[11:18] <makubi> hi, since today, when I am booting my notebook, the boot screen does not disappier until I press ctrl+alt+del. after that, the gnome login screen appears and I am able to log in. I think it has something todo with my wifi link which worked fine before. on last boot, dmesg said that the system was unable to load the firmware for that (suddenly). what's going on?
[11:19] <ddalton> this is a stable version correct? ubuntu-10.10-alternate-i386.iso
[11:19] <ddalton> cos last updated date is sat dec 25...
[11:19] <tarvid> ddalton, yes it is "stable" but not LTS
[11:20] <ddalton> why not lts?
[11:20] <andrew_46> tarvid: I suspect you have used the defaults with vlc and these are often not particularly sensitive. Much more control is possible with FFmpeg
[11:20] <tarvid> then it is a bug in vlc?
[11:20] <tarvid> is it upstream or in packaging?
[11:21] <andrew_46> tarvid: No, it is simply not always the best tool for this job
[11:21] <rs0832> tarvid, not a bug.. its just that vlc does not give that much configuration flexibility for this
[11:21] <tarvid> but it is supposed to "work" isn't it?
[11:21] <rs0832> tarvid, all programs of the type will do this..
[11:22] <rs0832> tarvid, its just that vlc is made for watching videos more than converting them
[11:22] <andrew_46> tarvid: This is your best bet: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095
[11:23] <XVampireX> Hello I need some help with setting up HDMI connection on intel graphics?
[11:23] <tarvid> x264 is mp4?
[11:23] <rs0832> tarvid, yes
[11:23] <tarvid> then it is a packaging bug?
[11:24] <andrew_46> tarvid: x264 is an open source encoder that produces h.264 video, mp4 in this case is a container
[11:24] <rs0832> tarvid, nope..
[11:24] <rs0832> tarvid, (i mean it is not a bug.. what andrew_46 said is right*)
[11:25] <tarvid> this would be easier in "Arch"
[11:25]  * andrew_46 is usually not right :)
[11:25] <andrew_46> tarvid: The man who wrote the FFmpeg guide is an Arch user :)
[11:25] <rs0832> tarvid, this is a problem you have with the tool

[11:27] <infrid64> bye
[11:28] <tarvid> ffmpeg -i lucey.VOB lucey.mp4 works perfectly
[11:29] <tarvid> so it is a bug in vlc? not ffmpeg
[11:29] <tarvid> I may have the medibuntu version of ffmpeg, how would I know?
[11:29] <tarvid> Had similar issues with mov files
[11:29] <rs0832> tarvid, there is no bug
[11:30] <andrew_46> tarvid: Medibuntu does not package FFmpeg as such, have you used their package of libavcodec perhaps?
[11:30] <tarvid> FFmpeg version SVN-r0.5.1-4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 works
[11:30] <tarvid> One knows less and less as you add repositories trying to fix problems
[11:31] <tarvid> I run natty on my laptop, maybe I should try that?
[11:31] <andrew_46> tarvid: Can you pastebin the results of ffmpeg -i lucy.VOB ?
[11:33] <kad_> heys!! i ineed help!! i have HP Pavilion Dv6 i7, there's 8G RAM , under windows they appear: 8G but under ubuntu they only appear 3.8G why? Ubuntu is 64-bit !!plz help
[11:33] <jeanette> Hello, I was wondering how one can get the ubuntu repo drivers for Nvidia cards installing
[11:33] <jeanette> I
[11:34] <tarvid> andrew_46, http://pastebin.com/GzkAfD79
[11:34] <jeanette> I've had a manual install of the drivers before but now I want ubuntu to do all the work - not fun gfx getting broken on every update
[11:35] <jeanette> Problem is that when Hardware drivers the box is empty
[11:36] <meco> I need some help on getting Flash to work. It is enabled (10.1) and I get no error messages, the apps (on Facebook/Firefox) simply won't load.
[11:37] <andrew_46> tarvid: Your copy of FFmpeg is missing all the good stuff like x264, mp3 and aac... Are you using Maverick?
[11:38] <rs0832> meco, did you try updating?
[11:38] <tarvid> andrew_46, Lucid up-to-date
[11:38] <meco> rs0832: I'll try that.
[11:38] <rs0832> meco, oj
[11:38] <rs0832> meco, ok*
[11:38] <Faissal> merry christmas
[11:39] <jeanette_S> No one knows how to get repo Nvidia drivers working after have had manual install of the drivers?
[11:39] <andrew_46> tarvid: If you are not keen on compiling follow section C in this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1117283
[11:39] <kad__> how can i know if installed Ubuntu is 64-bit ?
[11:39] <kad__> i did : uname -a "Linux kad 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux" => iis't 64-bit ?
[11:40] <ussaine> ussaine
[11:40] <bazhang> kad__, yes
[11:40] <kad__> bazhang, aha then why do you think 8G RAM don't appear under Ubuntu ?
[11:40] <kad__> bazhang, under windows7, they appear!
[11:41] <tarvid> andrew_46, thanks, I'll try medibuntu, that will pass along to other users better if it works
[11:42] <andrew_46> tarvid: But once this is in place you will be able to encode your vob to h.264 video and aac sound in mp4 container, it will look great :)
[11:43] <tarvid> actually the ffmpeg command above worked fine
[11:43] <meco> rs0832: I updated with no effect. It may not be related, but Firefox behaves odd also: even though its settings is to preserve windows when restarting, it reopens with Google's search page.
[11:43] <rs0832> meco, hmm.. did you try disabling and re-enabling that feature?
[11:44] <meco> rs0832: No, I'll try that
[11:44] <tarvid> andrew_46, libavcodec-extra-52 is already the newest version. must have done that before
[11:45] <ddalton> hey guys anyone know how to tell the installer about my swap partition already set up (cos i use a swap partition for debian)
[11:46] <rigved> ddalton: in the manual partition, tell it to use the swap partition and also not to format that
[11:47] <ddalton>  rigved: ok, and i can also tell it to what partition to install to as well? i.e. i'm going to create a 12 gb or so partition under  extended (type ext 3)
[11:48] <rigved> ddalton: ok. use the already partitioned space. tell the installer to use that. make sure that you tell it now to format
[11:49] <andrew_46> tarvid: Seems odd..... Does this command fail: ffmpeg -i lucy.VOB -vcodec libx264 -vpre slow -crf 22 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k test.mp4 ?
[11:50] <tarvid> andrew_46, File for preset 'slow' not found
[11:52] <amit> how  to know whih process is open through terminal?
[11:53] <amit> and how to kill process through terminal?
[11:54] <amit> how to see my open process through terminal and how to delete process/
[11:54] <SwedeMike> amit: look into the commands "ps" and "kill"
[11:54] <amit> ps is for?
[11:54] <SwedeMike> amit: that's what the "man" command is for. "man ps"
[11:55] <tarvid> andrew_46, MOV to mp4 seems to work with ffmpeg too. Wife and I have ZI6 cameras and the MOV files are relatively large, looking for a way to move them around more conveniently
[11:55] <ddalton>  rigved: thanks i think i got it, but it will tell me like "sda7" or whatever im installing to correct? cos i have a couple of ext3 partions (home and debian install)
[11:55] <ddalton> partitions*
[11:56] <hihihi100> i want to make a partition in an external HD I have via gparted, it keeps advising me to make a backup copy, because soma data may be lost, is there any way I can make the partition without the risk of losing data?
[11:56] <tarvid> andrew_46, thanks and have a Merry Christmas
[11:56] <andrew_46> tarvid: Oops sorry, looks like Lucid FFmpeg does not use presets, this starts in Maverick
[11:56] <meco> rs0832: Disable/enable did the trick!
[11:56] <andrew_46> tarvid: And you too :)
[11:56] <rs0832> meco, k great :)
[11:57] <rigved> ddalton: yes. again i am reminding you to make sure that it does not format...otherwise its UUID will change and debian will not be able to mount it. not a problem as you can change fstab in debian later to mount this swap
[11:58] <amit> sweedmike:thanx
[11:58] <Firartix> HEY GUYZ. Anyone know how to change screen brightness on the netbook edition ? At the moment it's stuck at minimum..... I tried looking inside the battery settings, but there's no brightess setting while on battery power. Besides, settings for other modes are broken.
[11:59] <greeenway> hi, is there any chance to get a "wacom bamboo fun tablet" working under ubuntu 10.10? thanks :)
[11:59] <Firartix> anyone D: ?
[11:59] <ddalton>  rigved: awesome -- thanks.
[12:00] <rigved> ddalton: :)
[12:01] <Firartix> there's a setting for brightness level while on AC
[12:01] <Firartix> but none while on battery power
[12:02] <Firartix> there's just a "reduce backlight etc"
[12:02] <Firartix> which, in my case, desactivates it completely

[12:17] <ali> is there anyone there who knows how to install .apk applications to an android phone via ubuntu

[12:34] <enc> elslunko, y i could do that but i feel a little cheated as they said it will be installed and as im paying for it kinda does not make me happy, but just to awoid such dependencies in the future it would be good if i would get the knowlegde of installing the stuf i will need
[12:35] <elslunko> enc yeah it's pretty easy, not sure who you have it set up with and for what purpose. I mean it COULD be installed somewhere different than the default location but that would be odd.
[12:35] <bonjoyee> ziozizo: you mean the VLC media player?
[12:36] <enc> elslunko, i thought webmins need apache to run? is it so?

[12:38] <Firartix> rigved: um.... what's cpanel ?
[12:39] <hihihi100> what models, if any, or brands should i look for?

