[00:00] <induz> I want to copy a CD  and its bootable Cd
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> induz: gnomebaker....

[00:02] <fr00g> Can anyone tell me why CoverGloobus is having problems with Banshee? It won't display any track info, or even acknowledge that something is playing. It works fine with Rhythmbox, though.
[00:02] <sobczyk_> hello, why gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-dev is not in repositories? (there is -doc -dbg but no -dev)

[00:05] <ActionParsnip> induz: doesn't it have a 'burn CD image' button
[00:05] <slide> Is there any way to see which source is listing a package in apt? For some reason Im still listing chromium 12 even though Ive removed the nightly build ppa, but its still listed and I want to install v10
[00:05] <b1lly> im in the nano editor, and i inserted a bunch of text that this guide told me to do for installing aptana, how do i save it o exit it lol
[00:06] <needlez> induz: if you have an .iso file you should be able to right click the .iso file and go burn image to disc
[00:06] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: CTRL+X, Press Y, Press ENTER
[00:06] <uofm49426> you every have think pad

[00:08] <induz> problem occues after 50% action is done on k3b...i have tried almost changing 10 DVDs
[00:09] <maguey_> ActionParsnip:What about all the packages ?
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> uofm49426: this is ubuntu support, not hardware but I found this: http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=2362   in future please keep to the channel topic
[00:09] <uofm49426> look just like a small usb port
[00:09] <needlez> billy:  shouldn't it be /usr/lib/mozilla ?? not sure just thinking that
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> !clone | maguey_
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> maguey_: use that but use the extra --reinstall option
[00:10] <maguey_> ActionParnsnip:??
[00:10] <sheldon> does anyone know how to manually change the login screen background for gdm?
[00:10] <uofm49426> were is the ubuntu bs room
[00:10] <SargonRose> gdm
[00:10] <papa> hello
[00:10] <sheldon> yes...I'm running ubuntu server
[00:10] <mrdeb> why does the face picture in gdm keep disappearing after i set it?
[00:10] <SargonRose> ?
[00:10] <SargonRose> i mean gdm?
[00:11] <jrtayloriv> If I set up a dual boot system with Debian and Ubuntu, I couldn't use the same /home because the different versions of gnome, firefox, etc. would be different versions, right? Or is there some way that I can make it where they won't stomp on each other's configuration?
[00:11] <b1lly> error writing /user/bin/aptana3 no such file or dir
[00:11] <induz> ActionParsnip, I am trying the copy Cd button and it fails due to some permission problems
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> induz: try a different app then.
[00:11] <sheldon> but I installed xubuntu-desktop, but the login screen background isn't showing up properly.
[00:11] <mrdeb> why do you want both debian and ubutnu
[00:12] <jrtayloriv> mrdeb, i'm going to be moving to Debian eventually, but want to keep my Ubuntu system up until i'm sure everything is working.
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: sounds like you need to symlink the aptana3 binary to /usr/bin
[00:12] <b1lly> idk how to do this
[00:13] <ruser> how do I enable MouseKeys from the keyboard, not the KDE or LXDE menu
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: try researching some then, you'll learn some. If you are new to the OS it's  obvious you won't know
[00:13] <b1lly> is there like a good starters guide anywhere
[00:13] <b1lly> lol
[00:13] <ruser> I'm talking about MouseKeys  , the th ing activated by Alt+Shift+Num Lock
[00:13] <induz> can i copy that CD to a DVd...or it has to be a CD??
[00:13] <ruser> That lets you use numeric keypad to control the mouse cursor
[00:14] <Starminn> If I want to make a script to simply launch a file, what filetype does it have to be, and what should the #! point to?
[00:14] <fxhp> ActionParsnip b1lly: and by research we mean a simple google search before asking
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> fxhp: not necessarily
[00:14] <fxhp> Starminn: depends, linux doesn't require filetypes
[00:14] <s-fox> Hello,  wondering if anyone can point me to an irc channel to discuss planet ubuntu.  My blog post has not appeared (posted over 3 hours ago). I checked my rss and it matches the config.ini . Any one know where would be better to get help? Thank you :)
[00:14] <flamot> i think stealcian should finally get sex from him than permanently get rid of h
[00:14] <ruser> That lets you use numeric keypad to control the mouse cursor
[00:14] <ruser> I'm talking about MouseKeys  , the th ing activated by Alt+Shift+Num Lock
[00:14] <ruser> how do I enable MouseKeys from the keyboard, not the KDE or LXDE menu
[00:15] <b1lly> brb
[00:15] <fxhp> Starminn: .sh might be a good start, and have it point to bash
[00:15] <ruser> Does Alt+Shift+Num Lock work on ALL X Servers?
[00:15] <Starminn> fxhp: Wait, really? You can just save a file name and not have a file type for it?
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> fxhp: by saying 'research' the method is not locked down to google, there are many search engines available
[00:15] <induz> ActionParsnip, i get this error v
[00:15] <induz> http://i.imgur.com/AyxVH.png
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> induz: try:    kdesu k3b
[00:16] <ruser> Why isn't anyone helping me?
[00:16] <fxhp> Starminn: in the terminal type: whereis bash   ...  get the path for bash, then on the top of the file to somethinglike  #! /bin/bash
[00:16] <SargonRose> Hi, is there a way to resize partitions?
[00:16] <induz> is it on terminal?
[00:16] <ruser> Does Alt+Shift+Num Lock work on ALL X Servers?
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> ruser: if nobody knows, they can't answer can they
[00:16] <ruser> You're helping out others but you aren't helping me!
[00:16] <Starminn> fxhp: I have that already.
[00:16] <IdleOne> ruser: maybe nobody knows the answer
[00:17] <fxhp> Starminn: did you set the file exec bit?
[00:17] <induz>  kdesu k3b?? what is that??
[00:17] <Starminn> I chmod'ed it to be executable.
[00:17] <Starminn> fxhp: ^
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> ruser: because I don't know an answer.......that crossed your mind...?
[00:17] <padre> Hi all.. is there an apache help channel on here? I could really use a hand,. :)
[00:17] <induz> ActionParsnip,  kdesu k3b ??? what is that? is it a command?/
[00:17] <Raptors> hey guys, how do I copy disk to iso with brasero?
[00:17] <fxhp> Starminn: is your pwd the same location as the file?
[00:17] <ruser> Does Alt+Shift+Num Lock work on ALL X Servers?
[00:17] <Starminn> padre: #apache ?
[00:17] <SargonRose> Is there a way to resize a partition in ubuntu
[00:17] <IdleOne> ruser: what does alt-shift-num lock do?
[00:18] <Raptors> the only options I have is cue and  cddao option
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> induz: indeed, you can fire it in ALT+F2 or konsole (I'm assuming KDE)
[00:18] <Ben64> IdleOne: mousekeys
[00:18] <fxhp> Starminn: if you are in the directory with the file, type './scriptname.sh'
[00:18] <Starminn> fxhp: Nope, and that's why I change the directory. This works if I do it live in a Terminal, but when I set it in a file (so I don't have to memorize the file path) nothing happens. #! /bin/bash
[00:18] <Starminn> cd ~/quake
[00:18] <Starminn> ./darkplaces/darkplaces-linux-686-sdl
[00:18] <Starminn> Oops.
[00:18] <StepNjump> Guys, I am on the netbook version of ubuntu, why is it  Icannot just  drag  files right on the desktop directly?
[00:18] <FloodBot1> Starminn: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:18] <padre> Starminn, thanks :)
[00:18] <Starminn> http://paste.ubuntu.com/583111/
[00:18] <Starminn> (I thought I had the link in my clipboard. I guess not)
[00:18] <IdleOne> ruser: it's ctrl-shift-num lock
[00:19] <IdleOne> not alt
[00:19] <Starminn> padre: :)
[00:19] <StepNjump> I know I can copy them to the desktop using nautilus but not directly on the desktop
[00:19] <padre> How can I register with nickserve?  Is there more than one memory in the control-C buffer ?  Can I retrieve an older one? ... this is so simple should be....
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> induz: paste the command in konsole and press ENTER
[00:20] <SargonRose> So resizing a partition in ubuntu?
[00:21] <SargonRose> Can i do it without other programs
[00:21] <induz> ActionParsnip, ok
[00:21] <IdleOne> !gparted
[00:21] <StepNjump> even right clicking on the desktop doesn't do anything
[00:21] <SargonRose> thank you veery much
[00:21] <Starminn> fxhp: That does launch the program, but the way that program works, my working directory has to be something other than ~.
[00:21] <SargonRose> very*
[00:22] <induz> ActionParsnip, it says kdesu command is not found
[00:22] <fxhp> Starminn: place a cd ~/quake; before
[00:22] <fix> hey anyone here, I have a dns related problem with my server
[00:22] <fxhp> Starminn: you can have more then one command
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> induz: are you using KDE?
[00:22] <Ben64> fix: just ask a question, best way to get answers
[00:22] <fix> I have a dhcp server/dns server running Ubuntu 9.10 on my lan and its not pulling dns requests from the dns server it should be
[00:22] <Starminn> fxhp: Do I do "cd ~/quake && <<rest of command>>"?
[00:22] <fix> I have no idea where the hell its going dns queries from
[00:22] <lespaul> hello
[00:22] <padre> Starminn, oh.. ok.. sorry about the request then :)  I think I'm registered now..
[00:23] <padre> I guess.. LOL
[00:23] <fix> but its not getting it from the server I specificed in resolv.conf
[00:23] <Starminn> padre: Awesome. :) The link on their t freenode tells you how.
[00:23] <Ben64> fix: you have bind running on it?
[00:23] <induz> i am using gnome
[00:23] <fix> yes bind9
[00:23] <Ben64> then its doing the lookups itself
[00:23] <fix> I have a Mikrotik router above it
[00:23] <induz> ActionParsnip, I am using gnome
[00:23] <SargonRose> IdleOne, thanks
[00:23] <fix> It should be pulling dns info from the mikrotik router
[00:24] <fix> but its pulling it from some unspecified dns server
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> induz: then use:    gksudo k3b       don't you find te dependancies pulled down when you installed k3b a bit bloating. Just for a CD burner..?
[00:24] <Ben64> not if it's running bind, and you have it as the dns server
[00:24] <paganazzo> mm
[00:24] <flamot> ..
[00:24] <IdleOne> SargonRose: welcome. hope it helps, Please be careful with gparted, it has the power to destroy all your data.
[00:24] <fix> ok, but obviously it has to also use a dns server for queries?
[00:24] <Starminn> fxhp: I tried the boolean and it didn't work.
[00:25] <cappicard> hrm.. hey folks. i have 10.10, and adobe flash keeps saying it's crashed... does it in chrome, firefox 3.x and 4.x.
[00:25] <fix> well the Mikrotik it the core router that the internet goes through to the Ubuntu server machine, so, they both have a dns server on them
[00:25] <fxhp> Starminn: maybe have the launcher call your shell script
[00:25] <SargonRose> IdleOne, thanks. im really new does gparted have a gui?
[00:25] <fix>  want the ubuntu server to pull dns queries from the mikrotik dns server
[00:25] <tripelbb> PLEASE Help. Is there more than one memory in the control-C buffer ?  Can I retrieve an older one? ... this is so simple should be....   -- It was something I wrote and -mental-lapse-  I control-C's over it.
[00:25] <IdleOne> SargonRose: yes.
[00:25] <ActionParsnip> SargonRose: gparted is a GUI to parted.....
[00:26] <flamot> ..
[00:26] <fxhp> fix: which dns server?
[00:26] <Ben64> fix: for dhcp settings, set the clients' dns server to the ip of the 'mikrotik'
[00:26] <IdleOne> SargonRose: you will find it in the menu under Partition Editor I believe after installing obviously.
[00:26] <rcmaehl> why doesn't Ubuntu-netbook have customization?
[00:26] <SargonRose> IdleOne, lol makes sence. ok i installed it with apt, but i dont know were or how to find it
[00:26] <SargonRose> lol nvm
[00:26] <fix> thing is I wanted to use the mikrotik as the primary dns server that the Bind9 pulls all queries from
[00:26] <fix> but its not
[00:26] <SargonRose> IdleOne, lol thanks for answering before i asked
[00:27] <Starminn> fxhp: Says the file doesn't exist
[00:27] <fix> I have it set in /etc/resolv.conf     server <IP_ADDRESS> but its completely not using it
[00:27] <IdleOne> SargonRose: :)
[00:27] <fxhp> Starminn: absolute path
[00:27] <fix> i can seee the dns cache on the mikrotik has no entries in it
[00:27] <induz> ActionParsnip, its copying now ..lets see
[00:27] <Starminn> fxhp: I have it set to the path from root (I assume that's "absolute"?) /home/robert/quake/quakelaunch.sh
[00:27] <_chun> Hi -- when I try to suspend my laptop, the screen goes black and I get a lot of hard-disk activity, but it doesn't suspend -- it's an asus g51j and google isn't show anything. Any tips?
[00:27] <SargonRose> IdleOne, would it be under system?
[00:28] <aeon-ltd> _chun: no swap file?
[00:28] <IdleOne> SargonRose: System > Administration > Gparted...
[00:28] <fix> UPDATE YOUR BIOS
[00:28] <fix> might be a known bug
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> induz: if you install gnomebaker and uninstall k3b you will save a tonne of space
[00:28] <_chun> aeon-ltd -- got a swap partition, yeah
[00:28] <SargonRose> IdleOne, Thanks i found it as you told me. if i had spent a little more time looking and not asking i would have found it faster.
[00:28] <induz> ActionParsnip, will it copy the extact copy of CD s this Cd is bootable
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> _chun: have you logged a bug
[00:28] <rcmaehl> My desktop has the most updated bios but can't suspend/hibernate correctly which forces me to do a hard reboot
[00:28] <aeon-ltd> _chun: >512mb?
[00:28] <rcmaehl> How do I fix this?
[00:28] <induz> i have downloaded gnoamebaker from the repo\
[00:29] <_chun> ActionPartnership: no, I haven't, pretty new to this kind of thing...
[00:29] <induz> ActionParsnip, k3b came with the kubuntu
[00:29] <_chun> aeon-ltd: yep
[00:29] <fix> the mikrotik doesnt issue dhcp, its a static dhcp server
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> induz: yes it will. Why install a KDE based app when gnome has fine burners which need a lot less space.
[00:29] <azm> Hello, how do I get back my nividia drivers in jockey after using sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* please?
[00:29] <fix> and the only thing on it is the ubuntu server than runs my lan
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> induz: oh so you started with kde then installed gnome?
[00:29] <SargonRose> IdleOne, Do you have experance with gparted?
[00:29] <rcmaehl> azm: sudo apt-get install nvidia*
[00:29] <flamot> hasnt been..
[00:29] <IdleOne> SargonRose: a little.
[00:30] <Ben64> fix: for dhcp settings, set the clients' dns server to the ip of the 'mikrotik'
[00:30] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: I have experience with gparted
[00:30] <induz> ActionParsnip, i started with gnome but then downloade KDE
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> azm: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[00:30] <fix> did u not hear what I said
[00:30] <fix> bro
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> induz: i see
[00:30] <fix> lol
[00:30] <flamot> yah it selaed.. sealed!
[00:30] <fix> Im not manually setting the dns server on my machines
[00:30] <fix> thats lame
[00:30] <rcmaehl> fix: you talking to me?
[00:30] <SargonRose> IdleOne, rcmaehl, ok they have keys next to the names. does this mean they are locked from being resized?
[00:30] <induz> ActionParsnip, can i use a DVD to copy this CD
[00:30] <_chun> aeon-ltd: just checked, it's 10 gigs, which I would have thought should be more than enough
[00:30] <azm> thanks
[00:30] <Ben64> fix: ..... you have a dhcp server. make the dhcp server tell the clients the ip to use, its easy
[00:30] <fix> if I have to set the dns server manually, then clearly my server is misconfirgured
[00:31] <induz> ActionParsnip, or it has to be a CD as its a copy
[00:31] <SargonRose> and did it hightlight for both of you?
[00:31] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: keys or licks?
[00:31] <fix> jesus chrsit
[00:31] <rcmaehl> locks*
[00:31] <Starminn> fxhp: Other suggestions? :)
[00:31] <auserofirc> i'm using gpointing settings tool in xubuntu, but when I reboot the settings are lost. How do I prevent this?
[00:31] <SargonRose> rcmaehl, keys, does a lick look like a toung?
[00:31] <IdleOne> SargonRose: currently locked yes. Are you trying to resize a partition that is in use? Also to save you asking 40 more questions it would be best if you booted from a Live CD and ran gparted
[00:31] <fxhp> Starminn: Where did you get the game?  I wanna play
[00:31] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: I meant lock not lick
[00:32] <flamot> ah.. wget 'internet'.. ?
[00:32] <ruser> Hello
[00:32] <Curator> wget internet
[00:32] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: oh the keys mean that they are mounted and in use
[00:32] <SargonRose> IdleOne,  no, the part im trying to resize used to be my windows 7 one but it died because a rootkit froze my laptop during my last part resize
[00:32] <ruser> How do I enable mousekeys in LXDE
[00:32] <SargonRose> rcmaehl, keys
[00:33] <ruser> you
