[06:31] <rww> psypher246: in short, use http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/PACKAGENAME/+filebug?no-redirect , replacing PACKAGENAME with the relevant source package.
[06:31] <psypher246> why so complicated??
[06:31] <psypher246> why can't there just a be a button oin the first page, report a bug?
[06:32] <psypher246> simple
[06:32] <Jrsquee> did someone ping me?
[06:32] <slaeya> can anyone walk me through troubleshooting a wireless problem.
[06:32] <rww> psypher246: There used to be. It was a pain because people kept using it, filing against the wrong package, and not using ubuntu-bug.
[06:32] <WaltherFI> slaeya: hi there
[06:32] <WaltherFI> slaeya: realtek i guess?
[06:32] <psypher246> rww silly
[06:32] <slaeya> WaltherFI: you got it.
[06:32] <red2kic> I like my files organized.
[06:32] <BestKeptSecret> what's the /proc/kcore file?
[06:33] <WaltherFI> slaeya: RTL8192E?
[06:33] <psypher246> evebn when i go TO the firefox page the report a bug button is greyed out
[06:33] <slaeya> WaltherFI: whats the command to output the model pls.
[06:33] <WaltherFI> slaeya: lspci |grep Realtek
[06:34] <psypher246> rww that linik u gave me does not work
[06:34] <BestKeptSecret> what's the /proc/kcore file?
[06:34] <BestKeptSecret> anyone know?
[06:34] <Hick0rd> Hello, video's within youtube has no sound on the new ubuntu 11.04 - Any ideas?
[06:34] <slaeya> WaltherFI: RTL8101E/RTL8102E
[06:34] <JAQK-Joker> Is er om het even wie?
[06:34] <WaltherFI> slaeya: hmm... Not sure if i've seen that one on the forums
[06:35] <WaltherFI> slaeya: anyway, go to ubuntuforums and search with that
[06:35] <bazhang> JAQK-Joker, english only here
[06:35] <rww> psypher246: works fine for me. Make sure you're replacing PACKAGENAME with a source package name.
[06:35] <WaltherFI> slaeya: for most of the Realteks'
[06:35] <bazhang> Hick0rd, support for natty in #ubuntu+1
[06:35] <adityag> how do i remove all files of a particular extension from all subfolders ?
[06:35] <rww> BestKeptSecret: http://www.unixguide.net/linux/faq/04.16.shtml
[06:35] <slaeya> WaltherFI: its an intriguing problem, as I can connect to some networks and not others
[06:35] <WaltherFI> slaeya: people have emailed Realtek and got the native drivers
[06:35] <Hick0rd> bazhang, thank you.
[06:35] <BestKeptSecret> rww, i just went to that page
[06:35] <BestKeptSecret> thanks
[06:35] <WaltherFI> slaeya: so search the forums and find the .sh or .run or something
[06:36] <psypher246> rww: sorry but this is all very silly
[06:36] <psypher246> fronty page: report a bug, next question which app do u want to report.. deon simple
[06:36] <bazhang> psypher246, he gave you a solution; no need for the meta-commentary
[06:36] <slaeya> WaltherFI: thanks ... will do
[06:36] <rww> adityag: find . -name \*.PUTEXTENSIONHERE -delete
[06:36] <WaltherFI> slaeya: for me, i found my 8192E native linux drivers there, after a bit of digging
[06:36] <WaltherFI> slaeya: we're not alone with the problems
[06:36] <rww> adityag: to test it first, remove the -delete part
[06:37] <adityag> rww : ok
[06:37] <WaltherFI> rww: now that's handy
[06:37] <rww> psypher246: As I said, it used to be set up that way. After the ten thousandth time asking bug reporters for information that's automatically added by ubuntu-bug, the current setup starts looking less silly.
[06:38] <z0mb13> so anyone else excited about the new commodore 64 running ubuntu?!
[06:38] <WaltherFI> z0mb13: wow, really?
[06:38] <z0mb13> hell yes
[06:38] <WaltherFI> hm, got to get one of those
[06:38] <bazhang> !ot > z0mb13
[06:40] <slaeya> WaltherFI: could it still be the driver if the issue is intermittent ?
[06:40] <JAQK-Joker> And one more thing before I leave can type English words in there British form for example, "harbour" American "harbor".
[06:41] <slaeya> WaltherFI: I have created 8 Different SSIDs with various types of auth and cannot auth on the WEP SSIDs
[06:42] <asrij> привет всем

[06:43] <WaltherFI> kaushal: yes
[06:43] <JAQK-Joker> Jolly good show old bean.
[06:43] <asrij> лохи пидары
[06:43] <kaushal> WaltherFI: is it available using apt-get ?
[06:43] <WaltherFI> kaushal: adobe.com has 'experimental' 64bit
[06:43] <WaltherFI> kaushal: nope. adobe.com has 64bit, been working on my system perfectly well
[06:44] <kaushal> WaltherFI: please paste me the URL ?
[06:44] <WaltherFI> kaushal: it is on the 'experimental' section, but i see no reason for it
[06:44] <WaltherFI> kaushal: oh sorry, you have to google it... i'm on my mobile phone
[06:46] <JAQK-Joker> red2kic: I am back.
[06:46] <red2kic> JAQK-Joker: Bravo. Welcome back.
[06:47] <wjlafrance> Hello! I'm trying to use Ubuntu with a PS2 keyboard, but the machine was set up for a USB keyboard. For some reason the PS2 keyboard works in BIOS but not the OS. Any ideas?
[06:48] <ayecee> wjlafrance: using the stock kernel, or a custom kernel?
[06:48] <JAQK-Joker> red2kic: Do you know about the #TV-Nihon channel?
[06:48] <wjlafrance> ayecee: stock
[06:48] <red2kic> JAQK-Joker: No. I do not.
[06:48] <ayecee> wjlafrance: no ideas then. that's pretty strange.
[06:48] <kaushal> WaltherFI: do i need to put libflashplayer.so under /usr/lib64/firefox-4.0/plugins
[06:48] <kaushal> is it a soft link ?
[06:49] <arazilla> the ubuntu-offtopic channel no longer exists?
[06:49] <JAQK-Joker> red2kic: Thank you.
[06:49] <red2kic> wjlafrance: Upgrade your keyboard to USB? :)
[06:49] <red2kic> !ot | arazilla
[06:49] <wjlafrance> red2kic: just downgraded. USB doesn't work in BIOS
[06:49] <red2kic> kaushal: ~/.mozilla/plugins (per-user directory) -- It'll work too.
[06:51] <red2kic> wjlafrance: Ah. I don't know. I do have PS2 keyboard. It have to be plugged in when you boot it up. I experienced no problems. Pretty much worked out of the box.
[06:51] <JAQK-Joker> Which is safer Windows or Ubuntu?
[06:52] <ayecee> JAQK-Joker: that is a very poor question
[06:52] <eighteens> i saw this in my logs, http://paste.ubuntu.com/592460/ "my question is, is this a bad thing?"
[06:52] <bazhang> JAQK-Joker, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat NOT here
[06:52] <JAQK-Joker> ayecee: Why?
[06:52] <newbie2011> Hi, i am interested in learning the actual theory behind linux /unix how the kernel works etc
[06:52] <ayecee> eighteens: doesn't look like a bad thing
[06:52] <bazhang> JAQK-Joker, its offtopic. take it to the proper channel.
[06:53] <ayecee> newbie2011: what do you want to know?
[06:53] <eighteens> ayecee, so the connect line, does that note that it's connected? or trying to connect
[06:53] <slaeya> eighteens: you are running a webserver I take it.
[06:54] <ayecee> eighteens: CONNECT is an http method, like GET or POST.
[06:54] <newbie2011> Well i am bored and i dont like to read something that is pretty technical and probably over my head, just as a challenge. I am curious as to how an actual operating system is constructed, etc.
[06:54] <slaeya> eighteens: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1719894&page=2
[06:54] <ayecee> it looks like each of those requests received a 302 repsonse.
[06:54] <eighteens> i noticed this recently, it has me concerned
[06:55] <eighteens> slaeya, yes i'm running a webserver
[06:55] <ayecee> newbie2011: I'm not sure I follow. you want to understand something technical without reading something technical?
[06:55] <slaeya> eighteens: read the thread I sent you.
[06:57] <WaltherFI> back here, i think someone missed me?
[06:57] <slaeya> WaltherFI: WB
[06:57] <newbie2011> No, no i do want to read the technical material. I guess what i am looking for is a place where i can start learning the real nitty gritty details of how a computer works. I know how to build a computer given the components, i can compile and run programs on linux, i can build a computer network, but i want to understand the details behind all of it.
[06:58] <bazhang> newbie2011, thats far outside the scope of this channel.
[06:58] <slaeya> Battling with super slow internet and lag at the office :(
[06:59] <ayecee> newbie2011: good luck with that.
[06:59] <WaltherFI> slaeya: huh?
[06:59] <newbie2011> Well thats exactly why i came back to IRC id figure someone would be able to point me in the right direction. I wasnt sure where to start though, so i tried here
[06:59] <slaeya> lol nevermind.
[06:59] <bazhang> !alis | newbie2011 check here
[07:00] <bazhang> newbie2011, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat, here for ubuntu support
[07:01] <slaeya> !god
[07:01] <newbie2011> Ok thanks.
[07:01] <bazhang> slaeya, /msg ubottu please
[07:01] <JAQK-Joker> Also if anybody was wondering I got my name from watching the Tokusatsu show J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai (ジャッカー電撃隊).
[07:01] <slaeya> baz ... that was in the wrong room sorry
[07:01] <kkerwin> Howdy. I have an old (8 years) desktop that I'm thinking about repurposing as a word processor. The unit has 512MB RAM and a Pentium 4. Would this be a better candidate for Lubuntu, or for a thin client? Potential server of the thin client (were I to elect to go that route) is a dual-core 4GB RAM laptop, which is already my main.
[07:02] <bazhang> kkerwin, lubuntu would be speedy on that
[07:02] <tsaknorris> good morning. i would wanna ask, does SMB require always username/password?  If i make file where everybody has read/write access....
[07:02] <ayecee> kkerwin: perfectly suitable for full ubuntu.
[07:02] <slaeya> tsaknorris: no smb can be run without auth
[07:03] <kkerwin> ayecee: If I were to go that route, I would prefer KDE. Would I still be good there?
[07:03]  * kkerwin Ducks to avoid tomato...
[07:03] <ayecee> kkerwin: sure, though you probably wouldn't get all the eye candy.
[07:03] <rww> kkerwin: Try it and see. It's worked for me in the past.
[07:04] <slaeya> tsaknorris: did you have a specific problem or just asking?
[07:04] <kkerwin> ayecee, rww, and bazhang: Thank you very much. I'm really looking forward to this project. For some reason, repurposing older computers is more exciting to me than working with top of the line stuff ...
[07:05] <rww> same here :)
[07:05] <tsaknorris> slaeya hmm ok... i want to user network scanner to scan to my server folder...but if choose to leave username and password empty (even folder has rights for everybody) it doesnt wanna send scanned pdf there :/
[07:06] <tsaknorris> user = use
[07:07] <tsaknorris> it isnt enough if i have correct domain.
[07:07] <slaeya> tsaknorris, pastebin.ubuntu.com smb.conf
[07:08] <tsaknorris> that xerox scanner wants to have username...i cant now. this is different domain and different pc.
[07:08] <slaeya> well use a guest one if it requires one
[07:10] <liuzhili5300> ni  hao

