[07:36] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfred; sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer
[07:36] <Girly-Girl> KrayonWork: was working for me but I'm not sure if I have same build can't check now I'm on Xp
[07:36] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, ty
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> Arrnas: try unloading then reloading the module driving it
[07:37] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, tr deleting profile?
[07:38] <KrayonWork> Gentoo64: I tried that, still no luck.
[07:38] <yacc> Wondered what the correct channel is for a 10.04LTS with a backported 2.6.38 kernel?
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> Taraduffy: extract the files and you will see an install script. Run it with sudo
[07:38] <ikonia> !info linux-image lucid
[07:38] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, i had an ff update yesterday for 7.0.1 (not uubntu though) that fixed a load of bugs, its probably related to that
[07:38] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, Download done.
[07:38] <chalcedony> Flash Plugin installed.
[07:38] <chalcedony> llhull@llhull:~$
[07:39] <ikonia> yacc: I guess your in the right place, but backports.....of the kernel, you may have issues
[07:39] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: close all browsers and rerun to load the plugin. Is it better?
[07:39] <ikonia> yacc: is it from the backports repo, or an external/PPA ?
[07:40] <chalcedony> E: Unable to locate package flashplugin-nonfred
[07:40] <Gentoo64> chalcedony, typo?
[07:40] <ikonia> chalcedony: flashplugin-nonfree
[07:40] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, still ok to close?
[07:40] <chalcedony> ah
[07:40] <chalcedony> ok ill try that one
[07:40] <taraduffy> ActionParsnip: thanks! I can see an install.sh flie, can you baby me through the install, I am not sure how to do it.
[07:40] <KrayonWork> Gentoo64: Just updated, still no good.
[07:40] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: did you copy and paste the command as one?
[07:40] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, they may not have been fixed yet on ubuntu
[07:40] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, yes
[07:41] <mohammad> my shortcuts don't work no more :(
[07:41] <chalcedony> it didn't find fred though
[07:41] <Gentoo64> i tested the live builf of ff yesterday cant believe its at 10 lol
[07:41] <Guest16112> my shortcuts don't work no more :(
[07:41] <ikonia> yacc: I don't see the 2.6.38 kernel in the lucid backports repo
 How to use mplayer ?
[07:41] <Gentoo64> Atharva, just type mplayer then the path to the file
[07:41] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer
[07:42] <yacc> ikonia, lucid-proposed, and the first glaring problem is that nouveau did not come up, hence with a generic fbdev X I've got only one display mirrored on two panels, ...
[07:42] <Guest16112> after a restart i saw them don't work!!
[07:42] <Gentoo64> Atharva, is it pure cli? im not sure about how to get it to run in console framebuffer never tried it
[07:42] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, flashplugin64-installer is already the newest version.
[07:42] <Guest16112> e.g inside qt ctrl + s do not save the file
[07:42] <ikonia> yacc: I wouldn't be using things out of proposed
[07:42] <yacc> ikonia, the drm module seems to have loaded fine, and with proposed enabled, there are no updates for packages containing nouveau in it's name.
[07:43] <rww> running -proposed is not a good idea, at all, unless you like breakage. it's also not supported here.
[07:43] <ActionParsnip> taraduffy: use terminal. Use: cd   to go into a folder. When you are in the folder with the script, run: sudo scriptname
[07:43] <yacc> ikonia, okay, my ext4 fs with external SSD journal crashes the box at some random point, usually less than 12 hours from boot with the regular kernels.
[07:43] <KrayonWork> Gentoo64: I guess that could be the issue.  How long do Ubuntu usually take to do new builds?  I can't believe it's like this again.  I've seen this issue at least once before, back in v2 days IIRC :/
[07:43] <yacc> ikonia, googling around the problem "ext4 with fast discs" seems to be fixed by later kernels, ...
[07:44] <yacc> ikonia, but without a working X, it's somehow a non-starter.
[07:44] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, afaik ubuntu patches them for security / stability not sure how often
[07:44] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: ok, now if you rerun the first command i gave you, do you only have flashplugin64-installer
[07:44] <ikonia> yacc: as you're using an LTS release, I'd log a bug and push it through, and if it IS a kernel bug the fix may get back ported as an update, rather than a whole kernel update from proposed
[07:44] <KrayonWork> Gentoo64: This isn't my machine, is this version an official Ubuntu thing or a third party, do you know?
[07:44] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, i'll take a look
[07:45] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, if its not from a ppa and from standard repos then you should get official updates
[07:45] <KrayonWork> Gentoo64: TBH I don't really know, I'm an Arch user trying to get around this Ubuntu thing :P
[07:45] <taraduffy> ActionParsnip: its on my desktop, in a folder called "Driver", what is the CD command?
[07:46] <LinprayerxX> i am new at irc can someone tell me , is there an german irc for ubuntu and what had i have to done i use xchat . thanks for now
[07:46] <Asuk88> hi all some one know irc of anonymous?
[07:46] <Flannel> LinprayerxX: /join #ubuntu-de
[07:46] <yacc> ikonia, lol, how long will that take? Although the HDD+SSD journal setup will be becoming more popular, it's the cheapest way to upgrade the hdd usability, ...
[07:46] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, if theres a bug theres not much you can do apart from wait or submit a big report
[07:46] <Gentoo64> bug*
[07:46] <LinprayerxX> thx
[07:46] <ActionParsnip> taraduffy: cd ~/Desktop/Driver
[07:46] <ikonia> yacc: it will take as long as it takes, you can push it through by working with people, so I guess it is as quick as you can gather and motivate people
[07:47] <KrayonWork> How can I ascertain where it came from?
[07:48] <Gentoo64> KrayonWork, i have no idea what / if ubuntu does to the files
[07:48] <taraduffy> ActionParsnip: OK, done. Now how do I run the install.sh?
[07:49] <Gentoo64> ./install.sh
[07:49] <yacc> ikonia, my experience with reporting bugs on launchpad has been that the ubuntu guys have no qualms to merge bugs that are obviously not related (and/or at least not enough investigated to decide that), so if you've got a laptop that has a thermic issue (which is obviously software caused, because older kernels do not have it), you get merged into one huge bug that contains everything from broken software, missing driver support and true software issues.
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> taraduffy: chmod +x ./install.sh; sudo ./install.sh
[07:49] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, i can't tell, it looks happy is all i can say
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: sounds an all?
[07:49] <yacc> ikonia, curiously that "merged bug" never moved forward for years, guess this is by design so (if you merge different issues into one bug you'll have problems to manage it).
[07:50] <chalcedony> not sure ActionParsnip - restarting firefox
[07:50] <ikonia> yacc: I've found that you get what you put into the bug system, if you log a bug and just keep putting info on it, nothing will happen, if you log a bug with info, find the right people to work with and help push it through, it gets fixed. I don't believe the model is an acceptable model, but it is how it is
[07:51] <yacc> ikonia, so how does one find "the right people"?
[07:51] <yacc> bb, the dog needs a walk
[07:51] <ikonia> yacc: read on the mailing lists, look at previous bugs, look who's working on the current kernel updates, ask for input,contacts, just basic hussle
[07:51] <Guest16112> why ubuntu is so unstable????
[07:52] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, IT WORKS!!!
 : Thanks dude... :)
[07:52] <Gentoo64> Atharva, get it working?
[07:52] <Gentoo64> Guest16112, whats the problem?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip>  Guest16112 which release are you using?
[07:52] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: every thing!!
[07:52] <Guest16112> Gentoo64:  programs crash
[07:52] <Gentoo64> 11.04?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: sweet :-)
 : cmus is... mplayer is installed but I am unable to operate it :(
[07:53] <dr_willis> !details
[07:53] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: yep 11.04
[07:53] <Gentoo64> Atharva, is it pure cli you're using?
[07:53] <Gentoo64> Guest16112, i think the next version comes out in couple weeks
[07:53] <Gentoo64> no idea why 11.04 is so bad
[07:53] <Atharva> cli : IWhat is cli ? I dont know..how to check for it ?
[07:53] <ethanol> I have a keyboard with some special keys like calculator, web, mail and search. how or where could I change the target of for example the search function?
[07:53] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: even synaptic shows errors  on its first run
[07:54] <Gentoo64> Atharva, do you have a desktop running? or just a black console screen
[07:54] <dr_willis> they hurried up unity to get it tested out asap
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: if you run: history    you can copy the command i gave and store it for when you want to reinstall the OS
 :Desktop is running :)
[07:54] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: i think the next version keeps most of the problems
[07:54] <Gentoo64> Atharva, why do you need terminal apps? to run mplayer type mplayer than path to file
[07:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: tried maverick?
[07:55] <Gentoo64> Atharva, eg: mplayer /videos/etc
[07:55] <ethanol> 11.04 runs perfectly fine for me.
[07:55] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: no! what is that?
[07:55] <ethanol> don't understand why people QQ so much :<
[07:55] <zagibu> because it's different
[07:55] <Gentoo64> because it sucks for most people
[07:55] <ActionParsnip> !10.10 | Guest16112
[07:56] <zagibu> they want it to be new, but exactly the same as before
[07:56] <Gentoo64> makes them cry
[07:56] <ethanol> I like unity, it's not as fancy as fedora's new gnome3 approach, but still it's nice.
[07:56] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: you say i downgrade my ubuntu?
[07:56] <Gentoo64> Guest16112, 10.10 was a reliable one
[07:57] <zagibu> if you hate 11.04 so much, why not?
[07:57] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: all .04s are ustables?
[07:57] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: maverick is a bit older and is pretty solid. It will require a reinstall to achieve
[07:57] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, thank you i copied it to somewhere safe :)
[07:57] <dr_willis> i would think you have a bad install or flakey hardware if core tools like stnaptic are crashing
[07:57] <ethanol> why not just use 11.04 with classic interface?
[07:58] <ethanol> if unity bothers you
[07:58] <Gentoo64> Guest16112, id run memtest. have you overclocked the ram or cpu?
 : Consider I am on cli...then how to play ?
[07:58] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: nope! none.
[07:58] <ActionParsnip> ethanol: its not a bother, its unstable apparently
[07:58] <Gentoo64> Atharva, type mplayer /file
[07:58] <ActionParsnip> ethanol: worth a try though
[07:59] <Gentoo64> Atharva, use tab complete
[07:59] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: have you tried ubuntu classic session?
[07:59] <Gentoo64> Atharva, or if you have a desktop, click on the file from file manager and choose open with and type mplayer (thats what i do)
[08:00] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: hmm, no!
[08:00] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: classic you mean before 11.04??
[08:01] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: log off, click your name then at the bottom midle click that and select ubuntu classic
[08:01] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: what's the difference then?
 : I want it to run on a machine with cli only...How to do it for that ?
[08:02] <chalcedony> Guest16112, classic is the way it's been, but with updates inside, runs good
[08:02] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: no compiz and no unity. See how you get on there
[08:02] <Gentoo64> Atharva, im not sure, it might just work typing mplayer than path to file. ive never tried mplayer in pure console
[08:03] <chalcedony> Atharva, mplayer is fantastic for stuff like dictation in console
 : So where can I get the best Information about it ??
[08:03] <Gentoo64> google
[08:03] <Gentoo64> mplayer console
[08:03] <burg> hello. how can i retrieve pppoe password stored in ubuntu with pppoeconf ?
[08:04] <Gentoo64> Atharva, you might have to mess with some settings to get it working in console im not sure
[08:04] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: ok. thanks for replies. but you know, people around me use windows and make fun of ubuntu because of its programs crashes and unstability
[08:04] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: if the OS is stable then we have some suspects
[08:04] <Gentoo64> lol
[08:05] <Guest16112> ActionParsnip: you say windows is not a better one?
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: i bet they all use firefox and vlc though ;-)
 : And one more thing..Can I minimize the cmus in cli or I have to completely quit it to start another application ?
[08:06] <Gentoo64> Atharva, you have to quit (q then y)
[08:06] <chalcedony> Guest16112, you are talking about the oldest battle, my os is better than your os
[08:06] <Gentoo64> Atharva, or use another terminal
[08:06] <ActionParsnip> Guest16112: better o
[08:06] <ActionParsnip> Better one what?
 : But in cli, I think only one terminal is available for operation...isn't it ?
[08:07] <Gentoo64> Atharva, ctrl + alt + f1-f12
[08:07] <chalcedony> Guest16112, i'm glad there are many os's and as many ways as there are users to use and enjoy them, pick what is right for you - ubuntu is awesome and no viruses and defragging
[08:07] <Guest16112> chalcedony: yes its an old one, :D i know.
[08:07] <Gentoo64> Atharva, will switch consoles
[08:07] <Gentoo64> Guest16112, what about this old one: http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/
[08:07]  * chalcedony smiles
[08:08] <dumbo88> ztrl-Z ; bg
[08:08] <LukeNukem_> is ubuntu good
[08:08] <LukeNukem_> at all
[08:08] <LukeNukem_> srsly
[08:08] <Atharva> !enter | LukeNukem_
[08:08] <Guest16112> Gentoo64: :)) there's a website for it!
[08:08] <Gentoo64> LukeNukem_, good as in what?
[08:09] <LukeNukem_> Gentoo64, media?
 great work dude...Thanks :)
[08:09] <Gentoo64> ok
[08:09] <Gentoo64> LukeNukem_, what do you mean by media?
[08:09] <LukeNukem_> movies
[08:09] <Gentoo64> ok
[08:09] <Gentoo64> it plays movies
[08:11] <LukeNukem_> Gentoo64, is it good for php
[08:11] <bitmonk> as good as anything is..
[08:11] <Gentoo64> yea its good for most things
[08:11] <yacc> ikonia, well, which mailing lists? LKM?
[08:11]  * bitmonk ducks
[08:12] <yacc> Didn't think that Ubuntu used mailing lists much.
[08:12] <jowop> i cannot for the life of me get this to work on EC2: http://pastebin.com/YJh8FcK8 ...once i reboot the instance it doesn't come back.
[08:13] <somsip> jowop: are you attaching the EBS at startup?
[08:13] <jowop> (after reboot) under EBS Volumes, i'm seeing the four in use by the instance
[08:14] <jowop> is there something that i'm overlooking with that?
[08:14] <seeg> hello
[08:14] <VampsDaBeast> any one know of software that would give me better usablilty in edit metamodes then the nvidia x server config
[08:14] <jowop> all say attached, so i'm assuming that what you've asked is the default behavior
[08:15] <seeg> is there a way to see the differences between files in a ubuntu .deb package and the files currently on the disk?
[08:15] <somsip> jowop: if they're attached sounds ok. Not sure about raid on EC2 as I only have experience with single EBS vols tho
[08:15] <yacc> seeg, there might be a better way, but download the deb, unpack it (deb files are ar archives, man page, google), and then compare the files.
[08:16] <WaltherFI> Is there a command to see which soundcard chip I have? It's integrated and therefore of poor quality, but i'd like to know what it is capable of
[08:16] <yacc> WaltherFI, lspci?
[08:16] <chalcedony> hmm so now i have youtubes that play, but when i click on System > Preferences > Sound - i get a popup that says: Waiting for Sound system to respond.  - i don't have sounds in xchat. :|
[08:16] <jowop> somsip: i think it may be the fstab. i cannot bring up server logs after the reboot :(
[08:16] <WaltherFI> yacc: Not listed in there, as it's integrated
[08:17] <WaltherFI> yacc: it is not a separate pci device
[08:17] <WaltherFI> yacc: i'm on a laptop here
[08:17] <jowop> somsip: The disk drive for /raid is not ready yet or not present
[08:17] <jowop> Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery
[08:17] <yacc> WaltherFI, well, then you can grep /var/log/kernel.log ;)
[08:18] <WaltherFI> yacc: ha, that'll do, thanks
[08:18] <somsip> jowop: Can you see the attached columes on the instance...sudo fdisk -l I guess is the same for RAID?
[08:19] <yacc> WaltherFI, and the lspci should give you the search strings for google => usually, one would hope, a given product does not change overnight it's contents (yes, I know, it's IT, and things like this happens, but hope dies last)
[08:19] <WaltherFI> yacc: ahh, apparently my graphics card does the soundcards job too
[08:19] <VampsDaBeast> yacc, you aware of any programs that make setting up metamodes easier then the nvidia x server settings?
[08:19] <yacc> VampsDaBeast, meta mode?
[08:19] <WaltherFI> yacc: that's why i couldn't see anything related to a soundcard in lspci
[08:19] <VampsDaBeast> for monitors
[08:22] <styol> how do I go about mounting a USB flash drive? It seems like its appearing in lsusb but I'm not sure how to determine what to mount -- some output http://pastie.org/2630895
[08:23] <stianhj> How good is Exchange support in Linux? Started a new job today, everyone uses Macs, and mail/calendar/etc is all Microsoft Exchange..
[08:24] <LukeNukem_> stianhj, Microsoft is good, apple are just beeoches. open source - tha shizz
[08:24] <WaltherFI> stianhj: Everything should work with Thunderbird or Evolution, afaik
[08:24] <WaltherFI> stianhj: I do recommend using Thunderbird though, as it is the upcoming default, evolution will be ditched in 11.10
[08:25] <LukeNukem_> whats better
[08:25] <LukeNukem_> fedora or ubuntu?
[08:25] <auronandace> !poll | LukeNukem_
[08:26] <WaltherFI> LukeNukem_: Also, for an official support channel, we of course will suggest you to use Ubuntu.
[08:26] <seeg> yacc, ok, thank you, i'll try unpacking then ;)
[08:27] <stianhj> WaltherFI: Thunderbird only give IMAP and POP as option when setting up email, not exchange
[08:27] <esheep> hate fedora but it has Gnome Shell, Ubuntu is easier but oh that Unity stuff...
[08:27] <stianhj> tried Evolution mail which couldn't connect to the server for some reason..
[08:28] <stianhj> WaltherFI: i guess i'll google some thunderbird exchange setup
[08:28] <LukeNukem_> at school we got ubuntu :)
[08:28] <esheep> stianhj: evolution isnt easy to get on exchange sometimes
[08:28] <tommyyako47mm> hi
[08:28] <tommyyako47mm> any1 cal tell me hw can reboot firefox..?
[08:29] <LukeNukem_> i had sme problem last time i dual booted with ubuntu and windows..for eg my windows system gave unexpected shutdowns and inside of ubuntu i dint have codecs and i installed a few and they wouldnt work
[08:29] <WaltherFI> stianhj: try this http://radu.cotescu.com/thunderbird-microsoft-exchange/
[08:30] <WaltherFI> stianhj: also, got to go now, sorry
[08:31] <yacc> VampsDaBeast, well, you could always write scripts that manipulate the nvidia settings directly, but what exactly are you trying to achieve?
[08:32] <artypig78> is there a way of forcing a client to delete all cookies/cache thru html/js?
[08:34] <tommyyako47mm> any1 kw how this shit
[08:34] <VampsDaBeast> yacc, and easy way to edit the metamodes, and possibly a shortcut to activate them
[08:34] <japro> hi, i had the update installer install some new stuff, now the system is unreasonable sluggish on my netbook
[08:35] <japro> it seems to consume way more memory than before
[08:35] <japro> even after bootup without starting anything it already  uses 400mb
[08:35] <yacc> VampsDaBeast, as I'm not using the closed-source nvidia stuff, what exactly are meta modes?
[08:36] <VampsDaBeast> metamodes all you to setup different display sets, when using more then one monitor..
[08:36] <japro> top doesn't show a single memory consumer that really stands out
[08:36] <VampsDaBeast> i'm not using the closed either.. i'm using what was available thru the install
[08:39] <japro> no one here with a netbook and the same problem?
[08:39] <japro> very high memory usage after last 11.04 upates?
[08:39] <LukeNukem_> games on ubuntu?
[08:40] <esheep> LukeNukem_: lots lol