[00:33] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: oh the keys mean that they are mounted and in use, you have to unmount them before you can resize them
[00:33] <ruser> You mean you type rcm aehl, keys
[00:33] <wlosio> on vmware i can play on windows xp guest on opengl games?
[00:33] <ruser> Okay... how do I install MouseKeys in LXDE
[00:33] <ruser> Is anyone here?
[00:33] <SargonRose> rcmaehl, IdleOne, ok thanks guys, does this highlight for both of you when i start it with both names?
[00:34] <aeon-ltd> ruser: sudo apt-get install mousekeys
[00:34] <Starminn> ruser: Have you tried in #lubuntu?
[00:34] <IdleOne> SargonRose: it does
[00:34] <aeon-ltd> ruser: if its not in the repos look for a ppa or compile it
[00:34] <SargonRose> IdleOne, ok thanks
[00:34] <ruser> Why ISN'T ANNYONE ANSWERING?
[00:34] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: yes
[00:34] <IdleOne> !patience | ruser
[00:34] <rcmaehl> ruser: what's your question?
[00:34] <Starminn> fxhp: Anyway (get my PM?) so it works manually from Terminal but a script won't do it. Any other thoughts?
[00:34] <aeon-ltd> ruser: i just did
[00:35] <IdleOne> ruser you could also try asking in #lubuntu if you are using lxde/Lubuntu
[00:35] <ruser> How can I get MouseKeys (use Numeric Keypad as a mouse) on LXDE?  It's not in Preferences?  Is it an application?
[00:35] <tripelbb> OK now we reward the complainer?
[00:35] <tripelbb> PLEASE Help. Is there more than one memory in the control-C buffer ?  Can I retrieve an older one? ... this is so simple should be....   -- It was something I wrote and -mental-lapse-  I control-C's over it.
[00:35] <mickster04> ruser: have you looked under mouse?
[00:35] <Xacobeoman> ruser: somebody already answered you that..
[00:35] <overclucker> ruser: scroll up
[00:35] <Starminn> ruser: Did you read aeon-ltd's response?
[00:35] <SargonRose> rcmaehl, ok so the part i have linux on is ext4 above it is a folder called extended. If i unmount it will it mess with my linux part?
[00:36] <uden> is there a way to get empathy to open up a tab or window if closed when some one messages you?
[00:36] <uofm49426> hey i found what it is its a usb power connecter
[00:36] <IdleOne> uden: that would be in empathy settings
[00:37] <uden> IdleOne, do you know what setting exactly?
[00:37] <siick> hello, im running ubuntu 10.10, trying to run a .tcl script, giving me the error "Error: version conflict for package "Tcl": have 8.4, need 8.5", checking with apt-cache tells me 8.5.8-2build1 installed
[00:37] <uofm49426> external rom
[00:37] <flamot> uh.. huh
[00:37] <SargonRose>  ok so the part i have linux on is ext4 above it is a folder called extended. If i unmount it will it mess with my linux part?
[00:37] <IdleOne> uden: no, but I remember seeing it once. I don't use empathy, just have a look and you will find it :)
[00:38] <uden> IdleOne, it is just a bit hard to test
[00:38] <uofm49426> ok hey how did they get 10.10 work with out using hard drive
[00:38] <SargonRose> uofm49426, Maybe they ran it from a disk?
[00:38] <IdleOne> uden: let me know when you have found it and I'll msg you
[00:39] <uden> IdleOne, I guess I can use the lan chat thing
[00:39] <uden> IdleOne, thanks for offering though
[00:39] <Xacobeoman> I just got 10.10 installed today under vmware.. tomorrow is going on my main partition :)
[00:39] <rcmaehl> SargonRose: yes it will try using gparted from a live cd
[00:40] <Devlin> hey there dudes and ladies
[00:40] <Devlin> I am having an issue with my joystick
[00:40] <Xacobeoman> Hey Devlin..
[00:40] <HoboSteaux> i got a 10.10 that isnt getting past the initramfs step, started suddenly
[00:40] <uofm49426> no see i dont have a hard drive yet i got this pc from ebay no hard or cd of any kind
[00:40] <SargonRose> rcmaehl, ok. ill bot from the cd. will i lose irc while in cd?
[00:40] <rcmaehl> ruser: sudo apt-get install xkbset
[00:40] <SargonRose> boot**
[00:40] <suicidolt> ok, I installed chatzilla via xulrunner http://chatzilla.rdmsoft.com/xulrunner/all , but I can't figure out how to actually run it...did I do this wrong?
[00:40] <eamon> Devlin: stop playing with you joystick if you have issues
[00:40] <Devlin> it seems to have gotten the idea it's a mouse too and it's causing issues when playing games
[00:40] <flamot> That pic of you running like a dog in a mixture of chalk and clay used for filtering urine from the initials of other stuff too.
[00:40] <uofm49426> its x41  it more netbook then anything
[00:40] <HoboSteaux> anyone fix non-mounting hd's in initramfs before?
[00:40] <Devlin> eamon: not that kind of issue :3
[00:41] <tripelbb> Is there more than one memory in the control-C buffer ?  Can I retrieve an older one? ...  Ubuntu HELP gives me nothing for "clipboard history"
[00:41] <Xacobeoman> suicido: tried searching for it?
[00:41] <suicidolt> yeah
[00:41] <suicidolt> oh, and why does ubuntu netbook not have a taskbar....it's  really hard to do stuff
[00:41] <eamon> tripelbb: I  think only in special apps like openoffice
[00:41] <uofm49426> trying to use intrepid from flash drives to install to a flash drive
[00:42] <uofm49426> just temperay thing
[00:42] <Devlin> suicidolt: I didn't like the netbook interface so I just changed the session at login
[00:42] <uden> IdleOne, ok found it. I had to disable the option, "display incoming events in the notifications area"
[00:42] <Xacobeoman> suicido: Ohhh you installed the plugin?
[00:43] <IdleOne> uden: I knew you would.
[00:43] <suicidolt> I think this is a great interface for someone who doesn't tweak their computer...but what linux user doesn't tweak their computer
[00:43] <suicidolt> Xacobeoman: yes, it is normally a firefox plugin
[00:43] <uofm49426> intrepid wouldnt go pass ide problems because theres nothing there
[00:43] <uofm49426> but ubuntu 10.10 work fine
[00:44] <flamot> i know he took it off with a guy who fights the seven deadly exes of his legs..
[00:44] <uofm49426> lubuntu 10.10
[00:44] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt: it looks like you have to enter irc.domain.com on the address bar and it will work
[00:44] <uofm49426> how they get it to forget i dont have a hard drive
[00:44] <suicidolt> no, xulrunner, it makes it a program on its own
[00:45] <spezza> hi is ruan verner in here
[00:45] <tripelbb> eamon another piece of wonderful writing in the trash. --- It should be that the system has this. So little resources used, so much hope gained.
[00:45] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt: ohh.. Sorry then.. I dont know..
[00:45] <suicidolt> I just don't know how to run the program in linux
[00:45] <suicidolt> I am very new here
[00:45] <rcmaehl> suicidolt: ummm I know a few people who don't tweak their linux
[00:45] <suicidolt> rcmaehl: fair enough, I know one
[00:45] <chros> hi is ruan verner here
[00:46] <Devlin> One of the first things I do to every ubuntu install of mine is change the theme and icons and wallpaper
[00:46] <Devlin> then dive into gconf
[00:46] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt: this should help you http://chatzilla.rdmsoft.com/xulrunner/
[00:46] <suicidolt> that's the link I just gave you :)
[00:47] <Xacobeoman> Look at Item #6
[00:47] <suicidolt> my confusion iss not with xulrunner, but with linux
[00:47] <Xacobeoman> Start chatzilla in /usr/lib/chatzilla.
[00:47] <suicidolt> how do I run the program now that it has been installed
[00:47] <suicidolt> right, start it how?
[00:47] <suicidolt> double clicking chatzilla didn't work
[00:47] <mickster04> suicidolt: try typing chatz[tab] the tab will autocomplete
[00:47] <Devlin> ok, I was actually being serious about my issue
[00:47] <mickster04> suicidolt: then press return, you will get error messages if there are any
[00:48] <spezza> hi is ruan verner in here
[00:48] <suicidolt> where? in the applications pop-up thing?
[00:48] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt, try doing it from a terminal window
[00:48] <Devlin> Any input I make with the joystick translates directly to mouse movement, and I would like to turn this off without disabling my joystick completely
[00:48] <ruser> How do I enable mousekeys?  Is it a program?
[00:48] <rcmaehl> Oh anyone know any packages like ubuntu-tweak and ailurus
[00:48] <suicidolt> I have to start my irc from a terminal....
[00:48] <rcmaehl> ruser: sudo apt-get install xkbset
[00:48] <mickster04> ruser: you have been told about this now
[00:48] <xfxf> hi all
[00:49] <ruser> Or is it an xkb-map
[00:49] <rcmaehl> ruser: sudo apt-get install xkbset
[00:49] <zachlr> Trying to get a wireless adapter working on 10.04.  It shows up under ifconfig, and I can set an IP, but there are no networks listed as available and it doesn't work.  It works on my laptop which is 10.10 and has another internet connection, but I don't know which of these caused it to work.  is this normal?
[00:49] <ruser> Ok, thanks
[00:49] <mickster04> !mousekeys > ruser
[00:49] <ruser> My computer crashed  so if you answer, I didn't see it
[00:49] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt: No, but you may be getting an error and it should tell you from there if you are getting any
[00:49] <ruser> Repeat the message if you can
[00:49] <flamot> would rather be?. .. thanks a ton of errors and no jpg display..
[00:49] <xfxf> hi all
[00:49] <xfxf> hi is ruan verner in here
[00:49] <ruser> Thanks a ton
[00:49] <xfxf> *tonne
[00:49] <mickster04> xfxf: you've asked that already
[00:49] <rcmaehl> zachlr: does it work after reboot
[00:49] <rcmaehl> ?
[00:49] <mickster04> xfxf: depends if that is a metric ton or imperial
[00:50] <xfxf> mickster04, are you ruan verner
[00:50] <ruser> Hello
[00:50] <mickster04> xfxf: no
[00:50] <aeon-ltd> xfxf: if ruan were watching ruan would respond
[00:50] <ruser> Please private message me it again telling me what to do for getting Mousekeys
[00:50] <Xacobeoman> any recomendation for an IRC client under ubuntu?  running Xchat currentyl
[00:50] <xfxf> Xacobeoman, mirc
[00:50] <mickster04> !mousekeys > ruser
[00:50] <Xacobeoman> xfxf.  thank you
[00:50] <aeon-ltd> Xacobeoman: like cli? irssi
[00:50] <Devlin> Xacobeoman: I would say irssi, if you love terminals :D
[00:51] <zachlr> rcmaehl, I can try rebooting.  Ubuntu was installed minutes ago on that computer, if it makes a difference.
[00:51] <ruser> Thanks, it works!
[00:51] <Xacobeoman> Thanks guys
[00:51] <xfxf> Xacobeoman, no problems
[00:51] <Devlin> for gui, I would use xchat or konversation
[00:51] <rcmaehl> zachlr: try rebooting
[00:51] <xfxf> mirc within wine
[00:51] <ruser> I think you guys are the best!  Takes i you forever to answer though.
[00:52] <Devlin> mIRC in wine? lol 'sploits
[00:52] <Xacobeoman> laughing @ ruser.. hahaha
[00:52] <ruser> Don't forget the mIRC keygen
[00:52] <xfxf> ruser, to make us answer faster, su init 6
[00:52] <Devlin> that's mean
[00:52] <xfxf> ruser, then press enter
[00:52] <mickster04> xfxf: don't give false information
[00:52] <ruser> What does su inint 6 do
[00:52] <Jasonn> ruser: if you wanna fix all your comp problems, try fdisk all
[00:52] <mickster04> Jasonn: again don't do that
[00:53] <Jasonn> lol
[00:53] <Jasonn> jkss
[00:53] <ruser> Why is it that the cursor moves so slow then?
[00:53] <xfxf> ruser, activates high flow - makes IRC packets not drop
[00:53] <suicidolt> this should work http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p145/Suicidolt/?action=view&current=Screenshot.png
[00:53] <`greenlight> i have already installed wamp for ubuntu 10.10 and I want to install ruby on rails, how can I install it the proper way?
[00:53] <mickster04> !requirements | ruser
[00:53] <Ben64> ruser: it reboots the computer, don't do it
[00:54] <mickster04> 'wamp?
[00:54] <suicidolt> there, the chatzilla folder, you see  what is in there...what do I click on? when I type "chatzilla" into the terminal, naturally it says no such command
[00:54] <ruser> Why does my mouse move so slowly or is very choppy when I use MouseKeys
[00:54] <mickster04> suicidolt: are you tab-completing the command
[00:54] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt,  ./chatzilla ?
[00:54] <Jasonn> mickster04: xfxf wasnt giving false info,
[00:54] <mickster04> suicidolt: and how did you install it? sudo apt-get install chatzilla? software centre?
[00:54] <xfxf> ruser, su init 0
[00:54] <suicidolt> xulrunner
[00:54] <zachlr> rcmaehl, no change.  It's recognized (lsusb and ifconfig), but it doesn't work.  maybe there just aren't drivers for it on 10.04 or they need to be downloaded from the internet.
[00:54] <Ben64> ruser: because mouses are designed to be used by a mouse, not keys
[00:55] <xfxf> ruser, thatll turn on mouse acceleration
[00:55] <Ben64> !ops | xfxf
[00:55] <suicidolt> the command doesn't tab complete
[00:55] <ruser> How do I turn on Mouse Acceleration?
[00:55] <Ben64> ruser: don't listen to xfxf at all
[00:55] <mickster04> suicidolt: in which case you have either not installed chatzilla or the command is something else,
[00:55] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt, I agree with mickster04
[00:55] <suicidolt> ./chatzilla worked, thanks
[00:55] <Ben64> IdleOne:  :D
[00:55] <suicidolt> that's what I was asking :)
[00:56] <Subwire> ping
[00:56] <suicidolt> now how do I run it without using a terminal
[00:56] <mickster04> suicidolt: so how did you install it anyway?
[00:56] <ruser> I put mouse acceleration to the highest possible setting and it's still chioopppy
[00:56] <mickster04> ruser: choppy != slow....
[00:56] <suicidolt> http://chatzilla.rdmsoft.com/xulrunner/all mickster04
[00:56] <Jasonn> IdleOne: what does su init 6 do?
[00:56] <Ben64> ruser: mousekeys aren't a great way to use a mouse. it either will be precise and slow, or choppy and fast
[00:56] <Ben64> Jasonn: it reboots the computer
[00:56] <mickster04> suicidolt: is it not in the repos then?
[00:56] <Jasonn> thanks
[00:57] <Ben64> well... "sudo init 6" will reboot
[00:57] <suicidolt> Xacobeoman: see, that was all I needed, thanks a million.  Is there a way to run it without using a terminal?
[00:57] <suicidolt> mickster04: it's a firefox plugin
[00:57] <Ben64> "su init 6" will do nothing
[00:57] <Jasonn> ah
[00:57] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt, so ./chatzilla worked?
[00:57] <mickster04> Jasonn: so how can you say that he wasn't giving false info when you didn't even know what it was? you plank
[00:57] <suicidolt> yup
[00:57] <suicidolt> rahter than just chatzilla, ./ made the difference
[00:57] <mickster04> suicidolt: uhm won't firefox start with it?
[00:58] <suicidolt> mickster04: I don't use firefox
[00:58] <aeon-ltd> Jasonn: well it was more creative than the 'sudo rm -rf /*'
[00:58] <suicidolt> right now I'm on seamonkey, but it's slow and cumbersome
[00:58] <xfxf> aeon-ltd, i dare not be destructive
[00:58] <Jasonn> aeon-ltd: lol
[00:58] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt, I don't know why right clicking on it and clicking Run wont work
[00:59] <suicidolt> there wasn't a "run" option
[00:59] <ruser> My mouse just hung there, why?
[00:59] <Xacobeoman> suicidolt, I know enough to be dangerous :)
[00:59] <ruser> is there a keyboard command that lets me move a window, like in Windows?
[01:00] <Xacobeoman> ruser: yes.. ALT-F4 will move them for you :). rather close them..
[01:00] <ruser> Is there a way I can enable a serial mouse (/dev/ttyS0) without rebooting or restarting X?
[01:00] <suicidolt> switching out of seamonkey, brb
[01:00] <ruser> Could you help?
[01:01] <rcmaehl> My desktop has the most updated bios but can't suspend/hibernate correctly which forces me to do a hard reboot. Fix?
[01:02] <Axsuul> If I SSH into my server, and i press "up arrow" key to recall last command, instead it is outputting <[[A, any ideas?
[01:02] <suicidolt> ah, much better
[01:02] <uden> ruser, ctr+alt+shift+a direction key moves a window to another desktops
[01:03] <mickster04> suicidolt: i was thinking, have you set it to executable?
[01:03] <suicidolt> what is that?
[01:04] <_antant> does syslinux always take ages to run from a usb?
[01:04] <mickster04> suicidolt: well if it is an executable, you have to tell ubuntu that it is allowed to be executed, rather than just read or written to
[01:04] <uden> Axsuul, could your server could be running a shell that does not support that?
[01:04] <suicidolt> how do I do that?
[01:04] <mickster04> suicidolt: in terminal chmod +x ./chatzilla
[01:05] <mickster04> suicidolt: chmod modifies permissions, +x is executable, and ./chatzilla is the file name
[01:05] <suicidolt> crap, gotta exit, brb
[01:05] <mickster04> suicidolt: i m sure you can right click > properties, and make it executable that way too
[01:05] <fizyplankton> how do i configure the xorg doohickey for multiple monitors?
[01:05] <mickster04> fizyplankton: what graphics card?
[01:05] <mickster04> siick: and have you installed the appropriate drivers?
[01:06] <mickster04> fizyplankton: and have you installed the appropriate drivers?
[01:06] <fizyplankton> mickster04: onboard and nvidia geforece 9400gt
[01:06] <mickster04> siick: sorry, wrong nick
[01:06] <mickster04> fizyplankton: did you install the hardware dribvers for it?
[01:06] <jakedreamsbig> i need help with a quest everyone.
[01:06] <fizyplankton> mickster04 the ubuntu hardware driver makeis it so when i reboot, none of the monitors work
[01:07] <fabio333> is it safe to use the accelerations flags in about:flags with chrome/chromium borwser?
[01:07] <fizyplankton> so i got the linux driver from nvidia;s webpage, but id rather do the xorg myself
[01:07] <jakedreamsbig> i want to watch a video with a friend.
[01:07] <jakedreamsbig> the problem is that my friend and i are very far apart
[01:07] <suicidolt> that didn't work

