[06:45] <MODspartan> so i dont think thats a problem for me hah
[06:45] <dangergrrl> i haven't seen a floppy drive in years
[06:45] <MODspartan> i got a whole bunch
[06:46] <YankDownUnder> I transformed a hard drive to a floppy drive this morning (hehehehhehehe - the beauty of oxy-acetylene torches!)
[06:46] <PseudoGou> "Transformed"?
[06:47] <YankDownUnder> It *was* an SATA laptop hard drive...
[06:47] <pythonirc101> if i have two gigabit ports, can i dedicate one to a virtual machine. Has someone here done this?
[06:47] <iceroot> pythonirc101: sure
[06:47] <pythonirc101> iceroot: how does one do this?
[06:48] <iceroot> pythonirc101: depending what you are using, kvm, xen, vbox, vmware
[06:48] <dangergrrl> carefully?
[06:48] <pythonirc101> vobx
[06:48] <pythonirc101> I wouldnt even mind running apache on one ethernet port and everything else on the other in the same os, instead of virtualizing
[06:48] <iceroot> pythonirc101: just use a brdiged network and use eth1 for this. for further informations see #vbox
[06:49] <PseudoGou> albertolempira: What happens if you type "dpkg --remove frostwire"?
[06:50] <albertolempira> PseudoGou, dpkg: warning: there's no installed package matching frostwire
[06:52] <Karhuton> is it correct that by default all locale env variables are en_US and only lc_messages is en_US.UTF-8 ?
[06:52] <Karhuton> (natty narwhal)
[06:52] <Dracofodder> I was trying to fix a "fuzzy" sound while listening to music, and I totally wrecked my sound (was trying to compile latest Realtek driver)  what is the easiest way to get back to having at least some sound again?  I've gone through and checked reinstall for all the alsa packages I had showing as installed. but that doesnt seem to work.
[06:53] <PseudoGou> albertolempira: Download the .deb manually from the repository for the OLD version you deleted, dpkg -i packagename, and then uninstall it properly
[06:53] <Dracofodder> I am still on Ubuntu 10.10
[06:53] <PseudoGou> So get the i386 version
[06:53] <PseudoGou> reinstall it with dpkg
[06:53] <PseudoGou> uninstall with dpkg, and then apt-get install the 64 bit
[06:53] <dangergrrl> Karhuton: looks like it
[06:53] <dangergrrl> no idea why it isn't "C"
[06:53] <iXuta> why does WINE change the start path of terminal, file manager, others? how to fix it?
[06:54] <hmchinh1986> i can't change owner group, Chown -R hmchinh1986 /media/58401577-8ad7-4c07-b644-ae83db2b7927
[06:54] <hmchinh1986> ??
[06:54] <Karhuton> dangergrrl: upgrade or regular fresh install?
[06:54] <Karhuton> (installed with normal english language)
[06:55] <albertolempira> PseudoGou, I finally did it!, it happens that the actual name of the old "package" was frostwire:i386 so I just did dpkg --remove as you told me with "frostwire:i386" and it removed it, then i tried to install it from the ppa and it worked! Thanks a lot for your help!
[06:55] <PseudoGou> albertolempira: You're welcome!!  Good luck and G-D bless!
[06:55] <dangergrrl> Karhuton: fress install
[06:56] <dangergrrl> Karhuton: i could swear P1003.1 says LANG="C" should be default but i was wrong 10 minutes ago, so...
[06:57] <albertolempira> PseudoGou, you too!
[06:57] <MoMo> how do i connect my wifi and wired network at the same time?  i want to forward the traffic from my wired through to my wireless
[06:58] <dangergrrl> you will need to enable routing to do that
[06:58] <Blue1> MoMo: do you have a wireless router?
[06:58] <dangergrrl> think it is a sysctl
[06:59] <Karhuton> dangergrrl: thanks, will overwrite using bashrc then. (this breaks terminals with utf8)
[06:59] <Shaba> Hello can anyone help me to upgrade a wubi 10.10 installation to 11.04?
[06:59] <MoMo> blue1: yes?
[07:01] <Blue1> MoMo: depending on the router, you would connect an ethernet cord from the router to your say desktop, and then use the network manager on your laptop to connect to your network -
[07:01] <PseudoGou> dangergrrl: You're right, it does not come by default embedded in the kernel.  Looks like I'll have to do some guesswork.
[07:01] <MoMo> blue1: -- do you know what i should google for? i'm picking up what your putting down, but not to sure what to google for a tutorial
[07:01] <PseudoGou> dangergrrl: "extract-ikconfig: Cannot find kernel config."
[07:02] <Blue1> MoMo: basic router networking?
[07:03] <Blue1> momo: a good first place, would be the site for the manufacturer of your router - or if you have a manual for that, rtfm
[07:03] <kinesis> when i try to login to my Ubuntu desktop as my primary user it glitches, screen goes black, and X restarts.. bringing me back to the same login screen. I briefly see console messages about something called Pageant. Can anyone explain this behavior? I added a separate account, and it works fine now, but I can't get into my primary account
[07:03] <dangergrrl> MoMo the document  you are loocing for will tell you to either do a sysctl or echo 1> /sys/somepath/enable_routing or similar
[07:03] <Blue1> yes
[07:04] <hmchinh1986>  Operation not permitted , please help me
[07:04] <MoMo> dangergrrl, roger that -- thanks! =D
[07:04] <Blue1> kinesis: I sorta had something like that - has to do with display resolution
[07:04] <dangergrrl> MoMo: sorry i don't remember more details
[07:04] <iXuta> WINE changes it from /home/myname to /home/myname/.wine/drive_c. Where has this path stored?
[07:05] <dangergrrl> but i know routing is disabled by default and you have to enable it
[07:05] <PseudoGou> kinesis: Did this start happening after you installed nVidia drivers?
[07:05] <kinesis> i am not using nvidia
[07:05] <kinesis> i am using an older laptop
[07:05] <kinesis> p3
[07:05] <dangergrrl> you could try 'linux enable routing' to google
[07:05] <PseudoGou> kinesis: There is a thread about this in the forum.  Check there.
