[12:23] <issyl0> Hi everyone. Can I change the hostname of my laptop from laptop to laptopone ?
[12:23] <edeca> issyl0: /etc/hostname
[12:23] <mathieu__> change it in /etc/hostanme
[12:23] <issyl0> edeca, mathieu__, thanks :)
[12:24] <ainicute> ae
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest79791:  the use of hdparm is getting mor eand more obsolete with changes to the ide/sata subsystmes. Ive not had to use that in ages.
[12:24] <Myrtti> issyl0: you need to change it in /etc/hosts too
[12:24] <PianoPete> edeca: don't forget to reboot
[12:24] <SolarisBoy> Dr_Willis: true indded
[12:24] <Gryllida> can a hostname be changed with GUI, without commands?
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest79791:  itts possible the hdparm command you are using is not giving true info.
[12:24] <edeca> PianoPete: I need to reboot?
[12:24] <issyl0> Myrtti: OK :)
[12:25] <issyl0> Done.  Now I reboot and it is laptopone, right ?
[12:26] <edeca> issyl0: Or /etc/init.d/hostname.sh
[12:26] <mathieu__> issyl0 or try a /etc/init.d/network restart
[12:26] <edeca> issyl0: (might be a bit different on your system)
[12:26] <_Narc_> Hello all. I got a USB key that takes forever to mount, like several minutes, it's FAT formated. Any advice, is it the device or Ubuntu's fault ? Thanks.
[12:26] <edeca> I haven't got my ubuntu laptop on
[12:26] <edeca> _Narc_: Anything in dmesg about it?
[12:26] <edeca> _Narc_: If not, it's possibly just the device.  Try scanning the disk on a Windows box or copying your data off and recreating the fat filesystem
[12:27] <issyl0> OK, thanks all!
[12:27] <Guest79791> dr willis  i was attmping to change from 16 bit i/o to 32 bit
[12:27] <Guest79791> and it deny reqeust
[12:27] <Guest79791> using sudo
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> Guest79791:  it may be because the info you are geting is wrong and it is 32bit allready
[12:27] <_Narc_> edeca: Nothing really alarming in dmesg | tail and I already did that, formatting it under Windows
[12:27] <Guest79791> http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-5031573.html
[12:28] <SolarisBoy> /proc/sys/kernel/hostname
[12:28] <Guest79791> hmm it is quite old
[12:28] <obscurant1st> where is the loacation for the packages which are downloaded by apt-get in ubuntu?
[12:28] <edeca> _Narc_: I've had similar when I've yanked them out without "safely ejecting" :)
[12:28] <edeca> obscurant1st: You mean the cache?
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> hdparm is getting more and more obsolete  -  ive not had to mess with it in years
[12:28] <generic> can someone help me get shh *working*?
[12:28] <SolarisBoy> :/var
[12:28] <generic> Or do I have to do to get remote logins?
[12:28] <edeca> obscurant1st: /var/cache/apt
[12:29] <EgYPaRaDoX> why is it safer to use sudo than su?
[12:29] <obscurant1st> edeca, ok, thx
[12:29] <sebsebseb> Hi
[12:29] <edeca> obscurant1st: The following might free up disk space: apt-get autoclean
[12:29] <generic> ^^^ssh
[12:29] <edeca> obscurant1st: But it removes any downloaded .dpkgs
[12:29] <SolarisBoy> generic: if you haven't enabled it as a startup service or installed it and dont have remote console log in,,
[12:29] <obscurant1st> edeca, i dont want to removeit
[12:29] <SolarisBoy> then you wont be able to from remote
[12:29] <Moat> so truecrypt and scramdisk are the two encryption programs?
[12:29] <generic> SolarisBoy: I have it installed
[12:30] <generic> and it is automatically started
[12:30] <sebsebseb> EgYPaRaDoX: normalley you just sudo  when you want root for command line apps, or  gksudo for graphical, and don't need to use anything else
[12:30] <_Narc_> edeca: Ya, I think so too :) But how to fix it now if formatting doesn't help ? Here's my dmesg | tail if you want to take a look - http://paste.ubuntu.com/380335/
[12:30] <SolarisBoy> generic: so whats the problem?
[12:30] <generic> SolarisBoy:  when i try to login in nothing happens
[12:30] <edeca> _Narc_: That looks totally normal
[12:30] <SolarisBoy> generic: do you mean it times out?
[12:30] <sebsebseb> EgYPaRaDoX: and there's a way to get a root shell all the time, but you woudn't normalley have a reason to do that
[12:30] <generic> SolarisBoy: no error, no output, it jsut stays there doing nothing
[12:30] <Gryllida> Can a hostname of machine running Ubuntu be changed with GUI only, without commands?
[12:30] <SolarisBoy> generic: try -v on your ssh line
[12:31] <edeca> _Narc_: I would expect to see errors about it settling if the stick was dodgy
[12:31] <SolarisBoy> generic: where are you ssh to and where are you?
[12:31] <generic> SolarisBoy: okay then thats actually helped
[12:31] <Moat> so truecrypt and scramdisk are the two encryption programs?
[12:31] <generic> SolarisBoy: debug1: Connecting to gneric.ath.cx [<IP_ADDRESS>] port 22.
[12:31] <SolarisBoy> ok so its not connected
[12:31] <generic> it stays st that forever
[12:31] <SolarisBoy> is this behind a firewall?
[12:31] <generic> I can ping the host
[12:32] <SolarisBoy> ok
[12:32] <generic> no no the ports are fine
[12:32] <_Narc_> edeca: I thought so. Yesterday it had a bad superblock alert but I achieved to format but now it takes 5 minutes to automount.
[12:32] <nasso_> does anyone here have experience with encrypted partitions? i have 3 encrypted partitions with the same password, / , swap and /data. i to input two passwords (for / and swap) before the system boots and then the third password is prompted for but the boot doesnt stop. does anyone know how to make it wait for the third password?
[12:32] <Realman23> hi all
[12:32] <generic> I have ssh working on other boxes
[12:32] <Gryllida> my question above, please notice it :/
[12:32] <SolarisBoy> siptables running?
[12:32] <Realman23> hi
[12:32] <edeca> _Narc_: Hrrrrrm, it _could_ be the stick going faulty but fixing itself (they have a small amount of extra storage for bad blocks)
[12:32] <edeca> _Narc_: And the host machine would know nothing about it
[12:32] <sebsebseb> EgYPaRaDoX: hrm left soon after my messages and re joined, so maybe you didn't see them
[12:32] <LaLeche> !info kubuntu-desktop 9.04
[12:32] <edeca> _Narc_: Time to buy a new stick?  They are less than $10 nowadays ;)
[12:32] <LaLeche> !info kubuntu-desktop
[12:33] <generic> SolarisBoy: no, this is a frsh install
[12:33] <LaLeche> !info kde-base
[12:33] <LaLeche> !info kde-core
[12:33] <_Narc_> edeca: The strange thing is that it's brand new. I bought it yesterday :)
[12:33] <SolarisBoy> ok is the host possibly experiencing very high loads then?
[12:33] <edeca> _Narc_: Hrm, that's bad then!
[12:33] <generic> no, im the host
[12:33] <_Narc_> edeca: So you think it's a faulty device ?
[12:34] <SolarisBoy> no the host... as in the node running SSH
[12:34] <edeca> _Narc_: I dunno, it could be.  That's not normal.  Have you got another machine to try it on?
[12:34] <SolarisBoy> TCP/IP can become unresponsive under high loads
[12:34] <_Narc_> Ya. I tested it on Win, it mounts quickly
[12:34] <generic> SolarisBoy: how can i restart the service?
[12:35] <generic> sshd i mean
[12:35] <_Narc_> But I'll try on my other Ubuntu box, thanks for your help anyway
[12:35] <Gryllida> my question, please notice it :/ Can a hostname of machine running Ubuntu be changed with GUI only, without commands?
[12:35] <SolarisBoy> generic: /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[12:35] <SolarisBoy> or service ssh restart
[12:36] <SolarisBoy> what type of address is that host using? static or DHCP?
[12:36] <fakeer> Planning to switch to a rolling-release (at least to see how  it feels). Fellow Ubuntu users, what do you suggest? Or is there a way I can have the semi-rolling release feel in Ubuntu??
[12:36] <korki> hello
[12:36] <Yautja_Cetanu> Could someone point me in the right direction to get advice on how to set up a virtual host on a different port for apache2? I don't have dns or virtual ips
[12:37] <SolarisBoy> Yautja_Cetanu: you can simply de<VirtualHost *:80>
[12:37] <SolarisBoy> oops
[12:37] <SolarisBoy> <VirtualHost *:80>
[12:38] <cmpsalvestrini> Good morning in the morning
[12:38] <_Narc_> edeca: Ok, I don't get it, it mounts instantly on my older box, also running Karmic. :/
[12:38] <SolarisBoy> time to rest =)
[12:38] <Moat> can someone help me install scramdisk
[12:39] <Moat> ?
[12:39] <SolarisBoy> scramdisk?
[12:39] <edeca> _Narc_: Hm, could either be your hardware or karmic then I guess!
[12:39] <cmpsalvestrini> _Narc_: what is it that you're trying to mount
[12:39] <Oivey> does anyone know if i can make a bootable 128mb thumb drive of ubuntu?
[12:39] <Moat> yes scramdisk solarisboy
[12:40] <SolarisBoy> Moat: http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/
[12:40] <_Narc_> cmpsalvestrini: a USB key, FAT formatted. It takes like 5 minutes to mount on my first Ubuntu box and mounts instantly on the other one ...
[12:40] <SolarisBoy> i dont know about scram disk you can use devmapper to implement encrypted block devs
[12:40] <Moat> riiight
[12:40] <generic> SolarisBoy: thx i restarted it and it working now
[12:41] <Moat> does truecrypt work for ubuntu 9.10?
[12:41] <SolarisBoy> generic: sweet ness what was wrong?
[12:41] <LaLeche> !info kdm
[12:41] <IdleOne> Moat: just download the .deb file and double click it
[12:41] <LaLeche> !info kdm 9.10
[12:41] <generic> SolarisBoy: probably traffic...
[12:41] <LaLeche> !info kdm hardy
[12:41] <generic> other than that i have no real answer
[12:41] <LaLeche> is it possible to combine Ubuntu and Kubuntu?
[12:42] <generic> thanks again though.
[12:42] <LaLeche> to have both Gnome and KDE ?
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> LaLeche:  trivial to do that
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> LaLeche:  install kubuntu-dektop packagte   done
[12:42] <LaLeche> ok thx
[12:42] <SolarisBoy> generic which is why i asked is the host under high loads...
[12:42] <cmpsalvestrini> _Narc_: Usually such problems are related either with the kernel driver or maybe there's a .conf problem somewhere? I've never had mounting issues with ubu except when it fsck's an usb stick that I insert, then it's where it gets a bit slow.
[12:43] <Moat> Idleone
[12:43] <Moat> what kind of truecrypt do i get
[12:44] <Moat> i run ubuntu 9.10 on 32bit
[12:44] <jeeez> are there any plugins for firefox that'll help reduce my mouse usage?
[12:45] <Gryllida> jeeez, hang on
[12:45] <_Narc_> cmpsalvestrini: Ya, it's slow too. But why on the first box and not the other ? Could it be a permission problem or something like that ? Which conf files can I check ?
[12:45] <Gryllida> jeez, irc://moznet/firefox
[12:45] <Gryllida> jeeez, irc://moznet/firefox
[12:45] <jeeez> Gryllida: thanks!
[12:46] <Skaba1> co porabiacie
[12:46] <guest1w33> hey i cant find anywhere to find help for an ttdsi does anyone have one
[12:46] <Skaba1> Who is from Poland?
[12:46] <edeca> Skaba1: Polish people
[12:46] <cmpsalvestrini> _Narc_: Try finding a way to disable fsck on insertion, that may make it more zippy. As for which .conf files manage that, I've yet to find them...
[12:46] <Skaba1> yes
[12:47] <Myrtti> !pl | Skaba1
[12:47] <SolarisBoy> my friend at work is from poland =)
[12:47] <_Narc_> cmpsalvestrini: OK, thanks, I'll check that
[12:48] <SolarisBoy> cmpsalvestrini: fstab?
[12:48] <cmpsalvestrini> _Narc_: np bro, glad I could point you somewhere
[12:49] <Moat> I wanna download truecrypt, I'm using ubuntu 9.10 and running 32bit, what do i download?
[12:49] <cmpsalvestrini> SolarisBoy: I thought it was /etc/fstab too, maybe it needs to be tweaked for not fsck'ing USB sticks on insertion...
[12:49] <edeca> Moat: www.truecrypt.org has packages
[12:49] <Moat> which one?
[12:50] <IdleOne> Moat: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1190053
[12:50] <cmpsalvestrini> SolarisBoy: Speaking of Solaris, may I DCC? I got a question abt OpenSolaris
[12:52] <rascal999> is it possible to netboot the squashfs on the livecd uncompressed?
[12:52] <IdleOne> Moat: you want to download the x86 version if you are running 32bit
[12:53] <deserteagle> good morning!
[12:54] <Gryllida> good morning
[12:54] <deserteagle> :D
[12:54] <deserteagle> quick question: why does Rox-filer and file-roller (archive manager) show the wrong file size?
[12:55] <deserteagle> i'm downloading something through bittorrent, it says the d/l is barely 20% done... yet both apps show the file as complete
[12:56] <deserteagle> both in file size and after having done an integrity test on it
[12:56] <cmpsalvestrini> deserteagle: probably the file is corrrupted, have you checked CRC?  Also, torrent downloads work in parts, you get the full file size reported but it will not be "truly"that size until the download finishes.
[12:56] <Advo> Hi there, if a program has made a directory called: full-20100220.084714.936  is that just "full-" plus a GMT timestamp? if so, is there any way I can generate that myself? ie if i ran now it would make name something full-"current timestamp as GMT with milliseconds"?
[12:56] <erUSUL> deserteagle: probably the torrent app reserved the space for the file upfront. that's why it is full size in the filesystem
[12:56] <deserteagle> cmpsalvestrini, ooooh i see, so it physically occupies that much space?
[12:56] <green_lantern> hello... I am going to set up a home server with 8.04 server and I would like to attach the printer.  I will have windows computers on the network as well- will cups do the job?
[12:57] <deserteagle> erUSUL, gotcha! :D thank you guys
[12:57] <erUSUL> Advo: man date
[12:57] <cmpsalvestrini> deserteagle: yw mate
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> deserteagle:  thats a option with some torrent clients. also some can append a extension to the end to show the file is not done yet
[12:57] <erUSUL> deserteagle: that reduces the chance for file fagmentation
[12:57] <deserteagle> makes sense
[12:57] <Advo> if ive got a pc with one HD in(running ubuntu) and /opt/ is 200G, is it easy enough to add another harddrive, and sort of add that to /opt/ so if i add a new 200g hd, it would make /opt 400G or isnt that possible?
[12:57] <deserteagle> Dr_Willis, ooh nice! i'll look into that, thank you :)
[12:58] <erUSUL> Advo: you can make a lvm volume with both drives and mount that as /opt/
[12:59] <Advo> erUSUL will that cause problems with the existing /opt dir? as i cant afford to lose the data on there? i just need to somehow increase the space :S
[13:00] <santantonio> #irc.onlinegamesnet.net
[13:00] <deserteagle> Advo, back it up, do what he said, then slap the data back on
[13:00] <erUSUL> Advo: really dunno; just giving pointers on how to achieve what you want. you will have to research a little yourself.
[13:01] <Advo> deserteagle its really not that easy
[13:01] <Moat> Idleone I got the x86version, nothing happened

