[10:29] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: so windows and ubuntu it's basically the same
[10:30] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: hehe. not quite, no.
[10:30] <tombott> lol
[10:30] <prince_jammys> they both have the letter 'n' in their names.
[10:30] <anselm> pcbugfixer: you will need to install this grubloader to the ubuntu partition otherwise it will damage your bootit. Per default it will install to the mbr
[10:31] <shai> godstar, Closest I got is this: gnome-terminal --tab -t test --tab -t shai --tab -t server
[10:32] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: i did not mean it like that i know ubuntu is more advance but thanks
[10:32] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: Any OS should have a way to type in commands.
[10:33] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: the terminal by itself takes input and shows output. It's the programs the are connected to the terminal that are doing the work.
[10:33] <prince_jammys> s/the/that
[10:33] <ArkoldThos> anyone could take a look on this thread? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8029495
[10:34] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: but in windows it's prompt commands correct
[10:34] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: windows does have a Command Prompt, or DOS prompt, or something like that.
[10:35] <pcbugfixer> ubottu: anselm: OK is - I use a boot manager = BootItNG so is grup installed into the Ubuntu partition ? so far we got "1. - choose manual, 2. - select the partition 3. - edit the partition - and select ext3 filesystem 4. - select "/" as mount point" - now we have to install "grubloader" so at what stage is this performed please ? and is there anything else that needs to be installed - swap ? and where and how is this done all in 1 partiti
[10:36] <godstar> shai: all I came across was: sudo su gnome-terminal --tab --tab --tab
[10:36] <shai> godstar, that's what I gave you just above :)
[10:36] <godstar> shai: the it does not remember the settings once gnome terminal is closed and reopened.
[10:36] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: what is the difference between DOS prompt and Command
[10:36] <shai> godstar, Closest I got is this: gnome-terminal --tab -t test --tab -t shai --tab -t server
[10:37] <shai> godstar, so -t actually names them... which is good..
[10:37] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: i don't know much about windows stuff. You can ask in ##windows if you want to know.
[10:38] <ArkoldThos> command?
[10:38] <prince_jammys> ''command prompt''
[10:38] <prince_jammys> windows-speak
[10:38] <leissi> lol
[10:38] <leissi> So hey uh
[10:38] <roberto_> ciao a tutti
[10:38] <leissi> is there a way to configure logitech mouse to use all buttons properly?
[10:38] <leissi> in ubuntu, that is
[10:39] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: on a server
[10:39] <anselm> pcbugfixer: OK. You should have swap also. I forgot about that true. Sorry
[10:39] <prince_jammys> cheslyn: huh?
[10:40] <neil_d> godstar: found a simple way to find out way the drive is. cat /proc/partitions get the #blocks and time by 1024
[10:40] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: do you know what what server
[10:41] <pcbugfixer> anselm: so how and when is all this performed - or can this be done at the same time, if so how please
[10:42] <archy008> I reinstalled the destop manager, alsamixer in terminal shows me all the controlls - but still on boot I have no sound settings start up... and when trying to launch them from System>Preferences>sound - nothing happens only an error tells me that it was not possible t launch the gnome-settings-daemon... and something about possible problems with Bonobo.. or that some other non-gnome settings manager (as kde) might interfere...
[10:42] <archy008> so.. still no sound
[10:42] <archy008> and when trying to launch some app that uses sound it freezes.. and i have to kill it
[10:42] <archy008> any ideas?
[10:42] <pcbugfixer> anselm: looking at the sequence of instructions "1. - choose manual, 2. - select the partition 3. - edit the partition - and select ext3 filesystem 4. - select "/" as mount point" - + install "grubloader" and /swap
[10:43] <Gecko> any known problems with the ubuntu keyserver? It hasn't been working for me lately
[10:43] <carresmd> archy008: looks like a reinstall to me :)
[10:44] <godstar> archy008: Hmm. Try running Ubuntu from the live cd, if the sound works from there, you could just try to reload altogether.
[10:44] <anselm> pcbugfixer: But you can only create 4 primary partitions in linux either you boot windows and create the swap and the ext3 with bootit (http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=283) or you create a logical partition
[10:44] <ActionParsnip1> yo yo yo
[10:44] <DJones> Gecko: Its had problems for the last week or so
[10:44] <archy008> godstar: what does it mean to reload altogether?
[10:44] <godstar> archy008: Else you could try to troubleshoot.
[10:44] <godstar> archy008: Reinstall Ubuntu.
[10:44] <archy008> ok...
[10:45] <DJones> Gecko: This was posted in the channel a couple of days ago and may help: You can use pool.sks-keyservers.net in place of the keyserver if you are adding a ppa to your ubuntu install.  If you are creating a ppa on launchpad then you should ask in #launchpad
[10:45] <Gecko> DJones: Could I use any keyserver or are the ppa repositories only submitted to that keyserver?
[10:45] <archy008> well.. not my favorite option... but I was thinking to do that anyways when the 9.10 is released...
[10:45] <Gecko> DJones: thanks, answered my question just before I asked it myself ;)
[10:45] <NBZ4live> Hi @ all
[10:45] <NBZ4live> Kann mier vieleicht jemand einen guten grafischen HTML-Editor empfehlen?
[10:45] <Wazzzaaa> How can I restart X from commandline?
[10:46] <godstar> archy008: do you have the medibuntu packages installed?
[10:46] <NBZ4live> Brauche sowas wie Dreamviewer, nur für Ubuntu
[10:46] <carresmd> try 'init 1' as root ;)
[10:46] <llutz> !de | NBZ4live
[10:46] <archy008> yup
[10:46] <jaunty> hey guys i have an issue
[10:46] <carresmd> Wazzzaaa: try 'sudo init 1'
[10:46] <Wazzzaaa> ok,
[10:46] <NBZ4live> sry#
[10:46] <archy008> yes they are installed
[10:47] <archy008> should I reinstall them?
[10:47] <jaunty> when i plug my headphones the sound comes out from speakers and headphones at the same time
[10:47] <archy008> i also have xfce installed.. so maybe some conflict there?
[10:47] <pepsi> what package might i need to install in order to login remotely.. as in, start a new gnome session over vnc
[10:47] <jaunty> how can i fix that ?
[10:47] <godstar> archy008: try running the live cd to make sure your sound card is functioning. You may have to install, some packages for the mp3 to work.
[10:47] <NBZ4live> I need a good graphical HTML-Editor for Ubuntu. Like Dreamviewer for Win*
[10:47] <DJones> !nvu | NBZ4live
[10:47] <archy008> i see.. ok. thanks
[10:48] <godstar> archy008: hmm. Multiple desktop managers will not affect your sound.
[10:48] <jaunty> some persons have the same problem ?
[10:48] <archy008> is it a problem if I have a very old life cd? ubuntu 6.06?
[10:48] <DJones> !html | NBZ4live Also, this lists a few more suggestions for html editors
[10:49] <jaunty> please i need help
[10:49] <godstar> NBZ4live: try OpenOffice Writer.
[10:49] <NBZ4live> thx
[10:49] <leissi> is there a way to configure logitech mouse to use all buttons properly?
[10:49] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: what model?
[10:49] <godstar> archy008: you may want to download the latest ISO from ubuntu.com.
[10:49] <leissi> ActionParsnip1, mx1000
[10:49] <NBZ4live> WWwriter isn't good. I must make a template for a newsletter
[10:49] <leissi> the side buttons aren't working
[10:50] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: you can configure it in xorg.conf: http://adventuresinswitching.blogspot.com/2008/04/logitech-mx1000-mouse-on-ubuntu-804.html
[10:50] <jaunty> please :
[10:51] <silv3r_m00n> isn't there a quanta for kde 4 ?
[10:51] <godstar> jaunty: open terminal and type alsamixer. Tweak settings as needed and also try your volume manager.
[10:52] <jaunty> godstar: i did it but nothing ..
[10:52] <leissi> thanks ActionParsnip1
[10:52] <leissi> I'll config it later on, looks like a bit of effort :P
[10:53] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: just bckup the file before playng, you then have a rollback path
[10:54] <kisuke> godstar one restart later and gparted doent see my HDD  do see the flash drive, i installed linux on but thats it
[10:54] <jaunty> i can't tweak headphon settings
[10:55] <jaunty> my sound card Realtek ALC1200
[10:55] <tombott> jaunty - have you tried removing and reinstalling alsa?
[10:55] <tombott> jaunty - sudo apt-get remove alsa
[10:55] <tombott> jaunty - sudo apt-get install alsa
[10:56] <godstar> kisuke: Sounds silly but what I would do is make the HDD you are wanting Ubuntu to see your Master drive, be sure to check the jumper settings on the cable. Then I would run Ubuntu live CD and see if the live cd sees it. If it does not see it then the drive may have gone bad.
[10:56] <joaopinto> tomaw, reinstalling alsa is not a recommended way of resolving sound configuration problems
[10:56] <joaopinto> ops, tombott
[10:57] <ActionParsnip1> !keyserver
[10:57] <ActionParsnip1> does anyone know the alternative to keyserver.uuntu.com please
[10:57] <DJones> ActionParsnip1: : This was posted in the channel a couple of days ago and may help: You can use pool.sks-keyservers.net in place of the keyserver if you are adding a ppa to your ubuntu install.  If you are creating a ppa on launchpad then you should ask in #launchpad
[10:58] <ActionParsnip1> thanks
[10:58] <ActionParsnip1> perfect
[10:58] <leissi> now a vanity question
[10:58] <leissi> how do I enable wobbly window effects
[10:59] <kisuke> godstar it is my primary master but i will double check teh jumpers
[10:59] <tombott> joaopinto - well its certainly fixed prb for me before
[10:59] <joaopinto> tombott, that doesn't turn it recommended :)
[10:59] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: install 3d drivers for your graphics card, install compizconfig-settings-manager  then run ccsm and enable
[11:00] <kisuke> actionparsnip1 try keyserver.mit.edu
[11:00] <tombott> joaopinto - any fix is recommended in my book ;-)
[11:00] <godstar> kisuke: k
[11:01] <pcbugfixer> anselm: I am very clear about max partitions = 4, however BootItNG does have an option (which I did not want to use) to allow more that 4 partitions, all this I know and is not what I need info on ! - I repeat, the current partitions are 4 all primary at this point, with xp pro in Pt1 , Pt2 is empty at this moment waiting for Win7, Pt3 is for Ubuntu and Pt4 is the BootItNG partition - so I obviously need re configure Pt3 to accommodate all
[11:01] <jaunty> tombott: the same problem again ..
[11:02] <pcbugfixer> anselm: and what was the point of (http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=283) please
[11:03] <boot> edf
[11:03] <boot> 你好
[11:03] <leissi> whoops
[11:03] <leissi> broke my windows
[11:03] <boot> 你好
[11:03] <leissi> typed compiz into terminal
[11:04] <tombott> jaunty - can you load the volumne control - alsa mixer?
[11:04] <anselm> pcbugfixer: There is a part about Recommended steps for a new installation it is partly generic
[11:04] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: press alt+f2    run:    metacity --replace
[11:04] <leissi> ActionParsnip1, I already logged out and back in
[11:04] <leissi> so why does my resolution reset to 1280x1024 when I log out, I'd kinda want it to stay at 1600x1200
[11:05] <SharpRain>  whats a good download manager with multiple threads, scheduling and password/proxy support? (for ubuntu of course). also, it must do multi threads WELL, so not some half assed thing
[11:05] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: what video card do you use?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip1> SharpRain: gwget maybe
[11:05] <leissi> geforce 8800gts, I change resolution through nvidia x server settings
[11:05] <SharpRain> It'll be downloading multiple links at once..
[11:05] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: great. run: gksudo nvidia-settings
[11:05] <SharpRain> like, rapidshare kind of thing
[11:06] <ActionParsnip1> leissi: set the display then click "Write to X config file"
[11:06] <indus> ActionParsnip1: nvidia-settings should not be run with sudo
[11:06] <leissi> oh
[11:06] <indus> ActionParsnip1: i believe
[11:06] <leissi> thanks
[11:06] <ActionParsnip1> indus: its ran with gksude
[11:06] <leissi> I wondered how I'd run it as root :P
[11:06] <ActionParsnip1> indus: user access will not permit writing to org.conf
[11:06] <indus> ActionParsnip1: its available under system>administration
[11:06] <indus> ActionParsnip1: writing what to xorg?
[11:07] <SharpRain> Hello?
[11:07] <elvtars> 1984
[11:07] <ActionParsnip1> indus: if you write the settings it will be the resolution of the loading screen, login screen and hopefully will perpetuate into the session
[11:07] <anselm> pcbugfixer: But you can create a logical partition no problem. Simply delete sda3 and select locgical partition if you create the two new
[11:07] <ActionParsnip1> indus: yes, write to xorg.conf, if its ran as user this will not be allowed
[11:07] <indus> ActionParsnip1: the resolution sticks if done from without sudo also, i have nvidia card
[11:07] <RobotCow> !selinux
[11:07] <leissi> so, about those desktop effects
[11:07] <indus> ActionParsnip1: if you mean resolution of the monitor that is
[11:08] <RobotCow> oh that website is useless. ive been to it before.
[11:08] <ActionParsnip1> indus: well his isnt so doing the same thing as he's done before wont fix it will it
[11:08] <indus> ActionParsnip1: of course, i think this should not be used to edit xorg anyway, its for nvidia settings only
[11:08] <indus> ActionParsnip1: nvidia-xconfig is better for this isnt it
[11:08] <ActionParsnip1> indus: it writes proper settings to xorg.conf
[11:08] <RobotCow> how do i enable selinux in ubuntu? i have relabled the filesystem with the new policy, tried setenforce and editted the /etc/selinux/config to enable selinux and rebooted again.
