[00:00] <BigNerd> join /#podnutz
[00:00] <puff> Huh, I'm getting "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at releases.ubuntu.com"
[00:00] <Murple> puff moneyisdust rww ... so basically I'm lost and I should downgrade my linux?
[00:01] <BigNerd> join/#podnutz
[00:01] <puff> It's not my netowrk, I can still get to google. Hm.
[00:01] <puff> Murple: Hard for me to say.  Sucks, I know.
[00:01] <rww> BigNerd: /join
[00:01] <BigNerd> Thanks
[00:01] <puff> Murple: What were you running, what did you upgrade to?
[00:02] <moneyisdust> Murple: lsmod , you see some modules for wireless?
[00:02] <moneyisdust> wm..
[00:02] <Murple> puff: I've tested linux several times throughout the years, I finally felt like this version was somehting I could actually use but not being connected to the internet (or even the computer right beside) is a monumental setback.
[00:02] <Bane99> hey do i activate my NVIDIA drivers?
[00:02] <Bane99> or rather... should i?
[00:02] <Batshua> hey guys?
[00:03] <Batshua> how do i locate my remote desktop app?
[00:03] <seph_> Bane99 ofc u should
[00:03] <Batshua> it says it's installed, but it's not in the menu
[00:03] <Maninho> Hello good evening, friends can help me with an error in emerald?
[00:03] <Murple> moneyisdust: I tried that, but it's difficult to say since I'm not quite sure what to look for. I see firewire, video card, iSight, bluetooth, usb stuff. I can't see anything wireless/broadcom related, but I may be overlooking it.
[00:03] <Maninho> emerald - replace
[00:03] <Maninho> Fault segmentation
[00:03] <puff> Murple: Yeah, unfortunately I'm not familiar iwth mac hardware.
[00:03] <Batshua> Bane99: If you're using nvidia, DEFINITELY
[00:03] <moneyisdust> lshw
[00:04] <rww> Maninho: emerald isn't supported here or by its developers and is broken in 11.04.
[00:04] <rww> !emerald
[00:04] <Batshua> Bane99: it's a lot better.
[00:04] <puff> Murple: Huh, googled "imac ubuntu" and the fourth autocomplete option was "imac ubuntu wireless"
[00:04] <Maninho> RWW, but use the summer 11:04
[00:04] <puff> Murple: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Intel_iMac
[00:04] <rww> Maninho: what?
[00:04] <Murple> puff: Yeah...
[00:05] <erkum> i have a question
[00:05] <Maninho> RWW, I
[00:05] <Maninho> RWW, thanks
[00:06] <puff> Murple: I wonder if there's an ubuntu-on-mac channel or forum that might help.
[00:06] <erkum> i updated my OS recently
[00:06] <puff> Murple: This is almost certainly some funky compatibility issue wtih the mac hardware, and the best bet for that is somebody who's run into the problem before.
[00:06] <Somelauw> Is ubuntu good on mac?
[00:06] <erkum> and after the update pictures on mozilla have weird colors
[00:06]  * Batshua beats head against the nearest wall
[00:06] <Somelauw> generally?
[00:06] <Batshua> I know it's installed!
[00:06] <Batshua> It says so!
[00:06] <puff> Murple: I have multiple friends who have run debian or ubuntu on their macbooks, so it's not unprecedented.
[00:06] <Chiawalla> hello
[00:06] <Batshua> How do I find/invoke/whatever remote desktop?
[00:06] <Chiawalla> Linux noob.  I'm connected to the net (wired), but whenever I try to install something from the Software Center it says "Failed to download package files - Check your Internet Connection"
[00:07] <erkum> can a pro nerd please pm me i need help
[00:07] <erkum> lol
[00:07] <Batshua> Chiawalla: Is your router working fine with other stuff?
[00:07] <Chiawalla> router is fine
[00:07] <puff> erkum: You're not going to get pm help, only public help, sorry.
[00:07] <ikonia> Chiawalla: are you on the computer now ?
[00:07] <Chiawalla> I'm browsing the web on it anyways
[00:07] <Chiawalla> yes, its next to me
[00:07] <Batshua> Ah, that's bizarre.
[00:07] <Batshua> Hrm.
[00:07] <PalinBachman2012> Chiawalla: have you tried using apt-get fromt he command line
[00:07] <ikonia> Chiawalla: ok - so it's connected to the net
[00:07] <erkum> ok thanks, this is just confusing
[00:07] <PalinBachman2012> the
[00:07] <Murple> puff moneyisdust : sudo lshw shows *.network UNCLAIMED. Network controller. product: BCM4311 802.11a/b/g vendor Broadcome etc..
[00:07] <nit-wit> erkum, if you run this command in a terminal what is the video card?
[00:08] <puff> erkum:  I know, stick with it...
[00:08] <Chiawalla> yes, its connected to the net
[00:08] <Batshua> It /could/ still be the router.  I had ONLY http die on me once.
[00:08] <ikonia> Chiawalla: can you please open a terminal (do you know how to do that) and type "sudo apt-get update" please
[00:08] <Chiawalla> websites are working
[00:08] <nit-wit> erkum, lspci | grep VGA
[00:08] <Chiawalla> ok 1 sec
[00:08] <erkum> nit-wit: which command?
[00:08] <Batshua> and I was on IRC begging for help and everyone was like NOPASTE, and I was like, NO HTTP
[00:08] <Batshua> so maybe you're having the reverse?
[00:08] <Chiawalla> how do I open a terminal in ubuntu?
[00:08] <Chiawalla> not used to the new interface
[00:08] <Batshua> if you haven't tried rebooting the router, I'd try it
[00:08] <Batshua> Chiawalla: it should be under "accessories"
[00:08] <nit-wit> ERKUTHERE NOW ABOVE YOUR LAST
[00:08] <Batshua> What version are you using?
[00:08] <PalinBachman2012> press win key and start typing terminal
[00:09] <erkum> nit-wit: i see now one sec
[00:09] <moneyisdust> Murple: did  you try to run a live cd of 11.04 and see if you have wireless?
[00:09] <nit-wit> erkum, sorry caplock got hit.;(
[00:09] <Chiawalla> ok I opened terminal
[00:09] <Chiawalla> I'm on the new one
[00:09] <Chiawalla> 11.04
[00:09] <ikonia> Chiawalla: ok, so "sudo apt-get update"
[00:09] <yassine_hell> hi
[00:09] <nit-wit> I swear  wasn't shouting.;)
[00:09] <Chiawalla> its done now
[00:09] <puff> rww: re: install from thumb drive, will I need to clear the drive?
[00:10] <yassine_hell> how can i open a text file and when it open, it goes directly to the bottom ?
[00:10] <ikonia> Chiawalla: did that work without problem ?
[00:10] <Murple> moneyisdust: Well not exactly, but i installed off a LiveCD which was about a month old. On that version WIFI worked fine. After upgrading to the most recent version it stopped working.
[00:10] <Chiawalla> oh cool, now the software center install is working
[00:10] <rww> puff: Depends on what mood the startup disk creator is in. It can do it for you if it wants to clear it, though.
[00:10] <Chiawalla> thank you ikonia and Batshua  :-)
[00:10] <ikonia> great
[00:10] <Murple> moneyisdust: I'm curious as to why lshw shows "*-network UNCLAIMED". What does that mean?
[00:11] <Chiawalla> now, how do I get the wireless to work
[00:11] <Chiawalla> I just installed an app called "Wifi Radar"
[00:11] <ikonia> !wireless | Chiawalla
[00:11] <Murple> Chiawalla: That's what I've been trying to fix the last few hours...
[00:11] <Chiawalla> I've got the driver installed
[00:11] <Chiawalla> it installed it when I installed Ubuntu
[00:12] <moneyisdust> Murple: i dont know,.... but you should burn the 11.04 to see if the live cd work, otherwise take your 10.10 live cd and see which module are loaded
[00:12] <Chiawalla> Broadcom 43xx
[00:12] <bael56> my /etc/apt/sources.list is messed up.. How can i restore it?
[00:12] <Chiawalla> It worked in previous xubuntu and ubuntu
[00:12] <dubert> Hello, I'm suffering from a VPN Problem on 10.x ubuntu and googling has led me to no results. I have my VPN setup for MSChapv2 and all appears well; this is the error: http://pastebin.com/ZUNthqLb
[00:12] <Batshua> Anyone know where my remote desktop server might be hiding?
[00:12] <erkum> nit-wit: now what do i do? i think i may have done it?
[00:12] <Murple> moneyisdust: Alright. Well thatnks so much for your help.
[00:12] <moneyisdust> Murple: take a look to dmesg , can help as well
[00:12] <bael56> I got alot of failed to fetch errors...
[00:12] <Murple> Chiawalla: You and I are having the exact same problem.
[00:12] <dubert> I've tried setting all-users and only this user to use VPN as well
[00:12] <Chiawalla> I don't even see the option to see wireless networks
[00:12] <Chiawalla> awesome Murple, lets work through this
[00:13] <nit-wit> erkum, the command just identifies the card post it.
[00:13] <Murple> Chiawalla 's wifi worked before upgrading to the latest version. I have Broadcom 4311.
[00:13] <isleshocky77> Anyone have experience with using ssh -D as a web proxy? Both the server and the client are ubuntu machines. When I change the client's firefox to use the ssh prox I just get a blank white screen on every site.
[00:13] <Chiawalla> I have broadcom corporation BCM4311 802.11 a/b/g (rev 01)
[00:13] <Chiawalla> guess we're the same Murple
[00:13] <Murple> that's the one, not sure about rev 01 though.
[00:13] <Chiawalla> I doubt it matters
[00:13] <nit-wit> Chiawalla, rthe link the bot gave you wil give you informay=tion try reading it.;)
[00:14] <Murple> This link looked promising to me but didn't help in the end: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[00:14] <nit-wit> ! who | Chiawalla  Murple
[00:14] <Chiawalla> Murple, I'll read the article, can you monitor the chan and message me if I miss anything Important?
[00:15] <Murple> Chiawalla: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-troubleshoot-wireless-network-connection-in-ubuntu.html If your network device comes back UNCLAIMED or there is no driver listed, then you have not correctly installed the driver for your device. You must review the procedures for installation of your wireless driver.
[00:15] <erkum> nit-wit: sorry im slow haha. i think this is it? [Radeon HD 3200 Graphics]
[00:16] <Murple> Chiawalla: When running lshw, my wifi card is listed as network UNCLAIMED so it seems to be a driver related problem, which I think i knew already.
[00:17] <ka1ser> hi, I formatted an ext3 partition on my PC with GParted, and after that GParted doesn't detect any partitions at all in my disk (/dev/sda)... fdisk -l show the partitions there... any idea of why GParted doesn't show up anything??
[00:17] <bael56> Please, how can I fix my sources.list??? when i run apt-get update I get alot of errors!!!
[00:18] <Murple> moneyisdust: dmesg was very confusing, but i couldn't spot anything relevant.
[00:18] <rww> bael56: copy the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ , link the page it creates here
[00:18] <Murple> moneyisdust: Just thought i'd let you know...
[00:18] <moneyisdust> :)
[00:19] <PalinBachman2012> Murple: Chiawalla did you try these instructions? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10758325&postcount=25
[00:20] <PalinBachman2012> you should probably read up and see if those folks had your same problem, tho
[00:21] <Murple> PalinBachman2012: That looks promising. Altough I believe I need STA instead of b43 (I have no idea what that is but my network card is listed under STA on this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx)
[00:22] <puff> rww: Startup Disk Creator is nice, but the "erase disk" option should be more helpful about jstu *whcih* disk you're erasing...
[00:23] <PalinBachman2012> also, make sure wifi switch is enabled in windows, sometimes that causes probs
[00:23] <Karen_m> i want to shutdown X, and get a shell.  How do I do this?
[00:24] <keegers> Hello everyone! I am sure you get this a lot, but I have a problem with Ubunu 11.04...
[00:24] <Murple> PalinBachman2012: What do you mean by enable in windows?
[00:24] <uRock> where does Network Manager hide the config file?
[00:25] <Murple> keegers: I think it's standard procedure to just ask instead of asking to ask, the channel probably has rules/suggestions for that sort of thing.
[00:25] <keegers> I just upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 now the computer feezes at the login screen
[00:25] <Murple> keegers: Then you're worse off than I am :)
[00:26] <keegers> Well by login screen I mean the lovely purple screen before I can login...
[00:26] <keegers> Thats no goo Murple
[00:26] <bael56> I am running ubuntu server, i am trying to install ubuntu-desktop but i get alot of failed to fetch errors.. any suggestions?????
[00:26] <keegers> *good
[00:26] <PalinBachman2012> Murple: i mean the function keys that turn wifi on and off and perhaps even the hardware switch can sometimes only be enabled from windows
[00:26] <Karen_m> how do I *stop* x11, leaving a shell?
[00:27] <PalinBachman2012> a windows install
[00:27] <Karen_m> ctl+alt+f1, takes me to a shell but i see xorg still running
[00:27] <stallione> I am running apcupsd 3.14.8, everything is working. Would like to know how can I shutdown other linux hosts connected on the network attached to the same UPS?
[00:27] <psusi> Kardos, sudo stop gdm
[00:27] <JoeR1> what is the command to display CPU id and information?
[00:27] <puff> So, I'm installing ubuntu on the new machine, which has a 500GB drive.  Historically I have been a bit gunshy of LVM, mainly because I *like* having my stuff on separate physical partitions.  What are people's opinions about this today?
[00:27] <PalinBachman2012> Murple: but you will get an error to that effect
[00:27] <psusi> Karen_m, rather, sudo stop gdm
[00:27] <PalinBachman2012> sometimes :)
[00:27] <bael56> I am running ubuntu server, i am trying to install ubuntu-desktop but i get alot of failed to fetch errors.. any suggestions?????
[00:27] <Kardos> but i dont wanna do that
[00:27] <Kardos> :)
[00:28] <psusi> puff, LVM is awesome... I wrote a wiki entry about it: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lvm
[00:28] <Corey> bael56: Fix your connectivity?
[00:28] <Karen_m> psusi, thank you!
[00:28] <Karen_m> yay
[00:28] <Murple> PalinBachman2012: I see... no hardware switch on iMac and only Ubuntu OS.
[00:28] <PalinBachman2012> good
[00:28] <nit-wit> psusi, is your ppa up to oneiric yet
[00:28] <ubuntucork> yay, brave ones I have returned ;-)
[00:28] <uRock> where does Network Manager hide the config file?
[00:28] <bael56> Corey, it works.. I can ping and everything..
[00:28] <psusi> nit-wit, nope... what specifically are you looking for?
[00:28] <claudiomet> bael56 change ubuntu mirrors, my local mirros always have problems, the main server always work for me
[00:29] <nit-wit> psusi, I was using the boot load script
[00:29] <JoeR1> I need the terminal command to display CPU id and information
[00:29] <PalinBachman2012> Murple: i only mentioned it cause i had to boot into win and enable wifi function keys once, and turn on the hardware switch, even to use a dongle
[00:29] <iFrenzy> does anyone know how to reset my dual screen display settings without the second screen being plugged in because when i plug it in both screens go black
[00:29] <psusi> nit-wit, boot load script?
