[16:30] <tomasm-> is there any legitimacy on this? I just have a clean install, though i do run 'transmission' from time to time
[16:30] <soreau> AceKing: Well that's a pretty big problem and I'm not sure where to start diagnosing it. First thing, make sure the drivers are loaded for the network hardware
[16:30] <VictorCL> lost 20 minutes looking trhough menus
[16:30] <AceKing> soreau, I already did that. I even deactivated and reactivated the drivers
[16:31] <AceKing> soreau, and restarted the network connection
[16:31] <MonkeyDust> VictorCL: try Alt-F2 gnome-control-center
[16:31] <soreau> AceKing: How exactly did you 'deactivated and reactivated the drivers'>
[16:31] <soreau> ?
[16:32] <AceKing> soreau, I went into System/ Hardware Drivers
[16:32] <ichat> any other hints on how to get my  bcm 4311 working...
[16:32] <soreau> AceKing: You shouldn't have anything there for your ethernet card..
[16:33] <martian> Lasers: http://martian.mit.edu/screen.png I'm wondering if there is some way to specify items to be siblings of 'Mars' and 'Desktop'
[16:33] <soreau> most all use chips that have open drivers
[16:33] <h00k> tomasm-: Are you running a mail server on your system?
[16:33] <AceKing> soreau, No, it's for the wireless
[16:33] <soreau> and that driver utility is exclusively for proprietary drivers
[16:33] <AceKing> soreau, OK
[16:33] <Lasers> martian: How many folders under "Bookmarks"
[16:33] <tomasm-> h00k, perhaps coincidentally.... but it's behind a firewall i believe
[16:33] <AceKing> sorsis, The update must have really screwed things up
[16:34] <martian> Lasers: eleven, and yes it is 11.04, but on 'classic'
[16:34] <soreau> AceKing: I'm not talking about wireless right now. If you have no eth0 interface, something is really wrong. You need to find out if the drivers are loaded for the network card
[16:34] <AceKing> soreau, I may just need to do a reinstall
[16:34] <h00k> tomasm-: perhaps check with #ubuntu-server if you have one running on your system, someone may be using it as a relay or something.
[16:34] <soreau> AceKing: Check the output of 'dmesg' for errors
[16:34] <AceKing> soreau, That is what I am saying
[16:34] <nn> is there some sort of glib package that i can install from terminal?
[16:34] <tomasm-> h00k, i can check the logs i guess.... thanks
[16:34] <Lasers> martian: Here you go. 11 folders. If you have 4-5ish, it all would be in the menu, but too many, so Bookmark sub.
[16:35] <Lasers> martian: You can fix it by downloading the source code. Change the code from 4 or 5 to... 20? I did it once long time ago. :3
[16:35] <SmokeyD> soreau, but don't the ubuntu maintainers also patch packages? So I guess there has to be some ubuntu specific repository somewhere doesn't there? I mean, the version numbers 0.9.8k-7ubuntu8.6 and 0.9.8o-1ubuntu are also ubuntu specific
[16:36] <martian> Lasers: Ahh, I see. So if you have a small number of bookmarks, it consolidates them into the main menu. Thanks! I was really just curious what drove the logic behind it.
[16:36] <nn> what is rm -rf?
[16:36] <AceKing> soreau, Not that I can see. I think I'm just going to do a reinstall on the laptop. It will probably be the easiest fix. I appreciate your help!
[16:36] <ikonia> nn: it removes things nn
[16:36] <llutz> nn a bad joke, stop it
[16:36] <soreau> SmokeyD: If you look on packages.ubuntu.com, you can see for each package, they provide the original source tarball, a diff and then their final tarball for the target ubuntu version
[16:36] <paean_> nn, man rm
[16:37] <Lasers> martian: No problem. It annoys me sometimes because I only added one extra folder and that's it.
[16:37] <Lasers> martian: They should at least implement gconf option for the user to change instead of hardcoding in the source.
[16:38] <tomeo> Could anyone recommend an FTP-client for ubuntu which can handle FTP with TLS/SSL for connections?
[16:38] <llutz> tomeo: lftp, filezilla
[16:38] <ikonia> tomeo: that's pretty much a dead technology now
[16:38] <ikonia> tomeo: if people are using ssl - they are using scp over ssh
[16:38] <tomeo> ikonia: well Ill tell the host about that!
[16:39] <tomeo> ikonia: so sftp would be the way to go now?
[16:39] <ikonia> tomeo: it's certainly more modern
[16:41] <bastidrazor> ubottu: tell syadamin|away about away

[16:49] <RenatoSilva> does sudo get executed on exit from sudo -i?
[16:50] <soreau> RenaKunisaki: what?
[16:50] <soreau> gah
[16:51] <soreau> Of course there's multiple nicks starting with the same four letters all throughout this channel
[16:52] <RenatoSilva> soreau: what for me?
[16:52] <RenatoSilva> soreau: quite unlikely to find another Renato, even here though
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> RenatoSilva: sure, type ren then hit TAB
[16:52] <soreau> No, I just like to address random people in the channel and ask them 'what?'
[16:52] <RenatoSilva> ActionParsnip: sorry? what are you talking about? I have no idea
[16:53] <soreau> just to make sure to confuse everyone
[16:53] <RenatoSilva> soreau: ok
[16:53] <soreau> RenatoSilva: Try it: Acti<tab>
[16:53] <soreau> or sor<tab>
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> oh well
[16:53] <soreau> you can hit tab several times to cycle through the matches
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> gone
[16:54] <zastaph> what pays for the massive apt-get traffic?
[16:55] <Shawn__> ActionParsnip, You still able to finish helping me or no?
[16:59] <MonkeyDust> Shawn__: ActionParsnip seems to be gone, better repeat your question
[16:59] <brimestone> hey guys, I'm having a bit of confusion. i have a server that has two nic card. One port goes to the DMZ (Static) and the other one to the LAN(DHCP) but only the LAN port becomes active after a networking restart
[17:00] <Shawn__> Well my wifi on my Dell Inspiron duo with Ubuntu 11.04 suddenly stopped working, its showing that the device is hard blocked and soft blocked, it was working when I first installed and updated Ubuntu but after a couple reboots it just completely stopped
[17:00] <Shawn__> The really really strange thing is that my wifi used to work on the live CD but now my wifi wont even work on that...
[17:01] <soreau> Shawn__: Does it have anything to do with the wifi switch?
[17:01] <MonkeyDust> Shawn__: have you tried nm-applet?
[17:02] <soreau> Shawn__: You may have to unblock it with rfkill
[17:02] <Shawn__> soreau, There is no switch, only an Fn key for it, but that doesnt do anything Ive tried
[17:02] <Shawn__> soreau, Ive tried rfkill unblock all
[17:02] <Shawn__> MonkeyDust, Not sure what you mean
[17:02] <MonkeyDust> Shawn__: type alt-f2 nm-applet
[17:02] <soreau> Shawn__: Does iwconfig show a wireless interface?
[17:02] <Shawn__> One second Im turnig it on
[17:03] <nn> can i install a .rpm file with svn or something similar?
[17:03] <ikonia> nn: no
[17:03] <soreau> MonkeyDust: nm-applet should already be running by default
[17:03] <MonkeyDust> nn: try alien to convert .rpm to .deb
[17:03] <soreau> nn: Do you know what rpm stands for?
[17:04] <nn> no
[17:04] <soreau> nn: It is a package for non-debian systems, specifically, redhat-based ones
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> Shawn__: try unloading then reloading the module, may help
[17:04] <ikonia> nn: good call, alien would not be a wise move
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> nn: is there no deb for the package?
[17:04] <Shawn__> ActionParsnip, How?
[17:05] <nn> not for the version i need i dont think
[17:05] <soreau> ikonia: The good call would be to find the corresponding deb package ;)
[17:05] <ikonia> totally
[17:05] <Shawn__> soreau, iwconfig shows wlan0 yeah
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> Shawn__: the lshw output shows the driver module. run:  sudo modprobe -r name     then run: sudo modprobe name
[17:05] <soreau> Shawn__: Does 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i ssid' show AP's?
[17:06] <Shawn__> soreau, It says network is down
[17:06] <soreau> Shawn__: Try bringing it up first with 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up'
[17:07] <ilea> hi all
[17:08] <Shawn__> soreau, "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
[17:08] <soreau> Shawn__: Try rfkill unblock commands..
[17:09] <LoRez> is there a good place to ask about preseeding?
[17:09] <soreau> Shawn__: Does 'lsmod|grep hp-wmi' show anything by chance?
[17:09] <Shawn__> ActionParsnip, When I turned off the module with -r it shows "network connections now offline" but when I restarted it network still doesnt work
[17:09] <ilea> i tried to run ubuntu live cd first on a acer laptop and when it booted up i could barely see the desctop on the screen
[17:10] <ilea> why?
[17:10] <ilea> i sould adjust from a button or something the screen of the laptop?
[17:10] <soreau> Shawn__: Reloading the module will likely do nothing to help since it's reloaded when you reboot
[17:10] <Shawn__> soreau, No output from that command
[17:10] <soreau> Shawn__: Does 'lsmod|grep hp-wmi' show anything by chance?
[17:10] <soreau> hm
[17:10] <jiltdil> My net connecton goes slow after sometimes and when i reboots the system it  gives speed then after sometimes it slows downs,it is always happening.What might ve the cause for it?
[17:11] <nn> im looking for a libgvc >= 2.8
[17:11] <nn> and i cannot find it
[17:12] <ilea> i tryed ubuntu on a acer laptop and i can varely see the desktop
[17:12] <ilea> anybody got some ideas how to fix or why is like that?
[17:12] <soreau> Shawn__: So you tried rfkill unblock wifi, messing with the Fn button to enable it and scanning with lwlist?
[17:12] <Shawn__> soreau, Yes.  When I press the Fn button for wifi one of the blocked things in rfkill list changes but it still doesnt fix the wifif
[17:13] <soreau> Shawn__: On a whim, I'm going to ask that you try 'sudo modprobe hp-wmi' first, then go through the same procedure again
[17:14] <Shawn__> soreau, No such device it says
[17:14] <Shawn__> soreau, And what procedure
[17:15] <soreau> Shawn__: The whole procedure we've been running.. check iwconfig for wifi iface, run iwlist to scan for AP's, brining up the iface, rfkill etc etc
[17:15] <ilea> thanks for not giving me a answer to my problem
[17:15] <llutz> !patience |ilea
[17:15] <Shawn__> soreau, Well hp-wmi says it doesnt exist
[17:15] <^NiNjA> anyone know if the proprietary ATI driver bug with Gnome 3 is worked out yet in ubuntu 11.10?
[17:15] <llutz> Oneiric support  in #ubuntu+1 , not here ^NiNjA
[17:15] <soreau> Shawn__: If loading hp-wmi gave an error message, make sure it's not loaded with 'lsmod|grep hp-wmi' and if it is, unload it with 'sudo rmmod hp-wmi'
[17:16] <^NiNjA> got ya thx
[17:16] <soreau> Shawn__: That module is really only for HP laptops AFAIU, but it fixes the same problem
[17:16] <soreau> not sure if there's one for dell laptops that does the same thing
[17:16] <Shawn__> soreau, Im on a dell laptop
[17:16] <ilea> why when i boot ubuntu on a acer laptop after it loads i can barely see the desktop on the screen
[17:16] <ilea> ?
[17:16] <Shawn__> soreau, and when I check if hp-wmi is loaded there is no output
[17:16] <soreau> Shawn__: And you're running 'sudo rfkill unblock wifi'?
[17:17] <Shawn__> soreau, Yes
[17:17] <soreau> Shawn__: Then I'm pretty much out of ideas.
[17:17] <ZeidDiez> Would I be able to use an ubuntu 10.10 live cd to burn an ISO? (As in, are there programs to do that within the live CD? Because I've no internet on the machine)
[17:17] <Shawn__> soreau, Can I tell you something interesting
[17:18] <Gentoo64> ZeidDiez, if you have a 2nd cd drive
[17:18] <soreau> Shawn__: As long as it's related to ubuntu ;)
[17:18] <ZeidDiez> Gentoo64, I'm booting the livecd from USB
[17:18] <Gentoo64> ZeidDiez, yes you can then
[17:18] <ZeidDiez> Thank you!
[17:18] <ilea> like i can find something on a forum this big or on ask ubuntu ubotu
[17:19] <Shawn__> soreau, No its about my problem still.  In rfkill list, it shows 1: dell-wifi: Wireless LAN soft blocked: Yes, Hard blocked: yes         Then it also shows phy0: Wireless LAN   Soft Blocked: No  Hard blocked: yes    The Phy0 on eis the one that gets unblocked by pressing the Fn key
[17:20] <soreau> Shawn__: What does iwconfig show for wifi iface's though?
[17:20] <E3D3> ilea: I'm a noob and can't help you but you can also try channel #ubuntu-beginners (although you might need more patience there)
[17:21] <RUSH2112> REGISTER
[17:21] <Cong> I tried ubuntu 11.04 and it's giving me headaches. Not only do I not have sound it make his short burst sound randomly.
[17:21] <brimestone> hey guys, I'm having a bit of confusion. i have a server that has two nic card. One port goes to the DMZ (Static) and the other one to the LAN(DHCP) but only the LAN port becomes active after a networking restart
[17:21] <Cong> 10.04 works fine.
[17:21] <Shawn__> soreau, Says wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn   ESSID: off/any    Mode: Managed  Access Point: N/A  tx-power = off   Retry long limit: 7  RTS thr: off   Fragment thr: offf   Power management: on
[17:21] <soreau> hm hm
[17:22] <soreau> Shawn__: Do you have any settings related to this in your system bios?
[17:22] <jaimef> so are there any additional virtualization solutions for ubuntu other than xen/kvm/vmware?
[17:22] <Shawn__> soreau, Ill check
[17:23] <llutz> jaimef: virtualbox
[17:23] <soreau> Shawn__: And make sure you're playing with the right wifi switch..
[17:23] <dp> is it possible to run ubuntu without using plymouth?
[17:24] <Cong> why not it's a program, isn't it?
[17:24] <dp> yeah, but from what I've read, it cannot be disabled
[17:24] <Shawn__> soreau, Theres only one wifi thing on my whole laptop.   In the bios I fiound something interesting   "Wireless Switch/Hotkey Mode"  It can be changed from None, WLAN, BT, WLAN and BT, WWAN, WWAN and WLAN, WWAN and BT or All
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> Cong: can you give the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh; chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh; ./alsa-info.sh
[17:24] <soreau> Shawn__: Try messing with those options
[17:25] <LrIm> HMM, I need to update my dell bios... .exe only. What to do, what to do..
[17:25] <iceroot> LrIm: ask dell
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> LrIm: some BIOSes in some Dells can be updated in Ubuntu
[17:25] <iceroot> LrIm: e.g. freedos or something else but that is related to dell
[17:25] <RUSH2112> hi
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> LrIm: http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2007/09/howto-easily-upgrade-dell-bios-in.html
[17:26] <Shawn__> soreau, You arent going to believe it
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> LrIm: http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware
[17:27] <Shawn__> soreau, I set it so that the wireless button does "nothing" and now myh wifi works
[17:27] <RUSH2112> hi guys
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> Shawn__: nice
[17:28] <soreau> Shawn__:  :D
[17:28] <Shawn__> soreau, Retarded X_X
[17:28] <Cong> ActionParsnip, no I can't.
[17:28] <soreau> Shawn__: Computers suck, what can I say ;-)
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> Cong: care to share why, or do you want me to guess....
[17:29] <LrIm> ActionParsnip, That is great and all, but the link to the BIOSes is broken :/
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> LrIm: I was just on the pages...
[17:29] <LrIm> ActionParsnip, http://linux.dell.com/repo/software/bios-hdrs/ ?
[17:30] <Cong> ActionParsnip, it's because I didn't install it, only tried it from USB and now it's not in the USB anymore.
[17:30] <Cong> Hasn't this happend before?
[17:31] <noobivankenobi> hi
[17:31] <johnn> hi, where could I find out if my motherboard is compatible with ubuntu?
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> Cong: doesn't matter, you can do anything in live environment which you can do in an installed OS, just canot reboot
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | johnn
[17:31] <soreau> johnn: If it has an intel or amd processor, it should work..
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> LrIm: if you use the links I gave, you'll be ok
[17:31] <johnn> thanks a lot!
[17:31] <Cong> ActionParsnip, I kinda knew that.
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> Cong: so why is the fact that you are in a live USB environment relevant?
[17:32] <Apple5> hey guis
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> Cong: I asked for the output of a command, which youcan do in either
[17:33] <noobivankenobi> i do have simple probken an amd a3850 apu with 6550 oncpu graphics and  i simply can see anything when i try to install 11.10 beta 2 or daily build , can someone link me a webpage that could help me?
[17:33] <Cong> Kay. I guess I'll put it back into USB then.
[17:33] <JokesOnYou77> Hi all, can someone help me with my keyboard config?  My numpad doesn't work :(
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Cong: either way is good :)
[17:33] <Cong> Gotta download my tools.
[17:33] <Gentoo64> JokesOnYou77, try numlock on
[17:33] <Apple5> can any1 help me has ubuntu from windows 7
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: do the keys make events in xev?
[17:33] <Cong> I'll be back.
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> noobivankenobi: ask in #ubuntu+1 for anything oneiric
[17:34] <RUSH2112> test
[17:34] <JokesOnYou77> Gentoo64: ...thanks, tried that.
[17:34] <noobivankenobi> thanks
[17:34] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: How do I view the xev events?
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: its a terminal command
[17:35] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: I suspect they do, as the Numpad Enter key and the "+" both do something, just not what they're supposed to
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: what about numbers?
[17:35] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: just "$ xev"
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: how do you mean?
[17:37] <OerHeks> JokesOnYou77, does your numpad act like a mouse now ?
[17:37] <OerHeks> hold 6 or 8
[17:38] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: that last one was meant to include a question mark, sorry.  I'd never heard of xev before.  I just read the first few lines of the man page, I get it now more or less.  xev returns some weird stuff when I use the num pad (as compared to when I use other keys)
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: you see what it does though, right
[17:38] <JokesOnYou77> OerHeks: It does!  it moves the mouse!  How did you know/wtf is that?
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> OerHeks: all yours dude
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> :) good catch
[17:39] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: yeah, it's a really cool diagnostic cool for periferals, very useful
[17:39] <macs> how would i do this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/699230/
[17:39] <OerHeks> JokesOnYou77, see keyboard in preferences, it has a tab with mouse emulation , switch that off
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> !cookie | OerHeks
[17:41] <Apple5> how do i find out password
[17:42] <Gentoo64> Apple5, for a user?
[17:42] <JokesOnYou77> OerHeks: Ok, in Keyboard prefs I went to the "Mouse Keys" tab and unchecked the "Pointer can be controlled using the keypad" but it hasn't changed anything, the numpad still operates the mouse.  I have added firefox-stable to repos, but still don't see. 11.04
[17:43] <OerHeks> JokesOnYou77, ActionParsnip see this example > http://omkarverma-ubuntu-tips.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-move-your-mouse-pointer-with.html
[17:43] <llutz> !sudo | Apple5
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> Apple5: no, when you need admin access, prepend the command with sudo
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> Apple5: thats why you see:   sudo apt-get update     etc
[17:44] <genii-around> !info firefox natty
[17:44] <phill> "The vpn connection failed because the vpn service failed to start"  can anyone help with this? thks
[17:44] <Apple5> so i type sudo into terminal?
[17:44] <Apocalypse_dn> genii, so why? 2 days passed since release
[17:45] <JokesOnYou77> OerHeks: No such luck.  However, I just found that when I type in the "test settings" field in Layouts, the "+" key on the numpad produces some kind of machine code, you know the little squares with four letters and numbers in them?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> Apple5: then the command you want after, like I said. Its for when you need admin access
[17:45] <nn> what does 'checking for header' mean?
[17:45] <Apple5> i need the admin access to use updates
[17:45] <Fen-> like sudo apt-get install <package>
[17:45] <Apple5> install updates*
[17:45] <Fen-> like sudo apt-get install update
[17:45] <sean__> whats the diff between ubuntu 11.04 and 10.04
[17:45] <tensorpudding> sean__, newer software
[17:45] <llutz> sean__: one year development
[17:46] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: Ubuntu doesn't work like that, packages aren't updated on a stable release, with some exception (firefox might be one, not sure, but don't expect to see it in a matter of two days)
[17:46] <sean__> 10.04 = more stabel thought right
[17:46] <tensorpudding> sean__, it's like asking what's the difference between windows 7 and windows vista
[17:46] <sean__> stable
[17:46] <tensorpudding> sean__, 10.04 is an LTS release, meaning that it will be supported longer
[17:46] <sean__> which do u perfer 10.04 or 11.04
[17:46] <Gentoo64> sean__, basically 11.04 has a new ui called unity
[17:47] <jcpham> i actually prefer no ui ;p
[17:47] <Apple5> sudo apt-get install update -sudo password for Andrew:
[17:47] <JokesOnYou77> OerHeks: I'm going to try and relog and see if that helps
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> sean__: later libs, later kernel, later drivers
[17:47] <OerHeks> JokesOnYou77, you might have a other type of keyboard ?
[17:47] <Gentoo64> sean__, also 11.04 from what i hear on here is nowhere near as stable
[17:47] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, ok, but what can be wrong with its repository? firefox-stable I mean. Every page in google by request "firefox 7 ubuntu" says, that repo already have he latest version
[17:47] <Apple5> Adnrew is not in the sudoers file. THis incident wil be reported
[17:47] <sean__> so should i dl 10.04?
[17:47] <sean__> :O
[17:47] <nn> what command do i use to install a file from an url?
[17:47] <llutz> Apple5: ask you admin/daddy to add you to the sudoers
[17:47] <Apple5> he forgot password
[17:47] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: have you done "sudo apt-get update" after adding the repo?
[17:48] <llutz> your*
[17:48] <Gentoo64> sean__, if you want
[17:48] <Apple5> llutz admin forgot password
[17:48] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, how can I check the repo itself. Maybe there is some conflicts in my sorces.list or anything.