[11:08] <SockPants> hi
[11:09] <SockPants> could someone help me out with permissions and users and such
[11:09] <ActionParsnip1> indus: as far as I know that writes ok stuff but the settings will need to be written once an acceptible display has been achieved
[11:09] <ActionParsnip1> indus: otherwise they wouldnt put the button in would they...
[11:10] <ActionParsnip1> SockPants: can you expand on what you are wantioing to achieve and what is actually happening
[11:10] <indus> ActionParsnip1: this tool doesnt write to xorg at all i believe, it only saves user settings for resolution if found in teh xorg file
[11:10] <indus> ActionParsnip1: its like the nvidia control panel in windows
[11:11] <ActionParsnip1> indus: http://tracylogan.com/uploads/Image/nvidia-settings.png bottom right button
[11:11] <indus> ActionParsnip1: if theire is no res in the xorg, it doesnt show in settings either
[11:11] <ActionParsnip1> indus: it can and may be necessary for some users
[11:11] <SockPants> ActionParsnip1: ok. i'm running a little server for experimenting with. i've set up NFS so i can access the files from my laptop. however, i usually can't edit anything i need to, for example httpd.conf or things in /var/www, so i want to set it so that nfs clients have permission to edit these files or create new ones is theres directories
[11:11] <Ashy> is there an ubuntu kernel package with xen compiled in?
[11:12] <indus> ActionParsnip1: hmm thanks, didnt remember that button, so in this case, clicking on that without ssudo prompts user to enter? or says re run tool with sudo?
[11:12] <SockPants> in the past i would simply keep chmod'ing everything 666, but i don't think thats the safest/ideal way to do it
[11:12] <ActionParsnip1> indus: the process will rn as the user, users dont have write access to xorg.conf (by default anyway) so will need to run the app with gksudo
[11:13] <indus> ActionParsnip1: i dont remember exact behaviour, ill let you know tomorrow
[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> indus: sometimes the settings in the users profile will set the display up nicely but if it keeps reverting to something else then writing the settings to xorg.conf usually fixes it
[11:13] <indus> ActionParsnip1: need to click on it and check this one
[11:13] <indus> ActionParsnip1: yeah
[11:13] <Myxb> hi, i've made some changes to .bashrc. how do i make them actual without restarting the current terminal?
[11:13] <llutz> indus: ActionParsnip1 you can save it to a different file as user and merge it to xorg.conf later. easier to use gksudo :)
[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> Myxb: source ~/.bashrc
[11:14] <pcbugfixer> anselm: OK so I delete the partition to resize and leave room to create logical partitions - how many do I need for the ubunto installation please ? 1st = primary for  "/" then - 2nd, 3rd, 4th, how many logical for ? and what size(s) under the primary partition 3 "/"
[11:14] <ActionParsnip1> Myxb: or you can close all terminals and open a new one
[11:14] <Myxb> ActionParsnip1: thanks!
[11:15] <SockPants> any ideas?
[11:15] <anselm> pcbugfixer: one swap one ext3
[11:15] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: my '/' uses about 3.5GB atm
[11:15] <anselm> !swap | pcbugfixer
[11:17] <testi_> I'd like to have a terminal or keyboardlistener that does sound on key events, like a typewriter. as realistic as possible.
[11:17] <pcbugfixer> ubottu: I have 2GB on my nVidia card and 4GB on the motherboard
[11:17] <kermit> testi_: so would i, please msg me if you find out how
[11:17] <SockPants> any ideas on how i can configure things so i can edit system files from an nfs client without too much effort
[11:17] <hanshenrik> just did sudo tasksel install lamp-server  & sudo apt-get install php5 & sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart  - and i have a index.php and a index.html; http://<IP_ADDRESS>/ == index.html by default (but specifying index.php works just fine as well)  is that normal?
[11:17] <testi_> kermit: k
[11:17] <kermit> testi_: even as realistic as a normal keyboard (i use a laptop) would be cool
[11:18] <SockPants> pcbugfixer: however much ram you have you'll still need to make a swap partition
[11:18] <testi_> kermit: yes.. :) I just started Penumbra Overture and I like that effect..
[11:18] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: how much space does the drive have?
[11:19] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: or do you have to play with
[11:20] <pcbugfixer> anselm: neil_d: ubottu: the partition dedicated for ubunto (Pt3) is 101677MB and do not need the space for anything else - I have other PC Worstations with Multi-Boot configurations and 5 other HDD for file and data storage
[11:21] <SockPants> i've set the nfs export so that i can read+write to the files i want to access, but i still don't seem to have permission to do so (from an nfs client) unless i chmod the file on the server to 666. how can i fix this?
[11:21] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: you'll need about 5Gb for /, 8Gb for swap (or at LEAST 4Gb) and the rest for /home
[11:22] <kermit> testi_: actually i did make a script that does it, but its polled so it sometimes misses keystrokes http://pastebin.com/f716e70ee
[11:22] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: that should be enough.
[11:22] <kermit> testi_: and, you'll need to edit that to point to your usleep, and get one if you dont have one... i dont know what package that comes with
[11:22] <indus> ActionParsnip1: 8 gb for swap??
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: youll need 1xRAM if yu want hibernate etc. Otherwise 2Gb will be adequate due to the 4Gb system ram you have
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> indus: 2xRAM
[11:23] <SockPants> hibernate files are stored in swap?
[11:23] <indus> ActionParsnip1: that was started in the days of 512 mb ram, 1 gb is more than enough unless proven otherwise
[11:23] <ActionParsnip1> indus: given
[11:23] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: 1 or 2gb ram shouold be enough
[11:23] <indus> ActionParsnip1: yeah 8gb forswap is surely overkill :)
[11:23] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: do you have another partition for swap?
[11:24] <ActionParsnip1> indus: depends on needs
[11:24] <joaopinto> using the old 2x ram does not hurt
[11:24] <indus> ActionParsnip1: also, the swap in linux is not used as in windows which does use it a lot
[11:24] <SockPants> nobody any ideas about permissions and such?
[11:24] <hanshenrik> what is the command for renaming?
[11:24] <ActionParsnip1> indus: depends on vc.swappiness value
[11:24] <hanshenrik> (in console)
[11:24] <indus> ActionParsnip1: my swap is always 50 mb max inspite of heavy gaming
[11:24] <SockPants> hanshenrik: mv
[11:24] <hanshenrik> ty
[11:24] <indus> ActionParsnip1: so not really sure how this swap works
[11:24] <ActionParsnip1> indus: set swappiness to 90, see how used it gets ;)
[11:25] <indus> ActionParsnip1: where do i set that?
[11:25] <joaopinto> indus, actually the swap on linux is heavily used, but in a difference sense, bringing performance improvements, freeing real RAM for active processes
[11:25] <ActionParsnip1> indus: dont set it to 90, your system will cry
[11:25] <gartral> what RTS games exist in the repos other than warzone 2100?
[11:26] <ActionParsnip1> indus: /etc/sysctl.conf
[11:26] <indus> joaopinto: i mean, i have been reading this 2x ram thing for some years, once i put swap just 300 mb and never ever had any problems
[11:26] <indus> i have ram 1 gb
[11:26] <ActionParsnip1> indus: vm.swappiness=1 here
[11:26] <onats> hi, what does segfaulting mean? bad memory?
[11:26] <ActionParsnip1> indus: i have 2Gb, if its hardly used set it to 5 or so, try keep apps in ram rather than swap
[11:26] <gartral> onats: bad code..
[11:26] <neil_d> onats: program did something bad.
[11:26] <indus> onats: not necessary unless ram is faulty
[11:27] <ActionParsnip1> onats: you can check your ram with the ram tester in grub
[11:27] <indus> ActionParsnip1: actually i havent yet find a good tool which will help me record history of ram and proc usage
[11:27] <indus> onats: program probab;ly accessed a wrong section of ram >
[11:27] <onats> ActionParsnip1, ok will do that later, coz i need to restart...
[11:28] <onats> im using Mysql-admin. it was working a couple of minutes ago
[11:28] <ActionParsnip1> indus: its just good to do, the lower swappiness will make the system keep apps in ram ather than swapping them out
[11:28] <indus> ActionParsnip1:ok will check this
[11:28] <indus> ActionParsnip1: ram is infinitely fastre than hdd of course
[11:28] <SockPants> is there a separate user for nfs or else how does nfs authenticate users?
[11:29] <ActionParsnip1> indus: definately so if you can keep the apps in there it will be slicker
[11:30] <ActionParsnip1> !nfs
[11:30] <pcbugfixer> so, what is the total for each logical partition, max ? and total needed for the whole of the ubuntu installation please - and what is the final min / max size for each logical partition - is my logic correct  in creating the "/" as the primary 3rd partition on my HDD and then create the other needed partitions as logical partitions under the "/" 3rd primary partition on the HDD ?
[11:30] <kermit> if you have a SSD, maybe set it much higher
[11:31] <ActionParsnip1> pcbugfixer: you can have 4 primary partitions, or 3 primary and one to be an extended partition which will hold logical partitions to give you possibly more partitons
[11:32] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: with the size of your pt3 you shouldn't need any other partitions.  but you will need a swap.
[11:32] <SockPants> ActionParsnip1: ive followed that to set up nfs, but i don't seem to need to log in anywhere, it just works
[11:33] <ActionParsnip1> SockPants: that factoid is all i know dude, sorry
[11:33] <SockPants> alright, np, i'm still googling
[11:35] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: so if I have 4 primary partitions, where and how in this partition do I create the other swap etc needed for the ubuntu installation ? ( this is where I started)
[11:35] <kisuke> godstar moved the jumper  now is showes up gonna try and format it now thanks
[11:37] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: got an old  10GB drive or so your not using?
[11:38] <neil_d> neil_d: otherwise you could make pt3 a set of logical drives
[11:39] <godstar> kisuke: Anytime.
[11:39] <incorrect> is there a standard way to set gcc to 4.2 without manually changing the simlinks, update-alternatives --gcc?
[11:40] <jrib> incorrect: leave default alone and specify CC in your environment when you ./configure
[11:41] <anselm> pcbugfixer: click quit, go to system >>  administration >> partition editor. Delete sda3. click apply. quit partition editor. click installation again. and then use the option use largest continuous space.
[11:41] <rexNebular> hi there. Are there any drawbacks using EXT4 with Jaunty 9.04? ext3 is default.
 - none that i have found so far. am using it on my EeePC with SSD
[11:42] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: Yup I have - how many do you want ? - "you could make pt3 a set of logical drives" sounds interesting ? doing this in or via the ubuntu install ?
[11:42] <incorrect> jrib, oh ok
[11:42] <rexNebular> @tombott thank you
[11:42] <b3rz3rk3r> rexbron, ext4 is brand new, and for small file transfer there is a little extra overhead-time on them. But for large file transfers and the journaling system (like EXT3) its great
[11:43] <godstar> rexNebular: there is a good article, on wikipedia about it. Like tombott, I too am running ext4 on eeePC w SSD and so far so good.
[11:43] <hanshenrik> just made a new folder, and activated "sharing", how can i access that shared folder from an other ubuntu pc?
[11:44] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: you put in a small extra drive and make it the swap, or use fdisk or something to remove pt3 and make the space 1 big partition for / and a smaller swap.
[11:44] <rexNebular> I'm using ext4 with Seagate SATA2  drive, mostly files around 50-4700mb in size.
[11:45] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: I think it can be done via the installer using the manual setup option.   I would be tempted to do it before hand though.
[11:47] <pawel> speaking polish ?
[11:48] <liemtran> hello
[11:48] <pcbugfixer> neil_d:  system has 6 HDD and 2 DVD-RW (4 x SATA HDD, 2 IDE HDD PM and SM and DVD-RW on ps and ss IDE channels) have room for 1 more SAT and 1 IDE through PCI card but do not want to go that way - too many devices in tower case already - thanks
[11:49] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: oh! that is a lot.   so you need to edit the partition table.
[11:51] <jmkgreen> Hi - we're running a dapper server here and dist-upgraded. Went from 2.6.15-26-386 to 2.6.15-54-386. Problem is that the newer kernel hangs at 'Uncompressing kernel' yet the older kernel works fine.
[11:51] <jmkgreen> Any ideas?
[11:52] <kromekTM> hej
[11:52] <incorrect> jrib, if you do export CC=4.2 you get sanity check failures
[11:52] <jrib> incorrect: you provide a valid path (i.e. gcc-4.2) to gcc, not a number
[11:53] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: do you need help doing that?
[11:53] <incorrect> jrib, /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 and CPP to /usr/bin/g++-4.2
[11:53] <jrib> incorrect: if that's what you want
[11:54] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: I need to rethink all this - my other systems - sys4 boots into XP Pro sp3,  Vista Ultimate and Windows 7 Ultimate / sys2 boots Win95b, Win ME and Win 200 sp4 / system 3 boots XP Pro sp3 and I am trying to install Server 2008 and Ubuntu - with Ubuntu giving me more grieve than any other installations including the 2 Power MAC's I have.
[11:54] <incorrect> jrib, there are issues with with stuff i am trying to compile
[11:54] <graingert> pcbugfixer, what grieves you young man
[11:56] <pcbugfixer> graingert: thanks for that - after 3 hours on this chat, I needed a laugh - have a daughter 37 and a son 46 - so I much appreciated "pcbugfixer, what grieves you young man"
[11:56] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: I notice that all your other systems are windows based.  It is just that the disk you are trying to use at present doesn't allow for any more partitions.
