[03:23] <acerimmer> abstrakt: yes.
[03:23] <abstrakt> acerimmer, how can i find out if i have the realtime kernel installed...
[03:23] <acerimmer> abstrakt: new kernel will show up in the grub menu at boot
[03:23] <roberto_> abstrakt: uname -a I would guess shows rt if it is the rt kernel ?
[03:23] <acerimmer> abstrakt: linux - kernel - yada yada "rt"
[03:24] <abstrakt> acerimmer, yeah i don't have that at boot
[03:24] <abstrakt> acerimmer, i made a note when you asked me to reboot
[03:24] <abstrakt> acerimmer, and uname -a doesn't report an "rt" kernel either
[03:24] <abstrakt> acerimmer, synaptic finds an rt-kernel image
[03:24] <acerimmer> abstrakt: what method did you use to install stuio
[03:24] <zetheroo> how can I tell if the version of Virtual Box I have installed is the 64bit version or not?
[03:24] <abstrakt> acerimmer, but it's not installed
[03:24] <ouyes> hi all when i try to make a makefile there are errors but i have all the requirements,glibc 2.4 pthreads,libxml2(i use sudo apt-get install glibc, but it can not find it ) what is wrong?
[03:24] <acerimmer> abstrakt: what method did you use to install studio?
[03:25] <abstrakt> acerimmer, i just installed the ubuntustudio-desktop package from synaptic
[03:25] <Klick> hi
[03:25] <acerimmer> abstrakt: wiait 1
[03:25] <Klick> is there a program in ubuntu to compile several flash video files into one?
[03:26] <crypt-0> avidemux should do it Klick
[03:26] <coolbtk> wow.  Apparently all I had to do was switch the output to the speakers... I didn't have the option to switch between the speakers and the jack before, now i do.
[03:26] <abstrakt> acerimmer, k
[03:26] <acerimmer> abstrakt: any new applications??
[03:26] <onetinsoldier> ouyes: show me an exact error message
[03:26] <abstrakt> acerimmer, what do you mean
[03:26] <Klick> is there a program in ubuntu to compile several flash video files into one?
[03:27] <abstrakt> acerimmer, what do you mean by new applications
[03:27] <frmdstryr> kino, its a dv eitor
[03:27] <PHLAK> anony know why clickin in a window doesn't bring it to the front? ( I have to click on the title bar to get it to jump to the front)
[03:27] <acerimmer> abstrakt: Applications>Sound & Video>Audio Production or Video Production
[03:27] <mannyv> i just install lucid server with a raid1 and it wont boot I  am getting no init found and a busybox prompt. anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
[03:27] <trystan> i have a question about upgrading from 9.04 (to 9.10) to 10.04.
[03:27] <abstrakt> acerimmer, um, yeah what of it
[03:27] <abstrakt> i have audacity and ardour
[03:27] <abstrakt> both
[03:27] <coolbtk> still have nothing on my internal mic though, and no similar "connector" setting for that
[03:27] <abstrakt> but neither will record anything
[03:28] <abstrakt> when i click record in either, i get basically nothing
[03:28] <bazhang> trystan, need to take all steps, no skipping version
[03:28]  * abstrakt wonders if he needs to run those as root as well
[03:28] <onetinsoldier> ouyes: i'd guess that you don't have the header files installed, the -dev packages for the libs
[03:28] <abstrakt> i had to run kino as root to get it to work
[03:28] <acerimmer> abstrakt: just checking.  It's possible that synaptic missed some packages.  Wait one for cli
[03:28] <Klick> is there a program in ubuntu to compile several flash video files into one?
[03:28] <bambang> Ctrl + L = "$echo -e \\033c", do u know Alt + F9 = ??????
[03:29] <trystan> bazhang, i know that part... but i like shortcuts.  my question is will i have to reinstall things like my firewall program... or will my settings (like the icons on my top toolbar) change?
[03:29] <abstrakt> aha
[03:29] <abstrakt> that was it
[03:29] <abstrakt> have to run that shit as root
[03:29] <abstrakt> figures
[03:29] <FloodBot2> abstrakt: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:29] <CaptainTrek> !language | abstrakt
[03:29] <abhijain> bambang: USE HTML5
[03:29] <bazhang> trystan, which firewall program?
[03:29]  * abstrakt hugs his enter key
[03:29] <abstrakt> i'm gonna get banned by floodbot lol
[03:29] <trystan> bazhang, Firestarter
[03:29] <PHLAK> why wont windows jump to the front when I click in it? I have to click the title bar for it to jump.
[03:30] <acerimmer> abstrakt: terminal command to get complete ubuntu studio  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/JjXP1CYj
[03:30] <abstrakt> acerimmer, i still don't have the realtime kernel installed though
[03:30] <elky> the word run and words for poop are things that really should not share sentences kthxbai
[03:30] <bazhang> trystan, they will be upgraded across the various releases
[03:30] <abstrakt> it's an older kernel from what i can see
[03:30] <abstrakt> .9
[03:30] <abstrakt> as opposed to .21
[03:30] <acerimmer> abstrakt: check the pastebin
[03:30] <trystan> very cool, bazhang.  it won't mess up my data or anything either, will it?
[03:30] <trystan> i mean, i know i should have back ups
[03:30] <kprav33n> I figured out why my volume control icon disappeared after upgrade. It is now merged with the indicator applet.
[03:30] <bazhang> trystan, keep backups of course :)
[03:31] <MarquisDeMizzle> after upgrading to 10.04 my /etc/hosts file is getting replaced by NetworkManager on every reboot.  anyone seen something similar?
[03:31] <trystan> bazhang - of course.  but i shouldn't need them... should i?
[03:31] <acerimmer> abstrakt: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video linux-rt
[03:31] <bazhang> trystan, no issues here doing same, but better to play it safe; you said you had a separate home partition, correct?
[03:32] <YuviPanda> my lucid upgrade went awry, so I'm redoing it by using  a LiveCD and chrooting
[03:32] <trystan> bazhang, actually i didn't - but i do have a second hard drive in my computer i can use
[03:32] <abstrakt> acerimmer, i think i'll just stick with linux-rt for now
[03:32] <abstrakt> thx tho
[03:32] <YuviPanda> but it's been stuck at "Regenerating hal fdi cache" for the past 10 mins or so
[03:32] <YuviPanda> suggestions?
[03:33] <histo> hello
[03:33] <greekpenguin> hi
[03:33] <bambang> Ctrl + L = "$echo -e \\033c", do u know Alt + F9 = ??????
[03:33] <acerimmer> abstrakt: don't forget to do the post-install steps at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu%20Studio%20Upgrade%20from%20Ubuntu
[03:33] <zetheroo> you guys seeing this stuff? : New Ubuntu eats more power than Windows 7
[03:33] <zetheroo> http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/1610079/new-ubuntu-eats-power-windows
[03:33] <bazhang> zetheroo, dont paste here
[03:33] <zetheroo> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_windows_part2&num=2
[03:34] <zetheroo> oops
[03:34] <zetheroo> bazhang: why?
[03:34] <bazhang> zetheroo, this is not chit chat. its support ONLY
[03:34] <Izinucs> for some reason pastbinit is not working for me.. when I try to pastbinit a file it only returns "http://pastebin.com" .. any idea what's happening?
[03:34] <PHLAK> why wont my windows jump to the front when they get focus? I have to click the title bar for it to jump.
[03:34] <bazhang> Izinucs, its pastebinit
[03:35] <abstrakt> k installing realtime kernel now
[03:35] <abstrakt> hopefully it still works :)
[03:35] <zetheroo> bazhang: I was going to ask about it ...
[03:35] <PHLAK> why wont windows jump to the front when I click in it? I have to click the title bar for it to jump.
[03:35] <bazhang> zetheroo, then do so in the -offtopic channel
[03:35] <Izinucs> bazhang: yea.. I spelled it correctly when I tried it....
[03:35] <trystan> bazhang, one more question - will my little setting change? like my top and bottom menu bars are almost transparent.  will that change when i upgrade?
[03:35] <LuisV> hello, good evening, is possible to change the startup sound theme with another sound archive?..like an mp3
[03:36] <zetheroo> bazhang: ask for support in the offtopic channel? You know they don't dig that!
[03:36] <bazhang> trystan, mine did not, if you have some custom third party themes they may not work
[03:36] <zetheroo> bazhang: but if you say so ...
[03:36] <YuviPanda> great, now when I run 'top' from my livecd, I get a Input/Output error
[03:37] <trystan> bazhang, i don't, so it shouldn't change.  did you see my comment above somewhere where i mentioned i have a second hard drive i can use for backup?
[03:37] <bazhang> trystan, then should be okay. my themes, fiddling etc remained constant
[03:37] <mdg2> Hello!  I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 - just now it won't boot and the caps lock, num lock and scroll lock keys all blink in unison a number of times before it shuts off.  Any idea what this is?
[03:37] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: !!!!
[03:37] <LuisV> [_]P
[03:38] <zetheroo> so how do I check my power consumption?
[03:38] <trystan> awesome, thanks, bazhang!
[03:38]  * trystan *poof*
[03:38] <Jonathancwtn> Question, I have Alsa installed, newest version - but Im getting no audio.  Anyone an expert in this realm?
[03:39] <bambang> can u solve my problem: Ctrl + L = "$echo -e \\033c", do u know Alt + F9 = ??????
[03:39] <mdg2> Hello!  I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 - just now it won't boot and the caps lock, num lock and scroll lock keys all blink in unison a number of times before it shuts off.  Any idea what this is?
[03:39] <uLinux> Lucid is buggy
[03:40] <acerimmer> zetheroo: System Monitor
[03:40] <hellphyre> Lucid is awesome... and buggy...
[03:40] <bazhang> uLinux, please file some bug reports then
[03:40] <zetheroo> uLinux: heh .. isn't that true of all OS's?
[03:40] <Hyp3r> How do I play a sound using command line
[03:40] <LuisV> is possible to change the startup sound theme with another sound archive?..like a mp3
[03:40] <myrl> hello
[03:40] <uLinux> im comparing with Karmic
[03:40] <Hyp3r> or more accurate Terminal
[03:41] <mdg2> Hyp3r: yes - what format?
[03:41] <myrl> how can i install windows without destroying grub?
[03:41] <zetheroo> uLinux: what are you experiencing?
[03:41] <lao5> empathy is not very smooth in ubuntu 10.04
[03:41] <Hyp3r> mdg2 doesnt matter
[03:41] <uLinux> monitor issues after boot
[03:41] <mgolisch> myrl: you cant
[03:41] <myrl> how can i install windows without destroying grub?
[03:41] <uLinux> the image
[03:41] <myrl> why
[03:41] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: is you alive?
[03:41] <mgolisch> myrl: because windows allways overwrites the mbr?
[03:41] <zetheroo> YAY ... I found out the problem with my Virtual Box and the HDD grinding!!! - I was using the 32bit version in 64bit Ubuntu ... heh ...
[03:42] <YuviPanda> it's getting stuck at hal installation again :(
[03:42] <mgolisch> myrl: but you can just restore grub from a livecd after installing windows
[03:42] <YuviPanda> is the fact that I'm upgrading from a chroot responsible?
[03:42] <JeoTheLeo> I want to upgrade to Lucid using my already downloaded desktop iso
[03:42] <dbum_> LuisV: you can change the sound but I'm pretty sure it has to be OGG.  I just used audacity to convert my mp3 to OGG
[03:42] <mdg2> Hyp3r: I like moc (Music on console)
[03:42] <acerimmer> myrl: can't.  windows WILL write a mbr record.  You'll have to reinstall grub
[03:42] <myrl> mgolisch cant you make it not to write mbr?
[03:42] <rww> JeoTheLeo: You can't. Only the alternate CD supports upgrades, not the desktop CD.
[03:42] <mgolisch> myrl: no
[03:43] <myrl> mgolisch oh ok
[03:43] <bazhang> JeoTheLeo, need the alternate for that
[03:43] <myrl> mgolisch thanks for the help
[03:43] <wsa> okay, so in 10.04, the 'interface' preference menu thing is gone -- what do I need to change in gconf-editor to have menus and buttons be just text and no icons?
[03:43] <JeoTheLeo> thanks mgolisch and bazhang
[03:43] <undecim> myrl: I suppose that some old BIOSes can block writing to the MBR, but it might make Windows installation fail
[03:43] <VinceN> Good Evening all, Wondering if anyone had any idea's on how we can Sync Tomboy notes with an iPOD Touch notes program.
[03:43] <acerimmer> wsa: ubuntu tweak application can do that
[03:43] <myrl> mgolisch ok
[03:43] <boletow> ubuntu 10.04 crashes frequently after upgrade, does anyone has the same issue
[03:44] <[BT]Brendan> All of a sudden I can only see 1 folder on my ntfs partition in nautilus and command line with ls ad I have no idea why that have disappeared.
[03:44] <acerimmer> !anyone|boletow
[03:44] <dranyam> guys I dual booted windows 7 and 10.04 and all seemed fine until i went back to boot windows and it gives me the schtick about wanting to run chkdisk but it cant any idea what caused this or how to fix it ?
[03:44] <CaptainTrek> dranyam: the partition size changed, so thats why
[03:44] <CaptainTrek> just run it
[03:44] <CaptainTrek> or dont run it
[03:44] <undecim> dranyam: Windows wants to chdisk after changes to the partition
[03:44] <dranyam> and now it gives me that error every time.... I mean it eventually boots windows but jeeez that error is annoying
[03:45] <acerimmer> dranyam: try booting windows dvd and then repair..Run check disk from the windows terminal
[03:45] <boletow> ubottu: ubuntu 10.04 crashes frequently after upgrade
[03:45] <mdg2> Hello!  I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 - just now it won't boot and the caps lock, num lock and scroll lock keys all blink in unison a number of times before it shuts off.  Any idea what this is?
[03:45] <dranyam> thank you guys
[03:45] <dranyam> and gals
[03:45] <dranyam> for that matter

[03:46] <myrl> ubottu tell myrl about grub2
[03:46] <zetheroo> how do you monitor your system' power usage?
[03:46] <acerimmer> !grub2|myrl
[03:46] <MarquisDeMizzle> so. he explained his issue and asked if anyone has experience in the same.  and that somehow leads to obfuscation of what's being sought?
[03:46] <Guest97598> im totally stuck, how do i connect via IRC to an ip address
[03:47] <Mutesounds> what is the name of the program that runs a terminal at the top and youp press f12 to pop it down
[03:47] <uLinux> cya
[03:47] <rww> Mutesounds: tilda or guake
[03:47] <Mutesounds> guake maybe
[03:47] <bazhang> Mutesounds, yakuake? something like that or tilda?