[00:29] <uRock>  where does Network Manager hide the config file?
[00:29] <bael56> claudiomet, Can you give me more details? :)
[00:29] <nit-wit> psusi, what evefr that faster boot thingy was if I'm correct.
[00:29] <Waqas> can somebody help me instsallaing flashplayer
[00:29] <ubuntucork> JoeR1: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[00:29] <bael56> remove se from se.archive.ubuntu....?
[00:29] <Murple> PalinBachman2012: Understood, thanks again..
[00:30] <Chiawalla> I fixed it :-)
[00:30] <uRock> Waqas, install and use the flashaid add-on
[00:30] <JoeR1> ubuntucork thanks
[00:30] <rjonesx1> anyone here ever successfully mounted SSH/SFTP drives on boot?
[00:30] <puff> Hm, this says there's a special verison of ubuntu for the thinkpad t520: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201102-7229
[00:30] <puff> The rep at lenovo didhn't know anything about it, anybody know where to get it?
[00:30] <keegers> Hmm I think my problem may be related to my wireless driver. I have a Toshiba laptop and when I plug in the network line, the computer boots without any issues
[00:30] <psusi> nit-wit, ohh, you mean my modified ureadahead?
[00:30] <ubuntucork> JoeR1: here are my bank account details for a large donation 40-400....lol :-P
[00:30] <claudiomet> my "/etc/apt/sources.list" says http://cl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[00:30] <iFrenzy> does anyone know how to reset my dual screen display settings without the second screen being plugged in because when i plug it in both screens go black
[00:31] <uRock> puff, which version did you have?
[00:31] <claudiomet> but cl.archive.ubuntu.com always fails
[00:31] <Waqas> i have to copy files to the root directory how does that work as a super user??
[00:31] <bael56> claudiomet, shall i only remove e.g cl. ??
[00:31] <uRock> Waqas, install and use the flashaid add-on
[00:31] <claudiomet> yes
[00:31] <Waqas> ok
[00:31] <JoeR1> ubuntucork - $.50 headin your way, and you earned it!
[00:31] <claudiomet> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[00:31] <bael56> claudiomet, and only have http://archive...
[00:31] <puff> uRock: Thinkpda t520.
[00:31] <bael56> ah okey
[00:31] <bael56> .<
[00:31] <bael56> :)
[00:31] <bael56> thanks
[00:31] <FloodBot1> bael56: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:31] <uRock> puff, which version of Ubuntu did you have?
[00:32] <nit-wit> psusi, yeah that's it I see you have oneiric set in there cool
[00:32] <claudiomet> yor sources.list must be diferent, my sources.list says ".cl" because i'm from chile
[00:32] <psusi> nit-wit, I don't think there is a newer version yet in oneiric, so the natty version should work
[00:32] <ubuntucork> JoeR1:  what version of ubuntu you using??
[00:32] <tripelb> I would likesome help. I have a 2nd drive plugged in. I want to copy its contents to my main drive. It has ubuntu on it. The last time I tried there was something about permissions. What is the proper procedure, before I mess things up.
[00:32] <puff> uRock: Oh, on the thinkpad? Nothing, yet.
[00:33] <puff> uRock: On my t43p, 10.04 LTS.
[00:33] <rjonesx1> I guess this is a weird way to ask it, but I would really like to see a program that ties SSHFS / AutoFS with a simple GUI so you can easily create auto-mounted SSH/SFTP drives. I imagine this could at least be scripted quite easily. Anyone interested in this kind of thing? Is there a place to go where I could pay for a custom script like this?
[00:33] <uRock>  Use the LTS on the Lenovo, too
[00:33] <uRock>  where does Network Manager hide the config file?
[00:34] <ubuntucork> I love the LTS releases.  Am I getting old and boring? ;-)
[00:34] <psusi> uRock, what config file?
[00:34] <cipher_> uRock, i am relatively sure it uses the standard one
[00:34] <nit-wit> psusi, cool I have breakable Oneiric, brought it back from the dead several times, not sure how sheer luck I think.
[00:34] <iFrenzy> does anyone know how to reset my dual screen display settings without the second screen being plugged in because when i plug it in both screens go black
[00:34] <uRock> psusi, the network manager config
[00:34] <lefty|afk> Okay quick question is it possible to put use ubuntu off of a 4gb SD-Card ?
[00:34] <puff> uRock: Cool, thanks.
[00:34] <ubuntucork> tripleb: variety of ways to approach this, do you know what user your drive is mounting as?
[00:35] <ubuntucork> lefty|afk:  shortanswer yes!
[00:35] <nit-wit> lefty|afk, not natty
[00:35] <Waqas> Urock I installed something hopefully that helps otherwise i have to use super user to copy files to root which i also dont understand how
[00:35] <iFrenzy> @lefty|afk if the computer bios will boot from sd
[00:35] <psusi> nit-wit, yea... the natty version of ureadahead from my ppa should still work in Oneiric... you just have to download the .debs manually and install them with dpkg -i
[00:35] <lefty|afk> iFrenzy, It can
[00:35] <lefty|afk> nit-wit, what ?
[00:35] <lefty|afk> ubuntucork, thanks !
[00:35] <nit-wit> psusi, I'm lazy i use gdebi.;)
[00:35] <ubuntucork> brb
[00:35] <iFrenzy> lefty|afk: then yes it will work you just have to change the bios to boot the sdcard first
[00:35] <uRock> Waqas, you should have to run the add-on for it to install the flash package for your system
[00:35] <JoeR1> Anybody know a good Graphically intense 3D game for linux?
[00:36] <psusi> nit-wit, if you had it installed and did an upgrade you should still be using it
[00:36] <nit-wit> lefty|afk, I believe the natty needs just over 4 gigs to be happy to install.
[00:36] <Waqas> ok
[00:36] <moses> why does firefox fail
[00:36] <moses> hard for me
[00:36] <lefty|afk> fuck
[00:37] <nit-wit> psusi, I did an install and upgrade just to get Oneiric the original broke, so I'm not sure if it's installed as of now but will put it in the apt list
[00:37] <Waqas> urock i am downloading the flash player for linux but i dont know how to copy the files to root and in which folder?
[00:37] <iFrenzy> does anyone know how to reset my dual screen display settings without the second screen being plugged in because when i plug it in both screens go black
[00:38] <psusi> nit-wit, adding the ppa won't help now since it will look for the oniric version... check what version you have installed now with apt-cache policy ureadahea
[00:38] <keegers> I figured it out. It was a problem with the driver I needed for my wireless to work on 10.04.
[00:38] <rationalOgre> Greetings folks, trying to wrap my head around a wierd issue I am receiving on 10.04. I run PowerTOP and one of the issues it highlights is that an audio device is active 100% of the time. So, after googling, and finding many with the same error but no solutions, I decided to dig in and see what I could find. However, according to pulseaudio, all my sound devices are on standby.
[00:38] <keegers> thanks everyone for the inspiration!
[00:38] <nit-wit> psusi, that makes sense thanks.;)
[00:38] <rationalOgre> acording to pactl list
[00:38] <pawel__> oli
[00:38] <bael56> Guys, something is wierd with my /etc/apt/sources.list ... I have removed the country prefix before the url..

[00:39] <Waqas> can somebody give me the command on how to copy flash files to root directory
[00:39] <Waqas> as super user
[00:39] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i install virtualbox on ubuntu 10.10 x86?
[00:39] <nit-wit> bael56, run cat /etc/apt/sources.list and pastebin it
[00:39] <rationalOgre> Waqas: do you mean from a flash drive, or shockwave flash?
[00:40] <bael56> nit-wit, Its on another computer I am in shell..
[00:40] <Waqas> shockwave flash installation after extracting the files
[00:40] <Somelauw> Hi, can I create an empty .xinit file in my home dir? Will it be launched before or after logging into gnome login manager>
[00:40] <Waqas> rationalOgre: I mean it says i have to copy the files as super user to root
[00:40] <Somelauw> ?
[00:40] <Waqas> how do i do that
[00:41] <bael56> nit-wit, sec...
[00:41] <rationalOgre> Waqas: sudo cp /files/to/copy /
[00:41] <nit-wit> bael56, hmmm your having update problems and the list seems insignificant.
[00:41] <Logan_> !virtualbox | linux_is_my_hero
[00:41] <rationalOgre> Though why you would have to copy them to the root of your install is beyond me.
[00:41] <Waqas> ok
[00:42] <nit-wit> Waqas, if you want a working flash install flash aid in FF and run it.
[00:42] <claudiomet> bael56 some firewall blocking ?? in my work a firewall is blocking and the updates doesn't work
[00:42] <nit-wit> Waqas, FF add ons
[00:42] <Scunizi> will the non-free flash plugin have issues when you have 2 different browsers open and both using flash? ie.. chromium & FF
[00:42] <Waqas> ok firefox addons im going to watch that
[00:43] <ubuntucork> claudiomet: what is this four letter swear word you speak of beginning with "wo" and ending in "rk" :P
[00:43] <bael56> claudiomet, http://pastie.org/1973826 here it is..
[00:43] <rationalOgre> Scunizi: Doubtful. They generally make their own sandbox for flash stuff.
[00:43] <bael56> nit-wit, here it is mate: http://pastie.org/1973826
[00:43] <nit-wit> thanks
[00:43] <Keegers> OK my laptop will crash unless I have the network line plugged into it. I am on a Toshiba laptop and I upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10
[00:43] <Scunizi> rationalOgre: nice to know.. FF is failing and chromium isn't.. mostly.. it's a SaS flash based app for work
[00:44] <bael56> claudiomet, I am not behind router/firewall or someting
[00:44] <Waqas> im now installing flash-aid 2.1.1
[00:45] <iFrenzy> does anyone know how to reset my dual screen display settings without the second screen being plugged in because when i plug it in both screens go black
[00:45] <ubuntucork> I find ALL flash is buggy but the new beta on the adobe the least buggy of the lot, also todays chromium seems to crash less on heavy flash sites
[00:45] <rationalOgre> Scunizi: you shouldn't have an issue. I've never heard of one. Time was you had to copy the flash files manually from your FF install to Chromium, now I believe flash installs in chromium automatically.
[00:45] <ubuntucork> iFrenzy:  did you check your bios settings?
[00:45] <rationalOgre> I can go on youtube on both FF and Chrome at the same time.
[00:45] <Waqas> nit-wit: i need to execute on of the installation methods from the extension menu, how do i do that.?
[00:45] <ubuntucork> Chrome has Flash preinstalled :)
[00:46] <Waqas> they say its recommend to use wizard mode
[00:46] <ubuntucork> it is part of the deal they done with adobe to have early access to the code
[00:46] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: it was working fine until i was watching a hulu video and it went black and now when i plug it in both screens go black, if I restart it will work up until i log in and then both go black
[00:46] <Scunizi> rationalOgre: I had a "DOH!" moment.. I was logged into the app in chromium and it didn't like that fact in FF
[00:46] <rationalOgre> Scunizi: Ah, that might be more a function of how the app is written.
[00:46] <ubuntucork> iFrenzy: try dpkg --reconfigure X.org (i think its x.org anyhow, the xserver)
[00:46] <nit-wit> bael56, I don't see anything wrong with the list but I'm not a sever person.
[00:46] <rationalOgre> As opposed to the instances of flash conflicting
[00:47] <Scunizi> rationalOgre: could be.. it uses a "Scout" login tokin
[00:47] <nit-wit> Waqas, I'm not sure what your talking about, nor I think will I.;)
[00:47] <Keegers> Anyone have any thoughts on my problem? What information do you need?
[00:47] <Waqas> i installed flash aid and than it said i had to install something or use wizard to do something as installation
[00:47] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: it says error unknowon option --reconfigure
[00:47] <bael56> nit-wit, Could you give me yours? :P
[00:48] <ubuntucork> Keegers: sorry for the dopey question, what issue?
[00:48] <Keegers> OK my laptop will crash unless I have the network line plugged into it. I am on a Toshiba laptop and I upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10
[00:48] <Waqas> i installed flash aid but the youtube video is not coming
[00:48] <rationalOgre> Scunizi: Oh then yeah, that was the app that was going nuts, not your flash install.
[00:48] <Keegers> No worries I know people are busy
[00:48] <ubuntucork> iFrenzy:  sorry typo dpkg-reconfigure X.org
[00:49] <rationalOgre> Keegers: Does it give any sort of error message when it crashes?
[00:49] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: package
[00:49] <ubuntucork> Keegers, by crash does it just stop working even on the terminal or is it the display going wonky etc. can you explain?
[00:49] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: package 'x.org' is not installed
[00:49] <ubuntucork> iFrenzy no idea if it is called X.org or x.org
[00:49] <Keegers> By crash I mean screen freezes and the computer becomes unresponsive.
[00:49] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: neither works
[00:50] <Keegers> rationalOgre: no message
[00:50] <ubuntucork> xserver-(your chipset name, nvidia etc etc etc)
[00:50] <rationalOgre> Keegers: At what point does this freeze happen? During initial bootup before you get to the GDM?
[00:50] <nit-wit> bael56, I have natty you want this. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[00:50] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: i just have like an intel internal graphics thing its a laptop
[00:51] <Keegers> rationalOgre:  GDM loads. It freezes right on the login menu
[00:51] <ubuntucork> KEegers: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-intel
[00:51] <nit-wit> Keegers, choose the recovery kernel then the failx boot from the gui
[00:51] <ubuntucork> not too sure if the intel chip yoru using supports dual screen, mine doesnt :(
[00:51] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: I think you were directing that at me, but it didn't work either way
[00:52] <Waqas> how do i use and install flash-aid for firefox extension?
[00:52] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: it does because it was working earlier
[00:52] <ubuntucork> iFrenzy: yup sorry so, not a gui guy, if i cant see black and white, its too many shades of grey for me ;-)
[00:52] <Bane99> hey guys
[00:52] <nit-wit> Waqas, open ff open addons tyoe in flash aid install restart and run it if it does not have apopup
[00:52] <iFrenzy> ubuntucork: the thing is i had it set to only display on my tv earlier, so when i plug it in i'm sure its defaulting to that display, so that's the reason my pc goes black
[00:52] <Bane99> any reason why the computer would show two different linux OS's to boot from
[00:53] <Bane99> the difference being a number 28 and 31
[00:53] <iFrenzy> bane99: I noticed that problem when i updated my kernel
[00:53] <Bane99> it just appeared lol
[00:53] <jamil_1> Hello everyone, How do you ppl switch between multiple instances of an applications e.g 5-6 nautilus windows ?
[00:53] <Bane99> i just decided to use the higher number
[00:53] <nit-wit> Bane99, this are kernels
[00:53] <hiexpo> Bane99, those are kernals you updated leave them alone
[00:53] <nit-wit> *those
[00:53] <jamil_1> in unity
[00:53] <agitkid> Does anyone know if there are still any jaunty repos around?
[00:53] <Bane99> use the higher number?
[00:53] <ubuntucork> This is why I run LTS releases 6-7 months AFTER they launch :-)
[00:53] <Bane99> i'm confused
[00:53] <Bane99> i updated a kernel?