[11:57] <Kryo1> why does my PC beep when I try to use tab completion in terminal?
[11:57] <jrib> incorrect: see note here: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Setting-Output-Variables.html
[11:58] <graingert> pcbugfixer, I am a uni fresher :-p
[11:58] <graingert> pcbugfixer, what's the problem you having?
[11:58] <graingert> pcbugfixer, I only just joined
[11:58] <graingert> Kryo1, becuase it's meant to
[11:59] <graingert> Kryo1, never used a tellytype?
[11:59] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: I haven't tried it, but you should be able to without a swap partition.  then once install add a swap file instead of a partition.
[11:59] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: s/able to/able to setup/
[12:00] <Kryo1> graingert: I don't understand
[12:00] <cheater99> hey guys
[12:00] <cheater99> what's the keyboard shortcut for switching between tabs?
[12:00] <graingert> Kryo1, your computer beeps when you make a typo
[12:00] <cheater99> like say in gedit when i have two files open and want to switch between them
[12:00] <graingert> cheater99, depends what software you are using
[12:00] <cheater99> really? that's terrible
[12:00] <graingert> cheater99, not really
[12:00] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: might e alt+shift+tab
[12:01] <ashok_> i want winamp software for ubuntu where can find can any one tell me the link
[12:01] <graingert> cheater99, I mean you can customise it
[12:01] <neil_d> see http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/s1-swap-adding.html for adding a swap file
[12:01] <Kryo1> graingery: oh...my tab completion doesn't work
[12:01] <graingert> ashok_, clue's in the name
[12:01] <graingert> ashok_, WINamk
[12:01] <graingert> ashok_, WINamp*
[12:01] <cheater99> ActionParsnip1, that just brings up the alt-tab menu but it cycles it the other way around
[12:01] <Kryo1> sorry graingert
[12:01] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: there is no agreed standard for that shortcut so apps are free to use what they wish
[12:01] <cheater99> graingert, how would i customize it?
[12:01] <graingert> ashok_, everyone will hate me for this but try audacoius
[12:01] <ashok_> winamp player
[12:02] <graingert> ashok_, "audacious" it does winamp
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: quick websearch yields: http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/KeyboardShortcuts
[12:02] <graingert> ashok_, it will wine
[12:02] <hanshenrik> been following https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/internet/C/networking-shares.html, using the "Shared Folders application", but how do i connect to it?
[12:02] <graingert> ashok_, but you are off your head
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: ctrl+alt + pg Up/Down
[12:02] <cheater99> ActionParsnip1, ^^ thanks
[12:02] <avemowvip> bon, maintenant il me faudrait le lien pour aller sur ubuntu fr
[12:02] <bhuey> folks, I'm trying to build a kernel with make-kpkg but it's failing with a segv
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: websearching solves all
[12:02] <bhuey> any clues ?
[12:02] <cheater99> is that a standard thing that is used in other apps in linux?
[12:02] <cheater99> ActionParsnip1,  right ^^
[12:02] <graingert> ashok_, you can't run Windows programs natively on Linux you need an app layer
[12:02] <DJones> !fr | avemowvip
[12:02] <jrib> hanshenrik: what os are you connecting with?
[12:02] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: yup the standard for windows is 4 - I know all that - also in BootItNG I can choose to use more - this however means that I am then restricted to using the BootItNG partition utility which I do not want to use and prefer to use PartitonMagic 8.05 for all such work in that this I can use on my and my customers PC's and pre-partition the 320, 500 and 1000 MB HDD's prior to loading (Installing) them on new PC Stations and installing t
[12:02] <graingert> cheater99, what standards?
[12:03] <hanshenrik> jrib: from ubuntu 9.04 to ubuntu 9.04
[12:03] <graingert> cheater99, I don't think we have those things round here
[12:03] <cheater99> graingert, i'm not sure what you mean.
[12:03] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: try it is all I can say, firefox has a key for it too and even a 3D tab switcher like the window switcher in Vista
[12:03] <jrib> hanshenrik: there should be some sort of "network locations" entry in your Places menu
[12:03] <graingert> cheater99, standards...
[12:03] <cheater99> great
[12:03] <graingert> !wine | ashok_
[12:03] <cheater99> graingert, i was just wondering if alt-c^pgup and pgdn are used in other apps
[12:03] <graingert> !winamp
[12:03] <ashok_> i want music player where can i download it but not a default players in ubuntu
[12:04] <hanshenrik> jrib: see "Network" and "Connect to Server..."
[12:04] <cheater99> ActionParsnip1, never used vista :)
[12:04] <ActionParsnip1> !players | ashok_
[12:04] <jrib> hanshenrik: try network
[12:04] <graingert> ashok_, why?
[12:04] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: it moves them round like a 3D pack of cards
[12:04] <Tech-desk> )))))
[12:04] <cheater99> graingert, do you think standards in user interfaces are detrimental?
[12:04] <graingert> ashok_, also I don't understand you
[12:04] <graingert> cheater99, no only in GUI's
[12:04] <cheater99> ActionParsnip1, i've seen that once on linux :) cool thing
[12:04] <hanshenrik> there i got up a window showing "Windows Network" (only)
[12:04] <canbrais> hallo everybody
[12:04] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: You can have only 4 primary partition... but you can take any primary partition and split it into any number of logical partitions.. this is a standard used by Windows and Linux.
[12:04] <indus> canbrais: hallo
[12:05] <jrib> hanshenrik: and when you click on it?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: http://www.techmixer.com/foxtab-attractive-quick-switch-between-firefox-tab/
[12:05] <graingert> cheater99, mechadiversity is important
[12:05] <Kryo1> graingert, I understand now what you mean by typo...dir names are case sensitive
[12:05] <canbrais> hows life?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> cheater99: its for folks who get their jollys from pointless eyecandy
[12:05] <hanshenrik> jrib: hey now it works xD (tired it a minute ago, then it just gave some error)
[12:05] <jrib> hanshenrik: cool
[12:05] <ashok_> i want several website for ubuntu application
[12:05] <hanshenrik> jrib: well thanks
[12:05] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: I had a drive with I think it was 16 partitions with both Windows98 and Linux on them
[12:05] <graingert> Kryo1, yeah blame Windows for being strange with there FS's
[12:06] <graingert> ashok_, dude you even there?
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> ashok_: a lot of apps you will come across are in the repos
[12:06] <canbrais> ive been trying to download ubuntu 9 and well ..
[12:06] <cheater99> graingert, so why not have the left click do a different thing in every application? say let's have it bring up the context menu in firefox, let's have it select (but not open) files in nautilus, let's have it select and open files in another file browser, and let's have it turn on the scroll tool in gvim - what do you think?
[12:06] <cheater99> is that mechadiverse enough for you?
[12:06] <jrib> hanshenrik: no problem, there are command line clients (smbclient) and you can do "smb://server/share" in nautilus's location bar as well
[12:06] <graingert> cheater99, you have the source code
[12:06] <graingert> cheater99, you can make it do whatever you like
[12:06] <cheater99> but it's not mechadiverse right now
[12:06] <cheater99> you should be raising your fist :)
[12:06] <graingert> cheater99, perhaps
[12:07] <rexNebular> what are the optimum sizes for partitions /, /home, /swap   on a 750gb drive 3gb ram
[12:07] <graingert> cheater99, actually this is already supported:  let's have it select (but not open) files in nautilus, let's have it select and open files in another file browser
[12:07] <canbrais> ubuntu was my first linux op when i started learning abpout linux
[12:07] <remoteCTR1> can anybody recommend me a really goog stereo speaker system?
[12:07] <pipa> Anyone got recomendations for a bit torrent client which uses .metalink files for downloading testing iso's, thanks
[12:07] <cheater99> amazing
[12:08] <ActionParsnip1> rexNebular: i'd say 10Gb for /, 2Gb swap, the rest for /home
[12:08] <cheater99> let's have every application confuse the hell out of you so that you can't actually get any work done and instead have to learn every user interface from ground up
[12:08] <ActionParsnip1> !ot | remoteCTR
[12:08] <L3dPlatedLinux> was wondering if there was a way to make a nfs mount auto unmount after say 20 mins of inactivity ?
[12:08] <graingert> cheater99, ever heard of vi?
[12:08] <remoteCTR1> hi there ActionParsnip1 i know its a little offtopic, sry...
[12:08] <alex___> hey everyone
[12:08] <dual> Any good software or website where I can make something like this? http://www.bibalex.org/Libraries/images/15000/Org_Chart.jpg
[12:09] <cheater99> graingert, is that a point?
[12:09] <rexNebular> isn't 10gb / partition small for 64bit 9.04
[12:09] <graingert> cheater99, a point to me I think
[12:09] <cheater99> so the fact that i have heard of vi proves something to you? cool.
[12:09]  * cheater99 goes to do something else
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> stupid win32 pidgin, crashes if you even look at the tab key too often
[12:10] <cheater99> ActionParsnip, :)
[12:10] <alex___> rexNebular: not really
[12:10] <rexNebular> ActionParsnip: welcome back. Isn't 10gb / partition small for 64bit 9.04?
[12:11] <hanshenrik> sudo cp * /var/www     - will that copy all files/folders/folder cotains in current folder to /var/www?
[12:11] <alex___> bah! if linux was just a *little* better i could stick with it for personal use
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> rexNebular: my 64bit desktop occupys about 3Gb only
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> rexNebular: so 10Gb will be plenty
[12:11] <graingert> alex___, you have the source
[12:11] <rexNebular> k thx
[12:11] <alex___> hanshenrik: use the -r recursive tag
[12:12] <hanshenrik> sudo cp -r * /var/www     - will that copy all files/folders/folder cotains in current folder to /var/www?
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> rexNebular: ubuntu isnt full of bloat and crap like windows, so you can get away wilth small partitions, you could even use 5Gb and be ok
[12:12] <tavi> hy
[12:12] <tavi> a game similar to caeasar 3 in linux
[12:12] <alex___> graingert: they're doing a great job with the source, i think i just want the best of both worlds
[12:13] <graingert> alex___, I use it too
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> tavi: globulous, freeciv
[12:13] <rexNebular> ActionParsnip: that's why I purged all my workstations yesterday. I asked size because I did not want size problems while using VirtualBox or something.
[12:14] <alex___> graingert: at work it would be a pain to use windows, at home it's the reverse. if only things were simple
[12:14] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: System3 was my test station with 16 primary partitions on 6 HDD plus 2 drive letters for the DVD's plus 4 for the card reader and 1 for the FDD and one for the Zip = 24 and only 2 left for externals hence my revamp of every workstation

[12:19] <graingert> pcbugfixer, should be fine
[12:19] <ashok_> where can i find flash games for ubuntu
[12:19] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: first you need to delete pt3... then create an extended partition in its place... then create logical partitions (which will be in the extended partition)
[12:19] <graingert> pcbugfixer, format partition 3 as an logical volume
[12:20] <marcosRz> By using ppa will I increase the chance of breakage in UPGRADES of the distribution (ex : jaunty --> karmic) ?

[12:25] <aaron11_> iceroot: im trying to connect from a linux
[12:25] <graingert> whit2spring, too beta
[12:25] <graingert> whit2spring, atm
[12:25] <Shawn-> ziroday Whats the right place
[12:25] <kisuke> aaron11_ ##windows is the windows channel try "/join ##windows
[12:25] <iceroot> aaron11_: doesnt matter
[12:25] <neil_d> aaron11_: have you tried ping yet to test ip number etc.
[12:25] <graingert> bazhang, what about the wtfpl?
[12:25] <whit2spring> graingert, ok
[12:26] <rexNebular> Shawn: check Python.org for "Python Ports"
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> aaron11_: can you telnet to the port?
[12:26] <aaron11_> ActionParsnip: no not from the linux
[12:26] <bazhang> graingert, please stay on topic or join the suggested channel to discuss.
[12:26] <ziroday> whit2spring: erm there are several available if you google for "chrome extensions". Not sure how many of those would run on ubuntu however
[12:26] <graingert> bazhang, dude
[12:26] <aaron11_> neil_d: yes i tried pinging
[12:26] <whit2spring> ziroday, ok thx man

[12:27] <yogg> Hi, what software should i use to monitor a hw raid on ubuntu 8.04 64bit?
[12:27] <ziroday> yogg: mdadm I would imagine
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> aaron11_: can you pingthe server by name and / or IP?
[12:27] <graingert> pcbugfixer, http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem
[12:27] <chris8> Hey room!  is there a specialty audio help channel?
[12:28] <kisuke> http://paste.ubuntu.com/282067/ any help trouble shooting gparted error messages?
[12:28] <iceroot> aaron11_: can you run ssh local on the windows-pc? ssh localhost
[12:28] <aaron11_> ActionParsnip: i can ping it with Munna-PC and 115.X.X.X.X
[12:28] <mcmlxxi> is it better to download printer drivers from the manufacturer's site or openprinting.org?
[12:28] <yogg> mdadm is ony for softwarerads if I understand the wiki right?
[12:28] <pcbugfixer> neil_d: ActionParsnip1: anselm: ubottu: and graingert: - thanks for all your suggestions - I need a break, been here since 5:30 - so I will have a stiff White Heather (25 year old) and think about all the suggestions - and try to work out the simplified version of a clear set of instructions from all your input - thanks again.
[12:28] <iceroot> mcmlxxi: i guess depending on the printer
[12:29] <ziroday> mcmlxxi: the printing setup application should do that automatically for you
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  id be suprised iof you even find any on the printer makers sites..
