[11:25] <nandu20> dnivra:did xcfa will be able to convert all the video files to other?
[11:25] <nandu20> mka:video file.....
[11:25] <SickAnimations> jacob_: So it won't let you edit the line?
[11:25] <dnivra> nandu20: nope it's an audio convertor. sorry.
[11:25] <llutz> nandu20: handbrake, ffmpeg, avidemux, mencoder   just to name a few

[11:26] <nandu20> mka:thank u......
[11:26] <mka> nandu20, to install these you can use synaptic
[11:27] <stronze> stalker_ think running mplayer in terminal will say what sound problem is/
[11:27] <SickAnimations> jacob_: I'm not sure what you've done. Can you use CTRL+C?
[11:27] <stalker_> stronze, oh so mplayer isnt working either? sounds like the issue isnt flash lol
[11:28] <stalker_> stronze, did you check alsamixer?
[11:28] <jacob_> SickAnimations: that worked......can you explain what that does?

[11:29] <SickAnimations> jacob_: It's an interrupt that usually forces the urrent program to quit
[11:29] <maco> knight5482: try linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic and reboot. if installing that doesnt help, file a bug "ubuntu-bug linux"
[11:29] <mka> knight5482, can you hear sound on both your earphones and the laptop speakers at the same time?

[11:36] <admin3700> i am using ubuntu , firefox 3 doesnt work any longer
[11:37] <silare> Does anyone know what theme and font is being used in this screenshot? http://www.exaile.org/screenshots/9p1Wp8j.png
[11:37] <llutz> admin3700:  echo "deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free"| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera.list  && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install opera
[11:37] <nandu20> i want to know which version u r using man...have u downloaded the package....
[11:38] <dnivra> llutz: one question: do you remember those commands in your head?
[11:38] <llutz> dnivra: except the url, yes
[11:38] <mats_> nanadu20, which software do you use
[11:39] <dnivra> llutz: amazing! wish I could also do that.
[11:39] <legend2440> admin3700: http://www.opera.com/browser/download/
[11:39] <nandu20> i havent downloaded any software yet.....i am using 9.04......
[11:40] <llutz> dnivra: looks harder as it is, that are basically just 3 very basic commands combined. no magic
[11:41] <admin3700> llutz, sry i am not very experienced in linux, but the link doesn't work, because the firefox doesn't work. should i enter these sudo-commands in the terminal?
[11:41] <stronze_> stalker_ - crappy iraq connection
[11:41] <llutz> admin3700: yes
[11:41] <CDZaioria> any one can tell me where is the files who configures the ubuntu's windows??
[11:41] <admin3700> but it doesn't work, there comes nothing
[11:42] <mats_> nandu20 : please try opensync or multisync than you can use the graphical interface
[11:42] <stronze_> stalker_ i messed around with my sound drivers and i dont get static anymore but youtune is silent
[11:42] <stronze_> stalker_ but i did player mover player first
[11:42] <nandu20> did u know link for that.......
[11:42] <dnivra> llutz: the last two make sense:P; the will to anyone who's used ubuntu for sometime I guess. the first one does make sense what's it's doing but not how it's working.
[11:43] <stalker_> stronze_, ah hah!
[11:43] <stalker_> stronze_, i think it may have to due with the fact you cant play 2 audio files at once on linux with mixing software isntalled
[11:44] <stronze_> stalker_ - quassel told me that driver didnt work and it went back to default.so it wasnt movie player saying the message
[11:44] <ce_wek> hai
[11:44] <stronze_> stalker_ i i never had this issue untill i deployed to iraq
[11:45] <admin3700> llutz: it doesn't work. here the excerpt sudo aptitude update
[11:45] <admin3700> sudo aptitude update
[11:45] <admin3700> sudo aptitude install opera

[11:45] <stalker_> stronze_, yeah, im pretty sure ubuntu takes care of that problem by default these days

[11:50] <stronze_> stalker_ now i gotta reboot if i want sound back
[11:50] <jason_> I thought Ubuntu packages were debian (.deb) and not binary...
[11:51] <jason_> I'm confused.
[11:51] <stalker_> stronze_, as a result of FF? i can see that, your probably having the same problem my lappy is, it works great unless i go to youtube
[11:51] <stronze_> stalker_ as far as i can figure its a problem with adobe java cuz i tried other video sits besides youtube
[11:51] <stronze_> stalker_ my best guess is a FF update screwed something up
[11:51] <stalker_> stronze_, and they work?
[11:52] <stronze_> stalker_ non work after i try any adobe flash players
[11:52] <jason_> Sound seems to be the one thing that Ubuntu has big problems with lo
[11:52] <stronze_> stalker_ via browser
[11:52] <stalker_> yeah, ive been meaning to try a different browser and see how it works
[11:53] <fallore> what do i have to do to get an ubuntu box with only the terminal to show up on my home network so that windows computers can read/write to it
[11:53] <stronze_> stalker_ - hmm i think ill try a diff browser. oprea or chrome?
[11:53] <stalker_> stronze_, a different browser might be the easiest solution, and although not the best, and just wait for new upgrade to FF
[11:53] <stalker_> stronze_, both if you have too lol
[11:53] <Tomi-87> Hi guys. Could you tell me what to do to have a modul loaded automatically after switching on the computer? Using modprobe manually every time is not a good solution... thx

[11:56] <mostafa_> how can I create an ISO file from the local hard disk files?

[11:57] <mostafa_> akos_: is this a command or a software?
[11:57] <stalker_> stronze_, i'd try chrome
[11:57] <akos_> mostafa_, it's a command line tool
[11:57] <stalker_> stronze_, but thats cause ive never used it, flash might not even be installed for it right now

[12:00] <akos_> nandu20, it freezes for MP3 also
[12:00] <llutz> dnivra: sry had to fight some snow outside.... first part looks strange but is needed because "sudo echo xxx " doesn't work. So you need "sudo tee" to redirect your echo-output somewhere
[12:00] <nandu20> have u tried vlc........?
[12:01] <akos_> nandu20, hmm no, but VLC isn't suited for listening to music, is it?
[12:01] <akos_> nandu20, i mean... it can play music files, but it's a far cry from winamp, or anything like that... I'll check in a moment
[12:01] <stronze_> stalker_ you know the diff betwen 32 and 64 bit? for some odd reason i cant remember.only thing that comes to mind is cpu

[12:02] <stronze_> stalker_ i cant remember.
[12:02] <akos_> nandu20, ok, i've shut off my virtual machine, now i can play music..... what can be the problem?
[12:02] <stalker_> stronze_,  use 32 then, 32 can run on 64 but 64 cant run on 32...basically
[12:03] <stronze_> stalker_ - was thinking 32 to be safe. but i cant remember what it refers to when it says 32 or 64 bit.type of cpu keeps coming to mind

[12:16] <mka> meero, any advantage of using aptitude over apt-get?
[12:16] <stalker_> mka,  no typing?

[12:18] <screamsayonara> how can i get the old driver off, is there a way i can restore previous settings or something like that?
[12:18] <mka> hi kue
[12:18] <iceroot> mka: this comes from debian : aptitude has more advanced conflict/dependency resolution and will often be able to come up with a solutionwhere apt-get just gives up. It has advanced search capabilities (see <aptitude search>).  Like apt-get, itcan also remove or purge one package at the same time as installing others all from the command line or atthe Y/n/q/? prompt using its interactive resolver, making it much easier to recover
[12:18] <stalker_> screamsayonara, if you reinstall the old one it should work
[12:18] <iceroot> subitoo: not working. just look at the manual
[12:19] <meero> mka: aptitude has some interface if u type command alone, that is why im using it
[12:19] <stalker_> screamsayonara, how are you isntalling them?
[12:19] <screamsayonara> stalker_ but i am a total noob and i dont know how to do that from the command line
[12:19] <mka> iceroot, thanks a lot, that was very informative
[12:19] <subitoo> iceroot: this one, sorry: http://tinyurl.com/yhdt6qe