[07:05] <Blue1> kinesis: something like this?  http://pkill-9.com/getting-ubuntu-10-04-video-to-work-with-an-intel-82815-chipset/
[07:05] <kinesis> 2Ci had to make a suid shell to become root for now
[07:06] <MoMo> no worries -- just not sure what to google for -- i'll let you know if i have some issues
[07:06] <kinesis> its a pentium III lptop
[07:06] <kinesis> old junker
[07:06] <kinesis> but it works
[07:07] <kinesis> i also found getting wifi to work was a hckjob, i had to mv wpa_supplicant to wpa_supplicant.old
[07:07] <Blue1> kinesis: i used an old compaq deskpro -- about 10 years old
[07:07] <kinesis> it kept trying to spawn it, disconnecting my wireless
[07:07] <dangergrrl> MoMo: i only know because i used an old pentium pro with my dsl modem in dumb mode because i was getting table overflows on the embedded device when using bittorrent, bittorrent is not very nat friendly
[07:07] <MoMo> dangergrrl, -- i'm finding a thing that says to do the following commands brctl addbr br0, brctl addif br0 eth0, brctl addif br0 wlan0
[07:07] <Blue1> kinesis: is that on 10.10 or 11.04?
[07:08] <kinesis> 11.04
[07:08] <Blue1> kinesis: sadly no experience with 11.04
[07:08] <dangergrrl> i hate to be dumb
[07:08] <Blue1> dangergrrl: the only dumb question is the one not asked
[07:08] <dangergrrl> but how do i disable the damn screen lock in ubuntu?
[07:09] <dangergrrl> i turned it off it the power settings
[07:09] <Icornpad2> dangergrrl, try screensaver
[07:09] <Blue1> dangergrrl: System/Preferences/Screensaver
[07:09] <dangergrrl> and unity totally hides wherever i would look to disable it
[07:09] <dangergrrl> i have no System, it's Unity :)
[07:10] <dangergrrl> Blue1: that's where i would think to look too
[07:10] <Blue1> i broke unity off the livecd in 5 min w/o trying - so I never went further
[07:10] <Icornpad2> just winkey and start typing screen..
[07:10] <dangergrrl> i'm glad it's a vm
[07:11] <kinesis> ubuntu has bugs heh
[07:11] <dangergrrl> i would kill my computer if i used unity all the time
[07:11] <kinesis> it runs better than slackware though..
[07:11] <Blue1> kinesis: indeed
[07:11] <kinesis> on this P3
[07:11] <kinesis> it utilizes my graphics hardware
[07:11] <kinesis> but slackware was better all around
[07:12] <Blue1> kinesis: i might switch to debian rsn (real soon now)
[07:12] <kinesis> i am a dedicated Slackware fan
[07:12] <fratzbc> morning! i have removed landscape-client and landscape-common but still see the canonical stats when logging in, how can I remove this (my /etc/motd resets as well when relogging...)
[07:12] <Blue1> kinesis: is that debian or redhat based?
[07:12] <kinesis> slackware is getting better, has a package system now
[07:12] <kinesis> Neither, Slack came out before debian
[07:12] <kinesis> 1995
[07:12] <kinesis> its one of the original distro's
[07:13] <PseudoGou> What does slack use, Yast?
[07:13] <plustax> what is the terminal command to see what harddrives ubuntu can recognize as working or plugged in?
[07:13] <Blue1> kinesis: rpm?
[07:13] <kinesis> it uses .txz
[07:13] <kinesis> www.slackbuilds.org
[07:13] <kinesis> .txz/.tgz and pkginstall
[07:13] <MoMo> my wireless is up through wicd -- but how do i bring up my eth0 on dhcp? ... if i use wicd to connect to wired, it disconnects my wireless
[07:13] <Blue1> kinesis: I have only used SuSE and Ubuntu --
[07:13] <kinesis> i like slack cuz its simple to set up the way you like it
[07:13] <kinesis> more customizable
[07:14] <PseudoGou> I wouldn't trade .deb for anything
[07:14] <Blue1> MoMo: yes that is quite normal - one of the other, but not both (mutally exclusive)
[07:14] <dangergrrl> slackware is a SLS derivative isn't it?
[07:14] <agrundner> plustax: try sudo fdisk -l
[07:14] <PseudoGou> plustax: I imagine fdisk can do that
[07:14] <PseudoGou> fdisk -l didn't do it for me
[07:14] <kinesis> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slackware
[07:14] <PseudoGou> Ah
[07:14] <dangergrrl> kinesis: you know?  my first linux was SLS 1.0
[07:14] <PseudoGou> You have to run fdisk as superuser
[07:14] <YankDownUnder> Slackware is NO derivative. It's the ORIGINAL aside from just "source"
[07:14] <PseudoGou> sudo fdisk -l
[07:14] <kinesis> Slackware is a free and open source Linux-based operating system. It was one of the earliest operating systems to be built on top of the Linux kernel and is the oldest currently being maintained.[1] Slackware was created by Patrick Volkerding of Slackware Linux, Inc. in 1993. The current stable version is 13.37, released on April 27, 2011.
[07:15] <Blue1> kinesis: is the mac os based on bsd?
[07:15] <Icornpad2> plustax, just type mount
[07:15] <PseudoGou> I use Debian derivatives, the package system is unsurpassed by anything else
[07:15] <PseudoGou> Aptitude
[07:15] <MoMo> blue1: hmmm then how do i forward my wired out onto my wireless network?
[07:15] <kinesis> bluebomber: OS X is next step, with some proprietary BSD code no?