[03:47] <Mutesounds> its like yakuake
[03:47] <myrl> ubottu tell myrl about cake
[03:48] <bazhang> myrl, /msg ubottu please

[03:48] <UbuntuJeff> !cake > myrl
[03:48] <HighOnAmbien> very much
[03:49] <rww> wsa: /desktop/gnome/interface/
[03:49] <acerimmer> :( cake is a lie
[03:49] <myrl> lol
[03:49] <Mutesounds> lusers
[03:49] <myrl> ubottu is asleep now
[03:49] <bazhang> lets get back on topic please
[03:50] <myrl> has anyone seen the idea about online demos on ubuntu brainstorm?
[03:52] <[BT]Brendan> I all of a sudden cannot see all except 1 folder on my windows shared ntfs partition and i have no idea why; i did however manage to see the files once when I did "file > open" in a program but I cannot make it work again. any ideas?
[03:52] <PHLAK> anyone know why in ubuntu when I click a window that doesn't have focus it gains focus but doesn't move infront of other windws?
[03:53] <UbuntuJeff> [BT]Brendan, did you try unmount and then remount it?
[03:53] <myrl> anyone know why I cant adjust the volume when im in fullscreen?
[03:54] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, if its a game or something it might be taking control of your volume keys
[03:55] <myrl> ubuntujeff it is a game but how can i avoid that?
[03:55] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, what game?
[03:55] <[BT]Brendan> Ah yes, I see. Apparrently there is some other program creating a folder that is in the place of the mount location "/media/Storage/" so when i mount it, it appears as /media/Storage_/
[03:55] <myrl> ubuntujeff bzflag XD
[03:55] <[BT]Brendan> It's done this alot i just remembered, duh. but I don't know why or whats doing it
[03:56] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, never played it lol. going to download install right now and see if my volume button still works or not lol
[03:56] <myrl> ubuntujeff wow thanks a lot
[03:56] <myrl> ubuntujeff :D
[03:56] <myrl> ubuntujeff its in the software center
[03:56] <[BT]Brendan> sometimes its my webbrowser creating /media/Storage/Brendan/downloads/ but mostly its some strange unknown thing
[03:57] <abhifx> hi there. plymouth is running even after my system loads up. its eating my resources... any suggestions?
[03:57] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, found it installing now :)
[03:57] <myrl> ubuntujeff yay ;)
[03:57] <ChromiumChris> Can I make x86 files (a game) run under x64? or does it automatically work?
[03:58] <Radio-b> it should work automatically
[03:58] <ChromiumChris> thank you!
[03:58] <ChromiumChris> If it doesnt ill message back
[03:59] <Radio-b> you might have problems with older libs
[03:59] <Radio-b> but more than likely you won't
[03:59] <abstrakt> hmm, well i got my system to record in audacity
[03:59] <abstrakt> but not in ardour2
[04:00] <ChromiumChris> I'm getting the "i386" error thing
[04:00] <abstrakt> when i add a track, and then select the record button on that track, i can see the levels meter bounce as I speak into the mic
[04:00] <abstrakt> but when i click record, the record button just blinks at me and the cursor stays put, when i click play the cursor moves
[04:00] <abstrakt> but not when i click record
[04:01] <ChromiumChris> there is a bin version of the file too, however
[04:01] <abhifx> please someone help me.. plymouth is eating  60% + 40% cpu...plz
[04:02] <amabo> where are the files that chrome uses located (on ubuntu)?
[04:02] <_pg_> hello everyone, I installed lxde from synaptic on ubuntu Lucid and it is not quite the same as the live cd version, how do I remedy this? Also, the desktop applet refuses to show more than one "pane" (I have 4) and I can't get the clock applet to show normal (not military) time. Any suggestions for any of this?
[04:03] <ezrafree> okay, sorry, had to run to eat, but i'm back :)
[04:03] <abstrakt> w00t
[04:03] <abstrakt> nm
[04:03] <abstrakt> i figured it out :)
[04:03] <abstrakt> apparently you have to hit play and THEN hit record :)
[04:03] <abstrakt> weird
[04:03] <ChromiumChris> How do I open a bin file?
[04:03] <FloodBot2> abstrakt: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:05] <_juca> ChromiumChris: make it an executable with "chmod" and then execute it.
[04:05] <crdlb> _pg_: installing lubuntu-desktop might help
[04:05] <ChromiumChris> !info chmod
[04:05] <ChromiumChris> >_>
[04:05] <myrl> haha
[04:05] <abhifx> is this a normal behavior of plymouth?
[04:05] <ChromiumChris> chomd?
[04:06] <UbuntuJeff> chmod does exist in lucid
[04:06] <crdlb> ChromiumChris: chmod is already installed
[04:06] <UbuntuJeff> !chmod
[04:06] <ChromiumChris> ohh
[04:06] <myrl> !info cupsd
[04:06] <_pg_> crdlb, is there a way to do that withut installing abiword and 4 billion other programs I dont want?
[04:06] <myrl> !info cups
[04:06] <yaboo> trying to install samba and get package samba is not available
[04:06] <_juca> ChromiumChris: chmod a+x will give everyone permission for execute the file. then you can just sudo ./file.bin
[04:06] <yaboo> how can i resolve this please
[04:06] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, your right the volume doesn't work, I think it just that the game captures all keyboard inputs thats why
[04:06] <ChromiumChris> _juca, how do I use chmod?
[04:07] <UbuntuJeff> ChromiumChris, guessing your trying to make it an executable, so chmod +x nameoffile
[04:07] <crdlb> _pg_: I have no idea; perhaps they have a channel?
[04:07] <myrl> oh ok
[04:07] <myrl> ubuntujeff thanks anyway!!!
[04:07] <ChromiumChris> Ubuntujeff: Via terminal?
[04:07] <_juca>  ChromiumChris: chmod a+x will give everyone permission for execute the file. then you can just sudo ./file.bin
[04:07] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, no problem
[04:07] <myrl> ubuntujeff :D bye
[04:07] <UbuntuJeff> ChromiumChris, yes
[04:07] <ChromiumChris> ok
[04:07] <_pg_> crdlb, they do, but its deader than (insert cliche here)
[04:07] <UbuntuJeff> myrl, bye
[04:07] <zipper> hiya can any1 tell me how to kill a process on lucid?
[04:08] <greezmunkey> Does the server alternate also allow for off-line upgrades?
[04:08] <UbuntuJeff> zipper, bring up system monitor
[04:08] <_pg_> zipper, there is a force quit applet. you can quit it from system monitor, and im sure there is a cli way that i dont know
[04:08] <neuro_> is the ia32-*-java-bin package still available for lucid? and if so I don't know where I could find it :)
[04:08] <Corrine> zipper: killall processname?
[04:08] <_pg_> Corrine, ftw!
[04:08] <neuro_> I need the 32bit version of that java to do the following http://mad-scientist.net/juniper.html
[04:09] <_juca> zipper, use the ps utility with grep option to filter the process you want to know the pid and kill it
[04:09] <_pg_> does grep sound like an std to anyone else?
[04:09] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, why can't you just use the 64bit version?
[04:09] <neuro_> UbuntuJeff: silly proprietary juniper network connect client
[04:09] <zipper> thanks Corrine thanks UbuntuJeff
[04:10] <neuro_> UbuntuJeff: won't work with anything cept 32bit java version and is 32 binaries packaged in there, they ONLY support old versions of redhat, heh
[04:10] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, how do you use this program? I have no idea what it is lol
[04:10] <neuro_> UbuntuJeff: http://mad-scientist.net/juniper.html
[04:11] <neuro_> UbuntuJeff: basically it's a VPN client for juniper SSL concentrator
[04:11] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, ahh okay
[04:11] <neuro_> UbuntuJeff: yeah uber important so I can get to work network to actually do work, I picked ubuntu cause it was the easiest to get that setup in, but it seems lucid doesn't have the 32bit java package anymore like karmic did
[04:12] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, investigating one sec lol
[04:12] <Xavion> I'm testing for cross-distribution compatibility; can someone please confirm that "/proc/net/route", "/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_bytes" and "/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/tx_bytes" exist on your Ubuntu system?  You might wanna replace the 'eth0' with your default networking interface.
[04:13] <zus> is this a compiz thing? gnome-shell http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgKe9OZjz0Q&feature=related

[04:14] <tking> I'm wondering if my CPU is well enough to run Ubuntu 10.04. Everything is ok besides the clockrate(600mhz). It is a Celeron M w/ 512kb L2 cache and 1GB DDR2 400mhz, and has a GMA900... but I'm wondering if it will perform well at a low clockrate? How is the CPU usage?
[04:14] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, yeah but thats breezy lol
[04:14] <UbuntuJeff> neuro_, heres one for lucid https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/amd64/ia32-sun-java6-bin/6-15-1

[04:23] <neuro_> "/sbin/modprobe tun" doesn't work
[04:23] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: !!!!
[04:23] <neuro_> oh wow it's built in
[04:23] <greezmunkey> daniel: I can't speak for everyone, but I had Openfire, and LAMP installed here with other apps. They all run just fine.
[04:23] <greezmunkey> hellphyre: booya!
[04:24] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: so i changed my IRPstacksize in windows and viola, my network is fine and the memory error disappeared.
[04:24] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: :s

[04:25] <yaboo> when i install samba it is missing /etc/init.d/samba, how can i install this file
[04:25] <hellphyre> i still cannot browse with the windows share folder. but if i choose connect to option and specify folders i get in perfectly
[04:26] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: smbtree lists a ton of stuuf now
[04:26] <greezmunkey> hellphyre: That's about how you should expect it to work, but that can be "tweaked"
[04:26] <greezmunkey> hellphyre: finally huh!
[04:26] <taofd> is there a way to return my sytem to a base install? for example only packages in ubuntu-desktop?
[04:26] <neuro_> wow I get an email now and have to give out my information to get a copy of Java, I hate Oracle
[04:26] <jef91> I have all my samba packages installed (I believe) but I cannot mount any network shares from a windows machine on 10.04 - any suggestions
[04:26] <jsec> Does anyone know the procedure for altering the background on the lock screen dialog?
[04:26] <greezmunkey> yaboo: did you install with apt-get?
[04:27] <yaboo> greezmunkey: yes
[04:27] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: i wanted to stop in again quick and say thanks. you put some hours in this for no other reason than to be helpful. I appreciate it

[04:28] <thomazian1234456> my wireless usb adapter shows up with 'lsusb' but is not shown in 'iwconfig' what should i check
[04:29] <greezmunkey> yaboo: I'm checking mine, brb
[04:29] <yaboo> thanks greezmunkey
[04:29] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: hah
[04:29] <hellphyre> jef91: i just fixed this mess
[04:30] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: that is wieeeerd
[04:30] <greezmunkey> yaboo: that was probably converted to an upstart, I don't have one either, looking...
[04:30] <yaboo> huh?
[04:30] <greezmunkey> yaboo: ubuntu version pls
[04:30] <taofd> is there a way to return my sytem to a base install? for example only packages in ubuntu-desktop?
[04:30] <yaboo> 10.04
[04:30] <greezmunkey> hellphyre:  what?
[04:30] <greezmunkey> yaboo:  ok
[04:31] <hellphyre> jef91: what windows version are you connecting to?
[04:31] <lifestream> QUESTION: How do I stop VLC resizing the window depending on the video size? I asked at #videolan all day and no one anwered
[04:31] <yaboo> greezmunkey: following the ubunutu doco in server
[04:31] <hellphyre> greezmunkey: wierd that he instantly has the same issue i did while i was saying thanks to you
[04:31] <daniel> that's the main reason i'm afraid to upgrade to 10.04. i spent hours getting the syntax right in my fstab so that it mounts my windows share on boot. i don't wanna have to do it again
[04:31] <jef91> hellphyre Windows 7
[04:31] <CkhiKuzad> I would like to install 10.04 on my winblows drive on my PC. is this possible using Unetbootin?
[04:31] <greezmunkey> hellphyre: thanks for taking that on bra!
[04:31] <hellphyre> jef91: ultimate?
[04:31] <hellphyre> jef91: or home
[04:32] <jef91> hellphyre Professional
[04:32] <primetime> I have a frozen computer.  I was trying to open a pdf and now I have a black screen, cursor at top right (not flashing) and stuck mouse.  Help
[04:32] <ChogyDan> taofd: I use gtkorphan
[04:32] <hellphyre> jef91: run smbtree and see what it returns
[04:32] <histo> primetime: hit ctrl+alt+f1
[04:32] <primetime> tried ctrl+alt+f1...nothing
[04:32] <histo> primetime: see if you can atleast get a terminal login
[04:32] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: unetbootin is for turning a flash drive into a "bootable CD".... you can boot off usb then install from in there
[04:33] <greezmunkey> yaboo: are you sure you need /etc/init.d/samba, or is it really /etc/init.d/smbd
[04:33] <jef91> hellphyre it shows the Win7 system
[04:33] <histo> primetime: ctrl+alt+f1-f6 should be text terminals f7 is X
[04:33] <yaboo> greezmunkey: how do i restart samba then?
[04:33] <histo> primetime: do you have ssh installed on the machine?
[04:33] <bodom> how can I change mtime of a file?
[04:33] <hellphyre> jef91: ok this may be a quick solution hopefully jeff
[04:33] <primetime> histo:  no
[04:33] <histo> yaboo: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[04:33] <histo> primetime: hrm.. power cycle it is
[04:33] <CkhiKuzad> Dbum, is there a way to make GRUB boot from USB? i dont have that support in the BIOS
[04:33] <greezmunkey> yaboo: sudo service smbd stop (start, restart)
[04:33] <hellphyre> jef91: on win7 open regedit
[04:33] <jef91> I am open to suggestions hellphyre - quicker the better
[04:33] <abhijain1> sound icon is removed from my pannel how can i add it once again
[04:33] <yaboo> there is no samba file in /etc/init.d
[04:34] <bodom> CkhiKuzad: afaik, no
[04:34] <greezmunkey> yaboo: sudo service smbd stop (start, restart)
[04:34] <jef91> hellphyre And then?
[04:34] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: there might be.... you can burn iso to a disc.... or use wubi to install from within windows
[04:34] <hellphyre> jef91: browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer
[04:34] <hellphyre> \Parameters\IRPStackSize
[04:34] <histo> yaboo: is samba installed?
[04:34] <primetime> Is a power cycle harmful to computer?  I've done it before and the comp became so unresponsive (firefox would freeze on every website and I couldn't open any pdf) I have to reinstall
[04:34] <hellphyre> jef91: if it exists
[04:34] <yaboo> histo: i did apt-get install samba
[04:34] <jef91> and do what there hellphyre?
[04:34] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: probably a lot nicer than trying to get grub to do that(if possible)
[04:35] <CkhiKuzad> dbum, the reason i referred to windows as "winblows" is because i dont want windows anymore. i cant burn the ISO to a disk, i dont have a burner.
