this what you are talking about : http://techpatterns.com/forums/about1133.html
[10:38] <sheldon> dns53 how do i install drivers for the atheros wireless card
[10:40] <airtonix> meowbuntu, definitly needs to be part of ubuntu default ...
[10:41] <meowbuntu> airtonix,  yea that application is it its handy for posting system info in terminal ot directly in xchat. inxi -s shows system info. inxi -a shows audio info etc \
[10:41] <aivaras> Any project for macosx style landscape folder view on ubuntu?
[10:41] <airtonix> meowbuntu, yep, do you have to copy/paste into irc or does it do that for you?
[10:42] <airtonix> aivaras, link to screenshots to visuallise your meaning please
[10:42] <meowbuntu> sh: inxi: not found
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> perhaps not in your default path
[10:42] <meowbuntu>  /exec -o inxi -s would be how you get it to display in xchat.
[10:42] <dns53> isheldon i believe it is in the package   linux-restricted-modules
[10:43] <Newbie-Widget> hi
[10:43] <aivaras> http://images.apple.com/macosx/what-is-macosx/images/finder_hero_20090824.png folders like that possible in ubuntu?
[10:43] <meowbuntu> meowbuntu> airtonix,  yea that application is it its handy for posting system info in terminal or directly in xchat.
[10:43] <airtonix> meowbuntu, you'll need to : sudo apt-get install gawk first
[10:43]  * Callum o_O
[10:44] <meowbuntu> airtonix, whats gawk
[10:44] <Callum> my god, when did my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop shut down so quickly
[10:44] <Dr_Willis> !info gawk
[10:44] <ardchoille> aivaras: You mean that dock at the bottom?
[10:44] <Psinetic_> can someone PLEASE help me get my mic to work on skype? i'm on Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, i have pulseaudio selected (because it's the only thing i can select) and i've installed gnome alsa mixer, but i can't get my mic to work at all :(
[10:44] <Callum> < 4 second shut down from pressing the shut down button
[10:44] <airtonix> meowbuntu, its a string processing tool. inxi requires it. also you don't need to put the inxi script in /usr/local/bin
[10:44] <Newbie-Widget> hey guys, hoping someone can help... I have an old laptop, but the CD drive is kinda stuffed and I can't boot from USB :S .. i can however boot from Netework.. is there any other way I could possibly install (x)ubuntu ?
[10:44] <aivaras> ardchoille: no, the slideshow preview for all items in folder
[10:44] <dns53> aivaras search folders? that will be in gnome 3 so hopefully next release or the release after that
[10:44] <lolmac> hi
[10:44] <ardchoille> aivaras: oh, ok
[10:45] <meowbuntu> air where do i put it then
[10:45] <meowbuntu> airtonix, ^
[10:45] <aivaras> if only some1 did that for ubuntu, would be efin amazing
[10:45] <jtaji> !install | Newbie-Widget
[10:45] <ardchoille> dns53: I don't think a newly released gnome 3 is going to be in an LTS release as default
[10:45] <Newbie-Widget> ty, il check them out :)
[10:45] <airtonix> meowbuntu, this is what i just did : sudo apt-get install gawk && wget smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x ./inxi
[10:46] <isolat3dsh33p> aivaras: yeah looks awesome
[10:46] <dns53> ardchoille yeah it looks like it, though they may have a preview of zeitgeist we will see
[10:46] <ardchoille> yeah
[10:46] <meowbuntu> airtonix, thanks doing that now
[10:46] <airtonix> meowbuntu, you can put it anywhere just make sure that the location you put it is part of your path. yo ucan append locations to your path by appending the location to the $PATH global variable.
[10:47] <NerveClasp> Hi! Quick question: how to make my fat32 partition automount in Ubuntu?
[10:47] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  you could just make a /home/Username/bin dir and put the scripts in there. they will work for your single user.
[10:47] <ardchoille> aivaras: fwiw, there's a compiz plugin that does the alt+tab stuff exactly like that folder preview
[10:47] <Newbie-Widget> a silly question, but would the install for ubuntu and xubuntu be the same ? im sssuming so as the main difference is the desktop environment, yes ?
[10:47] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, meowbuntu yep this is where i have my user-land binaries
[10:47] <meowbuntu> airtonix, with your terminal command ^ where does that put inxi
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> NerveClasp:  add a proper entry for them in /etc/fstab  -  install/running the tool 'ntfs-config' might auto-add the proper entry for you
[10:48] <airtonix> meowbuntu, where ever you run it from, ie : i did that while at ~/Desktop
[10:48] <meowbuntu> o i c
[10:48] <ardchoille> airtonix: A good practice is to create ~/bin and add it to your path and put things like inxi there
[10:48] <kr_217> how to load ppolicy module ?
[10:48] <isolat3dsh33p> ardchoille: there is?
[10:49] <ardchoille> isolat3dsh33p: yes, I've used it
[10:49] <airtonix> ardchoille, i've already done this.
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> If you have a ~/bin it will get auto added to the default path next time you login
[10:49] <meowbuntu> air where is this located meowbuntu@meowbuntu-desktop:~$
[10:49] <ardchoille> airtonix: ok
[10:49] <airtonix> meowbuntu, thats in your home folder.
[10:49] <meowbuntu> airtonix, is that desktop
[10:49] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: it will? nice, didn't know that
[10:49] <meowbuntu> o i c great
[10:49] <isolat3dsh33p> ardchoille: for folder? what is it called?
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> ardchoille:  yep. its in the bash scripts to look/add it.
[10:49] <lolmac> Hi, I've recently installe ubuntu 9.04 and 9.1, both are really similar and i have the same problem on both, when i used ubuntu 7.04 and i think even 8.04, i didn't had this problem, i could create an adsl connection and used with my wired connection, i don't understand why ubuntu 9.1 has to disconnect the wired connection to dial the dsl (pppoe) connection, i've tried using pppoeconf too, and it doesn't work. the wired connection was set to ifupdown(eth0) and th
[10:49] <airtonix> meowbuntu, so if you first move into ~/bin and run the command then you 'll have it store in the ~/bin folder..
[10:50] <ardchoille> isolat3dsh33p: not for folder, for alt+tabbing
[10:50] <ardchoille> isolat3dsh33p: switching apps (ALT+TAB)
[10:50] <airtonix> ardchoille, i've forgotten how to modify the $PATH global variable per user...is something to do with a conf file in the home folder isn;t it?
[10:50] <dns53> export PATH=$PATH:newfolder
[10:50] <NerveClasp> Dr_Willis: but does ntfs config will treat fat32 partition? I tried /dev/sdxx /media/xxxx  ntfs-3g  umask=000  0 0 - but it doesn't work
[10:51] <isolat3dsh33p> ardchoille: you mean the super+tab?
[10:51] <Psinetic_> can someone PLEASE help me get my mic to work on skype? i'm on Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, i have pulseaudio selected (because it's the only thing i can select) and i've installed gnome alsa mixer, but i can't get my mic to work at all :(
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> ntfs-3g is for NTFS partitions/filesystems.. fat32 uses the 'vfat' filesystem.  not 'ntfs-3g'
[10:51] <ardchoille> airtonix: look at the bottom of ~/.bashrc and find this line PATH=$PATH , you can add to that: PATH=$PATH:~/bin
[10:51] <ath_> i have two sound devices, one onboard chipset, and one that's wacked on my gfx card: card 0: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]. I'd like to remove this device, anyone know how?
[10:51] <ardchoille> isolat3dsh33p: no, press alt+tab on your keyboard
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> NerveClasp:  ntfs-3g is for NTFS partitions/filesystems.. fat32 uses the 'vfat' filesystem.  not 'ntfs-3g'
[10:51] <meowbuntu> Dr_Willis, airtonix could i make that file hiden and it still work
[10:52] <meowbuntu> sh: inxi: not found
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  the directory nake is 'bin' not '.bin' there is no  actual 'hideing' of stuff. :)
[10:52] <kr_217> how to load ppolicy module ?
[10:52] <meowbuntu> sh: inxi: not found
[10:52] <ardchoille> airtonix: But, according to Dr_Willis it will be auto added the next time you log in
[10:52] <meowbuntu> the inxi xchat command not working
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  and once  you make a ~/bin you NEED to logout/back in (or open a new termiaal with xterm -ls perhaps.. to get it in the default path)
[10:52] <thevishy> Orion777, hi
[10:52] <kane77> is there any simple program for editing of photos (for crop, change brightness/contrast/saturation/color balance/rotate etc)?
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  or just give the full path the command for now
[10:53] <Orion777> yes
[10:53] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  or do a 'source .profile'
[10:53] <thevishy> my laptop is heating excessively since last 2 days - i have no clue whats happening
[10:53] <Mewses> hey there, my ifconfig command is telling me that im having 4 ethernet cards when i really have one, that's atleast what i think i have. And my internet doesn't work on the baseunit so im guessing that its somehow the problem, thank you.
[10:53] <meowbuntu> Dr_Willis, how
[10:53] <thevishy> any ideas that I can try out
[10:53] <dendo> UBUNTU.IT
[10:53] <isolat3dsh33p> ardchoille: I does different things. Maybe my key bindings configured different from your :D
[10:53] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: thank you for that little gem :)
[10:53] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  how what?
[10:53] <ardchoille> isolat3dsh33p: perhaps
[10:54] <dendo> COM SI fa?
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> end of the .profile script is the few lines that add bin to the default path.
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi && inxi
[10:54] <ardchoille> !it | dendo
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> oops.. wrong paste. :)
[10:54] <meowbuntu> i cant get inxi working
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
[10:54] <erUSUL> Mewses: linux systems usually have  a few "virtual" interfaces like "lookback" ( lo in ifconfig)
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  No.. you cant get your paths figured out
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  give the full path to the command and see if it works
[10:54] <isolat3dsh33p> anyway, is there any project trying to play preview for videos on mouseover while browsing in nautilus?
[10:54] <Mewses> erUSUL: I have 1 lo, eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3
[10:55]  * JerryYin test message.
[10:55] <NerveClasp> Dr_Willis so I should write something like: /dev/sdxx /media/xxxx  vfat  umask=000  0 0
[10:55] <ardchoille> hi JerryYin
[10:55] <JerryYin> Hi.
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> NerveClasp:  yes similer to that.. Mounting of 'vfat' filesystems  is documented at 100's of web sites.
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> !vfat | netyire
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> !vfat | NerveClasp
[10:55] <erUSUL> Mewses: "lshw -C Network" and "lspci" output in a pastebin please
[10:56] <erUSUL> !paste | Mewses
[10:56] <Mewses> erUSUL: roger.
[10:56] <saikatc> is it a bad idea to have a long running script run under xvfb-run?
[10:56] <Mewses> erUSUL: just going to grab my usb memory, brb in a sec
[10:56] <erUSUL> Mewses: ok
[10:56] <Psinetic_> so i'm guessing no one knows the solution to my problem?
[10:57] <NerveClasp> Dr_Willis: ThankYou!!

