[15:04] <ohir> donkeyinspace: check your bios settings first if usb boot is supported and allowed
[15:04] <BluesKaj> j-r, why not just type route in the terminal, or are you trying to determine your IP remotely ?
[15:04] <coz_> yixuan,     http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/04/our-complete-guide-to-unity-in-ubuntu-11-04/
[15:04] <Sidewinder1> yixuan, Once it's installed, have a look at this: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/things-to-tweak-fix-after-installing.html
[15:04] <EgyParadox> motherboard logo??
[15:05] <RA_drc> yixuan: yes is there has find with the look google
[15:05] <RA_drc> yixuan: does there has found???
[15:05] <ohir> !cn | yixuan
[15:05] <dr_willis> nikitis,  you proberly want to edit the X init scripts for onscreen keyboard stuff. or have gdm run the app
[15:05] <Sidewinder1> tesh, I'll try; what's confusing you?
[15:05] <ohir> yixuan: could local community be of help too
[15:06] <donkeyinspace> ohir , the usb pen drive appear on the bios and im able to boot it as an ubuntu usb live if formatted as fat16 <not sure if it can as fat32>
[15:06] <j-r> hi I want to find a service which send me the ip adress of my router by mail. do you know such a service ?
[15:06] <j-r> excuse
[15:06] <jrib> j-r: why don't you use something like dyndns instead?
[15:06] <Pici> j-r: Thats not really on-topic for this channel, try #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps
[15:06] <yixuan> yes, thanks. I just found my ubuntu 11.04 is not very stable, so I need some documentation to get some help
[15:07] <|flyte|> ohir, understood. I have 8GBs of RAM
[15:07] <tesh> i have a machine with two hard drives in it, each has a separate installation of ubuntu on it...how can i mount the data partition from the other one when i start up one of the ubuntu systems...can't seem to get mount to work and i've just found out about this LVM partition
[15:07] <j-r> jrib: i 'll look at it
[15:07] <dr_willis> !lvm
[15:07] <j-r> jrib: is it this website you are talking about ? : http://www.dyndns.com/services/sendlabs/
[15:08] <|flyte|> ohir, well it sounds like ubunto server will be my host OS, and then vbox or xen as the hypervisor.
[15:08] <Maimster> Sup peoples.
[15:08] <jrib> j-r: http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/ That way you associate a hostname like jrib.dyndns.com to your router
[15:09] <dr_willis> j-r,  many routers have dyndns clients built into them. :)  makes it even easier
[15:09] <delinquentme> OoOOoo question ! who here runs Ubuntu on a mac book pro? can you talk to me about your experience with it .. good bad ?indifferent? does gesturing work?  how about the hotkeys... do they start off wonky?
[15:09] <j-r> jrib: ok thanks
[15:09] <Abc> hi....Plz tell me which is the best video editing software ?? it should also support video effects and chroma keying.
[15:10] <delinquentme> specifically ubuntu 10.04
[15:10] <j-r> dr_willis: ok I'll chech with mine
[15:10] <windparadise> hello, in SSH, i have typed ssh, to open a remote site
[15:10] <windparadise> How do I transfer file from a local server to the remote opened server using the FTP command ?
[15:11] <ohir> donkeyinspace: if you have 'installed' ubuntu on pendrive (not got there live image) your box need to support usb-hdd boot and support it properly. So far I have seen a few that can do that.
[15:11] <dr_willis> windparadise,  you use the scp command.
[15:11] <blip99> hi, I have a printer on my network connected to a Linux server and shared via SAMBA. I can use this shared printer from my Windows system, but not from my Kubuntu machine. I see the 'NAS' entry under New Printer, and when I click on it, it hangs forever and doesn't expand to show me the printer.. http://postimage.org/image/2he18z58k/
[15:11] <blip99> any ideas what the problem could be ?
[15:11] <windparadise> no, I used putty
[15:11] <windparadise> and the interface comes like ftp->
[15:11] <dr_willis> windparadise,   you used putty on ubuntu? why not just use the scp command and transfre the files?
[15:12] <dr_willis> putty is a ssh client. you said you typed ssh, not putty. :) so  i think we are all confused.
[15:12] <swim_> hey, does anybody know what the terminal command for the archive manager is??
[15:12] <dr_willis> swim_,  file-roller  perhaps.
[15:12] <swim_> cool thanks
[15:12] <ohir> donkeyinspace: so if your live pen works well and after installing to usb disk it does not boot probably your bios can not boot it
[15:13] <windparadise> ok,
[15:13] <econdudeawesome> Hey all. I get a weird sound error on my ubuntu server (running updated 10.04). FATAL_ERROR: no valid sound driver. How do I fix this?
[15:13] <swim_> dr_willis worked like a charm, can now open file manager as root.. perfect!!  thanks
[15:13] <windparadise> I used putty on windows to connect to a linux server
[15:13] <io> !sound | econdudeawesome
[15:14] <dr_willis> swim_,  you may want to learn to handle archives without running file-roller as root. :)
[15:14] <io> but why you need sound on a server is another question
[15:14] <econdudeawesome> io: thanks for the general idea, but it's all CLI
[15:14] <swim_> dr_willis what's an advantage to that??
[15:14] <ohir> donkeyinspace: you may try to do separate /boot partition of vfat type. It should be physical #1, some 256MB and try install. Mind that I have not tested said scenario, just I think that it in theory should work
[15:14] <dr_willis> swim_,  you wont accidently trash your system by a root-running app you frogot was running as root....
[15:14] <io> econdudeawesome: what's stopping you from sorting it out via CLI?
[15:15] <ohir> donkeyinspace: at least woerked in older grub or grub4dos
[15:15] <econdudeawesome> io: I have no Volume applet
[15:15] <io> econdudeawesome: see the links, then
[15:15] <donkeyinspace> ohir , are you telling me to install it on a fat partition?
[15:16] <nikitis> dr_willis: that did not work for me
[15:16] <econdudeawesome> io: apparently I have the wrong or no modules installed. How do I install sound modules?
[15:16] <admgy22> hi - what is the way I would get the total directory size under Linux of something?  (Before rsync'ing it, since in fact I am over a mobile connection and don't want to rack up charges)
[15:16] <swim_> dr_willis okay, i see what your saying..  yeah, i usually kill apps running as root as soon as i'm done with them..  i just didn't want to change the permissions of the directory that i needed to extract to.. does that sound right??  just checkin'
[15:17] <dr_willis> nikitis,  be a bit more verbiose. :) i dont even rember what the problem is/was
[15:17] <dr_willis> swim_,  there is a compuiz setting that sticks <ROOT> into the title of any app that is running as root.
[15:18] <dr_willis> swim_,  cd into the dir.. 'sudo unp /the/path/to/the/archive   '    normally works for me :)
[15:18] <nikitis> dr_willis: I'm trying to run a python script at the ubuntu logon screen.  It needs to be running before I select the user
[15:18] <swim_> dr_willis cool, i'll check that out..  thanks buddy..  compiz is awesome, isn't it??
[15:18] <dr_willis> nikitis,  tjheres ways of doing it. ive never needed to do so. I think one way would be to set up the gdm user to auto run it.   the askubuntu.com site may have some other ways.
[15:18] <nikitis> dr_willis: I have it in .profile, and the script works after login, but this is not good enough
[15:19] <io> econdudeawesome: did you check if the system is recognizing your sound card using '$ sudo aplay -l'?
[15:19] <dr_willis> nikitis,  gdm runs as its own user. befor anyone logsin.. .profile would be for bash scripts - not X stuff.
[15:19] <econdudeawesome> io: yes. No sound card recognized. But it shows up in lspci -v |less
[15:20] <windparadise> but let me ask, is ftp not faster than scp ?
[15:20] <windparadise> i am transfering files between 2 linux servers
[15:20] <dr_willis> nikitis,  theres also the /etc/gdm/ files
[15:20] <dr_willis> windparadise,  ftp may be a little faster.. but i doubt if it will be that noticeabnle.
[15:20] <dr_willis> windparadise,  scp also works basically like the cp command. so ionce youi learn how to use it.. you save time bu not needing to fire up a ftp client
[15:20] <windparadise> ok,
[15:21] <scriptwarlock> does anyone knows why i have this kind of issue?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4yPucVFGaY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
[15:21] <io> econdudeawesome: ok then continue reading the SoundTroubleshooting page which gives suggestions
[15:21] <windparadise> ok, I am using ftp command inside ssh
[15:21] <dr_willis> You dont enve need to ssh to the other box to use scp.. you can do it from machine 1, and put files on machine 2.. or visa versa
[15:21] <io> windparadise: you're using Terminal?
[15:21] <dw-> any fix for npviewer.bin crashing on 64 bit
[15:21] <dw-> with youtube
[15:22] <windparadise> yes, I am using a termnal
[15:22] <windparadise> I have on front of me the put command
[15:22] <io> windparadise: why can't you use scp instead of ftp inside ssh?
[15:22] <io> !scp | windparadise
[15:22] <dr_willis> windparadise,  its really is a good idea to learn scp.. and forget ftp even exists
[15:22] <dr_willis> windparadise,  or use a gui ftp client
[15:22] <windparadise> but wondering how do I use it to copy files from the local server to the host
[15:22] <windparadise> ok,
[15:22] <windparadise> let me use it then
[15:23] <scriptwarlock> can anyone give some time to help me sort why i have this issue? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4yPucVFGaY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
[15:23] <Trashi> scriptwarlock: i suggest you describe your problem ... nobody (at least myself) will watch a videos to find out your problem -.-
[15:24] <dw-> all of adobe's flashplayers dont work
[15:24] <windparadise> hello, u there, my connection was reset
[15:24] <dr_willis> dw-,  youtuve can use html5 for most videos with the right browser :) but thats not exactly fixing flash...
[15:24] <scriptwarlock> Trashi, ok since your the first one to reply heres my concern. an app that is not completly exits can goof conky when clicked on the desktop
[15:25] <nansun> ;;gpg eauth nansun
[15:26] <scriptwarlock> Trashi, it doesn't kill the conky but it is under the desktop when clicked
[15:26] <dr_willis> so it moves above conky then?
[15:26] <scriptwarlock> Trashi, i'm not sure if its just me or someone also has experience this in ubuntu desktop
[15:27] <bobbyd> hey, what's the program called that is like screen but has a more developed UI / hotkeys ?
[15:27] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, yes i recorded a video for that to demo the result
[15:27] <dr_willis> scriptwarlock,  various apps trying to force their own 'layer'  can alwasy be an issue. I Think some of the compiz plugins can help keep specific apps on specific layerrs
[15:28] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, can you spare some time to see the video?
[15:28] <dr_willis> also i always started conky with a delay in the past. so  the gnome desktop had time ti get started.
[15:28] <Trashi> scriptwarlock: do you use gnome?
[15:28] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, yes and unity
[15:29] <dr_willis> I dont even use conky any more. i tend to just fullscreen all my apps. so i never see conky :)
[15:30] <milkua> bobbyd: tmux?
[15:30] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, is it fine for you to check the video? its hard for me to described it in english since im not realy fluent in talking to english
[15:30] <dr_willis> !info tmux
[15:30] <Lucak> there is a way for update ubuntu 9.04 to 10?
[15:30] <Lucak> there is a way for update ubuntu 9.04 to 10?
[15:31] <edbian> Lucak: You have to go to 9.10 then to 10.04 (you have to go in order)
[15:31] <Lucak> ah ok, but how
[15:31] <EgyParadox> !upgrade
[15:32] <edbian> Lucak: system -> admin -> software sources and change the drop down from LTS to normal releases.  Then launch update manager
[15:32] <gringoire> Hey people
[15:32] <Lucak> edbian: it's on vps, acces by ssh
[15:32] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4yPucVFGaY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
[15:32] <Trashi> scriptwarlock: srry .. i just used conky with gnome and had the problem of hidden icons on my desktop .. i fixxed that with help of the "own_window yes" option .. but i think that wont help you :/ srry
[15:33] <dr_willis> scriptwarlock,  conky wants to be below everything.. but just above the root window.. if another app tries to be in the same place. the 2 can fight. you can  proberly set up compiz to force the layers to stay in the proper order.
[15:33] <edbian> Lucak: ahh, the sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:33] <|flyte|> ohmygod - IT prevents the ability to download dvd/cd images. I can't download my ubuntu server!
[15:33] <edbian> Lucak: remove the LTS line (if it's there) at the bottom)
[15:33] <edbian> Lucak: Then sudo do-release-upgrade
[15:33] <Lucak> sudo: nano: command not found
[15:34] <dr_willis> scriptwarlock,  looks like you need to twiddle with the conky settings
[15:34] <Lucak>  sudo: do-release-upgrade: command not found
[15:35] <|flyte|> is there an ftp I can connect to to download ubuntu/
[15:35] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, have you seen the video? so its not ubuntu or compiz issue and its conky?
[15:35] <dr_willis> scriptwarlock,  conky has settings you want to check out - you can proberly use compiz to set the layers.   check the conky faq also.
[15:36] <Matisse> hi
[15:36] <kodapa> hi
[15:36] <edbian> Lucak: hang on.  (did you etc /etc/apt/sources.list) ?
[15:37] <Lucak> yes
[15:37] <edbian> Lucak: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core   (this will give you the do-release-upgrade command)
[15:37] <albert> is there a channel on this server for wine related problems?
[15:37] <Matisse> dolphin wants my sudo password for mounting the extra disks, while file saving dialogs (like in Firefox) mount it without a password...
[15:38] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, so does this mean also its normal after quit/exit a firefox there is a small name residue on the top panel?
[15:39] <Lucak> edbian: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/630842/
[15:39] <dr_willis> i never noticed it with firefox scriptwarlock . I have all sorts of gfx glitches with Unity. so i would not be suprised
[15:39] <tib2011> !list
[15:39] <dr_willis> unity panel/topy menu totally messes up when i use  a browser here.. makes unity basically unuseable forme
[15:39] <|System|> albert: whats the problem?
[15:39] <scriptwarlock> dr_willis, ah ok thats all i want to know still i can live wth this though
[15:39] <edbian> Lucak: I don't see any problems with that.  Did you do do-release-upgrade yet?
[15:39] <Lucak> no edbian, which is the cmd?
[15:39] <scriptwarlock> ty guys for some insights....
[15:39] <Lucak> sudo apt-do? I don't know I am new in perl
[15:39] <donkeyinspace> ohir , guess i ve got it , thanks for the tip
[15:39] <blip99> hi, I have a printer on my network connected to a Linux server and shared via SAMBA. I can use this shared printer from my Windows system, but not from my Kubuntu machine. I see the 'NAS' entry under New Printer, and when I click on it, it hangs forever and doesn't expand to show me the printer.. http://postimage.org/image/2he18z58k/
[15:39] <blip99> any ideas what the problem could be ?
[15:40] <edbian> Lucak: We are working in bash, not perl.  Read this: http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/04/upgrading-ubuntu-from-the-command-line.html
[15:40] <Kruptein> hey I really love the vicotry theme  I only don't like the way it sets the unity topbar,  can I change this somehow without changing to another theme?
[15:40] <dr_willis> blip99,  use the cups web interface to add the printer perhaps. You may need to use its ip and not its name also.
[15:41] <dr_willis> blip99,  many network printers do printing services in ways other then samba also. My $99 laser can be accessed by ways other then samba.
[15:41] <Lucak> edbian: An upgrade from 'jaunty' to 'lucid' is not supported with this tool.
[15:42] <blip99> dr_willis: I'm not sure if it's using CUPS.  The printer is shared through a Linux-based NAS device, they have their own web interface.  It's from QNAP
[15:42] <ohir> donkeyinspace: your welcome.
[15:42] <ohir> donkeyinspace: so now you may write a short how to "installing ubuntu (version) on usb-pen" and put it on ubuntu forums.
[15:43] <edbian> Lucak: that's right.  jaunty is 9.04, karmic is 9.10, and lucid is 10.04   you have to upgrade to 9.10 first.
[15:43] <dr_willis> blip99,  linux uses cups  for everything ive ever seen.  if the server is using cups. and the local box is using cups, the web interface should be able to  see each other.
[15:43] <Lucak> edbian, how?
[15:43] <edbian> Lucak: What did you run that caused that error?
[15:43] <teal> My problem is after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10  extended desk top malfunctions, both monitors are extended, appearing a mirrored, as the extended portion is beyond the viewing range.   The method used to 'create extended  desk top was, system/preferences/monitors/unclick same image in all monitors/both/monitors are on and the resolutions is the same.  Compz installation process offers a check of the video card, mine passed it is a      ATI 9
[15:43] <teal> 200 SE (chipset RV280, AGP,  thanks in advance...
[15:43] <Lucak> sudo do-release-upgrade
[15:43] <blip99> dr_willis: I see.  Is there a port I need to point to in the web browser ?    Putting the ip just takes me to the main config page of the NAS device
[15:43] <donkeyinspace> ohir , i havent done it yet but if you give an extra help i may do it
[15:44] <blip99> ip:cups_port ?
[15:44] <dr_willis> blip99,  cups web interface -> http://localhost:631
[15:44] <wrtpeeps_> Guys, i have a stupid question. I have a process I want to start (mongodb). If i open a terminal I can start it but obviously when i close the terminal it stops. How do I get it to run constantly in the background (as as service i guess) ?
[15:44] <blip99> dr_willis: oh so the CUPS server also runs on the client, ok I will try through this now.  thanks
[15:45] <Lucak> I was following this tut edbian: http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/04/upgrading-ubuntu-from-the-command-line.html
[15:45] <aeon-ltd> wrtpeeps_: add a & at the end
[15:45] <rumpe1> wrtpeeps_, there are many ways. One of the easiest: "./program & disown"
[15:45] <aeon-ltd> wrtpeeps_: e.g. 'nameofapp &' that will background it
[15:45] <dr_willis> blip99,  at least int eh past my cups machines basically saw each other and set themeslef up for the most part.
[15:45] <dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  you may want to get in the habbit of using the 'exit' command to close a terminal and not the close button.
[15:45] <rumpe1> aeon-ltd, that won't work
[15:46] <edbian> Lucak: Say my name when talking to me or I'll miss it! :P
[15:46] <wrtpeeps_> excellent
[15:46] <wrtpeeps_> the & worked
[15:46] <wrtpeeps_> cheers!
[15:46] <beli> wrtpeeps_: read about      nohup           also
[15:46] <dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  using che close button may still kjill the app.
[15:46]  * sipior waits for him to close the terminal...
[15:47] <lucidguy> Anyone work in an environment with 20TB+ worth of storage... and a backup procedure for it.
[15:47] <wrtpeeps_> 15:46 < dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  using che close button may still kjill the app.
[15:47] <wrtpeeps_> when i used the & the terminal closed
[15:47] <wrtpeeps_> thing is still running though
[15:47] <wrtpeeps_> so _appears_ to have worked
[15:47] <dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  i think we missed somting.. :)   & diosent close the terminal. it just backgrounds the app...
[15:47] <Lucak> edbian:  I was following this tut edbian: http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/04/upgrading-ubuntu-from-the-command-line.html
[15:47] <beli> wrtpeeps_: there is still a difference.......to be safe use the nohup command
[15:48] <dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  it may also depend on the app.
[15:48] <edbian> Lucak: Ahh, I see the problem.  jaunty is no longer supported (its support ended on October 2010)  Additionally 9.10 was supported until april 2011 (which we are past)
[15:48] <dr_willis> wrtpeeps_,  check out 'bash job controll '   some time.
[15:48] <geirha> beli: Well, disown should suffice.
[15:48] <beli> geirha: right, same
[15:48] <edbian> Lucak: So you have to grab the CD for 10.04 (or 11.04) and install a new
[15:48] <edbian> Lucak: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Ubuntu_9.04_.28Jaunty_Jackalope.29
[15:49] <coz_> Lucak,  grab the alternate cd if you want to update from a cd
[15:49] <blip99> dr_willis: It got added nicely, instead of the browse I had to enter the URI manually http://nas_ip:631/printers/nasPrinter1.   thanks for the help :)
[15:49] <beli> geirha: only that disown is shell specific...
[15:49] <wrtpeeps_> thanks dr_willis and beli
[15:50] <geirha> beli: Sure, but bash is the default login shell in Ubuntu.
[15:50] <dr_willis> blip99,  for a pc - often cups only works if its on the local ip. :) you can set up where you can remote-web admin cups on all the pcs
[15:51] <dr_willis> cups is one of those complex things.. that linux handles so well. :) and so overlooked.. untill somthing breaks..
[15:51] <|flyte|> where can I download a .zip of the iso for ubuntu-11.04-server?
[15:52] <dr_willis> |flyte|,  why do you need it ziped?
[15:52] <|flyte|> dr_willis, IT is blocking downloads of .iso's
[15:52] <dr_willis> its not going to compress much  - if any
[15:52] <|flyte|> dr_willis, I'm hoping a .zip may allow me to download.
[15:52] <donkeyinspace> ohir , can i use gparted to create that 256mb boot partition?
[15:52] <dr_willis> theres no official places that ive seen |flyte|
[15:52] <beli> geirha: correct, but.....nohup is in coreutils and on all systems i know in the default installation even if bash isnt used as default shell
[15:52] <|flyte|> dr_willis, or do you know where I can download the iso via ftp? all of the mirrors don't host the iso, but rather a torrent to the iso
[15:53] <jenk> Which do I install ? Deluge or qBittorrent ?
[15:53] <Sidewinder1> |flyte|, I don't thinh there is a "zip" format as the iso is already compressed.
[15:53] <dr_willis> there should be some ftp suites that have it |flyte|  but id have to just go check the mirror listings
[15:53] <ubuntunoob> i need some help
[15:53] <coz_> jenk,   isnt transmission already installed?
[15:53] <Sidewinder1> Think, even.
[15:53] <dr_willis> jenk,  why do you need either one?
[15:53] <Sidewinder1> !ask ubuntunoob
[15:53] <jenk> coz_, Ya, it is... but I'm looking for another option.
[15:53] <dr_willis> !torrents

