[19:18] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, yeah, that's MPT's new notification toy.  Looks great compared to Intrepid, but has issues.  I've had issues at conferences where AVAHI notices can take 20-30 *MINUTES* to flow through the queue.
[19:18] <IdleOne> hemanth: what are you trying to do?
[19:18] <NoelJB> I've patched around that particular issue, but the patch hasn't been accepted into source control so far.
[19:19] <giova_> hi
[19:19] <jatt> does gstreamer work on jaunty?
[19:19] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, one thing to look at is APPEND vs REPLACE for your messages.
[19:19] <user1_>  have kubuntu 6.10 dgy. how can i upgrade it to the latest.(the option of uqgrade doesnot appear when i fetch updates in  package manager)>

[19:19] <dual> I've been using Vista and Ubuntu through Wubi for a while and it works great. Now I'm soon going to install Windows 7. Can I copy over the whole wubi/ubuntu-installation over to Win7 and use it exactly like I do now?
[19:20] <djalmafilho> NoelJB, how can do append messagens?
[19:20] <slide> Is there anyway to have a system blocklist? (for bittorrent)?
[19:21] <asg> slide: if you want to block an IP address, you could use iptables to do that. Check out the ufw (uncomplicated firewall package).
[19:22] <dual> slide: I think transmission has an option to enable IP blocking
[19:22] <slide> Yea I'm not using transmission =\
[19:22] <slide> using deluge-daemon

[19:22] <slariwatknitsu> hey, i have a question about video conversion.
[19:23] <slariwatknitsu> I have some motion jpeg AVI's from my camera that I need to convert to divx.
[19:23] <shamm> slariwatknitsu: add to your sources.list I think
[19:23] <slariwatknitsu> I know there must be a ton of solutions, but I am looking for the absolute quickest, easiest way to do this.  Any suggestions?

[19:26] <zpeanut> -x / 2 = 3 can anyone tell me if this is possible
[19:27] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, there is info on the wiki related to it.
[19:27] <djalmafilho> NoelJB, Could you send me the url?
[19:27] <marines> zpeanut: if x = -6 yes :)
[19:28] <shamm> zpeanut: are we doing your homework?
[19:28] <zpeanut> thanks
[19:28] <marines> or i didn't understand what you meant ;]

[19:28] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/notify-osd/+bug/337394 and related links.
[19:29] <djalmafilho> NoelJB, thanks
[19:29] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, there is a whole section on "Merging notifications", which might be of interest to you.
[19:30] <djalmafilho> NoelJB, ok
[19:32] <Puterputter> I need help getting broadcom 4318 wireless working on gateway mx7527, new install of ubuntu
[19:33] <maladmin> hi all, can anyone please help me identify why my external HD has stopped working? It used to work perfectly
[19:33] <NoelJB> djalmafilho, code samples attached to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDevelopmentGuidelines
[19:33] <Grosvenor> My video card will only run in 2.6.24-24-generic kernel, and not in 2.6.24-24-server kernel. If i remove the other (sudo apt-get remove linux-image-[version]-generic linux-image-[version]-generic), will ubuntu crash?
[19:34] <aksci> what else can i use instead of 'auto' in "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" ??? i'm confused! should i use alc888 the driver or ICH9 my model no!???
[19:34] <node357> 500 OOPS: cannot locate user entry:ftpsecure
[19:34] <node357> :(
[19:35] <NoelJB> maladmin, well, have you identified that the external HD hasn't died?  I have many of them, and in one case, the power supply went bad.  In two others, WD drives died repeatedly.  In other cases, could be a software config issue.
[19:35] <maladmin> NoelJB: good question, its only 6mths old so should be good
[19:36] <Spike1506> i was wondering if it was possible to increase the bass of rythmbox under ubuntu
[19:36] <Grosvenor> My video card will only run in 2.6.24-24-generic kernel, and not in 2.6.24-24-server kernel. If i remove the other (sudo apt-get remove linux-image-[version]-generic linux-image-[version]-generic), will ubuntu crash?
[19:37] <asg> Grosvenor: probably not but your video card may not work so you won't see anything on the screen.
[19:37] <majnoon> !ot
[19:38] <majnoon> that for ME
[19:38] <Grosvenor> is there a way to switch to generic for grub startup?
[19:38] <Grosvenor> (startup default)
[19:38] <wlangford> Say I'm trying to sudo something from a script (that is for my own personal use only) and I don't want it to ask for my password.  Is there a way to do that?
[19:38] <NoelJB> maladmin, try looking up to another system to test.  View logs and use udevadm monitor --env to see what happens as it mounts.
[19:38] <cfedde> wlangford: sudo supports a nopassword mode.
[19:39] <NoelJB> maladmin, if you are connecting via eSATA, you could try using smartctl.
[19:39] <asg> Grosvenor: change the 'default        0' to the position of the kernel you want by default in the list (i.e., if it's the second, use 'default       1'
[19:39] <asg> Grosvenor: in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[19:39] <Grosvenor> thanks!
[19:39] <NoelJB> maladmin, and no, unfortunately, "only 6 months old" is not a good indicator.
[19:40] <Grosvenor> it says "permission denied"
[19:40] <Grosvenor> even under root
[19:40] <NoelJB> Grosvenor, you must be root to edit it.
[19:40] <stefg> Spike1506: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 but you might find it easier to just use a decent player (audacious, songbird ...)
[19:40] <Grosvenor> sudo bash, then /boot/grub/menu.lst
[19:41] <NoelJB> edit it., e.g., gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst.
[19:41] <NoelJB> it isn't an executable.
[19:41] <Clooluss> hi. Anyone know how to get VLC to switch on the graphic equaliser by default when it is opened?

[19:42] <Rianth> Whats the best room to ask about sound troubles?
[19:43] <shamm> !ask | rianth
[19:43] <asg> Rianth: here is a good place to start.
[19:43] <Rianth> I have no sound on my panasonic toughbook in ubuntu but I have it on windows xp
[19:43] <stefg> Spike1506: be aware that there's no gui yet for setting system wide EQ..you have to guess values, re-login to check, correct them in the config-file , save, re-login.... takes some audio-engineer craftsmanship
[19:44] <datenritter> hi! how did people get the idea to use ubuntu as a server os actually? (seriously want to know this, no rant intended.)
[19:44] <simion314> hi, i can't run a binary file ,strange error http://pastebin.com/d5ac65a1d  , same thing if i run as root
[19:44] <Pirate_Hunter> is it possible to setup ssh to listen on two ports at the same time through the file sshd.conf? If so do I out the new port next to the other one or in a different line?
[19:45] <wlangford> cfedde: How do I do that?
[19:45] <werti> simion314 ./qt-sdk-linux-x86-opensource-2009.03.1.bin: Permission denied )
[19:45] <werti> try as root
[19:45] <asg> datenritter: because the LTS releases provide guaranteed support at a defined level and optimizations specific to that workload.
[19:45] <werti> simion314 use sudo
[19:46] <stefg> simion314: run 'sudo bash qt-sdk-linux-x86-opensource-2009.03.1.bin'
[19:46] <cfedde> wlangford: the sudoers file supports a syntax that allows an admin to design a policy that permits some users to not use a password.
[19:46] <cfedde> wlangford: there is an example in the /etc/sudoers file.
[19:46] <datenritter> asg: LTS = Long Term Support ? what's wrong with debian stable then?
[19:47] <wlangford> Hm.  That'll make a security hole, correct?  Is there a way to only allow that user to perform a single command with it?
[19:47] <Rianth> so about no sound? I see pulse audio load and I see the sound meter move when I run speaker test but I hear no sound
[19:47] <NW2190> hey, i keep getting an error message that says "invalid boot.ini file" when i try to boot from an ubuntu 9.04 cd.  Anyone know how to get around that?
[19:47] <simion314> stefg: http://pastebin.com/d274508c3  but that is the problem, i do not want to run it with bash, it is not a script
[19:47] <wlangford> Er, a single command w/o a password.
[19:47] <stefg> !debian | datenritter
[19:48] <Tsukimio> e
[19:48] <werti> simion314 use: sudo ./qt-sdk-linux-x86-opensource-2009.03.1.bin
[19:48] <asg> datenritter: previously, nothing but more recently, the timetable has become a little more chaotic (at least for me. My servers all run debian but I don't know when a release is going to happen and so cannot easily identify my upgrade paths .. we are talking about hundreds of servers, not just a few so that takes quite a bit of time.)
[19:48] <NoelJB> Rianth, you might need to make sure that your internal speakers are enabled in the mixer.
[19:48] <NoelJB> Rianth, alsamixer is a common tool to resolve the issue.
[19:48] <NW2190> the cd works on my laptop but gives the invalid boot.ini on my desktop.
[19:49] <stefg> simion314: i guessed that it might be an incompatibility between bash and dash. but that's not the case obviously. what does the qt website say ?
[19:49] <Rianth> alsamixer show pulseaudio, not muted max volume
[19:49] <Spike1506> stefg, i think ill just switch from music player
[19:49] <Pirate_Hunter> is it possible to setup ssh to listen on two ports at the same time through the file sshd.conf? If so do I out the new port next to the other one or in a different line?
[19:49] <werti> i think no
[19:50] <stefg> Spike1506: good idea... i think banshee will be the next default player in 9.10 any way

[19:56] <Stormx2> Hi. I'm getting annoying semitransparent notices from Twitter, but I can't see any open twitter apps. How can I find out what they are and turn them off? (and preferably turn off this semitransparent nonsense once and for all)
[19:57] <NoelJB> need_help, "attrib +d" ??  typo?
[19:57] <need_help> NoelJB it's chattr +D !
[19:57] <Stormx2> kfjds, I usually skip the uid and gid stuff. I haven't tried with OOo, but gedit has no complaints
[19:58] <keny2304> hola a tod@s
[19:58] <datenritter> asg:  i don't see your problem. afaik debian hunts for stability, ubuntu has different primary goals. why are release dates important to you? can't you just decide when to change from oldstable to stable?
[19:58] <keny2304> que tal se os da manejar ubuntu
[19:58] <datenritter> asg: or are you dependant on certain software versions somehow?
[19:58] <keny2304> alguno me da algunos consejos?
[19:58] <bucky> datenritter: they said the same thing when mandrake forked off of redhat
[19:59] <NoelJB> need_help, `man chattr` -- see the 4th paragraph under Attributes
[19:59] <datenritter> bucky: so...?
[19:59] <sofiankrt> I want to change my resolution, but I can't see the particular resolution I want in the gtk app. What should I do?
[19:59] <kfjds> Stormx2: same result without uid&gid
[20:00] <wlangford> Gah, I never use vim.  How do I add text in it?
[20:00] <asg> datenritter: the problem is that oldstable becomes unsupported after 18 months or when a new release occurs. I'm often making decisions many years out and that can be a problem. That's all I'm saying.. It may not be a problem for you.
[20:00] <need_help> NoelJB :P actually i check that but i need more info
[20:00] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, man xrandr
[20:00] <Rianth> in the volume control I can see my device AD198x Analog moving when I run speaker test
[20:00] <bucky> datenritter: you haven't given me a compelling reason why there shouldn't be yet another linux distribution... go make one of your own for all i care
[20:00] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: I've tried xrandr, but I can't figure out what my "output" is
[20:00] <Rianth> just dont hear anything
[20:01] <Stormx2> sofiankrt, do you know what video card you have?
[20:01] <keny2304> alguien en español
[20:01] <asg> !es
[20:01] <sofiankrt> Stormx2: nope. I'm on a new computer, and I just installed Ubuntu with Wubi, and the resolution is too small
[20:02] <fakeer> How can I get rid of this? :"Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds.  If you have not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or that you may be out of diskspace.  Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem".
[20:02] <|Brenden|> i want to install a gui on ubuntu serrver how would i do that?
[20:02] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, did you try xrandr -s ${width}x${height}, e.g., xrandr -s 1440x900 ?
[20:03] <xor1> Hi there.
[20:03] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, as appropriate for your display device.
[20:03] <datenritter> asg: no flamewar intended. from what i just read, every release of ubuntu becomes unsupported after 18 months as well?
[20:03] <iceroot> |Brenden|: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop    for gnome
[20:03] <iceroot> |Brenden|: xubuntu-desktop for xfce4 and kubuntu-desktop for kde
[20:03] <datenritter> bucky: actually i ignore most distributions for simplicity in life. ;)
[20:03] <Rianth> oh, I get a system beep from my headphones
[20:04] <NoelJB> datenritter, no, there are LTS releases with years of support.
[20:04] <datenritter> bucky: but a friend of mine actually cares for his own one. thin he's the only user. ^^
[20:04] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: it says it's not available
[20:04] <asg> datenritter: except the LTS releases
[20:04] <datenritter> ah, ok, i see
[20:04] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: though I did the new mode thing
[20:04] <jimy> hi, i need some help.. I can't share my internet connection with a windowsxp client
[20:04] <xor> Is anyone having any problems seeing movies at apple.com/trailers?
[20:05] <Rianth> ok, so I have sound on my headphones.... now to get it to my speakers....
[20:05] <xor> I keep getting this message telling me I need a text/html decoder plugin.
[20:05] <xor> When Ubuntu searches for it, it never finds it.
[20:05] <stefg> datenritter: the usual desktop release has a 18 month lifecycle. LTS releases are supported 3 years on the desktop, 5 years on the server. Every 2 years a new LTS is released. That's mor predictable than debian and gives you 2 years of time to plan your upgrade path
[20:05] <datenritter> stefg: thx
[20:06] <danbhfive> xor: I think that is just for the latest movies, ie they aren't posted yet and the server is 404
[20:06] <bucky> datenritter: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu
[20:06] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, what is the native resolution of your display?
[20:06] <xor> danbhfive: I tried with older movies and the result was the same
[20:06] <MHz128> hiya
[20:07] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: I'm not sure; it's a friend's computer. Though the monitor looks like 1024x768 would be ok for it
[20:07] <xor> danbhfive: I actually tried with movies I'd already seen, and I got the same message.
[20:07] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, xrandr -s 1024x768 ought to work, then.
[20:08] <simion314> stefg: i moved the executable file to my root partitions, it runs from there, i have read and write rights to the other partition but it seams i can;t run apps from there, i need to change my /etc/fstab

