[00:00] <MusicJunkieK1> ahh, sorry
[00:00] <TemperingPick> merl15: At what step does it ask you for a CD Drive?
[00:00] <coz_> panfist,  I do not
[00:00] <dominicdinada> merl15: there is prob 100 howto articles i will quick google for it and give you the results
[00:00] <MusicJunkieK1> my compositing is disabled on login, why does this keep happening?
[00:00] <dominicdinada> merl15: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC
[00:01] <dominicdinada> FIRST RESULT  on google
[00:01] <nerdy_kid> ok im confused; im compiling a wireless driver for ubuntu lucid: do i compile the mac80211 version or the IEEE80211?  thanks in advance
[00:01] <panfist> when a user is added to an ubuntu system, where is the default gnome configuration pulled from? it's not in /etc/skel ... i'm trying to use sabayon but it seems buggy and it's not working
[00:01] <ikonia> panfist: it's created upon login
[00:02] <dominicdinada> merl15: and here is how to PROPERLY make a live/usb installer
[00:02] <dominicdinada> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[00:02] <panfist> it's created upon login but it can't be created from nothing...what script defines what is created upon login
[00:03] <ikonia> panfist: the gnome binaries make the default settings, then writes them to file in the users home dir on login
[00:04] <Newbiez> can someone try to help me
[00:04] <merl15> dominicdinada, what about that link? The netbook-remix install iso works just fine after using UNetbootin. I want the alternate installer though and that one doesn't work. This is probably a UNetbootin issue, it not doing something quite right maybe. I'll take a look at that second link.
[00:04] <E8newallm> Anyone know how I can change the login sound?
[00:04] <ikonia> E8newallm: in the sounds setting
[00:04] <Blue1> Newbiez: sup?
[00:04] <Newbiez> i added 20 ip address in eth0, its work about 10 hours. but now, when i type ifconfig so i just see 3 of 20 ip's. i missing 17 another ip's. any suggestion ?
[00:04] <E8newallm> It doesn't offer any options for changing it
[00:05] <thune3> panfist: i'm not clear on this one but there is some stuff in /usr/share/gconf, and I think you set a file in /usr/share/gconf/defaults/ to change a default key.
[00:05] <E8newallm> Just for changing the sound theme.
[00:05] <nerdy_kid> what is the difference between mac80211 and IEE80211 and which does ubuntu use? (and please no wikipedias...been trying to fix a driver for 3 hours)
[00:05] <dominicdinada> merl15: I read in great depth of howtos on netbooks and myself personally i decided to go with Snow Leopard
[00:05] <Blue1> Newbiez: why would an ethernet port have 20 ip addresses?
[00:06] <E8newallm> Nobody know?
[00:06] <TemperingPick> merl15: Try this: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[00:06] <TemperingPick> if you are on Windows
[00:06] <ikonia> E8newallm: there is a sound theme editor, just looking for it
[00:06] <Newbiez> its possible. if i have 20 public ip's and assign all of the ip in one server
[00:06] <E8newallm> Is there?
[00:06] <merl15> dominicdinada, why's that? Also, I chose to go with the alternate Ubuntu installer because of its easy-to-set-up LVM "full disk encryption"
[00:06] <merl15> TemperingPick, not on Win
[00:06] <itsux2bu> anybody know if netsavy006 got his problem fixed?
[00:06] <dominicdinada> merl15: Mac ?
[00:06] <E8newallm> Will it be in the Synaptic?
[00:06] <Blue1> Newbiez: well you are obviously beyond me...
[00:07] <merl15> dominicdinada, Linux
[00:07] <ikonia> E8newallm: it used to be in the settings
[00:07] <rob_p> Newbiez: You can add them with ifconfig at the command prompt.
[00:07] <TemperingPick> I assume you followed the directions here then?
[00:07] <TemperingPick> http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[00:08] <dominicdinada> merl15: no you asked what Snow Leopard was and I was saying Mac? like you never heard of it
[00:08] <E8newallm> :/
[00:08] <merl15> dominicdinada, does Snow Leopard or any other OS X installer come with an option of easily setting up disk encryption? I was considering going with Gentoo and manually going through the whole tedious process but decided I'm not masochist enough to do that right now.
[00:08] <Jmisl> can anyone help me out with connecting to the internet while on ubuntu?
[00:08] <merl15> I asked "why's that?" not "what's that?" :)
[00:08] <itsux2bu> my mirc windows has a number 1366.. is that how many people are here?
[00:08] <itsux2bu> *window
[00:09] <scunizi> yep
[00:09] <TemperingPick> itsux2bu: Yes
[00:09] <itsux2bu> well damn..
[00:09] <Blue1> itsux2bu: yup
[00:09] <rob_p> Newbiez: If you want to add that many IP aliases to one interface, I'd suggest a simple shell script that you can have the system call upon booting.
[00:09] <Jmisl> How do i install wifi radar if i transfer it from a disk onto ubuntu?
[00:09] <dominicdinada> merl15: I never really looked into it, I don't have the time to leave a 4th OS in and out. a simple google result on it ??? but you would need to Cough Buy the OS
[00:10] <dominicdinada> learn not leave*
[00:10] <Blue1> Jmisl: sudo dpkg -i <somename>.deb
[00:10] <TemperingPick> merl15: You can use Truecypt to encypt.
[00:10] <TemperingPick> Works on Linux, Win, Mac
[00:10] <merl15> so dominicdinada, do tell why you would choose OS X for a netbook. Just got my first netbook ever and I'm still trying to decide what to put on it..
[00:11] <TemperingPick> OS X won't go on a Netbook easily.
[00:11] <dominicdinada> merl15: to see what the hype was about.
[00:11] <merl15> s/chose/choose
[00:11] <Blue1> merl15: I dual boot win 7 starter, and ubuntu netbook remix
[00:11] <Jmisl> do you know where i can download a working version of wifi radar for ubuntu 10.04?
[00:11] <dominicdinada> TemperingPick: check those sources again theres at least 50 youtube howtos for both linux and mac
[00:11] <Blue1> Jmisl: I do not -- I've never heard of it, sorry.
[00:11] <dominicdinada> dell mini 9 = gravy
[00:12] <Jmisl> well do you know how to enable wifi through the terminal?
[00:12] <alise> "Literally. Gravy."
[00:12] <Blue1> Jmisl: ifup
[00:12] <dominicdinada> infact before i first got one i did research of expandability and os's
[00:12] <TemperingPick> jmisl: This doesn't work
[00:12] <TemperingPick> sudo aptitude install wifi-radar
[00:12] <Jmisl> i dont have access to the internet while on ubuntu
[00:12] <TemperingPick> dominicdinada: Oh I know it'll work. I said easily.
[00:13] <Blue1> Jmisl: want kind of lan card to you have?
[00:13] <Blue1> Jmisl: wlan
[00:13] <TemperingPick> jmisl: You can try Softpedia.http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Networking/WiFi-Radar-3594.shtml
[00:13] <dominicdinada> TemperingPick: I was saying the videos on the tube for both Ubuntu/Osx made it so simple a 5 year old could do it
[00:13] <itsux2bu> of the 24875 channels the list command provided.. #ubuntu is the largest by 500+ of users
[00:13] <merl15> TemperingPick, yep, I know of Truecrypt. I actually make part of my living in the security field..I'm just exploring the other possibilities and options right now. I do kind of like the ease of setting up the LVM/dm-crypt with the alternate ubuntu installer or with Fedora. Other linux flavors really should offer a similar feature with their installers one way or another..
[00:14] <Jmisl> 1394 network adapter
[00:14] <Jmisl> my mistake
[00:14] <itsux2bu> freenode should be called PlanetUbuntu
[00:14] <Jmisl> Dell wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-Card
[00:14] <Blue1> Jmisl: could you please prepend your comments with my nick - that would help a lot - thanks.
[00:15] <Jmisl> Blue1: sure
[00:15] <dominicdinada> but Mac on a dell mini or any netbook gives you all the hype at a 10th of the cost
[00:15] <Blue1> !hcl
[00:15] <TemperingPick> merl15: Debian offers an option to do that as well.
[00:16] <merl15> TemperingPick, oh ok, nice. Thanks.
[00:16] <Jmisl> Blue1: I have installed ndiswrapper-common, ndiswrapper-utils, ndisgtk from the cd in that order
[00:16] <TemperingPick> dominicdinada: Okay, I believe you. :)
[00:16] <RenatoSilva> How to rename a user?
[00:17] <TemperingPick> merl15: and Red Hat 6 has that as well. The beta is from Red Hat's site. Just google it.
[00:17] <Blue1> RenatoSilva: edit hostname in /etc
[00:17] <RenatoSilva> Blue1: How to rename a user? Not just full name, not just /home/username, I want to change the login name itself.
[00:17] <Jmisl> Blue1: I have have also downloaded the dell drivers and installed them from the system/admin/windows wireless drivers
[00:18] <Blue1> Jmisl: it says here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDell that you might need the broadcom driver...
[00:18] <rob_p> Newbiez: http://pastebin.com/8S8ZucHY  <---  In case you're interested in a simple shell script that can add IP aliases.  It should be fairly self-explanatory.
[00:19] <Blue1> RenatoSilva: System/Administration/User and groups
[00:19] <itsux2bu> so there are man pages not just for commands but for their non-executing (non-binary) support files..?  ie.. i just read there is a man page for ssh-config ..
[00:19] <ESTALE> RenatoSilva:  usermod -l login-name old-name
[00:20] <Blue1> ESTALE: i'd forgotten that one - good catch...
[00:20] <ESTALE> Blue1: np
[00:20] <collabra> de'ja vous ~ serious ,... itsux2bu ,... didn't you say that same thing like an hour our two ago?

[00:23] <RenatoSilva> how to kill a user session? I tried to log in after renaming /home/username, now session is more or less open, can't log in sucessfully and can't log out either
[00:23] <itsux2bu> whats that other method of connecting to computers over the net? v-something
[00:24] <dominicdinada> merl15: what did you mean alternate installer ?
[00:24] <aeon-ltd> itsux2bu: vnc? vpn?
[00:24] <itsux2bu> vpn   i think
[00:25] <dominicdinada> 2 WAN connected via VPN? or u mean to control another pc VNC
[00:25] <AndrewMC> RenatoSilva, cntrl + alt + backspace?
[00:26] <itsux2bu> well a lot of bussiness have their employees telecomute using vpn i think.. why that over say.. ssh?
[00:26] <kox> anybody using ubuntu cloud?
[00:26] <RenatoSilva> AndrewMC: session is more or less open, can't log in sucessfully and can't log out either, can't do anything not even c+a+b
[00:26] <merl15> dominicdinada, Ubuntu has an "alternate" text based installer, which has the FDE feature. The normal graphical installer doesn't
[00:27] <merl15> the first google result on "alternate installer": http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors ;)
[00:27] <rockhopper> kox, m using jolicloud, whichs based on ubuntu
[00:27] <AndrewMC> RenatoSilva, restart??
[00:27] <dominicdinada> merl15: oh i see...
[00:27] <k1m3ut0n> boa noite a todos
[00:28] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: ahhh, it could be a vnc over vpn :O
[00:28] <k1m3ut0n> olá pessoal eu gostaria de saber como faço um jogo de windows rodar no ubuntu com a mesma velocidade!
[00:28] <xangua> !pt > k1m3ut0n
[00:28] <thune3> RenatoSilva: from console "gdm restart" maybe? it's unclear what you are trying to do exactly.
[00:28] <collabra> RenatoSilva : ctrl +alt + f1
[00:29] <xangua> !wine > k1m3ut0n
[00:29] <merl15> dominicdinada, thanks though. My netbook needs the Cat5e cable now.
[00:29] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: login remotely over a VPN and have a Virtual Desktop ,
[00:29] <kosaidpo> my ubut freez after my desktop shows up any idea how to fix it
[00:30] <Saguaro> Hey guys, in Ubuntu when I'm using Firefox, where do I browse  to find Deluge to set it as the default client for .torrents?
[00:30] <LorgonJortle> Howdy!
[00:30] <Saguaro> Would it be in /usr/bin?
[00:31] <gizmobay> when I plugin my headphones into my usb port the whole system freezes. How do I trouble shoot?
[00:32] <aeon-ltd> Saguaro: yes
[00:32] <xangua> Saguaro: edit>preferences>apps
[00:32] <LorgonJortle> I am trying to access the Admin share of a Win7 box from Ubuntu using either PsTools (WINE) or putty. PsTools gives an "Acess Denied", even when I specify the user and password.
[00:32] <RenatoSilva> AndrewMC, thune3, collabra: I've got it with ps aux | grep login and killing stuff
[00:32] <LorgonJortle> Would this be easier via putty?
[00:33] <collabra> RenatoSilva: right on...
[00:33] <dominicdinada> Anyhow GRRRRR at my problem. Why doesn't a remotely mounted filesystem have a path such a /media/ or /dev/ or etc... for use in such programs as netbeans etc.....
