[17:18] <Duker> overclucker: Glad Im changing it then
[17:18] <mrbkap> ActionParsnip: That's what I was hoping to hear :)
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> Duker: make everyone a normal user then add the ones you want to give sudo access to the 'admin' group. You could chown the script to a group so that only users in a different group can run the command if you wish
[17:18] <harm_> hi guys :)
[17:18] <cisc0kid> hello everybody!
[17:18] <Duker> ActionParsnip: Thanks1
[17:18] <jessica> I think I'll try an older kernel.
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> Duker: obviously those in teh admin group will be able to run it with sudo
[17:19] <harm_> Does anyone know if you can develope for iOS in ubuntu ?
[17:19] <hrolf> Hi #ubuntu, I have openjdk installed and the iced tea plugin too. When I try open .jnlp files (topcoder) it starts downloading then gets stuck and doesn't progress? What is the problem?
[17:20] <Duker> But by user running the server in the admin group I'll be more secure than having my main admin/root launch the server?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> harm_: may help http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1056426/iphone-app-development-on-ubuntu
[17:20] <cisc0kid> harm: maybe you can dev ios within Vbox or the like?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> Duker: yes as the command will be running as user rather than root, i'd check in a minecraft channel to see if this is appropriate
[17:21] <ki7rw> still getting bad signature messages after importing key updates
[17:21] <opalepatrick> ok, lost connection - Is LVM something I can install 'after' having installed 11.10?
[17:22] <dr_willis> opalepatrick:  i dont think so..  its how you partion your disks.
[17:22] <dr_willis> !lvm
[17:22] <harm_> @actionparsnip thanks

[17:24] <Solshine> Hi. Is it at all possible to install a different operating system to Ubuntu via a mounted .iso?
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> Solshine: in a VM yes, you will need to boot to the ISO as you expect to install it properly afaik
[17:26] <Solshine> That's kind of beyond the scope of my skills... Can I make a USB stick boot instead? With something like unetbootin for example?
[17:26] <projekt26> firefox does not update to the latest version 9 on my ubuntu. do I have to change something?
[17:26] <Solshine> The OS in question is WinXP.
[17:26] <rhin0> is it possible easily to mount an ubuntu iso in virtualbox
[17:26] <rhin0> without cutting a cd
[17:28] <kingofswords> is there an issue with some shopping baskets on web and ubuntu?
[17:28] <tokam> http://pastebin.com/eHuca79j
[17:28] <Solshine> Ah, found an answer on google. Thanks for the help. It is apparantly possible to use unetbootin to make a winxp stick. You need a digital  copy of your system (iso) and gparted (to make sure your stick is NTFS).
[17:28] <tokam> gnome-panel crashes all the time. I use the gnome2 fallback hda intel graphics and 64bit ubuntu
[17:29] <tokam> when I start e.g. evolution or pidgin the panel crashes I pasted the error messages in the pastebin
[17:29] <tokam> Gleitkommaausnahme = Floatingpoint exception
[17:29] <overclucker> rhin0: yes, it's very easy to mount isos in virtualbox
[17:30] <tokam> how to start with gnome-session-fallback?

[17:37] <kingofswords> www.safercigs.com
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: did you try the xorg edgers archive ppa (less fresh), to get the later driver
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: you may also need to run:  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[17:37] <kingofswords> ive never had problem filling forms in b4
[17:37] <oneliner> i ll try config first
[17:37] <dr_willis> http://www.safercigs.com/ dosent even go to a actual site here... (on windows)
[17:38] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 11.10 GNOME Shell 3.2.1] I am recording an internet radio stream using Banshee Streamrecorder extension . Why can I not hear the sound at at the same time?

[17:39] <hrolf> ActionParsnip: How do I know if it requires sun java?
[17:39] <oneliner> ActionParsnip:  it complained about incomplete data in the xorg file but backed it up and wrote a new one

[17:39] <kingofswords> oops sorry safercigs.co.uk
[17:39] <oneliner> reboot? try to start lightdm?
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> hrolf: it may state on the developer site, or you can ask them
[17:40] <oneliner> so am rebooting
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: ideal, ok reboot
[17:41] <pippo> ciao
[17:41] <tacomaster> so is ubuntu 12.04 still in alpha?
[17:41] <oneliner> what can i replace quiet splash with to get a verbose of what s going on during boot?
[17:42] <pangolin> !12.04
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> tacomaster: yes til 20(12) in the (4)th month, AApril
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> tacomaster: hence the version numbering
[17:43] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: system hung
[17:43] <oneliner> no access to ttyl
[17:44] <oneliner> what do i replace "quiet splah" with in order to get verbose at boot?
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: just remove them :)
[17:45] <oneliner> ah
[17:45] <oneliner> three days trying to figure out why a brand new machines that can run windows 7 flawlessly cant boot ubuntu
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: different OS, different support
[17:46] <oneliner> will it all end with me saying ubuntu just dosent cut it? or nvidia are jerks?
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: all my hardware works out of the box in any linux I have tried, It took me 2 hours to get sound working and crank the pagefile
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: and that was a fresh install Win7, Win7 doesn't cut it
[17:47] <oneliner> then we should probably swap gear ;)
[17:47] <oneliner> did nvidia con me with this card?
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: my stuff is from 2003/4 ish

[17:47] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: yes, nvidia 6150LE 512Mb
[17:48] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: oh, wait, so you saying i should like, ditch the novelty hardware?
[17:48] <wh1t3> anyone have any idea what could cause that and how to fix it?
[17:48] <djazz> i only hear sound when i unplug/plug in power cable, on laptop
[17:48] <oneliner> prolly get a green monochrome 5" while am at it
[17:48] <djazz> :(
[17:48] <djazz> for about half a sec
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: no, just saying that some hardware working ok in Windows doesn't mean much
[17:49] <oneliner> you re right, means as much not much as not working on ubuntu at all
[17:49] <Guest19664> hello
[17:49] <Guest19664> I have a question
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: did you try the xorg edgers update ppa>?
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> Guest19664: ask away
[17:50] <djazz> any hints to get sound working?
[17:51] <Balthazar> djazz: Do you have Gnome ALSA mixer installed?
[17:51] <zoLevDotCom> Hi!
[17:51] <djazz> yes

[17:51] <Guest19664> I have installed ubuntu, and I want to change the login screen. I installed now LDXM, but when I restart the computer the old gnome login screen appears. so how can I set the LDXM as default login screen?
[17:51] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: should i google that?
[17:51] <oneliner> silly question

[17:55] <djazz> kk
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> djazz: keep that link handy
[17:55] <hrolf> ActionParsnip: I did this i.e. ran it through the command line and it opened up (with OpenJDK) so I don't think it is because it requires Sun Java. Can you seem to be able to spot any issues now?
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> DjMadness: if adding the line doesnt work after reboot read the bug

[17:56] <hrolf> ActionParsnip: Yes.
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> hrolf: sweet
[17:57] <hrolf> ActionParsnip: But when I right click -> open with -> Iced tea web start 6 it, tries to download the .jar file and then gets stuck at 6% and after a while reports the error I pasted earlier.
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> hrolf: you could make a bash script, or alias to run that command easier
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> hrolf: or make a copy of the launcher for Iced tea in /usr/share/applications     and change the Exec= line to run that
[17:58] <djazz> ActionParsnip: no diff
[17:58] <djazz> same bug

[18:02] <TehAndrewRyan> I need help regarding ramdisk within Ubuntu 11.10. I've made a ramdisk (3,9 GB standard size, don't remember how I set it up though as I got help from another guy) to run my Minecraft server on, but now I'd like to shrink it to 2 GB temporarily, since I'd like to assign more ram to Java instead. I however have no clue on how to do this. The ramdisk is mounted on /dev/shm/minecraft
[18:02] <djazz> ActionParsnip: yeah, before i rebooted...
[18:02] <djazz> ;)
[18:02] <mk13> ActionParsnip: he rebooted... he prolly doesn't have it still...
[18:03] <MahaVishnu> TehAndrewRyan{} does this ramdisk use an entry in /etc/fstab ?
[18:03] <TehAndrewRyan> MahaVishnu: How do I check that? cat /etc/fstab ?
[18:03] <MahaVishnu> TehAndrewRyan{} thats a good way.
[18:03] <Rod_> sup folks
[18:04] <djazz> headphones, same bug
[18:04] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: the the repository is downloading, the have a shallow pipe so its gonna take a while, say do you have any insight onto why there are so many blogged and reported issues about recent nvidia and 11.04 onwards?
[18:04] <oneliner> this is just uncanny
[18:04] <The_Pugilist> I was trying to dd from sda to sdd, but wound up typing sdc instead... realized it too late, and now my sdc is totally messed up... it got about 8 gigs in... is there any way to recover?
[18:04] <djazz> im using 11.10
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> djazz: you could have bookmarked it....or it will be in your hostory
[18:04] <djazz> im just lazy, its probably in log
[18:05] <Rod_> I just decided to try Ubuntu as a file server for my enterprise. Is it possible to act as a file server AND as a windows-updates-distributor (aka WSUS)???
[18:05] <lesshaste> I am trying to compile a cython program that uses gsl libraries.. I get undefined reference to `gsl_rng_mt19937'
[18:05] <djazz> ActionParsnip: any solution there?
[18:05] <lesshaste> any idea how to fix that?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> djazz: not sure, read through
[18:05] <mk13> djazz: what is the model of computer?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: never had a single issue, its why I only buy nvidia
[18:06] <djazz> mk13: Acer Aspire TimelineX 3830TG
[18:06] <oneliner> i used to be on that boat
[18:06] <oneliner> then this aledged top notch LEMON landed on my lap
[18:06] <Resistance> oneliner:  the issues only occur with Optimus cards, i'm not sure if that's still the case, but that might be why you see so many blog posts about it
[18:07] <pksadiq> lesshaste: try compiling after installing the package like libgsl0-dev or something like that
[18:07] <lesshaste> pksadiq: it is installed
[18:07] <oneliner> Resistance: am living kicking proof that it still is
[18:07] <Atlantic777> lesshaste: -lgsl ?
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: does it have dual GPUs, as in intel AND nvidia. Or is it only nvidia?
[18:07] <mk13> djazz: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/783582 that is the link he pasted earlier
[18:07] <lesshaste> Atlantic777: that made things worse :)
[18:07] <djazz> mk13: i am already there

[18:09] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: cool, makes life easier
[18:09] <Atlantic777> lesshaste: that means that you need more -l things. Maybe -lcblas?
[18:09] <oneliner> or, so i thought
[18:09] <lesshaste> Atlantic777: just needed gcc -O3 -I/usr/include/python2.6 -o fasttest fasttest.c -lpython2.6 -lpthread -lm -lutil -ldl -fno-strict-aliasing -lgsl -lgslcblas
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: could try pre release precise, may help

[18:10] <Atlantic777> yw lesshaste
[18:10] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: ubuntu you mean +1?
[18:10] <Atlantic777> lesshaste: that bothered me too, with sdl. :D
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: its prerelease but you can install the nvidia driver in liveCD environment to see if it's ok, just restart the x server instead of the system when you have got it in
[18:11] <wh1t3> When I want to add something to a playlist somewhere (or basically whenever a file selection dialog pops up) I get the following error: "Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'file'.". Any idea what might cause this/how I can solve it?
[18:12] <oneliner> unless you can tell me there s some serious nvidia backing inthe 12.04i doubt i ll help
[18:12] <oneliner> but as an experiment i wont cross it off just yet
[18:12] <TehAndrewRyan> MahaVishnu: How do I make it an actual entry there, without messing up my current config?
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: the later kernel may help
[18:13] <smile4ever> Hi folks. Is there a way to set gnash as default for a website and adobe flash for the others? :p
[18:13] <oneliner> i ve been digging; most of the broken functionality boils down to careless symlinks broken and changes to semantics which i am sure no one bothered letting nvidia know about
[18:14] <oneliner> almost an orchestrated ati amd coup

[18:20] <oneliner> i ve been following and updating and upgrading ubuntu for a while, this is prolly the worst version to ever hit me