[00:53] <ubuntucork> Stability :)
[00:54] <Bane99> all i did was install wine
[00:54] <hiexpo> Bane99, yep
[00:54] <Bane99> and a bunch of updates
[00:54] <nit-wit> agitkid, google will know jaunty is past life,
[00:54] <rationalOgre> jamil_1: ALT+tab?
[00:54] <sparda_> question: I noticed that Mac users can run an 'open' command line utilty to open up, say a html page, through the cmd.  I tried it in Ubuntu, say: open index.html, but it didn't work.  Is there any analogue to this in ubuntu, or I am just using it wrong?
[00:54] <Bane99> so just choose the one at the top of the list?
[00:54] <Keegers> ubuntucork:  http://pastebin.com/edqkYD2U
[00:54] <hiexpo> Bane99, yes
[00:54] <Bane99> ok
[00:54] <arand> sparda_: xdg-open is one
[00:54] <Bane99> anyways time to install Starcraft :P
[00:54] <Bane99> woohoo
[00:54] <Bane99> :P
[00:54] <jamil_1> rage: but that is too cumbersome...no other way other than double clicking nautilus icon on sidebar ?
[00:55] <alextybob> hi does anyone know how to recover a corrupted .odt (open office document) file / find an old copy of it?
[00:55] <agitkid> nit-wit: so that is no ;)
[00:55] <hiexpo> always good to have the previous kernal to fall back on if you break something Bane99
[00:55] <Keegers> nit-wit:  I do not know what you mean...
[00:55] <erkum> hey im back
[00:55] <sparda_> arand: thanks,  will look into it!
[00:55] <SpaceBass> anyone using a drobo s with their ubuntu box?
[00:55] <erkum> i tried fixing my problem via the guide but it got too confusing
[00:55] <Bane99> my linux experience is limited to flashing ROMs on my android phone
[00:55] <Bane99> :P
[00:55] <nit-wit> agitkid, there are probably some but jaunty is past life no official open repo's persay
[00:55] <Logan_> !anyone | SpaceBass
[00:56] <jamil_1> rationalOgre: but that is too cumbersome...no other way other than double clicking nautilus icon on sidebar ?
[00:56] <SpaceBass> correction?. :)
[00:56] <alextybob> does anyone know how to recover a corrupted .odt (open office document) file / find an old copy of it?
[00:56] <aminiesta> get a symbian phone,a truly smartphone
[00:56] <bael56> nit-wit, Cool, but I have version 9? Does it metter??
[00:56] <nit-wit> Keegers, do you get a grub menu when you boot
[00:56] <erkum> ok here is my problem. in mozilla pictures seem to have inverted/neon colors. especially on facebook but other sites as well
[00:56] <agitkid> nit-wit: thx for the response.. i am even looking for unofficial repos. i have to finish on VM and i don't have time to deal with upgrading to an LTS version
[00:56] <Bane99> isn't symbian dieing out?
[00:56] <Waqas> can somebody tell me exactly how to get flash aid working in linux?
[00:56] <erkum> also video is slightly choppy when full screen
[00:57] <SpaceBass> I have a new Dobo S with usb 3.0 - according to drobom (in the drobo-utils) package it is not a drobo because the device ID is "USB 3.0" rather than "drobo"  - anyone know a workaround or way to get drobom to recognize the device?
[00:57] <alextybob> anyone good with file recovery?
[00:57] <ubuntucork> sparda_: what is a mac? :-P
[00:57] <rationalOgre> alextybob: If you load it in OpenOffice it should try to recover it.
[00:57] <Keegers> nit-wit:  no it goes right to GDM
[00:57] <alextybob> yeah but when it does it's all hashes and random code and stuff
[00:57] <ubuntucork> sparda_:  wget url will download a full url for you
[00:57] <ubuntucork> sparda_: for full instructions see man or info wget
[00:58] <sparda_>  ubuntucork: http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/
[00:58] <rationalOgre> alextybob: You on Ubuntu?
[00:58] <alextybob> yes
[00:58] <ubuntucork> sparda: it says "site not available due to running internet exploder 3.0" :-P
[00:59] <erkum> anybody? nitwit helped me earlier but i didnt get anywhere...
[00:59] <ubuntucork> erkum: whats wrong?
[00:59] <alextybob> rationalOgre,  I can't find any ubuntu orientated file recovery programs that support odt recovery
[00:59] <erkum> cork: after the new ubuntu update my colors when viewing pics on mozilla are screwy
[00:59] <erkum> like neon/inverted
[00:59] <byerley> if anyone is handy with grub: I installed windows which overwrote my ubuntu generated MBR. I booted with a generic linux livecd(which didn't have grub), then mounted /dev and /proc onto the original linux partition(also mounted). grub-install ran smoothly, but now I get "file not found" errors when trying to boot from any of the partitions. Any ideas?
[00:59] <rationalOgre> ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/backup
[01:00] <rationalOgre> See if an old copy is in there
[01:00] <ubuntucork> alextybob: i had some success's with the built in file recovery dialog
[01:00] <alextybob> tried there nothing :(
[01:00] <ubuntucork> erkum: sorry wouldnt even know where to start looking there!
[01:00] <nit-wit> Keegers, sorry I thought you problem was a boot the problem you do have though is a bit unusual in that it makes no sense, but stranger things have happened.
[01:00] <erkum> haha ok thanks
[01:00] <alextybob> yeah that normally works but i lost power as it was (i think) saving
[01:00] <alextybob> ubuntucork,
[01:00] <erkum> cork: what about choppy video at fullscreen
[01:01] <ubuntucork> erkum: alextybob: no more of a server head here sorry :(
[01:01] <erkum> lol
[01:01] <alextybob> hah fair
[01:02] <alextybob> its just i've lost 3 days of work
[01:02] <erkum> ok cork: xchat help. how do i find rooms just to chat?
[01:02] <ubuntucork> I always always say stick with the LTS as they are at least stable and no new changes just bugfixes
[01:02] <alextybob> and i have exams soon :(
[01:02] <alextybob> so i'm stressed as it is
[01:02] <alextybob> so any help would be massively appreciated
[01:02] <ka1ser> hi, how is it possible that 'fdisk -k' detects my hard disk but GParted don't??
[01:02] <rww> erkum: try #ubuntu-offtopic or #defocus
[01:02] <rationalOgre> alextybob: Do you know if you have autosaves turned on?
[01:02] <alextybob> i do
[01:03] <ubuntucork> ka1ser:  GParted has to be run as superuser
[01:03] <agitkid> anyone else who might know where to find un-official repos for jaunty ?
[01:03] <rww> !eol | agitkid
[01:03] <rww> agitkid: second link has URLs of jaunty's repositories now
[01:03] <alextybob> rationalOgre, I do
[01:03] <ubuntucork> agitkid: best options for you are ubuntu-tweak
[01:03] <agitkid> thx
[01:03] <rww> agitkid: bear in mind that using them instead of upgrading is a rather silly idea, but it sounds like you're not going to listen to people telling you that :|
[01:03] <ubuntucork> oops jaunty!!!
[01:04] <ubuntucork> agitkid: upgrade to 10.04 mmmmmm LTS goodness
[01:04] <agitkid> rww: if i was dealing with just one server, i agree. i am dealing with a ton of VMs on a tested software platform
[01:04] <rationalOgre> alextybob: and it's nowhere to be found in the folder I referred to above?
[01:04] <agitkid> that transition requires testing and time
[01:05] <alextybob> nope
[01:05] <erkum> rww: defocus says "cannot send to channel" ? what did i do wrong
[01:05] <alextybob> not at all rationalOgre
[01:05] <rww> erkum: read #defocus's /topic
[01:05] <ubuntucork> agitkid: LTS=support for five whole years on the server!  count them!!
[01:05] <agitkid> ubuntucork: yeah, that's where i am going for sure :)
[01:05] <erkum> rww: ohh i think i get it. probation period
[01:05] <rww> erkum: basically, yeah.
[01:06] <rationalOgre> alextybob: So all you have is a corrupted .odt file?
[01:06] <Waqas> does somebody know how to get flash-aid working after installation in fire fox/ so that i can see videos on youtube?
[01:06] <ka1ser> ubuntucork: it is being ran as superuser
[01:06] <rationalOgre> Did you try opening it with Archive Manager?
[01:06] <rjonesx1> is sshfs the only way to mount an SSH/SFTP server? basically, I want to be able to open/edit/save files off of other servers without always having to login or sync locally...
[01:07] <ka1ser> ubuntucork: im on live cd... I think it does that by default
[01:07] <alextybob> rationalOgre,  yes very much so
[01:07] <ubuntucork> agitkid: I host on a VM too, and instead of apache am delighted with the cherokee ppa as it has a "webapp" store allowing defining a virtual server a snap AND installing the required app, eg. wordpress, drupal etc etc... no more tarballs :)
[01:07] <alextybob> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10862615#post10862615
[01:07] <alextybob> rationalOgre, ^^^ for details
[01:07] <erkum> ok xchat question again. im in some rooms but how do i find a room list?
[01:07] <ka1ser> also, ubuntu installation doesn't find any partitions
[01:07] <ubuntucork> ka1ser:  nope not for all releases :)
[01:07] <x3k4p> hi please i need tool to control my router dlink
[01:07] <ka1ser> but on ubuntu live cd, I am able to even mount my partitions and see the content
[01:08] <xangua> !alis | erkum
[01:08] <nit-wit> Waqas, there is a new icon in the FF top panel on the right side click it.
[01:08] <rww> !alis | erkum
[01:08] <rww> eep, xangua beat me to it
[01:08] <Waqas> ok
[01:08] <Waqas> nit-wit i try it
[01:09] <agitkid> ubuntucork: that's cool. i use nginx for speed tho. and i build these VMs on a xen dom0 that requires me to use 9.04, which is why i need to find a repo just for this week, until i have time to test the upgrade to 10.4
[01:09] <Waqas> yes i saw it nit-wit
[01:09] <nit-wit> erkum, right click server list of channels
[01:09] <Keegers> Bah!
[01:09] <x3k4p> hi please i need tool to control my router dlink
[01:09] <Keegers> nit-wit:  No worries. But it is a problem since it is a laptop and I cant keep starting it plugged into the Ethernet
[01:09] <Keegers> nit-wit: I had a 3rd party driver for my wireless card in 10.10. I removed it but still no luck.
[01:10] <nit-wit> Waqas, flash aid will find the lates adobe install it and remove the installer and any other flash not needed.
[01:10] <ubuntucork> agitkid: looks like the answr is no as others said it is gone past eol, your in a dark corner of the universe I am afraid.  Repeating the number 42 might help though ;-)
[01:10] <x3k4p> hi please i need tool to control my router dlink
[01:10] <Waqas> yes it finished
[01:10] <Waqas> i have to restart fox now
[01:10] <reval> is there a way to increase the amount I can scroll up on my terminal?
[01:11] <ubuntucork> x3k4p: try a web browser and the router manual.
[01:11] <erkum> haha im linux retarded. its like getting help but the answers are in spanish! ill just take the slow kids role and learn soon hopefully
[01:11] <nit-wit> reval, yes
[01:11] <smw> reval, it is somewhere in the settigns
[01:11] <smw> settings*
[01:11] <Waqas> it worked out nit-wit, thanks for your support
[01:11] <erkum> thanks for all your help!!
[01:11] <Waqas> nit-wit do you have msn i would like to learn from you
[01:11] <viking667> quick question - I just added a font to my system, but I can't see it present in xfontsel. I've issued "xset fp rehash" but that didn't make any difference. What am I missing out?
[01:11] <ubuntucork> erkum:  google fullcirclemagazine, it even pets your hand while holding it for you :)
[01:11] <wolter> are compiz crashes still common in natty? I am still getting them
[01:11] <nit-wit> Waqas, no problem it is as if ut is magic .;)
[01:11] <nit-wit> *it
[01:11] <Cube``> guys
[01:11] <Waqas> isee
[01:11] <Cube``> halt vs poweroff?
[01:12] <Waqas> ok
[01:12] <smw> reval, edit -> profile preferences -> scrolling
[01:12] <Cube``> whats the diff?
[01:12] <nit-wit> Cube``, yes
[01:12] <reval> thanks =)
[01:12] <ubuntucork> its it a truetype font viking?
[01:12] <viking667> Also, I'm running stuff on a remote display, what server do I need to put the fonts on? the remote X server, or the host I'm running the program from?
[01:12] <Cube``> nit-wit: whats the diff?
[01:12] <ubuntucork> Cube``:  for eco credentials, always poweroff!!!
[01:12] <Cube``> ubuntucork: why?
[01:12] <viking667> it's from the xfont-jmk package...
[01:12] <nit-wit> Waqas, I'm a open source user mostly, and there is not much I really know overall .
[01:13] <erkum> thanks cork ill check it out
[01:13] <ubuntucork> Cube``: poweroff = zero engery usage.  in some machines halt does not poweroff the machine
[01:13] <JoeR1> oh holy carp, I'm still in here huh?
[01:13] <viking667> I basically installed the package the standard way (apt-get install xfont-jmk)
[01:14] <nit-wit> Cube``, not suye of the answer how are you using halt ans power off.
[01:14] <Hilikus> how do i restart x?
[01:14] <ubuntucork> Cube``:  i always make sure by just issuing init 0
[01:14] <nit-wit> sudo start gdm
[01:14] <Cube``> ubuntucork: aah ok
[01:14] <Cube``> ubuntucork: just like that?
[01:15] <smw> Hilikus, sudo restart gdm
[01:15] <Cube``> DAMN thats gotta be the leet way to do it
[01:15] <nit-wit> Hilikus, sudo start gdm
[01:15] <ubuntucork> Cube: "init 0" but without the quotes
[01:15] <DGCJ> why the unity clock does not change it's format to 12 hours???...
[01:15] <smw> nit-wit, does start also work?
[01:15] <ubuntucork> I run on servers so guis not available
[01:16] <viking667> actually, the best way of powering off isn't just "shutdown -h ...." - pulling the power cord (or even the power switch) does wonders for saving energy.
[01:16] <ubuntucork> PS windows = work:  therefore work=bad. bad=avoid.  therefore work=avioid and by inference windows also = avoid :-)
[01:16] <nit-wit> smw, I don'rt think so my command is actually missing something but works if you run a stop gdm in the tty
[01:16] <wolter> compiz crashes anyone?
[01:16] <nit-wit> wolter, you been trying to get the bling?
[01:17] <smw> wolter, no thanks. I don't like compiz crashes
[01:17] <rjonesx1> so... hmm, any way to mount ssh/sftp other than SSHFS?
[01:17] <wolter> nit-wit, nah, been using compiz for a long time but since natty it occasionally crashes
[01:17] <ubuntucork> viking667: on most hardware init 0 stops everything that the mobo powers even itself.  but yeah the power switch afterwards is always my favourite too :-)  I have to pay for my energy and tommorows generation pays for our misusing it :-)
[01:17] <wolter> nit-wit, does it never crash at your end
[01:17] <wolter> ?
[01:17] <smw> rjonesx1, why would you want another method?
[01:18] <nit-wit> wolter, I have it set with the cube etc  loose the window titile bar once in a while
[01:18] <sudokill> any crazy people in here?