[17:48] <llutz> Apple5: but he should know how to reset it
[17:48] <Apple5> how do i reset
[17:49] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: is it this? https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable it says "aimed at Lucid and Maverick"...
[17:49] <llutz> Apple5: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword
[17:49] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: try an "apt-cache policy firefox"
[17:50] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, ah, i see. But it always looked like I have latest firefox because of its repo
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Apocalypse_dn: depends how you view latest ;)
[17:52] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, only 6.02 and 4.0 is present. Is there any chance this package wasn't mirrored to Ukrainian server for now?
[17:53] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: i think that repo is just not available for Natty yet... the Packages list is empty
[17:53] <LjL> Apocalypse_dn: check it, http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-stable/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-amd64/
[17:54] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, I think you're right
[17:54] <codemagician> my 10.04 LTS server says this on ssh login "13 updates are security updates."
[17:54] <SixThreeOh> I am trying to install grub but keep getting: grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub, what does this error mean and how can I fix it?
[17:55] <Gentoo64> SixThreeOh, what command are you using? grub-install?
[17:55] <JokesOnYou77> ActionParsnip: Relogging after changing the keyboard prefs worked!  Not sure where Oer went tho :(
[17:55] <SixThreeOh> Gentoo64: yes but it is failing on grub-probe
[17:55] <codemagician> 10.04 LTS says this on ssh login "20 packages can be updated." and "13 updates are security updates." too.  How do I update just the security updates?
[17:55] <nn> how do i install http://lv2plug.in/ns/extensions/ui/ ?
[17:55] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, so it make me sad, because I really want to test "brand new speed and fine memory management" it implements :)
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: its working, thats what we need
[17:55] <Gentoo64> SixThreeOh, like grub-install /dev/sda?
[17:56] <Apocalypse_dn> LjL, anyway thanks for describing the situation
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> JokesOnYou77: and you larned a few things
[17:56] <SixThreeOh> Gentoo64: yes, with grub2
[17:56] <JokesOnYou77> Yeah, but I hope you don't think that's it, I've got a list lol
[17:56] <JokesOnYou77> gonna learn a lot today :P
[17:58] <JokesOnYou77> My other question is, about Compiz.  I have to run compiz --replace every time I log in now, how can I get it to be a default?
[17:58] <codemagician> how do I update security update on a LTS server?
[17:58] <Gentoo64> codemagician, what do you mean?
[17:59] <Gentoo64> SixThreeOh, im not sure... is there a /boot on the drive?
[17:59] <codemagician> Gentoo64, when I login it says "13 updates are security updates"
[17:59] <codemagician> Gentoo64, "20 pacakges can be updated"
[17:59] <Gentoo64> codemagician, just run the update manager and in stall them
[17:59] <Gentoo64> and theyll be security update for whatever pakcages they are
[17:59] <codemagician> Gentoo64, but can I just take the security updates only
[17:59] <codemagician> Gentoo64, or should
[17:59] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION: I just installed ubuntu 11.04 on my friends lap. ,but whenever I plug any usb device it hangs? Is there any solution?
[17:59] <Herspar> hi, I am very curious. I have Lucid Lynx. I can open computer, trash, etc with Nautilus. But, when I want to open Trash inside my panel, it is error. Error while spawning nautilus:
[17:59] <Herspar> No application is registered as handling this file
[17:59] <Gentoo64> codemagician, you can manaully select them
[17:59] <Herspar> is there any solution?
[17:59] <codemagician> Gentoo64, or should I take the lot?
[18:00] <Gentoo64> codemagician, id take the lot
[18:00] <codemagician> Gentoo64, if its a production server should I be careful?
[18:00] <Gentoo64> codemagician, if youre paranoid then check them 1 by 1
[18:00] <Gentoo64> codemagician, and see if anything sounds risky to update if you cant afford
[18:00] <phill> openvpn: "No VPN Secrets!"   any ideas? thks
[18:00] <codemagician> Gentoo64, what do I type for checking and installing please?
[18:01] <hoopyfreud> HOY! I have a problem; I seem to be unable to connect to a 20/40 MHz band wireless connection using nm-applet
[18:01] <Gentoo64> codemagician, ah im thinking of the gui... it has checkboxes. not sure about cli, someone else must know
[18:01] <Glitchy_> need assistance in setting up vpntunnel on ubuntu 11.04
[18:02] <toumbo> Is there any way to update metadata of a song with "totem"?
[18:02] <Glitchy_> anyone out there?
[18:03] <hoopyfreud> still here, though...
[18:03] <hoopyfreud> oddly enough
[18:03] <Herspar> QUESTION : hi, I am very curious. I have Lucid Lynx. I can open computer, trash, etc with Nautilus. But, when I want to open Trash inside my panel, it is error. Error while spawning nautilus:
[18:03] <Herspar>  No application is registered as handling this file
[18:03] <Glitchy_> know anything about vpns?
[18:04] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, I assume you're using GNOME's nm-applet
[18:04] <jcpham> are we talking about an openvpn tunnel or just a client connection with the gui
[18:04] <Herspar> It is very strange problem, and so far I have not yet found the solution in Google
[18:04] <zaxonspox> hello, how to check if my Intel GMA X4500 is capable of using 3D?
[18:04] <Glitchy_> no
[18:04] <Glitchy_> openvpn
[18:04] <CyON> hai guys !! since when I upgraded my ubuntu 11.4 to 11.10 I cant play audio file when I roll over the mouse on the file ! I used to play like this in older versions of ubuntu can any one tell me how to FIX this ?
[18:04] <jcpham> so you are doing something complex
[18:04] <Glitchy_> I can't connect, it's all installed properly
[18:04] <hoopyfreud> I don't even, then...
[18:04] <Glitchy_> at least i believe it is
[18:05] <Gentoo64> CyON, in nautilus settings make sure sound preview is checked
[18:05] <Glitchy_> jcpham i dont think so
[18:05] <jcpham> if both ends are configured correctly, check your firewall
[18:05] <jcpham> you need udp 500 for gre
[18:05] <Glitchy_> n/a i have no firewall...its ubuntu that isnt working with me
[18:05] <hoopyfreud> and your router firewall; set up forwarding if you haven't yet
[18:05] <Glitchy_> i upgraded to 11 now can get this to connect
[18:05] <Glitchy_> forwarding is on
[18:06] <Glitchy_> it may be easier to show you what steps ive taken and what step im stuck on
[18:06] <hoopyfreud> OpenVPN is a win/mac application, right...?
[18:06] <Glitchy_> brb gonna get the link
[18:06] <hoopyfreud> HOY! I have a problem; I seem to be unable to connect to a 20/40 MHz band wireless connection using nm-applet
[18:06] <Glitchy_> it works for linux as well
[18:07] <JokesOnYou77> Can anyone tell me how to make compiz the default?  Every time I log in I have to run compiz --replace
[18:07] <Glitchy_> https://www.vpntunnel.se/tmp/howto-Linux.pdf  <-- step 6 is where im stuck
[18:07] <jcpham> yeah i'd need to see the link
[18:07] <jaimef> llutz: for production servers?
[18:07] <Glitchy_> its a pdf fyi
[18:08] <CyON> Gentoo64: can u please tell me where is that settings Becoz I'm a newbie !
[18:08] <Gentoo64> CyON, click on edit preferences (or similar) then under preview menu there should be something like sound (local files)
[18:08] <llutz> jaimef: not really, maybe you should have mentioned that before..
[18:08] <jcpham> i'd say cat /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf
[18:08] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, try command-lining "Gedit /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf"
[18:09] <jcpham> but most likely, you shouldn't
[18:09] <hoopyfreud> or Kate /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf
[18:09] <jcpham> paste it
[18:09] <hoopyfreud> if you use KDE
[18:09] <Glitchy_> what does the cat command do?
[18:09] <jcpham> so you have some custom .conf files you are downloading from that web site
[18:09] <Glitchy_> correct
[18:09] <jcpham> on how to connect to and use their vpn service
[18:09] <llutz> Glitchy_: cat (1)              - concatenate files and print on the standard output
[18:09] <Gentoo64> Glitchy_, cat just views a file
[18:10] <jcpham> so you unzip their file and execute openvpn with it
[18:10] <jcpham> is what I see
[18:10] <ufotech> Hi. having a nasty login issue. Cannot any more login a user but no problem login in root
[18:10] <hoopyfreud> ufo, did you edlete your account?
[18:10] <Glitchy_> you move the conf files into the openvpn folder, then find a file called ca.crt and moved it into a created folder...then run the connection
[18:11] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, you may want to follow the step 6 alternative using Ubuntu's NM
[18:11] <ufotech> no, all users cannot login all of a sudden - only root
[18:11] <llutz> ufotech: "df -h"
[18:11] <Shawn__> ufotech, THe root account isnt even available to login to by default, did you enable the root account?
[18:11] <llutz> ufotech: pastebin the output please
[18:11] <Glitchy_> i have done so, it wont allow importing, hang on, ill give you exact error message
[18:11] <CyON> Gentoo64 : I can't found anything related to sound under the preview menu there's only text files other previewable files and folder!!
[18:12] <jcpham> he probably needs to sudo
[18:12] <Gentoo64> CyON, ah... there should be a sound preview there, maybe its gone now idk. i havent used naitulus
[18:12] <ufotech> enabled root long ago
[18:12] <ufotech> pastebin??
[18:12] <llutz> !paste
[18:12] <llutz> ufotech: ^^
[18:12] <hoopyfreud> yar; Glitchy, try rerunning the entire install with "sudo" before everything
[18:13] <Glitchy_> The file 'openvpn-Swe.conf' could not be read or does not contain recognized VPN connection information
[18:13] <Glitchy_> Error: unknown error.
[18:13] <hoopyfreud> wait 1 sec
[18:13] <jcpham> this means something is wrong with your config file
[18:13] <jcpham> or you have improperly specified it's path
[18:13] <Glitchy_> followed instructions to the t...not sure how unless the file was corrupt during install
[18:13] <llutz> !who | jcpham
[18:13] <jcpham> Glitchy
[18:13] <Glitchy_> yeah
[18:14] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, when you "su"'d, did you get authentication failure OR close the terminal at any point?
[18:14] <CyON> Ohh !!  is that function disabled by  new ver of ubuntu or any alternative ways to fix that ?
[18:14] <Glitchy_> nope
[18:14] <hoopyfreud> hrm
[18:14] <ufotech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/699242/
[18:14] <hoopyfreud> well
[18:14] <Glitchy_> i know...irritating at best
[18:14] <Gentoo64> CyON, if it's not there then maybe it got took out of a newer version of nautilus
[18:14] <hoopyfreud> try rerunning the install with aptitude. You may be missing a dependency...
[18:14] <llutz> ufotech: "df -h"  pastebin the output of this command please
[18:15] <Glitchy_> k, ill be back and let you know what happens
[18:15]  * Glitchy_ will be back in 10
[18:15] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, if you don't have aptitude yet, sudo apt-get aptitude
[18:16] <hoopyfreud> Now back to my problem... Ubuntu can't detect a 20/40 MHz band wifi connection...
[18:16] <phill> hoopyfreud, glitchy, llutz,  having similar openvpn problems  "no vpn secrets" error in log
[18:16] <CyON> Gentoo64 : so any alternative ways to play the audio files when roll over the mouse?
[18:16] <Gentoo64> CyON, no :(
[18:17] <JokesOnYou77> Can anyone tell me how to make compiz the default?  Every time I log in I have to run compiz --replace
[18:17] <Gentoo64> well not :( for me, i would find it annoying :)
[18:17] <hoopyfreud> Jokes, you might set a preboot script for it
[18:17] <Glitchy_> hoopyfreud is that the package manager or the terminal?
[18:18] <Glitchy_> it found two variations
[18:18] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, terminal. sudo apt-get install aptitiude, then find the packade name and sudo aptitude install <package name>
[18:18] <noobie> hi all!how can i set different wallpapers for my destops? i have gnome
[18:19] <codemagician> are the Amazon EC2 instances optimised... what will happen if I sudo apt-get upgrade and pull a new kernel... will it work the same?
[18:19] <Polah> Glitchy: You can install the package using apt-get... You don't need to get aptitude, they both use the same sources.
[18:19] <ufotech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/699246/
[18:19] <Gentoo64> codemagician, what do you mean optimized?
[18:19] <Glitchy_> installing anyway...whats aptitude do exactly?
[18:19] <atomx> hi, I have a question about network configuration. I have a laptop connected to internet via an usb-modem , and I have a desktop that has a wireless modem. The internet works on laptop (i start it using wvdial), and I want to make internet work on dektop.
[18:19] <codemagician> Gentoo64, I mean are they specially made to work with EC2 instances
[18:19] <llutz> ufotech: and "ls -ld /tmp" pls
[18:19] <hoopyfreud> Polah, I thought he might be missing a dependency. Apttiude is usually better at catchingthose than apt-get
[18:20] <llutz> hoopyfreud: only if a package is broken
[18:20] <hoopyfreud> He thinks his might be
[18:20] <codemagician> Gentoo64, perhaps if I pull newer kernels it'll effect my EC2 instance stability.  i.e. perhaps the AMI image is made to run on VM hardware
[18:20] <hoopyfreud> noobie, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=workspaces+wallpaper
[18:20] <Glitchy_> should i still run this install with as root?
[18:20] <hoopyfreud> yes
[18:20] <atomx> When I connect on the wireless router , the internet dies. probably the network script changes the routing tables
[18:20] <Gentoo64> codemagician, ah im not sure tbh :(
[18:21] <Glitchy_> hoopyfreud was that a response to my question?
[18:21] <Polah> codemagician: Perhaps ask Amazon support.
[18:21] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, not the one directed to noobie, but "yes" was
[18:21] <atomx> can somebody help me to configure the network, suchj that internet work on desktop too, please ?
[18:21] <Glitchy_> right on
[18:21] <codemagician> Polah, they don't really support each linux release
[18:21] <ufotech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/699250/
[18:21] <oCean> hoopyfreud: please don't use lmgtfy here
[18:21] <codemagician> Polah, I guess its an issue for the cloud team at ubuntu
[18:22] <Polah> codemagician: So it's their kernel, not yours?
[18:22] <hoopyfreud> oCean, sorry
[18:22] <Apple5> is there any linux antivirus program
[18:22] <hoopyfreud> Apple5, no
[18:22] <Gentoo64> Apple5, clamav is one
[18:23] <Gentoo64> Apple5, but they dont scan for linux viruses
[18:23] <Gentoo64> only windows
[18:23] <codemagician> Polah, Ubuntu (canonical) I think have made some ready made images
[18:23] <llutz> ufotech: both seem fine...
[18:23] <Polah> codemagician: I do recall seeing *-virtual kernels last time I installed from the minimal ISO.
[18:23] <hoopyfreud> Apple5, most security vulnerabilities are fixed in updates.
[18:23] <ufotech> login -p works as well
[18:23] <asdjaksjdh> k
[18:24] <Polah> Gentoo64: Doesn't clamav scan for both? Obviously primarily for Windows because there's a lot more viruses there?
[18:24] <Apple5> how do i install something with archieve manager!
[18:24] <codemagician> Polah, actually doing a uname shows "Linux zeus 2.6.32-317-ec2"
[18:24] <Polah> Apple5: What are you trying to install? It may be in the repositories?
[18:24] <Gentoo64> Polah, no only windows
[18:24] <Glitchy_> hoopyfreud where do i find the ca.crt file?
[18:24] <Pici> codemagician: #ubuntu-cloud or #ubuntu-server may be more informative than here.
[18:24] <Apple5> tor
[18:24] <Polah> Gentoo64: Ah, I see. Thought it did both, good to know.
[18:24] <codemagician> Polah, the hyphen -ec2
[18:24] <codemagician> Pici, aha cool
[18:24] <hoopyfreud> Apple5, this channel is not a tutorial. Please refer to documentation and check back in if you have any problems following it,
[18:24] <Gentoo64> Polah, there arent swarms of viruses for linux. peple can obviously make malicious files though
[18:25] <Glitchy_> is that already part of ubuntu?
[18:25] <Apple5> ohk i look up manager
[18:25] <Polah> Apple5: Do sudo apt-get install tor
[18:25] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, I have no idea. try "locate ca.crt"
[18:25] <Polah> Apple5: Applications that come as anything other than  a .deb or from the repositories will typically involve building from source.
[18:26] <leeping> Hi there, my new Ubuntu installation doesn't have the network driver (at least, that's what I think; it reports no eth0 device).  Could I be missing the network driver?  If so, can someone help me install it?  Thanks
[18:26] <Polah> hoopyfreud: Actually, it's a support channel. If someone asks how to build something from source, we'll help them do that or achieve the same thing in a better way (i.e. getting from repos)
[18:26] <Gentoo64> Apple5, tor is in the repos
[18:26] <Gentoo64> i think
[18:26] <llutz> Apple5: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en#ubuntu
[18:27] <Polah> Gentoo64: It is, I see it.
[18:27] <llutz> Gentoo64: Polah from link above "Do not use the packages in Ubuntu's universe."
[18:27] <hoopyfreud> glitchy, did you find it?
[18:27] <Polah> llutz: Ah I see.
[18:27] <Gentoo64> llutz, my bad idk
[18:28] <asteve> is there a way for a user to change their password if one was never set?
[18:28] <Glitchy_> i found 2 on ubuntu already, then the one they have on the site, which i believe is for a windows machine
[18:28] <Gentoo64> asteve, passwd user
[18:28] <Polah> Apple5: Follow llutz instructions then
[18:28] <larsduesing> hi together
[18:28] <Glitchy_> i believe the crt file is what is stopping me from connecting
[18:28] <asteve> Gentoo64: I want user_a to change their own password if one was never set
[18:28] <Gentoo64> llutz, although im not sure why, i thought ubuntus updates were mainly security/stability
[18:29] <oCean> !tor | Apple5
[18:29] <llutz> Gentoo64: most are, except tor and some other
[18:29] <Gentoo64> asteve, maybe passwd user will still work
[18:29] <asteve> it does not
[18:29] <cong2> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=747df451a7ddf6f73d2c2196a6df7d87b1b67ea0
[18:29] <Gentoo64> asteve, do it from another user
[18:29] <atomx> nobody is able to help me , please ?
[18:29] <Gentoo64> asteve, and use sudo
[18:29] <asteve> Gentoo64: ….the user does not have access to sudo
[18:29] <atomx> (about the network)
[18:29] <galanakis> How can I change the key shortcut for searching? I want to change it from being "mod" to "mod+space" but when i change it in the Key shortcuts menu nothing happens:(
[18:29] <ufotech> Some other ideas how to fix my login?
[18:29] <t-minus> I'm thinking about trying Chrome OS on my dell mini 9, any thoughts or suggestions?
[18:30] <cong2> Everything is working. I has that weird burst sound problem but that's gone now.
[18:30] <Gentoo64> asteve, no idea what you've done. you cant do a lot without sudo / root access
[18:30] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, the crt file on the site SHOULD work, but I'm not exactly sure...
[18:30] <asteve> Gentoo64: ….
[18:30] <HagopH> I need help diagnosing Ubuntu not recognizing my HD. Would somebody please help me?
[18:30] <Gentoo64> asteve, try from a livecd
[18:30] <Glitchy_> thats the one im using...well one of the files they game me is broke lol
[18:30] <Gentoo64> asteve, and chroot
[18:30] <JokesOnYou77> Does anyone know how to get the "ding" in chatzilla in Ubuntu when someone mentions your Nic?
[18:30] <Polah> asteve: If you're on the user just now, then just running passwd will let you set one. passwd $user will change $user's password, sudo would let you do that for user accounts other than your own.
[18:30] <asteve> that's not my problem,
[18:30] <Glitchy_> creating a folder and creating a directory are the same thing correct?
[18:31] <hoopyfreud> yes
[18:31] <asteve> this is a production environment where I'm creating 20 users; it would be nice if they could all set their passwords as soon as they logged in
[18:31] <anonissimus> is there a way of changing the last accessed date of a file? I tried touch -a but that doesnt seem to change it
[18:31] <Glitchy_> okay, so step five is done then...i dont get it
[18:31] <asteve> but I don't want to pre-emptively set their passwords to something
[18:31] <HagopH> I need help diagnosing Ubuntu not recognizing my HD. Would somebody please help me?
[18:31] <Younder> anonissimus, It does if you have write access
[18:32] <_klk_1> hi all, i'm trying to set up this USB to ethernet adapter in ubuntu: http://www.win-star.com/eshop/goods.php?id=29 .
[18:32] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, link again, plox. Sorry, browser crash
[18:32] <Glitchy_> https://www.vpntunnel.se/tmp/howto-Linux.pdf
[18:32] <_klk_1> the device is recognized and established as "eth1" interface.  i can't get it to have an IP or connect to the internet though.  any tips?
[18:33] <anonissimus> Younder: then dolphin does not update
[18:33] <Younder> _klk_, what happened to eth0
[18:33] <mephist0> hi there.  someone know how to use keyboard as mouse? tryed <shift><cntrl><num lock> and no luck
[18:33] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, check the /etc/openvpn folder for the conf files
[18:33] <Younder> anonissimus, rubbish use sudo
[18:33] <mang0> Anyone know how to get .mov files working in chrome for ubuntu? I've installed mplayer and w32codecs
[18:33] <mang0> :/
[18:33] <JokesOnYou77> mephist0: I just figured out how to turn that function off actually, hang on I've got a link
[18:33] <Polah> asteve: Might I recommend setting some arbitrary string as their password, telling them that and then telling them to use passwd then set a password after logging in. If they have no password set and can log in without one, then another user or anyone could log on as that user before they set a password if usernames are easy to guess.
[18:33] <Younder> anonissimus, rubbish use sudo touch <file>