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> aaron11_: ok thats good, then some firewall is blocking the connection or the service isnt running, or its running on a different port you expect
[12:29] <graingert> pcbugfixer, cool
[12:29] <neil_d> pcbugfixer: ok bye
[12:29] <graingert> pcbugfixer, I will buy a beer to celebrate
[12:29] <mcmlxxi> ziroday, do what?
[12:29] <ziroday> mcmlxxi: download the printer driver
[12:30] <mcmlxxi> let me try
[12:30] <aaron11_> ActionParsnip: no i configured it properly to accept services tcp and port 22 and 23 so it should work , oh and btw its running right now
[12:30] <anselm> pcbugfixer: bye
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> aaron11_: either way its not supported here as it is a windows app so you'd best ask in ##windows
[12:30] <chris8> hey room;  I've installed Realplayer 11 but it caused distortion on all my other audio progs... Uninstalled Realplayer but distortion remains; i've put the audio driver settings back to normal and rebooted and there's still distortion... there's even distortion on the sound that plays when Ububunt loads :S  help me
[12:31] <graingert> chris8, dude, RealPlayer?
[12:31] <chris8> it was for porn
[12:31] <graingert> chris8, how did you install it
[12:31] <chris8> i know i know
[12:31] <rexNebular> lol
[12:31] <yogg> ziroday: the wiki says mdadm is only for softwarerayds. Or is there a way to monitor my hw raid with mdadm?
[12:32] <graingert> chris8, uh consider using vlc/mplayer
[12:32] <chris8> Graingert: as bin...
[12:32] <Crosswing> Hi. Does Brasero finalize a CD by default? If so, how do I enable multi session?
[12:32] <bullgard4> What command determines the name of my wireless network card?
[12:32] <nadarilla> you enable the enabling machine
[12:32] <graingert> chris8, so it could have done ANYTHING to your system?!
[12:32] <chris8> GrGert: i normally use mplayer... for my videos
[12:32] <graingert> chris8, anway have you got the medibuntu repos
[12:32] <ziroday> yogg: no, not sure about hardware raid sorry
[12:32] <ziroday> bullgard4: the driver does
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> i will alsohave to add in . realplayer is proberly not needed. I can play most every real media file ive found with mplayer or vlc.
[12:32] <chris8> GG: yuppers all medibunti
[12:33] <yogg> ziroday: ok thx
[12:33] <kisuke> http://paste.ubuntu.com/282067/ any help trouble shooting gparted error messages?
[12:33] <graingert> chris8, ok well you might have to re-install
[12:33] <pcbugfixer> will keep you all posted when I have the instructions worked out - bye :-D
[12:33] <mcmlxxi> ziroday, it says Unable to connect to CIFS host
[12:33] <graingert> chris8, .bin installers can do untold damage
[12:33] <panfist> i have a bad issue...my ubuntu server disk is full but i dont know what to delete. how can i tell disk usage by folder from the command line?
[12:33] <graingert> chris8, especially at root access
[12:33] <bullgard4> ziroday: How can I determine what the driver of my wireless network card is?
[12:33] <chris8> GG: reinstall the whole operating system?
[12:33] <ziroday> chris8: does this happen when you create a new user?
[12:33] <ziroday> bullgard4: what card is it?
[12:34] <ziroday> chris8: (as in create a new test user, play sounds. Distortion?)
[12:34] <chris8> Ziroday: the sound distortion is affecting all past users
[12:34] <graingert> chris8, yep, that'l teach you for installing non-repo software
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> panfist:  theres some apt commands taht can remove/clean the /var/cache/archives directory. that can get quite large at times
[12:34] <graingert> chris8 ;-)
[12:34] <chris8> GG: thanks :S
[12:34] <yogg> Has anyone an idea which software I should use to monitor a hw raid?
[12:34] <bullgard4> ziroday: It is an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2].
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> panfist: to clear old debs out to free space run: sudo apt-get clean
[12:34] <anselm> pcbugfixer: iwconfig will show you
[12:35] <ziroday> bullgard4: right well then its most likely the err
[12:35] <chris8> GG : oh god reinstalling took forever
[12:35] <chris8> Ziroday: think i may be able to fix my sound problem?
[12:35] <bullgard4> ziroday: I beg your pardon? I cannot see any error.
[12:35]  * Dr_Willis wonders how apt-get autoclean differs from apt-get clean
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> clean 'really really' cleans it out. :) autoclean just removed some.
[12:36] <ziroday> bullgard4: sorry was trying to remember the name. The driver is ipw2200, it should appear in lsmod
[12:36] <ziroday> chris8: nope, sorry! But I can make the reinstall easier ::)
[12:36] <panfist> dr_willis and actionparsnip, thanks
[12:36] <anselm> bullgard4: iwconfig will show you the driver and the card name
[12:37] <chris8> Ziroday: i'll take anything!  I just upgraded this OS to jaunty from 8.04....
[12:37] <chris8> took forever
[12:37] <mauro> hi guys, does anyone know how to gzip all files and directories in one gzip file?
[12:38] <ziroday> chris8: I can imagine. What you need to do is backup your /home/<username> folder to an external drive. Upon reinstall create a new user with the same name and copy that folder back across (including hidden folders) and you're documents and settings should be preserved
[12:38] <ziroday> chris8: that and head over to synaptic and get a package list, so you can load that in next install. Or you may want to start fresh
[12:40] <chris8> Ziroday:  can't i just reinstall jaunty from the website?
[12:40] <chris8> Ziroday: or will it only download what it *thinks* should be updated?
[12:41] <chris8> Ziroday: i did a full OS upgrade from intrepid to jaunty online w/o having to backup any local files...
[12:41] <ziroday> chris8: no, no. You copy across your /home/username folder and a package *list* to your external drive.  That way your settings and documents and installed programs will all be saved
[12:41] <mcmlxxi> ziroday, when I try to print something, it says Unable to connect to CIFS host and NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME. should I ask in #samba or what?
[12:42] <ziroday> chris8: OS reinstalls and OS upgrades are very different
[12:42] <ziroday> mcmlxxi: sure
[12:42] <chris8> ziroday: so to reinstall i hafta format the harddrive etc...
[12:43] <shadowmancer> hey all
[12:43] <shadowmancer> i'm looking for some clarification here
[12:43] <ziroday> chris8: not format, but overwrite. You can format if you want to
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  you may want to check your /etc/samba/smb.conf to be sure its set to the same workgroup as you are wanting to access
[12:43] <NinjA-77> Jason_0123
[12:43] <shadowmancer> i got 9.04 on an intel celeron 2.6 single core
[12:43] <shadowmancer> and its runnning like windows vista but slower\
[12:43] <aaron11_> ActionParsnip: noone is responding
[12:43] <shadowmancer> its got a gig of ram
[12:43] <chris8> ziroday:  can't i just somehow completely reinstall all the audio from jaunty? :(
[12:43] <mcmlxxi> Dr_Willis, my own?
[12:43] <shadowmancer> and a radeon 9250
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: what video card?
[12:43] <ziroday> chris8: nope
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  yes.. and be sure the names are set the same.....
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: have you installed at ATi driver for your card yet?
[12:44] <chris8> ziroday: what about some hidden setting that i may be overlooking?
[12:44] <ziroday> chris8: you'll have to go find that :)
[12:44] <mcmlxxi> Dr_Willis, they are the same
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  windows boxs like to default to one name.. and ubuntu defaults to a different one i recall
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> aaron11_: its not an ubuntu issue so isnt supported here
[12:44] <chris8> ziroday: is there a special audio help channel?
[12:44] <shadowmancer> yes
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  i normally always install the full samba server package  and other related tools also. could be somthing is missing.
[12:44] <ziroday> chris8: #ubuntu-audio or #ubuntu-sound perhaps
[12:44] <shadowmancer> and even when i was running the onboard it was the same
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: are you running desktop effects per chance?
[12:44] <chris8> ziroday:  thank you for the hellp :P
[12:45] <shadowmancer> no made sure not to
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  i also always give the linux users samba passwords identical to their windows passwords with 'sudo smbpasswd -a username'
[12:45] <shadowmancer> no made sure not to
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: could use a lighter DE like LXDE, XFCE, Fluxbox etc
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: can use $USER for that ;)
[12:45] <shadowmancer> can't
[12:45] <Bendt> ? Cannot disable screensaver in ubuntu 9.04. Kiosk computer keeps turning screen black.
[12:46] <shadowmancer> my gf needs the comp
[12:46] <shadowmancer> its hers
[12:46] <shadowmancer> and she wants to run WoW :(
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  i do it for all the users...   all 5 of us. :)
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: WoW will still run no matter what DE you use
[12:46] <mcmlxxi> Dr_Willis, but I used to be able to print before I upgraded to jaunty (I think that was the time)
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> mcmlxxi:  check the samba logs and cups logs I guess..
[12:46] <shadowmancer> serious i thought wine would cause a couple issues without gnome
[12:46] <shadowmancer> or so i assumed
[12:47] <shadowmancer> and i don't think its the DE
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> shadowmancer:   compiz Can cause issues with games in wine
[12:47] <bullgard4> anselm: Where do you find in http://pastebin.ca/1585848 the driver and the card name?
[12:47] <incorrect> can anyone get the movie trailers on apple to play in their browser?
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: none at all, a lighter DE will just be more responsive on the desktop, when the game runs it will be fullscren so it doesnt matter
[12:47] <shadowmancer> like i run firefox and it swallows the resources like michael jackson and little boys
[12:47] <bazhang> shadowmancer, that is not appropriate for here
[12:47] <tavi> how can i switch from an aplciation to another ?
[12:48] <shadowmancer> i apologize
[12:48] <Blizzerand> tavi : aplciation ?? , whats thaT
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: it does that, try a lighter browser like swiftfox, kazenchase or firepup
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: or try opera, chromium etc
[12:48] <shadowmancer> what about galeon
[12:48] <mcmlxxi> Dr_Willis, this is the latest message in /var/log/cups/access.log localhost - - [30/Sep/2009:14:42:53 +0300] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 163 Get-Job-Attributes successful-ok
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: that too, or midori
[12:49] <Jyxt> shadowmancer: dillo is a good lightweight browser as well
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: despite what people think, there are more browsers than firefox
[12:49] <tavi> from an aplicattion
[12:49] <anselm> bullgard4: sorry On my computer it's there
[12:49] <brijith> Please help me ... I have some issues with my graphics, graphics driver is intel graphics media accelarator  (Intel GMA 3100) Max resolution 2048*1536*32 bpp(@75Hz) Horizondal: 127.5KHz,Vertical: 75Hz
[12:50] <shadowmancer> yeah i know i would tell her to use lynx but i think she would kill me :P
[12:50] <shadowmancer> or atleast beat me
[12:50] <bullgard4> anselm: "Works for me" is seldomly a good answer.
[12:50] <mcmlxxi> tavi, alt+tab
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: try firepup or swiftfox, they are lighter in ram
[12:50] <tavi> don't work
[12:50] <tavi> that's in windows
[12:50] <Bendt> I have a computer on a 40" tv, running 9.04. It is supposed to act as a info-kiosk - pretty much just showing a slideshow all the time, but the damn thing keep turning screensaver on  (or atleast turning screen off). PLEASE HELP
[12:50] <Jyxt> links is a good browser as well...has gui interface
[12:51] <mcmlxxi> tavi, try Super key+Tab
[12:51] <shadowmancer> i don't think its a ram issue
[12:51] <tavi> super?
[12:51] <mcmlxxi> tavi, it works in linux too
[12:51] <shadowmancer> i got a gig of it and 2 gigs of swap
[12:51] <mcmlxxi> windows key
[12:51] <tavi> mcmlxxi: at me no
[12:51] <shadowmancer> and my swap is never touched
[12:51] <tavi> a
[12:51] <tavi> yes
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: you can set your swappiness to 1 and it should be nicer
[12:52] <Blizzerand> !links
[12:53] <shadowmancer> i just let ubuntu do that for me, its my gf's not mine :P i got a laptop with 4 gigs of swap i gave that 200mb of swap
[12:54] <mcmlxxi> tavi, under System > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts, find the line that begins with Move between windows
[12:54] <shadowmancer> i mean
[12:54] <shadowmancer> 4 gig of ram and 200mb of swap
[12:54] <Blizzerand> !info mediawiki
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: i just give 2gb regardless
[12:54] <Bendt> how do i disable screensaver in ubuntu 9.04
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> Bendt: system -> prefs -> screensaver
[12:55] <Blizzerand> Why is it that mediawiki is not updated to 1.15.1
[12:55] <bazhang> Blizzerand, ubuntu is not a rolling release distro
[12:55] <brijith> Bendt: Go to System->preferences->screensavers there you can  disable screensavees ,, :)
[12:55] <shadowmancer> i personally question swap mainly cause of the performance issues it causes
[12:55] <shadowmancer> i've read some things saying its not noticable but its like\
[12:56] <tavi> can't do it
[12:56] <shadowmancer> yeah maybe but better safe then sorry
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: if you set the swappiness to a low value the system will try and keep the running system in ram rather than use the swap
[12:56] <Blizzerand> bazhang : IT may not be but 1.15.1 was released long time ago and ubuntu repos are still having the old 1.13
[12:57] <brijith> Please help me ... I have some issues with my graphics, graphics driver is intel graphics media accelarator  (Intel GMA 3100) Max resolution 2048*1536*32 bpp(@75Hz) Horizondal: 127.5KHz,Vertical: 75Hz

[12:58] <ActionParsnip> Blizzerand: there are PPAs with it all over
[12:58] <iceroot> if i am running ./configure and make but nocht makeinstall (i am not root) can is use that program? is makeinstall just copying the files to /etc/ /usr/ and so on?
