[10:37] <hunahpu> liminal: fixing your problem can be difficult for not experienced users, you may try reinstalling as you don't have many stuff configured/saved as it is a fresh install; reinstalling xserver is not as trivial as reinstalling a regular application
[10:37] <ravenkhan> hello
[10:37] <liminal> reinstalling the whole thing?
[10:37] <ravenkhan> anybody listening me?
[10:37] <hunahpu> liminal: you may try reinstalling that driver (from the ati's website) but I wouldn't be very optimistic
[10:38] <liminal> hunahpu: seems pointless as you say, I havent configured it much, ill just end up back where i started

[10:45] <sumax> I'm trying to fix my XP installation via Ubuntu, does anybody know of an NTFS chkdsk utility?
[10:45] <morrowyn> hi, im setting up a mail server, but can someone point me to a good dovecot/postfix/mysql how to, there seems little information on this topic
[10:45] <victor__> ok ty polter, I will keep looking ;)
[10:46] <moetunes> ravenkhan: you need to read the Xorg log to find out why you don't have that option
[10:46] <erUSUL> sumax: the one aviable for linex is very basic; ntfsfix from the ntfsprogs package
[10:46] <ravenkhan> i didnt get u moetunes
[10:47] <nilsma> ravenkhan: if you are trying to find where to change display/resolution then i think its in System > Preferences > Display
[10:47] <moetunes> ravenkhan: /var/log/Xorg.0.log   will tell why you don't get that option
[10:48] <ravenkhan> what option u telling me ? moetunes
[10:48] <ravenkhan> no nilsma i know that
[10:48] <moetunes> ravenkhan: to read the log
[10:48] <CQ> if I have a device in /etc/crypttab with noauto, how do I open it manually? does it still want all the info that's in /etc/crypttab in a sudo cryptsetup luksOpen command, or am I missing something?
[10:48] <sumax> erUSUL: I can't find that in the app centre :/
[10:49] <ravenkhan> i have only 2 options there
[10:49] <erUSUL> sumax: use synaptic
[10:49] <erUSUL> !info synaptic
[10:49] <erUSUL> !info ntfsprogs
[10:49] <ravenkhan> both below to the 1024x768
[10:51] <erUSUL> morrowyn: how to forge has some good how tos about that kind of setups
[10:52] <erUSUL> morrowyn: also #ubuntu-server
[10:52] <morrowyn> ok
[10:53] <harjot> how would i batch convert using inkscape?
[10:53] <linxeh> morrowyn: the ubuntu server guide is good
[10:54] <moetunes> harjot: man convert should give a clue
[10:54] <linxeh> harjot: I think you'll have to run inkscape from the command line
[10:54] <linxeh> moetunes: convert is imagemagick, not inkscape
[10:54] <moetunes> k
[10:54] <linxeh> harjot: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=820965 try this
[10:55] <linxeh>  (Depends what you want to convert of course, but it gives the principles)
[10:55] <konstantine> hello!
[10:56] <harjot> ok thanks
[10:56] <harjot> if i wanted to convert a whole folder?
[10:56] <linxeh> harjot: yeah, it shows how you can do that with a loop
[10:56] <linxeh>  for file in *.svg do; inkscape --blah $file; done
[10:56] <linxeh> etc
[10:56] <koeta> ..
[10:57] <harjot> ok thanks
[10:57] <linxeh> harjot: what do you want to convert to what ?
[10:57] <ravenkhan> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 771/671 PCIE VGA Display Adapter (rev 10)
[10:58] <moetunes> konstantine: you just ask your question in here :]
[10:58] <harjot> linxeh: png to svg
[10:58] <harjot> linxeh: ive got vector compatibke files
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> png to svg is like a weird conversion t do..
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> You Mean SVG (vector) to png (bitmapp) ?
[10:58] <harjot> but ive got an icon pack that doesnt work, cause it has a scalable folder with pngs and no svgs
[10:59] <harjot> so i want png to svg
[10:59] <harjot> bitmap to vecotr
[10:59] <linxeh> harjot: http://inkscape.modevia.com/inkscape-man.html#options
[10:59] <linxeh> not sure it does quite what you want though I guess - you can do this ok manually with the gui though ?
[11:00] <ravenkhan> can anyone help me?
[11:00] <harjot> linxeh: i think it works
[11:00] <ravenkhan> to achieve screen resolution of 1024x768
[11:01] <moetunes> ravenkhan: you need to at least tell the video card...
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  check the forums for your exact video card?   (you did mention it was some SiS  earlier)
[11:01] <moetunes> o
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> Ive never used a SIS or S3 brand cards. I know to avoide them
[11:02] <ravenkhan> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 771/671 PCIE VGA Display Adapter (rev 10)
[11:02] <moetunes> sis has poor support
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 771/671 PCIE VGA
[11:02] <ravenkhan> yeah
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> SiS is very poor in many ways.
[11:02] <ravenkhan> tell me about that
[11:02] <linxeh> harjot: hmm; you might not be able to script it all with inkscape I guess. how many do you need to convert ?
[11:02] <harjot> a folder
[11:03] <linxeh> yeah but that could be 10 icons or it could be a million
[11:03] <harjot> like you said before, wont something similar to this work? for file in *.svg do; inkscape --blah $file; done
[11:03] <harjot> about 50-100 icons
[11:03] <harjot> linxeh: not over 300
[11:03] <linxeh> yeah but it doesnt look like the inkscape command line has an export svg option
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  i know very little about those cards. Other then to suggest checking the forums
[11:04] <harjot> linxeh: really?
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  its possible 10.04 release may have some updates for it
[11:04] <messi92> if i copy the all the "/" directory to a dvd, and after ubuntu will break down, i will copy them on a ext filesystem from (this backup) dvd, the ubuntu will work or not ? (i have to backup all my systemlike that itis possible ? )
[11:04] <ravenkhan> i checked in 10/04 also
[11:05] <harjot> linxeh: no it doesnt support it
[11:05] <linxeh> harjot: apparently inkscape uses potrace to do the tracing, which has commandline and gui tools
[11:05] <ravenkhan> Dr_willis i tried on ubuntu 10.04 also
[11:05] <linxeh> harjot: http://potrace.sourceforge.net/
[11:05] <moetunes> ravenkhan: try googlrr.com/linux   and your your card and xorg.conf
[11:05] <uLinux> hi all
[11:06] <harjot> linxeh: ok
[11:06] <linxeh> harjot: potrace is in the repos, along with a potrace-gui package - give those a go :)
[11:06] <moetunes> s/googlrr/google
[11:06] <harjot> linxeh: any idea on this?  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-337820.html
[11:06] <erUSUL> messi92: no; it will not work all permissions and special atributes would be wrong
[11:06] <linxeh> harjot: yeah I read that - there is no -export-svg option
[11:06] <erUSUL> messi92: you have to use tar or cpio or some partition clonning software
[11:07] <ravenkhan> u saying to check me google.com?
[11:07] <harjot> linxeh: can i use theGdkPixbuf thing does that wwork?
[11:07] <linxeh> harjot: I think your best bet is to install potrace, and then do somehting like     for file in *.png; do potrace --svg $file; done
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> always a good idea to check google.
[11:07] <moetunes> !pm > ravenkhan
[11:08] <linxeh> harjot: thats just used for reading a raster image into memory; inkscape then calls potrace to trace the image into a scaleable file, and then exports it to svg or eps or whatever
[11:08] <harjot> linxeh: ok i will try thanks
[11:08] <micka> needs help on conflicting packages - not installing flashplugin-installer
[11:08] <ravenkhan> Dr_willis u asked me check forums?
[11:09] <ravenkhan> what kind of forums can u give me link?
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  i suggested its proberly going to have  better answers
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> !forums
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> The ubuntu forums.
[11:09] <messi92> erUSUL: are there backup softwares for Ubuntu ? (the remastersys does not wok for latest versions of ubuntu, i can not find simple software like remastersys . and i have to backup all my system as soon as i can).
[11:09] <ravenkhan> yeah tell me if you know some link of forums
[11:09] <moetunes> !backup
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> The bot just gave the url to the forums ravenkhan  -
[11:10] <erUSUL> messi92: like norton ghost ? sure clonezilla and partimage come to mind. there is g4u (ghost for unix)
[11:10] <ravenkhan> o
[11:10] <ravenkhan> ok
[11:10] <messi92> erUSUL: are tehy easy to use. (i am not a good linux user :( im waiting for 6 week to backup my system ... )
[11:11] <harjot> linxeh: i get t saying that png is not an input file type, you must use pnn pnm etc...
[11:11] <harjot> linxeh: png is invalid apparently
[11:11] <linxeh> harjot: ooh ok
[11:11] <linxeh> meh :)
[11:11] <harjot> should i rename or something
[11:11] <linxeh> sec
[11:11] <molchuvka> hello folks. My microphone is not working under ubuntu 9.04. I also have a partition with 9.10, how do I diagnoze mic work there on 9.10?
[11:11] <erUSUL> messi92: they use curses (console drawed) interfaces. not the most pretty but should be quite easy
[11:12] <messi92> erUSUL: i will try them. thank you!
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> harjot:  pnn and pnm are different image formats.. you dont just rename a png to be pnm
[11:13] <harjot> ok lol
[11:13] <harjot> i was being lazy
[11:13] <harjot> should i batch convert to pnn or something?
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> ages ago the use of pnn and pnm was common
[11:13] <linxeh> harjot: wait :)
[11:13] <harjot> from gimp??
[11:13] <molchuvka> i am a developer, I'd like to either implement or port driver to support my mic under 9.04
[11:13] <polter> renaming img to iso works so I can understand trying it
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> there would be gif2pnm     then pnm2Whatever tools
[11:13] <harjot> gimp
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> polter:  some times it works.. :)
[11:13] <TyanColte> howdy everybody, gots me a question

