[09:52] <d6chung> hkBst: Hold on... for some reason the GRUB menu is not appearing. I'm either too slow or I'm hitting the wrong key. Isn't it Esc?
[09:52] <Dr_Willis> d6chung:  try shift
[09:53] <d6chung> Dr_Willis: It looks like that worked, thanks. I'm going to boot with acpi=off and change some GRUB settings... then resume hkBst's tests.
[09:55] <lao5> is here any Chinese?
[09:55] <dyek> Hi! I built Ubuntu Linux kernel from the source package: "apt-get source linux-image-2.6.31-20-generic". I'm getting arch/x86/boot/bzImage file. Is there a way I can generate the .deb package from the build? When I run dpkg-buildpackage, I got "dpkg-source: error: cannot represent change to linux-2.6.31/drivers/...: binary file contents changed". I don't want to generate another source package, just the .deb package.

[09:56] <lao5> fine
[09:57] <zaratustra1> I heard the 9.10 has grub 2 ; first is it true ? second, in case it is:
[09:57] <zaratustra1> is it safe to install with ubuntu 9.10 on a machine which runs fedora ?
[09:57] <diddy> Why is the open office program "base" not installed after I install oo.org ?
[09:57] <zaratustra1> I mean: is the grub2 is safe an will not cause any troubles?
[09:58] <zaratustra1> I tried dual boot with 9.0.4 and fedora and it was ok
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> theres alwyas possibilites for problems
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> it pays to  Know your grub
[09:59] <fuge> Is it possible to replace the newer kernel (2.6.31-20-generic) with an older one? For example 2.6.28-15-generic from 9.04. (I have both OS on different disks.)
[09:59] <brjann> diddy: it looks like base is an optional component. it's found in the package openoffice.org-base, which you can install with synaptic, apt-get, aptitude, etc
[09:59] <diddy> brjann, thx
[10:00] <dyek> Dr_Willis: Thanks for the kernel compile page!
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> We aim to please
[10:01] <overmind> Does anyone know how to change ubuntu boot slpash?
[10:03] <zaratustra1> Dr_Willis, thnks, but is it true that it uses grub2?
[10:03] <zaratustra1> any ideas?
[10:03] <Dr_Willis> zaratustra1:  9.10 defaulted to grub2 yes.
[10:03] <Dr_Willis> 10.04 also uses gub2
[10:04] <zaratustra1> ok
[10:05] <d6chung> hkBst: "clocksource=hpet hpet=force" seems to work but the system freezes after a while... in fact, I think I forgot to mention the freezes.

[10:08] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  you mean ext2/3/4 stuff? or how the default filesystem tree is laid out?
[10:09] <CrackGuy> Dr_Willis, default tree, where are the installed packages installed etc...
[10:10] <d6chung> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/373185 <-- Hmm, I'm wondering if this is what I'm experiencing and I'm just not giving it enough time to boot.
[10:10] <artinstartin> after i made the mistake to put encrypted system files into quarantine using klamav, i am looking for a method to undo it. i tried with recovery mode but klamav won't start. i still have ubuntu on usb, is it possible to acces klamav via usb and undo the quarantine?
[10:10] <airtonix>  CrackGuy http://www.tuxmachines.org/images/linux_file_structure.jpg
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  thres a linux filesystem hiarchy document/guide out there somewhere.
[10:10] <uby> hello i have a problem i cant watch youtube....i can watch but my PC freez when i try that
[10:10] <airtonix> CrackGuy, apt keeps installed debs in /var/cache/apt/archives
[10:11] <CrackGuy> hmmm
[10:11] <CrackGuy> am trying to figure out where in filesystem are the plugins of pidgin are stored
[10:11] <CrackGuy> i believe learning the filesystem will help me to find such files in future
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  do a 'locate pidgin' and see
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  or theres proberly a PER user directory also in their home
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  and/or check the package manager tools to see what thepidgin package installed where
[10:13] <CrackGuy> ohhh
[10:13] <ubuntu> can someone chat with me on yahoo please and help me check to see if my video from the webcam works?
[10:13] <blekos> hello, is there a teamviewer alternative for linux?
[10:13] <CrackGuy> Dr_Willis, locate showed too many results that the first portion of the screen vanished
[10:13] <blekos> vnc wont do it
[10:13] <airtonix> CrackGuy, pidgin is just a front end for purple
[10:13] <airtonix> !info purple
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> CrackGuy:  thats why the 'more' and 'less' commands were invented
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> command | less
[10:14] <CrackGuy> Dr_Willis, excuse my linuxowledge, it's my third day on linux
[10:14] <airtonix> CrackGuy, also, software with proper man files will have a 'files' section near the end which describe the files it uses

[10:19] <Dr_Willis> overmind:  what did you install exactly? you coudl reinstall the other packages that have the old.
[10:20] <ubuntu> om26er, it looks like video, just not audio
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> I dont worry too much about splash stuff.. its just annoying eyecandy
[10:20] <overmind> Dr_Willis: Was a .deb from gnome-look, azenis theme
[10:20] <airtonix> !anyone | Guest_36925

[10:20] <ubuntu> om26er, i had to install some jasper files but video seems to work. although it looked awful at first, but some adjustments improved it :) would you be able to chat and help me find out if it works for sure please?
[10:20] <om26er> ubuntu, ok I googled and it turn out it only supports video calling

[10:28] <Joey64>  how to clear alt+f2 history?
[10:29] <d6chung> I honestly don't get it: if I want a stable system, I need to boot with acpi=off... but I don't get wireless. If I want wireless, I need to use an unstable system. Life's not fair... :(
[10:29] <zxc> i repeat my question, so more would likely see it: are there any good video cards  that work well in Ubuntu? (with decent/good 3d performance)
[10:30] <Scarra3> Is it a good idea to remove gnome fully and then replace it with another WM
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> zxc:  most nvidia cards,, perhaps stay away from any that have came out in the last 2-3 months
[10:30] <Guest_36925>  zxc:  http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  you can easially keep gnome and install a different wm
[10:30] <om26er> zxc, if you have any nvidia card you can use their binary driver and it will give almost the same performance you will get in any other OS
[10:30] <ubuntu> zxc, intel is usually good
[10:30] <ubuntu> zxc, usually ati isn't the way to go
[10:31] <adante> hi, are there any apt sources for the 2.6.32 for karmic?
[10:31] <overmind> Dr_Willis: Fixed, I removed apache2 and now starts without errors, I don't know why crashed when it was installed, but if now works fine, is enought :)
[10:31] <om26er> adante, you want to install the latest kernel?
[10:32] <adante> om26er: i want to install 2.6.32, i don't know if that is latest
[10:32] <om26er> adalal, 2.6.33 would be latest
[10:33] <om26er> adante, you can find .deb packages for every kernel here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ try at your own risk ;)
[10:33] <Scarra3> Is it a good idea to remove gnome fully and then replace it with another WM
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  No. proberly not.
[10:33] <iceroot> stuart_: why not?
[10:33] <iceroot> stuart_: sorry
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  and gnome is a 'destop'  not a 'wm'
[10:33] <adante> om26er: thanks - if i install these, they don't 'overwite' my existing kernels do they? like, if it doesn't work, am i right in thinking it shouldn't be hard for me to revert to my existing kernel
[10:34] <ubuntu> Scarra3, you would still need a file manager
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  and you can easially install 'icewm' or other WM's and select them from the GDM menus
[10:34] <Scarra3> Well I wanted to install Awesome Window Manager
[10:34] <om26er> adante, na you existing kernel willbe fine
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  so install it then...
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Scarra3:  be sure to read its docs also.
[10:34] <adante> om26er: cheers

[10:35] <adante> how can i find out which version of linux i am using in terms of 32/64bit?
[10:36] <iceroot> adante: uname -m
[10:36] <iceroot> adante: or dpkg --print-architevture
[10:36] <adante> iceroot: i686 is 32-bit?
[10:36] <iceroot> adante: yes
[10:37] <adante> iceroot: hm, dpkg --print-architecture says amd64
[10:39] <adante> iceroot: could you help me with my understanding? uname -m says i686, dpkg --print-architecture is amd64 - i was under the impression amd64 was 64-bit, am i misunderstanding something?
[10:40] <mint> hey, the live cd installer cant find my hdd any help ?
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> mine says x86_64 and amd64 here
[10:41] <meowbuntu> mint reboot the cd on boot up check the cd for errors
[10:41] <iceroot> adante: what dpkg tells is important
[10:41] <iceroot> adante: amd64 = 64bit
[10:41] <meganerd> adante: it means that you installed amd64 but have an i686 kernel
[10:41] <adante> meganerd: is that... bad? it sounds odd
[10:42] <meganerd> adante: it is odd, what is the output of uname -a
[10:42] <meowbuntu> adante, yea you must have a 1686 processor. not a good idea to run 64 bit wndoes
[10:42] <meganerd> adante: not neccisarily bad
[10:42] <adante> meganerd, meowbuntu, iceroot: sorry, sorry.. i am just an idiot... typing commands in wrong terminal (different host)
[10:43] <iceroot> adante: :)
[10:43] <adante> uname -m says i686, dpkg --print-architecture says i386
[10:43] <iceroot> adante: everything fine
[10:43] <meowbuntu> Losha,
[10:43] <adante> thanks for you're help :]
[10:44] <meganerd> adante: been there, done that, more than once :)
[10:45] <meganerd> adante: I now have a custom PS line in my bashrc that causes the hostname to be bright cyan
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> meganerd:  theres whold guides on customing the bash Prompt. :)
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> meganerd:  and i recall some PS 'constructor' tool also
[10:45] <purple_processor> I don't seem to have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf anymore, wondering what the correct way to set up virtual display size eg "Virtual 2048 2048 " had a little play with xrandr but could get it to work..
[10:47] <d6chung> Interesting... with noapci, it boots and wireless works but then it suddenly doesn't after a while.