[12:19] <andreas__> Hi! I'm trying to reconfigure grub from the boot live CD (ubuntu 9.10 freshly burned and torrented :p). I am following this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 Unfortunately at find /boot/grub/stage1 I get Error 15: File not found
[12:19] <subitoo> iceroot: well i've looked, and it's "1920 x 1080"
[12:19] <iceroot> subitoo: yeah
[12:19] <stalker_> screamsayonara, what video card do you have?
[12:19] <iceroot> subitoo: correct driver installed?
[12:20] <iceroot> mka: np
[12:20] <subitoo> iceroot: i guess
[12:20] <iceroot> mka: but i am using apt-get. never had problems with that. if i am writing in #debian they always post that text i gave to you
[12:20] <screamsayonara> i downloaded a like, self-installer from the ATI website but i guess it was the wrong wrong.... its a ati radion mobility hd 3470
[12:20] <andreas__> Any ideas on what to do?
[12:20] <dnivra> andreas__ reconfigure grub as in reinstall it?
[12:20] <pantelis__> i m trying to specify a problem on connection to router using usb. DONT know if is it kernel specific or distribution specific.using debian with 2.6.30 evrything works ok but not with 2.6.32.i suspect that r8169 couse that (my ethernet device is rlt8168d) due to firmware remove from 2.6.31-rc8 of rt8168-1,fw and rt8168-2.fw. THANKS
[12:21] <andreas__> dnivra: yes
[12:21] <stalker_> screamsayonara, maybe apt-get xf86-video-ati   or apt-get xf86-video-radeonhd
[12:21] <dnivra> andreas__: I'm not sure if I know anythin on how to help you but this documentation on GRUB2(since you're using 9.10) hopefully should https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[12:21] <JimAM> I put in my microsoft office cd but it won't install?
[12:22] <screamsayonara> but i cant connect to the internet i think.. its the recovery menu
[12:22] <screamsayonara> is there a command to get on someone elses wireless?
[12:22] <subitoo> iceroot: i have 185.18.36
[12:22] <screamsayonara> cause i dont know it
[12:22] <fallore> how do i navigate to computers on a windows network from the terminal so that i can copy them to the harddrive?
[12:22] <screamsayonara> (im not on my laptop... it is broken)
[12:22] <andreas__> dnivra: Thanks, I'll dig right into it, and I'll post on how it goes here
[12:23] <dnm> can osme one tell me how to configure my bsnl wireless
[12:23] <iceroot> fallore: smbclient
[12:23] <dnivra> andreas__: check "reinstalling from live cd section" think that's what you want.
[12:23] <iceroot> subitoo: sounds like nvidia
[12:23] <subitoo> iceroot: right
[12:23] <JimAM> how I installs microsofts office?
[12:23] <iceroot> subitoo: hm, sorry dont know
[12:23] <fallore> iceroot: says client not found, but when i run xbmc it sees the other computers so it must be able to do so
[12:24] <iceroot> JimAM: crossover but why not using openoffice?
[12:24] <bazhang> JimAM, perhaps via wine, check the appdb
[12:24] <bazhang> !appdb | JimAM
[12:24] <dnm> any one here who can help me with my wireless connection
[12:24] <iceroot> fallore: using the command correctly?
[12:24] <dnivra> !wireless | dnm
[12:24] <iceroot> fallore: is there smething shared on the win-pc?
[12:25] <fallore> iceroot: i dont know, i just typed what you typed to me. yes, there are shared files that should be visible.
[12:25] <dnm> dnivra
[12:25] <subitoo> iceroot: actually it's the 6930g and the max resolution is "1366 x 768 ( WXGA )" :(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[12:25] <dnm> dnivra yeah i have a bsnl connection so cant figure it out
[12:26] <dnivra> dnm: I'm sure how to help you; thought the guides would. I think it's as simple as connecting to the router. Do check the link which ubottu gave you.
[12:26] <dnivra> dnm: I'm not sure*
[12:26] <dnm> ubottu: i can read my wireless but i guess it is a pppoe connection
[12:27] <dnm> dnivra: sure thanks
[12:27] <meero> how to install rtorrent in chroot?
[12:27] <dnivra> dnm: the link which ubottu. sure no problem.
[12:27] <stalker_> screamsayonara, you dont have interent on the laptop?
[12:28] <dnm> dnirva: i had checked that out but cant figure out how to do it
[12:28] <dnivra> dnm: if you get stumped at any step, ask here. someone might be able to help out.
[12:29] <mka> meero, sudo apt-get install rtorrent?
[12:29] <meero> mka: in chroot? :-)
[12:29] <dnm> dnirva: yup thats y i came here ... i can get my wifi on the system but i am unable to connect
[12:30] <stalker_> screamsayonara, if your on live disc on the laptop, you should be able to get internet, you might just have to load the module for your wifi card
[12:30] <andreas__> okay when I run sudo install grub-pc I configure everything correctly like this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Upgrading%20to%20GRUB%202) but I get the error: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub."
[12:30] <andreas__> any ideas on what this means?
[12:30] <mka> meero, are you talking about the chroot I know?
[12:31] <mka> meero, what are you chroot-ing to?
[12:31] <meero> mka: yes, but i dont want to create/use root in chroot enviroment
[12:31] <sarthorks> I have a question regarding the "preparing system to mem sleep" msg in kern.log. Does it appear when the system is suspended, or when it is woken up for resume?
[12:31] <meero> i want to chroot rtorrent, and some other applications
[12:32] <mka> meero, are you getting errors when you try to install in that env?
[12:33] <dnivra> andreas__: since you're running the livecd, did you chroot into the root partition? just a thought that's all....
[12:34] <Maleko> what do you use to recover deleted data from ext4?
[12:35] <mka> Maleko, thrash
[12:35] <sarthorks> Should "PM: preparing system for mem sleep"at the time of suspend, or at the time of resume? (in kern.log)
[12:35] <andreas__> dnivra: I have not done this. I am running a amd64 version of 9.10 Is it any different than a 32 bit when it comes to chroot?
[12:35] <meero> mka: not really, because i dont have root privilages in chroot enviroment, im just thinking - how to install it outside of chroot
[12:36] <dnivra> andreas__: don't think so. not much idea. perhaps someone else will answer that.
[12:36] <mka> meero, but you can give yourself root priviledges in the chroot env before you get into it
[12:37] <meero> mka: good idea, i try it
[12:38] <bcj> Does anyone know of a reason why I might be stopped from locking the screen (9.10)?
[12:38] <mka> andreas__, chroot should work the same regardless of architecture
[12:39] <andreas__> thanks
[12:41] <Maleko> mka: sorry? thrash?
[12:44] <isolat3dsh33p> Q: is there anyway to change the index.theme file?
[12:45] <Klanticus> hello.. may someone help me changing screen resolution permanently?
[12:45] <wildlappy> how do I switch from Netbook remix to normal 9.10 (just remembered why I hated remix)
[12:47] <aska> Hi guys. I have lost access to my ecryptedfs ~ with all the files. Do not remember the passphrase and there is no .ecruptedfs/wrapped-passphrase file. Is there anything I can do in order to recovering my data?
[12:48] <meero> mka: maybe a stupid question, how to add user with admin privilages in chroot ?
[12:49] <stalker_> aska,  if you forgot the passphrase not likely
[12:49] <aska> Not good. :(
[12:49] <aska> Not good at all. :(
[12:49] <stalker_> aska, how strong was the pass? was it like 123
[12:49] <supertux1> aska http://www.kaijanmaki.net/blog/2009/10/26/recovering-files-from-ecryptfs-encrypted-home/
[12:49] <nstyr65> aska; you're out of luck if you forgot the password, unless you used a dictionary based pass
[12:49] <nstyr65> did you?
[12:50] <supertux1> aska that?
[12:50] <supertux1> a
[12:51] <nstyr65> supertux1; he forgot the pass
[12:51] <supertux1> aska but with no passphrase you cannot recovery anything... my article is bad...not for you sorry
[12:51] <nstyr65> your only option is trying to brute force the pass if you used a weak pass
[12:51] <c3101> okay, nasty question for the day:  i have pdf documents, with links to media files in them, like mp3s or videos, now things like envince or okular do not even see the links, where as acrobat reader for linux does... but this is not the problem... in acrobat, the only media play chooseable is RealOne, and it does not launch, how do i get acrobat reader on linux to launch the media player of my choice ?
[12:51] <aska> supertux1: :(
[12:51] <supertux1> nstyr65 infact i've read bad
[12:52] <aska> nstyr65: I do not know what password I have used. I think it generates one for me. Is that possible? If I did input the passworord by myself I might now what it is.
[12:52] <nstyr65> Does that program support using files as keys? In the future I would use an easy to remember pass and then just use some files as keys to strengthen it
[12:52] <stalker_> aska, after you forget your encryption key the second time you realize you cant remember a 30 character long string of random letters and special chars
[12:53] <usr13> aska: You did not write it down?
[12:53] <aska> usr13: Nope. :(
[12:53] <supertux1> with a strong algoritm and a strong pass need BILLIONS of year to recovery with all computer in the world :|
[12:53] <supertux1> years*
[12:54] <supertux1> bilions*
[12:54] <andreas__> So if my harddrive has sdb (filesystem) has sdb1linux, sdb2extended, sdb5,swap do I have a seperate boot partition?
[12:54] <aska> Ok, lets say I know the passphrase. If I was ask to input one i might know what it was. How can I try to recover it?
[12:54] <supertux1> sorry, my multilanguage ability is down today
[12:55] <nstyr65> aska; assuming you didn't use any other keys, you should be able to decrypt it with the program you used
[12:55] <nstyr65> as long as you guess the pass
[12:55] <aska> nstyr65: How should I try to do it?
[12:55] <stalker_> aska, what program did you use?
[12:55] <nstyr65> I've never used that program
[12:55] <aska> stalker_: Ubuntu installer.
[12:55] <supertux1> aska next time use a pass the write it on a pice of paper and keep it in a security box or hide it somewhere... (or use a keyfile) or both
[12:56] <nstyr65> I recommend truecrypt in the future
[12:56] <stalker_> aska, thats luks
[12:56] <supertux1> aska if the program supports keyfile
[12:56] <andreas__> Supertux1: Sorry let me rephrase myself. I'm still having problems with reconfiguring my MBR. My 1st harddrive has 3 seperate partitions SDB1,2,5 with following filesystems Linux, Extended, and Swap. Does this mean that I have a seperate /boot/ partition?
[12:56] <supertux1> if you didn't nkow the pass you spend your time
[12:56] <stalker_> aska, it doesnt ask you at boot time?
[12:57] <aska> stalker_: Cant remember now. If it did I know what I might have to input. I will not be able to guess a self generated pass.
[12:57] <bullgard> What does stand the file extension '.slt' for in (Mozilla) file:///home/<username>/default/12345678.slt/ ?
[12:58] <ikonia> bullgard: how is that an ubuntu question ?
[12:58] <supertux1> andreas__ extended is nto a partition.... i think no /boot in spearate partition
[12:58] <stalker_> aska, im not sure i understand your setup, but i have a FDE ubuntu setup up on one of these partiions somehwere
[12:58] <supertux1> andreas__ let me see you fdisk in pastebin
[12:58] <supertux1> sudo fdisk -l
[12:58] <stalker_> aska, you can mount it with luks open and some other tools, i get you a link
[12:58] <supertux1> !pastebin
[12:59] <supertux1> !paste
[12:59] <supertux1> aska without pass YOU SPEND YOUR TIME
[12:59] <ikonia> supertux1: ?
[12:59] <stalker_> i forgot my ubuntu forums pass :(
[13:00] <supertux1> ikonia ??
[13:00] <stalker_> aska,  there is stuff related to what you want to do in ubuntu forums
[13:00] <supertux1> ikonia need help?
[13:00] <aska> Guys. sorry for my english. Mine concern is: IF ubuntu asked me to input password - I KNOW what it is. If it generates one for me and I was supposed to save it - it's gone. Which case is true?
[13:00] <supertux1> stalker_ for that there a recovery
[13:00] <supertux1> is
[13:01] <supertux1> aska you installed ubuntu with alternate cd?
[13:02] <Maleko> what do you use to recover deleted data from ext4?
[13:02] <aska> supertux1: Do not think so.
[13:02] <stalker_> supertux1, i forget my email pass too :(
[13:03] <geirha> !undelete | Maleko
[13:03] <nstyr65> stalker_; I usually tell people to write gibberish as their email recovery question, but in this case it could actually be useful
[13:04] <nstyr65> er
[13:04] <nstyr65> stalker
[13:04] <nstyr65> lol
[13:04] <mka> meero, sorry I was away, did you figure out a way?
[13:05] <stalker_> nstyr65, my question asks what is the nature of reality?
[13:05] <nstyr65> lolwat
[13:05] <nstyr65> okay
[13:05] <paulus68> I can logon to my server from my office however I am not able to reach my laptop which is behind the server how do I solve this? this is my setup ISP=> router(ip<IP_ADDRESS>)=>eth0(<IP_ADDRESS>)server eth1(<IP_ADDRESS>) => switch =>laptop <IP_ADDRESS> my Iptables http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m18a1234d
[13:05] <geirha> Maleko: Or in other words, you restore from backup.
[13:05] <nstyr65> that's tough
[13:05] <stalker_> nstyr65, tell me about it :P
[13:05] <mka> Maleko, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/recover-deleted-files-with-foremostscalpel-in-ubuntu.html
[13:05] <nstyr65> but hey, good on you for picking a secure question
[13:06] <nstyr65> so secure you yourself can't even get in :P
[13:06] <nstyr65> your best bet is to email whatever provider you have and tell them all the details of your account and try to get them to reset the password
[13:07] <geirha> paulus68: Logon with what protocol?
[13:07] <paulus68> geirha: ssh
[13:07] <stalker_> nstyr65, best password is one you'll never remember right
[13:07] <nstyr65> : P
[13:07] <geirha> paulus68: Well, ssh to server then ssh to laptop should work
[13:08] <paulus68> geirha: correct but there should be a way to do that directly or am I wrong?
[13:08] <disappearedng_> Hey everyone, how come I have to log out, switch my locale to chinese, then log in and re-compile my java programs in order them to work? How come compiling my progams in my current encoding (utf-8) and defualt language english doesn't work?
[13:09] <geirha> paulus68: You could open an ssh-tunnel between the server and laptop. See ssh's -L option
[13:10] <SickAnimations> Happy new year :)
[13:11] <bcj> Why can I no longer lock my screen?
[13:11] <bcj> Any ieeas?
[13:11] <bcj> ideas*
[13:11] <disappearedng_> ctrl l?
[13:11] <disappearedng_> ctrl alt l
[13:11] <stalker_> bcj, are you root?
[13:11] <paulus68> geirha: ok and if I want to connect with vnc to my desktop which is running on windows how do I solve this then? I need to find a way to connect to my laptop/desktop behind the server without making a stop on my server
[13:12] <bcj> stalker_: I shouldn't need to be should I?
[13:12] <bcj> stalker_: I am the owner of the gnome session - I should be able to lock the screen, either from the top-right menu or the shortcut key I assigned.
[13:13] <disappearedng_> is anyone familiar with locale?
[13:13] <guiscard> how do I uninstall only openssl and some direct deps of it without affecting the entire system?
[13:13] <m3onh0x84_> hi all, why grub 2 is stable on debian squeeze sid , so on ubuntu 9.10 always crash
[13:13] <bcj> stalker_: It _used_ to work - up until a few days ago.
[13:13] <iolo> good
[13:13] <geirha> paulus68: That's a bit beyond my knowledge. #networking is probably better suited to help you.
[13:14] <paulus68> geirha: well I did post my question there earlier as well (as in 2 days ago) let IRC open for about 24 hours and no reply came
[13:14] <paulus68> geirha: thanks for the effort
[13:14] <bcj> paulus68: Unfortunately, not all IRC channels are as responsive, or helpful, as ubuntu.
[13:14] <stalker_> bcj, root might have differnt setup, and if you logged in as him by accident, then it might not be setup ;)
[13:15] <paulus68> bcj: I know that
[13:15] <bcj> paulus68: The usual response is "read the manual" - even when the manual is terrible.
[13:15] <bcj> stalker_: I'm not logged in as root.
[13:15] <stalker_> bcj, pussy
[13:15] <bcj> stalker_: Indeed.
[13:15] <stalker_> bcj, lol, check the lock screen options?
[13:16] <bcj> stalker_: Where are they?
[13:16] <stalker_> bcj, system prefs somehwere for gnome i think
[13:16] <paulus68> bcj:it's concerning Iptables over 2 different ip ranges so if you know a manual that can help me out please let me know
[13:17] <bcj> paulus68: Unfortunately not - sorry I can't help
[13:17] <SickAnimations> jacob_: It's an interrupt that usually forces the urrent program to quj
[13:17] <MoonShadow> Hi, I have a problem with a freshly set-up ubuntu 9.04 server
[13:17] <SickAnimations> jacob_: It's an interrupt that usually forces the urrent program to qujn
[13:17] <MoonShadow> after I log in it runs fine for some time and then jsut freezes
[13:18] <[S|G]> MoonShadow: any error messages on /var/log/messages ?
[13:18] <MoonShadow> If it happens to freeze while I'm typing something, it tells me <1>BUG: unable to handle kernel
[13:18] <SickAnimations> Sorry :S
[13:18] <MoonShadow> I checket the syslog
[13:18] <stalker_> bcj,  what happpens when you try? maybe its just the key-binding?
[13:18] <MoonShadow> but I didn't know about var/log/messages, I'll have a look thanks
[13:19] <zetheroo> Happy New Year to the Ubuntu Community
[13:20] <stalker_> bcj, screensver settings control when its locked by timeout, you can't click system, lockout?
[13:20] <bcj> stalker_: Ah - that might be it.  I disabled the screensaver start-up option.
[13:21] <bcj> Although, to me at least, it's not logical that this should have that kind of affect.
[13:21] <bcj> stalker_: Ah yes - screen locking is indeed part of the screensaver.
[13:21] <bcj> stalker_: Thanks for that! :)
[13:21] <stalker_> no prob man
[13:22] <drippee> question: Does anyone know if there is any vm client that supports opengl when using ubuntu as the guest?
[13:22] <paulus68> anyone that can help me out with my Iptable question?
[13:22] <Tiders> What is the path to a virtually mounted CD ISO
[13:22] <bcj> drippee: Most as far as I know.  Try VirtualBox.
[13:22] <ce_wek> hai
[13:22] <drippee> i know that vmware does not
[13:22] <ce_wek> hai
[13:23] <bcj> drippee: Yep, just checked and VirtualBox works.
[13:23] <drippee> cool
[13:23] <bcj> VMware should do (at least the commercial one does).
[13:23] <MoonShadow> Well, [S|G], I got as far as "could not find map file" when it froze again
[13:23] <bcj> drippee: VirtualBox is in the repos, can be installed easily, and is open source.  I use it all the time and have no problems so far.
[13:24] <drippee> i have never even been able to get gnome desktop effects to work in vmware
[13:24] <MoonShadow> I've gogoled that but I only find threads from people compiling their own kernels
[13:24] <chadi> What is the advantage of having /home, /usr, and /others as seperate partitions?
[13:24] <wildman> hello there, some times I have to run X apps after logging to a remote host using ssh. does ssh have an option similar to the ones found in vpn software that will degrade the graphic quality a bit in favour of speed?
[13:25] <drippee> does the standard install disk of ubuntu include gcc?
[13:25] <BlueBoyz> hi, i have plug usb modem. how to find path this modem. eg: /etc/usb0
[13:25] <bcj> drippee: Yes
[13:25] <llutz> chadi: /home for easier backup/restore, /usr maybe to have it ro-mounted, /var to prevent / getting filled
[13:25] <itsnotstalking> chadi, limits user hard drive usage
[13:25] <bcj> drippee: I believe it will do.  Try: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[13:25] <[S|G]> MoonShadow: you said it was 9.04, right?
[13:25] <nasser> hi everyone!
[13:26] <bcj> drippee: Make sure the CD is selected as a repo source.
[13:26] <MoonShadow> yes
[13:26] <itsnotstalking> chadi, or multiple systems could maybe share the same /home ??
[13:26] <MoonShadow> I downloaded when it came out and kept the cd
[13:26] <MoonShadow> installed from that
[13:26] <[S|G]> MoonShadow: is it fully updated?
[13:26] <chadi> itsnotstalking: good point, ty
[13:26] <tobiasz> can't play dvd it says something about mrl and not being able to set the title
[13:26] <MoonShadow> I just installed that Image I had, but told it to get security updates
[13:26] <chadi> llutz: but not all settings are in /home, some are in /usr
[13:26] <MoonShadow> I imagine sudo apt-get update wouldn't do because of freezing
[13:27] <MoonShadow> but I can give it a shot
[13:27] <hajar_> how to install cam in ubuntu 9.10 .. I try easycam2 but it doesn't work with this version ?
[13:27] <llutz> chadi: no user-settings should be in /usr
[13:27] <chadi> llutz: (in case of a backup I mean)
[13:27] <drippee> thanks bcj
[13:27] <nasser> My Ubuntu goes so slow. It spends a lot of time either to minimize or close an application. Please, help me!
[13:27] <[S|G]> I found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/250189
[13:27] <bcj> drippee: No problem.
[13:27] <llutz> chadi: if so, package is broken
[13:27] <hajar_> nasser :  problem in video adaper
[13:27] <[S|G]> MoonShadow: not sure if thats the same you're experiencing, but updating might help if you can do it
[13:28] <hajar_> nasser : did u mae update recently ?
[13:28] <chadi> llutz: oh, okay, then I could be mistaken, thank you
[13:28] <drippee> you know, i am sorry i have to shout this, but i just discovered freenode today, and my life is now forever changed
[13:28] <itsnotstalking> chadi, i dont use /home setting files that much, mostly just user storage, i use rc.conf or inittab or whatever else if i can
[13:29] <MoonShadow> [S|G], surprisingly update worked, but it doesen't look like he actually installed anything
[13:29] <MoonShadow> it got through to "Done" anyways
[13:29] <nasser> I installed UBuntu 9.10 and later I updated my PC
[13:29] <BlueBoyz> hajar_, try Cheese webcam booth
[13:30] <BlueBoyz> i'm using it
[13:30] <hajar_> BlueBoyz : not work at all
[13:30] <itsnotstalking> cheese has some sweet effects
[13:30] <itsnotstalking> they make you look mean
[13:31] <hajar_> nasser : this means the problem is in video adapter .. which one u use ?
[13:32] <MoonShadow> any ideas? fully updated freshly installed ubuntu Jaunty server crashes approximately 1 minute after boot
[13:32] <itsnotstalking> wow, i cant beleive there is no stripper version of AMOR
[13:32] <ce_wek> hai
[13:34] <itsnotstalking> i wonder if i can get this working in wine http://www.desktopstrippers.org/stripper.html

