[06:16] <juk> tripelb: dont be naive
[06:16] <dunmanifestin> anybody??
[06:16] <andruHA1123> Hey guys, can anyone tell me why xubuntu is super slow on an older computer, but is really fast in a VMware with the same specs?
[06:16] <ilea> how to add little gadgets on the desktop like a clock, a cpu meeter and a weather gadget?
[06:16] <dunmanifestin> ilea thats easy, just download screenlets
[06:17] <dunmanifestin> im assuming your using ubuntu, you will find it in the package manager
[06:18] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Probably because of video drivers?
[06:18] <ilea> thanks dunmanifestin
[06:18] <juk> tripelb:not sure what you mean in your second sentence
[06:18] <ohzie> andruHA1123: if you have an older computer don't use compositing on xfce. It defeats the purpose of xfce on a slower computer. ( ,_,)
[06:18] <dunmanifestin> no probs ilea. i cannot get my application switcher to work
[06:18] <andruHA1123> ohzie, can i install drivers manually? if so, how?
[06:18] <tripelb> juk, I mean thanks but not right now. I am walking someone through using transmission.
[06:19] <ohzie> andruHA1123: what version of xubuntu are you using?
[06:19] <dunmanifestin> Ive installed compiz, tried to get the cube thingy to work. now the alt tab thing wont work
[06:19] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: how about ubuntu + awesome
[06:20] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i installed Xubuntu as it seemed to use the least ram and still be very functional
[06:20] <RJ_F1> lol. gotta love how chanserv just hands over ops to rww, and rww gives back.
[06:20] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, is that a distro?
[06:20] <juk> tripelb: ah, "spread the word" , nice :)
[06:20] <RJ_F1> dunmanifestin: have you got emerald?
[06:20] <dunmanifestin> no I dont, do i need it?
[06:20] <RJ_F1> I believe so
[06:21] <RJ_F1> do a quick sudo apt-get install emerald
[06:21] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, btw, im new to linux ;P, but learning, so bear with me
[06:21] <RJ_F1> in a terminal
[06:21] <ohzie> RJ_F1: It's generally good practice to only use ops when you need it. That behavior is especially such on freenode, because most people here use sudo and su. =)
[06:21] <dunmanifestin> im on it
[06:21] <ohzie> so, it becomes habiual
[06:21] <ohzie> habitual*
[06:21] <RJ_F1> what, running stuff as root?
[06:22] <dunmanifestin> dowloading..
[06:22] <phreck> huh
[06:23] <kriume> help please what do i do here to continue? hitting enter or try to press the "Ok" button on there doesent work!!!! picture: http://bildr.no/image/841377.jpeg
[06:23] <andruHA1123> ohzie, what distro would you recommend for a computer with 256mbs of ram and 1.2ghz cpu? (im trying to make something like a fileserver with this old PC, but need gui)
[06:23] <xangua> kriume: hit tab
[06:23] <dunmanifestin> something about a firmware-b4343-installer?
[06:23] <ohzie> kriume: click the window for focus and then try to select the ok button with the keyboard
[06:24] <kriume> xangua: haha ok! it worked lol
[06:24] <xangua> !lubuntu  | andruHA1123
[06:24] <ohzie> kriume: xangua's suggestion of tab it on the money
[06:24] <RJ_F1> andru: I would say, Lubuntu
[06:24] <win189> umm question i know this sounds stuped
[06:24] <phreck> andruHA1123, not ubuntu desktop
[06:24] <kriume> its installing now ;P
[06:24] <win189> what is the 755 number for Read and list only
[06:24] <vitorh2m> boa noite
[06:24] <vitorh2m> melhor dizendo
[06:24] <vitorh2m> bom dia
[06:24] <xangua> !pt | vitorh2m
[06:24] <durando> hey guys i have a Marvell 88SE6145 and cant get it to work with ubuntu server at least i beleive this is whats causing issues with booting correctly etc
[06:24] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Ubuntu, even xubuntu, is not good for old things unless you install ubuntu-server than then put a bare minimum gui on top of that.
[06:24] <andruHA1123> phreck, the thing is that i won't be able to configure everything via terminal.. im kinda a newb in linux
[06:24] <SuperPaco69> how can I hack?
[06:25] <dunmanifestin> sub process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) it says.. that keeps coming up
[06:25] <xangua> SuperPaco69: read and study a lot
[06:25] <ohzie> andruHA1123: I'd suggest ubuntu-server and aptitude install blackbox
[06:25] <ohzie> and go from there
[06:25] <bazhang> SuperPaco69, hack what
[06:25] <RJ_F1> you could install u. server, and then install Xfce on it, which is a lighter version of gnome.
[06:25] <ohzie> SuperPaco69: Be awesome
[06:25] <win189> whats the chmod for Read and list
[06:25] <RJ_F1> essentially create a xubuntu-server
[06:25] <ohzie> win189: there's no list. list is read on the directory
[06:25] <win189> !chmod
[06:25] <SuperPaco69> that is right!
[06:26] <andruHA1123> ohzie, what is blackbox? like a lightweight gui?
[06:26] <Vituz> probably not the right place to come for help regarding this.. but recently upgraded to Natty and somehow broke Vuze... I've tried replacing libswt-gtk-3.5-java already to no avail
[06:26] <dunmanifestin> exit
[06:26] <ohzie> andruHA1123:  very very lightweight gui. It's too lightweight for most people to tolerate. That or tdm are going to be your best friends if you absolutely need some sort of GUI......
[06:26] <win189> nvm i figured it out its 555
[06:26] <bazhang> Vituz, #ubuntu+1 for natty
[06:26] <ohzie> Vituz: :(
[06:26] <Vituz> thanks
[06:27] <RJ_F1> hey, quick question about that, how we get the beta?
[06:27] <ohzie> andruHA1123: out of curiosity, what is the GUI needed for?
[06:27] <Vituz> I doubt its a natty issue anyway
[06:27] <Vituz> I think its a java issue
[06:27] <rww> RJ_F1: ask in #ubuntu+1 ;)
[06:27] <Vituz> but thanks for redirecting me so quickly :)
[06:27] <jiltdil> sacarlson: ok i more ques i have to acess other comp in WAN how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it?
[06:27] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i will need it to set up what I need.. I don't know how to do everything in terminal
[06:29] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Weeeelllllll what things are you doing setup in the GUI, and maybe I can point you in the right direction of where to learn? =) Blackbox+vnc server are going to be great fallbacks if you need the gui, but SSH is faster and runs a lot lighter. :3
[06:29] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Not plugging the OMG GUI ON A SERVER thing, I don't judge, I'm just saying that help is aailable. =P
[06:29] <ohzie> available*
[06:29] <jiltdil> i have to acess other comp in WAN how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it?
[06:29] <jiltdil> using ssh
[06:29] <SuperPaco69> any one know how to hack voip sip protocol with ubuntu?
[06:29] <casey> hey guys. i need some serious help. I am getting VERY frustrated. First and foremost, every time I try to access my home folder via the panel on top, it says error. This happens with documents, computer etc. Please help me find out why this happening.
[06:30] <juk> !please
[06:30] <andruHA1123> ohzie, oh, i would probably uninstall gui once im done configuring what i need
[06:30] <ohzie> casey: Well, what kind of error?
[06:31] <casey> i'll copy verbatum. hold on just a sec
[06:31] <jiltdil> i have to acess other comp in WAN through ssh  how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it
[06:31] <casey> Error: File can not be found
[06:31] <casey> however, is i navigate to it by other means, the file is indeed there.
[06:31] <casey> I just don't know how the path could have got messed up?
[06:32] <andruHA1123> anyway, thanks for the help guys..
[06:32] <cryptodira> i was expecting a password prompt to activate the fglrx drivers.... instead, i get "you are not authorized to perform this action"... what would be the proper cli syntax?
[06:33] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: instal
[06:33] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: install ubuntu live cd
[06:33] <casey> any ideas on why the path could have gotten messed up?
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: I had this problem before on an older install
[06:34] <ohzie> my hard drive was not working very well
[06:34] <htat> When both me and my bro switched to Ubuntu (months apart), we noticed internet took a while longer to respond. I tried disabling the thing that searches for IPv6, but I still get that lag time while "looking up <servername>". what else might be wrong?
[06:34] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, and?
[06:34] <ohzie> it would sort of work sometimes and not work other times.
[06:34] <casey> ohzie: how did you fix it?
[06:34] <casey> it's driving me nuts
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: =\ I reinstalled ubuntu.
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: I back up all my stuff so often that I don't even mess with stuff like that
[06:34] <casey> :(
[06:34] <ohzie> *boom*
[06:34] <ohzie> I'm just like
[06:35] <casey> are you sure thats the only way?
[06:35] <ohzie> casey: Oh surely it isn't. I just didn't bother trying to find the way to do it, because I was lazy and needed my computer to work and didn't want to spend time fixing it.
[06:36] <casey> oh ok
[06:36] <casey> well i guess i'll look more into it
[06:36] <casey> i'm getting so frustrated with all of this
[06:36] <andruHA1123> how about this, whats the lightest linux distro that can run FireFox and OpenOffice?
[06:36] <ohzie> casey: How long have you been using linux?
[06:36] <ohzie> andruHA1123: DSL
[06:36] <casey> ohzie: by any chance, do you know how to use wine to run photoshop 7?
[06:36] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: and don't open 3D，that will work fine
[06:37] <casey> ohzie: about 3 weeks. I'm a big noobie.
[06:37] <cryptodira> i was expecting a password prompt to activate the fglrx drivers.... instead, i get "you are not authorized to perform this action"... what would be the proper cli syntax?    10.10 amd/64
[06:37] <xangua> you can try in #Linux to make polls andruHA1123
[06:37] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i tried dsl and it wouldn't run latest firefox...
[06:37] <ohzie> casey: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1336 It seems to run fine out of the box.
[06:38] <BlackWeb> Does anyone know if theres a way to defragment a harddrive on linux, My HD use to be only 25% full then Copied alot of backup stuff on it and it went to 60% Full, Which I erased it and its still showed and being 60% Full, I also tried booting into another linux system and running fsck on the HD but still didnt solve the problem
[06:38] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: that means dont install display driver
[06:38] <xangua> i've alrady told you !lubuntu is an option
[06:38] <skulltip> ohzie - better question is which window manager is best to run those
[06:38] <casey> ohzie: isn't that just a trial though?
[06:38] <lickalott> gents...  anyone in here running a znc on ubuntu 10.10 and have successfully used an ipv6 tunnel through tunnelbroker?
[06:38] <casey> or can i use it to enter my product key?
[06:38] <andruHA1123> xangua, thanks, im downloading that already
[06:38] <skulltip> sorry meant andruHA1123
[06:38] <andruHA1123> just looking for option
[06:38] <ohzie> casey: you should be able to put in the product key
[06:39] <lickalott> znc doesn't really matter
[06:39] <TodMore> how do I install two versions of an application, like opera 9 and opera 10 without simply upgrading to 10?
[06:39] <TodMore> can that be done with deb packages?
[06:39] <casey> ohzie: awesome. Thanks for the help. Any ideas on where to point me with the other issue we were taking about?
[06:40] <ohzie> TodMore: I would suggest installing the binary for the second version separarely.
[06:40] <ohzie> TodMore: and not using a deb
[06:40] <BlackWeb> Is there a way to defragment harddrive with ubuntu
[06:40] <dunmanifestin> I have emerald and all the compiz updates but none of my application switchers will work
[06:40] <TodMore> ohzie: so you mean look for a tarball or whatever install?
[06:41] <ohzie> casey: None at all. What I CAN say is that I've had less problems with Ubuntu than I've had with FC and Mandrake, and that Ubuntu is "where it's at" as they say.
[06:41] <ohzie> TodMore: Yes
[06:41] <ohzie> casey: So stick to this distro! Don't be swayed! :P
[06:41] <TodMore> ohzie: thank
[06:42] <casey> ohzie: well i'm glad I at least went with the right linux distro lol ;P. Not just to get "hip" with this linux stuff as they say.
[06:42] <dunmanifestin> how do I get these features to work? application switcher? static aplication switcher? desktop cube?
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <FloodBot3> ubotttu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:43] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin do you have your video card installed
[06:43] <leaveboy> casey: distro ？？ what's it mean?
[06:43] <casey> ohzie: Got to go but thanks for the help :D!
[06:43] <casey> leaveboy: stands for distrubution :D
[06:43] <casey> got to go
[06:43] <BlackWeb> leaveboy its the distribution of linux your using
[06:43] <casey> catch you guys later
[06:43] <dunmanifestin> um where do I get drivers for it blackweb? its an ati radeon x1200 if that helps
[06:44] <lickalott> dunmanifestin - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts
[06:44] <lickalott> 1/4 the way down
[06:44] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin have you tried googling, what version of ubuntu you using
[06:45] <dunmanifestin> I have spent the whole night googling.. ubuntu 10.10 x64
[06:45] <BlackWeb> in order to get your compiz to work need to install video card then enable desktop effects by right clicking on screen
[06:45] <ohzie> I see a lot of AMD laptops using the ATI 4250's.  Like, last time I tried an ATI graphics card with linux was a 9700 Pro. It was feelsbadman.jpg all over the place.
[06:45] <PrinceKhaled> hello everyone, i am new to ubuntu and i need someone to help me configure my graphic driver
[06:45] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin one sec I'll search
[06:45] <rww> ohzie: I'm using a HD3450. Works fine for me.
[06:45] <ohzie> But I'd like to not shell out the extra money for a laptop with an nvidia card unless I have to
[06:45] <ohzie> rww: Oh? No weird driver issues?
[06:45] <PrinceKhaled> Please i need this help
[06:46] <BlackWeb> Princekhaled what graphics card
[06:46] <PrinceKhaled> ATI
[06:46] <rww> ohzie: nope. Had no issues with xserver-xorg-video-radeon (the free software driver). fglrx (the non-free one) is a pain in the backside, though.
[06:46] <dunmanifestin> 	thanks alot blackweb.. I know the shortcuts lickalott they dont work
[06:47] <PrinceKhaled> built in
[06:47] <ohzie> rww: Ahhh
[06:47] <PrinceKhaled> lap top: Toshiba satellite A505-s6005
[06:47] <BlackWeb> Princekhaled, run lspci | grep VGA in terminal and paste results
[06:48] <PrinceKhaled> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[06:48] <leaveboy> BlackWeb: 3q
[06:49] <PrinceKhaled> Black web?
[06:49] <PrinceKhaled> still there?
[06:49] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin, still searching for a driver for you, With ubuntu then the default is fglrx
[06:50] <BlackWeb> princekhaled, ya you using ubuntu 10.10 also
[06:50] <PrinceKhaled> yes
[06:50] <dunmanifestin> apparently this xserver thing is meant to work but maybe theres some kind of conflict
[06:50] <mix22891> there is a C# programming program in linux?
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> yes
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> try mono
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> mix22891,
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> try mono
[06:52] <BlackWeb> the thing is with linux and new version of linux then when they come out with a new version then theres time that you sometimes have to wait for someone to make a driver for the updated version, or you can resort older version such as 10.04 but still searching
[06:52] <mix22891> yes?
[06:52] <mix22891> ok
[06:52] <mix22891> thanks
[06:53] <mix22891> MonoDevlop?