[08:41] <hot2trot> does anyone have any solution to the bluetooth A2DP delay I get? My mw600 has like a half second delay when in A2DP version, but regular in mono version
[08:41] <japro> now it uses 600+ MB just to run firefox and xchat
[08:42] <LukeNukem_> esheep, call of duty?
[08:43] <esheep> LukeNukem_: don't run windows games here but, to do that you can try installing wine
[08:44] <emr> Hello, i'm using lucid and i need to update libmemcached greater than 0.32, how i can do that?
[08:44] <japro> can i somehow roll back updates?
[08:46] <almoxarife> japro: like going back a version?
[08:47] <japro> well, yeah, after the most recent upgrades the memory usage and startup times went through the roof and i can't pinpoint the source
[08:47] <almoxarife> japro: what version?
[08:48] <japro> 11.04
[08:48] <japro> it consumes more than 400mb just after startup before running anything additional
[08:49] <almoxarife> japro: really? 11.04 seems to me to be the most worthwhile and I have played with the diff versions
[08:49] <japro> this happened just now after running the updated manager
[08:49] <almoxarife> japro: about 340mb?
[08:49] <japro> the updated manager took forever since it started swapping stuff out
[08:50] <japro> over 400. now it's at 650 with xchat and firefox
[08:50] <almoxarife> japro: 340mb is about what I expect to see at startup on 11.04
[08:51] <almoxarife> japro: firefox eats ram depending on addons, chrome does too
[08:51] <sveinse> How can I reset/purge all bluetooth config from my machine? I cannot uninstall with purge because bluetooth is interwoven into gnome
[08:51] <esheep> japro: how many tabs open on firefox?
[08:51] <japro> esheep, one that displays a stackoverflow page
[08:52] <almoxarife> sveinse: keep it from starting via 'startup apps'
[08:52] <japro> well, maybe this is just normal and i didn't notice before
[08:53] <almoxarife> japro: what I wish existed was a ram economizer, something to pull ram from the cruff
[08:53] <japro> i just never had it start swapping memory before (even running eclipse etc.)
[08:53] <japro> also startup after the update seemed very slow
[08:53] <esheep> almoxarife: its called package manager :)
[08:53] <sveinse> almoxarife: How does that help? My problem is that I'm unable to remove a bluetooth device, which I need to re-add to have a working mouse on my system. So I hoped on wiping all of the bluetooth config would help
[08:54] <japro> hmpf, there is definitely something different
[08:54] <japro> i had multiple browser windows, eclipse and multiple PDFs open before on this machine
[08:54] <almoxarife> esheep: removing bluetooth completely is a bench, I suggested insuring it did not start on user session
[08:54] <shebi> hai
[08:54] <curiousx> aloha
[08:55] <japro> now just starting firefox and eclipse puts it to 850mb usage out of my 1gb
[08:55] <curiousx> japro: what version of firefox ?
[08:55] <japro> 7.0.1
[08:56] <almoxarife> sveinse: so you need bluetooth every session
[08:56] <curiousx> OMG mozilla people say that version 7 reduce mem usage at 30% =(
[08:56] <esheep> curiousx: LOL
[08:57] <japro> well, I'm not sure that firefox per se is the problem
[08:57] <hellslinger> curiousx: do you know why FF versions have become so, "inflated?"
[08:57] <almoxarife> chromium brothers, it's the llamas rear
[08:57] <japro> hmm, it sits at 90mb atm
[08:57] <curiousx> i have Firefox 7 as well, and after 6 hours runing it consume 120 megas =P
[08:57] <Morgawr> hello.. I have a question, I'm in need to recompile the linux kernel with some testing patches for a school project, can I just grab a linux kernel verion from github (the one maintained by Linus Torvalds) and apply that to Ubuntu or will it require some special patching specifically for ubuntu?
[08:58] <curiousx> i dont know but, do you install it from Mozilla's repos ?
[08:58] <japro> now after closing firefox and ecplise again
[08:58] <japro> ist still sits at 660mb
[08:58] <japro> just running xchat and top
[08:58] <japro> hmpf
[08:59] <japro> maybe i should try classic instead of unity?
[08:59] <almoxarife> chrome, it's the gas, once its set to your confy level and sync'ed its saved for ever,
[09:00] <esheep> epiphany isnt a bad browser for lightweight usage
[09:00] <hellslinger> Morgawr, there is a process for building a working kernel for ubuntu
[09:01] <hellslinger> Morgawr, you cannot simply make a bzImage of it, and have it boot from grub and expect it to work properly
[09:01] <curiousx> i used epiphany and is good it's firefox based
[09:02] <Morgawr> hellslinger: Is there a website or guide explaining how to do so? mainly because I just need to apply a few patches and see if they run or not... nothing too fancy
[09:02] <hellslinger> Morgawr, you may want to consider using a build-from-source distro if you want to test a custom kernel, like gentoo or arch
[09:02] <esheep> curiousx: epiphany isnt firefox based
[09:02] <Morgawr> hellslinger: yeah... I think I might as well go with gentoo I guess
[09:03] <curiousx> mmm... i think so, couse are too similary =P
[09:03] <esheep> curiousx: epiphany is a webkit based browser
[09:03] <curiousx> excusemy so =(
[09:03] <esheep> :)
[09:04] <hellslinger> Morgawr, explain a little more about what you want to do? I might have better advice
[09:05] <Morgawr> hellslinger: it's a university project, our professor made some patches on the UDP protocol and gave us the patched files... we have to do the same with the TCP protocol and then compile the kernel and test them
[09:05] <dD0T> Not exactly "ubuntu" related but does anyone know where to file bugs for the ubuntu one windows client?
[09:05] <hellslinger> Morgawr, does this project require anything GUI dependent? or are you testing TCP/UDP stuff on a command line?
[09:06] <Morgawr> hellslinger: nah, theoretically only command line
[09:06] <A_J> Hey All Quick Question, I have two internal hardrives, and the non boot hard drive does not auto mount on startup, any idea how i can do this ?
[09:06] <hellslinger> Morgawr, then I would go with gentoo or arch, you can bet your install bootstrapped, build a kernel
[09:06] <hellslinger> ad then if you need X, you can just build enough to run xorg and fluxbox
[09:06] <qrq> How set EsounD as default sound server?
[09:07] <Morgawr> hellslinger: I already have a VM with gentoo and X server, so that's not a problem...
[09:07] <almoxarife> qrq: perhaps in a vbox
[09:08] <qrq> almoxarife Its not possible in ubuntu?
[09:08] <sveinse> Let me rephrase my question: How can I wipe/erase all bluetooth config? Does anyone know where the bluetooth config/pairing is stored?
[09:08] <hellslinger> Morgawr, I tried to build brainfuck scheduler into Ubuntu a couple of years back and it was a slow and painful process, never worked perfectly either
[09:08] <A_J> hellslinger: look at my question
[09:09] <almoxarife> qrq: possible? anything is possible, but pulse is basically the sound, and de3viating from it won't be easy
[09:09] <antony> I want to disable the USB ports for mass storage..is there any gui?
[09:09] <almoxarife> qrq: what needs esound?
[09:09] <Morgawr> hellslinger: okay, thanks for the help then, I will go study the process of building custom kernels on gentoo and then get back to the project :)
[09:09] <curiousx> A_J: you have to add a line in the "/etc/fstab" file to mount automaticaly
[09:09] <curiousx> one line per hard drive
[09:10] <antony> We are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for our desktops user. For the data security,
[09:10] <antony> I want to disable the USB ports for mass storage.
[09:10] <A_J> looking one sec curiousx
[09:10] <japro> starting classic also doesn't change much
[09:10] <qrq> almoxarife It got better dynamic range.. :)
[09:10] <hellslinger> Morgawr, it is as easy as downloading the source, make xconfig, make, and make install on gentoo.... good luck!
[09:10] <esheep> A_J: check mount manual page or google it
[09:10] <hellslinger> A_J: I'm sorry I can't find your original question, can you resend?
[09:10] <japro> also it seems the memory percentages that top gives me dont "add up"
[09:11] <A_J> nvm hellslinger
[09:11] <japro> there is a few processes using 1 or 2% but mostly sub 1%
[09:11] <A_J> ok got fstab open, how do i add it
[09:11] <almoxarife> qrq: I have a oldddddddddddddddd link to making ubuntu pure alsa, that help?
[09:12] <curiousx> A_J: paste the output of ---> sudo fdisk -l
[09:12] <qrq> almoxarife Well thanks but I dont want to experiment again. I can launch apps in esound its enough
[09:13] <qrq> almoxarife Bet getting rid of pulseaudio would be dangerous :D
[09:13] <A_J> curiousx: http://pastebin.com/bkRy94ga
[09:13] <qrq> Especially because I read now that esound is working with pulseaudio
[09:13] <qrq> -_-
[09:13] <almoxarife> qrq: wanna know what cheap awsome dynamic is? hdmi sound with an extra set of external speakers (cheap too) set to pick up the out from the hdmi
[09:14] <curiousx> so, you want to automount the windows partition ?
[09:14] <qrq> almoxarife I got Sennheisers
[09:14] <almoxarife> qrq: getting rid of pulse is verbotten, yes
[09:14] <almoxarife> qrq: so, mine are cheap but don't require esound :), good luck
[09:15] <A_J> curiousx: also fstab is readme only now
[09:15] <qrq> almoxarife Ubuntu would be great if not this immature unity :P
[09:16] <esheep> qrq: ah unity - the thing that split ubuntu users lol
[09:16] <qrq> But that was said hundred times
[09:16] <qrq> Or even more
[09:17] <almoxarife> qrq: that's why after flopping around I decide on 11.04 classic with cairo dock, its suppose to be like apple, don't know, I could never afford one, but its clean
[09:17] <sveinse> Where can I get more information about how bluetooth-properties and how to manually edit its config?
[09:17] <sveinse> There's apparently no usable response here...
[09:17] <curiousx> A_J: install ---> sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[09:18] <qrq> In my opinion Empathy , Compiz and Unity is one of few Ubuntu problems :P
[09:18] <esheep> qrq - spot on
[09:18] <qrq> esheep What mean to "spot on"? :)
[09:18] <enchilado> I don't like Unity _at all_ :S
[09:19] <RTFMnow> sveinse: just use blueman applet
[09:19] <esheep> qrq: spot on about ubuntu's problems
[09:19] <almoxarife> qrq: compiz is great, the simple one, one corner picks walls, the other picks apps, that means endless walls and apps
[09:19] <enchilado> qrq: "spot on" means "absolutely correct", more or less.
[09:19] <A_J> curiousx: ntfs-3g is already the newest version.
[09:19] <sveinse> RTFMnow: No, it also doesn't behave correctly. It sits deeper (its a known bug)
[09:20] <esheep> A_J: ntfs-3g comes default
[09:20] <curiousx> A_J: ok, login as root
[09:20] <qrq> Lucid is great , really , there is not much bad things to said about it
[09:20] <A_J> umm how
[09:20] <qrq> Not many.
[09:21] <esheep> almoxarife: compiz is a waste of resources
[09:21] <curiousx> and ---> echo "/dev/sdb1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
[09:21] <qrq> esheep Just like Beryl was :D
[09:21] <esheep> qrq: yeah
[09:21] <qrq> Beryl was extremaly hungry of resources :D
[09:21] <curiousx> sory i dont have installed lastest ubuntu =(
[09:21] <almoxarife> esheep: yeah, cause I am doing some really serious stuff here, I can't afford the time slices
[09:22] <A_J> curiousx: how do i login as r00t
[09:22] <curiousx> now create the directory ---> sudo mkdir /mnt/windows
[09:22] <dai> good morning
[09:22] <curiousx> A_J: sudo su
[09:23] <esheep> most users have a 10 minute play with wobbly windows etc then compiz is done
[09:23] <RTFMnow> myn is -> #/dev/sda1                     /mnt/hd/WindowsXP ntfs-3g   umask=0022,fmask=0133,uid=777,gid=100,locale=en_US   0   0
[09:23] <curiousx> RTFMnow: won me =(
[09:23] <dai> I'm looking for some help regarding dual booting ubuntu and windows 7 with a shared ntfs partition, is it possible to do it?
[09:23] <almoxarife> btw, if you got to cli, get cli companion, its like cli gui, sort of
[09:23] <A_J> doune curiousx
[09:23] <stianhj> dai: yes, you can mount your windows partition from inside ubuntu
[09:24] <Girly-Girl> I've got a problem after installing unity on top of Kubuntu, when I start kde, gnome stuff starts in background, and it takes long to load, if kde desktop (plasma) crashes,  see gnome behind it!
[09:24] <curiousx> you are login as root ? or you done all the comands ?
[09:24] <dai> @ stianhj what about the other way around? I
[09:24] <almoxarife> dai: yes it is, two ways, simple ways
[09:24] <stianhj> Girly-Girl: uninstall unity?
[09:25] <Girly-Girl> stianhj: I wanted to have unity session also seperate from KDE
[09:25] <stianhj> dai: windows can (of course) read/write NTFS partitions, Ubuntu can also read/write
[09:25] <auronandace> curiousx: please don't advise people to login as root
[09:25] <stianhj> NTFS
[09:25] <A_J> curiousx: is that it ?
[09:25] <qrq> Not even mention about KDE issues :P
[09:25] <Kiranos> is this the place for ubuntu 11.10 beta?
[09:25] <stianhj> dai: but windows can't (easily) read ext4 partitions (so your /home and / folders)
[09:25] <auronandace> !11.10 | Kiranos
[09:25] <curiousx> auronandace: ok
[09:26] <qrq> But really im impressed by Gnome and Ubuntu developers
[09:26] <qrq> I mean by their work
[09:26] <curiousx> yes that all
[09:26] <almoxarife> dai: if windows is already installed, then consider ubuntu wubi, ran it for years, works fine, and you can access the windows files :), got extra room?dual boot and still do the same
[09:26] <stianhj> Girly-Girl: oh, not sure why they would mix together
[09:26] <A_J> !natty
[09:26] <dai> that's the problem.. I allocated the rest of my hdd space as ext4 on /home
[09:26] <dai> win7 doesn't detect any other partition than itself
[09:26] <stianhj> dai, almoxarife: you don't need wubi to access windows files
[09:26] <stianhj> from ubuntu
[09:26] <Girly-Girl> stianhj: I think the nautilus process starts and does fishy things
[09:27] <curiousx> you create de directory ---> /mnt/windows  #then ---> echo "/dev/sdb1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
[09:27] <dai> ubuntu wubi is another ubuntu os ?
[09:27] <A_J> yes curiousx did that
[09:27] <Kiranos> auronandace: I was more thinking of the development channel, I'm having issues with hybernate
[09:27] <curiousx> ok, reboot
[09:27] <stianhj> dai: no, wubi is a windows installer for ubuntu..
[09:27] <Kiranos> on 11.10
[09:27] <qrq> Many people complain about Ubuntu and etc but developers are making really great job
[09:27] <almoxarife> dai: wubi is a way to ubuntu within windows
[09:27] <curiousx> and see if automount the NTFS file system
[09:27] <A_J> okie brb curiousx
[09:28] <stianhj> dai: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/windows-installer
[09:28] <curiousx> what's mean brb ?
[09:28] <thyri0n> qrq: agreed
[09:28] <dai> sorry i'm new, only tried linux a few hours ago which is why Im dual booting
[09:28] <auronandace> Kiranos: 11.10 is under development, it is discussed in #ubuntu+1 as that factoid pointed out
[09:28] <dai> ah!
[09:28] <thyri0n> though i've completely gone OSX now
[09:28] <taraduffy> Hi, am trying to install a printer driver download, but get "package management system cannot be identified". Can anyone walk me through it please?
[09:28] <qrq> Of course Debian have big merits in that
[09:29] <dai> would it be possible to use NTFS instead of ext4 for /home when installing Ubuntu and would windows recognize that partition ?
[09:29] <taraduffy> Am using: "chmod +x ./install.sh; sudo ./install.sh"
[09:29] <thyri0n> curiousx: brb = be right back
[09:29] <qrq> Thats out of the question
[09:29] <curiousx> thanks thyri0n =)
[09:29] <almoxarife> dai: you can dual boot, great, so, how much room you got after win is done?
[09:30] <overdub> curiousx, alternative to rebooting is: sudo mount -a
[09:30] <Kiranos> auronandace: thanks!
[09:30] <almoxarife> dai: no, /home is on a ext4, but I got around it by keeping stuff on the ntfs via links
[09:30] <dai> my partitions are 50gb win7 / 15gb ubuntu / 100mb master boot record / 500mb linux boot / 5gb swap / 230gb /home
[09:31] <curiousx> overdub: i don't remeber that =P
[09:31] <fjorgynn> :D
[09:31] <A_J> curiousx: the drive disaprred
[09:31] <almoxarife> dai: 230gb home?
[09:31] <A_J> now what
[09:31] <dai> i dumped the rest of my hdd space into /home
[09:31] <RTFMnow> what does 100mb master boot record mean ?
[09:31] <RTFMnow> my MBR is 512 bytes .
[09:32] <Gentoo64> RTFMnow, windows 7 boot partition?
[09:32] <dai> it's space windows takes out for system files
[09:32] <RTFMnow> 100mb for partition data ?
[09:32] <Gentoo64> RTFMnow, do you use windows 7?
[09:32] <almoxarife> dai: I don't thonk you have issues then, 15gb ubuntu means youwont  be kubunting and edibunting , but that's a lot of space
[09:32] <Gentoo64> it creates a boot partition
[09:32] <Gentoo64> thats 100mb
[09:32] <dai> would ubuntu wubi run linux as an application within windows or is it set up as a dual boot system?
[09:33] <RTFMnow> oh
[09:33] <curiousx> ups! A_J ---> sudo apt-get install pastebinit ; cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com
[09:33] <RTFMnow> Gentoo64: never
[09:33] <llutz> dai: its win bootpartition, not master boot record, which is something completly different
[09:33]  * RTFMnow uses Slackware linux
[09:33] <dai> sorry then :p
[09:33] <esheep> got win7, arch and freebsd on this laptop - have booted win7 once lol
[09:33] <curiousx> and paste here the link made
[09:33] <Gentoo64> RTFMnow, i dont know hten
[09:33] <almoxarife> dai: if you wubi you won't be able to win7 at the same time
[09:34] <almoxarife> RTFMnow: so f??????? what?
[09:35] <A_J> curiousx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/701556/
[09:35] <almoxarife> RTFMnow: its like this, show me something I can't do in ubuntu you can do in slahhhhhhhhhhk
[09:35] <Gentoo64> ^ thats jealousy right there
[09:35] <Gentoo64> bet you wouldnt say that if he said mint
[09:35] <Gentoo64> :)
[09:35] <dai> hmm I'm looking for a way to have [Windows 7 OS] [Ubuntu OS] [Shared Hdd Space Accessible to Both read/write] is there a program or setup that could make that work?
[09:36] <RTFMnow> lol
[09:36] <Gentoo64> dai, use a seperate ntfs partition
[09:36] <Gentoo64> just a data one
[09:36] <almoxarife> hell, its all linux
[09:36] <Gentoo64> its offtopic
[09:36] <Gentoo64> theyre not all the same
[09:37] <Gentoo64> dai, just make an ntfs partition and you can access it from both win and linux
[09:37] <almoxarife> the kernel, linux made it
[09:37] <Gentoo64> linus
[09:37] <Gentoo64> lol
[09:37] <A_J> btw curiousx i use this ntfs partion only for ubuntu,i don't use windows
[09:37] <curiousx> mmm... i dont know, paste ---> sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com
[09:37] <almoxarife> linus the person
[09:37] <Gentoo64> we all know
[09:38] <RTFMnow> the guy from Finland           land
[09:38] <dai> I'll try that, thanks guys!
[09:38] <almoxarife> I guess you use geennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnntoooo64
[09:38] <A_J> also curiousx can you remove that free agent drive please
[09:38] <llutz> take your my-distro/your-distro  to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:38] <dai> if it doesn't work, ill come haunt you guys down in this chat channel ho ho ho ho~
[09:38] <Gentoo64> almostroot, be quiet man
[09:39] <overdub> A_J, see if you can mount from command line: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/windows
[09:39] <almoxarife> dai: good luck
[09:39] <dai> <3
[09:39] <A_J> curiousx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/701561/
[09:39] <esheep> almoxarife: someone has to use it
[09:39] <A_J> @ overdub : Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened.
[09:39] <A_J> The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which
[09:39] <A_J> could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command.
[09:39] <curiousx> A_J: add "defaults" without quotes after "0 0"
[09:40] <A_J> it's read only curiousx
[09:40] <A_J> i cannot add :(O
[09:41] <RTFMnow> why is there around six ubuntu discs ?
[09:41] <almoxarife> esheep: I suppose, I tried installing 'arch', man did I get bored choosing how it should work, I finally had enough, please let me out]\
[09:41] <Gentoo64> RTFMnow, there isnt :s
[09:41] <curiousx> just r--r--r ?
[09:41] <A_J> RTFMnow: there is only one
[09:41] <esheep> A_J: its mounted with root permissions
[09:41] <Gentoo64> almoxarife, take it to offtopic. it sup to you what you use
[09:41] <A_J> curiousx: where do i put in r--r--r
[09:41] <empity> I'm trying to update the index of an old ubuntu (9.04)
[09:41] <curiousx> so, how yo add the line i wrote you ?
[09:42] <empity> are the update links not valid anymore or?
[09:42] <A_J> esheep: well yea i did a sudo
[09:42] <mandelay> I cannot switch my wm to sawfish on 11.04... I've set all keys in gconf and I've set the alternatives correctly, but Gnome (classic) still starts metacity instead of sawfish
[09:42] <mandelay> What am I doing wrong?
[09:42] <auronandace> !eol | empity
[09:42] <almoxarife> Gentoo64: yes, it  is gentttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[09:43] <A_J> ok curiousx you want me to add defaults ?
[09:43] <A_J> done
[09:43] <A_J> reboot curiousx ?
[09:43] <curiousx> yes, before "0 0"
[09:43] <qixiz> привет
[09:44] <curiousx> no, then ---> sudo mount -a
[09:44] <A_J> before or after ?
[09:44] <A_J> A_J: add "defaults" without quotes after "0 0"
[09:44] <empity> ubottu: ok thanks, makes sense, than I should propose an update to the LTS 10.04
[09:44] <curiousx> mmm... like that ---> defaults 0 0

