[13:33] <DIL> screen ??.  at Alt- ctrl-f1 i can login using my user name.  any help is greatly appreciated.
[13:33] <Polah> no_gravity, yes and? I only have 2GB and I run 64bit. You have a 64-bit capable processor and everything these days is moving away from 32-bit. Thus, it makes sense to use 64-bit.
[13:34] <reisio> it's like deciding whether to put a steam engine or an internal combustion engine into your new car
[13:34] <no_gravity> Polah: you keep saying the same, but give no reasons for it.
[13:34] <Polah> no_gravity, I just gave you the reasons why...
[13:34] <dr_willis> 64bit  video encoding is faster then 32bit ive noticed..  :)
[13:34] <reisio> no_gravity: the biggest reason for using 64-bit is that there aren't any good reasons to not
[13:34] <no_gravity> reisio: 64 bit will run noticeable faster?
[13:34] <turboneat> the cool thing about 64-bit operating systems is that they can address more than 4gb of memory
[13:34] <reisio> but it will make your system measurably more efficient, too
[13:34] <reisio> no_gravity: noticeable to a human, possibly not
[13:35] <reisio> to a scientific instrument, yes
[13:35] <dr_willis> You wont need to worry about a mixed network/lan/setup of 32 and 64bit machiens.. if everything is 64bit,,
[13:35] <Polah> no_gravity: Everything is moving towards 64-bit, 32-bit systems will be obsolete in a few years or thereabouts. 64-bit processing is a bit more efficient. You will have a much higher memory limit should you wish to improve later. You will have a much higher virtual memory limit for programs. There's a lot of other reasons as well.
[13:35] <no_gravity> reisio: ok, so i think the conclusion is that thereis no upside of 64 bit.
[13:35] <dr_willis> a 2 hr video encode - is noticeable differance in 64 vs 32..
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> no_gravity: in cpu intensive stuff it helps, with normal web browsing and stuff the difference is negligable
[13:35] <reisio> no_gravity: no you've got it backwards, there's no upside to 32
[13:35] <no_gravity> Polah: i dont use a lot of virtual memory
[13:35] <Polah> no_gravity: No. There are lots of benefits, you just seem to be ignoring what we're saying for some foolish reason...
[13:36] <dr_willis> so for 5% of the jobs.. you gain 10% bonus....
[13:36] <reisio> because someone told him to use 32 :P
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> some 3rd parties only support 32bit, so you may be held back by that (Brother drivers etc)
[13:36] <dr_willis> flip a coin i guess.. :)
[13:36] <no_gravity> reisio: no upside to 64 bit and no upside to 32 bit. i understood that.
[13:36] <Polah> no_gravity: You probably don't think you do, or indeed you might not, but some day you might and then you're in a hole if you're using a 32-bit system...
[13:36] <reisio> no_gravity: no, there's no upside to 32-bit
[13:36] <reisio> no_gravity: the upside to 64-bit is there but you probably won't notice it
[13:36] <monov> Hi. Can anyone help me find a Qt Jambi 4.6.3 package for Oneiric? All I see in apt is 4.7. Or in general, how do I find older versions of packages that are in apt?
[13:36] <reisio> however they both cost the same, you may as well use the one with the upside, even if you won't notice it
[13:37] <Polah> no_gravity: Please stop being ignorant. We have told you why 64-bit processing is superior to 32-bit. If you don't want to use 64-bit, then you're going to be worse off. It's your choice in the end.
[13:37] <no_gravity> Polah: some day? some day there will be ubuntu v17. and i will install that.
[13:37] <turboneat> I still use an 8088
[13:37] <reisio> monov: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=jambi&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
[13:37] <turboneat> it's hard to run pidgin on it
[13:37] <dr_willis> turboneat:  i got my TimexSinclare 1000 here...
[13:38] <Polah> no_gravity: Some day in this case is in a year or two, judging by how quickly technology advances and the current moves to 64-bit.
[13:38] <reisio> monov: looks like something has changed keeping it from being added to recent releases
[13:38] <no_gravity> well, i download the 64 bit version now. but i still think there is no upside.
[13:38] <Polah> dr_willis: Are there really issues with different architecture systems networking?
[13:38] <reisio> no_gravity: there is, trust :)
[13:38] <Muloza> Lol turboneat :-).
[13:38] <dr_willis> 10% gain in math intensive tasks.. is an upside...
[13:38] <turboneat> no_gravity: do you have, or do you intend on having more than 4gb of ram?
[13:38] <Polah> no_gravity, that's because you've decided not to read what we've said.
[13:38] <reisio> turboneat: really isn't relevant
[13:38] <Muloza> no_gravity: There are many upsides when you have 64bit hardware.
[13:38] <iceroot> turboneat: amd64 is worth using when you have more then 1gb ram
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> no_gravity: also helps if you want to upgrade past 3gb RAM
[13:39] <no_gravity> turboneat: one day. probably. but inbetween i will probable reinstall ubuntu another 10 times.
[13:39] <turboneat> reisio: I don't understand.
[13:39] <iceroot> turboneat: because of the virtual memory-pages
[13:39] <Muloza> Just writes the application memory directly to your RAM instead to the harddisk. Much faster.
[13:39] <reisio> 64-bit is going to be a better choice regardless of how much RAM he has
[13:39] <iceroot> reisio: correct
[13:39] <reisio> yes, if you're going to use ridiculous amounts, 64-bit becomes the _only_ choice
[13:39] <no_gravity> ive been using ubuntu since ubuntu 5. i never ugraded it. always installed from scratch.
[13:39] <reisio> but still, regardless
[13:39] <Pessimist> reisio, why it is faster to use 64 bit version while you have less than 4gb ram?
[13:39] <turboneat> oh i see
[13:40] <reisio> no_gravity: how tedious
[13:40] <dr_willis> but you  did not even know how to tell a 32bit from 64bit cpu... weird....
[13:40] <no_gravity> dr_willis: always used 32 bit so far
[13:40] <Polah> no_gravity: As I said, "one day" will actually be quite soon.
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> no_gravity: i always clean install too
[13:40] <dr_willis> well whatever... time to get back On topic i think...
[13:40] <reisio> Pessimist: it's 18 years of hardware improvement
[13:41] <no_gravity> reisio: and before that i used debian.
[13:41] <asdjaputra> x86=32-bit
[13:41] <asdjaputra> amd64=64bit
[13:41] <asdjaputra> isn't it quite obvious?
[13:41] <reisio> heh
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> x86_64 = 64bit
[13:41] <dr_willis> C64 = 8 bit..
[13:41] <dr_willis> :)
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> Jaguar = 64bit
[13:41] <dr_willis> Shave and a Hair Cut = 2 bits....
[13:42] <dr_willis> and im off to the store..
[13:42] <monov> reisio: thanks!
[13:42] <reisio> and I'm off to make cheese grits
[13:42] <Muloza> Why are we discussing 32 vs 64 bit exactly? :P
[13:42] <iceroot> Muloza: nothing else to do
[13:42] <episteme> cause of a very successful troll >.>
[13:42] <Muloza> iceroot: Seems legit.
[13:43] <asdjaputra> trolol.lol.
[13:44] <turboneat> Back in my day we had IPv4 and we liked it
[13:44] <Muloza> Is there any chance 11.10 physically blew up my extern videocard? :P
[13:45] <dr_willis> Muloza:  what kind of external video card?  i would doubt it could blow it up
[13:45] <Muloza> dr_willis: Nvidia 9600GT. Only thing working on it is its fan.
[13:45] <dr_willis> i saw some review  of a external usb video monitor the other day.. :)  havent seen one yet..
[13:46] <episteme> Muloza: you check drivers?
[13:46] <dr_willis> Muloza:   I doubt if ubuntu could drive it till it breaks.. but  it could break for other reasons..
[13:46] <Pessimist> So should I consider switching to 64bit if I have less than 4gb of ram?
[13:46] <dr_willis> Pessimist:  i say yes.
[13:46] <Polah> turboneat: Yeah, the best bit was assigning some companies 16 million IPs and then having them only use a small fraction of that (:
[13:46] <dr_willis> i always use 64bit os on any thing that can do 64bit..
[13:46] <Muloza> episteme: Yes. All fine. Same drivers as before.
[13:47] <Pessimist> I don't get whats the difference if I have 2gb of ram between 64bit and 32bit
[13:47] <dr_willis> 10% gain in math intensive tasks.. is an upside...
[13:47] <dr_willis> if i rember the benchmark/summary i read ages ago on 64 vs 32 bit...
[13:48] <dr_willis> and im not sure theres much if any flash/java/driver issues with them these days...
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> Pessimist: encode an audio file under 64bit and 32bit on the same hardware and you'll see it ;)
[13:48] <_graham_> Hiya. Not sure if this is the right place to ask? But I have a weird problem with Gnome Shell and Netbeans, and I can't find much on the web about it...
[13:48] <dr_willis> If a company is only supplying 32bit drivers.. well.. its time to move to a differnt brand/company
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> 64bit flash and 64bit Java exists ;)
[13:48] <Polah> Pessimist, the benefits go beyond just physical RAM limits.
[13:49] <_graham_> Essentially, Netbeans sometimes thinks my mouse pointer position is off by about the size of the top panel, which makes it tricky to use...
[13:50] <_graham_> And it seems that - as far as the mouse goes - the context menus aren't there at all...
[13:51] <Muloza> _graham_: Only in Netbeans?
[13:51] <_graham_> Muloza: Only in Netbeans, and only in Gnome Shell. Other applications in Gnome Shell work fine, and Netbeans in Unity works fine
[13:52] <Pessimist> http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-904-32-bit-vs-64-bit-benchmarks
[13:52] <dr_willis> netbeans is a java app right?
[13:52] <_graham_> Yes
[13:52] <Mion> Pessimist: so old
[13:52] <Mion> also so flawed
[13:52] <dr_willis> test out otehr java apps and see  if they show the same issue..
[13:53] <_graham_> Oxygen XML is also a Java application though, and that works fine
[13:53] <Pessimist> Mion, then post a newer benchmark between 64bit and 32bit
[13:53] <no_gravity> Will 32bit applications run on a 64 Ubuntu with the same speed as on a 32bit Ubuntu?
[13:53] <dr_willis> I recall java apps having issues in the past with dual monitor setuops and other things..
[13:53] <Mion> no_gravity: same speed or really unoticably slower
[13:53] <dr_willis> but other systems may be a bit faster.. so its hard to tell :)
[13:54] <dr_willis> I was thinking  that andtech site had 64/32 benchmarks ages ago.. but these days..  its not really on the radar.
[13:55] <Mion> dr_willis: java apps still often behaves badly in dualscreen setups, also they usually have trouble with non-reparenting window managers
[13:55] <_graham_> I have just tested, and Netbeans when it's not maximised works fine too, but when maximised it has the issues...
[13:55] <kamidi> sopcast-player and oneiric 64bit? it segfaults when trying to execute
[13:55] <dr_willis> Mion:  sounds right to me. :)
[13:55] <zivester> do sandy bridge cpu/mobo combos work with the GPU (intel 3000) or do I need to buy a separate GPU
[13:55] <dr_willis> its missreading the actual screen size would be my guess _graham_
[13:55] <_graham_> And yes - this is a dual screen setup...
[13:55] <no_gravity> Mion: ok, thanks
[13:56] <dr_willis> bbl.
[13:57] <Mion> zivester: they work mostly fine
[13:57] <Mion> zivester: standalone gfx card has some advantages though, like much better performance, and in the case of nvidia, vdpau, CUDA and good openCL performance
[13:59] <zivester> I have a "meh" nvidia graphics card... I think it's better then the onboard video.. and all I want is a new stable system.  So wondering if I should keep the nvidia GPU or go for a board with the onboard graphics
[14:00] <Mion> zivester: what card?
[14:00] <Gentoo64> nvidia should be better
[14:00] <Mion> if it's 9xxx or newer, imo it is worth it
[14:00] <zivester> geforce GT220
[14:01] <Mion> you lose kms, but you gain vdpau
[14:01] <Gentoo64> why would you want onboard over a gt220
[14:01] <Mion> (and cuda)
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> should be finw
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> I have an onboard GeForce 6150 Gentoo64 ;)
[14:01] <zivester> i have a very unstable system right now.. im assuming its my old cpu/mobo.. .but if it happens to be the gpu I would be SOL
[14:01] <Gentoo64> anythings better tahn onboard
[14:01] <Calinou> fix yer audio control
[14:02] <Gentoo64> zivester: nouveau is more stable than nvidia drivers
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> don't assume onboard video is always intel based
[14:02] <Mion> Gentoo64: not really
[14:02] <Gentoo64> Mion: its much moire stable
[14:02] <Mion> Gentoo64: and with nouveau you lose all the advantages of having a nvidia card in the first place
[14:02] <Gentoo64> yeah
[14:02] <[4lpr4zol4m]> hi
[14:02] <[4lpr4zol4m]> im 21 female
[14:02] <Gentoo64> but its still better than onboard
[14:02] <Verruga> hi [4lpr4zol4m]
[14:02] <Gentoo64> mostly
[14:03] <[4lpr4zol4m]> anybody want to chat
[14:03] <zivester> ok so I'm thinking of this board with a 2500k : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157265  should be good to go paired with my Gt220?
[14:03] <ikonia> Gentoo64: you are talking nonsense again
[14:03] <Mion> nouveau is much less stable than nvidia on many newer cards too
[14:03] <ikonia> [4lpr4zol4m]: try #ubuntu-offtopic for "chat"
[14:03] <[4lpr4zol4m]> and im new to ubuntoo
[14:03] <Mion> zivester: if you can wait, wait untill early next year for the new chipsets and ivy bridge
[14:03] <Verruga> I like to have sex with cows
[14:03] <[4lpr4zol4m]> how can i install this program
[14:03] <ikonia> Verruga: please stop such silly comments
[14:03] <zivester> I can't wait, but thanks for the tip
[14:04] <Mion> zivester: 20% less power usage, 20% better performance, and chipset with much better features
[14:04] <ikonia> Verruga: this channel is for ubuntu support discussion only. Please keep to that
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: which program?
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> i want to install macromedia flash and dreamweaver
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> im webdeveloper
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> !wine | [4lpr4zol4m]
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> just started using ubuntu
[14:04] <ikonia> [4lpr4zol4m]: you're in for dissapointment
[14:04] <Mion> zivester: eg a full set of 6gbs sata ports and more than just 2 usb3 ports
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> why
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: there are native web development tools like bluefish
[14:04] <ikonia> [4lpr4zol4m]: dream weaver does not have a native port for Linux
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> wghat is wine
[14:04] <[4lpr4zol4m]> whats bluefish
[14:04] <Mion> [4lpr4zol4m]: python and html5 :)
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: read what ubottu said
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> !info bluefish
[14:05] <[4lpr4zol4m]> i dont read bots
[14:05] <ikonia> [4lpr4zol4m]: why is an abstratction layer which will allow you to use windows applications (to some extent) in Linux
[14:05] <Verruga> I don't know why you all have to act like this is some public housing project full of negroids!
[14:05] <[4lpr4zol4m]> they dumb
[14:05] <Verruga> god
[14:05] <ikonia> [4lpr4zol4m]: if you don't read bots, there is very little discussing anything more
[14:05] <Gentoo64> blatant  troll
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu
[14:05] <Verruga> I got yelled out after saying one thing
[14:05] <ikonia> Verruga: get with the topic - or leave. You're choice.
[14:05] <UABC-LNI> can somebody poop in my mouth?
[14:05] <asdjaputra> Your, isn't it?
[14:05] <UABC-LNI> please?
[14:05] <ikonia> asdjaputra: yes
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: i just copied and pasted it, same words, just me pasting it
[14:06] <[4lpr4zol4m]> lame
[14:06] <[4lpr4zol4m]> tell me how to do it instead of pasting random google shit
[14:06] <[4lpr4zol4m]> i can do tht on my own
[14:06] <Pessimist> Stop trolling or ignoring what we say
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> [4lpr4zol4m]: there is an appdb, it tells you how and if the apps will work
[14:07] <Verruga> is there a way to patch dreamweaver for ubuntu?
[14:07] <ikonia> Verruga: no