[13:05] <Maian> Hi
[13:05] <erUSUL> Advo: i do not think is possible to use lvm after the fact ... you will have to find another way. like mounting the new partition inside the /opt/ hierarchy or something like that
[13:05] <deserteagle> hi :)

[13:15] <nathan7> _Narc_: USB hub speed?
[13:15] <nathan7> _Narc_: Try plugging it in the back
[13:15] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, and this is the first one: http://www.4shared.com/file/121579524/8bb9dec3/MMPCV_Berer_N_Nada_2009_Creati.html?s=1

[13:19] <hannes815> soreau: if compiz is deactevated and i can plug in the second monitor, trying to run compiz --replace or trying to switch it on in the menues, it doesn't work, presenting a error:"Desktop effects could not be enabled" and if you tell me how to paste console-text i'll give you that.
[13:19] <tana-lab> what do I do, if a package installs okay, however the application installed is broken?
[13:19] <soreau> hannes815: Use pastebin.com
[13:20] <Darks7ar> cmpsalvestrini: can u give an example of the name of the device. is it /dev/sdb?
[13:20] <Moat> IdleOne I saved the thing to my home folder, so what do i put in?
[13:20] <cmpsalvestrini> Darks7ar: I had in mind a module search on google for your sd readre
[13:20] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, do you do some music?
[13:21] <cmpsalvestrini> Darkst7ar: I'm not at my ubu box atm
[13:21] <IdleOne> Moat: cd /home/your_user_name
[13:21] <Darks7ar> cmpsalvestrini: ok. 10x
[13:21] <mongoosedog> hello all
[13:21] <nathan7> _Narc_: unplug usb stick and check hub speeds.
[13:21] <Moat> how do i check my username IDLEone
[13:21] <psycho_oreos> Moat, id
[13:21] <Nemykal> Hi, could someone pastebin their menu.list/grub.conf? Just wanna see how I can make booting more quiet (I'm on gentoo, on my laptop)
[13:21] <psycho_oreos> Moat, you can also simply do cd ~
[13:21] <hannes815> soreau: there you go.
[13:21] <IdleOne> moat type id in the terminal
[13:21] <Moat> done
[13:21] <blakkheim> psycho_oreos: or just cd
[13:21] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: I've had  play hydrogen and ardour - my equipment just ain't up to scratch - plus I'm not very good at it
[13:22] <PianoPete> nasso_: just saw your msg.   there is a known bug in Karmic (see launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/484272
[13:22] <PianoPete> ) where gdm is gobbling up keystrokes instead of he console seeing them as your passphrase. Could this be your problem ?
[13:22]  * Zuz|Home is still trying to find someone to help him get wubi to work properly, wubi installed but when the computer is restarted there is no option to select windows xp or ubuntu. Can anyone help me fix this?
[13:22] <soreau> hannes815: You have to post the link it gives you back here
[13:22] <psycho_oreos> blakkheim, I don't think cd will change your pwd to your home directory :)
[13:22] <blakkheim> Zuz|Home: try a real installation
[13:22] <blakkheim> psycho_oreos: try it
[13:22] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: I was planning to record against the free backing tracks that you can download from the net (guitar)
[13:22] <_Narc_> nathan7: Ok, thanks, I'll explore that
[13:22] <hannes815> http://pastebin.com/m764a8a64 that one? soreau?
[13:22] <psycho_oreos> blakkheim, ahh that works :) good to know new ways thanks
[13:22] <Zuz|Home> Blakheim, I dont have a cd burner not ubuntu CDs  :(
[13:22] <tana-lab> Nemykal: timeout 5
[13:22] <tana-lab> default 0
[13:23] <blakkheim> Zuz|Home: usb drive?
[13:23] <hannes815> soreau: sorry, kinda new ;)
[13:23] <Zuz|Home> nope
[13:23] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: can you boot into windows xp at all?
[13:23] <soreau> hannes815: That is ok. Here is the problem: Checking screen 1Comparing resolution (2560x1024) to maximum 3D texture size (2048): Failed.
[13:23] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: 27% downloaded
[13:23] <Zuz|Home> yes
[13:23] <soreau> hannes815: So can you show the output of xrandr?
[13:23] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: yes to me?
[13:23] <Zuz|Home> yes zetheroo
[13:23] <tana-lab> at the top of your grub.conf
[13:23] <cmpsalvestrini> Best path is to install ubu on its own, preferably without double-booting, and virtualize a windows box for those windows programs that don't have a gnu/linux equivalent
[13:24] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: when you boot into Windows do you notice any change to your hard drive sizes?
[13:24] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, i havent equipment. lol I've done all with mouse and keyboard.
[13:24] <soreau> hannes815: Actually, what is the output of:  glxinfo -l|grep max_texture_size
[13:24] <hannes815> soreau: how? i think i'm using arandr right now (tried with grandr, xrandr, and arandr) so i don't necessarily now
[13:24] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, LMMS is great :)
[13:24] <Nemykal> tana-lab: Already got the equivalents; I just want to see a ubuntu example grub.conf so I can grab the quiet / splash commands
[13:24] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: what's lmms?
[13:25] <kareneliot_> computa_mike: and Ubuntu gives me happyness with no crashes!

[13:25] <cheem-elegant> hi all, mysql server not running after upgrading from jaunty to karmic. i have checked forums and also applied changes but no success till now.. it is very annoying
[13:25] <uday> How do i install a intex TV tuner card
[13:25] <Nemykal> So can anyone quickly pastebin their /boot/grub/menu.lst for me?
[13:25] <WiW> Somebody please help me. I'm trying to run Ubuntu (made with LinuxLive USB Creator 2.4), and it keeps getting stuck after that bit where it loads the essential drivers, runs those scripts and sets up a live user session/profile/whatever it's called. Then the screen goes blank and I get a blinking cursor...
[13:26] <Zuz|Home> zetheroo, yes I see ubuntu installed, its on the add/remove software, it has the 30gb space I gave, cmpsalvestrini, im not sure if you were saying that to me, but I do already have an ubuntu machine, this is my windows machine but I want to have ubuntu for fun
[13:26] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: yeah - i love ubuntu
[13:26] <saganbyte> i m trying to look for gimpshop but the only link i m getting is a rapidshare page which is too crowded to allow me a download... any suggestions how i can get gimpshop on ubuntu?
[13:26] <WiW> I tried rebuilding Ubuntu on the USB, but no avail.
[13:26] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: ok so you want to run Ubuntu from within Windows and not dual boot?
[13:26] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, Linux MultiMedia Studio: a sequencer similar to Fruity Loops Studio. http://lmms.sourceforge.net/
[13:26] <soreau> hannes815: Just show the output of:  glxinfo -l|grep max_texture_size
[13:26] <mongoosedog> just wondering if any one can help me? i've tried to intall ubuntu 9.10 and dual boot it with windows vista, the both boot up, vista runs fine but ubuntu freezes, it let me play a game of tetris, but trying to set up empathy it froze, trying to start firefox it froze again, next time it let me start firefox, the froze when i typed in the google search box? it's my first time with ubuntu some i'm pretty clueless
[13:27] <computa_mike> kareneliot_: I'm downloading it right now...
[13:27] <Zuz|Home> zetheroo, no, i want to dual boot, im using "wubi" to do it, I actually used that on my little cousins windows 2000 computer last night and It workd flawless
[13:28] <hannes815> soreau: sorry, i really don't know where to look, how to get this information :(
[13:28] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: I thought Wubi enabled Ubuntu to be installed within Windows as any other application would be installed
[13:28] <soreau> hannes815: In your terminal where you ran compiz
[13:28] <WiW> Am I asking the wrong questions, because it seems I can't get support on this channel at all...
[13:28] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, LMMS is in development... its not a FL Studio at all... but I dont need FL Studio now :)
[13:28] <Zuz|Home> zetheroo, something like that, but you still dual boot  :)
[13:28] <soreau> ribot is pmming spam
[13:29] <kasun> hello,
[13:29] <zetheroo> what is ribot?
[13:29] <soreau> ! ops | ribot
[13:29] <ribot> sorry i was making script
[13:29] <computa_mike> i just had rbot spamming me about a serial
[13:29] <hannes815> soreau: http://pastebin.com/d13e5442
[13:29] <cmpsalvestrini> Zuz|Home: Win Vista is notoriously prickly about its bootloader, it's a real PITR to have it dualboot. That's one of the reasons why I chose to go the linux way in all my machines (well except for an ati based laptop)
[13:29] <Zuz|Home> zetheroo, my problem is that it didnt change the boot loader, so im not getting the options to switch to ubuntu
[13:29] <computa_mike> ubottu ribot
[13:29] <WiW> Alright, thanks. I give up on Ubuntu.
[13:30] <soreau> hannes815: Oh sorry, I meant grep -i max_texture_size
[13:30] <kasun> can anybody tel me how to reload /etc/resolv.conf file
[13:30] <zetheroo> can someone confirm if Wubi allows you do dual boot ... I thought it installs Ubuntu INSIDE of Windows ...
[13:30] <tana-lab> Nemykal: http://grub.enbug.org/grub.cfg
[13:30] <soreau> hannes815: Or use MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE
[13:30] <Zuz|Home> cmpsalvestrini, you might be right, but im on XP
[13:30] <tyfon> anyone know how to install ubuntu in text-mode only (like via serial console and no vga output)
[13:30] <GSF1200S> hey whats the symbol thats used to tell firefox to open link X
[13:30] <GSF1200S> almost like the $ sign
[13:30] <zetheroo> Zuz|Home: oh, so no GRUB
[13:30] <tyfon> the grub interface defaults to graphics output for some reason
[13:30] <cmpsalvestrini> Zuz|Home: I think wubi does not truly allow dualboot
[13:30] <GSF1200S> im trying to write a simple script to get Tbird to open FF to a web link I click
[13:31] <computa_mike> guys - what's this ribot?
[13:31] <hannes815> soreau: takes a while ;)
 wubi allows dual boot. yes its true, it installs under windows but gives the capability for dual boot
[13:31] <ikonia> he's gone
[13:31] <soreau> hannes815: Start a new terminal and run:  glxinfo -l | grep -i max_texture_size
[13:31] <kareneliot_> tyfon, I think you need to download and use the "Alternate" version of Ubuntu.
[13:31] <lorenzo_> #ubuntu-it
[13:31] <tyfon> hmm
[13:32] <MenZa> lorenzo_: /join #ubuntu-it :)
[13:32] <tyfon> maybe the mini.iso isn't correct afterall :p
[13:32] <zetheroo> kasun: ok cool
 it edits windows bootloader
[13:32] <rabbi1> i got lots of fonts in my windows/fonts how do i embed it in to linux?
[13:32] <hannes815> soreau: GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 2048
[13:32] <nasso_> PianoPete, thanks! fixed it with bootwait
[13:32] <MenZa> rabbi1: You can install them in ~/.fonts, then run < sudo fc-cache -r > to reload your font cache.
[13:32] <nasso_> PianoPete, im looking for a way to mount all partitions with just one password now
[13:32] <rabbi1> MenZa: install mean copy paste with do ?
[13:33] <MenZa> rabbi1: Correct. Just drop them in there.
[13:33] <cmpsalvestrini> well guys it's been fun but... time to hit the rays
[13:33] <soreau> hannes815: Ok, that is the maximum total resolution size you can start compiz 0.8 in any dimension. So for example, 1024x768 for both screens would work, but not 1280x1024
[13:33] <Zuz|Home> cmpsalvestrini, what ever it truly does, I installed it on a windows 2000 last night, worked really nice, everytime we restarted the machine we had the option of selecting windows 2000 or ubuntu, it booted straight to that OS when we selected and I loved it... I just want to get wubi to work on my machine, can you help?
[13:34] <soreau> hannes815: This is a graphics chipset hardware limit btw
[13:34] <kareneliot_> tyfon, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors
[13:34] <tyfon> yeah im downloading it :9
[13:34] <cmpsalvestrini> sorry, never used wubi Zuz, always did either a dualboot with windows or an all-ubuntu installation.
[13:34] <hannes815> soreau: so how would i do that and what resolution do i wanna use?
[13:34] <tyfon> i just figured it would work with the netboot installer too
[13:34] <kasun> hello, can anybody tel me how to reload /etc/resolv.conf file???
[13:35] <tana-lab> what do I do, if a package installs okay, however the application installed is broken?
[13:35] <ikonia> kasun: it's real time
[13:35] <jrib> GSF1200S: why are you writing a script at all?  There shouldn't be any need to
[13:35] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: apt-get -f
[13:35] <kasun> ikonia, what do you mean by real time?
[13:35] <soreau> hannes815: Just try setting both screens to 1024x<anything> and compiz should be able to start
[13:36] <ikonia> kasun: it's parsed real time
[13:36] <hannes815> soreau: cool, i'll try it out. is that hardware limit supposed to be driver-fixed or permanent?
[13:36] <GSF1200S> jrib: im on seperate X sessions- firefox has a lock on the existing process. I have to run a script to go to DISPLAY=:0.0 Firefox... but I dont know the operand or whatever to tell thunderbird to insert its link
[13:36] <SolarisBoy> how is 9.04 support for i7 processor?
[13:36] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: apt-get install -f
[13:36] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, in leavin.
[13:36] <soreau> hannes815: Alternatively you can start compiz like this but it will probably cause problems:  SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz
[13:36] <ikonia> soreau: fine
[13:36] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: there are no broken dependencies that apt-get can tell
[13:37] <soreau> ikonia: Thanks! :)
[13:37] <kareneliot_> computa_mike, tyfon: good bye and nice days!
[13:37] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: you would   apt-get install -f package
[13:37] <kasun> ikonia, okay thanks.
[13:37] <jrib> GSF1200S: just pass the arguments directly to the firefox command
[13:37] <tana-lab> as the package dependencies are installed too
[13:37] <GSF1200S> jrib: how so?
[13:38] <ikonia> soreau: sorry, that was meant for SolarisBoy
[13:38] <kareneliot_> hey all: $cd heart  $apt-get install anarchism
[13:38] <ikonia> SolarisBoy: support is fine
[13:38] <soreau> hannes815: The hardware limit I believe is fixed in software with compiz-0.9
[13:38] <chartoin> I am having a bit of a problem. I get and error saying libreadline.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[13:38] <soreau> ikonia: I know, Im just poking fun at you ;)
[13:38] <EgYPaRaDoX> is it possible to change dependencies?
[13:38] <ikonia> EgYPaRaDoX: not without rebuilding a package
[13:38] <GSF1200S> jrib: haha man, i dont know what the hell im doing... tryin
[13:39] <chartoin> Please help me
[13:39] <chartoin> I am having a bit of a problem. I get and error saying libreadline.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[13:39] <ikonia> chartoin: doing what ?
[13:39] <ninja> hello. have installed xubuntu 9.10. I am having problems getting codecs for playing avi and mkv files. any suggestions?
[13:39] <jrib> GSF1200S: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide

[13:39] <chartoin> I am trying to run a Yahoo TV widget simulator
[13:40] <GSF1200S> jrib: thanks
[13:40] <ikonia> chartoin: ok, so it's complaining that a libraray it needs, is not on your system
[13:40] <_Narc_> Hello. Sorry to ask again. Any idea why my 16 GB USB key takes forever to mount (or doesn't mount at all) on my first Ubuntu box and mounts instantly on Win and my other Karmic box ? Thanks a lot.
[13:40] <umang> ninja, Have you tried installing ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[13:40] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: that error may or may not have to do with broken dependencies then
[13:40] <chartoin> I tried apt-get install libreadline5
[13:40] <soreau> chartoin: You probably need to install the libreadline5 package
[13:40] <gautham> whats the best way to download offline updates and packages for ubuntu ?
[13:40] <chartoin> its installed
[13:40] <tana-lab> indeed, it's the package that's broken
[13:41] <soreau> chartoin: What is giving you this message?
[13:41] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: likely the actual build of that particular package
[13:41] <umang> gautham, A download script from Synaptic Package Manager.
[13:41] <chartoin> soreau, When I run the simulator, it opens up a terminal
[13:41] <ninja> umang: this is the first time I have tried linux. I am ashamed to say, I do not know how to do that.
[13:41] <gautham> umang: any link or howto ?
[13:41] <chartoin> soreau, I get the error in the terminal
[13:41] <tana-lab> the maintainer of the packages is: Ubuntu MOTU Developers<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[13:42] <ikonia> chartoin: because it can't find the libarary
[13:42] <Darks7ar> ubuntu can't work with my card reader. when i plug in sd card dmesg says:[ 3234.064068] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[13:42] <Darks7ar> [ 3234.207296] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[13:42] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: where did you get the package from?
[13:42] <tana-lab> but that seems to be a catch all
[13:42] <umang> gautham, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Synaptic/PackageDownloadScript
[13:42] <chartoin> so what should I do?
[13:42] <soreau> chartoin: What is the output of:  ls /lib/libreadline.so.5
[13:42] <Darks7ar> what to do?
[13:42] <ikonia> chartoin: see if the library is on your system first of all
[13:43] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: karamic repo
[13:43] <sebsebseb> ninja: open the terminal and then  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:43] <sebsebseb> ninja: and hit enter
[13:43] <chartoin> soreau, chartoin@Iris:~$ ls /lib/libreadline5.so
[13:43] <chartoin> ls: cannot access /lib/libreadline5.so: No such file or directory
[13:43] <ikonia> chartoin: ok, so there is the problem the files not there
[13:43] <tana-lab> *karmic
[13:44] <soreau> chartoin: Which version of ubuntu is this?
[13:44] <chartoin> soreau, 9.10
[13:44] <soreau> chartoin: You probably need to reinstall the libreadline5 package then. Remove it first, then reinstall it.
[13:44] <umang> ninja, Use Synaptic package manager to install a package called ubuntu-restricted-extras. To reach that package fast, just click on any package, and start typing ubuntu-restric... and it will get selected. Click it chose to install. Then click OK and Apply.
[13:44] <chartoin> soreau, Okay
[13:44] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: looks like it's an actual issue with the game itself http://www.pygame.org/project/455/

[13:45] <Darks7ar> guys is there a way of installing new module without compiling new kernel
[13:45] <tana-lab> but it's works on my gentoo
[13:45] <Dr_Willis_> Darks7ar:  ive done that.. years ago. so yes its possible
[13:45] <tana-lab> so it's this version that's broken
[13:46] <Darks7ar> Dr_Willis_: will u help me?
[13:46] <ninja> cannot find it. size is no problem 40/10 mbit conn.
[13:46] <tana-lab> I could do a source install however it'll just clutter up the system
[13:46] <chartoin> soreau, ikonia, thanks a lot guys
[13:46] <chartoin> that worked
[13:46] <soreau> Darks7ar: Yes, you can build kernel modules out-of-tree without building the kernel
[13:46] <chartoin> You are geniuses
[13:46] <soreau> chartoin: NP
[13:46] <Dr_Willis_> Darks7ar:  Last i did it was proerly over 5 yrs ago. so i doubt if i can help much,
[13:47] <dizzycat> ninja: it's in the ubuntu software center
[13:47] <Darks7ar> soreau: can u help me
[13:47] <umang> ninja, do you know how to use the terminal?
[13:47] <Dr_Willis_> Darks7ar:  got the soruce. confoguired what modules to build.. and ran some command that made them.. that was all i rember.
[13:47] <umang> ninja, (just how to open it is enough)
[13:47] <soreau> Darks7ar: Perhaps. First, what module is it and why do you want to install it?
[13:47] <hannes8151> soreau: it kinda worked :( it prsented the same error "desktop effects can't be enabled" but with console it activated, but the whole screen went black except for the cursor.
[13:47] <phong_> hi
[13:47] <phong_> i have question, how to do a command update
[13:47] <hannes8151> soreau: so what's still wrong?
[13:47] <tana-lab> or could I make a working dep package and install that?
[13:47] <phong_> sudo apt-get udate ??
[13:47] <soreau> hannes8151: What did you do exactly?
[13:47] <tana-lab> never tried that yet
[13:48] <blakkheim> phong_: sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[13:48] <Darks7ar> soreau: its ehci_hcd i want to install it because my card reader doesn't work.
[13:48] <dr0id> anyone having any idea how I can get mysql workbench on linux-ubuntu 9.04
[13:48] <soreau> Darks7ar: Did you find some source code for it?
[13:48] <ninja> found it. downloading now. thanks
[13:48] <Darks7ar> soreau: im not sure if thats the problem but dmesg gives the following when i put my sd card:[ 3234.064068] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[13:48] <Darks7ar> [ 3234.207296] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

