[03:22] <eeepcwifi> HELP!!  OS: Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix | Problem, Trying to report a bug using ubuntu-bug <PID>. I used the PID for network-manager-gnome and its saying "The probme cannot be reported, this is not a genuine ubuntu package"
[03:22] <jokeem> what else can I try?
[03:23] <EastDallas> elux: is that how you changed it the first time, or have you tried rebooting since you ran the command i just gave you?
[03:23] <jokeem> a system restore would be nice :(
[03:23] <EastDallas> !repeat | eeepcwifi
[03:24] <rip> has anyone installed the nouveau driver for a computer w/ an nvidia video cards?  how does one do this?
[03:24] <eeepcwifi> :) well whats the repeat delay?
[03:24] <SolarisBoy> brb guys
[03:24] <malnek> could anyone here recommend a good newsreader for use with giganews and newzbin? (.nzb files)
[03:24] <nomasteryoda> pan
[03:24] <RainbowEyes> I have a minor issue: xchat won't beep on highlights or pm's, does anyone know how to fix that? it's already checked to beep in my settings
[03:25] <evon> can someone please help me build a kernel module
[03:25] <IdleOne> eeepcwifi: use ubuntu-bug network-manager-gnome
[03:25] <IdleOne> not the PID
[03:25] <eeepcwifi> idleOne: I tried that too
[03:25] <eeepcwifi> same response
[03:25] <Poul|Raider> anyone know where the List.cs is to be found, in mono project, wanted to check out the source code of it, but cant find it in system.collections.generic
[03:25] <IdleOne> the pid on your system is most certanly diffrent then on mine eeepcwifi
[03:26] <serengeti> jokeem: well, there are some things you might want to try, but I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble. Wouldn't a reinstall be quicker?
[03:26] <jokeem> yeah, but I need a lot of the stuff on there
[03:26] <jokeem> valuable info $$
[03:26] <eeepcwifi> IdleOne: it recognized that the PID was for network-manager-gnome cus it was in teh title of the error box.. so I tried just the program name and same response.. not genuine
[03:26] <jokeem> LOL
[03:26] <nomasteryoda> malnek, apt-get install pan
[03:26] <eeepcwifi> also the pid was suggested on the help pages for reporting a bug on ubuntu.com
[03:27] <evon> this is the error i am getting http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3b8b701d
[03:27] <serengeti> jokeem: can you browse to your home directory from the livecd?
[03:28] <jokeem> yeah, but theres a program called skipper that saved your passwords etc.. i need to run a abck from that
[03:28] <IdleOne> eeepcwifi: got me.
[03:28] <malnek> nomasteryoda, thanks :)
[03:28] <jokeem> serengeti:  maybe I could copy the FireFox folder.. some how?
[03:29] <mkquist__> jokeem: you could always do that
[03:29] <mkquist__> jokeem: do you have another hd?
[03:29] <jokeem> wheres the ff folder?
[03:29] <jokeem> nah, i has cds^^
[03:29] <eeepcwifi> I sometimes feel like I am cursed with this netbook.
[03:30] <malnek> jeez, its been too long since i used any sort of os other than win. How can i grep in top after firefox pid number?
[03:30] <mkquist__> jokeem: is the hd partitioned into more than one partition?
[03:30] <jokeem> mkquist__:  also, how do i see all the installed programs i have, so i can atleast remember the names of them all.
[03:30] <eeepcwifi> ps ax | grep -i firefox
[03:30] <jokeem> mkquist__:  believe not
[03:30] <jokeem> i have windows and ubnu
[03:30] <jokeem> ubuntu*
[03:30] <eeepcwifi> malnek: ps ax | grep -i firefox
[03:31] <malnek> eeepcwifi, thanks!
[03:31] <RainbowEyes> so, does anybody know why xchat won't beep even though it's set to beep in the alerts settings? didn't really find anything on the internet
[03:31] <mkquist__> serengeti: hows about he just removes and reinstalls the package xserver-xorg-video-radeon from the command line in recovery mode?
[03:31] <eeepcwifi> malnek: you can't run grep on top :( but you can use -p and the pid.. lol but you need the pid first
[03:32] <eeepcwifi> malnek: so use ps
[03:32] <EastDallas> Hey DugOut!
[03:32] <malnek> eeepcwifi, will remember that. Great tip thanks again
[03:32] <serengeti> mkquist__: do you know which radeon is it? maybe it's a newer one and he needs fglrx?
[03:32] <Hilikus> is there a way to know the size of a diff in svn between the working copy and HEAD?
[03:32] <eeepcwifi> malnek: np
[03:32] <mkquist__> serengeti: 3200
[03:33] <jokeem> mk mkquist__ can i make a backup off my installed programs on the live cd, then ill copy the home folder/desktop, then firefox
[03:33] <serengeti> mkquist__: well he needs fglrx ;)
[03:34] <serengeti> jokeem: do you know if your ubuntu install is 32 or 64 bit?
[03:34] <tLoFP> how can I make an .iso Image of a CD?
[03:34] <jokeem> serengeti:  32
[03:35] <jiohdi> tLoFP: dd if=cdromx of=whatever.iso
[03:35] <serengeti> jokeem: well if you want to try one more thing...
[03:35] <tLoFP> jiohdi: like dat... for real? no software to install?
[03:35] <jokeem> serengeti:  sure.
[03:35] <jiohdi> tLoFP: dd does it all :)
[03:36] <puff> Dang.
[03:36] <eeepcwifi> is 10 minutes enough time for repeating my help request?
[03:36] <puff> I'm trying to install the firefox daily build, but it failed.
[03:36] <serengeti> jokeem: you can go to http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.2&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.25&lang=English
[03:36] <arghh2d2> tLoFP: you think thats neat, check out www.commandfu.com
[03:36] <serengeti> and download that driver
[03:37] <tLoFP> jiohdi it didn't find cdromx
[03:37] <jokeem> k
[03:37] <arghh2d2> tLoFP: www.commandlinefu.com
[03:37] <f1lt3r> Hey guys, how do I diff a certain number of lines?
[03:37] <f1lt3r> From terminal?
[03:37] <jiohdi> tLoFP: you have to sub cdromx for your actual location
[03:37] <jokeem> serengeti:  LOL, i just typed k and pressed enter on my laptop... im so stressed atm
[03:37] <jiohdi> tLoFP: it was not meant to be literal
[03:37] <tLoFP> jiohdi: I have cdrom and cdrom0 both seem to access the disk, whats the diff?
[03:37] <jiohdi> tLoFP: it could be something like /media/cdrom0
[03:37] <puff> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d4ee1e644
[03:38] <RainbowEyes> um... does anybody know why xchat's not giving me a beep on highlights or pm's even though I set it to do so in the alerts settings?... *one last try for now >_>*
[03:38] <tLoFP> jiohdi: yea I have /media/cdrom and /media/cdrom0 but they both direct me to the contents of the cd
[03:38] <mkquist__> serengeti: then hell have to boot to recovery and install from cl
[03:38] <jiohdi> tLoFP: than it likely does not matter which you use
[03:38] <mkquist__> jokeem: no you cannot backup 'onto' the live cd
[03:38] <puff> Anyone?  Bueler?
[03:38] <puff> sigh.
[03:38] <mkquist__> jokeem: you can burn it to a cd if you have a burner
[03:38] <jokeem> mkquist__:  from , not to.
[03:39] <tLoFP> jiohdi: dd: reading `/media/cdrom': Is a directory
[03:39] <eeepcwifi> HELP!!  OS: Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix | Problem, Trying to report a bug using ubuntu-bug <PID>. I used the PID for network-manager-gnome and its saying "The probme cannot be reported, this is not a genuine ubuntu package"
[03:39] <tLoFP> no .iso
[03:39] <serengeti> mkquist__: maybe chroot would work?
[03:39] <mkquist__> jokeem: i thought you wanted to back up your install?
[03:39] <tLoFP> jiohdi: cdrom0 does the same
[03:39] <jokeem> yeah i did
[03:39] <jiohdi> tLoFP: dd turns the contents into an iso file
[03:39] <jokeem> serengeti:  whats chroot?
[03:39] <mkquist__> serengeti: chroot to what?
[03:39] <eeepcwifi> I guess the real problem is that ubuntu-bug doesn't see network-manager-gnome as a genuine package
[03:39] <ToastedPine> could be because you don't have a sound file xchat is pointed to
[03:40] <mkquist__> serengeti: to do what rather?
[03:40] <tLoFP> jiohdi: no... you .... you can't make .iso that fast
[03:40] <tLoFP> its... its not possible... is it ?
[03:40] <jiohdi> tLoFP: you can I have done it
[03:40] <tLoFP> jiohdi: I mean it was instant
[03:40] <mkquist__> jokeem: whats the output of - lspci -nn | grep VGA
[03:41] <EastDallas> puff: did you try installing the two packages mentioned in the error?
[03:41] <jiohdi> tLoFP: check the size of the file
[03:41] <tLoFP> jiohdi: lol no the iso is 0 bytes, something wrong
[03:41] <serengeti> mkquist__: well it makes programs think they live in a different filesystem, in a way
[03:41] <serengeti> mkquist__: so you can run apt-get and stuff from the live cd, but it works on your hard drive install
[03:42] <jokeem> mkquist__:  01.05.0 VGA compatiable controller
[03:42] <mkquist__> serengeti: to install gfx driver?
[03:42] <jiohdi> tLoFP: check out http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/learn-the-dd-command-362506/
[03:42] <jokeem> mkquist__:  ATI TECH RS780M radesen HD 3200 graphics.. etc
[03:42] <EastDallas> puff: did you try installing the two packages mentioned in the error?
[03:42] <jiohdi> tLoFP: I may have left out something
[03:42] <mkquist__> anyone else wanna comment on that?
[03:42] <ToastedPine> Hmm, anyone have experience with running an existing partition of ubuntu as a guest in virtualbox? It's on the same HD, and I'm wondering if I'm doing potentially unholy things to it by doing so.
[03:42] <serengeti> mkquist__: I have never tried it :p
[03:43] <mkquist__> jokeem: and then glxinfo |grep vendor
[03:43] <serengeti> mkquist__: in theory, nothing can go wrong :)
[03:43] <jokeem> unkown chip id. cant guess.
[03:43] <eeepcwifi> :)
[03:43] <arghh2d2> ToastedPine: thats not how it works
[03:44] <mkquist__> serengeti: you get to walk him thru that one... =p
[03:44] <ToastedPine> arghh2d2: not how what works?
[03:45] <serengeti> jokeem: how's the download going, by the way?
[03:45] <hiexpo> wow still as busy as ever in here
[03:45] <jokeem> im putting it on a usb now
[03:45] <serengeti> jokeem: that driver I've linked to
[03:45] <serengeti> jokeem, you don't need to
[03:45] <puff> EastDallas: Well, tried that and hten tried apt-get install firefox again, now when I start firefox I get a popup that says History Tree Extension - Overlay Initialization Error.
[03:45] <jokeem> serengeti:  yes, i do.. if i downlaoded it on my PC lol
[03:46] <serengeti> jokeem: I see ;)
[03:46] <dj_segfault> I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10.  Can't find the gnome applet that lets me adjust the volume and open the mixer.  Anyone know where that went?
[03:46] <hiexpo> top right had corner
[03:46] <jokeem> serengeti: installing now...
[03:46] <serengeti> jokeem: how are you installing it?
[03:47] <serengeti> jokeem: on the livecd?
[03:47] <jokeem> serengeti:  yes
[03:47] <serengeti> jokeem: then stop ;)
[03:47] <jokeem> serengeti:  i double click, run in terminal..
[03:47] <jokeem> serengeti:  lol kk
[03:47] <serengeti> jokeem: it won't work
[03:47] <jokeem> serengeti:  i fgured
[03:47] <dj_segfault> hiexpo: If that was to me, I know where it's *SUPPOSED* to be.  But it isn't there, and when I click on add applet, there's nothing about sound/audio/volume control there
[03:48] <serengeti> jokeem: can you copy it to your home directory on the hard drive?
[03:48] <hiexpo> let me look what its actually called one sec
[03:48] <serengeti> jokeem: the one that has all your documents and stuff in it
[03:49] <jokeem> permission denied...
[03:49] <serengeti> jokeem: ok
[03:49] <jokeem> :(

