[00:00] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: five different versions of APT-based linux. I could see an RPM version, an APT version, and a pacman version, and a portage version, to get the feet wet in different ways
[00:01] <dacaro_> sexysara i did this
[00:01] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: but five of all the same version baffles me
[00:01] <BoBo_> i have 2 rounters one infront of the other when i forward port 80 one one to the other then to my windows pc it works great if i then switch it to my linux pc it wont load from the outside ip adress but it works from all the other adresses
[00:01] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: I just would like to understand, for the sake of curiosity
[00:01] <dacaro_> but dont

[00:03] <dacaro_> 10.4
[00:03] <timmybobcat14> ohzie- mmmm...I'm just wondering how you could see so much of my computer. ha ha ha. I'm not aware I have all those. I did have debian mint  and linux mint installed but removed the Debian mint. I then installed Ubunyu 8.04 and finally now ubuntu 10.04. Ubuntu 9.04 has been on here most of the time.
[00:03] <dacaro_> 10.04  portuguese
[00:03] <sexysara> hmmm same here.... are you using Compiz and Emerald by chance?
[00:04] <sexysara> oooh , not English huh haha, I gotcha
[00:04] <tchqvolo> this is my first time in irc
[00:04] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: when I asked you what the other partitions on your system were, I counted five different linux installs. Four ubuntu and one Mint
[00:04] <tchqvolo> nice to see a lot of people in this tiçe
[00:04] <[thor]> tchqvolo: how can we help? please give us as many details as possible
[00:04] <tchqvolo> time
[00:05] <dacaro_> I can not sleep if i dont resolve a error
[00:05] <Note-book> ohzie, Fixed :D
[00:05] <ohzie> Note-book: Grats!
[00:05] <sexysara> dumb question I'm sure... but have you tried Google Dacaro?
[00:06] <dacaro_> yes
[00:06] <timmybobcat14> ohzie-not sure what the 4th ubuntu might be...?
[00:06] <sexysara> k, just making sure :)
[00:06] <tchqvolo> i have a little problem with ubuntu serveur
[00:07] <tchqvolo> ssh is ok but hoz can i configure rsync for windows clients to my server ubuntu
[00:07] <tchqvolo> how
[00:07] <BoBo_> any one here that could help me solve a routing problem?
[00:07] <ohzie> tchqvolo: There are some windows rsync clients. :/
[00:08] <ohzie> tchqvolo: I've never had to use them.
[00:08] <timmybobcat14> ohzie-I was actually using the previous kernal of ubuntu 10.04 which you just so kindly helped me to fix but the latest kernel still has the problem.
[00:08] <itilious> why does split4g still "copy files" even if there are no 4+GB files?
[00:08] <tchqvolo> thx
[00:08] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: oh if you're only getting that with that specific kernel then you need to switch to your old kernel
[00:08] <tchqvolo> ok but how configure rsync in ubuntu serveur
[00:09] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: and if you could file a bug report because a new kernel shouldn't do that at all
[00:09] <bl4ckcomb> itilious, might be a bit-flip caused by Japan's radiation
[00:09] <timmybobcat14> So shall I copy and paste the steps you used here and if I can open the new kernel apply them there? No no I seemed to have the problem with both kernels but now not with this one only the latest one.
[00:10] <timmybobcat14> ohzie-how do you file a bug report?
[00:10] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: I don't know, I don't file them
[00:10] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: I just use old stuff that has no or very few bugs
[00:10] <bastidrazor> !bug | timmybobcat14
[00:10] <timmybobcat14> ohzie-ha ha ha ha
[00:10] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: because I'm lazy
[00:10] <itilious> bl4ckcomb, :p
[00:10] <itilious> opps

[00:14] <suicidolt> achem, ctrl+alt+f1 apparently does NOT open the terminal....
[00:14] <suicidolt> er...f2 or whatever
[00:15] <ohzie> timmybobcat14: np
[00:17] <s5fs> suicidolt: alt+f2 pulls up run
[00:17] <suicidolt> yeah, not the terminal...
[00:17] <suicidolt> locked me out of everything, my password wasn't even working
[00:18] <s5fs> suicidolt: yeah, you flipped to a virtual terminal
[00:18] <suicidolt> s5fs: thanks.  Did you see my question to you earlier?
[00:18] <s5fs> suicidolt: ctrl+alt+f7 brings you back, i think. at least it does on my system.
[00:19] <s5fs> suicidolt: no, i went and made garlic knots, but i'm back for a couple min. get the multitouch working?
[00:19] <s5fs> suicidolt: okay, so you probably need to create the directories first, as you said
[00:20] <suicidolt> no, there is no hal folder (is it called a folder) in /etc
[00:20] <suicidolt> and is there a way to figure see a directory tree without being inside a progrem like gedit?
[00:20] <s5fs> suicidolt: okay, so from the console, run "sudo mkdir -p  /etc/hal/fdi/policy"
[00:21] <suicidolt> is that a good idea? in the site it says "restart hal" to me it sounds like hal is something I should install first
[00:21] <Note-book> how do I open the Ubuntu service manager in KDE?
[00:21] <s5fs> suicidolt: try restarting it, if you get an error let us know
[00:22] <Note-book> how do you manager services in ubuntu under KDE?
[00:22] <timmybobcat14> ohzie- if it's not too much trouble can I ask you what were the first instuctions you asked me to in or should I have a copy of them somewhere on my terminal or something.
[00:23] <Note-book> never mind, found
[00:23] <zruty> How can I tell I have an intel or smd video device?
[00:23] <cybernd> q: is it possible to enable upstart logging in 10.10? for example "start ssh" supresses warnings like "host key not found" while the old init.d one displays valuable feedback
[00:24] <s5fs> suicidolt: you can use "Places" to view directories, kinda like in Windows (but crappier). or you can use the shell.
[00:24] <suicidolt> s5fs: command not found error
[00:25] <s5fs> suicidolt: okay, then yeah, probably need to install the hal. i haven't messed with the hal in linux before, much different than windows probably.
[00:25] <suicidolt> what is hal?
[00:26] <s5fs> suicidolt: "hardware abstraction layer"
[00:26] <Jordan_U> suicidolt: HAL is an obsolete system for managing hardware, it's been replaced by other projects like devicekit. I would *not* recommend installing it.
[00:26] <suicidolt> is the tutorial I'm reading out of date.  She gives a command to test it that also does not work
[00:27] <s5fs> Jordan_U: good feedback, thanks.
[00:27] <Jordan_U> s5fs: You're welcome.
[00:27] <Jordan_U> suicidolt: What are you trying to accomplish?
[00:27] <s5fs> suicidolt: Jordan_U is probably on the right track here. I'd dig around for a more recent article, I'm sorry I didn't check it sooner.

[00:50] <suicidolt> almost everything says G or GL in front of it...what does that stand for?

[00:51] <Evan1> When I run ubuntu from the live CD, and I play the game Armagetron Advanced, the fps is the same as it is on Windows, but when I install ubuntu, the fps on the game is too low for it to be played well.  Is there anybody who can help me?
[00:53] <Evan1> I have an integrated intel graphics card in a laptop if that helps
[00:53] <nictrasavios> Ill take the abundant silence as an "ask it here" , When i install windows 7 via virtual box, it stays on 0% for the "Expanding files" part, and will not leave 0%.
[00:54] <[thor]> Evan1: go to System > Preferences > Appearance [[ Visual Effects ]]
[00:54] <Evan1> do u think that they are slowing my system down?
[00:54] <Ben64> nictrasavios: this an ubuntu channel, not a windows one : /
[00:54] <Ben64> Evan1: it's possible
[00:54] <nictrasavios> The disk has stopped and nothings being read, so i assume its frozen. and i know, this is virtual box.
[00:54] <Evan1> Ill try, thanks for the help :)
[00:55] <[thor]> Evan1: it is worth trying.. set it to normal, or none, and try armagetron again
[00:55] <felixsulla> At one point I installed Jungledisk (Amazon's cloud backup), it was I believe from a dpkg or something, not through Synaptic, how do I get rid of it? The opening screen starts at every login?
[00:56] <dabbish> how do I get what's on the top right of this screenshot? the system info and shortcuts: http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/_media/screenshots/9.04-terminator-terminal-transparency.png?cache=
[00:56] <nictrasavios> Ben64, i am using virtual box. this disk has worked time and time again outside of the box, so it is a VB problem, thus a supported linux application is having an issue, as such i am in full ability to ask it here, since when i asked no one reffered me to a specific channel for this information, it is assumed to be asked in general help.
[00:57] <richardcavell> I want to easily transfer files from my virtualized Ubuntu 10.10 to my Mac that is on the same LAN.  What's the best thing?  Dropbox?
[00:57] <[thor]> felixsulla: if that is the package name, you could use " dpkg -r jungledisk && dpkg -p jungledisk "
[00:57] <nictrasavios> Now, intead of useless foreplay on what is and isnt supported, since if this wasnt i wouldnt ask. Dose anyone know why the disk refussed to work properly under the virtual box enviroment.
[00:57] <Socky_> Hey guys.  I just bought a asus eee 1215n and i installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 10.10  When x booted up i installed the nvidia restricted drivers.  I ran the nvidia-xconfig to create my new config.  my nvidia driver shows up in lsmod, but i get no screen found when i start x.  I did a nvidia-detector and it returned "none"  Any ideas whats going on?
[00:57] <felixsulla> [thor]: It doesn't show in my dpkg list though
[00:58] <nictrasavios> Or can you reffer to me to somewhere i may get proper assistance with this issue.

[01:02] <JediMaster> I'm having a real headache with my nVidia Corporation MCP79 Ethernet adaptor, I'm getting 750Mbps + one way and 150kbps (yes, 0.15Mbps) the other. I've tested it with netperf and iperf, samba and ftp file transfers, and all show about the same. If I swap out from the inbuilt gigabit adaptor and try the 10/100 USB adaptor, it goes to 93.6Mbps both ways, any idea what's wrong with it? This is
[01:02] <JediMaster> using CAT5e cable (tried different cables) directly from one machine to the other or through gigabit switches (tried two switches too)
[01:02] <nictrasavios> syrinx_,  CS5 fails 100%, and no mobile device support for itunes.

[01:03] <z2442> hey
[01:03] <erik333> I had trouble installing win7 on a desktop computer at one point. it wouldn't install until i installed it to the first hard drive (or was it the one set first in boot order in BIOS?)
[01:03] <nictrasavios> I have exhasted all other options, if i had not, i would not be asking for any support. As my research entails, this is the only option for me and what the group requires from its software. Now, with all the backround out of the way... may we get to the root of this issue.
[01:03] <Altrix> Hi all,
[01:03] <erik333> it might be that it is a win7 isntaller issues rather than a virtualbox issue
[01:03] <Altrix> Have an annoying problem with a clients PC
[01:03] <z2442> guys my package manager is bieng a pain in the ass
[01:04] <felixsulla> Does anyone know how to remove a program that is not in Synaptic that starts up on bootup?
[01:04] <nictrasavios> Something in virtual box ose is stoping windows 7 , in all its versions, 32 and 64 bit from expanding their files and thus, continuing the installation of the system.
[01:04] <Altrix> The client in question goes to update their ubuntu install say from 10.04 - 10.10..
[01:04] <erik333> had to search the web for half a day until i managed to install it after correctly tweaking BIOS settings and moving sta cables around
[01:04] <Altrix> and obviously it fails..
[01:04] <nictrasavios> I am asking for the help of the masses, in solving this, are their any suggestions?
[01:05] <format120> nictrasavios, install wine, then install itunes in wine, no vbox needed, use #winehq for wine related questions.
[01:05] <erik333> try installing ubuntu to that vbox using the same vbox settings to verify the HD works then
[01:05] <nictrasavios> format120, if you tried it yourself, you would know that my iphone would not connect to itunes, since wine has no usb connections that are up to "non beta" quality, and i refuse to use beta technology for my buiness.
[01:06] <erik333> the win7 installer has been known to be rather buggy
[01:06] <Habstinat> Hey, having problems with my Ubuntu installation on a Pavilion dm4. It installed fine, and it boots, but I get no output from the screen. I get sounds though, and by blindly typing in my password I'm able to log in and I hear the login sound, so the system is definitely running. Any ideas?
[01:06] <nictrasavios> format120, then i still require the entire CS5 collection to fully operate.
[01:06] <format120> had you "e\xhasted all other options," you would have found this, nictrasavios, http://www.mikesubuntu.com/2007/10/itunes-great-with-wine-yep-its-true/
[01:06] <nictrasavios> erik333, i have verified it with a debian install.
[01:06] <Dankbuntu> sounds to me like the problem here, is you own an iphone ;)
[01:07] <syrinx_> Dankbuntu: yep.
[01:07] <JediMaster> does anyone know if there is an alternative to forcedeth driver for the nvidia gigabit built-in ethernet?
[01:07] <nictrasavios> format120, i tried that. minimal success.
[01:07] <Dankbuntu> sounds right to me
[01:07] <Habstinat> I can boot from a liveUSB and chroot to make any changes to the OS by the way.
[01:07] <nictrasavios> format120, my iphone , and my colleges ipod touch would not, may i repeat, would 100% not connect or be regestered by the itunes operating within wine.
[01:07] <Altrix> Anyone know a stable user friendly O.S. that dosn't fail on it's updates???
[01:07] <syrinx_> Habstinat: display works with the liveusb?
[01:08] <rreyes> hi all... my laptop overheats with ubuntu 10.10... any ideas on what could it be? No overheat happens with with win7
[01:08] <Habstinat> syrinx_: Yes, and it worked during installation too.
[01:08] <sexysara> Rreyes, maybe update the bios
[01:08] <format120> I had simmaler issues with vbox, and usb, install guest additions in your vbox install
[01:08] <format120> nictrasavios,
[01:08] <KramB> What program can I use to manage my iPod Tough 4G?  Effectively.
