[00:01] <zykotick9> pentagon: if it's an actual ISO, then you don't need "clone" features... just sayin'
[00:03] <pentagon> zykotick9: so i should be able to verify the cd against the standard md5
[00:03] <zykotick9> pentagon: ya.  iso is easy ;)  cat can do it.
[00:03] <niargh> zodiak: thx, will have a look.
[00:04] <pentagon> what are the standard md5sums
[00:04] <zykotick9> !md5sums | pentagon
[00:04] <pentagon> someone put them up in here for 2 pont verification
[00:06] <pentagon> thisaway i know im not getting md5sums replaced on my http line
[00:07] <Cong> Is possible to switch the side of where files on the desktop are put on a paste command and created?
[00:10] <pentagon> will someone paste the ubuntu i386 server iso md5sum in this channel please
[00:11] <Cong> How will you know it's correct?
[00:11] <Pici> !hashes | pentagon
[00:11] <mmnicolas> Cong: it will match the md5 from his iso ?
[00:12] <pentagon> because the dns servers could be sending me to bad hash pages
[00:14] <Cong> mmnicolas, why do you write the question mark out, with a space like that. is that correct grammer?
[00:14] <pentagon> will someone paste the ubuntu i386 server iso md5sum in this channel please
[00:15] <mmnicolas> Cong: I'm french
[00:15] <Cong> mmnicolas, doesn't mean a thing to me
[00:18] <ikonia> pentagon: you can get it from the ubuntu.com website
[00:21] <VlanZ> can i reset an USB controller on ubuntu w/out restarting the whole system?
[00:22] <mmnicolas> VlanZ: man modprobe
[00:25] <alexandros> hello guys
[00:25] <alexandros> i just started using lubuntu
[00:25] <blackshirt> hello
[00:25] <alexandros> and im curious if i can add a shortcut on the desktop for a website
[00:27] <DarkStar1> hello has anyone here managed to install courier mailserver on 12.04?
[00:27] <chris92> alexandros: did u try to do a right-click on the desktop and see if there is sth like "Create an URL-Link"?
[00:28] <DarkStar1> Also is cgi interface enabled by default in ubuntu?
[00:28] <Glycan> I'm trying to install BURG. add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/burg as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Burg gives "Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)"
[00:28] <ikonia> DarkStar1: cgi interface ?what
[00:28] <Glycan> (with a python traceback before that)
[00:28] <DarkStar1> in apache web server
[00:29] <ikonia> DarkStar1: there is an apache package for ubuntu with all modules available
[00:29] <VlanZ> mmnicolas: is it normal that  modprobe -r usbhid  hangs the USB controller?
[00:29] <DarkStar1> So that's a yes then as I installed from the repo
[00:29] <DarkStar1>  :)
[00:33] <stepnjump> ok ikonia, sorry for not getting back to you earlier. Well, unless one might be a whizz, it's not obvious to know how to tell the distro to ignore the files it wants to download. It has a mind of it's own
[00:34] <ikonia> stepnjump: you DON'T TELL IT TO IGNORE - IT NEEDS THEM !!! THEY ARE NOT THERE
[00:35] <ikonia> stepnjump: how many times can I say this "it cannot run the upgrade because the files it needs are not on the remote server"
[00:35] <stepnjump> ok...mmm so what is your suggestion?
[00:35] <ikonia> either change to a mirror with the files or contact the mirror owner
[00:36] <stepnjump> I get that... but if the system needs them and obviously cannot download them because they are not there, so what is your suggested alternative
[00:36] <ikonia> I've just told you the alternative
[00:36] <stepnjump> ok thanks then for your help... I'll look into that
[00:36] <ikonia> either switch to a server that has the files, or contact the mirror owner to get the files put back
[00:37] <Richard_Cavell> Guys I'm on 12.04 running from USB.  I have a parallel port installed on my computer and I want to know whether Ubuntu recognizes it.  How do I tell?
[00:37] <gry> lspci?
[00:37] <KM0201> Richard_Cavell: something as old as a parallel, i'd say probably, i take it you're trying to get a printer or scanner working?
[00:38] <KM0201> gry: lspci will only show devices on the pci bus... don't think a parallel port runs there (it might though)
[00:38] <Richard_Cavell> more complicated than that though KM0201 I'm trying to bit bang the parallel port with avrdude
[00:38] <Richard_Cavell> My parallel port is actually on a PCI card that is plugged into my PCI slot
[00:38] <KM0201> hmm, it might show up in lspci then
[00:38] <Richard_Cavell> I can see 5:02.0 Communitcation controller: Device 5372:6872
[00:39] <KM0201> bit bang parallel port with avvrdude?   i hope something got lost in the translation there, because that makes no sense.
[00:39] <Richard_Cavell> KM0201: that's what it is mate
[00:39] <DarkStar1> has anyone here managed to install courier mailserver on 12.04? I am having issues with the webadmin interface
[00:39] <Richard_Cavell> KM0201: avrdude can communicate directly over the parallel port with an AVR chip to program it
[00:39] <KM0201> DarkStar1: you might try asking in ubuntu-server
[00:39] <Richard_Cavell> but my Windows 7 drivers for the parallel port aren't signed so Win 7 won't recognize it (it's cheap Chinese junk)
[00:39] <KM0201> ic... i have no idea on that one, dunno.
[00:40] <DarkStar1> KM0201: thx
[00:40] <ikonia> DarkStar1: webmin won't work with ubuntu
[00:40] <ikonia> !webmin | DarkStar1
[00:40] <Richard_Cavell> is there a way I can see whether lpt1 exists?
[00:40] <DarkStar1> ikonia: not webmin. webadmin
[00:40] <gry> !info webadmin
[00:40] <ikonia> DarkStar1: my apologies
[00:40] <DarkStar1> which is a courier addon
[00:44] <yekoms> webmin works fine for me. but i only use it to edit mysql remotely..
[00:44] <KM0201> not webmin, webadmin
[00:44] <yekoms> ive never heard of webadmin.
[00:44] <KM0201> because it's something to manage a courier mail server
[00:47] <DarkStar1> yup. I install it and it tells me that cgi may not be configured for the webserver (which it is) or I didn't read the install file regarding it (which I did)

[02:41] <seednode> showdon: I know a bit about it.
[02:42] <msx> jt__: hellopat_
[02:42] <Demonarc> what kind of backtrack question did you have?
[02:42] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: What up man!  :)
[02:42] <jt__> I am new and probably will need some kind of help lol
[02:42] <showdon> well i tried installing it and it freezes on a black screen after typing startx in the command prompt
[02:42] <NiteRain> Hey ClientAlive
[02:43] <ClientAlive> aye
[02:43] <jt__> is there a linux mint irc channel? does anyone know?
[02:43] <MonkeyDust> !mint
[02:43] <Demonarc> did you run it in a virtual drive?
[02:43] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: what u up to tonight?
[02:43] <showdon> no, hard drive boot
[02:43] <NiteRain> installed desura
[02:43] <Demonarc> so you ave nothing else installed?
[02:44] <Demonarc> h*
[02:44] <jt__> ah dang mint, I want to switch to ubuntu but I cannot stand the desktop
[02:44] <ClientAlive> right on
[02:44] <ClientAlive> I'll have to google what that is
[02:44] <jt__> what would be the
[02:44] <showdon> well i have mint and ubuntu installed
[02:44] <MonkeyDust> jt__  you can use another desktop if you want, unity is just the default
[02:44] <chris92> jt__ did you think about using another desktop environment like xfce or kde? u dont need to use unity
[02:44] <jt__> what would be the best ubuntu to use?
[02:44] <Benn> Anyone want to look at this crash report? Muon Software Center crashes right after I open it, or as it open. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2064628
[02:44] <chris92> jt__: depends on which desktop environment you prefer
[02:45] <jt__> i miss gnome 2 is there a desktop like that?
[02:45] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: ahh, something about getting games
[02:45] <chris92> jt__ probably XFCE
[02:45] <Demonarc> install one jesus lol
[02:45] <NiteRain> LOL yup
[02:45] <ClientAlive> right on
[02:45] <MonkeyDust> jt__  fallback/classic is very similar to gnome2, i use it too
[02:45] <bizhanMona> hi does ubuntu supports systemd? Thx
[02:45] <jt__> ok I will have to try that
[02:45] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: how is everything going with unison?
[02:46] <Demonarc> i have a  question with wpa2
[02:46] <ClientAlive> MonkeyDust: Yes it is, I was stuck on it the other night and finally got full gnome working
[02:46] <ClientAlive> errr
[02:46] <scath> <----- Gentoo convert
[02:46] <ClientAlive> I'm basically stuck and don't know what else to try
[02:46] <Smackbook> i might screwed, i was trying to change my user to login without a password, so I went to the User accounts thing and first i thought i had to change the password so I typed the same password into the old and new/confirm password boxes, but then i realized the "login without password" option is a dropbox at the top.  So I dropped it down to "login without password" which greyed out the password boxes I had typed into and clicked ok.  now
[02:46] <Benn> jt__, I like Kubuntu because its interface is more list-based. Ubuntu's Unity uses icons.
[02:46] <chris92> Demonarc: just ask your question ^^
[02:47] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: stuck on the gnome side or unison side?
[02:47] <Demonarc> where can i can some advanced wireless help at?
[02:47] <blackshirt> demonarc,what is your wifi card?
[02:47] <chris92> Demonarc: for the last time, just ask your question in this channel, please
[02:47] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: with unison. I was trying to do a relatively advanced setup (and I'm just learning it). Seems it should have worked but in the end I get errors w/ everything I try.
[02:49] <pooltable> help need a good cd rip program ??
[02:49] <Demonarc> i need to know when the wpa pin is used? is it only when people touch there one time security on their router?
[02:49] <scath> Hey all.  I'm used to compiling everything with all sorts of march/mcpu tweaks and so on.  I know it doesn't matter most of the time, but for things like POVRay and various codecs I'd like to at least turn on SSE and so on.  What's the best method of going about installing source packages and going from there?
[02:49] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: Basically, I made a "common" file that I wanted to put prefs that would be included in all my little unique .prf files. And I created a default.prf (because I beleve you have to with that type of set up). Really my motivation to all this was wanting to set up diff3 for doing merges.
[02:49] <folorn> could anyone help im having some issues unpacking 2 jar files :problem is they wont upack well atleast 1 of  them wont.
[02:50] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: I think it's because I misunderstood something about diff3 and how it works. I tested it (diff3) manually on some test files and it works though.
[02:50] <folorn> ive tried all sorts of combinations of jar -xcf etc and it still wont and its got the make file in it
[02:50] <folorn> anyone spare some quick help? ;)
[02:51] <ddtge> linux supprt ir receiver?
[02:51] <blackshirt> folorn,maybe has been corrupted
[02:51] <blackshirt> ddtge, ir was old thing
[02:51] <jaker333> is there a way to shutdown a program after a period of unactivity?
[02:52] <Demonarc> is there any "security" channels?
[02:52] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: are we talking about the same file you put the two roots in one from your system and the other from the remote system and then add the paths you want to keep insync?
[02:52] <ddtge> blackshirt, i mean IR remote control....
[02:53] <MonkeyDust> Demonarc  type /join ##security
[02:53] <folorn>  thats the file i need extracted the shagg-0.2.0.src.jar
[02:53] <ClientAlive> jaker333: egrep can find the PID of the program based on it's name then you can kill the process based on the PID. (from the terminal). Not sure the exact details/ commands though.'
[02:54] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: It would be difficult for me to explain by typing but there are three small files I could paste that pertty much show what I was after.
[02:55] <MonkeyDust> Demonarc  there's also #wireless and #linux-wireless
[02:57] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: paste.ubuntu.com/1250882/   paste.ubuntu.com/1250883/   paste.ubuntu.com/1250884/

[03:14] <UidX> Ubuntu is considered as a typographical error lol
[03:15] <lobhater> Uidx: why?
[03:15] <ikonia> this has nothing to do with this channe
[03:15] <ikonia> channel
[03:15] <ikonia> it's a support channel
[03:15] <UidX> i dont know that pic underlined Ubuntu
[03:19] <mark06> none of one and a half thousand people knows this?
[03:21] <lobhater> how is everyone tonight?
[03:21] <blackshirt> morning on my place :d
[03:21] <ikonia> #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support chatter please.
[03:21] <gry> lobhater, good thanks, how can we help you?
[03:22] <zykotick9> lobhater: do you have a support question?  if so ask.  see ikonia's msg above if you what to "chat".