[10:50] <Dr_Willis> i forget the command i found  to 'construct' the prompts. some thing like bashthemeng or somthing similer
[10:50] <adante> or is that the linux-headers-2.6.32-02063209_2.6.32-02063209_all.deb i am seeing

[10:52] <meganerd> Dr_Willis: I never used it.  I just followed some guides then spent hours playing with it.  Of course most of my friends thought I was an idiot doing this while they were having fun with Starcraft :)

[10:54] <zongo> Hi guys, I am trying to make a 3G usb modem work with the command-line usb-modeswitch. When I installed it, I lost complete use of all my USB ports
[10:54] <haitao> meganerd:I just saw starcraft
[10:55] <zongo> could anyone tell me what i did wrong
[10:55] <meganerd> ajipubuntu: yes
[10:55] <afrodeity> I can't remove or install anything because of error 127
[10:56] <ajipubuntu> maganerd: Thanks!
[10:56] <zongo> the goal was to switch my 3G usb modem to directly be recognized a serial modem and not mount first as an external device
[10:56] <meganerd> haitao: some friends of mine own a net cafe/LAN gaming centre, and today they had a Starcraft tournament booked.  This is Starcraft 1 we are talking about, not the about to be released 2
[10:56] <zongo> where it would ask me to install the drivers first and then start as a usb modem
[10:57] <pask> thanks people ^_^ ok, memory leak problem here, and it isn't used as cache, but actually by programs, according to "free" cmd, but I've only rhythmbox, awn, and this program open, no way they can take 600MB. any solutions?
[10:58] <funkoolow> hi all
[10:58] <artinstartin> Dr_Willis, klamav asked to quarantine and half of the files were finally quarantined. it sayed it can be undone. i know it was a huge mistake. all together maybe 25 files. Do you have any idea what to do? i checked for theads but there is no solution to it
[10:58] <ubuntu_> hello
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> artinstartin:  Ive only used cvlamav on  windows files..  I would guess you could boot a live cd, an some how chroot in and run clamav and tell it to restore.. but ive never done it
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> artinstartin:  it quaretined Linux files?
[10:59] <artinstartin> zes onlz

[11:01] <om26er> ubuntu_, see the message above
[11:01] <KdaG> Shin: of course, but do i have to do it manually, can i just not select a country like when i did the install
[11:01] <Shin> KdaG: administration, software sources, look at the list, choose server closet to you, ideally a univeristy
[11:01] <KdaG> Shin im not using gnome
[11:02] <meganerd> pask: install htop, then sort by memory usage.  It is a command line program
[11:02] <haitao>    dose any one have the deb of the hydra ,I can not install that with src
[11:02] <Shin> KdaG: ahh, sorry, thought it was cause ubuntu channel
[11:02] <meganerd> funkoolow: what card is this that you plugged in?
[11:02] <artinstartin> Dr_Willis: the default option was not to scan for encrypted files but i thought it is maybe good to do. now these encrypted files are ubuntu system files and it only boots until log in. i am running the live usb atm. can you tell me how to access the klamav somehow?
[11:02] <ubuntu_> om26er, ok I'll try that, however another guide took me through sudo grub and so on, I got error 17- can't mount partition on setup grub (hd0)

