[19:32] <ZykoticK9> PCTeacher012, think about upgrading your memory and you could use regular Ubuntu, but with only 256 Xubuntu is probably more suited
[19:32] <DPic> whenever i try to boot a LiveCD from this macbook, i can get past the boot menu but then i get this "[5.162415] Not responding. "
[19:32] <naxa>  hi; how much space do i need for installing ubuntu?
[19:32] <PCTeacher012> erUSUL: Okay, Thanks, what is the alternative installer?
[19:32] <Exodus> PCTeacher012, it's usually just called sdram :P
[19:32] <erUSUL> !requirements
[19:32] <erUSUL> !alternate | PCTeacher012
[19:33] <PCTeacher012> exodus: Mine actually says SyncDRam xD
[19:33] <Exodus> PCTeacher012, hehe, that's pretty cool
[19:33] <PCTeacher012> erUSUL: Is it still easy to install with?
[19:33] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: is  a cuses based installer like the first half of the winXP installer
[19:34] <Exodus> PCTeacher012, the installer is going to be very slow because you don't have all that much memory. But after you install it should run pretty quick.
[19:34] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: you navigate with cursosr keys tab and enter/space
[19:34] <PCTeacher012> erUSUL and Exodus: Okay, thanks. My computer ran the LiveCD installer of ubuntu fine
[19:34] <PCTeacher012> LOL
[19:34] <godstar> DPic: have you tried talking to someone in #mac to see if they knew about installing Ubuntu on mac hardware?
[19:34] <Exodus> PCTeacher012, oh nice. Then go ahead and install :)
[19:34] <phix> hey
[19:35] <phix> LjL: <3
[19:35] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: well min req ask for 384 MB ;P
[19:35] <PCTeacher012> PCTeacher012: I already have ubuntu installed, just seeing if it is right for my computer lol
[19:35] <DPic> godstar: didn't even know that was a channel. heading over now
[19:35] <{Onyx}> Guess I'm just going to finish runing the hard drive scan on this thing and let it repair the disk all the way and if that doesn't work forget about it.
[19:35] <godstar> DPic: good luck.
[19:35] <{Onyx}> Just a stupid  40gb IDE disk anyway
[19:35] <PCTeacher012> Odd thing is: Manufacturer says i have 256 MB, but when i went to msinfo32 on windows, it said i had 512 O.o I have never upgraded ram
[19:35] <Exodus> erUSUL, that's the recommended settings for memory
[19:36] <hatchetman82> hi
[19:36] <DPic> godstar: thanks for your help
[19:36] <Exodus> PCTeacher012, it was probably adding the swap to the memory
[19:36] <godstar> DPic: anytime.
[19:36] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: maybe someone elses did :) type « free -m » on a terminal
[19:36] <hatchetman82> how do i go about making 9.10 recognize my wifi card ? (via based)
[19:36] <{Onyx}> actually, since this hdd is jacked anyway and I've got backtrack booted I'm going to play around with its recovery tools
[19:36] <PCTeacher012> erUSUL: Okay, and c/p it?
[19:36] <godstar> DPic: I am interested to know if it installs.

[19:40] <inspire`> ups
[19:40] <inspire`> global commands, not used to xchat yet
[19:40] <Buckie> Exodus I think maybe its because its a server version of ubuntu
[19:40] <rompness_425> erUSUL: same thing, my max rsolution is 640x480 in those settings
[19:41] <Exodus> Buckie, ah, you have server edition
[19:41] <erUSUL> scatterp: gutsy is eoled. repos have been moved to old-releases
[19:41] <Buckie> Exodus so im trying to build alsa from source atm
[19:41] <erUSUL> rompness_425: and you can not change it ?
[19:41] <Exodus> Buckie, I have desktop edition, I have a lot more packages installed, I'm guessing it's a package I have installed that you don't.
[19:41] <scatterp> erUSUL, not sure what that means ..
[19:41] <rompness_425> the only options that I see in there are 640x480 and 320x240 and auto
[19:41] <erUSUL> scatterp: gutsy is too old. repositories are not longer aviable
[19:41] <devned> PCTeacher012 do you help me whit my sis video ?
[19:41] <Buckie> Exodus yea that what i think too, cause i had ubuntu desktop on it and the sound worked without a problem

[19:42] <PCTeacher012> devend: What?
[19:43] <skyn3t> cant*
[19:43] <erUSUL> mlissner: do not think that will work... at least one of the commands will complaint about arguments passed
[19:43] <erUSUL> skyn3t: put the module name in /etc/modules
[19:43] <rompness_425> hello ? any idea what is wrong ?
[19:43] <erUSUL> rompness_425: nope; sorry
[19:43] <PCTeacher012> I hate how i can not use Compiz with this computer D:

[19:44] <PCTeacher012> I dont know soreau. My card probably isnt good enough. nVidia RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro. And devned. Sorry, i dont know how. I dont know crud about linux right now lol
[19:45] <erUSUL> scatterp: if you have a current version of ubuntu just do « sudo aptitude install phpmyadmin »

[19:45] <vtec_> Hello can anyone help me with my sound? When I boot Ubuntu I hear the system sounds when I log on and when the logon screen shows up BUT now for some reason when I open my Music Player or watch a video my sound doesn't work... I'm using ALSA..I've tried this command sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[19:45] <dextro_> http://www.debianadmin.com/linux-ethernet-bonding-configuration.html does this mean i can hook my dsl and cable modem up and load balance my tcp connections over them
[19:45] <vtec_>  and it doesn't really work for me the sound doesn't get restored. Under my volume control I have HDA NVidia (Alsa mixer) and I have Realtek ALC662 rec1 (OSS Mixer), can anyone help? Thanks
[19:45] <skyn3t> erSuL : what u mean just add "eepro100" on modules
[19:46] <erUSUL> skyn3t: just that will make the module be modprobed on boot
[19:46] <erUSUL> !tab | skyn3t
[19:46] <mlissner> erUSUL: Actually, I think it works. I just checked in htop, and bc had a nice value of 10. I'm guessing I DID nice iotop, which in turn niced whatever program it called.
[19:46] <Growlithe> vtec_, Have you tried the OSS Mixer?
[19:46] <erUSUL> mlissner: ok
[19:47] <skyn3t> let me try and i get back to ya
[19:47] <skyn3t> 1 sec
[19:47] <PCTeacher012> Is there anyway to.. i dont know... Replicate compiz without using it?
[19:47] <scatterp> erUSUL, that brings up errors about removing phpmyadmin maybe i already have it
[19:47] <mlissner> erUSUL: Yeah, weird, but it seems to work.
[19:47] <erUSUL> vtec_: make sure you configure all apps to use pulseaudio/esd output
[19:47] <owen1> can i list the apps i installed, but only the ones that appear on the application menu?
[19:47] <vtec_> Growlithe: Yes I have tried to use the OSS Mixer as device and it doesn't work, I removed PulseAudio before becasue I was suggested to, and it worked fine without PA..that was a few weeks ago
[19:48] <PCTeacher012> What is a good place to find out all the technical stuff to do with linux? Because i knew tons about windows, and how to fix almost anything on it, but on linux, i dont know crud. Where could i learn how to?
[19:48] <virtuelv> does anyone have an alternative keyserver (or alternative means of getting a key for a ppa?)
[19:48] <stinky> can anyone recommend a nice HTML editor? I have troubles with NVU and kompozer thanks to GTK version. and open office makes my pages HTML really messy. Bluefish is not much help either.
[19:48] <DPic> godstar: they were useless =[
[19:48] <scatterp> erUSUL, that brings up errors about removing phpmyadmin maybe i already have it but when i try to visit <IP_ADDRESS>/phpmyadmin/ i get a 404 error
[19:48] <stinky> PCTeacher012, google is my best source
[19:49] <PCTeacher012> stinky: haha okay, but i want like an all in one resource (site) that can help me lol :P
[19:49] <virtuelv> stinky: in general, visual HTML editors are completely useless
[19:49] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: have a problem, fix it. read blogs. planet ubuntu. same way you did on windows.
[19:49] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: how you learned all the stuff you know about windos ? ... let me guess using it over the years ;)
[19:49] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: there are not magic web pages/books. only experience :)
[19:50] <stinky> PCTeacher012, I was not being sarcastic.. sorry some people say to google stuff to be rude
[19:50] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: try to do something difficult you don't know how to do.
[19:50] <PCTeacher012> ;) Yea, haha erUSUL. One more question. Wine: How do i configure it to open ALL EXEs?
[19:50] <scatterp> PCTeacher012, google helps a lot
[19:50] <PCTeacher012> Without right click, open with wine application launcher
[19:50] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: right click an exe > properties > open with, choose wine
[19:50] <scatterp> PCTeacher012, click on the exe open with the first time and tick dont ask again
[19:51] <erUSUL> PCTeacher012: once installed it will do. at least it does here... the faxt that it opens them does not guarantee the pexe will work ok
[19:51] <scatterp> erUSUL, that brings up errors about removing phpmyadmin maybe i already have it but when i try to visit <IP_ADDRESS>/phpmyadmin/ i get a 404 error
[19:51] <erUSUL> !appdb | PCTeacher012
[19:51] <stinky> PCTeacher012, look in nautalis , rightclick on an exe and it will allow you to change what application opens it
[19:51] <skyn3t> erUSUL : its work :)
[19:51] <skyn3t> thanks man
[19:51] <stinky> PCTeacher012, it is underr the EXE files prefrences
[19:51] <PCTeacher012> oh, and who needed the key update? and thank, i got it working
[19:51] <erUSUL> !lamp | scatterp never installed it myself maybe here there are some tips
[19:51] <erUSUL> skyn3t: no problem
[19:52] <skyn3t> :)
[19:52] <stinky> So there are not any useful html editors for linux? could someone suggest a good windows one? I have wine up and running good.
[19:52] <erUSUL> !html | stinky
[19:53] <stinky> thanks erUSUL  :)
[19:53] <owen1> can i list the apps i installed, but only the ones that appear on the application menu?
[19:53] <owen1> i want to see all the packages i, as a user can use. not kernel/internal packages.
[19:53] <erUSUL> skyn3t: aptana studio ? (eclipse based)
[19:53] <mlissner> owen1: No easy way that I know of, no.
[19:53] <PCTeacher012> because to update a key code, open terminal, type sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys KEYCODE (Replace KEYCODE with the key they gave you)
[19:54] <PCTeacher012> I had to do that when i had linux mint lol
[19:54] <owen1> mlissner: ok
[19:54] <shai> How can I use ~/.gtkrc-2.0 to change the font size inside applications (like gnome-terminal)? When I use gtk-font-name = "geneva 12" ; it just changes the size of the menu fonts.
[19:54] <PCTeacher012> It doesnt have Software Sources T_T
[19:54] <mlissner> owen1: It's possible (likely) that the menu config is somewhere in a file, but from there you'd have to extract it and such...probably not an easy task.
[19:54] <HazeFaze> hi, if I copy some files via a cp -rvp /myFiles* /destination, how can I see the Mbit/s of this copy command? is there a tool I can pipe the command through?
[19:54] <erUSUL> stinky: aptana studio ? (eclipse based) <<<
[19:54] <jrib> owen1: maybe something like: for x in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop; do dpkg -S $x; done     is close enough?
[19:54] <erUSUL> skyn3t: sorry; the aptana tip was not for you
[19:54] <mlissner> HazeFaze: you might try iotop
[19:54] <jrib> HazeFaze: use rsync
[19:55] <SGottl7227> hi room
[19:55] <phix> hi SGottl7227
[19:55] <erUSUL> HazeFaze: pv can measure the data through a pipe. but you will have to use a more convoluted command
[19:55] <ssmy> shai: why not use system > preferences > appearance > fonts to change size?
[19:56] <SGottl7227> how come when i watch the official web site for 2012 trailer.. when i make the image full screen it starts to flicker
[19:56] <shai> ssmy, Because that doesn't affect on apps I start via SSH X11 Forwarding
[19:56] <ssmy> shai I see. hmm
[19:56] <_raven_> how to install a hauppauge analogue-cable pci card? tnx...
[19:56] <SGottl7227> the abode flash works fine at small size
[19:56] <HazeFaze> erUSUL: thank you I look through the man page, thx mlissner and jrib too
[19:56] <erUSUL> HazeFaze: something like tar cpf - /myFiles* | pv | tar xf - -C /destination
[19:56] <owen1> jrib: i'll try it. thanks
[19:56] <stinky> erUSUL, you rock, thank you very much :)
[19:57] <erUSUL> stinky: no problem
[19:57] <skyn3t> erUSUL : no prob u already helped me :)
[19:58] <natrixnatrix89> Hi. I have this: http://www2.oregonscientific.com/shop/product.asp?cid=2&scid=84&pid=83 weather station. It has a serial port. and im thinking how it would be possible to connect it to a linux desktop that would send the information to mySQL server every 5 minutes, so the current weather could be seen on a web-page..
[19:58] <warbio> What program shall I use for a virtual windows xp client?
[19:58] <PCTeacher012> Can BASH fix like almost every problem?  I have that problem too, actually.
[19:58] <HappyHobo> BASH can fix everything but marital problems and impotence.
[19:58] <SGottl7227> something wrong with the adobe player at full screen on 2012 web page.. the official page
[19:59] <PCTeacher012> HappyHobo: LOL
[19:59] <mlissner> HappyHobo: How are you playing last fm?
[19:59] <natrixnatrix89> happyHobo. make a bash script
[19:59] <natrixnatrix89> that would sleep 3 hours and then killall lastfm
[19:59] <erUSUL> natrixnatrix89: you will have to find out the protocol the station uses if it is simple enough maybe you can cook up a script to do what you want
[19:59] <mlissner> warbio: I think most peopole use the terminal client
[19:59] <PCTeacher012> Why wont Youtube videos play correctly -_- D:
[19:59] <HappyHobo> mlissner: I'm playing it from the menu normally
[20:00] <stinky> PCTeacher012, do you not have sound?
[20:00] <phix> PCTeacher012: Because you are doing it wrong
[20:00] <mlissner> HappyHobo: You mean from within Firefox?
[20:00] <natrixnatrix89> erUSUL: where do i find the protocol? And i have no experience with serial ports+linux
[20:00] <PCTeacher012> stinky: I do, but the sound is very very very jumpy
[20:00] <warbio> mlissner: ok, how do I use/start it?
[20:00] <natrixnatrix89> erUSUL: is there some documentation I could read?
[20:00] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: google is your friend http://www.wviewweather.com/
[20:00] <lizzzy> What's a better IDE for java development other than eclipse?
[20:01] <lizzzy> on ubuntu.
[20:01] <PCTeacher012> phix: Truly that does not help at all.
[20:01] <mlissner> warbio: tsclient, I believe should start it. I have it listed under applications > Internet > terminal client
[20:01] <HappyHobo> mlissner: lastfm is a separate player from firefox
[20:01] <stinky> PCTeacher012, I had problems installing the Adobe flash package, I got rid of it, and installed it from synaptic to fix my sound. Might be a diffrent problem than you are having though
[20:01] <PCTeacher012> The video i am trying to watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQbGhImpMKI
[20:01] <natrixnatrix89> ssmy: thanks
[20:01] <PCTeacher012> stinky: Okay, ill try it out
[20:01] <jumbers> PCTeacher012: Are you at the latest Flash version?
[20:01] <PCTeacher012> How exactly do i do it? I installed Gnash instead of adobe for some reason
[20:01] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: np. looks like it does everything you need too.
[20:01] <mlissner> HappyHobo: Ah, OK. You can also play last fm music through amarok, FF, banshee, etc.
[20:02] <warbio> mlissner: ok thanks for the help
[20:02] <mlissner> warbio: np
[20:02] <stinky> sudo apt-get remove gnash I think
[20:02] <erUSUL> lizzzy: netbeans ?
[20:02] <stinky> or remoev it from synaptic
[20:02] <natrixnatrix89> ssmy yep and looks like it supports my station
[20:02] <HappyHobo> lastfm player is easiest.  I want to start the player and then have it turn off after half an hour.
[20:02] <natrixnatrix89> ssmy: did you google that?
[20:02] <PCTeacher012> jumbers: IDK, ill install it from their site real quuck. stinky, ill run though it
[20:02] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: given how well it supports it, I want one. would be so cool.
[20:02] <lizzzy> erUSUL: It's too heavy. Something made for ubuntu???
[20:03] <PCTeacher012> and then sudo apt-get install flash
[20:03] <PCTeacher012> ?
[20:03] <stinky> PCTeacher012, search for gnash in synaptic right click on it, and select to completely remove it, then you can install the flash
[20:03] <HappyHobo> no gnash
[20:03] <stinky> sudo synaptic
[20:03] <PCTeacher012> stinky: I did it thought terminal
[20:03] <erUSUL> lizzzy: and editor + the terminal is the unix way ;P
[20:03] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: yes. exact query: "weather station oregon scientific linux"
[20:03] <HappyHobo> gnash is totally free but totally junk
[20:03] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: first result
[20:03] <erUSUL> lizzzy: maybe emacs and a special mode
[20:03] <HappyHobo> go with the non-free flash it always works
[20:03] <natrixnatrix89> ssmy: thanks again.. sorry im  a noob..
[20:03] <jumbers> PCTeacher012: The package is called adobe-flashplugin
[20:03] <PCTeacher012> jumbers: Thank you, installing now
[20:04] <ssmy> natrixnatrix89: np, we all have to learn. been there, done that.
[20:04] <stinky> make sure you have firefox closed
[20:04] <erUSUL> lizzzy: http://jdee.sourceforge.net/
[20:04] <lizzzy> erUSUL: Haha.. I'd use the terminal way, but I like debugging with an IDE better. Emacs? Hmm.. ok. Lemme check it out then.
[20:04] <mlissner> HappyHobo: Hmmm...I don't know if the lastfm player has command line arguments to stop it without suspending or killing the app, but if you ran something like sleep 30 && killall lastfm, that would terminate the program after 30 seconds.
[20:04] <jumbers> HappyHobo: Obviously it doesn't in this case
[20:04] <PCTeacher012> jumbers: I got an error. Ill just install from their site
[20:04] <jumbers> Er, misread what you said
[20:05] <SGottl7227> if you make the movie larger at this site.. it is flickering all over and unwatchable
[20:05] <SGottl7227> http://www.whowillsurvive2012.com/
[20:05] <jumbers> PCTeacher012: What error?
[20:05] <mlissner> HappyHobo: You might also try doing a man lastfm, and seeing if you can stop it via commandline.
[20:05] <SGottl7227> something wrong with adobe flash player and ubuntu
[20:06] <PCTeacher012> This package is currently referred to by another package, or is only avaible from another source
[20:06] <PCTeacher012> but im installing its .deb
[20:06] <jumbers> Okay
[20:06] <SGottl7227> is there a fix out there?
[20:06] <HappyHobo> always a fix
[20:06] <SGottl7227> or should i just trash my computer?
[20:06] <SGottl7227> http://www.whowillsurvive2012.com/.. it is very choppy full size
[20:06] <erUSUL> lizzzy: also written in java there is jedit
[20:07] <ssmy> SGottl7227: compiz enabled?