[06:53] <linuxuz3r> yes
[06:53] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin go here http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.12&lang=English
[06:53] <mix22891> ok thanks
[06:54] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin download that driver through ati and install it and see if that fixes your graphics
[06:54] <juk> BlackWeb: what drivers are you talking about?
[06:54] <BlackWeb> juk drivers for his graphics card
[06:54] <BlackWeb> he'
[06:54] <mix22891> COCO JAMBO
[06:55] <PrinceKhaled> are you gonna look for one for me?
[06:55] <BlackWeb> he's trying to enable desktop effects and not gonna work unless his graphics are up
[06:55] <PrinceKhaled> i am not sure what is my problem
[06:55] <PrinceKhaled> i can give you an access through teamviewer if you want
[06:56] <jiltdil> i have two guest os soto acess one from other i activate bridge mode under network option in virtual box but now when i want to acess my host os it is not acessing through guest whhile when th evirtual box setting is in nat mode the  host is acessed.at this point m able to acess my guest os also through host but vice versa not possible.why ?
[06:56] <BlackWeb> ya, have you also tried to enable visual effects and not have it work
[06:57] <PrinceKhaled> are you asking me?
[06:57] <BlackWeb> ya
[06:57] <PrinceKhaled> no, i am trying to run a 3d video game
[06:58] <juk> BlackWeb: you dont have to wait for someone making driver... anyway, just need to recompile module
[06:58] <jiltdil> any sol to my question?
[06:58] <Akshay> Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu...
[06:58] <Akshay> I have Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller
[06:59] <BlackWeb> ya its coo

[07:00] <jiltdil>  i have two guest os soto acess one from other i activate bridge mode under network option in virtual box but now when i want to acess my host os it is not acessing through guest whhile when th evirtual box setting is in nat mode the  host is acessed.at this point m able to acess my guest os also through host but vice versa not possible.why ?while when i was in nat seeting under virtual box i eaisly acessed the host.
[07:00] <ruan> Akshay: do you see an option under System >administration for Additional Drivers or Hardware Drivers?
[07:00] <BlackWeb> Well everyone, you all have a good night and good Weekend
[07:01] <Akshay> No, none.
[07:01] <ruan> hmm
[07:02] <ruan> Akshay: im not sure if this should be done, but i looked at intel's website and found some drivers
[07:03] <Akshay> I have it for my windows, don't know much abt linux.
[07:03] <ruan> http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Desktop+graphics+controllers&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+82865G+Graphics+and+Memory+Controller+Hub+%28GMCH%29
[07:03] <visual1ce> hi
[07:04] <win189> ok i dont get this i cant get windows to see the server
[07:04] <visual1ce> my panel is a bit wonky... how can i reset it but keep my customisations?
[07:04] <visual1ce> like my launchers and such
[07:04] <bazhang> visual1ce, a reset will give default
[07:05] <visual1ce> so i need to reboot?
[07:05] <Akshay> ruan:Which driver should I install??
[07:05] <bazhang> visual1ce, what about turning off compiz
[07:06] <ruan> Akshay: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=8203&ProdId=1044&lang=eng
[07:06] <visual1ce> what about killall gnome-panel?
[07:07] <Akshay> I previously has screen resolution of 1152x864
[07:07] <Akshay> Now in ubuntu I'm havung 1024x768
[07:07] <ruan> as i said, im not sure if this should be done. have you updated ubuntu with update manager?
[07:08] <Akshay> No, I've installed abt 90 form about 360 updates it shows me.
[07:08] <dr_Willis> weird -  i couldent connect earlier due to some sasl issue..   but im good for now. :)
[07:08] <ruan> Akshay: are any of the updates shown related to graphics?
[07:09] <Akshay> ruan:Do I simply run the bash file from the archive.
[07:09] <ruan> Akshay: yes
[07:09] <win189> Can some one inform me as to what i need to do to make windows see my ubuntu samba
[07:10] <ruan> !samba
[07:10] <win189> i did what it says but windows wont see it
[07:11] <ruan> does ubuntu see windows?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> win189 You can try just right clicking on a folder, and select share, you have tried that?
[07:11] <win189> um if it was that easy i would have
[07:11] <Akshay> ruan:done!
[07:11] <bvierra|l> hey all, long time linux user... first time kubuntu user... first of all, can I ask questions about kubuntu in here?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> win189 it is that easy for my lan normally.
[07:11] <rww> bvierra|l: here or #kubuntu
[07:11] <dr_Willis> sometimes the right click share thing. does not install the samba servifes properl;y however.
[07:11] <bvierra|l> ahh ok cool thanks :) dont really have any questions yet, just figure that I will
[07:11] <Akshay> What next??
[07:12] <ruan> Akshay: if you can't change to the resolution yet, reboot
[07:12] <visual1ce> killall gnome-panel works perfectly
[07:12] <ruan> Akshay: if installation was successful
[07:12] <dr_Willis> win189 you coud edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and be sure the workgroups are correct also.  and try manualy entering the share paths.  \\serverip.number\sharename
[07:12] <Akshay> ok, be right back sfter reboot.
[07:12] <Akshay> *after
[07:13] <win189> ok if i muked up the install
[07:13] <win189> can i just uninstall and reinstall
[07:13] <win189> will it clear all the settings
[07:14] <ruan> win189: i think it might keep settings. i remember seeing folders of things i uninstalled
[07:14] <dr_Willis> win189 depends on what you mesed up.  what have you done  so far?  things are almost alwyas fixable...
[07:14] <dr_Willis> when in doubt backup system configs you are editing.
[07:14] <ruan> ^^
[07:15] <Akshay> ruan: No change, still can't find 1152x864
[07:15] <ruan> odd.
[07:16] <win189> i think i messed up the config
[07:16] <ruan> well the drivers were released in 2004
[07:16] <dr_Willis> win189 what did you change in the config exactly?  I nomrally only need to edit a few lines if the smb.conf file.
[07:16] <Akshay> Yes, this is a very old machine.
[07:17] <dr_Willis> !find smb.conf
[07:17] <ruan> Akshay: 82845G right?
[07:17] <dr_Willis> Hmm. all those packages must have example smb.conf files.
[07:17] <Akshay> No, 82865G
[07:18] <ruan> oh ok
[07:18] <jiltdil>  i have two guest os soto acess one from other i activate bridge mode under network option in virtual box but now when i want to acess my host os it is not acessing through guest whhile when th evirtual box setting is in nat mode the  host is acessed.at this point m able to acess my guest os also through host but vice versa not possible.why ?
[07:19] <ruan> Akshay: i googled and found http://absolutebeginner.wordpress.com/2006/07/26/installing-intel-815852855-graphics-controller-drivers-on-ubuntu-debian/
[07:19] <rohitvvv> I downloaded ubuntu 10.04 and burned it to pendrive using unetbootin. When I boot the system with pendrive as first boot it does not boot? any clue?
[07:20] <win189> rohitvvv
[07:20] <dr_Willis> rohitvv what does it do ecacxtly? theres tools other then unetbootin. the pendrivelinux web site has other tools.
[07:20] <win189> rohitvvv it some times dosent work the first time
[07:20] <dr_Willis> You could evne set up grub2 to boot iso files.
[07:20] <ruan> Akshay: sudo apt-get install alien
[07:20] <sensini> #cdkey
[07:21] <sensini> #cdkey

[07:21] <jmwpc> I'm stuck on a bash scripting problem. If I want to get the path portion of a file name into a variable (i.e. /home/myuser/music/somesong.mp3), how to do I get just the path?
[07:21] <bazhang> sensini, not here
[07:21] <win189> rohitvvv make shour to use ur f12 key to make it boot off of ur usb but if it dosent boot it could be a curuped download i sudjest the torrrent download and the tool listed on the site
[07:22] <ruan> sensini: who needs office 2010 when you have openoffice?
[07:22] <dr_Willis> jmwpc i recall there nbeing some commands in bash that do that.. the advanced bash scripting guide may give examples. Ive no tdone that task in ages.
[07:22] <dr_Willis> jmwpc i think one was called 'base'  or similer.
[07:22] <ruan> jmwpc: first read the docs, then go to #bash if you still have a problem
[07:23] <jmwpc> dr_Willis: I'll check that out... thanks
[07:23] <sensini> need office_2010_key, willing to do paypal transfer
[07:23] <llutz_> jmwpc: "dirname file"
[07:23] <Akshay> ruan:getting some error while downloading.
[07:23] <bazhang> sensini, not here stop asking

[07:24] <rww> sensini: freenode is not a filesharing network, and piracy is off-topic here.

