[15:57] <ActionParsnip> proper: what happens when you try to install the app?
[15:57] <[TK]D-Fender> BAI BAI
[15:58] <MeanEYE> meltingwax: ok, in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades file Prompt is lts should be normal
[15:58] <wzrdsg> I used synaptic and removed it
[15:58] <MeanEYE> meltingwax: once you change it back to normal, then do a release upgrade command
[15:58] <wzrdsg> do I have to restart still
[15:58] <MeanEYE> influx6: can you repeat now?
[15:58] <mrdeb> the LTS cd is not available from the ubuntu shop?
[15:59] <Izsha> 10.04 is LL and 10.10 is MM, right?
[15:59] <m1nt> :D
[15:59] <MeanEYE> Izsha: yes
[15:59] <ruan> Izsha: yea

[16:00] <Izsha> Savage^:  Are you still here?
[16:00] <Abhijit_> i just pressed some random key stroke accidentally and then laptop screen goes blank. but computer was on. i need to forcefully restart! :-( #strange
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> proper: pleasae reply in here. I don't support in PM
[16:00] <mrdeb> MeanEYE: is there a way to imprint a pretty lable on it though
[16:01] <vlaar> after removing you have to reboot
[16:01] <ruan> Abhijit_: sounds like a suspend key
[16:01] <wzrdsg> vlarr: ok thanks
[16:01] <DarkWell> +
[16:01] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: let me check something...
[16:01] <Abhijit> ruan, may be
[16:01] <Savage^> Izsha, yes?
[16:01] <ruan> Abhijit: is there any wake up key on your keyboard? or sleep?
[16:02] <Izsha> Savage^:  To theos's question, if it was a DNS issue, how would you go about solving that?
[16:02] <mrdeb> does lightscribe burn professional label to the front of the cd?
[16:02] <Abhijit> ruan, it is there but i hurried and restarted!
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> mrdeb: thats what the technology is for, yes
[16:02] <Savage^> im not sure, actually
[16:02] <llutz_> mrdeb: no, just kind of strange graphics on special media
[16:02] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: yeah seems there are no 10.04 disks
[16:02] <Savage^> i would hit google
[16:03] <theos> what to do if its a dns issue? and you cant open google :D
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[16:03] <ruan> theos: you can access the internet but only ip addresses
[16:03] <theos> oh. :(
[16:03] <person> Hey, where are desktop shortcuts stored? For example, when an application runs it automatically creates a shortcut, and I want to delete it every time this occurs.
[16:03] <mrdeb> does lightscribe burn to the label side or data side?
[16:03] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I'm unable to ping anything.
[16:03] <ruan> theos: you'll need to fix DNS
[16:04] <theos> ruan, how to do that?
[16:04] <MeanEYE> person: /usr/share/applications
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: not even IP addresses? Not even your routers internal IP?
[16:04] <ruan> theos: i havent got much experience with this, but i could suggest reinstalling network manager
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> ruan: if  user cannot ping the internal IP of the router its not DNS
[16:05] <person> Not in $HOME/Desktop ?
[16:05] <ruan> ActionParsnip: hmm
[16:05] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: other side, but you need a special disk
[16:05] <theos> Izsha, open terminal and type "ping -c 2 <IP_ADDRESS>"
[16:05] <MeanEYE> person: well, which shortcut are you refering to, if it's on desktop then yes, ~/Desktop but if it's applications menu then it's there
[16:05] <theos> ruan, my network manager doesnt work. :D i use wicd
[16:05] <person> I see, thanks.
[16:05] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I didn't do an indepth testing of what I could ping, I'm currently on a Win7 installation because there wasn't much I could do on 10.10 with no internet, but I was able to access my router's admin page, even though it did not acknowledge that I was connected to it from the attached devices table.
[16:05] <MeanEYE> person: no problem
[16:06] <theos> ah the applet doesnt work soz
[16:07] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, so the vlc pluggin will play the windows media player
[16:07] <theos> should i reinstall network manager?
[16:07] <vlaar> wzrdsg before reinstalling check if b43 shows op in additional drivers
[16:07] <ruan> theos: you could try reinstalling wicd
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: in ubuntu try to ping your routers internal IP (most home grade stuff uses <IP_ADDRESS>). You should also head into device manager and disable power management on the network devices as well as disable the ability for the network devices to wake up the PC
[16:07] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: i assume so yes
[16:07] <ruan> theos: do you have a router?
[16:07] <wzrdsg> how
[16:07] <theos> ruan, i have a modem
[16:08] <hiexpo> k
[16:08] <gumus> hi all
[16:08] <keithclark> I am trying to share a printer over my local network and am having issues.  I have made it shareable on the host machine, but when I try to print from a remote machine I get a Authentication window and I cannot seem to be able to get past that point.
[16:08] <MeanEYE> gumus: :D hi... do ask :D
[16:08] <theos> can it be the isp side problem too?
[16:09] <vlaar> wzrdsg after uninstalling check if b43 is properly deleted by looking at /system/administration/additional drivers
[16:09] <MeanEYE> keithclark: my guess is to enable guest printing
[16:09] <gumus> meanEYE: :D ok. question is coming... How can I remove the embedded subtitle in Mplayer?
[16:09] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Do you have any recommendations on what to do afterwards?
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: run:   sudo smbpasswd -a $USER     use the same password as the login password and you can now authenticate as the user (obviously tell the OS to remember it)
[16:09] <gumus> i am setting a different subtitle but the first one still appears,
[16:10] <MeanEYE> gumus: if it's embeded in video, you can't...
[16:10] <vlaar> wsrdsg if it is additional drivers will ask you to install b43
[16:10] <theos> :)
[16:10] <wzrdsg> I have two broadcom drivers available
[16:10] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, on which machine?
[16:10] <gumus> MeanEYE: well , i don't have any idea whether it's embedded or not , but it has a text file in the same folder
[16:11] <MeanEYE> gumus: try moving that text file and then playing a video
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: run:  sudo lshw -C network > ~/Desktop/data.txt    copy the file to your NTFS partition (as windows is too limited and cannot read or write ext4) and pastebin the text and give us the link
[16:11] <MeanEYE> gumus: what's the extension of video file?
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: on the print server side
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: this will make an account you can authenticate as
[16:12] <gumus> MeanEye: yes i did it. but subtitle is still there, so there's nothing much to do i guess?
[16:12] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Does it matter if I run this from the LiveCD?  I am able to connect to the wireless, but unable to browse there as well.
[16:12] <theos> thanks all, i should reconnect to the internet
[16:12] <lhr> how to use the BT?
[16:12] <ruan> lhr: bittorrent applications?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> lhr: what is BT?
[16:13] <Abhijit> !backtrack | lhr
[16:13] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, nope, still not printing.  Who would have thought such a simple thing as printer sharing can be so difficult?
[16:13] <lhr> yes
[16:13] <hiexpo> !backtrack-linux
[16:13] <MeanEYE> gumus: sorry nope... one suggestion is to make subtitles have black border so the real ones are easier to read, but other than that... nothing really
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> lhr: WHICH?
[16:13] <ruan> lhr: backtrack or bittorrent?
[16:13] <vlaar> wzrdsg in explanation of b43 driver. bcm4312 is probably named as a supported card
[16:13] <MeanEYE> ActionParsnip: bluetooth? :D
[16:13] <gumus> MeanEYE : ehehe neat trick :D
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> lhr: you were given 3 options. Yes is not an intelligent reply
[16:13] <MeanEYE> gumus: jsut an idea :P
[16:14] <gumus> MeanEye: ok then , thanks :D
[16:14] <MeanEYE> np
[16:14] <lhr> which  bittorrent applications is better or fast?
[16:14] <wzrdsg> one says bcm4312 the other bcm43112-

[16:16] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, yup, done that.  Bug report time?
[16:16] <Abhijit> lhr, try tranmission and deluge and dicide yourself which works best for you
[16:16] <ruan> lhr: torrent = bittorrent
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> lhr: earlier, how you replied was the eqquvlent of:  "Do you want coffee, tea or beer?"  your reply "yes"
[16:16] <ruan> lol
[16:16] <vlaar> wzrdsg you could use this for reference: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> lhr: torrent is the protocol, Ubuntu ships with transmission which is a fine client. Give it a go
[16:17] <wzrdsg> what was that command to see if it is enable
[16:18] <ruan> lhr: i'd suggest qbittorrent or transmission
[16:18] <lhr> I see
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> lhr: bittorrent is a torrent client and is available in Ubuntu also

[16:18] <Waatan> join JO
[16:18] <vlaar> wzrdsg you might need to restart after installing
[16:18] <ruan> Waatan: with # of course
[16:19] <Waatan> #join JO

[16:20] <cosmo> hmmmm have one site that uses flash video that has white flashing blocks when full screen, but it seems to be only that site, guess it's just bad coding on their site because every other flash site doesnt seem to have the same problem
[16:20] <vlaar> wzrdsg *if it stull isn't working i meant
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> cosmo: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  uname -a; lsb_release -a; echo; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash    and I can check you are ok

[16:22] <jotbe> hi all. i accidentally deleted my live-partitions with gparted and (i think) i was able to restore them using testdisk (lvm with luks/dm-crypt). problem is that i cannot activate the decrypted drives anymore using vgchange -ay. i don't have any further ideas how to solve the problem. can anyone help, please? :)
[16:23] <wzrdsg> vlaan: modprobe shows nothing
[16:24] <vlaar> wzrdsg that's normal modprobe is used to initialize the driver
[16:24] <MeanEYE> jotbe: did you write your ecryptfs keys?
[16:24] <wzrdsg> vlaar: ok lshw says network:1 disabled still
[16:25] <MeanEYE> jotbe: do you know them, to be more precise
[16:25] <bob__> I entered: sudo apt-get install nfs-kernal-server but got E: nfs-kernal-server not found
[16:26] <vlaar> wzrdsg what driver does lshw give the wireless network
[16:26] <MeanEYE> bob__: it's kernel instead of kernal :D
[16:26] <jotbe> MeanEye: i can decrypt the drive if you mean this. :)
[16:27] <bob__> MeanEye: thanks
[16:27] <MeanEYE> bob__: np :D
[16:27] <MeanEYE> jotbe: hm, what's the problem then
[16:27] <MeanEYE> ?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> bob__: use tab to complete package names ;)
[16:27] <Izsha> ActionParsnip: Back.
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: cool
[16:28] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Where do you want me to post the .txt?
[16:28] <Crash1hd> it seems the disk utility check seems to think it has a few bad sectors on all my drives? is there another way of checking for bad sectors?
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: http://pastebin.com
[16:29] <wzrdsg> I think i was reading this wrong network:0 description wireless interface does not say disabled network:1 say disabled
[16:29] <ikonia> Crash1hd: why do you want to check, a tool has already told you, you have a problem
[16:29] <middle> Hey, i have a wierd issue with my Ubuntu 10.10 PC. I installed a patch for a wireless driver and now my PC crashes: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1706111 Anyone have any ideas on how to remove the patch?
[16:30] <ikonia> middle: how did you apply the patch
[16:30] <Crash1hd> ikonia, well when it says that every drive on the system 4 physical drives have bad sectors I find that suspicious
[16:30] <Izsha> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/sZi31sMG
[16:30] <Crash1hd> ikonia, specially when a few of them are less then a year old
[16:30] <jotbe> MeanEye: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579819/
[16:30] <wzrdsg> I will have to finish this later I have some things to do
[16:30] <middle> ikonia: THis is the thread that explains teh patch, it is odd because it works on my laptop but not the PC, mayube it is an issue with the PC beign 64 bit?
[16:30] <wzrdsg> thanks for the hellp

[16:31] <tim167_> hello, how do I make it so that when my computer goes in stand-by, that I don't have to type my password each time to log back in?
[16:31] <vlaar> wzrdsg sure, np this might help -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:31] <Crash1hd> ikonia, thanks :)
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: ok so its an RTL8191SEvB     You can use that to find guides. I suggest you use a wired connection and get fully updated. Updates fix a lot
[16:31] <Duesentrieb_> any  idea? what does the error actually imply?
[16:31] <ikonia> middle: I'm not reading a thread, if I wanted to read threads, I'd help on the forum, just a summary of how you applied the patch
[16:31] <MeanEYE> is there a way to enable mouse scroll in irssi :D