[01:13] <fizyplankton> ChogyDan: nope
[01:13] <sir_luke> i need to be able to package with custom modules and prefix
[01:14] <fizyplankton> ill see if nvidia driver works first. even tho it WILL break the xorg. twill be fun tho
[01:14] <ChogyDan> fizyplankton: yeah, the ppa might be better to try first.
[01:15] <whizken> how do you change your actual name on your ubuntu account?
[01:15] <fizyplankton> ChogyDan: where is the paa?
[01:15] <osama_awny> اه

[01:18] <Axsuul> thanks overclucker
[01:19] <uden> Axsuul, could you not just run another shell after you ssh into your server?
[01:20] <uden> Axsuul, like bash or zsh
[01:20] <sl33k_> how to install from tarball
[01:21] <moltendorf> If I install a copy of Ubuntu Server 10.10 on a virtual machine, and simply copy the partitions over to a real machine, will it still run, or does it set up unique hardware-related configurations?
[01:21] <sl33k_> how to install a package from tarball?
[01:21] <surial> My scanner only works via 'sudo'. However, the user I'm trying to scan as is in the 'scanner' group. How can that happen?
[01:21] <Todd200> Ubuntu is so efficient that it bugs me, it only uses 2 gb of ram
[01:21] <surial> uname -a = 2.6.31-14-386
[01:21] <mickster04> Todd200: i know what you mean :p
[01:21] <Todd200> Anyone got good ideas for my other 6?
[01:21] <tbruff13> ok my pastebin code is HbQk5VMn can someone please help me with this
[01:22] <moltendorf> Todd200: A massive minecraft server.
[01:22] <iostream> Todd200: disk cache!
[01:22] <Todd200> moltendorf: that could be arranged :p
[01:22] <Todd200> iostream: ?
[01:22] <overclucker> sl33k_: unpack it and look for an INSTALL or README file. usually 'tar -xf tarball' will unpack it
[01:22] <uden> sl33k, first you read the readme in the tarball it normally has instructions on what to do ./configure then make then make install are the normal commands
[01:22] <iostream> Todd200: yes.
[01:23] <whizken> anything better than evolution mail?
[01:23] <tbruff13> help please im not trying to be rude i just dont want to have to reinstall
[01:23] <uden> sl33k, also you need to have the correct decencies ./configure will tell you it you have them or not
[01:23] <sl33k_> overclucker: tar -xf filename?
[01:23] <Todd200> iostream: ??? Explain what you mean by that, I'm tried and my brain isn't working
[01:24] <mickster04> tbruff13: just link us the whole address please, some of us have link converters so we can just click the link and it autoforwards us to a web browser
[01:24] <tbruff13> ok
[01:24] <iostream> Todd200: you cache your disk.
[01:24] <Todd200> How?
[01:25] <iostream> magic
[01:25] <overclucker> sl33k_: a tarball is a lot like a zip file, only using tar.

[01:25] <tbruff13> sorry
[01:26] <Todd200> I really need to buy minecraft
[01:26] <tbruff13> The line numbers must be a pastebin thing they are not in the original script
[01:26] <whizken> anything like evolution mail?
[01:27] <vicsar> .
[01:27] <tbruff13> whizken, thunderbird
[01:27] <Todd200> Any other ideas for ram? (like could I load my entire os into it?)