[12:53] <country0129> Sorry, rig, you were talking about a Samba forum?
[12:53] <bazhang> AnthonyCat, with Ubuntu? hfsutils was the package (let me check)
[12:53] <tim> who
[12:53] <veovis_muaddib> I customized my PS1 by copying one I liked and tweaking it, and now when I login through ssh, typing too many characters makes the line wrap to itself, so commands overwrite the prompt and become hard to read.  I assume I made a syntax error or something, because I copied and pasted.
[12:53] <veovis_muaddib> PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[00;37m\]{\e[01;34m\t\e[00;37m} | \e[00;31mEndor\e[01;32m\[\033[00m\] | \[\033[01;34m\]\W\[\033[00m\] \e[01;37m\$ '
[12:53] <amit> user:it show product g96,so is my version is of 96
[12:53] <bazhang> AnthonyCat, hfsplus and hfsutils seem to apply here
[12:54] <veovis_muaddib> AnthonyCat: If I recall it's a command in OS X through disktuil
[12:54] <bazhang> veovis_muaddib, looks like a PS1 or debian issue
[12:54] <rigved> country0129: just some wiki guides...do you want the links again?
[12:54] <AnthonyCat> veovis_muaddib: yeah, I was just wondering if disabling journaling was the right thing to do
[12:54] <chemist_> Hello everyone! I've got a problem here... whenever i try to install ANY driver or something...whenever i use the command "make" i see in the system monitor that all my RAM got used up, and the computer became super-slow... while sitting in terminal and not progressing with the "make" ... any ideas anyone? :(
[12:54] <country0129> Nossir.  I've been to the Samba wikki thingies...no joy.
[12:55] <veovis_muaddib> AnthonyCat: I share a home/users directory between Arch and OS X, no problems thus far...
[12:55] <bazhang> chemist_, why would you compile your drivers
[12:55] <veovis_muaddib> AnthonyCat: Other than not figuring out how to also share it with Windows 7
[12:55] <Goldline> Games are best played on a Windows PC - DOnt bother buying a console
[12:55] <rigved> chemist_: not that i know how to solve that but the place to start is /var/log/messages
[12:55] <chemist_> bazhang: ;) that's not the point now
[12:55] <bazhang> !ot | Goldline
[12:55] <AnthonyCat> veovis_muaddib: so I am meant to disable journaling?
[12:55] <country0129> Have the same stuff, 'Cat, problem, too.
[12:55] <bazhang> chemist_, its not the supported method
[12:56] <veovis_muaddib> AnthonyCat: Yeah, and then mount it in fstab or whatever with hfsplus, and you're good
[12:56] <AnthonyCat> ok, thanks to all :)
[12:56] <chemist_> bazhang: i'm trying to install a different wifi driver
[12:56] <bazhang> chemist_, for which chipset
[12:56] <chemist_> ipw2200
[12:56] <chemist_> superancient i know ;D
[12:57] <bazhang> chemist_, you should consider #aircrack-ng if I am guessing correctly
[12:57] <rigved> chemist_: that gets installed by default in ubuntu
[12:57] <chemist_> bazhang: i am using it
[12:57] <chemist_> i can't catch handshakes anymore...i used to, with older versions of ubuntu...
[12:57] <bazhang> ipw is in the kernel afaik
[12:58] <chemist_> rigved: a DIFFERENT version
[12:58] <rigved> chemist_: the firmware ipw2200 gets installed by default is your hardware requires it
[12:58] <chemist_> is what i need
[12:58] <user> 20:54 <rigved> country0129: just some wiki guides...do you want the links again?
[12:58] <chemist_> anyway
[12:58] <chemist_> i've ask another thing
[12:58] <chemist_> asked*
[12:58] <rigved> chemist_: check /var/log/messages
[12:58] <chemist_> why does "make" eat up all my ram
[12:59] <chemist_> and sit there doing nothing
[12:59] <rigved> chemist_: ^^
[12:59] <chemist_> rigved: ok ;D
[12:59] <chemist_> i have lounch now
[12:59] <chemist_> tnx
[12:59] <user> amit: sorry, not sure. All i know is lshw will give u the details u need....not exactly sure how we would interpret it though
[12:59] <rigved> chemist_: also, run top in a different terminal and make sure which file is using up your RAM
[12:59] <bazhang> amit for video card? lspci
[12:59] <rigved> chemist_: when you are using make
[13:01] <amit> bazhang:thanx
[13:07] <peledziunas> hello
[13:08] <CyL> I have this encrypted FS on top of an LVM LV, which I don't want to be automatically mounted on boot time, but which I would like to make mountable to regular users through an entry in fstab. Is there a way to do this, since the device to be mounted is only available after opening it with cryptsetup?
[13:08] <paddy_> I just got my new computer but the graphics are really old, I downloaded 10.10. It looks like ubuntu from the 90's ( i know it wasn't out then) the top bar with the name is 10.10's though, whats wrong?
[13:08] <CyL> And by rhe way, Merry Xmas to all!
[13:09] <ox3a> Any mssql Client GUI tool?
[13:09] <ubuntu> I need help my wlan card will not turn on.
[13:11] <peledziunas> i'm trying to load up ubuntu on my laptop. and got stuck on that window where there ubuntu and 5 dots below. they are just changing from orange to white for an hour or so.. should i wait more or try to do something?
[13:11] <Ryu_Kurisu> ox3a: Try NaviCat
[13:11] <lonewulf> I have ar5007 wlan card my ubuntu recognizes it but will not turn it on.
[13:12] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: Did you go through the installation or is this only the first boot?
[13:12] <peledziunas> its first boot
[13:12] <Ryu_Kurisu> Did you try to check the CD before you booted from it?
[13:13] <peledziunas> nope
[13:13] <peledziunas> how could i do that?
[13:14] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: If you created the CD on windows, you could try md5sum....there's a simple tool for that...lemma find it for you :)
[13:15] <ardian> Hi I need some help I installed Ubuntu side by side with windows but the grub menu isn't there it only goes to Windows
[13:15] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: You could use this tool: http://www.nullriver.com/downloads/Install-winMd5Sum.exe
[13:15] <peledziunas> but what's the best way to get out from that blinking dots window? just eject cd or what?
[13:16] <Ryu_Kurisu> It creates a md5sum of the CD which you can check against the md5sums provided by ubuntu...
[13:17] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: press power button 5 secs and boot to windows...
[13:17] <Diamondcite> ardian: So you only see the windows boot loader?
[13:17] <ardian> Diamondcite: I don't grub
[13:18] <ardian> I don't see grub
[13:18] <ardian> It goes to windows
[13:18] <Diamondcite> ardian: Was ubuntu installed successfully? And which type of install?
[13:19] <ardian> Diamondcite: I installed Ubuntu 10.10 it is successfully installed most of my files are there I re-installed windows and now there is no grub menu
[13:19] <ardian> But there is the ext4
[13:19] <Diamondcite> Oh windows was RE-installed..
[13:20] <Diamondcite> That usually wipes out grub.
[13:20] <Ryu_Kurisu> Prolly the MBR also reinstalled...
[13:20] <Diamondcite> likely.
[13:20] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, That is not open source and is it in synaptic?
[13:20]  * Diamondcite googles putting back grub as mbr
[13:20] <Ryu_Kurisu> What is ox3a?
[13:20] <Ryu_Kurisu> Ow...NaviCat?
[13:21] <root> hello guys
[13:21] <ardian> So the problem is that I can't go to ubuntu, because there's no grub menu to select which one you want to boot
[13:21] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, NaviCat
[13:21] <root> hi guys i need help
[13:21] <Diamondcite> ardian: Do you have a live CD or live USB on hand?
[13:21] <Guest43412> some way i deleted my xorg file conf what i have to do ?
[13:21] <ardian> Diamondcite: yes
[13:21] <Ryu_Kurisu> ox3a: It isn opensource or in synaptic....but it is the most practical GUI tool I've used :)
[13:22] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, i see
[13:22] <peledziunas> Ryu_Kurisu, whats the normal time those 5 dots should blink?
[13:23] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: From CD I think max. 2 minutes...
[13:23] <Diamondcite> ardian: Try these instructions: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/547483/
[13:23] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, I do not see for linux here: http://www.navicat.com/en/download/download.html
[13:24] <ardian> Diamondcite: okay thanx
[13:24] <Ryu_Kurisu> ox3a: You don see the link with Tux?
[13:24] <nirazio> On update i get this error http://pastebin.ca/2028893 can anyone help me???
[13:25] <Diamondcite> Guest43412: Looking into your issue please wait..
[13:25] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, no
[13:25] <Diamondcite> Err he left?
[13:26] <Ryu_Kurisu> ox3a: Lite: http://download2.navicat.com/download/navicat9_lite_en.tar.gz Premium(30 day trail): http://download2.navicat.com/download/navicat9_premium_en.tar.gz
[13:26] <Ryu_Kurisu> (From the page you sent me ox3a ;))
[13:26] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, i also got "SORRY"
[13:27] <peledziunas> Ryu_Kurisu, in that md5 program i picked md5sum.txt from cd and then pressed compare and it says sums are different
[13:27] <peledziunas> but what is it comparing it with?
[13:27] <Ryu_Kurisu> ox3a: Sorry?
[13:28] <Ryu_Kurisu> You need to enter the comparing md5sum...I'll find a link where they are provided
[13:28] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, Because i did not find the link
[13:28] <Ryu_Kurisu> Well...it should be there ox3a <_<"
[13:28] <ox3a> Ryu_Kurisu, Now i can see
[13:29] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: Here you can find the md5sum of your cd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes
[13:31] <nirazio> what happens when we uncomment GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true in /etc/default/grub.
[13:32] <Ryu_Kurisu> nirazio: I think it would disappear either all the Linuxes present or the fail-safe boot options...
[13:36] <lindi-> I'd like to ask the gma500 team a question but https://launchpad.net/~gma500 says that the mailing list is only for team members. Am I supposed to join the team to ask a question or is there some other common way of contacting the team?
[13:37] <Semtex> Merry xmas and a happy new year to all the Ubuntu community! heres to another year of openess!
[13:38] <peledziunas> Ryu_Kurisu, yep, sums are different, another question if i try to make live USB with a external harddrive with information inside, wouldn't that program delete my files that are in harddrive now?
[13:39] <CyL> I have this encrypted FS on top of an LVM LV, which I don't want to be automatically mounted on boot time, but which I would like to make mountable to regular users through an entry in fstab. Is there a way to do this, since the device to be mounted is only available after opening it with cryptsetup?
[13:40] <pyghassen> is it possible to assign your domain name to your pc ip address, and make it your website server ?
[13:40] <CarlFK> lindi-: no clue really, but this looks reasonable: https://launchpad.net/~gma500/+contactuser
[13:41] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: I think it does, but you might be able to add a folder to the created "image" on the USB....if you add a . in front of the folder name...it would be hidden I think...not sure thought
[13:41] <CarlFK> CyL: in fstab, add the option "noauto"
[13:42] <CyL> CarlFK: that would suffice for not mounting it at boot time, but there's still the problem of opening the device...
[13:42] <Ryu_Kurisu> peledziunas: so folder name should be like ".backup" or something...
[13:43] <peledziunas> you mean if i put all my info on harddrive into hidden folder, then that USB program won't delete those files?
[13:45] <Ryu_Kurisu> I first put them on the laptop/desktop and put them back when the program is finished peledziunas :)
[13:46] <sacarlson> pyghassen: yes you can, you want the domain to only effect your local network?
[13:48] <pyghassen> sacarlson, no I own a domain name and I want it to be hosted on my pc
[13:48] <Megz> ok.. i tried Ubuntu. My opinion: pretty stupid
[13:49] <Megz> Why can't it run windows software like Linspire?
[13:49] <sacarlson> pyghassen: yes that's what I do with my domain from godaddy.com
[13:49] <noms> Hey folks, I wonder if anyone could help me with a problem I have?
[13:49] <Megz> what's the big deal about running windows software
[13:50] <chemist_> hello everyone...i've got a question... is it possible that some of the system processes in ubuntu(crunchbang) which use my ipw2200 wifi card conflict with the capturing of handshakes???
[13:50] <chemist_> because i remember being able to capture wpa handshakes with this same card years ago...
[13:50] <chemist_> though i am able to deauth and capture the handshake with my other wifi card... rt73 (usb dongle) .. but the antenna is way weaker than the ipw2200 one...
[13:50] <chemist_> the ipw2200 gives me more results with airodump-ng command, shows more APs.... shortly - the signal is stronger
[13:50] <sacarlson> pyghassen: but is you home computer in a nat network for your local network?  if you want to be seen inside and outside your network you would need to run bind9
[13:51] <pyghassen> sacarlson, godaddy is no help for me, coz I'm not the one who bought it from them, a hosting company bought for me
[13:51] <sacarlson> pyghassen: it maters not who you register you domain it's all the same
[13:51] <noms> My USB Ports on my old Laptop have decided to stop working after I did a bios update. In Wnidows it states that there are not enough system resources (Code 12) and in Ubuntu it's not recognising ANY usb devices plugged in, so I assume it's a problem with the BIOS not assigning the ports the right IRQs or something. Can anyone help?
[13:52] <pyghassen> sacarlson, what is it the bind9
[13:52] <sacarlson> pyghassen: can you change the dns server of the registered server?
[13:52] <i_is_broke> noms, try in, in ##hardware.
[13:52] <sacarlson> pyghassen: bind9 is the dns server software that runs on linux
[13:53] <noms> i_is_broke: Thanks
[13:53] <pavanai> hw 2 connect bluetooth modem using terminal
[13:53] <pyghassen> sacarlson, what dns server should i put?
[13:54] <pavanai> somebody help me
[13:54] <lindi-> CarlFK: thanks, "Message sent to GMA500 Team"
[13:54] <sacarlson> pyghassen: your registry should allow you to determine who you want to be the master dns server of your domain
[13:54] <pavanai> xcuse me gys
[13:54] <pyghassen> sacarlson, should I intall it in my laptop?
[13:54] <pavanai> pls help me!!!!!
[13:55] <sacarlson> pyghassen: there are free services that can do the dns server from a static location.  bind9 is only needed so your local network can see the same as the wan network
[13:55] <nirazio> I run ubuntu 10.10 and use rhythmbox regularly with the albumartsearch plugin installed. However when I change the album art it is only temporary. On moving to the next song it automatically removes the previous song's album art cover..Why??
[13:56] <sacarlson> pyghassen: again I assume you are on an adsl home network system that is nat,  am I wrong?
[13:56] <pavanai> hw 2 connect bluetooth modem using terminal?
[13:56] <AceKing> I lost my network icon in my panel. I googled tried everything I read to fix it, but nothing worked. Can someone help me to get it back?
[13:57] <pyghassen> sacarlson, something like that, yeah, a 3G usb stick :)
[13:58] <sacarlson> pyghassen: a 3g stick is not a network,  do you know what nat is?  (network address translation)
[13:58] <pyghassen> sacarlson,  I got my own ip address so I can bind on it right?
[13:58] <zamba> i need a failproof setup for alsa
[13:58] <zamba> i never got it working
[13:58] <pyghassen> sacarlson, sorry i missed that :)
[13:58] <zamba> and i'm sure i'll never will
[13:58] <sacarlson> pyghassen: again I don't know if you have a static address that is wan or not
[13:58] <zamba> (this is a headless server)
[13:59] <BluesKaj> pyghassen, one can set dns server in /etc/resolv.config for example :nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> then underneath : nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:59] <pyghassen> sacarlson, i just need it temperately not all the time
[13:59] <sacarlson> pyghassen: without know what kind of a network connection you have there's not much I can do for you
[14:00] <pyghassen> sacarlson,  should i run ifconfig to know?
[14:00] <sacarlson> pyghassen: if you just want to see it from that computer just modify the file /etc/hosts in you laptop, then you don't need to do much else but then only you will see mydomain.com
[14:01] <pyghassen> sacarlson, it's  ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
[14:01] <sacarlson> pyghassen:  yes ipconfig will tell us if you are nat
[14:02] <pyghassen> sacarlson, so this no nat ?
[14:02] <sacarlson> pyghassen: do you care if it can be seen from wan or not  (wan = world accesable network)
[14:02] <BluesKaj> pyghassen, that dns server is google dns btw, and if you have router then you must configure it to google dns too, rather than auto
[14:03] <sacarlson> pyghassen: ppp0 is normaly nat yes
[14:03] <sacarlson> pyghassen: ifconfig would tell us more
[14:03] <sacarlson> pyghassen: the ip address
[14:04] <pyghassen> sacarlson, I just modify the dns in the my provider's interface to dns1.google.com ...
[14:04] <pyghassen> sacarlson, is this will help the matter?
[14:04] <ZykoticK9> pyghassen, dns addresses MUST be IP addresses
[14:05] <pyghassen> my provider doesn't accept ip address only domain name
[14:05] <leviatan> hi, all amule servers are down?
[14:05] <sacarlson> pyghassen: you will need to setup a noip.com service to point your domain at since your ppp ip will always be changing
[14:05] <friese> hi
[14:06] <pyghassen> sacarlson, i just want it to work for one time, to verify ownership
[14:07] <BluesKaj> ZykoticK9, a dns address isn't an IP
[14:07] <friese> my graphics card always gets very hot on ubuntu, i already turned the fan in my thinkpad t60p up to maximum but it doenst help. i suspect an ap uses many gpu. replacing compiz with kwin doesnt brought me anything either...
[14:07] <sacarlson> pyghassen: ok then just change it to the dns1.google.com would prove that as stated above
[14:07] <pyghassen> sacarlson, http://www.no-ip.com/ is it free?
[14:07] <friese> is there a tol that lists wich processes my graphics card use?
[14:07] <sacarlson> pyghassen: yes it's free
[14:07] <pyghassen> sacarlson, what should i do now?
[14:08] <ZykoticK9> BluesKaj, i missed what the poster was doing exactly.  But how could a DNS server be addressed by a DNS name?  It couldn't.  Thus we see IP addresses, and not Domain names, in /etc/resolv.conf
[14:08] <pyghassen> sacarlson, where should I click services?
[14:09] <BluesKaj> ZykoticK9, they'r called nameservers in resolv.config
[14:09] <sacarlson> pyghassen: well the way I do it is I use EVERYDNS.NET  it's also free and I have that point to no-ip.com as my cname address
[14:09] <leviatan> hi, I need confirmation: all amule or emule servers are down?
[14:09] <ao> does anybody can help me about how to install ubuntu on mac?
[14:10] <sacarlson> pyghassen: I run software noip2 that keeps no-ip.com updated to what my present address is and everydns.net points my surething.biz to that
[14:10] <pyghassen> sacarlson, i'm lost what should I do, there is dns manage plus should I go there?
[14:10] <ao> leviatan: maybe not?
[14:11] <leviatan> ao, in my country yes
[14:11] <sacarlson> pyghassen: yes dns manage would probly be where you tell your registry where to point
[14:11] <Ploozi> ao, it should be self-explanatory?
[14:11] <pyghassen> sacarlson, and what abou everydns?
[14:12] <ao> leviatan: ?mean what?
[14:12] <sacarlson> pyghassen: that would be one possible dns server that you could use,  there are many,  this one is free
[14:12] <Ploozi> I'm not sure on Mac, but wouldn't you put in the CD and reboot?
[14:13]  * skraito say hi all
[14:13] <sacarlson> pyghassen: normaly they want two dns servers so you could setup NS1.EVERYDNS.NET and ns2.everydns.net
[14:14] <ao> Ploozi: there do have some small problem on my mac,like partion
[14:14] <sacarlson> pyghassen: I'm sorry this is way off topic,  if you want more info pm me
[14:14] <leviatan> i dont have servers of emule , dreamule in ubuntu with wine and in windows too
[14:14] <leviatan> ao, i dont have servers of emule , dreamule in ubuntu with wine and in windows too
[14:14] <ao> leviatan: i think pt is more great
[14:14] <pyghassen> sacarlson, i'm sighing up on no_ip now
[14:15] <pavanai> hw 2 connect bluetooth modem using termibnal?
[14:15] <oal> I got a Logitech G700 mouse for christmas, and I'm wondering if there's a GUI application to map mouse buttons in Linux?
[14:16] <Diamondcite> leviatan: According to amule, some servers are up
[14:17] <pavanai> sombdy pls hlp!!!
[14:17] <i_is_broke> oal, go into system settings, and adjust it.
[14:17] <i_is_broke> oal, will be under input devices.
[14:18] <kaddi> Hi, is anyone here on this fine day? :) I have a (intertronic) digital frame keyring, that mounts itself automatically as a CD-Rom on ubuntu and hence is unwritable. Does anyone know of a work around so I can put some pictures onto it?
[14:18] <Diamondcite> pavanai: What do you mean bluetooth modem? Not enough details..
[14:18] <heverl> What encoder does totem use to display videos? In about it says gstreamer, is this the encoder?
[14:18] <oal> i_is_broke: gnome?
[14:18] <i_is_broke> heverl, i believe xen
[14:18] <i_is_broke> oal, yes.
[14:18] <pavanai> Diamodcite:nokia n73
[14:18] <Diamondcite> kaddi: Those things usually have more than 1 partition, don't see the other ones?
[14:18] <i_is_broke> oal, system, preferences, system settings.
[14:19] <heverl> i_is_broke, a video can't play in ffplay, mplayer, vlc. It just plays in totem. How can I use xen or gestreamer to convert it to mpeg? Any idea?
[14:19] <kaddi> Diamondcite: not automatically.. it must be hidden.. do you know how i could make them visible?
[14:19] <ao> mac is not very friendly to ubuntu
[14:19] <sacarlson> pyghassen: here's a document on how to set it up https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DynamicDNS
[14:19] <leviatan> diamondcite , i had servers with dreamule in ubuntu but i havent  servers with emule in windows , why?
[14:19] <Diamondcite> kaddi: Unfortunately I don't at the moment.
[14:19] <pavanai> Diamondcite:iam using nokia n73 as modem
[14:19] <i_is_broke> heverl, have you installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[14:19] <kaddi> Diamondcite: just check in /dev/by-path, the only thing showing up is: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  9 2010-12-25 15:07 pci-0000:00:1d.1-usb-0:1:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 -> ../../sr0
[14:19] <Ploozi> Well, it looks like I'll be using Ubuntu for the life of this notebook, my recovery CD's don't work anymore and the recovery partition has failed to be useful.
[14:19] <Diamondcite> pavanai: The iphone guides should work fine for you =P
[14:20] <leviatan> diamondcite, i use the last emule , why?
[14:20] <AnthonyCat> I want to set my mac partition's /Users/Anthony (mounted on ubuntu as /users/Anthony) as my home, but the mac partition does not automatically mount. How do I make it automatically mount? (it is not journaled and thus I have write access)
[14:20] <pavanai> u mean i better try i fon?
[14:20] <Diamondcite> pavanai: Did you install 'blueman' the bluetooth manager for ubuntu?

