[05:33] <ahmedhelal> escott: but seems like window decorator didnt load
[05:33] <m-droid> kill -9
[05:33] <escott> ahmedhelal, the window manager didn't start
[05:33] <ahmedhelal> escott: i tried kde-window-decorator --replace   but it seems like it wasnt install,  so am installing now compiz-kde
[05:33] <ahmedhelal> escott: seems like i missed alot, i only used sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to install kde
[05:34] <ahmedhelal> thought that should do it
[05:34] <escott> ahmedhelal, sounds like a borked kde install :)
[05:34] <Telroth> m-droid: sudo kill -9 `pidof md127_raid5` silently does nothing.
[05:34] <hasek79> can osx and ubuntu be installed side by side on a mac without making a windows partition?
[05:34] <dr_Willis> hasek79:  why would sa windows partition be needed at all?
[05:35] <ahmedhelal> escott: yeah , although i googled and found that its the same step to install kde :S
[05:35] <hasek79> i thought you had to
[05:35] <izinucs> hasek79: maybe with parallels
[05:35] <dr_Willis> a normal Uninstall dosen tneed a windows parition. so why would installng on a mac matter?
[05:35] <hasek79> i was just wanting to choose between ubuntu and osx
[05:35] <escott> hasek79, since most linux
[05:35] <hasek79> when starting up
[05:36] <dr_Willis> windows dosent figure into it as far as i know hasek79
[05:36] <escott> hasek79, since most linux (including ubuntu) use bios to boot and osx uses its variant of efi you would tell parallels and other apps you are planning on installing windows and then install ubuntu (when ubuntu is not an option)
[05:36] <badriyah> HEO
[05:36] <trihope> escott: still not seeing it. both synaptic and ubuntu software center show it's installed but not showing up when I right click the panel.
[05:37] <hasek79> but can you install linux  as a dual boot?
[05:37] <ahmedhelal> escott: wow, seems like window decorator crashes, and its not a broken installation or so
[05:37] <ahmedhelal> i get Seg Fault
[05:38] <lxd> ?
[05:38] <hasek79> like if you would to do it a a pc you get a boot loader to choose between linux or windows
[05:38] <mjw3763__> exit
[05:38] <dr_Willis> !mac
[05:38] <vahnx> how do u make urself the owner of all files in ubuntu
[05:38] <Telroth> You don't.
[05:38] <dr_Willis> vahnx why do you wan tto do that?
[05:39] <hiexpo> root is the owner
[05:39] <vahnx> i installed ubuntu ontop of slackware now i have /home/home
[05:39] <Telroth> That'll screw up a number of programs, and cause the system not to work.
[05:39] <html_inprogress> HAPPY easter
[05:39] <vahnx> i want to remove folders in /home but it wont let me
[05:39] <dr_Willis> vahnx set proper ownership and perissions on the files
[05:39] <dr_Willis> as the root user;
[05:39] <vahnx> and how do i do that
[05:39] <vahnx> k
[05:39] <Telroth> with chmod and chown
[05:39] <escott> trihope, not sure what the problem is/but its getting late here home someone can help
[05:39] <dr_Willis> !permissions
[05:39] <vahnx> like chmod 777 / ?
[05:39] <Telroth> nuuuu
[05:39] <Telroth> that'll break the system
[05:40] <dr_Willis> vahnx i would read and learn what permissions DO first...
[05:40] <vahnx> r w e
[05:40] <Telroth> Many programs require very specific permissions
[05:40] <dr_Willis> you dont want to 777 everything.. thats just.. well.. going to break things
[05:40] <Telroth> and will refuse to run if they are not set properly
[05:40] <Telroth> you should only change what you absolutely need to change
[05:40] <vahnx> ima just wipe the drive and make sure slackwares gone for good this time
[05:40] <vahnx> as if it kept all old files
[05:41] <trihope> USB indicator applet for panel not showing up after install, can anybody help?
[05:41] <vahnx> and wont let me delete em from ubuntu
[05:41] <Telroth> vahnx: where are they in ubuntu?
[05:41] <dr_Willis> vahnx with root/sudo you can...
[05:41] <vahnx> in ubuntu all the files from the old /home appeared in / in ubuntu
[05:41] <vahnx> slackwares /home got scattered to / in ubuntu
[05:41] <Telroth> so just a few user folders?
[05:42] <dr_Willis> now thsat could be an issue
[05:42] <vahnx> yeah ill just wipe it, easier than going through each file
[05:42] <vahnx> determining which is from my slackware
[05:42] <vahnx> etc.
[05:42] <Telroth> if you know the usernames
[05:42] <Telroth> and they don't collide with ubuntu folders
[05:42] <Telroth> you can probably delete them and move on.
[05:43] <badriyah> tas
[05:43] <html_inprogress> dr_Willis,  whats the command for ubuntu gui?
[05:43] <dr_Willis> html_inprogess you mean 'startx' ?
[05:43] <dr_Willis> or sudo service gdm start
[05:43] <Telroth> for example, if you absolutely know benj89 is a user from slack, then you can `sudo rm -rf /benj89`
[05:44] <ahmedhelal> hello, i tried to install kde using sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop on 10.10 ubuntu, however after restart i ended up with konsole opened with no borders (no decorators) and kde didnt load, however typing startkde magically opens kde and everything loads normally.. any idea ?
[05:44] <Telroth> But be absolutely sure that's not a folder that ubuntu needs
[05:44] <html_inprogress> whats the difference?
[05:44] <Telroth> and be very, very careful.
[05:44] <dr_Willis> one starts the gdm service.. other just starts up X.
[05:44] <vahnx> tomorrows gonna be a rough day at work -__- its already like 1am
[05:44] <html_inprogress> i just want to reinstall the gui... it was a night mare when i changed it
[05:45] <dr_Willis> what exactly did you change html_inprogress
[05:45] <html_inprogress> i got a mix of xp and ubuntu looks
[05:46] <vahnx> try the System -> Appearance tab
[05:46] <dr_Willis> html_inprogress:  and how did you do that?
[05:46] <Telroth> ahmedhelal: Make sure that kdm is correctly set as your desktop manager instead of gdm.
[05:47] <ahmedhelal> Telroth: how should i ? i choosed kdm in the installation of kubuntu-desktop packages to be default
[05:48] <Telroth> ahmedhelal: and it shows the kde-themed login dialog when the system starts up?
[05:48] <ahmedhelal> yes
[05:48] <html_inprogress> dr_Willis, http://ubuntu.online02.com/node/14  i didnt finish in time
[05:48] <POOPHAMMER> i hope this install of ubuntu goes better
[05:48] <Telroth> if you go to the login box, look for a session dropdown or an option somewhere that you can pick your window manager, and make sure it's set to KDE
[05:49] <jiltdil> if a group LG has three users A,B.C  and other user "V" from other group want to acess the members of LG group(A,B,C).how to set permission on LG group in one command so "V" can acess all the members of LG group.As i made secondary group of "V" to LG?
[05:49] <dr_Willis> i got no browser to look at thsat right now html_inprogress so cnt read it. :)
[05:49] <vahnx> no browser :O
[05:49] <dr_Willis> ircing from my cell phone
[05:49] <ahmedhelal> Telroth: just check that, it wasnt set to kde, infact nothing was choose, and i choosed kde and it logs in perfectly now, so how to make it choose kde by default  #1? also when it logged it , it popped up a konsole window..  any idea why ? #2
[05:49] <vahnx> cell phone without a browser! =p
[05:50] <hiexpo> trihope, you talking about thedisk mounter applet
[05:50] <POOPHAMMER> i love to use irssi from my cell phone
[05:50] <POOPHAMMER> its the best thing ever
[05:50] <cryptopsy> POOPHAMMER: your name is offensive
[05:50] <dr_Willis> irc client cant just load urls :)
[05:50] <POOPHAMMER> lol
[05:50] <html_inprogress> dr_Willis,  but if it was fully work able  its like having the best of both worlds , when my friends want to use the computer they think its xp
[05:50] <vahnx> haha true enough
[05:50] <cryptopsy> is POOPHAMMER an appropriate name for ubuntu?
[05:50] <vahnx> best solution would be to install xp in a virtual machine if you have a copy of XP
[05:50] <POOPHAMMER> wow really
[05:50] <html_inprogress> and i get stuff done, but i can part/ use part of the screen
[05:50] <cryptopsy> POOPHAMMER: no watch this
[05:50] <tripelb> anyone know how to do a bulletpoint with a simple solid circle (vanilla) in abiword (there's no abiword channel)
[05:50] <dr_Willis> html_inprogress:  one of those  change the theme/look scripts eh? hard to tell what  it does.
[05:50] <trihope> hiexpo: no, usb indicator, to safely remove usb devices
[05:51] <tripelb> I changed my desktop resolution. will it automatically show (looks the same, didnt flash or anything) or what do I do to make it actually happen. must I reboot?  (thanks)
[05:51] <CHRISTHAMMER> POOPHAMMER: see? its alright
[05:51] <POOPHAMMER> cool nickname
[05:51] <Telroth> ahmedhelal: It should default to be the last one that you used (KDE) or whatever you set it to (still KDE); The default behavior when X starts up is to open a terminal window.
[05:51] <POOPHAMMER> im trying an install from CD this time rather than wubi
[05:51] <rww> I keep telling myself not to unban that dolt and I keep unbanning them. I wonder why.
[05:51] <tripelb> when I start a second user things get messed up.  (1) just now having rebooted, loging keyring did not start and give the password. What's this?? I do not understand.  Coputer goes to blank screen with no recovery I can figure out. (Hardbooted was only solution)
[05:51] <html_inprogress> http://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ie=UTF-8&ion=1&nord=1#hl=en&pwst=1&nord=1&site=webhp&sa=X&ei=0Py0Te76EYKitge87czpDg&ved=0CBUQvwUoAQ&q=xpgnome&spell=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=2ec23705adf4e555&ion=1
[05:51] <vahnx> isnt there a file you can edit to change the default gdm/kdm etc.
[05:52] <hasek79> is there a way to clean up my grub screen? every time i update it adds a new i guess you could call it link for ubuntu so now i have like 10 for ubuntu and 2 for windows and i only use the most current one
[05:52] <hiexpo> trihope, are the usb'snot mounted on the desktop when you mount them
[05:52] <Telroth> vahnx: yes, somewhere. I'm not sure off of the top of my head.
[05:52] <dr_Willis> vahnx sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[05:52] <POOPHAMMER> i really hope this doesnt mess up my MBR this time
[05:52] <tripelb> hasek79, I see that too.
[05:52] <html_inprogress>  go to the first one in the list and thats it
[05:52] <trihope> actually, I haven't tried mounting any
[05:53] <html_inprogress> dont INSTALL
[05:53] <hasek79> ya all i want to 2 for ubuntu and 2 for windows
[05:53] <vahnx> hey is it possible to configure an irc server to take text say over 255 chars, convert it to a pastebin link and paste it instead. just wondering
[05:53] <trihope> hiexpo: sorry, haven't tried using any usb's, I just thought it would be nice to have an applet for quick safe removal
[05:53] <hasek79> i dont need all the other ones
[05:53] <hiexpo> ubuntu will auto mount devices and it will put an icon on the desktop to remove it just right click it and safely remove
[05:53] <tripelb> I put in a new (old) drive. I want to copy what's on it to my main drive. But I dont have permission. And if I boot to that user, then I cant even see my main drive. I can only see that user, and all the windows partitions on my drives. ARG
[05:53] <POOPHAMMER> i hope this install goes past configuring hardware this time
[05:53] <Telroth> vahnx: You'd have to download the source of one and build a module for it.
[05:54] <vahnx> ah i see.
[05:54] <Telroth> But  yes, you could if you're willing to write the code yourself.
[05:54] <POOPHAMMER> it locked up at generating /boot/initrd.im etc last time
[05:54] <trihope> yeah, guess I was more wondering why it wasn't showing up after install though
[05:54] <Starminn> Any idea whether or not GNOME Shell will ever be stable for Ubuntu 10.10?
[05:54] <vahnx> didnt they get rid of it for 11.04
[05:54] <vahnx> or is the new one an overlay on gnome
[05:55] <Starminn> vahnx: *sigh* What are you talking about?
[05:55] <vahnx> unity...
[05:55] <vahnx> is it a window manager that sits ontop of gnome?
[05:55] <Starminn> vahnx: Unity is a Shell on top of GNOME 2. something
[05:55] <tripelb> POOPHAMMER, I hope so too. are you putting it on the same physical drive?
[05:55] <rww> Starminn: GNOME 3 isn't going to happen for 10.10.
[05:55] <hiexpo> it's not the gnome shell
[05:55] <Starminn> vahnx: And "Gnome 3" you've got Gnome Shell. http://gnome3.org/
[05:55] <POOPHAMMER> well i made a partition, 30 GB
[05:56] <POOPHAMMER> its on a dif drive
[05:56] <tripelb> I had no problems POOPHAMMER when I installed ubntu
[05:56] <POOPHAMMER> well when i popped debian on there GRUB messed up my MBR's world
[05:56] <POOPHAMMER> could not load into win7 at all
[05:56] <Starminn> rww: So they're just abandoniing it in favor of 11.04? I thought that would be the case, I just wanted to see if there would be any glimmer of hope while I wait a few weeks before adopting something so potentially buggy. :)
[05:56] <vahnx> gnome 3 looks like a step in the right direction ;D
[05:56] <tripelb> poophammer that sounds even easier. vanilla. -- dont even mention ubuntu. I dont know about debian.
[05:57] <trihope> simple question - tried running "apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra" but it says I need root, what step did I miss?
[05:57] <iRabbit> rm -rf /
[05:57] <rww> Starminn: If you want the latest and greatest shiny stuff, you need to upgrade every six months, yes.
[05:57] <Starminn> trihope: sudo apt-get .....
[05:57] <rww> iRabbit: I don't recommend saying commands like that in here.
[05:57] <tripelb> irabbit, what's that?
[05:57] <trihope> Starminn:  thanks
[05:57] <POOPHAMMER> seems like ubuntu is locking up at the same part as last :/
[05:57] <tripelb> yes rww I was trying to call attention to this potential problem. It seems like this kind of consciousness is a danger to someone.
[05:57] <iRabbit> tripelb, something you don't want to type
[05:57] <Starminn> rww: Your suggested wait time between new releases? I know it's gone through alphas, betas, etc., but nonetheless, are they usually usable on a daily basis on release day?
[05:58] <Starminn> trihope: "Sudo" allows you to run as "Root" or the "superuser" (basically, the god on your machine)
[05:58] <tripelb> personally irabbit, I'd boot you with no explain for typing that.
[05:58] <tripelb> like a bot
[05:58] <dr_Willis> I often wait a week or 3 befor installing a new release. theres often bug fixs that come out real quick after release
[05:58] <vahnx> i love how people claim that sudo is bad and u should never use it
[05:58] <rww> Starminn: I usually recommend upgrading a month or so after release. Gives the servers time to cool down and the bug-fixing people time to fix any bugs that get uncovered.
[05:58] <vahnx> always run as "su"/root
[05:58] <iRabbit> tripelb, oh c'mon have a sense of humor
[05:59] <POOPHAMMER> sudo is only bad when you use bad commands with it :P
[05:59] <vahnx> but then again so is su
[05:59] <rww> iRabbit: Allow me to rephrase. The next time you utter a dangerous command like that in here, you will be removed from the channel. It is not funny.
[05:59] <tripelb> irabbit off topic
[05:59] <ActionParsnip> vahnx: sudo is great
[05:59] <tripelb> <3 rww (offtopic)
[05:59] <vahnx> yeah i like sudo but so many hardcore linux fanatics are against it... well many i met
[05:59] <ActionParsnip> vahnx: su is great, its one of Linuxes great powers as it is a true multiuser OS
[05:59]  * tripelb boots tripleb
[06:00] <Starminn> rww: That's what I was planning on. 3-4 weeks. Alright, thanks. Do you know if Gnome3 still breaks Unity? (I know this is a little OT but this is the only question I have about it.)
[06:00] <jiltdil> if a group LG has three users A,B.C  and other user "V" from other group want to acess the members of LG group(A,B,C).how to set permission on LG group in one command so "V" can acess all the members of LG group.As i made secondary group of "V" to LG?
[06:00]  * POOPHAMMER sighs
[06:00] <rww> Starminn: I haven't tried it. Someone in #ubuntu+1 might know.
[06:00] <dr_Willis> thers more to 'sudo' then just runnng suff as root :)
[06:00] <POOPHAMMER> looks like i just wont be able to install ununtu
[06:00] <POOPHAMMER> :|
[06:00] <Starminn> rww: Alright, thanks. :)
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: are you having install issues?
[06:01] <POOPHAMMER> yeah
[06:01] <vahnx> ubuntu is a pain to install
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[06:01] <vahnx> i made 3 diff bottable usbs diff times, third time worked
[06:01] <POOPHAMMER> mhmm
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> vahnx: its one of the simplest distros to install, try installing Gentoo
[06:01] <iRabbit> vahx, how so?
[06:01] <hiexpo> ubuntu is the easiest one to install
[06:01] <vahnx> i mean the install process to usb
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: what does that mean?
[06:01] <iRabbit> vahnx, how so?
[06:01] <POOPHAMMER> it means yes
[06:01] <dr_Willis> rarely have issues installing ubuntu here. Ive had more issues with differnt age pcs and differnt usb flash drives  then ubuntu being at fault
[06:01] <POOPHAMMER> i checked the hash
[06:01] <vahnx> tried unetbootin in windows, tried dd
[06:02] <vahnx> needs to be a persistant install or w/e
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: can you please use ENGLISH in replys, it speeds things up
[06:02] <dr_Willis> You can setup a grub2 usb - and boot iso files also :)
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: did you test your RAM?
[06:02] <POOPHAMMER> yep
[06:02] <vahnx> grub 2 boots hackintosh into verbose :(
[06:02] <POOPHAMMER> i never have issues with any other linux distro
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: are you using a CD to install, or USB?
[06:02] <POOPHAMMER> CD
[06:03] <hiexpo> whatversion
[06:03] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: did you burn the CD as slowly as you were allowed and did you make the CD test itself when it started to boot?
[06:03] <POOPHAMMER> 10.10 AMD 64 desktop
[06:04] <POOPHAMMER> the cd is only a 4x and that is what it burned at, and i was given no option to test it that i saw, it verified at the end of burn and the MD5 matched up
[06:04] <POOPHAMMER> it always locks up on update-inimramfs generating /boot/initrd.im.6.35-22-generic
[06:04] <clu3> which java should i use for running eclipse guys? open jdk or java sun?
[06:05] <POOPHAMMER> tried 3 burns and wubi with no prevail
[06:05] <POOPHAMMER> always stops there
[06:05] <vahnx> im not a fan of sun but they do their java good
[06:05] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: on the same screen as the ram test you can check the CD for consistency too
[06:06] <ActionParsnip> clu3: if you need the extra features in the sun java, use sun
[06:06] <hasek79> will i be able to run system update to upgrade to ubuntu 11?
[06:06] <POOPHAMMER> im thinking about just giving up on ubuntu and going with windows and staying there and sticking with debian on my server
[06:06] <POOPHAMMER> never ever had any luck wih ubuntu
[06:06] <ActionParsnip> POOPHAMMER: whatever you desire
[06:07] <iRabbit> Hey when I click on start and right click on my computer it doesn't tell me my version number.. whats the deal?
[06:07] <POOPHAMMER> is the step i am on supposed to take forever or something?
[06:07] <dr_Willis> start?
[06:07] <allorder> POOPHAMMER: why you dont use debian testing/sid on it or why you dont try another distro
[06:07] <rww> iRabbit: I think you got lost on the way to ##windows
[06:07] <Starminn> iRabbit: "My Computer"? Just System->Administration->System Monitor