[01:28] <ron> hello
[01:28] <Gil> Evening all - I have an Ubuntu installation using separate partitions for /boot /home /root and /swap - I have upgraded my motherboard etc and cloned the image over to a new SSD and although I have the grub menu, Ubuntu is failing to boot. I remember in the old days of Kudzu, being able to automagically detect new hardware and continue - is there anything similar I can do without having to do a complete reinstall?
[01:28] <sl33k_> and i unpacked it by double clicking
[01:29] <ChogyDan> Todd200: I think there is a program called preload that would preload some files into ram
[01:29] <mrdeb> Gil: did you update the fstab file with uuids?
[01:29] <ron> sorry i cant type faster
[01:29] <Todd200> Gil: if I were you I'd just do a fresh install and restore /home
[01:29] <Todd200> ChogyDan: already use it
[01:29] <overclucker> sl33k_: what are you trying to install?
[01:30] <tbruff13> hello can someone help with the undo i dont how and if i cant undo it it will just waste space
[01:30] <overclucker> tbruff13: what do you mean by undo?
[01:30] <xrdodrx> what does Processing - "Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds..." mean
[01:30] <tbruff13> a script i ran how do i undo it
[01:30] <tbruff13> the script is http://www.pastebin.com/HbQk5VMn
[01:30] <xrdodrx> I was able to print fine a little while ago but now this always appears
[01:31] <xrdodrx> >:(

[01:31] <Gil> hi - I keep getting reset connections, so apologies if this is a double post: I have an Ubuntu installation using separate partitions for /boot /home /root and /swap - I have upgraded my motherboard etc and cloned the image over to a new SSD and although I have the grub menu, Ubuntu is failing to boot. I remember in the old days of Kudzu, being able to automagically detect new hardware and continue - is there anything similar I can do without having t
[01:31] <Gil> o do a complete reinstall?
[01:32] <tbruff13> overclucker,  you still there
[01:32] <randomuser> Gil, your best bet is to reinstall and keep /home. /etc/ is a good canidate for its own part, too
[01:32] <overclucker> sl33k_: try: python setup.py
[01:32] <overclucker> tbruff13: you want to undo what the runescape install script has done?
[01:33] <Gil> randomuser that's my fallback option, but I was hoping I could avoid having to configure ppas and install all my custom packages from scratch... if there's really no other way, looks like it'll have to do though :)
[01:33] <Auriga> Hello, trying to get windows that are opening to stop moving across desktops when you switch cube sides... Any ideas?
[01:33] <mickster04> Auriga: don't press shift?
[01:33] <randomuser> Gil, how did you 'clone the drive' ? I would look to see if fstab/grub are looking for UUIDs that didnt survive
[01:33] <mickster04> Auriga: or make sure they aren't sticky
[01:34] <tbruff13> overclucker, yes sorry about wait
[01:34] <tbruff13> overclucker, i dont really know how, but since i am not going to use it i would like to reclaim the disk space
[01:34] <Gil> randomuser I did a complete forensic clone using ghost 8.3 - that usually does the trick but it's worth a look
[01:34] <mickster04> Auriga: on my set up ctrl+alt+left/right moves the cube. ctrl+alt+shift+left/right moves across with the focused window
[01:35] <ShapeShifter499> before I kill my system trying to update a driver I MAY not even be using....  how do I tell what graphics driver my computer is using, I forget
[01:35] <Auriga> mickster04, Okay... But i'm not holding shigt... I am opening or rebooting a vm for instance... I go to another cube side to do something else, & the vm will follow...
[01:36] <Auriga> mickster04, What is the 'sticky' option?
[01:36] <tbruff13> ShapeShifter499, go to administration and click additional driver
[01:36] <mickster04> Auriga: click on the top bar, opposite the [] _ X buttons and it'll list it there
[01:36] <mickster04> Auriga: it might be right click on that
[01:36] <tbruff13> overclucker, hello
[01:37] <dave_cave10-10> hello
[01:37] <overclucker> tbruff13: sudo rm -Rf /usr/local/share/runescape /usr/local/bin/runescape /usr/share/applications/runescape.desktop
[01:37] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks
[01:37] <dave_cave10-10> anyone know how to network a windows 7 and an ubuntu 10.10 system via usb 2.0 networking cable?
[01:37] <eamon> hello dave_cave10-10
[01:37] <mickster04> dave_cave10-10: a usb networking cable?!
[01:38] <eamon> dave_cave10-10: buy a newwork cable or use your wifi setup
[01:38] <tbruff13> thanks
[01:38] <Auriga> mickster04, You mean in the top left of the window? There is nothing about stickiness.
[01:38] <dave_cave10-10> mickster04: yes its a standard USB cable with a chip in the middle so the computers can chat via USB, same as firewire transfer
[01:38] <mickster04> Auriga: what options do you see?
[01:38] <tbruff13> astley, is the issue hardware
[01:38] <dave_cave10-10> 100baseT vs 400MBS hmmm lol let me think
[01:38] <mickster04> dave_cave10-10: ah ok, well are you sure it's not working?
[01:39] <Todd200> Anything else to hold in ram?
[01:39] <dave_cave10-10> mickster04: with windows its plug and play, but i dont know how to do it in ubuntu as i have never had to do it before lol
[01:39] <ShapeShifter499> tbruff13, ok seems I have the AMD/ATI FGLRX
[01:39] <mickster04> dave_cave10-10: plufg it in a see if you can see see another folder in places?
[01:39] <Auriga> mickster04, minimize, maximize, move, resize. always on top, always on visible workspace, only on this workspace, move options, then close
[01:39] <astley> tbruff: no people have been hjaving simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[01:39] <tbruff13> ShapeShifter499, okay install that driver that should be all you need
[01:40] <ShapeShifter499> tbruff13, I don't remember using "Additional Drivers" to install graphic
[01:40] <ShapeShifter499> tbruff13,  :/
[01:40] <astley> tbruff: no people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless *EDIT*
[01:40] <ShapeShifter499> tbruff13,  should this give me the newest for ubuntu?
[01:40] <mickster04> Auriga: sticky = always on visible workspace
[01:40] <tbruff13> astley, sorry i dont know
[01:40] <astley> tbruff: okay
[01:41] <Auriga> mickster04, No that shows it on all sides of a cube.
[01:41] <tbruff13> ShapeShifter499, yes It should have came up when you installed ubuntu
[01:41] <Todd200> I still can't use my other 6gb of DDR3
[01:41] <mickster04> Auriga: exactly, so if you uncheck it it will stop that happening?
[01:41] <mickster04> Todd200: try in off topic now
[01:41] <Auriga> mickster04, I think you misunderstand my issue...
[01:41] <Auriga> mickster04, For instance...
[01:41] <mickster04> Auriga: yeah
[01:42] <sl33k_> overclucker: after python setup.py --help it shows build and install options?
[01:42] <sl33k_> overclucker: what do i do?
[01:42] <uabn93> Hello, can I get help with grub2? I have problems updating grub.
[01:42] <Auriga> mickster04, If I am in a VM in cube 4, I am in a console, & I type reboot, then I move from cube 4 to cube 2, to change some music. The vm in cube 4 will follow me to cube 2 when the vm reboots.
[01:42] <mickster04> !details | uabn93
[01:43] <whizken> auriga, gl with that
[01:43] <overclucker> sl33k_: try: python setup.py build
[01:43] <Auriga> whizken, That means it's the impossible to solve...?
[01:43] <astley> tbruff: no people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless *EDIT*
[01:43] <mickster04> Auriga: oh, well that's because vm has an issue when it reboots, in gives itself focus on whatever desktop, there may be a setting for that, like "force focus on reboot" in VM
[01:43] <whizken> auriga, no i don't understand
[01:43] <sl33k_> overclucker: ya
[01:44] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[01:44] <Auriga> mickster04, I was using the VM as an example it's the same with anything which is opening. In general things take longer to open than my cube switching. Just A VM is the longest.
[01:44] <overclucker> sl33k_: to run the install option, you will have to had already run build, and also prefix it with sudo: sudo python setup.py install
[01:44] <randomuser> Auriga, is your cursor 'trapped' by the VM? is it only with VMs?
[01:44] <sl33k_> overclucker: install na now? why it needs to be built?
[01:44] <eamon> uabn93: are you following a guide? Where are you stuck?
[01:44] <mickster04> Auriga: oh, well when you open a program it is going to appear on whatever desktop yoou have open, that's always been the case, just wait until it is open then switch desktops
[01:45] <Auriga> randomuser, No it's not trapped.
[01:45] <suicidolt> ok, that's a step in the right direction, I made a launcher for chatzilla, now I just want it to show up in my applications pop-up thing so that i can pin it to my sidebar, how do I do that?
[01:45] <mickster04> Auriga: it isn't which desktop you were on when you clicked it, more the  one you are on when it opens
[01:45] <overclucker> sl33k_: not sure, but i know it's common with python setup.py scripts
[01:45] <n4pst3r> hi guys
[01:45] <mickster04> suicidolt: you can make a launcher wiht the same stuff in it as the link?
[01:45] <eamon> hi n4pst3r
[01:46] <n4pst3r> do you speak spanish
[01:46] <sl33k_> installed, thanks overclucker
[01:46] <eamon> suicidolt: right click, move, move it to where you want it
[01:46] <rww> n4pst3r: try #ubuntu-es for Spanish
[01:46] <suicidolt> mickster04: the link built the program out, I built a launcher to run it
[01:46] <Auriga> mickster04, Yeah I know that for other programs, in that I do just wait, but with a VM there is more than one part to the boot process, it will move when it first opens, then when it gets to the boot screen, then once again when it is logged in. At least lol.
[01:46] <n4pst3r> nice takns
[01:46] <overclucker> yer welcome
[01:46] <suicidolt> eamon: the sidebar doesn't work like that in netbook linux I don't think...unless I'm wrong
[01:46] <eamon> try it
[01:47] <mickster04> Auriga: i don't think there is a solution to that... it is just the way VM works
[01:47] <mickster04> suicidolt: well whatever the launcher does, create it again but when you make one on the panel
[01:48] <vicsar> Hello, I heard Ubuntu got rid of the scrollbars. How do I get that feature in my box? Preparing to install Ubunut 10.4.2. Thanks.
[01:48] <suicidolt> mickster04: I don't know how to make one on the panel
[01:48] <mickster04> vicsar: scroll bars are still available in ubuntu :p
[01:48] <DasEi> vicsar: unity you mean ?
[01:48] <mickster04> suicidolt: right click?
[01:48] <Auriga> mickster04, Still worth asking to find out for sure though. Thanks all the same.
[01:48] <suicidolt> right clicking on the sidebar doesn't do anythign
[01:48] <DasEi> !natty | vicsar
[01:48] <vicsar> Yes, i mean unity.
[01:48] <eamon> what's unity?
[01:49] <Auriga> eamon, The next bad move...
[01:49] <vicsar> mickster04, I know. I just want to try the alternative
[01:49] <DasEi> vicsar: commong release , see above
[01:49] <mickster04> Auriga: i think that is more a fundamental piece of gnome functionailty, the focus thing, of course you can stop it but it'll be beautifully complicated :p
[01:49] <DasEi> i*
[01:49] <Auriga> mickster04, "beautifully complicated" I like that.
[01:49] <mickster04> Auriga:  :D
[01:50] <uabn93> Yes, I have a problem in ubuntu 10.10 where I edited the grub file line "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga= 784..." I placed a "#" before "vga= 784 ......" in the program called GRUB CUSTOMIZER but I think I was supposed to place the "#" before "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX" . Now everytime I try to go back and edit the grub file and run sudo update-grub, I get the following error "/etc/default/grub: 33: =: not found"
[01:50] <eamon> Auriga: elaborate please?
[01:50] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[01:51] <suicidolt> mickster04: right clicking on the sidebar doesn't seem to do anything
[01:51] <vicsar> Thanks. Rephrase: How can Unity be installed in 10.04?
[01:51] <Auriga> eamon, Take a look for yourself, but personally I don't like the look of Unity. It's basically the new WM that Ubuntu will have when 11.04 is released.
[01:51] <eamon> uabn93: what's on line 33 of the grub.conf file?
[01:51] <mickster04> suicidolt: ooh side bar? you don't mean panel? uhm good luck with thta
[01:51] <uabn93> I will check..
[01:52] <eamon> Auriga: I'm not downloading the new ubuntu.... can't you describe it in text?
[01:52] <suicidolt> mickster04: it's whatever is on the left side of my screen in ubuntu netbook
[01:52] <Auriga> eamon, Youtube...
[01:52] <mickster04> suicidolt: yeah ok, no i dunno how to do that :/
[01:52] <suicidolt> does anyone know how to add a launcher to the sidebar in ubuntu netbook?
[01:52] <surial> My scanner device is at /dev/bus/usb/004/002. An ls -lah 002 in this directory gives me: crw-rw-r-- 1 root 189, 385 2011-03-21 02:48 002  <-- is '1' the owner?  What's that 189 doing there?
[01:53] <xangua> suicidolt: drag the launcher there¿
[01:53] <DasEi> suicidolt: left click, add to panel..
[01:53] <DasEi> err, right
[01:53] <surial> Oh, actually, I think the '1' is the amount of files that link to that inode.
[01:53] <suicidolt> right clicking on it doesn't do anything
[01:53] <surial> which leaves the 189 which is a complete mystery to me. Whatever does that mean?
[01:54] <suicidolt> is it even called a panel?
[01:54] <suicidolt> are we referring to the same thing?
[01:54] <rww> suicidolt: is that comma after 189 in the original, or a typo?
[01:54] <rww> suicidolt: sorry, mistab >.>
[01:55] <rww> surial: is that comma after 189 in the original, or a typo?
[01:55] <suicidolt> http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p145/Suicidolt/?action=view&current=Screenshot.png <--the thing on hte left
[01:55] <surial> no, it's in the original.
[01:55] <surial> and its followed by a space, then 385, which i presume is the size of something.
[01:55] <eamon> Auriga: It looks like ubuntu is copying Mac OS X http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/5076533585_3cf50de4d9_o.jpg
[01:55] <eamon> I guess that's nothing new...
[01:55] <tomasm-> i installed gthumb and now opening up all my folders from Places shows up in gthumb - can i get that to change back to nautilus somehow? its annoying
[01:55] <surial> The entries for . and .. have all whitespace where the entry for device 002 has "189, "
[01:55] <rww> surial: odd. If it weren't, I'd say 189 is the group ID, which ls shows if it can't resolve the GID to a group name. dunno what the comma's there fore, though.
[01:55] <uabn93> ="" is on line 33 eamon. The exact same text is on line 34 as well.
[01:56] <surial> rww: Strangely enough I can't manage to make ls list any group info whatsoever.
[01:56] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[01:56] <rww> surial: o.O
[01:56] <astley> please help
[01:56] <surial> rww: Isn't it?
[01:56] <surial> rww: Does ls strip out the group name altogether if the group name is equal to the owner name?
[01:56] <surial> Here's a sample line from a file from my homedir: -rw-r--r--  1 huisbak    0 2009-09-22 01:58 .screenrc
[01:56] <rww> surial: oh hey, I have it too on mine. hrm.
[01:57] <surial> rww: The 189?
[01:57] <rww> surial: yes. but I also have group information...
[01:57] <surial> I'm going to change some groups around, see what happens to ls.
[01:57] <overclucker> I get this on my machine: crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 128 2011-03-17 03:13 /dev/bus/usb/002/001
[01:57] <suicidolt> anyone know how tto add a launcher to the thing on the left: http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p145/Suicidolt/?action=view&current=Screenshot.png
[01:57] <vicsar> Sorry... i got disconnected. Anyways I was here:
[01:57] <surial> rww: Well, confirm that. ls -lah simply doesn't show any group information.
[01:57] <vicsar> Rephrase: How do I install Unity in 10.04?
[01:58] <surial> The ls man page only tells me how to turn groups off (--no-group), not how to turn it on.
[01:58] <DasEi> vicsar: repos arent ready, either install the testing, or for just an idea use a vm
[01:58] <surial> Oh, f....   If anyone is interested you can take a look at this: http://digitizor.com/2010/05/10/how-to-install-unity-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
[01:59] <DasEi> vicsar: you can do on 10.04 probably, but I don't want to break your --working system, else ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:59] <rww> surial: if I had to guess, I'd say it's something to do with character devices (that being the c at the start of the line). hrm.
[01:59] <suicidolt> the thing on the left appears to be called the "launcher"
[01:59] <vicsar> DasEI, you are right
[01:59] <eamon> uabn93: I'd say yoou should hash those lines out too. Have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#/etc/default/grub (file)
[02:00] <uabn93> I forgot to mention that I deleted what used to be on line 10, which was " GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" vga=792 splash quiet" "
[02:00] <surial> okay, I have my groups back. Now back to /dev/bus/usb... Okay, device 002 is owned by root. Why? Shouldn't scanner own it?
[02:00] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[02:01] <uabn93> I also unhashed " GRUB_GFXMODE="640x480" "
[02:01] <surial> Can I just chown this, or are these files in /dev/bus/usb dynamically created as USB devices are plugged in and out?
[02:01] <CajunTechie> Hi everyone. Is there any way I can find out where the Software Center install of ircd-ratbox stored its .conf file?\
[02:01] <a1fa> anyone recommend a good accounting software?
[02:01] <xangua> vicsar: old guides usually tend to...not work anymore
[02:01] <rww> surial: I think pretty much everything under /dev/ is dynamically created by udev these days.
[02:01] <DasEi> suicidolt: ah, no thats unity, too, I'm still using gnome
[02:02] <mickster04> a1fa: ask in off topic?
[02:02] <suicidolt> ?
[02:02] <Auriga> eamon, Which OS are you running...?
[02:02] <suicidolt> so basically, I install linux and ask for help from the community and get told, sux to be you?
[02:02] <surial> Thought as much. So how can I tell udev to make this as scanner. Or.. is there something else wrong? scanimage requires me to run as root, even though I'm in the scanner group (and so is saned). strangely enough sane-find-scanner does work, though it returns very slightly different information if run as root.
[02:02] <mickster04> suicidolt: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1229475