[15:54] <dr_willis> jenk,  install both - or a dozen of them...
[15:54] <ubuntunoob> my eMac's cd drive wont stay open and it won't mount cd's either
[15:54] <coz_> jenk,   well  I have tried many and I like transmission,, with a few settings changes in preferences it is quick and easy
[15:54] <dr_willis> ktorrent , :)  utorrent ports. dozens of torrent clients
[15:54] <|flyte|> I can't use totrrents
[15:54] <dr_willis> transmission has gotten quiet good.
[15:54] <Lucak> edbian so what should I do
[15:54] <zaksoldier> !u
[15:54] <jpds> mascarijunior: http://www.canonical.com/about-canonical/contact
[15:54] <|flyte|> which ftp has the iso itself?
[15:55] <Sidewinder1> jenk, Also have a look at azureus aka Vuze.
[15:55] <jenk> dr_willis, I wanted to give libtorrent-rasterbar a try and both use it. So, which one ?
[15:55] <edbian> Lucak: I told you.  Grab the CD from the site for 10.04 (last LTS) or 11.04 and reinstall.  I think somebody said you can upgrade from an alternative CD
[15:55] <dr_willis> jenk,  no idea.
[15:55] <jenk> Sidewinder1, Umm, no, I find that too heavy...
[15:55] <dr_willis> jenk,  instaklk both..
[15:55] <coz_> jenk,   eenie,, meenie,, minee,,moe
[15:55] <Lucak> but I have not a cd
[15:55] <Lucak> I can acces just with ssh
[15:55] <jenk> dr_willis, Thanks though !
[15:55] <ubuntunoob> !ask
[15:55] <dr_willis> Youi could allready have them both installed in the time it took tio ask. :)
[15:55] <webpower> hi all
[15:55] <Sidewinder1> jenk, Absolutely, it is; but has many, many configuration options.
[15:56] <|flyte|> !ftp
[15:56] <webpower> how to install ubuntu from a pen drive?
[15:56] <jenk> coz_, :)
[15:56] <dr_willis> webpower,  you got the iso in the pendrive yet?
[15:56] <coz_> jenk,  you understand then :)  cool,,  install them all,, test them,, remove the ones you dont like
[15:56] <jenk> Sidewinder1, I like the idea of configurability but not at the expense of system resources.
[15:57] <webpower> dr_willis, i want to create a bootable install usb pen drive
[15:57] <Sidewinder1> Leave it to coz_ to come up with the "best" answer... :-)
[15:57] <webpower> i must install ubuntu on a netbook
[15:57] <brainard52> Hey, I need some help. I think it would be a little messy to give all the info in the main chat, so is anybody familiar with QT creator?
[15:57] <yoshx> hello i want to use a bash mail with authentification. Does anyone know how to do that ?
[15:57] <dr_willis> webpower,   use  some of the tools from the pendrivelinux web site. to get the iso onto a pendrive
[15:57] <jenk> coz_, I use Transmission currently, but it doesn't hurt to experiment. Thought I'd get a few ideas from people in the know...
[15:57] <coz_> jenk,  when testing these ,, make sure you pay attention to cpu useage,, memory  etc,, choose the most efficient one
[15:58] <Sidewinder1> jenk, Simply, that's the one I use; on a machine that's over 8 years old...
[15:58] <ubuntunoob> my eMac's cd drive wont stay closed and it won't mount cd's is there a fix
[15:58] <Sidewinder1> !pastebin > brainard52
[15:58] <WXZ> whenever I open up a .sln file, the default application is monodevelop
[15:58] <WXZ> but monodevelop doesn't open it, just the default screen comes up
[15:59] <brainard52> thanks.
[15:59] <Sidewinder1> welks.
[15:59] <nophone> hello
[15:59] <nophone> thanks for the help earlier
[15:59] <jenk> coz_, Yes, I'll be doing that. Is there any app that clocks system resources for a particular program ? Else, I do it manually.
[15:59] <nophone> aparently the nvidia driver needed to be set back to the non official version of the driver
[15:59] <nophone> screen looks great now
[16:00] <jenk> Sidewinder1, That's interesting, I'll give it a go then...
[16:00] <nophone> question: how do i turn off the key chain?
[16:00] <coz_> jenk,  last time I tried  Vuze it  s hot up cpu  not sure if that is fixed
[16:00] <donkeyinspace> ohir , can i use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CreateBootPartitionAfterInstall as a guide to do it?
[16:00] <ubuntunoob> wow nearly 1600 people in this channel and nobody answers me *rolls eyes*
[16:00] <kle77> Hey guys, is it possible to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.10, or should I just do a fresh install?
[16:00] <EgyParadox> kle77 you should upgrade to 10.04 first
[16:00] <nophone> kle77, i'm not sure, but i was talking about doing the same thing earlier and was warned that it might not work
[16:00] <Lucak> edbian: I can acces just with ssh
[16:00] <Pici> !patience | ubuntunoob
[16:01] <edbian> Lucak: I don't know of a way then :(
[16:01] <Sidewinder1> jenk, I'd give you the specs on my machine but it would be not only OT, but also down-right embarrassing. :-)
[16:01] <kle77> yeah, i'd be skeptical it would work. I may just do a fresh install
[16:01] <jenk> coz_, Yes, I've used it before but Sidewinder1 gives a very favourable opinion, so I'll check it again...
[16:01] <mark_scz> is there anyway to have infinite history size?
[16:01] <EgyParadox> !upgrade > kle77
[16:01] <kle77> two consecutive upgrades doesn't sound fun
[16:01] <ubuntunoob> ubottu i did several times
[16:01] <mark_scz> i don't want to ever truncate my .bash_history
[16:01] <coz_> jenk,  excellent,, that's the spirit,,
[16:01] <brainard52> sidewinder, pm
[16:01] <WXZ> whenever I open up an .sln with monodevelop doesn't open it
[16:01] <WXZ> it just opens the default screen
[16:02] <nophone> does anybody know how to turn off the keychain thing? every time i start up my computer i have to type in a password so that my wireless connects. frankly on this computer i'm trying to minimise security so that it can be used by anyone who comes over
[16:02] <nophone> i'm looking through the passwords and encryption keys control pannel but ...?
[16:03] <sarit> nophone: you can set the keychain password the same as your account password
[16:03] <nophone> i must be missing something
[16:03] <jenk> nophone, I think you can set it to use your login password to unlock....
[16:03] <ohir> donkeyinspace: you may try
[16:03] <pksadiq> !keyring
[16:03] <kle77> EgyParadox: yes, I was reading that before I came here. It only mentions single-step upgrades (e.g. 9.10->10.04), at least in my case
[16:03] <jenk> nophone, It'll unlock your keychain with your login password.
[16:03] <nophone> i have it set to the login password
[16:03] <brainard52> http://paste.ubuntu.com/630849/
[16:03] <ohir> donkeyinspace: sounds reasonable though I think that relocating your install on pen drive may take more time than fresh reinstall
[16:04] <nophone> i just wanna turn keyring off
[16:04] <ohir> donkeyinspace: I'd suggest you to try first with i.e. smaller pen and basic server instalation if your bios will start such hdd-disk on pen
[16:04] <Kingsy> is there a way to change a users username? I don't want to remove it add re add cos it removes its home directory with the user..
[16:05] <brainard52> oh wait, hold on.
[16:05] <jenk> nophone, Don't do that. It's required by some applications for eg, TweetDeck
[16:05] <donkeyinspace> ohir , what do you mean by relocating my install?
[16:05] <ohir> donkeyinspace: while install you need to manually partition. your first physical partition on said pen should be mounted at /boot
[16:06] <pksadiq> Kingsy: System>admini..>users and groups
[16:06] <nophone> is there some way to set it up so that i can choose to have my wireless connect automatically without being grouped in wiht my keychain?
[16:06] <ohir> donkeyinspace: if I am right your bios expects bootable vfat partition at the very beginning of pen
[16:07] <nophone> brb
[16:07] <nophone> logging out and back in
[16:07] <donkeyinspace> ohir , is it possible to choose the mount point with gparted?
[16:07] <ohir> donkeyinspace: if you already installed defaults you have there either swap or /
[16:09] <ohir> donkeyinspace: I do not know, I used it long time ago. I do use cli tools (fdisk i.e.)
[16:09] <donkeyinspace> ohir , not sure if im going to be able to do such thing but im appreciated for your time
[16:09] <kahen> anyone still on Lucid that's using the Firefox stable PPA and just got an update-manager prompt to "upgrade" to firefox 3.5?
[16:09] <ohir> donkeyinspace: though you certainly can set mountpoints in install's gui partmanager
[16:09] <Kyokan> Could somebody please help me fix my disk?  I think my file system is corrupted or I may have a superblock
[16:11] <kahen> i'm of course talking about this one: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable
[16:11] <ohir> donkeyinspace: for install you should have /boot 256MB vfat and rest is / that will default to ext3 on 10.4
[16:11] <nophone> ah okay i figured it out
[16:11] <nophone> there's a checkbox on the bottom of the network options that says "Unlock for everybody"
[16:12] <nophone> quick survey: what irc client are yall using?
[16:12] <donkeyinspace> ohir , and after that make some editing in the files, am i right?
[16:12] <aristidesfl> hello dear ubuntuers
[16:12] <pksadiq> nophone: most one is irssi, I think ;)
[16:13] <aristidesfl> trying to configure WPA2 wireless using the command line on 11.04
[16:13] <nophone> i'm trying out xchat atm
[16:13] <nophone> i used to use bitchx back in the day
[16:13] <aristidesfl> problem: cat: /var/run/wpa_supplicant.wlan0.pid: No such file or directory
[16:13] <Pici> nophone: irssi is similar to bitchx.
[16:14] <nophone> terminal based gotchu
[16:14] <Kyokan> Is anyone able to help me, please?
[16:14] <nophone> danke thanks pici
[16:14] <coz_> nophone,  I have been using xchat for years ,, way back on BeOs,, this is also why i use transmission,, since that started on BeOs  and was ported to linux,, not xchat though,, but still I find it easy maybe only because I have used it so long :)
[16:15] <aristidesfl> here is my /etc/network/interfaces: http://pastie.org/2106744
[16:16] <aristidesfl> restarting networking says this:
[16:16] <aristidesfl>  * Running /etc/init.d/networking restart is deprecated because it may not enable again some interfaces
[16:16] <aristidesfl>  * Reconfiguring network interfaces...                                                                 cat: /var/run/wpa_supplicant.wlan0.pid: No such file or directory