[10:58] <erUSUL> !details | naoshige
[10:58] <naoshige> It's a slave - it doesn't seem to connect to its master tho

[10:58] <naoshige> ok cool
[10:58] <thevishy> !heating
[10:58] <ath_> can anyone explain how to remove a sound device?
[10:59] <Psinetic_> can someone PLEASE help me get my mic to work on skype? i'm on Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, i have pulseaudio selected (because it's the only thing i can select) and i've installed gnome alsa mixer, but i can't get my mic to work at all :(
[11:00] <meowbuntu> Dr_Willis, how
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> Psinetic_:  all i ever did was just twiddle with the mixers/skype controlls for about an hr..
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  how what?
[11:00] <Newbie-Widget> does anyone know if theres a program that I can burn to cd, boot and it will allow me to boot from USB drive(s) ?
[11:00] <Mewses> erUSUL: lshw -c: http://pastie.org/740185      lspci: http://pastie.org/740186
[11:00]  * Dr_Willis points out that he has about a 30 sec attention span.. if it scrolls past the top of the screen.. its history
 meowbuntu:  or do a 'source .profile' how Dr_Willis
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> Newbie-Widget:  ive seen some disrtos that have that for their specific disrtos
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  you just did it.. 'source .profile' is the answer....
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> thats why i put it in quotes. :)
[11:01] <frogzoo> Dr_Willis's memory is history..
[11:01] <meowbuntu> Dr_Willis, type that in terminal
[11:02] <Newbie-Widget> cool, do you think it would be possible to bot that distro, but then load from usb cd drive to install a different distro ?
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  try it and see.. yes...
[11:02] <meowbuntu> nothing happens Dr_Willis
[11:02] <sheldon> back again!
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  it sourced the .profile config.. what did you expect to happen?  lights and fireworks?
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  try 'echo $PATH' now and seew what your path is
[11:03] <Dr_Willis>  echo $PATH
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> /home/willis/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[11:03] <airtonix> meowbuntu, ~/.profile will be a text file. this is mine : http://pastebin.com/f36c9cf40
[11:03] <thevishy> do u guys think ubuntu is hot - as in really hot
[11:03] <thevishy> compared to win 7
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  hot linux chix hot? or Hot Peper Hot..
[11:03] <Mewses> thevishy: i could have sex with it if my internet on the baseunit worked
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> Win7 is 'hype' not 'hot' :)
[11:03] <cmdshftn> quick question for anyone; checked in forums and couldn't find much; woke up and heard my karmic server's hard drive going, ran a ps aux over ssh and found this process running on root "dd bs=1 if=/pro"  any reason why this would be running automatically during the night?
[11:03] <thevishy> he he
[11:04] <echosystm> thevishy is a retarded troll
[11:04] <echosystm> ignore him
[11:04] <thevishy> i mean really HOT , heating :)
[11:04] <naoshige> Hi, I'm trying to relocate my BIND9 slave over to Ubuntu. It runs without errors, but it doesn't seem to sync up to the master. How do I find out what's wrong? I don't see much in /var/log/messages. Here's my named.conf files: http://pastie.org/740190
[11:04] <cmdshftn> I know dd and bs=1, not familiar with the if=/pro and why it would be running on its own
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> cmdshftn:  you sure that dident get truncated...
[11:04] <DexterLB> hi
[11:04] <Mewses> thevishy: You can cook food on the operativsystem
[11:04] <DexterLB> is there a way to make aptitude do a full-upgrade in batch mode? aptitude -y full-upgrade does it to some extent but if there's a daemon update, like samba, it asks whether or not to keep the config file which will screw everything up... is there a way to make it always take the default action?
[11:04] <airtonix> cmdshftn, sure its if=/pro and not if=/proc ?
[11:04] <frogzoo> cmdshftn: nope, someone has rogered your box
[11:04] <cmdshftn> I think it did, assume if=/proc
[11:04] <thevishy> my PC is getting very hot in ubuntu while in windows I can manage ...actually this has been happening for past 2 ays
[11:04] <thevishy> days*
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> cmdshftn:  dd bs=1 if=/proc/kmsg of=/var/run/rsyslog/kmsg
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> cmdshftn:  is normal
[11:05] <DexterLB> thevishy: what's your cpu usage?
[11:05] <naoshige> erUSUL: Can you help me now?
[11:05] <cmdshftn> Dr_Willis: that process is normal?  what is it doing?
[11:05] <frogzoo> Dr_Willis: it is? how curious
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> cmdshftn:  its doing some logging work if i recall.
[11:06] <Bragex9> still not able to get the correct resolution on my screen. It used to work before, but after reinstalling the system everything is wrong. I remember someone in here helped me the first time I got ubuntu, but I don't remember what we did. I think it was something with modelines. Here is a copy of xorg.conf and .log: http://pastebin.com/m66182141
[11:06] <erUSUL> naoshige: i have no experience with bind servers sorry
[11:06] <cmdshftn> nm, brain is starting to work and I understand; logging
[11:06] <Mewses> erUSUL: have you checked out the pastes?
[11:06] <meowbuntu> airtonix, whats it for
[11:06] <meowbuntu> do
[11:06] <erUSUL> Mewses: doing now...
[11:06] <ath_> I have two audio devices, one that i use which is onboard, and the other that i don't use that came with the graphics card, I think that the graphics card's audio device is causing problems, so I'd like to remove / disable it. In alsamixer i can't even get to my real audio device because the useless one always shows.
[11:06] <Mewses> ok.
[11:06] <cmdshftn> frogzoo: I'm hoping that this box isn't compromised as I don't have it exposed to external network right now
[11:06] <ath_> Does anyone know how?
[11:07] <airtonix> cmdshftn, dd (convert and copy file ) bs=1 (read and write bytes at a time) if=/proc (read from file instead of stdin)
[11:07] <cmdshftn> thanks all for quick response!
[11:07] <thevishy> CPU usage is like 5-20 %
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> ath_:  thers the pavucontrol    command you may want to try. I forget how to select other audio devices.
[11:08] <erUSUL> Mewses: nothing wrong you actually have four ethernet cards in your system
[11:08] <Mewses> erUSUL: o.o
[11:08] <airtonix> meowbuntu, the text file ( ~/.profile ) ?
[11:08] <erUSUL> Mewses: see the last four lines of lspci
[11:08] <kane77> is there any simple program for editing of photos (for crop, change brightness/contrast/saturation/color balance/rotate etc)?
[11:08] <airtonix> meowbuntu, i assume its for setting up per user global variables.
[11:08] <ath_> thanks Dr_Willis, installing pavucontrol now and will have a look
[11:08] <Mewses> erUSUL: yep
[11:08] <erUSUL> Mewses: maybe is a high end multiport card
[11:08] <frogzoo> !gimp
[11:09] <feline> Hi, I'm trying to create a bootable USB of the netbook remix of Ubuntu for a netbook I will be getting soon. My current computer is a mac and the instructions on the website say that to create a bootable USB on a mac I must have a .img file because a .iso won't work, however the only download link I can find is for the .iso. Can anyone point me towards a download link for the .img of the ubuntu netbook remix?
[11:09] <erUSUL> kane77: gthumb /photo manager/viewer) can do most of those things
[11:09] <meowbuntu> airtonix, can you run the inxi comands in terminal yet.
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> feline:  the .img stuff was for the old netbook release. the new one is .iso
