[15:19] <reisio> Flash is awful, say est la veee
[15:19] <Pessimist> reisio does the video/audio quality suffer because of that?
[15:19] <pr0d> Pessimist: no idea wat version im runnin, never really looked into it aslong as it works
[15:19] <reisio> Pessimist: video is video
[15:20] <reisio> Pessimist: mplayer is better at playing it than Flash ever will be
[15:20] <pr0d> Pessimist, drop me a link if u get this workin :)
[15:20] <rickbee> I'm sorry guys, what is the easiest way to connect to a network 'manually'? it's in my "
[15:20] <rickbee> network list
[15:21] <reisio> rickbee: an IRC network?
[15:21] <s1> curt: whats the ushare error ! And have you checked what GPU on the machine !
[15:21] <pr0d> Pessimist: but ye unfortunately AMD cards are crap on linux :) and thats coming from a long time fan
[15:22] <dimiandre> i all :) i have a small problem, when i open Terminal the icon don't appear on the programs bar and every time i must minimize all windows for reopen terminal : S it's normal ?
[15:23] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all, when I suspend with my laptop, the screen stays black for a while before the screen lock prompts me for the password and I lose connection to the 'net each and every time. This hasn't happened before the last update to 11.04 I did. Any way to check what was updated?
[15:24] <scarleo> rickbee: click the network symbol and then click your network and enter credentials, that's the easiest way
[15:25] <Pessimist> pr0d I know. With AMD you get cheaper and more powerful cards but awful drivers, with nvidia you get less powerful cards (they are getting cheaper..) and awesome drivers
[15:25] <VictorCL> how can I make crontab open in vim ?
[15:25] <xxiao> need know which _uninstalled_ package contains a file, e.g. xslt-config, is there a cmd to do that(not using ubuntu's www interface)
[15:26] <horiddr> what's a good programm to download sites for offline usage and also allows me to see what i am doing?
[15:26] <curt> hey guys, i have ubuntu running on a disk that wont boot and i need to recover some important files from it. whats the best way to go about this?
[15:26] <reisio> VictorCL: export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vim
[15:26] <ikonia> curt: use a CD
[15:26] <xxiao> dpkg -S only search for installed packages?
[15:26] <reisio> horiddr: httrack
[15:26] <ikonia> curt: boot from the CD and attempt to mount the disk
[15:26] <reisio> horiddr: see what you're doing?
[15:26] <benoliver999> curt: Live disk
[15:26] <VictorCL> reisio,  where do I write that?
[15:26] <curt> ok thanks ikonia
[15:26] <ScatterBrain> I realize this isn't a major issue, but I'm wondering if there is a way to get Expose back in 11.10?  I'm not talking about Expo with just a block of the desktops, I'm talking Expose with a reflection and all.
[15:26] <mbeierl> christian__: back, but ya, I can't think of why it's trying to do that.  not familiar with qemu at all
[15:26] <reisio> VictorCL: in a term to use temporarily, or in ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile, etc.
[15:27] <mbeierl> VictorCL: it's another one of those bash environment variables :)
[15:27] <VictorCL> ok
[15:27] <horiddr> in freenode they told me to use wget. but i don't understand what i do in the termial. so i must have to see some buttons.
[15:27] <christian__> mbeierl: i changed the qemu-ifup script
[15:27] <xxiao> simiarly, 'dpkg -L' only works for installed packages, is there a way for me to do similar thing for uninstalled packages?
[15:27] <reisio> horiddr: httrack http://some/frikkin/website/path
[15:27] <reisio> horiddr: is that so hard?
[15:27] <Pici> xxiao: if you install apt-file, you can use that.
[15:27] <christian__> now the error disappeared.. and a new one came :D but thats another story
[15:28] <xxiao> Pici: thanks. let me try
[15:28] <reisio> horiddr: there's an extension frontend for it for Firefox called spiderzilla, not sure what the compatibility is like
[15:28] <mbeierl> christian__: oh, joy :)
[15:28] <Arney> This causes an endless loop??? sdir=dirname $0 ; cd ${sdir}/mu-conference
[15:28] <christian__> i got to set up anubis on my pc ^^ its a pain in the ass :D
[15:28] <reisio> horiddr: there's a win32 GUI frontend, might work fine via Wine
[15:28] <yaz> hi i was wondering can some1 help me with ubuntu and laptop battery??
[15:28] <mbeierl> CharminTheMoose: just saying... you techincally should lose any active connections when you suspend.  the computer is, after all, basically powered down
[15:29] <xxiao> Pici: seems right, apt-file update is downloading all the package info
[15:29] <reisio> horiddr: oh nevermind it comes with a webUI that will work as a GUI
[15:29] <xxiao> quite large though
[15:29] <toumbo> Can anyone tell me which are the Qt 4 development libraries ?
[15:29] <mbeierl> CharminTheMoose: as for the prompt for password, that is configurable somewhere.  check under Power Management?
[15:30] <mbeierl> toumbo: apt-get install libqt4-dev, perhaps?
[15:31] <toumbo> Οκ I'll try it!Thanks!
[15:31] <CharminTheMoose> Hehe, good point there mbeierl.
[15:31] <VictorCL> on the cronfile    5 * * * * *  /var/www/cron/file.sh    <-- do I have to put  sh in front ?  like -->  5 * * * * * sh /var/www/cron/file.sh
[15:32] <mbeierl> CharminTheMoose: although, like you said, something did change...
[15:32] <ikonia> VictorCL: not if the file is executable
[15:32] <VictorCL> ok
[15:32] <_joey> why simple features  mac os x or ms windows work and on linux always something is broken
[15:32] <CharminTheMoose> mbeierl, as for the password prompt, like, the screen will remain black, no mouse pointer or anything and then after a few seconds, the mouse pointer and prompt will appear. Clicking keys/mouse buttons doesn't 'speed' up the appearence.
[15:32] <_joey> i am upgrading the system and it failed for 5th time
[15:33] <ikonia> _joey: can you explain the failure/issue
[15:33] <reisio> _joey: it's your imagination
[15:33] <jaequery> hi guys, where does ubuntu store it's network scripts? like the eth0
[15:33] <reisio> because with Windows and Mac OS you spend 6 months saving to pay for the upgrade and by then you don't care if it works or not
[15:33] <ikonia> jaequery: what do you mean by network scripts as it's quite a complex process
[15:33] <reisio> jaequery: its*, in /etc/
[15:33] <_joey> it starts with checking and prompting if I want to proceed etc
[15:34] <ikonia> reisio: any chance you keep your nonsense out of the channels
[15:34] <_joey> and then downloaded all packages.
[15:34] <jaequery> so where in /etc
[15:34] <reisio> ikonia: ?
[15:34] <_joey> then it fails to download a single file
[15:34] <jaequery> in redhat, they are usually in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
[15:34] <ikonia> jaequery: it depends what you're actually after, are you talking about the config files or the files that actually bring the interface up
[15:34] <mbeierl> CharminTheMoose: what version?  and you can check /var/log/apt/history or /var/log/aptitude to see what was changed recently
[15:34] <jaequery> the interfaces, like eth0
[15:34] <Sentynel> hi guys, just updated to 11.10 and the shutdown process is hanging. x quits, I get the splash screen, then that vanishes, something is displayed on the console but then that clears before I can read it. if I switch to tty1 the stopping processes messages are there as usual. ttys don't respond to the keyboard, so I can't log in and check top/etc. can't see anything useful in dmesg/etc, but I don't necessarily know what I'm looking for. any ideas?
[15:34] <_joey> stating there is internet connection issue, well, I am chatting with you using the very system i am trying to upgrade
[15:34] <reisio> jaequery: /etc/network/interfaces
[15:34] <SunTsu> finally, I solved my cryptroot problem. For some reason there was a "lvm=system" in /etc/crypttab 's options. The cryptroot script just copied that over to conf/conf.d/cryptroot - resulting in "lvm=system-root,lvm=system" and because of this initramfs tried to mount /dev/mapper/system instead of /dev/mapper/system-root
[15:34] <ikonia> jaequery: do you want to configure it, or do you wnat to bring the interface up
[15:35] <WormDrink> does ubuntu have USB 3 support ?
[15:35] <reisio> ikonia: just the insult, then?
[15:35] <ikonia> jaequery: what file in redhat do you want to know the ubuntu version of
[15:35] <ikonia> reisio: no, just trying to resolve some peoples issues first, your nonsense about spending 6 months paying for support etc etc.
[15:35] <jaequery> i just want to modify my ip
[15:35] <reisio> meanwhile I've already given him the file
[15:36] <ikonia> reisio: no, you've not, you rushed in without finding the requirements
[15:36] <ikonia> jaequery: are you using a desktop ?
[15:36] <reisio> uhuh, we'll see
[15:36] <jaequery> no, server
[15:36] <SunTsu> that was a PITA to debug
[15:36] <Dackka> o
[15:36] <ikonia> jaequery: ok, so as reisio said the config file is in /etc/network/interfaces,
[15:36]  * reisio doesn't wait for an apology
[15:36] <gnx__> hi
[15:37] <reisio> hi gnx__
[15:37] <ikonia> reisio: you won't get one as providing the right answer doesn't mean you didn't rush in without getting the requirements
[15:37] <gnx__> i need help
[15:37] <reisio> ikonia: doesn't it?
[15:37] <ikonia> reisio: no
[15:37] <reisio> maybe I'm just more perceptive than you
[15:37] <yaz> how can i improve my battery life on ubuntu??
[15:37] <LjL> please drop this, it's getting annoying
[15:37] <reisio> I guess that'd be impossible, though
[15:37] <pr0d> reisio has a biger chip on his shoulder
[15:37] <reisio> LjL: happily
[15:37] <pr0d> bigger*
[15:38] <reisio> pr0d: easier to say when nobody's insulting you
[15:38] <jimmy8888> does xfce use the same 'startup applications' as unity/unity2D ?
[15:38] <pr0d> you are asking for it with your stabs at people
[15:38] <mbeierl> yaz: I don't know if this is officially supported or not, but I used "jupiter" on my laptop, and it took me from 2h to about 4h battery life on 10.04.  getting the url now...
[15:38] <reisio> jimmy8888: it has its own system
[15:38] <reisio> pr0d: what stabs at people?
[15:38] <SunTsu> gnx__: try to state your problem then, nobody will come to the rescue without knowing what your problem actually is
[15:38] <yaz> mbeier: thnx
[15:38] <CharminTheMoose> mbeierl, Am running 11.04. As an aside, I installed xlockmore and was launched that on my laptop, I got a similar kinda thing happen when I let the laptop suspend and then tried to get it out of suspending overnight, the screen started flashing between black and the xlockmore password prompt.. Could be similar issue with my hardware here.
[15:39] <pr0d> Your insults at people who come here for help
[15:39] <gnx__> i have problems whith the configure of apache 2 .. i  there a way to damage repair
[15:39] <reisio> pr0d: where?
[15:39] <reisio> gnx__: what's the problem
[15:39] <pr0d> glad people like you didnt help me when i first started to use linux
[15:39] <gnx__> colombia
[15:39] <reisio> pr0d: so can't actually cite one, then
[15:39] <jimmy8888> reisio: thats what i thought, but when i logged into an xfce environment it seemed to load all the same startup apps as i had configured in unity (in fact it launched conky twice - which i am in the process of troubleshooting)
[15:39] <reisio> gnx__: that's an interesting problem
[15:39] <xxiao> Pici: that works, thanks!
[15:39] <jrib> gnx__: would you prefer help in spanish?
[15:39] <_joey> http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/3979/screenshotxa.png
[15:40] <reisio> jimmy8888: sounds like you might have more than just Xfce's stuff running, then
[15:40] <_joey> here is the screenshot
[15:40] <danielmierzwinsk> Hello. I'm trying to install Ubuntu from a USB on my Mac and could need some help. Sometimes the USB doesn't show and other times when it does (Labelled Windows) it shows some icons in the bottom and then goes into black screen. Anyone who can help me?
[15:40] <_joey> it's rediculous
[15:40] <lucidguy> My Ubuntu 10.04 server died on me after a power drop.  Via rescueCD I can get to my data but my md environment is all messed, for example I see md125 and md125.  System starts up odd also, rescue grub prompt.  Would you guys try and hack at this and try to bring up original os environment or backup data and re-install?