[18:33] <anonissimus> trying that now
[18:34] <mephist0> JokesOnYou77: thanks
[18:34] <Polah> asteve: Ah, then they shouldn't need a password if they're authenticating with keys
[18:34] <asteve> not to ssh in, but to sudo they will;
[18:34] <hoopyfreud> Does anyone know if Ubutu can detect 20/40 MHz networks? a 20MHz network works fine for me
[18:34] <_klk_1> Younder:  eth0 is the regular ethernet connection.
[18:35] <Younder> Polah, I recommend taking basis in a book title. That is easier to remember.
[18:35] <Beco> hey guys can I trust this site http://www.playdeb.net
[18:35] <anonissimus> Younder: even as sudo
[18:35] <Polah> Younder: What do you mean?
[18:35] <celio> hi there!
[18:35] <Gentoo64> Beco, looks alright to me
[18:35] <davidcalle> Beco, I do. It has been popular for a few years now.
[18:36] <mephist0> JokesOnYou77: thank you very much. Anyway i am looking for some generic linux solution. :--)
[18:36] <Younder> Polah, say Upstairs downstairs.
[18:36] <Polah> asteve: Ah yes of course. Just set them arbitrary passwords and tell them, that way they can reset it using that password to whatever they want.
[18:36] <gebbione> is there a way to show the folder path and being able to edit it manually in the gnome interface?
[18:36] <HagopH> I need help diagnosing Ubuntu not recognizing my HD. Would somebody please help me?
[18:36] <_klk_1> here is some dmesg output that shows the device being recognized:  http://pastebin.com/ZKjJvyWc . and here is ifconfig output:  http://pastebin.com/3icQzAtR
[18:36] <asteve> Polah: can't set an arbitrary password; i guess I'm SOL
[18:37] <Beco> davidcalle any good games you recommend?
[18:37] <hoopyfreud> Glitchy, in case you missed it, check the /etc/openVPN folder for the conf files
[18:37] <Gentoo64> _klk_1, eth1 has no ip set, doesnt it let you do it in the net manager?
[18:37] <davidcalle> Beco, Urban Terror!
[18:37] <HagopH> I need help diagnosing Ubuntu not recognizing my HD. Would somebody please help me?
[18:37] <Polah> asteve: Why not? When you create the account just make up twenty passwords something like london.oceanic1, obviously different and tell them that and how to reset it.
[18:37] <asteve> Polah: can't tell them
[18:38] <Gentoo64> Beco, there are a few, but for online, even the polular games have only 1 or 2 servers with players in
[18:38] <JokesOnYou77> mephist0: ahhh, guess my method is just for gnome.  Unless that functionality is built into the Xserver I don't know that there's a single way to do that across distros
[18:38] <Younder> Polah, Upstairs, Downstairs was originally an idea by two actress friends, Jean Marsh and Eileen Atkins, becomes USDSJMEA
[18:38] <Gentoo64> ie urbanterror, nexuiz etc
[18:38] <Beco> davidcalle: yea good choice thanks for the help
[18:38] <Polah> Younder: I have no idea what you're talking about.
[18:38] <A_J> hey all i just have installed a sound card, by popping it into my pci slot, it does not work, now what
[18:38] <davidcalle> Beco, yw
[18:38] <mang0> Beco: Urban terror is great fun! :D
[18:39] <Gentoo64> A_J, check alsamixer is the first thing id do
[18:39] <_klk_1> Gentoo64:  i can try that.  right now it's configured to use DHCP
[18:39] <HagopH> When I type "sudo fdisk -l" Ubuntu isn't showing my HD. Any ideas?
[18:39] <mang0> Beco: The server browser is bad though, I advise downloading urtsb
[18:39] <mang0> Anyone know how to get .mov files working in chrome for ubuntu? I've installed mplayer and w32codecs
[18:39] <A_J> !alsamixert
[18:39] <A_J> !alsamixer
[18:39] <hoopyfreud> A_J update your BIOS
[18:39] <hoopyfreud> ?
[18:39] <A_J> hoopyfreud: nop have not done that
[18:40] <organiks> anyone know what would cause this
[18:40] <organiks> sudo aticonfig --list-adapters
[18:40] <organiks> X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
[18:40] <Polah> asteve: Ah, I see. You could set up a message on login to display a preset password for that user and how to reset it to what they want.
[18:40] <HagopH> When I type "sudo fdisk -l" Ubuntu isn't showing my HD. It's SATA. Any ideas?
[18:40] <A_J> hoopyfreud: any other method, i don't think it's a bios issue
[18:41] <asteve> Polah: ya, that's just very suboptimal; i'll have to come up with a better solution
[18:41] <antihoax> HagopH<< i'd think your sata driver is not loaded, or installed
[18:41] <HagopH> When I type "sudo fdisk -l" Ubuntu isn't showing my HD, just my USB flash drive. The HD is SATA. Any ideas?
[18:41] <Polah> !repeat | HagopH
[18:42] <A_J> Polah: have a look at my issue
[18:42] <hoopyfreud> Anyone know some good Banshee extensions?
[18:42] <hoopyfreud> Also, I can't connect to a 20/40 MHz router band,, though I can connect to it in widows and to a 20 MHz band from the same router in Linux
[18:42] <A_J> ActionParsnip: \o/ wb
[18:42] <HagopH> Sorry all. I was trying to be more specific with more information. I'll slow down on the retries.
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> A_J: ty
[18:43] <antihoax> HagopH<< you could first try dmesg and examine if you see something there
[18:43] <A_J> hey all i just have installed a sound card, by popping it into my pci slot, it does not work, now what. have a look ActionParsnip ?
[18:43] <bagels> Polah did you get a chance to look at my banshee error?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> A_J: do you have another sound card installed?
[18:43] <A_J> no ActionParsnip was using onboard
[18:43] <SixThreeOh> Is there an ubuntu mirror that doesn't show 0B for isos?
[18:43] <Polah> bagels: SQLite error? Could try reinstalling Banshee
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> A_J: did you disable the onboard device?
[18:44] <A_J> ActionParsnip: from the bios ?
[18:44] <Polah> SixThreeOh, OB?
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> SixThreeOh: use torrents, its faster and the extra checking ensures the data is good
[18:44] <sadubuntunewb> If my system goes past the bios boot splash screen but never shows anything else than a screen with a cursor, what should I press to try to see some information about what ubuntu or grub failed to do?
[18:44] <SixThreeOh> Polah: for ftp.
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> A_J: yes
[18:44] <A_J> ActionParsnip: i did not, hmm any idea where it would be ?
[18:44] <Polah> SixThreeOh: I mean what do you mean by OB?
[18:44] <HagopH> antihoax: I'm sorry if I'm being very basic. It's been years since I used a Unix and my first install.
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> A_J: in the BIOS
[18:45] <SixThreeOh> Polah: in the index/stat of the file it returns 0B apparently
[18:45] <A_J> ActionParsnip: yea i got that, i meant which tab
[18:45] <A_J> just a rought idea
[18:45] <hoopyfreud> If anyone replies to me, I may have missed it. Innernet was down for a minute
[18:45] <JokesOnYou77> does anyone know how to test if the system beep/alert sound works?
[18:45] <hoopyfreud> *replied
[18:45] <HagopH> antihoax: What am I looking for in dmesg?
[18:45] <Polah> SixThreeOh: Oh, 0B, I thought you were writing OB. So it shows the filesize as 0? That's strange. What is it?
[18:46] <SixThreeOh> For the isos...
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> A_J: BIOSes vary MASSIVELY
[18:46] <dans> i get a permission denied error when trying to mkdir within home
[18:46] <dans> i moved home onto its own permission
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> A_J: have a look around, you'll find it
[18:46] <dans> does the user need changing somehow
[18:46] <dans> its own partition*
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> dans: sudo mkdir /home/name; sudo chown name:name /home/name
[18:46] <A_J> ok thanks ActionParsnip, you always come through for me :D
[18:47] <dans> but shouldnt i be able to mkdir without sudo?
[18:47] <dans> do i just need to chown everything
[18:47] <t-minus> has anyone tried Chrome OS on a Dell mini 9?
[18:47] <dans> perhaps chown name:name ~/
[18:47] <sadubuntunewb> are there other less busy ubuntu channels?
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> dans: the /home folder is owned by root:root so it needs sudo, you will then need to change the owner to the new user
[18:48] <Apple5> is there an uber noob guide for ubuntu
[18:48] <dans> sadbuntu #lessbusyubuntu
[18:48] <sadubuntunewb> LOL
[18:48] <iceroot> t-minus: wrong channel
[18:48] <t-minus> what's the right channel?
[18:49] <hoopyfreud> sadubuntunewb: there are some niche channels on Freenode
[18:49] <sadubuntunewb> If my system goes past the bios boot splash screen but never shows anything else than a screen with a cursor, what should I press to try to see some information about what ubuntu or grub failed to do?
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> t-minus: #chrome maybe
[18:49] <t-minus> thanks
[18:49] <hoopyfreud> Apple5: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/index.html
[18:49] <mang0> ActionParsnip, t-minus: #chrome is locked
[18:50] <Apple5> how come my ubuntu doesnt have unity or dash
[18:50] <t-minus> I just wanted to know if the wireless works
[18:50] <llutz> !manual | Apple5
[18:50] <iceroot> t-minus: not supported here
[18:50] <hoopyfreud> sadubuntunewb: your grub may have crashed. Boot into a live cd and reinstall it
[18:50] <hoopyfreud> it being Grub, not ubuntu
[18:51] <Younder> sadubuntunewb, sounds like a reinstall
[18:51] <hoopyfreud> Apple5: logout and check the bottom panel. If the dropdown menu says classic desktop, change it to Unity
[18:51] <hoopyfreud> you may want to change it back very shortly
[18:52] <sadubuntunewb> hoopyfreud and Younder: reinstall ubuntu or reinstall grub or both?
[18:53] <mang0> sadubuntunewb: If you reinstall ubuntu, grub is also reinstalled
[18:53] <Younder> sadubuntunewb, reinstall Ubuntu
[18:53] <sadubuntunewb> thanks
[18:53] <hoopyfreud> sadubuntunewb: reinstall grub only
[18:53] <hoopyfreud> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 should help
[18:54] <hoopyfreud> mang0, Younder, I think he only needs to reinsstall grub. The link should be enough to show him how
[18:55] <mang0> hoopyfreud: Ah, okay. Also this:
[18:55] <mang0> !grub | sadubuntunewb
[18:55] <Younder> hoopyfreud, well well see.
[18:55] <hoopyfreud> sadubuntunewb: NO WAIT
[18:56] <tables> how can you tell if you're running 32 bit or 64 bit?
[18:56] <akSeya> hello folks
[18:56] <sadubuntunewb> hoopyfreud ?
[18:56] <Polah> tables: Run uname -m, x86 or i386 is 32-bit, x86_64 or amd64 is 64-bit
[18:57] <hoopyfreud> just reinstall grub to begin with
[18:57] <mang0> hoopyfreud: That's what we said...
[18:57] <antihoax> tables<< in C ?
[18:57] <antihoax> check int size
[18:57] <akSeya> guys, I need to find out which host on my LAN have port 23 open, i was thinking about nmap: nmap -PS23 <IP_ADDRESS>/24 but it show hosts that does not have port 23 open
[18:58] <mang0> Anyone know how to get .mov files working in chrome for ubuntu? I've installed mplayer and w32codecs, but neither seem to be working :/ It's kinda urgent, any help appreciated!
[18:58] <akSeya> any idea on how to get only the IP addresses from hosts with port 23?
[18:58] <antihoax> tables<< or commandline ? uname -a
[18:58] <Younder> akSeya, it is socket 23 open (FTP) and  a fstat --tcp is better
[18:59] <llutz> 23 = telnet, not ftp
[18:59] <sadubuntunewb> Thanks hoopyfreud, Younder, and mang0
[18:59] <mang0> sadubuntunewb: Np :)