[06:08] <POOPHAMMER> because i always hear wonderful things about ubuntu but never get to try it
[06:08] <POOPHAMMER> any time i do it just tars out on me
[06:08] <POOPHAMMER> *tards
[06:08] <dr_Willis> sounds like some weird hardware/issue/bug to me poophammer.
[06:08] <danielitosj> hello everbody
[06:08] <danielitosj> I had a problem installing 10.04 and 10.10
[06:09] <danielitosj> Related to partitions not aligned to cylinders
[06:09] <POOPHAMMER> i might just go back to centos for linux idk
[06:09] <Inumedia> Anyone know of any settings in X that changes how fast a touchpad will move the mouse?  Not the overall speed but horizontal vs vertical speed.
[06:09] <centHOGG> heh
[06:09] <POOPHAMMER> kinda irritating to get this going
[06:09] <danielitosj> Gparted-server dies
[06:09] <allorder> POOPHAMMER: centos for a desktop ?!
[06:09] <POOPHAMMER> yeah i used to use it on my old PC
[06:09] <POOPHAMMER> old celeron rig
[06:09] <allorder> POOPHAMMER: try archlinux maybe :P
[06:09] <dr_Willis> poophammer - you could move the HD to a differnt box. install , then move itback.
[06:10] <POOPHAMMER> lol arch
[06:10] <allorder> ?
[06:10] <POOPHAMMER> i didnt really liek arch
[06:10] <POOPHAMMER> i think im just going to go back to centos
[06:11] <allorder> ok, goodbye
[06:11] <POOPHAMMER> later
[06:11] <iRabbit> so like... I'm trying to setup a static route in /etc/hostname.vlan344  ... <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>.0 broadcast <IP_ADDRESS> vlan 1028 em3... so like !route add -net <IP_ADDRESS>/24 <IP_ADDRESS>? right?
[06:11] <centHOGG> heh
[06:11] <danielitosj> The only solution I found is resizing the problematic partition
[06:11] <POOPHAMMER> lets just hope my MBR didnt get messed up this time
[06:11] <danielitosj> Does anybody know if this issue is being solved in 11.04????
[06:11] <POOPHAMMER> lol
[06:11] <ohzie> archlinux is pretty fantastic in a lot of ways, but their community is pretty terribad imo. =(
[06:11] <ohzie> ubuntu <3
[06:12] <allorder> ohzie: ?
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> danielitosj: ask in #ubuntu+1 for natty stuff
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> ohzie: check xpud. It's groovy :)
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> boots in seconds
[06:14] <dr_Willis> tiny core linux :)
[06:14] <hiexpo> or puppy
[06:15] <centHOGG> USB Stik Distros
[06:15] <dr_Willis> i tend to avoid puppy these days :)
[06:15] <hiexpo> dr_Willis, how come
[06:15] <iRabbit> anyone ^
[06:16] <dr_Willis> spent more time figureing out puppys quirks then using it..
[06:16] <hiexpo> dr_Willis, oh  hehe
[06:16] <ohzie> I just threw 10.10 on a HP G72. I'm kind of excited. It's screen is so pretty. On the forums, people were having sound issues in 10.04, but there was an easy fix. I haven't had to do it yet. Everything's so far out-of-the-box. Even the SD-card reader. :D
[06:16] <centHOGG> like installation quirks?
[06:17] <ActionParsnip> dr_Willis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY1xAiNnPTc&feature=related fast
[06:17] <dr_Willis> Puppy just seems layer upon layer of qick little hacks, and weirdness compared to other 'normal' distros
[06:18] <dr_Willis> Ill stick to Lubuntu for my low end box's
[06:18] <centHOGG> concur
[06:18] <hiexpo> xpud that was pretty fast
[06:18] <ActionParsnip> hiexpo: lots
[06:19] <hiexpo> the only had time to say about 7 chineese words and it was booted
[06:20] <hiexpo> 7 seconds
[06:21] <joelcnz> I'm trying to update my ubuntu to use 3rd party stuff for them to work in my programs.
[06:23] <YankDownUnder> joelcnz, Um...can you elaborate? Cuz it's easy enough to install the "restricted" extras...
[06:25] <joelcnz> I've edited the sources.list. I've been trying to follow in this web page: http://wiki.allegro.cc/index.php?title=Install_Allegro5_From_SVN/Linux/Debian
[06:25] <iRabbit> is it possible to run Ubuntu with Cascade Linux on multiple VMs?
[06:25] <Inumedia> Anyone know of any settings in X that changes how fast a touchpad will move the mouse?  Not the overall speed but horizontal vs vertical speed.
[06:27] <hiexpo> Inumedia, you on ubuntu ?
[06:27] <Inumedia> Maverick.
[06:27] <iRabbit> pew pew
[06:27] <Inumedia> I'm using a synaptic touchpad.
[06:27] <hiexpo> don't you have mouse in prefs
[06:28] <hiexpo> oh
[06:28] <Inumedia> I do.  But nothing pertaining to what I want to change,.
[06:28] <shoeless> Hey! Does anyone have any experience compiling GNU Octave for Ubuntu?
[06:28] <hiexpo> pointer speed acceleration
[06:28] <Flannel> shoeless: Why are you trying to compile it?
[06:28] <Inumedia> hiexpo: That effects the overall acceleration.  Not vertical vs horizontal.
[06:29] <hiexpo> Inumedia, oh yes
[06:29] <shoeless> Flannel: I need the latest version for the predator OpenTLD Project.  Latest is 3.4.0, latest deb in the repos is 3.2.x
[06:29] <Inumedia> I need something that pertains to vertical vs horizontal.
[06:29] <iRabbit> Cascade Linux + Ubuntu..... jury still out on if you can run multiple VMs with Ubuntu?
[06:29] <hiexpo> probally in config file
[06:30] <Inumedia> xorg.conf has nothing pertaining to my touchpad settings.
[06:30] <shoeless> Flannel: My main question is that make fails because it can't find texi2dvi, even though it is installed on my system.  I'm wondering if adding the --disable-docs string to configure will fix me up.
[06:31] <jtannenbaum> ok so I'd really like to know how to get rid of this: http://i.imgur.com/g7rFp.png I've tired booting to a previous kernel but nothing fixes these bugs
[06:31] <Inumedia> It gets fixed when I change it to get interpreted as a PS2 mouse instead of a touchpad.  But then I lose my scrolling ability.
[06:31] <shoeless> Flannel: I'm compiling now, so its not critical, but it takes upwards of a couple hours to compile on my machine, so I was just curious.
[06:31] <hiexpo> there is an x y config i have seen it before on early distro i think 9.10
[06:32] <YankDownUnder> Not sure with the mouse bit, but have you tried editing the xorg.conf?
[06:33] <iRabbit> modprobe ftw
[06:33] <hiexpo> texidvi-dev
[06:33] <Inumedia> I did modprobe
[06:33] <Inumedia> But then I lost my scrolling ability.
[06:34] <Inumedia> And like I said
[06:34] <Inumedia> xorg.conf has nothing pertaining to my touchpad or any input devices.
[06:34] <shoeless> hiexpo: That provides it?
[06:34] <hiexpo> yes
[06:34] <shoeless> hiexpo: Its already present on my system from a texinfo install, make just won't recognize it.
[06:34] <Inumedia> When I used modprobe, it fixed the issue, but created another issue which was equally as bad.
[06:35] <hiexpo> shoeless, you have texidvi-dev installed
[06:35] <YankDownUnder> Have you installed the "Synaptics Touchpad Utility" and mucked around with it, yet? (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad)
[06:35] <dr_Willis> its posible you could add some lines to xorg to try to fix things. but its hard to tell. touchpad stuff in X has changed so much over the last few releases
[06:36] <shoeless> hiexpo: Er, no, but it doesn't show up in an aptitude search.
[06:36] <YankDownUnder> (Link above in last statement)
[06:36] <Inumedia> YankDownUnder: One second and I'll try
[06:36] <hiexpo> shoeless, open synaptic and look
[06:36] <iRabbit> what kernel are you using Inumedia? a synaptic touchpad is pretty common and should be in your kernel mods
[06:37] <Inumedia> uname -a = Linux Inumedia-PC 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[06:38] <shoeless> hiexpo: No package with texidvi-dev as a name, either installed or uninstalled
[06:38] <shoeless> hiexpo: through synaptic and aptitude both
[06:38] <hiexpo> run make again see what it complains shoeless
[06:38] <Inumedia> YankDownUnder: I installed it and when I try to use it in the command line it says it could not open the PS/2 Port.
[06:38] <iRabbit> Inumedia, I'd try updating your kernel, but I've been wrong before
[06:39] <shoeless> hiexpo: doing now, but it takes upwards of a couple hours, so I won't be getting results anytime soon.
[06:39] <joelcnz> I would be interested in updating my OS with non-free turned on. I'm not completely sure if that makes a lot of sence.
[06:39] <Inumedia> I downloaded this and installed it earlier today.  I believe it's the most updated.
[06:39] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Can you reproduce this problem with a stock Ubuntu kernel?
[06:39] <shoeless> hiexpo: I ended up running configure with --disable-docs, as texi2dvi is really only used by the docs (as I understand it)
[06:39] <iRabbit> Inumedia, here is what I'm running: 2.6.35-28-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 18 19:00:26 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
[06:40] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Possibly?  This is literally a fresh install of Maverick.
[06:40] <YankDownUnder> Inumedia, it's most likely not seeing a port that requires a module to load....did you read through all the other bits on the dox site? Like the bit about "Enabling True Multi-touch" and all that jazz?
[06:40] <hiexpo> you sure you spell that right texi2dvi
[06:40] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Sorry, I misread your uname output.
[06:40] <Inumedia> This laptop is two years old, to my knowledge it should not have multi-touch.
[06:41] <shoeless> hiexpo: Absolutely sure. texi2dvi.  on parallel with texi2html and texi2pdf
[06:41] <mithran> hi all, If i install sunvirtualbox, can i try to install a distribution using LVM? also what would you recommend i use virtualbox or vmware player?
[06:41] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: "Multi touch" touchpads have been common for more than two years. It's just that most Windows users don't know about it.
[06:41] <Thrawn> where could i get new .ogg alert sounds for ubuntu
[06:42] <dr_Willis> mithran - i perfer virtualbox these days
[06:42] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: From the documentation I've read, it's only recently been released from Synaptic since 2010.
[06:42] <iRabbit> Jordan_U, true story
[06:42] <Inumedia> And it's not my concern.
[06:42] <Inumedia> YankDownUnder: My bad, I wasn't running it with sudo
[06:42] <iRabbit> Inumedia, I highly recommend updating your kernel, modprobe, and see if you are still having an issue
[06:42] <hiexpo> shoeless, trying to find it
[06:43] <Inumedia> iRabbit: I'm updating everything currently.  It will take some time.
[06:43] <mithran> can i use LVM to install on virtual box then? can i create 2 vdi files and use them?
[06:43] <Thrawn> where could i get new .ogg alert sounds for ubuntu?
[06:43] <shoeless> hiexpo: try install texinfo, it should drop it into /usr/bin
[06:43] <mithran> dr_Willis ^ that was to you..
[06:43] <iRabbit> Inumedia, kk
[06:43] <dr_Willis> mithran i dont see why you would want to use 2 vdi files.
[06:43] <shoeless> hiexpo: that is, installing the texinfo package should drop texi2dvi into /usr/bin
[06:43] <YankDownUnder> Inumedia, Funny how that works like that :)
[06:43] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: I have a 4 year old laptop from Dell whose touchpad recognises the difference between 1, 2, and 3, fingers allowing me to among other things scroll by using a three finger drag. Maybe "Multi touch" means something more than that, but what I have described has been available for a long time.
[06:43] <mithran> dr_Willis: so you mean 2 partitions on 1 vdi file?
[06:44] <hiexpo> shoeless, what you trying to compile octave
[06:44] <shoeless> hiexpo: yeah, octave 3.4.0
[06:44] <mithran> i want to emulate 2 disks, to sort of try a raid config
[06:44] <TViYH> what is the swedish channel
[06:44] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Again, multi-touch currently isn't my concern.  I'm more concerned about fixing the cursor speed.
[06:44] <dr_Willis> mithran you could partiton the virutal disks however you want.  but i dont see what you gain by emulateing a raid.
[06:44] <shoeless> hiexpo: the most current in the Ubuntu repos is 3.2.x
[06:44] <rww> TViYH: #ubuntu-se
[06:45] <dr_Willis> mithran if you just want toplay with things.. that could work
[06:45] <hiexpo> shoeless, what version ubuntu you on
[06:45] <YankDownUnder> Inumedia, Just for giggles and grins, have you checked out the settings in the Mouse control utility in your Preferences menu?
[06:45] <Inumedia> Yes.
[06:45] <Inumedia> Multiple times.
[06:45] <mithran> dr_Willis: Im sorry i think my concept is all wrong...i think i just realized...m intention is to try to install on software raid...i can use the distros LVM install option to do that right?
[06:46] <shoeless> hiexpo: 10.10
[06:46] <hiexpo> shoeless, oki minute
[06:46] <Inumedia> Along with installing gpointing and checking the settings on that aswell.
[06:46] <dr_Willis> mithran - I tend to keep vbox setups very simple. guess you can try
[06:47] <mithran> dr_Willis: i have only one machine to try it on.. :)
[06:48] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: When you say "horizontal vs vertical" do you mean that it for instance goes faster left to right than up to down?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> shoeless: what version of octave do you desire?
[06:48] <Inumedia> Yes.
[06:48] <Inumedia> That is exactly what I mean.
[06:48] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: 3.4.0, the most recent stable
[06:49] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Infact, that is word-for-word the way I've been describing it since I tried Lucid for a week and has the same issue.
[06:49] <Jordan_U> mithran: Yes, two virtual hard drives in a virtual machine will work the same as two physical drives in a physical machine for all intents and purposes.
[06:50] <dr_Willis> vbox is fun to play with
[06:50] <Inumedia> argh.  Why does all of the links to Ubuntu.com with https keep timing out?
[06:50] <dr_Willis> inumedia ive heard the site has been down for some today.
[06:51] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Have you got any idea as to what's causing this issue?
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> shoeless: I can't find a ppa
[06:51] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: No.
[06:52] <Inumedia> ;_;
[06:52] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: for octave? yeah, I know.  I'm coming from source here
[06:52] <ashmew2> Hi , Hard disk temperature hitting 45 Degree Celsius , is that something i should be worried about ?
[06:52] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: which is causing me all of this fun (of the Dwarf Fortress variety)
[06:52] <Inumedia> I do believe I'm going to file this as a bug and hopefully get a fix sometime soon.
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> shoeless: even natty is using 3.2. Are there significant bug fixes in the newer versions or is it purely extra features?
[06:54] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: it deals with the usage of the tilde as a dummy variable, apparently.
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> shoeless: could log a bug, it may get included sooner
[06:54] <mithran> does fedora have an option to install using lvm?
[06:54] <mithran> the default fedora live cd?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: There does appear to be options for this type of compensation though, looking in "man synaptics".
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> mithran: fedora isn;t supported here
[06:54] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: I'm installing it as a dep for OpenTLD, an object tracking algo
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> mithran: this is ubuntu support ONLY
[06:55] <mithran> ActionParsnip: ok..sorry..
[06:55] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: Included sooner in Ubuntu? Or in Octave?
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> shoeless: ubuntu most likely
[06:55] <fisix> is it possible to shrink and install a windows partition besides a linux partition encrypted by ecryptfs?
[06:55] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Option "VertResolution" and Option "HorizResolution". These values will be used to create a ratio (read the man page for a better explanation).
[06:56] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: Sounds good, will do, until then I'm compiling with configure --disable-docs and seeing where that goes.  It takes quite a time to compile though, so no instant results.
[06:56] <dr_Willis> fisix a partition wont matter. unless you are doing somting matter.
[06:56] <Jordan_U> fisix: Yes. (as long as I parsed that sentence correctly and you don't expect the Windows partition to be encrypted with ecryptfs as well).
[06:56] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: Thanks for your help.
[06:56] <Inumedia> Hm
[06:57] <dr_Willis> fisix -  you may want to clarify what you are trying to do.
[06:57] <dr_Willis> (windows) (linux encrypted partition) (swap) (others)
[06:57] <hiexpo> shoeless, looks like there are a lot of issues with this version of octave
[06:58] <fisix> Jordan_U, dr_Willis sorry, that was a bit ambiguous haha. i mean i have an encrypted ubuntu partition right now. i want to shrink it so that i have space to install windows 7. wat do?
[06:58] <shoeless> hiexpo: haha, I'm discovering.  seems that I need this version though.  Its a dependency thing.
[06:59] <Inumedia> Jordna_U: The problem is, nothing relating to my touchpad is in xorg.conf
[06:59] <Inumedia> Where would I look to edit the configuration?
[06:59] <hiexpo> shoeless, octave is a dependency ?
[06:59] <Jordan_U> fisix: ecryptfs works at the file level, so as long as the underlying filesystem can be resized (which it can) you can resize with ecryptfs as well.
[06:59] <shoeless> hiexpo: yeah, for the OpenTLD object trackin algorithm
[06:59] <hiexpo> shoeless, oh ok
[07:00] <fisix> Jordan_U, what do u suggest i use to resize? gparted? or must i go through ecryptfs to resize
[07:00] <Jordan_U> fisix: GParted.
[07:00] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Create the section yourself.
[07:01] <fisix> Jordan_U, kk, thanks!
[07:01] <Jordan_U> fisix: You're welcome.
[07:01]  * Inumedia has no idea how :P
[07:01] <Inumedia> Well
[07:01] <Inumedia> I have a vague idea I'll look into
[07:02] <shoeless> Can anyone guide me through submitting a bug report requesting the version of a package to be upgraded?
[07:03] <Jordan_U> shoeless: Is there a specific bug / problem fixed by the newer version? Do you want this to be done in a release before 11.10 ?
[07:05] <shoeless> Jordan_U: The newer version is required as a dependency.  It also implements newer features of the software (which is octave). Not necessary, but helpful.
[07:05] <ActionParsnip> !bug
[07:05] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Upon adding the section to xorg.conf, how do I restart X?
[07:05] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Log out then back in again.
[07:05] <Inumedia> k, brb :P
[07:05] <dr_Willis> indumeda  sudo service gdm restart
[07:06] <dr_Willis> logging out may or may not restart the X server
[07:06] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: is that the same process for request of a newer version? Also, because I need the newest version, it isnt installed, and when it is, it won't be an ubuntu provided package.
[07:07] <Jordan_U> !sru | shoeless
[07:09] <shoeless> ActionParsnip: Thanks!
[07:09] <shoeless> Jordan_U: Thanks!
[07:09] <hiexpo> Inumedia, might want to look at this also http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_the_TrackPoint
[07:11] <Inumedia> brb again