[12:59] <kisuke> !nivida |brijith
[12:59] <shadowmancer> i dunno whats going on even when it says 0 things are going i can sometimes type faster then it can refresh
[12:59] <Blizzerand> ActionParsnip : Not I mean can't they just update the repos
[12:59] <brijith> !nvidea
[12:59] <kisuke> !ati |brijith
[12:59] <bazhang> its nvidia
[12:59] <kisuke> brijith that help?
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: make compiles the source with the config from configure, make install is the only step needing root (assuming you are compiling in your own home folder) as you will be writing to where you dont have write access
[13:00] <brijith> kisuke: thanks let me read ... :)
[13:00] <kisuke> what is the command to write zero to a drive?
[13:00] <kisuke> brijith no prblem
[13:00] <Jyxt> kisuke: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda
[13:00] <shadowmancer> on a laptop with less specs then this piece of crap i was pulling 60fps everytime with hardy
[13:00] <Jyxt> or whatever
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> kisuke: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<partition name>
[13:00] <shadowmancer> i can't fathom whats going on
[13:00] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: so i only need root because it wants to access /etc/ and so on. if i say, use /home for the installation, i dont need root?
[13:00] <shadowmancer> is it something with 9.04 is it the vista of ubuntu
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> kisuke: the command will destroy ANY data on the thing you use in the command so be CAREFUL
[13:00] <kisuke> jyxt actionparsnip1 thanks
[13:01] <guest_007> How to limit user's memory usage?
[13:01] <shadowmancer> and i apologize if thats offensive
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: correct, the make you can do as yourself provided you have write access where you are compiling
[13:01] <zdravka> how to add support for specific language for non-sudo user?
[13:01] <bullgard4> ziroday: Thank you for your help.
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> shadowmancer: try some better configs, there are guides all over
[13:02] <kisuke> actionparsnip i know nothing on the drive except a swap found this to fix a short read error
[13:02] <anselm> bullgard4: does lshw -C network doesn't work for you
[13:02] <bullgard4> zdravka: Depends on the version of your Ubuntu. At the log-in screen you can select your preferrred locale.
[13:02] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: thank you alot, then i will do some "make" instead of "apt-get" to learn more about it. (its just a test-vm)
[13:03] <guest_007> ulimit -m: max memory size         (kbytes, -m) 1048576 #  but he still can get off that limit! how to fix?
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> kisuke: sudo fdisk -l    will show you your disks and partitions, you use those names (E.g. /dev/sdb7) to write zeros to the partiton
[13:03] <aaron11_> how do you do ipconfig in linux
[13:03] <tavi> i changed

[13:03] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: ifconfig
[13:03] <bazhang> aaron11_, ifconfig
[13:03] <tavi> except lincity
[13:03] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: it is i just want to learn to build something from source, its just for testing in a vm
[13:04] <aaron11_> bazhang: i know but that information is hard to understand

[13:07] <bullgard4> anselm: '~$ sudo lshw -C network' works ok. --  Thank you.
[13:08] <larsemil> found a good conkyrc on the net that i want to use. but i get sh: battery_drain: not found when running conky.  any idea what to do about that?
[13:08] <bullgard4> zdravka: In Ubuntu 9.04's login screen you will see in the lower left a menu. Open it. One menu item lets you select your preferred locale.
[13:08] <leaf-sheep> !conky | larsemil
[13:09] <leaf-sheep> larsemil: Join #conky -- Experts with conky scripts can be found there.
[13:09] <larsemil> leaf-sheep: they are a sleep...
[13:09] <larsemil> 7wc
[13:09] <zdravka> bullgard4: thank you. one general question: how to administer non-sudoers from console... where can I beginn, any link?
[13:10] <zamba> zdravka: what do you mean by administer?
[13:10] <leaf-sheep> larry1: Well it is 7:09 AM here. :)  In the afternoon/evening, perhaps.
[13:10] <zdravka> zamba: add privileges or install software for example
[13:10] <testi_> MonoDevelop doesn't seem to complete my code nor does it seem to detect at editing time if it will compile.
[13:11] <testi_> Though code autocompletion is enabled..
[13:12] <prospire> whats the command in ubuntu to zip a file?
[13:12] <mazpe> unzip
[13:13] <mazpe> i'm hoping that zip is not a ubuntu thing eh =)
[13:13] <prospire> mazpe: can you give me the whole command?
[13:13] <mazpe> man unzip
[13:13] <mazpe> its not that hard dude.. really
[13:13] <mazpe> unzip file.zip come on
[13:14] <sipior> prospire: "zip", if you are in fact looking to archive some files.
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> zip and unzip for zip archives...     others for .bz2 and so forth
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> !zip
[13:14] <prospire> k, I'll see to it
[13:14] <prospire> bye all
[13:14] <mazpe> thats just straight lazy
[13:15] <yogg> how can i monitor a hw raid on ubuntu 8.04 64bit?
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> mazpe: KISS ideology
[13:16] <mazpe> ActionParsnip: perhaps KIRS = Keep It Really Stupid
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> mazpe: i have an abstraction for zip that looks at the filename given to it then unzips it with the appropriate tool
[13:16] <leissi> hmm
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> mazpe: really super lazy
[13:16] <leissi> any idea why my flash performance is really low?
[13:17] <leissi> for example youtube videos are choppy as hell
[13:17] <mazpe> ActionParsnip: thats cool though
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> leissi: have you installed video drivers
[13:17] <leissi> yes
[13:17] <[newbie]> CIAO
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> leissi: do you have any other flash plugins installed like gnash or swfdec
[13:17] <[newbie]> !LIST
[13:17] <iceroot> leissi: flash is not stepping the cpu correctly. have a look at google for flash + stepping + ubuntu. i am at work so i cant browse the web, sorry
[13:19] <prappl93> Is there a way to stop my system from beeping when I turn it off, or is that how Ubuntu is made to work?
[13:20] <aaron11_> SockPants: wow your here too
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> prappl93: blacklist pcspkr
[13:21]  * Dr_Willis seconds the blacklisting of pcspkr
[13:21] <Comnenus> Does anyone know how to use dpkg to install packagse but skip the config menus?  I have to install the package on multiple machines and will drop in the config files later.
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> i have to do that on one laptop. .or it beeps LOUDLY on shutdown
[13:22] <prappl93> ActionParsnip, how do I do that
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> !blacklist
[13:23] <Jyxt> will the command: tar -cvvfpP /mnt/usb/everything.tar /
[13:23] <Jyxt> backup everything?
[13:24] <iceroot> !backup | Jyxt
[13:24] <torgrimt> Jyxt: cd /mnt/usb && find -xdev / | xargs cpio -p . is much smarter ;)
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> torgrimt: nice :)
[13:25] <torgrimt> ActionParsnip: might want to tweek some of the options, just took it out of my head
[13:25] <torgrimt> ActionParsnip: but find -xdev is for not taking all the other filesystems. so you dont end up copying /mnt/usb aswell ;)
[13:25] <prappl93> ActionParsnip, what does that do entirely? Does that stop all system beeps but keep my sound card working?
[13:26] <Jyxt> torgrimt: what kind of file does that make? and when restoring whats the command?
[13:26] <leissi> hmm
[13:26] <leissi> now normal sized video works on youtube but fullscreen is terribly bad
[13:26] <mazpe> does this makes sense of good use of a 500G? http://paste.ubuntu.com/282129/
[13:26] <mazpe> 500GB HD
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> prappl93: theres an annoying module called pcspkr that makes noises, if you blacklist it then if the system tries to load it the kernel will not allow it as it is forbade
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> mazpe:  do  You really need to  use lvm? some times it can be more hassle then its worth
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> prappl93: the sounds from your soundcard will work as the modules for the sound card are allowed to load
[13:29] <prappl93> So, will these take place the next time I restart?
[13:29] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: it can be... currently i'm using EXT3-FS
[13:29] <invitingdopeman> ]\
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> prappl93: you can run: sudo rmmod pcspkr   and it will be removed in this boot
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> mazpe:  i found it easier to jus keep things simple. :)
[13:30] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: it can be rewarding...
[13:30] <prappl93> So, PCSPKR is the internal card then?
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> prappl93:  its the internal SPEAKER :) thats not the same as a interna sound card
[13:31] <prappl93> Well, thats what I meant... I gotta go in a few
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> prappl93:  motherboards normally have a built in little bitty speaker.
[13:31] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: until you urgently need a feature that its not available and simplicity doesnt seem like such a good idea anymore.. lol
[13:31] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: most of the time it just rewarding to get it work period
[13:31] <mazpe> :)
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> mazpe:  most of the time i see lvm mentioned in here.. people are trying to recover it..
[13:32] <lizzzy> So how do I link my home folder to my desktop?
[13:32] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: agreed
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> lizzzy:  theres a gnome option to use /home/USERNAME as your Desktop. but that would make a cluttered desktop.
[13:32] <biglinux> 5555
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> lizzzy:  or link /home/username/Desktop to /home/username   i guess.
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> recursive links.. :) stay out of Desktop/Deskop/Desktop/Desktop if ya do taht I guess.
[13:33] <slacker_nl> !keyserver
[13:33] <mazpe> Dr_Willis: well i'm going to be running a bunch of virtual machines from this server
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> lizzzy: do you want a shortcut to your docs sat on the desktop?
[13:34] <lizzzy> ActionParsnip: No, I just want a link to my home folder on my desktop.
[13:34] <SockPants> hi again
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> lizzzy: cd ~/Desktop; ln -s $HOME .
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> lizzzy: that will do it
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> lizzzy:  that wasent exactly what you asked.. or i missread it...
[13:34] <lizzzy> Oh kewl. Thanks...
[13:35] <lizzzy> sorry Dr_Willis. Will be clearer the next time.
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> Err.. I got a Home Icon on my desktop.....
[13:35] <SockPants> i have a user which i would like to add to the root group so that it has owner access to root files. how do i do htis?

[13:44] <yuwei> hello
[13:45] <aaron11> hi
[13:45] <dual> Has anyone here ever used Devil's Pie for Gnome. It doesn't seem to work anymore :(
[13:45] <xukun> where can I ask things about ekiga sip client which is included in ubuntu?
[13:46] <Pici> dual: It won't work if you're using compiz.
[13:46] <indus> xukun: this would be a good place to ask
[13:46] <NorwayGeek> sound does still not work
[13:46] <aaron11> does anyone know about the computer system 76
[13:46] <dual> Pici: Ah, that may be the reason, Thanks. Um.. why doesn't it work with compiz?
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> aaron11:  they sell computers.. :)
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> dual: compiz breaks lots
[13:47] <famille> salut!
[13:47] <kervel> octave
[13:47] <Pici> ActionParsnip: It doesnt break devilspie. devilspie was designed for metacity, compiz isn't metacity.

[13:47] <kisuke> actionparsip dual major understatment
[13:47] <NorwayGeek> ><
[13:47] <dual> ActionParsnip, heh, well. I'll go ahead and turn it off then
[13:47] <xukun> I,m using ekiga to connect to our company's sip server but I'm missing the "realm/domain" option in the client. Any idea where that is?
[13:47] <aaron11> !china
[13:47] <jameson> hello
[13:47] <xukun> indus, thnaks
[13:47] <xukun> thanks*
[13:48] <aaron11> !chinese | yuwei
[13:48] <indus> xukun: also, if question goes unanswered here, also try #ekiga
[13:48] <kisuke> xukun that would be the URL your company uses
[13:49] <xukun> kisuke, where is that option in ekiga?
[13:50] <melvster1> what's the easiest language for making simple guis in ubuntu?  ive been looking at java swing, python, gtk ... all seems like a bit of a maze, any tips for getting started?
[13:50] <NorwayGeek> i'd say GTK, sorry
[13:50] <aaron11> melvster1: why not try kturtle
[13:50] <aaron11> XD
[13:50] <erUSUL> melvster1: probably python + pygtk ??
[13:51] <melvster1> ah thanks, ill give that a try!
[13:51] <kisuke> xukun look under the advanced tab i don't use ekiga but that what it is refering to , networking terms stay the same regardless
[13:51] <xukun> kisuke, I will thanks
[13:52] <aaron11> SockPants: i need you to help me with the question the speed is same
[13:52] <NorwayGeek> ActionParsnip my sound does still not work :/
[13:53] <aaron11> NorwayGeek: try searching the web or launchpad for drivers
[13:53] <NorwayGeek> nothing is wrong with the drivers
[13:53] <NorwayGeek> my sound worked earlier today
[13:53] <NorwayGeek> it has worked for 2 weeks
[13:53] <NorwayGeek> it just suddenly was muted or w\e today :\
[13:53] <bazhang> aaron11, launchpad would not be a source of drivers
[13:53] <kisuke> norway geek are you useing flash at all (i.e. useing youtube, e.t.c.)?
[13:53] <NorwayGeek> yes
[13:53] <SockPants> i've added the user to the 'root' group but now it says it's in 'nogroup'.. how do i give a user access to system files owned by root?
[13:53] <xukun> #ekiga
[13:53] <aaron11> SockPants: helo :)
[13:53] <xukun> join #ekiga
[13:53] <paradisos7> #hellas
[13:54] <aaron11> saockthe speed is the same (please respond
[13:54] <kisuke> norwaygeek flash likes to grab the sound so nothing else gets access.
[13:54] <kisuke> xukun no luck?