[19:01] <daavis> sasha-,  privet :)
[19:01] <tables> free only shows half my ram, how can i get more?
[19:01] <hoopyfreud_> daavis: if a few years, when Wine catches up
[19:01] <tables> also, how can i scale down my cpu?
[19:01] <tables> it's a laptop
[19:01] <nn> how do i run a program that i just installed with ./waf install?
[19:01] <_klk_1> i connected a usb to ethernet adapter to my computer running ubuntu.  here's the dmesg output when it connects: http://pastebin.com/pKnD80bc. it seems to be recognized with the right kernel module with the driver loaded.  but i can't see the device in /dev: http://pastebin.com/KP929vXM .  why is this?
[19:02] <daavis> i hope they will make it as in widows.. just simply by mounting image file
[19:02] <Polah> tables: How much RAM do you have and what architecture?
[19:02] <Younder> akSeya, OK. Sorry you want to probe a entire network for port 23?
[19:03] <tables> Polah: i normally have 4g, but it shows 2g, i'm intel
[19:03] <akSeya> yeap
[19:03] <tables> x86

[19:04] <oldschool> hi does anyone know how to do updates use the terminal
[19:04] <Younder> akSeya, now bee good
[19:04] <oldschool> on ubuntu desktop
[19:05] <hoopyfreud_> oldschool, if you have aptitude, use sudo aptitude upgrade
[19:05] <hoopyfreud_> IDR apt-get
[19:05] <genii-around> oldschool: There is also: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:06] <oldschool> ok thanks genii-around
[19:07] <edward> Hey
[19:07] <hoopyfreud_> anyone know if Ubuntu connects to 802.11 n or a?
[19:07] <Gentoo64> depends on the adapter
[19:07] <edward> I dont even know what that means
[19:08] <akSeya> Younder, going tolook at that ;
[19:08] <akSeya> thanks ;)
[19:08] <antihoax> akSeya<< because you dont have httpd service ?
[19:08] <savid> So, I've upgraded to gnome3, but now gdm won't work.  Is there a way to start gnome without using gdm?
[19:08] <edward> does anyone know how to configure Vino VNC to disable server side mouse/keyboard input?
[19:09] <Gentoo64> savid, youd have to make an xinitrc and startx
[19:09] <Gentoo64> savid, but idk what to put in xinitrc, gdm puts extra options to start
[19:10] <antihoax> Host is up (0.000037s latency).
[19:10] <savid> Hmm.   Wish I could find out why gdm broke :-P
[19:10] <nebrdan> so i tried getting my fingerprint reader to work with fprint but I don't think it has my driver :/ does that basically mean I am out of luck?
[19:10] <Younder> antihoax, I's IDLE...
[19:10] <Gentoo64> savid, gnome 3 breaks stuff it says
[19:10] <Gentoo64> !gnome3
[19:11] <tensorpudding> gnome 3 is in oneiric, which is at second beta stage
[19:11] <tensorpudding> it's quite usable
[19:11] <libScout> if i want handle incoming requests from port 80 before my webserver, i need a proxy, right? and can squid do this?
[19:11] <antihoax> well kindof :)
[19:11] <Younder> libScout, you don't need a proxy for that
[19:12] <libScout> Younder, any suggestions?
[19:12] <Younder> libScout, do you have a staic IP
[19:12] <libScout> yes
[19:12] <organiks> anyone know what would cause this?
[19:12] <bon010> hello i installed ubuntu when i run i get usb hid error
[19:12] <organiks> X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
[19:13] <Younder> libScout, well then, no problem. Just make sure your firewall doen't block it and check that http.conf is set to allow outgoing connections
[19:13] <Younder> httpd.conf
[19:13] <bon010> hello i installed ubuntu when i run i get usb hid error
[19:14] <artzra> hi

[19:17] <artzra> hi want ti know if i can read  mp3 with a lan share ?? because im obliged to donwload the mp3 before ear in banshee, or else.
[19:17] <sadubuntunewb> Younder, mang0, hoopyfreud:  Regarding GRUB2 being  the culprit of my boot problem, I should mention that the problems only started after I added the uswsusp package.  Could that have broken GRUB2?
[19:18] <Younder> bon010, seems the 64 bit is is throwing it
[19:18] <vacho> damnit..when i do: cp * -R ../ it does not copy hidden files!! :(
[19:18] <mang0> sadubuntunewb: I'm not sure. Do you still have the liveCD?
[19:18] <erealz> nickserv identify passwordss
[19:19] <bon010> i have 32 bit
[19:19] <sadubuntunewb> I installed off USB.  And I left it at home so I'm going to have to make a new one.
[19:19] <mang0> sadubuntunewb: Why? Aren't you going home anytime soon?
[19:20] <vacho> cp * -R ../  But worth a look
[19:20] <erealz> well first off recommendations any friendly linux vpn service out there for cheap?>
[19:21] <vacho> guys seriously, help me.
[19:21] <sadubuntunewb> Younder: I ran sudo apt-get install uswsusp and then executed s2ram.  That's when my problems began.  Now the machine doesn't even boot consistently.
[19:21] <mang0> vacho: Unhide the file, copy it, put it where you want it, then hide it again? (both compies)
[19:21] <sadubuntunewb> I don't understand why it boots sometimes and other times it won't
[19:21] <IdleOne> erealz: best advice is to open a ticket with your vpn provider, first check if they have a FAQ/HELP page
[19:21] <bon010> hello i installed ubuntu when i run i get usb hid error
[19:22] <vacho> mang0, no, it's to many hidden files and they are all over the place.
[19:22] <mang0> vacho: Ah, okay :/
[19:22] <llutz> vacho: use cp -a
[19:22] <erealz> already still waiting....
[19:22] <zykotick9> vacho, you could use rsync (even locally) rather then cp to get the hidden files
[19:22] <genii-around> vacho: I think you need to specify source directory name when using -R/-r
[19:23] <Younder> vacho, If you cannot copy a file, it is probably for one of these reasons:The file is not readable by user user (according to file permissions)
[19:23] <Younder> The destination directory is not writable/readbale/executable by your user. The decide to which you are trying to copy the file has insufficient space left
[19:23] <bon010> hello i installed ubuntu when i run i get usb hid error

[19:24] <Younder> vacho, did you sudo?
[19:24] <vacho> no

[19:25] <vacho> what about using mv?

