[19:53] <daevski> Any chance anyone knows a cli for Show Desktop?
[19:53] <roygbiv> mweichert hmm i've been away from linux for a couple of years so i don't remember. what i do remember is it's not a straightforward process unfortunately
[19:53] <captnchaos> daevski: for what?
[19:53] <ejjlatenord> how is your print hp??
[19:53] <daevski> 0capt, making a hotkey
[19:54] <daevski> ^ captnchaos
[19:54] <captnchaos> mweichert: /etc/modules.conf
[19:54] <dean> hey all
[19:54] <chiques> wow! Opera is nice!
[19:54] <japanfred> hey
[19:54] <mweichert> captnchaos, thanks
[19:54] <japanfred> got a problem, if i leave my OS for a couple of hours, it'll goto black, and never come back... had to do a hard reset
[19:55] <fccf> japanfred: you probably have it set to hibernate, or sleep.. disable that in powermanagment
[19:55] <Gaming4JC> I just installed the Blender 2.49b 64bit deb from the blender.org for Jaunty. For some reason none of the menus are working, would anyone know why?
[19:55] <japanfred> Checked alll of that... all set to never, etc
[19:56] <roygbiv> my system doesn't have /etc/modules.conf, although it does have /etc/modules that is very lean compared to the actual list of modules currently running
[19:56] <EDinNY> anyone know what repository has adobe's pdf viewer acroread?
[19:56] <Vinceman> fccf sorry bit late but medibuntu is already installed
[19:57] <bbryant> Does anyone know where to find the jdbc odbc driver for ubuntu?
[19:57] <fccf> Vinceman: seems like you are on the right track
[19:57] <Gaming4JC> More specifically Blender's menus are there but scattered and only appear blinkily after much clicking on the same menu. :-/
[19:57] <Vinceman> captnchaos, sorry bit late but the problem is, I want to put the v4l2 files in the same dir as the v4l files (seems logical) but I don't get permission.. can anything go wrong? even if you put it all nicely in a directory?
[19:57] <Gaming4JC> maybe it's a graphic issue...
[19:57] <captnchaos> mweichert: /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-version too
[19:58] <Vinceman> fccf will extra possibilities show in the Synaptic Packet Manager when you enable medibuntu?
[19:58] <ejjlatenord> why kick me
[19:58] <captnchaos> Vinceman: where is the folder?
[19:58] <fccf> Vinceman: yes
[19:58] <fccf> bbryant: sun-javadb-core
[19:58] <kubanc> helow! does anybody know how to install wireless mouse on ubuntu. I have genius traveler 600 mouse http://www.genius-europe.com/en/produktdetail.php?ID2=56&ID=24&ID3=359
[19:59] <bbryant> fccf: I have that installed, but the jdbc odbc class is still missing
[19:59] <ejjlatenord> where i can found "PHOBOS"
[19:59] <ejjlatenord> ??
[19:59] <ltcabral> how can i make my NIS bind automatically before system startup?
[19:59] <drurew> !ssl
[20:00] <ejjlatenord> where i can found phobos
[20:00] <FloridaGuy> trying to install opera....but the installer keeps closeing
[20:00] <Vinceman> captnchaos the 4vl folder is in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-11(13+14+15)-generic/include/config/video dir
[20:00] <shane2peru> what is lost&found?  I have about 5.8gb of stuff in there after repairing a drive
[20:00] <roygbiv> wow
[20:01] <ejjlatenord> where i can found phobos where he is ????
[20:01] <shane2peru> I mean it may have been in there before, but at anyrate it is in there now.
[20:01] <fccf> bbryant: not sure
[20:01] <dual> Any good twitter clients that are not made with Adobe Air? Air doesn't work very well in Ubuntu 64bit.
[20:01] <captnchaos> Vinceman: and why do you want to edit the kernel sources?
[20:01] <roygbiv> shane2peru the stuff in lost+found is recovery data from fsck
[20:02] <shane2peru> roygbiv: so, it is probably safe to remove it
[20:02] <Vinceman> captnchaos you mean the kernel sources are in that dir?
[20:02] <ctmjr> ejjlatenord: what/who is phobos?
[20:02] <roygbiv> shane2peru only if you know it's not needed
[20:02] <shane2peru> roygbiv: I mean, I'm not real concerned about recovering it, it is my backup external hdd
[20:02] <captnchaos> Vinceman: yes
[20:02] <roygbiv> you'll probably have to go through the stuff by hand and review to make sure it's not needed
[20:02] <Vinceman> all I know is I have an app that doesn't work with merely v4l so I thought I'd just put v4l2 in the same place
[20:03] <Vinceman> captnchaos ^
[20:03] <roygbiv> shane2peru aaah ok then yes you can delete it if you know it's not important
[20:03] <captnchaos> Vinceman: and you only have acess to files and folders in your home dir. you understand now why?
[20:03] <shane2peru> roygbiv: hmm, I think I will dump it and just rsync stuff back up
[20:03] <shane2peru> roygbiv: thanks
[20:03] <Vinceman> captnchaos however I would still like to crack this little problem
[20:03] <roygbiv> that's probably a better way
[20:03] <roygbiv> np
[20:03] <captnchaos> Vinceman: why do you want to move the sources there?
[20:04] <Vinceman> it seems logical to put v4l2 where v4l is
[20:04] <israel> okgg
[20:04] <captnchaos> Vinceman: the guys that designed the kernel know why they put v4l and v4l2 in two different folders
[20:04] <shane2peru> roygbiv: 5GB is only 10% of the drive, I had a small electrical fire while backing up, and lost power in mid backup, quite exciting. :)
[20:04] <FloridaGuy> how do i install a deb package when the installer keeps closeing
[20:04] <ejjlatenord> phobos
[20:04] <roygbiv> heh
[20:05] <captnchaos> Vinceman: and if you still want to try... use "sudo nautilus" or "sudo cp"
[20:05] <israel> alguem fala portugues?
[20:05] <^mNotIntelligent> FloridaGuy, can't you use command line
[20:05] <shane2peru> !portugues | israel
[20:06] <israel> e holandes
[20:06] <shane2peru> !portuguese | israel
[20:06] <ejjlatenord> http://petermodzelewski.blogspot.com/2008/07/phobos-hack-big-update.html
[20:06] <Vinceman> captnchaos, what can go wrong, all i Know is that v4l2 is not in synaptic or installable with apt-get only downloadable from internet
[20:06] <ejjlatenord> it's a phobos ! Where i can found him??
[20:07] <Vinceman> which you of course also do when you install from synaptic but now I have to do everything myself
[20:07] <captnchaos> Vinceman: erm... these files belong into your homedirectory. ther you compile them. than you delete the files.
[20:07] <FloridaGuy> ^mNotIntelligent, how do i use cli for a deb i downloaded
[20:07] <Vinceman> ok
[20:07] <captnchaos> Vinceman: mkdir ~/src
[20:08] <captnchaos> copy the tarball into src
[20:08] <bmwracer0> FloridaGuy: dpkg -i blah.deb

[20:09] <Rabbitbunny> Hah, figured it out.
[20:09] <crackheadjunky> so im still stuck on my wireless issue. atheros driver problem
[20:09] <lesshaste> is there an add-on to give an "open with" option in firefox (in linux)?
[20:09] <pr0ton> Pici: thanks
[20:09] <Rabbitbunny> Edward123: Still having trouble?
[20:10] <crackheadjunky> does someone have the time to help me with my atheros wireless issue?
[20:10] <sisif> Quick question: what the hell happened with the RUN window in Karmic 9.10 ? And how can I get it back ? :D Thanks!
[20:10] <Edward123> Rabbitbunny: managed to fix it by specifying Driver ati in xorg.conf, double-checking the syntax of my SubSelection, finding out the proper rez + refresh rate for my monitor, and manually providing that as an option in xorg.conf
[20:10] <Edward123> all rejoice!
[20:10] <mazda01> my root partition is full and i don't know how that happened. can I remove all -dbg packages? or can someone tell me how to find the files that are taking up the space?
[20:11] <Rabbitbunny> Edward123: Why, that's what I did. What a coincidence.
[20:11] <erUSUL> mazda01: Aplicaction>accesories>disk use analizer
[20:11] <colblood> can anyone give me a suggestion of a good cloning program, that can clone a whole linux disk, for mass reproduction?

[20:12] <mazda01> erUSUL, will try that. thank you. can I remove all -dbg packages though?
[20:12] <Edward123> erUSUL... no problem! i was just scratching my head heh
[20:12] <cordor> why does gnome-panel use up 500M ram?
[20:12] <erUSUL> mazda01: yes they are only needed to debug issues you have
[20:12] <Edward123> now... i need to find some more ram from somewhere... heh
[20:12] <mazda01> colblood, partimage or ghost for linux (g4u)
[20:12] <mazda01> erUSUL, thanks
[20:12] <balsaque> after working for about 6 hours it is all done all the flippin update and all woow w98 gone i am all ubuntu now
[20:12] <colblood> hmm
[20:13] <colblood> partimage eh? can it create an image that can be reproduced later on?
[20:13] <balsaque> this runs great
[20:13] <balsaque> thanks al of you
[20:13] <mazda01> colblood, sure, why wouldn't it be able to?
[20:14] <colblood> no idea, just wanna make sure :) and it includes all partitions including boot and swap?
[20:15] <crackheadjunky> i need someone who is really good at wireless to help me.
[20:15] <crackheadjunky> please!
[20:15] <Vinceman> captnchaos, I get this weird error: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
[20:15] <captnchaos> Vinceman: what did you enter?
[20:15] <Vinceman> vd = open('/dev/video0', 'rw')
[20:15] <erUSUL> colblood: part image does images of partitions not of entire disks
[20:16] <colblood> oh :(
[20:16] <captnchaos> Vinceman: where did you get this?
[20:16] <Myrtti> Vinceman: that doesn't look like bash
[20:16] <Vinceman> .from the README file
[20:16] <crackheadjunky> ubuntu is no good to me without wireless, so please help
[20:16] <trism> Vinceman: that looks like python
[20:16] <Myrtti> !helpme | crackheadjunky
[20:16] <Mike_lifeguard> Hello, I have installed the viewvc package, however there seems to be no useful documentation - in particular, I'm looking for how to configure the repository.
[20:16] <Vinceman> captnchaos, Myrtti, trism: http://paste.ubuntu.com/276043/
[20:17] <Vinceman> (that's the README file)
[20:17] <captnchaos> Vinceman: thats for developers
[20:17] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Do you have wired networking operational?
[20:17] <trism> Vinceman: that is python, type python before you enter those commands
[20:17] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: yes
[20:17] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: thank you
[20:17] <trism> Vinceman: to bring up the python interactive shell
[20:17] <erUSUL> crackheadjunky: tell us what wifi chip do you use... does a wlan0 appear when you do « iwconfig » ?
[20:17] <captnchaos> Vinceman: dont do what trism said
[20:18] <captnchaos> Vinceman: is there an install file?
[20:18] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Coll, so, we know you're not slow. What happens with wireless?
[20:18] <Yoman> Hi! I am intending to create a soft link to a program I have recently installed to put on my desktop. The problem is though, that I don't know where the program executable is located. Not really familiar with how the filesystem works and how all files are arranged, etc, but I can't find the executable in /bin. What do I do next? Thanks
[20:18] <crackheadjunky> iwconfig shows nothing but no wireless extensions, and the wifi chip is atheros 9285
[20:18] <Vinceman> python: can't open file 'import': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
[20:18] <Vinceman> ok, I got it now
[20:18] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: do you have the correct driver?
[20:18] <erUSUL> Yoman: do «which programname»
[20:18] <trism> captnchaos: why not? he is installing a python binding, the readme is showing him how to play with it, I don't see the problem
[20:18] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: thats one of the problem
[20:18] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: i cant find it
[20:19] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Lemme look for a moment.
[20:19] <Pici> Vinceman: What exactly are you trying to do?
[20:19] <captnchaos> trism: he wants to install v4l2.... not a python binding. the binding is if you want to develop some v4lpython apps
[20:19] <Yoman> erUSUL, are you asking for what program? mnemosyne
[20:19] <armence> Hello all... I can no longer left-click for whatever reason... Can I get some help?
[20:20] <erUSUL> Yoman: no which is command of the shell
[20:20] <armence> I already tried a different mouse to no effet
[20:20] <Vinceman> Pici install v4l2
[20:20] <Vinceman> >>> v4l2.ioctl(vd, v4l2.VIDIOC_QUERYCAP, cp)
[20:20] <Vinceman> Traceback (most recent call last):