[16:16] <FloodBot1> aristidesfl: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:16] <nophone> okay cool irssi :)
[16:16] <nophone> i need to learn now to write scripts again :)
[16:17] <aristidesfl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/630853/ and  http://pastie.org/2106744 please heeelp
[16:18] <donkeyinspace> ohir , is it enough creating those 2 partitions or do i have to do some file editing after?
[16:18] <Kyokan> When is the best time to find someone available to help here, does anyone know?
[16:19] <nophone> Kyokan: depends on where you are in the world i suppsoe
[16:19] <Kyokan> London
[16:19] <Kyokan> nophone:  sorry I am in London
[16:19] <m1chael> i upgraded my ubuntu, and my screen is flickering/black, i drag the mousse around and click, and things become kind of visible, it's very random and weird.. i dont know what to do to fix this.. it's a dual boot with windows xp...
[16:19] <nophone> Kyokan: i'm in korea
[16:19] <nophone> :)
[16:19] <nophone> ching chong wing wong
[16:20] <nophone> i'm not wizzard though
[16:20] <Kyokan> nophone: oh gosh OK so how many hours from now?  I can come back later when there are more people available to help
[16:21] <nophone> i think earlier today
[16:21] <nophone> like 6 hours ago i had alot of ppl tackling the questions i was asking
[16:21] <nophone> what are you trying to do anyways?
[16:21] <coz_>  guys I have to break here,,, be back later
[16:21] <Kyokan> nophone:  I think my file system is corrupt and ty for your help :)
[16:21] <nophone> Kyokan: what have you tried?
[16:22] <Kyokan> not very much as I don't know what I am doing
[16:22] <oskar-> hi, i have ubuntu natty, upgraded step by step from karmic. everything is working fine, but i am missing the ~/.gvfs mount, that once was there iirc. now it's only a plain, empty directory. does it matter, that my home is on nfs4? any hints how I can activate it again?
[16:22] <WXZ> how come monodevelop doesn't open solutions on double click?
[16:22] <nophone> do you think it's the file system or that there are bad sectors on the drive?
[16:22] <Kyokan> nophone: i ran fsck from a terminal and got stuck there
[16:22] <Kyokan> nophone: could be a bad sector or superblock
[16:23] <nophone> you could look for a program called spinrite
[16:23] <nophone> you boot up from the disk
[16:23] <sipior> Kyokan: what's the precise error that fsck reports?
[16:23] <nophone> if it's a disk sector that can be recovered it will do it
[16:23] <Kyokan> nophone:  I can only boot from live cd
[16:24] <nophone> Kyokan: you could mount it to a thumb drive and boot from there. i didn't realise you were in such dire straights
[16:24] <sipior> Kyokan: also, what led you to run fsck on the volume?
[16:25] <Kyokan> sipior:  someone on here told me to run fsck
[16:25] <sipior> Kyokan: but what was the original problem?
[16:26] <Kyokan> sipior:  I returned to a crashed computer and have been unable to restart.  I believe the file system is corrupted or else I may have a superblock
[16:26] <arooni-mobile> what is the generally accepted best solution for widgets on 11.04 (and a widget layer so i can can show/hide on command)
[16:26] <sipior> Kyokan: so, you rebooted from the live cd, ran fsck, and got what error?
[16:26] <sipior> Kyokan: and do you remember the error which is keeping the machine from booting?
[16:27] <bsxU> Hello, I'm new to Natty from 10.04 and I'm having problems installing mx5000tools to control my wireless keyboard lcd.  the configure script is giving me an error "No package 'glib-2.0' found" I know that is wrong.
[16:27] <Kyokan> sipior:  the message I get now is that the resource is busy or mounted or opened exclusively by another program
[16:28] <Kyokan> sipior:  which is different from before.
[16:28] <sipior> Kyokan: in response to what command?
[16:28] <Kyokan> sipior: sudo fsck /dev/sdb1
[16:28] <sipior> Kyokan: and is the volume indeed mounted?
[16:29] <Kyokan> sipior:  I do not believe the disk is mounted
[16:29] <sipior> Kyokan: does the output of "df" agree with your beliefs? :-)
[16:30] <Kyokan> sipior:  I found the original message:  error reading block  (attempt  to read block from filesystem resulted in short read)  Ignore error <y>?
[16:31] <Kyokan> sipior:  what does df mean?
[16:31] <sipior> Kyokan: and if you ignore the error, as it prompts you?
[16:31] <sipior> Kyokan: type "df" at a terminal.
[16:31] <Kyokan> sipior shall I type Y?
[16:31] <Kyokan> ok
[16:31] <sipior> Kyokan: look to see if /dev/sdb1 is listed.
[16:32] <Kyokan> sipior: it is not listed
[16:32] <sipior> Kyokan: that's good.
[16:32] <sipior> Kyokan: try ignoring the fsck error (it will be the first of many, i'm sure)
[16:32] <Kyokan> ok
[16:33] <Kyokan> force rewrite <y>?
[16:33] <sipior> Kyokan: you're booted from the live cd now, right?
[16:33] <flask-> is it possible to have a Project's files be located at an sftp:// path?
[16:33] <Kyokan> sipior: correct
[16:33] <bsxU> I'm new to 11.04 from 10.04 and I'm having problems installing mx5000tools to control my wireless keyboard lcd.  the configure script is giving me an error "configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 ) were not met: No package 'glib-2.0' found"  It gives me some info on pkg-config, but I'm not sure where to go with it.  Could anyone perhaps lead me towards a solution?
[16:33] <sipior> Kyokan: and you have backups of the /dev/sdb1 volume?
[16:34] <Kyokan> sipior: shall i force it to rewrite?  No back ups as far as I know\
[16:35] <sipior> Kyokan: well, up to you. probably okay, but do understand that fsck may lose some data in the process of fixing the filesystem.
[16:35] <Kyokan> sipior:  this hdd is merely a month or 2 old.  I would rather forsake my files for a working hdd
[16:35] <devilirium> Hello
[16:36] <Kyokan> sipior:  if I format the disk and reinstall from scratch, is that likely to fix the problem?
[16:36] <sipior> Kyokan: yes, but that's really the nuclear option. let fsck do what it can, and see where you end up.
[16:38] <Kyokan> sipior:  i forced rewrite and dev/sdb1:clean with x number of files
[16:38] <sipior> Kyokan: good! try mounting the volume.
[16:38] <Kyokan> should I try to boot now
[16:38] <Kyokan> OK
[16:38] <Kyokan> sipior:  can you please tell me the command to do that from a terminal?
[16:38] <sipior> Kyokan: sure. "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 <mountpoint>"
[16:39] <Kyokan> sipior:  thanks.  is mountpoint where I would add root?
[16:39] <sipior> Kyokan: try sticking it under "/mnt" for the time being.
[16:40] <sipior> Kyokan: or /media
[16:40] <rumpe1> ok
[16:41] <Kyokan> sipior:  can't find /dev/sdb1/mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[16:41] <sipior> Kyokan: "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media"
[16:41] <Kyokan> ok
[16:42] <Kyokan> sipior:  I am not sure whether it has done anything at all
[16:43] <sipior> Kyokan: is it listed when using df?
[16:43] <braadli> good evening!
[16:43] <sipior> Kyokan: or just "mount"
[16:43] <Kyokan> sipior: yes it is listed now
[16:43] <sipior> Kyokan: good, try rebooting.
[16:44] <Kyokan> sipior:  thank you so much for your help!  I am extremely grateful.  Hopefully I won't be back
[16:44] <sipior> Kyokan: no trouble. i hope so too :-)
[16:44] <Kyokan> thanks
[16:45] <roasted> If I'm using a Gnome 3 PPA, can I install Xubuntu-Desktop or will XFCE for some reason tank with me having Gnome 3 installed?
[16:46] <Sidewinder1> !gnome3 | roasted
[16:46] <roasted> Sidewinder1, that didn't answer my question.
[16:46] <s093294> Hello, i have a database question (any channels good for just that?) Someone might have a comment here aswell - I am to make a system that keeps information about ect all stadions in the world. Some information is logic that they all have, and then theres properly some stuff thats depended on country or other parameters. My question is then, would one create a new column for each time a new field is discovered, would it be better to have a field with xml
[16:46] <s093294>  data ?
[16:46] <mint_> when i mount a device i get the error .. mount: you must specify the fileszstem type!? whats this?
[16:47] <Pici> s093294: #sql perhaps
[16:47] <iceroot> mint_: normally you are mounting the wrong partiton (sdb instead of sdb1)
[16:47] <braadli> hi all - trying to mount a .mdf image using furius ISO Mount; all this creates is an empty folder (with the original image's filename as folder name, minus the extension)
[16:47] <Pici> roasted: Yes it does. the ppa is not supported, we don't know what sort of interactions it will have with your system.
[16:48] <braadli> df shows no changes after the so-called 'mount'
[16:48] <mold> hey what goin on?
[16:48] <Sidewinder1> Thanx, Pici
[16:48] <roasted> Pici, no, it did not answer my question. I understand gnome 3 is not supported, but I'm asking about the interactions with XFCE and 11.04, both officially supported.
[16:48] <roasted> Pici, if anything, perhaps I should ask in Xubuntu. Thanks anyway.
[16:49] <Sidewinder1> roasted, That may be the best place. :D
[16:49] <mold> i cant figure out how to set up my wifi connection so it works just in the terminal  i dont have to be in gnome
[16:49] <Pici> roasted: Installing xfce on a stock 11.04 install should not cause any problems. If the gnome3 ppa is installed, I have no idea if it will work or not.
[16:49] <roasted> Sidewinder1, my concern was how heavily based on gtk 2.0 xfce was.
[16:49] <braadli> ... (mount problem, continued) however, using MagicDisk in virtualbox, the image mounts absolutely fine in Win7 virtual.
[16:50] <mint_> iceroot: same error message
[16:50] <maddcrash> would anyone be available to help me with a mounting issue?
[16:50] <iceroot> mint_: sudo fdisk -l is showing you what partitons are there
[16:50] <Sidewinder1> roasted, I couldn't answer your specific question and was hopeing the links that ubottu provides might help you.
[16:50] <iceroot> mint_: also what type of filesystem is the stick using?
[16:51] <mint_> iceroot: but in gparted i see the partition and there is file syztem as unknown >*
[16:51] <iceroot> !ask | maddcrash
[16:51] <maddcrash> !ask
[16:51] <iceroot> mint_: is it formated?
[16:51] <iceroot> maddcrash: just ask your real question here
[16:51] <maddcrash> one moment let me go read the guidelines first before I piss someone off :)

[16:52] <roasted> Sidewinder1, I understand. It just seems to be the default answer in here to push people away elsewhere. It gets a little tiring, hence my reaction. :P
[16:52] <iceroot> mint_: or sdc3 but not sdc1

[16:54] <maddcrash> I do not know how to "mount" some disk space on this Ubunto box I set up ( a FoG server ).  I have the disk space available on a FreeNAS box.  I can see the disk space via Network folder, but I dont know how to mount it.
[16:54] <WXZ> how come monodevelop doesn't open up .sln files on double click?
[16:54] <edbian> arooni-mobile: compiz and screenlets or compiz and desklets
[16:54] <iceroot> mint_: and what filesystem is sdc5/6?
[16:54] <arooni-mobile> edbian, whats better; screenlets or desklets
[16:55] <mint_> i think ext3 or ext4 .. but dont know :)
[16:55] <edbian> arooni-mobile: IDK.  Haven't used them in a couple years.  I don't remember which was which but one was more evolved back then
[16:56] <mint_> iceroot: i think ext3 or ext4 .. but dont know :)

[16:57] <braadli> hi - an mdf image that mounts fine under virtualbox Win7 guest (MagicISO) is not mounting under the Ubuntu 11.04 host; using Furius ISO Mount; all that is created is an empty folder in the home directory
[16:57] <maddcrash> how can i find the path to the network drive that is mounted?
[16:58] <iceroot> maddcrash: mount or df
[16:58] <WXZ> I can't open a file with the default application, it just opens the application but not the file
[16:59] <henington> would a network share show up there too?
[16:59] <henington> in places i can see the mount, browse to it etc... but i dont know where the actual path is to plug into a server app.
[17:00] <iceroot> henington: if it is mounted (nfs, cifs) yes
[17:00] <henington> i think its mounted?  It has the little eject icon symbol next to it ?
[17:00] <arooni-mobile> is there a way to change terminal so that paste/copy is control v and not control + shift + v
[17:01] <edbian> henington: To see what is mounted look at mount or df -h
[17:01] <edbian> arooni-mobile: Edit -> keyboard shortcuts

[17:02] <newbie01> I have a file Music with the permissions drwxrwxr-x 2 root music 4096 2011-06-22 16:35 /usr/local/share/Music, I try to make a file called test by  > /usr/local/share/Music/test but I get bash: /usr/local/share/Music/test: Permission denied    why?
[17:02] <edbian> newbie01: You are not the user 'music' and you are not in the group 'music' so you cannot write in there
[17:02] <henington> i see a bunch of stuff under Mount...  im not sure how to find out which is the right one
[17:02] <newbie01> edbian, music is a group
[17:03] <henington> type would be nfsd ?
[17:03] <edbian> newbie01: there is a music group and a music user on your system
[17:03] <edbian> newbie01: oops.  I read wrong
[17:03] <arooni-mobile> edbian, awesome!
[17:03] <edbian> newbie01: sorry, they are owned by root (not you) and the group music (which you aren't in) so you can't write in those files
[17:03] <edbian> arooni-mobile: sure
[17:03] <edbian> arooni-mobile: I change that right away as well