[19:25] <sadubuntunewb> hoopyfreud, Younder, mang0:  Taken from the Grub2 community page: "Failed boots which result in a blank screen or a blinking cursor are probably not GRUB 2 failures. "

[19:39] <gaspard> there is no need for security, it contains insensitive dana and it will be placed in my apartment ;)
[19:39] <antihoax> ext2fs will work for large files, but ext3 or ext4fs are a better choice
[19:39] <erealz> but ill gladly take my business else whedo you guys have any cheap recommendations for vpn services for cheap
[19:39] <gaspard> antihoax: why encrypting it ?
[19:39] <damisio> hi

[19:39] <FloodBot1> damisio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:40] <tsaknorris> Younder, yep...i idont have that :D
[19:40] <antihoax> gaspard<< encrypting protects sensitive data if you lose it
[19:40] <gaspard> okay antihoax, i gonna compare ext3fs and ext4fs, thnx
[19:41] <george> Hello. I'm trying to get my mp4 player detected. Help, please?
[19:41] <antihoax> gaspard<< if you don't need compatibility, then ext4fs
[19:42] <gaspard> antihoax: will do. thnx
[19:42] <erealz> do you guys have any cheap recommendations for vpn services for cheap

[19:44] <antihoax> shadow98<< howabout #bash ?
[19:45] <IdleOne> Total_Oblivion: have you installed kubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[19:45] <bon010> http://imageshack.us/f/31/imag0097lh.jpg/ i get this error
[19:45] <Total_Oblivion> IdleOne: nope...heh...
[19:45] <IdleOne> Total_Oblivion: install that and restart amarok afterward, should all work
[19:45] <gaspard> antihoax: I do not need to encrypt the disk, I gonna use it to store my pr*n and my company's customer credit card numbers (I am working at SONY, haha)
[19:45] <Total_Oblivion> IdleOne: I do that with sudo apt-get install kubuntu etc?
[19:46] <shadow98> antihoax, at the top of logrotate script
[19:46] <IdleOne> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:46] <george> Total_Oblivion: or with Kpackagekit
[19:46] <Total_Oblivion> george: what's that?
[19:46] <IdleOne> Total_Oblivion: use the sudo command
[19:46] <bon010> http://imageshack.us/f/31/imag0097lh.jpg/ i get this error
[19:47] <george> Total_Oblivion: yeah, just use the command line, it's faster and easier
[19:48] <antihoax> gaspard<< creditcard numbers are definitely you want someone to have who steals your pendrive :)

[19:56] <pishi_naznazi136> i've installed ubuntu on a virtual box and shared a folder from host operation system. i've mounted that folder somewhere through root mode, but when i try to access that directory through normal account it says permission is denied. how can i configure it for accessing those files with normal accounts?
[19:56] <Nosphorus> HI THERE!!!!!!11111
[19:56] <grillermo> pishi_naznazi136, have you installed the virtualbox addon?
[19:57] <pishi_naznazi136> grillermo: yes. i
[19:57] <Riddick> Hi can anyone help me?
[19:57] <pishi_naznazi136> grillermo: im saying i've mounted that folder. i just can't open it through normal user account
[19:57] <footvilla> i just installed a ubuntu 11.04 lamp server, i have no idea how to configure email
[19:57] <grillermo> oh
[19:58] <grillermo> you have to change the permissions of the folder
[19:58] <footvilla> chmod?
[19:58] <grillermo> chown
[19:58] <grillermo> it is root's
[19:58] <pishi_naznazi136> grillermo: imposible to do so
[19:58] <grillermo> then use another folder
[19:58] <Hedgehog456> what's the command to load a new kernel module?
[19:58] <grillermo> that's not root's
[19:58] <myrmidette> hello, I'm having some problems with my nm-applet randomly quitting. I just says '** Message: Caught signal 15, shutting down...' and exits. I don't see a pattern for it happening and it doesn't occur very often but it is annoyhing
[19:59] <myrmidette> *annoying
[19:59] <pishi_naznazi136> grillermo: i did. i tried to use one of the folders in home directory
[19:59] <grillermo> then i'm blank
[19:59] <D_Russ> hello everyone
[20:00] <D_Russ> is there a smooth scrolling feature or addon for 11.04?
[20:00] <xauth> myrmidette: signal 15 is the terminate signal. Something is asking your application to quit.
[20:01] <myrmidette> xauth, how do I find out what?
[20:01] <myrmidette> fyi nm-applet is the frontend to NetworkManager. if it quits I lose internet
[20:01] <footvilla> can any one help me, installed lamp server and im trying to configure email accounts
[20:02] <Hedgehog456> Um, what's the command to look up device driver history?
[20:02] <xauth> myrmidette: whatever started it, i'd say. cannot tell you anything more.
[20:03] <D_Russ> anyone know if there is a smooth scrolling feature for 11.04 or maybe an addon
[20:03] <shadow98> if someone could look at my logrotate script that would be nice.  ------>>> http://pastebin.com/GPpg6nFq trying to get prerotate working
[20:03] <myrmidette> thanks xauth. I'll wait a couple minutes then ask again
[20:04] <TrueColors> Does anyone know why when you uninstall a program from software center, it doesn't actually remove the files or folders that came with the program... only the server or the executable or something along those lines?
[20:05] <TrueColors> then if you manually removed the rest of the files (especially from /etc), or doing it with sudo rm -rf, when you try to install the program back... it never appears inside back inside the /etc directory
[20:06] <TrueColors> I've had to reformat twice because of the inability to reinstall...
[20:06] <warriorforGod> I just installed 11.04 on a dell 9100 with an nvidia graphics card drive.  After I log into ubuntu, I cannot click on anything.  Has anybody seen something like this?
[20:06] <xrdodrx> D_Russ, in which application?
[20:06] <myrmidette> TrueColors, selecting 'remove' removes some of the files (I'm not sure which ones, but I assume it leaves only config files). Selecting 'purge' SHOULD remove everything, but in my experience some odd n' ends get left around anyway
[20:07] <cheako> Hello, any one use xchat and sasl(http://blog.gnu-designs.com/howto-configure-tor-sasl-irc-to-connect-to-freenode/)  What pkgs do I install?
[20:07] <TrueColors> myrmidette, yeah... it leaves most config files - some did vanish. How do you purge? Isn't that the same as sudo rm -r?
[20:07] <dans> i just accidentally deleted my home partition
[20:08] <dans> what can i do?
[20:08] <myrmidette> it's apt-get purge <program>
[20:08] <DasEi> dans: how did you delete ?
[20:08] <TrueColors> Do I need to specify a path, myrmidette ... or just the program name?
[20:08] <cheako> myrmidette: apt-get --purge remove program
[20:08] <io> s/program/package
[20:08] <cheako> dans: Make a folder for each user in /home.
[20:08] <dans> rm -rf
[20:08] <myrmidette> or dpkg -P
[20:09] <dans> i need to try and recover my files
[20:09] <cheako> dans: Typically done from backups.
[20:09] <dans> looking at dls, but i dont have it installed
[20:09] <dans> cant find a package
[20:09] <cheako> dans: impossible.
[20:09] <TrueColors> dans, backups are good... but are there anything in the recycle bin?
[20:09] <D_Russ> xrdodrx, all applications
[20:09] <DasEi> dans: weel, quite messed then, you can make no further use of that space and try a tool like testdisk, else there are only very hasslefull forensenic tools
[20:10] <h00k> !undelete | dans
[20:10] <xrdodrx> D_Russ, nothing like that exists
[20:10] <LindaLoveLace> hello, i have both backtrack5 r1 and ubuntu, my ubuntu bootmenu was overwrited by my bt5r1 how can i make it so i can boot off either or?
[20:10] <cheako> dans: Some GUI delete tools make use of a recycle bin, but if you unlinked the files then they are gone.
[20:10] <DasEi> !grub | LindaLoveLace
[20:10] <leeping> Hi there - I have a pretty painful problem in which Ubuntu 10.04 LTS doesn't recognize my network / gfx card, but Ubuntu 11.04 doesn't install properly (can't restart the computer).  Is this a known problem?  Anyone seen it before?
[20:11] <antihoax> Hedgehog456<< modprobe insmod lsmod rmmod
[20:11] <DasEi>  LindaLoveLace : follow restore grub
[20:11] <TrueColors> myrmidette, I tried what you suggested, but it says there is no package is installed, so none removed...
[20:11] <Hedgehog456> antihoax: thanks
[20:11] <DasEi> LindaLoveLace: or use supergrubdisk
[20:11] <dans> hmm i might as well count my losses and move on
[20:11] <D_Russ> xrdodrx, is there a way to change how fast you scroll through a long list by dragging the scroll bar on the right, i notice that if the list is very long it becomes super sensitive and scrolls very fast?
[20:11] <LindaLoveLace> DasEi: i've tried using rescatux but it only seemed to pick up my backtrack5
[20:12] <LindaLoveLace> DasEi: my ubuntu was installed with wubi
[20:12] <benoliver999> I'm with you on this on D_Russ
[20:12] <DasEi> LindaLoveLace: ah, I see
[20:12] <benoliver999> one*
[20:12] <D_Russ> benoliver999, you experience the same problem?
[20:12] <dans> ****
[20:12] <leeping> Okay, an easier question: How do I go into recovery mode in Lucid?  It doesn't display the GRUB boot menu.
[20:13] <LindaLoveLace> DasEi: so how would i add /dev/sda3 to my boot
[20:13] <benoliver999> Yeah, I have some directories (like music) that are so big it's really tough to find anything at all by scrolling
[20:13] <dans> its the whole partition, i would have thought i could recover a large propertion fairly easily
[20:13] <benoliver999> D_Russ: I end up going into terminal and using ls
[20:13] <antihoax> grillermo<< use strace to debug "whereis strace"
[20:13] <DasEi> leeping: press left shift once grub started
[20:13] <devish> how to know the hdd status including all the mounted drives ebry thing
[20:13] <D_Russ> benoliver999, thats exactly what i am talking about.
[20:14] <devish> is there a way
[20:14] <leeping> DasEi, I just did that.  I didn't get the recovery mode though.
[20:14] <devish> FloodBot2:
[20:14] <DasEi> dans: you would have to restore the headers of that file more or less by hand, really not a nice job
[20:14] <techiewickie> ping
[20:14] <leeping> DasEi, Unless recovery mode still attempts to load the nvidia drivers.  I installed nvidia-xconfig and now I get a black screen where before I was running in low resolution.
[20:14] <grillermo> antihoax, wrong nick i assume
[20:14] <DasEi> .. and only if there is no new data , dans
[20:15] <benoliver999> D_Russ: I do have a mouse with a free-flying scroll wheel, and that helps. On the laptop it's a nightmare though.
[20:15] <D_Russ> i usually grab the right side scroll bar for precise sceolling but this does not work well at all for long lists or lots of files
[20:15] <DasEi> techiewickie: pong
[20:15] <D_Russ> i bet
[20:15] <TrueColors> myrmidette, running it again says there were some programs automatically installeda nd autoremove removes them but stilll doesn't properly remove the configs ...
[20:15] <cheako> dans: Each file and folder is unlinked one at a time.
[20:16] <D_Russ> 11.04?
[20:16] <myrmidette> just use find -exec rm {}
[20:16] <DasEi> leeping : or run sudo init 1, it'll bring you there , too, maybe your grub is configured to not display these kernel-lines ?
[20:16] <dans> i was planning on cleaning up my home directory, but not this drastically
[20:16] <dans> :p
[20:16] <leeping> DasEi, I can't run anything because nothing is visible on the screen
[20:16] <DasEi> leeping: ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[20:16] <leeping> I can see the login prompt flash for about a tenth of a second and then it goes black for 5 seconds, and it repeats
[20:16] <cheako> dans: The only recovery option you have is to basically read every block and re-organise the data.  If we are talking about 20mb then it might take you an hour or so, but if it's 20gb then your looking at a week and 200gb is forever.
[20:16] <leeping> DasEi, tried that too.  No response
[20:17] <antihoax> dans<< if you need files from it there are recovery tools until you write anything where the files were
[20:17] <leeping> I'll reset the xorg.conf using the live cd i guess
[20:17] <leeping> And hopefully a distribution upgrade from 10.04 LTS will take me to 11.04 without any serious issues
[20:17] <dans> antihoax, im gunna look into it now
[20:17] <cheako> you'r
[20:17] <dans> i could use some things
[20:17] <DarkStar1> what's the latest version of jvm out there?
[20:18] <dans> luckily i dont do anything that will cost any lives
[20:18] <DasEi> leeping: do you get the boot-menu at all on left shift ?
[20:18] <bon010> how to setup network connection on ubuntu
[20:18] <devish> df -h
[20:18] <leeping> DasEi, I get nothing
[20:18] <leeping> I've tried holding down the key since hitting the reset button, or tapping it repeatedly
[20:18] <DarkStar1> anyone?
[20:18] <leeping> get the same result every time
[20:19] <cheako> bon010: Depends.  I edit /etc/network/interfaces and use the ifup/ifdown tools...  but that's not the only way.
[20:19] <leeping> i'm not too surprised that 10.04 LTS can't support the newer hardware.  But I was a bit surprised that installing 11.04 didn't work at all
[20:19] <DarkStar1> nvm
[20:19] <leeping> I suppose I could burn a third CD and install 10.10 ... >_<
[20:19] <antihoax> [215548] grillermo hi, could you please tell me what happens when you middle click the title bar of a windows? i'm debuggin something
[20:20] <DasEi> leeping: you can chroot for reconfiguring grub, if resetting xorg doesn't work and make it boot to init 1 default
[20:20] <cheako> bon010: You can also run the commands directly, ifconfig/route there is a new more advanced command in the iproute2 package called ip it has more features then ifconfig/route.
