[09:51] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: open the terminal and follow the first 2 instructions from this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 (sudo grub, find /boot/grub/stage1)
[09:51] <zetheroo1> th1_: it was working 100% about 2 kernel updates ago ... and then broke
[09:51] <EvaLuaTe> FiReSTaRT: ok, i'll restart now to install windows. If i run into problems i'll log back in here and ask for help :) thanks a lot for now
[09:51] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: do it my way just in case... i wouldn't rely on menu.lst
[09:51] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: hang on
[09:51] <ziroday> indus: I'd rather not
[09:52] <harri_> i'm trying to run something on a remote machine over ssh. Appending -display :0.0 doesn't work, export DISPLAY=:0.0 doesn't work. How can i find the current display on the remote machine?
[09:52] <th1_> zetheroo1, it works in other webcam apps but in skype it doesn't show the preview and then if fullscreening it sometimes stops video completely
[09:52] <__iron> veekram: hi
[09:52] <th1_> but skype for linux is so sucky buggy POS
[09:52] <zetheroo1> th1_: oh right, well for me its broke everywhere... super dark picture
[09:52] <indus> ziroday: was kidding
[09:52] <th1_> zetheroo1, it might be fixed in karmic then, the kernel is much newer
[09:53] <jitender> any body can help me to run rsync command for backup
[09:53] <zetheroo1> does anyone know how to manually brighten the webcam image? ... I heard there was a file somewhere where you could up the brightness etc ...
[09:53] <indus> zetheroo1: install xawtv and adjust
[09:53] <indus> zetheroo1: wont save on reboot though
[09:54] <zetheroo1> th1_: yeah well it seems to me that newer kernels can mean good or bad things ... the jury is still out on this one
[09:54] <zetheroo1> indus: oh ok
[09:54] <farciarz84> I would like to write CV (resume) on ubuntu. Would you reccomend me some nice tool that will make this task easy and the effects pleasant? Thx in advance
[09:54] <jitender> hello
[09:54] <th1_> zetheroo1, you can try burning a liveCD or usb stick with latest karmic and see if it works when you boot from that
[09:54] <jitender> help me budys
[09:54] <ziroday> farciarz84: Lyx or OpenOffice Word
[09:54] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: good luck and i wish you about 1% of the time investment that i had to put in to get a dual-boot setup going ;)
[09:54] <farciarz84> ziroday: some sample?
[09:55] <jitender> rsync
[09:55] <farciarz84> Lyx ~ latex?
[09:55] <jitender> rsync
[09:55] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: and our thanks go out to very helpful people on #grub who saved my uncle's computer from getting thrown out the window out of sheer rage ;)
[09:55] <indus> jitender: did you read the link i gave you yesterday?
[09:55] <jitender> any body take his backup

[09:55] <ubuntunewbie2> Anyone know how to fix font ? I did modified the font to segoe UI fonts , how to reset it to be default arial and Sans using command line ?
[09:55] <jitender> but unable to run the commands
[09:55] <ubuntunewbie2> Thank you
[09:56] <jitender> i want full steps
[09:56] <harri_> i'm trying to run something on a remote machine over ssh. Appending -display :0.0 doesn't work, export DISPLAY=:0.0 doesn't work. How can i find the current display on the remote machine?
[09:56] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: by the way if you don't wanna waste a cd, you can always use the autosupergrub disk and install it from the windows box.. if you give me a second i'll dig up those two links :P
[09:57] <th1_> harri_, if you use "ssh -X user@host" it shoudl set it automatically unless X tunelling is disabled
[09:57] <th1_> harri_, check /etc/ssh/sshd_config and see if X11Forwarding is "yes"
[09:57] <th1_> (on the target computer)
[09:58] <indus> jitender: dont expect full steps here
[09:58] <th1_> if not, make it so and sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[09:58] <indus> jitender: google for it and you have to help yourself
[09:58] <indus> jitender: you havent even mentioned what problem you faced when running rsync
[09:58] <StrangeCharm> i think that grub is looking at the wrong disk to read its config (&c) from, from a live environment that can mount /boot, on the right disk, what changes should i make to get it to look at the right disk/partition?
[09:59] <th1_> StrangeCharm, grub1 or grub2?
[09:59] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto <-- general grub how to, http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/AutoSuperGrubDisk <-- to get the autosupergrubdisk (for some reason it worked for me while the unetwhatever disk didn't work)
[09:59] <StrangeCharm> th1_, grub2
[10:00] <th1_> StrangeCharm, check /boot/grub/device.map
[10:00] <harri_> th1_, I don't wan 't to tunnel anything..  I want to run a remote app on a remote computer on its local display
[10:00] <indus> zetheroo1: i forgot to say, it uses grub2 now which is more difficult
[10:01] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i'm looking at device.map, but i'm not sure what the correct changes are. i don't know what this file is meant to do.
[10:01] <th1_> harri_, ok I see, is the user you're logged in as on ssh also logged into the local X session ?
[10:01] <FiReSTaRT> EvaLuaTe: ok time for me to tcb, so good luck with your dualboot setup... ciao :)
[10:01] <th1_> StrangeCharm, it's supposed to map the Linux devices to the BIOS/GRUB devices
[10:01] <ubuntunewbie2> Anyone know how to fix font ? I did modified the font to segoe UI fonts , how to reset it to be default arial and Sans using command line ? I am having problem http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/9766/screenshotml0.png PLease
[10:01] <harri_> th1_, yup
[10:02] <hno> Do anyone know how to most easily download a ubuntu deb package, preferablu using apt or similar?
[10:02] <koshari> hno apt-get
[10:02] <th1_> harri_, ps ax | grep X should give you a display number
[10:02] <hno> koshari: I only want to download the package, not install it.
[10:03] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i know which disk /boot is on, but i don't know which disk grub is reading from
[10:03] <jitender> when i run rsync its show failed in terminal
[10:03] <koshari> hno: installing is "apt-get package install"
[10:03] <th1_> StrangeCharm, it should read it from the same where it read the MBR from
[10:03] <invitingdopeman> how do i get aircrack
[10:04] <invitingdopeman> ?
[10:04] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i don't know which that is either
[10:04] <th1_> StrangeCharm, try booting from a GRUB2 bootable USB key and examine what is what
[10:05] <hno> koshari: I know.. just can't figure out how to get apt-get to download without messing with system package status.
[10:05] <StrangeCharm> th1_, a grub2 bootable usb key? how would i determine what's going on?
[10:06] <th1_> the grub2 command line is like a shell
[10:06] <koshari> hno how does the -d switch mess with the package list?
[10:06] <th1_> you can ls files and stuff
[10:06] <hno> koshari: That checks if the pacage is already installed and skips download..
[10:07] <hno> koshari: Plust that it needs to run as root..
[10:07] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i can already get the grub rescue environment on this box. surely i can get from there to wherever i need to be?
[10:07] <koshari> hno if its already there it will be in the apt cache, so you should be able to copy it from there
[10:07] <th1_> StrangeCharm, if you can then you are fine.. then you can ls (hd0) etc
[10:07] <Sdaros> hi there I am trying to install google earth to my ubuntu box but the download link does not function, address is here http://earth.google.com/intl/en/ do I have to install something for it to function?
[10:07] <th1_> and figure out what its trying to do from that
[10:08] <hno> koshari: And if it's not? (it isn't)
[10:08] <koshari> Sdaros why dont you get google earth from medibuntu
[10:08] <wWales> how many colors can the gimp color picker tool distinguish between?
[10:08] <Sdaros> koshari: didn't know about that, is that from add remove programs
[10:09] <koshari> hno you could manually download it through the ubuntu site,
[10:09] <koshari> !medibuntu
[10:10] <Sdaros> thank you very much for the tip, let me check
[10:10] <hno> koshari: I know, but that's a mess. Need something I can script.
[10:11] <koshari> hno aptcacher ng may be something to check out
[10:11] <StrangeCharm> th1_, ls gives me 'unknown filesystem' on every disk i ask for
[10:11] <th1_> StrangeCharm, what does plain "ls" give?
[10:11] <NET||abuse> have to say i'm a little bit dissapointed with synaptic, i get the updates list on my laptop, and i want to read what's happening in the updates, but i'm on x64, and the changes textarea just says "Failed to detect distribution"
[10:11] <NET||abuse> it's rather frustrating..
[10:12] <aimtrainer> Hi! How do I find out the /dev/??? for my dvd-burner? Thanks
[10:12] <StrangeCharm> th1_, (hd0) (hd0,1) (hd1) (hd1,1) (fd0)
[10:13] <NET||abuse> aimtrainer, if it's internal device it'l likely already mounted..
[10:13] <th1_> StrangeCharm, does it say "unknown filesystem" for all of those (ignore fd0, that's the floppy)?
[10:13] <indus> aimtrainer: ls -l /dev/sd*
[10:13] <zer0x> aimtrainer: sudo lshw | grep -i dvd
[10:13] <StrangeCharm> th1_, yes, is says that for all of those
[10:14] <NET||abuse> aimtrainer, otherwise,, just type "mount" into command line,, it'll be listed.
[10:14] <th1_> StrangeCharm, check if /boot/grub/ has the GRUB file system modules you need (e.g. ext2.mod)
[10:14] <aimtrainer> it is mounted
[10:14] <aimtrainer> but I need the /dev/... to buirn in console
[10:14] <indus> aimtrainer: ya in a terminal type mount
[10:14] <NET||abuse> ok, just hitting mount on the command line will show you the device location and the mount point.. so you should be able to determine it fro that.
[10:14] <indus> aimtrainer:wil be in last lines /dev/scd0 or something
[10:15] <StrangeCharm> th1_, how would ls be working if it didn't?
[10:15] <aimtrainer> ok thanks you guys
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[10:15] <zer0x> yo :D
[10:15] <gk__> hi
[10:15] <th1_> StrangeCharm, it says unknown file system hence its not finding the file system
[10:15] <th1_> StrangeCharm, try "lsmod" and "insmod ext2"
[10:15] <eevar2> are there usb-stick-images with the alternate x86-64 installer?
[10:15] <indus> eevar2: no but you can burn it to a usb
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> eevar2: you can use a tool to put the alternate iso on a usb stick
[10:16] <bourke> hi, flash seems to be lagging a lot for me in firefox, but no in opera.. has anyone found this issue?
[10:16] <aimtrainer> indus, it's /dev/sr0 can that be right?
[10:16] <indus> bourke: its  a issue with ff and flash,
[10:16] <indus> aimtrainer: ya can be
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> eevar2: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/    just use the alternate
[10:16] <Temujin2> does ubuntu have a hdd corruption checker/ fixer program?
[10:16] <bourke> indus: is it to do with a recent update, because I dont remember it happening before..
[10:16] <StrangeCharm> th1_, lsmod gives unknown command. insmod ext2 gives no error
[10:16] <eevar2> ActionParsnip: thanks
[10:16] <indus> aimtrainer: navigate to it and see whats in it
[10:16] <aimtrainer> alright thanks again
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: it has fsck
[10:16] <pietrubens> good morning
[10:16] <zer0x> aimtrainer: oops, sudo lshw | grep -A5 -B5 -i dvd
[10:16] <Temujin2> is it a gui?
[10:16] <indus> aimtrainer: ya correct in my machine too its sr0
[10:17] <indus> aimtrainer: enjoy
[10:17] <indus> zer0x: easier with mount command :)
[10:17] <StrangeCharm> th1_, and after insmod ext2, i still get unknown filesystems
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: no, you may be able to call it from gparted though, why so afraid of command line
[10:17] <zer0x> indus: true, but if there was nothing mounted :D
[10:17] <indus> zer0x: hmm
[10:17] <Temujin2> i haven't got time for it
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: to fsck the partition or disk needs to be unmounted
[10:18] <th1_> StrangeCharm, what file systems would you expect to find on (hd0,1) and (hd1,1) respectively?
[10:18] <zer0x> indus: lshw FTW :D
[10:18] <Temujin2> ActionParsnip, i'm going to be running ubuntu off a cd
[10:18] <indus> zer0x: yeah but that A5 B5 what does it do?
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: once you learn the one command to check an fs, you can use it on multiple systems
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: the cd has a terminal
[10:18] <zer0x> indus: after and before 5 lines from match :D
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SystemAdministration/Fsck
[10:19] <indus> zer0x: lol ok thanks
[10:19] <Temujin2> ok
[10:19] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i'm not completely sure which disk is which, but i'd expect to find dm-crypt on 1,1 and ext4 on 0,1
[10:20] <pietrubens> (note: i'm an absolute beginner) my problem: recently installed ubuntu 8.10 dual boot with vista, however, in ubuntu the internet would not work. I tried to read in on a few forums, but did not come across one that resolved my problem. I tried to install the 9.10 beta then hoping that there would be no more problem. However, when installing it seemed that only 2 possibilities were possible: installing on the whole hard
[10:20] <Temujin2> do you know if feather linux has fsck?
[10:20] <StrangeCharm> th1_, either way, if it can't read any filesystems at all, then wherre is it reading ls from?
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> Temujin2: should do
[10:23] <zer0x> indus: I am trying to find a nice reliable way of doing it..
[10:24] <zer0x> indus: other than piping lshw | less
[10:24] <raik> hello
[10:25] <ubuntunewbie2> Anyone know how to fix font ? I did modified the font to segoe UI fonts , how to reset it to be default arial and Sans using command line ? I am having problem http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/9766/screenshotml0.png PLease help\
[10:25] <th1_> StrangeCharm, ls is already built into its shell
[10:26] <zer0x> indus: lol, wodim --devices
[10:26] <zer0x> :D
[10:26] <roffe> I just saw a video where the "places" and "system" tabs where in the application menu. How do I change that?
[10:26] <th1_> StrangeCharm, but it is still weird
[10:27] <StrangeCharm> th1_, i don't think so: previously (before making changes with a livecd) i had to manually specify a prefix to get ls, but it still gave me unknown filesystem when looking at that same disk
[10:29] <prkos1> Where in Karmic are the additional options that were under Login Window in jaunty? Specifically I need Security, allow TCP connections to Xserver
[10:30] <izzi_> !Karmic
[10:31] <infid> does jaunty use metacity or compiz by default?
[10:33] <th1_> StrangeCharm, well then I dunno, maybe a grub bug?
[10:33] <theadmin> huh. I seem to receive a signal from wireless network "test". WTF?
[10:34] <timmillwood> hi
[10:34] <StrangeCharm> th1_, are there known to be any bugs in grub?
[10:34] <timmillwood> thinking of making the switch to ubuntu. Wondering what laptop you'd recommend?
[10:35] <knarf> hi
[10:35] <jrib> timmillwood: I would just find some nice ones you like and then search for issues with ubuntu.  But dell and systm76 sell laptops with ubuntu
[10:35] <potwak> knarf: hello
[10:35] <jrib> timmillwood: system76*
[10:36] <timmillwood> jrib: thanks.
[10:36] <knarf> anyone with a dell latitude c610 running karmic?
[10:36] <jrib> knarf: two things: 1) Just ask your question.  2) karmic questions in #ubuntu+1 please