[01:08] <Altrix> rreyes clock you're CPU speed down..
[01:08] <sexysara> I had same problem with my lappy and updated the bios and problem fixed
[01:08] <Altrix> or change you're graphics to a lower setting
[01:08] <Dankbuntu> KramB, a 10lb sledge works great on all apple products ;)
[01:09] <Dankbuntu> Effectively and all
[01:09] <foowaffle> hi
[01:09] <natrixnatrix89> Dankbuntu: why do you hate apple so much?
[01:09] <Dankbuntu> because i can
[01:09] <KramB> Dankbuntu: How funny, but in all seriousness; any suggestions?  Or does anyone have one.
[01:09] <rreyes> sexysara: interesting
[01:09] <foowaffle> can someone help me share the net from linux to windows?
[01:09] <rreyes> let me see if there are any bios updates
[01:09] <Dankbuntu> idk anything about apple products because i hate everything steve jobs stands for, sorry
[01:10] <nictrasavios> format120, even decompiling the itunes exe, installing all of its parts one by one, everything installed fine. Exepect for the mobile device support. we are fully capabile of such an operation and as i have said, exausted all other options. I am seeking help since none of us know much about virtualization, but we have research being done at this very second.
[01:10] <Habstinat> KramB: http://lbimobiledevice.org
[01:10] <natrixnatrix89> foowaffle: what's the problem?
[01:10] <sexysara> rreyes: yah I have an Acer Apsire 5315.... the thing would not ever boot right, just a thought
[01:10] <natrixnatrix89> foowaffle: sharing is very simple
[01:10] <Habstinat> KramB: Sorry, meant http://libimobiledevice.org
[01:10] <foowaffle> i new to linux
[01:10] <format120> what program did you use to decompile the .exe?
[01:10] <KramB> Habstinat: It's okay, Chrome got it right for me.
[01:10] <natrixnatrix89> foowaffle: right click and click sharing options
[01:11] <KramB> Habstinat:  Thank you btw.
[01:11] <edbian> format120, It is impossible to decompile because there is more than 1 way to write a given program :(
[01:11] <nictrasavios> Aha! i went into the auditing of windows 7, reconfigured a few options, then boosted the ram given to the installer from 4gb to 16gb , leavin only 18gb of ram for ubuntu, but that is enough.
[01:11] <foowaffle> click where?
[01:11] <nictrasavios> It is workin now, the installer, as one of you said, is very buggy.
[01:11] <Altrix> Srlsly Ubuntu, this is stupid why have the Fing feature there if it only works 10% of the time!!!!?
[01:11] <format120> exactly, edbian
[01:11] <Habstinat> KramB: It should come preinstalled on Ubuntu 10.04 and up.
[01:12] <format120> nictrasavios, how much ram did you say was installed in your system?
[01:12] <natrixnatrix89> foowaffle:  on a folder you want to share
[01:12] <BoBo_> having trouble setting up a minecraft server on ubuntu
[01:12] <sexysara> <--- New to linux too, been using it on and off for some time now, but now stritly linux user, one book that has helped me is "Linux PhraseBook"... Highly remcomeded for new linux users
[01:12] <KramB> Habstinat: I have Xubuntu, so I do not think it is.
[01:12] <BoBo_> same problem i am having with apache
[01:12] <Habstinat> syrinx_: Any thoughts?
[01:13] <BoBo_> i can conect to it localy and it is port forwarded properly but i cannot connect from outside my network
[01:13] <sexysara> bitch
[01:13] <nictrasavios> format120, i never said any before that last statement, but we run a RAID array of 100TB, configured with 7 motherboards, and 34GB of ram for each system. bassicly, it is 7 computers wired into one, that feed of a central database.
[01:14] <erik333> holy mother of god :)
[01:14] <syrinx_> Habstinat: I don't know much about Xubuntu
[01:14] <userX> is Tux magazine a good reference source even though it hasn't published since 2007?
[01:14] <Habstinat> syrinx_: I'm not on Xubuntu?
[01:14] <userX> for a newbie
[01:14] <erik333> that's one badass computer
[01:14] <format120> oh, a cluster, cool nictrasavios, but still, you said you decompiled the .exe, how?\
[01:14] <Habstinat> syrinx_: Ubuntu 10.10.
[01:15] <syrinx_> sorry, read that wrong
[01:15] <syrinx_> Habstinat: do the TTYs work at all?
[01:15] <nictrasavios> format120, We make software ourselves, i send it over to member #4 who is running windows 7  on his system, he has the full microsoft devel platform.
[01:16] <nictrasavios> its not my job to know what his workings are. my job is the linux part, and since this computer is work, and personal, i needed my personal affects on it.
[01:17] <Habstinat> syrinx_: Just got it to work. Guess second time's the charm. Thanks for your help anyways.
[01:17] <format120> ahh, ok nictrasavios
[01:17] <natrixnatrix89> Is there anything good about windows?
[01:17] <syrinx_> nope
[01:18] <erik333> well hardware/software support... due to the near monopoly they have in some markets
[01:18] <linuxNewb> is there a way to setup my server so i dont have to do domainjoin-cli every time it reboots?
[01:19] <nictrasavios> We have 2 who work on linux, i am the head of this partnership. 2 who work on Unix, and 2 who work on DOS , our head works on a master system , a cluster within a cluster, he operates all 3 at once, his is not connected to our cluster, but his assistant is.
[01:19] <natrixnatrix89> nictrasavios: so why do you need to connect to an iphone so badly anyway?
[01:20] <erik333> music?  2) I enjoy developing for IOS in my spare time, and the thrid, we are currently exploiting it, we pass on exploits we find to the dev team know as "Chronic Dev Team"
[01:21] <format120> yep, like my dad, whos wireless card just died
[01:21] <nova> has anyone seen this error before? (Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168d-1.fw for module r8169) i cant seem to find any solution on google.
[01:21] <Jordan_U> format120: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/category/NETWORK
[01:21] <format120> thanks
[01:21] <Jordan_U> format120: You're welcome.
[01:22] <nictrasavios> The SHAtter exploit was found by us, but we leave our name out, giving credit to whoever wants the heat. The S, in shatter is Savios. The other 2 i am not at my liberty to say
[01:22] <natrixnatrix89> Is there finally some good video editing software on ubuntu?
[01:22] <natrixnatrix89> because previously all the ones I tried didn't work really well
[01:22] <nictrasavios> We are a group of white (hmm... maybe grey, but we call ourselves white) Hats. if you dont know what that is, you have no need in knowing.
[01:23] <Jordan_U> !ot | nictrasavios
[01:23] <gabe_> hello, I have a problem that I cannot find an answer for. Please help me... I have a desktop that has a wlan0 interface (<IP_ADDRESS>/24), which connects to my ISP's router and to the Internet. I also have an eth0 interface (<IP_ADDRESS>/28) that connects to a Cisco Terminal Access Server (I have a small rack of routers and switches). The problem is that when I use the wired connection, even though the wireless connection does not go do
[01:23] <gabe_> wn, I'm not able to browse the Internet and I can't understand why
[01:23] <nictrasavios> Oh, sorry i forget myself. If anyone wishes further information , private message me. I shall be off now. but i shall remain online for those curious.
[01:24] <natrixnatrix89> gabe_: have you set the right gateway for cable connection?
[01:25] <nictrasavios> Oh and jordan, i am about to PM you.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> gabe_: You can only (easily) have one default gateway. My guess is that someting on the ethernet network is advertising a default gateway (and wired networks are by default prefered over wireless).
[01:25] <erik333> you can chat in IRC but not browse?
[01:25] <cntb> whta is your default gateway gabe_
[01:25] <gabe_> natrixnatrix89: thanks for responding,. The configuration on wlan0 is <IP_ADDRESS>/24 gw: <IP_ADDRESS> and for eth0 is <IP_ADDRESS>/28 gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:26] <natrixnatrix89> and is that the address of your router?
[01:26] <Jordan_U> gabe_: Setup a static connection for eth0 with no default gateway.
[01:27] <gabe_> when I plug my  terminal server to eth0, botwh wlan0 and eth0 show as up and I can even  ping the IPS's router at <IP_ADDRESS> but I can't browse the Internet unless I unplug the wired one
[01:27] <gabe_> eth0 without gw?
[01:27] <gabe_> let me try that :)
[01:27] <gabe_> erik333: right now eth0 is down, otherwise I'll lose connection
[01:28] <gabe_> if you see me getting disconnected, it's because eth0 is coming up... let me try what Jordan said though. I'll be back if I'm cut off
[01:28] <nova> is anyone else having problems with linux-firmware 1.38.5?
[01:28] <erik333> it should work
[01:30] <nictrasavios> Jordan_U, you receved my messages?
[01:30] <Jordan_U> nictrasavios: Yes.
[01:31] <illmortal> anyone know a good application for ubuntu 10.10 to stress test my CPU?
[01:31] <nsahoo> i can't connect to the transmission-daemon using a browser now, how should I troubleshoot?
[01:31] <illmortal> i just O.C.ed it to 4.02 wanna see how stable it is on linux side
[01:31] <nictrasavios> Jordan_U, i am quite serious, if anything comes up, you have my loyal hand, my word, and my honor within your grasp. as dose the entire community.
[01:33] <nictrasavios> illmortal, try the disk utility. Its within the system > Administration . it will benchmark your system
[01:33] <illmortal> disk utility?..
[01:34] <illmortal> that's just for HDD, isn't it?
[01:34] <nelliee> I went from ubuntu 10.10 to 10.04 and I always unplug my spair hard drive before I do so to prevent data loss and now I cant see my storage drive in ubuntu but it shows up in bios as plugged in. do I need to re mount it or regain permission or what?
[01:34] <illmortal> I wanna measure out my CPU's performance and make sure it's stable
[01:35] <nictrasavios> illmortal, yes it is, if your looking for ram speed and so on then i would push it, try some video editing software ;) they tend to put your CPU into overdrive.
[01:35] <nictrasavios> illmortal, but i am sure there is a proper benchmarking utility, as i have never had need, i have never looked, but i shall now for you.
[01:36] <rww> !info cpuburn
[01:36] <gabe_> Jordan_U: it worked... thank you so much, I would have never thought about that
[01:36] <gabe_> but why? I don't understand why omitting the gw for eth0
[01:36] <nictrasavios> illmortal, go to the software center, and search "benchmark" , there are 4 utilties that appear, the first is what you want, but i shall try it myself and make sure
[01:36] <Jordan_U> gabe_: You're welcome.
[01:36] <nelliee> can some one help me find a storage drive in ubuntu on a fresh install? not seeing it under places or computer
[01:37] <illmortal> ok, i'll check
[01:37] <Jordan_U> gabe_: Do you understand what a default gateway is?
[01:37] <edbian> nelliee, Look in computer
[01:37] <gabe_> I sure do, but I'm thinking each interface belongs to a different network (<IP_ADDRESS>/24 and <IP_ADDRESS>/28)
[01:37] <gabe_> so each one has their own gw right?
[01:38] <nelliee> edbian, i cant find it in computer or in places
[01:38] <gabe_> at least that's what I thought
[01:38] <Jordan_U> gabe_: Routing tables are per host, not per interface.
[01:38] <nictrasavios> illmortal, yes this is what you want, it provides all the information you could ever want :)
[01:38] <edbian> nelliee, What is it?  HDD via USB?
[01:38] <illmortal> ok ^^
[01:38] <gabe_> oh I see... that's why. Thanks for the explanation :)
[01:39] <Jordan_U> gabe_: If an application tries to access ip address <IP_ADDRESS> the OS needs to know which interface to send the packet to.
[01:39] <nictrasavios> haha..... 35697mb , 1645 used.... ram overkill.
[01:39] <nelliee> edbian,  it is ide and I unpluged to reinstall ubuntu and then pluged it back in and turned pc on . it shows back up in bios and post but not in fresh ubuntu install now
[01:39] <nictrasavios> hmm... that cannot be right...
[01:39] <edbian> nelliee, Does it show up in sudo fdisk -l ?
[01:39] <banker247> anyone use dosbox
[01:40] <nelliee> edbian, ill check
[01:40] <nictrasavios> brand new ram chips, should be either 36000mb or 36864mb ....
[01:40] <KramB> How can I change the size of Docky?  Instead of being like all across one side, like in the middle of it.
[01:40] <nictrasavios> bah.. that will bug my ocd, i know why... just... bah.
[01:41] <gabe_> goodbye everyone and thanks a lot Jordan_U and all those who responded to my issue :)
[01:41] <nelliee> edbian,  yes it show my 120 gig for os and my 250 gig of storage
[01:41] <Jordan_U> gabe_: You're welcome.
[01:42] <edbian> nelliee, What devices are they?  /dev/...  ?
[01:42] <samd> hi, im excecuting a script as root (automaticly executing when i insert a usb) my script works perfectly fine but i cant run any X application from inside the script,  can anyone help me?
[01:42] <Habstina1> syrinx_: Just rebooted and now I'm having the same problem. Odd. Ctrl-Alt-F1 does nothing.
[01:43] <nelliee> edbian, http://pastebin.com/RijHnwKM
[01:43] <edbian> nelliee, reading...
[01:43] <nelliee> edbian,  it is the 250 gig drive
[01:44] <Altrix> Anyone know how to prevent against failed updates?
[01:44] <Habstina1> edbian: Weren't you the one that helped me when I had to add nomodeset via chroot?
[01:44] <edbian> Habstina1, perhaps
[01:45] <Habstina1> edbian: I posted a video on YouTube of my problem? I say this because I happen to have a very similar problem with a different computer today.
[01:45] <edbian> nelliee, sudo mkdir /mnt/storage/ && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/storage
[01:45] <edbian> Habstina1, I don't think I was the one that helped you.  Can you link the video?