[14:21] <pavanai> Diamondcite:i connected my n 73 but ubuntu aint detect it as a modem
[14:22] <i_is_broke> heverl, it will probably have a symbol that looks like tools, close to the bottom of the list.
[14:22] <Diamondcite> pavanai: http://myn900.wordpress.com/2010/02/04/tethered-n900-to-ubuntu-9-10-via-bluetooth/   <--- does this one work?
[14:22] <Diamondcite> pavanai: Stranger question, have you ever thethers successfully before?
[14:22] <i_is_broke> heverl, i would see if there was an update or install the gstreamer codecs.
[14:22] <leviatan> diamondcite, ok , this will be temporary
[14:23] <pavanai> Diamondcite:thnx
[14:23] <i_is_broke> sorry heverl, oal.
[14:23] <heverl> i_is_broke, oal?

[14:23] <i_is_broke> heverl, sorry wrong person.
[14:23] <lastchance> so my usb doesn't save any my settings when shut down ?
[14:23] <Diamondcite> leviatan: Sometimes you just need a new list of servers, as old servers do go down occasionally.
[14:23] <pavanai> Diamondcite:its 4 n900
[14:24] <oal> i_is_broke: I must be blind :/
[14:24] <Diamondcite> pavanai: I don't have an N73, kind of difficult to help with it ^_^

[14:28] <random_ubuntuer> I'd have a small support question that actually concerns ubuntu server but might still be applicable here, didn't get a solution in #ubuntu-server
[14:28] <random_ubuntuer> I need to pass a boot argument to the install
[14:29] <random_ubuntuer> I understand that it can be done from the install menu but by then the computer has crashed
[14:29] <random_ubuntuer> I'm using pxe
[14:29] <rigved> random_ubuntuer: have you tried the alternate CD?
[14:29] <random_ubuntuer> And the computer I'm installing on needs the no-hlt instruction
[14:29] <kaddi> Hi, is anyone here on this fine day? :) I have a (intertronic) digital frame keyring, that mounts itself automatically as a CD-Rom on ubuntu and hence is unwritable. Does anyone know of a work around so I can put some pictures onto it?
[14:30] <random_ubuntuer> rigved, is there a alternative server install?
[14:30] <random_ubuntuer> in any case I'm not using files from cd but from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[14:31] <random_ubuntuer> which i just understood might not be the server files : P
[14:31] <random_ubuntuer> there's very little information on doing the net install of ubuntu server edition
[14:32] <leviatan> diamoncite,  I have used amule but no servers from version 2.6
[14:32] <leviatan> diamondcite,  I have used amule but no servers from version 2.6
[14:34] <Diamondcite> leviatan: 2.6 is important?
[14:34] <Diamondcite> leviatan: Are you getting your server list from http://gruk.org/server.met.gz
[14:35] <leviatan> diamondcite, i must use another version more old?
[14:35] <Diamondcite> leviatan: Possibly I don't know, backup your current list address somewhere first.
[14:36] <leviatan> diamondcite your link have errors in my mozilla
[14:37] <vesa1> I installed Ubuntu Notebook edition on my notebook and something just isn't right?! http://i.imgur.com/r6vXO.jpg any advice?
[14:38] <Diamondcite> leviatan: I.. just put that part in the Servers () box of amule..
[14:38] <BajK> any idea what causes the constant spitting of "atom bios in a loop for more than 1second" on shutdown?
[14:39] <JackomoLight> Hello everybody, my name is Jackomo.
[14:39] <Maucat> hehe
[14:39] <mongy> vesa1, disable compiz?
[14:39] <cak054> hi jack
[14:39] <vesa1> How can I do that? Especially since I can barely get to the GUI
[14:39] <userub156> ya
[14:39] <mongy> vesa1, what video chipset is your laptop
[14:39] <JackomoLight> Hi Cak054
[14:39] <BluesKaj> vesa1, if possible look in admin hardware and choose the recommended driver for your graphics card and install
[14:40] <vesa1> im trying to find that right now....
[14:40] <vesa1> how can i get to admin hardware?
[14:40] <vesa1> the screen is completely illegible from the get go
[14:40] <mongy> vesa1, could reboot in recovery mode and choose safe X mode
[14:41] <sacarlson> vesa1: maybe try <alt><ctl>+f1  that might get you out of graphic mode at least to a console
[14:41] <BluesKaj> vesa1, from you scrnshot I see that your panel is shgowing and seems accessible , look there
[14:41] <random_ubuntuer> can anyone direct me to any material concerning installing ubuntu server using pxe?
[14:41] <vesa1> mongy is there a way to do that during bootup
[14:41] <mongy> vesa1, that is during boot up..then you can see what you are doing and install the driver
[14:41] <vesa1> ok
[14:41] <mongy> vesa1, recovery mode, then you get a menu, choose safe X
[14:42] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I've installed with pxe before but not the server addition let me look
[14:42] <random_ubuntuer> thanks
[14:43] <kaddi> i'm still working on the keychain photo frame. This is the dmesg output: http://pastebin.com/4CK6pQf7 The last line says it detects a second full speed USB device after detecting the read only partition on the frame.. does that mean it sees the second partition and there may be a way of writing onto it?
[14:43] <totyko> j #ubuntu-es
[14:43] <random_ubuntuer> there are some netboot files on the 10.10 server cf but not placed so it could boot
[14:43] <luck> hello
[14:43] <leviatan> diamondcite, does not matter but emule is an application that works worse every day and amule more yet, that's my opinion
[14:43] <vesa1> mongy: th system boots right into the GUI, there's no way to choose recovery mode
[14:43] <random_ubuntuer> there aren't any pxeboot.* files in the root of the install
[14:44] <random_ubuntuer> I tried linking them but that just skrewed things up more : )
[14:44] <luck> any body here?
[14:44] <mongy> vesa1, hold shift
[14:44] <vesa1> ok
[14:44] <mongy> vesa1, before it starts to boot.. you get grub menu
[14:44] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I found this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer  it has a method to use the iso file so that's what I would do in your case
[14:44] <Ken24> which is the easiest way to convert the audio of a movie from ac3 to aac ?
[14:44] <mongy> someone remind what to change to do a do-release-upgrade for 10.04 server
[14:45] <random_ubuntuer> Isn't that the page for setting up a pxe server
[14:45] <mongy> from 10.04 to 10.10 I mean...
[14:45] <random_ubuntuer> not installing server edition using pxe : P
[14:45] <random_ubuntuer> oh
[14:45] <random_ubuntuer> I get your point
[14:45] <random_ubuntuer> I'll check
[14:45] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: yes that's what you need to do to install with pxe boot
[14:46] <random_ubuntuer> Yeah, I meant that I already have a functional pxe server but I just understood what you said about the iso file
[14:46] <vesa1> ok booting into recovery mode
[14:47] <sacarlson> vesa1: did the <alt><ctl>+f1 keys not get it going?
[14:47] <steensc> merry christmas everybody
[14:47] <random_ubuntuer> Hmm, that requires me to set up a local web server
[14:47] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: ya I recall that's what I did
[14:47] <random_ubuntuer> oh no, wait
[14:48] <random_ubuntuer> there's an option for tftpd too
[14:48] <random_ubuntuer> mount --bind /media/cdrom/install/netboot/ /var/lib/tftpboot/
[14:48] <ugmg> random_ubuntuer , pxe from windows
[14:48] <ugmg> ?
[14:48] <random_ubuntuer> I basically used this option by copying the folder contents but guess I'll have to write the configuration files as well
[14:49] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: well I have used many options,  I do vagly remember using iso in pxe,  but later setup a more permanent persistant version
[14:49] <random_ubuntuer> ugmg, no, linux laptop, the pxe already works, I have to add the right files now
[14:49] <vesa1> OK OK!
[14:49] <vesa1> thanks
[14:50] <random_ubuntuer> I hoped that I would not have to learn the insides of pxe boot but I guess I have to
[14:50] <yuanlinxie> hello
[14:51] <vesa1> my chipset is AMD M690E Chipset
[14:51] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I've had major problems with some versions of ubuntu with pxe boot that were missing files in initrd but I think they fixed that
[14:51] <vesa1> how do i install the display driver
[14:52] <mongy> vesa1, see if one exists.  system-admin-additional drivers
[14:52] <random_ubuntuer> yeah, well if i simply copy the contents of the install/netbook directory of ubuntu server cd, it searches for pxelinux.cfg and pxelinux.0 from the root of tftp directory but doesn't find them
[14:52] <BarbaraBush> Hello, i have discovered a "power saving" issue ubuntu 10.10 has
[14:52] <nirazio> Getting this error on update "W: GPG error: http://archive.canonical.com maverick Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:52] <random_ubuntuer> they're in tftp root /ubuntu-installer/i386/
[14:52] <BarbaraBush> when i run my netbook on battery it goes on power saving and the wifi starts lagging
[14:52] <random_ubuntuer> at least pxelinux.0 is
[14:52] <vesa1> mongy: "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system"
[14:52] <random_ubuntuer> but linking nor copying works
[14:53] <BarbaraBush> anyone know of a fix? or did i just find that bug?
[14:53] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: pastebin the pxelinux.cfg  and I'll take a look at it
[14:53] <random_ubuntuer> olright...
[14:53] <mongy> vesa1, hmm      lspci -vv | grep -i "VGA compatible controller"    ?