[15:41] <ding> Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade a jaunty machine to karmic, but ran into some EOL issues like I can't install python2.6 because of libreadline6, which is "not installable". Any advice on how to proceed so that I can install update-manager-core ?
[15:41] <RaTTuS|BIG> 11.11
[15:41] <_joey> that's the message
[15:41] <ThisDarkTao> jrib, I'd like to know how to exit a program thats currently running in the terminal
[15:41] <jimmy8888> reisio: ahh ok, so reisio will show all the indicators/tray applets for things it sees as already running? it does not necessarily explicitly start them?
[15:41] <dnlmzw> Hello. I'm trying to install Ubuntu from a USB on my Mac and could need some help. Sometimes the USB doesn't show and other times when it does (Labelled Windows) it shows some icons in the bottom and then goes into black screen. Anyone who can help me?
[15:41] <mbeierl> yaz: or their launchpad site: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/jupiter
[15:41] <reisio> _joey: did you try it again?
[15:41] <jrib> ThisDarkTao: what program?
[15:41] <_joey> 5 times I tried
[15:41] <jrib> !upgrade | ding
[15:41] <_joey> or maybe more
[15:42] <reisio> jimmy8888: right by default
[15:42] <ThisDarkTao> jrib, any program, say a program that takes text input, how can I cancel whats currently running and go back to a standard prompt?
[15:42] <jrib> ding: that wiki page should point you to special repositories for eol releases
[15:42] <reisio> jimmy8888: you can add more in ~/.config/autostart/
[15:42] <edbian> ThisDarkTao: ctrl + C
[15:42] <ikonia> _joey: there doesn't appear to be a repo hosted onthat IP
[15:42] <jrib> ThisDarkTao: usually ctrl-c
[15:42] <reisio> jimmy8888: or with the GUI you're apparently looking at already
[15:42] <ThisDarkTao> jrib, okay thanks I'll try that now
[15:42] <ding> jrib: Thanks. Looking now.
[15:42] <TheWarden> Hi, I've configured my Remote Desktop Preferences with the following checked, "Allow others users to view my desktop", "Allow other users to control my desktop", "Require the user to enter a password" and "Configure network to automatically accept connections".
[15:42] <jrib> ThisDarkTao: ctrl-c will send SIGINT to the program
[15:43] <TheWarden> However it doesn't appear to work after a reboot. I have to open up "Remote Desktop Preferences" dialog close it and then VNC works again.
[15:43] <ThisDarkTao> jrib, thanks that does the trick, I'm testing a simple java program to learn the language and got annoyed at having to close my terminal every time!
[15:43] <VictorCL> where is syslog.conf in ubuntu?
[15:43] <jon5000> Help.  My printer is not showing up and i am having trouble getting it to connect.  Using xubuntu 11.04
[15:43] <jimmy8888> reisio: ahh ok so it does use the same startup items directory as unity then (.config/autostart/) ?
[15:43] <TheWarden> How can I fix this??
[15:43] <jrib> VictorCL: /etc/rsyslog.conf
[15:44] <reisio> jimmy8888: I haven't used Unity much, but all that ~/.config/ is standardized by freedesktop, AFAIK, so probably
[15:44] <reisio> jon5000: what make/model?
[15:44] <VictorCL> jrib is not here I al read looked
[15:44] <_joey> ikonia: in which file do I manually disable acroread download?
[15:44] <_joey> it fails on acroread
[15:44] <jimmy8888> reisio: right that clears some things up. bless those standards!
[15:44] <jrib> VictorCL: what version of ubuntu?
[15:44] <VictorCL> 11
[15:44] <reisio> jimmy8888: for the most part, yeah :D
[15:45] <jrib> VictorCL: there is no such thing.  11.04 or 11.10?
[15:45] <ikonia> _joey: you can't, you need to get it
[15:45] <VictorCL> 11.04
[15:45] <_joey> a acroread?
[15:45] <VictorCL> there is rsyslog.conf
[15:45] <jimmy8888> reisio: hahah awesome. thanks for your help!
[15:45] <_joey> there is a list of archives in /etc somewhere
[15:45] <jrib> VictorCL: what is the ouput of « apt-cache policy rsyslog »
[15:45] <ikonia> _joey: no - you need to get it
[15:45] <greg3000> hi, I need to reinstall a package using apt-get but I can't use 'remove' because it would uninstall too many other programs.  would anyone clue me in on this mystery for me? :)
[15:45] <jrib> VictorCL: that's what I told you...
[15:45] <VictorCL> xD
[15:45] <mbeierl> lucidguy: I'd back it all up first, then give a shot at trying to recover.  I've actually had good luck at running 11.04 re-install over 11.04 after I corrupted my system once
[15:45] <_joey> 20 years and they still can't fix a bloody install on linux
[15:45] <VictorCL> ok my fault
[15:46] <jrib> VictorCL: :)
[15:46] <ikonia> _joey: did that package come from a 3rd party repo ?
[15:46] <VictorCL> was looking for syslog.conf
[15:46] <reisio> greg3000: probably want to use dpkg itself, then
[15:46] <lucidguy> mbeierl: You can do this with the liveCD?
[15:46] <jrib> VictorCL: ubuntu uses rsyslog
[15:46] <reisio> greg3000: but what makes you think you should reinstall it?
[15:46] <VictorCL> what does the "r" stands for?
[15:46] <greg3000> reisio: thanks, like dpkg -u ?
[15:47] <bobweavertonight> ok guys I am about to snap my isp keeps dropping in and out  I am watching my gateway and also wireshark no bad packets so far  what could be causing this ?
[15:47] <TheWarden> the systems I've tested this scenario on is on Ubuntu v10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx
[15:47] <jon5000> reisio, hp deskjet f4480 (all in one)
[15:47] <greg3000> reisio: I remember building and installing one copy on my PC, but I want to make sure the copy from the repositories is running
[15:47] <jrib> !info rsyslog | VictorCL
[15:47] <mbeierl> lucidguy: yes.  11.04.  I don't know if 10.10 or earlier actually have the 're-install' option, but i used 11.04 livecd and went into install, and it basically did a recover of the installed os.  i had to re-install some packages after, but it was pretty good at getting me 90% of the way back to operational in a very short time

[15:48] <trijntje> Hi all, I want to change virtual desktop using mouse buttons. Where can I set this?
[15:48] <VictorCL> I've learn so much today of linux than the whole year xD
[15:48] <mbeierl> lucidguy: but, again, i can't stress enough - backup anything important first, just in case
[15:48] <RaTTuS|BIG> 11.10 that was ..... reisio
[15:48] <VictorCL> trying to set up this cronjob
[15:48] <darshan> i am switch to some user opensrf  and want to perform step as:- ./configure --prefix=/openils --sysconfdir=/openils/conf ,but its giving me error at one place ,and dat is "opening dependency file  .deps/libopensrf_la-osrf_message.Tpo :permission denied".leaving directory /home/opensrf/opensrf-2.0.1/src/libopensrf.
[15:48] <VictorCL> Ȯ.Ȯ
[15:48] <reisio> RaTTuS|BIG: you wanted to know about auto starting, was it?
[15:49] <RaTTuS|BIG> yes
[15:49] <reisio> RaTTuS|BIG: check out /etc/xdg/autostart
[15:49] <MatthiasHamburg> Hey guys, my ubuntu 11.04 takes a few seconds more for boot since I installed some hardware and software services. Is it possible to turn off graphical boot so that I can see the text boot messages?
[15:49] <mbeierl> VictorCL: hang around here often?  it's a good place to get a lot of info quickly on the right day :)
[15:49] <RaTTuS|BIG> kk - will do thanks
[15:50] <VictorCL> is faster to ask here :) and learn from what others ask
[15:50] <VictorCL> and have a chance to chat while  iam working .. xD
[15:51] <_joey> what's a nice gui mail reader other than evolution?
[15:51] <mbeierl> VictorCL: true, true.  But for your remote system where it's Debian, not ubuntu based, you need to take some answers and run independantly with them because there /are/ differences in places :(
[15:51] <mbeierl> _joey: I find Thunderbird to be an excellent alternative
[15:52] <mbeierl> _joey: but that's just me and there are many answers to that question...
[15:52] <jankko> ubuntu from usb is most slow than another instalation. that blackscreen maybe because it charger
[15:52] <VictorCL> yes :)
[15:52] <trijntje> MatthiasHamburg: sure, edit /etc/defaults/grub
[15:52] <trijntje> then change the line with "quiet splash" to "verbose"
[15:53] <trijntje> then run sudo update-grub
[15:54] <_joey> is update-manager a reliable application to upgrade the system?
[15:54] <TheWarden> ahh I found the solution, Remote Desktop Server was not starting up at bootup. So I went to System->Preferences->Startup Applications and make sure Remote Desktop is enabled.
[15:54] <_joey> I somehow doubt it
[15:54] <Pici> _joey: Why wouldn't it be?
[15:54] <Gentoo64> _joey: its the same as apt-get upgrade
[15:54] <Gentoo64> with a gui
[15:54] <_joey> obviously it's not
[15:55] <_joey> it's a b0rked front-end
[15:55] <sattu94> jrib: installing network-manager also seems to pull in some gnome stuff..like keyring, etc..
[15:55] <reisio> well frontends obscure information
[15:55] <Gentoo64> _joey: how?
[15:55] <jrib> sattu94: I see.  Maybe wicd will be lighter then
[15:55] <trijntje> Gentoo64: no exactly, apt-get upgrade wont look for new dependency's in upgraded packages
[15:55] <sattu94> jrib: yes, but wicd doesnt seem to working,
[15:55] <_joey> it's been reported by thousands of people on various forums that it often fails to update/upgrade the system
[15:56] <_joey> that's how
[15:56] <jrib> sattu94: :)
[15:56] <mbeierl> _joey: sorry, but if you've already formed an opinion, why do you ask?
[15:56] <Gentoo64> alright
[15:56] <Pici> _joey: Is there a bug/bugs logged for that?  If not, theres not much that we can do to fix that.
[15:56] <_joey> it's not an opinion, it's a statement of fact which I just dicsovered searching for the solution on google
[15:57] <_joey> Pici: the tool is a bug
[15:57] <Gentoo64> _joey: you can always use the terminal way..
[15:57] <Gentoo64> _joey: but a lot of people use the gui without problems
[15:57] <iceflatline> terminal ftw
[15:58] <Pici> _joey: If you're not here to ask a question about the software, then this discussion is offtopic for this channel.
[15:58] <Ethine> Hi! I was wonderin' if somebody could help me with a kinda silly problem. My workspace switcher is still working, but it's all ugly all the sudden, and it no longer loops. Did I accidentally a setting somewhere?
[15:59] <sattu94> jrib: i have the daemon running, and then ran wicd-curses, it runs for sometime and then gives some weird error..
[15:59] <anirath> Ethine: try using compizconfig
[15:59] <_joey> Gentoo64: and how do I upgrade the distribution in terminal?
[15:59] <MatthiasHamburg> trijntje: thank you, got more output now. but the gdm comes up immediately so I can't see anything
[15:59] <sattu94> jrib: when i try to connect.
[15:59] <jrib> sattu94: hmm, what error?
[15:59] <Gentoo64> _joey: i think its apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:59] <Polah> _joey: sudo do-release-upgrade
[15:59] <trijntje> MatthiasHamburg: i'm sure those messages are logged somewhere, so you can always read them back later
[15:59] <Gentoo64> my bad
[16:00] <CC666> whois nickserv
[16:00] <devlin> Does anyone know what to do with blackscreens caused by ATI Radeon 6xxx for my laptop? Installed 11.10 and all I can do is a tty login.
[16:01] <CharminTheMoose> I'm 11.04. I installed xlockmore and launched that on my laptop, the screen started flashing between black and the xlockmore password prompt when I tried to go from the suspended state to xlockmore, but eventually it let me type my password in. Now this is happening with gnome's xlock. :/
[16:01] <anirath> CC666: not a real person man
[16:01] <CharminTheMoose> *I'm running 11.04
[16:02] <VictorCL> I think cron is not working :/
[16:02] <moonunitzappa> hello

[16:02] <VictorCL> I wrote a bad path to check .. but it wont generate a /var/log/cron.log

[16:04] <reisio> moonunitzappa: click the cog next to your name input
[16:04] <sattu94> jrib: first it spews a lot of output, then theres something about no ipv6 routers being present, then ndiswrapper saying "invalid cmd 12", and finally it stops after saying that the remote host did not respond, (or something like that..)..and ofcourse the curses interface is then all messed up and i am back at the prompt..
[16:04] <reisio> moonunitzappa: you might want gnome-session-fallback, too
[16:04] <mbeierl> VictorCL: there should be a /var/log/syslog entry about your cron job attempt...
[16:04] <Mrono> i'm having an issue with gnome 3.2 where it locks after 5min (how i set it up) but half the time the screen freezes and the unlock screen doesn't come back
[16:05] <sattu94> jrib: after that apt-get, wicd or anything else wont start..
[16:05] <obviousTroll> Hi all. I keep getting a graphics error. Can anyone help?
[16:05] <trijntje> how can I tell which session I'm using, unity or unity2d?