[03:24] <Pinkamena_D> putting {swap} didnt work.
[03:24] <mark06> ikonia: that's a technical question, because there's a technical reason why it doesn't look the same as in Ubuntu
[03:25] <mark06> ikonia: what channel would have an answer?
[03:25] <ikonia> no idea
[03:25] <ikonia> and it's a matter of opinion, I don't think it looks better
[03:25] <mark06> ok :(
[03:25] <mark06> well, replace better with different

[04:50] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, no
[04:50] <Smackbook> thats what i'm trying now but now i'm getting dpkg returned an error code (1)
[04:50] <|Anthony|> xbmc is in the repos
[04:50] <lobhater> Smackbook: good to know. just like to know what works so I can pass it on to the next person. best of luck!
[04:50] <Smackbook> sure thanks

[04:51] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: thats how i installed it
[04:52] <Tonvin> hi,how to add passwd in hgrc,when using mercurial VCS? eg.ssh://username@ip:port//var/hgrepository/project_name
[04:52] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, just install the xbmc package. it will pull in what ever else it needs
[04:52] <Smackbook> i have xbmc installed... just installing it doesnt make it start on boot
[04:52] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, right. there is a next step
[04:52] <Smackbook> it does give you a user session for XBMC to log into which loads xbmc-standalone
[04:52] <Smackbook> oh ok
[04:53] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, first make sure it runs
[04:53] <|Anthony|> as a normal app
[04:53] <codemaniac> PCI7250-Help: sorry i was not here
[04:53] <Smackbook> it does...
[04:54] <codemaniac> PCI7250-Help: when you invoke gcc with -Wall option it produces all kinda warnings
[04:54] <codemaniac> they are not errors
[04:54] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, ok. are you going to use this machine for anything besides xbmc?
[04:55] <Smackbook> no
[04:56] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, ok. do make sure you have an additional non-admin user account created.

[05:00] <Parabola> any help would be fantastic :)
[05:00] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, find the section that starts with [Seat:0]
[05:01] <|Anthony|> Parabola, i think i read a bug report on launchpad for that
[05:02] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, please pastebin that section
[05:02] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, or the whole file. which ever is easier for you

[05:04] <Parabola> |Anthony|: i'm kind of dissapointed that this made it past any QA, you only have 3 options for video, and dual displays isnt uncommon.
[05:04] <Parabola> its like printing not working, and no one noticed :)
[05:05] <|Anthony|> Parabola, personally, i don't use twinview. i've never like the results. i prefer to have each screen be separate
[05:05] <codemaniac> PCI7250-Help: does the compile been able to produce .o files ?
[05:05] <Parabola> |Anthony|: will that fix the issue?
[05:05] <kuhwallskee> How can I modify what the dash-home displays???

[05:05] <Parabola> seperate x sessions for each display
[05:06] <Parabola> i'm saying, will that fix the stupid (and useless) osx ripoff sidebar from grabbin my mouse :)

[05:06] <Parabola> ty mate
[05:06] <Parabola> i think the nvidia control panel tool will do that for you though

[05:07] <|Anthony|> Parabola, personally, i ditched mainline ubuntu for xubuntu since the gnome3 / unity bs

[05:11] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: http://pastebin.com/Fp7cur4b  i was already trying this, as far as I can tell this is what I was supposed to do

[05:11] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, reboot and enjoy
[05:11] <pentagon> How come the ssl cert foir ubuntu.com says run by unknown ?
[05:12] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, or you could restart lightdm
[05:13] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: the problem is this isn't working.  its still booting to gnome-classic when I hve the user set to 'Automatic Login'
[05:14] <Smackbook> or if I turn Automatic Login off it just defaults to XBMC for the session at thelogin screen
[05:14] <Smackbook> but i still have to go through the step of logging in
[05:14] <|Anthony|> try it with an actual [Seat:0] section
[05:15] <|Anthony|> did you reboot after the edit, or just restart lightdm?
[05:16] <pentagon> Has anyone on this channel with a verified gpg
[05:17] <|Anthony|> i haven't done that yet pentagon
[05:17] <|Anthony|> keep meaning to
[05:19] <Smackbook> i have been rebooting "viewer" is the non admin user btw, whats the [Seat:0] thing I just try copying everything from seat defaults to a new section?
[05:20] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, yeah basically
[05:20] <|Anthony|> let me run to the tv and review my lightdm.conf file to make sure here
[05:20] <codemaniac> pentagon: are you trying to connect to IRC with ssl?
[05:21] <codemaniac> pentagon: if you do not have the certificates installed you can have them now.

[05:25] <bitvector2> Anyone have an idea why DNS resolution from chrome would be so slow in Ubuntu in a VM?  I've tried eliminating dnsmasq and it is the same slowness.  The host OS and other devices on the network are fast.
[05:25] <pentagon> How do I verify the signing keys ?
[05:25] <maicod> where are the config files stored that associate file types to a program?
[05:26] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, open /home/viewer/.dmrc
[05:26] <bitvector2> nsswitch.conf and resolv.conf conf are the same across machines - apparmor is set to only complain - anything else to check?
[05:27] <pentagon> doesnt ubuntu have a gpg key?
[05:27] <codemaniac> pentagon: you mean the ubuntu iso file ?
[05:28] <pentagon> I mean the organisation.
[05:28] <pentagon> WHo compiles ubuntu ?
[05:28] <pentagon> Where is it compiled?
[05:29] <codemaniac> pentagon: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto
[05:29] <bitvector2> jeeze pentagon what next - do you need to validate the compiler?
[05:29] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: should i change that session to xbmc?  its gnome-classic
[05:29] <|Anthony|> yes
[05:30] <|Anthony|> apparently .dmrc overrides lightdm

[05:31] <|Anthony|> I'd like some feedback :)
[05:31] <pentagon> codemaniac: so are the torrent downloads different from what is on the mirrors ?
[05:31] <pentagon> because I dont even need to run an md5 when the filesize is different
[05:32] <e66> I am sharing internet from eth1 to eth2. I also use dnsmasq for dns caching. Now if I enable Internet sharing I have to stop the existing dnsmasq instance. network manager starts its own dnsmasq instance. But this dnsmasq has no dns caching options. So my dns query takes more time. How can I change the dnsmasq or network manager so when network manager starts the dnsmasq it also support dns caching? Sorry for the long question.
[05:33] <codemaniac> pentagon: if you dont trust your download the you need to verify it
[05:33] <codemaniac> the steps are in the above link.'
[05:33] <|Anthony|> pentagon, that last statement tells us that you shouldn't even concern your self with signing keys
[05:33] <pentagon> |Anthony|: how so ?
[05:34] <pentagon> Can you say something intelligent ?
[05:34] <|Anthony|> pentagon, 2 completely different files can be exactly the same size
[05:35] <pentagon> You have it backwards |Anthony| did you take your meds ?
[05:35] <|Anthony|> i'm done feeding trolls. i'm too tired to care
[05:35] <pentagon> 2 of the same files cannot have different file sizes
[05:35] <pentagon> seems like every place i download it from it is slightly different
[05:36] <pentagon> |Anthony|: go to sleep
[05:37] <|Anthony|> yeah.. i read that as "isn't different"
[05:37] <|Anthony|> heh
[05:37] <pentagon> well at least you admit mistakes.. applauds

[05:38] <|Anthony|> waiting to make sure Smackbook has xbmc working
[05:38] <ramprasadgk> where do i get complete ubuntu package
[05:38] <ramprasadgk> not live CD
[05:38] <pentagon> i think theres some jackass screwing me over
[05:38] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: i just rebooted and tried it a second time, when I reboot it still reboots to gnome-classic, and changes .dmrc back
[05:38] <pentagon> download 1 wrong iso and install it and you can never get out of VM prision
[05:38] <pentagon> id like to break some legs
[05:38] <|Anthony|> argh
[05:39] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: i might just work on this tomorrow
[05:39] <|Anthony|> heh
[05:39] <|Anthony|> i know the feeling
[05:39] <e66> relevant syslog http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251025/
[05:39] <pentagon> Smackbook: you might be blue pilled
[05:39] <pentagon> booting into a vm served by pxe boot
[05:39] <pentagon> thats what they keep doing to me
[05:39] <Smackbook> pentagon: ? like wake up and not remember if it was a dream or not?
[05:40] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, it was something simple... i remember that for sure.
[05:40] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: well fwiw what you are describing to do is what i've read in a few places, something really wierd must be going on here
[05:40] <pentagon> i want to break some legs at the cable company
[05:40] <ramprasadgk>  where do i get complete ubuntu package
[05:41] <pentagon> i buy a dynamic line and they just put me on static so they can keep fucking with me
[05:41] <lobhater> pentagon: how are they screwing you?
[05:42] <pentagon> because i cant change my ip address
[05:42] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: download the ubuntu iso ?
[05:42] <lobhater> pentagon: why do you want to?
[05:42] <codemaniac> !language
[05:42] <cactusfrog> quick question, if I want to make a pernimate ubuntu install on a USB and boot off of it with an intel mac, so I need a book disk, but the guide out there is only for 8.04 ubuntu, will the same steps work with a newer release?
[05:42] <pentagon> they got me on some mental health garbage
[05:42] <ramprasadgk>  i mean complete ubuntu package
[05:42] <pentagon> anytime you reject the cia they do it
[05:43] <pentagon> nasty militant sodomites
[05:43] <ramprasadgk> i want to install all packages without connecting to internet
[05:43] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[05:43] <ramprasadgk> what is hardy precise
[05:43] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: but solving the dependencies are a hell
[05:43] <ramprasadgk> whci on eto choose
[05:43] <|Anthony|> hey Smackbook. once at the lightdm greeter. you can select the xbmc session from the little bubble, right?
[05:43] <pentagon> they use it as an excuse to harass people
[05:43] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: a older version of ubuntu
[05:43] <lobhater> pentagon: proxy? tor?  they can't really keep you from doing anything? ssl encryption
[05:43] <ramprasadgk> which is newer
[05:44] <pentagon> i told them ill hack thenm up if they try and make me take pills
[05:44] <pentagon> so they follow me and shoot me with darts
[05:44] <|Anthony|> !ot
[05:44] <lobhater> pentagon: so your metal challenged or just a kid??
[05:44] <pentagon> no im harassed
[05:44] <ramprasadgk> when they say If you don’t need the full language pack, we recommend the standard CD installer as all other packages are available in the Software Centre.
[05:44] <pentagon> daily
[05:44] <lobhater> pentagon: how?
[05:45] <ramprasadgk> does it mean i need internet to connect to Software center
[05:45] <lobhater> pentagon: lets find a solution
[05:45] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: yes
[05:45] <Smackbook> |Anthony|: yes, and if lightdm.conf is set to xbmc AND "Login Automatically" is off, the bubble defaults to xbmc like you would expect.  if "Login Automatically" is turned on, it boots into gnome-classic.   wierd huh?
[05:45] <pentagon> well i try and buy a dynamic line and they give me a static line
[05:45] <pentagon> federal lockstep
[05:45] <lobhater> pentagon: usually people pay for a static ip?  why do you care?
[05:45] <pentagon> its harassment
[05:45] <codemaniac> ramprasadgk: but there are some ways for offline package installation
[05:45] <lobhater> pentagon: no its not
[05:46] <pentagon> yes it is harassment
[05:46] <ramprasadgk> i dont have internet at home i just need all package download at once
[05:46] <lobhater> pentagon: why do you need a dynamic ip?  and if you really do why dont you use one of the million proxy serves out ther
[05:46] <codemaniac> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Offline
[05:46] <ramprasadgk> please suggest where can i downlaod
[05:46] <pentagon> lobhater: dont tell me you are that dumb
[05:46] <pentagon> me and him
[05:47] <pentagon> eye and eye
[05:47] <pentagon> dynamic
[05:47] <pentagon> no tracking
[05:47] <lobhater> pentagon: yea I amm explain it to me
[05:47]  * pentagon sighs
[05:47] <|Anthony|> Smackbook, what i am getting at is that lightdm is supposed to remember your last session choice.  ISPs keep track of what dynamic ip was assigned to which customer at which time. so by even having a dynamic ip you are just as traceable
[05:52] <pentagon> I buy a fucking dynamic ip I want a dynamic ip
[05:52] <hmmwhatsthisdo> cactusfrog: how so?
[05:52] <witakr> hmmwhatsthisdo, Just commenting.. don't need help
[05:52] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: when I try to boot of a CD it doesn't work, just get a flashing white underscore and nothing else happens
[05:52] <|Anthony|> cactusfrog: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[05:53] <cactusfrog> codemaniac: no but i can get to one,
[05:53] <hmmwhatsthisdo> cactusfrog: might you be trying to boot an x64 copy of Ubuntu?
[05:53] <pentagon> lobhater: tor is a joke
[05:53] <codemaniac> cactusfrog: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[05:53] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: no 32 or x86
[05:53] <pentagon> lobhater: if you were the architect of your own tor network ok
[05:53] <pentagon> but connecting to just any tor node doesnt help
[05:53] <pentagon> could be a vm 1 hop away
[05:54] <codemaniac> pentagon: the discussion would better suite in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:54] <lobhater> pentagon: go to a coffee shop then
[05:54] <hmmwhatsthisdo> pentagon: I'm fairly sure you can specify countries to use for nodes
[05:54] <lobhater> pentagon: stop talking to me
[05:54] <cactusfrog> codemaniac: so is there any quick fix to the cd boot problem?
[05:54] <pentagon> i guess i will go to a coffee shop
[05:55] <hmmwhatsthisdo> cactusfrog: have you tried re-burning?
[05:55] <hmmwhatsthisdo> or using a DVD instead of a CD?
[05:55] <hmmwhatsthisdo> (as dumb as it sounds)
[05:55] <pentagon> and they always do the man in the middle with aircrack
[05:55] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: yes it was always on a DVD and i burned 4 using different disk burners and at a slow speed
[05:55] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: i also tested it on a windows machine and it worked
[05:56] <hmmwhatsthisdo> what Mac are you using?
[05:56] <pentagon> the left hand doesnt know what the right hand is doing
[05:56] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: as retarded as it sounds i don't know the exact kind, it is a new macbook pro 64bit 2.9gz bought in 2012
[05:57] <hmmwhatsthisdo> mmkay, so it's certainly one that CAN boot to disc
[05:57] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: I searched around and I couldn't find anyone with my exact problem
[05:58] <hmmwhatsthisdo> cactusfrog: have you tried installing to USB on a Windows device and booting to the USB on your Mac?
[05:58] <pentagon> everytime i download an iso its a different size
[05:58] <pentagon> what a joke
[05:58] <codemaniac> cactusfrog: you can play with the bootparameters
[05:58] <pentagon> i might just have to do lfs
[05:58] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: yes actually i was able to install a usb version of ubuntu on a USB and boot off of that, the problem was, that the other flash I had wouldn't plug in when the flash drive i booted off was plugged in...
[05:59] <cactusfrog> codemaniac: what do you mean?
[05:59] <hmmwhatsthisdo> why, only one USB port or something?
[05:59] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: no they are to close together
[05:59] <codemaniac> cactusfrog: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[05:59] <hmmwhatsthisdo> ah
[06:00] <lobhater> how do you guys think adobe reader compares to document viewer?
[06:01] <pentagon> no difference except for entry for the irs
[06:01] <pentagon> bs
[06:01] <cactusfrog> codemaniac: It wouldn't get to that stage of booting up. I would hold down alt (option) as I was booting up and then select the disk which for some reason is identified as windows, then it would just show an underscore that would flash white for a while and the disk would stop spinning and nothing would hapen
[06:02] <pentagon> adobe reader is mainly for irs tax forms
[06:03] <tomaz> When I open the program with Java 7 OpenJDK Runtime writes me this:
[06:03] <tomaz> The file '/ home / tomaz / Desktop / MinecraftSP.jar' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or Copied from an untrusted source, it may BE dangerous to Run. For more details, read about the executable bit.
[06:03] <tomaz> Please help!
[06:04] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: so I used a windows machine and installed a version of ubuntu on a flash drive using the drop down install menu, that didn't work either
[06:04] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: for that installation it would load but then get to the purple screen with the dots and freeze there, nothing else would happen
[06:04] <hmmwhatsthisdo> that's problematic
[06:05] <wilee-nilee> lobhater, This channel is not for polling try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:05] <tomaz> When I open the program with Java 7 OpenJDK Runtime writes me this:

[06:06] <wilee-nilee> !help > tomaz
[06:06] <codemaniac> tomaz: can you show us the output of ls -l /home/tomaz/Desktop/MinecraftSP.jar'
[06:06] <cactusfrog> hmmwhatsthisdo: yeah very, whats more annoying no one seems to have my problem. Are you sure that I can boot off of a Persistent Bootable Ubuntu USB Flash Drive on a mac
[06:07] <pentagon> they aint nothing but dope dealers anyway
[06:07] <pentagon> we da feds
[06:07] <pentagon> buch of crackheads everywhere
[06:07] <cactusfrog> penghuang: what are you talking about
[06:08] <pentagon> i cant even connect to yahoo now
[06:08] <cactusfrog> pentagon: so are you being blocked or what?
[06:09] <pentagon> i dont know its a cisco router
[06:09] <pentagon> wherever its routing my dns requests
[06:09] <pentagon> routs them to chicago before anything goes out
[06:10] <pentagon> windy city
[06:10] <pentagon> and then they send a bunch of dope fiends with illinois liscence plates down here
[06:10] <IdleOne> pentagon: Do you have a Ubuntu related support question?
[06:10] <cactusfrog> pentagon: have you checked to make sure that your router isn't set to another DSN i had a virus do that to me once
[06:11] <lobhater> cactusfrog: on your linux box?
[06:11] <pentagon> cactusfrog: not allowed into the router its the cable companys
[06:11] <IdleOne> pentagon: Do you have a Ubuntu related support question?
[06:12] <pentagon> yeah IdleOne
[06:12] <cactusfrog> lobhater: i had my router set to the default password and someone connected with an infected pc that changed the DSN
[06:12] <IdleOne> If not please take the chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:12] <Snowie> hi all. I have a shortcut in the launcher for a web app plexmediaserver. Anyone tell me how i can modify it to open in firefox rather than chrome?

[06:13] <darkodelta> i have a question how to change ethernet adapter DNS settings in Ubuntu
[06:13] <chris92> pentagon: for which iso exactly?
[06:13] <cactusfrog> lobhater: it wasn't consistent either so it took me forever to figure out what was going on. It was the link bucks virus

[06:14] <lobhater> IdleOne: how many lines of text am i allowed to type at one time?
[06:14] <IdleOne> lobhater: not a question of numbers of lines but more about readability

[06:14] <Yellowzinha> anyone can tell me? please
[06:14] <chris92> why?
[06:14] <lobhater> k

[06:15] <maxexcloo> Hey guys, how can I disable the creation of motd.legal-displayed in ~/.cache on login?

[06:16] <Yellowzinha> why usb?
[06:16] <pentagon> nope no md5 for the server on there
[06:17] <pentagon> chris92: do you see an md5 for the server on there?
[06:17] <gogeta> yawn
[06:17] <chris92> pentagon: one sec
[06:17] <lobhater> pentagon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes
[06:18] <pentagon> lobhater: you are not listetning