[18:29] <e414546> hi need some sandbox program and i also keep getting "ratelimit.c: 3 events suppressed", which makes my pc freeze. any ideas?
[18:30] <e414546> ratelimit.c: 3 events suppressed completely chops the music when its on.. but it still does freeze my pc when there is no music on!
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> Duker: there should be a user manager or ni cli you can use usermod or useradd
[18:30] <spankstar> need some help... im trying to install ubuntu on my netbook but it keeps stalling after i select keyboard layout. :(
[18:31] <andyn> sounds familiar
[18:31] <Duker> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[18:31] <spankstar> it has mint on it right now and mint runs like crap
[18:31] <spankstar> ive had ubuntu on it before too.
[18:31] <oneliner> spankstar: tried nomodeset from the special functions? (f6 in the cd boot menu)
[18:32] <spankstar> ill give it a try
[18:32] <spankstar> ty
[18:32] <Duker> ActionParsnip: Only has the standard and admin groups, is there a way I could change standard permissions to everything except sudo?
[18:33] <e414546> cmon fellers, i aint got all day to wait for an answer
[18:33] <spankstar> oneliner when will i see this option. im botting from usb
[18:33] <oneliner> ah, thats another boot, i was expecting cd boot
[18:33] <oneliner> spankstar: should be able to press tab and add it
[18:34] <Arnolds> So anyone can help me?
[18:34] <Arnolds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/785994/
[18:34] <Arnolds> Getting an error on nvidia-xconfig
[18:34] <Arnolds> VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
                   Device section "Default Device" must have a Driver line.
[18:35] <oneliner> Arnolds: thats not a problem if it writes another file
[18:35] <oneliner> should mention it later inthe answer
[18:36] <oneliner> backed up xorg.conf and wrote another file
[18:36] <Pickleface> hey
[18:36] <Pickleface> how big does my dvd have to be to burn ubuntu onto it
[18:36] <Resistance> Pickleface:  burn how?  you mean write the Live image to it?
[18:37] <Arnolds> onliner: So I just have to restart now?
[18:37] <spankstar> oneliner i pressed tab at the bootmenu
[18:37] <spankstar> should i just type in nomodeset ?
[18:37] <xangua> Pickleface: burn the ubuntu iso as Image
[18:37] <Arnolds> oneLiner: So I just have to restart now?
[18:37] <oneliner> spankstar: am no usb pro but yeah thats the general gist
[18:37] <mk13> Pickleface: considering the ubuntu .iso is from a CD, and DVD should be large enough
[18:37] <oneliner> Arnolds: pretty much
[18:38] <mk13> Pickleface: and = any*
[18:38] <Arnolds> oneliner: Thanks! :)
[18:38] <Pickleface> xangua erm, how :S
[18:38] <oneliner> should stick around till it works,.. something i guess he s about to find out :)
[18:38] <mk13> Pickleface: are you currently in windows?
[18:39] <Pickleface> mk13 yeah
[18:39] <Pickleface> win 7
[18:39] <mk13> Pickleface: Win7?
[18:39] <oneliner> spankstar: there are other boot time command line options for boots that lock up, some specially handy for laptops,
[18:40] <mk13> Pickleface: ok, in that case: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Burn-a-CD-or-DVD-from-an-ISO-file
[18:40] <Duker> Is there a way I could change standard user group permissions to everything except sudo?
[18:40] <mk13> Pickleface: you may have to right click on the file and choose "Burn iso to disc" or similar
[18:42] <oneliner> Duker: am sorry but i think thats how it is right now?
[18:42] <smile4ever> Is Ubuntu supporting UEFI at the moment? :)
[18:42] <tomodachi> smile4ever:  what is UEFI compared to EFI?
[18:42] <tomodachi> since it supports EFI
[18:43] <smile4ever> tomodachi: UEFI is the real standard
[18:43] <hrolf> How do I quit Thunderbird in Ubuntu 11.10 (I want it removed from the tray) ?
[18:43] <smile4ever> EFI is the main part of the standard
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> hrolf: right click it maybe...
[18:43] <Duker> How can I chown file inside a directory, I seem to own the folder but nothing in it
[18:44] <xangua> hrolf: control+q
[18:44] <xangua> or from que menu, quit hrolf
[18:44] <tomodachi> smile4ever: well I boot my Mac in linux and i use EFI
[18:44] <mk13> hrolf: just exiting should close it... the envelope icon is there anyways I believe
[18:44] <smile4ever> Apple uses EFI :)
[18:44] <smile4ever> But they should be using UEFI
[18:44] <smile4ever> :p
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Duker: chown -R      will recursively chown
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> tomodachi: uefi supercedes efi accoring to wikipedia...
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> smile4ever: aslong as it boots, who cares
[18:46] <mk13> !ubottu
[18:46] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: ppa is done, should i rerun nvidia xconfig or it finger crossing time?
[18:46] <spankstar> oneliner still hanging on keyboard select
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: i'd try the reboot, should be ok
[18:46] <oneliner> spankstar: there are other boot time command line options for boots that lock up, some specially handy for laptops,
[18:46] <spankstar> where do i find these
[18:47] <smile4ever> ActionParsnip: I do ;) There is a difference :p
[18:47] <Duker> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[18:47] <oneliner> like acpi_osi="linux"
[18:47] <oneliner> but as i said, usb boot is a whole other ball game, i havent played with it much
[18:48] <hrolf> mk13: When I press F10 I don't Thunderbird to show its menu, so I believe it is still there
[18:48] <oneliner> also dont use a sans stick (its u3 function gets in the way)
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> smile4ever: in what way?
[18:48] <smile4ever> oneliner: usb boot is always working here :)
[18:48] <smile4ever> ActionParsnip: If you buy a UEFI pc and Ubuntu only supports EFI you have a chance ;) but it maybe it doesn't work ;)
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> smile4ever: most of the stuff wkipedia says it does, grub has been doing for ages
[18:49] <smile4ever> I will try it! :)
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> smile4ever: its in a default ubuntu
[18:49] <smile4ever> hmm.. that's a problem ;)
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> smile4ever: normal PC bios can boot grub then do all that stuff already
[18:49] <smile4ever> I use minimal Ubuntu install with Lubuntu-touch :p
[18:50] <slayer> can someone tell me where in Ubuntu vi is set to start at the beggining of a line when entering insert mode?
[18:51] <oneliner> anyway the xorg edgers work can be upstreamed into main dev?
[18:52] <spankstar> oneliner where do i find these commands
[18:52] <xangua> oneliner: there is one reason is called Edgers
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: did the ppa help?
[18:52] <oneliner> apparently it worked, still have to setup dual heads and all that
[18:52] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: indeed
[18:52] <overclucker> slayer: i + Home isn't enough?
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: thought so, you have a super new nvidia chip so you need the newer driver
[18:53] <slayer> overclucker:  when i go into inseert mode, it jumps to the start of the line, i want it at the point I hit enter
[18:53] <slayer> er.. i  (insert mode)
[18:53] <oneliner> xangua; am not using military grade hardware; this shouldnt be a hidden resource
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: the driver version in the official repos isn't new enough for your kit
[18:56] <overclucker> slayer: hmm, 'i' should insert at cursor by default
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: always better to stay mid range for zero issues :)
[18:56] <slayer> over, it's not.. hence my issue :)
[18:57] <pksadiq> slayer: what about append, a?
[18:57] <slayer> jumps to end of line with "a"
[18:58] <oneliner> ActionParsnip: that is ok for "working on the machine", but am trying to "work with the machine" doing fancy 3d and things that require this heavy gear
[18:58] <oneliner> am just saying new hardware shouldnt be taboo
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> oneliner: indeed
[19:00] <overclucker> slayer: does ':map i i' resolve this issue?
[19:01] <overclucker> ah, he left
[19:05] <spankstar> oneliner you said something about other commands?
[19:05] <Pickleface> hello
[19:06] <kfizz> I'm going to be writing some software to sync data from a frequently-updated network share into a database. My thoughts on this are: cron job to run a python script to check for new files and import those files into the MySQL DB. Anyone have any input/suggestions?
[19:06] <Pickleface> my ubuntu looks really weird when I try it out
[19:06] <Pickleface> really huge, I think cause of my graphics card
[19:06] <Pickleface> how do i fix?
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: what GPU do you use?
[19:06] <Pickleface> GPU?
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: graphics chip?
[19:07] <oneliner> spankstar: give me a sec i ll try to google those out for you
[19:07] <Pickleface> Nividia Geforce GT 520
[19:07] <Guest13013> hi?
[19:07] <reisio> Guest13013: hi
[19:07] <Guest13013> can someone please supoort me
[19:07] <Guest13013> ?
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: ok, run:  sudo apt-get install nvidia-current     and reboot
[19:08] <Guest13013> i have a realtek 8187 installed that gives alot problems of disconnections in ubuntu so i buyed a usb pen wireless but now i dunno how to install it
[19:08] <Guest13013> please
[19:08] <Pickleface> ActionParsnip erm..when / where do I run it, im really new :S I havent even installed ubuntu yet just the trail version on my disk
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Guest13013: what is the output of:  lsusb     one line will identify the device
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: open a terminal and run it. I suggest you get fully updated first
[19:09] <Pickleface> whats a terminal?
[19:09] <Pickleface> how do i get fully updated?
[19:10] <reisio> Guest13013: also if you change your nick (/nick someNewName) it'll be much simpler to converse with you
[19:10] <reisio> Pickleface: CTRL+ALT+t, possibly
[19:10] <Guest13013> should i paste output here?
[19:10] <reisio> Guest13013: http://dpaste.com/ would be better
[19:10] <oneliner> spankstar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Introduction  a bit of a long read but will help you
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: use software centre, its available if you click the icon in the top left
[19:10] <Stormx2> Hey. Using ubuntu 11.10 64-bit with an NVIDIA 8800 GTX. What graphics driver should I use? Here are my options: http://imgur.com/Qrl3a
[19:10] <reisio> Guest13013: or use the pastebinit program and give us the link it outputs
[19:10] <Stormx2> I was told that at least 180+ was recommended for my card
[19:10] <Pickleface> ActionParsnip im on win 7 right now
[19:11] <reisio> Stormx2: I'd go with current
[19:11] <reisio> Stormx2: if that doesn't work you can change it to something else
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Stormx2: just run:  sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[19:11] <reisio> Stormx2: (by selecting the 'failsafe' option at the login screen)
[19:11] <Stormx2> reisio, Why not current-updates?
[19:12] <Pickleface> ActionParsnip okay so I go back to my trial thing, then look for a terminal then type in sudo apt-get install nvidia-current ?
[19:12] <reisio> Stormx2: does it say 'Recommended' beside that one?
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: get fully updated first
[19:12] <Pickleface> ActionParsnip how do I do that ?
[19:12] <reisio> Stormx2: course if you're using 173 and there are no issues, you could just stick to that one
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: software centre
[19:13] <Stormx2> reisio, ActionParsnip, thanks
[19:13] <Pickleface> ActionParsnip ok how dO i get to software center ?
[19:13] <Stormx2> Also, how do I access the startup applications/services dialogue?
[19:13] <Pickleface> also should I dl the new ubuntu or the 10.04 1 ?
[19:14] <reisio> Stormx2: in 11.10... probably hit the Ubuntu icon at top left and type 'start' and see what it lists
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Pickleface: click the icon in the top left and search there
[19:14] <reisio> Stormx2: or session
[19:14] <Stormx2> reisio, I'm using the gnome classic desktop
[19:15] <reisio> Stormx2: ah
[19:15] <reisio> Stormx2: then it'd be in a menu under preferences somewhere
[19:15] <Stormx2> meh it's probably google-able
[19:15] <reisio> I doubt it's that hard to find
[19:16] <Edward2> Hello. Just installed Ubuntu 11.10 and I'm having problems in getting sound.
[19:16] <fabiofelgueiras> hi again
[19:16] <fabiofelgueiras> its me the wireless dude
[19:16] <fabiofelgueiras> i go paste in pastebin
[19:16] <reisio> Edward2: what problems?
[19:16] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: ok
[19:17] <Edward2> No sound at all.
[19:17] <reisio> Edward2: are there speakers hooked up?
[19:17] <Edward2> I got headphones.
[19:17] <reisio> Edward2: laptop?
[19:17] <fabiofelgueiras> ok here the output of the lsusb
[19:17] <Edward2> reisio: Tower, 3 outlets (I think).
[19:17] <fabiofelgueiras> http://pastebin.com/QcPdFyrn
[19:18] <fabiofelgueiras> i whant to unistall the realtek and use the ralink
[19:18] <reisio> Edward2: okay, hit the volume icon at top right, make sure important channels aren't muted or at 0 volume
[19:18] <Duker> If I switch users do terminal processes stop? Like if I have a user running a teamspeak server and I switch users will the TS server stop?
[19:18] <reisio> Duker: nope
[19:19] <Duker> Thanks :D
[19:19] <reisio> Duker: okay I should clarify: if you ran the server properly, it will persist
[19:19] <Duker> Hmm
[19:19] <reisio> Duker: you're talking about switching users in GNOME?
[19:19] <Duker> ubuntu 11.10
[19:19] <slakcphil> how can my freenode nick be registered in ubuntu irc? same thing?
[19:19] <reisio> Duker: right, GNOME
[19:19] <slakcphil> freenode seems down..
[19:20] <reisio> Duker: it should start a whole new X session, not log out the existing, if you use fast switch
[19:20] <reisio> Duker: (that is: don't "log out", just "switch user")
[19:20] <reisio> slakcphil: this is freenode
[19:20] <fabiofelgueiras> the realtek gives me alot of disconnection problems, please someone help me install this new usb pen wireless
[19:20] <Duker> Nice, thanks Reisio
[19:20] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: did you paste the info?
[19:20] <fabiofelgueiras> http://pastebin.com/QcPdFyrn
[19:20] <fabiofelgueiras> yep
[19:21] <slakcphil> reiso, cool, i could not connect to the "freenode" selection in xchat, only the "Ubuntu Servers" selection but reg worked of course
[19:21] <reisio> slakcphil: odd
[19:21] <slakcphil> reisio
[19:21] <slakcphil> yeah
[19:21] <reisio> slakcphil: possibly your 'freenode' item was mapped to a server that no longer is functioning
[19:21] <fabiofelgueiras> cmon mates let reisio now give me a hand :)
[19:21] <reisio> slakcphil: if you use irc.freenode.net (the round-robin) it should work more often
[19:21] <slakcphil> could be,  well it was irc.freenode.net
[19:21] <reisio> ah, that's odd, that's what I use
[19:22] <reisio> maybe your ISP hates you
[19:22] <slakcphil> yeah they do! :P
[19:22] <Edward2> reisio: Clicked the speaker, not muted, volume max. Clicked settings, Output volume 100%, Alerts 80%, Hardware empty, Input empty, Output: "Dummy Output".
[19:22] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: can you pastebin the output of lspci -n ?
[19:22] <slakcphil> i use tor alot
[19:22] <slakcphil> and nmap ;0
[19:22] <reisio> Edward2: okay, open up a terminal (CTRL+ALT+t), run 'alsamixer', look for the same thing (low volume or muted [MM] channels)
[19:22] <reisio> slakcphil: mmm, maybe they changed their thing
[19:22] <reisio> freenode has its own tor system
[19:23] <reisio> would ask #freenode about it
[19:23] <slakcphil> see  i cannot connect to chat with tor
[19:23] <slakcphil> never have
[19:24] <overclucker> kfizz: you can use inotify in place of cron. not that there is anything wrong with using cron for his sort of thing.
[19:24] <fabiofelgueiras> http://pastebin.com/hSiMi03d here it is ty for the help
[19:24] <slakcphil> not error with tor but with freenode
[19:24] <kfizz> overclucker, haven't heard of that. Any benefits over cron?
[19:24] <fabiofelgueiras> the rtl is a usb to but this is a laptop
[19:24] <fabiofelgueiras> so is internal usb i think
[19:25] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: oh right you said it was usb?