[20:20] <Vinceman>     return fcntl.ioctl(fd, op, arg, True)
[20:20] <balsaque> unplug mouse plug it back again
[20:20] <ewp> !pastebin | Vinceman
[20:20] <erUSUL> Yoman: which cat returns /bin/cat
[20:20] <captnchaos> Yoman: what application?
[20:20] <Pici> Vinceman: v4l2 is kernel module, it should already be installed.
[20:20] <trism> captnchaos: sorry, came in late, although I still don't see the problem with playing with the library
[20:20] <Vinceman> sorry
[20:20] <Vinceman> yet my flash app doesn't work, the cam image is interlaced
[20:20] <Yoman> erUSUL, ah, thanks alot =)
[20:21] <Pici> Vinceman: And why do you think that installing v4l2 will help?
[20:21] <Vinceman> someone on some forum said something about v4l2
[20:21] <Vinceman> but it is already deleted now
[20:21] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1179951
[20:22] <armence> Actually scratch that, it looks like my left click button might be stuck on somehow... Not in the hardware though
[20:22] <Vinceman> Pici, do you have any other ideas?
[20:23] <ctmjr> Vinceman: you deleted the v4l2 module?
[20:23] <Vinceman> no
[20:23] <Pici> Vinceman: Take a look at the v4l-conf package.
[20:23] <Vinceman> apt-get install v4l-conf?
[20:23] <Yoman> crackheadjunky, I'm not really sure what your problem with the wireless is, but I had heaps of problems getting my atheros chipset wireless wpa running.. WHat fixed it really smoothly was simply installing wicd and rebooting the computer
[20:23] <tasslehoff> Maritim: pressing C did the trick. rEFIt appeared, and has done so on every boot since :)
[20:23] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: that wont fix it, i already did that, and i cant seem  find the correct driver on that site
[20:24] <crackheadjunky> Yoman: how do i install wicd?
[20:24] <Yoman> crackheadjunky, apt-get install wicd I guess
[20:24] <Pici> Vinceman: Yes.  I'm unsure of another way to configure your camera, but thats at least will be somewhat productive.
[20:24] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: What site? That instructs you to install a package.
[20:24] <crackheadjunky> the site on the forum.
[20:24] <Yoman> crackheadjunky, its a gui for wireless devices
[20:24] <crackheadjunky> Yoman: apt-get doesnt work with wicd
[20:24] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: What version are you running?
[20:24] <erUSUL> crackheadjunky: try installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty
[20:25] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: how do i tell?
[20:25] <deviskec> hey guys does any1 know any taskbar like win7 superbar for ubuntu ?
[20:25] <balsaque> 1st time setting up ubuntu email ...do i "restore it from backup" ?
[20:25] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Didn't you install it?
[20:25] <satellite> hello
[20:25] <crackheadjunky> yes, but its not true ubuntu, its GOS
[20:25] <Vinceman> Pici v4l-conf is installed already
[20:25] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Now is a bad time to tell me that.
[20:25] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: i couldnt get ubuntu to install due to the usb key problems
[20:26] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: so i went to gos, which is ubuntu deritive
[20:26] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: uses all ubuntu repos, etc
[20:26] <Pici> Vinceman: Hrm, after looking at its manpage its probably not going to be much help anyway.
[20:26] <Berto> Hi - Is there a way to change the Volume Up keyboard shortcuts to point to PCM instead of Master sound?
[20:27] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: sorry, i know in alot of things it matters, but it doesnt matter in this instance
[20:27] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: run "sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty", if it installs reboot and hope.
[20:27] <Yoman> crackheadjunky, that command worked for me. first "sudo apt-get update", then "sudo apt-get install wicd"
[20:27] <Berto> Since Ubuntu 9.04 a different audio driver is seen by Alsamixergui (PulseAudio... don't see my Intel HDA controls)
[20:27] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: You hope it doesn't.
[20:27] <Vinceman> how come v4l2 doesn't show up in synaptic after enabling medibuntu?>
[20:27] <Vinceman> Pici ^
[20:27] <Rabbitbunny> Vinceman: try typing it out.
[20:28] <Vinceman> Rabbitbunny?
[20:28] <crackheadjunky> couldnt find backports jaunty
[20:28] <Vinceman> a joke?
[20:28] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: See? it matters.
[20:28] <Pici> Vinceman: What do you mean? v4l2 is not a package in itself.
[20:28] <djp> do i need to creat a ~/.mailcap file in order to override system wide defaults for mime types? basically i want lynx to prompt me to download images by default rather than open them in fbi.
[20:28] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: only because i dont have the right repos added
[20:29] <balsaque> help setting up email on here?
[20:29] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Okay well, when you get ahold of that package, it should fix everything for you.
[20:29] <balsaque> or should i just do gmail?
[20:29] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: thats why i need someones help that knows better than me
[20:29] <Vinceman> Pici after the effort it is not nice to see it lead to nowhere
[20:29] <Pici> Vinceman: the v4l2 modules are part of the kernel packages.
[20:29] <erUSUL> balsaque: what mail ? client ? server?
[20:29] <Rabbitbunny> balsaque: google email provider and program, thay all have instructions.
[20:30] <Vinceman> Pici there were v4l2 dirs on my PC
[20:30] <balsaque> i have verizon dsl, i have google on my desktop
[20:30] <Vinceman> Pici, how does webcaminterlacing come to be?
[20:30] <balsaque> (rabbit) do i do ubuntu email or google or what
[20:31] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: ok, how do i add the jaunty backports?
[20:31] <Pici> Vinceman: I don't know, but I'm sure you're going down the wrong path by trying to install v4l2 bindings. You don't need that because you already have v4l2 installed.
[20:31] <balsaque> (rabbit) ok you said gmail
[20:31] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: maybe thats a better question
[20:31] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: You wasted 10min of my time by not telling me that, Use google to figure out how to add repos and get the package you need.
[20:31] <Vinceman> Pici since I already ran the first three commands in python, is this a problem?
[20:31] <Pici> Vinceman: No.
[20:31] <Vinceman> but we cannot solve the problem
[20:31] <erUSUL> Vinceman: right click on a flash element in a webpage and choose Configure. there is a tab to configure the webcam
[20:32] <erUSUL> Vinceman: inm my case it only says no webcam found becouse i do not have any
[20:32] <crackheadjunky> Rabbitbunny: did it really waste your time? no. but if thats what you need to get out of helping me, then great. thanks for your time.
[20:32] <nanotube> !bot
[20:32] <Rabbitbunny> crackheadjunky: Thanks for valuing my time, Have a nice day.
[20:33] <crackheadjunky> a55
[20:33] <Vinceman> erUSUL how do you recognize such flash elements?
[20:33] <erUSUL> Vinceman: the youtube player for example
[20:34] <Like> hi
[20:34] <erUSUL> Vinceman: i thought your problem was with flash and the webcam
[20:34] <Vinceman> ye sit is
[20:34] <korcan> if I install karmic, will apt-get upgrade keep me current as it becomes stable?
[20:35] <erUSUL> Vinceman: just right click in a youtube video then. in the context menu should be an entry called Configuration
[20:35] <Pici> Vinceman: Then you can right click on the flash applet is giving you a problem.
[20:35] <erUSUL> Vinceman: that opens a small window with tabs. one is to configure the webcam