[07:15] <borillion_> does anyone know if there is a way to print a page out as a image instead of a pdf, it gets messed up when I do pdf
[07:15] <WaltherFI> borillion_: export as png?
[07:15] <WaltherFI> borillion_: or, other image format
[07:15] <slaeya> grrrr .wireless nightmare - I feel like throwing the thing.
[07:15] <WaltherFI> slaeya: have you found the driver?
[07:15] <borillion_> WaltherFI didn't think of that one
[07:16] <Morfeo> hi
[07:16] <slaeya> WaltherFI: yep installed etc.
[07:16] <slaeya> same problem with WEP Authentication
[07:16] <WaltherFI> borillion_: i guess most of the office programs can do the exporting natively straight from enus
[07:16] <WaltherFI> menus*
[07:16] <slaeya> WaltherFI: WPA WPA2 and No Security all work.
[07:16] <slaeya> just not WEP
[07:16] <borillion_> WaltherFI from chrome or firefox tho
[07:17] <WaltherFI> slaeya: strange... have you checked that you're using the correct settings for wep key? open/shared, key number etc
[07:17] <WaltherFI> borillion_: grab a screenshot perhaps?
[07:17] <Morfeo> support channel in spanish???, thanks and sorry
[07:18] <bazhang> Morfeo, #ubuntu-es
[07:18] <WaltherFI> !sp
[07:18] <WaltherFI> oh that one
[07:18] <WaltherFI> hm, i'm getting rusty at ubottuing
[07:18] <borillion_> WaltherFI LOL, thats an ugly way to do it
[07:18] <slaeya> WaltherFI: yeah I did check all of that.  I have 8 ssids still running with various configurations and I can connect on this laptop on all 8 just not the new ubuntu install :(
[07:19] <Morfeo> bazhang, ,,,, thanks
[07:19] <WaltherFI> slaeya: strange... you could try emailing Realtek to get the latest drivers, they seem to have very good service
[07:20] <WaltherFI> slaeya: someone sent email on saturday and got the newest drivers... on sunday
[07:21] <slaeya> WaltherFI: thanks I emailed them about 30 mins ago when you advised me to, I'm just frustrated as its probably something I've done.  Usually always is.
[07:21] <WaltherFI> slaeya: you could try pseudo-clean install
[07:22] <WaltherFI> slaeya: take the memstick, boot, install again but don't check the format
[07:22] <WaltherFI> slaeya: so it'll just remove everything conflicting
[07:22] <slaeya> oh really ?
[07:22] <WaltherFI> slaeya: also, a good excuse to try ubuntu 11.04 ;)
[07:23] <slaeya> WaltherFI: I'll install 11.04 on here but not on this other laptop... its too important to get wrong.  Although it will be wired 24/7 I like to make sure everything works
[07:23] <WaltherFI> slaeya: sure. Have you tried connecting old-fashioned way with iwconfig?
[07:24] <truculent> anybody here running dual monitors with 11.04?
[07:24] <WaltherFI> truculent: #ubuntu+1
[07:24] <slaeya> WaltherFI: yes I have ;)
[07:24] <WaltherFI> slaeya: hm, dunno then
[07:24] <WaltherFI> anyway, i've got to leave for schoo
[07:24] <slaeya> WaltherFI: The puzzling thing is it affects WEP only
[07:25] <slaeya> WaltherFI: thanks take it easy7
[07:25] <WaltherFI> slaeya: wep is strange in itself, and old and insecure
[07:25] <slaeya> I dislike WEP its a solution I have to support until they upgrade though :(
[07:25] <slaeya> solution was the wrong word (hardware)
[07:27] <abstrakt>  anyone happen to know why my error messages aren't all "prettified" from xdebug?
[07:27] <abstrakt> is that a compile time option or something? aka does the ubuntu package just not ahve this?
[07:27] <Schala> I've been having trouble with Ubuntu's MinGW cross compiler, if help for that applies here.

[07:36] <Dude> Seven_Six_Two, what stops ? hmm maybe I explained it bad, the current problem is when I change visual effects for example on normal, it says do I wanna keep the changes and I choose yes but when its done and I close the window, there is no effect, and when I go to the visual effects window, its still on none
[07:36] <Morfeo> good night, I need documentation on debmirror, anyone know where I could find it?
[07:36] <Seven_Six_Two> seena, look in synaptic for mysql and install either the metapackage (look in descriptions) or the server and client. Usually the metapackage will depend on the latest version in the repository
[07:36] <Blashyrkh> okay i think i just had to install standard gnome themes as well :)

[07:40] <seena> gnugr: i want mysql 5.0
[07:40] <ZykoticK9> Seven_Six_Two, it might be easier in future to suggest "glxinfo | grep -i direct" which searches both upper and lower case.
[07:41] <rasyid> seena : why you want mysql 5.1??
 i do not want lamp server to be installed, any way i am using python not php
[07:41] <Seven_Six_Two> Dude, ok, in a terminal, try      compiz --replace