[06:18] <chris92> pentagon: 3daaa312833a7da1e85e2a02787e4b66 - thats the md5 hash for server i386 / 12.04.1
[06:18] <lobhater> pentagon: a search engine is an amazing tool.  you can find anything
[06:18] <IdleOne> Yellowzinha: because you said you don't have a cd
[06:18] <lobhater> yes pentagon the server hash was on that link
[06:18] <Yellowzinha> ok
[06:18] <lobhater> pentagon: are you reading?
[06:18] <IdleOne> pentagon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes Does have the server hashes for 12.04
[06:18] <Yellowzinha> but the usb has to be empty?
[06:19] <lobhater> pentagon: are you?
[06:20] <chris92> IdleOne: he wanted to know the md5 sum for the 12.04.1 server iso, which isnt listed on the site you and lobhater linked
[06:20] <Yellowzinha> IdleOne -- usb has to be empty?
[06:21] <Yellowzinha> ?
[06:21] <Yellowzinha> i need help!
[06:21] <chris92> Yellowzinha: yes, the usb drive should be empty, or at least should not contain any valuable data, as it gets formatted when you create the an usb boot medium with it
[06:21] <IdleOne> chris92: you are right, pentagon here it is http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/
[06:21] <Yellowzinha> hmm ok ok
[06:22] <Yellowzinha> Thanks IdleOne!
[06:22] <Yellowzinha> bye
[06:22] <chris92> pentagon: did you get the hash?
[06:23] <pentagon> lobhater: do you understand i want support not a searxch engine
[06:23] <pentagon> you could get paid 12 dollars an hour to man support telephone lines and say "server's down"
[06:24] <gogeta> pentagon: that's opnening a can of worms lol
[06:24] <chris92> can we all calm down again, gentlemen?
[06:25] <pentagon> no servers down!
[06:25] <pentagon> servers down!
[06:26] <gogeta> pentagon: what server apt?
[06:26] <lobhater> lol
[06:26] <chris92> pentagon: Here's your hash, sir: 3daaa312833a7da1e85e2a02787e4b66 *ubuntu-12.04.1-server-i386.iso
[06:27] <chris92> i'd usually suggest joining #ubuntu-offtopic, but I dont think it helps in this case :/
[06:27] <gogeta> raaaa
[06:28] <chris92> gogeta: btw, nice nickname choice =)
[06:28] <chris92> gogeta: if the origin is what I think it is
[06:28] <pentagon> chris92: is that the verion with child porn spam bots built in
[06:28] <IdleOne> back to REAL Ubuntu support.
[06:29] <gogeta> chris92: lol had this Nick registers for years
[06:29] <Guest70518> What could be the reason that my new Logitech K750 wireless keyboard does not work with the pre-boot encryption login password?
[06:29] <gogeta> outch ban hammer
[06:29] <chris92> gogeta: dbz was first aired some years ago :P but that is stuff to be discussed in the ot-channel ;)
[06:30] <chris92> Guest70518: i guess the "wireless" is the problem
[06:31] <chris92> Guest70518: how does it connect to the pc, bluetooth?
[06:31] <Guest70518> chris92, via USB
[06:32] <e66> http://askubuntu.com/questions/194376/network-manager-internet-sharing-and-dnsmasq-conflict
[06:32] <chris92> Guest70518: ah okay. did you have an usb keyboard before?
[06:32] <Guest70518> chris92, yes
[06:32] <chris92> Guest70518: i assume that worked?
[06:32] <Guest70518> chris92, yet it did
[06:33] <gogeta> chris92: strange my Logitech wireless USB works fine darn drivers
[06:34] <gogeta> is it one with extra keys or somethibg
[06:34] <chris92> Guest70518: pre-boot encryption... is it the bios password or is it sth like truecrypt?
[06:34] <Guest70518> chris92, no
[06:34] <Guest70518> chris92, it is the ubuntu full disk encryption
[06:35] <devslash> is 12.10 officially out ?
[06:35] <IdleOne> no
[06:35] <witakr> devslash, nope
[06:35] <chris92> devslash: it should be released in about 3-4 weeks
[06:35] <IdleOne> !12.10
[06:35] <devslash> ok thanks
[06:36] <gogeta> Guest70518: Hummer it must be asking for the password before it loads the USB driver
[06:36] <devslash> and can you update ubuntu server from the command line instead of a full install ?
[06:36] <gogeta> lol at spell check
[06:37] <Guest70518> gogeta, that sucks.
[06:37] <chris92> devslash: u mean an upgrade to a newer version?
[06:37] <gogeta> devslash: yes
[06:37] <devslash> ok thanks
[06:40] <gogeta> disk cryptograms is unneeded anyways a good file destroyer and sentiv data is gone
[06:40] <Guest70518> gogeta, I hope you are not serious.
[06:41] <gogeta> never herd of true deletions lol
[06:43] <witakr> 'her'?  I have a shortcut in the launcher for a web app plexmediaserver. Anyone tell me how i can modify it to open in firefox rather than chrome?
[06:44] <nirav> hey
[06:44] <Rizla> Got a problem hoping that someone can help
[06:44] <witakr> Snowie, I beleive plex requires chrome to function properly
[06:44] <codemaniac> Snowie: try changing your default browser to chrome ?
[06:45] <gogeta> !ask
[06:45] <witakr> Rizla, What's the problem?
[06:47] <Rizla> Sec
[06:47] <witakr> Snowie, I tried opening my pms in FF and it seems to have opened fine.. That being the case I would go with codemaniac's suggestion
[06:48] <codemaniac> witakr: i cannot remember the context :)
[06:49] <witakr> codemaniac, "codemaniac> Snowie: try changing your default browser to chrome ?" which was a response to this: "Rizla> Got a problem hoping that someone can help"
[06:49] <codemaniac> aha :)
[06:50] <Guest70518> I am using Gnome in Ubuntu 12.04. I don't know what I did but now I have 4 "protect you computer from unauthorized use" lock screen icons in the top panel. How can one remove them again? A right click does not provide an option to remove them.
[06:50] <witakr> codemaniac, Actually.. lol I erred there.. It wasn't a response to Rizla .. It was a response to Snowie's question about plex and chrome
[06:51] <chris92> codemaniac: also, he wanted to avoid chrome and rather use firefox :P therefore setting chrome as default browser would be pretty useless :P
[06:52] <Rizla> I have a win7 pc and iv been Trying to boot ubuntu 12.04 from a usb but it always hang when i come as far as the screen gets its nice ubuntu color and then it hangs. The ubuntu logo doesnt show up or anything it just hangs. I can move the mouse but there isnt anything there just the nice ubuntu color. I have tried dualboot, cd, usb all the same
[06:52] <err-or> my 12.04 spits out lots of not found errors if do apt-get update. im using approx on ubuntu 10.04. is there anything i should change in my approx conf?
[06:52] <codemaniac> chris92: it is typing-in-lots-of-channels syndrome
[06:53] <Garr255> how about older audis? I'm looking at a 2000 a6
[06:53] <Rizla> When i installed dualboot it got so bad i had to format everything
[06:54] <witakr> Rizla, There may be a problem detecting or recognizing hardware.. I can't remember how the live cds and usbs boot but if you have the option you might try booting in a verbose mode and see what it says
[06:54] <chris92> witakr: i think you could press alt+tab to get into a verbose mode while booting
[06:55] <chris92> witakr: not sure tho if thats what u mean
[06:55] <Rizla> When you make the usb boot disk should it be formated in fat32
[06:55] <Guest70518> Anybody has an idea?
[06:55] <chris92> Rizla: normally the usb boot disk tool on ubuntu does the right settings for it
[06:56] <Rizla> Ok
[06:56] <chris92> Guest70518: no idea, sorry, im not using unity :)
[06:56] <witakr> chris92, I think that's right..lol
[06:56] <Rizla> What filesystem does ubuntu 12.04?
[06:56] <Guest70518> chris92, not Unity but Gnome.
[06:56] <witakr> Rizla, ext
[06:56] <chris92> Rizla: ext2, ext3 or ext4, preferably ext4 tho
[06:57] <witakr> ext4 in the house
[06:57] <chris92> Guest70518: I'm on xfce ;) sorry, would like to help you, but I cant :/
[06:57] <witakr> Rizla, What program did you use to create the live USB?
[06:58] <Rizla> That one that links from the ubuntu download page.
[06:58] <Guest70518> chris92, I found the solution. Thx http://askubuntu.com/questions/91445/how-do-i-remove-an-icon-from-the-top-panel-in-gnome-fallback-mode
[06:59] <witakr> Rizla, In windows I had the best experience creating Live USB's using Lily
[06:59] <chris92> Guest70518: google is a friend :3
[06:59] <Guest70518> chris92, google was founded by the CIA
[07:00] <witakr> Rizla, FIX: LiLi see here: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
[07:00] <Rizla> Ill try
[07:00] <Guest70518> chris92, google wants us to fully trust it but it is definitely not a friend.
[07:00] <Rizla> Thanks
[07:00] <TitanZ> is there any offline Language translator for ubuntu ?
[07:00] <rymate1234> I trust google
[07:00] <rymate1234> lol
[07:01] <chris92> google has so much from my data... im using an android phone
[07:01] <chris92> definitely better than apple tho
[07:01] <chris92> or facebook
[07:01] <witakr> Rizla, Also, download the latest ISO of Ubuntu from the ubuntu website and use LiLi to create your Live USB.. I have always selected for it to format the flash drive and I have never had a bad install that way. you may try that.
[07:01] <Guest70518> facebook is another CIA front.
[07:02] <rymate1234> Guest70518 thinks everything is the CIA
[07:02] <aeon-ltd> except CIA
[07:02] <Guest70518> look at the board of directors of facebook and google
[07:02] <TitanZ> Is  there any offline Language translator for ubuntu  ?
[07:02] <aeon-ltd> CIA is a front for the FBI
[07:02] <Guest70518> i use yacy.net
[07:03] <TitanZ> what's that yacy.net ?
[07:03] <rymate1234> Guest70518, yacy.net is a front for MI6
[07:03] <witakr> yacy.net?
[07:03] <witakr> rymate1234, lol
[07:03] <Guest70518> yacy is a distributed, peer to peer search engine. anonymous, uncensorable
[07:03] <rymate1234> yes
[07:03] <TitanZ> Can i guys, show me an offline translator for ubuntu ?
[07:04] <rymate1234> look at the main contributors of it
[07:04] <rymate1234> all members of MI6 undercover
[07:04] <devslash> is the ad system thats coming in ubuntu only part of x or is it baked into the underlying linux core ?
[07:04] <rymate1234> devslash, its only in unity
[07:04] <devslash> ahh ok
[07:04] <devslash> because i don't use X
[07:04] <witakr> Xfce ftw
[07:05] <rymate1234> They should add amazon apps into grep
[07:07] <zerowaitstate> no, google ad words
[07:08] <Snowie> witakr, sorry for the late reply, been googling. problem is, the link in chrome has weird artefacts, FF works fine. hence why im trying to change the browser the application points to.,
[07:08] <cmug> Hi, I got a machine that does not boot the installer. I have tried with USB and with DVD. On another machine they work fine. Are there specific bios options that are known to cause havoc on 12.04 LTS 64b installer media?
[07:09] <cmug> during boot, it shows me the initial Ubuntu installer logo and then goes to blink a cursor at top left which never progresses so I feel its hw related
[07:09] <witakr> Snowie, You may just change your default browser to FF. Should be a setting in FF to do that... one sec...
[07:10] <Kulitorum> v identify Silverspoon
[07:10] <Kulitorum> Woops
[07:10] <witakr> Snowie, In FF Click Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Make FireFox my default browser.
[07:10] <witakr> try that
[07:10] <Snowie> witakr, i prefer chrome for all else. Only plex from unity shortcut i want changed. all the guides i find seem to rely on unity launcher have in favourites option, which is not present on 12.04 i think
[07:11] <codemaniac> Kulitorum: try /msg nickserv help identify
[07:11] <witakr> Snowie, Ah.. ok one sec
[07:11] <zerowaitstate> Snowie, you can also go into system settings in unity and go to the Details window, then go to default programs
[07:11] <Snowie> witakr, i think all i need to do is edit launcher to say "firefox http://'plex'
[07:12] <Snowie> witakr, i just cant find the launcher file to edit L(
[07:12] <Snowie> :(
[07:13] <chris92> snowie, rightclick the shortcut maybe?
[07:14] <chris92> dunno if there is a context menu on unity
[07:14] <chris92> for that stuff
[07:14] <witakr> Snowie, I got it.. do this: On your desktop right click and select create launcher and then in the Name field type Plex.. it should offer to auto complete. Select the auto complete option but in the command field change x-www-browser to firefox
[07:14] <witakr> try that.. it worked for me
[07:15] <hemite> Hello, I am having some issues installing ubuntu on a powerbok g4. I can't seem to load either 10.10 or 12.04. Anyone know which version is compatible?
[07:15] <Guest70518> Does anybody know if there is a Ubuntu package for yacy.net?
[07:15] <Snowie> witakr, 12.04, i see no such option when i right click desktop
[07:15] <witakr> Snowie, You using Ubuntu with Unity?
[07:16] <rymate1234> Guest70518, google.com
[07:16] <Snowie> yes
[07:16] <chris92> hemite: try this one: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-powerpc.iso
[07:16] <Snowie> witakr, yes, 2d
[07:16] <Guest70518> rymate1234, google is a CIA front.
[07:16] <witakr> Snowie, Ok one sec
[07:16] <cmug> Guest70518: duckduckgo.com then
[07:16] <Snowie> witakr, thanks mate
[07:16] <adante> more like cia is a google front
[07:16] <rymate1234> oh
[07:16] <rymate1234> maybe the cia removed the yacy package for ubuntu
[07:16] <rymate1234> damn cia
[07:17] <hemite> chris92, Do you know if there is one of those for KDE?
[07:17] <chris92> hemite, gimme a second
[07:18] <Snowie> witakr, thanks for your help mate, but friends have arrived to wisk me away early. pm me if you have an answer. ill be back on here later anyway. appreciate it bro
[07:18] <chris92> hemite: there you go, kubuntu for powerpc: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/12.04.1/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-powerpc.iso
[07:18] <zerowaitstate> well, apparently ubuntu 12.10 does not play well with VBox
[07:19] <chris92> !12.10 | zerowaitstate
[07:19] <witakr> okiedoke
[07:19] <zerowaitstate> ah, doh
[07:19] <zerowaitstate> thanks
[07:19] <cmug> Fedora 18 seems to launch the installer.. now what is so different between fedora and 12.04 installers
[07:19] <chris92> probably the boot method or the drivers
[07:20] <rymate1234> cmug, a lot
[07:20] <cmug> ofcourse, but why is my standard x86_64 desktop so special
[07:20] <rymate1234> I think the fedora installer might be a fron for the cia
[07:20] <rymate1234> *front
[07:20] <chris92> rymate1234 :D
[07:21] <cmug> thatswhy Id rather use Ubuntu
[07:21] <codemaniac> rymate1234: you are blocking support
[07:21] <rymate1234> ok lol
[07:21] <xorgnak_> ubuntu and fedora come from different code bases.  Fedora kind of does theor own thing while ubuntu borrows from the debian community
[07:22] <cmug> Its all linux in the end though, anyway, how do I debug the ubuntu installer that why does it fail?
[07:22] <hemite> chris92, Ok hopefully this will work. I've tried previous ones already but I havn't been able to boot any of them
[07:22] <xorgnak_> try ubuntu's minimal install and build from there.  it's a good learning experience if you're somewhat new to linux
[07:22] <hemite> chris92,  I'm doing this off a live usb idk if that matters
[07:22] <xorgnak_> how'd you prepare the usb stick?
[07:22] <rymate1234> guys
[07:23] <rymate1234> I get this error when trying to launch FTL
[07:23] <cmug> xorgnak_: unetbootin, triedboth minimal and live
[07:23] <rymate1234> http://pastebin.com/mpt3ptaH
[07:23] <cmug> xorgnak_: now it has live inside
[07:23] <cmug> minimal, netboot i mea
[07:23] <cmug> n
[07:23] <xorgnak_> I can't remember how to do it offhand, but dd the image to the stick.
[07:24] <rymate1234> I also get those errors with minecraft
[07:24] <rymate1234> wat do
[07:24] <cmug> dvd fails to same @error@
[07:24] <chris92> rymate1234: not sure if serious or troll
[07:24] <cmug> so its not the boot media, im sure
[07:24] <xorgnak_> sometimes unetbootin won't overwrite the usb's mbr and it causes problems.
[07:24] <witakr> rymate1234, It seems you are missing a couple drivers
[07:25] <rymate1234> chris92, actually serious at the moment
[07:25] <chris92> rymate1234: looks like you miss the radeon driver
[07:25] <chris92> if r600 is indeed the radeon driver
[07:25] <chris92> also, there is a linux version of FTL?!
[07:25] <rymate1234> ye
[07:26] <cmug> I assume the installer logo keyboard = human is the grub loading? how do I change the boot parameters?
[07:26] <witakr> plus 1 point for early english response
[07:26] <xorgnak_> should be standard grub
[07:26] <Canuckian> cmug, when you see those images, just wait a minute or two more
[07:26] <xorgnak_> something like 'e' at boot I think
[07:26] <rymate1234> package seems to be installed
[07:27] <auronandace> !boot | cmug
[07:27] <xorgnak_> unetbootin uses sbm.  I keep forgetting that.
[07:27] <chris92> rymate1234: did you activate the drivers in "Additional drivers"?
[07:27] <cmug> b
[07:27] <cmug> ca
[07:27] <rymate1234> No
[07:27] <cmug> oops
[07:28] <rymate1234> I'm using the open source ones
[07:28] <cmug> Canuckian: yeah i let it sit there for 20min already
[07:28] <chris92> rymate1234: ahh okay
[07:28] <cmug> auronandace: thanks
[07:28] <rymate1234> so it should work out of the box
[07:28] <cmug> xorgnak_: yes with unetbootin the loader is different, ill try that instead of the dvd
[07:28] <xorgnak_> cmug: are you booting hardware or vm?
[07:29] <cmug> hardware
[07:29] <xorgnak_> checksums match?
[07:29] <cmug> yes
[07:29] <cmug> laptop boots fine from both medias
[07:29] <cmug> desktop failing
[07:29] <xorgnak_> damn.  you're killing my troubleshooting tree.
[07:30] <xorgnak_> what's the platform?
[07:30] <cmug> x86_64
[07:30] <cmug> ok got the splash and quiet out, i see its probing my disks
[07:30] <xorgnak_> have you tried x86?  sometimes that will boot more reliably on x86_64
[07:30] <xorgnak_> making progress
[07:31] <cmug> or, has finished probing my disks
[07:31] <cmug> and tilted there
[07:31] <cmug> I never understood why I should prefer 32b over 64b
[07:31] <cmug> even if it was more stable etc etc, but thats more of a Microsoft thinking
[07:32] <xorgnak_> I still use 32.  but then again, I don't have a particular need for 64
[07:32] <witakr> I use 64 with no problems
[07:32] <cmug> I have over 4Gigs of RAM, my need right there
[07:32] <cmug> I have 64b running in my server without issues
[07:32] <xorgnak_> I've run 64 before just fine.  just no good reason to prefer it.
[07:33] <cmug> I could try 32b installer and see if it worked any better, but that will delay me a bit too much
[07:33] <witakr> Mathematically speaking 64 is greater than 32 thus I like it more..lol
[07:33] <Cell> What is going on with Ubuntu's system reporter? I no longer see any detail about system crashes, I just see a message saying System reporter, report problem? And two buttons saying cancel and report problem
[07:33] <xorgnak_> it'd be worth a shot.
[07:34] <xorgnak_> I live in command line land so I didn't even know system reporter existed
[07:34] <witakr> I love the GUI goodness, myself
[07:35] <xorgnak_> there's another good reason to run 64
[07:38] <trash_> fala