[00:33] <dugger5688> Hi everyone, I'm trying to come up with a workaround for nm-applet lacking fast user switching support. Is there a way to run a command when a user tries to initiate the switch?
[00:33] <d3s3rt3gl> Noob Here: Just installed U.N.E. -> How do I get a regular desktop not this sidebar stuff QUESTION Thanks
[00:33] <ESTALE> gizmobay: have you checked output in /var/log/messages
[00:33] <AndrewMC> dugger5688, when you say nm you mean network manager correct?
[00:33] <itsux2bu> vpn is better at graphics than ssh?
[00:34] <gizmobay> yes, I grepped for usb and Logitech
[00:34] <dugger5688> AndrewMC: yeah, they're part of the same package I believe (?)
[00:34] <gizmobay> didn't see anything at all
[00:34] <rockhopper> ikonia, are you there?
[00:34] <olskolirc> what is my video device please /dev/?
[00:34] <AndrewMC> dugger5688, well have you tried making the connecting avalible to all users
[00:35] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: ssh is command line vnc usually has a gui.... VPN is just a communications protocol... you need to learn to distinguish between them all otherwise you will confuse everyone you are talking to
[00:35] <collabra> olskolirc: usually /dev/video or /dev/video0
[00:35] <olskolirc> thanks
[00:35] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: ssh is usually commandline****
[00:35] <dugger5688> AndrewMC: I'll check that out.
[00:35] <itsux2bu> thx.. dominicdinada.. your right
[00:35] <ikonia> rockhopper: yes
[00:36] <LorgonJortle> What's the recommended way to access an Admin$ on Win7 from Ubuntu?
[00:36] <rockhopper> ikonia, I found out that the whole /var/lib/dpkg folder's being deleted..
[00:36] <ikonia> rockhopper: whoaaaaa
[00:36] <Maletor> Why do I get this error: swapon: /dev/md1: read swap header failed: Invalid argument when doing `sudo swapon -a`
[00:36] <rockhopper> ikonia, Is there any way to rebuild it?
[00:36] <Saguaro> I'm not seeing deluge in my /usr/bin
[00:36] <ikonia> rockhopper: what happened there
[00:36] <ikonia> rockhopper: no, you'll need to re-install dpkg for that, but as you've not got dpkg thats going to be a problem
[00:36] <Saguaro> is there somewhere else that applications are kept?
[00:36] <suprengr> d3s3rt3gl: revert to 9.04/9.10 [check which  one first]... its part of the user choices to switch to "full" desktop mode/display....  a [sadly] missing function in 10.04
[00:36] <dugger5688> AndrewMC: Just wondering does it work for you with fast user switching?
[00:36] <rockhopper> yeah..
[00:37] <gizmobay> maybe I'll try unplugging everything else to see if it works
[00:37] <AndrewMC> dugger5688, on a account that is connected to the network right click network manger>> edit the connection that you want all users to be able to connect to>> and in the bottom left of that window says make avaible to all users
[00:37] <d3s3rt3gl> @suprengr: oooooh :( Well thanks for the info, I think I will live with this I suppose (4 now)
[00:37] <rockhopper> ikonia, i have jolicloud installed on dualboot, which 's also based on ubuntu..
[00:37] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, i've used ssh from windows to my shared host account at godaddy and i used tinyvnc to take control of mom's desktop upstairs.. but never been exposed to vpn
[00:37] <AndrewMC> dugger5688, im not sure i only have one account on this PC
[00:37] <rockhopper> ikonia, Can i copy those files into the ubuntu's dpkg directory?
[00:37] <ikonia> rockhopper: you can chroot from a livecd (so it uses the ubuntu repos) and re-install it
[00:38] <ikonia> rockhopper: don't copy from another disro
[00:38] <aperson> has anyone gotten the webcollage screensaver working with driftnet?
[00:38] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, i didn't even know you can vnc over vpn
[00:38] <rockhopper> ikonia, ok
[00:38] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: ssh from windows? by default there is no client on windows for ssh, unless u got putty or something.
[00:38] <iflema> d3s3rt3gl logout and select gnome as the session......
[00:38] <Newbiez> thanks a lot for help. now i restart my server and using the script to add ip aliases. i hope this ip stay up without error. thx alot
[00:38] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, putty is a ssh client in windows
[00:39] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, yea.. i used putty
[00:39] <RenatoSilva> I created a new group for the user with the same id it seems. So all file permissions where that group is mentioned are not affected right? For example, the permission of file1 stands that the group is old-group. Because the new group has the same id, it will point to the new group automatically right?
[00:39] <dominicdinada> itsux2bu: putty is totally different from windows. it runs on windows but not apart or installed on any windows machine.  lol
[00:40] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, i know that.. sorry i phrased that wrong..
[00:40] <dominicdinada> errr not packaged with any windows installs unless it is a installer built via WAIK or so
[00:40] <dominicdinada> Anyhow GRRRRR at my problem. Why doesn't a remotely mounted filesystem have a path such a /media/ or /dev/ or etc... for use in such programs as netbeans etc.....
[00:40] <itsux2bu> dominicdinada, i should have said.. i've used the windows-based putty client to access my godaddy host account
[00:41] <dominicdinada> ok bbiab
[00:41] <olskolirc> did i modprobe right: sudo modprobe CX23416
[00:41] <olskolirc> FATAL: Module CX23416 not found
[00:41] <olskolirc> i don't have the pvr option in my vlc for tv
[00:41] <olskolirc> its gone
[00:42] <collabra> olskolirc: try cx23416   case sensitive,... maybe...?
[00:42] <olskolirc> thanks
[00:42] <suprengr> d3s3rt3gl: [I 'put up with it.' at first but ..its cool once you set favourites up to display your main apps in one place and you soon get used to it]... and learn how good the rationale was for a netbook.
[00:42] <olskolirc> still  not found how do i get that back collabra please?
[00:43] <d3s3rt3gl> what does it mean to make a file +X and how do i do it?
[00:43] <jrib> d3s3rt3gl: why do you want to?
[00:43] <d3s3rt3gl> @suprengr I think its all those years of seeing a desktop =P
[00:43] <collabra> olskolirc: i'm still learning myself,... i'm a kind of entry-level at the moment,... someone else would be better suited.
[00:44] <olskolirc> ok collabra
[00:44] <dugger5688> d3s3rt3gl: it makes it executable.
[00:45] <basix-> is there a openssh server for dummies?
[00:45] <jymmy> anyone know what is update-apt-xapi?
[00:45] <jrib> basix-: umm, why?
[00:45] <basix-> i'm a dummie when i come to it
[00:45] <basix-> i have the server running
[00:45] <basix-> but cannot connect to it from my windows machine
[00:45] <d3s3rt3gl> @jrib: I have a command i'm putting in a text file that I want to run (when i need it)
[00:45] <itsux2bu> basix-, using putty?
[00:45] <basix-> no
[00:45] <basix-> telnet
[00:46] <jrib> basix-: can you « ssh localhost » on the linux machine?
[00:46] <d3s3rt3gl> @dugger5688: thank you, and how to do?
[00:46] <basix-> do i need a different client for ssh?
[00:46] <itsux2bu> basix-, what you trying to use?
[00:46] <jrib> !permissions > d3s3rt3gl
[00:46] <basix-> jrib, i can
[00:46] <jrib> basix-: are the machines on the same network?
[00:46] <basix-> yes
[00:46] <itsux2bu> basix-, do yourself a favor..  get  putty
[00:46] <d3s3rt3gl> Thanks jrib I will read that now
[00:46] <jrib> basix-: how are you attempting to ssh exactly?
[00:46] <basix-> ok noted itsux2bu
[00:46] <itsux2bu> basix-, its free
[00:46] <basix-> jrib
[00:47] <basix-> i am using windows telnet app
[00:47] <wi> hi
[00:47] <jrib> indeed putty is the way to go on windows
[00:47] <dugger5688> basix- you want putty
[00:47] <basix-> and i am going to the ip that my router has assigned for my machine running openssh server
[00:47] <itsux2bu> basix-, i don't think telnet and ssh are the same thing
[00:47] <RenatoSilva> thanks all
[00:47] <basix-> i had a thought that may be the reason
[00:47] <dugger5688> basix- your server should also be statically assigned, not DHCP.
[00:47] <basix-> but was not sure
[00:48] <collabra> telnet doesn't encrypt the transmission
[00:48] <basix-> ok
[00:48] <collabra> ssh does
[00:48] <jrenner> hey guys I'm havin some issues connecting to wireless... anyone wanna gimme a hand?
[00:48] <basix-> so my problem is the client, i need putty to connect?
[00:48] <itsux2bu> basix-, i'm a newbie but have gone thru all this and i'm a windows user from wayback
[00:48] <collabra> basix: if you are trying to connect to an ssh server then yes you want putty
[00:48] <basix-> k
[00:49] <basix-> downloading putty then :)
[00:49] <nDuff> I'm getting warnings that "packages cannot be authenticated" even on upstream distro packages (most recently, openssl-doc). Is there a potential bug involved, or is someone doing something evil?
[00:49] <basix-> thx everyone i'm sure once i download it i'll have another problem lol
[00:49] <basix-> hopefully not
[00:49] <collabra> lol
[00:49] <basix-> big newb
[00:49] <collabra> it sure does seem that way huh.
[00:49] <jrenner> hey anyone wann help me wireless up and going?
[00:50] <collabra> the learning curve is very high with linux
[00:50] <basix-> what is the diff between staitc ip
[00:50] <basix-> and dhcp?
[00:50] <basix-> dhcp is like <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:50] <KB1JWQ> collabra: I'd argue the learning curve is very high with computers; it's not specific to Linux.
[00:50] <basix-> static is? my IP the my ISP gives me?
[00:50] <itsux2bu> basix-, there are 2 types of IP addresses
[00:50] <collabra> dhcp allocate the ip automatically static is just that static one ip that it always uses
[00:50] <nDuff> basix-, DHCP means that a server on your network (or your router, or such) is assigning you an address
[00:50] <nDuff> basix-, static means you're putting in your system's IP address manually
[00:51] <itsux2bu> basix-, static and dynamic
[00:51] <basix-> k
[00:51] <itsux2bu> basix-, static stays the same.. dynamic can change
[00:51] <collabra> what he saidd
[00:52] <Aliselyn> hey, I'm having a bit of trouble with my laptop getting the dialup working on 10.04. Does anyone here know much about this, and might be able to help me out?
[00:52] <dugger5688> basix- most likely your external IP is dynamic as it is assigned by your ISP. Unless you make it a habit of turning of ur modem for several days though it will often remain the same for a year or so.
[00:52]  * nDuff checks the checksum for his openssl-doc package against packages.ubuntu.com, and the checksums match...
[00:52] <Faithful> in the UK which company has the best mobile broadband coverage?
[00:52] <suprengr> basix-:  its the same as in windows
[00:52] <jrenner> hey guys how do I get the internet icon to reappear in my panel
[00:52] <itsux2bu> basix-, DHCP assigns dynamic ip addresses
[00:52] <basix-> okay
[00:52] <Faithful> jrenner, you must run network manager in you login
[00:53] <itsux2bu> basix-, DHCP ip addresses come from you ISP
[00:53] <suprengr> basix-: but linux / unix is more secure... and at that poimt ...over to the experts
[00:53] <basix-> so if i reset my modem i will have to mess with router config for my laptop to connect to the network again?
[00:53] <jrenner> Faithful: what's the command?
[00:53] <jymmy> anyone know what is the process name update-apt-xapi ??
[00:53] <basix-> if i use static over DHCP
[00:53] <scunizi>  I'm having issues with my laptop getting much hotter than it did on 9.10.  I did a fresh install for 10.04 keeping the original /home.  What do I look for to diagnose this?
[00:53] <collabra> basix- : ubuntu defaults to dhcp,... automatic ip allocation,... just like windows
[00:53] <dugger5688> jrenner: Did you switch users with fast user switching?
[00:53] <Faithful> jrenner, system --> prefs --> startup apps
[00:54] <skered> I'm dealing with someone that removed the top panel from the default Gnome install (Apps, Places, System,....., Network, etc...$)
[00:54] <basix-> k
[00:54] <skered> How do you get that panel back?
[00:54] <basix-> i am connected to my computer now with Putty btw
[00:54] <jrenner> okay its there...
[00:54] <collabra> basix- : if your internet service provider gives you a static ip,...  they would have told you
[00:54] <jrenner> but its not in my panel....
[00:54] <basix-> appreciate the help on that one ;)
[00:54] <jrenner> it goes in the notification area right?
[00:54] <itsux2bu> basix-, well in theory you'll get a new ip address whenever you reboot your router.. but my isp usually gives me the same IP
[00:54] <basix-> ah ok
[00:55] <Faithful> jrenner, you need to have the system notification applet running on your panel
[00:55] <basix-> i am using a linksys wireless-G router
[00:55] <itsux2bu> basix-, you just can't count on it..