[11:14] <polter> TyanColte, hello, go ahead and ask
[11:14] <harjot> ive got a batch process plugin for gimp
[11:14] <harjot> i think i will just convert
[11:14] <molchuvka> how do i diagnoze that microphone is working under ubuntu 9.10? now googling this.
[11:15] <linxeh> harjot:      for file in *.png; basefile=`basename $file .png`.bmp; do convert $file $bmpfile; potrace --svg $bmpfile; done
[11:15] <linxeh> harjot: try that
[11:15] <harjot> ok
[11:15] <ravenkhan> SIS card any body screen resolution problem?
[11:15] <linxeh> harjot: it will convert to a bmp first (which potrace supports) then do the tracing, I hope
[11:15] <harjot> linxeh: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `basefile=`basename $file .png`.bmp'
[11:16] <harjot> what needs correcting?
[11:16] <linxeh> sec
[11:16] <linxeh> i missed out do
[11:16] <linxeh> harjot:      for file in *.png; do basefile=`basename $file .png`.bmp; convert $file $bmpfile; potrace --svg $bmpfile; done
[11:16] <TyanColte> ok, here's the situation, I've got compiz desktop enhancments enabled and i have desktop cube enabled with skydome, also i have transparent cube enabled to be about 40% transparent when the desktop is not being rotated so i can see the other desktops, but when it's like this the desktop icons become transparent also, i think it has something to do with nautilus drawing the desktop independantly and compiz is making the entire desktop t
[11:16] <TyanColte> ransparent, is there any way i can make the desktop background transparent with compiz and not the icons?
[11:17] <ravenkhan> Dr_willis can u tell me under whcih category i should look out

[11:18] <harjot> linxeh: invalid bmp file
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  theres proberly dozens of threads on SiS brand cards.
[11:18] <polter> TyanColte, wow, that a mighty good question :)
[11:18] <TyanColte> polter: isn't it? lol
[11:18] <ravenkhan> where please tell me
[11:19] <bazhang> TyanColte, have you tried in #compiz yet
[11:19] <baraka> sudo blkid
[11:19] <TyanColte> i didn't know there was a #compiz
[11:19] <Dr_Willis> ravenkhan:  near the top of the forum web site there should be a 'search' button or field.
[11:19] <linxeh> harjot: what if you change the .bmp in that line to .pbm ?
[11:20] <TyanColte> i'd've been there asking if that were the case LOL
[11:20] <harjot> ok
[11:20] <linxeh> harjot: if not, I'll install the two packages and get it working
[11:21] <harjot> linxeh: its sorta hanging on the line meanig it might be doing something?
[11:21] <linxeh> harjot: yeah, it should just hang there while it processes everything
[11:21] <harjot> linxeh: its doing it
[11:22] <linxeh> you might have to play with the options on potrace though I guess
[11:22] <sumax> Good day, it is me again. My windows XP installation has fcked up itself once more and now I want to install ubuntu. However, I have a 6gb RAR file I want to backup before, it doesnt fit on my usb unfortunately
[11:22] <sumax> Is there a quick way of opening RARs on a ubuntu live CD or can I split the file
[11:22] <linxeh> sumax: you can use split to break it into smaller chunks
[11:22] <linxeh> sumax: you can install unrar on the live CD if you need to yeah
[11:23] <sumax> okay thanks
[11:23] <ouyes> sorry how to write a msg to a person privately?
[11:23] <linxeh> if it was me I would split the file and back it up somewhere, then rejoin it
[11:23] <harjot> linxeh: all pbms are blackand white
[11:23] <linxeh> and check it works first :p
[11:23] <polter> sumax, you could also just create a partition and move the file

[11:25] <harjot> linxeh: ok
[11:25] <linxeh> harjot: sorry, I dont use these image formats often and cant remember which is whcih - I think ppm is colour, pbm is mono maybe

[11:32] <linxeh> harjot: I've just had a read - it seems that inkscape does colour quantisation, exports each colour, traces it, then combines the images
[11:32] <belus> Dr_Willis,  It's the indicator-applet....I have empathy installed and a person just messaged me...and instead of one line in the indicator applet i get 6 of the same person.

[11:33] <andra> whats going on daiver?

[11:34] <egalia> I would like to print some handouts for our lucid lynx party. do you know where I'll find the final artwork for lucid lynx?
[11:34] <daiver> And there is problem while installing drivers for it.
[11:34] <daiver> So I tried upgrade m
[11:34] <daiver> So I tried upgrade Ubuntu to 9.10
[11:34] <linxeh> harjot: bottom line, it doesnt look particularly simple. you would be able to do it with imagemagick convert to do the quantising for you, then you could probably extract the color information from the .ppm file (it's just text basically) and then use convert again with that colour information as a mask, generate a bunch of svgs, and use some tool to combine the individual svgs I guess
[11:35] <TyanColte> anbody?

[11:47] <micka> Dr_Willis, do you know where i can find the last version of flash because it's seems that mine is a little bit old : adobe-flashplugin_<IP_ADDRESS>.orig.tar.gz
[11:47] <polter> sumax, well if you have 7zip you could just right-click the file and choose compress, choose 7z as format and then choose to split into multiple files
[11:47] <polter> that's another possibility, but that compresses too
[11:48] <micka> where i can find the last version of flash ?
[11:48] <polter> micka, adobe.com/products/flashplayer ?
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> micka:  let the package manager handle flash and the updates. dont try to install the latest from adobe.
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> micka:  you are just asking to break things worse. :)

[11:49] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  find is its  own command.. note the use of the ` ` marks.
[11:49] <sumax> You know what? I'll just format over that crappy NTFS file system and install ubuntu, see you in 20 minutes :)
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  its not a cat option. Its a stand alone command
[11:49] <sumax> Should I stick with 9.10 or use lucid?
[11:49] <polter> micka, yeah it should work still though, Adobe Flash is a binary blob and won't mess with your dependencies
[11:50] <Dr_Willis> sumax:  flip a coin. :)
[11:50] <CQ> napsy: apt-cache  search javadoc

[11:50] <polter> Rahim, what's the package?
[11:50] <sumax> Okay, see you then
[11:51] <napsy> CQ: dit exactly that and didn't found anything interesting