[10:38] <lirr> Hi, I want to port a simple linux gtk application on windows. What do I need in order to compile it ?
[10:39] <jrib> lirr: gtk works on windows if that's your question
[10:39] <theadmin> lirr: MinGW and GTK libraries
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> lirr: gimp needs gtk
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> lirr: under windows you install it before gimp
[10:41] <lirr> theadmin, mingw and the whole gtk package ?
[10:41] <lirr> But what if i want my application to be standalone, do I only need the gtk runtime after ?
[10:41] <slowbuntu> whats up people
[10:41] <theadmin> lirr: Well, no, there is some GTK installer, windows-specific. Not really much into microsoft stuff, sorry.
[10:41] <slowbuntu> who knows how to hack a wpa/psk personnal wireless key

[10:45] <Temujin2> i can see which is a cdrom and a floppy drive (although i don't have a floppy drive)
[10:45] <th1_> Temujin2, if it's called something like /dev/sdaX or /dev/hdaX it's probably a hard drive
[10:45] <th1_> or you can write df -h
[10:46] <Temujin2> it's not listed
[10:46] <Temujin2> i can feel the drive working, but there's something wrong with it
[10:46] <th1_> you can write cat /proc/partitions

[10:56] <slowbuntu> theadmin hope it wont disturb my ubuntu desktop
[10:56] <theadmin> slowbuntu: It won't, it'll just install KDE and it's apps.
[10:57] <zer0x> slowbuntu: you get to choose the windowmanager for your session at the login prompt
[10:59] <slowbuntu> thanks
[10:59] <theadmin> slowbuntu: Note that it's quite big so you need a good connection to install it.

[11:12] <zer0x> InDaLivingRoom1: ah, that is probably your problem.. I think the converter that comes with the graphics card has some extra feature..
[11:12] <cybic> InDaLivingRoom, thx... got it
[11:12] <InDaLivingRoom1> cybic: np
[11:12] <zer0x> InDaLivingRoom1: I use that converted and an HDMI-HDMI cable with no problems
[11:12] <cybic> it's not here in Ubuntu 9.10 - but i could write it in manually
[11:12] <zer0x> InDaLivingRoom1: *converter

[11:30] <chiiiiiz_88> hi!
[11:30] <meowbuntu> bazhang, the tutoral is related to ubuntu not linux mint
[11:30] <MikeBarton> well ive made a backup with webmin... i know horrible way to go, but rsync made the server crash... couldnt figure out what folders to exclude, i figured I needed everything. Will placing a backup image onto a new HDD be enough?
[11:30] <bazhang> meowbuntu, there is no such package neogren in the repos

[11:31] <chiiiiiz_88> ActionParsnip: the string I am looking for is in the file, not in its name

[11:32] <erUSUL> chiiiiiz_88: use antiword to turn every doc in txt and grep the output ?
[11:32] <MikeBarton> i will read the links
[11:32] <bazhang> meowbuntu, you want a wallpaper utility? the package name for that is nitrogen not nitrogren
[11:32] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: i doubt grep can handle a doc file
[11:32] <chiiiiiz_88> thanks
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: bah
[11:33] <shadowdxs> ActionParsnip is right for what google says
[11:33] <shadowdxs> from^
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: if you look most of the text is pretty plain, just gets surrounded by extra MS rubbish
[11:33] <chiiiiiz_88> erUSUL: never heard about antiword. Does it also work if the doc file contains a spreadsheet?
[11:33] <meowbuntu> bazhang, its a typo i will let the creator know

[11:36] <Kingsy101> hey guys I was thinking about upgrading ubuntu to 9.04 from 8.10 today, however I remember having problems with it.. is there anything you should do before upgrading? or is there a special way of doing it?
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: not hugely last i looked, ive not looked at 07 files yet but if you open one in gedit etc you can see most of the words
[11:36] <Kingsy101> last time I had it installed it just crashed randomly
[11:37] <MikeBarton> ok thanks guys will try some new things!! good day to all!!
[11:37] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: ok; i stand correctd ;)
[11:37] <riker2000> I am trying to install fsecure client security for linux and it is forces the installation as an rpm packed so I can't use alien to convert it as I don't get the rpm file. It assumes an rpm database. I have installed rpm but it is still not working.
[11:37] <riker2000> can anyone help or point to some place where i can get help
[11:37] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: still you reversed the order of parameters in the grep call :P
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: unfortunately i'm not sure all the text will be visiible so false negatives may occur so your little extra bit is handy
[11:38] <chiiiiiz_88> erUSUL: it returns errors "grep: no file or folder of that kind " (translated from french)
[11:38] <riker2000> ?
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: that too, but your bash is waaay better than mine
[11:38] <chiiiiiz_88> erUSUL: "find: missing parameter for "-exec"
[11:39] <erUSUL> chiiiiiz_88: you installed antiword ?
[11:39] <chiiiiiz_88> yes I did
[11:39] <chiiiiiz_88> i am not that noob

[11:40] <conb123> Hiya does anyone know how i can remove all of the kde programs without removing the desktop environment itself
[11:40] <conb123> ?
[11:41] <bazhang> conb123, you want kde4 with only gtk apps?
[11:41] <StrangeCharm> after a fresh install of the karmic RC, with several, distinct encrypted disks, i'm encountring a problem decrypting them at boot: when prompted for the passphrase for the disk that contains /, all goes well, but when prompted for the phrase for md0_crypt, the message "* Reloading /etc/samba/smb.conf smdb only" appears on the same line, before I am able to completely enter the phrase. why is this happenning? how can I stop it?
[11:41] <conb123> bazhang: Well yeah, i originally installed gnome ubuntu and then kde over the top but all the kde programs make my menus cluttered
[11:42] <riker2000> I am trying to install fsecure client security for linux and it is forces the installation as an rpm packed so I can't use alien to convert it as I don't get the rpm file. It assumes an rpm database. I have installed rpm but it is still not working.
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> conb123: then either uninstall them, or use alacarte / kmenuedit   to remove them
[11:42] <riker2000> can anyone help or point to some place where i can get help?
[11:42] <bazhang> conb123, not sure there is a method for that; you can edit the apps menu to hide them, and manually uninstall the ones you don't want though
[11:42] <InDaLivingRoom> i got this annoying problem that i have to reset my graphics settings after every reboot on ubuntu as the settings are always being set to something that i had set an eternity ago, how can i fix this? it is an ati 4670 btw...
[11:42] <Joric> hello there
[11:42] <conb123> Actionparsnip: Yes i suppose i could just remove them all for the menus
[11:42] <erUSUL> chiiiiiz_88: maybe find do not like the pipe in the exec call
[11:42] <Joric> i have a problem with risen + 9800 gt on wine what nvidia drivers are best?