[04:35] <hellphyre> jef91: if it exists, what the value in decimal?
[04:35] <histo> primetime: could be if data isn't saved etc... but what else can you do at this point? try hittign ctrl+alt+del and see if it will initiate a reboot on its on.
[04:35] <histo> yaboo: well then /etc/init.d/samba should be there its a script to start stop and restart samba so the command would be. sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[04:35] <danielbw>  I installed 10.04 and twice in 48 hours my nic went down and my system froze. I was using 8.10 before but I opted for a clean install on a new partition. lspci reveals this about my nic: 04:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82541GI Gigabit Ethernet. Does anyone here know where I can get more diagnostic info for this?
[04:35] <primetime> nothing...I've even tried alt+sysreq+k and nothing happens
[04:35] <bodom> anybody?
[04:36] <greezmunkey> histo: what ver are you running?
[04:36] <qub> Hello all! my mplayer issued some errors on the terminal when he was playing CDs like this:
[04:36] <yaboo> histo this is my point there is no /etc/init.d/samba file
[04:36] <CaptainTrek> qub: pastebin dont write line by line here
[04:36] <qub> [AO_ALSA] Write error: Broken pipe)  0.1% [AO_ALSA] Trying to reset soundcard
[04:36] <histo> yaboo: what version are you running?
[04:36] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: I would go the wubi way then.... I think you will have to keep your winblows partition for the time being.  do you have a free partition?
[04:36] <primetime> Any idea why 10.04 becomes unresponsive after a couple of days necessitating a reinstall?
[04:36] <hellphyre> jef91: you find it?
[04:36] <yaboo> histo 9.04 upgraded to 10.04
[04:36] <histo> yaboo: so 10.04 thats why
[04:37] <jef91> hellphyre friend is on the system can't access it atm
[04:37] <jef91> :-/
[04:37] <CkhiKuzad> i cant boot up windows, thats one of the key reasons i want to wipe it out.
[04:37] <yaboo> histo: why?
[04:37] <histo> yaboo: let me remember how they changed this hold up
[04:37] <CkhiKuzad> and after i format, dbum, i will.
[04:37] <jef91> When I try to manually mount the share from CLI it tells me cannot find the given hostname/IP
[04:37] <qub> CaptainTrek: oh, thanks for the inform!
[04:37] <histo> yaboo: sudo restart smbd
[04:37] <hellphyre> jef91: ok, can you see your share from windows?
[04:37] <greezmunkey> yaboo: sudo service smbd stop (start, restart)
[04:37] <greezmunkey> yaboo: sudo service smbd stop (start, restart)
[04:37] <greezmunkey> man...
[04:37] <histo> yaboo: they changed thesome of the init scripts in 10.04
[04:37] <jef91> Yep.
[04:37] <histo> yaboo: basically changed the way the system works
[04:38] <histo> yaboo:  but sudo restart smbd      should be sufficient for restarting samba
[04:38] <hellphyre> jef91: and you can access the share?
[04:38] <ezrafree>  /2
[04:38] <jef91> Correct
[04:38] <histo> yaboo: the move the upstart
[04:38] <hellphyre> jef91: ok do this because my windows share doesnt work the way you would think
[04:38] <yaboo> ok that works, now why does my shares not show
[04:38] <hellphyre> jef91: goto places, connect to server
[04:39] <histo> yaboo: are they showing on the local machine? and how did you add the shares?
[04:39] <hellphyre> jef91: service type change to win share
[04:39] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: they won't let you format if your running windows during the installation.....I've never used wubi to install linx before though....I think your best bet would be to find someone with a burner and make an install disc..... probably save you some sanity
[04:39] <yaboo> histo how can i check on my ubuntu box?
[04:39] <hellphyre> jef91: server is the win7 machine name
[04:39]  * edwardthefma is trying to install a full copy of ubuntu note book on to a pen drive
[04:39] <hellphyre> jef91: folder is the name of the shared folder you want to open
[04:39] <CkhiKuzad> i'm pre-insane already, dbum. i think i will google the GRUB modification thing.
[04:40] <jef91> hellphyre any idea where I go to for that in KDE?
[04:40] <Bookman> What is a good terminal based email client that can do imap?
[04:40] <histo> yaboo: places > network
[04:40] <hellphyre> jef91: no idea on that
[04:40] <hellphyre> jef91: =(
[04:40] <yaboo> histo do not use a gui
[04:40] <histo> yaboo: ahh smbtree
[04:40] <qub> I built it myself so I assume I missed some libs ...
[04:40] <dbum> CkhiKuzad: good luck and let the penguin be with you!
[04:40] <bizkit> hey was tehre a recent update to networking packages?
[04:40] <primetime> Any ideas why 10.04 starts freezing after ~2 days of use?
[04:41] <yaboo> histo thanks shares not showing
[04:41] <hellphyre> jef91: does you windows machine have a password set?
[04:41] <CkhiKuzad> may the penguin be with you too dbum, and the penguin has guided me! --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB]
[04:41] <histo> yaboo: how did you creaet the share?
[04:41] <bizkit> because after intalling the latest updates to day my usb wifi has stopped working
[04:41] <jef91> hellphyre yep
[04:41] <CaptainTrek> primetime: no reason it should do that.  perhaps your system is using up resources or something got borked?
[04:41] <yaboo> histo as the ubuntu server doc stated
[04:41] <histo> yaboo: can you pastebin your smb.conf
[04:41] <histo> !paste | yaboo
[04:41] <hellphyre> jef91: you will need some kde help here im afraid
[04:41] <yaboo> histo will do
[04:42] <primetime> I only install vlc and docky/cairo (both end the same as far as freezing).  I've reinstalled Ubuntu 5 times now..same result every time after ~2 days
[04:42] <histo> primetime: what is the problem? random lockups?
[04:42] <qub> Well, I found that even some icon themes can mess the system ...
[04:42] <hellphyre> jef91: i have some links you can try
[04:42] <hellphyre> jef91: if you want
[04:43] <primetime> Histo: random lockups and unresponsive (firefox and nautilus constantly freezing)
[04:43] <jef91> sure hellphyre
[04:43] <histo> primetime: did 9.10 or previous versions have lockups?
[04:43] <qub> for example, haiku icon theme prevent me from login
[04:43] <primetime> New Ubuntu user...nothing to really compare to
[04:44] <histo> primetime: ahh how old is your computer?
[04:44] <jef91> IMHO network shares are one of the biggest issues still with Linux/Ubuntu I can't even get samba shares to see eachother between my Linux systems most times :-/
[04:44] <yaboo> histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429840/
[04:44] <hellphyre> jef91: give me a few
[04:45]  * edwardthefma is trying to install ubuntu on to a pen drive
[04:45] <histo> yaboo: what guide are you following?
[04:45] <primetime> About 3 years....768 mb of ram and amd 64 turion processor
[04:46] <histo> edwardthefma: use the usb creator
[04:46] <yaboo> histo: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html
[04:46] <CkhiKuzad> alright, is there a way to make a floppy image make a USB drive boot?
[04:46] <histo> primetime: usaually random lockups are power related. I've disabled acpi on some boxes that had random freezing and problems went away
[04:46] <hellphyre> jef91: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue
[04:46] <primetime> What is acpi and how do you do that??
[04:47] <histo> primetime: edit the /etc/default/grub file and look for GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" chagne it to "quiet splash acpi=off
[04:47] <histo> "
[04:47] <hellphyre> jef91: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue
[04:47] <histo> primetime: I would also runa  memtest on the box
[04:47] <hellphyre> jef91:  oops
[04:48] <hellphyre> jef91: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/share-ubuntu-home-directories-using-samba/
[04:48] <histo> yaboo: you're missing the security value
[04:49] <histo> yaboo: also I would follow their guide and create a simple share with security = share and their exambple before getting more complex with your global section
[04:49] <yaboo> histo ok
[04:49] <histo> yaboo: then slowly add your settings checking from there. Also are you running a firewall or anything?
[04:49] <hellphyre> jef91: http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS4434907782.html
[04:50] <yaboo> histo yes firewall
[04:50] <histo> yaboo: could be firewall issues as well
[04:50] <yaboo> histo ok
[04:50] <flames> some body can help me......how to install vmware in ubuntu lucid??
[04:51] <flames> plz
[04:51] <yaboo> histo but this is internal, not ecternal
[04:51] <histo> yaboo: software based or hardware?
[04:52] <yaboo> histo software, my ubuntu box is firewall also
[04:52] <danielbw>  I installed 10.04 and twice in 48 hours my nic went down and my system froze. I was using 8.10 before but I opted for a clean install on a new partition. lspci reveals this about my nic: 04:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82541GI Gigabit Ethernet. Does anyone here know where I can get more diagnostic info for this?
[04:52] <danielbw> i had no problems on 8.10
[04:52] <histo> yaboo: yeah I would look at the firewall blocking the samba access first
[04:52] <yaboo> ok
[04:53] <anthony> hi guys
[04:53] <yaboo> but the box should show the shares also
[04:53] <hellphyre> who asked about vmware?
[04:53] <histo> danielbw: that nic should work out of the box
[04:53] <flames> me
[04:53] <hellphyre> flames: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-vmware-tools-on-ubuntu-edgy-eft/
[04:53] <flames> help me to install vmware
[04:53] <primetime> histo: I edited that file, now do I need to recompile grub file?
[04:53] <flames> ok hellphyre thanks
[04:53] <histo> yaboo: I'm not sure how smbtree works but.
[04:53] <danielbw> it does work, but it stops working after 12 - 24 hours
[04:53] <danielbw> while idle
[04:53] <histo> primetime: sudo update-grub2
[04:54] <danielbw> histo, ^^
[04:54] <primetime> histo: then do I restart?
[04:54] <anthony> i need help. can i buckup my install program in my ubuntu 9.10. and if i can how can i do that. pls help me. thanks
[04:54] <bizkit> i love this
[04:54] <histo> primetime: sudo reboot
[04:54] <vn> heya, know of a sound problem with an upgrade from karmic to lynx?
[04:54] <DanDare> anthony, backup all the system installation ?
[04:55] <theadmin> Is something wrong with update manager? I tell it install updates, it hangs.
[04:55] <SandGorgon> anybody have their partitions on lvm ? how is performance ...
[04:55] <anthony> no just the program i what to buckup
[04:55] <histo> anthony: what program?
[04:55] <anthony> any kinds ok program can i do that
[04:55] <histo> primetime: or sudo shutdown -r now
[04:56] <histo> anthony: did you isntall the programs from th repositories?
[04:56] <ubuntitude> hey, guys, i have a weird issue: when i reactivate out of screensaver, the screen will momentarily light up before fading again, and then re-activate, and appear normal, however, the keyboard becomes disabled for whatever application i had pulled up when the screensaver appeared. Any ideas how to remedy this?
[04:56] <anthony> yes i install it already
[04:56] <anthony> can i buckup what i install already
[04:56] <histo> anthony: well if the applications are installed from the repos all will be there when you upgrade
[04:57] <histo> anthony: if you've downloaded debs and source code those won't be.
[04:57] <primetime> histo:  just want to make sure that my comp should be able to run 10.04 right?
[04:57] <DanDare> ubuntitude, not sure but I think you can start disabling any visual effects for a troubleshoot. You think it may be good ?
[04:57] <histo> primetime: possible kind of have to figure otu what the issue is first to make that assumption
[04:57] <theadmin> histo: Uh, they will. Updates don't delete anything. They might break em, though.
[04:57] <anthony> you mean i can't buckup what i install already
[04:57] <ubuntitude> DanDare: I'll try that; now that i think of it, this first started happening when i enabled some stuff in compizconfig.
[04:57] <DanDare> ubuntitude, i had some issues with 1 mouse button not responding... i think it was a compiz problem
[04:58] <Corrine> you can backup the settings
[04:58] <histo> theadmin: anthony well thats what i mean dependencies etc.. might be broken with updates of packages that were installed from source.
[04:58] <theadmin> anthony: You can't back up the apps themselves, yes.
[04:58] <histo> Corrine: settings for what?
[04:58] <Corrine> the apps he wants to back up
[04:58] <histo> Corrine: settings are usually all in /home for user specific stuff.
[04:58] <highonbien> M
[04:58] <Corrine> Um, yes, thats what I'm talking about
[04:58] <histo> Corrine: global settings are in /etc/ most likely thsoe won't be deleted by an upgrade
[04:59] <anthony> ok thank you for the information
[04:59] <anthony> guys
[04:59] <ubuntitude> DanDare: do you know of a terminal command to induce screensaver?
[04:59] <theadmin> ubuntitude: For GNOME, it is "gnome-screensaver-command"
[04:59] <ubuntitude> theadmin: alright, thanks :)
[04:59] <DanDare> ubuntitude, I dont know :( set it for a small ammount of time like 1 minute
[04:59] <danielbw> histo, why would e1000 suddenly stop working?  This only happened in the past 2 days since I installed 10.04.  I want to know how I can diagnose this. When I look at ifconfig there are no errors on the device
[05:00] <danielbw> and shouldnt watchdog reload driver?
[05:00] <danielbw> if it fails?
[05:00] <primetime> histo:  well i've made the changes and rebooted so now I'll just have to play with it for a while and see if it has any problems
[05:01] <DanDare> OpenGL Xscreensavers owns any windows native screensaver ever made :p
[05:01] <histo> danielbw: no idea
[05:01] <anthony> guys how can i play 3gp video?
[05:01] <theadmin> DanDare: true :D
[05:01] <theadmin> anthony: Try with VLC
[05:01] <ubuntitude> theadmin: so what would be the actual command for activating screensaver? would it be gnome-screensaver-on or something?
[05:01] <histo> primetime: yeap
[05:01] <Bookman> what is the lightest email client with imap?
[05:01] <greezmunkey> yaboo: you could try adding: browseable = yes in the [jsirucka] section, then restart smbd - but you need to make sure that you have a user created: sudo smbpasswd -a {username}
[05:01] <theadmin> ubuntitude: no no, it's exactly like that, "gnome-screensaver-command".
[05:01] <carl_> how do i fix this  E: Type 'n' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nilarimogard-webupd8-lucid.list
[05:02] <yaboo> greezmunkey: thanks
[05:02] <ubuntitude> theadmin: it gave me Message: Failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[05:02] <anthony> it tell me some error about the audio
[05:02] <ubuntitude> theadmin: when i typed in gnome-screensaver-command
[05:02] <theadmin> ubuntitude: Uh. Something's just broken then. It works here.
[05:02] <DanDare> anthony, video cames from cellphone ?
[05:02] <ubuntitude> theadmin: strange, strange, strange...