[00:55] <jrenner> Faithful: I do
[00:55] <ChogyDan> scunizi: you might be better off filing a bug report against linux: ubuntu-bug -p linux
[00:55] <scunizi> ChogyDan: I'll do that..  thanks
[00:55] <itsux2bu> basix-, but your router most likely has DHCP server in it too
[00:55] <basix-> okay
[00:56] <ChogyDan> !panels | skered
[00:56] <basix-> i can change it?
[00:56] <basix-> or no?
[00:56] <jrenner> lemme try and relog
[00:56] <basix-> because right now I cannot connect to my laptop through SSH unless i am on the network, correct?
[00:56] <itsux2bu> basix-, with most routers i believe you can have both
[00:56] <basix-> k
[00:56] <collabra> basix: sure,... you can configure your router to use static ip's,... but it's so much more convienient to use dhcp
[00:57] <itsux2bu> basix-, let the router give each device a dynamic IP.. but you can assign a static one if you want
[00:57] <basix-> haha ok
[00:57] <basix-> im a bit confused
[00:58] <itsux2bu> dynamic is automatic.. static is manual.. once..
[00:58] <basix-> with dynamic can i connect to my laptop outside of the network?
[00:58] <collabra> basix- : if you were setting up a server behind your router,... you would want to use a static ip for it,... then, you would always know the ip address for your other machines to connect to it
[00:58] <chobaz-kun> mhhh
[00:59] <basix-> ok
[00:59] <UbuntuNoob> !terminal
[00:59] <basix-> exit
[01:00] <basix-> wrong keyboard..
[01:00] <collabra> lol
[01:00] <itsux2bu> basix-, what makes this a bit more confusing.. is that you have 2 ip addresses.. one between you isp and router..  and one between router and devices connect to it
[01:00] <Faithful> basix-, you more root passwds that way than any other
[01:01] <Renski> 1337 channel members :)
[01:01] <dugger5688> Limitations of IPv4 :-)
[01:01] <basix-> ok
[01:01] <jrenner> so it didn't work :(
[01:01] <collabra> should we get into the elegant frustration of NAT routing,..?
[01:01] <Faithful> did you reboot the machine?
[01:02] <Faithful> jrenner, ?
[01:02] <itsux2bu> collabra, no.. his brain will pop
[01:02] <collabra> lol
[01:02] <basix-> difficult if i want to use an IP address inbetween my route and devices connecting to it, how to i get an IP for that?
[01:02] <itsux2bu> poor guy is having enough to get his brain around
[01:02] <basix-> sry bout the typos
[01:02] <jrenner> i tried relogging and the nm-applet still isn't there :(
[01:03] <ChogyDan> basix-: does your router have port forwarding?  That is the easiest...
[01:03] <thune3> nDuff: i used to know this, but now... "sudo apt-key list" do you have " Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key"?
[01:03] <dugger5688> jrenner: Are you using fast user switching?
[01:03] <Faithful> jrenner, is there another user on the box?
[01:03] <collabra> basix- : you would usually point your internet browser either at <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS> and configure your router
[01:03] <basix-> Port Range Forward?
[01:03] <basix-> collabra, i'm in my router now
[01:03] <collabra> basix- : exactly
[01:03] <jrenner> dugger: no
[01:03] <basix-> okay
[01:03] <jrenner> Faithful: yes
[01:03] <Renski> basix-, you should get yourself on a network course, or if able to learn that way, a few good books and a network to play with
[01:04] <jrenner> Faithful:  its not really an important account (aka I could delete and care less)
[01:04] <dugger5688> jrenner: I think you are, log out all users then log on with your account. It will probably by back.
[01:04] <basix-> haha i know
[01:04] <nathan_> hey guys i need your help with flash
[01:04] <itsux2bu> basix-, how many PC's connected to you router?
[01:04] <basix-> should take a class at the local junior college
[01:04] <basix-> itsux2bu, 2 pcs
[01:05] <nathan_> it seems to be a little glicthy with flash games in ubunut
[01:05] <collabra> basix- : if you want to assign a specific computer to an ip ,... a static ip,... connect that computer to your router and ,... well,... choose i think the LAN setting and assign a static ip for that machine based on your MAC address
[01:05] <sacarlson> Renski: who needs a course when we have google and you to teach us.
[01:05] <itsux2bu> basix-, good.. thats a network..
[01:05] <nathan_> firefox
[01:05] <ChogyDan> basix-: please don't use enter as punctuation
[01:05] <hexbomber> This is a noob question :( I am trying to setup a quad monitor display for the first time on Ubuntu, and I am running into some problems with xinerama, there is a supposed patch for my problems available here: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=35383 although, I am not sure how to apply this patch :(
[01:05] <Aliselyn> Anyone with experience with dialup?
[01:05] <aircha> anyone have potato chips ?
[01:05] <aperson> has anyone gotten the webcollage screensaver working with driftnet?  I've edited the /usr/share/applications/screensavers/webcollage.desktop file, is there anywhere else I should edit?
[01:05] <miststlkr> aircha: BBQ or sour cream??
[01:06] <aperson> !ot
[01:06] <ironfoot495> hello IU just installed gnome-chess and I need to know how to find servers for it. Is there a way to find them???
[01:06] <miststlkr> wondering if someone could point me at the .menu file for the System menu in 10.04 please
[01:06] <ChogyDan> jrenner: what happens when you run nm-applet?
[01:06] <nDuff> thune3, two of them (dated 2004-09-12 and 2004-12-30).
[01:07] <UbuntuNoob> when i want to install a program and i go to terminal and type sudo apt-get after that how do i know what the package name for it is? do i have to find their website and it will tell me?
[01:07] <aeon-ltd> miststlkr: why?
[01:07] <sacarlson> miststlkr: I think it's at the top of the screen 3rd place over from the left?
[01:07] <aperson> UbuntuNoob, there's tab complete, other wise I just use aptitude search
[01:07] <jrenner> ChogyDan: nm-applet is already runnig
[01:07] <jrenner> *running
[01:07] <hexbomber> UbuntuNoob: sudo apt-cache search packageName
[01:07] <ChogyDan> hexbomber: have you tried maverick?
[01:08] <hexbomber> ChogyDan: maverick?
[01:08] <ChogyDan> jrenner: have you reset your panels?
[01:08] <basix-> ok sweet
[01:08] <UbuntuNoob> aperson: how do i use aptitude search? like what hexbomber said?
[01:08] <sihnu> hello, could someone help me? I compiled a development version of package and now I would like to get rid of it but I just don't know how
[01:08] <basix-> i got it all figured out i think
[01:08] <basix-> ;)
[01:08] <jrenner> yup
[01:08] <sihnu> I would like to reinstall the older version
[01:09] <aperson> UbuntuNoob, yes
[01:09] <ChogyDan> hexbomber: it is the development version of ubuntu, it has a new xorg which may have the patch.
[01:09] <hexbomber> ChogyDan: No, It took me 3 weeks to get Lucid up and running :(
[01:09] <aperson> UbuntuNoob, they're both essentially the same thing
[01:09] <ChogyDan> hexbomber: you could try a live install, just to test it
[01:09] <thune3> nDuff: if you "sudo apt-get update" you still get the probem (was this just a bum update)?
[01:09] <Faithful> jrenner, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-applet-missing-from-notification-area-in-ubuntu-10-04.html
[01:10] <sacarlson> sihnu: normaly they tell you how in the readme files of the tar package.  I think each is a bit different.
[01:10] <hexbomber> is there anyway to just update Lucidś xorg to mavericks?
[01:10] <Faithful> jrenner, method 1 for you
[01:10] <thune3> nDuff: and the  2004-12-30 should be the "Ubuntu CD Image" key
[01:10] <ChogyDan> sihnu: how did compile and install it?
[01:10] <nDuff> thune3, I ran an "apt-key update", and can no longer reproduce the problem.
[01:11] <thune3> nDuff: so you're fixed!
[01:11] <nDuff> yup -- thanks!
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> hey all is there an email client which has a web frontend like the webui transmission has?
[01:11] <sihnu> I followed the instructions in tha package I downloaded
[01:11] <sihnu> like ./configure --> make --> make install etc
[01:12] <sihnu> I can't find anything about removing the package
[01:12] <ChogyDan> sihnu: then I think your only option is to try something like make uninstall.  But you have to read the directions in the package you downloaded
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> sihnu: you could make a deb using checkinstall, install the deb, then remove it
[01:13] <UbuntuNoob> aperson: after i search and i find what i wanted, how to i install it? sudo apt-get packagename?
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> UbuntuNoob: close: sudo apt-get install packagename
[01:13] <UbuntuNoob> thanks
[01:14] <Faithful> jrenner, killall nm-applet then restart it again with Alt+F2 nm-applet.
[01:14] <sihnu> ActionParsnip, how can I do that?
[01:15] <UbuntuNoob> say i install something and i dont want it anymore, what is the command to delete it?
[01:15] <chrysanthemum> UbuntuNoob: sudo apt-get remove packagename
[01:15] <giannis> hello
[01:15] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: I think I found your mail client http://www.builderau.com.au/program/linux/soa/Set-up-Web-based-e-mail-quickly-using-SquirrelMail/0,339028299,339281027,00.htm   there is a ubuntu package as well
[01:15] <Faithful> jrenner, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/possible-solutions-to-fix-the-missing-network-manager-icon-in-ubuntu-9-10.html
[01:16] <ActionParsnip> sihnu: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/01/how-to-create-deb-package-ubuntu-debian.html
[01:16] <giannis> could anyone help me
[01:16] <UbuntuNoob> !ask | giannis
[01:16] <Faithful> giannis, anyone definitly cannot help... but someone might be able to.
[01:17] <giannis> how can i connect my laptop with tv with hdmi
[01:17] <giannis> i;m in ubuntu
[01:17] <UbuntuNoob> thanks chrysanthemum
[01:18] <Faithful> giannis, you have hdmi out on you notebook?
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: i'll look into it, cheers :)
[01:18] <giannis> yes
[01:18] <giannis> i have
[01:18] <Faithful> plug it in
[01:19] <giannis> i plugged but nothing
[01:19] <LorgonJortle> Hi!
[01:19] <Faithful> if the driver you are using supports it... then look in system --> prefs --> monitors
[01:19] <Faithful> giannis, or reboot with it plugged in.
[01:20] <LorgonJortle> I want to mount a windows share in ubuntu. I've tried: mount -t cifs //computer-name /mnt/ -o username=theusername
[01:20] <Faithful> LorgonJortle, that is not how you use it
[01:20] <giannis> did;nt have ubuntu any application for this??
[01:20] <Faithful> a computer name is not mountable
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> LorgonJortle: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> oops
[01:21] <LorgonJortle> I reckoned it was a pointer.
[01:21] <LorgonJortle> Sorry 'bout that.
[01:21] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: I've had some trouble with that, you mean you want to mount a folder that is on a windows system?  It easier to share a ubuntu folder with windows.
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> LorgonJortle: i have mine in my fstab: //fileserver/Leanne /home/andy/Fileserver/Leanne smbfs username=***,password=***,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[01:21] <LorgonJortle> Yeah, I want to access Windows from ubunty
[01:22] <LorgonJortle> Ubuntu*
[01:23] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: that's cool anything need changing on the windows side?  I'll give that a try.
[01:23] <rpj8> Is there anyway to resize my lvm partition so that I may install windows on newly freed up space?
[01:23] <Faithful> LorgonJortle, cifs not smbfs
[01:23] <UbuntuNoob> is there a way to share itunes wirelessly from my windows desktop to rhythmbox on ubuntu laptop like itunes can share between itunes?
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: for the share, you'll need an account with a password, I know windows users love to have no passwords
[01:23] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: oh and those *** do I need real passwords?  what if my windows has no password?
[01:23] <giannis> how can i record a program from tv to my laptop?
[01:23] <giannis> ela s parakalw
[01:23] <LorgonJortle> So what command can I use to do this manually, as a command?
[01:24] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: yes you'll need real passwords and the account you use will need appropriate rights to the share
[01:24] <Lancelot> giannis: if you just want to get video in you can get a capture card
[01:24] <sihnu> I tried sudo make uninstall and I reinstalled but now I can't seem to open the program. It reads: bash: /usr/local/bin/ncmpcpp: No such file or directory"
[01:24] <giannis> how does it cost?
[01:24] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: ok yes I think that's why I have problems. ok just need a windows with an account got it thanks.  hear that LorgonJortle?
[01:24] <giannis> it is external??
[01:25] <LorgonJortle> I've an Admin account on the given computer, sacarlson.
[01:25] <Lancelot> giannis: it depends on which one you get. They range from about 60 to a few hundred. Not all are external, you can get cards that go in PCI slots, or use USB
[01:25] <Faithful> LorgonJortle, you were heading in the right direction with your mount command you just have it complete
[01:26] <LorgonJortle> by specifying the sahre...