[20:20] <tasslehoff> I need to give my sisters Asus eee 900 a refresh. Is that Ubuntu Netbook Edition still around (and good)?
[20:21] <Silowyi> is anyone here aware of an "official-ish" backports for postgresql on natty? I found the Martin Pitt one on launchpad, but can't really tell if there's a better community supported PPA
[20:21] <DasEi> tasslehoff: no, depreciated
[20:21] <gaspard> antihoax: thnx 4 the advise, it works. And if I pass by Budapest, i won't forget to offer you a beer !
[20:21] <leeping> DasEi, that's a good idea.  Fortunately resetting xorg did work
[20:21] <DasEi> tasslehoff: use standardinstaller
[20:21] <leeping> Now I still have the problem of installing nvidia drivers though.  I can download them straight from Nvidia, but the problem is that the drivers will no longer work after a kernel update
[20:21] <antihoax> gaspard<< np
[20:21] <tasslehoff> DasEi: ah. standard installer from usb-drive then?
[20:21] <DasEi> tasslehoff: yes
[20:22] <DasEi> tasslehoff: and you might want something more lightwight for a netbook (window-manager)
[20:22] <tasslehoff> DasEi: ah, I see ubuntu.com has instructions for creating a usb stick :)
[20:23] <tasslehoff> DasEi: xfce, or even lighter?
[20:23] <grillermo> antihoax, oh is not that kind of debug but thanks for the tip
[20:23] <DasEi> tasslehoff: there is lubuntu which I like for mobiles
[20:23] <glebihan> Silowyi, ppas are never supported
[20:23] <TrueColors> myrmidette when I used sudo find /etc/nginx -exec rm {} \n; it removes files but not folders... plus when I try to install... all those files are now missing and refuse to install... which is where i was to begin with.
[20:23] <TrueColors> I must admit, windows is a lot more use friendly.
[20:23] <Silowyi> glebihan: Yes but there are some PPAs that might as well be official releases.
[20:23] <tables> how can i add a user to a group while gnome is running?
[20:23] <DasEi> tasslehoff: same core but optimized for weaker boxes
[20:23] <tables> and without having to restart gnome
[20:24] <tables> er while X is running*
[20:24] <Silowyi> glebihan: PPAs maintained by the project authors and such
[20:24] <antihoax> grillermo<< strace yourprogram
[20:24] <myrmidette> TrueColors, try rm -r perhaps?
[20:24] <tasslehoff> DasEi: I'll give that a go. She was running what came with the eee, with a Firefox 2 from 2006, so it can't get worse
[20:24] <glebihan> Silowyi, they're different from official releases, which are tested before being released in the repositories
[20:24] <DasEi> tasslehoff: true, period ;)
[20:25] <glebihan> Silowyi, when you add a ppa, you just have to trust the author
[20:25] <SniperXPX> I have a 3GB text file I need to somehow break down into 100MB segments
[20:25] <SniperXPX> How could I go about this
[20:25] <xauth> SniperXPX: dd?
[20:25] <DasEi> tasslehoff: also if you don't like it, can later also change wm again
[20:26] <DasEi> (no reinstall of os)
[20:26] <benoliver999> OK so I've got an SSD. I want a fresh install. Do I just plug it in, format it with the live USB, then install away?
[20:26] <xauth> SniperXPX: Would be a lot of manual work though. There are probably some friendlier programs.
[20:26] <Silowyi> glebihan: Yes I'm aware, that is my point, some authors are more trustworthy than others, by dint of having a long history with the community, and there are many PPAs that come highly recommended.. for example, as I just discovered, the PostgreSQL site recommends this Martin Pitt PPA
[20:26] <DasEi> benoliver999: yes, the installer also allows formatting
[20:26] <TrueColors> myrmidette, that removes the folder ... but it sitll won't reinsall properly again :( it installs folders.. but no files, at all...
[20:26] <Silowyi> so I can reasonably expect him to be trustworthy if the PostgreSQL authors recommend his PPA
[20:26] <benoliver999> DasEi: Thanks man.
[20:26] <myrmidette> I really don't know sorry TrueColors :(
[20:27] <glebihan> Silowyi, well, I'd say Martin Pitt is probably trustworthy enough for you add his ppa without much fear
[20:27] <myrmidette> you'd have to ask someone with experience with nginx
[20:27] <TrueColors> :( I'm going to have to reformat again if i wanted to use nginx...
[20:27] <SniperXPX> xauth: Can you think of any?
[20:27] <TrueColors> or php for that matte
[20:27] <TrueColors> it still won't install php after removing it
[20:27] <xauth> SniperXPX: google is your friend.
[20:27] <mpl> SniperXPX: if it's text, any of cut, head or tail would do.
[20:28] <SniperXPX> yeah it's all text
[20:28] <mpl> so yeah, just loop over head or something.
[20:28] <SniperXPX> i dont really want to load a 3GB file into memory and use vi or something to chop it up
[20:28] <SniperXPX> ill man head
[20:28] <glebihan> SniperXPX, have a look at the "split" command
[20:28]  * xauth reads cut(1)
[20:28] <DasEi> SniperXPX: split
[20:29] <DasEi> ah
[20:29] <SniperXPX> split looks good :)
[20:29] <xauth> SniperXPX: Yeah, split. That was it.
[20:29] <sdcnlab_> hi gusy, im wondering if this is bug or something
[20:29] <sdcnlab_> and what i should do about it
[20:29] <sdcnlab_> im trying to install libcv-dev but im getting dependency errors
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> for this package libcv-dev_2.1.0-2_i386.deb
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> now im looking on ubuntu packages site and the latest version is libcv-dev_2.1.0-2_i386.deb
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> whoops
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> libcv-dev_2.1.0-2_i386.deb
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> sorry the latest version is this
[20:30] <sdcnlab_> libcv-dev (2.1.0-3ubuntu1)
[20:30] <cromag> hmm - how do i get a "to" field in Alpine ? - i have no idea where to find it when composing a message.
[20:31] <nn> can someone help me find a gthread-2.0 >= 2.14.0 ?
[20:31] <dustin_> Hello all, I just finished installing / updating ubuntu 11.04. Now I am curious, should I install the additional drivers, or download them manually from the site and install them that way? (it's an amd radeon driver)
[20:31] <nn> i cant find it anywhere
[20:31] <bon010> how to setup network connection on ubuntu
[20:31] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: How are you installing it? Where did you get it from?
[20:31] <dustin_> Isn't it best to use the most up-to-date driver from amd's site, rather then the driver provided by ubuntu, for your display adapter
[20:32] <sdcnlab_> Lithos84, im trying to install from apt
[20:32] <nn> how do i know what version of gtk i have?
[20:32] <zykotick9> SniperXPX, i've never actually used it but check out split --- "man split" for details
[20:32] <sdcnlab_> libcv installs fine
[20:32] <sdcnlab_> but the libcv-dev
[20:32] <sdcnlab_> has issues
[20:32] <zykotick9> SniperXPX, oh sorry - you found it already ;)
[20:34] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: I suppose you use 11.04. Try to update your repositories before installing it.
[20:34] <zoned> how can i find the location of my apache error log? /var/log/apache2/error.log doesn't seem to be the right one....
[20:34] <sdcnlab_> running sudo apt-get update ?
[20:34] <sdcnlab_> ive done that a million times
[20:35] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: Then use the main server and try again.
[20:35] <sdcnlab_> how do i go about doing that?
[20:36] <sdcnlab_> i thought i was on main server
[20:36] <Lithos84> System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[20:37] <sdcnlab_> Lithos84, that options doesnt seem to be there just update manager, synaptic
[20:37] <zoned> how can i find the location of my apache error log?
[20:37] <gr33n7007h> software sources is in synaptic
[20:37] <sdcnlab_> go to respository list?
[20:37] <zoned> apache2.conf says: apache2.conf:ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
[20:37] <xauth> zoned: Doesn't your apache configuration say where the logs are?
[20:38] <zoned> xauth^^
[20:38] <glebihan> zoned, should be /var/log/apache2/error.log
[20:38] <tables> how do i prevent my computer from hibernate?
[20:38] <tables> hibernating
[20:38] <sdcnlab_> so ive got main, universe, restricted, multiverse
[20:38] <tables> where do i change these system settings?
[20:38] <zoned> glebihan, that's what i thought, but that file doesn't seem to have been updated in a few hours, and i'm getting an error right now.. :/
[20:39] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: From which server?
[20:39] <glebihan> zoned, then check the value of APACHE_LOG_DIR in /etc/apache2/envvars
[20:40] <sdcnlab_> in other software ive got canonical partners, source, independent, mediubuntu, maverick ppa launchpad natty,maverick and one for chrome
[20:40] <zoned> glebihan, hmm... it does seem to be /var/log/apache2 ..... so now i just have to figure out why this 500 error isn't being logged?
[20:40] <sdcnlab_> the canonical partners is http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu
[20:40] <sdcnlab_> for some reason the distrubution in canonical says maverick
[20:40] <sdcnlab_> im pretty sure this natty
[20:41] <sdcnlab_> ya atleast sources says maverick in distrubtion
[20:42] <glebihan> zoned, I guess so...
[20:43] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: Then you have to setup correctly your repositories. Natty provides "libcv-dev 2.1.0-3ubuntu1".
[20:43] <zoned> glebihan, i'm trying to run a perl script, set up a scriptalias /cgi/bin -> /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and put my files there... but when i try to go to it in my browser i get a 500 error, and it's apparently not being logged... my error.log actually hasnt been updated in 4 days (which also seems unlikely)... any ideas?
[20:43] <sdcnlab_> Lithos84, it says maverick in distro?
[20:45] <Lithos84> sdcnlab_: Maverick provides "libcv-dev 2.1.0-2", so you can't upgrade it to "2.1.0-3ubuntu1".
[20:45] <sdcnlab_> okie, but the system is natty
[20:45] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: look at lsb_release a and change sources accordingly, http://repogen.simplylinux.ch is a nice tool
[20:45] <sdcnlab_> so isnt that wrong?
[20:46] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: it is, don't mix repos of distros, will break the system
[20:46] <glebihan> zoned, I'm not familiar with perl in apache so not sure what could be causing this
[20:46] <sdcnlab_> well i didnt setup the system
[20:46] <sdcnlab_> so someone managed to scew it up
[20:46] <Lithos84> sdnclab_: Yes, something is wrong with your repositories.
[20:47] <sdcnlab_> ok DasEi if i generate the list
[20:47] <sdcnlab_> do i put that in the sources.list file?
[20:47] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: yes, you get both, a sources list and a block for the keys you can put in script
[20:48] <mithran> hi all
[20:48] <sdcnlab_> oh okie
[20:48] <sdcnlab_> it says on the link what to do
[20:48] <Gentoo64> hi
[20:48] <Da|Mummy> what does ubuntu have to check cpu temp?
[20:49] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: so first get the keys, then re-fill sources list , then update/grade, then go on
[20:49] <DasEi> Da|Mummy: lm-sensors
[20:49] <Da|Mummy> anything in repo?
[20:50] <DasEi> !info lm-sensors
[20:50] <Gentoo64> lm sensors should be in there
[20:50] <sdcnlab_> ok now that the new file is ready
[20:50] <sdcnlab_> how do i deal with GPG keys
[20:50] <gr33n7007h> sudo sensors-detect
[20:50] <sdcnlab_> the page didnt output any of that
[20:50] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: see the second block of repogen's site ?
[20:50] <antihoax> temp2:        -55.0°C
[20:51] <sdcnlab_> DasEi, its empty
[20:51] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: try sudo apt-get update (don't forget to save sources.list
[20:51] <antihoax> temp3 fluctuating +25/-10
[20:51] <antihoax> but np <;
[20:51] <Da|Mummy> i see nothing related to lm sensor in repo
[20:51] <Da|Mummy> in software center at least
[20:51] <sdcnlab_> okie looking good
[20:52] <grizzly> anyone know how to troubleshoot ubuntu?
[20:52] <sdcnlab_> im a regular fedora user
[20:52] <sdcnlab_> so package managements different
[20:52] <DasEi> I see
[20:52] <grizzly> need help
[20:52] <antihoax> grizzly<< what to troubleshoot?
[20:52] <sdcnlab_> DasEi, i just ran an upgrade
[20:52] <DasEi> !details | grizzly
[20:52] <sdcnlab_> to keep everything up to date
[20:52] <grizzly> after update on ubuntu 10.10 wont login. goes to command login
[20:53] <DasEi> sdcnlab_: so dependencies will rather resolve now, have fun
[20:53] <sdcnlab_> DasEi, someone screwed up everything on the computer
[20:53] <sdcnlab_> before i got here
[20:53] <sdcnlab_> but thanks for clearing it up
[20:53] <grizzly> after i enter my login and password then gives me ubuntu documention with last login date and time and so on
[20:54] <sdcnlab_> glad i love solving issues with linux
[20:54] <sdcnlab_> also thank god for package management
[20:54] <DasEi> grizzly: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg && sudo startx
[20:55] <Gentoo64> sudo startx?
[20:55] <grizzly> wrote it down dasEi.  will try it now.
[20:55] <grizzly> be right back with results
[20:57] <Tiders> Okay so I have a Dell Inspiron Duo.  It is basically a netbook that can convert into tablet mode.  I am running Ubuntu on it.  So far everything works great.  The only thing that is NOT working is the touch screen.  Touching and dragging on the screen works just fine but I cant "flick" up and down the screen to scroll.  I have seen videos of people using Ubuntu with this Dell and doing that.  Can anyone help out?
[20:57] <histo> Anyone know what other packages thunar requires to enable samba browsing?