[02:03] <mickster04> suicidolt: unity isn't really that fully functional yet i'm afraid, you can use normal desktop mode at log in?
[02:03] <DasEi> suicidolt: you installed natty ? #ubuntu+1
[02:03] <mickster04> DasEi: no, nbr
[02:03] <vicsar> .
[02:04] <DasEi> mickster04: ah, I see, thought that had an adopted gnome, good to know then
[02:04] <suicidolt> what's natty? and why do I feel like I installed the "wrong" ubuntu, I just clicked through the downloads like it told me to
[02:04] <mickster04> DasEi:it's ok, nbr is being removed anyway
[02:04] <eamon> Auriga: OS X and gentoo linux, why?
[02:04] <mickster04> suicidolt: you haven't downloaded the wrong one, just an odd one
[02:05] <DasEi> see above, suicidolt, so ask for unity or try in #ubuntu+1

[02:12] <vicsar> Crazy random question: Can you create a virtual machine, say virtual box, then image the virtual drive and transfer it to a real life computer?
[02:12] <weird0{}> is anyone aware of any math teaching software that runs on linux/ubuntu ?
[02:12] <rww> DasEi: k
[02:12] <ohsix> vicsar: you can skip the imaging and install it on a physical drive if you want
[02:12] <mickster04> weird0{}: and chance you have asked in !ot?
[02:12] <ohsix> vicsar: windows won't like that, but it can be done
[02:12] <weird0{}> mickster04, no chance at all
[02:13] <eamon> Shayd: how do we get off the island?
[02:13] <mickster04> !ot > weird0{}
[02:14] <mickster04> weird0{}: just so you know where the channel is, that's the best place for those kind of questions
[02:14] <DasEi> vicsar: which kind of math ? there is geogebra, ..
[02:14] <vicsar> ohsix, I know. I just don´t have the other pc yet and wanted to avoid the re-install hassle
[02:14] <vicsar> thanks
[02:14] <eamon> vicsar: you on windoze?
[02:14] <DasEi> vicsar: nick-miss, sry
[02:14] <weird0{}> DasEi, about college algebra DasEi i only mentioned ubuntu and linux because i'm willing to compile it
[02:15] <vicsar> eamon, yes W7 Ultimate, ubuntu on virtual drive
[02:15] <weird0{}> DasEi, i did pick that one up earlier, and i'm feeling much better now, just not well enough to study.
[02:15] <eamon> vicsar: You're using W7 now right? Your encoding is coming up all screwy on my screen
[02:15] <Jordan_U> vicsar: Yes, you can.
[02:16] <DasEi> weird0{}: try to find a stud in #ubuntu-offtopic, they rather now, and oc, if you have a tarball, which is non-existant in repos can compile it
[02:16] <vicsar> Jordan_U: How? Any links you recommend I read?
[02:17] <vicsar> eamon: sorry :)
[02:17] <domouling> hello everybody
[02:17] <weird0{}> DasEi, i can compile stuff just fine.  i'm just wondering if anything is available.  as a habit this is usually the first place i look
[02:17] <surial> Well, looks like my /etc/udev/permissions.d/udev.permissions file is screwed up. There's no mention anywhere of 'scanner' in that file. How'd that happen? How do I fix it?
[02:17] <DasEi> weird0{}: search synaptics, crawl through apt-cache search mathematic ..
[02:18] <wingdspur> anybody using ruby 1.9.x on ubuntu 10.10

[02:19] <vicsar> eamon: maybe something to do with you IRSSI, is v0.8.15 the latest?
[02:19] <eamon> vicsar: Look for drive imaging tools in the ubuntu repos, image the drive, then unimage it onto a new partition with a drive imaging tool from the main OS
[02:19] <astley> i have been trying to get help on and off for a few days or so, i know you are volunteers i just want to know if the situation is hopeless...i can just use ethernet like i am doing now

[02:20] <weird0{}> awesome tjiggi_fo thank you :)
[02:20] <eamon> I thin it has something to do with UTF-16 or something
[02:20] <vicsar> eamon: I see. Thank for the tip, sounds like a weeeknd project. I will look into that.

[02:22] <eamon> osxfr33k: no
[02:22] <ubuntun00b> I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on an external 500gb harddrive. I have windows xp installed on my default internal
[02:22] <VxQe> aPpLeSiA: what are you searching for? It's first in the list when I search for VLC.
[02:22] <rww> aPpLeSiA: check that you have the universe repository enabled and have done a package update recently, then. It's in there somewhere.
[02:22] <osxfr33k> CAn I ask questions about it here?
[02:22] <vicsar> aPpLeSiA: see this: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html and this http://blog.sudobits.com/2010/10/13/how-to-install-vlc-media-player-in-ubuntu-10-10/
[02:22] <aPpLeSiA> hold on
[02:23] <DasEi> memorygap0: use a vm vbox or vmware are two solutions
[02:23] <eamon> ubuntun00b: what's the problem.....
[02:23] <DasEi> !virtual | memorygap0
[02:24] <DasEi> VirtualBox is freem there for xp, too
[02:24] <eamon> !livecd | memorygap0
[02:24] <ubuntun00b> eamon: it asks if the installer should unmount the partitions or not. I don't know if I should choose yes or no
[02:24] <narra> is the patch in a kernel patch the diff output between a vanilla kernel and the patched up version based on the vanilla kernel?
[02:24] <osxfr33k> I bacailly wanted to know the differences in Dockey versus The Cairo Dock
[02:24] <vicsar> memrygap0: use VirtualBox - virtualbox.org
[02:24] <aPpLeSiA_> I am on the ubuntu PC now
[02:24] <uabn93> eamon Thank you for your help. That solved my update-grub problem. Thank you.
[02:24] <vicsar> memrygap0: that is what I use
[02:24] <eamon> ubuntun00b: no, keep them mounted cause you want to install to that partition don't you?
[02:25] <aPpLeSiA_> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ apt-get install vlc E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[02:25] <vicsar> memrygap0: otherwise restart your pc and run the Ubuntu CD.
[02:25] <memorygap0> DasEi: I want suggestion which one more okai wubi or vm
[02:25] <rww> aPpLeSiA: sudo apt-get install vlc
[02:25] <ubuntun00b> eamon: I want to install to my external.
[02:25] <eamon> uabn93: np mate
[02:25] <iTails> Oh wow, a lot of people on here. O__O
[02:25] <aPpLeSiA_> Same error message
[02:25] <astley> network manager or wicd wont allow me to connect to wireless networks people have been having simmilar issues, i already did make and make install for the driver again, and again. i edited the wpasuplicant, to no avail, i use the ralink rt5390 for wireless
[02:25] <eamon> ubuntun00b: yes so keep it mounted. You can unmount the others if that is your question.
[02:25] <astley> for the umpteenth time
[02:25] <vicsar> ubuntun00b: word of advice - backup first
[02:26] <VxQe> aPpLeSiA: close the software centre/synaptic
[02:26] <DasEi> memorygap0: i recommend vbox, easy to handle n backup , less worry with a broken sys
[02:26] <VxQe> and the update manager if it's open.
[02:26] <aPpLeSiA_> E: Unable to locate package vlc
[02:26] <eamon> ubuntun00b: no need to back up if you keep your windows partitions unmounted. just make sure you know what you're doing.
[02:26] <memorygap0> Dasei: thanks i'll try to install now
[02:26] <ChogyDan> astley: what version are you using?
[02:27] <astley> 10.10
[02:27] <rww> aPpLeSiA: run sudo apt-get update, then try again. if it still doesn't work, copy the output of apt-cache policy to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the page it creates here.
[02:27] <ubuntun00b> vicsar: I just got my computer back the other day from a windows error. I don't have a recovery disk for it so I'm hoping I don't make any mistakes.
[02:27] <astley> ChogyDan: 10.10 Ubuntu
[02:27] <astley> 64 bit
[02:27] <ubuntun00b> eamon: ok I'll try what you said
[02:27] <vicsar> ubuntun00b: yeah, I agree with eamon. Read carefully, know what you are doing... but I would still backup :)
[02:27] <aPpLeSiA_> how do i copy the output?
[02:27] <ChogyDan> astley: I think you should try linux-backports-modules before compiling yourself
[02:28] <astley> how do i do that ChogyDan?
[02:28] <rww> aPpLeSiA: select it all with the mouse, hit Edit->Copy, open up http://paste.ubuntu.com/, do Edit->Paste.
[02:28] <eamon> aPpLeSiA_: select it with the mouse and copy and paste
[02:28] <xangua> aPpLeSiA someone forgot to mention you to use sudo: sudo apt-get install vlc
[02:28] <DasEi> memorygap0: don't miss the FAQ on vbox' homepage, else there is an own channel for that, but pretty easy
[02:29] <ubuntun00b> eamon: so I hit "no" then?
[02:29] <Akkan> :D
[02:29] <vicsar> Darn it!  Got to go to work. Thank you guys for your help tonight.
[02:29] <eamon> ubuntun00b: what's the question
[02:29] <astley> ChogyDan: how please, thank you sir
[02:29] <aPpLeSiA_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/583144/
[02:29] <ChogyDan> astley: hmmm, those drivers look very new.  You maybe have to go the compile route I guess: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/145572
[02:29] <astley> ChogyDan
[02:29] <ChogyDan> astley: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-maverick-wireless-generic          something like that
[02:30] <astley> ChogyDan: I have make and make installed already
[02:30] <mickster04> !tab | astley
[02:30] <mickster04> astley: just so you know
[02:30] <ubuntun00b> eamon: "Do you want the installer to try to unmount the partitions on these disks before continuing?"
[02:30] <eamon> Is the disk selected your windows drive, the drive you want untouched?
[02:30] <eamon> If so then "yes"
[02:30] <astley> mickster04: tab?
[02:31] <rww> aPpLeSiA: You don't have the 'universe' repository enabled. Open Software Center back up, go to the Repositories entry in the menu (I forget where exactly it is), and enable it in there.
[02:31] <xiaoshen> i just install xubuntu 10.10 on lenovo 3000 y400. but when i login there's no sound
[02:31] <xiaoshen> help me^^'
[02:31] <mickster04> astley: yeah, if you use the terminal, tab auto-completes things for you, as in the tab key
[02:31] <eamon> astley: it's the button on your keyboard above "caps Lock"
[02:31] <mfillpot> exit
[02:32] <randomuser> TAB IS A DELICIOUS COLA AND I WONT HEAR YOU DEFILE ITS NAME LIKE THAT
[02:32] <randomuser> /quit
[02:32] <eamon> astley: double tap tab to see all available autocomplete options
[02:32] <astley> eamon: i got you i misunderstood, of course the tab key
[02:32] <astley> in irc?
[02:32] <eamon> irc or shell
[02:33] <ubuntun00b> eamon: now I'm guessing that I should click "specify partitions manually" correct?
[02:33] <Jordan_U> ubuntun00b: Yes, you want the partitions to be unmounted and I would *not* specify partitions manually unless you have a particular reason to.
[02:33] <eamon> ubuntun00b: yes, then select your external hdd as the boot/install partition"
[02:33] <aPpLeSiA_> i enable it
[02:33] <aPpLeSiA_> there is still error
[02:33] <_antant> how long is syslinux supposed to take to boot?

