[00:46] <carrfane> hello, my name is hector, im new here
[00:47] <carrfane> anybody there?
[00:51] <caravan> hello
[00:52] <caravan> i would like to ask something
[00:52] <caravan> any1?
[00:53] <phillw> caravan: do not ask to ask... please just ask. If one of us are about, we will answer. If not.. please use the topic :)
[01:08] <anthropologist> Hey folks. I've got a nVidia GeForce 7300 that I am trying to use to set up a dual desktop under Lubuntu 11.04. If I install the 3rd party nVidia drivers, Lubuntu freezes on startup. Google has indicated to me that the current nVidia drivers don't work with the GeForce 7300, and that those cards are on a "blackout list". Is there a work-around, or should I try to dig up another video card?
[02:37] <wxl> why can't i find kernel module ide-scsi on this god-forsaken alternate cd? sigh. every which way i'm screwed!
[03:03] <phillw> wxl: that will be because it is not installed? scsi?...... oh dear me!
[03:03] <wxl> supposedly modprobe ide-scsi should solve the problem
[03:04] <wxl> unfortunately it can't find the module
[03:04] <wxl> siiiiiiiigh
[03:04] <wxl> is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/lubuntu-meta the correct location for bug reporting?
[03:05] <jmarsden> wxl: What makes you believe you need the ide-scsi module?  From memory, that module has not existed in Linux kernels for a few years now... or else I'm confusing it with something else...
[03:08] <jmarsden> wxl: A quick Google suggests that using ide-scsi was deprecated as far back as 2004.  It is not there any more... why do you think you need it?
[03:26] <wxl> jmarsden: i can't find anything current that's for sure
[03:27] <wxl> jmarsden: but the fact is it can't detect the cd and it doesn't seem to be in the device tree
[03:28] <jmarsden> 2.6 and 3.0 kernels do not use ide-scsi to detect optical drives.  Any info you find suggesting ide-scsi is from the old days of 2.4 kernels, as far as I know.
[03:28] <wxl> fine with me, so what do you suggest? :D
[03:28] <jmarsden> Try a different optical drive, if you have another?
[03:29] <wxl> nope
[03:29] <jmarsden> Or a different data cable?
[03:29] <wxl> the drive works fine
[03:29] <wxl> obviously
[03:29] <wxl> it booted
[03:31] <wxl> looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/installation-guide/powerpc/boot-troubleshooting.html i see no real relevant info in dmesg or syslog
[03:31] <wxl> in syslog there is cdrom-detect: Unmounting CD just to be sure
[03:32] <wxl> nothing else of relevance
[03:32] <wxl> dev doesn't have anything-- hdc, sr0, sd*, cdrom, nothing
[03:32] <wxl> so manually mounting ain't going to help
[03:32] <wxl> for that matter there's no /proc/ide
[03:33] <wxl> so checking dma won't help
[03:33] <jmarsden> wxl: OK, so the drive you booted from is not being seen; sorry if that should have been obvious, I did not read all the earlier part of the conversation when I got to my PC.
[03:33] <jmarsden> Maybe there is a PPC-specific driver module for IDE optical devices??
[03:33] <wxl> that would be interesting
[03:35] <wxl> of course it might be here (it's not) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCKnownIssues
[03:35] <jmarsden> I'm not PPC-oriented enough to know... you could see if the folks in #debianppc can help, although they may decide not to help because you are not running Debian...
[03:37] <jmarsden> wxl: Have you tried an Lubuntu 11.10 beta or daily PPC image, or only 11.04 ?
[03:37] <wxl> my only choice is 11.10
[03:38] <wxl> (from what i can find)
[03:39] <jmarsden> OK... you could see whether the same issue exists in http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/<IP_ADDRESS>/powerpc/iso-cd/debian-<IP_ADDRESS>-powerpc-CD-1.iso perhaps?
