[00:00] <holmser> lemme see if I still have it
[00:00] <deleuzer> DasEi, 79% of the way there
[00:00] <coz_> puff,  right and I am real familiar with preferences in totem
[00:00] <ardchoille> holmser: Ah, thanks
[00:00] <puff> coz_: But when I looked at the packages, it's Totem.
[00:00] <puff> coz_: Installing gnome-mplayer now.
[00:01] <coz_> puff,  well  just mplayer is fine
[00:01] <coz_> puff,  not sure if gnome-mplayer has a different gui than plain mplayer
[00:01] <holmser> just go into ubuntu software center and search for sqlite
[00:01] <holmser> it comes up with 3
[00:01] <simonj> Hey, could you guys help me with an installation?
[00:01] <coz_> puff,  if may be the same application but in the repos mplayer is listed as only mplayer
[00:01] <coz_> although the command to open it is gmplayer
[00:01] <holmser> I think sqlite database browser is the one I was using
[00:02] <puff> Argh, it says "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) devicve."
[00:02] <puff> coz_: Argh, it says "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) devicve."
[00:02] <coz_> puff,  ok  is mplayer opened?
[00:02] <coz_> puff,  in the main window  right click and go to preferences
[00:02] <simonj> I'm getting an error when trying to install Wolf:ET
[00:02] <simonj> /root/.setup21923: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[00:02] <simonj> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[00:02] <puff> coz_: Okay, I'll look again.
[00:02] <mMezquitale> simonj, go ahead and describe the problem you are trying to solve, all on one line, if anyone knows the answer they will surely reply
[00:02] <ardchoille> holmser:  sqlitebrowser? Thank you very much
[00:02] <puff> coz_: Okay.
[00:02] <coz_> puff,  under preferences  and the Video tab  highlight   xv X11/Xv
[00:03] <deleuzer> DasEi, Uh oh, I seem to be in endless reboot...at the end of the file system check, before loading X, computer restarted!  eek
[00:03] <sim13sime> deleting files that dont exist?
[00:03] <puff> coz_: Right, that's what it's set to.
[00:03] <coz_> puff,  then go to the Codecs & demuxer tab    Video codec family = FFmpeg's libavcodec codec family  and audio codec famioly = MPEG layer-2, layer-3
[00:03] <microlith> anyone know why openoffice is a dependency for activating support for languages beyond english?
[00:04] <deleuzer> DasEi, It restarted and put me at the command line.
[00:04] <DasEi> deleuzer: give it few more tries, fsck corrects errors at each re-read, if that turns endless, we can go on using live
[00:04] <puff> coz_: Yeahg, the video codec and audio codec were unset.
[00:04] <sim13sime> anyone know how to delete a file that doesnt exist?!
[00:04] <coz_> ok
[00:04] <tyranos> !wacom | tyranos
[00:04] <deleuzer> DasEi, can I just run fsck from command line?
[00:04] <coz_> puff,  and which type of video are you trying to play?
[00:04] <puff> flv.
[00:05] <coz_> puff,  oh
[00:05] <DasEi> deleuzer: check mount to see if sda1 is mounted
[00:05] <coz_> puff,   mm I generally just open those with firefox or get a standalone flash player
[00:05] <puff> coz_: And wmv.
[00:05] <mMezquitale> sim13sime, try using quotes in the terminal, it's probably there using a weird chracter
[00:05] <coz_> puff,  the wmv should work in totem or mplayer
[00:05] <puff> Nope, same results. Hm.
[00:06] <zutme> Is there any way to get bash completion when I use sudo. For example if I type "apti" it expands to aptitude, but if I type "sudo apti" it won't expand to aptitude.
[00:06] <coz_> puff,  you could install  Handbrake  and convert the flv  to mpv4
[00:06] <puff> coz_: Okay, maybe I should back out of gnome-mplayer and install vanilla mplayer.
[00:06] <sim13sime> mMezquitale it is there i see it on the desktop i can move it aound but i cant delete it. double quotes or single?
[00:06] <puff> coz_: And repeat the steps, etc.
[00:06] <coz_> puff,  I would install vanilla mplayer personally
[00:06] <puff> coz_: Okay, I'll try that.
[00:07] <juanito_> hello, Someone have an idea about gnome-panel freezing? It happens when I open several windows: (Firefox using 130 Mbs of mm, Gimp, Rithmbox, Pidgin, and a few dolphin pastes). When it happens i still can change windows with alt+tab or change desktops rotating the cube... but the panel.... Freeze
[00:07] <puff> coz_: Criminiy, 7pm already.
[00:08] <sim13sime> mMezquitale quotes dont work
[00:08] <evilbug> i'm trying to run a .bin on 9.10 server but i get "no such file or directory" even after i've chmod +x it. help please.
[00:08] <holmser> is there a simple way to join 2 divx files into 1?
[00:09] <llvllatrix> @holmser: Take a look at kdenlive.
[00:09] <marco_br> Olá a todos
[00:10] <puff>  coz_: Same result.
[00:10] <llvllatrix> @holmser: nixie pixel has a quick tutorial on kdenlive on youtube.
[00:10] <unop> evilbug, how are you calling it?
[00:10] <llvllatrix> @evilbug: Any more details?
[00:10] <coz_> puff,  damn... then I would run over to  #alsa...or ##linux,,, or  #mplayer  to see if they can troubleshoot this a bit better than I have
[00:10] <puff> coz_: Thanks.
[00:11] <puff> coz_: I remember this being frustrating in the past, sad to see it's still frustrating.
[00:11] <holmser> thanks, I'll check it out
[00:11] <puff> coz_: I will check in with #mplayer and #also later, gotta take care of stuff IRL now.
[00:11] <evilbug> unop, llvllatrix- i ran "chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin" and then ran "./hldsupdatetool.bin".
[00:11] <coz_> puff,  I dont know your hardware set up however... I have never really had issues with this  much in the last 5 versions of ubuntu
[00:11] <ZykoticK9> evilbug, you running 64bit?  it this a 32bit binary?
[00:12] <llvllatrix> evilbug: What is the file? A shell script?
[00:12] <evilbug> ZykoticK9- i'm running x64 server and 32bit binary.
[00:12] <ZykoticK9> evilbug, you might want to try installing ia32-libs then try the binary again
[00:12] <hdtdi> ikonia, here?
[00:13] <holmser> looks like the transcode package has a simple utility called avimerge that will do the trick quite nicely
[00:13] <ck2009> eu
[00:14] <marco_br> alguém do Brasil?
[00:14] <evilbug> ZykoticK9- thank you, that did the trick.
[00:14] <jrib> !br | marco_br
[00:14] <llvllatrix> Hi All. I'm trying to run a server keyboard-less. Unfortunately it looks like grub2 won't boot menu-less it detects a keyboard. Anyone else encounter and fix this problem without reverting back to grub?
[00:14] <evilbug> llvllatrix- thanks, found the issue.
[00:15] <ck2009> 1.977
[00:15] <DasEi> llvllatrix: not by grub, but by bios maybe
[00:15] <Fizix> Gimp doesn't load on Ubuntu Netbook Remix. I used the Ubuntu Software Manager to delete it and re-install it to no avail. Any ideas?
[00:16] <llvllatrix> DasEi: bios seems to boot fine without the keyboard; I always at least get to the grub menu even without the keyboard.
[00:16] <coz_> Fizix,  I have not yet tried UNR but for one day
[00:17] <coz_> Fizix, I dont think I can help with this ... did you open a terminal  and type   gimp  to see if there are erros reported?
[00:17] <Fizix> I'll try it now
[00:17] <ardchoille> Fizix: just thinking out loud here, have you tried alt+tab to get to it?
[00:17] <DasEi> llvllatrix: no further ideas on that, had the differnt issue (no key plugged, oh no response)
[00:18] <llvllatrix> DasEi: According to the forums, it looks like a problem with grub2 will halt if it can't determine what the state of the l-shift key is.
[00:19] <microlith> nice
[00:19] <microlith> iBus ignores firefox
[00:19] <llvllatrix> DasEi: Running keyboard-less seems like a common thing to do though, so I'm kinda surprised that this bug exists.
[00:19] <Fizix> ardchoille, I have
[00:19] <DasEi> llvllatrix: checking again on other pc, second
[00:19] <deleuzer> DasEi, I'm in! What now?
[00:19] <llvllatrix> DasEi: I'm running a very recent cut of 9.10 32 bit.
[00:20] <DasEi> llvllatrix: fresh install of today here
[00:20] <holmser> damn.... the more I use the command line the more I love it
[00:20]  * microlith goes looking for a bug
[00:21] <Fizix> coz_ When I do that, it runs through a proprietary installation process although everything else is already installed. It loads two of the three windows and reads "wire_read(): error" and I cannot load it again through the GUI
[00:22] <puff> coz_: Well it's a thinkpad, so it's an ATI mobility fire graphics set, which are notorious.
[00:22] <Trizicus> rndc dumpdb is not dumping the database (and there is no error) does anyone have any suggestions?
[00:23] <llvllatrix> holmser: I forgot to mention that getting the codecs properly installed in kdenlive is slightly irritating. You're going to have to reconfigure'
[00:23] <DasEi> llvllatrix: no, is just booting up
[00:23] <llvllatrix> holmser: the software via the menu to pick up on them. Doing straight apt-get doesn't work.
[00:23] <DasEi> deleuzer: gedit /etc/fstab
[00:24] <microlith> ok, ibus is a pile of failure
[00:24] <DasEi> deleuzer: does the line under#prevoious sda1  end up with  0  0  ?
[00:24] <coz_> puff,  oh ok I know absolutely nothing about dealing with ati cards :)
[00:24] <ardchoille> DasEi: gksudo needed?
[00:24] <deleuzer> DasEi, no
[00:25] <DasEi> ardchoille: no, just a check for fsck
[00:25] <Trizicus> rndc dumpdb is not dumping the database (and there is no error) does anyone have any suggestions?
[00:25] <DasEi> deleuzer: but ?
[00:25] <davebs> Hey, does anyone know of a way to get .wmv thumbnails to show up in nautilus?
[00:25] <ardchoille> DasEi: Ah, ok
[00:25] <holmser> I tried using avimerge, but the audio is out of sync
[00:25] <venger> how can i switch default desktop (WM etc) via console, I don't use gdm, but startx instead.  I think maybe update-alternatives can do this  ??
[00:25] <deleuzer> DasEi, I don't really see #previous anywhere
[00:26] <DasEi> !pm | kfizz
[00:26] <microlith> mmm, seems 9.10 has a regression in terms of asian language input :/
[00:26] <microlith> though that seems to be GNOME's fault
[00:26] <DasEi> deleuzer: close gedit
[00:26] <DasEi> deleuzer: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[00:26] <Trizicus> rndc dumpdb is not dumping the database (and there is no error) does anyone have any suggestions?
[00:26] <cedriczg> Hi there

[00:27] <DasEi> deleuzer: pastebinit /etc/fstab         *
[00:27] <crankharder> anyone know waht the ubuntu-created debian-sys-maint@localhost mysql user actually does?
[00:27] <ibkanat> anyone have a fix for crackling audio in vbox and 9.10?
[00:27] <crankharder> also, why do I have both a root@localhost and<EMAIL_ADDRESS> Isn't that redundant, can I do withone one of them?
[00:28] <cedriczg> crankharder, as far as I know localhost and <IP_ADDRESS> would be the same
[00:28] <llvllatrix> DasEi: I'm not entirely sure what's happening. I'll check the bios again but I suspect that's a red herring. I removed the code that checked for l-shift from /etc/grub.d/30-os-prober and that didn't work.
[00:29] <DasEi>  kfizz: that would have had to be done earlier, a seperate /home , either you clone your older karmic , or just copy, or check for sth like uniso.. though in your case... better copy ;-)
[00:29] <crankharder> cedriczg: I aware they're the same, but there must be *some* reason an install comes with both of them...
[00:29] <deleuzer> DasEi, http://pastebin.com/f3e590a61
[00:29] <deleuzer> very cool by the way
[00:29] <cedriczg> crankharder, when do you see that? what OS are you using?
[00:30] <DasEi> llvllatrix: bios often has options like halt on all erros, all ex. keyboard and so on, might affect
[00:30] <crankharder> select Host,User from user;
[00:31] <cedriczg> Is someone using ubuntu 9.10 with a 3G modem? I can't manage to have the system monitor to show my network traffic...
[00:31] <cedriczg> Can someone help me on this? I have already searched on forums, and nothing yet...
[00:31] <functionofxy> Hi. Looking for someone with fglrx experience...wondering about driver versions.

[00:32] <DasEi> deleuzer: pastebinit /var/log/syslog
[00:33] <darkfrog> I've got my Broadcom STA wireless driver installed correctly and running but where do I configure my wireless connection information?
[00:33] <deleuzer> DasEi, tune2fs -c 30 did not work, it gave me usage info instead
[00:34] <DasEi> deleuzer: also I wonder about data=writeback in fstab, gotto check
[00:34] <Tina-> anyone can tell me what module i need for eeepc LAN??
[00:35] <Miansc> Do I choose EXT4 and mount point "/" for installation?
[00:36] <llvllatrix> DasEi: Set to halt on no error. I seem to be getting into grub fine; it just halts. I'm going to take a hard look at my grub config.
[00:36] <Satzo> darkfrog, i would install wicd if i were you.. much better than default network manager
[00:36] <DasEi> deleuzer: yes, that could cause trouble : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=107856

[00:44] <arghh2d2> Miansc: ext4 for / is fine
[00:44] <Miansc> ok
[00:44] <Miansc> but i get a warning when doing it
[00:45] <Satzo> IceReaper, if u can use a monitor until you can enable ssh...
[00:45] <arghh2d2> Miansc: you should set a small partition aside for swap though
[00:45] <Guest8813> hey guys can you guys tel me where i can find the folder cannected to http://localhost:8080
[00:45] <Satzo> Guest8813, u running apache?
[00:45] <Miansc> yeah thasts what it said
[00:45] <Miansc> how do i do that
[00:45] <Guest8813> yes
[00:45] <DasEi> IceReaper: does it run linux already ?
[00:45] <Satzo> sec... phone
[00:45] <arghh2d2> Miansc: New Partition...
[00:45] <Guest8813> Satzo:yes

[00:45] <IceReaper> no. i see the ubuntu boot menu from the cd atm (connected tv). but whatever i choose, the screen is messed up after that
[00:46] <Satzo> Guest8813, i think it is /var/www

[00:46] <Satzo> Guest8813, yeah on the server i have apache on it is /var/www
[00:46] <Miansc> Yeah what do I  choose?
[00:47] <holmser> IceReaper, are you using the alternate install cd?
[00:47] <arghh2d2> Miansc: choose New Partition
[00:47]  * Satzo will brb....