[01:26] <LorgonJortle> share*
[01:26] <giannis> how it connect?
[01:26] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: yes but do you have to login at boot?  it must have a password on the windows side.
[01:26] <sihnu> Hey, I had to just restart terminal. It is working now and is the right version :-)
[01:26] <billy__> hi does anyone know of a gui app for configuring apparmor?
[01:26] <UbuntuNoob> what is the command to update sources from terminal?
[01:27] <Andrew_708476> How do I type in Ubuntu Beginers into the Channel
[01:27] <LorgonJortle> Faithful: So, //computer-name/Admin$ ??
[01:27] <TiK> sources? dunno
[01:27] <TiK> sudo apt-get upgrae does upgrades...
[01:27] <Faithful> Yuk no...
[01:27] <Faithful> Leanne ?
[01:27] <LorgonJortle> Or, it's a folder...
[01:27] <DasEi> !register > Andrew_708476
[01:27] <Faithful> LorgonJortle, it is the share name
[01:27] <sihnu> oh well, thanks mates! :-)
[01:27] <LorgonJortle> I want the admin share.
[01:28] <Dravekx> I have lamp installed on ubuntu server. Made a webpage with a form and submit button. can someone tell me how to send it without it asking for a local mail program?
[01:28] <Andrew_708476> I find it difficult
[01:28] <Lancelot> giannis: depends on the one you get, some have HDMI, some have component, it varies with each card
[01:28] <LorgonJortle> Dravekx: Send it where?
[01:28] <DasEi>  Andrew_708476 : ask in #freenode for irc-related questions
[01:28] <giannis> this card it is ok for ubuntu??
[01:28] <giannis> it depends drivers?
[01:29] <Lancelot> it depends on which one you get
[01:29] <Lancelot> yes
[01:29] <Divecks> hey guys, I'm loving Ubuntu, but not the number of times I'm asked for my password. I get that it makes things more secure, but it gets extremely annoying, and there's almost nothing on my machine of value. Is there any way to stop the constant password prompt boxes (in Lucid)?
[01:29] <LorgonJortle> Dravekx: mailto: is going to ask for an application
[01:29] <itsux2bu> Dravekx, thats a complex question
[01:29] <Faithful> LorgonJortle, you can try but might have to quote or backslash the $
[01:29] <Dravekx> LorgonJortle, I want the information sent to my email account on godaddy. I know the smtp server, but not sure how to make it work.
[01:29] <ChogyDan> Dravekx: you might be able to just write a script that logs the answer to a file
[01:29] <Lancelot> Dicvecks: the whole point of those, is to provide root access
[01:29] <Dravekx> ChogyDan, would that be PHP?
[01:29] <itsux2bu> Dravekx, yes
[01:29] <ChogyDan> Dravekx: yes
[01:30] <Dravekx> thanks guys :)
[01:30] <Lancelot> Divecks: I'm not actually sure how to disable the prompts. I find them quite handy
[01:30] <mom> how long should i wait for a 930 GB drive to format to fat32?
[01:30] <Lancelot> Question, I wanna setup karmic on a machine, and there are several packages I want to install. However I can't connect this machine to the internet. How can I get updates/packages over to the machine?
[01:31] <DasEi> !ssh > nimbiotics
[01:31] <Vespero> Question: I messed around with my xorg.conf in an attempt to get a decent resolution on my new moniter (didn't work) AND now my screen won't show up. I reloaded my back-up xorg.conf but it didn't work. Help?
[01:31] <ChogyDan> !offline | Lancelot
[01:31] <picard1400>  hey goes does hte m2tech hiface work in Ubuntu?
[01:31] <picard1400> are the drivers supported
[01:31] <Lancelot> !AptonCD | Lancelot
[01:32] <Divecks> Lancelot: I know what they're there for. But they're unnecessary. Surely there must be a way to just enable commonly used applications, like administration apps and the software center..
[01:32] <mom> its usb
[01:32] <Lancelot> ChogyDan: that takes care of the synaptic packages, but how about updates to the kernel and such?
[01:32] <Yashy> Can someone help me debug what appears to be an X Windowing issue? http://pastebin.com/78aMB1Lr
[01:33] <DasEi> !putty > nimbiotics
[01:34] <sacarlson> Divecks: I just setup that I don't need a password for sudo and make a script with sudo application or add it to menu in the command
[01:35] <Andrew_708476> Does anyone know how you should go about properly installing Ubuntu because when I install it, it wont let me log into the Home folder on the Terminal
[01:36] <sacarlson> Andrew_708476: does the cd boot disk run in try mode?
[01:36] <n4xus> I had to totally redo my partitions to make unbuntu
[01:36] <Andrew_708476> yes
[01:36] <Andrew_708476> its got that option
[01:36] <Jordan_U> Andrew_708476: What do you mean by "log into the home folder"?
[01:36] <n4xus> Andrew used Rip linux
[01:37] <Andrew_708476> I dont know thats what my friend in the USA said
[01:37] <n4xus> Andrew are you familiar with "Rip linux"?

[01:37] <Andrew_708476> no
[01:37] <LorgonJortle> so I don't know what share to mount.
[01:37] <LorgonJortle> I've always just use PsTools, which uses the Admin$.
[01:38] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: you should mount it with nautilus first to make it easy to find.
[01:38] <LorgonJortle> I get: mount error: could not resolve address for Tristens-Laptop: No address associated with hostname
[01:38] <LorgonJortle> but: smbclient Tristens-Laptop shows that it finds it
[01:39] <Andrew_708476> I dont know if i should stay with Ubuntu or go to Mandrive 2008.1
[01:39] <LorgonJortle> Ubuntu
[01:39] <n4xus> Andrew : (R)ecovery (I)s (P)ossible Linux rescue system disk
[01:39] <n4xus> RIP
[01:39] <n4xus> Andrew google it.
[01:40] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: can you see your windows box  in Places>network
[01:40] <Andrew_708476> where can you get a rescue disk from
[01:40] <LorgonJortle> It's there.
[01:40] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: and If you double click on it what do you see?
[01:40] <n4xus> andrew http://rip.7bf.de/current/
[01:40] <n4xus> or just google it
[01:41] <LorgonJortle> Opening...
[01:41] <LorgonJortle> Ugh, all this time I've been flondling the mount command... and it was in Nautilus
[01:41] <LorgonJortle> haha
[01:41] <LorgonJortle> there's ADMIN$ and C$
[01:41] <sacarlson> LorgonJortle: yes try the easy way first
[01:42] <yonahw> I have a new installation of ubuntu 10.04. I installed adobe flash player and it is set as the swf content plugin in firefox. When I go to www.speedtest.net I can't click on begin test. What should I be checking for this?
[01:43] <n4xus> yonahw: www.speakeasy.net/speedtest
[01:43] <olskolirc> how do I upgrade my kernel from 2.6.31-22-generic on karmic to the current lucid kernel....I'm on Lucid
[01:44] <n4xus> Yohahw:l please look at your about:plugins in your browser
[01:44] <yonahw> n4xus: thanks I appreciate the link but my real concern at the moment isn't so much the speedtest as much as the flash not working
[01:44] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: is linux-generic installed?
[01:44] <sacarlson> yonahw: it works ok for me  7meg down 1 meg up
[01:44] <olskolirc> yes ChogyDan
[01:44] <n4xus> OK copy your flash file to your /home/name/.mozillia/plugin directory
[01:44] <n4xus> dont for get to set permissions
[01:45] <ChogyDan> yonahw: just remove the swf package
[01:45] <olskolirc> i chose to "keep" the old kernel by accident ChogyDan when i went from karmic to Lucid
[01:45] <n4xus> OK copy your flash file to your /home/name/.mozillia/plugins directory
[01:45] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: if you have linux-generic installed, then you should have the new kernel
[01:46] <ChogyDan> yonahw: sudo apt-get remove gnash maybe
[01:46] <yonahw> I am rather confused, n4xus what is my flash file that I should be copying? ChogyDan what will play flash if I remove the swf package?
[01:46] <littlegirl> My son would like to play DVDs in Ubuntu 10.04. He installed ubuntu-restricted-extras. He already had libdvdread4 which the Ubuntu wiki says to install. He then followed the Ubuntu wiki's instructions and typed sudo /usr/share/libdvdread4/install-css.sh and rebooted. He has tried viewing the DVD in Mplayer and VLC and both programs have the same error. He's getting object artifacting (lots of cool little colored blocks moving
[01:46] <littlegirl> everywhere, and he can partially see the image beneath them. He also get stuttery sound). Any idea what he should do to fix it?
[01:46] <n4xus> Download the flashplayer.so file
[01:46] <n4xus> its called libflashplayer.so
[01:46] <olskolirc> ChogyDan, this is my uname: 2.6.31-22-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 28 01:57:06 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:47] <yonahw> ChogyDan: I don't have gnash installed
[01:47] <n4xus> copy that into your home/yonahw/.mozilla/plugins directory
[01:47] <yonahw> n4xus: firefox seems to see that file libflashplayer
[01:47] <n4xus> remember to set your permissions
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> littlegirl:  personally I Rip dvd'd to avi or other video file formats with Handbreak or other tools.
[01:47] <sacarlson> n4xus: the package install should do all that stuf for them.  I just installed extras package that includes java and flash
[01:47] <n4xus> ok check your permissions yonahw
[01:48] <olskolirc> its still the Karmic kernel ChogyDan but I'm on Lucid now.
[01:48] <littlegirl> Dr_Willis: Thanks, but what if he wants to watch them from the drive?
[01:48] <n4xus> try and give the libflashplayer.so  chmod 755 libflashplayer.so
[01:48] <yonahw> n4xus: I don't have a .mozilla/plugins I have .mozilla/firefox but no plugins under there either
[01:48] <n4xus> OMG I could never get the .deb packages to work for me.
[01:49] <n4xus> I even had to  do my jave manually
[01:49] <n4xus> jave sorry
[01:49] <yonahw> grep returns /home/yonahw/.mozilla/firefox/z5nsnhcu.default/pluginreg.dat:npwrapper.libflashplayer.so:$ and /home/yonahw/.mozilla/firefox/z5nsnhcu.default/pluginreg.dat:/var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so:$
[01:50] <n4xus> create a plugins directory in the .mozilla directory
[01:50] <sacarlson> yonahw: you should just install the full extras package  maybe remove that swf thing you put in not sure.  maybe it's just you don't have java installed also. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[01:50] <yonahw> sacarlson: I think the java is probably the issue I haven't install java
[01:51] <sacarlson> yonahw: well the extras will install that also
[01:51] <mom> how many hours should i wait for gparted to format a 930 GiB USB drive?
[01:51] <ChogyDan> yonahw: update-alternatives --config firefox-flashplugin
[01:51] <edbian> yonahw, I have noticed that if you have more than one flash player on Ubuntu firefox will get confused when you try to play a flash video or likewise.  You should make sure you only have 1 installed at a time.
[01:51] <mom> it doesnt say how much is finished :P
[01:52] <yonahw> I am going to try install the restricted formats and see how that goes
[01:52] <sacarlson> yonahw: just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:52] <yonahw> thank you all for your help I really appreciate it
[01:52] <IdleOne> mom:  that could take a while
[01:52] <n4xus> You dont need java to make flash work
[01:52] <yonahw> sacarlson: it's in the middle of installing :)
[01:52] <sacarlson> n4xus: but you need java to make most web sites work
[01:52] <yonahw> n4xus: I understand that but there may be java as well
[01:52] <LorgonJortle> So now that I have it mounted via Nautilus, how would I go about running cmd.exe from the remote computer in the terminal?
[01:52] <Yashy> Can someone help me debug what appears to be an X Windowing issue? http://pastebin.com/78aMB1Lr
[01:52] <yonahw> flash does work on some pages which was the weird part
[01:52] <n4xus> Just down load flash from the sight. extract it. follow the directions
[01:53] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: can you pastebin: apt-cache policy linux-generic  ?
[01:53] <mom> IdleOne, like overnight?
[01:53] <n4xus> is really easy
[01:53] <Divecks> does changing the sudo timeout also effect gksudo?
[01:53] <ChogyDan> yonahw: did you run that command?
[01:53] <philter> Does anyone know how to update VLC on 10.04? VLC's site says the 1.0.6 version should be updated
[01:53] <olskolirc> ok ChogyDan
[01:53] <IdleOne> mom: I have never formatted such a large partition to be honest. but couple hours I would assume at least
[01:53] <ChogyDan> philter: enable the backports repo
[01:53] <sacarlson> n4xus: that package I gave him does that and also installs java and all the codec to play video formats and music
[01:53] <Maletor> sudo umount /dev/md1 gives me resource is busy and lsof /dev/md1 gives me nothing. What do?
[01:53] <mom> IdleOne, its been going for about an hour
[01:53] <ESTALE> try umount -f ?
[01:53] <IdleOne> mom: wait another hour or so.