[13:36] <itsnotstalking> lol
[13:37] <MrX> hi folks :)
[13:37] <MoonShadow> hi
[13:38] <MrX> does anybody know a tool to make my remote control working with an irda-usb-adapter ?
[13:38] <MrX> lirc doesn't work with usb-irda :(
[13:38] <llutz> MrX: irda and remote-ir are different
[13:38] <MrX> llutz: i know
[13:38] <brUcE|g> .undernet.org
[13:39] <MrX> maybe someone wrote a kind of compatibility layer
[13:40] <llutz> MrX: isn't that difference hardware-related?
[13:41] <MrX> llutz: I'm not quite sure, just read, that lirc can't work with that, because they are too different
[13:41] <itsnotstalking> k, if anyone needs a virtual gf its linux users
[13:42] <craig1> im unable to print on ubuntu, completely out of ideas. could someone help me debug/diagnose the problem please?
[13:42] <craig1> the printers that were there have all disappeared (after months of working fine)
[13:43] <NewYear> happy new year
[13:44] <zleap> happy new year
[13:44] <MrX> yeah! dito! :)

[13:47] <nomnex> anyone 9.10 on a latest Thinkpad 400/500 serie?
[13:47] <nasser> hajar: what do you refer with video refer?
[13:47] <nomnex> does everything work out the box?
[13:48] <mka> nomnex, what do you want to fix?

[13:48] <nomnex> mka: I want to buy one
[13:49] <wangzj> I want to know how to install package from Deban
[13:49] <mka> nomnex, what makes you concerned?
[13:49] <wangzj> I want to know how to install package from Debain
[13:49] <nomnex> Thinkpad 400Ts? or 500 something same serie
[13:49] <pietro__> hello!!! c'è qualcuno che ha voglia di ciattare in italiano?
[13:50] <mka> wangzj, this is not a debian channel but "sudo apt-get install package-name" or "gksu synaptic"
[13:50] <nomnex> brb
[13:50] <erUSUL> !it | pietro__
[13:50] <mka> wangzj, this is not a debian channel but "sudo apt-get install package-name" or "gksudo synaptic"
[13:50] <wangzj> mka, thanks , but I still can not install Debain package with apt-get
[13:50] <nasser> hajar: I use an ati radeon!
[13:51] <mka> wangzj, are you using ubuntu or debian?
[13:51] <wangzj> mka, I use ubuntu
[13:51] <mka> wangzj, oh I get you  now
[13:51] <wangzj> but I want to install debain package
[13:51] <MoonShadow> itsnotstalking, that article is sad.
[13:51] <mka> wangzj, use "sudo gdebi package-name" or use "sudo dpkg -i package-name"
[13:52] <guiscard> I want to update the default openssl package (which came with ubuntu) to the alpha version from source how do I do it?
[13:52] <wangzj> mka, Thank you very much!
[13:52] <llutz> guiscard: build deb from source, install
[13:52] <mka> wangzj, did it work?
[13:52] <MrX> llutz: still there?
[13:53] <MrX> found something, but it's actually for windoze :(
[13:53] <llutz> MrX: ?
[13:53] <MrX> http://download.cnet.com/IrDA-Remote-Control/3000-2139_4-10554504.html
[13:53] <itsnotstalking> MoonShadow, lol, i came across it when search for virtual girl friend for linux
[13:53] <llutz> MrX: lirc_sir was an approach, but seems nothing usable
[13:53] <MrX> probably the only one company on the market now that uses IRDA to receive IR signal from remote control
[13:53] <itsnotstalking> MoonShadow, equallty sad :(
[13:53] <shushek> hello geeks, can i ask for some help.. data transfer to usb drive is damn slow on ubuntu 9.10.. how can i fix tht?
[13:53] <MoonShadow> quite
[13:53] <MrX> llutz: yes, I already tried that
[13:53] <MrX> didn't really work
[13:54] <konraddo> hmmm i'm looking for stable, international, popular, good jabber server ;>