[19:26] <overclucker> kfizz: inotify detects file system changes, which would allow you to run code specific to those changes.
[19:26] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: what's the make/model#?
[19:26] <fabiofelgueiras> yes the new one i buyed is usb
[19:26] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: of the dongle
[19:26] <kfizz> overclucker, I just read the wikipedia article. I'm sure I could Google this question, but is there a way to configure it to watch just a certain (mounted) directory?
[19:29] <Edward2> reisio: Master 100; Tone off, off; Bass 50; Treble 50; 3D Control 100; PCM Center 100; PCM front 100, 100; PCM LFE 100.
[19:30] <reisio> Edward2: and none of those say 'MM' at the bottom?
[19:30] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, sry got disconnected
[19:30] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: what's the make/model#?
[19:30] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: of the dongle
[19:30] <fabiofelgueirass> of the new card?
[19:30] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: yes
[19:31] <fabiofelgueirass> is a wn727n
[19:31] <reisio> Edward2: should say 00 and below 100, or MM and below 100; MM means muted
[19:31] <fabiofelgueirass> tp link
[19:31] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: lsmod | grep -i rt2800usb
[19:31] <overclucker> kfizz: yup, it can do that
[19:31] <fabiofelgueirass> did it
[19:32] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, no output out of that
[19:32] <mash_> hghhhhh
[19:32] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, does it needs to be with sudo?
[19:32] <overclucker> kfizz: here is an example if using inotify via incron: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-inotify-examples-to-replicate-directories/
[19:32] <Edward2> reisio: Oh, sorry, found more. But I'll just give the muted ones. Tone MM, Surround MM, Mic Boost MM, S/PDIF MM, Analog Capture Boost MM, Audigy MM, External Amp MM, Sigmatel 4-speaker stereo MM.
[19:33] <Edward2> Everything else is 100.
[19:33] <CoachJ> can someone please tell me how I can get new versions of software on my 10.04LTS machine
[19:33] <Edward2> Or, at least 50-100.
[19:33] <tornado> Hi
[19:33] <Angablade> Hi
[19:33] <tornado> Hi guys, i have trouble with SLiM: in particular, after i've installed it (and changed the lines in the inittab file) it doesn't allow me with the login (every login fails)
[19:33] <tornado> can anyone help me?
[19:34] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, i did the -> lsmod | grep -i rt2800usb got no output
[19:34] <reisio> Edward2: well go through and unmute some and make sure those aren't the problem (hit TAB for more)
[19:34] <kfizz> Overclucker, thanks. I think that's going to work really well for me.
[19:34] <reisio> Edward2: then give me a yell
[19:34] <reisio> tornado: think slim is dead, no?  Why not use lightdm?
[19:35] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: okay, then run sudo modprobe rt2800usb
[19:35] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: then add rt2800usb to /etc/modules
[19:35] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: then try and connect via the network icon in the panel
[19:35] <hatchetjack> where in ccsm would I go to disable auto hide for the unity launcher?
[19:36] <overclucker> kfizz: yw
[19:37] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, the add rt2800usb to etc/modules can u explain me better please
[19:38] <tornado> reisio: do you think lightdm is better and lighter?
[19:39] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: open a terminal (CTRL+ALT+t), then run sudo nano -w /etc/modules
[19:39] <reisio> tornado: I think it's maintained
[19:40] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, the add rt2800usb to etc/modules can u explain me better please
[19:40] <surfdue> hello!
[19:41] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: open a terminal (CTRL+ALT+t), then run sudo nano -w /etc/modules
[19:41] <reisio> surfdue: hi
[19:41] <surfdue> is ubuntu server 11.10 a good install version?
[19:41] <reisio> surfdue: compared to...?
[19:41] <surfdue> the options i have are 8.04 10.04 11.0x and 11.10
[19:41] <reisio> surfdue: 10.04 is supported a full two years longer than 11.10
[19:41] <surfdue> oh ok
[19:41] <fabiofelgueirass> reision ok now what im editing a file..
[19:42] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: you're adding rt2800usb to it and saving & exiting
[19:42] <surfdue> reisio: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation does this manual apply to 10.04 too
[19:42] <surfdue> reisio: i also have the option of 10.04 and 11.04 what do you think ?
[19:42] <wh1t3> When I want to add something to a playlist somewhere (or basically whenever a file selection dialog pops up) I get the following error: "Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'file'.". Any idea what might cause this/how I can solve it?
[19:42] <surfdue> reisio: im sorry i mean 10.10
[19:43] <reisio> surfdue: it should apply, yes
[19:43] <fabiofelgueirass> resion, so i add rt2800usb before the lp line? and save is that it?
[19:43] <reisio> surfdue: how'd we get onto 10.10?
[19:43] <bingomanatee_> I am having problems in CUPS - ubuntu - web app for "add printer" page says "413 Request Entity TOo Large"
[19:43] <surfdue> reisio: these are the full options 8.04 LTS, 10.04 LTS lucid, 10.10 maverick, 11.04 natty, 11.10 oceiric
[19:43] <surfdue> lol at the name of the natty narwhal.. love it
[19:43] <bingomanatee_> all the help i find online says it has to do with permissions in the /cups direcretorie(s) that I have set to 777
[19:43] <reisio> surfdue: 10.04 is supported longer than any other version available ATM, that's what would make the decision for me
[19:44] <surfdue> reisio: cool. what exactly does rts stand for
[19:44] <reisio> surfdue: LTS? long term support
[19:44] <surfdue> god I miss debian based systems..
[19:44] <reisio> surfdue: the next one isn't for a few more months
[19:44] <surfdue> -.- hate red hat based systems :P
[19:44] <reisio> surfdue: so use Debian :D
[19:44] <Humbedooh> reisio: he obviously wants real/time support :<
[19:44] <reisio> surfdue: don't we all
[19:44] <Humbedooh> rts!
[19:44] <reisio> Humbedooh: uhuh...
[19:44] <tornado> reisio: in archlinux it is downloadable from aur...
[19:44] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: before or after, doesn't matter
[19:44] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: just needs to be listed in that file
[19:44] <surfdue> the problem is most hosting panels require centos
[19:44] <surfdue> well finally im getting away from that..yay
[19:45] <reisio> they all suck anyways
[19:45] <surfdue> Lol this is irrelavant but my friend in germany just told me this over skype "do you know why people from america or poland cant connect to my minecraft server?"
[19:45] <surfdue> lulz..
[19:46] <surfdue> yes -.- I know exactly why.
[19:46] <jsumners> How do I configure lightdm to _not require_ a password for a specific user?
[19:46] <SunTsu> !ot > surfdue
[19:46] <fabiofelgueirass> reisio, ok but now i have the rtl working... i need to unistall it or everitime i place connect in icon it uzed the rtl
[19:46] <fabiofelgueirass> howi change it to uze the new card?
[19:46] <Stormx2> Hey. I've enabled network support for pulseaudio in "paprefs" in order to use MPD, but MPD is complaining that pulseaudio is refusing its connections. Any advice?
[19:47] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: it really shouldn't matter
[19:47] <reisio> fabiofelgueirass: you tried to make a connection?
[19:47] <jsumners> No, I don't want autologin
[19:47] <reisio> jsumners: 'guest' account?
[19:48] <jsumners> Sort of. It's an account for a user that needs things to be as simple as possible
[19:49] <meco> What is the command to show the name of the video card?
[19:49] <reisio> meco: lspci | grep -i vga
[19:49] <meco> ok
[19:49] <slakcphil> lspci -v
[19:49] <Edward2> reisio: Ok, I unmuted the muted turning them into green 00, but no sound (Trying with Banshee Media Player). Only sound I got was from the 6-port card which was a hiss, but that was when I unmuted the mic boost.
[19:50] <slakcphil> that will be a detailed output
[19:50] <excelsior> My laptop spontaneously died on me. I checked the power, full strength, after turning on, I checked the battery, fully charged, it's a Dell Studio 1558, any thoughts?
[19:50] <reisio> Edward2: okay
[19:50] <reisio> Edward2: at the top left of alsamixer, does it mention 'HDA'?
[19:50] <slakcphil> excelsior, did it die? or powerdown
[19:51] <slakcphil> like die as in unplugged from wall taking battery out? or like shutdown -p now
[19:51] <reisio> -p?
[19:52] <Edward2> reisio: No 'HDA' at top left.
[19:52] <reisio> Edward2: what's it say?
[19:52]  * jsumners didn't realize this was the #google_links channel
[19:52] <apollo00> Is it possible to get a gui on ubuntu server?
[19:52] <alexhairyman> like an html frontend?
[19:52] <slakcphil> apollo00 apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment xorg
[19:53] <gregoire_> Hi
[19:53] <Edward2> reisio: Card: SB Audigy 2 [SB0240]; Chip: SigmaTel STAC9721,23.
[19:53] <reisio> apollo00: possible, but I wouldn't advise it
[19:53] <jsumners> But it isn't a link to exactly what I'm asking for. All of the top links are from 2007
[19:53] <jsumners> Ubuntu wasn't using lightdm in 2007
[19:53] <gregoire_> does one of you know something about the ip_forward option
[19:53] <slakcphil> apollo00, that's what i did on a 8.04 server and it gave me a minimal desktop env
[19:54] <slakcphil> maybe do a sudo apt-cache search gnome | grep -i desktop to see
[19:54]  * Humbedooh coughs at the words gnome and minimal
[19:54] <apollo00> thats exactly what im looking to do, a minimal desktop, i dont want all the added stuff
[19:54] <fivedaysahead> ctrl alt F8 to go to second console?
[19:54] <fivedaysahead> maybe try icewm?
[19:55] <fivedaysahead> or want more minimal than that?
[19:55] <slakcphil> Humbedoh, its minimal on a server with 16 GB RAM
[19:55] <reisio> jsumners: User Accounts > set password to 'None' ?
[19:55] <slakcphil> 8 core
[19:55] <fivedaysahead> damn making my old 4 core comp with 3 gb feel old
[19:55] <alexhairyman> Hello, I am trying to help a nonbeliever (windows user) with some problems (go figure) Tried teamviewer (which I used forever ago on windows) and I need a cross platform solution that does not rely on wine
[19:55] <reisio> just a wm should be minimal enough, virtually regardless of which wm
[19:55] <fivedaysahead> so how do i switch virtual consoles ctrl alt f8?
[19:55] <Humbedooh> pfft
[19:55] <spankstar> anyone know how to fix ubuntu install freezing after i select keyboard layout? im installing from usb to a netbook.
[19:56] <reisio> alexhairyman: why do you need that
[19:56] <jsumners> reisio, that has been done for several years already. This machine was just upgraded from Jaunty to Oneiric which forced a change from GDM to lightdm
[19:56] <reisio> spankstar: what'd you pick?
[19:56] <slakcphil> alexhairyman try screenconnect i think it does not
[19:56] <spankstar> ive googled and saw others having the same problem but no solutions were givin
[19:56] <slakcphil> maybe
[19:56] <killfoo> anyone here uses tlp and can give me the gpg pug key for 02D65EFF ? keyservers dont work -.-
[19:56] <fivedaysahead> or you could just initx which is super minimal!
[19:56] <slakcphil> :)
[19:56] <reisio> jsumners: the option isn't there anymore?
[19:56] <spankstar> reisio default usa
[19:56] <fivedaysahead> how do i switch virtual consoles?
[19:56] <spankstar> didnt really pick one just nit next
[19:56] <gregoire_> I tried to use ip_forward setting it to 1 by changing the sysctl.conf and even by the sysctl command but nothing works it's like I had done just nothing even if it written that the value is indeed to 1
[19:57] <reisio> spankstar: mmmm, could maybe try the alternate install image
[19:57] <reisio> spankstar: or try and pick something more specific
[19:58] <slakcphil> gregoire_ are you using it with a program that is already enabling it forwarding the packet twice?
[19:58] <VCoolio> fivedaysahead: ctrl+alt+f1-6, f7 for X
[19:58] <Edward2> spankstar, reisio: I ran into that. We could say I was running ahead of it. When installing, don't do ANYTHING until it says "Ready when you are".
[19:58] <alexhairyman> \msg slakcphil just a question, does it work on mac too?
[19:58] <fivedaysahead> VCoolio how do i go above F12?
[19:59] <alexhairyman> whoops
[19:59] <walden> hey, what programs are useful for editing video on Ubuntu?
[19:59] <reisio> Edward2: heh
[19:59] <fivedaysahead> if say i want to go to F13 for startx 7
[19:59] <slakcphil> alexhairyman, the lspci -v ?
[19:59] <reisio> Edward2: what'd you say, sigmatel something?
[19:59] <VCoolio> fivedaysahead: can't, why would you?
[19:59] <Edward2> reisio: Card: SB Audigy 2 [SB0240]; Chip: SigmaTel STAC9721,23.
[19:59] <walden> i tried editing AVCHD and ran into lots of b-frame problems
[19:59] <Matrixiumn> bye
[19:59] <excelsior> slakcphil: sorry I missed that earlier, it just died spontaneously. It's running Ubuntu 10.10, and had power and the battery in, and the battery was fully charged. It's a Dell Studio 1558.
[19:59] <reisio> alexhairyman: I mean why can't you use Wine & teamviewer
[19:59] <gregoire_> I don't think so, I am just setting this parameter and receiving ip packet from the other pc
[19:59] <VCoolio> fivedaysahead: 6 virtuel consoles is plenty, then one display server, maybe two, that's is, not?
[19:59] <slakcphil> alexhairyman, it should, you could always try lspci -h
[20:00] <slakcphil> or man lspci
[20:00] <excelsior> slakcphil: it came back on, I'm working from it now.
[20:00] <fivedaysahead> VCoolio: it is but is it possible to go above 6 i mean startx can make more than 6 so why would you not be able to access them?
[20:00] <spankstar> Edward2 so i should wait for a bit before choosing next?
[20:01] <VCoolio> fivedaysahead: I guess someone thought of a workaround / possibility, it's linux after all, but I don't know of it
[20:01] <Edward2> spankstar: Yeah, don't click next while it is installing.
[20:01] <spankstar> reisio there is not alt for the netbook ubuntu 10.04
[20:01] <spankstar> that i could find
[20:01] <fivedaysahead> me either been trying to figure it out but i can't there must be away thanks for your helpe VCoolio
[20:01] <slakcphil> excelsior, i would check the power settings and see if it is set to turn off when laptop lid is closed, there could be a short in the lid sensor...
[20:02] <reisio> spankstar: why're you using such an old version...
[20:02] <reisio> Edward2: pastebin lspci -n ?
[20:02] <spankstar> its the only netbook version i could find
[20:02] <spankstar> do you have a link for a newer one?
[20:02] <reisio> spankstar: you don't need a netbook version
[20:03] <reisio> most of the netbook edition ideas were folded into the mainline Ubuntu releases anyways, IIRC
[20:03] <jsumners> reisio, http://en.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-12282011-025802pm.php <-- hasn't been changed in years
[20:03] <reisio> jsumners: it just isn't working any longer?
[20:03] <jsumners> correct
[20:03] <reisio> what fun
[20:03] <spankstar> ive had it on here before and like the way it runs... so i can install ubuntu and then set up the netbook options?
[20:04] <spankstar> i only have a 1gig usb though.
[20:04] <reisio> jsumners: you might try finding its config file, moving it elsewhere, starting from a fresh one and re-setting None
[20:04] <jsumners> It worked prior to the forced switch from GDM
[20:04] <spankstar> isnt the newer release larger than that?
[20:04] <reisio> spankstar: yes it is
[20:04] <reisio> it's going to be hard to get support for such an old release
[20:05] <reisio> spankstar: sorry the _install media_ is not larger than 1GB
[20:05] <excelsior> slakcphil: I'm pretty sure it's not the power setting, it was a hard shut down,
[20:05] <reisio> thought you meant you were installing _to_ 1GB, not _from_
[20:05] <spankstar> samethi ng happens with the newest release of jolicloud too
[20:05] <spankstar> mint installed fine but it runs like shit
[20:05] <pangolin> spankstar: Please mind the language
[20:05] <spankstar> sorry
[20:06] <VCoolio> fivedaysahead: http://tldp.org/FAQ/Linux-FAQ/tips.html#switch-virtual-consoles
[20:06] <Edward2> ha! Nice timing. Half the internet died so I can't connect to a webpage.
[20:06] <reisio> spankstar: I doubt Ubuntu and Mint will run that differently
[20:06] <Toxa_zav_>  Здравствуйте, уважаемые пользователи. Столкнулся с такой проблемой: ноутбук e-machines d620 ( amd 1.6 ghz 874 mb ram videocard ATI x1250 128 mb)  стоит ubuntu 10.4.3 LTS Все обновления стоят.  а ситуация в том, что комп при просмотре видео или если серф в инете браузер тормозит