[07:25] <sensini> cool thanks
[07:25] <Akshay> Do I change the download from Option.
[07:26] <rohitvvv> I went for an option to install ubuntu inside windows using wubi. After a few minutes it starts downloading the iso from the internet. I already have the iso downloaded.?
[07:26] <ruan> Akshay: Download from: (change server)
[07:27] <dr_Willis> rowitvv you really sure you want to be using wubi? Most people hate it.  I think you need the iso in th eproper location. and it will see it.,
[07:27] <dr_Willis> oops that was for askhakshay i think,,...
[07:27] <rohitvvv> I extracted the contents of the iso using winrar
[07:27] <rohitvvv> and then I had wubi inside it.
[07:27] <ruan> dr_Willis: it wasn't, lol
[07:28] <Akshay> raun:E: Couldn't find package alien
[07:28] <win189> sorry all i ben haveing a short temper all day
[07:28] <ruan> Akshay: did you run sudo apt-get update?
[07:28] <rww> !alien
[07:28] <dr_Willis> im on my android - by the timne i answer.. the question has scrolled off the top of the screen
[07:29] <Akshay> no.
[07:29] <ruan> hmm..
[07:29] <win189> rww is there a general chat can
[07:30] <win189> that ubuntu admin has setup
 Thanks for the hint. It worked. wubi has to be in the directory where iso resides. It works :)
[07:30] <ruan> Akshay: ok, install 915resolution instead
[07:30] <dr_Willis> i relly hate wubi...
[07:30] <rww> win189: #ubuntu-offtopic (and read the /topic when you go there)
[07:30] <Akshay> how??
 why so?
[07:30] <win189> k rww ty
[07:31] <dr_Willis> to many issues rohitvv. You may learn to hate it also.
[07:31] <dr_Willis> I would rather run in virtualbox then use wubi
[07:31] <rww> this ^
 But virtual box would run much slower
[07:32] <dr_Willis> but its more relieable...
[07:32] <Stryker> why don't u use grub?
[07:32] <juk> wubi helps spreading the word anyway...
[07:32] <dr_Willis> ive seen way way way to many 'wubi broke on me' questions in here
 I have a windows 7 installation. Need to get ubuntu installed. Wubi seemed to be a easier option.
[07:33] <dr_Willis> virtualbos is the easiest option.. :)
[07:33] <ohzie> I don't even know what wubi is. :3
[07:33] <ohzie> !wubi
[07:33] <ohzie> Oh dear lord no.jpg
[07:33] <ruan> lol
[07:33] <dr_Willis> for some machines. i run ubuntu from a flash drive these days..
[07:33] <geoffmcc> rohitvvv: dual booting win7 and ubuntu is a breeze
[07:34] <Akshay> ruan:can't find it in Synaptic Package Manager
[07:34] <Stryker> why not just partition, and use grub?
[07:34] <dr_Willis> I advise using caution and paranoia backups. when using wubi.
[07:34] <dr_Willis> I have seen windows 7 installs that use 4 primary partitions.. that can make installing ubuntu normally a big hassle.
[07:35] <ruan> 4 partitions?
[07:35] <Potato> At last i got my alpine working for me. Whatever be the case somebody should have responded whether you knew or not.
[07:35] <dr_Willis> Yes - i have seen win7 Installs using 4 Primary partitions.
[07:35] <geoffmcc> dr_Willis: good point
[07:35] <Potato> Anyways thank you guys!
[07:35] <Stryker> so rohitvvv has the primaries taken up? arent logical partitions compatible with linux unlike unix
 yes they are taken up
 I have ubuntu installed now using wubi in one of the logical partitions.
[07:36] <Akshay> ruan:Pls help me out.
[07:36] <ruan> Akshay: im confused as well :/
[07:36] <Stryker> i think it would be possible to create a logical partition and boot it with grub
[07:37] <lighta> it is Stryker
[07:37] <Stryker> !logical partition
[07:37] <Stryker> !logicalpartition
[07:37] <Stryker> i tried
 yes
[07:37] <lighta> wante to create some using windows or ubuntu ?
[07:37] <dr_Willis> Hmm.. wubi installs to a file. no tits own partition
[07:37] <lighta> !gparted
[07:37] <Akshay> ruan:looking at this guide
[07:37] <Akshay> http://goo.gl/PiyX
[07:38] <ruan> yeh wubi installs to a .disk file
[07:38] <Stryker> many logical partitions can be made, unlike primaries
[07:38] <rohitvvv> Okay guys thanks for the help will get back in touch from ubuntu. May be installing grub from ubuntu would be easy.
[07:38] <rohitvvv> Thanks
[07:39] <lighta> using it at application isn't the same as "real"
[07:39] <Stryker> rohitvvv,
[07:39] <Stryker> wait
 Yes
[07:39] <Stryker> i don't think u wanna use grub for a wubi install
[07:39] <Stryker> rohitvvv, that wouldn't make sense
[07:39] <dr_Willis> wubi does use grub. windpows chainloads it i think.
[07:39] <dr_Willis> from what little ive used wubi.. :)
 Okay.
[07:40] <ruan> i tried a wubi install but it didnt boot, so i made a livecd
[07:40] <Stryker> rohitvvv, it is bulky, and hard to undo if you don't have a fresh install of real ubuntu
 The issue is making a bootable pendrive has being a problem. It does not boot. Hence I went in for wubi.
[07:41] <Stryker> have u tried using unetbootin?
 I would love to go for a real ubuntu install. But the pendrive won't boot for reasons.  Yes I have tried unetbootin
[07:41] <Stryker> try an ubuntu server install
 It drops at some prompt and says the kernel is missing
[07:41] <iceroot> rohitvvv: some pendrives cant boot because of the logic how the data is randomly written to the pendrive, so the bootsector is moved on some sticks
[07:42] <dr_Willis> theres OTHER installer apps then Unetbootin..
 any work around
[07:42] <dr_Willis> pendrivelinux has info on proberly 5+ others
[07:42] <iceroot> rohitvvv: hm your issue is not because of the random write
[07:42] <Stryker> what do you even mean iceroot ?
 shall I download one app like unetbootin from pendrivelinux
[07:43] <iceroot> Stryker: pendrives are writting data randomly so you dont write the data alaways at the same place, bad pendrives are also writing the boot-sector randomly at some place on the stick
[07:43] <Stryker> i have myself made a previously uninstallible flavour work on a pendrive
[07:43] <dr_Willis> download and try them er.r.. ALL.. :) its not like they cost $$$
[07:43] <Akshay> ruan:Did you find any solution
[07:43] <iceroot> Stryker: its not often but some pendrives around there are not bootable
[07:43] <dr_Willis> You can always try making your own grub2 booting iso file pendrive
[07:44] <Stryker> iceroot, that is a filesystem, and program error
 Sure I will try one. Fingers crossed.
[07:44] <dr_Willis> ive had old pendrives now work wiht some old machines..
[07:44] <dr_Willis> not much issues with new ones.
[07:45] <Stryker> that is a point, but grub2 can boot from pendrive like dr_Willis said
[07:45] <Stryker> lol
[07:45] <ruan> Akshay: not yet
[07:46] <dr_Willis> you could even boot a cd, and do a normal install to a pendrive.
[07:46] <Akshay> :{
[07:46] <Stryker> you could boot an iso with virtualbox, and install the system onto the pendrive
 That's really a long cut.
[07:47] <Stryker> what does that mean?
[07:47] <dr_Willis> ive done that befor. :)
[07:47] <Stryker> that is not a part of my slang
[07:47] <dr_Willis> vbox -> pendrive. is nifty trick
[07:47] <Stryker> i agree
 Any tutorial ?
[07:47] <W43372> I just installed 10.10 a couple of hours ago and my clock is all kinds of messed up. Screenshot: http://img851.imageshack.us/i/whatthefuckisthisshit.png/
[07:48] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i am sure there is
[07:48] <dr_Willis> pemdrive web site has severla installers thqat work well.
[07:48] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i could help u with teamviewer
[07:48] <Stryker> pendrivelinux sucks
[07:49] <dr_Willis> ive had no issues with the pendrivelinux web site tools
 plz let me know ... teamviewer
[07:50] <W43372> i can has halp plz?
[07:50] <Stryker> ?
[07:50] <dr_Willis> not eveyr one has a web browser to check every site/image.. sumarize the issue.
[07:50] <gump> Hello,I come from a university of China. When I use the line of our school to connect irc servers,it always failed, I don't know why.
[07:50] <Stryker> teamviewer, rohitvvv is an app so i can remotely help u on ur pc
 I need to download it then
[07:51] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i would be happy to help
 Nice of you. but it would nice if you let me know about a tutorial for vbox-> pendrive
I could try
[07:52] <W43372> dr_Willis: I just installed, hwclock had the correct time but it's timezone is HAST. I don't live in hawaii. The clock on the panel is wrong, but when I click on it and check my location it has the correct city and the correct time, but the panel is still wrong.
[07:52] <dr_Willis> i doubt if there is a specific tutorial for vbox->pendrvive., Get vbox seeing the flash drives. and  set it up
[07:53] <Stryker> i used to use vmware
[07:53] <rohitvvv>  <dr_Willis> Okay I would try getting vbox to boot the iso first
[07:53] <Stryker> i am not too great at vbox
[07:53] <dr_Willis> w43372 - it could be a 'clock set to UST/GMT  vs Localtime type issue.'
[07:53] <ruan> vmware is able to share files with drag n drop.. does vbox also support that?
[07:53] <W43372> dr_Willis: how do fix?
[07:53] <lifestream> Hi, I need a simple search and replace tool (NOT a text editor). I can't use sed/awk. I tried SearchMonkey and Regexxer but I can't understand them
[07:53] <dr_Willis> ruan wiuth the guest addations - i think so
[07:54] <iceroot> lifestream: why you cant use sed?
[07:54] <dr_Willis> w43372 check what your hw clock is set to in bios
[07:54] <lifestream> iceroot:  I have tried to learn since atleast 2-3 years ago, but I can't manage to learn it
[07:54] <iceroot> lifestream: you dont know how to use it or other reasons?
[07:54] <Stryker> my bios is set to GMT and in linux is PST
[07:55] <iceroot> lifestream: hm, sed 's/foo/bar/' -i filename   will replace foo with bar
[07:55] <iceroot> lifestream: what else do you need?
[07:55] <lifestream> iceroot: I need it to scan my whole home folder for only plain-text files
[07:56] <tohuw> Where does bind9 log why it failed to start?
[07:56] <iceroot> lifestream: so you want to replace in every textfile a string and only in textfiles?
[07:56] <iceroot> tohuw: /var/log/daemon.log
[07:57] <tohuw> oh, since it's a daemon and all... thanks iceroot -.-
[07:57] <lifestream> iceroot: yes iceroot, I found a script on the web to replace, but it scanned through lots of movies and a 20gb music collection  T_T  Also, I needed to change this string: /home/eris/ to /home/wish  and instead, I got /home/eris//   <- double slash
[07:57] <lifestream> So now none of my configs work because they point to /home/eris//    :P
[07:59] <Blue1> hail eris!  all hail discordia.
[07:59] <Blue1> no wait wrong channel
[07:59] <ruan> lol
[07:59] <mehdi> im haveing bluetooth problem
[08:00] <mehdi> i can recive nor send files
[08:00] <Nrik> I can`t boot into X11 - black screen
[08:00] <W43372> dr_Willis: the bios hw was wrong, I fixed it but my problem is still the same
[08:00] <mehdi> it gives error : make sure u installed the personal file sharing
[08:00] <iceroot> lifestream: sed 's/eris\/\//eris\//' should do the job
[08:01] <W43372> dr_Willis sudo hwclock -r is still accurate but in HAST timezone, panel is wrong, but locations still has correct city and time
[08:01] <iceroot> lifestream: to correct eris// to eris/
[08:01] <dr_Willis> w43722  try setting the clock to set its dat automatically now. it may correct oitself
[08:01] <dr_Willis> or try chaning timezones toi some other zone. then back.
[08:02] <dr_Willis> the gnome clock also may NOT set its self right untill you log out.. its been a bit brain dead in the past i recall.
[08:02] <andruHA1123> wow! whoever recommended me lubuntu was awesome! its really nice and very functional!
[08:02] <Stryker> W43372, try using the time and date settings under system>administration instead of the panel settings
[08:02] <Akshay> ruan:Are you still looking into my problem.
[08:03] <ruan> Akshay: i'll google further
[08:03] <Akshay> thanks mate :)