[07:15] <PseudoGou> When Debian is ahead, I download Debian (rare), when Ubuntu is ahead, I download Kubuntu
[07:16] <kinesis> as in, it's BSD but not public BSD code.. apple bought it
[07:16] <Icornpad2> plustax, it will show all your mounted devices
[07:16] <Blue1> MoMo: maybe I am not understanding what you are trying to do.  wired and wireless are 2 different animals
[07:16] <kinesis> like BSD/OS or BSDi.. tht was private BSD UNIX
[07:16] <kinesis> proprietary
[07:16] <kinesis> FreeBSD was what Berkeley licensed for GNU
[07:16] <Blue1> kinesis: I had been told it was a bsd derivitive
[07:16] <kinesis> yeah slackware is SLS derivative
[07:17] <dangergrrl> YankDownUnder: wikipedia and slackware both say i am right slackware was based on SLS
[07:17] <kinesis> Yes Mac OS X is proprietary BSD
[07:17] <plustax> thank you Icornpad2
[07:17] <dangergrrl> debian ahead?
[07:17] <kinesis> BErkeley UNIX isn't 100% free. some versions were made GNU or public, some were private
[07:17] <Blue1> kinesis: okay thanks
[07:18] <kinesis> Apple bought a private license
[07:18] <dangergrrl> debian is several years behind current on like every package known :)
[07:18] <syrinx_> #! ftw
[07:18] <Icornpad2> MoMo, just plug your wireless router into your wired router - like me!!
[07:18] <dangergrrl> bsd license says you can make binary only derivatives
[07:18] <PseudoGou> dangergrrl: A while back they were ahead when like Ubuntu was stuck on 9.10 they had a stable release 6.0 with newer packages
[07:18] <dangergrrl> so does MIT license
[07:18] <PseudoGou> dangergrrl: It is rare, but it does happen.
[07:18] <Blue1> kinesis: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9a/Gldt1009.svg
[07:19] <dangergrrl> honestly for my boot os i stick to gentoo derivatives
[07:19] <dangergrrl> but the maemo sdk wants ubuntu
[07:19] <kinesis> LOL
[07:19] <dangergrrl> or debian
[07:19] <kinesis> indows
[07:19] <kinesis> lindows
[07:19] <PseudoGou> Backtrack is Slackware I think
[07:19] <agrundner> PseudoGou: it's ubuntu
[07:19] <PseudoGou> Is it?  Interesting.
[07:20] <Blue1> ahh SuSE is an sls deriv.  didn't know.
[07:20] <PseudoGou> SuSe is german garbage
[07:20] <dangergrrl> SuSE is SLS derived???
[07:20] <dangergrrl> wow
[07:20] <jussi> !ot
[07:20] <Blue1> PseudoGou: I got my teeth on SuSE
[07:20] <kinesis> do they still use sls linux
[07:20] <Blue1> s/got/cut/
[07:20] <PseudoGou> Blue1: What does that mean?
[07:21] <dangergrrl> kinesis: no, SLS has been dead for a decade or more
[07:21] <jussi> Blue1: PseudoGou dangergrrl; please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:21] <Blue1> PseudoGou: my first experience with linux, was SuSE
[07:21] <Blue1> jussi: agree thanks
[07:21] <PseudoGou> jussi: OK
[07:23] <kinesis> so yeah my love for slackware will never die
[07:23] <kinesis> REdhat is good too
[07:23] <kinesis> get my RHCA , etc
[07:25] <elky> kinesis, this seems to be offtopic chatter. #ubuntu-offtopic is a more appropriate place.
[07:28] <Icornpad2> I have to run debian every once in a while, or i feel like i am abandoning my beginning roots.
[07:30] <Dracofodder> how do I re-install my sound ? ubuntu 10.10 was trying to fix a fuzzy sound by installing latest realtex driver and it completely broke everything.
[07:31] <Demorion> hello all
[07:31] <Icornpad2> Dracofodder, what is realtex, is that a type of soundcard driver?
[07:31] <Shaba> hello demonicact
[07:31] <Shaba> sorry Demorion
[07:32] <PseudoGou> Dracofodder: See the sticky Alsa thread on the Ubuntu forums
[07:33] <gh0st> app that cracks .zip passwords. is there one?
[07:34] <YankDownUnder> gh0st, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-crack-zip-files-password.html
[07:34] <Demorion> any one install gnome shell on ubuntu ?
[07:35] <agrundner> Demorion: thinking about doing it?
[07:35] <Jordan_U> !gnome3 | Demorion
[07:36] <agrundner> Demorion: all you need - watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haCHS2LUH9Q
[07:36] <Demorion> ok thx
[07:36] <Demorion> for all
[07:40] <plustax> My friend is having an issue. He'll be on in a moment but ill start us off. His harddrive seems to be working mechanically. Spinning, etc. But Ubuntu or windows wont recognize his drive. I had him fdisk -l and mount and there is no recognition. I eliminated the possibility of a bad IDE cable as well as driver issues in windows. What can we do to get his drive working and recognized?  I've recently installed 11.04 and my volume is really low. This has never happened to me before. Any thoughts?
[07:44] <PseudoGou> Does it show up in the BIOS POST?
[07:44] <plustax> PseudoGou, doesnt show up in the BIOS post
[07:44] <PseudoGou> codeminer: Look for a "PCM" slider and turn it up
[07:45] <Demorion> alsamixer and get up buttons
[07:45] <lapion> Hello I have been trying to to install ubuntu on a hdd containing 3 partitions, one of which contains the installation media
[07:45] <Icornpad2> codeminer, hit the winkey, and start typing sound..  you should see sound as a choice
[07:46] <hmchinh1986> Let me offer sincere thanks I jordan_u, thank you verry much
[07:46] <codeminer> PseudoGou PCM is already at 100%. My volume is usually too loud even at 20% on this laptop.
[07:46] <PseudoGou> The winkey actually does something in Ubuntu?
[07:46] <Jordan_U> hmchinh1986: You're welcome.