[11:09] <airtonix> !info gthumb | kane77,
[11:10] <Mewses> erUSUL: probably, but then. could the router be the problem? since the internet does not work. I have tried to make the ip static and so on. I got the net working yesterday all of a sudden for no particular reason, then when i RS'ed the computer the net went down again.
[11:10] <airtonix> kane77, much simplier than gimp and does what you just described
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> feline:  im not sure if you can use the .iso directly as you would a .img
[11:10] <airtonix> meowbuntu, yes
[11:10] <erUSUL> kane77: very good program; far better than f-spot imho :)
[11:10] <ath_> Dr_Willis, but doesn't 9.10 ship with alsa as default?
[11:10] <cmdshftn> you might be able to use disk utility to convert the iso to an img
[11:10] <meowbuntu> i cant whats comand again
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> ath_:  alsa is used by pulse audio..  so yes...
[11:10] <erUSUL> Mewses: can you ┬½ ping www.google.com ┬╗ if not what is the exact error?
[11:10] <airtonix> meowbuntu, one sec
[11:10] <meowbuntu> airtonix, can you run them in xchat
[11:10] <Newbie-Widget> What's the difference between "Alternate" and "Desktop" versions ?
[11:11] <erUSUL> !alternate | Newbie-Widget
[11:11] <nonix4_> How do I tell apt to use forget a negative DNS reply?
[11:11] <ath_> huh, Dr_Willis, afaik I don't have pulseaudio unless it ships with 9.10, which would explain why pavucontrol won't work
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> Newbie-Widget:   alt- has a text based installer.
[11:11] <nonix4_> to use DNS and not to use cached negative reply that is?
[11:11] <cem> s+
[11:11] <Mewses> erUSUL: unknown host google.com, and i have setup a DDNS at dyndyns.com
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> ath_:  pulse audio is used by gnome..  pulse audio run on top of 'alsa'
[11:11] <Mewses> erUSUL: its connected to the router, the status is "ok"
[11:11] <airtonix> meowbuntu, confirm for me please that you have inxi in ~/bin
[11:11] <four> can someone tell me how to get rid of the ubuntu icon beside the main menu?
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> ath_:  a default ubuntu install has gnome -> pulse audio -> alsa -> the kernel sound card drivers.. (is how they work together)
[11:12] <ath_> Dr_Willis, i'm using kde.
[11:12] <erUSUL> Mewses: if you do ┬½ ping <IP_ADDRESS> ┬╗ ?
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> ath_:  No idea then. I dont use kde
[11:12] <kane77> airtonix, erUSUL thanks I will try that
[11:12] <Newbie-Widget> ty guys :)
[11:12] <feline> Dr_Willis: so how do I go about installing the current release onto a USB stick using a mac?
[11:12] <erUSUL> !unetbootin
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> feline:  no idea. that pendrivelinux.com site may have some guides
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> feline:  im not sure if unetbootin even has a mac port yet.
[11:13] <Mewses> erUSUL: From <IP_ADDRESS> icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> feline:  or if you have linux allready installed somewhere. You can use grub2 and make it boot an .iso file from the flashdrive
[11:13] <thevishy> DexterLB, My CPU usage hovers round 5-20 usually with Firefox Xchat Sys Monitor and a usual My Computer running
[11:13] <erUSUL> Mewses: paste the output of ┬½ ip a ┬╗ and ┬½ ip route ┬╗
[11:14] <thevishy> this is why I am getting puzzled
[11:14] <Mewses> erUSUL: which commands? newbie
[11:14] <mater> hello
[11:14] <meowbuntu> air its in there now
[11:14] <Mewses> erUSUL: nvm
[11:14] <mater> any greek
[11:14] <meowbuntu> airtonix,  its in there now
[11:14] <erUSUL> Mewses: those two ┬½ ip a ┬╗ and ┬½ ip route ┬╗
[11:14] <airtonix> meowbuntu, and is it set to executable ?
[11:14] <DexterLB> thevishy: is that the real CPU usage or only the one by "running" processes?
[11:14] <erUSUL> !gr | mater
[11:15] <thevishy> And the I am facing this problem ever since I upgraded the Kernel - now both kernels are behaving similarly though
[11:15] <meowbuntu> airtonix, how to do that
[11:15] <thevishy> I am checking in System Monitor DexterLB
[11:15] <airtonix> meowbuntu, (in terminal ) chmod +x ./inxi
[11:15] <nonix4_> oh that was just cached by apt-cacher-ng... restarting that helped :)
[11:15] <airtonix> meowbuntu, (in terminal ) chmod +x ~/bin/inxi
[11:16] <thevishy> recently I did  a update and ever since like this
[11:16] <meowbuntu> airtonix, chmod +x ./inxi
[11:16] <meowbuntu> chmod: cannot access `./inxi': No such file or direct
[11:16] <airtonix> meowbuntu, see my last message
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  it may be time to read up on some basic bash/shell ussage. You are proberly doing somthing trivial wrong.
[11:16] <DexterLB> thevishy the only gui app that I know that shows the real cpu usage is the usage indicator applket for gnome-panel. Or just use htop in the command line
[11:17] <meowbuntu> airtonix, done with no output in terminal
[11:17] <airtonix> meowbuntu, good, now you should be able to type ~/bin/inxi
[11:17] <thevishy> i am checking via TOP also , it reflects the same readings
[11:17] <meowbuntu> Dr_Willis, no i am not exec is not configured to run yet like in linux mint.
[11:17] <Newbie-Widget> I want to try Net boot, can anyone recomend a boot manager I can put onto my Windows machine to host the install CD ?
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  huh?  that made no sence tome.
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> !install | Newbie-Widget
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> Newbie-Widget:  i think that url mentions such tools.
[11:19] <Newbie-Widget> i checked out those links earlier, but couldnt see anything about tools
[11:19] <Dr_Willis> Newbie-Widget:  and i think theres more to it then justhosting the install cd
[11:19] <Newbie-Widget> :( hmm
[11:19] <Dr_Willis> !netboot
[11:19] <meowbuntu> airtonix, thats great although i cant properly see the output as its the wrong colour. how can i change terminal settings or at least background colour to black.
[11:19] <Dr_Willis> I seem to recall some ubuntu variant that set itself up as a 'netboot' server.. but  i forget where i saw it at
[11:20] <airtonix> meowbuntu, you are using gnome-terminal yes?
[11:20] <meowbuntu> airtonix, applications.accessaries.terminal. the default one that is
[11:20] <meowbuntu> there
[11:21] <meowbuntu> airtonix, yes gniome terminal
[11:21] <airtonix> meowbuntu, ok edit -> profile preferences -> colours
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> set the background color to be Hot Pink.. It will attract the linux-chicks :)
[11:21] <airtonix> meowbuntu, untick "use colours  from system theme'
[11:22] <erUSUL> Newbie-Widget: reading here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot what you neeed is a tftp server for windows

[11:32] <Ascavasaion> Is there a way that I can leave a chat client/Instant Messenger/etc. running in terminals on a machine at home, and then from work to connect to the home machine with like a ssh connection and take over control of those applicatons and run them from work.  and then when I log off from work it must disconnect and allow the process/applications to continue running without a break.
[11:32] <Mewses> erUSUL: i can ping google.com now

[11:33] <Mewses> erUSUL: Let me just restart my computer to see if it works :)
[11:33] <erUSUL> avishek: probably ubuntu sever does not have the goodies for automatic mount that the desktop edition has? you may have to mount it manually
[11:35] <avishek> erUSUL, I tried cat /proc/scsi/scsi on both systems, but the server edition doesn't even detect it. Is there any equivalent in Ubunutu for rescan-scsi-bus -i command

[11:38] <progre55> oh wtf :D I'm in the wrong channel :))