[16:32] <gzor> hi guys. is it possible to set up a xephyr multiseat station on the new gdm (2.30.5)? I used this howto:
[16:32] <gzor> http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Multiseat_Configuration/Xephyr
[16:32] <middle> ikonia: I downloaded compat-wireless*.tar.bz2 and a patch for the issue i was having, then used make to install it
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: is the system a branded PC or a laptop?
[16:33] <ikonia> middle: ok, so to remove the patch you need to rebuild the module without the patch from a clean source
[16:33] <BajK> Does Kopete also support Webcam in Skype protocol or only for Yahoo?
[16:34] <davide> Hi, I am trying to change the boot order in grub2... I have edited /etc/default/grub and changed grub_default to the menu entry I want, saved the file and ran sudo update-grub.  This has not worked can anyone help?  I'm running 10.04
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> BajK: skype is a proprietary protocol so i very much doubt you will get webcam with skype
[16:34] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Toshiba laptop.  The odd thing is that I have installed Ubuntu before and it worked without issue.  I'm stumped that it doesn't work now.
[16:34] <Visuex> BajK,  Skype is finicky with sound and webcams
[16:34] <MeanEYE> BajK: am surprised it supports skype at all... since they are secretive about their protocol
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: what model laptop?
[16:34] <middle> ikonia: I wasn't using compat-wireless.. before so is there anyway to just remove all traces of it? including the patch?
[16:35] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Satellite L505D-GS6000
[16:35] <Visuex> Skype supports a public API but that is as close as you can get to their protocol
[16:35] <ikonia> middle: you just need to remove the module it loads
[16:35] <ThinkT510> !grub2 | davide
[16:35] <ledbettj> cd ~
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: have you got the Ubuntu fully updated using a wired connection?
[16:35] <ledbettj> oops :)
[16:36] <MeanEYE> ledbettj: /home :P
[16:36] <MeanEYE> ledbettj: want me to simulate terminal ?
[16:36] <ledbettj> haha thanks
[16:36] <BajK> MeanEYE: is there a linux skype client? officla one?
[16:36] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I tried fully updating it after a fresh install, and tried selecting the "download updates during install." option from the CD too.  Neither helped.  ><
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: so the OS is up to date now?
[16:37] <MeanEYE> BajK: yes, but it's old and ugly...
[16:37] <MeanEYE> BajK: they update once a year maybe
[16:37] <ThinkT510> !skype | BajK
[16:37] <middle> ikonia: So to remove the module jsut reinstall compat.. with out the patch?
[16:37] <davide> ThinkT510, but I haven't lost grub... I'm just trying to edit the boot order
[16:37] <middle> ikonia: But what if the compat is teh issue
[16:37] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510 master of factoids :D
[16:37] <MeanEYE> strikes back
[16:37] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I erased the Ubuntu installation with a fresh Win7 installation because I was unable to get online from the Ubuntu install to look for help.
[16:38] <BluesKaj> what's the command for identifying attacned devices like video monitors and speakers etc .lshw -C IDs the pcis that the devices are connected to but that's all.
[16:38] <ikonia> middle: what do you mean what ifd compat is the issue, you've just said it IS the issue, you applied a patch and it won't work, so you rebuild it without the patch
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: try:   sudo rmmod r8192se_pci && sleep 2 && sudo modprobe r8192se_pci
[16:38] <middle> ikonia: Rebuild what though?
[16:38] <BluesKaj> attacned=attached
[16:38] <Sna4x8> Is there any way to make the right mouse button paste instead of the middle one?
[16:38] <ThinkT510> davide: the second link helps you, the files you want to edit are under /etc/grub.d/ then issue a grub-update
[16:39] <ikonia> middle: compat
[16:39] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  What does that command do?  Or rather, would I see a result from using the LiveCD?
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: it removes the driver module for the wireless, waits, then reloads it
[16:39] <phet> hi
[16:39] <MeanEYE> phet: hi
[16:39] <phet> is xubuntu really faster than ubuntu?
[16:39] <middle> ikonia: What i was wondering is that i was previously not using compat, so i installed compat+a patch so rebuilding compat would just remove the patch, but compat itslef may be the issue...
[16:39] <davide> ThinkT510, ok let me check it out... thanks
[16:40] <MeanEYE> phet: should be, it's lighter
[16:40] <ThinkT510> davide: np
[16:40] <ikonia> middle: a.) why did you install compat from source when it's in the ubuntu repos b.) why did you install it for no reason c.) I've told you how to remove it
[16:40] <JaymesK> Hey. I'm having trouble trying to startup an Ubuntu live USB stick. It seems to drop me to a busybox system.
[16:40] <Lint01> phet, not exactly, linux is slow not because of DA
[16:40] <bob__> MeanEYE: it worked fine when I spelled kernel correctly
[16:40] <MeanEYE> Lint01: linux is slow?
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> phet: its not much lighter these days. Lubuntu is much lighter :)
[16:40] <MeanEYE> bob__: :D ya I know...
[16:41] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I'll be back in a few again.
[16:41] <Jasonn> JaymesK: any reason you want to go to the live CD, other than the reason of trying Ubuntu (live CD doesnt have full potential of ubuntu)???
[16:41] <JaymesK> Jasonn: Instaling it.
[16:41] <Neo_> hi all
[16:42] <Jasonn> JaymesK: does your computer have a cd drive?
[16:42] <JaymesK> Jasonn: It doesn't. I'm using a USB drive.
[16:43] <Jasonn> JaymesK: Try downloading the "Alternative CD" Its made for people who have issues such as this
[16:43] <Jasonn> !alternative | JaymesK
[16:43] <middle> ikonia: I was following a guide, that complied from source... im still not clear on how i remove the packge :S
[16:44] <ikonia> middle: do you know what compat actually builds ?
[16:44] <ikonia> middle: and a.) why did you install compat b.) what where you using before hand c.) why did you install it from source when it's in the ubuntu repos
[16:44] <phet> ActionParsnip: is Lubuntu easy to install?
[16:45] <Jasonn> phet: the same as Ubuntu, just its not supported by cannonical
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> phet: it has less of the stuff ubuntu has but its super slick. Its as easy to install as the others though
[16:45] <phet> why?
[16:45] <middle> ikonia: just had an issue with some software, and someone had posted a solution to fix the issue, it worked on my laptop, so i tried it on my PC as well, i was just following a guide.
[16:45] <phet> I need a light linux because I am virtualizing it :/
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> phet: its been requested and is soooo close :(
[16:45] <phet> maybe I will try lubuntu
[16:45] <Jasonn> phet: Its made by other people,
[16:45] <phet> is lubuntu easy to use?
[16:46] <Jasonn> phet: If you want a more-supported linux distro, try Xubuntu
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> phet: install minimal ISO then install the lxde package and you will have a super light OS which is fully supported
[16:46] <ikonia> middle: then you should (in future) try to understand what you're doing before doing it, b.) check the ubuntu repos for software beforing installing from source c.) not blindly install things
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> Jasonn: you can get an LXDE based ubuntu suported here using minimal iso and installing lxde ;)
[16:47] <dagnachewa> hi all
[16:47] <Swannie> Hi guys, I want to install mod_wsgi (sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi) but I wanted to install Python3, which I do not need, nor want - any ideas?
[16:47] <phet> sorry what is LXDE?
[16:47] <dagnachewa> anyone here knows amharic ?
[16:47] <ruan> !lxde
[16:47] <Jasonn> ActionParsnip: Hmm, true that, but since he is asking how hard something is to install, im guessing he has little to no linux knowledge
[16:47] <sven_oostenbrink> apt-get install chromium-browser gives me http://pastebin.com/UDtGRRC1   Any know current problem with the ubuntu repository servers??
[16:47] <middle> ikonia: I have learnt my lesson! The only reason i got confused here is that it worked perfectly on my laptop first... anyways lesson learnt, How does one remove the package though??
[16:47] <dagnachewa> anyone here ethiopian origin ?
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> Jasonn: true
[16:48] <MeanEYE> Swannie: let me check if py3 is required
[16:48] <ruan> !info lxcd
[16:48] <ruan> !info lxde
[16:48] <ikonia> middle: the package installas a module, remove the module
[16:48] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: Try the Ubuntu Software Center
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> phet: its a desktop environment which uses a lot less resources than the default gnome which is used by ubuntu
[16:48] <phet> ActionParsnip: the one used by lubuntu?
[16:48] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: which is... where? you mean by browser?
[16:48] <middle> ikonia: How do i do that though?
[16:48] <ikonia> middle: just remover it
[16:48] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: what distro are you using?
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> phet: yes Lubuntu uses lxde by default, ubuntu uses gnome (not light) and KUbuntu uses KDE (not light)
[16:49] <davide> ThinkT510, you know it's as if when I make the changes and then run sudo update-grub it does not apply them.  when running that command it successfully updates /boot/grub/menu.lst.  But isn't that file inherent to grub legacy?
[16:49] <ikonia> middle: "remove" it, sorry
[16:49] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: Ubuntu 10.10 (Mexico, spansih version)
[16:49] <MeanEYE> Swannie: libpython3.1 is required for instalation so you can't avoid it...
[16:49] <middle> ikonia: What so just delete the files that i complied from? or do i need to try to find where the module was installed?
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> phet: in Linux you get choice, in Windows you get the desktop with zero choice
[16:50] <phet> ActionParsnip: I am downloading lubuntu
[16:50] <ikonia> middle: no, the files you compiled from are nothing, when you do "make install" it installs the compiled object into a place you set when you built it, find it, remove it
[16:50] <phet> lets see
[16:50] <middle> ikonia: Thanks!
[16:50] <ThinkT510> davide: /boot/grub/grub.conf is used to configure grub2, but it's advised not to edit it directly
[16:51] <sven_oostenbrink> on another issue.. Anybody knows why Ubuntu 10.10 may suddenly, without any changes fail to mount *audio* cd's? data cd's and dvd's work fine, which makes it all the weirder.. Its a dual install, and windows will read audio CD's without problem..
[16:51] <Swannie> MeanEYE: OK, thanks, was wondering with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mod-wsgi/+bug/672901
[16:51] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: si vas al menu de applicasiones, vas a ver en el icono tersero de abajo que dice algo como ubuntu software center si entras alli, vas a encontrar bastanted cosas que son facileas de installar - si prefieres ayuda en espanol, tipea: /join #ubuntu-es
[16:51] <ThinkT510> davide: that's why you should edit the files under /etc/grub.d/ because those files are used to generate /boot/grub/grub.conf
[16:51] <cgcardona> I am wanting to set to “All” the value of the “AllowOverride” directive applying to the directory where a copy of Magento has been installed. The only problem is i don't know what file to do that from. I tired /etc/apache2/apache2.conf but it didn't seem to work. Any insight?
[16:51] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: no te devo ayudar en espanol aqui :S
[16:52] <davide> I think it's /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[16:52] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: you may just help me in english, please :)
[16:52] <davide> ThinkT510, I'm not sure how to edit them...
[16:52] <llutz_> sven_oostenbrink: usually you don't mount audio-cd, play them
[16:52] <davide> brb
[16:52] <DavideN900> thinkT510 this also davide, I'm restarting
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> Davide: you dont edit grub.cfg
[16:52] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: Well, you go to applications > Ubuntu Software Center > Search
[16:52] <MeanEYE> Swannie: py3 doesn't do anythign and it's not that big so I just stuck with it...
[16:53] <sven_oostenbrink> llutz_: I know , doh, but if linux cant mount the CD, it cant play it.. which is the very base of the problem
[16:53] <Swannie> MeanEYE: yeah, oh well. thanks :-)
[16:53] <MeanEYE> Swannie: np... :D
[16:53] <llutz_> sven_oostenbrink:it can, just use a player like vlc and play
[16:54] <middle> ikonia: I think i worked out that 'sudo make uninstall' from the source package directory, did it....
[16:54] <ikonia> middle: that doesn't always work, it depends on a lot of things, make sure it did work
[16:55] <middle> ikonia: Not sure how to test it though?
[16:55] <donnib> anyone using qbittorrent in ubuntu with label ?
[16:55] <ruan> donnib: label?
[16:55] <sven_oostenbrink> llutz_: no, because the CD can not be mounted, so it won't play.... As far as VLC is concerned, there is no CD...
[16:55] <donnib> i was used to use labels in uTorrent and give a label Mybooks\misc
[16:55] <ikonia> middle: do what I told you, read what it build, read where it installs it and check it's gone
[16:55] <middle> k thanks
[16:55] <Jasonn> !anyone | donnib
[16:56] <ruan> !info gmount-iso
[16:56] <ruan> !info gmount
[16:56] <donnib> ruan: yes labels, so you can give downloads labels so they get appended when download is done so you can sort stuff
[16:56] <ThinkT510> !info gmountiso | ruan
[16:56] <dagnachewa> please I am trying to contact someone from rwanda or ethiopia to spread linux , anyone here from ethiopia or rwanda ?
[16:56] <ruan> ah.. its gmount-iso in my menu >_>
[16:57] <ikonia> dagnachewa: that's nothing to do with this channel, we only do ubuntu support here
[16:57] <ruan> ubuntu ^technical support..
[16:57] <yuzodo> dagnachewa, check my PM
[16:57] <ilter> Hello. I've just installed ubuntu-netbook-10.10. Could you say how can i create a password for root?
[16:57] <MeanEYE> isn't that paradoxic? comming to linux channel and asking for people from somewhere in order to try and spread linux there?
[16:57] <ikonia> ilter: you dont need to
[16:57] <ikonia> !sudo | its_me_gb
[16:58] <ikonia> oops
[16:58] <Krabbe> ilon you cannot, you have to use sudp
[16:58] <ikonia> !sudo | ilter
[16:58] <Krabbe> *** sudo
[16:58] <ikonia> Krabbe: pardon ?
[16:58] <ruan> ilter: root is inaccessible by default
[16:58] <nit-wit> ilter, you did when you installed
[16:58] <ikonia> ah
[16:58] <ruan> ilter: sudo gives root privileges
[16:58] <Krabbe> ikonia o_O?
[16:58] <tim167_> hi, how can i play a video file with "video/x-gst-fourcc-m2v1 decoder" ???
[16:59] <ikonia> Krabbe: don't worry, I saw the mistake, I understand now
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> ilter: just use:   sudo -i
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> tim167_:  try vlc and mplayer with the proper codecs (w32codecs)
[16:59] <ilter> ikonia: Thank you, i jknow sudo. But unfortunately i can't chmod for a file by "sudo chmod ..".
[16:59] <Krabbe> ilter what file is it and where?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> ilter: yes, thats how you would chmod a file which isnt yours
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> i use sudo chmod ... all the time..
[16:59] <ikonia> ilter: what is the exact comment you are using
[16:59] <tim167_> thanks Dr_Willis, it's a Apple video though, i'll try...
[17:00] <Krabbe> tim167_ a MOV file? VLC should play it anyways.
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> tim167_:  if vlc cant play it...  its proberly got some nasty DRM on it
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> tim167_: try gnome-mplayer :)
[17:00] <influx6> tim167_: as far apple files are concern  vlc will play it all
[17:00] <AnubArack> How can I enable the multimedia keys on my keyboard ? (mostly with Rythmbox)
[17:00] <tim167_> influx6: vls doesnt play it
[17:00] <MeanEYE> AnubArack: there should be a plugin for that
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> AnubArack:  gnome keyboard settings dialog has options to map them to specific features.
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> AnubArack: if you run:  xev   do the keys create events?
[17:01] <influx6> tim167_: also ensure you have installed all codecs,go into synaptic  n search gor gstreamer plugins u will see those with multiverse,ugly,nice, install them all