[11:43] <ActionParsnip> conb123: its the problem with installing the metapackage if youo just want the desktop
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> conb123: like if people just want xfce desktop I dont advise they install xubuntu-desktop   its massive, you can install xfce4 get the desktop but not so many of the apps which keeps things nice and neat

[11:51] <cybic> ok - found a solution! it's NOT gnome-volume-control (and it's 100% NOT in the add to panel menu!!!) it's just "notification area" applet for the panel!
[11:51] <cybic> anyway - thank you very much for trying to help me...
[11:55] <cristi_> is there an appropriate channel to ask for help recovering data from a broken flashstick using jaunty?
[11:56] <Halitech> cristi_, try testdisk or photorec
[11:56] <Halitech> cristi_, is the drive seen when you plug it in?
[11:56] <MixMix> cristi_: how is it broken?
[11:56] <darkpeter> hello !
[11:56] <erUSUL> cristi_: depends on how broken he flashstick is ... can you make a image of it using dd ?
[11:56] <darkpeter> how r u there ?
[11:57] <darkpeter> anyone can say me where i can found the xorg.conf in ubuntu 9.10 ??
[11:57] <erUSUL> darkpeter: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:57] <FuzzYspo0N> hey - anyone ever have issues with samba and cron reporting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE, but works normally in terminal?
[11:57] <erUSUL> darkpeter: but it is not mandatory so it may be not there
[11:57] <darkpeter> nope :( there is not this file in 9.10 :(
[11:57] <Halitech> darkpeter, normally its /etc/X11/xrg.conf but its not used much anymore as everything is automatically configured
[11:58] <DaZ> badly automagically configured
[11:58] <DaZ> <:
[11:59] <Halitech> darkpeter, /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /etc/x11/xorg.conf are not the same, which did you look for?
[11:59] <darkpeter> i just want to have 1280x1024 and i just have 1024x768 :(
[11:59] <baderahmed> hello
[11:59] <FuzzYspo0N> lol, what
[11:59] <cristi_> i do have a dd image of the drive. it used to be fat32 though it seems that the partition table is completely gone.
[12:00] <Halitech> darkpeter, what video card?
[12:00] <darkpeter> intel graphics 2
[12:00] <darkpeter> direct rendering is Ok
[12:00] <Halitech> cristi_, what does sudo fdisk -l show? use pastebin to show us
[12:00] <erUSUL> cristi_: you can use photorec from testdisk package to recover the files within (it can work on the image to be extra safe)
[12:01] <erUSUL> cristi_: testdisk itself can be used to restore the partition table on the device
[12:02] <erUSUL> cristi_: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[12:02] <baderahmed> is there a tutorial to learn php senior?
[12:02] <meowbuntu> anyone here know the terminal command for what os i am running
[12:02] <FuzzYspo0N> baderahmed:w3schools
[12:02] <erUSUL> cristi_: the website is pretty good it has step by step how tos for both tools
[12:02] <erUSUL> !info testdisk | cristi_
[12:02] <bazhang> meowbuntu, lsb_release -a
[12:03] <darkpeter> halitech : any idea ?
[12:03] <zer0x> darkpeter: you can force a resolution by adding the modeline to xorg.conf..
[12:04] <darkpeter> zer0x : where is the xorg.conf in 9.10 ?
[12:04] <zer0x> darkpeter: you'll need to create an xorg.conf by switching to a virtual console, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, sudo X -configure
[12:04] <Halitech> darkpeter, not sure, I know in 9.04 there were some issues but if there is no xorg.conf I'm not sure where to point you
[12:04] <cristi_> Halitech: I don't think fdisk will give me anything..... http://paste.ubuntu.com/302718/
[12:04] <iceroot> darkpeter: /etc/X11/xorg.conf and in #ubuntu+1
[12:04] <jet_> hey everyone, im sort of new to configuring and installing "dohickeys" with ubuntu/linux im stuck as to know what kind of video capture card i have, im trying to set up zoneminder to catch the thieves who sneak into my bedroom
[12:04] <zer0x> darkpeter: this will create xorg.conf.new in the current folder, you then copy that to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:04] <cristi_> erUSUL: thanks, those tools look quite powerful, i will give it a read...
[12:05] <baderahmed> is there a tutorial to learn php senior?
[12:05] <darkpeter> zr0x : i will try !
[12:05] <MixMix> jet_: lspci -v
[12:05] <Halitech> cristi_, it should if its seeing the drive
[12:05] <iceroot> baderahmed: #php, google, php.net
[12:05] <zer0x> darkpeter: then you can use gtf to generate a modeline, and insert it into xorg.conf
[12:05] <cristi_> Halitech: it reads "sdb: unknown partition table" when detecting the device
[12:06] <Halitech> cristi_, I've seen that before, could just mean its using raw mode and doesn't have an actual partition
[12:06] <cristi_> Halitech: therefore, http://paste.ubuntu.com/302722/
[12:07] <jet_> MixMix: im not sure....
[12:08] <cristi_> Halitech: it used to be a fat32, until i attempted to copy a 1.5GB file to it. after umounting it, i plugged it into a different box and ... nothing. no partition.
[12:08] <Halitech> cristi_, nope, thats not what I usually see, can partition editor see it and if it does, what does it say about it?
[12:08] <jet_> MixMix: would you like to read the wiki and catch up to where im at? i cant really explain my actions in technical speak
[12:09] <cristi_> Halitech: I also looked and the mbr using some hex tools and it seems completely f*ckd/ zeroed...

[12:16] <m41n1> Guys, do you know if you can use Ubuntu One to mount a SVN?

[12:18] <ltspadmin> after click on unlock (in users settings) password popup shoud come but its not come in ubuntu 8.04 because of that i cannot create an user
[12:19] <cdoublejj> how do you force quit an app
[12:19] <MixMix> Prentice: is the hardware ok? Does it work on another computer? Does a light come on?
[12:19] <indus> jet_: just for information, doing a dpkg-reconfigure <pacakage> will help
[12:19] <indus> jet_: assuming you are having troubles with somevideo device
[12:19] <Prentice> MixMix: the light flashes and it works fine on my windows pc
[12:19] <Halitech> cdoublejj, killall -9 <packagename> or xkill if its a gui app and showing
[12:19] <indus> Ozzy: acpi=on
[12:19] <cdoublejj> i killed it
[12:19] <E3b> someone please?
[12:19] <indus> Ozzy: its on by default anyway
[12:19] <elian1> Someone speaks in Spanish? I need to connect my gmail account in pidgin. I'm new to this (*)
[12:20] <m41n1> hi guys, do you know if you can use Ubuntu One as SVN?
[12:20] <FiReSTaRT> cdoublejj: open system monitor, and find the process id (PID) number on the list, open terminal, kill -9 pid (if the pid = 9642, you do kill -9 9642)
[12:20] <indus> E3b: ask your question
[12:20] <Halitech> !es | elian1
[12:20] <E3b> hello all.. I have problem with gnone-panel , when network is down, gnome panel is freezing until network is back... someone can help me please? (Ubuntu 9.04)
[12:20] <MixMix> Prentice: try mount -a
[12:20] <Prentice> MixMix: sudo or not?
[12:20] <ltspadmin> after click on unlock (in users settings) password popup shoud come but its not come in ubuntu 8.04 because of that i cannot create an user
[12:20] <MixMix> Prentice: not sudo should work fine
[12:20] <elian1> Thanks.. =)
[12:20] <Ozzy> indus: It can't be, because when I boot up it drops to a busybox shell saying it can't find my root device
[12:21] <Prentice> MixMix:
[12:21] <Prentice> MixMix: I did it without sudo and it needed root so I did with sudo nothing has happened
[12:22] <newM41n1> hi guys, do you know if you can use Ubuntu One as SVN?
[12:22] <MixMix> Prentice: if you type mount on its own does it show up?
[12:22] <Prentice> newM41n1: repeat
[12:22] <Prentice> MixMix: what do you mean
[12:22] <newM41n1> sorry, i thought i was logged out
[12:22] <MixMix> Prentice: type mount
[12:23] <Varan> zer0x: I mean more like a tool that only shows only the things that I have explicitly installed.
[12:24] <zer0x> Varan: dpkg -l will list only installed packages, the list wil be very long on a desktop install :D
[12:24] <Prentice> MixMix: Ok typed mount in terminal
[12:24] <gerald_> hi
[12:25] <zer0x> Varan: dpkg -l | wc -l gives 1718 packages on my current install
[12:25] <Prentice> MixMix: u there?
[12:26] <zer0x> Varan: ah, you mean what you have installed manually since the initial install?... umm, not sure
[12:26] <Halitech> Varan, you can use synaptic and view the history to see what you have installed by date but not sure of a way to list it as a text file
[12:27] <Prentice> hey, I'm having problems with my memory stick it was loading fine but I clicked unmount and now I can't see it
[12:27] <jet_> the guide im using is severley lacking in expanations for things that just dont automatically work
[12:27] <ltcabral> hey im trying to build an rpm in ubuntu but the following line is giving me problems: install -dv rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/noarch,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}   it creates a dir '{BUILD,RPMS' and a file 'SOURCES' instead... how can i fix that?
[12:27] <CoUrPsE> How can i debug why an application is not booting?
[12:28] <grawity> CoUrPsE: Is it a GUI application?
[12:28] <CoUrPsE> Nope, mysqld.
[12:28] <Halitech> CoUrPsE, start it from the terminal and see what error messages it gives
[12:28] <Prentice> hey, I'm having problems with my memory stick it was loading fine but I clicked unmount and now I can't see it
[12:28] <Prentice> Halitech: #terminal
[12:28] <grawity> CoUrPsE: Check syslog (/var/log/syslog)
[12:28] <CoUrPsE> it says, Starting mysql database server mysqld [fail]
[12:28] <Prentice> #terminal
[12:29] <grawity> CoUrPsE: Also, I think mysql has its own logs in /var/log/ ...
[12:29] <Prentice> .