[20:08] <xor> Is anyone here able to see the trailers at apple.com/trailers with Ubuntu 9.04?
[20:08] <xendon> how is the ubuntu offtopic called ?

[20:09] <odder> !es | keny2304
[20:09] <stefg> simion314: check dmesg ..  you might have a file system panic resulting in read only mount on that drive (but you might as well just have screwed permissiions infstab)

[20:10] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, if you just type xrandr, it should give you available options
[20:10] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: problem is, they're all too low
[20:10] <NoelJB> Really?  What kind of computer?  Which video driver?
[20:10] <ryanc`> Does ubuntu support doing a new install to an existing setup with raid and lvm?
[20:11] <danbhfive> xor: yeah, it looks like the site is broken
[20:11] <nsahoo> there was a flag that if you pass to bash it prints every command executed. Helpful for debugging. Anyone knows of it?
[20:11] <ryanc`> the installer seems to choke on my software RAID1 config
[20:12] <oxygenfad> anyone have experience installing PSubuntu on to ps3 ?
[20:12] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: I don't know, I've only been using it for a couple of days, as it's a friend's computer. But on XP, it uses 1024x768, which looks just about ok, and I tried Puppy with 1280x1024, and it worked. Although it didn't look very good

[20:14] <oxygenfad> Hmmm ... installed this twice aswell. I wonder what I'm doing wrong at install level ...

[20:15] <NoelJB> {[Aaron]}, there ought to be a firefox-3.5 package.  But it is not the default for jaunty.
[20:15] <th0r> iceroot: well, I have no experience with raid, but the numbers in (hd0,0) are one less than the drive and partition, so 0,0 would be sda1, 0,1 sda2, 1,0 sdb1, under normal circumstances
[20:15] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: anything I can do?
[20:16] <bucky> oxygenfad: sudo -s   doesn't work ?
[20:16] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, without knowing some of the details I asked you, I can't give you much help.

[20:16] <flanders> I am running 9.04. I installed the gdm-guest-session package, via Synaptic. However, when I select "Guest session" from the switch-user panel, all I get are a few monitor blinks, and then it is at the lockscreen view, awaiting my password. When I tried to run the command from a terminal, the same thing happens, with this message: http://pastebin.com/d4f32285a
[20:16] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: isn't there a way to manually change the resolution to any arbitrary number I choose?
[20:17] <flanders> Does anyone know how to make the guest session work in 9.04?
[20:17] <{[Aaron]}> NoelJB: I performed a 'sudo apt-cache search firefox 3.5' in the terminal and found a package for it, I guess I should have tried that first. It's about to finish downloading, will it replace my existing version of firefox?
[20:18] <NoelJB> no, as I recall it will add.  you'll have both.
[20:18] <MaGicMaX> anyone know a good MP3 and ogg Tag editor and playlist creator?
[20:18] <{[Aaron]}> NoelJB: How can I uninstall the original firefox that's on my system?
[20:19] <Guest37903> hi
[20:19] <NoelJB> {[Aaron]}, http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/07/installing-firefox-3-5-the-right-way-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html
[20:19] <Guest37903> What's the difference between ubuntu server with gui and ubuntu ?
[20:20] <Guest30522> man my damn umbuntu will not let me get updates without crashing
[20:20] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: can't I do something with Xorg?
[20:20] <richard_ma> Guest37903, The Kernel
[20:20] <Guest30522> ya
[20:20] <Guest37903> ah
[20:20] <asg> {[Aaron]}: be aware that the jaunty 3.5 firefox is a beta, not the final release.
[20:20] <Guest30522> kvm crash
[20:20] <iceroot> th0r: thx for the explanation with 0,0 and sda1 and so on. it was hd0,0. because of you, i am now booting windows... :-)
[20:20] <azlon> how can i list my bluetooth devices to see if they are enabled?
[20:20] <flanders> Does anyone use "gdm-guest-session" here?
[20:20] <{[Aaron]}> Ok thanks for the NoelJB & asg.
[20:20] <th0r> iceroot: that isn't my fault <smile>
[20:20] <oxygenfad> bucky, sudo-s doesn't work
[20:21] <HobbleAlong> Guest37903: The main difference is the default installed software.
[20:21] <werti> oxygenfad sudo -s ?)
[20:21] <iceroot> th0r: oh, it is! but its only my gameloader aka win xp and not vista or 7. so its not to hard for me :)
[20:21] <oxygenfad> http://psubuntu.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2335
[20:21] <Guest37903> so should I put ubuntu if i want a server and also a gui?
[20:21] <th0r> iceroot: ok....so long as you don't hold me to blame!
[20:21] <Guest37903> or install ubuntu server then install the gui
[20:21] <Guest30522> so i get a fail on the boot up of kvm modual
[20:22] <iceroot> th0r: we will see :)
[20:22] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, you can try, but you'll be wanting some details.
[20:22] <oxygenfad> If you look at that link, there seems to be a solution. "I used the rescue kernel " where do I find this ? I do not know what it is
[20:22] <Guest30522> what is that?
[20:22] <{[Aaron]}> One last thing, what is the terminal command for removing any unused packages?
[20:22] <bucky> oxygenfad: did you put a space between sudo and -s  ?
[20:22] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: where do I get those from?
[20:22] <NoelJB> dpkg --purge ${package}
[20:22] <bucky> oxygenfad: try sudo su
[20:22] <oxygenfad> bucky, yes
[20:22] <bucky> oxygenfad: try sudo su
[20:22] <richard_ma> Guest37903, u can do that
[20:22] <wlangford> sudo su, nice.
[20:22] <aksci> sound from my machine's front jack works only if i put "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" and not if i use model=3stack or ref or even intel! but when using auto, the sound is very low!
[20:22] <oxygenfad> "user not in the sudoers file"
[20:22] <Guest30522> well you guys are no help
[20:22] <iceroot> {[Aaron]}: sudo apt-get remove packetname
[20:22] <oxygenfad> dont say that
[20:23] <oxygenfad> Guest
[20:23] <th0r> {[Aaron]}: sudo apt-get autoremove?
[20:23] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, well, I've been asking you for them.  you could start by looking at the back or bottom of the computer, and finding the model #.  You could use lspci to find out what kind of hardware you have.
[20:23] <bucky> oxygenfad: try /join #ubuntu-ps3
[20:23] <wlangford> bucky: xD
[20:23] <iceroot> {[Aaron]}: ah sorry, unsued (dependencies) is sudo apt-get autoremove
[20:23] <asg> Guest30522: why do you want a GUI on a server?
[20:23] <Guest30522> i cant update my system im afrad it gouing to crash all over
[20:23] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: exactly what kind of information do I need?
[20:23] <oxygenfad> I did, the room is idle hehehe.
[20:23] <{[Aaron]}> Thanks.
[20:23] <richard_ma> {[Aaron]}, sudo apt-get purge $packagename
[20:23] <azlon> how can i list my bluetooth devices to see if they are enabled?
[20:24] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, is it a brand name computer or a DIY?  If the former, WHAT MODEL IS IT?
[20:24] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: it's DIY
[20:24] <Rianth> whats the sound manager in gnome, that starts by defualt
[20:24] <bucky> oxygenfad: apparently none of the 1350 users in this channel use psubuntu
[20:24] <sofiankrt> richard_ma: what does "purge" do?
[20:25] <iceroot> sofiankrt: remove the program AND the config
[20:25] <asg> sofiankrt: removes the package and all configuration files as well.
[20:25] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, then see if you can find the model of the display device and of the graphics card.
[20:25] <Pirate_Hunter> how would i go about deleting a rule based on this example sudo ufw allow proto tcp from <IP_ADDRESS> to any port 22?
[20:25] <Guest30522> no shit
[20:25] <need_help> can someone explain for me about dirsync? please mean if i write in this disk ! it will be synchronous with whom? thx alot
[20:25] <Guest30522> is their no virus protection for this os?
[20:26] <Guest30522> all i got is a fire wall
[20:26] <iceroot> Guest30522: there is but you dont need
[20:26] <lanzelloth> Guest30522, there's virtually no virus
[20:26] <Guest30522> why is that?
[20:26] <sofiankrt> NoelJB: the monitor is "Discovery". How do I get info about the graphics card?
[20:26] <asg> Pirate_Hunter: ufw delete ...
[20:26] <iceroot> Guest30522: because linux is safe
[20:26] <Guest30522> huh
[20:26] <Guest30522> interesting
[20:26] <iceroot> Guest30522: and noone is using linux so there is no motivation for writing viruses
[20:26] <asg> Guest30522: there is clamav if you wish to have virus scanning
[20:26] <NoelJB> need_help, http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0205.3/0601.html
[20:26] <wlangford> Because the majority of users use Windows.  Why hit 1 out of 50 when you could hit 49 out of 50? (Also the "safe" thing) (My numbers are for the sake of example)
[20:26] <Guest30522> becaz of the way we get software?
[20:27] <tonii> 21:26 < iceroot> Guest30522: because linux is safe
[20:27] <need_help> NoelJB thx :)
[20:27] <lanzelloth> what do you do if an external hdd won't mount automatically
[20:27] <tonii> damn copy-paste
[20:27] <bucky> oxygenfad: did you use only lower case letters for your username?
[20:27] <iceroot> tonii: :)
[20:27] <wlangford> Umm...lanzelloth do you know how it connects?
[20:27] <tonii> anywho, Linux is only as safe as you make it.
[20:27] <wlangford> Which port?
[20:27] <wlangford> *not port, device.
[20:27] <lanzelloth> wlangford, usb
[20:27] <maladmin> lanzelloth -- IN MY CASE BUY A NEW ONE
[20:27] <Guest30522> well why is my system failing to boot up right after updating it?
[20:27] <lanzelloth> wlangford, umm will lspci show which usb?
[20:28] <iceroot> !details | Guest30522
[20:28] <wlangford> It might.  I'm not actually running Ubuntu at this moment.
[20:28] <Guest30522> evrything gos good but the kvm  fails
[20:28] <maladmin> i always found the easiest way was tail -f /var/log/syslog
[20:28] <sofiankrt> how do I change my resolution to any arbitrary number that I choose?
[20:28] <wlangford> iceroot: That's HILARIOUS.
[20:28] <lanzelloth> maladmin, no it's always worked it just doesn't auto mount this one time
[20:28] <sofiankrt> by number, I mean ####x####
[20:28] <asg> sofiankrt: xrandr
[20:28] <wlangford> lanzelloth: It might.  I can't check at the moment. (Not booted into ubuntu)
[20:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Stormx2: check with top or htop
[20:28] <NoelJB> sofiankrt, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=129379&postcount=21
[20:29] <cole> hello, i'm new . . .

