[13:57] <InHisName> I'm trying to use find to find files that are created in last m days from today.  I get error that -exec is incomplete.....
[13:58] <InHisName> sudo find . -name "*.jpg" -mtime -2 -exec ls -l \{\}\;   <-- so what is wrong ?
[13:59] <waltman> instead of the -exec, try this: ... -mtime 2 | xargs ls -l
[14:13] <InHisName> the xargs produce full list of directory.  If I leve it off, only see two files.
[14:14] <InHisName> Never mind.  got it to work.
[14:25] <InHisName> Grrrr, I keep taking screen shots, but I cannot find the file of the shot.   [Ctrl-PrtScr]   I hear a camera click.
[14:25] <waltman> yeah, the mtime thing seems to throw off find.

[02:05] <cc11rocks> True/false : Ubuntu 12.10 will include GRUB 2.00? If so, when will it be updated (Beta 1, etc)?
[02:05] <cc11rocks> Or will Ubuntu ditch GRUB completely due to EFI issues?
[02:11] <TJ-> We already use GRUB2 cc ... in 12.04
[02:12] <cc11rocks> TJ- Distrowatch says it's stuck in 1.99... (which is Grub 2, I'm talking about Grub 2.00)
[02:12] <TJ-> Well there's not much difference!
[02:12] <cc11rocks> http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntu
[02:13] <cc11rocks> Grub 1.99 release date May 2011...Grub 2.00 release date June 2012...I hope there is a different
[02:13] <cc11rocks> *difference
[03:37] <burner> is it just me or is the screen management (resolutions and placement) somewhat limited... i can't figure out how to swap left and right...  used to use nvidia-settings but I see that nvidia-current won't install so I assume I'm on nouveau
[03:38] <jbicha> burner: you can drag one monitor in the widget to the left of the other to switch them

[03:39] <jbicha> watch the video at that link :)
[03:40] <burner> i don't have that dialog to change the display anymore in quantal
[03:40] <burner> i used to have that in precise

[03:46] <burner> what from term?
[03:50] <TJ-> burner: I *think* you can start it using "gnome-control-panel -display"
[03:53] <burner> hrm... well i use xfce :\
[03:53] <burner> i'm having a tough time finding it... oh well :\
[04:03] <jbicha> gnome-control-center display
[04:03] <jbicha> but Xubuntu might use something different (if you don't specify we assume you are using Unity)

[12:27] <MrChrisDruif> No, I want to install cm9
[12:27] <MrChrisDruif> Transdroid and torrentfu I never heard about?
[12:27] <histo> MrChrisDruif: does that device have NFC?
[12:27] <MrChrisDruif> histo; I think not, it's the oldest Samsung Galaxy S (model i9000)
[12:29] <MrChrisDruif> Maybe worth mentioning: after 1d 7h 27m 18s I still have about 15% battery left. I didn't get that mileage with the stock rom!
[12:30] <MrChrisDruif> And it's speedy again.

[17:16] <jfi> johnjohn101, I don't know for vmware, but at least the graphical issue with virtualbox has been fixed recently

[17:21] <opensshd> having an issue in quantal after upgrade
[17:22] <opensshd> mounting ntfs partitions are incrementing the mnt point... ie: /media/myuser/data1, data2, data3 on successive mounts.
[17:22] <wilee-nilee> opensshd, you added the NTFS to fstab?
[17:23] <opensshd> no
[17:23] <wilee-nilee> no ah you are mounting from the terminal?
[17:24] <opensshd> no, mounting it through nautilus - never had an issue with it before upgrade from 12.04
[17:27] <opensshd> how do i configure fstab, not seeing a conf

[17:29] <opensshd> ah just edit fstab...
[17:30] <opensshd> there are three lines in here - look spec. do i need to add something to stop nautilus from incrementing the mount point everytime i mount ntfs partitions?

[17:41] <opensshd> google talk?
[18:55] <johnjohn101> sorry to report that 12.10 does not run on vmware player as of the daily build i downloaded today..  just informational.
[19:23] <ironhalik> Hmm, I got confused - with nautilus reverted - what are the changes in 12.10? :>
[19:24] <Debolaz> johnjohn101: Its a known issue.
[19:25] <Debolaz> johnjohn101: Everything graphics seems to be screwy at the moment.

[20:19] <genii-around> Has bug 1019079 been fixed yet for nvidia-current 304.32 ?
[20:22] <trism> genii-around: yeah it already had the rebuild, we are currently stuck with bug 1037896 (though the workaround in comment #13 is working nicely for the moment)
[20:24] <yofel> genii-around: from what I see the ABI mismatch is still there, nvidia wants ABI 11 or 12, X provides ABI 13
[20:25] <trism> yofel: it was removed on purpose because of the bug I linked above, not the same bug
[20:25] <yofel> aah
[20:28] <genii-around> OK, thanks!
[20:38] <ironhalik> I liked nautilus 3.5 :/

[21:04] <zavi> No
[21:04] <hal_> ah. it will help. looks like a flash drive. plug in and it'll work great

[21:04] <zavi> I'll have a go
[21:04] <zavi> Thanx
[21:05] <kbrooks> hal_, hmm, ok, but i thought it was supposed to work right away.

[21:09] <Plant> Seeing that there are problems with 9.10....what happens when 9.04 support ends in October 2010?
[21:09] <dabaR> Plant: Nothing at all.
[21:09] <zleap> Plant, by which time 10.04 will be out which is LTS
[21:10] <Plant> Are there plans to extend support for 9.04 or is the assumption that people will just move to 10.04.?
[21:11] <hal_> kbrooks: do you have the antenna already? Not clear on your question.
[21:11] <dabaR> Plant: there is no official statement saying, "Sorry about 9.10..."
[21:11] <dabaR> Plant: or is there something I missed?
[21:12] <kbrooks> hal_, No, but it browses fine so I don't understand why it can't send or receive without that. Can you explain?
[21:12] <Plant> dabaR, ok, because I've been looking for an official statement myself.
[21:12] <jhb1608> ok question, how do I put the USB drivers for my webcam so it will work? I don't want to put the linux webcam, I want to put windows usb drivers so it will function.
[21:12] <blakkheim> jhb1608: the windows drivers won't work
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:  good luck gettting windows drivers to work with a webcam under linux.
[21:13] <jhb1608> Well. Then why not flash webcam won't accept my webcam?
[21:13] <jhb1608> I kept trying
[21:13] <hal_> kbrooks: the only way i know it'll work is with the adapter. Sorry
[21:13] <tanath> something is eating all my hard drive space. i've lost over 10gb over the past two days
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:  flash not workign witht eh webcam is different from the cam not working at all.. does it work with the CHEESE program?
[21:13] <blakkheim> tanath: check /var/log
[21:13] <jhb1608> which adapter?
[21:13] <jhb1608> yes, Dr_Willis
[21:13] <jhb1608> but not flash
[21:14] <dabaR> Plant: there is none likely to appear.
[21:14] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:  thats basically a flash issue from what i hear.
[21:14] <jhb1608> if doen inb flash it shows up with scanlines
[21:14] <jhb1608> done in*
[21:14] <dabaR> Plant: if you do not like 9.10, you just have to skip it, and hope for the best for the next one
[21:14] <dabaR> Plant: in other words, the assumption that people will just move to 10.04.
[21:15] <jhb1608> I liked 9.04, but it won't let me keep 9.04 anyways
[21:15] <dabaR> Plant: except most will just like 9.10
[21:15] <jhb1608> so I'm stuck with 9.10
[21:15] <dabaR> jhb1608: not very likely.
[21:15] <jhb1608> well
[21:15] <jhb1608> 9.10 is unstable anyways
[21:15] <tanath> blakkheim, disk usage analyzer says there's nearly 16Gb in there. >.<
[21:15] <Dr_Willis> ive had no stablilty issues witn 9.10
[21:15] <jhb1608> even though they released and stated it is
[21:15] <jhb1608> I do have unstable and hated the design
[21:16] <blakkheim> tanath: well then there you go
[21:16] <jhb1608> unstability*
[21:16] <Dr_Willis> Releases befor LTS tend to have all teh cutting edge changes in them.. to help get things fixed up for the LTS. thats just how things work
[21:16] <Plant> dabaR: Ok, that's fine. It's just that it make things a little complicated when supporting users from over a thousand miles away...and a bad upgrade would screw up the system. But, thanks.
[21:16] <marcham89> hmm.. I switched to Ubuntu 9.10 b/c I found it so stable
[21:16] <Dr_Willis> marcham89:  yep. same here.
[21:16] <jhb1608> I liked 9.04 because of no login thingy
[21:16] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:  no login thingy?
[21:16] <jhb1608> but now 9.10, it is unalterable
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:   You can set GDM to auto liogin in 9.10
[21:17] <jhb1608> I can't alter the login dialog
[21:17] <jhb1608> I meant login appearance
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> jhb1608:   so gdm is not as themeable.. Woop-da-doo...
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> You can install the old gdm if you wanted.
[21:18] <jhb1608> it is why I prefered 9.04
[21:18] <jhb1608> over the 9.10
[21:18] <Dr_Willis> yea. gdm themes.. good reason. :)

[21:25] <soreau> As regular user do: gpasswd -a $USER wheel
[21:25] <Jamed> edbian: Dynamic DNS (http://www.dyndns.org for example) can help you with the changing ip's, but also note that other mailservers wont accept your maisl unless you have validated your host with a commonly accepted certificate like Verisign, Thawte etc. Since this is offtopic and i never set up a mail server, I can't give you any more help
[21:25] <soreau> Code1: then relogin
[21:25] <BLOODCLAW> riverbird: Mobile Intel 945GSE Express
[21:25] <BLOODCLAW> riverbird: is that what you're after?
[21:26] <rip> I can't seem to get suspend (to RAM) working using 'pm-suspend' with the following hardware:  ASUS A7N8X Deluxe motherboard, nforce2 chipset, ATI Radeon 9700 Pro.  My problem is always the same: suspend puts the comp. into the usual low-power state, but then resume just brings up a blank screen...
[21:26] <jtaji> Code1: not sure just adding wheel group will help... wheel group is the old standard linux group for sudo... Ubuntu uses admin
[21:26] <edbian> Jamed, Thanks for that!
[21:27] <araxhiel> anyone knows how can I delete the 'default' search plugins on firefox and avoid get them when Firefox is updated via Synaptic?
[21:27] <BLOODCLAW> anyone know how to get the wireless internet working on my msi u100 running netbook remix?
[21:27] <riverbird> BLOODCLAW, looks like it.  if this is a new install, you probably need to set the driver for it
[21:28] <BLOODCLAW> riverbird: k
[21:28] <Rafael> hey i cant use my nokia cs-10 with ubuntu 9.10 apparently is a fixed bug and there is a patch for it, but i cant figure how to apply it ('im new to ubuntu by the way).