[12:29] <FloodBot2> Prentice: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:29]  * grawity sighs.
[12:29] <CoUrPsE> grawity, Yeah, does, but for some reason its logs are empty.
[12:29] <psypher12> Good morning everyone
[12:30] <Prentice> hey, I'm having problems with my memory stick it was loading fine but I clicked unmount and now I can't see it
[12:30] <Shockrates_> hi
[12:30] <Shockrates_> does anyone know which browser is faster for linux? arora, firefox or opera
[12:30] <psypher12> Could someone check to see if they can view my web server from their side?
[12:30] <leeping> Hey there, I have a directory which contains more than 1,000,000 files that were erroneously generated overnight -- now I'm having a lot of trouble deleting this directory, "rm" has been running for about 10 minutes with no freeing up of space.  After you're all done laughing, please let me know if there's a faster way to delete this folder. :) Thanks
[12:30] <ltspadmin> how to creat an user
[12:30] <psypher12> Could someone check to see if they can view my web server from their side?
[12:30] <vge> Prentice: is it lsited in the "mount" list?
[12:30] <grawity> CoUrPsE: Some daemons can be started directly (/usr/bin/mysqld), without an initscript. Try mysqld --help, check if it has a 'verbose' option. Of course, you'll need to try it as mysqld's user (sudo -u mysql -i)
[12:30] <leeping> never mind - "rm" just finished =P
[12:30] <ltspadmin> how to creat an user in ltsp
[12:30] <Prentice> vge: no
[12:30] <leeping> The answer would be good for future reference though
[12:30] <Halitech> vge, whats the addy?
[12:30] <psypher12> Could someone check to see if they can view my web server from their side? I can send a link
[12:31] <ltspadmin> how to creat an user in ltsp if unlock option is not work....
[12:31] <vge> Halitech: addy?
[12:31] <Halitech> vge, sorry, eyes aren't working, that was for psypher12
[12:31] <psypher12> Here is the url : http://novasphere.no-ip.biz:8080/
[12:31] <grawity> leeping: There's a limit on how fast can disks spin... 'rm' must remove each and every file entry from the directory. Which obviously takes time.
[12:31] <grawity> psypher12: "Xenon Server Online!"
[12:31] <vge> Prentice: have your tried reentering it?
[12:31] <Varan> Halitech: Thanks thats very usefull
[12:31] <leeping> grawity, so you're saying there's no faster way than "rm"?
[12:31] <darkpeter> hi
[12:32] <Prentice> vge: what do you mean by that?
[12:32] <psypher12> let me know if its visible. and how fast its able to render the page
[12:32] <Prentice> .
[12:32] <ltspadmin> how to create an user in ubuntu - ltsp if unlock option is not work....
[12:32] <vge> Prentice: remove it and put it back in? :)
[12:32] <Halitech> Varan, not the option you were looking for I know but at least you can view it ... might be a log file in /var/log you can look at as well
[12:32] <Varan> Would be nice to have an app that shoulds the roots of the dependency tree
[12:32] <grawity> psypher12: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fnovasphere.no-ip.biz%3A8080%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
[12:32] <tj83__> is there a ubuntu server channel?
[12:32] <Varan> hmm owke
[12:33] <vge> Prentice: if it's not listed then it's not mounted and you can take it out
[12:33] <Varan> s/shoulds/shows/
[12:33] <Prentice> vge: ye loads of times
[12:33] <sipior> tj83__: #ubuntu-server, iirc, but you can ask questions here as well
[12:33] <grawity> psypher12: It works, it's quite fast, but the page is _really_ far away from being valid HTML...
[12:33] <indus> Ozzy: which cd is this? 9.04?
[12:33] <Prentice> vge: I've taken it out but it doesn't show when I plug it back in
[12:33] <psypher12> I dont care if its valid lol
[12:33] <Halitech> Varan, /var/log/apt/term.log
[12:33] <ltcabral> hey im trying to build an rpm in ubuntu but the following line is giving me problems: install -dv rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/noarch,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}   it creates a dir '{BUILD,RPMS' and a file 'SOURCES' instead... how can i fix that?
[12:33] <grawity> psypher12: Well, some do. Many browsers do too.
[12:33] <psypher12> I just want to validate if the server is online and responding well as I am hosting from home
[12:34] <psypher12> I have my web app I am gonna upload soon
[12:34] <tj83__> sipior, how well does virtualization work with ubuntu server as a host? is this even possible without the GUI?
[12:34] <darkpeter> anyone know how to force a screen resolution in 9.10 ?? i've create a xorg.conf but the system does not take this one
[12:34] <psypher12> Thanks for checking anyways!
[12:34] <Pici> darkpeter: 9.10 is not supported in this channel until it is released, please continue to use #ubuntu+1 until that time.
[12:34] <darkpeter> kk sorry !
[12:34] <psypher12> Where are you located ( geographically) grawity?
[12:35] <Prentice> vge: I've taken it out and back in again
[12:35] <Halitech> Varan, looks like its a log file of the actual install process so may not be much help to you
[12:35] <psypher12> Just wanting to assess the response time from your location
[12:35] <sipior> tj83__: been a while since i've used virtualisation under ubuntu server. try asking the channel at large for a proper picture.
[12:35] <ltspadmin> how to create an user in ubuntu - ltsp if unlock option is not work....
[12:36] <Totenkopf> tj83__: We run vmware on ubuntu server with great success
[12:36] <CoUrPsE> Humm.
[12:36] <CoUrPsE> Still nothing.
[12:36] <zvacet> Shockrates_: I prefer Opera over Firefox and never tried arora try and see
[12:36] <vge> Prentice: donno if i can help you further, if it don't show up in mount list it's not automounting which is not right :/
[12:37] <sipior> tj83__: it is certainly possible without the gui, however :-) (otherwise it would be pretty much useless)
[12:37] <iceroot> ltspadmin: useradd username
[12:37] <vge> Prentice: which you already knew :/
[12:37] <tj83__> Totenkopf, what is the exact vmware product you use? vmware-server? your doing in a client/server fashion? My goal is to run multiple CLI servers for the purpose of learning.
[12:37] <ltspadmin> but from gnome
[12:37] <MixMix5> Prentice: try restarting ubuntu
[12:37] <dhiaeldeen> how can i make ubuntu run most of the videos , i want codecs ...
[12:37] <lulika> I am trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 (server). sudo do-release-upgrade says "No new release found". Also, by using "update-manager -d" only gives me the option to update to 8.10. Please help :)
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> !codecs | dhiaeldeen
[12:37] <iceroot> !user | ltspadmin
[12:38] <Totenkopf> tj83__: We are using vmware-server, yes... the 2.0.x series has a web interface included, from which you can then launch a console if need be
[12:38] <Halitech> Prentice, I had some issues the other day that were similiar to what you are describing, from what I gathered hald was acting up but restarting just hald didn nothing, rebooted and everything was fine again
[12:38] <iceroot> lulika: you have to go through all releases
[12:38] <bob1> dhiaeldeen just use synaptic
[12:38] <lulika> iceroot: oh, okay
[12:38] <iceroot> lulika: or wait until 10.04 which is also an LTS and can be upgraded directly
[12:38] <ltspadmin> yes but when i click..it should ask a password ..but i didnt get it..
[12:38] <bob1> dhiaeldeen or auto codec search
[12:38] <iceroot> !who | ltspadmin
[12:38] <indus> i dont understand why people still have issues with codecs.Didnt hardy make playing all formats auto
[12:39] <iceroot> indus: no of course not (licence)
[12:39] <ltspadmin> ok..
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> indus:  not really.. I still have issues in 9.10 and totem auto-gettting codecs
[12:39] <ltspadmin> ubottu :- yes but when i click..it should ask a password ..but i didnt get it..
[12:39] <indus> iceroot: not about that, but it offers auto downloads for all things
[12:39] <dhiaeldeen> when i enter synaptic  , how can i dld vlc ?
[12:39] <iceroot> indus:  not for all
[12:39] <dhiaeldeen> i can't find it.
[12:39] <tj83__> Totenkopf, ah, i see, I was a bit confused, with normal desktop virtualization the environment is delivered there on the host machine. I was trying to make sense of how it was to be delivered , and vmware server seemed like the only possible solution. If someone were to just use basic virtual box or someting it wouldnt work as there was not xserver right?
[12:39] <grawity> !info vlc
[12:39] <indus> Dr_Willis: exactly which codecs? i play avi.mpeg2 and all other crazy formats
[12:39] <iceroot> dhiaeldeen: sudo apt-get install vlc
[12:40] <indus> including h 264
[12:40] <indus> HD
[12:40] <lulika> iceroot: do i need to reboot in between
[12:40] <Totenkopf> tj83__: No, virtualbox also now includes tools for use on a headless server
[12:40] <bob1> hdhiaeldeen try using a terminal
[12:40] <zvacet> lulika:  if you have separate home partition just install new version on top of old one to create separate home see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[12:40] <iceroot> lulika: for what?
[12:40] <darkpeter> anyone can help me ??
[12:40] <iceroot> lulika: ah for the upgrades? yes
[12:40] <lulika> iceroot: between 8.10 and 9.04
[12:40] <lulika> ok
[12:40] <iceroot> !ask | darkpeter
[12:41] <indus> darkpeter: ill try help
[12:41] <DexterLB> hello
[12:41] <DexterLB> I want to make S-Video work. I have an ATI Radeon 9600xt. I need the fglrx driver. But if I install it X doesn't start
[12:41] <iceroot> lulika: there a not few moments you have to reboot but a kernel-upgrade is one reason
[12:41] <dhiaeldeen> terminal = sudo apt-get install vlc
[12:41] <bob1> dhiaeldeen: jep
[12:41] <dhiaeldeen> gives error
[12:41] <tj83__> Totenkopf, i was not aware of that. I still think vmware-server is probably the best product for me to use. agree?
[12:41] <darkpeter> i've got that : resolution max in menu => 1024x768 but my screen can do 1280x1024
[12:41] <dhiaeldeen> jep = ?
[12:41] <indus> also hald init stuff etc
[12:41] <Totenkopf> tj83__: In that scenario, yes
[12:41] <zer0x> darkpeter: did you make that xorg.conf?
[12:41] <bob1> dhiaeldeen: what error ?
[12:42] <darkpeter> i've make a xorg.conf but not take in consideration
[12:42] <dhiaeldeen> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[12:42] <darkpeter> yep Zer0x
[12:42] <tj83__> Totenkopf, sipior thanks for all the help
[12:42] <DexterLB> aticonfig says "no suitable adapter found"
[12:42] <bob1> dhiaeldeen: typ sudo apt-get install vlx
[12:42] <zvacet> dhiaeldeen: system<admin<software sources and see if youm have all repos open
[12:42] <bob1> dhiaeldeen: vlc
[12:42] <zer0x> darkpeter: ok, so now you need to generate a modeline using 'gtf' then insert that into the monitor sections in xorg.conf
[12:42] <Halitech> DexterLB, what version of Ubuntu?
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> indus:  i dont rember. totem tryies to play it.. asks to dowload somthing.. it does. then i get audio but not video,, and then i rember to go install vlc or mplayer and then dump totem - thats  How it normally plays out when i do new installs.
[12:42] <DexterLB> Jaunty
[12:43] <testi_> MonoDevelop doesn't underline compile errors. How can I achieve that?
[12:43] <indus> Dr_Willis: maybe its an old habit, totem is really good at getting codecs
[12:43] <foo> Ubuntu server 9.04 seems to be hanging during install with no error. I go to "instal system" and it just hangs there with a blinking cursor, any ideas? Before it threw an error, but I fixed it with noapic.
[12:43] <dhiaeldeen> same error
[12:43] <DexterLB> I'm now downloading the linux x86 driver for this card from the official ati site
[12:43] <DexterLB> to see if it works
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> indus:  it did it on 9.10 just last week also.
[12:43] <indus> Dr_Willis: i think you should file a bug for this or it wont get any better
[12:43] <darkpeter> zer0x : i just put gtf in console ?
[12:43] <Halitech> DexterLB, 9.04 doesn't support using the ati driver so you only have the option of using the opensource driver which I don't know if it supports using the svideo connection
[12:43] <ubuntunewbie2> Anyone know how to fix font ? I did modified the font to segoe UI fonts , how to reset it to be default arial and Sans using command line ? I am having problem http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/9766/screenshotml0.png PLease help
[12:44] <indus> Dr_Willis: could you remember the codec?
[12:44] <der_martin> hi folks :)
[12:44] <zer0x> darkpeter: yup, e.g. gtf 1280 1024 60 for 1280x1024@60hz
[12:44] <DexterLB> no svideo with the opensource driver :(
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> indus:  nope. I dont even rember which video..  My video come from a varity of sources and could be most anything. :)
[12:44] <indus> Dr_Willis: sometimes totem fails, but on reopening with totem , it does grab it
[12:44] <Halitech> DexterLB, DON"T! trying to use the ati driver will break your system
[12:44] <DexterLB> ok
[12:44] <der_martin> can WICD remember my settings so that it reconnects to a hidden wireless network the next startup ?
[12:44] <meowbuntu> anyone here able to help me atm
[12:45] <indus> Halitech: why would it break ?
[12:45] <DexterLB> will it be supported in karmic?
[12:45] <der_martin> it currently doesn't
[12:45] <Halitech> DexterLB, ati dropped support for the card and xorg made changes which prevent the card from working
[12:45] <darkpeter> zer0x i've got that :   # 1280x1024 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 63.60 kHz; pclk: 108.88 MHz
[12:45] <darkpeter>   Modeline "1280x1024_60.00"  108.88  1280 1360 1496 1712  1024 1025 1028 1060  -HSync +Vsync
[12:45] <indus> Halitech: aah ok old card
[12:45] <der_martin> runnig WICD 1.6.1
[12:45] <Halitech> indus, it will break x
[12:45] <zvacet> Dr_Willis: look in synaptic>file>history to see witch codec you installed
[12:45] <DexterLB> only this card?
[12:45] <Halitech> DexterLB, maybe, maybe not, depends on how far the devs get with coding a new opensource driver
[12:45] <der_martin> googled a lot, but only the same problem, no solutions
[12:46] <meowbuntu> i am trying to folow a tutoral it has this line i need do this cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config
[12:46] <ubuntunewbie2> thank you
[12:46] <darkpeter> zer0x : where i put that ?
[12:46] <Halitech> DexterLB, ati dropped support for any card below the HD series
[12:46] <zer0x> darkpeter: ok, copy that, gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find the Monitor Section, and paste those lines just above the EndSection.. also..
[12:46] <DexterLB> omg
[12:46] <DexterLB> too bad
[12:46] <meowbuntu> anyone able to take a look at the tutoraL HERE http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=34557
[12:46] <indus> doesnt vlc require codec s?
[12:46] <theadmin> indus: It has them built-in :/
[12:46] <Pici> indus: vlc includes its own codecs
[12:46] <Halitech> indus, vlc has most of them built into the code somehow
[12:47] <DexterLB> ok can you recommend an NVidia videocard with a MINI-DIN 9 s-video output which will work with ubuntu?
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  look in the /boot directory. the config files do not follow that nameing scheme here.
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> mplayer installs a few more too
[12:47] <MixMix5> meowbuntu: type uname -r into a terminal, then replace 'uname -r' in  your command with the output
[12:47] <zer0x> darkpeter: you will also have to add the alias "1280x1024_60.00" into the Modes line of SubSection Display of Section Screen..
[12:47] <bob1> Just use exaile thats the best music player:P
[12:47] <indus> interesting, like ffmpeg for totem , vlc has their own implementation
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> oh wait uname -r does. :) i was thinking -a heh
[12:47] <meowbuntu> thanks
[12:47] <darkpeter> zer0x: can you say if my xorg.conf is good ?
[12:47] <zer0x> darkpeter: just put it on pastebin for me :D
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  `command` - in a command line runs a command then inserts the output into the command line.
[12:48] <darkpeter> ;)
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  like  echo `date`
[12:48] <darkpeter> zer0x :)