[13:55] <aaron11> SockPants: speed is the same (please respond
[13:55] <NorwayGeek> :\ ill try to see if flash has sound
[13:55] <xukun> kisuke, no there is nothing like realm/domain anywhere
[13:55] <iceroot> SockPants: with sudo :)
[13:55] <SockPants> iceroot: how about permanent
[13:55] <iceroot> SockPants: su
[13:56] <SockPants> iceroot: i mean really permanent
[13:56] <NorwayGeek> no sound on youtube either
[13:56] <kisuke> xukun sorry i could not help you wanted /join #ekiga to swith channels
[13:56] <Qu4R0w> any1 can tell me how to install gloobus-preview and how to run it?
[13:56] <iceroot> SockPants: what about login is as root?
[13:56] <kisuke> norwaygeek are your speakers on?
[13:57] <aaron11> iceroot: what is SockPants 's problem?
[13:57] <NorwayGeek> they do not have an "on" switch, they're internal, its a hp pavilion notebook
[13:57] <aboanas93> i want to use ftp in ubuntu
[13:57] <xukun> kisuke, oh that I'n already thanks for your concern
[13:57] <brianm> what package do i need to install for nvidia kernel module?
[13:57] <bazhang> iceroot, not a good idea to log in as root
[13:57] <aboanas93> ftp in ubuntu
[13:57] <iceroot> aaron11: he wants to be able to access all files that belont to root
[13:57] <Qu4R0w> aboanas93: try gftp
[13:57] <kisuke> xukun NP :)
[13:57] <bazhang> aaron11, did you have a ubuntu issue
[13:57] <iceroot> bazhang: dont tell me, tell SockPants
[13:57] <SockPants> iceroot: i'm trying to use NFS to edit system files. i could use 'root' but then i couldn't distinguish between the nfs user and root, so i made a separate user called 'nfsuser' and want it to be in the root group so it can write anywhere root can
[13:57] <aboanas93> i try it
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> aboanas93:  you wan tto run a FTP server? or access a ftp server?
[13:57] <aboanas93> access
[13:57] <aaron11> bazhang: yes and windows issue
[13:57] <NorwayGeek> you can use ubuntu's connect to server function or filezilla
[13:58] <aaron11> SockPants:  login as root
[13:58] <bazhang> aaron11, then discuss in ##windows not here
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> aboanas93:  thers dozens of ftp clients.. and many file maagers can work as ftp clients also
[13:58] <aboanas93> whre
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Qu4R0w: download the bin file and mark it as executale with: chmod +x ./<file> then simply run it with ./<file>
[13:58] <aaron11> SockPants: use su and root passwd
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> !ftp
[13:58] <aboanas93> where
[13:58] <Pici> !noroot | aaron11 SockPants
[13:58] <bazhang> aaron11, that is not good advice. Please stop
[13:58] <NorwayGeek> aboanas93: sudo apt-get install filezilla <- filezilla is a very good one
[13:58] <Qu4R0w> ActionParsnip: i install via apt-get install
[13:58] <kisuke> brianm try system>resticted drivers that will tell you what can be used on you system
[13:58] <SockPants> Pici: i don't have a root password set
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Qu4R0w: if it is on the repo you can use that
[13:59] <aaron11> bazhang: i dont see what was bad advise?
[13:59] <Qu4R0w> ActionParsnip: how to use??
[13:59] <SockPants> !root

[14:00] <Qu4R0w> ActionParsnip: how start gloobus?
[14:00] <Hideme> Can I take my drive out and put it into another machine (all new hardware) and expect the O/S to work (Everything seems ok and picked up) ?
[14:00] <aaron11> bazhang: haha :) you can do sudo passwd root and type your passwd and enter the new passwd for root  after doing that type su and type the passwd you typped in.
[14:00] <kisuke> brianm didn't work how?
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> Hideme:  for the most part yes..  the video card may be  the main issue.. depending on the cards
[14:00] <bazhang> aaron11, dont recommend it here.
[14:00] <SockPants> i can't 'sudo' edit a file on my server from an nfs client, so i need the nfs user to have access to the files if i want to edit them, right?
[14:00] <bullgard4> lsmod lists ath_hal, ath_pci and ath_rate_sample. Why does it not list ath9k?
[14:01] <kisuke> !root > kisuke

[14:01] <aaron11> bazhang: ok sorry but it works fine in our system
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> Hideme:  it has for a very long time
[14:01] <aaron11> mine*

[14:27] <csgeek> error:   kernel source for kernel 2.6.18-15-server could not be found
[14:28] <kisuke> later people
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> csgeek: yes you'll need your kernel source
[14:28] <aboanas93> bey
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> csgeek: why do you need video drivers if you are running a server?
[14:28] <csgeek> okay.. which package do I need to grab for the kernel source?
[14:29] <csgeek> well, the desktop edition gave me an acid trip on the install, so I tried installing the server then install ubuntu-desktop
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> csgeek: did you verify the desktop ISO as well as verify the CD once first booted to?
[14:29] <yogg> i search for an hw raid monitor tool for ubuntu 8.04 64bit. has someone a good one?
[14:29] <shoss> Hello all. Some programs are kept being loaded up on login even after I unchecked them from the 'Startup Application' applet.. does anyone have any clue how I prevent these persistant programs from loading on login?
[14:30] <foey> yogg : I need one also for a server using a nvidia RAID.
[14:30] <joaopinto> shoss, which type of programas ? That is not expected unless you are talking about applets
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> shoss: uncheck the remeber my session tickbox in the advanced tab in the startup applications dialogue
[14:30] <shoss> forgot to add: using ubuntu 9.04 amd64 Gnome desktop
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> csgeek: did you verify the ISO as well as the burned CD when you tried desktop?
[14:31] <shoss> ActionParsnip: did that, didnt help
[14:31] <yogg> foey: i for an intel / lsi card    but i don't find anything for ubuntu
[14:31] <joaopinto> shoss, please name one of the applications
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> shoss: could also check in ~/.config/autostart
[14:31] <shoss> joaopinto: skype and pidgin
[14:33] <shoss> ActionParsnip: what do I need to check there?
[14:34] <cheslyn> hi everyone
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> shoss: there may be symlinks in there to apps (another way of autorunning stuff) if there is a link in there then you can delete it
[14:34] <shoss> ActionParsnip: both apps that load aren't listed there.
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> shoss: thats ok then
[14:34] <shoss> will ls -la show these syblinks?
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> shoss: file *     will show what they link to, the name is a dead giveaway though
[14:35] <Pici> shoss: 'symlinks' and yes. ls -l will show that.
[14:35] <cheslyn> prince_jammys: do you remember with what you helped me
[14:36] <shoss> in that case i can't see any syblinks there

[14:37] <vojacekj_> hi i have problem with my g-pen 450 under xubuntu 9.04 can someone help me?
[14:37] <iceroot> !details | vojacekj_
[14:38] <fatih> hey i am on ubuntu 9.04. and i use google chromium. when i watch youtube videos my cpu shows %70-80. i googled it but no helps. any suggests? thanks.
[14:39] <vojacekj_> ok i tried to make it with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TabletSetup
[14:39] <cheslyn> guys can you reset any passwd
[14:40] <shoss> may if i installed these apps as root so (or configured the startup as root as some point) is it possible these apps keep loading because of that? and if so how do I configure that? as in which/where is the file needed to configure?
[14:40] <Darck1> hi all - I put an "undelete" function in on my system but it's not working - I created a directory in /tmp to store my files that will be undeleted but /tmp gets cleaned out - I know I could just create a different directory for the files but I want to know how I can find out where /tmp gets cleaned out
[14:40] <puffinman> Hi guys
[14:40] <grawity> Darck1: Don't use /tmp for undelete, then.
[14:40] <erUSUL> cheslyn: yes you can reset any login password if you have access to the machine
[14:40] <puffinman> can anybody tell me what time the Karmic beta is due out?
[14:40] <Jill> hi all.. ubuntu 8.04 support until 2011 or 2013?
[14:40] <grawity> Darck1: (And look at /etc/init.d/)
[14:40] <erUSUL> puffinman: ask in #ubuntu+1
[14:40] <puffinman> sure
[14:40] <puffinman> thanks
[14:40] <vojacekj_> but wehn i calibrate it and change the files and restart xubuntu the tablet is not workink
[14:41] <Darck1> yeah thanks grawit - I already said that. I did a grep in /etc/init.d for tmp but didn't find anything
[14:41] <vojacekj_> the mouse isnot moving
[14:41] <cheslyn> erusul: ok but is it the only passwd that can be reset
[14:41] <erUSUL> Darck1: tmp is called that TeMPorary becouse it is cleaned up in every reboot
[14:41] <Qu4R0w> i type "gloobus-preview" but got this error=NO FILE IN THE CLIPBOARD..how to make it work?
[14:41] <CybeRebel> hello, my dvd/cd drive has stoped mounting, anyone know if this is a ubuntu problem?
[14:41] <erUSUL> cheslyn: what password are you talking about ?
[14:42] <llutz> Darck1: /etc/default/rcS
[14:42] <Darck1> I guess nobody understood my question. I KNOW that I can just use a different directory - and I am going to
[14:42] <grawity> Darck1: Hm. grep -R tmp /etc/rc* then?
[14:42] <Darck1> but I am trying to learn and I want to know WHY it's getting cleaned out and HOW it's getting cleaned out - ie. What process is doing it
[14:43] <lizzzy> So, I installed a couple of themes and screwed up the layout of ubuntu. How can I revert back to my original theme?
[14:43] <erUSUL> Darck1: yes we understood /tmp is cleaned up on every reboot becouse it was designed that way. llutz already told you waht process (init) is doing it
[14:43] <cheslyn> erusul:a administrator passwd
[14:43] <Darck1> thank you grawity
[14:43] <eni23> hello. i got a problem with my intern soundcard. nothing sounds anymore but my extern (hdsp hammerfall) is still working. firefox and vmware does play sound with rme hammerfall all the other programms are muted (i choosed the rme on ubuntu-sound-config). wtf is this??? here is my /dev/sndstat: http://pastebin.com/m1eb2d9fc
[14:43] <grawity> cheslyn: Boot to recovery mode, use 'passwd your-username-here'
[14:43] <sheepsy> The binary driver howto (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia) speaks of nvidia-glx-legacy, nvidia-glx-new available in restricted. I have restricted enabled in my software sources, but aptitude search only comes up with nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-* and nvidia-glx-*-dev
[14:43] <erUSUL> cheslyn: you want to change it ? go to System>Admin>Users and groups
[14:44] <Darck1> I was too busy typing to see llutz's comment
[14:44] <eni23> how can i fix this crap?
[14:44] <Darck1> thank you llutz
[14:44] <llutz> Darck1: /etc/init.d/mountall-bootclean.sh
[14:44] <cheslyn> erusul: in command
[14:44] <JonathanD> 6
[14:45] <mikinanuq> eni23: checked alsamixer?
[14:45] <erUSUL> cheslyn: man passwd. « passwd username »
[14:45] <cheslyn> grawity: thanks but not the user passwd
[14:45] <grawity> cheslyn: What then? The 'sudo' password?
[14:45] <foey> Are there any guides to setting up SAMBA from the terminal, as in users, share folders e.t.c.
[14:46] <lizzzy> So, I installed a couple of themes and screwed up the layout of ubuntu. How can I revert back to my original theme?
[14:46] <luizfelipe> #fedora
[14:46] <eni23> mikinanuq: jeah, it just shows some config-options for the hdsp-soundcard
[14:46] <cheslyn> grawity: yes perhaps
[14:46] <grawity> cheslyn: But it is the same user password.
[14:47] <eni23> i control the soundcard over a programm named "hdspmixer" (alsa-stuff)
[14:47] <gamla_kossan> hi people
[14:47] <gamla_kossan> how come the new release of ubuntu will ditch pidgin in favor of empathy?
[14:47] <gamla_kossan> anyone have a clue?
[14:47] <cheslyn> grawity: ok but is that the passwd you use to login no
[14:47] <mikinanuq> lizzzy: you can recreate your profile by renaming .gnome in your home directory... if it doesn't look right just name it back.
[14:47] <grawity> cheslyn: Yes, the same.
[14:48] <eni23> mikinanuq: ok i guess normally the "hda intel" is number 0 and hdsp nummer 2. but right now it's switched
[14:48] <eni23> how can i change?
[14:48] <Qu4R0w> frog: try iptraf
[14:48] <mikinanuq> lizzzy: all of your settings are in your home dir. just mess around with them
[14:49] <cheslyn> grawity:ok but i don't want 2 reset that passwd.ok what other passwd do you get
[14:50] <mikinanuq> eni23: I think you may be able to load the modules manually for your devices and specify on boot what you want
[14:50] <Darck1> there - I learned something. Thanks. I found that /tmp is cleaned out by bootclean.sh and I can add an exception for my undelete files directory
[14:50] <alabd> good day everyone ,after installing nvidia-glx-180 packagehow to use nvidia driver ?
[14:50] <lizzzy> mikinanuq: Will do that. Thanks.
[14:50] <grawity> Darck1: And like I said, it is better to use a separate directory, instead of mucking with init scripts.
[14:50] <erUSUL> gamla_kossan: ask in #ubuntu+1
[14:50] <grawity> cheslyn: There usually are only two passwords: the user password (used for administration and such), and root password (in Ubuntu, there is no password by default)
[14:50] <gamla_kossan> erUSUL: =)
[14:51] <cheslyn> grawity: so how do you change the root passwd
[14:52] <grawity> cheslyn: Do you REALLY need to do it?
[14:52] <frogzoo> cheslyn: there is NO need for root access
[14:52] <mikinanuq> eni23: do an lsmod and ceck out those devices, copy the values for your hda intel and hdsp.