[02:34] <astley> eamon: still not sure what to do when i press tab, how will this help with my wireless?
[02:34] <eamon> astley: it just helps you use the command line in general
[02:34] <_antant> cos mine's been going for about 5 min
[02:34] <rww> aPpLeSiA_: You can't have Software Center or another package manager open when you run apt-get...
[02:34] <aPpLeSiA_> No, nothing is open
[02:34] <eamon> type a, then hit tab for exam,ple, keep hitting tab to cycle through all the as in this room
[02:34] <Jordan_U> ubuntun00b: What filesystem is currently being used in the external drive, and do you want to whipe it out completely or only use part of the drive for Ubuntu?
[02:35] <eamon> type a, then hit tab for exam,ple, keep hitting tab to cycle through all the as in this room astley
[02:35] <astley> ok i got you now!

[02:37] <theteju> I need help, I have been using the ubuntu since more than two years now and all of a sudden my ubuntu runs slower than XP, to be specific the firefox and Chrome are slow for internet
[02:37] <Jordan_U> eamon: Why did you have him select not to unmount the partition which is presumably ntfs and therefore not usable for Ubuntu, and why did you have him specify manual partitioning?
[02:37] <eamon> astley: it's a very non-specific problem:-(
[02:37] <theteju> i disabled, ipv6
[02:38] <theteju> but does not help
[02:38] <Jordan_U> eamon: The simple, and IMHO best, solution is to let the installer unmount the partition and to tell it to automatically partition using the whole external drive.
[02:38] <ShapeShifter499> I ALMOST killed my system but didn't thanks to failsafe x mode :)     the problem is I tried to install proprietary graphics via http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Maverick_Installation_Guide#Updating_Catalyst.2Ffglrx                                                                   I got to Generic Config in the tutorial   and I found that the following command "sudo aticonfig --initial -f"  doesn't work because I have no

[02:38] <ShapeShifter499>  aticonfig installed and I don't know why

[02:38] <Jordan_U> eamon: His internal being unmounted won't hurt anything either. Why have him do manual partitioning?
[02:38] <astley> eamon: it has something to do with the wep passowrd, i think it is a security issues
[02:38] <eamon> !partitioning | ubuntun00b
[02:39] <astley> i have been having it for awhil eamon

[02:39] <bcurtiswx> or does it have another name?
[02:39] <Jordan_U> eamon: You are making this *much* more complicated than it needs to be for ubuntun00b.
[02:39] <eamon> Jordan_U: I told him to unmount internal, you're not listening. Manual so he can make sure he's installing everything in the right place.
[02:39] <_antant> god it
[02:39] <_antant> got
[02:40] <theteju> anyone?
[02:40] <eamon> Jordan_U: I don't want him clicking next then the installer wiping his windows partition. If he defines everything manually then this can't happen
[02:41] <astley> network manager wont accept passwords on the ralink 5390 chipset, has there been a fix for this yet?
[02:41] <ubuntun00b> eamon: "no root file system is defined, please correct this from the partitioning menu"

[02:41] <astley> rt5390
[02:41] <eamon> astley: I don't know about wifi, sorry
[02:41] <Jordan_U> eamon: I disagree, I think it's much easier to do something wrong accidentily with manual partitioning than with the automatic partitioning but I'll let you take it from here.
[02:42] <suicidolt> what is ubuntu one and why is ubuntu acting like I  need it?
[02:42] <eamon> ubuntun00b: select the external dirve as the root partition and make a swap partition also on the external and you should be good to go
[02:42] <jrib> suicidolt: like dropbox, you don't need it if you don't want it
[02:43] <suicidolt> why is my sound icon attached to an email icon? I don't want the email icon
[02:43] <ubuntun00b> eamon: What's a good size for a swap partition?
[02:44] <eamon> ubuntun00b: 1-2X your RAM
[02:44] <mickster04> suicidolt: it's part of the notifications applet, i dunno if you can remove it (which you should be able to) but i think you could also remove the notifications and add the volume control back

[02:47] <eamon> no need for sudo
[02:47] <ubuntun00b> eamon: I'm in the "allocate drive space" menu. So to get to the partition for the swap do I right click "change" and then I'm in the "Edit a partition" menu

[02:48] <eamon> ubuntun00b: yes, edit it and make it the size you want. 2000MB is a good size for swap.

[02:52] <eamon> ubuntun00b: type in 2000MB or 2000M and see what happens
[02:52] <suicidolt> um...how do I undo that, that just made my ubuntu really ugly trism
[02:52] <trism> suicidolt: just install it again, sudo apt-get install indicator-messages;
[02:52] <eamon> R1za: what's your language, you're hard to understand?
[02:53] <ubuntun00b> eamon:with the mb or m? it won't let me use letters

[02:53] <astley> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/541620network manager wont accept passwords on the ralink 5390 chipset, has there been a fix for this yet?
[02:54] <mickster04> astley: it would mention if there was a fix
[02:54] <eamon> ubuntun00b: 3222 will be fine if it wont let you do other options
[02:54] <astley> mickster:got you
[02:55] <mickster04> AStyx: confirmed means it has been noticed and is definitly a bug, if it was fixed it would say so, or fix available if it hadn't made it into canon
[02:55] <mickster04> AStyx: sorry wrong nick
[02:55] <eamon> ubuntun00b: in the end it should look like this |-----------boot/477GB----------||-swap/2g-|
[02:55] <ubuntun00b> eamon: Hypathetically, if I screw up formatting my external, I could always go back and fix the size of the partition right? I'm at the "last chance to go back" screen
[02:55] <eamon> ubuntun00b: yes
[02:56] <eamon> you can always do it again/resize
[02:57] <eamon> if it's letting you go forward then you have a boot and a swap, your internal is unmounted everythings on the external, you're good to go ubuntun00b

[02:59] <luckyone> hello all, I am running 10.10, but my system still uses the gdm login screen from 9.10. Anyone have any ideas why that is the case?
[02:59] <DasEi> johnhambl: no.. in which way ?
[02:59] <eamon> StepNjump: it tells the bot to spit out an explaination of the tab kkey functionality
[02:59] <eamon> watch
[02:59] <eamon> !tab
[03:00] <luckyone> totally minor - I mean it works fine, but I am just confused as to why it didn't get updated
[03:00] <johnhambl> like
[03:00] <johnhambl> say you did a software update
[03:00] <johnhambl> and it asks for root password
[03:00] <johnhambl> when I authenticate, the window doesnt do anything
[03:00] <johnhambl> doesnt go away till I close it
[03:00] <johnhambl> then it'll typically do what its suppost to
[03:00] <johnhambl> but not always
[03:00] <DasEi> johnhambl: how did you install ?
[03:01] <visual1ce> hi
[03:01] <johnhambl> through windows been having issues with usb install
[03:01] <eamon> hi visual1ce
[03:01] <DasEi> johnhambl: wubi ?
[03:01] <visual1ce> how do i tell if im running a x64 version of mozilla?
[03:01] <francesco_> johnhambl, ...thru windows .. as in wubi ?
[03:01] <johnhambl> yeah I believe so
[03:01] <mickster04> !enter | johnhambl
[03:01] <visual1ce> hi eamon
[03:01] <eamon> visual1ce: mozilla --version
[03:01] <mickster04> visual1ce: about?
[03:01] <johnhambl> o_0
[03:02] <DasEi> johnhambl: weak machine ? too much load in the xp  host ? ram  ?
[03:02] <mickster04> johnhambl: or are you doing wubi?
[03:02] <johnhambl> wubi install
[03:02] <visual1ce> oops - i mean firefox
[03:02] <johnhambl> it installs but I have issues inside of ubuntu
[03:02] <DasEi> johnhambl: anyway, can also update from terminal
[03:02] <eamon> visual1ce: firefox --version

[03:02] <|Stygian|> greetings
[03:02] <johnhambl> true
[03:03] <francesco_> firefox --version wont tell u if it s 64 bit tho
[03:03] <eamon> francesco_: yes it will
[03:03] <wingdspur> no
[03:03] <francesco_> just tried it .. and it didnt
[03:03] <StepNjump> mickster04 the main menu was exactly what I needed. thank you very much
[03:03] <DasEi> johnhambl: wubi tends to make problems after some time, due to  ntfs' defragmentation
[03:03] <visual1ce> all i get is mozilla firefox 3.6.16pre
[03:03] <suicidolt> alright, that's good enough for now.  g'night everyone
[03:04] <visual1ce> im running ubuntu 10.10 x64
[03:04] <johnhambl> I assumed that
[03:04] <DasEi> rather use a virtual environment, better a dualboot, johnhambl

[03:05] <|Stygian|> awesome!
[03:05] <eamon> !offtopic > |Stygian|

[03:05] <luckyone> francesco_: sudo apt-cache showpkg firefox
[03:06] <luckyone> francesco_: you may not need to be root to do that
[03:06] <francesco_> its not for me luckyone
[03:06] <luckyone> francesco_: sorry