[00:47] <Miansc> I chose the advanced feature.
[00:47] <Guest8813> Satzo: i have installed liferay in ubuntu
[00:47] <Lucy-23> hi there is someone who knows the star wars song theme ?
[00:47] <Halla> IceReaper, just to clarify - the live CD graphics are good but not the installation?
[00:47] <hsmak> @Miansc why don't u just follow the norma installation? it must do it for u!
[00:47] <IceReaper> not till now, but its already downloading, 5minutes to go for it. till now im using a minimal cd as always.
[00:48] <arghh2d2> Miansc: of course, you are so advanced it stands to reason :)
[00:48] <cedriczg>  Is someone using ubuntu 9.10 with a 3G modem? I can't manage to have the system monitor to show my network traffic...

[00:49] <Guest28894> someone can help me install artwiz fonts?
[00:50] <IceReaper> when i select comamnd line i see "loading initrd.gz...." than screen refreshes and everything messed up

[00:50] <holmser> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[00:50] <Miansc> im at step 4: it says install side by siude. use entire disk. largest continous space. specify partitions manually
[00:50] <holmser> check out the network install section
[00:50] <arghh2d2> Miansc: specify...
[00:50] <holmser> I've never done it, but I would guess that would be your best bet
[00:50] <Miansc> i did
[00:50] <hsmak> @Miansc ok u r in the right place
[00:50] <idiot_> someone can help me install artwiz fonts?
[00:50] <deleuzer> DasEi, crap yes, but I forgot to record the url
[00:51] <arghh2d2> Miansc: now whats it say?
[00:51] <Miansc> so how big do i make it
[00:51] <Miansc> the extra space that is
[00:51] <deleuzer> DasEi, on second reboot, everything goes smooth
[00:51] <arghh2d2> Miansc: twice the size of your ram if you want to be able to hibernate
[00:51] <DasEi> deleuzer: hm, so hard to determine what's the cause, right, then boot live again, do the e2fsck -p
[00:51] <Miansc> kk
[00:51] <DasEi> deleuzer: so ?
[00:51] <arghh2d2> Miansc: i'd just use like 256 mb's otherwise
[00:52] <Miansc> ill make it 10gb.... 8gb should be fine but.
[00:52] <holmser> IceReaper, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole
[00:52] <DasEi> deleuzer: that was a upgrade from jaunty to karmic ?
[00:52] <Miansc> ahk
[00:52] <deleuzer> DasEi, yes
[00:52] <arghh2d2> Miansc: ok, if you can afford the hdd
[00:52] <IceReaper> ah, thanks :)
[00:52] <holmser> that method should get your ssh running so you can pull up a console from another computer
[00:52] <ck2009> tty1
[00:52] <Miansc> yeah ive got a bit of space after the windows install
[00:53] <VCoolio> idiot_: extract in ~/.fonts?
[00:53] <DasEi> deleuzer: jaunty uses ext3, karmic ext4, the ident in fstab (3) is still right, this might trouble writeback
[00:53] <Miansc> so do i choose beging, ext3 journaling file system and mount point /
[00:53] <Miansc> for the 10gb partition
[00:53] <arghh2d2> Miansc: it can cost alot of storage space just to be able to hibernate and hibernation still isnt garaunteed to work
[00:53] <sim13sime> how do i delelte a file that supposedly doesnt exist
[00:53] <deleuzer> DasEi, you suggest trying to change to ext4?
[00:54] <jrib> sim13sime: start by being less vague :)
[00:54] <Miansc> ahh shait
[00:54] <sim13sime> lol ok
[00:54] <arghh2d2> Miansc: i put my swap at the end of the hard drive, it doesnt get used that much
[00:54] <ardchoille> sim13sime: you'll need to elaborate on that
[00:54] <Miansc> right
[00:54] <Guest8813> Satzo: i have apache tomcat installed
[00:55] <DasEi> deleuzer: not at this point, when reliable boot is back and I think the upgrade did that- manner : old files stay ext3 , new writes be ext 4,>< writeback trouble
[00:55] <arghh2d2> Miansc: your swap space is formatted "swap" not ext or anything like that, just swap
[00:55] <jfig1234> Hi all, having a problem here at home. I have a server running for months without problem. Now, without any change (except for upgrades to ubuntu), the server only works for a few minutes connected to a specific network switch and then stalls. Connected to another switch seems to work OK. Other equipment (freeNAS, router, etc) works fine on the switch.
[00:55] <Miansc> ohh, ok.
[00:55] <sim13sime> ok i just bought a flash drive and on it had 2 files a .exe and a .pdf file when i changes the mount point on them the files got copies so i deleted one copy and now the other copies cant be deleted bc "they dont exist"
[00:55] <Miansc> swap area?
[00:56] <arghh2d2> yeah, swap area if thats the option
[00:56] <deleuzer> DasEi, sounds like it would be, though not 100% how both could happen on the same disk
[00:56] <harushimo> is chrome available for ubuntu?
[00:56] <harushimo> i'm just curious
[00:56] <Halla> harushimo, yes as of today.
[00:56] <DasEi> deleuzer: that works, I know it (from manually doing so)
[00:56] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: That sounds like a hardware problem. Have you tried other hardware in the same port?
[00:57] <o-haavard> I've got Ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and my server ... they're on the same network, I've shared a folder on the server, yet my laptop isn't connecting to the server
[00:57] <i_is_broke> what is the command line name for pidgin? is it gaim?
[00:57] <harushimo> is there a specific version for ubuntu?
[00:57] <o-haavard> what should i do?
[00:57] <duvnell1> hi, I've livebooted a ubuntu 8.04 CD on a dell, when I plug in my usb external HDD, it's saying a device 2-1 was plugged in, but it is not creating a device.  Any ideas?  should I just get the newest version and hope for the best, or is there something that I can do to prod it alone to create a device?
[00:57] <DasEi> i_is_broke: pidgin
[00:57] <i_is_broke> i thought it had another name?
[00:57] <i_is_broke> ok will try it. thanks DasEi
[00:57] <lukes> harushimo: yes: http://www.google.com/chrome
[00:57] <DasEi> !chrome | harushimo
[00:58] <naranjo> Hey
[00:58] <harushimo> thanks everyone
[00:58] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: yes, and connecting the server on another port of the switch
[00:58] <harushimo> I shall download it
[00:58] <DasEi>  harushimo : can add repo to ubuntu, that works
[00:58] <i_is_broke> DasEi, x is broken on my test box and i was wanting to see if could get it to work with command line..will not having x make a difference?
[00:58] <deleuzer> DasEi, http://pastebin.com/f7ed4a9bf   for syslog
[00:58] <harushimo> what add to repo?
[00:58] <harushimo> that would be great
[00:58] <DasEi> i_is_broke: nope , no x no pidgin, use irssi
[00:59] <DasEi> harushimo: second
[00:59] <harushimo> if you add chrome to repo, that would be great..okay
[00:59] <harushimo> thanks
[00:59] <i_is_broke> DasEi, its called finch
[00:59] <i_is_broke> google loves me
[00:59] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: Sometimes I occasionally have problems like cat5 receding from a port even though the header isn't damaged because of the orientation of the cord. Could that be the problem?
[00:59] <arghh2d2> i_is_broke: if you got no x and need pidgin, try finch
[00:59] <Miansc> ty for the help, im installing now :D
[00:59] <jrib> sim13sime: changed the mount point how?
[00:59] <naranjo> Does anybody know if there is an official Ubuntu channel in Spanish?
[00:59] <DasEi> i_is_broke: several solutions
[00:59] <DasEi> !es | naranjo
[00:59] <david_> hello
[01:00] <arghh2d2> DasEi: irssi does insant mesaging?
[01:00] <DasEi> arghh2d2: yes
[01:00] <IceReaper> I thought google chrome has its own repo? O.o im using it for about weeks now under ubuntu
[01:00] <arghh2d2> DasEi: through a script?
[01:00] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: Or is it a complete stall? Have you checked the command line on the machine when it has stalled to see what it's doing?
[01:00] <david_> does anyone run xubuntu
[01:00] <naranjo> !es | naranjo
[01:00] <david_> can anyone help me with a problem
[01:01] <arghh2d2> david_: ask
[01:01] <deleuzer> DasEi, 2 consecutive successful boots.
[01:01] <sim13sime> jrib i was playing around with it to get the hang of using mount and umount commands and i changes it from /media to /mnt/flash a folder i created
[01:01] <b0nn> hrm, Im having a bit of trouble upgrading a jaunty box to karmic: http://pastebin.com/m5624a7d6
[01:01] <DasEi> deleuzer: nice
[01:01] <jrib> sim13sime: unmount it everywhere then mount it to one place
[01:01] <david_> i just switched from kubuntu to xubuntu an now my dvd-rw driver is not working
[01:02] <DasEi> deleuzer: pastebin won't load .. trying again
[01:02] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: tried with several cables, seems like a complete stall, no console and nothing i could find on the logs
[01:02] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: The difficulty with hardware problems is that they're notoriously difficult to reproduce :\
[01:02] <lint> can someone tell me how to change my password in ubuntu 9.10?
[01:02] <sim13sime> jrib: i did and the flash drive is clean but the 2 folders are stuck on my Desktop
[01:02] <Satzo> david_, if you put a cd(with media on it) and goto /media/cdrom is anything there?
[01:02] <b0nn> lint: passwd
[01:02] <jrib> sim13sime: are the folders empty?
[01:02] <arghh2d2> david_: are you using a different program to access the dvd-rw drive?
[01:02] <deleuzer> DasEi, I could have mis-transcribed it
[01:02] <DasEi> deleuzer: ah, syslog too big for
[01:02] <jrib> lint: system -> administration -> users and groups
[01:02] <deleuzer> DasEi, or that
[01:02] <david_> it is reading the cd but it is not ejecting it says that the driver isnt there
[01:03] <DasEi> deleuzer: have few more tries, else that will have benn it
[01:03] <sim13sime> jrib: i cant do anything with them bc its telling me they dont exist
[01:03] <DasEi> been*
[01:03] <deleuzer> DasEi, uh oh...third reboot is locking up
[01:03] <jrib> sim13sime: do they exist when you do "ls ~/Desktop"?
[01:03] <arghh2d2> david_: thats weird
[01:03] <david_> it says that it is not a volume or drive
[01:03] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: What are you running on the server? It might be a configuration error that's frying the server.
[01:04] <sim13sime> jrib: nope and neither does ls -a
[01:04] <jrib> sim13sime: click on your desktop and trying pressing f5 or ctrl-r
[01:04] <david_> thanks for trying to help though i dont know what is going on with this machine
[01:04] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: ubuntu server upgraded to the latest version
[01:05] <DasEi> deleuzer: so try to come back in, then manually open, paste  the last ~50 lines of /var/log/syslog
[01:05] <DasEi> deleuzer: older drive ?
[01:05] <sim13sime> jrib: SUCCESS! they disappeared
[01:05] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: Yup, but what are you using the server for? Running an apache server?
[01:05] <arghh2d2> david_: if you can read a dvd then its not a missing driver, not being able to eject is more likely cuz somehting is using the dvd
[01:05] <sim13sime> jrib: tahnk you
[01:05] <jrib> sim13sime: de nada
[01:05] <laeg> any idea why on all media, flash, avi etc it will play fine but the audio will fade after 20 seconds?
[01:05] <deleuzer> DasEi, have to wait for disk scan now...07 drive on a hp laptop
[01:05] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: its a home server running on old HP desktop,
[01:06] <j2bv16> hey
[01:06] <david_> do you think that you can shut down an restart if you could eject it that way
[01:06] <j2bv16> I have 12 invites to google wave
[01:06] <j2bv16> Who want?
[01:06] <jrib> !ot | j2bv16
[01:06] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: It might be something like a run away process because of a config change that consumes memory till the server dies or something.
[01:06] <sim13sime> jrib: just for future refence what did i do with the f5 command
[01:06] <jrib> sim13sime: cool
[01:06] <jrib> sim13sime: oh, it just refreshes
[01:06] <j2bv16> ok
[01:06] <arghh2d2> david_: close any programs that might be using the dvd
[01:06] <j2bv16> Thanx
[01:06] <david_> ok
[01:06] <sim13sime> jrib: ok cool thanks
[01:06] <laeg> any idea why on all media, flash, avi etc it will play fine but the audio will fade after 20 seconds? ubuntu 9.10
[01:07] <DasEi> deleuzer: not for now, smartmontools offer good ways to check drives health, on a desk eof is ~4 j , laptop (spin up) is more aggressive often
[01:07] <david_> thanks that worked i am stupid i just didnt think thak you so much
[01:07] <arghh2d2> david_: np, we all stupid sometimes
[01:08] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: What software are you using the server for? That'll give us an idea of which logs to check.
[01:08] <laeg> any idea why on all media, flash, avi etc it will play fine but the audio will fade after 20 seconds? ubuntu 9.10
[01:08] <deleuzer> DasEi, I have to believe the drive is not the problem, since this is all upgrade related behavior.
[01:08] <david_> just to be curious what ubuntu are you running
[01:08] <Satzo> laeg, dont repeat so often!  someone will help eventually
[01:08] <DasEi> deleuzer: think so, too
[01:08] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: maybe, but when I plug the server on another switch (3COM 4226t) it woks fine
[01:09] <arghh2d2> david_: are you asking me?
[01:09] <david_> yes
[01:09] <JesseW> what is a simple command-line way to make a beeping noise?
[01:09] <llvllatrix> jfig1234: One thing you could try to eliminate any hardware problems is to run a livedisk on the system to see if it reproduces the error.
[01:10] <LjL> !info beep | JesseW
[01:10] <arghh2d2> david_: i'm not running ubuntu right now, i sometimes run crunchbang which is based on ubuntu..i just like to troll this channel and help newbs now and then
[01:10] <laeg> any idea why on all media, flash, avi etc it will play fine but the audio will fade after 20 seconds? ubuntu 9.10
[01:11] <JesseW> LjL It'd be nice if it was already installed, but I'll check it out.  thanks!
[01:11] <david_> i thank you so much for the help i dont know what i was thinking
[01:11] <DasEi> harushimo: google-chrome-unstable  there is or https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[01:11] <arghh2d2> laeg: using what to watch the movies?  firefox?
[01:11] <harushimo> is it not stable?
[01:11] <harushimo> I thought it was stable version
[01:12] <DasEi> arghh2d2: you can irssi for irc just from cmd-line, though unconfigured quite dry
[01:12] <jfig1234> llvllatrix: thanks, i'll also do that
[01:12] <LjL> JesseW: you may also just use echo -e "\007" if your terminal is set to produce a beep on bell..
[01:12] <crus> hi guys, i just upgraded a couple of my systems (ubuntu server 9.10) doing an aptitude safe-upgrade, it even updated the kernel packages... just wondering why it doesnt tell me to reboot at the end
[01:12] <laeg> arghh2d2: anything - flash audio fades with firefox - movie audio fades with vlc, gnome mplayer, movie player etc etc
[01:12] <laeg> arghh2d2: it last 20 seconds, audio volume gradually decreasing
[01:12] <Satzo> crus, not all updates require immediate reboot
[01:12] <laeg> arghh2d2: happened after i upgraded to 9.10
[01:13] <arghh2d2> laeg: i'm stumped
[01:13] <crus> Satzo: its upgraded the kernel from 2.6.31-14 to 2.6.31-16, wont i need to reboot to get those changes?
[01:13] <JesseW> LjL: doesn't seem to, but I'm trying out the beep package now...
[01:13] <laeg> arghh2d2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683&page=145 third post
[01:13] <Satzo> crus, if you mentioned safe i assume it wont nag you. maybe someone else can elaborate on that
[01:13] <DasEi> deleuzer: also I wonder if the writeback in addition to ext3/4 bugged fsck, so that is another try worth
[01:13] <laeg> arghh2d2: i really don't wanna have to burn movies to disc to watch them on my window partition tonight :(
[01:14] <Satzo> laeg, have you tried another account?  could be your userspace
[01:14] <laeg> Satzo: i only have one account?
[01:14] <crus> Satzo: ahh k.. its not really an issue as such as these things only take about 10 seconds to reboot on my ESXi server, i was more curious then anything else
[01:14] <Satzo> laeg, you can make another one to cross-test
[01:14] <deleuzer> DasEi, Not sure what this would mean practically...as in how to implement it.
[01:14] <laeg> Satzo: 21gb free on my home dir?
[01:14] <occy> Anyone playing WoW on Ubuntu?  I'm getting a Runtime error: R6034 with patch 3.3
[01:15] <Satzo> laeg, so?
[01:15] <laeg> Satzo: how do i do that, and will i be able to access the files in /home/laeg/videos from another account?
[01:15] <DasEi> deleuzer: the e2fsck -p thingy
[01:15] <laeg> Satzo: sorry, i'm unfamiliar with userspace
[01:15] <eds> does anyone know how to restore a uuid or how i can assign a new one to a partition?
[01:15] <Satzo> laeg, goto user accounts, and make another
[01:15] <laeg> Satzo: will i be able to access laeg's files?
[01:15] <Satzo> userspace simply means an account.  windows/mac/linux all uses this concept
[01:15] <deleuzer> DasEi, we already did that, right?
[01:16] <Satzo> laeg, make sure you make admin rights with adding the test account and you should be ok
[01:16] <Satzo> laeg, you can be logged into two userspaces at once too :)
[01:16] <laeg> Satzo: system >> admin >> users and groups doesn't give me the option to add user? it's greyed out
[01:16] <Satzo> unlock it
[01:16] <laeg> Satzo: wants keyring, standby
[01:16] <Satzo> ;
[01:17] <Satzo> laeg, im heading out to lunch soon, but userspaces is something worth understanding anyway :)
[01:17] <DasEi> deleuzer: also I wonder if the writeback in addition to ext3/4 bugged fsck, so that is another try worth
[01:17] <laeg> Satzo: account created, gonna go test - brb
[01:17] <JesseW> LjL: beep gives me no sound -- probably something screwy with my sound setup... dammit.
[01:17] <laeg> and ty Satzo
[01:17] <deleuzer> DasEi, Ah because writeback was changed, so fsck might work differently?
[01:18] <DasEi> deleuzer: y
[01:18] <Reliant> If my bootable linux harddisk was moved from being in the IDE port of an external PCI card and plugged into the primary IDE of the motherboard, would that cause failures to boot?
[01:18] <Steil> potentially
[01:18] <Steil> probably not though
[01:19] <Reliant> I'm trying to troubleshoot this one. I moved everything into a new box, and some of the wiring of the drives has changed. The motherboard takes forever to hand off to grub, and grub takes ages to load now
[01:21] <virtuald> But does it work?
[01:21] <laeg> santoz? :(
[01:21] <Satzo> laeg, still an issue?
[01:21] <laeg> Satzo: sorry friend, spelt your name wrong :)
[01:21] <laeg> Satzo: yes :(
[01:21] <Satzo> np
[01:21] <deleuzer_> DasEi, http://whiteboard.debian.net/dasei.wb my syslog
[01:21] <laeg> 21 seconds
[01:21] <laeg> sound is gone
[01:21] <laeg> Satzo: gradual fade
[01:22] <Satzo> Satzo, what audio device do you have?  on board or a pci card?
[01:22] <laeg> Satzo: was that for me?
[01:22] <Satzo> sorry yes. :)
[01:22] <laeg> :)
[01:22] <pspfreak> how can I use sound in revovery mode?
[01:22] <laeg> Satzo: i think it's on board, can i check? btw this worked fine in 9.04
[01:23] <Reliant> I think before, I had GRUB loaded on my SATA drive (a windows OS), with an option to choose Linux (IDE drive in PCI slot). Now that I moved the IDE drive into primary master, I can't get anything to boot right. SATA's GRUB gives "Invalid partition" when trying to choose either Windows or Ubuntu
[01:23] <Reliant> so tl;dr, how can I use the GRUB command line to choose the boot device?
[01:23] <pspfreak> can I use sound in recovery mode?
[01:23] <Satzo> laeg, i only ask because i went through this with my home PC.  the external audio card had to go..causing too many problems.  i re-enabled the on-board audio and havent looked back
[01:23] <jrib> pspfreak: why would you want to?
[01:23] <Satzo> Reliant, you a redditor?
[01:23] <virtuald> !grub
[01:24] <pspfreak> because I can't boot into non-revoery mode because GDM wont load.
[01:24] <Reliant> Satzo, yeah :D
[01:24] <Reliant> thanks virtuald
[01:24] <pspfreak> I have tryed also reload, and it still doesn't detect.
[01:24]  * Satzo knows a redditor right away....
[01:24] <virtuald> :]
[01:25] <pspfreak> I know it sees it because sudo aplay it det4ects it
[01:25] <laeg> Satzo: ok man. anything else i can try?
[01:25] <pspfreak> I do have onboard audio
[01:25] <Satzo> laeg, is it onboard or external audio?
[01:25] <DasEi> deleuzer: are you booting from usb ? any new devices on ? http://pastebin.com/m1af6f85b
[01:25] <laeg> Satzo: it's so teasing, i'd understand if there was no sound because it would mean something was wrong but it playing for 20 seconds is almost like an insult
[01:26] <pspfreak> jrib, is it possible?
[01:26] <laeg> Satzo: i stick a cable from the audio port at the front of my tower into a hifi?
[01:26] <jrib> pspfreak: probably, but I don't see the point
[01:26] <laeg> Satzo: there's no problem with the hifi, radio works fine etc and worked fine with 9.04?
[01:26] <Satzo> ok its probably on-board laeg
[01:26] <laeg> Satzo: is there a way to test?
[01:26] <deleuzer> DasEi, no nothing new or unusual...thanks for all your help!
[01:27] <pspfreak> jrib, I can't boot into normal mode because of corrupt login manager. So I want sound in recovery
[01:27] <JesseW> LjL-Temp: I got it working by installing vorbis-tools... why it worked, I'm not sure.
[01:27] <DasEi> deleuzer: hope it helped , c a
[01:27] <jrib> pspfreak: erm, "corrupt login manager"?  What's the problem?  Your question should be how to fix *that*
[01:27] <deleuzer> caoi
[01:27] <laeg> !sound
[01:27] <Satzo> laeg, i was just going to suggest that
[01:28] <laeg> Satzo: i've pretty much been through this, but at that time it just happened with flash
[01:28] <Satzo> flash only?
[01:28] <pspfreak> After it loads the os, it hangs at the unbuntu bar thing
[01:29] <pspfreak> Well, it is not corrupt, because I have tryed uninstalling and reinstalling GDM
[01:29] <Satzo> laeg, also check in terminal, alsamixer   see if everything is ok in there
[01:29] <Satzo> alsamixer will tell you what type of audio device too
[01:29] <pspfreak> btw, that was to jrib
[01:30] <icefyre> hello everyone
[01:30] <jrib> pspfreak: does it even get to load gdm?
[01:30] <laeg> Satzo: how?
[01:30] <laeg> Satzo: sorry, i don't know the command?
[01:30] <icefyre> just installed Karmic but it doesn't detect my monitor's native resolution
[01:31] <icefyre> can go to a max of 800x600
[01:31] <pspfreak> well, you know after the fading thing? Well, it gets to the next screen, then keeps restarting GDM.
[01:31] <icefyre> I also have no xorg.conf file on my system
[01:31] <Satzo> laeg,  open terminal, type alsamixer
[01:31] <icefyre> can anyone help me fix the resolution problem?
[01:31] <pspfreak> I can still go through the netroot recovery, running login, then typing startx.
[01:31] <icefyre> wow, this chat window looks huge on 800x600