[03:50] <serengeti> jokeem: and that driver file is just there, I mean it's not in a subdirectory or anything?
[03:50] <Flare-Laptop> andydbzee: spam?
[03:50] <mkquist__> serengeti: you gonna have him install the fglrx driver?
[03:50] <tLoFP> jiohdi: I did through the GUI, it seems to be working on it now
[03:51] <dj_segfault> andydbzee: smite

[03:51] <serengeti> mkquist__: daredevil I am :] but it's easy to do nowadays.
[03:52] <jokeem> serengeti:   i tell you what, help me backup ff, and i reinstall the crap ;)
[03:52] <dj_segfault> hiexpo: There's about four pages of matches
[03:52] <Flare-Laptop> skeelol: Please don't spam
[03:52] <mkquist__> jokeem: im thinking you still could edit you xorg.conf - i tossed up a pastebin, try sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf(tab to finish)   and replace the device section with the pastebin
[03:53] <jph_> If I want to prevent apache from starting on boot where do i go to change that
[03:53] <serengeti> jokeem: that's easy: go to your home dir on the hard drive and click View - Show hidden files
[03:53] <jokeem> mkquist__:  ok..
[03:53] <hiexpo> ok let me check one other thing
[03:53] <mkquist__> jokeem: youll have to change the name to just xorg.conf though to try it - again on you hard drive install not the live cd
[03:54] <serengeti> jokeem: firefox stuff is in the directory called ".mozilla"
[03:54] <mkquist__> jokeem:  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3f5ec395
[03:54] <LinuX2half> why I can't seem to upgrade my firefox?
[03:54] <jokeem> mkquist__:  don't worry, im reinstalling it.
[03:54] <mkquist__> jokeem: or you can just reinstall, your choice
[03:54] <LinuX2half> I open the browser as root but it doesn't display the update option
[03:54] <jokeem> mkquist__: k 4 hours of trying, straight.. give up
[03:54] <mkquist__> jokeem: ok
[03:54] <andydbzee> i've got a problem with totem, i'm pretty sure it has to do with gstreamer. i can't seem to play dvds, vlc is not working either
[03:55] <mkquist__> jokeem: gave it a go though..  sry
[03:55] <andydbzee> i'd like to get it to work in vlc honestly
[03:55] <eeepcwifi> ubuntu-bug detects network-manager-gnome as non-genuine and wont let me report a bug with it. Any suggestions?
[03:55] <jokeem> mkquist__:  yeahh
[03:55] <jokeem> mkquist__:  nw
[03:55] <TeslaTony> LinuX2half, what version do you have and what are you trying to upgrade to?
[03:55] <dj_segfault> hiexpo: On a lark I went to system > preferences > startup applications and I see volume control in there, which is gnome-volume-control-applet.  I think that's it, but there's no volume control. I'll try to find it and run manually.
[03:55] <mkquist__> jokeem: i say back it up, give the edit a chance, it fails.. reainstall, it works, you done.
[03:56] <andydbzee>   p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }  dvdnav error: cannot set title (can't decrypt DVD?) dvdread error: fatal error in vts ifo dvdread error: DvdReadSetArea(0,0,1) failed (can't decrypt DVD?) main error: no access module matched "dvd"
[03:56] <LinuX2half> TeslaTony:Currently I'm running 3.5.7 and I'm trying to upgrade it to 3.6
[03:56] <andydbzee> this is what i get in vlc... any ideas?
[03:56] <jokeem> mkquist__:  i say throw the thing in the bin
[03:56] <mkquist__> jokeem: naw, you can do that tomorrow... =p
[03:56] <jokeem> mkquist__:  im like 3 hours behind now in school work.. could of had the best head start today lol
[03:57] <helper> is there any program like vnstat but in real time ? coz vnstat either need 5 min or manual to update ! thx
[03:57] <mkquist__> repeat after me.. dont make changes for no reas.... oh nevermind too late for that
[03:57] <jokeem> lol
[03:57] <TeslaTony> LinuX2half, try http://smartproteam.com/install-current-firefox-36-ubuntu/

[03:57] <jokeem> trying to fix that
[03:57] <serengeti> mkquist__: as I said, if all you care about is firefox then you just have to backup the .mozilla folder
[03:57] <serengeti> mkquist__: sorry wrong nick ;)
[03:57] <jokeem> will it backup my book marks too?
[03:58] <serengeti> jokeem: as I said, if all you care about is firefox then you just have to backup the .mozilla folder
[03:58] <mkquist__> serengeti: np
[03:58] <LinuX2half> I have already have those PPA source code inputed
[03:58] <serengeti> jokeem: everything including extensions, history, cookies, bookmarks etc
[03:58] <jokeem> serengeti:  ohh noo, history ^^
[03:59] <serengeti> jokeem: the best thing to do is find that .mozilla directory, right click on it and choose Compress
[03:59] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get install alsamixergui
[03:59] <jokeem> serengeti:  ok
[04:00] <hiexpo> there ya go
[04:00] <LinuX2half> Well I've try to add the sourceforge source code and already I can't seem to update my browser
[04:00] <jokeem> ARRRRRRRRRRRR. Wont let me abckup, permission denied!!!!
[04:00] <mkquist__> serengeti: so which mozilla directory?
[04:00] <jokeem> FFFFFFF**
[04:00] <mkquist__> jokeem: sudo
[04:00] <hiexpo> that should fix it
[04:00] <LinuX2half> Does anyone know to resolve this issue....?
[04:01] <jokeem> sudo what? :S
[04:01] <mkquist__> jokeem: try sudo whatever command you were trying to backup
[04:01] <mkquist__> jokeem: oh your in nautilus
[04:01] <hiexpo> LinuX2half: - whays the prob
[04:02] <jokeem> i was draging folders onto my usb.. lol
[04:02] <ToastedPine> jokeem: you could try sudo nautilus, then you could just drop drag things
[04:02] <mkquist__> jokeem: gksudo nautilus
[04:02] <jokeem> ToastedPine:  ok
[04:02] <helper> is there any program like vnstat but in real time ? coz vnstat either need 5 min or manual to update ! thx
[04:02] <mkquist__> does gksudo even matter against sudo anymore?
[04:02] <jokeem> ToastedPine:  wait.. i cant see  my other partiton when i gksudo...
[04:02] <LinuX2half> hiexpo: Alright, I'm running a 3.5.7 version of firefox and I want to upgrade the browser to 3.6 but when I run the browser as root it doesn't display the "check for updates" option.
[04:03] <serengeti> jokeem: in the terminal, do
[04:03] <serengeti> "cd ~/Desktop"
[04:03] <mkquist__> jokeem: look in media
[04:03] <puff> Hm, I tried to install the firefox daily build via the PPA.  This broke, citing dependency on abrowser-brnading and firefox-branding.   I installed those packages manually and firefox then refused to start, instead popping up a warning "History Tree Extension - Overlay Initialization Error."
[04:03] <jokeem> No media?
[04:03] <ToastedPine> O_O
[04:03] <mkquist__> serengeti: wont that just put him in the root folder?
[04:03] <LinuX2half> hiexpo: I've also added the source code and the daily build.
[04:03] <serengeti> jokeem: then "sudo tar -cf moz.tar /media/disk/home/YOURUSERNAME/.mozilla"
[04:04] <eeepcwifi> helper: for realtime I use iftop and for logging purposes I use ntop
[04:04] <serengeti> mkquist: it should put him on the livecd desktop
[04:04] <hiexpo> LinuX2half: - i am not sure about that but i think you have to download and install it manually
[04:04] <mkquist__> serengeti: if he sudo nautilus?
[04:04] <puff> I then removed the daily build PPA from my /etcapt/sources.list and then apt-get removed firefox, apt-get removed abrowser-brnading, apt-get removed firefox-branding.   Installed firefox, it failed to run.  Removed it and reinstalled it two or three times and it finally is sorta working, though it'smissing the /usr/bin/firefox alias to /usr/bin/firefox-3.0
[04:04] <puff> Any advice here?
[04:04] <serengeti> mkquist__: but he can't see the partitions if he does sudo nautils
[04:05] <helper> eeepcwifi, what i need is to check the bandwidth usage in real time like if my users are downloading how much !! Does ntop do this?
[04:05] <mkquist__> why not?
[04:05] <mkquist__> serengeti: why not?
[04:05] <serengeti> mkquist__: dunno, but that's what he said.
[04:05] <jokeem> ok ff backed up
[04:05] <jokeem> can i sue that command for other dirctories?
[04:05] <jokeem> use*
[04:05] <mkquist__> serengeti: cause he started in diff place
[04:06] <serengeti> jokeem: you have that moz.tar file on the desktop?
[04:06] <ToastedPine> hmmm, it's a long shot, but chmod 777 <path to folder> might be able to make copying possible.
[04:06] <jokeem> serengeti:  yes
[04:06] <serengeti> jokeem: have you checked what's inside?
[04:06] <jokeem> ser yeah
[04:06] <jokeem> serengeti:  firefox.. my addons.. etc
[04:07] <jokeem> bookmarks
[04:07] <eeepcwifi> helper: ntop will graphically track overall usage as well as individual ip traffics going through your gateway. It keeps statistical logs of everything and updates realtime. Its webbased and uses its own built in webserver. Iftop is great for getting current traffic based on an interface (eg. iftop -i eth0) but it doesn't keep statistical logs. I manage 30 servers and use iftop for quick spot checks if its running slow and ntop for history to see when /
[04:07] <jokeem> serengeti:  ill use that command for toher folders?
[04:08] <serengeti> jokeem: you can but you might run out of space
[04:08] <jokeem> ill delete as I go serengeti
[04:09] <serengeti> jokeem: the thing is that your livecd desktop has very little free space
[04:09] <eeepcwifi> helper: ntop also gives you top users and you can go in and see exactly what traffic they were doing and when. As well as their throughput.
[04:09] <mkquist__> serengeti:  isnt he copying this to a usb drive?
[04:09] <LinuX2half> hiexpo: oh okay then thanks
[04:09] <serengeti> jokeem: so you might want to do "cd /media/Lexer" in the terminal so that the files end up on the pendrive
[04:09] <jokeem> mkquist__:  yea lol
[04:09] <jokeem> ok
[04:09] <serengeti> mkquist__: I told him to do cd ~/Desktop before ;)
[04:10] <eeepcwifi> helper: I think ntop is what yoru looking for if you need statistical history. but if you just need to do a quick check on who is doing what right now then iftop provides a very low overhead command line interface thats really quick and easy.
[04:11] <ToastedPine> http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2007/12/access_linux_files_from_window/   <--- copy firefox backup in windows?
[04:11] <LinuX2half> When will ubuntu finished packaging firefox 3.6?
[04:11] <eeepcwifi> helper: but ntop can be used to see who is doing what right now as well, but is more resource intense by nature.
[04:11] <hiexpo> LinuX2half: - no prob sorry i couldn't help
[04:11] <kad_>  eeepcwifi  downloaded ntop! http://localhost => for web log?
[04:11] <mkquist__> LinuX2half: chrome...
[04:11] <LinuX2half> hiexpo that's alright, but I thanked for your effort
[04:11] <zenlunatic> LinuX2half: probably april
[04:12] <serengeti> jokeem: before you do the reinstall, please check that all the files really are in the archives you create and on the usb drive, ok? :P
[04:12] <LinuX2half> That long...?
[04:12] <mkquist__> jokeem: I'm still of the opinion that its worth on more reboot after editing the xorg.conf file...  If that works your done.. no reinstall
[04:12] <jokeem> serengeti:  lol i will
[04:12] <jokeem> mkquist__:  doubt it will lol
[04:13] <mkquist__> jokeem: youd be surpised, i used to install when i ran into problems before, but now ive found that it can usually be fixed pretty easily and you learn
[04:13] <eeepcwifi> kad: you need to configure it's conf file and then connect to it by port.. eg http://localhost:5423 or what ever port you configure it to run on
[04:13] <mkquist__> jokeem:  oops- in the process
[04:13] <jokeem> mkquist__:  I guess, but im on the verge of smashing things..
[04:13] <serengeti> mkquist__: I agree, reinstalling is generally against the linux spirit ;) but if he's already so much late...
[04:13] <eeepcwifi> Kad: I use ntop in OpenSuSE and its config file is located in /etc/sysconfig/ntop
[04:14] <mkquist__> serengeti: i know, but thats one thing that has not been done... and its simple
[04:15] <eeepcwifi> kad: you need to configure the interface it listens on, port it will run its webserver on and what user it will run its webserver with and other settings for performance
[04:15] <jph_> If I want to prevent apache from starting on boot where do i go to change that
[04:15] <serengeti> jokeem: I have to go anyway. you can always try the xorg.conf thing after you've backed up your stuff and just check if the system boots ok
[04:15] <LinuX2half> okay then I'll wait patiently until its furnished just like last time
[04:15] <jokeem> ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:15] <jokeem> wait serengeti
[04:15] <serengeti> jokeem: ?
[04:16] <jokeem> please,
[04:16] <jokeem> how can i use that command to backup other things
[04:16] <jokeem> saying no such file or dir
[04:16] <jokeem> how can i do all of it at once.. actually
[04:16] <viersya> .....
[04:17] <LinuX2half> is there some way where I can see the progress of the firefox version development..?
[04:17] <eeepcwifi> kad: for example I run mine with this: /usr/bin/ntop -P /var/lib/ntop -i eth0 -u wwwrun -w <INTERFACE_IP>:5423 -b -n -z
[04:17] <eeepcwifi> The -P is where it will store its database -b -n -z are for performance reasons
[04:17] <LinuX2half> I'm not sure if there's a site to track the progress of the developing version online......
[04:17] <jokeem> can I backup from windows? cause I have a large aprtiotn there.. ill just backup the whole l ot
[04:17] <mkquist__> serengeti: lookit the output of glxinfo |grep vendor, unknown chip id. cant guess, so the machine doesnt know what its dealing with
[04:18] <elnur> hello
[04:18] <mkquist__> jokeem: windows doesnt usually read from ext partitions...
[04:18] <serengeti> jokeem: maybe try tar cvf everything.tar /media/disk/home/yourusernamehere    - it would copy your entire home dir
[04:18] <eeepcwifi> kad: you'll see that i specify port 5423 so when connecting to its web interface i use http://<IP>:5423
[04:18] <ranjan> i am not being able to b rouse my network place from nautilus  it is giving an error message of Failed to retrieve share list from server   any help would be of great help
[04:18] <jokeem> serengeti:  ok, cheers
[04:19] <mkquist__> serengeti: if he has a windows part- why  not back up there?
[04:19] <jokeem> serengeti:  it's working :)
[04:20] <aliendude3500> Are there any devs on here that are working on the new software center rating system? I was looking at the concepts and I noticed that the term "Ubuntu Single Sign-On Account" is used. Is this just your Launchpad account?
[04:20] <serengeti> mkquist__: I guess it doesn't make much difference
[04:20] <eeepcwifi> kad_: but you may want to look at iftop its much simpler and great for quick spot checks
[04:20] <mkquist__> serengeti: more space?
[04:20] <rww> aliendude3500: I'm not familiar with the spec, but I would imagine so, yes.
[04:20] <andydbzee> crazy
[04:21] <andydbzee> ok. so i can't play dvds
[04:21] <rww> aliendude3500: since Launchpad is what's used for Ubuntu One (and practically everything else).
[04:21] <serengeti> mkquist__: touche. but maybe the usb drive has enough room? we'll see...
[04:21] <aliendude3500> Well, if any devs see this, I think it would be much better to make the dialog just say "Launchpad account" instead of "Ubuntu Single Sign-On account". MUCH less redundant. :)
[04:21] <andydbzee> and i think i deleted all my media dependencies
[04:21] <mkquist__> serengeti: hope
[04:21] <drenyx> l
[04:22] <jokeem> apprently it doesn't
[04:22] <serengeti> mkquist__: I think at the moment fglrx is needed for opengl acceleration on ati HD3200
[04:22] <andydbzee> anyone good with vlc errors?
[04:22] <drenyx> anyone know why my terminal/console garbles up ansi/ncurses stuff?
[04:22] <serengeti> jokeem: out of space?
[04:22] <jokeem> maybe I can backit up remotely to my windows machine...... some how
[04:22] <jokeem> serengeti:  yea lol
[04:22] <aliendude3500> I know you guys are trying to make this seem super easy and obvious for new users, but Launchpad account is shorter, better sounding, and not any harder to understand.
[04:23] <serengeti> jokeem: delete the movies :p
[04:23] <tarek> bongoir
[04:23] <andydbzee> thats silly
[04:24] <jokeem> serengeti:  got none son :P
[04:24] <serengeti> jokeem: but seriously, what's the name of your windows partition on the livecd desktop?
[04:24] <jokeem> ill see if i can borrow my friend external HDD
[04:24] <jokeem> umm
[04:24] <jokeem> ACER
[04:24] <serengeti> jokeem: ok so in the terminal do cd /media/ACER
[04:24] <andydbzee> my best friend is google
[04:25] <serengeti> and then that tar thing
[04:25] <uwall-e> can anyone help me to write data to a hfsplust external?
[04:25] <jokeem> ur a legend
[04:25] <serengeti> maybe there's enough room on your windows drive
[04:25] <jokeem> ...if it works :)
[04:25] <jokeem> 100gb should do it :)
[04:25] <serengeti> jokeem: it's actually mkquist__'s idea ;)
[04:26] <jokeem> <3 mkquist__  & serengeti
[04:26] <mkquist__> serengeti: just need to get him fixed, whoevers idea.. =)
[04:26] <serengeti> jokeem: but I really have to go, it's 5:26 am where I live
[04:26] <jokeem> serengeti:  ok thanks heaps for the help
[04:26] <mkquist__> jokeem:  gedit /etc/xorg.conf...
[04:26] <mkquist__> jokeem: g/l either way
[04:27] <jokeem> mkquist__:  lemme b/u first
[04:27] <serengeti> i might be not completely aware of what I'm saying anymore :P
[04:27] <mkquist__> jokeem: of course
[04:27] <uwall-e> no one have any ideas
[04:27] <uwall-e> ?
[04:27] <jokeem> lol
[04:27] <eeepcwifi> answers aren't instant from what I've learned :(
[04:28] <jokeem> mkquist__:  I'll talk to you later.. if you're still on, while it backups. I need a rest
[04:28] <serengeti> mkquist__: he's on live cd, /etc isn't interesting,  you want /media/disk/etc/foooooo
[04:28] <mkquist__> jokeem: kk
[04:28] <serengeti> mkquist__: bye
[04:28] <serengeti> jokeem: bye
[04:28] <tonsofpcs> they aren't?
[04:28] <mkquist__> serengeti: bye
[04:28] <jokeem> the home fodler as all m installed programs.. desktops... music.. pics etc right lol