[07:47] <Dude> soreau, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/592479/
[07:47] <Seven_Six_Two> soreau, is metacity deprecated too? I am falling behind! Too much school work I tell you...
[07:47] <soreau> Seven_Six_Two: metacity is the default wm for gnome
[07:47] <soreau> doesnt have anything to do with compiz
[07:47] <Seven_Six_Two> soreau, no, but it provides a decorator
[07:48] <soreau> Dude: Install compiz
[07:48] <Sheepherd> hi all. in this description of the apt-get man http://paste.pocoo.org/show/369474/ what do theses numbers behind the packages mean exactly?
[07:48] <soreau> Seven_Six_Two: No, it doesnt
[07:48] <Dude> soreau, my problem is from compiz, I installed it two times again and it didn't help
[07:48] <morgan> anyone got a lil hardware advice, i applied pressure accidentally to a heatsink on a new motherboard n it kinda cracked loose. still held in place but I'm worried maybe I busted the thermal paste. Theres a pic here, blue sink middle to the left http://www.alphacity.co.nz/images/consumables/M4A88TD-M.jpg
[07:48] <soreau> Dude: What are you trying to do ultimately?
[07:49] <soreau> morgan: Try ##hardware
[07:49] <rasyid>  sorry ... i'm using ubuntu 10.04 and i get problem black/blank screen when swicth user any idea ??
[07:49] <rizanoar> hello what method to compile .tar.gz is?
[07:49] <Dude> soreau: no, but I just restarted again and now, it gives me the error of "composite extension is not available"
[07:49] <morgan> soreau - cheers
[07:50] <soreau> ! compile | rizanoar
[07:50] <clean> Are there anyone using  firefox 4 ?
[07:50] <Visitor_1971> question: I just installed (k)ubuntu and would like to try out the new KDE, but cannot find any options that let me do that... how do I start KDE?
[07:50] <soreau> Dude: What are you ultimately trying to accomplish?
[07:50] <rizanoar> thanks man!
[07:50] <fission6> would an application run faster if it were built from source rather than installed using apt-get? assuming apt-get is not buildin form source
[07:50] <Dude> soreau, what do you mean ?
[07:50] <ZykoticK9> fission6, unlikely, perhaps slower even.
[07:50] <fission6> really?
[07:50] <fission6> how so
[07:51] <soreau> Dude: Im asking why are you here, what is your problem with ubuntu?
[07:51] <Morfeo> Visitor_1971, apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:51] <Dude> soreau, come on ! I was explaining my problem for half an hour for seven_six_two >.> you started helping me so I thought you know whats my problem
[07:51] <clean> Are there anyone using firefox 4 ?;-)
[07:51] <ZykoticK9> fission6, if you compile with optimizations it can lead to larger executables that run slower (this from my gentoo-rice days)
[07:51] <Visitor_1971> Morfeo: I did that it still brings me to the gdm and only lets me start unity
[07:52] <Seven_Six_Two> Visitor_1971, there should be a drop down menu at the login screen that lets you select the session.
[07:52] <fission6> thats sort of backwards
[07:52] <ZykoticK9> clean, i am, but not on ubuntu.  ask your real question.
[07:52] <Visitor_1971> Seven_Six_Two: there isn't
[07:52] <Dude> soreau, give me a moment I'll write my problem for you again
[07:52] <soreau> fission6: It depends on what application. Some source might be able to be configured differently though ubuntu has optimization tests for most important apps
[07:52] <Seven_Six_Two> Visitor_1971, did you install all of the kde packages, or just certain ones?
[07:53] <fission6> interesting, i am thinking for a lot of daemon / server code
[07:53] <soreau> ! 11.04 | Visitor_1971
[07:53] <fission6> ie memcached
[07:53] <fission6> nginx
[07:53] <Seven_Six_Two> Dude, on some clients, using the up arrow will cycle old messages
[07:53] <Dude> Seven_Six_Two, thanks ^^
[07:53] <Visitor_1971> not all of them, but I DID install kubuntu-desktop
[07:54] <soreau> Dude: Same applies for terminals, in case you didnt know
[07:54] <Dude> soreau, I was happy with normal visual effects until I installed advanced desktop effects, then my linux froze and I had to restart it, after it, I removed ADE and tried to get back to normal visual effects but now it shows me "Composit extension is not available" I tried reinstalling my driver even but didnt work.
[07:55] <soreau> Dude: Are you using nvidia?
[07:55] <seena> rasyid: i will get only rpm packages in mysql.org
[07:55] <Dude> soreau, yes nvidia geforce 9800 gtx+
[07:55] <Seven_Six_Two> Visitor_1971, Are you on 11.04? if so, please use the #ubuntu+1 channel. I don't have it installed, so I don't know about any of the issues.
[07:56] <soreau> Dude: You need to enable the composite extension. IIRC, you want twinview as xinerama disables compsite
[07:56] <soreau> compositing*
[07:56] <Dude> soreau, can you tell me how ?
[07:56] <Seven_Six_Two> Dude, do you have nvidia-settings installed?
[07:56] <Dude> Seven_Six_Two, yes I do
[07:56] <soreau> Dude: I am not familiar with nvidia. Pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log file to paste.ubuntu.com
[07:56] <Dude> Seven_Six_Two, or I think so
[07:57] <rasyid>  sorry ... i'm using ubuntu 10.04 and i get problem black/blank screen when swicth user any idea guys??
[07:57] <soreau> Or at least, Im more familiar with open drivers
[07:57] <Seven_Six_Two> Dude, if you start it with sudo, it will save your xorg.conf if you make settings that work for you. I can confirm twinview if you have multiple monitors
[07:58] <Dude> soreau: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/592483/   I'm using two monitors
[07:58] <ZykoticK9> Dude, Seven_Six_Two use "gksu nvidia-settings" not sudo
[07:58] <phonex01> guys i have problem
[07:58] <phonex01> im trying to mount one of my drives and i have this error mesg
[07:58] <phonex01> Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
[07:58] <phonex01> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /
[07:58] <phonex01> mount failed
[07:58] <FloodBot3> phonex01: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:58] <soreau> Dude: I said /var/log/Xorg.0.log, not /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:58] <ikonia> phonex01: / is already mounted, you're  using it, it's your root files system
[07:59] <Dude> soreau, oh sry
[07:59] <ZykoticK9> phonex01, the drive you are mounting is not /dev/sda1 - that's your root partition
[07:59] <phonex01> ok then !
[07:59] <Seven_Six_Two> ZykoticK9, what for? gksudo is a front-end.
[08:00] <Dude> soreau, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/592485/
[08:00] <ZykoticK9> Seven_Six_Two, if you using sudo with GUI apps you can land yourself in trouble - use gksudo instead
[08:00] <ZykoticK9> !gksu > Seven_Six_Two
[08:01] <soreau> Dude: You see how it has xinerama 1 in xorg.conf? When you use nvidia-settings to enable twinview and disable xinerama, compositing will be enabled after you save and restart X
[08:01] <rizanoar> great
[08:01] <Evanescence> how to install unionfs-module in ubuntu Lucid ? I can not find it .
[08:01] <soreau> Dude: Use gksu nvidia-settings (sys>admin>nvidia-blah)
[08:01] <Dude> soreau, I know, let me try to change
[08:02] <Dude> soreau, okay its done. but I need my monitors be spreated not the same
[08:03] <soreau> Dude: What do you mean by that?
[08:03] <Critycal> hey my openUBUNTU version is acting weird
[08:03] <Critycal> can someone help me
[08:03] <Critycal> i removed some sudo fles
[08:03] <Critycal> files
[08:03] <soreau> Dude: Cant you set them up that way in nvidia-settings?
[08:03] <Critycal> but it doesnt work
[08:03] <Dude> soreau,  nothing, so now I need to restart ?
[08:03] <soreau> ! enter | Critycal
[08:03] <soreau> Dude: yes
[08:04] <soreau> Dude: At least restart X by logging out
[08:04] <magn3ts> how can I create virtual network devices and let applications leverage connections on each one?
[08:04] <Critycal> soreau do you know why my openUBUNTU is barely working?
[08:04] <soreau> ! work | Critycal
[08:05] <soreau> magn3ts: Try ##networking?
[08:05] <ZykoticK9> Critycal, what is openUBUNTU?
[08:05] <Critycal> i get weird errors soreau
[08:05] <Critycal> ZykoticK9 it's a special repack
[08:05] <soreau> ! paste | Critycal
[08:06] <Critycal> wow you so rude
[08:06] <Critycal> using chatbots for helping me
[08:06] <Critycal> i herd help was nice here
[08:06] <ZykoticK9> Critycal, do you have a link?  Google doesn't seem to find it?
[08:06] <soreau> Critycal: We are supposed to guess what errors you have?
[08:06] <soreau> That is hardly practical
[08:06] <soreau> Instead, use a pastebin service to show what errors you get
[08:06] <Dude> soreau, I can change to normal or extra but after I close it, there is no change and when I reopen it, its still on None !
[08:06] <Critycal> its a gedit error, it just turns everything i create in a gedit shortcut/executable
[08:07] <soreau> Dude: Pastebin the output of compiz --replace now
[08:07] <soreau> Dude: and dpkg -l|grep compiz
[08:07] <Amtrask> Is 11.04 going to use GNOME or Unity?
[08:07] <Seven_Six_Two> ZykoticK9, like starting it from a launcher instead of a terminal? those references you sent (to a non ubuntu site) reference articles that are 5 years old, and are not at all applicable to sudo vs gksudo.
[08:07] <Critycal> Amtrask: xcfe
[08:07] <soreau> ! 11.04 | Amtrask
[08:07] <Guest96975> I use feroda 14 on my virtualbox when I try ping www.google.com I get unknow ping:...
[08:08] <soreau> Guest96975: Try #fedora
[08:08] <vish> Guest96975: ask in fedora channels.. :)
[08:08] <jOZe> hola
[08:08] <Dude> soreau, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/592487/ And http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/592488/
[08:08] <soreau> ! es | jOZe
[08:08] <Critycal> Guest96975 : uhm did you try to use openUBUNTU yet?
[08:08] <Critycal> its a great underground svn repack
[08:08] <debd> join --window #ubuntu-motu
[08:08] <vish> Critycal: what is OpenUBUNTU, and why are you advertising that here?
[08:08] <ZykoticK9> Seven_Six_Two, actually they still are.  If you start nvidia-settings from the menu, it won't right to xorg.conf (no elevated privilege), so you need to start nvidia-settings with gksu -- if you using sudo you can break your system.  which is explained in the !gksu factoid.
[08:08] <soreau> Dude: sudo apt-get install compiz
[08:09] <Critycal> vish: it's a underground repacker
[08:09] <Critycal> it works good
[08:09] <Critycal> but not anymore
[08:09] <Critycal> cause gedit makes not document but shortcuts and executables
[08:09] <jOZe> ok soreau
[08:09] <vish> Critycal: any links? if its not in the official ubuntu repo , pls dont suggest those here
[08:09] <gnugr> Dude: to start compiz it might help you this command: " gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager compiz "
[08:10] <ZykoticK9> vish, Critycal wouldn't answer me either ;)  OpenUbuntu???
[08:10] <Dude> soreau,it worked !! thanks
[08:10] <vish> ZykoticK9: yea, i noticed :)
[08:10] <soreau> Dude: You are welcome.
[08:10] <soreau> ZykoticK9: nvidia-settings asks for password if it needs privs
[08:10] <Dude> soreau, you are awesome ^^ one thing, why the borders are orange now instead of black !?
[08:10] <soreau> ZykoticK9: From the menu entry
[08:11] <Rask> Sorta nooby linux question here - once you've changed /etc/group, how do you 'rehash' it?
[08:11] <soreau> Dude: You need to configure your decorator. Remove emerald and restart compiz or use emerald-theme-manager to select a decorator
[08:11] <ZykoticK9> soreau, that's newish ;)  but much improved.  thanks.  sorry Seven_Six_Two my bad.  (but i'm not wrong about the sudo vs gksu)
[08:11] <soreau> theme
[08:11] <Dude> soreau, ahh okay I'll try
[08:12] <viks_> can we remove all applcation for local user
[08:12] <nighter> Rask: no need to rehash it.
[08:12] <Seven_Six_Two> ZykoticK9, sorry, not the site. Just the references from the site. circa 2006. The site itself looks nice
[08:12] <soreau> Dude: Alternatively start gtk-w-d with gtk-window-decorator --replace
[08:12] <Rask> nighter: No?  Rats, something else must be wrong, then
[08:12] <nyuszika7h> Hi!
[08:13] <Reminy> Real newbie question: I've forgotten my Ubuntu 10.10 password. I have already googled solutions, but they all involve GRUB (Which isnt showing during boot or if I press ESC during bootup) are there any other ways of resetting a forgotten password? Or another way to bring GRUB2 up?
[08:13] <ZykoticK9> Reminy, hold down SHIFT to get Grub2 menu
[08:13] <Reminy> Thank you, ZykoticK9, I'll try it now
[08:14] <Dude> soreau, this one has custome skins, I mean where did the default them of 10.,10 go ?
[08:14] <nyuszika7h> Flash games seem to have a very bad font in Ubuntu... why? I tried Liberation Sans, Ubuntu, DejaVu Sans (current) -- no change at all.
[08:14] <Reminy> It worked! Thanks a lot ZykoticK9, love you dude :)
[08:14] <soreau> Dude: Try running gtk-window-decorator --replace and see what happens (from Alt+F2 run dialog)
[08:14] <m4lyx> j ubuntu-server
[08:14] <m4lyx> ups
[08:15] <Dude> soreau, :P love you
[08:15] <soreau> Dude: I suspect you are currently using the emerald decorator which uses its own themes. gtk-w-d uses metacity/gtk themes
[08:15] <soreau> Seven_Six_Two: And that is how you fix compiz :)
[08:15] <Dude> soreau, yea it worked ^^
[08:15] <Seven_Six_Two> soreau, good job!
[08:15] <viks_> how to disable all the applcation for local user in ubuntu
[08:15] <Dude> Thanks to all for helping again, have a good day
[08:18] <slaeya> has anyone had any luck with RTL8101SEvB Wireless on UBUNTU ?