[03:40] <wxl> sigh
[03:40] <jmarsden> Keeping older hardware alive takes work... if you don't enjoy it, buy a modern cheap PC and be done with it :)
[03:41] <wxl> well i can tell you without a doubt the problemS i had with the ubiquity installer had NOTHINg to do with the hardware
[03:42] <jmarsden> wxl: well, I can tell you without a doubt that most users of x86 PCs trying out Ubuntu do not start looking for ide-scsi ...
[03:42]  * freedom07 loves getting the most out of old hardware
[03:42] <wxl> so let me run down the list of issues with the ubiquity installer:
[03:43] <wxl> about 20 packages needed updating
[03:43] <jmarsden> That's a problem with ubiquity??
[03:43] <jmarsden> How come?
[03:43] <wxl> including python-gobject
[03:43] <wxl> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/856669
[03:43] <jmarsden> packages needing updating are an issue with the overall state of the Ubunut repositories, not with one particular installer, aren't they?
[03:44] <jmarsden> *Ubuntu
[03:44] <wxl> and then to make matters worse (this being insurmountable) choose-mirror is messed up leaving for a default mirror fqdn of "mirror" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/756719
[03:44] <wxl> my point is it's not a hardware issue
[03:45] <jmarsden> My point is that you need to be clear when reporting issues.
[03:46] <jmarsden> Hmmm, bug #756719 claims to have been fixed months ago...
[03:46] <wxl> indeed it does
[03:47] <wxl> but i'll be damned if the syslog doesn't show it searching around in http://mirror/path/to/nowhere
[03:48] <jmarsden> OK... rmadison shows the supposedly-fixed release as being in Oneiric:  choose-mirror | 2.38ubuntu2 | oneiric/main/debian-installer | all
[03:48] <wxl> perhaps it has somehow not made it's way to the ppc lubuntu variant
[03:49] <jmarsden> if the bug is still there, you might want to post a comment to that bug saying so, and attaching relevant log entries.
[03:49] <jmarsden> Lubuntu use the same repositories as all other variants.  PPC uses the same repositories as other CPU architectures.
[03:49]  * wxl shrugs
[03:49] <wxl> you tell me why it's not there then
[03:50] <jmarsden> I'm working on it!!
[03:50] <jmarsden> I can't trouble shoot a regression in a CPu arch I don't have here instantly :)
[03:51] <phillw> wxl: jmarsden I went through through this earlier and asked wxl to try alternate with 11,10. He reported it was going okay?
[03:51] <wxl> no, phillw .. the alternate cd can't detect the cdrom
[03:51] <wxl> i went through all sorts of hassle to try to get to the bottom of that to no avail
[03:52] <wxl> so basically the two available installation options don't work
[03:52] <jmarsden> I'd expect the choose-mirror issue can be worked around with some patience and switching to a shell at the appropriate place during the install process...
[03:53] <wxl> i would think so too but can't find enough info on it to test that out
[03:53] <phillw> jmarsden: the choose mirror can be, but if the alt is failing, it needs re-flagging.
[03:53] <wxl> i would also think there's a config file like sources.list where that "mirror" derives from
[03:54] <jmarsden> wxl: Hmmm?  Read the source code for choose-mirror, see what it is supposed to do automatically, and do that my hand... what do you mean "can't find enough info on it" ?  The sources are insufficient?
[03:55] <wxl> i was hoping for something more along the lines of documentation.
[03:56] <jmarsden> wxl: There is probably a man page in the choose-mirror source package, did you look?
[03:57] <jmarsden> Hmmm, well, close... there is a README file, at least :)
[03:57] <wxl> yeah i think i found that
[03:57] <wxl> didn't seem to find anything useful in scanning through it
[03:58] <jmarsden> Well, it says the function of choose-mirror is to set 3 debconf variables.  So worst case you set those by hand to whatever you need, instead of letting choose-mirror do it... right?