[14:54] <BarbaraBush> iwconfig should fix it
[14:54] <itaylor57> KM0201: o/
[14:54] <vesa1> ok considering im a newb to linux i type that from the command prompt?
[14:54] <mongy> yes
[14:54] <KM0201> itaylor57: o/
[14:55] <KM0201> nirazio: have you added a repository from somewhere
[14:55] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, ahh, there isn
[14:55] <random_ubuntuer> isn't a cfg file
[14:55] <krogers0001> i really love the ubuntu documentation
[14:55] <random_ubuntuer> the directory structure is like this: http://pastebin.com/sGvWLPTj
[14:55] <nirazio> KM0201: Yes but still no change
[14:56] <Sonax> Hi guys, I need some help here, i've installed ubuntu 10.10 (upgrading from 10.04) but i've got some weird bugs, like some windows going gray every few minutes even with the system in idle, someone know what can be causing that?
[14:56] <random_ubuntuer> I do have the netboot.tar.gz of the regular maveric install, perhaps I could copy the cfg from there
[14:56] <KM0201> !pastebin | nirazio pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and give me the link
[14:56] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: that apears to be the tftp part, what about the pxeboot config part
[14:56] <ugmg> random_ubuntuer,http://www.linuxreaders.com/2010/06/24/pxe-boot-ubuntu-10-04/

