[22:05] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: gone to save the world, brb :P
[22:05] <sinou> they say impossible to find the packet flashplugin...
[22:05] <Viking667> There are places to put that nameserver data, by the way.
[22:05] <R0b0t1> Would anyone happen to know a fix for the problem where flash doesn't accept input on x64?
[22:05] <sinou> im on xubuntu 9.10
[22:05] <Jordan_U> Guest37955: Try creating the partition in Gparted, or with mkfs.ext4, that should give you a better error message.
[22:05] <rom> does someone use dualscreen on ubuntu ?
[22:05] <equivoc> Viking667: where should i put it else?
[22:05] <mercutio22> How do I access an encrypted folder?
[22:05] <Jordan_U> !anyone | rom
[22:06] <henkpoley> Hey people, do I need to set a cron job so my cpu governor stays at 'performance' ?
[22:06] <lobak> Ublondie, yup..anyway, thanks for the sharing, will try your tricks
[22:06] <Jester05> well there are two ways.. one you just connect to an active running log in.. u essentially take control of the logged in user.. another allows you to literally log in remotely.. everything functions as if you were sitting directly infront of that machine and log in.. even does a great job if you log into a machine that has a single monitor from a machine that has two monitors, assuming the dual monitor machine's X is configured for it..
[22:06] <klabezo> hi there please is there some room for ubuntu 9.10
[22:06] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: sudo restart gdm
[22:06] <Viking667> equivoc: I'm not sure, that's the problem. But there is actually a place to put it.
[22:06] <Jordan_U> klabezo: This is it
[22:06] <henkpoley> I mean, I've tried 3 ways already to set the scaling_governor at bootup, this sucks
[22:06] <Jester05> but its incredibly easy.. i just dont know that 9.10 allows it.. login menu has changed and i dont see it.. not to say its not an option
[22:06] <rom> Jordan_U, that's true, I already asked but no answer : How to remove the rectangles on the topleft which shows the name of the screen ("llyama 17'" on my external screen, "laptop screen" on my computer)
[22:07] <jrib> henkpoley: are you using GNOME?
[22:07] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Doing that should not only restart it, but also move you from the terminal to the X server (if it doesn't, do CTRL+ALT+F7 to get there)
[22:07] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard restart: Unknown instance:
[22:07] <equivoc> Viking667: thanks
[22:07] <Mike_lifeguard> ah, fun
[22:07] <infidx> ubuntu is asking me if i want to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. should i do it or is it risky? (it's just a personal desktop)
[22:07] <Jordan_U> rom: Just close the display preferences window
[22:07] <henkpoley> jrib: XFCE, thought  that may use some gnome- and kde-isms
[22:07] <morad_> I installed virtualbox in ubuntu. I starts an xp install. but it cant start it with the network adapter attached to the host interface. any experience with that?
[22:07] <rom> Jordan_U, it doesn't remove this rectangle
[22:07] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: meh, just reboot it. ordinarily restarting only gdm is less trouble than rebooting, but clearly that's not true in this case. sudo reboot
[22:07] <klabezo> ok jordan i want to know if i update my 9.04 to 9.10 my applications will not be work ?
[22:07] <Roey> is Java supposed to work out-of-the-box?  I'm getting errors in Faceboook
[22:07] <jrib> henkpoley: well on gnome, there is a daemon that sets scaling governor.  Check for it
[22:07] <Vashta_Nerada> When trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 through update manager I get the wonderfully exacting error: Authentication failed There may be a problem with the network or with the server.  Advice?
[22:07] <Ublondie> lobak: no probs ...just thought I'd share my own experience with it.  You can always see if anyone else can help further?
[22:08] <henkpoley> jrib: daemons have processes (in top/ps) isn't it ?
[22:08] <Jester05> Mike_lifeguard, the feature I was talking about is part of the older login manager... I'm not sure if the new manager used in 9.10 will allow such a thing .. I will have to investigate.  If it doesnt I will be setting up an SSH
[22:08] <R0b0t1> Would anyone happen to know a fix for the problem where flash doesn't accept input on x64?
[22:08] <{aaron}> hi guys, what's the safe way to enable 'ufw' if i'm logged in remotely via ssh?  after setting some options 'ufw show' shows nothing...so I assume I need the firewall running in order to add rules??
[22:08] <rom> ah yes there was a prefrences window open :(
[22:08] <rom> thank you
[22:08] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: It is up to you. There are some small issues with Karmic (see the release notes) and upgrading is always inherently dangerous to some extent. But I did it and nothing exploded yet
[22:08] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard i was trying to make dual screen montior settings
[22:08] <{aaron}> in CentOS i just did that in the iptables config, i would be glad to if i knew where that was on ubuntu
[22:09] <jrib> henkpoley: yes.  iirc there's also something in /etc/init.d that sets the scaling governor.  (I had to deal with what you are dealing with a couple of years ago so I don't remember the details)
[22:09] <henkpoley> jrib: I do have an '/usr/lib/hal/hald-addon-cpufreq' running
[22:09] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard,  and then i press ctrl alt bk space
[22:09] <Roey> anyone here versed in Java?  I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 here.   I get this error when I try to upload photos to Facebook (it launches a Java app):  http://pastebin.com/m77a93db9  -- I installed sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin, then tried thsi under both Chromium-browser and firefox-3.5
[22:09] <mom> is there a 686 version of ubuntu?
[22:09] <mom> i686
[22:09] <Roey> mom:  yah, the ia32 version
[22:09] <klabezo> is there in one can help me ?
[22:09] <melat0nin> can anyone tell me how to change the path where the default bookmarks point to? i.e. Downloads, Pictures, Music etc
[22:09] <Roey> mom:  386, rather
[22:09] <sidewalk> how do you guys recommend that i mirror disks in Ubuntu, two exact harddrives ?
[22:09] <Viking667> mom: actually, that's i586, sorta.
[22:09] <Jordan_U> rom: Try "killall gnome-display-properties"
[22:09] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: If you do, and you have a separate /home partition, I *highly* recommend downloading the ISO using a torrent and reinstalling rather than upgrading (there is an easy way to re-install your custom packages en-masse, btw)
[22:10] <Viking667> lol. My upgrade happened smoothly, thanks.
[22:10] <mom> 386 is optimized for 686?
[22:10] <{aaron}> Roey: do you have all the right jars on your classpath? (e.g. -classpath "...:...:.."
[22:10] <Viking667> hell, no.
[22:10] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: Second-best is to download the alternate ISO from a torrent and upgrade using that (say 'no' so you don't use network at all, you can do that later when the servers are less overloaded)
[22:10] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Really, you should just reboot, clearly something is gone wrong here.
[22:10] <Roey> {aaron}:  lemme check.
[22:10] <LoCoBoi187> would you guys rather get ubuntu 8 or 9?
[22:10] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard i did reboot
[22:10] <{aaron}> Roey: oh, nvm, i see you mean this was an applet
[22:10] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: If you decide to do it and you want help, feel free to ask me
[22:10] <jrib> melat0nin: something like ~/.config/xdg-user-dirs (from memory so likely different)
[22:11] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: ok, so I guess your X server still isn't working?
[22:11] <klabezo> :( no one help me
[22:11] <Roey> ah
[22:11] <Roey> {aaron}:  yes
[22:11] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, yea it still not working
[22:11] <{aaron}> Roey: have you tried pulling the URL it's trying to access directly?  it's weird..maybe a facebook bug?
[22:11] <Mike_lifeguard> klabezo: Please state what the problem is "no one help me" doesn't let me know what your problem is so I can decide whether I can help you or not
[22:11] <cidem> klabezo: Specify your question
[22:11] <ironfoot495> Hello can some\ help me fix limewire is not responding???
[22:11] <infidx> what's likely to break in an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[22:11] <Pilif12p> how do i update from RC to Final?
[22:11] <sinou> why when i tape the name of something to install they said impossible to find the packet "...."???
[22:11] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: So, you get a terminal login?
[22:11] <melat0nin> jrib: got it - ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. Thanks! Is it enough to change the contents of that file, then log out and in again?
[22:11] <jrib> Pilif12p: just let update-manager do its thing
[22:11] <Roey> {aaron}:  hmm.  How would I do that?
[22:11] <klabezo> if i update my 9.04 to 9.10 my applications will not be work ?
[22:11] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, yea
[22:11] <sebsebseb> !final |  Pilif12p
[22:11] <jrib> melat0nin: I believe so, yes
[22:11] <LoCoBoi187> would you guys rather get ubuntu 8 or 9?
[22:12] <cidem> klabezo: What application?
[22:12] <melat0nin> jrib: great, thanks :)
[22:12] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: login and do 'pgrep gdm'
[22:12] <{aaron}> Roey: wget http://upload.facebook.com/controls/2008.10.10_v5.5.8/com/facebook/facebookphotouploader5/FacebookPhotoUploader5/class.class
[22:12] <{aaron}> and see what it does
[22:12] <Roey> {aaron}:  I considered it might be a bug in their app; can you verify by opening up the Add Photos applet?
[22:12] <sebsebseb> Pilif12p: assuming all the updates installed properly, which should be the case with the RC
[22:12] <KhaosDrone> Hello all, Small privacy question here. I am in a big local network at the moment with an avarage of 20+ people in the same ip range. I want to hide myself from them. Because atm they can see my Netbios name, open ports and see me as an alive host. Is there a way to hide me? i am a novice, Using Ubuntu 9.10 32Bit latest Build kernel 2.6.31-14-generic, Samba is NOT installed
[22:12] <{aaron}> Roey: one sec
[22:12] <IndyGunFreak> LoCoBoi187: why would you get ubuntu 8.04?
[22:12] <Roey> {aaron}:  aye, thanks
[22:12] <andyjb10> upgraded to karmic, cannot boot into 2.6.31 (hangs after 2s), can boot into 2.6.28 (with problems). tried reinstalling 2.6.31 image, worked once but it broke again, anyone able to help?
[22:12] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: actually, 'ps aux | grep gdm' is more informative
[22:12] <sebsebseb> andyjb10: Probably a good idea to do a clean install of 9.10
[22:12] <klabezo> some thing like color pick & bluefise & appace server
[22:13] <Jester05> hey.. has anyone used any form of remote-login with 9.10 yet.. prior to 9.10 I was able to do a remote login thru the login manager.. its not an option now however?
[22:13] <klabezo> appache..
[22:13] <Mike_lifeguard> andyjb10: What did you do to break it? Also, sebsebseb is right.
[22:13] <andyjb10> sebsebseb: how?
[22:13] <sebsebseb> andyjb10: and md5sum the ISO before burning
[22:13] <cidem> klabezo: Those things should still work after an update
[22:13] <sebsebseb> andyjb10: the contents of it to CD
[22:13] <sebsebseb> !md5sum |  andyjb10
[22:13] <Pilif12p> does it download the whole package/
[22:13] <mercutio22> How do I mounted an encrypted folder?
[22:13] <Pilif12p> ?
[22:13] <henkpoley> after using `strings` on hald-addon-cpufreq, it seems it load settings from "org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.cpufreq" where can I find/change that ?
[22:13] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Any luck seeing if gdm is running?
[22:13] <klabezo> ok good
[22:13] <andyjb10> so i have just wasted 4 hours?
[22:13] <alberto2000> hello, i have a problem with gparted - resolution is fine, but windows are waaay to big! whats wrong?
[22:13] <alberto2000> can someone help?
[22:13] <mercutio22> ops. I mean How do I "mount" an encrypted folder?
[22:14] <OerHeks> !pastebin
[22:14] <klabezo> but i have another problem with my sound card
[22:14] <R0b0t1> Would anyone happen to know a fix for the problem where flash doesn't accept input on x64?
[22:14] <Roey> andyjb10:  if I could be snarky for a second, "welcome to the world of Ubuntu"
[22:14] <Mike_lifeguard> alberto2000: lolwut? gparted is a partition manager -- if windows are waaay too big then maybe you're talking about something else/
[22:14] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, ok it shows ak47 1895 0.0 0.0 7336 876 tty6 R+ 17:13 0.00 grep --color=au to gdm
[22:14] <musikgoat1> !ecrypt| mercutio22
[22:14] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, when i ps aux | grep gdm
[22:14] <Mike_lifeguard> ok, so gdm isn't running (wtf?)
[22:14] <sebsebseb> andyjb10: yep updates don't always go perfectly propery
[22:14] <mercutio22> musikgoat1: any clues?
[22:14] <Revol5> Quick question: are there any upside or downside to using a USB drive as a system disk for ubuntu? (9.10)
[22:15] <docmax> is gconf-editor something like regedit in windows?
[22:15] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: try 'sudo start gdm'
[22:15] <Viking667> so, nobody has any ideas about my xauth problem?
[22:15] <Gleim> why can't be installed gparted?
[22:15] <musikgoat1> mercutio22: you should be able to mount with ecryptfs
[22:15] <Jordan_U> KhaosDrone: Install gufw and set it to deny all incoming traffic
[22:15] <Mike_lifeguard> andyjb10: updates generally suck, I always recommend having a separate /home partition and simply reinstalling on the root partition
[22:15] <hlias> sebsebseb, I'm installing the update(from 9.04 to 9.10) right now. I've done that already twice. When it reboots it goes on terminal...no gui or something
[22:15] <cidem> Revol5: it's probably slow and the drive will degrade over the time
[22:15] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, it show gdm start/running, process 1898
[22:15] <Mike_lifeguard> Gleim: I don't understand your question, can you try again?
[22:15] <airforceguy> guys i have ubuntu 9.10 beta..how to update to latest offical version
[22:16] <musikgoat1> mercutio22: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[22:16] <LjL> !final | airforceguy
[22:16] <Roey> {aaron}:  any luck?
[22:16] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: and if you do CTRL-ALT-F7...?
[22:16] <klabezo> i change my sound card after the built in card was damage but i can't hear any voice
[22:16] <{aaron}> Roey: it's just spinning
[22:16] <Vashta_Nerada> When trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 through update manager I get the wonderfully exacting error: Authentication failed There may be a problem with the network or with the server.    The network is good btw.
[22:16] <jhaig> I cannot upgrade to 9.10.  I consistently get an error "Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libo/liboobs/liboobs-1-4_2.22.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Size mismatch".  I have tried re-running the update after "sudo apt-get clean" and changing the download location.  Can anyone help?
[22:16] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard:  andyjb10   updates usaully go ok, but not always, sometimes hardware stops working in a later version of Ubuntu,  and not, because of an upgrade from one version to another
[22:16] <Roey> {aaron}:  for you too?
[22:16] <alberto2000> Mike_lifeguard: no i mean the application windows are like 1000 times bigger than they should be. its absolutely not possible to use gparted that way. is this a common problem? tried to choose other video driver but no luck
[22:16] <dAnon> what is the cause of the guid auth unkn error in et wolfenstein?
[22:16] <jhaig> This error comes after the packages are downloaded.
[22:16] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, no luck
[22:16] <{aaron}> ....could be because i'm upgrading a machien over the network as well...
[22:16] <airforceguy> thank you
[22:16] <Gleim> Mike_lifeguard i tried to install gparted, but ubuntu can't found that packet :S
[22:16] <Roey> ah.
[22:16] <cidem> klabezo: Have you checked if the sound is not muted and the volume is high enough?
[22:16] <{aaron}> ok it loaded
[22:16] <Roey> ah.;
[22:17] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard:   andyjb10   ,becasue it turns out it didn't work on the Live CD  also,  I have a little story in fact
[22:17] <hlias> sebsebseb, that msg was adressing to me?
[22:17] <Roey> {aaron}:  which os ar yeou running
[22:17] <klabezo> yes the volume is not muted
[22:17] <CavalierPrime> Gleim sudo apt-get install gparted
[22:17] <Mike_lifeguard> alberto2000: That has nothing to do with gparted, I think. But honestly I don't know how to help you :(
[22:17] <{aaron}> Roey: well...i'm currently on Vista x64...
[22:17] <xisco> how can I set ubuntu 9.10 to mount a hard disk everytime I start up the system ?
[22:17] <andyjb10> but i have been able to get into karmic a couple of times (selecting 2.6.31 from grub menu)
[22:17] <Roey> oh.
[22:17] <sebsebseb> hlias: no, but  maybe those messages are  relivant for you
[22:18] <jrib> !fstab > xisco
[22:18] <cidem> klabezo: If you right-click on the audio symbol in the upper right corner and click on settings, does it know about your soundcard?
[22:18] <{aaron}> Roey: the url from your error is 404, so i'm not sure what it's trying to do
[22:18] <XDevHald> Any reason Transmission Bittorrent Client would give this error after a new torrent file was made: Couldn't add corrupt torrent
[22:18] <Jester05> so ubuntu 9.10 / new GDM does not allow XDMCP login.. why would they remove such a useful feature?
[22:18] <Mike_lifeguard> Gleim: pastebin your command and the output for me?
[22:18] <sebsebseb> hlias: something that worked fine in the previous release,  might not work at all in the next one,  fortunatly this is not usaully the case
[22:18] <alberto2000> Mike_lifeguard: maybe its theme based problem? can i change the font size / window border size somehow in gparted?
[22:19] <Pilif12p> i did sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... Now what?
[22:19] <xisco> jrib, Ubottu Doing on that way, I have to edit the file, is there any GUI to do it ?
[22:19] <hlias> the upgrade manager is up to ask me if I want to remove some not-useful things, should I remove them? cause i did it 2 times and I couldn't get to the gui after the reboot
[22:19] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: It may not be on F7 -- try the other F keys
[22:19] <Ublondie> I'm having problems mounting external Western Digital usb harddrive after installing 9.10. Drive just clicks on and off ...
[22:19] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: If it still isn't on any of those, then I have run out of ideas to help you, I'm sorry.
[22:19] <klabezo> the input tab doesn't show any thing but in the output tab there is some thing
[22:19] <jrib> xisco: pysdm is one way.  I think there's a new way in karmic too
[22:19] <BenG92> hi, i just installed Ubuntu on my windows vista system, but im having trouble connecting to the wireless because my Dell Inspiron Wireless card can't be turned on. Any help?
[22:19] <cavedweller96> oh, fun Karmic problems...
[22:19] <sebsebseb> hlias: I suggest doing a clean install of 9.10, beause it seems quite a lot of people have had issues upgrading from 9.04
[22:19] <lewic> just finished installing ubuntu 9.10 and have lost my Thunderbird Lightning calendar and task list.  Can anybody help?
[22:19] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, i'm going try reinstall a fresh install
[22:19] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, sigh.
[22:20] <Mike_lifeguard> Jester05: new gdm lacks many features, actually. It is totally non-configurable from GUI for example