[12:50] <Halitech> DexterLB, personally I've seen that a few times but I think mixing interpid and jaunty repos to change the xorg packages is going to give some stability issues
[12:50] <Pici> MixMix5: no. sudo does not pass across any IO redirection or other shell operators.
[12:50] <DexterLB> yeah
[12:50] <DexterLB> i know that
[12:50] <DexterLB> I've broken my system several times because of that type of repo mixing
[12:50] <MixMix5> sipior: & Pici: thanks
[12:50] <FoolsRun> Hey, is there a quick-and-easy way to get Ubuntu set up on an ActiveDirectory or OpenDirectory domain? I've found a few howtos which are complicated --I thought there might be an app or something.
[12:51] <DexterLB> but another break won't hurt a lot anyway :D
[12:51] <darkpeter> zer0x : thanks for your help !!
[12:51] <iceroot> FoolsRun: ad-connector  (but only knew it from debian)
[12:52] <zer0x> darkpeter: actually, delete all of the Subsection "Displays" apart from the last one (24-bit) and replace its "1280x1024" with "1280x1024_60.00" just to force that mode only
[12:52] <zer0x> darkpeter: I have to go for lunch, if you have any problems just delete xorg.conf and you'll be back to normal, I'll be back later :D
[12:52] <uKill> si alguien necesita ayuda en español, aca estoy :)
[12:52] <bob1> does anyone have a program for downloading mp3s from youtube (in windows something like youtube converter )?
[12:52] <ubuntunewbie2> how to check fonts setting on ubuntu ???
[12:53] <ubuntunewbie2> please help
[12:53] <FoolsRun> iceroot: cool, I'll check that out
[12:53] <darkpeter> zer0x : i just have to restart X ??
[12:53] <darkpeter> zer0x : after that ?
[12:53] <bob1> ubuntunewbie2: just go to system then fist tab
[12:53] <uKill> darkpeter: yes, restart X
[12:53] <zer0x> darkpeter: if you get stuck whilst I'm away just google for some example xorg.conf files, yup you'll need to restart X :D Good luck, back in a while :D
[12:54] <darkpeter> zer0x : thanks :!:!
[12:54] <DexterLB> right
[12:54]  * DexterLB begins uninstalling X o.O
[12:54] <FoolsRun> iceroot: There's something in the Software Center called Likewise-Open. I guess that's similar.
[12:54] <bob1> ubuntunewbie2: there you can find how ubuntu must look
[12:54] <darkpeter> uKill : if my xorg.conf is in /etc/X11/, is ubuntu take it ?
[12:54] <iceroot> FoolsRun: i dont know
[12:57] <psypherman> Hi all! Where would I find the log files that show who has connected to my server?
[12:57] <StrangeCharm> how can i (indeed, can i) reconfigure an existing dm-crypt partition that is currently mounted with a passphrase, so that it is instead mounted with a keyfile?
[12:57] <Pici> psypherman: Connected in what way? ssh?
[12:57] <psypherman> nah, just http
[12:57] <darkpeter> THAT'S IT !!
[12:57] <psypherman> It must be somewhere in apache log files
[12:58] <psypherman> I need to see who has been connecting to my server ( web server via http )
[12:58] <psypherman> Any ideas on how one would go about that/
[12:58] <Pici> psypherman: /var/log/apache2/access.log
[12:58] <psypherman> yea, I looked there
[12:58] <foo> ubuntu server 7.04 is hanging on usbhid: v2.6:USB HID core driver, any ideas?
[12:59] <psypherman> However, it doesnt seem to be updating when I test it from a different network
[12:59] <Pici> psypherman: If you have different vhosts defined you may need to look into /var/log/apache2/other_vhosts_access.log
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> psypherman:  i often use the 'logwatch' program to scan/filter/analize  all the logs. :) its a handy tool.
[12:59] <Suikoden> how can i change my ip address to my own free domain?
[13:00] <psypherman> Nice!
[13:00] <psypherman> I cant wait to try
[13:00] <psypherman> Suikoden, goto no-ip.com
[13:00] <psypherman> YOu will need to install a dynamic DNS client
[13:00] <prometoys> hi, how can I change the color depth of xorg. is it possible to change it on the fly  (without restart)
[13:00] <Ozzy> Suikoden: which no-ip provide for free
[13:01] <psypherman> Nah its completely free
[13:01] <psypherman> Just register
[13:01] <prometoys> editing xorg.conf doesn't help anymore
[13:01] <psypherman> Are you setting up a home server Suikoden?
[13:02] <psypherman> Make sure your ip is static as well in /etc/networking/interfaces
[13:02] <ubuntunewbie2> bob1 : Sorry I mean listing font type at command line terminal
[13:02] <Ozzy> psypherman: the dynamic DNS client accounts for changing ips
[13:03] <bob1> ubuntunewbie2:  oh kinda that
[13:03] <MixMix> prometoys: System->Preferences->Display?
[13:03] <bob1> ubuntunewbie2:  just look in the terminal options
[13:03] <ubuntunewbie2> bob1 : how ?
[13:03] <ubuntunewbie2> bob1 : sorry I am new to ubuntu
[13:04] <bob1> ubuntunewbie2:  wait a sec
[13:04] <prometoys> MixMix: no, there is only screen resolution

[13:19] <th0r> foo: are you using a wireless mouse?
[13:19] <nic1> is there any tool to edit images on ubuntu?
[13:19] <NorwayGeek> is there a good spotlight alternative for Linux?
[13:20] <RLa> where can i find the list of packages on ubuntu dvd?
[13:20] <InDaLivingRoom> what do i do if my sound only crackles anymore?
[13:20] <RLa> lol, so many questions
[13:20] <RLa> nic1, try gimp
[13:20] <foo> th0r: nope. I did have a USB mouse connected, but I unplugged it
[13:20] <prometoys> Dr_Willis: but not color depth
[13:20] <foo> th0r: thakns
[13:20] <InDaLivingRoom> nic1: what sort of images?
[13:21] <Halitech> nic1, GIMP
[13:21] <foo> th0r: any other ideas? Been googling for a while now and can't seem to find any fix/workaround
[13:21] <RanDom33> can someone offer me some application suggestions for "website development" in ubuntu?
[13:21] <th0r> foo: the usbhid is the Human Interface Device driver....I don't think it should load unless you have a usb mouse plugged in, but it might be sensing the touchpad that way if it is a laptop
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> nic1: imagemagick is good too
[13:21] <RickX> Dr_Willis, I tried the url. VLC said unable to open MRL
[13:21] <LaveliDeara> how can I move all files and directories within a directory to another folder ?
[13:22] <foo> th0r: it's a desktop. dell dimension p4 3Ghz. I only have a USB keyboard connected, same problem
[13:22] <RickX> I am trying to find VLC's log to check for the precise errors.
[13:22] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: can you help me fix a crackling sound problem pls?
[13:22] <indus> RanDom33: website development, check out drupal joomla, plone
[13:22] <RanDom33> indus, thanks, i will look into those ;)
[13:22] <indus> RanDom33: those are content management systems, the backbone of many dynamic websites
[13:23] <th0r> foo: have you tried plugging in the keyboard AFTER booting?
[13:23] <indus> RanDom33: joomla of course very easy to learn use
[13:23] <th0r> foo: and I would, if possible, try a non-usb keyboard.
[13:24] <RanDom33> indus, initially i just need something for non dynamic basic html... but i will be needing an application similar to joomla later on.. so i appreciate that
[13:24] <foo> th0r: hm, ok, I think I have one of those laying around. *checks*
[13:24] <MixMix> remoteCTRL: try Volume Contorl->Switches and disabling the checkboxes
[13:25] <indus> RanDom33:dont forget php :)
[13:25] <remoteCTRL> MixMix: erm... actually i wanted to hear more not less...?
[13:26] <indus> MixMix: works ?
[13:26] <MixMix> indus: yes, but my sound volume is still low
[13:26] <indus> MixMix: actually modprobe command also works for reloading modules i think. or maybe its insmod
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> indus: modprobe loads modules, you can use modprobe -r to remove them
[13:27] <indus> ActionParsnip: thanks a lot
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> or rmmod
[13:27] <indus> wonder what insmod does then
[13:27] <tapas> ok, how to create filter rule in evolution?
[13:27] <kelli> anyone know of a good sound meter program?
[13:27] <tapas> the menu sucks sooo much :(

[13:28] <tapas> kelli: needs jackd though
[13:28] <chewey> Hey all. Is usb-creator.exe in the UNR .iso known to be broken?
[13:28] <indus> chewey: what you mean broken

[13:29] <th0r> foo: me too...linux usually handles older hw well. I had a similar problem once with a TI laptop and the fd driver.
[13:29] <th0r> foo: never did get it fixed
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> peace
[13:29] <francois><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[13:29] <foo> th0r: gah. uh, I guess I can try to enable the floppy disk drive and see if that works
[13:30] <foo> francois: ?
[13:30] <indus> chewey: hmm that sounds like a hardware issue
[13:30] <indus> chewey: did you click on other?
[13:30] <chewey> indus: Nope. Used to work with eralier versions. And I can use other software to generate bootable sticks.
[13:30] <crescendo> I'm looking to boot one of my harddisks inside a virtual environment, but vmware-server looks too fat. Suggestions?  Qemu, Virtualbox?
[13:30] <indus> chewey: sorry, what is that 29 gb device