[05:03] <primetime> thanks for the help everybody.  :D
[05:03] <anthony> yes
[05:03] <DanDare> anthony, so it's probably using the very proprietary audio format AMR
[05:04] <winXPuser> In Windows, all networking is done by wizards. Setting a home LAN manually ended with a day of struggle without any success. At the end, we hit the 'do it automatically' button, and it started working. Very uncomfortable. How is networking done in Ubuntu?
[05:04] <DanDare> question should be, what the nice Ubuntu media player that will handle video formats and audio formats like AMR ?
[05:04] <DanDare> anthony, tried VLC ?
[05:04] <theadmin> winXPuser: Well, usually authomatic. You can configure it manually.
[05:05] <yaboo> histo: I have not changed my firewall for like 6 mths, how can this affect samba now
[05:05] <carl_> how do i fix this  E: Type 'n' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nilarimogard-webupd8-lucid.list
[05:05] <skybinary> good morning
[05:05] <skybinary> ;)
[05:05] <theadmin> carl_: Something's wrong with this repo... I'd delete that list: "sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nilarimogard-webupd8-lucid.list && sudo apt-get update"
[05:06] <carl_> thx
[05:06] <anthony> yes i already try vlc but it tell me about audio problem
[05:06] <DanDare> carl_ I think it's easy to discover if you paste the archive using http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[05:06] <DanDare> anthony, what error says ?
[05:07] <skybinary> i have just installed lucid ubuntu 10.04 and browsed to youtube in firefox, there are 3 options for flash adobe,swfdec and gnash, what do i choose?
[05:07] <theadmin> DanDare: VLC errors are usually all the same. "VLC does not support this media format. There is nothing you can do about it."
[05:07] <theadmin> skybinary: Adobe one is the official one so go with it
[05:07] <anthony> theres no compatible audio file for this format
[05:07] <DanDare> anthony, this is old post but sounds like your problem http://jguk.org/2008/04/ubuntu-amr-playback-fix.html
[05:07] <kevr`away> I'll be back later.
[05:07] <skybinary> done
[05:08] <kevr> Back.
[05:08] <DanDare> ok anthony, so Ubuntu wont install AMR codecs for you
[05:08] <zetheroo> how do you know if journaling is on or off?
[05:08] <winXPuser> theadmin, where can I read about it?
[05:08] <DanDare> i hate AMR
[05:08] <theadmin> winXPuser: The NM webpage: http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/
[05:08] <anthony> yes may be. whats the meaning of amr codec again
[05:08] <winXPuser> ok
[05:09] <greezmunkey> coder decoder
[05:09] <jongbergs> anthony: does sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras work?
[05:09] <DanDare> anthony, the best alternative for you is to transcoding the audio part to another format.. or even the hole stuff using ffmpeg or such
[05:10] <anthony> yes i already install it
[05:10] <theadmin> jongbergs: If VLC does not eat it, it ain't gonna work with restricted extras stuff, sorry :D
[05:10] <anthony> ok thanks
[05:10] <theadmin> what on earth is "libsoup" o-O
[05:10] <DanDare> amr is one of the most proprietary formats :p
[05:11] <coondog> how do I get 32 bit emul support for binaries?
[05:11] <DanDare> "libsoup is an HTTP client/server library for GNOME"
[05:11] <theadmin> DanDare: Ah I see, thanks :D
[05:11] <DanDare> well, internet says like this at least
[05:11] <jongbergs> theadmin: actually, i got AMR working in totem but vlc can't
[05:12] <theadmin> jongbergs: o-o
[05:12] <theadmin> Somethings wrong with update manager again. It says that I last checkedzit 8 days ago, while i JUST pressed the "check" button
[05:12] <DanDare> guys arent very imaginative at the time to name their packages
[05:12] <tp43> is there a way to make firefox always fit the page to width, because it default too small most of the times, and I always end up either squinting or zooming in, so I would like it to be zoomed in by default
[05:12] <theadmin> Oh well, gotta go...
[05:13] <CyberaX2195> anyone around with knowledge of how to disable cpan ?
[05:13] <CyberaX2195> ie i don't want people to be able to install / upgrade packages via it PERIOD
[05:13] <gottto> tp43: it has an option to set the minimum font size in edit-preferences
[05:14] <tp43> gottto, thanks, but I could find zoom options
[05:14] <tp43> gottto, sorry I mean I couldn't find
[05:14] <Gartral> ok, im trying to archive my dvds.. i have a HTPC that i set up with medibuntu, installed libdecss, and i still cant play (or "copy" for that matter).. anyone got any advice? ide be happy with just being able to watch my movies without M$ gouging my pockets
[05:15] <IdleOne> !dvd
[05:16] <Gartral> nevermind.. for some reason a reboot fixed it
[05:16] <fluid> is there a default password for the account used on the livecd ?
[05:16] <IdleOne> fluid leave it blank
[05:16] <fluid> trying to connect to it remotely
[05:16] <Gartral> IdleOne: i did all that.. but needed a reboot for god knows whatever reason
[05:16] <fluid> so its blank? i can set one
[05:16] <Gartral> fluid: its a blanks (AKA null) password
[05:17] <Gartral> fluid: if you *really* want to.. yes
[05:17] <IdleOne> fluid: it's a live cd, when you reboot the password won't be there any longer
[05:17] <IdleOne> fluid: sorry I meant blank as ther isn't any password
[05:17] <fluid> long story...trying to copy an ntfs drive on a dead machine over the network using openssh-server. lol
[05:18] <Gartral> fluid: AHHAH. theres an argument you can set in the SSH configs too allow a no-pass authentication
[05:18] <fluid> ah well im in anyway so it doesnt matter.   My headless 8.04 system seems to have lost network connectivity, it can pull dhcp, but cannot talk to my network.   Can anyone point me to how one replaces the tcp stack in linux?  I have booted the system with cd, and hardware works fine
[05:20] <Gartral> oddbio set grub's config timeout to read 0
[05:21] <oddbio> Gartral: alright thanks
[05:21] <chet> hey, i cant adjust my laptop brightness with the nvidia driver installed, it works fine with nouveau. is that just nvidia being nvidia or something i can fix?
[05:21] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: what makes you think it's tha stack?
[05:22] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: well I put a static dhcp entry in my router and it pulled the correct (and changed) address, however it cannot see the network at all.  No pings, no nmap, no file shares, etc...
[05:23] <Gartral> chet you want the long story or the short story? ;P
[05:23] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: what does ifconfig, and ip route say?
[05:23] <chet> long
[05:23] <anthony> hi guys do i need to install a anti-virus on my ubuntu 9.10 and if i have to what kind of anti-virus do i have to install on my system
[05:23] <chet> its mroe fun
[05:24] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: all what you would expect // I cleared the route table first
[05:24] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: headless, does that include a firewall iptables that is?
[05:24] <sebsebseb> !virus | chet
[05:25] <winXPuser> :)
[05:25] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: no, it is my nas.. and has been sitting untouched for over a year
[05:25] <sebsebseb> no not chet
[05:25] <chet> ??
[05:25] <sebsebseb> anthony yes
[05:25] <sebsebseb> chet: wrong person
[05:25] <chet> ah ok
[05:25] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: then all of a sudden "its gone"
[05:25] <anthony> what kind of anti-virus do i need
[05:25] <sebsebseb> !virus | anthony
[05:25] <chet> gartral: either one works, whichever seems more helpful
[05:25] <joot> anthony: you don't
[05:26] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: do you control the network it's on?
[05:26] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: yes it is my home network
[05:27] <Gartral> chet: OK.. long story is NVIDIA wants OEMs to handle nonstandard driver ops (like brightness controlls and auto-light compensation).. and that leaves linux users in the dust because OEMs never "get around" too making the linux drivers.. theres a toolkit for brightness settings, and unfortuently, i cant think of it right now
[05:27] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: have you tried tcpdump to see what the NIC is doing?
[05:27] <Fudge> anyone here using a quadcore cpu?
[05:27] <MrPancake> Fudge: Yes.
[05:27] <Gartral> Fudge: i7 860 here
[05:27] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: ha funny, I am a preacher of wireshark, but have not attempted it -- hah let me go check that
[05:28] <Fudge> what are your load averages?
[05:28] <chet> fudge: i7 965
[05:28] <mac5> hi
[05:28] <kevr> Back
[05:28] <IdleOne> Fudge: 4.08, 4.24, 4.36
[05:28] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: you said headless, so I assumed no GUI
[05:28] <GodricBrutus> Can anybody help me get 'pulseaudio' working? it seems that whenever i select it for an application to use, that application has no sound. also, 'system>preferences>default soundcard' doesn't work. i click it, it says that it's starting, but it just never comes up. i have no sound icon on my top right toolbar, but my sound is working, because i can play music with 'mpd' and movies with vlc
[05:28] <Fudge> mines 2.8 and hardly doing anything, so thats ok for a quad is it?
[05:28] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: yeah sorry just normally no monitor
[05:28] <Gartral> 0.03-5.66 depending... i pushed it to 8.something one day doing ALOT
[05:28] <chet> gartral: damn. thanks for the answer though.
[05:28] <Fudge> i thought 2.9 would be like 28%
[05:29] <MrKeuner> hi all, is there a way to change the sleep behaviour in gnome?
[05:29] <chet> i hover around 1-5% tops
[05:29] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: sounds like you've got it now, good luck!
[05:29] <CyberaX2195> done it through apparmor :)
[05:29] <MrKeuner> I think mine is set to hibernate instead of suspend
[05:29] <Gartral> chet: what specific laptop
[05:29] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: thanks, I will probably get it from here, but can you point me in the direction (reading is fine) of replacing the network driver/stack/etc
[05:30] <chet> samsung x460-44g
[05:30] <chet> i googled extensively and found others with the same problem but without any solution
[05:30] <archnagle> hey folks, I'm having crazy problems with Thunderbird since upgrading to 10.04.  it crashes for an existing user (Segmentation fault on launch), but for a user which had not thunderbird config before, I was able to set it up fine.  for the existing user, I blew away the .mozilla-thunderbird link and .thunderbird directory, but still crashes
[05:30] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: Ihaven't given that much thought, I'd have to read up on it myself, sorry.
[05:30] <BiggFREE> Hi
[05:30] <hevnsnt> greezmunkey: cool -- thanks anyways
[05:31] <chet> gartral: samsung x460-44g; googled extensively and found others with the same issue but no one had a solution. bios brightness control is set to user control (aka os control)
[05:31] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: it really can't be that difficult though. Never even considered doing that :)
[05:32] <Gartral> chet at this point, not much is known about the i2c set in those machines.. your on your own, you could go and start writing a driver.. an easy start to that would be getting a hardware trace
[05:32] <GodricBrutus> Can anybody help me get 'pulseaudio' working? it seems that whenever i select it for an application to use, that application has no sound. also, 'system>preferences>default soundcard' doesn't work. i click it, it says that it's starting, but it just never comes up. i have no sound icon on my top right toolbar, but my sound is working, because i can play music with 'mpd' and movies with vlc
[05:32] <GodricBrutus> . i have a Realtek alc889A
[05:33] <Fudge> guys are these loads acceptable for an intel p4 q6600 2.4ghz then?
[05:33] <Fudge>  14:33:37 up  2:39,  3 users,  load average: 2.17, 2.28, 2.23
[05:33] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: can you ping your loopback address? <IP_ADDRESS>?
[05:33] <FFForever> Any web developers in here?
[05:34] <Gartral> GodricBrutus: um.. go get ALSA...
[05:34] <GodricBrutus> FFForever, designer, with a tiny dash of dev
[05:34] <GodricBrutus> Gartral, what do you mean?
[05:34] <chet> gartral: thanks for the help
[05:34] <undecim> FFForever newbie web dev/designer here
[05:34] <archnagle> Fudge: as long as load isn't spiking very high, it's usually fine, but you may want to keep an eye on cpu / mem usage
[05:34] <undecim> FFForever: What do you need?
[05:34] <FFForever> GodricBrutus, I meant designer*, do you notice black lines in firefox when using localhost?
[05:34] <ouyes> i to set the xchat make it register when connect to a server ?
[05:35] <GodricBrutus> FFForever, no
[05:35] <FFForever> If I use localhost some images have black borders around them but magically vanish when I upload them to a domain =\
[05:35] <GodricBrutus> FFForever, pngs?
[05:35] <Gartral> GodricBrutus: Pulseaudio fails in many situations, ive stopped using it, switching in favor of alsa and jack. pulse has promise, but isnt ready for the lime light yet
[05:36] <FFForever> nope
[05:36] <Fudge> archnagle  it doesnt usually go over 2 unless im doing a lot of stuff but other users using the same spin of ubuntu report loads very low
[05:36] <FFForever> GodricBrutus, this happens to be a gif
[05:36] <joot> GodricBrutus: I use the script here with good effect   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6589810
[05:36] <Fudge> archnagle  i did notice before i rebooted my swap was mostly being used but i didnt know how to clear it
[05:36] <FFForever> there is a black border next to it, but if I upload it to my vps and run it there is no black line =\
[05:36] <undecim> FFForever: Maybe add a "border: 0" to the style?
[05:37] <GodricBrutus> Gartral, i see. but i think i ned it to get sound on my virtualbox guest os, and to play sound on multiple apps simultaneously
[05:37] <EntityReborn> How can I force flushing data to a usb drive?
[05:37] <FFForever> undecim, I have * border: none;
[05:37] <xeer0> Does totem support multiprocessor decoding?
[05:37] <greezmunkey> hevnsnt: Still here?
[05:37] <archnagle> Fudge: to free up swap, stop any large processes, then swapoff -a and then swapon -a which basically forces everything in swap back to main memory (assuming there's room) and then re-enables swap
[05:38] <GodricBrutus> joot, i did too. it got my sound working, but now my sound icon is gone, and 'select default soudn card' doesnt work
[05:38] <greezmunkey> archnagle: what if there's not enough room?
[05:38] <archnagle> Fudge: if swap is filling up though, that's a problem and you need to add RAM
[05:38] <undecim> FFForever: Does the border change the position of the actual image, as far as you can tell? (i.e. shifts it by a pixel because of the border)
[05:38] <GodricBrutus> FFForever, hmm, i have no idea then
[05:38] <ouyes> where can i find a channel related to password?
[05:38] <FFForever> =\
[05:38] <unsure> ouyes, to what password?
[05:38] <Fudge> archnagle  i have 4gig of ram and only a small portion of it was being used whilst the 6gig of swap was nearly full
[05:38] <Gartral> Fudge: or.. if you have the spare 300 USD you could buy a SSD and use it for swap
[05:38] <archnagle> greezmunkey / Fudge, not sure what happens if your swapoff without enough memory, kernel may start killing processes with out-of-memory errors
[05:39] <greezmunkey> archnagle: it'd be an interesting experiment
[05:39] <archnagle> Fudge: swapoff / swapon can push stuff back into main memory, but it may not be an issue
[05:39] <ouyes> unsure, i want to make a password list for brute force attack
[05:39] <joot> GodricBrutus: O I see. you can probably get an Icon from your start bar menu but I dunno about the soundcard options
[05:39] <TheMidnightCoder> If I have a 64 bit intel proc, will the 64bit version of ubuntu work, even though it has "AMD" in the filrname?