[22:20] <jordy240> hi - I installed a program called boinc recently, and I uninstalled it but whenever my computer starts up, I always see it using all my cpu(via top). how can I run sudo killall boinc
[22:20] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: I'm sorry you have to, but I really have no more ideas :(
[22:20] <IndyGunFreak> BenG92: which wireless device?.. whats the chipset on it?
[22:20] <sebsebseb> !ot |  kevdog
[22:20] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, is there anyway i can back up my firefox bookmarks in command screen???
[22:20] <Vashta_Nerada> nobody likes my problem, or me
[22:20] <cidem> klabezo: What about the "hardware" tab? Does your card show there├¤
[22:20] <cidem> ?
[22:20] <hlias> sebsebseb: damn, it's too late :/ it's like on the 80% of the installation, can I cancel it?
[22:20] <Vashta_Nerada> :(
[22:20] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Almost certainly yes, but I don't know it. Do you have a separate /home partition, by chance?
[22:20] <musikgoat1> !patience | Vashta_Nerada

[22:20] <Xcell> ubuntu-  what graphics driver you using
[22:20] <XDevHald> Any reason Transmission Bittorrent Client would give this error after a new torrent file was made: Couldn't add corrupt torrent
[22:20] <Vashta_Nerada> ;)
[22:20] <Roey> {aaron}:  that's 404??
[22:20] <andyjb10> sebsebseb: but i have been able to get into karmic a couple of times (selecting 2.6.31 from grub menu)
[22:20] <klabezo> no cidem nothing there
[22:20] <sebsebseb> hlias: yes, but that would not be a good idea at all, things will be rather messed up if you do that
[22:20] <oscar__> hi can anyone tell me how to stop grub from loading on start up ? thanks
[22:20] <BenG92> its a Broadcom wireless card, the default to come with a Dell Inspiron 1501
[22:21] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: If you do, then you just leave the /home partition untouched when reinstalling. If not, now is a very good time to get yourself a separate /home partition!
[22:21] <Vashta_Nerada> thanks ubottu
[22:21] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, yes I do . And I'm not sure how too reinstall
[22:21] <Dragnslcr> I'm on the 9.10 installer, and it's trying to combine sda and sdb into a RAID mirror, even though I don't want it to. Anyone know how to tell the system that the disks aren't mirrored?
[22:21] <CavalierPrime> BenG92  it may take some doing, there is a wiki for it on the Ubuntu docs page
[22:21] <IndyGunFreak> BenG92: how does lspci identify it.. ther's like 3-4 different ones
[22:21] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Download the ISO from a torrent (you'll get much faster speeds) and reinstall like normal from that
[22:21] <amikrop> Hello, how can I auto-generate a menu.lst for my kernels?
[22:21] <Nalleman_> hi, i would like to remove ubuntu from my machine and from now on use windows bootloader. how can this be done in the most simple manner?
[22:21] <sebsebseb> histo: and if it asks you to remove  uneeded packages,  that should be ok
[22:22] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: sudo update-grub, IIRC
[22:22] <sebsebseb> histo: to tell it to remove those packages
[22:22] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard, yes I do . untouch so i just don't click anything for home . and delete the /boot partation and / paration and
[22:22] <cidem> klabezo: That's too bad. What is the brand and product name of the card?
[22:22] <BenG92> right now im on vista (because i can't connect on ubuntu) so i can't really say its exact spec
[22:22] <amikrop> I selected "keep current version" during upgrade but I changed my mind
[22:22] <hlias> sebsebseb: are you pretty sure about that remove thing? :D
[22:22] <amikrop> Mike_lifeguard: ok, thanks
[22:22] <CavalierPrime> BenG92   mine worked default with 8.10 on an Inspiron 2200
[22:22] <ubuntu> Mike_lifeguard and remake / and /boot
[22:22] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: Sure. IIRC, there is a way to have it use /home (but don't change anything on it)... but I forget /exactly/ how to do it
[22:22] <musikgoat1> amikrop: make usre you are using legacy grub though, not grub2
[22:22] <sebsebseb> amikrop: yeah keeping the  old version of Grub is probaly a good idea
[22:22] <Pilif12p> Do i have to reboot after i do the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[22:22] <sebsebseb> amikrop: ,but to late now by the sounds of it
[22:22] <IndyGunFreak> BenG92: well, my dartboard hasn't been accurate today, so we'll have to leave it at that
[22:23] <amikrop> sebsebseb: yeah :P
[22:23] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: So, you can just have it ignore /home totally, and reinstall on the other partitions. Then, edit fstab to have it mount /home
[22:23] <amikrop> musikgoat1: how can I check that?
[22:23] <klabezo> i think it some thing like premium
[22:23] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: (you can use a livecd to do that)
[22:23] <BenG92> ok, but CavalierPrime, you say theres a wiki page? if so il do take a look
[22:23] <LinuxGuy2009> I'm having an issue with 9.10 and installing packages manually with dpkg. These packages were downloaded from the live cd using a synaptic download script. Ardour, Qjackctl, meterbridge, all create broken packages after installation with dpkg. I manually tried installing them one by one and the jack package seems to be the culprit. Gdebi throws this error "Error:Breaks existing package 'libjack0', conflict: jackd (> 0.116.1-4ubuntu2)".
[22:23] <XubuntuNewUser> Hi, everyone. I just installed Xubuntu 9.10. I need to get flash up and running! (Amd 64 x2.)
[22:23] <Mike_lifeguard> ubuntu: (or just use the root prompt in the recovery boot option
[22:23] <musikgoat1> amikrop: does /boot/grub/menu.lst   exist?
[22:23] <Mike_lifeguard> )
[22:23] <Ublondie> ubuntu: if you're doing a fresh install of ubuntu and want to keep your current /home partition, you still need to select it during install process ...
[22:23] <cidem> klabezo: A _lot_ of cards exist with that name :-)
[22:23] <amikrop> now, yes
[22:23] <Ublondie> sorry to stick my nose in ....
[22:23] <IndyGunFreak> BenG92: the wiki page seems to be a bit outdated for karmic..
[22:23] <musikgoat1> amikrop: or does /boot/grub/grub.cfg exist?
[22:23] <Plecebo> Ubuntu 9.10 install trouble: LiveCD starts ok, but installer does not show my HD. Gparted shows the drive fine. Non Livecd install hangs. 9.04 installer works fine. Suggestions?
[22:24] <Jordan_U> LinuxGuy2009: Are they all in a single directory?
[22:24] <musikgoat1> did you fresh install Karmic amikrop
[22:24] <musikgoat1> ?
[22:24] <amikrop> musikgoat1: menu.lst
[22:24] <Mike_lifeguard> musikgoat1: IIRC, update-grub will write whichever one it should for the version of GRUB you have, but I could be wrong
[22:24] <amikrop> no, upgraded
[22:24] <LinuxGuy2009> Jordan_U: Well I have 3 folders one for each app and each's deps.
[22:24] <amikrop> ok, thanks again, I reboot
[22:24] <musikgoat1> Mike_lifeguard: your right
[22:24] <klabezo> ok cidem if i go to windows and see the name it will be good for you to help me ?
[22:24] <CavalierPrime> BenG92   here is a start    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[22:24] <Ublondie> ubuntu: Ubuntu still needs to know to mount that partition as /home  ....select it during manual partitioning process, but DO NOT format it  :)
[22:24] <oscar__> Hello, I'm trying to stop GRUB from loading on startup, can anyone help?
[22:25] <Jordan_U> LinuxGuy2009: run "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/directory/*.deb"
[22:25] <sebsebseb> oscar__: Grub is meant to load when your computer is turned on or re booted
[22:25] <cidem> klabezo: Simply open a terminal and type "lspci", it should show up there
[22:25] <musikgoat1> oscar__: since you need A boot loader, what do you want to use instead?
[22:25] <henkpoley> jrib: now just did: sudo chmod -rw /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-cpufreq.fdi
[22:25] <Mike_lifeguard> Ublondie, ubuntu: Yeah, that's right. I was always really scared to have it use /home on that screen because I wasn't exactly sure what it would do... they should make it clearer how to do that.
[22:25] <sebsebseb> oscar__: or another boot loader such as Lilo when doing a Linux distro
[22:25] <Jordan_U> oscar__: What would you like to happen instead of grub loading?
[22:25] <LinuxGuy2009>  Jordan_U: Right, thats what I usually do without a hitch when I was on 9.04. Never had this issue before.
[22:25] <henkpoley> jrib: so HAL doesn't load the settings (I hope so, at least)
[22:25] <GhostWolfy> hi all, does anyone know if theres a way to recover files i deleted before i install 9.10?
[22:25] <jrib> henkpoley: that's not very pretty, but ok
[22:25] <cidem> man this channel needs a handful of full-time supporters ;)
[22:26] <LinuxGuy2009>  Jordan_U: Wondering if I have discovered a bug or something.
[22:26] <oscar__> sebsebseb: I'm trying to recover my system using a recovery partition
[22:26] <Mike_lifeguard> oscar__: Probably you really just want GRUB to have a timeout of zero so it automatically chooses the default entry and boots into it quickly
[22:26] <henkpoley> jrib: unless someone can tell me what to, it doesn't seem to be documented *anywhere*
[22:26] <oscar__> sebsebseb: but grub is loading after I try to start it
[22:26] <Ublondie> Mike_lifeguard: agreed ....I have done it twice now (re doing fresh installs - both 9.04 and 9.10), so feel comfortable with it  :)  ....if it's not selected, then the drive doesn't get mounted of course, when you start Ubuntu
[22:26] <BenG92> Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller
[22:26] <klabezo> ok brb
[22:26] <Jordan_U> oscar__: Grub probably has an entry for your recovery partition, hold down shift during boot if you don't see the grub menu
[22:26] <IndyGunFreak> BenG92: thats a wired controller
[22:26] <BenG92> all i can pull from my spec given to me from Vista
[22:26] <jrib> henkpoley: why not just create your own .fdi based on that one with the proper governor?
[22:26] <henkpoley> jrib: I only find confused people (with laptops, where a power change also triggers HAL to reset the governor)
[22:26] <CavalierPrime> BenG92   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[22:27] <BenG92> Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> CavalierPrime: thats from feisty...