[01:46] <nictrasavios> Ah, hallelujah. one or two little bumps since, but windows installed in record time.
[01:47] <nictrasavios> I am now able to operate my personal affects, and now A. is looking into doing the same for the other 7 computers, allowing the to virtualise the other 2 OS they do not run. More compadability. Thank you all
[01:47] <Habstina1> edbian: Except, this time it's on a Pavilion dm4, and the LiveUSB installation worked fine, but when I try to boot I get no screen output and Ctrl-Alt-F1 does nothing (that I can see). The OS is still running though; I can hear the startup sounds and when I blindly type in my password to log in after a few seconds I hear the login sound. The display on my LiveUSB works fine and we can use it to make changes.
[01:47] <nictrasavios> I owe you all a good debt, if you ever need anything, and i do mean anything, from legit to shady, i am here for you all. Thank you and have a great day.
[01:48] <nictrasavios> I will be sure to provide ubuntu,virtual box, xchat and gnome with a sizeable donation.
[01:48] <edbian> Habstina1, Does the laptop have an nvidia graphics card?
[01:48] <nictrasavios> Good day.
[01:48] <nelliee> edbian, do I need to reboot to see it cause It still is not showing up yet
[01:49] <edbian> Habstina1, How early does the screen go black?
[01:49] <edbian> nelliee, Go to /mnt/storage using nautilus
[01:49] <edbian> nelliee, nautlis /mnt/storage
[01:50] <abby> ello people
[01:50] <nelliee> edbian, thanks I can now see my stuff there.  will it show up in computer or places after reboot though
[01:51] <Habstina1> edbian: I don't think it had a nvidia grapgics card, and the screen goes black very early in the boot process, before any Ubuntu-related text is outputted on the screen.
[01:51] <edbian> nelliee, I should.  I don't know why it didn't.  All I did was mount in manually.  If it doesn't start showing up after reboot come back in here and pastebin /etc/fstab
[01:51] <edbian> Habstina1, Before grub?
[01:52] <edbian> Habstina1, Press shift a whole bunch while the machine is booting, right after BIOS post
[01:52] <nelliee> edbian,   thanks so much for your help . ill reboot and see
[01:52] <edbian> nelliee, No problem
[01:52] <Habstina1> edbian: I'd say so considering I tried bashing both Control keys during boot and I didn't see anything.
[01:53] <edbian> Habstina1, you press shift key to get the grub menu.  Mash on those during boot.  The grub menu should work regardless of this problem.  We just have to get it to show up.
[01:53] <Habstina1> edbian: Here's the card: 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) HD 5450 switchable graphics [HDMI, VGA]
[01:53] <edbian> Habstina1, Then you can add 'nomodeset' at the grub menu and boot and fix normally
[01:53] <edbian> Habstina1, That's strange usually ati cards don't have this problem...
[01:54] <edbian> Habstina1, Try booting while mashing the shift key
[01:54] <Habstina1> edbian: Alright.
[01:54] <digirak> is there an issue normally with ubuntu like sluggish behavior if we have not shut down the sytem for like a couple of days?
[01:55] <giiker> digirak: nop
[01:55] <edbian> digirak, shouldn't.  Check the output of top
[01:55] <digirak> edbian: top?
[01:56] <Habstina1> edbian: Just got into GRUB.
[01:56] <format120> open xterm, enter top
[01:56] <edbian> digirak, It's a command.  Run it in the terminal.  It's like a cli task manager
[01:56] <Habstina1> I'll try adding nomodeset
[01:56] <edbian> Habstina1, aweosme
[01:56] <rekenber> Is there an update that removes all Ubuntu Branding?
[01:56] <edbian> rekenber, Nope
[01:57] <digirak> edbian: is there something I should look for on this
[01:57] <digirak> it says one zombie process
[01:57] <hiexpo> it will show you all the processes running digirak
[01:57] <Habstina1> edbian: Added nomodeset to the very end of my first boot sequence and it didn't seem to change anything.
[01:57] <digirak> hiexpo: yes i see that
[01:58] <edbian> digirak, kill that process
[01:58] <edbian> Habstina1, Mmm, hang on I'll research
[01:58] <nelliee> edbian, after reboot I still have to /mnt/storage to see and now it dose not show the files inside the folder.  no errors or nothing just blank
[01:59] <edbian> Habstina1, Did you install the proprietary fglrx driver?  (Try booting into recovery mode, it's an option in grub)
[01:59] <edbian> nelliee, Does the drive show up in computer or places?
[02:00] <nelliee> edbian,  no
[02:00] <edbian> nelliee, lemme see /etc/fstab in a www.pastebin.com
[02:00] <Habstina1> edbian: I installed a propietary driver right before I started having the problem.
[02:00] <Habstina1> edbian: Good idea. Trying recovery mode
[02:00] <edbian> Habstina1, We need to get that out of there.  Boot into recovery mode.  When you get to the option choose 'drop to a root shell'
[02:01] <magizian> If you want instructions for setting up any of this stuff on ubuntu, msg me.. stuff -> magizian.hopto.org
[02:01] <Habstina1> edbian: Wait
[02:01] <Habstina1> edbian: I see something
[02:01] <nelliee> edbian,  http://pastebin.com/8XdvLnUA
[02:02] <Habstina1> edbian: Seems like only the backlight of my screen is on.
[02:02] <digirak> edbian: how do i find the zombie process using ps?
[02:02] <rww> magizian: Don't advertise in here, please.
[02:02] <edbian> brb
[02:02] <magizian> ps -a -A |more
[02:02] <Habstina1> edbian: In recovery mode, that is. I see some sort of list where the option changes when I press my arrow keys. I can't read it.
[02:02] <Habstina1> edbian: The brightness is very low.
[02:02] <magizian> rww, maybe you should see the stuff first rww.
[02:03] <magizian> it's not in the repositories.. ;-)
[02:03] <Habstina1> edbian: (This is all after I've booted into recovery)
[02:03] <rww> magizian: I clicked your link before saying that.
[02:03] <magizian> name a service I have.
[02:04] <shcherbak> magizian: You need new webmaster, yours sucks
[02:04] <Habstina1> edbian: Very odd.
[02:04] <magizian> did you even enter the site?
[02:05] <shcherbak> magizian:Yes, too many screenshots
[02:05] <Habstina1> edbian: I was able to increase the brightness in recovery mode by using hardware buttons.
[02:05] <magizian> fn f11 ;-)
[02:05] <edbian> Habstina1, not that strange.  Recovery mode is on a different video driver.  Run this sudo apt-get purge fglrx
[02:06] <edbian> digirak, You find the zombie process is marked <defunct> in ps
[02:06] <nelliee> edbian,  sorry did you mean this one   http://pastebin.com/pTaqPjM5
[02:06] <edbian> nelliee, reading...  (that's the correct one)
[02:06] <magizian> anyone know where the source code to npkg is?
[02:06] <Habstina1> edbian: Alright. That command finished.
[02:07] <edbian> nelliee, Very odd.  I don't see anything about the drive in /etc/fstab.  I don't know why it's not being mounted.  ADd this to the end of that file:  '/dev/sdb1    /mnt/storage    ntfs-3g    default,user    0     0
[02:07] <edbian> nelliee, Re-pastebin when it's entered so I can check if it's right
[02:08] <edbian> Habstina1, Did it remove anything or did it say 'no package found'  ?
[02:08] <digirak> edbian: found it but using the system monitor
[02:08] <edbian> magizian, apt-get source npkg
[02:08] <digirak> i killed the process at terminal
[02:08] <edbian> digirak, Then kill it using that
[02:08] <edbian> digirak, Did killing it fix the problem?
[02:08] <digirak> but the process still shows up on the list of process in system manager
[02:09] <magizian> ty edbian.. where will apt-get put it?
[02:09] <edbian> digirak, do this: kill -9 <processID>
[02:09] <digirak> actually the problem came up when downloading a file to a disk
[02:09] <digirak> yes
[02:09] <edbian> magizian, In the current working directory)
[02:09] <magizian> great.
[02:09] <edbian> digirak, use kill -9
[02:09] <edbian> magizian, Glad I could help!
[02:09] <Habstina1> edbian: It removed the package, but after rebooting I'm getting the same problem.
[02:09] <digirak> edbian: yes i did that
[02:10] <illmortal> and another reason to use Linux. I just overclocked my CPU (E8400) to 4.0Ghz and it's running stable thus far.. in fact processor is @ 26 Celcius. While on Windows 7, as soon as I tried to log in.. my computer crashed.
[02:10] <illmortal> Microsoft for the loss.
[02:10] <Habstina1> edbian: I think my boot command still has nomodeset in it, would that matter?
[02:10] <edbian> Habstina1, It wouldn't have saved the changes and it shouldn't matter
[02:10] <digirak> edbian: still shows up
[02:10] <magizian> illmortal, WMHT..
[02:10] <illmortal> WMHT?
[02:10] <edbian> digirak, Look at this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/killing-zombie-process.html
[02:11] <edbian> Habstina1, boot into recovery mode again
[02:11] <Skywalk3r> How does chrome 64bit work in ubuntu? is the flash player working in it?
[02:11] <edbian> Habstina1, I'm looking something up
[02:11] <nelliee> edbian,  it would not let me save
[02:12] <hiexpo> !chromium
[02:12] <edbian> nelliee, You needed to open it with gksudo... e.g. gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[02:12] <magizian> z64 might come out this year.
[02:13] <Skywalk3r> chromium is to recomend?
[02:13] <edbian> Habstina1, what version of Ubuntu is this?
[02:13] <digirak> edbian: it says that kill -9 does not guarantee kill of the zombie process
[02:14] <magizian> top, k, pid, 5
[02:14] <magizian> will kill anything.
[02:14] <Habstina1> edbian: 10.10. Downloaded it today.
[02:14] <edbian> digirak, Yes.  I thought it would go into more detail but it apparently does not.  Hang on
[02:15] <[thor]> digirak: if the process is associated with another process, you need to kill the parent
[02:15] <digirak> edbian: u sure the zombie processes are the issue
[02:15] <[thor]> digirak: a zombie, that is
[02:15] <Glutsch> lo
[02:15] <digirak> [thor]: yes i dont think they have the parents its some random shell process
[02:15] <magizian> whenever I kill the parent in nix, the children stay open and vise versa..
[02:15] <edbian> digirak, Not entirely but you shouldn't have them anyway.    What is the name of the zombie process?
[02:15] <digirak> edbian: sh
[02:15] <edbian> digirak, More directly your machine is slow because of some process taking up a lot of CPU time.  You can see what is taking up the most time using top
[02:16] <edbian> digirak, killall sh
[02:16] <edbian> digirak, (that might kill your terminal)
[02:16] <nelliee> edbian,  im useing gedit and its not letting me save after pasting it in
[02:16] <digirak> edbian: yes
[02:16] <digirak> hold lemme try that
[02:16] <edbian> nelliee, did you gksudo gedit ?
[02:16] <digirak> edbian: na doesnt work
[02:17] <magizian> I was a bit suprised to find the threadded processes stay open when I kill the screens.
[02:17] <edbian> Habstina1, Run this: sudo apt-get purge fglrx
[02:17] <etzerd> ?
[02:17] <prime8> linuxoutlaws
[02:18] <etzerd> where can I download the ubuntu beta version
[02:18] <edbian> Habstina1, (just to make sure) then run this:  sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[02:18] <magizian> sudo get me a girlfriend
[02:18] <edbian> digirak, The best way to kill the process is to restart ;)
[02:18] <rww> etzerd: /join #ubuntu+1, read the channel /topic.
[02:18] <edbian> digirak, Guaranteed to work
[02:18] <digirak> edbian: yeah i thought as much
[02:18] <ledbettj> magizian: is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[02:18] <Gooch> hey everyone, New question... are there any preferred guides for ubuntu server 10.10?  A little gem that you found very useful floating on the net?
[02:18] <Habstina1> edbian: I already ran that. I'll run the other command now.
[02:18] <digirak> hwo do i query a process?
[02:19] <edbian> Habstina1, yeah I know you ran the first one once already
[02:19] <edbian> Habstina1, Run it again ;)
[02:19] <l1ghtn1ng> I just installed Ubuntu, and everything seems to work fine. The only problem is the volume control. It is as if the very first 1/20 of the volume control actually adjusts the volume....once i get past the forst part of the volume control, the sound never gets louder. it is as if 95% of my volume bar does nothing...the entire volume is controlled by the first 5% of the bar
[02:19] <van7hu> lolz
[02:19] <edbian> lighta, Add pcm to your volume thingy and adjust that as well
[02:19] <etzerd> rww: I have an new Sony VIAO i7 when I install the 10.10 it crash, there's no driver for video and the wireless card. the video card is a Nvidia 425 1GB of memory
[02:20] <edbian> lighta, (or use alsamixer in the terminal)
[02:20] <van7hu> may I ask question about irc bot here?
[02:20] <lighta> ?
[02:20] <magizian> which wireless card?
[02:20] <rww> van7hu: which one?
[02:20] <lighta> i'm using pulseaudio
[02:20] <magizian> etzerd..
[02:20] <nelliee> edbian, http://pastebin.com/Sjud5tQN
[02:20] <Habstina1> edbian: "package fglrx is not installed, so not removed"
[02:20] <edbian> lighta, run this in the terminal:  alsamixer   adjust those sliders there are more of them.
[02:20] <etzerd> yes magizian
[02:20] <edbian> Habstina1, good...
[02:20] <van7hu> rww: I just want to ask about schongo
[02:21] <magizian> which wireless car etzerd?