[11:38] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  if you want some REXX coding help... :)
[11:38] <g3nt3lg1ant> can anyone help me to get my sound working???
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  tell the channel what you have done/tried/and what failed.
[11:39] <meowbuntu> after i have installed updates on ubuntu 9.10 my computer laggs mini freezes peeks out my cpu alot more than it did. in the few days of running without updates it worked great. .
[11:39] <progre55> Dr_Willis: haha )) appreciate :D damn, ##java used to be my default channel :D I feel so stupid now )))
[11:39] <sheldon> i download the drivers
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  comal is the best. :)
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  be specific.. downloaded what exactly?
[11:39] <sheldon> i used wine to install them
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  i see a problem here allready...
[11:40] <sheldon> ok
[11:40] <progre55> Dr_Willis: and what is comal?
[11:40] <sheldon> first
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> You dont use wine to install windows drivers on a linux box. :) you use teh package manager/restricted-drivers tool to install the proper linux drivers for your hardware
[11:40] <avishek> erUSUL: it's a no-go; I'm trying with usbmount -- let's see waht happens
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  an old old programing language

[11:41] <mmaksimov> Hi. I've set the gnome panel to autohide (only one is active, I've got very small primary display), but suddenly it is refusing to hide. Playing with panel properties does not help. I think a logoff may help, but I don't want to. Any other suggestions? I'm running ubuntu 9.10.
[11:41] <erUSUL> avishek: you should be checking dmesg messages maybe there is some error
[11:41] <isolat3dsh33p> !help > isolat3dsh33p
[11:42] <sheldon> i tried with ndisgtk but needs an inf not exe
[11:42] <avishek> erUSUL, thank you - I'll do so
[11:42] <Shwack> mmaksimov: killall gome-panel
[11:42] <erUSUL> Rods_Tiger: the screensaver that loops over a photo directory? any photoviewer with fullscreen mode?
[11:42] <Salvad> I installed the Kubuntu-desktop package with all the packages that it installed.
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  have you checked the forums foryour exact specific wireless card? and you did check in the System-Admin-> hardware drivers  tool to see what it suggests?
[11:43] <sheldon> yes
[11:43] <Salvad> I want to uninstall it with all the packages it installed.
[11:43] <Salvad> How can I do that?
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> !pure-gnome | Salvad
[11:43] <mmaksimov> Shwack: thanks, that did help.
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> !puregnome | Salvad
[11:43] <Shwack> mmaksimov: no problem :)
[11:43] <Salvad> I see different ways in here.
[11:44] <sheldon> sys admin drivers ati drivers only
[11:44] <kaduk> Hi
[11:44] <kaduk> how to make tablet working
[11:44] <kaduk> I am getting permission denied
[11:44] <kaduk> I created file in /etc/udev/rules.d for that
[11:44] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  ive not had to mess with the ndiswrapper stuff in years. so cant really help more then to suggest looking on the forums for people using the exact same card and seeing what they did.
[11:44] <kaduk> but it does not change permissions
[11:45] <kaduk> just creates symlink
[11:45] <kaduk> any help?
[11:45] <Salvad> Mmm. it seems the first ones was to invoke the bot.
[11:45] <sheldon> Dr_Willis: thnx could yo tell me how do i make a partition of ntfs
[11:46] <Salvad> But, I have Gnome already installed.
[11:46] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  if you want to shrink a ntfs filesystem and make a second unallocated partition. I would use windows - it has tools for that. Or gparted can also do it.
[11:46] <Salvad> Should I do this?
[11:46] <Dr_Willis> Salvad:  removing of the kde stuff may remove some extra bits that the ubuntu-desktop package then reinstalls
[11:47] <Salvad> I want to remove the KDE programs.
[11:47] <xjkx> i have a sis video card, I believe my xorg uses vesa driver, i want to change it but xorg.conf no more available in ubuntu 9.10, first: how can I check what video driver I'm using ? second: how do i change it ?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> !purgegnome | Salvad
[11:48] <Salvad> Not QT libraries.
[11:48] <sheldon> Dr_Willis: i do not have an ntfs and when i did one with gparted adn then tried to install windows did not recognise it as ntfs
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> !puregnome
[11:48] <King_Arthur> if I install edubuntu does it default to a kde desktop? If so how can I switch it back to gnome?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> xjkx: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-sis/+question/93548
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  windows ignores linux partitions/filesstems - if you want a placce to install windows to. then leave part of the hard drive 'unallocated' - windows can then format/use that unallocated space Normally.
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> sheldon:  or use gparted to just make an empty ntfs partition.
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> King_Arthur: you can log off, change the session to gnome, log back on
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> Salvad:  then fire up the package manager and remove the various kde programs you dont want.
[11:49] <Rods_Tiger> erusul - well, that's not what I asked for, that's a feeble hacked up alternative
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> King_Arthur: the bottom right of the logon screen has a session switcher
[11:49] <mmaksimov> Dr_Willis: is it possible to format a partition to NTFS in (ubuntu) linux?
[11:49] <Rods_Tiger> is there any proper photoframe software for ubuntu
[11:49] <King_Arthur> ActionParsnip when I do updates will it take longer?
[11:50] <Dr_Willis> mmaksimov:  use gparted and have the proper support package instlled.. yes.
[11:50] <sheldon> Dr_Willis: thnx i am going to try again then
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> King_Arthur: yes as you have more packages to upgrade
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: photoframe?
[11:50] <Rods_Tiger> yes, photoframe
[11:50] <Rods_Tiger> not screensaver, not photo organiser set to slideshow
[11:51] <King_Arthur> ActionParsnip thanks!
[11:51] <Rods_Tiger> there are plenty of photoframes in the shops, but apparently none of this has impacted the linux world
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: so you want an pp to just display a single image and not change with no desktop icons in the way?
[11:51] <Pelo> morning folks, where do I disable "services" in karmic, there use to be an app for that but I can'T find it in the admin menu anymore
[11:51] <Rods_Tiger> of course not
[11:52] <sde> well if there isn't any software that does want you want, write it yourself
[11:52] <Rods_Tiger> how ?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: i'm just clarifying the requirement
[11:52] <xjkx> ActionParsnip: thanks, will try that
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> Python is the normal answer to that. :)
[11:52] <Rods_Tiger> that's an utterly stupid response - writing it myself is ridiculous
[11:52] <sde> no, it's a perfectly sensible suggestion
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> Pelo:  depends on whats  handling the service.   Upstart is replaceing the sysv system. so 'bum' can handle some services. but not all.
[11:52] <Cesy> Can anyone help me? I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and it overrode all my grub settings.
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: its not, how do you think all the apps you use got made?
[11:53] <Pelo> Dr_Willis, I made a media box out of an old comp, I just want to get rid of bluetooth and cups and stuff like that
[11:53] <Rods_Tiger> the thing is, there are so many photoframes out there that are on offer, and people are buying them, but the big ones are highly expensive - I'd have thought that the linux people would be going round saying that you don't need to buy one, just create your own using a spare computer and xyz photoframe software for it
[11:53] <Rods_Tiger> I've no idea how all the apps I use get made - in a software factory probably
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> Pelo:  you could fire up the package manager and remove those services.
[11:54] <adliblotus> Hello.
[11:54] <sde> software factory, lol
[11:54] <Rods_Tiger> I've never considered how it's manufactured - never needed to
[11:54] <llutz> Rods_Tiger: take photo-viewer of your choice, fullscreen, done. what was your issue?
[11:54] <Pelo> Dr_Willis, plan B , I just didn'T feel like figureing out the dependencies
[11:54] <pjsm> hi
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> Pelo:  for removeing things.. it shouldent matter.. it will remove  the stuff it needs to
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: no, each is made by ssmall groups of buddys making apps because what they need doesn't exist or doesnt suit their needs
[11:55] <pjsm> i need some help :x
[11:55] <Rods_Tiger> what photoviewer is the photoviewer of my choice that properly emulates a photoframe?
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: so coding your own is in now way ridiculous at all
[11:55] <Dr_Willis> Pelo:  if you just want to stop the services - remove the prper .conf files and script links (with bum) from /etc/init/ and /etc/rc2.d
[11:55] <Migi32> do we really have not a single decent program capable of producing SWF's?
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: isnt that flash?
[11:55] <Pelo> Dr_Willis,k
[11:56] <Migi32> ActionParsnip, SWF's is flash, yes
[11:56] <Dr_Willis> swf = shockwave I thought...
[11:56] <CShadowRun> Dr_Willis: flash is closed source and proprietary, we can't do anything about the fact that they refuse to create tools for linux
[11:56] <ardchoille> ActionParsnip: shockwave flash, yeah
[11:56] <ManDay> Does anyone use GIMP-Shop?
[11:56] <CShadowRun> Dr_Willis: there isn't even a shockwave client for linux
[11:56] <mmaksimov> Rods_Tiger: what are your requirements for "emulating photoframe"?
[11:56] <Dr_Willis> CShadowRun:  Oh the Huge-manatee of it all! :)
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: flash is closed source preoprietary to Adobe so the only people who can really make it, is adobe and thats not gonna happen as Adobe are douches
[11:56] <CShadowRun> indeed :P
[11:56] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: lol
[11:57] <Migi32> :(
[11:57] <Tm_T> ActionParsnip: no need to call names though
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> Tm_T: to adobe, its never enough
[11:57] <pjsm> someone have time to try help me? :/
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: could try imagemagik, it can display images
[11:57] <adliblotus> Does anyone here use a normal DSL modem instead of a router?