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[22:27] <henkpoley> jrib: no, it only loads the "setter' it doesn't specify a setting
[22:27] <CavalierPrime> it will work
[22:27] <jrib> henkpoley: are you on karmic though?
[22:27] <BenG92> Just reading that Cavalier
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> CavalierPrime: lol
[22:27] <henkpoley> jrib: Jaunty
[22:27] <CavalierPrime> i have an inspiron 2200
[22:27] <oscar__> Jordan_U: I do see the GRUB menu, I dont see teh recovery partition, I'm not actually trying to get into the parition manually
[22:27] <imlach> Hi
[22:27] <CavalierPrime> it has a broadcom and it works now
[22:27] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Do not follow that guide unless you have already tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[22:27] <musikgoat1> BenG92: likely that is using a broadcom chipset, unless things have changed recently, dell usually rebrands broadcom wireless cards?
[22:27] <klabezo> cidem please see your pm
[22:28] <amikrop> musikgoat1: oh, the boot failed
[22:28] <musikgoat1> oops that wasn't a question
[22:28] <GhostWolfy> does anyone know if there is a way to recover deleted files that are no longer on my hdd?
[22:28] <oscar__> Jordan_U: It is just a recovery manager that uses that partition, I just press f11 when I boot up my comptuer to start it ip
[22:28] <imlach> Has anyone else had problems with the latest server release? As in, it keeps crashing?
[22:28] <BenG92> musikgoat1, yes that do
[22:28] <amikrop> I got File Not Found on GRUB
[22:28] <Ublondie> can anyone help with problems mounting an external USB hard drive :(
[22:28] <henkpoley> jrib: reboot.. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor ... ondemand .. shit
[22:28] <oscar__> Jordan_U: it's just that when I try to start it up, GRUB loads and stops the recovery process\
[22:28] <BenG92> il try some of these things you are suggesting now
[22:28] <amikrop> musikgoat1: and I edited the GRUB line on the fly, and used the 13 kernel (not the 14)
[22:28] <Mike_lifeguard> Ublondie: Yes, but it's trivial to add it to /etc/fstab and alter the filesystem
[22:28] <musikgoat1> !fixgrub | amikrop
[22:28] <jrib> henkpoley: if you change it though, does it get changed back after a while?  Did it use to (before your chmod)?
[22:28] <amikrop> and fortunately it booted
[22:29] <amikrop> it seems update-grub failed
[22:29] <imlach> Is it just my server that randomy crashes, or has it been happening to others?
[22:29] <Ublondie> Mike_lifeguard: ok ...good to know ....
[22:29] <spaztik> anyone else notice that the audio mixer acts strange when adjusting volume? it does a mix of Master and PCM alterations.. is this to mimic logarithmic volume controls?
[22:29] <jt76> dose anyone else have issues with skype processing at 100% (using 9.10)
[22:29] <amikrop> musikgoat1: since I upgraded from 9.04 I still have GRUB 1, right?
[22:29] <musikgoat1> amikrop: not likely
[22:29] <spaztik> yes, until 9.10
[22:30] <infidx> does ubuntu one sync to windows?
[22:30] <Jordan_U> amikrop: If you upgraded to grub2 and are now getting grub error 15 it's probably because you didn't check a drive to install to during the upgrade, to fix this follow this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and don't forget to choose a drive to install to
[22:30] <cavedweller96> don't think so...
[22:30] <musikgoat1> infidx: not currently
[22:30] <henkpoley> jrib: hey I've set it with `cpufreq-set`, I set it at boot with /etc/rc.local and an echo, and I set with /etc/sysctl.conf
[22:30] <Dragnslcr> Anyone know how I can get the installer to not think that /dev/sda and /dev/sdb should be combined into /dev/mapper ?
[22:30] <jrib> henkpoley: also make sure gnome-power-manager isn't responsible
[22:30] <henkpoley> jrib: and that chmod hack
[22:30] <sansai> how does the karmic home folder encryption work?  i'm using virtualbox and have machines on /sdb1 but as i'm building the guest machines the file system on /home is growing instead of the location of the machines
[22:30] <henkpoley> jrib: and still it goes back to ondemand
[22:30] <duffydack> BoredKender, btw I still run XMMS cuz of its EQ (or winamps presets) that give it that little bit of nice.  audacious sounds like crap with the same presets.
[22:30] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[22:30] <jrib> henkpoley: right but if you change it now, and it doesn't change back, that means it's just something in the boot process.  If it does change back, then you have a daemon setting it
[22:30] <henkpoley> jrib: I don't think I have anything gnome-power-manager
[22:30] <Tetracomm> So there is still no AIM client for Linux with voice chat support?
[22:30] <Pilif12p> Do i do anything after sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to update?
[22:30] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I was not asked to choose a drive during the upgrade
[22:30] <musikgoat1> infidx: if your looking for a cross compaitble version, look at dropbox
[22:30] <jrib> henkpoley: check: ps -ef | grep power
[22:31] <henkpoley> jrib: actually that is there too yes..
[22:31] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: Yes, you'll have grub-legacy (it is too dangerous to update bootloader during an upgrade)
[22:31] <cidem> I want to use kaffeine to watch DVB-S TV, but after installing the codecs and scanning for channels, tuning to one of them only gives me audio, no video. I use xine backend, since with gstreamer I get the error "medium was not accessible". Does anyone have another idea on what to check/try next?
[22:31] <jrib> henkpoley: gnome-power-manager is?
[22:31] <hvammen> Hi, ive upgraded my easypeasy installation, and now the mouse aint working.. Anyone know what I can do to fix this?
[22:31] <Jordan_U> amikrop: Did you run "sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy" ? It should have prompted you
[22:31] <musikgoat1> Mike_lifeguard: are you sure, i believe part of the upgrade process is installing grub2 over grub
[22:31] <henkpoley> jrib: any idea where *that* can be set, gnome-power-manager settings ? from XFCE
[22:31] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I didn't
[22:31] <JonathanEllis> I have done a clean install of Karmic desktop on a Dell Latitude C610 laptop. The screen displays incorrectly: there are strange green broken horizontal lines of various lengths at the top of the screen and windows like firefox do not display correctly. Also it does not recover properly from the screensaver. I had to install from the alternate install CD as the graphics on the live CD do not work properly. I had the same problem with the live CDs for
[22:31] <GhostWolfy> ok one last time can anyone or does anyone know if theres a way to recover files that i deleted from my hdd? im planning on installing 9.10 and i want to make sure i can get it before it actually erases it fully
[22:31] <jrib> henkpoley: gconf was the way I did it before
[22:32]  * IndyGunFreak misses grub-legacy already
[22:32] <infidx> what's the main reason to upgrade to 9.10, is it bad to keep using 9.04 for another year?
[22:32] <TuxOtaku> hey, anyone running karmic on acer aspire one here?
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> musikgoat1: No, it doesn't upgrade the bootloader, nor does it upgrade filesystems to ext4 (obviously)
[22:32] <amikrop> Mike_lifeguard: since I have legacy then why did the menu.lst from update-grub failed?
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> musikgoat1: But it is very easy to upgrade
[22:32] <Berzerker> how do I rescan for hardware drivers?
[22:32] <lewic> I cannot access my lightning calendar or task list in after upgrading to 9.10, even Thunderbird shows lightning as being installed.  Anybody able to help?
[22:32] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I should run that now?
[22:32] <Jordan_U> amikrop: Did you do a fresh install of Karmic? If not how did you upgrade to grub2
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: I'm not sure I understand what you mean
[22:32] <Berzerker> hardware drivers keeps showing I have no proprietary drivers, even though I know I do (broadcom 4312)
[22:32] <hvammen> When my mouse aint working, what can I do to fix it?
[22:32] <blue0488> how can I get Ubuntu studio on my Ubuntu desktop?
[22:33] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I upgraded from 9.04 to Karmic. I think I still have GRUB 1.
[22:33] <Viking667> I cheated, used the DVD.
[22:33] <henkpoley> jrib: at least "power management preferences" in XFCE don't mention anything about scaling governors, also I don't think my mythtv user has the rights to fiddel with that
[22:33] <hvammen> I have an ubuntu eee pc
[22:33] <JonathanEllis> I also have a similar problem with my Dell Dimension 2400 with 9.10 although here the graphics are so blurry at the logon screen that I cannot even log on.
[22:33] <spaztik> blue0488, install ubuntustudio pkg... but keep in mind that the closed source nvidia/ati drivers won't work
[22:33] <Alaric`> Successfully resumed and completed the 9.10 upgrade, I think.  I seem to have one outstanding problem ...   unable to reconfigure nfs-common.  'Removing system startup links for /etc/init.d/nfs-common' ; 'startL Unknown job: statd' ; 'invoke-rc.d: initscript statd, action "restart" failed' ; at which point dpkg bails.  Tried installing, and reinstalling, statd; no joy.  Any suggestions?
[22:33] <Jordan_U> amikrop: You should, I don't know why you are getting that error message.
[22:33] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037538
[22:33] <amikrop> Mike_lifeguard: I ran an update-grub and a new menu.lst was generated (I think). But I rebooted and got an error 15.
[22:33] <hlias> HALLELUJAH!! 9.10 on my pc!
[22:33] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: I don't know what error 15 is
[22:34] <cavedweller96> is anyone else getting kernel problem errors?
[22:34] <_nix_> hlias: hoorey
[22:34]  * Jordan_U Notes to IndyGunFreak that this problem actually seems to have nothing to do with grub2
[22:34] <musikgoat1> !yay | hlias
[22:34] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I got that message after I ran update-grub (before a while)
[22:34] <woble> amikrop, update or upgrade?