[09:45] <A_J> curiousx: : http://paste.ubuntu.com/701563/
[09:45] <mandelay> I cannot switch my wm to sawfish on 11.04... I've set all keys in gconf and I've set the alternatives correctly, but Gnome (classic) still starts metacity instead of sawfish
[09:47] <curiousx> seems like an error in the syntax in fstab but...
[09:47] <curiousx> paste again "fstab"
[09:48] <A_J> curiousx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/701565/
[09:50] <auronandace> A_J: what is your uid? (check with id)
[09:50] <curiousx> i dont know =( the fstab is okey
[09:50] <A_J> sorry what is uid
[09:50] <A_J> curiousx: can you roll back the changes
[09:50] <A_J> !uid
[09:51] <auronandace> A_J: type id in a terminal
[09:51] <auronandace> A_J: your uid is likely 1000
[09:51] <A_J> yes 1000
[09:51] <auronandace> A_J: replace defaults with: rw,uid=1000
[09:52] <auronandace> A_J: /dev/sdb1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0
[09:53] <A_J> ok done auronandace
[09:53] <siksi> any suggestions why dbus is behaving strangely in a fresh installation of ubuntu? "Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply."
[09:53] <auronandace> A_J: reboot, then it should be writable
[09:53] <siksi> also starting nautilus is extremely slow
[09:53] <A_J> auronandace: ok brb i guess
[09:53] <auronandace> A_J: this is assuming /mnt/windows exists
[09:53] <siksi> i tried googling but got just old bug reports with various statuses from invalid to confirmed
[09:53] <iceroot> A_J: no need for a reboot
[09:54] <iceroot> A_J: sudo mount -a  instead of a reboot
[09:54] <curiousx> A_J: ---> ls /mnt/
[09:54] <auronandace> A_J: yeah, sorry, you could just remount instead
[09:54] <auronandace> iceroot: thanks
[09:54] <inz> siksi, sounds like someone on the D-Bus is not responding to messages
[09:55] <esheep> case of de bus is going around in circles
[09:55] <A_J_> auronandace: nop did'nt work
[09:56] <A_J_> yet can't even manually mount the drive
[09:56] <siksi> inz: well yeah, but is there any sensible reason why that would happen in a fresh installation of ubuntu? (fresh here meaning installed last friday and since it's really been just apt-get install apache & co)
[09:57] <auronandace> A_J: hmm, odd
[09:57] <A_J> auronandace: now what
[09:58] <A_J> perhaps roll back the changes auronandace
[09:58] <A_J> so i can use my drive
[09:58] <curiousx> the windows folder exists in /mnt ?
[09:58] <A_J> yes curiousx
[09:59] <curiousx> just you have to remove the line we wrote in fstab
[09:59] <A_J> hmm the drive is also there
[09:59] <auronandace> A_J: how are you editing fstab?
[09:59] <A_J> sudo gpedit path auronandace
[09:59] <jase_> #malang
[10:00] <auronandace> A_J: gpedit? do you mean gedit? and i hope you are using gksudo instead of just sudo
[10:01] <siksi> restarting with an older kernel seems to work
[10:01] <esheep> A_J: just a tip, when messing about with critcal files like fstab, make a backup of it first
[10:01] <siksi> i'll have to put some time into trying to figure out why that happens later on
[10:01] <siksi> have to try get some work done now
[10:01] <KM0201> auronandace: while gksudo is more appropriate, it's not gonna make a difference whether the entry works properly or not.
[10:01] <A_J> esheep: okie made one just now
[10:01] <taraduffy> can anyone help me with an install via a terminal?
[10:01]  * A_J is going for a reboot brb
[10:02] <auronandace> KM0201: i'm aware of that, just want to encourage better usage
[10:02] <KM0201> auronandace: of course, but.. if sudo didn't fix the problem, gksudo won't.. and his whole issue seems to be that his fstab entry is working, my point is... don't confuse the issue...
[10:03] <KM0201> A_J: can you pastebin your fstab?
[10:04] <yacc> So what do I do if I find a bug in apport (10.04LTS)?
[10:04] <Syria> Hello, How can I install gnome 3.2 on my Natty 11.04?
[10:04] <KM0201> !gnome3 | Syria i would not recommend messing w/ gnome 3 at this point..
[10:05] <Girly-Girl> yacc: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Apport
[10:05] <A_J> it worked at the end auronandace but i needed it mounted as it was mnaully mounted not in the windows folder, as i have torrent paths assosiated with the address
[10:05] <auronandace> A_J: well done
[10:06] <Syria> KM0201:  Thnx, I will install it now since it is unstable.
[10:06] <A_J> lol i deleted it and am back where i started
[10:06] <A_J> perhaps a bash script to run whenever i startup auronandace
[10:06] <KM0201> Syria: just be prepared to reinstall your OS.. you've been warned
[10:06] <KM0201> A_J: pastebin your fstab please
[10:07] <KM0201> A_J: and also the output of sudo fdisk -l
[10:07] <yacc> Girly-Girl, so how does that help me if apport ends with a traceback (Actually I know even the fix, *grrr*, it's a newbie python error)
[10:07] <siksi> actually, restarting in the old kernel did not fix i think. now it opens, but if i mousever the nautilus window it dims out
[10:08] <A_J> KM0201: http://pastebin.com/b6DdC7Jr
[10:08] <yacc> Well, the web interface hides it a little bit, but google found the web form ;)
[10:08] <A_J> KM0201: : http://pastebin.com/Lt6FM8xT
[10:09] <yacc> Nope, it redirects to a Wiki page telling me to use apport, these guys should be shot.
[10:09] <Syria> KM0201:  Sorry I wanted to say I will NOT install it since it is unstable!!
[10:09] <Syria> KM0201:  Thank you for warning me. :-)
[10:09] <yacc> ?no-redirect <= this is so unfunny.
[10:10] <KM0201> A_J: 2 more  ... output of    mount    and then sudo blkid
[10:11] <A_J> KM0201: mount http://pastebin.com/HhmC4EsA
[10:11] <A_J> KM0201: http://pastebin.com/H6Th1v8C
[10:12] <KM0201> A_J: hang on a sec..
[10:12] <taraduffy> hi, can anyone help me with "package management system cannot be identified" in an install via a terminal?
[10:13] <KM0201> A_J: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[10:13] <jonathon_> I'm having trouble with Synaptic
[10:13] <jonathon_> Could not download all repository indexes
[10:13] <jonathon_> The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
[10:13] <FloodBot1> jonathon_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:14] <jonathon_> Network is fine, Obviously. And I believe the Repo addresses are correct
[10:14] <auronandace> jonathon: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:14] <A_J> okie KM0201
[10:15] <KM0201> A_J: add this...  http://pastebin.com/nR4uBCR5
[10:15] <jonathon_> Lubuntu 11.04
[10:15] <auronandace> jonathon_: do you have any ppa's installed?
[10:16] <jonathon_> Not sure. How would I find out?
[10:16] <A_J> done KM0201
[10:16] <KM0201> A_J: save, and restart... now listen.. if it doesn't mount (it should)... it'll tell you there's an error, and to hit a key to skip mounting... then come back here, and i'll try to figure out the problem.
[10:16] <jonathon_> O.o
[10:17] <jonathon_> Nevermind, It decided to work now
[10:17] <jonathon_> Thanks anyways
[10:17] <bastidrazor> A_J: you do know its already mounted on /media/Date Drive ..
[10:17] <A_J> okie KM0201 . bastidrazor it is now
[10:17] <A_J> brb
[10:17]  * A_J will brb after reboot
[10:17] <bastidrazor> A_J: you don't have to reboot to mount the drive.
[10:18] <Girly-Girl> Are there any controler and CPU downclock/ overclock tools on Ubuntu
[10:18] <bastidrazor> A_J: umount /media/Data\ Drive  , then sudo mount -a  ..that will give errors too if somethign is wrong
[10:18] <KM0201> bastidrazor: pay attention, he's tryign to get itt o mount during boot.. thus the reason for the fstab editing
[10:18] <bastidrazor> KM0201: i am paying attention. sudo mount -a will do the same thing.
[10:19] <bastidrazor> KM0201: if sudo mount -a fails then restarting isn't going to help since it won't mount anyway
[10:19] <jonathon_> Anyone know how I can edit the GRUB list?
[10:19] <KM0201> i see what you're saying
[10:19] <KM0201> i've never used sudo mount -a   good tip.
[10:21] <A_J_> KM0201: it's yet not booted now what
[10:21] <auronandace> !grub2 | jonathon_
[10:22] <KM0201> A_J: just let it boot... but bastidrazor is right, sudo mount -a would have worked fine.
[10:22] <jonathon_> That didn't help
[10:22] <auronandace> jonathon_: it didn't help because you didn't read it, it is documentation for grub2
[10:23] <KM0201> A_J_: hit "escape".. and see if there's a message to skip mounting
[10:23] <A_J_> nop
[10:23] <KM0201> A_J_: ok, just let it continue booting, see if it boots up...
[10:24] <A_J_> okie KM0201 how much time should i wait
[10:24] <KM0201> it really shouldn't take that long
[10:24] <KM0201> and you're not seeing a messag eto "hit S to skip" or somethng like that?
[10:24] <A_J_> no KM0201 looks like it's hung
[10:24] <ghufran> hi. i am having problems in internet connectivity.. i am behind a proxy but i've set my proxy settings and i can access internet in firefox. I also set the same proxy settings as "global" but i still cant make it work in the terminal
[10:25] <ghufran> any ideas?
[10:25] <KM0201> A_J_: ok, restart.. and choose recovery mode
[10:25] <A_J_> how do i get the selection screen KM0201
[10:25] <A_J_> for mode
[10:26] <KM0201> um, hang on ... right ctrl i think (just keep hitting during boot).. lemme check
[10:26] <bastidrazor> A_J_: hold shift after POST
[10:27] <A_J_> nvm KM0201 it booted after a reboot
[10:27] <KM0201> A_J_: oh ok.. wellt hats weird
[10:27] <KM0201> did it auto mount?
[10:27] <A_J_> thanks blast_hardcheese
[10:28] <A_J_> yes KM0201 done
[10:28] <A_J_> thank you
[10:28] <KM0201> ok
[10:28] <KM0201> i'll have to remember that sudo mount -a    didn't know that
[10:28] <A_J_> should do an another reboot to check ? KM0201
[10:28] <Ben64> !best > Ben64
[10:28] <empity> is there anything bad that can happen upgrading from an Ubuntu 9.04
[10:28] <empity>          to a ubuntu 10.04 Server LTS?
[10:28] <A_J_> what does sudo mount -a do ?
[10:28] <empity> any way I can do a rollback in case something goes wrong?
[10:29] <bastidrazor> empity: no. once you upgrade, its final
[10:29] <KM0201> A_J_: naa, unmount it with sudo umount /media/Data
[10:29] <Tm_T> empity: you cannot do such upgrade directly (without problems atleast) and no, you cannot roll back
[10:29] <KM0201> then sudo mount -a
[10:29] <doguito> Hey guys/a, which software should I install for java programming?
[10:29] <jesus_> install
[10:29] <Tm_T> empity: you can upgrade one version at a time ofcourse, which I believe is the supported way
[10:30] <jesus_> netbeans
[10:30] <curiousx> doguito: Netbeans
[10:30] <auronandace> empity: the only way to rollback would be to restore a backup
[10:30] <jesus_> Netbeans is for ava/C/C++ .....
[10:30] <jesus_> java*
[10:30] <A_J_> doguito: Eclipse
[10:30] <A_J_> working well KM0201 thank you
[10:31] <KM0201> no problem, not sure why it hung on the first boot thoug, weird
[10:31] <doguito> curiousx, A_J_: so..., netbeans,eclipse....
[10:31] <schreber> Is there an easy way to set up simple language switching say if I have a system set up using English as the default but at time wish to input/type in say German or some other langauge?
[10:31] <curiousx> yes
[10:31] <jesus_> yes
[10:32] <dai> heya im back!
[10:32] <A_J_> KM0201: one more question if you don't mind
[10:32] <KM0201> A_J_: sure
[10:32] <dai> I hit a snag... I can't create an additional partition because I have exceeded the amount of primary partitions, is there a way to increase the limit of primary partitions ?
[10:33] <A_J_> well it's my vlc player, i keep my ubuntu pc on for weeks at a time, after a few days the video stop's showing only the audio. any clue why
[10:33] <KM0201> A_J_: i have no clue on that one..
[10:33] <A_J_> KM0201: lol no1 does
[10:33] <A_J_> what do you use for video KM0201
[10:34] <KM0201> A_J: gnome mplayer *usually*... but sometimes vlc..
[10:34] <auronandace> dai: no, you're meant to use logical partitions (within an extended partition)
[10:34] <A_J_> thing is i have a slow processer, so for hd i need to rely on vdpau, so i use smplayer, but it laggs at jitters once in a while
[10:35] <KM0201> hmm
[10:35] <A_J> apparently u need dual core for hd
[10:36] <A_J> sm players jitters often spoil a movie
[10:36] <dai> @auronandace I tried gentoo's advice to install Win 7 and Ubuntu on separate partitions and to create another ntfs partition that both OS can access but using gparted I can't create a partition with the rest of my allocated space because i would exceed 4 primary partitions :/
[10:36] <bastidrazor> A_J: i use "mplayer -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts fast:skiploopfilter=all" for HD movies on this weak laptop
[10:37] <A_J> bastidrazor: my mplayer has never ever worked
[10:37] <bastidrazor> A_J: smplayer IS mplayer
[10:38] <A_J> bastidrazor: so in sm player i would do what
[10:38] <dungkcna> dungkcna
[10:39] <auronandace> dai: then you need to delete some partitions to make room
[10:39] <empity> auronandace: ok well then I think we should do something like: complete backup of the machine, upgrade one version at a time
[10:39] <Ascavasaion> I bought a Blackberry today and was wondering here if anyone could help me to get contacts and SMSes/MMSes off my old Nokia E63 and onto this Blackberry 9300 3G Curve.  Is there software in Ubuntu to do this?
[10:40] <auronandace> dai: linux and an ntfs storage partition can be put in an extended partition, windows needs a primary
[10:40] <bastidrazor> A_J: smplayer is a front-end for mplayer. i'm not sure that syntax will work.
[10:40] <empity> and if something goes wrong we can still rollbcak
[10:40] <sharpshooter> hai all !! I got a problem with aircrack-ng in ubuntu , when I use aireplay-ng command it shows like this 'mon0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel' please help me to fix this !
[10:40] <dai> @auronandace can I turn my linux partitions into logical instead ?
[10:40] <auronandace> dai: you'd need to reinstall
[10:41] <dai> how do i reply to you automatically? i like the beep lol
[10:41] <auronandace> dai: but yeah, the linux partitions should be logical
[10:42] <dai> is it possible to make the linux ext4 /boot partition logical?
[10:42] <auronandace> empity: i usually just backup my data and fresh install the os (i never bother backing up my os)
[10:43] <A_J> bastidrazor: lol it worked
[10:44] <A_J> but it has no options
[10:45] <auronandace> dai: sure
[10:46] <Error404NotFound> If i am using a script to scp a file from a server, ssh asks me to add its host key with a '(yes/no)' prompt. How would i skip that? tried yes | scp user@host:~/filename . , and even with echo yes | scp user@host:~/filename . but no use.
[10:46] <dai> would ubuntu still run with a "/boot"logical type partition instead of a primary one?
[10:47] <empity> auronandace: well the problem is that I didn't install this machine, but it's a server installed long time ago by someone who is not here anymore
[10:47] <empity> hard to tell if there is some hidden stuff which might be deleted in case of problems
[10:47] <empity> and it shouldn't be
[10:48] <auronandace> dai: yes
[10:48] <Error404NotFound> dai: depends on your BIOS, usually i would keep /boot off logical as well as lvm.
[10:48] <sharpshooter> hai all !! I got a problem with aircrack-ng in ubuntu , when I use aireplay-ng command it shows like this 'mon0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel' please help me to fix this !
[10:49] <dai> I'll try reformating again :3
[10:49] <dhruvasagar> Hi, I have switched to Gnome in Ubuntu Natty, how do I get the app global menu in gnome ?
[10:50] <Ascavasaion> I bought a Blackberry today and was wondering here if anyone could help me to get contacts and SMSes/MMSes off my old Nokia E63 and onto this Blackberry 9300 3G Curve.  Is there software in Ubuntu to do this?
[10:51] <auronandace> empity: i don't know what to suggest in that case
[10:52] <thecaptain2000> hi, how do I get a file using command line ftp from an url? (I need to do remote downloading) I saw there is a -u option but it is just for uploading
[10:53] <jrib> thecaptain2000: why not use wget?
[10:53] <KM0201> or just use filezilla/
[10:53] <thecaptain2000> jrib: ...b ecause I did not know it existed :)
[10:54] <ksinkar> hello people, I am trying to set up the locale on ubuntu from POSIX to US by the command:-
[10:54] <ksinkar> sudo /usr/sbin/locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
[10:54]  * KM0201 didn't know wget could do ftp
[10:55] <ksinkar> sudo /usr/sbin/update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[10:55] <ksinkar> after this i am logging out and logging in
[10:55] <ksinkar> but the changes are not being effected
[10:57] <seneca> how to uninstall instant client on ubuntu
[10:57] <jrib> ksinkar: what is in /etc/default/locale?
[10:57] <jrib> ksinkar: and what version of ubuntu?
[10:58] <ksinkar> jrib: ubuntu 10.04
[10:58] <jrib> ksinkar: you probably have LANG set in /etc/environment then
[10:58] <uwesch> Hi
[10:59] <uwesch> Is someone here who speaks german?
[11:00] <somsip> !de | uwesch
[11:00] <ksinkar> jrib: i just checked the /etc/default/locale and it has the contents LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[11:00] <uwesch> thx
[11:01] <nekto0n> hi! does anyone knows if ubuntu will have gdm-3.2 in oneiric?
[11:02] <Arnold> nekto0n: gdm (3.0.4-0ubuntu11) oneiric is the newest version of it so far.
[11:03] <jrib> ksinkar: and /etc/environment?
[11:03] <jrib> ksinkar: it should have LANGUAGE set there iirc
[11:03] <nekto0n> Arnold: that's right, but other gnome3 parts are 3.2, gdm is one of the outdated now :(
[11:04] <gigasoft_> is there ubuntu for intel 64 bit available, and
[11:05] <Arnold> nekto0n: indeed, and I can't seem to see if providing a 3.2.0 version of it is planned before release or not.
[11:05] <ksinkar> jrib: no it only has  the path
[11:05] <Arnold> nekto0n: also, Oneiric questions go to #ubuntu+1 until it's released :P
[11:05] <nekto0n> Arnold: oh, that's right, i'd go there
[11:06] <nekto0n> *come back in two weeks :)
[11:06] <Arnold> Haha
[11:06] <somsip> gigasoft_: yes. and....?
[11:07] <gigasoft_> somsip, can you give me link to it
[11:07] <seneca> how to uninstall instant client on ubuntu
[11:07] <somsip> gigasoft_: er....http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[11:08] <gigasoft_> somsip, thanks
[11:08] <th0r> seneca: how did you install it?
[11:08] <jrib> ksinkar: when you log in, what is the value of LANG?
[11:08] <oratred> Is there any package for ubuntu/linux which can allow easy to use functionality like ammyy-admin http://www.ammyy.com/en/index.html ?
[11:09] <adammw111> Nautilus on my Ubuntu installation keeps crashing. gdb says it's in gconf_client_get() from libgconf-2.so.4 Any help?
[11:10] <ksinkar> jrib: the PATH variable is defined in /etc/environment
[11:10] <ksinkar> jrib: the value of LANG is blank
[11:10] <ksinkar> on typing locale I get LANG=
[11:10] <ksinkar> thats it
[11:11] <jrib> ksinkar: how do you log in?
[11:11] <ksinkar> jrib: it is a remote server
[11:11] <ksinkar> jrib: i login using ssh
[11:12] <MonkeyDust> oratred: maybe this link helps http://www.linuxlinks.com/article/20090529205342507/RemoteDisplay.html
[11:13] <jrib> ksinkar: ah, this is why :)
[11:13] <ksinkar> jrib: so do you know the solution?
[11:13] <jrib> ksinkar: do this: grep -i AcceptEnv /etc/ssh/sshd_config    do you see what is likely the issue?
[11:14] <jrib> ksinkar: what is LANG on the client machine?
[11:15] <yacc> ah, isn't that jolly, running apport with a hung filesystem hangs apport, ...
[11:17] <oratred> MonkeyDust: But they are all basically VNC? Could you link me to ubuntu documentation for basic information for the same?
[11:18] <MonkeyDust> oratred: try this https://help.ubuntu.com/search.html?cof=FORID%3A9&cx=003883529982892832976%3Ae2vwumte3fq&ie=UTF-8&q=remote&sa=Search
[11:18] <ksinkar> jrib: en_US.UTF-8 is the LANG on the client machine
[11:19] <ksinkar> jrib: btw the grep thing did not work