[04:29] <blakkheim> SetiAmon: unrar x file.rar
[04:29] <mkquist__> jokeem: for the most part, its got your configs, not sure about all the programs though
[04:29] <jokeem> mkquist__:  ok
[04:29] <SetiAmon> blakkheim thanks i'll try that now
[04:30] <undec1m> Anyone have any tips on recovering data from a partition that failed to resize with gparted? Here's the kicker: the files were encrypted with ecryptfs.
[04:30] <uwall-e> its kinda odd that im having this much trouble with hfs+ and linux! i thought this would have been an issue that was quickly salved

[04:40] <eeepcwifi> drenyx: mud .. sounds abour right

[04:43] <wiggmpk> I just installed Karmic Koala on my notebook, currently running kernel 2.6.31-17 amd64. Every time I try to suspend my notebook, it cuts to a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have to manually power it off every time. Please help!!
[04:44] <jazz> no not googled
[04:44] <j-3-r-g_> hmmm
[04:44] <Out_Cold> wiggmpk, i occasionally get that. haven;t found a solution yet
[04:44] <j-3-r-g_> ok
[04:44] <factotum> whats a simple way to start up a sort of "transparent" bash terminal on my desktop. No window borders/background etc
[04:44] <andydbzee> i cannot get to dvd menu with xine
[04:44] <j-3-r-g_> anywayz its late i gots to go
[04:44] <andydbzee> although the dvd plays
[04:44] <j-3-r-g_> good luck with jazz
[04:45] <think__> Hello everyone
[04:45] <j-3-r-g_> later everyone
[04:45] <dabukalam> think__, Hi!
[04:45] <dabukalam> j-3-r-g_, bye!
[04:45] <andydbzee> cya
[04:45] <jazz> i was hoping for a specific idea than a random google one. on what might be or possible isnt a problem
[04:45] <Out_Cold> factotum, not sure about the transparency but yakuaki or what ever it's called is a drop down terminal.. very handy!
[04:45] <dabukalam> j-3-r-g_, bye!
[04:45] <dabukalam> I'm having problems scanning. When I run scanimage as root I have no problem, but when I run it normally I get: "scanimage: open of device brother2:bus6;dev1 failed: Error during device I/O". How can I modify the permissions on my scanner?
[04:45] <drew3> This seems to be the right place to ask about a way to make the 'mouse-cursor' in Gnome 'bigger' 9.10.
[04:46] <andydbzee> sigh
[04:46] <andydbzee> i think i'm rooted
[04:46] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, add yourself to the group associated... perhaps it's scan?
[04:46] <dabukalam> drew3, can't that be done from the appearance settings? i'm not entirely sure if you can change the size of cursors, but I know you can change the cursor theme from there
[04:47] <think__> or in gconf-editor maybe
[04:47] <dabukalam> Out_Cold: Okay, how can i view which users are in a group?
[04:47] <drew3> dabukalam: not that I could find.
[04:47] <jazz> brb
[04:47] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, sudo nano /etc/group
[04:48] <Quan-Time> anyone run steam + bioshock in WINE ? i cant get it to launch. ideas ?
[04:48] <dabukalam> drew3, try getting a larger cursor theme from gnome-look? although I'm sure there's an easier way
[04:48] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, drew3, check accesibility
[04:49] <think__> did you try gconf-editor
[04:49] <SetiAmon> eeepcwifi I tried unrar-free -x file.rar and it still failed
[04:49] <SolarisBoy> isn't it with no -?
[04:49] <drew3> cursor theme, ahh dabukalam   those terms help,  ty
[04:49] <dabukalam> Out_Cold, do I have to restart anything, or will it take changes immediately?
[04:50] <rumpsy> SetiAmon: Install unrar-nonfree
[04:50] <rumpsy> And try it
[04:50] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, i don't think it's immediate. ask around though
[04:50] <SetiAmon> but don't i have to register the nonfree version of unrar to use it
[04:50] <Out_Cold> SetiAmon, no
[04:51] <eeepcwifi> SetiAmon: what is the error it failed with?
[04:51] <Ramza> is banshee generally a bad media player?  it's taking up in excess of 800MB's of memory for me right now.
[04:51] <dabukalam> Out_Cold, yeah I have my user added to all the groups in there, saned, scanner, saneusers, but still no access
[04:51] <dabukalam> how can I chown the scanner with a group?
[04:51] <rumpsy> SetiAmon: What version of unrar you are having right now?
[04:51] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, i can't say for 100% but nay need a complete reboot for the effects to take place
[04:52] <dabukalam> Out_Cold: I'd rather restart a process, it's a server and currently serving...
[04:52] <SetiAmon> well since i just installed it i should have the latest.1.3.1
[04:53] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, you can chown the specific process but that may not help you either... might not be what you expected
[04:53] <rumpsy> Ramza: It depends upon what codec you are having and what type of media file you are playing !
[04:53] <Out_Cold> dabukalam, my server takes less than 1 min to reboot... might be worth it..
[04:53] <Out_Cold> maybe someone else here knows how to have /etc/group changes take effect
[04:54] <SetiAmon> cool it worked
[04:54] <SetiAmon> Thanks all,thanks unrar-nonfree worked
[04:54] <rumpsy> SetiAmon: :)
[04:55] <Ramza> well, for now i'll just restart it and wait.  see if it hapens again.  I like it so would prefer to keep using it.  thanks.
[04:55] <Out_Cold> SetiAmon, nonfree just means it does not follow the ubuntu code of open source, there for not included by default
[04:55] <SetiAmon> oh
[04:55] <SetiAmon> thanks
[04:55] <cmmenke> where is the terminal in the launch application?
[04:55] <Quan-Time> bioshock + wine (steam).. anyone got experience with it ? i cant get it working.. but its rated as gold, and no comments on it.
[04:55] <rumpsy> Quan-Time: goto accessories
[04:56] <dabukalam> cmmenke, if you mean the app menu, it's in accessories...
[04:56] <Out_Cold> SetiAmon, like mp3's are not open source, there for you need to enable on a default machine..
[04:56] <SetiAmon> Hmm since i set up dual monitors (twinview) when i hit f12 it maximizes on my second screen(which is a 40 inch tv behind me) is there a way to get it to open up here on my small monitor(already selected as primary)
[04:56] <Quan-Time> rumpsy: yer.. and ?
[04:56] <Diverdude> Is it possible to get a huge clock like this: http://www.elegantpie.com/hugeclock.html  in ubuntu ?
[04:57] <rumpsy> Quan-Time: you can also do like this, press alt+F2, then typein gnome-terminal
[04:58] <dabukalam> Diverdude, there's a cool mod site at http://www.gnome-look.org - check out the screensavers over there, I'm sure you'll find something suitable
[04:58] <rumpsy> default terminal is in , press alt+F2 goto accessories and choose terminal
[04:58] <rumpsy> default terminal is in , press alt+F1 goto accessories and choose terminal
[04:58] <Quan-Time> yup.. i know term..
[04:58] <rumpsy> ^^
[04:58] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, Quan-Time you can also do ctrl + alt + f1-f7 to get different ttys and switch back and forth
[04:58] <rumpsy> Quan-Time: what you want then?
[04:58] <Quan-Time> wait.. i asked about bioshock + WINE...
[04:59] <rumpsy> ah
[04:59] <jazz> ive googled  my problem and nothing was for me everything was intrepid or laptops
[04:59] <jazz> i use a desktop hp and  only after a fresh install of the os has this been happening
[05:00] <rumpsy> jazz: what was your problem?
[05:00] <cmmenke> i went to download something, and sais it requires an app. to load, and im looking terminal, where is that in the browser?
[05:00] <jazz> regardless of listening to music or not the volume just lowers or mutes
[05:01] <jazz> sometimes gradually other times way fast to mute