[05:39] <unsure> ouyes, what is it?
[05:39] <ouyes> unsure, so i want to find a channel like that
[05:39] <scunizi_> TheMidnightCoder: yes
[05:40] <DanDare> interesting
[05:40] <archnagle> greezmunkey: yeah, heh, except usually I see high swap on production servers where letting the kernel murder my poor innocent applicatiosn would be Bad (tm)
[05:40] <ouyes> unsure, you know aes, wep wpa? and so on ,
[05:40] <unsure> ouyes, no no idea what it is
[05:40] <undecim> TheMidnightCoder: Yes
[05:40] <DanDare> #ubuntu is the most popular channel in freenode (with 1545 users right now), followed by #Debian with 906 users atm
[05:40] <unsure> yes
[05:41] <ouyes> unsure, anything just password
[05:41] <greezmunkey> archnagle: I have a low mem Ubox here booting it now, I want to see if it crashes...
[05:41] <archnagle> greezmunkey: let me know what happens ;)  5$ says kernel murders processes at random
[05:41] <greezmunkey> archnagle: I have a paypal account ;)
[05:42] <archnagle> but it probably just does something lame like "oh can't swapoff, not enough memory" :P
[05:42] <Gartral> DanDare: how many indevidual users? (counting duplicate/similar names)
[05:42] <greezmunkey> archnagle: logging into it now...
[05:42] <Sorcererb0b> I have a ubuntu laptop and a windows desktop. The windows desktop has a set of speakers hooked up to it. I want my Ubuntu laptop to be able to stream audio (for music and movies) to those speakers through the network. Is this possible?
[05:42] <Fudge> hmm, moved it to ram and now back it seems. maybe its the 1zombie process but i dont nknow how to identify it
[05:42] <K-Rich> did they take away the window-shade option (with mouse wheen) in lucid? if not how do i activate it?
[05:42] <Gartral> scorpio1497: JACK
[05:43] <greezmunkey> archnagle: the test box is just plain jane 10.04 with no toys installed.
[05:43] <scunizi_> Sorcererb0b: yep.. check / search synaptic for audio server or streamer
[05:43] <Sorcererb0b> cheers
[05:43] <Gartral> Sorcererb0b: JACK
[05:44] <DanDare> Gartral, i dont know
[05:44] <K-Rich> wnyone know have i can turn on window sharing in lucid?
[05:44] <ouyes> is there a channel for security
[05:45] <greezmunkey> archnagle: issuing sudo swapoff -a, top shows 6.8MB MEM free, 27MB in swap...
[05:45] <kevr`away> BBL
[05:45] <scunizi_> K-Rich: samba.. try right mouse clicking a folder in lucid and choose share.. it will load what you need automatically
[05:45] <archnagle> greezmunkey: *drum roll*
[05:46] <greezmunkey> archnagle: holy manhole covers Batman, they went into the sewers...It's still running, 0 swap !!
[05:46] <K-Rich> Scunizi, sorry i worded that way wrong.... window shading, used to be under system > preferences > windows i thing, so i can use the wheen to shade the window to it's title bar
[05:47] <archnagle> greezmunkey: nicely done
[05:47] <K-Rich> wheel
[05:47] <archnagle> what's in dmesg?
[05:47] <archnagle> (if it will show anything)
[05:48] <scunizi_> K-Rich: not sure in lucid.. I remember it in the same place you mentioned
[05:48] <greezmunkey> archnagle: me?
[05:48] <K-Rich> Scunizi, one of thos
[05:48] <emghazal> How do I remove the Evolution icon from the notification area? I even uninstalled Evolution and it's still there.
[05:48] <K-Rich> e "wife just walk in room" saftey features hehehe
[05:48] <archnagle> greezmunkey: yeah, from your swapoff there, out of memory errors or anything?
[05:49] <FFForever> Why do these render different in firefox one is localhost http://imgur.com/DzfmQ.png the black line is gone when upload to the domain http://imgur.com/kX9gO.png
[05:49] <greezmunkey> archnagle: it's taking a looooong time to load Nautilus :)
[05:49] <yaboo> dies ufw deny everything incoming till you allow it?
[05:49] <greezmunkey> archnagle: but it did it
[05:50] <K-Rich> Scunizi, i've even tried changing /apps/gwd/mouse_wheel_action to shade
[05:50] <Fudge> can i show you the memory line from top without the rest archnagle ?
[05:50] <Fudge> or more to the oint how can I do that
[05:50] <xeer0> On my 9.10 server compiz for some reason hinders xvideo scaling. WIth compiz off I can play video fullscreen without CPU load, but WITH compiz the CPU hits the roof and the video is 1 FPS. Anyone know what's wrong? Is Ati drivers incompatible with Compiz?

[05:54] <emghazal> How do I remove the Evolution icon from the notification area? I even uninstalled Evolution and it's still there. I tried right-click -> remove from panel, but it removed the whole "Indicator Applet". Any ideas?
[05:55] <scunizi_> emghazal: remove evolution-data-server perhaps
[05:56] <archnagle> sorry, Fudge, I'm not sure what you're missing.  can you copy and paste the first handful of lines from "top -n1" or pipe it to head like top -n 1 | head -n 5
[05:56] <Fudge> ill try archnagle
[05:58] <kwtm2> Hi.  I have Kubuntu 8.04 installed.  What's the easiest way to upgrade to 10.04 if I can't burn a CD?  Will "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" consider 8.04 a LTS version and jump directly to 10.04?
[05:59] <raviepic3> help | where i can get the official sources list for my ubuntu 9.04 ?
[05:59] <xangua> kwtm2: yes
[06:00] <Doncho> Wow
[06:00] <archnagle> kwtm2: you can mount the "alternate" iso with mount -o loop and install from that (see upgrade doc)
[06:00] <Doncho> http://www.iLoveStuffForFree.com/
[06:00] <Doncho> sorry
[06:00] <raviepic3> help | where i can get the official sources list for my ubuntu 9.04 ?
[06:01]  * Gnea shoots Doncho
[06:01] <kwtm2> archnagle: I do not have the iso.  Do I really need to download it before I install?  I can't upgrade?
[06:01] <dotblank> raviepic3, did you delete them?
[06:01] <archnagle> !upgrade | kwtm2
[06:02] <starnostar> my ram usage just dropped to 1gb of ram, normally 1.8gb, everything seems to be working fine, did lucid impliment a new memory managment system?
[06:02] <archnagle> kwtm2: you can use the "upgrade for servers' instructions
[06:02] <emghazal> I removed evolution-data-server and restarted the computer. Evolution icon still there.
[06:03] <raviepic3> dotblank, when i do a apt-get update i get this http://pastebin.com/wppq3X50
[06:03] <raviepic3> so i thought i need to change the sources list
[06:03] <greezmunkey> archnagle: It looks like the system automatically "niced" a lot of the running processes, and I noticed the "cached" readout increase significantly. Reading the top manpage about it now...
[06:04] <raviepic3> dotblank, ?
[06:04] <karma_police> i have 10.04 installed on a flash drive via pendrive lunux with persisent.. whenever i update and reboot it gives me error... something about filesystem cannot be mounted
[06:04] <krazykrivda> Who is familiar with wubi?
[06:05] <archnagle> ok, this thunderbird problem is driving me nuts.  for user without any config, it starts up fine.  existing user, it creates a symlink called .mozilla-thunderbird, points it to .thunderbird, and then dies (if I just rm -Rf the existing .thunderbird ).  what the heck?
[06:05] <kevr> Back
[06:05] <karma_police> why would upgrades break ubuntu?
[06:06] <unsure> they should not
[06:06] <scunizi_> archnagle: should work
[06:06] <karma_police> i'm afraid to run update:( have tried it twice and have been rendered unusable
[06:07] <ezrafree> since i've upgraded to lucid lynx, my ntfs-3g external hd is no longer able to be mounted... any ideas?
[06:07] <karma_police> did u install ntfs-config?
[06:07] <archnagle> karma_police: there's always the old-school / Windows way, wipe the OS and install fresh keeping the data
[06:07] <dotblank> raviepic3, have you tried changing mirrors?
[06:07] <starnostar> I allways reinatall when a new version comes out, call it force of habit
[06:07] <raviepic3> dotblank,  nope
[06:07] <raviepic3> am new to ubuntu
[06:08] <raviepic3> how do i change it ? and to what should i change them ?
[06:08] <ezrafree> karma_police: hmm let me take a look if i have it still... drive was working before the upgrade but perhaps it got uninstalled or something...
[06:08] <karma_police> i did that.. i am using pendrive with persistent.. whnever i do the updates and it updates grub and the linux kernal it breaks something
[06:08] <kwtm2> archnagle: Thanks for the info, which I already knew how to find.  What I need to know is: if I have Kubuntu 8.04, which is officially not a LTS version, how do I know whether apt-get dist-upgrade will consider it a LTS version?  Is there some "check-if-this-is-LTS" command?
[06:08] <chet> gartral: i figured out how to fix it, should i post the fix somewhere so other people can know how to fix it?
[06:08] <dotblank> you can select it in software sources under System->Administration
[06:08] <George_e> I am having some problems with Apache... I get "You don't have permission to access xxx on this server."
[06:08] <yaboo> histo: don't think my firewall is my samba issue
[06:08] <dotblank> depends on where you live
[06:08] <ezrafree> karma_police: yes according to dpkg -l, i have ntfs-config
[06:08] <xcl> I have the same problem
[06:09] <archnagle> oh, sorry kwtm2.  yes, it should just think it's an LTS
[06:09] <Chazz> Anyone know of a music player w/ both an equalizer, AND visualizations?
[06:09] <Gartral> chet YES
[06:09] <greezmunkey> Heh, there's always something cool to find: type "w" in a terminal ;)
[06:10] <chet> gartral: do you happen to know where? sorry im new to ubuntu
[06:10] <karma_police> this is what i had to do for my ntfs mount.. worked for me: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[06:11] <ezrafree> thanks karma_police
[06:11] <karma_police> np
[06:11] <Sereph> how should I go about moving my ubuntu 10.04 from one hard disk to another?
[06:11] <kwtm2> archnagle: Okay, I just want to make sure (sorry if I'm repeating the question): even though Kubuntu 8.04 is not officially LTS, the underlying 8.04 Ubuntu *is* LTS, and this is sufficient for "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to make the jump to the next higher LTS version rather than the next immediate higher version, am I correct?
[06:12] <ezrafree> ahh it seems i needed to reinstall ntfs-config
[06:13] <karma_police> i'm gonna try to do my updates again.. may skip the grub update.. i think since i am running a live usb with persistent it is being messed up with grub update
[06:14] <Gartral> up on the ubuntu forums
[06:15] <archnagle> kwtm2: I haven't tested it, so ymmv
[06:15] <archnagle> it can't hurt to try
[06:15] <archnagle> well
[06:15] <archnagle> other than the usual upgrade pains
[06:15] <karma_police> whats everyones thoughts on linux mint?

[06:17] <Gnea> oh yeah
[06:17] <Gnea> !mintsupport
[06:17] <Gnea> there ya go
[06:18] <mossi> Anyone here?
[06:18] <karma_police> was not looking for support.. just wanted to know what ppl thought about it since it is based on ubuntu/debian
[06:19] <mossi> I could really need some help
[06:19] <Gnea> mossi: feel free to give as much detail to your problem as possible, it makes it possible for people to help you
[06:19] <sam555> hello all!
[06:20] <sam555> anyone know where to get drivers (assuming that's my problem) for my wireless nic?  I just upgraded to 10.04 after using the beta and now I can't get on wifi networks :(
[06:20] <mossi> The network applet on my main install disappeared so i can't figure out to connect to the Internet
[06:21] <Gnea> mossi: right-click on the top panel, go to "add to panel" and select the network manager
[06:21] <xangua> mossi: do you removed indicator applet'
[06:21] <chet> where do i go to report a fix for a bug?
[06:21] <xangua> ooh didn't read, network manager..... sorry mossi, Gneai don't delieve is there
[06:22] <mossi> I didn't remove the indicator applet or notification area
[06:22] <xangua> mossi: : did you remove notification area¿
[06:22] <Gnea> !bug | chet
[06:22] <xangua> mossi: then launch: nm-applet
[06:22] <mossi> Through the terminal?
[06:23] <xangua> mossi: or launcher, whathever you like
[06:23] <karma_police_> Help! E: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 E: linux-image-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured E: linux-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[06:23] <Gnea> xangua, mossi: if it's not implicitly there, then he should be able to add one manually
[06:23] <xangua> i suppose better from terminal to see if it says a  message
[06:23] <chet> should i be reporting this as an ubuntu bug? its nvidia brightness related
[06:23] <chet> im not sure if its ubuntu or nvidia's issue
[06:24] <karma_police_> anyone else getting crash after kernal update?
[06:24] <Gnea> chet: nvidia? the standard nv module or nvidia module?
[06:24] <mossi> I will give that a try brb
[06:24] <ScoobySnack> yikes
[06:24] <chet> the proprietary drivers, not any specific app from what i can tell
[06:24] <chet> just involved a xorg.conf edit
[06:25] <Gnea> chet: have you tried nvidia-settings?
[06:25] <Gnea> hrm
[06:25] <chet> nvidia settings brightness doesnt actually do brightness
[06:25] <chet> it just messes with colors
[06:25] <Gnea> why would you need to edit xorg.conf? installing the nvidia drivers from the hardware menu should get it all setup for you
[06:25] <chet> you're misunderstanding
[06:25] <Gnea> perhaps
[06:25] <Semitones> what's the channel for enquiring about the irc bots?
[06:25] <raviepic3> dotblank, which tab and option in system->admin ?
[06:26] <Gnea> Semitones: #ubuntu-bots
[06:26] <Semitones> ty
[06:26] <karma_police_> when i run update manager it does grub update.. Configuring Grub-PC Linux command line is blank.. should i type something in there before clicking forward?
[06:26] <Gnea> chet: it almost sounds like you installed the nvidia driver from nvidia.com itself, but yeah, maybe I misunderstood
[06:27] <chet> my specific laptop, the samsung x460-44g has some issues with brightness controls. the brightness applet doesnt work, xgamma DOES work, but it just washes out colors and doesnt touch the backlight. nvidia settings does the same as xgamma. power management display brightness had no effect. after editing xorg.conf the power management slider works.
[06:27] <chet> youd be correct in that assumption
[06:27] <dotblank> raviepic3, first
[06:27] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«?