[11:08] <artinstartin> Dr_Willis: maybe they are not system files, i am newbie.. but i thought they are as ubuntu does not start up anymore after the files where quarantined. i also have another partition with another ubuntu but i don't know how to access the klamav. when i go into recovery mode klamav or clamav is not able to start.
[11:08] <pask> It' X
[11:08] <pask> but it gets only 3.4%
[11:09] <meganerd> so how much memory does htop say is used?
[11:09] <pask> 742/2008
[11:09] <funkoolow> moreover, alsaconf does not exist anymore in 9.10 :|
[11:09] <bombel> How can I remove the title bar from windows? A lot of things in google but none gives a solution. Help pls!!
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  what aare you tryng to do exactly?
[11:10] <meganerd> pask: so, does this go up over time?
[11:10] <meganerd> pask: you ssaid you had a momory leak?
[11:10] <adante> hi guys
[11:10] <adante> so i have this weird behaviour where when i try to open a video, my x server restarts
[11:11] <adante> as in, i'm in an x session, logged in, and i open a video, movie player window comes up, then whole screen goes blank, and then the ubuntu splash comes up as if booting, and then the login screen
[11:11] <pask> yes, by time to time, normally as I start the computer I get only 26% of used memory, but it grows over time, after two days non-stop the sistem totally trashed
[11:11] <bombel> Dr_Willis, I want to remove the title bar for any window. The bar that stands on the top with the 3 buttons (minimize, maximize, close) and the title
[11:12] <pask> ( I said memory leak, but I'm not actually sure it means what I think, I'm not english native)
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  dare we ask why? COmpiz has a feature to do that. if you really wanted to.
[11:12] <bombel> Can I do it without using Compiz ?
[11:12] <artinstartin> Dr_Willis: this user has the same problem as me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1409554
[11:12] <bombel> Dr_Willis -^
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  no idea. never tried.
[11:13] <aman> can anyone tell me why my XP is not booting after restoring GRUB2 ????
[11:14] <bombel> I'm becoming desperate
[11:14] <pask> memory usage is now 743/2008
[11:14] <meganerd> pask: and you said that cache was not responsible for the usage?
[11:15] <madura> gnome file open save dialog is slow when browsing /usr/lib etc help please, this is 9.10 and there's no tracker
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  why is this even impoirntant?
[11:15]  * om26er thinks its called gtkfilechooser
[11:16] <pask> meganerd: I see cache usage separately, now sistem is using 36% for programs and 44% as cache
[11:16] <njbair> firefox keeps giving me an error that google gears isn't the right build, but I installed it from the repos. What's the deal?
[11:16] <om26er> madura, cuz that folder contains tons of files
[11:16] <bombel> Dr_Willis, this title bar takes useful space
[11:16] <d6chung> Aha! Finally got it! What I need to do (with noapic) is to constantly ping something so that the wireless "stays alive"... it's odd but it works! So I created a startup command that just constantly pings my home router.
[11:16] <bombel> Dr_Willis, It's not useful for me anymore
[11:17] <bombel> I can live without it
[11:17] <madura> om26er: nautilus doent do that but the file open save does and sometimes it does that for small number of files too
[11:17] <pask> meganerd: also, there is a tiny slice used as buffer, probably is there from last time I used Amule
[11:17] <madura> om26er: HDD isn't busy on that time the processor hits 100%
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  its a window manager feature/thing. Compiz can do it - I imagone others can aswell.. but not gnomes default metacityu
[11:17] <om26er> madura, I just opened that folder and nautilus did not respond for 10secs
[11:17] <jose> kkkkkkkkk
[11:18] <jose> hello
[11:18] <om26er> !hi | jose
[11:18] <meganerd> d6chung: using noapic is not the best solution.  Try to avoid it if you can.
[11:18] <madura> om26er: thats just the start, this happens when scrolling
[11:18] <bombel> Dr_Willis, does Compiz require graphics acceleration?
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  for the most part. yes
[11:19] <jose> i'm spanish
[11:19] <bombel> :S
[11:19] <om26er> jose, but you seem to be writing english ;)
[11:21] <d6chung> meganerd: Yeah, well, that's a current workaround for me.
[11:21] <om26er> jose, #ubuntu-es is spanish channel
[11:21] <meganerd> pask: I need to get some sleep now so I am outta here.  You may want to install atop, and then check with it peridically.  It actually runs in the backround and so can track these things.  Use the "m" key to get memory info.  "h" brings up the help screen.
[11:22] <dyek> Anybody knows if there exists a Ubuntu kernel package with CONFIG_M586TSC=y (likely pae package)? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-February/008727.html
[11:22] <meganerd> d6chung: that sucks.  My last laptop I needed to do something like that.  Kernel updates solve the issue for me.  Out of curiosity what kind of PC is this (laptop/desktop, CPU type, chipset if known)
[11:23] <pask> meganerd: ok, thank you for help anyway
[11:23] <bombel> Dr_Willis, Is it possible that some configuration file saves information about the size of the title bar? I realized that increasing the font size from the title bar makes the title bar grow, but the oposite is not true. I even removed all of the buttons and decreased the font size, but the title bar doesnt shrink... (I tried this with gconf-editor)
[11:23] <om26er> dyek, sudo apt-get install linux-image-pae
[11:23] <madura> any help on the file dialog thing?
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  some window managers have per-window/app title bar options. I do not think the default gnome window manager can do this.
[11:24] <om26er> dyek, that would be linux-image-2.6.31.xxxx-pae
[11:24] <dyek> om26er: I checked that 2.6.31-20-generic-pae doesn't have CONFIG_M586TSC=y. Hence, the question.
[11:24] <dyek> om26er: Any idea where I can get that?
[11:24] <om26er> dyek, in terminal
[11:24] <om26er> dyek, why you want to install pae kernel?
[11:25] <dyek> om26er: No...2.6.31-20-generic-pae doesn't have CONFIG_M586TSC=y.
[11:25] <d6chung> meganerd: Gateway ML3109. I looked around and apparently people are having problems with it even in Windows Vista, which it shipped with.
[11:25] <madura> where can i get the latest builds of gnome?
[11:26] <dyek> om26er: Ubuntu kernels are no longer boot-able as Xen DomU. It is discussed in the thread. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-February/008727.html
[11:26] <meganerd> d6chung: something that old should be well supported by now.  What version of Ubuntu are you using?>
[11:26] <d6chung> meganerd: 9.10.
[11:26] <meganerd> d6chung: weird
[11:26] <artinstartin> Dr_Willis: i will try to find a command line to undo the quarantine now. thanks for the tip
[11:27] <meganerd> dyek: from reading that link it looks like lucid will have that change, and it also looks like karmic will have it as well.
[11:28] <dyek> meganerd: Yes, but I can't find it in the latest packages that appears to be built on Feb. 8th, 2010.
[11:28] <meganerd> dyek: from checking my karmic and lucid installs, it does not appear that the changes have been applied yet
[11:30] <researcher1> hello
[11:31] <meganerd> dyek: that link suggests that it will appear in the SRU.  Your best bet is to build your own kernel
[11:31] <dyek> meganerd: Yup. I hoped that there is unstable repository that might have the package, but I suppose not... It is very time consuming to build a working custom kernel...
[11:32] <ad1> help with cairo dock cant close menu
[11:32] <aman> Dr_Willis, can u help me?
[11:32] <meganerd> dyek: there is probably a PPA for it
[11:32] <Dr_Willis> aman:  with what?
[11:32] <aman> Dr_Willis, i have installed grub2 after installing XP but XP not booting now..
[11:33] <aman> Dr_Willis, so any solutions to that?
[11:33] <LonelyDragon757> having issues with gqview and geeqie to see CIFS shares...see a bug for it posted.. but confused.  it said something about repackaging the build...  not no clue on how to do that...
[11:33] <Dr_Willis> depends on what xp is doping
[11:33] <meganerd> dyek: It might be time consuming when you are learning, but a change like this takes less than a minute to do, and less than an hour to build.
[11:33] <dyek> meganerd: Are you able to locate one? It would be great if there is a prebuilt package with CONFIG_M586TSC=y.
[11:33] <aman> Dr_Willis, sorry didnt get u
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> aman:  xp 'dont work' tells me very little.. what IS it doing? error? just hangs/ what exactly?
[11:34] <dyek> meganerd: I actually built it, but not the initrd. I have to rebuild it following Ubuntu's instruction.
[11:34] <meganerd> dyek: I would just search launchpad for the kernel team
[11:34] <bombel> Dr_Willis, by the way, how do I do it with Compiz? - remove the title bar
[11:35] <meganerd> dyek: make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=<your custom version> kernel-image kernel-headers
[11:35] <xsacha> hey.. i have a radeon hd4570 and noticed my card runs 100% load, extremely hot and fan runs on max. then i noticed ubuntu is using vesa drivers!! why?
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> bombel:  in the CCSM tools it has a settings for that stuff on a per window/program basis
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> !ccsm
[11:35] <aman> Dr_Willis, it was an error something like "Device Not Found: f12jd-rewtr"....dont remeber exactly but something like this only....
[11:35] <meganerd> xsacha: try getting the radeonhd drivers, they should be in synaptic
[11:35] <meganerd> time for sleep, 'night all
[11:35] <aman> Dr_Willis, if you want then shall i reboot to check that?
[11:36] <Dr_Willis> aman:  proberly better to ask in #windows
[11:36] <bombel> Dr_Willis, alright, gonna check that
[11:36] <xsacha> meganerd, they are but for some reason they are not installed by default. any ideas why?
[11:36] <Dr_Willis> aman:  since it seems xp is ghetting booted by grub but has issues
[11:36] <xsacha> i mean is there a reason for it? do they not work?
[11:36] <dyek> meganerd: Thanks! I'll try if my build is still workable.
[11:37] <aman> Dr_Willis, then any suggestions?
[11:37] <Mkools> Hi, I want to make bootable USB how to make that?
[11:37] <om26er> !usb | Mkools
[11:37] <shazbotmcnasty> how do I list the users in a channel?
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> aman:  with windows - the ultimate answer = reformat/reinstall
[11:39] <Mkools> ubottu: I am following instructions on :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB#Prepare%20your%20hard%20disk%20and%20grub%20for%20usb%20booting, Are they helpful
[11:39] <crackguy> i've installed lamp, is there a good setup guide to get the web server getting running with basic settings (without php or sql)
[11:40] <Mkools> ubottu: Are you replying to me?
[11:40] <overmind> !bot > Mkools
[11:41] <Mkools> overmind: I have tranfered a image to my usb stick I want to boot it, how to do it?
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> Mkools:  transfered how?
[11:42] <overmind> Mkools: Did you configure your BIOS for boot from a pendrive?
[11:43] <Mkools> overmind: Yeah I did that.
[11:43] <jose> bye bye
[11:43] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: I am working on chromium-os, and it has a script that did it.
[11:44] <hatake_kakashi> hmm offtopic?
[11:44] <pask> still memory leak problem here, and it isn't used as cache, but actually by programs, according to "free" cmd, but no way they can take all the used memory, also, it grows over time. any solutions?
[11:44] <overmind> hatake_kakashi: why ?
[11:45] <hatake_kakashi> overmind, chromium-os != ubuntu
[11:45] <hatake_kakashi> pask, not sure but atop may help if you can get used to the interface
[11:45] <Mkools> overmind: can you help?
[11:47] <adante> hi, can someone tell me the exact kernel used in 10.04 alpha?
[11:47] <overmind> Mkools: Can't you boot from a disk? I think is better option
[11:47] <pask> hatake_kakashi: atop tells me what program uses the memory, doesn't make the system free it when programs are closed.... am I correct?
[11:47] <Dr_Willis> 2.6.32-16 adante
[11:47] <robert__> will kopete work ok in gnome?
[11:47] <moijk> with a Pentium SU2700 and intel 4500, should I go for xubuntu - or would it be decent with kde or gnome?
[11:47] <overmind> robert__: Yes
[11:47] <robert__> overmind, thanks
[11:48] <Mkools> overmind : it if install it on disk, their is a problem it will nuke it.
[11:48] <Brodz987> i have just installed the banshee media player. the first time i used the program it worked fine. now when i try to start it up, it crashed before it opens. i have tried unitstalling and re-installing with no better results
[11:48] <adante> Dr_Willis: hm thanks - so am i right in thinking the lack of a -16 in http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ means i can't install this easily for karmic
[11:48] <hatake_kakashi> pask, no it won't but usually the kernel should handle it at least if a program is no longer used, its pointers are removed and possible therefore be overwritten. Whether or not are those accounted for using free/etc is what I am not sure
[11:48] <Brodz987> what can i do in the terminal to check what errors it has?
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> adante:  no idea - i rarely mess with the kerne
[11:50] <airtonix> Brodz987, tried removing the banshee settings in your home folder?
[11:50] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: Can you help?
[11:51] <Dr_Willis> Mkools:  if you made the image properl;y.. and put it on the flash properly.. and the pc is set to boot from USB - it should work
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> Mkools: you could test it in virtualbox first
[11:52] <pask> hatake_kakashi: fact is that when system is freshly started and I use no program, only 20-26% of memory is used, after about a day on runtime, if I close all programs the value is about 30%. So somewhere about 5% of 2GB have been lost! Once the system totally went trashing because of this fact
[11:52] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: On ubuntu how to get a virtual box?
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> !vbox
[11:52] <isolat3dsh33p> yo, is OPNET available for Linux?
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> whats OPnet?
[11:53] <Brodz987> airtonix: yeah. i have tried running "banshee" from the terminal but the terminal is just sitting idle
[11:53] <hatake_kakashi> pask, well I don't know, I'm not an expert on kernel, for those issues maybe you should direct them to ##linux or something like that
[11:53] <pask> hatake_kakashi: ok, thank you!

[12:01] <oxsav> and when i put the phones to listen music
[12:01] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: And one contains lost and found file
[12:01] <remoteCTRL2> gawd...
[12:01] <Dr_Willis> Mkools:  ive only used the usb/iso image files to toy with that thing. If its not booting. It might not hav the bootloader installed properly
[12:01] <xsacha> so is there any config file i can edit for xorg? like xorg.conf of old
[12:01] <isolat3dsh33p> xsacha, probably. I got my ATI driver from there. :)
[12:02] <xsacha> isolat3dsh33p, doesnt work on 10.04 though :( so i am forced to use opensource driver. any ideas?

[12:03] <oxsav> so i will start again my question
[12:03] <hatake_kakashi> elliotjhug, I suppose you could set it up in cron
[12:03] <xsacha> ok but my question does not pertain to 10.04. so you avoid answering my question by directing me away. thanks...

[12:03] <suleman> i have downloaded a pdf file upto 60% and then the download was stopped.how do i view the file?
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> Mkools:  if you got grub on the usb.. and boot the usb - you should see the usb sticks GRUB menu not the pcs grub menu
[12:03] <hatake_kakashi> rayone, this is ubuntu support channel, not a general linux channel
[12:04] <hatake_kakashi> suleman, you can't
[12:04] <Dr_Willis> rayone:  most any of them should work fine
[12:04] <elliotjhug> hatake_kakashi, not ideal - it would work - but I'm sure thats not how most such processes work
[12:04] <oxsav> i have the ubuntu and when i connect the phones to listen to music the music continues to in columns and i can listen the sound on the phones and in the columns at the same time! as anyone here who can help me?
[12:04] <rayone> hatake-kakashi i mean so ubuntu..
[12:04] <isolat3dsh33p> xsacha, I don't have 10.04 installed, so can't really help you. But if I'm not wrong, usually xorg.conf is located at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
[12:04] <hatake_kakashi> elliotjhug, in what?
[12:05] <madjoe> Hey, does anyone use Adium theme for Pidgin on Ubuntu?

[12:05] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, I don't know what you're referring to in columns, what is colums?
[12:05] <xsacha> isolat3dsh33p, do does the file still work in 9.10? i just noticed it isnt there by default

[12:05] <msenoz> has anybody succeed to install rt3070 (awush036nh) adapter in ubuntu with injection support?