[20:29] <alexrock> HELLO
[20:29] <Pirate_Hunter> asg:  yeah thanks

[20:29] <Graham_> Hi all. hope someone can help me. I've installed raid 0 using alternate cd. Built raid drive ok. got to end of install where I'm sposed to not reboot but to reinstall grub. problem is, all commands are not recognised. its lke its lost the path maybe.  Anyone got any idea's?
[20:29] <NoelJB> lanzelloth, what do the logs say when you try?  also, you can use udevadm monitor --env to watch things happen as it tries
[20:30] <th0r> Guest30522: that is why some of us won't answer....you obviously showed up with an attitude...and I don't need people venting on me while I am trying to help
[20:30] <lanzelloth> wlangford, NoelJB maladmin  oh wait it's mounted now, I guess something just got delayed
[20:30] <alexrock> OLA
[20:30] <lanzelloth> NoelJB, wlangford still interested how to do it manually tho
[20:30] <wlangford> lanzelloth: Okay, that's strange, but as long as it works.
[20:30] <cole> yay, more people
[20:30] <wlangford> Hm.
[20:30] <wlangford> I can't remember the syntax on mount.
[20:30] <edbian> cole: Do you need ubuntu help?
[20:31] <edbian> wlangford: "sudo mount /device /place/you/want/it"
[20:31] <cole> no, well not yet
[20:31] <edbian> cole: Really?  Your install works perfectly?? :)
[20:31] <Stormx2> cole, don't worry, you will ;)
[20:31] <wlangford> edbian: Yeah, thought so, but wanted to check before I gave them something wrong. =]
[20:31] <L0ndy> How do i report UDP Attacks
[20:31] <edbian> wlangford: That's it! :)
[20:31] <cole> boogala boogala
[20:31] <wlangford> Cool.
[20:31] <cole> hot
[20:32] <NoelJB> L0ndy, to your ISP?
[20:32] <asg> L0ndy: depends on the attacks. Your ISP is a good start
[20:32] <L0ndy> hmm
[20:32] <L0ndy> it happens like everyday on port 44705
[20:32] <wlangford> Weird.
[20:32] <syntax> sudo syntax :)
[20:32] <lanzelloth> edbian, how do I check which device is which
[20:32] <NoelJB> L0ndy, or just got straight to the source of all internet problems: MICROSOFT and their crap OS.
[20:32] <L0ndy> someone from poland just got me
[20:32] <asg> L0ndy: at the same exact time?
[20:32] <__lupo__> does anybody used iphone 3g connection in ubuntu (I mean iphone tethering)
[20:32] <cole> i'm lost in lala land with a monkey strapped to my leg, what do i do?
[20:32] <edbian> lanzelloth: Look at the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
[20:32] <L0ndy> lol NoelJB
[20:32] <nava2> How do I increase the size of a partition using unallocated space?
[20:33] <edbian> lanzelloth: If you still can't figure it out look at gparted
[20:33] <wlangford> lanzelloth: if you want mounted disks, "mount"
[20:33] <wlangford> *devices not disks
[20:33] <Stormx2> cole, donate whatever it is you're smoking to me? ;)
[20:33] <L0ndy> should  i ask for a ip change?
[20:33] <Stormx2> L0ndy, do you use that port for anything?
[20:33] <L0ndy> no
[20:33] <L0ndy> idk if its open or not
[20:33] <Stormx2> Well, can't you just block it at your router?
[20:34] <asg> L0ndy: you could use iptables (or ufw) and just block it. If the traffic is using more bandwidth than you are comfortable with, contact your ISP.
[20:34] <Stormx2> Unless it's actually overheating your hardware :S
[20:34] <L0ndy> i dont see a place where is says block
[20:34] <Stormx2> Well most routers block all ports by default (for incoming connections)
[20:34] <nava2> How do I increase the size of a partition using unallocated space? using GParted
[20:34] <tonii> cole: while(monkey+leg==1) {smash monkeys head with sledgehammer};
[20:34] <Graham_> Can anyone help? I've just about had enough of the hassle - been battling with it now for hours and hours.   Last step is sling the pc into the garden.
[20:34] <NoelJB> L0ndy, see also http://isc.sans.org/port.html?port=44705
[20:34] <cole> how do delete one os of a 2 os computer and have the extra space as storage for the other os
[20:34] <lars> hi all, i've a really noob questione about partimage. I can pass from an option to another with a the tab key... but i don't know how to select what i want. when i't time to pass from a screen to another it accept the enter, not selecting intermediate option
[20:35] <maladmin> Graham_: i can open the window for you
[20:35] <Stormx2> cole, I suggest you use GParted
[20:35] <NoelJB> L0ndy, as a best practice, I block everything I don't intend to have open.
[20:35] <FrozenFire> Does anyone know what the name of the key would be to bind the play/pause key on my keyboard to play-pause in VLC? (vlc --key-play-pause 'key')
[20:35] <L0ndy> how
[20:35] <Graham_> Hi mal, sorry, don't understand.
[20:35] <Stormx2> cole, if you're new to ubuntu, check the guides for installing software
[20:35] <cole> lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
[20:35] <maladmin> Graham_: whats your problem?
[20:35] <wlangford> cole, I would also backup the partition you're erasing, just in case.
[20:35] <edbian> cole: Stop that
[20:35] <Rianth> does pulseaudio need me to be added to a group other then pulse-rt?
[20:35] <Graham_> Hi all. hope someone can help me. I've installed raid 0 using alternate cd. Built raid drive ok. got to end of install where I'm sposed to not reboot but to reinstall grub. problem is, all commands are not recognised. its lke its lost the path maybe.  Anyone got any idea's?
[20:36] <lanzelloth> edbian, wlangford ok cool
[20:36] <Stormx2> Graham_, so, the installer hangs?
[20:36] <maladmin> what command are you entering? are you specifying the complete path?
[20:36] <wlangford> Graham_: I figure you tried this, but does help work? (Not being rude, serious question)
[20:36] <Stormx2> Or are you at a GRUB prompt?
[20:36] <nava2> How do I increase the size of a partition using unallocated space? using GParted
[20:36] <Graham_> No, everything installs ok, but there's a known bug with raid, it only puts grub only onto one of the raid disks.
[20:37] <lanzelloth> nava2, isn't the option there?
[20:37] <maladmin> gparted is quite straight forward i seem to remember, just drag the partition to fill the space
[20:37] <Stormx2> Sounds like a showstopper, Graham_.
[20:37] <Graham_> so instructions say to drop to command prompt and install grub there. but no commands recognised. not su, sudo, grub etc.
[20:37] <Stormx2> Graham_, you may well be dropped into a GRUB prompt, rather than BASH?
[20:37] <nava2> It won't let me makeit bigger into that unallocated space
[20:37] <maladmin> is the space before or after the partition?
[20:38] <majnoon> can some one look here ?? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/417154
[20:38] <Graham_> I've tried entering the grub comamnds, still not recognised.
[20:38] <lanzelloth> nava2, but the empty space has to be right after the old partition I think, and if it's a primary partition you must have < 3 primaries, or it must be in extended or something
[20:38] <Graham_> Insta ll appears to go perfect.
[20:40] <cole> hey, um, i installed GNUsound but when you press its icon, it logs you out.
[20:40] <Graham_> naturally, it won't reboot with the grub issue, and unable to resolve it with no commands recognised.
[20:40] <nava2> lanzelloth: I don't get it, I can't touch it.
[20:40] <lanzelloth> does hibernation work?
[20:40] <Graham_> Yep, a total showstopper. gotta be a way to sort it.
[20:40] <subcool> jorge - its a hacking OS
[20:40] <Stormx2> Graham_, if you can't suss it out from the installer side, you might want to boot a live CD and install grub from that
[20:40] <borup> someone who can help me installing broadcom B43 wireless driver? I tried just to install it, but then ""Sorry, the Jockey backend crashed. Please file a bug at:   ubuntu-bug jockey-common Trying to recover by restarting backend."" I'm pretty sure it's the homepage that is down so I can't download it
[20:41] <subcool> ops- screen didnt scrool
[20:41] <Graham_> But the live cd doesn't include the support for raid.
[20:41] <subcool> Hey, i was looking for some hep mounting a NTFS drive. I receive and error, and i need to force it to mount.
[20:41] <Stormx2> cole: Are you just making questions up? You've asked a couple now and not responded to answers
[20:41] <NoelJB> Graham_, and how you know why I don't like any RAID that isn't real (aka HARDWARE) RAID.  :-)
[20:41] <Stormx2> subcool, boot into windows, then do a clean reboot. You may need to do it twice.
[20:42] <Graham_> Yep. lol. but gotta try to get it sorted. doing my box it also. lol
[20:42] <DV1Band> hiya
[20:42] <subcool> Stormx2: i cant boot - krn error something
[20:42] <whodis> Hey guys I just bought an mbp and moved to college. Im connected to the internet via an ethernet port and i am assigned a public ip. Does anyone know why i am able to see peoples itunes libraries and things in other dorms if i am given a public ip? Thanks
[20:42] <subcool> i forgot, i just know i cant boot.
[20:42] <Stormx2> subcool: Into windows? Or at all?
[20:42] <lanzelloth> nava2, can you post screenshot of gparted?
[20:42] <Graham_> I could try fake raid. see how that goes. supposed to be not as good as linus software raid though. so seems shame to be forced to take that route.
[20:42] <subcool> windows
[20:42] <NoelJB> whodis, yes, it is called mDNS (aka avahi, bonjour, etc.)
[20:42] <subcool> its the main drive of my laptp
[20:43] <Chris220> Where, on 9.04, is Perl located by default?
[20:43] <InfectedWithDrew> I have a Sansa e200 and when I plug it in, Jaunty recognizes it as a mp3 player and all that.  But I need to know where it is mounted to so I can install rockbox.  Any help?
[20:43] <Chris220> "which perl" says /usr/bin/perl, but there's no such directory
[20:43] <lanzelloth> nava2, i'll take a look but i'm no expert
[20:43] <Stormx2> subcool, does the problem lie with the windows boot, or the grub bootloader?
[20:43] <kitche> whodis: because colleges might have a public ip but they are all on the same network
[20:43] <NoelJB> whodis, and that depends on your uni's network :-)
[20:43] <Stormx2> Chris220: That's because /usr/bin/perl will be a file, not a directory
[20:43] <subcool> the HDD, i have a failure. Im trying to mount it and recover all my info
[20:43] <subcool> http://pastebin.com/m5d19be91
[20:43] <kitche> whodis: welcome to internet2 :)
[20:43] <Stormx2> subcool: Ah. So force a mount?
[20:44] <Chris220> Stormx2 ... Ok I feel stupid now X_X
[20:44] <Chris220> Thanks for the hint :)
[20:44] <asg> whodis: likely the zeroconf / avahi-daemon (in ubuntu) that MBPs use.
[20:44] <Chris220> I'm a newb to Linux, so I haven't got used to the file system yet :P
[20:44] <NoelJB> whodis, and are you using ubuntu on your MacBook Pro?
[20:44] <majnoon> moo
[20:44] <majnoon> nm wrong window
[20:45] <asg> majnoon: apt-get moo
[20:45] <nava2> lanzelloth: http://i26.tinypic.com/zy9fe8.png
[20:45] <whodis> noeljb i plan too, but not at the moment
[20:45] <subcool> Stormx2: im hearing many window's fixes and adjustments to this- but i dont think that is the best route. I have a LiveCD with Ubuntu right now (this comp, etc)
[20:45] <whodis> kitche, really that has something to do with it?
[20:45] <Stormx2> Chris220: Haha, it's cool. "bin" means "binary". Most files in a "bin" or "sbin" directory will be binaries (i.e. executables / programs / applications)
[20:45] <szucha> wazupppppppppppp
[20:45] <Stormx2> subcool, Your HDD has failed? :/
[20:45] <LinuxGold> hi all
[20:45] <Chris220> Stormx2: Thanks for that explanation, very helpful! :D
[20:45] <lanzelloth> nava2, it looks fine, did you run gparted with sudo?
[20:45] <Graham_> ok, gonna try again. I'm resilient if nothing else. Will probably be back in half hour after next failure.
[20:46] <majnoon> asg you DON'T need sudo to try it either :)
[20:46] <Anddos> resilient?
[20:46] <NoelJB> whodis, LOL Look, I'm an ubuntu user, but if I were inclined to use a MacBook (which I'm not), I'd stick with Mac OS X.  iTunes, Photoshop and Final Cut would be good reasons.
[20:46] <asg> majnoon: no, you don't
[20:46] <szucha> polaka kurwa!!
[20:46] <RHorse> whooa!
[20:46] <nava2> no
[20:46] <nava2> I will try to
[20:46] <Stormx2> !ohmy | szucha,
[20:46] <Graham_> Yep, after this many hours and too many attempts. resilience goe's a long way.
[20:47] <szucha> sorry
[20:47] <majnoon> SOMEONE at debian HAD a sense of humor at one time
[20:47] <szucha> polish!!!
[20:47] <majnoon> !pl
[20:47] <lanzelloth> quick question: can't extended partitions go all over the place? I mean not adjacent or in order
[20:47] <asg> majnoon: we still do but things changed some years back. /msg dpkg fable (in #debian)
[20:48] <Stormx2> lanzelloth, o.O what?
[20:48] <szucha> ok. im have problem with game FABLE THE LOST CHAPTERS
[20:48] <Stormx2> szucha, and what is this problem?
[20:48] <majnoon> asg can you come into the OT chan ??
[20:48] <subcool> brb taking the tras out
[20:49] <lanzelloth> Stormx2, i mean can you make another extended partition as long as there's empty space no matter where it is?
[20:49] <Stormx2> NoelJB, iTunes is perhaps the worst media player I've ever used. Photoshop and Final Cut can both be run in VMWare on a windows guest
[20:49] <szucha> im instal ubuntu 9.04, update all ok. instal wine and directX. configurate.
[20:49] <szucha> and than instal fable.
[20:49] <asg> majnoon: I'm there
[20:49] <subcool> Any suggestions from anyone would be great-i have a lot of personal information on this drive, and this is everything i have. My Back has to be sent to HDD recovery.
[20:49] <subcool> is bs
[20:49] <Stormx2> lanzelloth, Yes, but they can't overla
[20:49] <wlangford> Here's an interesting error: "tar: path/to/internal/tar/file: Cannot open: File Exists"
[20:49] <szucha> but when im start the game im have comunicate with problem about video and sound
[20:49] <Stormx2> If you had two extended partitions, A and B, the parents of four logical partitions could not be arranged as ABAB.
[20:50] <lanzelloth> Stormx2, I thought so :D they're basically linked lists
[20:50] <majnoon> no see you
[20:50] <pinp>  /join #python
[20:50] <asg> majnoon: heh, I was in debian-ot; hang on a sec
[20:50] <szucha> uno momento :D
[20:51] <Trijntje> subcool: can you state your problem again?
[20:51] <NoelJB> Stormx2, iTunes is also the only way to manage an iPod Touch or iPhone properly.  And I know VMware very well.  :-)  Mind you, there is no Final Cut for MS-Windows.  :-)  On linux, kdenlive is probably the best alternative.
[20:51] <Stormx2> lanzelloth: At that low a level, I'd imagine they are to an extend