[17:07] <timmyraaar> hi guys - running 10.10 64 bit... my laptop has an i5 @ 2.3ghz and intel HD 3000 GPU... any idea why it looks like  i have no 2D acceleration ?
[17:08] <sarthor> Hi. I can use my wlan only with command iwconfig wlan1 essid "SSID of ACCESS POINT", my network manager can not see my wlan, how to make network manager to see wlan and show other APs or Netwroks...
[17:09] <arooni-mobile> how can i add a few items to the panel in 11.04 that i am missing as compared to 10.04; 1) weather applet 2) perf monitor 3) countdown timers 4) workrave applet
[17:09] <evcharger> hi there. I am attempting to run a python script at boot using an init.d script. I am running into some issues - any help?
[17:09] <edbian> sarthor: remove any references to wlan0 from /etc/network/interfaces
[17:10] <sarthor> edbian: my interfaces file have only "auto lo
[17:10] <sarthor> iface lo inet loopback
[17:10] <sarthor> "
[17:10] <RawChid> sarthor, interesting. I had the same. Are you sure the GUI is looking at wlan1  (and not wlan0)
[17:10] <edbian> sarthor: mmm, I'm not sure than
[17:11] <sarthor> RawChid: yes it is wlan1
[17:11] <RawChid> I want to connect to an AP using wpa_supplicant in CLI. I made a config file and it seems to connect (no errors and I get an IPv6 addres).
[17:12] <RawChid> But in GUI wireless stills looks disabled
[17:12] <RawChid> And I cannot connect to internet. Any ideas?
[17:13] <RawChid> By GUI I mean the gnome network applet
[17:13] <sarthor> what if i delete all the entries. from /etc/udev/rules.d/70_netwro.....net... file
[17:13] <sarthor> /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[17:13] <sarthor> even i removed netwrok-manager and reinstalled. but no success.
[17:14] <RawChid> sarthor, I'm not sure if it helps. But did you try to (re)start networking and/or wireless?
[17:15] <trelayne> Hey all, Is there a portable USB version that I can install to? So that it run like it was installed on a HD?
[17:15] <arooni-mobile> when scrolling fast on chrome with my t420 (intel 3000) sometimes i see graphical renderiung errors
[17:15] <webczat> Hey, how do you install python bindings for gobject for python3?
[17:15] <sarthor> RawChid: Yes. several time.. i wil be back. that what will be the result
[17:16] <RawChid> Just another suggestion. Try the wicd and wicd-gtk
[17:16] <EgyParadox> !usb-creator
[17:16] <RawChid> Don't think that is a solution though
[17:16] <trelayne> !usb-creator
[17:17] <RawChid> sarthor, I think we have both the same problem
[17:17] <trelayne> A friend wants to be able to run ubuntu from USB
[17:17] <RawChid> I see all the AP's when doing: iwlist scan
[17:17] <EgyParadox> trelayne: You can install Ubuntu on a usb disk using startup disk creator
[17:18] <EgyParadox> sudo apt-get instal usb-creator-gtk
[17:18] <RawChid> trelayne: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+usb+disk
[17:18] <EgyParadox> install*
[17:18] <trelayne> EgyParadox,  yes I know but that only creates a generic one that doesn't save data
[17:18] <RawChid> Look on persisten USB trelayne
[17:18] <RawChid> persistent*
[17:19] <trelayne> ok thanks
[17:19] <EgyParadox> Im not sure if supports persistent mode or not I
[17:19] <RawChid> Yes, you can have an persistent install on USB
[17:20] <sarthor> RawChid: no success. while it is showing wlan0 now. but my GUI network-manger can not see my wlan still.
[17:22] <sarthor> my network manager can not see my wlan0. i am compel to connect to wireless netwrok only via terminal command. HELP
[17:22] <RawChid> sarthor, what is your problem? Is connecting via CLI not working?
[17:24] <sarthor> RawChid: i can connect in command line. just i can not see other network.
[17:24] <sarthor> and network-manager says. device is not ready.
[17:24] <sarthor> while i am using internet.
[17:24] <sarthor> with that device.
[17:24] <sarthor> Network-manager is lier
[17:25] <RawChid> You tried iwlist scan?
[17:25] <Pici> !enter | sarthor
[17:25] <RawChid> i.e. does that gives you a list of networks?
[17:26] <x29a> hi there, im using 10.04.2, and an usb single touch touchscreen, am i supposed to use the evdev or the evtouch driver? whats the diff and how to tell?
[17:26] <Poindexter_> I did an apt-get install php4      and got an error message that it is not supported. Why? Php5 is not backwards compatible. What is the story with this?
[17:27] <sarthor> it is not giving the list of network. Pici ubottu said something. but i really did not understand. if they said pressing Enter key. so i am not pressing. but for sending msg i have to press that button
[17:27] <x29a> PointyPumper: why on earth would one want to install php4?
[17:28] <Pici> sarthor: stop pressing enter between every 3 words, it makes it very hard to read the channel.
[17:28] <EgyParadox> sarthor: It means that you should type everything once
[17:28] <RawChid> sarthor, it means that you can make longer sentences. Just like I'm doing now. Not press enter after a few words...
[17:29] <x29a> Poindexter_: maybe there is a ppa with current builds for php4
[17:29] <sarthor> Pici: EgyParadox very right. now i understand better. I will be careful about this, Inshallah.
[17:29] <RawChid> sarthor, so even iwlist isn't giving you a list. Sorry, I've no idea further
[17:30] <Poindexter_> X29a what does that mean?
[17:30] <x29a> Poindexter_: search for PPA php4
[17:31] <Poindexter_> Does it mean I need to apt-get apache2 with a php4 build?
[17:31] <jyooruje> anyone here use cvlc?
[17:32] <Poindexter_> Otherwise it means apt-get uninstall or remove the old apache2 and purge the files.
[17:32] <RawChid> Poindexter_: you're talking about PHP, not apache. So apache can stay
[17:32] <windparadise> ok, what i am doing now is , cd /httpdocs
[17:32] <windparadise> how do I compress all files in the current location I am in?
[17:32] <Poindexter_> RawChid thanks for that lead. I was sweating over this.
[17:33] <windparadise> since conpressing the httpdocs folder is giving me permission denied error?
[17:33] <RawChid> php4 is not in the repositories of current Ubuntu versions (which do you have?).  So try to look for an PPA archive
[17:33] <blink> what do you all use to manage multiple hosts on a LAN/WAN? puppetmaster seems to be a little clunky, and CFEngine is just not for me.
[17:33] <Poindexter_> There are some applications I would like to use with php4 but it not supported anymore.. Can I force Ubuntu to apt-get php4 anyways?
[17:34] <Poindexter_> Oh I forgot to explain that I Upgraded the kernel of Xubuntu. That may be the reason why.
[17:34]  * RawChid got to go, bye
[17:35] <Poindexter_> I would hate to retrogress and revert back to the older version of Xubuntu just to use php4.
[17:36] <windparadise> any answer ?
[17:38] <strombo> salut tt le monde
[17:38] <Goliath> i need help
[17:38] <Goliath> i am now under kubuntu livedvd, download gentoo iso to burn. can i load k3b, eject the kubuntu dvd and insert the empty dvd to burn? or some files would be missing?
[17:39] <OerHeks> windparadise, tar -czpf /home/me/somefile.tar.gz /path/to/files/to/be/archived  >>  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[17:39] <popey> Goliath: doubt you'll be able to eject the DVD
[17:39] <popey> Goliath: it will be locked
[17:39] <Stava> How can I run a commentary track MP3 alongside the video (with video sound) in ubuntus default movie player (or vlc)?
[17:39] <Goliath> popey: it isnt locked
[17:39] <popey> Goliath: so what happens when you eject it?
[17:40] <Goliath> popey: the system continues from ram
[17:40] <windparadise> what about finding the size of the current file ?
[17:40] <popey> Goliath: so why ask if you know what happens?
[17:41] <genii-around> Goliath: I also offered you an alternative in #kubuntu, please don't post the same question in multiple channels
[17:41] <clcto> windparadise: ls -l
[17:41] <windparadise> ok
[17:42] <Pici> windparadise: ls -lh will be more readable.
[17:42] <Sidewinder1> windparadise, It's probably not a good idea to change permissions on anything in your root directory (if that's where your httpdocs dir is located) regarding the compression, type in terminal man tar.
[17:42] <donkeyinspace> ohir , are you there? about the 256mb boot partition and stuff... is it enough to create those 2 partitions or do i have to make some file editing after that?
[17:43] <Goliath> !find k3b-i38n
[17:43] <clcto> Sidewinder1: tar isnt compression
[17:43] <Goliath> !find k3b-i36n
[17:43] <windparadise> ok
[17:43] <Goliath> how was that package
[17:43] <popey> Goliath: i18n probably
[17:43] <popey> Goliath: http://packages.ubuntu.com/k3b-i18n
[17:44] <Goliath> !find k3b-i18n
[17:44] <IdleOne> !msgthebot
[17:44] <Goliath> hey
[17:45] <Goliath> the livecd isnt locked on my system. i can eject it and still function on loaded apps from the ram
[17:45] <Goliath> is this normal?
[17:45] <demonspork> do the Nvidia drivers for Linux support monitor rotation yet?
[17:46] <demonspork> Goliath, yes
[17:46] <Sidewinder1> clcto, So it doesn't compress at all? I'm just asking 'cause I always assumed that it did.
[17:46] <clcto> nope, just wraps it up. then you use gz or bz2 or whatever. thats why you always see tar.gz
[17:47] <iridium> Goliath, as long you don't try to launch something new, yes
[17:47] <Sidewinder1> clcto, I never really tested it though; guess that's what happens when I "assume". :-)
[17:47] <clcto> Sidewinder1: but tar can do that for you ... one of the options
[17:47] <Pantsu> Sidewinder1: you can tell it to compress the tarball with whatever you want
[17:47] <Sidewinder1> Thanx guys/gals.
[17:48] <Pantsu> I prefer xz most of the time
[17:49] <Poindexter_> Is everything programmed with php4 totally not compatible with php5?
[17:49] <Pantsu> no
[17:49] <Pantsu> but most are
[17:49] <Pantsu> (as in won't work)
[17:50] <Poindexter_> Pantsu so I should take the risk of installing php5 and testing if there is a compatiblity with php4?
[17:50] <Pantsu> Poindexter_: upgrade/fix anything you have that only works on php4
[17:51] <tivkom> .
[17:51] <Poindexter_> Pantsu I tried to apt-get install php4 and the error is not supported.
[17:52] <Poindexter_> I upgraded my Xubuntu kernel and that may have a difference.
[17:52] <blink> does anybody here work in IT?
[17:52] <demonspork> blink, probably a lot of us, just ask your question and see if it can be answered
[17:52] <oCean> blink: chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:53] <iridium> Poindexter_, try: apt-cache search php4
[17:53] <blink> I did, nobody answered
[17:53] <blink> looking for alternatives to puppet & cfengine
[17:53] <iridium> if there's something about php4 in there repositories there will appear
[17:53] <oCean> blink: have you tried asking in #ubuntu-server?
[17:54] <demonspork> blink, by manage, what are the goals you are looking to accomplish?
[17:54] <blink> just firing off commands, grabbing/centralizing output
[17:54] <Poindexter_> Iridium this is the response:   cakephp - MVC rapid application development framework for PHP