[14:58] <random_ubuntuer> sorry bot : )
[14:59] <random_ubuntuer> the dir from server cd lacks the pxelinux.cfg directory
[15:00] <random_ubuntuer> could I just copy the dir from regular install's netboot?
[15:00] <pc-casa> hola
[15:00] <pc-casa> perracas
[15:01] <KM0201> !es | pc-casa
[15:01] <pc-casa> welcome
[15:01] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: show me the link you used to setup you pxe server
[15:02] <random_ubuntuer> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[15:02] <random_ubuntuer> I'll disconnect for a sec and try, if I got it to work...
[15:04] <random_ubuntuer> okay, back
[15:05] <random_ubuntuer> what I did was to copy the pxelinux.cfg from regular install and link both the dir and pxelinux.0 to the root of tftpboot
[15:05] <random_ubuntuer> pxelinux.0/default is a link to ../boot-screens/syslinux.cfg
[15:05] <shipchik> привет
[15:05] <random_ubuntuer> I'm not familar with syslinux syntax but I tried to just add "no-hlt" to the end of the file
[15:06] <ilovefairuz> !ru | shipchik
[15:06] <random_ubuntuer> but it didn't work
[15:07] <BarbaraBush> anyone know where ubuntu 10.10 keeps it networking confs? and its not /etc/network/interfaces
[15:07] <random_ubuntuer> ah I see
[15:07] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: that link seems to be missing something,  I don't see a pxeboot server ever installed
[15:08] <random_ubuntuer> syslinux requires that I use the "append" option
[15:08] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, don't worry, I think I'm almost there
[15:08] <random_ubuntuer> syslinux is basically a boot loader, right?
[15:08] <vesa1> mongy: just type lspci -vv | grep -i "VGA compatible controller"  into the terminal windo verbatim?
[15:09] <mongy> vesa1,  exactly as I wrote.  lspci -vv | grep -i "VGA compatible controller"
[15:10] <random_ubuntuer> hmm, intresting
[15:10] <random_ubuntuer> basically the install menu is where the boot image is selected
[15:10] <random_ubuntuer> and where I could add boot arguments
[15:10] <BluesKaj> sacarlson, what is the purpose of a pxe boot server ? I 've been doing some research even wikis but it doesn't seem to be explained in a clear manner.
[15:10] <random_ubuntuer> but by then the machine is already crashed
[15:10] <vesa1> mongy: nothing happens
[15:11] <mongy> lspci -vv | grep -i vga
[15:11] <random_ubuntuer> BluesKaj, pxe server allows booting over ethernet
[15:11] <mongy> I guess I was using my own system for example..nvm
[15:11] <eichi> ich bekomm extrem oft bei ubunu/xubuntu bei älteren rechnern beim starten der livecd den fehler, dass sich irgendwas nicht mounten lässt /dev/sr0 oder so
[15:12] <vesa1> it lists a bunch of things?
[15:12] <psycho_oreos> !de| eichi
[15:12] <sacarlson> BluesKaj: it's been a while so maybe the tftp server is the pxeboot server?  I'm researching also,  I haven't had it installed in some time
[15:12] <Ryu_Kurisu> What? eici, English please :)
[15:12] <ZykoticK9> vesa1, mongy i the the exact same output using "lspci | grep -i vga" as your much long command
[15:13] <mongy> ZykoticK9, im not perfect :)
[15:13] <BluesKaj> random_ubuntuer, do you mean other pcs on a lan or remotely from the internet?
[15:13] <eichi> oh sorry. on many ubuntu and xubuntu installations I get the error "cant mount device /dev/sr0" or something like that
[15:13] <eichi> seems to be a common problem on many systems
[15:13] <random_ubuntuer> lan usually
[15:13] <ZykoticK9> mongy, i wouldn't worry about it - no one is ;)
[15:13] <ugmg> blueskaj, install from one pc to other one or many pc
[15:13] <enc_> Hi, can someone explain me what this line does?: apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5
[15:13] <random_ubuntuer> For example I can install linux on computers that do not have a cd rom nor can boot from usb disks
[15:13] <vesa1> can i just set up linux to boot without the fancy menus (as it does in safemode) all the time?
[15:14] <ugmg> enc_, install multiple lib using one line
[15:14] <enc_> ugmg, but i need to download the libs first?
[15:15] <slim_charles> Can you do MEMTEST with ubuntu 10.10 from live cd like older version?
[15:15] <random_ubuntuer> enc_,  no, it downloads and installs
[15:15] <ugmg> right
[15:15] <ugmg> :)
[15:15] <enc_> but it does not wor , run or install anything? am i missing something?
[15:15] <ugmg> any error
[15:16] <Guest56054> Installs a Apache a Webserver with PHP a scripting language and the module to use it via apache , ugmg
[15:16] <lahwran> bug in the ubuntu installer that I'm too lazy to make a bug report for: if you put capital letters in the username, it will grey out "forward" without helpful information to tell first time users what they did wrong
[15:17] <slim_charles> does any one know?
[15:17] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: now it's coming back to me what does your file here look like? /var/lib/tftpboot
[15:17] <slim_charles> im sure previous ubuntu live cds
[15:17] <slim_charles> had the option to run memtest
[15:17] <enc_> ugmg, failed with return code 100 and error message, E: Unmet dependencies. Try.....
[15:17] <slim_charles> does 10.10 have it?
[15:17] <BarbaraBush> dang cant find a way to disable powersaving on my wirless nic :(
[15:18] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, it contains pxelinux.cfg/, ubuntu-installer, pxelinux.0 and version.info... pxelinux.cfg and pxelinux.0 I copied from the regular install
[15:18] <random_ubuntuer> rest of the files are from server edition cd
[15:18] <BarbaraBush> kinda leaves ubuntu b0rked on netbooks /laptops ;/
[15:18] <enc_> ugmg, http://paste.ubuntu.com/547506/
[15:18] <random_ubuntuer> I finally understood that I can add boot arguments in the syslinux configuration file
[15:18] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: ok so lets take a look at that pxelinux.cfg there pastebin that
[15:19] <random_ubuntuer> it's a link to ./ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg/
[15:19] <random_ubuntuer> which contains file "default"
[15:19] <random_ubuntuer> these are what I copied from another install
[15:20] <random_ubuntuer> default itself refers to ../boot-screens/syslinux.cfg
[15:20] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: well in the iso method I think they replace that with there stuf
[15:20] <random_ubuntuer> with which I'm currently playing around
[15:20] <random_ubuntuer> yeah, it refers to another file which exists on the server edition cd
[15:20] <random_ubuntuer> configuration file for syslinux
[15:21] <random_ubuntuer> but what I'm trying to do, is add a boot argument but if the problem already rises before syslinux loads anything, then what I'm doing isn't helping
[15:21] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: does it get that far in your boot you get the menu?  I had mine setup so I could pxe boot different system with a menu
[15:21] <random_ubuntuer> yeah, I get to the menu
[15:22] <random_ubuntuer> but then it crashes as well
[15:22] <random_ubuntuer> that's what I'm trying to solve
[15:22] <random_ubuntuer> I suspected that a certain boot argument could stop the crash
[15:22] <random_ubuntuer> but I realised that the crash happens before any image is booted
[15:22] <random_ubuntuer> during syslinux
[15:23] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: it just crashed with no error message or number?
[15:23] <random_ubuntuer> yeah
[15:23] <random_ubuntuer> the menu comes up and then no response
[15:23] <enc_> If i run this line: apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5 I get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/547506/ Any advice?
[15:24] <random_ubuntuer> no ctrl+alt+del, no ctrl+alt+f1-12, nothing
[15:24] <random_ubuntuer> the server currently had slackware installed
[15:24] <random_ubuntuer> and that crashed at "checking halt"
[15:24] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: well the tftp is setup correct,  I did have problems with some version as stated,  maybe just try install something that we see people have already done then go back and try your version
[15:24] <random_ubuntuer> which was solved by the "no-hlt" boot argument
[15:25] <ZykoticK9> enc_, have you tried running "apt-get -f install"?
[15:25] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I'll have to go back to a system that is no longer running and see the files I had there now that I now were to look
[15:26] <enc_> ZykoticK9, no, what does it do?
[15:26] <random_ubuntuer> the setup also crashes if I just use all files from vanilla's netboot.tar.gz
[15:26] <ZykoticK9> enc_, it tried to Fix installs
[15:26] <Ryu_Kurisu> apt-get -f? What does that ZykoticK9?
[15:26] <random_ubuntuer> force probablt
[15:26] <random_ubuntuer> probably
[15:26] <ZykoticK9> Ryu_Kurisu, it is -f for fix
[15:26] <quiescens> fix
[15:27] <Ryu_Kurisu> Ow, like reinstall?
[15:27] <Ryu_Kurisu> Or only try to fix?
[15:27] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, I don't think this thing as that much to do with the pxe setup as much as the syslinux phase
[15:28] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: yes that's where I had the missing drivers I had to pull one from another version to get a newer one to boot
[15:28] <random_ubuntuer> hmm, intresting
[15:28] <BarbaraBush> anyone know where ubuntu 10.10 keeps it networking confs? and its not /etc/network/interfaces
[15:28] <random_ubuntuer> I'll check the syslinux configuration files for a sec and see if I can meddle with them
[15:28] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: this file /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0  I had to replace
[15:29] <random_ubuntuer> yeah, I got it from regular ubuntu netinstall
[15:29] <random_ubuntuer> as well as pxelinux.cfg
[15:29] <enc_> ZykoticK9, apt-get -f install kinda like freezes and disconnects me from server, im trying to do it remotely
[15:29] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: try pull it from 10.10 since it seems people are using it
[15:30] <rockworldmi> why gnome-shell has minimizing icons in activities ???
[15:30] <random_ubuntuer> I got it from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ so it is from 10.10
[15:30] <ZykoticK9> enc_, sorry i have no idea, best of luck.
[15:31] <enc_> ZykoticK9, thank you
[15:31] <random_ubuntuer> I understand how I can add boot options using syslinux
[15:31] <random_ubuntuer> but the crash happens before any boot, at the syslinux menu
[15:31] <random_ubuntuer> you said you had to replace some drivers, where does syslinux select the driver?
[15:32] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: ok well that must be good then,  it could be that the network device on your boot computer doesn't have a driver in that pxelinux.0 file,  did you try boot another system pxeboot?
[15:32] <random_ubuntuer> ahh, not, I didn't mean network driver, I was thinking of video drivers
[15:32] <random_ubuntuer> the network part works, it seems
[15:32] <random_ubuntuer> the rest doesn't seem to
[15:33] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: oh it boots into grub?
[15:33] <danielc1234> I all, just installed Ubuntu...I can ping, but will not allow me to update or install any software. Telnet is working fine. Any ideas?
[15:33] <random_ubuntuer> the install cd doesn't use grub, it uses syslinux
[15:33] <random_ubuntuer> and that's where it boots
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> do I get the following correctly:
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> the install cd boots
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> and runs syslinux
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> which is the menu where the install/command-line install/advanced options/help options are
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> and then, according to which is chosen, it boots the actual linux kernel image
[15:34] <random_ubuntuer> right?
 you can at least update the packages?
[15:35] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer:  oh I forgot I can test it with virtualbox too,  you can also test your pxeboot with virtualbox
[15:36] <danielc1234> Sonax: no, not using apt-get update
[15:36] <BarbaraBush> anyone know where ubuntu 10.10 keeps it networking confs? and its not /etc/network/interfaces
[15:36] <random_ubuntuer> hmm, that's an idea
[15:36] <random_ubuntuer> that way I cound see, if the problems happens because of the server hardware or my configuration
[15:36] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: if the probem is only with your laptop you are working to install then your pxeboot server should still work with virtualbox to simulate another system that boots from your server
[15:36] <danielc1234> Sonax: I keep getting....W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick-security/universe/i18n/Translation-en.bz2  Unable to connect to web2.myserver.com:80:
[15:37] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, yeah, I'll have to configura virtualbox to be on the same network as host machine however
[15:37] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: with virtualbox I can also duplicate what you did and test it
[15:37] <random_ubuntuer> haven't done that before
[15:37] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I have
[15:38] <random_ubuntuer> alright, I installed virtualbox again, let
[15:38] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: just setup the boot sequence in the virtualbox to boot net
[15:38] <random_ubuntuer> let's see what happens
[15:38] <random_ubuntuer> okay
[15:39] <dawid> wedel
[15:39] <danielc1234> Sonax: any ideas?
[15:41] <wedel> hello
[15:42] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, from where can I set the boot sequence?
[15:42] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: let me look
[15:42] <random_ubuntuer> ahh, from the first run wizard it seems
[15:43] <random_ubuntuer> it requires media for installation
[15:43] <random_ubuntuer> wonder if I can use network as media : P
[15:43] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: under system boot order
[15:44] <random_ubuntuer> where's that
[15:44] <random_ubuntuer> ahh, saw from the screenshot
[15:44] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: are you running virtuabox gui?  oh ok
[15:44] <Fire> hello
[15:45] <random_ubuntuer> hehe, I could also just boot without inserting media and select boot options then
[15:45] <random_ubuntuer> FATAL: could not read from the boot medium
[15:45] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I have the disks in that system empty
[15:45] <random_ubuntuer> I guess I'll have to disconnect from net again and set the system up for booting
[15:45] <random_ubuntuer> the question is then, are my host computer and virtualized computer on the same lan currently?
[15:46] <ManDay> Has anyone here got a AVM-FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick to work?
[15:46] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I also have cd and hd uncheck so they will never try to boot from them
[15:47] <Fire> Guys, is that true? Does ubuntu.com redirect to the appropriate-language site? http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/26741/
[15:47] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, I'll disconnect for a sec and try
[15:47] <cazandobits> hi is there any channel for Xubuntu (I'd like it in spanish)
[15:47] <wwwyzzerdd> question: i'm experiencing sudden shutdowns in 10.10, usually while watching longer flash videos (sc2 replays on youtube). what could this be?
[15:47] <AbhiJit> do i need to worry if my cpu usage goes to 100% very frequently?
[15:47] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: ok
[15:47] <cazandobits> hi is there any channel for Xubuntu (I'd like it in spanish)????
[15:47] <AbhiJit> cazandobits, #xubuntu
[15:48] <sonberry> }polite ac ac
[15:48] <AbhiJit> do i need to worry if my cpu usage goes to 100% very frequently?
[15:49] <sresu> I'd like to know the details of Jolicloud installation as dual boot. Where in documentation I can find this?
[15:50] <Ryu_Kurisu> You could try #xubuntu-es
[15:51] <Fire> hello?
[15:51] <ManDay> Has anyone here got a AVM-FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick to work?
[15:51] <random_ubuntuer> sacarlson, I still can't get the virt machine to boot from the host
[15:52] <itaylor57> !ask | Fire
[15:52] <random_ubuntuer> virtualbox runs its own dhcp server on the host-only local net?
[15:52] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I"m still seting up my tftp
[15:52] <random_ubuntuer> how can I make the virtualbox slaves to use a dhcp server on the host machine
[15:52] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: I've just modifited /etc/default/tftp-htp file
[15:53] <random_ubuntuer> it almost seems simpler to create another virtual machine for running the boot server : D
[15:53] <random_ubuntuer> want me to tar my tftp setup up and send it to you?
[15:53] <KM0201> random_ubuntuer: thats actually not to bad an idea
[15:53] <sresu> random_ubuntuer: It would be better to try #vbox first
[15:54] <random_ubuntuer> sresu, I'll try
[15:54] <random_ubuntuer> wow, this problem really is gettin out of proportion : P
[15:54] <sresu> I mean to try asking in that channel
[15:55] <random_ubuntuer> trying to install a server and now I'm searching virtual computer network management
[15:55] <random_ubuntuer> sresu, I know, just rambling : P
[15:55] <Cerealklr> Heya! Quick question. I was trying to get some extra function keys to work on my new keyboard (a Microsoft Sidewinder X4) and dropped into the Keyboard Shortcuts preferences window. When I tried to set a shortcut and found that Ubuntu did not see the extra function keys being pressed, I hit ctrl+Z to undo adding the custom shortcut (stupid, I know, but it is habit). I can't seem to figure out how to reset the undo shortcut... Any id
[15:55] <Cerealklr> eas?
[15:55] <sacarlson> random_ubuntuer: maybe we should go private this is not ubuntu releated
[15:56] <Ryu_Kurisu> sacarlson: I think it is ;)
[15:57] <random_ubuntuer> If I get a solution that works, I'll be happy to scream it from the rooftops : P
[15:57] <OrigamiZoo> anybody have experience with the installer not working, and looking to help a poor soul? :)
[15:57] <random_ubuntuer> yeah, I do, but we probably have different problems : D
[15:57] <rikycaldeira> hello, is there anyone available to help me with partition problems when installing ubuntu_
[15:57] <rikycaldeira> ?
[15:57] <shawnti> just ask
[15:57] <rikycaldeira> k
[15:58] <juniour> rikyalderia
[15:58] <juniour> ?
[15:58] <OrigamiZoo> when trying to install, the installer hangs at the "preparing ubuntu for install" windows, and doesn't progress
[15:58] <pavanai> cant install d bus coz of expat.h
[15:58] <rigved> sacarlson, random_ubuntuer: also, others (like me) also like to find out what you have been able to accomplish.
[15:58] <nastas> rikycaldeira: just shoot the question
[15:58] <pavanai> help!!!
[15:59] <rigved> sacarlson: btw, tab now works with your name :P
[15:59] <AbhiJit> do i need to worry if my cpu usage goes to 100% very frequently?
[15:59] <juniour> origamizoo u r installin through wubi or directlly
[15:59] <Cerealklr> Any clue how to change the keyboard shortcut for undo in Maverick?
[15:59] <random_ubuntuer> rigved, I'll be sure to tell everyone here as well, if we get a solution but high traffic dialog suits better in private chat
[16:00] <random_ubuntuer> If anyone has ideas however, feel free to shout them out
[16:00] <rigved> random_ubuntuer: :)
[16:00] <Ryu_Kurisu> Cerealklr: Keyboard Shortcuts?
[16:00] <OrigamiZoo> directly, and i have tried multiple flavors (mint, xu, 32, 64) and also the alternate for ubuntu
[16:00] <rikycaldeira> i got a new pc with windows 7, now i want to dual-boot. i partitioned the disk in windows disk manager to get some space for ubuntu. when i try to install ubuntu and see the partition table, the partition I previously set appears merged with trhe recover partition and not as free space. is there a way to force it to be separated from the recover partition (which I dont wanna lose..)
[16:00] <Cerealklr> Ryu_Kurisu: I checked and did not see an entry for Undo. That is where I managed to mess it up in the first place.
[16:01] <alfred_> hi, how long it takes to install ubuntu when it asks the user and password ?
[16:01] <alfred_> it looks like installation stuck somewhere
[16:01] <juniour> rikycalderia u can do dual boot via wubi k
[16:01] <juniour>  try it
[16:01] <Ryu_Kurisu> Well...prolly you can make undo work again by changing the shortcut assigned to Ctrl+Z  Cerealklr
[16:02] <rikycaldeira> by running the live cd in windows_
[16:02] <rikycaldeira> ?
[16:02] <alfred_> no running ubuntu CD
[16:02] <juniour> put iso and wubi n one folder and click on wubi installion will start
[16:02] <Cerealklr> Ryu_Kurisu: Tried it! No such luck! That is the only custom shortcut i've assigned though. Is there at least a way to reset to default?
[16:02] <alfred_> in new full HDD installation
[16:02] <OrigamiZoo> i thought wubi just installed it into windows... skipping the partitioning issues, but giving poorer results
[16:02] <rikycaldeira> hm, ok
[16:02] <rikycaldeira> ill try it
[16:02] <rikycaldeira> thank you
[16:02] <juniour> k
[16:02] <rigved> rikycaldeira: are you able to see the different partitions in windows?
[16:03] <nastas> rikycaldeira: the format of the partitions?
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> i can see up to 4 partitions
[16:03] <juniour> origamzoo wt the result ru getting
[16:03] <juniour> ?
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> 1 labeled system
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> the other with boot stuff
[16:03] <nastas> rikycaldeira: all of them ntfs?
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> the big one
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> and the recover
[16:03] <rigved> rikycaldeira: in windows?
[16:03] <rikycaldeira> yes, all them ntfs
[16:03] <OrigamiZoo> nothing, just hangs
[16:04] <rikycaldeira> in windows i can see all the partitions, including thje one i want to install ubuntu
[16:04] <basajaun> 1 audio cd ejected but phantom image of files still there when new audio cd inserted
[16:04] <OrigamiZoo> theres your prob ricky, linux doesn't use ntfs
[16:04] <juniour> u have put wubi and iso in same folder
[16:04] <Cerealklr> Ryu_Kurisu: I added a custom shortcut to launch synapse. I attempted to asign it to a special function key but Ubuntu didn't notice it. I guess I was too used to programming and tried to ctrl+Z out of the keycode capture, which naturally assigned that as the shortcut to launch synapse. I figured out backspace revoked shortcuts, but undo still does nothing.
[16:04] <rigved> rikycaldeira: if you can see the different partitions in windows, then format the free space as ntfs. then use it ubuntu by re-formatting it to ext4
[16:04] <nastas> rikycaldeira: in ubuntu what are you seeing?
[16:04] <OrigamiZoo> if you want linux on on of the parts. format it with a ext3 or 4 filesystem
[16:04] <rikycaldeira> in windows, i ve freed the space
[16:05] <juniour> origamizoo u have put wubi nad iso in same folder
[16:05] <Diamondcite> rikycaldeira: The ubuntu installer can see windows, and it can either split the windows parition for you, or let you chose how to do it.
[16:05] <rikycaldeira> but on ubuntu it still appears as ntfs and merged with the recover partition
[16:05] <pavanai> d bus configure error could not find expat.h
[16:05] <OrigamiZoo> juniour: not using wubi
[16:05] <Musashi0011> When creating a bootable USB stick for ubuntu 10.10 using os x is adding grub or lilo required?
[16:05] <pavanai> sombdy hlp!!
[16:05] <rigved> rikycaldeira: use widows to partition the free space as ntfs. then in the ubuntu installer, format this ntfs as ext4
[16:05] <vili> I got a external HD and it refuses to mount on both my laptop and desktop, it doesn't show up in fdisk -k
[16:06] <vili> dmesg only shows this when it's plugged in
[16:06] <juniour> origamizoo u r installing in window or booting thriugh cd
[16:06] <rigved> rikycaldeira: ^^
[16:06] <vili> [ 1185.610093] usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[16:06] <rikycaldeira> rigved: thats what i tried to do, but the free space appears merged with the recover partition
[16:06] <vili> Any ideas what could be wrong?
[16:06] <Ryu_Kurisu> Cerealklr: Just remove the custom shortcut, there is a shortcut binding setting inside Synapse I believe
[16:06] <vili> fdisk -l*
[16:06] <rigved> rikycaldeira: did you format is as a logical partition?
[16:06] <OrigamiZoo> juniour: through the cd
[16:06] <juniour> k
[16:06] <OrigamiZoo> juniour: usb technically
[16:06] <rigved> rikycaldeira: *it ^^
[16:07] <juniour> k
[16:07] <rikycaldeira> rigved: free space =/
[16:07] <juniour> u have install the software for usb
[16:07] <OrigamiZoo> it is
[16:07] <juniour> from ubuntu site
[16:07] <OrigamiZoo> i can run the livecd just fine
[16:07] <juniour> k
[16:08] <rigved> rikycaldeira: format it as a "primary" ntfs partition in windows. then use that in ubuntu by re-formatting
[16:09] <rikycaldeira> rigved: ill try it again then. maybe try a third party application to do the partitioning
[16:09] <rigved> rikycaldeira: ok. :)
[16:09] <OrigamiZoo> riky, can you boot into the livecd?
[16:09] <rikycaldeira> i AM using the live cd
[16:09] <rikycaldeira> ;p
[16:09] <murali> hi
[16:10] <rigved> rikycaldeira: also, make sure that you do not have more than 4 partitions (i'm guessing that you already have 3 partitions. 2 for win7 and one for recovery)
[16:10] <rikycaldeira> i have more thgan 4
[16:10] <lotus> hey, I just paired my bluetooth headset with my netbook and I'm trying to figure out how to get the audio to route over to the headset.  Any ideas?
[16:10] <rikycaldeira> i guess thats the problem
[16:10] <OrigamiZoo> are they primarys?
[16:10] <Maahes> this has had to have happened to someone else, but I can't find anything online about it: I accidentally upgraded the kernel on the live USB, which doesn't actually upgrade because it's read only, so now I have a new kernel I can't get rid of, and every apt install / remove action results in it re-trying to configure the new kernel. I tried removing the kernel through synaptic but it can't remove it because of the initrd configuratio
[16:10] <rikycaldeira> the computer came by itself with 4 partitions
[16:10] <rigved> rikycaldeira: windows does not allow more than 4 primary partitions
[16:11] <breadcrumb> hi
[16:11] <SwedeMike> lotus: go into audio settings, the headset should be seen there.
[16:11] <rikycaldeira> :O
[16:11] <SwedeMike> lotus: system->preferences->sound
[16:11] <OrigamiZoo> so you need to make your new partitions a logical, then split that up
[16:11] <rigved> rikycaldeira: use third-party software to partition
[16:11] <Maahes> =\
[16:11] <OrigamiZoo> you can have more than four, but one needs to be a logical partition
[16:13] <danielc1234> Hi All!! Need a little help. Just did a fresh install, can ping and telnet out, but when I try to update or install I get Unable to connect error, even though I can ping the server.
[16:13] <Musashi0011> has anyone else created a usb boot disk for PC's from a mac?
[16:13] <Musashi0011> Is grub or lilo required?
[16:13] <danielc1234> the unable to connect error is to the name of the server that I just set up.
[16:14] <tuggle> hi, does anyone know whether the XTS mode is available for loop-aes or whether it is even neccessary?
[16:14] <siddhion> does anyone her use 'screen'?
[16:15] <Maahes> siddhion: plenty probably, just ask the question
[16:15] <lotus> SwedeMike: I'm actually running crunchbang, what's the name of that GUI tool so that I may invoke it via commandline?
[16:15] <rigved> danielc1234: try to use another server. like the main server
[16:15] <kongk> Hi, can someone give me an answer concerning Lanchpad translations?
[16:16] <IdleOne> !crunchbang | lotus
[16:16] <IdleOne> kongk: what was the question?
[16:16] <danielc1234> rigved: well it is the main server I thought. This is what it asked for during setup.
[16:16] <rigved> kongk: maybe someone might but you also want to ask in #launchpad
[16:16] <Maahes> Okay new question: Any way to tell synaptic that a partially configured package is no longer partially configured?
[16:16] <siddhion> When I split the terminal window in screen via ^C S How do I get into that new part?
[16:17] <rigved> danielc1234: if it is the main server that you are using, then use a local server, one which is available in your country
[16:17] <kongk> I'translating Glippy and is it so that the in line «_Upload» the underscore indicates a shortcut?
[16:17] <danielc1234> rigved: I'm not thinking that is the problem, cause I can ping or telnet to what I am trying to connect to.
[16:18] <wolfpack> hi guys, i was trying to install real player in ubuntu 10.04  using the deb in this link  "  http://www.real.com/realplayer/download ". After double clicking the deb link , I got this error "Cannot install lsb"..........
[16:18] <Maahes> siddhion: C-a Tab
[16:18] <danielc1234> rigved: which is http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick-security/universe/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2
[16:18] <danielc1234> no problem pinging it.
[16:18] <IdleOne> kongk: #launchpad might be a better place to ask, I am not sure what the underscore indicates.
[16:18] <kongk> Idleone: OK. thanks!
[16:19] <rigved> danielc1234: do you use a router? is that blocking the port which is used to update? (not sure if this port is different from the port used by telnet)
[16:19] <basajaun> 1 auddio cd inserted , mounts , content appear in fine manager, eject , new cd, open in file manager only content of  previous cd, cant get rid of phantom  image Help?
[16:19] <deww> wolfpack: i am pretty sure something like vlc can play real media files.
[16:20] <danielc1234> rigved: then I dont think ping would work as well. Very strange
[16:20] <wolfpack> deww ...i tried it but it could not
[16:20] <IdleOne> basajaun: try ctrl-r to reload
[16:20] <shawnti> hey folks, im searching for a nice tool like netsat but with gui, which shows me incomming and outgoing connections, any suggestions?
[16:20] <danielc1234> rigved: and in the confi files, it has the right settings.
[16:20] <rigved> danielc1234: yes it's strange. but afaik ping does not use any port. google that
[16:21] <OrigamiZoo> yes it does
[16:21] <shawnti> could manage it with whireshark, but thats way to much. just need a tiny app
[16:21] <Maahes> Okay new question: Any way to tell synaptic that a partially configured package is no longer partially configured?
[16:21] <OrigamiZoo> ubuntu has a built in toolbar applet that does that
[16:22] <popey> Maahes: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[16:22] <IdleOne> Maahes: sudo apt-get update maybe