[14:52] <grawity> cheslyn: Because 'sudo' (or 'sudo -s') is enough for all commands.
[14:52] <Darck1> grawity: Absolutely correct. And I will. I just had to learn how it did it and how I could get around it if I needed to. But I will be using a different directory
[14:53] <mikinanuq> eni23: then   man modprobe   look at how to unload those modules and load them back in with the correct values.
[14:53] <cheslyn> grawity: i know but i really want 2 know if you can tell me please
[14:53] <grawity> cheslyn: Run 'passwd root' as root.
[14:53] <mikinanuq> eni23:  use modprobe to load the modules and if everything works fine use modules.conf to set  it permanently
[14:54] <mikinanuq> eni23: ah it's  /etc/modules  where you load your module config
[14:55] <panopticon> unless i miss my guess, firefox is using the totem-gstreamer plugin for certain media plugins?
[14:56] <cheslyn> grawity: thanks so what do you mean as root
[14:58] <Carpe|Diem> how can I see on what device i am working? I used fdisk /dev/sda but how can i see on what device i am?
[14:58] <Carpe|Diem> fstab?
[14:59] <nomoa> Carpe|Diem: What do you mean by "i am working"?
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> yes
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> you see
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> i have a windows installation and a ubuntu installation
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> also, i have a windows 7 installation
[14:59] <mikinanuq> cheslyn: you can  sudo passwd root  and change the root password. or do  sudo su -  and then when your in your command as root run passwd
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> but this ubuntu does not use c: or d:
[14:59] <Carpe|Diem> so i need to know what partition to format, since i will switch to a different linux distro
[15:00] <nomoa> Carpe|Diem: run "mount" or "df" to see what partitions are in use by your system
[15:00] <mikinanuq> hmm gotta do better engrish
[15:00] <Carpe|Diem> ok df worked fine
[15:00] <Carpe|Diem> its /dev/sda1 ;)
[15:00] <Carpe|Diem> ty :D
[15:01] <cheslyn> mikinanuq: thanks
[15:01] <grawity> mikinanuq: It's better to use 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i', instead of 'sudo su'.
[15:02] <mikinanuq> not sure what the -s or -i is for.
[15:02] <mikinanuq> never use them
[15:03] <llutz> mikinanuq: man sudo tells you the difference
[15:03] <Halitech> mikinanuq, man sudo will tell you
[15:04] <kyja> Ranger TUX says, "Only you can prevent iceberg fires"
[15:05] <luizfelipe> help
[15:05] <kyja> I don't know if I can but shoot
[15:05] <mikinanuq> llutz Halitech .. I'm a humble man so I'll say Thank you I didn't know that ;) ...
[15:06] <cetanhota> whats a good light weight mail client?
[15:06] <llutz> cetanhota: mutt
[15:07] <genii> pine/alpine also isn't horrible
[15:07] <eni23> mikinanuq: snd_hda_intel is 3 and snd_hdsp is 2. now i have to: modprobe -r snd_hda_intel && modprobe -r snd_hdsp && modprobe snd_hda_intel && modprobe snd_hdsp ? is this correct?
[15:10] <mikinanuq> eni23: I say it can't hurt so give it a shot
[15:10] <kyja> were we just flooded by a bot
[15:11] <mikinanuq> eni23: also, does it assign the device ID or number in the order it's loaded or do you have to specify the number you want to give it?
[15:11] <mikinanuq> eni23: you may need to experiment a bit for that one
[15:11] <Boohbah> mikinanuq: i believe the UUID comes from the hardware itself
[15:12] <Petaris> Hi, is there an IRC channel for the netbook remix?
[15:12] <eni23> mikinanuq: FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use. i tried --force
[15:12] <Boohbah> Petaris: ask here if it's a current release
[15:13] <andyL> hello
[15:13] <Petaris> Boohbah: Ok, I just need to find out how to reset a lost password on it
[15:13] <Boohbah> Petaris: a lost root passwd?
[15:13] <Petaris> pressing ESC during boot doesn't give me a single user option
[15:14] <Petaris> Boohbah: yeah
[15:14] <ltcabral> what can i use to open 4 terminals at once, like 2x2
[15:14] <andyL> is there a way to change the home directory of a ftp server for a local user ?
[15:14] <ltcabral> and fit them to screen
[15:14] <foey> how change I share a folder via the terminal? (samba is installed)
[15:14] <edbian> How can I set up NIS so that sudo works throughout my network?  Is there a way to also push out my /etc/sudoers from my server to my clients?
[15:14] <Boohbah> Petaris: if you can get to a grub menu you want to choose "Recovery mode"
[15:15] <hackerkid1031> Hey Anyone Here Really good with Ubuntu?
[15:15] <Boohbah> !ask
[15:15] <Petaris> Boohbah: How do you get to the grub menu though?  Pressing ESC doesn't bing it up, neither does tab
[15:15] <thiebaude> hackerkid1031, what is your question?
[15:15] <mikinanuq> eni23: brb :( at work
[15:16] <bluebaron> how do i restart my jvm?
[15:16] <eni23> someone got a good howto about  modprobe and kernel-modules (best in german). i dont't really get it..
[15:16] <edbian> hackerkid1031: 'm pretty good.
[15:16] <hackerkid1031> i seem to be stuck in a upgrade loop, it says a previous upgrade did not complete, so it offers to do a partial upgrade whitch dosent complete!?!?
[15:16] <edbian> hackerkid1031: Be more specific.  Where / why is it getting stuck?

[15:16] <Boohbah> Petaris: oh, how?
[15:16] <Petaris> must have been a timing issue
[15:16] <cpi> hello.. one question: has anybody of you got an iscsi disk running with the current karmic alpha 6 desktop install cd? the changelog says its supported since alpha4 but i can't find any options anywhere...
[15:17] <Petaris> pressing too late or something
[15:17] <hackerkid1031> i dont know why thats why im asking lol
[15:17] <thiebaude> hackerkid1031, do a sudo dpkg --configure -a  in a terminal
[15:17] <Pici> cpi : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[15:17] <ltcabral> hackerkid1031: if it doesnt complete its not a loop right :P
[15:17] <cpi> Pici: ok thanks
[15:17] <Boohbah> hackerkid1031: are you trying to upgrade to karmic? or is this jaunty?
[15:17] <Trizicus> I'm on 9.10 Alpha 6 and sometimes xmms2d freezes how can I report this bug with the errors?
[15:17] <Pici> Trizicus : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[15:17] <Boohbah> Trizicus: /join #ubuntu+1
[15:17] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, have you tried running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade in the terminal?
[15:17] <hackerkid1031> yeah
[15:17] <hackerkid1031> 1 sec
[15:18] <Madsy> I wonder what's up with the CPU governor used by Ubuntu. "ondemand" never utilizes the full CPU performance, and setting the governor strategy to "performance" make my CPU temperature jump to 80C!
[15:18] <Madsy> This does *not* happen in Debian.
[15:18] <Petaris> Boohbah: Thanks for your help
[15:18] <Petaris> :)
[15:18] <hackerkid1031> i installed off af a disk the first time i tried installing it sayd the disk was corrupt, but the second time it worked? i ordered the disk from ubuntu.com
[15:18] <ltcabral> what can i use to open 4 terminals at once, like 2x2
[15:18] <Trizicus> thanks
[15:19] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, possible bad or dirty laser in the drive?
[15:19] <Madsy> /proc/cpuinfo on Debian reports the correct speed, and does not make my laptop melt.
[15:19] <hackerkid1031> the disk was ver . 7.10
[15:19] <Boohbah> ltcabral: umm, just start another instance of your terminal emulator
[15:19] <thiebaude> hackerkid1031, did you clean the disc?
[15:19] <hackerkid1031> im currently at ver 9.04
[15:19] <hackerkid1031> yeah
[15:19] <hackerkid1031> i did
[15:19] <hattonr> can anyone tell me how to configure terminal server client to not try to connect every 30 seconds?
[15:19] <thiebaude> ok
[15:19] <hackerkid1031> at About: it says 9.04 Jaunty
[15:19] <ltcabral> Boohbah: nvm... terminator package is what i needed
[15:20] <SingAlong> my 4gb pendrive has a 1gb limit in ubuntu. how do i set it right?
[15:20] <hackerkid1031> BTW QUICK NOTE im currently on my laptop thi problem i on my desktop (witch is on now)
[15:20] <jpbaa1> I need help setting up separate x screens in ubuntu
[15:21] <Madsy> SingAlong: You could try formatting the pen. Choose a FAT32 filesystem if you need compatibility with Windows
[15:21] <eni23> SingAlong: mabye you buy a scam-pendrive?
[15:21] <SingAlong> Madsy: oh. how do i format the pendrive by using commands?
[15:21] <SingAlong> eni23: no lol. its got 4gb space in windows.
[15:21] <eni23> SingAlong: shure shure..
[15:21] <SingAlong> eni23: i have a dualboot system.
[15:21] <csgeek> sorry.. round about way.. but had to install desktop edition using a single monitor plugged in, then it worked just fine.
[15:21] <eni23> but post sudo fdisk -l
[15:21] <dual> Is it possible to, on my desktop, list up all icons and files that are there, instead of floating icons all over?
[15:21] <hackerkid1031> is there any commands in terminal that check the packages for corruption and fix them if they are corrupted?
[15:22] <duk> pozzzz
[15:22] <hackerkid1031> << read last!
[15:22] <thiebaude> !dpkg
[15:22] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, sudo apt-get install -f
[15:22] <eni23> SingAlong: the stick say "i have 4gb" but it only have one
[15:22] <SingAlong> eni23: yes. one sec
[15:22] <hackerkid1031> kk 1 sec
[15:22] <eni23> i got screwed one time
[15:22] <chucky> which is the best browser for xubuntu..?on an ibm thinkpad?
[15:22] <naxa> hi!
[15:23] <SingAlong> eni23: No. mine is legit. it works fine in windows.
[15:23] <Halitech> SingAlong, what does sudo fdisk -l say
[15:23] <naxa> how can i install xjadeo on ubuntu 9.04?
[15:23] <erUSUL> !best | chucky
[15:23] <hackerkid1031> o upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 upgraded (with apt-get install -f)
[15:23] <erUSUL> chucky: lightweight browsers... epiphany; midori; dillo...
[15:24] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, what does lsb_release -a say?
[15:24] <chucky> erUSUL, less on ram 256mb n an r40 so d lighter d better
[15:24] <eni23> SingAlong: works fine in win can mean a lot ;)
[15:24] <SingAlong> Halitech: got the output. here's the pastie - http://pastie.org/636688
[15:24] <SingAlong> eni23: its got 4gb is win. :)
[15:24] <SingAlong> eni23: thats what I meant by working fine :)
[15:25] <eni23> the fdsik looks weird
[15:25] <SingAlong> eni23: I've been using it for a month. transfering movies etc :)
[15:25] <alabd> after installing/media/disk/all/txt/bookmarks/25-9-2009a.html
[15:25] <SingAlong> eni23: its not the usual fdisk. Halitech said fdisk -l
[15:25] <eni23> correct. i told you this too
[15:26] <eni23> is there any data you need on the stick?
[15:26] <SingAlong> eni23: nothing :) I figured out this limit only now when I was trying to transfer a movie to it.
[15:26] <hackerkid1031> No LSB Modules Are Available , Distribution : Ubuntu  ... Descrip: Ubuntu 9.04 ...Codename : Jaunty :
[15:26] <hackerkid1031> thats lsb_release -a
[15:26] <SingAlong> eni23: i can format it if needed. no important data I'm glad
[15:27] <Halitech> SingAlong, looks like it has 4 partitions but they are screwy in my mind ... try opening gparted and see what the drive looks like there
[15:27] <alabd> any opinion ?
[15:27] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, ok, so its saying you have 9.04, what are you trying to upgrade to? 9.10?
[15:28] <mobal> hello
[15:28] <eni23> ok then format it when it works, because the partition-table looks really strange. mabye it's a mbr-virus?
[15:28] <eni23> it really looks like "Stoned Monkey MBR"
[15:28] <hackerkid1031> i dont really care but the upgrade manager keeps popping up every 5 mins
[15:28] <thiebaude> eni23, haha
[15:29] <hackerkid1031> i dont need to upgrade i dont think...
[15:29] <eni23> thiebaude: don't belive me? then google it!
[15:29] <eni23> windows is a weird thing!
[15:29] <SingAlong> Halitech: how do i figure out the partition on which my pendrive is mounted as?
[15:29] <thiebaude> eni23, hey, i thought that was funny
[15:29] <Halitech> SingAlong, its sdb
[15:29] <Dr_Willis> SingAlong:  check 'sudo fdisk -l' is one way
[15:29] <llutz> SingAlong: it is formatted in so called "superfloppy" format, which doesn't contain any partitions. it uses the raw device
[15:29] <Dr_Willis> SingAlong:  or the 'mount ' command
[15:30] <metacube> Sabm
[15:30] <SingAlong> eni23: i figured out why my fdisk output looks bad. i'm on a netbook running ubuntu :)
[15:30] <hackerkid1031> brb
[15:30]  * hackerkid1031 is away: Brb Hacking Your Computer
[15:30] <llutz> SingAlong: that's why the partitions look weired
[15:31] <eni23> llutz: really? thanks for the info
[15:31] <SingAlong> llutz: the acer guys gave one drive with 160gb with win installed. i have win but installed ubuntu by partitioning the drive :)
[15:31] <chucky> erUSUL, how is opera on Xfce4 xubuntu distro...?
[15:31] <ubuntu> hi guys, i have installed xubuntu on a pendrive, to help me recover files from a broken windows installation... How do i map my windows partition for use in xubuntu?