[08:20] <dr_Willis> i was thinking that pointed to a differnet  version depneding on the system.. but ive never had the system want to remove it
[08:20] <arlander> anyone: why do I have clock-app command, when I run lsof, I don't want any open ports, why is clock-app trying to connect to some IP on port 80 ?
[08:20] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :untill the stable release of natty,we cant do anything,sd card reader is going to work in natty,i already filed the bug
[08:20] <W43372> the SD slot is the only thing on this new machine that doesn't work OOTB
[08:20] <Cale> Maybe I can tell it that I don't want those packages.
[08:20] <ruan> arlander: looks like time synchronisation
[08:20] <rajvi> nvidia collliding with usb slots !!
[08:20] <dr_Willis> arlander - the gnome clock has a weather feature.. it connecting to a port is not really a security issue..
[08:21] <ruan> or weather.
[08:21] <arlander> ruan: Time Synchronization is TURNED OFF, I have set it to MANUAL
[08:21] <W43372> :(
[08:21] <W43372> so there's nothing I can do to get this card reader working until then?
[08:21] <arlander> dr_Willis: I turned the weather thing off, still its communicating to some port 80
[08:21] <kothaguy_ubuntu> guys,any one can help me,i can record my voice with audacity,but not with sound recorder,unable to use skype,unable to record video in cheese booth webcam also,help please
[08:22] <t{^c_^}z> sup. I'm a face.
[08:22] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: wait a second :)
[08:22] <dr_Willis> !skype
[08:22] <loi> boring
[08:22] <loi> does anybody know linus
[08:22] <loi> what is his tel number
[08:22] <loi> ???
[08:22] <FloodBot3> loi: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:22] <rww> !ot | loi
[08:23] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: go to System Preferences and open Multimedia System Selector
[08:23] <llutz_> arlander: use tcpdump/wireshark to find out _what_ the clock really does
[08:23] <newnickk> if you have it
[08:23] <Cale> Oh, one of the packages being kept back is xserver-xorg itself
[08:23] <Cale> huh
[08:24] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, : There is no multimedia system selector in my preferences
[08:24] <Cale> Probably nvidia-current demands a particular version of xorg...
[08:24] <milamber> does anyone know how to turn off dh_auto_test in debuilder?
[08:26] <kothaguy_ubuntu> there is pulse audio preferences,sound, in sound pulse audio volume control,gnome alsa miser,alsamixeer gui only
[08:26] <W43372> so there's nothing I can do to get this card reader working until then?
[08:26] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :yes,
[08:27] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: right click in menu
[08:27] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: then edit menu go to system preferences and enable the shortcut
[08:28] <kothaguy_ubuntu> Newnickk: yes i got multimedia system selector
[08:28] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: open it
[08:28] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: then check default input and try the one ALSA
[08:28] <kothaguy_ubuntu> opened
[08:28] <newnickk> and check device too
[08:28] <newnickk> play with those options

[08:38] <llutz_> ceo: thats why you have to remaster it
[08:38] <ohzie> ceo: This is probably not the best place to get a lot of help for something like that. I suggest that for advanced things like that, you check out http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ to learn a lot about linux in general, and then come back and try again.
[08:39] <ceo> how about my applicaton
[08:39] <dr_Willis> Yet another pontless remaster of Uubntu :) - there was some web site (recontrouctor.org ?) that helped you do that. but its not free any more.
[08:39] <ceo> are that can include to
[08:39] <ohzie> ceo: It's important to learn a lot of the meat before you start sucking the bones, as they say?

[08:40] <ceo> nooooooooooo
[08:41] <dr_Willis> launchers can have url's i recall
[08:41] <doma> yes, don't work
[08:41] <ohzie> ceo: If you're doing something as intensive as remastering a livecd, you really need to read the documentation. =( We can point you in the right direction, but we can't do it for you.
[08:41] <doma> from chromium, maybe from firefox work?
[08:42] <dr_Willis> ive got links to web sites on myh dsktop at home i revcall.. wasent to hard to make  them.  You could always make a launcher that runs 'firefox http://facebook.com'

[08:46] <dr_Willis> Lubuntu is a work in progress.. iuts basuically Openbox+pcmanfm and a few exta tools
[08:46] <llutz_> ohzie: nothing to worry about
[08:46] <ohzie> dr_Willis: Not on your phone anymore? :)
[08:46] <dr_Willis> lubuntu works decently well. but compared to gnome  - it is lacking  some features.
[08:46] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: you didnt solve it?
[08:46] <dr_Willis> on my phone now. :)
[08:46] <ohzie> dr_Willis: I remember when XFCE was very lightweight but with about the functionality of gnome.
[08:46] <ohzie> Then they started bloating it.
[08:46] <ohzie> Now it's amazing
[08:46] <ohzie> but not exactly lightweight
[08:46] <Nrik> Please, help: can`t start gdm after reboot
[08:46] <dr_Willis> Nick completion is not working right. the tab key dont do it.. i hav to hits the phones search button...
[08:46] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, :No yar,skype is unable to record my voice,but i can hear the skype test call voice, :-(
[08:47] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: if the mic works in audacity it works in all other programs too
[08:47] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: if just a configuration that is not right
[08:47] <dr_Willis> Roll your own desktio. :) pick a wm.  pick a fm... there ya go.
[08:47] <newnickk> *it is*
[08:47] <kothaguy_ubuntu> In audacity,it is able to record voice,with disturbance,but in skye,unable to do that
[08:47] <ohzie> dr_Willis: I used to use gnome+xfwm4+konqueror for evrything.
[08:48] <ohzie> that was me until 9.04
[08:48] <dr_Willis> Ive been exploring JoliOS this week. :)  shame on me.  Waiting to get the guts to try 11.04 soon
[08:48] <kothaguy_ubuntu> Even in cheese booth webcam,i cant record videos,What the hell happening to my netbook,
[08:49] <Cale> I remember there was a nice one-line command that one could run to tag the version of a package that one was recompiling from source so that apt wouldn't try to reinstall the distribution's version over and over. What was that?
[08:49] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: check skype preferences! you are doing it wrong
[08:49] <dr_Willis> !pin
[08:49] <Cale> I mean, when building the package in the first place
[08:49] <Cale> I don't want my package's version number to be the same as the one in the repository
[08:50] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, in skype,i checked the sound option,there also it is not able to record voice,but video is there
[08:50] <Cale> (I want to add a tag to the end of it)

[08:53] <bullgard> Nrik: What do you abtain after 'sudo service gdm restart'?
[08:54] <bullgard> s/abtain/obtain/
[08:54] <bullgard> KimK: You can do it via Launchpad.
[08:55] <KimK> bullgard: I've never done that, is there a FAQ?
[08:55] <bullgard> KimK: What do you mean by "there"?
[08:55] <KimK> bullgard: Oh, you mean send the request?
[08:55] <bullgard> KimK: Yes.
[08:56] <KimK> OK, I'll take a look. Thanks.

[09:00] <newnickk> they wont
[09:00] <Piggie> why not?
[09:00] <newnickk> because gnome is for noobs

[09:01] <W43372> Anybody still here from when I was on earlier talking about my problem with the card reader?
[09:01] <Piggie> in Ubuntu
[09:01] <Piggie> ?
[09:01] <bazhang> Piggie, lets take chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:01] <Piggie> I’m on topic
[09:02] <bullgard> Piggie: <bazhang> advised you to discuss that in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[09:02] <Piggie> I’m asking if unity is replacing Gnome so that gnome can be dropped completely
[09:02] <newnickk> Piggie: stop being a big
[09:02] <bazhang> Piggie, no
[09:02] <arturs> hello..
[09:02] <arturs> anyone?
[09:03] <jiltdil> i use this sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop to stop its writting stopping but when i checks sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status it shows it still running  any idea?
[09:03] <Piggie> OK, but Gnome wont ship by default, right?>
[09:03] <Piggie> just an optional thing...
[09:03] <W43372> Ok, anyway; since I logged off I found this thread about the card reader problem in ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1506925

[09:06] <Piggie> I’m a bit confused. You want me to discuss ubuntu on #ubuntu-offtopic?
[09:06] <Tm_T> Piggie: yes, this discussion is not related to ubuntu support in released versions
[09:07] <bullgard> arturs: What does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say?
[09:09] <arlander> llutz_: thanks, at least wireshark helped me understand whts happening, might restart pc and check if communication still exists, might submit as bug when I am sure everythings good wrt disabling services
[09:10] <arlander> llutz_: na no bug, I strted the service and shut again, now its gone, seems like it takes some time, thanks a ton for helping out