[11:58] <oCean_> Rods_Tiger: or feh (image viewer)
[11:59] <Migi32> we need to make some kind of open-source alternative, but the problem is that the client for that would have to fight its way up (and will most likely never be as spread as adobe's)

[12:02] <Migi32> adliblotus, ok, accepted :)
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> it is a tad bloated though

[12:05] <adliblotus> By the way, does anyone here know how much time it takes for an ISP to use my old IP for another user? I mean, when I plug out my modem, there is no connection anymore. Does anyone know how many minutes it takes until the provider can use this IP for another person?
[12:05] <K|nG> Kottizen: adduser -m
[12:05] <adliblotus> Firsst of all, I would like to apologize for my horrible English.
[12:06] <Kottizen> K|nG: thanks
[12:06] <K|nG> Kottizen: nothing :)
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> adliblotus:  could be any amount of time. from a few min to a few hours.. it just depends on the isp
[12:06] <ath_> adliblotus, its different for different ISPs
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> adliblotus:  some isp's may keep your ip the same for weeks on end
[12:06] <ath_> every network can have a different DHCP Lease time.
[12:06] <K|nG> Dr_Willis: any help ?
[12:06] <adliblotus> Okay, thanks for the help.

I want that sort of thing, but using a computer and monitor I already have.
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> xjkx:  from how i read that.. it loads vesa, and fbdev.. then unloads them because it sees it  can use 'SiS'

[12:21] <pjsm> airtonix on windows this connect auto, and, with 32 bits the internet works, but with 64 just google works x)
[12:22] <Rods_Tiger> legend2440: no, from an existing computer
[12:23] <airtonix> pjsm, you also need to mention this (that you are using 64bit version of ubuntu) and you also need to mention how you connect to the internet (via wifi modem or adsl router modem or ethernet cable modem...)
[12:23] <xjkx> Dr_Willis: i found this website with drivers that seems to be new, but i'm too newbie http://ncc-1701a.homelinux.net/~linux-sis/index.php?page=Downloads like, i wouldn't know if i had to download sismedia(the first driver in the list) or xorg-driver-sis671_0.9_i386.deb also, in this one there seems to be other files to download like sysctrl and such

[12:33] <llutz> why does all those guys think reinstallation will solve their issues....
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> llutz:  windows training.
[12:33] <naoshige> I need to reinstall bind9 so I can get back the default files into /etc/bind, but apt-get remove bind9 && apt-get install bind9 didn't do the trick. Any thoughts?
[12:33] <Sacho> llutz: because it works on windows
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> naoshige:  use the 'purge' option. not 'remove' option.
[12:33] <naoshige> i tried that too actually
[12:33] <hamzaatova2> wh y is that?   http://yfrog.com/ca36511413p
[12:33] <hamzaatova2> why i cant connect the internet with the guest user????
[12:33] <naoshige> or wait instead of remove?
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> naoshige:  yes.. purge = deletes all the config files also

[12:40] <llutz> ghabit: or do you want just to mirror an existing repo?

[13:05] <mka> Anyway I am here for my wifi card problem and am still stuck for months
[13:05] <llutz> svinoba: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[13:05] <thevishy> can I modify trip_point ?
[13:06] <mka> thevishy, which trip point?
[13:06] <thevishy> ---> nishant@ubuntu:/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM$ cat trip_points
[13:06] <thevishy> i want to change the passive value to 80, would that help make my fan power up at a lower temp ?
[13:06] <mka> thevishy, YES YOU CAN!
[13:07] <thevishy> will this serve the purpose ? mka also is it advised ?
[13:07] <llutz> thevishy: try "echo 80 >trip_points" as root
[13:07] <svinoba> llutz: there is no file by that name.
[13:07] <mka> thevishy, I think you can change that at your BIOS settings
[13:07] <mka> thevishy, and it depends on how you use your computer
[13:07] <llutz> svinoba: svinoba apt-cache policy xorg
[13:07] <thevishy> the file looks like critical (S5):           98 C
[13:07] <thevishy> passive:                 90 C: tc1=2 tc2=3 tsp=50 devices=CPU0
[13:07] <thevishy> right mka
[13:08] <thevishy> llutz, not sure that echo command would work ?
[13:08] <thevishy> mka, any daemons to be restarted ?
[13:09] <mka> thevishy, I dont think so, why don't you do that at BIOS level?
[13:09] <svinoba> llutz: it says installed none. thats what i was wondering why a lvm install failed to install X.
[13:09] <thevishy> right
[13:09] <ardchoille> echo "80" | sudo tee -a trip_points
[13:09] <kc2> 14
[13:09] <svinoba> can i try installing from the cd? i mean what command to use cd as source?
[13:09] <rdb> packages.ubuntu.com is down?
[13:09] <thevishy> i feel the new kernel / updates are causing the problem
[13:10] <mka> thevishy, ardchoille remember that even if this works, it will be only temporary
[13:10] <ardchoille> mka: yeah
[13:10] <llutz> svinoba: maybe with alternate-cd, not with the live-cd
[13:11] <thevishy> ok
[13:11] <svinoba> llutz: i do have alternate cd
[13:11] <svinoba> which command to use to install from cd?
[13:11] <llutz> svinoba: enable it in your sources.list and try
[13:11] <svinoba> ok.
[13:12] <mka> which module is responsible to drive the atheros wifi cards? is it ath5k or ath_pci or none of them? I am busy hacking my wifi

[13:21] <nikhil_> can anyone help?
[13:21] <linxeh> mka: you could copy the debs, and do dpkg -i or something. I'll probably get shouted at for that
[13:21] <Frost_> works fine in fullscreen
[13:21] <linxeh> mka: I usually mirror the ubuntu repository for that purpose, and keep it up-to-date with rsync

[13:23] <mka> linxeh, dpkg -i * will not work fine
[13:23] <nikhil_> llutz, how would i do that?
[13:23] <thevishy> i think its some lm-sensors , why dont I see anything when i install xsensor and run it ?
[13:23] <llutz> nikhil_: that should be default-behaviour. look into your pppd-options

[13:46] <misterB> anybody ever had a problem empty folders in ubuntu? Trying to delete a folder (rm -rf folder_name), and it says the folder is not empty. However when I open it, there appears to be nothing in it. When trying to browse the folder from terminal I get the following error: ls: reading directory .: Input/output error. The folder resides on a drive formatted in NTFS.
[13:46] <grawity> Ersoy: There's gmailfs, if I remember correctly.
[13:46] <ardchoille> user01: gnash is the open source version of flash
[13:46] <grawity> !info gmailfs

[13:47] <naoshige> Hello. I'm trying to get the transfer working between my DNS slave (Ubuntu) and master (FreeBSD). The master is using pf as the firewall, with ports 53 TCP and UDP open.

[13:47] <Ersoy> grawity, thanks
[13:47] <ardchoille> !info gmailfs jaunty
[13:47] <nordhri> grawity, I am not sure where it is in there... I have it open.
[13:47] <regex> when making a usb/flash disk bootable, is unetbootin the only required app for this? or is there more to it?
[13:47] <ardchoille> grawity: gmailfs is only available in jaunty
[13:47] <naoshige> Anybody know?
[13:48] <grawity> nordhri: Did you configure the master to allow zone transfers to slave? Try 'dig @masterdns somedomain.org axfr'
[13:48] <nordhri> found it.. thanks a bunch!
[13:48] <nordhri> I was misreading it before.
[13:49] <nordhri> someone just said that gnash is open source flash.. isn't gnash just a swf viewer?
[13:49] <Dr_Willis> regex:  unetbootin does it all on windows.  on linux it might require you to install syslinux whioch it uses.
[13:50] <ardchoille> !info gnash | nordhri