[01:32] <pspfreak> I just want my sound back
[01:32] <icefyre> this monitor has a native resolution of 1280x1024

[01:34] <pspfreak> do you want the xorg.0.log.old?
[01:34] <icefyre> what does that mean?
[01:34] <jrib> !who | pspfreak
[01:34] <icefyre> from what I've read on the forums xorg.conf is depricated

[01:37] <pspfreak> @jrib I recently have been using netroot recovery, typing login, then startx
[01:37] <icefyre> I added a new mode with xrandr
[01:37] <pspfreak> !tab jrib got it?
[01:38] <jrib> pspfreak: don't do that...  Are there any differences in the logs.  I don't know what driver intel uses but your .log is complaining you don't have i810
[01:38] <icefyre> but when I type "xrandr --output default --mode 1024x768"
[01:38] <icefyre> it says it can't find it
[01:38] <icefyre> it shows up when I type "xrandr -q"
[01:38] <icefyre> any ideas?
[01:39] <blackgr> icefyre: try xrandr --fb 1024x768
[01:39] <pspfreak> jrib: I will pastebin the file. It is all confusing
[01:40] <icefyre> result is: xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 800x600 (desired size 1024x768)
[01:40] <pspfreak> jrib: http://pastebin.com/d34108cb3
[01:41] <jrib> pspfreak: yeah, see what's going on with i810
[01:42] <pspfreak> jrib: what do I need to do?
[01:42] <deathkitten> hi slightly scarily obsessed but clever tech ppl ;D
[01:42] <jrib> pspfreak: I don't use intel, I don't know offhand.  Figure out what package is responsible for it for starters
[01:43] <pspfreak> jrib: and how to find that?
[01:43] <icefyre> blackgr: any clue how I can tell xrandr that I have a larger screen than it believes?
[01:43] <deathkitten> can anyone help me with this deciding what earphones to pick for an mp3 player (not isolating ones)? http://avforums.com/forums/headphones-headphone-amps/1113761-headphone-gym.html#post11009857
[01:43] <pspfreak> deathkitten: this is ubuntu, not soundplace
[01:44] <deathkitten> [01:44] * Now talking in #soundplace  [01:44] * calvino.freenode.net sets mode: +ns
[01:44] <deathkitten> is there anywhere that would be better to ask then? :/
[01:44] <deathkitten> I did try google for ircs but couldn't find any relevant ones
[01:45] <goose> deathkitten: try #defocus
[01:45] <jrib> pspfreak: apt-cache search, or packages.ubuntu.com, or synaptic, or google
[01:45] <STFU|Scott> anyone running COD:MW2 on their distro?
[01:45] <deathkitten> looks ok thanks goose
[01:45] <pspfreak> !who |  deathkitten
[01:45] <sharperguy> Anyone have any idea why since the update to karmic sometimes when I close my laptop lid and then open it the screen wont come back until I forcibly reboot?
[01:46] <goose> sharperguy: your power settings aren't set to sleep on lid close are they?
[01:46] <wodjop> ?ati
[01:46] <pspfreak> jrib: it says this package X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
[01:46] <wodjop> ?  ati
[01:46] <wodjop> ? ati
[01:46] <pspfreak> jrib: should I try reinstalling it?
[01:46] <wodjop> lol...
[01:46] <deathkitten> lol
[01:46] <wodjop> !ati
[01:46] <wodjop> ! ati
[01:46] <deathkitten> you can't talk in there!!! :P
[01:47] <sharperguy> goose, nope
[01:47] <Reliant> yeesh, it takes my computer 2:30 to get to the GRUB prompt
[01:47] <jrib> wodjop: stop
[01:47] <deathkitten> goose -.-
[01:47] <jrib> pspfreak: what package?
[01:47] <sharperguy> goose, It only happens sometimes though
[01:47] <wodjop> someone do it for me
[01:47] <pspfreak> jrib: X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
[01:47] <wodjop> whats the command in this irc
[01:47] <jrib> pspfreak: what's the name of the package?
[01:47] <jrib> wodjop: /msg ubottu !ati
[01:47] <DjGateway1> I am a newbie to linux but not to computers. I have a specific support question about my install and I am wondering if I ask it here or if I need to go to a more specific site
[01:47] <goose> deathkitten: you must wait for the staff to do another mass voice, then you'll be able to speak
[01:47] <pspfreak> jrib: that is the name acording to synaptic
[01:48] <ikonia> DjGateway1: just ask
[01:48] <jrib> pspfreak: well is it already installed?
[01:48] <sharperguy> !ask | DjGateway1
[01:48] <pspfreak> jrib: is that what you want? xserver-xorg-video-intel
[01:48] <jrib> pspfreak: yes
[01:48] <pspfreak> jrib: that is what it says, and it is installed.
[01:49] <ikonia> goose: we do not use voice in this channel
[01:49] <goose> ikonia: I'm talking about #defocus
[01:49] <ikonia> goose: this is #ubuntu
[01:49] <goose> ikonia: yeah, I know. it's in context of the conversation I was having with deathkitten.
[01:50] <timClicks> slightly obscure ramfs question
[01:50] <ikonia> goose: try to keep to the topic of the channel, #freenode would be the correct support channel
[01:50] <timClicks> is it possible to create a ramfs with a sym link to the hdd
[01:50] <goose> sharperguy: do you have any unkown hardware on your system?
[01:50] <deathkitten> goose: I don't have hours to wait or I'd just wait for reply on the forum :/
[01:50] <goose> ikonia: again, context. I was directing an off topic question to the correct channel. I known the channel guidelines here.
[01:50] <deathkitten> ikonia: stick, butt, pull
[01:50] <timClicks> so that if the pc is rebooted, the ramfs will be populated with the data in the rest of the file system?
[01:51] <sharperguy> goose, Unlikley. This laptop was an inspiron from dell specifically with ubuntu preinstalled (it was a couple years back now though)
[01:51] <jrib> pspfreak: see if the module is getting loaded
[01:51] <DjGateway1> I just did a fresh install of ubuntu on my compaq laptop. A Presario 2710us. I am having issues with alsa. I does support my onboard sound chipset but for some reason only routes sound to the headphone jack and not the onboard speakers.
[01:51] <goose> sharperguy: what distro version are you using?
[01:51] <pspfreak> jrib: how? I'm kind of noob of ubuntu
[01:51] <ikonia> deathkitten: please check your pm's
[01:51] <isolat3dsh33p> !lilo
[01:51] <xim_> on karma, i keep losing the ability to alt-tab, or change window focus by clicking unfocused windows....whats causing this?  im using metacity
[01:52] <jrib> pspfreak: lsmod, but I can't hold your hand right now (busy) try asknig the room for more help
[01:52] <sharperguy> goose, Just basic karmic ubuntu. Although I'm not sure how many times it's been upgraded since a clean install
[01:52] <pspfreak> jrib: okay
[01:52] <goose> sharperguy: strange error... when you open the lid back up, is your caps lock key flashing?
[01:53] <tf01535> is anybody here familiar with multimon, the radio transmission decoder
[01:53] <sharperguy> goose, I don't think so, although it isn't something I've checked for. Like I say it doesn't happen that often so I can't just try it now
[01:53] <pspfreak> jrib: sorry, but it apears like it is not loading
[01:53] <isolat3dsh33p> !wine
[01:53] <goose> sharperguy: blinking caps lock key means kernel panic. none the less, I'd recommend checking your system logs to see if it has anything there, the next time it happens.
[01:53] <jrib> pspfreak: try loading it yourself (modprobe)