[02:21] <magizian> *card
[02:21] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, what do you mean add PCM? The volume control works fine. I can mute and turn up volume like I want, but the problem is that the first 5 or 10% of the volume bar is the entire spectrum of raising and lowering the volume
[02:21] <Habstina1> edbian: The latter is already the newest version
[02:21] <edbian> lighta, sorry your name auto-completed from l1ghtn1ng and I didn't notice
[02:21] <van7hu> rww:how could I use it?
[02:22] <edbian> Habstina1, I'm not sure what the issue is then... :(
[02:22] <edbian> Habstina1, I'll research more...
[02:22] <lighta> ah ok I found that quite  weird
[02:22] <almoxarife> l1ghtn1ng: do you have an amp attached? something external that would account for it?
[02:22] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, try running alsamixer in the terminal and adjust those sliders.  You'll see that more than one of them changes the volume
[02:22] <Bopruz> alguem aqui fala portugues?
[02:22] <edbian> lighta, haaha, sory
[02:22] <rww> !pt | Bopruz
[02:22] <Magizian> .. /encrypt #ubuntu kjfhuw9ehifeojiwe90
[02:22] <rww> van7hu: Try asking the developer or something. It's rather unlikely that #ubuntu would know.
[02:23] <Habstina1> edbian: FYI, now I'm not even hearing any sounds.
[02:23] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, when i open alsamixer, when i move the first 5% of my volume control, it maxes at 100 or goes down to nothing. How do I make my volume abr the entire spectrum of PCM volume?
[02:23] <edbian> Habstina1, Well your at a cli right?  What did you expect to hear?
[02:23] <Habstina1> edbian: This is when I'm booting up. The machine is humming, but I'm not sure what it's doing.
[02:23] <Bing0> Hi.  Ubuntu 10.10.  I have an ubuntu box setup to only access the web(firefox) and only want two sites accessible.  What is the route to accomplish this?  Thanks!
[02:23] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, Which volume control are you talking about?  master or pcm?
[02:23] <felixsulla> I downloaded Avant Windows Navigator, how do I turn it on?
[02:23] <edbian> Habstina1, oh really.... no more login noises?
[02:23] <Habstina1> edbian: Before I was hearing the startup sound.
[02:24] <Magizian> but if your not ssh connected to the server and irc from there (or ssh tunnel using same server) /encrypt is worthless.
[02:24] <nelliee> edbian,  lol do we all have you multi tasking or what
[02:24] <l1ghtn1ng> almoxarife, no i do not. I have my PC outputting to a receiver, but in windows there is no issue.
[02:24] <edbian> Habstina1, mhmm, progess... sort of
[02:24] <Habstina1> edbian: Yup.
[02:24] <Bing0> felixsulla, prefs, awn.. its right there
[02:24] <edbian> nelliee, I'm doing alot.  What cause your errors from this pastebin?  http://pastebin.com/Sjud5tQN
[02:24] <edbian> Habstina1, boot into recovery mode.  and pastebin the output of this: dmesg
[02:24] <Magizian> and you'll want to run private encryption over the SSH + SSH cipher.
[02:24] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, Indicator applet on my start bar uptop is what i use. The first 10% of that indicator volume bar controls 0-100% of PCM
[02:24] <edbian> Habstina1, Then run sudo gdm in recovery mode
[02:24] <felixsulla> Bing0: Do I have to reboot after?
[02:25] <Magizian> toast
[02:25] <Bing0> felixsulla, no. logout and log back in
[02:25] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, open alsamixer and adjust those sliders.
[02:25] <Bing0> felixsulla, you rarely need reboots with linux
[02:25] <Magizian> toodles..
[02:25] <nelliee> edbian,  I saved the file after copying the stuff you said and saved
[02:25] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, alsamixer in a terminal that is
[02:25] <alice|wl> hi, I dont have a /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss and need it to play quake3. Anybody knows howto getit?
[02:25] <felixsulla> Bing0: Another stupid question, how do I logout?
[02:25]  * Magizian at magizian.hopto.org vanishes.
[02:25] <edbian> nelliee, the file is being saved, it's freaking out about the entry we added I think...
[02:25] <Bing0> felixsulla, click the power button in the corner
[02:25] <edbian> take the word 'user' out of there
[02:26] <alice|wl> alsa-oss is already the newest version
[02:26] <felixsulla> Bing0: Do you know how to disable the normal Ubuntu tray after activating Avant?
[02:26] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, yes when i have alsamixer open, and adjust the volume bar on the indicator applet, it moves the alsamixer PCM bar up and down like I want. the problem is that only once I reach 10% of the indicator applet volume, it maxes the PCM @ 100%....i want them to be even. if i have volume at 50% on the indicator applet, i want 50% PCM
[02:26] <Bing0> felixsulla, not offhand
[02:27] <Bing0> been to long
[02:27] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, Change the sliders in alsamixer using the up and down arrows.  (I'm aware of the volumen increasing too fast, you don't have to keep typing that)  I believe this is the route to fix the problem.  :)
[02:27] <edbian> Habstina1, How's it going?
[02:27] <edbian> nelliee, How's it going?
[02:28] <nelliee> edbian,  http://pastebin.com/NWZWSLcJ
[02:28] <Bing0> Hi.  Ubuntu 10.10.  I have an ubuntu box setup to only access the web(firefox) and only want two sites accessible.  What is the route to accomplish this?  Thanks!
[02:28] <edbian> nelliee, get rid of the comma after default and make it 'defaults'  with an s
[02:29] <edbian> nelliee, Then try to save
[02:29] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, i have adjusted the volume in terminal up and down and it does nothing :( the PCM still maxes out at 10% of my volume bar in the applet :(
[02:30] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, So moving the pcm slider moves the master super fast?  I'm confused... How many sliders do you have in alsamixer?  Just one labeled PCM?
[02:30] <nelliee> edbian,  still the same
[02:30] <Bopruz> your card is probably too old like mine
[02:30] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, It has 'master', 'pcm', 'front', 'surround', 'center'
[02:30] <edbian> nelliee, delete the whole line and save...
[02:31] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, the applet only effects PCM and Master
[02:31] <abiku> tes heloo everybody
[02:31] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, can you move master and pcm independently in alsamixer?
[02:31] <sacarlson> Bing0: you coould make all /bin and /usr/bin files set to not execute with chmod -x /bin/* ; chmod -x /usr/bin/*  for the only two site you could setup iptables filter
[02:31] <nelliee> edbian,  ok done
[02:31] <Altrix> http://funnycrave.com/ubuntu-introduction/9741/
[02:32] <Bing0> sacarlson, i fail to see how that can control what websites i want to access?
[02:32] <edbian> nelliee, all that line would have done is auto-mount the partition.  I have no idea why it thinks an unpriviliged user was trying to mount.  The file is run as root at boot time.
[02:32] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, yes, btu no matter how i manually adjust in alsamixer, when i move the applet volume the first 5-10% maxes PCM volume, then master volume starts adjusting...the problem is master volume doesnt change anything, only PCM does
[02:32] <sacarlson> Bing0: iptables
[02:32] <Bing0> sacarlson, or you mean config iptables to only allow that? oh ok
[02:32] <edbian> nelliee, You could write a simple bash script that mounts the partition.  or just remember the command as a workaround
[02:32] <Bing0> sacarlson, so far i found firestarter(firewall) that might deny all but approved hosts.
[02:32] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, I can't figure out how to get it to automount right now.  (I also don't know why it isn't automounting)
[02:33] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, moving my master volume up and down does not effect my volume at all
[02:33] <nelliee> edbian,  well it now dose not show any files in it when I go to it in nautilus
[02:33] <sacarlson> Bing0: I just create iptables scripts but firestarter might work also
[02:33] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, moving my master volume up and down does not effect my volume at all
[02:33] <Bing0> sacarlson, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843510   <--- just found this too :)
[02:33] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, I see.  Perhaps there is a setting in the volume applet up top for what it controls?  Dig around it's settings for me.  (I'm not on an Ubuntu machine)
[02:33] <edbian> nelliee, You have to run 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/storage'  then it will
[02:34] <edbian> nelliee, Get your terminal out of /mnt/storage/ if it's in there
[02:34] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, if master volume is at 0% or 100%, doesnt matter ebcause it doesnt effect my volume :) only PCM effects the volume....
[02:34] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, The slider should change master.  Obviously master should be master.  PCM is usually never changed
[02:35] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, Yeah, I know.  Try messing with the GUI of the audio applet to make it control master (that might given Ubuntu a hint)
[02:35] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, well then the problem then is that master volume does nothing on my machine  :)
[02:35] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, Yes.  That's a much deeper problem
[02:36] <l1ghtn1ng> edbian, if manually setting the master volume does nothing, why would i want to link my applet to it? i just want my applet bar to match the PCM volume :)
[02:36] <dustin> anyone got time to maybe walk me through a small problem im haveing "i wanna in gnome extract a file to a folder that contains "openarena" but it says i dont have the right file permissions" how do i go about getting them and could ya help me with the extracting see the trouble is i need sudo but i dunno know how to extract/unzip through the terminal. anyone help ?
[02:36] <sacarlson> Bing0: that sounds like they just want to take out a few sites you want to take out all but two,  seems like there would be an easier way for you
[02:36] <nelliee> edbian,  cool that lets me browse the files on that drive so I just got to figure out how to get ubuntu to mount it auto mount it at boot ?
[02:37] <Bing0> sacarlson, all i want is two websites(gmail is one of them) accessible, the rest are denied.
[02:37] <edbian> l1ghtn1ng, Perhaps matching the applet to master will give Ubuntu a clue
[02:37] <Bing0> sacarlson, if you think iptables is the route to go based on my needs then let me know a recipe :)
[02:37] <sacarlson> Bing0: they all use iptables just a different user interface
[02:38] <edbian> nelliee, BAsically.  and /etc/fstab is how to automount.  ntfs partitions are tricky though.  REad this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[02:38] <Bing0> sacarlson, such GUIs, yeah i assumed so.
[02:38] <asteroth666> anyone know if there's a cb0t chat client for ubuntu?
[02:38] <dustin> need root while in gnome any ideas ?
[02:38] <Habstinat> edbian: Sorry, have to go. This is a bad time for that, I know >.< Hopefully we can continue this later when I'm free, probably two days from now. Thanks for all your help.
[02:38] <almoxarife> dustin: I like gui also, consider adding to nautilus a plugin that allows you to open admin folders with admin rights
[02:38] <nelliee> edbian,  thanks
[02:38] <edbian> Habstinat, good luck!  :)
[02:38] <edbian> nelliee, no problem
[02:38] <wetstone_> Hello,Everyone!
[02:38] <[thor]> dustin: use "sudo <command>"
[02:39] <plb1> Weird question, for a weird scenario... I have a Maildir inbox with 19000 messages in it. I need to spam filter it as I know it has spam in it.
[02:39] <cryptodira> 2 questions: what back-up solution is typically preferred ..... and .... what is the preferred 'flash' solution ?   10.04.2 amd/64
[02:39] <plb1> Any ideas how?
[02:39] <[thor]> dustin: password required is _your_ user password
[02:39] <sacarlson> Bing0: try a few of them see if they do what you want.  problem with gmail is that it might change it's ip so maybe you need to look at bind9 to make sure that the name goes to where you want
[02:39] <dustin> hmm how i use sudo thou see im very new to it and dont know alot of the commands
[02:39] <dustin> see i get the whole sudo ?but what command to unzip to a specific folder?
[02:39] <Bing0> sacarlson, ok thanks.  im thinking if i add hostnames(versus IP addys) that issue might not appear :)
[02:40] <matt_> Hello, I have a Myth setup on Ubuntu, I am using a HD-PVR with DirecTV, The HD-PVR seems to be configured because I can record video using "cat /dev/video0 > test.ts"  the problem I am having is getting the live TV to show up in Myth, When I click on Watch TV, it hangs for a few seconds and drops right back to the main menu.....any help would be greatly appreciated
[02:40] <edbian> dustin, Ready for some permission fun?  I can explain them too you
[02:40] <plb1> cryptodira: I am partial to dirvish for backups. Amanda is powerful but complex, bacula is great for backing up many machines.
[02:40] <sacarlson> Bing0: I'm not sure how often google changes things and they also have about 10 backup sites
[02:40] <Bing0> yeah
[02:40] <dustin> i guess i hope the damn patch is worth it lol
[02:40] <ssbpls> hello, i am using the ubuntu 9.10. But when i installed it ,i chosed to encry my home directory . now i am still using the system ,how to cancel the encryption? Because the encryption has taken so much space . My home have spare room to store things~~
[02:40] <edbian> dustin, patch?
[02:41] <sacarlson> Bing0: well with firestarter the name is used when it starts to run but just converts to ip until you restart the computer or the software
[02:41] <wetstone> Nobody can speak Chinese?
[02:41] <dustin> ya for openarena
[02:41] <Jordan_U> !cn | wetstone
[02:41] <cryptodira> plb1,  thanks!
[02:41] <edbian> dustin, Is that what is it?  Ok whatever.  open a terminal.  type ls -la   it will list all the files in the current working directory and their file permissions
[02:41] <sacarlson> Bing0: you might also note that google does alot of redirects
[02:41] <Bing0> sacarlson, ok thanks for the insights... ill give the gui method a rip. then if that fails might end up here :)
[02:42] <wetstone> 有没有说中文的呢？
[02:43] <ssbpls> you can go to the chinese irc,here is for english communication
[02:44] <triath> im trying to get my webcam logitech c270 to work. It is supported in the UVC list of supported devices. It works just fine on my laptop (Ubuntu 10.04 netbook) but i just get black screen on my desktop (Ubuntu 10.10). Any ideas what might be different that i can change?
[02:44] <ssbpls>  hello, i am using the ubuntu 9.10. But when i installed it ,i chosed to encry my home directory . now i am still using the system ,how to cancel the encryption? Because the encryption has taken so much space . My home have spare room to store things~~
[02:44] <dustin> k edbian
[02:44] <dustin> i know where the folder is 1min need a restart for the nautilus packages brb
[02:44] <edbian> dustin, it lists drwxrwxrwx for every file.  The first bit (d) is directory and not directory -    make sense?