[09:11] <ruan> is it possible to install ubuntu on a smartphone?
[09:12] <bullgard> arturs: So you will probably find more fundamental error messages in /var/log/dmesg.0. Analyze them first.
[09:12] <Cale> I can never remember that one when I need it :P
[09:13] <Cale> ruan: I would be very surprised if it is. Ubuntu is geared quite heavily to desktop environments. It's possible to run Linux on some smartphones...
[09:13] <bullgard> ruan: It is possible to install it on some advanced Nokia smart phones.
[09:15] <jiltdil> how to stop sshd?
[09:15] <llutz_> jiltdil: sudo service ssh stop
[09:15] <iceroot> ruan: normally you dont want ubuntu or other distris on a smartphone, its not made for them (controls, resolution and so on) you want android on a smartphone
[09:15] <jiltdil> llutz_:thanx
[09:16] <Cale> I would think it would need to be a pretty heavily modified Ubuntu set-up. The default configuration would be pretty inappropriate I'd think.
[09:16] <iceroot> jiltdil: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[09:16] <jiltdil> iceroot:that not works
[09:16] <iceroot> jiltdil: then maybe sshd
[09:16] <jiltdil> iceroot: no there is no sshd command in that
[09:17] <jiltdil> iceroot: service ssh stop works
[09:17] <Cale> Did llutz's command work?
[09:17] <Cale> okay
[09:17] <Cale> Weird
[09:17] <iceroot> jiltdil: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop is working fine here (ubuntu 10.10)
[09:17] <Cale> Since I thought the service command was just a shortcut to running the things in /etc/init.d
[09:17] <Cale> maybe it isn't
[09:17] <sneha> .com
[09:17] <Cale> yeah, it works for me too
[09:18] <iceroot> Cale: no, service is for upstart init.d is for the old init-script-method
[09:18] <sneha><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:18] <silv3r_m00n> hi there , I am on ubuntu 9.10 , is it possible to replace firefox 3.6 with firefox 4  ?
[09:18] <BezNalogov> Hello
[09:18] <bullgard> In Ubuntu versions < 10.04 there was an entry  System > Administration > Services > (Services Settings) > Database server > 'mysql'. Where has it gone in Lucid and Maverick?
[09:18] <jiltdil> iceroot: but i tried it already it says that it is stopping but when again     i go to check status it says sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status it shows it is active
[09:18] <Cale> iceroot: Then the manpage for it should be updated, since it says "run a System V init script"
[09:18] <arturs> bullgard: I can`t find anything
[09:19] <iceroot> jiltdil: hm, you are right
[09:19] <jiltdil> iceroot: :)
[09:19] <llutz_> crappy mix of upstart/sysv-init
[09:19] <iceroot> jiltdil: maybe its time for me to change to this new service-thing
[09:20] <BezNalogov> I am having a problem with my ubuntu 10.10 machine. Yesterday I updated it, but it seems that something went wrong (allthough I didn't get any errors). The problem is that after the update the network card isn't working anymore. When I do a dmesg | grep eth I don't see anything appear, so it seems the card is unused. What can I do?
[09:20] <bullgard> arturs: So I think that your X server is not properly configured. But I do not know how to best correct that.
[09:20] <iceroot> BezNalogov: what have you update? from 10.04 - 10.10 or only security fixes?
[09:21] <arturs> bullgard: log/Xorg also say, that dir /share/fonts/X11/cyrillic does not exists
[09:21] <iceroot> BezNalogov: a kernel-update?
[09:21] <iceroot> BezNalogov: is "sudo ifconfig -a" showing eth0?
[09:22] <yinruzhi> quit
[09:22] <bullgard> arturs: This may be another error. You probably can fix that by installing a cyrillic font. (But I think that this is secondary in importance to the first rported error message.)
[09:22] <BezNalogov> I did the normal security updates, the kernel was upgraded to 2.6.35-27-generic, but also with the old kernel the network card doesn't work
[09:22] <bullgard> s/rported/reported/
[09:23] <BezNalogov> with sudo ifconfig -a the card doesn't show up either
[09:24] <iceroot> BezNalogov: so the card never worked with 10.10?
[09:24] <arturs> bullgard: by the way, how can I install cyrillic fonts?
[09:24] <BezNalogov> Yes it did
[09:24] <BezNalogov> I use 10.10 for a while already
[09:24] <BezNalogov> Just after running the update-manager yesterday it stopped working
[09:24] <jiltdil> llutz_:  redhat uses   service sshd stop  and ubuntu  service ssh stop quite same :) thanx
[09:24] <llutz_> jiltdil: debian too
[09:24] <llutz_> (ssh)
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: debian is on upstart? (squeeze)
[09:25] <llutz_> iceroot: naaaa never  (hopefully)
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: good. strange new things...
[09:25] <llutz_> iceroot: but "service command works fine with squeeze
[09:25] <bullgard> arturs: '~$ sudo apt-get install xfonts-cyrillic'. Or use Synaptic.
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: but its calling the old init-scripts
[09:26] <jiltdil> llutz_:yes but backtrack like debian os provides it automatically in option  :)
[09:26] <BezNalogov> should I normally see a network card with lspci?
[09:26] <llutz_> iceroot: true, but make switching between systems easier
[09:26] <iceroot> llutz_: never touch a running system
[09:26] <llutz_> lets wait for systemd
[09:26] <iceroot> llutz_: pulseaudio, upstart, wayland....
[09:26] <arturs> bullgard: I can show You log files on web http://winlinmac.ath.cx/~arturs/errors/
[09:27] <llutz_> iceroot: upstart is crap, shouldn't be used in the wild (imho)
[09:27] <jau> Hello ubuntu friends. I have 3 virtual server. I'm located in Finland, i think the servers are located in Germany. recommendations to timezone settings? UTC, Europe/Berlin? what? now one has UTC, two others Europe/Berlin, and i'm confused ;)
[09:27] <bullgard> arturs: http://winlinmac.ath.cx/~arturs/errors/ gets me: "Not found".
[09:28] <iceroot> jau: what about using YOUR timezone
[09:28] <Tm_T> jau: whatever suits you best
[09:28] <Cale> The manpage for 'service' says that it runs sysv init scripts, but taking a look at the source for it in Ubuntu 10.10 reveals that before it does that, it also checks for upstart configurations.
[09:28] <silv3r_m00n> is there any docking application for ubuntu 9.10 , that can be installed from synaptic ?
[09:28] <Cale> (and uses those if available)
[09:28] <inad922> Hello
[09:28] <inad922> Is there anyone here who runs boxee on ubuntu and managed to make it work flawlessly?
[09:28] <iceroot> Cale: but the init-scripts dont check if upstart is used
[09:29] <Diverdude> I hve asked this question several times and nobody answers. It is very frustrating. suddenty my packet manager does not work any longer, it sends me this error message: An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:'E:Dynamic MMap ran out of room. Please increase the size of APT::Cache-Limit. Current value: 2516
[09:29] <Diverdude> 5824. (man 5 apt.conf), E:Error occurred while processing less (NewFileVer1), E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'  How do i solve this?
[09:29] <iceroot> Cale: seen on sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[09:29] <Cale> It looks in /etc/init/${SERVICE}.conf and if that exists it won't run the init script
[09:29] <arturs> bullgard: now its ready :)
[09:29] <iceroot> llutz_: luckily it takes years until debian is using new technologies :)
[09:29] <jau> iceroot: thinking of setting the /etc/timezone to something usable to me... the geolocation of the server confuses me, all servers have ntpdate in use, but i'm thinking of multiuser scenario, so any user could set their own
[09:29] <Cale> Or at least, it won't run it directly.
[09:30] <llutz_> iceroot: let's hope that toy story has enough characters left...
[09:30] <kuribas> Bash completion just stopped working after I installed some packages.
[09:30] <iceroot> llutz_: :)
[09:30] <Cale> It executes a command whose name is the same as the action (except in the case of force-reload, apparently), with the service's name and options passed as args.
[09:30] <jau> iceroot: so setting the server to UTC, and in my profile my own possible?
[09:30] <ruan> Diverdude: increase apt cache-limit? i dunno how though
[09:30] <Cale> So if you know that it's an upstart task apparently you could just use start ssh / stop ssh
[09:31] <ruan> !apt
[09:31] <iceroot> jau: if i am correct you can have user-specific timezones
[09:31] <kuribas> I hate when things that always worked suddenly break because of a change in the system.
[09:31] <Cale> But using the service command is more backwards compatible :)
[09:31] <bullgard> arturs: I fid the same error message "[   939.401] (EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even a frozen display: Bad file descriptor.". You need to confgure your Intel graphics card properly.
[09:31] <Diverdude> ruan, yeah well i kinda figured that also
[09:31] <Diverdude> ruan, but i have no idea how
[09:31] <iceroot> Cale: depending what you are running
[09:31] <bullgard> +i
[09:32] <iceroot> Cale: normally i am on lenny, there i would use init.d  if i write tutorials or scripts i use init.d. bad if other distris are using service
[09:32] <Diverdude> ruan, its really quite bad disappointing that ubuntu has this kind of stupid issues
[09:32] <arturs> bullgard: I tried, but fail
[09:33] <bullgard> arturs: What did you try specifia
[09:33] <bullgard> arturs: What did you try specifically?
[09:33] <killadaninja> does anyone know where "run commands" cache is stored
[09:33] <arturs> bullgard: dpkg-reconfigure -a
[09:33] <killadaninja> not shell
[09:33] <ruan> Diverdude: maybe theres a config for apt somewhere
[09:34] <ruan> /etc/apt?
[09:34] <Diverdude> ruan, where?
[09:34] <arturs> bullgard: but did not change aything.. it just stops working
[09:34] <ruan> hmmm
[09:34] <bullgard> arturs: This is not enough. You will need to reconfigure your graphics system. Google for the precise error message and your computer type. I am sure other had the same problem before and a solution.
[09:35] <milamber> Diverdude: did you try sudo apt-get clean?
[09:35] <Diverdude> ruan, have /etc/apt/apt.conf.d but have many files there
[09:35] <BezNalogov> iceroot, any suggestions what I can do for the network card problem?
[09:35] <Diverdude> milamber, yeah i tried that....it did not do any difference
[09:35] <bullgard> arturs: You can add as a catchword your current Ubuntu distribution.
[09:36] <iceroot> BezNalogov: maybe have a look at dmesg
[09:36] <ruan> need to scout config for the line APT ::Cache-Limit
[09:36] <iceroot> BezNalogov: lspci is not showing the card?
[09:37] <BezNalogov> no lspci isn't showing it, dmesg doesn't show anything either
[09:38] <milamber> Diverdude: what version of ubuntu
[09:38] <milamber> ?
[09:38] <pika_> hello , somebody know the issue with the slow transfert with the USB ?
[09:38] <SoftarPaul> Hello! I've got problems with a command

[09:39] <george_> SoftarPaul: Where are you running it from?
[09:39] <tohuw> So here's an odd problem: I'm trying to ssh into my local DNS server. If I ping it by FQDN (e.g. myserver.site), I get the correct IP address, and the ping times are fine, but there's a very long gap between pings. If I ssh to the FQDN, I get ssh'd into the localhost of whatever machine I'm on! nslookup of the FQDN seems fine... ideas?
[09:39] <crlcan81> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and whenever I have one tab/window open with flash active and open another flash activity in firefox the first goes gray like when plugins are first loading.