[16:22] <deww> wolfpack: i just tested something form real.com, you are right. oh well. dead format. (rmvb files play file tho)
[16:23] <popey> wolfpack: why would you want to install realplayer?
[16:23] <rigved> danielc1234: you'll find many such posts on google. :)
[16:23] <Maahes> popey: that doesn't work, this is a weird bug having to do with a kernel image trying to configure itself on a read only /boot
[16:23] <IdleOne> install VLC and profit
[16:23] <wolfpack> popey ...to run rm format files
[16:23] <endeavormac> does anyone have starcraft2 working in wine?
[16:23] <popey> wolfpack: mplayer?
[16:23] <rigved> danielc1234: ping uses icmp and uses no ports. :)
[16:23] <IdleOne> endeavormac: ##winehq
[16:23] <popey> Maahes: why is /boot readonly?
[16:23] <KM0201> IdleOne: lol, you had me looking for a package called profit
[16:23] <Maahes> popey: because this is a persistent liveusb
[16:23] <KM0201> now i see what you meant
[16:24] <IdleOne> KM0201: haha
[16:24] <KM0201> :()
[16:24] <endeavormac> IdleOne: ok thanks
[16:24] <popey> Maahes: i have never had a read only /boot on a usb stick, sorry. I don't keep /boot separate from / ever
[16:24] <rigved> danielc1234: just check if any ports are blocked that are needed. do you have any other OS that you can test in this network?
[16:24] <wolfpack> popey i tried it on movie player and vlc player ........both shwd negative results
[16:24] <popey> wolfpack: missing a codec probably?
[16:24] <basajaun> nothing
[16:25] <IdleOne> wolfpack: do you have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed
[16:25] <basajaun> still the samr
[16:25] <popey> wolfpack: installed the w32codecs pack from medibuntu?
[16:25] <wolfpack> popey   which codec is missing
[16:25] <IdleOne> ubuntu-restricted-extras should cover everything you need
[16:25] <popey> wolfpack: also as IdleOne suggests, ensure ubuntu-restricted-extras is installed too
[16:25] <siddhion> How come I do not see the 'Upgrade to 10.10' button in Update Manager after pressing Check, Install Updates and then Check again?
[16:25] <wolfpack> popey how to chk whether a package is installed
[16:26] <popey> siddhion: LTS to LTS is the default, not LTS to non-LTS upgrades
[16:26] <IdleOne> apt-cacher policy packagename
[16:26] <MrBoss> who has a paypal account?
[16:26] <IdleOne> apt-cache policy packagename
[16:26] <popey> wolfpack: dpkg -l <packagename>
[16:26] <IdleOne> that too ^
[16:26] <itaylor57> wolfpack: once you get the missing packages you should be able to run realplayer
[16:26] <Chuck_> good Morning Christmas peeps....
[16:26] <Maahes> popey: the way the hybrid kernel in a live usb works is that part of it is stored on the read only iso mirror, and basically simlinked to /boot. You cannot install kernels over it
[16:26] <siddhion> Also when I go to System > About Ubuntu it says I'm in 10.04 LTS....
[16:26] <deww> wolfpack: this might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RealPlayerInstallationMethods#Install%20%27%27realplayer%27%27%20from%20the%20Repositories
[16:26] <popey> Maahes: eww.
[16:26] <MrBoss> who has a paypal account?
[16:27] <siddhion> popey, what is the difference between LTS and non-LTS and is 10.10 exclusively non-LTS?
[16:27] <IdleOne> siddhion: you need to go into Software Sources and change from LTS only to Regular Releases
[16:27] <popey> !upgrade | siddhion
[16:27] <popey> that page explains it
[16:27] <IdleOne> !lts | siddhion
[16:27] <cousteau> how can I enable multiple X sessions for the same user?
[16:27] <wolfpack> @all i will chk ur suggstions one by one ....thanks ...will BRB   :)
[16:27] <popey> cousteau: xnest ?
[16:27] <siddhion> thanks IdleOne  and popey
[16:27] <cousteau> popey, it was done on the Access screen dialog before
[16:27] <IdleOne> sure thing
[16:28] <KM0201> siddhion: really unless you're in an enterprise environment, you're probably better off keeping w/ current versions, unless you have some need for LTS
[16:28] <Chuck_> Anyone out there that mgh know how to specify the radeon hd driver versus the radeon driver?
[16:28]  * BarbaraBush now has a temp fix for his wireless issue where wifi lags on battery
[16:28] <BarbaraBush> 10 meters long extender to the adapter
[16:28] <basajaun> IdleOne,  no change
[16:28] <IdleOne> KM0201: LTS is current and provides a more stable environment, you know all this already.
[16:29] <siddhion> KM0201, no I am a solo developer.
[16:29] <BarbaraBush> i just wonder what do do when i go outside hehe
[16:29] <BarbaraBush> cant like drag a 10km wire with me :P
[16:29] <IdleOne> basajaun: put the first cd back in and then right click and click on safely remove
[16:29] <rigved> siddhion: also, if you do not the hassle of upgrading ubuntu versions frequently, go fot LTS; as you must have guessed by now ;)
[16:29] <KM0201> IdleOne: i know... i just see more benefit in staying w/ the current release.. but... if you're someoe who wants to install an OS, and wait 3yrs, and then install/upgrade (ala, MS).. it's no big deal... I personally don't mind the upgrade/reinstall every 6mo
[16:29] <popey> BarbaraBush: there's a temp fix in the bug report about it
[16:29] <alfred_> I can t install ubuntu, it stack somewhere where it say ready when you are ! any help ?
[16:29] <basajaun> safely remove not listed
[16:30] <BarbaraBush> popey: what is it?
[16:30] <IdleOne> basajaun: what is listed?
[16:30] <rigved> siddhion: *for ^^
[16:30] <popey> bug 651008 BarbaraBush
[16:30] <BarbaraBush> all i need is power saving disabled for wifi
[16:30] <siddhion> rigved, if I do not what?
[16:30] <basajaun> eject
[16:30] <BarbaraBush> ty popey
[16:30] <popey> np
[16:30] <basajaun> IdleOne,  eject
[16:30] <cousteau> on previous versions, it was possible to enable multiple logins for the same user, so the same user could have several sessions open at the same time, one on Ctrl-Alt-F7, another one on Ctrl-Alt-F8, etc
[16:30] <popey> BarbaraBush: i have an affected machine too
[16:30] <IdleOne> basajaun: is there unmount?
[16:30] <basajaun> no IdleOne
[16:31] <IdleOne> basajaun: what version of Ubuntu?
[16:31] <siddhion> rigved, oh i see. if i do not want the hassle of upgrading then i should stay with LTS
[16:31] <suraj> anybody here know how to make .deb file from package manager?
[16:31] <Quantum_Ion> 10.04
[16:31] <siddhion> well is upgrading really a hassle?
[16:31] <Quantum_Ion> siddhion, yup
[16:31] <yoyoned> suraj: what are you trying to do
[16:31] <basajaun> using openbox on 10.4 IdleOne
[16:31] <rigved> siddhion: if you do not want to go through of upgrading ubuntu versions too frequently, then go for LTS
[16:31] <Quantum_Ion> Upgrade for new features
[16:31] <KM0201> suraj: you mean from a program you've compiled from source, or from a package thats in the repositories
[16:31] <IdleOne> siddhion: no, it's very simple really. see the link popey gave you earlier
[16:31] <siddhion> Quantum_Ion, really, what is so hard about it?
[16:31] <ilovefairuz> siddhion: i use LTS for both production and development machines that i manage,  feel free to use the non-LTS versions unless  you don't mind reinstalling the whole machine and reconfiguring everything back, in-place upgrading is almost always problematic
[16:32] <Quantum_Ion> siddhion, you have to make backups and reinstall a new system
[16:32] <ilovefairuz> siddhion:  s/unless/if
[16:32] <jose> hi, i install lighttpd, phpmyadmin and mysql on ubuntu but i can't load phpmyadmin (403 - Forbidden)
[16:32] <rigved> siddhion: because upgrade, as compared to fresh install, frequently has more problems (not a general rule)
[16:32] <IdleOne> basajaun: hmm, I don't use openpox, not sure what the menu looks like.
[16:32] <Quantum_Ion> I might not make a new install until 11.04 Ubuntu Linux
[16:32] <suraj> i want to make .deb from program i have complied
[16:32] <ilovefairuz> suraj: checkinstall
[16:32] <ilovefairuz> !compile | suraj
[16:33] <IdleOne> !checkinstall
[16:33] <siddhion> Quantum_Ion, ilovefairuz rigved  ok interesting. i think i will stay with LTS
[16:33] <suraj> how  to use checkinstall
[16:33] <KM0201> suraj: i think that requires you run -- check install
[16:33] <basajaun> IdleOne,  it behave as if the first disk wa still mounted
[16:33] <BajK> is it just me oir is this "ubuntu" font just ugly?
[16:33] <IdleOne> basajaun: umount from command line perhaps
[16:33] <BarbaraBush> popey: i found it listed there, but how do i get to it?
[16:33] <rigved> suraj: use the link given to understand it ^^
[16:33] <Steve973> Hi.  I currently use subsonic but i was wondering what everyone's favorite streaming media server package is.
[16:33] <siddhion> yeah it doesn't even seem there are critical advances in 10.10 upon first glace
[16:33] <KM0201> IdleOne: can you run checkinstall, after you've already used make install?
[16:33] <wolfpack> popey what is the command to download apackage using terminal
[16:34] <IdleOne> basajaun: not sure about the syntax, maybe someone else knows.
[16:34] <Quantum_Ion> siddhion, Do you like making backups of your /home/ directory
[16:34] <rigved> siddhion: only for touchscreens ;)
[16:34] <IdleOne> KM0201: I don't know.
[16:34] <wwwyzzerdd> question: i'm experiencing sudden shutdowns in 10.10, usually while watching longer flash videos (sc2 replays on youtube). what could this be?
[16:34] <suraj> give me link
[16:34] <KM0201> hmmm
[16:34] <BarbaraBush> popey: i was in log sorry lol
[16:34] <rigved> !checkinstall | suraj
[16:34] <rigved> suraj: link in there ^^
[16:34] <Quantum_Ion> Lots of bugs in 10.10 huh
[16:35] <Quantum_Ion> weird bugs
[16:35] <jose> hi, i install lighttpd, phpmyadmin and mysql on ubuntu but i can't load phpmyadmin (403 - Forbidden)
[16:35] <IdleOne> KM0201: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall probably has the answer you need
[16:35] <siddhion> rigved, ok Quantum_Ion well i do not have anything solid i am working on right now....then again i have all my VIM files in there....i suppose it would not be such a big deal
[16:35] <KM0201> IdleOne: yeah, i was reading over it...
[16:35] <Diverdude> hello. how do i send a message to a windows machine?
[16:35] <siddhion> then again why go through it....i would rather focus on learning/working
[16:35] <ilovefairuz> wwwyzzerdd: power management kicks in?
[16:35] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: really? 10.10 has been flawless for me.
[16:35] <BarbaraBush> nvm popey they fix is the "current stable release"
[16:35] <BarbaraBush> and it has the bug
[16:35] <Quantum_Ion> siddhion, Every 6 months a new Ubuntu Linux distro ???
[16:35] <ilovefairuz> Diverdude: what kind of message? IM?
[16:35] <wwwyzzerdd> ilovefairuz: nope. plugged into wall
[16:36] <siddhion> Quantum_Ion, I didn't say that
[16:36] <Diverdude> ilovefairuz, yeah like "hello how are you"
[16:36] <Quantum_Ion> KM0201, Do you ever thin 10.10 will become LTS ?
[16:36] <Diverdude> ilovefairuz, on a LAN
[16:36] <IdleOne> Quantum_Ion: never
[16:36] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: of course not..
[16:36] <ilovefairuz> wwwyzzerdd: still, check the setting it may be configure to sleep/hibernate/power off after a fixed period
[16:36] <Quantum_Ion> KM0201, Why not ?
[16:36] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: ubuntu releases LTS's at specific times
[16:36] <wolfpack> what command should i type in terminal to download this pkg ubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:36] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: because it wasn't released in april..lol
[16:36] <IdleOne> Quantum_Ion: next LTS is going to be 12.04
[16:36] <siddhion> Quantum_Ion, I will wait till 11.04 .... I wonder what advances will be in that version
[16:36] <Chuck_> I tried 10.10 and then wentback to 10.04. My machine speed was intolerable with 10.10. As I am new to ubuntu, I do ot have the skills to tweak the setup yet. 10.04 runs faster out of the box on y IBM R51 laptop.
[16:36] <Diverdude> ilovefairuz, ?
[16:36] <Quantum_Ion> IdleOne, lol
[16:37] <wolfpack> what command should i type in terminal to download this pkg ubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:37] <wwwyzzerdd> ilovefairuz: i'm sure that's not it. i leave my laptop on all day long. this so far has only occured while watching these videos, and not every single time
[16:37] <ilovefairuz> Diverdude: what protocol are they using? MSN, Yahoo, or what?
[16:37] <IdleOne> or is it 11.10?
[16:37] <ilovefairuz> wolfpack: sudo apt-get install
[16:37] <Diverdude> ilovefairuz, just using some netios or something installed by default
[16:37] <staszek20> Hi! I have problem with my browser. When i open it, i get communication: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
 Or can the code also be not licensed at all?
[16:40] <siddhion> wwwyzzerdd, yeah but don't you hate going to work on it? it must be hot as hell.
[16:40] <k00pa> and that damn wireless modem...
[16:40] <k00pa> I hope I get that working also
[16:40] <ugmg> staszek20 , first from the task manager stop the mozilla program and then try if not try to create new profile
[16:40] <KM0201> k00pa: what kind is it?
[16:40] <ilovefairuz> kaddi_: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:40] <k00pa> idk what it is
[16:40] <k00pa> let me check
[16:40] <ePax> How do i add new panel to my new desktop.... i dont have any panels att al on it.
[16:40] <k00pa> it works with hardy atleast
[16:40] <kaddi_> how is open source not related to ubuntu?
[16:40] <Quantum_Ion> I just upgraded a friends computer from 8.0 whatever to 10.04 and the difference is amazing like night and day
[16:41] <wwwyzzerdd> siddhion: i remove the battery and plug it into a wall most of the time, the heat from any laptop is primarily from the battery
[16:41] <k00pa> huawei e220
[16:41] <k00pa> Quantum_Ion: good or bad?
[16:41] <pal0> 6
[16:41] <IdleOne> !resetpanels | ePax
[16:41] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: exactly, the difference between 10.04 and 10.10.. while if you do some looking, you'll see them.. are far less dramatic
[16:41] <Quantum_Ion> k00pa, Good upgrade
[16:41] <k00pa> yeaaa
[16:41] <k00pa> is the latest much heavier?
[16:41] <ugmg> wwwyzzerrd , dell or toshiba
[16:41] <kaddi_> lemme rephrase then is open source the equivalent of licensed under gnu for ubuntu or does it also have completely unlicensed code?
[16:41] <siddhion> wwwyzzerdd, interesting.
[16:42] <Quantum_Ion> k00pa, Fairly easier that is for sure better partitioner,etc
[16:42] <siddhion> wwwyzzerdd, I might try this with mine
[16:42] <KM0201> k00pa: 10.04 boots much faster than 8.04, at least IMO...
[16:42] <k00pa> hmm
[16:42] <k00pa> yeah dropping the live cd and testing
[16:42] <staszek20> ilovefairuz: I written killall -9 firefox-bin, but this doesn't work
[16:42] <alfred_> my installation stack where it asks " who are you "
[16:42] <KM0201> i'd rather just clean install an OS.. but thats just me.
[16:42] <MrBoss> staszek20 has a paypal account?
[16:42] <alfred_> I can t installl ubuntu 10.10 from CD
[16:42] <KM0201> alfred_: why not?
[16:42] <alfred_> I do not know
[16:43] <alfred_> it doesn t go anywhere
[16:43] <ugmg> staszek20, kill an create new profile or reinstall
[16:43] <alfred_> just stack
[16:43] <ilovefairuz> staszek20: try it with just firefox not -bin
[16:43] <Quantum_Ion> staszek20, It should be kill -9 firefox
[16:43] <wwwyzzerdd> siddhion: i recommend it for any laptop that has a removable battery, it reduces heat as well as increases overall battery life
[16:43] <Ryu_Kurisu> alfred_: Did you check the CD before installing?
[16:43] <alfred_> restarted it many time in vain
[16:43] <siddhion> wwwyzzerdd, thanks
[16:43] <alfred_> well, I download it , and used new CD to burn the image
[16:43] <wwwyzzerdd> siddhion: excess heat on laptop batteries effectively reduces their life
[16:43] <ePax> IdleOne: I added new screen to my computer and i have to separated screens. On new one i donw have panel
[16:43] <Quantum_Ion> wwwyzzerdd, My laptop batteries usually burnout after a year of use
[16:43] <alfred_> I am connected to internet, is there a away I can do it via commad line ?
[16:43] <staszek20> MrBoss: no i don't pay
[16:44] <Quantum_Ion> 1 year and the laptop battery is can not hold a charge anymore
[16:44] <IdleOne> ePax: oh, sorry I don't know how to do that.
[16:44] <ePax> IdleOne: oki
[16:44] <wwwyzzerdd> Quantum_Ion: i'v ehad this battery for about two years now and it still holds a charge for at least 1:45 to two hours
[16:44] <BarbaraBush> popey: for the future, i found the fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/651008
[16:44] <siddhion> wwwyzzerdd, a great bit of info there. im dettaching my battery now
[16:44] <Quantum_Ion> wwwyzzerdd, What kind of Computer
[16:44] <siddhion> peace
[16:44] <tuggle> hi, does anyone know whether the XTS mode is available for loop-aes or whether it is even neccessary?