[11:23] <jstoone> Hey everyone I just installed Ubuntu on my new labtop and it has the Nvidia GForce GT540M and I just installed the propriatary drivers, and when I then rebooted it said that I don't meet the hardware requirements for Unity. Any quick fix/force to get unity back?
[11:23] <jstoone> It forces me to run classic, which I do not want.

[11:24] <napster> What is the best way to install python-django version 1.3 on my ubuntu 11.04?
[11:24] <VxQf>  ...That is my real question?
[11:25] <phlak_user> napster: the 3rd result in a google search returns this -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Django
[11:25] <napster> no
[11:25] <napster> I was thinking about something via apt
[11:26] <thecaptain2000> hi, how do I change the default permission setting I write my files with? (would like to change it in 700)
[11:26] <farhad2161> i installed a vpn server with "sudo apt-get install pptpd" but i do not want to use default vpn port,how can i change it?
[11:26] <phlak_user> napster: sudo apt-get install python-django
[11:26] <phlak_user> !info python-django
[11:26] <VxQf> napster, it should be in APT?
[11:26] <napster> I need 1.3
[11:26] <napster> is there any ppa?
[11:27] <farhad2161> i installed a vpn server with "sudo apt-get install pptpd" but i do not want to use default vpn port,how can i change it?
[11:28] <MonkeyDust> napster: it seems 1.2.5 is the katest version
[11:28] <MonkeyDust> *latest
[11:28] <napster> hmm
[11:29] <phlak_user> farhad2161: are you able to change it at the client end?
[11:30] <enchilado> VxQf: so if someone had answered "yes, I am familiar with those sorts of programmes", you would not have gone on to ask another question?
[11:30] <farhad2161> phlak_user: i am using win7 as a client and i think i can
[11:34] <usr13> VxQf: Yes
[11:35] <th0r> VxQf: yes, I have tried several alternatives
[11:36] <VxQf> Sorry, I thought the question implied I wanted to know what they were.
[11:36] <th0r> VxQf: see...you did have a real question. Try gkrellm
[11:37] <VxQf> I have a real problem with people being jerks. ~_~
[11:37] <th0r> VxQf: that'll get you lots of resposnes
[11:37] <VxQf> ugh.
[11:38] <VxQf> At least no one mentioned mgm
[11:39] <The_BROS> What is the best Image viewer can be used as default? Is it Eye of Gnome good?
[11:39] <AdvoWork> hi there, the top command has shown: load average: 2.42, 2.16, 1.32 im assuming that the 5 and 15 minute times arent too good?
[11:39] <Pici> !best | The_BROS
[11:41] <The_BROS> ubottu: how to use best bot?
[11:42] <glebihan> The_BROS, type "/join #ubuntu-bots"
[11:42] <KM0201> The_BROS: "/join #ubuntu best-bots" w/o quotes
[11:42] <KM0201> oops, ubuntu-bots
[11:42] <th0r> AdvoWork: are those cpu load averages? There will always be 2% or more in idle load. If you monitor it regularly you will develop a feel for what is normal for your system. I personally would be tickled if this netbook had those numbers
[11:43] <farhad2161> i installed a vpn server with "sudo apt-get install pptpd" but i do not want to use default vpn port,how can i change it?
[11:43] <KM0201> farhad2161: my first thought, would be to look in /etc  and see fi there is a pptpd.conf
[11:44] <dr_willis> farhad2161:  Just a guess. but i bet theres a pptpd config file in /etc/ somewhere and the man pages for pptpd mention it i would imagine
[11:45] <Calinou> the late bros, the default. >_<
[11:45] <farhad2161> dr_willis: yes there is,but nothing about port :(
[11:46] <phlak_user> farhad2161: i dont think you can change the default port
[11:47] <bambanx> what cool software for record and mixing effect music we have guys?
[11:47] <phlak_user> farhad2161: the other way to do this is to put the vpn server behind a router and forward pptp connections from some other port on wan side to 1723 on lan side to the pptp server
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> bambanx: try mixxx, but better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:48] <bambanx> thanks Monkey