[09:39] <SoftarPaul> george_:from the dir where fastboot-linux and the recovery-file is located
[09:40] <bullgard> arturs: Good luck.
[09:40] <george_> SoftarPaul: Try running: sudo fastboot-linux recovery  recovery-clockwork-blade-<IP_ADDRESS>.img
[09:40] <george_> SoftarPaul: Try running: sudo ./fastboot-linux recovery recovery-clockwork-blade-<IP_ADDRESS>.img
[09:40] <BezNalogov> iceroot: no lspci isn't showing it, dmesg doesn't show anything either

[09:42] <george_> SoftarPaul: By the wa Chris's guide to debranding ZTE Blade doesn't work for new phones ^^
[09:43] <arturs> bullgard: Listen, should I install xserver-xorg ?
[09:43] <Diverdude> milamber, its 10.04
[09:44] <bullgard> arturs: Yes.
[09:44] <dagon666> do you guys know any console html2pdf tool available in the repositories ?
[09:45] <arturs> bullgard: but, while installing this package, I miss cyrillic caracters in console
[09:45] <mrcreativity> my touchpad stopped working...can anyone help me please?
[09:45] <mrcreativity> i installed the network indicator applet and now my mousepad isnt working
[09:45] <SoftarPaul> george_: I changed the command and now I get "<waiting for device>"
[09:46] <arturs> bullgard: as example,last log message from "ubottu _sara_: [][][].." - in squires
[09:46] <bullgard> arturs: Install the DEB program package »console-cyrillic«.
[09:47] <crlcan81> Does anyone have experience with 10.10 64 and flash?
[09:47] <arturs> bullgard: already installed, maybe after configuration or reboot - its corrects
[09:47] <bullgard> arturs: I do not understand your message "as example,last log message from "ubottu _sara_: [][][].." - in squires". Please say it in other words.

[09:47] <Tewo> Hello, is it possible to setup Ubuntu on a flash drive (or install lm_sensors or something like that) to monitor temps of a machine just after install ?
[09:47] <crlcan81> I've already asked the question, and not gotten an answer.
[09:47] <Tewo> As in , install of the machines parts
[09:48] <crlcan81> why I asked the experience question.
[09:48] <milamber> Diverdude: and then sudo apt-get update
[09:48] <crlcan81> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and whenever I have one tab/window open with flash active and open another flash activity in firefox the first goes gray like when plugins are first loading. Using Adobe's flash plugin.
[09:48] <bullgard> Tewo: What are "temps"?
[09:48] <etfb> About the fglrx video driver (ATI/AMD proprietary) -- is the one in the Maverick repositories really the latest one?  Can I find a more recent one if I compile the source from somewhere?  One that can handle Flash without dying would be nice...
[09:48] <arturs> bullgard: Ok, all good now
[09:48] <Tewo> bullgard: "Temps of the machine"
[09:49] <Tewo> bullgard: "CPU temp, hard drive, etc"
[09:49] <bullgard> Tewo: Do you speak about "temperature"?
[09:49] <arturs> Yhooooo
[09:49] <arturs> :)
[09:49] <Tewo> bullgard: Yes I speak of "temperature" White man.. how how
[09:49]  * Tewo burps
[09:50] <arturs> bullgard: Thanks again.
[09:50] <crlcan81> I'm honestly already paranoid enough about this thing with the fans without knowing my exact cpu/hard drive/gpu temp
[09:50] <bullgard> arturs: You are welcome.
[09:51] <crlcan81> need to upgrade the case to one that supports anything larger then 80mm fans.
[09:51] <crlcan81> Not quite silent enough though she's pretty quiet already.
[09:51] <tohuw> So here's an odd problem: I'm trying to ssh into my local DNS server. If I ping it by FQDN (e.g. myserver.site), I get the correct IP address, and the ping times are fine, but there's a very long gap between pings. If I ssh to the FQDN, I get ssh'd into the localhost of whatever machine I'm on! nslookup of the FQDN seems fine... ideas?
[09:51] <San> ubuntu sucks!
[09:51] <San> i like backtrack
[09:51] <bullgard> Tewo: "is it possible to setup Ubuntu on a flash drive (or install lm_sensors or something like that) to monitor temps of a machine just after install ?" <-- Yes
[09:52] <Tewo> anyway yes.  "temperature" .  As in to figure out if the machien is running hot.
[09:52] <Tewo> bullgard: Just use the live CD and/or flash drive ?
[09:52] <milamber> Tewo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=102636
[09:52] <Tewo> milamber: Does Ubuntu have something like Prime95 to stress the CPU ?
[09:53] <bullgard> Tewo: Either one is all right.
[09:53] <milamber> !info stress | Tewo
[09:53] <Tewo> bullgard: it seems after you install lm-senors it requires a reboot.  I guess that wouldn't be an option
[09:54] <Tewo> sensors
[09:54] <ruan> you could also write a bash script to stress the CPU, infinite loop echo
[09:55] <Tewo> ruan: I assume I could check it in BIOS to begin with first off anyway?
[09:55] <ruan> Tewo: yes you can check temperature of cpu in bios
[09:55] <bullgard> Tewo: If rebboting is not option for you you better have qualified that before.
[09:56] <bullgard> s/not/not an/
[09:56] <Tewo> bullgard: A live flash drive doesn't allow changes to the OS?
[09:56] <Tewo> bullgard: I guess?
[09:57] <Tewo> bullgard: such as installing and keeping a new package?
[09:57] <bullgard> Tewo: A live flash drive does allow to make changes in the OS.
[09:57] <Tewo> bullgard: where as the CD wouldn't?
[09:58] <bullgard> Tewo: I do not understand your question: "where as the CD wouldn't?"
[09:58] <Tewo> bullgard: So in general I could run Ubuntu , and keep it updated , off of a flash drive?
[09:58] <Tewo> bullgard: Doesn't allow changes such as updates, new packages, etc ?
[09:58] <bullgard> Tewo: Yes.
[09:59] <Tewo> bullgard: Yes to keeping it updated and running off of flash drive?
[09:59] <linux_> whois todd_
[09:59] <bullgard> Tewo: No.
[09:59] <Tewo> OK.
[10:00] <Tewo> bullgard: So I can only make the ISO in to a setup on the flash drive?
[10:01] <iceroot> Tewo: you can have a normal ubuntu-installation on a flashdrive like on a normal harddisk
[10:01] <bullgard> Tewo: Im you have a normal Ubuntu computer you can produce a modified flash drive which includes the additional packages which you want.
[10:01] <iceroot> !usb | Tewo
[10:01] <bullgard> s/IM/If/
[10:03] <hayz> how much storage does ubuntu 10.10 OS takes?
[10:03] <Diverdude> milamber, do i need to restart before it works?
[10:03] <Tewo> iceroot: I'm assuming it would over right the boot data on the main hard drive unlike the flash setup installer ?
[10:03] <bullgard> hayz: This depends yon your setup.
[10:03] <milamber> Diverdude: should just have to do sudo apt-get update
[10:03] <bullgard> s/yon/on/
[10:04] <Tewo> iceroot: or would it install Grub2 over windows' ?
[10:04] <Diverdude> milamber, brb
[10:08] <GOMI> am curious about one thing , my ubuntu crashed twice on both times i had a video player on pauze while i was doing something else
[10:08] <GOMI> is that a known problem ?
[10:08] <red2kic> GOMI: Check htop -- Look for something that cause high spikes in CPU or MEM.
[10:09] <Diverdude> milamber, its stilol not working :(
[10:09] <arand> hayz: 5GB absolute minimum, 10GB if you plan on getting a fair amount of applications, 20GB if you want to be sure 20GB+ If you intend to store data (music, video, isos, virtual machines) on the partition as well.
[10:09] <GOMI> oke
[10:09] <Diverdude> milamber, i set it to 10MB, did update and restarted
[10:09] <bullgard> GOMI: This sometimes happens if you are using a proprietary flash driver.
[10:09] <Diverdude> but still gives the same error
[10:10] <GOMI> aha ok
[10:11] <milamber> Diverdude: did you do apt-cache clean?
[10:11] <hayz> arand: ok im having a 10GB for my OS as "/" mount point and the rest 30GB for my "/home" as my Datadisk for my 40GB Hard Disk...
[10:11] <Diverdude> milamber, ahh now i tried setting it to 50Mb and it seems to work better
[10:12] <red2kic> hayz: If you only have 40GB HDD. It might be easier to get another HDD solely for your $HOME.
[10:13] <bullgard> In Ubuntu versions < 10.04 there was an entry  System > Administration > Services > (Services Settings) > Database server > 'mysql'. Where has it gone in Lucid and Maverick?
[10:13] <arand> hayz: Unless you really need a separate home partition, it could be useful to allocate it all to / unless you know specifically how much will be where in the end.
[10:14] <Diverdude> milamber, is it possible somehow to see how much cache size is actually needed ? Instead of just guessing
[10:15] <hayz> red2kic: i think that would be fine...coz most of the things we're doing where office like encoding reports and printing no games and other extra installation...
[10:15] <arand> hayz: Although I guess that you may be able to do resizing at a later time provided the /home and / partions are adjacent. ...or you could use lvm...
[10:16] <red2kic> hayz: Ah. Gotcha. That probably will be fine.
[10:16] <milamber> Diverdude: i think it depends on how much you are doing.
[10:17] <Diverdude> milamber, you mean how many packages are installed?
[10:17] <hayz> is there a way for to format another partition as FAT32 so that if reverting back to something like winxp OS that partition still be accessible and vice versa?...i'd remember last i cant do this...all i did was all were in ext4
[10:18] <red2kic> hayz: Windows Disc OS would install fat32/ntfs.
[10:18] <milamber> Diverdude: apt cache is similar to get, but a separate command: http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/updating-redhat/apt-howto/how-to-use-apt-cache.html
[10:18] <red2kic> hayz: gparted can format fat32
[10:20] <arand> hayz: I would use ntfs unless it's on a usb stick.
[10:20] <Diverdude> milamber, apt-cache stats shows me: Total space accounted for: 17.4M
[10:20] <Diverdude> milamber, probably thats it
[10:20] <milamber> Diverdude: probably. that's why 50 was enough
[10:20] <hayz> arand: ubuntu can create partition NTFS?
[10:21] <arand> hayz: Installing ubuntu on ntfs might not be a very good idea though.
[10:21] <Odaym> there are tools for that
[10:21] <Odaym> but ubuntu on NTFS is NO
[10:21] <species> would that even work?
[10:21] <hayz> thats what im thinking
[10:21] <species> NTFS does support arbitrary properties on its nodes, so for example it can be used for unix type file permissions
[10:22] <GOMI> i dont think you get that option during install ?
[10:22] <Nevyn1> Süpecies, asking a group of certified nerds if it will work is a challenge.
[10:22] <iceroot> species: there is imo only a FUSE ntfs-driver, to its not working
[10:22] <hayz> is ext4 partition accessible or readble in windows XP OS?
[10:22] <iceroot> hayz: not by default but with ext4 drivers, yes
[10:22] <Odaym> but i think that NTFS is instructed to use page file instead of our swap partition
[10:22] <Odaym> maybe

[10:24] <crazyzhang> how to find the progress which I have  set  in
[10:25] <sillyman50> is there a way to get the older version of gdm on ubuntu 10 10
[10:25] <Diverdude> milamber, exactly
[10:25] <Diverdude> milamber, thx a lot
[10:26] <milamber> Diverdude: no problem :)  once you get your system configured the way you need it, gnu/linux really is rock solid. come back with any more issues
[10:26] <sillyman50> is there a way to get the older version of gdm on ubuntu 10 10
[10:27] <Diverdude> milamber, yeah...its just that there a lot of things to configure
[10:27] <kubz_> I'm impressed about new ubuntu :)
[10:27] <red2kic> sillyman50: Why?
[10:27] <Diverdude> kubz_, 10.10?
[10:27] <kubz_> Diverdude, yep
[10:27] <kubz_> last ubuntu which I used was 8.10
[10:28] <kubz_> 10.10 is awesome :p
[10:28] <kubz_> brb, reboot
[10:28] <Diverdude> kubz_, i see...whyis 1010 better
[10:28] <sillyman50> Because I want the themes
[10:28] <cosmo> is the winehq channel the one I need for getting help on getting steam games working in ubuntu?