[07:22] <Inumedia> Well, that was unsuccessful.
[07:22] <StupidOne> Hello, could anyone tell me how to reinstall grub from a live disc? My master hard drive got formatted and grub didn't get reinstalled.
[07:22] <Inumedia> Although it did break X and made me have to use nano to edit it to work.
[07:22] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Any other ideas? :P

[07:23] <Inumedia> Damn.
[07:23] <Alien-007> does the 32 bit vertion has all that ?

[07:27] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Are you using the Sun JVM?
[07:27] <Inumedia> Jordan_U: Fresh install of Maverick.  I have no idea.
[07:27] <Jordan_U> ejv: Remove the old kernel packages with apt/ Software Center.
[07:27] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Then no.
[07:28] <ilyekkakai> how do I fix pulseaudio so that it does not use 99% of CPU cycles and almost lock up my computer when playing audio?
[07:28] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Install Sun Java From Ubuntu Software Center.
[07:29] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: Sorry but I need to get some sleep.
[07:29] <ilyekkakai> let me rephrase... How do I stop pulseaudio using up 99% of CPU cycles and almost lock up the computer while it fails to output any sound when playing audio?
[07:29] <Inumedia> Understandable.  Have a good night :P
[07:30] <Inumedia> And thanks for trying to help me.
[07:30] <Jordan_U> Inumedia: You're welcome.

[08:23] <ruan> Rehan: hmm. it's possible to make an applet..
[08:23] <ashmew2> Rehan : sudo apt-get install computertemp
[08:23] <ashmew2> it can be added to the applets once installed
[08:23] <varun> and dimensions ,will pic of any size work
[08:24] <ruan> though that's more of a last resort
[08:25] <varun> ruan: and dimensions ,will pic of any size work
[08:25] <grechk> hello
[08:25] <ruan> varun: yes
[08:26] <Dominater> when 11.04 comes out can i use gnome 2.3?