[01:18] <ubuntucork> rjonesx1:  I dont like mounting SSH/SFTP as anything that stays open long enough can be snooped eventually.  A risk not worth taking for 30 secs/day of inconveneince
[01:18] <viking667> I've got machines here that don't entirely stop using energy, even though most of the hardware is off, there's usually enough trickling through the circuits watching for power-on events (i.e. power switches)
[01:18] <Trfsrfr> hey can anyone here help me with dual-monitor and sound/audio issues? Thanks
[01:18] <nit-wit> sudokill, look in the mirror.;)
[01:18] <Waqas> nasa is active
[01:18] <Trfsrfr> hey can anyone here help me with dual-monitor and sound/audio issues? Thanks
[01:18] <wolter> nit-wit, hm yes thats what I am talking about I think, you lose the panel too? And Desktop, etc..
[01:18] <rww> sudokill: #ubuntu-offtopic has plenty ;P
[01:18] <ubuntucork> sudokill:  hi<EMAIL_ADDRESS>:-P
[01:19] <smw> rjonesx1, the file manager will do it for you if you go to an sftp uri.
[01:19] <wolter> Trfsrfr, when you ask to ask in any irc channel, you will be asked to ask
[01:19] <flowbee> how do i get a list of users on my linux box
[01:19] <ubuntucork> viking667:  thors weapons spring to mind to help stop that problem ;-)
[01:19] <nit-wit> wolter, you have the window decoration I suspect I do to  but mine is pretty tweaked.
[01:19] <roger21> hi, how can i get the tasksel tasks from ubuntu-server on my desktop (to easily install lamp, pg samba ...)
[01:20] <wolter> nit-wit, what do you mean?
[01:20] <ubuntucork> flowbee: regular users or all users?
[01:20] <Keegers> OK so the other problem is still there. But I have a new question
[01:20] <smw> roger21, just install it yourself. If you want to know exactly what it downloads, you need to mount the image and read the preseed file.
[01:20] <ubuntucork> roger21:  best bit so you dont ruin your desktop is install ubuntu-server as a VM
[01:20] <flowbee> ubuntucork, i want to see if the user 'mysql' and group 'mysql' exist
[01:20] <smw> roger21, just install what you need
[01:21] <rjonesx1> smw: well, frankly, it has just come down to 4 failed tutorials to do what I want: I have several servers that I would like to auto-mount on start-up. I spend all day working on a large number of web servers, and there currently exists no IDE or IDE plugin for Linux that allows me to live edit (these are dev servers, not production). So, the best solution I can come up with is somehow map folders to SFTP. SSHFS seemed like the best s
[01:21] <rjonesx1> olution, but as mentioned, 4 tutorials down and fail after fail after fail
[01:21] <Keegers> My install sees my "mouse" as a PS2 mouse and not a trackpad. Any thoughts on how to make my mouse into a trackpad?
[01:21] <wolter> and also, pressing the alternative-menu key seems to crash compiz almost every time
[01:21] <ubuntucork> flowbee: you on a desktop or a server?
[01:21] <flowbee> server
[01:21] <roger21> smw, i'm not sure what i need, the tasksel stuff sounded easy
[01:21] <Waqas> so i finally get the firefox working properly but still i need to learn how to use ubuntu
[01:21] <nit-wit> wolter, loaded copiz config gui there is a window decoration plugin that is supposed to keep the window top panel working, you know likw a appp window like the browser
[01:21] <sudokill> Waqas, welcome
[01:21] <smw> rjonesx1, have you tried going to an sftp uri in the filemanager?
[01:22] <Waqas> hey sudokill
[01:22] <LAcan> Waqas; once your NIC and Firefox work, you're set.. google is your friend!
[01:22] <rjonesx1> smw: not yet, ill give that a shot
[01:22] <wolter> nit-wit, oh yes I know what the window decorator is hehe
[01:22] <Waqas> yes Lacan that sounds familiar
[01:22] <sudokill> Waqas, so what u trying to do / set up? I'm guessing ur new
[01:22] <nit-wit> wolter, you want a link to a cube setup
[01:22] <smw> roger21, type "sudo tasksel" in a terminal
[01:22] <LAcan> Waqas, lol sorry... u got a specific problem cuz 'learning ubuntu' is pretty broad!
[01:23] <smw> roger21, I will warn you that running servers takes some CLI work.
[01:23] <smw> roger21, I will also say that most of the time people install the server edition and then install a desktop on top if they absolutely need it.
[01:23] <roger21> smw, no but the tasksel from ubuntu-desktop does not have the server stuff
[01:24] <Waqas> LAcan: thanks for thinking smart i think i need to think smart also, how did you learn ubuntu with google??
[01:24] <ubuntucork> flowbee: "groups | grep "mysql"
[01:24] <smw> roger21, It does when I look...
[01:24] <wolter> nit-wit, why? haha I am just trying to stop this crashes
[01:24] <ubuntucork> flowbee
[01:24] <roger21> hum
[01:24] <flowbee> thx
[01:24] <smw> roger21, I see LAMP server, DNS server, etc
[01:24] <Loshki> !manual | Waqas this is a good way to learn ubuntu:
[01:24] <roger21> smw, do you have lamp, samba-server postgresql-server ?
[01:24] <Trfsrfr> wolter, you lost me. What should I be asking?
[01:24] <LAcan> Waqas, i had very specific reasons to install ubuntu... so i just worked towards accomplishing my goal.. and im still learning.. every day... the people in this channel are a great help
[01:24] <smw> roger21, I see them
[01:25] <roger21> hum
[01:25] <roger21> what did i missed
[01:25] <nit-wit> wolter, I'm going for some thai food dinner time, I think the crashes are apr for course hard to say mine are not that big of a deal.
[01:25] <smw> roger21, no idea
[01:25] <wolter> Trfsrfr, you asked if you could ask a question about sound and dual monitors, right?
[01:25] <roger21> i'll check again
[01:25] <nit-wit> *par
[01:25] <smw> roger21, I have never used tasksel before
[01:25] <Keegers> My install sees my "mouse" as a PS2 mouse and not a trackpad. Any thoughts on how to make my mouse into a trackpad?

[01:25]  * sudokill wants food
[01:25] <Waqas> ok LAcan
[01:25] <billy_> http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/7071/selection006z.png
[01:25] <wolter> nit-wit, ok enjoy your meal then!
[01:25] <Waqas> ok thanks ubottu im reading it
[01:26] <Trfsrfr> wolter, I asked for help with sound and monitors. Did I not ask correctly?
[01:26] <sudokill> Waqas, don't be put off if anything seems hard coming from Windows
[01:26] <ubuntucork> Keegers:   there is something about that on wrww.ubuntu.com, sorry since brain tumour, the memory is not great, todays lesson is never let them drill holes in your skull ;-)
[01:26] <willj> If one wanted to install a package from library downloaded from a website using configure && make, is there a specific location where the packages should reside?
[01:26] <LAcan> id be a total convert to ubuntu if i could only sync my damn blackberry correctly
[01:27] <ubuntucork> Waqas:  what is the problem exactly?
[01:27] <sudokill> willj, no
[01:27] <wolter> Trfsrfr, chill, I just said that you'd be better off asking your specific question right away
[01:27] <Keegers> OK thanks ubuntucork
[01:27] <willj> sudokill, thanks
[01:27] <ubuntucork> LAcan:  there is a method, I googled it recently as i had to use my gmail account to sync with it for calendar and mail purposes :)
[01:27] <Waqas> I resolved all programs by upgrading to a new system-kernel-operating system
[01:27] <Trfsrfr> wolter, I am chilled. Im just a noob here looking for help and learning a ton, albeit slowly.
[01:27] <LAcan> Waqas, if i were to give you one tip: always install stuff from repositories if they are available. will save u a lot of time and headaches
[01:28] <arleslie> love the autoparitioner in ubuntu 11.04 ...... anyway, need help installing grub since its not working (didnt install on the mbr, I installed it on the mbr and now it cant find the configfile [update-grub is not wok
[01:28] <Trfsrfr> and thanks
[01:28] <Waqas> ok thanks
[01:28] <LAcan> ubuntucork, ya i tried it but couldnt compile it properly :(
[01:28] <arleslie> *is not working in the llive CD
[01:28] <peeps[lappy]> does anyone here use tomboy synchronization via ubuntu one?  it is telling me synchronization failed
[01:28] <peeps[lappy]> but gives no other useful info
[01:28] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], ya it works but u have to set it to i believe webdav in the tomboy options
[01:28] <ubuntucork> LAcan no I exported my calendars as ical events to google calendar )
[01:29] <LAcan> ubuntucork, i dont follow...?
[01:29] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, i can't even edit the synchro options, they are greyed out
[01:29] <ubuntucork> my email account is default anyway to my gmail, which allows POP & IMAP
[01:29] <Waqas> Im going to sleep now, bye
[01:29] <LAcan> ubuntucork, i want proper PIM sync for ubuntu.. i can do full backups of the BB
[01:30] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], is ubuntuone configured?
[01:30] <ubuntucork> LAcan: you tried running the windows sync thng in WINE?
[01:30] <LAcan> ubuntucork, thats not a fix! (and yes)
[01:30] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, pretty sure it is,  i synced them initially, don't know what happened.
[01:30] <LAcan> ubuntucork, bb desktop is barely stable in windows let alone thru wine...

[01:31] <Trfsrfr> wolter, im more than happy to check out the chat rule book if you have a link. I surely am not trying to tick anyone off, so if there is a link i'd check it out for sure.
[01:31] <ubuntu564> how can i see all my partitions and how much of the partition is filled
[01:31] <ubuntucork> LAcan: have you tried barry from the repos?
[01:31] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], ok so ubuntu one is working for synchronizing files and such?
[01:31] <arleslie> can anyone help me reinstall grub correctly from the 11.04 x64 live cd?
[01:31] <wolter> Don't worry, you didn't tick anyone off as far as I know, I just said that to you because it will save you time in the future to just ask
[01:31] <billy_> does noone click on my pictures !
[01:31] <billy_> click it !
[01:31] <billy_> http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/7532/selection007.png

[01:31] <sudokill> :)
[01:31] <billy_> lol
[01:32] <FloodBot1> billy_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:32] <ubuntucork> arleslie: too much www...www...wwwork for me i am afraid
[01:32] <billy_> ffs
[01:32] <LAcan> ubuntucork, ya but it only lets u do the full backup... u need something else to do the synching...?
[01:32] <Trfsrfr> cool. thanks.
[01:32] <LAcan> wwwork, lol thats a good term!
[01:32] <sudokill> Bibs, so ur into beastiality too?
[01:33] <arleslie> ubuntucork, ehh
[01:33] <Bibs> sudokill,  of course
[01:33] <sudokill> cool
[01:33] <Trfsrfr> so...
[01:33] <ubuntucork> LAcan: Sorry as I use Google for my mail and calendars on my own domain, perhaps my solution for that would not work for you, hope you find something that wwww...www...works for you :)
[01:33] <sudokill> nothing like a bit of horse on mouse action
[01:33] <LAcan> ubuntucork, ya.. idont trust google... and i actually like Outlook.. i know, shameful
[01:33] <Trfsrfr> how do I get my dual monitor settings to keep? they change to mirror screen after screen saver.
[01:34] <ubuntucork> LAcan:  I hate four letter swear words that being with "wo" and end in "rk" and cannot bring myself to say them :-P
[01:34] <ubuntucork> LAcan: I wont shun you :-) I have to use it in my place of remunerated employment too, and at home use evolution for its famialrity and its power :)
[01:35] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, hrm, i don't know what's going on.  I opened the Ubuntu One control panel from System-> Preferences.  and I can't log in from there.  when i go to the ubuntu one website, i can login just fine.  i am using the exact same credential
[01:35] <LAcan> hey outlook is powerful too.. if you have 8 gigs of ram and SSD lol
[01:35] <Maverick001> hi i've a question: is it ok that my ubuntu logs out automatically at least once a day (11.04). Do you experienced similar with this version or other? thanks!
[01:35] <SpaceBass> Evolution? *shudders*
[01:35] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], lemme take a look at mine
[01:35] <sudokill> Maverick001, by itself?
[01:35] <Trfsrfr> wolter, did I ask that correctly? Ive been asking for 3-4 nights here with no response.
[01:35] <Maverick001> yes
[01:36] <sudokill> well no, thats not ok
[01:36] <wolter> Trfsrfr, yes there you did :)
[01:36] <ubuntucork> Maverick001: I can't help you as I only use 10.04 LTS as I know I have only bugfixes and no new tech for the next 5 years :)
[01:36] <Maverick001> i have read on some forums that it happened with other users too
[01:36] <Trfsrfr> yay!
[01:36] <wolter> Trfsrfr, support is sometimes hard to find here in this channel :S I suffer from the same
[01:36] <ubuntucork> SpaceBass: lol!!
[01:36] <sudokill> Maverick001, unless u mean screensaver password or something
[01:36] <wolter> most of the time nobody can't answer my questions
[01:36] <Maverick001> no scr saver
[01:36] <Trfsrfr> wolter, is there a more suitable place that I should be?
[01:36] <Keegers_Shyia> And my computer crashed again
[01:37] <SpaceBass> ubuntucork, I want to like and use it, but its always so ugly and frankly never works for me w/ exchange ?.
[01:37] <wolter> hm, can't think of any, If I knew I'd be there and not here haha
[01:37] <Keegers_Shyia> This time I was in Terminal and typed "sudo su" hit enter and then it crashed
[01:37] <xangua> !patience | Trfsrfr wolter
[01:37] <Trfsrfr> cool, thanks for the etiquette tips.
[01:37] <Maverick001> i wanted to search for some logs at log manager but i didnt find anything
[01:37] <ubuntucork> SpaceBass:  never use exchange, I use Google[no smart cracks :-P] to manage my email for me on my domain
[01:37] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], ok silly question bt, are you connected to the internet on your ubuntu machine?
[01:37] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, whats wrong
[01:38] <sudokill> i probably cant help
[01:38] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, yes
[01:38] <SpaceBass> ubuntucork, no cracks on google at all - its great. I run my own zimbra server otherwise I'd be on google in a hearbeat
[01:38] <iFrenzy> I've got a problem, I had an hdtv plugged into the hdmi port of my laptop, everything was working fine once I changed a few display settings, I changed it so that only the tv screen was displaying, well i was watching a hulu video full screen and all of the sudden the screen went black and ever since i can get nothing but a black screen when i plug in the hdmi cable on both the laptop screen and tv, I've restarted multiple time
[01:38] <iFrenzy> s with the hdmi cable plugged in and not plugged in to no avail
[01:38] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, like i said, i can log into https://one.ubuntu.com website in my browser, but my Ubuntu One control panel app will not login
[01:38] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], ok so under the devices tab in ubuntu one what u got there...?
[01:38] <peeps[lappy]> devices tab?
[01:39] <Trfsrfr> do bots ask questions?
[01:39] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, is that i unity thing, i'm on classic mode
[01:39] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, whats wrong
[01:39] <ubuntucork> Trfsrfr: only the inquisitive ones :-P
[01:39] <Scunizi> I've got acroread installed so I can open pdf's in that app if I want.. how do I get Firefox to default to that app or open a pdf in a new window?