[07:42] <Cell> xorgnak_ I do run 64
[07:43] <Shazer[2]> Hey guys, I'm missing dependencies for Teamviewer.
[07:43] <flashbang> english?
[07:43] <Shazer[2]> How do I install them?
[07:43] <stefano_> \list
[07:43] <witakr> Shazer[2], Install it with playonlinux
[07:44] <auronandace> Shazer[2]: teamviewer isn't in the repo but its dependencies are
[07:44] <Shazer[2]> witakr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251165/
[07:44] <Shazer[2]> That's the problem.
[07:44] <gry> flashbang: hi, yes, this is an English support channel. Are you looking for another language support?
[07:44] <maxexcloo> Hey guys, how can I disable the creation of motd.legal-displayed in ~/.cache on login?
[07:45] <auronandace> Shazer[2]: you need the ai32libs
[07:45] <Shazer[2]> auronandace: what's the command?
[07:45] <auronandace> Shazer[2]: i can't remember the name of the package
[07:46] <Shazer[2]> Alright. :)
[07:46] <Shazer[2]> Anybody else know?
[07:46] <xorgnak> SYN
[07:46] <gry> ack
[07:46] <xorgnak> thank you
[07:46] <cmug> Whatever is the equalent of yum whatprovides command in apt-get/dpkg
[07:47] <xorgnak> try apt-get install
[07:47] <m000gle> I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 (Gnome-Shell) and was wondering if there is any way to control what happens when left-clicking on the system tray icons.  Most applications (eg Pidgin, VLC, X-Chat) hide/show the main window when the tray icon is clicked, while others (eg gPodder) displays a context menu. I'm hoping to make the latter function the same as the former.
[07:48] <witakr> Shazer[2], in terminal try: sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 and repeat for each dependency it tells you it needs in your pastebin post
[07:48] <witakr> that is what i would do to start with
[07:48] <xorgnak> bingo
[07:50] <xorgnak> you could get really fancy and download source packages and compile them yourself, but if you were into that sort of thing youd be doing a gentoo install
[07:50] <auronandace> Shazer[2]: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs-multiarch
[07:50] <cmug> xorgnak: 32b installer hangs just the same
[07:50] <witakr> or he can download the msi file from microsoft.com
[07:50] <xorgnak> alternate installer?
[07:50] <cmug> xorgnak: no live
[07:51] <xorgnak> try the alternate installer.  thatll boot on anything.
[07:51] <cmug> lol
[07:51] <witakr> its true.. I got it to boot on my toaster three days ago
[07:51] <xorgnak> or you could just bite the bullet and try a debian install
[07:51] <Notimik> anyoone here running 12.10?
[07:52] <witakr> Notimik, not I
[07:52] <xorgnak> yo.
[07:52] <cmug> hmm, the install option goes furhter than the live environment. All the way to USB Mass storage support registered
[07:52] <gry> in #ubuntu+1 Notimik
[07:52] <witakr> !12.10 | Notimik
[07:52] <cmug> I will let it sit there for a moment
[07:52] <Notimik> gry: will try that then
[07:53] <gry> sure, good luck
[08:03] <nucc1> Hi guys, using gnome shell, is there a way to make changing workspaces change both of my monitors?
[08:05] <Happy_Larry> hi
[08:07] <flashbang> ?
[08:07] <xorgnak> that sounds like a xinarama issue
[08:11] <nucc1> xorgnak, you referring to me?
[08:11] <nucc1> its a gnome-shell issue.
[08:11] <nucc1> i've found the fix.
[08:11] <nucc1> i originally was trying to fix it in "metacity", but i need to fix it in gnome-shell.
[08:11] <nucc1> a dconf setting.
[08:12] <xorgnak> good times
[08:16] <g_> hello everyone I have one small question.. I installed ubuntu server 12.04 x64
[08:16] <gry> and then? :-)
[08:16] <g_> then I figured I'd like a window manager :) So I installed the kubuntu package on top
[08:16] <witakr> lol
[08:16] <gry> did it work? ;-)
[08:16] <g_> which is really not so wise but whatever, some more learning
[08:16] <g_> :-)
[08:16] <witakr> the suspense is killing me g_
[08:17] <g_> then after I jungled through the login screen to make the system actually only use KDE and automatically login to KDE.. I did it:) yeaaah
[08:17] <g_> hahaha stop it you guys :D
[08:17] <g_> so!
[08:17] <ejv> hello, this evening I upgraded from 10.04 to 12.04 and (among other things) it has run amuck on my software raid (mdadm). It fails to assemble, complaining about "invalid raid superblock magic on /dev/sdXX". This array however was *just working* 2 hours ago under 10.04. How do I salvage this mess without losing data? Thanks.
[08:17] <g_> I went on to install the 'restricted package' .. but didnt know which one to choose
[08:17] <g_> Actually I am web dev/ web designer so I'd need more fancy fonts for my Chrome
[08:17] <g_> for the moment they look very .. edgy..
[08:17] <g_> I turned on antiliasing didn't help much...
[08:18] <g_> It strikes me how different font rendering is between chrome winx and chrome unix
[08:18] <IdleOne> please stop using ... and try completing a thought on one line
[08:18] <g_> apologies.
[08:18] <IdleOne> accepted :)
[08:19] <gry> g_, "ubuntu-restricted-extras" looks like it
[08:19] <g_> My question is, as I installed kubuntu package on top of server (which is basically a naked core unix) how do I proceed from now on.. which packages apply to my case? ubuntu or kubuntu.. and do you know which package should I install for extra fonts and so on? Thanks in advance.
[08:20] <g_> gry: thanks. So the previous package I installed, should I remove it?
[08:20] <gry> only if you're asked to; they probably coexist well, too
[08:21] <g_> Thanks. In general would you say I should continue using this system or Should I just format and go back to a normal kubuntu? I plan on doing some experimentation on LAMP stacks, Varnish, Memcache, svn and so on..
[08:22] <gry> I'm running lamp ok on a desktop install (ubuntu/xubuntu) but I'd suggest probably reading docs as to in what way server install is different from the desktop one, as I'm hardly proficient in that personally
[08:23] <gry> if you run lamp on a desktop, just make sure you don't do it for production, and it could be fine; on the other hand, server install could be shipped with a bunch of useful monitoring tools
[08:24] <g_> yeah, that's what I guessed too. It's not prod. it's just personal pc testing.. simulation:) Last question, apt-get upgrade is good enough to upgrade all existing packages?
[08:24] <gry> I'm speaking without any experience with ubuntu server install myself, and I'm sure the difference is documented somewhere..  hrmph. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq#What.27s_the_difference_between_desktop_and_server.3F ?
[08:24] <gry> do `apt-get update` then `apt-get upgrade` (first one updates packages listing)
[08:25] <bekks> Basically the server uses another kernel and has no desktop environment.
[08:25] <gry> In my case I run it with sudo ('sudo apt-get update') or use ubuntu software center or synaptic
[08:25] <g_> bekks: ?
[08:26] <gry> he's trying to outline the difference.. yes, this is related to your question g_ :)
[08:26] <g_> bekks: a different kernel? It's compiled differently so that it is.. lighter? simpler?
[08:26] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[08:26] <gry> on that note, bekks may want to read my last link, item 3. the knowledge appears a bit outdated
[08:27] <gry> (these kernels are same since 12.04)
[08:27] <gry> hello ShapeShifter499
[08:27] <ShapeShifter499> is it possible to run a 64 bit application on a 32 bit ubuntu install when the CPU can run 64 bit Operating Systems and apps?
[08:27] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: No.
[08:27] <witakr> There's those numbers again
[08:27] <xorgnak> seems to be the issue of the day
[08:28] <bekks> gry: They arent. There is a -server kernel... :)
[08:28] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, why?
[08:28] <gry> bekks, the faq entry I linked implies they were merged or I'm misreading things?
[08:28] <bekks> gry: You are misreading things :)
[08:28] <xorgnak> SYN
[08:28] <gry> xorgnak, ack
[08:29] <xorgnak> thank you.
[08:29] <bannaz> hello everyone
[08:29] <gry> bekks, could you possible un-bork my understanding there please (I'm failing to comprehend)?
[08:29] <gry> hi bannaz
[08:29] <xorgnak> Im just going to start treating my random SYNs as sneezes.
[08:29] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, I know that virtualbox will let me run a whole ubuntu 64 bit ontop of my 32 bit install because my CPU supports it, why not support for one (or a couple) of 64 bit apps
[08:29] <bannaz> hey gry
[08:29] <bekks> gry: The contents of the kernel are the same, but there still is the transitional package for -server.
[08:29] <Myrtti> ShapeShifter499: if a road has a bottleneck of being three meters wide, it doesn't matter how wide the road was intended to be if the object that needs to travel on that road is 4 meters wide
[08:29] <gry> bekks: (what does the transitional package do?)
[08:30] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: One thing, to run 64 bit apps you need 64 bit system calls and memory management, which requires the kernel to be running in long mode.
[08:30] <bekks> gry: It basically translates one package into another, without breaking dependencies.
[08:31] <gry> I see. does that imply a user of server install has an option of using the default kernel and a server kernel?
[08:31] <bekks> gry: No.
[08:31] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, so it would have to be though virtualbox then huh?
[08:31] <g_> guys. how do I see if my nvidia driver is installed automatically and if I have the latest version?
[08:31] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: In that case, your kernel is is running in long mode (though at a guess, I would expect that your virtualbox VM won't be able to take advantage of RAM which your 32 bit kernel can't access.
[08:32] <gry> bekks, ok, I'll keep that in mind. the faq appears to be a bit confusing (that is, I'm not seeing why it's saying the kernels are merged if they're different)
[08:32] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, I thought PAE opened it up to a max of 64 gigs
[08:32] <nibbler> Myrtti, you'd have to emulate a 4m wide road on the 3m wide one ;-)
[08:32] <gry> g_: good question, please stand by
[08:32] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: As I understand it, yes. But there isn't much of a reason not to run a 64 bit kernel on 64 bit hardware (except that distros make installing 32 bit kernels easier in 32 bit userlands).
[08:33] <c2tarun> my enery star is getting reset to Standby: 48    Suspend: 72    Off: 96 no matter how many times I change it disable it or anything. I am facing this problem since many days, can anyone please help?
[08:33] <gry> g_: possibly http://www.upubuntu.com/2011/07/how-to-check-your-opengl-and-nvidia.html
[08:33] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, I ran in to 32 bit only drivers (like one for my dial up modem which will be for mostly faxes)
[08:33] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: Then you can just create a chroot with any needed 64 bit libraries and run your 64 bit apps in that. Though that leads to the question of why you want a 32 bit userland at all.
[08:33] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: Where did you get this driver from?
[08:34] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, the ubuntu repos, its called martian-modem, I couldn't get it to work in 64 bit even after i386-libs installed
[08:35] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: You tried simply "sudo apt-get install martian-modem"?
[08:36] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, yes then I googled all over the internet and found no 64 bit hope so I reinstalled to 32 bit
[08:36] <newbchessplayer> Hello, I would like to use my ubuntu system audio OUTPUT as an INPUT for another program so i can play music on voip calls. could anyone clue me in on the secret to doing this?
[08:36] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, I hate having hardware I might use not work
[08:37] <Jordan_U> newbchessplayer: #pulseaudio might be a good place to try if nobody here answers (note that #pulseaudio is a much smaller channel, wait paitiently).
[08:39] <Calinou> newbchessplayer: playing music in VOIP calls is a very bad idea, I advise not doing it
[08:40] <Calinou> just upload the music somewhere and give the link
[08:40] <Calinou> whenever you do that, mumblers say your name
[08:41] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, so I can have a 64 bit chroot?
[08:41] <newbchessplayer> Calinou, what is a mumbler
[08:42] <newbchessplayer> Calinou, i just want to play it on the call. period. i  dont want to give them a link to it.
[08:42] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: Only with a 64 bit kernel.
[08:42] <gloni> hello
[08:42] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, D:
[08:43] <gloni> i am having troubles getting wlan to work. the modules are loaded, the rfkill switch is disabled... but i dont see no interface
[08:44] <ejv> Hello, this evening I upgraded from 10.04 to 12.04 and (among other things) it has run amuck on my software raid (mdadm). It fails to assemble, complaining about "invalid raid superblock magic on /dev/sdXX". This array however was *just working* 2 hours ago under 10.04. How do I salvage this mess without losing data? Thanks.
[08:44] <gloni> Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 A
[08:45] <Jordan_U> ShapeShifter499: Try just installing a 64 bit kernel in your current 32 bit installl and see if everything (including the modem) continues to work. Though realize 1: This is non-standard, and probably not "officially supported" 2: I don't have time to walk you through how to do it right now and 3: This will probably require manually downloading kernel images, and generating initramfs images, and you will need to go through this ...
[08:45] <Jordan_U> ... manual process every time there is a kernel update.
[08:48] <newbchessplayer> Jordan_U, thanks for the referral to #pulseaudio but they seem to be too uptight in there to be bothered to answer my question
[08:49] <[deXter]> Uninstall pulseaudio, problem solved :)
[08:49] <g_> Guys, I guess wasnt a good idea to start from the Ubuntu server.. I have no sound...
[08:49] <g_> any idea what to install to fix this?
[08:50] <ShapeShifter499> Jordan_U, I found this post, looks solid, I'll try it ---> http://askubuntu.com/a/152798