[14:19] <ActionParsnip> cwesterfield: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[14:19] <tony_2> Hi - im a newb with ubuntu - just installed 11.10. I have a question - How do you easily change between different open windows without use of a keyboard when there is no taskbar?
[14:19] <CimarronTij> where is a good place to contract programmers that can do this?
[14:19] <luca65> hi
[14:19] <CimarronTij> these are special vibrators and suction/penetration devices
[14:19] <CimarronTij> that plug in via usb
[14:20] <ikonia> CimarronTij: recruitment agencies, or similar projects, use the web.
[14:20] <cwesterfield> ActionParsnip, yes it booted perfect 4 or 5 times on a dell desktop
[14:20] <CimarronTij> and partners can sexually stimulate each other across the world
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> tony_2: you can enable a plugin in ccsm and use the bottom right corner to show all windows like in Mac
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> cwesterfield: what GPU does the system use?

[14:24] <pangolin> Gorilla_No_Baka: Please mind your language.
[14:24] <Gorilla_No_Baka> cippolino you're slow..
[14:25] <Gorilla_No_Baka> that was some time ago
[14:25] <pangolin> Gorilla_No_Baka: doesn't change the fact that you need to keep it clean
[14:25] <Gorilla_No_Baka> pangolinetti..got it caro mio :)
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[14:26] <Gorilla_No_Baka> ActionParsnip:  YES  i did!
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: if your CPU is 64bit, it will work with the 64bit ISO
[14:26] <Gorilla_No_Baka> verified the burn as well
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: are you using a CD or USB?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: did you burn as slowly as possible?
[14:26] <Gorilla_No_Baka> oh ActionParsnip  .. of course that's why i downloaded that image..
[14:27] <Gorilla_No_Baka> i tired every trick in the friggin book
[14:27] <Gorilla_No_Baka> tried
[14:27] <Varazir> yeats: thanks
[14:27] <Gorilla_No_Baka> i am running out of ideas..
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: could use a wired connection and use minimal ISO
[14:27] <cwesterfield> is there a boot arg for disabling automounts?
[14:27] <Gorilla_No_Baka>  the 32 bits images seem to be allright however out of 8 GB ram only 1.27 are cecognized
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: you can use the PAE kernel and access up to 64Gb in 32bit, its not very sleek but can exist
[14:28] <Gorilla_No_Baka> i know.. :( i was hoping to try to new image..
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Gorilla_No_Baka: try the minimal ISO, it installs using the repos online
[14:29] <Gorilla_No_Baka> i can't remember.. does the minimal image comes with some kind of parted/gparted included?
[14:30] <yeats> Gorilla_No_Baka: it uses partman, which comes with the debian installer
[14:30] <Gorilla_No_Baka> nice one..

[14:37] <yeats> arooni-mobile: have you backed up?
[14:37] <_jfb> been using "Back In Time" for backups, will Deja Dup recognize my old backup, or will I need to start fresh?

[14:40] <Glowball> I have my network configured with my router and a repeater. How can I force my laptop to always connect to the router and never to the repeater instead of switching (which makes me disconnect)

[14:43] <yeats> wow - what's with the trolls today?
[14:43] <quidnunc> crimscx: Do they need to be unused?
[14:43] <arooni-mobile> is there an alterative to jungledisk?  i.e. a client that will auto upload nighly changed directories to amazon aws?  id like to use carbonite etc but they dont work on linux.  i have to pay $24/year + AWS storage with jungledisk
[14:43] <crimscx> yes unused new diapers