[20:42] <chattta> hi, I just added the JDK, but cmd javac doesn't find the compiler.
[20:42] <chattta> any help on finding it and changing my path so it's accessible?  (ubu9.04)
[20:42] <Flannel> korcan: Yes.  But karmic questions should be directed to #ubuntu+1
[20:42] <Guest78099> just i trayet watch stargate in ubuntu
[20:42] <korcan> ahh
[20:42] <Vinceman> erUSUL Adobe Flash says Logitech QuickCam USB (V4L1) is the device to be used
[20:42] <korcan> Flannel, thanks :) I didn't know that chan existed :)
[20:42] <Vinceman> but it's not ok, how do I change and improve it ?
[20:42] <Vinceman> erUSUL ^
[20:43] <mazda01> i have file called sqlAWDgzx that's located in my / folder. when i look at it it says this on the first line, "The system tables of MySQL Server" can I delete it?
[20:43] <mazda01> where is the Trash again in 9.04?
[20:43] <Guest78099> xine player
[20:43] <Flats> I think I just need to go without the GUI. I don't use it for anything. All the configs are done thru a remote browser.
[20:43] <erUSUL> Vinceman: sorry i do not know how to help further
[20:43] <Vinceman> but!
[20:43] <Flats> Just not sure how to reboot without the GUI loading but making sure all the necessary VM stuff loads
[20:43] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: You can kill gdm and lead the GUI installed, but not running.
[20:44] <erUSUL> Guest78099: to whatch dvd you need the decripting libs found in medibuntu
[20:44] <Rabbitbunny> s/lead/leave/
[20:44] <erUSUL> !dvd | Guest78099
[20:44] <erUSUL> !medibuntu | Guest78099
[20:44] <mazda01> where is the Trash again in 9.04?
[20:44] <Flats> Is that just the ctrl - bksp thing
[20:44] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[20:44] <occy1> so... photorec and testdisk for the win!
[20:44] <occy1> I was able to save my files
[20:44] <Flats> Can I do that while it's running?
[20:44] <Flats> all my vm's running I mean
[20:44] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: Guess what happens if you replace 'stop' with 'start'
[20:44] <epic1501> Yes i need help when i insert a cd or dvd into my drive bay ubuntu will not detect it ??
[20:45] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: Uh... not sure on that one, try it.
[20:45] <Guest78099> so what type in terminal to fix it   dvd players
[20:45] <Rabbitbunny> epic1501: Try another disc.
[20:46] <epic1501> i did Rabbitbunny
[20:46] <epic1501> still dont work
[20:46] <Rabbitbunny> epic1501: Does it read any disc?
[20:47] <epic1501> no none at all :(
[20:47] <Rabbitbunny> epic1501: cleaned it lately?
[20:47] <boscop1> is there any FREE rar tool?
[20:47] <Flats> Well, I guess it worked. I guess I need to enable telnet now to start and stop things.
[20:47] <epic1501> it was working perfectly fine before i installed ubuntu i use to run xp
[20:47] <holstein> any mininote users around?
[20:47] <Guest78099> how run that dvd...???
[20:48] <holstein> got a 2133 with issues
[20:48] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: If you have linux all around, use ssh. it's more secure.
[20:48] <dragonlyre> epic 1501, what kind of player is it?
[20:48] <Flats> It's all in my house though no outside access.
[20:48] <epic1501> liteon
[20:48] <trism> mazda01: it is the little orange icon in the bottom right corner, if you mean where it is stored, it has moved to ~/.local/share/Trash
[20:48] <Flats> I guess you're right though, why chance it
[20:48] <Guest78099> any player going to fail
[20:48] <Rabbitbunny> epic1501: Okay, it's probably a driver error, which means I have no idea how to help you.
[20:48] <Rabbitbunny> Flats: Exactly.
[20:48] <epic1501> it was working perfectly fine for over a year now and then i install ubuntu and no workie
[20:48] <vxr> Guest78099: have u tried vlc ?
[20:49] <bliiixt> having difficulties running the uppdates... linux-generic,...,linux-restricted-modules,->some kind of crash or broken something
[20:49] <bliiixt> should i just skip the kernel uppdate?
[20:49] <dragonlyre> ok, did you google it?
[20:49] <dragonlyre> and what player are you using?
[20:50] <trism> bliiixt: can to post the errors to pastebin or something?
[20:50] <mario__> hi
[20:50] <mario__> ???
[20:50] <trism> !hi | mario__
[20:50] <mario__> i am new in linux
[20:50] <mario__> !!!
[20:51] <bliiixt> wish i could, didnt store it though, and i reinstalled ubuntu two times today so don't have the log
[20:51] <mazda01> trism, dang, i was hoping it was somewhere outside of /home because my / is full and I am trying to figure out what I can delete. i have no idea what filled my / folder
[20:51] <roygbiv> heh
[20:52] <roygbiv> marlo enters, says he is new to linux, then leaves. i guess he just had to get that off his chest
[20:52] <bliiixt> theres a huge list of uppdates after fresh install
[20:52] <vxr> ;p;
[20:52] <bliiixt> how handle it?
[20:53] <bliiixt> should some of it go first?
[20:53] <trism> mazda01: if I'm trying to figure out where all my space has gone, I often do a du | sort -nr > ~/usage.txt
[20:53] <Myrtti> bliiixt: the system takes care of the order of the updates
[20:53] <trism> mazda01: it will list the directories that take the most space at the top
[20:54] <bliiixt> ok, then there should be something else wrong...
[20:54] <trism> mazda01: err, for all of / that should be du / | sort -nr > ~/usage.txt
[20:54] <coppro> what's the correct way to remove all non-critical packages?
[20:54] <coppro> (yes, I'm serious; yes, I know what I'm doing)
[20:55] <peeps123> hi
[20:55] <bliiixt> the linux-restricted-modules thing that gets checked automatically when i check the linux kernel brakes when i run the uppdate
[20:55] <bliiixt> then i can't remove it with the package handler
[20:55] <Rabbitbunny> bliiixt: Run it, get the errors. Once you have a copy of the errors it can be fixed.
[20:56] <bliiixt> ur right, ok, thanks
[20:56] <Flats> Ok now that you got me excited and my CPU use went from 70% to 10%. How do I install the SSH server thru a command line
[20:57] <warriorforgod> Flats: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[20:57] <syntax\> hi, is this possible? I wanna connect to our exchange server using thunderbird as my email client instead of micr0s0fts outlook?
[20:57] <Flats> already have it, just need to activate it
[20:58] <Flats> I assume
[20:58] <Myrtti> syntax\: not with thunderbird
[20:58] <Richard_Martin> I have a webcam on my eeepc but I dont know how to make it work
[20:58] <Richard_Martin> how do I turn on the device
[20:58] <Richard_Martin> I am running ubuntu 8.10
[20:58] <Rods_Tiger> have you tried the webcam in skype?
[20:58] <syntax\> Myrtti: for real?
[20:58] <ctmjr> !webcams | Richard_Martin
[20:59] <Myrtti> syntax\: you might have better luck with evolution
[20:59] <Myrtti> syntax\: depending on if your exchange has OWA on and which version it is
[21:00] <syntax\> Myrtti: evolution? the one default on almost every linux distro available?"
[21:00] <TiamatStudios> might i be able to ask someone for help?
[21:00] <Myrtti> syntax\: the same
[21:00] <Myrtti> TiamatStudios: just ask
[21:01] <trijntje> TiamatStudios, feel free to ask ;)
[21:01] <mazda01> trism, yeah. the problem is that I am mounting several directories over samba and nfs and I just don't understand what could be taking up the space. we're talking about 3 to 4 GB's that just disappeared. I did use devede but I thought I wrote it to /media/500gb/tmp which is a mounted NFS drive.
[21:01] <TiamatStudios> alright, my installer packages have all gotten corrupt and im unable to install anything updates or general programs. How can i fix this?
[21:01] <Vinceman> erUSUL it did not work
[21:02] <Edward123> TiamatStudios: how did that corruption occur?
[21:02] <Vinceman> erUSUL, are all the flash apps the same?
[21:02] <trism> mazda01: hmm, no idea
[21:03] <TiamatStudios> in the middle of a system update the whole thing froze up and did nothing so i ended up having to restart
[21:03] <erUSUL> Vinceman: dunno really; as i said i do not even have a webcam
[21:03] <waratos> Hi, can someone help me compile a kernel module
[21:03] <arber4444> fuck you mom
[21:04] <waratos> I can't seem to set the path for arm-eabi-gcc
[21:04] <guntbert> mazda01: if you use du (like trism said) with -x you get only local folders and if you use -s you get only sums for whole trees
[21:04] <erUSUL> !ot | arber4444
[21:04] <Edward123> hrm TiamatStudios frankly the quickest way may be a re-install
[21:04] <mazda01> trism, usage.txt shows / is using the most but i already knew that. i just don't know what to do?
[21:04] <mazda01> guntbert, will try those options. thanks
[21:04] <Sega_Dude> Is there a way to check your kernal version?
[21:04] <trism> mazda01: well yeah, you generally want to look down several levels after that to see what stuff below / is doing
[21:05] <erUSUL> !ops | arber4444 pm spamming
[21:05] <Edward123> Sega_Dude: uname -a
[21:05] <TiamatStudios> ok, in the error it said the problem was in dpkg the debian package and libvolume-idl, so is there a way to install either of these 2 manually?
[21:05] <trijntje> Sega_Dude, uname -r
[21:05] <Edward123> TiamatStudios: i wouldn't have though you're going to be able to install dpkg without dpkg, no
[21:05] <Sega_Dude> K thanks
[21:05] <Amaranth> erUSUL: They aren't doing it on join
[21:05] <mazda01> guntbert, the -x option is great. it's helping. i just need to find the files I need to delete
[21:06] <TiamatStudios> dang, well thanks anyway
[21:06] <tisepti> how can i remove one, and only one (not the dependencies) package?
[21:06] <erUSUL> Amaranth: no but 22:03 < arber4444> fuck you mom <<< deserves something
[21:06] <TiamatStudios> have a good day
[21:06] <Vinceman> does anybody know.. the window you get when you right click a youtube movie, how can you fix something wrong in your device selection?
[21:06] <trism> tisepti: sudo apt-get remove package_name_here
[21:06] <gsedej> hi! Someone knows about torrentflux-b4rt?
[21:06] <Amaranth> erUSUL: Perhaps it does for you repeating it here but someone bothering you in a PM is not our responsibility
[21:07] <Phase> Is there software in the repo that will let me view a Berkeley DB file?
[21:07] <guntbert> mazda01: I usually use something like du -sx /* | ...., and then from that on the next biggest and so on
[21:07] <trism> tisepti: anything automatically installed by that package will only be removed if you do a sudo apt-get autoremove
[21:07] <erUSUL> Amaranth: fair enough. i just ignored him. thank you for your time anyway
[21:07] <dennis> I've re-installed ubuntu, and have 2 main issues - high CPU usage when browsing folders in nautilous and I can't get the duel-head to work, even though I used the hardware installer to install the ATI drivers
[21:08] <Flats> OK ssh was a bit too complicated to figure out so I dropped back to telnet. It seems pretty basic but it appears I'm using Xinetd and it flashed something baout converting. does any of this make sense
[21:08] <trism> tisepti: although if the dependencies are important, you'll probably want to set them to manually installed so autoremove won't remove them
[21:08] <Sega_Dude> Since i have ubuntu on my ps3 I was wondering it anyone knos of any good fps games?
[21:08] <MarkusT> Here's one I can't figure out: One PC, no floppy, no CD-Drive, can't boot from USB or Network. Ubuntu is already installed on first HDD, but I need to install it to the second HDD, which is supposed to replace the first one. How do I do it?
[21:08] <LjL> Amaranth: where's the PM? that was said in this channel. scroll up.
[21:09] <Amaranth> LjL: ah, so it was
[21:09] <Amaranth> LjL: Well, he is already gone
[21:10] <wrapster> can alien be used to convert from tar.gz to a deb?
[21:10] <wrapster> wasnt able to find the flags for it...
[21:10] <Flannel> wrapster: No.  Assuming you mean a source tarball, you should look into Checkinstall
[21:10] <tisepti> trism: are you sure i get a two lists - one that is no longer required (packages i assume that package x depended on - and nothing else did - which is what autoremove would do? ) and a list of "The following packages will be REMOVED"
[21:11] <trism> tisepti: well, if there are packages that depend on the package you are removing, they will be uninstalled too, because otherwise they would be broken
[21:11] <wrapster> checkinstall?
[21:11] <shawn_> Okay so Im trying to install my new graphics card but the only type of plug it seems to have is a 3 pin port... My computer doesnt have any 3 pin power cables I dont think but this card came with a short cord that seems to have 3 pins and fits into the card... On the other end of it it has two black things one says GND and the other says SPDIF... What do I do?
[21:11] <wrapster> just started learning these things can you be descriptive please
[21:11] <benc> is there a tutorial on how to build an ubuntu package from a software that doesn't need compiling?
[21:11] <Vinceman> why are there nine linux-headers directories in my /usr/src directory?
[21:12] <Amaranth> shawn_: That sounds like a connection for getting sound for an HDMI output. Also, that's not really related to Ubuntu so rather offtopic here.
[21:12] <r3za2> hey guys , how can i make connection to auto reconnect when its disconnect /
[21:12] <guntbert> !packaging | benc
[21:12] <r3za2> hey guys , how can i make connection to auto reconnect when its disconnect ( DSL connection ) ( Sorry for my bad engilish )
[21:13] <trism> Vinceman: because you have the linux-headers package installed, and you have 9 kernels installed I imagine
[21:13] <mazda01> guntbert, how can I see just files though? du is showing me folders isn't it?
[21:13] <Vinceman> trism don't you need merely one kernel?
[21:13] <shawn_> Amaranth Im sorry but I dont know where else to go to ask... How am I supposed to plug power into this graphics card then?
[21:13] <tisepti> trism: the packages scheduled to be removed are ones for which i wrote the dependency lists for; I am testing an alternitive dependency
[21:14] <ManDay> What happens if you press middle mouse button in the gnome-terminal???
[21:14] <nicklas_> shawn_: you should ask the manufacterer of the card or ask where you bought the card
[21:14] <Amaranth> shawn_: The port on the motherboard provides power, only some cards need an extra power connection. Sounds like you don't have one of those.
[21:14] <Amaranth> shawn_: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:14] <Vinceman> trism?
[21:14] <Amaranth> ManDay: It should paste any text you have highlighted into the terminal
[21:14] <trism> Vinceman: yes, you really only need one, although it's good to keep the last few in case you have a problem with the most recent one
[21:15] <megabraker> okokokookkookokkook
[21:15] <trism> Vinceman: although I just leave them all installed cause I don't feel like messing with it
[21:15] <shawn_> Amaranth... Are you saying it will just work without any other plugs going into it?
[21:15] <r3za2> hey guys , how can i make connection to auto reconnect when its disconnect ( DSL connection ) ( Sorry for my bad engilish )
[21:15] <Vinceman> trism well something messed with my PC so I think I should simplify things
[21:15] <hannes__> wow ubuntu irc
[21:16] <guntbert> mazda01: yes, the usual procedure is to drill down to the (one) big folder and then type ls -l | sort -nr -k5
[21:16] <Neil__> nick neil
[21:16] <trism> tisepti: not sure I can really help you there, but apt-get really should only remove a single package unless some other package depends on it
[21:16] <ManDay> Amaranth, ok. My problem is that usually MMB is used for compiz - so is the upper left edge - this usually works - even in fullscreen, but then - ocasionally it just stops working and reverst to MMB=paste, upper left corner=useless behaviour
[21:16] <x[x]> <--- neil
[21:16] <x[x]> NEIL
[21:16] <x[x]> DONT steal my name :(