[21:29] <mka> my clock is does not display correct time in the panel. I set the timezone to accordingly but time is incorrect
[21:29] <mister_roboto> Hilikus: aptitude changelog <pkgname>    seems to be it
[21:29] <hal_> Rafael: Burn an updated cd and reinstall
[21:29] <soreau> Rafael: Why cant you connect to the internet in ubuntu?
[21:30] <mka> my clock is does not display correct time in the panel. I set the timezone to accordingly but time is incorrect. How do I make it to synchronize with a remote time server?
[21:30] <LJR> Hey, does anyone mind answering a quick question on how Ubuntu partitions my HDD? Specifically - what is /dev/sda2? It's 6G's and and is an extended filesystem.
[21:30] <scotchandacigar_> ahh there we go
[21:30] <scotchandacigar_> much better
[21:30] <marcham89> hey LJR

[21:31] <karleeto> anyone have any suggestions? i'm aware that there are quite a few
[21:31] <LJR> karleeto: Evolution won't cut it?
[21:31] <marcham89> LJR , it is most likely swap space I assume
[21:32] <Rafael> 'soreau:, because the nokia cs-10 is the device i use for accesing internet, it works fine in windows, but ubuntu cant make it work
[21:32] <mka> LJR, what exactly is your question, you want to partition or you want to understand the meaning of sda2?
[21:32] <soreau> Kardos: OO?
[21:32] <soreau> Rafael: Is the nokia device a phone?
[21:32] <LJR> marcham89: I see swap - it's assigned to /dev/sda5
[21:32] <marcham89> LJR , did u manually set up the partitions when u installed ubuntu>
[21:33] <LJR> mka: I want to understand why Ubuntu has assigned the boot partition, /dev/sda1, 150G's and why the extension has only 6 and does nothing that I can see. Is it root?
[21:33] <LJR> marcham89: no, I let Ubuntu do it
[21:33] <muhammad_> how to check if i have openmp installed on my ubuntu machine ?

[21:35] <marcham89> karleeto: http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html
[21:35] <soreau> Rafael: In the link you posted, it has step by step instructions on what to do
[21:36] <mka> LJR, can you pastebin the output of "cat /etc/fstab" and that "sudo fdisk -l"
[21:36] <Hilikus> mister_roboto: anything that's package by package is not good. i need something that KNOWS whcih are upgradable and lists all the logs for ALL of them
[21:36] <mister_roboto> Hilikus: apt-listchanges looks like such a beast
[21:36] <mister_roboto> i just installed and and am looking at the man page
[21:37] <LJR> Sorry - I'm back. mka - i'll pastebin it now.
[21:38] <mister_roboto> Hilikus: hmmm... maybe not. can't see how to feed it from the local package cache
[21:38] <tanath> how do i safely clear syslog?
[21:38] <nerdy_kid> hi everybody, i just reinstalled KDE after much painful toil, but plasma-desktop wont run on login, and when i try to install plasma-desktop apt-get says it has no version and is therefore missing or obsolete. ???
[21:38] <tanath> what's the proper way to clear the logs?
[21:38] <hoho> cd /var/logs
[21:38]  * HappyNewYear everyone! :D
[21:38] <hoho> rm -rf *.old
[21:38] <hoho> ;|
[21:38] <skrite> i need a tool that will allow me to switch between keyboard layouts for english and russian, what can i do?
[21:39] <hoho> cd /var/log
[21:39] <Rafael> soreau, yes, but it says, that i have to download 3 packages, i can't access internet from ubuntu
[21:39] <tanath> time is of the essence here
[21:39] <dabaR> what logs?
[21:39] <tanath> my cpu is overheating and filling up my hard drive (which is already full)
[21:39] <tanath> syslog, messages, everything
[21:40] <nerdy_kid> tanath your CPU is filling your hard drive??? what?
[21:40] <drx> Is there a quick and easy way to resize an Ubuntu (ext3) partition?
[21:40] <nerdy_kid> drx LiveCD
[21:40] <soreau> Rafael: Cant you install those packages from the cd? When you look in sys>admin>software sources, select cdrom and deselect all the others, then apt-get update and try to install them
[21:40] <marcham89> drx: boot using LiveCD
[21:40] <ubuntu_mad> happy new year
[21:40] <dabaR> drx: variably quick, but ya, liveCD
[21:41] <drx> what do you run in the Live CD to do this?
[21:41] <nmvictor> happy *******!!! 2010 !!!**** to everyone
[21:41] <tanath> nerdy_kid, cpu is overheating, filling the logs
[21:41] <dabaR> drx: gnome partition editor, gparted
[21:41] <D-coy> hey m4v lady :P
[21:41] <itsnotstalking> how do i pipe to shell variables???  echo "/home/stalker" > $HOME             is saying /root is a directory
[21:41] <tanath> nerdy_kid, or was until my disk was full
[21:41] <nmvictor> anyone used smpp here?
[21:41] <ubuntu_mad> My google earth crashes on start up
[21:42] <muhammad_> how to check if i have openmp installed on my ubuntu machine ?
[21:42] <losha> tanath: overheating is almost always a hardware issue rather than software. Check your fans, heatsink, etc...
[21:42] <Coded1> thanks guys it kinda works now but it won't connect to my WPA2 network just my other WEP network and it doesnt do it on boot either, i think it might have something to do with my /etc/network/interfaces, Ive pasted the output and my interfaces here http://pastebin.ca/1733451
[21:42] <tanath> losha, already turned the fan up
[21:42] <riverbird> howto backport the karmic version of tomboy into 8.04??
[21:42] <ubuntu_mad> muhammad_: in synaptic maybe?
[21:42] <nerdy_kid> tanath ohh have you tried disassembling the PC and blowing it out with something?  I use an air compresser -- probaly get a dust fog out of it
[21:42] <tanath> losha, right now i'm worried about the fact that i have 0 bytes free due to the logs
[21:43] <tanath> losha, syslog is 6gb for instance
[21:43] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking:  export HOME=`<cmd writing to std out>`
[21:43] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, right thanx
[21:43] <tanath> nerdy_kid, i can solve that prob. i need help with the logs
[21:43] <Rafael> soreau: so i run ubuntu, then insert the cd and from there i can install packages?
[21:44] <losha> tanath: you can delete it, it's probably just full of overheating warnings. But you still have to solve your overheating problem. Is this a laptop?
[21:44] <tanath> losha, nope. my 5-6 yr old desktop
[21:44] <RAMMOS> KALISPERA
[21:44] <soreau> Rafael: There are some essential packages that are on the cd, yes. You will have to edit your software sources as I described though
[21:44] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: actually you should wrap that with double quotes in case your standard output text has spaces in it
[21:45] <losha> tanath: intel or amd processor? Have you vacuumed clean the heatsink recently?
[21:45] <Operator`> Help
[21:45] <Operator`> My left mouse button has stopped working
[21:45] <RAMMOS> KAPOIA KYRIA GIA PRIBE?
[21:45] <Operator`> It's happened before
[21:45] <Operator`> How can I re-enable it without rebooting?
[21:45] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking:   export HOME="`cmd`"
[21:45] <marcham89> Operator: are you sure its not the mouse itself?
[21:45] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, well it worked, but openbox is still trying to write temp files to /root, which is a problem :S
[21:45] <losha> !gr | RAMMOS
[21:45] <Operator`> Yes sure. it's brand new. it happened the other day aswell
[21:45] <tanath> losha, intel. all i did was take out the PSU for a bit. most of the alerts were 'cause i forgot power to the fan speed switch when i hooked it back up
[21:45] <Snump> Heat issues?  I suggest Arctic Silver heatsinc compound.  I used it on this laptop (AMD Sempron) and even running rc5 the fan barely runs.
[21:46] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: are you running in a root shell?
[21:46] <nerdy_kid> can someone with KDE please run sudo apt-get --reinstall install plasma-desktop and tell me if there are any errors....would be very helpful to my case
[21:46] <marcham89> Operator: has this happened with your old mouse? This mouse could just be bad.
[21:46] <Operator`> hmmm no but it doesn't happen in windows
[21:46] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, i su'd to non-root
[21:46] <tanath> losha, though it's going now, it's still overheating apparently. i checked the speed, and it was on med. set it to high, but there's no room on HDD to see if it worked
[21:46] <marcham89> Operator: Try a different USB port.
[21:46] <losha> tanath: so you're saying you've solved the overheating problem and now just need to clean up the filesystem?
[21:46] <Operator`> and the fact a reboot fixes it points at software... ?
[21:46] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: did you "su -" ?
[21:46] <marcham89> Operator: Not always no
[21:46] <tanath> losha, we'll see when i clear up space
[21:46] <Operator`> Always
[21:46] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: with the hyphen?
[21:46] <Rafael> soreau: ok i'll try, thanks for the help
[21:46] <tanath> losha, though that or something else is still filling up space
[21:47] <marcham7> Ok ill try that
[21:47] <marcham7> happy new year
[21:47] <marcham7> and all that
[21:47] <marcham89> ...
[21:47] <nerdy_kid> can someone with KDE please run sudo apt-get --reinstall install plasma-desktop and tell me if there are any errors....would be very helpful to my case
[21:47] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, no just went  su stalker, but i tried logging as just user, it got rid of perm error, now it just gives a display error quickly before it logs me out
[21:47] <losha> tanath: delete the syslog file to get some breathing room. Then you can run sudo du -x | sort -rn > /tmp/du.out to see where all the space has gone
[21:47] <hamz1aatova1> why does the audio settings change by themselves?????????
[21:47] <hamz1aatova1> can i disable one account at evulution?
[21:47] <tanath> how are you supposed to clear the logs?
[21:48] <tanath> just delete it?
[21:48] <tanath> losha, there is disk usage analyzer...
[21:48] <nerdy_kid> tanath sudo echo "" > log_name
[21:48] <ubuntu_mad> thank you Ubuntu community..my video skipping has been fixed...wooohoo
[21:48] <losha> tanath: in this case yes. In normal use, the logs don't get that big. By all means use the disk usage analyzer if you prefer...
[21:48] <Callum_> nerdy_kid: couldn't you just touch log_name?
[21:48] <ubuntu_mad> anyone help me with my google earth crashing on start up?
[21:49] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, failed to open from $DISPLAY or something, ill try to get the full error, pipe the output of exec openbox-session to a file or something
[21:49] <tanath> nerdy_kid, zsh: file exists: /var/log/syslog
[21:49] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: maybe you have stuff owned by root in your user's home dir by running as root inappropriately.   you can find out with "find ~ -user root"
[21:49] <nerdy_kid> Callum idk....
[21:49] <Callum_> unless you want to overwrite something...
[21:49] <Callum_> oh well
[21:50] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: you should be able to see the error in your log files, like in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[21:50] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, maybe ill check, the error is , failed to open display from the DISPLAY enviroment variable
[21:50] <losha> Callum_: touch won't truncate an existing file....
[21:50] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, doesnt mean anything to me lol
[21:50] <Callum_> losha: yeah
[21:50] <nerdy_kid> tanath gotta use bash for that
[21:51] <nitrohax> Got an easy one here, where is the setting using 9.10 to have the mouse scroll wheel change between different desktops/
[21:52] <nerdy_kid> can someone with KDE please run sudo apt-get --reinstall install plasma-desktop and tell me if there are any errors....would be very helpful to my case!
[21:52] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, my .xinitrc is showing up as root owned
[21:53] <tanath> nerdy_kid, methinks zsh is superior
[21:53] <nerdy_kid> tanath yeah but the command wont work with zsh ;)
[21:53] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: change it to the real user id   (sudo chown user .xinitrc)
[21:53] <e-i-k-e> hi. is there a music player that saves the last position of my queue when i close it?