[17:54] <JamesJRH> Hi. I'm booting off a LiveCD to try to fix my other Ubuntu laptop. For some reason the LiveCD tries to mount the bad partition which fails and creates an uninterruptible process. This blocks all other utilities from accessing the partition. How do I boot the LiveCD so that it does not touch the bad partition until I want it to?
[17:55] <demonspork> blink, I generally use public/private key pairs and set up a series of links on my desktop that launch putty or terminal sessions that connect via SSH to the other computers as needed and I can run commands on them
[17:55] <iridium> Poindexter_, that seems to be a front-end to develop, you might be out of luck with the standard repos
[17:56] <Sidewinder1> JamesJRH, Have you set your BIOS to boot to the cd/dvd drive FIRST?
[17:56] <demonspork> blink, you can also write batch scripts to do use SSH to execute commands on other computers
[17:56] <JamesJRH> Sidewinder1: Yes.
[17:56] <zambaboo> hey guys i need to build a deb package that doesnt compile anything but simply copies binaries to usr/local/bin - what guide should i read?
[17:56] <SpiLoT> I've 2 partitions, C and D. C being Windows 7... I've recently installed Ubuntu via Windows 7 on the D partition.  Now I can't view the 'root files' on D however when I switch to Windows 7 I can clearly see everything in place in D. I've tried to access the folder 'root' in Ubuntu, but it gave me 'You dont have the permissions... bla bla bla"
[17:56] <Poindexter_> Iridium thanks. I thought I was up a dead end street.
[17:56] <SpiLoT> I want to be able to view the root files on the D using Ubuntu.
[17:56] <zambaboo> SpiLoT, you need to be root
[17:56] <demonspork> blink, I have set up an environment where I used crontab to execute scripts that would go out and update and perform various tasks on several servers on a regular basis, simplified me having to set up those scripts on all of the servers, I just did it on one of them
[17:56] <windparadise> hello, pls i made zip fast.zip */*/* it only zipped files from 2 level directories
[17:56] <zambaboo> SpiLoT, and why do you want that?>
[17:57] <windparadise> how do I compress all files and contentts from the current directory?
[17:57] <hjax> any reason why i cant make flash work?
[17:57] <newbeee> Spilot I face that problem too
[17:57] <zambaboo> windparadise, tar czf filename.tar /path/to.dir
[17:57] <newbeee> I think I have a temporary fix for that
[17:57] <ZykoticK9_> SpiLoT, FYI windows can't ready EXT3/4 partitions
[17:57] <EgyParadox> !tar
[17:57] <Sidewinder1> zambaboo, He doesn't need to be root to "view" them, does he?
[17:57] <newbeee> Zykotick he cant view d in ubuntu not in windows
[17:57] <hjax> i downloaded ubuntu restricted extras, and flash wont run in chromium or firefox
[17:58] <JamesJRH> I know options can be given if I press F6. How do I boot to a low runlevel such as 1?
[17:58] <ZykoticK9_> newbeee, he's asking to view the / partition... isn't he/she?
[17:58] <SpiLoT> Zykotick9_ The partition is the same one that Ubuntu is installed on... I... argh, for example, D has a folder called 'Movies' in the root, when I switch to Ubuntu, I can't view the folder (can't litrally see it) but rather just see the usual Ubuntu files (root... home...etc)
[17:58] <windparadise> zambaboo, I am compressing contents of the httpdocs folder
[17:58] <windparadise> and I am currently in that folder
[17:59] <szal> SpiLoT, newbeee: that is because the Wubi installation is a type of virtual machine, iow, a system within the system, and by default, a system cannot view what's outside of it
[17:59] <windparadise> so how do i compress all contents inside the contents I am in?
[17:59] <hjax> chrome says flash is out of date, and adobe says that chrome should update itself, :/
[17:59] <newbeee> No he is talking about a wubi installation in which he cant view the directory in which he installed ubuntu using ubuntu
[17:59] <JamesJRH> In Grub I think I append ' 1' to the kernel line but that doesn't work on the CD.
[17:59] <demonspork> SpiLoT, you haven't mounted your full partition, your Ubuntu is a virtual hard disk, so when Ubuntu launches its / is actually just a smaller subsection of the actual partition
[17:59] <ZykoticK9_> SpiLoT, newbeee oh sorry - Wubi!  I have no comment/suggestions then.
[18:00] <SpiLoT> demonspork: So argh... well that makes sense.
[18:00] <newbeee> But SpiLoT there is a place where you mount hard drives.There you can mount the hard drive and then use.But need to do always
[18:00] <Poindexter_> Iridium I used this command:  lsb_release -a    Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS Release:        10.04 Codename:       lucid a   I got this as a response
[18:00] <hjax> can anyone help me?
[18:00] <Sidewinder1> !wubi > SpiLoT
[18:00] <nimbiotics> is there a channel for urban terror??
[18:00] <demonspork> SpiLoT, you can probably see the actual hard disk in "Places" and clicking on it should mount it. Natty includes write support for NTFS out of the box last I checked
[18:01] <newbeee> SpiLoT go to disk utility is D shown there?
[18:01] <newbeee> demonpork I dont think that will be shown in that menu
[18:01] <Sidewinder1> demonspork, Thank god for you; someone who's actually familiar with wubi. :-)
[18:02] <SpiLoT> newbee: Nope o_o. Just 500GB and 21GB files (root.disk)
[18:02] <fowlduck> We have an Intel Xeon E5645 and we're not seeing the 2 threads per core in lscpu, despite the processor being capable of hyperthreading
[18:02] <Poindexter_> I guess I will have to download php4 and make ./install it.
[18:02] <SpiLoT> 21GB files is the D
[18:02] <SpiLoT> Ah fuck. How to take a screenshot?
[18:02] <fowlduck> Does anyone have any idea how to investigate this?
[18:02] <SpiLoT> nvm
[18:02] <maco> SpiLoT: watch your language, and it should be gnome-screenshot
[18:03] <Sidewinder1> !language > SpiLoT
[18:03] <newbeee> SpiLoT hmm I have the same problem but in disk utility that partition is shown unmounted all I need to do is mount and I can use that but again when I turn off the sys I have to do it again
[18:03] <demonspork> Sidewinder1, I did a wubi install of Ubuntu and promptly deleted it. Too many bugs. It has been a while since I tried though, maybe it has been ironed out a bit
[18:04] <demonspork> newbeee, you can add the entry to fstab, I am not sure if there is a simple gui method to do it~~~ I learned how to use fstab a long time ago and haven't paid any attention to the guis for disk management since then
[18:04] <newbeee> demonspork fstab what is that sorry I dont know
[18:05] <demonspork> newbeee, Use ntfs-config - if it isn't installed you can install it by typying sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[18:05] <Sidewinder1> demonspork, I didn't have the guts to even try it; it sounded like problems from the start. Unfortunately there's many who try to use it on a long term basis and then come here when there's problems.
[18:06] <demonspork> Sidewinder1, the funny thing is that I haven't loaded my Ubuntu install in nearly a year. I started it up and found that I was on 9.10. Currently updating, lol
[18:07] <demonspork> newbeee, did you find the ntfs-config program?
[18:07] <newbeee> Sidewinder1 I use wubi because I have two partitions which I cannot erase and cannot extract more than 2 g.b using shrink volume in windows
[18:07] <newbeee> demonspork installing it
[18:07] <newbeee> demonspork Im on a slow connection
[18:07] <newbeee> demonspork finished installing let me try
[18:08] <demonspork> it should give all of the options needed to add the entry to fstab, fstab is just a list of partions and things and how Ubuntu mounts them and uses them
[18:09] <newbeee> demonspork: what to do with this program just type ntfs-config?
[18:09] <JamesJRH> Sorry, lost connection.
[18:09] <JamesJRH> How do I do this on the LiveCD which doesn't use Grub: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Display_Manager#GRUB
[18:09] <Sidewinder1> newbeee, I didn't mean anything negative towards you or anyone else that uses wubi to "try ubuntu" as I stated, it's long term use can be problematic, that's all.
[18:09] <Sidewinder1> :-)
[18:09] <demonspork> JamesJRH, what are you trying to do that requires those steps?
[18:09] <SpiLoT> Argh! Found it. It was all the time mounted however it was mounted at "/host". Just had to click it from the Disk Utility. Thanks errbody!
[18:10] <newbeee> Hey Sidewinder I dint take it in that sense I just used that opportunity find any solution to my problem
[18:10] <Sidewinder1> Understood.
[18:10] <demonspork> newbeee, your host may be mounted at /host, look at it.  This then blocks all other utilities from working.
[18:11] <newbie01> whats the point of RAM on a computer?
[18:11] <demonspork> JamesJRH, then repair the partition
[18:11] <fowlduck> is there a way to determine what features are supported by the kernel? I'd like to check if hyperthreading is enabled
[18:11] <Sidewinder1> !ram > newbie01
[18:12] <secret> how do you tell if your partison is faulty?
[18:12] <mithridates> ok does anyone know what's happening to firefox in ubuntu? why do they want to replace it with chrome and who has made this decision and why?
[18:12] <demonspork> newbie01, RAM is where the computer keeps programs that are currently in use, such as the Operating System and your web browser and xchat.  It is much much higher speed than leaving all of that information on the hard drvie
[18:12] <newbeee> The problem is that it is not mounted by default when it is on.I have to mount it manually using disk utility.When mounting it gets mounted to /media/ubuntu
[18:12] <Sidewinder1> secret, Have you tried Disk Utility in System-->Administration?
[18:12] <IdleOne> mithridates: read the article it tells you
[18:12] <demonspork> Sidewinder1, I keep forgetting that ubottu is there. Ever since they removed the !hello factoid I have ignored him
[18:12] <newbie01> demonspork,  tx
[18:13] <mithridates> IdleOne: it tells me but it doesn't make sense to me
[18:13] <demonspork> !hello
[18:13] <ZykoticK9_> mithridates, your question is OT in this channel.  This is what you get using Ubuntu... seek alternatives.
[18:13] <JamesJRH> demonspork: How? If no utilities will work? Everything either blocks and becomes uninterruptible or says it is busy.
[18:13] <tjiggi_fo> fowlduck, cat /proc/cpuinfo look for a HT flag
[18:13] <newbeee> demonspork: The problem is that it is not mounted by default when it is on.I have to mount it manually using disk utility.When mounting it gets mounted to /media/ubuntu
[18:13] <mithridates> ZykoticK9_: sure
[18:13] <Sidewinder1> demonspork, Foe those like me, whose typing is an abomination ubottu is invaluable. :D
[18:13] <fowlduck> tjiggi_fo: does that mean the cpu supports it or that the kernel does?
[18:13] <demonspork> newbeee, then the ntfs-config to change that
[18:13] <Pici> mithridates: Discussion belons in #ubuntu-offtopic , not #ubuntu
[18:13] <JamesJRH> See lines 770 onwards: http://paste.ubuntu.com/630579/
[18:14] <newbeee> demonspork: That returns an error
[18:14] <tjiggi_fo> fowlduck, cpu
[18:14] <demonspork> JamesJRH, what is the format of the partition?
[18:14] <nimbiotics> is there a channel for Urban Terror, the game?
[18:14] <newbeee> demonspork: OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/hal/fdi/policy'
[18:14] <Sidewinder1> demonspork, "Foe", see what I mean? :-(
[18:15] <demonspork> newbeee, launch ntfs-config with gksudo.  Close it, then press alt+F2 and type "gksudo ntfs-config" and see if that lets you past the error
[18:15] <JamesJRH> demonspork: Ext4.
[18:15] <fowlduck> tjiggi_fo: yeah, I need to figure out if the kernel supports it or not
[18:15] <OerHeks> nimbiotics, not on freenode
[18:16] <fowlduck> tjiggi_fo: I'm not seeing the virtual cores in top, /proc/cpuinfo, or cpuid, so i'd like to check if the kernel has it disabled or maybe if it's disabled in the bios
[18:16] <nimbiotics> OerHeks: THX, any ideas about where would I find such channel?
[18:16] <demonspork> JamesJRH, what happens when you open a terminal? even if the GUI utilities are going bonkers you should still be able to use fsck.  Type sudo fsck /dev/sda5  (replace /dev/sda5 with the correct one for your partition)
[18:16] <ilovebears> i have some strange issues with my usb stick. if i plug him into my usb3.0 port, he is not detected by ubuntu. If i use my usb extending cable or plug him into an usb2.0 port the stick works fine
[18:16] <OerHeks> nimbiotics, try google ?
[18:16] <maxo> I'm using Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (Eucalyptus). If I terminate an instance, any configuration made is lost. How can one get round this problem?
[18:16] <newtothis2> in Ubuntu is sais that i dont have the hardware to run unity please use classic what hardware do i lack??
[18:16] <nimbiotics> OerHeks: OK, THX again!
[18:17] <JamesJRH> demonspork: I'm talking about utilities like fsck.
[18:17] <demonspork> maxo,  you are probably better off in #ubuntu-server
[18:17] <demonspork> ah
[18:17] <demonspork> k
[18:17] <ZykoticK9_> newtothis2, graphics card with 3d support
[18:17] <demonspork> hmm
[18:17] <abhinav_singh> how to get system load ?
[18:17] <JamesJRH> demonspork: http://paste.ubuntu.com/630588/
[18:17] <newbeee> demonspork: No that also gives error
[18:17] <ilovebears> everything works fine with windows
[18:17] <ZykoticK9_> abhinav_singh, top
[18:17] <szal> nimbiotics: http://irc.netsplit.de/channels/
[18:17] <Pici> abhinav_singh: How to create it? Or how is it calculated?
[18:17] <demonspork> newbeee, then I have no idea at that point
[18:17] <newtothis2> but i have an nvidia fx5500
[18:17] <demonspork> JamesJRH, sudo umount /dev/sda2 then try the fsck again
[18:18] <tjiggi_fo> fowlduck, I speak under correction but I think you need a kernel with SMP in the kernel name. Not sure so I can't advise you any further
[18:18] <newbeee> demonspork: Ok anyway thanks let me try something
[18:18] <ZykoticK9_> abhinav_singh, "uptime" also shows load
[18:18] <SeanB94> could someone help me with a problem im haveing
[18:18] <fowlduck> tjiggi_fo: `uname -a` # => Linux 358015-domain 2.6.38-8-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:49:04 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[18:19] <szal> tjiggi_fo: if I am informed correctly, any 64bit kernel does SMP, for the 32bit kernels, no idea though
[18:19] <demonspork> newbeee, sometimes if you open nautilus as root (alt+F2, gsudo nautilus) it will give you the option to set a permanent mount point because you will actually have permissions to do so
[18:19] <JamesJRH> demonspork: apparently it's not mounted. It's in use by 'jbd2/sda2-8' which is uninterruptible. This starts at boot. Can I stop it from running?
[18:20] <tjiggi_fo> fowlduck, szal thanks, but I'm on shakey ground - and uncomfortable telling you stuff I'm unsure of
[18:20] <SeanB94> im trying to connect my phone to my pc with a usb cable and it does not want to  say connected
[18:20] <demonspork> hmm, not very familiar with the latest releases, maybe the liveCD is running fsck on it in the background on its own? anyone else know if that is possible?
[18:20] <demonspork> SeanB94, which phone is it?
[18:20] <ZykoticK9_> fowlduck, you might want to try the #ubuntu-server channel instead
[18:20] <newbeee> demonspork:But how do I mount using nautilus
[18:20] <fowlduck> tjiggi_fo: that's fine, thanks for the info you've supplied, it led us to some other stuff that helped us confirmed that, at a minimum, it's off
[18:20] <fowlduck> ZykoticK9_: ah, cool, thanks
[18:20] <SeanB94> its the samsung seek
[18:21] <JamesJRH> What is 'jbd2/sda2-8'? How do I prevent it from starting when I boot the LiveCD?
[18:21] <Sidewinder1> newbeee, If you click on it, in Nautilus it should mount it.
[18:21] <SeanB94> when i have it connected and have the my comp window open it keeps flashing in and out
[18:21] <avengre> any suggestions for finding out what video card a laptop with ubuntu installed has? I know its nvidia... but no idea what version :/
[18:22] <demonspork> newbeee, in the navigation pane to the right side of nautilus it should show the mounted partitions and mountable disks, simply right click on the partition you want to permanently mount and then it gives some options for messing with the mount point, which you don't normally have permission to do, but now since you are running nautilus as root you should be able to mess with it.
[18:23] <SeanB94> ive tryed useing my card reader but that does not work eather
[18:23] <newbeee> demonspork:The problem is that it is not shown in left pane.The only place where I can find the disk is using disk utility
[18:23] <mrmikenev> avengre: run 'lspci' from the command prompt
[18:24] <ZykoticK9_> avengre, "lspci | grep -i vga" will show only your gfx card
[18:24] <avengre> thanks that got it
[18:24] <avengre> gf fx 5600 go
[18:24] <avengre> ew
[18:24] <demonspork> newbeee, is it mounted right now?  If so, do "cat /etc/mtab" in a terminal. You should be able to find the line that represents the options for that particular partition, then you can copy that line, and go add it to the end of the file at /etc/fstab
[18:25] <fenrig> a friend of mine is having troubles with his intel gma 4500
[18:25] <szal> SeanB94: as far as I get it, if you plug in the phone, the phone should first recognize a USB connection; if you then choose to connect as USB mass storage device (or have that preselected), you should either get a pop-up asking you what to do w/ the new device or have it auto-mounted, depending on your settings
[18:25] <newbeee> demonspork let me try that
[18:25] <avengre> Thanks for your help ZykoticK9_ and mrmikenev
[18:25] <fenrig> Xorg gives a blank screen, how do i disable the intel gpu drivers with grub?
[18:25] <fenrig> and which driver should I disable?
[18:25] <szal> SeanB94: and if it doesn't give you anything, it's probably charging the battery, then you have to wait for the charging to finish
[18:26] <SeanB94> yea it comes up as a mass storeage device but it doesnt stay there for long