[07:46] <PseudoGou> Nothing in Kubuntu
[07:46] <lapion> upon reaching the partitioner the system tells me that I can install as long as I do not make any changes to any partitions , since the partitions are pre-created I go on only to find out the installer still wants to modify the partition
[07:46] <FishFace> plustax: If all else fails, maybe you can check channel ##hardware
[07:47] <Icornpad2> PseudoGou, it brings up zeitguest, or however it is spelled
[07:47] <lapion> what am I to do what am I to do
[07:47] <Icornpad2> kind of like gnome-do
[07:47] <PseudoGou> Icornpad2: It does nothing for me
[07:48] <PseudoGou> Icornpad2: But I use KDE
[07:48] <Icornpad2> In 11.04
[07:48] <codeminer> I read that some people had this issue with another kernel version. They recommended opening alsa-base and adding: options snd-hda-intel model=3stack
[07:48] <PseudoGou> Icornpad2: I got 11.04
[07:48] <agrundner> plustax: have you tried the live cd route to see if it recognizes it?
[07:48] <Icornpad2> ubuntu
[07:48] <Beumac> New to linux...sudo apt-get isn't finding the software I just downloaded.
[07:48] <PseudoGou> Icornpad2: Kubuntu
[07:48] <Jordan_U> lapion: If you use the "toram" kernel parameter then you can unomount the partition containing the installation media and ubiquity should stop complaining (and if you do want to do any partitioning, including wiping out the partition with installation media, you can).
[07:49] <istok> Beumac, did it install once downloaded?
[07:49] <Icornpad2> boo, kubuntu
[07:49] <agrundner> Beumac: double-click it
[07:49] <Beumac> When I double click it, it just opens the archive manager.
[07:49] <agrundner> Beumac: so it's not a .deb?
[07:50] <Corey> Sounds like a tar.gz
[07:50] <Beumac> well
[07:50] <Corey> Beumac: Giant step back.  What software did you just download? :-)
[07:50] <Beumac> I downloaded the .deb .tgz and .rpm
[07:50] <Beumac> Because I wasn't sure which one I should download.
[07:50] <agrundner> Beumac: :D
[07:50] <Demorion> run terminal and go to folder when is this packet and write sudo dpkg -i name..deb
[07:50] <Corey> Beumac: "It's so nice you grabbed it twice?"
[07:50] <Beumac> logmein
[07:50] <plustax> how much is it usually to take a harddrive that a computer wont recognize to a computer shop and have them recover the data?
[07:50] <Corey> Er, thrice.
[07:51] <Corey> plustax: Depends on how hosed the drive is.
[07:51] <lapion> Jordan_U, the partitioner of the installer said I should be able to.
[07:51] <Beumac> Corey,  hah ;p
[07:51] <plustax> it seems to be running mechanically.
[07:51] <plustax> But the computer wont recognize it.
[07:51] <Corey> plustax: In BIOS?
[07:51] <agrundner> Beumac: easiest would be to double-click the .deb
[07:51] <Jordan_U> lapion: What is the exact message you are reffering to from the installer (or, could you post a screenshot)?
[07:52] <agrundner> Beumac: software center should open up for you
[07:52] <Jordan_U> !screenshot | lapion
[07:52] <Beumac> lol agrundner, I use it a lot for work and my phone.
[07:52] <Beumac> which one is the correct one to install with?
[07:52] <plustax> corey wont recognize it in bios
[07:52] <agrundner> Beumac: the one with the .deb extension
[07:52] <Corey> plustax: Oof.
[07:52] <Corey> plustax: How much is your data worth to you? :-)
[07:53] <plustax> well this is for my friend.
[07:53] <plustax> But a ton. Years worth of cubase band project files.
[07:53] <Corey> plustax: How much is the data worth to your friend?
[07:53] <Corey> plustax: Expect roughtly $2K USD.
[07:53] <Corey> Roughly, even.
[07:53] <Corey> Talk to ontrack or some other data recovery specialist.  Computer repair shop can only make it worse at this point.
[07:53] <plustax> holy fuck. he's screwed.
[07:53] <Corey> Firstly, please mind the language.
[07:54] <plustax> eh. sorry.
[07:54] <Corey> plustax: Secondly, if his data was THAT valuable he'd have backed it up.
[07:54] <Icornpad2> plustax, i bet he backs up from now on out
[07:54] <virion> drivesavers will get the data.. but they are insanely expensive
[07:54] <Corey> It's a good thing you've got a robust backup policy in place and can restore from backups though!  A lot of people with insufficient experience and bad administrative habits would not be in such a good position.
[07:54] <plustax> he didnt back up. He's flipping out right now.
[07:54] <Corey> ^ my snarky answer to such situations
[07:54] <Corey> plustax: Then with all due respect, he's learned a very expensive lesson.
[07:54] <Corey> All drives fail, it's just a question of when.
[07:55] <virion> what type of RAID was it?
[07:55] <Corey> virion: No RAID at all it seems.
[07:55] <plustax> dang. He's going to cry when I tell him this.
[07:55] <virion> ouch yeah he's screwed.. drivesavers
[07:55] <PseudoGou> KSnapshot won't run while KDESUDO is running, is there a way around this?
[07:55] <Corey> virion: But RAID isn't a backup.
[07:55] <codeminer> So does anyone know a way I can  have Ubuntu boost my volume? At 100% PCM says the dB Gain evens out to 0.00
[07:55] <virion> of course
[07:55] <Beumac> Crap, internet crapped out! So which install file is the correct one? tgz deb or rpm
[07:55] <plustax> there has GOT to be a way to get this working. It spins and whirrs like a working drive.
[07:55] <Beumac> rpm
[07:55] <Corey> Beumac: deb
[07:56] <virion> but even in a RAID 5 if 2 drives fail if you have the right controller you can get the Failed RAID back online
[07:56] <Corey> Beumac: rpm is great if you're on CentOS, RHEL, or Fedora.
[07:56] <Corey> virion: Yeah, RAID50 here.
[07:56] <virion> LSI controllers are the best for recovering multi drive failures
[07:56] <Corey> virion: But again, all data I *really* care about is staged off to other places.
[07:56] <Beumac> Thanks core_
[07:56] <Beumac> Corey,
[07:56] <virion> also reading the controller logs will tell you which drive failed first.. that way you know the order to reseat
[07:56] <REK_007> How to a I add latest memtest on BURG ? am using ubuntu 11.04
[07:57] <agrundner> Beumac: be sure also that the file is made for your 32 or 64bit processor
[07:57] <PseudoGou> REK_007: Can't u just replace the ISO?