[08:27] <ruan> varun: how large is it
[08:27] <ashmew2> Rehan :)
[08:27] <Rehan> wish it had a matching background but i guess ubuntu users can't be choosers :P
[08:27] <ashmew2> Rehan : if you know programming , you can always make it do that :P
[08:27] <Rehan> haha yeah i don't know programming ashmew2
[08:27] <XceptN> Dominater: 2.30 seems to be available as a separate package and I guess you can install and use it ..
[08:28] <XceptN> and I actually can try that on my beta install ..
[08:28] <ashmew2> Rehan :)

[08:30] <satya> hello
[08:30] <satya> how to restrict users from deleting files and directories?
[08:30] <ashmew2> satya : you have to set the proper permissions for each user.
[08:30] <Rehan> ruan: ashmew2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1513318
[08:30] <grechk> Then I created the events in the following way, but I do not understand why do not work
[08:30] <grechk> event=sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000010
[08:30] <grechk> action=/etc/apci/sonybright.sh
[08:30] <ashmew2> Rehan : hehe you found it :D
[08:31] <grechk> help me, please :)
[08:31] <Rehan> ashmew2: that post is almost a year old, weird that it hasn't been incorporated into the normal version yet
[08:31] <satya> ashmew2: they can have read and write permissions. i want to restrict from deleting
[08:31] <Asmodeus87> Quick question: Would rfkill say anything after $rfkill list all if there was nothing?
[08:32] <gartral> satya: ro delete requires write perms..
[08:32] <ruan> satya: if they can copy, they can replace a file with nothing
[08:32] <gartral> to*
[08:32] <ashmew2> satya: u have to remove the write access
[08:33] <satya> ashmew2: instead removing write permissions, cant we do anything?
[08:34] <ashmew2> satya : well see if you have a file abc.txt...i cant delete it suppose , but i have write access , so i can open abc.txt , remove all the contents inside and save.
[08:34] <Inumedia> Anyone know of any settings in X that changes how fast a touchpad will move the mouse?  Not the overall speed but horizontal vs vertical speed.
[08:34] <ruan> or make an abc.txt that is empty, and copy it to the same dir as abc.txt, replacing it with nothing
[08:34] <Asmodeus87> ashmew2: doing that by accident would be much harder though
[08:34] <moon__>  /list
[08:35] <ashmew2> Asmodeus87: removing files *by mistake* is easy ?
[08:35] <satya> ashmew2: i know it. just i want to restrict the users from deleting
[08:35] <alien-0o7> is there a command to make my bluetoth work ?
[08:35] <Asmodeus87> ashmew2: Well, no. But it's still way more likely;)
[08:36] <litropy> Hi, peeps. Help me partition correctly, please. I'm in the livecd install. I want to leave my main partition untouched and use the free space for my ubuntu partition. How do I do this, and where should I set the root file system?
[08:36] <ashmew2> Asmodeus87 : yeah well i cant deny that :D
[08:36] <ashmew2> ok satya : have a look : http://www.betamaster.us/blog/?p=271

[08:37] <Captain_Haddock> Hi, I'm trying to set up a password less login for into my ubuntu server. I am able to login fine. However I get disconnected *immediately*. Any idea why this is happening or how to debug?
[08:37] <Captain_Haddock> thanks
[08:37] <ruan> you could also make all 'write' changes require approval
[08:37] <ruan> or backup beforehand.
[08:38] <ruan> Captain_Haddock: auth.log? any place that logs connections
[08:38] <devilirium> litropy: You would do that in the advanced section of the partitioning, andd  you would give the mount point of '/' to your root. Also make sure to create a swap partition. For more details on this topic, please use the mighty Goggle =)
[08:38] <ashmew2> Captain_Haddock: how did u set it up for auto login ?
[08:39] <alien-0o7> my pc is telling me i dont have a bluetooth evice on it but there is build in
[08:39] <ruan> Captain_Haddock: also, what type of connection
[08:39] <Captain_Haddock> ashmew2: I copied the public key to the authorized_hosts file. SSH.
[08:39] <XceptN> Dominater: It is indeed possible - Install Gnome 2.30 and use "Ubuntu Classic" at GDM logon
[08:40] <Captain_Haddock> ashmew2: I can connect fine as root and stay logged in. When I log in without a password as user FOO, I log in fine and then get booted.
[08:40] <devilirium> alien-0o7: I guess your system doesn't realize about its existence then. You should install the correct driver for it.
[08:41] <Dominater> XceptN , thanks for the info :)
[08:41] <None0> satya: put file in root-owned folder, chown it to user. then user can edit but not remove
[08:43] <Laurencesm> I installed AssaultCube game and I have only 35 fps. On windows i have 200. Do I need to install drivers or something? (I am new to Linux)
[08:44] <lo0m> Laurencesm:  do you have any proprietary drivers installed? nvidia/ati?
[08:44] <Captain_Haddock> ashmew2: any ideas?
[08:45] <Laurencesm> No, I didn't install anything. I have radeon x1600.
[08:45] <Laurencesm> Yea, probably have to install
[08:45] <c4rz> did you get the restriceted extras yet?
[08:45] <ruan> D!binarydrivers
[08:45] <ruan> !binarydrivers
[08:46] <ruan> i have no idea how that D got there
[08:46] <ashmew2> Captain_Haddock : dont really have experiences with servers...maybe you could install gnome or something and investigate it with the GUI using PutTy or TeamViewer ?
[08:46] <Captain_Haddock> ashmew2: no worries, thanks
[08:47] <vivek> hi
[08:48] <ashmew2> Captain_Haddock : wish i could help more  , hang in there , you'll find someone more skilled :)
[08:48] <Captain_Haddock> ashmew2: thanks man :)
[08:48] <alien-0o7> what driver do i need to make my bluetooth work ?
[08:49] <Laurencesm> also, I have another problem. When I switch to CLI, I can't switch back. I press ctrl+alt+f7 and ... i don't know what happens. Keyboard does not work, i press caps lock and no lights
[08:49] <mysteriousdarren> sorry to chime in late but that would work
[08:49] <vivek> help guys
[08:49] <Captain_Haddock> alien-0o7: if it doesn't work out of the box, you might need a non-free/proprietary/restricted driver.
[08:50] <vivek> how can i configure network on ubuntu
[08:50] <vivek> manually
[08:50] <ruan> !network

[08:50] <vivek> lan
[08:50] <Captain_Haddock> ethernet?
[08:50] <vivek> yes
[08:50] <alien-0o7> no propietary drivers found
[08:51] <vivek> how can i configure through cmd
[08:51] <c4rz> it should connect by it self

[08:53] <ruan> natty is being released in 3 days
[08:53] <jkr801> Just have a quick question if anyone knows how to get a UI off of sshing into a 10.10 box.... usually the built in VNC starts but didnt this time
[08:53] <ankgui> join #ubuntu-in
[08:53] <vivek> search gnacktrack on google
[08:53] <vivek> its a good od
[08:53] <vivek> os
[08:54] <vivek> and wine is preinstalled in it
[08:54] <visual1ce> im using cups and splix with a samsung scx-4521f. when i do lp -o number-up=2 number-up-layout=lrtb "test.pdf" (test.pdf has 2 pages) i get weird result - the first page is printed on half of one side of the paper but the second page is printed perpendicular in the bottom half of this page
[08:54] <ruan> this is an ubuntu support channel though
[08:55] <jkr801> or if anyone knows how to start the built in vnc daemon via ssh and unlock the keychain that would work too...
[08:55] <visual1ce> this only happens with some pdfs though
[08:55] <visual1ce> very weird...
[08:55] <visual1ce> driving me nuts
[08:55] <Captain_Haddock> alien-0o7: I would recommend that you try the natty livecd (when it comes out). Your bluetooth might be detected there. Else, you will need to manually identify the chipset being used and try to locate drivers for it. Not pleasant work, I'm afraid :|
[08:56] <alien-0o7> natty live cd,the new ubuntu
[08:56] <c4rz> yea
[08:56] <Captain_Haddock> alien-0o7: you're using it already?
[08:57] <alien-0o7> Captain_Haddock:) nop 10.4 LTS 64 Bits

[08:57] <Captain_Haddock> alien-0o7: roger that
[08:57] <visual1ce> 32 bits flash works better
[08:57] <Walex2> wjd86: you need to install the Microsoft C runtime libraries
[08:58] <Captain_Haddock> ok, time to go
[08:58] <Captain_Haddock> later
[08:58] <ruan> wjd86: put the MSVCP90.dll in fallout 3's directory
[08:59] <wjd86> Walex2: sh winetricks directx9 vcrun2005  thought that included libs :/
[08:59] <wjd86> k

[09:00] <vivek> hi
[09:00] <vivek> everybody
[09:00] <wjd86> will i need to manually add that to wine's lib and make it native?
[09:00] <devilirium> wjd86: i dont think that its a good idea to run winetricks as a super user
[09:00] <Walex2> wjd86: 'vcrun2005' is a bit old, follow <ruan>'s link
[09:00] <vivek> hey telll me yar how to install tar files
[09:00] <ruan> wjd86: just put the DLL in fallout3's directory

[09:01] <wjd86> kk will do ruan
[09:01] <vivek> i hate tar balls

[09:01] <vivek> hi
[09:02] <vivek> ok
[09:02] <jkr801> anyone know about using X over ssh?
[09:02] <ruan> jkr801: ssh -X?
[09:02] <jkr801> yup
[09:02] <incidence> jkr801: Yea?
[09:02] <jkr801> and why it wouldn't forward
[09:03] <jkr801> my vnc threw up on reboot so now i only have ssh into the box how do i get extract the screen with ssh somehow?
[09:03] <wjd86> ruan: thanks man, it worked
[09:03] <jiltdil> vivek: to extract tar -xvf foo.tar
[09:03] <ruan> wjd86: np, enjoy
[09:03] <jkr801> I have x11forwarding to yes in my sshd conf

[09:07] <iceroot> jkr801: nx and vnc
[09:08] <jkr801> hmmm iceroot ?
[09:08] <iceroot> jkr801: ssh -x cant get the whole screen, you have to use nx or vnc to get the full screen from the other pc
[09:08] <iceroot> !vnc | jkr801
[09:08] <iceroot> !freenx | jkr801
[09:09] <jkr801> can that be started via ssh?
[09:09] <phonex01> guys im trying to update my ubuntu but i have strange error
[09:09] <phonex01> said something about partial update
[09:09] <phonex01> i already updated broken dependency by apt-get update
[09:11] <Walex2> phonex01: probably you need to run 'dpkg' to complete existing installations.
[09:12] <jiltdil> phonex01:give this a try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:14] <CloCkWeRX> hi guys, I (stupidly) have killed my desktop experience. I  upgraded to natty, and then tried to enable desktop-cube under compiz-fusion settings. Sadly this disabled all of the unity /largedesktop/whatever it is; and the ability to run any kind of application that isn't already open. any suggestions on how I climb out of this hole? (ie: how I might swap back to 'classic')
[09:17] <ylmf> zhe  shi  shen  dongxi
[09:18] <Flannel> claude2: Natty in #ubuntu+1 for the time being, thanks.
[09:18] <Flannel> er, claude2, ignore that.
[09:20] <Inumedia> Anyone know of any settings in X that changes how fast a touchpad will move the mouse?  Not the overall speed but horizontal vs vertical speed.

[09:21] <Fudge> hi, how can i install a package but make sure it doesnt try and install a dependcy
[09:24] <TimR> Fudge: You can't, that's why it's called a dependency
[09:24] <pylix> I thought apt was smart enough to only install dependancies when they were not already installed
[09:25] <TimR> It is
[09:25] <Jockeo> Is there an application that "creates" a hotspot? (Say I have only one computer connected to the internet, and I want to access internet from other computers using wireless)
[09:26] <iceroot> Fudge: sudo aptitude install --no-new-installs packagename    (dont know if it is working but the manpage says so)
[09:26] <Rehan> anyone ever heard of a program that if you don't login to your machine for certain period of time, it will auto-erase everything?
[09:26] <larsto> hello.
[09:26] <iceroot> Fudge: but normally there is a reason for dependencies
[09:26] <Enjolras> hi, in the package libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental, i only find the dri driver for ati. How can i get the gallium3D DRI driver for intel i915 ?
[09:27] <iceroot> Rehan: why should there be something like that?
[09:27] <larsto> i want to install ubuntu on my pc. should i install 10.10  or11.04
[09:27] <iceroot> larsto: 10.10
[09:27] <larsto> ok
[09:27] <Rehan> iceroot: i don't know, heard about something like that once, its a pretty cool idea
[09:27] <Flannel> Rehan: You could write something to do that easily enough
[09:27] <iceroot> larsto: or if you want long term support (lts) use 11.04
[09:27] <iceroot> larsto: or if you want long term support (lts) use 10.04
[09:27] <iceroot> Rehan: not really
[09:28] <nhoc_t39> thu dam