[20:07] <emydvx> hi
[20:07] <emydvx>
[20:07] <emydvx> you can bring back to the default my network with ubuntu?
[20:07] <paulkm> hey guys, has qt creator been removed? can't seem to see it in the package list anymore :s
[20:07] <Etrai> Hello! I'm possibly dim-witted but I'm struggeling to get the network to work the way I want for virtualized computer running on my Ubuntu server. What I'm trying to achieve is guest networks acting as if they were physically attached to my switch, i.e. using my ISPs DHCP or having static LAN-addresses. (sketch, kindof: http://vault.etrai.net/net.png ) I've tried googling for two days now without result...any ideas?
[20:08] <erUSUL> lizzzy: http://java-source.net/open-source/ides
[20:08] <tdw> irc://irc.freenode.net/#transmission
[20:08] <grawity> erUSUL: What VM software are you using?
[20:08] <tdw> Oups.
[20:08] <grawity> tdw: Type /join #transmission
[20:08] <morgan101> what is studio 9,40
[20:08] <PCTeacher012> Good! Adobe flash player made it full and fast! Thanks :D:D:D
[20:09] <stinky> erUSUL, I just found screem, it is a really nice website development suite. it is even supported by ubuntu :)
[20:09] <jumbers> PCTeacher012: Yeah, Adobe finally decided to make a working Linux plugin
[20:09] <SGottl7227> but what about http://www.whowillsurvive2012.com/  this site.. does it work on full screen for u?
[20:09] <erUSUL> grawity: VM as VBox ? none really when i try some iso i use kvm
[20:09] <emydvx>
[20:09] <emydvx> Browse more no, I ruined my configuration ..
[20:09] <SGottl7227> i am talking about the video
[20:09] <PCTeacher012> jumbers: Glad i got linux at a good time :)
[20:09] <erUSUL> stinky: screem was mentioned in the factoid...
[20:09] <erUSUL> !html
[20:09] <grawity> erUSUL: Wait, wrong nick again. Ignore that.
[20:10] <stinky> lol! I must be blind
[20:10] <ssmy> SGottl7227: you probably need to change one setting. install advanced desktop effects settings from add/remove. open it System > PReferences > COmpizconfig settings manager. go to general options. toggle unredirect fullscreen windows
[20:10] <emydvx> !html
[20:10] <NoCode> What package is glxgears installed in?
[20:10] <SGottl7227> let me try
[20:10] <morgan101> can any one tell if i install 9.40 befor studio
[20:10] <NoCode> or rather packaged in.
[20:10] <ssmy> SGottl7227: also, "Windows doesn't do that" doesn't help. quit whining and people will be more willing to help
[20:11] <DPic> godstar: i'm going to try the alternate install CD but i'm worried because i won't be able to test the graphics with that until it's installed and i had a problem with that on an iMac at my school
[20:11] <PCTeacher012> Final question for right now maybe. Is it possible to make my camera/mic to work on linux? The camera/mic is a PS2 Logitech EyeToy
[20:11] <PCTeacher012> I know it works for PC Lol
[20:11] <test34> which webcam would you recommend?
[20:11] <NoCode> !glxgears
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> Etrai: you need to bridge the connection, they'd need to get dhcp from the lan then go through the host
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> !webcam | test34
[20:11] <ZykoticK9> NoCode, it's in MESA somewhere - not sure specifically what package
[20:12] <erUSUL> NoCode: mesa-utils
[20:12] <NoCode> mesa-utils
[20:12] <NoCode> yes
[20:12] <NoCode> thanks
[20:12] <stinky> PCTeacher012, check this out:
[20:12] <denis|> hi, folks.
[20:12] <stinky> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1228554
[20:12] <stinky> hi denis|
[20:12] <PCTeacher012> stinky: Thanks, checking now
[20:12] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: google is your friend. looks like it. have you tried just plugging it in?
[20:12] <denis|> does anybody have glibc-2.10.1 installed ?
[20:13] <denis|> on x86
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> !anybody | denis|
[20:13] <PCTeacher012> stinky: I really do not want to buy a new webcam lol.
[20:13] <Etrai> ActionParsnip: thanks! but if I'm running servers, say web servers, on both the host and one or more of the VMs how would this work out? because I'm thinking "then go through the host" means using IPTables and forwarding, yes?
[20:13] <PCTeacher012> ssmy: Of course, it was plugged in when i installed. I will unplug then replug it
[20:13] <denis|> ubottu: ok, i need to now, if a package called ace works for somebody with glibc-2.10.1 on x86
[20:14] <PCTeacher012> Nevermind O_O It was not plugged in --_-
[20:14] <stinky> yea, he mentions why it did not work PCTeacher012 , there might be a workaround somewhere dont give up
[20:14] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: always worth a try to make sure it isn't the obvious.
[20:14] <ssmy> PCTeacher012: =) see?
[20:14] <PCTeacher012>  ssmy: LOL, i always have it plugged in, i though :P
[20:14] <PCTeacher012> and stinky: KK
[20:14] <PCTeacher012> I just gota find the mic -_-
[20:15] <_raven_> how to install a hauppauge analogue-cable pci card? tnx...
[20:15] <stinky> PCTeacher012,  look in the audio controls, and make sure the mic is not muted, some devices are muted by default for some reason
[20:15] <PCTeacher012> plugged in now
[20:16] <PCTeacher012> uhh,,, Stinky, where do i find that?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Etrai: no, you need to create a bridge between the physical NIC and the guest NIC
[20:16] <krainbolt> Is there a better browser for watching Flash movies (Like Hulu) for Ubuntu? Firefox is incredibly slow after a time period and it pisses me off.
[20:16] <stinky> PCTeacher012,  look in the system try, the speaker icon
[20:16] <stinky> tray
[20:16] <PCTeacher012> just found it haha
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Etrai: the guests will get a LAN IP which will make them visible on the LAN as a proper PC, you acn then perform port forwarding as you wish
[20:17] <ZykoticK9> _raven_, the easiest thing to do might be to install mythbuntu-control-centre and then you'll have a GUI way to setup your TV card.  Good luck man.
[20:17] <PCTeacher012> stinky: I changed it to: Sony Corporation Logitech Eyetoy Camera USB (ALSA) and when i click test i hear a quick fuzz
[20:17] <_raven_> ok tnx
[20:18] <stinky> nice try talking into it
[20:18] <stinky> it might be working
[20:18] <paulkm> so no one knows if qt-creator has been removed somehow?
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> !info qt-creator
[20:19] <erUSUL> paulkm: seems you are wrong is alive and well ;)
[20:19] <PCTeacher012> stinky: I went to sound recorder, nothin :(
[20:19] <Exodus|Away> paulkm, it's best to install qtcreator from the qt site then the package
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> paulkm: seems to be around
[20:19] <paulkm> E: Couldn't find package qt-creator
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> paulkm: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install qt-creator
[20:20] <paulkm> is my package list out of date then?
[20:20] <erUSUL> paulkm: are you in karmic perhaps ?
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> paulkm: make sure you have universe repos enabled
[20:20] <PCTeacher012> Woah, stinky. It is working now.... But it makes my voice uber high and squeaky
[20:20] <erUSUL> paulkm: or maybe you have universe not enabled for some reason ...
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: its in karmic too ;)
[20:21] <stinky> PCTeacher012, tweak the volume to 50% it might help
[20:21] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: ok ;)
[20:21] <stinky> the mic volume
[20:21] <PCTeacher012> stinky: K, i am trying that
[20:21] <paulkm> erUSUL: Hm where can I enable that? or is there a command line to enable it?
[20:21] <SuspectZero> if i want to edit the init scripts of an ubuntu basted distro, where would i find them?>
[20:21] <erUSUL> paulkm: System>Admin>software Sources
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> paulkm: gksudo synaptic     click the sources and enable the repo
[20:21] <erUSUL> paulkm: in the first tab
[20:21] <erUSUL> SuspectZero: /etc/init.d/
[20:22] <ZykoticK9> SuspectZero, /etc/init.d - be careful editing that stuff
[20:22] <erUSUL> SuspectZero: would help to know what you wan to do
[20:22] <PCTeacher012> Oklay, i did it agian. It is like... fast forwarded and still squeaky
[20:22] <PCTeacher012> is it just the program? The default with ubuntu
[20:22] <SuspectZero> erUSUL, i wanna edit the initramfs of the ubuntu based distro so taht it supports booting off iso
[20:22] <darkham> how can i use smbclient?
[20:22] <PCTeacher012> 9.04 ubuntu
[20:22] <darkham> i can't mount properly my share
[20:23] <erUSUL> SuspectZero: /etc/initramfs-tools/ then
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> darkham: press ctrl+L and type: smb://<servername>/<share>
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> darkham: E.g.     smb://fileserver/music
[20:23] <Quasar1048> Hey, does anyone have knowledge of setting up irssi with ssl?
[20:24] <paulkm> ok its updating the packages list now :)
[20:24] <SuspectZero> erUSUL, thanks i'll look into it now
[20:24] <zleap> Quasar1048, does port 6697 use ssl
[20:24] <Etrai> ActionParsnip: ok, but that is what I'm trying to avoid =) I would like to have my guests act and appear as if they were physically connected to my network switch, which is hooked up directly to my internet socket (RJ-45 in the wall). I currently have a couple of things attached to the switch (xbox, some windows boxes, etc.) which are configured to either use the internet connection (DHCP) or LAN (static IP) or both (lik
[20:24] <Etrai> e the one I'm using now). Is this possible?
[20:24] <darkham> ActionParsnip, thanx
[20:24] <erUSUL> SuspectZero: no problem
[20:24] <Etrai> (sorry for novell)
[20:24] <Quasar1048> zleap: its depends on the servers... one uses 6697, another 9999 and one uses 7000- nonne of them will connect
[20:25] <zleap> ok
[20:25] <zleap> not sure then
[20:25] <Quasar1048> I do have a firewall(guarddog) but I did set it to allow those ports...
[20:25] <natrixnatrix89> There are those cheap chinese mobile phones that run windows mobile. Is it possible to install linux on such cell phone? Or there is no linux operating system made for a cell phone. I know there was sth made for ipod. Is there anything to replace windows mobile?
[20:25] <Quasar1048> or... perhaps I just thought i did?
[20:26] <stinky> natrixnatrix89, try googleing your celphone model# and the words "install linux", that is how i found out how to install linux on my phone
[20:26] <PCTeacher012> I'm following a guide to use it
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> Etrai: they will be attatched to the LAN. unless you configure your host as a router then have the guests using the host as a gateway, using the LAN is much cleaner
[20:26] <Etrai> ActionParsnip: ok, thanks alot! =D
[20:27] <evilxhwnd> sysinfo:pregs
[20:28] <natrixnatrix89> stinky: really - tuxmobil.org
[20:28] <PCTeacher012> It is actually in the product list for working webcams. Under sony. I looked under logitech :P
[20:28] <darkham> ActionParsnip, i'm on xubuntu karmic beta
[20:29] <edgar_> xubuntu? hmm...
[20:29] <darkham> i can't press ctr+l
[20:29] <stinky> natrixnatrix89, yes, I think that is the site I found
[20:29] <nerdy_kid> i know this is off subject, but anyone know if 'resealing' a windows install (via sysprep) deletes user data?