[12:05] <tome0> hi, I downloaded ubuntu from here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download and burnt it to a cd. Now Im trying to "Try ubuntu without any change to your computer" but it just goes to a black screen with a white blinking underscore sign
[12:05] <oxsav> hatake_kakashi,  speakers...
[12:06] <msenoz> i have read many tutorial but didn't work
[12:06] <oxsav> where the sounds go out when you are listen to music on computer...
[12:06] <rayone> Dr_willis: ok thanks
[12:06] <hatake_kakashi> elliotjhug, ahh yes but do you have a suggestion for one to run it in the background even long after the user disconnects from remote session? the only other way is probably via screen
[12:07] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, and phones as in headphones? if so, are the headphones and speakers on two different ports?
[12:07] <oxsav> yes
[12:08] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, afaik that isn't possible without a capable sound card
[12:09] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, if you persist, you can try jack
[12:09] <isolat3dsh33p> xsacha, I have the file in the location I just mentioned and I'm running 9.10. So I'm guessing, yeah it still works.
[12:09] <oxsav> when I connect the headphones the music continues to give the columns of the computer
[12:10] <msenoz> has anybody succeed to install rt3070 (awush036nh) adapter in ubuntu with injection support?
[12:10] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, you're not being specific on your question, do you want sound to come through your speakers yes or no?
[12:10] <oxsav> when i connect headphones, no
[12:10] <oxsav> of course
[12:11] <oxsav> i just want to listen the music on the head phones when i connect it
[12:11] <dotty> True story
[12:11] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, so you want the computer to automatically differentiate between speakers and headphones connected?
[12:11] <dotty> dead babies

[12:11] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, don't even know if that's possible
[12:12] <dotty> Can anyone help
[12:12] <dotty> .............................................................
[12:12] <dotty> 8_----------------------------------------D
[12:12] <oxsav> hatake_kakashi,  my computer its laptop
[12:12] <oxsav> not a desktop
[12:12] <dotty> My computer is  laptop
[12:12] <dotty> my speakers are logitechs
[12:12] <elky> dotty, i have no idea what help you'd need with logitech speakers, and ascii pictures aren't going to help.
[12:13] <dotty> I first thought the speakers had a short in the wire
[12:13] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, even at that the laptop should be able to handle incoming connection from headphone
[12:13] <dotty> when i moved it around
[12:13] <dotty> i would get reception
[12:13] <dotty> from the two back speakers
[12:13] <oxsav> hatake_kakashi,  in the other computer this problem even exists but in this -.-' i don't know to resolve :s
[12:13] <dotty> do i need another subwoofer or
[12:13] <dotty> do i need new speakers or what
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> dotty:  yes...
[12:14] <dotty> yes what
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> given the vague question.. i figured id give a vague answer.
[12:14] <hatake_kakashi> oxsav, yes and I don't know how to specifically solve it either.. I'd try other livecd/livedvd distros and see if its a driver/HAL/etc issue or specifically a hardware issue..  I was thinking someone had used jackd for proper port senceing.
[12:17] <hatake_kakashi> I personally never had that issue, on my old laptop, it was done via hardware level or so I figured
[12:18] <SandGorgon> Dr_Willis, is jackd usable in Ubuntu ? with skype, vlc, flash I mean
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> I think thats the proper term used 'port senceing'
[12:18] <hatake_kakashi> and yes jack was suggested before
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> SandGorgon:  not sure - ive never had the issue
[12:18] <hatake_kakashi> some programs needs to be configured to use jack output/input driver or it won't work
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> with many sound cards these days. a headphone Out. COULD also be a mic in, or subwoofer out.. its supposed to somehow detect what it is. (or ask?) and confiogure it properly
[12:19] <bero> ola
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> It gets confuseing - because they use same ports for differnt tasks. to save $$ i guess.
[12:19] <oxsav> brbr
[12:19] <oxsav> brb
[12:20] <robert__> where can i get the theme from 4.10?
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> robert__:  you mean 10.04 ? ive seen it at variouys ubuntu blog/news site.
[12:22] <robert__> Dr_Willis, i mean 4.10 warty warthog
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> robert__:  omgubuntu, and/or that webup8 one.
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> robert__:  thats scary :) check gnome art i guess
[12:22] <robert__> huh? where do i get those 2?
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> robert__:  i saw a site going todo a 'history of ubuntu themes' artical. perhaps they will have those all
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> those were web sites.. I got them in my NewsFeeds
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> www.webup8.org
[12:25] <Haegin> Hi, is this a good place to ask about iptables and ip forwarding?
[12:27] <xxx_> Hi .... does anybody know how can I manage my devices from the terminal  like the Palimpset utility(GUI)??
[12:27] <norbi> hi! guys can you tell me how to access network computers? those PC`s are on Windows OS and few minutes ago i was able but now i could not access them
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  i tend to bookmark them once i access them the first time.. seem to help them get rembered
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  or i enter the full proper path to the shrares on teh windows box.
[12:29] <norbi> Dr_Willis: but it does not works even with the share path
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  try with the ip# instead of the machine name. Ive had issues with that also
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  and check what 'findsmb' and 'smbtree' also scan and detect
[12:32] <norbi> Dr_Willis: how can i do that? 'findsmb' and 'smbtree' ?
[12:32] <humphreybc> hi all, could someone please tell me what the package name for the "About Me" thing in Gnome is?
[12:32] <xxx_> Hi .... does anybody know how can I manage my devices from the terminal  like the Palimpset utility(GUI)??
[12:32] <norbi> smbtree gives me back the computers
[12:33] <norbi> but cannot access them via network
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  thats points to the gnome file manager part having issues again.., its alwyas flakey for me
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> you could try to mount them via hand
[12:34] <lorenzo> #ubuntu-it-chat
[12:34] <norbi> Dr_Willis: then what do i have to do/
[12:34] <norbi> ?
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  you can mount a windows share with  'sudo mount <some options>'  to a location  then access them that way
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> I think you may need to install a package or2 for it to work however
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> !info smbfs
[12:36] <lorenzo> #ubuntu-it
[12:37] <norbi> can you give me a good example for this location: \\NORBI-PC\proiecte ?
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> check that first url for examples
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> smbmount //winpc/shared /mnt/share -o username=user,password=pass,rw
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> is similer to what you could try
[12:42] <ae86-drifter> whats the best way of installing windows vista on my computer without it interfering with linux
[12:42] <robert__> whats the name of the very first ubuntu theme?
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> ae86-drifter:  put it on its own hard drive, and use th pc's bios to pick what HD to boot
[12:42] <moijk> install it on its own partition prior to installing linux.
[12:43] <ae86-drifter> i already have linux installed
[12:43] <ae86-drifter> i really want to use grub to choose
[12:43] <moijk> ae86-drifter: then fix grub after installing vista (why vista?)
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> ae86-drifter:  get 2nd hd for windowss.. Unplug linux drive.. install windows.. Plug linux back in.. use bios to pick what one to boot...
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> of coruse grub will see the windows install when it updates.. so you may as well set linux drive to boot by default
[12:44] <ae86-drifter> Dr_Willis, i already have windows vista on a spare hd, could i put it in and configure grub to just boot it ?
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> ae86-drifter:  in theory 'update-grub' will do that automatcally
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> if you are using grub2
[12:44] <moijk> ae86-drifter: by the way, ae86 rocks ;)
[12:44] <ae86-drifter> Dr_Willis, ok thansk
[12:44] <norbi> Dr_Willis: i think i have to restart the system
[12:45] <zetheroo> a friend did a big update and now the admin password is not being accepted
[12:45] <ae86-drifter> thx
[12:45] <norbi> it doesn`t work
[12:45] <stc> can somebody tell me if I can make my webcam pleomax pwc-3800 work under ubuntu 10.04
[12:45] <norbi> and the shared things are not password protected, so it must be not so complicated to set up the mount
[12:45] <vinoman> hi
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> norbi:  thers no spaces in the sharenames are there? that can really goof things up
[12:48] <robert__> whats the name of the very first ubuntu theme?
[12:48] <robert__> i'm looking for it to install it
[12:48] <casinaroyale> How to see the latest installed updates? for some reason my video players are crashing suddenly :(
[12:48] <norbi> still nothing
[12:50] <zetheroo> please help ...  a friend did a big update and now the admin password is not being accepted
[12:50] <AceKing> Can someone help me to merge partitions? I have a Toshiba laptop that I want to dual boot with Ubuntu. For some reason Toshiba as 3 partitions on the drive. I tried deleting the 2 small partitions and seeing if I could resize the main partition and it's not working.
[12:51] <stevecam> zetheroo, the admin password is randomized in ubuntu
[12:51] <vivid> AceKing, a dual boot of windows and linux usually has three partitions
[12:51] <vivid> AceKing, windows, linux, and swap
[12:51] <zetheroo> stevecam: I mean the sudo password
[12:51] <robert__> whats the name of the very first ubuntu theme?
[12:51] <OrdErEdchAOs> join #hackers-india
[12:51] <robert__> i'm looking for it to install it
[12:51] <stevecam> zetheroo, can it log in?
[12:51] <zetheroo> stevecam: yes
[12:51] <AceKing> vivid, I know but windows is setup with three partitions already
[12:52] <AceKing> vivid, Ubuntu wants to write over Vista
[12:52] <vivid> AceKing, boot with the ubuntu livecd and use gparted to modify your disk
[12:52] <vivid> to make room for ubuntu
[12:52] <stevecam> thats strange, if it can log in and it wont let you sudo im guessing the password is right but something else is wrong
[12:53] <vivid> AceKing, be thoughtful of which partitions you edit, as youll likely lose data in the process
[12:53] <AceKing> vivid, that's what I want to know.. How do I do that with 3 partitions already on the disk?
[12:53] <vivid> boot the livecd
[12:53] <vivid> then run System>Administration>Gparted
[12:53] <AceKing> vivid, they have a 1.5gb and a 7 gb partion that I'mt rying to delete
[12:56] <AceKing> vivid, the 1.5 gb is before the vista partition, and the 7 gb is after. I deleted both partitions and have unallocated space that I can't seem to do anything with
[12:56] <robert__> whats the name of the very first ubuntu theme?
[12:56] <robert__> i'm looking for it to install it
[12:56] <xxx_> Hi .... does anybody know how can I manage my devices from the terminal  like the Palimpset utility(GUI)??
[12:56] <vivid> AceKing, gparted will allow you to move partitions on the disk
[12:57] <AceKing> vivid, I'm going to boot in to live CD right now.
[12:59] <Snicksie> hi, for some reason my firefox doesn't want to throw flashobjects away after they aren't used anymore in a tab. Why and how to fix this? (Mozilla Firefox 3.5.8, Ubuntu 9.10)
[12:59] <zetheroo> stevecam: I just found out the system logs in automatically
[13:00] <sagaci> whats the difference between ; and && in amongst commands?
[13:00] <stevecam> zetheroo, sounds like a case of using the wrong password then
[13:01] <vivid> sagaci, && is used to link commands, example 'cd /dir && ./program'
[13:01] <stevecam> sagaci, those sort of questions are not ubuntu specific,  try asking in ##linux when you want to find out information like that
[13:03] <human374> is there any possibility to reset the network setting to default?
[13:05] <chili555> human374, can you narrow the question? what are you trying to udo?
[13:05] <lorenzo_> ubuntu-it-chat
[13:05] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it-chat
[13:06] <AceKing> vivid, I clicked on the vista drive and clicked on Resize/ Move. I moved the slider all the way over and clicked on apply. I keep getting an error occurred while applying operations
[13:06] <root_> How do I install the restricted driver manager on 9.10?
[13:06] <vivid> thats probably because its the second partition
[13:07] <vivid> for example, sda has three partitions, sda1, sda2, and sda3
[13:07] <AceKing> vivid, even thought it's unallocated space?
[13:07] <vivid> you cannot make sda2 sda1 without deleting it
[13:07] <vivid> AceKing, just use that small 1.5g space at the start as your swap space
[13:09] <acicula> sagaci: && just waits until what before has completed and exited, look at the bash page, ; is more used for programming bash stuff
[13:09] <AceKing> vivid, I tried that. another thing I'm noticing is that the ntfs drive has a yellow triangle with an exclamation point
[13:09] <human374> (first sorry abou my bad english), we live 3 in a flat so somebody always split the net for the others because our router is weak... and when I tried to dial with ubuntu I used pppoeconf and all the older settings are lost, and now I got this message "Wired Networks
[13:10] <human374> device not managed"
[13:10] <vivid> AceKing, my ntfs drive has the same icon
[13:10] <vivid> it means that you cannot read it because its not mounted
[13:10] <vivid> if i mount the drive it goes away
[13:10] <AceKing> vivid, ok
[13:11] <AceKing> vivid, even when I clicked on "Check" for the ntfs partition I get an error
[13:11] <Snicksie> hi, for some reason my firefox doesn't want to throw flashobjects away after they aren't used anymore in a tab. Why and how to fix this? (Mozilla Firefox 3.5.8, Ubuntu 9.10)
[13:11] <stevecam> i just converted another windows user to ubuntu
[13:11] <bbelt16ag> hi peeps how hard would it to be to upgrade to the latest  version of ubuntu from karamic