[11:54] <galerien> Hello everyone, I'm using ubuntu 11.10 right now, the beta i know, and i would like to get rid of the botom bar with all my open programs and such, as I want to use cairo-dock. Before, I just had to right click on it and choose to hide it, but here it doesn't work, anyone can help me ? thanks in advance
[11:55] <MonkeyDust> galerien: wrong channel, type /j #ubuntu+1
[11:55] <galerien> MonkeyDust, ok, thanks
[11:55] <jrib> ksinkar: you should have the client send lang and server accept
[11:55] <morbidwar> hello, can somebody explain how the vinagre knows what pc's are up and ready to make a vnc connection, does the vino server broadcast it's availability to the network
[11:56] <galerien> carpediembaby, You might want to look at "frozenway", it's slow if you don't pay but reliable
[11:56] <jrib> ksinkar: i'm not sure why you say the grep thing did not work; I checked on a 10.04 machine and "AcceptEnv LANG LC_*" is in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[11:57] <carpediembaby> galerien: is it some sort of tunnel? i am not sure if i should need one .. because i am talking to you from the same machine
[11:57] <carpediembaby> its just that i can't use anything from the terminal ..
[11:58] <galerien> carpediembaby, yes, but I had the same problem at work because all aptitude/apt ports were closed on the company wifi, frozeway helped me

[12:13] <impi> jrib, thanks man, im just using your suggestion to see if i can find this sucker, thank you for answering
[12:13] <The_BROS> How to uninstall EOG, but not to delete desktop? Want to change EOG to gThumb.
[12:13] <jrib> impi: you should use sed to just replace all of them
[12:13] <ajin> BluesKaj: hi
[12:13] <qrq> Poland had their own Linux :P
[12:14] <qrq> KateOS
[12:14] <BluesKaj> hi ajin
[12:15] <ajin> qrq: oh, that's good! But i dont over-gragmentation would do any good to LINUX itself;-)
[12:15] <Adam_> Im after updating gnome on my laptop and now i cant access anything, it startsup to a prompt :(
[12:15] <ajin> qrq: sorry, fragmentatation
[12:17] <phlak_user> impi: my solution still works; but if all you want to do is replace the // with \\ use sed or %s inside a vim session
[12:17] <ajin> qrq: several ditros would be enough,
[12:18] <phlak_user> The_BROS: the trick is to change file associations; not uninstall eog
[12:23] <KM0201> what's EOG?
[12:23] <ikonia> KM0201: in what respect ?
[12:23] <The_BROS> phlak_user: how to use the trick?
[12:24] <KM0201> i figured it was an abbreviation for an app.. was drawing a blank
[12:24] <phlak_user> KM0201: Eye Of Gnome
[12:24] <phlak_user> !info eog
[12:24] <KM0201> oh.
[12:24] <KM0201> well, can't you just uninstall it?
[12:24] <KM0201> if you don't want it anyway