[20:11] <insectatorious> !ask > MrStudent
[20:11] <Pickleface> reisio: hey, how do I get my graphic card to work properly on ubuntu ?
[20:11] <reisio> insectatorious: what does file ~/Desktop/ubunt*iso say?
[20:11] <reisio> Pickleface: which card?
[20:11] <VCoolio> insectatorious: -t iso9660
[20:11] <fivedaysahead> how does one switch user using bash and login to that account without sudo?
[20:11] <reisio> krysits: if it's a web-based panel, almost anything should be enough
[20:11] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio, can i somwhow set the default card to be uzed when connection wirelles?
[20:11] <reisio> krysits: never heard of that one, though
[20:12] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: I'm not sure you need bother
[20:12] <Pickleface> reisio: erm GTX 520 Nivida
[20:12] <Toxa_zav_> >reisio< Thanks
[20:12] <Pickleface> I dont know how to use ubuntu to check which graphics card I have :X
[20:12] <insectatorious> reisio: can't test it as it's on my parents' machine...but thanks..im guessing the result will tell me what I need
[20:12] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio, so i installed the 2800 thing u said now how i start uzng this new card?
[20:12] <insectatorious> VCoolio: which is what you specified im guessing..cheers
[20:13] <reisio> Pickleface: it's not working now?
[20:13] <Ahmuck> how does one get the upside down question mark?
[20:13] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: so i installed the 2800 thing u said now how i start uzng this new card?
[20:13] <Ahmuck> está
[20:13] <ian__> Does anyone know how to fix the WPA bug?
[20:13] <VCoolio> insectatorious: sorry, thought is was a disc, it's -O loop, not -o
[20:13] <Pickleface> reisio: it dosent look right, everything is extremely huge
[20:13] <reisio> insectatorious: ordinarily you shouldn't have to specify -t
[20:13] <reisio> Ahmuck: CTRL+SHIFT+u, bf, ENTER
[20:14] <dionysios> #ubuntu-au
[20:14] <Pickleface> nvidia gt 520 is what I have reisio
[20:14] <reisio> Pickleface: gt 520 or gtx?
[20:14] <Pickleface> GeForce GT 520M - NVIDIA
[20:14] <Pickleface> ^
[20:14] <dionysios> find #ubuntu-au
[20:14] <reisio> Pickleface: okay, that should be supported by the latest nvidia driver
[20:14] <Pickleface> reisio: okay, I get that driver how ?
[20:15] <reisio> Pickleface: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[20:15] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: the problem i have now is how to tell him to stop uzing the rtl and start uzing this new usb card
[20:15] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: why is that a problem?
[20:16] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: can you not connect to the wireless network with the new dongle?
[20:16] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: when i press connect it goes uze the old etl card
[20:16] <fabiofelgueiras> rtl*
[20:16] <Pickleface> reisio: okay, I'm just on the trial version of ubuntu, should I install the whole thing on my computer before doing the drivers thing ?
[20:16] <juan_> sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[20:16] <juan_> windows
[20:16] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: right click and tell it to forget/delete
[20:17] <Pickleface> http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html which one do I download ?
[20:17] <reisio> Pickleface: there's not much point in doing it before installing, unless you are bored or you can't see stuff
[20:17] <reisio> Pickleface: none
[20:17] <chuck122> hi all
[20:17] <reisio> Pickleface: follow the howto I already linked you to
[20:18] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: i dont see how, and if i disconect the inner rtl card in the button of the laptop it dosent alow me to connect
[20:18] <reisio> Pickleface: generally if you're downloading applications from random websites for Linux, you're doing it wrong; use your package manager (or in this case, just the preinstalled configurator)
[20:18] <reisio> chuck122: hi
[20:18] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: what was the other device model?
[20:18] <coventry> Is there a way to manually add essid/password combinations to NetworkManager, so that NetworkManager will bind to those essids when it sees them?
[20:19] <fabiofelgueiras> the other is a rtl8187
[20:19] <fabiofelgueiras> is the one im uzing now
[20:19] <fabiofelgueiras> but it is slow connection
[20:19] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: add it to /etc/modprobe/blacklist, then reboot
[20:21] <Pickleface> reisio: how do I get to system ?
[20:21] <agostino> !list
[20:21] <reisio> Pickleface: system?
[20:21] <agostino> !list
[20:22] <Pickleface> yeah on the instructions it says     *        Go to System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers
[20:22] <NimeshNeema> how to install JDK in ubuntu 11.10 ?
[20:22] <Pickleface> how do I get to system :p
[20:22] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: i have a etc/modeprobe.d is that it?
[20:22] <alien20501> NimeshNeema : depends, but if you download manually you need to link it properly with your app
[20:22] <Stormx2> Hey. I'm running a socket server on a particular port as user X. I can telnet to it fine as user X, but my connection is refused from user Y. What can I do to fix? I didn't have this issue in previous ubuntu versions.
[20:23] <Stormx2> The server never sees the connection from user Y, so i'm assuming it's an internal firewall issue
[20:23] <NimeshNeema> alien20501: i want to set up my system for Android dev.
[20:23] <chuck122> to install the JDK the more simple way is to make an apt-get instal open-jdk
[20:24] <NimeshNeema> chuck122: the command line says unable to locate package
[20:24] <alien20501> nimesh: did you try what chuck122 is saying? it should work also
[20:24] <NimeshNeema> :-(
[20:24] <tjingboem> i want to show you a very small .png and ask if someone knows what program creates such diagrams: http://www.csounds.com/manual/html/GEN13.html
[20:25] <alien20501> try openjdk-6-jre
[20:25] <alien20501> and openjdk-6-jdk
[20:25] <Pickleface> wow im hardly lagging
[20:25] <Pickleface> on windows I would lag so much
[20:25] <Pickleface> :X
[20:25] <coventry> From reading /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian, looks like the answer to my question is "use /etc/network/interfaces".
[20:25] <NimeshNeema> alien20501: kewl it worked
[20:25] <chuck122> NimeshNeema I dont knwo the exact name, the prompt should tell you a list of proposition
[20:26] <AAIBB^> does anyone know how I put ubuntu in energy efficient mode? I went from 10 hrs to 3 hrs battery life :s
[20:26] <NimeshNeema> alien20501:  thanks. BTW it was already installed
[20:26] <alien20501> nimesh: if unsure, you can always run "apt-cache search <PKG_NAME_OR_PART_OF_IT>"
[20:26] <alien20501> good
[20:26] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[20:26] <NimeshNeema> in case i don't know the exact name of the package ?
[20:27] <chuck122> NimeshNeema you can dwl it on the oracle site
[20:27] <alien20501> yeah, or if you just want to browse pkgs available by partial name finding
[20:27] <Duker> Anyone know a way to correct overscan with an intel hd graphics 3000?
[20:27] <NimeshNeema> chuck122: i did that as well
[20:27] <chuck122> NimeshNeema then change make a chmod +x on the file
[20:27] <NimeshNeema> it's a .tar.gz archive
[20:27] <alien20501> nimesh: just uncompress it, using "tar xvfz file.tar.gz"
[20:28] <chuck122> NimeshNeema juste unzip it, in your document folder by instance
[20:28] <hamed> hi how are you i am using xubuntu and i can't add arabic language to write any thing with arabic
[20:28] <jstoone> When "file" command says that my file is a "MPEG v4 system, version 2" is it then a .mp3 or mp4?
[20:29] <alien20501> jstoone: if it's audio only, it's mp3, otherwise if it has video in it it's mp4
[20:29] <alien20501> usually
[20:29] <reisio> jstoone: "MPEG  4"
[20:29] <reisio> jstoone: it says right there in the output
[20:29] <reisio> jstoone: if you want a better idea, try ffmpeg -i file
[20:30] <jstoone> reisio: alien20501: Yea, but I just get confuesed 'cause when I think mp4 I think video+audio, but this is just audio..
[20:30] <NimeshNeema> alien20501: chuck122 thanks
[20:30] <alien20501> np
[20:30] <reisio> jstoone: you can thank Apple for that nonsense
[20:30] <chuck122> NimeshNeema then set the folder of jdk in the JAVA_HOME environnemnt variable, it's with this variable that the program will known how Java is located
[20:31] <NimeshNeema> chuck122: okies
[20:31] <chuck122> NimeshNeema u'r welcome
[20:31] <hamed> hi how can i add another language in xubuntu
[20:31] <jstoone> reisio: aha.. so a mpeg4 can be a solo audio track also. Good to know (:
[20:31] <reisio> "MPEG" covers a lot
[20:31] <reisio> as does MPEG-3, MPEG-2, MPEG-4
[20:31] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: can u please tell me the command to edit the blacklist?
[20:31] <reisio> one part of MPEG-3 is what you know as "mp3"
[20:32] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: sudo nano -w /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[20:32] <jstoone> reisio: alien20501: Thanks a lot! I'll continue googling a bit
[20:32] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: ty
[20:32] <Edward2> reisio: Hi, sorry. Internet was funky and couldn't connect to anything else but chat. Here's pastebin: http://pastebin.com/eUtr2ZuF
[20:32] <jstoone> reisio: and the other part?
[20:32] <reisio> jstoone: actually sorry, one part of MPEG-2 is what you know as "mp3"
[20:32] <tornado369> I installed xorg-xdm but he doesn't recognize my user for login. He only recognizes the "root" user. What can i do?
[20:32] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: is that file supose to be empty?
[20:32] <reisio> jstoone: MPEG-2, layer 3
[20:33] <reisio> jstoone: there are lots of parts, gobs of them
[20:33] <alien20501> actually, since we're on the subject... anyone knows a command that would convert a MP3 and/or flac as CONSTANT bitrate (even if it is VBR) ? I need to convert a bunch of mp3s so it works with a program that expects only CBR and not VBR... been looking around... lame seems to be an option
[20:33] <guntbert> tornado369: what is your system?
[20:33] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: i see blacklist.conf is this the file i need to edit?
[20:33] <alien20501> but is there another one you guys might think of
[20:33] <reisio> jstoone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_Picture_Experts_Group#Standards
[20:33] <tornado369> guntbert: archlinux
[20:33] <reisio> fabiofelgueiras: probably
[20:33] <alien20501> probably need to wrap it with a script or something
[20:33] <alien20501> so cli preferred
[20:34] <guntbert> tornado369: this channel is for ubuntu support only
[20:34] <surfdue> reisio: come to find out they require atleast 10.10 or 11.04 https://github.com/primalmotion/Archipel/wiki/General%3A-Supported-Linux-Distributions
[20:34] <surfdue> erg
[20:35] <surfdue> is it possible to upgrade from 10.04
[20:35] <reisio> surfdue: to what?
[20:35] <surfdue> 11.04
[20:35] <xangua> surfdue: you can ungrade from 10.04 to 10.10
[20:35] <xangua> and then from 10.10 to 11.04 and finally to 11.10 surfdue
[20:36] <surfdue> ah
[20:36] <gdoteof> i have firefox 8; i am trying to use the sun-java6-plugin and it's not working
[20:36] <guntbert> tornado369: but there is #archlinux        on this network
[20:36] <gdoteof> it installs; but about:plugins doesn't show anything
[20:36] <surfdue> ok do you have a link or command?
[20:36] <agostino> !list
[20:36] <gdoteof> also doesn't appear to work in chrome
[20:36] <alexhairyman> sun java is being removed from repositories by oracle in  a little while, better switch to openjdk
[20:36] <gdoteof> i am using ubuntu 11.04
[20:37] <surfdue> found it
[20:37] <alien20501> surfdue : try "update-manager"
[20:38] <Pickleface> crap
[20:38] <Pickleface> I just uninstalled my win7 and installed ubuntu
[20:38] <Pickleface> XD
[20:39] <guntbert> !enter | Pickleface
[20:39] <alien20501> Pickleface: sound to me like something that should have started with : yay!!!
[20:40] <Pickleface> okay, sorry
[20:40] <syst3m> hello, I was just wondering if anyone else is having slow update speeds or download speeds from software center?
[20:40] <surfdue> !8ball | I am hungry.
[20:40] <surfdue> lame -.-
[20:40] <snoeman> how do I change a ssh session using remote desktop viewer from cli to gui?
[20:40] <Pickleface> lol I hope I dont regret it, so far I am liking it :)
[20:40] <alien20501> syst3m: yep... happens sometimes
[20:41] <Edward2> reisio: You still there?
[20:41] <MahaVishnu> snoeman{} something like export DISPLAY=:0.0 then start an x server
[20:41] <alexhairyman> syst3m: I use apt-get for 90% of my stuff
[20:41] <gdoteof> i just don't get it.  every tutorial says to simply intall sun-java6-plugin
[20:41] <gdoteof> but it doesn't work for me
[20:41] <tornado369> guntbert: i know it. But on that channel people are like plants.
[20:41] <syst3m> alien20501: thanks. first time ive noticed it.
[20:42] <guntbert> tornado369: but we don't support archlinux here
[20:42] <fabiofelgueiras> hi again reisio
[20:42] <alien20501> syst3m: what you CAN do is switch mirrors in sources.list
[20:42] <snoeman> MahaVishu:where do I put the commands?
[20:42] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: i have blacklisted the 8187 and it is now starting
[20:42] <tornado369> guntbert: but i could install xorg-xdm on ubuntu too, isn't it?
[20:42] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: but the other card not installed
[20:42] <MahaVishnu> snoeman{} are you ssh'ed in to the server you want a gui on ?
[20:43] <snoeman> yes
[20:43] <nixbox> hi guys
[20:43] <snoeman> on cli
[20:43] <gdoteof> then to install it 'manually' it says to look under /opt/java and make a symbolic link to the plugin folder
[20:43] <gdoteof> but there is not an /opt/java!
[20:43] <guntbert> snoeman: if you don't need the complete desktop just start the ssh connection with:     ssh -X  user@host     then start a GUI app from there
[20:43] <MahaVishnu> snoeman{} then put the command there
[20:43] <fabiofelgueiras> reisio: im now in another computer i can talk with u in this computer to solve the problem of installing the other card
[20:43] <syst3m> alien20501: change location in software sources?
[20:43] <snoeman> Where do I put the commands?
[20:44] <alien20501> sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:44] <guntbert> tornado369: it doesn't matter - things are different in both distros
[20:44] <alien20501> before "archive.ubuntu.com" you add your 2 letter country code
[20:44] <alien20501> it does wonders
[20:44] <chuck122> anyone knowns why there are no .bashtc file in Linux mint and where so where set the variable environnement in this distribution?
[20:44] <nixbox> i just installed ubuntu 11.10, my wireless does not work through the network manager, even if i try to enable wireless from the network manager context menu, it gets disabled immediately and i do not get an error. I have an atheros wifi card with ath5k driver, iwconfig shows the wlan0 interface and doing a scan using iwlist wlan0 scan works perfect. Moreover, wicd-manager is able to connect using wireless, but its the network manager
[20:44] <alien20501> for example, ca.archive.ubuntu.com for canada
[20:45] <guntbert> MahaVishnu: no need for {} after a nick
[20:45] <xangua> !mint | chuck122
[20:45] <snoeman> guntbert: Can you be more specific where I put the ssh -X etc. Remote desktop viewer has no place for commands.
[20:45] <syst3m> mine is already ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[20:45] <agostino> !list
[20:45] <alien20501> then try us
[20:46] <fabiofelgueiras> i need help install the wn727n in ubuntu 11.10
[20:46] <alien20501> when the CA servers are loaded
[20:46] <chuck122> ubottu kk I use Ubuntu but I try Mint and I wondering where was this file
[20:46] <chuck122> ubottu don't worry ;)
[20:46] <guntbert> snoeman: on your local machine, in CLI you write     ssh -X <username>@<remoteHost>, then you get a shell again and there you call your GUI program
[20:47] <alien20501> chuck122: did you mean ".bashrc" ?
[20:47] <fivedaysahead> why do my bash scripts run different when i run it with ./ and double clicking the file?
[20:47] <chuck122> alien20501 yes
[20:47] <alien20501> or are u talking about tcsh shell ?
[20:47] <snoeman> ok thanks
[20:47] <Edward2> Is anyone else able to help me with getting sound to work on Ubuntu 11.10?
[20:47] <alien20501> what does echo $SHELL report
[20:48] <ezrafree> hello
[20:48] <fivedaysahead> it tells me /bin/bash
[20:48] <guntbert> !sound | Edward2 did you see
[20:48] <alien20501> it's possible that it's not there, I've seen it before, but it doesn't matter, if you create it, it will be used
[20:48] <ezrafree> is it possible to install the latest thunderbird in ubuntu?
[20:48] <fivedaysahead> which is what i have set
[20:48] <chuck122> alien20501 In Ubuntu distribution I set the export of variable environnement in the end of this file but in Linux Mint this fils doesn't exist.
[20:48] <fivedaysahead> but i have su user2 and then gedit to have it open but if i run it with ./ it won't open but if i double click the file it works?
[20:48] <fivedaysahead> any ideas
[20:48] <alien20501> chuck122: doesn't matter, the binary code for bash should try to use it...
[20:48] <guntbert> chuck122: please don't ask for mint support here
[20:49] <xangua> ezrafree: there is a stable thunderbird PPA
[20:49] <graft> chuck122: if there's no ~/.bashrc it'll use /etc/bash.bashrc or some such
[20:49] <peterrus> hey, booting my ubuntu server 11.10 install seems to hang at 'running init-bottom'. Is there  some way I can check whats going wrong?
[20:49] <snarkster> im trying to recover some deleted images on my daughters ipod, but cant seem to find where it mounted it.. anyone else ever done this before?
[20:49] <chuck122> graft kk sorry
[20:49] <agostino> dvdrip
[20:49] <alien20501> it's easier to just create it imho
[20:49] <peterrus> snarkster: afaik you cant mount the ipod as mass storage
[20:49] <peterrus> might be wrong on that though
[20:49] <peterrus> i probably am
[20:49] <snarkster> oh damn that sucks
[20:50] <peterrus> do a sudo fdisk -u
[20:50] <graft> i think you can mount an ipod
[20:50] <peterrus> or fdisk -l
[20:50] <peterrus> not sure , one of the two
[20:50] <graft> when my brother plugs his in it mounts...
[20:50] <MahaVishnu> you can mount it usually ends up in /media/ipod or some such
[20:50] <snarkster> fdisk -l shows nothing but the internal drives
[20:50] <ezrafree> xangua: is it possible to install the latest version of thunderbird? (version 9)
[20:50] <guntbert> peterrus: you could ask in #ubuntu-server (might get better response)
[20:51] <alien20501> try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone
[20:51] <peterrus> guntbert: tnx
[20:51] <Jahcros> snarkster: how old is the ipod?
[20:51] <MahaVishnu> snarkster~ any error messages in dmesg when plugging it in ?