[13:49] <umang> ninja, You're welcome. :)
[13:49] <dizzycat> ninja : you're welcome
[13:49] <soreau> hannes8151: Hmmm.. that is strange..
[13:49] <Darks7ar> soreau: no i havent searched yet because i didn't know if it was possible
[13:49] <phong_> blakkheim, got itt hanks
[13:49] <militant> i'm curious.  any reason ubuntu defaults to a swappiness of 60 specifically?
[13:49] <umang> gautham, did you find what you were looking for?
[13:49] <dr0id> anyone having any idea how I can get mysql workbench on linux-ubuntu 9.04
[13:50] <soreau> Darks7ar: My guess is there is likely some other problem. What specific problem are you having with the sd card reader?
[13:50] <ninja> also get the error message "HAL daemon is not running upon startup. any ideas?
[13:50] <tana-lab> how do one make a dep package
[13:50] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: yeah, you could try the deb-src pkg and see if you have better luck
[13:50] <gautham> umang: not yet. problem is I have a laptop with ubuntu which needs to be updated and a desktop with windowsxp and archlinux which has internet
[13:51] <JulioNeto> hi all
[13:51] <umang> gautham, That's find. Almost any linux has wget. If not, use DownloadThemAll on Windows
[13:51] <Darks7ar> soreau: it just doesn't work. its builtin. i bought new notebook recently.
[13:51] <ajah> i tried to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu ( ubuntu installed first) but when i set up menu.lst and try to boot windows from grub menu it says BOOTMGR missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart any suggestions ?
[13:51] <gautham> and I want kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, lxde, icewm, ubuntu-studio-desktop packages downloaded
[13:51] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: see apt-get build-dep in the manpage, about your dependency question
[13:51] <computa_mike> Hi guys - I have a question about insalling themes under ubuntu.  I've tried installing the Genoid theme - it's a gtk theme to look like android.  It installs the widget graphics ok, but once it is applied it appears as Custom on the list - I would have thought that installing a theme would make it visible on the appearance screen. Am I doing something wrong?
[13:51] <gautham> along with ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:51] <soreau> Darks7ar: Can you show the information about it from lsusb?
[13:51] <gautham> umang: can I get updated packages ?
[13:52] <Grufle> how do I configure which input method Empathy uses in Karmic? The internal mic on my Acer aspire one works (so so) in skype but not in empathy. I've removed pulseaudio and installed alsa instead just to get the mic working somewhat
[13:52] <hannes8151> soreau: you got any more ideas? you know when compiz 0.9 is out?
[13:52] <Grufle> only program the mic worked in with pulseaudio was sound recorder
[13:52] <umang> gautham, Oh. I get your point. Let me check
[13:52] <Darks7ar> soreau: how do i find it in lsusb?
[13:52] <soreau> Darks7ar: Just type lsusb in your terminal
[13:52] <GSF1200S> jrib: nice guide, and you were right.. $@ passed it through and it works no issue
[13:52] <ajah> i tried to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu ( ubuntu installed first) but when i set up menu.lst and try to boot windows from grub menu it says BOOTMGR missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart any suggestions ?
[13:53] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: I was thinking to fetch the newest tarball and compile it in a "sandbox"
[13:53] <Darks7ar> its not usb connected its built in my notebook
[13:53] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: yeah, that might be worth a shot
[13:53] <soreau> hannes8151: I am not sure why it would be behaving this way because it should work. Maybe you can try asking in #compiz
[13:53] <Darks7ar> soreau: i typed it in but how do i understand which exactly is the card readeer
[13:53] <tana-lab> and then make a dep package from that... that last step is all I don't know about
[13:53] <soreau> Darks7ar: Oh well, look at the output of lspci
[13:54] <Darks7ar> ive already done that
[13:54] <skaba> who gameing in china metin2
[13:54] <Darks7ar> i've*
[13:54] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: but you say apt-get build-dep's manpage has some guide lines?
[13:54] <hannes8151> soreau: thank you.
[13:54] <soreau> Darks7ar: I am trying to find out the model of this card reader
[13:54] <skaba> Who from poland?
[13:55] <umang> gautham, This page has a section on "Offline apt-get update", see if that helps. Might not be super simple, but check it out anyways. : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
[13:55] <Darks7ar> soreau: my notebook is acer extensa 5635zg
[13:55] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: apt-get's manpage.  There's apt-get build-dep that you can use to bring in the build dependencies
[13:55] <gautham> umang: part of my problem is the fact that the installation medium I used is not with me so I can't even live boot ubuntu
[13:55] <tana-lab> ah right
[13:55] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: generally the *-dev pkgs that have the needed headers for building said pkg
[13:56] <tana-lab> I did that for koffice
[13:56] <soreau> Darks7ar: Ok when you put in your sd card and look at the dmesg output, does it say anything about a /dev/ node?
[13:56] <umang> gautham, Sorry, didn't get you there. Where does the CD come into this?
[13:56] <tana-lab> :) indeed
[13:56] <JulioNeto> Guys I have a problem with firefox download windows: http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/869/downloadwindowproblem.jpg Do you have any ideia about why this thing is happeing?
[13:56] <gautham> umang: if i need to boot ubuntu live
[13:56] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: the upstream source has possibility to have different dependencies.  keep that in mind.
[13:56] <tana-lab> but
[13:57] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: if the upstream dev is good though, he'll list them
[13:57] <Darks7ar> soreau: nope
[13:57] <Darks7ar> soreau: http://pastebin.com/m30b4f616 here is lspci
[13:57] <phong_> blakkheim, why alot of update with aptitude :)
[13:57] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: but how do I make the deb package
[13:57] <umang> gautham, No you don't need to do that. You said you have a computer with internet (with Win or some other linux installed). You can download the packages from there and then bring them back to you Ubuntu machine.
[13:57] <Dr_Willis_> JulioNeto:  i just use a firefox extension that gets rid of that annoying download window and puts the info right above the status bar. Much handier
[13:57] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: easiest way is with checkinstall
[13:57] <blakkheim> phong_: maybe you haven't updated in a while
[13:57] <phong_> blakkheim, it is still doing the update hahah
[13:58] <gautham> umang: but how do I get list of updates ?
[13:58] <tana-lab> iirc it's just a tar with some special files in it
[13:58] <phong_> blakkheim, i just install ubuntu x64
[13:58] <militant> man.  i'm amazed how much difference changing the swappiness makes
[13:58] <theadmin> Can I embed HTML pages to GNOME desktop like in... ugh... Window$?
[13:58] <blakkheim> phong_: ok
[13:58] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: what's funny is I was going to recommend after you get upstream build all sorted out, to use checkinstall to make a deb pkg
[13:58] <Dr_Willis_> JulioNeto:  could be the window manager some how rembering some set size.  No idea on what/fix/or other solutions however
[13:58] <JulioNeto> Dr_Willis, it's a good idea... what's the plugin's name?
[13:58] <umang> gautham, The psedo-repository method outlined in the link I gave you last.
[13:58] <umang> gautham, end of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
[13:58] <Dr_Willis_> JulioNeto:  i forget. some download-bar or somthing.    let me look
[13:58] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: checkinstall hmm... kay...
[13:59] <umang> gautham, well, not exactly end, but towards the end. ;)
[13:59] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: checkinstall is nice and easy which is fine for personal packages, but if you end up wanting to contribute the pkg to ubuntu/debian, you'll want to follow their packaging standards
[13:59] <soreau> Darks7ar: If you dont receive any errors in dmesg and it said it found the card my guess would be that you just need to do something to access the device. I have never used an sd card reader or sd card before so I dont know exactly where you would look. Try searching google for sd card reader ubuntu
[13:59] <Dr_Willis_> JulioNeto:  i forget. some download-statusbar
[14:00] <Dr_Willis_> JulioNeto:  --> It says -->  download-statusbar
[14:00] <jackbrown> Hey i installed my Webcam drivers and they seems to works correctly (also when i reboot the system) the only problem is that when the system goes suspended then it came back my camera won't works again is anybody able to help me ?
[14:00] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: :) well I did have have that in mind at the end
[14:00] <umang> gautham, You will need to create the repository like this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Offline/Repository and then add it to your sources (as explained) then generate the download script and edit it.
[14:00] <Darks7ar> soreau: dmesg gives error thats why i wanted to compile ehci_hcd module
[14:00] <gautham> umang: whoa! sounds like a serious amount of work
[14:00] <soreau> Darks7ar: What error?
[14:01] <JulioNeto> Dr_Willis, tks ;)
[14:01] <jackbrown>  installed my Webcam drivers and they seems to works correctly (also when i reboot the system) the only problem is that when the system goes suspended then it came back my camera won't works again is anybody able to help me ?
[14:02] <theadmin> jackbrown: Do not repeat too often. If nobody here knows, nobody answers. Checking the forums at ubuntuforums.org while you wait might be a good idea.
[14:02] <umang> gautham, It looked like that to me. But over the last couple of minutes, I've realized it isn't so much. Will take you five to ten minutes maybe. Download a couple of files, put them in a folder, add that folder to software sources and then do everything as usual (except you will need to do a find and replace on the download script).
[14:02] <jackbrown> ok
[14:02] <stylist> wot up
[14:02] <gautham> umang: how can I download "only" the package list ? I mean the updated packages list ?
[14:03] <Darks7ar> soreau: it wasn't error but message and i don't know why but i put it out and in and now i think it worked
[14:03] <aad> cha`o aad
[14:03] <aad> cha`o icho
[14:03] <aad> cha`o shoonya
[14:03] <NamCongtu> cha`o lewnidas_
[14:03] <PianoPete> nasso_: I've only ever had /home encrypted I'm afraid.  I don't know of a way to enter thepassword just once. Sorry.
[14:03] <NamCongtu> NamCongtu
[14:04] <gautham> umang: My installation is a vanilla Ubuntu 9.10 and I am trying to get the latest versions of all packages onto it
[14:04] <stylist> Hi people
[14:04] <stylist> someone help me
[14:04] <_Narc_> Sorry to ask again folks. Any idea why my 16 GB USB key takes forever to mount (or doesn't mount at all) on my first Ubuntu box and mounts instantly on Win and my other Karmic box ? Thanks a lot.
[14:04] <umang> gautham, BTW: I haven't done this before, I'm just telling you everything as I read the wiki. It seems to make sense to me so I presume it will work. About the list, just a second.
[14:04] <stylist> I install ubuntu 9.10 desktop i386
[14:04] <gautham> umang: the method suggested seems like it only downloads the october 2009 versions of the packages
[14:04] <theadmin> _Narc_: Might be something with the drivers, although doubt it.
[14:04] <NamCongtu> cha`o edwinrea
[14:04] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: thanks for the heads up, and suggestions
[14:05] <theadmin> !it | NamCongtu
[14:05] <edwinrea> hola amigos que tal
[14:05] <stylist> I install ubuntu 9.10 desktop i386  and my CRT would only show 640x480,   i installed the latest drivers from nvidias website, now the display is 1600x1200 BUT i seem to have no window manager, i can start a program but it has no border, no minimize maximise or close buttons in the top right hand corner, i cant move the window around
[14:05] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: you're welcome
[14:05] <NamCongtu> cha`o math_b
[14:05] <NamCongtu> cha`o marnold
[14:05] <NamCongtu> Ba^y gio*` la`  21:05:13  Saturday  20/02/2010
[14:05] <stylist> How can I fix that?
[14:05] <stylist> How can i have a window manager again
[14:05] <umang> gautham, Oh you run ahead of me.   I'm screwed, no?  Unless I want to wipe and reinstall...
[14:06] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: yeah, that's another idea -- making your own backport
[14:06] <_Narc_> theadmin: I read about that, some bug in the ehci_hcd module, but when I tried to modprobe it, it said "module  not found". Also, it's very strange cause both computers are running karmic.
[14:06] <gautham> umang: no I only read the link you gave me and checked my laptop out a bit
[14:06] <soreau> Darks7ar: Cool
[14:07] <Darks7ar> soreau: yep cool but strange also :)
[14:07] <PianoPete> guys - I have been using LUKS to create encrypted files which I can mount to keep sensitive data in. It is complex but made easier with the lfd shell script http://petaramesh.org/public/arc/projects/lfd/lfd. My question is, what is he recommended Ubuntu method for doing that these days ?
[14:07] <gautham> umang: basically I realize that I need a way to first download package updates information from another computer onto my ubuntu machine
[14:07] <PianoPete> s/he/the/
[14:07] <umang> gautham, OK. So if you get the files they've asked you to (Release, Contents, etc) from the link provided (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/) then you can create a repository without having to download all the packages on your computer.
[14:07] <Greyscale> Pidgin no longer appears in the system tray after a reinstall of it
[14:08] <soreau> Darks7ar: Sure beats trying to compile some kernel code without building the kernel :P
[14:08] <Greyscale> and it crashes at random
[14:08] <Greyscale> Anyone had this issue?
[14:08] <Darks7ar> :)
[14:08] <theadmin> Greyscale: First - go to Tools - Preferences and enable the tray icon there (is it enabled already? it's disabled defaultly)
[14:08] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: one thing I was thinking though, before go through all that trouble, you might go through the problem packages dependencies with a fine tooth comb, it could be a simple case of the pkg maintainer screwing up in putting the right depends in his control file
[14:08] <Greyscale> Its gone and crashed again \o/
[14:09] <jackbrown> nstalled my Webcam drivers and they seems to works correctly (also when i reboot the system) the only problem is that when the system goes suspended then it came back my camera won't works again is anybody able to help me ?
[14:09] <wolfwalker_prime> Currently running Ubuntu 9.10.  How do you get that (deleted) (censored) (redacted) (expurgated) update manager to stop popping up?
[14:09] <umang> gautham, Yes. You're right. So that information is stored in Release, Release.gpg and Contents-i386.gz in karmic/ karmic-updates/ and karmic-security/. Download for all of them.
[14:09] <PingFloyd> tana-lab: and I've seen it where sometimes a program will simply segfault when there is a dependency missing
[14:09] <umang> gautham, Sorry, am I running ahead?
[14:09] <theadmin> wolfwalker_prime: Just a sec
[14:09] <gautham> umang: nope you are not'
[14:09] <gautham> I'm on it just wait a sec
[14:09] <Greyscale> theadmin, well, that explains the missing icon, but not the continual crashing
[14:10] <theadmin> Greyscale: Yeah, maybe it's somewhat unstable. Have no problems myself though
[14:10] <wolfwalker_prime> And why does it even pop up at all in the last two versions?  Pop-up is a bad word these days, the icon at the top right that lit up orange was enough.
[14:10] <Greyscale> Mhh
[14:10] <umang> gautham, Yes. Those are the files that contain the package information. Put them on your Ubuntu machine and add those dirs as your software sources. Then your repository info is updated. After that you can create your download script
[14:10] <tana-lab> PingFloyd: I'll check that as well
[14:11] <theadmin> wolfwalker_prime: This can be returned. Some just didn't notice it
[14:11] <erUSUL> jackbrown: put your module name in the MODULES variable in /etc/default/acpid
[14:11] <gautham> umang: will try and report back in 5 mins
[14:11] <umang> gautham, But the download script will have locations on your computer (because it assumes the whole repo is on your computer).
[14:11] <nasso_> PianoPete, okay :( i have everything except /boot encrypted. sucks to have to type the password 3 times though
[14:11] <gautham> but yeah idea is good
[14:11]  * Zuz|Home is still trying to find someone to help him get wubi to work properly, wubi installed but when the computer is restarted there is no option to select windows xp or ubuntu. Can anyone help me fix this? I think there is a way to manually add wubi to the boot loader but i dont know why...
[14:11] <umang> gautham, Yeah Sure
[14:11] <theadmin> wolfwalker_prime: Run this to return it to tray-icon mode: gconftool -s --type bool /apps/update-notifier/auto_launch false
[14:11] <jackbrown>  erUSUL: how can i do that ?
[14:11] <jackbrown> erUSUL: what command to check which module is running ?
[14:11] <erUSUL> jackbrown: with a text editor. « gksudo gedit /etc/default/acpid »
[14:12] <wolfwalker_prime> Thanks.
[14:12] <PianoPete> wolfwalker_prime: it was a controversial change. Mark Shuttleworth 'mandated it' ccording to the Ubuntu UK podcast series 2 ep 1 or 2.
[14:12] <erUSUL> jackbrown: lsmod
[14:12] <PianoPete> nasso_: glad it works.  SUpposed to be fixed in lucid anway.
[14:12] <jackbrown> acpid is an empty file
[14:12] <wolfwalker_prime> Well how about it pops up every oh, say.......... two weeks?
[14:12] <wolfwalker_prime> Instead of every two hours.
[14:12] <gautham> umang: wait a sec, Am I not combining the 3 repos into one ? I think I need to have 3 different folders for mirroring each of the repositories
[14:12] <tafkaz_73> hi i have following problem on my ubuntu karmic machine with pulse
[14:12] <tafkaz_73> shm_unlink(/pulse-shm-1216269539) failed: Permission denied
[14:12] <tafkaz_73> 2010-02-20 15:02:10.271 Deleting UPnP client...
[14:12] <theadmin> wolfwalker_prime: It pops up when there are "critical security updates"
[14:13] <nasso_> PianoPete, yeah. you cant be careful enough ;)
[14:13] <tafkaz_73> anyone has any idea, what could be wrong?
[14:13] <umang> gautham, I think so. So keep the three of them separately and add each one of them individually to your sources
[14:13] <nathan7> tafkaz_73: everything
[14:13]  * nathan7 hides
[14:13] <erUSUL> jackbrown: sudo aptitude install acpid
[14:13] <PianoPete> wolfwalker_prime: I thought it was supposed to pop up once a week if you hadn't run uodate or synaptic in the last 7 days
[14:13] <tafkaz_73> nathan7:  ?
[14:14] <nathan7> EVERYTHING could be wrong
[14:14] <jackbrown> erUSUL: http://www.pastebin.com/d56b6394
[14:14] <tafkaz_73> ah sorry. now i got you
[14:14] <wolfwalker_prime> Well in 9.04 it popped up every five minutes or so.  9.10 it used to pop up every week, now it's popping up every day.
[14:14]  * nathan7 pops wolfwalker_prime up
[14:15] <jackbrown> sudo aptitude install acpid  uninstalling something
[14:15] <tafkaz_73> well, i have sound and it seems working. the only prob i really have is that this error occurs, when using mythtv quite often. this makes myth very very slow actually
[14:15] <erUSUL> jackbrown: the module is "uvcvideo" afaics
[14:15] <Axius> how can I make  the terminal visible? it stays open for a few secounds and then disppears. what can I do? I use fluxbox.
[14:15] <tafkaz_73> i tried to google the thing, but i found nothing
[14:15] <tiger_> is there any way to load the kde version of ubuntu when you have the normal gnome version installed
[14:16] <wolfwalker_prime> Ah well.  Thanks theadmin.
[14:16] <theadmin> tiger_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[14:16]  * wolfwalker_prime grabs a 50 pound sledghammer, pops nathan7 down, tips his hat to the room in general and saunters out the door.
[14:16] <PianoPete> wolfwalker_prime: have you got some PPAs in your apt sources file for something like chromium or firefox 3.6 ?
[14:16] <tiger_> thats easy
[14:16] <phong_> hi guys, sorry quick question how to  unzip the  .bz2
[14:16] <phong_> in command
[14:17] <tiger_> thanks theadmin
[14:17] <jackbrown> erUSUL: Wait A minute my camera now isn't working cos i have been suspended, and i installed a r5u87x driver module, it's better me to reboo then run lsmod when camera is working ?
[14:17] <phong_> tar -vxjf  ?
[14:17] <erUSUL> jackbrown: yes
[14:17] <jackbrown> i'll back in 1 minute wait please
[14:17] <PianoPete> phong_: bunzip2
[14:17] <jackbrown> tnx for helping
[14:17] <nasso_> PianoPete, i dont understand how crypttab works, maybe you can help me there? how the hell can the system read from /etc/crypttab when / is encrypted? :)
[14:17] <erUSUL> phong_: if it is a tar.bz2 ; yes
[14:17] <erUSUL> phong_: if it is only bzip2 then use bunzip
[14:18]  * nathan7 denies Access_Denied
[14:18] <PianoPete> nasso_: that's outside my expertise :-(  I only encrypt home.
[14:18] <phong_> ok
[14:18] <gautham> umang: I finished mirroring each repo into a folder. now time to actually try the thing out...
[14:19] <umang> gautham, Yeah. Tell me if it works. (You may need to remove the other sources so that Ubuntu doesn't get stuck on them)
[14:19] <watoo><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:19] <erUSUL> watoo: /j #ubuntu-fr-meeting
[14:19] <umang> gautham, But it should skip them if it can't connect, so I doubt that's a problem.
[14:19] <jackbrown> erUSUL camera is still not working!!