[16:06] <reisio> under: dictation?
[16:06] <obviousTroll> trinjnte: I can pastebin the rest if needed
[16:06] <under> reisio: yes
[16:06] <jrib> sattu94: try typing "reset" blindly and hitting enter when that happens
[16:07] <reisio> under: should be a sound recorder preinstalled, is that not enough?
[16:07] <under> reisio: I mean, I speak ubuntu writes
[16:08] <reisio> under: ah, speech to text
[16:08] <under> yes
[16:08] <VictorCL> yeah there is so much stuff
[16:08] <VictorCL> can you somehow filter logs file?
[16:08] <Gentoo64> VictorCL: what are you trying to do
[16:08] <Gentoo64> grep?
[16:08] <mbeierl> VictorCL: sorry - is this about the cron entry?  try "grep CRON /var/log/syslog"
[16:08] <VictorCL> ok
[16:09] <_joey> it's getting ridiculous
[16:09] <_joey> I am going to get rid of the buggy OS once and for all
[16:10] <mbeierl> _joey: good luck.
[16:10] <jrib> _joey: this channel is dedicated to support.  Please try to keep the conversation related to either asking or answering a support question.  What is your issue?
[16:10] <reisio> under: there's sphinx from CMU, my understanding is that it's not yet as well developed as Dragon NaturallySpeaking, though (which can run via Wine)
[16:10] <sattu94> jrib: reset just refreshes the screen? the curses UI is gone..
[16:10] <_joey> jrib: I asked the question earlier
[16:10] <Gentoo64> _joey: what was you trying to do, update?
[16:10] <sattu94> jrib: and ssh is dead too.
[16:10] <jrib> _joey: this is not relevant
[16:10] <Polah> _joey: Just because something doesn't work for you doesn't mean the system is buggy. There is a myriad of possible reasons as to why something doesn't work, one of the somewhat less likely ones being "The entire system in general just doesn't work properly". If you don't want to use Ubuntu, use another system and don't complain about it here.
[16:10] <_joey> in fact, about 3-4 times I asked
[16:10] <under> reisio: also the last one version? 11?
[16:10] <MatthiasHamburg> trijntje: thank you! I think I got what I want. Although the log runs through so fast that you can't read it, I can see that just takes some time to boot. No specific line where the boot stops for some seconds, as I expected
[16:10] <jrib> sattu94: I have to go... no real ideas on your issue
[16:11] <sattu94> jrib: sure.
[16:11] <sattu94> jrib: bye.

[16:12] <_joey> apt-get update
[16:12] <_joey> is all fine
[16:12] <_joey> then apt-get upgrade

[16:12] <mbeierl> _joey: I understand you are frustrated, but remember we're all volunteers here.  no one is being paid to help.  now, you're trying to upgrade from the terminal and it appears to fail on upgrading acroread from the canonical parners sight.  do you have another terminal open while doing the update?  get you do a netstat -napt and see if the connection attempt to the partner is in SYN_SENT or ESTABLISHED?
[16:13] <mbeierl> _joey: never mind.  you seem to have moved on to something else, now.  ignore me
[16:13] <rigved> hi everyone...can anyone tell me how to apply the patch as mentioned in the last comment on bug 849967
[16:13] <dandre> hello
[16:13] <dandre> since my upgrade to 11.10 the beahviour for tab completion has changed in bash. For instance I type cd dir[tab] and now I get 'cd directory ' instead of 'cd directory/'
[16:14] <lunitik> obviousTroll: that is not enough information, please throw /var/logs/xorg.0.log onto a pastebin
[16:14] <_joey> mbeierl: it's frastrating ))
[16:14] <_joey> you know
 okay.
[16:14] <lunitik> obviousTroll: uhh, Xorg.0.log
[16:14] <_joey> something as simple as upgrade and people are asking the same question over and over again. I am not abusing the system and misconfiguring it.
[16:14] <lunitik> obviousTroll: also ~/.xsession-errors might be useful
[16:14] <_joey> it's just not working
[16:15] <_joey> bbr
[16:15] <devlin> <-- Looking for help with blackscreen issues. Have an ATI Radeon 6xxx on my laptop. Can only get a tty login. How can I fix this?
[16:16] <obviousTroll> linitik: Xorg.o.log --> http://pastebin.com/EEJLGVAB (Thanks)
[16:16] <mbeierl> _joey: yes, i do know.  I've had a fair amount of frustration with 11.04 myself, but... for those who really want long term stability, it is recommended not to upgrade every 6 months, but to stick with LTS.  now about the util-linux... was there anything else?  could you pastebin the whole session of apt-get upgrade?
[16:16]  * lunitik wishes his Ubuntu was horribly broken so he could be more familiar with issues others are seeing
[16:16] <chris122380> #eclipse
[16:16] <VictorCL> ok I found my prlblem xD
[16:16] <dandre> this is not with cd but with ls
[16:16] <Polah> devlin: An actual system TTY, or recovery console/initramfs command line?

[16:25] <_joey> I ordered a shiny Apple Mac with it's friendly sleek GUI and rock solid kernel :)
[16:25] <darshan> suppose the file is /etc/hosts
[16:25] <Polah> darshan: command line or GUI?
[16:26] <darshan> command line
[16:26] <_joey> Gentoo64: I uncommented canonical url in sources.list and there's some activity now
[16:26] <Stanley00> denis__: I think Ctrl + Alt + D will

[16:26] <_joey> I will sort commercial unsupported application later
[16:27] <ghabit> Hello. @ ubuntu update-manager there is security, updates, proposed & backports updates. Which of them I have choose? Can someone explain it for me?
[16:27] <pis0ga> is there anyone using touchpad-indicator? I'm using version <IP_ADDRESS> on lucid, and it works not very well..
[16:27] <darshan> any other suggestion?
[16:27] <Gentoo64> darshan: nano or vim
[16:28] <lunitik> ghabit: window key > search for 'software sources', go to the 'Updates" tab and tell us yourself... the checkboxed ones are active
[16:28] <darshan> tell with command
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> ghabit: just dont enable the proposed or backports. The rest are fine to enable
[16:28] <rigved> ghabit: security is important...apply these as soon as they come
[16:28] <Gentoo64> darshan: sudo nano /etc/hosts
[16:28] <ghabit> ActionParsnip, thank you!
[16:28] <rigved> ghabit: the recommended ones you can do later whenever you have time
[16:29] <rigved> ghabit: do not do the proposed and backports, unless you actually need them
[16:29] <_joey> which desktop env: gnome or kde?:)
[16:29] <ghabit> rigved, what they does? proposed and backports I mean.
[16:29] <Gentoo64> _joey: for what?
[16:29] <darshan> <IP_ADDRESS>	public.localhost
[16:29] <_joey> for desktop
[16:29] <Gentoo64> _joey: up to you
[16:30] <Mrono> ActionParsnip: I uninstalled gnome-screensaver to see if that is what was freezing when my computer locked
[16:30] <Stanley00> pr0d: try run "locate xmdomain.cfg" or if that's dosent work, "cd / && find -iname "xmdomain.cfg""
[16:30] <darshan> <IP_ADDRESS>	private.localhost	private
[16:30] <Gentoo64> _joey: gnomes bigger and cleaner, kde is more windows 7 like
[16:30] <_joey> Gentoo64: I like to consider features instead throwing a coin
[16:30] <Mrono> ActionParsnip: whatever controls the locking of the computer is freezing 50% of the time
[16:30] <Polah> ghabit: security contains security updates, updates contains general system and program updates, proposed contains updates for programs which have not been sufficiently tested and deemed stable enough for recommended updates, backports contains older versions of programs from older versions of Ubuntu.
[16:30] <rigved> ghabit: proposed are the ones which will come to you after they have been tested...so do not install them unless you are a tester...
[16:30] <Polah> ghabit: Then you have different components like main, restricted, universe and multiverse.
[16:30] <Gentoo64> _joey: they can both do the same stuff. kde has more apps and little options
[16:30] <_joey> Gentoo64: I like KDE then
[16:30] <darshan> this i want to add into an existing file wat exact command i should run
[16:30] <Polah> !repositories | ghabit
[16:31] <rigved> ghabit: backports is for new versions that you can use use on your old system...
[16:31] <_joey> Gentoo64: Gnome is installed by default. How do I switch to KDE?
[16:31] <ghabit> Polah, rigved, thanks a lot! Now it's clear for me.
[16:31] <_joey> without breaking the system :)
[16:31] <Gentoo64> _joey: not sure. you sohuld have installed kubuntu lol
[16:31] <newB> Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu. After spending more than 2 hours downloading Ubuntu 11.10 it seems my P4 computer cannot run it. Would Ubuntu 10.04LTS function properly on a P4 computer?
[16:31] <ck> Blender quit working after the last update
[16:32] <Gentoo64> newB: yes it will. is it the wrong arch? like 64 bit
[16:32] <starsinmypockets> Anyone know what file is supposed to get the SSH public key in OSX? I'm using ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (directly pasting contents of id_dsa.pub) but no worky
[16:32] <ck> the guys in the blender channel think it is a x? problem
[16:32] <rigved> newB: it should. only after you have tried it will you know for sure.
[16:33] <bah> does anyonke know how apt-get resolves which ppa to pull from if a package name exists on multiple ppas (e.g. universe and a custom ppa I've added)?
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Mrono: are there any bugs reported?
[16:34] <lunitik> bah: it is based on version number... I do not know whether PPA's a relevant to apt's priorities function
[16:34] <Gentoo64> bah: maybe goes by the version
[16:34] <mbeierl> bah: there is a "priority" assigned to each package.  It first checks the version and uses the highest number version
[16:34] <llutz> bah: if no pinning active, it'll use the highest version number (1st hit repo if versions are equal)
[16:34] <bah> thanks
[16:35] <Mrono> ActionParsnip: only bug I know of is one for 11.04 with gnome 3.2 lock screen freezing 100% of the time on 64-bit, except i'm running on 32-bit

[16:36] <ck> Blender quit working after the update last night. anyone know why?
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> Mrono: could add that it affects 32bit too
[16:36] <lunitik> ck: try running blender from the terminal emulator of your choice and it'll output exactly why
[16:36] <Gentoo64> ck: whats it say when you run blender from terminal
[16:36] <lunitik> Gentoo64: copy cat

[16:38] <newB> Gentoo64: mine is a old P4 with 1GB RAM. 32 bit.  Would Ubuntu 10.04LTS would work or should I download Linux Mint 11?
[16:38] <Gentoo64> _joey: i hate it
[16:38] <mang0> ck: Just reinstall, simpler
[16:38] <_joey> the GTK+?
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: you can add to it by adding a line in ~/.bashrc
[16:38] <purpleyuan> I located .dot.back_profile, but I have a feel that that's outdated?
[16:38] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: cool, thanks!
[16:38] <Gentoo64> newB: mint has the same requirements as its basically the same distro. a p4 with 1gb ram should be able to run pretty much anything
[16:38] <mbeierl> _joey - did anyone answer how to switch to KDE from standard ubuntu install yet?  if not, just install kubuntu-desktop
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: you can add:  export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/folder
[16:38] <ck> I uninstalled and reinstalled several times
[16:39] <lunitik> ck: this appears to be a self-build blender?
[16:39] <genii-around> purpleyuan: Do you mean the paths that are searched for applications to run, or the default paths which are defined like Desktop, Documents, and so on?
[16:39] <_joey> we have macs at work. After using Mac GUI Gnome is so akward and ugly even some GUI features look similar
[16:39] <mbeierl> _joey: then you can either choose at login time which env you want, or remove ubuntu-desktop to get rid of gnome altogether.  it's about the same as having installed kubuntu in the first place
[16:39] <newB> Gentoo64: How about Ubuntu 11.10?
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: then save the new file and run:  source ~/.bashrc   and its ready to rock
[16:39] <Gentoo64> _joey: thats because your used to mac. i hate the mac gui too
[16:39] <_joey> mbeierl: thanks
[16:39] <gatis> hello to everybody, i was wondering how can i assign IP address to device that is connected and MOUNTED to my Ubuntu machine? in this case device is a phone
[16:39] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: The paths for apps to run
[16:39] <Confoozled> so...anybody have any idea about plymouth-splash?
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> newB: mint is offtopic here
[16:40] <_joey> Gentoo64: :))
[16:40] <ck> I have tried the 2.6, suposed 2 b so, and the software center both
[16:40] <Gentoo64> newB: yeah try it it should work. id use xfce or lxde for 1gb ram though itll be a lot faster
[16:40] <shubbar> I'm getting the X on black. Help!
[16:40] <_joey> is there anything you like other than Gnome?:)
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: yes, that's what that is for
[16:40] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: If there's a swap file, does that mean it's currently being accessed?