[20:56] <snarkster> it does bring up shotwell and banshee but these arent what i need.

[20:57] <Doodie> hi, how to ping from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[20:57] <graft> ezrafree: i wouldn't count on it
[20:57] <fabiofelgueiras> i need help install the wn727n in ubuntu 11.10
[20:57]  * Daxter calls ezrafree a baboon-faced toilet.
[20:57] <graft> ezrafree: 11.10 is frankly pretty bad as far as gnome/compiz goes, they deprecated that in favor of unity
[20:58] <graft> ezrafree: i switched to kde4 in 11.10
[20:58] <ezrafree> graft: meh, guess i'll have to remove the apt version of thunderbird and install from their website then
[20:58] <snarkster> really strange how there are no mount points showing anywhere but software works on it
[20:58] <bradleymeck> is there an alternative version of skype that doesnt crash and burn on ubuntu?

[21:03] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: dunno, see what it says in dmesg, see if it reports a wireless adapter in network manager, etc.
[21:03] <fabiofelgueiras> whats dmesg?
[21:03] <MahaVishnu> snarkster~ and you don't have a mount line in /etc/fstab it just auto mounts ?

[21:07] <rhizmoe> how do i know what process handles on-screen notifications?
[21:07] <rhizmoe> 11.10
[21:07] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: yes
[21:07] <reisio> c3ntury: hey
[21:07] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: are you running the 3.0.0 kernel?
[21:07] <trism> rhizmoe: notify-osd if you are using unity
[21:08] <c3ntury> I'm trying to get a classic gnome (with taskbar etc) environment on my Ubuntu Server install... but it's not going well.
[21:08] <c3ntury> http://imgf.tw/800841395.png
[21:08] <c3ntury> Here's what I've got so far.
[21:08] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: dunno
[21:08] <Pickleface> okay I got ubuntu kind of set up
[21:08] <c3ntury> Any ideas what I'm going wrong ? :/ and hey reisio :)
[21:08] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: type "uname -a" in the terminal
[21:08] <Pickleface> reisio: can you link me to the page again to update my drivers for my graphics card ?
[21:09] <fabiofelgueiras> graft : yest it says 3.0.0-12
[21:09] <snarkster> anyone else got any ideas on iOS 5.0.1 device mount points?
[21:09] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: can you pastebin your 'lsmod' output?
[21:09] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: after you plug the card in?
[21:09] <MahaVishnu> snarkster~ do a locate on a filename from the ipod like. locate sally323.jpg
[21:09] <fabiofelgueiras> i notice when i plug it the dmesg says that new highspeed device 6 using ehci_hcd
[21:09] <gaurav> 02:39 *** HelloComputer15 JOIN
[21:10] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: i notice when i plug it the dmesg says that new highspeed device 6 using ehci_hcd
[21:10] <snarkster> hmm
[21:10] <snarkster> ok
[21:10] <worrow> I need some direction please.
[21:10] <graft> worrow: south
[21:10] <MahaVishnu> snarkster~ you have a very strange situation
[21:10] <worrow> I am looking for an operating system by Linux that makes it easy to make my computer a wifi hotspot
[21:10] <xangua> !nounity | c3ntury: install ubuntu-desktop and then the gnome fallback mode
[21:11] <graft> worrow: you can do that with ubuntu easily, just goto network manager and select 'create new wireless network'
[21:11] <c3ntury> ubottu, xangua, apparently ubuntu-desktop is already installed.
[21:11] <c3ntury> Ah, sorry. Wait, why am I talking to a bot?
[21:11] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: im in another pc trying to install it
[21:11] <worrow> graft, I tried doing that with ad-hoc but ad-hoc does not work well
[21:11] <snarkster> hmm running locate only finds whats in my .local folder.
[21:12] <graft> c3ntury: it won't go well, they ditched gnome2... the fallback is basically a kludge
[21:12] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: cant past it but i can tell u some of the output
[21:12] <graft> c3ntury: basically, you can't have a gnome2 experience any more on ubuntu
[21:12] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: it have the rt2800usb and rt2800lib
[21:12] <c3ntury> But unity bloody crashes on my server.. :/
[21:12] <Pickleface> Erm can someone help me, I just installed ubuntu and everything looks really big, I think I need drivers for my graphics card I had the nivida GT 520
[21:13] <worrow> graft, I have peppermint os and have tried the create wireless and it was a no go. My mac computer see's it and then when trying to connect to it, it times out
[21:13] <graft> c3ntury: i switched to kde4, it's pretty nice
[21:13] <phre4k> anyone have an idea how to display the LightDM greeter on the second display instead of the first?
[21:14] <c3ntury> That's an idea graft, how could I go about installing that?
[21:14] <graft> c3ntury: just install kubuntu-desktop
[21:14] <snarkster> found it
[21:14] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: i connected the rtl8187 on the other pc you whant me to paste output of what command?
[21:14] <snarkster> ./.gvfs
[21:14] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: dmesg and lsmod
[21:14] <fabiofelgueiras> ok
[21:14] <c3ntury> graft: Do I just install it and then it'll suddenly work or is there more to it? o.0
[21:14] <worrow> is there a 1 click tool for creating a wireless hotspot?
[21:15] <graft> c3ntury: pretty much... it'll show up as an option when you login, as "KDE plasma desktop" or some such
[21:15] <graft> worrow: peppermint os?
[21:15] <worrow> ya, derivative of ubuntu
[21:15] <c3ntury> When I login? I'm on server bare in mind graft :p
[21:15] <worrow> haven't switched yet
[21:15] <c3ntury> So login would be via SSH.
[21:15] <c3ntury> Or VNC.
[21:15] <graft> worrow: don't they have their own help channel?
[21:16] <snarkster> nope
[21:16] <worrow> need somethine thats easy to share network connection just like a mac does.
[21:16] <snarkster> thats not it
[21:16] <worrow> Yes but not many people there
[21:16] <worrow> Besides I am trying to find another system
[21:16] <graft> worrow: well, in ubuntu it's a snap via network manager, i can't imagine they changed it that much.... i'm not sure what you mean about ad-hoc, it doesn't even give me that option
[21:16] <worrow> i want it to be wired internet--->computer-->Share via wifi
[21:17] <xangua> then pleas ask to your distro support channel, forums, whatever
[21:17] <xangua> worrow:
[21:17] <fivedaysahead> how do you run a program with it automatically switching to it? like gedit & will switch to it automatically how do i keep the focus on the terminal? and have it still open gedit?
[21:17] <graft> c3ntury: wait, why do you care about unity, etc. if you're just sshing in?
[21:17] <c3ntury> graft: I need to run VirtualBox.
[21:17] <c3ntury> And it'd seem you can't do that purely on the terminal within a screen or whatever :/
[21:17] <linxeh> I run virtualbox headly
[21:17] <worrow> do I have tohave my shared connection set a certain way for a mac to see it?
[21:17] <linxeh> headless
[21:18] <c3ntury> linxeh: How on earth do you do that?!
[21:18] <linxeh> and use RDP to connect to it
[21:18] <c3ntury> Can you do it with vmware as well?
[21:18] <linxeh> c3ntury: install the debs from the oracle site
[21:18] <escott> fivedaysahead, that would have to be something in the window manager. you might see if there is a plugin to compiz in ccsm if you are using unity
[21:18] <linxeh> c3ntury: only with vmware esxi
[21:18] <snarkster> nautilus is no help
[21:18] <c3ntury> ESXi is a OS of its own iirc? :p
[21:18] <x3no> can anybody help with this?      http://sebmalod.deviantart.com/art/Dynamic-desktop-UBUNTU-99007631      then: Then, right click on the desktop--> " change background" - > "Add"---> and navigate towards... / Chameleon / Chameleon.xml. , in ubuntu 11.10 it cant open something that IS NOT an image
[21:18] <linxeh> c3ntury: the "full" virtualbox lets you install an addons package that provides headless RDP support
[21:18] <fivedaysahead> well what i really want to do is when i startx -- :1 it will automatically switch to it and i don't want that i want it to run in the background
[21:19] <linxeh> c3ntury: yes, esxi is a full hypervisor that runs as its own OS. VMware server used to do it too iirc, but it is discontinued
[21:19] <c3ntury> linxeh: mmkay. I'll look into it now. :)
[21:19] <c3ntury> I'll need it for VMWare Player then anyway.
[21:19] <worrow> whats the difference between ad-hoc and infastructure wqhen setting up a shared wireless?
[21:19] <c3ntury> Back to square one xD
[21:21] <peterrus> What would be the correct way to disable the framebuffer when booting?
[21:21] <linxeh> worrow: adhoc is peer to peer, and potentialy slower with many devices. infrastructure typically uses a router / access point (or more than one)
[21:22] <escott> fivedaysahead, that wont work. the X server will automatically probe the device. what about xnest?
[21:23] <snarkster> ifuse failed to start AFC service 'com.apple.afc' on the device
[21:23] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: thedmesg is to big dont apear all in the window
[21:24] <c3ntury> graft: Installed, and uh, nothing changed.
[21:24] <c3ntury> I need to edit the xstartup file methinks, but no idea what to put in.
[21:24] <graft> c3ntury: err? i'm not sure exactly how you're starting your session...
[21:25] <c3ntury> vncserver :1 usually graft.
[21:26] <x3no> hello there. "I'm having problems getting a dynamic background for Ubuntu that changes hourly to work. I'm following the instructions on here - http://sebmalod.deviantart.com/art/Dynamic-desktop-UBUNTU-99007631  - can anyone point me in the right direction? " ubuntu 11.10
[21:27] <graft> c3ntury: hmm, dunno much about vncserver any more, sorry
[21:27] <c3ntury> No worries :(
[21:27] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: just paste whatever you can, mate
[21:27] <fivedaysahead> is it possible to be able to run startx -- :1 without it automatically switching to that screen
[21:28] <c3ntury> YES, I've done it!
[21:28] <c3ntury> Just put in the command 'gnome-session-fallback' into the console.
[21:28] <graft> c3ntury: what, running kde?
[21:28] <c3ntury> Nope, gnome-fallback graft.
[21:28] <graft> ah
[21:29] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: ok i pasted it in http://pastebin.com/7eSNcYbvT
[21:30] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: ok i pasted it in http://pastebin.com/eSNcYbvT
[21:30] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: is this one http://pastebin.com/eSNcYbvT
[21:30] <phre4k> How do I change LightDM to show on another display? <--- still unanswered
[21:32] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: looks like it's working...?
[21:32] <escott> phre4k, have you tried adjusting the vt_handoff argument to the kernel?
[21:33] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: is working the rtl8187 but i have a usb pen wireless wn272n what i whant to connect insted of the rtl8187
[21:34] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: so, is this the dmesg output for the rtl8187?
[21:34] <phre4k> escott: what do I do with vt_handoff?
[21:35] <ManDay> I need to know where does the "Remove installation medium and press ENTER" come from?
[21:35] <fabiofelgueiras> is the dmesg of the computer now that is connected with the rtl8187 so i can paste it in pastebin
[21:35] <ManDay> This was a statement, actually.
[21:35] <ManDay> And the question was implied.