[13:14] <mrcoodles> hello , im trying to setup zoneminder under ubuntu server 9.1 with a simple webcam. i've managed to save jpegs from the webcam using fswebcam. is there a way i can pipe the output of fswebcam to something that can do streaming for zoneminder ?

[13:16] <zetheroo> what can cause a sudo password to no longer work?
[13:16] <bbelt16ag> to compile  weechat-curses
[13:16] <acicula> zetheroo: lack of privilidges or incorrect syntax
[13:16] <madjoe> does anyone use any Audium theme for Pidgin on Ubuntu?
[13:16] <madjoe> :)
[13:17] <zetheroo> acicula: lack of priviledges?
[13:17] <bbelt16ag> woa
[13:17] <kinja-sheep> zetheroo: "sudo passwd" ?
[13:17] <madjoe> it's Adium.. not Audium :)
[13:17] <bbelt16ag> didnt see those thanks peeps
[13:17] <jrib> zetheroo: your user no longer being in the admin group probably
[13:17] <vivid> who was looking for weechat 3.x?
[13:18] <jrib> vivid: bbelt16ag
[13:18] <Dr_Willis_> its easy to compile weechat from source
[13:18] <Dr_Willis_> 10.04 has version 0.3.0 also
[13:18] <zetheroo> kinja-sheep: ok - one sec .... helping someone with this over skype chat
[13:18] <SandGorgon> man ..look at the amount of swag you can buy to support OpenBSD ( https://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order ) - Ubuntu doesnt have half as much
[13:18] <zetheroo> jrib: that can do it?
[13:18] <vivid> yea, sid has it as well, shouldnt be hard to rebuild the source for karmic
[13:18] <chilli0> Hello , will this start limewire at 2am?
[13:18] <chilli0> chilli0@chilli0-laptop:~$ crontab -l
[13:18] <jrib> zetheroo: of course...
[13:18] <chilli0> # m h  dom mon dow   command

[13:19] <zetheroo> jrib: is there a way to check in the terminal if your in the right group?
[13:19] <fleixius> How do I install the restricted driver manager on ubuntu 9.10?
[13:19] <bbelt16ag> weel i tired
[13:19] <jrib> chilli0: it will try to, yes.  But if limewire is some sort of gui program, it probably won't work just like that
[13:19] <jrib> !cron > chilli0
[13:19] <bbelt16ag> my pastebin is up there  in  the  backlog
[13:19] <kinja-sheep> chilli0: The best way is to test it yourself.
[13:19] <jrib> zetheroo: « groups »
[13:19] <fleixius> Or can anyone tell me what its called
[13:19] <chilli0> kinja-sheep,  Well, It didn't work last night . Wasn't sure why.
[13:19] <jrib> fleixius: jockey is installed by default
[13:19] <mauro> eden.selfip.net
[13:20] <chilli0> limewire runs fine just by typing: limewire into terminal
[13:20] <acicula> zetheroo: means not allowed to, can you paste what you are trying, explain what you think would happen and show what happened instead
[13:20] <fleixius> jrib: Yes in the default ubuntu-desktop instalation - but jockey was the name i was lookin for.
[13:20] <kinja-sheep> chilli0: See what jrib said. You will have to use "DISPLAY=:0 limewire" as to indict which display/monitor to use
[13:20] <zetheroo> acicula: it's happened to someone I am trying to help over skype chat
[13:21] <zetheroo> acicula: they are trying to update (sudo apt-get update)
[13:21] <kinja-sheep> chilli0: You always can test it by "ssh localhost" then run the program. :o
[13:21] <Nollog> zetheroo: tell her to type "group" in a terminal.

[13:25] <Snicksie> hi, for some reason my firefox doesn't want to throw flashobjects away after they aren't used anymore in a tab. Why and how to fix this? (Mozilla Firefox 3.5.8, Ubuntu 9.10)
[13:25] <chilli0> kinja-sheep,  I just ran it again. But no errors ? strange
[13:26] <zetheroo> acicula: looks like it worked this time ... :P ...
[13:26] <chilli0> Welll i gotta go , cya
[13:26] <JediMaster> I'm having problems trying to run "smbpasswd -a username" to add a samba user, I've added one like that but now I get: "Failed to add entry for user kath." any ideas?
[13:27] <zetheroo> acicula: sorry no ... bad call ...
[13:27] <Snicksie> JediMaster, did the user already exist?
[13:27] <kinja-sheep> xfact: http://tinyurl.com/426a7j
[13:28] <JediMaster> Snicksie, no, I've only added one user and this is a completely different username
[13:28] <xfact> Thanks Kinja-sheep
[13:28] <Snicksie> JediMaster, passwd looks like it's to add a password for that (already existing) user
[13:29] <JediMaster> Snicksie, I've tried with a completely different username and same thing again
[13:29] <kinja-sheep> JediMaster: sudo? o.o
[13:29] <Haegin> hi, I can't get ip masquerading working on my home network, is anyone able to spare 5 minutes to do a sanity check and make sure I'm not missing something please?
[13:29] <JediMaster> kinja-sheep, yeah already sudo su'ed
[13:31] <Haegin> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward is set to 1 and I'm using the firewall rules from the tldb site
[13:31] <kinja-sheep> JediMaster: I think it does not work because you'll have to add a new user to your system before you're able to "smbpasswd" the certain user.
[13:32] <JediMaster> ahhh yes, duh, I forogot I already had the username created for the first user
[13:32] <SiegHard> so not better

[13:33] <Haegin> I can do dns lookups fine, just not browse the Internet
[13:33] <JediMaster> kinja-sheep, is there a way to do it without giving people shell access?
[13:33] <Haegin> JediMaster: set their shell to /usr/bin/false
[13:33] <JediMaster> Haegin, thanks
[13:34] <lopman> hi
[13:34] <Haegin> it might not be in /usr/bin but which false should tell you where it is

[14:53] <remoteCTRL> creepy quit here...