[20:33] <Exodus|Away> qt-creator doesn't exist for hardy
[20:33] <mr> hey guys
[20:33] <mr> hey guys
[20:33] <Exodus|Away> qt-creator was released around this year
[20:33] <Quasar1048> If anyone can think of anything realted to my irssi ssl issue, please pm me. Thanks.
[20:33] <grawity> {Onyx}1: I tend to stay away from anything with "super" or "ultimate" in its name.
[20:33] <switch10__> {Onyx}1: who makes it. Norton?
[20:34] <Exodus|Away> I'm a qt developer, until ubuntu gets a meta package that contains everything qt-creator (download version) has, it's not worth installing as a ubuntu package.
[20:34] <stinky> grawity, you dont like super mario!?!? lol
[20:34] <{Onyx}1> Na, just a collection of diagnostic tools

[20:40] <Ridders> does anyone know if for ATI cards theres a linux graphic card manager?
[20:40] <Ridders> specially the ATI hd 4870

[20:53] <Ridders> switch10__: when i try that, it say desktop effects could not be enabled
[20:53] <switch10__> Ridders: do you have ur hardware drivers installed?
[20:53] <brandan> grturner I don't think so, what is that?
[20:53] <iggykoopa> Ridders: it probably means you don't have the right driver for your card, or your card doesn't support 3d acceleration
[20:54] <{Onyx}1> Anyone else having issues with 9.04 repositories today?
[20:54] <brandan> No packages with the request plugins found. The requested plugins are:

[20:55] <taylor_> I have a Broadcom, bcm4311 network card. I followed these instruction located here, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx. Everthing seem to work ok. Do I have to create a new wireless connection?
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: to connect it you need a cable or bluetooth, not software
[20:56] <{Onyx}1> Looks like it may have been the Chicago mirror having issues.
[20:56] <brandan> grturner what do you think I can do? I just wanna listen to my music...
[20:56] <switch10__> Ridders: go to hardware drivers under administration tab. Let it search for proper drivers
[20:56] <ubuntistas> i have a cable and i need a software actionparsnip
[20:56] <grturner> brandan,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: well, why do you want to connect the 2?
[20:57] <KeiAiAm> hi @ll
[20:57] <Ridders> switch10__: it doesnt find any, i have a xfx ATI HD 4870
[20:57] <ubuntistas> yup actioparsnip
[20:57] <Chun1> Every time I boot up I have to restart pulse audio to get any sound. Any reason why this might be?
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: connecting the cable between the 2 systems will "connect them"
[20:57] <brandan> grturner i click the link on that site and it says
[20:57] <ubuntistas> i have a class in 15 min so i need to transfer some files actionparsnio
[20:57] <brandan> Could not find package 'ubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: untyil yuo outlay why you want tem connected we can't advise further
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: ok so you should ghave said that rather than ambiguos "connect"
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: plug the usb between then check in places in nautilus
[20:58] <switch10__> Ridders: if that is a slightly older ati card and you are on distro 9.04 or above, there are no drivers for it. I use the fglx drivers with my ati card. I'm on 8.10
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: or if it doesnt automount, then you will need to run: sudo fdisk -l     to check the partition name and manually mount
[20:59] <brandan> grturner any other options ?
[20:59] <grturner> umm... standby
[20:59] <ubuntistas> so actionparsnip no signal of my usb
[20:59] <brandan> grturner no problem :-)
[21:00] <taylor_> I have a Broadcom, bcm4311 network card. I followed these instruction located here, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx. Everything seem to work ok. Do I have to create a new wireless connection?
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: does it have an internal SD card?
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: and does your system have a card reader?
[21:00] <ubuntistas> no unfortunately
[21:00] <Ridders> switch10__: the card is like one of ATI's top cards, so are no saying theres still no drivers for it on linux yet?
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> hmm
[21:00] <ubuntistas> i dunno
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Ridders: cutting edge vga cards dont get supported immediately
[21:01] <Quasar1048> Here's a graphics question... my desktop effects are enabled... but when I check the highest settings, things get strange... like when I grab a window nad drag it around, its like jello, bouncing around... that's not supposed to happen, right?
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> ubuntistas: if yuo run: dmesg | tail    does the system show a reaction to the connection
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> Quasar1048: you have wobbly windows enabled
[21:01] <switch10__> Ridders: Possibly not. Ati is not very Linux friendly
[21:01] <Ridders> ActionParsnip: its not vga though, its dvi
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> Quasar1048: run ccsm and disable it
[21:02] <Quasar1048> ActionParsnip: Ah...
[21:02] <Quasar1048> ccsM/
[21:02] <grturner> brandan, system > administration > software sources; under ubuntu software make sure that multiverse is checked. if it's not, check the box next to it and then click close
[21:02] <Quasar1048> ccsm?*
[21:02] <Ridders> switch10__: that sucks
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> Ridders: video graphic accellerator
[21:02] <Ridders> switch10__: been waiting ages for the drivers to come out for this card
[21:02] <erUSUL> Quasar1048: that's suppossed to happen yes
[21:02] <switch10__> Ridders: I don't much like it either. I will never buy an ati card again
[21:02] <Quasar1048> ActionParsnip: whats ccs,?
[21:02] <erUSUL> !ccsm | Quasar1048
[21:02] <ubuntistas> yes actionparsnip
[21:03] <Ridders> switch10__: yh agreed
[21:03] <yellowrooster> how do i know which version of gdm is on my comp
[21:03] <erUSUL> yellowrooster: apt-cache policy gdm
[21:03] <erUSUL> !version > yellowrooster
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> Ridders: you can use the open driver until it gets supported but buying the latest hardware isnt usually a good call in Linux due to companies getting more cash supporting windows so they intelliently plow more time into that
[21:03] <Quasar1048> Okay... I have ccsm already...
[21:03] <Roasted> Is it possible for Samba to somehow auto-authenticate with XP users on local accounts as long as they're in the same workgroup?
[21:03] <Quasar1048> Hmm.. let me look and see if i can find it...
[21:03] <yellowrooster> erUSUL: thanks!
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> Quasar1048: i know, you need to run it to turn off wobbly windows
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Quasar1048: alt+f2   type ccsm   press enter
[21:04] <stefg_> !roasted
[21:04] <stefg_> !samba | roasted
[21:04] <Roasted> yeah, thanks.
[21:04] <Roasted> that's kind of why I asked here, to get actual user's opinions on it
[21:04] <brandan> grturner i dont see multiverse under any of those tabs in the Software Sources menu....
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: you need top add the same username and password to the windows system
[21:04] <brandan> grturner unless I am not looking right.
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: then it will be ok afaik
[21:05] <Roasted> ActionParsnip - I know. I have the XP users added on my Ubuntu machine.
[21:05] <Quasar1048> Oh, no I don't.. I'll install it...
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: its the weakness of workgroups, no central management for users
[21:05] <Roasted> ActionParsnip - But when the user logs in to their XP computer, and goes start - run - \\myserver, they have to log in again. I'm wondering if there's a way to auto-authenticate that portion
[21:05] <{Onyx}1> hmmm apt is having a hard time hitting a couple repositories.
[21:05] <Ridders> ActionParsnip: wheres the open driver for it, and will i be able to use the desktop effects etc?
[21:05] <ikhider> Hey guys, I installed my wifi card's driver with ndiswrapper but still iwconfig shows no wireless extensions, any ideas why?
[21:06] <grturner> brandan, the line that needs to be checked is 'software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)'
[21:06] <stefg_> Roasted: that's possible, but that's a question for ##windows
[21:06] <zebastian> Help,  I am having trouble making a backup of my system to my external hard drive, I did rsync -avh --delete --stats /home/sebastian/ /media/SAMSUNG/mybackup and i got a whole bunch of outputs with these errors rsync: chgrp "/media/SAMSUNG/mybackup/.icons/Mac4Lin_Icons_v0.4/scalable/mimetypes/application-x-rar.png" failed: Operation not permitted (1)
[21:06] <brandan> grturner oh wait, do u mean,  "Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)  ?
[21:06] <zebastian> far as i know the hard drive is mounted
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: if the username matches the one on ubuntu and the passwords match it should be ok. not sure i dont use windows in workgroups, too much legwork
[21:06] <Roasted> stefg - really? I thought it would be a samba setting.
[21:06] <grturner> brandan, yep
[21:06] <brandan> grturner yes its checked already
[21:06] <Roasted> ACtionParsnip - What, you have a domain set up at home??
[21:06] <maniel> hi
[21:06] <Quasar1048> Cool, installed! :D I'm glad I asked that, cause I always thought it was a driver issue...
[21:06] <ubuntistas> how can i connect my cellphone with my pc is any software available?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Ridders: not sure, try the radeon driver, if thats bad, try the ati driver
[21:07] <sebsebseb> hi
[21:07] <Roasted> ActionParsnip - and hte users login credentials for their samba accounts match identically to their XP local logins, yet it doesnt carry over to Samba. They still have to log in again there.
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: i dont use windows, i use to have a domain way back when
[21:07] <grturner> brandon, try opening terminal and typing 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras'
[21:07] <brandan> grturner whats next?
[21:07] <erUSUL> zebastian: probably you do not have the permissions to writte in the backupdisk
[21:07] <sunny__> helloooooo
[21:07] <zebastian> erUSUL: how do i get hte permissions? i used sudo
[21:07] <zebastian> it worked the first couple of times i backed up
[21:08] <Rabbitbunny> So... When Brasero says it doesn't have the right plugin, what plugin do I need? The track plays perfectly in rythmbox.
[21:08] <erUSUL> zebastian: what filesystem is used on the backup disk ?
[21:08] <maniel> how to make poackages building use some -j parameter for simultaneous jobs?
[21:08] <zebastian> erUSUL: how do i check that?
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: you could mount the share at bootup and allow all users to read/write with uid=1000
[21:08] <zebastian> erUSUL: msdos
[21:08] <erUSUL> zebastian: grep -i samsung /proc/mounts
[21:09] <erUSUL> zebastian: well you can not store unix permissions/ownership on a vfat filesystem
[21:09] <zebastian> erUSUL: /dev/sdd1 /media/SAMSUNG vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0077,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8 0 0
[21:09] <stefg_> Roasted: hmm... it's sort of in-between. unix accounts are not samba accounts... if you don't want a unix account for every windows user on your system you have to use ldap. If you need a file-server and want some preconfigured ldap i'd look at !ebox
[21:09] <erUSUL> zebastian: you have to use tar to do the backup
[21:09] <Roasted> ActionParsnip - Yeah, I thought about that, but I dual boot and I'm not always in Ubuntu, so I didnt want to have them face any error messages. Every night at 4 am is when the backup occurs, and Im in bed by 1am latest so Im always in ubuntu by the time they run the backup
[21:09] <zebastian> erUSUL: tar ?
[21:09] <Quasar1048> Thanks guys! SImple-ccsm did the trick!
[21:09] <zebastian> please elaborate
[21:09] <erUSUL> zebastian: and vfat has a 4GiB limit on filesize so
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: Then you'll need to manage tht for the backup to complete
[21:10] <zebastian> erUSUL: tar?
[21:10] <erUSUL> zebastian: tar cvzpf /media/SAMSUNG/mybackup.tgz /home/sebastian/
[21:11] <Roasted> ActionParsnip - I suppose I could just hit "remember this" in the password box for each user when they go to start - run - \\myserver, haaaa....
[21:11] <erUSUL> zebastian: vfat has a 4GiB limit on filesize so maybe not even that would work (if the backupfie is too large)
[21:11] <zebastian> erUSUL: if i copy and paste that into the terminal it will do a backup of everything on the laptop?
[21:11] <grturner> brandan, try opening terminal and typing 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras'
[21:11] <brandan> Ubuntu wont play any MP3s for me, can anyone else provide some hints how I can fix it? Would a reboot maybe fix it?
[21:11] <Quasar1048> Cool! I have cube now! :D
[21:11] <erUSUL> zebastian: a tar file is like a zip file. but it can store unix permission and ownership
[21:11] <brandan> grturner ok 1 min i will do that
[21:11] <ubuntistas> how can i connect my cellphone with my pc is any software available?
[21:12] <zebastian> does cvzpf stand for anything erUSUL¿?
[21:12] <shiznebit> what programa do i use to save the video out from my PVR ?
[21:12] <ubuntistas> by connection i mean transfering files
[21:12] <erUSUL> zebastian: no it will backup everythin in /home/sebastian to a file in /media/SAMSUNG/
[21:12] <Quasar1048> Alrgiht, I'm out.. thanks for the help!
[21:12] <zebastian> erUSUL: but it had already worked before...and it copied up to 30 gb
[21:13] <brandan> grturner Reading package lists... Done
[21:13] <brandan> Building dependency tree
[21:13] <brandan> Reading state information... Done
[21:13] <brandan> E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-restricted-extras
[21:13] <erUSUL> zebastian: c -> create v -> vervose z -> compressed p -> with permissions f -> filename fllows
[21:13] <FloodBot3> brandan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:13] <brandan> Would a reboot help?
[21:13] <grturner> brandan, what version ubuntu are you on? the package should be there
[21:13] <brandan> 9.04
[21:13] <erUSUL> zebastian: maybe you used other options for rsync
[21:13] <zebastian> zebastian: how so? i used the same folders
[21:15] <brandan> grturner 9.04 32bit
[21:15] <erUSUL> zebastian: -avh <<< that -a makes rsync preserve permissions and owner. it can do that on a vfat filesystem
[21:15] <erUSUL> can't*
[21:15] <iso_> got problems with flash movies in firefox ubuntu real bad quality ho to resolve conflicts?
[21:15] <zebastian> so what command would you use for rsync?
[21:16] <zebastian> erUSUL:
[21:16] <iso_> whats the best extension for swf and flv?
[21:16] <iso_> any idea?
[21:17] <erUSUL> zebastian: for a backup in a vfat filesystem i would use tar
[21:17] <grturner> brandan, can you install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg and gstreamer-0.10-plugins-ugly ?
[21:17] <brandan> grturner where do I get those?
[21:18] <subito> hi. does someone know how to make work virtual midi piano keyboard? i have no sound on it
[21:18] <grturner> brandan, 'sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer-0.10-plugins-ugly'