[01:54] <Guest13643> Hey all! I compiled glib 2.25 and installed it from source, now I want to downgrade to glib 2.23 but I don't know how to uninstall glib 2.25.Can anyone help me with uninstall process?
[01:54] <UbuntuNoob> how do i get shared music from itunes on rhythmbox? i enabled daap and im not sure what to connect to because i typed in the host ip and port 3689 and it said couldnt connect to host
[01:54] <mom> IdleOne, i think this computer is usb 1.1 if that makes a difference
[01:54] <yonahw> ChogyDan: I didn't I just went for the brute force of installing restricted
[01:54] <itsux2bu> mom, usb?  1tb drive?
[01:54] <Maletor> ESTALE: -f gives /:device is busy.
[01:54] <philter> ChogyDan: I do have it enabled, but synaptic still shows 1.0.6
[01:54] <olskolirc> in short ChogyDan I lost my module CX23416 modprobe says it not found and now I can't use vlc for my pvr wintv tuner card
[01:55] <olskolirc> how do I get that module back ChogyDan
[01:55] <mom> itsux2bu, ltb?
[01:55] <yonahw> ChogyDan: I tried running that command and it tells me ther is only onalternative in group and nothing to configure
[01:55] <mom> itsux2bu, oh 1tb yep
[01:56] <n4xus> sacarlson I appreciate your package advise. personally I have had alot of problems installing java and flash from packages
[01:56] <n4xus> I finally figured it all out
[01:56] <babyju> folks I am running lucid and don't have any ttys in /dev. I am trying to make a serial connection. Any idea how I get my ttys back?
[01:56] <Maletor> ESTALE: anything else I can try?
[01:56] <yonahw> I tried installing the restricted formats and restarting firefox but still no go luck with speedtest.net. Adobe does however see that I have flash installed and working
[01:56] <sacarlson> n4xus: last 3 installs worked for me
[01:57] <itsux2bu> mom, over night maybe
[01:57] <babyju> I am running lucid amd64 if that makes a difference
[01:57] <UbuntuNoob> how do i find the location of a program i just downloaded in terminal?
[01:57] <mom> itsux2bu, im going to try to install multiboot linux oses
[01:57] <itsux2bu> usb is sslooooww
[01:57] <yonahw> n4xus: which site are you referring to when you say to just download and install?
[01:57] <Maletor> ESTALE: fuser -m /dev/md1 gives me a bunch of unumbers 1900rce starting 2467re ending
[01:57] <sacarlson> n4xus: maybe you run 64bit system?  not sure it works there.
[01:57] <n4xus> sacarlson. I million things can go wrong with installations. just because it work for you doesnt mean it will work for him
[01:58] <itsux2bu> too bad you don't have Esata or USB3
[01:58] <sacarlson> n4xus: very true
[01:58] <yonahw> I am running 64bit probably should have mentioned that earlier
[01:58] <edbian> UbuntuNoob, Open the synaptic package manager.  Locate the same package and look at it's properties.
[01:58] <ChogyDan> philter: yah, I was wrong on that,  I dunno, wait for maverick I guess
[01:58] <sacarlson> yonahw: yes you should have
[01:58] <edbian> UbuntuNoob, Or I can just tell you the actual executable program is probably in /usr/bin
[01:58] <philter> Okay no problem
[01:58] <mom> itsux2bu, i just wish gparted had a $#@$ progress bar
[01:58] <edbian> UbuntuNoob, :)
[01:58] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: it still seems like you should have the current kernel
[01:58] <sacarlson> yonahw: I don't think flash supports 64bit you might have to install the 32bit libs
[01:59] <UbuntuNoob> edbian: thanks
[01:59] <mom> itsux2bu, well it says 50% done because it deleted the existing partition in 6 secs
[01:59] <yonahw> sacarlson: know of anywhere I can read up on this more? I am not sure which libs you are referring to nor where I can find them.
[01:59] <edbian> UbuntuNoob, In windows the programs are installed into Program Files\Program Name\.  In linux they're tossed all about the file tree.
[01:59] <sacarlson> yonahw: my last system was 64bit with ubuntu 8.04 and had problems with 32bit libs
[02:00] <wok> hey guys, i have a challenge if you wish to take it up. I have a box that appears to have a hdd problem. I cannot ssh into said box due to not being able to read any user info from the system.
[02:00] <itsux2bu> mom, deleting takes hardly any time
[02:00] <olskolirc> yes i just noticed its the current kernel ChogyDan i need to get my module CX23416 back in it. I can't watch tv on my vlc - modprobe can't find the module and there is no PVR option for my vlc anymore
[02:00] <wok> I do however have shell access via my irc bouncer. how can i reboot the system?
[02:00] <Stevethepirate> sudo reboot now
[02:00] <mom> itsux2bu, i know, this makes the progress bar a bit worthless
[02:00] <olskolirc> to make it easier, how do I get the module CX23416
[02:00] <wok> the shell access is not root, and i cant sudo due to sudo needing to read the suer file on the system
[02:00] <itsux2bu> mom, the actual formatting takes time.. basically writting to ever byte on the HD
[02:01] <Stevethepirate> wok, there could be a root exploit, especially if its running a 2.4 kernel.
[02:01] <itsux2bu> *every
[02:01] <sacarlson> yonahw: how far into this install are you?  I might tell you that if you don't have more than 4gig of ram that it would be better to reinstall 32bit ubuntu
[02:01] <mom> itsux2bu, gah
[02:01] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: I've no idea
[02:01] <yonahw> sacarlson: install seems to have gone fine. I also have 8GB of ram
[02:01] <sacarlson> yonahw: ok then it might be worth it then
[02:01] <wok> Stevethepirate, process list shows a *lot* of cron processes. I'm guessing as its also a iscisi disk its locked the drive access or something maybe
[02:01] <olskolirc> im going for broke
[02:02] <sacarlson> yonahw: let me check
[02:02] <olskolirc> im going to uninstall and reinstall the kernel with synaptic
[02:02] <yonahw> flash works in some cases like youtube and pandora. only site I have found issues on thus far is speedtest.net but I feel like the problem must be on my machine
[02:02] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: how did this happen?  how did you get it in the first place?   yes, that should be fine
[02:02] <olskolirc> it came with my Hardy haha ChogyDan and ive been upgrading ever since
[02:03] <Maletor> sudo umount -f /dev/md1 gives me resource is busy and lsof /dev/md1 gives me nothing. fuser -m /dev/md1 spits out random numbers. How can I unmount this so I can disassemble the RAID?
[02:03] <edbian> Maletor, Try the lazy option.
[02:03] <olskolirc> I had problems with vlc video distortion today ChogyDan and i uninstalled and purged vlc and lost the module when i reinstalled it
[02:03] <billy> hi - a question about package updates - say i have 9.04 supported till Oct '10 - do all packages that require security updates in the support period get updates or are that abandoned at release of 9.10?
[02:03] <Maletor> edbian: being?
[02:03] <UbuntuNoob_> my ubuntu just froze pretty hard, anything i can do besides a hard shut down?
[02:03] <UbuntuNoob_> its installing a program too so i dont really want to shut it down
[02:03] <aganice> question: how can i trigger events on plugging in an hdmi output cable from a script?
[02:04] <edbian> Maletor, -l
[02:04] <n4xus> yonahw please post your flash version using your about:plugins browser command
[02:04] <edbian> Maletor, try umount -f    (force) still.
[02:04] <edbian> Maletor, Try force first*
[02:04] <Maletor> edbian: Maletor is not a command as far as I know. I did try umount -f
[02:05] <Maletor> edbian: You mean umount -fl /dev/md1?
[02:05] <n4xus> Maletor your right or just -l might do it
[02:05] <yonahw> n4xus: Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82
[02:05] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: sometimes it is easier to just backup /home, and reinstall
[02:05] <linux-dj> hi can anyone confirm wether the netbook remix edition of ubuntu is a full release of ubuntu or wether is has been stripped down of some components
[02:06] <edbian> Maletor, Try umount -f   and then umount -l
[02:06] <sacarlson> yonahw: did you get it?  this is all I found so far https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[02:06] <Maletor> edbian: n4xus you guys are right
[02:06] <ActionParsnip> linux-dj: its a full release, just the UI is optomised for smaller screens
[02:06] <edbian> Maletor, Read the man page about what umount -l does though.
[02:06] <Maletor> what does -l do or i can read about it myself
[02:06] <edbian> Maletor, I'm right about what?
[02:06] <Maletor> edbian: it worked :)
[02:06] <olskolirc> yeah im thinking of that ChogyDan do you know how I can reinstall with the Lucid.iso?  I don't have a dvd burner
[02:06] <edbian> Maletor, -l  is lazy un mount.  It's in the man page.  It says "unmount when you're ready"  The fs unmounts itself.
[02:06] <yonahw> sacarlson: I have not found it yet but still looking, I see others who have created shell scripts but I would like to inspect first before running
[02:06] <linux-dj> ActionParsnip: so as far as trouble shooting is concerned i can count it as a full release
[02:07] <edbian> Maletor, It usually works for me too when a fs is "busy"  :)
[02:07] <n4xus> make sure you dont have anything opened when you umount
[02:07] <ActionParsnip> olskolirc: use the universal installer in windows to transfer the iso to usb
[02:07] <sacarlson> yonahw: sound like a good plan to me
[02:07] <ChogyDan> olskolirc: usb drive?
[02:07] <olskolirc> pci
[02:07] <Maletor> My whole computer just foobared
[02:07] <Maletor> I think it unmounted /
[02:08] <ActionParsnip> linux-dj: its optomised for smaller screens but the kernel is the generic one like the desktop and there are a few different apps by default
[02:08] <n4xus> Yonahw try www.speakeasy.net/speedtest
[02:08] <edbian> Maletor, You can't unmount /
[02:08] <yonahw> sacarlson: that link you sent before seems to be it I am going to try that
[02:08] <dualbus> Hi, is there a IE-like browser for Ubuntu? I need to test a web page (rendering), and I don't have/want IE in my computer.
[02:08] <edbian> Maletor, Perhaps you can and no program can be run again.
[02:08] <sacarlson> yonahw: if all else fails what I did was had a 32bit version that ran in virtualbox that did everything.  I needed full 32bit to get my canon printer to work so I just printed throught that.
[02:08] <yonahw> n4xus: speakleasy works
[02:08] <ActionParsnip> dualbus: theres ies4linux but its pretty crappy
[02:08] <Visitor_19800> is it possible to emulate mac os in ubuntu or on a pc in general?
[02:08] <Maletor> edbian: Then why would opening terminal say: there was an error creating child process for this terminal
[02:08] <Dr_Willis> dualbus:  the only ie like browser would be IE..
[02:08] <DasEi> dualbus: change plugin useragent of ff
[02:08] <Maletor> and my background is gone
[02:09] <Maletor> etc.
[02:09] <Dr_Willis> Visitor_19800:  yes its possible.
[02:09] <ActionParsnip> dualbus: if you are web testing it i advise you shell out for an XP license and run IE in that to get an accurate test
[02:09] <edbian> Maletor, ha.  Perhaps you did! :)
[02:09] <n4xus> yonahw are you running virtual box and having problems with flash??
[02:09] <ActionParsnip> BKTech86: it's not legal for one
[02:09] <Maletor> edbian: christ. and that means i can't dissasemble my raid because it can't even get bash let along mdadm
[02:09] <yonahw> n4xus: no virtualization involved
[02:09] <edbian> Did Visitor_198000 quit?
[02:10] <n4xus> ok
[02:10] <BKTech86> no
[02:10] <BKTech86> changed nick
[02:10] <BKTech86> its also illegal just for personal use?
[02:10] <Maletor> edbian: what's the process for mounting my drives on the live cd and starting up the raid over there. last time i tried to `mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda` it didn't work...
[02:10] <edbian> BKTech86, Hi.  You can create a virtual machine to run any OS you want.
[02:10] <dualbus> ActionParsnip: Thanks, but I don't like Windows, I'll have to stick with browsershots.org
[02:10] <ActionParsnip> BKTech86: the apple licnse states the OS can ONLY be installed on apple hardware
[02:10] <Dr_Willis> BKTech86:  techniocally anything apple says is illeagle . so yes. :) it would be.
[02:10] <edbian> Maletor, I don't know how to set up raid :(  Never done it!
[02:11] <linux-dj> hey guys you dont release mixxx as a comercial product in that someone can sell it do you
[02:11] <yonahw> sacarlson: adobe labs closed the 64bit player labs work apparently there were some serious security and performance issues
[02:11] <dualbus> Dr_Willis: :( I was hoping there was a IE emulator
[02:11] <BKTech86> edbian, you're saying you can use e.g. VirtuaBox ?
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> BKTech86:  so if they said you could only run it on every other tuesday...
[02:11] <edbian> BKTech86, yes.
[02:11] <BKTech86> hm
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> dualbus:  how could such a thing even exist and be proven to be accurate? If that was the case then Firefox could just act totally like IE for example.