[08:18] <soreau> ! realtek
[08:18] <slaeya> soreau: thanks
[08:19] <Critycal> you guys got em?
[08:19] <nyuszika7h> Nobody?
[08:19] <Critycal> nyuszika7h u got em?
[08:19] <clean> Are there anybody using firefox 4 ?
[08:20] <nyuszika7h> clean: yep
[08:20] <andrew_46> clean: Using it here :)
[08:20] <clean> I can't run firefox 4 by ./firefox-bin
[08:20] <Morfeo> clean, i am
[08:20] <slaeya> sorry it was a RTL8191SEvB which isn't supported in that documentation but I'll google away
[08:20] <clean> ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:20] <nyuszika7h> !ff4 | clean
[08:20] <clean> ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:21] <soreau> slaeya: I think realtek and broadcom need driver installation/tweaking
[08:21] <soreau> Other main brand chips have open drivers
[08:21] <clean> ubottu: thanks I know this , but I want to run firefox 4 without install it and replace my firefox 3.6.16
[08:21] <rww> I used to have a realtek that worked out of the box. Wifi cards tend to be very variable depending on model.
[08:22] <unam3> Hello everyone! Im in need of kernel 2.6.39-rc's asus-wmi driver....  I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit, does anyone got a suggestion?, cause I feel pretty lost after tried to compile the kernel that worked except for the NVIDIA driver.....
[08:22] <soreau> rww: Isnt realtek RLT chipsets? (independent from branding names)
[08:22] <soreau> Im more familiar with atheros
[08:23] <rww> soreau: Yes. model, chipset, whatevs.
[08:23] <rww> "Depending on which one you have" :)
[08:23] <slaeya> rww: I also had Realtek that worked out of the box, this one is just perplexing.  It worked on the live cd on WPA only now it doesn't even work.
[08:23] <soreau> I guess thats the kicker
[08:23] <soreau> slaeya: Does lsmod show the module is loaded for it?
[08:24] <soreau> slaeya: Or dmesg show anything interesting?
[08:24] <slaeya> lsmod - shows   r8192se_pci
[08:25] <soreau> slaeya: Do you have an interface shown in iwconfig output?
[08:25] <slaeya> soreau yes I do.
[08:25] <soreau> slaeya: wlan0 or what is it called
[08:26] <slaeya> wlan0
[08:26] <Guest21843> #join
[08:26] <slaeya> I can type it all into pastebin if you like ?
[08:26] <soreau> slaeya: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | grep -i ssid
[08:26] <soreau> slaeya: Does it show APs?
[08:27] <slaeya> soreau: none at all.
[08:27] <soreau> slaeya: bummer
[08:27] <slaeya> whereas on this machine I can see all 8
[08:27] <soreau> slaeya: Im not familiar with realtek
[08:28] <soreau> maybe it needs some other driver
[08:28] <slaeya> soreau: thanks, I'll keep playing ... I love my atheros ... it just works :p
[08:28] <soreau> No doubt
[08:28] <laza> Running natty building modules via dkms stopped working.It complains "Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed." But I have the sources installed. Any hints?
[08:28] <damno> today my successful build !!
[08:29] <soreau> ! natty | laza
[08:29] <rizanoar> how to restoring lost gnome panel?
[08:29] <rizanoar> i screw up
[08:29] <soreau> ! resetpanel | rizanoar
[08:30] <rizanoar> okay, i will try
[08:30] <rizanoar> amazing, it's working
[08:30] <rizanoar> thanks
[08:35] <slaeya> soreau: just out of interest shouldn't I be able to modprobe ?
[08:35] <viks_> k
[08:37] <nyuszika7h> If anyone ever wants to use Flash on Ubuntu, gsfonts-x11 and msttcorefonts is a must have... text in Flash just looks ugly without them.
[08:39] <red2kic> Surf the net without flash is a must!
[08:42] <nyuszika7h> red2kic: Yeah, HTML5 is the future... but it takes a while for *every* site switch from Flash to HTML5...
[08:42] <nyuszika7h> And 'while' can be monhts... years... and more...
[08:42] <aaron_c> is now the time to start learning html5?
[08:42] <red2kic> I doubt it will happen. People are still using IE6. :\
[08:42] <aaron_c> or can we wait for another year
[08:43] <ewww> hello people, whats the cause of "time to live exceeded"
[08:43] <red2kic> What are you waiting for? An engraved invitation to learn HTML5? :)
[08:43] <ewww> i havent done anything in the network
[08:44] <nyuszika7h> aaron_c: It's best to use HTML5 if available, and fallback to Flash... except for things like games -- it would be hard to make them in both.
[08:44] <arghos> oh yeah lol
[08:45] <slaeya> rww: are you still lurking ?
[08:45] <rww> slaeya: kinda.
[08:45] <rww> about to go to bed
[08:45] <opera> what is mean shuttleworth?
[08:45] <slaeya> rww: quick wireless question.  From the link you gave me before I managed to get the wireless adapter working but cant connect to any APs with security.
[08:46] <rww> opera: Shuttleworth is the family name of the person in charge of the Ubuntu project.
[08:46] <slaeya> anything you know I could read on that ?
[08:46] <rww> slaeya: I don't remember giving you a link :S
[08:47] <slaeya> rww: maybe its just me messing up names again ... I'll keep googling ;) thanks
[08:47] <nyuszika7h> Another question: my ASUS K50AF series laptop came with a program called "SRS Premium Sound" or something like that, and it makes sounds much better... is it possible to install something similiar in Ubuntu?
[08:47] <rasyid> sorry ... i'm using ubuntu 10.04 and i get problem black/blank screen when swicth user any idea guys??
[08:49] <popey> nyuszika7h: taken a look on their website? http://srslabs.com/premiumsound/
[08:50] <slaeya> rasyid: try ctrl + alt + F7 through F12 and see if it brings the logon screen back up
[08:52] <pneftali> hi
[08:52] <rasyid> slaeya: thanks for your respon
[08:52] <slaeya> rasyid: did you have any luck ?
[08:52] <pneftali> what does it mean if a directory name has '.' in the first character
[08:53] <Kimmen> pneftali: it's the current directory
[08:53] <clean> after I close firefox 3.6, it works !
[08:53] <pneftali> Kimmen, no... the directory name is ".asdf"
[08:54] <Kimmen> pneftali: . is current dir, .xxxx is usually hidden dir
[08:54] <rasyid> slaeya : not yet, I'm already try  try ctrl + alt + F7 and get login screen but if i swicth user from panel again i get black screen again and i must reboot
[08:54] <Starminn> pneftali: It means it's a "hidden directory"
[08:54] <pneftali> hmmmm.
[08:54] <pneftali> okay thanks Starminn
[08:55] <csenges> hi, i'm still on ubuntu 8.04 (hardy) amd64 arch. I need to install a 32bit binary (oracle xe). There a plenty of tutorial how to do it, they all say i should install "apt-get install lib6c-i386", however this package is not in my apt-sources. Need i to add a specific source or download the deb package?
[08:55] <Starminn> pneftali: You know how in Windows certain directories and files are hidden? And it's a pain to unhide them? In Linux, if you want to "hide" a directory, just add a "." in front of it and to view it do View->Show Hidden Files or something
[08:55] <Ben64> csenges: you should really upgrade to 10.04 at least
[08:56] <rasyid> slaeya : you have another idea ?
[08:56] <Starminn> csenges: 8.04 will no longer be support at the end of this month.
[08:58] <slaeya> rasyid: do you have a nvidia card and the latest nvidia drivers ?
[08:58] <natty> help!!!
[08:59] <csenges> Ben64, Starminn: You're right, but that is on the admins table. You may know if it is possible to install libc6-i386 on a amd64 arch in general?
[08:59] <natty> I need your help,
[08:59] <natty> I cant install a fast ethernet driver in Ubuntu.
[09:00] <slaeya> natty: what sort of driver do you have?
[09:00] <rasyid> slaeya: i'm using intel
[09:00] <slaeya> sorry I meant hardware
[09:00] <natty> It dosent seen to recorgnise the fast ethernet controller and it does not connect to the internet
[09:00] <Ben64> natty: need to know the hardware to help you
[09:00] <Starminn> csenges: I know nothing of Arch, but this might help? http://littlebrain.org/2008/05/12/how-to-install-oracle-xe-in-ubuntu-64-bit/
[09:01] <slaeya> brb ... going for dinner
[09:01] <natty> slaeya: I have JMicron PCI Express Fast ethernet,
[09:01] <Starminn> csenges: It's 3 years old though. *shrug*
[09:01] <Ben64> natty: what does lspci say
[09:01] <csenges> starminn: this is exactly one of the tutorials depending on installing lib6c-386. I just cannot install it on amd64.
[09:01] <natty> it doesn't show anything
[09:02] <Starminn> csenges: Oh... I gotcha. So in that page the "sudo apt-get libc6-i386" doesn't work for you, right?
[09:03] <natty> slaeya: is there a way to add the .inf file and sys file to my directories
[09:03] <csenges> starminn: right, i just downloaded the package from packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/amd64/libc6-i386, hope that works out
[09:04] <Ben64> hardy packages are only going to exist for a few more weeks
[09:04] <Starminn> csenges: I was actually about to link you to this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libc6-i386 as it says, "This is the 32bit version of the library, meant for AMD64 systems. "
[09:04] <Starminn> Ben64: He has no control over that
[09:04] <natty> Ben64: How do I add the .inf file and the .sys file to my Ubuntu?
[09:04] <Ben64> natty: huh? those are for windows
[09:04] <natty> yes, sure.
[09:05] <Ben64> ubuntu is not windows : /
[09:05] <dyd> hi all
[09:05] <natty> Ben64: I am sure its not.
[09:05] <Starminn> !details | natty
[09:05] <natty> Ben64: will ndiswrapper work?
[09:05] <gnugr> natty: try #bill-gates
[09:05] <Ben64> natty: what does lspci say
[09:06] <dyd> in windows xp there is an option to have a better mouse "accuracy" (in italian "aumenta precisione puntatore"). Is there any way to set this also in ubuntu? the mouse feels weird
[09:06] <natty> Ben64: bill; what about him?
[09:07] <Starminn> dyd: System->Preferences->Mouse
[09:07] <Starminn> dyd: I'd say it's "Sensitivty"
[09:08] <Starminn> natty: Open up a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal) and type in "lspci" and post the output to http://pastebin.com
[09:09] <Starminn> natty: That way Ben64 can help you like he's trying to do.
[09:09] <Ben64> i gave up from the smart-bum response
[09:09] <dyd> Strarminn: no it's not just that, in xp it's like a checkbox that you can turn on or off, not a slide, the difference is not so much, but helps so much when you move the pointer just a little
[09:09] <chinni009> Hello
[09:10] <xragu> HI
[09:11] <jhala> is there any package in ubuntu wheich can show geolocation when mac address is known
[09:11] <Heliodor> What can cause 100% cpu on samba, sftpd when copying large files over network?
[09:12] <Ben64> jhala: geolocation is not possible from mac address
[09:12] <Starminn> dyd: And you've tried the slider and noticed nothing?
[09:12] <jhala> Ben64: what else: i have just lost my netbook.
[09:12] <Ben64> what?
[09:12] <dyd> Starminn: yes this just sets sensitivity, like in xp, and it works fine
[09:13] <xragu> Anyone can help understand IPv6 addressing
[09:13] <xragu> ?
[09:13] <xragu> Please
[09:13] <Ben64> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6
[09:13] <rasyid> slaeya, are you still ? :)
[09:13] <dyd> Starminn: there's a screenshot of the menu i'm talking about (xp): http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Af_weWLxNnw/TRTWAHOJoGI/AAAAAAAABns/f_re1z3zH8Q/s1600/precisione_mouse.jpg
[09:13] <jhala> Ben64: I need to track my netbook as soon as it gets attached to a wifi or network since mac wont change
[09:14] <Ben64> mac address is not possible to find out over the internet
[09:14] <papaya> anyone here?
[09:14] <gnugr> xragu: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/
[09:14] <papaya>   If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.  For more details, read about the executable bit.
[09:15] <Starminn> dyd: I know the one. I dual-boot XP (though I've not touched it in months, I'll admit). I just would think that  Sensitivity would do that. I fnot, I don't know.
[09:15] <Starminn> papaya: Running something in WINE?
[09:15] <kickingvegas> Ok, just did an apt-get install LLLSDLaserControl. Let the fun begin. #finallywatchedtronlegacy
[09:15] <papaya> yes
[09:15] <dyd> Starminn: thank you anyway
[09:15] <papaya> can you help me ?
[09:15] <tuxx-> LLLSDLaserControl ftw
[09:15] <tuxx-> \o/
[09:16] <Starminn> papaya: Sometimes when you just try to "double-click" on a WINE program it gives you that. Instead, navigate to it from the terminal and do "wine /path/to/file" and it should work fine.
[09:16] <papaya> ok  ,I try
[09:17] <lolmatic> hi
[09:17] <kickingvegas> tuxx-: actually I'm having trouble getting LLSDLaserControl to work; know where I can find the right driver?
[09:17] <lolmatic> how do i get folder based navigation in rhythmbox?
[09:17] <Starminn> kickngvegas: Woot! (Say that in #ubuntu-offtopic for a better audience)
[09:17] <papaya> yes ,It  works
[09:18] <papaya> thank you
[09:18] <kickingvegas> Starminn: ok
[09:18] <tuxx-> kickingvegas: you'll have to use the ENCOM linux drivers for that to work.
[09:19] <Starminn> papaya: Awesome.  Sadly that's the only way to get around that that I know of. IF you want to make things easier on yourself you could make a bash script to do that. Just to "#! /bin/bash" as the first line then the second "wine /path/to/file" and make a launcher for it. That way when you click it should work
[09:20] <papaya> thanks a lot
[09:20] <red2kic> Alias can do the trick too.
[09:21] <pneftali> hi guys
[09:21] <jhala> is there any package in ubuntu wheich can show geolocation when mac address is known