[21:20] <brandan> grturner the ubuntu servers running slow or is it just my connection ?
[21:20] <losha> !slow > brandan

[21:22] <MenZa> brandan: Ubuntu 9.10 (codename: Karmic Koala) is currently in beta, yes.
[21:22] <brandan> ooh okay I see!
[21:22] <erUSUL> mikejet: System>Admin>Printers
[21:22] <losha> brandan: calm down. It's *not* ready for prime-time yet...
[21:22] <iso_> got problems with flash movies in firefox ubuntu real bad quality ho to resolve conflicts?
[21:23] <brandan> losha I understand that
[21:23] <sdubois> HTML5 audio is being sent to my internal pcspeaker in Firefox
[21:23] <evident> hi everybody... I am having some troubles with my .bashrc. You see, I want to install devkitPro to be able to compile and program software for the nintendo ds and following this doku (http://palib.info/wiki/doku.php?id=day1) I have to add some lines to my .bashrc and then run "source ~./bashrc" to update these variables. But when doing so it gives me a parse error, which it even gives me when I switch back to the backup of my .bashrc,
[21:23] <evident> which I created before... how come there is some wrong code? I can't remember changing it...
[21:24] <erUSUL> evident: can we see the actual error ?
[21:24] <evident> i'll pastebin it
[21:24] <SuspectZero> anyone here have a tutorial for how to edit the initramfs so it can loop an iso making it possible to boot it through grub2?
[21:25] <evident> http://hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/view?id=10212#a10212
[21:25] <evident> http://hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/view?id=10213#a10213
[21:25] <evident> and this is my .bashrc
[21:26] <losha> evident: if you sourced something, it's in your running shell's environment. Unless you restart the shell completel *from scratch* after restoring your .bashrc, the change might still affect stuff...
[21:27] <losha> evident: so let's see line 20 of your old .bashrc where the trouble appears to start...
[21:27] <brandan> when are the servers expected to go back full speed? is there a date set?
[21:27] <jcdyer> I've got Easy Peasy on my Acer Aspire One, and I'd like to switch to Netbook Remix.  Is it possible to do that without blasting my current install?
[21:27] <evident> can you see an error?
[21:27] <SuspectZero> j #linux
[21:27] <SuspectZero> oops
[21:27] <jcdyer> In other words, can I add a line to my software sources, and run an update?
[21:27] <cybersplice> brandan, they will speed up when people stop mercilessly downloading Karmic.
[21:27] <erUSUL> evident: i know what have happened... you are using dash not bash (you are at a root promt)
[21:27] <erUSUL> evident: exit from that root promt and do the source
[21:28] <brandan> cybersplice oh okay
[21:28] <keithburton> Hi - anyone have any experience with ubuntu 9.10 on HP2133.  took me ages to get 9.04 working reasonably, usual problems with Wifi and via display drivers
[21:28] <jmcdermott> is there a default pwd the system has if you leave the pwd field blank when you set up ubuntu?  left it blank and now unable to change pwd or install things
[21:28] <erUSUL> keithburton: #ubuntu+1
[21:29] <cybersplice> keithburton, try channel #ubuntu+1
[21:29] <evident> root prompt? I'm not in a root prompt... this is my normal zsh and I am logged in as normal user... I didn't start sudo or something
[21:29] <keithburton> thx - sorry to bash in ...
[21:29] <zebastian> erUSUL: gzip: stdout: File too large
[21:29] <cybersplice> jmcdermott, do you mean the pwd for your user account?
[21:30] <brandan> grturner I was able to get ubuntu restricted-extras to download but it will take a while ;)
[21:30] <erUSUL> evident: then it is not dash but zsh in both cases you can not use a *bash* configuration file with a shell that is *not* bash
[21:30] <iplaman> hi all
[21:30] <grturner> brandan, yah... i'm running updates right now getting 20kbps
[21:30] <losha> jmcdermott: it should never have allowed you to leave it blank during setup. You may have to boot the livecd and edit your on-disk /etc/passwd file to fix this...
[21:30] <iso_> got problems with flash movies in firefox  real bad quality ho to resolve conflicts?
[21:31] <erUSUL> evident: you are asking zsh to read and interpret a bash configuration file and it fails (as spected)
[21:31] <evident> ahh ok... can you tell me where I have to add the three lines instead?
[21:31] <brandan> grturner yeah im getting between 2kb/s and 18kb/s so dont feel bad lol
[21:31] <jmcdermott> thx
[21:31] <iplaman> can someone help me with regex small problem?
[21:31] <erUSUL> evident: to ~/.zshrc
[21:31] <brandan> grturner sometimes below 1kb/s too
[21:31] <vge> iplaman: degends
[21:31] <evident> still write it the same way?
[21:31] <evident> export DEVKITPRO=/home/florianbg/workspace/nds/devkitPro
[21:31] <evident> export DEVKITARM=$DEVKITPRO/devkitARM
[21:31] <evident> export PAPATH=$DEVKITPRO/PAlib/lib
[21:31] <vge> iplaman: dont ask to ask, just ask :)
[21:31] <FloodBot3> evident: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:32] <erUSUL> evident: yes the same should work
[21:32] <iplaman> im trying to extract all the words that contains the "ns" characters
[21:32] <erUSUL> zebastian: as i said vfat can not hold files larger than 4 GiB
[21:32] <iplaman> not the lines
[21:32] <zebastian> erUSUL: is there any way to hack the thing and change the file system?
[21:32] <zebastian> reformat or something
[21:33] <evident> ahh ok everything works fine now! thanks everybody!
[21:33] <brandan> grturner down to 4303 bites per sec, not even 1KB/s LOL
[21:33] <erUSUL> zebastian: you can reformat the external disk to ext3 or something (if you are going to use it only with linux) or as ntfs (if you want to use it with windows too)
[21:34] <losha> erUSUL: good catch re: zsh vs bash
[21:34] <grturner> yah it's pretty ridiculous, they need to stress torrents more
[21:34] <Seveas> brandan, 1kB == 1000 (or 1024) bytes, so you're still over 4kB :)
[21:34] <erUSUL> zebastian: reformatting deletes the data in the disk of course
[21:34] <erUSUL> losha: :)
[21:34] <brandan> but I did go below 1KB/s a few times now.
[21:34] <zebastian> erUSUL: will you be here in a couple of hours?
[21:34] <stefg_> !slow
[21:34] <Whizp0pthat> I have Ubuntu 8.10, I installed it as dual boot with windows. But however, I haven't used Ubuntu for a while and forgot my user & pass is there a way to find it?
[21:35] <erUSUL> zebastian: not likely is getting late here in Europe.
[21:35] <vge> Whizp0pthat: you can boot to failsafe and change it
[21:35] <stefg_> Seveas: hey, long time not seen
[21:35] <brandan> everyone here in europe ??
[21:35] <erUSUL> Whizp0pthat: just boot into recovery mode and change it
[21:35] <grturner> Whizp0pthat, you can boot into rescue mode and reset your password
[21:35] <vge> brandan: finland here
[21:35] <brandan> usaa here, sadly
[21:35] <brandan> usa *
[21:35] <Ingsoc> Can anyone help me compile the newest version of openal? I have downladed the source but I don't know what to do next.
[21:35] <Whizp0pthat> I'm not sure how to do failsafe, recovery mode, or rescue mode... do i do that from the menu when it's booting up?
[21:35] <vge> brandan: to be sorry or happy for you, i donno
[21:35] <erUSUL> Ingsoc: why are you doing that ?
[21:36] <iplaman> how can i extract all word contains the characters "ns" form a file PLEASE
[21:36] <erUSUL> Whizp0pthat: from the grub menu; yes.
[21:36] <stefg_> !build | Ingsoc
[21:36] <Ingsoc> erUSUL: choppy sound in a lot of games
[21:36] <losha> !password | Whizp0pthat
[21:36] <erUSUL> iplaman: grep ns file.txt
[21:36] <zebastian> erUSUL: how do you format it to ext3?
[21:36] <mcginleyr1> hey guys i setup 9.10 and when i click on my username to login gnome freezes/crashes I thought it might need to be udated so I droped to TTY2 and upgraded everything and it still does it any ideas?
[21:36] <Whizp0pthat> thanks all
[21:36] <erUSUL> zebastian: use gparted
[21:37] <iplaman> erUSUL: not the lines just the words
[21:37] <zebastian> erUSUL: i mean from the terminal
[21:37] <vge> mcginleyr1: have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling gdm?
[21:37] <mcginleyr1> no I'll give it a shot
[21:37] <iso_> any idea flash movies wont work on frefox...extension s installed..any possible conflicts?
[21:38] <iplaman> erUSUL: and i dont wanna use "cut"
[21:38] <iplaman> since i dont know the "-f"
[21:38] <losha> iplaman: harder, but not impossible. Use tr to change all spaces to newlines so you only have one word per line, then use grep as before...
[21:39] <brandan> well im out, take care everyone! nice chatting
[21:39] <iso_> any idea flash movies wont work on frefox...extension s installed..any possible conflicts?
[21:39] <erUSUL> iplaman: brute force --> « grep ns file.txt | tr ' ' '\n' | grep ns > output.txt »
[21:39] <zebastian> erUSUL: ok i'm on gparted, how do i format it, i don't see an option for formatting
[21:39] <vge> iso_: have you installed 10.0 version?
[21:39] <SuspectZero> does casper == lupin-casper?
[21:39] <zebastian> erUSUL: it's mounted btw
[21:39] <erUSUL> losha: stop reading my mind XXDD
[21:39] <SuspectZero> or are they 2 seperate entities?
[21:40] <iso_> adobe 10.0?
[21:40] <iplaman> erUSUL: thanks
[21:40] <iplaman> losha: Thanks
[21:40] <erUSUL> zebastian: umount it; right click on the parition
[21:40] <vge> iso_: ye, the so file from adobe site, shoud would just fine alone
[21:40] <losha> erUSUL: iplaman: slightly improved version: tr '[:space:]' '\n' file.txt | egrep ns
[21:40] <iso_> is it on synaptics?
[21:40] <iplaman> :) kind of a round problem solving but should work
[21:41] <vge> i would not take it from there
[21:41] <frostfirex11> hi
[21:41] <iso_> does 10.0 conflict with previous versions?
[21:41] <iplaman> thanks guys
[21:41] <losha> erUSUL: :-)
[21:41] <ZeRoDeAtH50435> what room am i in
[21:41] <erUSUL> !hi | ZeRoDeAtH50435
[21:42] <Wunderbar> how do i go about fixing an xmodmap error?
[21:43] <losha> SuspectZero: you can use the /whois <nick> command to find out about casper
[21:43] <vge> iso_: just check your firefox plugins about:plugins inside firefox, should tell you id you have flash installed
[21:43] <SuspectZero> losha, what?
[21:43] <ZeRoDeAtH50435> i have ubuntu 9.04 installed on my computer but im checking out crunchbang on live cd
[21:43] <Wunderbar> any tips on fixing and xmodmap error?
[21:43] <losha> SuspectZero: run /whois casper and then /whois lupin-casper to see if they are the same 'entity'
[21:44] <SuspectZero> losha, hahaha i meant the applications called casper and lupin-caser
[21:44] <iso_> got swf
[21:44] <vge> iso_: if not, get the single file from adobes site, put libflashplayer.so inside ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[21:44] <vge> and that should be it
[21:44] <losha> SuspectZero: :-). Oops. Obviously I don't know what I'm talking about. Senility has finally set it...
[21:44] <SuspectZero> hahahah no worries :)
[21:44] <ZeRoDeAtH50435> any1 know anything about crunchbang
[21:45] <evident> where is the xorg.conf again?
[21:45] <HeDidIt[FaR]> i'm a n0b at using ubuntu...atm i'm running ubuntu 9.04
[21:45] <Wunderbar> focus guys...xmodmap error here...
[21:45] <HeDidIt[FaR]> how can i install software?
[21:45] <erUSUL> evident: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:45] <Wunderbar> lol
[21:45] <erUSUL> !software | HeDidIt[FaR]
[21:45] <losha> ZeRoDeAtH50435: crunchbang has its own channel I believe..
[21:46] <vge> iso_: if that lib is there and your still not getting any flash and firefox think it has flash then i donno how to help :/
[21:46] <erUSUL> Wunderbar: i have focused in my crystall ball but failed to see the actual error...
[21:46] <ZeRoDeAtH50435> know what the name is
[21:46] <losha> Wunderbar: I saw the error in my crystal ball, but the solution was interrupted by a commercial...
[21:47] <HeDidIt[FaR]> 10x for help Usul
[21:47] <erUSUL> HeDidIt[FaR]: no problem
[21:47] <iso_> go flash 9
[21:47] <losha> ZeRoDeAtH50435: I think it's #crunchbang... :-)
[21:47] <Wunderbar> okay, it says- unable to open file /usr/share/kubuntu-default settings/kubuntu.xmodmap for reading /usr/bin/xmodmap: 1 error encountered, aborting