[21:55] <marcham89> Bye everyone. Happy new year.
[21:55] <jarray52> What might cause Ubuntu to hard freeze whenever a USB drive is inserted? The hang occurs about 3 seconds after the drive is inserted. What log files should I check?
[21:55] <EKrava> happy new year at GMT+2 timezone
[21:56] <[S|G]> jarray52 try looking at /var/log/messages for hints
[21:56] <drx> Live CD says "... The drive appears confused", how do you get past this?
[21:56] <nerdy_kid> can someone with KDE please run sudo apt-get --reinstall install plasma-desktop and tell me if there are any errors....would be very helpful to my case!
[21:56] <soreau> jarray52: Check /var/log/messages. It is likely a kernel driver issue
[21:56] <OerHeks> nerdy_kid what case ?
[21:56] <e-i-k-e> blakkheim: thx i will give it a try
[21:57] <mka> EKrava, still too soon
[21:57] <mister_roboto> nerdy_kid: would you please try logging out and shutting off the computer? it would be very helpful to my case
[21:57] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, same error about the display unfortunetly
[21:57] <jarray52> soreau: Using what tool? gedit can't read the messages file.
[21:57] <soreau> jarray52: Sure it can. Just run gksu gedit /path/to/file
[21:57] <usr13> jarray52: tail -f /var/log/messages
[21:58] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: do you have some error indicated in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[21:58] <nerdy_kid> OerHeks installed KDE 4.4 beta then had to reinstall to downgrade to a stable version and now plasma-desktop wont start on login and the package plasma-desktop wont install: says that it has no version
[21:59] <jarray52> usr13: tail -f /var/log/messages works
[21:59] <drx> nerdy_kid: the Live CD won't start for some reason, says "...hdb: cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused"
[21:59] <OerHeks> nerdy_kid so i have to install KDE 4.4 beta, de-install and then re-install plasma ?
[22:00] <jarray52> soreau: I may be doing something wrong, but gksu gedit /path/to/file doesn't. It's most likely a permissions issue.
[22:00] <usr13> jarray52: I know.
[22:00] <h4f> Happy New Year!
[22:00] <soreau> jarray52: What are you doing and how is it failing?
[22:00] <usr13> h4f: Happy old year

[22:01] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, no errors, the only other gui i have is awesome3, and i i dont really like it, maybe ill just try xfce? i just heard openbox was good
[22:01] <jarray52> soreau: I'm in the /var/log directory. And, i tried gksu gedit messages, sudo gedit messages
[22:02] <jarray52> soreau: Then, I get could not open the file /var/log/messages. gedit can't detect the character encoding.
[22:02] <Zymeth> hi
[22:02] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: i ran openbox on an old computer a long time ago and liked it.   maybe you can try "dpkg-reconfigure openbox" to reset your configuration after you messed it up earlier?
[22:02] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, should $DISPLAY be empty?

My main monitor is set to my computer, and I have it extended to the television display.  When I boot the login screen shows on my tv, and once i login my computer monitor becomes my main display.  I would like the login screen to show up on my computer monitor and not my tv.  Can anyone help with this?
[22:04] <mbruins> is there a wat i can enable this?

[22:07] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, its just a black screen to start with eh?