[15:31] <llutz> SingAlong: i talked about /dev/sdb
[15:32] <Halitech> chucky, runs nicely for me
[15:32] <SingAlong> llutz: oh
[15:32] <chucky> Halitech, but mine is a r40 thinkpad ..low on ram
[15:32] <eni23> ubuntu: sudo fdisk -l (in pastebin!!)
[15:32] <SingAlong> llutz: k. so how do i format this drive?
[15:32] <njk> hey guys, could you test this http://gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/gbitly-applet?content=112903 under ubuntu?
[15:32] <Zzeiss> ubuntu: ubottu! mount
[15:32] <SingAlong> llutz: *pendrive
[15:32] <chucky> Halitech, firefox seems slow
[15:32] <SingAlong> !format
[15:32] <llutz> SingAlong: sudo mkfs.cfat -F32 /dev/sdb
[15:32] <eni23> SingAlong: for beginners, gparted is fine
[15:32] <llutz> SingAlong: sudo mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/sdb
[15:32] <SingAlong> llutz: isnt that vfat?
[15:33] <thiebaude> njk, it comes up
[15:33] <Zzeiss> ubuntu: you need to use the "mount" command to mount preexisting partitions- including the "vfat" format partitions from your Windows installation.
[15:33] <SingAlong> eni23: i like to do it the command way :)
[15:33]  * hackerkid1031 is back (gone 00:02:37)
[15:33] <hackerkid1031> ok im back
[15:33] <Halitech> chucky, opera seems faster then ff on my machine but I find ff works better ... have you looked at swiftfox instead of ff?
[15:33] <hackerkid1031> had to go to the Bathroom
[15:33] <njk> thiebaude: what comes up?
[15:33] <hackerkid1031> ok
[15:33] <eni23> SingAlong: then do it like ilutz told you
[15:33] <hackerkid1031> now back to the desktop
[15:33] <thiebaude> njk, that web page
[15:34] <njk> thiebaude: lol not the webpage, the software I mean
[15:34] <thiebaude> ok
[15:34] <hackerkid1031> it just popped up AGAIN !
[15:34] <SingAlong> llutz: is /dev/sdb my pendrive?
[15:34] <llutz> SingAlong: some linux automount-features always try to mount partitions and not the raw-device. so automounting the pen-drive might fail
[15:34] <llutz> SingAlong: according to your paste, yes (4GB)
[15:34] <Halitech> hackerkid1031, there should be an option to not check for updates
[15:35] <chucky> Halitech, what do u suggest  i've used neither..lemme know how to install as well...thanx
[15:35] <ubuntu> i have mountet the drive, and i can see it's content in the terminal.. but i can't get to it thru the GUI
[15:35] <eni23> ubuntu: when you see the content type 'pwd'
[15:35] <dtownhero> morning - got my wife a new dell studio 17 yesterday and wiped windows from it. Her sound is VERY low after installing Ubuntu... any ideas?
[15:35] <nightrid3r> !apt
[15:35] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  try 'nautilus /path/where/its/mounted'
[15:35] <ubuntu> eni23, drop dead
[15:36] <aziz_> a.aziz
[15:36] <eni23> Dr_Willis: xubuntu have no nautilus
[15:36] <SingAlong> llutz: http://pastie.org/636712
[15:36] <Halitech> chucky, swiftfox might be in the repo, not sure, for opera http://www.opera.com/browser/download/
[15:36] <Dr_Willis> eni23:  then use whatever file manager ya got.
[15:36] <Halitech> eni23, Dr_Willis xfce uses thunar
[15:37] <Dr_Willis> I tend to remove thunar as soon as i see its installed.. :)
[15:37] <chucky> Halitech, how is epiphany?..ps  what r d issues with opera?
[15:37] <eni23> ubuntu: what you mean with drop dead?
[15:37] <naxa> bye
[15:37] <thiebaude> !pcmanfm
[15:37] <Boohbah> chucky: opera is closed-source
[15:37] <hackerkid1031> IT SAYS: AND I QUOTE: Not All Updates can be Installed Run a Partial Upgrade, To install as many updates as possable This can be caused by : a previous upgrade whitch didnt complete,  Problems with some of the instaled software, normal changes of a pre-released version of ubuntu, or unofficial software packages not provided by ubuntu
[15:37] <llutz> SingAlong: do as suggested or repartition the pendrive
[15:37] <mikinanuq> eni23: back, what did I miss?
[15:37] <SingAlong> llutz: i did as suggested. the same command you gave me
[15:37] <eni23> mikinanuq: not a lot. i can't unload snd_hda_intel
[15:38] <llutz> SingAlong: it suggests "-I to override"
[15:38] <lpuczyn> join #oknopw
[15:38] <lpuczyn> haha
[15:38] <lpuczyn> :P
[15:38] <FloodBot3> lpuczyn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:38] <SingAlong> llutz: oh that one.
[15:38] <hackerkid1031> is there any way to boot off of the live cd then intall directly over the internet? (NOT off the cd?)
[15:38] <thiebaude> hackerkid1031, its not good to do a partial upgrade
[15:38] <Boohbah> eni23: sudo rmmod -f snd_hda_intel
[15:38] <SingAlong> llutz: so doing that will not automount my drive?
[15:38] <hackerkid1031> ok...
[15:38] <hackerkid1031> << see previous
[15:38] <llutz> SingAlong: maybe.... i would repartition it
[15:38] <dtownhero> morning - got my wife a new dell studio 17 yesterday and wiped windows from it. Her sound is VERY low after installing Ubuntu... any ideas?
[15:38] <eni23> Boohbah: mikinanuq: nothing change with the --force switch
[15:39] <SingAlong> llutz: thats okie. I'll try it. Anyway it can be fixed later with gparted if necessary
[15:39] <SingAlong> llutz: formatted. let me test
[15:39] <shane2peru> ok, does anyone know how to get vhook enabled in ffmpeg?  I don't have a watermark.so ?
[15:39] <llutz> SingAlong: as i said, linux and superfloppy aren't real friends (my opinion)
[15:39] <mikinanuq> eni23: make sure nothing is using it?
[15:39] <Boohbah> eni23: why do you need to unload the module? is some program using your sound device? (likely)
[15:39] <Halitech> chucky, I've never used epiphany ... opera just doesn't seem to load a few sites properly for me
[15:39] <SingAlong> llutz: works fine. it automounts
[15:39] <llutz> SingAlong: fine
[15:39] <hackerkid1031> is there any way to boot off of the live cd then intall directly over the internet? (NOT off the cd?)
[15:39] <my_haz> is there a way to have `xset dpms force off` run as the screensaver?
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> shane2peru:  its possible the ffmpeg you got - does not have all the features enabled..  the one on medibuntu repos I think had a few more features enabled.. YOu might have to resort to PPA repos for newer/enhanced versions.. or use the source
[15:40] <my_haz> hackerkid1031: more or less yes
[15:40] <mikinanuq> eni23: you may need to stop alsa or some other daemon or any other programs
[15:40] <SingAlong> llutz: ya. i also got my 4gb space now.
[15:40] <hackerkid1031> ? please explain
[15:40] <SingAlong> eni23: llutz: thanks!
[15:40] <my_haz> hackerkid1031: well you want to install the same distro i take it?
[15:40] <chucky> Halitech, such as?...what about dillo/
[15:40] <Madsy> SingAlong: Formatting worked?
[15:40] <shane2peru> Dr_Willis: I installed from source, following the FakeOutdoorsmans guide on the forums, and tried to re-configure it, but not sure what to do.
[15:40] <SingAlong> Madsy: ya.
[15:40] <Madsy> Great :-)
[15:41] <Halitech> chucky, used dillo in puppy and it seemed nice
[15:41] <Dr_Willis> shane2peru:  be sure you are running the one you compiled. not the one installed bya the package manager also.
[15:41] <chucky> Halitech, whats puppy?
[15:41] <hackerkid1031> i dont care what distro as long as it works properly, and i can use the desktop with my 2 2
[15:41] <hackerkid1031> Tb hdds
[15:41] <shane2peru> Dr_Willis: right, I removed the original ffmpeg package
[15:41] <SingAlong> chucky: puppylinux
[15:41] <Boohbah> shane2peru: what program are you using with ffmpeg that needs that lib?
[15:41] <Halitech> chucky, puppy linux, its a lightweight distro
[15:41] <chucky> ok,.,
[15:41] <SingAlong> chucky: its based on ubuntu. around 190mb
[15:41] <shane2peru> Boohbah: I want to watermark videos
[15:42] <chucky> SingAlong, ok,,,..
[15:42] <chucky> SingAlong, ligter than xubuntu?
[15:42] <SingAlong> chucky: well thats only if you have a really old system. the required ram for that is just around 64mb
[15:42] <Halitech> SingAlong, when did they change to being ubuntu based?
[15:42] <eni23> mikinanuq: i stopped pulseaudio and alsa-utils
[15:42] <SingAlong> chucky: ya. lighter :) hey wait. what config is yours? you need a lighter distro for a netbook?
[15:42] <eni23> but nothing changed
[15:43] <chucky> SingAlong, ibm thinpad r40 256 ram im on xubuntu
[15:43] <SingAlong> Halitech: well IDK. when i read their page around 2yrs back it said so i guess.
[15:43] <chucky> Halitech, downloadin opera..
[15:43] <hackerkid1031> Also really quick i am usin xirc can i disable the messages about people leaving and joining?
[15:43] <Dr_Willis> The next incarnation of puppy is to 'use' the ubuntu repos.. its not ubuntu based from what i read. :)  if that makes sence.
[15:43] <SingAlong> Halitech: no i guess they arent based on ubuntu. but sure on debian. its been days since i visited their page :)
[15:43] <Boohbah> shane2peru: maybe one of these will work: https://launchpad.net/~siretart/+ppa-packages
[15:43] <SingAlong> chucky: i've got exactly what you'll need :)
[15:43] <chucky> SingAlong, debian based
[15:43]  * Dr_Willis points to #puppylinux
[15:44] <SingAlong> chucky: wait a sec. listen.
[15:44] <chucky> SingAlong, what..?
[15:44] <Halitech> SingAlong, I know dsl is based on debian but I thought (could be wrong) that puppy is its own distro
[15:44] <gnubie> http://www.puppylinux.com/about.htm  says it is built from scratch
[15:44] <mikinanuq> eni23: hmm, hold a sec
[15:44] <my_haz> How does the screensaver know that nothing has happened in X amount of time (20 minutes), how can get something else to happen other than the screensaver go off it nothing happens in Y amount of time
[15:44] <yuhu> hola
[15:44] <SingAlong> chucky: install ubuntu. the latest version and change your desktop manager to lxde. lxde is lighter than xfce.
[15:44] <shane2peru> Boohbah: ok, I will give check out one of those.  If I knew what configuration option to use with ffmpeg, I could probably just re-configure it.
[15:45] <yuhu> alguien k me ayude para instalar una pinnacle
[15:45] <thiebaude> !es | yuhu
[15:45] <duffydack> shane2peru, what lib are you talking about.
[15:45] <thiebaude> !pinnacle
[15:45] <ra21vi> can i restrict users to browse/upload/download files thru SSH/SFTP to a single directory
[15:45] <shane2peru> duffydack: watermark.so
[15:46] <ra21vi> I want to have an alternative to FTP, so thinking about the SFTP
[15:46] <shane2peru> duffydack: <- that is hard to type even the first two letters correctly I want to type da(tab). :)
[15:46] <cognitiaclaeves> The last time I ran open office, it crashed my entire desktop.  I'd like to run it again, but this time, from the console, and capture any errors that it generates into a text file.  can I do that with: ooffice -writer %F > oofice_output.txt 2>&1 ?
[15:46] <SingAlong> chucky: i use lxde on my netbook and use eclipse on it. and it works just fine. (eclipse is a heavy dev tool)
[15:46] <Trizicus> What can I use to allow my PS3 recognize ubuntu as a media server; any suggestions?
[15:46] <crescendo> Is there a way to run the textual installer from the LiveCD?
[15:46] <Halitech> chucky, if you want to get a better responsive system, do the minimal install and install lxde http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/minimal
[15:46] <mikinanuq> eni23: trying to see if there's a way to see what's holding up the module
[15:46] <chucky> SingAlong, can i upgrade the desktop manager on xubuntu?
[15:46] <cognitiaclaeves> crescendo: You might need an alt disc.
[15:46] <shane2peru> duffydack: it is for vhook with ffmpeg to watermark videos
[15:47] <SingAlong> chucky: ya just search for lxde on the synaptic pkg mgr. you'll find it
[15:47] <SingAlong> chucky: but one thing.
[15:47] <SingAlong> chucky: its still under dev but its nice.
[15:47] <crescendo> cognitiaclaeves: that's what I was fearing. :[
[15:47] <crescendo> cognitiaclaeves: I have it downloaded and burned, but I need to be able to use apps on this same box while I run an install on another disk
[15:47] <SingAlong> chucky: b/w dont install this pkg called lxnm. which is the lx network mgr. its broken and the normal network mgr works fine there.
[15:47] <newabz> hi
[15:48] <newabz> i need some help on ubuntu.. can anyone help me please..
[15:48] <Halitech> !help | newabz
[15:48] <joaopinto> !anyone | newabz
[15:48] <SingAlong> chucky: and when you use wifi you might have to type in "nm-applet" in commandline to start the network manager applet to detect your wifi connections.
[15:48] <newabz> !help
[15:48] <newabz> !anyone
[15:48] <newabz> ok i'll ask