[14:44] <Pessimist> !offtopic | crimscx
[14:44] <arooni-mobile> it doesnt have to upload to aws ; just an online system
[14:44] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: Doubtful, my X was working fine before upgrade
[14:44] <HelloWorld321> I fuond that Ocelot "broke" my synergy.  I let it over-write my session scripts, and now I'm following http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/autostart.html to get it going again, but gdm doesn't see it.
[14:45] <orated> I'm not able to find cpu fan rpm with the help of acpi, acpitools, sensors-detect.. How can I find processor fan rpm?
[14:45] <BluesKaj> quidnunc, so was mine , but I still needed nomodest after upgrading , but do as you wish
[14:45] <jrib> HelloWorld321: you know lightdm, not gdm is default now?
[14:45] <HelloWorld321> n00b Q: how do I know if I'm running xdm, kdm or gmd?
[14:45] <HelloWorld321> k
[14:45] <BluesKaj> err nomodeset
[14:45] <HelloWorld321> no, I did not
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> HelloWorld321: ps -ef | grep dm
[14:45] <orated> I get message like - could not read directory /proc/acpi/processor/ -   Make sure your kernel has ACPI processor support enabled.
[14:46] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: What graphics card do you have?
[14:46] <HelloWorld321> would you recommend that I chang my setup to run gdm?    *or* How do I change lightdm to use synergy?
[14:46] <yeats> HelloWorld321: have you used/do you use quicksynergy?
[14:47] <BluesKaj> quidnunc, I was about to ask you the same question , mine's a nvidia 8400gs , what's yours?
[14:47] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: Intel HD3000
[14:47] <quidnunc> integrated
[14:48] <ouyes> hi I have to ask this question again, is there a way to find out if an host with a ip connected to the same switch as my pc is active?
[14:48] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: I do not have the symptoms described in that post
[14:48] <ouyes> the ping ip command print out nothing
[14:48] <HelloWorld321> yes, I like QuickSynergy.  But it doesn't seem to handle auto-start
[14:48] <yeats> HelloWorld321: ah - I see
[14:48] <BluesKaj> quidnunc, ok then describe your symptoms in more detail , maybe someone can help
[14:48] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: I have the normal startup text output in vtty 7 but no GUI
[14:49] <yeats> ouyes: ping should print *something*, even if it's an error
[14:49] <ouyes> yeats, nope man I ping an ip, it print nothing but just wait
[14:50] <yeats> ouyes: when you do Ctrl-C to stop ping, it should give you a report
[14:50] <BluesKaj> so quidnunc at the prompt , what happens with , sudo service gdm start
[14:50] <ouyes> yeats, [1]+  Stopped                 ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:50] <mc_teo> hey
[14:50] <yeats> ouyes: looks like you did Ctrl-Z
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> ouyes: could use nmap to find all hosts on the LAN
[14:51] <yeats> ouyes: do 'fg' then Ctrl-C
[14:51] <ouyes> yeats, 3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2015ms
[14:51] <mc_teo> I am in a live usb environment atm, since i have graphics drivers problems on main install
[14:51] <yeats> ouyes: so you can't reach the machine
[14:51] <mc_teo> how can i either fix packages from here
[14:51] <ouyes> yeats, what is the difference between ctrl-z and ctrl-c?
[14:52] <mc_teo> or make it boot to the default graphical interface, and then proceed to fix it?
[14:52] <mc_teo> ouyes, one is kill, the other suspend
[14:52] <ouyes> yeats, 7 packets transmitted, 0 received, +6 errors, 100% packet loss, time 6031ms
[14:52] <ouyes> , pipe 3 this is the result of ping 101
[14:53] <yeats> ouyes: Ctrl-Z stops a job and lets you background it 'bg' or foreground it 'fg' as you need it; Ctrl-C stops whatever's currently running on the command line
[14:53]  * yeats realizes that is not the full story
[14:53] <ouyes> yeats, mc_teo is is possible that the host I am trying to reach refuse the ping package?
[14:53] <yeats> ouyes: no - it would tell you that
[14:54] <mc_teo> ouyes, yeah? a lot of servers do that
[14:54] <edbian> ouyes: yes, many routers along the way block ping
[14:54] <edbian> yeats: yes it is possible
[14:54] <yeats> ouyes: wait - maybe not -
[14:54] <yeats> edbian: yeah - I thought about what I said
[14:54] <yeats> ;-)
[14:54] <ouyes> edbian, then how can I determine if one ip is occupied
[14:54] <edbian> ouyes: Over the internet, there is no good way
[14:54] <ouyes> edbian, I have 3 pcs connected to the same switch
[14:55] <quidnunc> BluesKaj: That works
[14:55] <yeats> ouyes: your router/switch will know - otherwise try nmap on your network as ActionParsnip suggested
[14:55] <edbian> ouyes: What are you trying to do exactly? (if this isn't over the internet nothing will block ping and ping is a reliable means)
[14:55] <Sidewinder1> The "Blue", does it again!
[14:55] <ouyes> yeats, what is nmap?
[14:56] <ouyes> yeats, No manual entry for nmap
[14:56] <yeats> ouyes: you may have to install it
[14:56] <jMCg> aptitude show nmap
[14:56] <yeats> !info nmap
[14:57] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, There is a GUI for nmap, if you're interested; I believe it's called 'zenmap'.
[14:57] <valdergallo> hi, sometimes when i touch on my touchpad raise action of my right click ... anybody can help me ?

[15:03] <BluesKaj> gregoire, yeah , some traceroute experience here
[15:03] <sywisy> What does it mean when people say ubuntu is debian-based?
[15:04] <gregoire> BluesKaj, Coool. I am programming a traceroute like
[15:04] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, it works
[15:04] <yeats> !debian | sywisy
[15:04] <jrib> sywisy: ubuntu is built on top of debian
[15:04] <gregoire> BluesKaj, and I have some troubles sometimes
[15:04] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, I love it when a plan comes together!
[15:04] <mc_teo> I am in a live usb environment atm, since i have graphics drivers problems on main install
[15:04] <mc_teo> how can i either fix packages from here
[15:05] <mc_teo> or make it boot to the default graphical interface, and then proceed to fix it?
[15:05] <snark> I'd switch to Debian if it installed and configured X by default.   I don't wanna have to mess with configuring al that lol
[15:05] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, 4000/tcp open  remoteanything here is one of my own when run nmap to my ip
[15:05] <jrib> snark: debian does do that..
[15:05] <yeats> snark: it does that
[15:05] <BluesKaj> gregoire, sorry i don't understand , are youasking about how to use traceroute ?
[15:05] <snark> Really?  The installation guide I read said you had to do it yourself and it wouldn't be covered in the guide
[15:05] <gregoire> BluesKaj, No
[15:06] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, remoteanything what does it mean? I am been hacked by someone?
[15:06] <yeats> snark: you should install it in a VM
[15:06] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, Just be careful what servers to which you direct it, as certain configurations can be rather 'intrusive'. :-)
[15:06] <HelloWorld321> The good news is that my synergy now allows me to login to my ubuntu box using the remote keyboard.  But LightDM gets stuck after that.  Prolly cuz I've been messing with login scripts.  How do I get into it to fix those login scripts?  will ssh work?  is ssh the only way?  Is there a "safe mode"?
[15:06] <gregoire> BluesKaj, In fact I am coding a new traceroute (just for fun)
[15:06] <snark> yeats That's what I was thinking man.  Whats a good one for Linux?
[15:06] <yeats> snark: VirtualBox
[15:06] <BluesKaj> gregoire, no idea about coding , i just use it

[15:07] <gregoire> BluesKaj, and the main issue I have is that sometimes the servers on the path doesn't respond an ICMP ttl exceeded
[15:07] <WaltherFI> no wait, ubuntu - 7 actually
[15:07] <gregoire> BluesKaj, ok np
[15:07] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, I'm not familiar with "remoteanything", perhaps BluesKaj would like to chime in..
[15:07] <gregoire> BluesKaj, well my problem has nothing to do with code I think...
[15:09] <BluesKaj> Sidewinder1, ouyes , nmap isn't one of my strong-suits , but I've never seen that output before with nmap
[15:09] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, As an aside, if you're running ubuntu, there is very little worry about "being hacked", you may wish to look at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812

[15:20] <HelloWorld321> What's a good SSH client for Win7?  (I messed up my LightDM configuration)
[15:20] <seemawn> I have met all dependencies described at brother homepage, set up the proper driver, but xsane won't find it
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> seemawn: brother make drivers for Linux
[15:20] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, you did it?
[15:20] <seemawn> ActionParsnip: yes I know. Already installed, but no scanner found.
[15:20] <seemawn> printer is working well.
[15:20] <BluesKaj> jon5000, type pulseaudio in the terminal , it will shao the daemon if it's installed
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> seemawn: tried rebooted since installing the driver?
[15:20] <BluesKaj> show
[15:20] <seemawn> yes. Twice.
[15:21] <seemawn> dmesg says nothing unusal, and sane-scan-whatever detects something
[15:21] <bbbbbbbb>  how do i mount the card in my usb card reader?
[15:21] <seemawn> root@ncc1701:/home/seemawn# sane-find-scanner

[15:22] <ActionParsnip> seemawn: http://www.panticz.de/Install-Brother-MFC-7320-on-Ubuntu   may help
[15:22] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, Looks like the only ports that are open are 554 (rtsp?) and 7070 (realserver?). That's probably a good thing... It tried to guess your OS, 2.6.18 (92%), probably wrong..
[15:22] <jon5000> ActionParsnip, thank you.  please read my question carefully.  my problem is that the volume control is too disintegrated.
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> seemawn: seems you need to add to /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules
[15:22] <mar> Hello. I'm using ubuntu 11.10 with nvidia graphics card. I'm trying to run opengl app that uses doublebuffer and it fails, fall backs to singlebuffer mode and shows partially drawn frames. How do I avoid that?
[15:22] <mar> i'm using proprietary nvidia drivers

[15:23] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, how do you have my IP?
[15:23] <TheEvilPhoenix> ouyes:  your IP is visible here.
[15:23] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, yes it is wrong
[15:24] <TheEvilPhoenix> at least right now
[15:24] <lyrae> older version of ubuntu had a keyboard shortcuts app. what was it called?
[15:24] <ouyes> TheEvilPhoenix, where?
[15:24] <TheEvilPhoenix> * [ouyes] (~ouyes@<IP_ADDRESS>): ouyes
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> ouyes: my client has you at <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:24] <TheEvilPhoenix> your /whois
[15:24] <ekakela> What's the easiest way to change keyboard layout? (not using x or any other graphical enviroment)
[15:24] <ouyes> how to hide the ip?
[15:25] <TheEvilPhoenix> !cloak > ouyes
[15:25] <srcds> what the hell is wrong with ubuntu 11.10? My keyboard layout is messed up, there is no restart option anywhere and doing sudo restart shuts the computer down. Someone help me please
[15:25] <jrib> ekakela: in X?
[15:25] <u19809> HI all, I need to install a 386 package on my 64 bit ubuntu.  I noticed that there are foo:386 packages installed already ... how can I add ?
[15:25] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, "how do you have my IP?" Such questions will be answered in due time, Grasshopper. :-)
[15:26] <bbbbbbbb> how do i mount my cf card in my cardreader? it shows up in dmesg as "[13727.716187] sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] 125184 512-byte logical blocks: (64.0 MB/61.1 MiB)" but isnt automounted
[15:26] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, ok how to hide ip, here I am using xchat
[15:26] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, See your PM about Cloak.
[15:27] <dr_willis> bbbbbbbb: see what sudo fdisk -l   shows it at. then use the mount command
[15:27] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, he said about name
[15:27] <dr_willis> !mount | bbbbbbbb
[15:27] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, I don't really worry about it; if you'll notice, I'm not cloaked.
[15:27] <snark> How come tab completion doesn't work if you have an asterisk somewhere in the filepath?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> ouyes: it does very little, i wouldn't sweat it
[15:28] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, I use X-Chat, as well.
[15:28] <snark> Real men use telnet =P
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> haha old skool
[15:29] <dr_willis> using a * in a oart is a little odd.
[15:29] <ouyes> snark, telnet the channel?
[15:29] <lyrae> the protocol
[15:29] <snark> No, where you said you use xchat.  I was just being silly
[15:29] <lyrae> I can't believe gnome butchered themes in gnome3
[15:29] <dr_willis> he shel expands wildcards.  * is just another caracter
[15:29] <seemawn> ok, it still won't work.
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> lyrae: itll get better with time
[15:30] <lyrae> i hope
[15:30] <seemawn> I mean, I did run the script as describedd
[15:30] <seemawn> -d
[15:30] <seemawn> (this is not the first time I install the drivers)
[15:30] <dr_willis> given how oior gnome2 theming was....
[15:30] <dr_willis> poor
[15:30] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, Interesting, according to my info. your last boot was "Wed. Oct 12, 2011 at 11:19:14.   :-)
[15:30] <zipper> I am on 10.04 , how do i start dist upgrade? System -> update manager does not give me the option to upgrade, claims all packages are up to date
[15:30] <Ibis> ActionParsnip: I can't seem to get that tp appear brighter in color though. (The unity color scheme).
[15:31] <Ir0nman> how do i remove the unity launcher and add this launcher in the video?
[15:31] <Ir0nman> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mVdIlIPewY&feature=player_embedded
[15:31] <ouyes> Sidewinder1, I am now worried
[15:31] <Lubomir> don't you have a bot here, spamming a lottery url all 30 seconds and saying "BUY A MAC"?
[15:31] <Sidewinder1> ouyes, Not to worry; we're all good guys/gals, here.. :D
[15:31] <Lubomir> ;)
[15:32] <lyrae> ActionParsnip, how does on change window borders style? I can change icons and the GTK theme via teak tool..but borders just won't change
[15:32] <dr_willis> biggest danger to a linux bix us the yser doing somthing sillyt