[22:35] <PiLoT2> hey im having some troubles with setting up my mobiloe broadband can anyone help me?
[22:35] <hlias> The problem mighta been that on my previous attemptions I pressed on "delete those unneeded things" on the upgrader.

[22:35] <hlias> attempts
[22:35] <hlias> x;D
[22:35] <CavalierPrime> infidx  sudo fdisk -l
[22:35] <woble> amikrop, check if /boot/grub/device.map is set right
[22:35] <infidx> why doesnt ubuntu make /home a separate partition by default
[22:36] <spaztik> anyone else notice that the audio mixer acts strange when adjusting volume? it does a mix of Master and PCM alterations.. is this to mimic logarithmic volume controls?
[22:36] <JonathanEllis> PiLoT2: I dont know if I can help you but can you describe the problem fully and then if I can help I will
[22:36] <musikgoat1> CavalierPrime: that only tells you your partition info, not where a /home directory is located
[22:36] <netbook> Anyone running electic sheep in 9.10?
[22:36] <amikrop> woble: (hd0)	/dev/sda
[22:36] <Jordan_U> infidx: Because that would not let users easily make full use of their hard drive's space
[22:36] <infidx> how long should it take to upgrade to 9.10 over the internet?
[22:36] <woble> amikrop, just 1 HD in the box?
[22:36] <amikrop> yes
[22:37] <p1und3r> anyone getting someone about Not being able to mount one or more partitions before normally booting in to the system
[22:37] <sansai> infidx as long as a piece of string
[22:37] <JonathanEllis> infidx: You have the choice whether to use a dedicated partition for /home. There are pros and cons both ways so that is a personal choice
[22:37] <zealiod> is anyone using ebtables here with vlans?
[22:37] <hlias> infidx: depends on your connection
[22:37] <emmy> spaztik, ive noticed it's a little quiet in general. I wish I could hook ubuntu up to some kind of amplifier.
[22:37] <PiLoT2> ok, well its picked up the device and itll go on the internet, only problem is itll block certain site (thanks to my provider) previous way around this was to change the apn but that isnt working anymore
[22:37] <CavalierPrime> musikgoat1  home is gonna be on the largest linux partition right?
[22:37] <woble> amikrop, dual booting with XP or Vista?
[22:37] <Mike_lifeguard> amikrop: You can always check what version you have with 'grub-install -v'
[22:37] <amikrop> woble: so, what should I do? it seems I have a broken menu.lst now
[22:37] <amikrop> woble: no
[22:37] <musikgoat1> CavalierPrime: no

[22:37] <musikgoat1> CavalierPrime: /home is what someone creates... its user dependent
[22:37] <woble> amikrop, just run supergrub, it will reconfigure your grub
[22:37] <amikrop> woble: grub-install (GNU GRUB 0.97)

[22:37] <infidx> how big should i make /home as a separate partition on a 40gb harddrive?
[22:37] <CavalierPrime> yes it is
[22:37] <amikrop> woble: and create a new menu.lst?
[22:38] <woble> yes, just reinstall grub, thats the easiest way to fix this
[22:38] <cidem> infidx: the question is more, how big / should be. I recommend 10 gb.
[22:38] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: you probably want 8GB for root, the rest for /home

[22:39] <Jordan_U> amikrop: If that doesn't work I would suggest upgrading to grub2 which is ( according to the developers at least ) more robust and from my experience easier to debug
[22:39] <JonathanEllis> amikrop: Here is some information I found useful in understanding grub and fixing some problems. http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/grub/grub.htm http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-grub-tutorial-howtos.html