[22:07] <itsnotstalking> no bar but menu if i right click

[22:07] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: ok. like i said, it's been a long time since i used it.
[22:07] <usr13> jarray52: You might consider testing memory.
[22:08] <jarray52> usr13: I greped USB
[22:08] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, yeah, maybe i just need to config it
[22:08] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: yes it's great for low power machines since it's very lightweight
[22:08] <jarray52> usr13: How? The system crashes. I have to power off. That should wipe out memor? right?
[22:08] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, yeah, i just got a netbook and i want to keep it light
[22:09] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, thanx for the help
[22:09] <epinky> mbruins: View > Status Bar ; does that have a mark before it?
[22:09] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: did you try the netbook remix?  i have no idea if it's good but it's supposed to be optimized for smaller screens
[22:09] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: someone was saying it uses a lot of resources though.  i have no experience at all wtih it
[22:09] <usr13> jarray52: I do not know what is causing  your PC to lock up, can only guess, but most hard lock-ups are due to faulty memory.  I would suggest changing memory or testing what you have.
[22:09] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, im actually running arch
[22:10] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: ahh, ok
[22:10] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: well, good luck playing with your new machine :)
[22:10] <jarray52> usr13: It could be a bad bios setting or a problem with a kernel module.
[22:10] <sdubois> UNR is quite slow on my brand new Eee running off a flash drive. should i expect it to be faster if i install?
[22:11] <jarray52> usr13: or kernel
[22:11] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, other than having to switch modules to go into monitor mode on my wireless its going great, thanx
[22:11] <usr13> jarray52: Exactly, could be several things.
[22:11] <jarray52> usr13: The crash occurs every time I insert a usb memory stick.
[22:11] <jarray52> usr13: It's 100% reproducible.
[22:12] <jarray52> usr13: found it
[22:12] <usr13> jarray52: But, hard lockups are due to defective memory 9 times out of 10.
[22:12] <usr13> jarray52: What did you find?
[22:12] <jarray52> the log lines right before the crash that have usb in them.
[22:13] <jMyles> I want to apache to serve files from some place other than /var/www - need i create a symbolic link?
[22:14] <grawity> jMyles: I guess so. The other way would be to change the entire docroot in Apache's config.
[22:14] <usr13> jarray52: And is it really a hard lock up?  Unrecoverable?  As in no reponse at all from mouse or keyboard?  But can you ssh into the machine from another?  Can you ping it?  etc...?  Is it really totally locked up?  or... not...?
[22:14] <drx> can you move an ubuntu linux drive from an Intel P4 system into an Intel Core i5 system and have it still work?
[22:15] <jarray52> usr13: I ran a memory and full system check 2 days ago. Everything was fine except a "potential false positive" for the Xzibit rootkit. Yes. It's a very hard lock up. Unrecoverable except for pulling the plug.
[22:15] <usr13> drx: Probably.
[22:15] <mister_roboto> jMyles: you can change DocumentRoot in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default (if you're using just the default setup)
[22:16] <grawity> drx: Should work just fine.
[22:16] <mister_roboto> jMyles: but leaving it alone and putting some symlinks in that dir works just fine too
[22:16] <pratta> hello my friends! I need help about vostro 1510 Dell wireless driver
[22:17] <usr13> jarray52: did you search for rootkit?
[22:17] <riverbird> newb help on building packages?
[22:18] <jarray52> jarray52: Yes. I ran chkroot.
[22:18] <usr13> jarray52: Did you try any rootkit detection tools on your system?
[22:18] <usr13> jarray52: Ok..
[22:18] <supertux1> usr13 how to search for a rootkit?
[22:18] <jMyles> mister_roboto, grawity: Thanks.  :-)
[22:18] <jarray52> supertux1: try chkroot or rkhunter
[22:19] <usr13> supertux1: You use a rootkit detection tool, as jarray52 says, chkroot or rkhunter etc.
[22:19] <CodeTbone> Hey guys, I have Karmic installed locally and bought a book that came with Feisty (7.04) on a liveCD with all kinds of code tools for debugging, compiling etc....Any possible way I could port those into my installation without replacing my Karmic files with outdated software and/or creating redundancy of the filesystem?
[22:19] <bryce__> EKrava: I got the login to look normal but the pointer is still not the way I want it
[22:19] <supertux1> tnks
[22:20] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: just install the same tools from the new repo versions
[22:20] <l3oddah> hi, I have just installed ubuntu 9.1.  I am using two monitors, one is my computer monitor the other is my television.  My main monitor is set to my computer, and I have it extended to the television display.  When I boot the login screen shows on my tv, and once i login my computer monitor becomes my main display.  I would like the login screen to show up on my computer monitor and not my tv.  Can anyone help with this?
[22:20] <usr13> CodeTbone: Acquire tools that are native to Ubuntu.
[22:20] <colde89>  /join #debian.de
[22:20] <usr13> CodeTbone:  apt-cache search   is your friend.
[22:20] <CodeTbone> Well theres a couple hundred tools, is the thing
[22:21] <jarray52> usr13: Does the following entries look funny?
[22:21] <jarray52> kernel: [    3.457327] input: HID 04d9:1400 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/usb3/3-5/3-5?
[22:21] <macman_> can i dump a rtmp ? i been trying with mplayer and no go
[22:21] <jarray52> usr13: kernel: [    3.230023] usb 3-5: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 5
[22:22] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: just install the ones you need (start with build-essential) and install others as you find you need them
[22:22] <jj_galvez> does Empathy have an irc chanel
[22:23] <CodeTbone> K, how would I use apt-cache search to find them?
[22:23] <usr13> jarray52: I don't know    really..  But how is the usb device formatted?  (What fs?)
[22:23] <mister_roboto> apt-cache search <keywork>
[22:23] <VikingAge> The people of Iceland are NEVER!!! going to surrender to EU occupational forces. DEATH!!!! to the EU. Icelandic Viking POWER!!!
[22:23] <usr13> jarray52: What is on it?
[22:24] <P1R1> Hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7. What should I do now so I can choose witch to use?
[22:24] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: you might find it easier to use a package management gui like synaptic to search for stuff
[22:24] <ortsvorsteher> P1R1, did you first install windows?
[22:24] <usr13> P1R1: Which did you install first?
[22:24] <jj_galvez> evermind I found my own answer
[22:24] <P1R1> Yes, Windows first
[22:24] <zleap> you should have a boot loader then
[22:24] <jarray52> usr13: I'm guessing it is ext3 or fat32. I believe it contains data. It may contain something unpleasant as well. The drive does not crash other computers. Just this one. Furthermore, the drive worked okay on this computer previously.
[22:24] <CodeTbone> Ok, in the event that the book calls for something and I cant find it then I would just copy the individual file right, and how could I check for its dependenceies?
[22:25] <usr13> P1R1: You should be presented with 2 choices when the grub boot loader comes up.
[22:25] <usr13> jarray52: previous to what?
[22:25] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: you're just asking for trouble installing such old packages from the book cd. you should just get the package from the karmic repo
[22:26] <pdragon_> hi i was wondering what was the command to block or ban a host name from your server
[22:26] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: if you have to ask about trying to do something like that, you're very likely to have problems
[22:26] <usr13> jarray52: Try reformatting it.
[22:26] <bryce__> I installed kubuntu-desktop and now my curser is the kde default although i have everything else back to normal
[22:26] <CodeTbone> I already did for some of the base ones but theres a couple hundred and I didnt want to have to search synaptic for all of them individually
[22:26] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: just search for the same package names in the karmic repo and install those. you'll be far, far better off than trying to install those old ones from feisty
[22:27] <usr13> jarray52: ... but I still suspect a hardware issue.
[22:27] <pdragon_> anyone
[22:27] <bryce__> oh, i want to be able to change it
[22:27] <usr13> CodeTbone: What are these tools?    Have a list...?  or...?
[22:27] <mister_roboto> CodeTbone: but it sounds like you don't even know which ones you need, right? can't you just start coding away and install the ones as you find a need for them?
[22:27] <elling_> Hi, i'm new here. what is the best way to controlle my dualmonitor desktop with my netbook? both running UBU 9.10.