[11:52] <andra> belus,  did you accomplish what you were wanting?
[11:52] <ouyes> Dr_Willis, what a shame, i have been running ubuntu since 8.04 but i do not know some bash basics
[11:53] <crid> oh guys this 10.04 is amazing.
[11:53] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  time to spend an hr learnngs ome bash then
[11:53] <belus> andra,  Yes:)
[11:53] <polter> micka, http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html
[11:53] <polter> it's a tar-file though so it's manual installation or nothing
[11:54] <ouyes> Dr_Willis, how to start? with the help on the left top?
[11:54] <andra> guys I am currently operating ubuntu on a Gateway M-275 tablet pc with one gig of ram and an integrated 64 MB GPU,   other than some sound issues  I have to admit this little tablet pc really hums away in  linux
[11:54] <muzhganm> hello all, can you tell me what can be a good open source project for a university??
[11:54] <CQ> ouyes: google for bash tutorial and examples...
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  google for 'bash tutorials' or 'bash training'  or check the 100000+ other sites mentioned at delicious.com under the bash tags :)
[11:54] <andra> belus,  glad to hear it
[11:55] <CQ> muzhganm: the linux kernel is a great open source project for universities
[11:55] <polter> muzhganm, can you be a bit more specific? what are you looking for?
[11:55] <belus> andra,  Thanks andra, hmm I got to learn a lot...:D
[11:55] <morrowyn> andra good to hear, you might want to check out xcfe as a window manager instead of gnome, to make it more lightweight
[11:55] <muzhganm> in networking field , but open source
[11:56] <morrowyn> ( or look at xubuntu, if you plan a reinstall)
[11:56] <andra> being a tablet p.c. with a  stylus based input system, I was very pleased to  witness for myself just  ho"tablet" functionality has come  in linux. But does anyone know of any tablet "add-on" features I  might be able to implement?
[11:56] <andra> morrowyn,  thats precisely what I was  hoping for
[11:56] <micka> polter, ./libflashplayer.so
[11:56] <micka> Segmentation fault
[11:56] <ouyes> Dr_Willis, yes google( banned in my place) thanks
[11:56] <morrowyn> hmmm, i always had problem with my wacom and linux
[11:56] <micka> polter, thx anyway
[11:56] <muzhganm> polter, in networking area
[11:56] <morrowyn> but that was like at least 5 years ago
[11:56] <polter> micka, you need to replace your old flashplayer with the new one
[11:57] <andra> morrowyn,  and would I still be able to run  pretty much  all of the same programs which I can  run  now? I am assuming the  lighter weight interface would allcate more system resources to the more important  system process etc...
[11:57] <Dr_Willis> micka:   .so is liek a .lib file in windows. you dont run it
[11:57] <polter> muzhganm, networking.. hmm, nagios?
[11:57] <Dr_Willis> micka:  is flash working now? if so - i would leave it a lone.
[11:57] <micka> Dr_Willis,  i see thx
[11:57] <morrowyn> yeah, xfce is just a window manager, see it as a shell hosting all your applications when it comes to gui stuff
[11:57] <muzhganm> polter, a bit advanced than nagios
[11:57] <andra> I get a sneaking feeling that my lack of understanding of the  linux system is causeing me to waste alot of system resources on  things which I really  do not  need,  but that's all  part of re learning  I suppose
[11:58] <muzhganm> it has been already done by someone else
[11:58] <polter> micka, adobe hasn't made it easy for us to get 64bit flash yet so something like http://www.ubuntugeek.com/adobe-flash-player-10-for-64-bit-linux-released-and-ubuntu-installation-instructions.html would probably do the trick
[11:58] <daiver> can anybody help me with installing RIVA TNT2 drivers?
[11:58] <morrowyn> so photoshop, firefox will still run, they just get a different title bar
[11:58] <micka> Dr_Willis,  ys it's working and i will listen you ;)

[11:59] <micka> polter, Dr_Willis it's work now
[11:59] <morrowyn> i dont think nvidia supports tnt2 in their binary drivers
[11:59] <micka> thans everyone

[12:02] <crid> morrowyn, I did chmod +x already
[12:02] <Migi32> hey everyone, is it possible without much trouble to make 10.04 look exactly like 9.10 looks now?
[12:02] <crid> this is weird
[12:02] <andra> daiver,  also paste the contents of lspci to pastebin
[12:02] <daiver> polter, riva tnt 2, NVIDIA-Linux-x86-71.86.13-pkg1
[12:02] <morrowyn> daiver, just use the nv drivers that comes with xorg
[12:02] <morrowyn> see if that works
[12:02] <ravenkhan> hey please tell me how can i make a live usb of ubuntu 10.04
[12:03] <daiver> morrowyn, there no drivers for my card - rva tnt 2
[12:03] <andra> there is a wiki for that raven
[12:03] <polter> daiver, it's been a while since I installed an nvidia driver manually, but I remember shutting down the graphical user interface and running the installation from console
[12:03] <melm> how i can add gpg key without using the terminal
[12:03] <andra> daiver, could you please  get with me when you have pasted those  outputs?
[12:03] <CQ> ravenkhan: don't bother, just use http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[12:03] <morrowyn> daiver, yes they are, in your xorg.conf  you need to specify that,   nv is the std default one, the nvidia is the binary from nvidia themself
[12:03] <ravenkhan> andra where?
[12:03] <Migi32> hey everyone, is it possible without much trouble to make 10.04 look exactly like 9.10 looks now?
[12:04] <andra> daiver,  I think we can get accellertation at least for you
[12:04] <andra> ravenkhan,  to pastebin
[12:04] <ravenkhan> pastebin?
[12:04] <daiver> polter, yes, it is, but I've got these http://paste.ubuntu.com/421594/
[12:04] <ouyes> Migi32, why you want that ?
[12:04] <andra> ravenkhan,  pastebin is a paste  service  which allows  us to share large outputs without being rude and flooding the  chan
[12:05] <ravenkhan> CQ can u tell me using usb startup disk which is already installed by default
[12:05] <Migi32> ouyes, because I have taste
[12:05] <Migi32> 10.04's purple looks awful