[22:40] <Berzerker> ubuntu isn't finding my proprietary drivers, anyone know how to fix this?
[22:40] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: drivers for what?
[22:40] <Berzerker> my broadcom
[22:40] <hlias> bye and thanks!
[22:40] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: which broadcom.. didn't i give you a link on that earlier
[22:40] <Berzerker> IndyGunFreak: tried moblin remix, wireless drivers kinda worked, but the OS wasn't as good as UNR, so I went back to it, and now they can't find my broadcom drivers.
[22:40] <Jordan_U> Berzerker: Try "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter"
[22:40] <neohelix> is there a tool to ~easily~ undervolt my cpu? like the rmclock prog. i looked and only found ways to change the frequency, but not the voltage.
[22:40] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: is it 9.04 or 9.10?
[22:40] <l_r> did anyone see crashes in ubiquity when installing ubuntu 9.10?
[22:40] <Berzerker> Jordan_U: thanks, that's what I needed.
[22:41] <Berzerker> IndyGunFreak: 9.10
[22:41] <lewic> anybody know how to get lightning working again under 9.10?  was working under 9.04 before upgrade.
[22:41] <Jordan_U> Berzerker: np
[22:41] <woble> lewic, uninstall, and reinstall
[22:41] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: which broadcom is it?..
[22:41] <woble> lewic, that does the job
[22:41] <Berzerker> 4312
[22:41] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: http://jetpackweb.com/blog/2009/10/29/ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-and-broadcom-bcm4312/
[22:41] <woble> lewic, you can install lightning with the new ubuntu software center
[22:41] <Berzerker> that didn't work, I needed the b43 cutter drives, the ones Jordan_U linked.
[22:42] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: hmm, weird
[22:42] <nkei0> What's everyone think of Karmic as opposed to Jaunty?
[22:42] <lewic> wobble - tried uninstalling lightning and reinstalling again, but still no links to calendars.  Thunderbird shows it as installed
[22:42] <Berzerker> Jordan_U: that package doesn't exist, btw
[22:42] <neohelix> Also, what is the quick way to stop the WLAN LED from flickering by traffic... pretty annoying :(
[22:42] <IndyGunFreak> nkei0: well, if it goes good, its great.. if the upgrade breaks.. it sucks. :)
[22:43] <jrib> henkpoley: well the interface may be similar, but they aren't really the same thing.  Also, gnome-power-manager may fall back to straight conf files if it doesn't have gconf (not sure)
[22:43] <jrib> henkpoley: presumably since you can change SOME settings in the gui, it must fallback to something other than gconf
[22:43] <nkei0> IndyGunFreak, hah, well that's obvious.  I wanted a general consensus prior to attempting to break my system :(
[22:43] <klabezo> i change the sound card slot and i think the system can feel it now how can i setup it now to start hear the voice ?
[22:43] <IndyGunFreak> it works fine for me
[22:43] <amikrop> OK, let's take this from the beginning because I think I mislead you.
[22:43] <sebas891> hi folks, I would like to try the latest ubuntu release, but I don't have blank cdrom... I've blank dvd. can I burn a cd .iso on a dvd?
[22:43] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: its definitely in the repos.. check your sources.. cuz i've got it available
[22:43] <amikrop> I upgraded from 9.04 to karmic and I chose to keep my version of menu.lst.
[22:44] <IndyGunFreak> !info b43-fwcutter | Berzerker
[22:44] <henkpoley> jrib: I'm trying to set it up with gconf-editor by going with some bugreports about missing interface in Gnome going back to ubuntu 6.something
[22:44] <amikrop> But now, I have a new kernel (14) which is not in use because of my old menu.lst.
[22:44] <nkei0> sebas891, Yes.  Also, you can also make a bootable flashstick.
[22:44] <jrib> henkpoley: k
[22:44] <amikrop> How can I inform menu.lst of my new kernel?
[22:44] <amikrop> musikgoat1: that's all :)
[22:44] <blue0488> is there a audio program that lets me edit a lot of songs at once in other words increase the audio of all the songs at once I don't want to use audacity it only lets me edit 1 song at a time I know jet audio does what I want but it is a windows program and I would have to pay for it
[22:44] <henkpoley> jrib: apparently this worked
[22:44] <sebas891> nkei0: ok, thank, a bootable flashstick? can I do that easily?
[22:44] <jrib> henkpoley: cool (you should probably unchmod the file from before)
[22:45] <amikrop> Jordan_U: my only problem is "how can I inform menu.lst of my new kernel"?
[22:45] <Jordan_U> amikrop: sudo update-grub
[22:45] <nkei0> sebas891, Yeah, It's really easy to do.  As long as your bios supports it anyways.  If your computer was made anytime in the last decade you should be good.
[22:45] <JonathanEllis> I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 desktop on both my Dell Dimension 2400 desktop and Dell Latitude C610 laptop. On both machines the graphics does not work properly. On the Dimension I cant even login as the login screen is so blurry. On the Latitude I can logon but the screen has random broken green lines across the top and windows like firefox do not show the contents - only the outline and title bar. I had to install from the alternate CD as even the l
[22:45] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: isn't it update-grub2 ?
[22:45] <klabezo> i change the sound card slot and i think the system can feel it now how can i setup it now to start hear the voice ?
[22:45] <neohelix> sebas891: on the last install page you have to pick advanced and make sure GRUB is installed on the flash stick only, otherwise GRUB will he installed on your main harddisk
[22:45] <sebas891> nkei0: it's a macbook :)
[22:45] <infidx> can i make /home a separate partition even though linux is already installed with it not being separate? i want to separate /home right now, that when i format and install ubuntu 9.10 i won't lose my /home
[22:46] <henkpoley> jrib: in gconf-editor, go to /apps/gnome-power-manager/cpufreq, create a 'string' key named "policy_ac" give it "performance" as content --- just for the inevitable IRC logs that google will find
[22:46] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: Yes, I'll grab instructions for you...
[22:46] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak: update-grub is a symlink to update-grub2 if you have grub2 installed, so "sudo update-grub" should do the right thing with either grub legacy or grub2
[22:46] <neohelix> sebas891: i am running ubuntu from an external usb hdd right now, works good if you keep GRUB from your main disk ;)
[22:46] <erUSUL> infidx: there are a few good guides on the net on how to move home to a separate partition
[22:46] <henkpoley> jrib: this all reminds me of windows too much...
[22:46] <Mike_lifeguard> infidx: http://embraceubuntu.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[22:46] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak: And he is using legacy
[22:46] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I did that and failed to boot.
[22:46] <IndyGunFreak> ha, indeed.. didn't know that
[22:46] <mpweitekamp> I'm new to linux, and am having trouble with the cube effect on compiz any advice?
[22:46] <sebas891> neohelix: I just want a livecd. I don't wan to install it on the machine, since, it's not my machine.
[22:47] <colorlessprism> does anyone use an MSI Wind?
[22:47] <IndyGunFreak> it was more curiosity, not a correction...
[22:47] <jrib> henkpoley: gconf isn't really like the windows registry
[22:47] <Jordan_U> amikrop: Did you get an error message?
[22:47] <Mike_lifeguard> mpweitekamp: State what *kind* of trouble :)
[22:47] <jamieleshaw> Hello, I have an epc, with karmic netbook remix on it anyway i'm having trouble getting to do updates
[22:47] <nkei0> mpweitekamp, the cube is crap...
[22:47] <mpweitekamp> *not working haha
[22:47] <StrikerST> HI quick question... I want to find out the I/O Ranges for my VT6420 Chip... I have Ubuntu Device Manager but it doesnt give addresses... how can I do this?
[22:47] <Berzerker> IndyGunFreak: probably a sudo apt-get update would help with the proprietary drivers search
[22:47] <amikrop> Jordan_U: will that replace my menu.lst or create a menu.lst.new or something?
[22:47] <Mike_lifeguard> mpweitekamp: not working in *what way*? be specific please
[22:47] <Berzerker> IndyGunFreak: that which I did not do
[22:47] <henkpoley> jrib: I understand, but without key documentation it is pretty much the same
[22:47] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: would help.
[22:47] <erUSUL> infidx: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[22:47] <Mike_lifeguard> mpweitekamp: Does it crash compiz? does it crash X? Does it cause your computer to start smoking? Does it simply not rotate on command?
[22:47] <mpweitekamp> ok, how do u respond with someones name in this chat
[22:47] <henkpoley> jrib: teo me it's just a magic key
[22:47] <Berzerker> IndyGunFreak: do you also know about volume unmuting after waking up after hibernating?
[22:47] <Mike_lifeguard> !tab | mpweitekamp
[22:47] <sebas891> neohelix: i think the macbook cannot boot from usb.
[22:48] <jrib> henkpoley: fair enough, gnome policy requires the program to expose these :)
[22:48] <mpweitekamp> nope it doesnt crash, just doesnt work, thank u
[22:48] <klabezo> please some one help me to setup my sound card
[22:48] <amikrop> Jordan_U: I mean, should I manually delete my menu.lst and then run update-grub?
[22:48] <JonathanEllis> infidx: You can change your home to a separate partition if you want. Just boot from a liveCD and then move your home directory to another partition. Then change /etc/fstab to point to your new home partition and ensure you have an empty directory at /home to mount your home partition into
[22:48] <IndyGunFreak> Berzerker: ... i've not really paid attention to that one yet
[22:48] <StrikerST> Anyone on finding out the port for my VT6420 chip?
[22:48] <Mike_lifeguard> mpweitekamp: You may be better help in #compiz btw
[22:48] <Jordan_U> amikrop: You shouldn't need to but you can try that ( renaming it to menu.lst-bak is safer though )
[22:48] <neohelix> sebas891: ah sorry, too much information then :) When i tried booting from a DVD it didnt work...
[22:48] <mpweitekamp> ok, thank u
[22:48] <NemesisD> hey so i just updated my desktop to karmic and I'm finding that it drops to the old-style boot process where it shows all the services starting. it then starts flickering wildly
[22:49] <JonathanEllis> infidx: Alternatively you can just copy the home directory to another partition and then just copy the contents back again after install. Thats what I did and it was all fine.
[22:49] <Xcell> StrikerST-   maybe try sudo dmidecode
[22:49] <StrikerST> ok let me go try
[22:49] <henkpoley> jrib: to expose them there already is .. magic key (seriously), you create under /apps/gnome-power-manager/ui/ a key named "cpufreq_show", then it should appear.. under Gnome
[22:49] <StrikerST> im just looking for the port of my VT6420 chip
[22:49] <amikrop> Jordan_U: ok, I am trying that and reboot (I hope it works or I am out of my computer)
[22:49] <NemesisD> i found some people who had this problem, has to do with nvidia drivers not being recompiled and said to restart in recovery mode and dpkg-reconfigure them, but of course when i do that my keyboard doesn't work
[22:49] <sebas891> neohelix: from a dvd disc on a dvd rom with a cd iso burn on it ?
[22:49] <Xcell> it gives mobo stats and stuff
[22:49] <Berzerker> Jordan_U: is it better to use the b43 driver or STA driver?
[22:49] <mpweitekamp> Mike_lifeguard: thanks for ur help
[22:49] <klabezo> i ask many times my friend but no one help
[22:50] <klabezo> please some one help me to setup my sound card
[22:50] <iWolf> How do i register my nickname?
[22:50] <shooree> hi guys. I accidentaly removed my network status icon (the one in the upper panel by default) and can't seem to find it now. Any hints?
[22:50] <IndyGunFreak> !register | iWolf
[22:50] <erUSUL> shooree: alt 2 run "nm-applet"
[22:50] <erUSUL> shooree: alt + f2 run "nm-applet"
[22:51] <BenG92> I did a System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and got nothing
[22:51] <shooree> erUSUL, I did that, but it's not showing it
[22:51] <infidx> thanks Mike_lifeguard
[22:51] <BenG92> then did a System -> Administration -> System Testing
[22:51] <shooree> erUSUL, I did remove the upper applet though
[22:51] <IndyGunFreak> shooree: you probably accidentally removed notificaiton area.. right click panel, add to panel, add notificaiton area
[22:51] <nstc> Evolution doesn't want to decrypt my OpenPGP key confirmation e-mail although I enter what I'm told is the correct key. Any ideas?
[22:51] <erUSUL> shooree: do other inotification icons appear ?
[22:51] <Jordan_U> Berzerker: The STA driver may be better because it's made by broadcom, I would personally use the open source drivers but I have no experience with the STA drivers
[22:51] <shooree> right
[22:51] <rwg|desktop> How do you get a CD for Ubuntu?
[22:51] <not_shivan> hi, quick question, is there a app to control digital camera over usb ?
[22:51] <Berzerker> Jordan_U: ok, thanks.
[22:51] <erUSUL> shooree: add a notification area to the panel
[22:51] <BenG92> and found it recognises the wireless card as Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN
[22:51] <shooree> IndyGunFreak, erUSUL I believe that's it. notification area.
[22:52] <Jordan_U> Berzerker: np
[22:52] <BenG92> but can't get it to work
[22:52] <StrikerST> Dmidecode didnt work
[22:52] <StrikerST> =/
[22:52] <IndyGunFreak> shooree: erUSUL just copied me like he always does.. :)
[22:52] <Berzerker> Jordan_U: most are reporting the STA works a little better than the b43 drive.
[22:52] <Berzerker> r
[22:52] <StrikerST> Im trying to find out the port for my VT6420 chip... like on Windows when u go to device manager click on properties->resources u get the ports
[22:53] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Make sure that you have the restricted repository enabled in System > Administration > Software Sources
[22:53] <matu> hi
[22:53] <erUSUL> StrikerST: lspci -vv ... but i  can not think of a reason you need that info... ISA times are long gone
[22:53] <SunAdmin> hey, I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, and I am a wondering, where is the "menu.lst" grub config file in Ubuntu?
[22:53] <Jordan_U> BenG92: And also universe
[22:53] <erUSUL> IndyGunFreak: yep that's how i roll :)
[22:53] <BenG92> I have no idea what that means Jordan_U
[22:53] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[22:53] <matu> can you use nicotine ? for me it is crashing
[22:53] <Jordan_U> !grub2 | SunAdmin
[22:53] <shooree> IndyGunFreak, erUSUL ty both. This did the trick
[22:54] <Mike_lifeguard> SunAdmin: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:54] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Go to The System menu in the top of the screen then Administration > Software Sources
[22:54] <BenG92> ok
[22:54] <SunAdmin> brb - while I read it
[22:55] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Make sure that all of the boxes are checked in the first tab that comes up
[22:55] <BenG92> can you direct me through the whole process Jordan_U because im using vista, so im gonna write it down now
[22:55] <lantizia> Hey just popped 9.10 on my machine, the network is going very slow and only 1 of my monitors work... any tips?
[22:55] <neohelix> sebas891: i haven't tried it in ages, and even then it wasn't an ubuntu iso... so who knows, maybe it works. too bad there is nothing specific on the ubuntu download page
[22:55] <BenG92> ok
[22:55] <Alaric`> OK, now *this* is weird .......  the just-updated laptop's screen is now flickering on and off in sync with its HDD activity LED
[22:55] <klabezo> please some one help me to setup my sound card
[22:55] <StrikerST> erUSUL thanks man you got it
[22:56] <neohelix> sebas891: they offer a DVD iso, but on the CD iso page it doesn't say about burning it to a dvd...
[22:56] <l_r> PROBLEM! Ubiquity crashes near the end of the installation of ubuntu 9.10. Do you have any ideas?
[22:56] <edgar_> woahhh
[22:56] <klabezo> 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1978 Maestro 2E (rev 10)
[22:56] <erUSUL> StrikerST: no problem. still courios as to why you need that info
[22:56] <Jordan_U> BenG92: And you will need to be connected to the internet when enabling restricted and universe, and also when enabling the broadcom drivers in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[22:56] <woble> you know what really bugs me.. they still didnt change the "flickering WIFI leds" back
[22:56] <sebas891> neohelix: ok, I'll try to burn the Cd iso on a dvd... I don't want to download the dvd iso... thanks for the info.
[22:56] <BenG92> I can't connect to the internet
[22:56] <shooree> lantizia, all I can say is that my LAN also performs pathetically, but I can't determine the cause
[22:56] <StrikerST> needed to connect a device to my SATA and use the port to comm
[22:56] <milo__> i need ur help guys. Why can't i go into this website: http://www.sci.brooklyn.cuny.edu/~goetz/projects/logic/tests/seq2.swf ... im using ubuntu and im a new to linux :D
[22:57] <neohelix> sebas891: please tell us if it worked :)
[22:57] <StrikerST> through DOS

[22:58] <milo__> Thanks guys. I will go and take a look at it
[22:58] <Jordan_U> SunAdmin: Grub2 uses /boot/grub/grub.cfg instead, see the link I gave you earlier
[22:58] <SunAdmin> I do not see such a thing, but let me look again
[22:58] <shooree> lantizia, because I honestly don't know whether my problems are related to Karmic or the ISP. my WiFi works flawlessly.

[22:58] <maurer_> erenrich: Stop trolling.
[22:58] <lantizia> shooree, what is the make of your wired NIC?
[22:58] <SunAdmin> It has no menu stuff in it
[22:59] <shooree> lantizia, how do I check that
[22:59] <Mike_lifeguard> SunAdmin: pastebin 'ls -l /boot/grub' for me?
[22:59] <lantizia> shooree, run lspci
[22:59] <shooree> right
[22:59] <Mike_lifeguard> SunAdmin: p.defau.lt
[22:59] <Jordan_U> Mike_lifeguard: He is using grub2, he has no menu.lst
[22:59] <BenG92> Jordan_U i can't connect to the internet at all, except through the wireless card which isn't working...
[22:59] <JonathanEllis> From googling it seems that visual effects might be what is causing my problem. What config file do I edit to disable them permanently without having to go to a gui?