[01:39] <Trfsrfr> 2 issues
[01:39] <sudokill> cool
[01:40] <Trfsrfr> sound and dual monitor
[01:40] <sudokill> what about sound?
[01:40] <Trfsrfr> none
[01:40] <ubuntucork> Scunizi: Tools->Manage content plug ins
[01:40] <sudokill> checked ur using the right sound card?
[01:40] <sudokill> in sound options
[01:41] <Trfsrfr> I went thru some troubleshooting and did a couple things in terminal
[01:41] <lcasale> Hello, I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.10 running a software RAID 1 array and noticed the hard drive light is on solid all the time.  Is this normal with software raid?  It never blinks
[01:41] <Trfsrfr> very new to linux
[01:41] <sudokill> ok
[01:41] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, alsamixer?
[01:41] <sudokill> check in the sound options if ur using the right soudn card
[01:41] <sudokill> alsamixer shouldnt be muted by default
[01:41] <SpaceBass> lcasale, it could be - hard to say - could also be property of the mobo ? what type of RAID and what does cat /proc/mdstat show
[01:42] <brandenburg> KM0201:  are you active at the moment?
[01:42] <Trfsrfr> nothing is muted
[01:42] <SpaceBass> apparently Drobo shows up as series of 2tb disks in Linux? should I use LVM or is there something more preferable to make them work as one drive?
[01:42] <Scunizi> ubuntucork: checked.. shows "Portable document Format (applicate bla bla) = Adobe reader 9.4" .... but doesn't work..
[01:42] <Trfsrfr> I had sound working at one point, before an update
[01:42] <lcasale> i don't think it's anything on the mobo, also mdstat isn't running anything right now
[01:43] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, where do you see a devices tab?
[01:43] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, does it report the right card or can you select it?
[01:43] <ubuntucork> Scunizi:  is there an option for evince??
[01:43] <SpaceBass> lcasale, not running anything? how did you build the raid? mdadm?
[01:43] <Scunizi> ubuntucork: no..
[01:43] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], in the ubuntu one config under system/administration/ubuntuone
[01:43] <iFrenzy> I've got a problem, I had an hdtv plugged into the hdmi port of my laptop, everything was working fine once I changed a few display settings, I changed it so that only the tv screen was displaying, well i was watching a hulu video full screen and all of the sudden the screen went black and ever since i can get nothing but a black screen when i plug in the hdmi cable on both the laptop screen and tv, I've restarted multiple time
[01:43] <iFrenzy> s with the hdmi cable plugged in and not plugged in to no avail
[01:43] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, are you getting no sound at all? or just in flash?
[01:43] <Trfsrfr> maybe im not looking in the right place
[01:43] <lcasale> i turned off all the services i installed as far as i know, but yes i used mdadm to build the raid
[01:43] <Trfsrfr> no sound at all
[01:43] <janisozaur> I've created a package using checkinstall, but forgot to change some information. how can I edit the information in .deb file?
[01:43] <ubuntucork> Scunizi: try evince I never had any issues with it and it integrates into firefox too :)
[01:44] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, ok, but that app needs me to login and it won't accept my email/password.  the same ones that work fine on the Ubuntu One website
[01:44] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, i can't do anything in that app without logging in
[01:44] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, you could try googling an asound.conf and add a generic config for ur sound card
[01:44] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Sounds like you fried your video card.
[01:44] <sudokill> that makes sure it always uses the right one
[01:44] <ubuntucork> peeps[lappy]: can you check to see is it using http or https and adjust the app one accordingly?
[01:44] <naryfa> what does error "cannot stat" mean?
[01:44] <sudokill> but it shouldnt be needed
[01:44] <SpaceBass> lcasale, if you used mdadm then cat /proc/mdstat will return something
[01:44] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], huh thats weird... mine isnt working either... maybe its down?
[01:45] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, im more newbie than that!
[01:45] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: my laptop screen still works, and the tv will work up until i log in
[01:45] <janisozaur> naryfa, perhaps file does not exist
[01:45] <escott> naryfa, file does not exist
[01:45] <peeps[lappy]> gonna try resetting my password through the app
[01:45] <SpaceBass> lcasale, also, paste bin the results of: mdadm -D /dev/md0
[01:45] <Scunizi> ubuntucork: evince isn't even in the drop down list.. unfortunately I actually have to use acrobat in the browser for work because of forms that have security on them.. I hate it but I can't avoid it.
[01:45] <lcasale> actually i take that back, i'm not sure if mdadm built the array, it was created during the install, right now mdstat is just saying the array is degraded because i took out one of the drives debugging
[01:45] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, do u remmeber what update caused it?
[01:45] <naryfa> janisozaur: escott: thank you
[01:46] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, what is the comand in terminal to view sound components?
[01:46] <sudokill> lsmod | grep snd
[01:46] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], try just "Manage Account" from the account tab, that should take you to the ubuntu website
[01:46] <SpaceBass> lcasale, that would cause the light to stay on
[01:46] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, it was before the upgrade
[01:46] <ubuntucork> lcasale: is it possible in the logs its trying to rebuild the array and hence thats why the light is on?
[01:46] <Trfsrfr> i just did this....
[01:46] <Trfsrfr> where is it?
[01:46] <sudokill> did u upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04?
[01:46] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, dude, there are *no tabs* when you aren't even logged in
[01:47] <ugliefrog> im running dual monitors...is there away to disable second memune thing on the panel on the second monitor
[01:47] <Maverick001> where can i find the shut down, log off, booting logs in log file viewer, so that i can detect the reason why the system logs out randomly ..? thx
[01:47] <Trfsrfr> yes to the latest version...from...meerkat? is that right?
[01:47] <sudokill> yes
[01:47] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Oh. Then I would guess something went wrong with the hdmi configuration.
[01:47] <sudokill> so sound was working in 10.10 but not in 11.04
[01:47] <sudokill> ?
[01:47] <madrid> hy
[01:47] <escott> Maverick001, the logout is likely caused by an Xorg crash. check /var/log/Xorg.0.log but you may not find the cause
[01:47] <ubuntucork> Maverick001: I just cat [file]| grep "string im interested in" > file.txt
[01:48] <Trfsrfr> but before I uprgraded, I updated. and havent had sound since
[01:48] <lcasale> it's not trying to rebuild the array now
[01:48] <lcasale> no*
[01:48] <janisozaur> Maverick001, try /var/log/syslog
[01:48] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: do you know how I would reset the settings with the hdmi
[01:49] <Trfsrfr> yes, in meerkat i changed a value from a 0 to a 1 somewhere along the line and got it working. then i let auto update do its thing, and voila. no sound again.
[01:49] <janisozaur> Maverick001, also, what escott said. you can grep for 'EE' or '!!', this should indicate error
[01:49] <ubuntucork> Trfsrfr: worst case scenario you can always try dpkg-reconfigure -all
[01:49] <Maverick001> thx for the replies i will try that
[01:49] <Levander> It's been awhile since I messed around with Linux. Did it ever get any better about handling NTFS?
[01:49] <lcasale> and looking at the syslog nothing is active
[01:50] <Bibs> Levander,  yes
[01:50] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, the only thing i can do in this app is fail authentication.  http://i.imgur.com/YllIS.png
[01:50] <janisozaur> Maverick001, but beware, as '!!' (without quotes) is also a bash 'command' (it repeates last command)
[01:50] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, i juts reset the password and it still says authentication exceptions
[01:50] <Trfsrfr> ubuntucork, what will that do?
[01:50] <escott> Levander, ntfs-3g is a fuse module that has a few more features than the kernel module
[01:50] <Maverick001> janisozaur: right i just try to read the file first
[01:50] <ubuntucork> Levander:  NTFS is now mounted in userspace and has experimental but very good NTFS write support :-)
[01:50] <LAcan> peeps[lappy], i have no idea bro... on a completely unrelated note.. did u know amazon gives u 5 gigs free?
[01:50] <janisozaur> I've created a package using checkinstall, but forgot to change some information. how can I edit the information in .deb file?
[01:50] <iFrenzy> I've got a problem, I had an hdtv plugged into the hdmi port of my laptop, everything was working fine once I changed a few display settings, I changed it so that only the tv screen was displaying, well i was watching a hulu video full screen and all of the sudden the screen went black and ever since i can get nothing but a black screen when i plug in the hdmi cable on both the laptop screen and tv, I've restarted multiple time
[01:51] <iFrenzy> s with the hdmi cable plugged in and not plugged in to no avail
[01:51] <Levander> I'm reading a page now that says Linux can't create/delete files or grow/shrink files. http://bisqwit.iki.fi/story/howto/ntfs/
[01:51] <Bibs> your reading wrong
[01:51] <LAcan> Levander, THATS WRONG
[01:51] <Bibs> why do you need ntfs anyways?
[01:51] <peeps[lappy]> LAcan, don't care about file storage, i want to sync tomboy notes
[01:51] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, there is a "multimedia systems selector" as a hidden menu available
[01:51] <Levander> Oh wait, there's a big note at the top of that page saying that page is obsolete...
[01:51] <Levander> My bad.
[01:51] <ubuntucork> Trfsrfr: it will reconfigure all your packages on your machine without installing anything :)
[01:52] <escott> Levander, it can shrink/grow ntfs but it marks it as dirty, and windows needs to run its own fsck
[01:52] <Levander> escott, eww - that sounds sloppy
[01:52] <Trfsrfr> robin0800,  hidden? should I be messing with it?
[01:53] <ubuntucork> Levander:  blame the authors and alleged patent holders of the filesystem for the ugliness, not the generous people who help us work with the sloppy thing :-)
[01:53] <Trfsrfr> ubuntucork, ummm...okay. is that a bad thing? I have never had sound since the latest upgrade, so...?
[01:53] <Maverick001> janisozaur: ok i dont know what grep is, but i found a line at the time of crash in the syslog and also red this on the black screen something about cron:
[01:53] <Maverick001> May 26 02:17:01 maverick-A52 CRON[8315]: (root) CMD (   cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
[01:53] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, yes I don't know why its hidden so is software sources
[01:53] <escott> Maverick001, thats nothing, just your hourly automated tasks
[01:53] <sudokill> Maverick001, grep searches for text
[01:54] <Levander> ubuntucork: So, there are still real problems using NTFS with Linux? (I realize it's not Linux's fault, but I got to decide whether to use NTFS or FAT for this external drive that'll be moved around sometimes)
[01:54] <ubuntucork> Maverick001:  grep is a tool to seach through a file looking for matchng strings, in your case poweroff , shutdown or whatever
[01:54] <agitkid> ubuntucork, nit-wit : FYI, in case people come asking again: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[01:54] <Maverick001> but anytime when the system logged out wrote something about cron
[01:54] <escott> Levander, FAT is probably better because it can e used on a mac as well
[01:54] <Maverick001> so how should i use grep
[01:54] <sudokill> however u want
[01:54] <waldirbertazzijr> l
[01:54] <Maverick001> :D
[01:55] <janisozaur> !enter | Maverick001
[01:55] <ubuntucork> Levander: I have used a 500gb portable drive and had to use it with windows machines so chose and formatted it as NTFS because i had to put files >2GB on it(DVD images) and have had zero issues
[01:55] <escott> Maverick001, if it is really cron related it would be on the hour every hour
[01:55] <Levander> escott: Hmmm, NTFS can't even be used on a Mac? That about seals it for FAT... Suprises me FAT can't be read on a Mac...
[01:55] <janisozaur> Maverick001, man grep
[01:55] <Levander> escott: Playstations can't read NTFS either, but can read FAT.
[01:55] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, ubuntucork sudokill somewhere awhile back, i was using the community troubleshooting tips, and i went into terminal and changed a number somewhere, and I got sound. that was in the prior version.
[01:55] <escott> Levander, FAT can be but I think Apple has the same problems with NTFS as everyone else does
[01:55] <ubuntucork> brb need to help "she who must be obeyed :-)"
[01:55] <quint> okay, so im trying to make a startup command that also changes the working directory before executing a process
[01:56] <Levander> escott: Yeah, I'm going FAT for this drive.
[01:56] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, "changed a number somewhere"
[01:56] <Levander> Thanks guys!
[01:56] <janisozaur> Maverick001, basically, you should do something like this: "grep -n EE /var/log/xorg.log" or whatever the file is
[01:56] <Maverick001> thanks
[01:56] <quint> any suggestions?
[01:56] <quint> (id prefer to no make a .sh
[01:56] <iFrenzy> I've got a problem, I had an hdtv plugged into the hdmi port of my laptop, everything was working fine once I changed a few display settings, I changed it so that only the tv screen was displaying, well i was watching a hulu video full screen and all of the sudden the screen went black and ever since i can get nothing but a black screen when i plug in the hdmi cable on both the laptop screen and tv, I've restarted multiple time
[01:56] <janisozaur> Maverick001, and also "grep -n \!\! <xorg_file_path_here>"
[01:57] <iFrenzy> s with the hdmi cable plugged in and not plugged in to no avail
[01:57] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, yes. from a 1 to a 2, or a 0 to a 1. I felt like a programmer, it was awesome.
[01:57] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: what does xrandr say?
[01:57] <janisozaur> how can I edit the information in .deb file?
[01:57] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, lol
[01:57] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, hard to say what it was
[01:57] <brandenburg> anyone know what:   " NetworkManager[596]: nm_setting_802_1x_get_pkcs11_module_path: assertion `NM_IS_SETTING_802_1X (setting)' failed"       tells a person about why a wireless connection does not work?
[01:57] <nit-wit> agitkid, cool I will bookmark it.;)
[01:57] <Trfsrfr> i dont remember where, but I got it from following the troubleshooting guides.
[01:58] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, asoundrc  pcm card0?
[01:58] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: are you asking what it says about the hdmi port?
[01:58] <Trfsrfr> and I have been doing that recently here as well, but I have been without sound for 6 weeks.
[01:58] <Bane99> guys how do i use wine?
[01:58] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: yes
[01:58] <fsync> I make some software that people on Ubuntu use.  I'm extremely poor, does anyone have budget to send me an install CD, or, even better, get me on the list of people who are worth sending CDs to as they become available? (I'm on dial-up, otherwise I'd just download it.)
[01:58] <Bane99> for installing a game
[01:58] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, does pcm.card0 ring any bells?
[01:58] <Bane99> :p
[01:58] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, i dont know. tell me how I can answer that question for you.
[01:59] <Trfsrfr> maybe, I changed a number on the end of a command, possibly like that
[01:59] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: it says disconnected because when I plug it in I get nothing
[01:59] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: like both screens go black
[02:00] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, since though, i have gone back to on-board sound, then swithced again, then back, etc...now I am back to trying to make the 5.1 card be the sound card. I turned of the on-board in bios.
[02:01] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, do neither of them work?
[02:01] <Trfsrfr> nothing works
[02:01] <sudokill> aw
[02:01] <sudokill> i have no idea what update caused it
[02:01] <Trfsrfr> but it did at one time
[02:01] <sudokill> or what number u changed
[02:01] <sudokill> i have no idea
[02:02] <Maverick001> guys im very lame but do i have to login as root or put something else(the destination file is correct): grep: /var/log/xorg.0.log: No such file or directory
[02:02] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: look in home for .xprofile is it there?