[20:52] <Stormx2> !se | Jackiz
[20:52] <NoelJB> Stormx2, not that I know of.  Apple locked everyone out of the touch and phone.
[20:52] <edbian> za119: I'm here for ya
[20:52] <tanveeer> i play runescape on windows and on ubuntu i cant play it!
[20:52] <deano> !ipod | NoelJB
[20:53] <za119> edbian OK how do I get started
[20:53] <__kevin__> did something change with flashplayer in the last few days?
[20:53] <xomas_> hmm
[20:53] <nava2> tanveeer: You have the JavaPlugin?
[20:53] <tanveeer> which 1
[20:53] <mikc> Today I had some weird issues with an ATI Radeon 9800 : Jaunty live CD did not started, only safe graphic mode did. Once installed, the video driver was "vesa" in xorg.conf, with (of course) horrible performance. So I compiled/installed radeon driver git tag "xf86-video-ati-6.12.2" (default version in jaunty seems to be 6.12.1). With this driver, I was able to start the X server. But when using an openGL enabled app, its window is covered in little blac
[20:53] <tanveeer> i have firefox
[20:53] <Trijntje> __kevin__: 64 bit?
[20:53] <tanveeer> and icedtea
[20:53] <__kevin__> yes 64 bit
[20:53] <edbian> za119: Firstly make sure ubuntu is aware of the card.  Can you see it in the output of "sudo ifconfig" ??
[20:53] <nava2> tanveeer: just get the JavaPlugin, not ice tea
[20:53] <nava2> tanveeer: you can't play HD.
[20:54] <tanveeer> y?
[20:54] <deano> mikc, odd, I have a mobility radeon 9800, works out the box
[20:54] <nava2> Doesn't support it.
[20:54] <raskolnik> hoping someone can help me with this: I can't for the life of me get Flash to work with Firefox 3.5.2 on a 64-bit Ubuntu install
[20:54] <tanveeer> i user hd on windows
[20:54] <Stormx2> NoelJB: Ah, right you are. Looks like they need jailbreaking to work with ubuntu.
[20:54] <Trijntje> __kevin__: on this channel today i saw something about that, i believe the solution was to reinstall flash. Also talk to raskolnik who has a similar problem
[20:54] <NoelJB> deano, yes, I know.  I run iTunes in VMware, as it says.  Note: "As of now (22nd of June 2009), there is no alternative to iTunes when it comes to syncing with an iPod Touch or iPhone with Firmware 3.0."
[20:54] <za119> edbian it just gives me back lo when I do ifconfig
[20:54] <Jackiz> im trying to install despotify, im reading a guide, and now its telling me to compile, then make, make sudo install. . how do i do that!_
[20:54] <mikc> deano: it is an old  desktop computer, Pentium 4, 512 MB Ram
[20:54] <edbian> za119: So you have only 1 network card?
[20:55] <za119> edbian I just installed my only network card in a PCI slot, yes I just have one, and I need to now install it
[20:55] <__kevin__> thanks Trijntje - I'll give that a try
[20:55] <Stormx2> tanveeer, people that administer important servers sometimes turn to #ubuntu for help. Please don't describe problems with runescape as "URGENT!", thanks.
[20:55] <wlangford> Here's an interesting error: "tar: path/to/internal/tar/file: Cannot open: File Exists" Any thoughts?
[20:55] <__kevin__> weird thing is most flash works, just note apple movie trailers
[20:55] <za119> edbian I mean I have PHYSICALLY installed it into the PCI slot, now I need to get it running ha
[20:55] <tanveeer> runescape is urgent
[20:55] <edbian> za119: Now we're going to look in the output of "lspci"
[20:55] <tanveeer> my life depends on this game
[20:55] <fm_synth_linux> How to merge two videofiles to one long?
[20:55] <tanveeer> as i cant game with linux..
[20:56] <Stormx2> tanveeer: Then you need to take a look at your life, my friend.
[20:56] <ctmjr> !backup > ctmjr
[20:56] <tanveeer> i no
[20:56] <raskolnik> trijntje: I'm not 100% sure how to uninstall flash, since I've tried putting the plugin in a few different places
[20:56] <wlangford> Stormx2: Beat me to the punch.
[20:56] <tanveeer> thats what im trying tosay
[20:56] <wlangford> What's !backup do?
[20:56] <edbian> za119: If you run "lspci | grep Eth" then the system will take the output of lspci and filter it to only show the lines that have "Eth" somewhere in them.
[20:56] <__kevin__> me neither
[20:56] <deano> raskolnik, http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[20:56] <__kevin__> it was a pain to install
[20:56] <za119> edbian lspci gives me a line about my ethernet controller: "Ethernet Controller: D-Link System Inc DGE-530t gigabit ethernet adapter rev 11"
[20:56] <wlangford> !backup > wlangford
[20:56] <__kevin__> deano - saw that
[20:56] <tanveeer> so any 1 no were i can get this java plugin
[20:56] <nava2> tanveeer: go on the RuneScape forums.
[20:56] <tanveeer> where is that?
[20:56] <wlangford> Oh, neat.
[20:56] <mikc> fm_synth_linux: sometimes with dvb recorded files cat file1 file2 > outfile works
[20:57] <nava2> from synaptic tanveeer
[20:57] <deano> ok
[20:57] <__kevin__> the new plugin on Adobe's site
[20:57] <edbian> za119: Great so it knows that the card is there.  Now we just have to turn it on.  Is this the server install?
[20:57] <apparle> how to open list of process (Ctrl +Exc will work??)
[20:57] <__kevin__> I tried just replace the .so file
[20:57] <NoelJB> fm_synth_linux, http://forum.videohelp.com/topic277815.html or just make your life easier, install kdenlive, and edit.
[20:57] <apparle> apparle: I am not on gnome now...
[20:57] <__kevin__> but i think there is somehting with the npwrapper I need to do
[20:57] <raskolnik> deano: tried that; no luck...for some reason I seem to have both firefox 3.5 and 3.0 installed at the same time
[20:57] <za119> edbian yes
[20:58] <deano> If I ever buy another mp3/mp4 player i`ll get something that supports ogg and works with linux.

[20:59] <NoelJB> fm_synth_linux, last one ... "mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -o output.avi input1.avi input2.avi"
[20:59] <edbian> za119: You need to make a new entry for your eth0 interface
[20:59] <edbian> za119: Is the file completely blank?
[21:00] <tanveeer> so i get java from website?
[21:00] <za119> edbian no I have already tried to make one, so it has the lo portion and it has my attempted eth0 portion - and my eth0 portion seems like I wrote it correctly as well so idk why it wouldnt work
[21:00] <__kevin__> #quit
[21:00] <asg> majnoon: ;)
[21:01] <raskolnik> deano: alright ... clicking your link ran firefox 3.0 for some reason (not 3.5), and it works fine in that, but not in 3.5.  Is there any way to just consistently run 3.0 when I need to?
[21:01] <edbian> za119: Please pastebin it for me
[21:01] <za119> !pastebin
[21:01] <deano> raskolnik, I dont run 3.5 so I dont know, sorry

[21:04] <za119> edbian just ran init.d restart, now what
[21:04] <edbian> za119: Any errors?
[21:04] <eboyjr> How can a change the GNOME wallpaper of a user while logged into another user?

[21:04] <wlangford> Quick question.  Could I have both a file named "TAGS" and a directory named "tags" in the same directory?
[21:04] <edbian> za119: Can you ping google?    Just wanted to make sure I wasn't being dumb.)
[21:05] <edbian> za119: Also eth0 should now show up in "ifconfig"
[21:05] <raskolnik> deano: afraid not, I installed it manually :/
[21:05] <NoelJB> wlangford, yes
[21:05] <tanveeer> any 1...
[21:05] <za119> edbian eth0 isnt showing up in ifconfig and i cant ping google
[21:05] <wlangford> Okay, thought so.
[21:05] <eboyjr> migg137: Show Desktop, Windows Bar, Workspace switcher, and trash
[21:05] <deano> raskolnik, tried this? http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/set-the-default-browser-on-ubuntu-from-the-command-line/
[21:05] <edbian> za119: It simply didn't work?
[21:05] <za119> edbian I guess
[21:05] <tanveeer> i have sun java 6 JDK web start and open jdk java 6 runetime and sun java 6 run time and iced tea but runescpae still doesnt work...
[21:05] <edbian> za119: Look at "lspci -k"
[21:05] <edbian> za119: Does your ethernet device have a module associated with it?
[21:06] <proteusXX> I have a problem with vidalia
[21:06] <za119> edbian yes it says uunder my ethernet controller kerned driver in use: skge and kernel modules: skge
[21:06] <migg137> thankyou eboyjr