[05:04] <cmmenke> i had to use apturl
[05:04] <cmmenke> whatever that is
[05:04] <zilkomaa> ghthor, no i hasnt ill try it
[05:04] <rumpsy> cmmenke: if you want to know about your system, goto system option ans look for about ubuntu
[05:05] <rumpsy> jazz, can you see volume icon on your panel? just right click and goto preference and select PCM in that
[05:05] <ghthor> zilkomaa, if that doesn't work paste your "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" to http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste the url in here that is returns
[05:05] <Diverdude> dabukalam, it seems there is nothing on that side to be used as a desktop clock
[05:06] <jazz> yes  im looking for pcm.... i did right click after i asked how ,,, :)
[05:06] <dabukalam> Diverdude, you want a clock on your desktop, or a clock in your screensaver?
[05:06] <zilkomaa> ghthor, ok ill try that previous one now thanks! brb
[05:06] <rumpsy> jazz: CAn you see PCM in that listed window, select that
[05:06] <cmmenke> does handbrake work for linux?
[05:07] <dabukalam> cmmenke, yup
[05:07] <dabukalam> !handbrake | cmmenke
[05:07] <cmmenke> 32 bit also?
[05:07] <rumpsy> handbrake?
[05:07] <cmmenke> or only 64
[05:07] <dabukalam> rumpsy, it's a DVD-ripping tool
[05:07] <rumpsy> oh
[05:07] <rumpsy> :)
[05:07] <jazz> only internal audio and bt878 aidio capture
[05:07] <cmmenke> it encodes also :)
[05:07] <Diverdude> dabukalam, sorry in the screensaver...basically i just want my computer to be able to show me the time in huge font
[05:07] <jazz> ubder hard ware
[05:07] <cmmenke> thanks guys
[05:08] <cmmenke> any really good ripping software? for entire cd rips, about the same as dvddecrypter
[05:08] <dabukalam> Diverdude, okay, just get a desktop widget and increase it's size to like 500%
[05:09] <rumpsy> Jazz: below to that hardware there will be some lists, in that choose PCM
[05:09] <Billiard> cmmenke: dvdbackup probably does just as good a job as dvddecryptor
[05:10] <Diverdude> dabukalam, but can i activate a desktop widget on a keystroke?
[05:10] <jazz> i found the list no pcm tohugh
[05:10] <rumpsy> Jazz: in that list you will be see something like this, MAster, PCM, Front, Front Mic, Lne-in............ and so and so , in that list choose PCM
[05:11] <tapan> hello , i am trying to install openldap on karmic

[05:13] <jazz> no alsa mixer

[05:29] <David664> ?
[05:29] <jazz> except 9.10 wasnt problematic till i reinstalled it
[05:30] <rumpsy> jazz, do onething after right click choose "open volume control"
[05:30] <Explore2> rumpsy: do you mean my server is slow or ubuntu server?
[05:30] <zilkomaa> ghthor, ok he how can i save that grub.cfg it doesnt allow me to whats the magic words read only..
[05:30] <scunizi> David664: check wine's site for your programs compatibility .. wine is not a windows substitute
[05:30] <rumpsy> Explore2: do this , apt-get install netselect-apt
[05:31] <David664> o i thought it worked on all of them :)
[05:31] <jazz> i right click i have mute and prefrences
[05:31] <Out_Cold> scunizi, wine is Not an emulator :p
[05:31] <rumpsy> jazz: after that choose edit in that window and goto preference
[05:31] <rumpsy> priya: What happened ?
[05:31] <zilkomaa> ahthor, to get write access to that file..
[05:31] <scunizi> Out_Cold: yep.. or a "substitute" :)
[05:32] <zilkomaa> ahthor, chmod something..??
[05:32] <priya> rumpsy, this is what i got  back in terminal desktop@DESKTOP:~/Desktop/RQC$ chmod +x rq-echo-client.x86
[05:32] <priya> desktop@DESKTOP:~/Desktop/RQC$
[05:32] <Myke1> can you use Virtualbox to install windows to play windows games?
[05:32] <Out_Cold> Myke1, slow but possible
[05:32] <priya> ls
[05:33] <scunizi> Myke1: some games not all.. depends on how graphicly intensive they are. do they need 3d etc..
[05:33] <rumpsy> priya, what kind of file is that, still i don't understand
[05:34] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, maybe i can add to priya's issue. she/he has a script which it the rq-echo-client.x86 which checks locally in the same folder for a .conf file, she is trying to call the script withoput having to cd to the folder in question
[05:35] <priya> right on and im a he  lol
[05:35] <rumpsy> priya, after chmod +x go to that folder and double click that chmoded file to execute
[05:35] <rumpsy> so, you are shemale right, lol
[05:35] <lifestream> {QUESTION}  -  Hmm, hello everyone, just a simple question about backup, I guess: when a backup is done, does it backup every single file again, or just those that have *changed* from the last backup?
[05:36] <Out_Cold> problem is, sym-linking it to /bin/ forces an error and also editing the $PATH which I may or may not have correctly assisted in
[05:36] <wzssyqa> i want to share some file with ftp,is there a simple ftp server?
[05:36] <priya> u lost me on the command
[05:36] <Out_Cold> lifestream, depends on the application used.. some do both
[05:36] <scunizi> wzssyqa: one.ubuntu.com.. online and shareable
[05:36] <Out_Cold> wzssyqa, proftpd is great
[05:37] <jazz> under settings for selected device  all i get are a bunch of analog 5.1 to 7.1 device input and digital stereo inuts
[05:37] <wzssyqa> Out_Cold: is there one that just a command?
[05:37] <jazz> inputs^
[05:37] <zilkomaa> ghthor, ill try that now..
[05:37] <rumpsy> Out_Cold: could you understand what kind of query priya(he/she) asked? , but i'm not
[05:37] <wzssyqa> just like python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080
[05:38] <lifestream> Out_Cold, both, huh? Hmm.. I'm looking online at different backup apps, really difficult to see which ones do it :P
[05:38] <Out_Cold> wzssyqa, not sure what you mean
[05:38] <rumpsy> Anyway, brb
[05:38] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, he wants to run this script every boot up/log in.. so far my attempts to assist have been futile
[05:38] <ghthor> zilkomaa, were you able to boot into windows?
[05:38] <jazz> vev um restarting mabe that will cottect
[05:39] <jazz> correwct
[05:39] <Abnix> anyone here have a good xorg config for use on a 7 inch screen?
[05:39] <wzssyqa> Out_Cold: the simplest ftp server
[05:39] <jazz>  cant type in the dark  lol
[05:39] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, as easily as possible. ie: not by cd ..... ./file
[05:39] <wzssyqa> Out_Cold: and not a deman
[05:39] <Out_Cold> wzssyqa, proftpd is easy to set up and easy to add users but it has a gui frontend
[05:40] <wzssyqa> Out_Cold: i want just like this python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 to get a http server
[05:40] <Out_Cold> jazz, my typing gets worse dependoing on the light
[05:40] <zetheroo> I lost this info ... whats the PPA for the best and latest nvidia drivers?
[05:40] <Out_Cold> wzssyqa, use firefox for that?

[05:43] <tr1sth3t> Out_Cold, explain. In my software sources under the Ubuntu Software tab is shows server for the US and main server. I set it to main server but it's still the same.

[05:44] <Out_Cold> tr1sth3t, set it to something close to you... the main has a lot of load

[05:45] <EastDallas> tapan: user password?
[05:45] <Out_Cold> wzssyqa, then tarballing or ftp is the way to go. if you want to send to them, they need the server, if you want them to take from you, then you need the server
[05:45] <cmmenke> there is another synaptic running in non-interactive mode :(

[05:45] <tapan> yes
[05:45] <cmmenke> where is it?
[05:46] <wzssyqa> Out_Cold: i know,but i don't want to use vsftpd etc,they are to big