[16:40] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: if you run:  sudo swapoff /dev/partition       then it will not be used, by default it will be used
[16:41] <mbeierl> _joey: there is actually a third choce: xfce, which is a really minimal install that is the equivalent to xubuntu
[16:41] <ActionParsnip> Gentoo64: openbox rocks :)
[16:41] <Gentoo64> ActionParsnip: i know
[16:41] <Gentoo64> :)
[16:41] <_joey> I remember xfce with a little rat
[16:41] <shubbar> Checked the hdd in rescue mode, but that didn't help

[16:43] <Gentoo64> newB: xubuntu or lubuntu
[16:43] <Stanley00> darshan: you can use nano, it's an easy editor...
[16:43] <Gentoo64> newB: id use lubuntu if i was you
[16:43] <SilverMonkey> xubuntu rules
[16:43] <ck> OK, the terminal output has been pasted into paste.ubuntu.com
[16:44] <newB> Gentoo64: Thanks for the suggestion
[16:44] <Gentoo64> SilverMonkey: pretty slow on old comps though. tried it on my family comp and was sluggish
[16:44] <purpleyuan> $a
[16:44] <ck> do you see it?
[16:44] <Confoozled> So...nobody?  or...am I invisible?
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> newB: Ive ran a full compiz/gnome on 1Gb RAM with single core 1.6Ghz AMD sempron

[16:45] <ck> ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/714351/
[16:45] <Gentoo64> ok

[16:45] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  tried forever a few hours ago
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: what does plymouth-splash status 1 mean?
[16:45] <w00y__> Hi, I have just installed a library and it prompted me with "If you ever happen
[16:45] <w00y__>                 to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory you must use
[16:45] <w00y__>                 libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library /usr/local/lib." Whats
[16:46] <w00y__>                 the right way to use the libtool?
[16:46] <newB> ActionParsnip: I tried Ubuntu 11.10 but it dont seem to work properly on my P4 with GB RAM.
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> newB: a lighter DE will give more resources to your apps, making a smoother OS
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> newB: what GPU do you use?
[16:46] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  that is the last message I get by booting...   plymouth-splash main process (854) terminating with status 1.
[16:46] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  no idea what it means
[16:47] <newB> ActionParsnip: P4  2.8Ghz.
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: so you haven't used the web to find out?
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> newB: no the GPU, on the video card...
[16:47] <Gentoo64> newB: i would use lubuntu. it sounds like my family comp specs- p4 3ghz 1gb ram. lubuntu runs nice on it
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> newB: the P4 is the CPU, not the GPU
[16:47] <_joey> but Ubuntu and Kubuntu are equally well suported?
[16:47] <Ozik> hi there, got one question, I have ssh access to my server only. (ubuntu server 10.04) I want to do do fresh install or something similar, but as RAID 1 with mdadm, is it possible remote?
[16:47] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  I searched it
[16:47] <Gentoo64> _joey: yeah
[16:48] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: when I attempt to run my script, why does it say "Permission denied"?
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: what GPU do you use?
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: its not a script
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> purpleyuan: run:  source ~/.bashrc
[16:49] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  GPU?
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: on your video card....
[16:49] <luis_> Try this: http://jechem.blogspot.com/2011/04/fix-plymouth-splash-screen-in-ubuntu-on.html
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: ATi? Nvidia? Intel? SiS
[16:50] <darshan> which keyboard button will let me to come out from nano without saving nething
[16:50] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: Yeah. I did that and I confirmed that the path I put in is part of $PATH, but when I try to run the script that is in that folder, it gives Permission Denied
[16:50] <Polah> Confoozled, run this: lspci | grep VGA   then pastebin the output
[16:50] <newB> ActionParsnip: the original video card that comes with old  dell Optiplex P4  170L.
[16:50] <Gentoo64> darshan: ctrl + x then "n"
[16:50] <Gentoo64> then enter
[16:50] <xtian> hi everyone. any devs/packagers around?
[16:50] <newB> Gentoo64: thanks. i'll try lubuntu anyway.

[16:52] <necrite> hello
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: how come I found that so very quickly...?
[16:52] <xtian> i've set up a basic amd64 ubuntu/precise chroot using debootstrap. chrooted into it, added some more deb-src'es, selected a bunch of packages for install, and apt-get would start to randomly choose i386 packages for install ('bout half of the packages selected)
[16:52] <necrite> anyone with oneiric ? i have problems with flash player
[16:52] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  you probably no where to look
[16:52] <purpleyuan> ActionParsnip: Nvm.  Thanks a bunch for all your help :)
[16:52] <luis_> confoozled: Try this,  http://jechem.blogspot.com/2011/04/fix-plymouth-splash-screen-in-ubuntu-on.html
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: http://www.google.co.uk/search?gcx=c&sourceid=chrome&client=ubuntu&channel=cs&ie=UTF-8&q=plymouth-splash+status+1+
[16:53] <xtian> removed "foreign-architecture i386" from /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch, and things work
[16:53] <lunitik> necrite: yes, but I have no problems with it
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: thats all I used
[16:54] <lunitik> xtian: #ubuntu-devel ... but I don't see a question so far
[16:54] <necrite> lunitik, wich flashplugin u have? installed ?
[16:54] <darshan> ok command how to save my entries in nano and come out of it.
[16:54] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  I put in the whole line and got all kinds of sites that didnt help me
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: if you keep searches simple you find stuff. I'm inclined to believe you did no searching prsonally
[16:54] <Gentoo64> darshan: ctrl +x then "y" then enter
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: try the fix I gave
[16:54] <xtian> lunitik: why would an amd64 apt prefer i386 over amd64, even if amd64 packages are available?
[16:54] <christian__1> i need help with qemu :(
[16:55] <reisio> christian__1: what's your processor?
[16:55] <christian__1> E6600
[16:55] <christian__1> intel
[16:55] <lunitik> necrite: the one depended on by ubuntu-restricted-addons ... it is 11.0
[16:55] <christian__1> but thats not the problem
[16:55] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  I will.  Im new to Linux.  Grew up on windows and got fed up.  I like it, but I do feel like a child wandering around in a really neat jungle.
[16:55] <xtian> lunitik: but yes, will ask on #ubuntu-devel
[16:55] <christian__1> i can start qemu
[16:56] <lunitik> xtian: it shouldn't, at all
[16:56] <christian__1> but then i get a windows error with the message that a probelm with exec.exe occured
[16:56] <christian__1> and qemu tells me that he cant find a process named exec.exe
[16:56] <xtian> lunitik: then the question is, why it does. :-) (host is amd64 as well, not the chroot only)
[16:56] <christian__1> :/
[16:56] <luis_> http://jechem.blogspot.com/2011/04/fix-plymouth-splash-screen-in-ubuntu-on.html
[16:56] <xtian> lunitik: i'll switch to #ubuntu-devel, thanks
[16:57] <snikker> hi how can i get a size of partition? fdisk -l show only total size of hard drive
[16:57] <anAngel> Hello. What is the purpose of cgroup-lite package on 11.10? Because it causes my OS to hang at boot if it is installed. I upgraded from 11.04 a few days ago and i am using lxc.
[16:57] <christian__1> if anyobody here has expirece with qemu, please contact me
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: there are lots of guides, as I said, keep searches simple and you'll do better. The more words you search for in web search engines will get more hits
[16:57] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  Thanks for your help.  I did try to fix it myself...several times.  I just have no idea.  will be back later if it doesnt work
[16:57] <lunitik> xtian: did it start using i386 by default when you removed the foreign-architecture line?
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> Confoozled: hope it works dude
[16:58] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  good tip.  I always try to search as specifically as possible
[16:58] <Confoozled> ActionParsnip:  later
[16:58] <theadmin> By the way, is Ubuntu still being a hamster about Firefox, i.e. holding back major upgrades?
[16:58] <Gentoo64> noticed earlier google removed + from the search box
[16:58] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all, I'm running 11.04. I installed xlockmore and launched that on my laptop, the screen started flashing between black and the xlockmore password prompt when I tried to go from a suspended state to xlockmore, but eventually it lets me type my password in. Now this is happening with gnome's xlock. :/
[16:58] <Gentoo64> need "" only now
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> !info firefox
[16:59] <lunitik> anAngel: it is a tool to provision resources on your system... on a desktop, it is unlikely you need it.
[16:59] <Stanley00> snikker: maybe the df command will
[16:59] <marko-_-> Hello can you fellas help me out. I'm using ubuntu 11.10 and i have python3 and python2.7 installed. now 2.7 is the default one, i'm trying to use 3.0 with pycharm, how do i do that?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: its at version 7 in oneiric if thats any good to you
[16:59] <iceflatline> snikker: Try df -h
[16:59] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Not really, I'm wondering more of Natty or Lucid
[16:59] <delirmis_ci> hello!
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> !info firefox natty
[16:59] <necrite> lunitik, how can I konw if I have this repo?
[16:59] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Often old Ubuntu versions mean *really* old FF's
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: 7 in natty too....
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> !info firefox lucid
[17:00] <lunitik> necrite: you will by default... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-addons
[17:00] <Gentoo64> !info firefox maverick
[17:00] <theadmin> Oh, wow
[17:00] <theadmin> Old in Lucid and Maverick, I see
[17:00] <celltech> So is the only way out of this "unity" to downgrade to 11.04? Cause i'm totally ready to do that
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: seems tobe older in Lucid, there are PPAs for newer ones but I dont know much of firefox
[17:00] <delirmis_ci> Is there any command line application to check if dns works or not like this: "check_dns_package <IP_ADDRESS> www.google.com"
[17:00]  * ARCK está away.. [away desde 03:00] [t7DS: pager/on, logging/on]
[17:00] <theadmin> Well not that it matters to me, I'm an Opera and Arch user, just wondering :D
[17:00] <Gentoo64> theadmin: meh 3.6 is snappier anyway
[17:00] <anAngel>  lunitik: thanks for the reply. i am using the pc as router/server using lxc (linux containers)
[17:01] <Polah> celltech: No. There's lots of other environments you can use if you like. GNOME3 shell or panels, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, Enlightenment and so on.
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> delirmis_ci: nslookup www.bbc.co.uk
[17:01] <xtian> lunitik: no, it used proper amd64 packages after removing the multiarch line
[17:01] <lunitik> anAngel: so you are looking to allocate resources per container?
[17:01] <reisio> christian__1: you should be using kvm, not qemu
[17:01] <celltech> K cause I really don't like this new 11.10 set up at all. I liked having more control over my system
[17:01] <kamilnadeem> Hi
[17:01] <kamilnadeem> I have a prob in Kubuntu 11.10, Every time I start my system , the Volume gets set to mute?
[17:01] <kamilnadeem> That means after every boot I have to uncheck mute from the mixer
[17:01] <christian__1> reisio i cant
[17:01] <reisio> christian__1: why not
[17:01] <christian__1> but why ?
[17:01] <kamilnadeem> any solution
[17:02] <necrite> lunitik, ok.. i got it.. Could you please tell me which package you have?
[17:02] <lunitik> xtian: that is what I asked... so I recommend putting it back
[17:02] <reisio> because qemu is much slower
[17:02] <christian__1> its an project that builds upon qemu
[17:02] <reisio> christian__1: it should work with kvm, too
[17:02] <reisio> christian__1: or are you saying it's a modified qemu build?
[17:02] <christian__1> yes
[17:02] <christian__1> its basing on qemu afaik
[17:02] <reisio> ah, too bad
[17:02] <christian__1> but why is kvm better for me ?
[17:02] <lunitik> necrite: it says version 8 of ubuntu-restricted-addons
[17:03] <xtian> lunitik: but the chroot is amd64, the host is amd64, and apt was *supposed* to install amd64 packages, not i386, at least where amd64 is available
[17:03] <reisio> christian__1: it's better period, in general
[17:03] <christian__1> i think its running nice, but only cant find the exec.exe
[17:03] <christian__1> oh ok.. no its a virus analysis system
[17:03] <christian__1> startet at 2006 or so i think
[17:03] <lunitik> xtian: well, but by saying removing foreign-architecture... it seems to think it is the native architecture...
[17:03] <xtian> lunitik: when the multiarch entry was there, it randomly selected i386 where it was supposed to select amd64 (and use i386 as fallback only, imho)
[17:04] <anAngel> lunitik: no. just after i upgraded the os from 11.04 to 11.10 it stopped booting normaly and i found out the cause was the cgroup-lite package and i deinstalled it and everything started working and booting normally. Just wandered it is something importand and needed.
[17:04] <lunitik> anAngel: no
[17:04] <kamilnadeem> I have a prob in Kubuntu 11.10, Every time I start my system , the Volume gets set to mute?
[17:04] <reisio> christian__1: they should really use kvm at this point
[17:04] <wiredfool> fg
[17:04] <lunitik> kamilnadeem: #kubuntu
[17:04] <lindenle> Can anyone helpe me get evolution to talk to exchange 5.5?
[17:04] <xtian> lunitik: about half of the ~100 packages i selected for install were chosen as amd64, the other half as i386... that sounds odd
[17:05] <christian__1> but qemu is still supported and developed, or not ?
[17:05] <moonunitzappa> Anyone know how i can get the "system" drop down on the TOP panel in 11.10
[17:05] <moonunitzappa> i got gnome sheel and gnome panel
[17:05] <kamilnadeem> Yes
[17:05] <lunitik> moonunitzappa: you can't
[17:05] <kamilnadeem> lunitik yes
[17:05] <reisio> christian__1: for now
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: you can add a command to manipulate the sound at login
[17:05] <kamilnadeem> I am all ears
[17:06] <xtian> lunitik: apt docs claim that if nothing else is configured (and it is not for me), apt will assume it's target arch (it was built for) is the preferred one
[17:06] <christian__1> i dont think its possible to change it
[17:06] <xtian> lunitik: now, with the multiarch line for i386 removed, i'm getting the clean amd64 chroot i was out for
[17:06] <lunitik> xtian: is no one active in #ubuntu-devel ? I do not understand what it is doing, and do not see the issue here
[17:07] <christian__1> its woring now reisio
[17:07] <xtian> lunitik: i've blathered there, too, but no, nothing so far
[17:07] <avn-matt> heh, anyone know if there anything for windows to work with a couple apcupsd servers running in the office here
[17:07] <christian__1> i forgot to change the PsActiveProcessHead
[17:07] <kamilnadeem> ActionParsnip How?
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: http://pastebin.com/FeZsaCe5    as a script at boot will set the levels if you add the script to run at login
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: give me chance, jesus
[17:08] <christian__1> god i am so glad it works now :D 3 days sepnt on setting up the system.. and still not everything finsihed
[17:08] <reisio> christian__1: gj
[17:08] <kamilnadeem> sorry I thought you missed my reply
[17:08] <christian__1> thanks for trying to help reisio
[17:09] <lunitik> avn-matt: Windows can work with CUPS but you have to enable the service... and I forget where since I use Linux
[17:09] <kamilnadeem> ActionParsnip I run it in terminal
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: no, i was websearching
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: put it in a script, then have the script run when your user logs in
[17:09] <lunitik> avn-matt: wherever the TCP/IP service is enabled at... I don't recall
[17:09] <kamilnadeem> How to put it in a script?