[02:02] <Trfsrfr> what was that pcm0 thing you mentioned?
[02:02] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, in alsamixer f6 allows you to select a sound card
[02:02] <escott> Maverick001, grep "pattern" /from/file suggested pattern was "EE"
[02:02] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: where would I find that
[02:02] <Trfsrfr> robin0800,  let me check that.
[02:02] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, try this: in ur home directory create an empty file called .asoundrc
[02:02] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Look in your home folder for a file called .xprofile
[02:02] <escott> Maverick001, and a capital X
[02:02] <Bane99> where do we determine CD ROM directories in linux
[02:02] <Bane99> ?
[02:03] <rationalOgre> if you cant see dot files hit CTRL+H and they will appear
[02:03] <robin0800> Bane99, media
[02:03] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, or do u already have one?
[02:03] <escott> Bane99, your CD will usually be mounted (files made accessible) in /media/cdrom or /media/dvd
[02:03] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: no I have an .xsession-errors and .xsession-errors.old
[02:03] <Bane99> i dont even know where to see that
[02:03] <Bane99> it's a blu-ray drive
[02:04] <Bane99> i also have a DVD-RW drive
[02:04] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, let me check
[02:04] <rationalOgre> open the .xsession-errors with gedit and see what it says
[02:04] <rationalOgre> See if it mentions the HDMI screen
[02:04] <Bane99> so do i run everything from terminal?
[02:04] <acuarium> Hi, anyone here can help me with a new RAID0 installation?
[02:04] <robin0800> Bane99, its a folder in the filesystem
[02:04] <acuarium> I have a problem with grub
[02:04] <flowbee> i'm connecting to a vpn server that seems to affect my routes.  you can see here:  https://gist.github.com/990377 ... my question is; what should i do after this happens so that *only* traffic from port 80 will be sent through the assigned routes?
[02:04] <escott> Bane99, you should be able to access them in the file manager. look for the cd/dvd on the left hand side with the disks
[02:04] <Maverick001> it says the following: 15:	(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[02:04] <Maverick001> 58:[ 15461.702] (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[02:05] <Maverick001> 107:[ 15461.753] (EE) Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exist, 0)
[02:05] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, my home directory? with my name?
[02:05] <sudokill> Trfsrfr yes
[02:05] <Trfsrfr> with the desktop, documents folder?
[02:05] <sudokill> yes
[02:05] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: a lot of stuff, but nothing that appears to pertain to graphics
[02:05] <Trfsrfr> no i do not have that file or folder
[02:05] <Bane99> so when i run wine
[02:05] <Bane99> go to the terminal
[02:05] <Bane99> :?
[02:06] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, right click and create new empty file and call it .asoundrc (remember the dot)
[02:06] <escott> Bane99, wine thats a whole different thing. wine you can configure to give fake letters to the drives so e: can point to /dev/cdrom or the like
[02:06] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, if alsamixer didn't find your sound card your in trouble
[02:06] <Trfsrfr> okay
[02:07] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, i havent located where to locate it yet
[02:07] <acuarium> anyone has ubuntu running on a RAID0 array?
[02:07] <Trfsrfr> lol
[02:07] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, now paste this into it- (from the raw paste data) http://pastebin.com/6FmrwL4B
[02:07] <Maverick001> does this error "fglrx" cause the logs out? : 107:[    14.376] (EE) Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exist, 0)
[02:07] <Maverick001> what the heck is it?
[02:07] <Trfsrfr> i feel like a 6 year old
[02:07] <escott> Maverick001, that just means you aren't running the ATI drivers
[02:07] <Stormx2> Maverick001, you're trying to load a graphics driver that doesn't exist
[02:08] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, try reboot and see if it works that just uses default card
[02:08] <ubuntucork> night night boys and girls, its bed time here in the Peoples Republic of Cork.
[02:08] <sudokill> if it dont work just delete that .asound.conf u made
[02:08] <Maverick001> goddamn that should be the problem, windows freezed with all the drivers
[02:08] <ubuntucork> www.peoplesreupublicofcork.com :-)
[02:08] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: any other ideas?
[02:08] <acuarium> please!
[02:09] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, should I check alsamixer f6 like robin0800 suggested first?
[02:09] <escott> iFrenzy, you could check that you dont have anything unusual in /etc/X11
[02:09] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Sorry, I'm all out. This is unfortunately beyond my ken.
[02:09] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, u can, what do u see when u run alsamixer?
[02:09] <Bane99> ok escott
[02:09] <Bane99> sigh
[02:09] <nit-wit> ubuntulo1, also known as http://5z8.info/-OPEN-WEBCAM---START-RECORD--_m3o1ff_-php-deactivate_phishing_filter-48-
[02:09] <Bane99> i dont know how to do these command things
[02:10] <kz-man> how can i set emerald as the window decorator?, i clicked it in the fusion icon but nothing happens
[02:10] <iFrenzy> escott: what should i be looking for?
[02:10] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, robin0800 has suggested that when I run alsamixer and press f6 i can choose my coundcard
[02:10] <escott> Bane99, it should be in the wine config gui whatever that is
[02:10] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, u can but it wont save unless u run a command
[02:10] <escott> iFrenzy, what kind of video card do you have?
[02:10] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, I havent run it yet...still looking for it
[02:10] <rww> !emerald | kz-man
[02:11] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, what does it say under "card" when u first run alsamixer
[02:11] <iFrenzy> escott: its an internal intel
[02:11] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, you run alsamixer in terminel
[02:11] <TurkuSama> is there a way to load mint inside of windows like wubi?
[02:11] <rww> !mintsupport | TurkuSama
[02:11] <TurkuSama> thanks
[02:11] <Trfsrfr> oh thats cool
[02:11] <iFrenzy> escott: I've already ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video-intel
[02:11] <Trfsrfr> I have 3 options
[02:12] <Trfsrfr> 0 hda ati hdmi
[02:12] <Trfsrfr> 1 mpu-401 uart
[02:12] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, did u do the .asoundrc?
[02:12] <Trfsrfr> 2 via 8237
[02:12] <Trfsrfr> yes
[02:12] <Jordan_U> !details | acuarium
[02:12] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, reboot let me know if sound works
[02:13] <escott> iFrenzy, make sure you don't have an Xorg.conf in /etc/x11 thats the only real suggestion i can give
[02:13] <Trfsrfr> ok
[02:13] <iFrenzy> escott: I have an xorg.conf.failsafe in /etc/X11
[02:13] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: What did you use to make it so your laptop screen shuts off when you plug in the HDMI?
[02:13] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, i might be awhile, my pc hangs on start screen.
[02:13] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I installed ubuntu 11.04 on a raid0 array, the installation finished without problems, but after rebooting I get grub rescue and a message saying file not found
[02:14] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: the display settings, I just set the laptop monitor to off
[02:14] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I guess grub is correctly installed in the MBR, but it doesn't find the /boot partition
[02:14] <escott> iFrenzy, thats unusual, but since its failsafe i wouldn't worry
[02:14] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Mdraid or FakeRAID?
[02:14] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, u might be better to reinstall 11.04
[02:14] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Fake Raid (mdadm)
[02:14] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, but try it
[02:14] <ryan_> whats up everyone
[02:14] <escott> acuarium, i think you need a /boot that is not raid0. i don't think grub supports stripping the /boot partition
[02:15] <sudokill> ryan_, yo dawg
[02:15] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, okay, let me restart and see what happens. Thanks. this has taken up to an hour before, so if youre still on, i'll let you know.
[02:15] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: that's the reason I'm trying to figure out how to just reset the dual display settings so I'll atleast have my laptop screen when I plug in the hdmi so maybe I can tweak the settings and make it work
[02:15] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: have kinda a crazy idea
[02:15] <Trfsrfr> thanks to all, brb
[02:15] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, an hour to reboot?
[02:15] <Maverick001> how can i open cron?
[02:15] <rationalOgre> Open up the display settings
[02:15] <Trfsrfr> yeah sometimes more
[02:15] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, what? reinstall lol
[02:15] <Jordan_U> escott: Grub does support striping for /boot/, but it shouldn't be needed as the BIOS should be presenting it as a single drive.
[02:15] <acuarium> escott: As far as I saw grub2 should handle it
[02:15] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: and then? lol
[02:15] <rationalOgre> Position your cursor over the ON thing, then plug in the hdmi cable and click your mouse
[02:16] <acuarium> Jordan_U: BIOS is not presenting it as a RAID array
[02:16] <Trfsrfr> okay, let me see what happens here first. ill be back, hopefully sooner than later.
[02:16] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Can you be on IRC and at the grub rescue shell at the same time (from a different computer)?
[02:16] <acuarium> yep
[02:16] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Then it's not FakeRAID.
[02:16] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: lol I suppose I could try that, if it doesn't work it will probably take me a minute to get back in here
[02:16] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: ok
[02:16] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I was on live usb, rebooting
[02:16] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, try rebooting, if sound still dont work just delete the asoundrc file u made
[02:16] <ryan_> can some1 point to a channel where I can get some general help with some ubuntu errors with my mouse? I'm new to ubuntu / linux
[02:16] <acuarium> Jordan_U: so, sorry I didn't understand the difference :(
[02:17] <sudokill> dno if ill be on in an hour
[02:17] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I am in grub rescue
[02:17] <DrManhattan> v0l is my bitch!!!!
[02:17] <acuarium> I see: error: fd0 read error.
[02:17] <acuarium> error: file not found.
[02:17] <acuarium> and the prompt
[02:17] <DrManhattan> v0l is my bitch!!!!
[02:17] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, im gonna as soon as I can kill alsamixer, but since ive never seen it b4...
[02:17] <arleslie> Can anyone recommend me a good file recovery tool for Ubuntu? ... Ubuntu whipped one of my drives when I told it to install next to my other OS.
[02:18] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, press escape
[02:18] <quint> my metacity locks up from time to time when i copy files
[02:18] <Trfsrfr> There is still a process running in this terminal. Closing the terminal will kill it.
[02:18] <Jordan_U> acuarium: What is the output of "ls" at the rescue shell?
[02:18] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, just kill it
[02:18] <Trfsrfr> oh207, nice. thanks!
[02:18] <Bane99> sigh
[02:19] <Trfsrfr> ok, im rebooting.
[02:19] <Bane99> how do i navigate to the media directory from terminal
[02:19] <Bane99> -.-
[02:19] <Jordan_U> !language | DrManhattan
[02:19] <arand> Bane99: use "cd"
[02:19] <Bane99> yes?
[02:19] <DrManhattan> Sorry, it was my roomate
[02:19] <DrManhattan> I just threw him out
[02:19] <Bane99> cd /media doesn't work
[02:19] <Jordan_U> DrManhattan: Make sure your roomate doesn't do it again.
[02:20] <arand> Bane99: In what way does it not happen?
[02:20] <acuarium> Jordan_U: (md/0) (md/0,msdos4) (md/0,msdos3) (md/0,msdos2) (md/0,msdos1) (hd0) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd1,msdos1) (fd0)
[02:20] <Bane99> says directory doesn't exist
[02:20] <Bane99> no such file or directory
[02:20] <Jordan_U> acuarium: At least it is seeing the array properly. I assume you don't actually have a floppy drive?
[02:21] <acuarium> Jordan_U: you assume correctly
[02:21] <arand> Bane99: "ls /" is it not there?
[02:21] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I have one USB with live usb desktop and une USB with live usb alternate
[02:21] <hiexpo> Bane99, what is media is it a external hard drive

[02:22] <acuarium> prefix=(md/0)/grub
[02:22] <Bane99> it's my BR Drive
[02:22] <Bane99> cd drive
[02:22] <robin0800> Bane99, its a filesystem folder

[02:23] <Bane99> yes i'm trying to navigate to it
[02:23] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, no joy?
[02:23] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, that was fast im back. and it looks like my dual monitor problem may be fixed.
[02:23] <airtonix> thunderbird in maverick : Incoming server already exists.  [02:23] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Run "ls $prefix/". Do you see a lot of *.mod files?
[02:23] <Trfsrfr> but no sound
[02:23] <Trfsrfr> no bongos
[02:24] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, sometimes the startup sound is buggered anyway try something else
[02:24] <acuarium> Jordan_U: error: file not found.
[02:24] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Is that the only error?
[02:24] <acuarium> Jordan_U: yes
[02:25] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, no sound from musicplayer

[02:25] <Bane99> i'm currently at xxx@xxx-Desktop:/media$
[02:25] <sudokill> then reboot
[02:25] <hiexpo> Bane99, maybe cd /cdrom
[02:25] <Bane99> in the terminal
[02:25] <hiexpo> yes
[02:25] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I see nothing, no error, nothing
[02:26] <Bane99> maybe i should just extract the files in windows, go back to linux
[02:26] <Bane99> and copy files over
[02:26] <Bane99> -.-
[02:26] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, i think that file went away...
[02:26] <sudokill> it shouldnt
[02:26] <Trfsrfr> i dont see it
[02:26] <Jordan_U> acuarium: What filesystem is on (md/0)?
[02:26] <Bane99> wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\setup.exe"
[02:26] <Bane99> is what i get
[02:26] <Bane99> sigh
[02:27] <hiexpo> Bane99, ok it is your blue ray device and you are in linux right now ?
[02:27] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, it will be hidden because of the dot

[02:27] <nimbiotics> hello. Im trying to install the pulseaudio-equalizer ppa, but i have idea how to do it. I cannot find the link of the form ppa:/location, I have (http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/webupd8?dist=natty). Please help. TIUA!
[02:27] <hiexpo> Trfsrfr, ls -la
[02:27] <Trfsrfr> okay its there. Thank you!!!
[02:27] <acuarium> Jordan_U: /boot / /home and finally swap (all of them ext4, except swap, obviously)
[02:28] <sudokill> Trfsrfr, it's in home just do it from nautilus (the file manager)
[02:28] <Bane99> wine has the /media under D:\
[02:28] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: that didn't work, but I did figure out something, its a problem with the settings on that particular tv because I just hooked it up to another tv in my house and that one works fine
[02:28] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: so is there a way to wipe out the saved settings for displays

[02:28] <robin0800> nimbiotics, thats not a ppa they start deb
[02:29] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: I asked over in #gnome and nobody has responded as yet
[02:29] <Trfsrfr> nautilus huh...whats that?
[02:29] <sudokill> the window where u see all the files
[02:29] <kermit> is it possible to get a high speed hard disk light in X?
[02:29] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Did you check /etc/X11 to see if there's a xorg.conf in there?
[02:29] <Bane99> woohoo
[02:29] <Bane99> got it
[02:29] <Bane99> haha
[02:29] <Bane99> typed some random stuff in
[02:29] <Bane99> haha
[02:29] <FloodBot1> Bane99: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:29] <iFrenzy> rationalOge: yes there wasn't one
[02:29] <Trfsrfr> .nautilus is empty
[02:29] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Hrm.