[13:50] <rick__> rythmbox and gtkpod both see my ipod video 60bg, but neither can actually see the 3000+ tracks of music I have on it.  anyone have any ideas?
[13:50] <nordhri> Right.. so its not exactly an OS version of Flash...
[13:50] <user01> ardchoille, thesew instructions say its possible to have gmailfs in karmic https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+package/gmailfs
[13:50] <nordhri> would be cool if there was one.
[13:50] <regex> dr_willis so after installing fedorra on my flash pen, i should edit bios to boot of my usb, and it should sstart working?
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> regex:  it should.
[13:50] <regex> thanks
[13:51] <ardchoille> user01: I was saying that it isn't in the karmic repos
[13:51] <user01> ardchoille, ah ok
[13:51] <dns53> nordhri it also handles java script so it should be fine with glash games as well

[13:52] <thevishy> it just shows a blank screen infact it appears like a battery icon in the desktop and I have to expand it
[13:53] <thevishy> nevermind :)
[13:53] <thevishy> anyone who knows
[13:53] <user01> ardchoille, and latest release of phun :)
[13:53] <dns53> nordhri i do not know of any editor for flash files but viewing them should be fine
[13:53] <nordhri> dns53, excellent. Thanks!
[13:54] <HOTTTTTTT> HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! please ,  I can't shutdown my notebook on ubuntu 9.10

[13:54] <coz_> HOTTTTTTT,  hold down the power button for about 10 seconds
[13:54] <wolfey_> HOTTTTTTT:  that will do
[13:54] <mika_> Hi all!
[13:54] <nordhri> dns53, you just helped convert a buddy of mine to Linux.. lol
[13:54] <user01> i hope audio will work in ubuntu soon . . . i think its pulseaudio that keeps breaking for me
[13:55] <mika_> Does anybody got N-standard WLAN here?
[13:55] <misterB> HOTTTTTTT: did you try the shutdown command from terminal?
[13:55] <HOTTTTTTT> I know about that way wolfey_,  but i want any others way to shutdown automatically.
[13:55] <tom967> hi
[13:56] <HOTTTTTTT> misterB wow can I do that?
[13:56] <HOTTTTTTT> sorry How
[13:56] <nordhri> HOTTTTTTT, what if you hold CTRL + ALT + Del
[13:56] <wolfey_> HOTTTTTTT: sudo halt
[13:56] <mika_> i have rt3070 module installed (TW-WLAN 802.11g/n) and it works only with G-standard (i have dlink router with N-standard)
[13:56] <coz_> thevishy,   did you run sudo sensors-detect  ?
[13:57] <misterB> open a terminal window and type shutdown 0
[13:57] <hyperstream_> hey guys in karmic where is the xorg.conf or the file i set my mode lines in for my monitor ?
[13:57] <wolfey_> misterB: set 'mixed mode' on router?
[13:57] <wolfey_> mika_:
[13:57] <thevishy> no i will try it now
[13:57] <coz_> hyperstream_,  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:57] <coz_> if it is there
[13:57] <hyperstream_> coz_,  doesnt exist
[13:57] <nordhri> wolfey_, any experience with Ubuntu on a NetBook?
[13:57] <hyperstream_> thats the case on all my new installs of karmic recently
[13:57] <coz_> hyperstream_,  you could generate one
[13:58] <wolfey_> nordhri: no netbook, ThinkPad's work pretty well
[13:58] <mika_> wolfey_ :) what?
[13:58] <hyperstream_> coz_, how can i generate one please mate
[13:58] <coz_> hyperstream_,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[13:58] <nordhri> wolfey_, I am planning a move and thought about a netbook for the travel time.
[13:58] <thevishy> coz_, thanks that seems to help
[13:58] <dAlfa89_> hyperstream_, that's because Karmic generally doesn't use xorg.conf anymore, which is why you're not finding one on your Karmic installs
[13:58] <coz_> thevishy,  no problem
[13:58] <wolfey_> mika_: i have B/G router. if i set G only, B devices like smartphone wont be able to connect, if i set 'mixed mode', both B and G work.

[13:58] <TheStickman> Been experiencing a strange slowdown when typing in Firefox. System seems to just stop for a moment. Cursor still flashes and I can call up restart window via ctrl, alt, delete and reboot most of the time. I usually have Firefox, Thunderbird & Pidgin running at the same time when this occurs. Slowdown lasts for 30 seconds up to 2 minutes. When it hits the 2 minute mark I reboot/shutdown. Any ideas on why or what is going o
[13:58] <wolfey_> nordhri: lately i've seen they've got netbook versions too
[13:58] <FloodBot1> TheStickman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:59] <mika_> wolf yeah..well i have set it only to work with N....
[13:59] <mika_> because i dont want G
[13:59] <hyperstream_> dAlfa89_,  on 2 of my machines its only getting 800x600 max with nvidia drivers
[13:59] <nordhri> wolfey_, yes, I saw that and thought I would ask.. =)
[13:59] <TheStickman> sorry that was considered a flood
[13:59] <wolfey_> nordhri: didnt try it :D
[13:59] <thevishy> there are no sensors in this comp its old one

[13:59] <nordhri> wolfey_, no worries
[14:00] <misterB> Any one know how to delete a folder that won't delete with 'rm -rf folder_name'?

[14:00] <TheStickman> core 2duo 2ghz 3gigs ram Toshiba laptop...running 9.10...having periodic slowdowns where system seems to lock up
[14:00] <francisfelidae> Help! this is urgent: how do I create a hardlink from an Inode?
[14:00] <ardchoille> misterB: does the folder name begin with a dash?
[14:00] <TheStickman> usually running FF, Thunderbird and Pidgin at same time
[14:00] <TheStickman> all updates installed
[14:01] <nordhri> Thanks a bunch for the support here folks. You've helped me and a friend tonight. He's convinced that Linux has a better community than Windows.
[14:01] <grawity> ardchoille: Read scrollback. It doesn't
[14:01] <misterB> ardchoille: I changed the name to 'del' and still didn't work
[14:01] <dns53>  misterB is the folder owned by you? you may need to su to root then delete it
[14:01] <nikhil_> help, please! i have a modem working with wvdial, how do i get it working with network manager
[14:01] <TheStickman> any ideas on what I am having slowdown issues?
[14:01] <grawity> nordhri: If it's a NTFS issue, maybe booting into Windows would help? Its 'chkdsk' can fix a lot of NTFS-related issues...