[21:07] <edbian> za119: Can you ping yourself?
[21:07] <edbian> za119: Do you have dhcp on this network?
[21:07] <za119> edbian as in ping localhost?
[21:07] <za119> edbian yes I can
[21:07] <edbian> za119: Try and ping your own ip address, <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:07] <za119> edbian no I use static IP's
[21:07] <edbian> za119: Can you ping your own address?
[21:07] <za119> edbian it says no network is unreachable
[21:08] <edbian> za119: Can you ping the gateway?
[21:08] <za119> edbian no
[21:08] <edbian> za119: Edit the file again.  Reput "auto eth0" and tab over the last 3 lines.  Address, netmask, and gateway  Also look for typos
[21:09] <raskolnik> deano: ok, I set it to default and changed my shortcut in gnome, so now 3.0 runs, and flash works, so thanks!
[21:09] <edbian> za119: I was under the impression that you didn't need "auto <interface>" for static IP's but I could be wrong.
[21:09] <edbian> za119: After you've editing the file pastebin it again for me.
[21:09] <DWonderly> General Question... Linux and chipsets... AMD or INTEL?
[21:10] <NoelJB> DWonderly, both.  I have systems on both sets.
[21:10] <deano> raskolnik, cool.  I really see no need to use 3.5 personally.  I just dont see anything great/new about it.  3.0 works for me, and is as fast./
[21:10] <DWonderly> NoelJB: Thanks
[21:10] <Vinceman> where in ubuntu can you set the settings for your webcam back to standard?
[21:10] <raskolnik> deano: 3.5 feels faster on x64, but flash is so ubiquitous it's not worth the trade-off ... eh well, I can wait a few months no problem....thanks again
[21:11] <NoelJB> what's wrong with flash?  I have it working with FF 3.5.
[21:12] <za119> edbian http://paste.ubuntu.com/257696/
[21:12] <HobbleAlong> edbian: you do need auto <interface> for auto start.  After a change do ifdown <interface> ifup <interface> for the changes to take effect
[21:12] <edbian> /etc/init.d/networking restart has the same effect as ifdown and ifup
[21:13] <HobbleAlong> edbian: yup
[21:13] <xavierL> bonjour
[21:13] <edbian> za119: I see you also added "network"  That looks good.  try "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" again
[21:14] <edbian> za119: or ifup, ifdown.  Your choice
[21:14] <za119> still only lo is showing up in ifconfig
[21:14] <edbian> za119: After restarting?
[21:14] <xavierL> hie, sorry
[21:14] <za119> edbian I also tried ifdown and up -a and restarting network, but still I only get lo
[21:15] <{[Aaron]}> How do I extract a .tar.gz file to a given location using the terminal?
[21:15] <za119> I get a weird error though when I do ifup eth0 edbian
[21:15] <edbian> za119: Are you sure there were no errors?  There aren't any typos in /etc/network/interfaces or anything?
[21:15] <RHorse> za119 ifconfig?
[21:15] <edbian> za119: What was the error??
[21:15] <edbian> RHorse: His ifconfig only shows "lo"
[21:15] <phenom> Is ubuntu planning on supporting the new Firefox any time soon?
[21:15] <edbian> !ff3.5 | phenom
[21:15] <za119> edbian it says unable to resolve host Tron and eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: no such device SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
[21:15] <redclaw24> hi all
[21:16] <edbian> za119: In lspci is your interface ever called eth1 or something?
[21:16] <edbian> za119: "host Tron" does that mean anything to you??
[21:16] <phenom> edbian, Yea, I have it installed. But it's not officially supported, or in their repo yet
[21:16] <edbian> phenom: It will be default in 9.10 I believe
[21:16] <za119> edbian no lspci just says Ethernet Controller
[21:16] <phenom> I have problems with shiretoko
[21:16] <RHorse> za119 is card a pci type?
[21:17] <edbian> RHorse: It is
[21:17] <rufensis> Anyone with VPN expertise?? I'm desperately trying to fix a problem with pptp in Jaunty and have followed many guides to no avail.
[21:17] <xavierL> Does anyone know how to install ubuntu with a weird (fake) raid  0 ? I've been tghrough a few tutorials, only ending in the same : crash, with sometimes having to format my hardrive, which is gettiing me fiercley angry.
[21:17] <RHorse> za119 try reseating card and cold boot
[21:17] <bucky> za119: he means ifconfig
[21:17] <phenom> And you have to update FF as root > sudo else you can mess up FF.
[21:17] <edbian> RHorse: How do you reset a card??
[21:17] <{[Aaron]}> How do I extract a .tar.gz file to a given location using the terminal?
[21:17] <za119> RHorse like take it out and put it back in??
[21:17] <bucky> za119: do you have anything in /etc/resolv.conf for a nameserver?
[21:17] <edbian> za119: I suspect many something to do with bios configurations?  IRQ perhaps?
[21:18] <Pirate_Hunter> weird thing my keyboard in xorg is setup for british keyboard which works fine but in terminal I cant use the pound (£) sign, if I try i get # instead, does anyone know how to correct this?
[21:18] <RHorse> edbian just pull it out and reseat it.
[21:18] <edbian> bucky: He couldn't even ping local ip addresses.
[21:18] <SmithX> {[Aaron]}: tar -C /my/destination -xzf <mytar.tgz>
[21:18] <edbian> RHorse: Is there a reset button?  Jumper?
[21:18] <{[Aaron]}> thanks SmithX .
[21:18] <bucky> edbian: is this usb?
[21:18] <bucky> or wireless
[21:18] <edbian> bucky: It's a pci network card
[21:18] <edbian> bucky: wired
[21:18] <za119> edbian I could check bios if u want, and in resolv.conf I have the 3 nameservers it came with and 2 I put in myself so it can work on my network
[21:18] <edbian> bucky: and it's za119's problem ;)
[21:18] <RHorse> edbian reSEAT, not reSET
[21:18] <bucky> edbian: does he have drivers loaded for it in lsmod ?
[21:18] <edbian> RHorse: Thanks! :P
[21:19] <edbian> bucky: Some showed in lspci -k
[21:19] <edbian> bucky: We did not check lsmod
[21:19] <za119> bucky how can I try the lsmod thing
[21:19] <SmithX> {[Aaron]}: sometimes depending on the order of compression and tarrring, you might have to do use -zxf instead of -xzf
[21:19] <edbian> za119: "sudo lsmod"
[21:19] <edbian> za119: And look for your card
[21:19] <za119> lspci -k showed it was loading skge driver
[21:20] <za119> edbian I am doing htis in terminal how do I scroll up
[21:20] <edbian> za119: You don't actually need sudo.  just "lsmod"  page up key should do the trick
[21:20] <lanzelloth> what do you guys use for reading chm? chmsee doesn't have a search function
[21:20] <edbian> za119: You could also use "lsmod | grep <something>" to filter the results
[21:20] <asg> lanzelloth: xchm
[21:20] <edbian> za119: grep is a handy little tool
[21:20] <bthornton> Does the current version of Ubuntu have desktop search integrated ("desktop search" meaning that file/email content is also indexed)? It seems like older versions did, but now I can only search by filename.
[21:21] <za119> edbian I still cant scroll up for some reason should I grep something
[21:21] <edbian> za119: I think reseating is a good idea BTW
[21:21] <lanzelloth> asg, would you consider it to be powerfull?
[21:21] <HobbleAlong> za119: shift page up to scroll up
[21:21] <edbian> za119: grep the name of the module that showed up in "lspci -k"
[21:21] <edbian> za119: Ah yes!  shift + page up
[21:21] <asg> lanzelloth: I consider it to be useful in a way that gnochm isn't.
[21:22] <lanzelloth> asg, ok will try it out
[21:22] <edbian> za119: Personally I don't like "lsmod" cause it is cryptic in naming things.
[21:22] <za119> edbian I HAVE NEEDED THE SCROLL UP TRICK FOR SO LONG THANK YOU!! and let me try to grep skge
[21:22] <edbian> za119: Thank HobbleAlong
[21:22] <asg> lanzelloth: you can always apt-get remove --purge xchm if you don't like it :)
[21:22] <za119> edbian what am i looking for in lsmod
[21:23] <edbian> za119: I can't say really.  Like I said I don't like lsmod.  Your skge module I suppose.  Ask bucky
[21:23] <edbian> za119: He suggested it.  I suggest you reseat the card
[21:23] <za119> edbian I found my skge module in there and it is running I think it has a number next to it I am assuming is a pid
[21:23] <edbian> za119: Is it possible that this card is fried?
[21:23] <Jackiz> 1337 online!
[21:23] <za119> edbian just got it in yesterday
[21:24] <edbian> za119: If the module is listed there than it is being used
[21:24] <Pirate_Hunter> weird thing my keyboard in xorg is setup for british keyboard which works fine but in terminal I cant use the pound (£) sign, if I try i get # instead, does anyone know how to correct this?
[21:24] <za119> edbian I am going to try to reseat it, and when I start back up I am going to check bios, ok?
[21:24] <blkdg> hello is there a # for powerPC ubuntu?
[21:24] <edbian> za119: Sounds good.  Good luck!
[21:24] <IdleOne> Pirate_Hunter: did you try ctrl+shift+#
[21:24] <spanther> blkdg, got a mac? :)
[21:24] <edbian> Pirate_Hunter: # is "pound" in America.
[21:25] <edbian> Pirate_Hunter: I know it doesn't help you much but I'm just saying
[21:25] <migg137> Hello, is there a way to make my windows bar transparent, they do when it is the non selected window, but i want them to always be transparent. Thankyou
[21:25] <Pirate_Hunter> IdleOne: i only have one language set in my xorg it works correct except for terminal
[21:26] <tntcoda> Hi guys, whats the best way to find someone willing to package a project im developing for Ubuntu? Im basically the only person working on the project, and have no time to package myself (nor any knowledge of .debs)
[21:26] <spanther> migg137, look at system -> settings -> appearance -> desktop effects :)
[21:26] <Pirate_Hunter> edbian: hmm # is # in terminal on my system and it is also shift+3 which is meant to be £
[21:26] <spanther> you can manually configure desktop effects
[21:26] <IdleOne> Pirate_Hunter: I understand. I thought maybe it was like the ctrl+v command, in terminal you add shift to get paste
[21:27] <blkdg> spanther, to old imacs.
[21:27] <blkdg> two
[21:27] <edbian> Pirate_Hunter: weird! :P
[21:27] <spanther> blkdg, cool ubuntu still runs on them? :D
[21:27] <migg137> spanther, i dont have a settings option after system
[21:27] <Pirate_Hunter> edbian: i know why would it work in the system except termianl it creates a major inconvenience with scp and ssh
[21:27] <edbian> migg137: "sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm" to get a program to configure compiz
[21:27] <IdleOne> !packaging > tntcoda
[21:27] <spanther> migg137, the icon with orange screwdriver :)
[21:28] <edbian> Pirate_Hunter: I have no idea lol
[21:28] <blkdg> i don't know. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads looks like it does
[21:28] <migg137> edbian, i have compiz advanced setting manager already
[21:28] <Vinceman> where in ubuntu can you set the settings for your webcam back to standard?
[21:28] <edbian> migg137: Then what are you looking for?
[21:28] <ren-> anyone know how to configure the notification in jaunty? (The black popup displaying random info--like song name) I have a dual monitor setup and rarely use the 2nd monitor, but the notification shows on that one.
[21:28] <quagga> server samair.eushells.ro port 45000
[21:28] <migg137> edbian, how to make my windows bar transparent i do not know how
[21:29] <blkdg> spanther, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads looks promising. but i don't know if i should bother with anything past 7.04
[21:29] <edbian> migg137: That is actually part of the "emerald" project.  You have to install emerald: "sudo apt-get install emerald" and then you have to turn it on
[21:29] <HobbleAlong> Pirate_Hunter: is your keyboard set to USA?
[21:29] <Cosmic_Karma> i'm currently trying to get mty usb to work in win xp in vmware I asked in vmware and got no answers maybe some one in here can help
[21:29] <migg137> edbian, i have emerald... but how do i configure it
[21:29] <Cosmic_Karma> I tried the steps from here http://ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/04/howto-install-virtualbox-in-ubuntu-hardy-heron-with-usb-support-in-5-easy-steps.html
[21:30] <edbian> migg137: There is also a emerald settings manager in the repos.  To turn it on "emerald --replace&" in a terminal
[21:30] <spanther> blkdg, i never had an iMac so i can't give advice which version works best :)
[21:30] <Cosmic_Karma> I installed all ubuntu hardy update s and have most recent version of vmware
[21:30] <blkdg> thanks anyhow.
[21:31] <RHorse> migg137 google emerald make transparant window bar or something. I did it on mine.
[21:31] <Cosmic_Karma> I'm trying the part on that site where it shows if these steps did not work
[21:31] <migg137> edbian, thankyou so now if i want to turn it of how do i do that
[21:31] <KurtKraut> I'm trying to find a easy way to install Ubuntu from a USB pendrive. The official documentation mentions commands and options that does not exists on every Linux distro. Any suggestions?
[21:31] <Cosmic_Karma> but i dont understand the directions at that part
[21:31] <edbian> migg137: "compiz --replace&"
[21:32] <edbian> migg137: or possibly "metacity --replace&" but that might shut off compiz as well.
[21:33] <migg137> edbian, the first compiz-- replace did not work i still have the emerald thewme thing
[21:33] <migg137> theme*
[21:33] <unop> KurtKraut, using the unetbootin utility would probably be the easiest
[21:33] <unop> !info unetbootin
[21:34] <edbian> migg137: "metacity --replace&"
[21:34] <migg137> edbian, now i dont have the minimize buttons or close buttons
[21:34] <KurtKraut> unop: I've tried with unetbootin several times and it doesn't work. Sometimes it attemps to write data to the pendrive, sometimes it doesn't. And when it does, it leads to an unbootable image.
[21:34] <edbian> migg137: "metacity --replace"
[21:34] <migg137> edbian, i closed the terminal and it worked... thanks
[21:35] <edbian> migg137: A restart will bring them back W.C.S.  The proper way to start emerald with compiz is to add "emerald" to the window decorator plugin.
[21:35] <edbian> migg137: In the ccsm
[21:35] <unop> KurtKraut, i've seen similar problems with certain pendrive models - it could be that
[21:36] <burdom> yeah good dude, thanks for asking. In the end I just attached bits of puffed wheat to the end of it and let the chipmunks nibble them off. Was an awesome feeling, but a little dangerous.
[21:36] <unop> KurtKraut, you could try this method here - http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive  - just be very careful with the commands and getting the device names right or you risk losing data on other harddrives
[21:36] <burdom> sorry, wrong window
[21:36] <migg137> edbian, ok i have that enabled in ccsm but now how do i add it the proper way
[21:37] <edbian> migg137: ?  That is the proper way.
[21:37] <migg137> edbian, o0k thankyou very much
[21:37] <edbian> migg137: Now when you restart compiz will call "emerald" instead of metacity
[21:37] <edbian> migg137: NP! :)
[21:37] <edbian> migg137: Good luck ubuntu-ing!
[21:37] <VCoolio> hpw come when I run screen in gnome-terminal my cpu adds 10% while the sum of cpu-values in top doesn't add up to that?
[21:38] <KurtKraut> unop: I've already tried it but somehow, this documentation already presume you're using Ubuntu. It mentions commands/syntaxes that does not exist in other linux distros.
[21:38] <Pirate_Hunter> weird thing my keyboard in xorg is setup for british keyboard which works fine but in terminal I cant use the pound (£) sign, if I try i get # instead, does anyone know how to correct this?
[21:38] <unop> KurtKraut, like what commands exactly?  i'm pretty sure if you don't have those commands, you will need to install the packages that provide them.
[21:39] <Stormx2> Pirate_Hunter, System > Preference > Keyboard
[21:39] <Stormx2> Set to british in there too
[21:39] <za119> hey why when I try to install ubuntu server onto my computer it keeps stopping at install the base system
[21:39] <RHorse> lastlog za119
[21:39] <genii> bluetooth for keyboard/mouse is just soooo much better range-wise
[21:39] <KurtKraut> unop: I had to install some packages to Mandriva (distro I'm currently using) but even having the programs/commands needed, the syntax provided by this documentation aren't accepted. I belive due to different program/package versions.
[21:40] <za119> how do I do that RHorse .. oh and BTW i am just re-installing ubuntu to try to get htis card working because i dont think it iwll otherwise, and now atleast during the install process of ubuntu the lights on the card work, whereas before they have never turned on ha
[21:40] <epaphus> Hello, is it true that If I install ubuntu 9.04 on a machine...and I transfer the hard disk into another box... it might not work? or does the kernel adapt while the machine is of the same arch in this case i386 ?
[21:40] <genii> Sorry, misdirect on that last msg
[21:40] <za119> edbian ha did u read that
[21:40] <Pirate_Hunter> Stormx2: no gnome, fluxbox and it only happens in terminal
[21:40] <RHorse> za119 ethernet cards are cheap. Just get one that your Ubie sees. :)
[21:41] <za119> RHorse I just bought this one because it didnt see my last one
[21:41] <za119> RHorse and the last one was some no name ne that dosent work with linux so I did my research and bought a d-link that will work with ubuntu
[21:41] <unop> KurtKraut, the commands used here are pretty standard GNU utilities and there's no obscure options used either - I would ask in #mandriva for support or boot ubuntu using a live CD, create the disk, etc
[21:41] <RHorse> za119 Is the MB ok? I don't like the sound of this.
[21:41] <jatt> how do I adjust the expo plugin to show the viewports tiled?
[21:42] <jatt> per default it shows the viewports horizontaly one after the other
[21:42] <za119> RHorse it says no that I am trying to instal ubuntu - bootstrap error invalid relase file: no valid components
[21:42] <bptk421> epaphus: I've moved from a 486 through several different pentium models and it handled each change without any problems.
[21:42] <zenwryly> What's the "proper" way to tell if a machine is actually swapping significantly?  (As opposed to just if some swap is being used for infrequently accessed stuff)
[21:42] <KurtKraut> unop: ok, thanks.
[21:42] <za119> now that i am **
[21:43] <epaphus> bpgoldsb, I wonder what would happen bewteen an AMD and Intel?
[21:43] <RHorse> za119 get a new install disk. :(
[21:43] <KurtKraut> unop: Mandriva has a shell script called 'mandriva-seed.sh' that does this job flawlessly. But, of course, only for Mandriva images/LiveCD.
[21:43] <unop> zenwryly,  cat /proc/swaps  # and you should see the kswapd daemon using quite a few CPU cycles in the process table.
[21:43] <za119> RHorse what do u mea??
[21:44] <bptk421> epaphus: what kind of amd? I doubt you;d have any problems
[21:44] <zenwryly> unop: ok, thanks!
[21:44] <epaphus> bpgoldsb, i dont have a particular example. but it would be a newer  version..
[21:44] <unop> KurtKraut, yea, also look here for some alternative methods that might work for you - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[21:45] <bptk421> if you're kernel is i386 than machine after that should have no problems
[21:45] <unop> KurtKraut, there's a similar script for ubuntu called isotostick.sh on the page - should work
[21:46] <epaphus> bpgoldsb, is this equivalent ? Linux arenas 2.6.27-14-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 24 22:19:33 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:46] <VCoolio> how come when I run screen in gnome-terminal my total cpu usage increases with 10% while the sum of process cpu-values in top doesn't add up to that?
[21:46] <LinuxGold> asdfasdf
[21:47] <burdom> epaphus, your hardware is detected at boot time. As long as it's the same architecture (x86) there is no problem
[21:48] <Mandrew> hello anyone here developing on ubuntu 9.10_