[12:26] <empity> ok my distribution is EOL
[12:26] <empity> I should be, however, still able to install packages right?
[12:26] <clarinet> Does anyone know how to boot Ubuntu 10.10 without display manager?
[12:26] <clarinet> Just like runlevel 3 in Red Hat.
[12:26] <KM0201> empity: no, because when a distro is EOL, the online repositories typically close
[12:26] <phlak_user> The_BROS: this could show the way -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1757867
[12:26] <ikonia> you can use old repos
[12:26] <empity> KM0201: ok makes sense
[12:26] <ikonia> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[12:26] <Snicksie> you can open an cli clarinet, with ctrl-alt-F(1 to 6 are possibilities)
[12:26] <ikonia> empity: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[12:27] <ikonia> empity: there should still be active repos there
[12:27] <empity> ikonia: good to know, thanks
[12:27] <The_BROS> phlak_user: thanx. But how about uninstall EOG? Is it imposible?
[12:27] <KM0201> The_BROS: why wouldn't it be? sudo apt-get remove eog
[12:28] <clarinet> Snicksie, Yeah, I know that. But I want to enter cli every time I boot the OS.
[12:28] <MonkeyDust> The_BROS: try sudo apt-get purge eog
[12:28] <The_BROS> KM0201: No. After that my desctop will dissapeare
[12:28] <KM0201> The_BROS:.. what?
[12:29] <empity> looks very nice,but I only find the ubuntu installer packages
[12:29] <pvgrif> can anyone please tell me how to make evolution not download every single email on hotmail?
[12:29] <The_BROS> There are linked packeges
[12:29] <empity> nothing regarding really old packages
[12:29] <MonkeyDust> The_BROS: don't worry if it will so called remove ubuntu-desktop
[12:29] <pvgrif> i just want it to download the unread ones, not every single one since 2003
[12:29] <KM0201> The_BROS: ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, it's not going to actually uninstall your desktop
[12:30] <KM0201> that package really needs to be renamed, lot of newbs make that istake
[12:30] <D_Russ> does anyone know if there is a way to install desktop widgets or gadgets on natty?
[12:30] <clarinet> Can anyone tell me how to boot Ubuntu 10.10 without display manager? Just like runlevel 3 in Red Hat?
[12:31] <jrib> clarinet: why?
[12:31] <ksinkar> do we have anything like dpkg-reconfigure for locale selection?
[12:31] <The_BROS> That is what I see on the screen: The following packages will be REMOVED:  eog* ubuntu-desktop* ubuntustudio-desktop* Will averything be normal after that?
[12:31] <jrib> ksinkar: did you see what I told you?
[12:32] <clarinet> I install the whole OS to my flash disk.
[12:32] <clarinet> may be it can boot faster than GUI mode.
[12:32] <ksinkar> jrib: well it tried but i didn't work
[12:32] <KM0201> The_BROS: how many mb does it say its uninstalling?
[12:32] <ksinkar> jrib: for setting my timezone i did dpkg-reconfigure tzdate
[12:32] <clarinet> because sometime I don't need GUI.
[12:32] <jrib> ksinkar: tried what exactly?
[12:32] <glitchd> need some xorg assistance pls
[12:33] <The_BROS> KM0201: After this operation, 1.729 kB disk space will be freed.
[12:33] <bastidrazor> clarinet: in /etc/default/grub add "text" to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"  then sudo update-grub
[12:33] <ksinkar> the grep command that you were talking about
[12:33] <KM0201> The_BROS: there's you're answer.. the ubuntu desktop is gonna be a LOT more than just 1.7kb
[12:33] <jrib> KM0201: the grep command only gives you information
[12:33] <ksinkar> jrib: that is what i tried and I got no response from the terminal
[12:33] <clarinet> bastidrazor, I'll try it, thanks.
[12:33] <The_BROS> KM0201: Thanx a lot, Bro. I will try
[12:33] <KM0201> jrib: i think your tab key prematurely went off
[12:33] <jrib> ksinkar: pastebin your server's /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[12:33] <KM0201> lol
[12:33] <glitchd> do i need more than one display driver outlined in xorg.conf?
[12:34] <jrib> KM0201: *nod* :D
[12:34] <glitchd> or just the one i use?
[12:35] <pvgrif> how can i make evolution only download new emails?
[12:35] <ksinkar> jrib: well it does not have any entries for LANG
[12:35] <m1r> hello, Ubuntu 10.04 fresh install. sound freeze problem with 00:09.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP73 High Definition Audio (rev a1).
[12:35] <m1r> any tips how to fix this ?
[12:36] <jrib> ksinkar: for me to help you, you need to pastebin that fiule
[12:36] <jrib> ksinkar: you don't have to of course
[12:36] <ksinkar> jrib: now i get what you are trying to tell me
[12:36] <ksinkar> but i don't want a configuration like that
[12:36] <jrib> ksinkar: that *is* the default configuration
[12:36] <ksinkar> the client should not be able to pass locale environment variables
[12:37] <jrib> ksinkar: if that's what you want, then remove or comment the line in sshd_config
[12:37] <ksinkar> jrib: i have removed that line from my config file. it is there in the backup that I had taken
[12:37] <antismap> m1r : if you use only one sound card, you could try to uninstall pulseaudio
[12:37] <ksinkar> jrib: so how do i set my locale
[12:38] <ksinkar> jrib: back to square one?
[12:38] <jrib> ksinkar: have you restarted the sshd server since modifying the config file?
[12:39] <ksinkar> jrib: yes
[12:39] <glitchd> do i need more than one display driver outlined in xorg.conf?
[12:40] <eiarai> join #hacklabturku@IRCnet
[12:41] <glitchd> do i need more than one display driver outlined in xorg.conf?
[12:41] <m1r> antismap: yes, i have only one soundcard, how would i go with "safe" uninstall of pulse audio ?
[12:43] <maxximus> anybody have issues with vnc when screensaver kicks in?
[12:44] <antismap> m1r : well i don't really remember each step, i found some tutorial online explaining it step by step. This could maybe fix your problem, but pulseaudio is not always the source of the problems
[12:45] <jrib> ksinkar: I commented out the line and indeed LANG does not get set.  Ask #openssh if there is some nice way.  If not, just add it to /etc/profile

[13:00] <Tophan> to avoid mistakes
[13:00] <Deihmos> how can I tell if graphics acceleration is working? the UI is so laggy
[13:00] <Tophan> rm -rf is serious buisness duffman
[13:00] <Tophan> proceed with caution
[13:01]  * phlak_user thinks sudo rm -fr is a killer
[13:01] <duffman> Tophan: right, it is. but doesn't your method incite going up a line changing the last folder and hitting enter without looking too much?

[13:18] <codefriar> however, it's not runniung every hour
[13:18] <cvam> I tried software-center.it says "segmentation fault". I've removed thunderbird from synaptic . But it's not complete.

[13:18] <ikonia> codefriar: can you show me the crontab line ?
[13:18] <codefriar> 0 0,6,12,18 * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'backup perform -t jiradb'
[13:19] <ikonia> codefriar: that's doesn't look very valid
[13:19] <ikonia> codefriar: keep in mind I don't know your personal environment
[13:19] <codefriar> fairly generic / stock ubuntu install
[13:19] <dr_willis> dont you need to give full paths in cron normally. the -c /full/path/to/the/thing
[13:20] <codefriar> ikonia: what doesn't look valid?
[13:21] <ikonia> codefriar: why you are launching bash, the command "backup perform" etc etc
[13:22] <ikonia> codefriar: keep in mind you may need to use full paths if the default shell enviornment isn't setup to deal with this.
[13:24] <codefriar> ikonia: so I should just call backup directly with the full path?
[13:24] <ikonia> codefriar: that may be a better option
[13:25] <ikonia> codefriar: I'm not familiar with the command "backup" so don't know it's behaviour
[13:25] <codefriar> is there a way to test crontabs/
[13:25] <GirlyGirl> How can I configure the Display Off function key on the ASUS EeePC 1005ha?
[13:26] <mekwall> hi! I'm trying to figure out why ssh is taking ages to connect to a remote server... it takes about 30 seconds
[13:26] <Deihmos> GirlyGirl, how does ubuntu perform on that netbook? I have one and the performance was ass compared to win 7. Is there anything you did
[13:27] <codefriar> ikonia: how's this look: 0 0,6,12,18 * * * /usr/local/bin/backup perform -t jiradb
[13:27] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: I run Kubuntu from 9.10 and up, it performed fine, just 11.04 can very slow graphics issues but then it was fixed by updating to kde 4.7 series from kubuntu backports
[13:28] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: Right now it manages kwin desktop effects fine on unity it lags sometimes though
[13:28] <ikonia> codefriar: to me, that looks better
[13:28] <codefriar> ikonia: is there a way to test?
[13:28] <ikonia> run it
[13:29] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: But I have upgraded the RAM to 2 GB and its the Xp netbook not win 7
[13:29] <Deihmos> I have the same netbook with same memory upgrade and I found that ubuntu was really slow on it
[13:29] <codefriar> ikonia: how can I run y crontab? and how can I test that it will execute @ the right time?
[13:29] <Deihmos> mine came with xp but upgraded to 7
[13:29] <touson> hey guys, can anyone help me with an xorg.conf issue?
[13:30] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: The only things I "did" is use KDE and tweak some qt rendering settings
[13:30] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: so can't be of much help
[13:31] <Deihmos> you found ubuntu to perform better than xp ?
[13:31] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: Also the netbook runs better with swap off than on I don't know why
[13:31] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: Ubuntu no, graphics lag, Kubuntu yes (note some previous KDE versions had quirks)
[13:32] <GirlyGirl> Deihmos: But XFCE is fine as well
[13:32] <phlak_user> codefriar: set the time of execution to 1 min from now?
[13:32] <Deihmos> i never liked the look of kubuntu

[13:35] <touson> Hey people I could really use some help with configuring my xorg.conf on a G4 install
[13:36] <spencer> I recently purchase a Virgin broadband2go modem for my laptop.  No luck getting to run. I have ubuntu 10.04 and located in the states. Can you folks make a suggestion what will work?
[13:38] <Willis420> i had trouble with wireless internet on 10.04 also, but it works fine with 11.04
[13:38] <touson> quit
[13:38] <Willis420> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[13:38] <Willis420> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[13:38] <Willis420> i get this trying to install java
[13:39] <spencer> Willis420, what device did you use?

[13:39] <mbutubuntu> hello folks, I've discovered that in every shell I open the http_proxy enviroment variable is automatically set with an IP:PORT... I've never added that variable neither configured a main proxy for the OS... is there any conffile in /etc to disable this enviroment variable? thanks
[13:40] <phlak_user> Willis420: did you use sudo?
[13:40] <mbutubuntu> [Is it possible ti could be a BUG, or a malicious software?]
[13:40] <jrib> mbutubuntu: you probably installed a package that set it.  Check /etc/environment maybe
[13:41] <Willis420> installing for the android-sdk
[13:41] <mbutubuntu> jrib, no, it /etc/enviroment only PATH: is setted up
[13:41] <mbutubuntu>  can manually disable it... but how to discover who/what have setted up that variable?!
[13:41] <tattus> Hello everyone
[13:42] <tattus> Could anyone tell me the recommended size to swap partition ?
[13:42] <ikonia> tattus: there is no recommended size, it depends on your setup
[13:42] <qrq> 2xRAM
[13:43] <tattus> hm...
[13:43] <usr13> tattus: Samme size as ram or more, as much as 2x
[13:43] <MonkeyDust> i have no swap
[13:43] <usr13> MonkeyDust: We are sorry to hear that.
[13:43] <tattus> So, I have 4gb
[13:44] <tattus> 8 gb ?
[13:44] <tattus> so I should put like
[13:44] <usr13> 8G is good
[13:44] <ikonia> tattus: I would say no more than 6 max
[13:44] <ikonia> unless you are using your machine VERY heavey AND you're planning to use swap/hibernate
[13:45] <ikonia> tattus: are you planning to use suspend/hibernate ?
[13:45] <tattus> yes
[13:45] <tattus> I frequently use hibernate
[13:45] <usr13> 8G would be good, I would say...
[13:45] <tattus> first time I intalled I putted 2 gb
[13:45] <ikonia> tattus: ok, so unless you plan to thrash your machine for sustained periods of time, I'd say no more than 6GB
[13:45] <tattus> and it was taking so long
[13:45] <tattus> to get start after hibernate...
[13:46] <tattus> is it bad to hibernate ?
[13:46] <qrq> Jesus.....
[13:46] <usr13> tattus: It just takes a while.
[13:46] <GirlyGirl> So any solution for two function keys on eeePC 1005ha. 1. Display Off does not work 2. Touchpad off disables the touchpad but the indicator light does not come on

[13:53] <dean> Hi all I have deleted my network manager icon on my panel could someone tell me how I can get it back at all please?
[13:54] <usr13> dean: Alt-F2  network-manager
[13:54] <touson> usr13: just installing pastebinit
[13:55] <dean> usr13, No such file or directory I press alt + f2 typed in network-manager and it came up with an error
[13:55] <usr13> dean: (Hold Alt key while hitting F2 then type in   "network-manager" without quotes.)
[13:55] <MonkeyDust> dean: try alt-f2 nm-applet
[13:55] <usr13> and hit enter
[13:56] <usr13> dean: As MonkeyDust suggests, run   nm-applet
[13:56] <usr13> (I stand corrected.)  ... I think.
[13:56] <telemare> anyone knows how to burn .dmg files into a dvd from linux