[17:01] <davide> ThinkT510, ActionParsnip : so I don't simply have to edit /etc/default/grub as described in all the documentation?  I have to edit the files in /etc/grub.d/  ?
[17:01] <smw> Anyone know how to change max_user_watches permanently? (/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches)
[17:01] <davide> ls
[17:01] <davide> oops
[17:01] <pentester> anyone try natty yet?
[17:01] <tim167_> influx6: thanks, i'll try
[17:01] <ikonia> smw: you can put it in systcl
[17:01] <Jasonn> !natty | pentester
[17:01] <AnubArack> lol, all of a sudden they work :|
[17:01] <smw> ikonia, where is that?
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: /etc/sysctl.conf
[17:02] <smw> ikonia, ty
[17:02] <ThinkT510> davide: yes then issue update-grub
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> theres a lot of neat things in /etc/sysctl.conf
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: or you can do an init script that updates /proc for you
[17:02] <davide> ThinkT510, so what is the purpose of /etc/default/grub?
[17:02] <influx6> tim167_: welcome
[17:02] <smw> ikonia, so what would I add?
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> davide:  read up on the grub2 config/docs/wiki pages..
[17:02] <ThinkT510> davide: not sure, never used it myself
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: you need to do a little research for the parameter name
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> davide:  /etc/default/grub  settings that the grub.d scripts can read/use
[17:03] <smw> ikonia, ty
[17:03] <KoLo> siema
[17:03] <pozzi0> ok
[17:03] <davide> Dr_Willis, I see... I guess something is getting lost there however... because the settings are not being updated
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> davide:  they dont get used untill you run 'update-grub'
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> davide: you never edit grub.cfg as it is GENERATED so as soon as update-grub is ran, it will destroy the changes. You edit the scripts and config files which make the file and it will be applied and maintain your change.
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> davide:what are you tryinig to achieve?
[17:04] <davide> Dr_Willis, I've run update-grub several times... everytime I edit... but the updates don't take
[17:04] <davide> simply change the boot order
[17:04] <davide> I would like one OS to boot by default instead of the other
[17:04] <pozzi0> i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..
[17:04] <pozzi0> could someone help me?
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> davide: do you mean windows instead of Ubuntu?
[17:04] <davide> yes
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> davide:   check the grub2 docs/wiki theres a setting you uncomment. then you can seelct the default from a command line command.
[17:04] <pozzi0> i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..
[17:05] <tim167_> influx6: i installed all gstreamer plugs i can find (good/bad/ubgly..) still no luck
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> davide: then why didnt you say that?
[17:05] <davide> LOL cause I don't want you to think any less of me :P
[17:05] <MeanEYE> pozzi0: is that ubuntu related?
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> davide:  making windows first is even easier..  rename /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober to be a higher #.
[17:05] <pozzi0> yes it is
[17:05] <randomuser> i have a new desktop install with a sporadically flickering display.  I dont suspect the monitor because the 'flickering' is only from the desktop, console is ok, and fullscreen games are ok.  I don't see anything jumping out in /messages or /Xorg.0.log
[17:05] <pozzi0> im in ubuntu
[17:05] <marenostrum> Hello. Lucid here. Is there anybody who uses Firefox 4.0 RC (downloaded from Firefox sites) or Firefox (Minefield) 4.0b13pre from ppa? With those versions I can't view videos from Youtube site. Flash videos from some other sites are viewed. My flash player version: adobe-flashplugin <IP_ADDRESS>0lucid1 .
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> davide: no, we wouldn't think any less of you
[17:05] <KoLo>  /ame You can give me a link to the IRC
[17:05] <davide> haha
[17:05]  * KoLo You can give me a link to the IRC
[17:05] <MeanEYE> pozzi0: lol, ok, then form a question, use paste.ubuntu.com to give more detail what compiler says
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> davide: if you give details, we can help. If you withold details it makes things a tonne harder
[17:05] <ikonia> KoLo: you are in irc
[17:06] <pozzi0> iok
[17:06] <davide> I'm sorry it wasn't my intention
[17:06] <tjiggi_fo> davide, install StartupManager from Synaptic (it'll go to System >> Admin) and use that to set the order
[17:06] <davide> tjiggi_fo, I did that and set the order, and it still doesnt update
[17:06] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: i don't think we can support that here, because thats not a final release
[17:06]  * KoLo but I wanted to link to the IRC
[17:06] <ilter> ikonia:  The file is on my external hd.
[17:06] <ikonia> KoLo: you are IN irc now
[17:07] <davide> Dr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom
[17:07] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: perhaps you ran into a bug to report to mozilla or #ubuntu+1
[17:07] <ikonia> ilter: what is the exact command you are usingf
[17:07] <ikonia> using
[17:07] <mongy> davide, i'd just chnage the GRUB_DEFAULT=  in /etc/default/grub to whatever the os is
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> davide:  sudomv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/08_os-prober; sudo update-grub
[17:07] <Dr_Willis>  move the XX_os-prober to be a first #  /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> :)
[17:07] <davide> mongy, ya been trying that for hours now
[17:07] <gradio> how do i add an user to a group via terminal?
[17:07] <mongy> davide, so like, if windows is the 3rd one in the menu, it would be GRUB_DEFAULT=2
[17:07] <llutz_> gradio: sudo adduser user group
[17:07] <mongy> davide, then sudo update-grub
[17:07] <davide> mongy yup.. it just hasn't worked
[17:07] <davide> yup done that
[17:07] <ikonia> gradio: usermod
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> the  name to set 'GRUB_DEFAULT=' to - can be rather.. confuseing.
[17:07] <Iatagore> A question: Why does it seem that packages seem to be outdated on the repositories?
[17:07] <mongy> davide, odd, works for me
[17:07] <ilter> ikonia: Now,  i copied to my local hd then i can change it's permissions.
[17:07] <Iatagore> certain packages*
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> mongy: the default number doesn't respect new kernel installs
[17:07] <marenostrum> ThinkT510, I see; OK. Just asked to be sure if I need to deal with a bug report to somewhere.
[17:08] <gradio> llutz, the user already exists
[17:08] <ikonia> ilter: ok, I'm not going to help you any more as I've asked you 3 times for the exact command you are using and you have ignored it 3 times and come back with other information that I have no use for
[17:08] <llutz_> gradio: hopefully, else you can't add him to a group
[17:08] <davide> ActionParsnip, I don't have 30_os-prober
[17:08] <gradio> i think usermod will do the trick, thanks ikonia
[17:08] <davide> ActionParsnip, I have 10_os-prober
[17:09] <davide> just replace it with that?
[17:09] <llutz_> gradio: man adduser
[17:09] <ilter> ikonia: As i wrote before i'm using "sudo chmod 777 <file name>"
[17:09] <ThinkT510> davide: it's easier to do what Dr_Willis said regarding the grub_default
[17:09] <ikonia> ilter: you did not post that,
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  it has to be a lower # then the  10_linux one..
[17:10] <davide> oh
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  each one of those ##_scripts gerenates Part of the grub.cfg  in order...
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  logical eh? :)
[17:10] <davide> Dr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom
[17:10] <davide> so idk... what do I name it as it's already lower..
[17:10] <judget> Hi on Ubuntu 10.04 I tried to add a new user but when i try to login with that user  I get an error: Couls not Update ICEauthority
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> davide:  so rerun sudo update-grub and see what happens. it could be your OTHER tweaking messed somthing up
[17:11] <gawker> hello any one can help me with arpspoof?
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> Mine is 09_ and windows is first here.
[17:11] <davide> so far all I've tweaked is /etc/default/grub
[17:11] <iqpi> Dr_Willis: how have you added the user?
[17:11] <marenostrum> ThinkT510, Thanks #ubuntu+1 is a good idea, in order to be sure of the problem before reporing to mozilla. Thanks.
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> iqpi:  ive not added any users. :)
[17:11] <iqpi> usp sorry man xD
[17:11] <Iatagore> What do I do when I want the newest version of software when the version on the repos is outdated?
[17:11] <ilter> ikonia: Sorry, not completely. I posted  "sudo chmod .."."
[17:12] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: no worries, that's where firefox 4 is slated for release i think
[17:12] <iqpi> judget: how have you tried to add a new user'
[17:12] <judget> yes thius was the new uer that I just added
[17:12] <davide> when I run sudo update-grub I get Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> davide:  after you run update-grub, you can look at the grub.cfg and see what order they are in.
[17:12] <davide> what is that file
[17:12] <marenostrum> ThinkT510,  I got it. Thanks a lot.
[17:12] <Over-Life> Hey
[17:12] <judget> it looks like it did not make a Desktop folder either
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you ser it dident say /etc/default/grub ?
[17:13] <georgie_b> in .vimrc file "au FileType c set makeprg=gcc\ % " settings writes the output to a.out file .. how to get it to write to filename.op
[17:13] <georgie_b> ?
[17:14] <davide> Dr_Willis, when I run update-grub shouldn't it be looking for /etc/default/grub?
[17:15] <trism> georgie_b: it would probably be easier to build a script that strips off the .c extension and then compiles it, and then use that as makeprg
[17:15] <deft_n1x> hi all, how can i remove trademark images and strings from ubuntu packages?
[17:15] <ikonia> deft_n1x: you don't, they are there for a reason
[17:15] <georgie_b> @trism as in it can retrieve the file name without the extension using %:r but how to use the got filename to write the output into
[17:16] <trism> georgie_b: on it that case, just add -o %:r to the line
[17:17] <judget> sooo the original user is the only one I have on this system when i try to add a user i get that error regarding ther ICEauthority
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> davide:  i never see it say that when i udate-grub, let me rerun it again
[17:17] <ikonia> judget: how are you adding a user
[17:17] <judget> also there is no .IECauthority ion thae new users home folder
[17:17] <pozzi0> ok when i am in the compiler and i type g++ program1.cpp
[17:17] <pozzi0> it says he cannot find
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> !find g++
[17:17] <judget> usiong system administration users app
[17:17] <pozzi0> g++ file or directory
[17:17] <ikonia> pozzi0: have you installed g++
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> pozzi0:  you did install teh built-essential  package?
[17:18] <georgie_b> @trism how to put the file in the same directory as the c file?
[17:18] <[TK]D-Fender> judget: Silly question, but did you try wiping the folder and recreating the user?
[17:18] <pozzi0> compiler said me
[17:18] <judget> yes several times
[17:18] <oneliner> so i ve installed python 3.2 but python --version still reports as 2.6.6, what am i missing?
[17:18] <pozzi0> that he missed g++
[17:18] <pozzi0> and i made
[17:18] <pozzi0> apt-get install pentium-builder
[17:18] <davide> Dr_Willis, in the /boot/grub.cfg it says that those menu entries should be /etc/grub.d/10_linux, /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober.... but those titles don't match the actual files that are in grub.d
[17:18] <pozzi0> coz he said that it will be ok
[17:18] <pozzi0> with it
[17:19] <davide> Dr_Willis, I have 10_os-prober, 20_linux...
[17:19] <judget> in the past i thought when u made a new user the home directrory structure was created automatically including a Desktop folder and others as well
[17:19] <ThinkT510> oneliner: what does python3 --version tell you?
[17:19] <a931bw> Hello, could anyone explain me diffirence between Router and switch
[17:19] <panfist> is it possible to integrate with the file browser the ability to mount files that i've dumped from partitions using dd
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg  | grep BEGIN
[17:19] <ikonia> panfist: no
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> davide:  they match in mine.. see that cat command above to show their order
[17:19] <trism> georgie_b: if %:r doesn't expand to the full path, I don't know, maybe ask in #vim
[17:19] <judget> in this system it makes the home fiolder and only  the following .profile .bashrc .bash_logout
[17:20] <Jasonn> a931bw: Router splits the connection between a number of computers, while a switch determines one computer to send the connection to
[17:20] <oneliner> ThinkT510: not installed, which is not the case, maybe am not registering the install properlly?
[17:20] <Rabbitbunny> Jasonn: You got that backwards.
[17:20] <Abhijit> a931bw, ##hardware and try wikipedia and google
[17:20] <influx6> am sorry if i was away
[17:20] <llutz_> a931bw: different layers
[17:20] <davide> Dr_Willis, nope, they don't match in mine
[17:20] <judget> permission on the new user all seem correct
[17:20] <ThinkT510> oneliner: how did you install 3.2?
[17:20] <influx6> did anyone post any questions to my nick
[17:20] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you really managed to goof somthing up then it seems
[17:20] <ikonia> influx6: no
[17:20] <davide> :(
[17:21] <Jasonn> Rabbitbunny: Whoops :S
[17:21] <judget> all files and home folder is owned by that user and group[
[17:21] <influx6> ikonia: cool thansk
[17:21] <influx6> thanks*
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, I think it must have been goofed from the beginning
[17:21] <pozzi0> ok, so I have installed g++with "apt.get install pentium-builder". Now, still g++ doesnt work. g++ cannot find such file or directory
[17:21] <oneliner> ThinkT510: followed these , correcting url for it was a rc2 which is not valid anymore http://pythonicway.blogspot.com/2011/02/install-python-32-on-linux-ubuntu.html
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, that's probably why nothing is updating after I make changes
[17:21] <georgie_b> @trism i tried #vim ,but it says cannot talk to channel , nd individual users dont respond,.. is there any way to get accepted into the channel like registering or something?
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> davide:  No idea. on clean installs - i just change that # and  poof windows is first.
[17:21] <saintbasil> Question: There is something wrong with my partitions because when I connect any external HDD to my computer, either a walkman or a small storage drive, I get a mount error about a bad ssdb superblock (sdb being the connected device). The devices work fine on other ubuntu computers. What is wrong with mine?
[17:21] <oneliner> repo is at 3.1, i needed 3.2
[17:21] <ikonia> pozzi0: that does not install g++
[17:21] <ikonia> pozzi0: install the package "build-essential"
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, can I just re-install grub?
[17:22] <pozzi0> so atc-get install build-essential?
[17:22] <pozzi0> apt*
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> georgie_b:  you probelry need a registered nick.
[17:22] <trism> !register | georgie_b
[17:22] <pozzi0> ikonia apt-get install build-essential?
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' frst perhaps.. then try apt-get reinstall grub-pc perhaps.
[17:22] <davide> or maybe I just need to rename the files
[17:23] <erkan^> !android
[17:23] <dannyd> hi
[17:23] <davide> Dr_Willis, /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: grub-pc is broken or not fully installed
[17:23] <ThinkT510> oneliner: sorry i can't help, little to no experience with python
[17:23] <pozzi0> ok ikona it says me its impossibile to open /var/lib/dpkg/log
[17:24] <dannyd> i installed #! creating 4 partitions during install /home /boot and / and swap....when i turn on the computer, only when i select the harddisk from the boot menu, it loads grub and subsequently the os
[17:24] <dannyd> otherwise it gets stuck at the line just b4 it says "loading grub"
[17:24] <davide> argh I have to go eat with the wife.  I'll be back Dr_Willis thanks for your help so far.... I think next I'll look for documentation on how to completely re-install grub
[17:25] <georgie_b> @trism tried /register | georgie_b ,but it says That command doesn't work on this protocol.
[17:26] <pozzi0> can someone help me?