[21:17] <guntbert> !ot | x[x]
[21:17] <x[x]> ..
[21:17] <trism> Vinceman: well you can do a dpkg -l | grep ii | grep linux-image to list your installed kernels, and then uninstall the ones you don't want, just be careful
[21:18] <trism> Vinceman: doing a sudo apt-get remove linux-image-VERSION will remove the headers too (replacing VERSION with the kernel version you want to uninstall)
[21:18] <twan_vd_p> guys, I upgraded my server from ubuntu lts plain 6.06 to hardy 8.04, after a reboot it never came up. in my ip-based kvm i noticed that in the dist-upgrade/main_pre_req.log file, after a while it says;  ERROR IOError/SystemError in cache.update(): 'Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-backports/Release Unable to find expected entry  main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release fi

[21:18] <twan_vd_p> any suggestions ?
[21:18] <Vinceman> trism.. 11-13-14-15- - there are five!
[21:19] <benc> guntbert: I've read the packaging guide but still don't understand what file of the template I need to edit to:
[21:19] <Vinceman> what is a linux image?
[21:19] <benc> guntbert:1. copy my server folder to the file system
[21:19] <Vinceman> linux image !
[21:19] <trism> Vinceman: linux-image is the kernel package
[21:19] <benc> 2. create a system user and give him the needed permissions to run the server
[21:19] <Vinceman> kernel!
[21:19] <Vinceman> !kernel
[21:19] <bobbyd> Hi, I'd like to somehow tunnel all traffic from an interface over http, and have it re-emerge on the internet as it it were coming from the remote machine, is that possible somehow?
[21:19] <iceroot> Vinceman: the kernel is that what is called linux
[21:20] <iceroot> Vinceman: the rest is a distribution (like ubuntu)
[21:20] <guntbert> benc: I don't know about packaging myself - just wanted to give you a starting point - sorry for the confusion
[21:20] <trism> Vinceman: if you decide to mess with it, make sure you keep 2.6.28-15-generic, that is the most recent
[21:20] <benc> guntbert:  thanks
[21:20] <Vinceman> trism you sound as if I shouldn't mess with it
[21:21] <Tomasso> does somebody know a good keylogger for linux ? i tried klk but the keyboard doesnt work as expected with it..<
[21:21] <trism> Vinceman: unless you really really need the disk space, I wouldn't bother with it
[21:21] <iceroot> Vinceman: never touch a running system
[21:22] <mazda01> guntbert, that's not helping. at least not for me. it says /usr/ is the largest after / but when i look at that, i can't think of anything that was written to /usr/ that shouldn't have
[21:22] <trism> Vinceman: although, I have 7 sets of kernel headers in my /usr/src and they are taking up about 500 megs, so it isn't completely insignificant
[21:22] <eross> can the remote desktop be used as a guest 'host'? in other words, want to code on it remotely, and test..
[21:22] <jose> hello
[21:22] <spree> So I'm trying to find a website that tells me what software i should be installing. New cool stuff that I wouldn't think to download. Any ideas?
[21:22] <Vinceman> trism my system isn't running smoothly, I get an interlaced webcam image with a certain flash app
[21:23] <mazda01> trism, my /usr/src only have 1 kernel. i was sure to check that
[21:23] <Vinceman> I figure if I remove junk the image will be ok again
[21:23] <guntbert> mazda01: the next step would be du -sx /usr/* | sort -nr - so you find what is there, try it
[21:23] <OldSmoke_> anybody good with nvidia 9500gt?
[21:23] <guntbert> !ot | spree
[21:23] <iceroot> OldSmoke_: you have a ubuntu-related question?
[21:24] <r3za2> hey guys , how can i make connection to auto reconnect when its disconnect ( DSL connection ) ( Sorry for my bad engilish )
 yes as in how to install drivers for sli setup
[21:24] <mazda01> guntbert, it says /usr/lib/, that's jsut filled with lib files
[21:24] <iceroot> OldSmoke_: running the restricted-drivers?
[21:25] <iceroot> OldSmoke_: if i am correct, they support sli with the nvidia-settings gui
 am running the latest from nvidia
[21:25] <guntbert> mazda01: now drill downdu -sx /usr/lib/* | sort -nr ... and so on
[21:25] <guntbert> mazda01: now drill down du -sx /usr/lib/* | sort -nr ... and so on
 i can install with 1 card as soon as i put the other in it dies
[21:26] <iceroot> what dies? ubuntu or the pc?