[13:54] <itsnotstalking> MoonShadow, like you've ever had a girl keep talking to you after you finsihed fixing her computer?
[13:55] <wangzj> mka, the command can not be used to install debain package
[13:55] <Hajex> if it doesn't work try to reinstall the ati driver
[13:55] <llutz> !checkinstall | guiscard easiest way
[13:55] <Hajex> nasser: if it doesn't work try to reinstall the ati driver
[13:55] <wangzj> I try "sudo gdebi packagename"
[13:56] <erUSUL> !gksudo | wangzj
[13:56] <shushek> hello, data transfer to a usb drive is very slow in ubuntu.. hoe can i get it fixed
[13:56] <wangzj> gksudo gdebi g++
[13:56] <sunil1> after booting from live cd how to proceed to delete all my existing 9.04 versions
[13:57] <wangzj> "gksudo gdebi g++" still not work
[13:57] <bcj> What's the difference between sudo and gksudo?
[13:57] <MrX> rebooting
[13:57] <llutz> guiscard: some basics (should apply to ubuntu aswell) http://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals#maint-guide
[13:58] <itsnotstalking> sunil, ? you mean delete everything?
[13:58] <nasser> Hajex: You didn't understand me so well. I mean when I minimize or close aplications, my ubuntu spends a lot of time to do them!
[13:58] <itsnotstalking> sunil, what are you trying to do?
[13:58] <llutz> bcj: sudo might not work correct with gui apps
[13:58] <itsnotstalking> nasser, you have compiz installed?
[13:58] <sunil1> i'm trying to delete all my 9.04 versions
[13:58] <bcj> llutz: Yeah, but why?
[13:59] <sunil1> and i want to re-install again
[13:59] <itsnotstalking> sunil, then just repartition
[13:59] <llutz> bcj: it won't change users-env correct so you're messing up config-permissions
[13:59] <itsnotstalking> sunil, fdisk -l
[13:59] <bcj> Right
[13:59] <itsnotstalking> sunil, or just run the installer and pick use whole disk
[13:59] <nasser> itsnottalking: I have compiz installed
[13:59] <Hajex> nasser : I know .. it happened the same  for me . but I fix the problem by remove the whole version (9.04 ) and install (9.10 ) upgrading coz this problem
[13:59] <bcj> Can gksudo be used with non-gtk apps?
[13:59] <bcj> I.e. is it best just to always use gksudo?
[13:59] <itsnotstalking> sunil, the installer has an option to 'start clean'
[13:59] <llutz> bcj: sure
[14:00] <itsnotstalking> nasser,  i read in compiz options or docs osmething about that, go check what you have enabled
[14:00] <nasser> Hajex: I have the version 9.10 installed on my computer
[14:00] <sunil1> i'm having xp also
[14:00] <sunil1> i dont want xp to be deleted
[14:00] <itsnotstalking> nasser,  or search for you problem with compiz in google, i know i read something about slow windows and compiz
[14:01] <sunil1> i want to delete only 9.04 versions
[14:01] <Hajex> nasser : ATI is so bad and coz all of this problem .. so just try to make it suitable with system or remove it at all
[14:01] <itsnotstalking> nasser, thats probably you problem, dont know the solution tho
[14:01] <itsnotstalking> sunil, yeah, the ubuntu installer will repartiton the drive 'over top' of you old systems <--- laymans terms
[14:02] <itsnotstalking> sunil, when you just the installer let it partition for you, and pick, use whole disc
[14:02] <itsnotstalking> or do you have multiple hd's?
[14:02] <wangzj> Hi, how to install debain package in ubuntu, are there other commands except "sudo dpkg -i packagename"
[14:03] <erUSUL> !debian | wangzj
[14:03] <itsnotstalking> sunil, or just mount the drives and do rm *, or just delete the partitions
[14:03] <bcj> wangzj: Double click ;)
[14:03] <sunil1> no., i have only one hdd
[14:04] <nasser> Hajex: What're u saying? ATI is one of the best video adapter! The problem is that the ATI's drivers are private not free
[14:04] <sunil1> in my pc there are many 9.04 versions and xp installed. now i want to delete all existing 9.04 versions.not the xp. can you tell me the procedure???
[14:04] <francolles> #ubuntu-br
[14:04] <itsnotstalking> sunil, yes
[14:04] <MoonShadow> sunil1, just format the partitions that ahve ubuntu on them
[14:04] <itsnotstalking> sunil,  you know what partitions are?
[14:04] <Hajex> nasser : ok no problem as u like .. try to find solution by other way
[14:05] <nomnex> wow, just finished K1, Massto won but cheated. Andy's best.
[14:05] <nasser> I disabled the whole compiz options
[14:05] <guiscard> llutz,  can I remove openssl without affecting essential components of ubuntu?
[14:05] <francolles> brasil
[14:05] <erUSUL> sunil1: restore xp mbr with the windosXP install disk (boot into recovery console use « fixmbr » more details in ##windows) then just reformat/join all ubuntu paritions to ntfs so you can use them from Windows
[14:05] <sunil1> can you tell me how to format the partions of ubuntu???
[14:05] <llutz> guiscard: i doubt that
[14:05] <Hajex> nasser : I have ATI and till now in each version I face problem with it  .. I mean ATI not suitable with ubuntu
[14:06] <nomnex> sunil, you can use gparted or gpart
[14:06] <llutz> guiscard: why would you remove it, just upgrade the version
[14:06] <Hajex> and believe me it dies now :P
[14:06] <scunizi> Hajex: replace ubuntu in that statement with "Linux" .. it's not ubuntu specific
[14:06] <nasser> Hajex: But did u resolve your problem with ATI drivers?
[14:06] <simplexio> Hajex: t should or nicely if dont even dream running compiz and other candy
[14:06] <MoonShadow> try getting gparted bootable cd, sunil1
[14:07] <Hajex> scunizi : ok
[14:07] <sunil1> may i know how to open gparted window
[14:07] <itsnotstalking> sunil, gparted
[14:08]  * jimcooncat hates it when people don't stick around for an answer
[14:08] <MoonShadow> you want the bootable gparted CD, sunil1
[14:08] <itsnotstalking> or you can do mkfs.etx3 from live disc
[14:08] <MoonShadow> you pop it into the drive and load it istead of an operating system
[14:08] <sunil1> yes
[14:08] <MoonShadow> true, that works
[14:09] <MoonShadow> but gparted would allow you to recombine them and make one big partition
[14:09] <Hajex> nasser : yah it work better after fresh installation of ubuntu 9.10 but not in running high video
[14:09] <itsnotstalking> sunil, run sudo fdisk -l and write down the parts you need to format
[14:09] <itsnotstalking> sunil, then do mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda* from live disc
[14:09] <itsnotstalking> * is the number that your partition is
[14:09] <sunil1> where can i find bootable gparted CD,
[14:09] <nasser> how can I run ubuntu in low quality?
[14:10] <ardchoille> !sysresccd | sunil
[14:10] <itsnotstalking> nasser, what?
[14:10] <MoonShadow> http://lmgtfy.com/
[14:10] <jimcooncat> nasser: please rephrase -- low quality what? lower graphics resolution?
[14:11] <nasser> jimcoocant; exactly, low resolution
[14:11] <nasser> jimcooncat: wanna make faster my ubuntu
[14:11] <jimcooncat> nasser: System -> Preferences ->Screen resolution
[14:11] <jimcooncat> nasser: that won't make your computer faster AFAIK
[14:12] <nasser> So, what will make my computer faster than it's?
[14:12] <itsnotstalking> nasser, if your the guy with the compiz prob, not using compiz would use less resources
[14:12] <jimcooncat> nasser: you may want to try a lighter window manager, such as openbox or xmodad
[14:13] <Younder> nasser, more RAM probaly, optionally trim off the components you don't need
[14:13] <hareldvd> Seems I am onto a huge bug. Editing menus can cause total malfunction of desktop resulting in windows decorations lost and therefore inability to move windows around. Did anyone bump into this one?
[14:13] <itsnotstalking> nasser, thats a good idea, then boot fast, what jimcooncat said
[14:13] <sunil1> is there any command to open "gparted" window???
[14:13] <jimcooncat> xmonad -- correction
[14:13] <nasser> I've uninstalled compiz and the problem persists
[14:13] <erUSUL> sunil1: « gksudo gparted »
[14:13] <Leapo> nasser: Heh, I'm having issues getting compiz working as well -_-
[14:13] <scunizi> nasser: if you have ATI check ATI's website for compatibility issues with your model card and xorg 7.3+
[14:13] <itsnotstalking> Leapo, what video card you have?
[14:13] <jimcooncat> nasser: probably the easiest is to install xubuntu-desktop, though it's not the lightest thing out there.
[14:13] <itsnotstalking> Leapo, it works good with nvidia, for me at least
[14:14] <Leapo> itsnotstalking: The host has a GTX260 and a 9800GT
[14:14] <itsnotstalking> Leapo, i got a 9500GT and its working good
[14:14] <Leapo> (Ubuntu is running in VMWare 7, 3D acceleration is working, but compiz will not enable)
[14:14] <itsnotstalking> Leapo, someone else was saying its hard to get it working in compiz
[14:15] <itsnotstalking> Leapo, someone else was saying its hard to get it working in vmware
[14:15] <Leapo> Double post?
[14:15] <itsnotstalking> no
[14:15] <itsnotstalking> last word was wrong lol
[14:15] <Leapo> ah
[14:15] <scunizi> Leapo: that's probably because the VM doesn't know you have an nvidia card.. vmware will emulate something else.. and quite possibly ubuntu doesn't recognize it as a card capable of 3d
[14:16] <Leapo> Well, there's got to be a way. OpenGL is working, and i obviously have the video driver installed properly (triple monitor is working http://kimag.es/share/88166866.png)
[14:16] <scunizi> Leapo: have you looked in System>Admin>Hardware drivers? to see if there is something there that needs activating?
[14:16] <erUSUL> Leapo: scunizi is right. compiz has a whitelist of cards (drivers to be precise) it supports. vmware card/driver is not in that list
[14:17] <Leapo> scunizi: Yes, VMWare's video card identifies as some generic card, but it supports all the features of the host video adapter in VMWare 7
[14:17] <nomnex> what's the command to see if my "laptop_<make>.ko" module is correctly mounted?
[14:17] <sunil1> "Unable to delete /dev/sda8! Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 8" how to delete that one????????
[14:17] <sarthork1> Should "PM: preparing system for mem sleep" appear at the time of suspend, or at the time of resume? (in kern.log) (ubuntuforum post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1368899)
[14:17] <Leapo> erUSUL: Compiz hasn't been updated for VMWare 7, then?
[14:18] <erUSUL> Leapo: scunizi « cat $(which compiz) | grep WHITELIST » at your own risk you can edit the script and add your driver to that list
[14:18] <axz> Guys whats best suggested burning tool for Ubuntu
[14:18] <scunizi> Leapo: you could try making a copy of your ubuntu vm and load it in virtuabox.. however their 3d support is still a little sketchy
[14:18] <erUSUL> nomnex: loaded not mounted ;) is « lsmod | less »
[14:19] <scunizi> axz: k3b
[14:19] <Leapo> Yeah, VMWare seems to have some seriously mature 3D support. i had Crysis running in a Windows VM
[14:19] <axz> scunizi, yeah but he needs to install all kind KDE3 junk
[14:19] <scunizi> so
[14:19] <Leapo> erUSUL: I'll give it a shot. It /should/ work fine.
[14:19] <nasser> how can I check the version of my ATI video adapter
[14:20] <axz> scunizi, dunno doesn't that give any complications?
[14:20] <nomnex> erUSUL, right, how do I interpret "panasonic_laptop        5468  0" loaded?
[14:20] <sarthork1> nasser: try 'dmidecode'
[14:20] <erUSUL> axz: use brasero or gnomebaker; for my needs the nautilus built in burner is enough most of the time
[14:21] <erUSUL> nomnex: it is loaded if it appears in the list
[14:21] <Leapo> erUSUL: Yeah, that's a pretty darn short whitelist it has there O_O
[14:21] <axz> erUSUL, mostly need it for ISO files...
[14:21] <Trijntje> Hi all, my wireless internet acts very strange when I go to a site. It say's "looking up google.com" for like ten second, and then suddenly the whole page is loaded. What can cause this?
[14:21] <nomnex> erUSUL, the value 0 or 1 is not relevant?
[14:21] <scunizi> axz: no doesn't cause any issues.. and the required packages will be automatically installed.. you'll never know they are there.. k3b will just run
[14:22] <erUSUL> Leapo: short? there are not many videocard chip makers left. with that list compiz covers all cards
[14:22] <macman_> hey all .. i used growiso -Z if i can recall to burn a dvd but it didn't work .. it burned teh dvd files at like 6x and i neeed it at least at 1x .. should i juse use kde or k3b to burn ?
[14:22] <erUSUL> nomnex: it indicates how many other modules depend on that one.
[14:22] <axz> scunizi, i will try it...
[14:22] <axz> thx
[14:22] <erUSUL> nomnex: no other modules depend on it so it shows 0
[14:22] <Leapo> erUSUL: I expected a number of variations on each name. Not all video cards identify the manufacturer identically, and if it's case sensitive...
[14:23] <erUSUL> Leapo: is the *driver* name not the card/chip name
[14:23] <Leapo> erUSUL: It's also missing Matrox and S3
[14:24] <bl33d> Why is my ubuntu failing to mount one of the HD:s after it has been "checked" in the startup? And how do i get it to mount again. Because after few boots it still doesnt mount it.
[14:24] <erUSUL> Leapo: what was the last time you saw a matrox card ;P.
[14:24] <Diverdude> How do i use dmesg to obtain information about which wireless card there is on the computer, and what chipset is located on the wireless card?
[14:24] <nomnex> erUSUL, thanks. they's change something from 9.04 to 9.10? I had to load the volume on 9.04 but it was stable 9.10 let me access the FN keys for brightness but my setting is not permanent and revert to max brightness at each reboot
[14:24] <junos> I just got a dell 10v preloaded with ubuntu....should I bother upgrading it to karmic
[14:24] <Leapo> erUSUL: Uh, they still make workstation cards, they just released a DX10 card not too long ago...even so, the older ones support OpenGL well enough to run compiz.
[14:24] <nomnex> edit: load the module
[14:25] <Trijntje> Since Karmic DNS resolv takes a long time on my laptop with wireless, any pointers on how to fix this?
[14:25] <scunizi> KB1JWQ: hey corey ..
[14:25] <erUSUL> nomnex: really dunno about those isuues... file a bug report
[14:25] <nomnex> erUSUL, good idea
[14:25] <wildman> have a nice 2010 everyone! bye!
[14:25] <MrX> same2you!
[14:25] <axz> same to you
[14:26] <Leapo> erUSUL: Well, how would I go about adding VMWare's video adapter to this list?
[14:26] <erUSUL> Leapo: if they are not in the whitelist is becouse this " ... support OpenGL well enough to run compiz." it is not true.
[14:26] <erUSUL> Leapo: compiz devs know better than you and me
[14:27] <Leapo> Well, VMWare's video adapter passes calls directly to the video hardware of the host (which does support OpenGL well enough to run compiz), and it isn't in the list :-P
[14:27] <nasser> erUSUL: How can I know the version of my ATI video adapter?
[14:27] <Leapo> erUSUL: It could just be a lack of S3 and Matrox video drivers for Linux
[14:28] <erUSUL> nasser: after the all caps spamming you made here yesterday you spect me to help you ??
[14:28] <LinuxAdmin> I'm getting troubles with "pbuilder update" command, I get "/home/nuno/.pbuilderrc: line 1: restricted: command not found"
[14:28] <LinuxAdmin> can someone help me?
[14:28] <ctmjr> Leapo: there is a #compiz channel
[14:29] <Leapo> ctmjr: Just need to know how to get the whitelist open so I can edit it...