[12:05] <ravenkhan> andra i am not getting u
[12:05] <ravenkhan> what u aying
[12:05] <ravenkhan> saying
[12:05] <morrowyn> could be that you get a compile error on the nvidia module
[12:06] <morrowyn> did you : apt-get install build-essentials
[12:06] <andra> daiver,  could you please now paste the contents of glxinfo  to pastebin
[12:06] <morrowyn> and installed the apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[12:06] <auska> tomorrow i will have to update a lot of pictures (100 or perhaps 200)  to blogspot, facebook and picasa. There is any possibility to make it easy, making the computer do it alone or only a part of that work perhaps?
[12:06] <andra> as well as the framecount from the glxgears command
[12:07] <daiver> morrowyn, http://paste.ubuntu.com/421606/
[12:07] <andra> ravenkhan,  my apologies if I am consistently being unclear,  I am relatively new to IRC,  I do appreciate  your kindness
[12:07] <andra> and your help ^_^
[12:07] <ravenkhan> no problem dear
[12:07] <andra> daiver thanks
[12:08] <Sachse_Siechtum> Hello I'm looking at this page right now (http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/build/xubuntu/all )
[12:08] <Sachse_Siechtum> What does netboot mean?
[12:08] <ravenkhan> this is my itself 1st day on IRC
[12:08] <ravenkhan> i am too new
[12:08] <CQ> Sachse_Siechtum: netboot is usually a small image that installs teh rest of the needed files for the system from teh network
[12:09] <ravenkhan> CQ
[12:09] <andra> daiver, could you type      glxinfo at the terminal and paste the output  please to pastebin?
[12:09] <andra> i think you pasted part of a xorg.conf file
[12:10] <Sachse_Siechtum> CQ, so its different from a normal install iso?
[12:10] <Sachse_Siechtum> oh wait..
[12:10] <polter> daiver, morrowyn nvidia binary driver need kernel-headers?
[12:10] <Sachse_Siechtum> I see desktop install...argh so many bugs...
[12:10] <polter> I seem to remember something about that
[12:11] <morrowyn> thats what his log mentions on the error
[12:11] <daiver> andra, http://paste.ubuntu.com/421609/
[12:11] <djbeenie> has anyone used vmware workstation and virtual box in Ubuntu?  can anyone recommend performance wise which is better?
[12:11] <polter> morrowyn, oh ok, chat scrolled past a bit too fast
[12:11] <morrowyn> line 54
[12:11] <morrowyn> but line 79 menstions: Please see the file
[12:11] <morrowyn>        '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log'   and i asked if he could paste that
[12:11] <CQ> djbeenie: I've only used virtualbox and never looked back... works great for me. Probably depends on the application you're running
[12:12] <mrwes> djbeenie, the VB Box from the web site is pretty good
[12:12] <morrowyn> becasue that one will tell him why the installation failed, prolly a compile error due to missing kernel-headers and what not
[12:12] <polter> morrowyn, yeah that was always my problem
[12:13] <morrowyn> :)
[12:14] <auska> i have a problem tomorrow for X reasons, I have to upload 150 or 200 photos to facebook and picassa, there is any possibility to automated that work?
[12:14] <polter> auska, use Google Picasa to upload to Picasaweb?
[12:15] <mrwes> auska, doesn't Picasa have an auto sync feature?
[12:15] <quiritius> i need to run in gnome shortcuts the command: gconftool-2 --set --type=list --list-type=string /path_to_key ["`echo -e "text1\text2,text3\ttext4"`"] but it wont work. any help?
[12:15] <mrwes> polter, right
[12:16] <polter> auska, and F-Spot can export to a lot of different sites
[12:16] <polter> try that
[12:17] <auska> oqs, thanks i will take a look ;)
[12:17] <djbeenie> CQ, mrwes, I am currently using vmware workstation, thinking of trying out VB to see if any performance increase
[12:17] <morrowyn> man i miss the days of build-world on freebsd
[12:18] <polter> djbeenie, I've heard from people who do a lot more virtualization than me that VMware still is faster, but Virtualbox seem to make great progress for every release so I'ts probably a good idea to check it out
[12:20] <linxeh> I use vmware at the moment because it is almost impossible to buy virtualbox
[12:20] <S_A> Hi! How can I obtain digitally signed GMT date and time in my Ubuntu system ? NTP does not give RSA signed
[12:21] <linxeh> S_A: ntpdate -k ?
[12:21] <notebook> Kristof
[12:21] <polter> linxeh, ? why would you want to buy virtualbox?
[12:22] <linxeh> polter: to use it for anything other than personal use with USB support
[12:22] <linxeh> or with rdp support
[12:22] <polter> linxeh, oh I didn't think of that
[12:23] <polter> I guess it's up to Oracle now
[12:24] <appi_uppi> hi where should i discuss about feedparser
[12:24] <linxeh> at least oracle like selling you stuff I guess, more than sun seemed to
[12:25] <kristof78> Is there someone who can help me with a big Ubuntu server and Raid problem?
[12:25] <polter> appi_uppi, that's python right? in that case try #python
[12:25] <kristof78> I have a Ubuntu server
[12:25] <kristof78> with 160 GB  disk as /
[12:25] <appi_uppi> polter, i tried but dint work
[12:25] <kristof78> I have 3 X 2TB disks to create a RAID5
[12:26] <SwedeMike> kristof78: please write longer lines, it's muh much easier to read.
[12:26] <kristof78> but only the first disk is found by Ubuntu
[12:26] <polter> appi_uppi, what do you mean? you can't join #python?
[12:26] <erUSUL> how did you created the array ?
[12:26] <erUSUL> kristof78: ^
[12:26] <aprilhare> hey. i want to rename a bunch of files named donkey<number>.old to donkey<number>.new - can anyone show me a bash command that'll do it? i stumble around with something this simple (spoilt by amigaos/windows shell simplicity)
[12:26] <kristof78> This is because of the 2 TB limit and it could be solved by using GTP, but how
[12:27] <appi_uppi> polter, Well I could not find any solution there
[12:27] <polter> aprilhare, "rm donkey*.old"
[12:27] <aprilhare> polter, get stuffed.
[12:27] <kristof78> I didn't create the array yet because not all 3 disks can be found
[12:27] <polter> aprilhare, excuse me?
[12:27] <erUSUL> aprilhare: prename 's/\.old/\.new/'  donkey*.old
[12:27] <aprilhare> polter, you're excused. don't do it again.
[12:27] <polter> aprilhare, what did I do?
[12:28] <erUSUL> aprilhare: if number is a single digit or two you can use ? or ?? instead of the broader *
[12:28] <liminal> hello
[12:28] <munz> kristof78, where are u not seeing them? in system>admin>disk util? can u see all 3 in the bios?
[12:28] <SwedeMike> polter: you recommended him to delete the files, that's being an ass.
[12:28] <liminal> ive installed a hardware driver for my graphic card, which ubuntu detects
[12:28] <polter> whoa, sorry
[12:28] <polter> I completely just read it wrong
[12:28] <munz> are u doing sw raid or hardware?
[12:28] <liminal> but when I try to activate the driver it either hangs or gives me an error message
[12:28] <aprilhare> erUSUL, that didn't work
[12:28] <erUSUL> aprilhare: make a test with a copy of some files so you are sure it does the right thing
[12:29] <kristof78> i did sudo fdisk -l
[12:29] <polter> aprilhare, really sorry, I misread
[12:29] <kristof78> didn't check the bios yet
[12:29] <aprilhare> eryn_1983, that's what i tried
[12:29] <aprilhare> polter, np
[12:29] <kristof78> but normally they should be there
[12:29] <polter> I'll have to go stand in a corner in shame now :)
[12:29] <aprilhare> erUSUL even
[12:29] <SwedeMike> kristof78: if the drives aren't seen by the OS then it's nothing to do with any 2tb limit or gtp, sounds more like a controller issue.
[12:29] <liminal> Sorry, the Jockey backend crashed. Please file a bug at
[12:29] <kristof78> I've read that you can break the 2 TB limit by using GTP UID
[12:29] <erUSUL> aprilhare: it worked here
[12:30] <aprilhare> hang on fixed
[12:30] <liminal> Im getting this error when i try to activate my graphic card hardware driver
[12:30] <liminal> any ideas?
[12:30] <aprilhare> my test files were slightly different named :)
[12:30] <aprilhare> heh
[12:30] <aprilhare> thanks
[12:30] <brennoemanuel> #ubuntu-br
[12:30] <munz> check ur bios and make sure they are there first, is this hardware raid or software?
[12:30] <kristof78> SwedeMike how do you mean a controller problem, how do I check that?
[12:31] <kristof78> Software RAID
[12:31] <erUSUL> aprilhare: mkdir tmp/ && touch  tmp/donkey{0..99}.old && ls tmp/* && prename 's/\.old/\.new/'  donkey*.old && ls tmp/*
[12:31] <SwedeMike> kristof78: if the drives aren't detected at boot then you need to fault find that fact, sounds like a controller issue.
[12:31] <erUSUL> kristof78: if it is bios RAID you have to use dmraid
[12:31] <erUSUL> !fakeraid
[12:32] <SwedeMike> erUSUL: with dmraid the drives are still detected at boot afaik
[12:32] <aprilhare> erUSUL, thanks but it's done - why the /tmp/ stuff anyways?
[12:32] <liminal> Sorry, the Jockey backend crashed. Please file a bug at
[12:32] <kristof78> oke, thanks for the tips guys!! I'll check it again and try and try until this works because I really need this for my homeserver
[12:33] <liminal> on activating a hardware driver seems odd
[12:33] <red2kic> aprilhare: Testing purposes, I suppose.
[12:33] <erUSUL> aprilhare: it was just a test to show you that it really works
[12:33] <aprilhare> oh i already tested it :)
[12:33] <aprilhare> created test directory
[12:33] <aprilhare> with test files i generated
[12:33] <aprilhare> :)
[12:33] <erUSUL> aprilhare: i created a folder tmp/ full of files named lioke yoursa and renamed them
[12:33] <aprilhare> tis done anyways. thankyou :)
[12:33] <erUSUL> aprilhare: 100 files to be exact
[12:34] <aprilhare> erUSUL, a little bit excessive? :)
[12:34] <aprilhare> i tested with five files
[12:34] <erUSUL> kristof78: if it is a linux only machine i recommend you to not use BIOS raid but use linux software raid
[12:34] <aprilhare> at any rate, must continue. bbl
[12:36] <geek1d> can anybody help me fix my sound issue please! Sound is very low on ubuntu 9.10
[12:36] <polter> geek1d, have you checked sound settings? are all the levels turned up?
[12:36] <geek1d> polter, yes
[12:36] <mahisastra> tell me how to compress video in ubuntu
[12:36] <mahisastra> ?
[12:37] <mahisastra> i have .avi format videos
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> mahisastra:  you mean to .zip or somthing? or do you mean 'reencode' ?
[12:37] <erUSUL> mahisastra: use one of the many programs aviable to do that
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> !info reconstructor
[12:37] <mahisastra> i want to reduce its size
[12:37] <mahisastra> max size reduction
[12:37] <geek1d> any other suggestions ?
[12:37] <erUSUL> mahisastra: avidemux; winff; arista; handbrake; etc
 i want to reduce its size, my gf says that alot
[12:38] <mahisastra> using zip how much size will be reduced
[12:38] <SwedeMike> mahisastra: look into a script called "tablet-encode"
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> T_T:  shes refering to her credit card debt.
[12:38] <T_T> lol
[12:38] <Fudge> guys i have a restricted codec script that failed due to machine locking up. now i get errors installing packages. dpkg-reconfigure -a was suggested but is there another way?
[12:38] <T_T> exactly Dr_Willis
[12:38] <mahisastra> lol
[12:38] <erUSUL> mahisastra: on a video hardly anything. you have to reencode in a better format and/or reduce resolution
[12:39] <SwedeMike> mahisastra: http://mediautils.garage.maemo.org/tablet-encode.html

[12:42] <haavaros> Gnome-terminal doesn't recognize e-mail-adresses with an underscore. Is there some way to fix that?
[12:43] <CQ> killaz-Qc-: you can use all the standard python functions... if you use other libraries, look at their license. But youshoudl ask in a legal forum, not here...