[03:07] <uabn93> Hello again, I fixed a sudo update-grub problem I had earlier so that I could try to fix the Ubuntu(10.10) splash/boot logo screen on startup. The splash screen looks like it has a really bad color bit and shows up with grainy purple and green pixels. How can I edit the resolution?
[03:08] <eamon> uabn93: have you looked at the grub2 guide?
[03:08] <visual1ce> im having a problem running java applets for coursework. i have the sun jre installed along with the plugin enabled in browser. i run the java test on the sun site and it works fine and simple applets that report the plugin version work
[03:08] <visual1ce> i've tried ff 3.6, 4. beta and chrome
[03:08] <visual1ce> all with the same result
[03:08] <eamon> what's the probelm visual1ce?
[03:08] <visual1ce> one applet i get an error but the other just seems wonky
[03:08] <luckyone> visual1ce: is it your code?
[03:08] <ubuntun00b> eamon: This is taking a long time, how long does it usually take?
[03:09] <eamon> ubuntun00b: is there a progress bar? If it's reformatting your drive it takes a while. Resizing takes even longer.
[03:09] <bastidrazor> uabn93: add something to the effect of GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x32   to /etc/default/grub   ..edit to your resolution
[03:10] <visual1ce> theyre not my applets - theyre on the course website...
[03:10] <eamon> ubuntun00b: can you hear noises coming from your hard drive?
[03:10] <bastidrazor> uabn93: of course you'll need to update-grub once done editing that file.
[03:10] <eamon> visual1ce: if it's a plugin problem (java plugin) try updating the plugin.
[03:11] <ubuntun00b> eamon: there's a circle with a spinning thing inside, but no progress bar
[03:11] <uabn93> Yes, but the guide said "GRUB_GFXMODE" only applied to grub and not the operating system boot resolution. I tried 1280x1024x16 but nothing happened.
[03:11] <eamon> ubuntun00b: that's ok, can you hear it doing stuff to your hard drive?
[03:11] <francesco_> uabn93, see my private message
[03:12] <eamon> It sounds llike it's working uabn93, let it run its course
[03:12] <visual1ce> i have the latest version running... is there a way i can debug an applet?
[03:12] <visual1ce> a web applet
[03:12] <visual1ce> i mean how do i go about getting this to work?
[03:12] <eamon> visual1ce: yes, run it through a debugger
[03:13] <eamon> visual1ce: are you a programmer?
[03:13] <bastidrazor> visual1ce: there may be errors logged in ~/.xsession-errors
[03:13] <ubuntun00b> eamon: I think I have one of the quiet ones it's a WD portable 500gb.
[03:13] <visual1ce> ive done very little programming
[03:13] <eamon> visual1ce: you don't have the skills to debug then
[03:13] <DasEi> uabn93: miss the tail off, the X16
[03:14] <eamon> ubuntun00b: yeah, it sounds like it's working
[03:14] <visual1ce> thanx bastidrazor and eamon
[03:15] <brophat> i believe that when i install ubuntu and select to encrypt home directory it will prompt me for like a key word that it uses to encrypt, my question is if you have any advice on how to choose that word
[03:16] <DasEi> brophat: yes and no..
[03:16] <brophat> DasEi i heard it has to be big
[03:16] <DasEi> brophat: it uses your general password, the user password, so no additional, and you can generate a password
[03:17] <Arisaka_Shrike> "subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2" is what I get when I try to install or remove using the Ubuntu Software center or the Synaptic Package Manager, and something about python-profiler. Any ideas? :S
[03:17] <_antant> can anyone tell me how I would go about updating some drivers (for ATI) through putty?
[03:17] <DasEi> brophat: depending on needs, tools like makepasswd are fine, but best is a pass you can have in head
[03:17] <brophat> DasEi ic so i have the option of just using my user password or generating a new password for the encryption?
[03:18] <DasEi> brophat: the former
[03:18] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: in terminal <<sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade>>
[03:18] <mickster04> _antant: see the above command, it may help :p
[03:18] <DasEi> brohat: else you want whole disk encryption via luks
[03:19] <rww> brophat: and whole-disk encryption requires using the alternate CD, not the LiveCD
[03:19] <DasEi> brophat: or just a container/partition with extra pass
[03:19] <Arisaka_Shrike> after sudo apt-get upgrade, I get "Setting up python-profiler (2.6.6-0ubuntu1) ...

[03:20] <MrPockets> click and keyboard go throgh, but doesn't show., It's a common issue, but i don't recall the resolution
[03:20] <DasEi> brophat: depends on your needs, luks is working fine, thou eats ressources
[03:20] <brophat> yeah nothing much for me just a home dir encrption would be good enough
[03:21] <brophat> but i would need a good pass for my user cause that is what it uses to encrypt from no?
[03:21] <MrPockets> ah, it's a Compi issue.
[03:21] <DasEi> brophat: yes
[03:21] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: ok, so your install of python-profiler broke, does it suggest you run something like sudo dpkg ****
[03:21] <MrPockets> compiz*

[03:22] <rww> brophat: yes
[03:22] <DasEi> brophat: \
[03:22] <brophat> ok that is cool cause i learned a trick where you make a sentence and just pull out vowels

[03:23] <BosInt> somebody help me ?
[03:23] <DasEi> !ask
[03:23] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: no, but normally it suggests sumat to do to try and fix the problem
[03:23] <Jordan_U> brophat: That doesn't make it harder to crack if the method gets at all popular, and certainly not if someone is targeting you specifically and knows you do this (because you've now said so in a public IRC channel).

[03:29] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: no i don't want that, i want the error message,
[03:29] <Arisaka_Shrike> oh, right, hang on
[03:29] <DasEi> Jordan_U: good a minute in #grub or fine with pm ?
[03:29] <DasEi> got, Jordan_U
[03:29] <Gryllida> Where do I submit a Debian package for review to get it appear in Ubuntu repositories?
[03:29] <_ohm> What does it mean when something is "in your PATH"?
[03:29] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: i knew that wouldn't work, so that error message is pointless to me -_-
[03:29] <grendal-prime> hey guys...ive been using virtualbox on my server..but im looking at kvm because it seems to handle thigns like server upgrades much better
[03:30] <Jordan_U> DasEi: Sure, I'd prefer #grub to a PM (assuming it's a grub related support question).
[03:30] <mickster04> grendal-prime: and your problem is?
[03:30] <grendal-prime> and...well sysetme shutdowns..and automatic starting of vms...but it looks like the management tools for kvm are a bit...well not so friendly
[03:30] <Arisaka_Shrike> mickster04: this is the only thing that it says after I sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade. http://paste.ubuntu.com/583159/
[03:31] <bastidrazor> _ohm: your PATH is a list of directories that hold binaries of applications on your box.
[03:31] <grendal-prime> compaired to like virtualbox that is.
[03:31] <grendal-prime> and are the vms compatable with one another?
[03:31] <grendal-prime> iwould think they were..but...well you know  not sure..
[03:32] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-profiler/+bug/644854
[03:32] <_ohm> bastidrazor, I'm trying to compile something and it says make sure "config" is in your path, so i did PATH=$PATH:/config, is this correct?
[03:32] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: is that what you have going on? the fix is also mentioned
[03:32] <grendal-prime> mickster04, you  use kvm?  what does the default tasksel give you in line of a management interface?
[03:33] <|Stygian|> please overlook the CTCP msg. It was a misunderstood kvirc command. (my apologies)
[03:33] <mickster04> no i don't but you didn't give us a problem
[03:33] <grendal-prime> management tools.
[03:34] <grendal-prime> are there any decient ones for setting up vlan, ha, clustering
[03:34] <grendal-prime> im talking for kvm that is.
[03:34] <Arisaka_Shrike> mickster04: But I don't think I have a different version of Python installed. Do you know a way to search for one? (hang on, it also says that python-profiler could fail to install if Python 2.7 isn't installed)
[03:35] <bastidrazor> _ohm: you added that to your .bashrc?  and it would be export PATH="/config:$PATH"
[03:35] <Arisaka_Shrike> mickster04: But when I type python --version in the console, it says "Python 2.7.1".
[03:35] <sacarlson> _ohm: I don't think so, normally you cd /to/path/of/source  then ./configure; make
[03:35] <Gryllida> Hello.
[03:35] <bastidrazor> _ohm: is /config a valid directory?
[03:35] <mickster04> Arisaka_Shrike: i don't know how to solve your problem sorry :/
[03:35] <_ohm> bastidrazor, no i was using it as an example, this is what I'm trying to do currently http://ascendwiki.cheme.cmu.edu/Freesteam
[03:36] <_ohm> bastidrazor, I see this line, "# install ASCEND somewhere on your system, and make sure that 'ascend-config' is in your PATH. " and i have no idea what that means, and it isn't working haha
[03:37] <bastidrazor> _ohm: is ascend-config in your PATH?  type which ascend-config  :do you get a directory or returns you to prompt?
[03:38] <_ohm> bastidrazor, I get a directory. I did PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/ascend-config
[03:38] <_ohm> and i get that directory
[03:38] <bastidrazor>  _ohm /usr/local/bin should already be in your $PATH by default
[03:39] <bastidrazor> _ohm: and with those results you have ascend-config in your $PATH. you can move on to the next step.
[03:39] <_ohm> bastidrazor, yeah it is, I thought this guide wanted me to do that though
[03:39] <_ohm> I get a compiling error, I think that's the problem
[03:40] <bastidrazor> _ohm: the guide is just getting you to double check.
[03:40] <_ohm> oh, great now I have no idea what the problem is
[03:40] <_ohm> haha

[03:43] <lament> hello, i'm trying to install ubuntu 10.10 from a cd on a macbook4,1 following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook4-1/Maverick . The instructions say that to enable AirPort I need to enable an additional driver for BCM4328. But I don't have any additional drivers.
[03:44] <lament> When i went to System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers, it actually tried to access the network to search for them.
[03:44] <lament> do i have to connect wired first to get the drivers?
[03:44] <corinth> Hi channel. I want to *upgrade* my Firefox 3.X install to 4.0. Upgrade - as in overwrite. How can I do this?

[03:44] <lament> i see thanks
[03:45] <edbian> lament, yes
[03:45] <syrinx_> corinth: apt-get update firefox
[03:46] <edbian> corinth, Just download the firefox 4 from the website, remove firefox the package, and make a symlink to firefox4 in /usr/local/bin
[03:46] <corinth> syrinx_, Is the 4.0 RC2 in the repo? Else, how would this work?
[03:46] <edbian> syrinx_, That won't bring in firefox5
[03:46] <edbian> firefox4*
[03:46] <edbian> corinth, firefox4 is not in the repo.  See my previous post.  I can help more if you need it.

[04:09] <DasEi> StepNjump: gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc

[04:09] <edbian> galamar, I can wait.
[04:09] <DasEi> PATH=$PATH:whatever your path is here
[04:09] <DasEi> export PATH
[04:09] <bastidrazor> DasEi: wouldn't you edit the users .bashrc and not the global one..
[04:10] <StepNjump> DasEi: Thanks but what do you mean two lines^
[04:10] <DasEi> StepNjump: watch last three lines, mind bastid as per user

[04:12] <edbian> galamar, The firmware is loaded and working correctly.  What does sudo iwlist scan do?
[04:12] <edbian> galamar, Does it show you networks?
[04:13] <b1lly> for some reason
[04:13] <b1lly> i had my dual monitor (extended) working fine
[04:14] <b1lly> and i downloaded my ati drivers or w/e
[04:14] <galamar> edbian, no it dont show networks just says disconnected. 2 seconds on the sudo iwlist scan.
[04:14] <b1lly> and now it wont let me disable same image ina ll monitor
[04:14] <DasEi> StepNjump: getting by ? if you just want a app to be found , put it in /usr/bin or in the already existing others
[04:15] <galamar> edbian, wlan0 no scan results
[04:15] <dave_cave10-10> hows ubuntu as a domain controller? any pros or cons off the bat?
[04:15] <b1lly> when i do it triggers an error
[04:15] <Architx> not that i am impatience, but i need to go, so i ll ask later again when i have more time. Thanks in advance