[02:29] <Bane99> hmm that's just how i type in IRC.... gotta stop doing that
[02:29] <nimbiotics> robin0800: I understand, but I cannot find the link to the PPA at http://linuxers.org/howto/how-install-software-ubuntu-ppa
[02:30] <sudokill> I got to go
[02:30] <nimbiotics> robin0800: sry, http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/pm/pulseaudio-equalizer
[02:30] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Then the gnome monitor preferences applet has to have a special place to save it's settings
[02:30] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Do you see any files if you ls other devices?
[02:30] <Maverick001> I determined that why my system logs out randomly. the Jockey.log file clearly shows that the system tries to "querying driver db" and there is "no corresponding handler available", its going on for a while then its "DEBUG: Shutting down". Althought there is something about cron in an other log file at that time. My question is that how can i disable that the system won't try to locate the driver for my builtin ati card which cau
[02:30] <Trfsrfr> sudokill, cool dude! thanks so much for your time!
[02:30] <Maverick001> ses the auto log out problem. ?
[02:31] <acuarium> Jordan_U: what do you mean with other devices?
[02:31] <Trfsrfr> robin0800 what do you think?
[02:31] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: What ubuntu are you on?
[02:31] <Verseer> i could use some help.  i updated my system and now my wired/wireless connections do not work.
[02:31] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: ubuntu 11.04 with gnome 3
[02:32] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: look in ~/.gnome3 and see if you can find anything related to display or monitor
[02:32] <Trfsrfr> where is pastebin?
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> !paste
[02:33] <escott> iFrenzy, you might test to see if this happens for any other user. you could create a throwaway account and try the same there. if nothing bad happens then it might be in your .* files otherwise it must be /etc
[02:33] <robin0800> nimbiotics, click webud8 there are three terminal commanda on that page to install the ppa
[02:34] <nimbiotics> robin0800: OK, THX
[02:34] <iFrenzy> escott: worth a shot
[02:34] <Verseer> anyone else on 10.10 have network problems after latest updates?
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: broadcom wireless by any chance?
[02:35] <rationalOgre> Verseer: My 10.10 box seems to be fine. Wireless but not broadcom
[02:35] <Verseer> realtek wired and my wireless also, its both connections
[02:35] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, try all soundcards in alsa mixer adjust sliders etc
[02:36] <Trfsrfr> ok
[02:37] <acuarium> Jordan_U: which are other devices?
[02:37] <rationalOgre> Verserr: What's the output of ifconfig?
[02:38] <Verseer> rationalOgre: it wasnt assigning an IP, so i changed it to static and now it shows an IP for eth0.  before that it also had an eth0:avahi
[02:38] <Jordan_U> acuarium: I just realized that you partitioned your raid array rather than making an array of of partitions. This is odd, and is not recommended.
[02:39] <acuarium> Jordan_U: right, I partitioned my raid, should I make equal partitions on each hard disk and make a raid0 of each pair of partitions?
[02:39] <Loaf> has anyone had success connection open-iscsi (ubuntu server installer) to a solaris COMSTAR iscsi host? My ESXi and windows initators see the iscsi target fine but not ubuntu. It wont even discovery
[02:40] <rationalOgre> Verseer: You sure it's not an issue with your router?
[02:40] <escott> acuarium, you might also want to consider having /boot not be on the raid array. dedicate a gig to it and forget all these issues
[02:40] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Yes, or a common thing is to use LVM on top of the raid array. Why do have multiple partitions?
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: do you see lights on the router and NIC to show traffic?
[02:40] <Verseer> rationalOgre: my router works fine for laptop and xbox.  i powercycled router and modem to be sure also
[02:41] <rationalOgre> Ok, just covering bases
[02:41] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, I have nothing, zero, nada...
[02:41] <Jordan_U> acuarium: But the main thing is that an array should not be formed from "raw" disks as then there is no place to embed grub, which leaves me wondering how exactly you managed to get it installed in this configuration.
[02:41] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Nothing special
[02:41] <Verseer> actionparsnip there is no light on router for the port for my pc.  on the end the cable is connected it slowly flashes a yellow light
[02:41] <Jordan_U> acuarium: So why not have only one partition?
[02:41] <Verseer> actionparnsip the PC end i mean
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: thats cool. Light means the link is good, tried a different port?
[02:42] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: do you know the screename of the other guy that was helping me?
[02:42] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I made the raid array, and I had one partition that can't be resized, so I created the partitions with fdisk, and after that in the installation told what to mount on each one
[02:42] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: escott
[02:42] <iFrenzy> escott: it works fine under other user
[02:42] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Installed grub in the MBR and the installation process finished without issues
[02:43] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: That means the setting is in one of your . files
[02:43] <escott> iFrenzy, since i cant find it anywhere im going to guess it is in gconf you might look in there
[02:43] <Verseer> actionparsnip i tried a different port on my router, but only have 1 ethernet on pc
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> iFrenzy: may be because of gnome2 settings in gnome3
[02:43] <flowbee> i'm getting: Thu May 26 05:41:03 2011 Note: Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun: No such file or directory (errno=2)  when i try to connect to openvpn server.  from 10.04 server.
[02:43] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Why couldn't you resize the partition? Why did you have a partition table on the array to start with?
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: good enough
[02:43] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, if alsa sees nothing then your in trouble because all sound bits are hung on top of that lets see if I can find you a link
[02:43] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, thank you, that would be awesome.
[02:44] <mordof> how do i refresh the applet listings for gnome-panel without rebooting?
[02:44] <Verseer> actionparsnip ok i looked again and there is no blinking anymoer on pc end
[02:44] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, but also did see 3 things.
[02:44] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I don't know why, but after creating the array with raw disks it created one single partition
[02:44] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Debian installer allows pretty much any sane configuration of partitions, which means that if there is something you're not able to accomplish within Debian installer it's probably not sane.
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: got a different cable to test if it is good?
[02:44] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I get it
[02:44] <iFrenzy> escott: what would i be looking for in .gonf
[02:44] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Found it
[02:44] <trism> mordof: logging out/back in is the easiest way
[02:45] <Sup819> is there a browser that supports ActiveX for ubuntu
[02:45] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: where?
[02:45] <Verseer> actionparsnip ya got the same thing with different cable
[02:45] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[02:45] <wolter> how can I roll back to use compiz 0.8?
[02:45] <mordof> trism: there's no command to update the list :\ it'll be inconvenient to logout and back in at the moment
[02:45] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I can start the installer again now, would you guide me with the partition/raid part?
[02:45] <rationalOgre> ~/.gconf/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/xrandr
[02:45] <wolter> (can I in Natty?(
[02:45] <wolter> )
[02:45] <escott> iFrenzy, use gconf-editor. otherwise just be looking for anything that might be related to xrandr
[02:45] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Sure. I assume you are using the alternate install CD?
[02:45] <Verseer> actionparsnip the strange thing is that both wireless and wired wont work
[02:45] <acuarium> Jordan_U: If I can have /home in a separate partition I would prefer it, but not mandatory
[02:46] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, thanks. can you tell me how to access what someone put in pastebin?
[02:46] <acuarium> Jordan_U: yes, I have both, alternate and desktop
[02:46] <Verseer> actionparsnip but my wireless can see the networks
[02:46] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Booting with alternate
[02:46] <Verseer> actionparsnip and my wired just says 'device not managed' after i chagned it to static, before that it say 'cable disconnected'
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: is it ok as another user
[02:46] <Doonz> hey guys. i have 3 servers. 2 of the three can access a website the other cannot. they all go through the same gateway and have the same dns server. from the one machine that cannot ping the website using its url i can ping the ip address and it will work.. any ideas?
[02:47] <Verseer> actionparsnip ill give that a try now
[02:47] <ActionParsnip> Doonz: same DNS servers defined in /etc/resolv.conf
[02:47] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Then yes, reboot with the alternate install CD, wipe the drive to start out with, and then I'll help walk you through setting up the RAID.
[02:47] <ActionParsnip> Doonz: similar output in: route
[02:47] <aeon-ltd> Doonz: same os and firewall rules? (cloned machines)?
[02:47] <robin0800> Trfsrfr, click the link hilight text and right click choose copy paste into a new file on desktop
[02:48] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: I have no gnome settings, I have gnome-screensaver, gnome-session, gnome-sound-recorder, and gnome-terminal
[02:48] <peth> i recently gave the opensource radeon drivers another try but was forced to go back to the proprietary ones. after re-installing them, terminal flashes/visual bell in xterm now take about a whole second. i can literally see the lines turn white one by one. any idea what may be the cause?
[02:48] <SkrappJaw> how is everyone in the USA? Staying out of the storms?
[02:49] <Verseer> actionparsnip won't work under a different user either
[02:49]  * SkrappJaw is in Ohio.
[02:49] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Look under gnome-session for something about xrandr
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: ok so we know its the app, not settings
[02:49] <acuarium> Jordan_U: done, wiped all config, now I have 2 raw disks
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> iFrenzy: the ~/.g* folders hold the settings
[02:50] <olvap> hi, i downloading a .bin file, where do i have to save it to run it in the console?
[02:50] <iFrenzy> ActionParship: You mean like .gconf?
[02:51] <robin0800> olvap, anywhere just cd to it
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> iFrenzy: exactly
[02:51] <nit-wit> olvap, what is the file did you look in the repos first.
[02:51] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Just open a terminal and type gconf-editor
[02:51] <Trfsrfr> robin0800,  more thanks. when sudokill told me to copy and paste into the .asoundrc file, I just copied his link and pasted it. not the data from the pastebin file. im a dork i know. im gonna reboot again and see if it changes anything.
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> iFrenzy: ou do realize gnome3 isn't supported here
[02:51] <rationalOgre> then edit>find xrandr
[02:52] <iFrenzy> ActionParship: hadn't thought about it
[02:52] <olvap> nit-wit: the file is the sdk tool for extjs 4,
[02:53] <evan1123> is anyone having trouble with folding at home on natty?
[02:53] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: it found 2 one is in /schemas/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/settings-manager-plugins and the other is in /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/settings-manager-plugins
[02:53] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Create a partition table on both disks with a single partition taking up all the available space.
[02:54] <olvap> robin0800: but i like to call it from anywhere, so i could wirte sencha (bin file) if a need
[02:54] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Done, each disk has one primary partition taking up all the available space
[02:54] <acuarium> Jordan_U: They have a mount point ...
[02:54] <olvap> there is no a folder to that like /usr/bin or something
[02:55] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Then they've changed how they store the settings...
[02:55] <Jordan_U> acuarium: For the option of partition type rather than "ext4" or some other filesystem choose raid member (if I'm remembering the interface correctly).
[02:55] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Did it again, selecting to not mounting it
[02:55] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: well I've found the file i suppose so what do i do with it?
[02:56] <acuarium> Jordan_U: physical volume for raid?
[02:56] <robin0800> olvap, usually whe you download it goes to Downloads so you just cd /Downloads
[02:56] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: You found the one that sets the monitor stuff?
[02:56] <rationalOgre> If so, rename it.
[02:56] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: Idk give me a second I'm trying to find it in the file manager
[02:57] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Done, selected physical volume for raid
[02:57] <acuarium> Jordan_U: non of them has the bootable flag
[02:57] <rationalOgre> iFrenzy: Faster to go to it in the terminal but that may just be for weird people like me.
[02:57] <Jordan_U> acuarium: The boot flag is a windows thing.
[02:57] <iFrenzy> lol
[02:57] <acuarium> Jordan_U: :) ok sorry
[02:57] <rationalOgre> Just rename the file to something else and reboot
[02:58] <rationalOgre> the simple-greeter one probably isn't it but it might be.
[02:58] <Jordan_U> acuarium: See if you can figure out how to create a single array from those two partitions on your own. If not I'll fire up a VM so I can look at the interface myself.
[02:58] <Synthbread> Butt terdz
[02:59] <rww> Synthbread: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu technical support only, thanks :)
[02:59] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I created a md software raid with two partitions
[02:59] <evan1123> anyone have trouble with folding at home on natty?
[02:59] <acuarium> Jordan_U: with the two partitions, sorry
[02:59] <Jordan_U> acuarium: :)
[02:59] <Synthbread> Poo balls
[02:59] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Now it shows a raid device, with one partition ext4 and 512.0 B unusable
[03:00] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Sounds good. Use that as '/' and I think you can figure out the rest from there.
[03:00] <acuarium> what about swap?
[03:00] <acuarium> and boot?
[03:01] <acuarium> Jordan_U: I guess I made a stupid question about /boot if I teel it to be / it will contain /boot as well
[03:01] <moondog> Unity is actually not too bad once you get used to it
[03:01] <acuarium> Jordan_U: but I am not reserving swap space this way
[03:03] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Sorry, I forgot about swap. Do you want your swap to be on RAID?
[03:03] <acuarium> Jordan_U: it doesn't matter
[03:03] <jonf> hi all, wonder if someone can help me; I did an upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 server using do-release-upgrade, and the system boots and works, but I dont get a getty on my default virtual console. It seems to work ok if I cat stuff to it though..
[03:04] <pksadiq> i get "device descriptor read/64, error 18" when inserting my usb pen drive and parted says "Error: opening /dev/sda: No medium found". What to do next?
[03:05] <eiriksvin> how do I check to see if theres something wrong with my mouse?
[03:06] <nit-wit> eiriksvin, try it on another computer.
[03:06] <iFrenzy> rationalOgre: would it be safe to delete the entire .gonf folder and replace it with the one from /etc
[03:06] <eiriksvin> the camera jumps around while clicking/holding/letting go in WoW
[03:06] <escott> iFrenzy, no need to replace it
[03:07] <zachs> Hi guys!
[03:07] <iFrenzy> escott: so just delete it and restart?
[03:07] <eiriksvin> theres no way to test it in Ubuntu?
[03:07] <atlus> on my software center a program called blender is a much older version than what is on their website. how do i update the software center to see if there is a new version availible for install
[03:07] <bonanzaman> test
[03:07] <escott> iFrenzy, sure... you will lose any customization you made to your gnome apps but you can just removeit
[03:07] <eiriksvin> bonanzaman test good
[03:08] <iFrenzy> escott: like my favorites programs and stuff?
[03:08] <Logan_> !test | bonanzaman
[03:08] <bonanzaman> eiriksvin: thanks
[03:08] <atlus> on my software center a program called blender is a much older version than what is on their website. how do i update the software center to see if there is a new version availible for install???
[03:08] <eiriksvin> bonanzaman np  :D
[03:08] <escott> iFrenzy, just whatever customizations are a in it. like background selection, theme selection, font selection etc
[03:09] <iFrenzy> well i can easily change that back i'll give it a go
[03:09] <acuarium> Jordan_U: should I delete the partition and create two, one for / and one for swap?
[03:09] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Or I need to create a smaller raid?
[03:09] <Psydoll> Can someone please reccomend a good NAS?
[03:10] <carnage1> use yur ipod as swap
[03:11] <atlus> how do you update the software in software center?
[03:11] <zachs> Anyone know how to run a 32 bit program on 64 bit Ubuntu?
[03:11] <Verseer> actionparsnip any other ideas?
[03:11] <IdleOne> zachs: install ia32-libs
[03:11] <ActionParsnip> Verseer: thats all I got
[03:12] <IdleOne> atlus: use the update manager, if there are any updates it will offer to install them
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: install openssh-server and you will get an SFTP server you can put files on
[03:13] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Go back to the inital stage of creating the single large partition on each drive and instead create two (on each drive, for a total of 4), one for the array that will contain '/' and another small one for the array that will contain swap.