[07:57] <Beumac> Aye, I did =)
[07:57] <REK_007> PseudoGou: How do i do that ?
[07:57] <PseudoGou> REK_007: What is BURG first of all?
[07:57] <virion> corey that is the best way.. daily incremental tape backups offsite
[07:57] <plustax> no idea virion
[07:57] <plustax> windows or linux doesnt recognize the drive but it makes noise and seems to be working fine mechanically.
[07:58] <Corey> virion: Nah, tape is unwieldly, and you have to pay a service to manage it.
[07:58] <REK_007> PseudoGou: its an extended GRUB with logos for the OS
[07:58] <virion> it is unwieldy but it is much cheaper than say an EMC drive
[07:58] <PseudoGou> Cool, I'll hve to check it out
[07:58] <Jordan_U> REK_007: BURG is not supported here, and GRUB2 has theming capabilities (though admitedly not all of the theming features BURG has).
[07:58] <Corey> virion: Right, but this is for my personal gear.
[07:58] <PseudoGou> REK_007: Back to the topic, I imagine memtest is contained in an ISO somewhere
[07:58] <PseudoGou> Check your grub config file for that location
[07:58] <PseudoGou> Let mee see if I can find it
[07:58] <REK_007> ohk
[07:59] <FishFace> plustax: It might be whirring. I'd change the power supply connection. Or the whole power supply if you can. Rare the 12 volt power lead is the only one to go. I'm out of ideas after that.
[07:59] <kLown> Can someone glance at my /etc/fstab and explain to me why the last mount wont auto mount, but it will mount manually?  http://pastebin.com/hWS3nE7L
[07:59] <PseudoGou> REK_007: /boot/memtest86+.bin
[07:59] <plustax> FishFace, okay
[07:59] <REK_007> Jordan_U: I know I just wanted to know how do i update the memtest i will add memtest to it by myself
[07:59] <PseudoGou> So just download the new memtest
[07:59] <PseudoGou> and replace that file with the new one
[07:59] <PseudoGou> Rename it to the exact same name, it should work
[07:59] <PseudoGou> But back it up in case it doesn't
[08:00] <virion> i have a question if anyone can help.. i'm completely new to linux.. have been using kubuntu for the last few months.. during the upgrade to 11.04 my system failed.. decided to just install ubuntu.. working great for the first day.. though listen music player would freeze a lot.. now listen won't even open.. i've removed and reinstalled and it still won't open.. anyone have any advice?
[08:00] <REK_007> PseudoGou: thanks will check it
[08:00] <Corey> virion: Could strace it while opening, see where it dies.
[08:00] <Corey> virion: Probably easier to check the logs though.
[08:00] <virion> how would i do that?
[08:01] <PseudoGou> virion: Maybe you rcomputer is in disrepair
[08:01] <virion> ha
[08:02] <virion> seriously though.. linux has been turning me off.. i've gotten kernal panick too many times, freezing, and a multitude of other issues..
[08:02] <Demorion> im tired
[08:02] <PseudoGou> virion: So go back to Windows XP - this is not meant to be derogatory - but if you're not willing to put a little effort into it, then WinXP is more for you.
[08:02] <virion> i am willing
[08:02] <Demorion> im going to sleep
[08:02] <PseudoGou> Demorion: 'night
[08:02] <virion> it's still been turning me off to it though..
[08:03] <virion> and i'd rather go back to windows HPC server
[08:03] <psycho_oreos> and being vague isn't going to help either
[08:03] <virion> or server 2008 r2
[08:03] <EncRyptO> virion, if u havent put alot of files on it then reinstall it
[08:03] <virion> vague?
[08:03] <lemraish> guys, i've installed fedora, then restored ubuntu grub, but when i run sudo grub-update, it still doesn't see fedora. what do i do in this case?
[08:03] <virion> reinstall isn't going to help me find the problem
[08:03] <EncRyptO> virion, google is your friend
[08:04] <viks> can any body tell how to include slash in sed command.......m trying to copy some path to some other file..but it exclude the slash
[08:04] <virion> and i've used google. sadly when i had kubuntu i would follow threads that said to use certain commands that when i ran them in terminal didn't do anything
[08:04] <psycho_oreos> you pretty much just stated kernel panics without giving any specific information. That's as useful as saying windows crashed on me and I'm sick of it
[08:04] <viks> can any body tell how to include slash in sed command.......m trying to copy some path to some other file..but it exclude the slash
[08:04] <virion> i said other reasons such as programs not launching, system freezing
[08:04] <EncRyptO> check the ubuntu forums
[08:04] <Jordan_U> virion: sed 's#/some/path/#g#'
[08:04] <virion> i got the kernal panick while installing debian
[08:05] <PseudoGou> virion: There's something wrong with your computer
[08:05] <virion> nothing wrong with the system
[08:05] <Jordan_U> virion: Sorry, it's late :) make that: sed 's#/some/path/#/something/else#g'
[08:05] <PseudoGou> virion: How do you know?
[08:05] <EncRyptO> its just the what music player?
[08:05] <psycho_oreos> virion, again.. what programs? or are you just randomly trolling?
[08:05] <lemraish> anybody?
[08:05] <virion> this system has had VMware running fine and server 2008 r2 running fine
[08:05] <virion> i'm not fucking trolling
[08:05] <virion> listen music player... just won't open
[08:06] <Jordan_U> !language | virion
[08:06] <virion> sorry
[08:06] <EncRyptO> virion, try to update it from the command line
[08:06] <viks> can any body tell how to include slash in sed command.......m trying to copy some path to some other file..but it exclude the slash
[08:06] <Jordan_U> viks: sed 's#/some/path/#/something/else#g'
[08:06] <virion> i've removed and reinstalled through command line.. how would i update it?
[08:06] <virion> i don't know much command line in linux
[08:06] <psycho_oreos> have you tried to use other alternative programs if listen music player does not work?
[08:06] <virion> yes.. other programs open..