[02:45] <Skywalk3r> anyone know a good font for irssi?
[02:46] <Bing0> ssbpls, you'll have to backup the data elsewhere, remove the volume and re-create a non-encrypted volume i would think
[02:47] <_Tristan> recently whenever a two-inch wide column on my screen is just the right shade of blue-green, it gets distorted.
[02:47] <Bing0> triath, are you on 10.10?  did you see the cam in terminal with lsusb ?
[02:47] <_Tristan> any ideas as to what that is?
[02:47] <sacarlson> ssbpls: I guess you might create a new user and login to your encrypted user and copy all the files to the new unencrypted user. later you can delete you old user and rename the new one to your old name
[02:47] <dustin> okies back
[02:47] <cryptodira> what is the preferred 'flash' solution (watching, NOT creating)  10.04.2 amd/64  ?
[02:47] <edbian> _Tristan, Sounds like the monitor is dying
[02:47] <Bing0> cryptodira, you mean as in, hassle-free flash?
[02:47] <_Tristan> edbian: but why only blue-green?
[02:47] <triath> Bing0: yea im on 10.10 lsusb shows Bus 008 Device 002: ID 046d:0825 Logitech, Inc.  it corresponds with the supported device
[02:48] <edbian> _Tristan, Physics?  I have no idea
[02:48] <almoxarife> cryptodira: I use the adobe 64bit beta with no issues
[02:48] <edbian> almoxarife,  cryptodira There is a new 0 day flaw in flash as of late so watch out!
[02:48] <Bing0> triath, as a stretch, another usb port?  also, you certain this cam works(try it on another pc)?
[02:49] <triath> Bing0: yes this cam works when i plug it in my laptop with 10.04 netbook
[02:49] <almoxarife> edbian: thus far no issues
[02:49] <triath> Bing0: ill try another usb port, who knows
[02:49] <ssbpls> sacarlson:that is a good method
[02:50] <ssbpls> sacarlson:when i create a new user,the new user's home is not encryed?
[02:51] <cryptodira> Bing0, that would be nice, tho not required
[02:51] <sacarlson> ssbpls: as long as you specify when you create it to not be encrypted yes,  if you have a full disk encrypted system then no
[02:52] <cryptodira> almoxarife, are you using 'square' or something newer?
[02:52] <Bing0> cryptodira, i found making a file called /etc/adobe/mms.cfg and adding this to it -->  OverrideGPUValidation=true
[02:52] <Bing0> cryptodira, that helped the stutter for me on a few computers
[02:52] <cryptodira> edbian, thanks for the heads up...
[02:52] <jeppy> It's my first day on linux and I need help finding a driver for my Cyber Acoustics AC-201 analog headset.
[02:52] <jeppy> ubuntu 10.10
[02:53] <mickster04> jeppy: how do you need a driver for a headset?
[02:53] <jeppy> or maybe i need a codec or something to make my mic work
[02:53] <mickster04> jjust check sound preferences that it's not muted?
[02:53] <ssbpls> sacarlson:i don't understand what you means~
[02:54] <jeppy> mickster04, it's not muted
[02:54] <almoxarife> cryptodira: version 10.3 d162
[02:55] <sacarlson> ssbpls: I assume from what you know that you don't have a full disk encrypted system so when you create a new user just make sure the encrypt box in make new user is not checked
[02:55] <jeppy> wait a sec, i think i have it. it was microphone 2 :D
[02:55] <jeppy> thanks anyways
[02:55] <porjo> How can I manually mount an sshfs entry from fstab? When I go 'mount mypath' I get an error 'mount: can't find mypath in /etc/fstab' even though mypath is defined in fstab!?
[02:55] <edbian> jeppy, :)
[02:56] <edbian> porjo, can you sshfs user@host:/some/folder /some/local/folder  ?
[02:56] <jeppy> It's only been a couple of hours but I'm already feeling dumb for not trying a Linux OS sooner... So much potential!
[02:57] <edbian> jeppy, You have no idea :)
[02:57] <porjo> edbian, yes that works
[02:57] <edbian> porjo, What's in /etc/fstab ?
[02:57] <jeppy> I am familiar with FreeBSD though :)
[02:57] <edbian> jeppy, You're used BSD BEFORE you used linux?  That's a first
[02:57] <cryptodira> almoxarife, thanks, checking it out now.
[02:57]  * WinstonSmith is listening to: Not playing
[02:57] <jeppy> we used BSD a lot in college
[02:57] <WinstonSmith> sorry
[02:57] <porjo> edbian, sshfs#host:/remotepath /mypath fuse defaults,idmap=user,noauto 0 0
[02:58] <ssbpls> sacarlson:yes, i don't have a full disk encrypted system. i have tow partisions, one to store the linux system, the other one to store my home.but how to create a new user just make sure the encrypt box in make new user is not checked
[02:58] <almoxarife> cryptodira: just checked, that is what its called on the website, square
[02:58] <edbian> porjo, That's all correct.  Can you do this?  mount /mypath   ?
[02:59] <dustin> okay so anyone play openarena aka AO?
[02:59] <porjo> edbian, no - that's when I get the error ''ount: can't find mypath in /etc/fstab'
[02:59] <edbian> porjo, IDK!  :P  Everything looks fine
[02:59] <jeppy> We used FreeBSD for programming and web servers. But often used Putty on Windows to telnet/ssh in.

[03:02] <safeWay> merma: to me?
[03:02] <mjs> edbian, kinda a newb...thought i knew what was going on, but only working with windows has masked my ignorance, apparently...
[03:02] <safeWay> o
[03:03] <almoxarife> cryptodira: /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so <-- there, there is an easier install, get the ppa for adobe flash 64, that's what I used, and it stays current
[03:03] <Swerve__> i need a program on ubuntu that will download a file at a specified time
[03:03] <safeWay> how to enable fullscreen video gain
[03:03] <ssbpls> sacarlson:from there to create a new user not encrypted?
[03:03] <mjs> edbian, no worries, appreciate the effort...
[03:03] <porjo> sacarlson, thanks
[03:03] <sacarlson> ssbpls: yes that's what you want isn't it?  NOT encrypted
[03:03] <mjs> edbian, and honesty...no one likes a bum steer...
[03:03] <edbian> Swerve__, You're gonna have to write the script yourself and use cron but it is not too hard
[03:04] <Swerve__> i dont know how to that...
[03:04] <Swerve__> lol
[03:04] <Swerve__> not yet
[03:04] <edbian> Swerve__, Well here is how you download a file in a bash shell:  wget http://www.google.com/path/to/some/file
[03:04] <coi> does gnome/linux have a nice calendar program?
[03:05] <The_Thing> Anyone here know how to configure LIRC for Mythbuntu? When I turned it on in the MCC, it asked for my remote control, and I found my homebrew IR receiver in the list in the initial setup dialog. But when I go to test it with irw, it picks up nothing.

[03:06] <Guest63152> I have ubuntu 10.10 and i am trying to download linux mint over it because it is an older computer and can not keep up with ubuntu 10.10  i have tried boating from the cd drive and for some reason that is not working
[03:06] <black> 404. That’s an error.
[03:06] <black> The requested URL /path/to/some/file was not found on this server. That’s all we know.
[03:06] <ssbpls> sacarlson:but there does not have the options the chose to create a new user not encrypted .does it means that the user there created is bound to not be encrypted?
[03:06] <syrinx_> coi: Kontact is pretty neat, too
[03:06] <edbian> Guest63152, Linux mint is not a good distro.  It is based on Ubuntu (it is not lighter)
[03:06] <Swerve__> sorry edbian
[03:06] <merma> i use mint, im happy
[03:07] <edbian> Swerve__, sorry for what?
[03:07] <userX> edbian, why not a good distro>
[03:07] <jeppy> So, after installing Ubuntu, how can I check which third party drivers I still need? Or is that not a valid question?
[03:07] <mickster04> !MINT | merma
[03:07] <PlainMushroom> Question: I know in WIndows, I can close my laptop that is hooked up to my computer, yet still have the desktop showing on my tv, is there a setting withing Ubuntu that does that?
[03:07] <edbian> Guest63152, Let me re-phrase.  Linux mint is a great distro.  It is not great for what you're looking for.  It is not lighter than Ubuntu
[03:07] <edbian> Mint is a great distro!  :)
[03:08] <rww> could've fooled me
[03:08] <Guest63152> I have linux mint on my laptop and it works great and i have only but problems with ubuntu 10. 10 like under wine it says the browse c drive is not found
[03:08] <indrajeet> want to know about backtrack plz help me
[03:08] <cryptodira> almoxarife, should that actually be in /usr/lib64 instead of /usr/lib  ?
[03:08] <rww> indrajeet: ask #backtrack-linux
[03:08] <mjs> all: so failing that, anybody have a good suggestion for where i can go to find a reliable starting point...?...at a loss, i'll be the first to admit
[03:08] <safeWay> anyone know how to enable fullscreen videos again?
[03:08] <papa> lol
[03:08] <edbian> Guest63152, If you wanna install mint ask how in the mint channel
[03:10] <Guest63152> What would cause my wine c browse file not to be found?
[03:10] <PlainMushroom> Anybody?
[03:10] <almoxarife> cryptodira: lib64 is a link to lib
[03:10] <PlainMushroom> Question: I know in WIndows, I can close my laptop that is hooked up to my computer, yet still have the desktop showing on my tv, is there a setting withing Ubuntu that does that?
[03:11] <edbian> Swerve__: Try this: wget http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/images/image-2.jpg
[03:11] <almoxarife> PlainMushroom: yes, power settings, 'do nothing when lid closes'
[03:11] <cryptodira> almoxarife, Thanks.   live and learn  :)
[03:12] <Swerve__> k
[03:12] <almoxarife> cryptodira: I would suggest the package method via the ppa for adobe flash 64
[03:12] <sacarlson> ssbpls: this is what I see when I create a user http://imagebin.org/143284
[03:12] <edbian> Swerve__,  Try this: wget http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/images/image-2.jpg
[03:12] <Swerve__> a pic wont help me
[03:12] <edbian> Swerve__, yeah yeah, but that's how you download a file from the internet in a bash shell.  which is what you need to do right?
[03:13] <ssbpls> sacarlson:thanks , i will have a try~
[03:13] <nit-wit> PlainMushroom, power section has a closing the lid control. You need to mess with gconf-editor to get a do nothing, line hybenate or sleep
[03:13] <rooly> where do i go to report a broken package?
[03:14] <indrajeet> want file binding software in ubuntu
[03:14] <PlainMushroom> I do not see that option in power settings
[03:14] <indrajeet> want file binding software in ubuntu
[03:14] <Guest63152> my computer keeps saying wlan_cfg acces violation at address 000000000. read address 00000000. any one have any clue what this means
[03:15] <indrajeet> want file binding software in ubuntu
[03:15] <rooly> Guest63152, it means your wifi card's driver is trying to access invalid memory.
[03:15] <edbian> Guest63152, The wireless card driver is trying to access the very first memory address which is owned by the kernel.
[03:15] <nit-wit> PlainMushroom, is it the power management in the menu it is on the first tab; when laptop lid is closed
[03:15] <almoxarife> PlainMushroom: system > prefs > pwr manage > what to do about lid
[03:16] <indrajeet> want file binding software in ubuntu
[03:16] <rooly> good for you indrajeet
[03:16] <Guest63152> thats weird because this computer does'nt have awifi card
[03:16] <sacarlson> indrajeet: what is file binding software?  like tar  ?
[03:16] <rooly> Guest63152, that could very easily be why
[03:16] <edbian> Guest63152, rooly Explains why it's doing something so strange
[03:17] <cryptodira> amoxarife, giving the ppa method a try now...
[03:17] <ddilinger> i know this sounds incredibly lazy ... but anyone know of a downloadable .vdi for virtualbox with ubuntu pre-installed?
[03:17] <Guest63152> what is rooly?
[03:17] <pingupingu> is there a guide to setup tomcat6 on ubuntu 10.04 working with eclipse
[03:17] <indrajeet> binding to different files like .jpg and .exe
[03:17] <rooly> Guest63152, the kernel might be seeing wifi hardware for some reason (possibly a bad configuration of a network hardware interface)
[03:17] <almoxarife> ddilinger: you right, its lazy :)
[03:18] <rooly> Guest63152, and then it tries to make the wirless daemon use that invalid hardware, causing the access violation
[03:18] <ddilinger> almoxarife: its not for me, its for a co-worker that cant get apache/php/etc to work under windows.  If he installs an ubuntu vm i can ssh in, setup a server to connect to his machine by samba, and be done with it :)
[03:18] <Guest63152> do you know of anyway to find out what is configured wrong
[03:18] <PlainMushroom> blank screen sleep hibernate shutdown
[03:19] <speedrunnerG55_> what is the equivelent to dos edit in ubbuntu?
[03:19] <almoxarife> ddilinger: I have looked in the past, just as lazy, didn't see it
[03:19] <raido> pingupingu: check howtoforge
[03:19] <speedrunnerG55_> or whats the equivelent to copy con in ubuntu
[03:19] <sacarlson> ddilinger: I see xubuntu in this list http://virtualboximages.com/Free.VirtualBox.VDI.Downloads
[03:19] <rooly> Guest63152, unfortunately, no. my linux-fu is rather weak compared to most of my peers
[03:19] <pingupingu> raido, I will check
[03:19] <Guest63152> lol nice
[03:20] <almoxarife> ddilinger: hamachi on both ends would do the same?
[03:20] <indrajeet> sacarlson:binding to different files like .jpg and .exe
[03:20] <rooly> speedrunnerG55_, what does "copy con" do?