[10:29] <SharkBoy96___> I have no network icon I'm runing 10.04 LTS
[10:30] <dr_Willis> try runnin nm-applet SharkBoy96___
[10:30] <red2kic> sillyman50: You wanted to downgrade something just for themes and lols? Whilst I'nt not against customizations, but consider if it is worth your time (30+m~) for gdm theme that you only see for five seconds mininum.
[10:31] <john123> hi
[10:31] <dr_Willis> you can instagll the older GDM. but i dont thin its worht the effort just for themes
[10:31] <yuzodo> hi
[10:32] <dr_Willis> there are a few features in the old gdm that some people may need. but Not many
[10:33] <SnowmanX11> Can somebody point me to a good guide, how to resize root partition? (I guess that LiveCD and Grub2 update is needed, isn't it?)
[10:33] <dr_Willis> live cd with gparted. and a lot of patience. :)
[10:33] <dr_Willis> make  backups first also.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> dr_Willis: OK, but how?
[10:34] <dr_Willis> it may be easier to just move some system dirs to a new filesystem  to reoorgeniaz  the space
[10:34] <dr_Willis> boot gparted cd. use it to resize.. reboot.. hope it works.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> and the grub?
[10:34] <dr_Willis> if needed - fix it. via live cd.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> size will change, which may confuse the grub setup
[10:34] <dr_Willis> !fixgrub
[10:35] <AcePreshaw> dr_Willis: I can't see the icon it's runing I can see it
[10:35] <dr_Willis> it Might confuse it.. if the uuids change.
[10:35] <dr_Willis> !resetpanel | AcePreshaw
[10:35] <SnowmanX11> OK
[10:35] <AcePreshaw> Ok
[10:35] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal??
[10:36] <SnowmanX11> One more question. How can I grab the complete video DVD (cartoon for the kids) by compression to fit 4,5GB disc?
[10:37] <SnowmanX11> Like in DVD SHrink in MS
[10:37] <cosmo> I'm still pissed that when I was installing ubuntu it asked if I wanted to install it along side another operating system so I said yes and it proceeded to erase my win7 install
[10:38] <john123> i'm trying to disable some daemons (smbd, cupsd....). i have tried bum and sysv-rc-conf. the only service that disabled was bluetooth. what should i do?
[10:38] <dr_Willis> Or you messed up cosmo.. but in any case.. ine should always have backups.
[10:38] <dr_Willis> Ive had windowsw destroy Linux mch much much more then the reverse has ever happened.
[10:39] <natoka> john123: man update-rc.d
[10:39] <arand> cosmo: This should be reported as a bug, so the win7 partition is gone and the current ubuntu partition covers the whole disk?
[10:39] <dr_Willis> Ubuntu dosent really use sysv system any more john123  those tools may not work
[10:39] <dr_Willis> !upstart
[10:39] <cosmo> arand yep
[10:39] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal??
[10:39] <natoka> john123: or man invode-rc.d if you want to disable deamons temporarily
[10:40] <john123> ok thank you so much
[10:40] <_cronus_> SnowmanX11, you could use dvdshrink under wine, dvd95 or k9copy... among other tools
[10:40] <dr_Willis> john123 that info is not totally correct either.. usew the 'service' command as needed
[10:40] <dr_Willis> I use k9copy to backup  video dvds :)
[10:41] <cosmo> it's a kick in the pants to try going completly over to linux the only bad part is I dont have the preferences now for most of my stuff, thank god I put most of my games and media on another hard drive
[10:41] <arand> cosmo: If so report a bug on launchpad, against ubiquity (initially) and insclude the logs which should be present in /var/log/installer/ and/or /var/log/ubiquity
[10:41] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal???
[10:42] <dr_Willis> !debug
[10:42] <dr_Willis> I imagine anything calls 1000's of kernel functions...
[10:42] <kubz> awesome :3
[10:42] <juggernauts> thanks...i hope link helps...
[10:44] <john123> ok, i knew these tools, but i'd like an easier tool for my younger brother, so the command line is the only way for now, right?
[10:44] <dr_Willis> given how vague what you are asking is... :) i would be suprised..  heh.. debuging can get. complex.
[10:45] <dr_Willis> john123 what are yo trying to do exactly?
[10:45] <john123> just disable startup services
[10:46] <dr_Willis> what service?
[10:46] <dr_Willis> some are as simimple as editing /etc/init/whateer.conf to be whatever.DONTRUN
[10:46] <john123> smbd, cupsd
[10:46] <dr_Willis> look in /etc/init/
[10:47] <dr_Willis> i think both are ran from there. but may not be using those exacxt names
[10:47] <Repnina> Hi everyone
[10:47] <_cronus_> john123, check update-rc.d also
[10:48] <Repnina> I have a problem with ubuntu, can i get here support?
[10:48] <_cronus_> john123, *check out
[10:48] <kubz> Repnina: seems so :p
[10:48] <dr_Willis> the  rc.d stuff is for the older sysv system. thats slowly getting phased out.
[10:48] <john123> ok
[10:48] <dr_Willis> most of the rc.d scripts are in fact upstart scripts these days
[10:49] <roger_> Hey guys, does anyone know why a flash drive would unmount itself?
[10:49] <dr_Willis> read/write erors.. flakey usb port.. currupted filesystem
[10:49] <Repnina> I have intel wifi invilink 5150 and ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition on acer aspire one. And i can't make wifi work (
[10:49] <dr_Willis> roger_ check dmesg output when it happens
[10:50] <rick__> how can I find out whether I'm running 32 or 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[10:50] <roger_> dr_Willis: Both my usb ports do this. Ok, let me check that output
[10:50] <dr_Willis> sounds like possible bad usb disk, or filesystem
[10:50] <linux_user> Hi, Sorry if my question was being asked before,.. I've installed linux on my usb,. and I managed to make about 3GB storage for saving my files.. now I've downloaded a driver installer.. and every time I'm trying to install it it says "the free space is 0"
[10:51] <dr_Willis> and how big is the usb disk?
[10:51] <dr_Willis> 3gb isa not a lot of space...
[10:51] <Diverdude> what is sslug?
[10:51] <roger_> dr_Willis: It's happening on my usb stick as well. I believe it's the filesystem. it's 16gb
[10:51] <roger_> on my *new usb stick
[10:51] <dr_Willis> fsck the fileysstem, or reformat it. perhaps.
[10:52] <linux_user> 8GB
[10:52] <linux_user> and I have about 3.5GB free
[10:52] <hayz> windows virus will not work on linux?

[10:53] <Repnina> How to make work Intel 5150 on Ubuntu 10.10???
[10:53] <SnowmanX11> hayz: shortly: no way
[10:53] <lilytown> hello?
[10:53] <hayz> sounds good!
[10:53] <vietred> @rick__: try uname -m
[10:53] <linux_user> any idea..?
[10:54] <Diverdude> what is sslug?
[10:54] <rick__> How do I install a 64bit version of Wine? I have an old .wine dir I can't access otherwise
[10:55] <linux_user> sslug ?
[10:55] <mena> hi
[10:55] <mena> i have a problem with shutdown
[10:55] <SnowmanX11> meaning?
[10:56] <vietred> @rick: why don't you use google first?
[10:56] <mena> ???
[10:56] <roger_> If you guys have a minute to take a look, here's the output of dmesg for my usb stick unmount problem
[10:56] <roger_> https://pastebin.com/vX19jNsv
[10:56] <mena> i can't specific my error exactly
[10:56] <SnowmanX11> mena: what is the problem with shutdown?
[10:56] <dr_Willis> ive never noivued any wine stuff being 32 or 64bit dependant.
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> shymptom or something tangible
[10:57] <mena> my problem is when i shutdown ubuntu .....it hanging
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> for how long?
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> or never stops?
[10:58] <SnowmanX11> mena: look for sys logs
[10:58] <roger_> mena: I had the same problem, but the new updates fixed it. Have you updated lately?
[10:58] <SnowmanX11> there you may find the reason
[11:00] <hayz> my USB got infected by windows virus being inserted on other windows machine and started creating exe files with a folder icon...I could not delete them on windows machine...it always keep coming back...what I did is..run to Ubuntu OS machine and started deleting those I suspected exe files...thinking that It wont infect my Ubuntu OS machine...
[11:02] <linux_user> hayz, there is no way possible
[11:02] <dr_Willis> hayz it shouldent
[11:02] <dr_Willis> i would suggest just reformating the usb.
[11:02] <dr_Willis> and use some live antivirus cd on the windows box.
[11:03] <hayz> yeah before reformatting I should back up first my files...
[11:03] <hayz> that should be done on Ubuntu
[11:03] <linux_user> does anyone know how can I install a file from the source on an usb-os
[11:04] <linux_user> because its keep saying the the free space is zero
[11:04] <mena_> hi
[11:04] <linux_user> while it is not
[11:04] <roger_> hayz, if you're worried about a virus(which i doubt you have), you could always install and run clamtk. it's anti-virus for linux
[11:04] <dr_Willis> You can install a Live-cd typs setup to ausb flash drive. or ou can do a normal full install.
[11:05] <dr_Willis> linux_user  you have a save file that could be full. or the actual flash drive may be getting full.
[11:05] <Emanon> Hey, all the beta channel is #ubuntu-natty isn't it?
[11:05] <dr_Willis> Live-cd to flash setups can get full real fast. and are not ideal for constant updateing.
[11:05] <oCean> Emanon: #ubuntu+1
[11:05] <Emanon> ahh thanks oCean
[11:07] <mena_> h have a problem with shut down any one can help me?
[11:08] <linux_user> its not\
[11:08] <linux_user> it has 3.2GB
[11:08] <linux_user> anyway
[11:08] <linux_user> thanks
[11:09] <dr_Willis> if you did a install  to a 8gb flash drive. and made a 4gb 'persistant save file' that means you Are only using perhaps 5gb od the thole thing.
[11:09] <dr_Willis> clean out the apt cache perhaps. that can free up space.
[11:09] <cardiel> Which is the best sopcast software for ubuntu?
[11:14] <gakhan> why my context menus shows multicolor garbage for a moment?

[12:26] <chilli0> Hi, after updating on the 24th my Mounted shares through samba don't work. They lag out and die... how can I undo updates? I think it updated more than just one package and I can't force lock the version back.

[12:51] <LensWiper> Given I just spent four months of my life on maternity leave, I was able to immerse myself in the world of being a stay-at-home mommy. I walked my kids to school, conversed with other moms at pick-up, made yummy (I think?!), home-cooked meals and focused on my kiddos 24/7.

[12:57] <gakhan> bazhang, only if you have 70% of disk free
 why ?
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> there are ext2/3/4 defrag tools.. but they are rareluy if ever needed
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> Unlike windows - that needs defraged.. constantly it seems..