[06:27] <chet> i did try once with a fresh stall of lucid with their drivers from their website
[06:27] <chet> and i also tried once with another fresh install of drivers from hardware drivers
[06:27] <raviepic3> dotblank, you mean sys->admin->software sources -> first tab ?
[06:28] <chet> both had the exact same issues, and were solved the same way
[06:28] <Gnea> chet: just wondering why you used the nvidia.com drivers and not the drivers that ubuntu packages up to work correctly?
[06:28] <Gnea> I see
[06:28] <dotblank> raviepic3, yes
[06:28] <chet> i was using the ones from the packages first, but to try to resolve the problem i tried the nvidia updated ones that arent in the repository yet
[06:28] <chet> i tried both just for bug testing sake
[06:29] <quiescens> needs a way to display battery % on the bar without having to mouse over it all the time
[06:29] <karma_police_> this is becoming to fragile for me
[06:29] <Gnea> chet: awesome. so the laptop doesn't have any function key combos to change the brightness?
[06:30] <raviepic3> i have changed the source from my country to main course
[06:30] <xeer0> In a laucher for gnome-terminal I have made it connect it to a server via ssh. After it has connected I'd like it to add 'screen -r'. I put this as " -x 'screen -r' in the launcher. It didnt work ... how do I do it?
[06:30] <chet> it does, they just dont work
[06:30] <Gnea> ugh
[06:30] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[06:30] <chet> yeah, i know. quite a mess.
[06:30] <chet> its annoying too because the volume function keys work
[06:30] <chet> all of the others work
[06:30] <chet> just brightness doesnt
[06:30] <silv3r_m00n> can I resize an extended partition to include some free space to the left of it ?
[06:30] <chet> hence using power management to fix it
[06:30] <karma_police_> i sometimes realize why linux is free
[06:30] <yaboo> think samba on 10.04 is bjorked
[06:31] <karma_police_> E: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 E: linux-image-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured E: linux-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[06:31] <Gnea> chet: that's rather interesting. how well does the power management fix actually work, though?
[06:31] <Gartral> how does one decipher the boogers smeared accros the bottom of the HDD benchmark test in 10.04's disk util?
[06:31] <Gnea> chet: and what happens if you plug in an external monitor?
[06:31] <xeer0> How do I make a launcher for gnome-terminal output a command after it has connected via ssh to a server?
[06:32] <karma_police_> seems like the monetary savings you get are all used up and traded for the amount of time you spend trying to fix all the bugs
[06:32] <chet> gnea: power management works quite well, although it only adjusts the brightness every 7-15%
[06:32] <chet> i have no complaints about the power management fix
[06:32] <chet> its far better than 100% backlight
[06:32] <xangua> karma_police_: free as in freedom, not as in free beer; that attitude is only going to make no one want to help you
[06:32] <chet> i quit 9.10 because it hurt my eyes too much
[06:32] <xangua> !attitude > karma_police_
[06:33] <chet> gnea: i haven't tried an external monitor, good question. i'll try it tomorrow i think.
[06:33] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: The tool that you should use, is GParted. You can reach your goal in 2 steps. 1.) Enlarge your partition to the right. 2.) Shrink your partition from the left.
[06:33] <karma_police_> i'm sorry.. i'm just tired and frustrated is all.. i know a lot of this is from me being a noob.. just gets old is all
[06:33] <xeer0> karma_police_: You are correct. On the other hand, I've used WIndows for 7 years, yet in the couple of months with linux I realized how little I know about computers. I think the learnings is fun too ... but I understand that many doesn't, and until Linux is as much install-and-forget as windows or mac osx, it'll have a marginal market share
[06:33] <Gnea> chet: that might help narrow the problem down a bit more. it might just be that there's a new routine for samsung's hardware that nvidia needs to address
[06:34] <silv3r_m00n> bullgard4: so its possible ?
[06:34] <silv3r_m00n> and is it fine for the health of the hard disk to resize partitions
[06:34] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: Yes.
[06:34] <chet> gnea: well, this laptop was released in the end of 08, i would think they would have addressed it by now. unless theyre completely unaware, and if thats the case they wont listen to one person.
[06:35] <xeer0> karma_police_: Sorry for an incomprehensible sentence ... Im tired after staying up the entire night fixing my ubuntu server :P
[06:35] <mannyv> karma_police_, after spending the last 5 hours trying to get lucid server to boot I can TOTALLY relate to you
[06:35] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: First, of course, you should make a backup of your partition. Just in case you are making an errorneous operation.
[06:35] <skyl> "+yI upgraded to 10.04 and my vim config doesn't work like it used to
[06:35] <skyl> vnoremap y "+y
[06:35] <silv3r_m00n> bullgard4: right now its 114 * 3 + 121  .....and I want to make it 63 + 100*4 , so it will need lot of resizing
[06:35] <greezmunkey> What can I use in a bash script that generates a carriage return?
[06:35] <karma_police_> i don't think i will ever give linux up.. it really is taking huge steps forward. i feel like i need to relearn how to use a computer tho.. lol
[06:35] <skyl> did yank to a buffer that I could paste out of
[06:36] <karma_police_> your way ahead of me if you are using server tho.. no gui right?
[06:36] <silv3r_m00n> bullgard4: I don't have other place to backup my data , I will be backing it up across partitions only
[06:36] <skyl> but not it doesn't work, any luck that someone knows what's going on?
[06:36] <SandGorgon> silv3r_m00n, consider having lvm partitions rather than simple partitions - all resize, etc. stuff will be easy later on http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/306352-weekend-project-migrate-from-direct-partitions-to-lvm-volumes
[06:36] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: These large operation will take much time.
[06:36] <xeer0> karma_police_: My feeling exactly! I feel exactly as noobish as I did when I first started with computers 6-7 years ago, with Windows
[06:36] <mannyv> i use server on my server and desktop on my err... laptop
[06:36] <SandGorgon> xeer0, are we lucid bashing ? I want in..
[06:37] <Gartral> karma_police_: server COULD have a gui setup.. but i never figured out a reason for it other than (i HATE this term) "Easy access"
[06:37] <xeer0> SandGorgon: lol
[06:37] <silv3r_m00n> bullgard4: how much time will it take to resize partitions ?
[06:37] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: A bad idea: to back up across partitions only.
[06:37] <chet> i <3 lucid 10000x more than karmic solely because my eyes aren't bleeding anymore
[06:37] <SandGorgon> xeer0, I have one word for you... and one word only - Plymouth
[06:37] <chet> gnea: do you suppose the brightness controls are bound incorrect or something?
[06:37] <chet> sandgorgon: well played sir
[06:37] <silv3r_m00n> bullgard4: I have to alternatively resize partitions placing all data in the other partition
[06:37] <PlayX> my lucid ist booting slower than karmic
[06:38] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: I do not remember how long it took me to resize 200 MB. I believe this was more than an hour.
[06:38] <dacs> got two question: 1) how can i pull other ubuntu box e.g like vnc ? 2) i installed 32bit on one of my 64bit box, how can i change it from 32 to 64 bit , or do i have to download and install the 64bit section
[06:38] <karma_police_> i like lucid.. i haven't started encountering probs until i started trying to make persistent live usb's.. doing it more for a hobby of showing off linux to my friends who think windows 7 is the new ham sandwitch
[06:39] <silv3r_m00n> all my partitions are in gb .......114 gb * 4
[06:39] <SandGorgon> dacs, yes.. u need clean reinstall
[06:39] <bullgard4> PlayX: This is an often heard complaint. Please analyze first your dmesg.
[06:39] <silv3r_m00n> then it would probably take weeks
[06:39] <silv3r_m00n> I installed ubuntu on the first partition , and now need to install windows , is that possible ?
[06:39] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: thats still a bad idea.. think of the liklyhood of a specific partition randomly failing versus if the entire disk fails.. which happens all too often
[06:39] <karma_police_> its better to install windows first
[06:40] <karma_police_> windows install will wipe out grub
[06:40] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: yes.. just a pain
[06:40] <dacs> SandGorgon: that sucks :)
[06:40] <xeer0> silv3r_m00n: Yes, but grub will be overwritten, so you'll need to fiddle with a live usb or cd afterwards
[06:40] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: It is possible to first install Ubuntu and Windows afterwards. But the other sequence is to be recommended.
[06:40] <silv3r_m00n> ya I shall get back grub using a live cd
[06:40] <PlayX> is in the kdenlive a bug? i have white stripe in all of my videos
[06:40] <SandGorgon> silv3r_m00n, it is preferable that you install windows first... since it wipes out the multiboot. But if you install windows now - you'll have boot once with a livecd to write grub to your boot partition and get multiboot back
[06:41] <karma_police_> brb
[06:41] <Gnea> chet: I'm not sure, have you tried to see if there are any alternative brightness-type controls for the gui?
[06:41] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: it;s just one extra step
[06:41] <SandGorgon> is there a way to get a plymouth theme that behaves like usplash - simple, no KMS and still looks good on my 1280x800 laptop ?
[06:42] <xeer0> Well, gn ppl ... You take the beating of the lynx and tame it, I'll stick with the koala for a few more months
[06:42] <chet> gnea: not sure what you mean by alternative brightness controls for gui, sorry ive only had ubuntu for about a grand total of 2 weeks
[06:43] <bitserf> does the launchpad password reset work? trying to let people on an existing bug know that i've found a workaround, but not getting anything delivered to my gmail acct
[06:43] <silv3r_m00n> is there a way to go back to karmic from lucid
[06:43] <mossi> I'm here again and couldn't start the nm-applet :(
[06:43] <silv3r_m00n> I had upgraded karmic by using the alternate cd
[06:44] <bullgard4> silv3r_m00n: No.
[06:44] <bitserf> it's an annoying bug that has existed since, like, forever :)
[06:44] <silv3r_m00n> gr8
[06:44] <zhengshi> hello
[06:44] <mossi> Does anyone know how i can connect to my wlan via the terminal
[06:44] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: well.. yes there is.. is your /home on it's own partition?
[06:44] <silv3r_m00n> no
[06:45] <silv3r_m00n> is it fine to have the swap partition to the left of the partition where ubuntu is installed ?
[06:45] <svscvsc> Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_2.6.24-26.64_i386.deb
[06:45] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: you should get into the habbit of doing that..
[06:45] <svscvsc> why? Why am I getting a 404 on de archive?
[06:45] <svscvsc> 8.04
[06:45] <bullgard4> mossi: iwconfig
[06:45] <silv3r_m00n> Gartral: I am new to this , can you explain this a bit ?
[06:46] <svscvsc> apt-get install build-essential
[06:46] <svscvsc> fails
[06:46] <mossi> bullgard4 i will look in to that
[06:46] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: i put swap in the "middle"ish part of the drive and build around it, starting with / /boot /home and /tmp
[06:46] <svscvsc> Err http://de.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main linux-libc-dev 2.6.24-26.64
[06:46] <svscvsc>   404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[06:46] <svscvsc> why is this happening? I apt-get update
[06:46] <silv3r_m00n> separate partition for each of the directories ?
[06:47] <Gartral> svscvsc: your on hardy?
[06:47] <dacs> were can i download 9.10 , i don't want 10.x
[06:47] <svscvsc> Right. it says it there
[06:47] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: yes. cause i swap my os alot, i like only really having to change just a small bit of data
[06:47] <svscvsc> Gartral, yes
[06:48] <Gartral> !hardy | svscvsc
[06:48] <silv3r_m00n> Gartral: can you explain that further
[06:48] <silv3r_m00n> you mean you use /home between linux and windows ?
[06:48] <svscvsc> Gartral, what are you doing?
[06:48] <zhengshi> Hardy= =
[06:48] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«?
[06:48] <svscvsc> zhengshi, use words
[06:49] <zhengshi> strong suggestion that you should upgrade to 10.04
[06:49] <silv3r_m00n> isn't there some problem with fonts on lucid lynx ?
[06:49] <dacs> where can i download 9.10
[06:49] <svscvsc> zhengshi, strong suggestion that you have no idea what you are talking about
[06:49] <silv3r_m00n> there don't like they were in karmic before the upgrade
[06:49] <Tunker> Hi, I  updated ubuntu 9.04 to 10.04, with something wrong with the launch. runlevel displays unknovn. It  does not work start from rc.local, vbox each time proist recompile a  kernel.
[06:49] <zhengshi> why use such an old edition
[06:49] <svscvsc> zhengshi, because what I run on it works
[06:49] <zhengshi> oh i see
[06:50] <svscvsc> zhengshi, there is an audio issue with later versions, so I have a script that works on this version
[06:50] <svscvsc> It's not like its my damn ($#*& computer
[06:50] <svscvsc> its a machine on a box that sits in a room
[06:50] <svscvsc> so why do I care
[06:50] <svscvsc> I care that i get two idiotic repsonses
[06:50] <zhengshi> Oh I see
[06:50] <datacrusher> hello everyone. i got a pc with windows xp installed, and started an installation with ubuntu 10.04, but my cd for some reason got corrupted. i went with 9.10 desktop boot to install and upgrade, but its not finding my disks on the partitons part of the installation
[06:50] <svscvsc> Wow Gartral you posted a trigger, good one
[06:50] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: no.. Linux describes a MASSIVE range of hundred of seperate flavors or distributions.. i use windows for gaming, and keep a FAT32 "bitlocker" partition. or just inject from linux into windows (as theres no etx4 driver for windows yet, i cant go vise-versa)
[06:50] <zhengshi> I am sorry
[06:50] <svscvsc> Anyway, there is a 404
[06:50] <mossi> What would be the exact command if i would wan't to connect to my wlan named "Penttila"
[06:50] <svscvsc> seems fairly obvious some issue with the server unless there is something local that can cause that.
[06:50] <svscvsc> I'll switch mirrors
[06:51] <Gartral> svscvsc: Hardy is EOL, you cant update anymore, you have to grab an alternat install cd
[06:51] <silv3r_m00n> what is FAT32 "bitlocker" partition ?
[06:51] <zhengshi> anyone use Gentoo? I have strong interest in it
[06:51] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: a partition thats formatted to fat32.. names bitlocker :P
[06:52] <silv3r_m00n> firefox isn't following the font setting of gnome
[06:52] <silv3r_m00n> why?
[06:52] <chet> bitlocker is a vista and windows 7 encryption thing i think
[06:52] <silv3r_m00n> how do I fix it ?
[06:52] <Gartral> chet: yea.. but ive been using the term for anything thats an encypted external disk, or seperate partition thats lives to share data between oses
[06:53] <silv3r_m00n> this is how arial font looks after upgrading to lucid lynx >> http://img532.imageshack.us/i/fontfb.png/     why ? how do I fix it ?
[06:53] <chet> ah ok
[06:53] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: forefox has it's own font settings..