[21:05] <iseedeadpixels> Gentoo64: can you help me?
[21:05] <grizzly> didnt work
[21:05] <rhizmoe> good times. natty upgrade didn't go smoothly at all.
[21:05] <rhizmoe> ubuntuforums is not responding.
[21:05] <Gentoo64> no, sorry i dont use a laptop. but i hear people saying about jumpy touchpad all the time
[21:05]  * rhizmoe makin' copies
[21:05] <grizzly> finally got into recovery console and will try to repair from there.  thanks for your suggestion DasEi
[21:07] <iseedeadpixels> rhizmoe: what's your issue?
[21:07] <edwardpatch> who knows a recording software for desktops in ubuntu
[21:07] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: simple or professional?
[21:07] <Gentoo64> edwardpatch, i'll google it for you
[21:07] <edwardpatch> ok
[21:07] <edwardpatch> pro
[21:07] <edwardpatch> plz
[21:08] <edwardpatch> i like professional
[21:08] <rhizmoe> iseedeadpixels: nvidia + gnome 3 = issues, then a driver uninstall led to no graphics at all apparently
[21:08] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: Ardour is a great tool if you need a professional one
[21:08] <carael> hi
[21:08] <edwardpatch> oh and can i have avideo editer
[21:08] <Seamus_Finnigan> How do i ubuntu?
[21:08] <rhizmoe> i think i probably needed to upgrade nvidia somehow, but uninstalling it seems to have thrown me down a rabbit hole.
[21:08] <WaltherFI> for video, use PiTiVi
[21:08] <iseedeadpixels> My effin mouse is borked >.<
[21:08] <edwardpatch> oh
[21:08] <Gentoo64> edwardpatch, avidemux, openshot
[21:08] <StealthClown> http://www.lemonparty.org/
[21:08] <StealthClown> http://www.lemonparty.org/
[21:08] <iseedeadpixels> please help
[21:08] <edwardpatch> i had to do it
[21:08] <FloodBot1> StealthClown: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:08] <benoliver999> edwardpatch: I also recommend Ardour.
[21:09] <Gentoo64> rhizmoe, gnome 3 on ubuntu 11.04?
[21:09] <snow_ru> yes
[21:09] <rhizmoe> Gentoo64: yep
[21:09] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: sudo apt-get install ardour pitivi
[21:09] <carael> i don t like gnome 3
[21:09] <Gentoo64> rhizmoe, i hear it messes things up
[21:09] <iseedeadpixels> i like it
[21:09] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: should be quite about what you'll need, those two apps
[21:09] <rhizmoe> well...thanks for that
[21:09] <edwardpatch> ok which is beter
[21:10] <glebihan> rhizmoe, gnome3 on natty is unsupported
[21:10] <rhizmoe> really, if i can reset graphics from the command line so that startx/gdm will work i'm sure i can take it from there
[21:10] <rhizmoe> glebihan: ok, that's fine.
[21:10] <Gentoo64> !gnome3 | rhizmoe
[21:10] <edwardpatch> how do i copy and paste the names
[21:10] <magpii> hi, i keep getting this message whenever i try install lm sensors http://codepad.org/IJ6P3DJD
[21:10] <Da|Mummy> why shouldnt i format a 2tb hdd with ext3 or 4?
[21:11] <magpii> i dont have anything else running
[21:11] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, go for it
[21:11] <pieterpon> hi i ve just bought a xtreamer ultra and try to install everest on the hdd
[21:11] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, i use ext4 for my 1tb
[21:11] <rhizmoe> i guess i can learn to do everything in this screen session
[21:11] <edwardpatch> Ardour gtk2#
[21:11] <edwardpatch> ??
[21:11] <pieterpon> problem is that the installer keep crashing
[21:11] <Da|Mummy> magpii, let me know how you installed lm sensors, i dont even see it anywhere
[21:11] <pieterpon> it is based on ubuntu 10
[21:12] <glebihan> magpii, what does "fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock" say ?
[21:12] <Da|Mummy> Gentoo64, so ext3/4 should only be avoided for sd cards and flash drives and nand?
[21:12] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, i use ext4 on my ssd and flash drives.
[21:12] <Gentoo64> all my drives actually
[21:12] <edwardpatch> is it
[21:12] <edwardpatch> ardour gtk2
[21:12] <Da|Mummy> doesnt the journal minimize the life of flash drives?
[21:13] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: yes, that should be it
[21:13] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, nah. ive been using it for years
[21:13] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: you should be able to find it in the software center
[21:13] <edwardpatch> ok
[21:13] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, it might slow down the writes very slightly but not noticeable
[21:13] <WaltherFI> edwardpatch: also, install PiTiVi video editor at the same time
[21:13] <magpii> i i got lm sensors from here, http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/monitor-temperature-of-system-components-in-ubuntu-with-psensor/
[21:13] <edwardpatch> will it record desktop
[21:13] <edwardpatch> the
[21:13] <magpii> that fuser command doesnt do anything
[21:13] <edwardpatch> ardour gtk2
[21:14] <edwardpatch> sorry im new with linux
[21:14] <Da|Mummy> Gentoo64, so are there any reasons why i SHOULD use ext3/4 over 2?
[21:14] <glebihan> magpii, did you stop an apt process while it was running ?
[21:14] <WaltherFI> sorry, i do have to go now
[21:14] <magpii> no
[21:14] <edwardpatch> w8
[21:14] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, not really no. if you dont care for the journal then go for it. ext4 has some extra options for ssds though
[21:15] <edwardpatch> will it do desktop recording
[21:15] <glebihan> magpii, that's weird then... try "sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock && sudo apt-get update"
[21:15] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, is it a 2tb flash drive then? :s
[21:15] <BacktRacK> Anyone know why my load ave is so high on ubuntu 10.04?
[21:15] <BacktRacK> was it a bug back when everyone used 10.04?
[21:15] <Da|Mummy> they make those?...no its a 2tb western digital green drive hdd
[21:15] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, run top and see whats running
[21:15] <BacktRacK> its been stayin 1's
[21:15] <BacktRacK> 99.1 id
[21:15] <magpii> it updates then nothing happens
[21:15] <Gentoo64> Da|Mummy, just wondered why you was mentioning flash drives
[21:15] <BacktRacK> 1 running
[21:16] <BacktRacK> .77 .93.74
[21:16] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, what is running? might be a bug
[21:16] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, btw, is it nvidia drivers?
[21:16] <BacktRacK> yes
[21:16] <Gentoo64> you're using?
[21:16] <rhizmoe> good times
[21:16] <BacktRacK> im using nvidia 285m
[21:16] <glebihan> magpii, no errors ?
[21:16] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, what process is running
[21:16] <Gentoo64> ?
[21:16] <jkeats> apt-cache crashed and now there are a bunch of files in /var/cache/debconf that seem to be out of date. is there a command to refresh them?
[21:16] <BacktRacK> xchat is the only process
[21:17] <BacktRacK> well app that i sopen
[21:17] <magpii> no errors reported after update
[21:17] <BacktRacK> besides the terminal
[21:17] <glebihan> magpii, then try installing lm-sensors again
[21:17] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, run top in a terminal itll show you whats using the cpu
[21:17] <BacktRacK> 98.1 id and 2 running
[21:17] <BacktRacK> corg
[21:17] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, install htop its clearer
[21:17] <BacktRacK> xorg
[21:17] <BacktRacK> and chat
[21:17] <BacktRacK> 3 -2 -1
[21:17] <BacktRacK> are the number
[21:17] <BacktRacK> cpu useage
[21:17] <FloodBot1> BacktRacK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:17] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, which one has 100 on the cpu? xorg?
[21:18] <BacktRacK> No its not even 100%
[21:18] <BacktRacK> its only 3 %
[21:18] <Gentoo64> it could be a nvidia driver bug,
[21:18] <BacktRacK> lol
[21:18] <BacktRacK> Thats what im sayin
[21:18] <FloodBot1> BacktRacK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:18] <BacktRacK> the cpu's arent even maxed out
[21:18] <Gentoo64> what are you on about then BacktRacK
[21:18] <BacktRacK> I was wondering why my load average was high?...
[21:18] <BacktRacK> when theres nothing barely using my cpu
[21:18] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, something that was previously running
[21:19] <nn> why is my sound not outputting any bass?
[21:19] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, no way to tell
[21:19] <iseedeadpixels> My mouse pointer jumps all over the place, it does not recognize it's a elantech touchpad
[21:19] <iseedeadpixels> [    1.420440] mousedev: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
[21:19] <BacktRacK> So what do i do reinstall nvidia driver?
[21:19] <rhizmoe> yikes, linuxquestions.org is impossible on a phone
[21:19] <magpii> ok, thanks for the info, it seams to have installed now
[21:19] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, no id leave it if its idling now. the nvidia drivers had bugs where itd use infinite cpu on a range of apps until you logged out
[21:20] <[twisti]> hello, i run ubuntu lts 10.04 as a server, and i would like to allow my users to get their email with an email program of their choice. is postfix the right thing to read the documentation of ? or is that only for the server sending mail out ?
[21:20] <necron> net.org
[21:20] <rhizmoe> [twisti]: dovecot, cyrus...any imap server really
[21:20] <iseedeadpixels> Anyone?
[21:21] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, id make a forum post or google it if you're getting no response
[21:21] <[twisti]> thanks
[21:21] <iseedeadpixels> i tried, no dice
[21:21] <BacktRacK> so Gentoo64  i wouldnt be to worryed about it?
[21:21] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, no i wouldnt
[21:22] <BacktRacK> Gentoo64,  unless it goes over like 10? lmao
[21:22] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, if your on gnome leave the system monitor running so you can keep an eye on the cpu usage for a while
[21:22] <BacktRacK> Gentoo64,  gentoo thats the thing thought the cpu usage is fine... the max its been at is 1.2...
[21:22] <Gentoo64> or top, whatever. sounds like somehting was just using the cpu then stopped
[21:22] <Gentoo64> thats normal
[21:23] <BacktRacK> now the number are 0.66, 0.70, 0.70
[21:23] <Gentoo64> with heavy threads and compiling mines gone to over 10
[21:23] <Gentoo64> thats completely fine
[21:23] <graft> yo, is there an easy way to create a launcher that will open a specific PDF in !%)(*! unity?
[21:23] <Gentoo64> how many cores have you got?
[21:23] <BacktRacK> 4
[21:23] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, ^
[21:23] <BacktRacK> but it says i have 8 logical cores
[21:23] <Gentoo64> 1.2 is nothing for quad
[21:23] <Tiders> Im trying to find some sort of program that I can put onto my taskbar or use a hotkey to conviently and quickly switch resolutions / resize all windows icons etc
[21:23] <BacktRacK> intel core i7
[21:23] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, its all fine. move on lol
[21:24] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, 1.2 doesnt mean 100% cpu usage
[21:24] <BacktRacK> i know it doesnt
[21:24] <BacktRacK> i was worryed about load average
[21:24] <iseedeadpixels> Gentoo64: [   30.395068] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7
[21:24] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, if it was 5 or 6 id be a bit concerned
[21:25] <iseedeadpixels> it recognizes the mou-e but doesn't recog it in Mouse settings
[21:25] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, saying that mine is 0.0 0.1 0.7
[21:25] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, but im just on xchat and term