[09:28] <rubo> ą▓čüąĄą╝ ą┐čĆąĖą▓ąĄčé)
 hm!
[09:28] <iceroot> Rehan: write a script for that and do evil thins with dd :)
[09:29] <daniel__> how would i install a tgz file
[09:29] <iceroot> Rehan: easiest way, get the output from "last" and if the difference between last and now is big enough kill the system
[09:29] <nhoc_t39> how to install FLV Player for Ubuntu?
[09:30] <iceroot> daniel__: normally you search first if the package is in the repos. what program is it?
[09:30] <Rehan> iceroot: cool idea
[09:30] <Fudge> yep thank you, in this case it is because something has moved to a kernel but a package builder was there prior
[09:31] <iceroot> Rehan: but encrypt your hdd is maybe a better idea
[09:31] <daniel__> iceroot, tibia872.tgz ive done it from the terminal i jsut forgot  the line the person gave me last time i belive it was tar something
[09:32] <iceroot> daniel__: tar xfvz filename
[09:33] <nhoc_t39> how to install FLV Player for Ubuntu?
[09:33] <iceroot> nhoc_t39: flash?
[09:34] <daniel__> iceroot, thx man that worked perfect exectly what i was looking for
[09:34] <ruan> nhoc_t39: totem works
[09:34] <ruan> nhoc_t39: vlc might as well
[09:34] <ruan> nhoc_t39: (totem comes with Ubuntu so you dont have to install it)
[09:38] <mon_> hi
[09:41] <milen8204> anyone knows a good program for phone contacts set up ?
[09:43] <Samo502> Hey everybody
[09:44] <WaltherFI> hello
[09:45] <Samo502> Anyone else get an issue where certain areas of the screen simply don't seem to notice the mouse is there in any way?
[09:46] <WaltherFI> you can't click or what?
[09:46] <Samo502> well it simply doesn't interact with the mouse at all
[09:46] <Jaxxx> problem: I installed ubuntu netbook edition on my eeepc. Now it boots up to the point that you get ubuntu 10.10 and than it leaves a blank screen
[09:46] <Samo502> for instance the mouse doesn't change when hovering over something that should cause it to
[09:46] <Jaxxx> tried to change the resolution but nothing
[09:47] <Jaxxx> can't go back to terminal either
[09:47] <Samo502> it's *probably* that i'm on 11.04 beta though, but still it's good to know if it's a regular issue
[09:47] <Jaxxx> anyone seen this before??
[09:47] <Samo502> so you boot into it and get a blank screen?
[09:47] <WaltherFI> Samo502: oh. join #ubuntu+1 for natty
[09:47] <WaltherFI> Jaxxx: try booting to recovery mode or previous kernels
[09:47] <Jaxxx> yep, boot up works until you see the graphical screen that say's ubuntu 10.10
[09:48] <Samo502> WaltherFI: i noticed that in the header/topic, but i suppose it is a beta issue after all. no worries then in that case
[09:48] <acpi__> I cant boot up furter then tty1 and the error is supposed to be: /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs: No such file or directory ...  need help fixingthat
[09:48] <Samo502> because as soon as the full release comes out on the 28th i'll just update-manager -d anyway
[09:48] <Rehan> how could i decrease the sensitivity of my touchpad in ubuntu? anytime i'm typing and my palm accidentally hits the touchpad, my cursor jumps
[09:49] <Jaxxx> on startup I do get " ureadaheadprocess terminated with status 5
[09:49] <Tyrnis> plop all
[09:49] <WaltherFI> Samo502: no matter if it is a beta issue, you should talk to people/devs in there
[09:49] <Samo502> Rehan: i'm gonna guess you're on 10.10?
[09:49] <WaltherFI> Samo502: to let them know at least
[09:49] <Rehan> Samo502: yep
[09:50] <Samo502> Rehan: it'd definitely be in either administration or preferences, probably preferences someplace
[09:50] <Samo502> never used netbook edition as of yet(though i plan on getting ubuntu on this netbook here soon) so i couldn't say what exactly you'd go to
[09:50] <Rehan> Samo502: what would i be looking for? I found mouse and pointing device, neither has any option to control sensitivity of touchpad taps or turn it off
[09:51] <Samo502> hmm, what about changing the normal pointer sensitivity?
[09:51] <acpi__> I cant boot up furter then tty1 and the error is supposed to be: /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs: No such file or directory ...  need help
[09:51] <Rehan> Samo502: that only controls speed of movement
[09:52] <Samo502> wouldn't that make your mouse not jump so bad?
[09:52] <Samo502> because when your hand touches the touchpad like that, the touchpad reads it odd because of how it's being touched
[09:52] <Samo502> so it interprets it as some weird movement
[09:53] <Samo502> for instance on most touchpads, if you place a finger on say, a corner. and try moving your mouse it'll go nutty sometimes
[09:53] <Rehan> Samo502: hmm i suppose. i guess what i'm looking for is a way to turn tapping off or at least disable touchpad while typing
[09:53] <vak> hi all
[09:54] <Samo502> hello vak

[09:56] <Diverdude> When i have a file, eg. just a normal text file which is located in a folder, i can use nautilus to browse there just fine. When i then mark the file and press enter to open it in gedit a box pops up with 4 choices: {"run in terminal","Display","Cancel","Run"}. This box is oky. It is however extremely annoying that the cancel option is selected by defeault so that i need to either use the mouse to select the "Display" option or ALT-TAB 4 t
[09:56] <Diverdude> imes to select display. Is there any way to make the default selected option to be "Display" instead of "cancel"?
[09:56] <Samo502> Diverdude: that prompt can be annoying at times

[09:57] <goofed37> i installed kubuntu twice, and tried to erase one of them. now i get a black screen that reads, grup rescue. how do i get grub to boot to the kubuntu that is there.
[09:57] <iceroot> jkr801: yes, nx is the best thing out there :)
[09:57] <Diverdude> Samo502, yes, VERY annoying
[09:58] <jkr801> iceroot the session only logs in as nx do you know if there is a way to modifiy that to be any certain user?
[09:58] <Diverdude> Samo502, i can accept the prompt...but that default selection is just totally ridicolous...it makes me insane
[09:58] <goofed37> is there a grub room?
[09:59] <iceroot> jkr801: normally you can say the nx-client which user you want to be
[09:59] <iceroot> goofed37: what about try it? #grub
[09:59] <Samo502> Diverdude: you're the type of user that likes to use shortcuts a lot like me i guess? ^_^
[09:59] <brigadis> When you use nautius to browse a samba share, and try to drag and drop a song into rhytmbox it doesn't recgonize it. The solution is to copy the song to the machine first, and then transfer it to the ipod in rhytmbox. Anyone know of a workaround ?
[09:59] <goofed37> thanx.  :)
[09:59] <jkr801> iceroot ya its odd because i login at the use with the nx client but when it kicks me in its actually the user nx....
[10:01] <Inumedia> Anyone know of any settings in X that changes how fast a touchpad will move the mouse?  Not the overall speed but horizontal vs vertical speed.
[10:01] <Diverdude> Samo502, hehe yes.....a kind of user that actually use the computer properly :)
[10:02] <Samo502> hmm, ubuntu has a good variety of wireless drivers out of the box right?
[10:02] <Diverdude> Samo502, but did you ever fid a solution to the problem?
[10:02] <iceroot> Samo502: all free ones
[10:02] <Samo502> i'll google and see what i dig up
[10:03] <Samo502> in the meantime, if anyone knows if broadcom 802.11b is one of them that'd be nice to know
[10:03] <iceroot> Samo502: that is not a specific chip
[10:03] <iceroot> !broadcom | Samo502
[10:04] <Samo502> Diverdude: In nautilus, go to edit ----> prefreances -----> Behaviour. Under Execuatable Text Files, select Run, instead of Ask
[10:04] <Samo502> that's the first thing i could find
[10:04] <Samo502> but i think it may take away the prompt entirely
[10:04] <Samo502> either way it's probably worth looking at

[10:12] <Samo502> ben_: what's the issue?
[10:13] <ben_> Samo502,  mainly that I'm a n00b haha
[10:13] <Samo502> i could tell you but i'm not on my ubuntu PC at the moment
[10:13] <Samo502> and i wouldn't know without looking for myself

[10:27] <Enjolras> hi, what is the version of openGL required for running unity ?
[10:27] <Samo502> anonissimus: can you load it directly by entering the IP?
[10:27] <oCean> Bisaya: edit /etc/default/grub, add: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="gfxpayload=true" and run 'sudo update-grub'
[10:27] <anonissimus> Samo502: it is on the same ip as the domain.tld
[10:27] <pluto_> anyone tried oz unity
[10:28] <anonissimus> Samo502: ip displays main page
[10:28] <Samo502> anonissimus: yeah, but if you can load it by using the IP but not the domain, then you know the problem isn't with the server itself somehow
[10:28] <pluto_> oz unity debut 1
[10:28] <Samo502> anonissimus: then it sounds like the domain is somehow not set up properly most likely
[10:28] <epril> My system is up-to-date but the package information was said it was last updated 89 days ago. how can i solve the problem?
[10:29] <anonissimus> Samo502: you mean on dns level?
[10:29] <anonissimus> epril: sudo qptitude update
[10:30] <anonissimus> *aptitude
[10:30] <epril> i will try.. thanks

[10:47] <ruan> what do you mean?
[10:48] <ruan> epril: sudo apt-get update ?
[10:48] <Samo502> ruan: i think he's probably referring to startup
[10:48] <epril> ruan: am always using dat command
[10:48] <landingonwater> Im giving Evolution a chance. Why is It they wont fix a simple problem like deletion of google mails ? It seems strange.
[10:48] <ruan> raven_: add a script that starts it as "sleep (seconds); vlc?
[10:49] <sawdstar> bye frnZ
[10:49] <Bisaya> How do i add GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= into grub
[10:49] <epril> Samo502: It is always telling me "Failed to download repository information"
[10:49] <ruan> Bisaya: just guessing, but grub.cfg in /boot?
[10:49] <Bisaya> ruan: yeah, its jsut i dont know where in that text file i can add the entry in
[10:49] <Cube``> where does ubuntu keep mysql stuff, i.e. the root password? i would like to purge and remove everything
[10:50] <Bisaya> i dont wanna add it to the top or bottom if its meant to be in the middle etc
[10:50] <arand> Bisaya: /etc/default/grub
[10:50] <ruan> Cube``: sudo apt-get purge mysql-server
[10:50] <Samo502> arand: he's asking where in the file
[10:51] <lars_> i want to install ubuntu on my pc. should i install 10.10  or11.04
[10:51] <Bisaya> ah ty arand
[10:51] <Samo502> 10.10 for now, lars
[10:51] <SixtyFold> lars 10.10 probably is better to start
[10:51] <lars_> okl
[10:51] <Samo502> 11.04 is a bit harder to navigate
[10:51] <lars_> and in 3 days you will say 11.04 .D
[10:51] <epril> it is always " E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[10:51] <lars_> ah ok
[10:51] <arand> Bisaya: Then run update-grub to propagate these into the grub.cfg file
[10:51] <lars_> KDE ill take ?
[10:51] <Samo502> they made some huge changes
[10:51] <SixtyFold> gnome by default
[10:52] <Samo502> and applications aren't really organized as wel
[10:52] <Cube``> ruan: tried it, didnt work, still have problems when installing the package, tells me it cannot set the root password
[10:52] <aydee> hey, hi!!)))
[10:52] <Samo502> epril: if there's a third party repo causing this it would make sense
[10:52] <aydee> help
[10:52] <WaltherFI> !ask |aydee
[10:52] <Samo502> epril: like for instance their file may not  be formatted right(as the error you pasted implies)
[10:53] <epril> Samo502: what will i do
[10:53] <arand> Bisaya: If you want to add the options manually, the "wrong way", you'd add them at the end of the "linux   ...." line in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[10:54] <Samo502> epril: well unless it's causing trouble like having  you constantly update without needing to or thinking it's out of date when it isn't, then i wouldn't bother wtih anything drastic
[10:54] <Bisaya> I'd rather not since i couldnt find the line there, i jsut found it on /default folder tho
[10:54] <Bisaya> arand: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[10:54] <Bisaya> would changing that help me
[10:54] <Samo502> as long as you know when you update and the only thing effected is the text, then there's little need to change anything and it may fix itself eventually
[10:55] <Bisaya> im having problems when rebooting, it shows blank/colored screen with lines
[10:56] <Samo502> Bisaya: as in no splash screen?
[10:56] <Bisaya> i dont even know what splash screen is
[10:56] <arand> Bisaya: Those options control whether or not the splash screen, and the linux kernel boot log will be shown.
[10:56] <Bisaya> i just read somewhere that making gfxpayload=text will stop my blankscreen/color lines error
[10:56] <Samo502> Bisaya: the splash screen is the loading graphic when you boot
[10:56] <Bisaya> splash screen=login where i enter my pw screen?
[10:57] <Samo502> that is somewhat a splash screen yes, but not exactly what i'm referring to
[10:57] <Bisaya> ok so best leave that right
[10:57] <Bisaya> gRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="gfxpayload=text" <<  i think that should solve my problem
[10:57] <Samo502> it's probably referring to the graphic that shows the OS is loading
[10:58] <Bisaya> yeah i don't get to see that screen!
[10:58] <SixtyFold> does anyone else use ClamAV and know about the antivirus engine being at 96.5 and the gui version being at 4.26, for the gui version it tells me for sure there is a newer version but sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade doesnt seem to get it for me?
[10:58] <Bisaya> normally u would see ubuntu and like 4dots under it colored white/orange
[10:58] <Samo502> me either i get a missing deb error
[10:58] <Bisaya> but i dont get to see it, coz it crashes
[10:58] <Samo502> 2 of them