[17:32] <pozzi> pastebinit?

[17:36] <mechanist> if I create three ntfs partitions inside an extended partition with GpartEd, those NTFS partitions are seen by Windows?
[17:37] <linuxNewb> as far as developing goes, is it easiest if I just set up /var/www as a samba share?
[17:37] <llutz_> mechanist: should be
[17:37] <Ampelbein> grub_pro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub could work

[17:51] <thofke> I thought I'd give 11.04 a try and installed it on a USB-stick, but when I try the unity interface it just shows the desktop-background without menu etc... Compiz et al. is not crashing. Why can't I use unity? (On a side not: I tried to turn on compiz recently on 10.10 but it didn't function, I did not mind, but I know it worked on 9.10, I believe)
[17:51] <ThinkT510> !11.04 | thofke
[17:51] <_joey> needlez: similar to firefox functionality in which you can open numerous tabs each for a seperate document
[17:51] <Abhijit> pozzi, right
[17:51] <needlez> dagni: type top and show me what the output is in pastie.org post the pastie.org link here only, and maybe i can see if something is eating up ram causeing the slow down
[17:52] <pozzi> Abhijit, it says
[17:52] <pozzi> a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> cannot find
[17:52] <Abhijit> pozzi, not a.out its ./a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> yes
[17:52] <needlez> _joey: I believe foxit reader can do that, you have to install it from the website though
[17:52] <slatan> joey; try foxit reader
[17:52] <pozzi> -/a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> but it says me
[17:52] <Abhijit> its not dash
[17:52] <Abhijit> its dot
[17:52] <yeats> !enter | pozzi
[17:52] <pozzi> a.out cannot find such namee or directory
[17:53] <_joey> needlez slatan foxit reader does it on MS Windows version, but not on that of Linux distro

[17:53] <needlez> _joey: oh ok,

 es un clon con un disco duro de 512 GB y 512 de RAM
 entonces no habrá problemas

 bueno, los efectos dependen unicamente de la grafica

[17:55] <Dr_Willis> prime:  check the video chipset and wireless chipset for any specific laptop. Other then those 2. Most everything else should work. However 'brand new' laptops that juat came out recently - will also be the  most lilely to have issues. watch for ones the have been out for a few months.

[17:56] <yeats> pozzi: just right click on your clock/calendar applet and select Preferences, then Time Settings
[17:56] <needlez> pozzi: you should be able to click the month,date,time thing and bring down a pull down go to edit and modify from there. That should be easy way
[17:57] <erUSUL> pmitros: afaik pulseaudio can do that... ask in #pulseaudio
[17:57] <erUSUL> stef: you can just do it
[17:57] <pozzi> yes it was easy..ubuntu make me feel like a retard

[18:01] <stef> erUSUL: and ubuntu will boot normal? sorry for all the questions, but i just saw on google that windows had a lot of problems when chaning it.
[18:01] <axscode>  Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/device:3b/LNXVIDEO:02/input/input5 <-- i have this, meaning i dont have the drivers installed?
[18:01] <vanguard> Ampelbein: thx
[18:02] <erUSUL> stef: yes; if you choose the correct disk in the bios boot order it will boot normally and all should work thnaks to using uuids
[18:02] <needlez> ThinkT510: that has nothing to do with sound for WINE... its not an issue with setting up the game, its been running fine for a few weeks. Now all a sudden its sound is gone something with ALSA i think in WINE conf. Need to know what I can modify to return sound. Since it sometimes works and other times just no sound at all.
[18:02] <khrm> I have successfully installed ubuntu again on my external hdd but after grub2 it can't boot. But when I go to grub2 commandline and give options of linux and initrd. It successfully boots. Facing no problem. But this method is quite cumbersome in front of any newbie in front of whom i want to demonstrate
[18:02] <ThinkT510> !alsa | needlez
[18:03] <stef> erUSUL: Thanks for all the information!
[18:03] <yeats> linuxNewb: what are you trying to do?
[18:03] <[TK]D-Fender> erUSUL: If he was using BIOS MB based rade that'd be FakeRAID, no?  Was there an issue of "breaking" that by changing the mode?
[18:04] <linuxNewb> yeats : restart samba, i made changes to the .conf file to add a share
[18:04] <needlez> ThinkT510: not that either. It has to do with WINE configuration and how its sound is setup to interact with Alsa or Pulse-audio not which to have set to.
[18:04] <[TK]D-Fender> erUSUL: thought I'd seen something about the controller formatting things funny
[18:04] <grub_pro> We have ubuntu installed windows. Now on switching to ubuntu I am redirected to grub. In the grub I am unable to find my kernel version. When I tried "linux /boot/vm.." it is not auto completing my version
[18:04] <mystro_> hallo
[18:04] <yeats> linuxNewb: just do 'sudo service samba restart'
[18:04] <erUSUL> [TK]D-Fender: stef said that he has no raid defined
[18:05] <BajK> what's the point of that "download updates on install" in kubuntu installer?
[18:05] <BajK> after restart I do apt-gte3 update && apt-get upgrade and still I get like 300 packages to be updated-.-
[18:05] <ThinkT510> needlez: beyond the sound tab in winecfg i have little knowledge of how to help sorry
[18:05] <linuxNewb> yeats : "samba: unrecognized servce"
[18:05] <yeats> linuxNewb: hmmm
[18:05] <needlez> kk
[18:05] <mystro_> 3oooo8 ya nas hoooy
[18:05] <stef> [TK]D-Fender: I only have a softraid with mdadm. i have no hardraid configured.