[04:15] <edbian> galamar, sudo ifup wlan0
[04:15] <edbian> galamar, Then try sudo iwlist scan again
[04:16] <iTails|Installin> Hello, sorry I've been in the channel so long. I am having an issue with installing my wireless adapter driver on my desktop via Ubuntu 10.04. This is a fresh install. I have the disk from ASUS which has the linux drivers, but I don't know how to install them. I was hoping you guys would be able to help me out. Much appreciated.
[04:17] <galamar> edbian, ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0
[04:17] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: what type of file ?
[04:17] <StepNjump> DasEi, I know but what I am trying to do is to create ln with more familiar names than gnome-longname-that_I_will_never_remember to something simpler like: something_I_will_remember but would like to put them in my documents folder so when I back up my system, all my ln's will be readily available for backup.. That is the reason why
[04:17] <edbian> galamar, can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file   (the problem is in here) :)
[04:18] <b1lly> i installed my ati drivers and it bugged out
[04:18] <lvyiwang> hi, everyone!
[04:18] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: well, the folder it's in is a tar.gz
[04:18] <edbian> b1lly, Just remove them
[04:19] <b1lly> how, im new to ubuntu
[04:19] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: I wanted to try to run it in Terminal, but I couldn't figure it out.
[04:19] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: so lets have a closer look , open aterminal
[04:19] <b1lly> i clicked something and it i just clicked install lol
[04:19] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: okay
[04:19] <edbian> b1lly, What driver did it install?  fglrx ?
[04:19] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: mkdir asus
[04:19] <speedrunnerG55> when i login is says david but my username is douglas
[04:19] <b1lly> idk i didnt even look tbh
[04:20] <speedrunnerG55> how can i fix this
[04:20] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: driver is on disk ?
[04:20] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: yes
[04:20] <edbian> b1lly, what is the output of lsmod | grep fglrx   ?
[04:20] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: left click, copy + paste in your new asus folder
[04:20] <b1lly> fglrx 2523725  100
[04:21] <edbian> b1lly, That means you installed fglrx.  sudo apt-get purge fglrx
[04:21] <edbian> b1lly, that command will remove it.
[04:21] <b1lly> is that a list of my drivers?
[04:21] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, then repeat the same command?
[04:21] <galamar> edbian, www.pastebin.com/zieaeevz
[04:21] <speedrunnerG55> help?
[04:22] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: cd asus && ls                                       , file there now
[04:22] <edbian> b1lly, lsmod lists all the modules that are currently being used.  (linux calles drivers modules) so yes.
[04:22] <edbian> b1lly, grep just filters the list to show only things with 'fglrx' in the name
[04:22] <edbian> galamar, reading...
[04:22] <DasEi> iTails|Installin:  file there now ?
[04:22] <edbian> galamar, This is blank?
[04:22] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, now it recognizes the folder, now what do I do?
[04:22] <galamar> edbian, thats what i thought
[04:22] <b1lly> do you type it like this
[04:23] <b1lly> lsmod | grep fglrx
[04:23] <DasEi> iTails|Installin:  copy the tarball from cd into that dir
[04:23] <speedrunnerG55> help
[04:23] <edbian> galamar, haha, did you type in right?  gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[04:23] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, i recognized the folder and then it says "Is: command not found"
[04:23] <speedrunnerG55> my username isnd what it shows when i login
[04:23] <speedrunnerG55> how can i fix that
[04:23] <edbian> b1lly, lsmod lists them all.  lsmod | grep fglrx will show the rows that have fglrx in them.
[04:23] <speedrunnerG55> isnt
[04:24] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: ls = lower LS
[04:24] <b1lly> what does grep stnad for
[04:24] <edbian> b1lly, After you remove the package (sudo apt-get purge fglrx) restart the machine
[04:24] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: "Is: command not found"
[04:24] <edbian> b1lly, It doesn't stand for anything.  It's a great name on it's on I guess.  It filters the output of lsmod
[04:25] <Muddflaps> Hey gang, here's my situation, maybe someone can help. I have the Creative XFI Xtreme (which uses the Audigy chipset and has issues with ALSA) so I went full on OSS4. Sound is currently coming through pcm1, which is correct. Thing is, sound will sometimes work, sometimes not. BUT, I found out that if I go to say, shoutcast.com for example, and get a stream playing and mute it, I have no problems. I guess what I'm saying is t
[04:25] <Muddflaps> hat for it to work properly 100%, PCM1 will need to stay "open", since it seems like it's closing and opening and that's causing the sound to sometimes work and sometimes not.
[04:25] <galamar> edbian, there was only 2 linesin the file..... www.pastebin.com/ziEAeeVz........... i didnt know if the caps mattered
[04:25] <edbian> b1lly, You can grep anything though.  Like a file,  grep banana somefile.txt    will show all the lines of somefile.txt that contain 'banana'
[04:25] <b1lly> and what about apt-get
[04:25] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: ls in terminal not found ?
[04:26] <b1lly> can i grep *.txt
[04:26] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: yeah.
[04:26] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: I am thinking it might be a bad install, but not sure. I think i'll download the 10.10 ISO and burn it to a disk.
[04:26] <edbian> galamar, make it look like this: http://pastebin.com/WVLv1viC
[04:26] <ubuntun00b> Ok, I need some help. I've been trying to resize part of my external hard drive to make it a swap file. This is taking a very long time. I'm carving out only a few gigs. There is no status bar, just that circular spinning thing that goes clockwise.
[04:27] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: have you got wired inet on it ?
[04:27] <galamar> edbian, sweet 2 minutes
[04:27] <b1lly> i'm going to restart my pc brb
[04:27] <edbian> galamar, Then restart networking: sudo service network(ing) restart    (I'm not sure about the ing)
[04:27] <mrdeb> ubuntun00b: why
[04:27] <edbian> galamar, I have to go!  Any more questions?
[04:27] <voss749> unity looks goofy
[04:27] <b1lly> edbian: shut down pc or restart?
[04:27] <edbian> b1lly, Is there a difference?
[04:27] <ubuntun00b> mrdeb: So I can have ubuntu on an external hard drive
[04:28] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: no, unfortunately my ethernet controller went out on this motherboard. This PC is old. Pentium 4 2.8GHz, 512MB DDR 400MHz, ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro AGP (256MB Overclocked)
[04:28] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: if so (or just the box you're typing on here): sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:28] <DasEi> so no
[04:28] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: nope.
[04:29] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: so that might not work, because if it's not just a module, but a compile, we need additional stuff, no old nic lying around ?
[04:30] <edbian> galamar, ??  I have to go
[04:30] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: I'm not sure what a "nic" is
[04:30] <DasEi> network-card
[04:31] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: No, I had bought a PCI network card off newegg, but it was DOA. I just have the worst luck with wireless adapters. lol
[04:31] <edbian> iTails|Installin, network interface card = nic
[04:31] <edbian> iTails|Installin, network interface controller actually.  According to wikipedia
[04:31] <galamar> edbian, yes
[04:31] <edbian> galamar, I have to go.  Any last minute questions?
[04:32] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: if not supported nativly, you'll probably need additional stuff, well we can have a glance at that thingy least:
[04:32] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: yeah, just a sec
[04:32] <galamar> edbian, i get unkown instance for networking................. and unknown service for network........
[04:32] <edbian> galamar, Just restart then.  Easier than trying to figure out the command ;)
[04:32] <edbian> galamar, Have a good night!  I have to go
[04:33] <galamar> can anyone else pick up where he left me if i still need help?
[04:34] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320049&Tpk=ASUS%20USB%20N10
[04:34] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: That's the adapter I had bought.
[04:34] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: in terminal you are in asus dir now ? ls should show the ~tar.gz, let's assume it's there:
[04:35] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: yeah im there
[04:35] <voss749> itails what brand is the wireless card?
[04:35] <iTails|Installin> voss749: ASUS
[04:35] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: tar -xvf *tar.gz ,
[04:35] <DasEi> does it extract ?
[04:35] <voss749> itails, I know this sounds crazy, but use tp-link their wireless cards are atheros based
[04:36] <galamar> okay after rebooting it says device not managed. in the wireless notification area.
[04:36] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: "tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory" "tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now"
[04:36] <ubuntun00b> Ok so I'm in the middle of resizing a partition on an external. I open up GParted and it says "0 operations pending" but I started resizing 2 hours ago and nothing ever said I was finished.
[04:37] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: look in gui , was it a .tar.gz  file ?
[04:37] <voss749> Most people havent heard of Tp-link but they are a good chinese brand
[04:37] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: Yep.
[04:38] <voss749> All TP-LINK cards that I know of work with linux out of the box
[04:38] <timboy> I need help getting three monitors set up with my ati card. Works in windows fine but can't get it to work in ubuntu. ati settings manager says I need to restart to apply settings but then defaults to mirrored no matter what I change.
[04:38] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: Would it hurt to extract everything out of the tar.gz and put it in the folder?
[04:38] <DasEi> iTails|Installin:  so seems it's not in asus folder ,  can you navigate there by gui ? right-click, extract
[04:39] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, i extracted the folder
[04:39] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: go back to terminal
[04:40] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: cd ~/asus
[04:40] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: ./configure
[04:40] <DasEi> does a thing ?
[04:40] <b1lly> so dumb of me to delete my gfx driver flgrx
[04:40] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: "base: ./configure: No such file or directory
[04:41] <Loopback> wassup guy? can i share a webcam over a local network?
[04:41] <speedrunnerG55> help
[04:41] <voss749> itails, why mess with a wireless card that doesnt have drivers already in the kernel?
[04:41] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: there are .sh files within the folder, would I have to run chmod?
[04:41] <b1lly> how come i cant see
[04:41] <speedrunnerG55> my username is different than what it shows me when i log in
[04:41] <b1lly> alist of people that are in this irc chat
[04:41] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: so  semms no compile, really, w/o it's like a crystal ball, either a runfile or a module, hmm, sh files
[04:42] <iTails|Installin> voss749: I went cheap with a wireless, thought it would be easy, but I guess you get what you pay for, lol.
[04:42] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: theres a runwpa file in here too
[04:42] <voss749> itails, tp-link is cheaper and works correctly
[04:43] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: looks fine to me, though I don't that model, but without inet I can gather info very hard only
[04:43] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: would there be a way to somehow grab updates via Windows XP? I have XP on the other HDD.
[04:44] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: you get mad by typing all that in, doing something in the dark can bork system and not unlikely a update would/might fix things already, an err ls is a basic comand
[04:44] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: no
[04:44] <b1lly> is there a way to automate ubuntu to automatically go on standby or something after x time
[04:44] <SealedWithAKiss> Random I know, but does anybody know what the default web root for IIS 6.0 is?
[04:45] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, so I guess im pretty screwed in terms of getting this hooked up wireless lol. At least until I can afford another wireless adapter.
[04:45] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: it works fine in XP and I've tried it on hackintosh (teehee), but Linux seems to be the only one that isnt supported, lol
[04:45] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: easiest would be wired net,like a usb to rj45 or such, and don't through out money for no need
[04:46] <DasEi> throw*
[04:46] <speedrunnerG55> help
[04:46] <galamar> anyone got more advice for the bcm4306 wireless issues?
[04:46] <speedrunnerG55> my login is different than what it shows me in the welcome screen
[04:47] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: give me , as last resort a minute, so I can search a database for it
[04:47] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: well, part of the reason i had bought the wireless adapter is because ethernet will not work at all. Even in Windows. I guess it's just my motherboard. Can't blame it, it's been around since 2003, lol.
[04:47] <speedrunnerG55> cow can i fix what it says in the welcome screen so it maches
[04:47] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright. :)
[04:47] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: laptop ?
[04:47] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: desktop
[04:47] <DasEi> so a used nick is 2 bucks, if at all
[04:48] <DasEi> faster all the way
[04:48] <YankDownUnder> galamar, I'll assume you've "un-blacklisted" the driver in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf => or that you've tried to run your "Hardware Drivers" utility to see if a driver is available to install for that wireless card?
[04:48]  * DasEi is in
[04:48] <DasEi> !hcl
[04:49] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, I'll head to my PC shop tomorrow after work and see if they have any used ones or new ones. I would prefer new tbh, but whatever gets this on the net. Thanks for your help. :D
[04:49] <iTails|Installin> voss749: I'll look and see if they have tp-link adapters there too.
[04:50] <galamar> yankdownunder, i have run the "hardware drivers" utility but i have not un-blacklisted yet
[04:50] <YankDownUnder> iTails|Installin, Um...if you can't get on the net via Windows, and can't get on the net using Ubuntu - what CAN you get on the net with?
[04:50] <iTails|Installin> YankDownUnder: I can get on via Windows
[04:50] <b1lly> i got a .zip file application that i need to extract and install
[04:50] <b1lly> is this an incorrect linux format?
[04:50] <iTails|Installin> YankDownUnder: and hackintosh, just not linux
[04:51] <YankDownUnder> iTails|Installin, Um...right...thought you said you couldn't....right oh...
[04:52] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: searched two lists, not listed, but pretty new and if asus anounces linux-able that 'll do.. yup, get a nic

[04:52] <Guest40478> grub config in puppy 520 says "the partition '/mnt/sda5/puppy520' is not linux'  ".  some one help
[04:52] <Kaldor> I'm having some issues with wireless (on ethernet right now).. I have been using Ubuntu for a few years with no issue with wireless. I rebooted today to find that wireless won't work at all. Made a forum post with some details ( http://goo.gl/3a8ii ).. any ideas?
[04:52] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: alright, will do. thanks. I am hoping that ASUS will release a new driver set, but seeing how they frequently switch up models, I doubt it's going to happen.
[04:53] <galamar> yankdownunder, how do i un-blacklist?
[04:53] <speedrunnerG55> how can i cahnge my username
[04:53] <Kaldor> tried using rfkill and rmmod to find the issue to no avail
[04:53] <DasEi> iTails|Installin: if you're lucky it just works after some completition of the install
[04:53] <YankDownUnder> galamar, Look for the driver in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf => uncomment the blacklisted driver, reboot. Try the "Hardware Drivers" utility again.
[04:54] <jsoft> Anybody here ever had problems with flash crashing on youtube often?
[04:54] <DasEi> speedrunnerG55: /nick NewNick
[04:54] <iTails|Installin> DasEi: well, i think i might try 10.10 and see if it's included in the installation. if not, oh well.
[04:54] <Guest40478> help.  grub config in puppy 520 says "the partition '/mnt/sda5/puppy520' is not linux'  ".
[04:54] <galamar> yankdownunder, so just remove the #?
[04:54] <Jordan_U> Guest40478: This is #ubuntu. We don't provide Puppy support here.