[14:29] <erUSUL> Leapo: what's the vmware driver's name ?

[14:34] <Leapo> erUSUL: I was hoping Ubuntu actually had a GUI for something as simple as that...but ok
[14:34] <LinuxAdmin> it's used to make ubuntu packages
[14:34] <Captain_Haddock> ah
[14:34] <erUSUL> Leapo: you can install lshw-gtk if you want
[14:34] <erUSUL> Leapo: or sysinfo

[14:39] <erUSUL> Leapo: it should not open anything. it should just print lines with driver in it
[14:39] <DarkS7ar> i dont know if smth is wrong with my video card
[14:39] <FuneralChris> DarkS7ar, and whats wrong witz it?
[14:39] <scunizi> nasser: FuneralChris look up your ATI card on ATI's site to see if it's even compatable with Xorg 7.2+  .. if it's not it won't make any difference installing the driver.
[14:39] <DarkS7ar> because it has to be a 512mb one but lspci says it is 256

[14:39] <Leapo> erUSUL: Yes, which line am I looking for? "Driver: vmware" or "drivers//cmware_drv.so"?
[14:40] <erUSUL> Leapo: Driver: vmware i suppose. that's what you have to add to the whitelist
[14:40] <FuneralChris> scunizi, i dont use an ATI Card, you mean "nasser"
[14:40] <Leapo> erUSUL: Heh, I could have guessed that.
[14:40] <macman_> nvm got it
[14:40] <DarkS7ar> FuneralChris:  do u have any idea?
[14:40] <scunizi> FuneralChris: I put both of your nick in the line so you would be aware too.
[14:40] <Leapo> erUSUL: Ok, now how do I go about getting that into the whitelist?
[14:41] <FuneralChris> DarkS7ar, try to update your system (/kernel)
[14:41] <erUSUL> Leapo: open the compiz script with an editor and modify the line
[14:41] <Leapo> I have no clue where that is...
[14:41] <FuneralChris> DarkS7ar, or it could be a bug in graphic card drivers

I tried installing the samsung linux driver, but it only got me as far as priniting the message: INTERNAL ERROR - Please use the proper driver (and a few other lines) every time I send a job to the printer. Any ideas?
[14:41] <FuneralChris> scunizi, right ;-)
[14:41] <DarkS7ar> FuneralChris: let's hope it's a bug
[14:41] <DarkS7ar> :)

[14:42] <ctmjr> Leapo: it is here but adding it does not mean it will work iirc /usr/bin/compiz
[14:42] <xtjacob> does debian offer the same hardware support as ubuntu?

[14:42] <Witchy> xt i do not know
[14:43] <scunizi> Guest86531: use http://localhost:631 to install another instance of the printer.. then try that instance.. cups can be funky sometimes
[14:43] <FuneralChris> xtjacob, debian use an older kernel, so ubuntu got more hardware drivers
[14:43] <erUSUL> xtjacob: no; ubuntu adds some drivers and firmware that debian would consider questionable

[14:49] <grayghost> that did it thanks
[14:49] <FuneralChris> macman_, ist it booting with an error, or was grub overwritten?
[14:49] <erUSUL> Leapo: there were no waranties. it is not in the whitelist for a reason ;P
[14:49] <Xpistos|work> is there a way to take an alias command and drop it in a custom application launcher? I try and I get the message"Failed to execute child process "upgrade" (No such file or directory)"?
[14:49] <Leapo> erUSUL: Yeah, because compiz updates are few and far between :-P
[14:49] <macman_> ok nvm fujimitsu a copule of reboots worked

[14:49] <nomnex> erUSUL, can I pastebinit a IRC conversation with a command too?
[14:49] <Leapo> erUSUL: The video card supports it. Compiz just needs a kick in the head
[14:50] <FuneralChris> Leapo, do you use gnome?
[14:50] <Leapo> At the moment, yes
[14:50] <belak> Wow, the live cd has really improved... I remember last time I tried it, it kept freezing...
[14:50] <majuk> Can anyone think of a command to adjust the permissions on all subdirectories of /foo/ ? Just the subdirs, not the files.
[14:50] <FuneralChris> Leapo, i think where is a whitelist file, you can edit that
[14:51] <belak> I'm almost tempted to use ubuntu again
[14:51] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Just did that :-P
[14:51] <FuneralChris> Leapo, didnt work i bet xD
[14:51] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Nope -_-
[14:51] <llutz> majuk: find /foo -type d -exec chmod... {} +
[14:51] <nomnex> belak, it kept freezing for me
[14:51] <scunizi> belak: if you're not stuck on gnome then you should also look at kubuntu
[14:52] <FuneralChris> Leapo, no chance
[14:52] <majuk> llutz, Thansk
[14:52] <qt-x> and xubuntu :)
[14:52] <zvacet> majuk:  see if this command help gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_advanced_permissions True
[14:52] <belak> scunizi, my computer is too slow for kde
[14:52] <belak> scunizi, at least with suse
[14:52] <Leapo> FuneralChris: That doesn't make any sense, dude... VMWare's video card definitely supports OpenGL.
[14:52] <zvacet> majuk:  you will have GUI for set parmissions
[14:52] <belak> nomnex, the 9.10 cd?
[14:53] <FuneralChris> Leapo, whats the exact problem? Is just compiz not working?
[14:53] <nomnex> yes, intel 855 chipset problem
[14:53] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Pretty much.
[14:53] <belak> nomnex, oh... yeah, I've got nvidia
[14:53] <scunizi> belak: too bad.. 4.3+ is starting to look pretty polished
[14:54] <belak> scunizi, I love kde... my computer just can't handle it...
[14:54] <nomnex> belak, portable or desk?
[14:54] <belak> laptop
[14:54] <gabbah> i can use apt-get in debian in the same way as in ubuntu right?
[14:54] <nomnex> belak, make?
[14:54] <Witchy_> sorry im not good on using pcs
[14:54] <scunizi> belak: :) turn it into a headless server and craiglist a newer one..
[14:54] <FuneralChris> belak, whats about xfce, icewm and enlightenment?
[14:55] <belak> it's about 5 years old... dell inspiron 8600
[14:55] <llutz> gabbah: yes
[14:55] <zvacet> gabbah : yes
[14:55] <gabbah> and sources.list works exactly the same?
[14:55] <belak> FuneralChris, I'm probably gonna try gentoo again with musca
[14:55] <Witchy_> xristos where are u?
[14:55] <scunizi> belak: how much ram?
[14:55] <Witchy_> ram???
[14:55] <belak> I've got 1.25 Gb of ram and a 1.6 GHz pentium processor. My video card is an nvidia GeForce FX 5200
[14:55] <majuk> zvacet, Nah, I'm on a command line on a remote system. Thanks though.
[14:56] <Witchy_> is it a cake? :P
[14:56] <llutz> gabbah: its apt, all the same
[14:56] <belak> That's 1 1gb stick and 1 256 mb stick
[14:56] <FuneralChris> belak, did you tried to change the drivers?
[14:56] <Xpistos|work> Witchy I am in the US - Nashville TN
[14:56] <zvacet> majuk : sorry I didn´t knew that
[14:56] <belak> FuneralChris, I havn't tried ubuntu...
[14:56] <Witchy_> katse sou erxome prv
[14:56] <gabbah> llutz, zvacet: because a line i added to source.list on another computer worked just fine... but on this on i get the error:  W: Failed to fetch http://download.telldus.com/debian/dists/stable/Release  Unable to find expected entry  main/binary-armel/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
[14:56] <belak> My video card only has 64 mb of memory...
[14:56] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Take a look, OpenGL rendering does work. http://kimag.es/share/12934557.png
[14:56] <scunizi> belak: that should work fine.. however the mismatch of the ram might be part of your issue.. I'd still be running my 1.6 pentium except the motherboard died
[14:57] <belak> Should that be enough to run kubuntu?
[14:57] <belak> scunizi, why would that be an issue?
[14:57] <jsilver> how do i turn off ubuntu notifications
[14:57] <jsilver> in gnome
[14:57] <gabbah> llutz, zvacet: when doing apt-get update
[14:57] <FuneralChris> Leapo, it could be software rendering, pls paste "glxinfo"
[14:57] <nomnex> belak, my specs are lower I run ubuntu 9.10 just fine
[14:57] <belak> nomnex, gnome or kde?
[14:57] <zvacet> gabbah : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[14:57] <nomnex> gnome, I don't like kde
[14:57] <FuneralChris> belak, freezing screen is a grapihc card driver bug
[14:58] <alteneo> what last version???
[14:58] <guiscard> anyone knows a good program to limit bandwidth?
[14:58] <gabbah> zvacet: why do i have to do upgrade though? i only added a line to sources.list
[14:58] <belak> That's what I'm saying. It hasn't done that lately and I'm impressed enough to try ubuntu again
[14:58] <belak> That's why I left
[14:58] <ctmjr> gabbah: why are you adding a debian repo to ubuntu
[14:58] <disappearedng> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/160906/ can someone tell me how to resolve this?
[14:58] <zvacet> gabbah : why do you mix repos amy special reason for that
[14:59] <Leapo> FuneralChris: That's running at 450FPS :-P Here's a paste of glxinfo, though http://slexy.org/view/s2swrbrHKC
[14:59] <gabbah> zvacet: and now i'm on ssh on a debian box (a small linkys NAS, NSLU2 if you know it :) ), and it doesn't have sudo it seems. i must change user to root.
[14:59] <llutz> gabbah: should it be "deb http://download.telldus.com/debian/ stable"
[14:59] <zvacet> gabbah : sorry you don´t need to upgrade if you don´t want to
[14:59] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Looks like it's running in hardware to me
[14:59] <alteneo> I want try ubut, but what's last version and where can I donload it
[14:59] <bluebaron> Trying to use X11 forwarding through ssh.  Keep getting error: "Error: Can't open display: localhost:11.0" Any ideas?