[03:21] <yofel> speedrunnerG55_: the equivalent to DOS would be the terminal, edit would be nano by default
[03:21] <cryptodira> amoxarife, maybe a reboot is needed?  you tube says to upgrade the flash player.... every other bit of s/w i have installed just worked  on installation.
[03:21] <yofel> !cli > speedrunnerG55_
[03:21] <speedrunnerG55_> copies the text in the console to a file
[03:21] <speedrunnerG55_> ok
[03:21] <sacarlson> indrajeet: I guess you mean in nautilus?
[03:21] <rooly> indrajeet, do you mean specifying which program loads a specific file, or binding your program through some sort of os-provided registry?
[03:21] <indrajeet> sacarlson:no
[03:21] <Guest63152>   rooley do you know of any reason why my wine browse c is not found
[03:21] <yofel> indrajeet: binding *what* to different files?
[03:22] <almoxarife> cryptodira: I installed 'it' via package, I would suggest doing the same
[03:22] <safeWay> anyone know how to enable fullscreen videos again?
[03:22] <rooly> Guest63152, not without any details regarding your setup, no
[03:22] <sacarlson> indrajeet: on the command line it's just a mater of the first line  #!
[03:22] <rooly> safeWay, possibly try f11. that's the general default 'fullscreen' shortcut
[03:23] <Guest63152> ok man thanks any way
[03:23] <safeWay> after i wrote some command in terminal some guy told me it disabled fullscreen flash
[03:23] <safeWay> video is freezing in fullscreen
[03:23] <indrajeet> sacarlson:when u bind .exe file with the .jpg.then just open the .jpg and .exe will run automatically
[03:24] <indrajeet> sacarlson:it works like a  virus
[03:24] <rooly> indrajeet, nautilus (the file browser) provides an 'open with' menu on right-click.
[03:24] <speedrunnerG55_> i know what cli is, im learning cmd at the moment but i just want to learn the linux eqivelents in terminal
[03:24] <pingupingu> raido, there is only tomcat and apache installations, I do not see any eclipse integration installation
[03:24] <indrajeet> rooly:okay
[03:24] <edbian> speedrunnerG55_, be more specific.  What command do you want to translate
[03:24] <rooly> so like i saide before, would anyone happen to know where i should go to report a broken package?
[03:25] <safeWay> help
[03:25] <speedrunnerG55_> copy con
[03:25] <Swerve__> a lil help
[03:25] <PlainMushroom> THere is no setting that I am looking for, just blank screen, sleep, hibernate and shut down
[03:25] <rooly> speedrunnerG55_, what does "copy con" do?
[03:25] <sacarlson> indrajeet: well maybe that's a wine thing,  I just use nautilus double click and it binds and opens my jpg files or avi files or txt files in the default application setup in nautilus
[03:25] <speedrunnerG55_> it copies the consol to a file so lets say i said copy con blah.txt
[03:26] <speedrunnerG55_> thaen i would type stuff to write in that text file
[03:26] <rooly> script i think
[03:26] <rooly> lemme go check
[03:26] <speedrunnerG55_> then hit enter and it would make the file
[03:26] <edbian> speedrunnerG55_, nano file.txt
[03:26] <Swerve__> any way to start a download at a specified time on ubuntu?
[03:26] <yofel> edbian: no, he means copy the current terminal contents to a file I think
[03:26] <rooly> speedrunnerG55_, start with script, then when you finish, hit ctrl+d
[03:26] <visual1ce> hi
[03:27] <almoxarife> PlainMushroom: the option you want is 'blank screen'
[03:27] <yofel> script should do that, or screen/byobu can do that too I think
[03:27] <speedrunnerG55_> ctl+d?
[03:27] <rooly> Swerve__, you can set up a cron job
[03:27] <visual1ce> im having trouble installing grub2 in alternate 10.10 installation - im installing to a raid 0 array
[03:27] <jrib> Swerve__: sure, use the "at" command together with wget.  Or if you prefer just do: sleep time-to-wait-here; wget-command-here
[03:27] <visual1ce> (stripe array)
[03:27] <Swerve__> how?
[03:27] <rooly> speedrunnerG55_, it is the default keybind to 'exit'
[03:27] <raido> Swerve__: where is the file
[03:27] <speedrunnerG55_> oh ok
[03:28] <Swerve__> blackbuntu.org
[03:28] <speedrunnerG55_> isnt there an "exit " command
[03:28] <PlainMushroom> almoxarife , that doesn't work. I get a black screen when I close the laptop
[03:28] <visual1ce> i keep getting an installation step failed
[03:28] <rooly> speedrunnerG55_, yeah, its called exit
[03:28] <rooly> but there are keyboard shortcuts to it
[03:28] <Swerve__> actually there and here
[03:28] <Swerve__> http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris/downloads/index.html
[03:28] <visual1ce> i don't think it is installing to the right device... i tried entering the correct name but still no go
[03:28] <Swerve__> for vm
[03:28] <jrib> !bugs | rooly
[03:28] <raido> Swerve__: Ok, you want "at" and "wget". Both tools are easy, just see the man pages for both
[03:28] <safeWay> help
[03:28] <almoxarife> PlainMushroom: you have two monitors?
[03:28] <rooly> thanks jrib
[03:29] <Swerve__> link?
[03:29] <PlainMushroom> I am using my tv as my monitor, I would like to keep the laptop closed
[03:29] <Swerve__> main page of the forum?
[03:29] <PlainMushroom> I can do this in Windows, but can't figure it out in Ubuntu
[03:29] <raido> Swerve__: no, "man at" on your command line
[03:29] <visual1ce> what about keyboard?
[03:30] <Swerve__> Linux Programmer's Manual
[03:30] <Swerve__> thats what i got
[03:32] <papa> hi
[03:32] <sinduhrella> Can I give my tray clock a new font?
[03:32] <almoxarife> PlainMushroom: you may need to set up 'dual monitor', I don't know how that works
[03:33] <visual1ce> oh
[03:33] <visual1ce> so i cant have grub 2 on a raid 0 partition?
[03:33] <visual1ce> ich10r
[03:33] <rooly> sinduhrella, you can provide your entire system a new font easily. specifically your clock, not without modifying the running program
[03:34] <visual1ce> anybody? can i install grub2 on a raid0 array?
[03:34] <visual1ce> yes no?
[03:34] <sinduhrella> rooly: recompiling, or editting config files?
[03:34] <cesurasean> Help! Windows blew away my grub! How do I boot back into Ubuntu live usb stick and reinstall grub2 onto my desktop?
[03:34] <backtrack> Hello.
[03:35] <backtrack> Can anyone help me fix my refresh rate?
[03:35] <soreau> backtrack: what's wrong with it?
[03:35] <backtrack> I've installed nvidia drivers and I use gtf + xrandr to set it manually, but it won't successfully change. Automatically goes back to 50, I need 60. Text is blurry.
[03:35] <soreau> ! grub2 | visual1ce cesurasean
[03:35] <yofel> !grub2 | cesurasean: you'll find instructions heree
[03:36] <soreau> yofel: win ;)
[03:36] <yofel> :P
[03:36] <visual1ce> thx soreau
[03:36] <visual1ce> and yofel
[03:36] <indrajeet> how to install virtual box using terminal?
[03:36] <sacarlson> cesurasean: here's the onliner: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt; sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda # change sda1 and sda to your choice
[03:36] <backtrack> I've tried 59 and 60hz, too.
[03:36] <soreau> ! vbox | indrajeet
[03:37] <soreau> ! who | backtrack
[03:37] <edbian> indrajeet, sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[03:37] <backtrack> soreau, I've tried 59 and 60hz too.
[03:37] <cesurasean> sacarlson, how do i know which sda my drive is?
[03:37] <soreau> backtrack: nvidia proprietary drivers still do not support the randr 1.2 protocol. Try nvidia-settings
[03:37] <backtrack> soreau, I did. They will only let me use 50, 51, and 77.
[03:37] <sacarlson> cesurasean: more details http://paste.ubuntu.com/562593/
[03:38] <soreau> backtrack: Then that's all the driver is capable of. Try a different version or use nouveau
[03:38] <sacarlson> cesurasean: the only time it wouldn't be sda is if you changed your bios settings
[03:38] <backtrack> soreau, Moment, I'll try nouveau.
[03:38] <indrajeet> edbian:thank u
[03:38] <cesurasean> sacarlson, how do i list my partitions?
[03:38] <backtrack> soreau,  Nouveau command not found... Where can I find different driver versions?
[03:38] <cesurasean> i have windows on this system as well, don't want to fubar it...
[03:38] <sacarlson> cesurasean: sudo fdisk -l
[03:38] <soreau> backtrack: I don't think nouveau can work properly while the proprietary driver remains installed
[03:39] <soreau> backtrack: After removing the nvidia driver, it will use nouveau by default
[03:39] <cesurasean> sacarlson, do i need to mount the ntfs which has the boot partition on it, or just mount my linux OS?
[03:40] <sacarlson> cesurasean: oh if you installed with the windows installed wubi this won't work
[03:40] <soreau> backtrack: or you can check the versions available in sys>admin>Additional Drivers
[03:40] <backtrack> soreau,  Are you willing to help a complete noob? :) I don't know how to uninstall
[03:41] <soreau> backtrack: How did you install the driver?
[03:41] <sacarlson> cesurasean: if your install is on ntfs then you must have used wubi to install and I don't support that
[03:41] <backtrack> soreau,  apt-get install
[03:42] <syrinx_> sacarlson: me either!
[03:42] <Guest69325> jnj
[03:45] <DavidJHeinrich1> why does the "lscpu" command report that my Intel Q9550 CPU is only 2GHz, not 2.8 GHz?
[03:45] <rww> DavidJHeinrich1: probably because CPU frequency scaling is active and your system isn't under heavy load.
[03:46] <DavidJHeinrich1> rwww...ahh
[03:47] <cesurasean> which partition is the mbr usually located on?
[03:47] <rooly> geeze lekhonee better be worth the 63.4MB download
[03:47] <A|i3N> Hey guys trying to figure out if something is possible. Got ubuntu installed on a second computer. I want the same packages installed on it that are on my other computer. Is there any way to move the package files over via CD to prevent having to download a buncha stuff again? I already tried moving what was in /var/cache/apt/archives but i'm guessing there's more somewhere
[03:47] <DavidJHeinrich1> rww: desktop CPUs as old as the Intel Q9550 have scaling? (and if I stressed the system, it'd show them faster?)?
[03:48] <rooly> cesurasean, the mbr is in the first sector of the hdd
[03:48] <sacarlson> cesurasean: sda unless you change it in bios
[03:48] <rooly> A|i3N, yeah there is. let me go look up the package
[03:48] <rooly> A|i3N, check out aptoncd
[03:49] <A|i3N> aww man need a package to move packages eh? ;) that'll work. hehe
[03:49] <sacarlson> cesurasean: mbr is normaly not installed on a partition it is put at the first 512 bytes of the device
[03:49] <rww> DavidJHeinrich1: The Q9550's only about three years old... and yes, it does scaling ;)
[03:49] <A|i3N> aptoncd... by the name, it sounds like it might work. lol. Ill check it out on my other computer (i'm guessing I'll need to install this on the "host")
[03:50] <cesurasean> sacarlson, ok im confused. which sdb do i use??
[03:50] <rww> DavidJHeinrich1: if you get CPU usage up to 100%, it should show 2.8GHz, yes.
[03:50] <cesurasean> where do i specify root directory? my linux partition? or the extended partition, or what?
[03:50] <DavidJHeinrich1> rww: ahhh, ok, good to know...thanks!
[03:50] <cesurasean> i tried using sdb5, but it says that's not the mbr, and i need to use the mbr
[03:50] <Skywalk3r> How do i change so the status things "user joins" "user quits" dooesnt show in Irssi?
[03:51] <sacarlson> cesurasean: for mbr?  sdb  or sda  or sdX   NOT sda1 or sdb2 or ....
[03:51] <backtrack> soreau, I found the command and uninstalled the drivers. However, after that no display was found and I couldn't startx.
[03:51] <rooly> A|i3N, yes. it creates an apt-readable database. when you put the burned disc into the destination computer, it should automatically pop up with an 'available packages' dialogue
[03:51] <DavidJHeinrich1> rww: that makes me think twice about my purchase of an Opteron 6128...I thought it was on-par speedwise with my Q9550! ... but its slower! (I purchased it for 32GB RAM) Maybe I'll sell and wait for LGA2011
[03:51] <A|i3N> awesome just what I need. Thanks rooly :)
[03:51] <rww> !quietirssi | Skywalk3r
[03:51] <yofel> backtrack: you did delete xorg.conf after removing the driver? (if you didn't use jockey to remove it)
[03:52] <sacarlson> cesurasean: you do understand that trying to repair a wubi install with a livecd with this method will NOT work?
[03:52] <backtrack> yofel, I did not... I'm a noob, how do I use jockey to remove it?
[03:52] <cesurasean> its saying to specify the filesystem type when i do sdb
[03:52] <rww> ugh wubi
[03:52] <cesurasean> sacarlson, i have fixed it before.
[03:52] <Skywalk3r> ubotto: Thank you!
[03:52] <yofel> backtrack: jockey is the additional drivers application
[03:53] <backtrack> yofel, Okay.. I'm a noob to linux, what do I need to do? ;)
[03:53] <backtrack> yofel, apt-get jockey?
[03:53] <yofel> backtrack: erm, open it, select the installed driver, and press remove
[03:53] <cesurasean> sacarlson, what makes you think it won't work?
[03:53] <backtrack> yofel, Oh, is that something included with ubuntu? :( I'm on backtrack.
[03:53] <cesurasean> i have seen it work!
[03:53] <yofel> or open jockey-text in a terminal
[03:54] <rww> backtrack: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu and supported derivatives. Backtrack Linux support is in #backtrack-linux only.