[16:45] <Quantum_Ion> wwwyzzerdd, I had a Dell they usually run Hot
[16:45] <alfred_> how to install ubuntu from command line ?
[16:45] <wwwyzzerdd> Quantum_Ion: yeah that is a problem i have seen with a lot of them
[16:45] <KM0201> alfred_: if you're having some weird hardware that is not co-operating... you'd probably best to download the alternate install cd...
[16:45] <KM0201> !alternate | alfred_
[16:46] <Quantum_Ion> Dell Computers are known for running Hot and melting
[16:46] <Quantum_Ion> the laptops at least
[16:46] <KM0201> My acer ran sort of hot... I got a cooling pad for it... but it never got so hot that it shut down or anything like that.. just seemed warmer than it should be.
[16:46] <alfred_> thx KM0201 and ubottu , I ll try this solution

[16:52] <Quantum_Ion> I am just going to get a cheap Acer netbook with a 160GB drive and install Ubuntu Linux and Windows 7 in a dual boot setting
[16:53] <Stava> How do I remove Rythmbox from the sound icon menu thing?
[16:53] <Belboz999> does anyone here know anything about why nscd would fail?
[16:53] <Owl332> I'm running this through a serial console, it's acting a bit funny :P
[16:53] <Belboz999> or is there some way to prevent the upgrade from installing nscd?  (it's not a currently installed software)
[16:56] <cousteau> There was an option on older versions of Ubuntu that allowed you to "Disable multiple logins for a single user". Now that option is on by default and it doesn't seem to be possible to allow multiple logins. Is there a way to do this?
[16:56] <cousteau> or, can I install the old GDM configuration dialog?
[16:58] <KM0201> Quantum_Ion: whyare you doing that? (the acer)
[16:58] <Arachon> Can anyone help me with sharing files between my windows desktop and ubuntu laptop?

[16:59] <genupulas> hanasaki:  u mean running java in ubuntu
[16:59] <Arachon> I've found guides on setting up samba, but that seems to be for the other way round?
[16:59] <hanasaki> genupulas: specifically a .deb in a repo for java7 not java6
[16:59] <itaylor57> hanasaki: not thru regular repos