[15:00] <gabbah> zvacet, llutz: http://developer.telldus.se/wiki/TellStickInstallationUbuntu  <-- following this. but, doing it on debian, not ubuntu. that is why i asked if apt-get is the same...
[15:00] <netnull> helo, i need someon help. my system doesnt work anymore. seems fat is broken. how to fix it again? please help--

[15:06] <belak> Now the hard choice... kde or gnome... or xfce...
[15:06] <MoonShadow> gone ;)
[15:06] <FuneralChris> Leapo, what graphic card do you use?
[15:06] <MoonShadow> gnome*
[15:07] <FuneralChris> belak, kde
[15:07] <zvacet> gabbah : sorry I was not much of help
[15:07] <belak> haha
[15:07] <Leapo> FuneralChris: The host's graphics cards are a GTX260 and a 9800GT.

[15:07] <FuneralChris> Leapo, and you are using vesa drivers?
[15:07] <Pici> !pl | Guest79065
[15:07] <Leapo> FuneralChris: This is running inside VMWare
[15:08] <belak> Now...
[15:08] <izmar> who from malaysia
[15:08] <erUSUL> netnull: could be if the problem is a corrupted parition table
[15:08] <belak> *sigh* I can't find the ubuntu alternate install on the cdimage server
[15:08] <Leapo> FuneralChris: VMWare 7 added full 3D acceleration, so this /should/ be working. Aero works on Windows, and DirectX and OpenGL applications all work almost as fast as native apps now.
[15:08] <Guest79065> ok dzieki
[15:09] <MoonShadow> Hi, Can anyone help me: I installed Ubuntu 9.04 Server, but the machine always freezes about 1 minute after login. Sometime I get "unable to handle kernel paging request...". Googling this only yields pages relevant to self-compiled kernels
[15:09] <MoonShadow> I'm at a complete loss...
[15:09] <netnull> erUSUL, i think its the problem. i've tryed testdisk but doenst recognize my extended patrition and the others inside it
[15:09] <nikow> MoonShadow: memtest?
[15:09] <edulacomadreja> hi everyone! I want to sync my w715 mobilephone with evolution
[15:09] <MoonShadow> runs fine
[15:09] <nikow> hmm...
[15:09] <MoonShadow> I tried each RAM-Stick individually, none of them seem to be specifically the problem
[15:10] <edulacomadreja> does someone has a good tutorial about this?
[15:10] <FuneralChris> Leapo, compiz is just working with direct rendering, "(==) AIGLX enabled" -> aiglx is indirect rendering, so maybe its just a bug (and you have direct rendering), or your system is not using direct rendering
[15:10] <nikow> MoonShadow: sorry, i can't help
[15:10] <erUSUL> Leapo: compiz needs a very specific opengl GLX extension to be aviable. GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap maybe the vmware driver simply does not support it yet
[15:10] <MoonShadow> I've removed the TV card and Unplugged all Drives...
[15:10] <belak> Ok
[15:10] <MoonShadow> Can anyone?
[15:10] <belak> I'll try kubuntu
[15:10] <erUSUL> Leapo: glxinfo | grep GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap
[15:10] <FuneralChris> !ask | MoonShadow
[15:10] <Leapo> erUSUL: the VMWare driver just passes calls directly to the hosts hardware. if the host video adapter supports it, so should VMWare's
[15:11] <FuneralChris> erUSUL, thx, didnt remember the command
[15:11] <netnull> if no solution to fix table of partition i'd accept also some tricks to save dates and then reinstall system
[15:11] <erUSUL> netnull: you can try gpart
[15:11] <FuneralChris> netnull, try a rescue disk
[15:11] <erUSUL> !info gpart | netnull
[15:11] <belak> Oh, is the encrypted home dir useful at all?
[15:12] <belak> It seemed pointless to me
[15:12] <bluebaron> I have just apt-get install xorg and I just want to be able to x11 forward.  How do I start the xserver for x11 ssh connections only
[15:12] <bluebaron> ?
[15:12] <netnull> erUSUL, its possible to install from live cd? im on it
[15:12] <bluebaron> incoming x11 connections
[15:12] <grawity> bluebaron: Try 'startx'.
[15:12] <erUSUL> netnull: yes. sudo aptitude install gpart
[15:12] <nomnex> belak, there is a bug with a full encrypted home dir
[15:12] <netnull> thx
[15:13] <belak> nomnex, ok, then I won't bother with it
[15:13] <llutz> belak: at least on portable computers encryption is evident
[15:13] <Leapo> erUSUL: Just checked, and yes, that feature _is_ supported
[15:13] <erUSUL> netnull: http://www.brzitwa.de/mb/gpart/index.html
[15:13] <Leapo> So there's no reason this shouldn't be working
[15:13] <bluebaron> grawity, im remoting into a small linux device.  will startx work?
[15:13] <MoonShadow> what causes "unable to handle kernel paging request"? which kernel module/software?
[15:13] <erUSUL> Leapo: then it is time to take this to the compiz developers power users. --> #compiz
[15:13] <nomnex> belak, you can't resume from suspend if I recall
[15:13] <Leapo> *sigh* off I go
[15:13] <grawity> bluebaron: wait, where did you install that Xserver? On your local system or on that remote device?
[15:14] <ljamisonii> hello all
[15:14] <redfrog> is there a shortcut to kill a runaway process without opening a termnial?
[15:14] <bluebaron> grawity, i am in x right now on my lappy, i sshd into this device and apt-get install xorg.  now I'm trying to ssh -X smalllinuxdevice xclock and I'm getting display errors
[15:15] <FuneralChris> Leapo, wait
[15:15] <erUSUL> redfrog: you can use the xkill applet. add it to one of your pannels. or make a shortcut that runs xkill
[15:15] <Leapo> FuneralChris: What's up?
[15:15] <grawity> bluebaron: You don't need Xorg in it. Only on the laptop.
[15:16] <bluebaron> grawity, do you know why I would be getting cannot open display 11:0?
[15:16] <redfrog> thanks erUSUL. It seems a little confusing that there is no equivilaent to ctr-alt-del
[15:16] <FuneralChris> Leapo, you don't have hardware rendering, your system use software rendering (check glxinfo), and compiz wont work witz software rendering, so -> graphic card driver problem (not supported /bug)
[15:17] <grawity> bluebaron: try ssh'ing with the -v option, it might tell you.
[15:17] <bluebaron> okay i will
[15:17] <bluebaron> gotta disconnect to do that
[15:17] <Leapo> FuneralChris: That's odd, because I was just playing Quake 4 at full speed >_>
[15:17] <bluebaron> bbl
[15:17] <ljamisonii> I have a question...I just installed PlayOnLinux and when I run it, the program says that there is an update for it. I ran all the update commands but it does not update PlayOnLinux..any suggestions?
[15:17] <llutz> redfrog: kde uses ctrl-alt-esc to call xkill
[15:17] <erUSUL> redfrog: you can make that same shortcut run gnome-system-monitor
[15:17] <Sp0tter> grawity: do you have "X11Forwarding yes"  in your  sshd_config?
[15:17] <Dr_Willis> ljamisonii:  if somthing got installed system wide by the root user. then it needs to get 'updated' by the root user as well.
[15:17] <bluebaron> Sp0tter, that's me.... yes i do .. getting cannot open display 11.0
[15:18] <Sp0tter> ah, you have the same blue color names
[15:18] <FuneralChris> Leapo, yeah, could be a bug (eg. you have hardware rendering, and you can use it, but it doesnt show up), i had that on an old Sis graphic card
[15:18] <Sp0tter> stupid colors in irc
[15:18] <hhlp> redfrog system - administration - system monitor -- tag ... process and you can select the process to kill
[15:18] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Any way to just force Compiz to start anyway?
[15:18] <ljamisonii> Dr_Willis: Alright...and how would I do that/what terminal command would be used?
[15:18] <llutz> Sp0tter: reconfigure your client then
[15:18] <grawity> Sp0tter: His nick is like twice as long. (Also, if X forwarding was off, he'd probably get 'DISPLAY not set' or w/e.)
[15:18] <bluebaron> Sp0tter, i ggfn ... if you have a solution can you pm?  I will get it later.  meeting ...LATE!
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> ljamisonii:  ive no idea. I dont use playonlinux.
[15:19] <Sp0tter> ok
[15:19] <FuneralChris> Leapo, is it necessary for you to use compiz?
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> ljamisonii:  if you installed it via the package manager system and a 'repository' then you should use the repos to update it. its possible the updates may be a little slow getting to the repos.
[15:19] <Leapo> FuneralChris: It would be nice to have it working for once
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> ljamisonii:  the big question is  - 'how did you install it'
[15:20] <ljamisonii> Dr_Willis: I used the package manager system to install it
[15:20] <disappearedng> my g++ is showing up with /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_python
[15:20] <Dr_Willis> ljamisonii:  then i would ignore the update messages. untill the repos get updated for that program.
[15:20] <xcv> i jumped in mid conversation. before he quit, belak said he couldn't find alternate install on the cdimage server. looks like amd64 and i386 alternates are both there -- http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/
[15:20] <ljamisonii> Dr_Willis: Alrighty..thanks a lot! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong lol
[15:20] <FuneralChris> Leapo, you have to wait for a newer version of vmware (or they will never add support for that) (here is the proof: OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.6) mesa=software rendering
[15:21] <saykou> how do i update the apt-get stuff, it has a lot of old software, and i tried like sudo apt-get update and nothing, keeps me downloading old stuff
[15:21] <saykou> old versions
[15:21] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Which doesn't make any sense, because OpenGL applications are running at full speed in Ubuntu and under Windows
[15:21] <Leapo> (both inside virtual machines)
[15:21] <llutz> saykou: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:21] <FuneralChris> Leapo, or am i wrong?
[15:21] <saykou> llutz, will try
[15:21] <Leapo> FuneralChris: I haev no clue anymore, I've never had Ubuntu just "work" correctly...ever...
[15:22] <Leapo> i tried Kubuntu the other day, that was a nightmare
[15:22] <xtjacob> does anyone know why my whole computer freezes when I enable hardware virtualization in virtualbox?
[15:22] <llutz> saykou: you may read apt-get man-page to see what "update" actually does
[15:22] <FuneralChris> Leapo, hm... without vmware it would work
[15:22] <Leapo> what?
[15:23] <bullgard> [Karmic] What is the name of the loudspeaker icon in the notification area with 1, 2, or 3 sound waves to the right that shows the tooltip: "Output: 58%, -14,19 dB, Internal Audio Analog Stereo" when hovering over it?
[15:23] <FuneralChris> Leapo, what version of ubuntu do you use?
[15:23] <Leapo> I've been testing with 9.10
[15:23] <Callum|Asleep> happy new year, good night everyone...(4:22am on Jan 1, not good =/)
[15:23] <saykou> llutz, for example mozzilla thunderbird has already the 3.0 version, but i only downloads the 2.0 something version
[15:24] <llutz> saykou: find a repo for it or wait for next release to get those versions
[15:24] <FuneralChris> Leapo, yeah, its software rendering "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer" did you tried to update your system, should be a graphic card / Xorg bug
[15:24] <Leapo> Yeah, I updated
[15:25] <FuneralChris> Callum, 16:25 PM in germany :-p
[15:25] <mka> Leapo, I just joined the channel, can you state your problem?
[15:25] <KB1JWQ> ubottu: How do you tell people you're a bot?
[15:25] <Leapo> I'm gonna go with Xorg, because other OS's seem to be working with the video card just fine
[15:26] <Leapo> mka: VMWare 7 has full support for 3D acceleration. Can't get compiz to enable on it, and it's reporting software rendering in ubuntu (meanwhile, Windows is in another VM running on the same virtual hardware running OpenGL apps just fine)
[15:27] <FuneralChris> Leapo, the problem is the graphic card driver, imo, windows use proprietary grapih card drivers, so you dont have a problem in windows
[15:27] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Windows is using the driver supplied by VMWare
[15:28] <Leapo> So is Ubuntu
[15:28] <FuneralChris> Leapo, mom
[15:28] <Leapo> huh?
[15:28] <erUSUL> Leapo: well it all comes down to this. compiz does not support vmware's driver/card is as simple as that. maybe a newer version will support it
[15:29] <mka> Leapo, tried compiz-check? http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check
[15:29] <Leapo> erUSUL: Looks more like ubuntu isn't detecting it properly, at this point.
[15:29] <FuneralChris> Leapo, =moment
[15:30] <FuneralChris> erUSUL, compiz doesnt support software rendering, thats the problem, not compiz
[15:30] <Leapo> I could always try 9.04 and see if that works better. After all, 9.10 came out after VMWare 7
[15:30] <reinis> man, I've broken networking for my eeebuntu :(
[15:30] <reinis> nothing works
[15:30] <Leapo> FuneralChris: But it shouldn't be using software rendering, the hardware supports OpenGL >_>
[15:30] <FuneralChris> Leapo, or you could try debian
[15:31] <Leapo> Vanilla Debian?