[12:50] <meowbuntu> EruditeHermit, SandGorgon, yoyoned, i want to take a cd of ubuntu and make an iso from it
[12:51] <Llywelyn> Redilyn?
[12:51] <SandGorgon> meowbuntu, true.. that is what the "dd" command is for.
[12:51] <CQ> meowbuntu: stop asking and google it. The google link I posted to you has teh first result with good instructions. Go read and do it.
[12:51] <yoyoned> meowbuntu: you wnat to take a running system and make a live cd, or you want to make a cd backup

[12:52] <meowbuntu> yoyoned, you are way off its ok CQ helped me out
[12:52] <erUSUL> znxtch: emeral works on top of compiz but it is also obsolete
[12:53] <erUSUL> !emerald | znxtch
[12:53] <meowbuntu> benste, or you can just install google Chrome or chromium browsers
[12:53] <steventra> does anyone know of a way to run ata over ethernet using the livecd?
[12:53] <benste> meowbuntu: looks like after sudo apt-get remove firefox --purge
[12:53] <znxtch> Darnit!
[12:53] <benste>  ff is still installed
[12:53] <znxtch> I wanted to use that Mira v2 theme.
[12:53] <benste> - chromium is not an option even if it's fast
[12:53] <benste> meowbuntu: will reboot now
[12:53] <meowbuntu> ben just sudo apt-get purge firefox will work the same
[12:53] <benste> cya
[12:54] <bjs> I give up
[12:54] <meowbuntu> bjs, take a break from your computer and try again later
[12:54] <bjs> meowbuntu: been trying on ad off for a week now
[12:55] <bjs> and*
[12:55] <red2kic> znxtch: You can still use most of it. It does not have to be 100% same. :>
[12:55] <znxtch> I don't know how.  I'm dumb.
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> we need a theme randomizer tool that takes random parts from all these themes :)  and mixxesd them all up! yea.. thats it.
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> and ranzomize it all every 5 min
[12:55] <Migi32> umm... no
[12:56] <Migi32> :)
[12:56] <CQ> bjs: ask on #samba ?
[12:56] <red2kic> Dr_Willis: I'd hate to get big fonts / high contract / bold "ugly" colors. :(
[12:56] <bjs> CQ: thanks, will do :)
[12:57] <benste> meowbuntu: looks like after purging it's still isntalled but running with all old settings
[12:57] <benste> possibly firefox package is a metapackage - isn't it ?
[12:57] <meowbuntu> bjs add what
[12:57] <benste> meowbuntu: kinda strange that it's working after 2nd restart without reinstalling
[12:57] <benste> thx for your help
[12:57] <meowbuntu> benste, sudo apt-get purge firefox
[12:58] <meowbuntu> np

[13:00] <Llywelyn> Redilyn?
[13:00] <meowbuntu> i cant understand this http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion <- its talking about cd images when i just want to make an iso of a cd.
[13:00] <meowbuntu> i think there is an app like brasero that can do that
[13:01] <dabaR> meowbuntu: sorry, there is nothing there like that.
[13:01] <dabaR> meowbuntu, I was just checking, my mistake.
[13:01] <meowbuntu> xfburn maby
[13:02] <meowbuntu> dabaR, there is in windows but i dont have windows
[13:02] <dabaR> meowbuntu, I mean, there is nothing like that on that page I made ubotu link to.
[13:02] <CQ> meowbuntu: all those extensions are CD images ... .iso is only the most standard.
[13:02] <dabaR> meowbuntu, I believe someone already told you how to burn.
[13:02] <Llywelyn> Hello, I have some issues with my CD USB key... Can someone help me?
[13:03] <meowbuntu> anyone know an application like brasero adn xfburn that allows me to make an .iso from a cd
[13:03] <CQ> meowbuntu: what#s teh problem with dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso  ??
[13:03] <f3rland> hello there! i'm trying to create a deb package that add an icon in Applications menu. I created a file in usr/share/menu/<packagename> without success. any idea?
[13:03] <overmind> CQ: k3b?
[13:03] <dabaR> Llywelyn: Sure, state more about the error.
[13:04] <dabaR> !ask | Llywelyn
[13:04] <CQ> overmind: dd was the first google result, so that's what I recommended ;)
[13:04] <meowbuntu> dabaR, i dont want to burn listen man i want to take a ubuntu cd and make a working .iso image of it
[13:04] <meowbuntu> anyone know an application like brasero adn xfburn that allows me to make an .iso from a cd
[13:04] <Llywelyn> Okay. When I insert my device, it isn't recognized
[13:04] <dabaR> meowbuntu, that's what I meant, heh.
[13:04] <CQ> meowbuntu: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso DOES EXACTLY THAT.
[13:05] <Llywelyn> Nothing happens... :(
[13:05] <CQ> meowbuntu: you may need to change the name of your CD device, but that should work
[13:05] <CQ> meowbuntu: else do what overmind said : install and use k3b
[13:06] <dabaR> Llywelyn: your USB key does not get recognized?
[13:06] <geek1d> arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr This is driving me insane!
[13:06] <Llywelyn> dabaR no it doesn't, nothing happens :(
[13:06] <meowbuntu> ok CQ i was confused thanks for clarifying
[13:07] <meowbuntu> i dont like kde apps
[13:07] <meowbuntu> ^ CQ
[13:07] <micmic> meowbuntu, use gnome apps instead
[13:07] <meowbuntu> CQ how can i find my cd device
[13:08] <CQ> meowbuntu: http://alecthegeek.wordpress.com/2007/01/19/how-to-create-an-iso-file-image-in-gnome/ has more ideas
[13:08] <dabaR> meowbuntu, do you have an image of the CD on the desktop?
[13:08] <dabaR> \
[13:09] <dabaR> CQ: I found the same kinda deal.
[13:09] <vito_> ciaoo
[13:09] <vito_> you italian ???
[13:09] <dabaR> CQ: looks neat to be able to right click, and then rip.
[13:09] <dabaR> vito_: There might be an italian Ubuntu channel

[13:12] <ogen> I want to over-limit write a cd by 30 Megs. Is it better if I use a slower write speed? How do I get to that control? Ubuntu 9.10

[13:13] <Vhozard> ogen Use overburn
[13:14] <Szymon> Hi. I have problem. I need to edit grub configuration with live cd, I'm mounting /dev/sda1 to directory, chroot to it, edit grub.cfg, and then running grub-mkconfig... and this is problem /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?). /dev/ is mounted (in chrooted env), but there is no /dev/sda1. What i'm doing wrong?
[13:14] <Vhozard> ogen Slower write speed is usefull sometimes
[13:14] <red2kic> Szymon: If nobody know, try #grub
[13:15] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all
[13:15] <stuart_> hello, is there anything that will allow me to take a screen shot OF a terminal?
[13:16] <CQ> !screencast | stuart
[13:16] <red2kic> stuart_: "scrot -sb" -- Click on the terminal window.
[13:17] <stuart_> just to comfirm that is not under an X-Window situation, ie if I am using a server...
[13:17] <CQ> stuart_: may need to use screenthen, not sure if that'll do it though
[13:17] <red2kic> stuart_: I don't know. Some kind of external recorder? :|
[13:17] <mxh> use a camera ,haha..
[13:17] <stuart_> thankyou, mxh.
[13:18] <CQ> stuart_: look at http://jmcpherson.org/screen.html
[13:18] <squiddy> anyone using lucid ? is the USB works with vbox ?
[13:19] <red2kic> squiddy: #ubuntu+1
[13:19] <red2kic> squiddy: I'm sure there will be a solution in a few days/a week after Lucid came out.
[13:20] <squiddy> red2kic: what does it mean ? #ubuntu+1 ?
[13:20] <red2kic> squiddy: Click on it.