[03:59] <wxl> gotta find that read me again
[04:00] <jmarsden> mkdir -p /tmp/choose-mirror ; cd /tmp/choose-mirror ; apt-get source choose-mirror ; cd cho* ; less README
[04:05] <wxl> interesting
[04:05] <wxl> i remember this now
[04:06] <wxl> i got around the issue with pygobject by installing python-gobject
[04:06] <wxl> but could not figure out any way to install choose-mirror
[04:06] <wxl> can't find it
[04:07] <jmarsden> To read the README, you just need to download and unpack the source package, no actual need to install choose-mirror for that.
[04:07] <wxl> that's my point though
[04:07] <wxl> it couldn't install because it couldn't find it
[04:07] <wxl> similarly, it can't grab the source because it can't find it
[04:08] <wxl> so mayhap therein lies my problem
[04:08] <jmarsden> You can grab the sources on some other machine, not the PPC one you are trying to install onto.  Do you really have no working computers at all that can download files from the Internet?  If not, how are you connected to IRC??
[04:09] <wxl> telekinesis
[04:09] <jmarsden> OK, so teleport the README into your brain and you will be all set :)
[04:09] <wxl> again, the point is i have no problem installing all sorts of things nor any problem connecting to the internet on the ppc machine
[04:09] <jmarsden> Then you can read that README :)
[04:10] <wxl> let's put it to you this way-- you can apt-get install choose-mirror?
[04:11] <jmarsden> No, but did you try the commands I suggested earlier?  They worked for me here.
[04:11] <wxl> curious still
[04:11] <wxl> apt-get source choose-mirror fails
[04:11] <wxl> it can't find the package
[04:12] <jmarsden> OK.  Works for me on Ubuntu 10.04.2.  I'll retry in a Oneiric VM in a moment.
[04:14] <jmarsden> mkdir -p /tmp/choose-mirror ; cd /tmp/choose-mirror ; apt-get source choose-mirror ; cd cho* ; less README   # works for me in Lubuntu 11.10 Beta2 with updates.
[04:14] <jmarsden> What Ubuntu variant are you running on which it fails?
[04:14] <wxl> 11.10
[04:15] <wxl> and of course it tis Lubuntu ;D
[04:16] <wxl> grabbed it 30 sept
[04:16] <jmarsden> OK... sudo apt-get update    and try again?
[04:16] <wxl> i guess i could burn yet another
[04:16] <wxl> already did
[04:17] <jmarsden> What is the exact error you are getting from apt-get source choose-mirror ?
[04:18] <wxl> E: Unable to find a source package for choose-mirror
[04:19] <jmarsden> Does it do that for all source packages?  Or only choose-mirror?
[04:19] <wxl> just choose-mirror
[04:20] <jmarsden> Strange.  Which mirror are you using for source packages?
[04:21] <wxl> i.e. what is sources.list, right?
[04:22] <jmarsden> Yes.  grep deb-src /etc/apt/sources.list | grep main
[04:22] <wxl> cuz there we have 3 pointers to ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports
[04:22] <wxl> all of which include main
[04:22] <wxl> as does the cdrom
[04:24] <jmarsden> Oh... that's not a "normal" official Ubuntu repo mirror... if you switch to us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu does it then let you get the choose-mirror sources?
[04:26] <jmarsden> Although http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/c/choose-mirror/choose-mirror_2.38ubuntu2.tar.gz works fine for me...
[04:27] <jmarsden> As does    dget -u -x http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/c/choose-mirror/choose-mirror_2.38ubuntu2.dsc
[04:27] <jmarsden> So that *looks* OK.