[21:48] <jo88> hellow everyone, I recently registerd on dyndsn and set up a webserver. Now, I can acces it it on my computer an on my android phone (true the mobile dataplan, so it's online) but some people can't. It say's the server doensn't respond. Any idea? Tx
[21:48] <losha> Wunderbar: that's a bit odd, that it looks for a kubuntu file. Did you change something recently to cause this?
[21:49] <Wunderbar> i was messing around with my awesome wm config
[21:49] <Wunderbar> but i uninstalled kubuntu a few months back
[21:49] <zebastian> erUSUL: ok i formatted to ext3, now it mounted and there's a lost and found folder, but it says i don't have permissions to it
[21:49] <zebastian> erUSUL: how do i get permissioons to the drive now
[21:49] <losha> jo88: how recently. I think it can take some time to propagate...
[21:49] <Wunderbar> having barely used it
[21:49] <erUSUL> jo88: you set up the dyundns client to update your ip ?
[21:50] <SuspectZero> anyone here ever worked with lupin-casper
[21:50] <erUSUL> zebastian: use the original sync command (with sudo) that should work
[21:50] <jo88> half a day ago :) Yes, maby it's that. And yes ddclient run's without problem (for the first time ever here, love it)
[21:50] <kubanc> how do i restart metacity with out restarting the computer?
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> kubanc: define "restart"
[21:51] <erUSUL> jo88: you use a router ? are ports correctly forwarded ? is the ddns client running in the router ?
[21:51] <Wunderbar> losha, any ideas?
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> kubanc: if you are running compiz and want to start metacity, you can run: metacity --replace
[21:51] <SuspectZero> anyone here ever worked with lupin-casper?
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | SuspectZero
[21:51] <evident> I am having a proplem with my touchpad... when I go to System->Preferences->Touchpad it says it can't initialize GSynaptics because "SHMConfig" must be set to "true" in my xorg.conf or my XF86Config... but my xorg.conf doesn't have any "SHMConfig" in it... should I add it? If yes, where exactly?
[21:51] <losha> Wunderbar: sorry, dunno. I abhor kde too. One easy workaround that doesn't actually address the root cause would be to create an empty /usr/share/kubuntu-defaultsettings/kubuntu.xmodmap file...
[21:51] <SuspectZero> ActionParsnip, haha got it
[21:52] <jo88> erUSUL: no, straight to the internet.
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> evident: add it manually: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:52] <SuspectZero> how can i configure lupin-casper? or atleast read a man page on it?
[21:52] <kubanc> i installed cairo-dock, but i don't have transparancy, so went into config-editor and added apps/metacity/general/composite_manager ON, but i still dont have any transparency, so do i need to restart metacity ...
[21:52] <jo88> erUSUL: and now i see it, the proxys don't catch it to.
[21:52] <losha> jo88: wanna tell us the url, so we can try it. PM if you don't want everyone to know...
[21:52] <erUSUL> jo88: maybe the webserver only listens on loopback and not in the modem interface
[21:52] <evident> ActionParsnip, just write "SHMConfig true" at the end or does it have to be in any of the "sections" there?
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> evident: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=975421

[22:00] <laptop_> hey guys, anyone knows of a good newsgroup leecher for ubuntu?
[22:00] <losha> santium: no, you wrote what I asked for. On *my* system, that just gives me regular ascii file names. You don't have find aliased to something do you. In particular, see the -print0 option in the man page...
[22:02] <techlobyte1> laptop_/ sorry haven't done newsgroup for ages
[22:02] <losha> laptop_: for text, I use slrn. For binaries, I dunno. Maybe 'pan'?
[22:03] <techlobyte1> how do I find my passwords in evoloution?
[22:03] <santium> losha: Unless 9.04 aliases it in a new install, I doubt it.

What is cousing this problem? After reboot I am able to hear myself but after a couple of skpye calls this happens? How do I restart all my sound devices? (if this is cousing the problem) I really need to solve this problem since I'm doing remote work with my collage. Any ideas how c
[22:04] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: actually it should work out of the box.. even if it doesn't, you should install the driver through jockey
[22:05] <techlobyte1> poseidon flavored ubuntu is becoming unstable after long logins
[22:05] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, what is jockey?
[22:05] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: yeah, that goes through jockey.. system, administration, hardware drivers and enab le it there (just make sure your system is fully updated)
[22:05] <techlobyte1> who do I ask about questions about evolution mail?
[22:05] <laptop_> losha, the add/remove programs showed KLibido .. ever used it?
[22:06] <Wunderbar> how i go about completely removing awesome wm  from my system
[22:06] <system404> techlobyte1: whats your question
[22:06] <stanworld> hello, i am using a linux system, ubuntu, and i would like to develop aplication with a GUI , i would like a GUI library , if possible in C++ , what you advise me to use?

[22:06] <PiotrK> it's very long - from Ubuntu 7.04 probably
[22:06] <PiotrK> till now
[22:06] <losha> laptop_: never even *heard* of klibido. Google for ubuntu newsreaders & see what 'the people' say...
[22:06] <DigitalKiwi> Wunderbar: why would you do such an awful thing, awesome is the best! :D
[22:06] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, what do you mean it goes through jockey? I have not hear of thar before.
[22:07] <PiotrK> can someone look if this is new? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuvfXgcQC94
[22:07] <kanak> Hi. Can anyone tell me how to turn off the Login screen ready sound in Ubuntu 9.10? System -> Administration -> Login Screen does not seem to have any sound related options, and I've already set System -> Administration-> Sound Preferences to "No Sound Theme".
[22:07] <taylor_> fccf, I did that.
[22:07] <fccf> !karmic | kanak
[22:07] <Wunderbar> awesome keeps crashing
[22:07] <PiotrK> I mean if it's not in bugtraq
[22:07] <Wunderbar> i need to uninstall, then maybe in the future fresh install
[22:07] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: just go to system, administration, hardware drivers... enabling the broadcom driver through there is fairly self-explanatory
[22:07] <Wunderbar> but for now i need to completely uninstall awesome, so...
[22:07] <branko> Any ideas? I hear static after running skype also with arecord....
[22:07] <Wunderbar> anyone
[22:08] <Wunderbar> ?
[22:08] <losha> Wunderbar: something like 'sudo apt-get autoremove awesome' might do it. What are you gonna replace it with?
[22:08] <DexterF> what's the preferred method on upgrading to 9.10beta?
[22:08] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, I did that also.
[22:08] <janisozaur> what is a good hex editor?
[22:08] <Wunderbar> i use fluxbox most of the time
[22:08] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: and that didn't install the driver for you initially?
[22:08] <vge> fluxbof for the win
[22:09] <Wunderbar> i might just play around with that a bit, get it to look a bit more like awesome
[22:09] <vge> (if i could write the name correctly)
[22:09] <Wunderbar> brb
[22:09] <djustice> janisozaur: khexedit, okteta
[22:09] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, At this point I'm not sure. How to I check?
[22:10] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: when you open it, do you see a green circle next to Broadcom STA Wireless?
[22:10] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, Give a sec.
[22:10] <branko> I have also noticed that after restart the FIRST call I make with skype is fine but all the next is static? Why is that? How can I restart pulseaudio?
[22:10] <Wunderbar> didn't uninstall, downgraded instead
[22:11] <branko> Anyone... I know this is skype related problem but I belive pulse has fingers in it?
[22:11] <losha> branko: 9.04?
[22:11] <Wunderbar> funny how awesome 2.3 is so much better and apparently easier to configure than 3.3.4
[22:11] <branko> losha: yes
[22:11] <losha> branko: it's riddled with sound problems, apparently. !sound
[22:11] <losha> !sound | branko
[22:12] <branko> losha: can u please just tell me the command how to restart pulse audio?
[22:12] <DigitalKiwi> Wunderbar: but awesome 3 is far more powerful with customizations
[22:12] <techlobyte1> system404: did you get that?
[22:12] <losha> branko: If I knew it, I'd tell you. I don't run 9.04 myself, too buggy. Maybe someone else will help...
[22:12] <DigitalKiwi> since it can do just about anything you could imagine a window manager to do due to lua
[22:13] <Wunderbar> lua makes me cry
[22:13] <dyeohnyesus> anybody here has an acer timeline 5538 ?
[22:13] <branko> Anyone here knows how to restart pulse audio?
[22:13] <Loafers> Wunderbar, why?
[22:13] <cichlasoma> hi. does anybody use kde 4.3 in ubuntu?
[22:13] <Loafers> Wunderbar, good or bad?
[22:13] <SirBob1701> hey guys i setup 9.10 and when i click on my username to login gnome freezes/crashes I thought it might need to be udated so I droped to TTY2 and upgraded everything and it still does it any ideas? and resinstalling gdm didn't work
[22:13] <DigitalKiwi> lua is awesome
[22:13] <Wunderbar> bad, i don't like it
[22:13] <Loafers> o
[22:13] <Wunderbar> also, i prefer the default config of 2.3 over 3.3
[22:14] <Wunderbar> i like the fact that you're forced to use the terminal in 2.3
[22:14] <losha> DigitalKiwi: great. Just what the world needed. *Another* programming language...
[22:14] <DigitalKiwi> lua has been around a while
[22:14] <FiReSTaRT> jhattara: /etc/init.d/gdm restart <-- in terminal
[22:15] <Wunderbar> but there's a reason why hardly anyone uses lua...
[22:15] <DigitalKiwi> and it is wonderful, the world is a better place with it
[22:15] <DigitalKiwi> tons of people use it
[22:15] <Wunderbar> no one that i know
[22:15]  * DigitalKiwi uses it
[22:15] <Wunderbar> and that's the most important thing
[22:15] <losha> DigitalKiwi: I'd never even *heard* of it...
[22:15] <Freeaqingme> I just upgraded to karmic, but now Amarok refuses to play mp3 files. I already installed ubuntu-restricted-extras.

[22:15] <FiReSTaRT> !karmic
[22:15] <telaviv> no one uses lua? you mean like world of warcraft doesn't count?