[14:54] <AndyGraybeal> how do i force someone to change their password at next logon?  specifically a graphical logon, they never logon in cli.
[14:55] <andai> Hi, the latest grub breaks my bootable USB drive, is it possible to get the old one and install that instead [ & configure ubuntu to stop updating it until they fix it? ]
[14:55] <remoteCTRL> andai: sudoe, you can just apt-get purge grub2 and apt-get install grub
[14:55] <jolaren> How do I change my language / charset to swedish in ubuntu server? Soemhow I've lost my "åäö" signs and everything looks strange.
[14:56] <remoteCTRL> andai: might need a grub-install and update-grub after that
[14:56] <andai> remoteCTRL lol grub2 isn't even a package. I'm on linux mint
[14:56] <remoteCTRL> andai: in that case i suggest you say that for starters and then go look in #mint;)
[14:56] <andai> oh nevermind they call grub2 "grub-pc"
[14:57] <andai> kthx
[14:57] <remoteCTRL> jolaren: you mean on the commandline?
[14:58] <albech> jolaren, swedish has been abandoned in favor of danish ;)
[14:58] <jolaren> remoteCTRL: Yes, on the commandline.. It was all workin good but I changed alot in order to get irssi to work on a shell and now it wont even work in nano
[14:59] <remoteCTRL> basically you find that in /etc/default/console-setup, change XKBLAYOUT="" to se
[14:59] <remoteCTRL> but i seriously dunno how many keys you got there, might need to change XKBMODEL="pc105" to pc103 or so
[14:59] <remoteCTRL> jolaren:
[15:00] <disappearedng_> when I run nmap on myself I see this: 8080/tcp  open  http-proxy what the hell is this?
[15:00] <jolaren> remoteCTRL: takin a look nw
[15:00] <remoteCTRL> disappearedng_: dont know what a rpoxy is or dont know what app is causing this?
[15:01] <disappearedng_> how do I check
[15:01] <remoteCTRL> disappearedng_: what is it that you wanna know, what a http_proxy is or which app is doing this?
[15:01] <andai> alright how do i reconfigure/install/wahtever GRUB2 onto my usb drive (hopefully not touching the internal drives?)
[15:02] <ikonia> andai: you're using mint - please stop asking here
[15:02] <remoteCTRL> disappearedng_: in the first case eploy google, in the latter lsof -i | grep 8080 should tell you what is using it
[15:02] <andai> ikonia: how kind. It's the ubuntu package.
[15:02] <disappearedng_> remoteCTRL: obviously which app is using this, I did a lsof and still can't see 8080
[15:02] <andai> and #linuxmint-help is sleeping
[15:02] <disappearedng_> very strange indeed
[15:02] <ikonia> andai: you're using mint - we don't support it here - so please stop asking
[15:03] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: as youre there could you pls help me figure out why my desktop is all black and windows turn all black if i maximize them?
[15:03] <andai> ikonia: I'm using ubuntu's grub2 package, which should do the same thing no matter where you use it, right?
[15:03] <remoteCTRL> disappearedng_: lsof -i it is
[15:03] <Megrem> i've got problems setting up my logitech quickcam..
[15:03] <ikonia> andai: please stop asking - we don't support mint
[15:03] <andai> brb
[15:04] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: gawd i admire your patience buddy...
[15:04] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: wow, that sounds odd, what happened to make this behaviour start
[15:04] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: seriously no idea, i just did a clean setup and it already came like that...
[15:04] <fredd> i'm on the ubuntu liveCD trying to reinstall grub2 on my USB drive
[15:04] <remoteCTRL> !ask | Megrem
[15:05] <remoteCTRL> so andai seems to be back as fredd how cute...
[15:05] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: I'm guessing you've got an ati video card
[15:05] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: exactly its a rv250?
[15:05] <suleman> whos ikonia
[15:06] <Megrem> well.. problem with logitech quickcam messenger.. quickcam.sh says: [!] Kernel compiler and gcc seem to be different versions.
[15:06] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: well, not that I've ever seen that problem personally, I am aware of lots of similar problems with ati cards, with similar style problems
[15:06] <abhi_nav> suleman: haa haa haa
[15:06] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: can you set the Xorg.conf driver option to "vesa" see if it works better ?
[15:07] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: sure, will do and report back in a few...
[15:08] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: erm... there isnt even an xorg.conf file anymore :D
[15:08] <disappearedng_> remoteCTRL: yes I did
[15:08] <xukun> anybody here using aiccu for ipv6 tunneling?
[15:08] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: that's fine, it's all dynamic, grab an example one of the net, or do an Xorg -configure
[15:08] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: (you need to have the xserver dead to do an Xorg -configure)
[15:09] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: is that really the command or do you mean dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[15:09] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: , that's the command, but you can do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg that's another good option
[15:10] <rabbit1> IM, Send File, Ignore, Info, Remove, and Last Said
[15:10] <remoteCTRL> k, thanks so far, buddy, be back in a few, k?

[15:16] <hl_99> hey, i would like to use gparted to resize my /home partition but i cannot unmount it unfortunately
[15:16] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: yepp that did the trick
[15:16] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: yet still this is quite a poor solution:/
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> hl_99: do it in live cd
[15:16] <hl_99> ActionParsnip,  do i have to install gparted there then too?
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> hl_99: should be part of the live environment, the installer uses it
[15:17] <remoteCTRL> hl_99: try unmounting it on the commandline with sudo umount /home this will only work if youre not currently accessing it, so will probably nbeed to boot a live cd
[15:17] <remoteCTRL> oops me very late :D
[15:17] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: ok now we know what is causing it, happen to know how to fix it?
[15:18] <hl_99> ok thanks guys

[15:23] <ActionParsnip> liogr: no, i disable it using boot options too
[15:23] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: well... basicall nvidia are the very only cards you can use, cos intel or so are also no good... thats sad...

[15:26] <elzorab> hey guys anyone can help on this please...i cannot install ubuntu it starts to download something from internet while its preparing to install and it stops. i tried several times nothing
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> elzorab: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? Did you verify the CD once burned?
[15:27] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, ok... will try
[15:27] <natrixnatrix89> Which videocard works with ubuntu better - nvidia or ati?
[15:27] <rsk> rohithwiz23 there's a .deb on the site you posted that says it will work on ubuntu
[15:27] <rsk> rohithwiz23 why haven't you tried that?
[15:27] <elzorab> nop haven't i will do now
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: both work well, nvidia have a sterling track record
[15:28] <natrixnatrix89> !video
[15:28] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, thx
[15:28] <rohithwiz23> rsk: I did it will not work... It says need  OpenCV and ImageMagic
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: all better?

[15:29] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: nvidia have a great track record, ati are slowly catching up

[15:30] <Megrem> ?
[15:30] <natrixnatrix89> ActionParsnip: But the when I use a pc with an old nvidia card I have to install the proprietary hardware driver. Do the new nvidia cards have that problem?
[15:30] <huntix> nothin
[15:30] <abhi_nav> ubottu is sleeping
[15:30] <abhi_nav> wake up ubottu
[15:31] <abhi_nav> :-(
[15:31] <abhi_nav> !webcam | Megrem
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: no, the new 195 driver supports new cards really well, nvidia make linux drivers and have done for a LONG time
[15:31] <abhi_nav> hey channel ops ubottu is sleeping
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: ati are only just cottoning on
[15:31] <erUSUL> !hi
[15:31] <abhi_nav> ikonia wake up ubottu
[15:31] <om26er> the return of ubottu
[15:31] <chazco> Just out of interest - can Ubuntu relay bluetooth signals over a network?
[15:32] <airtonix> chazco, you mean tunnel or do you mean use bluetooth device as a network device?
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> chazco: can you expand please
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> !coffee
[15:32] <abhi_nav> who typed that?
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> abhi_nav: typed what?
[15:33] <natrixnatrix89> ActionParsnip: So If I buy a new nvidia I wont have to install the proprietary driver?
[15:33] <abhi_nav> !webcam | Megrem
[15:33] <abhi_nav> look
[15:33] <abhi_nav> again its not working
[15:33] <natrixnatrix89> what happened to ubottu?
[15:33] <Megrem> hm
[15:33] <abhi_nav> that is what i am asking
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: you can use the open nv driver if you want, the nvidia driver is needed for full 3D accelleration
[15:33] <abhi_nav> ActionParanip: ubottu pm me and said he dont know what abhi_nav is
[15:33] <abhi_nav> Megre: wait
[15:33] <Megrem> k
[15:33] <rohithwiz23> rsk: I did it will not work... It says need  OpenCV and ImageMagic
[15:33] <chazco> airtonix / ActionParsnip - e.g. a bluetooth device (lets say a headset) is at location A with PC A. Another deivce (say a phone) is at location B with PC B. Could the headset use the Ubuntu PC's to connect to the phone?
[15:34] <natrixnatrix89> ActionParsnip: Ok. Thanks for the info
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> abhi_nav: ubottu is sleeping, i'm sure there is some work being done on her or somesuch
[15:34] <abhi_nav> ActionParanip: hmm.
[15:34] <airtonix> chazco, im not aware of any bluetooth tunneling apps
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> chazco: i guess you could, pulse is very modular so i dont see why not, it will take smoe work but linux is very flexible
[15:34] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, no. still slow.
[15:35] <alpharesearch> I have a dual monitor setup and I want automatic startup of applications (firefox, thunderbird, xchat, pidgin) on selected positions on both screens... so far only pidgin remembers where to go (and I didn't do anything for this)... all other pile up just on one screen... but remember there size.... is there a gnome command to force an application on one of the screens?
[15:35] <abhi_nav> Megrem: read that msg by ubottu
[15:35] <chazco> airtonix / ActionParsnip - Thought it wouldn't be setup currently... sounds interesting though, might have an attempt a this
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: do you get ANY output from: uname -a | grep x86_64    ?
[15:35] <elzorab> ok MD5 codes does not match
[15:35] <airtonix> chazco, all bluetooth apps for linux expect to use bluetooth devices on the machine they are run on.
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> elzorab: then the ISO is bad. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS check the files you download
[15:35] <elzorab> download again ISO ?
[15:35] <huntix> yep
[15:36] <YoungBoy> hehe
[15:36] <airtonix> chazco, so unless your bluetooth app lets you use mic input from pulseaudio then you will be out of luck.
[15:36] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, no output. i am on x86 not 64 bit os
[15:36] <elzorab> ok thx on my way
[15:36] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, plus, my whole system slows down when i watch that video on youtube
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> elzorab: yes, its bad. Thats why MD5 tests exist so you can check stuff
[15:36] <alpharesearch> or is there a application startup script that has a screen choice?
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: just checking ;)
[15:36] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, however, when i save the youtube video and watch locally with totem, it's fast
[15:37] <airtonix> alpharesearch, research 'devilspie"
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: have you got 3D accelleration (compiz going etc)
[15:37] <chazco> airtonix - It might be doable, will probably take some coding. I'm actually thinking wii remotes...
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: ^
[15:37] <Megrem> abhi_nav: lol well i used this tutorial to install the cam: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1184619
[15:37] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, dont thnk so. i just did a clean install o 9.10 today. all default setting
[15:37] <airtonix> alpharesearch, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Devilspie
[15:37] <Megrem> but it didn't work.. the error i told you before
[15:37] <abhi_nav> Megrem: have you followed the link give by ubottu?
[15:37] <Megrem> yes
[15:37] <abhi_nav> then?
[15:38] <Megrem> and my camera is not even listed there
[15:38] <alpharesearch> airtonix: thanks, this looks like what I need!
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: install compizconfig-settings-manager and if you can't enable cmopiz then you dont have your video card going fullt
[15:38] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, firefire/youtube slow down to a point, the firefox grayed out, and switching to xchat is slow too
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: which will explain the slowness
[15:38] <Megrem> i've got the logitech quickcam messenger plus.. lsusb: Bus 002 Device 011: ID 046d:08f6 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Messenger Plus
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: sudo lshw -C display | grep -i product     will help you find guides on setting it up
[15:40] <doleyb> meatbun: have you tried www.youtube.com/html5, and maybe also installed google chrome?
[15:40] <abhi_nav> Megrem: see if this helps: http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/linux-driver-for-quickcam-usb-cameras-logitech-quickcam-fusion/