[14:20] <SolarisBoy> heh
[14:20] <jackbrown> erUSUL: could u take a look here?
[14:20] <erUSUL> jackbrown: sun's is not free but it is more complete
[14:20] <theadmin> johntramp: Oracle one works better, but is closed-source (I think), while openjdk is opensource

[14:25] <phong_> any help please?
[14:25] <erUSUL> jackbrown: are you in the video group ? run « id » on a terminal

[14:25] <umang> gautham, edit appropriately

[14:25] <theadmin> phong_: You need to install 32-bit libraries or use a 32-bit system. No idea how to do first one.
[14:25] <umang> gautham, Oops.
[14:25] <theadmin> phong_: Better idea is to use their PPA
[14:25] <erUSUL> phong_: wine's ppa works extremely well
[14:25] <erUSUL> !ppa | phong_
[14:25] <theadmin> phong_: Even better one is a dual boot :D
[14:25] <phong_> erUSUL,  but the ppa is not the latest one
[14:25] <umang> gautham, you need to go to Other software and add these from there. (forgot to say that first) :P
[14:25] <erUSUL> jackbrown: just that????????!!!!!
[14:25] <jackbrown> yes
[14:26] <jackbrown> id was that
[14:26] <jackbrown> i ran id on a terminal
[14:26] <erUSUL> phong_: yes it is; today i got 1.1.39
[14:26] <jackbrown> i ge just that string
[14:26] <phong_> sure?
[14:26] <erUSUL> jackbrown: you are not in admin nor in plugdev not in audio?
[14:26] <erUSUL> phong_: you have to install wine1.2
[14:26] <LaLeche> g'day

[14:26] <phong_> oh
[14:26] <erUSUL> !info wine1.2
[14:26] <LaLeche> how do I get apt to install KDE 4.4 ?
[14:26] <phong_> erUSUL, oh, so install the 1.2 then do upgrade?
[14:27] <theadmin> phong_: Well, I run Windows 7 alongside Ubuntu, so I don't really use WINE anymore, but last I used, package was called "wine1.2"
[14:27] <LaLeche> current kubuntu-desktop provides only 4.2
[14:27] <erUSUL> phong_: and add their ppa
[14:27] <jackbrown> id a root  "uid=0(root) gid=0(root) gruppi=0(root)"
[14:27] <theadmin> LaLeche: Huh? If I recall correctly, Karmic had 4.3

[14:28] <mobileuser> any way to make a bluetooth internet work?
[14:28] <erUSUL> jackbrown: yours should be similar if your user has admin rights and is the first user of the system
[14:28] <gautham> umang: trying
[14:28] <JC_Denton_> I had an email of my ISP saying my machine was sending spam. How do I scan my machine for installed malware?
[14:28] <umang> gautham, OK. :)
[14:28] <Vampire0> determi?
[14:28] <jackbrown> erUSUL what should i do? Changing user rights ?
[14:29] <theadmin> JC_Denton_: LOL. Ubuntu can't have malware... check your Windows if you have one.
[14:29] <erUSUL> phong_: do not even microsoft is 100% compatible with all windows programs
[14:29] <LaLeche> i have 9.10
[14:29] <gautham> umang: errr wait a sec, the main universe and multiverse should be in same line ?
[14:29] <erUSUL> jackbrown: can you use sudo ? if you are not in admin you shouldn't be able to
[14:29] <jackbrown> ok
[14:29] <jackbrown> via sudo
[14:29] <Vampire0> theadmin: What do you mean by "determi"?
[14:30] <theadmin> Vampire0: Last word in your message was "determi", no idea what YOU meant by it
[14:30] <umang> gautham, I'm not 100% sure. See if it works. If not, add as separate lines...
[14:30] <erUSUL> theadmin: but it is posible to set up postfix as open relay and become a spam sender
[14:30] <umang> :P
[14:30] <LaLeche> theadmin, do I need to add another PPA?
[14:30] <theadmin> LaLeche: Not sure if KDE devs have one
[14:30] <mobileuser> any way to make a bluetooth internet work in ubuntu?
[14:30] <Vampire0> After selecting the .img file it tells me that it isn't able to determine the format. :-(
[14:30] <erUSUL> JC_Denton_: check if you are running a mail server missconfigured
[14:30] <Vampire0> @ theadmin
[14:30] <jackbrown> done
[14:30] <theadmin> Vampire0: Strange, but it means that it damaged the file and you have to get it again.

[14:31] <Out`Of`Control> how do i enable it?
[14:31] <theadmin> Axius: Remove gdm from /etc/init.d, I think

[14:31] <erUSUL> phong_: yes you can; but as i said is wine1.2
[14:31] <mamous> any idea any one ?
[14:31] <Vampire0> The file is fine theadmin. I reunpacked it from the archive and I can play it with vlc and I can mount it fine
[14:32] <umang> !enter | jackbrown
[14:32] <phong_> erUSUL, why is it called wine? isn't it something u can drink?
[14:32] <theadmin> phong_: WINE Is Not an Emulator

[14:32] <phong_> theadmin, wine is an acoholic drink
[14:32] <JC_Denton_> erUSUL: how would I know? Should there be evolution processes running?
[14:33] <erUSUL> phong_: i do not choose the names; why is called windows? it is not something you can open in a house's wall ?
[14:33] <theadmin> phong_: The acronym "WINE" means "WINE Is No Emulator"
[14:33] <Out`Of`Control> How do i enable 3d desktop?
[14:33] <iceroot> jackbrown: depending on the applications you are installing

[14:34] <stylist> i fixed my ubuntu - uninstalled compiz
[14:34] <theadmin> Vampire0: Actually, no... did you try, say, K3B?
[14:34] <Vampire0> What is K3B?
[14:34] <theadmin> Vampire0: KDE disc burner
[14:35] <Vampire0> ah, ok, no
[14:35] <Out`Of`Control> i get same error as here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4695604&postcount=130
[14:35] <Vampire0> I'm very confused that it worked once but won't anymore now
[14:35] <phong_> erUSUL, how to update wine now
[14:35] <theadmin> Vampire0: You see, Brasero is one of not many buggy applications of Ubuntu
[14:35] <raven> who knows something about HPC and OPENMOSIX? please pn me...
[14:35] <gautham> umang: wow synaptic crashed
[14:35] <erUSUL> phong_: you added wine's ppa?
[14:35] <Vampire0> Ah, is it? :-(
[14:35] <phong_> erUSUL, yes
[14:36] <theadmin> phong_: After adding the PPA, remove "wine" package and install "wine1.2"
[14:36] <umang> gautham, Ouch. Was that during the refreshing of the repos?
[14:36] <phong_> ok
[14:36] <Vampire0> I wonder that it got the default then. Not what I'm used to from Ubuntu. *g*
[14:36] <iceroot> Out`Of`Control: i guess you want compiz
[14:36] <erUSUL> phong_: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install wine1.2
[14:36] <gautham> umang: malformed line in source list
[14:36] <gautham> umang: yup
[14:36] <umang> gautham, Then try splitting it into the one line for each main/universe/etc
[14:36] <Out`Of`Control> iceroot i would like to run 3d desktop

[14:37] <theadmin> phong_: Oh wait. First do sudo apt-get update, then what I said
[14:37] <iceroot> !compiz | Out`Of`Control
[14:37] <phong_> ok
[14:37] <Out`Of`Control> thanks i check it :)
[14:37] <phong_> erUSUL, why is it wine1.2 when there is only 1.1.39
[14:37] <phong_> haha
[14:37] <theadmin> Meh, compiz... a hungry, hungry beast... Sorry for offtopic just now
[14:37] <jackbrown> erUSUL: which is the command to watch which modules are running?
[14:38] <iceroot> jackbrown: lsmod
[14:38] <erUSUL> jackbrown: do « gksudo gedit /etc/default/acpid » and add the modulename to the MODULES variable. it shoudl end up MODULES="module_name"
[14:38] <jackbrown> rUSUL: i rebooted and now camera is working, what should i check to make if works after suspend too ?