[09:21] <Starminn> papaya: IF you need help with the bash launcher I can help, but that should take care of you. ;)
[09:21] <ikonia> jhala: mac has nothing to do with location
[09:21] <pneftali> is there a linux command to copy a file to another folder and automatically deletes it from its current folder ?
[09:22] <ikonia> pneftali: cp filename /newfolder && rm filename
[09:22] <Ben64> pneftali: you looking for "mv" ?
[09:22] <red2kic> pneftali: "mv" -- Move.
[09:22] <ikonia> Ben64: simpler, better
[09:22] <wjlafrance-desk> How can I make ubuntu quit asking for my password every time the screensaver pops up?
[09:22] <jhala> ikonia: why not? even emails have mac id on them!!
[09:22] <ikonia> wjlafrance-desk: disable screen locking
[09:22] <ikonia> hjertnes: the ip address is to do with location, and even that's not always accurate
[09:22] <wjlafrance-desk> ikonia, thanks
[09:24] <pneftali> ahh. how can I do that to all files in a folder in one line ?
[09:24] <pneftali> hmm mv -r ?
[09:24] <ikonia> pneftali: move is recursive
[09:25] <Ben64> jhala: emails don't have mac
[09:25] <gnugr> jhala: check this plz: http://mac360.com/index.php/mac360/comments/find-your-macs-geolocation-with-wifi-geotracking
[09:25] <Ben64> gnugr: thats not the right mac
[09:25] <JamesMR> Hi, I'm getting an error with dpkg when trying to use apt, "dpkg: syntax error in file triggers file `/var/lib/dpkg/triggers//File'" Ubuntu 10.10
[09:25] <pneftali> hmm ikonia, so mv source_folder_name destination_folder_name ?
[09:25] <papaya> how to run it?
[09:26] <ikonia> pneftali: how to run what ?
[09:26] <ikonia> pneftali: it's that simple yes
[09:26] <pneftali> ah cool. thanks :)
[09:27] <Starminn> papaya: Right-click->Properties->Permissions->Set as executable (if you're talking to me still)
[09:29] <jhala> gnugr: is there nothing similar on ubuntu like firing a daemon which continuously checks for mac . i would even pay for it.
[09:31] <arghos> Gone quiet?
[09:32] <gnugr> jhala: to find geolocation on mac: " HotSpot/Wlan + GPS + Google =  Your LOCATION! "
[09:33] <verywiseman> when i start my system , it need to make filesystem repair , and when i make repair by fsck.ext4, this error appear "This program cannot start until you start the dbus system service", where is problem?
[09:34] <ikonia> verywiseman: why do you need to repair your file system, what's the problem
[09:36] <bodai> hi there!got a built in firewire card to my laptop.my problem is that I can't use it as a network controller.what can I do?
[09:36] <verywiseman> ikonia, because i make unclean shutdown , so system enforce me to make filesystem check
[09:37] <ikonia> wjlafrance-desk: it should do that automatically on boot up,
[09:37] <montezuma> why does my nm-applet not show my configured 3g connection? all I see is "Wired network: device not managed", "Wireless networks: disconnected" (both greyed out) and "VPN connections". my 3g connection always was in the same menu above "VPN connnections", but now its not here. what do?
[09:37] <lolmatic> lolmatic: how do i get folder based navigation in rhythmbox?
[09:38] <Ben64> jhala: what exactly are you trying to do
[09:41] <jhala> Ben64: my netbook is stolen last night. i have it's mac address stored in my phone's bluetooth settings. i want to see if i can track the laptop whenever the thief switches it's wifi on . i need to question the servers of data providers for this .
[09:42] <jhala> Ben64: and it has some important documents and data
[09:42] <gnugr> montezuma: pastebin to us what you get when you type: " iwlist scan "
[09:42] <Ben64> jhala: thats pretty much impossible
[09:42] <mehdi> how can i make network lan btwn a pc and laptop?
[09:43] <Ben64> jhala: have you contacted the police?
[09:43] <red2kic> jhala: Make a backup. Have multiple copies spreading over.
[09:43] <jhala> Ben64 : police is redundant in technology
[09:44] <montezuma> gnugr: i get lo, eth0 and wlan0 response, my 3g would have wwan0 but its not listed
[09:44] <Ben64> its not about technology, its a stolen item
[09:44] <jhala> Ben64 : yes informed police
[09:44] <Ben64> you could go around with your phone or a laptop scanning for that mac address
[09:45] <Ben64> but it'd be a very small range
[09:45] <susundberg> Yeah i guess if the laptop would have some program running that would beacon a (pre-known) server X with its current IP address location could be found
[09:45] <ZykoticK9> jhala, MAC addresses are only used locally, you can't track by MAC across the internet i'm afraid.
[09:45] <montezuma> when I do lsusb my modem doesnt show up, how can I switch it on
[09:45] <montezuma> its internal but connected via usb
[09:45] <jhala> ZykoticK9: you mean there can be a similar mac somewhere else too?
[09:46] <Ben64> jhala: no, he means mac addresses don't get transmitted over the internet at all
[09:46] <gnugr> montezuma: do you have your essid?
[09:46] <ZykoticK9> jhala, shouldn't be no - but IP addresses are used on the internet
[09:46] <montezuma> essid?
[09:46] <adnan> arpa?
[09:46] <gnugr> essid number yes
[09:46] <montezuma> gnugr: i want to connect with my 3g modem, not wlan
[09:47] <gnugr> montezuma: okay m8 sorry
[09:48] <jhala> ZykoticK9:  ip are dynamic but mac cannot change . and probability of searching mac is better than ip
[09:48] <jhala> ZykoticK9:  but i think the tracking software will have similar setup to search a lost mobile
[09:48] <montezuma> its a Ericsson F3507g modem. I can't get it working with wvdial for whatever reason, so I'll try the infamous network-manager again - but the modem needs to be on for this :/
[09:48] <ZykoticK9> jhala, IP addresses are converted to MAC only locally - not across the internet.  You can't go searching for a MAC anywhere but on your local network.
[09:48] <Ben64> but you cant find mac over internet
[09:48] <wrathology> anyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter
[09:49] <red2kic> jhala: Do you know what UUID is?
[09:49] <ZykoticK9> jhala, so if the theif connects to your local network - you could get'em.
[09:49] <mvo> JamesMR: could you please file a bug against update-manager and include all the logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/* ? that should help diagnose the freeze
[09:49] <gnugr> jhala: only apple can find it with your serial number, contact apple tho
[09:50] <Ben64> gnugr: its not a macintosh!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:50] <jhala> red2kic: UUID's are device specific id's. tell me more
[09:50] <gnugr> opsssss
[09:50] <jhala> ZykoticK9: well there is no lan
[09:50] <Morgz> i know this is silly, but im installing ubuntu 10.10 off a usb onto a brand new 30gb ssd. do i create a 30gb primary partition at / or do I use less and save space for the swap?
[09:50] <red2kic> jhala: Right. MAC is the same thing for ethernet cards. What is the chance of you finding a particular UUID over Internet? Zilch. Zero.
[09:50] <jhala> gnugr: not a mac. i was a netbook.
[09:50] <ZykoticK9> jhala, then a MAC is no good for finding them.
[09:50] <Starminn> Morgz: The SSD is empty?
[09:50] <Ben64> Morgz: don't put swap on SSD
[09:51] <pentesilea> I'd like to do some artwork (wallpapers or icons) for ubuntu. Who knows, who i could contact?
[09:51] <wrathology> anyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter
[09:51] <Morgz> ssd is empty, no swap on ssd? i thought that'd be a given. so one primary partition, full size?
[09:51] <Ben64> Morgz: swap would kill an SSD quick
[09:51] <wrathology> anyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter
[09:52] <montezuma> afk now
[09:52] <Morgz> right. new tech for me, maybe i should read up a bit more, cheers
[09:52] <red2kic> pentesilea: Make your own wallpapers/icons. Release them on your own.
[09:52] <Starminn> wrathology: I guess just add the PPA or download the .deb yourself, 'eh?
[09:52] <jhala> red2kic: you mean when adapter is exposed to internet doesn't probablity to search it increase? hcitool scan displays nearest device
[09:53] <Ben64> jhala: please listen. mac addresses never ever ever ever ever ever get transmitted over the internet
[09:53] <pentesilea> red2kic: why? Are there no other options?
[09:53] <red2kic> jhala: We're talking about Bluetooth?
[09:53] <jhala> red2kic:  is the bluetooth mac different from ethernet mac?
[09:53] <Ben64> yes
[09:53] <Morgz> ben64 - so root on my ssd, i have two wd green's as ntfs... is that my only option for swap?
[09:54] <Ben64> Morgz: pretty much, yeah
[09:54] <red2kic> jhala: Ben64 is correct. It does not goes beyond local DHCP server.
[09:54] <wrathology> anything in english Starminn
[09:54] <Morgz> if i bypass the swap now, can i reassign it later?
[09:54] <Ben64> yes
[09:54] <Ben64> Morgz: how much ram do you have
[09:54] <Starminn> wrathology: Meaning that was too much "tech speak" at once? :)
[09:55] <Morgz> its a htpc, 3x3.1ghz and 4gb of 1600 CL9..
[09:55] <freetown2> green WDs? you mean them 4byte sector disks?
[09:55] <Morgz> 4x3.1ghz
[09:55] <wrathology> yes i'm very new
[09:55] <Ben64> wrathology: you have yet to explain your problem very well
[09:55] <jhala> red2kic:  if i search all ip's of routers in the city, and query for their mac then?
[09:55] <Ben64> Morgz: that should be fine without swap for normal use
[09:55] <Starminn> wrathology: Not a problem. Could you tell us/link us to what you're trying to download?
[09:55] <wrathology> anyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter
[09:55] <gnugr> montezuma: check this place: http://alumnit.ca/wiki/?page=WvDialFAQ  and this: http://alumnit.ca/wiki/?page=WvDial
[09:55] <Ben64> wrathology: you just said the same thing again, explain more
[09:55] <wrathology> the ubuntu software system says it's untrusted
[09:55] <Morgz> when i find the space, how do I assign a swap down the track?
[09:56] <Ben64> wrathology: what is "it"
[09:56] <Ben64> Morgz: you can resize the NTFS
[09:56] <paddybird> please help.i use the tool  image-usb-stick to make a usb stick to boot system.  how can it to be converted to the orignal normal usb flash drive?
[09:56] <wrathology> can someone pm me that is smart lmoa sorry
[09:56] <Ben64> !pm
[09:56] <Morgz> im just not sure I wanna risk data loss doing it from the installer. at least back it up first.. for the time being can i proceed without swap n reconfigure later?
[09:56] <lolmatic> lolmatic: how do i get folder based navigation in rhythmbox?
[09:56] <noiesmo> hi all have ubuntu box currently running two nics it is my gateway with squid trans parent proxy etc 1 nic connects to my adsl modem the other my local lan I am wanting to add a wi-fi nic to the box for my wireless local network devices is this possible
[09:56] <Ben64> Morgz: yeah you can
[09:57] <red2kic> jhala: I'm sorry you lost your netbook.  If you have existing services that runs in background (such as Gmail, Dropbox, etc). You may get luck when that thief connected to the Internet. However, if you have screensaver password enabled or anything that may stop the thief, they may install a fresh new OS already.
[09:57] <Morgz> thanx ben64
[09:57] <wrathology> lol is that a no
[09:57] <wrathology> how do i get irc on ubuntu
[09:57] <wrathology> ?
[09:57] <Starminn> Morgz: Just no hibernate and such. Other than that swap is pretty useless AFAIK (assuming you have enough RAM)
[09:58] <jlebrech> i'm liking the look of 11.04 looks a lot like os x, except it's not a blatant copy i like how the top bars on the windows work.
[09:58] <Ben64> wrathology: you still need to explain better; you're on irc now. you can download xchat and use that to get on irc too
[09:58] <Starminn> wrathology: You're on it right now.
[09:58] <Starminn> jlebrech: Natty in #ubuntu+1
[09:58] <wrathology> lol
[09:59] <Starminn> !details | wrathology
[09:59] <jhala> red2kic : no services . but even if they reinstall or whatever mac remains same
[09:59] <wrathology> i'm on my 6th pc i got one with a crashed keyboard and one with ubuntu witch is cool but i'm in the lack of knowing about it
[09:59] <Ben64> jhala: like i said, the only way to find it by mac is to physically travel around and scan for it
[09:59] <sathish> Hi I am sathish from India. Here  I have been trying to download kernel image for smdk6410 via tftp.    I am not able to settup tftp server. Could you please guide me. ( I am running ubuntu 10.04)
[10:00] <red2kic> jhala: Right. This BT adapter you speak of -- The user could stop using it and plug it out.
[10:00] <ZykoticK9> jhala, and what chance to you have of ever seen the bluetooth MAC?  are you going to drive around scanning for it?
[10:01] <Starminn> wrathology: So ask your question. What is it that you wish to accomplish, and please, give us FULL details this time.
[10:01] <jhala> red2kic , Ben64: so you mean BT adapter has a different mac than ethernet or wifi adapter. all three are present in netbook
[10:01] <red2kic> jhala: How was it stolen? You were at the cafe or such?
[10:01] <lx_> hi all
[10:01] <Ben64> ethernet, wifi, and bt all will have different MAC addresses yes
[10:01] <ZykoticK9> jhala, every network device has a different MAC
[10:01] <noiesmo> anyone ??
[10:01] <red2kic> jhala: Mac is unique, like unique fingerprints or snowflakes.
[10:01] <noiesmo> hi all have ubuntu box currently running two nics it is my gateway with squid trans parent proxy etc 1 nic connects to my adsl modem the other my local lan I am wanting to add a wi-fi nic to the box for my wireless local network devices is this possible