[23:00] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard hi is me ubunu how i do the  fstab my /home drive????
[23:00] <SunAdmin> that link was wrong
[23:00] <SunAdmin> and there is no menu.lst there
[23:00] <SunAdmin> so I asked again hoping to get the right answer
[23:00] <SunAdmin> it dont exist there, the guy is wrong
[23:00] <FloodBot1> SunAdmin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:00] <River> I have upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and now have no networking at all. I used to run wic but that has been removed and there is no network manager to be found either.
[23:00] <Mike_lifeguard> SunAdmin: You're looking for grub.cfg (which, btw, you *don't* edit by hand)
[23:00] <lantizia> shooree, not the same as mine, I'm a realtek - was just a theory
[23:00]  * SunAdmin hey, I just installed ubuntu 9.10, and I am a wondering, where is the "menu.lst" grub config file in ubuntu?
[23:00] <CavalierPrime> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[23:00] <erUSUL> shooree: you have to install b43-fwcutter while conected to internet by other means

[23:00] <erUSUL> skooz: grub2 do not use menu.lst. read the docs i linked

[23:05] <electrod> hello, I recently installed Ubuntu 64AMD release from a live cd that i put on my USb. But when i installed the drivers for my graphics card which is nvidia. And I rebooted my pc. and logged in. A black screen came up and said signal out of range. Can someone tell me how to fix
[23:05] <lantizia> any way of getting some useful information?

[23:07] <Catalin> is there anyone here who can assit me?

[23:07] <klabezo> please some one help me to setup my sound card
[23:07] <Alaric`> lantizia, that sounds like it explains my problem ....   and no reason for nvidoa to even be installed on this machine, it doesn't have an nvidia card
[23:08] <towner> just checking my xubuntu!
[23:08] <sebsebseb> Catalin: Konversation is a nice Xchat alternative :)
[23:08] <neohelix> i'll try the autoremove first... man, KDE has really changed since i tried it the last time, and not in a good way :(
[23:08] <lantizia> Alaric`, well in older releases X would try to start 5 times then give you a reason why it failed then stop trying - this just keeps flashing as tho it never stops trying... have to go into recovery mode instead, can't even log in properly
[23:08] <NemesisD> hello?
[23:08] <lantizia> there appears to be serious problems with 9.10

[23:09] <electrod> anyone help me?
[23:09] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: And the rest of /etc/fstab?
[23:09] <rubymonk> upgrade to 9.10 didn't work... (first kernel in grub menu hangs, second works but no mouse in the GUI) Is there any way to revert back?
[23:09] <Sertse> what do you edit to change console/framebuffer resolution in grub2?

[23:10] <electrod> thank you
[23:10] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard, yes
[23:10] <NemesisD> is there any possible way to get rid of the stupid menu that comes up in recovery console? i need to recompile the nvidia drivers, .31 kernel flickers on boot, can't get to a console and recovery mode for .31 disables my keyboard. if I use my old kernel, i can get in just fine but then I obviously can't install a driver for the new kernel

[23:10] <waldir> Hi... I just updated to 9.10 and now the sound is not working anymore.. what should I do?
[23:10] <rubymonk> ok, I'll reinstall
[23:10] <chai_> hi all... i did a silly thing. my sound was working perfectly, then i tried to install the realtek HD audio driver from source, and now I only have null outputs in gmix... how do i "reinstall" my audio or set it back to defaults?
[23:10] <rubymonk> BTW, why xorg.conf is almost empty?
[23:10] <corinth> Someone remind me how to check if I've installed 32-bit or 64-bit?
[23:10] <erUSUL> corinth: uname -m
[23:10] <sebsebseb> electrod: Well hopefuly it's helpful, but  ATI  does not have good Linux support

[23:11] <River> I have no network after the upgrade, how do I reinstate my wired eth connection ? there is no network manager applet
[23:11] <corinth> erUSUL, thanks.
[23:11] <sebsebseb> River: no ethernet?
[23:11] <milo__> I installed everything u guys advised but i still can't get to the website :(
[23:11] <River> sebsebseb,  nothing ... used to run wicd, now that is removed and no network manager either

[23:12] <cowgarden> aww, sry :)
[23:12] <sebsebseb> River: Ok sounds like the upgrade has gone bad,  I suggest  getting the ISO for 9.10,  md5sum checking it, and then burning the contents to CD.   Then check if the Internet works or not on the CD.  When I upgraded the other computer from 8.04 to 8.10  I lost the ethernet, I thought upgrade had just gone wrong, but it woudn't work on the Live CD either.  9.04 it works though
[23:13] <sebsebseb> !md5sum | River

[23:13] <markITman> 't access any websites for info on how to fix.
[23:14] <River> sebsebseb, I already have a desktop cd of an earlier beta but for i386 but that hsoul dbe fine... what do you want to prove ?
[23:14] <sebsebseb> River: and if the ethernet works on the CD for 9.10 great,  install it,  wel that's easier then trying to get your ethernet working in  the install you got now

[23:15] <LinuxGuy2009> Im having trouble using "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" to install a folder of an app and all deps downloaded with a synaptic download script. Specifically folders of ardour, qjackctl, meterbridge. Its breaking packages for an unknown reason. Might be a bug but Im not sure. Anyone know anything?
[23:15] <Mike_lifeguard> ( I got distracted by waldir :D )
[23:15] <phil-99> Hi all.  I'm mid-upgrade to Karmic from Jaunty and the upgrade has stopped at "Disabling Laptop Mode" for ~5mins now. Anyone got any suggestions on what to do now?
[23:16] <LinuxGuy2009> Ive used download scripts for like 20 other apps and there deps with no hangups at all.
[23:16] <waldir> sorry, Mike_lifeguard :P
[23:16] <LordFDisk> electrod,  try the package envyng-gt and see if that helps
[23:16] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: You'll need to delete the contents of /home that the installer created (on the root partition)
[23:16]  * Mike_lifeguard patpats waldir :D
[23:16] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard how would i do that????
[23:16] <skinnystaro> hey all, i'm having problems with pidgin, it keeps force closing when i try to join this channel
[23:16] <BenG92> Jordan_U how are the instructions coming?
[23:16] <sebsebseb> phil-99: Quite a few people have had issues after upgrading, but in your case  the upgrade has crashed or something.
[23:16] <erUSUL> !nvidia | electrod
[23:17] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Almost done :)
[23:17] <BenG92> =)
[23:17] <River> sebsebseb, I need toget it going in this install, many important things running on it including a development environment running windows xp virtulised under virtualbox etc
[23:17] <aquachica> Hi everyone. Any news on how to fix the audio in Karmic? I upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic. Sound preferences does not see my audio device, but "aplay -l" does.
[23:17] <sebsebseb> phil-99: 9.10 is a good one to clean install anyway,   Ext4 by default and Grub 2 for clean installs
[23:17] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard what i have to do first??
[23:17] <lanzelloth> hi guys, how can I get the newest gnome-do in 9.04
[23:17] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard should i delete everything from fstab and copy and paste what u send me into the fstab?????
[23:17] <kermit> skinnystaro: do you have the history plugin in on?
[23:17] <phil-99> sebsebseb: I was hoping not to have to do that :-)  Oh well!
[23:17] <tado> anybody with ideas on to solve a rendering issue on openoffice with karmic? can't find much online....
[23:17] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Use a liveCD, mount the root partition, cd /home and remove the contents (rm -r whatever
[23:17] <kermit> skinnystaro: -in
[23:17] <Mike_lifeguard> )
[23:17] <skinnystaro> kermit: yeah, probably, is it buggy?
[23:17] <sebsebseb> River: I don't know enough about networking to be able to help properly, good luck though
[23:18] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Yeah, you can replace your current fstab with that, I just aligned the other lines nicely
[23:18] <reti> I just burned the 9.10 cd, and everytime I try to install, it always freezes. occasionally the live cd freezes as well
[23:18] <aquachica> tado: What type of rendering issues are you having?
[23:18] <klabezo_> please help me to setup my sound card i can't hear any voice
[23:18] <sebsebseb> !md5sum |  reti
[23:18] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: MAKE SURE your home partition isn't mounted when you delete that stuff! You don't want to delete anything from that partition, only what the installer made on the root partition
[23:18] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard if i replace your current fstab with that i don't need the livecd? do i?
[23:18] <kermit> skinnystaro: well, this channel generates a lot of scoll, and history will try to load the entire last log in something like O(n^4) speed, which for me would cause it to freeze
[23:18] <brunoscunha> each time I try to burn the karmic koala iso the cd or dvd does not boot at all. I burn as slow as 3x
[23:18] <eido> is there an easy way to save my panels  and font options for xfce?  I want to install 9.10 but do not want to do the upgrade
[23:18] <kermit> skinnystaro: but anyway, turnt that off and i bet it'll work
[23:19] <reti> sebsebseb: I did the verify image option in the menu, and it said it was correct
[23:19] <sebsebseb> !md5sum |  brunoscunha
[23:19] <tado> aquachica: the menu looks a bit fuzzy, like out of focus, the text too, and when i select text it looks like the orange is covering the text in a wierd way... a bit difficult to explain. maybe i should attach a print screen?
[23:19] <hyku> dsaf'
[23:19] <aquachica> klabezo: Neither can I.  Karmic Gnome Sound Preferences is not seeing my audio device.  And I have tried a lot ways to fix it.
[23:19] <erUSUL> eido: make a backup of your home folder ?
[23:19] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard "Use a liveCD, mount the root partition, cd /home and remove the contents (rm -r whatever" is there other way removing that ?>
[23:19] <sebsebseb> reti: the menu does the psyical CD, not the ISO you downloaded
[23:19] <skinnystaro> kermit: cheers, i'll give that a shot, ircii feels a little hardcore for me ;)
[23:19] <Jordan_U> BenG92: First Download these files and put them on a flash drive so you can put them on your networkless machine: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_012-1_i386.deb http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-<IP_ADDRESS>.o http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2

[23:19] <brunoscunha> thank you
[23:19] <Strywgr> skinny, try xchat.
[23:19] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Well, you still need to delete /home from the root partition either way - I'm not sure how much ubuntu will like doing that while you're logged in
[23:19] <kermit> brunoscunha: can you read the cd?
[23:19] <hacim> my X is screwed up
[23:19] <reti> sebsebseb: ok, i'll take a look at it
[23:19] <eido> erUSUL, yeah I thought that but was hoping to trim the fat off it
[23:20] <sebsebseb> brunoscunha: np
[23:20] <aquachica> tado: I think I understand. I had something similar happen to me in 9.04 with Abiword.  I think it might be the video driver.

[23:20] <Slart> VLC keeps crashing on me and my newly installed 64bit karmic.. it seems to be a known problem from several months ago.. but I can't find any solutions for it.. any hints?

[23:20] <LordFDisk> sebsebseb, Do you know where I can get the md5sum for the 1386 and 64bit DVD?