[14:01] <ardchoille> misterB: check permissions?
[14:01] <nordhri> grawity, huh?
[14:01] <wolfey_> TheStickman: 'gkrellm' or 'gkrellm2' is good to monitor it
[14:01] <grawity> nordhri: Eh, tab-completion failure. Ignore that.
[14:01] <TheStickman> thanks, wolfey
[14:02] <nordhri> grawity, no worries
[14:02] <wolfey_> core2 notebooks arent really designed to work all the time
[14:02] <grawity> misterB: if it's NTFS, try running 'chkdsk' on Windows? Fixes a lot of stuff.
[14:02] <hyperstream_> coz_, i just ran that and it didnt generate one
[14:02] <francisfelidae> llutz:  I could't find in the manpage any references to inodes
[14:02] <hyperstream_> coz_,  is there a way to tell where it was put or what its using
[14:02] <linxeh> or just buy a decent laptop that is designed to run all the time
[14:02] <airtonix> !who
[14:02] <nordhri> ^^raven^^, cool name.. good to see a fellow Raven
[14:03] <grawity> francisfelidae: Is the file still open by a process?
[14:03] <coz_> hyperstream_, oooo
[14:03] <goshcore> need help in installing wtorrent .. i fail thie first line :(
[14:03] <misterB> ardchoille, dns53: error says folder's not empty. Window view shows it is, and terminal give an I/O error on ls
[14:03] <wolfey_> linxeh: i guess.. i have akasa external cooling too. still cant run BOINC more than 40% all the time
[14:03] <nordhri> thanks again guys!
[14:03] <mika_> im just curious to know that does anybody linux user got worked that N-standard WLAN?
[14:03] <coz_> hyperstream_,  out of curiosity .. which video card do you have?
[14:03] <aliquerer> could anyone helt with LyX?
[14:03] <wolfey_> linxeh: at 100% its disaster
[14:03] <hyperstream_> coz_,  nvidia, ive also tried a ATI card
[14:03] <ardchoille> misterB: seems to be NTFS, I've never used NTFS
[14:03] <ja> :D
[14:04] <hyperstream_> coz_, doesnt detect the monitor
[14:04] <coz_> hyperstream_,  did you already install the nvidia driver?
[14:04] <linxeh> wolfey_: some laptops are designed for such use
[14:04] <sg> Hi all! I have a new MSI U115 with Intel GMA 500 (Pouslbo). Has anyone experience with it and running Linux on it?
[14:04] <francisfelidae> grawity:  yes
[14:04] <wolfey_> linxeh: i guess
[14:04] <francisfelidae> grawity:  (by wget)
[14:04] <ja> reinstal driver ?
[14:04] <grawity> francisfelidae: And you rm'd it while downloading?
[14:04] <hyperstream_> coz_,  altho in this machine my gx260 picks it all up fine, Yes i have installed the lastest and second to last Restricted hardware drivers, and both failed to go over 800x600
[14:05] <karelia> how do i use update-rc.d to list what packages run at boot
[14:05] <hyperstream_> coz_,  i uninstalled the restricted each time, i changed driver or card
[14:05] <francisfelidae> grawity:  yes, kinda
[14:05] <coz_> hyperstream_, mmm   did you reboot  after installing the nvidia driver?
[14:05] <hyperstream_> coz_, yes both times
[14:05] <llutz> francisfelidae: ln /proc/<pid>/fd/<handle> /path/you/need
[14:05] <grawity> francisfelidae: Find out the PID of that wget process. Then type 'ls -l /proc/<pid of wget>/fd', and it'll list all open file descriptors...
[14:05] <aliquerer> Could anyone help with LyX?
[14:05] <hyperstream_> coz_, and for onboard and the ATI card
[14:05] <coz_> hyperstream_,  mm  out of curosity   in terminl    lspci | grep -i vga
[14:05] <grawity> francisfelidae: Then 'cat /proc/<pid>/fd/<handle> > new_file_name'
[14:06] <llutz> francisfelidae: needs to find out the fd-handle
[14:06] <coz_> hyperstream_,  you have both drivers installed now?
[14:06] <dns53> misterB it seems like there is something wrong with the drive, connect it to windows and do a checkdisk or unmount it in linux and use fsck.ntfs to check it
[14:06] <syk> this is my grub.cfg, i have several boot options and im not sure which ones to remove from here http://paste.ubuntu.com/339590/
[14:06] <grawity> llutz: You cannot do that, because: 1) /proc is a virtual filesystem, you cannot hardlink between two filesystems
[14:06] <llutz> grawity: argh, right, sry
[14:06] <grawity> francisfelidae: OTOH, it probably will not work...
[14:06] <misterB> dns53: will try that, but it might be worth mentioning that the problem is only with one folder
[14:06] <naoshige> Why can't I connect to my master DNS server from my Ubuntu box? (i.e. telnet <master IP> 53) I can from other boxes. Does Ubuntu have some default firewall setting blocking this perhaps?
[14:06] <karelia> i want avahi removed!
[14:06] <karelia> it bugs me
[14:07] <grawity> llutz: 2) the things in /proc/*/fd are merely symlinks (and I just realized that my suggestion is not going to work either)
[14:07] <grawity> karelia: Any particular reason?
[14:07] <hyperstream_> coz_,  no i uninstall the old driver before installing a new CARD, or different nvidia Driver, or use the onboard.
[14:07] <karelia> it's offensive
[14:07] <grawity> naoshige: sudo iptables -L
[14:07] <grawity> karelia: How exactly?
[14:07] <karelia> what it does, i dont want the capability
[14:07] <Ian_Corne> compiz + ati 4870 = no direct rendering?
[14:07] <naoshige> grawity: http://pastie.org/740291
[14:07] <karelia> it presumes i need it. i dont
[14:07] <coz_> hyperstream_,  ok so the ati driver is NOT installed right now correct?
[14:07] <hyperstream_> coz_,  output of lspic .. - VGA Compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 )GeForce 6600] ( rev a )
[14:08] <coz_> hyperstream_,  ok
[14:08] <hyperstream_> coz_,  correct: using the 6600 now
[14:08] <llutz> francisfelidae: tinyurl.com/yarwsfh
[14:08] <coz_> hyperstream_,   not sure why ...i know somtimes the driver from Hardware drivers  doesnt always take effect on some systems
[14:08] <hyperstream_> coz_, reinstalling thee latest nvidia drivers
[14:09] <mac9416> Hey, y'all, how can I find out what version of Python comes with 6.06? (short of downloading it that is).
[14:09] <francisfelidae> llutz:  grawity: thank you!
[14:09] <grawity> !info python dapper
[14:09] <coz_> hyperstream_,  you can install from nvidia's site  ..by downloading and install the nvidia .run package
[14:09] <grawity> aww.
[14:09] <hyperstream_> coz_,  it seems it cannot just detect the monitor, i followed a guide that showed me how to boot into windows with software to get the correct settings for the 'ModeLines' to configure the xorg.conf, but i cannot locate such a file to work with, if that makes sense
[14:09] <karelia> !info kill avahi
[14:09] <grawity> mac9416: You could check packages.ubuntu.com, but seriously - 6.06 is old as hell.
[14:10] <karelia> i dont want to have to kill avahi every time i reboot
[14:10] <karelia> how do i remove it
[14:10] <coz_> hyperstream_, did you try opening   nvidia-settings
[14:10] <Vampire0> Hi @ll, I have a problem with my Floppy drive. I'm able to mount it manually by doing "mount /mnt/floppy0", but from Palimsest or Nautilus when I do "Recognize Media" or how it is called in English, it doesn't recognize the floppy inside
[14:10] <karelia> in aptitude a lot of packages are dependent on this avahi crap
[14:10] <llutz> karelia: update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove
[14:10] <karelia> avahi-daemon. thanks llutz
[14:10] <hyperstream_> coz_, yes its the configuration of the resolutions and card related stuff panel, even if i go to pref>display, i can choose YES to display manufacture panel (nvidia-settings)
[14:11] <mac9416> grawity, yeah, I know, but I need to help someone who uses it. packages.ubuntu.com is down, but I'll try that when it comes back up.
[14:11] <coz_> hyperstream_, so nvidia settings is seeing the monitor?
[14:11] <grawity> mac9416: then tell him to do 'python --version', or something.
[14:11] <coz_> hyperstream_,  under nvidia-settins  X server display configuration
[14:11] <hyperstream_> coz_,  its detecting it as a.. i think: CVT-0 monitor, and only has the max of 800x600 resolutions
[14:12] <coz_> hyperstream_,  ok mmm
[14:12] <hyperstream_> coz_,  instead of a Hitachi CM811 Plus (as this computer detects it perfectly)
[14:12] <hyperstream_> coz_,  same systems, same install disk, same updates
[14:12] <janhouse> what other options are there to capture my 3d desktop?
[14:12] <coz_> hyperstream_, that;s odd....
[14:12] <janhouse> capturing with ffmpeg or recordmydesktop has problems
[14:13] <mac9416> grawity, well it's on a forum, and the computer he needs support for is offline (probably why he hasn't upgraded) so it would be a little work for him to do that. May be what I have to do though.
[14:13] <janhouse> if using compiz snow and other effects, it is all messed up
[14:13] <hyperstream_> coz_,  im also having a similar issue at work on a laptop with a 17" monitor
[14:13] <coz_> janhouse,  not many options...linux does not have high end screencasting software
[14:13] <coz_> hyperstream_,  oooo
[14:14] <janhouse> sucks...
[14:14] <coz_> hyperstream_,  you could try to install nvidia's official driver
[14:14] <janhouse> ok, thx coz, have nice day! :)
[14:14] <hyperstream_> coz_,  i dont know how to figure it out, or to tell if its a bug, or google similar issues, my keywords are not getting any results.
[14:14] <coz_> janhouse,  there is the seom/yukon libraries
[14:14] <hyperstream_> coz_, should i uninstall the restricted drivers first yes ?
[14:14] <francisfelidae> grawity:  yes, it didn't work
[14:15] <coz_> hyperstream_,  absolutely
[14:15] <coz_> hyperstream_,  then let me know hold on let me get link for that driver
[14:15] <coz_> hyperstream_,    http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.42.html