[18:11]  * ActionParsnip thinks encryptfs really isnt worth it
[18:12] <CAPP> encryptfs really isnt worth it?
[18:12] <CAPP> why?
[18:12] <adam__> @actionparsnip what about cryptsetup?
[18:13] <adam__> i personally use cryptsetup, its easy
[18:13] <CAPP> what can you do with cryptsetup?
[18:14] <CAPP> I want to encrypt my home folder without lossing what is in there right now
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> adam__: considering the expertise Ubuntu is aimed at, if a user gets issues and needs to recover data as many users still fail to havebackups it causes issues, especially when the community starts needing to tell them how to decrypt stuff, its just a massive headache
[18:14] <Swannie> Hello - how do I easily change the Apache user from root to something like www?
[18:16] <Ampelbein> douglarret: the command should finish pretty fast actually
[18:16] <adam__> @ActionParsnip correct, but if a user is asking for encryption, decryption methods its because they want to get their hands dirty. And they should no the consequences
[18:16] <yeats> Swannie: the apache user is www-data by default and should be set in the /etc/apache2/envvars file
[18:16] <Ampelbein> douglarret: you can check '/var/log/jockey.log'
[18:17] <Abhijit> bye gn

[18:19] <ActionParsnip> pozzi: uploading or downloading?
[18:19] <CAPP> adam: I was reading about ecryptfs, do you know if I can encrypt my home directory without loosing the information I have in there? (and yes I want to get my hands dirty hehe)
[18:19] <pozzi> downloading
[18:19] <pozzi> maybe
[18:19] <pozzi> its just bad luck
[18:19] <pozzi> dunno
[18:19] <CAPP> In windows I used to use truecrypt (system encryption) ...
[18:19] <Ampelbein> !encryption | CAPP
[18:20] <pozzi> lol it works it was just bad luck
[18:20] <pere_> saidi
[18:20] <yuzodo> lol
[18:21] <yeats> Swannie: root starts apache, but the "run user" is www-data
[18:21] <Swannie> yeats: OK, thanks

[18:27] <Tiuz> hi
[18:28] <MnCC> newbie question: what has x-server todo with gnome ? do i need it or can i uninstall it ?
[18:28] <khrm> x-server is the heart of gui.
[18:28] <IR7738>    http://www.mediafire.com/?fbh7c71zfc4dv5f Grotesk banda emergente chilena apoyemos http://www.grotesk.tk
[18:28] <MnCC> gnome is sort of an overlay ?
[18:29] <ThinkT510> MnCC: gnome is the desktop environment
[18:29] <jamielaw> Hi, rfkill is detecting my wireless on/off button as a hard block preventing my wireless connection from working.  Does anyone know how to prevent this?
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: the x server is a combination of mouse, keyboard, video hardware and monitor
[18:29] <ThinkT510> !desktop | MnCC
[18:30] <MnCC> ahh
[18:30] <grendal_prime> hey guys...i need to bag up files on arival into 30 meg zip files.
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: yes gnome runs on the x server, then the window manager on top of that
[18:31] <grendal_prime> anyone know of a good script concocktion for that?
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: using tar you can specify 30Mb sizes
[18:31] <MnCC> ok, i just removed some x-server packages that i thought irrelevant, like screensavers and a bunch of drivers .. just need to be sure
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: screensavers wont affect much
[18:32] <jamielaw> Is there any way to disable rfkill completely or prevent it from checking wifi?
[18:32] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, im listening...how would you suggest triggering it?
[18:32] <grendal_prime> like these things are comming in really fast
[18:32] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Hey, I'm finally back.  I took the time to install 10.10 back on my machine and update it all the way.  I noticed that it would download for 60 seconds, stop for 60, and try again for 60.  But no matter what I did, my web browser wouldn't load.  Any other ideas?
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: you can cron a task if you wish and it will run on a schedule
[18:32] <grendal_prime> at least 300 per sec..
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: when the link drops, run:   dmesg | tail    and it should give clues
[18:33] <CAPP> Do you now where I could find information for secure sending of emails (encrypted emails) inside an organization....but with the possibility of recovering those emails with a ediscovery solution (EnCase Enterprise)?
[18:33] <MnCC> im cleaning up packages .. but some are really stringed together with dependencies .. its driving me nuts
[18:34] <ThinkT510> MnCC: are you trying to save disk space?
[18:34] <khrm> CAPP i think you need openpgp
[18:34] <MnCC> no im trying to understand how things work, what i need and dont need .. less is more
[18:35] <Vilemaxim> Should I be worried that it's taking over an hour and a half to create a 2tb drive with ext4 with the installer?
[18:35] <IdleOne> How do I check what depends a package has?
[18:35] <ThinkT510> MnCC: might interest you to try out the mini-iso as a base to start from then install what you need ontop
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> Vilemaxim: how does the device connect to the system?
[18:36] <ThinkT510> !mini | MnCC
[18:36] <Vilemaxim> ActionParsnip, 3ware (raid 5, 3 - 1TB drives)
[18:36] <Vilemaxim> sata
[18:36] <MnCC> yeah, that would be great
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Vilemaxim: well the raid data needs setting up, raid5 isn't simple.
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: its what I use 9 times out of 10 :)
[18:37] <Note-book> For some reason, my screen flickers at times and sometimes the screen goes dim and then bright by it's self or it keeps on flickering. I'm on 10.10.
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: is the system a branded PC or laptop?
[18:37] <Note-book>  ActionParsnip: It's a HP DV6000.
[18:37] <MnCC> i got my new thinkpad t412 and basicly i just wanna run virtualbox
[18:38] <khrm> CAPP After reading about encase. i think you can encrypt using openpgp. But to decrypt everyone should give their keys and passphrase to appropriate managing authority.
[18:38] <ThinkT510> MnCC: good laptop choice (i'm biased)
[18:38] <vanguard> how can I find how how a .pk3 file was packed? I want to change some files in it and need to repack it in the same way it is now
[18:38] <khrm> In that only managing authority have keys of all and decrypt at will message of anyone.
[18:39] <MnCC> i thought you might ;)
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: what does: lsb_release -d; lspci | grep -i vga       output?

[18:39] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, is there any way to use zip compression so that the tared files have a typical zip extention(i just dont know what the customer would use to unzip them)
[18:40] <MnCC> its weird though, i step over from windows like 3 weeks ago.. and i like this so much better its ridiculous
[18:40] <katsrc> what user groups do apache and httpd belong to?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: you can create the tar files then gzip them or zip them as you desire
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: and what does:   lsb_release -d    output?
[18:40] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Did you want the dmesg print out?
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: sure, use a pastebin

[18:41] <MnCC> and im really looking forward to 11.x in april
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: ok did you install the nvidia driver ok?
[18:41] <yeats> elijah: how did you install picasa?
[18:41] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  http://pastebin.com/7AQ8gmL9
[18:42] <MnCC> seems that new linux kernel with the tty grouping makes your system much faster
[18:42] <anirudhr> elijah: "dpkg -l | grep picasa"
[18:42] <ThinkT510> MnCC: me too, i use xubuntu so i won't be using unity, love xfce
[18:42] <elijah> yeats: I forget
[18:42] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, Noop this is a fresh install but even on my last install WITH the driver, same :(
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: http://linux.aldeby.org/fix-for-openoffice-writer-bad-screen-redraw-refresh.html     you will need this workaround, due to hardware
[18:42] <yeats> elijah: if you downloaded the deb, you might need to do it with 'sudo dpkg -r picasa'
[18:42] <anirudhr> elijah: Check the package name with "dpkg -l | grep picasa"
[18:42] <elijah> anirudhr: That ran succesfully, but no output
[18:43] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, I'm following the link as we speak.
[18:43] <yeats> elijah: then you didn't install it via APT/dpkg or that would've shown something
[18:43] <anirudhr> elijah: I know this may sound obvious, sorry, but are you sure it is still installed? Are you able to run it?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: ok the last 2 lines look interesting, see what they mean
[18:44] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, I don't have WORKAROUNDS plugin under UTILITY

[18:45] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Do you have any link on hand that shows how to disable ipv6?
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: in ccsm ?
[18:45] <elijah> anirudhr: I saw in about > help that it was picasa for linux, I will double check though
[18:45] <MnCC> brb .. cooking ..
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: in /etc/default/grub    change:   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"   to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash ipv6.disable=1"
[18:45] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, yes
[18:45] <yeats> elijah: what does 'locate picasa' tell you?
[18:46] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, i see how to split tared files...is that what you have to do?
[18:46] <Doorgh0st> excuse me
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: its part of the command. You can take a huge lump of data and split it into chunks of the size you want
[18:46] <Pudabudigada> Hello, in exaile all my tracks are listed at least twice, can I fix this?
[18:46] <anirudhr> elijah: Try editing your menu entry for it and seeing what the command name is. Also try "dpkg -l | grep -i picasa", case-insensitive. :)
[18:47] <elijah> yeats: a whole bunch of stuff
[18:47] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Is there possibly a terminal command that will change it?  I'm horrible navigating through the file system.
[18:47] <grendal_prime> let me tell you what i want to do you may know of something that does it...i got a tone of files landing on an cifs server i want to take those files and start putting them into ziped up packages that are right arround 30 megs a piece.
[18:47] <Omie> Hi ! I need some urgent help with chntpw. rather some confirmation
[18:47] <grendal_prime> the files are really small...but there are just tones of them
[18:47] <elijah> anirudhr: I am not sure how to edit menu entry, a right click doesn't give me anything, I am on Kubuntu
[18:47] <LadyNikon> Omie: ask your question and someone will be with you
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: run:  gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub    then changin it is like changing text in a text file, which is all it is (It's not hard in any way, don't fear your OS)
[18:48] <anirudhr> elijah: What about grep -i? Did you try that?
[18:48] <Doorgh0st> i have a question I have installed ubuntu on my desktop but ubuntu won't recognize my sound card  I have tried muliple solutions from google but nothing works
[18:48] <Omie> okay. I followed the process chntpw - u username SAM shows up menu. I press 1 to clear or 2 to change password and then Y to save. but there is no effect in windows 7
[18:49] <elijah> anirudhr: yeah, ran with no errors or output
[18:49] <Omie> do I need to do anything more ? saving these etc ?
[18:50] <elijah> I just had it running, now it won't launch anymore to verify it is the linux version

[18:57] <MeanEYE> tuesday3: this is ubuntu support!
[18:57] <influx6> be03099205: and then dualboot with windows or ubuntu,your choice but unless thruough vm theres no way of using mac apps on ubuntu unless u wanna port one urself
[18:57] <ThinkT510> influx6: we don't encourage that behaviour here
can it be done?i mean i have tried it....a hackintosh...but in vain