[10:58] <Samo502> but it boots fine other than that if i wait a minute
[10:58] <Bisaya> so the only way i get to login
[10:58] <Macer> is there a way to get ubuntu server to scan for hardware changes?
[10:59] <arand> Bisaya: That is probably not the corrrect way to add that option
[10:59] <Bisaya> is close the lid, then press on button to wake up from hibernate
[10:59] <Macer> i just put a pci-x areca raid in it and it doesnt seem to see it
[10:59] <Bisaya> arand:  i dont know wat i can do yet,im just getting tips from ppl sorry
[10:59] <freaky[t]> with what program can i mount .isos in ubuntu? oO
[10:59] <atlef> freaky[t], acetoneiso
[10:59] <Samo502> freaky[t]: and trick it into thinking it's a CD like you can with alcohol in windows?
[11:00] <freaky[t]> Samo502: like Daemon Tools for windows
[11:00] <SixtyFold> yah
[11:00] <Samo502> daemon tools and alcohol both do the same thing, so yeah
[11:00] <SixtyFold> same thing
[11:00] <SixtyFold> acetoneiso is what you want freaky[t]
[11:00] <Samo502> i always thought that they had an alcohol for linux
[11:00] <freaky[t]> ok thank you
[11:01] <MMB> Hi, anyone here have wireless N working well?
[11:01] <oCean> freaky[t]: you can use -o loop in mount command, e.g. 'sudo mount -o loop /path/to/image.iso /mnt'
[11:02] <freaky[t]> oCean: ok thanks ;D
[11:02] <freaky[t]> thank you all
[11:02] <Samo502> oCean: i was just reading you could do it via terminal
[11:03] <Bisaya> arand:  that just seems like a lot of confusing stuff
[11:03] <Bisaya> talking about grub 1.97
[11:03] <Bisaya> i just want something that will make it so i dont have to close my laptop lid, then press the on button to wake up and see the login screen lol :(
[11:03] <arand> Bisaya: ~grub2 the version number is just odd
[11:04] <oCean> Samo502: sure, the linux cmdline is extremely powerful, no need for special programs/software/tools
[11:04] <Samo502> oCean: yeah that's a big way linux contrasts to windows
[11:04] <arand> Bisaya: If you just remove "quiet splash" from the default options, you might at least get some information about the issue
[11:04] <Samo502> linux comes packaged to do all sorts of things right off the bat
[11:05] <Samo502> windows provides the basics and people add to it from there
[11:05] <Bisaya> arand:  so if i remove quiet splash, wil i still be able to boot
[11:05] <Bisaya> i just have to pick options n al that
[11:05] <SixtyFold> yah, you just have to be careful because it's a lot easier to break linux
[11:05] <SixtyFold> hahah
[11:05] <SixtyFold> imho
[11:05] <arand> Bisaya: You should be yes.
[11:05] <Bisaya> ok
[11:05] <Samo502> yeah linux isn't really an idiot's OS :P
[11:05] <Bisaya> i'll try that
[11:05] <arand> Bisaya: What you can do termpoarily...
[11:05] <Bisaya> after gfxpayload=text
[11:05] <Samo502> that's why my dad's account on ubuntu is desktop user status
[11:06] <oCean> let's get back on the (support) topic, ok? chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:06] <Bisaya> or should i try the spash thing before gfxpayload=text
[11:06] <SixtyFold> my parents can barely handle win7, theyd be screwed
[11:06] <arand> Bisaya: Is at boot time go into the grub menu, press e to edit the entry, and remove those two options there, that will only boot with that once, not add it permanently
[11:07] <tuhin> my kernel is 2.6.35 and according to http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature i don't need latest 2.6.38 for power savings to work on my Radeon x1700 based FireGL 5200 , so why my GPU is running hot when there is no gfx intensive work running?
[11:07] <Bisaya> oh ok yeah i've seen that earlier
[11:07] <Bisaya> ok let me try that first
[11:07] <Bisaya> and i'll come back, cheers
[11:07] <arand> SixtyFold: Depending on presumptions, a well setup linux desktop is harder to break and easier to use than the windows counterpart.
[11:08] <SixtyFold> arand, i think it depends on the user too of course, in general linux is easier for *me* to break, because i'm always trying new stuff xD
[11:09] <nod3w> opensuse always breaks, no matter what the user is doing

[11:14] <Samo502> Cube``: hmm, if you added it that way with the proper parameters it could work maybe

[11:17] <Samo502> dd214: i've gotten that error before, change the permissions and make sure everyone can read the file
[11:17] <Macer> "was /dev/dsk..."
[11:17] <Macer> :(
[11:17] <p1n9v1n> you can change label in disk utility
[11:17] <Macer> the zpool wont mount until i correct that problem
[11:17] <Samo502> also if it's in a directory with limited permissions it may give you trouble
[11:18] <dd214> Samo502  already tried that.. no go
[11:18] <Samo502> though why music would be stored in such a place would be beyond me
[11:19] <p1n9v1n> hi zvonkorp
[11:20] <razz1> having trouble with gparted, does not open, looks like its starting, then just disappears
[11:20] <Samo502> dd214: i'm not sure how i would have fixed it in that case, when i get an error like that i chmod the file to full permissions an that normally works
[11:21] <peeq> arand, oCean, ok i do have backup of /home. basically i want to try natty and be able to revert back tomaverick, by doing a separate install.
[11:21] <Guest64749> dont waste your time. unity isnt ready yet
[11:22] <arand> peeq: I think keeping /home separate might be a good idea still, just copy over the bits you need to the new one.
[11:22] <arand> peeq: For natty support #ubuntu+1
[11:23] <Guest64749> fuck shit piss cunt cock twat
[11:23] <iceroot> !ops | Guest64749
[11:24] <Macer> ugh
[11:24] <Macer> i have no idea how to fix this
[11:24] <Macer> the other 3 drives detected fine
[11:24] <Guest64749> !ops | Guest64749
[11:25] <Guest64749> !ops | ?
[11:25] <Flannel> Guest64749: yes?
[11:25] <Guest64749> ?
[11:25] <Flannel> Guest64749: What do you need help with?
[11:26] <dd214> Samo502  thanks for your help... there's no problem with the file, there is a problem with stream.  I can't play the m3u from my windows machine either.
[11:26] <iceroot> what is the common way if i need a newer libc for some testing? a vm?
[11:26] <patrunjel> hi guys, my wlan0 channle (my wifi interface, I guess this is how it's called) is -1...why does this happens? I have read in some man pages that it should start from 1...
[11:27] <Samo502> dd214: anytime
[11:27] <razz1> is there a ppa for latest gparted stable release?
[11:28] <Samo502> patrunjel: wlan0 is indeed your wifi interface, as for the rest i don't know as i've always been wired on my linux box
[11:28] <iceroot> razz1: what problems exist with the current version in ubuntu?
[11:29] <Macer> ah
[11:29] <Macer> think i got it
[11:29] <Macer> just had to replace it :)
[11:29] <Macer> hell yeah
[11:29] <razz1> iceroot: does not start, or when it starts just hangs scanning for drives
[11:29] <arand> razz1: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted 0.7 might be installable in maverick, alternatively look at the end of the page for PPA versions.
[11:30] <iceroot> razz1: if you start it from the shell, are there any errors?
[11:30] <razz1> cd /dev
[11:30] <razz1> then ls
[11:31] <gp5st> i'm not sure if this is a php or ubuntu problem.  I have install php5-dev and php-pear.  When I go to install a pecl extention, i'm told phpize isn't found
[11:33] <razz1> iceroot: same issue, looks like starting, then just disappears
[11:33] <iceroot> razz1: you are using "gksudo gparted"?
[11:34] <razz1> iceroot: yes
[11:34] <razz1> arand: i am using lucid, how can I install ver .7.0
[11:34] <iceroot> razz1: no output on the shell?
[11:35] <razz1> iceroot: no
[11:35] <SEV7EN> someone here?
[11:35] <iceroot> razz1: there should be at least a line with "libparted"
[11:35] <SEV7EN> :D
[11:35] <Macer> wow
[11:35] <iceroot> SEV7EN: /n
[11:35] <Macer> 18 hrs to scrub
[11:36] <razz1> iceroot: with every reboot sda and sdb keep swapping, I just installed  a second HD. this mess started just afterwards
[11:37] <webmaker> hey
[11:38] <ichigo2011> hows everyone doing tonight?
[11:39] <sveinse> Is it possible to create profiles or similar with the nvidia x server settings?
[11:40] <webmaker> fine
[11:40] <sveinse> Because I'm using ubuntu under three scenarios: On the laptop alone, at work and at home. All with different monitor setup and resolutions. And I'm getting tired of having to reconfigure the X server settings all the time
[11:40] <brontosaurusrex> ichigo2011, the earth is round
[11:41] <razz1> anyone got this error before when trying to format a partition, daemon is being inhibited - getting this when trying to format an extended partition.
[11:41] <judgex_> hi, what is the safest way to tunnel out of a corporate network without being caught so i can browse, chat on irc and read mailing-lists from work? do i simply use port 443 and nat?
[11:42] <carlito> judgex_: you should read up on ssh and socks proxy ;)
[11:42] <psalden> hey folks, I'm doing some reading, is there anything planned yet with regards to ubuntu 11.10 and maybe involving gnome3?
[11:42] <spacebug-> judgex_: you should really work at work, otherwise vpn is a good way to get private
[11:43] <Bisaya> arand:  I fixed it! changed from "quiet splash" to "nomodeset quiet splash"
[11:43] <webmaker> judgex_,  i guees a work to home pc proxies
[11:44] <judgex_> thx

[11:45] <brontosaurusrex> if i have an intranet web/ftp server and i would like to do a partial mirror on the remote machine, is there a ftp flag i could use, so that users would specifically flag files that are to be synced?
[11:45] <webmaker> spacebug-, judgex_ ,  just combine whats i said to bug