[22:15] <yofel> Freeaqingme: come to #ubuntu+1 please
[22:16] <Freeaqingme> got the message. tnx
[22:16] <Wunderbar> people still use Amarok? what's that like these days?
[22:16] <Loafers> Wunderbar, Here is the better link  http://tr.im/AzCB
[22:16] <DigitalKiwi> tons of games use it, vlc uses it, nmap uses it, wow uses it, crysis, far cry, lots
[22:16] <DigitalKiwi> you just aren't looking/don't know it
[22:16] <Freeaqingme> Wunderbar, they said it would improve. But I'd at least expect it to play mp3 files ;)
[22:17] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: what's the good word? :)
[22:17] <losha> Wunderbar: Freeaqingme: well, apparently it's broken in Karmic. Wait, maybe that's the improvement....
[22:17] <DigitalKiwi> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lua-scripted_video_games lot of big titles on there as well as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lua_%28programming_language%29#Other
[22:17] <Wunderbar> use quodlibet if you need an all in one solution
[22:18] <Wunderbar> okay guys i get the point about lua
[22:18] <Loafers> :)
[22:18] <DigitalKiwi> ;p
[22:18] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, Thanks. I did that earlier, must of lost it somehow.
[22:18] <Wunderbar> looks like i'll have to learn lua :(
[22:18] <system404> how to update from 9.04 to 9.10 and what are the key differences between the 2 please
[22:18] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: ok so is the driver finally installed? did you test your wireless adapter?
[22:19] <DigitalKiwi> nah, Wunderbar, I didn't know lua when I wrote my config, I learned lua after that, and I know little more about configuring awesome, it is not strictly necessary to know lua to configure it
[22:19] <taylor_> FiReSTaRT, I'm using it right now!!
[22:19] <losha> system404: currently the principal difference seems to be that 9.10 is even more broken, unstable and not ready-to-be-used than 9.04
[22:19] <Wunderbar> i tried configuring awesome 3.3 without knowing lua and it turned into an almighty mess
[22:19] <FiReSTaRT> taylor_: great news :) glad it worked for you buddy.. time for me to grab some lunch.. l8ah
[22:19] <system404> losha: so its not advisable to upgrade to this edition yet then
[22:19] <Wunderbar> by comparison my 2.3 config was a thing of beauty
[22:19] <yofel> system404: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/beta and read the WHOLE page!
[22:20] <techlobyte1>  system404: i'd just like to get off poseidon
[22:20] <system404> losha: cheers
[22:20] <shaullx> i installed flashplugin-nonfree and it crashes firefox whenever i try to see flash  videos
[22:20] <Freeaqingme> Wunderbar, after installing a missing package it even plays mp3 files. So it being broken can't be the improvement.. ;)
[22:20] <losha> system404: it's still in beta, so do not use for anything you can't afford to lose...
[22:20] <system404> poseidon?
[22:20] <DigitalKiwi> some ubuntu derivative, system404
[22:20] <techlobyte1> yep
[22:20] <system404> ahh lol

[22:21] <techlobyte1> yofel, what?
[22:21] <losha> techlobyte1: you're the only person I know who runs poseidon, It's supposed to be a Ubuntu derivative, so moving shouldn't be too much of a chore. What's stopping you?
[22:21] <yofel> techlobyte1: 9.10 is the next ubuntu release coming 29th october
[22:21] <DigitalKiwi> yofel: we are talking about Poseidon Linux not karmic koala

[22:30] <durt> Mike_lifeguard, what is the server going to do?
[22:30] <yofel> iceroot: it should tell you the line in .ssh/known_hosts that is outdated. delete that line and it will connect again
[22:30] <Mike_lifeguard> iceroot: use the -i option
[22:30] <losha> durt: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/sonar on my system
[22:30] <shaullx> im unable to download anything, my windows 7 stoped working so i install ubuntu and in the partition manager i selected run with windows
[22:30] <vigo> Mike_lifeguard: Really depends on what you prefer and are use to, one moment though.
[22:30] <shaullx> now it says i have no space left when i download
[22:31] <shaullx> any ideas?
[22:31] <durt> losha, thx, now what do I do to it?
[22:31] <iceroot> Mike_lifeguard: thanks
[22:31] <Mike_lifeguard> durt: MySQL replication, apache, php, mediawiki... and eventually it will need to serve /home on NFS
[22:31] <iceroot> yofel: thank you
[22:31] <yofel> iceroot: np
[22:31] <audigy6x> how do I use a program once I have compiled it from the source code
[22:31] <shaullx> someone?...
[22:31] <shaullx> please:
[22:31] <shaullx> (
[22:32] <iceroot> Mike_lifeguard: and then? ssh -i wants a file
[22:32] <dyeohnyesus> shaullx, what is the problem ?
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> audigy6x: run the binary?
[22:32] <jedc> audigy6x, there should be some sort of executable in the directory, if it is foo use it with ./foo
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> iceroot: Yes, it wants the private key you will use to authenticate to the host
[22:32] <Mike_lifeguard> iceroot: normally this will be something like ~/.ssh/id_rsa
[22:32] <eisenhower> Hey, I installed firefox 3.5 over my 3.0 in ubuntu and I can't added google as a search engine in the top right. Any idea how to fix this?
[22:32] <iceroot> Mike_lifeguard: hm
[22:32] <audigy6x> ok let me try
[22:32] <iceroot> Mike_lifeguard: ok
[22:33] <losha> durt: ping should already be setuid root. Isn't yours? ls -l /bin/ping
[22:33] <shaullx> dyeohnyesus i installed ubuntu and in the setup i selected run with windows in partition manager now whenever i try to download something in firefox it says i have no space left
[22:33] <yofel> Mike_lifeguard: I think he means the server hash that's changed, would the id file help with that too?
[22:33] <Mike_lifeguard> eisenhower: ask the firefox folks? There is #firefox (or maybe #mozilla) on freenode, or they have irc.mozilla.net
[22:33] <shaullx> i think its related to what ive done in partition manager but how to fix it?
[22:33] <Mike_lifeguard> yofel, iceroot: if that's the case, then you should verify the fingerprint, and trust the host if it is correct
[22:34] <Mike_lifeguard> iceroot: Maybe you should be clearer about what the problem is.
[22:34] <obsidieth> my update is taking a suspiciously long time setting up ipopd
[22:34] <obsidieth> like 5 minutes
[22:34] <durt> losha, ya, ping's not the prob its sonar.
[22:34] <obsidieth> is something borked
[22:34] <dyeohnyesus> shaullx,
[22:34] <dyeohnyesus> where is it trying to download ?
[22:34] <losha> iceroot: forget ssh -i. Edit the known_hosts file like yofel said...
[22:35] <dyeohnyesus> run a df -h
[22:35] <shaullx> something with tmp the error says
[22:35] <iceroot> losha: cant find the line so i was clearing the hole file
[22:35] <joeyjones> losha: it didn't help
[22:35] <dyeohnyesus> can you paste it?
[22:35] <vigo> Mike_lifeguard: This official guide might help: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/faq
[22:36] <dyeohnyesus> shaullx, better yet just paste the output of df -h
[22:36] <dyeohnyesus> shaullx, "df -h"
[22:36] <shaullx> There is not enough room on the disk to save /tmp/2_EdlSz7.zip.part.
[22:36] <losha> iceroot: it's ok to clear the whole file. Did you say it didn't help?
[22:36] <shaullx> ok sec
[22:36] <system404> hey guys in amarok one of my albums ive downloaded is coming under various artists so i tried to change it to the name of the album but the title bit is greyed out so i changed the rest of the bits but it still says various artists
[22:36] <iceroot> losha: its working now
[22:36] <shaullx> where to past it its big
[22:37] <dyeohnyesus> msg me
[22:37] <durt> Mike_lifeguard, if you run 'sudo tesksel' you might get a list of servers to install, but this is a throwback to debian...
[22:37] <durt> Mike_lifeguard, er, tasksel
[22:37] <Mike_lifeguard> durt: k, I'll give that a whirl
[22:37] <obsidieth> grf
[22:37] <obsidieth> still moving any
[22:37] <tpw_rules> hellp
[22:38] <system404> hey guys in amarok one of my albums ive downloaded is coming under various artists so i tried to change it to the name of the album but the title bit is greyed out so i changed the rest of the bits but it still says various artists
[22:38] <obsidieth> theres probably something indicating its a compilation
[22:38] <losha> durt: Personally, I wouldn't run any screensaver setuid. Whoever designed it to need to setuid got it wrong. Which makes me even less inclined to run it...
[22:38] <dyeohnyesus> hahaha
[22:38] <dyeohnyesus> setuid screensaver :)
[22:38] <yofel> tpw_rules: ?
[22:38] <system404> it is an album of various artists its now dance anthems 2009 but i want it to say now dance anthems 2009
[22:39] <losha> dyeohnyesus: no kidding...
[22:39] <Yanick_> hi, why will Empathy replace pidgin on the next release, in 26 days? I just installed it, and it is half as stable and mature as pidgin is, except Empathy supposedly support video messaging?
[22:39] <system404> not various artists
[22:39] <tpw_rules> i've installed kdevelop on my system and i can't get it to build executables. I start with the 'simple c++ hello world' example, hit compile and after a lot of crunching it says 'Configure: error: c++ compiler cannot create executables'. do i have to install anything else?
[22:39] <durt> losha, understood, I have no security issues to pay attention to.
[22:39] <joeyjones> tpw_rules: why not just use gcc?
[22:39] <chai> does anybody know how to share an internet connection with hardy?
[22:40] <yofel> Yanick_: come to #ubuntu+1 for that, you should get a better answer there
[22:40] <eisenhower> Okay this is prob a newb question but, How do you know where synaptic installs programs at?
[22:40] <Yanick_> yofel, ok
[22:40] <losha> durt: sorry, I can't help you...
[22:40] <tpw_rules> joeyjones: i just like ides
[22:40] <joeyjones> eisenhower: probably /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin for the binaries
[22:40] <system404> it installs them in filesystem/etc
[22:41] <janisozaur> !pl
[22:41] <losha> eisenhower: looking for something in particular?
[22:41] <djustice> tpw_rules: learn cmake. and qmake. and c++. then kdevelop is liek sweeeet boobies.
[22:41] <chai> i have a usb wifi adapter and i want to share that internet connection through my onboard ethernet port. can i?
[22:41] <yofel> eisenhower: what do you mean 'where' (linux is different from windows there)
[22:41] <tpw_rules> lol
[22:41] <system404> eisenhower: go to computer filesystem etc
[22:41] <obsidieth> my upgrade is still frozen.
[22:41] <system404> in that folder ull find installed apps
[22:41] <eisenhower> so for example,  using synaptic package manager, I installed xchat
[22:41] <eisenhower> i looked in /etc
[22:42] <system404> eisenhower: go to places computer then etc ur apps are in there
[22:42] <system404> thats where ur apps go
[22:42] <yofel> system404: STOP
[22:42] <yofel> no,
[22:42] <joeyjones> system404: iirc /etc is jsut where config files are
[22:42] <system404> thats where all my apps are
[22:42] <joeyjones> no binaries
[22:42] <yofel> eisenhower: just run xchat from the menu, and if you need the executable then it's in /usr/bin
[22:42] <joeyjones> yofel: i;ve been trying to say that...
[22:42] <cybersplice> Apps aren't in any one place. /etc is for config files.
[22:43] <vigo> eisenhower: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FindingFiles
[22:43] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: thanks for the heads up.. i'm downloading empathy as we speak.. i'd love to see webcam and custom emoticon support... might even replace aMSN with it :P
[22:43] <yofel> joeyjones: just making sure ;)
[22:43] <joeyjones> yofel: i was being ignored though...
[22:44] <eisenhower> one other question.  how do you set a defualt browser in ubuntu?
[22:44] <cybersplice> joeyjones, that will happen.
[22:44] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, be aware that you'll have to kill "telepathy-butterfly" if you get "Network error" message or something
[22:44] <eisenhower> i moved to firefox 3.5 from 3.0 and its not linking from othe rapps
[22:44] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: thanks for the warning.. is that in an unstable release of koala or in jaunty?
[22:44] <vigo> eisenhower: dpkg -L <filename> (synaptic) is one way.
[22:44] <Yanick_> FiremanEd, and if you have multiple accounts, connecting simultaneously might not work :)
[22:44] <yofel> eisenhower: check 'preferred applications' in system settings
[22:45] <Yanick_> sorry, last one was for FiReSTaRT
[22:45] <mrwes> eisenhower, make a symbolic link from 3.0 to 3.5
[22:45] <joeyjones> chai: you can probably setup network forwarding with iptables or some gui app
[22:45] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, well, I read that Empathy will officially replace Pidgin in 9.10