[21:30] <mazda01> guntbert, about 3 to 4 gigs
[21:30] <ldlework> iceroot, guntbert erUSUL , Yes - No matter what machine I play on, no matter what quality of network I play on - I get consistent network latency issues. Rather, my ping is very low, but the ingame netgraph shows massive black spikes and massive stuttering. I was wondering if any other ubuntu users expereinced this problem.
[21:30] <erUSUL> ldlework: count me in. i blamed it the fact i use wifi (heard could be the couse)
[21:30] <mazda01> guntbert, can i use the find command but exclude /media/ and the other NFS mounted shares?
[21:30] <iceroot> ldlework: bad server, bad connection, wifi?
[21:31] <guntbert> ldlework: that sound better suited for ubuntu-offtopic :-)
[21:33] <haris> How do I get rid of the 6 /sbin/getty tty terminals that start on bootup? I don't really need that many options to fall back to if I want to kill X
[21:33] <EuphoniC> Hi guys! Is it a bad idea to run Ubuntu from a USB-memory if the system is considered a permanent server?
[21:33] <guntbert> mazda01: maybe, but I never mastered find (its too big a beast :-)
[21:33] <iceroot> EuphoniC: a professional server or a home-server without important stuff?
[21:33] <mazda01> EuphoniC, not sure. i would think that flash is faster than IDE though but I could be wrong.
[21:33] <Monoman> I'd say sure as long as /var and /tmp were on a tmpfs
[21:34] <guntbert> haris: they don't do any harm :-)
[21:34] <mazda01> guntbert, darn. I know how to use find / -size 100mb but not sure how to exclude the NFS moutned shares/
[21:34] <EuphoniC> it's for personal use, but professional but with ftp server, http server, 10-15 users that will be using it
[21:34] <iceroot> EuphoniC: important is not using swap on a flash-drive
[21:34] <genii> haris: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow console-setup               ...this also has the settings for your default keyboard, fonts etc so be careful answering the questions
[21:34] <Monoman> I mean /var and swap
[21:34] <Monoman> sorry
[21:34] <gladideg> is it possible to insert a line to crontab without typing crontab -e? Like issuing a command directly at prompt?
[21:34] <erUSUL> haris: go to /etc/event.d/ rename the tty you do not need to ttyn.disabled (for example)
[21:34] <guntbert> mazda01: my best advice for this : man find (and some spare time :-)
[21:35] <EuphoniC> iceroot: ah :(
[21:35] <haris> ah thanks erUSUL (and guntbert that doesn't really answer my question .. I know they do no harm but I still want it removed. This is not Apple now, is it? I should be able to customize my system)
[21:35] <Neil_Sun> help
[21:35] <Vinceman> Pici, another error concerning my webcam: Guvcview error: Couldn't query device capabilities Make sure the device driver suports v4l2
[21:35] <erUSUL> !ask | Neil_Sun
[21:36] <iceroot> EuphoniC: imo its better to use a real hdd instead of flash-drives for server
[21:36] <haris> erUSUL, the /etc/event.d tip was very handy. Appreciate it :) I just commented the "exec /sbin/getty" line in them
[21:36] <wizzo50> gnome-app-install
[21:36] <Vinceman> trism, another error concerning my webcam: Guvcview error: Couldn't query device capabilities Make sure the device driver suports v4l2
[21:36] <lstarnes> haris: you should probably keep one or two spare terminals
[21:36] <mazda01> guntbert, thanks for the help thus far
[21:36] <lstarnes> haris: I think tty1 is required for some things
[21:36] <technot> anyonw knows how often gnome rereads gconf2 config?
[21:37] <roygbiv> gladideg crontab files are stored in /var/spool/cron/crontabs so you could e.g echo "<crontab entry>" >> /var/spool/cron/crontabs/gladideg, then sighup cron to pick up the change
[21:37] <EuphoniC> stupid server wont boot from sata, all my ide disks have gone to hell and it's not very econimically "smart" to buy a new IDE drive, they're expensive as shit, you get 250GB for the price os a 1TB SATA :S
[21:37] <haris> lstarnes, that i will, yes thanks .. I am just trying to kill all processes that I know I don't need and tty1 has some of the boot time messages
[21:37] <genii> erUSUL: Ah, nice, wasn't aware of that method. I've been setting it the other way
[21:37] <nanotube> iceroot: how come? under standard use, no reason to expect a flash stick to fail any time soon.
[21:37] <iceroot> EuphoniC: buy a sata/raid controller :)
[21:37] <guntbert> mazda01: np - and good luck (btw there is a GUI app too - I'll have to look - if you still got enough space)
[21:37] <EuphoniC> speaking of USB-memory, then you should use a solid state disk for swap either? cause it's pretty much the same isn't it?
[21:38] <EuphoniC> iceroot: I do have SATA controller but for some reason it can't boot from it, don't understand why
[21:38] <erUSUL> genii: well not a method but more of a hack :)
[21:38] <iceroot> nanotube: limit write access is not nice for a server (swap, logging, ftp usage)
[21:38] <haris> Is there a command line equivalent for NetworkManager?
[21:38] <iceroot> haris: ifconfig, ifup, ifdown, /etc/network/interfaces
[21:38] <cocacoca> hello
[21:38] <nanotube> haris: if you switch from networkmanager to wicd, then you get the neat wicd-curses interface. otherwise, just use the standard commands...
[21:39] <cocacoca> anyone can help me with the function SuspendThread() ??
[21:39] <iceroot> EuphoniC: the bios cant boot? or ubuntu cant detect it?
[21:39] <erUSUL> haris: cnetworkmanager ? never used it but it is there
[21:39] <lstarnes> cocacoca: what language is that in?
[21:39] <erUSUL> haris: http://vidner.net/martin/software/cnetworkmanager/
[21:39] <cocacoca> it's from windows api
[21:39] <haris> iceroot, I was actually looking at it from a more wireless networking point of view. Wired I am familiar with, it's just the wpa-supplicant part .. i didn't know wicd had a curses interface so thanks nanotu will try that out .. and erUSUL cnetworkmanager wasn't in the repos, so will check your link out .. thank you
[21:39] <technot> does anyone know how often gnome rereads gconf2 config when logged in?
[21:39] <guntbert> !info gdmap | mazda01
[21:39]  * erUSUL we need a package of that
[21:39] <nanotube> cocacoca: ehrm... aren't you in the wrong channel for that? :)
[21:39] <iceroot> cocacoca: and windows has what to do with a ubuntu-channel?
[21:39] <Gizmo_> hi. I trying to clarify how large Ubuntu makes the swap partition by default. E.g. if you have 1Gb, how big the swap? If 2Gb, how big swap? If 4Gb, how big swap?
[21:40] <EuphoniC> iceroot: i installed ubuntu on a sata, that was fine but when i reboot it can't find the drive even though the drive on the first slot on the controller and the bios has been setup to boot from that
[21:40] <lstarnes> Gizmo_: it's up to you to decide that
[21:40] <cocacoca> yes but i can't figure out the problem
[21:40] <lstarnes> Gizmo_: if you want to hibernate, you need at least the size of your RAM for swap
[21:40] <lstarnes> Gizmo_: maybe more
[21:40] <EuphoniC> i should get a new server, it's an old p3 800 that has caused sporadic boot problems in the past
[21:40] <gladideg> roygbiv, I figured out a file in /etc/cron.d/ would be just fine for me :-) Thank you
[21:40] <cocacoca> because it blocks the thread but it blocks also the main
[21:40] <iceroot> EuphoniC: using raid? i had the same problems, i must use the alternate cd for that (only jaunty is working)
[21:40] <trism> Vinceman: no idea, I never actually managed to get my webcam working in linux
[21:40] <cocacoca> so if anyone can help me... :D
[21:40] <Gizmo_> lstarnes: i seem to recall though, that if you just accep the auto configuariton and say "Use entire disk" it automatically allocated a swap partition
[21:41] <nanotube> cocacoca: tried looking at the docs? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686345%28VS.85%29.aspx
[21:41] <iceroot> cocacoca: ##windows
[21:41] <sergiu> hi
[21:41] <EuphoniC> only software raid and not booting from raid
[21:41] <Vinceman> trism my webcam works locally, except there's something wrong with it's support for v4l2
[21:41] <nanotube> cocacoca: and yea, try the windows channel, like iceroot says
[21:41] <iceroot> EuphoniC: yes, same here
[21:41] <cocacoca> k tnx
[21:41] <EuphoniC> oh?
[21:41] <Vinceman> trism? how do you reinstall the webcam drivers in ubuntu?
[21:41] <iceroot> EuphoniC: use alternate cd 9.04 it will work. it will ask to acticate the raid during installation
[21:41] <iceroot> EuphoniC: otherwise grub will fail
[21:41] <sergiu> anyone know why i would not use linux
[21:42] <nsahoo> my home key is not working
[21:42] <trism> Vinceman: well, the webcam drivers are probably included with the kernel, so it won't really help
[21:42] <nsahoo> xev is not turning up anything
[21:42] <trism> Vinceman: what webcam do you have?
[21:42] <sergiu> Adobe flash for linux don't stream some flash sites :D
[21:42] <Vinceman> a DEXXA webcam
[21:42] <EuphoniC> jaunty? dont really want GUI
[21:42] <EuphoniC> slow computer
[21:42] <roygbiv> sergiu: if you have a need for some other specific OS
[21:42] <Vinceman> trism if you buy a webcam from the store nowadays do you get linux drivers included with them?
[21:42] <iceroot> EuphoniC: maybe the server-cd is also activating the raid
[21:42] <iceroot> EuphoniC: or just purge gnome-desktop
[21:43] <iceroot> EuphoniC: or dont start x/gdm :)
[21:43] <mazda01> guntbert, i used disk usage analyzer but it's not really helping me find offending files
[21:43] <un|matrix> how do i see what my current mouse polling interval is in ubuntu?
[21:43] <EuphoniC> iceroot: but I dont quite understand how the raid could be the problem here?
[21:43] <trism> Vinceman: unless it says it supports linux on the box, it is probably unlikely
[21:44] <sergiu> roygbiv: hope that the new realise of adobe flash for lin will fix this..
[21:44] <iceroot> EuphoniC: because grub cant detect the raid-array if it is not activated with dmraid (what the alternate-cd is doing)
[21:44] <iceroot> EuphoniC: maybe give it a try? if it is not working you can use usb-flash or buy a ide-drive
[21:44] <Flats> OK getting close. I set up OPen SSH and when I connect, I get the SSh-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5ubuntu1 but never get a login?
[21:44] <EuphoniC> i'll give it a shot :)
[21:45] <iceroot> Flats: sudo apt-get install openssh-server?
[21:45] <roygbiv> Flats sounded like you used telnet
[21:45] <iceroot> EuphoniC: good luck
[21:45] <Welshy-Rob> hi i want to burn a .iso file onto a cd anyone know a good program?
[21:45] <trism> Vinceman: Might want to check out this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras if you're thinking of getting a new one
[21:45] <Cleric_JohnPrest> nero
[21:45] <iceroot> Welshy-Rob: k3b or brasero
[21:45] <guntbert> mazda01: then you will have to change you point of view maybe (about where some files are ok and where they are not - and maybe they are not in your biggest tree - get creative :-)
[21:45] <Cleric_JohnPrest> is goos
[21:45] <erUSUL> Welshy-Rob: right click on it> choose writtw to disk
[21:45] <Cleric_JohnPrest> good
[21:45] <nsahoo> any idea why home key may not be working?
[21:45] <Cleric_JohnPrest> for burning iso
[21:45] <roygbiv> you don't telnet to connect to the ssh port, you use ssh to connect to the ssh port
[21:45] <Welshy-Rob> kk ta
[21:45] <Flats> No I used hyperterm and connected to port 22
[21:45] <erUSUL> !keys | nsahoo
[21:45] <dennis_> I have just installed 9.04 fresh to this PC and can't get the duel head GFX card to work as it was before. I need help from an ATI expert
[21:45] <Flats> ahh maybe hyperterm is only telnet?
[21:46] <roygbiv> hmm, not familiar with hyperterm
[21:46] <erUSUL> Flats: you need and ssh client like putty
[21:46] <Flats> damn. sooo close. Thanks guys...and girls
[21:47] <roygbiv> Flats if you're on windows then use putty. it's very nice
[21:47] <Vinceman> trism thx for everything
[21:47] <brantg> Hello, I have Hardy on a system that was partitioned out automatically (use entire disk), and after many updates the /boot files were winding up past the 1,024th cylinder, making GRUB die with Error 17.  I shifted / over with GParted, inserting a new 100Mb /boot partition at the front of the disk, and on reboot, all the UUID-references in fstab were invalid.  I checked blkid, but while the UUIDs still showed there, they could no longer
[21:47] <trism> Vinceman: np, hope you get it working
[21:48] <erUSUL> brantg: when you edit the parition table some filesystem change uuid
[21:48] <erUSUL> brantg: you need to update the grub conf file and /etc/fstab
[21:49] <brantg> erUSUL: I did assume that would be the case, but the reported numbers in blkid simply don't work - attempts to mount by UUID always claim the UUID doesn't exist,.
[21:49] <kl_> brantg: Are you in a livecd?
[21:49] <erUSUL> brantg: :|
[21:49] <brantg> kl_: No, this is a fully installed (and long-running) workstation.
[21:50] <epl> brantg: did you try using device names instead of uuids?
[21:50] <darkham> hi, i need help with a 30gb disk with ex3 partition
[21:50] <Welshy-Rob> erUSUL, i just did that and it told me there was a error writing to disk?
[21:50] <darkham> i used it right for 2 months
[21:50] <darkham> now the system check it as less (21gb)
[21:51] <brantg> epl: Like I said, I did switch to using device names, and that does work - I'm satisfied to leave it that way, but I'd like to learn what I borked by doing what I did.  Someday I might need to know :)
[21:51] <kl_> brantg: Since you just formatted the disk would it be easier to just reinstall everything again?
[21:51] <darkham> fsck.ext3 give me "bad superblock"
[21:51] <erUSUL> Welshy-Rob: i know this does not help  but allways worked for me... try with brasero
[21:51] <darkham> and testdisk don't find a backup of it
[21:51] <epl> brantg: sorry, missed that
[21:51] <revygttam> darkham, perhaps its going bad?
[21:51] <rappr> Anyone have Flash10 full-screen playing smooth on Ubuntu 9.04?
[21:51] <erUSUL> Welshy-Rob: aplications>sound and video> brasero
[21:52] <darkham> revygttam, it seems works right
[21:52] <Welshy-Rob> erUkk thx
[21:52] <Welshy-Rob> erUSUL, thanks kk
[21:52] <brantg> kl_: I didn't format it, I used gparted to move / over by 100Mb and add a new /boot partition.  I'm working on the theory that that is what caused it all, frankly.
[21:52] <darkham> revygttam, i've "bad superblock"
[21:52] <revygttam> darkham, yea thats kinda odd though, its just a guess but perhaps its failing on the back end of the drive.   Can I stop it?
[21:53] <revygttam> rappr: how did you install adobe?  Are you using the .deb from adobe's website, that works fine for me but the one in the repos sucks.
[21:53] <darkham> revygttam, i've http://pastebin.com/m81e4b6e
[21:53] <kl_> brantg: Ok you had only /. Then you split and made 100mb /boot?
[21:53] <rappr> revygttam, I'll give that a try.
[21:53] <m1dlg> I cant get my ati card to work properly, anyone have any ideas what I can try? I've installed the drivers using Administration>Hardware Drivers and they say they say active, but nothing works
[21:53] <erUSUL> haris: is an implementation of Zeroconf for linux (apple call it rendevouz)
[21:53] <darkham> revygttam: i must recover data...
[21:54] <revygttam> darkham, do you have problems viewing files on the drive?
[21:54] <darkham> revygttam, yes, i cant mount it
[21:54] <revygttam> rappr, theres .deb at adobe.com just use dpkg to install that
[21:55] <brantg> kl_: Yes, to corral my boot files and keep GRUB under the 1,024th cylinder.  Please understand, the system is up and running now, I just don't understand why my UUIDs no longer work for mounting.
[21:55] <rappr> revygttam, will do, thanks
[21:55] <revygttam> darkham, i would take the opportunity to at least backup the data, if it randomly happend, it might randomly happen again
[21:55] <revygttam> darkham, i misread, you cant mount
[21:56] <haris> ah thanks erUSUL . By the way if I am not running Gnome do I still need system-tools-backends service running?
[21:56] <revygttam> darkham, are you able to view the partition in gparted?  Sometimes you can get some more details from that
[21:56] <darkham> revygttam, not
[21:57] <revygttam> maybe even use a live cd of partmagic 4.4 and check the smart monitor tool to see if its reporting an issue
[21:57] <erUSUL> haris: dunno
[21:57] <revygttam> darkham, it really sounds like the drive might be corrupt
[21:58] <Treyh_> anyone have an example cupsd.conf to show how to share a network printer
[21:58] <revygttam> is this a multi-partitioned hard drive?
[21:58] <haris> erUSUL, all right man. And finally, why are all of cron, anacron, atd all running? Can't everything be grouped together?
[21:58] <revygttam> darkham; is this a multi-partitoined hard drive
[21:58] <noshelter> can somebody tell me what their alsamixer config is for their front/front mic/front mic boost/mic channels?
[21:58] <noshelter> by default i mean
[21:58] <darkham> revygttam, not it's only an ext3 partition
[21:58] <mariusz> hello
[21:58] <darkham> all the disc
[21:59] <erUSUL> haris: at and cron do two different things
[21:59] <kl_> brantg: I see. Well you can try to make new UUID
[21:59] <haris> hmm I see
[22:00] <haris> All right makes sense
[22:00] <revygttam> darkham: what error does it throw when you try to mount the drive?
[22:00] <brantg> kl_: I thought blkid was my only route - how do I assign a new one?
[22:00] <darkham> revygttam,  bad superblock
[22:00] <revygttam> darkham: oh i thought that was just from running fsck
[22:00] <noshelter> can somebody tell me what their alsamixer config is for their front/front mic/front mic boost/mic channels by default --- please....?
[22:01] <erUSUL> brantg: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ match blkid output ?
[22:01] <kl_> brantg: does not the blkid command show you which UUID you have?
[22:01] <revygttam> noshelter: im not sure what mine are or where to get them but i think thats hardware specific so im not sure if thats gonna help you too much.
[22:01] <darkham> revygttam, oh, when i try to mount i've "mount: you must specify the filesystem type"
[22:01] <kl_> brantg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingUUID should help you
[22:02] <nibbler_> how can i make my firefox/flashplugin use my usb headset for audio-out? it seems to be stuck to my pci-soundcard, and ignoring the settings i made in system->preferences->sounds

[22:02] <noshelter> revygttam: type alsamixer in a terminal and check for urself, its volume control
[22:02] <brantg> erSUL: NO!  I never paid close enough attention to notice that!  The / partition no longer matches what it was previously
[22:03] <erUSUL> brantg: :)
[22:03] <noshelter> revygttam: it should not be hardware specific*(at least i dont think so)

[22:06] <revygttam> noshleter, no i havent ;(
[22:06] <brantg> erUSUL, k;_: To clarify, in case anyone else is interested - blkid still reports the original values, but the entries beneath /dev/disk/by-uuid differ from the values that used to be there prior to my repartitioning.  From what I can tell, the /dev/disk/by-uuid values are the correct ones.  Thank you for the help!