[01:56] <koniji> Hey guys, everytime I try to connect to irc.freenode.net with irssi (tried ports 6667 7000 and 8001) my connection is refused. I also tried pidgin with the same error. It works on webchat.freenode.net, what gives?
[01:56] <sharperguy2> goose, well it just happened again. And no, the caps lock key wasn't flashing

[01:57] <con6> anybody? did anybody know about evolution?
[01:57] <koniji> Oh thanks ikonia
[01:57] <sknight> hey ppls

[01:58] <jonz> con6, just a moment
[01:58] <mrpwnage> where are your boot scripts located?
[01:58] <loong> hello
[01:58] <jonz> !hi | loong
[01:59] <shiznebit> anyone know why ubuntuguide.org is suddenly a free domain ?
[01:59] <mrpwnage> where are your boot scripts located?
[01:59] <loong> i install a ubuntu server in virtualbox  how can i get the web ip with the ubuntu server
[01:59] <duvnell1> so I'm livebooted, and I plug in my external HDD, dmesg shows the connection, but I have no device and it does not mount
[01:59] <duvnell1> any ideas?
[02:00] <con6> jonz: the error msg - Host lookup failed: smtp.live.com(Port 25 or 587): Name or service not known
[02:01] <jonz> con6, ok, i'm checking it out now
[02:01] <ikonia> shiznebit: it's nothing to do with ubuntu
[02:01] <con6> jonz: okay
[02:01] <lasivian> i'm trying to add a mount point into a directory on my desktop and it's saying it can't access that directory
[02:01] <lasivian> it works on the desktop, any ideas?
[02:01] <ikonia> !give ikonia a test
[02:01]  * schwezzy gives ikonia a laptop
[02:01] <loong> for example the virtualbox's ubuntu server is <IP_ADDRESS>, how can i ssh it?
[02:01] <shiznebit> ikonia, oh ok
[02:02] <kfizz> What are the pros/cons of having Ubuntu spin down hard disks on AC power?
[02:02] <Fezzler> Ubuntu 9.10 - FireFox 3.5.  YouTube video crashes FireFox
[02:02] <DjGateway1> okay... can anyone point me to a room that can help me out
[02:02] <TomKap> 3.5.5?
[02:02] <kfizz> DjGateway1, what's your problem?
[02:03] <DjGateway1>  just did a fresh install of ubuntu on my compaq laptop. A Presario 2710us. I am having issues with alsa. I does support my onboard sound chipset but for some reason only routes sound to the headphone jack and not the onboard speakers.
[02:03] <wurtog> hi, there is some mirro to cdimage.ubuntu.com ?
[02:03] <wurtog> really slow download here. i want to help beta testing lucid.
[02:03] <Fezzler> TomKap: Yes, 3.5.5
[02:03] <BottomBitch> I'm looking for a program for drawing network diagrams in, can be basic, needs to be free and for a mac
[02:03] <jonz> con6, i don't use hotmail so i'm not sure. you may want to stay on here and see if an actual hotmail user gives you a more experienced answer. otherwise, you may be left with this solution (which honestly don't look difficult in the least, but it indicates that hotmail for some reason requires a different effor to setup with a desktop client)
[02:04] <kfizz> DjGateway1, I'm really not too good with sound issues, but I can try. Have you looked into messing with the Sound Preferences?
[02:04] <jonz> con6 http://www.ubuntugeek.com/send-and-receive-your-hotmail-messages-through-evolution.html
[02:04] <lasivian> "cannot change directory into mount target"
[02:04] <DjGateway1> yes
[02:04] <DjGateway1> i did a lot of research before comming here
[02:04] <mrpwnage> duvnell1: have you tried mounting it?
[02:04] <lasivian> the target directory is fine, it worked before, I umounted and tried again and it's failing
[02:04] <jonz> con6, if that looks confusing, then let me me know
[02:04] <duvnell1> there is no device to mount
[02:05] <Reliant> wow. Plugging my IDE drive back into the PCI card solved everything. It even took over 2 minutes from the time it took to boot into GRUB
[02:05] <duvnell1> mrpwnage: but dmesg shows it plugged in
[02:05] <con6> jonz: i am try to stay first while i am looking at another website given from u.
[02:05] <DjGateway1> i commandlined the alsa mixer to make sure that none of the outputs were muted
[02:05] <lasivian> duvnell1, was that directed to me?
[02:05] <mrpwnage> duvnell1: what does fdisk say?
[02:05] <kfizz> DjGateway1: And the output connector isn't set to headphones, correct?
[02:05] <b0nn> how do I substitute the following in vi all }, replace with new line
[02:05] <duvnell1> no
[02:05] <Decepticon> !swe
[02:06] <duvnell1> mrpwnage: checking
[02:06] <mrpwnage> um
[02:06] <wurtog> hi, there is some mirror to cdimage.ubuntu.com ?
[02:06] <DjGateway1> correct
[02:06] <mrpwnage> good idea. like before you ask in Irc to check that.
[02:06] <jonz> wurtog: why do you ask?
[02:06] <DjGateway1> headphone is not an option
[02:07] <elconsulto> hey guys, is there someone here who could help me install my usb joystick?
[02:07] <ikonia> BottomBitch: this is ubuntu support - so you are offtopic here
[02:07] <kfizz> DjGateway1: Don't mean to be redundant, just covering all the bases. Have the laptop speakers worked before? And if so on what OS(es)?
[02:07] <wurtog> jonz, i am trying to download a beta version of lucid to test and report bugs, but the download rate is horrible. 4k, 12k.
[02:07] <duvnell1> mrpwnage: that /dev/sda* is the internal drive, and no other devices show up
[02:07] <DjGateway1> *nods*
[02:07] <wurtog> jonz, my connection is ok.
[02:07] <DjGateway1> n/p
[02:07] <DjGateway1> and yes
[02:07] <DjGateway1> win xp pro
[02:08] <DjGateway1> i have a dual boot setup right now and have no prob with them in windows
[02:08] <kfizz> DjGateway1: I figured that. Give me a sec to look something up real quick.
[02:08] <mrpwnage> so duvnell1 please fill me in on what is going on and your error.  I lost connectioin
[02:08] <DjGateway1> *nods*
[02:08] <tf01535> could somebody help me with getting multimon working
[02:08] <jonz> wurtog, i'd think mirrors would be more efficient for mass downloads. i don't think you'll find one. just a guess though
[02:09] <preecher> i kno this probly isnt the correct channel -do anyone kno what channel i need to ask for how to view my cam system at my business from my home?
[02:09] <wurtog> jonz, thanks anyway =)
[02:09] <lasivian> stupid, stupid me, I forgot I needed a directory as mount target
[02:09]  * lasivian sighs
[02:10] <kfizz> DjGateway1: Is there a particular reason why you're choosing alsa over pulseaudio?
[02:10] <Typh> Is there any way to hide a folder without renaming it?
[02:10] <BlueG> I've been having random freezes where the cursor still moves, but nothing else works. Switching to a virtual terminal doesn't work and neither does the numlock key, I can't even ssh in. The only thing it responds to (other than moving the mouse around) is the SysRq magic keys.
[02:10] <jonz> typh, yes. i don't remember. but yes.
[02:10] <DjGateway1> it installed by default
[02:11] <leaf-sheep> Typh: No renaming? Hmm. Remove the folder will do the trick.
[02:11] <ikonia> BlueG: sounds like a kernel panic then
[02:11] <elconsulto> how do i get a list of channels in xchat?
[02:11] <islington> Typh: add a "." before the name
[02:11] <Typh> jonz: I should google that. Found the answer immediately, create a file called .hidden
[02:11] <hyperstream> Hey guys i have a serious issue, im trying to fix up my grub , i have two ubuntu's installed one 64bit and one 32bit. all i need atm is the 32bit working for work, im not sure how to go about fixing the grub loader, here is a Pastebin for http://paste.ubuntu.com/337695/
[02:11] <Typh> islington: without renaming
[02:11] <ikonia> hyperstream: are you using a shared /boot partition ?
[02:11] <DjGateway1> some of the research that I did suggested that i install some pulse stuff... which i did. but to no effect
[02:12] <jonz> typh :)
[02:12] <kfizz> DjGateway1: What pulseaudio stuff did you install?
[02:12] <gh0st> quick question, can i use UNetbootin with a Server install CD as compared to a Live Desktop Environment?
[02:12] <islington> Typh: create a broken symlink, then when you want to access folder correct the symlink by hand?
[02:12] <ikonia> gh0st: yes
[02:12] <gh0st> thanks
[02:12] <jonz> typh, keep in mind its still viewable from the command line
[02:12] <Typh> islington: ... what? haha
[02:12] <hyperstream> ikonia, i dont know whats going on to be honest.
[02:12] <con-man> how do I get my computer to share its internet with others?  I have another pooter plugged in to the second ethernet port.  I remember how to do this in windows but not linux
[02:13] <jonz> islington, that's interesting. but not practical. but interesting none the less
[02:13] <DjGateway1> i installed the pulse devicechooser and the volume control along with their corresponding packages
[02:13] <ikonia> hyperstream: you must know if you setup a shared /boot partition or not
[02:13] <hyperstream> ikonia, does my paste explain it perhaps ? whats the best approach to fix this issue,
[02:13] <Typh> jonz: I would image not without explicitly asking to list hidden files, no?
[02:13] <gh0st> is it possible to take a .VDI install from virtualbox and make it a live cd? i REALLY don't want to go through all the hoops to make a custom live cd -.- any ideas?
[02:13] <biabia> ok with open office i am able to open, modify and save .docx files. but I dont see how its able to create a new .docx file.
[02:13] <jonz> typh i believe there is no way to hide something from the following command: `ls -a`
[02:13] <ikonia> hyperstream: I would advise you to re-install both your OS's using a shared /boot partition, it will make managinge and supporting them in the future much much easier
[02:14] <ikonia> gh0st: no
[02:14] <gh0st> lol, thanks again!
[02:14] <jonz> typh, more importantly why do you want to hide it? is it sensitive data?
[02:14] <kfizz> DjGateway1: Have a look at this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[02:14] <hyperstream> ikonia,  every time i instaleld, i hit advanced in the instller and told it to install to the external device
[02:14] <hyperstream> ikonia,  so id say its shared.
[02:14] <kfizz> DjGateway1: Try following those installation isntructions and see if you have any luck
[02:14] <ikonia> hyperstream: it's not
[02:14] <Typh> jonz: oh that's fine, I'm only hiding it from myself.  I'm just going to hide the folder and symlink to it from dropbox
[02:15] <ikonia> hyperstream: 1.) put /boot as 1 partition that both the OS's shared
[02:15] <hyperstream> ikonia, i need to recover a mysql database off it, can i do this from another Linux install and plug in the harddrive?
[02:15] <Typh> It's silly but I'm picky.
[02:15] <ikonia> hyperstream: just boot from the livecd to get the database off the disk
[02:15] <ikonia> hyperstream: then re-install using a shared /boot partition
[02:15] <jonz> typh, i also am fairly annoyed with dropbox's capitilization. keep in mind though that linking will make it so you can't `ls dropbox` the contents
[02:15] <hyperstream> ikonia, thanks mate, might you be able to tell me where they are stored ?
[02:16] <Typh> jonz: I rarely use ls without being in the dir in question anyways
[02:16] <ikonia> hyperstream: look in /etc/my.cnf - they are in the datadir location in there
[02:16] <hyperstream> ikonia, ok so just make a partition (10gig ? ) for /boot and always point installs-boot loaders to the partition?
[02:16] <DjGateway1> kfizz: okay... will do
[02:16] <ikonia> hyperstream: /boot shold be no more than 200 meg
[02:16] <islington> Typh: jonz: oh man that's now bothereing me too :(
[02:16] <ikonia> hyperstream: 10 gig would be a crazy waste
[02:16] <Typh> islington: hahaha
[02:17] <Typh> It's pretty dumb you can't rename it.
[02:17] <jonz> islington typh if you guys want to check the dropbox forums (they've always been very responsive) then it would take care of the laziness in me (i have been meaning to check for a couple months)
[02:17] <hyperstream> ikonia,  ok thanks mate, is there no way i can say reinstall grub too from this live cd to get my sdc8 partition (linux 32bit) up and running ?
[02:18] <jonz> typh, i understand that you can't rename it once its installed. but not being able to rename it *for the installation process* is fairly annoying. however - they have to keep clean somewhere right/
[02:18] <Typh> You used to be able to rename it, but not anymore. You can open it's db and change some base64 string to change it, but that's silly.
[02:18] <ikonia> hyperstream: don't try that - get the data off and re-install both os's with the shared /boot partition, it will stop you wasting a mass ammount of time in the future
[02:18] <Typh> The fact that you can move it but not rename it is... odd.
[02:18] <elconsulto> hey guys, is there someone here who could help me install my usb joystick?
[02:18] <jonz> typh, you can? did you see that in a forum?
[02:18] <Typh> yeah lemme dig up the link
[02:18] <mrpwnage> anyway.
[02:18] <jonz> typh, i'd be willing to jump through that little hoop
[02:19] <kfizz> elconsulto, what seems to be the problem? Ubuntu doesn't automatically recognize and mount it?
[02:19] <mrpwnage> where are the boot scripts located?
[02:19] <ikonia> mrpwnage: /etc/init.d
[02:19] <mrpwnage> for everything?
[02:20] <elconsulto> kfizz: don't think so, nothing happened when i plugged it in and there's no joystick module in lsmod
[02:20] <Typh> jonz: it says on windows, but I don't see why it would be much different http://apocryph.org/2009/05/29/how-to-rename-the-my-dropbox-folder-on-windows/
[02:20] <mrpwnage> or are there ones for different boot inits?
[02:20] <jonz> !init
[02:20] <ikonia> mrpwnage: yes
[02:20] <jonz> typh, thanks a bunch :)
[02:20] <kfizz> elconsulto, I'm sorry I misread your question, I thought you were simply referring to a USB drive. I don't have much experience in joysticks, sorry.
[02:21] <Typh> jonz: there seems to be a python script for doing it as well in the forum link
[02:21] <mrpwnage> ikonia: so what should I see/edit there?
[02:21] <elconsulto> alright
[02:21] <mrpwnage> ?
[02:21] <ikonia> mrpwnage:to do what ?