[22:45] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i don't do polygamy.. but are you running it on jaunty or koala?
[22:45] <cybersplice> I like Empathy.
[22:45] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i installed it under jaunty (just now)
[22:45] <Yanick_> I run it on Jaunty right now
[22:46] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: and it's still buggin' on you? yikes... i'll need o check it out
[22:46] <cybersplice> I installed Karmic. It's running mostly smoothly. Needs polish, but hey. We have a month.
[22:46] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, it's not Ubuntu related problem, the issues are from the Telepathy framework, I guess
[22:47] <eisenhower> is there way to change a global? from firefox-3.5 to firefox
[22:47] <eut> hello
[22:47] <grturner> !karmic | cybersplice
[22:47] <yofel> Yanick_ FiReSTaRT: the karmic version has a lot of bugfixes compared to the jaunty one
[22:47] <vigo> I need a VRT or Speech to Text widget,   had a bad accident yesterday, any suggestions?
[22:47] <FiReSTaRT> yofel: good to know.. thanks :)
[22:47] <cybersplice> grturner: Thanks, i'm aware of that.
[22:47] <MyTh> Hi ppl! I have a bug: I can't give eth0 a static IP-Address because of network-manager is crashing! What is a possible work-around?
[22:47] <mrwes> hrmm
[22:47] <grturner> that channel is reserved for the discussion of karmic as well. just fyi
[22:48] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i figured.. every client has certain bugs.. but it's time to just give empathy a quick test.. wish me luck :P
[22:48] <cybersplice> MyTh, google /etc/networking/interfaces
[22:48] <MyTh> good luck FiReSTaRT
[22:48] <MyTh> :) I don't like it ;)
[22:48] <Yanick_> yofel, I sure hope that Empathy will have serious fixes in the next months, or I won't vote for it
[22:48] <grusum> Myth: wicd replaces NM
[22:49] <MyTh> NetworkManager Applet 0.7.99
[22:49] <yofel> well, I tried empathy once and don't like it, so the discussion is finished for me
[22:49] <tpw_rules> hmm. it appears g++ was not installed, so i installed that and now i get a pile of errors saying that gcc has no input files, it's not authorized to run the X server, and it can't make a directory because it doesn't have the proper permissions. any ideas to make kdevelop work?
[22:49] <joeyjones> lol @ network-manager crashing
[22:49] <MyTh> why joeyjones?
[22:50] <MyTh> i know how to set an ip with ifconfig
[22:50] <joeyjones> just use the cli
[22:50] <joeyjones> good
[22:50] <juro> how can I mount an image that was created using partimage?
[22:50] <cybersplice> yofel, Joys of open source. Just pop pidgin in yourself. It'll probably stay in repos, i'd guess.
[22:50] <MyTh> but after it the network doesn't work anymore...
[22:50] <cybersplice> Choice is everything...
[22:50] <joeyjones> roo many wintards are coming over to ubuntu and don't even know there's a cli
[22:50] <MyTh> :D
[22:50] <joeyjones> *too
[22:50] <yofel> cybersplice: it'll stay (I use psi :P)
[22:50] <MyTh> I'm not really new ;)
[22:50] <cybersplice> yofel, Heh! I use Xchat.... !
[22:51] <dyeohnyesus> haha
[22:51] <dyeohnyesus> I am on windows man!
[22:51] <yofel> cybersplice: I use psi for jabber and quassel for IRC ;)
[22:51] <cybersplice> Though, on my iPhone i use irssi via one of my pentest rigs.
[22:51] <dyeohnyesus> just because ubuntu can't see my stupid wireless card
[22:51] <MyTh> joeyjones: should I disable network manager from automatic startup?
[22:51] <puchat3k> empathy sucks balls, the interface is nice, i could get used to it but it's support of the gadu gadu is lacking so right now pidin is still the better choice
[22:51] <dyeohnyesus> neither madwifi...
[22:51] <joeyjones> MyTh: i'd suggest that
[22:52] <MyTh> fine, i gonna try it right now :)
[22:52] <joeyjones> MyTh: and if it fails you can;t complain :p
[22:52] <kromar> hi, how can i create a second login account?
[22:52] <stinky> !account
[22:52] <dyeohnyesus> kromar, use useradd
[22:52] <puchat3k> anyone knows what is happening with ubuntu one? i can't seem to authorize my computer, i cant connect to the localhost address
[22:52] <kromar> in the terminal?
[22:52] <cybersplice> kromar, system, administration, users and groups.
[22:53] <dyeohnyesus> kromar, yep
[22:53] <eut> i've recently installed the sun-java6-jdk with aptitude. what should i set JAVA_HOME  to?
[22:53] <mrwes> kromar, System | Administration  | Users and Groups > Add user
[22:53] <tpw_rules> anybody know?
[22:53] <eut> its currently unset and other programs are breaking. the docs say i'm supposed to set JAVA_HOME to the installation path of the java jdk
[22:55] <dyeohnyesus> kromar, mrwes  is right...that way is easyer
[22:55] <dyeohnyesus> esier
[22:55] <dyeohnyesus> damn
[22:55] <dyeohnyesus> easier
[22:55] <FloodBot3> dyeohnyesus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:56] <tpw_rules> lol
[22:56] <nerdy_kid> hi, anyone know what happened to the 'encrypt file' entry in nautilus? ubuntu 9.10
[22:56] <kromar> thanks a lot
[22:56] <cybersplice> !karmic | nerdy_kid
[22:56] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: no custom emoticons and i'm not a big fan of the interface.. i'll probably stick with aMSN
[22:57] <nerdy_kid> ubottu, yeah. but this isnt a break i dont think, the entrys just gone.
[22:57] <mrwes> dyeohnyesus, you seemed like a GUI guy -- people like to give terminal advice :)
[22:57] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, the options are still very limited too
[22:57] <Afrix> moOOoOOoooOOO
[22:58] <Acetilominonitro> Hello. I tried to register new ISP adress on ekiga.net but I can`t see the picture with Captcha code. Could you help me?
[22:58] <mrwes> dyeohnyesus, most people here are new users, of sort. I always prefer to give the graphical usage over the terminal. However, for myself, I normally use the terminal
[22:58] <Acetilominonitro> Hello. I tried to register new SIP adress on ekiga.net but I can`t see the picture with Captcha code. Could you help me?
[22:59] <Yashy> I'mn running memtest86+ off the ubuntu installer, and it's saying I have 569MHz (DDR1138) CAS 1-5-7 DDR1 when really it is DDR that can do 1066MHz, and there is no apparent setting in memtest to modify this?
[22:59] <ardian> exit
[23:00] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i noticed.. on a good note, aMSN does everything i want it to, but i'd still like to have actual video-conferencing and better file transfer rates
[23:00] <phantomcircuit> Yashy, I'm guessing your wrong you're memory supports going faster but the mobo doesnt
[23:01] <Yanick_> same problem with Pidgen. MSN actually can use DCC file transfers, but all ther others need to pass through the MSN central servers, which is why it's so slow
[23:01] <mom_> hi my audio stopped working what can i do to troubleshoot?
[23:01] <Yashy> phantomcircuit: bought the MB because it is reported to support it
[23:02] <phantomcircuit> Yashy, does the BIOS support changing the FSB independently?
[23:02] <cybersplice> mom_, does it come back after a reboot?
[23:02] <Yashy> phantomcircuit: yeah
[23:02] <ryguy> My family already got two warnings sent to us from our ISP because of torrents, is there anyway to download torrents without the threat of the ISP shutting us off or worse? http://deluge-torrent.org/ says it has full encryption..is that what I need?
[23:02] <mom_> cybersplice, nope :(
[23:03] <cybersplice> mom_, i had that happen to me on Jaunty. Let me think about it for a while. Don't remember how I fixed it.
[23:03] <Yanick_> I just removed Empathy -1 for that one, and reinstalled Pidgin
[23:03] <draconis> ryguy: yeah, running torrent through SSH tunnel. you would need a VPS or another system to actually run a command line torrent client
[23:04] <mom_> cybersplice, yep its jaunty
[23:04] <ryguy> draconis: I dont know what any of that means. Im not exactly network-smart
[23:04] <draconis> ryguy: basically, you can't trust anything that says its secure
[23:04] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i can even live with the file transfers, but having actual video-chats would be great
[23:04] <draconis> ryguy: bittorrent "encryption" is a joke
[23:05] <dermot> Hi i am a new user and seam do be having audio problems when ever i run a program the sound gets all jumbled repeats itself and slows down my laptop.
[23:05] <ryguy> draconis: so what do I have to do to not get caught by my ISP?
[23:05] <DigitalKiwi> ryguy: you could, like, not do illegal torrenting
[23:05] <draconis> ryguy: what DigitalKiwi said
[23:05] <draconis> then again if your ISP is threatening to kick you off for any torrents...
[23:05] <DigitalKiwi> freenode policy is probably actually against informing how to get around that too
[23:05] <ryguy> yeah..thats totally the case..
[23:05] <DigitalKiwi> iirc it has a file sharing clausee
[23:05] <phantomcircuit> draconis, bittorrent encryption is designed to make it difficult to easily identify it not to actually encrypt it
[23:06] <darksmac> hey guys any one know if we have a cli version of some old skool games (pong,space invaders, pacman)
[23:06] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, meh. I just found out that I could actually use my webcam (XPS Studio 16) with Ubuntu using Cheese lol so you see that I don't use that much :)
[23:06] <phantomcircuit> bittorrent encryption doesnt even try to protect against MiTM attacks
[23:06] <Yashy> ryguy: or you could move to a country that respects the privacy of its citizens, like Canada, where you can't snoop on your customers.
[23:06] <cybersplice> ryguy, It's pretty difficult to stop your ISP from identifying torrent traffic.
[23:06] <ryguy> Yashy: totally would if I wernt broke
[23:06] <draconis> or you could change ISPs
[23:06] <DigitalKiwi> Yashy: I think most likely it is some watchdog reported his IP to his ISP
[23:07] <ryguy> well it was Universal pictures that sent a complaint to the ISP or something
[23:07]  * DigitalKiwi wins
[23:07] <ryguy> X_X I mean..Open Pictures..?
[23:07] <thielmann> Does anyone know what changed in last nights karmic updates? My system was really fast, now I'm back to Jaunty speed. I guess it was related to Xorg and the legacy ATI drivers (I'm running a Rage 128 card). Any ideas?
[23:07] <Acetilominonitro> Hello. I tried to register new SIP adress on ekiga.net but I can`t see the picture with Captcha code. Could you help me?
[23:07] <FiReSTaRT> Yanick_: i don't use it much but it's a nice way to complement chatting with the Mrs. while she's away doing grad school
[23:07] <cybersplice> ryguy: You could always stop downloading copyrighted material? :D
[23:07] <ryguy> yup
[23:08] <queso_> Is there any way to name a screen so I could reattach by means of a name instead of the pid?
[23:08] <ryguy> Mediacom are nazis
[23:08] <DigitalKiwi> queso_: yes
[23:08] <dermot> Hi i am a new user and seam do be having audio problems when ever i run a program the sound gets all jumbled repeats itself and slows down my laptop. Can anyone tell me where i might be able to get drivers.
[23:08] <DigitalKiwi> -S queso_
[23:08] <ryguy> is there a place I can buy movie downloads for cheap?
[23:09] <SuspectZero> how can i configure lupin-casper to mount an iso as a loop?
[23:09] <DigitalKiwi> netflix might
[23:09] <cybersplice> ryguy, lovefilm, netflicks. I actually like Virgin's on demand thinger.
[23:09] <cybersplice> on demand will eventually kill off the cinema experience, methinks.
[23:09] <ryguy> cybersplice, alright thanks
[23:10] <mikejet> ryguy : The only way I get the netflix player to work on ubuntu is inside Windows-7 running in a VirtualBox.
[23:10] <cybersplice> ryguy, Perhaps not what you wanted to hear, but it IS the safe / legal way.
[23:10] <cybersplice> :D
[23:10] <ryguy> youch, Im runnin on a 850MHz pentium 3
[23:10] <obsidieth> does anyone else use enlightement?
[23:10] <queso_> DigitalKiwi: session -S sessionname  -- found it, thanks :)
[23:10] <cybersplice> obsidieth, Nope, just you!
[23:10]  * cybersplice is kidding.
[23:10] <mneptok> obsidieth: check in #e17
[23:11] <SuspectZero> obsidieth, i do
[23:11] <SuspectZero> and the channel is #e
[23:11] <SuspectZero> not #e17
[23:13] <mom_> cybersplice, got it to work :)
[23:13] <trinium> yeah
[23:14] <trinium> hello
[23:14] <cybersplice> mom_, beat me to it. what'd you do?
[23:15] <Yanick_> FiReSTaRT, yes, that's a good reason
[23:16] <mom_> cybersplice, switched to alsa in the sound configuration
[23:16] <jmad980> O___o: Hi
[23:17] <q_> good night to all
[23:20] <cybersplice> mom_, d'oh
[23:20] <RPG_Master> I am unable to click the play/pause button on embed youtube players :(
[23:21] <RPG_Master> But I can still watch videos on youtube.com