[22:10] <revygttam> darkham,im not really sure what else you can do.  If it were me id end up giving up on it at this point.  Its probably a corrupt partition and needs to be blown away.  You could check the logs but, a bad superblock is normally not a good error to come across
[22:10] <kl_> brantg: I suggest then you clear the UUID with tune2fs -U clear /dev
[22:11] <fatalnix> want me to spoonfeed too?
[22:11] <kl_> brantg: Then create a new one with the same command but with random or time input. Read more at man tune2fs
[22:12] <rlee> question: how do i set permission access on network devices? i was looking for the /dev/eth0... but obviously it's not there now...
[22:12] <erUSUL> rlee: ifaces do not have device files
[22:12] <rlee> erUSUL: thanks... i found that out... but how do I set permissions on them then?
[22:12] <brantg> kl_: Got it, thanks, I'll do that
[22:13] <erUSUL> rlee: you can not. only root can change its properties though
[22:13] <Winball> I think i used a tool to upgrade kernel earlier. Anybody know? I think it was gui
[22:13] <rlee> erUSUL: ok... so anyone can bind to the interface? but i can change its various interface properties via root
[22:14] <unop> rlee, what do you mean "bind to the interface"?
[22:14] <erUSUL> rlee: bind ?
[22:14] <rlee> erUSUL: yea, open a socket on it
[22:14] <erUSUL> rlee: yes (unless it is raw)
[22:14] <unop> rlee, any user can create a socket on the ephemeral (>1024) ports -- for the lower ones, only root can.
[22:15] <rlee> erUSUL: ok... thanks
[22:15] <erUSUL> rlee: and the port limit unop says
[22:15] <unop> rlee, but then again, sockets don't really have much to do with the interfaces
[22:15] <rlee> unop: thanks, i figured that out too
[22:15] <rlee> unop: i was thinking simplist... like just setting chmod 600 on the device... but it seems that is not possible
[22:15] <realbadapple> does anyone know if the keyserver is broken at 'keyserver.ubuntu.com'
[22:16] <realbadapple> I keep getting time out server erros
[22:16] <unop> rlee, well, that doesn't make sense - most users on a networked computer require some sort of network connectivity
[22:16] <realbadapple> trying to send-keys for launchpad
[22:16] <rlee> unop: right, but not if there are two interfaces... they just need access to one
[22:17] <rlee> unop: i want to block out the other from being accessed
[22:17] <unop> rlee, maybe, i dunno - depends on your setup
[22:17] <blip-> yo ubuntu where's my xscreensaver manpage
[22:17] <Wizards> Hello can anyone help me with an error when I dual boot XP/Linux? My XP partition says Starting up... NTLDR is missing press ctrl+alt+del to restart. Now my friend gave me his files named NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM and Boot.ini but I don't know where to put these files can anyone help?
[22:17] <baran> gggg
[22:18] <erUSUL> Wizards: that is a question for ##windows
[22:18] <dartagnon> Does anyone know of X having problems working with DVI-D outputs?
[22:18] <unop> rlee, well, do any of your users use the other interface at all? you could take the interface down if not.
[22:18] <nicklas_> what is the easiest way to install e17 in ubuntu? is it through their website or is there an easier way? e17 is not in repos, only e16
[22:18] <shawn_> Amaranth: Still got the compiz error
[22:19] <rlee> unop: yes, local users use one interface, and subnet users use another interface
[22:19] <erUSUL> !ppa | nicklas_ maybe someone make packages of it
[22:19] <rlee> unop: i want to prevent local users from opening sockets on the subnet interface
[22:19] <soreau> shawn_: Are you running karmic?
[22:19] <IdleOne> !e17
[22:19] <Amaranth> soreau: No, not that error :)
[22:19] <Amaranth> soreau: that one is fixed, btw
[22:19] <unop> rlee, I would use iptables for this purpose
[22:19] <soreau> Amaranth: I saw, thanks. Also, I'm not following along here ;)
[22:20] <Neil_Sun> quit
[22:20] <baran> hello
[22:20] <erUSUL> !hi
[22:20] <rlee> unop: that's the point.... if i have two seperate rule chains for local users, and one for the subnet, the local user can just bind a socket to the subnet interface and bypass the rules for the local interface
[22:21] <unop> rlee, not if you have a rule that prevents traffic from accessing opened sockets tho ..
[22:21] <spursncowboys> Is there a command for the terminal to find out the internet speed?
[22:21] <rlee> unop: what do u mean?
[22:21] <realbadapple> @spurs use 'netstat -i -c'
[22:22] <jophish_> If I have a file, made by ls -R, of everything under one folder, and I have another folder, with all that stuff in, and some extra, and I want to remove the extra. how would I do that. i.e. remove everything that isn't in the file made by ls -R
[22:22] <unop> rlee, let's say you have a rule that drops all packets to the local address unless an outgoing connection is already established - a user may setup a socket, but it will be unusable.
[22:22] <spursncowboys> realbadapple: thanks
[22:22] <erUSUL> jophish_: use grsync to sync the two folders
[22:23] <realbadapple> @spurs use 'Ctrl-c' when finished
[22:23] <unop> jophish, this is a question for #bash - they have a FAQ for this.
[22:23] <erUSUL> jophish_: check the "delete on destination"
[22:23] <rlee> unop: ahh ok i didn't connect that piece when i was setting up my tables... i'll try it out real quick brb
[22:23] <jophish_> I used rsync to generate the flder in the first place, and It made two copies of everything with an accented letter
[22:23] <erUSUL> o.0!
[22:23] <jophish_> thanks anyway erUSUL and unop

[22:25] <FuRom> I need some help with ext2resize version 1.1.17.... I've never built anything before and I'm guessing it isn't as simple as 'sudo make'
[22:25] <erUSUL> FuRom: only make install needs sudo
[22:26] <Pici> kl_: you need to spell your name correctly to get the PMs
[22:26] <kl_> Pici: don't get any pms
[22:27] <OldSmoke> i still have a ubuntu nvidia problem trying to get sli to work
[22:27] <FuRom> erUSUL, making it gives me an error regardless though. It says "make: *** [config.status] Error 2" and I'm unsure what I should do in the process of fixing the issue.
[22:27] <OldSmoke> 1 card i can go 2 cards no x
[22:27] <tingi> how do i find global array overrun or incorrect indexing ? i tried valgrind it doesn't work. something like  int arr[10] ; int main(){ arr[10]=3; return 0; } passes
[22:27] <dartagnon> Should Ubuntu be able to automatically choose the right settings for my monitor?  How can I check/change/set the right options?
[22:28] <kl_> FuRom:
[22:28] <Pici> !uuid > kl_
[22:28] <markarnold> when is 10.4 out
[22:28] <ctmjr> OldSmoke: do both cards show up in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[22:28] <Pici> !10.04 | markarnold
[22:28] <FuRom> kl_ ?
[22:28] <kl_> FuRom: Sometimes you need to configure your system first by running ./configure
[22:28] <markarnold> any one there
 i think so i took 1 out so i could get to a desktop
[22:29] <FuRom> kl_, thanks a million. Problem solved....
[22:29] <erUSUL> FuRom: sudo apt-get build-dep e2fsprogs
[22:29] <rlee> unop: thanks, that cleared up that part
[22:29] <OldSmoke> ultimate 2.3 is wicked

[22:30] <kl_> Pici: Got the pm now. :)
[22:30] <markarnold> any one seen it yet is it good
[22:30] <rlee> unop: the socket is bound to the iface address, but no connects are accepted because of the table rule
 yes
[22:30] <unop> rlee, yea, that's the idea exactly
 ill update reboot and take a look at the config
[22:31] <rlee> now to go mess up my routing tables
[22:31] <Pici> markarnold: 10.04 exists in name only.
[22:31] <OldSmoke> new kernel updatee anyways

[22:33] <ctmjr> OldSmoke: ok
[22:33] <lovre> one question. I have linux (kubuntu) on my machine that is connected to a LAN network (lots of computers)... And we are all sharing connection. Now, if i start XAMPP (Apache server), will that in any way inpact anything on the network? Will my computer interfere with any server on the network? Someone told me i could block people from using internet, because their computer will try to obtain IP from my server instead the real one... Any info on this?
[22:33] <markarnold> do these forums do any good
[22:34] <master> how can I change to a channel ?

[22:35] <ctmjr> master: irc channel?
[22:35] <Jordan_U> lovre: No, running just an Apache server will not interfere with anything, your friend was probably thinking of a DHCP server
[22:36] <master> yes ctmjr
[22:36] <Epoxy> anyone had any success with getting cups-pdf to print to email?
[22:36] <ctmjr> master: /join #channel name
[22:36] <coma_> need info about DRBD
[22:37] <ant0xa> hi.
[22:37] <fbianconi> lovre: apache by it self can't (it just listens port 80), but XAMPP isn't just apache right?
[22:37] <coma_> hi!
[22:37] <OldSmoke> any quakelive people in here?
[22:37] <lovre> Jordan_U: yes, i know about DHCP server, but i was thinking since im not running pure Apache, but XAMPP, maybe it had something like that included also, i dont know
[22:37] <master> thanks ctmjr
[22:38] <ZykoticK9> OldSmoke, i play it a bit - i'm not very good though
[22:38] <lovre> fbianconi: thats right, thats why im asking, since i know xampp is not only apache, im not sure what else it has, and can it interfere with LAN computers or server
 me either but it is fun
[22:38] <dennis> !ati
[22:38] <ctmjr> master: your welcome
[22:38] <ant0xa> i'm new to ubuntu. i've installed languages that i need but i cant switch them. with ctrl+alt don't work
[22:38] <dennis> that was a good guess :)
[22:39] <OldSmoke> dont know why ubuntu is the only 1 i have video probs with
[22:39] <angelo> need some help, im trying to install OpenBravo software, is a Point of sale software for Linux, installation comes up, but it tells me that i need privalegs of super user or root, how can i login as the administrator in the terminal with the sudo command?
[22:39] <dennis> I can't get my video to work either
[22:39] <OldSmoke> but after playing with ultimate 2.3 ill have to figure it out lol
[22:39] <erUSUL> angelo: sudo -i
[22:39] <angelo> thanks
[22:39] <erUSUL> !rootshell | angelo
[22:39] <angelo> let me check it out
[22:40] <jer_> Can someone help me get CUPS running on 9.04. Yesterday it worked, today it wont let me print. Anyone?
[22:40] <Jordan_U> lovre: AFIK XAMPP is just Apache + MySQL + Perl + Python ( which is pretty easy to setup with Ubuntu without XAMPP ) so still nothing that would interfere with your network
[22:41] <lovre> Jordan_U: ok, thanks. And another question, can i configure http server (Apache) to work only locally, so it doesnt listen to port 80 or any port. At the moment anyone on the LAN can see my localhost page by entering my local IP
[22:41] <adhok_> Hi, I downloaded an update via the update manager a few hours ago, then hopped over to win to game.. log back into ubuntu to get some work done and conky isnt working right.. is there a way to check my most recent updates?
[22:42] <ant0xa> yee
[22:42] <ant0xa> works
[22:43] <jer_> Any takers?
[22:43] <Jordan_U> lovre: Yes, but not the warning on the XAMPP website: "The default configuration is not good from a securtiy point of view and it's not secure enough for a production environment - please don't use XAMPP in such environment."

[22:45] <dcosta> hey all
[22:45] <theclaw> hi
[22:45] <physic> i use this in terminal gksu natilus
[22:45] <adhok_> hiya
[22:45] <lovre> Jordan_U: well, i use it only for local testing while developing PHP scripts... should be ok...

[22:45] <dcosta> hey guys any one have problems whit samba user permissions ?