[23:20] <brunoscunha> kermit: yes I can. all files are the

[23:20] <NemesisD> argh does anyone know how to compile the linux driver for another kernel without having that kernel loaded?
[23:20] <BoredKender> LordFDisk, why are you using the dvd's? they just have more languages that you dont need
[23:21] <brunoscunha> with other ubuntu releases i never had this problem
[23:21] <NemesisD> i can't get into the new kernel without nvidia drivers, can't compile nvidia drivers without using the new kernel
[23:21] <Flakeparadigm> I have samba shares set up on a computer and I can view them on another linux computer but windows7 can't view them. How can I fix that?
[23:21] <eido> channels always dead but thanks, I'll just backup the home folder
[23:21] <aquachica> I am starting to think that Karmic is Ubuntu's Vista.
[23:21] <tado> aquachica: ok... any idea on how to solve it? i had an issue also with the fonts in firefox when i upgraded, but i fixed quickly
[23:21] <Berzerker> lol no
[23:21] <BBB> I don't see any pages detailing the differences of this new release from 9.04. Is there any?
[23:21] <LordFDisk> BoredKender,  I downloaded them all
[23:21] <Berzerker> Karmic is probably the best distro of Ubuntu I've ever used.
[23:21] <kin> hey all, is there a way i can clean up gnome after a new install with an old home p?artition
[23:22] <Xcell> my karmic is 3 weeks old.. ive used all other distros.. this one kicks butt.
[23:22] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard i'm not sure if its working I've copy and paste to
[23:22] <ak47> the fset
[23:22] <Xcell> it has a smoothness
[23:22] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard, fstab and save it

[23:22] <ghabit> Hello. Help me please - how I can burn the full mirror to dvd's?
[23:22] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard, what is the next step?
[23:22] <ghabit> Is some software available for it?
[23:22] <carpediem> kin: look at the hidden folders, the ones that start with .   cleaning them out would reset everything.
[23:22] <miromanyth> It's either Ubuntu or Arch. The 2 best distros right now.
[23:23] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Did you remove /home from the root partition (not the /home partition)?
[23:23] <sebsebseb> LordFDisk:  reti  brunoscunha  http://releases.ubuntu.com/md5sum and then it's one of those files for the md5sum code  that your ISO needs to be
[23:23] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard how?
[23:23] <sebsebseb> uh
[23:23] <brunoscunha> sebsebseb: thank you, i'll check
[23:23] <sebsebseb> LordFDisk:   reti  Berzerker  http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10
[23:23] <sansei> what's a good backup system to copy whole partitions to backup images?

[23:23] <erUSUL> sansei: partimage
[23:23] <Flakeparadigm> How can I get windows 7 to see my samba shares on my ubuntu computer?

[23:24] <Uuu> Hi, I just upgraded to Karmic and I wonder why apt installs recommended packages too (I know how to change it, so that's not the questiion). Is it something new in Karmic, Jaunty or Intrepid, or I missed such a configuration was even before?
[23:24] <carpediem> kin: then what specifically are you looking to do?
[23:24] <Guest18457> Hi, after upgrading to 9.10 I'm unable to use the 1280x1024 resolution and am stuck with 800x600.  This higher resolution is not available in system>pref>display.  I tried Karmic livecd with the correct md5 but this did not fix it.  There was originally no xorg.conf, so I tried to make one, first using dexconf and then using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but these did nothing.  Finally I created one using Xorg --configure but this was s
[23:24] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: sudo -i && rm -rf /home (PLEASE be careful your /home directory isn't mounted or you will lose everything you care about!)
[23:24] <erUSUL> Uuu: it was changed in jaunty iirc
[23:24] <kin> carpediem: just a cleaning utility i guess
[23:24] <sansei> erUSUL: thanks
[23:24] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard oh no can i undo what i copy and paste
[23:24] <IRConan> anyone else had trouble with the installer not picking up disks?
[23:25] <reti> sebsebseb: my iso has that md5sum, is there a way to test the disc after it's been written?
[23:25] <carpediem> kin: but, specifically what do you want to clean
[23:25] <Guest18457> Then I tried modifying this bare xorg.conf file, but I couldn't get it to work even though I know all of the monitor specifications (horz scan range, vert scan range, optimal preset resolution, etc).
[23:25] <Uuu> erUSUL: Ah, that's the case. Thanks. I think this option's not good and it's one thing i dislike in aptitude most (but it can be change, good).
[23:25] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: editing fstab doesn't mount anything yet
[23:25] <erUSUL> Uuu: there is a way, i forgot about, to change the default...

[23:25] <sebsebseb> reti: burn it slow,  and  then you can also do the psyical CD  check  option on the CD
[23:25] <kin> carpediem: or perhaps some kind of guide to what gnome settings reside in what folder. at the moment, i'm a bit frustrated with menus
[23:25] <zcat[1]> Mike_lifeguard:  I usually prefer to mv /home /oldhome ; mkdir /home or similar.. once i'm sure things are right I can rm -rf /oldhome
[23:25] <tado> aquachica: ok, i changed it and moved it back and the fonts look fine. any idea about the text selection? that doesn't look good yet
[23:26] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard ok what next
[23:26] <Uuu> erUSUL: I know, thanks :) I think I'll change it soon. Have a nice day!
[23:26] <BenG92> Jordan_U what now?
[23:26] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: reboot and hope for the best :P
[23:26] <carpediem> kin: I can tell you where almost every setting lives, but really, have to be more specific than "gnome"
[23:26] <kin> carpediem: think i trawl gnome docs a bit, thanks for your time
[23:26] <reti> sebsebseb: is there a way to md5sum it after i write it, not in the burning software?
[23:26] <brian183> Hi, I installed ubuntu 9.10 and i'm having occasional wireless connection drops while streaming live video or music.  dmesg states "ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo".  Does anyone have an idea how to resolve before I try and install madwifi?

[23:26] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Now I have to test that the script I made works, then I will give it to you and tell you how to use it :)
[23:27] <BenG92> ok :)
[23:27] <sebsebseb> LordFDisk: did a gedit??
[23:27] <rogerio> hi, a have a problem with sound in the Karmic (9.10), after upgrade ubuntu my sound dont work
[23:27] <aquachica> tado: I think that part would have to do with the video driver. In 9.04, I had to wait for fix before everything went back to normal. I hate to say it, but you might have to do the same with 9.10. :(
[23:27] <zcat[1]> Mike_lifeguard:  btw rm -rf /home removes the /home mountpoint too; I think you forgot to mention mkdir /home again?
[23:27] <sebsebseb> reti: if you still have the ISO   you can  md5sum check it, not in the burning software
[23:27] <enatom_> What is Avant window navigator ?
[23:27] <enatom_> What does avant window navigator do ?
[23:27] <aquachica> rogerio: Join the club. Karmic seems to enjoy making everyone deaf.
[23:27] <natewiebe> enatom_: it is a dock
[23:27] <LordFDisk> you can look at whats it's going to check with gedit
[23:27] <Xcell> its like macs desktop icon setup
[23:28] <sebsebseb> reti: Windows you install a program for that,  Desktop Linux you do it in the terminal
[23:28] <tado> aquachica: to explain a bit better: the text doesn't remain black highlighted in orange, if i select it. it's like if the orangeish selection is on top of the text and partially hides it
[23:28] <iceroot> enatom_: have a look at the project page to see
[23:28] <natewiebe> enatom_: if you want a dock, i would suggest using gnome-do
[23:28] <ak47> IT work
[23:28] <Xcell> you can do the same thing with gnome-do
[23:28] <aliencoder> Hello, I have a problem I installed adobe flashplugin, it looks like there is a problem with the package, I can't un-install or re-install it with synaptic or aptitude any ideas??
[23:28] <ak47> hip hip parrrry
[23:28] <skooz> erUSUL: am i supposed to install grub2
[23:28] <reti> sebsebseb: yes, i do have the iso, but I'm trying to check the actual CD that I burned, can I md5sum the live CD while running live ubuntu?
[23:28] <tado> aquachica: sorry, didn't read your last message before sending mine
[23:28] <Pizza1337> wow, the name are not showing up where they are suppose to be..
[23:28] <aquachica> tado: That's okay.
[23:28] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Are you sure? zcat[1] is right - I forgot to tell you to make /home so you can mount the partition there :\
[23:28] <aliencoder> I downloaded the package from Adobe
[23:28] <zcat[1]> btw I think ubuntu gets more broken with every release. I am not impressed with karmic so far.
[23:28] <sebsebseb> reti: no don't think so
[23:29] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard how i do that
[23:29] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Download this and put it on the flash drive also: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=f35887662
[23:29] <enatom_> i installed Tweak ubuntu and a dock already came, then afterwards i instaled avant window navigator iceroot natewiebe
[23:29] <aliencoder> ??
[23:29] <tado> aquachica: thanks anyway. it's already a lot better
[23:29] <aquachica> tado: It's one of those things that you have to wait to have it fixed.  I am not a big fan on it.
[23:29] <sebsebseb> reti: if you have the ISO,  md5sum the ISO that you have,  and also do the psyical CD check on the CD you burnt
[23:29] <aquachica> tado: I am glad to hear that.
[23:29] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: Did you reboot already? Are you sure the /home partition is mounted properly?
[23:29] <steve2> Hi, I have a problem with java rmiregistry after update to karmic.
[23:29] <sebsebseb> reti: on the running Live CD you can mdsum the ISO
[23:29] <Flakeparadigm> How can I get windows 7 to see my samba shares on my ubuntu computer?
[23:29] <Zer0reZ> i'm coming from a Mac background, what is the app best suited to convert an m4a to mp3?
[23:29] <erUSUL> skooz: sorry the gru2 factoid was not meant for you. i made a mistake and confused you. really sorry
[23:29] <iceroot> Flakeparadigm: ##windows
[23:29] <natewiebe> enatom_: cool.. but i prefer using gnome-do for a dock.. it works great
[23:29] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Name that file "broadcom_firmware.sh"
[23:29] <AphisOne> how do I get swap out of read only mode?
[23:30] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard ya i'have all my settings back and files
[23:30] <sebsebseb> !ogg |  Zer0reZ
[23:30] <BenG92> ok
[23:30] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: OK, I guess it worked then :)
[23:30] <ak47> BUT something not right.
[23:30] <natewiebe> anyone here running google chrome for linux?
[23:30] <skooz> erUSUL: bummer i was woundering
[23:30] <brunoscunha> sebsebseb: the md5sum checks out
[23:30] <erUSUL> natewiebe: me
[23:30] <Zer0reZ> sebas891, i know of ogg, i asked for mp3 for a reason

[23:30] <sebsebseb> brunoscunha: yes they do usaulley, but not always
[23:30] <LordFDisk> sebsebseb,  you can download the md5sum and then right click and open the md5sum to look at what it's going to look for ... and there's no DVD because that md5sum is only for CD-Rom Iso's  not DVD's
[23:30] <natewiebe> erUSUL: the version from their dev channel?
[23:30] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Then on your networkless machine copy all of those file to the desktop and run "sudo sh Desktop/broadcom_firmware.sh"
[23:31] <rogerio> I remove pulse, and use this command sudo alsa force-reload and receive this response: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/rogerio/.gvfs

[23:31] <rogerio> any ideia?

[23:31] <BenG92> how do i run it?
[23:31] <aliencoder> Hello, I have a problem I installed adobe flashplugin, it looks like there is a problem with the package, I can't un-install or re-install it with synaptic or aptitude any ideas??
[23:31] <aliencoder> I downloaded the package from Adobe
[23:31] <sebsebseb> LordFDisk: The DVD version only has extra languages on it as far as I know. You can also burn a CD version to DVD.
[23:31] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: For what partition/filesystem?!
[23:31] <iceroot> !who | BenG92
[23:31] <skooz> erUSUL: do you want to help me?
[23:31] <natewiebe> sagaci: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[23:31] <aquachica> rogerio: When I use that command, I get a similar error.  You might want to check your Sound Perference to see if the hardware is being detected.
[23:32] <sebsebseb> brunoscunha: How much RAM?
[23:32] <natewiebe> erUSUL: how stable is it?
[23:32] <brunoscunha> 1.5 gigas
[23:32] <BoredKender> rogerio,
[23:32] <ak47> Mike_lifeguard,  both off my ntfs file system
[23:32] <Jordan_U> BenG92: Then reboot and you should have wireless
[23:32] <sebsebseb> brunoscunha: ok should boot with that
[23:32] <aquachica> rogerio: It it shows it, you should be able to use the sound, but only for that session.  When you reboot, the sound goes away, at least in my case.
[23:32] <BenG92> Jordan_U How do i run it?
[23:32] <BoredKender> oops

[23:32] <Jordan_U> BenG92: copy all of those file to the desktop and run "sudo sh Desktop/broadcom_firmware.sh"
[23:32] <Mike_lifeguard> ak47: You may need to install some ntfs utils... I forget what the exact package name is called, hold on...