[21:27] <BacktRacK> 98.4 id
[21:27] <BacktRacK> :P
[21:27] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, id only worry if it was stuck on high cpu usage
[21:27] <[twisti]> how can i find out whats using my port 110 ?
[21:27] <BacktRacK> kk
[21:27] <BacktRacK> ty
[21:28] <DasEi> [twisti]: man nestat tells you
[21:28] <[twisti]> ah, how i missed this attitude
[21:29] <Tiders> Is there anyway to get rid of the dissapearing scroll bar and make it always present
[21:30] <BacktRacK> Gentoo64,  to be honest with you thought... 10.04 runs way better for me then 11.04
[21:31] <Gentoo64> BacktRacK, im not surprised. from what i hear 11.04 is the worst version so far
[21:31] <graft> Tiders: which scrollbar?
[21:31] <Syria> Hi!! I connect to the internet using a tunnel through my VPS using this command in a terminal ssh -D port<EMAIL_ADDRESS>how can I add this command to system startup automatically?

[21:31] <iseedeadpixels> Gentoo64: Synaptic Packaga Manager doesn't accept my passvord
[21:31] <graft> Tiders: try changing your theme?
[21:31] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, num/capslock?
[21:32] <graft> Tiders: in system settings/appearance
[21:32] <iseedeadpixels> no, it works when sudo'ing in a term.
[21:32] <Tiders> graft, Every theme has it....
[21:32] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, no idea :s
[21:32] <graft> Tiders: oh, you're right... hm, i guess this is a gtk3 thing
[21:33] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, try rebooting for the sake of it, it might sort itself out
[21:33] <Tiders> graft, Its terrible for my tablet...  How do I get newer FF or do I need to update Ubuntu?
[21:33] <xangua> !language | iseedead
[21:33] <Syria> !language
[21:33] <xangua> !fx7 | wkussmaul
[21:34] <ssma> can any one tell how use aircrack
[21:34] <xangua> !fx6 | wkussmaul you get fx7 ;)
[21:34] <Gentoo64> ssma, google it
[21:34] <Tiders> graft No way to fix it that you know of eh?
[21:34] <xangua> ssma: not supported here
[21:34] <Gentoo64> afaik cracking wireless is illegal
[21:34] <wkussmaul> what's a ppa?
[21:34] <sekyourbox> how do I prevent auto reconnect/join in IRSSI?
[21:34] <Syria> Guys please help me with that ssh -D thing I want for the tunnel to start automatically on system boot.
[21:34] <h00k> !ppa | wkussmaul
[21:35] <Gentoo64> wkussmaul, a repo thats not ubuntus
[21:35] <viktyr_korimir> Gentoo64: Hell, not even cracking it. Using unsecured wireless without permission is illegal.
[21:35] <viktyr_korimir> Gentoo64: At least in the States.
[21:35] <graft> Tiders: apparently you can just do apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar liboverlay-scrollbar*
[21:35] <[twisti]> i think theres something wrong with my dovecot
[21:35] <iseedeadpixels> anyone, please suggest me a painless way to encrypt my entire laptop?
[21:35] <[twisti]> /etc/init.d/dovecot stop doesnt stop it
[21:35] <Gentoo64> viktyr_korimir, yea, idk all the rules :) i dont even use wireless
[21:35] <graft> Tiders: yeah, there seem to be bad design decisions all around in this new ubuntu world
[21:35] <[twisti]> pop3-login is still running and blocking the port
[21:35] <sekyourbox> how do I prevent auto reconnect/join in IRSSI?
[21:35] <edwardpatch> can i have a desktop recorder for ubuntu
[21:36] <edwardpatch> plz
[21:36] <[twisti]> any idea why it would do that ?
[21:36] <wkussmaul> Yeah, I really don't want to mess with a version of FF that Synaptics doesn't know about - I don't have time to deal with the potential fallout.
[21:36] <h00k> ubottu: truecrypt | iseedeadpixels
[21:36] <[twisti]> i get no error trying to stop dovecot
[21:36] <Gentoo64> h00k, last i heard TC only did windows full disk, or has it changed?
[21:36] <viktyr_korimir> Gentoo64: The laws on this matter are... a little insane. Written by people who don't know computers. Technically, you can do prison time for violating a website's TOS.
[21:36] <sekyourbox> how do I prevent auto reconnect/join in IRSSI?
[21:36] <Gentoo64> yea its mad
[21:36] <Tiders> graft Much better after I removed that
[21:36] <wkussmaul> Just want to know why the package manager is stuck on FF 3.6
[21:36] <h00k> Gentoo64: No clue, but I bet that wiki tells about it
[21:36] <viktyr_korimir> Gentoo64: In practice that's only happened a couple of times, but it's possible.
[21:37] <iseedeadpixels> h00k: doesn't support full disk encryption like LUKS / dm-crypt
[21:37] <Gentoo64> some people just get unlucky
[21:37] <xangua> !latest | wkussmaul
[21:37] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, afaik it doesnt do full disk on linux, only containers
[21:37] <Gentoo64> or non system drives /partitions
[21:37] <sekyourbox> how do I prevent auto reconnect/join in IRSSI?
[21:37] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, read the irssi docs
[21:38] <sekyourbox> I did
[21:38] <wkussmaul> ok, thanks. Since there have been so many updates since 3.6 I hope that changes soon.
[21:38] <iseedeadpixels> Gentoo64: LUKS / dm-crypt is causing me headaches
[21:38] <wkussmaul> Thanks for the feedback.
[21:38] <iseedeadpixels> Broke my touchpad, can't use synaptic, etc
[21:38] <sekyourbox> IRSSI docs said ask in #ubuntu
[21:38] <Gentoo64> iSeeDead1ixels, i havent used encryption in a long time. never used anything but TC
[21:39] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, really? wheres the link
[21:39] <iseedeadpixels> sekyourbox: #irssi
[21:39] <Gentoo64> its not ubuntu specific
[21:39] <glebihan> [twisti], the command to stop dovecot is "sudo service dovecot stop"
[21:39] <sekyourbox> k, asking in IRSSI
[21:39] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, do you use gnome?
[21:39] <sekyourbox> gnome kde, windows, whatever
[21:40] <Gentoo64> makes sense
[21:40] <graft> does anyone know how to make a custom launcher for a PDF in unity?
[21:40] <iseedeadpixels> HELP :'(
[21:40] <[twisti]> glebihan: then someone should correct https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/dovecot-server.html
[21:40] <[twisti]> but thanks for the tip, ill try that
[21:40] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, xchat is my fave, do you need a cli one?
[21:41] <sekyourbox> I hate xchat, sorry Gentoo64
[21:41] <Gentoo64> graft, just make a launcher pointing to the pdf
[21:41] <iseedeadpixels> Gentoo64: irssi is the best
[21:41] <sekyourbox> too many spploits
[21:41] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, ok
[21:41] <graft> Gentoo64: okay, how?
[21:41] <Gentoo64> i dont know
[21:41] <Gentoo64> lol
[21:41] <iseedeadpixels> ffs
[21:42] <Gentoo64> can you not right click the bar and add launcher?
[21:42] <Gentoo64> maybe add one in local share apps and it may appear
[21:42] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, what exploits?
[21:42] <Gentoo64> explit me
[21:42] <iseedeadpixels> this laptop needs to work properly b4 tomorrow
[21:42] <sekyourbox> they come out every now and then... never seen one for irssi
[21:42] <graft> Gentoo64: right-click doesn't do anything.. i can probably do it by writing a .desktop file, but i'd really rather not
[21:43] <Gentoo64> graft, might be the only way. google for unity make launcher. or something
[21:43] <Gentoo64> sorry
[21:43] <graft> Gentoo64: yeah, i'm afraid that's probably the case... this thing is such a !@#%!@%
[21:43] <Gentoo64> sekyourbox, meh i dont worry much about that :)
[21:43] <zelozelos> im using the mmb to rotate the cube, how do i get the mmb to not rotate the cube when focused in a window?
[21:44] <Gentoo64> graft, maybe youd find it better with classic mode? or do you like unity?
[21:45] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64,  yeh when i loaded up firebox and went to utube and played a vid
[21:45] <BacKtraK> the cpu was using npviewer
[21:45] <BacKtraK> 60%
[21:45] <graft> Gentoo64: there's no classic mode in oneiric, which is what i'm on right now
[21:45] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, ah flash, not exactly well known for being not buggy
[21:46] <BacKtraK> Hm maybe its the kernel?
[21:46] <Gentoo64> graft, oh ok. youll need to ask in #ubuntu+1
[21:46] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, i doubt it. flash is well known for being dodgy. all sorts of issues
[21:46] <BacKtraK> Im pretty sure like u said its a nvidia bug
[21:46] <Gentoo64> could well be
[21:46] <Gentoo64> nvidia + flash sounds possible
[21:46] <Gentoo64> should be using vdpau actually
[21:46] <Gentoo64> so shouldnt even use cpu
[21:47] <antihoax> on linux i'd go for ati
[21:47] <rhizmoe> erf
[21:47] <antihoax> it has opensource drivers
[21:47] <BacKtraK> Hm im wondering if i went to the nvidia website installed their driver?.. i know ppl say not to do it but
[21:47] <Gentoo64> i wouldnt...
[21:47] <Gentoo64> and nouveau isnt?
[21:47] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, nah i wouldnt
[21:47] <antihoax> well its not that cool
[21:47] <gr33n7007h> it works flawlessly
[21:47] <BacKtraK> what does green
[21:47] <Gentoo64> nouveau is fine for me
[21:47] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64,  what if i blacklist nou?
[21:48] <Gentoo64> not fast but no problems at all
[21:48] <gr33n7007h> nvidia website
[21:48] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, should already be done
[21:48] <BacKtraK> i know its not done on 11.04
[21:48] <BacKtraK> because i installed their drivers from nvidia website
[21:48] <BacKtraK> on 11.04
[21:48] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, you can use the nvidias drivers from the site. the newer ones do fix bugs but it might not even be that
[21:48] <antihoax> i couldnt install nvidia binary drivers last time i tried
[21:48] <BacKtraK> lol
[21:48] <BacKtraK> anti
[21:49] <BacKtraK> u have ti blacklist something in blacklist.conf, u had to kill x
[21:49] <BacKtraK> then hit control + alt + f1 for cmd window
[21:49] <gr33n7007h> u have to install them outside of X
[21:49] <BacKtraK> then go to the direct an install the driver
[21:49] <kw01f> Hi
[21:49] <BacKtraK> then go service gdm start
[21:49] <BacKtraK> and should be done
[21:49] <BacKtraK> ;)
[21:50] <BacKtraK> to kill X service gdm stop
[21:50] <BacKtraK> sounds esy enuff right?
[21:50] <leeping> Hi there, what is the error "invalid arch independent ELF magic" when Ubuntu is booting?
[21:51] <SetiAmon> Keeblers back on dope
[21:51] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64,  imma just try that if it isnt that then ill just uninstall them
[21:51] <Gentoo64> http://www.elf-magic.com/
[21:51] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, ok. try them see if they help
[21:51] <Gentoo64> ive had issues with terminals using unifnite cpu with certain nvidia drivers before
[21:52] <zelozelos>  im using ubuntu with compiz, i have the mmb set to rotate the cube but it is making it so that i cant rotate the veiw in blender. anyone know how to disable the view rotation when focused in a window?
[21:52] <antihoax> BacKtraK<< actually i did init 3 then unpacked the binary driver, then added GPL code licence to nvidia source because gcc told me it was incompatible, started the driver install, it told me the driver is not available for my kernel, also installer failed to find the install directories it was wired
[21:53] <BacKtraK> 895 shawn     20   0  225m  36m  16m S   45  0.6   0:11.91 npviewer.bin
[21:53] <BacKtraK> ^^
[21:53] <BacKtraK> it was just at fuckin 120
[21:53] <BacKtraK> LOL
[21:53] <FloodBot1> BacKtraK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:53] <LjL> !language | BacKtraK
[21:53] <BacKtraK> sorry but i mean 120?
[21:53] <BacKtraK> cpu
[21:53] <BacKtraK> OL
[21:53] <antihoax> then added nvidia to xorg.conf, removed dri and dri2 load
[21:53] <BacKtraK> anti the way i said sounds esyer
[21:53] <BacKtraK> :P
[21:54] <BacKtraK> top - 17:54:01 up 15 min,  2 users,  load average: 1.93, 1.31, 0.76
[21:54] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, soudns like a flash bug
[21:54] <antihoax> then i ended up in system hangup when nvidia kernel module loaded and x11 started
[21:54] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, google npviewer.bin and look at all the results
[21:54] <antihoax> this is why i dont like nvidia
[21:55] <zoned> i'm trying to run a perl script, set up a scriptalias /cgi/bin -> /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and put my files there... but when i try to go to it in my browser i get a 500 error, and it's apparently not being logged... my error.log actually hasnt been updated in 4 days (which also seems unlikely)... any ideas?
[21:55] <Gentoo64> ive only ever had that terminal problem, been using nvidia for years no problems ever
[21:55] <Gentoo64> but what do you expect its a bin no one else can fix it
[21:55] <antihoax> well i have linux kernel 3.0.3
[21:55] <BacKtraK> Lol anti like i said.. all u need to do is blacklist some things... in blacklist.conf.. an then kill x server... service gdm stop.. then do control + alt + f1 for term... then go into the driver direct.. an then install
[21:56] <Gentoo64> antihoax, and? i have 3.0.4
[21:56] <Gentoo64> no probs
[21:56] <antihoax> ok
[21:56] <BacKtraK> kern 3.0.0 gave me probs in 11.04
[21:56] <BacKtraK> lol
[21:56] <antihoax> btw
[21:56] <antihoax> does nvidia driver work with any realtime kernel?
[21:56] <BacKtraK> should? idk
[21:56] <Gentoo64> no idea
[21:56] <antihoax> Linux matrix.arpa 3.0.3-rt12 #14 SMP PREEMPT RT Sat Sep 24 03:40:24 CEST 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[21:57] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64, this is what happens
[21:57] <antihoax> i remember someone said that will not work
[21:57] <BacKtraK> when i play a youtube vid it goes ski high (npviewer)
[21:57] <BacKtraK> then when its done
[21:57] <BacKtraK> it goes to 3%
[21:57] <Gentoo64> antihoax, realtime can cause issues i hear. ive never use rt
[21:57] <guest91108> hello fellas, one one of you mind helping me?
[21:57] <LjL> everyone, please:
[21:57] <LjL> !enter
[21:57] <LjL> !u
[21:57] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, like i said google that process and you'll see its a big fail
[21:58] <guest91108> hello fellas, one one of you mind helping me?.
[21:58] <Gentoo64> guest91108, whats the problem?
[21:58] <guest91108> well im running on a live USB and i need alittle help saveing my settings
[21:59] <Gentoo64> guest91108, what settings?
[21:59] <guest91108> well my drivers and personalization
[22:00] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64,  it said something about using the pref bar or something
[22:00] <Gentoo64> well itll be stored in ram until you save to disk
[22:00] <BacKtraK> Gentoo64,  i guess it wont use nvviewer.bin
[22:00] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, i have no idea :S i dont ever use flash
[22:00] <BacKtraK> np*
[22:00] <Gentoo64> BacKtraK, have you tried another browser?
[22:00] <BacKtraK> no
[22:01] <BacKtraK> would it matter?
[22:01] <guest91108> how do i save my settings from RAM to my live USB
[22:01] <Gentoo64> it probably uses the same thing. maybe try reinstalling flash see if it helps
[22:01] <Disorder> asdfa
[22:01] <Gentoo64> guest91108, there will be all sorts of files to copy over
[22:02] <Gentoo64> guest91108, can you not use a proper install?
[22:02] <Gentoo64> i think ubuntu has an option to create a custom live image
[22:03] <Gentoo64> not sure if that nvolves settings, or just packages
[22:03] <BacKtraK> imma try something gentoo
[22:03] <BacKtraK> :)
[22:03] <BacKtraK> ill be back
[22:03] <BacKtraK> i think i solved the npviewer.bin issue
[22:03] <BacKtraK> :D
[22:03] <FloodBot1> BacKtraK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:03] <Gentoo64> cool
[22:03] <guest91108> well for now i would just live to save them to my Live USB, i forgot to run in persistent mode
[22:03] <guest91108> like*
[22:05] <guest91108> Gentoo64, may i private chat with you to discuss my issue?
[22:05] <Gentoo64> guest91108, ive forgotten what it is already
[22:05] <Gentoo64> but ok
[22:06] <magpii> where do i find my laptops fan options under ubuntu?
[22:07] <Gentoo64> guest91108, you dont have to pm btw you can say in here case other people can help
[22:08] <rhizmoe> okay, so now that i'm on 11.04 with ubuntu classic, how do i figure out what video driver is being used, and will it be a waste of time to deal with nvidia-ness?
[22:09] <zoned> i'm trying to run a perl script, set up a scriptalias /cgi/bin -> /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and put my files there... but when i try to go to it in my browser i get a 500 error, and it's apparently not being logged... my error.log actually hasnt been updated in 4 days (which also seems unlikely)... any ideas?
[22:09] <Gentoo64> rhizmoe, id recommend nvidia for speed
[22:09] <antihoax> so ati is slower?
[22:09] <Gentoo64> rhizmoe, if you just browse web, chat etc you dont need nvidia. youd be better off with nouveau
[22:09] <antihoax> do we compare apples to bananas?
[22:09] <rhizmoe> okay. i've been wrestling with gnome all afternoon so i thought i'd ask.
[22:10] <rhizmoe> nouveau?
[22:10] <Gentoo64> antihoax, im not saying that. im comparing nvidia to nouveau not ati
[22:10] <antihoax> btw
[22:10] <antihoax> compiled in agpart in kernel and now glxgears makes 60% more fps
[22:10] <rhizmoe> ah, nv is deprecated. didn't know that.
[22:11] <selite> How do I change the permissions on a single folder in Ubuntu? I tried chmod a+rwx File but then when I enter from GUI I don't have permission to create files.
[22:11] <Gentoo64> nouveau is the os one to use
[22:11] <rhizmoe> swank
[22:11] <Gentoo64> selite, sudo before that
[22:11] <jrib> selite: what folder?
[22:11] <selite> Gentoo64: Yupp, I was root.
[22:12] <zoned> selite, i think you need to chmod with one of the sticky bits so all additional files created in that dir will have the specified permissions?
[22:12] <selite> jrib: Folder from my NTFS partition.
[22:12] <antihoax> does latest nouveau have good performance in 3d ?
[22:12] <psingh> I removed brasero and installed gnomebaker.  When I insert blank media, the dialog that pops up says "No applications found."  The other media tab in nautilus also gives the same message.  Anyone know where the launcher for gnomebaker should be placed so it get's picked up?  I tried adding entries to /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache without luck.  There are no conflicting entries in my .local folder.
[22:12] <selite> jrib: When I do ls -l Folder. I can see that for every user rwx is enabled  but when I enter from GUI I can't modify a file.
[22:12] <Gentoo64> antihoax, no it never has. apparently it can play basic stuff like neverball ok
[22:12] <jrib> selite: ntfs does not use unix style permissions.  Set them with mount options
[22:12] <Xan> good eventing
[22:12] <antihoax> aham
[22:13] <selite> jrib: How?
[22:13] <jrib> !ntfs > selite
[22:13] <Gentoo64> antihoax, none of the os drivers are anywhere near as fast as the prop ones
[22:13] <Xan> cant seem to be able to upgrade to firefox 7 on natty... still says 6.0.2 is the most recent one
[22:13] <antihoax> guessing because only they know how it works
[22:14] <Gentoo64> yea ofc
[22:15] <Gentoo64> antihoax, they do try to reverse engineer to see how it works, but nouveau want their own stuff
[22:15] <Xan> did any of you upgrade to firefox 7 in natty?
[22:16] <psingh> Xan, I presume you added the PPA... ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable
[22:16] <Xan> i did
[22:16] <magpii> someone know how i can turn the fan on my laptop under ubuntu please
[22:16] <Planewalker_Alph> Hello
[22:16] <rhizmoe> what does a colon mean in synaptic's version column?
[22:16] <Xan> psingh: added... removed... added again... no result
[22:17] <rhizmoe> ok, apparently i'm already running nouveau? it's installed anyway
[22:18] <Gentoo64> rhizmoe, noveau is default until you put nvidia on
[22:18] <Gentoo64> its the kernel driver
[22:18] <Xan> checking that ppa it only shows packages for lucid and maveric
[22:19] <rhizmoe> okay. am i stuck on classic for the foreseeable future (i.e. beyond this afternoon)?
[22:19] <rhizmoe> "stuck" in only the most positive sense of the word
[22:19] <Gentoo64> id say thats a good thing
[22:20] <Planewalker_Alph> I hate to interrupt, but I have a question (Pls keep in mind that I am new to ubuntu). How do you set and use ssh? I am trying to set up a netbook to connect to my home box.
[22:20] <DasEi> !ssh | Planewalker_Alph
[22:21] <Planewalker_Alph> Thank you!
[22:21] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: simply install ssh on both sides and change a line in /etc/sshd_conf
[22:22] <DasEi> err,  sshd_config it is
[22:22] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[22:24] <poison> alguien puede ayudarme con un problema con el grub?
[22:24] <DasEi> !es
[22:25] <DasEi> poison: speak english ?
[22:27] <DasEi> !pm | Planewalker_Alph, change passwordAuth to yes
[22:27] <Planewalker_Alph> Sorry about that.
[22:28] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: #PasswordAuthentication yes  to PasswordAuthentication yes
[22:28] <Planewalker_Alph> Ah! Found it!
[22:28] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: line 50 in my editor
[22:29] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: and then also install fail2ban
[22:29] <DasEi> !info fail2ban
[22:29] <DasEi> it protects from bruteforceattacks via ssh
[22:30] <psingh> Anyone know how to replace brasero with gnomebaker?
[22:31] <BaCkTracK> kk fixed it
[22:31] <BaCkTracK> just dled a new browser
[22:31] <BaCkTracK> doesnt use npviewer
[22:31] <BaCkTracK> :P
[22:31] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: as you could see in config, one could also use hostbased auth, but for a quick startup that's the fastest method, just use existing userpasswords
[22:31] <BaCkTracK> :)
[22:32] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: all done so far ?
[22:32] <Planewalker_Alph> Installing fail2ban. Brb
[22:32] <DasEi> k,ping when ready
[22:32] <Gentoo64> id use keys tbh
[22:32] <Planewalker_Alph> sudo apt-get install fail2ban

[22:35] <DasEi> Planewalker_Alph: ssh UserNameRemoteHostHere@IPremoteHere

[22:36] <Ellipsis753> I'd quite like to split my screen down the middle to make "two mini ones", So I could have 2 "maximised" programs open at any one time. Is this possible? I hear it can be done on windows?
[22:37] <Gentoo64> tiling?
[22:37] <Kjekken> why does calatlyst tell me i have to reboot if i want to change something in my dual screen setup? for instance enabeling another screen
[22:37] <DasEi> Ellipsis753: terminator is your friend
[22:37] <DasEi> !info terminator
[22:38] <LasersFarm> Ellipsis753: Compiz. Download extra plugin. Toggle on "grid" -- You can position the windows many different ways.
[22:38] <hansg01> i shifted my data to fedora 15
[22:38] <DasEi> Kjekken: it's just about restarting the xserver
[22:38] <Ellipsis753>  DasEi, thanks but I mean other programs other than the terminal. That does look cool though.
[22:38] <hansg01> and when i got it back
[22:38] <Ellipsis753> LasersFarm, That may be just what I need, thank you.
[22:39] <hansg01> eveything was protected how to change permissions change all at once? or i hv to change one by one manually
[22:39] <LasersFarm> Ellipsis753: No problem. Are you using computer or laptop?
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> hansg01: sudo chown -R $USER:USER $HOME     should do it
[22:39] <Gentoo64> chown -r
[22:40] <hansg01> and where to mention the directory?
[22:40] <LasersFarm> Linux should make it -R and -r same. :O
[22:40] <Kjekken> why do i have to reset the xserver manualy?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> hansg01: you need to make the data owned by your user, its probably owned by root
[22:40] <Kjekken> why cant catalyst do it for me?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> Kjekken: it would lose data as apps would die