[02:11] <edbian> BKTech86, But it is illegal.  And this technically isn't the channel to do it.
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> !illegal
[02:12] <sacarlson> yonahw: what I had running in a 64bit ubuntu 8.04 was a 32bit version of firefox running.
[02:12] <BKTech86> thanks ppl
[02:12] <BKTech86> <3 irc
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> Or at least against the EULA :)
[02:12] <Maletor> Does anybody know how to mount 4 hard drives on the live cd and get mdadm goign?
[02:12] <edbian> Dr_Willis, You could write firefox or ie entirely in javascript and then run it inside a browser! :)
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: you dont mount drives, you mount partitions
[02:12] <hunterm> hello, i have a question with networkmanager
[02:12] <Maletor> ActionParsnip:  so `mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1`
[02:12] <linux-dj> i was in a store the other day that buys and sells second hand goods they had a product that looked suspiciosley like a copy of mixxx it looked like someone had burned it and sold itto the shop
[02:13] <dualbus> Dr_Willis: Yeah, but IE has a different rendering engine, and a lot of different things, a different approach to comply with the standards, and I need to test that
[02:13] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: if you want to mount /dev/sda1   sure
[02:13] <hunterm> is there any way to use networkmanager from the console?
[02:13] <yonahw> sacarlson: I see what you mean, it's certainly a possibility
[02:13] <IdleOne> !ot | linux-dj
[02:13] <dualbus> Dr_Willis: The semantics change between browsers
[02:13] <hunterm> when i used arch, there was a cneworkmanager
[02:13] <hunterm> i can't find it here
[02:13] <ActionParsnip> hunterm: wicd has wicd-curses
[02:13] <n4xus> hunterm. Why do you want to do that?
[02:13] <sacarlson> yonahw: it worked for me for 2 years
[02:14] <hunterm> because, i like using the console :)
[02:14] <ActionParsnip> n4xus: ubuntu server has no gui
[02:14] <yonahw> I think I am going to leave this alone until my wife complains about something not working for her
[02:14] <yonahw> thank you all for your help
[02:14] <linux-dj> this isnt a ubuntu question its a question regarding mixxx
[02:14] <hunterm> ActionParsnip: i'd rather use networkmanager instead of wicd
[02:14] <n4xus> hunter then write bash scripts
[02:14] <IdleOne> linux-dj: making it offtopic
[02:14] <ActionParsnip> hunterm: not sure then dude
[02:14] <hunterm> n4xus: that isn't much help. :(
[02:15] <sacarlson> yonahw: it won't take long 70% of sites have flash now.  how can you look at youtube?
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> n4xus: if you dont use 3G then both are fine
[02:15] <n4xus> well have you ever wrote a script?
[02:15] <IdleOne> linux-dj: well technically mixxx is not offtopic but the discussion about it being sold in a store is.
[02:15] <hunterm> yes
[02:15] <n4xus> u can you nano
[02:15] <eipi-1> hey, i want to initiate a gdm-login via ssh. Any ideas on that?
[02:15] <hunterm> i have written many
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: minitube is a way to view vids and doesnt use flash
[02:15] <fancybit> hello
[02:15] <yonahw> sacarlson: flash in general works. youtube, pandora, hulu all work. only problem thus far is speedtest.net
[02:15] <hunterm> but, i do not know how to connect or what commands to use in that case
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> !info minitube
[02:15] <n4xus> u can use nano like nano connect.txt
[02:16] <n4xus> then write the commands in the text file
[02:16] <hunterm> n4xus: i know
[02:16] <hunterm> but what commands would i use?!
[02:16] <hunterm> that's what i'm asking
[02:16] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: oh I didn't know that very cool.  that should keep you wife happy  yonahw
[02:16] <fancybit> helo?
[02:16] <IdleOne> !hi | fancybit
[02:16] <n4xus> ok are you using wirless
[02:16] <boobsbr> howdy
[02:17] <hunterm> yes, i am using wireless
[02:17] <yonahw> sacarlson: that's what I'm figuring. If it turns out that the problem is more widespread I will investigate other options
[02:17] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: its great on low end rigs as it doesnt have all the flash / web browser overhead
[02:17] <Frantic> guys, any idea why nslcd would not connect to the ldap server for some time (sometimes even an hour)?

[02:17] <boobsbr> I'm having trouble with my networking on lucid. After some time, networking just stops working.
[02:18] <olskolirc> I could just cry
[02:18] <benjamin01>  I'm having an issue where an external drive (powered externally via wallwart) is randomly unmounting. Any ideas what could be wrong?
[02:18] <sacarlson> yonahw: try virtualbox  it will give you 32bit if she or you really needs it.
[02:18] <fancybit> what the last login means?
[02:18] <edbian> benjamin01, Start by looking in dmesg.
[02:18] <edbian> benjamin01, Sometimes they turn themselves off to save power.
[02:18] <ActionParsnip> boobsbr: when it drops, run: dmesg | tail     it may give clues
[02:18] <benjamin01> edbian what's dmesg?
[02:18] <yonahw> sacarlson: I was planning on checking out virtualbox anyway since I still need to run visual studio from time to time.
[02:18] <n4xus> You can configure your network  using scripts
[02:19] <edbian> benjamin01, type dmesg in the terminal.  It's a basic system log.
[02:19] <itsux2bu> yonahw, vbox is cool
[02:19] <fancybit> 1
[02:19] <sacarlson> yonahw: there ya go,  I have all the windows versions in there too
[02:19] <fancybit> 2
[02:19] <fancybit> 3
[02:19] <fancybit> 4
[02:19] <fancybit> 5
[02:19] <FloodBot3> fancybit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:19] <fancybit>
[02:19] <edbian> benjamin01, I find it very helpful in finding initial hints.
[02:19] <boobsbr> ActionParsnip: I did that but found nothing that helped identify the issue.
[02:19] <n4xus> still there hunterm
[02:19] <hunterm> yes
[02:19] <benjamin01> edbian: any particular time I should do this (when it unmounts, right after I remount it)?
[02:19] <hunterm> i'm typing it in now
[02:19] <n4xus> ok
[02:20] <fancybit> so what should I paste?
[02:20] <boobsbr> ActionParsnip: Is there a way to look at past logs, like in the last 5 minutes?
[02:20] <fancybit> this url? http://paste.ubuntu.com/482111/
[02:20] <n4xus> remember to run it like this "./filename.txt"
[02:20] <n4xus> proceed it with the ./
[02:20] <n4xus> ok
[02:20] <sacarlson> yonahw: when I buy hardware and it don't work I like to know if it at least works in windows so I know if I should bring it back to the store.  oh and I don't have dual boot.
[02:21] <n4xus> ./ is needed to run bash files not set you your path
[02:21] <fancybit> arr...
[02:21] <ActionParsnip> bootstrap: you can use: dmesg | tail -n 30      and get the last 30 lines, not sure about a time frame method
[02:21] <fancybit> Linus... can I have your sign? ;)
[02:21] <edbian> benjamin01, check the end of it right after it unmounts
[02:21] <IdleOne> !ot > fancybit
[02:22] <Linus> :D
[02:22] <yonahw> sacarlson: I buy so little hardware these days.
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> Im just happy the last laptop i bought worked 100% in Ubuntu with no hassles. :)
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> I havent tried the SD slot yet. ... so i guess its 96% actually
[02:23] <fancybit> what's your vedio card?
[02:23] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: the wonders of the HCL eh ;)
[02:23] <acovrig> how do I use a bluetooth mouse in icewm without using a mouse to set it up (aka terminal)
[02:23] <yonahw> I was running windows until friday and spending most of my time in an ubuntu vm. I finally decided to just pave the machine and install ubuntu as my main os. Haven't setup a vm with windows yet but I imagine it will happen
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  actually I just picked out the laptop with the best nvidia card.. that just  happened to be in my picerange. :)
[02:24] <boobsbr> Can't find anything useful in the logs. This was happening a lot before I upgraded (fresh install) from karmic to lucid today, and I could not find anything in the logs either.
[02:24] <ActionParsnip> acovrig: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-bluetooth-keyboard-and-mouse-in-ubuntu.html
[02:24] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: good call
[02:24] <fancybit> I install both, boot by grub
[02:25] <lahwran> edbian, what's dmesg?
[02:25] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: I'm so screwed. I just tried to boot and grub told me I had an unknown filesystem.
[02:26] <Maletor> All I did was I was in the live cd's disc utility and I said to start the raid array which seemed to be successful but there was no mount point
[02:26] <edbian> lahwran, It's a terminal command.  It prints out a list of basic system messages.
[02:26] <edbian> lahwran, Helpful for starting the hunt on a problem.
[02:26] <Maletor> Is there anyway I can recover my data
[02:26] <lahwran> ah. I remember now, I've known that for at least 6 years.
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: why do you not have a backup!!!??
[02:26] <edbian> lahwran, Usually things that go wrong are posted to dmesg.  Most of the things in there are trivial happenings though.
[02:27] <acovrig> ActionParsnip: google gave me that, id doesn't work because a)/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf doesn't exist; b)/etc/init.d/bluez-utils doesn't exits; c)hidd doesn't exist why?
[02:27] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: I do... It will take me a few weeks to get back though and it's a few months old but it's way better than nothing.
[02:27] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: I would really love to get my data back.
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> acovrig: do you have bluez installed?
[02:28] <acovrig> ActionParsnip: yes, as far as apt-get says, but nothing seems to be there
[02:28] <boobsbr> the networking stops seemed to start happening after 2.6.31-20
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: you'll need to recreate the raid in the livecd environment and then get the data from there, you really should keep your backups up to date
[02:29] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: I was trying to recreate the RAID but it didn't work.
[02:29] <acovrig> ActionParsnip: dpkg --get-selections|grep bluez returns that its installed...
[02:29] <gaelsong> libgcflashplayer.so is crashing in chrome anyone have a fix for that?
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: ive not used software raid in linux, only hardware raid, its much better
[02:29] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: tell me about it
[02:30] <yonahw> ActionParsnip: what are you using for backups? Do you have an online solution? I used to use Mozy in windows and would love a solution which allows me tons of space for cheap.
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> 'redundant stack of usb hard drives' is my backup :)
[02:30] <ActionParsnip> acovrig: may help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[02:30] <itsux2bu> i am using vbox..  32-bit windows vista host os..  32-bit ubuntu server guest os..  so how do i see if ubuntu can access my mobo reltek sound?
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> yonahw: cron'd job to copy my home folder to a firewire hdd
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  virtualbox virtualizes the sound card. the GUest os sees the VBOX sound card.. not the one on the MB/Host
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> yonahw: for stuff i want out and about I use dropbox
[02:31] <Maletor> How can I recreate my RAID on live cd?
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> !raid
[02:31] <gaelsong> libgcflashplayer.so is crashing in chrome anyone have a fix for that?
[02:32] <yonahw> I hear, I don't have an extra hard drive and figure that cloud space is much more likely to have redundant backups and such.
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: don't you mean libflashplayer.so
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> yonahw: ifits suitable for you, go for it. Dropbox will give you 250Mb free
[02:32] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip no, I mean libgcflashplayer.so thats the name of the file as reported by chrome
[02:33] <itsux2bu> ok.. what about a usb device.. like my HP all-in-one inkjet printer.. or my logitech orbit at webcam AND mic ?
[02:33] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: i use chrome, let me see if I have the file
[02:33] <itsux2bu> *Orbit AF
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  You should go read the virtualbox docs.manual at the vbox homepage.  YouMust use the vbox from their download site to acess usb devices like that.
[02:34] <gaelsong> am guessing "gc" is for google chrome. its integrated now, instead of the old plugin like firefox uses
[02:34] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  and you have to configure the Settings to allow access
[02:34] <gaelsong> using Google Chrome 5.0.375.127
[02:34] <yonahw> ActionParsnip: thanks I'll have to look at the options. I guess it is likely that the extra hard drive would be a much more economical solution.
[02:34] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: here are all the .so files on my system with "libgc" in them: http://pastebin.com/gL4B9V28
[02:35] <sacarlson> yonahw: for real important stuf I just mail it to myself  but there is sync that is cool it only sends what has changed.  you can use it on network or to a local hard disk. they have gui for it also. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=604966
[02:35] <arturo393> how can i disable the keyring ??
[02:35] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip thanks I'll take a look at that.
[02:35] <Dr_Willis> arturo393:  You can set a blank password. so it dosent popup/ask for the password at login. if thats what you mean..
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: if you move the file do you lose flash?
[02:36] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip I haven't tried moving the file yet, some flash players work, others crash
[02:36] <gaelsong> about 25% of the flash content I encounter works
[02:36] <yonahw> sacarlson: thanks, I am familiar with rsync
[02:36] <sacarlson> yonahw: ya that's the one
[02:36] <blizzzard> hmmm ... irc via android.... this going to take some getting used to...