[22:27] <bryce__> I can
[22:28] <boxxy_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8589611 <[22:28] <mbruins> mister_roboto: lol thanks, i diddnt see it :)
[22:28] <bryce__> *I can't
[22:28] <CodeTbone> usr13: No.
[22:28] <mister_roboto> mbruins: np :)
[22:28] <mbruins> happy new year everyone!! im going to socialize :) hopely its a good year for ubuntu XD
[22:28] <CodeTbone> mister: Yeah, I was just curious if there was a way I could do it all in one swoop, not a problem that I cant though
[22:29] <pdragon_> hi i was wondering what was the command to block or ban a host name from your server
[22:29] <P1R1> usr13, Now is working, dont know what happened before
[22:29] <usr13> CodeTbone: as mister_roboto says... you need to know what you are installing,  you can only use one application at a time, and do you really have a need for all of them?
[22:29] <grawity> pdragon_: What do you want to block it from?
[22:29] <usr13> P1R1: Well, it is working - that is what counts - Right?
[22:29] <pdragon_> i want to block it from my server
[22:29]  * grawity facepalms
[22:30] <CodeTbone> Probably not, I just dont like running off of the LiveCD whenever I need something
[22:30] <pdragon_> i don't want it to beable to conect to it
[22:30] <P1R1> urs13, yeah. Thank you
[22:30] <grawity> pdragon_: okay then. iptables -A INPUT -s somehost -j REJECT
[22:30] <mneptok> pdragon_: SMTP? HTTPD? SSHD? what?
[22:30] <usr13> pdragon_: Yes, you can use iptables rule to block a particular IP address.
[22:30] <uiuiui> hey, how can i bridge two network interfaces on ubuntu?
[22:30] <Scunizi> How do I change the network name of my computer?
[22:30] <pdragon_> thanks grawity
[22:30] <Andre> pdragon_: just dont connect to it
[22:30] <mattgyver> edit the /etc/hosts file
[22:30] <mister_roboto> grawity: waitaminute... he said connect TO it   :)
[22:30] <uiuiui> i installed bridge-utils, however, interface does not start up
[22:30] <dekenx> which channel should I use for help? (video help to be specific)
[22:31] <Andre> dekenx: are you using ubuntu
[22:31] <dekenx> yes, well mint actually
[22:31] <mattgyver> Scunizi, sorry, edit the /etc/hostname file
[22:31] <grawity> mister_roboto: "don't want it to beable to conect to it" -- I interpreted it as "don't want <somehost> to beable to conect to <pdragon_'s server>"
[22:31] <dekenx> but the same thing basically
[22:31] <usr13> pdragon_: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth1  -p tcp -s ###.##.###.## -j DROP
[22:31] <Scunizi> mattgyver: thanks..
[22:31] <grawity> mister_roboto: Eh, it'll have the same effect anyway.
[22:31] <usr13> pdragon_: or:  /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0  -p tcp -s ###.##.###.## -j DROP
[22:32] <mister_roboto> grawity: lol   maybe the first "it" was his kid or something
[22:32] <usr13> paissad-hp: etc...
[22:32] <paissad-hp> :)
[22:32] <grawity> mister_roboto: Eh, that rule will block all incoming packets - which includes TCP replies.
[22:32] <usr13> paissad-hp: Sorry  wrong nic
[22:32] <paissad-hp> np
[22:32] <mister_roboto> grawity: good point
[22:33] <grawity> mister_roboto: also, he said "from your server"
[22:33] <grawity> mister_roboto: so I took it as his own :|
[22:33] <dekenx> Andre: ubuntu 9.10
[22:33] <Scunizi> mattgyver: and to take effect is that sudo /etc/init.d/network restart ?? or is it different now in 9.10
[22:33] <mattgyver> Scunizi, its the same
[22:33] <Scunizi> k
[22:33] <Andre> dekenx: then this is the right channel
[22:33] <jarray52> usr13: Sorry. My system crashed due to trying something with the usb drive.
[22:33] <mattgyver> Scunizi, its sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[22:33] <mattgyver> I didnt realize you didnt have the ing
[22:34] <CodeTbone> Also, Is it possible to mount HD's while running off a LiveCD?
[22:34] <Scunizi> mattgyver: good catch.. thanks
[22:34] <dekenx> Andre: ok thanks
[22:34] <Andre> ohoh
[22:34] <Scunizi> test
[22:34] <mister_roboto> grawity: ok, i'm just playing. it was kind of ambiguous and could be interpreted as wanting to filter accessible sites but i'm sure he meant what you're saying
[22:35] <Stealthbox> Can anyone help me install ubuntu 9.04?
[22:35] <usr13> Stealthbox: We can answer any specific questions  you have...
[22:35] <dekenx> how come without compositing some apps are displayed weird? this seems to disappear when using EXA instead of XAA
[22:36] <ubuntu_mad> Stealthbox: whats up
[22:36] <tvaughn> how can i mount a sata drive with terminal?
[22:36] <Stealthbox> usr13: i am currently setting up the partition, on step 4 of 7 and it says i hav no root defined...how do i remedy that
[22:36] <shannon> hello
[22:37] <ubuntu_mad> my google earth crashes after start up
[22:37] <dekenx> Stealthbox: are u doing manual partitioning?
[22:37] <Stealthbox> dekenx:
[22:37] <Stealthbox> yes
[22:37] <dekenx> Stealthbox: then create a partition with a /root mount point
[22:38] <CodeTbone> Thanks mister_roboto & usr13.
[22:38] <dekenx> Stealthbox: usually the main partition
[22:38] <TaterSalad> I'm having trouble getting any sound over HDMI with a fresh Karmic install...tried looking at things like aplay alasamixer .asoundrc alsa-base.conf etc etc but nothing seems to work. been at it for days. i can confirm the hardware works in another enironment....any ideas?
[22:38] <Stealthbox> dekenx: the only mount points i saw were / dos and /windows
[22:38] <dekenx> Stealthbox: what filesystem are you using?
[22:39] <minimec> Stealthbox: One Prtition has to be the '/' (root) folder. Normally you make three to four partitions. '/','/home','SWAP', ev.'/var'
[22:39] <itsnotstalking> whats a lightweight terminal program?
[22:39] <ubuntu_mad> TaterSalad: great name.....I'm a noob and spent forever messing round with sound
[22:39] <x__> awa.irc.pl
[22:39] <Stealthbox> well i partitioned the remaining 800 gig as fat32
[22:39] <dekenx> Stealthbox: there's the problem, don't use FAT or NTFS use one of the ext
[22:39] <itsnotstalking> whats a lightweight terminal program that i can copy and paste from :)?
[22:40] <TaterSalad> ubuntu_mad: haha thx any luck>?
[22:40] <ubuntu_mad> TaterSalad: finally got it working but dont remember how now lol.......sorry
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  you can cut/past from most any terminal emulator program.
[22:40] <dekenx> Stealthbox: u can't make a /root on a fat partition
[22:40] <epinky> tvaughn: is it recognized by Ubuntu?
[22:40] <wolf23> blakkheim:  thanx, but i am downloading from firefox download!
[22:40] <itsnotstalking> Dr_Willis, i cant in xterm, do i have to configure it?
[22:40] <tvaughn> doesnt seem to be epinky its hotswapped in
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  theres various 'lighter' alternatives to gnome-terminal, or the classics xterm and rxvt
[22:40] <TaterSalad> ubuntu_mad: what vidoe card do have/=?
[22:40] <Stealthbox> so i should not do a advanced partition
[22:40] <tvaughn> if i boot with it hooked.... it will boot to OEM
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  select text, Middle click - thats how.. :)
[22:40] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: can't you hightlight text by dragging and middle click to insert?
[22:40] <ubuntu_mad> TaterSalad:nvida
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  thats the old-skool ORIGINAL way to cut/paste :)
[22:41] <dekenx> Stealthbox: yes
[22:41] <TaterSalad> ion?
[22:41] <itsnotstalking> im not sure i have middle click on this lappy
[22:41] <epinky> tvaughn: have you changed boot order in BIOS?
[22:41] <Stealthbox> ok thanks guys....i'll be back later to follow up
[22:41] <tvaughn> it doesnt help
[22:41] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  try right and left clicking at the same time.
[22:41] <dekenx> Stealthbox: what drives do you have?
[22:41] <tvaughn> my mbr is screwed up
[22:41] <Dr_Willis> itsnotstalking:  or try some other terminal app.
[22:41] <Stealthbox> my hard drive?
[22:41] <dekenx> yes
[22:41] <itsnotstalking> Dr_Willis, the button is like a see-saw!!
[22:42] <Stealthbox> i have a one ter sata
[22:42] <dekenx> do you have only one? and how big is it?
[22:42] <dekenx> ok
[22:42] <dekenx> did u format it?
[22:42] <Stealthbox> not yet
[22:43] <wolf23> can anyone tell me how to use aria2 plz?
[22:43] <Stealthbox> dekenx: should i do that before the install
[22:43] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, yeah i think im supposed to have a bar on here somewhere, cause when i minimiz progs they just minimize down into nowhere
[22:43] <dekenx> Stealthbox: do advanced partitioning, create a new partition table and a new partition
[22:43] <dekenx> Stealthbox: make sure the partition has a /root mount point and Is ext
[22:44] <Stealthbox> dekenx:ok
[22:44] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: bummer :\   sorry, i can't help you with the config
[22:44] <riverbird> any help compiling packages .. ?  ./configure gives ' C compiler cannot create executables
[22:44] <riverbird> See `config.log' '  #where is config.log?
[22:44] <dekenx> Stealthbox: also you might wanna have some swap space
[22:44] <itsnotstalking> mister, ill figure it out, what would that bottom panel be called, what a good search term for it?