[15:33] <lyrae> dr_willis, with spelling like that, i fear for you :3
[15:33] <Ibis> dr_willis: Say what? o_O
[15:33] <lyrae> ActionParsnip, oh. what do you use?
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Ir0nman: its currently building
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> lyrae: kde and lxde
[15:33] <dr_willis> android phone and a buggy irc client
[15:33] <Ibis> lyrae: I know right!? Shoot.
[15:33] <Ibis> xD
[15:33] <Lubomir> ^5 lyrae
[15:33] <lyrae> hehe
[15:33] <dr_willis> i cant see what i type half rhe time
[15:33] <Ir0nman> i really like the launcher on the bottom
[15:33] <Ir0nman> if i could use the unity launcher on the bottom it would be great
[15:33] <jrib> dr_willis: how convenient...
[15:34] <Ir0nman> but it looks like that optionw as removed?
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Ir0nman: its probably docky or avant window navigator
[15:34] <dr_willis> yep
[15:34] <Lubomir> avant window manager looks neat
[15:34] <seemawn> isn't there a german channel anymore?

[15:35] <MrClaw> Hey. :) How to change default applications (link handlers, defualt terminal emulator...) in the most recent release?
[15:35] <Soxit> hey
[15:35] <Soxit> how can i use an older kernel?
[15:35] <jrib> !defaultapp | MrClaw
[15:35] <lyrae> Soxit, you should have the option in GRUB
[15:35] <abhijain> hello
[15:36] <Soxit> erm
[15:36] <Soxit> lyrae: GRUB i have only 2 entires
[15:36] <Scrambler> I can't figure out how to add MPLAYER as the default video player for my avi/mpg/etc files.  I used to go into FILE, PROPERTIES, and add a custom command, but that is gone in 11.10.
[15:36] <MrClaw> jrib: What about default terminal emulator? (Which is also the one started when you press CTRL+ALT+T)
[15:36] <Soxit> ive only ever had one kernel on this install
[15:37] <Soxit> how can i install the latest version in kernel2 ?