[11:46] <middle> When my PC boots it stalls on 'Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ... done.' Any ideas?
[11:49] <webmaker> middle, does it even start?
[11:51] <middle> it boots up i can see it all working, (i turned off quiet and splash from the grub menu), but it jsut gets to
[11:51] <middle> 'Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ... done.' and stops
[11:52] <webmaker> hiow arre you tlk to us then??
[11:53] <middle> Just booted into safe mode, and it hangs at the same poitn for like 20 seconds then works... and im on my laptop ^^
[11:54] <middle> ok now i do believe it is an issue with eh video drivers.
[11:54] <webmaker> how long have you been usin linux?
[11:54] <middle> I booted in safe mode logged in everythign was fine, but when i startx i black screen... and i have been intensively using for about a year maybe, probably a bit less
[11:54] <middle> why do you ask?
[11:56] <webmaker> well if your new to this then i got to start" way in the benning "
[11:57] <middle> ah ok well consider me fairly new, i have spent more of my time learning about networking with Linux
[11:58] <webmaker> im  a  bit rusty thought , im tryin to get back at it.. lol im goin to be like 9.04ubunut  a still usable antinc
[11:58] <middle> haha
[11:58] <webmaker> (old item)
[11:58] <Macer> heh
[11:58] <webmaker> thats wehen i started
[11:59] <Macer> reminds me i need to figure out how to use both onboard gbit nics
[11:59] <Macer> wonder if it will help with speed at all
[11:59] <webmaker> keybroads a bit sticky keys
[11:59] <oCean> webmaker: chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:59] <josvuk> I have a dualhead system but it happens the computer don't start up if I shutdown in hibernate mode.
[11:59] <Macer> forgot what it was even called.. i never did it before
[12:00] <josvuk> Are this known problems?
[12:00] <deneb> hello. how could i put my project under a license?
[12:00] <deneb> for ex. under gpl
[12:00] <marsfligth> I made a batch script to keep updated the OS and more. It works perfectly but it does not print at monitor the commands that the script has provided, I can see only the output of the commands given. What I am mistaking? Thank you for help me. Ps: my script is here http://pastebin.com/SKuDZjt4
[12:00] <webmaker> ok op
[12:00] <oCean> deneb: this is ubuntu technical support, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:00] <Macer> bonding?
[12:01] <mickster04> I have an interesting issue where ubuntu won't boot because of my blu-ray drive. it gets past grub but then comaplins it initrfms(?) isn't found. sometimes it can boot though...but then upon reboot my pc takes ages to get past post
[12:01] <middle> webmaker: Do you think you can help me fix my issue? If so do you want to talk in PM?
[12:01] <Macer> does bonding just put each nic in half duplex?
[12:02] <webmaker> josvuk,  thats cuz it takes a "snap shot " of whats running ,"SAves" it and " shuts down
[12:03] <erUSUL> Macer: it shouldn't afaik
[12:03] <Macer> erUSUL: so it doubles speed as a "single" interface?
[12:03] <erUSUL> marsfligth: that's the expeted behavior
[12:04] <Macer> thats awesome
[12:04] <erUSUL> Macer: it depends on the bond mode you use. there are several.
[12:04] <Macer> ah. ok. i will look into some docs
[12:05] <Macer> once this box is done with its 15hrs of resilvering i will move it and try setting up the bonding
[12:05] <mickster04> is it possible to use 2 nics at the same time in ubuntu also?
[12:05] <mickster04> !pm | Macer
[12:05] <mickster04> !pm | middle
[12:05] <mickster04> sorry Macer wrong nic
[12:05] <Macer> i should bond 2 and see how fast it goes :)
[12:05] <josvuk> webmaker: yes it shutsdown but next time I boot get black screens, so I have to switch off and boot again.
[12:06] <middle> urm well the system was working maybe an update that i did messed it up perhaps? I was trying to get Minecraft to work on it and i did an update that was all, i ended up un-installing minecraft so perhaps that uninstalled a  critical package? is eitehr that or the update messed it up
[12:06] <mickster04> josvuk: how much ram and swap have you got?
[12:06] <middle> Now when i boot it up via safe mode i get a black screen, and a regular boot hangs on a command
[12:06] <marsfligth> erUSUL: I would like to see for ie: ls -al (thecommand with options + all output)
[12:07] <erUSUL> marsfligth: set -x at the beggining of the script.
[12:07] <Macer> hm. i forget what the max throughput of pci-x is
[12:07] <marsfligth> erUSUL: at the moment i see only the output w/o commands)
[12:07] <Macer> my box is resilvering at 100MB/s but i suppose that is a bit different than raw reads at full speed
[12:07] <josvuk> Mem: 1547564k total Swap 4541096k total
[12:08] <erUSUL> marsfligth: as i said that's normal. what use have a script that outputs all the commands it executes ? that's nosense
[12:08] <Cube``> i just rented a vps. how can i set it up so that it forwards everything to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[12:08] <iceroot> Cube``: #postfix
[12:08] <josvuk> mickster04: That's what top reports me
[12:08] <Cube``> without postfix but with sendmail
[12:08] <marsfligth> erUSUL: for intance:   [-x ls -al] ?
[12:09] <iceroot> Cube``: #sendmail
[12:09] <Cube``> kk thx
[12:09] <middle> So any help?
[12:09] <iceroot> Cube``: and think about using postfix instead of sendmail
[12:09] <Cube``> iceroot: why?
[12:09] <erUSUL> marsfligth: huh? ┬½ set -x ┬╗ in its own line at the beggining of the script. that activates a "debug" mode
[12:09] <iceroot> Cube``: ever configured sendmail?
[12:10] <Cube``> iceroot: haha ok
[12:10] <webmaker> im still here, im just pullin goust right now
[12:13] <Macer> so glad ubuntu has zfs support
[12:13] <cowgoesmoo> can anyone help me install vmware tools on a vm running ubuntu 64-bit?
[12:14] <mewt> Hi, what should I use on ubuntu 10.10 as desklets ? I installed gdesklets - which failed on install, i followed instructions to fix the errors but it's only got like 4 desklets in it only - am I doing somethign wrong ?
[12:14] <middle> OK now i removed the X11/xorg.conf file in the hope that it would not use the proprietry ati drivers and would atleast boot into grpahcial mode, however i kno wjus tget no signal coming form the card, no signall at all
[12:14] <webmaker> josvuk,  the less you have open the fast it boot on hibernation
[12:14] <syrinx_> mewt: I find KDE to be better for widgets
[12:15] <atlef> cowgoesmoo, look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Tools
[12:15] <cowgoesmoo> thanks atlef
[12:17] <josvuk> webmaker: So whats the average boot time if I have 1MB mem used and 0 swap ? I think it shouldn't take minutes ...
[12:17] <alabd> Good day  all , I(humble) want to use buddy pounces  in pidgin to log when a buddy signs on and signs off , buddy pounce can run a command while a buddy signs off/on , but how to use this ability for creating logs
[12:17] <josvuk> s/1MB/1GB
[12:18] <mewt> syrinx_, mmmm maybe ill install kubuntu-desktop once more and give it a try
[12:18] <marsfligth> erUSUL: Thanks it works :-), at the beginning of each command it prints a plus symbol '+' , but this apart it does exactly what I was looking for. Thank you again erUSUL
[12:19] <ro0m0z> got a question? what can i do with a ssh server
[12:19] <syrinx_> mewt: installing KDE on an existing install my be a bit easier
[12:19] <ray_> hello
[12:19] <syrinx_> mewt: then you can just pick which one to use at the login screen
[12:19] <erUSUL> !ssh | ro0m0z
[12:19] <ro0m0z> ?
[12:19] <webmaker> i have almost always had swap, it serves many purposes
[12:20] <mewt> syrinx_, that's what im doing :)
[12:20] <josvuk> Could a dialin internetconnection be a problem if I hibernate?
[12:20] <ro0m0z> i need just a simple answer?
[12:21] <syrinx_> ro0m0z: to what question
[12:21] <ro0m0z> what can i do with a SSH Server?
[12:21] <webmaker> ray_, hi
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> ro0m0z: ssh in and do stuff :)
[12:21] <syrinx_> ro0m0z: remote login/management
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> !ssh
[12:21] <jrib> ro0m0z: secure remote shell
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> ssh is a multi-tool sort of software. it can do some nifty tricks
[12:22] <capunk_> hi.. iam a new on ubuntu. would you like to guide me on installing squid, i was crazy on it
[12:22] <ro0m0z> jrib: Dr_Willis syrinx_ so why people run a SSH server?
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> !info squid
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> capunk_:  sudo apt-get install squid
[12:23] <jrib> ro0m0z: mostly so they can control a computer remotely
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> ro0m0z:  so i can ssh to my machines and do 'things' on them as if i was sitting there locally. een if the box is 100000 miles away
[12:23] <Bekti> Alone............................................................
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> sshfs is also very handy. mounts remote ssh server as a local directory.
[12:24] <capunk_> @ Dr_Willis how about the configuration, please..
[12:24] <Dominater> i have a tv tunner on ubuntu but which program i should use to use it?
[12:24] <Bekti> sdfhkjs
[12:24] <Bekti> sdfsd
[12:24] <Bekti> sdf
[12:24] <Bekti> sd
[12:24] <Bekti> fs
[12:24] <FloodBot1> Bekti: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:24] <Bekti> df
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> capunk_:  edit its config as needed. Squid has guides and docs all over the internetz.
[12:24] <ro0m0z> Dr_Willis: jibun ...on a "ssh server" can i also host a website?
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> !info tvtime
[12:24] <middle> where is the grub menu in ubuntu 10.10
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> ro0m0z:  you insrtall a web server to host web sites.. the 2 are not exclusive. one box can do both. and often does
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | middle
[12:25] <hosaias> oi
[12:25] <middle> ah yeah forgot that
[12:25] <hosaias> alguem para falar sobre ubuntu
[12:25] <hosaias> #piaui
[12:25] <ro0m0z> Dr_Willis: and how can i run a ssh server on my computer?
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> ro0m0z:  install a ssh service.
[12:26] <g0th> Not allowed to print.
[12:26] <chammua> i can't login ubuntu system...it's only display screen with logo Ubuntu...how to fix this error...pls!
[12:26] <MaRk-I> !pt | hosaias
[12:26] <hosaias> #sexo
[12:26] <g0th> When I try to print a test page I get the following message: Unable to send command to printer driver!
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> ro0m0z:  time to read that SSH guide url given earlier.
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> !ssh | ro0m0z
[12:26] <g0th> I use latest kubuntu with cups and a network laserjet printer
[12:26] <Dominater> why my internet is so slow when i run ubuntu?
[12:26] <middle> Ah i will have to give up for now, i will return and work on it later probably, im stuck with Windows 7 from now on :'(
[12:27] <middle> ciao and thanks!
[12:27] <g0th> It says: Not allowed to print.
[12:27] <g0th> If I am not allowed to print, how do I allow myself?
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  depenmds on how the network printer is shareing the printer. Mine uses several differnt methods.
[12:27] <g0th> I should note that I can print stuff I just cannot print a testpage or clean the printer
[12:27] <g0th> I dont think it depends Dr-Willis
[12:27] <g0th> because it is a cups issue not a printer issue
[12:27] <marsfligth> erUSUL: I tried to launch the script name > myoutput.txt and again I can't see the commands, what can I do?
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  thats interesting.. so normal uysers work. but not the special features?>
[12:28] <g0th> everything works
[12:28] <g0th> but the "interface" doesnt seem to work so nice
[12:28] <larsto> hello
[12:28] <g0th> the printout is very bad quality
[12:28] <g0th> so I wanted to clean the printer using cups
[12:28] <syrinx_> hey larsto
[12:28] <g0th> but it always tells me "Not allowed to print"
[12:28] <Dominater> why my internet is so slow when i run ubuntu?
[12:28] <ro0m0z> by the way, what is the command line here if i wanna to join another channel?
[12:28] <Macer> g0th: some printers are windows specific
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  ive noticed that cup some times defaults to using the lowest res on my laser printers..
[12:28] <larsto> i wanted to ask, if i can use 11.04 already or better 10.10 (PRODUCTIVE MACHINE !!)
[12:28] <Macer> cups only allows it to print
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  i aslweays have to set them higher using the cups web interface.
[12:29] <g0th> this one is definitely not windows specific, also I use it since 2 years
[12:29] <g0th> it is not that
[12:29] <g0th> it prints the page but kind of "doubled"
[12:29] <g0th> Ie. I get the whole picture
[12:29] <syrinx_> larsto: it's pretty much stable now, release date is 3 days :3
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> No idea on the clean mode. Not even sure how a laser printer has a 'clean head' mode..
[12:29] <larsto> ok
[12:29] <g0th> and then a much weaker version of it again a bit lower
[12:29] <brontosaurusrex> ro0m0z, /join #channel
[12:29] <capunk_> @Dr_Willis did  the squid is automatically run when we turn on the computer
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  that sounds like the toner/drum issues ive seen over the years.
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> capunk_:  it should be.
[12:30] <Macer> most printers have a way to do it locally
[12:30] <g0th> how to solve it?
[12:30] <larsto> synrix_ have i to re install after release ?
[12:30] <chammua> i can't login ubuntu system...it's only display screen with logo Ubuntu...how to fix this error...pls!
[12:30] <Macer> by holding a button on the printer
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> capunk_:  sudo service SERVICENAME status   to see whats running.
[12:30] <Dominater> can someone help me please?
[12:30] <syrinx_> larsto: no
[12:30] <larsto> ok
[12:30] <g0th> Macer: hmm nice
[12:30] <g0th> ok I gotta do some reasearch then
[12:30] <g0th> I mean which buttons to press
[12:30] <larsto> syrinx_ should i download beta 2 or daily
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  whens the last time you changed the toner/cart?
[12:30] <Macer> and most do it automatically after a certain amount of time
[12:31] <larsto> thankxx
[12:31] <Macer> i havent used an inkjet printer in years tho
[12:31] <g0th> Dr_Willis: a while
[12:31] <marsfligth> erUSUL: the script start with 'set -x'
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> my laser printer only has 1 button. :)
[12:31] <Impollinator> hello
[12:31] <Dominater> why my internet is so slow when i run ubuntu?
[12:31] <g0th> I guess one has to press a certain sequence to initiate the cleaning
[12:31] <v3nd3tta``> I wanted to upgrade from Kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10, used the tutorial MaverickUpgradeKubuntu but it wants to update to "Ubuntu 10.10"
[12:31] <Impollinator> Hello guys I have a newbie question
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> g0th:  this is a laser? not an inkjet?
[12:31] <syrinx_> larsto: daily MIGHT break
[12:32] <brontosaurusrex> g0th, the instructions are usually on the back or if you lift the cover, depending on how to printer is build
[12:32] <larsto> ok
[12:32] <Impollinator> When I start ubuntu from usb. what is the name of my pc?
[12:32] <brontosaurusrex> *the
[12:32] <g0th> laserjet p2055dn
 why do you want to update ??
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> Impollinator:  if you use the live cd on a usb. its 'ubuntu' i think. check with the hostname command, or the bash prompt shows it.
[12:32] <smmsadrnezh> I have Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit desktop. I can't login with X becuz my hard disk is full. when I enter df I saw 100% of / is full
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  try logging in at the consoel. and remove some stuff.
[12:33] <v3nd3tta``> larsto: should i wait the 3 days to 11.04 release and then jump to that?
[12:33] <larsto> v3nd3tta`` why do you want to update ??
[12:33] <g0th> stupid me
[12:33] <larsto> either stay with 10.04 or upgrade to 11.04 ;)
[12:33] <g0th> there is a menu on the printer
[12:33] <g0th> should be somewhere in the menu
[12:33] <larsto> g0th: what ????
[12:33] <Dominater> why my internet is so slow when i run ubuntu?
[12:34] <Impollinator> Dr_Willis thx: listen, can I change my pc adrees on each ubuntu access?
[12:34] <Impollinator> In order to look like a total new user each time
[12:35] <marsfligth> How to print a batch including all commands given?  for instance: 'sh mybatch > myoutpotlog.txt'
[12:35] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: I login but when I enter ls all of the directories is in kb
[12:35] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: sorry becuz of bad english
[12:35] <snoeman> I am new to ubuntu though not to linux. Where are all the configuration options which are available in other distro's such as yast?
[12:35] <jrib> marsfligth: set -x  as erUSUL suggested, does that
[12:36] <Dominater> why my internet is so slow when i run ubuntu?
[12:36] <g0th> cleaning didnt help
[12:36] <syrinx_> snoeman: the System menu, and for software, Synaptic works well
[12:36] <Impollinator> I need to install an app that allaw you to increase free space when you invite friends. My friends already got that app, so I was thinking to create other accounts my own.
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> !hostname | Impollinator
[12:36] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: also it's not human readable to find out wich directory is full
[12:37] <larsto> !ubuntu | Impollinator
[12:37] <jrib> marsfligth: note "set -x" will print commands to stderr
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  you may want to do a 'sudo apt-get autoremove' or 'sudo apt-get clean'
[12:37] <Impollinator> lol
[12:37] <Impollinator> thx
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  directories dont get full.. fileysstems get full.
[12:37] <Impollinator> !thx
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  theres system directories that can take up a lot of space also /tmp/ and /var/cache/apt/archives/
[12:37] <snoeman> syrinx_ There is nothing in my system menu to configure the system such as samba
[12:38] <smmsadrnezh> I entered ls in /
[12:38] <syrinx_> snoeman: AFAIK theres nothing really like that. That's one of the things that makes SUSE cool
[12:38] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: all of the / directories is in KB
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  you dont want to be deleting stuff at random
[12:39] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: but df show / Use is 100%
[12:39] <snoeman> OK thanks
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh: start with a  'sudo apt-get autoremove' or 'sudo apt-get clean'
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> smmsadrnezh:  then remove stuff from your users dir - if its taking up all the space, /home/yourusername
[12:39] <marsfligth> jrib: It works only if I run the batch from 'inside it'. If the batch is named aaa.sh, ad I launch 'aaa.sh > mylog.txt', I can only see the command outputs, but not the commands invoked
[12:40] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: those command's don't work
[12:40] <syrinx_> snoeman: best bet for samba is to config it manually, not sure where the config file it though
[12:40] <jrib> marsfligth: you need to redirect stderr (add "2>&1" to your command)
[12:41] <smmsadrnezh> Dr_Willis: how i can see folders size in %
[12:41] <marsfligth> jrib: Thanks, I never user untill now. I'll go to study a bit. Thanks for help me