[08:06] <dr_Willis> remove and reinstall is windows thinking. that wouldent clean out the users configs either.
[08:07] <dr_Willis> if its a user config  issue..
[08:07] <Jordan_U> virion: Can you pastebin the output of "listen" from the terminal?
[08:07] <EncRyptO> sudo apt-get update
[08:07] <virion> how do i run a program through terminal?
[08:07] <virion> what is the command for that/
[08:07] <Jordan_U> !terminal | virion
[08:07] <EncRyptO> just try that update itll update your packages
[08:07] <dr_Willis> type its nam,e virion
[08:07] <Jordan_U> virion: The command to run listen is literally "listen".
[08:07] <virion> alright i've done that
[08:08] <viks> Jordan_U: what exactly the command
[08:08] <lemraish> guys, i've installed fedora, then restored ubuntu grub, but when i run sudo grub-update, it still doesn't see fedora. what do i do in this case? anybody, please?
[08:08] <EncRyptO> sometimes its sudo ./program
[08:08] <psycho_oreos> virion, so you pretty much stereotyped other program(s) not working when its only listen music player program that fails to run. Then kernel panics, what kernel panics? didn't you say it was when it was installing debian? how is debian related to ubuntu?
[08:08] <Jordan_U> viks: The command to run listen is literally "listen".
[08:08] <EncRyptO> ./program is the program to run
[08:08] <Jordan_U> virion: Sorry, I keep getting your nick mixed up with viks' .
[08:08] <jibgilmon> is there anyone here who could help answer a question about tri-booting?
[08:08] <virion> virion@virion:~$ sudo ./listen
[08:08] <virion> [sudo] password for virion:
[08:08] <virion> sudo: ./listen: command not found
[08:08] <virion> virion@virion:~$ ^C
[08:08] <FloodBot1> virion: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:09] <EncRyptO> Jordan_U,
[08:09] <virion> don't flood?
[08:09] <dr_Willis> jibgilmon:  ask the question and see.  the grub2 docs arew worth reading also
[08:09] <EncRyptO> then just listen
[08:09] <psycho_oreos> you pasted more than 3 lines within a few seconds
[08:09] <dr_Willis> its not ./listen   its  listen
[08:09] <EncRyptO> or maby add a capital L
[08:09] <dr_Willis> bash basics.
[08:09] <silvering> hi guys, is it safe to install gnome 3 on ubuntu 9.04 ?
[08:09] <virion> i've done listen as well.. but you won't want me to paste what it says
[08:09] <viks> ./listen
[08:09] <_Ray_> Hi :) Where does one find a "package control file", if I wanted to manually edit it to apply a patch? The file is apparently broken.
[08:09] <Jordan_U> virion: *never* run a command using sudo unless you're absolutely sure that the command is supposed to be run as root. (Just seeing a permissions error is *not* enough to know that).
[08:09] <EncRyptO> silvering, yeah
[08:10] <dr_Willis> !pastebin
[08:10] <Jordan_U> viks: *never* run a command using sudo unless you're absolutely sure that the command is supposed to be run as root. (Just seeing a permissions error is *not* enough to know that).
[08:10] <psycho_oreos> it is _not_ ./listen unless your working directory is exactly the same place where listen binary resides
[08:10] <silvering> EncRyptO and it wont wreck my system ot installed apps?
[08:10] <jibgilmon> Well, I originally had Windows 7 (upgraded from vista), and then I installed ubuntu from wubi. I now want to add xp as a third option, but I didn't do it in order from oldest to newest. Where should I start?
[08:10]  * Jordan_U should go to sleep with all the mistakes he is making...
[08:10] <PseudoGou> Jordan_U: Nonsense.
[08:10] <EncRyptO> virion, no
[08:10] <tdn> Is anyone else using iwlagn driver for wifi? Do you experience bad performance when transferring large amounts of data?
[08:10] <EncRyptO> silvering, no
[08:10] <virion> no what? encrypto?
[08:10] <EncRyptO> sorry wrong perso
[08:11] <npmap> I have one question: WHY does upgrading REMOVE ALL contents of /var/lib/lxc?!?!?!
[08:11] <silvering> EncRyptO one last question, after i install it, will it replace my current gnome 2.26 or they will be installed side by side?
[08:11] <psycho_oreos> !caps| npmap
[08:11] <viks> Jordan_U : my question is , m trying to copy one path to other file but it is not shoing me slash (/) ...like /var/www it is showing me varwww
[08:11] <SmokeyD> hey everyone, is it possible to specify commandline arguments in .desktop files (like in ~/.config/autostart). Like "~/bin/somecommand somearg1 somearg2" on the Exec= line?
[08:11] <npmap> I'm sorry, I just lost a lot of work.
[08:12] <EncRyptO> silvering, are you installing it from the gnome site?
[08:12] <iceroot> SmokeyD: for what?
[08:12] <virion> http://paste.ubuntu.com/612183/
[08:12] <virion> anyways.. that's what happens when i open the program through terminal
[08:12] <psycho_oreos> npmap, probably some applications that needed to be upgraded conflicted with original programs or it could be the way the package is made
[08:12] <silvering> EncRyptO i didnt deside yet, but tell me how and what can i expect :)
[08:13] <SmokeyD> iceroot, I have a script that takes commandline arguments. I want to put two different .desktop files in ~/.config/autostart, where the exec line contains this script, and for each desktop file a different argument
[08:13] <npmap> That package is a piece of junk, imo. It should never-ever-ever-ever delete /var/lib/lxc/*.
[08:13] <EncRyptO> silvering, look for the update at the gnome site and they can tell you more
[08:13] <silvering> EncRyptO thanks for now :)
[08:13] <EncRyptO> silvering, it wont erase your files though
[08:14] <psycho_oreos> npmap, is the fs that /var or /var/lib sitting on ext3?
[08:14] <npmap> It's on ext4.
[08:14] <Jordan_U> virion: Try running this command in the terminal "mv ~/.config/listen/ ~/.config/listen-bak/" then try opening listen again. (That command will rename the directory containing listen's configuration file, causing it to create a new one).