Its happening from past 3 days
[15:37] <van7hu> hi
[15:38] <auronandace> Soxit: you do realise that kernel 3 is just kernel 2.6.40 with a different name
[15:38] <Soxit> well, ubuntu 11.10 has broken something
[15:38] <Soxit> and i want to check if its the kernel
[15:38] <Soxit> before i go back to 11.04
[15:38] <Soxit> mayb ill try 2.6.38
[15:38] <Soxit> how can i do this
[15:39] <MakoMick> Has anyhone had printer problems after upgrading?
[15:39] <jrib> MrClaw: don't know and those instructions I gave don't seem to work in 11.10 so that's a good question Scrambler
[15:39] <MrClaw> jrib: Thanks. :)
[15:39] <abhijain> abhijain: strange no one replied on my query
[15:40] <Lubomir> on ubuntu 11.10, how can i add xscreensaver to autostart on Gnome?
[15:40]  * abhijain not happy with ubuntu 10.10
[15:40] <abhijain> I am on ubuntu 10.10 and when I am accessing internet with any browser again anda agan it giving errror "kill page or wait" all browsers sucking desparately including chromium,chrome, ff, seamonkey,doodle whats the problem can any one tell me how to resolve it.  Latest version is not 10.10
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> Lubomir: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/10/enable-screensavers-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/
[15:40] <Scrambler> I can't figure out how to add MPLAYER as the default video player for my avi/mpg/etc files.  I used to go into FILE, PROPERTIES, and add a custom command, but that is gone in 11.10.
[15:40] <Lubomir> thankyou ActionParsnip :D
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> yagoo: maverick is equally as supported as Oneiric
[15:41] <auronandace> yagoo: please don't insult people
[15:41] <dabukalam> manutd.com gives me error code 6-1 when trying to access from ubuntu.
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> abhijain: run one of the browsers from terminal, what is output when it crashes?
[15:43] <cutiyar> my ubuntu will freeze after nearly ten minutes nothing work
[15:44] <Soxit> can i install this kernel on ubuntu 11.10 ?                2.6.38-12.51       from natty ?
[15:44] <bbbbbbbb> my card reader shows up in dmesg as "[14721.527842] scsi 13:0:0:0: Direct-Access     6-in-1   CF/MD            0202 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS" but not in fdisk
[15:44] <Scrambler> Does anyone know how to add MPLAYER to the list of OPEN WITH so that I can click on a video and have MPLAYER play it by default?
[15:44] <bbbbbbbb> how do i mount the card?
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> Soxit: I don't recommend it. I doubt its supported either
[15:44] <jordan4ibanez_> hello
[15:44] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, bs
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> !default | Scrambler
[15:44] <wh1zz0> Scrambler: Go to your system preferences
[15:44] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, your card is not a scsi
[15:45] <Soxit> ActionParsnip: whats your reason for not recommending?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> mplayer is the daddy
[15:45] <Scrambler> MPLAYER isn't in that list, and there is no way to add a command like there used to be.
[15:45] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, dmesg |grep -i scsi
[15:45] <jordan4ibanez_> hey people i have a question
[15:45] <wh1zz0> Scrambler: Go to your system preferences and look for "Preferred Applications" icon, click and follow the prompts
[15:45] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, it's probably using the scsi driver.. see what the output of the command i gave u
[15:45] <Scrambler> Can't add mplayer there either.
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> Soxit: there are features in the new kernel which will no doubt be needed, you can try it and test as you can simply remove the kernel as easily as it is to install
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> Scrambler: do you use gnome desktop?
[15:46] <Soxit> how do i do it ActionParsnip? i thought there was .debs
[15:46] <Scrambler> 11.10, Unity?
[15:46] <Soxit> but i cant see one this link https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/
[15:46] <bbbbbbbb> yagoo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/717033/
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> Scrambler: then its Gnome, unity is just a shell
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> Scrambler: install gnome-mplayer   and use thatas the player
[15:46] <Travis-42> I want to install memcached, but only run it from the command line on demand. How do I disable all of the autostart stuff for memcached?
[15:47] <jordan4ibanez_> when im partitioning and i split a hard disk into 2 equal "/" partitions..will it access the disk 2 times like raid? or if i use the same partition on 2 harddisks will it work like raid?
[15:47] <Scrambler> I don't like gnome-mplayer, I want to use the old fashioned mplayer
[15:47] <cutiyar> my ubuntu will freeze after nearly ten minutes nothing work
[15:47] <Scrambler> I used to be able to add it as a command line
[15:47] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, from that output the device is sdd (/dev/sdd)
[15:47] <cutiyar> my ubuntu will freeze after nearly ten minutes nothing work,whats wrong?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> Scrambler: I see, try defining the command manually rather than using the menu options
[15:47] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, it says "sdd" literally
[15:47] <Scrambler> you can't
[15:48] <bbbbbbbb> yagoo: i thought so
[15:48] <Scrambler> there isn't an option to add a custom command.
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> hmmm
[15:48] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, another factor is --> fdisk -l .. and u can see the devicename here too
[15:49] <anon__> hey guys, do u know any webmaster irc/channels?
[15:49] <yagoo> anon__, w3c.org ?
[15:49] <yagoo> lol
[15:49] <anon__> >_>
[15:50] <bbbbbbbb> yagoo: alright, done. thanks
[15:50] <aj00200> I can check mail using the mail command, but how can I have other computers send mail to that mail program on this computer (This only needs to work within my own network).
[15:50] <Lubomir> On 11.10 how can I set it to store the last desktop session for next session?
[15:50] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, btw it auto-mounts under gnome once u have a filesystem on /dev/sdd# ?
[15:51] <Soxit> someone tell me where .deb builds of kernels can be found?
[15:51] <Soxit> can i use this?  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[15:51] <yagoo> bbbbbbbb, tanks.
[15:52] <yagoo> Soxit, how do u know the kernel is the problem? you getting OOPS with the current?
[15:52] <Scrambler> I don't like it, but I 'fixed' it by copying the mplayer binary over to gnome-mplayer, then selecting gnome-mplayer as the open with application.  It works, but a crappy way to do it.  I hope Ubuntu doesn't continue down this path of forcing things on its users like MS does.
[15:52] <xannax> Hello, if I want to make a fresh install but still keep my settings intact, is backuping /home/$user sufficient?
[15:52] <yagoo> Scrambler, that's stupid. DON'T OVERWRITE BINARIES TO FIX THINGS.
[15:52] <Soxit> yagoo:  i dont know but its do to with ATI drivers 11.4
[15:52] <Soxit> wont install
[15:52] <Soxit> but they installed on 11.04 ubuntu
[15:53] <Soxit> so its either the kernel, or something else, and nobody will help so i gotta test myself, and this is only thing i can try really
[15:53] <Scrambler> I agree yagoo, but can't figure out how to do it any other way.
[15:53]  * yagoo says overwriting binaries to fix things is worse than anything
[15:53] <Lubomir> yagoo has never listened to Lady Gaga
[15:53] <Scrambler> they took out the 'add custom command' to the OPEN WITH diaglog box.
[15:53]  * King_Ozzy overwrites yagoo
[15:53] <Lubomir> Lady Gaga actually is worse than anything!
[15:53] <Lubomir> :)
[15:53] <King_Ozzy> yes, that
[15:54] <anon__> ubuntu > lady gaga
[15:54] <Lubomir> the fan room here, right
[15:54] <cutiyar> my ubuntu will freeze after nearly ten minutes nothing work,whats wrong?
[15:54] <yagoo> Scrambler, u using unity or gnome-classic?
[15:54] <Scrambler> out of the box
[15:54] <Scrambler> so Unity?
[15:54] <Scrambler> the stupid bouncy bar thing on the left
[15:54] <Scrambler> in 2d though.
[15:54] <TheEvilPhoenix> Scrambler:  yes that's unity
[15:54] <yagoo> Scrambler, so install gnome-session-fallback (or gnome-fallback-session) and gnome-shell
[15:55] <Scrambler> but then what?  Use Gnome?
[15:55] <devish> i kept a wallpaper and then i removed it now on lock screen it shows up every time
[15:55] <Scrambler> I am trying to adapt and move the way that the Ubuntu developers want and go with Unity.
[15:55] <devish> how to remove it
[15:55] <Scrambler> I am trying to keep it all 'factory' hehehe
[15:56] <Soxit> yagoo: do i install all these packags?
[15:56] <Soxit> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v<IP_ADDRESS>-natty/
[15:56] <schme> hello #ubuntu. I burnt me a ubuntu CD and put in the laptop right now. It loads for some time and I get a nice looking background.. then nothing happens. What do I do to get to login or install or whatever?
[15:56] <yagoo> Soxit, why not fix ur video problem?
[15:57] <xannax> Where can I find a guy about backuping my system? I don't want to use an application for it, I want to choose what to keep and what to throw away
[15:57] <Lubomir> guide*
[15:57] <yagoo> schme, what is "loading" . Your newly install OS? did u try the recovery option?
[15:57] <Lubomir> right :)
[15:57] <auronandace> !backup | xannax
[15:57] <Scrambler> Just checked, my printer doesn't print anymore either.
[15:58] <Scrambler> stopping job because the scheduler could not execute
[15:58] <xannax> auronandace, thanks
[15:58] <auronandace> np
[15:58] <Soxit> yagoo: how exactly
[15:58] <schme> yagoo: there is nothing to recover. and nothing to install. I just put in the ubuntu CD and it loads ubuntu. after a while I get a nice looking background and a pointer to move around.
[15:58] <Soxit> its something that ubuntu 11.10 has broken
[15:58] <tucemiux_> anyone knows how to change a windows password from within ubuntu?
[15:58] <YeahRight> hi there i need some help..i've been upgrading to 11.10 and during the upgrade i experienced a samba error
[15:58] <TheEvilPhoenix> is there any easy way to burn an ISO to a CD or USB if we do not need it to be a bootable disk?
[15:58] <TheEvilPhoenix> maybe with dd or something?
[15:58] <Lubomir> if i run "outdated" hardware which hardly gets supported, terratec soundcard and typhoon webcam, i suppose i'll end up with some "Compile your own shit" site, right?
[15:59] <Lubomir> or is there a way for dumbos like me?
[15:59] <YeahRight> Could not install 'samba'
[15:59] <YeahRight> The upgrade will continue but the 'samba' package may not be in a working state. Please consider submitting a bug report about it.
[15:59] <YeahRight> package samba is not ready for configuration  cannot configure (current status `half-installed')
[15:59] <th__> Oct 23 14:32:18 KONE1-th kernel: [11964.034748] WARNING! power/level is deprecated; use power/control instead
[15:59] <YeahRight> after the error the upgrade continued
[15:59] <YeahRight> and it wanted to report this bug
[15:59] <TheEvilPhoenix> !language | First, lubomir
[15:59] <yagoo> schme, you sure u downloaded the right cd? because you should have an install option on boot
[15:59] <tucemiux_> TheEvilPhoenix, you wantto burn an ISO to CD?  That's easy!  I use brasero
[15:59] <aj00200> The_Phoenix: if you put it on a USB you can probably un-set the bootable bit with gparted (just a thought)
[15:59] <TheEvilPhoenix> Lubomir:  secondly, you may actually need to upgrade your hardware or indeed build your own stuff.
[15:59] <YeahRight> during the bug report procedure i pressed cancel..assuming it would cancel the reporting
[15:59] <schme> yagoo: Well I picked "Try ubuntu without installing" which is really what I want to do at this moment.
[15:59] <aj00200> err, TheEvilPhoenix ^
[15:59] <TheEvilPhoenix> tucemiux_:  no, to USB
[15:59] <Lubomir> LOL took me some to find out, the feces part? sorry for that
[16:00] <YeahRight> but it seems i cancelled the whole ugrade now and i get this:
[16:00] <TheEvilPhoenix> aj00200:  what would i use to write the image to the USB :P
[16:00] <TheEvilPhoenix> dd?
[16:00] <TheEvilPhoenix> ;P
[16:00] <YeahRight> Could not install the upgrades
[16:00] <YeahRight> The upgrade has aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a).
[16:00] <Crazed_> hi, does anyone know how to run a script when you log out graphically?
[16:00] <aj00200> TheEvilPhoenix: um, maybe the startup disk creator thing
[16:00] <Lubomir> and thanks TheEvilPhoenix tho
[16:00] <yagoo> schme, so why the f do you ask how to install it if you choose "Try" and you have the option "Install". Makes alot of sense doesn't it to reboot it and choose "Install" .. no?
[16:00] <schme> yagoo: I use this http://mirrors.se.eu.kernel.org/ubuntu-releases//oneiric/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[16:00] <YeahRight> thats not what i wanted...the upgrade went fine except for the samba thing
[16:00] <aj00200> I don't see why you want to write a bootable ISO to a CD/USB but then make it non-bootable.
[16:00] <xannax> !sbackup
[16:00] <YeahRight> i just wanted to cancel the reproting
[16:00] <YeahRight> so what i can do now?
[16:01] <cutiyar> my ubuntu will freeze after nearly ten minutes nothing work,whats wrong?
[16:01] <schme> yagoo: ok lemme rephrase. I pick try and it loads for a bit. then gives me a nice background and a pointer. What do I do to login or actually do anything at all other than move the pointer around?
[16:01] <TheEvilPhoenix> aj00200:  its not a bootable iso
[16:01] <TheEvilPhoenix> :/
[16:01] <Pessimist> I made my 11.10 usb with "Startup disk creator", but it doesn't boot
[16:01] <tucemiux_> TheEvilPhoenix, what  do you mean you want to "burn" an ISO to a USB and not make it bootable?  You mean you want to be able to access the files in an ISO?
[16:01] <TheEvilPhoenix> aj00200:  hence me asking
[16:01] <aj00200> TheEvilPhoenix: then Brasero
[16:01] <yagoo> schme, how old are you?
[16:01] <xannax> auronandace, all the resources provided link to programs; I want a description of the directories so I know what to *manually* backup. I need to backup, but most importantly, I need to learn
[16:01] <Pessimist> I made my 11.10 usb with "Startup disk creator", but it doesn't boot. It is fat32 file system, the process finished correctly (no errors reported)
[16:01] <TheEvilPhoenix> tucemiux_:  its not an ISO of a bootable CD - its the ISO for the installation medium for a Microsoft product that I need to install on a system that does not have internet access at this time.
[16:01] <yagoo> schme, "try" is for trying.. it's not the whole ubuntu experience.
[16:01] <zykotick9> TheEvilPhoenix, why not mount the ISO (see "/msg ubottu iso") then just copy the files over?  dd or cat MIGHT work also.
[16:01] <Lubomir> another thing- for Alien Arena not running (did it on previous release) i might visit alien arena's site for support, right ;)
[16:02] <tucemiux_> cutiyar, freezing is normally related to hardware failure, the first thing I would check is the fans - make sure your computer is not overheating
[16:02] <schme> yagoo: I am 31. I have no idea why it even matters. I wish to try ubuntu. But all I can do is watch a pretty background and move a pointer around.
[16:02] <xannax> that's why I want to know where files worth backing up might be located
[16:02]  * yagoo thinks schme is trolling
[16:02] <aj00200> TheEvilPhoenix: worse case you can burn to a CD and then dd to a USB (i'm not sure about the format of an ISO)
[16:02] <yagoo> schme, try it in vmware/virtualbox..
[16:02] <schme> yagoo: ... there is no trolling.
[16:02] <cutiyar> tucemiux_, overheating? its working two days till now
[16:02] <tucemiux_> TheEvilPhoenix, it doesnt matter what type of ISO it is - im trying to figure out what is it you want to do with the ISO ?
[16:03] <schme> yagoo: I have no OS on the laptop so that is not really an option. thanks anyway.
[16:03] <lucas-arg> Pessimist, install gparted, clear all the disk, create an fat32 partition make it booteable, after that use the usb disk creator... or open a terminal and type sudo dd if=/pathtoiso of=/pathtousb/sdb
[16:03] <yagoo> schme, what model is your laptopn?
[16:03] <schme> yagoo: What I have is pretty much this  https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-help/figures/unity-overview.png  but without all the icons and taskbar etc. just the background and a pointer.
[16:03] <yagoo> schme, is it old?
[16:03] <tucemiux_> cutiyar, the problem with physical parts is that they tend to age and with time they fail
[16:03] <Scrambler> Great, so its a kernel problem that is keeping from printing now?
[16:03] <YeahRight> if anyone could help me i would really appreciate it..
[16:04] <schme> yagoo: it is a compaq presario cq60. No it is not old. 2 years or so.
[16:04] <yagoo> schme, did u do an md5?
[16:04] <schme> on the iso, sure.
[16:04] <cutiyar> tucemiux_, if i turn off , will be fixed next timse?
[16:04] <auronandace> xannax: /etc/ has a lot of systemwide settings, your home directory (/home/username) contains your installed applications settings
[16:05] <yagoo> schme, dunno.. u tried a boot option?
[16:05] <Pessimist> lucas-arg, I did that. When I boot it stays at the screen where you can see the hardware
[16:05] <Lubomir> general question: how long does it take an average lame xp user to get used to ubuntu?
[16:05] <Pessimist> list
[16:05] <yagoo> schme, if no boot option helps.. why not try to install it.. since there's no OS anyways?
[16:05] <tucemiux_> cutiyar, you have to troubleshoot, it could be either hardware or ubuntu but you have to start somewhere, I would first check the fans, if it's a desktop I would open it up to see if an electric surge didnt damage the electronics, clean the machine with compressed to air to make sure there's no short in the machine
[16:05] <xannax> auronandace, thanks a lot
[16:05] <yagoo> schme, boot option is a special thing u pass to the bootline..
[16:06] <yagoo> schme, it's not important most of the time to know about.. but probably in ur case just for the cd boot 'try'..
[16:06] <Pessimist> lucas-arg, It stays at the screen where it shows you the hardware list + I choose my usb device on the boot screen
[16:06] <schme> yagoo: I am well aware what a boot option is. Do you have anyone you recommend?  and I might install it later if I get around to buying a harddrive.
[16:06] <cutiyar> tucemiux_, its laptop
[16:06] <tucemiux_> anyone knows how to check your hard drive for errors? It looks like my encrypted home directory has a lot of errors
[16:06] <Pessimist> lucas-arg, It stays at the screen where it shows you the hardware list + I choose my usb device on the boot screen + I did my Ubuntu installation before from the same usb, but it stopped working
[16:07] <tucemiux_> cutiyar, check the fans, have you done anything to your machine in the last two days? Upgraded software maybe?
[16:07] <theadmin> tucemiux_: fsck
[16:07] <Sidewinder1> schme, Out of curiosity, did you burn the CD at the slowest speed possible? If not, maybe the disk has errors.
[16:07] <yagoo> schme, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions  -- try acpi=off
[16:07] <theadmin> tucemiux_: Actually, wait, that's not that
[16:07] <tucemiux_> theadmin, but what's the command?  When I open up a browser my system hangs
[16:07] <sysRPL> hello
[16:07] <sysRPL> can i get some help please? i had some power loss problems last night and now my htpc wont boot properly. i get a grub menu, but when i select an option to boot to it sticks on a busybox console. i tried following the steps here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1561735 but when i typw "boot" it's still hung ...
[16:07] <schme> Sidewinder1: yup. speed 1. good thinking. I'll do the check for defects one.
[16:07] <theadmin> tucemiux_: sudo fsck /dev/sda1 or something like this
[16:07] <yagoo> schme, maybe try to install it?
[16:07] <ushills> #nickserv identify ushills stanley
[16:07] <theadmin> tucemiux_: Make sure the drive is unmounted, though
[16:08] <schme> yagoo: as I said I will consider installing it once I have a harddrive to install it on.
[16:08] <theadmin> ushills: Change your password
[16:08] <Lubomir> this channel is fun, great work OPs,  toodles (^^)v
[16:08] <tucemiux_> theadmin, that sounds painful
[16:08] <sysRPL> basically i believe grub can't the information it needs to boot correctly, and i don't know how to fix it
[16:08] <auronandace> ushills: you forgot /msg also you need to change your password (try doing that before you join a channel)
[16:09] <popsch> how come the skype icon doesn't show up in the panel in 11.10. Does anyone know how to debug this?
[16:09] <Sidewinder1> schme, Do you intend to dual boot? And if so, will you be shrinking any NTFS partitions?
[16:09] <sysRPL> any help would be appreciated
[16:09] <ushills> bugger again
[16:09] <schme> Sidewinder1: no I do not inted to dual boot. and I've never had an NTFS partition anywhere in my entire life, thank you very much :P
[16:09] <theadmin> popsch: There's some setting in dconf for this stuff
[16:09] <tucemiux_> sysRPL, I would just reinstall, most likely the power loss damaged your machine pretty good, just reimage and if it works then great, if not then your machine is fubar - get power protection because it can and it will happen again
[16:09] <theadmin> popsch: I can't recall what it is
[16:09] <popsch> theadmin, thanks. will look for it
[16:10]  * Sidewinder1 Bows to schme for never having an NTFS/fat32 partition!
[16:10] <Crazed_> hi, does anyone know how to run a script when you log out graphically?
[16:10] <schme> Sidewinder1: le cool. the check said errors found in one file. I'll reburn or something.
[16:10] <yagoo> Crazed_, ?
[16:11] <yagoo> Crazed_, do you want to run a script when you shutdown?
[16:11] <schme> Sidewinder1: well I have had fat32. I had a dual boot with windows / linux for a month back in 1994. :)
[16:11] <Crazed_> yagoo: i would prefer to run it when i log out since it is specific to the user, but i could do it on shutdown if i have to
[16:11] <theadmin> Crazed_: I know LXDM has post-logout scripts. I have no idea whether GDM/lightdm does, though.
[16:11] <Sidewinder1> schme, In case you haven't seen it, this is a really great link: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index
[16:11] <yagoo> schme, SURE. 1994 you dual booting Windows and Linux. SURE big guy.