[02:23] <mrpwnage> ikonia: If I wanted to start in init 1 during boot what shoud I append to the boot menu?

[02:29] <mrpwnage> lilo ftw
[02:29] <EMPulse> kfizz, I uninstalled and reinstalled the browser and it doesn't do anything
[02:29] <ikonia> mrpwnage: then why do you want to update grub ??
[02:29] <kfizz> Helius, since it's nvidia there's a chance it could be a restricted driver issue.
[02:30] <ikonia> mrpwnage: please pastebinr you /etc/lilo.conf

[02:30] <fractalis> Hello everyone, recently ran into this problem. Using GDM and had installed XFCE4. Ran XFCE4 without any problems. Rebooted my machine and when I go to log in, even though I specify XFCE4 as the session GDM runs a Gnome session instead. (This happens when I try to run Fluxbox as well)
[02:30] <EMPulse> kfizz, do you want me to write out the whole problem and post a link?
[02:31] <kfizz> No, issue cat /etc/hosts in a terminal and copy and paste teh output to paste.
[02:31] <mrpwnage> one sec
[02:31] <Fezzler> Dr_Willis: Now here is a guy who knows his stuff.  Why is Firefox crashing upon playing a few seconds of YouTube since upgrade to K?
[02:31] <hoo-hah> K?
[02:31] <EMPulse> kfizz, http://paste.ubuntu.com/337702/
[02:31] <Ntemis> hello
[02:32] <Ntemis> i need some help please
[02:32] <Ntemis> my firefox is f.. up
[02:32] <Ntemis> after update to ubuntu 9.10
[02:32] <Billiard> Ntemis: how so
[02:32] <ikonia> Ntemis: please control your language
[02:32] <hoo-hah> xulrunner?
[02:32] <Ntemis> when i run it it grays out
[02:32] <Ntemis> i remove it and re installed it but the same
[02:32] <Billiard> Ntemis: try running it without addons?
[02:33] <stephen_> hello... having a problem staying connected to WLAN whether using Ubuntu or Windows (dual boot) w/ an Apple Airport... can anyone shed some light on this?
[02:33] <Ntemis> how i manage to do that>
[02:33] <Ntemis> ?
[02:33] <EMPulse> kfizz, I prob should mention that I started having this problem after upgrading to 9.10
[02:33] <EMPulse> kfizz, its like I got a virus or somethiong
[02:33] <mrpwnage> ikonia: hey
[02:33] <swaj> I have a Windows 7 main install, and I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, but grub failed to install because (I think) I have a RAID stripe and my drive is something nuts like /dev/mapper/isw_cjbfhhiefa_MainHD.  Is there a way I can repair grub so it can dual boot windows 7?  I'm booted from the LiveCD right now.
[02:33] <kfizz> EMPulse, that's good. Your hosts file isn't hijacked at least. How do you access the internet? Via a router?
[02:33] <Ntemis> Billiard: how i do that?
[02:33] <ikonia> mrpwnage: hello
[02:33] <Billiard> Ntemis: try renaming your firefox config folder
[02:33] <mrpwnage> ikonia: here it is; http://pastebin.com/d3b67db7c
[02:33] <EMPulse> kfizz, yeah a D-link router
[02:34] <Ntemis> Billiard: where is that?
[02:34] <EMPulse> kfizz, I even changed the DNS settings thinking that the ISP's DNS might be posioned
[02:34] <kfizz> EMPulse, what DNS did you use?
[02:34] <ikonia> mrpwnage: you're not using ubuntu
[02:34] <mrpwnage> yes I am
[02:34] <EMPulse> kfizz, the new google public DNS
[02:34] <b0nn> hrm, my upgrade has gone messy
[02:34] <ikonia> mrpwnage: why is it not in that file ?
[02:34] <EMPulse> kfizz, wait thats the new one
[02:34] <mrpwnage> it is bro-man
[02:34] <hoo-hah> swaj: windows 7 on hardware raid?
[02:34] <Billiard> stephen_: do any devices stay connected to your access point correctly?
[02:34] <ikonia> mrpwnage: where ?
[02:34] <EMPulse> kfizz, the old one is the one that came default with the router
[02:34] <mrpwnage> i call ubuntu slackware
[02:34] <hoo-hah> swaj: I don't think grub can handle that.
[02:35] <elconsulto> kfizz: i don't think this pertains to joystick or jscalibrator but to the Package Installer, do you know what this error message means? "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0)"
[02:35] <Billiard> Ntemis: ~/.mozilla or ~/.firefox maybe idk
[02:35] <ikonia> mrpwnage: don't lie to me -
[02:35] <fractalis> Having a problem with trying to start up XFCE4 - when GDM comes up and I go to log in, even though I specify XFCE4 as my session it runs Gnome instead.
[02:35] <hoo-hah> swaj: I'd use windows 7's bootloader to boot up grub as one of its entries
[02:35] <kfizz> EMPulse, I'm sure google's public DNS is good, but perhaps you could try OpenDNS and see if that resolves any issues...it might not be that though.
[02:35] <Ntemis> Billiard: in home folder?
[02:35] <mrpwnage> actually i do
[02:35] <Billiard> Ntemis: ~ is home directory, yes
[02:35] <stephen_> billiard up until now I had no problems staying connected... and I just did a clean install of 8.10 while partitioning windows to run as well
[02:35] <mrpwnage> i was on the net and heard slackware was cool
[02:35] <mrpwnage> i like the name
[02:35] <swaj> hoo-hah: so do I just boot grub in the bootsector and then use EasyBCD to boot grub in the bootsector?
[02:35] <EMPulse> kfizz, What's messed up is that sometimes when I try to load facebook I get a single line saying "I'll find something to put here" and when I try kogan.com.au I get a line saying "its works"
[02:36] <ikonia> mrpwnage: they are not valid ubuntu kernels in that list either, plus your talking in ##slackware about using slackware - so don't lie
[02:36] <EMPulse> kfizz, I tried openDNS it still happenx
[02:36] <Billiard> stephen_: i doubt ubuntu caused windows wireless not to work correctly
[02:36] <Ntemis> hmm i deleted extensions
[02:36] <Helius> The program 'udo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[02:36] <Helius> sudo apt-get install udo
[02:36] <Ntemis> is in .mozilla
[02:36] <Ntemis> thanks man
[02:36] <Ntemis> ok i am back in bussiness
[02:36] <mrpwnage> ikonia: sir?
[02:36] <ikonia> mrpwnage: what ?
[02:36] <Ntemis> Billiard:  Big thanks to you
[02:37] <kfizz> elconsulto, that means you need that package...try to apt-get install packagename
[02:37] <Billiard> Ntemis: np
[02:37] <mrpwnage> ikonia: wtf ziiirup are you talking about?
[02:37] <kfizz> EMPulse, that's strange. Can you access the sites by IP address?
[02:37] <elconsulto> kfizz: so it wants me to get libglib1.2?
[02:37] <darkipod> sup rom
[02:38] <stephen_> billiard I agree.... I'm just not sure if I need another utility to help stay connected w/ Airport or not I found this article which I have tried to see if it resolves the issue.. http://blog.braceta.com/mac-os-x-airport-internet-sharing-with-ubuntu-with-wep/
[02:38] <darkipod> room*
[02:38] <EMPulse> kfizz, I don't know the IP address for either so I haven't tried, using the https versino of facebook works but not with the images because they load from normal http
[02:38] <kfizz> elconsulto, it appears so.
[02:38] <Newbuntu2> I have 2 winXP installs - how can I choose which one to boot from grub2 instead of going grub2 > windows loader?
[02:38] <hoo-hah> swaj: you don't need a third party bootloader, although many guids suggest it
[02:38] <EMPulse> kfizz, The problems act just like a DNS misdirection, but happens randomly and the sites i get redirected to changes too
[02:39] <Ntemis> thanks guys
[02:39] <hoo-hah> swaj: modification of windows boot.ini and creating an image of grub boot is enough
[02:39] <hoo-hah> swaj: I'm trying to hunt down a tut for you
[02:39] <kfizz> EMPulse, is there any chance someone else could be on your network without you knowing?
[02:39] <EMPulse> kfizz, I use WEP encryption so maybe they might have cracked it
[02:39] <Geekthras> hello, does anyone here know how to bridge a wireless connection to an ethernet one (9.10)? I tried some things online but all they did was make my networking unusable
[02:40] <EMPulse> kfizz, I'll try changing the password and see if it fixed the problem
[02:40] <darkipod> guy what is the command to open up the Document folder using nautilus from the terminal?
[02:40] <hoo-hah> EMPulse: lol WEP is bad. even parts of wpa1 as well
[02:40] <GLG> is there any1 here that can help me with a lua conky nil error on the #conky?
[02:40] <kfizz> EMPulse, turn off wireless and access the router physically (i.e. an ethernet cable if possible) to do that, else a hacker could see what you're changing the password to.
[02:40] <EMPulse> hoo-hah, my WPA config always screw up :(
[02:40] <EMPulse> kfizz, oh, thanks
[02:40] <hoo-hah> EMPulse: keep trying
[02:40] <leaf-sheep> EMPulse: nautilus ~/Photos
[02:41] <tyrone> hi I have tried to change the language of my computer to italian and I did it through the language support window but everytime i set the language to italian it changes itself back to english can anyone help me please?
[02:41] <EMPulse> leaf-sheep, ?
[02:41] <hoo-hah> EMPulse: there's absolutely no reason to keep using WEP, besides financial restrictions
[02:41] <leaf-sheep> darkipod: nautilus ~/Photos
[02:41] <clueless2> anyone knows how to setup Comcast e-mail using Evolution?
[02:41] <leaf-sheep> EMPulse: Sorry. Wrong nickname.