[15:31] <mahen23> what day+time is it in india?
[15:31] <Pici> !ot | mahen23
[15:31] <FuneralChris> Leapo, and exactly thats the problem, you dont have hardware rendering in vmware workstation 8 + ubuntu 9.10
[15:31] <mahen23> what day+time is it in india?
[15:31] <nomnex> !ot
[15:31] <mka> mahen23, google that
[15:31] <ctmjr> Leapo: just because you can run opengl apps it does not mean it is being passed to the gpu i bet if you looked at your cpu usage in the windows vm it is running 100%
[15:31] <Leapo> FuneralChris: But the hardware supports it, so whats Ubuntu's problem?
[15:31] <netnull> erUSUL, i get errors while i try to compile gpart
[15:31] <bgjsl> funeralchris
[15:32] <FuneralChris> Leapo, Xorg bug / graphic card bug
[15:32] <nomnex> Pici, when do I know when you refer to a bot command or not (e.g !ot)?
[15:32] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, ?
[15:32] <phani> mahen:For india today is thursday and time is 8:30pm
[15:32] <bgjsl> leapo 9.04 is more stable than 9.10
[15:32] <reinis> ah, seems like I fixed lan at least, but wlan still is off
[15:32] <Leapo> ctmjr: Nope, OpenGL and Direct3D applications both run on the video card under Windows. 3D acceleration is working on the virtual hardware when the OS properly recognizes it...
[15:32] <phani> mahen23:For india today is thursday and time is 8:30pm
[15:32] <erUSUL> netnull: why are you compiling it ?
[15:32] <erUSUL> netnull: sudo aptitude install gpart
[15:32] <bgjsl> hi Funeralchris
[15:32] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, is 9.04 supported by ubuntu?
[15:32] <Leapo> ctmjr: That was one of the major features of VMWare 7, they added full acceleration
[15:33] <bgjsl> yes
[15:33] <Pici> nomnex: Er, everything that starts with a ! is interpreted as a bot command, see the message above from ubottu that was prefixed with mahen23's nick.
[15:33] <erUSUL> netnull: i linked the webpage so you can read the how to 8usage etc)
[15:33] <BluesKaj> netnull, sudo aptitude install gparted
[15:33] <reinis> how do I find out what interfaces are available to be added to /etc/network/interfaces?
[15:33] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, lts?
[15:33] <erUSUL> reinis: ifconfig -a
[15:33] <llutz> reinis: ifconfig -a
[15:33] <netnull> erUSUL, from live cd it says that there is no version candidate for gpart
[15:33] <Dr_Willis> !info gpart
[15:33] <bgjsl> of course chris
[15:33] <reinis> ah, thanks, erUSUL  and llutz
[15:34] <nomnex> Pici, why that does not work for me > !ot
[15:34] <erUSUL> netnull: what version of ubuntu ?
[15:35] <nomnex> !ot
[15:35] <netnull> erUSUL, 9.10 live cd
[15:35] <Pici> nomnex: Because ubottu has flood protection for factoids, it won't repeat it if someone just requested it.
[15:35] <bgjsl> guys in that case use 9.10 live cd
[15:35] <erUSUL> netnull: should be aviable ... you can dwonload the package from packages.ubuntu.com
[15:36] <bgjsl> and then compare with the old version
[15:36] <bgjsl> 9.04
[15:36] <nomnex> Pici, a listing of the bot commands on #ubuntu?
[15:36] <erUSUL> netnull: dl it and double clict it should install just fine
[15:36] <bullgard> [Karmic] What is the name of the loudspeaker icon in the notification area with 1, 2, or 3 sound waves to the right that shows the tooltip: "Output: 58%, -14,19 dB, Internal Audio Analog Stereo" when hovering over it?
[15:36] <Pici> nomnex: http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi , more bot help available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[15:37] <grawity> nomnex: /msg ubottu !bot - it accepts PMs
[15:37] <FuneralChris> Leapo, vmware use hardware emulation, right? so direct rendering wouldn't work. and compiz need (!) direct rendering, so that will never work, you can try an alternative to compiz
[15:37] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Nope, VMWare 7 uses hardware acceleration. It's all run on the video card.
[15:38] <Leapo> That's why 3D games and Aero suddenly work at full speed on Windows under VMWare 7
[15:38] <repnop> hardly full speed eh ;)
[15:38] <repnop> but much better than purely in software
[15:38] <FuneralChris> Leapo, so the linux grapih card drivers from vmware doenst support (or its a bug) hardware acceleration in linux
[15:38] <FuneralChris> *doesnt
[15:38] <Leapo> repnop: Crysis running at almost the same speed as it does on the host OS is close enough to "full speed" for me :-P
[15:38] <nomnex> grawity, I could finally make a friend ;-)
[15:40] <Witchy> if you are greek or cypriot pls talk to me prv thanx
[15:40] <ctmjr> Leapo: i would ask in #vmware or #compiz it really is not a ubuntu issue
[15:40] <FuneralChris> Leapo, and lot of websites tell me, compiz+vmware  is not a good idea
[15:40] <macman_> whats a good equiv for limewire for linux .. frostwire was no good
[15:40] <Leapo> FuneralChris: That's because they're all out of date and refer to VMWare 6.5
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> macman_:  and why was it no good?
[15:40] <Leapo> which DOES NOT have 3D acceleration beyond emulation
[15:40] <macman_> Dr_Willis: have you tried it ?
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> !p2p | macman_
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> macman_:  yes. I vd used it in the past, so was the wifel. I dont recall any issues
[15:41] <Leapo> ctmjr: Well, VMWare's virtual hardware obviously works fine, other OS's work fine...which puts it down to an issue with something in Ubuntu itself
[15:41] <macman_> Dr_Willis: mine doen't connect .. i have checked teh normal port settings / and also i have internet
[15:41] <Dr_Willis> macman_:  cant say taht ive ever had that issue.
[15:42] <netnull> erUSUL, scanning, lets cross fingers
[15:42] <hamid11771> hi all
[15:42] <erUSUL> netnull: good luck
[15:42] <bgjsl> hi hamid11771
[15:42] <FuneralChris> LEapo, pls read: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&p=116212#p110099
[15:42] <hamid11771> how can i re-activate my wireless card (9.10) i disabled networking, after that WIRELESS IS DESABLED
[15:43] <Leapo> FuneralChris: That's virtualbox...
[15:43] <bgjsl> hi hamid11771
[15:43] <bgjsl> just activate it again
[15:43] <FuneralChris> Leapo, but the post is about vmware
[15:43] <hamid11771> bgjsl HOW ? its INACTIVE
[15:43] <FuneralChris> Leapo, from November, 16.
[15:44] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, i think he doesnt know where to activate it again
[15:44] <bgjsl> yeah..you disactivated....now you gotta activate it again
[15:44] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Which says it should work...at least, as far as VMWare's driver goes.
[15:45] <bgjsl> go to network connection and then activate it again---
[15:45] <Cyber_Akuma> hello
[15:46] <ctmjr> Leapo: it was a suggestion, to help you find an answer. you are running a os in a virtual environment how can you blame the os for your vm's inability to run it properly
[15:46] <FuneralChris> Leapo, it says something about "kernel 2.6.33" which isn't released in ubuntu 9.10, and it says something about "the kernel driver and DRI/X.Org state trackers are considered "beta quality" for the time being."
[15:46] <junos> Is it possible to switch back and forth from the UNR desktop to the traditional desktop?
[15:46] <xcv> Leapo: I looked over the release notes, http://www.vmware.com/support/ws7/doc/releasenotes_ws7.html -- I didn't see anything about the advanced graphics for ubuntu, just for windows. In any event, it says it supports ubuntu 9.04; have you tested with that release to see if you get the same behavior?
[15:46] <bgjsl> thanks chris
[15:46] <junos> on karmic?
[15:46] <Leapo> xcv: I'm downloading 9.04 now. Already blew away 9.10
[15:46] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, lol, np
[15:46] <bgjsl> leapo good decision
[15:47] <bgjsl> that is my friend
[15:47] <nonameNN> #ubuntu+1
[15:47] <FuneralChris> Leapo, not a good idea
[15:47] <Leapo> ctmjr: It's easy to blame the OS. The virtual hardware presents acceleration to other OS's, and it works properly, which means the problem lies with something in Ubuntu itself.
[15:47] <zeus> i just installed ubuntu 9.10 im unable to install the updates while the update notifier says tht things are supposed to be installed
[15:47] <bgjsl> just blow away anything that can not work pretty fine
[15:47] <bgjsl> haha
[15:47] <bgjsl> good choice
[15:47] <irlolcopter_> many people using linuxMint?
[15:48] <erUSUL> !mint
[15:48] <irlolcopter_> its stopped working for me
[15:48] <erUSUL> zeus: error messages ?
[15:48] <bgjsl> irlolcopter
[15:48] <irlolcopter_> ah, sorry
[15:48] <bgjsl> Iused it
[15:48] <bgjsl> why?
[15:48] <FuneralChris> Leapo, i bet ubuntu 10.04 testing is working (or just trie 2.6.33 kernel)
[15:48] <Leapo> FuneralChris: It said it should be ready by Christmas, which already passed :-P
[15:48] <irlolcopter_> my usb key suddenly stopped booting properly
[15:48] <irlolcopter_> i need to install it again
[15:48] <irlolcopter_> but i wanna retain my old settings and downloads
[15:48] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Think I should stop my download and grab 10.04?
[15:49] <FuneralChris> Leapo, mozilla also said they will release firefox 4 earlier then end of 2010
[15:49] <FuneralChris> Leapo, no
[15:49] <Leapo> ...
[15:49] <zeus> erUSUL: it says thte the package is already installed while its not and my kde crashes
[15:49] <Leapo> But you just said you bet it was working
[15:49] <FuneralChris> Leapo, i think you should compile 2.6.33 kernel, or use that from ubuntu 10.04
[15:49] <Cyber_Akuma> My friend has shown interest in dual-booting his system with Linux, he has a 2.8GHZ Pentium 4 system with 512 megs of ram, while this does fit within the minimum system specs of Ubuntu, would you recommend he run 9.10 on such an old system or go with xubuntu instead? And how big would you think he should make his swap partition? 512 megs? 1GB? 2GB?
[15:49] <irlolcopter_> !mintsupport
[15:50] <irlolcopter_> thats the one
[15:50] <bgjsl> leapo download 9.04
[15:50] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, not a good idea
[15:50] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, drivers are not in old 9.04 kernel, but in new 10.04 kernel
[15:51] <DJones> Cyber_Akuma: That system should be fine running Ubuntu, my laptop only has 512Mb ram & doesn't have any problems, for swap, I'd suggest 1gb
[15:51] <bgjsl> well tell me chris we know 9.04 runs good enough and trying to change into unknown ubuntu version
[15:51] <IdleOne> Cyber_Akuma: 1GB swap should be fine and he can install ubuntu and try it out, if it's to slow for him he can alsways sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[15:51] <Cyber_Akuma> Great, thanks :)
[15:51] <FuneralChris> Leapo, you have to compile, latest kernel (of luciid) is 2.6.32
[15:52] <e01> hallo
[15:52] <Cyber_Akuma> Oh.... I almost forgot, how much hdd space should I set aside to install ubuntu on?
[15:52] <bgjsl> hallo e01
[15:52] <IdleOne> Cyber_Akuma: 10GB
[15:52] <e01> i had a problem with ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix, and my dell 9 mini
[15:52] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, he got driver problems, old version of ubuntu wouldnt fix
[15:52] <macman_> meh Dr_Willis i will just boot into windows
[15:52] <Leapo> FuneralChris: Sounds like I should just wait for Ubuntu get get this stuff sorted out -_-
[15:52] <xcv> FuneralChris, bgjsl, Leapo: I think 9.04 is a worthy test -- that's the version that vmware explicitly supports. I think the 10.04 alpha would be a good test too, just to see if it solves the problem.
[15:52] <FuneralChris> Leapo, wait for 2.6.33 final release
[15:52] <bgjsl> Ok I get it ....Chris
[15:53] <FuneralChris> xcv, i dont think so
[15:53] <Leapo> *sigh*
[15:53] <e01> the sounds are really bad, similar to some scratched, every time when some app try to make sound notification it sounds something like 'tghgthtgthtg' and then play the real sound
[15:53] <Cyber_Akuma> thanks
[15:53] <IdleOne> Cyber_Akuma: 10Gb is a more then enough for the install but a minimum if you ask me
[15:53] <darksifer> hi everyone
[15:53] <theadmin> Hello. May I ask what is a decent PPPoE tool for Ubuntu?
[15:53] <e01> is this problem something normal for my version of ubuntu or not?
[15:53] <bgjsl> e01 check dependencies
[15:53] <Leapo> Since when does updating a video driver require a whole new kernel? This sounds nuts... lets see if 9.04 works
[15:54] <zeus> im havin serious trouble
[15:54] <theadmin> zeus: What is?
[15:54] <junos> Is it possible to switch back and forth from the UNR desktop in karmic to the traditional desktop?
[15:54] <Cyber_Akuma> Ok, ill check how big his hdd is and try to adjust for that, with 10+1gb being the binimum space ill set aside when installing xp, thanks
[15:54] <jiohdi> leapo, the drivers are part of the kernel, so they are recomplied into it