[10:40] <jennifer> I was wondeirng if someone could give me a hand, I got a Creative Zen X-Fi yesterday and I plug it into my Ubuntu netbook and it detects and mounts it so i can browse the files etc BUT the MP4 player will not show in Rhythmbox or banshee so i cant use a media player in ubuntu to manage my mp4
[10:41] <erUSUL> patrykr: an option missing before the chain name afaics
[10:41] <Morgz> s0phi3 - not sure, but it sounds like your browser doesn't use the default output. either use system-sound or look through the sound settings in the browser for the problem
[10:42] <patrykr> ok, I have fix the problem with iptables. Now I have next problem. Few pages doesnt work from lan
[10:42] <Morgz> ikonia - my ssd has 10.10 installed but doesn't boot (black screen flashing cursor) - can I repair the grub in case it went awol?

[10:44] <ikonia> basobdutta: I'd strongly advice against this, however visudo is the command, I suggest you read up on the sudoers file format

[11:23] <Ben64> novitololo: boot into runlevel 1 to get a root shell
[11:23] <paradoxaz> Hello.
[11:23] <novitololo> and then?
[11:23] <dag729> this is my /boot/burg/burg.cfg http://paste.ubuntu.com/592548/
[11:23] <jessicaBR> Ben64, thank you!
[11:24] <Ben64> novitololo: and then you can change passwords..
[11:24] <hyper_> I need help
[11:24] <novitololo> well... ok
[11:24] <hyper_> I installed ubuntu 10.10 but i want to use windows boot loader instead of grub
[11:24] <hyper_> How can i do it?
[11:24] <Ben64> hyper_: why would you want to
[11:25] <hyper_> Because i like windows boot loader more
[11:25] <hyper_> :)
[11:25] <ZykoticK9> hyper_, "I need help" after your next statement, I agree - but I'm not sure it's technical help you need.
[11:25] <hyper_> Not a specific reason, i just want to have windows boot loader
[11:25] <hyper_> Because if ii uninstall ubuntu
[11:25] <novitololo> Ben64: how do I boot in runlevel 1 ?
[11:25] <Ben64> windows bootloader is a lot more limited
[11:25] <hyper_> i want to have windows boot loader as default not grub
[11:25] <hyper_> If i uninstall it
[11:26] <Ben64> grub would still work without ubuntu present
[11:26] <Olipro> hyper_: XP or Vista/7?
[11:26] <hyper_> I want to get the windows boot loader back
[11:26] <s3r3n1t7> Ben64, grub wouldn't work if you remove Ubuntu, as part of grub is located in /boot/grub
[11:26] <hyper_> I have got windows 7
[11:26] <Olipro> boot an install disc and use bootrec
[11:26] <hyper_> And still be able to use ubuntu
[11:26] <Olipro> a windows install disc that is
[11:27] <Olipro> oh, no, you won't be able to do that
[11:27] <Ben64> fixmbr in windows before you remove ubuntu
[11:27] <Olipro> windows bootloader will nuke the ability to boot ubuntu
[11:27] <Ben64> problem solved
[11:27] <Olipro> so forget that now
[11:27] <hyper_> I dont want to remove ubuntu
[11:27] <dag729> novitolo: (recovery mode) is runlevel 1
[11:27] <Ben64> then use grub!
[11:27] <hyper_> I just want to use it with windows boot loader
[11:27] <novitololo> yes
[11:27] <novitololo> dag729: but from the virtual macihne
[11:27] <Olipro> the windows bootloader doesn't understand how to unpack the linux kernel or pass it options
[11:27] <novitololo> once I'm in the login screen how do I do that?
[11:27] <Olipro> so give up now.
[11:27] <gnugr> hyper_: try #bill-gates-bootloader  channel
[11:28] <soreau> hyper_: windows boot loader is not supported here. Try #windows
[11:28] <Ben64> novitololo: you never see the boot up sequence?
[11:28] <dag729> novitolo: doesn't boot using grub?
[11:28] <hutch> Windows 7 doesn't like any other o/s
[11:28] <Ben64> windows anything doesn't like anything
[11:28] <novitololo> I see a black screen but no messages at all
[11:28] <Olipro> incorrect, Windows 7 does not care
[11:28] <hutch> lol
[11:28] <dag729> novitolo: BEFORE login
[11:28] <ZykoticK9> hyper_, it's technically possible to use the windows boot loader - but non-trivial in nature (it's not meant to boot Linux, where Grub is made to boot almost anything) you're making your live difficult and for what benefit?
[11:28] <novitololo> I was trying to press some F2 or something
[11:28] <novitololo> yes, before login
[11:29] <Ben64> novitololo: on the grub screen is where you'd choose a different runlevel
[11:29] <hyper_> Is there any other boot loader i can use?
[11:29] <dag729> novitolo: start the VM, when it begins to boot keep pressed SHIFT
[11:29] <soreau> hyper_: grub,
[11:29] <Olipro> ZykoticK9: grub chainloads the windows loader anyway, he thinks he can get Windows bootloader to boot linux up
[11:29] <bsod1> what is the best way to write a bootable iso to an usb memory on ubuntu 10.10?
[11:29] <ZykoticK9> Olipro, which is "technically" possible - just very difficult
[11:29] <Ben64> novitololo: alternatively, you can go into the filesystem and modify the shadow file
[11:30] <hyper_> What is the difference if i install ubuntu using wubi or i do a clean install after making partitions?
[11:30] <dag729> novitolo: on the choice of the OS you'll choose the one with recovery mode
[11:30] <dragonkeeper> anyone know what package i can get the library for libgtk-1.2.so.0   ?
[11:30] <dag729> ben64: nothing easier! :D
[11:30] <soreau> bsod1: dd ?
[11:30] <hyper_> Will the perfermance be affected?
[11:30] <soreau> hyper_: One uses the native file system, the other is slower
[11:30] <Ben64> hyper_: actual partitions would be better
[11:30] <novitololo> dag729: I'm launching from virtualbox, and when I choose ubuntu
[11:30] <bsod1> soreau, I find dd hard to use, can you give me a dd command to do this?
[11:30] <soreau> yes
[11:30] <novitololo> it goes all the way to the login screen
[11:31] <novitololo> I don't have anymore options
[11:31] <dag729> how can I make BURG recognize my Kubuntu install?
[11:31] <Ben64> wtf is burg
[11:31] <soreau> bsod1: dd if=/path/to/image.iso of=/dev/sdc
[11:31] <ZykoticK9> Ben64, Grub backwards - it's a fancy boot manager or something...
[11:32] <hyper_> I was thinking about uninstalling ubuntu from partitions and then installing it using wubi as that would allow me to use windows boot loader? Is it a good option, or i shouldn't do it?
[11:32] <[deXter]> Ben64: Brand New Universal Loader.. it's like GRUB
[11:32] <dag729> ben64: http://code.google.com/p/burg/wiki/Screenshots
[11:32] <Ben64> meh, i'll stick with good ol' grubby
[11:32] <soreau> bsod1: Assuming /dev/sdc is the usb stick and its not mounted
[11:32] <bsod1> soreau, thanks, will try
[11:32] <Big_bear>  i want to use ubuntu as RouterOS,there are 500 PCs in our lan,is it probable?thanks
[11:32] <ZykoticK9> hyper_, i think Wubi still uses Grub
[11:32] <[deXter]> And I'll stick with my grub4dos :)
[11:32] <dag729> ben64: it just sits on top of ye olde grub
[11:32] <soreau> hyper_: You are giving yourself a headache and border line trolling now
[11:32] <Ben64> hyper_: just use grub! you see the bootloader for all of 10 seconds maybe, you're making it hard for yourself
[11:33] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, that's possible yes.
[11:33] <Polah> Hyper_: GRUB supports booting into Windows. Install Windows, then install Ubuntu and it should work
[11:33] <hyper_> Ohk for now on i will stick to grub only
[11:33] <hyper_> :)
[11:33] <pr3nt1c3> this is weird
[11:33] <pr3nt1c3> I just set-up a new PC
[11:33] <hutch> I agree what is the point exactly. The bootloader is a mute point
[11:33] <[deXter]> hyper_: If you want to use the Windows bootloader you can - no need for wubi
[11:33] <s3r3n1t7> pr3nt1c3, stick to a single line if you don't mind please.
[11:33] <novitololo> how do I make to show me the grub on the start?
[11:33] <hyper_> @Dexter how can I??
[11:33] <novitololo> it's a virtual box
[11:34] <Ben64> [deXter]: don't encourage him
[11:34] <novitololo> and it doesn't show me the grub, so I don't know how to go to recovery
[11:34] <hyper_> [deXter] How can I?
[11:34] <[deXter]> Ben64: Knowledge is for sharing; best way one learns is by making mistakes. So let him make mistakes ;)
[11:34] <CHN> hi
[11:34] <CHN> hello
[11:34] <ZykoticK9> novitololo, hold down SHIFT to get Grub2 menu
[11:34] <pr3nt1c3> I'm having trouble getting a W7 and a ubu10.10 box to network via a 4-port D-Link router
[11:34] <dag729> novitolo: as I told you before, it doesn't matter that is a VM: just press shift while bootin
[11:34] <Ben64> [deXter]: i don't think telling him something that has a good chance of breaking bootup is helpful
[11:34] <[deXter]> hyper_: If you're on Vista or Win 7, get a program called EasyBCD, it has an option to add Linux as a boot option
[11:35] <CHN> JOIN #ubuntu-cn
[11:35] <pr3nt1c3> I've tried to network them directly via cat5, but this is lesss useful
[11:35] <dr0id> what is this .directory file meant for ? gets created auto ?
[11:35] <hyper_> Ohk thanks dexter and I will stick for Grub for now :)
[11:35] <hyper_> Thanks for your help
[11:36] <hyper_> I have one more major problem though
[11:36] <soreau> pr3nt1c3: When you plug them into the router, can you ping one from the other?
[11:36] <hyper_> I cannot connect to windows Ad-hoc network, after enabling internet sharing on other pc
[11:36] <pr3nt1c3> it was working on friday... but now the w7 can't see me at all, and I can't login to it
[11:36] <pr3nt1c3> yes
[11:36]  * pr3nt1c3 has a sore head
[11:36] <soreau> pr3nt1c3: Sounds like your problems arent with ubuntu then
[11:37] <hyper_> Can anyone tell me how to connect to a windows ad-hoc network so that i can access internet shared from other PC
[11:37] <pr0ton> windows is sharing the net connection?
[11:37] <pr0ton> or ubuntu?
[11:37] <pr0ton> hyper_
[11:38] <hyper_> Yes
[11:38] <dag729> ahahaha
[11:38] <novitololo> shift
[11:38] <novitololo> ok.