[23:40] <rogerio> aquachica, BoredKender, thanks at moment, I go reeinstall pulse and make a teste with a BoredKender's tip
[23:40] <fokuslee302> i am using the alternative cd everything was ok until the part about installing boot loader, both lilo and grub failed to install
[23:40] <Deihmos> i changed a bunch of them but never got it to look as good as windows
[23:40] <kudi> should i check the news log to see why my computer crashed
[23:40] <Mike_lifeguard> fokuslee302: That's certainly possible, so we'll need to know what the exact problem is

[23:40] <gentooiste47> how can I update my update my rtorrent version (to 0.8.5) ? I think the version in repositories isn't up to date (0.8.2) I'm with ubuntu 9.04
[23:40] <BoredKender> rogerio, let me know, and post your findings in the thread please
[23:41] <natewiebe> Deihmos: i prefer using URW Gothic/Futura, it fits well with the dust theme
[23:41] <aliencoder> iceroot, what else should I try? I am using the new 9.10 version, clean install
[23:41] <TheCheeze> rogerio, there, should be easier to find me now lol
[23:41] <AphisOne> erUSUL: sorry it was the /boot partition that is read-only... but the mount shows it as rw
[23:41] <erUSUL> AphisOne: that's the root filesystem. linux mounts filesystem read only when it finds an error in them during boot. boot into a livecd and pass a fsck to the filesystems to see what's going on
[23:41] <erUSUL> AphisOne: s/root/boot/ then
[23:41] <_PiLoT_> i can connect to the home network but not the the drives

[23:45] <Mike_lifeguard> RenatoSilva: You can ask here
[23:45] <iceroot> aliencoder: why not using the repo version?
[23:45] <RenatoSilva> Mike_lifeguard: actually it's changed already, and I wouldn't call it that easy. The brown thing is in a few places, and I'm asking this now just because Karmic stupidly removed my login theme and replaced it with that default login screen which is brown (!) and which I can't find a way to change
[23:45] <_PiLoT_> was that directed at my ik3
[23:45] <aliencoder> they didn't have a version for 9.10 just 8.04
[23:45] <Spoom> Guest18457, well, at least i'm not the only one seeing this issue
[23:45] <aliencoder> iceroot, didn't think of that, it automatically took me to their webpage
[23:45] <iceroot> aliencoder: you install flash for 8.04 on 9.10?
[23:45] <RenatoSilva> MrKlown: ah ok, good to know
[23:45] <Mike_lifeguard> RenatoSilva: gdm login screen was rewritten - I'm not sure how or if it supports skinning at present. I guess you can downgrade
[23:45] <erUSUL> AphisOne: ahh ok. any modern linux livecd (the ubuntu desktop version) would do
[23:46] <aliencoder> iceroot, yeah, I know too late now :-(
[23:46] <RenatoSilva> Mike_lifeguard: are you an ubuntu developer?
[23:46] <Spoom> Guest18457, do you know how to get the theme to show the application icons?  i've looked through the appearance settings and it doesn't appear that there's an option for it
[23:46] <Mike_lifeguard> RenatoSilva: no
[23:46] <johnfg> hi guys
[23:46] <aquachica> Pulseaudio bug fix didn't work for me.  Sound Preferences still doesn't see my hardware.  When I select Alsa and test, I do get a beep.
[23:46] <ik3> sorry bot u r right :P
[23:46] <Guest18457> Spoom: no sorry i'm a noob trying to figure out how to change my screen resolution
[23:46] <dios_mio> the network icon is broken man.. it shows unplugged
[23:46] <RenatoSilva> Mike_lifeguard: downgrade the whole system just to solve the brown thing? I'd rather use Windows
[23:46] <Copywriter> hello my fellow ubuntu users
[23:46] <AphisOne> erUSUL: I have a Ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD
[23:47] <JoeSomebody> hi, can someone recommend a nvidia pci express 512 or better video card linux ready?
[23:47] <Copywriter> i'm quite pleased with the new version
[23:47] <TheCheeze> aquachica, if you do get a beep then it should woprk. just disregard sound prefferences
[23:47] <kudi> can this cause the system to freeze? Nov  1 18:25:49 ubuntu gdm-simple-greeter[1104]: devkit-power-gobject-WARNING: Error invoking GetAll() to get properties: The name org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power was not provided by any .service files
[23:47] <gentooiste47> they recommend my to compile the new rtorrent version and that's not the bast way in ubuntu i think   ! :s is there another way to get the last rtorrent ,
[23:47] <RenatoSilva> whta is the dev channel for ubuntu? the other channels
[23:47] <johnfg> I just installed karmic, and grub doesn't boot the system.  I wasn't asked anything in the install, so don't know what happened.
[23:47] <Mike_lifeguard> RenatoSilva: No, downgrade just that bit
[23:47] <johnfg> Is it a newer grub?
[23:47] <Manifest1> Hello, can anyone help me? When I try to move a window, it freezes my computer. Why?
[23:47] <Copywriter> it really tailored to newbies like me
[23:47] <erUSUL> AphisOne: that would do
[23:47] <Safe> How do I tell nautilus to always open up rar-files with a special command? Just %s doesn't cut it. Specifically, it's something like 'program -option *.rar | program -'.
[23:47] <TheCheeze> aquachica, get the gnome alsa mixer out of the repository for control
[23:47] <dios_mio> johnfg, yes grub 2.0 i hear
[23:47] <aquachica> TheCheeze: The problem is that I still do not hear audio when I play files.
[23:47] <johnfg> Is there not a menu.lst any more?
[23:47] <RenatoSilva> Mike_lifeguard: the gdm package? I don't know if canonical will support the old gdm in Karmic
[23:47] <TheCheeze> aquachica, gotcha. did you try changing the hardware profiles?
[23:47] <iceroot> johnfg: not at grub2
[23:47] <Manifest1> Can anyone help me or what?
[23:47] <aliencoder> iceroot, problem is I can't even open the .deb package it fails
[23:48] <aquachica> TheCheeze: How do I do both?
[23:48] <MrKlown> OMG, pidgin is making me mad, it keeps messing up with the scrolling
[23:48] <Mike_lifeguard> RenatoSilva: I'm sure they don't, but that doesn't mean you can't do it :)
[23:48] <erUSUL> !grub2 | johnfg
[23:48] <infidx> when i type 'rdesktop infid-pc' it just hangs for a couple minutes then says it couldnt connect, but this is on my LAN and i have remote desktop enabled in vista. any ideas?
[23:48] <NemesisD> can sone one PLEASE help me? with the new kernel on karmic the boot screen drops out and starts flickering like crazy, i can't get to a terminal to do anything about it
[23:48] <TheCheeze> aquachica, and what sound card do you have?
[23:48] <Xcell> JoeSomebody-  nvidia 8600 or higher
[23:48] <_PiLoT_> can anyone help me i can connect to my home network but cant get access to the share hdds. its mentions something about getting a list of shared files from the server
[23:48] <iceroot> aliencoder: but it was correctly installed?
[23:48] <aquachica> TheCheeze: HDA Intel
[23:48] <Mike_lifeguard> johnfg: Karmic uses grub2, but it doesn't automatically upgrade grub when upgrading releases. You'll have to do that yourself
[23:48] <NemesisD> lol oh wait there it goes :P
[23:48] <aliencoder> iceroot, it didn't give an error
[23:48] <Spoom> Guest18457, ah, it's all good (also, System -> Preferences -> Display)
[23:48] <NemesisD> ok different question: how do i prevent the ugly text-log boot screen from superceding the visual one?
[23:48] <aliencoder> iceroot, though I think firefox froze, but not sure that it's the reason
[23:48] <JoeSomebody> Xcell thx
[23:48] <Manifest1> Mike_lifeguard: The help you gave me earlier helped
[23:48] <ik3> johnfg, now its called grub.cfg, same thing
[23:49] <eno> Any way to disable DCC and EDID? Karmic won't boot without an attached monitor!
[23:49] <TheCheeze> aquachica, in the Multimedia Systems Selector, change the "device" pulldown to other things listed there and test them all
[23:49] <Mike_lifeguard> Manifest1: Great! thanks for letting me know :D
[23:49] <iceroot> aliencoder: use dpkg -r packagename without .deb
[23:49] <aliencoder> iceroot, and when I checked in about:plugins in firefox it didn't show up
[23:49] <Xcell> JoeSomebody-  newegg.com
[23:49] <Manifest1> Mike_lifeguard: No problem, now I just need to fix the problem with the windows :(
[23:49] <JoeSomebody> yep :)
[23:49] <Guest18457> Spoom: thanks, but there is more drama involved -- the resolution is not listed, so I have to make an xorg.conf, but the tools for doing this aren't working, etc.
[23:49] <Spoom> Guest18457, ah, that's always fun... i think i remember doing that when i first moved to ubuntu
[23:49] <aliencoder> iceroot, dpkg: error processing adobe-flashplugin (--remove):

[23:51] <Spoom> hi folks, after upgrading from jaunty to karmic yesterday, all of my windows no longer have their application icon, which is to say, the icon in the upper-left corner of every window is a grey circle rather than the icon for the application; googling around hasn't helped and this doesn't seem to be a common issue (checked the release notes yesterday and didn't see anything); i've looked through the Appearance settings dialog and haven'
[23:51] <Spoom> t found anything relevant; any ideas?
[23:51] <TheCheeze> aquachica, i am sorry, i have to go get supper ready for the kids. pm me and keep me updated if you want and i can try to help more when i get back

[23:53] <dublued2> hi all, i'm doing a clean install of 9.10.  i want to specify a separate partition for the home folder.  do i do that after the installation is done or somewhere along the way?
[23:54] <Manifest> Can anyone help me?
[23:54] <amcsi> how do I reinstall the ubuntu GNOME 9.10 boot sequence? I upgraded ubuntu to 9.10 while I had xubuntu-desktop installed on top of my ubuntu, which messed things up.
[23:54] <Manifest> Can anyone help me?
[23:54] <portuguesemafia> dublued along the way
[23:54] <Mike_lifeguard> dublued2: You should do it at install time
[23:54] <muri_one> is there a gnome-panel applet in the repos that shows me my cpu usage?
[23:54] <Manifest> Mike_lifeguard: Do you think you can help me further? With the window issue?
[23:54] <portuguesemafia> are you doing a double boot
[23:54] <Mike_lifeguard> Manifest: Maybe... can you take a screenshot and post it somewhere so I know what you're referring to?
[23:55] <LinuxGuy2009> What do I do when I use gdebi to install a package manually and it throws a message that its dependency is conflicting with it? jack audio connection kit is the package Im speaking of.
[23:55] <Alaric`> OK, problem here I don't seem to be able to find a cause for.  Post-9.10 upgrade, if allowed to boot normally, X doesn't start, laptop screen blinks on and off in sync with HDD activity LED.  In recovery mode, can't start X.
[23:55] <rogerio> TheCheeze, in the multimedia selector, the combo of device is disabled
[23:55] <dublued2> Mike_lifeguard:  do i select manual partitioning?  or the automatic one?

[23:57] <ZykoticK9> amikrop, did you also check - System / Preferences / Power Management, and verify that Display is set to Never on AC Power? Something else to check anyways.  Good luck.

[23:58] <Mike_lifeguard> Manifest: ALT+F2 -> 'metacity --replace' and let me know if it happens while you aren't using compiz
[23:58] <Manifest> Mike_lifeguard: Ok
[23:58] <Manifest> Mike_lifeguard: It works
[23:58] <dublued2> Mike_lifeguard:  can you send me a PM :)... can't seem to figure out how to do it in Opera browser
[23:58] <Mike_lifeguard> Manifest: OK, so that is a compiz error. You can try updating from the compiz PPA, I'll get the link...