[17:12] <jaaacck> Hey, can anyone help, since dual booting with windows 7, and ubuntu 11.04, i can no longer boot at all, i can only get into the bios, and i cant boot with a CD either
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: when you close gedit, the file wil be marked executable, then add a new startup item to run fixsound
[17:12] <avn-matt> lunitik: winapcupsd-X.X.X.exe was what i was referring to, just curious if anyone messed with it on win 7
[17:12] <kamilnadeem> The program 'gksudo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[17:12] <kamilnadeem> sudo apt-get install gksu
[17:13] <kamilnadeem> I install it first?

[17:14] <mbeierl> jaaacck: if you cannot boot anything, then there's probably a problem with the hardware.  Not likely much help anyone can give here, sorry
[17:14] <wildbat> jaaacck: why you can't ? is there error message? what you see, hear, smell?
[17:14] <jaaacck> smell nothing, hear nothing, just a black like flashing after the bios has loaded

[17:17] <holapenguin> hi guys, general ubuntu noob here.  I'm logged in as an administator over gnome 3.  I would like to create a file in /etc/apache2/sites-available and I know I need to authenticate as root.  how do I do this over the UI?
[17:17] <pisto> hi. is there a way to test the validity of a repository without sudo apt-get update?
[17:17] <mbeierl> jaaacck: is there a bios option to bring up a boot device selection menu?
[17:17] <puff> Is there any tool or setting I can use to dynamically level the volume on streaming audio?
[17:17] <jaaacck> yeah, i have also tried booting to a cd, that doesnt work either, and i have my primary HDD Selected
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: the file isn't a default file. you are MAKING the NeW script
[17:18] <jamil_1> holapenguin: you start nautilus as root
[17:18] <mbeierl> jaaacck: it is the same CD you used to do the Ubuntu install?  Can you boot that CD anywhere else?
[17:18] <puff> I'm listening to Pandora and songs vary in volume levels, which means I have to constantly lower/raise the volume to adjust.  Is there any way to do this automatically?
[17:18] <avn-matt> lunitik: ref not using windows in 12 years - lucky dog... i think half my time supporting the office here is due to their love for outlook....
[17:18] <ghabit> Polah, looks like no fresh logs there. maybe you have your own?
[17:18] <jamil_1> *can
[17:18] <kamilnadeem> so I save it right , then add it to the stat up application?
[17:18] <jaaacck> its active@ Boot disk,
[17:19] <holapenguin> an0219
[17:19] <jaaacck> should i try with the ubuntu CD too?
[17:19] <lucid_interval> I may not be around, but here is a hint. You can use one of the following commands: gtf or cvt. If you are using gtf, just do: gtf horiz_res vert_res refresh_rate. Ignore my previous statement about horiz rate. It is REFRESH RATE for LCD monitors
[17:19] <holapenguin> exit
[17:19] <mbeierl> jaaacck: please do.  let's try to rule out hardware.  if it booted before, it should boot again
[17:19] <ghabit> Polah, sorry, found it!
[17:19] <lucid_interval> Bragex9:  I may not be around, but here is a hint. You can use one of the following commands: gtf or cvt. If you are using gtf, just do: gtf horiz_res vert_res refresh_rate. Ignore my previous statement about horiz rate. It is REFRESH RATE for LCD monitors
[17:20] <luis_> Sounds Like jaaacck's MBR is bad
[17:20] <lucid_interval> Bragex9: so if your monitor was capable of max 1920x1080 at 60hz, you would type: gtf 1920 1080 60
[17:20] <jaaacck> right, its booted to a purple screen, not sure if its the install screen or not though for ubuntu
[17:20] <lucid_interval> Bragex9: The output will be a valid modeline you can use in xorg.conf (Note: TYPICALLY you should not need to edit xorg.conf in newer Ubuntu versions)
[17:21] <celltech> How do I switch from unity on 11.10. I can't take it... My graphics don't work in unity and my screen is all jacked
[17:21] <kamilnadeem> ActionParsnip http://pastebin.com/xRumiD2C
[17:21] <pr0d> How would i go about stopping ubuntu using certain devices. My reason is using Xen and IOMMU, i basically use these device and attach them to a VM.
[17:21] <mbeierl> jaaacck: that, at least, is a good sign,  means that you are indeed able to boot a cd.
[17:22] <jaaacck> what should i try now?]
[17:22] <mbeierl> I need to run, can anyone else help jaaacck do a grub recovery?  I /think/ that might help
[17:22] <knxville> I've run into a weird problem.. I can not wirelessly connect to my AP, but I can see it.. I can connect with my mobile phone

[17:31] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: ok make the file in your home folder then copy it in, you get the idea right
[17:31] <MonkeyDust> avn-matt: try #ubuntu-offtopic hahaha
[17:31] <avn-matt> MonkeyDust if you want to tell me why nautilus opens when i run gnome-terminal ever since i upgraded to 11.10

[17:32] <ActionParsnip> kamilnadeem: its a script to run at boot, putting it in /usr/bin will make it easier to access
[17:32] <DoctorD90> The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources.

[17:44] <wunnle> i create a ssh tunnel with "ssh -fND <port> <server> command. 5 mins ago, i think tunnel has crashed or something, so i restarted my computer. is there a faster way to recreate ssh tunnel?
[17:45] <arghx> wunnle: stop ssh and restart it
[17:45] <wunnle> arghx, i'm a newbie, show me the code.
[17:45] <arpd> wunnle: you could write a small script to check if it's still listening, and add that to your crontab
[17:45] <arghx> wunnle: you already have the "code"
[17:45] <wiredfool> or use autossh
[17:46] <wunnle> arghx, i only know ssh -fND
[17:46] <wunnle> wiredfool, what is autossh?
[17:46] <arghx> arpd: ~/.xsession* check that.
[17:46] <wiredfool> wunnle: it's something that keeps ssh connections up by restarting them if they go down
[17:46] <Pici> !info autossh
[17:46] <mickeymice> i have a laptop. 2 PC'S, and two phones an ipad etc all connected to the internet at home...i can ssh into some but i NEED to ping certain devices/pc's to see if theyre connect..how can i target my individaul devices/pc's to see if theyre up
[17:47] <arghx> mickeymice: ping them? I don't understand what the problem is
[17:48] <puff> mickeymice: Are you aware of the ping command?
[17:48] <wunnle> arghx, can you show me how to stop ssh?
[17:48] <puff> wunnle: Outgoing ssh?
[17:48] <arghx> wunnle: man killall
[17:48] <mickeymice> i want to ping certain pcs/devices on my network that simple
[17:48] <Bluetegu> Hello. I'm trying to downgrade from 11.10 to 11.04. I'm following http://satisfy123.blog.com/2011/06/13/howto-downgrade-ubuntu-from-11-10-to-11-04/ . I need to set natty priority to 1001 in apt/preferences. Can someone help me with the exact lines I  need to add?
[17:48] <arghx> mickeymice: "ping <ip>". done
[17:48] <wunnle> arghx, thanks.
[17:48] <posciak> I accidentally removed the panel from menu bar that has battery indicator and other things, I can't find anything like that in the Add Panel list. How could I restore it please?
[17:48] <mickeymice> i can do it internally but how do i do that remotely (externally)
[17:48] <firelord42> wunnle: sudo service ssh restart
[17:49] <avn-matt> wunnle man ssh
[17:49] <firelord42> wunnle: i think it has a restart command, you can always do stop and then start
[17:49] <puff> wunnle: Try ctrl-c in the terminal window where ssh is running, or close that terminal window, or do "ps -ef | fgrep -i ssh", find the process ID column and do "kill sshPID", or do "killall ssh", which pretty much does the fgrep for you and kills every ssh process it can find.
[17:49] <puff> firelord42: That's only for sshd, which is for incoming ssh connections.
[17:49] <wunnle> thanks guys.
[17:49] <wunnle> have a good day.
[17:49] <firelord42> puff: i thought he had an issue with sshd?
[17:50] <firelord42> puff: where the port didnt clear so he could not reconnect
[17:50] <asingh> Hi
[17:50] <firelord42> puff: guess not, lol
[17:50] <asingh> anyone using yubikey?
[17:50] <puff> firelord42: Good question, he's far from unambiguous but his original question seemed to indicate he was having a problem with outgoing ssh.
[17:51] <gnx__> hi... do there are any form for restuary the apache 2
[17:51] <arghx> Bluetegu: this is a great way to reinstall your Ubuntu in the near future. good luck
[17:51] <arghx> gnx__: can you please restate your question?
[17:51] <puff> mickeymice: You can't, without reconfiguring your firewall to allow pings to get through (which isn't genreally recommended).
[17:51] <firelord42> gnx__: repository?
[17:51] <puff> mickeymice: Alternatively, you could ssh to a box inside the firewall, then ping devices from there.
[17:51] <arpd> arghx: just had a look through xssesion-errors; couldn't see anything that looked particularly bad, mostly warnings about pixmap; I'll upload it;
[17:51] <mickeymice> puff thats right ididnt think of that
[17:52] <arghx> arpd: was only a guess. you could start X via startx
[17:52] <puff> mickeymice: nosweat.
[17:52] <Bluetegu> arghx: I'm doing my best, do you know the lines I should add to preferences file?
[17:52] <arghx> arpd: that way you see directly all error messages
[17:52] <arpd> arghx: doesn't make a difference, i don't get any errors
[17:52] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all, I'm running 11.04. I installed xlockmore and launched that on my laptop, the screen started flashing between black and the xlockmore password prompt when I tried to go from a suspended state to xlockmore, but eventually it lets me type my password in. Now this is happening with gnome's xlock. :/
[17:52] <arghx> Bluetegu: downgrades are not supported.
[17:52] <avn-matt> Bluetegu follow that guide to the T, ref comment
[17:52] <avn-matt> #1
[17:53] <reisio> asingh: /msg ubottu !anyone :p
[17:53] <arpd> arghx: i think i need to find out why the unity support test is segfaulting when passed -p
[17:53] <arghx> avn-matt: it's a very very stupid idea to follow this "howto"
[17:53] <arghx> arpd: strace, debugger,...
[17:53] <arpd> forgot about strace.. brb
[17:54] <gnx__> what happens is that I can not start apache that I introduced when trying to configure the data poorly and now does not work
[17:54] <Bluetegu> avn-matt: thanks. Can you help with "add natty with priority 1001"
[17:54] <avn-matt> arghx he didnt ask if its a good idea or not.... hard to justify anything at this point with out knowing why
[17:54] <newB> Hi, is it possible to  change the look of Lubuntu to look like Ubuntu?  If yes....  How?
[17:55] <arghx> avn-matt: he said he wants to downgrade 11.10 to 11.04. that's all you need to know
[17:55] <arghx> newB: install ubuntu-desktop
[17:56] <john77> hi, all. just got a box with ubuntu 11.04 preloaded; the old box burned out but have a backup of my /home there.
[17:56] <arghx> !pm | gnx__
[17:56] <newB> arghx: thanks for the tips.
[17:57] <john77> on the old box i had crossover installed to run an acctg application called banana.
[17:57] <avn-matt> Bluetegu: Package: *
[17:57] <avn-matt> Pin: release n=natty
[17:57] <avn-matt> Pin-Priority: 900
[17:58] <Bluetegu> avn-matt: Super. Thanks much. I'll do that and pray...
[17:58] <john77> now i need to reinstall crossover onto this machine. question: do i have to first delete the 'old' crossover files?
[17:58] <avn-matt> Bluetegu - http://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2011/06/20/linux-3-0-under-ubuntu-natty-11-04/
[17:59] <Bluetegu> avn-matt: Thanks. I'll take a ook.
[17:59] <avn-matt> Bluetegu: i'd just install .04 fresh if possible/probable
[17:59] <arghx> john77: you should ask crossover in their forum. it's their closed source app. how should ubuntu know hoe it works?
[18:00] <Aka> Hello
[18:00] <arghx> john77: WINE wouldn't care afaik and you had a backup if everything breaks anyways
[18:02] <Aka> so
[18:02] <john77> arghx:  do you mean i should just reinstall afresh without bothering to purge the 'imported' crossover files?
[18:02] <Aka> just curious how much luck people have had using likewise to join a windows domain
[18:02] <naftilos76> hi i did a clean install of ubuntu 11.10 and it hangs during power off. I have seen many similar references during googling. Does anyone have a fix?
[18:03] <Bluetegu> avn-matt: I have a dual windows and ubuntu boot. Now I need to install this over the 11.10 part. I'm not clear on the live cd which installation route I should take. If I select 'install alongside the existing os' it will not do what I want. I guess I should select the third option (something else) and assign the specific 11.10 partition to the new install.
[18:04] <avn-matt> Bluetegu, you could fix two problems and just get rid of windows :D all jokes aside what you said would be fine #3
[18:04] <avn-matt> arghx might have some better advice for you though...
[18:05] <arghx> john77: I said WINE has all settings in WINEPREFIX. and between the same WINE versions and different installations, this WINEPREFIX works everywhere
[18:06] <gnx__> there is
[18:06] <Bluetegu> avn-matt: I'll first try to downgrade and if it fails re-install. Many thanks.
[18:07] <gnx__> is there any chanall of speaker frech