[21:35] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: but, did you generate the dmesg output when the wn272n was plugged in, or when the rtl8187 was plugged in?
[21:36] <Melissa>  I want to remove Ubuntu + Grub completely.  How do I remove it + Grub?
[21:37] <Melissa> someone pls help?
[21:37] <graft> Melissa: you need a bootloader... what are you going to replace grub with?
[21:37] <Melissa> graft, W7
[21:37] <graft> Melissa: just install w7, it'll overwrite grub... you can just format the drive ubuntu is on
[21:37] <fivedaysahead> just format your harddrive hwen you install W7
[21:37] <Melissa> graft: where do I get a bootloader?
[21:37] <fivedaysahead> will come with W&
[21:37] <fivedaysahead> w7
[21:38] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: the 2 card are plugued, but the rtl8187 is in uze
[21:38] <Melissa> graft: i still get a grub error
[21:38] <graft> Melissa: windows has its own, it'll install it
[21:38] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: yes, but did you type dmesg before you plugged in the rtl8187 or after?
[21:38] <fivedaysahead> graft how do i kill a virtual console like logout?
[21:38] <fivedaysahead> what's the command?
[21:38] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: and the other i have tryed to install but if i disconect the 8187 it dosent connect uzing the new card
[21:38] <Melissa> graft: does this boot CD overwrite grub and replace with windows MBR?  http://www.supergrubdisk.org/category/download/rescatuxdownloads/
[21:38] <fabiofelgueiras> after
[21:38] <graft> fivedaysahead: exit?
[21:38] <fivedaysahead> well kill
[21:38] <fivedaysahead> say i did startx -- :1 and now want it to die
[21:38] <fivedaysahead> waht do i do?
[21:39] <graft> fivedaysahead: can't you just kill the process?
[21:39] <Melissa> graft: ?
[21:39] <fivedaysahead> that would do it?
[21:39] <graft> Melissa: i don't know... but if you install windows, it should install its own boot loader into the MBR
[21:40] <graft> Melissa: did you install ubuntu after installing windows?
[21:40] <graft> fivedaysahead: yes, that should do it
[21:40] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: and the other i have tryed to install but if i disconect the 8187 it dosent connect uzing the new card i this dmesg is after connecting the rtl
[21:40] <Melissa> graft: yes after
[21:40] <Melissa> graft: so what can I do now?
[21:41] <fivedaysahead> sweet thanks graft
[21:41] <escott> phre4k, doesn't seem to be there anymore. guess they took that option out
[21:41] <graft> Melissa: try google... this is really a windows question. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee851681.aspx
[21:41] <Melissa> ok
[21:41] <phre4k> and how do I get the LightDM greeter on the other display?^^
[21:41] <Melissa> graft: is 64bit Ubuntu any good?
[21:42] <fivedaysahead> switch your cables???
[21:42] <graft> Melissa: depends what you mean by 'any good'
[21:42] <Melissa> graft: if I use Ubuntu 64bit, can I connect it to my Xbox and stream videos like I can in Windows?
[21:42] <Ynodde> Melissa: also depends on what you want to do with it ;)
[21:42] <graft> Melissa: seems unlikely that xbox integration is going to be better in ubuntu than in windows, but i dunno
[21:42] <Melissa> Ynodde: play games, connect to xbox and web browsing
[21:42] <fivedaysahead> maybe a UNDP server might do it
[21:42] <Melissa> graft: but does it work, connecting ubuntu to xbox?
[21:43] <Ynodde> Melissa:Problem is most games are windows only, and will either not run, or run bad on linux
[21:43] <fivedaysahead> xbox doesn't support mkv natively so no easy HD solution
[21:43] <fivedaysahead> it does support wmv
[21:43] <Melissa> graft: I want to record TV on ubuntu and stream the videos to my xbox so I can watch on TV.  Is that possible in Ubuntu?
[21:43] <Ynodde> Melissa: I dont own a Xbox, so i dont know what is used to stream the videos
[21:43] <Melissa> Ynodde: are there any battlefield 3 type games for Ubuntu?
[21:43] <fivedaysahead> you can install xbmc if you have a tv tuner card to record tv
[21:43] <Guest67708> Hey guys!
[21:43] <fivedaysahead> or mythbuntu
[21:43] <MahaVishnu> Melissa~ yes if you use 'ps3 media server' works with 360 also
[21:44] <mausi> anyone willing to help a xubuntu newbee?
[21:44] <fivedaysahead> sure
[21:44] <Ynodde> melissa:mythbuntu would be the easiest solution
[21:44] <fivedaysahead> i have xubuntu
[21:44] <Melissa> fivedaysahead: what do yu mean?
[21:44] <Melissa> !mythubuntu
[21:44] <Guest67708> I'm trying to backup my entire xubuntu system on to an external drive
[21:44] <mausi> cant play divx in xubuntu
[21:44] <Ynodde> melissa:http://www.mythbuntu.org/
[21:44] <Guest67708> so I can install Windows 7 then dual boot xubuntu
[21:44] <fivedaysahead> you should be able
[21:45] <fivedaysahead> i can play back divx and xvid and what not
[21:45] <fivedaysahead> do you have VLC mausi?
[21:45] <Ynodde> maus1: Did you install the xunbuntu-restricted-extras ?
[21:45] <Ynodde> maus1: or the VLC player, these will prbably fix your problems
[21:46] <mausi> didnt install the restricted extras, cause it needs to delete some files
[21:46] <Guest67708> maus1 open a terminal window and type sudo apt-get install xunbuntu-restricted-extras
[21:46] <Ynodde> maus1: delete files like what? i usually only removes what it improves
[21:46] <fivedaysahead> yaa it usually only helps hmmm
[21:46] <fivedaysahead> should ahve installed restricted extras :) maybe try installing that?
[21:47] <Guest67708> sudo apt-get install xunbuntu-restricted-extras
[21:47] <Uncle|Sam> Is there a possibility to block ip spoofing udp packages on ubuntu servers?
[21:47] <go8765> hello.can anybody help me with Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_set_tooltip_text: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed in claws-mail?
[21:47] <mausi> libav codec library and libav utility library will be deleted
[21:48] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Probably using iptables, or maybe even UFW (firewall config tool)
[21:48] <mausi> when i ask xubuntu to install the restricted stuff
[21:48] <Ynodde> maus1: Should not ba a problem, the restricted extras are all codecs and flash support
[21:49] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde i tried iptables but all i know to block is ip adresses and the attacker uses each time another ip :( but i am looking for UFW and try that! thank you
[21:49] <Ynodde> maus1: Alternativly you can install vlc which has all the codecs "built-in"
[21:49] <fivedaysahead> yes try VLC
[21:49] <Ynodde> but you will have to play everything with VLC
[21:49] <Guest67708> terminal window aka right click "open terminal here" then type sudo apt-get install vlc player
[21:50] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: you mean spoofed public adresses
[21:50] <mausi> vlc is not my favourite choice, had some problems with on ubuntu
[21:50] <Guest67708> Guys I need too install back up my data on to an external drive
[21:50] <Guest67708> I'm using xubuntu
[21:50] <airtonix> So i have this system76 serval pro i7 and the fan turns on fullspeed at random times... i'm looking for a way to tone it down without restarting the machine.
[21:50] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: There not much you can do about  it , just make sure all un nessasery deamons are shut down, and ports closed with iptables
[21:50] <Melissa> if I install MythUbuntu, can I then record TV and stream the files to my XBox?
[21:50] <graft> mausi: try mplayer
[21:50] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde i host call of duty server and this servers have a bug to reply on spoofed ip packages to another ip adress. i want to stop that but i cant stop them all :(
[21:51] <fabiofelgueiras> graft: u there?????????????????????
[21:51] <Melissa> fivedaysahead: you can install xbmc if you have a tv tuner card to record tv <-- what do you mean?
[21:51] <rhizmoe> trism: thanks
[21:51] <escott> airtonix, most of that will be controlled with files in /sys. you might want to switch to a more conservative power profile
[21:52] <graft> fabiofelgueiras: yeah, i don't have much for you bud, sorry
[21:52] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: hmmm, all to the COD ip port?
 Melissa~ yes if you use 'ps3 media server' works with 360 also <-- I install Ps3 media server on Ubuntu?
[21:52] <mausi> ok, after installing the restrictetd stuff, i still cant play divx
[21:52] <phre4k> then try installing the VLC player
[21:52] <Ynodde> maus1: Thats weird, did you try different files, to rule out that divx isnt just broken?
[21:52] <airtonix> mausi: did you follow this > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[21:53] <mausi> yes, i also restartet the browser etc.
[21:53] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde the attacker send a status command to the cod server with ip spoofing and the server reply to another server/ip with a complete status report ... :(
[21:54] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Thats crap, you cannot prevent that i am afraid if you run a public server, this is a COD problem, not fixable.
[21:55] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: The problem is that there is no way to determine if a ip packet is spoofed
[21:55] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde there is a inofficial fix for linux but i dont think its working 100%
[21:55] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Is it the same destination server?
[21:56] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Then you could block outgoing traffic to that server
[21:56] <Duker> I can't seem to play video, whenever I try to play any video file I have (tried MPlayer and VLC) my screen just starts flashing
[21:56] <pythonirc101> how do I fix this-- my firefox says: "Your browser reports that it is using Java version 0.0.0. Please visit java.sun.com and install Java Runtime Environment version 1.5 or greater." -- and I would prefer not to install anything from oracle/sun if possible.
[21:56] <ManDay> I need to know where does the "Remove installation medium and press ENTER" come from. Does anyone know?
[21:57] <Ynodde> Duker: Probably bad video driver. What videocard do you have?
[21:57] <wolf8> salut les noobs
[21:57] <wolf8> hi noobs
[21:57] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde i hate your answer that i cannot determinate if a packet is spoofed, and the attack destination is another after about an hour
[21:57] <MahaVishnu> wolf8~ hi noobie
[21:57] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde so UFW is not a solution for my problem?
[21:58] <wolf8> bite
[21:58] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Sorry m8, thats one of the drawbacks of IP4
[21:58] <wolf8> chatte
[21:58] <wolf8> nichon
[21:58] <wolf8> cul
[21:58] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam:Probably not
[21:58] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: did you install the fix already ?
[21:58] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde so i have no chance to block spoofed packets, i just can block too much connections ...
[21:59] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde yes i have, and it tells me every status message and if it is allowed or not
[21:59] <Duker> Ynodde: How can I find what video card I have? I beleive its the intel hd graphics 3000, or w/e is built into this i7
[21:59] <MahaVishnu> Duker~ lspci | grep "VGA"
[21:59] <Duker> MahaVishnu: thanks
[21:59] <pythonirc101> is it safe to enable partner repositories?
[22:00] <Ynodde> Duker:what maravishnu said