[03:54] <sacarlson> cesurasean: I will work fine if it's NOT a wubi install
[03:54] <cesurasean> what do you mean by wubi?
[03:54] <backtrack> rww, Hey, cool rww! Thanks.
[03:54] <sacarlson> !wubi | cesurasean
[03:55] <Ioniz3D> anyone using tmux here ?
[03:55] <cesurasean> I never used wubi...
[03:55] <rooly> sorry, not i, Ioniz3D
[03:56] <mjs_> Ioniz3D, nope, sorry, put figured even a neg response is better than none at all...
[03:56] <sacarlson> cesurasean: ok very good
[03:56] <Ioniz3D> thanks
[03:56] <cesurasean> who said anything about using wubi???
[03:56] <cesurasean> it's just a normal ubuntu install alongside a windows partition
[03:56] <cesurasean> uninstalled mcaffee on windows, and it blew away my mbr
[03:56] <cesurasean> How do I fix my MBR????
[03:56] <sacarlson> cesurasean: you said that your partiion was on ntfs so that's the only way that could hapen
[03:56] <cesurasean> no
[03:56] <cesurasean> I'm dual booting, and have 2 NTFS partitions
[03:57] <cesurasean> and 1 linux
[03:57] <Scunizi> How do I get into the settings for Firefox?  about:????  .. but not plugins..
[03:57] <miketomdool> about:config
[03:57] <mickster04> Scunizi: about:config?
[03:57] <Scunizi> mickster04: thanks.. I think that's it.. I just couldn't remember
[03:57] <daweefolk> does anybody know of a MUD that uses a map system similar to nethack?
[03:57] <sacarlson> cesurasean:  ok then pastebin the results of sudo fdisk -l
[03:58] <cesurasean> i can't pastebin it
[03:58] <cesurasean> ok
[03:58] <cesurasean> wait
[03:58] <cesurasean> i can
[03:58] <FloodBot3> cesurasean: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:58] <mickster04> !enter | cesurasean
[04:02] <cesurasean> sacarlson, http://pastebin.com/9sH8y2cs
[04:03] <cesurasean> sacarlson, can you tell me the EXACT code I need to use in order to fix this?
[04:03] <sacarlson> cesurasean: sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /mnt; sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[04:04] <sacarlson> cesurasean: from a livecd boot as detailed as I have shown you before http://paste.ubuntu.com/562593/
[04:05] <cesurasean> sacarlson, which /dev do i use in that command line?
[04:05] <sacarlson> cesurasean: exactly as I typed them
[04:06] <sacarlson> cesurasean: /dev/sdb5  and /dev/sda
[04:07] <cesurasean> sacarlson, THANK YOU!  What was the # channel for backtrack, again?
[04:10] <Scunizi> gentoo_fun2: not just dual screens but there's help there for resoution too.
[04:10] <gentoo_fun2> is the program come default
[04:11] <gentoo_fun2> xrandr
[04:11] <edbian> gentoo_fun2, yep
[04:11] <mykal> hi all. looking through ubuntu repos for a good converter from mp4 to, well, aything else really. there are a few, suggestions??
[04:11] <gentoo_fun2> for some reaosn it says mirror screens on monitor preferences
[04:12] <rooly> does anyone know of a good working blogging tool
[04:12] <rooly> or do i need to build python packages
[04:12] <gentoo_fun2> oh hmm
[04:12] <gentoo_fun2> its the highest it goes on "vga connected"
[04:13] <gentoo_fun2> it also says "LVDS1 connected"
[04:13] <edbian> mykal, I like sound converter.   :( Anyone here willing to try to help me, even though I'm not on ubuntu? lol :(
[04:15] <mykal> edbian, XBOX disagrees with MP4
[04:15] <edbian> mykal, Good luck with that!  xbox360 disagrees with everything.  It's really annoying.
[04:16] <mykal> edbian, lol, yup, but the generic avi and divx seem to work well enough
[04:16] <mykal> edbian, would prefer it all be ogg though
[04:16] <edbian> mykal, :)  I love ogg
[04:18] <mykal> edbian, me too. first time i came across it i was like "wtf is VLC player". do some research and realise that hollywood not only wants me to pay for their DVD, but then expects the people that make my DVD player to pay them too. F!$# that, been a fan of open everything since then
[04:18] <gentoo_fun2> Scunizi: oic my error, i disabled the DVI or w/e internal output by clicking "mirror images"
[04:19] <gentoo_fun2> i re enabled it with xrandr
[04:19] <Scunizi> gentoo_fun2: working now?
[04:19] <jrbrown1991> Scunizi, could you help me?
[04:20] <gentoo_fun2> Scunizi: yes, thanks
[04:20] <gentoo_fun2> looks nice and crisp now
[04:20] <Scunizi> jrbrown1991: with backtrack? Don't know anything about it.
[04:20] <Scunizi> gentoo_fun2: glad to hear it :)
[04:20] <jrbrown1991> Scunizi, know anywhere I can go for help? They banned me, I'm guessing because my question was too n00b for them.
[04:21] <rww> jrbrown1991: your IRC client's ident is set to "root". They ban that, for some unfathomable reason.
[04:22] <mykal> question while im here. i want to write some simple bash scripts to reset some servers etc. i dont want my housemate to have to learn the command line. how hard would it be to write a simple GUI that will run a bash script, all i needis a giant button
[04:22] <jrbrown1991> rww, Oh, I see.
[04:22] <jrbrown1991> rww, Thanks, I'll go change that.
[04:22] <edbian> mykal, Not very hard.  check out zenity
[04:22] <rooly> mykal, there's a means of writing gtk 'applications' from bash
[04:23] <mykal> edbian, ok, zenity, is that what rooly is talking about?
[04:24] <edbian> mykal, I have no idea if rooly talked about it.
[04:24] <edbian> rooly, Is that what you mean?  Using zenity?
[04:24] <matt_> I have a NVidia gt210 hdmi card and cant get the sound working in alsa, can someone help me please?
[04:24] <mykal> edbian, what about making them run in the notification area as a service, doable???
[04:24] <rooly> edbian, mykal yes, i do believe it is one and the same
[04:24] <edbian> mykal, You can use libnotify for that.
[04:24] <mykal> rooly, thanks mate
[04:25] <mykal> edbian, rooly, thanks, will read
[04:25] <edbian> mykal, sorry, not libnotify.  I ment notify-send
[04:26] <mykal> edbian, no stress, that why they have manuals, ill find it, thanks
[04:26] <mykal> ps. arista just crashedm try the next to convert
[04:27] <edbian> Have a good night Ubuntu-land
[04:30] <andruha> Hey guys, can anyone recommend me something like notepad++ for linux? I primarily need macros in the editor
[04:30] <eekTheCat> so my damn mouse slid and I performed some kind of file operation in nautilus.
[04:30] <eekTheCat> not sure what, the hard drive is thrashing
[04:30] <eekTheCat> is there an undo operation in the ubuntu file manager?
[04:30] <randomuser> andruha, i dont know about macros, but i find bluefish enjoyable for coding
[04:31] <randomuser> there are a lot of features i don't use, so maybe its in there
[04:32] <eekTheCat> there doesn't seem to be
[04:32] <eekTheCat> to hell with guis
[04:32] <andruha> randomuser, k, i'll try that
[04:32] <eekTheCat> at least on the shell i could have seen what i did
[04:32] <matt_> I have a NVidia gt210 hdmi card and cant get the sound working in alsa, can someone help me please?
[04:33] <randomuser> andruha, there's always emacs
[04:33] <andruha> randomuser, what emacs? (im new to linux)
[04:33] <andruha> whats*
[04:33] <ruan> !emacs
[04:34] <andruha> is that like an emulator?
[04:34] <ruan> terminal based text editor
[04:34] <andruha> oh
[04:34] <Da|Mummy> why cant my wife on ubuntu hold a steady connection?
[04:35] <Da|Mummy> wifi
[04:35] <andruha> bluefish doesn't have macros :(
[04:35] <Da|Mummy> weird spelling error....
[04:35] <oo> :)
[04:35] <eekTheCat> Da|Mummy, divorce is the solution
[04:35] <ruan> lol
[04:35] <Da|Mummy> i shouldve expected that one....
[04:35] <randomuser> andruha, what kind of macros are you using?
[04:36] <Senix> I have a G-Pen 609 and want to be able to use with with ubuntu 10.10, when i plugged it in everything worked fine, things were recognized so i thought it would work. I started GIMP to see if i could draw a few test lines but gimp ignores the pressure signals from my device, is there a way to fix this?
[04:36] <ruan> Da|Mummy: signal strength?
[04:36] <Da|Mummy> but anyway, how do i figure out whats wrong with my wifi
[04:36] <Da|Mummy> 80% signal
[04:36] <andruha> randomuser, i just need the editor to repeat a step a couple of hundred times (like removing a tag from the code or something)
[04:36] <andruha> Da|Mummy, make sure drivers are up to date
[04:36] <randomuser> like, find and replace?
[04:36] <Da|Mummy> im using a netopia wifi usb adapter
[04:37] <Da|Mummy> ive no idea where to start with the drivers...
[04:37] <ruan> Da|Mummy: have you tried Wicd network manager?
[04:37] <Da|Mummy> no i have not, tell me more
[04:37] <ruan> !info wicd-gtk
[04:37] <Da|Mummy> i have a feeling its a driver problem, but ive no idea where to get said drivers for ubutu
[04:37] <andruha> randomuser, not exactly, its more like go up 2 lines and delete the first few characters and do it again
[04:38] <clement> no one say something
[04:39] <randomuser> andruha, sounds crufty.
[04:39] <cjae> nvidia
[04:39] <Da|Mummy> so how do i go about finding the right drivers for my netopia usb wifi adapter for ubuntu?
[04:39] <cjae> !nvidia
[04:40] <cjae> !info nvidia
[04:40] <andruha> randomuser, how is that crufty?
[04:40] <cjae> what is the current version of the nvidia driver in 10.10
[04:41] <firede> hello every one
[04:41] <Da|Mummy> ruan, how will wicd help me?
[04:41] <gusg> I'd like to very quickly (temporarily) host a file securely such that it can be downloaded by ssh/scp. How could I do this?
[04:41] <cjae> I have a fairly new gpu and would like to see if it is supported
[04:41] <randomuser> andruha, the text of the code itself doesn't match a pattern, other than its line and column?
[04:41] <Da|Mummy> im able to connect to my wifi, im on it right now, but it seems like its dropping connections and speak wont stay steady
[04:41] <twitch> !info nvidia-current | cjae
[04:42] <cjae> twitch: thanks
[04:42] <andruha> randomuser, lol don't worry about the code.. i just need an editor that has macros builtin
[04:42] <stale> hello
[04:43] <cjae> twitch: is that like a meta package that tracks new releases of driver?
[04:44] <randomuser> andruha, i'm just trying to get a feel for what you're trying to do so that i might be able to help.  Linux tools like awk and sed are commonly used for what i think you're doing, but i've never tried to automate actual keystrokes to edit code
[04:45] <StuckMojo> hi. my boot splash screen isn't working, despite haveing "quiet splash" in my grub. any ideas? this install has been in-place upgraded starting from Jaunty, if that matters...
[04:45] <rooly> randomuser, one can use 'yes' to automate piping some value to stdin
[04:46] <andruha> randomuser, thanks for your suggestions, im trying emacs right now and will see what awk is all about
[04:46] <StuckMojo> hmmm..actually google might have the answer... (as usual ;)
[04:47] <randomuser> rooly, what are you on about?
[04:47] <dustin> anyone play openarena thats on right now?
[04:47] <rooly> randomuser, oh, just saw your reply to andruha when i looked up. figured i'd inform you of yes if you didn't know about it
[04:47] <twitch> cjae: yeha if dev's compile and new stable release of the driver, when you do regular system updates it will update to the newest stable driver
[04:48] <Jordan_U> !ot | dustin
[04:48] <randomuser> rooly, i haven't had occasion to use it, i'm not sure I know how. It doesn't seem relevant here.
[04:48] <jsoftw> Whats a good news-reader?
[04:48] <jsoftw> newsgroup I should say
[04:48] <dustin> uhh i got the game with ubuntu thou jordan
[04:49] <dustin> but if u got a specific channel for asking the questions id be happy to move over there thou :)
[04:49] <dustin> questions about games and linux etc
[04:49] <rooly> randomuser, it was a question about keystrokes, and i think yes may be able to simulate keystrokes if passed correctly
[04:49] <Jordan_U> dustin: Do you have a support question or are you looking for people to play with. If you have a support question then just ask your actual question.
[04:49] <dustin> support really
[04:50] <dustin> im attempting a install but not sure how to go about doing it :(
[04:50] <StuckMojo> aha, well it has to do with the swap partition uuid changing
[04:50] <StuckMojo> contents of /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
[04:50] <Jordan_U> dustin: It's available in Applications > Ubuntu Software Center.
[04:51] <dustin> okay i downloaded a patch for my OA "open arena" liniux and i attempted to load a patch for it but it needs to be extracted to the main folder
[04:51] <dustin> trouble is i cant do it from gnome so i need some self taught unziping methods useing sudo-
[04:51] <ruan> why cant you do it from gnome?
[04:51] <ruan> gksudo nautilus
[04:52] <dustin> it keeps telling me i need root
[04:52] <matt_> I have a NVidia gt210 hdmi card and cant get the sound working in alsa, can someone help me please?
[04:52] <ruan> dustin: use gksudo nautilus

[05:12] <papagoose> hi all, i have several image files that I would like to print on 1 page (eg. 4 files, printed as though they were 4 pages in 1 file with 4 pages per sheet)
[05:12] <ruan> fujin: view background terminals?
[05:12] <alopez920> i can't get information about that procedure....