[14:39] <mobileuser> wine sucks doesnt work as expected
[14:39] <kidd_> anyone got a rtl8185l wifi card working?
[14:39] <linxeh> mobileuser: wine is an incredible feat
[14:39] <jackbrown> erUSUL: i heard that this module has a problem with uvcvideo  ? do i have to uninstall it too?
[14:40] <phong_> mobileuser, that is why i prefer beer
[14:40] <iceroot> mobileuser: write something better
[14:40] <erUSUL> jackbrown: do ot think so
[14:40] <erUSUL> jackbrown: do not think so
[14:40] <jackbrown> erUSUL: ok
[14:40] <jackbrown> erUSUL acpid is an empty file what should i add?
[14:41] <gautham> umang: I dont think thats the problem
[14:42] <gautham> because its the exact way the official repos are designed
[14:42] <erUSUL> jackbrown: that can not be ... do oyu have acpid and apci-support installed ?
[14:42] <gautham> umang: the apt line for the other repos in sources.list have similar syntax
[14:43] <umang> gautham, Could you put your sources.list on pastebin?
[14:43] <gautham> umang: errr will be a bit hard since its on a laptop without net
[14:43] <gautham> which line do you want ?
[14:43] <umang> gautham, Forgot. :P
[14:43] <jackbrown> erUSUL i installed as you say but it seems that he removed package, do i have to check and install it from packages manager?
[14:43] <umang> OK. Show me the line with a local repository
[14:44] <erUSUL> jackbrown: yes
[14:44] <gautham> umang: wait a sec
[14:44] <jackbrown> erUSUL: doing that thanks
[14:45] <LaLeche> any way to save alsa mixer settings?
[14:45] <jackbrown> erUSUL: they are both installed  green square
[14:45] <LaLeche> also the gnome volume mic controller doesn't control the right input
[14:45] <finneysan> can anyone help with Samba network drive mounting?
[14:45] <LaLeche> it says microphone, but I get a lot of hissing to matter if it's turned all the way down
[14:45] <LaLeche> using `alsamixer` actually lets me control the right inputs
[14:45] <LaLeche> but doesn't save
[14:46] <jackbrown> erUSUL: i'm scanning the harddrive maybe is in adifferent path acpid
[14:46] <dominator> yyu
[14:46] <stefaan> Problem: the files of our dia scanner produce 256MB raw data for each dia. So it's clear that this needs a large backup. Is a raid solution acceptable knowing that large disk (1,5TB) arrays intend to fail faster and that this backup system runs only max 20 hours a year ( data is read and written 3x a year to this backup server.) Is radi under such conditions a good choise is teh far more expensive tape backup a better choise?
[14:47] <erUSUL> jackbrown: dpkg -L acpid ---> shows /etc/default/acpid as belonging to that package
[14:47] <gautham> umang: found the error myself. was a lone double quote which caused the problems
[14:47] <erUSUL> jackbrown: make sure you did not mad a typo
[14:47] <gautham> typo
[14:47] <gautham> :(
[14:47] <gautham> umang: now how do I disable the official repos ?

[14:52] <phong_> sux shlt
[14:52] <phong_> erUSUL, why?
[14:52] <tsimpson> mdg: use a file manager I guess
[14:52] <umang> gautham, Oh. Just a second.
[14:53] <theadmin> Okay, repeating time.
[14:53] <theadmin> Can I embed HTML pages to GNOME desktop like in... ugh... Window$?

[14:53] <theadmin> ikonia: Nah, i have something like this here...
[14:53] <z0man> Does anyone know if anyone has made like a CD that contains all the main popular packages and dependant files, such as VLC and the plugins required.?
[14:53] <erUSUL> phong_: run winecfg from a terminal
[14:53] <ikonia> theadmin: then why are you asking ?
[14:53] <tsimpson> mdg: once you find the directory, you type "cd /directory/name" (replacing /directory/name), then continue with the commands
[14:53] <jackbrown> erUSUL: camera is dead  no suggestion
[14:54] <jackbrown> erUSUL: thanks anyway
[14:54] <erUSUL> z0man: probably if they do it would ilegal to distribute it
[14:54] <adalal> z0man: you could make that, it isn't that hard :P
[14:54] <theadmin> ikonia: I am currently on windows. It doesn't just display images for me... or do you mean Ubuntu?
[14:54] <erUSUL> z0man: that's why they are not included in the first place

[14:54] <umang> gautham, Oh. Just a second.

[14:54] <Will123456> hey guys. i've installed ubuntu on a PC next to the TV meant primarily for watching videos on the internet, and it's running off a fully fledged install off ubuntu on a USB stick. however performance can sometimes be sluggish - is there any way to increase the amount off RAM used to cache data from the drive?
[14:55] <tsimpson> mdg: I guess you should install libfaad-dev
[14:55] <z0man> I have been helping a friend get Ubuntu, yet they have no Internet access and know how huge some of the package dependencies are required
[14:55] <ikonia> Will123456: the kernel will use pretty much any not in use ram for cache
[14:55] <ikonia> !aptoncd
[14:55] <stefaan> Will123456: face it, the bottleneck in performace is the USB bus
[14:55] <adalal> Will123456: tried using swap?
[14:55] <dizzycat> adalal: go to shoutcast.com search any radio station download it and then right click and select copy link, go to rhythmbox> add new radio station and paste the link there

[14:56] <Will123456> ikonia: is that reported in the system monitor? i never see more than 300 megs usage out of 2 gigs)
[14:56] <umang> gautham, Oh. Yes you do. :P I didn't read the instructions properly.
[14:56] <z0man> Thanks for your thoughts
[14:56] <ikonia> Will123456: no, that's not shown normally
[14:56] <ikonia> Will123456: do a "free"
[14:56] <gautham> umang: I am gonna try writing a shell script now
[14:56] <umang> gautham, Although it shouldn't be too hard to write a shell script to do it.
[14:56] <adalal> dizzycat: i do realise that i can do that, but I have a long list of streams that I want to add, so, I'd just like to know where the list is actually stored, so that I can just as easily create a script to import the lines from a server
[14:56] <umang> gautham, Oh. But that'll have to be for Windows, no?
[14:56] <Will123456> stefaan: definitely, yeah. it's especially annoying when accessing different menus (i'm using the netbook remix) - if there was any way to force it to read those menu items at start up and remember them, it'd be great