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: can you use http://pastie.org to give the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf     thanks
[02:37] <sacarlson> yonahw: you can go back in time to whatever point with that
[02:37] <Xearo> I had that problem with flash and I right clicked the fash that didnt work and clicked disable hardware acceleration and it starting working
[02:37] <arturo393> Dr_Willis: how can i do that ??
[02:37] <Maletor> How can I recreate my RAID on live cd?
[02:37] <itsux2bu> so program do i run too hear sound in ubuntu server ?
[02:38] <ActionParsnip> itsux2bu: use mplayer
[02:38] <itsux2bu> *so what program
[02:38] <itsux2bu> ok
[02:38] <ActionParsnip> itsux2bu: theres also vlc with vlc-nox
[02:38] <Dr_Willis> arturo393:  theres guides and forum posts all over the place on how to do it, just google for 'gnome keyring reset' or similer. Or i made a video ages ago at   http://drop.io/dr_willis  - You use the appliations -> accessories -> keyring tool. RIght click in the right plac . z(over passwords:login) and you get a menu item to change the password
[02:39] <wiredvamp> I am new to ubuntu
[02:39] <wiredvamp> and i am looking for some help
[02:39] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip the file exists at /opt/google/chrome/libgcflashplayer.so
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> !manual | wiredvamp
[02:40] <arturo393> Dr_Willis: thanks
[02:40] <yayo1> congrats on the switch to ubuntu good decision wiredvamp
[02:40] <wiredvamp> ok
[02:40] <yayo1> what are you having trouble with?
[02:41] <wiredvamp> i am look for a free webcam program for pidgion
[02:41] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: hmm, i'm guessing you installed with the archive rather than using a repo
[02:41] <wiredvamp> *looking
[02:41] <yayo1> just use cheese
[02:41] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: can you give the output of the above command too please
[02:41] <Dr_Willis> pidgin eitherhas web cam/video support or it dosent.. i dont think you find a 'program' for it..
[02:41] <wiredvamp> will that work for video calls?
[02:42] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip I installed from http://www.google.com/chrome and yep gimme a sec I'll get that output for ya
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Unless im confused about pidgin.
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> !pidigin
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Google Talk/Video chat now has linux support I hear. (never tried it yet)
[02:42] <yayo1> nope, I'd use......give me a sec.
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> webcams are creepy
[02:42] <sacarlson> wiredvamp: pidgin supports skype and skype is free and suports webcam video conference.
[02:43] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip http://pastie.org/1108933
[02:43] <yayo1> just skype
[02:43] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  i always point mine at the fishtank :)
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: really? I thought skype would keep the protocol secret
[02:43] <wiredvamp> ok how do i get skype?
[02:43] <Dr_Willis> !skype
[02:43] <yayo1> for web calls wiredvamp use skype
[02:43] <wiredvamp> tvm
[02:44] <yayo1> ekiga is good to, takes some getting use to though
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: ok then try this: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:44] <yayo1> if looking for easy interface use skype
[02:44] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: you mean to have a group conference.  your right it only works with one on one
[02:44] <Dr_Willis> Use skype to play checkers with the grandkids. :)
[02:44] <nyu> i just added a printer to this pc and when i send jobs to it they disappear and nothing prints
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> nyu:  check the cups logs in /var/logs perhaps.
[02:45] <ActionParsnip> nyu: what make / model?
[02:45] <yayo1> that works to Dr_Willis
[02:45] <nyu> hp dj d1600
[02:45] <rww> fun fact: "remove --purge is equivalent to the purge command"
[02:45] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: oh and it is propriatary so it's free but not open source if that's what you mean
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: sure but i was unaware pidgin could do voice over skype
[02:46] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip, result of that command sha256sum mismatch install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[02:46] <gaelsong> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> nyu: could try the latest HPLIP
[02:46] <sacarlson> pidgin works with skype with the skype api
[02:46] <nyu> i think thats what its using
[02:46] <acovrig> how do I adjust mouse sensitivity in the terminal (icewm doesn't have the same menus)
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: makes sense, cheers duder
[02:47] <acovrig> or just in icewm for that matter
[02:47] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: http://klaith.wordpress.com/2009/04/04/the-flash-plugin-is-not-installed/
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> acovrig:  icewm has its own settigns/configs. there used to be a GUI config for icewm in teh repos.. but iove not tried it in ages.
[02:47] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip, not that it would matter that much I don't think, Google Chrome has Flash Integrated 5.0.375.127 so it doesn't use the external plugin
[02:48] <ActionParsnip> gaelsong: not sure then. I use chromium daily and its flawless
[02:49] <gaelsong> ActionParsnip, yeah I do to, on all but this computer. /shrug, first time I've had this happen
[02:49] <gaelsong> need to reload Ubuntu on this machine anyway. Guess Tuesday I'll get a 6 pack and get after it.
[02:49] <Jake2|cfl> Boot failed during fsck.  Says do manually.  Boot live CD.  "sudo fsck /dev/sda1" fails: no hda1.  How do I find name of partition?
[02:49] <Snug> can anyone help with gnome power manager error?
[02:49] <sacarlson> gaelsong: I think chromium might have flash in it.  when my firefox crashes sometimes on some sites like youtube I bring up chromium and it works.
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> Jake2|cfl: sudo fdisk -l   will list all partitions
[02:50] <gaelsong> sacarlson lol, i've been having to do the exact opposite on this machine only, when chrome has a flash crash i pull the site up in FF, I'm going to upgrade Ubuntu on Tuesday anyway, so it'll likely work itself out when I do that.
[02:50] <wiredvamp> can skype be use though pidgin?
[02:50] <Jake2|cfl> ActionParsnip: even when botted from the live CD?
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> Jake2|cfl: its the same thing, one just runs from the internal drive, one uses a ramdisk
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> Jake2|cfl: otherwise the OS is exactly the same
[02:51] <Jake2|cfl> ActionParsnip: ok will try
[02:52] <sacarlson> wiredvamp: yes but not sure why you would want to
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: i only use chromium, its flawless and rips the pants off firefox
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: couple it with a local dns and nice extra broadband options in sysctl.conf and you have a winner
[02:52] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: but I can't use my ruby watir autimation with chromium,  or just not yet.
[02:53] <olskolirc> I put Lucid.iso on my flash drive and I want it to boot and it brought me back here - how do I boot this iso
[02:53] <thune3> !ask | Snug
[02:53] <nyu> i use seamonkey, then whenever i mention it no one knows what im talking about
[02:53] <wiredvamp> so i could use the video call though yahoo messager
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> olskolirc: you dont just copy the iso to the device, its needs transferring in a special way
[02:54] <Maletor> How can I recreate my RAID on live cd?
[02:54] <olskolirc> how ActionParsnip
[02:54] <olskolirc> oh wait i think i have a tool to make a usb
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> olskolirc: if you have a windows PC then pendrivelinux have a universal ISO copier, Ubuntu has usb-creator-gtk  which can transfer the iso over so it is bootable
[02:55] <ActionParsnip> peace out kids, its 3am
[02:57] <Blue1> !hcl | blue1
[03:00] <n0body> a workaround to get on-line with Ubuntu using usb modems which are not recognized by Ubuntu:  -stick usb dongle in windows, open dongle properties under "my computer" and disable usb storage device so that only modem is not disabled.. - next: while still connected to Internet leave the dongle inside the usb (do not disconnect), put in cd-drive Ubuntu and install the system side by side with windows by resizing the windows partition, when you log
[03:00] <n0body>  into the new Ubuntu the usb dongle will get connected and online by itself..
[03:00] <razass> is there a way, using wget to download to a specific directory? I can't seam to find it in the--help
[03:01] <n0body> don't ask me why it works, but it does
[03:01] <PaulNM> razass, just cd to the target directory first.
[03:02] <razass> PaulNM: ahh great, didn't think of that thx
[03:03] <wiredvamp> i am looking for a program that will allow me to place video calls though Pidgin
[03:04] <xangua> wiredvamp: pidgin supports voice and video with xmpp/jabber protocol
[03:04] <wiredvamp> that is free though
[03:04] <andrew_708476> is anyone good with using Mandrive
[03:04] <twig_> im trying to setup a wifi connect in 10.04 with a netopia swl-2300u usb wifi card
[03:04] <acovrig> my usb dongle shows up in lsusb, but not in hcitool dev why?
[03:05] <n-iCe> Hi, am I the only one having problems with flash? I play games and it turns blank in few minutes, using chrome and firefox

[03:13] <kermit> i thought you could do it by adding something to your apt sources

[03:13] <Ximal> that too kermit
[03:13] <Ximal> but you have to go to the program's website to get that info

[03:32] <twobitsprite> epinky: nope
[03:32] <antagonistxx> I seem to have patched everything fine but i still can't get packet injection working :(
[03:33] <twig_> blue1: thats the first ive heard of hcl, ive got a swl-2300u (netopia usb wifi card) which was a bear to setup but i have it working through ndiswrapper, i can see the wifi router, wlan0 is setup but networkmanager and iwconfig wont get me connected
[03:33] <Blue1> twobitsprite: you can always to an alt+f4
[03:33] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  either one
[03:33] <twobitsprite> I tried going to the rdesktop website to find documentation, but it just says the documentation comes with it... but being as I'm stuck on my windows system, I can't get to the docs on my linux box
[03:33] <ThomasB2k> is there any way to control the bass of external speakers?
[03:33] <olskolirc> ok guys important question:  I just made a karmic usb bootable disk and I have room left to download the Lucid iso too.  If i boot from this usb disk, is it going to give me a choice or be confused?
[03:33] <haardz> Where I insert de modules (kernel) to start with the system?
[03:33] <twobitsprite> Blue1: nope... alt-f4 is passed to the remote desktop
[03:34] <MaRk-I> smil3y: yeah either one but loell's last build some stuff doesnt work with voice (it's for chatrooms anyways"
[03:34] <Blue1> twobitsprite: will there's always sudo kill <pid>
[03:34] <anthony_> how to repair broken repositories using CLI. can i know how
[03:34] <olskolirc> i should split the drive what do you guys think and put lucid on the other partition of this bootable disk
[03:34] <Blue1> twig_: you did try ifup yes?
[03:34] <twobitsprite> Blue1: well... again, I'm stuck on the remote desktop, I can't run commands on my linux box
[03:34] <Barnabas> ThomasB2k, Perhaps your sound card has a hw mixer / equalizer?
[03:35] <twobitsprite> actually... ctrl-alt-enter leaves the fullscreen mode
[03:35] <smil3y> MaRk-I>  i didnt know about that other one, im gonna try it too, thanks
[03:35] <Blue1> twobitsprite: I have never used rdesktop I usually use vnc - let me fire it up.
[03:35] <antagonistxx> Also, is there any upside to say using hardy over lucidd? or is the newest releases  always the best
[03:35] <epinky> twobitsprite: then logout a moment
[03:35] <gbluntzer> how do I set the time out (when the screen fades to black) when the box goes to login screen?
[03:35] <haardz> Where I insert de modules (kernel) to start with the system?
[03:35] <MaRk-I> smil3y: yeah I found out when voice didnt work, then found that other ppa by bautista seems to work
[03:35] <olskolirc> ok folks im going to split this disk hahaha
[03:36] <twobitsprite> Blue1: I got it... ctrl-alt-enter leaves fullscreen and I can close it
[03:36] <zzzed> twobitsprite,  how about ctrl+alt+F2, login, then sudo kill <pid>
[03:36] <twobitsprite> thanks for your help though
[03:36] <Blue1> twobitsprite: 3.3. To Close a Connection
[03:36] <olskolirc> one side of the usb bootable for karmic and the other for lucid i should be able to choose

[03:44] <xangua> MaRk-I: why¿
[03:44] <TiK> that doesnt support v4l1 .. design flaw imo the settings are on the webcam page
[03:44] <smil3y> ya gyach is about the only yahoo chat client i can get to work with a cam

[03:46] <TiK> and they don't work or something

[03:59] <xangua> bilderbergs: if you have a question related to ubuntu go ahead, if not then try #ubuntu-offtopic and stop that !language
[03:59] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  yeah, the icon that says "reload" towards the top of the synaptic window
[03:59] <coz_> twig_,  since I am the channel's doof on networking issues I would check at the ##linux channel
[03:59] <IdleOne> !language | bilderbergs
[03:59] <twig_> ok thanks ppl
[03:59] <xangua> wiredvamp: you can also read the instructions in the PPA page
[03:59] <bilderbergs> lolz
[03:59] <wiredvamp> oh ok
[03:59] <bilderbergs> wat 12 year old doesnt swear
[04:00] <coz_> twig_,  however... if they help solve this ...i would apprciate let us know :)
[04:00] <twig_> np
[04:00] <wiredvamp> it didnt work
[04:00] <IdleOne> bilderbergs: it is channel policy. Please follow the rules
[04:00] <coz_> bilderbergs,  well this has been a family channel for about 6 years now... :)
[04:00] <tanath> anyone?