[17:00] <KM0201> Arachon: yeah, it is.. but.. you can set up a network share on Ubuntu(following samba guide).. then when the share is visible on XP.. put the files on the share
[17:00] <genupulas> i can guide you to .bin
[17:00] <itaylor57> hanasaki: you could download source and compile it ourself
[17:00] <Arachon> Oh, fair enough... But is there no way to do it the other way round? Just for future reference?
[17:00] <KM0201> Arachon: there probably is.. but honestly, i'm no real sure how.
[17:00] <genupulas> hanasaki:  i can provide you .bin file
[17:01] <Arachon> Ah, ok
[17:01] <Arachon> Thanks anyhow :3
[17:01] <KM0201> Arachon: not really a winders nerd :)
[17:01] <hanasaki> itaylor57:  yup.. was hoping that there was something ina  ubuntu dir that was ready...   the update-alternatives is a pain lol
[17:01] <Arachon> :P
[17:01] <staszek20> ugmg: thanks, but i remove orginal folder and i insert folder from windows
[17:01] <mkquist> Arachon: trying to share between win/linux?
[17:01] <ugmg> :)
[17:01] <Arachon> mkquist: yup
[17:01] <itaylor57> hanasaki: i use open jdk
[17:01] <Arachon> or well, to access files on my windows comp from linux
[17:01] <hanasaki> itaylor57:  its on v7?
[17:02] <Belboz999> okay, apparently whoever coded the init script for nscd forgot a few lines needed to give the proper repsonse when it's already running, so instead of "already running" it got a "fail" and the whole upgrade stopped :P
[17:02] <mkquist> Arachon: pretty much works just like in windows once youve installed the file (samba) on linux....
[17:02] <hanasaki> openjdk-6-jdk itaylor57
[17:02] <juniour> hi
[17:02] <hanasaki> also itaylor57 I have had some compatibilty issues with openjdk haven't you ?
[17:02] <staszek20> ugmg: and i should not do that
[17:02] <hanasaki> and harmony isn't ready yet from apache
[17:02] <Arachon> mkquist: I was trying to do it the other way round, getting shared files from windows to my linux
[17:03] <itaylor57> hanasaki: not so far
[17:03] <juniour> is there one that help me regarding bluetooth
[17:03] <ugmg> i know wat i can say
[17:03] <aroman> !ask | juniour
[17:03] <mkquist> Arachon: ive not had any problems, make a share in windows, linux should see it
[17:03] <Diverdude> What tool can i use to scan all ip's in my LAN?
[17:03] <Arachon> And on another note, I'm running UNE, and I'm told you're supposed to be able to access a hierarchal style menu (as found in the desktop edition) as well as the "app" style menu... Is this true?
[17:03] <cousteau> I can't connect to my server with ssh -X
[17:03] <Arachon> mkquist: Well... That's the thing, where do I look? With samba, with "files and folders"?
[17:03] <Arachon> I'm... kinda new at this <.<
[17:03] <juniour> ubottu i am not able to pair my moile to pc
[17:04] <Diamondcite> cousteau: Try ssh -Y instead.
[17:04] <mkquist> Arachon: open nautilus and look in network
[17:04] <hanasaki> funny sun did the bundling for ubuntu and only has rpms not .debs
[17:04] <wolfpack> as said by idleone and popeye I have installed " ubuntu-restricted-extras" package but still unable to run rm files in ubuntu 10.04
[17:04] <cousteau> Diamondcite, same problem: "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication"
[17:05] <hanasaki> itaylor57: what kinda java things do you do
[17:05] <Diamondcite> cousteau: I wonder if X11 forward was enabled.. and do you have the right user provided?
[17:05] <ilovefairuz> wolfpack: sudo apt-get install vlc
[17:05] <suraj> any body know here step by step procedure  to make .deb file from installed program
[17:05] <Diverdude> What tool can i use to scan all ip's in my LAN?
[17:05] <ilovefairuz> wolfpack: if that doesn't play it (and i doubt it) try mplayer
[17:06] <ilovefairuz> Diverdude: nmap
[17:06] <sherbieny> hello everyone
[17:06] <cousteau> Diamondcite, yes, it's enabled on /etc/ssh/sshd_config: X11Forwarding yes
[17:06] <juniour> quit
[17:06] <ilovefairuz> hello sherbieny
[17:06] <Diamondcite> cousteau: Could the same user you are trying to SSH in as also log into X?
[17:06] <aroman> Diverdude, you can use wildcards in nmap
[17:06] <cousteau> yes, actually it's already logged in
[17:06] <Diverdude> aroman, how does that work?
[17:06] <itaylor57> hanasaki: ive only been on ubuntu for a couple of months, working on getting my eclipse environment setup, almost switched to java6 yesterday but didnt
[17:07] <hanasaki> itaylor57:  why's that
[17:07] <Arachon> Ok, now I feel dumb, but how on earth do I access nautilus from Ubuntu Netbook Edition?
[17:07] <aroman> Diverdude, http://nmap.org/
[17:07] <hanasaki> itaylor57:  tried netbeans... not to start an IDE war
[17:07] <suraj>  any body know here step by step procedure  to make .deb file from installed program
[17:07] <sherbieny> does anyone has a login problem after generic-headers-24 update
[17:07] <sherbieny> I have
[17:08] <ilovefairuz> suraj: did you read the link the bot gave you?
[17:08] <cousteau> I'm logged in to an X session on my desktop (the server), trying to access remotely with my netbook (the client) in order to copy and paste some text using x2x (the target)
[17:08] <sherbieny> sometimes but not always ubuntu starts in tty1 login console asking for username and password
[17:08] <hanasaki> how do ya setup the default jvm if more than one is installed... in this case.. the one to setup is the manual install of java7
[17:08] <suraj> ya i read....but i didn't get dat
[17:08] <suraj> hard to understand
[17:09] <sherbieny> when i login it takes me to the normal login screen with my name status is (already logged in)
[17:09] <ilovefairuz> hanasaki: man  update-alternatives   ... or use galternatives
[17:09] <lindi-> Diverdude: hmm, aren't -X and -Y the same by default?
[17:09] <lindi-> sorry meant Diamondcite
[17:09] <ilovefairuz> lindi-: no they are not
[17:09] <cousteau> Diamondcite, should ~/.Xauthority be owned by me, or by root?
[17:09] <lindi-> ilovefairuz: are you sure?
[17:09] <Diamondcite> cousteau: You.
[17:10] <cousteau> then why in hell...
[17:10] <ilovefairuz> lindi-: yeap
[17:10] <cousteau> ...ok, chmodding it
[17:10] <lolzer> i am having real problems with ubuntu 10.10
[17:10] <ilovefairuz> lindi-: read the docs
[17:10] <lindi-> ilovefairuz: debian-config.patch enables ForwardX11Trusted by default so even -X uses it
[17:10] <Diverdude> aroman, can you give me an example?
[17:10] <cousteau> s/chmod/chown/
[17:10] <lindi-> ilovefairuz: I did and the source too, also tested it
[17:10] <Diamondcite> cousteau: Try sudo chown username:username ~/.Xauthority
[17:11] <necorom> alguien habla  español?
[17:11] <sherbieny> anyone?
[17:11] <ilovefairuz> lindi-: ah, i didn't know about that patch! let me check
[17:11] <warrentang> hello
[17:11] <aroman> Diverdude, Sure. First, install nmap.
[17:11] <necorom> hi
[17:11] <itaylor57> hanasaki: use sudo update-alternatives --config java or javac to point to a specfic jvm jdk
[17:12] <lindi-> ilovefairuz: 'Turn off the new ForwardX11Trusted by default, returning to the semantics of 3.7 and earlier, since it seems immature and causes far too many problems with existing setups. See README.Debian for details (closes: #237021).'
[17:12] <aroman> Diverdude, Then, assuming your LAN has a base IP range of 192.168, you can type: $nmap 192.168.*, and it will do the work.
[17:12] <hanasaki> ilovefairuz: and itaylor57 those only find the java installed by .deb .. not the .bin self package
[17:12] <sherbieny> ok more data:
[17:13] <ilovefairuz> hanasaki: you shouldn't install using the bin, there are debs for the sun version
[17:13] <necorom> Alguien que escriba español
[17:13] <sherbieny> I'm using ubuntu 10.10 on dell inspiron 1520 with Nvidia 8600GT and 3GB RAM
[17:13] <hanasaki> ilovefairuz:  for java7?
[17:13] <cousteau> Diamondcite, ok, after changing the owner (and a failed attempt), I was able to open zenity remotely
[17:13] <breadcrumb> !es | necorom
[17:13] <sherbieny> this happened after some update that added generic headers 24
[17:13] <ilovefairuz> hanasaki: not sure, did you check the partner repository ?
[17:14] <hanasaki> ilovefairuz:  yes....
[17:14] <necorom> o gracias
[17:14] <cousteau> omg, all this was because I was too lazy to re-type an URL on my netbook
[17:15] <ilovefairuz> hanasaki: well the package (be it a bin or a deb) has to use the alternatives system for this to work, otherwise you'd have to do the symlinks yourself
[17:15] <itaylor57> hanasaki: it would take mucking under the hood to enable java7 as the default and to modify your netbeans config files
[17:16] <sherbieny> hanasaki, can I help I just installed the JDK
[17:16] <cousteau> now I wonder why ~/.Xauthority (and ~/.dbus/) got owned by root
[17:16] <lindi-> cousteau: you used sudo?
[17:17] <cousteau> lindi-, always with caution
[17:17] <tuggle> if I create a guid partition table then a 1mb free space is always left when I create a partition. What is saved there?
[17:17] <cousteau> (I mean, no `sudo gedit` or stuff like that, always gksudo)
[17:18] <Arachon> okay, I can't get the hang of this at all
[17:18] <Arachon> Is there any way to get a "proper" explorer-like menu in Ubuntu netbook edition? "Files and Folders" doesn't show me everything, can't see disks, networks etc
[17:19] <Musashi0011> I created a bootable usb drive using ubuntu 10.10 with my mac. Yet when I attempt to boot my laptop with it (after selecting the corresponding usb from boot-up) it just continues to load the OS from the hard driver after a few minutes.
[17:19] <Musashi0011> Do I have to install grub or LILO on the usb drive?
[17:20] <gobbe> Musashi0011: how did you create it?
[17:20] <ilovefairuz> Musashi0011: how did you create it?
[17:21] <gobbe> Musashi0011: because it looks like you missed something when creating it
[17:21] <Musashi0011> converted with hdiutil from iso to img
[17:21] <Musashi0011> then copied to my usb via dd
[17:22] <sherbieny> could any expert here tell me if I'm having a new problem or its normal
[17:22] <Musashi0011> specifically: hdiutil convert /Users/MusashiBaka/Downloads/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso -format RdWr -o /Users/MusashiBaka/Downloads/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.img

[17:23] <Musashi0011> I really need to move away from OS X completely.
[17:24] <remission> Hello everyone. Im a newbie trying to install Linux for the 1st time onto my Asus  1005hab netbook and am using the Wubi installer instructions off howtogeek.com . I am having a lot of issues. ive tried 3 times and each time it takes forever to download the ISO, 3 hrs at last try before it gives me an error saying it cant find all the install files and then i have to close it.

[17:24] <lahdekorpi> Hi! Any ideas? I've got a laptop with Intel graphics, it works just fine with the older Xorg (on 8.04 and older), but not with any newer ones.
[17:24] <lolzer> hi .. can some1 give me a link where it shows how to configure the cell phone modem via USB
[17:24] <Musashi0011> gobbe: really??
[17:25] <gobbe> Musashi0011: same iso and method works with linux, so why wouldnt it work it osx, it's just a image that you need to copy to stick :)
[17:25] <lahdekorpi> Is there any way to use the old Xorg and Intel driver of 8.04 with latest Ubuntu?
[17:25] <Musashi0011> gobbe: I'll try it. Thanks.
[17:26] <ugmg> Musashi0011 change your boot order from disk to usb first

[17:32] <ManDay> Guys did anyone get to work PIDGIN with Google Talk? I just tried to install it and when I add a GOOGLE TALK account it results in an XMPP account and I don't see the Google-Talk buddies of my profile either!
[17:32] <ManDay> And when I want to ADD A BUDDY nothing happens
[17:32] <PerSeL> ilovefairuz: I wrote this in terminal?
[17:33] <PerSeL> ilovefairuz: I write !pastbin in terminal?
[17:33] <ilovefairuz> ManDay: Gtalk is built on Jabber/XMPP and that's why pidgin uses it
[17:33] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: weird, I've been using Google Talk, Google Apps Talk and my own Jabber server (linked to others) with Pidgin and other libpurple and they work fine
[17:34] <paddy_> NerWeEP
[17:34] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: do other see you as online when you log in?
[17:34] <ilovefairuz> PerSeL: nope you write: lsusb     .. and copy and paste to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[17:34] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: got to check.
[17:34] <Guest80769> hi
[17:34] <macman_> hi alll .. im trying to use wine and all it keep saying not writers detected .. anyway to fix ?
[17:34] <ilovefairuz> lahdekorpi: trying ticking "show offline buddies"
[17:34] <ubuntu_> hey
[17:34] <ubuntu_> anyone here have experience w/ building a raid5 on ubuntu?
[17:34] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: do you have any aditional extensions for pidgnin installed?
[17:34] <elMariachi> Hi
[17:34] <Guest80769> can someone tell me which protocol empathy uses if i choose "persons near by" (or something like that in english)
[17:35] <ubuntu_> I've got mine created and its  rebuilding the spare drive..
[17:35] <elMariachi> I think i found a bug in the current installer
[17:35] <ubuntu_> i'm wondering if it wouldn't be faster for me to simply format the drives
[17:35] <ilovefairuz> Guest80769: a rather simple protocol built on avahi/zeroconf
[17:35] <elMariachi> Is this the right channel to talk about it with someone who's in charge?
[17:35] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: no, and besides, Google Talk is almost 1:1 XMPP and should work fine
[17:35] <ubuntu_> if i format my raid5 will it still require a rebuild/recover of the spare drive
[17:35] <ilovefairuz> elMariachi: #ubuntu-bugs
[17:35] <PerSeL> ilovefairuz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/547537/
[17:35] <elMariachi> ilovefairuz: thanks
[17:35] <gobbe> ubuntu_: software-raid takes while to build, because every block is copied
[17:36] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: yes, but i dont see any buddies and when I want to add a buddy nothing happens either
[17:36] <gobbe> ubuntu_: it doesn't matter is it empty or not
[17:36] <Guest80769> ilovefairuz: is it documented somewhere?
[17:36] <ilovefairuz> PerSeL: what ubuntu version are you using?
[17:36] <ubuntu_> gobbe, oohhh .. well would u operate it in ext4?
[17:36] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: do you see any offline buddies?
[17:36] <ilovefairuz> Guest80769: try their mailling list
[17:36] <PerSeL> ilovefairuz: 10.10
[17:36] <ManDay> no i dont see ANYone lahdekorpi
[17:36] <gobbe> ubuntu_: depends, but in most of cases yes
[17:36] <Guest80769> ilovefairuz: i will. thank you for you helpQ
[17:37] <ubuntu_> gobbe, my drives were originally ext4 and i simply created a raid using the pre-formated partitions
[17:37] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: and the list with buddies became RED now!
[17:37] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: if I remember correctly, Pidgin hides your offline buddies by default
[17:37] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: ah well, how do I change that?
[17:37] <gobbe> ubuntu_: yea. just wait, it takes quite long to have raid built up
[17:38] <ubuntu_> alright thanks.. it says ~780min till finish :-\ lol
[17:38] <manlymat183> Sanity check: I just got a new laptop and installed ubuntu on the new one.  Backing up my files on the old one, the only thing I should need is /home/matt, right?
[17:38] <ubuntu_> is 38440k/sec decent gobbe
[17:38] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: I don't have Pidgin open here, but maybe the Buddies menu? Buddies -> Show -> Offline Buddies
[17:38] <manlymat183> I'm about to wipe the old machine but wanted to make sure there wasn't anything else I needed to back up
[17:38] <gobbe> ubuntu_: yes
[17:39] <ManDay> lahdekorpi: you are right! thanks it works. sorry but im not a im user, doing that for a relative
[17:39] <V-twin> I read that  for the upcoming 11.04 release, Canonical intends to drop the GNOME Shell as the default window manager in favor of Unity, a graphical interface it first developed for the netbook edition of Ubuntu. What advantage does Unity have over  the GNOME Shell?
[17:39] <ubuntu_> alright, thanks for the input gobbe .. think I'm going to fire up the laptop and install battlefield 2 while i wait lol
[17:39] <lahdekorpi> ManDay: no problem