[18:07] <luist> what package provides libsolid.so on oneiric???
[18:07] <naftilos76> hi i did a clean install of ubuntu 11.10 and it hangs during power off. I have seen many similar references during googling. Does anyone have a fix?
[18:08] <arghx> luist: either dpkg -S <path to file> if it's installed, or use packages.ubuntu.com or apt-file to see which package you need to install to get a certain file
[18:08] <DoctorD90> im back
[18:08] <Aka-noob> naftilos76 I have the same issue but for some reason it works fine if I hit restart
[18:08] <DoctorD90> arghx, some news?
[18:08] <Aka-noob> naftilos76 since I'm on a dual boot its kind of a non issue for me but I haven't managed to find a fix for it either
[18:10] <naftilos76> Aka-noob: If basic functionality is problematic then what the h*** are we talking about? Newer distros are supposed to be better not worse.
[18:10] <Aka> naftilos76 I was just pointing out that you aren't the only one with this issue
[18:11] <naftilos76> Aka: yes i know that. i am just hoping that they will fix this...
[18:12] <Aka> naftilos76 me too I'm waiting on an update It gets annoying having to restart and kill my laptop durring the post
[18:12] <arghx> naftilos76: ACPI is evil. and impossibel to always get right
[18:12] <Aka> LOL
[18:12] <khear> how do i see what graphics drivers i have in use currently?
[18:13] <luist> arghx: thiago: oh i found it now.. kdelibs5-dev :T
[18:13] <Ozik> hi there, got one question, I have ssh access to my server only. (ubuntu server 10.04) I want to do do fresh install or something similar, but as RAID 1 with mdadm, is it possible remote?
[18:13] <networkproblem> I can not join wpa or wpa2 networks with my wireless, I can join with my phone, it changed overnight.
[18:13] <arghx> khear: glxinfo |grep renderer  or /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[18:13] <Aka> BRB gotta go make sure my vendors changes didn't mess up my shipping system
[18:13] <Aka> :D
[18:13] <khear> arghx: thanks
[18:14] <DoctorD90> Someone can help me????????....i use pasteubuntu too -.-
[18:14] <DoctorD90> http://paste.ubuntu.com/714394/
[18:14] <Pici> DoctorD90: Run sudo apt-get update
[18:15] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all. I'm finding that returning from sleep mode is a bit slow all of a sudden, here's the dmesg output, can anyone make head or tail of it? http://pastebin.ca/2091986
[18:16] <naftilos76> arghx: i am just frustrated that gnome-shell (which i am using) is at the point where KDE 4 was when it started. Maturity will take like for ever. Why didn't they just stay with gnome 2 and kernels <3. There is an unexplained tendency to make things more complex without any need for that. Why don't all developers concentrate on one distro? It will take a year to release a distro that rocks! I just don't get it...
[18:16] <reisio> concentration isn't the problem
[18:16] <reisio> people start things they don't have clear design goals for
[18:17] <reisio> and some people abandon goals
[18:17] <arghx> naftilos76: for the same reason why the kde people didn't stay with kde 3.5
[18:17] <starsinmypockets> Looking for the sshd log...
[18:17] <starsinmypockets> *whistles
[18:18] <arghx> starsinmypockets: /var/log
[18:18] <Pici> starsinmypockets: /var/log/auth.log, sshd doesn't run with debug mode for more verbose logging by default.
[18:18] <bob67> salut a tous
[18:18] <bob67> hie everybody
[18:19] <networkproblem> I can not join wpa or wpa2 networks with my wireless, I can join with my phone, it changed overnight. Anyone have a fix?
[18:19] <starsinmypockets> tnx
[18:20] <arghx> networkproblem: since we don't have enough information about what is wrong, we cannot have a fix
[18:21] <networkproblem> arghx: well, it wont join a wireless network with wpa or wpa2 encryption, it does see all networks, but keeps saying the password is wrong.
[18:21] <arghx> networkproblem: use wicd?
[18:22] <jcapinc> so, in gnome3 how are you supposed to minimize without right clicking a window?
[18:22] <Layke> Hit the down button
[18:22] <Layke> O wait, that's KDE.
[18:22] <Layke> Not sure on Gnome sorry.
[18:22] <jcapinc> they removed the button, which seems kind of foolish
[18:23] <aeon-ltd> jcapinc: 'win-M' maybe?
[18:23] <Layke> I set up a keyboard bind for control + alt + down
[18:23] <boutell> I installed php5-cgi and php5-mysql, but phpinfo() has no mysql or PDO support listed. /usr/bin/php5-cgi -m does not show them either. Please advise, thanks
[18:23] <Layke> Since I never used move to next workspace anyway
[18:23] <networkproblem> arghx: i have started the wicd daemon..
[18:23] <arghx> boutell: did you restart apache?
[18:24] <jaybutts> Anyone know a good guid program to manage ssh keys similiar to how I do in windows with pagaent
[18:24] <boutell> arghx: yes, it doesn't show up in those command line tests I mentioned either.
[18:24] <arghx> networkproblem: you need to do a bit more
[18:24] <jcapinc> there should be a way to
[18:24] <networkproblem> arghx: what? :)
[18:24] <arghx> boutell: grepu -r mysql /etc/apache2/*
[18:25] <arghx> networkproblem: run wicd-gtk
[18:25] <trijntje> Hi all, I want to change virtual desktop using mouse buttons. Where can I set this?
[18:25] <boutell> arghx: no mentions.
[18:25] <arghx> boutell: grep -r mysql /etc/apache2/*
[18:25] <boutell> do I have to explicitly enable pdo and mysql in php.ini? Maybe load them?
[18:25] <networkproblem> arghx: what is wrong with nm?
[18:25] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all. I'm finding that returning from sleep mode is a bit slow all of a sudden, here's the dmesg output, can anyone make head or tail of it? http://pastebin.ca/2091986
[18:26] <arghx> boutell: then grep -r mysql /etc/php5/*
[18:26] <l_l> #/join #speedcubers.de
[18:26] <Mion> boutell: you have to include the .so explictly yes
[18:26] <boutell> arghx: I did that.
[18:26] <boutell> Mion: thank you. Where?
[18:26] <arghx> networkproblem: it obviously doesn't work for you?
[18:26] <Mion> php.ini
[18:26] <networkproblem> arghx: well, it did for months and suddenly it wont..
[18:26] <arghx> boutell: debconf should have done this automatically for you
[18:26] <boutell> arghx: I know, that part is weird.
[18:27] <networkproblem> arghx: wicd require that I shut down nm?
[18:27] <Mion> extension=mysqli.so   extension=mysql.so
[18:27] <Mion> or whatever
[18:27] <boutell> Mion: right... under what heading
[18:27] <albertkopejkev> hi, got a 64 bit processor, 4 gig of ram, no special pc usage. should i choose 32 or 64 bit ubuntu?
[18:27] <Mion> no commented out examples already?
[18:27] <boutell> Mion: I went grepping for .so files associated with PHP and didn't find them so far, where do they live in ubuntuland
[18:27] <Mion> albertkopejkev: 64bit
[18:28] <trijntje> albertkopejkev: with 32 bit you will be able to use approx 3.5 G
[18:28] <arghx> boutell: dpkg -L <package>
[18:28] <albertkopejkev> k, thx
[18:28] <arghx> trijntje: ubuntu uses a PAE kernel by default
[18:28] <templet> my chromium-browser is set to opening a series of set webpages on startup.  instead, it gives me a new tab.  i do not know how to correct this.  thanks
[18:28] <templet> i'm using 10.04 LTS
[18:29] <Mion> pae == 0-15% performance penalty, and each process are still locked to 2gb of ram
[18:29] <boutell> arghx: AH. Thank you. I did see those but they wind up in such an odd place I thought they were leftovers from somebody's hand-compiled attempt.
[18:29] <trijntje> arghx: I'd never heart of that, thanks. But what are the ods that someones cpu supports PAE?
[18:30] <Mion> albertkopejkev: 32bit vs 64bit is about much more than just ram
[18:30] <Mion> trijntje: "all" do
[18:30] <albertkopejkev> ye, i wondered about that
[18:30] <albertkopejkev> used it about a year ago, gave me problems with codecs and stuff
[18:30] <albertkopejkev> is it that much more evolved?
[18:30] <crispinbluemanue> hi ive had to re partition disk but have access to old files. I am trying to find folder containing firefox bookmarks ne idea where they will be located eg media or mnt or etc whatever thanks
[18:30] <arghx> trijntje: 100% if it's a x86 64bit cpu
[18:31] <Mion> on most x86 systems, you get 2x the amount of registers, and double sized registers
[18:31] <forceflow> it's a bit sad that 8 years after consumer-level 64-bit hardware has arrived, drivers are still not up to par.
[18:31] <Mion> albertkopejkev: there isn't any problem wtih codecs on 64bit, and there wasn't 1 year ago either
[18:31] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all. I'm finding that returning from sleep mode is a bit slow all of a sudden, here's the dmesg output, can anyone make head or tail of it? http://pastebin.ca/2091986
[18:31] <arghx> Mion: which doesn't help you any except for few edge cases. for "normal" users, RAM is the only important thing
[18:31] <coreGrl> hi
[18:32] <coreGrl> how can I move the button bar on the bottom part of the monitor?
[18:32] <albertkopejkev> so, mion,  what's your guess, seems i'm not that into it, just want to use my pc ez pz and up to his potential.
[18:32] <Mion> albertkopejkev: really isn't any big downsides to go for 64bit these days
[18:33] <crispinbluemanue> ne idea where firefox stores bookmarks folder
[18:33] <albertkopejkev> k, that was probably my question, thank you Mion
[18:33] <trijntje> Mion, arghxk thanks
[18:33] <Mion> specially not now that we have nice things like this: http://www.h-online.com/open/features/Kernel-Log-x32-ABI-gets-around-64-bit-drawbacks-1342061.html
[18:33] <boutell> I now have this. I get the straight mysql extension, but php_mysql still is no joy:

[18:33] <FloodBot1> boutell: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:33] <DoctorD90> resolved ^^
[18:34] <DoctorD90> bye ^^
[18:34] <crispinbluemanue> i have main folders showing eg dev sbin tmp usr srv selinux etc which one of these would have firefox bookmarks jason files or whatever
[18:34] <boutell> whoops, sorry about the flood
[18:34] <boutell> pdo_mysql.so does not appear to work. MySQL shows up but not PDO.