[22:45] <dekenx> Stealthbox: what's your ram at?
[22:45] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, , ill figure it out, what would that bottom panel be called, what a good search term for it?
[22:45] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: i really have no idea. i remember it just being there with the base installation
[22:45] <Stealthbox> dekenx: 4g
[22:45] <molecule_> HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
[22:45] <itsnotstalking> mister_roboto, alrite, thx
[22:45] <dekenx> Stealthbox: btw did you try the automatic partitioning?

[22:49] <mister_roboto> itsnotstalking: that's a real pain.
[22:49] <Dr_Willis> riverbird:  then you dont have a compiler installed.. thus it cant make executables...

[22:50] <psibley> I have a broad question regarding hardware support.  I can't seem to find a distro that has full hardware support for my netbook.  Between 2 versions (8.04 and 9.10) Everything works.  is there a way to add hardware support to 9.10 that exists in 8.04?
[22:51] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: if you're trying to start it from a menu or something, try starting it from a terminal window. that's a trick to sometimes see errors with gui programs starting up
[22:51] <BellinXFelon> can someone help, I am using gtkpod to put music on my Ipod and it wont write to it, it keeps saying permission denied, and it wont let me change ownership
[22:51] <LOGAN> is there and Dutch Ubuntu channel on IRC?
[22:52] <ubuntu_mad> mister_roboto: thanks...whats the sudo?
[22:52] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: is the iPod formatted FAT32 (Windows) or HFS+ (mac)?
[22:52] <LOGAN> on ebay I only find copies, no original pressed CD's
[22:52] <riverbird> Dr_Willis, thx.  this is a new tomboy package i'm trying to install .. seems like it should be more simple .. ?  maybe not
[22:52] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : FAT32
[22:52] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: well... you don't need sudo to just run it as yourself.   something like /usr/bin/googearth or whatever it's called
[22:52] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: are you using Ubuntu, or a derivative?
[22:52] <Flannel> LOGAN: That's #ubuntu-nl, they might be able to figure something out.  Or this one has one of each, actually: http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=578
[22:52] <zleap> LOGAN, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DutchTeam
[22:52] <Dr_Willis> riverbird:  ive no issues with compiling from source.. but then again.. you do need tio actaulluy install the stuff TO compile. :)
[22:52] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : karmic, ubuntu 9.19
[22:53] <BellinXFelon> 9.10*
[22:53] <Flannel> LOGAN: (it's got some other stuff too, but it does include one of each CD)
[22:53] <qt-x-pidgin> !du | qt-x
[22:53] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: try Rhythmbox
[22:53] <Dr_Willis> riverbird:  'sudo apt-get build-dep PACKAGENAME'  helps :)  I think thats the right command
[22:53] <qt-x-pidgin> ! de | qt-x
[22:53] <ubuntu_mad> mister_roboto: sudo to run GE in terminal?
[22:53] <riverbird> thanksx2
[22:54] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: like i said, you don't need sudo just to run a program. just type in the full path to the program executable.
[22:54] <qt-x-pidgin> !de | LOGAN
[22:54] <ubuntu_mad> mister_roboto: ok
[22:54] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: if that doesn't mean anything to you, i don't know where the program installs or what it is called and i can't really help you further
[22:54] <LOGAN> thanks Flannel
[22:54] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: but it's a useful trick to begin troubleshooting
[22:55] <LOGAN> also thanks qt-x-pidgin
[22:55] <qt-x-pidgin> HAPPY NEW YEAR
[22:55] <coz_> qt-x-pidgin,  still the 31st here:)
[22:55] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : it still wont let me delete anything, or write anything to it
[22:56] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: what is the mount point of the iPod?
[22:56] <meowsus_> Got a problem. Everything was running well in Ubuntu 9.1 until i created a new panel for a bunch of shortcuts to live. I set it to be at the top and to autohide, hoping that it would sit right under my top menu. Now Gnome is totally frozen.
[22:56] <qt-x-pidgin> It well come . give him time.  Restarting my computer. Replacing xorg.conf with a saved backup, even dpkg-reconfigure gnome-panel and gnome-panel-data
[22:57] <psibley> I have a netbook that I can't seem to get full hardware support working on.  However, I have found several different distros that, when combined, will run all of my hardware properly (sound, video, webcam, hdmi).  Is there any way I can "extract" hardware support from one distro and "add" it to another?  Any help would be greatly appreciated
[22:57] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : copy and paste into terminal?
[22:57] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: yes please
[22:58] <coz_> meowsus_,  ouch!!!   can you walk me  throught exactly what you did
[22:58] <NamVet> Up to my neck in Alligators can someone throw me a line?
[22:58] <meowsus_> coz_, yeah man it stings. Here we go.
[22:58]  * Dr_Willis tosses NamVet  some BBQ sauce
[22:58] <mister_roboto> NamVet: --------------------------------------------------O
[22:58] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : operation not permitted
[22:58] <CodeTbon1> One last question, when finished running on the LiveCD I click restart computer, and it begins to shutdown like normal, then it says remove disc and press enter, yet when I press enter all that happens is I get a '^M' in the prompt instead of it proceeding with shutdown, forcing me to do a hard shutdown by holding the power button in, CTRL+ALT+DEL doesnt do anything either.
[22:58] <omar> when i install virtual bow it says that i need to be root to instal kernel copiled or some like dat
[22:58] <coz_> meowsus_,  starting with what  or how your system was set up to when it froze
[22:58] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: try "sudo -i" and see wha'ppens
[22:59] <NamVet> Can't access my Places files; Documents, Music, etc.
[22:59] <qt-x|pidgin> or sudo su
[22:59] <omar> i was root
[22:59] <coz_> meowsus_,  if you like you can pm me.... I cant guarantee a fix  but walk me through see if I can reproduce it
[22:59] <meowsus_> coz_, Its a triple monitor, two gpu machine. Paired Geforce 8400 GS cards.
[22:59] <omar> i did sudo bach
[22:59] <meowsus_> Oh yeah, totally
[22:59] <coz_> meowsus_,  ooooo
[22:59] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : it changed to root@chris-desktop:~#
[22:59] <NamVet> BRB
[23:00] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: chown -R chris:chris /media/IPOD
[23:00] <omar> can some one tel me how can i get dat to instal completely?
[23:00] <wolf23> can anyone tell me how to use aria2 to get a torrent file plz?
[23:00] <NamVet> I'm back
[23:00] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : still saying operation not permitted
[23:01] <mister_roboto> omar: i take it that you are installing from the downloaded package rather than from the repo?
[23:01] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: bizarre.
[23:01] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : very
[23:01] <omar> mister roboto im installing that from synapic manager
[23:01] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: have you tried setting it on fire? or throwing it at Steve Jobs' house?  ;)
[23:01] <NamVet> Had problems w/ installing Adobe flashplayer - got some bad advice - and removed some files and reinstalled. Original desktop disappeared.
[23:02] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : microwave
[23:02] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: oh. ex-felon. don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
[23:02] <NamVet> When I click on Documents in Places folder timer spins but no joy.
[23:02] <mister_roboto> omar: did it prompt you for the sudo password? i never actually use synaptic so i don't know if you need to use gksu or if it prompts you
[23:02] <ShazbotM1Nasty> darnit, what's the mint channel?
[23:02] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: pastebin the output of "df -h" please
[23:02] <itsnotstalking> know a light terminal prog that allows me to right click copy? i got no middle click on this laptop, and im not installing gnome just for its terminal prog, ive tried 2 so far and no luck
[23:03] <mneptok> !mint > ShazbotM1Nasty
[23:03] <omar> yes it did ask me for password on terminal and on the stnapic
[23:03] <omar> synapic#
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> BellinXFelon: , mneptok  you are not trying to chown/chmod a vfat/ntfs filesystem are you?
[23:03] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: no, the mount point
[23:03] <mister_roboto> and halfway through it stops to give an error about needing root?
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  and the filesystem is what? The permissions of the mountpoint BEFOR its mounted dont matter.
[23:03] <mister_roboto> omar:  and halfway through it stops to give an error about needing root?
[23:04] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: yes, they do.
[23:04] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: (for FAT32)
[23:04] <omar> no when im installing it
[23:04] <omar> like when im reading agreements
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  not that ive ever noticed.. and i recall checking that out ages ago. its all about  the options when you mount the filesystem
[23:05] <cesar199> disculpen alguien habla español
[23:05] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: existing mount point stubs will override "mount" variables
[23:05] <omar> it just say foward den it says if i want to get recopile kernel some like dat i click the bow and then i click foward and it says that to get that i need to be root
[23:05] <ubuntu_mad> mister_roboto: i cant get GE to run from aterminal
[23:05] <qt-x|pidgin> !help
[23:05] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : http://paste.ubuntu.com/349703/
[23:05] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  ive never seen that behviour.
[23:05] <CodeTbon1> One last question, when finished running on the LiveCD I click restart computer, and it begins to shutdown like normal, then it says remove disc and press enter, yet when I press enter all that happens is I get a '^M' in the prompt instead of it proceeding with shutdown, forcing me to do a hard shutdown by holding the power button in, CTRL+ALT+DEL doesnt do anything either.
[23:05] <qt-x|pidgin> !comand
[23:05] <Dr_Willis> I would try.. but i got no vfat handy to try. :)
[23:05] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: how did you mount the iPod? just plug it in, or ... ?
[23:06] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : yes
[23:06] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : then sudo mount -a
[23:06] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: ls -l /media/IPOD
[23:06] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: that's the problem
[23:06] <qt-x|pidgin> how can i have a list with available commands of this channel bot ?
[23:06] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: unmount it, then just plug it in
[23:06] <omar> and how can i get google gadgets?
[23:06] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: no need for the "mount" command
[23:07] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : sudo umount /media/IPOD ?
[23:07] <NamVet> I'll be back.
[23:07] <mister_roboto> omar: i'm not sure of the details of using synaptic to know what the problem is. i just installed it via command line:  sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[23:07] <itsnotstalking> alrite im gonna try lilyterm although it sound kinda, flowery
[23:07] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: yep
[23:07] <qt-x|xchat> qt-x|pidgin
[23:07] <mister_roboto> omar: that completed normally and it's working perfectly
[23:07] <omar> ok
[23:08] <cesar199> I have a problem with ubuntu 9.10 could help me please
[23:08] <omar> and how can i get google gadyets?
[23:09] <B3rz3rk3r> !ask | cesar199
[23:09] <mister_roboto> ubuntu_mad: does that mean you found the executable and tried to run it?
[23:09] <Dr_Willis> omar:  i recall seeing some repositoruies that let you install the google gadgets easially.
[23:09] <plouffe> Trying to play various movie DVDs from various programs;; get a bunch of "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block" ;; but I can open the DVD in nautilus and see the files;; so how is it an IO error?
[23:09] <omar> how?
[23:09] <omar> can i gwt comand for terminal?
[23:09] <omar> get*
[23:09] <ubuntu_mad> mister_roboto: lol no...i've no idea what im doin...sorry
[23:09] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : it says permissions for /media/IPOD could not be determined
[23:09] <Dr_Willis> omar:  id check google  for google gadgets ubuntu, and either download the package, or enable the google repos. I think it was googles own repos..
[23:09]  * OerHeks from NL 00:09 local time Happy New Year !
[23:09] <ortsvorsteher> Happy New year :)
[23:10] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : now do i change ownership?
[23:20] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : this makes me want to get drunk early on new years
[23:20] <omar> Depends: libkrb53 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but it is not installable
[23:20] <omar>                   Depends: libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2) but it is not installable

[23:20] <omar> thats wat it says
[23:20] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: i already am. this is why it's taking so long.
[23:20] <omar> so which package should i get?
[23:21] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : should i try sudo chown
[23:21] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: plug it in again. do NOT run any "mount" command. then "ls -l /media" again. still owned by root?
[23:21] <qt-x|pidgin> test
[23:21] <BellinXFelon> mnpetok : it says chris chris
[23:22] <Dr_Willis> qt-x|pidgin:  phail.
[23:22] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: now go rock out with Rhythmbox
[23:22] <omar> ?
[23:22] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: don't use GTKpod. it's unecessary.
[23:23] <omar> and one?
[23:23] <omar> Depends: libkrb53 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but it is not installable
[23:23] <omar>                   Depends: libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2) but it is not installable