[02:41] <EMPulse> hoo-hah, kfizz, thanks hopefully I'll brb
[02:41] <kfizz> Alright.
[02:42] <tyrone> clueless2, is Comcast pop3?
[02:42] <hoo-hah> swaj: not a tut (google skills are failing me) http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/how-do-i-edit-windows-xp-boot.ini-to-include-ubuntu-711676/
[02:42] <Reliant> Here's a strange problem that happened when I moved my computer into a new case (along with troubleshooting GRUB): One of my SATA drives' partition is no longer recognized by either Ubuntu or Windows
[02:42] <sixtila> i have used ubuntu and i love, is there any other linux distro that should try?
[02:42] <clueless2> tyrone .. yes.   Been working on the bug for a week.
[02:42] <kevdog> Shane_: itdepends on the chipset
[02:43] <om26er> !ot | sixtila
[02:43] <Docteh> !dvd
[02:43] <stephen_> can someone tell me why I can't get into my other nickname Phuzion?
[02:43] <hoo-hah> swaj: essentially: dd if=/dev/linux_boot_partition of=/linux_grub.bin bs=512 count=1
[02:43] <Docteh> dang
[02:43] <tyrone> clueless2, i can't help you sorry
[02:43] <clueless2> i googled but no luck.  good suggestions but it doesn't work
[02:43] <hoo-hah> swaj: actually, post #4 sums it up well
[02:43] <tyrone> can anyone help me change the language on my computer please?
[02:43] <kevdog> Shane_: lspci -nnm should give you the chipset and revision number
[02:43] <clueless2> tyrone ..thanks for ur input
[02:43] <Docteh> is the dvd image just extra language stuff or does it include a good chunk of the apt repository?
[02:43] <darkipod> so with the  " ~/ " command i can use any file manager to open up the Documents folder?
[02:43] <clueless2> anyone knows how to setup Comcast e-mail using Evolution?
[02:44] <hoo-hah> holy cow, this must be one of the busiest chans on freenode
[02:44] <leaf-sheep> Docteh: Multiple languages, I believe.
[02:44] <Shane_> kevdog: apparently, the wireless card doesn't show up in my /sbin/ifconfig so i dont know what to do
[02:44] <Docteh> thx
[02:44] <Newbuntu2> to remove old kernels in synaptic - do I mark fro removal, or complete removal?
[02:44] <XStatik> is the shoutcast dnas server in the apt-get repo
[02:44] <Billiard> darkipod: ~ gets replaced with your home directory
[02:44] <Newbuntu2> that's "for" removal
[02:44] <Satzo_AWAY> clueless2, just as a sidetrip, see if you can get it working with thunderbird
[02:44] <kevdog> Shane_: what does lspci -nnm show?
[02:44] <hoo-hah> Newbuntu2: complete
[02:44] <clearzen> how do I add sshfs mounts to fstab?
[02:44] <stephen_> how come I can't access my user name Phuzion in XChat?
[02:44] <clueless2> Satzo_Away .. hmm.. thunderbird ? is that preinstalled w/ Ubunto?
[02:45] <kevdog> Shane_: Im assuming this is a card attached to the pci bus and not through some USB header
[02:45] <leaf-sheep> darkipod: nautilus is the file manager.  You do "nautilus /the/path/to/be/opened"
[02:45] <Billiard> Newbuntu2: either one should work, i would do complete
[02:45] <GLG> plz help with lua and ill give ur princess back!
[02:45] <kevdog> stephen_: You might need to ghost your nickname and then reclaim it
[02:45] <darkipod> ok
[02:45] <clueless2> i'm in the process of apt-get right now
[02:45] <hoo-hah> clearzen: sshfs#user@<IP_ADDRESS>:/servermountpoint /clientmountpoint fuse defaults 0 0
[02:45] <clueless2> thunderbird
[02:46] <Shane_> kevdog: It is an internal wireless card. both my wired and wireless card doesnt work since i did a fresh install of 9.10, but 9.04 found them just fine. I am uploading the txt of that command now
[02:46] <richart> can someone help me to figure out partition sizes? I see 10 partitions I need to create when installing ubuntu, i want to dual boot ubuntu and windows from 1 disk
[02:46] <stephen_> kevdog... how do I do that? before I reinstalled Ubuntu I didn't have to connect the same way I do now
[02:46] <Satzo_AWAY> clueless2, no but it is a great email app
[02:46] <hoo-hah> clearzen: but there's one extra step (otherwise mtab will disagree with device name)
[02:46] <chilli0> How can i scan over a network in xsane ?( the host is ubuntu)
[02:46] <clueless2> Satzo_AWAY .. i think i've used it before.  i think it'll work but i'll let u all know once it's done
[02:46] <Satzo> !info thunderbird
[02:46] <kevdog> stephen_: Id have to look that up
[02:46] <Billiard> richart: how big is your disk, how much do you want for linux how much for windows
[02:46] <Shane_> Kevdog: Here is the output: http://pastie.org/734784
[02:47] <hoo-hah> clearzen: for options, you'd also need fsname=sshfs#user@<IP_ADDRESS>:/servermountpoint
[02:47] <richart> Billiard: 640GB, and i want half for each (298GB)
[02:47] <kevdog> Shane_: Broadcom Corporation [14e4]" "BCM4312 802.11b/g [4315]" -r01 "Hewlett-Packard Company [103c]" "Device [1507]
[02:47] <stephen_> kevdog thanks.... things have been drastically different since I had to reinstall Ubuntu