[16:13] <dr_willis> someone learning perl. :-)
[16:13] <yagoo> (logically it says "light" intending to mean load fast times)
[16:13] <schme> Sidewinder1: a friend ran into some issues with her laptop (broken harddrive controller) and needs to actually use it so I figured I'd hook her up with some ubuntu liveCD for now.  Just it blew up in my face.
[16:14] <Crazed_> yagoo, theadmin: basically,i want to run kdestroy and delete a file from my home
[16:14] <Fred0> how can I install this OS through W7
[16:14] <schme> Sidewinder1: thanks for the checking though! gonna give it a new try here (:
[16:14] <Fred0> welll
[16:14] <yagoo> schme, probably there's more problems than that.. u should use some diagnostic tools-- like memtest from the boot menu
[16:14] <Sidewinder1> schme, Best of luck!
[16:14] <HelloWorld321> k.  I definitely messed up my login scripts for lightdm.  It loads super-slow, and I'm pretty sure I'm not actually in lightdm ... the menu bar looks like Nautilus (File, Edit, View,  Go, Bookmarks, Help)
[16:14] <auronandace> !wubi | Fred0
[16:14] <Fred0> so
[16:15] <Fred0> i know that
[16:15] <auronandace> Fred0: but i advise against wubi
[16:15] <HelloWorld321> I was trying to get synergy to auto-start
[16:15] <Fred0> i was trying to do as it was told to be done
[16:15] <schme> yagoo: no. only the harddrive controller that is broken. I have checked it thoroughly. thanks anyway :)
[16:15] <Xnewbie> help please,. I'am installing ubuntu 11.10 in my laptop but I am getting an error [Errno 5] Input/output error
[16:15] <Fred0> but surprise surprise
[16:15] <Xnewbie> This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment.
[16:15] <Fred0> everythig is falling apart
[16:15] <Fred0> i am desperate
[16:15] <yagoo> schme, it's possible that may be a reason why you're seeing a lockup..
[16:15] <Fred0> the main thing which makes me sick
[16:15] <Crazed_> yagoo: basically, i want to run kdestroy and delete a file from my home
[16:16] <HelloWorld321> I tried Wubi.  Wubi is fine until the update comes.  It's meant as a "free trial", but they don't support version updates (so Ocelot probably broke your Wubi, and that's probably why you're here)
[16:16] <Fred0> is partition
[16:16] <dr_willis> Fred0:  clarify the exact problem.
[16:16] <Fred0> i still have very iportant files
[16:16] <Fred0> in W7
[16:16] <HelloWorld321> I tried Wubi in Natty, and once Maverick came around I totally had to dump Wubi.
[16:16] <auronandace> Fred0: everything falling apart? yeah, thats specific and helps us to help you...
[16:16] <Fred0> well
[16:16] <mneptok> Fred0: don't use Wubi. either install Linux onto its own disk partitions or use something like VirtualBox OSE.
[16:16] <yagoo> Crazed_, delete a file on shutdown? lol.. how practical is that?
[16:16] <MonkeyDust> Fred0: you're flooding

[16:24] <Xnewbie> riaddenoe: what is u r issue?
[16:24] <devish> there was some application to save from battery drainage can anyone name it
[16:25] <Fred0> so the problem is the following: i am downloading an iso image from the off site, then i am using ultraiso to burn it on cdrw (as a substiture usbflash drive is used just in case), but here and there the same thing occurs: i am offered to manipulate with hdds ( i have 2 of them) and i am withdrawing from the installing process because some very important to me files are located on those hdds. How to manage those hdds partitions. thx in advance.
[16:25] <devish> the working temperature is too high in ubuntu
[16:25] <Neosano> Fred0 try to use gparted from livecd
[16:25] <devish> it ranges 50-60 C
[16:26] <devish> is it normal as i dont see in windows so much
[16:26] <auronandace> Fred0: resize partitions with gparted
[16:26] <k013> hi can anyone answer the question available at this link? -- https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+question/174737
[16:26] <devish> i guess its a driver problem
[16:26] <dr_willis> Fred0:  backup anything important first. and inormally use gparted to setup my partions how i like befor i install
[16:26] <Neosano> devish it's not! maybe you should try cpufreq-set -g powersave? this will decrease performance but will save some battery life
[16:26] <auronandace> !partitions | Fred0
[16:27] <Neosano> devish maybe it is working in performance mode instead of on-demand?
[16:27] <Neosano> devish.. so anyway.. try cpufreq!
[16:27] <Crazed_> yagoo, mneptok: thanks for the help, i'll try that
[16:27] <mneptok> Fred0: i would not use Wubi, personally. make free space on those disks to allow a Linux installation (min 10GB). use whatever Windows tool you feel comfortable with to resize partitions preserving data. the unused space in an existing Windows partition can then be made into unallocated free space for Linux to partition and install onto.
[16:27] <MonkeyDust> Fred0: rule one: backup backup backup
[16:28] <MonkeyDust> (in that order)
[16:28] <devish> Neosano: where to switch modes
[16:28] <dr_willis> and backup the backups
[16:28] <yagoo> Fred0, the gparted live cd-- can checkdisk your filesystem (fat32 or ntfs) before resizing it-- you should make a backup beforehand
[16:28]  * yagoo has been using gparted live cd for like the last 3 years
[16:28] <Neosano> devish not sure about the gui way, but in terminal 'cpufreq-set -g powersave' should switch you to the powersave mode
[16:29] <Fred0> well i have 2 hdds one is half occupied and another is suddivided in 2 parts: those parts are logical complements one is free of any files (formatting was used) and another is the one where w7 files are located
[16:29] <Neosano> devish but search for the gui way :) gonna be easier
[16:29] <yagoo> Fred0, u still have to backup.. you have 50% chance u may have to type commands to fix the w7 or whatever windows bootloader..
[16:29] <dr_willis> Fred0:  you can delete and split up the empty logical then
[16:30] <tucemiux_> anyone upgraded yet? are there any changes that Im missing out and should upgrade?
[16:30] <k013> hi can anyone answer the question available at this link? -- https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+question/174737
[16:30] <dr_willis> k013: at least summarize the issue
[16:30] <HelloWorld321> for a backup, you can use Ubuntu1, SpiderOak, or some other free co-location ("cloud") service.
[16:30] <k013> one sec dr_willis
[16:30] <devish> Neosano: did that but don't think anything gonna happen. how could i check for any conflicting/needed driver
[16:31] <Fred0> is it possible that i can use terminal such as teamviewer in windows to install ubuntu
[16:31] <k013> @dr_willis - 1. the brightness setting
[16:31] <k013> available under - system settings - screen
[16:31] <yagoo> HelloWorld321, clouds are for noobs.. any corporation knows this.. nothing of free-online backup service is secured from online spies
[16:31] <k013> the keeps getting set to the maximum level
[16:31] <m_fulder> hello could someone please help me with my network configuration on ubuntu 11.10 :( I really can't get it working now..I have 2 network cars in my computer and both are connected to the internet. I would like to get internet from only one of thoes cards ..though I would also want to have a static LAN ip. So I've made a static IP configuration for eth0 like: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/change-ubuntu-system-from-dhcp-to-a-static-ip-ad
[16:31] <k013> everytime i boot into ubuntu i reset it to an acceptable lower level, this did not happen in 11.04
[16:31] <FloodBot1> k013: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:31] <HelloWorld321> dr_willis: I followed the link, it sounds like a fubar gui.  stuff like "some of the buttons in the sidebar have no images, the image is of a white window."
[16:31] <k013> 2. the volume setting
[16:31] <k013> available under the speaker icon on the top right hand corner of the desktop
[16:32] <auronandace> Fred0: why do you want to do it from windows, that is really limiting your options
[16:32] <Neosano> devish I don't think there's any problem with the drivers. there's must be a power manager or some kind of thing. look for it :)
[16:32]  * yagoo refuses to help people who come in and paste all their questions in many lines like K013 !!!!!!!
[16:32] <devish> Neosano: k :)