[08:56] <BenL90> Hm..
[08:56] <g_> guys any idea why I have no sound?
[08:57] <BenL90> Hei, i need help please :(
[08:57] <Nunya-Biz> bazhang, Yeah - all over httpd, but I'm missing the apache2.conf file, (It didn't install properly), do you have it?
[08:57] <Ycarene> I want to install a package that is available on quantal but not in precise (the working version of libdvdnav) how do I do that without doing a complete upgrade?
[08:57] <bazhang> Nunya-Biz, #httpd is a freenode channel
[08:58] <bazhang> Ycarene, whats not working
[08:58] <Nunya-Biz> bazhang, Mate, love your work! Thanks! (I'm off and over there now...)  Cheers!
[08:58] <err-or> nfs-kernel-server isn't working anymore since i upgraded to 12.04. not starting: portmapper not running. any hints to fix this?
[08:59] <Ycarene> The libdvdnav library crashes with an error in "dvdnav_describe_title_chapters" it's fixed in quantal but not in precise.  It doesn't look like there are any plans to port the fix back to precise either so I'd like to install the quantal version.
[09:00] <bazhang> Ycarene, what precisely are you trying to do when you get that error
[09:00] <Ycarene> Play a dvd
[09:01] <BenL90> Hemmmm
[09:02] <Ycarene> The bug described is here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdvdnav/+bug/934471 it shows libdvdnav-4.2.0-1ubuntu1 as the working version but it's not available in precise.

[09:05] <decci> Need an AWK script that connects to an RS 232 device that will have to have a background thread constantly reading 2 com ports for data received and send them to 2 standard out files.I wanted to get this as done in awk because i know it works, has no dependency no rpm, no fiddle code script that works. I understand that awk is not multi thread and it does buffer, what i need is a real time simple port monitor that will deposit its out

[09:07] <nibbler> just installed ubuntu 12.4 from alternative installer, it was not able to install the desktop environment, and after enabling some extra repositorys via synaptic checkboxes it complained about missing keys...... i was quiet shocked....
[09:08] <bazhang> !gpgerr | nibbler
[09:08] <bazhang> nibbler, perhaps you meant 12.04
[09:08] <nibbler> bazhang, thanks, its all resolved.... just saying... its not a custom repo, its one of the synaptic preconfigured ones
[09:08] <drcode> thanx
[09:08] <nibbler> bazhang, 12.04.x
[09:09] <nomade64> buongiorno.....qualche italiano?
[09:09] <bazhang> nibbler, that happens sometimes, internet drops packets etc
[09:09] <bazhang> nomade64, #ubuntu-it
[09:09] <nomade64> ok
[09:09] <nomade64> tank
[09:10] <g_> bazhang: sorry... just bit frustrated...
[09:11] <bazhang> g_, did you check in alsamixer that nothing is muted
[09:12] <WACOMalt> hi there. I have a scrip that I currently have to launch by cd'ing to the directory and ./scriptname
[09:12] <WACOMalt> how can I make a alias of this?
[09:12] <nibbler> how can i add apps to the gnome classic menu bars?
[09:12] <kostkon> nibbler, try to update your package index, by pressing reload in synaptic
[09:12] <WACOMalt> hold alt and right click to get any customization menus I think
[09:12] <WACOMalt> I dont use it though, may be wrong
[09:12] <WACOMalt> I just switched to cinnamon.
[09:12] <nibbler> kostkon, its all resolved.... thanks for your comment anyway.... was just complaining about the out-of-the-box bugs of 12.04.x alternate installer
[09:13] <kostkon> nibbler, no prob. althoug, i am not sure it was a bug. nevertheless, i hope you enjoy 12.04 :)
[09:14] <flashbang> 12.04 is terrible with my pc
[09:14] <WACOMalt> so anyone know why ./path/to/binary doesnt work to run a binary?
[09:15] <bazhang> WACOMalt, what are you trying to do , which binary
[09:15] <nibbler> wachw, is it executable (attribute)? is the FS mounted in a way that allows executables?
[09:16] <WACOMalt> yes I can run it fine
[09:16] <WACOMalt> if I am in that folder
[09:16] <WACOMalt> but doing ./ with a path in it doesnt work
[09:16] <nibbler> WACOMalt, then it is searching for some dependencies in the current folder
[09:16] <nibbler> WACOMalt, strace -eopen ./path/to/file
[09:16] <WACOMalt> strace?
[09:16] <bodhy> goodmorning all... can you help me? i upgrade from 8.10 ubuntu to 9.10 now get sudo do-release-upgrade e give me Checking for a new ubuntu release Failed Upgrade tool signature Failed Upgrade tool Done downloading             Failed to fetch Fetching the upgrade failed. There may be a network problem.
[09:16] <bodhy> how resolve this?
[09:16] <dr_willis>  WACOMalt  whats the exact command line you are ysing?
[09:17] <nibbler> WACOMalt, will tell you which files it is trying to open, output might look a bit messy if you are not used to it
[09:17] <bazhang> bodhy, both of those are end of line
[09:17] <bodhy> i have modified sources.list and metarelease but dont work
[09:17] <nibbler> WACOMalt, but first, what is the exact output that appears if you run it that way?
[09:17] <WACOMalt> strace -eopen ./usr/local/minecraft/MCMA2_Linux_x86_64            strace: ./usr/local/minecraft/MCMA2_Linux_x86_64: command not found
[09:17] <bodhy> yes bazhang
[09:17] <bazhang> bodhy, modified to what
[09:17] <WACOMalt> it cant find the file
[09:17] <nibbler> WACOMalt, try it without the first .
[09:17] <dr_willis> WACOMalt:  i dont think you want ./the/full/path
[09:18] <WACOMalt> runs fine, but in the wrong folder
[09:18] <dr_willis> the . means current directory
[09:18] <bodhy> i use http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[09:18] <dr_willis> bbl
[09:18] <WACOMalt> but ./ also means run
[09:18] <WACOMalt> so how do I combine the two?
[09:18] <nibbler> WACOMalt, nope, it does not. /usr/local/minecraft/MCMA2_Linux_x86_64
[09:18] <dr_willis> ./ does not mean 'run' it means the local directory
[09:18] <WACOMalt> ah
[09:19] <WACOMalt> ok that mostly works
[09:19] <nibbler> WACOMalt, it makes the difference between absolute and relative path
[09:19] <dr_willis> its a path for the current directory. :)
[09:19] <WACOMalt> but it's still launching in the wrong folder
[09:19] <WACOMalt> it needs to launch in ITS folder
[09:19] <nibbler> WACOMalt, cd /usr/local/minecraft/MCMA2_Linux_x86_64 && /usr/local/minecraft/MCMA2_Linux_x86_64
[09:19] <bazhang> bodhy, you are trying to upgrade from 8.10 then 9.10 to ??? what finally
[09:19] <g_> bazhang: nothing is muted.. I seem to have 2 cards one is the HDMI I guess... also another problem I just installed nvidia driver current and all the displays changed.. (no hdmi, bad resolution..)
[09:20] <WACOMalt> basically what I am trying to do is run that in a screen. my current command has been cd /usr/local/minecraft/ and then ./MCMAblahblah
[09:20] <WACOMalt> but I want to make an alias of that
[09:20] <WACOMalt> would I have to put the CD part into the screen command itself?
[09:20] <bodhy> bazhang have already increased from 8.10 to 9.10
[09:20] <bodhy> now I have to take the next step
[09:20] <bazhang> bodhy, and 9.10 to what (is the final goal)
[09:21] <nibbler> WACOMalt, alias runminecraft='cd /foo; ./foo'
[09:21] <bodhy> 9.10 to 10.04
[09:21] <WACOMalt> nibbler, and if I run that, will my current session wind up in that folder?
[09:21] <bazhang> bodhy, then 10.04 to 12.04?
[09:21] <WACOMalt> I need to run this command, from outside of that folder, and stay outside of that folder
[09:21] <bodhy> yes :D
[09:21] <nibbler> WACOMalt, why?
[09:22] <WACOMalt> because the people running it I dont want to be in that folder too often
[09:22] <flashbang> bazhang ,you can keep 10.04 for another year
[09:22] <WACOMalt> how does this look to you? alias minecraft screen -dmS minecraft cd /usr/local/minecraft/; ./MCMA2_Linux_x86_64
[09:22] <bazhang> flashbang, of this I am well, aware, thanks
[09:22] <bazhang> minus the ,
[09:23] <bodhy> bazhang: you know help me for that error? I do not understand why from 8.10 to 9.10 went well and now not working
[09:23] <nibbler> WACOMalt, you'd have a screen permanently lurking in this dirty directory....
[09:23] <WACOMalt> that's fine
[09:23] <WACOMalt> they will control it via the aliases only
[09:23] <WACOMalt> startminecraft, stop minecraft
[09:23] <bazhang> bodhy, what does lsb_release -a say now
[09:24] <bodhy> 9.10 karmic but i start by 8.10 intrepid
[09:24] <nibbler> WACOMalt, an alias is defined by "alias newcommand='whatever to execute'". and its not permanently defined by just executing this one once
[09:24] <bodhy> No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID:	Ubuntu Description:	Ubuntu 9.10 Release:	9.10 Codename:	karmic
[09:25] <bazhang> bodhy, and you fully updated karmic?
[09:25] <g_> back again.. I might have to install kubuntu from scratch.. I tried to install nvidia driver - everything collapsed - I cant have sound :(
[09:25] <bodhy> bazhang: I think so
[09:25] <bazhang> bodhy, how about paste.ubuntu.com with your sources.list
[09:26] <blackshirt> hello
[09:26] <WACOMalt> nibbler, ok this command is launching it in my current session, forgoing the screen altogether. any idea why? alias startminecraft='screen -dmS minecraft cd /usr/local/minecraft/; ./MCMA2_Linux_x86_64'
[09:26] <bodhy> blackshirt: what?
[09:26] <bazhang> bodhy, pastebin
[09:27] <blackshirt> bodhy, do you want to upgrade ?
[09:27] <WACOMalt> also nibbler I know I need to add this alias to a file somewhere to make it permanant, where is that?
[09:27] <nibbler> WACOMalt, i'd guess you need to do some more quoting within the screen -S "..."
[09:27] <bodhy> blackshirt:  my sources.list deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main universe restricted multiverse and moore
[09:27] <nibbler> WACOMalt, not sure, guess .bashrc would be a good place or such
[09:27] <bazhang> bodhy, pastebin the whole thing
[09:27] <bodhy> blackshirt: to 9.10 to 10.*
[09:28] <blackshirt> bodhy, bazhang want it, not me
[09:28] <bazhang> bodhy, to paste.ubuntu.com
[09:28] <WACOMalt> hmm ok this time it does nothing, no errors, no screens exist. alias startminecraft='screen -dmS minecraft "cd /usr/local/minecraft/; ./MCMA2_Linux_x86_64"'
[09:28] <bodhy> I do not understand pastebin
[09:28] <codemaniac> WACOMalt: there is also .screenrc where you can command screen better
[09:29] <bazhang> bodhy, it's a website
[09:29] <bazhang> !pastebin | bodhy
[09:29] <blackshirt> bodhy, actually, if you want do upgrades to newer releases, you should do it with minimum install,that willl reduce your risk to fail
[09:29] <codemaniac> WACOMalt:you can have your default screens on startup through screenrc file
[09:29] <bazhang> blackshirt, thats not helping
[09:30] <WACOMalt> default screens? what do you mean by that
[09:30] <bodhy> I have to change from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com with pastebin right?
[09:30] <bodhy> in the sources.list
[09:30] <blackshirt> bazhang, i'm just sitting here for a seconds, i don't know what bodhy want trying to do
[09:31] <decci> Need an AWK script that connects to an RS 232 device that will have to have a background thread constantly reading 2 com ports for data received and send them to 2 standard out files.I wanted to get this as done in awk because i know it works, has no dependency no rpm, no fiddle code script that works. I understand that awk is not multi thread and it does buffer, what i need is a real time simple port monitor that will deposit its out
[09:31] <bazhang> blackshirt, suggesting the mini.iso for upgrading version is not good advice
[09:31] <segv> yeah
[09:31] <bodhy> blackshirt: sorry for my translade english, i start to 8.10 upgrade to 9.10 and now i wont upgrade moore but give me a error
[09:31] <nibbler> decci, what about two awk scripts? one for each port?
[09:32] <MonkeyDust> decci  better ask in #bash or #networking
[09:32] <bodhy> baddd english :D
[09:32] <blackshirt> bazhang, i don't mean for mini iso, i mean for a basic system, thats i'm thinking about
[09:33] <WACOMalt> I dont get how alias is passing (or not) my commands to the screen when it opens...
[09:33] <err-or> twitchie: solved, purged nfs-kernel-server rpcbind nfs-common, reinstalled nfs-kernel-server. working
[09:34] <flashbang> I don't keep much things in my computer ,when i upgrade a new version ,i just make a usb stick  installer to get a fully fresh system.
[09:34] <blackshirt> bodhy, if there an error, you should describe more detail..thats would help so much people who suggest helping you..
[09:36] <blackshirt> Bodhy, maybe pastebin the error was a great step to going to solve the problem
[09:36] <metallica> hola