[15:42] <doleyb> meatbun: it was easier for me to get chrome to use html5 than to make firefox do it.
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: if you get effects your video card is running fine, if you get your terminal back then you do not have video card drivers running

[15:48] <doleyb> doogxela: maybe apt-get --download-only, then run dpkg on that package

[15:48] <llutz> hmw: xset
[15:48] <karan> is debian better than ubuntu?
[15:48] <karan> like faster..
[15:49] <erUSUL> karan: ##linux
[15:49] <vivid> its the same thing karan
[15:49] <hmw> llutz: thanks, i'll check it out
[15:49] <karan> wat erusel?
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i set that in xorg.conf personally
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> karan: depends entirely on confi
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> g
[15:49] <karan> ok
[15:49] <vivid> older packages, same system, speed is dependent on how much crap you have running
[15:49] <antimicrosoft314> karan: I see no diffrence, but I prefer KDE3 so that's why sometimes I use Debian, because KDE4 is in Ubuntu
[15:49] <rohithwiz23> doleyb:I can't find the OpenVC thou..
[15:49] <karan> what is the fastest linux distro..gnome based
[15:49] <huntix> Guyz why i dont have sound i Counter Strike
[15:49] <huntix> ??
[15:49] <letalis> is there an effective way to get the real-time kernel to play nice in multitasking situations? i like the performance boost it gives but it seems that after a while X hangs if you have it juggling many things at once
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> karan: i could nistall a minimal ubuntu and compare to a full kde desktop with compiz running
[15:50] <hmw> ActionParsnip: actually, I just want to get rid of it
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> karan: the minimal one WILL be faster and both are ubuntu
[15:50] <vivid> karan, there is no fastest gnome based distro, its dependent on what you have running, ##linux
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> hmw: there are server flags in xorg.conf you can set to disable sleep etc tect
[15:51] <hmw> ActionParsnip: i see. Thanks!
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> hmw: http://pastebin.com/sBqw8Kg5
[15:51] <doleyb> rohithwiz23: maybe try http://dircweb.king.ac.uk/reason/opencv_cvs.php#Hardy
[15:51] <Megrem> abhi_nav: i think it's a problem of my system.. see the error: http://pastebin.com/gEEQxjfY
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> hmw: thats mine from my desktop
[15:51] <vivid> hmw, youre probably looking for xset s off and xset dpms 0 0 0
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> hmw: note the server flags ;)
[15:52] <hmw> ActionParsnip: oh, nice. thanks. vivid: thanks, too. Both: Is it a bug of the GUI? I mean, i set "never"
[15:52] <vivid> hmw, no, gnome has screensaver, and so does the Xserver
[15:52] <vivid> redundant but they both exist
[15:52] <rohithwiz23> doleyb: Im running 9.10
[15:52] <hmw> vivid: uhm.... "ok"
[15:52] <ksbalaji> emergency: GDM failed on boot up. I somehow forced gdm on device 1. How to restore please?
[15:53] <abhi_nav> Megrem: i dont have that much technical knowledge. ask someone else :-(
[15:53] <doogxela> rohithwiz23: There doesn't seem to be a package for OpenCV. You will have to install the program from source.  For some odd reason my / directory is 2.4gb in size
[15:54] <vivid> Megrem, do you have your linux-source and linux-headers packages installed?
[15:54] <rohithwiz23> doogxela: Do I need compilers if so where can I get them?
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> hmw: if you make one, it will be obeyed
[15:54] <hmw> ActionParsnip: too much magic goin on today
[15:54] <Slyboots> I have *no* idea why.. how can I track down what is using up all the drive-space? (From the CLI)
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> hmw: exactly :)
[15:55] <Megrem> well i did, but i think i've made a mistake
[15:55] <wrapster> i have vlc player installed but unable to play movies off dvd discs...
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: cd /; du -la | less
[15:55] <abhi_nav> Megrem:
[15:55] <vivid> that error is telling you that you kernel source is missing headers, its likely you dont have them installed
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> wrapster: install libdvdcss2 from medibuntu repo
[15:55] <Megrem> what to do?
[15:56] <Pici> !who
[15:56] <wrapster> ActionParsnip: could you please give me the source.lst for that?
[15:56] <Slyboots> ActionParsnip: Uh.. what?
[15:56] <ActionParsnip> !medibuntu | wrapster
[15:56] <vivid> Megrem, 'sudo apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-generic'
[15:56] <erUSUL> vivid: « sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) »
[15:56] <vivid> then try the build again
[15:56] <doogxela> doleyb: If I use download only, it won't keep it up to date, will it?
[15:56] <Slyboots> So I just have to sort through the thousands of files one page at a time x.x?!
[15:56] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: it will list ALL the files and their folder sizes in command line, look for large folders
[15:56] <doleyb> doogxela: that's probably true!
[15:56] <Slyboots> God that'll take an age x.x
[15:57] <vivid> the metapackage should take care of that for him, but either will work im sure
[15:57] <Slyboots> Is there not a way to just show the largest files/directories?
[15:57] <karan> deos xfce support compiz?
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: i also recommend you run: uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux-image    the first line is your CURRENT kernel, the rest are the INSTALLED kernels. You can remove the unused kernels to free up space
[15:57] <erUSUL> Slyboots: du -xs * | sort -rn | head
[15:57] <Slyboots> Arnt those on /boot?
[15:57] <doogxela> rohithwiz23: You probably already have a compiler installed, but if you don't, gcc is what you would want. Then you will need CMake to build the application.
[15:57] <erUSUL> Slyboots: du -xs /* | sort -rn | head
[15:57] <vivid> i swear karan is just trolling o.O
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> karan: yes, compiz will replace the WM only, you will still use the xfce DE
[15:57] <erUSUL> Slyboots: keep descending in the fs tree
[15:58] <Megrem> vivid: downloading right now 1:30 remaining
[15:58] <Slyboots> Hmm.. "var" is 500mb
[15:58] <karan> how am i trolling
[15:58] <karan> vivid!
[15:58] <karan> lol
[15:58] <rohithwiz23> doogxela: Is there any way to give my user all the rights root user has?
[15:58] <suleman> can i get help abt WIRESHARK in here?
[15:58] <erUSUL> Slyboots: /var/log/
[15:59] <Slyboots> Nope.. just a few 100k files
[15:59] <erUSUL> Slyboots: du -xs /var/* | sort -rn | head
[16:00] <Slyboots> Yea, there is a 400mb "archive" folder in /var/cache/apt/
[16:00] <karan> whats the direcotry that holds all my background images
[16:00] <vivid> rohithwiz23, you can gain root rights by using 'sudo'
[16:00] <Nollog> Where's gloom?
[16:00] <doogxela> rohithwiz23: You could, but don't do it. If you need something to run as root, use sudo.
[16:00] <Slyboots> Is it safe to delete that?
[16:00] <erUSUL> Slyboots: sudo apt-get clean
[16:00] <daniskami> Slyboots: it's better to do "aptitude clean"
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: sudo apt-get clean
[16:00] <rohithwiz23> doogxela: In the terminal
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: also install bleacbit and run it as user and root, it will clean lots of stuff (close as MANY apps as you can)
[16:01] <Nollog> Isn't aptitude just apt-get with a text gui?
[16:01] <suleman> wireshark help
[16:01] <Nollog> I hate aptitude.
[16:01] <AndyGraybeal> is there a way to disable screensavers system-wide?
[16:01] <erUSUL> suleman: make the actual question
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> Nollog: then use apt-get, both are fnie
[16:01] <vivid> i still fail to see why aptitude is better than apt-get
[16:01] <Nollog> I do.
[16:01] <daniskami> Nollog: not if you supply cli arguments
[16:01] <Slyboots> Hmm.. okay, going to need space to cleanup first
[16:01]  * ksbalaji is away: Away
[16:01] <Megrem> vivid: next error: http://pastebin.com/AAKvCqMV
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> Slyboots: the apt-get clean will make things a bit better
[16:01] <daniskami> vivid: if you use it with arguments, it behaves just like apt-get; if you don't supply arguments, you have a curses gui
[16:01] <Slyboots> Yea, freed up 200mb :)
[16:02] <Nollog> apt-get autoremove is nice too.
[16:02] <jerroome> hello, I'm trying to customize an ubunut
[16:02] <Nollog> Where's gloom? :(
[16:02] <knittl> hi. can please someone point me to a good guide on setting up hibernate in eclipse?
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> Nollog: sudo apt-get --purge remove `deborphan`    is nice too ;)
[16:02] <doogxela> rohithwiz23: Let's say you need to run "apt-get install gcc" as root. You would type "sudo apt-get install gcc". It would then ask you for your password, then run the program as root.
[16:02] <Nollog> ActionParsnip: too much to type. :P
[16:02] <vivid> Megrem, im sorry, i cant read german
[16:03] <Slyboots> I think I ay just have to make / bigger o.o
[16:03] <Slyboots> I though 2.4gb would be plenty..
[16:03] <vivid> though i honestly wish i could
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> Nollog: you can copy and paste to and from the terminal
[16:03] <doogxela> So does anyone know how to tell apt that you have already installed a dependency from source, so it doesn't try to install it from the repository?
[16:03] <abhi_nav> AndyGraybeal go to sestem=>preferences=>screensaver and uncheck activate screensaver when computer is idle