[13:31] <nic1> i need to get a part of image using gimp, i have taken a rectangular selector and how can select and get only that required part?
[13:31] <indus> chewey: unetbootin is good for creating iso's and it has both windows and linux versions
[13:31] <chewey> That's a workaround, but not a solution.
[13:31] <padi999> I have a file called "-al ???????????????
[13:31] <padi999> and I can't delete it
[13:31] <padi999> it tells me: -- a  unknown option
[13:31] <bob1> chewey: you can download the iso with unetbootin
[13:31] <indus> chewey: well, then file a bug, i dont know how this can be solved
[13:31] <kristjan> Hello, could someone help me please? I'm getting the "Video mode not supported" error at bootup. The solution should lie in the monitor HZ which I should be able to change through xorg.conf but there's nothing there.
[13:32] <padi999> How can I delete a file, that is called -al ???????????????
[13:32] <meowbuntu>  i neet a terminal command that will display all my video card info so i dont remove anthing i need
[13:32] <indus> kristjan: use recovery mode, then run a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[13:32] <sqip> hi! i have use ubuntu now in one week i like it, but got two problem on it... 1: a file in /host/ubuntu/disks "root.disk" is 16,4 gb 2: got some error when i shout down or restart ubuntu so i need to hold the power buttum to shout it down.
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> padi999: rm "-al"  maybe
[13:32] <schmelzs> hi all
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> padi999: might need to escape the - instead
[13:33] <th0r> padi999: or maybe 'rm ?al'  ???
[13:33] <bob1> meowbuntu: use google to find a tutorial
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> padi999: rm \-al
[13:33] <Pici> !google | bob1
[13:33] <kristjan> indus, that's ctrl+alt+f1, right?
[13:33] <DannyButterman> does some knows why a vtun client suddenly refuses to connect (111) ?
[13:33] <foo> th0r: hm, ok, I enabled the floppy disk and now it's hanging at input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input1. this is shocking
[13:33] <meowbuntu> google-fu what is that
[13:33] <bob1> ubottu: oke then
[13:34] <padi999> ActionParsnip: th0r: The questionmarks are part of the filename, your ideas give me the same output: invalid option -- 'a'
[13:34] <padi999> -al �^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?^?
[13:34] <padi999> is the name
[13:34] <th0r> foo: I would suspect a hw problem at this point...too many failures going on
[13:35] <th0r> padi999: that is a corrupted file. Try something like mc
[13:35] <schmelzs> i'm interested in how rights management with dbus, hal, .. works under ubuntu (e.g. mounting, sound, ..) - could you give me a hint where to start reading?
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> padi999: do you have a gui file manager/
[13:35] <foo> th0r: hm, this system was given to me. what kind of HW failure would yuo expect it to be?
[13:35] <E3b> when 9.10 will release?
[13:35] <padi999> ActionParsnip: also, yes, eg. konqueror
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> padi999: i'm guessig its no good there
[13:36] <padi999> th0r: what is mc
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> !mc
[13:36] <vecKt> i'm having problems: i have a disk which i want to format to fat32 (so i can transfer some files to windows).. i try to format it in ubuntu (in gparted) and it returns: "mkdosfs -F32 -v -n "" /fev/sdb1" "mkdosfd_ unable to open /dev/sdb1
[13:36] <vecKt> but if i try "fdisk -u /dev/sdb" or "fdisk -u /dev/sdb1
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> !info mc
[13:36] <padi999> ah
[13:36] <vecKt> it also returns an error "unable to open"
[13:36] <vecKt> and idea?
[13:36] <th0r> padi999: midnight commander...a file manager that runs in a terminal. I use it to handle issues like yours. It is a small install and part of my initial installation all the time
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> vecKt: is the partition you want to manipulate, mounted?
[13:37] <vecKt> ActionParsnip: nope, it's not mounted
[13:37] <sqip> hi! i got one file in /host/ubuntu/disks "root.disk" who is 16,4 gb anyone know how to make it smaler?
[13:37] <padi999> th0r: well, obviously the file is corrupted and I can't delete it and I guess, also a gui doesn't change anything because it uses the same atomar functions/programs like mv or rm
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> vecKt: ok have you tried mkfs.vfat instead of mkdosfs
[13:37] <vecKt> ActionParsnip: it was formated in fedora, so it's got the strange lvm on.... but not mounted...
[13:38] <th0r> padi999: you might try    rm '?al*' but I would go to mc first and try it that way. I always hate to use a * wildard with rm
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> vecKt: can you not manipulate it in: gksudo gparted
[13:39] <MixMix> try ls insted of rm to see what it will delete
[13:39] <padi999> th0r: ActionParsnip: mc worked!
[13:39] <th0r> padi999: I have my moments
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> padi999: nice one, good suggestion th0r
[13:39] <kristjan> indus, I went to the console (?) (ctrl+alt+f1) and typed "dpkg -reconfigure xserver -xorg" but nothing happened.
[13:40] <vecKt>  ActionParsnip: gksudo gparted also returns an error
[13:40] <EagleScreen> it is gksu
[13:40] <EagleScreen> gksu gparted
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> EagleScreen: andy@fileserver:~$ file `which gksudo`           /usr/bin/gksudo: symbolic link to `gksu'
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> EagleScreen: tey are one and the same thing
[13:41] <vecKt> EagleScreen: gksu gparted doesn't work!
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> vecKt: it wouldnt if gksudo didnt
[13:41] <vecKt> yep
[13:42] <EagleScreen> vecKt: what happens if you run "sudo gparted" from terminal?
[13:42] <vecKt> EagleScreen: gparted opens :)
[13:42] <cristi_> Halitech: testdisk couldn't recover a single partition, but photorec got most of my stuff back! i'm sooo donating!! Thanks for the great suggestion. I spent days on trying to look for file headers in the hexamess myself...
[13:42] <vecKt> i'll try to format it in ext
[13:43] <kristjan> Hello, could someone help me please? I'm getting the "Video mode not supported" error at bootup. The solution should lie in the monitor HZ which I should be able to change through xorg.conf but there's nothing there.
[13:43] <naftilos76> hi everyone, how can i batch rename all files having an ext of '.JPG' to '.jpg' with the command rename? I tried but got an error message: 'Bareword "JPG" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.'
[13:43] <kristjan> I tried to go to the console and type "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but that didn't work. : /
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> naftilos76:  theres other renaming tools in the repos that can do that. I think one is called 'prefix, or sufix'
[13:43] <naftilos76> thnks!
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> naftilos76:  or there examples ive seen on the web. I dont rember the sntax off hand

[13:48] <tyler_d> :(
[13:49] <kristjan> Uhm, so what do you want to know iceroot? : /
[13:49] <iceroot> kristjan: what about errors?
[13:49] <NerveClasp> Hi! is there some special "sound" room where I can ask questions concerning sound cards issues?
[13:49] <sqip> Dr_Willis it is a file in /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk
[13:49] <iceroot> NerveClasp: if it are problems with ubuntu and sound and not karmic, this is a good place
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> sqip:  ive never seen or heard of a /host/ directory.  or a root.disk file
[13:50] <NerveClasp> oh(( I forgot.. karmic is #ubuntu+1?
[13:50] <iceroot> NerveClasp: correct
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> NerveClasp:  for a few more days yes, :)
[13:51] <sqip> filesystem/host...
[13:51] <NerveClasp> 10x=)
[13:51] <ks3_> sqip: Is this some type of virtual machine setup?
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> sqip:  perhaps you should give more details on why you are looking for this file.
[13:52] <Dr_Willis> and where you even heard of it from
[13:52] <sqip> i have no ide... i install ubuntu from widows... and the file i talking about is 16,4 gb... so somting most bee wrong
[13:53] <kristjan1> It said...dpkg: conflicting actions -e & -r
[13:54] <kristjan1> If that's what you wanted to know iceroot.
[13:54] <Italian_Plumber> to install a GUI on a headless server, I just type "sudo apt-get install gdm"?
[13:55] <joaopinto> Italian_Plumber, no, that's just the login manager, install ubuntu-desktop for a full Ubuntu install
[13:56] <kristjan> My LCD doesn't work, it says "Video mode not supported" (probably too high Hz). When I tried to do dpkg -reconfigure xserver -xorg in console it said dpkg: conflicting actions -e & -r
[13:56] <kristjan> Any help please?
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> Italian_Plumber:  for the full gnome desktop install 'ubuntu-desktop'
[13:57] <tyler_d> kristjan: you can backup your xorg.conf and bounce it
[13:57] <trumpen> kristjan, use dpkg-reconfigure and not "dpkg -reconfigure"
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> sqip:  You perhaps are refering to the WUBI  image of ubuntu that it put on the windows drive?
[13:58] <kristjan> So... dpkg-reconfigure xserver -xorg?
[13:58] <sqip> no i got the image in a usb disk
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> kristjan:  i think its xserver-org
[13:59] <Italian_Plumber> so "Ubuntu-desktop" instead of, or in addition to, "gdm"?
[13:59] <kristjan> Will try.
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> kristjan:  ya got an extra space in there and its thinking the -xorg is a option not a name perhaps
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> Italian_Plumber:  ubuntu-desktop is the FULL ubuntu desktop system. it will include gdm
[13:59] <jure> how do I list all commands in a terminal containing a string?
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> jure:  try the apropos command
[14:00] <petsounds> hello. how can i enabling/disabling wi-fi on ubuntu? thank you
[14:01] <om26er> petsounds: right click on network manager and disable
[14:01] <draginx> Any ideas why my broadcom chip can see the wireless access points, it can try to connect to my wireless router, but even with the right settings (WEP-128) and the correct password/SSID, it still cant connect (just gives me the password prompt again)
[14:02] <pamela_> list
[14:02] <`3mendo> re
[14:02] <petsounds> om26er : there are no options like youve said. im sorry
[14:02] <pamela_> salve
[14:02] <pamela_> !list
[14:03] <ks3> petsounds: Is your wireless card recognized? If so, you should have a checkbox for "Enable wireless" when you right click on Network Manager
[14:03] <blendmaster1024> what the heck are udebs!?!?
[14:03] <genii> !it | pamela
[14:03] <th0r> draginx: make sure it isn't an upper/lower case issue
[14:03] <draginx> th0r, the password just contains numbers
[14:04] <draginx> :P
[14:04] <draginx> and the ssid is the same case
[14:04] <`3mendo> Hi every one! just an information I had a problem with one plugin in compiz so I had no choiche to let the desktop work I reset compiz by typing few comand line, since that time all went back to ormal part the fact I can't maxmize and reduce and close because the bars in every windows and all the rest are missing what I can do ?? in advance thanks
[14:04] <petsounds> ks3 : im using eee pc 1000HE and right now im on ethernet. the wi-fi lights still turning on. :)
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: in ccsm enable window decorators
[14:04] <th0r> draginx: for what it is worth...I always had problems with WEP and WPA. at home I use MAC address filtering instead and avoid the headache <smile>
[14:04] <draginx> th0r, Im on ubuntu 8.10 if that helps
[14:05] <draginx> th0r, yeah my friends crappy IBM pc can only do WEP
[14:05] <`3mendo> ccsm ?? what is ?? :D
[14:05] <CoUrPsE> Anyone can help me get my mysql running? its not logged, syslogd aint logging nothing either.
[14:05] <Dr_Willis> !ccsm
[14:05] <sqip> is it any command who can check and repair files?
[14:05] <blendmaster1024> ActionParsnip: i think he has a problem with his graphics card. `3mendo what graphics card do you have?
[14:05] <jure> how do I launch the gnome trash applet via terminal ?
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> blendmaster1024: bets its nvidia
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> !trash | jure
[14:06] <ks3> petsounds: But when you right click on Network Manager, you don't see the "Enable Wireless" option?
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> sqip:  'fsck' but you may want to go into details of your exact problem and what you are trying to accomplish.
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> !fsck | sqip
[14:07] <sqip> okej thx
[14:07] <petsounds> ks3 : im afraid no there's only enable networking options.
[14:07] <jure> ActionParsnip: i'm not looking for the location. i'm looking for the command that launches the gnome trash applet.
[14:07] <DexterLB> right
[14:07] <`3mendo> blendmaster1024,  he worked fine, I just put the wrong plugs is in compiz, so I reseted by typing this comand line: rm -rf ~/.compiz
[14:07] <`3mendo> rm -f /usr/local/bin/compiz
[14:07] <`3mendo> rm -rf /usr/local/lib/{compiz,libdecoration}*
[14:07] <`3mendo> gconftool-2 --shutdown
[14:07] <`3mendo> gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz since that all worked back to normal part that I don't have the windows bars anymore
[14:07] <FloodBot2> `3mendo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:07] <DexterLB> now fglrx and s-video are working
[14:07] <ks3> petsounds: Then it sounds like your wireless card isn't recognized, or isn't recognized properly
[14:07] <DexterLB> only two problems:
[14:08] <petsounds> ks3 : is there sth i should do?
[14:08] <DexterLB> 1. The packages I've set to 'lock version' in synaptic still want to upgrade if I issue an aptitude upgrade command
[14:08] <kristjan> Okay, so I'm configuring the xserver-xorg through the console and it wanted me to add the "Keyboard options:" which I left blank as the disclaimer advised before. However now it reopened part of the console (else it was blue screen and so) and I don't know what should I do.
[14:10] <`3mendo> ActionParsnip,  I activated the windows decoration from compiz config  nothing changed
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: could install emerald and run:   emerald --replace
[14:10] <jure> ah, got it. It's "nautilus trash:".
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> jure: nice
[14:11] <ks3> petsounds: Not too familiar with the 1000HE. If wireless is enabled on the system, perhaps there's an additional driver that needs installed to get it working.
[14:11] <`3mendo> ActionParsnip,  also for move the any windows I have to press alt first, ActionParsnip  is really necessary install emerald ??  because  should work I don't know what I did wrong
[14:11] <`3mendo> I  also paste the command line that I typed
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: its an option
[14:12] <petsounds> ks3 : ok thanks.
[14:12] <petsounds> anybody?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> jure: that command just seems to open the trash folder here
[14:13] <ks3> petsounds: Not sure if this is the same, but here's someone's blog post about getting wireless working on the 1000HE - http://blog.sidewaysmilk.com/?p=16
[14:13] <`3mendo> ActionParsnip,  any other subjestion ? :D sound strange that is not working anymore, I don't think I deleted something wrong
[14:13] <DexterLB> so how do I lock a package version so that aptitude doesn't upgrade it?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: i think you did, the conf lines werent needed really, just removal of ~/.compiz would have sufficed
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: i'd use emerald personally
[14:14] <petsounds> ks3 : ill have a look. merci beaucoup
[14:14] <`3mendo> umm.. so you think if I reinstall the the themes should be back to normal ??
[14:14] <godfather> hi
[14:15] <julio> hi
[14:15] <julio> some one speack spanish?
[14:15] <godfather> my resolv.conf its modified everytime i reboot