[18:26] <demonspork> newbeee, you can also modify the line to mount it in whatever folder you want, but make sure that you create that folder before you mount the partition there, it doesn't like it if the folder doesn't exist
[18:26] <SeanB94> the phones fullly charged
[18:26] <sl33k_> where does unetbootin install the iso image using hdmedia install? which drive?
[18:26] <Bartzy|work> is it possible to use 'openssl req -newkey' to create a private key that has a passphrase ? I can't accomplish that.
[18:26] <SeanB94> szal may i pm u?
[18:27] <demonspork> oh shoot, hey guys, I had a dock application on my Ubuntu, just performed an upgrade and it is now gone. I also don't remember the name of the dock I was using, so can you guys suggest some of the common dock programs so that I can try to figure out which one it was?
[18:28] <Azelphur> demonspork: what did it do?
[18:28] <Toze_das_Coves> cairo dock?
[18:28] <Toze_das_Coves> avant window manager?
[18:28] <Azelphur> oh, docks. Cairo-dock is indeed the most common, there's also awn
[18:29] <rumpe1> demonspork, try "aptitude search dock | grep ^i"
[18:29] <demonspork> Azelphur, it wasn't gnome-do or avant-window-navigator, but the icons on the dock would jump straight up and down when launched or when I moved my mouse over them. It had a trashcan and a gnome menu
[18:29] <JamesJRH> How do I boot the LiveCD in runlevel 1?
[18:29] <Azelphur> demonspork: sounds like cairo-dock to me
[18:29] <sl33k_> where does unetbootin install the iso image using hdmedia install? which drive?
[18:29] <Azelphur> demonspork: cairo-dock is also known as glx-dock
[18:29] <JamesJRH> What is 'jbd2/sda2-8'? How do I prevent it from starting when I boot the LiveCD?
[18:30] <obedience> hi
[18:30] <Odedo> Hello. Where would I place a script to be executed when my machine returns from suspension?
[18:31] <the-newsman> what is the defualt user/pass for ubuntu ??
[18:31] <demonspork> Azelphur, nope, wasn't cairo-dock. The dock I was using didn't have the zoom effect
[18:31] <obedience> the-newsman, there is not default password
[18:31] <demonspork> although I do have cairo-dock installed, I wasn't using it
[18:31] <Azelphur> demonspork: cairo-dock has multiple effects, zoom and bounce are both part of cairo-dock
[18:31] <the-newsman> obedience then what is the u/p ? i am having trouble to login to ubunty 9.10
[18:31] <Azelphur> along with trash can, and menu
[18:31] <JamesJRH> the-newsman: On the LiveCD it is ubuntu with no password, just press enter.
[18:32] <SeanB94> this is starting to piss me off
[18:32] <strowi> hi
[18:32] <Azelphur> demonspork: check out the cairo-dock theme menu, you probably just had a different theme set :)
[18:32] <Toze_das_Coves> demonspork, have you tried doing what rumpe1 said?
[18:33] <the-newsman> JamesJR can i /msg u ?
[18:33] <JamesJRH> the-newsman: Yes.
[18:33] <ghabit> Hello.
[18:33] <Toze_das_Coves> Now playing: Jamiroquai- Love Foolosophy
[18:33] <ghabit> How to config default grub entry?
[18:34] <IdleOne> Toze_das_Coves: Please turn off that script
[18:34] <obedience> the-newsman, seems you are not allowed to log in... are you go going to commit malevolence ?
[18:35] <demonspork> Toze_das_Coves, i am now worried that whatever it was got uninstalled in the list of obsolete packages. I thought I checked that list thoroughly to make sure nothing I needed was in there.  Only Cairo and gnome-do appear to be installed
[18:35] <Spynxic> When I start Counter Strike (fps game) the screen is black except the game itself is in the bottom left corner of the screen, mostly off screen
[18:35] <Spynxic> Any ways to fix it?
[18:35] <SeanB94> any way to fix the car reader on the acer aspire one ?
[18:35] <Toze_das_Coves> demonspork, that's odd
[18:35] <NFischer> HI everyone! Does anybody know how i could change the data my Gnome-Clock-Applet is using.. its pretty inaccurate and i want to use the ones from the local University
[18:36] <Toze_das_Coves> maybe it was that Azelphur said
[18:36] <Toze_das_Coves> it's a different theme
[18:36] <demonspork> It should keep the settings, like the apps that should be listed on the dock are the same. I also remember it didn't seem to render as fancy as cairo-dock
[18:37] <ghabit> Hello guys, how to change grub settings? timeout, default OS, etc.
[18:37] <Toze_das_Coves> demonspork, and you can't remember the name of the dock?
[18:37] <Toze_das_Coves> not even a single word?
[18:37] <Leeds26m> anyone know if its just me, or is gyachi no longer connecting to yahoo's captcha servers?
[18:37] <Toze_das_Coves> ghabit, edit the grub.cfg
[18:37] <asdjaputra> ghabit, /etc/default/grub
[18:38] <demonspork> Toze_das_Coves, I didn't start Ubuntu for almost a year, but I spent 2 years setting up this system exactly as I wanted it before that and now I am missing the dock I had configured and customized with a custom built grayscale icon set
[18:38] <demonspork> :(
[18:38] <Toze_das_Coves> man :/
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> the thing is
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> looks very weird
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> like you said
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> if it was cairo dock
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> it should automatically restore the settings
[18:39] <Toze_das_Coves> that you previously had
[18:39] <demonspork> right
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Toze_das_Coves: ease on the ENTER key dude
[18:39] <ghabit> Toze_das_Coves, asdjaputra, well, I can find /etc/default/grub, but I don't know how to edit this file... I have windows7 and ubuntu on pc, and I want to make win7 default for my family.
[18:39] <demonspork> none of them are there
[18:39] <asdjaputra> ghabit, sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> ghabit: http://saji89.wordpress.com/2010/02/01/how-to-make-windows-the-defaultfirst-entry-in-your-grub2-menu/
[18:40] <Toze_das_Coves> demonspork, sorry i can't help you anymore :/
[18:40] <demonspork> thanks for trying :(
[18:40] <Toze_das_Coves> ActionParsnip, sorry about that
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> ghabit: that will make windows the default
[18:40] <demonspork> maybe I should look up packages that existed in 9.10
[18:40] <ghabit> Toze_das_Coves, asdjaputra, is the good idea to use 'startup-manager' software from synaptic?
[18:41] <asdjaputra> ghabit, ActionParsnip's answer will do the trick
[18:41] <slice092> unity is gone howt get it back?
[18:42] <jellow> Is there a keymanager that can store it's keys remotly on a server ?
[18:42] <asdjaputra> slice092, before you login pick Ubuntu Desktop at the bottom of the screen
[18:42] <Toze_das_Coves> slice092, in what session are you?
[18:42] <slice092> ubunut
[18:42] <slice092> *ubuntu
[18:43] <Toze_das_Coves> Do what asdfasdfa said. Choose Ubuntu Desktop when you're about to login. not ubuntu classic
[18:43] <amalloy> in 11.04, i modified Appearance settings to have larger fonts and it worked fine; but after a reboot every application seems to be ignoring my font sizes, even if i reset them
[18:43] <asdjaputra> Toze_das_Coves, lol that's not my name
[18:43] <Toze_das_Coves> ups sorry,
[18:43] <slice092> ok thanks will try it
[18:44] <Pici> !tab | Toze_das_Coves
[18:44] <amalloy> i think i'm using ubuntu classic, since i don't have the necessary proprietary drivers installed for unity
[18:44] <asdjaputra> Pici, maybe he did, but asdfasdfa came first before mine
[18:44] <Toze_das_Coves> i know that :)
[18:44] <Pici> asdjaputra: ah, oops ;)
[18:45] <Toze_das_Coves> btw anyone here who uses teamviewer? When i'm using it and then switch to another program, teamviewer just freezes and stands there
[18:46] <ghabit> last question please - timeout of grub - where I can set it?
[18:46] <slice092> unity is gone cant get it to work, anybody knows?
[18:47] <vatts> ghabit, i'm not pro of this but i guess it's in grub config file. explore and see...^ goodluck!
[18:47] <Toze_das_Coves> ghabit, inside the config file isn't there anything about timeout?
[18:47] <BluesKaj> there should be a server rule, no nicks with the first 4 letters duplicated.
[18:47] <oCean> ghabit: edit /etc/default/grub, then run sudo update-grub
[18:47] <Toze_das_Coves> there should be a section about timeout. Something like timeout 3
[18:47] <ghabit> Thank you!
[18:48] <slice092> nity is gone cant get it to work, anybody knows?
[18:48] <slice092> *unity
[18:48] <amalloy> in 11.04, i modified Appearance settings to have larger fonts and it worked fine; but after a reboot every application seems to be ignoring my font sizes, even if i reset them. eg, i've set application font size to 15, and even the Appearance Preferences manager ignores it
[18:48] <Pici> !details | slice092
[18:48] <IdleOne> slice092: what did you change/do before unity stopped working?
[18:48] <slice092> compaiz
[18:49] <IdleOne> slice092: open ccsm and make sure that the Unity plugin is enabled
[18:49] <gertidon> hi all
[18:49] <ndkta> hey :)
[18:49] <slice092> IdleOne: don't got terminal or nothing
[18:49] <asdjaputra> slice092, Ctrl Alt F1
[18:50] <slice092> asdjaputra: then whot?
[18:50] <gertidon> How to have colors in 'ls' command ? i only have a blue color for dirs, but want to have different colors for filetype.
[18:50] <asdjaputra> slice092, type in your login name and password
[18:50] <jellow> I want a password manager that can store it's key remotleys so I can use it on multiple computers?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> gertidon: it does that by default
[18:50] <newbeee> uname -r
[18:50] <IdleOne> slice092: after ligging into TTY1 type: startx
[18:51] <IdleOne> logging*
[18:51] <asdjaputra> slice092, wait you got a blank screen or what?
[18:51] <slice092> IdleOne: startx and gdm not working
[18:51] <slice092> asdjaputra: yes
[18:51] <asdjaputra> slice092, sudo startx
[18:51] <gertidon> ActionParsnip: what i have is the default for me, in xterm and in terminator
[18:52] <slice092> asdjaputra: sudo -i and sudo startx not working
[18:52] <gertidon> just color for folders
[18:52] <asdjaputra> slice092, su
[18:52] <Pici> gertidon: executable files aren't green?
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> slice092: sudo startx is a really bad idea
[18:52] <IdleOne> slice092: is gdm installed? apt-cache policy gdm
[18:52] <slice092> IdleOne:  gdm is installd
[18:53] <asdjaputra> ActionParsnip, yeah, but you can't run x without root
[18:53] <gertidon> ActionParsnip: yes it is, and jpeg files in pink
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> gertidon: then thats it working :)
[18:53] <IdleOne> slice092: sudo service gdm start
[18:53] <gertidon> ActionParsnip: where to add the .c and .php ?
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> gertidon: that I am not aware of
[18:53] <slice092> IdleOne: will try it will back soon
[18:54] <gertidon> ActionParsnip: yes you're right it works
[18:54] <asdjaputra> gertidon, ls --color=AUTO
[18:54] <Pici> gertidon: I'm pretty sure that coloring by file extension isn't supported by bash. You might be able to do it with another shell, like zsh.
[18:54] <gertidon> need to find config file for filetype
[18:54] <asdjaputra> woop, gertidon, ls --color=auto
[18:54] <gertidon> asdjaputra: doesn't work
[18:54] <gertidon> Pici: oh ! i thing you're right !
[18:54] <gertidon> remember now..
[18:55] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: sudo startx would mean that any app ran after that would be run by root correct?
[18:55] <asdjaputra> Pici, you mean, adding entries for what color is used for what extension?
[18:55] <Pici> asdjaputra: Yes.
[18:55] <slice092> still no unity
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> IdleOne: interestingly my X is running as root....
[18:55] <gertidon> Pici: but why it work for .jpeg file ??
[18:55] <Pici> gertidon: What color is the jpeg file?
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> let me play
[18:56] <gertidon> Pici: something like pink color
[18:56] <ceed^> Hi, I am not able to burn DVDs anymore on my 11.04 laptop. CDs burn fine. I've tried several burn programs (k3b, Brasero, XFburn) and they all fail. Nothing wrong with the media either since it works on other machines
[18:56] <asdjaputra> gertidon, its built-uin
[18:56] <Pici> gertidon: Whats the output of: ls -l     on that file?
[18:56] <gertidon> Pici: the same : pink
[18:56]  * szal once heard of a planned design change in the X server and/or the kernel that would make it possible to run X as non-root
[18:57] <szal> no idea what's the status of that though
[18:57] <Pici> gertidon: Actually... let me check something. One moment.
[18:58] <m1chael> i upgraded my ubuntu, and my screen is flickering/black, i drag the mousse around and click, and things become kind of visible, it's very random and weird.. i dont know what to do to fix this.. it's a dual boot with windows xp...
[18:58] <Sidewinder1> Pici, gertidon  Interesting some of my jpegs are different colors from one another; I never really paid much attention, but it is curious.
[18:58] <asdjaputra> m1chael, i think that's normal
[18:58]  * szal has colours on for ls automatically (prolly an alias in ~/.bashrc or somthing
[18:58] <asdjaputra> m1chael, does it do that all the time?
[18:59]  * szal would rather eat mousse than drag it around :P
[18:59] <NFischer> Wie heisst das tool, mit dem man Graphen von z.B. Tempoeraturverläufen zeichnen lassen kann? (ich habe ein Webfrontend in Errinerung)
[18:59] <Pici> gertidon: Take a look at the manpage for dircolors.
[18:59] <Pici> !de | NFischer
[18:59] <gertidon> Pici: yes i found that just now :)
[18:59] <NFischer> sorry
[18:59] <NFischer> mistake
[19:00] <NFischer> i want to graph my CPU temperature.. what tool can i use for it?
[19:00] <gribouille> hi
[19:00] <Pici> gertidon: Its not bash itself that does the coloring, its dircolors setting $LS_COLORS , which is part of the coreutils package.
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> IdleOne: http://paste.ubuntu.com/630913/   seems X runs as user but X runs as root
[19:00] <gribouille> is firefox 5 available for maverick ?
[19:00] <io> !info computertemp | NFischer
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> IdleOne: sorry, startx as user
[19:01] <asdjaputra> gribouille, yes
[19:01] <gertidon> Pici: i see, i will add some filetype
[19:01] <asdjaputra> gribouille, but i recommend you to download from mozilla.com
[19:01] <gertidon> Pici: thanks for your help !
[19:01] <NFischer> ubottu, in an actual fact i wanted to draw Temperature from a weather-Station..
[19:01] <gribouille> asdjaputra, why ?
[19:02] <asdjaputra> gribouille, it's better that way
[19:02] <io> NFischer: then why not ask your real question initially?
[19:02] <asdjaputra> gribouille, every time i try to install from the repos it failed
[19:02] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: what I am trying to understand is why running sudo startx is bad
[19:02] <Pici> gribouille: Theres a PPA for earlier releases of Ubuntu.
[19:02] <Pici> !ff5 | gribouille
[19:03] <NFischer> io, i missed a word in english u moron!
[19:03] <asdjaputra> NFischer, nicer please
[19:03] <gribouille> Pici, I installed this repo, but ff 5 isn't available
[19:04] <Pici> gribouille: The package name is just 'firefox', do an apt-get dist-upgrade to make sure that you get it.
[19:04] <io> NFischer: initially you said that you wanted to graph your CPU temperature, but in actual fact you wanted to graph temperatures from a weather station?
[19:04] <NFischer> io, yes
 i want to graph my CPU temperature.. what tool can i use for it?
[19:04] <xangua> Pici: not still for lucid¿
[19:04] <xangua> i mean fx 5
[19:05] <gribouille> Pici, the only package available is xulrunner-1.9.2
[19:05] <lucidguy> g++ question .. I run "g++ ./helloworld.cc -o ./hello" and I get exec: 79  Permission Denied???  Any ideas?
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> IdleOne: running as little stuff with sudo is good :)
[19:06] <Pici> gribouille, xangua: let me take a look, one moment.
[19:06] <asdjaputra> ActionParsnip, what's wrong with sudo?
[19:06] <slice092> nity is gone cant get it to work
[19:06] <io> NFischer: ok, so you didn't miss a word, you lied - ok now that we've got that straight, there are packages like graphmonkey, graphthing, graphviz etc. that might be useful for you
[19:06] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: understood
[19:06] <asdjaputra> !patient | slice092
[19:06] <io> oh, he left
[19:06] <asdjaputra> lol that doesn't do the trick
[19:07] <newbeee> !patient
[19:07] <asdjaputra> !patience | slice092
[19:07] <io> !permissions | lucidguy
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> asdjaputra: nothing perse, just running stuff with it when its not needed can cause issues
[19:08] <slice092> ubottu: ok thanks
[19:08] <asdjaputra> ActionParsnip, ah i get it, just like doing daily stuffs in BackTrack
[19:08] <asdjaputra> heh
[19:08] <asdjaputra> slice092, its a bot.
[19:08] <slice092> asdjaputra: hahaha fail a bit tierd
[19:09] <gribouille> Pici, when I do apt-get update, I get the follwing line : Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-stable/ubuntu/ maverick/main Translation-en
[19:09] <Pici> gribouille, xangua: I see it in mozillateam's beta channel, but not the stable.
[19:09] <asdjaputra> slice092, what did you exactly change in compiz before it went wrong
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> asdjaputra: pretty much
[19:09] <slice092> asdjaputra: i oick
[19:09] <asdjaputra> ActionParsnip, but as long as you know where you're going with sudo, that'll be ok, especially its only for running startx
[19:09] <asdjaputra> slice092, click?
[19:10] <tortib> Hello everyone, I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 with two video cards I wanted to know if it's possible to setup Xinerama with ATI so I can move windows to my 2nd monitor.