[13:22] <ChadVM> Audio Problem - Ubuntu 9.10:  I do not have audio on one of my accounts.  Line6USB is a guitar plug in/usb device that all of my audio goes through.
[13:22] <ogen> I am in ubuntu - I can choose overburn but ??? how do I get to a place where I can limit the write speed. I guess this is Brasero, CD / DVD Creator.  ALSO I want to burn as iso file to a disk and it asks me questions I dont understand. "Do I want to create a dissk from the contents of the image or with the image inside."  I want it bootable. what do I do? (Vhozard or any)
[13:23] <ogen> oh so tired.
[13:23] <Vhozard> what do you want to burn actually ogen?
[13:24] <CQ> ChadVM: look in /etc/groups and check if both are in the audio group
[13:24] <wise_crypt> ChadVM, : chek your user group wheter or not it is in audio group
[13:24] <ChadVM> ok, will do that now.
[13:24] <ogen> Vhozard, windows pro
[13:24] <ogen> lol
[13:24] <wise_crypt> CQ: lol
[13:25] <ogen> Vhozard, I opened Brasero by itself and figured out the iso burning
[13:25] <jibi> hi
[13:25] <jibi> can somebody help please?
[13:25] <ogen> Vhozard, but the slow burning.
[13:25] <wise_crypt> !help | jibi
[13:25] <ogen> jibi you have to jump in and ask your question fully.
[13:25] <Vhozard> ogen wait a sec
[13:26] <ogen> Vhozard, ok
[13:26] <syanide> ogen: to limit the burn speed, right click on an iso file, open with brasero and click properties next to burner. There you can limit the burn speed. Is that what you wanted?
[13:26] <Vhozard> youre on a live cd?
[13:26] <Vhozard> thats possible too :)
[13:27] <micmic> bye

[13:28] <ChadVM> minus the semi-colons
[13:28] <jibi> I have a folder with many txt files in it, and those files i suppose are encrypted, because they have strange characters in them. I have another file named question without extension that I try to open, but it doesnt open. I have another hint txt file that says DES-EDE. Obviously its DES-EDE encryption. I tried to change the extension of question to zip or rar, and when i try to open the file with one of these extensions, its says file damaged. What do I have t
[13:28] <jibi> o do to open this file plz?

[13:31] <jibi> o do to open this file plz?
[13:31] <wise_crypt> ChadVM: use user manager
[13:31] <ogen> syanide, let me see if that works - this one is a movie not an iso. it is in .avi form. It's a data disk I want to burn, right?
[13:31] <edgar000> @jibi: change the extension to ".doc"  so Word will try to open it and offers some conversions.
[13:31] <ChadVM> ok, i've not used this before.  is there a command i can man <command>?
[13:31] <Vhozard> ogen .avi yes data disk
[13:32] <jibi> edgard thank you
[13:32] <syanide> ogen: yes, data disk.
[13:32] <lalalol> how do i navigate to the cd i put in my computer?
[13:32] <ogen> (took 7.5 mins to burn windows, sure hope it works. TimeWarner wont help me on a problem if I am using Ubuntu)
[13:32] <syanide> lalalol: it should appear on your desktop
[13:32] <syanide> once you put it in
[13:33] <edgar000> @jibi  but it does it only when you have made the "file associations" so that WinWord or Openoffice will open DOC-files.
[13:33] <lalalol> syanide, it doesnt
[13:33] <jibi> ok ok i will check that:) Thank you
[13:33] <ChadVM> I think i've got it.  thanks for your help crypt/everyone
[13:34] <lalalol> syanide, any other thoughts?
[13:34] <syanide> lalalol, i'll be with you in a second
[13:34] <edgar000> you also may try to change the extension to .odf  in order to have it opended by Writer.
[13:34] <seisatsu> got a problem
[13:34] <jibi> how do you make the files associations??
[13:35] <lalalol> ok syanide
[13:35] <seisatsu> Even though I used "&" and my process is in the background of bash
[13:35] <seisatsu> It doesn't show up in jobs
[13:35] <seisatsu> I need to nohup it
[13:35] <edgar000> @jibi  in Ubuntu?
[13:35] <jibi> no windows
[13:35] <seisatsu> Is there any way to nohup something that isn't a job?
[13:36] <seisatsu>  I ran the process in the background under another bash shell
[13:36] <jibi> ohhh ok ok
[13:36] <syanide> lalalol: try typing this in console: lshw -C disk
[13:36] <jibi> file association means right click open with?
[13:36] <ogen> syanide, that's not quite right and I am too tired to go further. I'll ask again. Thank you for your time.
[13:37] <lalalol> syanide, you sure that wont burn anything on it right?
[13:37] <syanide> nope I just did it
[13:37] <syanide> it just checks if its capable of burning
[13:38] <edgar000> @jibi  I even do not know the exact German place to change it in German it is called something like System control. I do not kno tha name in a US Windows.
[13:38] <lalalol> syanide, i got some info
[13:38] <lalalol> what now?
[13:39] <lalalol> i got info from my HDD and from the CD i put in, but i cant seem to find if its empty or not
[13:39] <Flynsarmy> Are intel graphics still really bad on karmic or have hte issues been fixed?
[13:39] <edgar000> @JIbi but often you need not to change it because its standard or default
[13:39] <lalalol> syanide, ill pm it
[13:39] <mylisto> so I have a question about sound that I believe is part an ubuntu issue and part a virtualbox issue
[13:41] <edgar000> some software when newly installed asks you what file types should be associated with the program (and that is tyicaly anything it can open)  if you do nit pay attention with one click anything will be opend in furtur with thhis Prog
[13:41] <^mNotIntelligent> anyone using gtalk on ubuntu... actually i wanted to use the feature of gtalk voice call.... using pidgin the voice quality is not good annd sometime it doesnot work ....

[13:50] <mozir> I'm using compiz and there is an annoying lag when I maximize windows from the taskbar. Is this a bugß
[13:50] <mozir> *?
[13:50] <Ahox> mozir, do you have compiz enabled?
[13:50] <mozir> Yes, with ccsm
[13:51] <Ahox> if so it could well be that your opengl is software rendered
[13:51] <mozir> I have already enabled the drivers for my ATI card
[13:51] <ravenkhan> please tell me how can i make a fedora live usb
[13:51] <mozir> And everything else doesn't lag either
[13:51] <Ahox> mozir,  can you run glxinfo|grep renderer
[13:52] <mozir> Ahox, sure
[13:52] <greggomano> I ssh into my media server and use mc to organize my files - how can i get mc to remember my remote preferences? (options -> save setup isn't working)

[13:53] <Ahox> mozir,  this looks good. In this case I am sorry, I don't really have any other ideas...
[13:53] <mozir> Ahox: Thanks for your help :) Ubuntu is great by the way
[13:54] <greggomano> llutz: there is no ~/.mc
[13:54] <soreau> mozir: It's an fglrx bug. Supposedly it will be fixed in later versions of their driver. The good news is that the radeon driver has 3D support for your card in lucid so you wont have to install any driver
[13:54] <mozir> Although I have another "problem": I'm used to Windows XP with Visual Studio for C++ development. I have never written a makefile and would be glad if I wouldn't need too. How can I get started with C++ on Ubuntu? Any IDE or easy compiler available?
[13:54] <red2kic> greggomano: "sudo updatedb && locate mc" might give you something.
[13:55] <soreau> ! ide | mozir
[13:55] <greggomano> red2kic: ok i'll try that
[13:55] <llutz> greggomano: ls -lad ~/.mc
[13:55] <Ahox> mozir,  try kdevelop, it belongs to kde, however it is a really nice ide
[13:55] <mozir> sereau: Thanks for both

[14:01] <ravenkhan> fedora group?

[14:02] <llutz> ravenkhan: /msg alis list *fedora*
[14:02] <bilalakhtar> mozir: The software center was added very recently. Synaptic has been there since a long time. software center offers only a few programs, while synaptic is much more advanced

[14:07] <t\zz> hi all i have a big problem: after my machine lost the power connection and rebooted i lost an important file (the file is still there, but 0 bytes in it). ubuntu didn't do a fsck at reboot. how can i tell ubuntu to force a fs check and do so at reboot?
[14:07] <Gokul> *update-manager -d* does NOT show an option to upgrade to 10.04 RC
[14:08] <llutz> t\zz: sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo reboot
[14:08] <t\zz> llutz:  i did exactly what you write, but it didn't do anything but a normal reboot!
[14:09] <Jork> Hello. How can I setup mplayer to play me h62 and bluray files?
[14:09] <llutz> t\zz: restore the file from backup then and file a bug-report
[14:09] <Mono_kanalla> HI, I need to operate mi wireless. Mi PC is a compaq presario cq60. some solution?
[14:09] <t\zz> llutz:  as there's no backup this isn't possible
[14:09] <IdleOne> Gokul: Please /join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.
[14:10] <llutz> t\zz: i refuse to ask, why you don't backup you data if it is "important" :)
[14:10] <Mono_kanalla> alguien puede ayudarme a habilitar mi wifi? El piloto de la wireless no se enciende
[14:11] <t\zz> llutz:  as its not my computer and not my data i can't answer the question. i' m the supporter only
[14:11] <Oer> Jork  this page might help >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD
[14:11] <llutz> t\zz: boot a live-cd and fsck from there
[14:11] <t\zz> llutz:  nice idea, will try
[14:12] <Jork> thnx Oer
[14:12] <llutz> t\zz: but you still should consider to file a bug-report, /forcefsck should work (even if they strip out -f/-F from shutdown)
[14:13] <t\zz> llutz:  already found a bugreport to that issue, and many forum entrys about
[14:13] <wise_crypt> Mono_kanalla: es?