[12:58] <Dr_Willis> Ive had windows drives take a week to defrag./ :)
[12:58] <yuzodo> faildows lol
[12:59] <dhanesh> bazhang>so how can i check for bad sectors in ubuntu?
[12:59] <dhanijeremy> i need help on my D-Link USB wireless
[12:59] <gakhan> actually there's no unfragmented files in my ~, so stop that lies about magic not fragmenting ext file system
[12:59] <ruan> i need GCC 4.2.0 for a program. i tried GCC 4.5.0 but it asks for 4.2. ./lib/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
[12:59] <AcePreshaw> dhanijeremy, yea
[13:00] <ruan> i tried installing it from apt-get, but it says that it has no installation candidate
[13:00] <dhanesh> bazhang>so how can i check for bad sectors in ubuntu?
[13:00] <dhanijeremy> AcePreshaw, how do i activate it?
[13:00] <bazhang> dhanesh, badblocks ?
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  you may want to find a diffent source/ppa for that program if it comes precompiled. or compile it youreslr.
[13:00] <gakhan> dhanesh, fsck -c
[13:01] <ruan> Dr_Willis: it has no source or ppa :/
[13:01] <dhanesh> gakhan> fsck how ?
[13:01] <ruan> its a linux version of a game, and the windows one doesn't run
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  you may be out of luck. expecially if its an OLD game.
[13:01] <gakhan> fsck -c unmounted_device
[13:02] <ruan> last modified: jun 26 2007
[13:02] <dhanesh> how to run fsck
[13:02] <ruan> linux ver is from 2005
[13:03] <drt49222_> dhanesh: in terminal : man fsck
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  and what game is this?
[13:03] <ruan> Dr_Willis: darwinia
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  Hmm..  I  recall running that in wine once. ages ago.. :)
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> i recall having the native version als running.. but that was ages ago also.\
[13:04] <ruan> Dr_Willis: on wine it gives an error related to a sound lib
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> check the wine app database perhaps.

[13:06] <gakhan> Cherish, ssl has nothing to do with passwords
[13:06] <Cherish> I said the key's password
[13:07] <Cherish> openssl genrsa -des3 ...
[13:07] <Cherish> It needs password
[13:08] <Cherish> The error log is "Init: Private key not found",but my path is right
[13:08] <Cherish> When I used the key doesn't support password , have no error log.

[13:24] <Ephexeve> Ok
[13:25] <Ephexeve> I done that, but then I get * #python-unregistered :Cannot send to channel

[13:32] <gakhan> bullgard, the program which runs when user sync logs in; also man sync
[13:32] <mongy> raven, check the UUID of your swap matches that in /etc/fstab
[13:33] <bullgard> gakhan: Who logs in? A 'user sync'? Who is that?
[13:33] <gakhan> bullgard, a user called 'sync'
[13:33] <raven> mongy, how to get the uuid?

[13:37] <gakhan> !mint
[13:37] <Duck32> Thanks v much
[13:37] <S0LIDUS> Hi all, can anyone help me with update issues?
[13:37] <Duck32> !mintsupport | Duck32
[13:40] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  if you describe the issues someone may have a solution
[13:40] <FrameFever> how can I build qt from source
[13:40] <FrameFever> ?
[13:40] <ikonia> FrameFever: why do you want to ?
[13:41] <Odaym> it is...correct to run a mail server on a virtual machine running Ubuntu and Zimbra on it?
[13:42] <Odaym> it is just as functional as with a physical machine?
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: if you want
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: a virtual machine will work
[13:42] <Odaym> and what does it take to make a machine a mail server?
[13:42] <hamitron>  id 2tits4me
[13:42] <Odaym> something to change in /etc/hosts and then putting a mail application on it?
[13:42] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Yep thanks for that. Well when i try and install software from the synaptic package manager. It says it failed to download please check my network connection. I am connected to the internet though?
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: depends on a lot, size, thorughput, etc
[13:42] <rosetree> Hi, I have a problem with the Internet. I can connect with W-Lan and I can chat with Skype. But I can't use Opera, Firefox or something else ! I'm now online with a live CD. Has anyone an idea?
[13:43] <ikonia> rosetree: the browsers are in offline mode ?
[13:43] <amateur> ...
[13:43] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  ooo   have you tried from a terminal?
[13:43] <amateur> no tired
[13:43] <FrameFever> \msg ikopnia because I like to
[13:43] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  in terminal    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:43] <ikonia> FrameFever: ok, then read the documentation about how to do it
[13:44] <FrameFever> there is no
[13:44] <rosetree> well, I hope not ... that would be really stupid!
[13:44] <ikonia> FrameFever: there is, there are README and INSTALL files within the source code
[13:44] <S0LIDUS> coz_, yep!
[13:44] <Odaym> can you advise a better mail server than Zimbra, ikonia
[13:44] <Odaym> ?
[13:44] <ikonia> Odaym: it's personal choice, exim/postfix/sendmail/qmail up to you
[13:44] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  did you install or delete anything just before you noticed this happend?
[13:44] <rosetree> but I'll try! Thanks ikonia
[13:45] <mrcreativity> anyone install the indicator-network applet?
[13:45] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Nope!
[13:45] <Pumpkin-> it is personal preference, zimbra has everything needed to "do mail" though. You can also go for piecemeal solutions where you need to pick seperate bits of software to do different bits of the mail job
[13:45] <FrameFever> how can i start a script ?
[13:46] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  then I may not be the person to  help with this one...so stick around and then repeat the issue
[13:46] <ikonia> FrameFever: just type the script name
[13:46] <Pumpkin-> like an SMTP server, an IMAP server, something to do webmail, something to do spamfiltering etc ..
[13:46] <FrameFever> ./configure
[13:46] <FrameFever> "not allowd"
[13:46] <ilya> it
[13:46] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Thank you for the suggestions!
[13:46] <medo> I'm using TwinView mode but I want to rotate one of the two monitors... how can I do this ?
[13:46] <ikonia> FrameFever: change the permissions
[13:46] <coz_> medo,  did you open nvidia-settings
[13:47] <FrameFever> how does I change the permisson?
[13:47] <Pumpkin-> FrameFever: is it executable ? (does ls -la ./configure have any x's in the permissions) ?
[13:47] <ikonia> FrameFever: if you don't know how to change permissions, you should not be blindly trying to compile software for no reason
[13:47] <ikonia> FrameFever: I'll ask again, what is the reason you want to build QT from source ? what is wrong with the version ubuntu has built for you
[13:47] <S0LIDUS> When I try and install software from the synaptic package manager. It says it failed to download please check my network connection. I am connected to the internet though?
[13:48] <ikonia> S0LIDUS: probably a dead mirror, in the termianl do "sudo apt-get update" does it error ?
[13:48] <FrameFever> because I want to know, how can I do it by my own
[13:48] <medo> coz_:  I managed only to rotate the two monitors, I want to rotate only one of them !
[13:48] <S0LIDUS> ikonia, In the terminal it says connection timeout.
[13:48] <ikonia> FrameFever: you are not at that level to be able to do it if you are not in a position to know how to change permissions
[13:48] <ikonia> FrameFever: I'd suggest checking https://help.ubuntu.com about learning the basics of using linux/ubuntu
[13:49] <ikonia> S0LIDUS: what software mirror is it using ?
[13:49] <FrameFever> no x in the permisson
[13:49] <zelev> S0LIDUS: the same thing happened to me and i switched my ubuntu software mirror from Spain to the Main server
[13:50] <S0LIDUS> zelev, Thanks !
[13:50] <zelev> S0LIDUS: applications, ubuntu software center, edit software sources, Ubuntu software tab and then: Download from
[13:50] <zelev> S0LIDUS: you´re welcome
[13:50] <ruan> yep, i had to switch my mirror today as well
[13:50] <ruan> downloads stalled and timed out
[13:51] <S0LIDUS> zelev, You fixed it, thanks.
[13:52] <S0LIDUS> ikonia, Thank you for your help!
[13:52] <zelev> S0LIDUS: I´m glad I could help
[13:53] <FrameFever> I dont found the tutorial for "how does I start a script"?
[13:54] <ttist25> good morning - would this be a good place to get help with a software RAID5 setup?
[13:57] <ttist25> can anyone help with a RAID5 setup?

[13:58] <FrameFever> sudo bash script does start a script...
[14:00] <cellardoor_> Anybody here any good with Pascal or Lazarus? I know this is totally the wrong place to ask, but nobody is active in the
[14:00] <cellardoor_> appropriate channels.
[14:04] <oneliner> hello there, where is the path evironment variable stored?
[14:04] <Odaym> pwd you mean?
[14:04] <Odaym> /bin/pwd
[14:04] <oneliner> nope
[14:04] <oneliner> path
[14:04] <Odaym> ah path
[14:05] <_cronus_> oneliner, in the $PATH variable
[14:05] <jrib> oneliner: why do you ask?
[14:05] <oneliner> _cronus_: so far so good, how could i add to it a directory?
[14:06] <_cronus_> export PATH=$PATH:<directory>
[14:06] <miniminiyo> ubuntu-es
[14:06] <oneliner> jrib, am getting up to speed with assorted configuration methods
[14:06] <precubcr> pls
[14:06] <precubcr> #!/bin/bash
[14:06] <precubcr> if true [ $pwd -e "/home/cristian" ]
[14:06] <precubcr> then
[14:06] <precubcr> 	cd "home/cristian/Desktop"
[14:06] <precubcr> 	echo "Ya esta cambiado..."
[14:06] <precubcr> else
[14:06] <FloodBot2> precubcr: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:07] <oneliner> _cronus_: would that overwritte other entries? would that survive a reboot?
[14:08] <jrib> oneliner: well the answer to your question depends on what exactly you want to do.  I can imagine at least 3 different things: (1) how to temporarily add a directory to my path (2) how to permanently add a directory to my path and (3) how to permanently add a directory to every user's path
[14:08] <Hammer> a
[14:08] <_cronus_> oneliner, it won't overwrite entries since what it does is it appends the directory to the path ($PATH is the original path value), but it won't survive reboot or be shared by shell sessions
[14:09] <oneliner> jrib, i know i could probably google each out, but if you could be so kind to exemplify, in a oneliner :)
[14:09] <micha_> hi, is there any program that allows me to write the output of a shell script directly to my gnome desktop ?
[14:09] <brontosaurusrex> how would i check if there is another gnome session running? (connecting via nx)
[14:09] <phix> hey
[14:10] <rigved> micha_: if the command is run from the terminal, you can pipe it to a file on your desktop. is this what you were looking for?
[14:10] <phix> why does ubuntu use an older kernel than debian?
[14:10] <jrib> oneliner: well what _cronus_ said earlier does (1).  To do (2) you essentially do (1) in ~/.profile.  If you view ~/.profile you'll see an example of this with ~/bin (the code there actually checks if ~/bin exists, and if it does, adds it to the PATH.  To do (3), you would use /etc/environment
[14:10] <phix> and why doeant it have proper xen support like debian?
[14:11] <rigved> phix: 10.04 uses 2.6.32-29        squeeze uses 2.6.32-5
[14:11] <oneliner> jrib: excelent, thank you very much
[14:11] <micha_> rigved: no not exactly, i am looking for a programm which displays text on the desktop for a defined time
[14:11] <rigved> phix: so debian uses an older kernel