[19:12] <asdjaputra> ArmyMan007, Applications > Office
[19:12] <gogeta> asdjaputra: you need to add that to your user permissions
[19:12] <ArmyMan007> asdjaputra: it's not there
[19:13] <gogeta> asdjaputra: you will probly need to add the user to sound and video as well
[19:13] <asdjaputra> gogeta, does ubuntu do that by default?
[19:13] <gogeta> asdjaputra: yes
[19:13] <asdjaputra> gogeta, i mean, allows normal users to startx
[19:13] <icub3d> ArmyMan007, Did you install it from source?
[19:13] <gogeta> asdjaputra: yes
[19:13] <ArmyMan007> icub3d: no... installed it from software center

[19:14] <gogeta> asdjaputra: you can
[19:14] <asdjaputra> gogeta, no, from a GUI terminal
[19:14] <ArmyMan007> no... i'm talking about openoffice
[19:14] <asdjaputra> gogeta, should've started it with a tty
[19:14] <gogeta> asdjaputra: however gdm might aruldy be running if you havent disabled it
[19:14] <icio> I'm trying to get a 30" apple cinema display working on 11.04; apparently I'm supposed to use "AllowDualLinkModes" in xorg.conf, but I'm struggling to make it work

[19:15] <Pici> gribouille, xangua: It looks like there is still work going on thats preventing the PPA from being updated with Firefox 5.  If you keep the PPA added, it will land there eventually.
[19:15] <asdjaputra> gogeta, yes :( i totally forgot
[19:15] <icub3d> ArmyMan007, are you using unity or classic?
[19:15] <aftertaf> Anyone aware of Acer / EMachines and ATI card related issues where 11.04 has biiig issues booting ?

[19:17] <aftertaf> Plymouth seems to not start unless i press a key (which makes the HDD led flash) many times during boot, including on the part of Plymouth where Ubuntu is written
[19:18] <asdjaputra> gogeta, no i was just asking why sudo startx is not good
[19:18] <slice092> fuck it will install a fresh 11.4
[19:18] <IdleOne> !language | slice092
[19:18] <oCean> slice092: mind your language here please
[19:18] <lucidguy> asdjaputra: same as gcc to my knowledge
[19:18] <aftertaf> this is a fresh 11.04, 64 bit, btw
[19:18] <gogeta> asdjaputra: its the same as loggin in as root all the time
[19:19] <gogeta> asdjaputra: so if you got a bad file or a rootkit it would destory the system
[19:19] <ohir> thx1138: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=611165
[19:19] <asdjaputra> gogeta, I'm logged in as me
[19:19] <asdjaputra> gogeta, whoami, I'm spiderman
[19:19] <asdjaputra> lol
[19:19] <ohir> thx1138: use search engines. 'Ubuntu encrypted rescue'
[19:19] <gogeta> asdjaputra: or just made a simple user level mastake that would normaly get blocked
[19:19] <asdjaputra> gogeta, ok i got scared already
[19:19] <gogeta> asdjaputra: lol
[19:20] <asdjaputra> gogeta, active user is me
[19:21] <asdjaputra> gogeta, i ran tty7 as me
[19:21] <asdjaputra> gogeta, so i think that should be ok
[19:21] <gogeta> asdjaputra: well if your whanting a sudo file system and stuff you can do it via sudo
[19:21] <gogeta> asdjaputra: without sudo startx
[19:21] <asdjaputra> gogeta, or with su -c
[19:21] <asdjaputra> gogeta, lol
[19:21] <gogeta> asdjaputra: most will kill me for saying this but sudo natules works
[19:21] <asdjaputra> gogeta, i didn't mean to run the display with root
[19:22] <gogeta> asdjaputra: bascily puts the file manager as super user
[19:22] <asdjaputra> gogeta, i was just asking.............
[19:22] <asdjaputra> why isn't it ok
[19:22] <ab2tract> natules?
[19:22] <asdjaputra> sudo just works
[19:22] <gogeta> i probly mispseed it but the gnome file manager
[19:22] <eustace> Hello, does anyone have the same problem as me? Skype stops working after reboot (sometimes after 2). When I try to launch it, nothing happens.
[19:22] <ab2tract> its gksudo nautilus
[19:22] <gogeta> yea
[19:23] <eustace> and I have to reinstall skype every time
[19:23] <gogeta> asdjaputra: doing that gives you root acess to the whole file system when nedded
[19:23] <asdjaputra> gogeta, i was asking why isn't it ok to run sudo startx, and then it came that running tty7 as root is dangerous.
[19:23] <asdjaputra> gogeta, and i said ok
[19:23] <gogeta> asdjaputra: k
[19:23] <asdjaputra> gogeta, so i will run it as asdjaputra
[19:24] <asdjaputra> doing other stuffs with ttys and GUI terminals with sudo
[19:24] <tortib> Has anyone here been able to successfully get Xinerama working with their ATI cards?  I've tried to add Option "Xinerama" "true" to my ServerLayout section of my xorg.conf but that causes X not to start, is there something I'm missing?
[19:24] <gogeta> tortib: i beleve atis working on that is buggy at best
[19:24] <asdjaputra> slice092, i found this http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Compiz
[19:25] <tortib> gogeta: well I have the 2nd screen up and running but I can't move windows to that screen
[19:25] <tortib> and there isn't any launcher bar or anything on that screen either so I can't start any programs up or anything
[19:25] <tortib> It's useless just sitting there.
[19:25] <gogeta> tortib: so its in extended mode?
[19:25] <tortib> I guess so it's the default setup from aticonfig --initial --adapter=all
[19:25] <aftertaf> anyone have issues with Acer/Emachines and Unity, apart from me ?
[19:26] <tortib> I can paste the xorg.conf if you would like me to
[19:26] <gogeta> tortib: ubuntu shoulda done it auto
[19:26] <asdjaputra> slice092, you still there?
[19:27] <gogeta> tortib: you should be able to go to the display settings and the 2nd monoter should be visable so you can change the settings
[19:27] <tortib> gogeta: well i get a background on the 2nd screen, but that's about it nothing else i can do with it
[19:27] <tortib> gogeta: it isn't visible
[19:27] <gogeta> tortib: should be in the 2nd display tab
[19:27] <tortib> just shows my main monitor
[19:27] <tortib> I'm under Monitor Preferences
[19:27] <tortib> there is no tab
[19:28] <gogeta> tortib: dikd you boot with it cnnected or plug it in
[19:28] <tortib> gogeta: yes like i said it's connected right now and it has the same desktop background image as my main monitor which I'm talking to you on now.
[19:28] <trollboy> nigger
[19:28] <gogeta> tortib: try starting up with it connected x might not be seeing it right away
[19:29] <tortib> gogeta: it was connected to X
[19:29] <asdjaputra> trollboy, what? lol
[19:29] <trollboy> NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER
[19:29] <tortib> the entire time gogeta
[19:29] <gogeta> tortib: ubuntu doesent relly use xorg.config anymore it auto gens it
[19:29] <asdjaputra> !spam | trollboy
[19:29] <tortib> gogeta: no it does use xorg.conf what on earth are you talking about?
[19:29] <gogeta> tortib: no it does not it genrates one on the fly now it no longer looks for it
[19:30] <gogeta> tortib: you need to do some tweaks to use xorg config again
[19:30] <tortib> gogeta: then why did X stop working when I made changes to XORG.CONF, you don't know what you're talking about
[19:30] <tortib> gogeta: you're clueless
[19:30] <tortib> pulling shit out of your ass

[19:30] <tortib> asdjaputra: at least i'm not making stuff up saying ubuntu doesn't use xorg.conf lol
[19:31] <asdjaputra> tortib, Pici is ready to kick you
[19:31] <Pici> tortib: I suggest you make yourself aware of the guidelines of this channel before continuing.  See: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[19:31] <gogeta> tortib: thats not made up if you used a google search you would see ubuntu changed how x works
[19:31] <edbian> gogeta: It uses it if there is one.  It does not require that there is one.
[19:31] <bennis> is there a way to add a firefox tab to an open firefox via ssh?

[19:32] <asdjaputra> Pici, what did you do to tortib?
[19:32] <edbian> bennis: Do you want to ssh into a machine and run firefox on that machine but see it on the client?
[19:32] <asdjaputra> !br | maxxx
[19:33] <Pici> asdjaputra: its a mute. see http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml

[19:37] <edbian> kbrosnan: That doesn't have the answer
[19:37] <edbian> bennis: This is a good one
[19:38] <newbeee> cyper85,  go ahead and state your problem
[19:38] <siton> There is an question but he seems not to solve it.
[19:38] <cyper85> I just installed Ubuntu latest version
[19:38] <aristidesfl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/630853/ and  http://pastie.org/2106744 please heeelp setting wireless network
[19:38] <cyper85> never used Linux before
[19:38] <Gabbro> ciao a tutti
[19:38] <Pici> !enter | cyper85
[19:38] <asdjaputra> cyper85, welcome to Linux
[19:38] <asdjaputra> and
[19:38] <cyper85> and have this weird problem where sometimes all the windows freeze - I can't click any button
[19:39] <cyper85> it's like the buttons are just an image and not clickable
[19:39] <siton> cyper: just kill your natty and try to use maverick
[19:39] <asdjaputra> so the display freezed
[19:39] <cyper85> well I can move windows around and resize
[19:39] <newbeee> siton:he is new to linux dont scare him lol
[19:40] <cyper85> also I'm note sure I've installed the latest Ati drivers properly
[19:40] <asdjaputra> cyper85, use linux mint, it's a beginner distro but still have functionalities that Ubuntu has, and it uses GNOME, not Unity
[19:40] <Pici> !classic
[19:40] <siton> LOL
[19:40] <asdjaputra> Unity has a lot of problems (still) because its still in its development state
[19:40] <edbian> asdjaputra: is unity the problem here?  I don't think so.
[19:40] <Pici> Note: We do not support Mint in this channel.
[19:41] <cyper85> I've already installed Ubuntu. I don't want to start again from scratch
[19:41] <asdjaputra> edbian, promoting..
[19:41] <Pici> asdjaputra: you don't need to use Unity if you don't like it.
[19:41] <asdjaputra> Pici, oh sorry
[19:41] <asdjaputra> k
[19:41] <edbian> cyper85: You can move the windows but buttons in the window don't work? (is that right?)
[19:41] <cyper85> edbian, correct
[19:41] <p014k> I hate unity.
[19:41] <cyper85> it happens from time to time
[19:41] <siton> The unity developers should say sorry to us newbees,LOL
[19:42] <newbeee> cyper85 under administration click on additional drivers to see if any driver needs to be installed
[19:42] <edbian> cyper85: What about the x button (or max / restore)
[19:42] <Pici> siton: Do you have a support question?
[19:42] <cyper85> I clicked already - that where I installed proprietary Ati drivers. But nothing else shows there
[19:42] <edbian> cyper85: I think it is just because ubuntu is generally a little buggy.  Have you updated to completely using the update manager?
[19:42] <cyper85> X button does not work too
[19:42] <cyper85> I will try Gnome now as someone told me above
[19:43] <edbian> cyper85: sure give, regular gnome 2.x a shot
[19:43] <asdjaputra> cyper85, logout, and pick Ubuntu Classic Session at the bottom of the screen
[19:43] <edbian> cyper85: I'm fairly sure logging out and logging back out would fix the problem temporarily
[19:43] <nckBriz> anyone know howto get full screen flash to not lag ;)
[19:44] <cyper85> see it happened again: I selected Log Out but then I can't click Log out in the dialog asking me if I'm sure
[19:44] <Name141> Can anyone help me with this Xubuntu Wubi install error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/630931/
[19:44] <asdjaputra> cyper85, press enter
[19:44] <siton> Cyper: so i think the window manager of your system works worse
[19:45] <Name141> basically comes up Exception: Cannot download the metalink and therefore the ISO
[19:45] <cyper85> Enter doesn't work too
[19:45] <edbian> cyper85: ctrl + sysRq+ k kills the gui without asking you anything.