[14:19] <kop> wise_crypt, np , found that ... it used to be easy . I have access to a desktop that deserves a few custom sounds . He really ows me and needs a few "danger Wil Robinson" snd bytes
[14:19] <IdleOne> Oer: yes there are
[14:19] <ikaruga1234> oer IdleOne, yeah looking at them now
[14:19] <wise_crypt> kop: :)
[14:19] <felon> is there a program like convertxtodvd for ubuntu without using wine.
[14:19] <Oer> i'm on ubuntu 64 bit, no laptop, but do have power buttons @ keyboard
[14:20] <IdleOne> Oer: I'm on 32 bit 10.04. that might be a difference in files perhaps?
[14:21] <ikaruga1234> IdleOne: oer: which script is more recent? They seem to be doing the same thing but Oer's is more elegant...
[14:21] <Oer> i guess it looks like a change in 10.04
[14:21] <Oer> ikaruga1234, are you on 9.10 ?
[14:21] <IdleOne> ikaruga1234: I think mine would be the most recent as I am using 10.04
[14:21] <IdleOne> but you may want to use Oer's if you are on 9.10
[14:22] <kop> ikaruga1234, http://paste.ubuntu.com/421672/
[14:22] <kop> wise_crypt, so let the left coast wake up and try again ?
[14:22] <ikaruga1234> thanx all

[14:22] <kop> np
[14:23] <Oer> kop, you run 32 or 64 bit ?
[14:23] <IdleOne> Oer: I don't think that makes a difference.

[14:29] <parkie> live cd with gpart
[14:29] <parkie> just google gparted live
[14:29] <soreau> guest12573: Do you have a swap partition?
[14:29] <kop> sirius-n900, gparted-live
[14:29] <sirius-n900> why cant i do this in the installer?
[14:30] <Oer> sirius-n900, ubuntu can handle ext3/4 to decrease
[14:30] <kop> sirius-n900, because the installer is a little less intuitive and somwhat scary for the uninitiated
[14:30] <sirius-n900> i tried but in advance mode i just cant downsize a partition...
[14:30] <sirius-n900> hmm k
[14:31] <kop> sirius-n900, just try the live gparted d and don't get pissed if the graghics are flakey just work till it works
[14:31] <IdleOne> sirius-n900: you need to use gparted and resize you partition and then create a new partition with the freed space
[14:32] <AnxiousNut> how can i change the remote desktop setting through command line
[14:32] <MadAGu>  is there any way to disable hdmi audio?

[14:32] <IdleOne> sirius-n900: remember that none of the changes are final until you click apply. so you can change/edit until final conformation
[14:32]  * kop found that on some ATI cards the gparted live cd needs safe mode or more tweaks to run :)

[14:39] <IdleOne> joshdreamland: you can also join him in -es if you can help :)
[14:39] <joshdreamland> well, I'm just not certain if he's tried apt-getting it or not
[14:39] <joshdreamland> If he has, I've never really installed icecast, so I can't really help
[14:40] <IdleOne> joshdreamland: ah ok
[14:40] <joshdreamland> but I do see it is available (at least from 9.10) as a package
[14:40] <IdleOne> it is

[14:42] <randomusr> avuton, man top
[14:42] <avuton> randomusr: it's not using any extra cpu%, I'm looking for something I can aim at it and tell me what the hell it is

[14:45] <randomusr> lol
[14:45] <wise_crypt> Yoshario: xpaint
[14:45] <Dravekx> GIMP > xpaint
[14:45] <Yoshario> gpaint doesn't have undo
[14:45] <bramming9x> i dont find gimp simple. its pretty hard to get to know if you're just looking for basic functionality. Yoshario, i would recommend KolourPaint or xpaint
[14:45] <wise_crypt> Yoshario: kpaint

[14:59] <Ge5i> how can i extract a parted rar ???
[14:59] <Ge5i> together in one file ???
[14:59] <soreau> Ge5i: You have to start with the first file and have the other files in the same directory
[15:00] <soreau> Ge5i: ie. just extract the first file and it will find the rest
[15:00] <sorin7486> :))
[15:00] <K-Yo> Ge5i, works with any of the files actually
[15:00] <lightbricko> When mounting my secondary HDD, I get "mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or /mnt/SamsungPartition busy". However, strangely it works after some minutes. How can I fix this?
[15:00] <Ge5i> soreau , K-Yo so i just have to unrar x rarfile.rar
[15:01] <K-Yo> Ge5i, never tried with CLI, try it! it whould work
[15:01] <Ge5i> soreau , k-yo and then do the same for the other files but i just have to extract those at the same directory
[15:01] <K-Yo> Ge5i, no need, just do it once, for one file
[15:01] <technikfreak> hello together is it possible to control ubuntu via voice?