[05:54] <Oasa> Can any one please tell me why they quit pidgin and moved on to empathy ?
[05:54] <ghthor> zilkomaa, ahh, wait those aren't the right lines, need  "set root=(hd0,1)", "chainloader (hd0,1)+1"
[05:54] <blakkheim> Oasa: angry teenagers who wanted webcam chat
[05:54] <zilkomaa> ghthor, eheh okoko
[05:54] <Out_Cold> Oasa, cuz they are lame
[05:55] <Oasa> Pidgin now supports webcam chat.
[05:55] <blakkheim> Oasa: it didn't when they switched
[05:55] <rumpsy> Explore2: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/netselect-apt, check it here
[05:55] <Out_Cold> so if enough people use pidgin over empathy (which i think is so far the case) they may switch back
[05:55] <priya> good nite all  i wont give up that  easy  i will be back  lol
[05:55] <Oasa> I like pidgin.
[05:56] <Out_Cold> we'll be here priya rest easy
[05:56] <jazz> i rebooted i just realized i dont even get the ubuntu drums  just the drums for login not the lil beat as the animation dances
[05:56] <priya> thanks
[05:56] <rumpsy> lol
[05:56] <jazz> screw! a hammer will fix it later!
[05:56] <Coded1> im thinking of purchasing a new rig in a few months and want to get something in the mid-high end that plays nice with linux, it's been a while and I'm hearing great things about amd cpus but not so much with ati gpu's + linux and also that amd mother boards don't play very well with nvidia. what kind of rigs do you guys run, where can I go for further info?
[05:56] <blakkheim> Coded1: avoid ati
[05:57] <blakkheim> Coded1: just build it yourself
[05:57] <zilkomaa> ghthor, ok changed..
[05:57] <Out_Cold> Coded1, ati works great in laptops but not towers.. and nvidia always has driver issues that are difficult to fix
[05:57] <zilkomaa> ghthor, restarting now..
[05:57] <ghthor> zilkomaa, kk
[05:58] <Coded1> blakkheim, that I know (previous 9800 owner) and I will be building it myself, been checking around on newegg.com but scared if I get an AMD mb chipset im gonna paint myself into a corner, are there mobos that are friendly to both amd/nvidia?
[05:58] <scunizi> Out_Cold: I've never found that with nvidia.. lately the newer cards might have issues because the driver available in ubuntu is pretty far behind the power curve
[05:58] <blakkheim> Coded1: not sure, i'm an intel guy
[05:59] <Coded1> AMD prices are almost too sweet to let go
[05:59] <Out_Cold> scunizi, i've seen a fair bit of issues especially with overscanning and new drivers failing to support old cards..
[05:59] <Oasa> ia m an intel guy too
[05:59] <Xcell> i use asus / amd / nvidia / 0 problems.
[06:00] <scunizi> Out_Cold: new drivers and old cards don't mix well.. that's why there are 3 primary drivers for nvidia cards.. New .. Old.. and Older
[06:00] <rumpsy> But you hate those things when you have single cpu
[06:00] <Explore2> when do i get this err? ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: No route to host
[06:00] <Explore2> lost connection
[06:00] <Out_Cold> scunizi, agreed but try telling that to the auto-updater
[06:01] <Out_Cold> Explore2, firewall
[06:01] <wiggmpk> I just installed Karmic Koala on my notebook, currently running kernel 2.6.31-17 amd64. Every time I try to suspend my notebook, it cuts to a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have to manually power it off every time. Please help!!
[06:01] <Coded1> Explore2, check to see if you have an ip address on that card
[06:01] <scunizi> Out_Cold: yep.. I never use the auto updater.. in fact I use the drivers from nvidia's site.. I just plan on reinstalling them on a kernel upgrade
[06:01] <Explore2> How?
[06:02] <scunizi> wiggmpk: your swap should be apx 2x of your ram for suspend to work
[06:02] <Out_Cold> scunizi, but that's where i see the issues with users.... that and overscan is one hellova ***
[06:02] <rumpsy> But i donno how you guys do support for non-free drivers , o_O
[06:02] <rumpsy> i mean nvidia-glx
[06:02] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, we don
[06:02] <Out_Cold> t
[06:02] <wiggmpk> scunizi: 4 GB Physical RAM & 12 GB SWAP, not the issue :)
[06:03] <ghthor> zilkomaa, still no luck?
[06:03] <Out_Cold> rumpsy, nvidia issues for nvidia devs
[06:03] <zilkomaa> ghthor, argh now there is two windows xp boot sections in grub other one says again error: no such partition and other one loads back to grub like i said before :(
[06:03] <rumpsy> Everyday, someone asking about 3d drivers, why don't they use default drivers for stability
[06:04] <Coded1> guess you have to pick the lesser of the evils with gpu's intel just sucks, amd is great value but doesn't work on nix, nvidia offers a lot more but is closed
[06:04] <jazz> work with creative soundblaster cards? if  i have to use my sound card then fine because this is driving me nuts!
[06:04] <rileyp> hi all
[06:04] <jazz> does linux ybuntu 9.10 ^
[06:04] <rileyp> Can I get some help here with suspend
[06:04] <mihamina> rileyp: yep
[06:04] <rumpsy> i choosed to use nv driver as my default driver
[06:04] <rileyp> and karmic
[06:04] <scunizi> wiggmpk: suspend and hibernate don't share a unified method of programming and can be very different from one machine to the next.. I'd search the forums for your laptop model to see what others have experienced and possible solutions
[06:04] <Oasa> rileyp : Dont ask to ask. Just ask
[06:05] <zilkomaa> ghthor, should i reinstall grub or something..
[06:05] <rileyp> its a desktop and i have searched the forums for 3 days
[06:05] <rileyp> to no avail
[06:05] <rumpsy> I know the power of default video drivers
[06:05] <EastDallas> jazz: I have on old SB Audigy Platinum in my desktop, works like a charm.
[06:05] <Oasa> rileyp : YOur problem please
[06:05] <wiggmpk> scunizi: I have tried, also googled.. Looks like suspend/hibernate is a known issue with 9.10 and bug reports are filed.. Just taking a shot in the dark in the channel
[06:05] <wiggmpk> scunizi: you think a swap partition across a software raid would cause an issue with suspending
[06:06] <Oasa> wiggmpk : No
[06:06] <Myke1> I have NO idea why hardware manufacturers make closed sourced drivers :(
[06:06] <Oasa> lol Myke1
[06:06] <scunizi> wiggmpk: that's a wrinkle .. maybe
[06:06] <Myke1> they dont make money on the drivers, they make money on the hardware
[06:06] <rileyp> ok upon suspend screen freezes and keyboard no reponsive as well as mouse system is frozen
[06:06] <rumpsy> JAzz, if you are using soundblaster card, modprobe appropriate driver
[06:06] <wiggmpk> Oasa: no what?
[06:06] <Out_Cold> Myke1, to be better than the others... or at least different
[06:07] <wiggmpk> scunizi: doesnt seem like it would be an issue, it wasnt before
[06:07] <Oasa> wiggmpk: It wont cauase trouble.
[06:07] <rileyp> the  suspend log log looks fine though
[06:07] <ghthor> zilkomaa, well I don't know then, to remove the second entry just remove it from /etc/grub.d/40_custom.  Maybe you should just try reinstalling grub with "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"
[06:07] <wiggmpk> Oasa: any thoughts on why suspend is borked?
[06:07] <Coded1> Myke1, but if someone figures out a better way to do it they might feel bad
[06:07] <scunizi> wiggmpk: I'm not familure enough with raid to know
[06:07] <Coded1> wont anyone think of the corporations!
[06:07] <tony__>  anyone know where exactly in firefox it calls to the OS (linux specifically) to use a certain widget? reason being my widgets are messed up in kde 4.4 using firefox portable
[06:07] <zilkomaa> ghthor, ok thanks u anyway
[06:07] <rfgergrthnre> wiggmpk, suspend with ubuntu has a long history of being broken
[06:07] <jazz> man im so angry right now, first cairo  goes down making my updates crazy and i did a clean install of ubuntu reinstall all my stuff, and now sound give me trouble.
[06:07] <Oasa> wiggmpk : No idea. As you have said, Its a popular bug. Hope they fix it in Lynx.
[06:07] <rfgergrthnre> jazz, probably pulseaudio's fault
[06:07] <wiggmpk> Oasa: so do I
[06:08] <rileyp> I know its a common prob but i would liketo get on top of
[06:08] <Myke1> Well, its just a driver. They can concentrate on making the hardware and make drivers open sourced so that everyone who can make them better. no harm no foul
[06:08] <wiggmpk> rfgergrthnre: right, I remember.. However this is usually referred to as a regression.. suspend/hibernate should be a no brainer these days
[06:08] <Myke1> just my 2 cents
[06:09] <jazz> ok lets find puse audio? would i have installed it inadvertently?
[06:09] <rileyp> im using <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:09] <Out_Cold> 2 cents compared to millions :p
[06:09] <rileyp> i will not upgrade kerel as i have doen in the past to no benefit other that ata read errors and randon sysmen freezes
[06:10] <rileyp> it doe snot fix suspend
[06:10] <EastDallas> tony__: That might be a question for #kubuntu or #firefox
[06:10] <albert> hello
[06:10] <Oasa> rileyp : Then what can you do ?
[06:10] <rileyp> hi bert
[06:11] <rileyp> Im asking!
[06:11] <Coded1> what do you guys think about ddr3 and tripple channel ram?
[06:11] <Coded1> just hype?
[06:11] <Myke1> Well, is it easy to dual boot Windows Xp and Ubuntu 9.10?
[06:11] <rfgergrthnre> wiggmpk, yep, it is regression... i dunno why, but things in ubuntu don't seem to stay in they work... look at x and audio... they were working fine in previous releases, but then they had to go and rewrite them and introduce lame bugs
[06:11] <Bailey> hi i have a question with my ubuntu
[06:11] <albert> On macOS terminal I can do "say hello" and my speakers say: hello. Can i do the same with Linux?
[06:11] <jazz> the players  i have now were the players i had before. and i dont have pulse audio
[06:12] <bastid_raZor> albert: espeak
[06:12] <Bailey> my programs are not working
[06:12] <albert> bastid_raZor: is espaeak a program?
[06:12] <Bailey> but they are supported with the new ubuntu
[06:12] <wiggmpk> rfgergrthnre: well they did integrate PulseAudio.. which is beautiful if they would of just integrated it properly.
[06:12] <rileyp> also when using mythbuntu my surround sound makes a d large crack sound everytime i open and close live tv or movie
[06:13] <rfgergrthnre> wiggmpk, heh, dont talk to me about pulseaudio... it's just really that bad
[06:13] <bastid_raZor> albert: it is a command line app.. it should be installed by default.
[06:13] <Oasa> bastid_raZor : I dont get espeak.
[06:13] <wiggmpk> rfgergrthnre: based upon what though? your experience with Ubuntu? other distro's havent had most of the problems with PulseAudio
[06:13] <bastid_raZor> !info espeak
[06:13] <rfgergrthnre> wiggmpk, volume resetting and randomly muting, a whole second of sound lag from all apps, unable to play audio from two apps at once... urgh
[06:14] <Oasa> bastid_raZor : I am getting this error
[06:14] <Oasa> PaHost_OpenStream: could not open /dev/dsp for O_WRONLY
[06:14] <Explore2> Hi all, i installed x264 and gstreamer packages from apt-get on 9.10, i still get no element"x264", any idea?
[06:14] <Oasa> PaHost_OpenStream: ERROR - result = -10000
[06:14] <wiggmpk> rfgergrthnre: anyway, I am gabbing in a support channel lol.. later
[06:14] <rfgergrthnre> wiggmpk, which is the chat channel?
[06:14] <albert> bastid_raZor: thats true! thank you very much :)))
[06:14] <jazz> alright how do i find what my intergrated audio card is? im filing a bug report  has to be
[06:15] <wiggmpk> rfgergrthnre: eh...??? #ubuntu-offtopic i suppose
[06:15] <rumpsy> Jazz: check that in lspci command
[06:15] <albert> bastid_raZor: do you know if i can do the same but wirtting a command 'say' ?
[06:15] <tazbo> I used to have a script set up so I could right click a file or batch of files and resize them.. I still have the script but I forgot how I set it up... anyone suggest a site that has the info?
[06:15] <jazz> i dont know what that is,
[06:16] <Oasa> rename the program as say :S
[06:16] <albert> how can I change the word to 'say'?
[06:16] <albert> rename how?
[06:16] <wm_> how do i make my wireless intel nic work in karmic?
[06:16] <EastDallas> rileyp: I had the same problem.  It has to do with power_save...looking for the fix....
[06:16] <bastid_raZor> albert: alias say=espeak
[06:16] <Coded1> albert, "alias say=espeak'
[06:16] <rumpsy> albert, give a text file to it
[06:16] <rileyp> so my suspend issue is ther any setting in the /init.d/  folder i can try that might stop teh crashing upon suspned
[06:17] <albert> ok thanks you Coded1 bastid_raZor
[06:17] <albert> but my computer will remember this alias?
[06:17] <albert> when I restart my computer it will remember the alias?
[06:17] <bastid_raZor> albert: you could add it to your .bashrc file
[06:18] <albert> where's this file?
[06:18] <rww> albert: in your home folder
[06:18] <rileyp> its hidden
[06:18] <rww> albert: nano ~/.bashrc