[09:44] <gloni> brb
[09:44] <decci> nibbler: yes
[09:45] <decci> nibbler: what i need is a real time simple port monitor that will deposit its output to a standard out txt file. I want to run two instance of the script to monitor two ports since i need both feeds
[09:45] <qwebirc70805> This never would've happened when I was a boy!

[09:49] <blackshirt> let's kick the xibond...
[09:49] <qwebirc70805> Back in my day we didn't have to fight over the remote. We actually had to get up off our tuckus and walk to the tv and actually change the channel manually. Now shut up and give me the remote you little rugrats.

I do: "rsync -r /media/truecrypt1/ /media/truecrypt2/" then "sudo renice +20 -p $(pidof truecrypt rsync); sudo ionice -c 3 -p $(pidof truecrypt rsync)". Is there something else I can do so I notice the least possible of the running rsync process?
[09:55] <err-or> g_: try opening jockey-gtk and activate it with this little tool. always worked here
[09:55] <err-or> g_: you rebooted yes?
[09:59] <thechef> How can I get more verbosity on the Ubuntu Ones syncing process?
[09:59] <WACOMalt> please can anyone please help me with my very simple shell script? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1251351/ It is supposed to open a screen, detached, and cd that screen to a folder. Not working at all. If I manually connect to the screen I can see it's still in the folder I rant he command from.
[10:00] <thechef> I want to see the  progress of a file, or the current file, or files
[10:00] <MonkeyDust> thechef  use rsync --progress
[10:01] <MonkeyDust> thechef  nvm, it's ubuntu one, I misread
[10:01] <WACOMalt> anyone up for reading my 2 line bash script? :/ Its 2am and I need to sleep T_T
[10:02] <s0126h> is it true that it's not possible to make 30 day trial app for linux
[10:02] <asdfn> if I don't use Gnome, where should I customize my fonts settings?
[10:02] <err-or> s0126h: why you shouldn't be able to do that?
[10:03] <MonkeyDust> s0126h  some linux products are commercial, so it should be possible, but i guess then it's not under GPL
[10:03] <s0126h> how is 30 day trial app possible in linux without registry
[10:03] <WACOMalt> s0126h, if its open source that wont work, but there is NOTHING limiting you from making a 30 day trial.
[10:03] <WACOMalt> same way as on OS X
[10:04] <MonkeyDust> s0126h  better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:04] <WACOMalt> registry isnt the only way to accomplish a countdown :P nor the best.
[10:04] <WACOMalt> Well, if no one can help me with 2 lines of bash.. I guess I should just come back in the daytime...
[10:05] <s0126h> wacomalt then how do they prevent a user from uninstalling and reinstalling and  start fresh new 30 day trial again
[10:05] <WACOMalt> have it phone home
[10:05] <WACOMalt> there are a million ways to tackle that. and you act like the registry isnt editable? O_o
[10:06] <WACOMalt> Ok.. well sleep time then. Maybe someone with bash experience will  be in tomorrow
[10:07] <thechef> MonkeyDust: is there a way to access Ubuntu One using rsync? ubuntone-syncd seems to be a weird non-understandable and unreliable blobby blackbox
[10:07] <nibbler> s0126h, i'd take the mac adress or some other hashed hardware versions, and request permission to run online. will do good enough
[10:07] <Knight7> hey i have a video file with codec H.264 / AVC and i cant go to a specific position in the video, just watch it from the beginning to end
[10:07] <Knight7> *totem video player
[10:07] <MonkeyDust> thechef  just checked, didn't find such option
[10:08] <Ben64> Knight7: have you tried in mplayer or mplayer2
[10:08] <Ramtron> Yo, anyone know anything about android-SDK for linux?
[10:09] <Ben64> !anyone | Ramtron
[10:09] <Ramtron> I've already asked my question.
[10:09] <Ben64> No, you didn't
[10:09] <Ramtron> Ben64: Do you know anything about Android-SDK for Linux?
[10:10] <Ben64> Just ask your question, nobody can help you until you do
[10:10] <nibbler> Ramtron, if anyone would answer "yes", you would ask your real question
[10:10] <Knight7> Ben64: ive tried it with vlc and vlc even doesnt start the file... i think the file is broken but is there a "workaround" maybe?
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> thechef  there's this   http://askubuntu.com/questions/16592/how-can-i-tell-whether-ubuntu-one-file-sync-is-working-and-what-progress-it-is
[10:11] <Ben64> Knight7: you could re-encode it with mencoder or ffmpeg
[10:11] <Zeno> Weird question: What happens if you reboot a server while ubuntu is in the middle of installing?  Does it lose all the data it'd made so far, or does it retain where it left off?
[10:12] <g_> err-or: yep I did reboot.. thats when things broke :) (no hdmi, wrong resolution)
[10:12] <MrM> anyone here familiar with the "sensors"-command? I'm trying to make sense of the output... what is the temperature reported by coretemp-isa-0000?
[10:12] <bekks> Zeno: Data crrectly written will be retained, data in the process of writing (already in the buffer, but not on the disk yet) will be lost most likely.
[10:12] <g_> err-or: funnily the generic driver worked like a charm.
[10:12] <Zeno> bekks, Mostly I'm interested in the network configuration
[10:13] <bekks> Zeno: And is stored in files. The above applies.
[10:13] <sidzi> if i do Windows system recovery on C: , does my ubuntu get erased too.
[10:14] <Zeno> bekks, Thanks, so if you reboot, even in mid-installation, the server will come up and reconnect to the network
[10:14] <g_> err-or: this tool seems to have find the updated nvidia driver version, activating now.. lets see.
[10:14] <bekks> Zeno: Not necessarilly.
[10:14] <bekks> sidzi: You should have a backup before doing so.
[10:15] <g_> err-or:  "sorry installation of this driver failed.. check the log etc.etc...."
[10:16] <err-or> g_: maybe first uninstall the previously installed one
[10:16] <sidzi> do I make complete back up of ubuntu  using "Deja Vu"
[10:16] <g_> err-or:  how do I do that?
[10:17] <g_> ah ok apt-get remove :)
[10:22] <Ramtron> How do I navigate to a file through the terminal? I'm not finding any information on it.
[10:23] <jrib> !cli | Ramtron
[10:23] <jrib> Ramtron: cd DIRECTORY
[10:23] <Ramtron> cd desktop then?
[10:23] <jrib> Ramtron: case is important.  So: cd Desktop
[10:23] <diverdude> did the new ubuntu come out yet or in the ind of the month first?
[10:24] <jrib> !12.10 | diverdude
[10:24] <bazhang> diverdude, October
[10:24] <Ramtron> what would I type to open Android-sdk/tools/android?
[10:24] <diverdude> bazhang: so tomorrow?
[10:24] <Ramtron> from the desktop
[10:24] <bazhang> diverdude, #ubuntu+1
[10:25] <jrib> Ramtron: go to Desktop, then go to Android-sdk/tools/android
[10:25] <Ramtron> I mean, I'm trying to run /.android through the terminal
[10:25] <jrib> Ramtron: or you can provide a full path (note ~ expands to your $HOME): cd ~/Desktop/Android-sdk/tools/android
[10:25] <jrib> Ramtron: then go to the directory it is in
[10:26] <Ramtron> Hmm, I'm such a Linux noob
[10:26] <diverdude> will QQ ship with php 5.4?
[10:27] <jrib> diverdude: #ubuntu+1
[10:27] <diverdude> jrib: nobody is answering there
[10:27] <decci> I want to build Ubuntu 10.04 ISO from scratch so I can include mega_raid sas driver for Dell R620. Ubuntu 12.04.1 has that driver
[10:27] <Ramtron> android-sdk-linux/tools/android: 1: android-sdk-linux/tools/android: java: not found
[10:27] <jrib> diverdude: that's the channel for help with 12.10.  You can check http://packages.ubuntu.com for package versions currently available
[10:28] <Ramtron> android-sdk-linux/tools/android: 1: android-sdk-linux/tools/android: java: not found
[10:28] <Ramtron> android-sdk-linux/tools/android: 110: exec: java: not found
[10:28] <decci> Is it possible to include the driver at installation time.
[10:28] <Ramtron> The guide I'm following says this; Mac or Linux: Open a terminal and navigate to the /tools directory in the Android SDK, then execute ./android
[10:28] <jrib> Ramtron: so did you do that?
[10:29] <Ramtron> I don't quite know how.
[10:29] <Ramtron> Everything I try fails
[10:29] <diverdude> jrib: thx
[10:29] <jrib> Ramtron: what directory are you in now? Type « pwd »
[10:29] <Ramtron> Desktop
[10:29] <jrib> Ramtron: that's not the output of pwd
[10:29] <Ramtron> The folder is android-sdk-linux/tools
[10:30] <Ramtron> /home/ramtron/desktop, the folder is on my Desktop as well
[10:30] <jrib> Ramtron: you're in "desktop" with a lowercase "d"?
[10:30] <Ramtron> nop
[10:30] <Ramtron> I just mistyped
[10:31] <jrib> Ramtron: great.  You can check that the android-sdk-linux directory is in your current directory (~/Desktop), by listing all of the files first.  Type « ls »
[10:31] <Ramtron> I see it there
[10:31] <jrib> Ramtron: so, now you can "cd" to it.  Do that now
[10:32] <Ramtron> awesome, now LS then do tools?
[10:32] <Ramtron> ls*
[10:32] <jrib> Ramtron: sure
[10:32] <Ramtron> now I should be able to type ./android to execute the file?
[10:33] <jrib> Ramtron: yes, though I think you don't have java installed
[10:33] <Ramtron> I don't think so either. How would I go about that?
[10:33] <jrib> !java | Ramtron
[10:33] <Ramtron> Thanks!
[10:34] <Ramtron> Before I do this, typing:  sudo apt-get purge oracle-java7-installer*
[10:34] <Ramtron>  sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
[10:34] <Ramtron>  sudo ppa-purge ppa:eugenesan/java
[10:34] <Ramtron>  sudo apt-get clean
[10:34] <Ramtron>  sudo apt-get update
[10:34] <FloodBot1> Ramtron: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:34] <Ramtron> will install Java and enable me to open this?
[10:35] <jrib> Ramtron: well if you really want that version of java, I guess so
[10:35] <Ramtron> I have no idea, I just want whichever will make this work.
[10:35] <jrib> Ramtron: you should be able to use the openjdk as far as I know
[10:36] <Ramtron> I see, I thought all of that was for windows, so I looked for a command. Seems to be working then
[10:37] <diverdude> are LTS editions really only 5 years?
[10:38] <jrib> !lts | diverdude
[10:38] <jrib> diverdude: you can upgrade to next LTS at that point
[10:38] <diverdude> jrib: updating is not always that easy
[10:39] <jrib> diverdude: because?
[10:39] <MonkeyDust> diverdude  by then, your current LTS will be like a dinosaur
[10:39] <diverdude> jrib: 5 years is not enough i would say
[10:39] <bekks> diverdude: Because you want to run an even older OS? :P
[10:39] <bekks> diverdude: Whatever you think about it - the LTS support is 5 years.
[10:40] <MonkeyDust> diverdude  a policy cannot be changed for the needs of one single user
[10:40] <blz> Does anybody know where I can get a native statusbar icon for skype?
[10:40] <blz> i.e. a monochrome icon