[22:00] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde if you are interested the fix for cod4 server can be found here: http://www.fpsadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?p=107462
[22:00] <Uncle|Sam> *inofficial fix
[22:00] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Ill take a quick peek
[22:01] <Ynodde> Uncle|Sam: Did you try the iptables commands they give in the forum?
[22:01] <Uncle|Sam> Ynodde yes and much more :P
[22:02] <Duker> MahaVishnu: ~ lspci | grep "VGA" shows "bash: /home/user: Is a directory
[22:03] <MahaVishnu> Duker~ thats odd...
[22:03] <pythonirc101> anyone can tell me what the correct last command in this session is -- http://www.php-architect.com/blog/2010/10/19/installing-java-plugin-for-firefox-on-ubuntu-10-10-maverick/ -- it doesn't work on my ubuntu
[22:04] <ManDay> I need to know where does the "Remove installation medium and press ENTER" come from. Does anyone know?
[22:05] <TryingTiInstall> how can you troubleshoot an install when you can't get to the virtual console
[22:05] <mausi> dear god, fixed the prob. thx to all of you
[22:05] <Melissa> Mythbuntu doesn't support 64bit, why?
[22:08] <r0sen> hi
[22:08] <r0sen> how can i hide my identd here in irc?
[22:09] <VCoolio> Duker: don't put the ~ in front, start with lspci
[22:10] <reisio> r0sen: /join #freenode, ask for a mask
[22:10] <DJones> !cloak | r0sen
[22:10] <DJones> r0sen: You need the unaffiliated cloak mentioned in ubottu's info
[22:12] <captainjamie> Can anyone point me to a good tutorial for Glade? I'm just starting with it making my first program and I'm trying to get buttons to do stuff when clicked.
[22:16] <arminh> Hey hows everyone doing
[22:17] <arminh> Is anyone running Ubuntu ?
[22:17] <Daekdroom> arminh, sure
[22:17] <arminh> im having a problem
[22:17] <Daekdroom> Ask your question and someone will answer it when they read it
[22:17] <arminh> with my wifi connection
[22:18] <arminh> Ok so i have Ubuntu and windows 7 and when i use Windows 7 my wifi connection is great but when i use ubuntu i only get 2 bars
[22:18] <arminh> how do i fix this
[22:19] <dr_willis> but wireless does work>
[22:19] <dr_willis> ?
[22:19] <escott> arminh, there isnt a standard for what 2 bars vs 4 bars means. if its working then its fine
[22:19] <arminh> it does work when i get really close to my router
[22:19] <arminh> it does work but the connection is ridiculously weak
[22:19] <dr_willis> and your specific wilress card/chipset is what exactly?
[22:20] <dr_willis> is the throughput any slower?  dropped connections?
[22:20] <jeaton> completely off topic, but anyone here with an ipod shuffle 2nd gen, i'm needing an image of the drive copied with dd
[22:21] <arminh> Idk the Specs all i know is that when i am using Windows 7 my connection is great but when i use Ubuntu in the same place it is weakk
[22:21] <mellpatr> I have the error
[22:21] <mellpatr> java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/mellpatr/opt/CA/client/lib/libldap.so: libssl.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[22:21] <mellpatr> but the file exists in  /home/mellpatr/opt/CA/client/lib
[22:21] <mellpatr> anyone have an idea of this error ?
[22:22] <AzoteLogiko> mellpatr, perhaps a problem with permissions and groups?
[22:22] <captainjamie> If anyone answered my question regarding Glade before, I was disconnected, and could they repost? Otherwise I shall await a reply :)
[22:22] <escott> mellpatr, is it a broken link? what does ls -l say
[22:22] <tsousa> is there a bug on rt2500?
[22:23] <dr_willis> arminh:  You should determind your wireless chipset, and check the forums, the bug reporting sites, and perhaps askubuntu.com to see if others can verify issues with the drivers for that chipset and if any known workarounds exist.
[22:23] <compitz> hey guys
[22:23] <mellpatr> AzoteLogiko: i check but dont have any to block...
[22:23] <metaspike> dr_willis, assuming sdc is your ipod dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=~/ipodimage.iso
[22:23] <edbian> compitz, hello
[22:23] <dr_willis> !wireless
[22:23] <tsousa> is there a dev ubuntu channel?
[22:23] <mellpatr> escott: the file isnt a link... im check too
[22:23] <AzoteLogiko> tsousa, try to install the new drivers at http://wireless.kernel.org/
[22:24] <reisio> tsousa: /msg alis list *ubunt*dev*
[22:24] <mellpatr> but my ubuntu is oneiric 64
[22:24] <compitz> im working on a graphics problem, is there a way of showing all that terminal has shown, lets say last month, and im not talking about "history", cause that only whows my entries
[22:24] <mellpatr> and i trying to run the eclipse over 32-bits platform
[22:24] <edbian> compitz, No, that information is not recorded
[22:24] <metaspike> or dd if=/dev/sdc of=/home/myuser/myimage.iso       - to iso the entire drive dunno if that's better or worse thos.
[22:24] <reisio> mellpatr: why's that
[22:24] <edbian> compitz, You can use history to see every command that's been run though
[22:25] <compitz> damnit :-(
[22:25] <edbian> compitz, But there is no record of all the output
[22:25] <reisio> metaspike: for what
[22:25] <escott> compitz, are you looking for your dmesg logs?
[22:25] <metaspike> for dr_willis to iso his ipod
[22:25] <compitz> hm waht do these do escott?
[22:25] <edbian> compitz, well, it's likely all of that output is not necessary to fix your problem
[22:25] <mellpatr> reisio: i need to run the CA SCM Harvest plugin... but i have only 32-bits version..
[22:25] <mellpatr> =(
[22:26] <mellpatr> from CA..
[22:26] <Pici> CA?
[22:26] <escott> compitz, what are you hoping to get from the console? some things are logged in /var/log/*
[22:26] <reisio> metaspike: jeaton you mean?
[22:26] <reisio> oh I see, nm
[22:26] <reisio> dd would be perfect for that
[22:26] <mellpatr> yes.. the harvest plugin is from Computer Associates..
[22:27] <reisio> assume they're the same size
[22:27] <metaspike> ah your right, jeanton. too much traffic in here to keep track :p
[22:27] <mellpatr> Im lost tree days with this problem.. =/
[22:27] <jeaton> metaspike, yeah, I formatted my ipod shuffle which I shouldn't have
[22:28] <Pici> metaspike: Contact your CA support rep?
[22:28] <jeaton> so I was hoping to obtain a image of one so I can copy it onto mine
[22:28] <metaspike> jeaton, well. you might be able to recover the files with testdisk, and reset the device with itunes.
[22:28] <captainjamie> Where can I find support for glade?
[22:29] <Pici> metaspike: sorry, wrong person.
[22:29] <jeaton> metaspike, my problem is though, I don't have access to itunes since I have no boxes with mac or windows on it
[22:29] <Pici> mellpatr: Can CA support not help with this?
[22:30] <AzoteLogiko> mellpatr, have you tried dpkg –force-architecture -i example32bits.deb   ?
[22:30] <metaspike> compitz, what graphics are you running?  lspci | grep VGA - to find out
[22:30] <compitz> well edbian, escott, its a graphics problem, compiz normal and extra window decoration is not working anymore (correctly), and even in "none" (no anmimation) mode i see stripes in videos when they move fast, or when mozilla reloads. These stripes I think are normal, while resizing a vlc or movieplayer with running video (so you can tell what i mean, maybe you see them also)... What i tried to find,  edbian, escott, was sth. what i di
[22:30] <mellpatr> Pici, Unfortunately no
[22:30] <jeaton> i mean, I'm sure I can take it to a friends house and do it off their computer, i was kinda hoping to not go down that route
[22:30] <negueba> hey guys, how can i remove a program and all its dependences?
[22:31] <edbian> compitz, what graphics card do you have?
[22:31] <jeaton> sudo apt-get purge
[22:31] <AzoteLogiko> apt-get purge program
[22:31] <metaspike> dpkg -r <program>  :)
[22:31] <edbian> negueba, you can use deborphan to find packages that were installed as dependencies but are no longer needed
[22:31] <metaspike> lol nah, just use apt-get
[22:31] <mellpatr> hummm.. no, AzoteLogiko.. the libraries have in a distributed folder in the harvest installation
[22:32] <mellpatr> this is not installable...
[22:32] <AzoteLogiko> mmm :(
[22:32] <mellpatr> I have the libssl into /usr/lib32 with another version..
[22:33] <negueba> edbian thanks man
[22:33] <mellpatr> but the stupid plugin dont understand..
[22:33] <edbian> negueba, sure
[22:33] <edbian> compitz, ?
[22:33] <metaspike> mellpatr, how many bits is your system
[22:33] <mellpatr> ill try to link the files from lib32 to folder required from plugin, AzoteLogiko..
[22:34] <metaspike> 64 right?
[22:34] <piotrj80> hey
[22:34] <mellpatr> 64 bits metaspike
[22:34] <compitz>  edbian, escott, metaspike .... i cant find more in log or synaptic history. I already tried reinsatlling standard n96 nvidia driver, with and w/o restart. some blogs said i was suppossed to reinstall compiz/compiz-gnome. didnt have an effect. im running 10.4 lucid with an old nvidia geforce 4 mx 440, NVIDIA Driver Version 96.43.17
[22:34] <edbian> compitz, let's try the open source driver.   sounds good?
[22:35] <compitz> sry, 96.43
[22:35] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspik sry was typing long description
[22:35] <edbian> compitz, sure :)
 absolutely
[22:36] <compitz> well i remeber i tried that out once in 9.04. 10.4 didnt have any problems, anything was perfectly fine, edbian, escott, metaspike, until i updated once from bad source, SAUCE
[22:36] <edbian> negueba, ?
 thanks
[22:36] <edbian> compitz, wanna try the open source driver?
[22:36] <compitz> well i guess i can try once more
[22:36] <edbian> negueba, sure! :)
[22:37] <metaspike> mellpatr, https://support.ca.com/phpdocs/0/255/harvesteclipse/doc/12.0/CA_SCM_Plugin_Eclipse_RelNotes_ENU.pdf  - googles crawler found something about it here... something about sun-jre workarounds? dunno.
[22:37] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, open source is worth a try maybe its better then
[22:37] <edbian> compitz, right now you're trying the one of the closed source drivers. Can you pastebin for me the output of sudo lspci -k ?  paste.ubuntu.com
[22:37] <edbian> compitz, then try this: sudo apt-get install sserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[22:38] <mellpatr> thanks metaspike... the java is ia32-java6-sun packages..
[22:38] <edbian> compitz, oops, I made a typo: the command is.  sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[22:38] <compitz> sudo apt-get install sserver-xorg-video-nouveau, couldnt find package, running lucid distro...
[22:38] <edbian> compitz, I just said, I made a typo
[22:39] <edbian> compitz, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is the correct command
[22:39] <d1g1ta1> how do you grant the samba linux group "users" permissions equal to authenticated users = FC?
[22:39] <edbian> compitz, also, where's my pastebin?
[22:39] <metaspike> compitz, unless you let us know what your running like I asked earlier ala. lspci | grep VGA - i cant really help u :p
[22:39] <edbian> metaspike, He did mention his card
[22:39] <edbian> metaspike, old nvidia geforce 4 mx 440, NVIDIA Driver Version 96.43.17
[22:40] <compitz> xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is already the newest version. edbian, escott, metaspike
[22:40] <compitz> am i running open source by accident? ,edbian, escott, metaspike
[22:40] <edbian> compitz, can you show me the output of sudo lspci -k   ?  put it here: paste.ubuntu.com
[22:40] <edbian> compitz, you have open source installed, I'm not sure if it's running.  pastebin that command and I'll let you know what is happening
[22:40] <mellpatr> ahh.. i read this pdf before metaspike... dont have help with 64-bits system...