[05:12] <randomuser> fujun, try 'ps -aux' or 'w' or 'users' etc
[05:13] <fujin> ok
[05:13] <fujin> yeah background terminals
[05:13] <randomuser> well, background processes
[05:13] <papagoose> any ideas on a quick way to do this? I keep making different images to print so whatever solution needs to be easily reusable

[05:14] <RubenAlonzo> Greetings Everyone.

[05:16] <mix22891> My Hebrew reverse some of the programs, Please help
[05:16] <littlebird> is ubuntu a real person
[05:17] <ruan> !ubuntu
[05:17] <jrmcm> littlebird: its uBOTTu :)
[05:17] <mikeru> Heelp
[05:17] <littlebird> i see
[05:17] <mikeru> I'm having HUGE tearing issues on my MacBook
[05:18] <mikeru> It has an Nvidia 9400M
[05:18]  * arejay updates to natty
[05:18] <mikeru> I'm using the proprietary drivers
[05:19] <mikeru> I can't even watch a DVD quality video without getting nauseous
[05:19] <mrcreativity> i need some help please. i cant seem to run a .py file
[05:19] <RubenAlonzo> does anyone know if there is a suitable and stable product based on Gnome that closely resembles current 10.10 release? reason I ask is i had installed 10.10 netbook remix and was very pleased that everything worked out of the box, but really disliked the constant Unity Tabs on the left side of my tiny 10.1 inch screen. so i moved to other software for the moment but was really getting to like the terminal for learning how to do
[05:20] <ChogyDan> mikeru: have you googled for the issue?  I don't know, but I can point you in the direction of getting updated drivers...
[05:20] <RubenAlonzo> i read that the next version of ubuntu will have the ablity to hide the unity
[05:20] <mikeru> ChogyDan: I have the latest drivers
[05:20] <mikeru> 270 something
[05:21] <ChogyDan> mikeru: did you get them from the xorg-edgers ppa?
[05:21] <mikeru> ChogyDan: Yup
[05:21] <mrcreativity> can someone please suggest a solution
[05:21] <ruan> 260.19.06
[05:22] <mikeru> 270.29-0
[05:22] <ruan> hmm.
[05:22] <mikeru> ruan: Thats in ubuntu's repos
[05:22] <mikeru> This is from edgers ppa
[05:23] <fujin> blah
[05:23] <fujin> this ubuntu isnt as easy as i thought it would be
[05:24] <fujin> anyone here run a minecraft server?>
[05:24] <fujin> or has done it before?
[05:24] <jrmcm> Brando:  I believe that every kernel after 2.6.19 included this driver.  The chipset is the rt2870 and it is detected to use the rt2800usb driver under Ubuntu 10.10.
[05:24] <mikeru> Any ideas?
[05:25] <sacarlson> mrcreativity:  I thought python was installed by default,  maybe you need a different version of python?
[05:25] <randomuser> fujin: i have
[05:26] <RubenAlonzo> fujin: hi there, i recently installed 10.10 coming froma completely all windows experience and found it quite easy, but it all depends on your comfort level with perhaps having to type in commands on the terminal. i kinda liked it though.
[05:26] <fujin> cool!  well i got it to run..  but then i wanted it to run at startup as well.. and i got that to work.  but now i dont see a terminal but users can still connect
[05:26] <fujin> i lov ehow lightweight it is
[05:27] <fujin> and the repos remind me of cydia and iphones
[05:27] <fujin> ive only given myself a week to mess with ubuntu, but i so badly want to get this minecraft server up and running so i can start tweaking and learning
[05:28] <RubenAlonzo> i liked the fact that it's relatively a virus free environment.
[05:28] <oven_> what do I type into compiz to make the ring switcher leave SMPlayer alone
[05:28] <mikeru> I have tearing
[05:28] <mikeru> even with metacity
[05:28] <mikeru> EVEN WITH METACITY!
[05:28] <RubenAlonzo> fujin: have you tried asking your question on the official ubuntu forums?
[05:28]  * mikeru echoes metacity...
[05:29] <fujin> no but i searched them along with google
[05:29] <ChogyDan> mikeru: what about the 260 drivers?
[05:29] <soreau> mikeru: What graphics driver are you using?
[05:29] <fujin> ive been working on this all night and i wanted to get it done before bed lol
[05:29] <mikeru> ChogyDan: :( let me install them
[05:29] <mikeru> soreau: Nvidia
[05:29] <mikeru> 270
[05:30] <RubenAlonzo> there is a specific forums for it, lemme go grab you the link, brb
[05:30] <ChogyDan> mikeru: you may need to use the ppa purge script
[05:30] <soreau> mikeru: Did you enable vsync in nvidia-settings
[05:30] <dustin> well i had to just reinstall the thing :(
[05:30] <dustin> thanks alot folks for your help

[05:47] <Jordan_U> MONSTA_UBUNTU: You're welcome.
[05:47] <alex__> hrm. xlib is apparently empty
[05:49] <alex__> anyone know how to change the focus of a window to some other window in xlib c++?
[05:50] <alex__> the api docs are really kind of useless
[05:50] <alex__> i'm sure there are 20 other lines of code that are missing before you actually set the focus to a window
[05:50] <mikeru> ChogyDan: Still tearing.
[05:51] <alex__> but no. they just tell u the function signature and that's it
[05:51] <ChogyDan> mikeru: I suggest you try the defaults first, before testing the later drivers
[05:51] <mikeru> ChogyDan: And thats what im testing
[05:51] <mikeru> 269
[05:51] <mikeru> 260*
[05:52] <ChogyDan> mikeru: did you downgrade xorg also?  But yeah, I have no answer for you  :(   maybe test out natty
[05:52] <mikeru> ChogyDan: Yup
[05:52] <mikeru> ChogyDan: Isnt it uhmm... Rather unstable?

[05:55] <JediMobius> yo peeps. anyone know what i can do about my boot problem? "Gave up waiting" after grub initializes. Sometimes it boots first try, sometimes 10nth...
[05:55] <alopez920> bye randomuser and thank you again!!!
[05:55] <mikeru> ChogyDan: I just cant try natty. I already have mac os x lion installed, dont wanna ruin my stable OS
[05:55] <Jordan_U> JediMobius: Try adding the kernel parameter "rootwait".
[05:57] <gusg> i just installed openssh-server and now I'd like to stop the sshd daemon, but the service keeps restarting.
[05:58] <JediMobius> @Jordan_U cool! as soon as I figure out how to do that.
[05:58] <JediMobius> (it's been so long since i got on irc, i forget how to reply..)
[05:59] <Jordan_U> JediMobius: Add it to GRUB_LINUX_CMDLINE_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub then run "sudo update-grub".
[06:00] <Ben64> gusg: have you tried "sudo /etc/init.d ssh stop"
[06:00] <gusg> Ben64: exactly
[06:00] <gusg> "/etc/init.d/ssh status" reports "* sshd is running"
[06:01] <Ben64> gusg: why would you want to stop it anyway
[06:02] <gusg> Well actually I don't want it running at startup at all. But first I'd like to stop it right now.
[06:02] <JediMobius> hmmm, no grub directory in /etc/default
[06:02] <gusg> Because I don't anticipate accepting any ssh connections
[06:02] <Ben64> but ssh is good :O
[06:03] <mjensen> Hi guys. I am trying to change my domain name in ubuntu 10.04. All documentation I find says to change it in the resolv.conf file... but that file is being autogenerated by the network manager or something like that.... so my question is... where do I then change it? I cannot find any documentation that explains this part... it ought to be simple... can any of you help please?
[06:03] <Ben64> gusg: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9531249
[06:04] <Ben64> mjensen: check /etc/hostname
[06:04] <mjensen> in my hostname file I just have my pc name: like mjensen-pc2
[06:04] <mjensen> nothing else
[06:04] <Ben64> thats where to change it
[06:05] <Jaguar163> lfhjdf )tcnm heccrbt
[06:05] <Jaguar163> есть русские??
[06:05] <gusg> Ben64: Thanks for the link. Do you have a clue what might be restarting the service?
[06:05] <bazhang> !ru | Jaguar163
[06:06] <Ben64> gusg: its the init script they talk about in that thread
[06:06] <Jordan_U> gusg: sudo service ssh stop
[06:06] <mjensen> ok thanks Ben64 i will try that. When I installed it, it asked me for domain name, so it added it somewhere. but i need to change it now, and was surprised that there wasnt anyplace to see it to change it.
[06:07] <gusg> Jordan_U: thanks!
[06:07] <Jordan_U> gusg: You're welcome.
[06:07] <Senjai> cd
[06:08] <mjensen> The manpages state though... that the /etc/hostname should only contain the hostname and not the full fqdn
[06:10] <G_Unit> Hi, has anybody used an MySQL on Ubuntu 10 for a central syslog server?
[06:10] <sacarlson> mjensen:  I think if you are going to use dhcp then you will need to modify the dhcp server that assigns the domain when you use dhclient to obtain an address
[06:12] <sacarlson> I really need to learn to type faster
[06:12] <JediMobius> Jordan_U: think i got it now... helps to upgrade to grub2
[06:12] <Jordan_U> JediMobius: You're welcome.
[06:13] <JediMobius> Jordan_U: Live long and prosper!
[06:15] <Softdroid> God morning
[06:15] <Softdroid> good
[06:15] <Softdroid> :)
[06:15] <steve____> hello all
[06:15] <steve____> anybody know how to change the name in irssi
[06:15] <Softdroid> Is it possible to move the items on the program list to own directories/categories?
[06:16] <Softdroid> in Ubuntu
[06:16] <steve____> yeah, softdroid, go to system>prefs>main menu or something like that
[06:16] <Softdroid> I have been there, but don't know how to move them to my submenus
[06:17] <Jordan_U> steve____: /nick newnick
[06:17] <Softdroid> For example i can make a new submenu and call it Softdroid
[06:18] <Softdroid> but how can I move items from Internet to Softdroid submenu?
[06:18] <overclucker> Softdroid: you can drag and drop menu items into differen menus/submenus
[06:19] <flax^_> i really digg win7's tiling where one can drag windows to the left and right and they size to half the screen. Any easy way to do that in buntu?
[06:19] <Softdroid> overclucker: Thanks alot, it worked. I didn't think that its possible
[06:19] <Softdroid> :)
[06:19] <Softdroid> Ubuntu forever
[06:19] <alex__> uh
[06:19] <alex__> I need to set focus to a window from c++
[06:19] <flax^_> or are there any better more awesome tiling I should learn? :P
[06:19] <alex__> how would I do this? i'm getting screwed by all this nice documentation for xlib x11 xorg and other XXX stuff that doesn't seem organized at all
[06:21] <alex__> so Ubuntu uses Xorg
[06:21] <sacarlson> alex__: I have seen a cli program that does that and have used it in ruby
[06:21] <alex__> and not x11?
[06:21] <alex__> heh c++ != ruby
[06:21] <jsoftw> alex__: I thought ruby was just an interpreted c++!
[06:22] <sacarlson> alex__: look at wmctrl
[06:22] <alex__> that must mean everything is quantum vibration
[06:22] <sacarlson> alex__: no I used the C program in ruby and ruby is writen in C
[06:23] <jsoftw> ?
[06:23] <jsoftw> sacarlson: what is the point you are making?
[06:23] <alex__> that library seems too specific
[06:24] <alex__> once i'm done doing something as simple (in concept) as focusing a window
[06:24] <fisix> books are for libraries
[06:24] <alex__> i need to read the pixels off it, and send mouse events to it
[06:24] <alex__> and this window is a virtual machine..
[06:24] <Jamba7> Can someone help me with dual booting
[06:24] <sacarlson> jsoftw:  alex__: wants to set focus on a window and that's what the C program wmctrl does so look at it's code
[06:24] <jsoftw> Jamba7: install windows, install ubuntu
[06:24] <jsoftw> Oh I see.
[06:24] <Jamba7> Do I have to wipe everything off my windows?
[06:24] <sacarlson> alex__: or just system() run it
[06:25] <jsoftw> Jamba7: no
[06:25] <jsoftw> Jamba7: do you have windows already installed I assume?
[06:25] <Jaguar163> шпрехен по-русски?
[06:25] <Jamba7> Well in that case I did that and the install failed
[06:25] <Jamba7> Yeah
[06:25] <alex__> ugh.. i have to read someone else's code
[06:25] <alex__> i hope there's not a lot
[06:25] <jsoftw> Jamba7: you could just resize the windows partition (from within windows) and then you should have room for ubuntu.
[06:25] <alex__> because i have a life
[06:26] <Jamba7> I did that. I had like sixty extra gigs for ubuntu
[06:26] <xiambax> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlHEJtflcmo :D
[06:26] <jsoftw> Jamba7: and so what did it moan about?
[06:26] <sacarlson> alex__: no you can just run it,  can't you run a command line program from C ?
[06:26] <[thor]> !ru | Jaguar163
[06:26] <Jamba7> That there was something wrong with the partition. I'm not exactly positive.
[06:27] <xiambax> alex__, If your lazy and like to complain. Linux probably isn't for you.
[06:28] <Jamba7> I even made the partition bigger in ubuntu when it gives you the option to slide the divider
[06:29] <banker247> why doesn't furius iso come up under default mount prograsms when i try to mount an ISO?  it doens't even come up on the dropdown i have to manually run the prog
[06:29] <alex__> xiambax, i'm pretty sure most developers disagree.
[06:29] <alex__> and agree laziness is a good thing but anyways
[06:30] <Jamba7> jsoftw:?
[06:30] <alex__> http://spiralofhope.wordpress.com/2010/02/03/wmctrl-user-documentation/ seems to not correspond to anything the wmctrl commands prints out
[06:30] <alex__> anyone got a better doc?
[06:31] <alex__> i'm seeing a bunch of -1's and no asterisks and other weird things