[15:19] <dima-linux> thanks, i'll try gnash
[15:19] <OmegaPhil1> I'm guessing a dont have enough access for this, but the bloke mentioned reopening it when he closed it
[15:20] <OmegaPhil1> This is my first time using BugZilla :/
[15:22] <Oer> OmegaPhil1, the original poster didn't reply with logs, so i suggest if this bug is bothering you too, open a new bugreport, and mention this one
[15:23] <OmegaPhil1> I have added my comments + file at the bottom
[15:23] <OmegaPhil1> With RT at least that would have reopened it..
[15:23] <ravenkhan> please help me SIS graphics driver
[15:23] <randomusr> does anyone here use SQLite? If so, how does one create a user and return columns or rows of data?
[15:23] <OmegaPhil1> Oer: OK, I'll wait a few days to see if anything happens then open a dupe
[15:24] <Niteshade> hey
[15:24] <Niteshade> got a problem
[15:24] <yoyoned> randomusr: i've used it whith python.  I didn't need to create users
[15:24] <Oer> OmegaPhil1, ok good idea
[15:24] <airtonix> i just realised its been five years since developers of firestarter promised to include making UDP policies  via the gui... still nothing yet.
[15:25] <Niteshade> when i try to log in to my account, the computer crashes.  (I think it's how i configured gnome on that account, because when i log into root it works fine)
[15:25] <Niteshade> it's probably something with how i got the panels
[15:25] <h00k> Niteshade: You...shouldn't be loggign into root
[15:25] <h00k> !root
[15:25] <Niteshade> i'm not in root now
[15:25] <Oer> !resetpanels
[15:26] <randomusr> yoyoned, is it a self contained Database similar to the MSDE?
[15:26] <Niteshade> well i figured out how to make a root password
[15:26] <Niteshade> all i did was sudo bash
[15:26] <Niteshade> then passwd
[15:26] <airtonix> !enter
[15:26] <Niteshade> it's a fairly simple hack
[15:26] <airtonix> Niteshade, also : just because you can install an OS with the admin password as "" doesn't mean you should.
[15:26] <randomusr> Niteshade, are you trying to enable the root user?
[15:27] <Niteshade> already did, but now i can't get rid of sudo.
[15:27] <Niteshade> I mean, if i can sudo to root, then anybody that can get inside can too
[15:27]  * airtonix  facepalms
[15:27] <Niteshade> so, they only have to get my password to root my laptop
[15:28] <soreau> Niteshade: Running as root is a bad idea from the start. This is why ubuntu does not opt the user to set the root password in the first place
[15:28] <randomusr> Niteshade, not exactly, but have fun with that
[15:28] <ravenkhan> hey please help me out
[15:28] <Niteshade> anyways, i still need to be able to reconfigure my user account from another account so i can run my account
[15:29] <airtonix> !help
[15:29] <Niteshade> but i don't know how to do that without being in my account
[15:29] <monra> Hello... I was wondering what package should I install in order to be able to see manuals of library functions. For example "man realloc"?
[15:29] <randomusr> Niteshade, do what?
[15:29] <BluesKaj> howdy folks
[15:29] <Niteshade> listen...
[15:29] <VCoolio> Niteshade: sudo -u <user-to-fix> gconf-editor ??
[15:29] <airtonix> BluesKaj, greetings loyal minion.
[15:29] <stomper> can I ask a wine sorta question? Why is /dev/cdrom linked to /dev/sr0?
[15:30] <stomper> I think I hosed up some dosdevices links
[15:30] <randomusr> oh boy
[15:30] <BluesKaj> hi airtonix
[15:30] <Niteshade> i configured gnome to have tabs where it apparently doesen't like them so it locks up when i log in (a tab over top of a tab, one set to autohide)
[15:30] <airtonix> stomper, i've seen this before, i think maybe some win related app links it because some quirky windows apps try to look for cdrom there
[15:30] <Zider> stomper: because cdrom sounds more logical than sr0? :)
[15:30] <Niteshade> i have to ctrl-alt-f1, then log in, and then go "shutdown now" and try again
[15:30] <genoclde> does ubuntu automatically find drivers for your video card and etc?
[15:31] <stomper> heh, maybe Zider!
[15:31] <Niteshade> it did
[15:31] <Niteshade> got fglrx working fine
[15:31] <airtonix> stomper, wine related* >> what wine related apps do you have installed ?
[15:31] <enthdegree> Oh, hey. Where am I supposed to log my programs messages? Just make a folder in /var/log/
[15:31] <Niteshade> look, if it was something deeper then this account i'm chatting from wouldn't work either
[15:31] <airtonix> enthdegree, generally, yes.
[15:31] <Zider> stomper: and it's not wine that does that, it's the system
[15:31] <stomper> airtonix: trying to get a win game to run under wine, and needs to see cdrom.  so, checked dosdevices and noted links there
[15:32] <stomper> even made an iso of the cd and mounted it as cdrom in winecfg.... no dice.
[15:32] <airtonix> stomper, ah right, did you use winecfg and click autodetect ?
[15:32] <Niteshade> so, how do i move and delete panels and icons in another account when not in that account?
[15:32] <usser> stomper: that most likely wont work, you need a no-cd crack for the game to run properly
[15:33] <akymdj> hi
[15:33] <airtonix> stomper, from my experience windows apps run through the wine translator can only see unix devices if wine creates win mappings.
[15:33] <usser> stomper: what game is that anyway?
[15:33] <stomper> airtonix: yep..  but I think in my attempt at fixing it I messed up the links.. so I was trying to figure out to make sure d: was linked to the device and d:: to the mnt point.
[15:33] <wise_crypt> !resetpanels | Niteshade
[15:33] <Niteshade> thanks!
[15:33] <stomper> Rollcage stage 2!!! (only the most awesome racing game EVER!) ...... IMHO of course
[15:34] <airtonix> stomper, i assume you've already scoured the wine hq page for the game ?
[15:34] <stomper> the thing is, it installed off the cdrom
[15:34] <stomper> and launches and works except I cant play the single player, says I need cd
[15:34] <airtonix> stomper, game setup.exe != game.exe
[15:34] <stomper> yeah, tell me about it!
[15:34] <XypherOrion> stomper, is there a config file in the game dirs that defines where its looking for the CD?
[15:34] <Asmob> hello Nvidia saysr stoped working in some wierd way. that i need restart x server but i dont now how... the drive
[15:35] <stomper> hmmm.... cd cracks make me nervous (tojans all day long)
[15:35] <airtonix> stomper, i recommend reading the winehq page for the game... someone else surely has come across the problem by now
[15:35] <stomper> err trojans
[15:35] <stomper> yeah I checked wine hq and still have some things I can try.
[15:35] <dima-linux> hm, somehow gnash is just trash, nothing works
[15:35] <usser> dima-linux: haha
[15:35] <stomper> good ides xypher I'll check
[15:35] <dima-linux> even youtube doesn't work
[15:35] <usser> dima-linux: yep
[15:36] <stomper> idea I meant
[15:36] <dima-linux> so better i stay with adobe player than nothing :)
[15:36]  * airtonix laments that firestarter still does not allow for UDP policies.
[15:36] <wise_crypt> dima-linux: haha its still in beta
[15:37] <Niteshade> so, do you have to be logged in to that account to reset panels?
[15:37] <dima-linux> not alfa?
[15:37] <genoclde> what is the one addon to nautilus that has the bar so you can just type in where you want to go
[15:37] <dima-linux> i read, that's still alfa
[15:37] <genoclde> i know that normal nautilus doesn't have that
[15:37] <Niteshade> or will it do that everywhere?
[15:37] <ZykoticK9> genoclde, are you using Lucid?
[15:38] <genoclde> yea
[15:38] <ZykoticK9> genoclde, press the / key
[15:38] <VCoolio> Niteshade: you'll need to be that user, or try sudo -u thatuser command
[15:38] <genoclde> no i mean, what is it called?
[15:38] <dima-linux> how can i pm a user in this window?
[15:38] <genoclde> oh wow

[15:44] <rocket16> airtonix: Thanks friend. I meant my problem wrongly, :( I just meant the Indicator applet. I added it successfully, and used the "pkill gnome-panel" command. Still, thanks, :)
[15:44] <nixi> no
[15:45] <uLinux> wise_crypt  so i install samba...

[15:47] <uLinux> airtonix i want to acess xp
[15:47] <uLinux> ..
[15:47] <akymdj> come si usa??

[15:48] <airtonix> uLinux, did you read what i just typed ?
[15:48] <wise_crypt> uLinux: please read the link ubottu gave u
[15:48] <Asmob> airtonix, not working..
[15:48] <airtonix> Asmob, then you have deeper issues and vague descriptions won't get you any further with me.
[15:48] <haavaros> Hi guys! I'm gonna assemble a PC for my 60 y.o. neighbour. They've got some experience with Windows from work. Do you think Ubuntu Lucid would work for such utter noobs?
[15:48] <akymdj> oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh qualcuno conosce l'italiano??
[15:49] <wise_crypt> !lucid | haavaros
[15:49] <ZykoticK9> !it | akymdj
[15:49] <uLinux> but i dont to share a folder from ubuntu
[15:49] <uLinux> dont want
[15:49] <XypherOrion> You're going to put prerelease linux software on a 60 year old man's PC with little PC knowledge?
[15:49] <haavaros> wise_crypt: jeez. Ubuntu, then
[15:49] <XypherOrion> I suppose if you want to give the man an aniurism
[15:50] <airtonix> uLinux, 1. right click the desktop 2. create a folder (call it test) 3. right click this new folder, 4. select sharing. 5. follow onscreen prompts
[15:50] <Asmob> how i can fix graphics settings
[15:50] <haavaros> XypherOrion: Anyway, just Ubuntu ... by the time I've put together a comp, Ludic is released
[15:50] <slide23_> How do I install sun java in lucid? It doesn't appear to be available in the universe anymore
[15:50] <airtonix> slide23_, wrong channel.
[15:50] <slide23_> k
[15:50] <BluesKaj> XypherOrion, I'm in my 60s running lucid without any headaches :)
[15:50] <XypherOrion> compy only takes a few days to build, even with shipping ;)
[15:50] <ZykoticK9> slide23_, add the partner repo -- #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support
[15:51] <haavaros> UBUNTU THEN
[15:51] <uLinux> airtonix i dont want to share a folder on ubuntu
[15:51] <uLinux> but ok
[15:51] <isaac_> Getting a lot of Lucid questions today........
[15:51] <wise_crypt> isaac_: lol
[15:51] <haavaros> Do you think Ubuntu is as noob-friendly as Win 7? For a complete noob, is Ubuntu as simple to use as Windows?
[15:51] <haavaros> I myself think so, but that's from my perspective
[15:51] <airtonix> uLinux, its easiest way to get things going. after you have stuff isntalled logout and back in again. then let me know when you have the file browser open again.
[15:52] <isaac_> haavaros, I haven't tried Win7 yet (I don't pay for stuff I don't need... probably get Win7 when I get a new computer) but Ubuntu latest is dead easy even for me.
[15:52] <uLinux> airtonix  ok so i share a folder on ubuntu just to create a connection with xp
[15:52] <wise_crypt> haavaros: my 5 years old daughter use ubuntu > gcompris i think they will manage it
[15:52] <isaac_> If I can use it for what I want to do, anyone can.  I installed everything and got it running as I want with no command lines at all.
[15:52] <airtonix> uLinux, no this simply intiates the installation of samba related software.
[15:52] <uLinux> yes but i can install samba without it
[15:53] <airtonix> uLinux, if you want more complicated instructions you should be reading that page which was linked to you a while ago.
[15:53] <airtonix> !samba | uLinux
[15:53] <uLinux> i got the links..
[15:53] <haavaros> thanks for your advice ppl.
[15:54] <wise_crypt> haavaros: np
[15:54] <airtonix> uLinux, if you know the ip address of the windows machine (ie : <IP_ADDRESS> ) you can enter this into the address bar of nautilus : smb://<IP_ADDRESS>
[15:55] <airtonix> Gigolo is another neat app for managing network shares
[15:55] <wise_crypt> !info Gigolo
[15:56] <wise_crypt> !info gigolo
[15:56] <airtonix>  it makes network share mounting in openbox nice via gui
[15:56] <wise_crypt> airtonix: what a name for an app
[15:56] <airtonix> gigolo 13