[14:15] <francisfelidae> but I rescued the file with cat. ln would be nicer....
[14:15] <coz_> hyperstream_,  dont run that just yet
[14:15] <hyperstream_> coz_, sure thing mate:), give me 10-20 mins
[14:15] <hyperstream_> coz_, oooOo ?
[14:15] <coz_> hyperstream_,  do you know how to do install that driver?
[14:16] <coz_> hyperstream_,   sudo apt-get install build-essential     first
[14:16] <hyperstream_> coz_,  no not 100% but i would find a karmic ubuntu guild if needed
[14:16] <iKernel> hm
[14:16] <coz_> hyperstream_,  there is no deb pacakge on nvidia's site    this has to be installed through text consolr
[14:16] <naoshige> Why can't I connect to my master DNS server from my Ubuntu box? (i.e. telnet <master IP> 53) I can from other boxes. Does Ubuntu have some default firewall setting blocking this perhaps? My named.conf files, tail /var/log/syslog and iptables -L can be found here: http://pastie.org/740291
[14:17] <coz_> hyperstream_,  I can walk you through it you will need a pencil and paper first :)
[14:17] <hyperstream_> coz_, ahh yes terminal, sure thing, care to pm me ?
[14:17] <coz_> hyperstream_,  nope not the terminal
[14:17] <psinetic_> i SERIOUSLY need a functioning msn alternative that supports video calls, audio calls, and video/audio calls. right now i have amsn, but it's not working properly on any of these and i have no idea why.
[14:17] <hyperstream_> coz_, oo console, alt + f-key
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> naoshige:  there are no default 'rules' in ubuntu to block anything with its firewall.
[14:17] <iKernel> installing packages which depend on wine causes the wine package to installed. but i already have wine compiled and installed from source.
[14:17] <grawity> naoshige: Do _all_ DNS connections fail, or just transfers?
[14:17] <coz_> hyperstream_,  get a pencil and paper,,,,<<, I wanstn  joking :)
[14:18] <hyperstream_> coz_, got it mate :)
[14:18] <coz_> hyperstream_,  you have pencil and papter handy?
[14:18] <dAlfa89_> psinetic_, try compiling the latest aMSN from their website, it often helps me  (:
[14:18] <coz_> paper
[14:18] <hyperstream_> coz_,  sure do.
[14:18] <naoshige> grawity: All
[14:18] <iKernel> is there any way to make apt check if something is already installed from something other than a deb package?
[14:18] <psinetic_> dAlfa89_, i tried that, still nothing
[14:18] <coz_> hyperstream_,  ok this is the procedure  ...ctrl+alt+F1  then log in  then  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[14:18] <grawity> iKernel: What do you mean by "something other"?
[14:18] <grawity> iKernel: Compiling from source?
[14:19] <coz_> hyperstream_,   then  cd to the location of the downloaded driver
[14:19] <ardchoille> iKernel: the package manager doesn't manage apps compiled and installed from source
[14:19] <llutz> iKernel: no, thats the reason you should avoid instlling stuff from source/bins etc.
[14:19] <coz_> hyperstream_,  then  sh NV   then hit tab to complete the package name     say yes to everything  then    sudo init 6
[14:19] <jake__> anyone have any experience with "vsftp" server on Ubuntu?
[14:19] <Vampire0> noone? :-(
[14:20] <hyperstream_> coz_, init 6 - just for learning, what does this do/refer to ?
[14:20] <coz_> hyperstream_,  tell me when you have that all written down or PM me so we can get it without having to read inbetween posts
[14:20] <grawity> jake__: I do (in Debian, but that's almost the same)
[14:20] <coz_> hyperstream_,  init 6  is the reboot
[14:20] <ardchoille> hyperstream_: reboot
[14:20] <hyperstream_> ahh neato
[14:21] <coz_> hyperstream_,  but PLEASE be sure you have uninstalled the driver you had
[14:21] <jake__> do you know how to stop my users from being able to see the hidden system files on my server?....ie: .bashrc, etc
[14:21] <coz_> hyperstream_,  and that should have been uninstalled via  hardware drivers
[14:21] <hyperstream_> coz_, 100%
[14:21] <coz_> ok
[14:21] <grawity> jake__: Their own, or other users'?
[14:21] <coz_> hyperstream_,  now if you want  PM me and tell me what I asked you to do
[14:21] <coz_> :)
[14:21] <hyperstream_> lol ok
[14:22] <sixtila> is there a way I can change the right and left in cheese?
[14:22] <jake__> well, if I log on via ftp their not shown, but if you use an FTP client all the hidden files on the server show up
[14:22] <Shawn-> is there any way to recover user password in ubuntu
[14:23] <grawity> Shawn-: No, but you can set a new one -- boot into "recovery mode", use the 'passwd <your_login_name>' command.
[14:23] <Gozzy> .org
[14:24] <llutz> jake__: hide_file=.*
[14:24] <Shawn-> grawity
[14:24] <Shawn-> oops I meant what do you mean
[14:24] <thevishy> whats the range of ur temperature ? u can check it here
[14:24] <Nemos> Hi. I'm trying to install the Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 on my new netbook using a 1GB USB disk. I downloaded the .iso and used Unetbootin to make the USB disk a bootable drive. I then restarted the computer and set the BIOS settings to boot from the USB disk, but I'm presented with the error: "Please remove disk or other media. Press any key to restart." What's gone wrong and how can I make...
[14:24] <Almindor> hello
[14:24] <Nemos> ...it work?
[14:24] <thevishy> cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[14:24] <Almindor> i got a non working dvd-rw disc here which reports in dmesg:
[14:24] <llutz> jake__: man vsftpd.conf
[14:25] <Almindor> [20870.710946] UDF-fs: No anchor found
[14:25] <Almindor> [20870.710952] UDF-fs: No partition found (1)
[14:25] <Almindor> I just want to reformat/blank the thing (dvd+rw)
[14:25] <Shawn-> grawity how do I do it
[14:25] <grawity> Shawn-: I just told you.
[14:25] <tweakt> Anyone familiar with packaging of mozilla/xulrunner on ubuntu? trying to package and app and I need to figure out the right way to link against /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-<IP_ADDRESS>/lib/... probably doing something wrong here.
[14:25] <Almindor> but brasero is being stupid (no disc detected)
[14:25] <jake__> I've checked the config and dont' see anything to hide them
[14:25] <simion314> is it posible to install an older Xorg version in ubuntu? i am runing ubuntu 9.10 nut X sucks on my hardware, i had a greath experience with the X in 8.10 is it posible to install that versions? maybe others tried this before?
[14:25] <Almindor> and I can't get dvd+rw-format to work on it either
[14:25] <Shawn-> I'm actually on xubuntu can I still do it I don't see recovery
[14:25] <Almindor> any ideas
[14:25] <grawity> Shawn-: "Recovery mode" is an option in the boot menu, displayed when you turn in the computer.
[14:26] <jake__> I'll try the "hide_files"............thanks guys
[14:26] <llutz> jake__: therefor it's useful to read man-pages ;)
[14:26] <Shawn-> grawity it shows at grub or at login sessions?
[14:26] <grawity> jake__: But why would they need to be hidden? All of them belong to the user.
[14:26] <grawity> Shawn-: Grub.
[14:26] <thevishy> can anyone tell me the output of /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature ? I have it in the range of 85 degree .  is it normal ?
[14:26] <jake__> but we only have one user account on the system
[14:26] <llutz> thevishy: 40c here
[14:27] <OerHeks> thevishy depends on the hardware
[14:27] <Shawn-> Grawity how do I display grub if it doesn't show it by default
[14:27] <grawity> Shawn-: What does it show?
[14:27] <thevishy> thats very cool , wonder why its heating so much - yes but this has spiked since I installed the upgrade 2 days back
[14:27] <Shawn-> Grawity nevermind it was escape
[14:27] <thevishy> ofcourse my laptop is very hot but this has like become extreme and I suspect something related to do with kernel
[14:28] <orly_owl> What VGA capture devices will work with Ubuntu?
[14:28] <kurt_> čŗčŗčŗ
[14:28] <Shawn-> grawity now what do I select at recovery menu
[14:28] <grawity> Shawn-: "Root shell"
[14:29] <Shawn-> grawity and now I just change the users password?
[14:29] <grawity> Shawn-: Yes. (And it would be good to remove old keyrings from ~user/.gnome2/keyrings/, as they are useless without that password.)
[14:29] <n64> per ubuntu in italiano cosa si puo fare
[14:29] <Guest46980> hey
[14:29] <Shawn-> grawity thanks got it
[14:29] <Guest46980> i just installed ubuntu
[14:30] <ardchoille> !it | n64
[14:30] <Guest46980> i am not good with linux
[14:31] <Guest46980> but then i was sick of windows
[14:31] <psinetic_> !language | psinetic_
[14:31] <Guest46980> and i think windows 7 is too expensive
[14:31] <psinetic_> ok it works
[14:31] <thevishy> u can learn linux easily not  big deal
[14:31] <Guest46980> yeah i guess
[14:31] <thevishy> you are in the right place
[14:31] <znrf> hi, does someone know how to tell firefox to use nautilus when uploading a file ?
[14:31] <Guest46980> its worth a try
[14:31] <Guest46980> ohh ok
[14:32] <thevishy> surely
[14:32] <legend2440> i added a custom entry menu to /etc/grub.d/40_custom for Clonezilla and then did  sudo update-grub  but when i hit shift at boot and grub menu comes up  there is no Clonezilla  entry there. has anyone tried this ?
[14:32] <znrf> i mean, to open nautilus to search a file to upload instead of the default firefox file explorer who don't have true thumblnails
[14:32] <Guest46980> i did try to upgrade the nvidia drivers
[14:32] <Guest46980> and it all crashed
[14:32] <Guest46980> so i had to reinstall again
[14:32] <Guest46980> and i dunn think its a good idea to try updating the graphic drivers
[14:33] <Guest46980> i'm from australia