[18:59] <influx6> sudipta: since it has being disencourage here all i can say is yes its possible
[18:59] <MeanEYE> be03099205: Dijkstra said: If debugging is process of removing bugs, programming must be putting them in. Humans make mistakes!
[18:59] <influx6> sudipta: but u gona have to google it to dinf out more
[18:59] <tuesday3> the only problem is when trying to do a /nick that the error i keep getting on these two channels
[18:59] <influx6> sudipta: iboot is ur keyword thats all i can say
okkk :=D...i dont mean to encourage it  either
[19:00] <khrm> tuesday3 go to #freenode
[19:00] <be03099205> yes I know that but why do they not use the lucid code to make new systems?
[19:00] <influx6> sudipta: or if u wanna knw more just pop me a message on IM trinoxf on gmail
[19:01] <grendal_prime> ya ActionParsnip i dont think tar would work, i would have to have all the files together again to untar it(thats how it looks anyway) These guys need to open each of these up seperately.
[19:01] <be03099205> Lucid lynx is working great
what the mail id?
[19:01] <Stef> Hi when i try to mount my softraid1 it says: error mounting: wrong fs type, option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. how can i solve this?
[19:01] <be03099205> I hope the next LTS is working good if not I will not upgrade
[19:02] <influx6> sudipta<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[19:02] <MeanEYE> be03099205: all lts versions work good... LTS is always focused on stability
i use 10.10 ....and it works great
[19:02] <be03099205> i hope that
[19:02] <be03099205> why do it works for you and not for me?
[19:02] <twistedstorm> Hello i have visited the formuhelp with my wlan issue and i can not get anywhere with it been trying for 2 days now
[19:02] <influx6> be03099205: trust me its worth the upgrade
[19:03] <twistedstorm> using ubuntu 10.10 not very knowledgeable with linux
[19:03] <be03099205> I will upgrade to 11.04 when it will be released, I think they will fix that bug until that
[19:03] <MeanEYE> twistedstorm: what's the problem?
[19:03] <influx6> be03099205: upgrade to 10.10 first or download the desktop iso,burn it n run it in live session to see if it works well before upgrading
[19:04] <twistedstorm> I downloaded the realtek linux drivers ran the lshw -c network command
[19:04] <be03099205> I have a original ubuntu 10.10 cd
[19:04] <twistedstorm> it shows the 2004 driver as installed i have the new 2008 or 10 driver
[19:04] <twistedstorm> the wireless is very unstable cuts every 2 mins
[19:05] <khrm> be03099205 When did 10.10 hangs?
[19:05] <be03099205> at login
[19:05] <influx6> be03099205: then boot into the cd and use its live session to see if it works
[19:05] <Jacruth> ey guys, when I try to run firefox it says that it's already opened, how could I force it to open?
[19:05] <be03099205> couldn't login and I waiting 30 min, nothing happens
[19:05] <be03099205> that's the reason I'm using 10.04
[19:06] <cjae> Hi, what do I have to do to make my /home partition "not busy" to be able to shrink it?
[19:06] <IdleOne> cjae: boot with a live cd and then run gparted, unmount /home and resize
[19:06] <khrm> be03099205 Did you booted successfully from cd?
[19:06] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: you want to kill it from the terminal first if it's unresponsive then launch it
[19:06] <be03099205> yes install was succesfull but not the first login
[19:07] <influx6> be03099205: u sure you set up your login details properly or hope capslock wasnt on while setting up your password and if you are talking bout the live system,the password is the same as the username which is usually "ubuntu"
[19:07] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, there is not any firefox-bin proccess
[19:07] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: type "ps aux" to see if it's running
[19:07] <Jacruth> I did "ps aux | grep firefox"
[19:07] <Jacruth> or even grep mozilla
[19:07] <Jacruth> or something like that
[19:07] <be03099205> ok, can I upgrade from 10.04 from the network now?
[19:07] <Jacruth> and there is nothing related to it
[19:07] <be03099205> would that work
[19:07] <MeanEYE> be03099205: yes
[19:07] <be03099205> ?
[19:08] <be03099205> ok! how do I upgrade
[19:08] <twistedstorm> meaneye do you have any ideas?
[19:08] <influx6> cjae: you cant shrink a partition while using it,u best boot into a live system through a cd or use one of the cd partiton managers out there to do the shrinking ,would advice you to use the ubuntu dvd/cd live session and use dparted or disk utility
[19:08] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: hmm, thats odd
[19:08] <influx6> be03099205: yes you can upgrade
[19:08] <khrm> be03099205 Well first did you try it using cd?
[19:08] <cjae> IdleOne: is that the only way, is it cause when I stop kdm and sudo su and move off the /home for present working directory
[19:08] <influx6> be03099205:  go into terminal type  sudo update-maanger -d
[19:08] <cjae> IdleOne: and umount still won't work
[19:08] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: how did it crash?
[19:09] <IdleOne> cjae: unmount won't work because /home is currently in use
[19:09] <MeanEYE> be03099205: System -> Administration -> Update Manager -> Settings -> Release upgrade set to Normal releases... close and then check for updates you should see upgrade to 10.10
[19:09] <influx6> be03099205: though on normal bases it should show an upgrade button on top of your update-manager
[19:09] <MeanEYE> twistedstorm: sorry, no clue about that :/ maybe someone else
[19:09] <cjae> IdleOne: by what?
[19:09] <IdleOne> cjae: this is why I said use a live cd
[19:09] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it didn't crash, I closed it, but I'm using Ubuntu from a pendrive
[19:10] <MarconM> who know app htop
[19:10] <MarconM> ?
[19:10] <MeanEYE> !htop
[19:10] <Stef> Hi when i try to mount my softraid1 it says: error mounting: wrong fs type, option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. how can i solve this?
[19:10] <cjae> IdleOne: right I was just wondering why it would still be busy
[19:10] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: is that live or persistant install to usb?
[19:10] <IdleOne> cjae: because the system is using it.
[19:10] <Jacruth> uys
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  give the channel the exact commandline you are using to mount the thing.
[19:11] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it's persistant
[19:11] <IdleOne> cjae: is /home on a separate partition?
[19:11] <cjae> IdleOne: yes
[19:11] <IdleOne> hmm
[19:11] <IdleOne> should be able to unmount it in that case
[19:12] <Stef> Dr_Willis: sudo mount /dev/md0 /storage   --> first i made storage dir: sudo mkdir /storage
[19:12] <cjae> IdleOne: wrong runlevel?
[19:12] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: then it should behave just like a harddisk install (if i'm right), were you using flash when you closed it?
[19:12] <IdleOne> cjae: don't know
[19:12] <IdleOne> cjae: but I don't think so.
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  you are not giveing it enough optionx. give it a filesytem type pehaps.
[19:13] <Stef> Dr_Willis: at this moment i'm looking for errors on the array, is there a way to stop that job ?
[19:14] <Jacruth> perhaps ThinkT510 I think yes
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  no idea - i dont use raids
[19:14] <Izsha> Hi there.  I have installed Ubuntu on my laptop previously but went back to Win7 due to program compatibility issues.  I'm back to it, and everything is working fine except for my wireless.  I am able to connect to my wireless, I can ping the router, but I can do no browsing.  Pinging google.com doesn't work either.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I've been trying to get this to work for...
[19:14] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: can you check to see if flash isn't running, if it is kill it
[19:14] <Izsha> ...hours.  D:
[19:14] <cjae> I thought that because when you have a separate home part, your prefences for applications are stored in hidden files on /home, but being that I am using things as su can't see how unless it because of sudo
[19:14] <cjae> IdleOne: I thought that because when you have a separate home part, your prefences for applications are stored in hidden files on /home, but being that I am using things as su can't see how unless it because of sudo
[19:15] <Jacruth> ubuntu    6664  0.0  0.0   5176   760 pts/1    S+   19:14   0:00 grep --color=auto flash
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> Izsha:  if you cant ping google.com but you can ping the ip# of google.com = thats a sign of a dns server issue.
[19:15] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it is running, but It seems to ... be... odd
[19:15] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: can you pastebin the output of ps aux
[19:15] <Jacruth> it has a new signal each time I...
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> cjae:  hidden .files are not really hidden,. they just get 'ignrored; by most apps.
[19:16] <Izsha> Dr_Willis:  So I should reboot back to 10.10 and try pinging google's IP?
[19:16] <Jacruth> I cant open firefox to past it, ThinkT510
[19:16] <Jacruth> :\
[19:16] <ThinkT510> !pastbin
[19:16] <ThinkT510> !pastebin
[19:16] <Stef> Dr_Willis: adding -t etx4 won't work
[19:16] <cjae> Dr_Willis: right
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> Izsha:  that would be a good test. and check the dns servers. you caould set it to use a dns server of <IP_ADDRESS> *(googles dns server) and see if it then works.
[19:16] <ThinkT510> Jackruth: you can pastebin from terminal
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  i dont use raids. so no other ideas other then to say that erroe messege was teh generic 'mount failed try some extra options' type error message.
[19:17] <Jacruth> fpaste?
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> Night all
[19:17] <Izsha> Dr_Willis:  What is <IP_ADDRESS>?  I am able to ping that.
[19:17] <ThinkT510> !pastebinit | Jacruth
[19:17] <Jacruth> Izsha, is the google dns
[19:17] <sveinse> How can I make network manager to give me an autoconfigured ip (avahi/ipv4ll) if and only if dhcp has failed? Doing to "dhclient eth0" manually actually successfully sets up a eth0:avahi network, but NM doesn't
[19:17] <Stef> Dr_Willis: ok but thanks ;)
[19:17] <Jacruth> Izsha, google dns server
[19:17] <Diverdude> If i have a png image, is there any way i can see what the resolution in dpi is in the image?
[19:18] <cjae> IdleOne: thats what it is, I would need to be logged in as root
[19:18] <Izsha> Jacruth:  So then that means I have a DNS problem?
[19:18] <cjae> damn sudo
[19:18] <Jacruth> Izsha, if you are able, why should you have a problem?
[19:18] <cjae> root passwd?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> jesus..is there nothing that monitors dir size that i can use to trigger an event?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> its amazing there is nothing that does this based on event
[19:18] <ThinkT510> MnCC: welcome back
[19:18] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am not sure.  I am baffled that I am able to browse perfectly on Win7 and not on 10.10
[19:18] <MnCC> so i have gnome on top of x-server , where does metacity come in ?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> i cant figer how how to pull that info from inotify
[19:19] <MnCC> Thx, had to eat something
[19:19] <jtniehof> Diverdude: pngcheck -v png_file.png
[19:19] <Jacruth> what kind of error Izsha ?
[19:19] <Jacruth> wait ThinkT510, it is hard to do it
[19:19] <Jacruth> :\
[19:19] <ThinkT510> MnCC: metacity is the window manager for gnome
[19:19] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: np
[19:19] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am able to connect to my wireless (it shows I am connected and displays that I have been assigned an IP address, etc.), but whenever I try to open my browser, nothing will open.  :/
[19:20] <MnCC> So i have gnome on metacity on x-server ?
[19:20] <Jacruth> Izsha, try to open the browser using the terminal
[19:20] <ThinkT510> MnCC: metacity on gnome on x11
[19:20] <Jacruth> Izsha, the terminal should display some error
[19:20] <MnCC> ahh..
[19:20] <sveinse> Can I make network manager check for dhcp IP and if not, revert to avahi assigned ip?
[19:21] <KramB> What program can I use that is like Team Viewer so I can help someone with their computer?  It has to work on both Linux and Windows.
[19:21] <Izsha> Jacruth:  Sorry, I didn't mean to say that the browser won't open, the problem is that none of the pages will load in the browser.  google.com, ubuntu.com, etc.  I am able to open my router's admin page only.
[19:21] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, http://pastebin.com/X2Cwh3YE
[19:21] <ThinkT510> KramB: team viewer is available for ubuntu
[19:21] <yuzodo> KramB, teamviewer lol, it works
[19:21] <khrm> ssh
[19:21] <KramB> Oh it does. :L
[19:21] <KramB> I knew that.
[19:21] <KramB> Thanks.
[19:21] <khrm> KramB use ssh
[19:21] <KramB> No gracias.
[19:21] <Jacruth> Izsha, let me think... can you do a ping?
[19:21] <Diverdude> jtannenbaum, This is the output: http://pastebin.com/A0pMTvQc    so the dpi is 150 ?
[19:22] <Jacruth> No gracias xD
[19:22] <KramB> She's too dumb to do that.
[19:22] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am unable to ping any outside websites, but I can ping my router and <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:22] <miloss> hi all people :)
[19:22] <yuzodo> hey miloss
[19:22] <opooto> how are ATI drivers nowadays for ubutnu? i'm lookign at a new graphics card, and I have always used nvidia
[19:23] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: well flash doesn't appear to be running in there
[19:23] <opooto> i remember having problems with mtrrs and high memory systems with the FGLRX drivers
[19:23] <Jacruth> you could deactivate the dns, but I think it is not the problem Izsha
[19:23] <miloss> hawe some one from serbia hear ?
[19:23] <Jacruth> are you sure ThinkT510 ?
[19:23] <FarkingBish> !serbian | miloss
[19:23] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, http://pastebin.com/XfmDx8Ne
[19:23] <BluesKaj> opooto, nvidia still works well here, 7600gt and 6400gs work fine on my linux machines
[19:23] <rcmaehl> Can I use an SD card as swap?
[19:24] <BluesKaj> err 8400gs
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, yup yup, but the graphics are going flaky on my 9600
[19:24] <BluesKaj> opooto, which driver
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, it loosk like the ATI chips are ~$25 cheaper for similar performance
[19:24] <jtniehof> Diverdude: yes, 150dpi for that example
[19:24] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: as far as i can tell, i don't think that is the flash plugin, it's likely unrelated
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, it's a hardware issue :)
[19:24] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Yes you can, but its very slow, so I can't see why you would
[19:24] <opooto> this card has "been through a lot"
[19:24] <BluesKaj> opooto, are you sure ?
[19:24] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, I think It could be because of that: each time I do ps aux, flash have a new PID
[19:25] <rcmaehl> sveinse: b/c it's going bad. The read and write speeds fluctuate wildly which shouldn't happen on flash media so I want to use what I can
[19:25] <opooto> BluesKaj, yup, sometimes the system won't post with it in, sometimes it overheats, i'm guessing a cap blew somewhere. it was a free card, so i'm not too sad
[19:25] <Jacruth> Izsha, try deactivating it
[19:25] <Izsha> Jacruth:  How would I go about doing that?
[19:26] <sveinse> rcmaehl: sorry, "b/c" ?
[19:26] <BluesKaj> opooto, ok, but nvidia is still the most reliable grfx in (k)ubuntu from what i've seen so far
[19:26] <rcmaehl> b/c = because
[19:26] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: sorry i can't help you further, you could kill -9 it but without knowing exactly what it is i don't know what effect it would have, it may respawn too
[19:27] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, ill do it
[19:27] <seangrove> Hey all, I can't quite seem to get the sudoers file right
[19:27] <seangrove> I have this line in it:
[19:27] <seangrove> %soto   dogen = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/nginx
[19:27] <AbuBadr> fan is running in highest speed all the time in ubuntu!! how to reduce it's speed?
[19:27] <influx6> seangrove:
[19:27] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: on what?
[19:27] <sveinse> rcmaehl: I've been working with sd-cards in linux embedded settings, and I see some cards/vendors which have great throughput (which is the "Class" rating) but extremely varying r/w latecies.
[19:27] <seangrove> From my understanding, it should say: Inside the soto group the user dogen can run /usr/sbin/nginx with no password
[19:27] <Jacruth> !killall
[19:28] <seangrove> err, can run `sudo /usr/sbin/nginx`
[19:28] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, do you know any way to kill process younger than a time?
[19:28] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Especially Kingston as they don't produce their own cards (they are rebranded)
[19:28] <Jacruth> for example, killall -y
[19:28] <rcmaehl> sveinse: the old benchmark showed very little fluctuation
[19:28] <Jacruth> but I dont know how to use killall -y
[19:28] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl,  my laptop fujitsu siemens amilo sa 3650
[19:28] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: sorry, no
[19:28] <thoht> hi
[19:28] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Tried bonnie++ ?
[19:28] <thoht> i ve an issue when removing a package: http://pastebin.com/n973pVk5
[19:28] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: sudo modprobe
[19:29] <seangrove> But that is absolutely not what's happening here... I keep getting prompted for my password when trying to run `sudo nginx -t` as dogen
[19:29] <thoht> how can i force the purge/remove of this package (hpasm) ?
[19:29] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: then sudo apt-get install fancontrol
[19:29] <phonex01> hello  ! !!
[19:29] <phonex01> from jordan to everyone good night
[19:29] <phonex01> fancontrol ? what is this //?
[19:29] <seangrove> influx6: did you have some idea?
[19:29] <thedangler> installed ps3mediaserver and it works but the GUI wont launch. Everything seems to be working fine otherwise. anyone know ow to get this working?
[19:29] <seangrove> Or does anyone have a better place I should ask help for in?
[19:29] <ThinkT510> MnCC: you still there? enjoying linux and the learning experience?
[19:29] <dustin> hello everyone
[19:30] <MnCC> Yup, removing packages as we speak
[19:30] <DannyButterman> Hi there
[19:30] <dustin> how you doing danny
[19:30] <MnCC> Weird though, wanted to remove a Thai language package, but had dependencies all over .. so i let be
[19:30] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, fancontrol is already the newest version.
[19:30] <AbuBadr> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[19:31] <sveinse> Noone here which known Network Manager?
[19:31] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: run sudo fancontrol
[19:31] <sveinse> *knows
[19:31] <DannyButterman> How can I configure a persistent "search" and "domain" setting in resolv.conf ? each time I assign them, it gets back to the former setting upon reboot
[19:31] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, Loading configuration from /etc/fancontrol ...
[19:31] <AbuBadr> Error: Can't read configuration file
[19:31] <rcmaehl> --help
[19:32] <MnCC> ThinkT510, you know a good SHA/MD5/SFV checker with small footprint ?
[19:32] <dgtl> DannyButterman, that is because is use DHCP
[19:32] <BluesKaj> seangrove, drop the % at the front of that line , it shourld read, username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/whateverapp,
[19:32] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: sudo pwmconfig
[19:32] <dgtl> DannyButterman, one solution would be to set resolve.conf read-only per flag
[19:32] <ThinkT510> !md5 | MnCC
[19:32] <seangrove> BluesKaj: Ah, ok, I'll try that
[19:33] <elijah> how can I remove menu entries for programs that don't exist anymore (Kubuntu)?
[19:33] <seangrove> BluesKaj: what does the ALL= there stand for then?
[19:33] <MnCC> Think510: i need one that does all, sha/md5/sfv
[19:34] <Pumpkin-> DannyButterman: you can define custom scripts for what to do when you dhcp up an address in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/. I imagine you can setup something there to apply persistent settings to resolv.conf
[19:34] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
[19:34] <ThinkT510> MnCC: sorry, don't know any
[19:34] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: O_O
[19:34] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, :)  what?
[19:34] <DannyButterman> dgt1: what do you mean ? read only "per flag" ? I have another box running on 9.04 that also uses dhcp and there's no such problem
[19:34] <Malkavian_> elijah: right click on KMenu and select edit applications??
[19:34] <DannyButterman> Pumpkin: ok thank you, I check that at once
[19:34] <phonex01> does anyone have an idea how can i connect internet throught Satellite ?  because we are about making evolution and the Gov may disconnect Internet ? need help here ?
[19:34] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: it's not seeing your fan
[19:35] <yuzodo> prepare for spam guys
[19:35] <BluesKaj> seangrove, I think for all the /usr/bin apps listed in the line , you can add several
[19:35] <seangrove> BluesKaj: yeah, that's what the manual says
[19:35] <MnCC> ThinkT510: np, ill start searching
[19:35] <seangrove> Looks like it's working - thank you!
[19:35] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, is there a solution or just went back to windows 7 :(
[19:35] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: you can try sudo sensors-detect then sudo pwnconfig
[19:36] <dgtl> DannyButterman, immutable flag, chown +i
[19:37] <phonex01> does anyone have an idea how can i connect internet throught Satellite ?  because we are about making evolution and the Gov may disconnect Internet ?
[19:37] <dgtl> DannyButterman, sorry, chmod
[19:37] <dgtl> is what i meant
[19:37] <dgtl> aehm chattr
[19:37] <dgtl> lol
[19:37] <DannyButterman> dgt1: never mind, I understood ;)
[19:38] <XLV> phonex01, its expensive, esp if you want to be totally untied of any landline
[19:38] <phonex01> i will pay whatever
[19:38] <Jacruth> guys, could you find me a "killall -y " use example? I can't open my firefox
[19:38] <phonex01> i dont care about money
[19:38] <yuzodo> that's 4 connections from the same IP
[19:38] <phonex01> just for 1 month
[19:39] <phonex01> i need it for 1 month
[19:39] <XLV> phonex01, whatever being 2K$ for the initial hardware? and then 100$/month for 512Kbit/s ( or somewhere there, i dont remember exact prices atm )?
[19:39] <cjae> ok so I enabled root account, dropped to console, logged in as root in /root and still cannot umount /home wtfudge?
[19:39] <Jacruth> guys, could you find me a "killall -y " use example? I can't open my firefox
[19:39] <phonex01> they provide me with UP streamer ?
[19:39] <cjae> what is command to check users logged in?
[19:40] <XLV> phonex01, yes, if you pay
[19:40] <phonex01> who provide that service ?
[19:40] <Jacruth> cjae, perhaps it is who
[19:40] <Pumpkin-> phonex01: I imagine you might struggle to actually get the equipment into the country though, especially now.
[19:40] <phonex01> do you have numbers ? can they installed it in Jordan ?
[19:40] <Jacruth> cjae, "who"
[19:40] <XLV> ah, that too
[19:40] <phonex01> man , no problem wit this
[19:40] <phonex01> i can get it inside the country
[19:41] <dgtl> cjae, that doesnt depent on users logged in, do an 'lsof | grep /home' and see what is accessing /home
[19:41] <XLV> phonex01, beware that even trying to smuggle it in atm the way things are there atm, you may be treated as a "terrorist" from your regime
[19:41] <dgtl> cjae, kill what is accessing home and umount it afterwards
[19:41] <phonex01> I'm already a terrrorsit in my country dictionary
[19:41] <phonex01> so nothing new !
[19:42] <cjae> Jacruth: ok thanks
[19:42] <cjae> dgtl: thanks will ry