[11:38] <pr0ton> hyper_, thats a windows issue then... ubuntu makes it really trivial to share internet connections
[11:38] <pr0ton> you have to edit settings in Network Manager and then enable "Shared"
[11:38] <pr0ton> i dont know how you'd do it on windows
[11:38] <pr0ton> not used it in years now :)
[11:38] <hyper_> i just create a network
[11:39] <hyper_> and an option is there to enable ICS
[11:39] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7：i disconnected, what kind of hardware do i need, if i have 500 PCs?
[11:39] <pr0ton> hyper_, i think you'll probably find some software that would do it
[11:39] <hyper_> other pcs can use internet
[11:39] <hyper_> No I dont want to share internet from ubuntu
[11:39] <pr0ton> hyper_, oh, so some static IP addres issue?
[11:39] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, welcome back. I'm not entirely sure about the HW requirements, but the NIC's would be the bottleneck. They would have to be able to keep up with the transfer rate.
[11:39] <pr0ton> hyper_, so it's on a LAN?
[11:39] <pr0ton> or a WLAN?
[11:40] <hyper_> i want to connect to an adhoc network created by windows
[11:40] <hyper_> From ubuntu
[11:40] <Ben64> hylinux: buy a router :S
[11:40] <Ben64> hyper_: *
[11:40] <hyper_> To access ICS that is enabled in windows machine\
[11:40] <s3r3n1t7> hyper_, a wireless adhoc network or a wired one?
[11:40] <hyper_> Wireless
[11:40] <hyper_> Adhoc
[11:41] <s3r3n1t7> hyper_, you will have to setup a static IP in order to maintain a connection, windows adhoc doesn't give out a DHCP lease. Check the static ip on the windows wlan interface for the proper subnet
[11:41] <hyper_> No
[11:41] <gnugr> hyper_: check this: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/w/index.php5?title=FixBootOfLinuxOption
[11:41] <bittyx-laptop> hi! i'd like to use ubuntu fonts in windows, but googling for the keywords just gives me a heap of pages about doing the opposite (using windows fonts in ubuntu). does anyone know where i could download the ubuntu font files so i could just copy them to my win fonts folder?
[11:41] <hyper_> If i turn on internet sharing while creating wireless adhoc in windows, any machine that is connected to it
[11:41] <hyper_> gets a static IP
[11:41] <hyper_> and a gateway
[11:42] <Angelus> http://www.naked-lindsey.com/?uid=334954
[11:42] <Angelus> http://www.naked-lindsey.com/?uid=334954
[11:42] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7: what kind of NIC do i need? the max  network traffic about 50GB/day.thanks
[11:42] <pr0ton> hyper_, do you manually set IP address on the windows machines?
[11:42] <hyper_> Nopes
[11:42] <Riddell> !op
[11:42] <hyper_> I just turn on internet connection sharing
[11:42] <bittyx-laptop> Angelus: why are you spamming :(
[11:42] <hyper_> And any clients connected to it can use it
[11:42] <Angelus> http://www.naked-lindsey.com/?uid=334954
[11:42] <dweebz> how do you set a global proxy with ubuntu remix?
[11:42] <pr0ton> hyper_, any clients using it get a dynamic IP assigned?
[11:42] <s3r3n1t7> hyper_, whereas that is true for _wired_ interfaces, a wlan interface does not give out DHCP leases. Try it with a static IP
[11:43] <pr0ton> or do you assign it manually
[11:43] <hyper_> No
[11:43] <Angelus> http://www.naked-lindsey.com/?uid=334954
[11:43] <hyper_> They get a dynamic address
[11:43] <hyper_> In the range 192.168.1....
[11:43] <pr0ton> hyper_, so even ubuntu should get it
[11:43] <sunny> i install adept manager from software center it didn't show me any where
[11:43] <Ben64> hyper_: get a router... its so much easier
[11:43] <dag729> how do I make grub recognize/probe Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu
[11:43] <pr0ton> hyper_, are u sure ubuntu detects your wireless correctly?
[11:43] <dag729> ?
[11:43] <hyper_> yes
[11:43] <hyper_> It does
[11:43] <hyper_> it can connect to hotspots
[11:44] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, it's not really about the max transfer a day, more about what the transfer rate is at the peak hour. Say that you only use 50gb/day, but use those 50gb in less then half an hour then a simple 100mbit connection isn't going to work.
[11:44] <hyper_> Just not able to connect to windows adhoc
[11:44] <pr0ton> hyper_, ok... also Ben64's suggestion is pretty good
[11:44] <pr0ton> hyper_, it costs < 30 USD in the USA
[11:44] <hyper_> I am using an opensource OS
[11:44] <Big_bear> did i disconnect again?
[11:44] <hyper_> I cant afford a rputer
[11:44] <pr0ton> hyper_, i see
[11:44] <dag729> hyper_??????
[11:45] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, not sure, i hide join/part messages. Did you see my previous comment?
[11:45] <dag729> t:D
[11:45] <pr0ton> hyper_, why not try to use something other than ICS then?
[11:45] <soreau> hyper_: What happens when you try to connect?
[11:45] <coz_>  good day al;l
[11:45] <hyper_> You know windows sucks, everytime i use a software to create windows hotspot it gives me a blue screen
[11:45] <hyper_> So only option left is to use a windows adhoc
[11:45] <hyper_> For ICS
[11:46] <hyper_> I had windows 7 on my other pc
[11:46] <pr0ton> i'd suggest you to not use windows at all
[11:46] <pr0ton> :P
[11:46] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7,i didn't see your previous comment,i think i have big lag now.
[11:46] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, it's not really about the max transfer a day, more about what the transfer rate is at the peak hour. Say that you only use 50gb/day, but use those 50gb in less then half an hour then a simple 100mbit connection isn't going to work.
[11:46] <hyper_> Then how to share internet on two ubuntu machines
[11:46] <pr0ton> anyway, since you have a couple of machines a router should be affordable no?
[11:46] <pr0ton> hyper_, it's very easy to share form ubuntu to x
[11:47] <hyper_> No, I cant the other machine is not mine, it belongs to my friend
[11:47] <pr0ton> hyper_, read this http://goo.gl/GCrT1
[11:47] <hyper_> I am encouraging him to use ubuntu
[11:47] <hyper_> He sticks to Windows
[11:47] <hyper_> and we have to share internet
[11:47] <jatt> !samba
[11:48] <pr0ton> hyper_, so what happens when u try to connect to his Windows connection?
[11:48] <hyper_> It does not connect
[11:48] <basobdutta>  sudoers file: syntax error, line 25 <<< sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 25
[11:48] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7: i got it, if i have 1gbit connection,doesit would work?
[11:48] <pr0ton> or it doesnt detect either?
[11:48] <hyper_> It detects
[11:48] <dios_mio> he means they share the connection.. not that they are sharing files with each other
[11:48] <Big_bear> does it work?
[11:48] <hyper_> But when i click nothing happens
[11:48] <userVal> i have ubuntu 10.10 have to delete them and intall ubuntu server or i can just install it the LAMPP and i will make it server?
[11:48] <hyper_> It doesnt ask for network key
[11:48] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, a 100mbit could also just work fine, as long as you don't start to do a mass download with all pc's at the same time. Ofcourse, the higher the bandwith available to the internet, the better.
[11:48] <hyper_> Nothing happens at all
[11:48] <hyper_> It just detects the network
[11:48] <pr0ton> hyper_, are you sure that, ICS can handle multiple connections?
[11:49] <hyper_> Yes
[11:49] <basobdutta> I am getting Parse error in /etc/sudoers  file as i added a statement in it
[11:49] <s3r3n1t7> pr0ton, it can
[11:49] <hyper_> I have  used 4-5 PCS on windows ICS
[11:49] <hyper_> all were windows machines though
[11:49] <s3r3n1t7> basobdutta, !pastebin the content please, you probably have a typo somewhere.
[11:49] <hyper_> It doesnt work for mobile devices though
[11:49] <pr0ton> you;re using WEP or WPA?
[11:49] <hyper_> WPA
[11:49] <pr0ton> try switching to WEP and see
[11:49] <hyper_> I tried
[11:50] <hyper_> Doesnt work in WEP
[11:50] <hyper_> too
[11:50] <pr0ton> hyper_, if it doesnt work for mobile devices, then MS is doing some proprietary bullshit
[11:50] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7: ubuntu,freebsd,etc,which one should i use?thanks
[11:50] <soreau> ! language | pr0ton
[11:50] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, any will work, it's all personal preference. Since you're in an #ubuntu channel, you might as well use that.
[11:51] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7: ok,i'll use ubuntu as my server,thank you very much
[11:51] <hyper_> Is there any way to do it
[11:51] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, what you have to do is install a dhcp server which will give out the dhcp leases to the 500 pc's,  then add ICS rules to your IPtables.
[11:51] <lyte_> is there a way with apt or dpkg to search for packages based on what files they deploy to the file system (e.g. yum provides /some/file)?
[11:51] <pr0ton> hyper_, i think it's more of a windows issue
[11:51] <root> Hi
[11:51] <pr0ton> since it only works with windows -_-
[11:51] <s3r3n1t7> lyte_, apt-file
[11:51] <Guest1478> how are u mates?
 The link you gave me is very complex, isnt there an easy way to share internet in ubuntu through wifi as in that case i will make my friend use ubuntu too
[11:52] <lyte_> s3r3n1t7: works a treat, thanks.
[11:52] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t7: i want to use it as softeware router
[11:52] <basobdutta> s3r3n1t7: Please see the url http://dpaste.de/2J94/
[11:52] <hyper_> Or is there a software to create hotspots in ubuntu <pr0ton>
[11:53] <s3r3n1t7> basobdutta, please pastebin the sudo'ers file.
[11:53] <s3r3n1t7> lyte_, you're welcome
[11:53] <s3r3n1t7> Big_bear, i understand. My previous comment would achieve exactly that.
[11:53] <soreau> hyper_: hostapd
[11:53] <hyper_> Hotspot
[11:53] <basobdutta> s3r3n1t7: /etc/sudoers file is not accessible
[11:53] <hyper_> how to use it and install it?
[11:54] <soreau> !info hostapd | hyper_
[11:54] <Big_bear> s3r3n1t: i got it,then i have to install a dhcp server?right?
[11:54] <hyper_> sudo apt-get install hotspad?
[11:54] <s3r3n1t7> basobdutta, sudo visudo       then select, copy and paste.
[11:54] <hyper_> this command will install it ?
[11:54] <soreau> hyper_: Youll probably want to install and configure a dhcp server too
[11:54] <hyper_> Or is there any other process to do it
[11:54] <hyper_> What is a dhcp server
[11:54] <hyper_> ?
[11:54] <hyper_> I dont know

[12:09] <dag729> s3r3n1t7: yes, but instead of being rude saying "there's plenty of guide and tutorials and how-to explaining that, and you're flooding the chat with the same question" I made a joke
[12:09] <dag729> hyper_: I'm sorry for being rude with you
[12:09] <s3r3n1t7> dag729, and instead of all this you could have remained silent, avoiding all of this.
[12:09] <iceroot> hyper_: then ask specific questions after reading the link from ubottu
[12:09] <dag729> hyper_: really, sorry
[12:09] <basobdutta> s3r3n1t7:sudoers file: syntax error, line 25 <<< sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 25
 its ok
 Happens with newbeis
[12:10] <hyper_> :D
[12:10] <hyper_> Like ,e
[12:10] <hyper_> me
[12:10] <s3r3n1t7> basobdutta, make a pastebin from the terminal, including the command and the error.
[12:10] <Moopz> Anyone have any experience using rdesktop to connect to a Win7 machine? I can connect easily from my Win7 partition, but rdesktop just gives me: recv: Connection reset by peer
[12:10] <bullgard4> !rdesktop | Moopz
[12:11] <sl33k_> s3r3n1t7: does terminal show more than limited lines after a command? some lines gets truncated if the output is bigger. how to see all?
 Will this process work with a CDMA EVDO modem too
[12:12] <s3r3n1t7> sl33k_, i'm not following. I want to see the command he has used in order to produce the error. It doesn't matter if it got truncated.
[12:12] <basobdutta> s3r3n1t7:http://dpaste.de/2J94/
[12:13] <s3r3n1t7> basobdutta, you will have to boot into recovery mode, then edit the sudoers file by removing the last line (the one with postgresql). You cannot do this from your running system as sudo cannot be used. Do not use nano or any other default text editor to edit the sudoers file, use visudo for this.
[12:13] <niko> >!)
[12:13] <coz_> http://dpaste.de/2J94/
[12:14] <Moopz> bullgard4, nothing happened...
[12:14] <s3r3n1t7> sl33k_, this is what i was afraid of. He saved the sudoers file with an error and is now unable to use the sudo command at all.
[12:16] <Airris> Well then, this is a new one for me. CD/DVD drive has stopped working. Attempts to mount it manually fail. I searched around a bit and lots of people have posted problems but there's hardly ever a solution in the forum posts.
[12:17] <dag729> basobdutta: probably you can boot with a livecd, and from there make the proper changes to the sudoers file
[12:17] <lolmatic> i be back from massively pimpin dem hoes' asses and titties plus i smoked a blunt of finest haze
[12:17] <dag729> basobdutta: next time would be better to use "sudo visudo" to avoid this kind of problems
[12:17] <s3r3n1t7> dag729, why boot a recovery CD? That would only introduce extra steps with the possibility of complications. The recovery option is there for exactly this reason.
[12:18] <dag729> s3r3n1t7: true
[12:18] <Airris> The drive itself has only been in use for a few months so I think hardware failure is unlikely, and it shows up as physically existing in lshw.
[12:18] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, does dmesg reveal anything when attempting to mount?
[12:19] <Zeeshan4u> How to shift from ubuntu 10.10 to Ubuntu 11.04?
[12:19] <newbie01> how do I login username and password on freenode?
[12:19] <s3r3n1t7> !register | newbie01
[12:19] <jrib> !natty | Zeeshan4u
[12:19] <jrib> lolmatic: that's not appropriate here, please stick to ubuntu support discussion only
[12:19] <newbie01> i have register already
[12:20] <newbie01> I want to login now
[12:20] <Airris> s3r3n1t7, it doesn't look like it. The most recent stuff just looks like boot-up stuff
[12:20] <jrib> newbie01: the link tells you how to do that (/msg nickserv identify NICKNAME PASSWORD)
[12:20] <lolmatic> can anyone tell me while every now and then the mouse focus gets attached to a specific window element and i cant click anything else than the locked element?
[12:21] <newbie01> tks
[12:21] <lolmatic> and can anyone tell me how to get old games running which use /dev/dsp for sound?
[12:21] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, i'm sure mount has some good options for extra verbose. Did you try those?
[12:21] <coz_> lolmatic,  I have not experienced this one
[12:21] <Airris> hang on i'll look into that.
[12:22] <YasonBarDavid> how do i record a stream i am playing in totem?
[12:22] <YasonBarDavid> is there some totem plugin to add a record button?
[12:22] <Airris> huh. ok this is odd. it reads dvds correctly.
[12:23] <Moopz> Anyone have any experience using rdesktop to connect to a Win7 machine? I can connect easily from my Win7 partition, but rdesktop just gives me: recv: Connection reset by peer
[12:23] <Airris> (i had just switched to a disk i knew was valid. Ok, lets find a CD that follows the same thing and see if it's just CD's not mounting)
[12:23] <soreau> lolmatic: For enemy territory, I have to tell it to use /dev/adsp in the settings
[12:24] <bodai> hi there.would like to install libncurses5-dev but it has conflicts with libncurses4-dev.searched in synaptic,but there is not libncurses4-dev.use maverick.what can I do?thank you very much!
[12:24] <heyguise> so...is there a terminal command that gets a passed out roomate to get off your pack of cigarettes?
[12:24] <Moopz> sudo buy your own cigarettes
[12:24] <Airris> heyguise, sudo chair. I recommend the -face parameter
[12:25] <Debolaz> Are there any good MSN clients available for Ubuntu with webcam support? I would prefer to not use aMSN.
[12:25] <lolmatic> soreau: how do you do that?
[12:25] <YasonBarDavid> is there some totem plugin to add a record button?
[12:25] <tuxx-> cat /dev/waterbin > /home/roommate
[12:25] <soreau> bodai: Can you pastebin the output of sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev ?
[12:25] <bodai> try emesene
[12:25] <soreau> lolmatic: How to do what?
[12:25] <heyguise> Airris, lol. Ill try that :P
[12:25] <quiescens> lolmatic: usually you want to use something like padsp to start things if they expect exclusive access to dsp
[12:25] <lolmatic> i am also looking for a nice cloud tool which can sync to google docs. found only commercial feature limited crap.
[12:26] <lolmatic> quiescens: i tried that with jagged alliance 2, i hear game sound for 2 seconds then it crashes
[12:26] <bodai> libncurses5-dev conflicts with libncurses-dev
[12:26] <bodai>   libncurses4-dev provides libncurses-dev and is present and installed.
[12:26] <coz_> Debolaz,  http://initdotd.blogspot.com/2007/09/msn-clients-for-linux-part-1.html  and  http://initdotd.blogspot.com/2007/09/msn-clients-for-linux-part-2.html
[12:27] <soreau> bodai: Uninstall them all and try again
[12:28] <forces> is it true? natty wont have RC version?
[12:28] <bodai> there is no libncurses4-dev in synaptic
[12:28] <iceroot> forces: #ubuntu+1
[12:28] <bodai> so can uninstall nothing
[12:28] <Moopz> Anyone have any experience using rdesktop to connect to a Win7 machine? I can connect easily from my Win7 partition, but rdesktop just gives me: recv: Connection reset by peer
[12:28] <Debolaz> coz_: Webcam being the important thing.
[12:28] <coz_> Debolaz,  that one I probably cant help with  sorry
[12:29] <bodai> emesen can use webcam but without voice :s
[12:29] <root> HI
[12:29] <bodai> hi
[12:29] <Airris> ok. yep s3r3n1t7 : It's CD's specifically it looks like.  and verbose isn't being very helpful. Except... hang on. Ok since i didn't specify filesystem it tries all availible ones
[12:29] <Guest63671> hi magentar
[12:30] <Guest63671> I am new to ubuntu
[12:30] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, could you try to specify the file system? It should show something in dmesg then.
[12:30] <Airris> and then fails. cat /proc/filesystems has me note that anything that could read a CD format is possibly absent?
[12:30] <Airris> wait
[12:30]  * Airris tries one more thing
[12:30] <gnugr> !xrdp
[12:31] <Guest63671> quit
[12:32] <Laurenceb_> is there a way to scan usb devices connected to my machine?
[12:32] <s3r3n1t7> Laurenceb_, lsusb
[12:32] <Airris> s3r3n1t7, any idea which file system i should try to be mounting it with? google says iso9960 but that's not in the list, and it doesn't work if i try to specify that
[12:32] <Migi32> what's the quickest / cleanest way to set a one-time alarm in Ubuntu? (don't want to install any software)
[12:33] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, hmm odd ... it might be as it suggests, that it's actually missing the specification to read CD's
[12:33] <Airris> that'd certainly explain it
[12:33] <Airris> udf is there, which would answer why it can still read DVD's
[12:33] <soreau> Migi32: one time alarm?
[12:34] <grof002ax> "pinta (0.6-1) [universe] a simple Gtk+ drawing/painting program"
[12:34] <Migi32> soreau, a reminder. Playing a sound, system beep, whatever
[12:34] <Airris> Ok! so we have to reinstall that file system specification? Uh... how do i even do that X_X
[12:34] <soreau> Migi32: I guess you could use cron to play something at a given time
[12:35] <xskydevilx> How do I install the new Gnome 3 in Maverick?
[12:35] <jrib> Migi32: for one time, use "at" or just "sleep SOME_TIME; some_command_producing_sound_here"
[12:35] <bullgard4> xskydevilx: Please ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:35] <Migi32> jrib, what command can I use to make a sound?
[12:35] <bullgard4> xskydevilx: Excuse me. I made a mistake. Sorry.
[12:36] <Migi32> "beep" doesn't seem to do anything
[12:36] <jrib> Migi32: mplayer my_favorite_song.mp3
[12:36] <Migi32> jrib, ok thanks I'll try it out
[12:36] <soreau> Migi32: aplay /path/to/some/audio/file.ext
[12:36] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, i was searching around and found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/13867
[12:37] <sl33k_> What is difference between these paths /a/b and ~/a/b ?
[12:37] <s3r3n1t7> sl33k_, ~/ extends to the user's home folder, /a is relatilve to the file system root
[12:37] <soreau> sl33k_: One is /a/b the other is $HOME/a/b
[12:37] <xskydevilx> bullgard: It's OK. Do you know how to install it?
[12:37] <Airris> s3r3n1t7 : huh. ok I'll check that
[12:37] <grof002ax> Hi, just wondering why is there Pinta in Naty still at version 0.6, but in upstream repository it is 0.8? Version 0.7 and 0.8 are only bug fix releases. It should be added into Naty why aren't they?
[12:38] <s3r3n1t7> grof002ax, version freeze probably. Also natty in #ubuntu+1
[12:38] <soreau> ! latest | grof002ax
[12:40] <grof002ax> Pinta 0.6 is very unstable and I think it should be updated with fixes (upgrade to 0.8). I know I can add a PPA, but many of end users don't know how to do this. I see in Launchpad bug tracker, there are a lot of bug reports from Naty
[12:40] <jrib> grof002ax: so file a bug
[12:41] <grof002ax> @jrib, where should I file a bug?
[12:41] <soreau> ! bug
[12:41] <milamber> Migi32: bug 144022
[12:41] <bullgard4> xskydevilx: It is available from a PPA in Launchpad. But I cannot recommend installing it. --  If you are an enterprising guy system-upgrade to Natty. Natty will offer a regular DEB program package. But this is not stale yet.
[12:42] <bullgard4> s/stale/atable/
[12:42] <soreau> heh
[12:42] <grof002ax> @ubottu, I don't user Naty, I just see people reporting bugs on upstream from Ubuntu Naty which uses old 0.6 release.
[12:42] <grof002ax> I don't use...
[12:42] <YasonBarDavid> can someone help me find a media player that has a save/record opion and alsu using gstreamer
[12:43] <jrib> grof002ax: you might want to ask #ubuntu-bugs if there's specific procedure/formatting you should follow when requesting a package update.  Also, natty is likely frozen already (not sure)
[12:43] <Migi32> milamber, I do remember disabling the system beep a long time ago, I think
[12:43] <YasonBarDavid> i can play the files fine in totem but no way to save them
[12:43] <xskydevilx> bullgard4: Thanks for the info. And do you perhaps know if it is possible to upgrade from Maverick to Natty using the live CD?
[12:43] <grof002ax> @jrib, thanks I will join #ubuntu-bugs for details.
[12:45] <Migi32> milamber, it used to be an option inside System > Preferences > Sound. Why is it gone now?
[12:45] <bullgard4> xskydevilx: Using a Natty Live CD it is possible to upgrade from Maverick to Natty. First do a backup of you /home directory at least.
[12:45] <shekeher> how to install a tar.bz2 file?
[12:45] <shekeher> plz help