[08:14] <virion> will do
[08:15] <jibgilmon> anyone?
[08:15] <virion> it worked
[08:15] <virion> why did that work?  what command is it?
[08:15] <fusiontorch> is there any way to make ubuntu's password sessions last longer? typing in my password every three minutes is seriously getting old.
[08:15] <silvering> EncRyptO im wondering how to install it side by side with my current gnome from repos
[08:15] <npmap> psycho_oreos: What would you suggest I use for recovery? I never had to recover files until now from an ext*.
[08:16] <virion> jordan.. where is the best place to learn linux from the beginning.. i feel like i pick up pieces without really understanding
[08:16] <_Ray_> Hi :) Where does one find a "package control file", if I wanted to manually edit it to apply a patch? The file is apparently broken.
[08:16] <psycho_oreos> npmap, I was about to suggest testdisk had the filesystem was ext3, but testdisk might support ext4
[08:16] <Refael> celthunder: did you get messages?
[08:16] <Corey> fusiontorch: passwd_timeout in sudoers.
[08:16] <Jordan_U> virion: It worked because listen's configuration file had some type of problem, and as I explained renaming the directory containing listen's configuration will cause listen to create a new configuration directory with default settings.
[08:16] <EncRyptO> silvering, you know the command line? just wondering
[08:17] <virion> that makes sense
[08:17] <psycho_oreos> npmap, rather photorec, not testkdisk
[08:17] <iceroot> _Ray_: in the source-packe  debian/control
[08:17] <thrillonium> hello
[08:17] <npmap> psycho_oreos: How about http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ , extundelete?
[08:17] <thrillonium> some of you that know a good game on linux ubuntu??
[08:18] <Jordan_U> virion: Which means that you have probably lost any settings you changed in listen (though the old configuration file still exists, to get your settings back you'd need to discover what exactly is wrong with it that is causing listen to fail).
[08:18] <psycho_oreos> npmap, I've never tried that tool but you can give it a try I suppose
[08:18] <thegoodcushion> thrillonium: SuperTux
[08:18] <silvering> EncRyptO just the basics.. i tryed to add the repo with 'sudo apt-add-repository ppa:gnome-team/gnome3' but it didnt work, and i think that command is not implemented in that version of ubuntu, but i may be wrong (wondering)
[08:18] <thrillonium> thegoodcushion: i'll try that. ty (:
[08:18] <virion> the settings are no big deal.. but i would like to know what caused them to go wrong so i could avoid that in the future
[08:18] <EncRyptO> sudo apt-get -s install gnome3       try that its a simulation of download not a download
[08:19] <EncRyptO> silvering,  it wont install it but itll run a simulation of the install see if its there
[08:19] <silvering> Couldn't find the package gnome3
[08:20] <fusiontorch> Corey: Thanks.
[08:20] <tripelb> can I "name" a terminal session so that I can tell which is which from the panel??
[08:20] <virion> well thanks for your help jordan.. sorry for the language and breaking the rules from the beginning.. didn't mean to..
[08:20] <EncRyptO> silvering, go to the website gnome.org
[08:20] <EncRyptO> silvering, if its not in the repos
[08:20] <_Ray_> iceroot: What is the "source-packe"?
[08:20] <silvering> EncRyptO my browser dimms when i click on download
[08:21] <silvering> i dunno why
[08:21] <EncRyptO> ubuntu 10.10 has it
[08:21]  * bob3291 waves
[08:21] <_Ray_> (iceroot: The package itself is haskell-platform, currently broken in natty. I couldn't find a .deb of it in my system.)
[08:21] <EncRyptO> silvering, from the site?
[08:21] <silvering> EncRyptO yea
[08:21] <thegoodcushion> is it possible to have both gnome 2 and 3 installed simultaneously?
[08:21] <iceroot> _Ray_: packages.ubuntu.com for the source-package
[08:21] <_Ray_> Ah, ok :) Thanks!
[08:21] <silvering> thegoodcushion exactly, thats my question too ;)
[08:21] <iceroot> _Ray_: or "sudo apt-get source haskell-plattform
[08:22] <EncRyptO> go to the ubuntu software center under applications
[08:22] <silvering> just a sec
[08:22] <EncRyptO> silvering, type in gnome3 ....just a test on the repos in 9.4
[08:22] <thrillonium> thegoodcushion: about supertux....... i don'tthink its a game for me, but ty (:
[08:22] <thegoodcushion> np
[08:22] <_Ray_> iceroot: And then I suppose there's a way to tell apt to use _that_ package file?
[08:23] <EncRyptO> silvering, but does it download from the site....it should
[08:23] <iceroot> _Ray_: dpkg -i localpackage.deb
[08:23] <_Ray_> Awesome :)
[08:23] <iceroot> _Ray_: apt-get is only reading repositorys
[08:23] <_Ray_> Thanks!
[08:23] <silvering> EncRyptO when i click the download button my Opera dimms and almost crashes
[08:23] <Pete_> is there a way to upgrade from 32 bit ubuntu to 64 bit???
[08:23] <ElementCracker> hey any one here know how to configure LIRC or how to use irrecord ?
[08:24] <EncRyptO> are u wireless?
[08:24] <iceroot> Pete_: no
[08:24] <silvering> no, cable
[08:24] <EncRyptO> try to run an update on your OS first
[08:24] <iceroot> Pete_: you have to reinstall to change the architecture
[08:24] <thegoodcushion> Pete_: nope
[08:25] <Pete_> ok may i ask what the difference is between the 2? Is the 64 bit faster?
[08:25] <silvering> EncRyptO i have another problem from yesterday.. i canceled instalation of some software through apt (dont remember what) and after that, whenever i try to install something.. it installed it but give back an error for some ttf dejavu extra shits
[08:25] <Dracofodder> ok, totally wrecked my sound, tried to compile an updated alsa driver, and have just gone through the steps on the ubuntu forum sticky for sound issues.  Still no joy.  I am thinking  re-install of whole system as these steps are difficult at best.  Seriously, there is nothing simpler than re-compiling????