[19:42] <Jacruth> cjae, dgtl wrote something useful
[19:42] <DannyButterman> I finally found that modifying /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf is the best way to achieve what I want
[19:42] <esing123> hi
[19:42] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl,  the rest is    No
[19:42] <phonex01> Thank you

[19:46] <phonex01> XLV i called them
[19:46] <esing123> I made an exception for youtube cookies
[19:46] <phonex01> it is a company in UAE
[19:47] <phonex01> they said it cost 800 USD for hardware
[19:47] <phonex01> and 100 USD monthly for 1024 line
[19:47] <AbuBadr> how to get an apple app store ID without having a credit card??
[19:48] <XLV> phonex01, well, there are two versions, one uses satellite for upstream too, the other uses some landline ( even pstn ) to send upstream and receive ACKs
[19:48] <XLV> phonex01, the former is much pricier
[19:48] <phonex01> they said with upstreamer
[19:48] <XLV> ok then
[19:48] <XLV> i havent checked prices for quite a while, seems they dropped
[19:49] <phonex01> y i know they used landline to send data because it is not easy to transmit a signal through satellite
[19:49] <illmortal> anyone know if there's a cairo-dock channel? Cairo dock keeps centering itself between both my monitors... like it's spanning across. lol <_<;
[19:49] <phonex01> but they said with upstreamer
[19:49] <coz_> illmortal,   there is   #cairo-dockj
[19:49] <dustin> hmm
[19:49] <burhan> hey guys
[19:49] <illmortal> thanks coz_
[19:49] <burhan> i am new here
[19:49] <dustin> anyone of you folks know where to find books on unbuntu that teach you how to use it etc?
[19:50] <ThinkT510> !manual | dustin
[19:50] <dustin> prefer free ones or if someone has a bunch they dont use
[19:50] <illmortal> hmm... guess cairo-dock channel died
[19:50] <coz_> illmortal,   sorry th at is    #cairo-dock   withouth the j
[19:50] <burhan> so i dont know what that is properiate
[19:50] <dustin> thanks think

[19:51] <MeanEYE> burhan: thanks to apple you need a mac and xcode
[19:51] <burhan> ok thanks
[19:51] <burhan> :)
[19:51] <burhan> then i have another question
[19:51] <Benkinooby> how can i find out if a homogenous differential equation has a distinct solutionß
[19:51] <MeanEYE> burhan: there are some of those IDEs that can make crossplatform stuff... I think that can work
[19:51] <burhan> does anyone know how to develop a mobile java program for nokia samsung etc.
[19:51] <Benkinooby> oops
[19:51] <Benkinooby> sorry
[19:52] <AbuBadr> how to get an apple app store ID without having a credit card??