[06:53] <silv3r_m00n> Gartral: ya , played enough with them , before the upgrade firefox looked perfect , better than windows , but after upgrade , its useless
[06:53] <silv3r_m00n> kind of rubbish
[06:53] <chet> so, i think ive gathered all the info to have my laptop model fully supported by ubuntu with some tweaks, is there somewhere i can post them so devs can see it? launchpad or what?
[06:54] <silv3r_m00n> even in kde fonts are looking strange , some look taller , some shorter some roundish
[06:54] <silv3r_m00n> I came across this page >> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/512615   but don't know if that is what is causing the problem
[06:54] <anca> dirc.net
[06:54] <zhxk> hello, anybody help me to speak on #freenode?
[06:54] <silv3r_m00n> Gartral: btw which windows do you use for gaming ? xp vista or 7 ?
[06:54] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: odd.. lucid is very new and buggy.. right now.. my lucid doesnt even BOOT so..
[06:54] <Nitro> Ah, anyone know how to fix the problem where after you install it to a harddrive and it boots up but it still says installation failed?
[06:54] <Gartral> silv3r_m00n: pm
[06:54] <anthony> zhxk what are you want?
[06:55] <zhxk> i want speak on freenode
[06:55] <zhxk> i was quieted there
[06:55] <zhxk> i was made quieted there
[06:55] <silv3r_m00n> well I was too excited to upgrade to lucid , but now regretting it
[06:55] <anthony> zhxk use mic to say?
[06:55] <silv3r_m00n> karmic was far far good looking , fonts are important after all
[06:55] <zhxk> sure
[06:56] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: Try committing yourself to do clean installations instead of upgrades. I think you'll face far less issues that way.
[06:56] <arinda> hey all. how can i produce pdf file from tex file? maybe in console?
[06:56] <anthony> zhxk will, i never try this, i play irc first, don't know how to do .
[06:56] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: I can't do that everytime
[06:56] <Gnea> chet: apt-cache search brightness
[06:56] <Nitro>  Ah, anyone know how to fix the problem where after you install it to a harddrive and it boots up but it still says installation failed?
[06:56] <aioobe> I have a (CD-less) laptop and a 512 MB usb-stick... how do I go about to install? (The usb-creator program does not seem to accept the mini.iso.)
[06:56] <Nitro> (Ubuntu)
[06:56] <zhxk> one op on freenode quieted me on #freenode
[06:57] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: Every 6 months? (Or LTS, every 3 years).
[06:58] <red2kic> aioobe: Use ubuntu-desktop.iso -- Not mini.iso
[06:58] <mossi> so how do connect to my wlan through the terminal, what is the command i should use if the name of my wlan is "Bob"
[06:59] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: what about the data and work
[06:59] <aioobe> red2kic: but that's on 700 meg!
[06:59] <chet> gnea: i think the problem is all good with this xorg fix, its definitely on nvidia's end. been searching and the whole samsung 9200m and 9300m series of gpus have this problem
[06:59] <dst_> hello
[06:59] <wildbat> aioobe, does it have netwrk access?
[06:59] <chet> gnea: i wish i could post this couple fixes somewhere central though so it doesnt take as much diggin as i had to do
[07:00] <Gnea> chet: alright. you might want to consider making a post to ubuntuforums.org about it too, there's a different angle of audience
[07:00] <aioobe> Yes.
[07:00] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: I'm just saying... is all. You can fix KDE font issues. I use GNOME. You can ask somebody here or #kubuntu or maybe #kde too.  Backup your data and work. Also, see !home (in future, it's easier to have home on different partition (or hard drive even).
[07:00] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«?
[07:00] <chet> gnea: will do, thanks for the help.
[07:00] <wildbat> aioobe, make a bootable USB with net install
[07:00] <aioobe> net install = mini.iso?
[07:01] <red2kic> aioobe: 700 MB, yes. Why can't you download it? mini.iso retrieve packages from network (which can be just about same as 700 MB).
[07:01] <{g}> Hey People! Whats the best way to get rid of the flash player that comes with Ubuntu and install Flash Player 10?
[07:01] <wildbat> aioobe, ya
[07:01] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: suppose I have /home on a different partition and then reinstall linux , will that home stay there ?
[07:01] <aioobe> wildbat: as I said, usb-creator does not accept mini.iso: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/506441
[07:02] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: Yes. Given that you don't format over the "home" partition and at the installation prompt, you points /home to whatever your partitions sit.
[07:02] <wildbat> you can do it manually
[07:02] <{g}> wildbat: you mean me?
[07:02] <aioobe> wildbat: how? are there any instructions out there?
[07:02] <wildbat> aioobe, you can do it manually
[07:03] <GothSpark> hi , every one , I am having a little problems with the compiz window mamanger >,<
[07:03] <wildbat> {g}, no for you but ~
[07:03] <dst_> A student of mine is having a problem with Ubuntu 10.04:  he's trying to compile some C++ code and the system can't find cc1plus
[07:03] <wildbat> !flash | {g}
[07:03] <wildbat> aioobe, you are on windows or linux now?
[07:03] <dst_> he has g++ and build-essential installed
[07:03] <NerdsMcGee> !Restricted
[07:03] <aioobe> I have linux on my laptop, and windows on the laptop that I want to install linux on.
[07:04] <{g}> How can i search installed software? I know I can search all packages with apt-cache search. but how can i do it fo already installed packages? I would like to find the installed flash plugin and remove it.
[07:04] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: what else can I keep on separate partitions ?
[07:04] <colin__> whosi wet
[07:04] <red2kic> !home | silv3r_m00n
[07:04] <colin__> whois wet
[07:04] <Necrosporus> I made live usb image of ubuntu 10.04, but it doesn't boot, spamming terminal with message /init: line 7: can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found
[07:04] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: That's all you need. Home and maybe /etc (it's only 10~mb at most).
[07:04] <{g}> wildbat: it says how to install flashplugin-nonfree. but dont i have to deinstall the old one first?
[07:05] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: /etc is too big
[07:05] <silv3r_m00n> isn't it
[07:05] <wildbat> aioobe, what you need is grub or grub4dos installed on the usb ~ was it FAT ot NTFS?
[07:05] <silv3r_m00n> infact here I see too many things in it
[07:05] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: "du -sh /etc" will tell you.
[07:06] <aioobe> wildbat: the usb-stick is probably fat
[07:06] <Necrosporus> I used manual way: mkdosfs /dev/sdb; mount /dev/sdb; cp -a ubuntu/* /mnt/sdb; cd /mnt/sdb; mv isolinux syslinux; cd syslinux; mv isolinux.cfg syslinux.cfg; umount /dev/sdb; syslinux /dev/sdb
[07:06] <silv3r_m00n> only 18mb
[07:06] <silv3r_m00n> kewl
[07:06] <wildbat> {g}, sudo apt-get remove xulrunner-1.9.2
[07:07] <Necrosporus> How can I correct my usb stick to make it boot?
[07:07] <{g}> wildbat: what is xulrunner?
[07:07] <wildbat> aioobe, get grub4dos ~ and install on the usb
[07:07] <CaptainTrek> anyone here familiar with Apache-related packages?
[07:07] <wildbat> {g},  that's the free flash player and open java
[07:07] <CaptainTrek> nobody's answering in -server
[07:07] <Necrosporus> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/492301
[07:07] <Necrosporus> This bug looks similar, but it is about live usb creator
[07:07] <aioobe> wildbat: ok, and then? (aren't there any complete instructinos on the web)?
[07:08] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: /etc is for system-wide configuration files. It's a must. Anyway, the real problem is that you're facing issues with KDE fonts. Try hitting all channels first. Kubutnu, KDE, Firefox.
[07:08] <lucio> helo.. trying to get friends vaio wireless intelpro 3945..doesn't seem to see mine but see neighbors router
[07:08] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: I have suggested to keep /boot and /tmp also separete , what the benefits in that case
[07:08] <lucio> am using one with bcm4318 sideByside with no problem
[07:08] <wildbat> aioobe, not that i know ;p ~ then extract the casper flder files in iso and make a menu.lst
[07:08] <GothSpark> the problem I have is simple but eeem some how annoying , I cant have the extra effects...
[07:09] <{g}> wildbat: cant i just remove the flash player?
[07:10] <jumbers> This indicator-applet thing is very annoying and frustrating. How can I get rid of it?
[07:10] <CaptainTrek> anyone here familiar with Apache-related packages?  nobody's responding in -server.
[07:10] <biscuit314> join #asterisk
[07:11] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: Flexible data control? I don't really know the plus/minus benefits of that. Also, I have 20GB HDD (for /) and 300GB HDD for (/home) so it is nice to keep things organized. Media, music, videos, etc stays in /home (or different storage).
[07:11] <jimlovell777> Is there a way to loopback a webcam stream? I found something called "Video4linux loopback" but I was hoping to find a solution that's in the repos.
[07:11] <chet> jimlovell777: try cheese
[07:11] <gottto> CaptainTrek: if you hve no luck here you can try in #httpd
[07:12] <CaptainTrek> gottto, i got the help i need thanks
[07:12] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: 20gb is enough to install things from synaptic ?
[07:12] <silv3r_m00n> like big games or softwares ?
[07:12] <silv3r_m00n> coz software goes into /
[07:12] <red2kic> jumbers: "sudo aptitude purge $PACKAGE" (or use Synathic if you're not comfortable with terminal).
[07:12] <LordCrc> hi, i'm reinstalling and id like to keep my home directory on a separate drive/partition, and also configure it to prevent data loss in case things happen (ie freezes, crashes)... any tips?
[07:12] <jimlovell777> chet: I have cheese installed but I'm trying to download a stream and re-broadcast it as a new stream. Can cheese do that?
[07:12] <wildbat> {g}, hmmm  you have to hmmm let me check which package...
[07:12] <jumbers> red2kic: It's telling me I have to remove ubuntu-desktop though
[07:13] <researcher1> how can I creat video of the ap[plication runing in ubuntu?
[07:13] <GothSpark> researcher you mean screen capture ?
[07:13] <{g}> wildbat: i removed "flashplugin-installer" and it killed flash in firefox :)
[07:13] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: ubuntu-desktop can be removed safely. It's a meta-package. If you're not too comfortable, I think you can leave indicator-applet alone (but purge -complete and -session packages)
[07:13] <chet> jimlovell777: if memory serves i believe so, i cant check for you atm
[07:14] <researcher1> GothSpark: Not screen capture but rather video as we do with windows using camstasia
[07:14] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: Yes. Even 4G is sufficient. I'll get you minimal info.
[07:14] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: me?
[07:14] <jimlovell777> chet: That's ok, I'll double check. I already have it installed.
[07:14] <GothSpark> Iknow researcher but un linux it is called like that :p. you can use Gtk Reccord my desktop
[07:14] <silv3r_m00n> red2kic: softwares are isntalled in / right ?

[07:15] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: The packages are usually saved on /bin or more likely, /usr/bin -- See !clone
[07:15] <histo> b33r: you can change it in gconf editor
[07:16] <BRc> hey all

[07:16] <gottto> !appdb | abhijain1
[07:16] <abhijain1> b33r: no there is no way . even after some time u become familiar

[07:19] <{g}> wildbat: not sure if it made a difference. fullscreen youtube is still a bit messy
[07:19] <b33r> histo, thanks
[07:19] <histo> silv3r_m00n: you can get selections but most of the packages may be broken if the dependencies are changed
[07:19] <red2kic> silv3r_m00n: It'll list all names of the packages (on your current system) to a text file.  On your fresh machine, you run commands with text file. All instructions are right there on the !clone -- Read carefully. See what it is doing.
[07:19] <rww> ubottu: controls | khussein78

[07:22] <wildbat> aioobe, how is your usb going? ~
[07:22] <altitron> Hey I have a m3u file and I opened it with vlc and totem and I can only hear the sound, what should I open it with to see video too?
[07:22] <histo> z0z: click on yoru connection and then click edit
[07:23] <khussein78> thanks i will try it
[07:23] <histo> !codecs | altitron
[07:23] <wildbat> {g}, you are using intel GMA then i guess
[07:23] <{g}> wildbat: whats gma?
[07:23] <researcher1> whats a VOB fiel and where can I play it?
[07:24] <histo> researcher1: files for dvds
[07:24] <altitron> histo,  thank you!
[07:24] <wildbat> {g}, The Intel Graphics Media Accelerator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA
[07:25] <researcher1> histo: which player can play it?
[07:25] <BRc> i want to access my ubuntu 10.04 files from windows 7??
[07:25] <histo> researcher1: totem might which is the default player if not vlc should be able to handle them
[07:25] <{g}> wildbat: how do i know if im using it?
[07:25] <Necrosporus> BRc, you don't want it
[07:25] <histo> !samba | BRc
[07:25] <Necrosporus> You want to remove windows
[07:26] <BRc> no i need it for games hehe
[07:26] <histo> BRc: are you talking about on the same machine?
[07:26] <Necrosporus> Games is Wesnoth
[07:26] <Necrosporus> it's better then windows games
[07:26] <BRc> yes for sur same machine
[07:26] <wildbat> {g}; that's your hardware , you and list them by "lspci" in terminal
[07:26] <histo> BRc: then in windows you will need an ext4 file browser
[07:26] <researcher1> histo: vlc played failed to run it
[07:26] <BRc> one drive is 1ter..and the other when ubuntu is500gig
[07:26] <Necrosporus> BRc, windows doesn't support normal filesystems, only crapped FAT and NTFS
[07:27] <GothSpark> eeem >.< I am runing Ubunt on ntfs
[07:27] <BRc> Wesnoth?
[07:27] <histo> !codecs | researcher1
[07:27] <Necrosporus> But you can use wine to play windows games
[07:27] <robscomputer> can I pop in and ask a quick question off topic?
[07:27] <Necrosporus> BRc, Battle for Wesnoth
[07:28] <histo> BRc: you want to access your ubuntu files while your booted in windows?

[07:28] <{g}> wildbat: ^ thats what i get
[07:28] <BRc> no the other way around histo
[07:29] <histo> BRc: well under the places menu you should see your windows drive
[07:29] <histo> BRc: if not you may have to mount it.
[07:29] <andruk> how do i find out what type of partition is on my hard drive via the command line?
[07:29] <histo> andruk: sudo fdisk -l
[07:29] <wildbat> {g}, that's intel chip  ~ unluckily we don't have very good driver for graphic acceleration on linux :< ~
[07:30] <andruk> histo: it says "Id: 83, System: Linux", so does that mean ext3 or ext4?
[07:30] <CaptainTrek> indeed, {g}
[07:30] <{g}> wildbat: i have intel on my other notebook too and it plays youtube smoothly.
[07:30] <rww> andruk: "mount" will tell you, if it's mounted.
[07:30] <histo> andruk: ahh you want to see what type of filesystem?