[18:49] <orkaa> hi folks..
[18:49] <orkaa> i'm having this grub-probe problem that is supposed to be fixed

[18:51] <B0g4r7> Hey, I got a dumb question.  I'm running postfix, and I got a couple messages stuck in the queue that show up when I run 'mailq'.  How can I clear them out?
[18:52] <jiltdil> why ubuntu uses its versions extention as *.4 & *.10 any reason?
[18:53] <melow01> Is it not allowed to place comments (#) in the /etc/network/interfaces file?
[18:53] <B0g4r7> jiltdil, That's an effect of biannual release schedule.  April and October.
[18:53] <oCean> jiltdil: 04 = april, 10 = october
[18:53] <urthmover> There’s a very simple reason, actually: these aren’t version numbers, they’re dates. “10.04,” the Ubuntu version to be released this month, is so named because it is the fourth month of 2010 – 10.04. New versions of Ubuntu come out every six months, and the number structure always refers to the year and month of release. In October of this year, for example, will come 10.10.
[18:53] <lunitik> jiltdil: Ubuntu naming follows date constructs... it goes year.month, so .04 means april and .10 means october
[18:54] <reisio> which is useful because...
[18:54] <Krenair> telnet isn't accepting Ctrl+C...
[18:54] <lunitik> reisio: it isn't useful, it is just what they do... what is a better version construct?
[18:54] <jiltdil> oCean:Bog4r7: lunitik: Hm thanks guys i never think about that
[18:54] <reisio> lunitik: I like to start at 1, personally
[18:55] <lunitik> reisio: Why? It is even more meaningless
[18:55] <reisio> or 0
[18:55] <reisio> lunitik: more meaningless than not useful?
[18:55] <reisio> is that possible
[18:55] <C_K_> i am trying to convert a iso .img and this is what i am typing in
[18:55] <C_K_> Goodies$ hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ~/Users/Goodies/ubunutu.img ~/Users/Goodies/Desktop/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso
[18:55] <C_K_> and it says failed no such directory
[18:55] <avn-matt> reisio it increments, with a direct ref to a timestamp what more do you need, lol?
[18:56] <Pici> Krenair: Press ctrl+]
[18:56] <Krenair> Pici: Prints ^]
[18:56] <lunitik> reisio: yes... at least with current versioning you know when the version was released, through standard versioning, you will have to look that up
[18:56] <reisio> avn-matt: how's the timestamp useful? :p
[18:56] <Krenair> Pici: Does not sigint
[18:57] <Pici> Krenair: does it give you the telnet> prompt?
[18:57] <Krenair> Pici: no
[18:57] <reisio> C_K_: I think the 11.10 images are supposed to be dd-ready
[18:57] <darkfalcon> Just installed 11.10 and like the classic desktop better. The only problem I have is that in classic, the workspace switcher does not highlight the currently active workspace. I have tried gnome-color-chooser and could not locate a setting which could change this. Is there a way to change the switcher to show the active desktop?
[18:57] <lunitik> reisio: Ubuntu is mostly about integrating bits from the wider community, only recently have they gone in their own direction on bits... it makes sense to date snapshots
[18:57] <Krenair> Pici: hm, running telnet without any arguments is okay
[18:57] <B0g4r7> C_K_, what if you run just 'hdiutil' with no args.  Same result?
[18:57] <Krenair> But when I specify host and port, it breaks
[18:58] <C_K_> i'm sorry i am a noob
[18:58] <B0g4r7> C_K_, Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't hdiutil an OS X program?
[18:58] <C_K_> ya
[18:58] <C_K_> i am trying to make a bootable usb in mac
[18:58] <jerknextdoor> is there a workaround for the empathy notifications not working?
[18:58] <C_K_> because the cd burner is broken
[18:59] <avn-matt> reisio perhaps by privoding a common ground of comfort for windowlian immigrants?
[18:59] <B0g4r7> C_K_, mmm...You might see if the graphical Disk Utility will write the image onto the USB stick for you.
[18:59] <C_K_> according to the ubuntu website this is what i have to do
[18:59] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[18:59] <mfilipe> is there any way to disable snap-window temporally?
[19:00] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, they have it for the mac as well
[19:00] <mfilipe> is there any way to disable snap-window temporally? something like hold a button to snap-window doesn't work
[19:00] <C_K_> thanks

[19:01] <QuardezMarcoandF> hello

[19:03] <Max229> Why do I have two passwd files? (passwd and passwd~)?
[19:03] <hje841> any suggestions to how I can make the Caps lock key act as AltGr?
[19:04] <hje841> permanently
[19:04] <ynalok64> max229: passwd~ is a previous versin of passwd
[19:04] <Pici> Max229: Its a dash, not a ~, see man 5 passwd
[19:04] <Max229> ynalok64: Should I be worried about either?
[19:05] <ynalok64> whatever. it is all right I think.
[19:05] <synroda> Noone can help me?
[19:05] <Max229> Would updating Ubuntu to 11.10 from 11.04 explain why I got warnings on my passwd file changes and group file changes?
[19:05] <jerknextdoor> is any one else experiencing a problem with the "move to another workspace" and "always on visible workspace" not working at all?