[16:33] <soccermitchy> How do I partition a USB drive using Disk Utility on Ubuntu 10.10
[16:33] <soccermitchy> ?
[16:33] <k013> @helloworld321 - that's the problem, the detailed info inside is different from the summary
[16:33] <firedream> “MLT's SDL module not found”，What’s mean？
[16:33] <Neosano> soccermitchy, same way you partition hdd
[16:33] <Broseph> I want to setup a raid 10 on 5 drives in ubuntu 11.10. As far as I can tell, this can't be done at the install screen and my only other options are: booting to a shell and preparing the raid beforehand, or doing it after having installed the system. Have I got the right idea?
[16:34] <soccermitchy> Which is?
[16:34] <soccermitchy> Through the Live USB for Ubuntu?
[16:34] <firedream> It‘s kdenlive
[16:35] <Neosano> soccermitchy just slam your usb stick into the usb port and you're ready to partition it
[16:35] <yagoo> Broseph, i thought raid10 is 4 drives
[16:35] <soccermitchy> ...
[16:35] <Neosano> soccermitchy, or you don't have ubuntu installed?
[16:35] <Neosano> soccermitchy, if you don't, then just run livecd
[16:35] <firedream> “MLT's SDL module not found”，What’s mean？
[16:35] <Broseph> yagoo, isn't 4 drives just the minimum?
[16:35] <varikonniemi> hello, i saw some time ago a proposed oneiric aero snap, that did not make it in
[16:36] <soccermitchy> Can I just use Wine and run it?
[16:36] <varikonniemi> can it be found already separately?
[16:36] <auronandace> soccermitchy: do you know what wine is?
[16:36] <Abhijit> varikonniemi, try asking in #omg!ubuntu!
[16:37] <soccermitchy> Auro-Windows Compatibility Layer.
[16:37] <soccermitchy> Actually, WINE stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator
[16:37] <auronandace> soccermitchy: and how do you plan to use wine to partition a usb stick?
[16:37] <HelloWorld321> I'm pretty sure I fubar'ed my LightDm.  Is there a way to re-initialize it?
[16:37] <firedream> Hello，Who konow  kdenlive’s “MLT's SDL module not found”
[16:37] <alpicola> firedream: MLT made some changes in a recent upgrade that broke kdenlive 0.8; the current MLT is in the repos, but you need the development version of kdenlive  to use it.
[16:37] <soccermitchy> Live USB creator...
[16:38] <HelloWorld321> I know this one: WiNE stands for Windows Native Emulator.  :P
[16:38] <auronandace> soccermitchy: why can't you use gparted?
[16:38]  * yagoo thinks auronandace likes to whine too much
[16:38] <soccermitchy> Huh.
[16:38] <soccermitchy> Never thought of that

[16:47] <k013> hi, help! when unplugged, the battery consumption is unbelievable the entire battery is drained out in 9 minutes. this was not the case with all previous versions, including 11.04 and 10.10
[16:47] <konaya> Pessimist, use the command md5sum in Linux. In Windows, you need to download some third party app
[16:48] <konaya> k013, that's odd. Is it the same if you boot from the CD?
[16:48] <konaya> k013, what graphics card do you have?

[16:50] <konaya> k013, could you check whether the graphics drivers for your nVidia card have been loaded properly?
[16:50] <jll> hi all, does anybody use lubuntu 11.10 ??
[16:50] <scarleo> Pessimist: Try downloading via torrent instead of http
[16:50] <konaya> arthur, where does it say that?
[16:50] <Abhijit> jll, #lubuntu
[16:50] <konaya> jll, my mother does.
[16:50] <Kprawn> why do my letters become improperly spaced in my terminal when i change the font size?
[16:50] <NickV136> Abhijit: I've been there..Ive even installed it thru terminal, I just cant get it to workl
[16:50] <scarleo> Pessimist: oh, sorry, maybe your hash was correct
[16:50] <jll> I'm downloading it and hoping it's as good as ubuntu 10
[16:51] <arthur> konaya, System Settings > System Info
[16:51] <jimi_> I am getting read only file system errors in my home directory
[16:51] <Pessimist> scarleo, yes my hash is correct
[16:51] <k013> @konaya - yes through the additional drivers, its working fine!
[16:51] <Pessimist> It must be a problem with my partitions or the usb drive itself
[16:51] <konaya> arthur, does it affect your graphic experience in any way?
[16:51] <NickV136> jll: Im using it, its a bit rough at times, but worth it
[16:51] <caesar> WHAT's the best app to convert video for android phone
[16:51] <konaya> k013, hm. Install the program powertop. It measures battery drain and some other stuff.
[16:52] <arthur> konaya, i think im on Unity 2D, it doesnt affect everyday use but I wanted to use PlayOnLinux which told me I didnt have 3D
[16:52] <shafiq_> Good morning.  Can anyone offer any suggestion as to why my flash images appear broken as such http://bit.ly/qklwPg ?
[16:52] <konaya> arthur, ah. Hm.
[16:52] <jll> what do you mean rough? I tried mint 11 and other newer distros and the problem I have is it freezing on me or x just stops responding.

[16:52] <randomguy123> how can i move directory a/a into /a  using the mv command ?
[16:53] <Pessimist> It must be a problem with my partitions or the usb drive itself. Any ideas? There is one fat32 partition, it is set as main and has the boot flag and it has ubuntu files in it
[16:53] <caesar> ubottu: ok how bout a few recommendation
[16:53] <arthur> konaya, a load of "extension 'GLX' missing on display" messages
[16:53] <konaya> randomguy123, isn't the directory a/a already in the directory a?
[16:53] <Abhijit> randomguy123, mv a/a /a
[16:53] <sterwill> caesar, I haven't done video conversion specifically for Android, but Handbrake does a good job compressing to H264
[16:53] <k013> @konaya - thank you, one more, why does the brightness and volume keep getting reset to maximum values after reboot, i manually set them back to acceptable levels
[16:53] <scarleo> caesar: Try handbrake
[16:53] <popsch> ubuntu is seriously missing this feature: http://askubuntu.com/questions/63356/desktop-environments-that-allow-dragndrop-across-applications-via-alt-tab
[16:53] <jll> we have bots in here?? :0
[16:53] <NickV136> jll:well, I've been having problems updating, but I think it may just be my server, and its heavy on ram, but I run a notebook. but the new features make more than up for it
[16:53] <caesar> k handbrake thanks
[16:53] <randomguy123> it says it is the same directory, but it isn't
[16:54] <Kprawn> why do my letters become improperly spaced in my terminal when i change the font size?
[16:54] <jll> how much ram you have?
[16:54] <Kprawn> Rather...how i can i fix this

[16:54] <NickV136> the main problem is firefox
[16:54] <NickV136> but that got nothing to do with ubuntu
[16:55] <k013> @helloworld321 - yes i have nvidia but, the battery drain issue is not addressed
[16:55] <jll> ah ok, that's what I'm running, gateway desktop
[16:55] <konaya> k013, yeah, mine did that as well. I'm not sure why. But you can set the levels via the command line, so I just put some commands in my ~/.xinitrc

[16:57] <k013> @konaya - ok! i'm a rookie in ubuntu, the main attraction to me is the gui, lot of fear with the command line interface, how can i tell this to some person who will not let this happen in 12.04, also this is only my second time on an irc sorry about the slow responses!
[16:58] <Kprawn> I don't use Unity, but yeah i've been perusing the config file fruitlessly for a while.

[16:58] <caesar> HANDBRAKE does not look like it has a version for ubuntu 11.10.. will an earlier version work?
[16:58] <jll> you can go to symantic package and install it that way, then when you log out, you can select your name and at the bottom click the desktop type.
[16:58] <konaya> k013, well, the best way would be filing a bug in Launchpad, I guess.

[16:59] <scarleo> caesar: Yes, I'm running it on 11.10
[16:59] <yagoo> Kprawn, sometimes the X driver can't communicate with the monitor and sets a bad font dpi

[16:59] <scarleo> Pessimist: is your hardware ok?
[17:00] <caesar> scarleo: it's not in software center or synaptics.. which package from the site did you download?
[17:00] <shafiq_> Can anyone offer any suggestion as to why my flash images appear broken as such http://bit.ly/qklwPg ?
[17:00] <yagoo> Pessimist, did u try another port/different length usb cable?
[17:00] <Javid> yagoo: it's the screen on an hp tx2500 laptop.
[17:00] <yagoo> Javid, oh a laplet
[17:00] <Javid> yep :p
[17:00] <konaya> arthur, ah, all right. Mine is an i3, so I would presume an i5 should work without much problems.

[17:01] <scarleo> caesar: Don't remember, had it forever, try this PPA: https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-releases
[17:01] <Pessimist> scarleo, it seems so. yagoo, it is a usb card reader which has sd card in it. By the way, it worked before with the same hw
[17:01] <arthur> konaya, when i first installed Ubuntu on here i had no probs at all, I installed KDE, no probs, but kept getting vertical lines issues and ran the grub restore
[17:01] <jll> ubuntu, you can install the different desktop everaments (you know what I mean) and log in to it, if you don't like it, just switch back to what you are using.
[17:01] <sterwill> caesar, That PPA is the one I use
[17:01] <arthur> konaya, wont run glxgears...coz GLX is missing
[17:02] <sterwill> caesar, I use handbrake to encode video for my Roku TV streamer