[06:23] <Guest75386> anyone use bt4 final
[06:23] <albert> bastid_raZor: then only i have to add 'alias say=espeak' on the last line of this file?
[06:23] <Oasa> yes aldbert.
[06:24] <wm_> why does the iwl driver suck so much ?
[06:24] <Oasa> add it anywhere.
[06:24] <albert> okey thanks you very much
[06:25] <Oasa> albert : There should many aliases already, such as ll = ll -s . look at the syntax and rewrite
[06:25] <lolnic_> Hi, how do i change the program gdm uses to hibernate? if i can, that is
[06:25] <albert> i did a question because i'm reading some examples in the same file like: alias ls=ls --color=auto'

[06:56] <Quan-Time> sometimes 2 younoob videos screws it..i put it down to flash problems..
[06:57] <ruffus910> it just all of a sudden stopped working :-)
[06:57] <ruffus910> i downloaded some limewire songs, then it broke
[06:57] <ruffus910> could that be it?
[06:57] <Quan-Time> quite possibly.. what media player ?
[06:58] <Quan-Time> maybe try to kill anything thats relating to it
[06:58] <ruffus910> vlc
[06:59] <ruffus910> Quan-Time: fixed. thank you
[06:59] <Quan-Time> ruffus910: yer. same.. umm.. as much as everyone says "you never have to reboot linux".. you owuld be surprised how many things it can fix..
[06:59] <Quan-Time> ruffus910: np.. glad it worked !
[06:59] <ruffus910> :-)
[06:59] <Quan-Time> now fix my wine issue !
[07:00] <ruffus910> maybe, whats the problem
[07:03] <bullgard> What is the filename of the source code file of the ALSA driver /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko? What DEB program package does it include?
[07:03] <Quan-Time> ruffus910: bioshock (steam) on wine.. isntalled it fine.. went to play, installed dx10, and now it only loads the splash screen.. wine config i already use ALSA drivers, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17740
[07:03] <firestrider> hey is there an equivalent to resource monitor, event viewer, device manager, and registry in ubuntu
[07:03] <Quan-Time> that link says to mess around with alsa, BUT i dont have that dhirectory to begin with... no sure what action to take.. as everyone says it just works.. :(
[07:04] <bullgard> firestrider: About registry: Have a look at gconf.
[07:04] <ruffus910> Quan-Time: ah. sorry. i got nothing
[07:05] <przemo_one> never mind. loading mozilla daily
[07:05] <bullgard> firestrider: Ubuntu's device manager is udev.
[07:05] <Quan-Time> ruffus910: heh. no one does :( its annoying
[07:05] <firestrider> ok thanks bullgard
[07:05] <rww> Hi. I don't use my Caps Lock key and want it to map to Escape instead. How do I do that?
[07:06] <Quan-Time> rww: wow.. umm. macro maybe
[07:06] <Differentkindof> I had a question with regards to porting to arm
[07:06] <bullgard> firestrider: What do you mean by "resource monitor"?
[07:07] <przemo_one> aperantly 3.6 is an update for 3.5 /// never mind :)
[07:08] <firestrider> resource monitor program in windows vista and 7
[07:08] <jobbie> hello all
[07:08] <bullgard> rww: Try http://www.columbia.edu/~djv/docs/keyremap.html
[07:08] <jobbie> so my system has 2 drives, one for / and one for /home
[07:08] <firestrider> it's like task manager but shows much more details
[07:08] <jobbie> the drive with my home partition is failing and i'd like to replace it with another drive
[07:09] <bullgard> firestrider: I did not ask you where "resource monitor" is but what it is.
[07:09] <firestrider> and you can drill down by process to see it's disk io, network io, and memory faults
[07:10] <jobbie> whats the best way to swap drives ... with my /home on the new drive of course.
[07:10] <bullgard> firestrider: This is a busy channel. If you talk to me, please prepend your message with my nick.
[07:11] <firestrider> bullgard, it's like task manager but more detailed and granular
[07:14] <firestrider> bullgard also does ubuntu prefetch ram for applications?
[07:14] <Quan-Time> hey, trying to get bioshock (steam ver) workin on WINE 1.1.36 - ubuntu karmic 9.10 x64, i looked here http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17740 and i have the problem of only getting a splash screen.. I also use ALSA for sound, so the suggestion isnt relevant to me.. anyone with idheas ?
[07:14] <panfist> is there something similar to rdiff-backup that's supported by ubuntu?
[07:15] <bullgard> firestrider: For an equivalent to resource monitor in Ubuntu, click System > Administration > System monitor.
[07:16] <bullgard> firestrider: Yes, In some cases Ubuntu does prefetch RAM for applications.
[07:20] <mishi> momma
[07:20] <brand0n> anyone have any idea why sometimes when i login the screen goes white
[07:20] <brand0n> and all i can see is the cursor
[07:20] <brand0n> usually only happens if my girlfriend logs in first
[07:21] <ranjan> hello very body is here any body who knows how to write in hindi
[07:21] <rumpsy> Ask your girlfriend what she did before you login
[07:21] <brand0n> she doesnt do anything
[07:22] <brand0n> like when i reboot i log us both in
[07:22] <rumpsy> ranjan:What you exactly need
[07:22] <brand0n> sometimes i log her in first
[07:22] <brand0n> and thats when it happens on my side, if i log her in first
[07:22] <jlauxetta> I sometimes log my girlfriend in too :D
[07:23] <c2d2> I wish to completely purge/remove/uninstall flash.
[07:23] <rumpsy> Avoid using more stuffs in desktop, use automatic screen resolution
[07:23] <c2d2> It is broken and I whish to repair it.  Suggestions?
[07:24] <ranjan> rumpsy : i am trying to write some contain in hindi but i am facing problem in writing words which includes half cracters  in devnagri script
[07:25] <rumpsy> brand0n: yes, don't put bunch of files and folders on desktop... clean it if you have, put those in documents or somewhere else
[07:25] <brand0n> i have 3 folders and 2 shortcuts
[07:25] <brand0n> on my desktop
[07:25] <brand0n> hers has like 5 folders and 4 shortcuts
[07:25] <brand0n> hardly a bunch
[07:26] <rumpsy> ranjan: goto accessories and use character map tool
[07:26] <bullgard> brand0n: Your computer's configuration is at fault. You need to provide error messages in order that a knowledgeable person can suggest a remedy. I believe that you should obtain the help of local knowledgeable friend.
[07:26] <MiBo> brand0n: Ive had the same problem
[07:27] <brand0n> i get no error messages when it happens bullgard, the screen just turns white and all i can see is my cursor
[07:27] <brand0n> i press shift + ctrl + f1 to go to shell
[07:27] <brand0n> and then reboot
[07:27] <brand0n> and it usually fixes it
[07:27] <brand0n> sometimes it does it twice in a row
[07:27] <FloodBot1> brand0n: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:27] <brand0n> oh god
[07:27] <brand0n> sorry floodbot1, didnt mean to fill the channel with questions about ubuntu
[07:27] <bullgard> brand0n: I believe you. But the computer certainly will throw error messages in the /var/log/ directory.
[07:28] <brand0n> ok bullgard ill see what i can dig up, thank you
[07:28] <brand0n> which log file would it be in bullgard
[07:28] <brand0n> the xorg one?
[07:28] <MiBo> brand0n: I think it's a gdm problem
[07:28] <brand0n> did you ever fix it mibo? or do you just try to deal with it
[07:29] <cmmenke> im using vobcopy, and the i ripped "vobcopy -i -m /dir/dir
[07:29] <cmmenke> and it is literally taking a small century

[07:30] <zilkomaa> Can someone help me whats the problem, trying to boot windows xp from grub after pressing enter there comes a screen only reading GRUB_ blinking?
[07:30] <bullgard> brand0n: I do not know exactly because you did not describe your situation exactly. Try first the file /var/log/messages and look up the time when you got the white screen.
[07:30] <brand0n> also sound randomly goes out in flash, anyone ever deal with that problem?
[07:30] <cmmenke> no one knows?

[07:48] <wenko> Hey folks
[07:49] <wenko> anyone familair with this: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[07:49] <wenko> libssl0.9.8 seems to be the culprit
[07:49] <rumpsy> RaiN88: Just tell us errors you see in /var/logs
[07:49] <rumpsy> somebody may help you
[07:50] <RaiN88> How would I know?
[07:51] <mkquist__> !beginner
[07:51] <zilkomaa> can some1 tell me whats the problem trying to boot from grub to windows xp not giving any error messages only comes screen where reads GRUB_ ?
[07:51] <mkquist__> !new
[07:51] <zilkomaa> Cant find any solution from web either..
[07:51] <rumpsy> RaiN88: ^^
[07:52] <RaiN88> How would I know? :(
[07:52] <wenko> anyone familair with this: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[07:52] <BinaryMan> I know its late so a lot of people are idling. however, would anyone still alive have any guesses why the cryptroot file stored in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d suddenly disappear?
[07:53] <RaiN88> How will I see errors in /var/logs?
[07:53] <Myrtti> RaiN88: you could try to boot to the recovery mode
[07:53] <BinaryMan> alongside that, why would cryptsetup suddenly have a problem with the libgpg-error.so.0 library, causing the user to reinstall the libgpg-error package
[07:54] <BinaryMan> this is a problem i had about a week ago that i ended up solving, but never found out why everything regarding cryptsetup commited suicide on me.
[07:54] <rumpsy> RaiN88: each and every error will be logged in /var/logs so open it and check it
[07:55] <mkquist__> RaiN88: relax, it can be figured out, but not like what you are doing...  take your time and analyze...  but most of all relax.. geeze.  Usually its something simple, but it takes some problem solving.  Getting wound up wont solve anything
[07:55] <RaiN88> What if we'll use remote desktop?
[07:55] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: what is the problem you're having?
[07:56] <RaiN88> It wont restart, It stuck in black screen
[07:57] <BinaryMan> define it. One of your machines?
[07:57] <RaiN88> Myrtt: then what will I do?
[07:57] <Myrtti> RaiN88: check /var/logs
[07:57] <mkquist__> looking back, I'm guessing that, for whatever reason, grub is looking at the wrong place, so start there.  assuming you go ubuntu to install
[07:57] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: I'm willing to help you with your problem. you have to answer my questions though.
[07:57] <rumpsy> RaiN88: Explain clearly, what happen , what you did...
[07:57] <mkquist__> RaiN88: listen to BinaryMan
[07:58] <RaiN88> Okay
[07:58] <mkquist__> RaiN88: or rumpsy
[07:58] <BinaryMan> and /var/logs does not exist. what i believe Myrtti is referring to is a folder called /var/log, which holds logs about a variety of different services.
[07:58] <BinaryMan> once you can tell me more about your problem, i'll have a better idea of which log to look at.
[07:58] <RaiN88> I see a lot of logs here
[07:58] <BinaryMan> which will more than liketly tell us more information that can be used to diagnose your problem.
[07:58] <pehden> its pissing me off
[07:59] <brand0n> how do i assign sounds to actions? the sound gui in preferences only lets me select themes
[07:59] <pehden> does any one here know how to configure vhost in apache
[07:59] <brand0n> or do i gotta assign each action manually?
[07:59] <RaiN88> When I restart it process then stuck in black screen, then nothing happens ..
[07:59] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: That's normal. is your only problem centered around rebooting?
[07:59] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: or are you having problems booting into your system as well?
[08:00] <RaiN88> maybe..
[08:00] <pehden> apache room says must regiter i register and it still wont let me in
[08:00] <rumpsy> rain88: there is another option to check system log, goto system, and then to administration and choose system log
[08:00]  * BinaryMan sighs
[08:00] <RaiN88> Okay rumpsy
[08:00] <BinaryMan> I can't help the guy if he won't give more information.
[08:01] <Myrtti> pehden: you've registered, and identified?f
[08:01] <Myke1> Hey I have a Question about Dual booting... If I have Windows Xp and Ubuntu 9.10 installed, If I upgrade 9.10 to  10.04 when it comes out, will that affect the Grub Bootloader?
[08:02] <pehden> im running apache2 its server 2 virtual host but one of the vhost its showing the wrong directory as the output
[08:02] <Pici> pehden: You need to verify  your account by checking the email that you used when you registered.
[08:02] <pehden> identify how
[08:02] <pehden> ok
[08:02] <BinaryMan> Myke1: I can't say for sure, but I'm going to imagine that current bootloader entries will be preserved when upgrading.
[08:02] <dopple> could someone assist.. i downloaded a winxp iso and burned it but its not bootable.. how can i make a bootable USB drive from ubuntu that i can boot from to install windows as a dualboot
[08:03] <RaiN88> I didn't see the system log, only system testing and system monitor
[08:03] <Myke1> I was thinking it would be ok too, it would just give me the choice of 10.04 instead of 9.10 after upgrading
[08:03] <pehden> ok i did that irc thing how do i login
[08:04] <BinaryMan> dopple: if you're inside ubuntu right now, system -> administration -> USB startup disk creator.
[08:04] <Myrtti> pehden: /msg nickserv identify <password>
[08:04] <BinaryMan> pehden: assuming you've registered your nick
[08:04] <RaiN88> BinaryMan what will I do? :(
[08:05] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: you need to listen to us and give us clear responses.
[08:05] <BinaryMan> I can't help you if you don't answer the questions I ask you.
[08:05] <RaiN88> Okay
[08:05] <RaiN88> I will
[08:05] <BinaryMan> Let's try this again.
[08:05] <dopple> BinaryMan: but will booting from the disk that that creates allow me to install windows from this apparently-unbootable cd i burned?
[08:06] <BinaryMan> dopple: shouldn't have downloaded a windows iso off the internet. :P
[08:06] <RaiN88> Okay BinaryMan
[08:06] <RaiN88> I will
[08:06] <RaiN88> Just tell me what to do?
[08:06] <dopple> BinaryMan:  :P
[08:06] <pehden> how do i know i am in the room
[08:06] <pehden> of apache
[08:06] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: You said that when you reboot, you have a black screen and your computer sits there. is that your only problem.
[08:06] <RaiN88> Yeah
[08:06] <BinaryMan> alright
[08:07] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: do you have any problems booting into your system?
[08:07] <RaiN88> Dont have
[08:07] <pehden> wait i think i found that part out
[08:07] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: Are you booted into your system right now?
[08:07] <pehden> pici:thanks
[08:07] <RaiN88> Yes
[08:07] <pehden> binaryman:thanks
[08:07] <RaiN88> I have two OS
[08:08] <RaiN88> XP and Ubuntu
[08:08] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: Alright. That shouldn't be a problem.
[08:08] <BinaryMan> RaiN88: Go to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal.
[08:08] <RaiN88> Okay
[08:08] <RaiN88> I am here
[08:08] <pehden> any one here?
[08:08] <james__> nope.