[14:57] <theadmin> heroin: Well, you need to log in first of course :D Sorry, we're not youtube support
[14:57] <gautham> umang: right now I will make something for myself. the next time I get a few hours free time, maybe I can actually write a python app which does the job for any computer
[14:57] <dizzycat> adalal: i'm sorry i don't know where they are stored.
[14:57] <Will123456> ikonia: sorry, by "full install" i meant "not a live disc/usb" - sorry about that
[14:57] <ikonia> heroin: youtube has it's support contacts
[14:57] <tsimpson> mdg: you need to use "sudo make install", rather than "make install"
[14:57] <ikonia> Will123456: not a problem
[14:57] <bazhang> porkpie, it wants to open in movieplayer
[14:57] <umang> gautham, Yeah. That should be a good idea.
[14:58] <mdg> tsimpson: /msg smacks forehead DOH!
[14:58] <heroin> theadmin: well i think it has to do android, i can upload to picasa fine for images
[14:58] <stefaan> Will123456:  strill, the extenal harddisk is still slower due to USB limitations and sure when there are other USB devices connected
[14:58] <mdg> tsimpson: thanks!
[14:58] <tsimpson> :)
[14:58] <porkpie> bazhang: does it play back in movie player?
[14:58] <phong_> wine client error:0: version mismatch 0/395.
[14:58] <phong_> Your wineserver binary was not upgraded correctly,
[14:58] <phong_> or you have an older one somewhere in your PATH.
[14:58] <phong_> Or maybe the wrong wineserver is still running?
[14:58] <FloodBot2> phong_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:58] <theadmin> heroin: :/ You can use your Google account to log in, so if you upload Picasa fine, you will be able to use same credentials for Youtube
[14:58] <phong_> oops
[14:58] <heroin> ikonia: theadmin but android sends the video with a differnt login then my google one, instead of<EMAIL_ADDRESS>it tries<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:58] <Will123456> ikonia: the netbook remix is pretty much the same thing as the full version anyway, to be honest :P
[14:58] <ikonia> heroin: we don't support android here
[14:58] <ikonia> heroin: this is ubuntu support
[14:59] <adalal> Will123456: running of a USB drive will always be slower, the only other thing i can think of is increasing the RAM space, reducing the load by turning off services not required, and maybe create a ramdisk to temporarily store files you want to use immediately
[14:59] <heroin> theadmin: thats what i though aswell but apparently not
[14:59] <umang> gautham, Does this help? : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/AptOff
[14:59] <ikonia> Will123456: couple of kernel tweaks
[14:59] <adalal> dizzycat: thanks
[14:59] <heroin> what is this ubuntu channel!?
[14:59] <heroin> ooh my bad wrong channel :D
[14:59] <theadmin> heroin: Uh, yes.
[14:59] <bazhang> porkpie, yes
[14:59] <heroin> sorry forgot irc.ubuntu.com auto logs in to this channel :D
[14:59] <heroin> ttyl
[14:59] <mdg> tsimpson: awesome!  Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!
[14:59] <porkpie> bazhang: what the quality like
[15:00] <Will123456> ikonia: i'm did a free and it looks like there's about 800 megs of RAM *really* being used, so i guess that's not bad
[15:00] <phong_> erUSUL, check this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/380401/
[15:00] <theadmin> ikonia: Anyway, what I want is something like this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2012912/Screenshot.png - anyway possible, even remotely?
[15:00] <ikonia> Will123456: that's more like it
[15:00] <Will123456> adalal: yeah, i've got /tmp on RAM and put the firefox cache on it , as well as setting noatime and nodiratime
[15:00] <ismael_> hola
[15:00] <ikonia> theadmin: you can use desktop screenlets to get that sort of effect, not html though
[15:00] <erUSUL> phong_: do you purged wine before installing wine1.2 ?
[15:01] <phong_> no
[15:01] <phong_> i have not a clue who to do it
[15:01] <theadmin> ikonia: Hm... Well, I want it to display both real time and the normal one, I don't think screenlets do that
[15:01] <phong_> should i do sudo apt-get remove wine
[15:01] <Will123456> adalal: annoyingly firefox seems to be particularly slow when storing bookmarks and so on-  i suppose that's SQL lite not playing well with something that isn't heavily cached (like an hdd?)?
[15:01] <ikonia> theadmin: then you can't do what you want
[15:01] <damjanzg> is it problem if lsmod | grep nvidia returns two output?
[15:01] <Vampire0> Thanks theadmin with k3b burning went like a charm. Just the DVD Player won't play it now. On the computer it works fine. *grml*
[15:02] <theadmin> ikonia: Well, frack it then :D Gotta get used to the fact that Ubuntu is weaker then windows in SOME places... stronger in most though
[15:02] <rumen> hello i need some help for uBUNTO
[15:02] <bazhang> Vampire0, you want to make files playable via a dvd player? you may wish to try something like devede then
[15:02] <umang> gautham, If the previous link doesn't help and you write one, then you should definitely publish it. It would help lots of people. :)
[15:02] <rumen> who can help me ?
[15:03] <Will123456> thanks for your help adalal, stefaan, ikonia - you've been a great help :)
[15:03] <erUSUL> !ask | rumen
[15:03] <rumen> well ok :) thank you My first question is my Ubunto does not want to reboot the comuter
[15:04] <theadmin> Vampire0: No prob, always GLaD to help
[15:04] <rumen> how can solve the problem ?
[15:04] <ikonia> rumen: what do you mean does not want to reboot it, can you explain what you are doing ?
[15:04] <theadmin> rumen: ... Eh, it is Ubuntu, not "Ubunto". Anyway, what do you mean, does not reboto?
[15:05] <rumen> when i press at upper right corner : user and after that i press Restart ... the computers turns on black screen and it's all ...
[15:05] <theadmin> rumen: s/reboto/reboot
[15:05] <Vampire0> bazhang: It is an .img of a DVD, so it should work, shouldn't it? Maybe I burnt too fast, it is an old DVD player
[15:06] <theadmin> rumen: Sounds like something is wrong. Do you see anything like "The system is going down for reboot NOW" or "* Will now reboot..."
[15:06] <strawdonkey> Hello everyone. I was looking for a little advice on installing Ubuntu on an IDE Flash Module, and sizings and such
[15:06] <bazhang> Vampire0, burned as data via k3b? no.
[15:06] <rumen> theadmin: no there is no such msg
[15:06] <nasso_> strawdonkey, partitionsizing?
[15:06] <sewey> Question.. I installed the Ubuntu Net-book Remix on a HP Mini 1101 and neither the wireless or wired network drivers would work.
[15:06] <theadmin> rumen: Something does not get killed properly then. Can you reboot directly with "sudo init 6"?
[15:07] <Vampire0> bazhang: Burned as image via k3b. As I said in the computer the burned disc works like a normal Video DVD
[15:07] <rumen> maybe i must explain the whole situation ... i just installed ubunto on ASUS F5N without any drivers or anything other
[15:07] <maximilian> Hi, does anyone know why games like Neverball dont use my Graphicchip? [nVidia Corporation NV34M [GeForce FX Go5200 32M/64M] @ Intel Corporation 82855PM Processor to I/O Controller]
[15:07] <strawdonkey> nasso_: Well, I want to install Ubuntu on an IDE Flash module, but I need to buy one that is an appropriate size. I will be booting from the IDE Flash Module and storing data on a HDD.
[15:07] <adalal> rumen: does it shutdown cleanly when you try?
[15:07] <erUSUL> !nvidia | maximilian
[15:08] <theadmin> rumen: Drivers have nothing to do with it. And it's ubuntu, not ubunto.
[15:08] <umang> gautham, Did that last link help>
[15:08] <maximilian> glxgears is working...
[15:08] <strawdonkey> nasso_: The thing I'm wondering is, I want to buy the smallest one possible, as they're expensive! If I could install it on a 1GB one that'd be great, but I can't find any info on what is a suitable size for installation
[15:08] <maximilian> Desktop effects too
[15:08] <rumen> ok sorry i'll type Ubuntu
[15:08] <rumen> well what can i do ? to have clear restart
[15:09] <adalal> rumen: does your computer shut down cleanly?
[15:09] <rumen> no
[15:09] <nasso_> strawdonkey, system requirements is 4b
[15:09] <sawek> hello
[15:09] <gautham> umang: I just phoned up a python programmer friend of mine and he is helping me with the script
[15:09] <theadmin> rumen: Ah, so shutting down doesn't work too. We're getting somewhere. Could it be that init is not accepting runlevel changes?
[15:09] <nasso_> strawdonkey, i just did a clean install in a vm of ubuntu 9.10. will check its size
[15:09] <umang> gautham, :)
[15:09] <strawdonkey> nasso_: Thank you
[15:10] <adalal> rumen: whats your graphic card?
[15:10] <rumen> nvidia 7000M
[15:10] <theadmin> rumen: If so, it's a bad install... adalal: What does it have to do with graphic chipsets?
[15:10] <linuxman410> i have a friend who is still running 7.10 is that safe
[15:11] <rumen> i installed something like drivers :) for video card
[15:11] <paula> ola
[15:11] <theadmin> linuxman410: Safe, yeah, but not really a good idea to run old stuff
[15:11] <rumen> because i'm trying to ... set smaller size of all things
[15:11] <rumen> can i do it ?
[15:11] <nasso_> linucks, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases
[15:11] <blakkheim> linuxman410: no, 7.10 doesn't get security updates anymore, it's not safe
[15:11] <theadmin> rumen: You can change screen resolution by going to System -> Preferences -> Display
[15:11] <adalal> theadmin: i used to have trouble having clean shutdown, which I corrected by purging the ati driver (proprietory) and reinstalling it, and reconfiguring my x server
[15:11] <nasso_> linucks, you can see how long each release is supported there
[15:11] <theadmin> adalal: Strange
[15:12] <adalal> theadmin: from what i remember, plus the driver also caused conflicts with my touchscreen driver..
[15:12] <rumen> theadmin: yes i changed it from there but its 1280 x 900 :(
[15:12] <theadmin> ...the more I know about Linux the more cool it feels. And more confusing.
[15:12] <theadmin> rumen: Could you get any higher on Windows? If no, can't help
[15:12] <nasso_> linuxman410, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases it was meant for you
[15:12] <nasso_> linuxman410, check how long each release is supported
[15:12] <rumen> yes on windows have higher
[15:12] <rumen> 1440 x 900
[15:13] <rumen> and i can not set it here
[15:13] <linuxman410> thanks for help guys
[15:13] <Pip> Hello, how to get the deb package of firefox ?
[15:14] <rumen> theadmin: the resolution is not bigger problem. The problem is with shutdown and restart
[15:14] <citypop> pip goto Mozilla.org
[15:14] <nasso_> strawdonkey, / uses 2,6gb and /boot uses 64
[15:15] <Pip> citypop, is there ?
[15:15] <_MaaX_> hi...
[15:15] <_MaaX_> I'm maximilian ^^
[15:15] <strawdonkey> @nasso_: Would there be a way to cut that down to, say, 2GB?
[15:15] <_MaaX_> What was with my question?
[15:15] <nasso_> strawdonkey, no
[15:15] <_MaaX_> Smuxi is shit XD
[15:15] <_MaaX_> XCHat ftw!
[15:15] <nasso_> strawdonkey, you would have to create an custom install using the server-installation cd
[15:16] <autoclesis> !smuxi
[15:16] <nasso_> strawdonkey, or maybe xubuntu?
[15:16] <strawdonkey> nasso_: I tried Xubuntu, it seemed unreliable; I think it has something to do with VIA chipsets, or maybe I installed it wrong ;)
[15:16] <nasso_> strawdonkey, the installcd creates an 2,6 gb installation. nothing you can do about that without doing a custom installation
[15:16] <strawdonkey> nasso_: Either way, after a weekend of messing around, I installed plain Ubuntu and everything worked great, so I don't really fancy the Xubuntu experience again just yet.
[15:17] <strawdonkey> nasso_: Is there a guide or at least a starter on the web for how to do a custom installation?
[15:17] <Pip> citypop, did you see deb package on firefox official web site ?
[15:17] <mrproper> rg
[15:18] <citypop> pip yes their is a tarball there
[15:18] <phong_> erUSUL, it's working...i have to remove and reboot then install

[15:22] <koskov> phong_,  sure, but i want to extract the file for index.
[15:23] <koskov> and won't do 900 operations for that, just run a command like unpack all rar files in this catalog (weither there is 1 og 900 files and/or catalog's in it)

It also saves any kind of output into files. - It might be useful when it takes a long time compiling a program or such. Anyone?

[15:44] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: you need to fsck the disk then
[15:44] <pokui> nm. looks like bluetooth-properties wants to be run as root.
[15:44] <pokui> sick.
[15:44] <sixzerofour|jps> how do i do that SolarisBoy ?
[15:44] <sixzerofour|jps> i got ubutnu yesterday
[15:44] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: let the fsck operation complete next time be patient
[15:45] <sixzerofour|jps> why is it saying like -9388976986% complete?
[15:45] <xfact> isaquealves, Nothing spacial, I just opened Amarok today and it showed this message!
[15:45] <nyaa> is there an easy way to swap out to a low latency kernel without basically reinstalling?
[15:45] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: thats odd output regardless of whatever,, it sounds that you need to correct FS errors
[15:45] <sixzerofour|jps> fs?
[15:46] <nyaa> file system
[15:46] <SolarisBoy> File System
[15:46] <sixzerofour|jps> how dfo i do all that?
[15:46] <xfact> I have to much program in my PC, I think I should uninstall some useless programs, may be those are conflicting with each other!
[15:46] <_Narc_> Sorry to ask again folks. Any idea why my 16 GB USB key takes forever to mount (or doesn't mount at all) on my first Ubuntu box and mounts instantly on Win and my other Karmic box ? Thanks a lot.
[15:46] <sixzerofour|jps> kde started..now lets see if it loads properly this time
[15:46] <hakaishi> xfact: I don't really believe that.
[15:46] <isaquealves> xfact: so, I think that, if it was working before, probably, your amarok config was damaged...
[15:46] <SolarisBoy> it was happening,, you stopped it,, when you get dropped back to that terminal,, is the reason kde wont load most likely
[15:46] <nyaa> _Narc_ have you tried other things in the same drive you are mounting it in that goes slow?
[15:47] <xfact> hakaishi, I am newand do not understand technical matters, so this is my thinking...
[15:47] <sixzerofour|jps> yeah the kde laoding thing is stuck on the HD icon apparently
[15:47] <Lasthope106> I tried setting up Ubuntu 9.10 to work for dual monitors.  I logged out, and now its telling me it couldn't find the right graphics configuration and it asks me if I want to run in low graphics mode.  Can anyone help me getting back to the original settings?
[15:47] <hakaishi> xfact: If isaquealves is right, then a reinstallation might really do the trick.
[15:47] <isaquealves> you dont need to uninstall, just rm the old user conf
[15:48] <sixzerofour|jps> any ideas SolarisBoy?
[15:48] <gregg> hi all - new kubuntu install here, but I think my question isn't kubuntu specific - I connect to the net via wireless... would like to mount a samba share, just want to know the easiest/best way to do it...? The network interface in dolphin is nice but I'd like to run a few of my folders as if they were local (my music collection, for example...)
[15:48] <SolarisBoy> isaquealves: is correct
[15:48] <_Narc_> nyaa: Sorry I don't get what you mean :)
[15:48] <hakaishi> isaquealves: xfact already uninstalled it...
[15:48] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: i just informed you
[15:48] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: fsck the disk
[15:48] <SolarisBoy> !fsck
[15:48] <xfact> isaquealves, yup, but I am very basic user and this is my personal PC (nobody else uses that) so it is very strange that it damaged itself!
[15:48] <nyaa> _Narc_ perhaps the problem is the port, have you tested it with other drives to see if it goes faster or is still slow?
[15:48] <nastas> hi all
[15:49] <isaquealves> and if it matters, i could suggest you to use exaile or rhythmbox (the default player...)
[15:49] <sixzerofour|jps> how can i get to a terminal?
[15:49] <sixzerofour|jps> i know there is an alt+f command for it
[15:49] <_Narc_> nyaa: Oh, ya, I tested it with 4 four different USB ports and my other 8 GB key works like a charm.
[15:49] <xfact> hakaishi, I do not have plan to reinstall it again, rhythambox is enough for groove, well thanks for showing interest :)
[15:49] <isaquealves> CTRL + ALT + F1
[15:49] <munky> can anyone help me with my firefox and ubunto
[15:50] <nastas> sixzerofour|jps: alt+f2 ?
[15:50] <xfact> Thanks to you too, isaquealves  :)
[15:50] <LateralForce> I have a question about GNOME power manager. It says in help that action is only taken when CPU is idle. Whats the default threshold for idle and where do i change it? (I've checked gconf-editor and i didn't find anything)
[15:50] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: had you not stated that after you cancel the fix that runs automagically,, you get dropped to a shell?
[15:51] <xfact> Installing KDE apps in gnome can cause problems?
[15:51] <SolarisBoy> LateralForce: no afaik
[15:51] <_Narc_> nyaa: The strange thing is that it mounts perfectly on my older box but very slowly or not at all on my first Ubuntu system... And both use Karmic.
[15:51] <SolarisBoy> xfact: not really can be buggy but just install kde libs
[15:51] <gregg> hi all - would like to mount a samba share in kubuntu, just want to know the easiest/best way to do it...? The network interface in dolphin is nice but I'd like to run a few of my folders as if they were local (my music collection, for example...)
[15:51] <SolarisBoy> amarok works fine for me,, and if and when it doesn't i blow away the profile
[15:51] <sixzerofour|jps> ok i did the force shotdfown and scan SolarisBoy
[15:51] <nyaa> _Narc_ the problem may then be a driver issue, but I am not sure what sort of drivers ubuntu uses to deal with usb, or really how to change them properly
[15:51] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: cool beans
[15:51] <sixzerofour|jps> lets see what happens SolarisBoy
[15:51] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: get some coffee
[15:52] <Alan502> Hi :) I'm using kubuntu, how do i update firefox 3.5 to 3.6?
[15:52] <jgcp> ISSUE: 32 gb ipod touch is not recognized by banshe, gtkpod, etc. when i plug it in, it comes up as a digital camera. I have searched online and tried a few things. I just want to be able to syng new music I have recently acquired! Please help!
[15:52] <isaquealves> xfact: you will need to install kde libs and and other kde packages
[15:52] <LateralForce> SolarisBoy: Ok, the reason im asking is im trying disable suspending when im listening to music f.e. Do you have any advice?
[15:52] <xfact> I think now I should also install dbg files with every apps from now...
[15:53] <munky> any seen a firefox update turn the firefox program in to a empty shell
[15:53] <_Narc_> nyaa: Yes, that's what I thought but I'm a bit clueless too :) Thanks anyway
[15:54] <SolarisBoy> LateralForce: afaik you can enable or disable suspending
[15:54] <Tayl> Hmm. Just done an update, computer crashed half way through and now I'm having endless problems.
[15:54] <Tayl> Trying to log onto the forum to post the details but Firefox updated and is now being pathetic with cookie handling.
[15:54] <trism> Alan502: several methods listed here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion
[15:54] <jgcp> Anyone?
[15:54] <SolarisBoy> the idle option is saying that when the CPU is doing something it shouldn't suspend
[15:54] <SolarisBoy> so im not sure the answer for that
[15:55] <Alan502> trism, thanks thanks
[15:55]  * xfact Wishes if he could be 'expert' like others then he could also handle everything 'smartly' himself :(
[15:55] <SolarisBoy> xfact: awwwww
[15:55] <munky> i have issues with firefox not loading, only empty shells ****help please***
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> SolarisBoy it seems to be loading normally
[15:56] <SolarisBoy> sweet
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> it didn't
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> lol
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> the kde bar is not there
[15:56] <xfact> :(
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> at the bottom
[15:56] <zack_22> how do u register nick...this is my first time on an irc channel