[17:02] <GinoMan2440> especially since I don't see anywhere that this package conflicts with mesa
[17:02] <konaya> arthur, oh. Right. Sorry :)
[17:03] <NickV136> that might be something to try thanks.
[17:03] <arthur> konaya, thats ok, its part of the process
[17:03] <Adys> whats http://extras.ubuntu.com/ ?
[17:03] <NickV136> but for now, my ram only really gets nailed by firefox, and I dnt trust chromium, and opera doesnt work
[17:03] <Javid> yagoo: give you what? D:
[17:04] <yagoo> Javid, the outputted url of pastebinit
[17:04] <Javid> what am I pastebinning? thought you were talking to the other fella
[17:04] <yagoo> NickV136, what about chrome? isn't chrome!= chromium :o)
[17:05] <MonkeyDust> NickV136: chromium works fine, faster than FF
[17:05] <yagoo> oh
[17:05] <konaya> arthur, could you check whether the package xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed or not?
[17:05] <yagoo> "<Javid> How would one recalibrate a touchscreen in 11.10?
[17:05] <yagoo> ^>
[17:05] <yagoo> ?
[17:05] <Javid> yes
[17:06] <arthur> konaya, let me check
[17:06] <him> hello buddies
[17:06] <arthur> konaya, its installed
[17:06] <NickV136> yagoo: Chromium is the open source version of chrome an I dnt trust it, it its got to much spyware
[17:07] <arthur> konaya, it also recognises that i915 is in use
[17:07] <him> can any one tell me what is message bus security policy?
[17:07] <NickV136> MonkeyDust: yea its much faster, but I really dont trust it, I like my cloud as small as possible
[17:07] <yagoo> NickV136, firefox too has a spyware--
[17:07] <dr_willis> dont trust chromium?  yea  right..
[17:08] <yagoo> NickV136, *e100.net << sort of named dns it queries market data or something.. I filter this through my forwarding dns server
[17:08] <konaya> arthur, all right. Let's check your X logs.
[17:08] <Mion> NickV136: chromium is not spyware
[17:08] <NickV136> yagoo: yea but you can get add ons that block alot, an its still got less than chrome, and Im trying to get Tor, though very slow, Id rather have my info safee
[17:08] <yagoo> NickV136, i also turn off "safe-browsing" in firefox too.. I don't trust that free service..
[17:08] <konaya> arthur, could you put the contents of the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log on Pastebin and post the URL here?
[17:08]  * theadmin uses Opera and doesn't care
[17:09] <yagoo> NickV136, u know aboutg the safe-browsing feature in firefox? unnecessary..
[17:09] <NickV136> MockeyDust: it's not spyware, but it has spyware
[17:09] <arthur> konaya, will do
[17:09] <him> dr_willis: can u tell me what is message bus security?
[17:09] <HelloWorld321> I messed up my lightdm and I'm trying to re-install it.  I think I switch to gdm using [sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm] and the login screen looks like gdm, but [ps e] shows lightdm running and the menu bar acts like lightdm.  Can I uninstall lightdm and re-install it?
[17:09] <dr_willis> him no idea
[17:09] <caesar> sterwill: I followed how to add the repositories but how do you actually download the app from ppa
[17:09] <scarleo> him: You can read here if you're interested: http://linux.die.net/man/1/dbus-daemon
[17:09] <NickV136> yagoo: think Ive heard about it, but I havnt dug that much into firefox yet...
[17:09] <dr_willis> HelloWorld321:  you can
[17:10] <yagoo> NickV136, about:config -- type "safe" ..

[17:10] <Polah> a
[17:10] <him> dr_willis: its blocking me to send file to my cell phone from  computer...!!!
[17:10] <Polah> NickV136, Chromium does not "have" spyware...
[17:10] <jrib> HelloWorld321: if you want to, sure.  But what exactly did you do to "mess it up"?
[17:10] <scarleo> caesar: when you have added the ppa handbrake will be in synaptic
[17:10] <yagoo> NickV136, u can easily disable it-- Everytime you go to a website-- firefox checks an online database to see if that site is safe.. This to me is like a market tracking..
[17:10] <caesar> oh ok

[17:11] <nikokoko> Hello
[17:11] <NickV136> yagoo: true, Im looking at it now, but if your on fb then your already a target, hence I wana get tor, you know it?
[17:11] <yagoo> Pessimist, looks like it picked up the edid cleanly..
[17:11] <dr_willis> him send how?
[17:11] <yagoo> NickV136, Tor I never use..
[17:11] <him> dr_willis: via bluetooth.
[17:12] <NickV136> yagoo: why? you sound like you've tried it
[17:12] <HelloWorld321> jrib: glad you asked ... I tried to setup synergyc to auto-start, like I had it under gdm.  my gdm installation followed http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/autostart.html

[17:13] <gsr> Hi all.  I'm doing an image for a website I'm making, and I'm looking for a tool that will let me click or hover over anything on my screen and tell me the color.  Anyone know of a program that can do this?
[17:13] <yagoo> NickV136, I already am using something else..
[17:14] <arthur> konaya, well it shouldnt even try and look at nvidia though
[17:14] <NickV136> yagoo:mind if I enquire?
[17:14] <konaya> arthur, it might be probing for available hardware
[17:14]  * wh1zz0 ... After installing lamp-server, can someone please explain to me the REASON for editing the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default file and changing it from AllowOverride None to AllowOveride All. Is it some sort of htaccess setting or what? Thanks
[17:14] <GinoMan2440> Hey, does the changelog really determine what version a package is?
[17:14] <arthur> konaya, perhaps because near the bottom it keeps using intel
[17:14] <yagoo> GinoMan2440, -v --version from the commandline is better
[17:14] <vici> !list
[17:15] <frankhardy> since 'main menu' has been removed in 11.10, does anyone know how to add a program, in say /opt, to dash?
[17:15] <GinoMan2440> yagoo: I'm talking about a .deb package
[17:15] <Shdwdrgn> anyone here familiar with ldirectord?  Since upgrading to natty on Friday, my syslog and console windows are getting filled with the message "IPVS: WLC: no destination available".  I can't do anything in the console because the messages are so constant.
[17:15] <GinoMan2440> for the sake of dependancy resolution
[17:15] <arthur> konaya, its strange though because I have Nvidia manager thing randomly but it doesnt work

[17:15] <GinoMan2440> when built

[17:17] <yagoo> Pessimist, or Javid, which one of you is asking about the tablet issue?
[17:17] <arthur> konaya, ok, so how do i get it to load just Intel and tell it i dont have Nvidia? lmao
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> Shdwdrgn: is the system in a cluster?
[17:17] <konaya> arthur, currently googling :)
[17:17] <dr_willis> user defined can be handy
[17:17] <yagoo> Pessimist, u getting "resets" ? (dmesg |tail)
[17:18] <Shdwdrgn> ActionParsnip, its my firewall, which directs all the traffic to the internal servers via ldirectord
[17:18] <Shdwdrgn> ActionParsnip, and the servers are receiving their traffic
[17:19] <yagoo> konaya, googling is boogley stuff..

[17:19] <arthur> almoxarife, erm, vpu? whats that?
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> Shdwdrgn: http://archive.linuxvirtualserver.org/html/lvs-devel/2011-02/msg00060.html   seems there has been a patch, are there any bugs reported?
[17:19] <konaya> yagoo, indeed
[17:20] <arthur> almoxarife, as far as im aware from the moment I bought this, this is 100% intel...no Ati, no Nvidia
[17:20] <scarleo> arthur: it's you graphics card, vpu
[17:20] <yagoo> arthur, nothing is 100%...
[17:20] <konaya> arthur, is it a laptop?
[17:20] <scarleo> arthur: or gpu
[17:20] <konaya> arthur, if so, which one?
[17:21] <caesar> scarleo: i'm getting a 404 error for the ppa
[17:21] <arthur> yagoo, you know what i mean as in integrated...i have a laptop
[17:21] <yagoo> arthur, but intel is good choice.. imho (I'm pissed with amd)
[17:21] <zteam> Hi
[17:21] <Shdwdrgn> ActionParsnip, yeah when I googled, a ton of pages came up about that patch, but nothing really explains why that message is coming up or how to suppress it.
[17:22] <arthur> yagoo, it wasnt as much as a choice as a nice pricetag XD
[17:22] <scarleo> caesar: you added only: ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases ?
[17:22] <scarleo> caesar: no http or anything else?
[17:22] <caesar> yes
[17:22] <konaya> arthur, I might be on to something; I have found someone with similar symptoms on a forum; I'm currently checking if he found a solution.
[17:23] <arthur> konaya, i owe you a beer
[17:23] <yagoo> arthur, dunno what it is.. but i have 2 amd machines-- their powersaving feature sux.. does not matter what i do.. they're f noisiest machines i ever had.. I would prefer intel on my next machine
[17:23] <almoxarife> caesar: usually that means the ppa does not support your release, unless the ppa's server is just down
[17:23]  * xangua notices the ppa scarleo and caesar mention doesn't has packages for oneiric
[17:23] <konaya> arthur, a tumbler of nice single malt if it's all the same to you. :P
[17:23] <arthur> konaya, deal
[17:23] <scarleo> xangua: ah, thanks
[17:23] <scarleo> caesar: edit the ppa entry and type in natty where it says oneiric
[17:24] <arthur> yagoo, well thanks for the heads up lol, tell ya what though, had nothing but trouble with this thing, brightness settings dont work, now this, those ugly vertical lines every other boot
[17:24] <yagoo> arthur, this for the onboard intel?
[17:25] <arthur> yagoo, yeah

[17:29] <GinoMan2440> now to send these fixed packages off to the debian maintainers and we'll be set

[17:34] <DJredstar> hi i was wondering what apps i can use google account with on this computer
[17:34] <skatepunkcat> hello ubuntu irc channel, i have a problem were every time i open the software center it automatically close's, here is a   terminal out put when i run sudo software-center  http://paste.ubuntu.com/717008/ any help would be awesome. oh im running xubuntu
[17:35] <yagoo> Pessimist, i asked (dunno if u tried).. but sometimes different port/cable lenghts makes a difference (from my experience it can have an effect)
[17:35] <Unode> jrib, running configure, building firefox 7 from source
[17:35] <scarleo> caesar: you see the ppa in the left hand menu?
[17:35] <jrib> Unode: why?  Firefox is in the repositories
[17:35] <Unode> jrib, I need to build it to prepare an extension
[17:35] <Unode> that requires compiling
[17:35] <frankhardy> ceasar sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases
[17:35] <yagoo> Unode, and patience ;)
[17:35] <jrib> Unode: that seems strange, but run « sudo apt-get build-dep firefox »
[17:36] <DJredstar> is there a way i can use google docs without having to open up firefox?
[17:36] <Unode> yagoo, yeah I know I'm up for 2 hours compiling on this machine
[17:36] <scarleo> caesar: it should say: LP-PPA-stebbins/handbrake-releasees/natty
[17:36] <yagoo> DJredstar, google docs suck.. I just use cat > tofile
[17:36] <Unode> jrib, I'm doing it by hand if that info is relevant
[17:36] <jrib> Unode: I don't understand what "by hand" means
[17:36] <DJredstar> whats that yagoo?
[17:36] <caesar> scarleo: i just added again and im reloading now
[17:37] <jrib> Unode: I will return shortly
[17:37] <yagoo> jrib, it means the "manual" way-- without using any "wizards".
[17:37] <Unode> jrib, I'm not using ubuntu's tools to build a deb, I'm simply running configure ; make manually
[17:37] <yagoo> DJredstar, that's not really a question about #ubuntu.. google-docs sucks..
[17:37] <dr_willis> build-deps is soo usefull
[17:37] <DJredstar> oh
[17:38] <Unode> build deps installed some libraries but it still fails with the same error
[17:38] <dr_willis> build-deps will install needed dev packages.
[17:38] <DJredstar> but what is the online accounts setting in system settings for yagoo?
[17:38] <en1gma> ok i have an RT3572L chipset (linksys usb wifi adapter) how do you get it to use an RT2800 driver with RT3071 firmware......i know the device ID has to be added to the build files of the RT2800 right? but how do you get it to load the RT3071 firmware?