[23:23] <FloodBot1> omar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:23] <omar> which packet should i get
[23:23] <ganja> bonne année, bonne santé
[23:23] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: is workee?
[23:24] <mister_roboto> omar:  i just installed google-gadgets-qt (i'm running kde) and it just installed and ran with no issue at all. how did you try to install it?
[23:24] <ubuntu_mad> i seem to have lost my admin rights
[23:24] <omar> sudo apt-get install gogle-gadgets...
[23:25] <innagaddadavida> I've just noticed the vlc icon with the santa hat on it =) thought I was seeing things for a second
[23:25] <jelly-bean1> how do i make it so new users $HOME dir are chmod 700 so other users cant get in
[23:25] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : it won't let me drag and drop
[23:25] <mister_roboto> omar: no, i mean what EXACTLY did you type. there is no such package "google-gadgets"
[23:25] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : rhythmbox says there are 2 songs on there, but they dont show up on the ipod, and i cant delete them lol
[23:26] <omar> i just added repos
[23:26] <omar> and den typed sudo apt-get install google-gadgets on terminal
[23:26]  * mister_roboto throws hands in the air
[23:26] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: sudo chown -R chris:chris /media/IPOD && sudo chmod -R 664 /media/IPOD && sudo chmod -R -x+X /media/IPOD
[23:26] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: (a bot of overkill, but ....)
[23:26] <mneptok> *bit
[23:27] <omar> ima do it ur way den
[23:27] <omar> and del dose 2repos i added
[23:27] <macman_> brb
[23:27] <mister_roboto> omar: please don't speak retard to me.   just install the right version from the regular karmic repo
[23:27] <omar> sorry XD
[23:28] <mister_roboto> omar: gtk for gnome, qt for kde
[23:28] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : it transferred the song on rhythmbox, now i gotta see if it shows up
[23:28] <omar> ok look i saw on google a guide and it said to add 2repod on resources
[23:28] <mneptok> mister_roboto: OMG WTF U R 2 FUN-E LOL ROFFLE_MAO BBQ
[23:28] <The_Thing> Halp! I reformatted my Ubuntu partition, and now I can't boot into Windows 7!
[23:28] <mister_roboto> hehe
[23:28] <omar> and then to go on terminal and do sudo apt-get install google-gadgets
[23:28] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : no it doesnt show up
[23:28] <mister_roboto> omar: you don't need to do that.  that is most likely an old guide
[23:29] <mister_roboto> omar: karmic has tons of stuff already in the repos
[23:29] <omar> ok
[23:29] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : on the forums it was saying there was a bug in 9.10 with rhythmbox and IPOD's
[23:29] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: you may need to unmount the ipod by right-clicking and choosing "unmount" before songs get transferred and appear in the iPod UI
[23:29] <omar> im using ubuntu so which chould i get
[23:29] <omar> the qt one?
[23:29] <omar> should
[23:29] <mneptok> BellinXFelon: my sister uses R-box with her iPod all the time. no issues. but she has an older model.
[23:29] <mister_roboto> omar: qt is for the kde desktop.  default ubuntu is gnome, which would be the gtk one
[23:31] <plouffe> Trying to play various movie DVDs from various programs;; get a bunch of "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block" ;; but I can open the DVD in nautilus and see the files;; so how is it an IO error?
[23:31] <omar> ok im downloading gtk one
[23:31] <macman_> can you rip an ipod with the dd command ?
[23:32] <mahngiel> is there a terminal command to find out detail on your processor?
[23:33] <alankila> mahngiel: old favorite, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:33] <mka> macman_, the term rip is different to the term clone. dd command clones.
[23:33] <losha> plouffe: seeing the file names isn't the same as actually reading the files themselves. Clean the dvd with some windex and try again using vlc....
[23:33] <coz_> mahngiel,  may cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:33] <mahngiel> thank you two kindly
[23:34] <goose[PC]> how can I get my server to run a series of commands on startup? (run a bash script as a certain user on startup)
[23:34] <mahngiel> but sadly, this isn't giving me the info i need... i'm trying to figure out the optimal temp range. and i'm spinning my wheels on Intel's site
[23:34] <CodeTBone> I have a CLI program in a .tar.lzma format....how can I run this?
[23:34] <plouffe> losha I tried several DVDs already, cleaned them, I used totem, vlc and k9copy to try to play them. Always the same error
[23:35] <goose[PC]> CodeTBone: it's compressed :p uncompress it
[23:35] <CodeTBone> I understand that, but whats the .lzma?
[23:35] <Gilos> mahngiel: you can also try sudo lshw -c cpu
[23:35] <macman_> mka:  what should i do for this ipod then
[23:35] <FunnyMan4595> I'm trying to get Ubuntu to display in higher resolution than it apparently wants to.  Graphics driver (intel) appears to be correct, but it is detecting the max resolution as 1280x800, which is way low.
[23:35] <gmcinnes> I have a drive pulled from a md array in a server that I'd like to access from an external usb drive.  When I look at it using fdisk it shows up as unpartitioned.  How can I access it?
[23:35] <losha> plouffe: then I would guess that your dvd reader is faulty....
[23:35] <goose[PC]> CodeTBone: just a type of compression
[23:35] <mka> macman_, what do you want to accomplish?
[23:36] <CodeTBone> Ah, new to me. THanks
[23:36] <BellinXFelon> mneptok : that didnt work either
[23:36] <macman_> mka:  rip all music from it
[23:36] <mahngiel> Gilos: again, nothing that will give me specific info. guess i'll just have to go to HP chat.
[23:36] <FunnyMan4595> At the moment, I'm trying to add the correct modelines to xrandr, but I can't seem to get either of the suggested tools to duplicate the existing modelines.
[23:36] <Dr_Willis> macman_:  you could dd the filessstem to a file.. but thats not going to 'rip' music from it.
[23:36] <CodeTBone> Should I extract the directory into my bin?
[23:37] <plouffe> losha that would be my second toshiba whose >
[23:37] <Dr_Willis> CodeTBone:  id make a 'work' directyory and extract it in there to see whats in it.
[23:37] <plouffe> losha that would be my second toshiba whose DVD player faults after 2 years, I guess I will just stay away from TOSHIBA then
[23:37] <CodeTBone> Its just a CLI programming calculator
[23:37] <plouffe> NO MORE TOSHIBA
[23:37] <Gilos> mahngiel:  what were you looking for that you didn't find?
[23:37] <mka> macman_, use rhythmbox or terminal
[23:38] <macman_> yea
[23:38] <macman_> im looking for a terminal command MK-BB
[23:38] <macman_> err .. mka
[23:38] <mahngiel> Gilos: processor number, specifically. that's the only thing on Intel's site that would differentiate my processor from the others on this table
[23:39] <mka> macman_, I am not used to ipods but if you plug it in, does it become mounted like a normal filesystem?
[23:39] <NamVet> I can see original desktop files etc. in terminal but they do not appear on the present desktop.
[23:39] <losha> plouffe: after 2 years of heavy use, a failure wouldn't surprised me. DVD readers contain very high precision moving part technology, much less reliable than solid state electronics. The Samsungs seem to get goot reviews on newegg...
[23:39] <macman_> mka:  yes
[23:39] <plouffe> losha I barely ever use the DVD player at all
[23:39] <CodeTBone> Whats the syntax for uncompressing at a terminal?
[23:39] <Pici> CodeTBone: uncompressing what?
[23:39] <mka> macman_, then simply copy the files to your computer
[23:40] <tlvb> Hey, Have anybody else had the problem of trying to run a program (e.g. chmod +x foo; ./foo) and had the terminal respond that the file or folder does not exist? In this case it is the etqw installer.
[23:40] <CodeTBone> A '.tar.lzma'
[23:40] <Dr_Willis> !info unp | CodeTBone
[23:40] <CodeTBone> Thanks
[23:40] <Pici> CodeTBone: unlzma file.tar.lzma   then untar file.tar
[23:40] <Pici> or that
[23:40] <Dr_Willis> CodeTBone:  im lazy and use unp :)
[23:41] <losha> plouffe: Dunno what to tell you. Some readers play various disks better than others. Er, you do have the decryption libraries installed don't you?
[23:41] <mka> macman_, you can even use terminal, I think ther is a folder named ipod_control and inside there are many folders including the one named Music whose contents are the folders you need to copy
[23:41] <woodyjlw> I get some errors on boot and wonder if I can get help with them?
[23:41] <losha> !medibuntu
[23:41] <CodeTBone> Lol does it matter whos solution I use?
[23:41] <mka> macman_, *you can even use nautilus*
[23:41] <mahngiel> Dr_Willis: 'unp' will decompress through all the levels?
[23:41] <Dr_Willis> CodeTBone:  they both work..
[23:41] <macman_> ok
[23:42] <Dr_Willis> mahngiel:  it has so far for me on everything ive tried.
[23:42] <mister_roboto> Dr_Willis: i never knew about unp!  i'm all for maximum laziness
[23:42] <macman_>  22G	Music
[23:42] <al_> any scripting gurus here? I want to impliment a rsync that runs between certain hours and stops during business hours.