[13:56] <odinsbane> Does anybody here get a filenot found when trying to execute 32bit files with 64bit ubuntu?
[13:56] <ikonia> touson: they are apple package files
[13:56] <ikonia> odinsbane: that won't work
[13:56] <kernkraft> woon't work
[13:57] <ikonia> odinsbane: unless the library is dynamically linked to a multi-lib enviornment
[13:57] <Snicksie> telemare, i think you can rename them to .iso and afterwards just burning, but i'm not 100% sure :)
[13:57] <usr13> touson: Do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file now?   (ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf )
[13:57] <odinsbane> ikonia: I have been told that it does work.  I have also seen a 32 bit file be executed on a 64bit system.
[13:57] <Snicksie> hm, nope telemare, but you can use a dmg2iso converter and burn them afterwards :)
[13:58] <telemare> i cant find that app
[13:58] <touson> usr13: here's my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/X6ubpuC9
[13:58] <ikonia> odinsbane: I've just said 32bit files can work if they are dynamically linked to a multi-lib environment....yours sounds like it is not, or is missing the 32bit libs
[13:58] <odinsbane> ikonia: So, are you saying that would produce a 'file not found'
[13:58] <kernkraft> I install Ubuntu entreprise server but when i try to login it don't work
[13:58] <ikonia> odinsbane: yes
[13:59] <ikonia> kernkraft: define "doesn't work"
[13:59] <usr13> touson: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old
[13:59] <odinsbane> ikonia: what if the file came with static libs, that were also 32bit?
[13:59] <kernkraft> I'm french it's difficult ..
[13:59] <ikonia> odinsbane: it depends on how it's setup
[13:59] <ikonia> kernkraft: maybe try #ubuntu-fr ?
[13:59] <usr13> touson: And then:  sudo service gdm restart
[14:00] <kernkraft> When i install it there is just a mail to configure
[14:00] <touson> usr13: I logged into the main console (not into X) and ran X -configure as root.  It  created an xorg.conf.new file in /root, which I then copied to /etc/X11/xorg.conf after updating it with the display modes
[14:00] <kernkraft> And this mail can activate other user account
[14:01] <usr13> odinsbane: You will need to build a multilib system in order to run 32bit apps on a 64bit system.
[14:01] <odinsbane> ikonia: how about this 32bit program which requires glfw, glfw is 64bit. Would that get a file not found?
[14:01] <ikonia> odinsbane: correct
[14:01] <oYdVeey> Help! my keyboard's acting real slow, any ideas?
[14:01] <usr13> touson: Did you try running it without an xorg.conf file?
[14:01] <oYdVeey> It's fine when I was logging in
[14:01] <dean> usr13, I typed in the command that you and MonkeyDust gave me but I am still not getting an icon I checked in Synaptic and it is showing I have network manager installed
[14:01] <oYdVeey> was*
[14:02] <oYdVeey> But then it just acts real slow after I logged in, and my mouse works fine
[14:02] <usr13> dean: What version of Ubuntu do you have installed?
[14:02] <usr13> dean: What command did you run?
[14:02] <odinsbane> Thanks for the heads up.
[14:03] <kernkraft> Is there an IRC channel for Ubuntu-fr
[14:03] <kernkraft> ?
[14:03] <usr13> !fr | kernkraft
[14:03] <kernkraft> cool
[14:03] <kernkraft> ty
[14:03] <dean> usr13, I have 10.04 I ran nm-applet first then network-manager afterwards
[14:03] <oYdVeey> Guys... c'mon, help :(
[14:03] <touson> usr13: Just tried what you said and it's still the same i.e. only 800x600 available

[14:19] <Milossh> hello, how can I add a python script as a ubuntu terminal command?
[14:19] <sattu94> Hi, i just added the gnome3 ppa from launchpad.
[14:19] <sattu94> and installed gnome3-session package. on my ubuntu 11.04 install.
[14:19] <sattu94> For some reason when i select gnome 3 from the GDM selection menu, it just loops back to the gdm login screen.
[14:19] <user82> how can i search with a or in nautilus? (i want to find .jpg and .cr2 files in one search)
[14:20] <jrib> Milossh: put it in your ~/bin
[14:20] <Milossh> jusr ~/bin ?
[14:20] <D_Russ> anyone know where i can get some fancy fonts that will work in 11.04 and how to install them for inkscape?
[14:20] <dean> usr13, I am gonna reboot and see what happens brb
[14:20] <Milossh> jrib, you mean /bin ?
[14:20] <jrib> Milossh: no
[14:20] <Milossh> I don't have /bin in home
[14:21] <jrib> Milossh: create the "bin" directory in your home and login again
[14:21] <user82> jrib a bin in home is automatically added? did not know that yet..thanks
[14:22] <user82> (with added i mean the binaries in there are globally terminal commands)
[14:22] <Milossh> jrib, thanks. do I need to add some kind of the header in python scripts?
[14:23] <jrib> user82: it's in ubuntu's default ~/.profile (checks if ~/bin exists and adds it to path if it does)
[14:23] <oYdVeey> Okkayyyyyyy, again thanks MonkeyDust, I was dumb enough couldn't figure it out, it was right there in front of meh -.-"
[14:23] <user82> aah ok..thats what i wanted to know that it is added to the path!
[14:23] <jrib> Milossh: your python scripts should be executable and have a proper shebang line yes (e.g. #!/usr/bin/env python)
[14:23] <oYdVeey> Anyway, good luck others who are seeking helps :D
[14:23] <oYdVeey> I'm outta here
[14:23] <user82> (i usually put mine via sudo to /usr/bin)
  apt-cache search ttf
[14:24] <intellectus> repos have true type fonts
[14:24] <intellectus> any ttf fonts from anywhere should work
[14:24] <dean> usr13, No good. I have typed in terminal nm-applet and it displays an instance of nm-applet is already running and then I typed in network-manager and it displayed command not found
[14:24] <jrib> user82: yeah that's good if you want it to be available to all users though I'd suggest /usr/local/bin/ instead so that the package manager doesn't interfere and for an organizational bonus
[14:24] <aboudreault> Hi, does anyone installed successfully gnome-shell (gnome3) on ubuntu natty?