[03:13] <ActionParsnip> zachs: why ask on the questions forum, then ask in the support channel?
[03:13] <acuarium> Jordan_U: So I will make two raid0 arrays?
[03:13] <pksadiq> Zachs, may be ndiswrapper
[03:14] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: what is the capacity of that SFTP server
[03:14] <zachs> ActionParsnip: well I just want to get a quicker answer?
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: as much space as your drives have
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> zachs: asking here will get the quickest answer. I also answered it ;)
[03:14] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Sorry, I'm doing a lot of things at once right now.
[03:15] <jrmcm> using the find command with the -exec what is the syntax if i want to copy all of the files i find to a single folder?
[03:15] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: Does this feature show it all as individual drives or does it appear as one big drive, if indivdual can it be made to appear as one large drive?
[03:15] <acuarium> Jordan_U: no problem, I was just asking if I will create a swap array as well?
[03:16] <zachs> IdleOne: I have installed ia32-libs. But specifically what do I need to do say if I want to install a program labeled cups.deb which is 32 bit and my ubuntu is 64bit?
[03:16] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: it will appear just as your filesystem does now, with access defined using the UNIX permissions in place, usually users get dropped in their $HOME folders
[03:16] <escott> zachs, you should install the 64bit version of cups
[03:16] <Trfsrfr> robin0800, nothing
[03:16] <IdleOne> zachs: install cups from the repository (software center)
[03:17] <Psydoll> i see
[03:17] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: you can control data storage by enforcing disk quotas
[03:17] <zachs> I renamed my printer driver which had a long filename to cups so its not actaully the program cups
[03:17] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: Will I have to use the command line to accesss files? ie ls /media and then finding things manually or does it have a gui?
[03:18] <SpaceBass> apparently Drobo shows up as series of 2tb disks in Linux? should I use LVM or is there something more preferable to make them work as one drive?
[03:18] <Psydoll> SpaceBass: yes it does but no usb 3.0
[03:18] <yell0w> does anyone know how to increase clip board buffer size in lucid ?
[03:18] <SpaceBass> Psydoll, what do you mean?
[03:19] <hiexpo> hola all
[03:19] <dr_Willis> mc is a guiish filemanager for the terminal
[03:19] <zachs> actionparsnip: Thanks
[03:19] <jonf> hi all, wonder if someone can help me; I did an upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 server using do-release-upgrade, and the system boots and works, but I dont get a getty on my default virtual console. It seems to work fine if I cat stuff to and from tty0 though.
[03:19] <jrmcm> (jrmcm) using the find command with the -exec what is the syntax if i want to copy all of the files i find to a single folder?
[03:19] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: What I mean is are the files in OpenSSH got icons or long lines of text like you see on the command line.
[03:20] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: Im very interested in this form of storage
[03:20] <tohodson> WINDOW NEW
[03:20] <moondog> or not
[03:20] <terran> Hi !
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: you can mount the sshfs in nautilus and it will act like a local folder
[03:21] <hiexpo> hey is there a way to install python 2.5 without trashing other versions of python installed
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: just like when you mount anything
[03:21] <dr_Willis> sshfs is very very handy
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: you can access it over WAN too as it uses the security in SSH
[03:22] <Psydoll> ActionParsnip: What im looking for is storage solution that i can access locally via usb 3.0, my own network or anywhere in the world.
[03:23] <dr_Willis> hiexpo:  seen that asked at the askubuntu web site. look there yet?
[03:23] <SpaceBass> Psydoll, was your reply to me earlier about my drobo question?
[03:23] <Psydoll> yes
[03:23] <Psydoll> SpaceBass: ALso the capacity is alot more than 2tb
[03:23] <Qiller> hi, can i use iptables using "Lubuntu" Distro?
[03:23] <doomblade> ola?
[03:23] <kerNULL> i am sure this is an easy fix, but when i try to send mail on my ubuntu server (using postfix) i can send just fine from the machine but if i connect from a remote computer and setup my server as SMTP it wont send mail... any thoughts
[03:24] <IdleOne> !es | doomblade
[03:24] <SpaceBass> Psydoll, the problem is that I can't change the LUN size in linux, so I seem to be stuck with a series of 2T drives
[03:24] <Jordan_U> acuarium: Thinking about it again it's probably better to just have two swap partitions (one on each drive) rather than making a raid0 array for swap.
[03:24] <hiexpo> dr_Willis, notyetlet mesee
[03:24] <m4v> Qiller: the iptables is in any Linux distro
[03:24] <doomblade> it's ok
[03:24] <Qiller> m4v: easy to configure?
[03:24] <doomblade> yes, just fine
[03:24] <acuarium> Jordan_U: Ok, doing it that way, I will continue with the installation
[03:24] <doomblade> i'm looking for help to my friend
[03:24] <Qiller> m4v:  easy to configure default rules using Lubuntu ?
[03:24] <doomblade> can somebody help me?
[03:24] <acuarium> Jordan_U: escott: Thank you both!
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: if you port forward TCP port 22 to the server, you can access it at any time from anywhere
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> Psydoll: if you want a hardware thing then it is outside the scope of the channel
[03:25] <m4v> Qiller: using the iptables itself isn't simple. You should try using an iptables frontend
[03:26] <comp10> elow
[03:26] <escott> !ufw | Qiller
[03:26] <jonf> Anybody else with console problems after a natty upgrade?
[03:26] <carnage1> nutty natter
[03:26] <Qiller> thank m4v  and escott
[03:27] <ActionParsnip> jonf: install guake and you are good to go ;)
[03:27] <Tiny> anyone in here have any experiance with the zimbra collaboration suite?
[03:27] <hiexpo> dr_Willis, yah that is for 11..04 i should have been specific 10.04
[03:27] <rudy__> Hey, I just finished upgrading to Natty (BEAUTIFUL) and a friend of mine had a question.. what would happen if we stopped the upgrade process in the middle of installation by pulling out the power chord.. would our operating system still work
[03:28] <Qiller> m4v: hmm, can i download and install Lubuntu and configure iptables using UFW?
[03:28] <jonf> ActionParsnip: I'm having problems with a getty not being spawned any more on my default virtual terminal
[03:28] <yell0w> rudy__: laptop then yes
[03:28] <hiexpo> rudy__, bad idea
[03:28] <carnage1> no
[03:28] <yell0w> rudy__: desktop, not so good
[03:28] <Tiny> anyone know of the zimbra mail server requires a local dns
[03:29] <rudy__> yeah, i said to him it would be a horrible idea
[03:29] <m4v> Qiller: UFW should be installed any Ubuntu derivative, so yes.
[03:30] <phiV> guys question, how can I open a window of the current path from the terminal? i.e. I'm at my ~/Document directory in the terminal and want to open a  GUI window for this current path.
[03:31] <dr_Willis> nautilus ./
[03:31] <Kreative`> phiV, nautilus ~\Documents in terminal
[03:31] <phiV> thanks!
[03:31] <dr_Willis> opens current dir
[03:31] <c0dege3k> Weird problem happening: I can't load anything but the main page in the software center. help?
[03:31] <phiV> ok thanks! is this true for most distros?
[03:32] <Kreative`> Provided they had nautilus installed, yes.
[03:32] <Kreative`> have*
[03:32] <dr_Willis> bash basics
[03:32] <phiV> k
[03:32] <Qiller> m4v:  its ubuntu channel, more can i download Puppy distro and use iptables? I need get a small distro.
[03:33] <dr_Willis> iptables is standrd on most distros
[03:33] <m4v> Qiller: iptables should be available in any Linux distro. Though as I said, the iptables isn't so simple to use. That's why Ubuntu has frontends like ufw
[03:33] <nit-wit> codege3k; if it is a fresh install run a upxdate.
[03:33] <nit-wit> *update
[03:34] <The_Pugilist> so I somehow managed to remove myself from the sudoers list... the last thing i did was to add my user to the vboxuser group in an attempt to configure virutalbox... now i am unable to do anything with my computer... is there any workaround for this?
[03:34] <Qiller> m4v: hmm im learning about ufw, its cool... more i wanna get small distro to use
[03:34] <escott> The_Pugilist, boot the livecd and add yourself back to the sudoers list
[03:35] <Kreative`> m4v, you may also want to look into apf.
[03:35] <The_Pugilist> that just consists of adding my username to that file?
[03:35] <Kreative`> m4v, though, only a bit simpler than iptagbles, if you want something simple, go with ufw
[03:35] <nit-wit> The_Pugilist, look here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1063418
[03:36] <escott> The_Pugilist, more likely adding yourself to the admin group
[03:36] <The_Pugilist> yeah, it would seem that somehow by adding myself to one group i removed myself from all others
[03:36] <mishtha> can anyone tell me about any keylogger fa bt4
[03:36] <ActionParsnip> The_Pugilist: you ran the usermod command wrong then, seen this a lot
[03:37] <escott> The_Pugilist, thats a common mistake to make when using the groups command.
[03:37] <The_Pugilist> hehe, leave it to me... i go to set something up on my linux box and break 2 other things
[03:37] <qin> The_Pugilist: adduser username desired_group (cannot be easier)
[03:37] <dr_Willis> ive never needed to add myself to a vbox groiup in the past...
[03:38] <escott> The_Pugilist, in the future when using usermod use the -a option in addition to -G
[03:38] <wurmt0ngue> is there a way to take this stupid application launcher bar off of 11.04 and just have a normal gnome ui?
[03:38] <The_Pugilist> dr_Willis, virtualbox said i had to add myself to the group in order to use USB support
[03:38] <The_Pugilist> yeah wurmt0ngue i only used -G
[03:38] <dr_Willis> !classic
[03:38] <nit-wit> wurmt0ngue, choose the classic dektop at the login.
[03:39] <The_Pugilist> thank you all for your help :)
[03:39] <dr_Willis> I thought it added users to that group by default. But ha havent used the latest vbox
[03:39] <The_Pugilist> 4.0 i believe is what i have
[03:39] <ActionParsnip> wurmt0ngue: select gnome classic at logon, you'll get the original desktop
[03:39] <The_Pugilist> 4.0.8 as a matter of fact dr_Willis
[03:39] <ActionParsnip> The_Pugilist: once you get added to the admin group you can add yourself to other groups
[03:40] <Qiller> m4v: can i install ufw into Lubuntu ?
[03:40] <xrfang> hello, how can I access $val in parent function from within anonymous function? http://www.ideone.com/d4srR
[03:40] <xrfang> thanks
[03:41] <xrfang> sorry wrong forum..;
[03:41] <wurmt0ngue> omg much better, that launcher bar is painful
[03:41] <wurmt0ngue> thx
[03:41] <dr_Willis> Qiller:  lubuntu uses the same repso. so anything you can install in ubuntu you can insztall un lubuntu
[03:41] <rww> Qiller: it should come by default. if not, install the 'ufw' package.
[03:41] <The_Pugilist> ActionParsnip, can i still do this from the live cd?
[03:41]  * rww assumes Lubuntu uses ubuntu-standard metapackage
[03:41] <Qiller> ahh
[03:42] <Qiller> thank, downloading ufw
[03:42] <Qiller> :)
[03:42] <Qiller> downloading Lubuntu*
[03:42] <dr_Willis> i always install lubuntu-desktop obver my Ubuntu Installs :_ so i ca use either.
[03:42] <ninjaneo> hi i moved my kernel image, expecting to be dropped to the grub console on reboot...
[03:42] <ActionParsnip> The_Pugilist: i guess, you can drop to root recovery mode and do it there instead, easier
[03:42] <mishtha> can anyone tell me about any keylogger fa bt4
[03:42] <websiteguy> hello
[03:42] <ActionParsnip> mishtha: backtrack isnt supoprted here in any way
[03:42] <rww> mishtha: Backtrack Linux isn't supported here. Register with nickserv and try #backtrack-linux.
[03:43] <ninjaneo> how do i get to the grub console =x
[03:43] <dr_Willis> keeloggers wouldent be aupported either
[03:43] <The_Pugilist> sounds good ActionParsnip ill have try that, be right back ;)
[03:43] <qin> mishtha: logkeys (at google code you will find source)
[03:43] <nit-wit> ninjaneo, this a regular dual boot not a wubi?
[03:44] <ninjaneo> not sure what a wubi is, but I moved the /boot/vmlinuz file thinking i would be given the grub rescue console
[03:45] <ninjaneo> it just says that it couldn't find the file, and the failback entry didn't work either, and i press "any key" to continue, and it says the same thing
[03:45] <rww> ninjaneo: hold down the shift key at boot
[03:45] <ninjaneo> its painful
[03:45] <dr_Willis> grub command line - can be reaced via the 'c' key at the grub menu i belive
[03:45] <dr_Willis> No need to do any fancy tricks.
[03:45] <ninjaneo> shoot all i have is vnc access its vps
[03:45] <dr_Willis> Hiding grub menu- is a differnt thing totally. :) heh
[03:45] <walllable> how do i get to this channel on my omebrew pre plus?
[03:46] <dr_Willis> wallable use an irc client. conect to freeenode
[03:46] <ninjaneo> I just was never able to get to the grub menu bah I fucked this up
[03:46] <carnage1> try #1 chat avenue
[03:46] <dr_Willis> i alwys set grub to NEVER hide
[03:46] <ninjaneo> i was trying to do that but /boot/grub.cfg was a fucking mess
[03:46] <walllable> im using pound

[03:47] <qin> dr_Willis: £
[03:47] <walllable> its an irc cleint from preware
[03:47] <dr_Willis> you normally NEVER edit /boot/grub.cfg
[03:47] <rww> carnage1: I strongly suggest your contributions to #ubuntu become less random and offtopic.
[03:47] <ninjaneo> I saw that it defered to /etc/grub.d
[03:47] <carnage1> i suggest you eat dirt
[03:47] <ninjaneo> looked in there and that was a mess too
[03:47] <rww> !guidelines > carnage1

[03:48] <dr_Willis> time to check the grub2 docs and up your grub-fu skill levles :)
[03:48] <nit-wit> ninjaneo, if you would like you can run this script and pastebin all the text and get past a lot of questions and to the point. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/

[03:49] <ActionParsnip> The_Pugilist: good lad :)
[03:49] <ActionParsnip> The_Pugilist: want a list of default groups?
[03:49] <ninjaneo> hrm, well I'm not your ordinary ubuntu user, no offense =p, i don't have a way to run any script atm, if theres no easy way to get to the shell from vnc (which is silly) i'll just boot up the live cd
[03:49] <walllable> it says poll resulted in error:503
[03:49] <The_Pugilist> that would be awesome ActionParsnip
[03:50] <walllable> what does error 503 mean?

[03:50] <nit-wit> ninjaneo, if your speaking to me the script will benefit you as well.
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> ninjaneo: if you want a shell, just use openssh-server
[03:51] <ninjaneo> >_< i have no way to boot the box folks, I moved the kernel =x ok nevermind I know the solution
[03:51] <ninjaneo> thanks anyway
[03:51] <walllable> what is error 503