[23:42] <mahngiel> Dr_Willis: that is  abeautifl thing. thanks
[23:42] <CodeTBone> I figured but who deserves more brownie points?
[23:42] <plouffe> losha I don't know what decryption libraries are for, sorry
[23:42] <Dr_Willis> CodeTBone:  i have eaten enough sweets over teh holidays
[23:42] <mister_roboto> al_: kick off your rsync at the right times using cron
[23:43] <losha> plouffe: most commercial dvds are encrypted and require decryption software to be played. See http://www.medibuntu.org
[23:43] <mka> macman_, ?
[23:43] <plouffe> losha I rarely ever use the DVD player, I install updates over the net, and I don't usually play DVDs on the computer, I just wanted to rip some scenes off the DVD to an avi
[23:43] <nomnex> Dr_Willis, how do I run unp recursively?
[23:43] <CodeTBone> Well I made like 16 9x11 pans of fudge...just so you know :P
[23:43] <plouffe> losha ok thanks, I might check it out
[23:43] <woodyjlw> Lid argument)            60.757092     ata1.00: status: {DRDYERR}
[23:43] <Dr_Willis> nomnex:  ive only ever had to do 'unp whatever'
[23:44] <nomnex> Dr_Willis, it will decompress archives in the sub-folders too?
[23:44] <mahngiel> CodeTBone: special fudge??? *yum*
[23:44]  * mahngiel licks his lips
[23:44] <losha> al_: you'll have to kill the rsync when you want it to stop. I don't think it has any feature to stop automatically at a certain time...
[23:44] <mka> plouffe, use dvd::rip to rip dvds
[23:44] <meydlo> happy new year;)
[23:44] <al_> mister_roboto: yes, but the rsync, if still running needs to be killed.....losha - exactely
[23:45] <mister_roboto> al_:  losha: huh?  it just runs to completions and stop. i use it on my wife's computer to do her backups
[23:45] <Doonz> hey guys, can someone point me towards a how-to for upon a system start up having 3 screen sessions for 3 different users
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> nomnex:  try it and see - I only use it in simple cases.
[23:45] <ratonplayer> !ot
[23:45] <mahngiel> sudo lshw-gtk
[23:45] <mister_roboto> al_: you don't want to stop the daemon if that's what you're using
[23:45] <mahngiel> bah, sorry
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> Doonz:  put the proper commands in rc.local is one way.
[23:45] <bill> anyone here know how to play streaming music from fubar.com? i could do it when i had windows but now i cant in ubuntu
[23:45] <mister_roboto> al_: rsync isn't something that continuously synchronizes stuff, if that's what you think
[23:45] <al_> mister_roboto: I am talking about rsync on a nas with a fairly slow processor. After a weekly full backup it may take 2-3 days to rsync
[23:46] <woodyjlw> Lid argument)            60.757092     ata1.00: status: {DRDYERR}       .....has anyone ever had a problem booting and see errors like this?
[23:46] <Doonz> Dr_Willis: what would be the command
[23:46] <D-coy> m4v, incas a tu madr xD
[23:46] <mister_roboto> al_: ummmm why are you doing a full backup with rsync?
[23:46] <Dr_Willis> Doonz:  i think you would have to do somthing like 'su -u bubba -c whatever &'  (not sure on that)
[23:46] <al_> mister_roboto: thats why it needs to be stopped, and "resumed"
[23:46] <NamVet> Can't access files in the PLACES folder
[23:46] <Dr_Willis> Doonz:  since things ran in rc.local get ran as root. You sould need su or sudo to switch the command tobe ran by a user
[23:46] <goose[PC]> how can I get my server to run a series of commands on startup? (run a bash script as a certain user on startup)
[23:47] <mister_roboto> anyway, you can easily just kill it with cron as well, a few minutes later or whatever
[23:47] <losha> al_: like I said, you'll have to explicitly start and stop rsync at the appropriate times. If you do it right, when you restart it, it will pick up where it left off....
[23:47] <mister_roboto> al_: anyway, you can easily just kill it with cron as well, a few minutes later or whatever. nothing about cron precludes doing that
[23:47] <seidos> NamVet: can you access PLACES from a terminal?
[23:47] <goose[PC]> also, when writing a bash script, how can I start a program with detached screen, or autodetach after startup?
[23:47] <mister_roboto> losha: actually it gracefully can handle being killed and restarting properly
[23:47] <al_> mister_roboto: I have a NAS which receives weekly full and hourly (between 9-5) incremental backups. I need to copy this data from the NAS to a USB attached disk
[23:47] <mister_roboto> losha: read the docs for it
[23:47] <mka> al_, you can create a BASH script file and create a lockfile just like vim editor is doing, and if that lockfile exists, then rsync is running and otherwise rsync is not running
[23:48] <NamVet> Yes I can
[23:48] <bill> anyone know of a plugin for firefox that will play streaming music , i used to use the windows media player plugin for firefox but cant find anything that runs on ubuntu
[23:48] <mister_roboto> rsync was DESIGNED to be safely killed and restarted
[23:48] <dino-> Having a problem with a system freshly upgraded to 9.10 and now hanging on boot.
[23:48] <seidos> NamVet: wish I could
[23:48] <xims> :-D happy new year 2010
[23:48] <hicham> i have alt+f2 switches me to tty2
[23:49] <Gilos> mahngiel:you still around?
[23:49] <dino-> Not seeing anything obvious in dmesg or /var/log/messages  Did try the dpkg repair, which found nothing to do.
[23:49] <mahngiel> Gilos: indeed
[23:49] <NamVet> don't know how to transfer personal files via terminal so I can reinstall Karmic Koala
[23:49] <al_> mister_roboto: or the other way would be some fancy script to copy the backup files, only retaining 2 weeks worth of backups immediately after the weekly full. THis will be a lot faster than rsync, THEN use rsync on the incrementals each night. Would that work?
[23:49] <psylon> Does openbox work with netbook remix?
[23:49] <mahngiel> Gilos: i'm chatting with HP support
[23:49] <dino-> Boot reports some things starting, hangs right after something about checking battery status.
[23:50] <Gilos> mahngiel: use  sudo dmidecode|less
[23:50] <seidos> NamVet: I use scp to copy personal files over a network to another ubuntu machine
[23:50] <CodeTBone> I cant get unp to unpack it
[23:50]  * seidos is ill
[23:51] <mka> bill, totem-mozilla ?
[23:51] <mister_roboto> al_: i don't think so if rsync didn't do the original full backup. but you might get something to work if you hack at it long enough :D
[23:51] <NamVet> I have a 8gb flashusb also a 40gb external hard drive
[23:51] <bill> totem ok i will try it
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> CodeTBone:  i dont recall seeing a .lzma package in AGES...
[23:51] <mahngiel> Gilos: all i get is a blank terminal... should it take long to process?
[23:51] <dino-> wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone here
[23:51] <al_> mister_roboto: oh really...I didnt know that. If it didnt put the file there, then it rejects it? stink
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> !info unlzma
[23:51] <CodeTBone> Lol
[23:52] <Gilos> mahngiel: you have to hit space bar to scroll through
[23:52] <mister_roboto> al_: i don't know for sure and cannot say without trying it
[23:52] <mahngiel> there's nothing to scroll through, the thing's blank. let me kill it.
[23:52] <CodeTBone> man Says to run without args to see supported formats and when ran nothing outputs
[23:52] <Gilos> mahngiel "sudo dmidecode|less"
[23:53] <NamVet> seidos, sorry to hear your ill. real bummer during the holidays.
[23:53] <drunkncrew> i think this is an easy question, hopefully it has an easy answer as well. I am installing wimax drivers, and the tutorial i'm following says to type " --sysconfdir=/etc " in my current directory where the directory "/etc" exist. However when I type that command into terminal I get "No such file or directory" am I typing something wrong in the command?
[23:53] <mka> NamVet, you can use try to "cp -rvi ~ /media/USBDEVICE/"
[23:53] <nomnex> how can I fix my xchat log (see: http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/36153/xxxx_2010_01_01_08_30_41_dDf6J3.png - reuploaded
[23:53] <al_> mister_roboto: right. but you can see what the advantage of doing it that way (copy/synch combo) would be right? Youd complete the weekly full backup quickly, then leave rsync to take care of the hourly incrementals....
[23:53] <mahngiel> that worked
[23:53] <al_> mister_roboto: if it worked....
[23:53] <philabole> ok why won't my ubuntu conect to the internet?
[23:53] <axon> hello
[23:53] <NamVet> okay I'll give it a try
[23:53] <axon> good new year
[23:53] <NamVet> TY
[23:54] <axon> it's 0:53 in germany
[23:54] <axon> so
[23:54] <mister_roboto> al_: yes, i understand why you want to go that route. just never tried it and am not sure of the behavior
[23:54] <drunkncrew> or, can anyone tell me what the command " sysconfdir=/etc " does?
[23:54] <Gilos> mahngiel: great... otherwise you were going to have to pop the case.  here's where I found it.  http://www.secguru.com/article/finding_hardware_details_your_linux_machine_without_using_screw_driver
[23:54] <CodeTBone> Decompressed the lzma with unlzma but not finding an untar prog
[23:55] <mahngiel> Gilos: thanks. too bad this idiot with HP isn't so apt
[23:55] <NamVet> Thanks for the help. Leaving now.
[23:56] <mahngiel> Mike **** : I would I would appreciate if you please clarify the issue a little more.
[23:56]  * mahngiel laughs
[23:56] <mister_roboto> al_: it looks like you can use the --checksum option to compare checksums, in whcih case i can see it working
[23:56] <axon> i moved the partitions a little bit ... now my computer second computer got problems to boot, ... in fact he can't mount the home directory ... i know that this is now on /dev/sda5 and not longer on /dev/sda6 ... how do i tell this ubuntu?
[23:57] <munk> I mounted an iso in nautilus now what path will I find it in terminal
[23:57] <losha> drunkncrew: that isn't actually a command by itself. It looks like a flag that's belongs to a larger command? Any idea what that might be?
[23:57] <Dr_Willis> axon:  the uuid may have changed.  you may need to correct the /etc/fstab file.
[23:57] <munk> nautilus says its in archive:///blabla/
[23:57] <Dr_Willis> !uuid | axon
[23:57] <al_> mister_roboto: right. As you say, I need to have a fiddle :-)
[23:58] <Dr_Willis> munk:  it might be in /home/username/.gvfs/SOMETHING
[23:58] <axon> !Dr_Willis , ubottu : thanks a lot i'll try this
[23:58] <drx2> How do you get past the "starting up" after moving a SATA Ubuntu drive from a P4 system to a Core i5 system?
[23:58] <munk> Dr_Willis, THANKS!
[23:58] <mister_roboto> al_: it would be easy to test that. just copy one (big) file, rsync using checksum and verify that it doesn't transfer it
[23:58] <micz> happy new year
[23:59] <al_> mister_roboto: exactely
[23:59] <wastrel> hjeppy nov jar
[23:59] <philabole> dekenx: any idea why i can't connet to net with 9.04
[23:59] <micz> 12pm happy new year from london
[23:59] <henrique> Good night and happy new year. I'm a very new user and need help getting something back in my menu bar can anyone help me please ?