[15:55] <manjula> can some one tell me how do i find out whether my sound system use alsa or pulse ? on ubuntu 9.10
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> junos:  yes it is.. and no i dont remember how. I recall the maximus program being  needed to be manually disabled.
[15:55] <theadmin> sunil: Didn't we... Unmount those partitions, starting from 8 and to the end.
[15:55] <bcj> P1R1: Sync in what way?
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> manjula:  gnome uses Pulse audio and Pulse uses alsa. by default
[15:56] <netnull> erUSUL, its normal that gpart is still scanning disk without any result?
[15:56] <mka> sunil1, do as instructed
[15:56] <uiuiui> hey, do i have to load a module after installing bridge-utils?
[15:56] <Leapo> jiohdi: That's one of the things other OS's have been trying to get far away from. Drivers that closely to the kernal can severely harm the stability of the OS if they have a problem.
[15:56] <P1R1> bcj: If I update a file in one computer, then the file should be updated in the other
[15:56] <sunil1> can you expand still further
[15:56] <darksifer> i cant install libiphone-0.9.4.  see http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7f5ce17
[15:56] <darksifer> plz help me
[15:56] <junos> Dr_Willis: No easy switch?
[15:56] <darksifer> have been trying since morning
[15:56] <P1R1> bcj: And if I make a file in one, this files should be copied to the other
[15:56] <bcj> P1R1: Ah.  That's a bit more complex than your average backup.  I wouldn't know where to start.
[15:56] <manjula> Dr_Willis: ok in 9.10 there is no etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file. any suggestion where i might be able to find that file or similar file ?
[15:57] <erUSUL> netnull: well i do not have used it much; (good for me i guess) so i dunno
[15:57] <bcj> P1R1: You could just do periodic updates, or write a cron job to check the directories you want and copy the files.
[15:57] <jiohdi> leapo, while that is true, it also makes for tight and efficient coding when done right, so the system is not a memory pig
[15:57] <theadmin> sunil: "sudo umount /dev/sda8 && sudo umount /dev/sda9 && sudo umount /dev/sda10"... etc, keep adding to the number until you've written all the partitions
[15:57] <bcj> I'd google for cron and see if that meets your needs.
[15:57] <mka> darksifer, did you do as instructed?
[15:57] <P1R1> bcj: Thanks, I will look at that
[15:57] <Dr_Willis> !find alsa-base
[15:57] <Dr_Willis> manjula:  not really. Ive never had to tweak the sound system much
[15:58] <darksifer> mka: yes i suppose so... i did get some troubles
[15:58] <Cyber_Akuma> IdleOne: yeah I know I need to install windows first, I just needed to know how much space to set aside as unpartitioned when creating the xp ntfs partition
[15:58] <mka> darksifer, it says you must do this: ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/non-standard-path/python/lib"
[15:58] <bcj> P1R1: I believe you can also add callbacks to given files/directories, such that you can perform an action based on an access to those files, but I don't know much about that - it might be a DBUS thing.
[15:58] <bcj> I would stick to the script.
[15:58] <craig1> i cant run cups, but its installed
[15:58] <mka> darksifer, what troubles?
[15:58] <zeus> whwn ever i try to install any application it says tht its already installed and kde crashes
[15:58] <darksifer> mka, i get the same error
[15:59] <sunil1> the out put of "sudo umount /dev/sda8" is "umount: /dev/sda8: not mounted"
[15:59] <Anonym> Hello everyone
[15:59] <Leapo> jiohdi: Resources are cheap, I prefer a more robust and stable system. An OS that can completely crash if a 3rd party driver is an extremely fragile thing. Meanwhile, other OS's can have fairly deeply integrated drivers like video drivers crash...and simply recovery from it by restarting the driver. Heck, seperating the drivers out makes it so robust, you can swap out drivers while the...
[15:59] <Leapo> ...system is running and just keep working (no reboot needed).
[15:59] <theadmin> sunil: Maybe you don't need to unmount this one then, just unmount those that are mounted.

[16:08] <FuneralChris> wtf
[16:08] <FuneralChris> bgjsl, e01, ?
[16:09] <grawity> subito: What kind of fonts are those? .sfd looks like a FontForge file - not yet an actual font.
[16:09] <jiohdi> leapo, when you find the perfect operating system, you let the rest of us know :)
[16:09] <subito> grawity: i've downloaded the paktype font to try different arabic fonts on scribus
[16:09] <uiuiui> hey, do i have to load a module after installing bridge-utils?
[16:09] <e01> FuneralChris, i am confused too

[16:09] <Leapo> jiohdi: Would I look like a massive fanboy if I said "windows already has that issue sorted"?
[16:10] <Leapo> :-P
[16:10] <FuneralChris> goose, its 2009 in germany :-p
[16:10] <uiuiui> ifconfig br0 up does not work, and it is set up properly in /etc/network/interfaces file
[16:10] <theadmin> Leapo: Windows is not on-topic here... and there never were any issues with it :P
[16:10] <jiohdi> leapo, one issue sorted does not make it less of a pig
[16:10] <subito> grawity: http://tinyurl.com/yfzpuc5
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> sunil1:   i tend to boot with a live cd befor messing with partitions. that way everything is unmounted
[16:10] <bgjsl> e01
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> sunil1:  or use the 'fdisk' command to delete them then reboot. It dosent care if its mounted or not.
[16:10] <FuneralChris> windows is an issue
[16:10] <Leapo> theadmin: Hay, he asked >_>
[16:10] <belak> Ok, how can I enable my nvidia drivers if jockey isn't working?

[16:10] <Letterbomb05> Hi, I'm trying to use crontabs in Ubuntu Server Edition (8.10), however, whenever I use the crontab command I get "-bash: crontab: command not found". Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
[16:11] <grawity> Letterbomb05: either a) cron is not installed, or b) the 'crontab' command is not in $PATH
[16:11] <grawity> Letterbomb05: So first, dpkg -l | grep cron
[16:11] <FuneralChris> belak, download latest drivers from nvidia.com, stop kdm and run file
[16:11] <e01> FuneralChris, r u sure
[16:11] <theadmin> Does anyone know whether it's a good idea to stay on LTS releases? Or is it better to move on with normal ones?
[16:11] <Leapo> jiohdi: I really don't see how you can consider Windows a pig with all the features they pack in O_o
[16:11] <e01> i think that in germany now is 19 o'clock
[16:11] <Dr_Willis> belak:  or just sudo apt-get install whatever-the-nidia-glx package name is for yiour system
[16:12] <grawity> subito: I think you need to download the .ttf files instead.
[16:12] <belak> FuneralChris: I was able to install the nvidia-glx-173 package... I just need to enable it
[16:12] <theadmin> e01: Can't be, it's 19 in russia :D we have 2 hour difference.
[16:12] <sunil1> how to use fdisk command to delete a partion "/dev/sda9"??
[16:12] <Letterbomb05> one moment grawity.
[16:12] <bgjsl> e01 deutsch?
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  depends on what you are doing with the system
[16:12] <subito> grawity: ok, what should i do with them?
[16:12] <jiohdi> leapo, its a memory pig that requires a lot more hardware than I need for what I do :)
[16:12] <belak> Unless it does it automatically without an xorg.conf?
[16:12] <e01> bgjsl, bulgarian
[16:12] <bgjsl> that is cool
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> subito:  run 'sudo fdisk /dev/sda' and read its help menu. use the 'd' for delete. and 'w' to write changes to disk.. be CAREFULL with fdisk
[16:12] <Letterbomb05> grawity: got nothing from that command.
[16:12] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Common things... not that I need extreme stability. Just a regular desktop user.
[16:12] <grawity> subito: The .ttf files go into your ~/.fonts/ directory
[16:12] <reinis> why can't I scroll the gnome terminal up with my mouse
[16:12] <e01> The_Thing, my mistake, i mean 17
[16:12] <grawity> Letterbomb05: Install cron, then.
[16:12] <Leapo> jiohdi: Eh? Windows 7 runs great on hardware that's been around since XP was released (that would be 10 year old hardware). How's that a pig?
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  may as well play with the new goodies then
[16:13] <bgjsl> no mistake friend
[16:13] <subito> grawity: i've installed ttf-paktype
[16:13] <ljamisonii> hello again all
[16:13] <bgjsl> nobody is perfect here
[16:13] <Pici> !offtopic | Leapo jiohdi
[16:13] <FuneralChris> belak, this driver is too old, you can also install latest from repos. belak, i think ubuntu got a special thing calld "hardware drivers" (search in start menu), you can just click on "enable" in that tool
[16:13] <grawity> subito: then it's done
[16:13] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Now am on 9.10, but wonder whether it's a good idea to move on, after 10.04... well, thanks for clearing up
[16:13] <bcj> Leapo: Compare that to Xubuntu that runs great on 15 year old hardware ;)
[16:13] <Letterbomb05> Ah sorry grawity, I didnt actually realise cron had to be installed, I thought it came as default. New to using Ubuntu Server, my bad.
[16:13] <subito> grawity: but i don't have a ~/.fonts directory
[16:13] <belak> FuneralChris: I was trying that and it isn't doing anything.
[16:13] <bgjsl> we just try to help us
[16:13] <xcv> belak: did you find the alternate iso you were looking for earlier?
[16:13] <grawity> subito: Then create one.
[16:13] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  I alwasy play with teh latest release.  Why stay behind. :)
[16:13] <belak> xcv: yeah, I just used a mirror.
[16:14] <grawity> subito: But if you just installed ttf-paktype from repositories, you don't need anything more.
[16:14] <FuneralChris> Leapo, microsoft have ne windows release in a couple of years, ubuntu got two releases in one year
[16:14] <Leapo> bcj: People have booted Windows 7 on a Pentium II with 96mb of RAM...that's Windows 95 era...

[16:14] <subito> grawity: right, thanks