[21:55] <perlsyntax> Does anyone know how to get the blackberry to work on linux?
[21:55] <rufensis> NoelJB: thanks.  didn't know it existed
[21:55] <IdleOne> Blarghs: don't harass or insult the bot please
[21:55] <IdleOne> !botsnack
[21:55] <Blarghs> Its come to my attention that Stew and some people in this channel dont like the ways of Debian/Ubuntu forces. let me know what exactly it is you dislike
[21:55] <NoelJB> rufensis, no worry.  until recently, neither did I.  :-)
[21:55] <cyberkilla> Hello?

[21:56] <perlsyntax> Does anyone use a blackberry with ubuntu 9.04?
[21:56] <cyberkilla> I need help. Big help. My nvidia driver is causing artifacts since this morning.
[21:56] <cyberkilla> I was informed that I needed a "partial upgrade" (im running karmic alpha 4)
[21:56] <cyberkilla> It installed nvidia driver 185
[21:57] <Blarghs> IdleOne: Im sorry, you seem to want nothing but cause bad vibes
[21:57] <NoelJB> lordnikon, for flash apt-get flashplugin-installer
[21:57] <cyberkilla> Can anyone help?
[21:57] <Flannel> Blarghs: Is there something we can help you with today?
[21:57] <NoelJB> cyberkilla, WHICH 185?
[21:57] <Blarghs> Flannel: priv ?
[21:57] <IdleOne> Blarghs: why don't you go RTFM
[21:57] <Flannel> cyberkilla: #ubuntu+1 is the place for Karmic support, thanks
[21:57] <Flannel> IdleOne: Please refrain from that.
[21:57] <NoelJB> cyberkilla, if you are still stuck on the defective 185.18.31, you can wait or you can install the nvidia PPA and install 185.18.36.
[21:57] <Flannel> Blarghs: If you insist.
[21:57] <lordnikon> im on amd64 running 9.04 and need help getting flash player installed and movie player working
[21:58] <lordnikon> can anyone help??

[21:58] <Blarghs> IdleOne: I know then 50 of you combined. Why would i want to ?

[21:58] <lordnikon> cant get the right flashplayer installed
[21:58] <lordnikon> and movie player can get tyhe right codecs
[21:58]  * VCoolio found that screens status notifications use a lot of cpu, wonders why considering conky pwning screen here
[21:58] <NoelJB> lordnikon, are you 32 bit or 64?
[21:59] <lordnikon> 64 bit
[21:59] <Mandrew> try vlc
[21:59] <lordnikon> i tried it, but i t wont play my dvd
[21:59] <cyberkilla> aha!
[21:59] <NoelJB> lordnikon, the best way to install 64 bit flash is to get it directly from adobe labs, and just copy the file into the correct directory.
[21:59] <cyberkilla> sorry, I'll go into that room
[21:59] <lordnikon> ok, im good up to that pioiunt
[21:59] <cyberkilla> Evidentally, I already tried the PPA
[21:59] <cyberkilla> same problem
[21:59] <lordnikon> how do i find the right dir
[21:59] <NoelJB> lordnikon, and ubuntu comes with totem.  you can install others.  I have both VLC and mplayer.

[22:11] <bluejeans> how to install 32 bit firefox onto a 64 bit system?
[22:11] <Chris220> Seeker`, I was speaking on Pirate_Hunter's behalf.
[22:11] <Stormx2> !fakeroot | bluejeans
[22:11] <Chris220> Seeker`, he's been waiting a long time
[22:11] <Stormx2> Bleh.
[22:11] <Stormx2> bluejeans, why would you want to do that, out of interest?
[22:12] <MaGicMaX> what music player do u guys use? ive tried a few and didnt like them
[22:12] <RHorse> bluejeans any 32 bit sw should work
[22:12] <Exposure> Pirate_Hunter: that's not configured in xorg.conf...
[22:12] <Stormx2> MaGicMaX, personally I use Sonata
[22:12] <eminor> MaGicMaX, cmus
[22:12] <lanzelloth> people say linux is build from the ground up to be more secure what does that mean?
[22:12] <Stormx2> lanzelloth, ask them, not us.
[22:13] <bluejeans> Stormx2: that's the only way current'y to get flash working on a 64 bit
[22:13] <MaGicMaX> has anyone ever used Audacious?
[22:13] <lanzelloth> is it because you can only run important stuff as root?
[22:13] <Stormx2> bluejeans, well, I'm running 64bit flash on 64bit firefox on 64bit ubuntu.
[22:13] <Exposure> there's 64bit flash...
[22:13] <Stormx2> Did I break reality?
[22:13] <Seeker`> lanzelloth: it means that security isn't an afterthought
[22:13] <Stormx2> MaGicMaX, Audacious is a fine Winamp 2 clone.
[22:13] <deano> 64 bit flash is available.
[22:13] <burdom> Flannel, your inability to properly manage the channel has seen it descend into farce.
[22:13] <mcphail> bluejeans: 64 bit flash seems as stable as 32 bit here

[22:16] <lstarnes> octavio: this is the official irc channel for ubuntu

[22:18] <need_help> what is another package for uuencode! i'm trying to install it give me error there is package similar to it
[22:18] <Stormx2> MatBoy, have you configured your optical drive to be your primary boot device?
[22:18] <timothy_> every time i go to apt-get and install a package it says the package is not authenticated
[22:18] <th0r> MOUD: look at aptoncd
[22:18] <HobbleAlong> Pirate_Hunter: check System->preferences->keyboard->layouts  make sure you haven't got USA selected.
[22:18] <lstarnes> need_help: what error?
[22:18] <MatBoy> mcphail: using imgburn...
[22:18] <MatBoy> Stormx2: yap
[22:18] <Exposure> Pirate_Hunter: don't you mean the sign in front of what you type, after the current directory, in a terminal?
[22:18] <MatBoy> Stormx2: I even select it from the bootmenu

[22:19] <lanzelloth> myk_robinson, there's a solution somewhere in here http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/9cmj6/no_more_applecom_movie_trailers_for_linux_users/
[22:19] <lstarnes> need_help: you need a different package that provides uuencode
[22:19] <Exposure> Pirate_Hunter: oh I misread the problem then, do what HobbleAlong said
[22:19] <MatBoy> Stormx2: I can install a normal ubuntu on my EEEPC ofcourse
[22:19] <Pirate_Hunter> HobbleAlong:  not using gnome everything is set from xorg.conf

[22:20] <need_help> lstarnes lol :P actually i want to know what the package name that similar to it install
[22:20] <lstarnes> need_help: I think it's in sharutils
[22:20] <MatBoy> mcphail: nope
[22:20] <Stormx2> MatBoy, okay, a few suggestions: 1) md5sum the ISO to make sure it's okay 2) Use a different software burner, with no other applications running while burning 3) If all else fails, install from USB or thru Wubi
[22:20] <MatBoy> mcphail: tried 3 different dvd's and downloads
[22:20] <lstarnes> need_help: try apt-file search uuencode
[22:20] <MatBoy> Stormx2: is there no netinstall for unr ?
[22:20] <MatBoy> that would be nicer
[22:20] <mcphail> MatBoy: as i said, haven't tried burning the .img to dvd but worked like a charm on a 1 gig USB drive. Try that?
[22:20] <Stormx2> MatBoy, there is, but I know nothing about it :
[22:20] <Stormx2> :(
[22:21] <lordnikon> any7one know how i can get the file libflashplayer.20 into the pligin folder
[22:21] <Pythack> Hello.