[07:30] <tripelb> mark me "solved" (mark ogen "solved" too) lol
[07:30] <CaptainTrek> {g} there's different intel chipsets for graphics and some computers dont use intel graphics
[07:30] <BRc> histo, cant see it..
[07:31] <tripelb> I have intel on my drives too. My own intel. lol
[07:31] <CaptainTrek> {g} just because you use intel for processors, you dont get their graphics
[07:31]  * tripelb backs off
[07:31] <wildbat> {g}, just install the flash 10 ~ that all you can do ~
[07:31] <CaptainTrek> !ot | tripelb
[07:31] <histo> andruk: use parted and type in print
[07:31] <GothSpark> >.< I saw the cause of my problems but I will need help to solve it
[07:31] <histo> andruk: will show you the file systems
[07:31] <{g}> CaptainTrek: both notebooks have intel graphic cards
[07:31] <CaptainTrek> {g} could be slightly different chipsets then
[07:31] <{g}> yes
[07:31] <{g}> i will try ubuntu 10
[07:31] <histo> !ntfs | BRc
[07:32] <{g}> maybe it will make a difference
[07:32] <CaptainTrek> {g} dont just jump to that conclusion xD
[07:32] <andruk> histo: thanks, that worked.
[07:32] <Baram> Since we don't have TRIM support yet, what options do I have for my OCZ Vertex?
[07:32] <{g}> wildbat: i installed flash 10. didnt make a difference
[07:32] <GothSpark> I have the extra plugins pacage missing ... so I need to install the, manualy how can I do that ?
[07:32] <{g}> CaptainTrek: what conclusion?
[07:32] <steven__> why cant i use compiz options
[07:32] <BRc> yes
[07:32] <andruk> rww: i was trying to find out what type of filesystem it was so i could mount it!  ;-) thanks tho.
[07:32] <wildbat> {g} you ain't on ubuntu 10?
[07:32] <{g}> wildbat: ubuntu 8 i think
[07:32] <coz_> steven__,  what exactly do you mean?
[07:32] <Sheepherd> hi all... first time i connected my mobile phone via usb a menu popped up where i could chose what to do next (view pictures, listen to music). after reconnecting the device this menu doesnt appear anymore... someone knows why?
[07:33] <rww> andruk: mount should autodetect the filesystem type if it's ext3 or ext4 =
[07:33] <{g}> wildbat: ubuntu 0
[07:33] <BRc> thx will try that...
[07:33] <{g}> wildbat: ubuntu 9
[07:33] <{g}> :)
[07:33] <histo> BRc: follow the directions for manually mounting
[07:33] <histo> BRc: you can then later add the options to fstab
[07:33] <histo> !fstab | BRc
[07:33] <soreau> GothSpark: apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[07:33] <GothSpark> ooo thank's *.* sorem
[07:33] <soreau> steven__: What option specifically?
[07:33] <steven__> i right hit the compiz ion and i cant selected  compiz options
[07:33] <wildbat> {g} get 10 i got better graphic speed ~ i945 here
[07:33] <rww> {g}, wildbat: Ubuntu version formats are Year.Month (e.g. 10.04 came out in April 2010). Saying "Ubuntu 9" (for example) is ambiguous :)
[07:34] <BRc> histo, thx have enought here ...going to try it now
[07:34] <soreau> ! ccsm | steven__
[07:34] <coz_> steven__,  ah I see ...which video card to you have
[07:34] <{g}> wildbat: ok, will try ubuntu 10
[07:34] <wildbat> rww, i know but there is only one 10 so far ;p
[07:34] <{g}> rww: ok
[07:34] <steven__> coz_: idk
[07:35] <coz_> steven__,   open a terminal     lspci  | grep -i vga
[07:35] <rww> wildbat: You'd be surprised at how early after release dev stuff gets started ;P
[07:36] <wildbat> rww, i think they started now ~ but nothing for us to DL ^^ ~
[07:36] <Azeotrope> Can I use Lucid Lynx liveCD to update a 8.04 system?
[07:36] <coz_> steven__,  just copy and paste that command into the terminal window
[07:36] <histo> !upgrade | Azeotrope
[07:36] <rww> Azeotrope: No. The Live/Desktop CD can't do upgrades; you need the Alternate CD for that.
[07:36] <steven__> coz_: i did give me one sec ok
[07:36] <coz_> steven__, sure
[07:36] <microhaxo> Upgraded from 9.10 and my wifi on my netbook is DOA.
[07:37] <coz_> steven__,   just in case the command is      lspci | grep -i vga
[07:38] <skrite> hey all, i have sound when in gnome, but not in compiz standalone what might be happening there?
[07:38] <histo> microhaxo: what kind of card is it?
[07:38] <histo> skrite: what is compiz standalone?
[07:38] <steven__> how do i copy in past what the hot keys
[07:38] <coz_> steven__,   the easiest way to copy and paste in linux is to highligh text...like the command I gave...and simply middle click inside terminal window...or  a text editor
[07:38] <histo> steven__: ctrl+shift+c and ctrl+shft+v
[07:39] <microhaxo> histo: GE780 Wireless  its an Asus Eee 1000he
[07:39] <robscomputer> I saw some screenshots of Ubuntu desktops with a cpu/performance widget, what is that called?
[07:39] <histo> microhaxo: do you know what chipset it has?
[07:39] <histo> microhaxo: you may need to install restrcited drivers or firmware for your card.
[07:39] <skrite> histo, well, i mean i am running compiz as a window manager without useing a desktop environment like gnome or kde or xfce4
[07:39] <bazhang> robscomputer, conky, most likely
[07:39] <coz_> steven__,  well highlight and middle click are the easiest however in terminal  to copy from a terminal it is  shift+ctrl+c  and to paste into a terminal it is  shift+ctrl+v
[07:39] <microhaxo> histo: rt2860sta
[07:39] <gottto> robscomputer: it might have been conky
[07:39] <robscomputer> thanks!
[07:39] <jbrouhard> robscomputer, probably conky
[07:40] <Azeotrope> rww: histo thank you
[07:40] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«?
[07:40] <histo> microhaxo: hrm... should be working unless there is somethign in release notes about that chipset
[07:40] <gottto> !conky | robscomputer
[07:40] <histo> skrite: well maybe sound isn't being started then in your X
[07:40] <steven__> coz_: this is it
[07:40] <microhaxo> idk, its funny If i reboot like 4 times it will connect for like 2 min and then it just disconnects and eventually it doesnt even show that i have wireless.
[07:40] <steven__> coz_: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)

[07:41] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5436679 robscomputer
[07:41] <histo> microhaxo: so it does work its just intermitent.  I would search for your chipset on the forums or on launchpad bugs
[07:41] <steven__> coz_: is this a good card
[07:41] <coz_> steven__,   ok the compiz options under fusion icon are generally for nvidia cards however now with the new nvidia drivers ..both of those options are actually no longer needed
[07:41] <microhaxo> ok, thanks histo.
[07:41] <histo> skrite: what are you trying to do just X with compiz?
[07:41] <unimatrix> how do i fix the ugly splash screen resolution in lucid?
[07:41] <coz_> steven__,   the card is fine but compiz options are not necessary for that
[07:41] <histo> skrite: or openbox or something?
[07:41] <skrite> no, just compiz
[07:41] <steven__> coz_: thank you
[07:41] <coz_> steven__,  no problem
[07:41] <histo> skrite: let me check something
[07:42] <skrite> ok
[07:42] <steven__> skrite: what up
[07:42] <steven__> with compiz
[07:42] <skrite> steven__, hi, oh, just can't get sound working if not running gnome
[07:42] <daiatlus79> hello?
[07:42] <daiatlus79> i need some help
[07:43] <steven__> dude i cant help with that srooy
[07:43] <daiatlus79> lucid user here
[07:43] <skrite> also, i am using compiz and is very very slow, but when gnome is running, it is fine.
[07:43] <coz_> daiatlus79,  whats the issue?
[07:43] <daiatlus79> i just did a partial upgrade and now i cannot access anything to do with networking
[07:43] <skrite> steven__, it's cool. i havn't seen this one before either
[07:43] <histo> skrite: did you install a sound system? or how are you starting X
[07:43] <daiatlus79> i am using a spare computer to talk to you now
[07:43] <skrite> removed gdm and start x with startx
[07:43] <daiatlus79> my laptop cannot even use its ethernet or wlan to connect online
[07:43] <coz_> daiatlus79,  ah oh
[07:43] <dethray> I've never had luck with upgradeds
[07:44] <daiatlus79> i think that its the nm-applet bug
[07:44] <daiatlus79> so what are my options?
[07:44] <histo> skrite: did it remove pulse and sound items?
[07:45] <steven__> dose someone know a site where i can learn sudo and comm. for the termainal
[07:45] <histo> !sound > skrite
[07:45] <daiatlus79> i am using xubuntu by the way (i dont think it would make any difference)
[07:45] <coz_> daiatlus79,  off hand I am not sure....that may be due to it being nearly 3am here  however.... but... I am guessing someone has a solution here  so just hold on for someone to answer... I need sleep :)
[07:45] <daiatlus79> ok
[07:45] <daiatlus79> its 345 am here
[07:45] <histo> daiatlus79: have you tried configuring it manually?
[07:45] <daiatlus79> soooooo....
[07:45] <TyanColte> hello everybody
[07:46] <daiatlus79> how so?
[07:46] <skrite> histo, thanks
[07:46] <daiatlus79> nm-applet is not there anyomre
[07:46] <skrite> going to back out and retry
[07:46] <bazhang> daiatlus79, please dont use the enter key as punctuation
[07:46] <daiatlus79> neither is network-manager-gnome
[07:46] <histo> daiatlus79: with /etc/network/interfaces
[07:46] <daiatlus79> huh
[07:46] <daiatlus79> ?
[07:46] <histo> daiatlus79: or ifconfig
[07:46] <coz_> daiatlus79,  often it is more useful to type out the first 2 or 3 letters of somone you aretalking to and hitting tab to complete the nick so that they are alerted
[07:46] <bazhang> daiatlus79, open a terminal and type ifconfig; what do you see (all on one line, again, please)
[07:47] <eivind> Update to Lucid failed before it finished but Lucid seems to have installed. How to I force it to finish? apt-get upgrade only finds a google chrome update.
[07:47] <TyanColte> i have a question, i'm trying to automount my windows 7 partition by editing /etc/fstab but when i did at first it said only root can, then i put sudo in front of the command and it lets me mount but not without my root password, is there any way to automount this thing without having my password?
[07:47] <coz_> i need sleep night
[07:47] <histo> !paste | daithif
[07:47] <daiatlus79> thanks histo
[07:47] <histo> !fstab > TyanColte
[07:48] <histo> TyanColte: root should mount it on boot if its in yoru fstab. ONly root can mount
[07:48] <daiatlus79> ok histo  it says in the interfaces file auto lo then the next line says iface lo inet loopback
[07:48] <arthur> Hello!
[07:48] <TyanColte> it wont mount on boot, i have the syntax correct i know i do but it won't automount
[07:48] <histo> daiatlus79: can you pastebin the output of ifconfig
[07:48] <daiatlus79> histo:  how do i do that?
[07:49] <histo> TyanColte: can you pastebin yoru fstab
[07:49] <TyanColte> sure
[07:49] <histo> !paste > daiatlus79
[07:49] <daiatlus79> i am still learning about linux
[07:49] <histo> daiatlus79: just copy and paste to paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link
[07:49] <steven__> !offtopic
[07:49] <daiatlus79> i have no network connection at all on that computer that i am having the issues with
[07:49] <histo> daiatlus79: ahh
[07:49] <TyanColte> what's the SU command for the run box?
[07:49] <daiatlus79> yeah.. i am on a spare i am using
[07:50] <TyanColte> desu?
[07:50] <histo> daiatlus79: well is there eth0 or eth1 in the results?
[07:50] <Necrosporus> ubottu, but noone answers my question
[07:50] <bazhang> !bot > Necrosporus
[07:50] <daiatlus79> histo: where do i find ifconfig?
[07:50] <Ozzah> Hi. On my PC when I try to bood the 9.10 LiveCD, I get a message "[something] Sleeping forever" during bootup, and now with 10.04 LiveCD It boots to a black screen and never displays a picture. I'm using an i7 with a Radeon HD5850 with a SATA 1Tb drive on a gigabyte motherboard, 4GB ram. Any help please?
[07:50] <histo> daiatlus79: open a terminal applications > accesories > terminal
[07:50] <histo> daiatlus79: type in ifconfig
[07:51] <daiatlus79> ok i got terminal open
[07:51] <daiatlus79> histo:  ok i did that...
[07:51] <bazhang> TyanColte, gksudo gedit (for example)
[07:51] <histo> daiatlus79: is there an eth0 listing?
[07:51] <TyanColte> thank you bazhang
[07:51] <daiatlus79> histo: what line woudl the ethernet be in
[07:51] <daiatlus79> histo: nothing for either eth0 or a wlan at all
[07:52] <TyanColte> http://pastebin.com/sKe9pfh2
[07:52] <histo> daiatlus79: ont he left it will list the interfaces like eth0 wlan lo
[07:52] <daiatlus79> histo:  no interfaces listed...
[07:53] <histo> TyanColte: get rid of the sudo in fstab
[07:53] <TyanColte> that causes it to not mount, the only way it would mount is if i added that
[07:53] <histo> daiatlus79: it ooutputs nothign?
[07:53] <TyanColte> otherwise when i tried to mount it manually it said only root can mount
[07:53] <histo> TyanColte: no remove sudo
[07:53] <daiatlus79> histo: nothing at all... the thing lists loobacks
[07:53] <TyanColte> i've tried it before i put sudo in there
[07:54] <histo> TyanColte: also make sure that /media/Windows7Drive exhists
[07:54] <histo> TyanColte: okay well I can't help you then
[07:54] <histo> daiatlus79: did you try scrolling up perhaps the output is off the screen
[07:54] <TyanColte> wait, does the folder have to exist before i can mount to it?
[07:54] <TyanColte> that dosn't make sense
[07:54] <histo> TyanColte: yes and sudo doesn't belong in fstab
[07:54] <histo> TyanColte: but you do what you want.
[07:54] <daiatlus79> histo: nope... it all there.. i have terminals font small so it wont do that..
[07:55] <te_> 3~
[07:55] <histo> daiatlus79: I have no idea its not seeing your network cards. Try lspci see if a network adapter shows up there
[07:55] <TyanColte> you're telling me something i alreday know, i know sudo doesn't belong in fstab, i put it in there temporarily to make it work for a bit but i was trying to figure out how to make it automount without using it
[07:55] <airtonix> TyanColte, can't mount something on something that doesn't exist
[07:55] <histo> TyanColte: You don't need it in fstab putting it in there is causing issues
[07:55] <histo> TyanColte: its doing nothing
[07:55] <TyanColte> figured it would create it