[19:13] <luist> reisio: thanks again :)
[19:13] <reisio> C_K_: yup
[19:13] <C_K_> thanks
[19:13] <Narc> Hello everyone. Is anyone else having trouble to receive messages on MSN protocol with empathy on Oneiric ? Thanks...
[19:13] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> I'm looking for some help in installing Ubuntu on my ASUS Eee PC 1001PXD (Windows Starter pre-installed).  I don't want to delete windows and install Ubuntu over it, so I clicked on the "Something Else" button in the installation interface, but I don't know what to do next.
[19:13] <MonkeyDust> Narc: yes
[19:13] <Anonymouse> test
[19:14] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> I've googled the topic, but nothing seeems helpful
[19:14] <reisio> NewUbuntuDiscipl: you'll have to resize the Windows partitions
[19:14] <reisio> NewUbuntuDiscipl: have you used the Windows install much yet?
[19:14] <B0g4r7> NewUbuntuDiscipl, The usual approach is to use gparted live to reduce the size of the windows partition.
[19:14] <Narc> MonkeyDust: Ok, thanks. Maybe Microsoft is fiddling with the protocols then...
[19:14] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Wubu?
[19:15] <Valligan> Bonsoir à tous !
[19:15] <Pici> !fr | Valligan
[19:15] <reisio> Valligan: agreed
[19:15] <brianl> How can i go about getting KDE on 11.10 64bit?
[19:16] <reisio> brianl: 1) install it
[19:16] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Hmmm....
[19:16] <brianl> lol
[19:16] <reisio> brianl: you want to stop using Unity/GNOME altogether?
[19:17] <jcook_5xdata> brianl, software center kde-desktop
[19:17] <B0g4r7> NewUbuntuDiscipl, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[19:17] <jcook_5xdata> or sudo apt-get install kde-desktop
[19:17] <brianl> reisio, can i have both side by side?
[19:17] <C_K_> can ubuntu read any type of file
[19:17] <Max229> What is the nobody user? Do I need it?
[19:18] <reisio> brianl: yup
[19:18] <jcook_5xdata> brianl, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[19:18] <C_K_> whether it be from windows or mac?
[19:18] <Pici> Max229: Yes, you need it.
[19:18] <TheLastProject> B0g4r7: As far as I know Wubi is broken for 11.10; I got a random error last time I tried it and it wouldn't install Ubuntu 11.10
[19:18] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Naw, it's just that I don't want to delete Windows on my netbook, and I think Ubuntu wants me to partition my hard drive but I don't get get how and Linux's file extensions are unfamiliar to me.  Anybody got any suggestions or links to a website for instructions that I can read so I don't screw up my computer?
[19:18] <znow> anyone worked with capistrano on a ubuntu vm? ive upload my .ssh key from my home dir, etc... and when I try cap deploy:cold it says permission denied (public key) ?
[19:18] <Max229> Pici: What is it for?
[19:18] <Max229> !nobody
[19:18] <reisio> C_K_: it can read and write Mac filesystems, if that's what you mean
[19:18] <Pici> Max229: things that run that don't need access to anything.
[19:19] <Max229> Ah
[19:19] <mfilipe> jcook_5xdata, thanks, <Alt>Button2 (mouse scroll) solves my problem! :)
[19:19] <brianl> jcook_5xdata, thanks
[19:19] <jcook_5xdata> np
[19:19] <ex0> UNITY is more along the lines of A NON-UNION of desktop environment and user argument =\\
[19:19] <C_K_> Basically i am triple booting on my mac atm. And If i make a transition from mac to ubuntu i am wondering if i can store mac files onto a external drive and if ubuntu will read them
[19:20] <avn-matt> NewUbuntuDiscipl just burn a live cd and boot off that, wont install anything
[19:20] <reisio> ex0: I don't get the name, but it's mostly GNOME 3 AFAICT
[19:20] <avn-matt> ex0 explain further please :D
[19:20] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> I would, but I've got an ASUS Eee PC 1001PXD, so it's a netbook. =/ (don't have an external disk drive)
[19:21] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, you can use fat32 or ntfs if you want full cross platform. if you do not have it you will need to install ntfs-fuse on the mac
[19:21] <B0g4r7> heh.  I named my one computer Unity.  Then VMware came out with their Unity mode, and now there's Ubuntu's Unity...too much convergence on one name.
[19:21] <mingdao> I installed 11.10 and updated and installed gnome-shell from restricted ... I have logged out and logged back into Gnome, but when I restart it's back at Unity.
[19:21] <avn-matt> NewUbuntuDiscipl do the usb flash drive
[19:21] <B0g4r7> (and I run VMware and Ubuntu on this named system)
[19:21] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> I'm using a 4 GB Flashdrive right now.
[19:21] <mingdao> How do I make Gnome3 set across reboots?
[19:21] <C_K_> it thought mac could only read ntfs not write to it?
[19:22] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, with fuse it can read write
[19:22] <C_K_> and isn't fat32 restricted to only 4g's per file?
[19:22] <reisio> NewUbuntuDiscipl: you're booted from one right now?
[19:22] <C_K_> ic
[19:22] <avn-matt> NewUbuntuDiscipl check out the patriot usb drives
[19:22] <B0g4r7> C_K_, 2gb per file in my experience.
[19:22] <C_K_> thats a bummer
[19:22] <llutz> fat32 4GB filesizelimit, correct
[19:22] <C_K_> so ubuntu will read fat32 or ntfs?
[19:22] <reisio> no particularly reason you have to use it
[19:22] <reisio> C_K_: Linux reads and writes to more filesystems than any other OS
[19:22] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Well, I'm runnig 2 computers right now. My netbook is idle (that's the one I"m trying to install Ubuntu on) and I'm using my laptop for this IRC.
[19:23] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/
[19:23] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Yep, Llutz
[19:23] <guest-NAJYtL_> hello, tell me please, what is the reason: after upgrade to 11.10 I can't login as me, as a Guest is no problem...
[19:23] <B0g4r7> C_K_, Ubu can read/write fat32, and read ntfs.  I believe writing to ntfs is also possible, but it will not do this "out of the box".
[19:23] <reisio> C_K_: including all the popular ones Windows and Mac OS have used
[19:23] <C_K_> o
[19:23] <C_K_> ok*
[19:24] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> Away From Keyboard......
[19:24] <C_K_> and is there a way to extend the linux partition without deleting and reinstalling?
[19:24] <C_K_> if i ever want to take some space away from the windows partition and give it to ubunut
[19:24] <vfw> C_K_: Yes
[19:24] <jcook_5xdata> B0g4r7, nope it will write NTFS I do it all the time. a few years ago that was true
[19:24] <MonkeyDust> C_K_: gparted, but takes several hours, i tried it
[19:25] <lucas71> tell me please, what is the reason: after upgrade to 11.10 I can't login as me, as a Guest is no problem...
[19:25] <vfw> There are non-destrictutive partitioning tools, (such as gparted)
[19:25] <hacked_kernel> how to make Bash uses Tor  proxy ?
[19:25] <reisio> lucas71: what happens when you try?
[19:25] <reisio> hacked_kernel: bash doesn't really have use of one...
[19:25] <Ceno3x> Hi, I'd like to build some source packages to create a ppa. Is anyone familiar with this process?
[19:25] <C_K_> so theres no program that comes with ubuntu like the disk utility comes with mac/
[19:26] <MonkeyDust> C_K_: depends on what disk utility does
[19:26] <vfw> gparted normally does not take but a minute or two to extend size of a partition.
[19:26] <jpk> Hi, quick question: Is there a way to see which configure flags, or other build-time options, were used when a package maintainer built a package for ubuntu?
[19:26] <vfw> C_K_: gparted
[19:26] <hacked_kernel> reisio, what if i wanna use the shell through proxy?
[19:26] <C_K_> unetbootin just got done and it says it will not boot from a mac
[19:26] <MonkeyDust> vfw: it takes several if you don't want installed data to be erased
[19:26] <C_K_> says insert into a pc
[19:26] <MonkeyDust> several hours*
[19:27] <euh> hello
[19:27] <reisio> hacked_kernel: you tell me, what if you do?
[19:27] <vfw> MonkeyDust: Well, not several hours.  I've used it.
[19:27] <MonkeyDust> me too
[19:27] <vfw> MonkeyDust: ... Maybe if  you have a really slow computer.
[19:27] <euh> is there a way to keep persistent the brightness level in unity ubuntu 11.10 ?
[19:27] <lucas71> reisio, first I had only backgroud and small window of terminal, but now there is nothing - just background with window for logging - the same like I have wrong password, but password is correct
[19:27] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, did you install windows on bbotcamp?
[19:27] <mingdao> You need ntfs3g for *reliable* write ability with NTFS
[19:27] <MonkeyDust> vfw: my laptop is two years old
[19:28] <C_K_> no
[19:28] <NewUbuntuDiscipl> q
[19:28] <C_K_> i used disk utility to make two partitions for linux and windows
[19:28] <reisio> lucas71: ah
[19:28] <lucas71> reisio, but when I'm logging as a Guest  system X-server starts normally
[19:28] <reisio> lucas71: someone had that earlier, let me fetch it from my log
[19:28] <MonkeyDust> vfw: i think we're not talking about the same thing
[19:28] <C_K_> then reformatted one partition in windows then installed
[19:29] <vfw> C_K_: But it is best to not try and make changes to a live system.  You should use a USB or LiveCD.  See: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php
[19:29] <B0g4r7> C_K_, Disk Utility is also a destructive partitioning tool.  Use gparted to resize nondestructively.
[19:29] <CharminTheMoose> Hey all. I'm finding that returning from sleep mode is a bit slow all of a sudden, here's the dmesg output, can anyone make head or tail of it? http://pastebin.ca/2091986
[19:29] <synroda> What can I do with this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/864803
[19:29] <lucas71> reisio, thank you very much, it's very importand for me, because I'll need computer tommorow :(
[19:29] <C_K_> i don't know what that means. but atm i am just trying to get ubuntu onto a flash drive
[19:30] <avn-matt> lucas resio has to do with gconf or something... remember seeing that yesterday, just have to remove those .<dir> conf files for shell
[19:30] <reisio> lucas71: it was a simple fix, IIRC, but I can't remember anything about it, except that it should be in my log somewheres
[19:30] <C_K_> i used unetbootin
[19:30] <C_K_> for mac
[19:30] <reisio> avn-matt: that does sound rightish
[19:30] <C_K_> and it says it will not boot from a mac
[19:30] <B0g4r7> C_K_, sorry, too many conversations.  Ignore my last statement.
[19:30] <lucas71> reisio. "IIRC"? what is mean?
[19:31] <reisio> if I remember correctly
[19:31] <reisio> long to type
[19:31] <avn-matt> reisio lucas71  rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel/
[19:31] <threexk> hello.  How do you remove the bar at the top in Gnome Fallback on 11.10?  Not sure what you call it, it has "File", "Edit", "View", etc.
[19:31] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation this is a older article but it should give you some help
[19:31] <reisio> like stewardesses
[19:31] <TEKLore1> Is it true that if i install Ubuntu my penis will grow an extra inch?
[19:31] <oCean> TEKLore1: stop that nonsense please
[19:31] <Zylum> it's true!
[19:31] <reisio> avn-matt: you cheater :p
[19:31] <avn-matt> reisio lucas71  gconftool-2 --shutdown
[19:32] <Valligan> How change my environement graphical ?
[19:32] <TEKLore1> :P sorry had too...just installed it on a friends laptop after winblows ..blew up... hehe he asked what made it speciall...i told him "that up there" haha he couldnt stop laughing
[19:32] <reisio> just lucas71 that needs it
[19:32] <TEKLore1> totally random :)
[19:32] <meddelaren> anyone get ubuntu desktop 11.10 to run as a vm on xenserver?
[19:32] <reisio> Valligan: to what?
[19:32] <threexk> TEKLore1: depends on how you manage your package
[19:32] <TEKLore1> lol
[19:32] <oCean> TEKLore1: it is called "Windows", please don't use silly misspellings
[19:32] <Valligan> I don't know i have KDE i think
[19:32] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, I remeber something about MACs will not boot from a USb becouse of the bios they use
[19:32] <TEKLore1> i have a package extender
[19:32] <Valligan> To put gnome
[19:32] <Valligan> for example
[19:32] <lucas71> reisio, avn-matt, can I do that from guest level?
[19:33] <euh> how to store permanently the brightness level for unity in 11.10 ?
[19:33] <C_K_> i installed lion from a usb
[19:33] <avn-matt> heh reisio spent like 3 hours yesterday trying to get a terminal window to pull up hhaha
[19:33] <B0g4r7> jcook_5xdata, True for older Macs.  The modern Intel macs should largely all support booting from USB.
[19:33] <threexk> What do you call the "File", "Edit", "View", "Go", "Bookmarks", "Help" bar at the top of the desktop?
[19:33] <C_K_> whats rEFIT for
[19:33] <mingdao> How can I keep the Gnome desktop from reverting to Unity when I reboot?
[19:33] <TEKLore1> oCean no i clearly remember it blowing up to BSoD so im correct...its Winblows....or z if your 733+
[19:33] <lahwran> I'm having a bit of an odd problem - I have a search domain set via nm-applet, and it works after initial connection, but now a few minutes later, it's mysteriously stopped working.
[19:33] <Valligan> I must disconnected for that ?
[19:33] <avn-matt> lucas71 ssh is where i ran it, i never do anything with guest, my guess is you cant sudo on a guest account but i could be wrong...
[19:33] <lahwran> anyone have any insight on such a problem?
[19:33] <reisio> avn-matt: who did? :p
[19:33] <threexk> mingdao: Set your session to Gnome for the user at the login screen.
[19:34] <oCean> TEKLore1: enough, last warning
[19:34] <C_K_> i would just burn ubuntut to a disk but the burner is broken
[19:34] <reisio> lucas71: log out, then CTRL+ALT+F2, do it from there
[19:34] <avn-matt> reisio 11.10 jacked up everything so bad i had a hybrid nautilus shell haha, all my shortcuts were gone
[19:34] <C_K_> so i need to make a bootable usb stick
[19:34] <Valligan> How change my graphical environement ?
[19:34] <reisio> lucas71: +F7 to get back
[19:34] <reisio> avn-matt: ah, sounds fun
[19:34] <lucas71> reisio, you're right...
[19:34] <avn-matt> i figured how to manual set a shortcut for gnome-terminal and when ran it brought up another nautilus window hahaha
[19:34] <Valligan> How change my graphical environement ?
[19:35] <B0g4r7> TEKLore1, if you wanna show your friend some specialness, 'sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager'.  Then run it and turn on "wobbly windows".
[19:35] <C_K_> and that link assume i have a boot cd
[19:35] <avn-matt> still jacked... but as long as i run gnome-shell i can see system aplications dashbar deal....
[19:35] <C_K_> like i said i need to use a usb stick or i can't install ubuntut
[19:35] <reisio> Valligan: to what?
[19:36] <jcook_5xdata> C_K_, http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html there one for mac down at the bottom
[19:36] <euh> C_K_, you can try to use unetbootin to create a bootable usb stick
[19:37] <mingdao> There is no login screen ... it boots directly to the desktop.
[19:37] <avn-matt> i would love to know why ubuntu thought unity was what i needed without a gfx card, did the same thing to 11.04 but was smart enough to enable the unity plugin where it recognized i didnt have a compatible card then switched to gnome...
[19:38] <B0g4r7> mingdao, open the "Login Screen" control panel to change your login options.
[19:38] <C_K_> euh, i did but it said it will not bot from a mac after it finished
[19:38] <curt> hey guys, i just installed a live ubuntu on a usb stick with unetbootin but when i sign in its asking for a login name and password. doesn anyone know how to bypass this or what the password is
[19:38] <TEKLore1> B0g4r7: ye i have that on my desktop, first time every one sees it they thing they are trippin
[19:38] <C_K_> so why does it even install on a mac if it does nothing?
[19:38] <moonunitzappa> Can I downgrade somehow or get rid of unity.  i want to go back to 11.04,  can i do that quickly with out losing any data?
[19:38] <dtigue> avn-matt: you can use lubuntu or aany other version, it's all "Ubuntu" but with a different desktop
[19:38] <avn-matt> but of course .10 removed half of the gnome dependencies and proceeded to try and run unity then default back to a broken gnome was quite enteratining
[19:39] <C_K_> i will try it just incase but i will brb
[19:39] <lsv> curt: try ubuntu
[19:39] <ex0> is it possible to make the stupid unity toolbar stay ontop??
[19:39] <escott> !downgrade | moonunitzappa
[19:39] <TEKLore1> moonunitzappa: downgrade is not possible
[19:40] <TEKLore1> moonunitzappa: whats the problem after upgrade?
[19:40] <Blinkiz> Hello. I have installed Ubuntu 11.10. My surround system is not working. In sound settings, I have chosen Surround 5.1. Pressing "Test Speakers" works but it is in the wrong order. For example, center speaker is right back speaker. How can I fix this?
[19:40] <joepaha> hey want to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.10 pushed the upgrade to 11.04 button in upgrade manage and am getting could not find release notes error HALP!!!
[19:40] <moonunitzappa> Can i get a TURE classic ubuntu on 11.10?    i have gnome panel but dont  have the "system" menu on top panel
[19:40] <moonunitzappa> TEKLore1, ^
[19:40] <fritsch> moonunitzappa: nope
[19:40] <avn-matt> moonunitzappa google that guide, its there, good luck having it not jack something up
[19:40] <JoshOvki> What file are the bootup logs kept in?
[19:40] <TEKLore1> moonunitzappa: should be selection at login
[19:40] <B0g4r7> Yeah, Unity is the reason I will likely not be upgrading to oneric.
[19:41] <avn-matt> joepaha stick with 11.04
[19:41] <moonunitzappa> avn-matt,  ive look at a bunch of guides
[19:41] <joepaha> not on 11.04 on 10.10
[19:41] <euh> is there a way to keep the brithness level of the screen persistent in unity 11.10 ?
[19:41] <joepaha> want to go to 11.04 and then 11.10
[19:41] <avn-matt> moonunitzappa man apt_preferences
[19:41] <avn-matt> im saying just goto 11.04
[19:41] <moonunitzappa> TEKLore1, im in "GNOME CLASSIC"  but i only have the app/places menu  i dont have systems one
[19:41] <joepaha> great
[19:42] <avn-matt> if you do the .04 to .10 you are going to be fighting issues
[19:42] <avn-matt> or fresh install .10
[19:42] <moonunitzappa> I want to go back to 11.04 but would hate do waste all that time and reconfig everything
[19:42] <reddexx> ist k1x da?
[19:42] <lsv> something weird happend to my terminal.  The terminal used to be transparent and you could see the icons on the desktop, but now they do not appear it only shows the background picture.  Any idea how to fix that?