[16:03] <rohithwiz23> doogxela: I tried doing this but i get the following error: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[16:03] <Megrem> vivid: well there are errors while configuring g15daemon and g15macro
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> !fixapt | rohithwiz23
[16:04] <Slyboots> huh, Just got to fiure out how to resize it now without killing the raid
[16:04] <AndyGraybeal> abhi_nav: does this work for other users systemwide?
[16:04] <Nollog> ActionParsnip: Not I! I'm in several different locations at once using vnc+ssh. I'm going through about 5 computers. :D
[16:04] <doogxela> rohithwiz23: that means you already have a package manager running. You need to close Synaptic.
[16:04] <abhi_nav> rohithwiz23 i have that error usualy when more than on instances os apt, synaptic etc are running
[16:04] <suleman> can any 1 help me with WIRESHARK On ubuntu
[16:04] <abhi_nav> AndyGraybeal no (I think)
[16:04] <jerroome> hello, I'm trying to customize an ubuntu desktop live cd. I'm following the explanations at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization but I don't understand why my modifications inside /usr/share/initramfs-tools/casper aren't taken into account when I boot my customized system. I changed the username and password, but ths system still logs in with the default ubuntu account. Does anyone know what I have to do so that my new
[16:04] <jerroome> user is taken into account. Thank you very much !!

[16:05] <knittl> hi. can please someone point me to a good guide on setting up hibernate in eclipse?
[16:05] <vivid> theadmin, gnome-shell --replace &

[16:06] <vivid> no
[16:06] <abhi_nav> knittl: #eclipse
[16:06] <theadmin> Megrem: gnome-terminal is not gnome-shell lolz
[16:06] <vivid> add that line to System>Administration>Startup Applications to have it take effect when you log in
[16:06] <Megrem> well thought so :P
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: do you mean the gnome DE?
[16:06] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: I mean the "gnome-shell" package
[16:07] <wrapster> ActionParsnip: still the same issue.
[16:07] <knittl> abhi_nav: well, #eclipse either don't give an answer or say 'ask in #ubuntu'
[16:07] <wrapster> ActionParsnip: ""
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: not heard of it, mind you i dont use gnome
[16:07] <abhi_nav> knittl: ok then

[16:08] <tt_> hey silly sounding question, is there a program installed or that I can get easy so I can just flip a movie 180 degrees upside down
[16:08] <wrapster> ActionParsnip: yes
[16:09] <llutz> tt_: "convert" from imagemagick
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> wrapster: you may need libdvdread with some extra stuff. try: apt-cache search libdvdread     see what comes out
[16:09] <AndyGraybeal> is the upcoming 10.04 LTS going to use Bacula as it's recommended backup application?

[16:09] <tt_> llutz, do I go to site or is it in package manager?
[16:09] <mummp> I know this is totally offtopic, but does anyone know how to insert a text generated from an external php into actionscript 3? Maybe you could forward me to a better channel?
[16:10] <AndyGraybeal> seanbrystone:  :)
[16:10] <moijk> if I install 32-bit, can I upgrade to 64-bit if I add more than 4gb of ram at some point?
[16:10] <AndyGraybeal> erUSUL: thank you
[16:10] <llutz> tt_: install from repos
[16:10] <llutz> tt_: sudo aptitude install imagemagick
[16:11] <doogxela> Does anyone know how to tell apt that you have already installed a dependency from source, so it doesn't try to install it from the repository?
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> moijk: you can use the PAE enabled kernel and access a lot more ram instead
[16:11] <vivid> moijk, you can install more than 4gb of ram in a 32bit system by using the linux-image-generic-pae kernel
[16:11] <tt_> thank you
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> moijk: saves messing with reinstalls
[16:11] <rollin> hello
[16:11] <erUSUL> !pae

[16:12] <rohithwiz23> How do I browse the root file with out going loging into the root user?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> doogxela: if you compile the source then make a deb from it, then install the deb it will appear to apt-get
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> !dvd | wrapster
[16:12] <erUSUL> !sudo | rohithwiz23
[16:13] <tt_> llutz, how do I open it now, sorry
[16:13] <vivid> doogxela, you can also use synaptic to lock the version of a specific package so that it wont be upgraded by the repos
[16:13] <suleman> knittl, i thought u were a pro
[16:13] <llutz> tt_: its a commandline tool,read "man convert"
[16:13] <knittl> suleman: who said that?
[16:13] <suleman> knittl, i take my words back
[16:13] <knittl> wtf?

[16:17] <ActionParsnip> rohithwiz23: websearch for ppa search    somebody may have already compiled it and you can add their repo and install from it

[16:26] <CommonSense> Hi
[16:26] <noise_> can i use quantum on Gnome
[16:26] <noise_> ?
[16:26] <vivid> go go quantum tunneling
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> jessy90: i think you will have to make a command which the screensaver may be able to execute, you will need a linux native screensaver, not a windows one as they are for windows and ubuntu is not windows
[16:27] <fleixius> Anyone have any idea why all my fonts are SMALL for kde apps under gnome?
[16:27] <CommonSense> Is there anyway I can tell terminal to run a certain thing at a certain time, for example if I wanted to run a script for a wiki bot while I was abroad with no internet connection, but I had my machine on at home?
[16:27] <mpweitekamp> I'm updating my graphic driver following instructions, but I'm stuck on step two.

[16:27] <xangua> fleixius: install 'qt4 config' and set your qt apps preferences there
[16:27] <Stargaze> ha
[16:27] <llutz> CommonSense: use cron or at (atd)
[16:27] <mpweitekamp> how do i access that?
[16:28] <CommonSense> llutz: Will that work on a normal install?
[16:28] <Elad> what is a good program for Streaming Videos?
[16:28] <HexRex> thanks
[16:28] <llutz> CommonSense: cron will, not sure if atd is installed by default
[16:28] <fleixius> xangua: I'll give that a shot 1 sec
[16:28] <zetsumei> I'm seriously getting pissed off at ubuntuforums -_-
[16:28] <CommonSense> llutz: can you give me an example command line for that?
[16:28] <jessy90> ActionParsnip,   you can make a screensaver Linux native
[16:28] <Elad> I am attempting to setup a media server and have read about a lot of them, and am wondering what is recommended
[16:28] <Stargaze> how come zetsumei ?
[16:29] <Elad> as far as the actual program is concerned
[16:29] <zetsumei> 64 views and no answers.
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> mpweitekamp: we cant understand that, use a pastebin, it wont scroll the chanel and will be readbale
[16:29] <mpweitekamp> Where do i add/find options to  sections in xorg.conf??
[16:29] <Stargaze> Elad, try Boxee
[16:29] <fleixius> xangua: So the font size is 14 pt but the overall resolution of the application looks to be enormouse, as the text remains small.
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Elad: vlc
[16:29] <Stargaze> zetsumei, perhaps nobody knows the answer or there is no answer
[16:29] <mpweitekamp> actionparsnip: questioned
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> jessy90: possibly
[16:29] <Elad> ActionParsnip, vlc is a server? I always thought it was just a player
[16:30] <llutz> CommonSense: "at 22:45 <enter>" "yourscript <enter>" ctrl-d
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Elad: sure it can run as a streaming server
[16:30] <jessy90> ActionParsnip,  I can help
[16:30] <CommonSense> llutz: Would that work for 2 files?
[16:30] <noise_> CAN I USE QUANTUM IN GNOME?!?>!?!?!?!?!?!
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Elad: its a lot more than a simple player, unfortunately it only uses one core
[16:30] <Stargaze> !caps| noise_
[16:30] <om26er> !caps | noise_
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> jessy90: by all means go for it
[16:30] <CommonSense> llutz: and I'm guessing it works for python <script>?
[16:30] <llutz> CommonSense: make 2 jobs or chain the commands using "&&" or ";"
[16:30] <Elad> ActionParsnip, I have an older machine withonly 1 core so it is fine
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Elad: just a note of interest :)
[16:31] <noise_> can someone answer my question ??
[16:31] <Pici> noise_: Perhaps you should explain what quantum is, I for one have never heard of it.
[16:31] <zetsumei> I create the bootable flash drive, boot into it and select the first option (try ubuntu with) and it just hangs at a black screen. It's been hanging for about 15mins now. I can hit ctrl+alt+del to reboot it, but that's all I can do. Any idea what's going on?
[16:31] <zetsumei> Netbook is a Gateway LT2106U.
[16:31] <mpweitekamp> Where do i add/find options to  sections in xorg.conf??
[16:31] <noise_> htlm editor

[16:31] <llutz> CommonSense: your script has to be executable, doesn't matter if python, perl, basic
[16:32] <Elad> Stargaze, does boxee stream over a LAN or does it need to be hooked to the TV?
[16:32] <noise_> yes
[16:32] <Pici> !who
[16:32] <erUSUL> mpweitekamp: man xorg.conf and man <driver>
[16:32] <AceKing> vivid, I figured out the problem with the partitions on my hard drive. I ran chkdsk and the disk had errors. I am now able to resize the partition
[16:32] <Stargaze> Elad, cannot tell, my brother uses and I don't see him often ;)
[16:32] <Elad> Stargaze, well thank you for the info
[16:32] <mpweitekamp> erUSUL: don't know what that means.. :/
[16:32] <CommonSense> llutz: 2 different scripts, run the log on file first, then the script to do the job it needs to
[16:32] <vivid> AceKing, glad to hear youve gotten it figured out
[16:33] <AceKing> vivid, thanks for your help before
[16:33] <vivid> no problem