[04:27] <wxl> you're sudidn't work
[04:27] <wxl> oops
[04:27] <wxl> still same error
[04:27] <jmarsden> OK.  Does this work for you (in a temp directory somewhere):  dget -u -x http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/c/choose-mirror/choose-mirror_2.38ubuntu2.dsc
[04:29] <wxl> heh
[04:29] <wxl> now can't find wget
[04:29] <wxl> or dget
[04:29] <jmarsden> I thought you said you had a working machine with Internet access... :)
[04:30] <wxl> rather dget isn't on here and can't find the package
[04:30] <wxl> wget is here
[04:30] <wxl> and it connectts to ports.ubuntu.com
[04:30] <wxl> but 404s
[04:30] <jmarsden> Ah, dget is part of devscripts
[04:30] <wxl> ah my fault
[04:30] <wxl> typo
[04:30] <wxl> no problem with wget
[04:31] <jmarsden> So the mirror has the file, and you have access to the files at that URL... so why doesn't apt know about them?  Either its database is corrupted or it is not configured correctly??
[04:31] <wxl> yeah i'm clueless
[04:35] <jmarsden> Does   apt-get source choose-mirror --print-uris     provide any additional clues?
[04:36] <wxl> sadly same message
[04:37] <wxl> i moved the flag around just in case the syntax was wrong-- no change
[04:38] <jmarsden> No, that syntax works here :)   OK, in the name of science I'll set my Lubuntu VM to use that ports repo and see what happens...
[04:42] <jmarsden> Works fine for me.
[04:42] <wxl> hilarious
[04:42] <jmarsden> So it is not that ports mirror, it is something local to your machine(s) that is causing the issue, as far as I can tell.
[04:43] <wxl> how old is that iso of yours?
[04:44] <jmarsden> Which one?  I am running Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS as my host OS, and Lubuntu 11.10 updated as of an hour ago in a VM.
[04:44] <jmarsden> Host is amd64, VM is i386
[04:45] <jmarsden> I *could* try setting up a PPC VM using qemu, but I don't think that is exactly trivial...
[04:45] <Unit193> You could always go with PearPC :P
[04:46] <wxl> oh never used that
[04:46] <jmarsden> I've heard of it but never tried it...
[04:46] <wxl> qemu kind of sucks
[04:46] <wxl> i mean it works but it's a PITA to get set up
[04:56] <phillw> wxl: don't stress jmarsden He can stress himself enough. jmarsden if you two think the bug still exists from https://launchpad.net/bugs/756719 then resurrect it
[04:56] <phillw> it is possible that is a regression
[04:57] <jmarsden> phillw: Well, I can't tell if it still exists, I have not reproduced it... but wxl could reopen the bug, I already suggested that.
[04:58] <wxl> working on it
[04:58] <jmarsden> phillw: Re stress... I'm going AFK in ~2 minutes anyway, since I promised my wife I would... :)
[04:59] <phillw> I was going to bed 5 hours ago... I promised my body :P ... I'll hang on... you got loom after your better half
[04:59] <M0hi> lol
[05:00] <M0hi> I promised my Bed, that I ll never get away from it. But now, @ Ofiice :[
[05:00] <jmarsden> Goodnight all... :)
[05:00] <phillw> tc, jmarsden
[05:01] <M0hi> g'nite jmarsden

[10:06] <android> yes thats installed
[10:08] <android> using cable now eth0 when i click on that icon it says Driver8139too
[10:13] <emce_PL> then download it and jockey wil do the rest
[10:18] <android> what? it says im already running driver8139too ????? but im on cable does it interfer with each other or whaaat?
[10:21] <emce_PL> paste what lcpci | grep network says

[11:22] <emce_PL> congrats!
[11:22] <emce_PL> it wasn't so hard, was it?
[11:22] <emce_PL> "just a little help from my friends" ;)
[11:24] <android> thx alot really ,but my mistake thought realtec 8139 was my device but it was broadcom that was the wifi device :(( but its running now!!
[11:25] <emce_PL> one must live long to know , one must live long to learn
[11:25] <android> yes thats right......does virtualbox work in lubuntu?
[11:26] <emce_PL> sure does
[11:26] <emce_PL> like a charm
[11:26] <emce_PL> with almost every OS :)
[11:27] <android> must install it play around with my android phone :))
[11:29] <android> lubuntu is not in that list at virtualbox.org
[11:29] <emce_PL> but ubuntu is, and from some time it's almost the same

[17:40] <Petruchio> Hi.  I'm trying to get the scanner working on a Brother printer.  `lsusb` is reporting it as Bus 001 Device 002, but when xsane complains, "Failed to open device `brother4:bus1;dev5`: Invalid argument.