[02:47] <Caliginous1> Hi!
[02:47] <jennie> I installed canon2900b printer in ubuntu 9.04 but its not working , please help me
[02:47] <kevdog> stephen_: Why did you have to reinstall?
[02:47] <Caliginous1> is there a good wu-ftpd UI configurator?
[02:47] <hoo-hah> clearzen: np
[02:48] <richart> Billiard: a partition to be shared between the two maybe
[02:48] <stephen_> kevdog.... long story short... I didn't know my password to access the net stayed the same on all networks.. so I tried changing it after I moved to connect to our new network
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> jennie:  check cups.org to see how well the printer is supported. and check out the cups web interface to configure it - would be a place to start
[02:48] <Billiard> richart: i would use an ntfs partition to be shared between the two
[02:48] <pinger> hi
[02:49] <clueless2> Does Ubunto support the webcam Logitech .. Orbit?
[02:49] <kevdog> stephen_: Reinstall just for a password problem??? thats rough
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> !webcam | clueless2
[02:49] <elconsulto> kfizz: I found a version of libglib 1.2 from packages.ubuntu.com but it says it's for jaunty (and older versions), should i go ahead and install it?
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> !hl
[02:49] <kevdog> Shane_: I'm a little bit antiquated on your chipset -- I got to look something up
[02:49] <richart> Billiard: not sure how ig to set the SWAP, /, /home, /usr, /usr/local... etc (all partitions that are asked at install (pc has 4GB ram)
[02:49] <clueless2> Dr. ubottu ..thanks
[02:49] <Shane_> Kevdog: Alright, thanks so much!
[02:50] <stephen_> kevdog... yes cause I screwed alot of stuff up tryin to repair it... I didn't find out that information after I redid EVERYTHING haha... I really wanted to be able to dual boot with Windows anyhow... I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to this OS
[02:50] <chilli0> How can i scan over a network in xsane ?( the host is ubuntu)
[02:50] <stephen_> kevdog however I love Ubuntu... but there's alot I need to learn still
[02:50] <Billiard> richart: all thats required is a / some people recomend a separate /home, you can create a swap file after install instead of using a swap partition as well
[02:51] <richart> Billiard: ic, how big do you recommend / without a /home?
[02:51] <kevdog> Shane_:  Ok its not b43
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> richart:  depends on what you are doing with the system.
[02:51] <Billiard> richart: depends how much you will be doing on lnux
[02:51] <kfizz> elconsulto, you probably don't need libglib 1.2, just something as recent or more recent than the 1.2 version. It appears the latest version is 2.0. sudo apt-get install libglib should work to install it, if not let me know
[02:51] <pinger> how i can shar my internet between windows xp and ubuntu in VMWARE ?
[02:51] <kevdog> Shane_: what's your kernel version?? Hint: uname -r
[02:52] <stephen_> kevdog however... my major problem right now is keeping a steady connection with Airport.. with all my research I've done on it... I haven't come across a good solution yet
[02:52] <kevdog> stephen_: Airport wireless card?
[02:52] <andrewmin> i'm trying to install ubuntu alternate on a computer, but the graphics are all messed up. does anyone have a screenshot step-by-step taht i can follow?
[02:52] <_schism_> evening all
[02:52] <Docteh> richart: X + 4gigs where X is the amount of stuff you plan to have splattered in your /home directory ;)
[02:52] <BobyT> Hi. I am getting this: http://media.photobucket.com/image/weird%20image%20on%20boot/johnnyberk/DSC_0444.jpg on boot. Any ideas?
[02:52] <richart> Billiard: office work, internet, games...
[02:52] <BobyT> Any help would be appreciated
[02:52] <stephen_> kevdog airport base station.. I'm running a Sony Vaio
[02:53] <_schism_> anyone here use ies4linux? I need ie and went to the site but google is saying it is an attack site
[02:53] <mrpwnage> ikonia: I actually had a legit question.
[02:53] <stephen_> kevdog... but the problem doesn't exist in just Ubuntu... I'm having the same problem in Windows XP
[02:53] <elconsulto> kfizz: i got E: Couldn't find package libglib
[02:53] <JoeSomebody> how do you set file type associations for vlc in ubuntu?
[02:53] <JoeSomebody> in vlc or ubuntu?
[02:53] <Satzo> JoeSomebody, right click on a file, properties.. follow
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> _schism_:  it may of been hacked/changed in the last few weeks/days  so google is warning you.  tell it to let you in anyway if you want.
[02:54] <mrpwnage> ikonia: the question was how do I envoke init one from grub menu on boot.
[02:54] <banisterfiend> chrome for linux is out?
[02:54] <Satzo> JoeSomebody, u do it in your window manager..i assume is default
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> JoeSomebody:  right click on a video file, properties ->  set vlc as the default
[02:54] <Satzo> banisterfiend, apparently
[02:54] <puzzle> /server.irc.gefickt.us
[02:54] <banisterfiend> Satzo: is it awesome?
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> banisterfiend:  has been out for some time now.
[02:54] <puzzle> whoops sorry
[02:54] <Satzo> banisterfiend, no idea, i never use it
[02:54] <elconsulto> does anyone know how dx10 support in Wine is coming along?
[02:54] <kfizz> elconsulto: sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-0 try that
[02:54] <Shane_> Kevdog: 2.6.31-14-generic
[02:54]  * Satzo likes firefox addons too much.
[02:54] <_schism_> dr_willis: have you used it? wonder if I should reboot into windoze or is it realyt useful?
[02:54] <Docteh> banisterfiend: the builds from buildbot have been pretty good for the last while
[02:55] <EMPulse> kfizz, damn it, its still doing that
[02:55] <kevdog> Shane_: Is this Karmic?
[02:55] <JoeSomebody> thanks guys
[02:55] <JoeSomebody> so easy :)
[02:55] <kfizz> EMPulse, you've got quite the puzzle here then, it seems haha
[02:55] <ubunewb> How do I update a single package?
[02:55] <Geekthras> can someone please help me with some simple bridging?
[02:55] <pinger> hi, some on can show me how i can to shar my internet with ubuntu (instaled on VMWARE) ?
[02:55] <Satzo> np JoeSomebody
[02:55] <kfizz> EMPulse can you test to see if any other computers on the network have the issue?
[02:55] <darkipod> what does this message  from nautilus:3693 mean http://pastie.org/734791
[02:55] <EMPulse> kfizz, this is a desktop and I have to change it over wifi, I've set the wifi to WPA, could I have a virus of some sort
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> _schism_:  Ive rarely seen a site i need IE for.
[02:55] <ubunewb> I want to update mesa to the latest version.
[02:55] <Shane_> Kevdog: 9.10 Desktop x86
[02:55] <Reliant> how can I find out which physical hard drive Ubuntu is using?
[02:55] <EMPulse> kfizz, yeah, no other comps have this prob
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> _schism_:  and the few i have seen the need.. are due to bad site design
[02:56] <Docteh> ubunewb: apt-get install it? an update may require some other updates though
[02:56] <Satzo> pinger, whats your host and guest OS?
[02:56] <kevdog> Shane_: Did you try installing the restricted drivers package?
[02:56] <mrpwnage> question:  how can I initiate init one upon boot?
[02:56] <EMPulse> kfizz, could is be the ISP's problem? what else besides the ISP is involved in resolving the domain?
[02:56] <kfizz> EMPulse, it's entirely possible it could be a virus, though uncommon on Linux, viruses are possible
[02:56] <richart> thx for hlp, made the partitions, i'll go install now :)
[02:56] <Shane_> kevdog: There isn't any, checked 3 times.
[02:56] <_schism_> dr_willis: yeah my company site is one of those horrid bad designed sites that has to use ie for one area I need :(
[02:56] <Billiard> Reliant: df, maybe
[02:56] <EMPulse> kfizz, the wierd thing is, it always mistakenly redirect me to website I've gone to before
[02:57] <gh0st> how can i mount a usb drive as /dev/cdrom?
[02:57] <EMPulse> kfizz, it never redirects me to a site I've never been to
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> _schism_:  perhaps use xp inside virtualbox..
[02:57] <kfizz> EMPulse, well of course the DNS is involved. But if other computers don't have this issue it could be just your computer.
[02:57] <pinger> ok thx :'-(
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> gh0st:  you MOUNT somthing to a mountpoint ieL /media/cdrom   not /dev/cdrom
[02:57] <kfizz> EMPulse, what browser are you using? Have you tried using other browsers?
[02:57] <EMPulse> kfizz, yeah tried firefox and chrome
[02:57] <EMPulse> uninstalled and reinstalled both
[02:57] <elconsulto> kfizz: that worked, now Package Installer is still giving me that error message
[02:57] <ardchoille> gh0st: /dev/cdrom is the device, /media/cdrom is the mount point
[02:58] <EMPulse> kfizz, I ran chkrootkit incase this is caused by a rootkit or something
[02:58] <kfizz> EMPulse, have you installed anything lately not from the repositories or types of scripts
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> EMPulse:  thers also Opera
[02:58] <kfizz> EMPulse, that's good...you might also try an actual virus scan
[02:58] <Ntemis> anyone that can help me with flickering issue with flash videos?
[02:58] <_schism_> dr_willis: contemplationg that. I just dislike windows that much since switching
[02:58] <kfizz> elconsulto, what error message are you getting?
[02:58] <kevdog> Shane_: You've seen this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1266620
[02:58] <gh0st> its kinda a different thing in trying, im installing ubuntu 9.10 server on a netbook using UNetbootin, and it keeps complaining theres no CD, but it doesnt have a CD drive, so im trying to get it to install from USB, know what i mean?
[02:58] <Ntemis> is it repairable?
[02:58] <Reliant> gah, no wonder I've been having so much trouble for hours. The IDE drive I've been trying to get working, is obsolete with an outdated install of Ubuntu. The SATA drive I thought was inaccessible was actually where I had installed Ubuntu to. Hours wasted 'cause I left an obsolete drive inside my case
[02:58] <elconsulto> kfizz: "Dependency is not satisfiable: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0)"
[02:59] <ubunewb> Docteh: apt-get install doesn't seem to update it?
[02:59] <EMPulse> kfizz, I've only had this problem after the 9.10 update and for a couple of weeks afterwards I couldn't update and none of the repository would load, what virus scanner for linux would you recommend?
[02:59] <kevdog> Shane_: A lot of conflicting info if b43 driver actually works with this chipset!!
[02:59] <kfizz> elconsulto, what's the name of the package you're trying to install? And how are you installing it? Is it a .deb or from Synaptic?
[02:59] <gh0st> i have busybox on a seperate tty though, so it IS possible
[02:59] <Shane_> kevdog: I will give that a try, tnanks!
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> gh0st:  Unetbootin has worked here for me to make a bootable flash drive.. but   i THINK its unetbooting that has issues with the server/alternative installer iso versions..  so you may be wasteing your time.
[02:59] <EMPulse> Dr_Willis, if this problem presists after firefox and chrome(and chromium) changing the brower prob won't help
[02:59] <Helius> Can anyone help me at least be able to play mp3s in Ubuntu please?
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> gh0st:  why do you want the 'server' edition on a netbook anyway?
[03:00] <Ntemis> i have flickering problem with flash videos
[03:00] <kfizz> EMPulse, clamav is really well known, you might give it a shot
[03:00] <stephen_> OMG... someone named Chris stole my name Phuzion
[03:00] <stephen_> LoL
[03:00] <ardchoille> !mp3 | Helius
[03:00] <gh0st> the screen is broken on the netbook, so why not re-purpose it!
[03:00] <Satzo> Helius, did you install restricted extras?
[03:00] <EMPulse> kfizz, do I run it via commandline?
[03:00] <Billiard> Ntemis: did you install flashplugin-nonfree, installed your videocard drivers?
[03:00] <kevdog> Shane_: Are you any good at command line stuff?? Rather than the first 6 steps listed in the tutorial I would skip down later in the thread and just use the commands -- I don't like backports
[03:00] <Ntemis> yes
[03:00] <clueless2> Dr_Willis.. it says it does support for the previous version of Ubunto for the Quickcam Pro 4000 (Logitech).  How do I test the Camera using Ubunto?  Where do I go?
[03:00] <Ntemis> i have flash already
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> gh0st:  I dont think unetbootin + server  edition, or unetbootin  + alternative edition works.
[03:00] <kfizz> Yes, or you can install clamtk which is a GUI frontend
[03:00] <Ntemis> none free though
[03:00] <kfizz> EMPulse ^
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> clueless2:  plug it in . run a webcam app like cheese
[03:01] <Satzo> Helius, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:01] <mrpwnage> how does a person get to a console using ctrl+alt+f2 etc?
[03:01] <EMPulse> kfizz, thanks
[03:01] <clueless2> cheese? where is that?
[03:01] <mrpwnage> on booot
[03:01] <mrpwnage> boot*
[03:01] <Satzo> clueless2, install it
[03:01] <solifugus> How can I download pzip ??   What package?
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> mrpwnage:  disable the gdm service is one way
[03:01] <elconsulto> kfizz: it's the jscalibrator .deb downloaded from packages.ubuntu.com
[03:01] <clueless2> Satzo ..thanks
[03:01] <clueless2> that what I thought anyway ..
[03:01] <swaj> hoo-hah: so I was able to fix it... it's pretty rediculous, but basically I had go into grub, tell it device (hd0) was /dev/mapper/bakjdflkasdjflasj, then set the root (hd0,4), setup (hd0), and finally modify /boot/grub/device.map to point (hd0) to /dev/mapper/kfjsalkdfjhalskfdjha
[03:01] <Satzo> you arent as clueless as you thought.....
[03:01] <Ntemis> Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program.
[03:02] <Shane_> kevdog: In the first post, or a later post? And not really great at commands, but can get around. Also, I tried installing b43-fwcutter before, and that, nor the other one suggested in that topic can be found.
[03:02] <EMPulse> kfizz, would whatever is causing this problem be able to access my files and get my passwords that I've sent over wifi?
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> Ntemis:  what ubuntu version you using? the apt:// type url is new in 9.10 i belive
[03:02] <swaj> hoo-hah: after that, grub loaded and booted Linux like it should
[03:02] <mrpwnage> Dr_Willis: I've tried other distros and the same option is not blocked.
[03:02] <Ntemis> yes i have 9.10
[03:02] <darkipod> no answer for me?? on this http://pastie.org/734791
[03:02] <solifugus> Anyone know how to find out what package contains pzip?  (so I can install it?)
[03:02] <Ntemis> Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program.
[03:02] <kevdog> Shane_: First post in the thread but after the steps number 1-6
[03:02] <Ntemis> how i fix this?
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> mrpwnage:  blocked? what do you mean.
[03:02] <chilli0> How can i scan over a network in xsane ?( the host is ubuntu)
[03:02] <Geoffrey2> any chance of successfully downloading and installing the lucid source code for a 3rd party app on karmic?
[03:02] <kfizz> EMPulse, it's possible. If it is in fact a virus/trojan/worm etc I would expect the worst.
[03:02] <ardchoille> solifugus: apt-cache search pzip
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> mrpwnage:  i can hit alt-ctrl f1 through f5 to get to consoles here. thats normal in ubuntu and most disrtos.
[03:03] <kfizz> EMPulse, not to scare you, simply to cover all the bases
[03:03] <gh0st> why wouldnt "mount /dev/sdb /cdrom" work? that it the temp. install expects it
[03:03] <EMPulse> kfizz, This sucks, do you think during the 9.1-0 update a virus might've come through with it
[03:03] <Shane_> kevdog: ok, will try, thanks
[03:03] <Dr_Willis> gh0st:  try it and see.
[03:03] <ardchoille> gh0st: you need a partition number and sudo
[03:03] <kfizz> EMPulse, if you got the update through the repositories then I'd be willing to say the chances of a virus coming with it are < .00001 %
[03:03] <kevdog> Shane_: Just a glimmer of hope -- seems confusing but its really easy
[03:03] <gh0st> im in busy box, no sudo needed
[03:03] <ardchoille> ah, ok
[03:04] <ardchoille> gh0st: and you probably want to mount to /media/cdrom
[03:04] <EMPulse> kfizz, I had third party repositories but the update-prog disabled them all before the download.
[03:04] <kfizz> elconsulto, try running sudo apt-get install jscalibrator instead of using the deb
[03:04] <mrpwnage> Dr_Willis: Is it only the latter that are normally blocked because I have not tried F1 since thats normally for kernal console output.
[03:04] <gh0st> im struggling to get the USB device mounted, cause i just realised, i could even Symlink the files if needed
[03:04] <kfizz> EMPulse, that's what I figured, so I highly doubt that's how you got a virus, if you did
[03:04] <dew5> hey guys n girls
[03:04] <Caliginous1> why can I not add root as a password?
[03:05] <mrpwnage> Dr_Willis, is it /etc/inittab that I should edit to allow other ones?
[03:05] <Caliginous1> oops
[03:05] <Caliginous1> I want to add root account
[03:05] <Caliginous1> but i can't
[03:05] <EMPulse> kfizz, the problems happen right after the updates, do you think there was a program in my system that downloaded and installed a program around that time?
[03:05] <Caliginous1> home come?
[03:05] <mrpwnage> Caliginous1: there is already a root account
[03:05] <Satzo> !ask | dew5
[03:05] <XStatik> Whats directory should a shoutcast server be installed in
[03:05] <gh0st> interesting, i cant get the stick to mount....
[03:05] <mrpwnage> Caliginous1: whqat do you mean?
[03:05] <dew5> how do i determin which bit version to use 64 or 32?
[03:05] <Satzo> dew5, how much ram you got?
[03:06] <elconsulto> kfizz: E: Couldn't find package jscalibrator
[03:06] <kfizz> EMPulse, it's possible, though I would say it's more unlikely. Are you one to install many many programs?
[03:06] <mrpwnage> dew5: are you an experienced user of 32 or 64?
[03:06] <Caliginous1> mrpwnage:  well, from gftp-admin i tried to add account "root" with a passowrd "xxxxx" , but it said i cou8ld not for protection reasons
[03:06] <kfizz> elconsulto, do you have the universe repositories enabled?
[03:06] <ardchoille> !info jscalibrator
[03:06] <Caliginous1> I need to do this to test somke software
[03:06] <mrpwnage> Caliginous1: it's because you are using ubuntu.
[03:06] <dew5> Satzo thanks so its the spects of your computer that determins the bit version?
[03:06] <elconsulto> kfizz: i think so, i tried searching for it earlier though, ill try again
[03:06] <ardchoille> !root | Caliginous1
[03:06] <dew5> mrpwnage: 32
[03:07] <kfizz> elconsulto, jscalibrator doesn't exist in karmic as ardchoille pointed out.
[03:07] <kishore> how to check if my microphone port is working?
[03:07] <mrpwnage> dew5: then use 32
[03:07] <Satzo> dew5, not at all, but if you have 8Gb or so I would consider 64 bit
[03:07] <EMPulse> kfizz, I don't think I install that many programs, the ones I do I get from the repository usually. If its a virus, why would it randomly redirect my http requests.
[03:07] <Caliginous1> mrpwnage: can I use users settings dialog to change root pass?
[03:07] <dew5> oh ty both
[03:07] <Caliginous1> or this is not good idea?
[03:07] <EMPulse> kfizz, do you think my ip might be targeted in a middle-man attack?
[03:07] <mrpwnage> dew5: you will find many packages lacking and (actually non-existent) if you chose 64
[03:07] <maco> Caliginous1: no you cant and no its not a good idea
[03:07] <ardchoille> !sudo | Caliginous1: There is no need to add a root password:
[03:07] <mrpwnage> Caliginous1: sudo passwd
[03:08] <elconsulto> kfizz: odd, ill look into that
[03:08] <Satzo> mrpwnage, i just installed 8Gb ram today, im on the fence to go 64 bit for that reason....
[03:08] <EMPulse> kfizz, given that https requests are unaffected
[03:08] <ardchoille> mrpwnage: That is neither supported nor recommended. Please don't teach people that here
[03:08] <kfizz> EMPulse, you never know what malware will do. It may be designed simply to mess with your. Or it could just be some bug that's hard to track down.
[03:08] <Caliginous1> ubottu: I need to add a password to test software I wrote. They have passwordfor root on their machine
[03:08] <mrpwnage> ardchoille: please explain.
[03:08] <kfizz> EMPulse, that is possible, now that you mention it.
[03:08] <ardchoille> !sudo | mrpwnage Please read:
[03:09] <mrpwnage> Satzo: I would go 64 with 8 g
[03:09] <Caliginous1> I can not SUDO ~!!!!
[03:09] <stephen_> .
[03:09] <gdiz_> hey everyone I am looking to get MPD up and running and I am having trouble connecting from outside of the box running mpd.  I can get mpd running using "localhost" as the server but then when I try to connect via another computer or even on the computer running mpd with the actual ip address (<IP_ADDRESS>), I get nothing.  Do you have any ideas?
[03:09] <lasivian> ok, I made several shares in my fstab and they are all appearing on my desktop, how can I keep them from appearing on my desktop (they are directed towaqrds the /media dir)
[03:09] <EMPulse> kfizz, if I find the bastard who's doing this I'm going to tracerroute and DDoS the hell out of him.
[03:09] <Caliginous1> I wrote software to log into ftp account that has root as a user
[03:09] <kishore> Satzo: Hello Satzo,i want one more help today..could u pls let me know how i can test whether my microphone port is working?
[03:09] <ardchoille> Caliginous1: No one i their right mind would use ftp as root
[03:10] <Satzo> kishore, accessories > sound & video > sound recorder
[03:10] <mrpwnage> Satzo: because it's a workaround in 32 bit.  with that much ram I would go gung ho and make a dent. :)
[03:10] <maco> Caliginous1: ssh and ftp are two things where you REALLY want root login disabled
[03:10] <kfizz> EMPulse. Haha, that's always one way to get 'em back. Just be careful. And for ethical/legal reasons, I don't recommend it :)
[03:10] <System-7> Hello. How do I start Ubuntu with ACPI disabled?
[03:10] <Caliginous1> I WROTE A JAVA PROGRAM FOR A CLIENT, I WANT TO TEST IT, PART OF THE PROGRAM FTP'S FILES TO A SERVER. THEIR FTP SERVER HAS "root"  AS USER. THEREFER, I WANT TO ADD IT TO MY FTP SERVER SO I CAN TEST THAT MY FTP PART OF APP WORKS
[03:10] <Geoffrey2> it probably doesn't need to be said, but I hate to assume anything....if you don't have a 64 bit processor, obviously don't try to use the 64 bit version of Ubuntu...
[03:10] <Satzo> mrpwnage, im considering :) :)
[03:10] <kishore> Satzo: It says stream has no data when i record my voice
[03:10] <maco> Caliginous1: id rewrite that software to not make assumptions of terrible security
[03:10] <Satzo> kishore, goto terminal and type alsamixer
[03:10] <Satzo> see whats going on
[03:11] <ardchoille> Caliginous1: I feel you need to rewrite that software for user use, not root
[03:11] <ubunewb> solifugus:
[03:11] <mrpwnage> Satzo: i would. just there are some packages that you will have to deal with keep in mind.
[03:11] <EMPulse> kfizz, he can have fun complaining to the courts about getting DDoS after spoofing my connections
[03:11] <ubunewb> oops
[03:11] <Ntemis> i have installed latest flash player but still have flickering issue
[03:11] <Sacho> Caliginous1: why is the user hardcoded? can't you just change it to "someuser"?
[03:11] <Ntemis> in full screens
[03:11] <mrpwnage> Satzo: I have used 64bit system and it's more responsive.
[03:11] <Caliginous1> I can not do that.
[03:11] <Caliginous1> it is there machine their setup
[03:11] <Ntemis> flash video in full screen flickers badly
[03:11] <EMPulse> kfizz, clamav is installing, do you know the commandline to scan all systems?
[03:11] <Sacho> but you want to test it on your ftp server.
[03:12] <System-7> I'm not sure where to enter something like "acpi=off"
[03:12] <Caliginous1> I'm only testing... I could careless the whys and whatf fors they did that
[03:12] <ardchoille> Caliginous1: You seem to be supporting very bad security practices
[03:12] <Sacho> for which you can change the user to a testuser :)
[03:12] <Satzo> mrpwnage, once i learn how to dd my / partition, and learn how to reinstall without wrecking /home, ill go 64 bit
[03:12] <Caliginous1> ardchoille: so what? I have no idea how it used that is not my job to question
[03:12] <Caliginous1> screw it
[03:12] <Caliginous1> i'll force it by editing config files
[03:12] <Caliginous1> hehehe
[03:12] <ubunewb> Hi! So, I accidently installed "libg11-mesa-swx11", how do I remove it without making ubuntu uninstall the dependencies?
[03:12] <chilli0> How can i scan over a network in xsane ?( the host is ubuntu)
[03:13] <joshritger> I am using ndiswrapper to get my wifi card to work, I had an install up and running with this card in the past, the problem is that I see my network but it always fails when it is obtaining the IP Adress. I followed the ndiswrapper documentation also. Any ideas? Oh and I have wicd installed currently, but it was not working with network manager
[03:13] <kfizz> EMPulse, unfortunately I do not. I've never used clamav, I just know it's probably the most popular *nix AV
[03:13] <System-7> Does anyone know?
[03:13] <EMPulse> kfizz, thanks I'll check the man
[03:13] <Sacho> Caliginous1: you can do sudo passwd
[03:13] <ubunewb> I don't want 172 MB to be freed. :(
[03:13] <Sacho> Caliginous1: that is written in the link they gave you twice.
[03:14] <Caliginous1> Sacho: yeah, but i will also have to manually edit wuftp-d config files because UI will not let me add "root" as user because it is security risk
[03:14] <System-7> Hi.
[03:14] <kfizz> EMPulse, have you tried using w3m and seeing if it causes the same redirects? It's pretty lightweight, being only text-based, so it could help troubleshoot...
[03:14] <mrpwnage> Satzo: Multilib is what you need for 32bit apps on 64 bit systems.
[03:14] <Caliginous1> Sacho: thanks reading it now!!!
[03:14] <Caliginous1> thanks ppl and by bye!
[03:14] <clearzen> I've added sshfs mounts to be automatically mounted on startup. I've also copied id_dsa.pub from my desktop to the server. But it still asks for a password, any idea why?
[03:14] <System-7> hello
[03:14] <slestak> i have screwed up my gdm trying to downgrade it from 2.28 to 2.20
[03:14] <EMPulse> kfizz, I'll install it, what is it?
[03:14] <kishore> Satzo: Thanks :)..now it seems to be working..donno how !!
[03:15] <kfizz> EMPulse, it should be installed by default, it's a text-based web browser
[03:15] <khensthoth> ubunewb: Dependencies grabbed during the installation of a package aren't remove when you remove that package unless you specifically issue a command to remove it.
[03:15] <Satzo> kishore, look at you go. :P   You'll be in here helping others in no time
[03:15] <crazygir> any wacom users around? I'm reading that 9.04 has support for wacoms out of the box, though I haven't had such luck. is there any specific confugration needed?
[03:15] <slestak> the only errors i see appear to be in :0-greeter.log
[03:15] <mrpwnage> Satzo: you will also need a 64 bit gcc to compile apps for 64bit bud.
[03:15] <kfizz> EMPulse, just fire up a terminal and type w3m www.something.com
[03:15] <newbutnu> greetins. Strange question, I would like to click the mouse over a picture of something, I would like
[03:15] <EMPulse> kfizz, thanks, doing it now
[03:15] <kishore> Satzo: Will definitely..if i can :0
[03:15] <System-7> aloha
[03:15] <kfizz> Then, from there type U (capital) and you can go to different websites
[03:15] <Satzo> mrpwnage, im not near ready for that learning curve.. last time i compiled stuff was 80s with 6809 assembly language
[03:16] <kfizz> EMPulse, see above, and also, obviously you can't see things like flash video, adobe refuses to release a flash plugin for w3m ;)
[03:16] <slestak> pastebinning the file now
[03:16] <mrpwnage> Satzo: bro, nothing to compiling
[03:16] <newbutnu> the mouse click time/locations to be translated into a file such as "x:#,y:#,t:#"
[03:16] <ubunewb> khensthoth: Can I remove only that package i.e "libgl1-mesa-x11"??
[03:16] <System-7> hola
[03:16] <EMPulse> kfizz, its playing nice right now, I've got to find a domains that gives me a redirect
[03:16] <ubunewb> ubunewb: It changed the opengl renderer from "Mesa Intel...." to "Mesa X11". Now I can't seem to open any windows.
[03:17] <System-7> its apparently far too crowded in here
[03:17] <slestak> http://pastebin.com/fbed589a
[03:17] <researcher1> which application in UBUNTU can provide One teacher terminal and many student terminals?
[03:17] <Satzo> mrpwnage, I found a primer on multilib   -->   http://www.redhat.com/magazine/009jul05/features/multilib/
[03:17] <kfizz> EMPulse, if you do find out that it gives you a redirect it reinforces the fact that the problem lies at your end (since all other comps on your network are acting nice). If it doesn't, it makes things more confusing :) Anyways, I hope you get things figured out, but I have to go for now, I might be on later.
[03:18] <System-7> so, can anyone help me?
[03:18] <Satzo> !ask System-7
[03:18] <System-7> I did
[03:18] <slestak> researcher1: Multiseat X can do that
[03:18] <EMPulse> kfizz, thanks for all the help
[03:18] <mrpwnage> Satzo: if you get a pm from spooks, it's cool he's a bud.
[03:18] <kfizz> EMPulse, no prob. best of luck.
[03:18] <gmachine_24> Hey - I bought a new computer which runs the 64-bit version of Vista Home Premium - which I plan to replace with Ubuntu 9.10. Is there a 64-bit version other than the AMD64-bit version - i.e. is there a 64-bit version for Intel computers?
[03:18] <EMPulse> kfizz, btw, w3m doing the same thing as all the browsers
[03:18] <EMPulse> kfizz, looking like a middle-man attack
[03:18] <slestak> gmachine_24: same works on both
[03:18] <khensthoth> ubunewb: You can remove that package, although I don't know if it's going to help solve your problem.
[03:18] <Billiard> gmachine_24: amd64 is for intel also
[03:19] <gmachine_24> slestak, Billiard, OK guys, thanks.
[03:19] <Satzo> mrpwnage,  ok
[03:19] <slestak> gmachine_24: good luck with it
[03:19] <kfizz> EMPulse, so it's definitely not an application issue. Hopefully either clamav finds something or you can find some other way to get it resolved....did you reset your router after resetting your pw?
[03:19] <System-7> Okay, here goes again: How can I get Ubuntu to boot with acpi disabled?
[03:20] <EMPulse> kfizz, yeah, I might have to just do a clean reinstall, thanks for all the help
[03:20] <gmachine_24> System-7 can you disable ACPI in the BIOS?
[03:20] <DasEi> !bootoptions | system-7
[03:20] <System-7> no
[03:20] <researcher1> thanks slestak
[03:20] <slestak> System-7: i _think_ you can put noacpi on your grub kernel parameters line
[03:20] <kfizz> EMPulse, alrighty, good luck. And you could try a live cd instead of a reinstall right away.
[03:20] <Satzo> System-7, i googled disable acpi ubuntu and got hits
[03:20] <EMPulse> kfizz, yeah, thanks
[03:20] <System-7> okay, is "noacpi" the command or "acpi=off"?
[03:20] <slestak> at the grub menu, you can choose e to edit it and try it for one boot before you commit it to menu.lst
[03:21] <nbros652> I have a computer that was dropped, and I would like to check the integrity of the hard drive. Is there any utility available that accomplishes these purposes?
[03:21] <DasEi> nbros652: e2fsck
[03:21] <elconsulto> nbros652: a regular surface scan would do the trick
[03:21] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any way to force a makefile to compile?
[03:21] <EMPulse> Hey guys, does anyone know what the "recursive" option in clamav mean?
[03:21] <solifugus> How can I make files show in list view, instead of chaotic icons all over--always by default?
[03:21] <slestak> any gdm gurus can helpme decipher what i've done to my karmic install?  pastebin at http://pastebin.com/fbed589a
[03:21] <researcher1>  I did not find Multiseat X software anywhere. Help?
[03:22] <EMPulse> and unbelievably it found 2 viruses
[03:22] <nbros652> DasEi, elconsulto: Thanks guys.
[03:22] <EMPulse> viruses on linux
[03:22] <EMPulse> that's the end of the world
[03:22] <khensthoth> EMPulse: Probably scanning files inside a folder, or folders inside of folders.
[03:22] <EMPulse> khensthoth, oh, cool.
[03:22] <DasEi> EMPulse: directories includes, win files ? which ones ?
[03:22] <Satzo> nbros652, fsck
[03:23] <EMPulse> DasEi, this is a pure linux install
[03:23] <EMPulse> DasEi, don't think there are any win files left over after 5 years
[03:23] <DasEi> EMPulse: where you can also /l winstuff
[03:23] <khensthoth> researcher1: http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/Multiseat
[03:23] <System-7> does it matter where on the grub line I add the commands?
[03:24] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any way to force a makefile to compile (specifically the greenscreen plugin for compiz, which isnt recognizing that its installed)
[03:24] <System-7> or can I just append them to the end?
[03:24] <researcher1> khensthoth thanks
[03:24] <leftyfb> Me and some others have noticed since an update of nautilus/gvfs the past couple weeks, usb drives aren't showing up in Places or automounting. A manual mount works, but not auto. Has anyone else noticed this?
[03:25] <administrador> hola
[03:25] <Satzo> leftyfb, once in awhile, yes
[03:25] <administrador> hola
[03:25] <slestak> System-7: end is fine
[03:25] <administrador> como estan todos
[03:25] <ardchoille> !es | administrador
[03:25] <DasEi>  system-7 : see the given link
[03:26] <EMPulse> Hey uh, clamav can delete viruses right?
[03:26] <Satzo> EMPulse, nope
[03:27] <Satzo> EMPulse, at least clamwin can't.  sorry if i am confusing ya
[03:27] <DasEi> EMPulse: no, which where found ?
[03:27] <System-7> hmmm the commands aren't working.
[03:27] <leftyfb> i'm pretty sure clamav will delete or at least quarantine virus's it finds
[03:27] <System-7> just a blank screen
[03:28] <Shane_> kevdog: Hey, it says to install b43-fwcutter, which I still can't find. It says something about downloading a file, right below it. do you think its the fwcutter?
[03:28] <Johnn> I need help modifying permissions for my home folder
[03:28] <DasEi> System-7: you try to boot a live cd ?
[03:28] <mezquitale> anyone here plays quake3 on ubuntu?  I can only run quake 3 using sudo
[03:28] <Sacho> Johnm: particularly?
[03:28] <EMPulse> DasEi, So far 2 viruses have been found
[03:28] <System-7> I can boot the live CD fine
[03:29] <Sacho> mezquitale: are you sure all its files are accessible by your user
[03:29] <slestak> mezquitale: is it installed in /home or by apt?
[03:29] <System-7> as long as I press F6 and choose acpi=off
[03:29] <Johnn> moving a radeon driver in there but it says only owner can do it
[03:29] <DasEi> EMPulse: any names/idents ?
[03:29] <System-7> but the install just hangs
[03:29] <Johnn> its just /home
[03:29] <DasEi> System-7: you used the check integrity function of it ?
[03:29] <epinky> Johnn: sudo mv ?
[03:29] <mezquitale> Sacho, I installed quake3 in /usr/local/games/quake3,  I used to be able to do that, havent played quake3  in a long while, I installed a fresh copy of karmic, now quake only runs using sudo
[03:30] <EMPulse> DasEi, can't find an option that lets me see the id on the virus, prob be in the log after the scan finishes
[03:30] <System-7> You mean of the CD?
[03:30] <Johnn> so that's sudo mv [file] [dest]
[03:30] <DasEi> EMPulse: right, ah still running
[03:30] <mezquitale> slestak, you cant install quake3 using apt, you have to follow directions from the forum
[03:30] <Sacho> mezquitale: can you check what permissions the quake folder has
[03:30] <slestak> mezquitale: sorry
[03:30] <genii> Johnn: /home  is not where a users files are. They are in /home/username
[03:30] <System-7> the CD was fine
[03:31] <mezquitale> Sacho, I changed the permissions in my home directory, the permissions on /usr/local/games/quake3 are for root
[03:31] <Johnn> okay I'm trying to follow instructions here:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=295657
[03:31] <DasEi> System-7: kinda machine you install to ?
[03:31] <System-7> Macbook 5,2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-2/Karmic
[03:31] <zcat[1]> !res
[03:32] <genii> Johnn: When an instruction says something to the effect: copy the file to your home folder     it means: copy the file to /home/your-username-here
[03:32] <Sacho> mezquitale: "the permissions are for root"? Depending on where quake3 is writing its files, you might need write permissions on those files, and you at the very least need read permissions, and possibly execute permissions on the executable
[03:32] <Johnn> okay. Thanks for the help.
[03:32] <DasEi> Johnn: are you trying to install prop driver for x 1400 ?
[03:33] <System-7> I think it may be ignoring the acpi=off command
[03:33] <elconsulto> is there a good HD 5870 driver yet?
[03:33] <DasEi> System-7: ok , Ill pass on this no mac user
[03:33] <mezquitale> Sacho, in other words I should install quake3 in my home directory?  I was able to install it in /usr/local/games some time ago though
[03:33] <Spoom> hi folks, i'm attempting to burn a dvd iso to a dvd+r disc and getting errors in both brasero and dvdrecord; cdrecord gives me:

[03:34] <chronos> blz pssoal
[03:34] <Shane_> kevdog: I'm going to attempt to find it on the net, and install it from a usb.
[03:34] <Spoom> dvdrecord: Drive does not support TAO recording.
[03:34] <Sacho> mezquitale: try moving it to your home and chowning it to yourself, if it runs, then it was a permissions problem :)
[03:34] <Orion777> anyone know how tome have it automatically put in a pw for an app? cause I have to do it everyti
[03:34] <Orion777> everytime
[03:34] <mezquitale> Sacho, I'll just install it to my home directory then, problem solved, thanks

[03:35] <slestak> ive installed a pci card on my media server, and now i cannot poweroff, machine reboots instead. anyone seen this before?  I am aboutto move it to another slot
[03:35] <mezquitale> Sacho, do you know how I would uninstall quake 3?!?
[03:35] <chronos> como eu consigo fazer com que algo recheque os pacotes e reinstale eles todos?
[03:35] <Sacho> no idea, if you installed it with apt-get, you can remove it through it...
[03:35] <chronos> eu desconfio que tenho algumas libs/executaveis corrompidos no sistema
[03:35] <altavatar> Ive encrypted a softraid raid1 dev w/ 2 drives using dm-crypt and luks. Im trying to test stopping the raid, removing one of the drives, and mounting it (decypted). everytime I try cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb4 It gives me an error and if I check /proc/mdstat i see that it's been re-added to the array. This after i failed the dev, removed it from the raid array and stopped the raid array. It appears like cryptse
[03:35] <Sacho> if not, it might just be in one dir, so you could just delete that *shrug*
[03:35] <mezquitale> Sacho, have you ever used quake 3?  You cant install quake 3 using apt-get