[22:46] <adhok_> Hi, I downloaded an update via the update manager a few hours ago, then hopped over to win to game.. log back into ubuntu to get some work done and conky isnt working right.. is there a way to check what packages were recently updated?
[22:46] <dimkkvel> neos
[22:46] <Jordan_U> angelo: You don't need a root shell, just run whatever setup script sith "sudo /path/to/script.sh". You can exit the root shell you are currently in by typing "exit"
[22:46] <dcosta> is there any gui for samba4 ?
[22:46] <angelo> ahhhh ok
[22:46] <physic> how i can be root in desktop too
[22:46] <angelo> it's CD ../home whatever directory is
[22:47] <dyek> Hi! I want to look at the listing of available source code packages for any Ubuntu distribution releases and download (using wget) arbitrary selected source packages from the repository. How can I figure out the URL to the actual packages given the content of sources.list?
[22:47] <jer_> Someone to help me get Ubuntu to see my printer? CUPS seems to not be working though Synaptic says it is installed. Thoughts?
[22:47] <dcosta> physic: activar destop login for root user

[22:48] <NoReflex> Hey guys! I'm trying to compile the latest version of pgadmin3 (v1.10.0) in Ubuntu Jaunty (the version 1.8.4) has some problems with postgresq-server8.4. The thing is I want pgadmin3 to be configured (compiled and installed) just like the version form Jaunty's repos. Is there a way to find out which flags options were used to compile the version in the repos? (like where to store the bainary files, the lib files, where to store logs, where to store configura
[22:48] <NoReflex> tion files)
[22:48] <adhok_> Thanks a ton Jordan_U
[22:48] <dcosta> in administration user and grups

[22:48] <physic> dcosta,
[22:49] <Jordan_U> NoReflex: You might want to just backport the package from Karmic or Debain unstable/testing ( note I do NOT mean use the binary package )
[22:49]  * dragon drops a pin.
[22:49] <dcosta> physic: http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg24t4.htm
[22:49] <NoReflex> This information about the configure options used  when compiling software in the repos would be very helpful on any other programs as well. Kind of like some general information.
[22:49] <Jordan_U> !backport | NoReflex
[22:50] <dcosta> root desktop in a security problem
[22:50] <Jordan_U> NoReflex: Sorry, wrong factoid
[22:50] <dcosta> but your box P
[22:50] <dcosta> *is
[22:50] <physic> dcosta,i dont know what u talking about
[22:51] <dcosta> you want login as root in desktop ?
[22:51] <Scarra3> What would you say is the best tutorial to make Ubuntu look like OS X
[22:51] <dcosta> yes ?
[22:51] <adhok_> lol wow 4 pckg upgrades dumps quite a bit into the log file :)
[22:51] <physic> yeah
[22:51] <kl_> Scarra3: There are some themes at gnome-looks.org
[22:51] <Scarra3> kl_-There are themes but they dont work that well.
[22:52] <NoReflex> Jordan_U, in Jaunty's backports there are no updated packages for pgadmin or postgresql for that matter and I've been told not to mix repos between releases
[22:52] <mechdave> Scarra3, I use a combination of avant window manager and gdesklets for mine
[22:52] <sixnonep> Hi Guys, I'm trying to copy a backup.tar.bz2 to an external usb drive. The file is 8Gb. The transfer gets to 4 Gb and then stops. any ideas?
[22:52] <fbianconi> dyek: you can use synaptic for generating a script for downloading the selected packages
[22:53] <erUSUL> sixnonep: is a fat32 disk ?
[22:53] <NoReflex> sixnonep, you probably have a filesystem that doesn't support file bigger than 4 GB on the flash drive (fat maybe)?
[22:53] <Jordan_U> NoReflex: Sorry, that was the wrong factoid, there used to be a factoid about how to recompile source packages from Ubuntu+1 or debian so that they could be used in an older ( stable ) release
[22:53] <sixnonep> Ah yes.
[22:53] <sixnonep> Did'nt check that...
[22:54] <compgenius999> i just installed a 2nd video card, how would i check how much video ram it has from ubuntu?
[22:54] <erUSUL> sixnonep: then you have to split the file in less than 4 GiB parts
[22:54] <kl_> Scarra3: Well most of Mac themes are there. If you want dock you need to install it separate.
[22:54] <jer_> Anyone hep me get 9.04 working with my printer? Please?
[22:54] <NoReflex> !lshw | compgenius999

[22:54] <erUSUL> sixnonep: use the split command...
[22:54] <dyek> fbianconi: Thanks for the response. Is there a way to assemble an URL from sources.list and web sites specified by the URLs contained within it?
[22:54] <NoReflex> :P
[22:54] <compgenius999> i did lspci
[22:55] <compgenius999> its detected fine
[22:55] <theclaw> I installed libdvdcss2, however I still can't play a DVD? I get I/O errors in dmesg, mplayer tells me "CRC check failed!" - what to try next?
[22:55] <compgenius999> btu doesnt say amount of ram on it
[22:55] <NoReflex> compgenius999, did you try dmidecode?
[22:55] <compgenius999> nope
[22:55] <compgenius999> lemme try

[22:56] <dragon> jer_: what's the issue?
[22:56] <Fishscene> Greetings. Does Ubuntu 9.04 server handle RPM packages?
[22:56] <noshelter> ok, can anybody with a mic turn on the front mic channel and the front channel in alsamixer? or gnome volume control, --- can you please let me know if your mic echoes any sound into ur speakers?
[22:56] <Jordan_U> !rpm | Fishscene
[22:56] <jer_> dragon, thanks. I cant seem to get my printet to print. I have CUPS installed, but no joy. Thoughts?