[22:21] <MatBoy> mcphail: same issue on the USB drive :S
[22:21] <MatBoy> Stormx2: tyhere is ?
[22:21] <lstarnes> need_help: then do as it says and install sharutils
[22:21] <mcphail> MatBoy: try "burning" it to the usb drive with dd
[22:21] <lukus> hi -could someone tell me why firefox is shiretoko in ubuntu?
[22:21] <Stormx2> MatBoy: net install.
[22:21] <lukus> (3.5)
[22:21] <lstarnes> !ffw5 | lukus
[22:21] <th0r> lordnikon: use sudo...but I am not sure you want to do that
[22:21] <lstarnes> oops
[22:21] <migg137> rhorse, thanks ima go try that
[22:21] <lstarnes> !ff35 | lukus
[22:22] <MatBoy> mcphail: can be done indeed
[22:22] <lstarnes> need_help: that package contains uuencode and uudecode along with other tools
[22:22] <SirPablo> lukus: Why yeas... you have a mokoloco
[22:22] <MatBoy> mcphail: I will burn it on my server... just a sec
[22:22] <lordnikon> is there no easy way to do anything in linux?? lol
[22:22] <HobbleAlong> Pirate_Hunter: your Xorg looks like you have gb selected for your keyboard as default, so it looks as though you have USA overriding it somewhere else.
[22:22] <MOUD> th0r: Can I use this program just to copy those files without creating a CD for it?
[22:22] <lukus> lstarnes; thanks.. i can see i'm not the first person to ask
[22:22] <need_help> lstarnes ok i'm installing dependency although apt must do it
[22:22] <lordnikon> thor cant i just drag and drop it \
[22:22] <Stormx2> lordnikon: Almost everything is simpler and clearer in ubuntu for me.
[22:22] <lukus> SirPablo; a mokoloco?
[22:23] <Stormx2> !flash | lordnikon
[22:23] <SirPablo> lukus: why Yeaas! :=)
[22:23] <need_help> lstarnes same error i install sharlutils and try to install uuencode didn't work ! it say there is another package similar!
[22:23] <Stormx2> SirPablo: commeee nowww chilldren!
[22:23] <th0r> MOUD: that program will create a CD or DVD that contains all the files you have downloaded using apt. If you try to just copy the files to another partition you will surely miss some libs and other dependencies...much better to reinstall the debs after you reinstall
[22:24] <migg137> RHorse, so how do install adobe reader so i can do this
[22:24] <lstarnes> need_help: the package's name is sharutils, not sharlutils
[22:24] <timothy_> every time i run apt-get i get it says that packages are not authenticated
[22:24] <Pirate_Hunter> HobbleAlong: every key works except the shift+3 i dont know if it is a setting issue with fluxbox or soemthing else i am sure it used to work but i aint aware of changing anything specially keys
[22:24] <Stormx2> migg137: Adobe Acrobat Reader? Ubuntu has a PDF reader pre-installed
[22:24] <MatBoy> is there a way to burn a .img from the commandline ?
[22:24] <lukus> SirPablo; i have no idea what you're getting at - sorry .. i must be dense
[22:24] <Stormx2> timothy_, then you've added a third party repo without a key, no?
[22:24] <lstarnes> timothy_: can you pastebin the error?
[22:24] <Makuseru> I have an HP G60 laptop, and when it goes into suspend, I can't get it to return. How can I fix this?
[22:24] <mcphail> MatBoy: as i said, use dd
[22:24] <MatBoy> mcphail: to a DVD ?
[22:25] <migg137> Stormx2, yeah but i need it to read my pdf's out loud
[22:25] <timothy_> what
[22:25] <Giiooo> hello im using proftpd and its not letting me add file to my root folder which i put /var/www , how can i fix that ?
[22:25] <th0r> MOUD: you can create an iso file with that program, then mount it using fuseiso after you reinstall...you don't actually have to burn a cd or dvd
[22:25] <MatBoy> I want to use the DVDVB first
[22:25] <SirPablo> lukus: Only in density you can truely know your habitat
[22:25] <lstarnes> !pastebin | timothy_
[22:25] <Stormx2> migg137, ah. Well ubuntu has some screen-reader apps and stuff, though Adobe Acrobat won't run on ubuntu natively

[22:26] <Stormx2> lordnikon: Stop talking to the poor bot
[22:26] <lukus> ubottu: what kind of bot are you?
[22:27] <MOUD> th0r: well, you see... I got a big problem on my distro. I installed some programs some days ago and the Network thing that appears near the clock disappeared, and it also disappeared from the System > Preferences/Administrator. Some people here said that the program is called  " nm " so I tried running it but when I try to run it I get the error that the file "a.out" doesn't exist.
[22:27] <lukus> ubottu; are you stupid?
[22:27] <migg137> Stormx2, ok so how do i use theese screen reding apps

[22:29] <MatBoy> mcphail: ok seems to be burning now :D
[22:29] <th0r> MOUD: that program is gnome-network-manager
[22:29] <th0r> MOUD: it is referred to sometimes as Network Manager, or nm for short...but the full name is gnome-network-manager
[22:29] <Stormx2> lordnikon, You can also place FF plugins in ~/.mozilla/plugins (create it if it doesn't exist)
[22:30] <lordnikon> i think i got firefox figured out
[22:30] <Ben64> :D 7MB/s from apple trailers
[22:30] <Stormx2> th0r: I thought it was just NetworkManager?

[22:34] <RHorse> moud I have a little experience with wireless hehe
[22:34] <lstarnes> timothy_: try sudo apt-key update
[22:34] <Flannel> nmvictor: apache runs as the user www-data, make sure your files are readable by www-data
[22:34] <SirPablo> timothy_: Its of great importance as you might have guessed. Should it not turn out the way we wish the military will put offenders away.
[22:34] <MOUD> RHorse: no problem. I'll wait for someone else help me :)

[22:36] <RHorse> moud are you using a pci card or pcmcia?
[22:36] <Stormx2> nmvictor: Usually involves chmoding the relevent folders to 755 or similar
[22:36] <wegot5> I am using Ubuntu 9.04 lpia. Ubuntu 9.04 lpia is able to run i386 binaries. How can I force apt to install binary packages from an apt repository that provides i386 packages?
[22:36] <Flannel> nmvictor: The easiest (short term) way is to make them world readable.

[22:38] <Seeker`> SirPablo: no

[22:42] <iwo> hey, can anyone tell me how to add a package from the karmic repository into jaunty?
[22:42] <iwo> i guess i need to add a new software source
[22:43] <guntbert> !karmic | iwo
[22:43] <raylu> iwo: it's a better idea to just download the deb and install it with dpkg
[22:43] <IdleOne> iwo: not a good idea. that will probably break your current install
[22:43] <iwo> :(
[22:43] <timothy_> i need some help from somebody
[22:43] <iwo> out of interest, is there any chance that the jaunty repo might be updated?
[22:43] <bluejeans> flash is now working. thanks lstarnes and Stormx2
[22:43] <guntbert> !patience | timothy_
[22:43] <VCoolio> timothy_: try the attached script from the first post here, run that and see what happens http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056099
[22:43] <dajhorn> iwo: Which package do you want?
[22:43] <fire> Hello, I'm trying to install imagick through putty and I keep getting a "make" error. make: *** [imagick_helpers.lo] Error 1
[22:43] <fire> ERROR: `make' failed
[22:44] <Flannel> fire: What's wrong with the version in the repos?
[22:44] <iwo> the karmic repo has a newer version, which i'd like, but the jaunty repo hasn't been updated
[22:44] <iwo> dajhorn: bugzilla3
[22:44] <fire> Flannel: I don't know what do you mean?
[22:44] <dajhorn> iwo: My guess is no.
[22:44] <luke__> so anyone familiar with swiftfox? i need help having a bug worked out
[22:44] <Flannel> fire: imagemagick is in the repositories.  Why not just install that?
[22:45] <Pythack> Hello.
[22:45] <dajhorn> iwo: One solution would be to add the "deb-src" line for Karmic to your sources.list file, and then doing a "apt-get source --build bugzilla3".
[22:45] <Pythack> I have a problem with my laptop.
[22:45] <fire> Flannel: I'm just following a tut i found...trying to install a image hosting scrypt
[22:45] <Pythack> I just installed ubuntu.
[22:45] <dajhorn> iwo: This is safer than installing the Karmic deb.
[22:45] <Flannel> iwo: You should be able to backport it easily.
[22:45] <fire> flannel, "sudo apt-get install imagemagick" ?
[22:45] <Flannel> !prevu | iwo, dajhorn
[22:45] <Flannel> That script will backport it for you
[22:46] <Flannel> fire: yes
[22:46] <GreenSkunk> Any GRUB peeps out there? Super GRUB states: "Error 29: Disk write error" after the 'Running "install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst "... failed'
[22:46] <Pythack> But I wanna get 1024x760.
[22:46] <fire> flannel: it says "imagemagick is already the newest version."
[22:46] <Flannel> fire: Then you've already got it installed.
[22:46] <fire> Flannel: this is what i'm trying to do.  sudo imagemagick, then sudo pecl install imagick
[22:46] <Flannel> fire: also, you might want to find a better tutorial, as that one likely does other things incorrectly (and more difficultly!) as well
[22:46] <Pythack> But the max is 800x600.
[22:46] <iwo> ooh, thanks!
[22:47] <teolicy> Hi. How do I resize my current terminal window from the command line?
[22:47] <Pythack> How can I have 1024x760?
[22:47] <fire> Flannel: Well, this is the thing im followign....seems kinda simple mnius this error:  http://www.theatons.com/install-imagemagick-imagick-for-php-on-ubuntu
[22:47] <GreenSkunk> fire: Are you running ./configure before make?
[22:47] <pri> oi
[22:48] <timothy_> do you think that  apt-get is messed up
[22:48] <RHorse> Pythack you mean virtual console or an X term?