[14:15] <ActionParsnip> !es | julio
[14:15] <julio> algien habla español?
[14:15] <godfather> julio, me
[14:15] <jure> ActionParsnip: there's a difference between launching 'nautilus trash:' and 'nautilus ~/.local/share/Trash'. with the first one, you get additional options to empty trash, restore files, or delete them permanently. this is important (to me).
[14:15] <erUSUL> !pinning | DexterLB
[14:16] <julio> hi
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: doubt it, you need the gconf bit that has turned off your decorators, either that or you have an nvidia video card and need some lines in xorg.conf
[14:16] <godfather> My resolv.conf changes evertime i reboot, i have to change it manually, but then, when i reboot it changes. i tried to change the permisions with no succed, any idea?

[14:16] <julio> thanks

[14:18] <hylman> anybody can help me with compiling
[14:18] <DannyButterman> is there someone here who know Vtun ?
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: not sure, if you use a compositng WM like compiz you can run emerald and have any theme for windows decorations you can use
[14:18] <godfather> in the network manager i cant choose one
[14:18] <beruchtigte> erUSUL: thx
[14:18] <DannyButterman> Vtun is a vpn client/server
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: could ask in #compiz

[14:24] <Pici> ActionParsnip: Those sort of comments aren't needed here.

[14:25] <RanDom33> ActionParsnip, thanks
[14:25] <sobczyk> godfather: just remember when you want to change the file you neet to clean the 'i' flag
[14:25] <sobczyk> godfather: yes that should do it
[14:25] <godfather> sobczyk, i reboot
[14:25] <godfather> and test it
[14:25] <sobczyk> godfather: though now nothing can change that file unless you clean the i flag
[14:26] <godfather> ok, i test, 1 minut

[14:27] <wbc> My laptop disconnects from the AP about every 2 or 3 hours, why is it so?
[14:27] <`3mendo> ActionParsnip,  no body answer :( do you think if somebody pass me the files I can be able to get that funcion working again ??
[14:27] <Guest87293> hi everyone
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> satya: i know, ive been asking you for information but its not being forthcoming
[14:28] <satya> ActionParsnip: what q?
[14:28] <tapas> erUSUL: ok, looking it up
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> satya: go to http://pastebin.com
[14:28] <wbc> My laptop disconnects from the AP about every 2 or 3 hours, why is it so?
[14:28] <godfather> sobczyk, nice job, now works, ty
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> satya: run this command and put the output on that site
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> satya: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> satya: when you click paste, the page will change, i need the address of the new page
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: sudo apt-get install emerald
[14:29] <sobczyk> godfather: write down the i flag thing, it caused me a lot of headaches when I wanted to change the file and forgot about clearing the flag
[14:29] <satya> ActionParsnip: ok
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> `3mendo: then press alt+f2    and run:   emerald --replace
[14:30] <godfather> sobczyk, i will remember it
[14:30] <godfather> dont worry
[14:30] <tapas> erUSUL: i wanted to do it within evolution so i don't have to talk to my lazy ass sysadmins to install any additional programs ;)
[14:30] <DexterLB> right, I held all packages that mustn't upgrade with echo 'pkgname hold' | dpkg --set-selections.
[14:30] <DexterLB> will this keep them from upgrading even if I do a dist-upgrade to karmic when it's released?
[14:30] <tapas> it seems filters generally don't work in evolution for mails stored in an imap account
[14:30] <tapas> bugger..
[14:30] <Pici> ActionParsnip: Er, I'm pretty sure that emerald isn't supported any longer.
[14:30] <tapas> so i can't sort my SVN commit mails out into an extra folder..
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> !emerald
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> bah
[14:31] <Italian_Plumber> what's the minimum specs for Karmic?
[14:31] <satya> ActionParsnip: can u give some links where i can solve my probs?
[14:31] <wbc> My laptop disconnects from the AP about every 2 or 3 hours, why is it so?
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> satya: sure, as soon as you give me the pastebin link
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> wbc: dhcp lease maybe
[14:32] <tapas> erUSUL: erm, i was wrong, there's actually an account specific option in evolution to enable the filtering
[14:32] <godfather> another question, i have a router (<IP_ADDRESS>) and another router (<IP_ADDRESS>) connected as a client to the 1st router, just the first router have inet, can i port forwarding to the 2ond router?
[14:32] <satya> ActionParsnip: i have no idea abt this pastebin link
[14:32] <godfather> they are or diferents subnets as you see
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> satya: you ran the command, right?
[14:32] <wbc> ActionParsnip: How may I fix it?
[14:33] <satya> ActionParsnip: yes
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> wbc: increase lease, use static ip
[14:33] <godfather> sobczyk, any idea about that?
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> satya: and you got some output, you need to copy that text to the pastebin link: http://pastebin.com
[14:33] <wbc> ActionParsnip: That is done in the AP web gui, right?
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> wbc: should be
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> satya: paste the text and write your name in the little box then click paste, the page will then change
[14:34] <CShadowRun> Trying to install ubuntu netbook remix on an Acer Aspire One, i end up with a corrupted display, followed by blackness. Suggestions?
[14:34] <wbc> ActionParsnip: Well, the actual problem is that the AP totally turns off
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> satya: once its changed you will have an address in the address bar of your browser, copy that and paste it in here

[14:36] <Slart> Psinetic: or dns is totally messed up
[14:38] <Psinetic> nothing is set to proxy

[14:47] <cognitiaclaeves> Recently, Jaunty seems to have stopped being able to recognize the <ctrl> key.  When I first installed ( and then for a while afterward ), I could lock my screen with <ctrl><alt>L, but after a while, this stopped working.  Now I need this ability back.  ( I am trying to manage a VMware ESX session inside of a VirtualBox Windows VM ).
[14:48] <FoolsRun> Question: I'm setting up LTSP for fun and need to remove it when I'm finished. Is removing it as simple as apt-get remove -ing the packages and deleting /opt/ltsp ?