[22:57] <theclaw> kl_: it was .dvdcss - thanks! :)
[22:57] <compgenius999> would having a 2nd graphics card install increase my ubuntu graphics performance?
[22:57] <ctmjr> compgenius999: just type free in a terminal
[22:57] <dragon> jer_: is it a LAN printer or a USB? Did you add it to the list of printers?
[22:58] <marin> prrrrrr
[22:58] <compgenius999> ctmjr i'm talking about graphics ram
[22:58] <compgenius999> not installed ram which i already know
[22:58] <dragon> compgenius999: It depends on what you're comparing with. Graphics cards have their own outputs, so they don't affect each other.
[22:59] <compgenius999> hey dragon they are both old graphics cards
[22:59] <jer_> dragon, USB. I cant seem to add it to the list of printers. I have no icon or option. Just says not connected.
[22:59] <compgenius999> and i need to find out how much ram they each have
[22:59] <jer_> dragon, when I try to connect to local host, I get, "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'httpConnectionEncrypt failed'."
[22:59] <ctmjr> compgenius999: yes i see that now sorry
[22:59] <dragon> jer_: System > Administration > Printing
[22:59] <kl_> theclaw: Happy watching the movie then :)
[22:59] <Jordan_U> Fishscene: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Server
[23:00] <compgenius999> so far this 2nd graphics card seems to have made ubuntu less laggy
[23:00] <Fishscene> Jordan: Thanks
[23:00] <Jordan_U> Fishscene: np
[23:00] <jer_> dragon, yes, that is where I am. It wont allow me to add a printer. Just says, "not connected".
[23:00] <compgenius999> i know my first graphics card only has 64mb graphics ram
[23:00] <compgenius999> the new one i have no idea about
[23:01] <colblood> my first only had 0.5mb ram
[23:01] <dragon> jer_: Is the printer connected?
[23:01] <dragon> jer_: and switched on?
[23:01] <jer_> dragon, yes, connected.
[23:02] <dragon> jer_: disconnect the printer's usb connection and then run `dmesg | tail -20`
[23:03] <dragon> jer_: then connect the printer, and run that command again. pastebin the output
[23:03] <dragon> jer_: an easier way to pastebin the output at the end would be `dmesg | pastebinit`
[23:04] <dsdeiz> hi there! e.g. in deluge there is an option to open containing folder. so how do i set what file manager it would use? :-/
[23:04] <jer_> dragon, this is what i got after following your instructions..."[272839.403671]: command not found"
[23:04] <dragon> gotta go
[23:05] <jer_> dragon, sorry, how do I  pastebin?
[23:06] <dsdeiz> jer_: do you have pastebinit installed?
[23:06] <ctmjr> compgenius999: run lspci then find the video card make a note of the numbers in front of it the run sudo lspci -v -s 01:00.0 < change this number to the one you found
[23:06] <dragonlyre> jer_ at the top of the page in the MOTD is a link to pastebin :)
[23:06] <jer_> dragon, I guess not :-(
[23:07] <Trulypoison> I have a problem with my wireless networking program, does anyone think they could help me?
[23:07] <Jordan_U> !anyone | Trulypoison
[23:07] <Trulypoison> of course
[23:08] <dyek> Lets say I found in Packages.gz that udev package Filename is pool/main/u/udev/udev_141-1_i386.deb. What is the exact URL to this package so that I can use wget to fetch it?
[23:08] <Trulypoison> I just installed ubunto onto a gateway mx6455, and the ethernet connection works, however even though the wireless componant is turned on (from the XP partition) and from the ubunto system, it will not find any wireless networks that i know exists
[23:09] <Jordan_U> Trulypoison: Have you checked if you need drivers with System > Administration > Hardware Drivers?
[23:09] <jer_> dragon, ok here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/276108/
[23:09] <compgenius999> 00:09.0
[23:09] <Trulypoison> let me recheck that
[23:10] <compgenius999> ohhh i get it
[23:10] <Trulypoison> it says no proprietary drivers are in use by this system
[23:10] <compgenius999> ctmjr, it worked, it says 64mb graphics ram
[23:10] <Jordan_U> Trulypoison: Ok, do you know the chipset of your wireless card?
[23:11] <Trulypoison> unfortunately no i do not, is there a way to find that without having to go to my xp partition?
[23:11] <the_dark_warrio> Is there a shortcut to swap between current window and last focused window?
[23:12] <Jordan_U> Trulypoison: lshw -c network ( don't paste the output here )
[23:12] <Trulypoison> kk
[23:12] <compgenius999> hey does anybody know if this 2nd graphics card will make my ubuntu any faster?
[23:12] <ctmjr> compgenius999: was there ever any  doubt ;)
[23:13] <compgenius999> lol
[23:13] <compgenius999> i have a hercules 3d 4000xt with 64mb video ram, and now i have an S3 ViRGE Fastware in it aswell
[23:14] <MTec007> how would i be able to share read write files on a ubuntu system, to my home lan? the files are on xubuntu but i need to be able to read and write from ubuntu on another system as well. a command line way would be the best solution if possible
[23:14] <jer_> dragon, any thoughts?
[23:15] <Trulypoison> interesting
[23:15] <Trulypoison> appearently the wireless tool was never enabled from the application settings
[23:16] <Trulypoison> but thats something else entirely
[23:16] <eldon_> I cannot get firefox to use adobe flash player
[23:17] <beto> hey, I am helping a friend setup ubuntu. we have installed all the necessary gstreamer codecs for rhythmbox and he still can't play .wma files is there something else that needs to be installed
[23:17] <beto> ?
[23:17] <eldon_> tge farm game will not open in firefox
[23:17] <MTec007> eldon_, did you install flashplugin-installer ?
[23:17] <eldon_> yes
[23:17] <Trulypoison> is there a way to increase the amount of space a partition can have after creating it?
[23:18] <Trulypoison> it seems i didn't give it more than it absolutely needed
[23:18] <MTec007> did you also install flashplugin-nonfree?
[23:18] <Jordan_U> Trulypoison: Yes, you can use a tool called gparted
[23:18] <jer_> dragon, it keeps telling me "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'httpConnectionEncrypt failed'." when i try to connect localhost.
[23:18] <NitroD> gparted is an easy tool
[23:18] <MTec007> eldon_, see above
[23:18] <Trulypoison> does it come with the system disk?
[23:19] <eldon_> I downloaded and installed adobe
[23:19] <mrwes> beto are the wma file DMR restricted?
[23:19] <MTec007> eldon_, if you do have flashplugin-nonfree then there is a conflict and you need to remove one of them
[23:19] <mrwes> er...DRM
[23:20] <NitroD> Trulypoison, are you trying to dual boot?
[23:20] <beto> not sure
[23:20] <ctmjr> !codecs | beto
[23:20] <Jordan_U> Trulypoison: It is available in the LiveCD if that is what you mean
[23:20] <Trulypoison> it's already been configured to duaboot
[23:20] <eldon_> ok will try
[23:20] <Trulypoison> dualboot*
[23:20] <MTec007> eldon_, you can remove flashplugin-nonfree and leave flashplugin-installer and everything should work ok
[23:20] <eldon_> ok thanks
[23:20] <NitroD> Trulypoison, i sent you a query. I can help you there i think
[23:20] <t0s> my volume levels seem to be messed up, its like i only get volume when the slider is half way and up anything below half way i get no sound, like there is no low sound levels
[23:20] <Trulypoison> thank god
[23:21] <lovre> via what command can i send mail from ubuntu? i tried "mail" but there is no such command
[23:21] <NitroD> t0s, open up all the volume sliders. OSM i think it is might be low
[23:21] <NitroD> you have to turn that all the way up for master to work well
[23:21] <beto> mrwes: I do not think they are he ripped them from CD's
[23:21] <beto> mrwes
[23:22] <jer_> dragon, it says, "The CUPS spooler does not appear to be running." Thoughts?
[23:22] <mrwes> beto, did install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package?
[23:22] <beto> mrwes: yes
[23:23] <t0s> NitroD, i have every slider all the way up
[23:23] <Jordan_U> beto: Can he play them in totem? If nothing else it usually will tell you what you are missing.
[23:23] <mrwes> beto, do you happen to have cross fade enabled in Rhythmbox?
[23:23] <NitroD> t0s, did you enable all the sliders in the options menu?
[23:24] <MTec007> how would i be able to share read write files on a ubuntu system, to my home lan? the files are on xubuntu but i need to be able to read and write from ubuntu on another system as well. a command line way would be the best solution to set it up, if possible
[23:24] <jer_> dragon, BRB. Rebooting
[23:24] <kl_> lovre: You mean making your own mail server?
[23:25] <t0s> NitroD, yup
[23:25] <t0s> NitroD, everything is up
[23:25] <M1DLG> hurra, I fixed it all :)
[23:25] <beto> mrwes: it says it need the windows media audio decoder what package do I install to get that
[23:25] <NitroD> is there volume adjustment on the speakers themselves/
[23:25] <t0s> NitroD, yeah its all the way up as well
[23:26] <mrwes> beto, read up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[23:26] <OldSmoke> i have an nvidia problem with ubuntu
[23:26] <NitroD> t0s, sending you a query
[23:26] <Jordan_U> beto: You might need w32codecs from the medubuntu repository
[23:26] <t0s> nitrod, ok
[23:26] <kl_> beto: you might try to install some codes from http://www.medibuntu.org/
[23:26] <OldSmoke> i have 2 9500gt when i put both cards in x fails
[23:26] <OldSmoke> 1 card is fine
[23:27] <OldSmoke> newest drivers from nvidia 185. something
[23:27] <mrwes> beto, from a terminal type: sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[23:28] <ctmjr> OldSmoke: are both cards in now?
[23:28] <beto> mrwes: I did that already
[23:28] <ldlework> I am trying to disable ipv6 and lsmod doesn't list /anything/ concerning IPV6. Can anyone help me determine if IPV6 is enabled?
[23:28] <ldlework> I am running Jaunty
 no
[23:29] <OldSmoke> no x with both in
[23:29] <haris> Can I use Gnome / Ubuntu but replace metacity as Gnome's window manager?
[23:30] <Lenin_Cat> I just reinstalled ubuntu on my system because my old filesystem got messed up, however on my new installiation I think my packages are corrupt, I try to repair them, but  it seems the package contining the rt73usb module is also corrupted... which I need for my wifi card
[23:30] <mrwes> beto, did you check to see if you have cross fading enabled in Rhythmbox?
[23:30] <beto> mrwes: ok now rhythmbox is saying it needs the application/smil decoder
[23:30] <beto> mrwes: Crossfade is enabled
 i put it in then installed the drivers checked the config it is only seeing 1 card
[23:30] <mrwes> beto, there is a bug with cross fading AND wma files -- turn it off and see if they play
[23:31] <beto> mrwes: I did that too
[23:32] <jer_> dragon?
[23:32] <clayadavis> Hey everyone, it's been a long time since I've been here to ask for help, but this one is really frustrating. I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 and it seems that I've lost access to most of my MP3 files. By lost access, I mean ls -l gives me a bunch of question marks for owner, group and permissions, and I can't open the folders with dolphin without getting an "access denied". This happens even as root, and even in GNOME. Any ideas?
[23:32] <mrwes> beto, did you import the files/folder from another drive?
[23:33] <ctmjr> OldSmoke: you can try this and see if it works sudo nvidia-xconfig --sli=ON and reboot with bith cards in
[23:33] <beto> mrwes: no fromt the music folder in his home directory
[23:33] <mrwes> beto, hrmm...I'm stumped then
[23:33] <ctmjr> ^both
 k will try ty
[23:34] <mrwes> beto, maybe install VLC and see if they play?
[23:34] <Fishscene> Clay: Did you try resetting the permissions on those files?
[23:34] <clayadavis> Fishscene, I did. It gives me a bunch of "access denied" messages.
[23:35] <Fishscene> rofl.
[23:35] <Fishscene> Did you reset the owner of the files?
[23:35] <clayadavis> Fishscene, access denied
[23:35] <clayadavis> Fishscene, ridiculous right?
[23:36] <Fishscene> clayadavis: Pretty much.  I'm just saying it sounds like it. Unfortunately, beyond trying to reset the permissions/owner, I have no idea. Sorry =(
[23:37] <Guest63040> :P
[23:37] <alexnet> Hello, I am new to Ubuntu. I just did an apt-get install on php, I was wondering where it gets installed to?
[23:38] <clayadavis> The strange part is that the directory structure is still there somehow: for example, I don't have access to the folder intronaut, but ls -l intronaut gives me "ls: cannot access intronuaut/intronaut - [2006] - null: Permission denied
[23:38] <clayadavis> ls: cannot access intronuaut/intronaut - [2006] - void: Permission denied
[23:38] <clayadavis> total 0
[23:38] <clayadavis> d????????? ? ? ? ?                ? intronaut - [2006] - null
[23:38] <clayadavis> d????????? ? ? ? ?                ? intronaut - [2006] - void
[23:38] <FloodBot1> clayadavis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:38] <clayadavis> null and void are the two album names.
[23:38] <beto> mrwes: for some reason even vlc won't play them
[23:39] <haris> Anyone? Can I get rid of metacity and use something else instead?
[23:39] <mrwes> beto, Sorry, I'm stumped then
[23:39] <Keld> alexnet: I'm unsure where it will be on your particular system, but try 'whereis php'
[23:39] <clayadavis> Btw, did floodbot keep everyone from seeing that ls -l output I just pasted?
[23:40] <tgm4883> Running 9.04, with an ATI (x1300 I think) I'm unable to select the native resolution of the monitor (1680x1050).
[23:40] <ales> hi
[23:40] <ctmjr> clayadavis: nope we all had the privilege of seeing it
[23:41] <dragonlyre> alexnrt http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=258548 here is the answer
[23:41] <dragonlyre> alextnet that is
[23:41] <clayadavis> ctmjr, okay. I just wanted to know if I needed to pastebin it in case anyone was still reading what I was typing
[23:42] <alexnet> thanks
[23:42] <odiamar> hi. how to search for files and folders in ubuntu? thanks
[23:43] <dragonlyre> alexnet then you should be able to get it from the terminal or even Applications>Programming>PHP
[23:43] <clayadavis> Another quick question while I'm here, does anyone know how to change the default folder when one opens up a konsole?
[23:43] <Keld> odiamar: on the console, or gnome?
[23:44] <odiamar> on the gnome
[23:44] <Keld> odiamar, on the 'Places' menu there should be a 'Search for Files..' option
[23:45] <haris> Any command line junkies here? How do I use the output of a previous command as an argument in the current command?
[23:45] <haris> In bash of course

[23:47] <mustafa> i have setup ubuntu 9.04
[23:47] <mustafa> today
[23:47] <wewantutopia> pidgin has decided to quit starting at bootup....  anyone know how I would check the problem?  It is still in my startup applications and spelled correctly
[23:47] <mustafa> i have been cheking it since morning
[23:47] <mustafa> it is nice
[23:47] <haris> remo234, ok here's what I want. first I did "which gconftool" and the output was /usr/bin/gconftool .. next I want to do a "file" on that. So I could do file `which gconftool` but I don't want to type `which gconftool` again .. get what I am saying?
[23:47] <mustafa> but i got problem with visial effects
[23:47] <fbianconi> haris: "command2 `command 1`" or "command2 ${command 1}"
[23:47] <mustafa> thats why
[23:47] <mustafa> i got problem with my graphic card
[23:48] <mustafa> it is ati rodeon hd 3200
[23:48] <haris> fbianconi, that requires me to type "command 1" again .. is there anway I can bypass that since that was typed just previously?
[23:48] <mustafa> how can i do that
[23:48] <lstarnes> fbianconi: I thought it was $(command 1), not ${command 1}
[23:48] <fbianconi> lstarnes: my bad
[23:49] <mustafa> sooooooooooo??????????//
[23:50] <clayadavis> Fishscene, I fixed my problem actually just now. I had to "sudo su", and then change all the file permissions. Somehow plain "sudo chmod -R 755 Music/" wasn't root enough.

[23:54] <jer_> Can anyone help me get my printer recognized on 9.04 ubuntu please. I'm in desperate need.
[23:54] <dayglo98> anyone got 5 minutes ?

[23:55] <localhost__> somebody can help me...?
[23:55] <sharma> Hi, how come when i load firefox it turns grey and rreeze and i have to force quit, it is very annoying.
[23:55] <jer_> batrick, HP photosmart c4680
[23:56] <dayglo98> Anyone can help with X not starting up after updating packages in ubuntu 9.04 ?
[23:56] <Jordan_U> sharma: Try starting firefox in safe mode by running "firefox --safe-mode"
[23:56] <Jordan_U> dayglo98: What packages?
[23:56] <jer_> batrick, when I go to the printing secotion of Administration, it just says, not connected.
[23:56] <sharma> so that means i always have to start it in safe mode?
[23:56] <sharma> ]because it happens 50 times today and i dont like where this is going
[23:57] <dayglo98> the 166 packages that showed up after my first round of updating (right after installing xubuntu 9.04)
[23:57] <Jordan_U> sharma: No, it means that if safe mode works the problem is likely a plugin
[23:57] <bucky> rabidmachine9, /join #css
[23:57] <batrick> jer_: http://hplipopensource.com/
[23:57] <axle> hello, i bought a 750 barracuda, tried to install ms but it failed at making partitions, made partitions and formatted them with mkfs.ntfs, and windows still fails to reconize it can install(XP), vista just gives disc error right away when running installer, tried 3 dif win discs
[23:57] <sharma> but i have not even isntalled a signle plug in
[23:57] <batrick> follow the installation instructions. You will find ubuntu 9.04 does not support your printer by default
[23:57] <CaT_MaNZz> I have an open port but dont see which program blinded it. how can i check ?
[23:57] <soreau> trakcyia: ls|grep <string>
[23:57] <remo234> How do I add new workspaces to my GNOME desktop?
[23:57] <sharma> this just a fresh out of the box copy of ubuntu
[23:57] <rabidmachine9>  /join #css
[23:57] <batrick> You will need to install hplip manually.
[23:58] <jer_> batrick, when I try and connect it says, "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'httpConnectionEncrypt failed'." I have that file, but it wont let me even add a printer.
[23:58] <batrick> jer_: install hplip yourself, everything should be automatic afterwards.
[23:58] <axle> oh, and its a secondary drive
[23:58] <batrick> ping me later if you still have problems after installing the latest version of hplip
[23:58] <bucky> rabidmachine9, you started that line with a space take the space out
[23:58] <sharma> is there any possible solution?
[23:59] <jer_> batrick, I was sharing a printer before with my kids. Then I moved that printer to the other room. Now, witn my new printer, my computer wants to connect to "localhost", but can't. Thoughts?
[23:59] <rabidmachine9> thanks