[12:45] <bullgard4> s/you/your/
[12:45] <milamber> Migi32: the fix seemed to be modprobe pcspkr
[12:45] <Airris> anyone know the command to add in my /etc/modules file to load it? The bug report says that works sometimes
[12:45] <nbubuntu> hi using 10.10 , anyone know how to connect nokia 3g phone via bluetooth going online ?
[12:45] <YasonBarDavid> can someone help me find a media player using gstreamer that has a save/record option
[12:45] <nbubuntu> thank you
[12:46] <milamber> shekeher: for the most part it is tar -xvf <filename<
*
[12:46] <xskydevilx> bullgard4: Thanks for the help, once again. I'll try that later today.
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> i dont think tar needs the -xvf  just xvf  should work
[12:47] <nbubuntu> anyone ? thanks ?
 xvf command not founf
[12:47] <shekeher> found
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> 'tar xvf filename'
[12:47] <Kimmen> shekeher: tar jxvf filename
[12:47] <milamber> shekeher: tar is part of the command
[12:47] <shekeher> ok
[12:47] <Airris> hmm, be back in a sec. lets see if this works
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> !info unp
[12:48] <Laurenceb_> is there a way to dump config descriptors with lsusb?
[12:48] <Laurenceb_> ie the entire string
[12:48] <Noble> My computer hibernated with my headphones in, and now I got no sound. Suggestions?
[12:48] <sebmck> Is there any update on the progress of Mubi?
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> whats Mubi?
[12:49] <stimpie> Noble: you could try: amixer sset 'Headphone',0 off
[12:49] <sebmck> Wubi for the Mac.
[12:49] <shekeher> http://paste.ubuntu.com/592583/
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> thats even scarier then wubi on the pc.
[12:49] <shekeher> what after this
[12:49] <shekeher> ?
[12:49] <sipior> Dr_Willis: agree strongly :-)
[12:49] <sebmck> Dr_Willis: How so?

[12:50] <sebmck> How does Wubi for the Mac sound scary?
[12:50] <stimpie> anyone knows how to goto the window demanding attention ?
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> sebmck:  wto be honest.. wubi is often seen as a 'disaster' by most people who frequent this channel.
[12:50] <bullgard4> Noble: Analyze your /var/log/pm-powersave.log
  http://paste.ubuntu.com/592583/
[12:50] <sebmck> Oh I see.
[12:50] <shekeher> what after this
[12:50] <shekeher> ?
[12:50] <milamber> !compile | shekeher
[12:51] <milamber> !patience | shekeher
[12:51] <YasonBarDavid> what about me
[12:51] <raba> hi,all! anyone know Ubuntu 10.10 would be work on laptop "lenovo B560" Intel and GeForce inside

[12:52] <bullgard4> stimpie: Position the cursor onto this window.
[12:52] <shekeher> i downloaded firefox and they gave me this file
[12:52] <Noble> Well, seems that aplay plays souds fine, but totem and vlc does not squeek
[12:52] <shekeher> how do i install it
[12:52] <shekeher> ?
[12:52] <Airris> well that didn't work.
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> shekeher:  you are doing it the hard way
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> !firefox
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> !firefox4
[12:52] <shekeher> then what is the easy way
[12:52] <Airris> s3r3n1t7 : I'm thinking this is a different bug. The fix mentioned in that report you found did nothing :(
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> shekeher:  enable the proper reposuitory and sudo apt-get update and sudp apt-get upgrade
[12:53] <milamber> YasonBarDavid: why the dependency on gstreamer?
[12:53] <jessicaBR> er... can't find glade 3.10 in my synaptic, and can't find the according PPA, could someone help me?
[12:53] <Airris> wait, brb again. one more thing to try
[12:54] <s3r3n1t7> Airris, hmm :-( then i'm afraid i don't know what would solve it ... perhaps a reboot?
[12:55] <bullgard4> jessicaBR: The package 'glade' is offered by Ubuntu Maverick Synaptic for installation.

[12:56] <Dr_Willis> theres ppa search tools out there. other then ppa, compile from source.
[12:58] <bullgard4> jessicaBR: Even Natty does not offer it. --  So unless you are very enterprising, you better wait and see until Ubuntu will offer it as a regular package.
[12:58] <bencc> how can I download a package files instead of installing it?
[12:59] <bencc> I'm trying "apt-get source erlang-mode" but it downloads erlang instead of erlang-mode
[12:59] <cdbs> bencc: nope, I'll tell, just a sec
[12:59] <susundberg>  --download-only
[12:59] <shekeher> how to install adobe flash player for firefox?
[12:59] <susundberg> ?
[12:59] <Pici> bencc: erlang-mode's source package is erlang.
[12:59] <cdbs> bencc: yeah, use the --download-only tag
[12:59] <Airris> Ok that's a no too. So when we last left off. The iso9960 file system is not loading, preventing CD's from being read.
[13:01] <bencc> cdbs: trying
[13:01] <jessicaBR> bullgard4, ok, tahnks. It looks like I'm gonna have to build it :)
[13:01] <rizanoar> why is ubuntu won't play VCD (i'm using VLC & Movie player)
[13:01] <bencc> Pici: ok, so I misunderstand the source command
[13:02] <YasonBarDavid> milamber, because other softwares do not play ram files only gstreamer
[13:02] <Pici> bencc: the source command is for downloading the package's source.  Use cdbs's command to download the actual binary package.
[13:02] <raba> tell me about friendship vs "lenovo B560"  && ubuntu 10.10 ?
[13:03] <mikael_> Yo!

[13:15] <bodai> yes,it is a 10.10
[13:16] <laptop_user> bodai, are you asking me?
[13:16] <susundberg> laptop_user: what do you mean with 'cannot get past splash screen' ?
[13:16] <laptop_user> at boot, it loads to splash screen, but then hangs
[13:17] <laptop_user> recovery says there are no broken packages
[13:18] <gnewb> laptop_user: Is it an Nvidia?
[13:19] <laptop_user> gnewb, yes.. but have not had any problems until now
[13:20] <gnewb> laptop_user: The forums have alot of data on that, and other Binary drivers, still looking...
[13:20] <rizanoar> try to re-install the driver..

[13:22] <bodai> libncurses5-dev conflicts with libncurses-dev
[13:22] <bodai>   libncurses4-dev provides libncurses-dev and is present and installed
[13:24] <vivid> bodai, where did you get those old packages? they arent even in the repos for lucid...
[13:24] <vivid> purge them
[13:25] <bodai> the problem is when I try to uninstall them it says that try to install libncurses5-dev
[13:25] <vivid> purge them, then reinstall what you need
[13:26] <vivid> sudo apt-get purge libncurses-dev && sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[13:26] <bodai> how may I do it?
[13:26] <bodai> thank you
[13:26] <bodai> so much

[13:28] <clean> which tool do you use to copy big file or directory? cp ?