[14:43] <RTFMnow> if kernel.org is down, use mirrors or your distro's site
[14:43] <qin> sattu94: "some info"?
[14:43] <touson> hi, can anyone help?  I have a problem with my xorg.conf file
[14:43] <sattu94> auronandace: i dont care about unity, i use xmonad, just want to try out gnome3..
[14:43] <eraejorma> is there a way for me to copy the Xubuntu installation packages from one laptop to another?
[14:44] <eraejorma> The another laptop has it installed.
[14:44] <Polah> !clone | eraejorma
[14:44] <sattu94> qin: what exactly do you want from uname -a ?
[14:44] <RTFMnow> binarymutant: you may try using framebuffer X11, should have no problems, otherwise edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:44] <Olotila> dr_willis, says cant find cd in /etc/fstab or /etc mtab
[14:44] <auronandace> sattu94: i'm sure you care about "other parts of your system"
[14:44] <k4l-3l> ubottu, thank you, i will compile, because after my last upgrade my custon kernel has gone.
[14:44] <RTFMnow> try to disable anything that may cause problems with you adaptor
[14:44] <Polah> olotila: mount -t <filesystem> -o <options> /dev/devicename /mount/point
[14:44] <dr_willis> eraejorma:  you can copy over the /var/cache/apt/ dir also.  I set up an apt-cacher-ng server on my lan to cache the packages for all the network.
[14:44] <jamil> well i think its with some updates i have installed ...cuz it was perfect before
[14:45] <qin> sattu94: Well, lets put it this way: gnome3 is not supported below 11.10, and 11.10issupported in #ubuntu+1
[14:46] <eraejorma> dr_willis, Copy what to where?
[14:46] <touson> anyone?  I could really use some help
[14:46] <raven> 11.04 VPN - config not possible?
[14:46] <Olotila> Polah, I dont have the skill to fill those blanks :)
[14:46] <Polah> eraejorma, somewhere you won't format from
[14:46] <dr_willis> copy /var/cache/apt to the other pc... same location
[14:46] <Olotila> how do I get to a different partition on hd?
[14:46] <Olotila> i got some files there
[14:47] <dr_willis> !mount | Olotila
[14:47] <Olotila> cd or a different partition
[14:47] <dr_willis> Olotila:  sudo mkdir /media/stuff
[14:47] <Willis420> if i use chronium more than firefox, will it hurt to uninstall firefox?
[14:47] <macs> qin http://paste.ubuntu.com/701711/
[14:47] <dr_willis> Olotila:  sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/stuff
[14:48] <MonkeyDust> Willis420: it's what i did, so no
[14:48] <Willis420> ok thanks MonkeyDust, sorry for the noobness, lol
[14:48] <eraejorma> dr_willis, It say i dont have permissions to copy. (used nautilus under sudo, when copying(
[14:49] <MonkeyDust> we were all n00bs, once
[14:49] <Olotila> dr_willis thanks!
[14:49] <zarlino> hi all, does anybody know if/when 64bit will be the "default"?
[14:49] <touson> Can anyone help me?  I have installed ubuntu 10.04 onto an old MAC G4, but I can't get the graphics drivers working properly, it only allows me to choose a maximum of 800x600 res
[14:49] <dr_willis> eraejorma:  its best to not use nautilus as root.. easy to really mess things up.
[14:49] <dr_willis> zarlino:  i imagine not for a very long time.
[14:49] <eraejorma> Seemed the fastest way.
[14:50] <Fanfare> Q: whats the differeenze of tty1 and tty2-6? pam_fprint works for tty2-6 but not on tty1! "Could not locate any suitable fingerprints matched with available hardware"?
[14:50] <qin> macs: What does say: rfkill list
[14:50] <zarlino> dr_willis: because of flash and other closed software?
[14:51] <dr_willis> thats one good reason zarlino
[14:51] <MonkeyDust> touson: maybe this link helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[14:52] <raven> 11.04 VPN - config not possible?
[14:52] <met2443> when i do nmap scan on localhost i find port 800 pipelining. should i be worried?
[14:52] <DXBLouie> guys i've had one of my Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS machines compromised today through PHP My Admin..  i'm running the latest packages.. and i caught the attack before much damage was done, but it got me thinking, does www-data need to have /bin/sh as its shell?! are there any drawbacks to setting it to /bin/false?
[14:53] <WollyJumper> Anybody have any theories why my internet gets very slow very quickly? - i.e after re-booting the first webpage i visit  loads slow but each new site  or page load is slower than the last it's unusable after a few minutes. problem is from Lucid onwards earlier versions were fine.
[14:53] <eraejorma> dr_willis, So after i've copied it over, .. then what? How do i get the Xubuntu on for the another machine?
[14:54] <dr_willis> eraejorma:  via the package mnager
[14:54] <MonkeyDust> WollyJumper: type ps -e|grep kworker and see if it finds something => kworker is a known bug
[14:56] <eraejorma> dr_willis, seems to be working, thanks
[14:56] <eraejorma> Atleast the install seems to work
[14:57] <touson> MonkeyDust: thanks i'll take a look
[14:57] <macs> qin http://paste.ubuntu.com/701720/
[14:59] <Syco54645_work> needing some grub2 help. i currently have my server installed to a flash drive. i have a ssd that just came in today so i will be moving it to that via dd. what do i need to change in grub2 to get it to still boot?
[14:59] <qin> macs: uhm, broadcom... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[14:59] <macs> Thanks
[15:02] <scratchingmyhead> Just wondering why the software centre shows all this installed software but a menu search doesn't find it on the computer??
[15:03] <Pici> scratchingmyhead: What sort of software?
[15:04] <scratchingmyhead> I dont know,,, just trying to randomly remove a lot of software that I dont use to lighten up the sys. and I see some cool stuff I would like to check out already installed but not able to see it.
[15:04] <scratchingmyhead> Or find it on the sys
[15:04] <Pici> scratchingmyhead: Are you sure that the packages you installed actually provide graphical interfaces? Perhaps they are all cli tools.
[15:04] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  you can do 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' and tell it to install to the other hd. is one way. theres a dozen ways to get grub to install to the other hd.
[15:05] <Syco54645_work> dr_willis: it would install using dd though wouldnt it?
[15:05] <scratchingmyhead> Pici for example QTNX
[15:05] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  i wouldent use dd to install grub  from one hd to another...
[15:05] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  unless you were imageing the flash to the sdd.
[15:05] <Syco54645_work> dr_willis: i will be imaging the entire system
[15:05] <Syco54645_work> since it is all set up now
[15:05] <scratchingmyhead> Pici I see,,, so what good is it if you don't even know it is there?
[15:06] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  then dd would grab grub and everything else.
[15:06] <Pici> scratchingmyhead: It doesn't look like that installs a menu entry for whatever reason.
[15:06] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  ive done it that way befor. Installed to a 4gb flash. dd'd it to a 100gb hd.. had to then resize the fs with gparted
[15:06] <Syco54645_work> dr_willis: but grub would need to be fixed so that it actually boots right?
[15:07] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  i did not have to fix anything. other then the fs
[15:07] <scratchingmyhead> Pici there are quite a few???   thats why I'm hahaha scratchinmyhead
[15:07] <scratchingmyhead> thx
[15:07] <Syco54645_work> dr_willis: ah, good to know. hopefully it will just work then
[15:07] <dr_willis> Syco54645_work:  i was suprised at how well it worked for my test machine. :)
[15:07] <Pici> scratchingmyhead: You can do dpkg -L packagname | grep bin  to find the executable(s) for the packages you install if you can't find them otherwise.
[15:08] <Syco54645_work> well then, i guess i dont have much to do tonight other than a dd
[15:08] <Syco54645_work> dr_willis: thanks for the info
[15:09] <GTRsdk> how do I make a theme in Lucid?
[15:09] <ikonia> GTRsdk: same as any other gnome 2 based distribution
[15:09] <ikonia> gnome-look has some good information on it
[15:09] <ikonia> as does gnome.org
[15:11] <boxybrown> Hi there
[15:11] <bhavesh_> Whenever I login into ubuntu, Unity gets selected as default.. even though I shut down my computer while in GNOME 3
[15:11] <GTRsdk> ikonia, do you know of a specific page on theming Ubuntu 10.04?
[15:11] <boxybrown> we are currently using NIS for network authentication of users, and would like to update this to something more modern.  Any suggestions for what we should be using?
[15:11] <ikonia> GTRsdk: the version doesn't matter, its' the same for any gnome 2 based distribution
[15:11] <ikonia> GTRsdk: there doesn't need to be a specific 10.04 page, as it's the same for any gnome 2 based distro
[15:12] <GTRsdk> oh so it would work on 9.10, 10.04, 10.10, and 11.04?
[15:12] <ikonia> not 11.04 as that is unity driven
[15:13] <dr_willis> and once you get into gnome-3 themeing is.. well.. a work in progress. :)
[15:13] <ikonia> agreed
[15:13] <GTRsdk> okay
[15:13] <dr_willis> Given the move to gnome-3  thats going on. I dont see much point in learning to theme gnome2 unless you just want to learn some stuff. :)
[15:13] <ikonia> agreed it will be a dying platform
[15:16] <GTRsdk> I just want to change the window borders and menu backgrounds
[15:16] <ikonia> GTRsdk: there are tons already on gnome-look,
[15:16] <Cyanure> what is wrong with this command ? $ find /home/cyanure/shared_serial -maxdepth 2 -iname *simp* -a ( -iname *.avi -o -iname *.mkv -o -iname *.flv )
[15:16] <ikonia> have you had a look on there GTRsdk ?
[15:16] <ikonia> Cyanure: I don't believe you can do iname multiple times
[15:16] <ikonia> Cyanure: (I don't know that for a fact though)
[15:17] <GTRsdk> ikonia, yeah, but the window borders I want are transparent. Does GNOME 2 work with transparent window borders?
[15:17] <Arkaitz> -inames must be together
[15:17] <Cyanure> ikonia, it works when I use only the text between parenthesis
[15:17] <Arkaitz> i mean , .flv, ...
[15:17] <bastidrazor> GTRsdk: System > Preferences > Appearances > Theme > Customize.. is that what you're looking for?
[15:17] <ikonia> GTRsdk: with compositing I believe so.
[15:17] <ikonia> Cyanure: because you are using a wildcard
[15:17] <ikonia> Cyanure: you need to quote the wildcard with find
[15:18] <ikonia> the gnu find has tried to stop this, but it must still remain with -iname
[15:18] <GTRsdk> bastidrazor, I found that, but I want to draw my own transparent window border
[15:18] <Cyanure> okonia what is a wildcard?
[15:18] <ikonia> *.avi
[15:18] <ikonia> * is the wildcard
[15:18] <Arkaitz> is it?
[15:18] <Cyanure> ikonia, must put \*?
[15:18] <Error404NotFound> is there any directory like /etc/cron.d where user specific crons can be placed? I already have a file that listed the crons to be run.
[15:18] <ikonia> Cyanure: no, '*.avi' for example
[15:19] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: cron.d is the global control, individual crontabs are in /var/spool/cron
[15:19] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: edit with crontab -e
[15:21] <Error404NotFound> ikonia: say i have file1.crons and file2.crons under a user abc, i want to keep both separate(as scripts update those files on regular basis), both follow the cron syntax. I can only create one file per user, what would be an alternate?
[15:21] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: I would suggest looking at an include in your users crontab
[15:22] <Error404NotFound> ikonia: any hints, what keywords should i put on google? 'include user crontab' ?
[15:22] <WoollyJumper> DustMonkey: There was no process called kworker
[15:22] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: the format is normally something like inclued /home/user/cron1.crontab
[15:23] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: I'm not sure if you can do this in user crontabs, but I believe so, so give it a try
[15:23] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: check the cron docs to see if you can include
[15:23] <Error404NotFound> ikonia: include /path/to/cron.file, where exactly? cron config?
[15:23] <ikonia> Error404NotFound: in the individual users crontab, I don't know if you can do that, it's worth checking
[15:23] <D_Russ> how do i move 9k .ttf files from one directory to another directory that requires su privlages?
[15:24] <D_Russ> sudo mv /home/don/Downloads/*.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family is not working
[15:24] <ikonia> D_Russ: define not working
[15:24] <D_Russ> the files dont move
[15:24] <Cyanure> ikonia, I have th same error with find /home/cyanure/shared_serial -maxdepth 2 -iname '*simp*' -a ( -iname '*.avi' -o -iname '*.mkv' -o -iname '*.flv' )
[15:24] <ikonia> any error ?
[15:24] <D_Russ> no
[15:24] <ikonia> Cyanure: remove the -iname to 1 -iname and work forward from there
[15:25] <ikonia> D_Russ: 9k of files is probably too big a file list,
[15:25] <ikonia> D_Russ: do a loop, it will only take a fraction longer
[15:25] <ikonia> D_Russ: this used to be a common issue with "rm"
[15:25] <D_Russ> how do i do a loop?
[15:25] <ikonia> do a for look
[15:25] <ikonia> oops
[15:25] <ikonia> for loop
[15:26] <D_Russ> huh
[15:26] <D_Russ> is that a command?
[15:26] <Cyanure> ikonia, Didn't get what you just said.
[15:26] <ikonia> Cyanure: you do -iname multiple times, do it once and see if it works, then add a second and see if it filas
[15:27] <ikonia> Cyanure: as I said, I don't believe you can do multiple -inames
[15:27] <D_Russ> is there a way to login as SU and just drag and drop the files?
[15:27] <ikonia> D_Russ: gksudo nautilus
[15:27] <D_Russ> thats the command?
[15:27] <ikonia> D_Russ: yes
[15:27] <D_Russ> thank you
[15:28] <ikonia> D_Russ: that will give you a root enabled file manager
[15:28] <D_Russ> sweet
[15:28] <D_Russ> should make life easier
[15:29] <Eziori> hey guys, so i have ben getting this problem when trying to install 11.04 that when the desktop loads it stops at a certain point, and all i'm left with is the taskbar at the top and the background picture. any ideas on how to fix?
[15:30] <Cyanure> ikonia, ftr If I use \( instead of ( it works : find /home/cyanure/shared_serial -maxdepth 2 -iname '*simp*' -a \( -iname '*.avi' -o -iname '*.mkv' -o -iname '*.flv' \)
 you can put fonts in ~/.fonts apparently,  then run sudo fc-cache -f -v
[15:30] <ikonia> Cyanure: I didn't expect that to work at all
[15:31] <Cyanure> ikonia, yeah but it's better when it works anyway :)
[15:32] <ikonia> Cyanure: nice job
[15:33] <macs> qin the tut isnt working as i dont have internet access on my laptop currently
[15:33] <AdvoWork> whats the latest ubuntu server with lts?
[15:33] <D_Russ> cant find the .fonts folder
[15:34] <Stanley00> !lst| AdvoWork
[15:34] <D_Russ> intellectus, i cant find that folder its not in my home directory, even when i hit view hidden files
[15:34] <Stanley00> AdvoWork: it's 10.04
[15:34] <intellectus> D_Russ, you make a folder called .fonts
[15:34] <D_Russ> ohh i see
[15:34] <Stanley00> !LTS | AdvoWork
[15:35] <D_Russ> then run that command?
[15:35] <D_Russ> sudo fc-cache -f -v
[15:35] <intellectus> D_Russ, yes that updates the font cache
[15:36] <D_Russ> cool
[15:38] <D_Russ> might be overkill to have over 9k different fonts, lol
[15:39] <andyvy> anyone running 11.10 beta 2 who didn't like Unity in 11.04? Is it possible to configure and modify that left panel yet? Is Unity more polished now?
[15:39] <Pici> andyvy : Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released. Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion.
[15:40] <dr_willis> andyvy:  unity by design dosent have any plans to do much more then basic tweaking of the left side panel.
[15:41] <AdvoWork> Stanley00, thanks! and the lucid lynx 10.04 is that both desktop and server?
[15:41] <andyvy> dr_willis: what if I don't use a touchscreen and really have no need for a menu to take up half a screen, will they let us change size / opaccity eventually?
[15:41] <Stanley00> AdvoWork: yes.
[15:44] <Trashi> hi guys. i installed kubuntu and im missing the grid desktop. For some reason the grouping desktop layout is not included in the ubuntu repository. how can i enable it?
[15:44] <usr13> AdvoWork: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[15:44] <dr_willis> andyvy:  compiz lets you resize the icons i set mine to be like size 16
[15:45] <dr_willis> andyvy:  and the compiz plugin also lets you set opacity now.
[15:45] <AdvoWork> anyone here use xen? and have installed ubuntu with it?
[15:45] <andyvy> oh really? where is that option at?
[15:45] <dr_willis> andyvy:  unity plugin in ccsm
[15:45] <andyvy> kk thx dr_willis
[15:45] <dr_willis> Time to check out some Unity tweaking guides. :) and the list of indicator-applets at askubuntu.com
[15:46] <tonysan_> Can I change the bindkey in screen to some specific sequence of keystrokes?
[15:47] <dr_willis> tonysan_:  you mean the ctrl-a key combo?
[15:48] <tonysan_> dr_willis: I am using an android device which lacks of Ctrl, Alt, so I need to change the bindkeys
[15:48] <tonysan_> better without the Ctrl-A...
[15:49] <dr_willis> tonysan_:  that irssiconnectbot program for android has those keys in its special menus
[15:50] <dr_willis> it actually supports just swipeing left/right i think to get to differnt screen windows..  (not really used it a lot)
[15:50] <tonysan_> dr_willis: really, I'll play with it
[15:50] <dr_willis> I have seen android keybord alternatives that have alt-#'s and so forth also. :)
[15:52] <The_BROS> How can I use tomboy hotkeys? There is a problem.
[15:55] <ardithoxha> hey!
[15:55] <ardithoxha> anyone know to how to install ALSA?
[15:56] <GTRsdk> ikonia, the solid color (with transparency) is what I set the panel to use
[15:56] <cvam> I tried software-center.it says "segmentation fault". I've removed thunderbird from synaptic . But it's not complete. Details are http://paste.ubuntu.com/701647/ . after a reboot i can launch  software-center. no segmentation fault. How to complete the thunderbird removing process now ?
[15:56] <ardithoxha> anyone know to how to install ALSA?
[15:57] <dr_willis> ardithoxha:  alsa is installed by default..
[15:57] <dr_willis> !alsa
[15:57] <ardithoxha> no
[15:57] <ardithoxha> I type alsamixer and command not found
[15:57] <dr_willis> !find alsamixer
[15:57] <Gnea> ardithoxha: use apt-get
[15:57] <GTRsdk> ardithoxha, apt-cache search alsamixer
[15:58] <dr_willis> there ya go. install those packages as needed. :)
[15:58] <req^> In #winehq, the topic says that an install to 1.2.3 is recommended. I have 1.2.2 but aptitude says wine is the newest version. apt-cache search shows a wine 1.3 package. Would it be a good idea to install wine1.3? Why are they separate?
[15:58] <ardithoxha> what to write in terminal?
[15:58] <henningvis> where can i downlload the correct new kernel 3 for 11.10...man i am stuggling???tackpled too much for a newby!!
[15:58] <ardithoxha> give me all code
[15:58] <dr_willis> req^:  the repos are not always up to date. theres wine ppa's for newer versions
[15:58] <ardithoxha> can anyone come to my pc with teamviewer?
[15:58] <A_J> ardithoxha: what seems to be the problem
[15:59] <Gnea> !apt | ardithoxha
[15:59] <dr_willis> ardithoxha:  the package name is alsamixergui
[15:59] <ardithoxha> I cannot hear anything :( I tried anything
[15:59] <ardithoxha> pulse, alsa anything
[15:59] <dr_willis> sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:59] <A_J> oh wait nvm, i thought you needed help with teamviewer
[15:59] <dr_willis> ardithoxha:  then why dident you state that earlier. :)
[15:59] <req^> dr_willis: might it cause problems if I install the latest version off-repo? I have no experience doing that.
[15:59] <Gnea> ardithoxha: try plugging the headphones into the right hole?
[15:59] <dr_willis> req^:  i use the winehq ppa's normally
[15:59] <ardithoxha> they are in right hole
[16:00] <ardithoxha> can anyone come to my pc with teamviewer?
[16:00] <dr_willis> ardithoxha:  speakers work but not heaphones?
[16:00] <req^> dr_willis: have you had any compatability issues or other problems using it?
[16:00] <Gnea> ardithoxha: I don't use teamviewer
[16:00] <ardithoxha> I just have speakers :(
[16:00] <cvam> I cant launch software-center.it says "segmentation fault".  Then I've removed thunderbird from synaptic  package manager . But an error has encountered. Details are http://paste.ubuntu.com/701647/ . after a reboot i can launch  software-center. no segmentation fault. How to complete the thunderbird removing process now ?
[16:00] <BarkingFish> is your onboard sound enabled in your BIOS settings, ardithoxha?
[16:00] <dr_willis> req^:  wine is one big 'work in progress'  theres always potentials for problems
[16:00] <req^> dr_willis: understood :)
[16:00] <dr_willis> bbl.
[16:02] <BarkingFish> Normally, unless you have something disabled somewhere, ubuntu's sound pretty much works out of the box.  The first things I'd check would be if you have mains powered speakers, check they're switched on, ardithoxha
[16:02] <tonysan_> dr_willis: found a shortcut key inside connectbot, thanks
[16:02] <BarkingFish> you'd be surprised how many people think they're powered by the PC
[16:02] <genClone> hi
[16:02] <genClone> one question
[16:03] <genClone> would be stable and clean to upgrade to the final version of ubuntu 11.10 if I install the current version right now?
[16:03] <genClone> and easy...
[16:03] <genClone> without mess dependencies and so on
[16:04] <ardithoxha> hey
[16:04] <genClone> or better just to wait some days?
[16:04] <ardithoxha> at gnome-alsamixer
[16:04] <ardithoxha> nothing

[16:04] <gkahla> anyone running jhbuild out there? trying to get GNOME 3.2 working, and there's an error I'm not getting beyond.
[16:04] <bastidrazor> genClone: wait for the release date. everything before that is considered beta and unstable
[16:04] <ardithoxha> cmon
[16:04] <sileni> hello
[16:05] <BarkingFish> I suggest you check your BIOS settings then, if ubuntu isn't finding a sound card, the chances are if it's one built into your motherboard, it's probably disabled in the bios, ardithoxha
[16:05] <ardithoxha> people, at alsa gnome mixer no bars showing :(
[16:05] <BarkingFish> we saw you the first time, ardithoxha - and we're trying to help you. Please be patient with us :)
[16:05] <sileni> I'm trying to timestamp the ping command with the -T option.. but the ping just sits there without sending packets
[16:05] <genClone> bastidrazor: yep, but I need to format and install now a new system, would you recommend to install the 11.04 instead of 11.10?
[16:05] <sileni> but when i try to ping without that option, the ping works just fine
[16:06] <sileni> am i missing something on what the option really does?
[16:06] <ardithoxha> yea but where to check that BarkingFish
[16:06] <bastidrazor> genClone: i have no opinion on it. its your call.
[16:06] <BarkingFish> you need to reboot your machine, and when you start, before ubuntu loads, you will need to press whichever key your PC says for System Setup, it's usually Escape, F1 or F2
[16:06] <sileni> any ping experts in here ? haha
[16:06] <bastidrazor> genClone: this close to release date most issues should be taken care of.
[16:07] <ardithoxha> omg, I know how to go in bios but how to go to that sound check or whatever was?
[16:07] <genClone> I suppose the actual version is very close to the final one.... and in case it isnt, the upgrade in a few days would involve only a few packets, isnt it?
[16:07] <BarkingFish> You just have to look for the right part of the BIOS where you enable and disable hardware, ardithoxha
[16:08] <BarkingFish> I can't tell you where that is, all BIOS's are different
[16:08] <BarkingFish> if you find your onboard sound disabled, enable it.
[16:08] <ardithoxha> oh I got It, do I have to check my Sound Card on BIOS