[22:51] <ctmjr> !webcam | lordnikon

[22:51] <luke__> timothy, go the where th .bin file is
[22:51] <timothy_> thank you

[22:54] <MaGicMaX> anyone know of a list of compatible scanners for ubuntu?
[22:54] <fire> I just ran the installer of Mihalism, but it wants me to change some permissions.  I did so in Filezilla, but it resetted itself anyway and still won't work
[22:55] <nmvictor> timothy_: do chmod +x <filename>  first
[22:55] <timothy_> i did but it still says that i dont have permission
[22:55] <timothy_> ok let me go try that
[22:55] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[22:56] <Pythack> RHorse > VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XP4m32 (rev 91)
[22:56] <nmvictor> timothy_: what file is that, the package you are trying to install
[22:56] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: thanks
[22:57] <guntbert> !scanner | MaGicMaX you are welcome, and
[22:57] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: i was hoping i wouldnt have to buy a new one, i have a Canon Lide 90 which seems to be unsuported.... :(
[22:58] <RHorse> Pythack that card is not very well supported.
[22:58] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: I don't know the list by heart :-), but you see - several manufacturers still don't release their specifications, so support for them is difficult...
[22:58] <NoelJB> MaGicMaX, I recommend HP and only HP for linux.  Someone else was recommending Epson, too.  Either way, you want a company that stands behind its products on linux, with support and drivers.
[22:59] <Pythack> RHorse > But is there any solution?
[22:59] <nmvictor> timothy_: did it work?
[22:59] <RHorse> Pythack what is the lappie you have, I'm curious
[22:59] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: i dont even see Canon on the list :(
[22:59] <Pythack> RHorse > It's a Toshiba.
[22:59] <NoelJB> MaGicMaX, Canon does not support linux.
[22:59] <Pythack> RHorse > And is there any solution?
[23:00] <MaGicMaX> NoelJB: ok, ill look into some HP ones then
[23:00] <MaGicMaX> NoelJB: i just want a USB 2.0 cheap little simple scanner, for like under $60 preferably
[23:01] <blueskies1977> I have never had a scanner not work with Ubuntu
[23:01] <RHorse> Pythack all I was able to find was this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=319261 HIH
[23:02] <Pythack> Ok thanks RHorse .
[23:02] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: canon *is* there, but mainly unsupported - http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/canon-lide-90.html

[23:05] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: hmm, my scanner isnt there :P
[23:05] <RenagadeX> I installed a faulty driver from ATI and cant boot into Ubuntu
[23:05] <blueskies1977> I have been working with fprint. The problem is is that lsusb shows it as a mass storage device
[23:06] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: didn't you say LIDE 90?
[23:06] <RenagadeX> guntbert, sorry. I was trying to find a solution without asking
[23:06] <Slart> RenagadeX: you get a working command prompt?
[23:06] <NoelJB> blueskies1977, I see.  Well, if you don't have the right type of chip thinkfinger (notice the THINK part of the name) won't help, either.
[23:06] <RenagadeX> Slart:  nope
[23:06] <zatoichi> so if i cat /dev/sda what would happen ? :)
[23:06] <MatBoy> wow unr is nice
[23:06] <blueskies1977> can you get to the shell prompt renagdex
[23:06] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: yes
[23:06] <Slart> RenagadeX: can you boot into the recovery mode?
[23:06] <RenagadeX> yes
[23:06] <timothy_> hey u there
[23:06] <timothy_> hey  luke
[23:07] <RenagadeX> Slart: I can
[23:07] <NoelJB> blueskies1977, both thinkfinger (Ubuntu and Fedora < 11) and fprint (Fedora 11) work for me.
[23:07] <ChaoticXSinZ> Can anyone help me with compiz/flash problems?
[23:07] <RenagadeX> Slart: but I dont know what to do
[23:07] <guntbert> RenagadeX: no problem, but you can and should use /msg ubottu .... for this in the future :-)
[23:07] <RenagadeX> lol ok
[23:07] <blueskies1977> The other part of the problem is that I'm on a 64bit machine so some of the tools I have come across don't work (easily anyway)
[23:07] <Slart> RenagadeX: hmm.. there is a command to reconfigure graphics drivers.. something like "dpkg-reconfigure Xorg" or something like that
[23:07] <endri> no i have two hardisks. i am booting from the second one hdb3. hdc is the cdroom i think
[23:08] <Slart> RenagadeX: I can't remember exactly
[23:08] <RenagadeX> Slart:  I'll try google again
[23:08] <NoelJB> blueskies1977, same here: 64 bit.  Haven't used a 32 bit system in years.
[23:08] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: then the page http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/canon-lide-90.html tells you that your scanner is not supported :-(( sorry
[23:08] <RenagadeX> Slart: BTW is the command prompt/terminal the same for windows/linux/macintosh?
[23:09] <MaGicMaX> guntbert: well that blows :P
[23:09] <blueskies1977> no, the command prompt has different ways of working to windows
[23:09] <blueskies1977> similar to mac though
[23:09] <RenagadeX> Slart:  I know Linux and Mac are the same
[23:09] <NoelJB> RenagadeX, no.  Mac and linux uses a real shell (BASH), Windows uses Redmond invented trash with no features.
[23:09] <RenagadeX> oh
[23:09] <RenagadeX> ok
[23:09] <Slart> RenagadeX: well.. the term "command prompt" means mostly the same no matter what system you're using.. but how it works and what you can do with it.. and most importantly.. how to do it can be very different
[23:09]  * shamm wnaders off to play some serious game.
[23:09] <guntbert> MaGicMaX: tough on you - sorry
[23:09] <ChaoticXSinZ> Can anyone help with some compiz and flash issues I have?
[23:10] <endri> how can i understand if it is a driver problem or a problem of the cdrom
[23:10] <llkkjj> j #linuxac/
[23:10] <nmvictor> endri: nop, the hdc cant be th cdrom,
[23:10] <NoelJB> ChaoticXSinZ, be specific and perhaps someone can.
[23:10] <blueskies1977> I have not found any way to speed up flash with compiz running myself, sorry
[23:10] <RenagadeX> Slart: found this:: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[23:10] <RHorse> ChaoticXSinZ how much memory do you have?
[23:10] <ChaoticXSinZ> 3 gib (shows up as 2.9)
[23:10] <Slart> RenagadeX: ah.. that looks like it
[23:10] <blueskies1977> I have to disable compiz on my netbook to be able to watch flash at all
[23:10] <ChaoticXSinZ> gig*
[23:11] <RenagadeX> Slart: do I get to terminal from live CD??
[23:11] <endri> nmvictor   if i do fdisk -l i have  hda and hdb
[23:11] <ChaoticXSinZ> The problem is that for example on youtube the video plays too fast
[23:11] <Slart> RenagadeX: yes, you can get to a terminal from a live cd
[23:11] <fosa_> how do i get google to be the american version?  (i'm in korea)
[23:11] <RenagadeX> ok
[23:11] <nmvictor> endri: the cdrom should be /dev/scd0
[23:11] <NoelJB> blueskies1977, really?  I've never had that problem.  remind me not to buy whatever brand of PC you're using.
[23:11] <RHorse> ChaoticXSinZ what graphics card?
[23:11] <ChaoticXSinZ> Intel
[23:12] <NoelJB> fosa_, should be on the google front page.
[23:12] <NoelJB> fosa_, I've had to do that when in Amsterdam.
[23:12] <endri> nmvictor   but i dont have a 3rd hardisk. how can i know then which of the hardisks gives me the problem
[23:12] <ChaoticXSinZ> I'm using X_Updates and xorg-edgers PPA too.
[23:12] <blueskies1977> it is a low powered netbook with all the effect turned on. I am really asking for trouble anyway :)
[23:12] <fosa_> NoelJB, is it in my accounts or just a link?
[23:12] <VCoolio> fosa_: www.google.com/ncr  will ignore browser locale settings
[23:13] <NoelJB> fosa_, a link, as I recall.
[23:13] <ChaoticXSinZ> I don't have the speed problems in fullscreen mode though.
[23:13] <RHorse> ChaoticXSinZ compiz is just a windows decorator. It changes the borders  and such stuff.
[23:13] <fosa_> VCoolio, thanks for that stopgap :)
[23:13] <blueskies1977> are you on a 64bit machine ChaoticXSinZ
[23:13] <nmvictor> endri: maybe grub is looking for boot files in the wrong place(though i doubt that),are you sure you havent tried anything with your filessystem?ok,what othe message is displayed other than the line you gave/
[23:13] <nmvictor> endri: *?
[23:14] <ChaoticXSinZ> RHorse: I know though when I switch to metacity flash works fine it also works fine in fullscreen mode.
[23:14] <ChaoticXSinZ> blueskies1977: Yes
[23:14] <blueskies1977> with the beta flash driver?
[23:15] <ChaoticXSinZ> no.
[23:15] <ChaoticXSinZ> Flash from repos
[23:15] <ChaoticXSinZ> brb 10min
[23:15] <blueskies1977> I have always used the beta driver and it seems to work fairly well
[23:15] <NoelJB> flash from repos is 32 bit.  I stay far away from it, and install from Adobe Labs.
[23:17] <nmvictor> whois endri
[23:17] <endri> sorry i was looking in the logs
[23:17] <endri> http://pastebin.com/m2d59614b

[23:18] <endri> this my complete dmesg output
[23:18] <blueskies1977> might install it on one of my laptops to give it a more thorough testing

[23:21] <fosa_> bluejeans, :)  thanks!
[23:21] <carrie_555> Where can I find programs like "mv", "cd", "ls" ? where are they ?
[23:22] <DJNomad> can anyone tell me what the difference is in package manager between "mark for removal" and "mark for complete removal" ?
[23:22] <bluejeans> carrie_555: /bin/ /usr/bin/, /usr/local/bin
[23:22] <nmvictor> endri: dmesg doesnt seem so helpful, how about some log for boot, grub(or your bootloader) or anything rlated to booting, that might help
[23:22] <DJNomad> I am getting rid of lxde and finally decided to ask this time instead of just doing the removal
[23:23] <carrie_555> DJNomad: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=388278
[23:23] <DJNomad> thanks carrie
[23:24] <endri> nmvictor: syslog?
[23:24] <blueskies1977> I always use apt-get at the command line and add --purge
[23:24] <mnaines> I found out how to make hard drives hot-swappable in Ubuntu
[23:24] <nmvictor> endri: not really, anything that sound like booting?
[23:24] <blueskies1977> removes any settings folders in the home directory
[23:25] <guntbert> carrie_555: but some (cd, ls) are bash internal - so you might not find them in the file system at all
[23:25] <carrie_555> bluejeans: I cant find "cd" in any of those folders. Any hint ?
[23:25] <carrie_555> ah
[23:25] <KurtKraut> I'm trying to use Ubuntu on my Eee but many applications exceeds the screen limits, so I cannot press the buttons of YES or NO at the bottom of the screen. If I press ALT and try to drag it, Ubuntu does not allow any window parto to be dragged of screen. So how can I use Ubuntu in small screens or allow it to move the top of the window off the screen as any other linux distro?
[23:25] <carrie_555> thanks guntbert
[23:25] <ChaoticXSinZ> NoelJB: I was actually using the beta driver from adobe labs, 64bit one, but had to revert to repos one to get one flash application to work.
[23:26] <Flannel> blueskies1977: No, purging won't remove the stuff in your homedir
[23:26] <DJNomad> ok I got another question,I have a friend that has a laptop and I have talked him into using ubuntu from usb disk ,is there a easy way to create this for him
[23:26] <mnaines> ChaoticXSinZ, I just use the Adobe driver in Synaptic
[23:26] <DJNomad> KurtKraut, are you using netbook remix ?
[23:26] <guntbert> carrie_555: you are welcome, have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[23:26] <KurtKraut> DJNomad: no, I want to use the regular Ubuntu.
[23:26] <DJNomad> that would be perfect for my friend but he does not have a atom pc
[23:27] <mnaines> DJNomad, you're better off just having it install from a CD
[23:27] <blueskies1977> My mistake, thought it did
[23:27] <Flannel> DJNomad: Are you looking to install from USB? or run from USB?
[23:27] <blueskies1977> never checked really
[23:27] <DJNomad> thanks mnaines
[23:27] <guntbert> !who | blueskies1977, btw
[23:27] <DJNomad> Flannel I think he wants to run from to start out
[23:27] <blueskies1977> from 8.10 onwards there is a menu item in Ubuntu to create usb (in administration IIRC)
[23:28] <Flannel> DJNomad: Alright.  Do you have an Ubuntu system?
[23:28] <mnaines> DJNomad, Ubuntu will give you the option of "Try Ubuntu without any changes to your computer" when the install screen comes up
[23:28] <endri> nmvictor: i cant find any. messages kern.log  are the ones i found
[23:28] <KurtKraut> I have a small screen (an Eee PC). Many windows exceeds the screen limits. How can I drag a window beyond screen limits while pressing ALT?
[23:28] <DJNomad> friend is from another state so I cant help him in same room etc,he dont know how to burn a image as of right now
[23:29] <carrie_555> by the way, does anyone know if there is a command that makes a "change directory" to the folder visited before? (not "cd ..")
[23:29] <mnaines> DJNomad, its simple - download the image then use a CD burner program to burn the ISO image onto the disk

[23:29] <Flannel> DJNomad: Alright.  All recent Ubuntu systems come with a utility to make a USB drive booty thing.  If he has access to a system with a CDrom, he can do that.
[23:29] <DJNomad> mnaines,  thats what I think I am gonna have to tell him to do
[23:29] <nmvictor> endri: you could do cat syslog | grep boot |>~/boot.log then paste the contents of boot.log in your home directory or if you have pastebinit installee then you can redirect the output to pastebinit directly with  cat syslog| grep boot | pastebinit  then get me the url
[23:30] <Flannel> DJNomad: Then he'll be able to create a USB drive that'll boot and be his system, better than a liveCD, since he can store stuff on it, etc.
[23:30] <DJNomad> Flannel I tried to make one for him I was gonna torrent it but it requires me to have the usb drive here
[23:30] <mnaines> DJNomad, just a piece of advice, though...You best do the install yourself.  If he's not very skilled with a computer, he should not install operating systems himself