[04:00] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  what didnt work?  reload?
[04:00] <bilderbergs> he young do u expect ppl to be here , not many even know wat irc is let alone ubuntu. we got 10 years old in here ?
[04:00] <MaRk-I> bilderbergs: are you 12?
[04:00] <wiredvamp> smil3y> yes
[04:00] <coz_> tanath,  sorry I didnt see your question
[04:00] <xangua> (21:50:45) MaRk-I: wiredvamp: type this in console:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:baudm/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gyachi
[04:01] <bilderbergs> im 23 and also from NY
[04:01] <tanath> coz_, i have a couple packages i can't install or remove. basically this problem: http://casedogdesigns.com/wordpress/ubuntu-inconsistent-apt-get-state/
[04:01] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  type gyachi in the search window in synaptic
[04:01] <bilderbergs> any1 use BT4 ?
[04:01] <IdleOne> bilderbergs: they do in #backtrack-linux
[04:01] <bilderbergs> i just might switch to ubuntu as my main o.s
[04:02] <ianwizard1> bilderbergs: as my emergency distro.  always on my flash drive on my keyring.
[04:02] <wiredvamp> oK
[04:03] <tanath> if anyone knows how to forcibly remove the packages and fix the inconsistent state, it'd be much appreciated
[04:03] <coz_> tanath,  ok  well one thing to do is places/search for files  and type in the name of the app and search in both file system and usr..then open terminal    sudo rm -rf  place and name of file    its slow  but it might do the trick just dont use spaces   like  /usr/share   nameof file  instead   /usr/share/nameoffile
[04:03] <coz_> brb nature call
[04:03] <d3s3rt3gl> how to shutdown frozen ubuntu ??
[04:03] <IdleOne> d3s3rt3gl: alt-sysrq-k
[04:03] <ianwizard1> d3s3rt3gl: press and hold the power button.
[04:03] <rww> !reisub
[04:03] <rww> IdleOne: iirc, that kills the current program, it doesn't shutdown
[04:04] <rww> ianwizard1: not the best first step ;P
[04:04] <ianwizard1> d3s3rt3gl: if Ubuntu freezes, there's usually no comming back
[04:04] <IdleOne> rww: it restarts X from what I understand
[04:04] <Bynw> my computer clock seems to be out of sync ... i'm attempting to run ntpdate from the terminal but i get the following error: 22 Aug 21:59:02 ntpdate[2392]: bind() fails: Permission denied
[04:04] <wiredvamp> smil3y now what?
[04:04] <TemperingPick_> d3s3rt3gl: Can't you just hold the power button down?
[04:04] <rww> IdleOne: ah, I checked, it kills everything on the current virtual console. if X is on your current virtual console, then yeah.
[04:05] <IdleOne> rww: often times that is all that is needed and not a shutdown/reboot
[04:05] <ianwizard1> rww: if he can't do anything, then that's about it.  I assume (probably a mistake) that he can't Ctrl-Alt-F2
[04:05] <IdleOne> but reisub is always good to remember :)
[04:05] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  did gyachi show up in the window as being able to install?
[04:05] <rww> ianwizard1: the factoid ubottu gave will restart safely, and allow the filesystem to sync properly. manually powering off won't.
[04:05] <wiredvamp> i am not sure what would it look like ?
[04:06] <smil3y> wiredvamp>   ? have you ever installed a program before through synaptic?
[04:06] <wiredvamp> no
[04:06] <smil3y> wiredvamp> what happened when you typed gyachi in the search window on synaptic
[04:07] <xangua> wiredvamp: have you already do what  MaRk-I told you¿
[04:07] <coz_> tanath,  actually..better still   gksudo nautilus   then hunt down the files and delete them from there
[04:07] <d3s3rt3gl> reisub worked
[04:07] <boobsbr> Blue1: have you seen this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8124833&postcount=294
[04:07] <wiredvamp> smil3y it poped up a list
[04:07] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  you know.  the "search" bar at the top of the synaptic window?
[04:07] <wiredvamp> yes
[04:07] <coz_> tanath,  could you tell me again the packages you installed that are giving you issues??
[04:07] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  and is gyachi listed in that list?
[04:07] <wiredvamp> yes
[04:08] <MaRk-I> wiredvamp: select all except gyachi xmms plugin
[04:08] <smil3y> wiredvamp> so check the box next to gyachi and click "apply"
[04:08] <tanath> coz_, python-wxgtk2.8 & python-wxversion
[04:08] <wiredvamp> ok
[04:09] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  trying to be patient here, but its really not rocketscience
[04:09] <coz_> tanath,  ok thanks ... I am going to check these out while you do that
[04:09] <tanath> coz_, tried to use the crash report that came up to report bug, but it gave me invalid openid token or something
[04:09] <wiredvamp> now what?
[04:09] <coz_> tanath,   did you install these via synaptic  ?
[04:10] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  your done.  its installed
[04:10] <tanath> coz_, they were dependencies from other things..
[04:10] <wiredvamp> ok
[04:10] <tanath> coz_, i typically use aptitude
[04:10] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  now goto applications> internet, and start it
[04:10] <wiredvamp> tvm
[04:10] <coz_> tanath,   do you remember  which things these were dependencies for?
[04:10] <asdf_baron> Hi.. so on a wired internet connection, I can't connect to any website that uses https, so basically can't log into gmail, youtube.  the problem only occurs on my ubuntu machine.
[04:10] <tanath> coz_, openrpg was one... i forget the other
[04:11] <coz_> tanath,  ok
[04:11] <thune3> Bynw: specifically for ntpdate, i think you need to run with sudo for that error
[04:11] <Bynw> thune3, i'll try that and see ....
[04:11] <twig_> could somebody give me the link to freenode's registering website.. i registered earlier today and stil havnt got the email to finish it and need to request they resend the email
[04:11] <Snug> how can I fix the purple screen of death?
[04:12] <IdleOne> twig_: join #freenode and ask them to resend the email
[04:12] <ARGGG> [ http://radio.supertorrents.org:8000/listen.pls ] tune in for live tunes
[04:12] <twig_> thanks idleone
[04:12] <`RadioMan>  im panicking, i just heard a windoze sound on my linux.
[04:12] <IdleOne> ARGGG: please don't advertise here
[04:13] <Bynw> thune3, that gives me:  22 Aug 22:12:04 ntpdate[2437]: the NTP socket is in use, exiting
[04:13] <asdf_baron> Would you guys know what would cause https only to fail?
[04:14] <IanWizard> is there some way to record audio that is being played / output
[04:14] <thune3> Bynw: i would guess ntpd is already running. you can check "ps aux | grep ntp"
[04:14] <jk_> asdf_baron: if your firewall is blocking its port that could cause it.
[04:15] <asdf_baron> does ubuntu have a firewall in a default install?
[04:15] <IanWizard> Bynw, thune3: or just pgrep ntpd (or pgrep -l ntpd)
[04:15] <xangua> !firewall | asdf_baron
[04:15] <asdf_baron> thing is.  If I do tcptraceroute gmail.com 443
[04:15] <asdf_baron> the command doesn

[04:21] <th0r> cwgordon7: this might help...http://harrison3001.blogspot.com/2009/09/grub-2-graphical-boot-tips-to-set.html
[04:21] <Flynsarmy> coz_: laptop is 1440x900, external is 1680x1050
[04:21] <asdf_baron> I've tried midori, chromium, firefox
[04:21] <cwgordon7> thanks th0r!
[04:21] <asdf_baron> same problem across the board
[04:22] <coz_> Flynsarmy,  ok  that seems like it would be large enough...what that means though is the 8192 is a hardware limitiation on the card...your resolutions cannot excede that in any one direction combined
[04:22] <xangua> Omen_20: it's a plugin only for fx i believe, did you restart firefox¿
[04:22] <anthony_> god. i rely don't know what to do. about this broken pakege. i can't install, update and remove.  god the F...!!!!
[04:22] <SCD[Eire]> So earlier to ubunt started screaming "BATTERY EMPTY" and shutdown. I have a desktop with no battery...

[04:23] <IanWizard> asdf_baron: maybe a local cert problem
[04:23] <Flynsarmy> coz_: but 1440+1680 < 8192?
[04:23] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  yes
[04:23] <reya276> The HDMI is Intel Based
[04:23] <coz_> Flynsarmy,  yeah exactly ...this is puzzling....this is nvidia I take it?
[04:23] <Flynsarmy> coz_: yea, using proprietry drivers. i'm pretty sure it was working last distro
[04:23] <anthony_> brother how do you fix a broken pakege using a command line. god. i am rely losing my mind. god. i am stating to hate linux.
[04:24] <Omen_20> xangua, i think i might have found the issue. I was trying Google Talk in iGoogle. In GMail it seems like it might work. At least looks different.
[04:24] <coz_> Flynsarmy,   I know you did this already ....but when you installed the nvidia driver you rebooted ....yes?
[04:24] <asdf_baron> local cert problem?  as in certificate?  What would I do about it
[04:24] <tanath> coz_, this has been holding up my updates for a while, so it'll be a couple mins before i find out if it can fix it now...
[04:24] <th0r> anthony_: you might try toning it down if youwant a response
[04:24] <jk_> anthony_:Open synaptic, click the "custom filters" button, and select "broken" which should show you the broken package in the file window, and let you fix or delete it.
[04:24] <coz_> tanath,  ok
[04:24] <Flynsarmy> coz_: yep
[04:24] <smil3y> wiredvamp>  click "setup" on top of gyach window, towrds bottom shows you the webcam feature
[04:24] <coz_> Flynsarmy,  and you used  nvidia-settings to test and check the monitor resolutions and set twinview?
[04:24] <Flynsarmy> coz_: there's an 'overscan compression' setting i can change for the external in nvidia-settings that gets me the left side of the screen back but at teh expense of having the right, top and bottom shrunk down
[04:24] <anthony_> i can't even use synaptic i dose not open. god
[04:24] <reya276> here is the output of my dmesg http://www.pastebin.org/740097
[04:25] <Flynsarmy> coz_: yes
[04:25] <Flynsarmy> coz_: wait...winview?
[04:25] <coz_> Flynsarmy,   rather   "twinview"
[04:25] <coz_> sorry
[04:25] <coz_> new keyboard
[04:25] <twig_> win? what? stop cursing
[04:25] <anthony_> th0r:  i can't even use synaptic i dose not open. god
[04:25] <Flynsarmy> coz_: yep, its on twinview
[04:26] <Flynsarmy> coz_: another quirk of the nvidia-settings is that i can zoom on my laptops screen but not hte external with compiz
[04:26] <th0r> anthony_: if god is helping there isn't anything else I can do for you
[04:26] <tanath> coz_, ok, i seem to have fixed them all now :)
[04:26] <anthony_> jk:  i can't even use synaptic i dose not open. god
[04:26] <tanath> coz_, thanks
[04:26] <coz_> Flynsarmy,   ok this is puzzling   and since I have never had the opportunity to actually work with laptops  i cannot troubleshoot this however perhaps  the  #ubuntu-x channel can help?
[04:26] <coz_> Flynsarmy,   or even #nvidia channel
[04:26] <Flynsarmy> coz_: I'll give them a shot. thanks
[04:27] <cyberjorge> Hi, I need to migrate a cpanel add-on domain to its own account on another server
[04:27] <coz_> Flynsarmy,  if you find a solution i would like to know what that is  if you dont mind :)
[04:27] <cyberjorge> is it possible to migrate emails from one server to another including its credentials?   Not my ISP, not my router, not my browser.  What else could be going wrong?

[04:31] <Aliselyn> hi, I was wondering if anyone here knows much about getting a dialup connection running in 10.04.
[04:31] <smil3y> zinny>  its installed by default  dpkg
[04:31] <thune3> asdf_baron: ipv6 and proxy are two other possible angles. (ipv6 seemed like an old problem though)
[04:31] <IanWizard> zinny: .deb files can be installed with dpkg or gdebi
[04:31] <zinny> im trying to instal chrome
[04:31] <MaRk-I> !hdaintel | reya276
[04:31] <zinny> it wont work
[04:32] <IanWizard> zinny: I suggest gdebi, since it has a gui also
[04:32] <reya276> MaRk-I: Yes
[04:32] <asdf_baron> I'm thinking ipv6 could have something to do with it.  I was having some problems a while ago and disabled ipv6 in firefox.. That fixed my connection problems temporarily
[04:32] <smil3y> zinny>  download a deb to your desktop, double click it, what happends?
[04:32] <asdf_baron> now whether it's enabled or not I still have this problem
[04:32] <zinny> thanks IanWizard
[04:33] <IanWizard> zinny: no prob (P.S. they are both already installed, just type gdebi-gtk)
[04:34] <zinny> IanWizard, nope. not on my system. i did a minimal install.
[04:34] <asdf_baron> apparently I ca do some https..  I'm conneced to https://wiki.mozilla.org
[04:34] <wiredvamp> smil3y it is not working?