[14:59] <satya> psywiped: n for video?
[15:00] <psywiped> was it working before satya
[15:00] <grawity> psywiped: Pidgin does not support video for Yahoo. (Only for Google Talk.)
[15:00] <satya> psywiped: yes i worked on ubuntu8.04
[15:00] <satya> it*
[15:01] <sccolbert> any networking experts here?
[15:01] <satya> psywiped: ??????
[15:02] <mgolisch> no
[15:02] <EagleScreen> what a networking expert is?
[15:02] <sccolbert> someone that is an expert with the ubuntu network internals
[15:02] <mgolisch> an expert in networkering..right?
[15:03] <mgolisch> maybe just ask your question
[15:03] <sccolbert> does anyone have any idea what would cause sftp and scp to stall on a file transfer after a few megs? the transfer is from Ubuntu 9.04 x64 desktop to the same version of Ubuntu Server
[15:05] <hateball> sccolbert: in the LAN? over internet? etc etc
[15:05] <blueglasses> sccolbert, it probably happens because your server is limiting the size of transfered files
[15:06] <sccolbert> over the internet
[15:06] <sccolbert> blueglasses: going from my desktop to my linode server
[15:06] <mgolisch> it stalls completely?
[15:06] <sccolbert> mgolisch: completely stalls after about 7 megs
[15:06] <sccolbert> blueglasses: it stops at a different ammount every time
[15:07] <blueglasses> sccolbert, check your ftp configuration file for size (do a search)
[15:07] <cognitiaclaeves> nvm.  Seems that choosing the option to show the mouse pointer's location when holding pressing ctrl key swallows the key when pressed, interfering with every other use of the key: locking the screen, using the right ctrl for virtual box, and using ctrl-shift combos with VMware ESX within VirtualBox.
[15:07] <sccolbert> blueglasses: sometime it will take 2, sometime 14
[15:08] <blueglasses> sccolbert, also check your router filters
[15:09] <fabuloso> hi
[15:09] <sccolbert> blueglasses: could it be a router issue? i have no access to the router (student dorm)... but ftp to my dreamhost box works fine...
[15:10] <pawel> why after reboot my shortcutes on deskop are unable to open and additionally i lost all the music library - program needs to search for music again
[15:10] <fabuloso> is there some way to grab files from an sftp server? maybe like w get?
[15:10] <blueglasses> sccolbert,  yes, it could be the router limiting your upload
[15:10] <Pici> fabuloso: curl
[15:10] <raid0> hello loves
[15:11] <mgolisch> sftp ?
[15:11] <mgolisch> it supports batch processing
[15:11] <smgomes> hi
[15:11] <fabuloso> thanks
[15:12] <mgolisch> blueglasses: very unlikely, sftp traffic is encrypted, the router cant see anything of that
[15:12] <pawel> why after reboot my shortcutes on deskop are unable to open and additionally i lost all the music library - program needs to search for music again
[15:12] <blueglasses> sccolbert, sftp uses a specific port, wich can be filtered by the router
[15:12] <mgolisch> pawel: why dont they open? whats the error message?
[15:12] <craigbass1976> I've installed java, and it works, but typing java -version gives me nothing.  I needed older java, so grabbed off the sun site a jdk-1_5_0_20-linux-i586.bin, ran it in /usr/local and did an ln -s /usr/local/jdk-1_5_0_20-linux-i586.bin /usr/java  Is there something I need to do to my .bash_profile  ?
[15:12] <mgolisch> it uses 22(ssh)
[15:13] <blueglasses> sccolbert, try changing the port on the server
[15:13] <sccolbert> blueglasses: how do i do that?
[15:13] <mgolisch> edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config i asume
[15:13] <pawel> i ve already deleted shortcutes , dont remember, need a while tocheck it again
[15:13] <blueglasses> sccolbert, you edit the sftpd configuration file
[15:14] <fbianconi> craigbass1976: the *.bin file is an installer, you need to run it
[15:14] <grawity> blueglasses: There is no "sftpd configuration file".
[15:14] <grawity> blueglasses: Only sshd.
[15:15] <sccolbert> is there a suggested port I use?
[15:15] <sccolbert> what is the default for standard ftp?
[15:15] <grawity> FTP is unrelated.
[15:15] <sccolbert> cause that works on a different box
[15:15] <blueglasses> grawity, ok, maybe you can help sccolbert
[15:15] <fasta> Where is the official documentation for the use of Pinning? I found a howto, but it only specifies it for older releases. It probably still works the same, though.
[15:15] <fbianconi> craigbass1976: as root if you can and trust sun
[15:15] <grawity> But, FTP uses port 21 for control connection and randomly chosen ports for data connections.
[15:16] <grawity> SFTP, like SSH, uses port 22 for everything.
[15:16] <blueglasses> !sftp
[15:16] <pawel> 'cannot open location ...'
[15:16] <sccolbert> grawity: thanks, should i just choose a port in the private range? like 45000 or something?
[15:16] <pawel> no such file or directory
[15:16] <grawity> sccolbert: Instead of using port 22?
[15:17] <sccolbert> grawity: yes
[15:17] <grawity> sccolbert: I see no need for that... but you can try if you want.
[15:17] <jure> how do i add the volume control applet icon back to the system tray?
[15:17] <craigbass1976> fbianconi, I did run it; it's all installed and I'm running the app I needed the older java for, but there's no java in my $PATH.  I thought once upon a time I had to do something to the profile, but can't remember what it was
[15:17] <arthas_dk> hello greate ones
[15:17] <sccolbert> grawity: do you have any other idea why my sftp or scp transfers would stall, but not the ftp xfers to another box
[15:18] <blueglasses> jure, rightclick add on the bar
[15:18] <arthas_dk> where's the link for the Karmic Koala (final version)?
[15:18] <craigbass1976> fbianconi, I haven't done this since fedora2...
[15:18] <Pici> arthas_dk: Its not released yet.
[15:19] <blueglasses> sccolbert, you should check your logs
[15:19] <fbianconi> craigbass1976: check the exit of the command 'which java' installer should have done it for you
[15:19] <blueglasses> sccolbert, logs are the best place to find origin for errors
[15:20] <craigbass1976> fbianconi, nothing
[15:20] <jure> you mean 'add to panel'? did that. i see no volume control..
[15:20] <craigbass1976> fbianconi, do I need to make another link in /usr/bin ?
[15:20] <sccolbert> which logs should i look at?
[15:20] <EagleScreen> arthas_dk: are you hurry to get 9.10? you may use daily build of installer CD
[15:21] <arthas_dk> anyone know about 'hidden' karmic koala link (final version)?
[15:21] <arthas_dk> :D
[15:21] <anarki2004> trying to set up a system for dual boot. Grub has given me error 18, except from what I look up online, i've done what I needed to.
[15:21] <LjL> arthas_dk: conspiracy theories much? there's no "hidden" link. there's currently a release candidate, which, like the name says, will *probably* be exactly the same as the final version - unless problems arise.
[15:21] <blueglasses> arthas_dk, thats only a rummor, you shouldn trust
[15:21] <anarki2004> any help?
[15:22] <jure> blueglasses, you mean 'add to panel'? did that. i see no volume control..
[15:22] <leaf-sheep> arthas_dk: Google "Ubuntu Karmic Koala Daily"  That's the latest version!
[15:22] <ltcabral> is there an script to add automatically an url to synaptic repository?
[15:22] <fbianconi> craigbass1976: my guess is that you should add bin folder, under sun's both jdk and jre, to the path
[15:22] <draconis> jure: there is no mixer applet
[15:22] <arthas_dk> on some times (7.04) the link was made 2 days before the official release announcement ...
[15:23] <lucamm> anyoone installed ubuntu-netbook en karmic?
[15:23] <Pici> arthas_dk: Also, further 9.10 questions should be directed to #ubuntu+1
[15:23] <pawel> every time when i reboot i lost all my music library and the shortcutes on the deskop do not work- there is an error that there is no such file or directory
[15:23] <Pici> lucamm: #ubuntu+1 please
[15:23] <blueglasses> jure, try System, sound preferences
[15:23] <lucamm> Pici, ok thanks
[15:23] <grawity> ltcabral: echo "deb blah blah" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[15:23] <arthas_dk> thanks
[15:23] <ltcabral> grawity: thanks
[15:24] <draconis> blueglasses: jure: noe, that's only good for Pulseaudio
[15:24] <jure> blueglasses, there *is* no Sound Preferences
[15:24] <draconis> *note
[15:24] <blueglasses> jure, on System menu, preferences, sound?
[15:24] <om26er1> arthas_dk: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20091026.2/karmic-desktop-i386.iso
[15:24] <jure> nope. nothing with sound, blueglasses.
[15:25] <jure> although i can still increase/decrease volume and hear everything perfectly and alsamixer works in terminal.
[15:25] <blueglasses> jure, wich version of ubuntu are you using?
[15:25] <jure> 9.10?
[15:25] <ltcabral> grawity: adding those _jaunty_ and _multiverse_  parameters are a must?
[15:25] <blueglasses> jure, go to #ubuntu+1
[15:25] <jure> will do, thanks.
[15:25] <grawity> ltcabral: I don't know... it all depends on _which_ URL are you adding.
[15:26] <grawity> ltcabral: 'multiverse' is only for official Ubuntu repositories, I think...
[15:26] <ltcabral> grawity: its just some applications developed by my company
[15:26] <anarki2004> so I guess people don't like messing with dual boot in here?
[15:26] <leaf-sheep> !dualboot | anarki2004
[15:26] <anarki2004> yeah, that is probably useless
[15:27] <anarki2004> but I'll take a look
[15:27] <jhattara> i guess my secondary hard drive is permanently dead as the computer refused to power up, or even enter bios, with it attached
[15:27] <EagleScreen> between milestones I think daily (alternate) is better then daily live
[15:27] <Pici> !karmic
[15:27] <szilvi> hello
[15:27] <steveccc> hi all - anyone got 9.10 rc installed and is it a dramatic improvement over the last or just a little polish?
[15:27] <Pici> steveccc : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[15:27] <iceroot> steveccc: #ubuntu+1
[15:28] <steveccc> sorry all
[15:28] <szilvi> it's great i have it installed, i'm using it... it's a "dramatic polish"
[15:28] <craigbass1976> fbianconi, add bin folder...  What do you mean?  I checked, and there is already a link in /usr/bin called java that points to /usr/java (which is itself a link that points to /usr/local/jdk1...)
[15:29] <gorship> so im getting a few errors when i start up, anyone around to pm me and go through them :)
[15:29] <gorship> i believe they are all connected

 : try to install madwifi drivers manually
[15:31] <joaopinto> mikebl, the atheros drivers are not in good shape

 : just search on the ubuntu forums you'll find the solution
[15:32] <joaopinto> mikebl, http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download
[15:32] <gorship> i used envyng to install my nvidia driver but im still getting low resolution warnings, greeting errors and server x errors when i start up... do i need to use the driver manager to activate it and turn off server x?
[15:32] <joaopinto> or wait for karmic, it comes with the newer drivers, for the first time I had ahteros working out of the box
[15:33] <om26er1> karmic is stable and can be used

[15:33] <Gizmo> Hi. If i wanted to read a fairly comprehensive list of changes between Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04, where would I find it? Is there a link that would take me to it?
[15:34] <gorship> check wiki out gizmo
[15:34] <gorship> wiki ubuntu and it should come up with all the latest
[15:34] <joaopinto> Gizmo, you would need to read the release notes for ubuntu 9.04
[15:34] <anarki2004> this page seems to be more directed at Vista dual boots
[15:34] <pha> hey guys - just a quick question - any help would be greatly appreciated - how do you add/mount a hdd?
[15:34] <stachu_> siema
[15:34] <Gizmo> anarki2004: aren't they usually quite general though? I am thinking specific functions etc
[15:35] <anarki2004> it refers to a set of files in vista, i'm not sure if they exist in xp
[15:35] <om26er1> Gizmo: here are the changes in 9.10: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910overview
[15:35] <anarki2004> or if its saying xp has them and vista doesn't
[15:35] <blueglasses> anyone using google wave here?

[15:36] <om26er1> blueglasses: good question.
[15:36] <pha> how do you add/mount a hdd?
[15:36] <gorship> i installed my nvidia driver with envy... do i still need to activate it through the system -> preferences -> driver...?
[15:36] <Gizmo> om26er1: as I say, thats an overview
[15:36] <mikebl_> how do i get ath5k on jaunty?
[15:36] <anarki2004> make sure it is there inside of gparted first
[15:36] <om26er1> Gizmo: changes are writter
[15:36] <anarki2004> or i know there's a command line that will display it
[15:36] <om26er1> written
[15:36] <Gizmo> om26er1: I need to look at specific code changes between the two versions
[15:37] <anarki2004> seriously though

[15:43] <Tiders-> pawel Yes you do it through the terminal
[15:44] <grawity> pawel: Whatever way you like. You do know how to edit text files?