[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> jsut a curcor
[15:56] <sixzerofour|jps> cursor
[15:57] <SolarisBoy> ummm
[15:57] <SolarisBoy> ok man fsck
[15:57] <zack_22> hey....how do u register nick...this is my first time on an irc channel?
[15:57] <sixzerofour|jps> firefox and amsn were opened, i clsoed them
[15:57] <nyaa> _Narc_ are you using 64 bit?
[15:57] <sixzerofour|jps> i did fsck
[15:57] <trism> !register | zack_22
[15:57] <sixzerofour|jps> twice
[15:57] <tut__> hi can't fix grub2 on linux install
[15:57] <zack_22> thanks trism
[15:57] <_Narc_> nyaa: No
[15:57] <nastas> sixzerofour|jps: what exactly you want to do?
[15:57] <sixzerofour|jps> kde isn't loading properly
[15:57] <sixzerofour|jps> kubuntu is not active channel
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: so,,,when this occured initially what happend?
[15:58] <sixzerofour|jps> laptop lost pwoer
[15:58] <tut__> when chroot I got: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /."
[15:58] <sixzerofour|jps> when i rebooted kde didn't load
[15:58] <sixzerofour|jps> properly
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> so it went hard down
[15:58] <nyaa> _Narc_ this solution may help, people on a forum said it wasn't specific to 64 bit even though it was shown first there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/177235
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> ok so fsck the disk
[15:58] <sixzerofour|jps> i thought i just did
[15:58] <tut__> any idea?
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> i think you may not have done so correctly
[15:58] <tut__> when chroot I got: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /."
[15:58] <_Narc_> nyaa: I read about the module ehci_hcd being responsible for USB key problems but modprobe say "not found"
[15:59] <_Narc_> nyaa: Oh, thanks
[15:59] <sixzerofour|jps> what is tghe correct?
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: are you able to type and are you able to take the root user?
[15:59] <sixzerofour|jps> i'm at terminal
[15:59] <tut__> any grub2 guru?
[15:59] <shenmue> ку =)
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> ok
[15:59] <Pekka_> Can someone help me with trust tablet? I don't know how to get it working
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> type dmesg |egrep -i 'scsi|ide|error'
[16:00] <tut__> any grub2 guru?
[16:00] <tut__> when chroot I got: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /."
[16:00] <sixzerofour|jps> ok
[16:00] <sixzerofour|jps> then waht?
[16:00] <LateralForce> SolarisBoy: Well, is there any quick way of disabling suspend? Maybe i could make a script.. But would suspend be enabled on reboot or do i need to make another script to enable it during boot?
[16:00] <SolarisBoy> in general i want you to look for disk errors in logs,, as i believe thats the issue,, as you stated a fsck operation started but you stopped it,,
[16:00] <SolarisBoy> LateralForce: ofcourse
[16:01] <sixzerofour|jps> what do errors look like?..lol
[16:01] <SolarisBoy> LateralForce: disable from power options,, it can be done in script not sure how though..
[16:01] <_Narc_> nyaa: Yes, I read about rmmod the ehci_hcd module but apparently, it doesn't exist on Karmic anymore, modprobe says "not found" when I try.
[16:01] <tut__> can't modify grub from livecd
[16:01] <guntbert> !who | sixzerofour|jps
[16:01] <jgcp> ISSUE: 32 gb ipod touch is not recognized by banshe, gtkpod, etc. when i plug it in, it comes up as a digital camera. I have searched online and tried a few things. I just want to be able to syng new music I have recently acquired! Please help!
[16:01] <sixzerofour|jps> what do errors look like?..lol SolarisBoy
[16:01] <LateralForce> SolarisBoy: will it change pemanently or only for the session?
[16:02] <SolarisBoy> permanently
[16:02] <tut__> can't modify grub from livecd
[16:02] <tut__> update-grub for Grub2 doesn't work in chroot
[16:02] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: in some cases they say 'error' in others they rather verbosely explain what happend.. it should be obvious
[16:02] <tut__> any idea?
[16:03] <cousteau> is there a way to see the content of a font without installing it?
[16:03] <tut__> someone?
[16:03] <sixzerofour|jps> nothing looiks like an error
[16:03] <sixzerofour|jps> SolarisBoy
[16:03] <cousteau> (all the content, not just an example)
[16:03] <tut__> update-grub for Grub2 doesn't work in chroot

[16:04] <blablabla> hi! i installed songbird in /usr/local/bin/songbird and made a softlink with sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/songbird/songbird /usr/local/bin/Songbird. when i try to start songbird with the command Songbird. i get the error message Songbird: Cannot execute. but when i start ist with /usr/local/bin/songbird/songbird it works does anyone have an idea what i did wrong??
[16:04] <LateralForce> SolarisBoy: Is it possible to make a script thats run before suspend that checks somehow if sound is playing?
[16:04] <Lasthope106> where is the user configuration file for the graphics located?
[16:04] <tut__> any grub2 guru?
[16:04] <SolarisBoy> LateralForce: its not about the sound its about the idle value of the CPU
[16:05] <guntbert> !repeat | tut__
[16:05] <SolarisBoy> the PC depicted that its not doing anything so it will suspend
[16:05] <LateralForce> yeah i know but i want it to be disabled when playing sound, do you think that is possible somehow?
[16:05] <LateralForce> music*
[16:05] <SolarisBoy> if you want to be nasty right a for loop to make the loads higher while you listen to music =)
[16:05] <damjanzg> How to enable privilages for another user to view files from other partitions on my disk?
[16:05] <blablabla> does anyone have an idea?

[16:06] <zorn^^> hello, do someone have the problem :" version GLIBCXX_3.4.11" about libstdc++.so.6?
[16:06] <zorn^^> not found
[16:06] <damjanzg> :SolarisBoy and what parameters
[16:06] <guntbert> zorn^^: what are you trying to do?
[16:06] <SolarisBoy> depends on what you need to do
[16:07] <sixzerofour|jps> SolarisBoy should i just run the fsck again like before?
[16:07] <zorn^^> guntbert: i installed EMSO simulator, but when i launch it, i receive that message
[16:07] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: well im interested in knowing exactly the issue unfortunately i dought if you will be able to send screenshot or pastebins
[16:07] <Pekka_> Can someone help me with trust tablet? I don't know how to get it working
[16:08] <sixzerofour|jps> lol, i can try taking pics with my digital camera SolarisBoy
[16:08] <alphacharlie_> how to upgrade gtk+?my current version is 1.2.10.i want to upgrade it to 2.18.0.is there any easy way?
[16:08] <zorn^^> it seems (and i verified it) that the libstdc++.so.6 misses GLIBCXX3.4.11
[16:08] <guntbert> zorn^^: (no idea what that is) - how did you install it?
[16:08] <sixzerofour|jps> but i don't think you can take snaopshots of a pc screen
[16:08] <SolarisBoy> sounds like your in a maintenance or single user mode due to the fact the machine lost power and HDD came back in NOT OK state,, in general that means that you should fsck,, however the drive may be H/W damaged..
[16:08] <SolarisBoy> less likely
[16:08] <sixzerofour|jps> hardware damaged?
[16:09] <SolarisBoy> power loss can cause issues like that,, not often
[16:09] <sixzerofour|jps> sure, but, fsck comes up clean
[16:09] <LateralForce> SolarisBoy: Actually when using grooveshark firefox uses ~20% cpu ^^ and it still suspends.. Do you know where i can find information about the idle threshold power manager uses?
[16:09] <sixzerofour|jps> its kde thats broke
[16:09] <munky> anyone know why my firefox opens a empty terminal after i updated it, and uninstalled it and reinstalled it
[16:09] <zorn^^> guntbert: this lib is called by many programs, so i think it's kind of bug
[16:09] <SolarisBoy> ok so what was occuring when the power was lost?
[16:09] <sixzerofour|jps> i can still use firefox and amsn when it loads
[16:09] <jgcp> ISSUE: 32 gb ipod touch is not recognized by banshe, gtkpod, etc. when i plug it in, it comes up as a digital camera. I have searched online and tried a few things. I just want to be able to syng new music I have recently acquired! Please help!
[16:09] <sixzerofour|jps> i was talking in irc
[16:09] <sixzerofour|jps> SolarisBoy
[16:10] <sixzerofour|jps> it told me power is gone in 30 seconds
[16:10] <sixzerofour|jps> it will go to rammode
[16:10] <Whitor> Hi. In a dual display setup, how do I control the display my main navigation panel is on? (the panel at the top of the screen in gnome)
[16:10] <sixzerofour|jps> i plugged in the pwoer, it still went off...screen went black, 5 minutes later i just shut the pwoer off
[16:10] <Pip> Please give me a link of ubuntu repository URLS ?
[16:10] <SolarisBoy> heh
[16:10] <Pip> I want to download the firefox deb package manually
[16:10] <IdleOne> Pip: packages.ubuntu.com
[16:11] <zorn^^> guntbert: i called "strings /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 | grep GLIBCXX
[16:11] <un214> hi
[16:11] <SolarisBoy> so you actually just let the battery die,,,
[16:11] <isaquealves> sixzerofour|jps: your problem is related to X?
[16:11] <zorn^^> and i verified that the version 11 is missing
[16:11] <un214> Is there a good way to download a bunch of extra packages and their dependencies for burning to cd for offline install
[16:11] <zorn^^> i'm on ubuntu 9.94
[16:11] <zorn^^> 9.04
[16:11] <sixzerofour|jps> SolarisBoy ive never had a laptop before, i don't know the ettiqette
[16:11] <Pip> is there any difference between 9.04 package and 9.10 package of the same package ?
[16:11] <Pip> *s/package/version
[16:11] <sixzerofour|jps> is that bad? lol
[16:11] <Xcell> my cdrom quits 5 mins after boot, is there anything in here to fix that  ?  http://www.pastebin.com/m6f48832a
[16:12] <sixzerofour|jps> i wish it would warn me when the bat is at like 10%
[16:12] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: no worries,, it sounds like you had the laptop on without being plugged in until the battery power depleted....
[16:12] <SolarisBoy> sixzerofour|jps: it should and likely did
[16:12] <sixzerofour|jps> but it only toldme when there was 30 seconds left
[16:12] <SolarisBoy> hmm
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> i doubt i use 10% of the bat every 30 seconds lol
[16:13] <JoeSomebody> can someone good at samba check this? (i think it is what i used before) is it accurate before i try it ? http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-samba-server-on-ubuntu/ or is there a better / recommended one ?
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> this isn't 1989
[16:13] <SolarisBoy> thats odd my laptop keeps battery icon in my tool bar,, it tells me the status constantly and waaay before i lost battery power i would know
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> its fscking the / partition now
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> i have it in the tool bar
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> but it didn't say anything
[16:13] <guntbert> zorn^^: sorry - I was searching - but it seem EMSO is not in the repos - one possibilty: install libcwd (it seems to contain a glibcxx)
[16:13] <sixzerofour|jps> i just woke up,turned the laptop on,and started doing my stuff
[16:14] <sixzerofour|jps> guess it lost its charge over night
[16:14] <SolarisBoy> hmm i dont think your fsking / unless you boot into single user mode...
[16:14] <sixzerofour|jps> should i keep it plugged in overnight?
[16:14] <guntbert> !enter | sixzerofour|jps
[16:14] <SolarisBoy> are you sure the fsking is completing succesfully ?
[16:14] <zorn^^> guntbert: yes it's not in repo, i'll try with your suggest
[16:14] <guntbert> zorn^^: Good luck :-)
[16:14] <sixzerofour|jps> it goes
[16:14] <SolarisBoy> 5 steps and clears errors?
[16:15] <sixzerofour|jps> well kde jsut asked me for my pass
[16:15] <SolarisBoy> ok
[16:15] <sixzerofour|jps> but again, the kde tool abr isn't loading
[16:15] <sixzerofour|jps> or the desktop icons