[17:43] <Petruchio> XSane is actually showing it available twice under device selection:  at [brother4;bus1;dev5] and at [escl:http://<IP_ADDRESS>:60000].  I get that error from the former choice.  The latter lets me get to the scan dialog; when I go to scan, I hear the scanner servos start, then get the message, "Failed to start scanner: Invalid argument".
[17:44] <Petruchio> Which was what I was getting on the other one, as well, before I made some additions in the config files.
[17:46] <Petruchio> E.g. in /lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane-rules I have:  ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"
[18:01] <skramer> Hello together. Does anybody know by chance how the online accounts in system settings could be renamed? Where can a find the related config files?
[18:02] <skramer> And on the other hand, why does Dolphin give me "Response with invalid content type" when I try to access my Google Drive?
[18:09] <viewer|84> Hello
[18:09] <viewer|84> Good Evening
[18:10] <viewer|84> I am interested to learn Kubuntu
[18:10] <viewer|84> I am fresher in this field
[18:11] <viewer|84> Can you please share me the benefits of learning Kubuntu please
[18:12] <diogenes_> viewer|84, to discover a new awesome world.
[18:13] <viewer|84> Can you please share me study materials
[18:15] <diogenes_> !documentation
[18:17] <diogenes_> !guide
[18:17] <diogenes_> nope
[18:17] <viewer|84> yes
[18:17] <diogenes_> this is the guide you want: https://help.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[18:19] <diogenes_> !ops please include the The Kubuntu Desktop Guide in !documentation or !guide.
[19:35] <skramer> Nobody knows how or where the online accounts in system settings could be renamed?
[19:39] <skramer> Another question is how to get rid of the small preview icons on folders in Dolphin. I would prefer to see the folder only...
[20:07] <skramer> Okay, I found the answer to this one: Another question is how to get rid of the small preview icons on folders in Dolphin. I would prefer to see the folder only... - Uncheck "View > Show Preview" in Dolphin.
[20:07] <skramer> Just as a record for those how may have the same question ;-)
[20:41] <user|52916> Is it possible to upgrade the system 20.04 to 20.10?
[21:44] <rangergord> does anyone recognize the window manager here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i00OLyh0RvQ&t=8m35s
[21:44] <rangergord> I'm told it's KDEish
[21:57] <kryten> rangergord: Do you mean desktop environment instead?  That'd be LXQt then.
[22:16] <Kurozen> Man kubuntu/ubuntu becomes so laggy after it sits idle for a few hours AFK
[22:16] <Kurozen> happened on 3 different machines totally different and a laptop too, 18.04 and 20.04
[22:16] <Kurozen> Some kind of a freak bug
[22:17] <Kurozen> May be some kind of trashing of memory, I have it installed on HDD, but there is no resource exhaustion, why does it need to store GUI stuff to HDD, even after a few minutes of resuming (not sleep/hibernate) it still is laggier than if I made a fresh boot
[22:21] <Kurozen> Barely any CPU usage, or I missed it, but man it just froze for 10 seconds 3 times aorund
[22:26] <Kurozen> Well obviously something's in "disk sleep" it's using 1GB of SWAP
[22:28] <Kurozen> So these firefox tabs are going into SWAP and have to come back out ...
[22:29] <Kurozen> It just happens like after having the PC up for 24 hours or more and then idling for like 5-6 hours
[22:29] <Kurozen> Which happens a lot
[22:31] <Kurozen> So weird, those tabs were using RAM, only a tiny bit of SWAP, takes forever for them to load, then after I close them ram goes down a lot
[22:31] <Kurozen> RAM went down 1GB, but SAWP only 20 MB
[22:32] <Kurozen> sorry, RAM Went down 200 MB