[23:28] <veloz> Ola alguem pode me ajudar a resolver problema de conecção com a internet?

[23:29] <dhendrix> what's the quickest way to find out which pool (main, multiverse, universe, etc) a package belongs to? I can't seem to get this info using apt-cache search or dpkg-query.
[23:29] <Stormx2> Hi guys. I've installed Windows 7 over Vista and reinstalled GRUB in the usual way. Windows is complaining "BOOTMGR not found". What should I do?
[23:29] <veloz> ubottu, como que eu faço isso ?
[23:29] <scunizi> dhendrix: synaptic
[23:30] <soundray> dhendrix: try apt-cache policy packagename
[23:30] <fearful> veloz, /join #ubuntu-br
[23:30] <soundray> dhendrix: apt-cache show should tell you, too
[23:30] <dhendrix> soundray:  Ah, thanks!
[23:31] <dhendrix> listing the policy using apt-cache did the trick
[23:31] <steffan> !br > veloz
[23:31] <AnthonyZbierajew> im back
[23:31] <dhendrix> oh, and I see "apt-cache show" works as well. Awesome.
[23:31] <AnthonyZbierajew> im back
[23:31] <AnthonyZbierajew> i have what is said
[23:32] <ryguy> I'm setting up my wireless connection, which is the best option under  'Wireless Security'
[23:32] <neip> Hello, I'm trying to install gyachi while installing I got this error (automake missing or too old. This requires at least automake 1.5) how can I fix it?
[23:32] <AnthonyZbierajew> are you still able to help me?
[23:32] <dro> after doing a dist-upgrade on jaunty, eth0 no longer works, not dhcp or static
[23:32] <yofel> neip: which release do you use?
[23:33]  * jmad980 is away: X-Moto Addiction
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> can anyone help me?
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> ALERT! root.disk doesnt exist. dropping to shell
[23:33] <neip> yofel 9.04
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> is what mine said
[23:33] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: we won't know until you describe the problem. BTW, what you blog about batteries is nonsense
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> what
[23:33] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: okay, is this a fresh install?
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> kinda
[23:33] <AnthonyZbierajew> i installed it a month ago
[23:33] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: so it did boot at first?
[23:34] <yofel> neip: then check that you have 'automake' installed it should be 1.10
[23:34] <dro> after doing a dist-upgrade on jaunty, eth0 no longer works, not dhcp or static
[23:34] <steffan> !repeat | dro
[23:34] <neip> yofel how to check?
[23:35] <yofel> neip: 'apt-cache policy automake'
[23:35] <AnthonyZbierajew> eyes
[23:35] <AnthonyZbierajew> yes
[23:35] <AnthonyZbierajew> it did boot before
[23:35] <AnthonyZbierajew> and then it doesnt now
[23:35] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: what did you do with it just before it stopped booting?
[23:35] <yofel> neip: also, it sounds like you are compiling it from source. do you have all the build dependencies installed?
[23:35] <ekimmargni> Hello, is there documentation on what user_xattr ("support user extended attributes") means for an ext4 filesystem?
[23:35] <AnthonyZbierajew> left it
[23:36] <AnthonyZbierajew> i have windows next to it
[23:36] <AnthonyZbierajew> and thats what im on
[23:36] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: did you do anything that could have messed up the root partition?
[23:36] <steffan> neip: do you have build-essential installed?
[23:36] <AnthonyZbierajew> nope, nothing
[23:37] <dhendrix> AnthonyZbierajew:  Did you install windows after ubuntu? perhaps the windows installer corrupted the partition table or something.
[23:37] <neip> steffan dont know really, I'm just trying ubuntu for the first time
[23:37] <AnthonyZbierajew> it was windows as the first and ubuntu was installed second
[23:38] <AnthonyZbierajew> you can call me anthony
[23:38] <AnthonyZbierajew> my name is long
[23:38] <B3rz3rk3r> AnthonyZbierajew, then change your nick ;)
[23:38] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: the error message is strange. Did you quote it here exactly as it appeared on screen?
[23:38] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew: then make your name shorter
[23:38] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: we just type the first few characters then hit tab for auto completion.. without that when someone talks to you the line won't be highlighted.
[23:38] <AnthonyZbierajew> no
[23:39] <yofel> AnthonyZbierajew: irc clients can auto-complete nicknames with <tab> ;) (like for you: ant<tab>)
[23:39] <AnthonyZbierajew> i typed what i could remember
[23:39] <wlodi> dro: what's the ifconfig mess saying?
[23:39] <soundray> AnthonyZbierajew: I see, you don't own a pen and paper
[23:39] <neip> yofel I did type (apt-cache policy automake) it says (  Installed: 3.81-5 Candidate: 3.81-5)
[23:39] <AnthonyZbierajew> it had directories before the "root.disk
[23:39] <AnthonyZbierajew> i do have a pen and paper but i like to use my memory
[23:40] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew, it seems as if you didnt install properly in the first place
[23:40] <steffan> !build-essential > neip
[23:40] <shaullx> uh im screwed i installed ubuntu over windows partition know i have no space for nothing and i cant resize the partition because i cant even download gparted
[23:40] <soundray> Mka: he said it was booting before
[23:40] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: when you installed did you manually partiton or let ubuntu do it all on it's own?
[23:40] <AnthonyZbierajew> it worked before, just fine
[23:40] <steffan> neip: build-essential is often required when compiling from source, if that is what you're doing then you'll need that
[23:40] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew, yes I know
[23:40] <AnthonyZbierajew> ubuntu did it
[23:40] <AnthonyZbierajew> i used wubi
[23:40] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: do you have just one HD in the computer or more?
[23:41] <soundray> Mka: that kind of proves that he did install it properly
[23:41] <AnthonyZbierajew> just the one
[23:41] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew, just as I thought, Wubi!!!
[23:41] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: oh.. this is a wubi install
[23:41] <AnthonyZbierajew> yes
[23:41] <scunizi> not a real install..
[23:41] <soundray> Mka: okay, you're right, wubi=improper ;)
[23:41] <AnthonyZbierajew> no
[23:41] <dro> wlodi: everything looks normal, no ip listed while in dhcp, but ip is there with static
[23:41] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, was that a question?
[23:42] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: wubi seems to be problemmatic on some systems.. if you want to try it without "really" installing it on it's own partition then I suggest getting the windows version of virtualbox
[23:42] <dro> wlodi: everything works great from wlan0, but eth0 can't even ping gateway until i type "sudo ifconfig eth0 default gw <IP_ADDRESS>" then can only ping things in the <IP_ADDRESS>/24 subnet
[23:42] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew, why dont you do a REAL install?
[23:42] <shaullx> well if you got a solution then yes, B3rz3rk3r
[23:42] <AnthonyZbierajew> k
[23:42] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, hehe. ok. Well there is always the LiveCD ;)
[23:42] <RandomCake> Hi All, I've just bought a Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 webcam and have been trying to get it to work in 9.10, I've so far had a green screen, cheese vanish, and a black screen, I've struggled to get hold of EasyCam2 or 3 due to a Python dependancy which cannot be met, has anyone any tips on how to get this webcam working? Would I be best dropping back to 9.04, or 8.10?
[23:43] <AnthonyZbierajew> does ubuntu in virtual box work on all systems
[23:43] <AnthonyZbierajew> beb
[23:43] <shaullx> netbook no cdrom, B3rz3rk3r
[23:43] <AnthonyZbierajew> brb
[23:43] <oyzar> I know this question isn't in any way related to ubuntu, but i am wondering how i tell my program in clips to read from console, what the tutorial/help file suggests doesn't work and google doesn't give me any other answer, odds are i am doing something wrong though... Anyone know the answer or know where i can start to look for someone who can help me get to the right answer?
[23:43] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, so use a USB based one
[23:43] <scunizi> AnthonyZbierajew: any system that can run virtual box you can install most any OS into it.
[23:43] <Roasted> QUESTION - I got a curve ball question here. Let's say someone hacks my Ubuntu machine and resets my system password. How would I be able to take control over of my machine again? Could I boot to failsafe terminal and log in as root (somehow) and reset my password?
[23:43] <soundray> RandomCake: I would stick with 9.10 for now, but please ask on #ubuntu+1
[23:44] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, same thing as a cd based version but faster :)
[23:44] <wlodi> dro: what's in the /etc/network/interfaces file?
[23:44] <shaullx> only usb device but cant download the image because there is not space in the root partition, if only i could change the tmp folder or something
[23:44] <AnthonyZbierajew> oh ok
[23:44] <AnthonyZbierajew> i'll try
[23:44] <lolrofllmao> Roasted: u could boot into the live CD, recover data, and reinstall OS
[23:44] <soundray> Roasted: yes, there is a grub boot option for recovering from such a situation
[23:44] <dhendrix> Roasted:  reboot and enter single-user mode by adding "single" to the kernel command line options from your bootloader.
[23:44] <shaullx> B3rz3rk3r, cant download the image:(
[23:44] <dro> wlodi: well when running dhcp just, auth eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp
[23:44] <shaullx> too bad i dont have a pc here
[23:44] <Roasted> lolrofllmao - that's "roflmfao" material, becuase I would not reinstall my entire OS based on taht situation. I just wouldnt.
[23:44] <shaullx> it would be so simple
[23:44] <dro> wlodi: remember, everything worked until i ran dist-upgrade
[23:45] <soundray> Roasted: nobody suggested that
[23:45] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, you mean you dont have access to internet?
[23:45] <Roasted> soundray - yes, yes someone did. See above.
[23:45] <dro> wlodi: i normally use gnome network manager, I even tried wicd, and even tried manually setting dhcp/static in /etc/network/interfaces
[23:45] <longtime> Hi
[23:45] <shaullx> then how am i talking to you right now lol
[23:45] <Mka> AnthonyZbierajew, but besides the Virtualbox stuff, what is holding you back from just partitioning the hard drive and install ubuntu properly?
[23:45] <Roasted> dhendrix - is there a guide on what you suggest?  I at least get half a gold star on that one. Right?
[23:46] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, then just save it somewhere else :p
[23:46] <shaullx> and windows wont even boot now
[23:46] <neip> steffan is there something that I need to change in this command (./configure --disable-rpath --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix /usr) when I paste it.. it says please read INSTALL.txt
[23:46] <dhendrix> Roasted:  Hmmm, try http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/grub-boot-into-single-user-mode/
[23:46] <soundray> Roasted: what dhendrix suggests amounts to the same as using the Recovery boot option from grub
[23:47] <oyzar> so noone have any idea where to start looking for my questions?
[23:47] <shaullx> it wont let me save because "tmp" folder has no space or something like that
[23:47] <longtime> Was wondering if anyone had ever encountered the problem with their bios lying to them about how much RAM they just installed?
[23:47] <dro> I believe I have a routing issue, can't ping anything in the network or outside network until i type "sudo ifconfig eth0 default gw <IP_ADDRESS>" and then can only ping things in the network <IP_ADDRESS>/24 but nothing other than that
[23:47] <Roasted> soundray - is the recovery boot option osmething that shows up in the boot menu?
[23:48] <dhendrix> Roasted:  oh, i guess single user mode does requite a password to log in. So if your root password was changed, then you're probably hosed.
[23:48] <soundray> Roasted: yes, by default, it's right under the default option.
[23:48] <dhendrix> s/requite/require
[23:48] <soundray> dhendrix: no, it doesn't
[23:48] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, so save to another external media device, or make room in your linux partition
[23:48] <soundray> oyzar: please ask your question. Make it short and sweet.
[23:48] <wlodi> dro: have you tried clearing the routing cache?
[23:48] <Roasted> soundray - cant I just somehow unlock the root account and log into that in failsafe terminal and reset the PW via terminal?
[23:48] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, or just format the disk :p
[23:48] <dro> wlodi: how do I do that?
[23:49] <disobeyedrelic> is there a ps2 channel lol??
[23:49] <oyzar> I know this question isn't in any way related to ubuntu, but i am wondering how i tell my program in clips to read from console, what the tutorial/help file suggests doesn't work and google doesn't give me any other answer, odds are i am doing something wrong though... Anyone know the answer or know where i can start to look for someone who can help me get to the right answer?
[23:49] <shaullx> i have room in my hdd i dont have room in my linux partition and i cant make any because i have nothing that accupies space i just did a clean install
[23:49] <soundray> oyzar: please rephrase, it's not clear what you are trying to achieve
[23:49] <shaullx> only i chose to mix it with windows
[23:49] <shaullx> here the problem lays:(
[23:50] <shaullx> is it possible to download ubuntu image with terminal?
[23:50] <oyzar> I am trying to use Read in CLIPS
[23:50] <soundray> Roasted: if you're still logged in, then it's possible. But, really, the situation you describe -- a hacked root -- calls for a reinstallation
[23:50] <AnthonyZbierajew> bye
[23:50] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, yeah you gotta be carfeul what you are doing when dualbooting
[23:50] <dro> wlodi: "sudo ip route flush cache" ?
[23:50] <scunizi> shaullx: sure.. use wget
[23:50] <wlodi> dro: crap, I don't remember at the moment:)
[23:50] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[23:50] <stinky> shaullx:  try : wget theURLehre.com
[23:50] <Roasted> soundray - well damn. Even in windows you can force a reset. I'm kind of surprised you couldnt in linux.
[23:51] <shaullx> and how do i choose destination?
[23:51] <wlodi> dro: have you checked the /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf?
[23:51] <B3rz3rk3r> Roasted, if you ahve to reboot Linux, your doing it wrong :p
[23:51] <scunizi> shaullx: man wget
[23:51] <stinky> shaullx: it is where ever the termial is, use CD to change directorys
[23:51] <Roasted> b3rz3rk3r - whats your excuse if you're a dual booter then? Not much choice there. ;)
[23:52] <B3rz3rk3r> Roasted, haha... ok. you got me there
[23:52] <Roasted> b3rz3rk3r - being a gamer, I'm kind of stuck in the often-rebooting category.
[23:52] <AzizLight> I "extended" the cd command by creating a bash function. But my new function doesn't recognize $CDPATH. is there a way to make the two work together?
[23:52] <Roasted> I love linux, but I love games. So the Vista/Ubuntu combo is kind of a requirement.
[23:52] <dro> wlodi: no, because static didn't work either
[23:52] <B3rz3rk3r> Roasted, i hear ya man. Im currently dualbooting too just for my games
[23:52] <blouf> hi
[23:52] <scunizi> shaullx: wget http://mirrors.ccs.neu.edu/releases.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso
[23:52] <yofel> AzizLight: better ask that in #bash
[23:53] <soundray> Roasted: if you're moving on to chitchat, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:53] <Roasted> soundray - uh, no
[23:53] <shaullx> Cannot write to `ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso' (No space left on device).
[23:53] <Roasted> I'm actually still very interested in finding out if theres any way to work around the scenario I described above.
[23:53] <shaullx> no luck here too
[23:53] <shaullx> :(
[23:53] <spook2012> hello
[23:53] <blouf> anyone know how to make the buttons of the title bar be on the left instead of the right ? using gconf editor didn't work, any suggestion ?
[23:53] <wlodi> dro: do you normally use the network manager?
[23:54] <shaullx> then only 1 option left..go to someone download and past it on my usb device and format the hdd
[23:54] <spook2012> all linux geeks?/ and nerds?
[23:54] <stinky> blouf: if you are using compiz try the emerald theme , it lets you tweak the buttons really easy. I am not shure how to do it in gnome metacity though
[23:54] <mneptok> blouf: you could change Metacity themes ....
[23:54] <kj4> spook2012: whats wrong?
[23:54] <B3rz3rk3r> blouf, there are lots of themes out on "t3h 1nt3rn3tz" that will do just that
[23:55] <dro> wlodi: yes, but right now it's uninstalled and i'm using wicd
[23:55] <spook2012> Nothing Kj4
[23:55] <soundray> Roasted: there probably is, but your query is very vague
[23:55] <TheFunkbomb> hey, I unmounted a USB drive and now I can't get it to show up
[23:55] <{Onyx}> This isn't good. I installed an updated version of ALSA and it wasn't working so I uninstalled it. Now to reinstall it wants to remove all kinds of  stuff like gnome-desktop.
[23:55] <eut> i've recently installed the sun-java6-jdk with aptitude. what should i set JAVA_HOME  to?
[23:55] <eut> its currently unset and other programs are breaking. the docs say i'm supposed to set JAVA_HOME to the installation path of the java jdk
[23:55] <elmar_> hi
[23:55] <spook2012> my system is wrong
[23:55] <Roasted> soundray - how is it vague? You have 1 system. 1 user on this system. and 1 unknown password. How do you solve the riddle?
[23:55] <mneptok> Roasted: buy a console?
[23:55] <eut> any idea where this installation path is?
[23:55] <kj4> spook2012: whats wrong with it?
[23:55] <blouf> that wasn't my question.
[23:56] <shaullx> can i install some kind of a partition manager with apt-get?
[23:56] <scunizi> eut: whereis java in terminal
[23:56] <B3rz3rk3r> shaullx, apt-get gparted
[23:56] <shaullx> that seems to be the only thing that does able to download for me
[23:56] <mneptok> !gparted > shaullx
[23:56] <stinky> shaullx: qtparted is a good one I think
[23:56] <spook2012> problems whit Vista
[23:56] <dhendrix> oyzar:  oh, is that CLIPS thing just some variant of C?