[19:55] <l0b> Hey guys. I want to build a new machine on which to install Ubuntu.  Are there any hardware considerations I should keep in mind?  I'll probably have an AMD chip and a Gigabyte 4350 card
[19:55] <ThinkT510> !hlc | l0b
[19:56] <ThinkT510> !hcl | l0b
[19:56] <blackbird_> How can I increase the disk size of my Oracle VM VirtualBox running XP?
[19:56] <l0b> Ah, thanks man : )
[19:56] <ThinkT510> np
[19:56] <Jacruth> !wl monkeytown
[19:57] <l0b> Although... that's all prebuilt? I was hoping to save money by buying from newegg and assembling myself
[19:58] <l0b> Huh. This is kind of a bummer. I knew that Linux had some hardware dependencies, but didn't realize it was this bad : (
[19:59] <ThinkT510> l0b: the biggest things to consider are graphics, wifi
[20:00] <_Neytiri_> seclfe
[20:00] <_Neytiri_> whops
[20:00] <l0b> No wonder the "Year of Linux" has never arrived.  The OS is nowhere near as portable as Windows
[20:00] <dustin> heh
[20:00] <raven> hi
[20:00] <dustin> hello raven
[20:01] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:01] <ThinkT510> l0b: perhaps if you told us your preferences we could tell you if it is supported
[20:01] <dustin> okay anyone help me load a file ?
[20:01] <dustin> if they got time for a noob
[20:01] <dustin> or find the self installer for it?
[20:02] <khrm> What file?
[20:02] <l0b> Fair enough.  I'd like to buy parts on newegg, assemble the machine myself and install Ubuntu 10.10 on it.
[20:02] <l0b> Is there a way I can verify whether a particular GPU is supported by Ubuntu?
[20:02] <ThinkT510> l0b: what graphics and wifi are you considering?
[20:03] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:03] <ThinkT510> l0b: ati and nvidia have proprietry drivers available
[20:03] <l0b> I'm considering this GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125251
[20:04] <dustin> well i downloaded quake2 linux and ive extracted the folder
[20:04] <broyles> .p
[20:04] <ThinkT510> l0b: that should be supported via flgrx
[20:04] <dustin> but dont know where to find the run application or run it through the terminal.
[20:04] <broyles> l0b: with it being an ati there should be proprietry drivers for it
[20:05] <DJones> w 13
[20:05] <l0b> Proprietary drivers from ATI or from Ubuntu foundation?
[20:05] <LarsN> how would I go about replacing the icon on the gnome menu?
[20:05] <pozzi> is it possible to make a launcher that execute a software each tipe i start ubuntu?
[20:05] <Gnea> okay, looks like I'm not the only one with this flash red-tint problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1699351
[20:06] <ThinkT510> l0b: from ati
[20:06] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:06] <ThinkT510> l0b: ubuntu trys to encourage use of free software drivers
[20:06] <pozzi> is it possible to create a launcher that execute a software each time ubuntu starts?
[20:06] <broyles> raven: what problems have you had before it came up
[20:07] <broyles> pozzi: go into system menu and the preferences, then session, you can add startup items in there
[20:07] <raven> broyles, no problems
[20:07] <ThinkT510> l0b: as regards wifi, intel is likely the best to use
[20:07] <l0b> Honest question - how can a software driver not be free?  I mean, you buy the hardware and the driver's included in the price
[20:07] <l0b> Or do you mean free as in open source?
[20:07] <broyles> l0b: free as in freedom, not as in beer :P
[20:08] <ThinkT510> l0b: yeah, open source
[20:08] <broyles> raven: has evolution been working ok for a while? (have you done any updates etc?)
[20:08] <pozzi> broyles,  it asks me a startup command..what does it mean?
[20:08] <Pumpkin-> the other form of not-free is possible as well. Check out "http://www.turboprint.info/"
[20:09] <raven> broyles, worked fine, no manual updates
[20:09] <l0b> For wireless I was thinking of some Linksys card, but I'll try to find something from Intel
[20:09] <neiz> l0b: I use a radeon 5770 in 10.10 with proprietary drivers and am able to run wow, sc2, etc all at great quality
[20:09] <bikcmp> Hi all, what's the best way to sync my iPhone 4 to my ubuntu desktop?
[20:09] <bikcmp> i'm pretty sure it's 10.10.
[20:09] <broyles> pozzi: thats the thing you want to get auto started
[20:09] <Wot_Wot> pozzi, System >> Preferences >> Startup Applications
[20:09] <l0b> neiz - Do you use WINE to run those games?
[20:09] <neiz> l0b: yes
[20:09] <ThinkT510> !iphone | bikcmp
[20:09] <l0b> Sounds cool
[20:10] <pozzi> yes ok Wot_Wot , here i choose what i want to start. then he asks me "startup command". what do i put here?
[20:10] <broyles> raven: mm one thing to try is closing the wizard and trying to launch from a terminal window, see if there is any errors
[20:10] <misiek27> jest ktoś z polski
[20:10] <l0b> When new versions of Ubuntu come out, is it up to the hardware vendors to update their drivers or does Ubuntu try to maintain backwards compatibility of some sort?
[20:10] <Wot_Wot> pozzi, presumably the name of the program you are trying to start, usually found in /usr/bin/
[20:10] <ThinkT510> !pl | misiek27
[20:11] <raven> broyles, no error messages
[20:11] <broyles> raven: does it launch the wizard again?
[20:11] <misiek27> oki
[20:11] <raven> broyles, yes
[20:11] <pozzi> k ty
[20:11] <jgcampbell300> hello .. I need some advice ... I am looking for a good tutorial for installing and setting up samba ldap and dns on a server I plan to make a PDC out of ... can anyone help me ... most of the info i have gathered from the net is either incorrect, outdated, or just all out hard to understand  not to mention missing things
[20:12] <madsj> is there some reason why ubuntu 10.10 messed up with ssh? when I try to login to servers which have my public key, I am requested for the password for some odd reason (wasn't in 10.04 and earlier versions)
[20:12] <[TK]D-Fender> l0b: few manufacturers provide direct driver support, most is via the community, and "backward support" is pretty much a constant.  With newer releases you get MORE supported device,
[20:12] <broyles> raven: thats strange.. does running "ls ~.evolution/mail/local/Inbox.sbd/" from a terminal work?
[20:13] <raven> broyles, file not found
[20:13] <ThinkT510> "ls ~/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox.sbd/"
[20:13] <th0r> raven: ~/......
[20:13] <broyles> madsj: check the permissions on .ssh and .ssh/id_rsa(or id_dsa) , it should be 700 for .ssh and 600 for the id_rsa(or id_dsa)
[20:14] <raven> broyles, no results
[20:14] <broyles> whoops i missed a / ;)
[20:15] <jgcampbell300> anyone ?
[20:15] <khrm> dustin first type this: sudo pwd>/etc/quake2.conf             & then: chmod 644 /etc/quake2.conf
[20:15] <broyles> raven: sounds like your evolution dir has gone for some reason.... has anything else on your system gone back to defaults by any chance? does ls ~/.evolution work?
[20:15] <mweichert> anyone know of a volume manager or filesystem with good copy-on-write snapshot support?
[20:16] <david> Would anyone recommend OpenLDAP or perhaps something else to replace a windows domain?
[20:16] <khrm> dustin : Also you have to extract file here in /usr/local/games
[20:16] <coz_> david,  if no one here can answer try ##linux  channel   although they are slower in there
[20:17] <david> coz_: thx, noted
[20:17] <raven> broyles, .evolution is there
[20:17] <broyles> raven: does it contain anything?
[20:18] <raven> broyles, yes several things
[20:18] <broyles> raven: thats good, ;)
[20:18] <khrm> dustin : for running there must be file called quake2 in extracted directory
[20:19] <broyles> raven: only thing I can suggest (unless any one has any ideas) is to follow the wizard putting in the same settings as you did before.. it may pick up your existing mail from those dirs
[20:19] <khrm> dustin : Are you there?
[20:19] <Dyresen> Anyone know when postgres 9 will be included in ubuntu?
[20:19] <raven> i hope so

[20:20] <gameaccount> Hi. My grub2 does not detect an install of win98 on my hard drive. How do I add this to the menu?
[20:21] <Alex_> gameaccount: Go to grub's homepage, they got allkinds of tutorials, inclooding your problem, wait, ill put link
[20:22] <madsj> broyles: I just have identity and identity.pub, but I guess they're the same?
[20:22] <broyles> madsj: yea they are
[20:22] <madsj> identity = dsa private key
[20:22] <Alex_> gameaccount: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Chain_002dloading
[20:22] <donnib> i get a lock icon on folders in my automounted NFS share, why is that ?
[20:22] <broyles> madsj: try this chmod 700 .ssh ; chmod 600 .ssh/identity
[20:22] <donnib> i have added the share in fstab and at the end i have rw
[20:22] <Dyresen> madsj: you asked about postgres 9?
[20:23] <Osmodivs> I just can't find a way to convert my videos, I have tried Arista but it does not have all codecs, Ogg convertor neither does<. How do I convert my Ogg files to WMV
[20:23] <donnib> the nfs share has open for eveything so no restrictions
[20:23] <broyles> donnib: try adding vers=3 to the mount options
[20:23] <Osmodivs> Or 3gp
[20:23] <donnib> broyles: thx, will try
[20:23] <madsj> Dyresen: no
[20:24] <madsj> broyles: is already the case
[20:24] <gameaccount> Alex_:  thanks. But does this also work on grub2 ?
[20:24] <Dyresen> oki
[20:24] <broyles> madsj: do you have the same ownership on the server and client, with the same uid (not name)
[20:24] <seangrove> Alright, I've gone to the other extreme - somehow I don't need to enter my password at all for sudoers
[20:24] <Alex_> gameaccount: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[20:24] <Bipul`> i dont understand why divx movies are not working in ubuntu
[20:25] <Alex_> gameaccount: But if you type grub-update, it will zero out
[20:25] <Alex_> the modified grub.cfg
[20:25] <broyles> madsj: sorry got people mixed up
[20:26] <gameaccount> Alex_:  I have ubuntu 10.04 so I do not know if I have a grub.cfg
[20:26] <broyles> madsj: try sshing wtih -vv
[20:26] <Bipul`> can any one help me
[20:26] <Alex_> gameaccount: Just type
[20:26] <Alex_> the modified grub.cfg
[20:26] <Alex_> gameaccount: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[20:26] <madsj> broyles: the ownership never changed, so that's the weird thing
[20:26] <Bipul`> i can not able to see videos  divx
[20:27] <coz_> Bipul`,   sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:27] <broyles> madsj: sorry that was a answer to someone else :)
[20:27] <donnib> same problem, still have the lock icon on the folders
[20:27] <donnib> :(
[20:27] <broyles> donnib: do you have the same ownership on the server and client, with the same uid (not name)
[20:27] <broyles> madsj: try using ssh with -v it will tell u if it trys to use the key ;)
[20:27] <donnib> broyles:not sure what u mean by ownership
[20:27] <gameaccount> ^
[20:28] <Bipul`> coz_, E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[20:28] <Bipul`> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[20:28] <broyles> donnib: if you do ls -la you can see who owns the files
[20:28] <broyles> Bipul`: close down any package managers you have loaded liek the updater ;)
[20:28] <coz_> Bipul`,  close synaptic package manager
[20:28] <Bipul`> every thing is closed
[20:28] <coz_> Bipul`,  or in synapitc  hit Search and type in  ubuntu restricted extras
[20:28] <Osmodivs> How do you convert OGG files to WMV?
[20:29] <coz_> Osmodivs,  ffmpeg
[20:29] <madsj> broyles: thanks for the -v hint; the file names are required to be id_dsa and id_dsa.pub (just make them symlinks of identity and identity.pub)
[20:29] <coz_> Osmodivs,    ffmpeg -i  nameof.ogg  nameof.wmv
[20:29] <broyles> donnib: madsj glad to hear that ;) and not a problem :D
[20:29] <Osmodivs> coz_ Thx, I'll try that
[20:30] <broyles> i am really tempted to upgrade to natty... :P
[20:30] <yuzodo> broyles, ME TOO lol
[20:31] <broyles> think i will do a backup first tho ;)
[20:31] <yuzodo> lol yeah
[20:31] <l0b> Hurr. At this point it seems if I want Ubuntu on a laptop it'll be easier to buy a Macbook and use Bootcamp : )
[20:31] <broyles> just got the machine configured how I like :D
[20:31] <mustardseed> hello, i have recently installed ubuntu 10.10 on a rather old machine; attached a brand new USB 802.11 n dongle which was a pain to install and have recognized by the system; issue is, the machine is really slow; am new to ubuntu, only tried fedora before, was not impressed with its management of usb and wifi either; many thanks for your help
[20:31] <yuzodo> l0b, yeah that's true
[20:32] <ThinkT510> l0b: thinkpads have been absolutely fantastic for me with linux
[20:32] <yuzodo> I second that
[20:32] <l0b> Cool, checking out Lenovo's site. Thanks ThinkT510
[20:32] <ThinkT510> np
[20:32] <broyles> l0b: i would replace macos on my macbook with ubuntu, but I still need photoshop (the gimp just does not cut it :( )
[20:33] <broyles> yuzodo: mmm can I be bothered waiting for the backup :P........
[20:33] <yuzodo> lol broyles
[20:34] <broyles> yuzodo: if i backup my home dir, thats 95% of the settings :P
[20:34] <yuzodo> hehe
[20:34] <broyles> yuzodo: and make a note of the the extra themes I have installed it should be ok.....
[20:34] <yuzodo> yeah
[20:34] <yuzodo> i write things down too lol
[20:36] <donnib> broyles: i managed to do ls -la on a folder and i can see "nogroup", i guess my NAS sets that
[20:36] <ryuguns1> Excuse me if this is to off topic, but how do you install gtkmoz(for python) on ubuntu?
[20:36] <broyles> donnib: yep prob :)
[20:36] <donnib> broyles: so what do i have to do ? i have set read / write access in the NAS
[20:37] <gameaccount> how do I find out which partition is hd0,2 ind grub?
[20:37] <gameaccount> *in
[20:37] <coz_> ryuguns1,  sudo apt-get install python-gtkmozembed
[20:37] <ThinkT510> !info python-gtkmozembed | ryuguns1
[20:37] <ryuguns1> yhank you
[20:37] <broyles> donnib: you need to find out what permissions you need to set on the nas.. its different for all nas's
[20:37] <ryuguns1> thank*
[20:38] <donnib> broyles: my NAS has an option   	 Write-enabled hosts:  where i can type the ip address, maybe that will work
[20:38] <broyles> donnib: let me guess, its a infrant/netgear ready nas
[20:38] <donnib> yup :)
[20:38] <broyles> I had one of those
[20:38] <donnib> is that a problem ?
[20:38] <broyles> nope :P
[20:38] <ryuguns1> @coz_ ,  ThinKT510  and  ubottu: thank you
[20:38] <broyles> but I recommend u mount via samba :P