[08:09] <pehden> do it in apache its kind of funny
[08:09] <rumpsy> pehden: is also a bot kind

[08:11] <BinaryMan> rumpsy: No, I didn't.
[08:11] <BinaryMan> rumpsy: I told him to use "tail /var/log/dmesg"
[08:11] <BinaryMan> typing in the file path will return an error.
[08:11] <RaiN88> yeah
[08:12] <RaiN88> Is it okay that I have two generic and two recovery mode?

[08:15] <RaiN88> Where should I go, First one or the 2nd ?
[08:15] <BinaryMan> tomkat: fyi, it's a problem with the driver. you'll have to manually patch it.
[08:15] <tomkat> binaryman: im new to linux
[08:15] <przemo_one> firestrider if you have one, then it helps, but it's not requaired. works slow on one that does not have.

[08:19] <ardchoille> tentaclemoose: you can try adding bookmarks to ~/.gtk-bookmarks
[08:19] <Eremite> tentaclemoose, right click on your menu (before expanding it) and choose edit menues
[08:19] <ardchoille> tentaclemoose: That's how it's done in the desktop version

[08:20] <iflema>  tentaclemoose open nautilus and drap what you want into the lower left pane....

[08:20] <tentaclemoose> gotcha
[08:20] <Eremite> tentaclemoose, read what I said, Its simple.
[08:20] <firestrider> this is probably a silly question but can you boot ubuntu on a liveusb then do a full install on that same usb drive
[08:20] <ardchoille> Eremite: the menu editor doesn't allow changing the Places menu item
[08:21]  * iflema :)
[08:21] <Eremite> ardchoille, yes it does.  i just did it
[08:21] <tentaclemoose> eremite's method worked
[08:21] <tentaclemoose> perfectly i might add
[08:21] <ardchoille> iflema: that method adds new bookmarks to ~/.gtk-bookmarks.. which is what I suggested
[08:21] <BinaryMan> tomkat: having problems finding the fix for the driver. bear with me
[08:21] <rileyp> when opening vlc or mythtv video or live tv i get loud boom from surround sound
[08:21] <iflema> ardchoille: and
[08:21] <Eremite> rileyp, I get that too.  It sounds like its about to blow my speakers.  New since Karmic.
[08:22] <ardchoille> Eremite: then you need to write us a tutorial because chaning the "Places" menu item via the menu editor isn't possible
[08:22] <firestrider> if not is there a way to get full install of ubuntu on a usb drive from within windows
[08:22] <iflema> ardchoille: that's when there's too many
[08:22] <l2tponlinux> hi everybody
[08:22] <rumpsy> RaiN88: what kernels you see there?
[08:22] <Eremite> ardchoille, how did 2 of us just do it if it doesnt work.  Get real.
[08:22] <tentaclemoose> is there any way to get the central menu of ume to function as a file browser?
[08:22] <rumpsy> RaiN88: choose to one comes with ubuntu 9.10
[08:23] <mobius2> is there a way to turn off or disable the "default web page for this server"  content that  my ubuntu appears to be serving on port 80 of my machine?
[08:23] <przemo_one> Martti my problem is i have installed java 6 bin higher versin then plugin is in repo. so when i try to install plugin i have version mismatch
[08:23] <l2tponlinux> how to connect to a l2tp vpn server? i'm trying to migrate from winxp
[08:23] <mobius2> I do not remember starting a web server
[08:23] <mobius2> XD
[08:23] <rileyp> how do I fix it?
[08:23] <RaiN88> rumpsy
[08:23] <ardchoille> Eremite: Please see my pm
[08:24] <kanzie> what user do you recommend I create new directories in /var/www for website as
[08:24] <RaiN88> where can I see it?
[08:24] <Callum_> Okay, so, my problem: My web server's website is only accessible by direct IP on the network... 1) I have ports 80 and 443 forwarded to my server, 2) I changed my router config page's port so it doesn't use port 80, 3) port 80 is DEFINITELY not blocked, as I connected to my internet IP and got the router's config settings page fine before I changed it's port...but I STILL cannot access my web server, not connecting at all, get a "can't establish connecti
[08:24] <Callum_> on" error...anyone have any idea what the problem is?
[08:24] <EastDallas> mobius2: remove apache
[08:24] <mobius2> apache not installed so not removed
[08:24] <rumpsy> RaiN88: during startup, in the grub menu
[08:24] <RaiN88> wait I will reboot
[08:24] <mobius2> apache2 not installed so not removed
[08:25] <mobius2> lsof shows  nothing about any webserver
[08:25] <EastDallas> mobius2: Well, you obviously have some sort of web server installed, but you don't know which?
[08:25] <przemo_one> is there any wey to clean repos cache and force update from scratch??
[08:25] <RaiN88> Is it okay that I can't restart?
[08:25] <mobius2> no and I am quite surprised
[08:25] <Myke1> How do you change the startup sound in Ubuntu 9.10
[08:26] <mrp> how do i set ufw to log to a seperate file?
[08:26] <mobius2> apparently the problem started with the accidental installation of a program called "webcam"
[08:26] <Eremite> Myke1, right clcik on the sound icon in your task bar, choose preferences
[08:26] <mobius2> that installed it's whole new set of webserver daemons
[08:26] <RaiN88> rumpsy
[08:26] <RaiN88> ?
[08:27] <mobius2> horrible program with busted removes
[08:27] <RaiN88> Is it normal that my system can't restart?
[08:27] <rumpsy> shutdown and start your system again, and in the grub menu choose default kernel to boot
[08:27] <rumpsy> RaiN88: ^^
[08:27] <tomkat> binaryman: no problems, take your time
[08:28] <Myke1> @Eremite it just has sound effects/hardware/input/output and applications

[08:29] <kanzie> how can I change the default eitor of crontab
[08:29] <przemo_one> got it :)
[08:29] <BinaryMan> tomkat: do you have the errors xorg is spitting back at you? i don't have a hard drive in the laptop that has the unichrome video card in ot, so i can't go and check.
[08:29] <glick> hey is there any way i can count pixels on my screen?
[08:29] <BinaryMan> there was something specific that i searched for on google and found a forum post that had a solution.
[08:30] <EastDallas> mobius2: did you install the webcam-server package?
[08:30] <butterycroissant> glick, magnifying glass + pen/paper
[08:30] <Myke1> @Eremite there is just ubuntu, but no way to change it
[08:30] <EastDallas> !info webcam-server
[08:30] <kanzie> How can I change the default editor for crontab cause right now it is something that cant be used by a human
[08:30] <tomkat> BinaryMan: I havent encountered any error messages.
[08:30] <Eremite> glick, In a terminal type:  xdpyinfo  | grep 'dimensions:'
[08:31] <glick> Eremite, heh actually i wanted to count the pixels of a line in my browser
[08:31] <BinaryMan> tomkat: at the command line prompt the livecd drops you into, run the command "startx" without the quotecs.
[08:31] <EastDallas> mobius2: did you install the webcam-server package?
[08:31] <ardchoille> kanzie: run this in a terminal: /usr/bin/select-editor
[08:31] <rumpsy> s/quotecs/quotes
[08:32] <tomkat> binaryman: sudo startx in the terminal?
[08:32] <rileyp>  xdpyinfo  | grep 'dimensions:'            is this for me
[08:32] <BinaryMan> tomkat: yeah
[08:32] <l2tponlinux> ANYONE USING OPENL2TP??
[08:32] <BinaryMan> forgot that you need to run that as sudo
[08:32] <Eremite> glick, take a screenshot and drag the image to gimp.  Measure it.
[08:32] <butterycroissant> glick, you could take a screenshot, crop
[08:32] <butterycroissant> and yeah
[08:32] <rileyp> ahh glick sorry
[08:32] <butterycroissant> what eremite said
[08:32]  * Eremite is a genius.
[08:32] <butterycroissant> it's true
[08:33]  * butterycroissant is a fantastic breakfast treat.
[08:33] <Eremite> I dont disagree.
[08:33] <tomkat> binaryman: hmm. error message. can i paste this into a private message for you to see?
[08:33] <butterycroissant> paste bin it
[08:33] <butterycroissant> *pastebin
[08:33] <ardchoille> Eremite: PM?
[08:33] <tomkat> pastebin?
[08:33] <ardchoille> !paste
[08:33] <butterycroissant> so that the vast collective can debug for you
[08:34] <tomkat> !paste
[08:34] <BinaryMan> tomkat: personally, i like pastey.net