[19:45] <cyper85> which key is SysRq
[19:45] <asdjaputra> below PrintScrn i guess
[19:45] <asdjaputra> with Fn
[19:45] <asdjaputra> on laptop
[19:45] <cyper85> found it
[19:45] <edbian> cyper85: print screen (some computers don't have it)
[19:45] <edbian> cyper85: oh good
[19:46] <cyper85> Ctrl + SysRq + K does not work
[19:46] <cyper85> nothing happens
[19:47] <Pici> cyper85: Its alt, not ctrl.
[19:47]  * edbian thinks that is a ridiculous shortcut
[19:47] <safe> I need help!!! Error no such device:'Random crap' Grub Rescue.
[19:47] <safe> I have just removed Backtrack, and I want to get back on to Ubuntu
[19:48] <asdjaputra> safe, Random crap, decrypted, please.
[19:48] <safe> I have no idea what it is
[19:48] <safe> Just a hole load of random numbers and letters
[19:48] <asdjaputra> say it here
[19:48] <safe> Well
[19:48] <asdjaputra> oh
[19:48] <asdjaputra> lol
[19:48] <safe> I doubt its random...
[19:48] <cyper85> that just turns the screen off somehoiw
[19:48] <edbian> It's almost definitely the UUID
[19:48] <asdjaputra> where did you install grub to? MBR (master boot record) or /dev/sda1
[19:49] <safe> IDK
[19:49] <edbian> safe: can you see the grub menu at all? (can you boot ubuntu)
[19:49] <asdjaputra> what did you install first, BT or Ubuntu
[19:49] <cyper85> I installed Ubuntu on a flash drive
[19:49] <safe> I cna't boot up ubuntu...
[19:49] <cyper85> 8GB Kingston DataTraveller
[19:49] <safe> When I boot up it says... grub rescuee>
[19:49] <asdjaputra> ls
[19:49] <edbian> safe: If you press shift during the boot. Do you get the grub menu (before the grub rescue thingy)
[19:50] <safe> And above thatOk
[19:50] <safe> Trying that
[19:50] <safe> I held down shift the hole way through, nothing happend though...
[19:51] <safe> Just the same grub rescuee thing
[19:51] <edbian> safe: boot an Ubuntu live CD
[19:52] <vooze> i just switched from debian til ubuntu-server (or trying to) but for some reason, the ubuntu 11.04 server CD cant see my main harddrive.. debian can just fine.. any ideas?
[19:52] <cyper85> edbian, can I talk to you on private
[19:52] <cyper85> please
[19:52] <edbian> cyper85: we are
[19:52] <bennis> anybody else hate that if you're in list view and the folder you're in doesn't have a folder, you can't create any new files?
[19:52] <bennis> for nautilus, at least
[19:52] <asdjaputra> edbian, heh
[19:52] <edbian> asdjaputra: :P
[19:52] <safe> It;'s booting
[19:53] <asdjaputra> but yeah the IRC's so quiet now
[19:53] <asdjaputra> only 3-4 people asking
[19:53] <edbian> safe: I can't wait.
[19:53] <safe> Wow
[19:53] <safe> That's odd.
[19:53] <asdjaputra> WoW
[19:53] <edbian> There are 1585 here!
[19:53] <asdjaputra> MDLXXXV?
[19:53] <guntbert> cyper85: you can tell your client to ignore the join/part messages, so the channel will not scroll as fast for you
[19:54] <safe> That would be useful
[19:55] <safe> Ok, Edbain it has booted.
[19:56] <edbian> safe: Let's just install boot using this live Cd.  first thing you have to do is mount your ubuntu partition.  you know how to do that?
[19:56] <safe> Nope
[19:57] <edbian> safe: sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt     do you know how to find X and Y ¿
[19:57] <safe> Nope =P
[19:57] <edbian> I have no idea how I just that upside backwards question make
[19:57] <asdjaputra> safe, if this is the only partition it would've been (typically) /dev/sda1
[19:57] <edbian> safe: Look at the output of sudo fdisk -l   It will list all your partitions.  Figure out which one is your ubuntu /
[19:58] <tiox> .j #firefox
[19:58] <tiox> ...
[19:58] <safe> I've got a few disks in there all partitioned...
[19:58] <safe> So no..
[19:58] <edbian> safe: Then use sudo fdisk -l   If you can't figure it out from that gparted may be a little more friendly
[19:59] <WXZ> where can I go to get help for gtk+ other than #gtk+ and #gnome?
[19:59] <safe> Ok.
[19:59] <safe> fdisk -l doesn't return anything
[19:59] <edbian> safe: sudo fdisk -l
[19:59] <q0_0p> safe: or cfdisk
[19:59] <safe> Ok
[20:00] <asdjaputra> WXZ, if you're asking that here, you're pretty sure we can help you?
[20:00] <safe> It's /dev/sdb2
[20:00] <asdjaputra> safe, sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
[20:00] <edbian> safe: sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt    (and look in /mnt at the files to confirm)
[20:00] <WXZ> asdjaputra: this place is filled with tonnes of people that are somewhat familiar with gnome
[20:00] <safe> Oh
[20:00] <WXZ> just playing the odds
[20:00] <asdjaputra> WXZ, with Unity now
[20:01] <WXZ> oh right :|
[20:01] <Pici> asdjaputra: Unity is a shell for gnome.
[20:01] <asdjaputra> sorry, should've been sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt
[20:01] <edbian> safe: oh ?  (that's a good thing?)
[20:01] <safe> It says it is already mounted...
[20:01] <shockrates> hey
[20:01] <asdjaputra> Pici, so it's a layer between gnome-core and us?
[20:01] <edbian> safe: great, look in /media (that's where things get automounted)
[20:01] <safe> There is a 96gb file system in the file browser.
[20:01] <edbian> safe: on in computer   whatev
[20:01] <safe> Yeah
[20:01] <shockrates> i inserted a cd in my pc and want to md5sum it. where can i browse the cd?
[20:02] <safe> In nautillys
[20:02] <safe> nautillus*
[20:02] <q0_0p> cfdisk is pretty nice
[20:02] <ab2tract> nautilus
[20:02] <Pici> shockrates: /dev/sd0 or /dev/cdrom
[20:02] <ray_> hey all
[20:02] <edbian> safe: is that a question?
[20:02] <safe> No
[20:02] <asdjaputra> /dev/sr0
[20:02] <safe> I'm wondering what I do next...
[20:02] <safe> It's monted.
[20:03] <Pici> !enter | safe
[20:03] <safe> mounted*
[20:03] <asdjaputra> or /dev/sd0
[20:03] <edbian> safe: You found the files?  what folder is it mounted in?
[20:03] <safe> Sorry =D
[20:03] <safe> Erm
[20:03] <safe> I don't know
[20:03] <edbian> safe: no worries
[20:03] <asdjaputra> edbian, it would've been /media/aosdhsoaadfwqr9qp24r8q2r
[20:03] <safe> How can I chekc?
[20:03] <asdjaputra> or something like that
[20:03] <edbian> safe: go to the files.  press the up arrow, look at what folder you're in
[20:04] <edbian> asdjaputra: yeah I know
[20:04] <safe> Ok
[20:04] <safe> It's in media, then a bunch of random letters and numbers.
[20:04] <edbian> safe: yeah so here is the deal (why I wanted it in /mnt) we're gonna have to type that so anyway.  Is this 11.04 ?
[20:04] <leblinux> Dears, is there a gui software that customize Grub2? mainly the 30_os-prober?
[20:05] <asdjaputra> leblinux, Startup manager
[20:05] <mint_> Talk to me now, Safe isn't needed.
[20:05] <safe> Tottaly true.
[20:05] <safe> Talk to mint_ instea
[20:05] <edbian> safe: ?  you don't need help anymore?
[20:05]  * safe notneeded

[20:06] <notsafe> Hello?
[20:06] <notsafe> Can you hear me?
[20:06] <guntbert> safe: mint_ don't press <enter> so often
[20:06] <asdjaputra> stop joking
[20:06] <edbian> notsafe: not funny
[20:06] <Pici> notsafe: Yes.
[20:07] <edbian> annoying
[20:07] <Name141> It seems the Wubi install can't get "metalink" , any ideas what to do about that ?
[20:07] <notsafe> Ok
[20:07] <edbian> notsafe: Are we done changing nicks?
[20:07] <notsafe> Edbian,so I've been mutedon the other one I guess we'll have to stick to here.
[20:07] <notsafe> Yes.
[20:07] <edbian> notsafe: Don't use enter so much and you won't get muted
[20:07] <asdjaputra> mint_'s unlocked, but remove it, talk with us using notsafe
[20:07] <mtx1980> hi ppl

[20:08] <asdjaputra> sudokill, play from sox
[20:08] <notsafe> Sorry Guntbert.
[20:08] <edbian> notsafe: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/<numbers>/ /dev/sda       this will install grub (the bootloader) to the harddrive again   I am assuming this is the harddrive you told the bios to boot
[20:09] <sudokill> asdjaputra,??
[20:09] <sudokill> sox>
[20:09] <sudokill> ?
[20:09] <asdjaputra> sudokill, sudo apt-get install sox
[20:09] <asdjaputra> sudokill, and use the command play
[20:09] <notsafe> Gah
[20:09] <sudokill> il google it thanks
[20:09] <leblinux> asdjaputra: thanks, I've tried it and it only shows 2 tabs Boot options and advanced... I wanted to delete an entry in grub2 menu and its not in startupmanager.
[20:09] <notsafe> I need to stop the text from scrolling...
[20:09] <notsafe> I'm on irssi
[20:09] <sudokill> why not use xchat
[20:10] <asdjaputra> leblinux, its on /etc/default/grub
[20:10] <guntbert> notsafe: you are scrolling the channel yourself - tell your client to ignore the join/part messages
[20:10] <asdjaputra> sudokill, type in sudo apt-get install sox
[20:10] <dieselz> I'm trying to port forward using ssh -L, and the output indicates that the port forwarding was successful, but running netstat -tpln shows nothing binding to the port I wanted to bind to... any ideas on how to debug this?
[20:10] <asdjaputra> sudokill, in terminal
[20:10] <notsafe> Guntbert, how?
[20:10] <asdjaputra> notsafe, are you on xchat?
[20:10] <notsafe> IRSSI
[20:11] <sudokill> asdfasdfa, im not actually using ubuntu but im googlig it
[20:11] <sudokill> asdjaputra, what about mpd?
[20:11] <guntbert> notsafe: see http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/Hide_join_part_messages
[20:11] <asdjaputra> sudokill, never heard that before
[20:11] <asdjaputra> sudokill, what about alsaplayer
[20:11] <Pici> notsafe: You can scroll up and scroll down using the pageup/pagedown messages. Or use the following.
[20:11] <Pici> !quietirssi | notsafe
[20:11] <leblinux> asdjaputra: the OS entries is not located in /etc/default/grub its in 30_os-prober and it can't be edited in startupmanager any more ideas?
[20:12] <sudokill> asdjaputra, yes i saw alsaplayer and wondered if it was any good
[20:12] <sudokill> asdjaputra, i liked the look of that
[20:12] <mtx1980> theres any chance to connect to another pc (windows 7) by another with ubuntu via wifi, bought my computers, i need to transfer some data to this one
[20:12] <jjjjoe> I copy some slides from another presentation from MS Office and paste em into LO and then when I try to create a new slide it will not allow me to use bulleted items list
[20:12] <asdjaputra> sudokill, it is, and its the default audio player in slitaz
[20:12] <notsafe> Thanks
[20:12] <asdjaputra> sudokill, so its minimal
[20:12] <edbian> notsafe: did you run that grub command?
[20:12] <notsafe> I idd
[20:12] <asdjaputra> leblinux, sudo nano /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
[20:12] <sudokill> asdjaputra, i think ill try alsaplayer
[20:12] <jjjjoe> Anyone good with Libre Office/Open Office  Impress
[20:13] <edbian> notsafe: did it say 'no errors reported?' ?
[20:13] <asdjaputra> sudokill, i recommend you to go to #ubuntu-bots
[20:13] <notsafe> It said it installed, but it also said: error:cannot stat 'aufs'.
[20:13] <leblinux> asdjaputra: yes but I need a GUI to edit it if there is.. and in 30_os-prober its a script like file.
[20:13] <notsafe> Then it also said 'no errors reported'.
[20:13] <cyper85> anyone experienced with Ubuntu or Linux in general?
[20:14] <asdjaputra> leblinux, i'll try to google it
[20:14] <edbian> notsafe: forget aufs (it's for a filesystem you don't have)
[20:14] <edbian> notsafe: We installed grub.  reboot, see if it works.
[20:14] <edbian> notsafe: Make sure you take out the CD
[20:14] <sudokill> asdfasdfa, obuntu bots?
[20:14] <asdjaputra> sudokill, nah, never mind
[20:14] <sudokill> lol
[20:14] <leblinux> its simple. All I need is to delete a boot entry in grub2 using any GUI software.
[20:14] <notsafe> Ahahaha! Edbian, I could kiss you now!
[20:14]  * notsafe kisses Edbian
[20:15] <notsafe> Thanks so much!
[20:15] <edbian> notsafe: ha  I'm that good huh
[20:15] <asdjaputra> leblinux, what i remember is its in /etc/default/grub, but the last time i mess with that i fall in the grub rescue mode
[20:15] <notsafe> Mo
[20:15] <edbian> cyper85 is mad at me (in PM) cause I don't know how to fix his problems
[20:15] <edbian> notsafe: Thanks
[20:15] <notsafe> No, you're better.
[20:15] <edbian> notsafe: Any other problems?
[20:15] <semitones> how can I find out how much gfx memory I have? aside from looking for the box?
[20:15] <cyper85> I'm not mad :)
[20:15] <cyper85> I'm mad at Ubuntu
[20:15] <edbian> oh good :)

[20:16] <edbian> jragon: who the heck are you!?
[20:16] <jragon> Notsafe...

[20:17] <notsafe> That's me alright =D
[20:17] <edbian> jragon: ha, ur welcome
[20:17] <notsafe> Thanks guys
[20:17] <asdjaputra> ok stop you're scrolling the channel
[20:17] <semitones> edbian: that says what I have but not how much memory it has
[20:17] <edbian> semitones: then IDK
[20:18] <edbian> sorry!
[20:18] <leblinux> asdjaputra:  looks like its not there to delete a windows 7(loader) entry... thanks anyways.
[20:18] <semitones> its cool :0
[20:18] <asdjaputra> leblinux, sorry
[20:18] <leblinux> asdjaputra: I think you need to manual edit 30_os-prober --- no gui :<
[20:19] <asdjaputra> leblinux, UNIX slogan: Where there is a shell, there is a way
[20:19] <asdjaputra> leblinux, good luck, sorry i can't help lol
[20:19] <aftertaf> Found the cause, but not the reason for my bug
[20:19] <leblinux> asdjaputra: I wonder why they made it more complicated the entries used to be in the grub file in Grub1...
[20:19] <aftertaf> kernel 2.6.38-10 is NOK
[20:19] <gertidon> i have 2 commands `first` and second`. How to redirect stdout of the `first` to stdin of the `second` ?
[20:19] <semitones> edbian: found it! lscps -v -s
[20:19] <aftertaf> kernel 2.6.38-8 is OK
[20:19] <edbian> semitones: yay
[20:20] <asdjaputra> leblinux, never tried legacy grub before
[20:20] <gertidon> the second command is `pygmentize`
[20:22] <aftertaf> kernel 38-10 messes up plymouth something bad
[20:22] <guntbert> gertidon: use |     like first | second
[20:24] <gertidon> guntbert: it doesn't work with `pygmentize` command
[20:24] <guntbert> gertidon: please paste the command line you entered
[20:24] <eoss> hello, why when i create a file does the group automatically go to www-data?
[20:25] <churly> I'm trying to get zenity or yap to work, without success, to make a system tray icon, but have failed.  is there an alternative program that creates tray icons from command line?
[20:25] <gertidon> guntbert: cat search.php |pygmentize
[20:26] <rgarrigue> Good evening
[20:26] <rgarrigue> I'm looking for a bit of help with a dual screen that won't wake up
[20:26] <vicky> hi there
[20:26] <vicky> hi
[20:27] <guntbert> gertidon: I don't know about pygmentize, but why don't you say : pygmentize serach.php ?
[20:27] <Guest22134> pie
[20:27] <Guest22134> balls
[20:27] <gertidon> guntbert: because i want to do some things like : cat -n search.php|pygmentize
[20:29] <tortib> Hello, is it possible to disable untiy and get the old gnome desktop back?
[20:29] <Thraspic> I'm trying to get zenity or yap to work, without success, to make a system tray icon, but have failed.  is there an alternative program that creates tray icons from command line?
[20:30] <itaylor57> gertidon, try cat file | xargs pygmentize
[20:30] <jimmy51_> is there a linux equivalent to HTA's?
[20:30] <gertidon> itaylor57: the same, it doesn't work
[20:30] <jimmy51_> (quick GUI thrown around a script)
[20:30] <abc123xyz> tortib: yeah, when you're logging in, just choose gnome as the desktop enviroment instead of unity
[20:30] <gertidon> documentation say : pygmentize is a command that uses Pygments to highlight the input file and write the result to <outfile>. If no <infile> is given, stdin is used.
[20:31] <gertidon> if you want to try : sudo apt-get install  python-pygments
[20:31] <guntbert> gertidon: does pyg.. output anything (just wrong) or nothing?
[20:32] <itaylor57> gertidon, I would do it in a perl script myself but off topic here