[12:52] <p1n9v1n> vlc works great because it comes with integrated codecs, but with kaffeine i'm sure i miss something

[12:53] <p1n9v1n> what is emarld?
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> !emerald

[12:53] <Dr_Willis> emerals is a window decorator. not a theme manager. :)

[13:01] <aif123> emarlead
[13:01] <josvuk>  where is some documentation how ubuntu-desktop boots up I have to find out something which I would automate? I want to do this tasks on booting automaticaly dvi=DVI-0 lvds=LVDS xrandr --output $dvi --auto --output $lvds --off
[13:02] <kumar> i need to know the type of account i am logged in into...(administrator/desktop user)
[13:02] <aif123> emarlead
[13:02] <Macer> hm
[13:02] <Macer> my zfs doesnt seem to be mounting and i have no idea why
[13:03] <Macer> is mounting a degraded pool not permitted?
[13:03] <AureiAnimus> do you guys think this laptop will play nice with ubuntu? http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&objectID=c02732667&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
[13:04] <Pici> kumar: If your user is in the 'admin' group, then it has the ability to run things with administrator rights.
[13:04] <syrinx_> AureiAnimus: I don't see why not
[13:04] <aif123> :-)
[13:04] <aif123> ;)
[13:04] <AureiAnimus> okay, thanks
[13:04] <Pici> kumar: See the output of 'groups' or 'id' on a terminal to see what groups your are in
[13:05] <erUSUL> Macer: linux support for zfs is poor ( it is via fuse; isn't it? ) use linux native filesystems ...
[13:05] <aif123> ubuntu
[13:05] <bazhang> aif123, did you have a support question?
[13:05] <syrinx_> yes, ubuntu
[13:05] <atlef> !ask | aif123
[13:06] <aif123> 11.04 how it is doing
[13:06] <bazhang> aif123, #ubuntu+1 for that
[13:06] <aif123> ok
[13:06] <kumar> @Pici i was looking for a command... because i need to implement it in a java program
[13:07] <Anubis> is it possible to encrypt a user folder after the installation of os? is yes what do you recommend for encryption ?
[13:07] <pingvin> i'm typing this from irssi
[13:08] <SixtyFold> congrats?
[13:08] <pingvin> thanks syrinx_
[13:08] <erUSUL> Anubis: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome
[13:08] <capunk_> Dr_Willis:  to start, i type sudo squid.  now how can i stop squid from running,
[13:08] <syrinx_> pingvin: no problem ;)
[13:09] <syrinx_> pingvin: it's not fancy, but its powerful
[13:09] <syrinx_> function over form
[13:09] <pingvin> terminal app is alwals powerful :)
[13:09] <syrinx_> mhmm
[13:10] <kumar> Pici, is it necessary that if a user have right to execute sudo command he will have group id 1000 i.e. gid of root
[13:11] <Pici> kumar: No. Any user can be put into the admin group, regardless of their uid.
[13:11] <terry> capunk_: sudo pkill squid
[13:13] <Anubis> erusul: thank you
[13:13] <kumar> Pici: that's why i was looking for a command which tells me weather a user can execute sudo command or no
[13:14] <Pici> kumar: If its a default ubuntu install, check if that user is in the admin group.
[13:14] <ro0m0z> what is the diffrent betwen runlevel local with other run levels in ubuntu?
[13:15] <terry> capunk_: sudo /etc/init.d/squid stop   Should stop it.  (Something wrong if it doesn't.)
[13:17] <terry> ro0m0z: Not much difference in runlevels since the advent of upstart.
[13:17] <pingvin> is there any codec pack for ubuntu and how to install it?
[13:18] <kumar> Pici: thanks i ran "groups <user_name>" and it gave me the list of groups it belongs to
[13:18] <terry> pingvin: mplayer-codecs?
[13:19] <p1n9v1n> which codecs are included, all?
[13:20] <TjWallas> quit Operation GeekNess
[13:21] <p1n9v1n> is there in synaptic codeck pack that i can check and install?
[13:21] <capunk_> terry : thanks.. ;)
[13:21] <terry> np
[13:22] <Macer> i sure hope  these zfs will  mount when  the resilvering is done
[13:22] <smmsadrnezh> how can I see the size of directory in %
[13:22] <atlef> !restricted | p1n9v1n
[13:22] <smmsadrnezh> ?
[13:22] <meetaw> hi
[13:23] <meetaw> hi?
[13:23] <Pici> hi
[13:23] <totem> p1n9v1n, multimedia codec?
[13:23] <p1n9v1n> yes
[13:23] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:23] <p1n9v1n> mpeg2, xvid, mkv ...
[13:24] <Pici> smmsadrnezh: I'm unaware of a cli tool that can do just that, I usually use a combination of df -h and du -h (and maybe -s or --max-depth=1 depending on what I'm doing) to find out disk usage.
[13:24] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, see my comment
[13:25] <myk_robinson> morning. How do I suppress the startup sound? I disabled the login sound, but I would also like to disable the sound as the desktop is being rendered. Made the mistake of leaving the volume up loud, and wearing headphones when I started my laptop this morning
[13:25] <p1n9v1n> i installed ubuntu-restricted-extras but still no video in kaffeine
[13:25] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, what about mplayer, vlc and others
[13:26] <p1n9v1n> vlc is fine
[13:26] <ray_> Is Webmaker around?
[13:26] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, are you in Kubuntu ?
[13:26] <Macer> mkv is restricted?
[13:26] <p1n9v1n> ubuntu
[13:26] <p1n9v1n> maverick
[13:26] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, and mplayer ?
[13:26] <p1n9v1n> dont use it
[13:26] <Macer> mkv is  the best  container ever
[13:27] <capunk_> terry : capunk@capunk-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/squid stop
[13:27] <capunk_> Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
[13:27] <capunk_> utility, e.g. service squid stop
[13:27] <capunk_> Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
[13:27] <capunk_> Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop squid
[13:27] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, yes, what happens when you try
[13:27] <FloodBot1> capunk_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:27] <p1n9v1n> mplayer is not installed, do kaffein need it ?
[13:28] <capunk_> floodbot1 ; allright
[13:28] <p0w4h> noobs
[13:28] <epril> how to make an ubuntu installation image with everything on it.. ? for example you have installed ubuntu on your laptop then you update everything putting necessary codecs and programs. then you want to make an installation image out of it so that you don't have to connect to the internet to download those you have downloaded already.
[13:28] <bazhang> p1n9v1n, no, its an alternate player. trying it could help to pinpoint the issue
[13:28] <meetaw> hi
[13:28] <p1n9v1n> ok i'll try
[13:28] <Jackneill> hi can you help me? i have vbox v4+ and ubuntu 10.10 in vbox, i use win7. i wanna to have different IP in ubuntu and win7, how to get that?
[13:28] <devish> question when I install a kernel-source-vanilla package should I change the sym links pointing at the kernel-source to the new kernel-source-vanilla
[13:29] <meetaw> Use ubuntu startup disk creator
[13:29] <meetaw> you can add software to it
[13:29] <Pici> p1n9v1n: Do you have the ibxine1-ffmpeg package installed?
[13:29] <Jackneill> when i use bridge mode in vbox, ubuntu cant connect to wireless network
[13:29] <bazhang> also libxine

[13:31] <patrunjel> hi guys. Can someone please tell me how do a connect to an open wifi? I mean, from the command line
[13:31] <Jackneill> hi can you help me? i have vbox v4+ and ubuntu 10.10 in vbox, i use win7. i wanna to have different IP in ubuntu and win7, how to get that?
[13:32] <Jackneill> when i use bridge mode in vbox, ubuntu cant connect to wireless network
[13:32] <p1n9v1n> i installed mplyer, still no video in kaffeine
[13:32] <totem> amin, please don't used space before :)
[13:32] <bazhang> amin, time to change your password
[13:32] <Pici> amin: Try again, and use a better password please.
[13:32] <amin> doesn't work
[13:32] <epril> meetaw,  ok thanks :)
[13:32] <Pici> amin:
[13:32] <Pici> amin:
[13:33] <smmsadrnezh> Pici: when I enter df -h home/ for example it shows me size of /
[13:33] <Pici> amin: Argh, sorry. 'amin' is already registered to someone else.
[13:33] <amin> some one else is meeeee
[13:33] <Pici> smmsadrnezh: Thats because 'df' is for device usage.  Use du -hs /home/
[13:33] <patrunjel> hi guys. Can someone please tell me how do a connect to an open wifi? I mean, from the command line
[13:33] <amin> it is messed up
[13:34] <p1n9v1n> why command line?
[13:34] <Macer> if i bond nics and one disconnects does the network connection keep going?
[13:34] <terry> smmsadrnezh: df will show the usage of the partiton that /home is on.
[13:35] <terry> patrunjel: iwconfig
[13:35] <patrunjel> terry, can you please be more explicit? :)
[13:35] <terry> patrunjel: i.e. iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys ; dhclient wlan0
[13:35] <brontosaurusrex> p1n9v1n, what kind of stream is it? DVB mpeg2 of some sort, avc or what ... ?
[13:36] <greenguy> patrunjel da n0ai ceva interfata grafica
[13:36] <patrunjel> terry, what is linksys? :)
[13:36] <p1n9v1n> dvb mpeg2 satellite broadcast
[13:36] <terry> patrunjel: (where linksys is the essid of the router)
[13:36] <patrunjel> greenguy, nu, nu-mi apare conexiunea in gui
[13:36] <vanguard> how can i tell `gzip` that it should leave the original file where it is?
[13:37] <brontosaurusrex> p1n9v1n, from kafeine faq: "Live DVB playback only works with the xine engine. Go to Menu->Settings->Engine and choose "Kaffeine-Xine". Then restart Kaffeine."
[13:37] <greenguy>  gnome?
[13:37] <terry> patrunjel: Alternately you can do:  iwconfig wlan0 scanning  (Where wlan0 is your wifi device) (It could just as easily be eth1 or eth0)
[13:37] <brontosaurusrex> p1n9v1n, http://kaffeine.kde.org/?q=faq#question21
[13:37] <terry> patrunjel: iwconfig   without arguemnts will identify your wifi device
[13:38] <cowgoesmoo> i've just created a simple share on a windows machine on my network, 'everyone' has full access...when i choose "connect to a server" in ubuntu it asks for a user name and domain name...do i need to specify these?
[13:38] <terry> vanguard: It will do that by default.
[13:38] <Phong_> hi guys, i know it is off topic, but may i just ask once?  Is it required/proper to wear dress suite to Career Fair ?
[13:38] <brontosaurusrex> cowgoesmoo, windows 7?
[13:38] <Pici> Phong_: Try #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:38] <cowgoesmoo> bronto: yeah
[13:38] <vanguard> terry: no, it replaces my test.txt with a test.txt.gz
[13:39] <vanguard> terry: but I would like to have both
[13:39] <patrunjel> terry, no, it's wlan0 :) . But what is dhclient? I mean, should I replace it with something, or just write it down?
[13:39] <brontosaurusrex> brokendatapoint, i just remember reading something about samba and win7..., and that there is some sort of problem, but i cant recall where or what was the solution ...
[13:40] <terry> patrunjel: You will need to preface those comands with sudo.  dhclient - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Client
[13:40] <cowgoesmoo> ok. i specified everyone as the username and now it's asking for the "WORKGROUP" domain password...but i don't recall ever setting one :S
[13:40] <smmsadrnezh> Pici: how to find size of file? that's work
[13:40] <Prolac> are there any limitations in ubuntu netbook remix compared to regular ubuntu?
[13:41] <Pici> vanguard: gzip -c test.txt > test.txt.gz
[13:41] <patrunjel> terry, now i get SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.. what should I do? :)
[13:41] <Pici> smmsadrnezh: ls -lh filename?
[13:42] <brontosaurusrex> i meant cowgoesmoo ..., sorry brokendatapoint
[13:42] <terry> patrunjel: dhclient will query for a dhcp server.  If it finds one, it will ask for IP information, (IP address, gateway address, and nameserver addresses).  When the dhcp server responds, the IP information is used to configure your system to access the new network.
[13:42] <Pici> vanguard: -c will send gzip's output to stdout, and you can do what you want with it from there.
[13:42] <cowgoesmoo> thanks bronto...i'll go and see what google finds
[13:42] <vanguard> Pici: thanks!
[13:42] <terry> patrunjel: If an operation is not supported, that means you just can't do it.
[13:43] <capunk_>  /msg Nickserv help
[13:43] <brontosaurusrex> cowgoesmoo, this thread says 'solved' http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue
[13:43] <terry> patrunjel: Was it scanning that was not supported?
[13:44] <patrunjel> terry, no, i can scan, i wrote in console iwconfig wlan0 essid <linksys> ; dhclient wlan0
[13:44] <patrunjel> terry,  and I get that :)
[13:44] <brontosaurusrex> cowgoesmoo, maybe this http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue#t1444
[13:44] <nacho_> hola