[10:41] <Ramtron> is "./" always the command to execute a program?
[10:41] <bekks> Ramtron: No. "./" is needed when the current directory is not in the PATH.
[10:41] <nibbler> Ramtron, no, thats the beginning of a relative path
[10:41] <g_> any idea why I have no sound at all?
[10:41] <Ramtron> I see
[10:42] <diverdude> blz: a monochrome icon :D hehe thats a pretty boring icon
[10:42] <nibbler> how woud i add applets to my gnome classic menubar?
[10:42] <diverdude> blz: i dont there is such a thing as monochrom icons
[10:42] <MonkeyDust> nibbler  super-alt right click on the bar
[10:42] <angs> what is the command for installing JDK? I used apt-get update & apt-get install jdk but it did not work.
[10:43] <nibbler> MonkeyDust, thanks.... tried mostly all other combos, but mainly without suer
[10:43] <nibbler> p
[10:43] <jrib> !java | angs
[10:43] <decci> angs: apt-get list sun-openjdk???
[10:43] <ShapeShifter499> what would you guys suggest ubuntu native or ubuntu virtual (as in vbox or vmware)?
[10:44] <jrib> ShapeShifter499: well why do you want to virtualize?
[10:44] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: On a real machine - native. In a vm - virtualized.
[10:44] <angs> decci: it outputs "E: Invalid operation list"
[10:44] <g_> system doesn't want to install the frickin nvidia driver
[10:44] <ShapeShifter499> I'm frustrated most drivers aren't working or can't be found
[10:44] <g_> I'm on KDE
[10:44] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: Which drivers in particular?
[10:44] <blz> diverdude, all the statusbar icons by default are monochrome... lol
[10:45] <g_> ShapeShifter499: welcome to linux :-)(
[10:45] <blz> or at least, that's what I thought they were called
[10:45] <decci> angs: sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre
[10:45] <angs> decci: it works now, thank you
[10:45] <Ramtron> jrib: Finally, Android opens. Thanks for the help.
[10:45] <jrib> Ramtron: no problem
[10:45] <decci> angs: If you want to develop Java programs then install the openjdk-7-jdk package.
[10:46] <ShapeShifter499> so I'm thinking going back to windows 7 and either running ubuntu in vmware unity mode or slimming down windows and running ubuntu in vmware full screen
[10:46] <angs> thank you decci
[10:46] <decci> angs: welcome
[10:46] <MonkeyDust> ShapeShifter499  plenty options, whatever works for you
[10:46] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, scanner, dialup/fax modem, iphone upgrading or restoring firmware... so far
[10:47] <blackshirt> shapeshifter499, what drivers are you trying to search?
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> I can't get my Canon scanner to work, either
[10:47] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: itunes never worked on linux, and isnt designed to do so. sane provides the scanner infrastructure and most likely, you'll need a fax server, etc. to use your modem for faxes.
[10:47] <ShapeShifter499> blackshirt, scanner, dialup/fax modem, and last one isn't a driver but iphone upgrading or restoring firmware... so far
[10:48] <c2tarun> can anyone please help me with energy star? my enery star is getting reset to Standby: 48    Suspend: 72    Off: 96 no matter how many times I change it disable it or anything. I am facing this problem since many days, can anyone please help?
[10:49] <bekks> c2tarun: Whats an "Energy Star"? Some new alien technology? :)
[10:49] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, well because 100% of my stuff works on windows I'll go back to that and run ubuntu in vmware
[10:50] <c2tarun> bekks: ohh... :) nope, it is something that controls the monitor on/off and saves some battery. try executing 'xset -q' on your machine, you'll see a dpms at the end, thats the energy star
[10:50] <blackshirt> shapeshifter499, thats a good choice :d
[10:50] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: You could use windows in a vm as well.
[10:50] <ShapeShifter499> however I have ubuntu natively running on my netbook with everything working better then windows xD
[10:50] <jrib> c2tarun: if you're looking for random suggestions (since you've been at this for a while now): have you tried logging into different (preferably simpler, like fluxbox for example) environments?  Does it get reset at boot, or only after login?
[10:50] <bekks> c2tarun: I dont see any energy stars here. All I have is dynamic power management :)
[10:51] <ShapeShifter499> netbook - with ubuntu everything and wifi now now works      big laptop - loads of things don't work under ubuntu... go figure
[10:51] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: "loads..." - you named only three, and one of them is well known for every itunes user :)
[10:52] <c2tarun> jrib: it gets reset at its will :( some times in a min, some times in 10 or 15. (at least I am not able to find a pattern). It has no connection is restarting/rebooting
[10:52] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, is there a way to pass through the dial up modem to the windows vm?
[10:52] <gipzo> Hi, guys
[10:52] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: Unless it is connected to your parallel port - yes. I'd use virtualbox instead of vmware.
[10:53] <gipzo> Anyone know how to copy all files from system to another drive on working system?
[10:53] <gipzo> I have ubuntu running from usb-stick, and want to copy it to another usb stick (second already have mbr)
[10:53] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, well I think I fixed the random shutdown in ubuntu with drivers from a bleeding edge ppa but I don't know
[10:54] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, xorg drivers that is
[10:54] <gipzo> Ubuntu vesrion is ubuntu server
[10:55] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, how do I pass though the dial up exactly?  I've ran vm windows before and never saw an option
[10:55] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: So thats a solved issue. Two left :)
[10:55] <bekks> Actually - just one :)
[10:55] <gogeta> ShapeShifter499: do what with dialup now
[10:56] <ShapeShifter499> gogeta, get it working somehow, even if it means running windows in vm for it
[10:56] <gogeta> !dialup
[10:57] <ShapeShifter499> tried that already... the only driver seems messed up
[10:57] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: Which driver did you use?
[10:57] <ShapeShifter499> martin-modem
[10:58] <gogeta> ShapeShifter499: you check witch driver you nedded
[10:58] <ShapeShifter499> gogeta, yes "martin-modem"
[10:58] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: Wrong. "martian-modem" was the package which was suggested to you.
[10:58] <gogeta> does it dial
[10:58] <gogeta> oh lol
[10:59] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, ok but thats what I tried to get my modem working
[10:59] <gogeta> its probly a soft modem
[11:00] <gogeta> use the tool in the howto
[11:00] <gogeta> you probly need the linmosem driver from dell
[11:00] <gogeta> linmodem
[11:02] <gogeta> it will tell you whhat modem you have and from there the correct drivee
[11:04] <ShapeShifter499> this blows......
[11:05] <ShapeShifter499> I'll brb
[11:05] <ShapeShifter499> I made a mistake with 32 bit over 64 bit on my laptop so I'm going to reinstall the right one and try one more thing with the drivers I have
[11:06] <ShapeShifter499> if nothing happens I'll go back to windows
[11:06] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: Why dont you just stick with the howto to get it working?
[11:07] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, I did, it landed me with martin-modem
[11:07] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, I couldn't find the other "proprietary driver"
[11:07] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, I'm running 12.04 bte
[11:08] <ShapeShifter499> *btw
[11:08] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: martian-modem, not martin-modem.
[11:08] <ShapeShifter499> oops yea xD
[11:08] <ShapeShifter499> bekks, well you know what I mean :p
[11:09] <g__> guys can u help I am trying to setup my display for hours...
[11:09] <bekks> ShapeShifter499: So where's that howto exactly, and where are you stuck, exactly?
[11:09] <g__> cant get to make nvidia work...
[11:09] <gogeta> !dialup
[11:10] <gogeta> right there
[11:10] <gogeta> well anyways it points him to scan modem
[11:10] <gogeta> there it e:-) will.list the type he has
[11:11] <bekks> All we need is the URL now... :P
[11:11] <gogeta> scroll up
[11:14] <gogeta> isn't using dialup a bit obsolete
[11:14] <gry> not too much
[11:14] <bekks> There are still people/companies that do need faxing.
[11:15] <gogeta> Eva's cough
[11:15] <gogeta> efax
[11:16] <gogeta> and I think a few webmail clients have faxing hiddin
[11:16] <g_> guys I cant set one of my monitors to its proper resolution.. all problems started when I installed nvidia driver... I think I removed it but I guess something is blocked
[11:16] <g_> please help...
[11:17] <ShapeShifter499> I give..... it seems WAY  easier (especially for a noob like me) to go back to windows and run ubuntu in a vm
[11:17] <TJ-> g_: How are you setting the resolution? Using the System Settings > Display, or Nvidia X Settings ?
[11:17] <g_> Display
[11:18] <g_> TJ-: (i'm on KDE) so I m using the menus Display.. the only resolution available is 640x
[11:18] <ShapeShifter499> if I ever need native ubuntu I just use my netbook
[11:18] <gogeta> ShapeShifter499: yea if you can't use a simple tool like scanmodem
[11:18] <TJ-> g_: Unless you're using the very latest Nvidia 304.xx driver from precise-proposed, you'll have to use "Nvidia X Settings" to configure the screens
[11:18] <g_> TJ-:  got rid of nvidia setting as nothng worked (conflicts with my sound card etc etc..)
[11:19] <g_> TJ-: as I said I apt-get removed all nvidia related things as my problems began after Installing them...
[11:19] <g_> TJ-: Display was working just fine before :(
[11:19] <g_> TJ-:  would just like the general driver, not 3d stuff needed here..
[11:19] <gogeta> ShapeShifter499: I set up a modem years ago its a non issue
[11:20] <ShapeShifter499> gogeta, my system is messed up anyways.... I need to reinstall to 64 bit ubuntu  first
[11:20] <TJ-> g_: If you've removed the nvidia proprietary drivers, then the system should be using the nouveau drivers. Check the log-file to confirm that ( /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
[11:20] <g_> TJ-:  which line am I searching for?
[11:20] <ShapeShifter499> its currently 32 bit with chunks of 64 bit installed
[11:20] <ShapeShifter499> so horribly messed up
[11:20] <gogeta> ShapeShifter499: umm you can't do that
[11:20] <g_> TJ-:  yeah it's nouveau...