[22:41] <edbian> compitz,  reading...
[22:41] <escott> compitz, afraid i don't know much about nvidia. can you take my name out of your responses
[22:41] <metaspike> compriz, very good. try this:  sudo apt-get install nvidia-96  - or better yet  sudo aptitude install nvidia-96  <if you have it>
[22:42] <metaspike> compitz, ^
[22:42] <edbian> compitz, open a terminal, run sudo lspci -k   copy and paste the output onto this website: paste.ubuntu.com  click paste, give me the link to the page it goes too

[22:42] <edbian> compitz, allright :)
[22:43] <compitz> thx edbian
[22:43] <edbian> compitz, nouveau is installed but you're using 'nvidia' which is the closed source one
[22:43] <negueba> edbian am i doing it right now?
[22:43] <edbian>  negueba yes
[22:43] <edbian> compitz, (they're both installed)
[22:44] <negueba> edbian thanks so
[22:44] <compitz> maybe this duality is the abnormality cause the problem, edbian, escott, metaspike
[22:44] <metaspike> yeah... Kernel modules: nvidia-96, nvidiafb, rivafb, nouveau .... eh,  nvidia-96 -and- nouveau?
[22:45] <pe-mo> Hey folks, I need help please
[22:45] <pe-mo> :D
[22:45] <compitz> maybe then remove the open source, man this must have installed itsself out of the blue with this damn ppa,. remove?
[22:45] <owenll> !ask | pe-mo
[22:46] <compitz> sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau? edbian, escott, metaspike?
[22:46] <metaspike> compitz - well its your own fault for using ppa's to handle system components. yes. remove one or the other and remove the ppa as well.
[22:46] <atengesda> !patience
[22:46] <metaspike> tsk tsk :)
[22:46] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, already removed bad ppa
[22:47] <mellpatr> metaspike, AzoteLogiko, Pici: i put the path on LD_LIBRARY_PATH at my eclipse startup script and its work
[22:47] <metaspike> compitz, go aptitude?
[22:47] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, ihva elearned sth. that day:)
[22:47] <compitz> yepp, edbian, escott, metaspike
[22:47] <Lyon> Hey
[22:47] <pe-mo> Found someone in ubuntu-de thanks ^
[22:47] <compitz> hey Lyon
[22:47] <Lyon> Anyone available to help with some screen resolution issues?
[22:47] <metaspike> compitz, sudo aptitude dist-upgrade  ... should remove the cruft form the ppa then?
[22:48] <Lyon> hey compitz
[22:48] <metaspike> Lyon, i use xrandr to switch resolutions. whats wrong?
[22:48] <compitz> well, edbian, escott, metaspike, i dont want to use newer than 10.4, dont like 'em
[22:48] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, ppa is already remove from config
[22:48] <barracuda> negueba test
[22:48] <Crusader1D> :)
[22:48] <Lyon> I need to increased the resolution on my ubuntu server
[22:48] <MonkeyDust> compitz  10.04 won't be supported for much longer
[22:49] <metaspike> compitz... we heard u the first time v_v  - sudo aptitude full-upgrade does what?
[22:49] <Crusader1D> Anyone using Xubuntu here?
[22:49] <Lyon> I have uncommented GRUB_GFXMODE=1440x900 but it's still not taking it?
[22:49] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, mONKEYdUST, ubunut 11.10 will be supp. for the same time 10.4 is...
[22:49] <metaspike> Lyon, do you see your desired resolution with -xrandr- in terminal?
[22:49] <smw> !anyone | Crusader1D
[22:50] <compitz> sudo aptitude full-upgrade does what? why, metaspike?
[22:50] <Lyon> metaspike: when i type that in, it comes back with command not found
[22:50] <negueba> Crusader1D what's the matter?
[22:50] <edbian> compitz, I'm back
[22:51] <metaspike> lol okok.. IF you have aptitude, compitz, it should remove out of repo packages. fixin your messy situation.
[22:51] <escott> Lyon, why do you want a higher resolution for you ttys?
[22:51] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, im gonna try remove open source driver, hold on
[22:51] <Lyon> escott: ttys?
[22:51] <edbian> compitz, that won't make a difference
[22:51] <Lyon> what's that?*
[22:52] <edbian> compitz, it's installed, you're not using it, if you uninstall it you still won't be using it
[22:52] <compitz> hmm, its worth a try , isnt it edbian?
[22:52] <edbian> compitz, I do not think so
[22:52] <Crusader1D> xfce-look.org seems to be down all the time lately... it has all kinds of themes for Xubuntu, anyone know why or know of an alternative?
[22:52] <escott> Lyon, why don't you just use ssh from a gui system instead of trying to use the tty on the server
[22:52] <metaspike> Lyon, xrandr is a part of x11-xserver-utils - or maybe try lxrandr if it's in the repo
[22:52] <compitz> hm
[22:52] <wilson_> join ##igenous
[22:52] <edbian> compitz, I think you should try to remove the proprietary driver, then you'll be using the open source driver and you can see if it is working better
[22:53] <compitz> everythiong i can do for now, sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau, edbian, escott, metaspike
[22:53] <escott> metaspike, he doesnt have xrandr because he isnt running X this is a guiless server evidently
[22:53] <metaspike> haha oh
[22:53] <edbian> compitz, no, don't do that, that removes the open source driver
[22:53] <edbian> compitz, sudo apt-get purge nvidia-96
[22:54] <compitz> edbian , thats also worth a try, i tried it withou the n96nvidia driver, bfore, thogh
[22:54] <Gentoo64> Lyon, what video card is it btw?
[22:54] <Gentoo64> nvidia?
[22:54] <edbian> compitz, try it again for my sake?
[22:54] <Lyon> Gentoo64: it's in vmware fusion
[22:54] <compitz> compitz, sudo purge nvidia-96? edbian?
[22:55] <callaghan> Hi again, why can't I create an EFI boot partition under 11.10 32bit but under 11.10 64bit it works? It is not avalaible in the "use as" dropdown list...
[22:55] <Gentoo64> Lyon, not sure then, if you've tried manually editing the res then not much else afaik you can do
[22:55] <edbian> compitz, are you kidding?  I'm not typing it again, it's like 10 lines up
[22:55] <Lyon> Gentoo64: okay thank you :)
[22:55] <compitz> why apt-get? ihave it installed
[22:55] <escott> Lyon, you need to install whatever the vmware guest stuff is, but why not run it "headless" and ssh into. if its just a server you dont need the display
[22:55] <metaspike> Lyon, in that case. terminal resolution is determined by the kernel. you can use vga=795 (for instance) as a kernel switch in ie grub, and probably use a kernel which supports your <in this case, emulated> video card with a console framebuffer.
[22:55] <Pickleface> how do I get the latest drivers for my graphic card?
[22:55] <compitz> i got purge installed, edbian
[22:55] <dr_willis> Pickleface:  depends on the card.
[22:55] <edbian> compitz, to uninstall a package you run : sudo apt-get purge <package>
[22:55] <Lyon> escott: that's what i plan to do instead
[22:56] <Lyon> metaspike: thank you for your help!
[22:56] <Lyon> :)
[22:56] <Lyon> Thanks guys!
[22:56] <metaspike> np
[22:56] <compitz> hm ok, edbian , thx, that why i couldnt purde these out
[22:56] <edbian> compitz, ummm, sure....

[22:58] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike, everything else went well i guess
[22:58] <metaspike> callaghan, if you - apt-cache search efi - and look at some of the packages. efilinux, grub-efi ... the installer probably requires one of them, and im guessing that package was dropped in 11.04 <probably some bug>
[22:58] <edbian> compitz, it was removed?

[22:59] <edbian> compitz, restart
[22:59] <metaspike> compitz, just warnings. after process is complete, reboot. welcome to libre graphics land xD
[22:59] <edbian> compitz, remove those folders if you want:  sudo rm -r /usr/lib/nvidia-96/
[23:00] <callaghan> metaspike: it's 11.10 in both cases, the 32bit version does not show it, the 64bit version does... kinda strange. Anyhow, I will try to install the packages you suggested and see if it works, thank you
[23:00] <compitz> edbian, escott, metaspike compiz, i mean normal or extra window decoration dont work for now, ill be back after reboot
[23:00] <metaspike> callaghan, fyi im only guessing. good luck >_<
[23:00] <edbian> compitz, yes, they may work after a reboot
[23:00] <compitz> ok, edbain
[23:00] <Mandi> boa noite
[23:01] <compitz> edbian, im removing then rebooting, thx
[23:01] <edbian> compitz, sure
[23:02] <jonhy> hi
[23:02] <Pickleface> dr_willis: sorry got d/c'd
[23:03] <Pickleface> dr_willis:  what was the last thing u said?
[23:03] <JWColeman> I have a dell mini-1010 and I've been trying to get my mic to work for quite some time, I'm using alsamixer on lubuntu, my sound card is alc269 and lubuntu recognizes it, my sound works fine, I've checked my mixer settings twice, not sure what to do
[23:05] <gry> I just removed gdm and installed lightdm. Is http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1424370 normal?
[23:05] <metaspike> JWColeman, in alsamixer, did you try <tab> select a capture interface then activate it with <enter> ? maybe install and try alsamixergui instead
[23:06] <Um_cara_qualquer> hellow ^^... how can I permanently insert subtitles in a movie?
[23:06] <[deXter]> hi all, I have a laptop with an nVidia card running the open drivers. Connected an external monitor to it, and it works. Any ideas how to turn off the laptop monitor and drive only the external one?
[23:06] <JWColeman> metaspike, I did go to the capture tab (with f4 i think) but I wasn't aware of activating anything, i made sure all my levels were up anyways, let me grab my mini and check this
[23:07] <metaspike> gry, it just looks like some leftover remote gdm login stuff, it shouldnt cause any problems.
[23:07] <Stormx2> hey. using the ubuntu classic desktop. There's no volume control in my panels, and gnome-volume-control-applet seems to have been removed from the repositories. I need it in order to make my keyboard volume keys work. Any suggestions?
[23:07] <gry> metaspike: where can I see that it would actually try to start lightdm? I thought it should be in these files but it's not
[23:07] <metaspike> JWColeman, it's a bit funky, you need to select a capture device for a channel then activate that channel.
[23:07] <clear`> with the latest ubuntu 11.10 updates, anyone else notice their fonts changed?
[23:08] <clear`> my fonts look fuzzy now
[23:08] <metaspike> gry, to select bootup entries i use rcconf
[23:08] <str3l0k> hi guys i've just set a new resolution, but everytime i restart it disappears
[23:09] <str3l0k> it goes back to the previous resolution, so how can i make it permanent?
[23:09] <metaspike> clear`, if its a compiz thing you can configure font antialaising with ccsm
[23:09] <[deXter]> hi guys i've just set a new resolution, but it's out of range. How do I restore it? Isn't there like a 15 second timer or something?
[23:09] <urlin2u> str3l0k, what desktop?
[23:09] <JWColeman> metaspike: perhaps that is what's wrong,  I've also messed with the alsa-base.conf to be set to the basic model, how can I be sure this is correct, seeing as there is no listing for my model in alsa-configuration.conf
[23:10] <str3l0k> dexter restart your computer
[23:10] <str3l0k> xubntu urlin2u
[23:11] <clear`> metaspike: not compiz
[23:11] <metaspike> JWColeman, to begin with I would trust in the default settings. prehaps sudo aptitude --purge reinstall alsa-base to get the defaults back.
[23:11] <clear`> i think its a gnome-shell update
[23:11] <escott> [deXter], if you used the gui it should revert after a few seconds
[23:11] <str3l0k> yeah yeah but what about me
[23:11] <[deXter]> escott: I used the GUI, I changed the resolution, clicked on apply.. waited 15 secs but it didnt revert
[23:11] <[deXter]> str3l0k: yep, restarted and it works now thanks
[23:12] <metaspike> str3l0k, lol what?! lol.. you could jimmy a xrandr -s <number>   into .xsession, but its not really ideal.
[23:12] <str3l0k> dexter now we need to figure out how to make it permanent
[23:12] <JWColeman> metaspike: I know exactly what I changed, so it will be easy to reset to the default settings, I'll make sure I do that before I trust the gentoo wiki for the mini 1010, is it a possibility that my issue is skype, and not actually a ubuntu issue?
[23:13] <JWColeman> metaspike: and if so how can I test my mic without using an application like skype?
[23:13] <Um_cara_qualquer> does anybody knows how can I permanently insert subtitles in movies?
[23:13] <str3l0k> Metaspike you mean debian.com_paste?
[23:13] <metaspike> JWColeman, umm... you could try recording something with aucadity, sox, mhwaveedit or any other thing
[23:14] <dr_willis> Um_cara_qualquer:  ffmpeg, or mencoder can do that
[23:15] <Um_cara_qualquer> dr_willis, thx x) but I'm not that expert yet... can u tell me the entire code to do that?
[23:16] <dr_willis> Um_cara_qualquer:  nope.. i know its mentioned in the ffmpeg, and mencoder faq's if i rember correctly
[23:16] <VCoolio> Um_cara_qualquer: use avidemux if you like gui
[23:16] <JWColeman> metaspike: I'll give this thing another go after dinner, thanks for the tips
[23:16] <Um_cara_qualquer> VCoolio, thx
[23:17] <AzoteLogiko> Um_cara_qualquer, also search for "gnome-subtitles"
[23:17] <AzoteLogiko> in the software center
[23:17] <Um_cara_qualquer> hmm ok
[23:18] <Stepnjump> Hi, in Windows, my mouse had a cool feature. I could hold on the left button for a few seconds and then I could move a file without having to keep holding down the mouse button. Whenever i was over a folder, I could just click once and the file would move. Anyone know if there is a way to do this in Ubuntu please?
[23:18] <Stormx2> Volume keys in GNOME 2 no longer work. What should I do?
[23:19] <metaspike> ze mouse in the house has louse and will not do as I tell it! yaaaaaah!
[23:19] <meerkats> what is swap?
[23:19] <dr_willis> !swap
[23:21] <gry> metaspike: I rebooted, no display manager started at all. I tried to start it manually using a tty but it kept starting itself while something kept killing it, so I just rebooted and used tty to install gdm again.  What can you suggest to actually switch to lightdm successfully?
[23:22] <dr_willis> 'somthing kept killing it' would most likely be 'it kept crashing'
[23:22] <metaspike> gry, I cant really. I use xdm for features and slim for lightweight setups.