[08:35] <homeboy> hi, how can i make so that when i launch app from menu, it will prompt for a passwork
[08:35] <homeboy> *password
[08:36] <butterycroissant> change the permissions on it
[08:36] <BinaryMan> homeboy: Do you want to run the program as root?
[08:36] <EastDallas> homeboy: is it prompting for the admin password?  Or some other wallet like kdewallet?
[08:36] <homeboy> i want to run it as user,but so it will promp for example root password
[08:37] <tomkat> binaryman: http://www.pastey.net/131885
[08:37]  * EastDallas misread homeboy's question...
[08:37] <BinaryMan> homeboy: append 'gksu -u <user>' to the entry.
[08:38] <BinaryMan> homeboy: for example, gksu -u homeboy nautilus
[08:38] <ardchoille> BinaryMan: he wants to run it as "user" but prompt for roots password.. which I don't quite understand
[08:38] <homeboy> ty, i was playing with that, but didn't know the exact synopsis
[08:38] <BinaryMan> ardchoille: neither do i. gksu is the best thing i an think of
[08:38] <ardchoille> BinaryMan: yeayh
[08:38] <SmartSsa> I also don't think gksu will ask for a password if '-u user' matches the already logged in user.
[08:38] <BinaryMan> tomkat: wow, you don't really have much of a problem.
[08:39] <BinaryMan> tomkat: try hitting ctrl + alt + F7.
[08:39] <Jck_true> Allright so I need to read a file on the shell and strip everything from CCC:START till CCC.END
[08:39] <butterycroissant> wait, what?
[08:40] <tomkat> binaryman: nothing happens
[08:40] <BinaryMan> hrm
[08:40] <rumpsy> Jck_true: try nano
[08:40] <Jck_true> I'm modifying a settings file and I need a shellscript for adding the settings and for removeing them again
[08:40] <BinaryMan> try this then
[08:40] <BinaryMan> press ctrl + alt + F1
[08:40] <Jck_true> Therefor i wrap them in #CCC:START  and #CCC:END
[08:40] <BinaryMan> then sudo rm /tmp/.X0-lock
[08:41] <BinaryMan> and type in sudo startx again
[08:41] <BinaryMan> actually, wait
[08:41] <BinaryMan> before you rm the lock file

[08:41] <user_> Hello , i installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my machine . later i installed Windows 7 (in order to use some graphic software) and now when i start the computer i can see the grub menu , can i restore/fix the Ubuntu boot or i should installed ubuntu from the start ?
[08:41] <BinaryMan> type in ps aux | grep X
[08:42] <pat|nG> do i need to format if i'll change my kde to gnome!?
[08:42] <BinaryMan> user_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[08:42] <SmartSsa> Jck_true, you may want to look at 'sed' for inline text replacement
[08:42] <Jck_true> SmartSsa: I'll have a look
[08:42] <butterycroissant> user_ did you install windows 7 on a different partition?
[08:43] <user_> butterycroissant: yes
[08:43] <butterycroissant> ok, so what's the problem?
[08:44] <mrjaxon> Hey people :-) does anyone know of a good linuxvideo? I mean for learning. I've seen something called Linux+ and that was really helpful.
[08:47] <jumbers> Is there a way for me to block SSH logins from a certain block of IP addresses?
[08:48] <tomkat> binaryman: what does ps aux and grep x do?
[08:49] <Guest67722> Hi
[08:49] <Guest67722> Im back
[08:49] <Guest67722> rumpsy
[08:49] <BinaryMan> tomkat: mind you, i'm falling asleep, but ps aux prints all your running proccess, and piping it to grep X will show you only process with X in the name.
[08:49] <Guest67722> are u there?
[08:50] <BinaryMan> thus ps aux | grep X will show you if your X server is running.
[08:50] <rumpsy> so, what happened
[08:50] <Guest67722> GNU Grub version 1.87~beta4
[08:50] <Guest67722> Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31.-17-generic
[08:51] <Guest67722> Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31.-17-generic (recovery mode)
[08:51] <Copter> how can i find the path to jre on the system?
[08:51] <rumpsy> Guest67722: what happened to problem? sloved?
[08:51] <Guest67722> Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31.-14-generic
[08:51] <Guest67722> Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31.-17-generic (recovery mode)
[08:52] <rumpsy> Guest67722: Choose, <IP_ADDRESS>-gegeric
[08:52] <Guest67722> and (memtest+86+)
[08:52] <Guest67722> (memtest, serial console 115200)
[08:52] <rumpsy> s/gegeric/generic
[08:52] <Guest67722> rumpsy have u seen it?
[08:53] <Guest67722> **GNU Grub version 1.97~beta4
[08:53] <rumpsy> i think you installed new kernel
[08:53] <Guest67722> What should I do?
[08:54] <rumpsy> just boot your system, with <IP_ADDRESS>-generic
[08:54] <tomkat> binaryman: when i type grep X the prompt vanishes
[08:54] <Guest67722> why?
[08:54] <Guest67722> why not .17? :D
[08:55] <rumpsy> That one misconfigured
[08:55] <Guest67722> ah okay
[08:55] <Guest67722> I am running now is .17
[08:55] <Guest67722> I am running .17 now
[08:55] <rumpsy> if you want you can remove it from synaptic manager
[08:55] <Guest67722> Okay
[08:55] <Guest67722> I'll do what u say
[08:56] <nixjr> how can i use unrar in terminal, to extract many archives one after another?
[08:56] <ardchoille> nixjr: for i in *.rar; do; unrar $i; done
[08:56] <ardchoille> nixjr: Not sure about the "unrar " command though
[08:57] <Guest67722> BRB i'll change to .14
[08:57] <tomkat> is "ps aux | grep X" one command? if so, how do i input the middle char?
[08:57] <tomkat> the pipe
[08:57] <nixjr> ardchoille, i know "unrar e file.rar" works for one file
[08:57] <ardchoille> nixjr: for i in *.rar; do; unrar e $i; done
[08:58] <tomkat> what is that character in the mioddle of "ps aux | grep X"
[08:58] <ardchoille> pipe
[08:58] <EastDallas> tomkat: it's on the slash key right above enter
[08:58] <nixjr> ardchoille, bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
[08:58] <tomkat> thanks
[08:59] <pat|nG> do i need to format if i'll change my kde to gnome!?
[08:59] <EastDallas> pat|nG: no
[08:59] <Eremite> pat|nG, no
[08:59] <ardchoille> nixjr: for i in *.rar; do unrar e "$i"; done
[08:59] <andrew_50> nixjr: unrar e $1
[08:59] <ardchoille> nixjr: sorry, typo
[08:59] <EastDallas> pat|nG: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:59] <andrew_50> too slow :)
[09:00] <cairo__> hi
[09:00] <ardchoille> andrew_50: needs to be $i
[09:00] <cairo__> what's better, cron-apt or apticron?
[09:00] <xbuntu> hi
[09:00] <cairo__> i need a script to mail me about package updates
[09:00] <andrew_50> ardchoille: That make me slow and incorrect as well :(
[09:00] <ardchoille> andrew_50: time for coffee?
[09:01] <andrew_50> ardchoille: exactly :)
[09:01] <xbuntu> :D
[09:01] <pat|nG> EastDallas: just doin that? wid out purging my kde?
[09:02] <EastDallas> pat|nG: yep
[09:02] <pat|nG> or do i have to purge and install gnome?
[09:02] <pat|nG> i see
[09:02] <EastDallas> pat|nG: after you install gnome you can choose whether you use kde or gnome when you log in.
[09:02] <EastDallas> pat|nG: under session type
[09:03] <hiexpo> ? how do i get into to my source list i have duplicates in it
[09:03] <trevor> I only have gnome set up to start after a ./gnmoe --replace
[09:03] <Copter> whats the linux equalivent to: set ENVIRONMENT_ID=my-test-beta ?
[09:03] <nixjr> ardchoille, ah much thanks, i have 100+ 300mb archives, didnt feel like doing that manually
[09:03] <ardchoille> nixjr: hehe, understandable
[09:03] <EastDallas> pat|nG: if you want to remove kde completely: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[09:04] <EastDallas> hiexpo: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:04] <ardchoille> nixjr: in case you're wondering, that is a for loop.. it looks for any file with the .rar extension, unpacks it and goes on to the next one

[09:06] <hiexpo> EastDallas: - got it thanks
[09:07] <nixjr> ardchoille, ive written it down so i might adapt it for future uses
[09:07] <Eremite> Shay521, I would assume you could.
[09:07] <RaiN1> Hi
[09:08] <ardchoille> nixjr: Good idea, just change the ".rar" and "unrar e" bits for diff file types
[09:09] <l3ns> hi everyone
[09:09] <butterycroissant> hey buddy!
[09:10] <l3ns> i uninstalled my current gedit using sypnatic and downloaded the newest version which is 2.28. how do i install this new version? it;s .tar.gz file..

[09:12] <Bacta> l3ns: Unpack it
[09:12] <nixjr> ardchoille, strange, im looking at a system monitor, and it shows my dual core cpu with cpu1@50% and cpu2@30% usage, why are they not running as fast are possible to extract?
[09:12] <Bacta> Sounds like you'll need to build it
[09:12] <Myrtti> !pt | tiagospina
[09:12] <Bacta> Welcome to hell ;)
[09:12] <ardchoille> nixjr: no idea
[09:12] <tiagospina> ok tanks

[09:16] <mkanyicy> hi
[09:17] <LITesterB> !hello
[09:17] <mkanyicy> i have a 32-bit computer and I want to buy an nVidia AGP card and it says 'AGP 8x 64bit' and I am worried about that '64bit' description of the card, is it a right card for my PC?
[09:18] <LITesterB> what model?
[09:18] <indus> mkanyicy, doesnt matter what it says on the card, however this card seems rather old
[09:19] <mkanyicy> indus, what do you recommend then?
[09:19] <indus> mkanyicy, you trying to upgrade your card?is this a new card?
[09:19] <LITesterB> is this in a personal buy/sell print? they probably meant AGP 8x 64MB
[09:19] <indus> yeah probably its the ram
[09:19]  * _Ovidiu is away: Gone away for now
[09:19] <indus> 64 MB
[09:20] <mkanyicy> indus, I am afraid to buy stuff that will not work with my PC. my motherboard is Biostar P4M80-M4
[09:20] <mkanyicy> LITesterB, indus it's 64bit and 256MB
[09:20] <sandhya> post upgrade to karmic, console beeps are inaudible on my laptop.. any idea why?
[09:20] <indus> HMM ok
[09:21] <indus> mkanyicy, do you have an AGP slot?
[09:21] <mkanyicy> indus, LITesterB, I am not sure whether that means that it should be used to 64-bit computers or what
[09:21] <indus> ah yes it has
[09:21] <mkanyicy> indus, yes I have one
[09:21] <indus> mkanyicy, any link for the card?
[09:21] <mkanyicy> indus, I was using ATI Radion X700 and it died
[09:21] <LITesterB> do you have the model of the nvidia card?
[09:22] <mkanyicy> indus, here we go: http://www.kalahari.net/electronics/Gigabyte-NVIDIA-GeForce-6200/4585/34620212.aspx
[09:22] <l3ns> uhm guys, i am using 8.04 version now, how do i upgrade to 9.10?
[09:22] <indus> mkanyicy, aah a geforce 6200 , works fine
[09:22] <mkanyicy> LITesterB, http://www.kalahari.net/electronics/Gigabyte-NVIDIA-GeForce-6200/4585/34620212.aspx
[09:22] <mkanyicy> indus, so I must not worry about that '64bit' description ?
[09:23] <Eremite> l3ns, you can download the .iso from the internet or you can upgrade your current install by opening a terminal and typing: sudo apt-get install upgrade
[09:23] <Flannel> !upgrade | l3ns, Eremite
[09:23] <indus> mkanyicy, where does it say 64 bit
[09:24] <l3ns> Eremite, E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:24] <l3ns> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:24] <indus> mkanyicy, as far as i know, there is no such thing when buying a graphichs card
[09:24] <l3ns> that's after doing apt-get isntall upgrade
[09:24] <indus> mkanyicy, it looks out of stock though :)
[09:24] <LITesterB> 256MB 64Bit GDDR2
[09:24] <iceroot> Eremite: apt-get install upgrade != upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[09:24] <Jonathon> Hi. I have two HDDs, one with Vista and one with Ubuntu. Had some major problems on my Vista HDD and had to reinstall Vista. But now, when I turn on my computer, GRUB boot manager doesn't come up anymore. I can only get into Vista. I have tried holding down F8 at startup and booting from my Ubuntu HDD but it does not work. Is there anyway I can get the GRUB boot manager to come up when I turn my computer on again? Because right
[09:24] <indus> mkanyicy, aah its talking about the memory interface
[09:25] <Eremite> iceroot, OOPS, i though she said 9.04.  My mistake.
[09:25] <indus> mkanyicy, ddr 2 ram spec

[09:25] <indus> mkanyicy, dont worry about all that
[09:25] <FloodBot1> l3ns: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:25] <LITesterB> mkanyicy yes I would say that card will work with your motherboard