[08:25] <thegoodcushion> Pete_: the big thing is 32-bit can only address 3.2 gig of RAM
[08:26] <Pete_> ahhhhhh ok
[08:27] <iceroot> silvering: 1. watch your language, 2. "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[08:27] <silvering> iceroot thanks and sorry
[08:27] <EncRyptO> then go to the command line to search for the software     sudo find / -iname *softwarename*
[08:28] <silvering> iceroot it gives back the same error with ttf dejavu extra and mplayer included now
[08:29] <npmap> psycho_oreos: It's gone. It's gone for good.
[08:29] <npmap> I just ran it and said it didn't find anything at all.
[08:31] <psycho_oreos> npmap, chances are that it might be overwritten as when the files were set to be deleted the pointers are removed. Though you maybe able to recover it with some file carving utilities
[08:33] <silvering> iceroot
[08:33] <silvering> Setting up ttf-dejavu-extra (2.28-1) ...
[08:33] <silvering> E: /var/lib/defoma/locked exists.
[08:33] <silvering> E: Another defoma process seems running, or you aren't root.
[08:34] <silvering> and then:
[08:34] <silvering> dpkg: error processing ttf-dejavu-extra (--configure):
[08:34] <silvering>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[08:34] <EncRyptO> silvering, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-delete-remove-software-using-apt-get-command/
[08:34] <Dracofodder> is there a way I can force a reinstall of the whole system via synaptic? or do I need to download the dvd and start and install from disk.
[08:34] <silvering> EncRyptO thanks ill check it now
[08:35] <dr_Willis> reinstall every single package? why do you think you need to do that dracofodder?
[08:35] <silvering> EncRyptO it gives back the same error
[08:35] <Dracofodder> dr_Willis: I have reached my witts end on fixing this alsa sound issue, and I know it found the correct hardware and installed the correct drivers when I first created the system
[08:36] <dr_Willis> yu could try purgeing/reinstalling the alsa packages I guess. its also posible oher fix's you have tried have broken things worse.  I rarely have sound issues. so cant advise more
[08:36] <Dracofodder> dr_Willis:  and if the forum sitcky is the best thing around for fixing said soundissues, then I am very broken right now.
[08:37] <dr_Willis> may be better to just do a reinstall.
[08:37] <dr_Willis> not reinstall every package.. a clean install
[08:37] <npmap> psycho_oreos: Thanks, I guess I will just switch to something else.
[08:37] <harovali1> hi , I'd like kernel messages not to display on the console , how can I do that in Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[08:38] <dr_Willis> harovali1:  theres a /etc/sysctrl.conf file i think that can tweak that.
[08:38] <silvering> it says that mplayer is not installes so not removed,  but its installed, i used it yesterday
[08:38] <dr_Willis> i cant double check the filename rignht now
[08:38] <Dracofodder> dr_Willis: thanks. will think about this, and look again with a clear head in the morning. I just realized I've been fighting with this for four hours and am probably not thinking clearly.
[08:39] <Dracofodder> I wil never ever ever try to fix a nagging system problem after 11pm again.
[08:40] <harovali1> dr_Willis: thanks
[08:40] <sara2010> dr_Willis,   hi
[08:40] <EncRyptO> silvering, did you do the search i posted? if not search for the package, first cd out of all directorys, then sudo find / -iname *package*
[08:40] <kissapoika> hello, I really need some help. someone I know has issues with ubuntu and internet connection; they live in area with pretty slow/bad internet, and connecting to anything often time-outs. on updates, on pidgin...etc. is there a way to "bypass" timeouts?
[08:41] <silvering> EncRyptO i dont remember the name of the package
[08:41] <silvering> and i tryed synaptic too
[08:41] <silvering> it gives back this:
[08:41] <silvering> ops.. i closed it
[08:41] <EncRyptO> lol
[08:41] <silvering> well, basicly it says unmet dependencies
[08:41] <sara2010> i have problem with scanner . its not working with sane ..........
[08:41] <j_dalmond> guys, i'm running ubuntu 11.04, installed fedora, restored ubuntu grub, then ran sudo update-grub, but it's doesn't show fedora. any ideas?
[08:41] <silvering> and it will leave mplayer and ttf-dejavu unconfigured
[08:42] <dr_Willis> j_dalmond:  add fedora by hand to the /etc/grub.d/40_custome file (or whaever name it is)
[08:42] <EncRyptO> silvering, did you use the command line to install the package?
[08:43] <silvering> yes.. and i cancel it in the first one second after i press yes
[08:43] <silvering> cause i saw that it will install around 150 mbs
[08:43] <j_dalmond> dr_Willis, thanks so lot. -)
[08:44] <silvering> EncRyptO can i paste you on prv the error?
[08:44] <sara2010> dr_Willis,   i have problem with scanner . its not working with sane ..........
[08:44] <EncRyptO> silvering, if so then go check your bash history.   go to your home directory..     ls -al     then   cat .bash_history
[08:45] <dr_Willis> sara2010:  you did check  the sane homepage to se if its supported?
[08:45] <Gskellig> how exactly does rc.local work, can I just type commands in there and save it or...?
[08:45] <EncRyptO> silvering, that has all your commands including the package names
[08:46] <dr_Willis> Gskellig:  its a script so basically yes.
[08:46] <tsimpson> Gskellig: it's just a shell script that is run after all the other boot-up scripts
[08:46] <EncRyptO> silvering, look for your pkg there
[08:46] <silvering> EncRyptO thanks, just a sec
[08:46] <dr_Willis> make sure commands in rc.local dont 'take over' the shell. run them via command &  if not sure.
[08:47] <j_dalmond> dr_Willis, can i ask one more complicated question?
[08:47] <sara2010> dr_Willis,  let me check there
[08:47] <dr_Willis> go for it.. thats the point of the channel.
[08:47] <j_dalmond> dr_Willis guys, one more question, after a few hours of work in 11.04 i drop out of session and get this - http://en.zimagez.com/zimage/imag001436.php - it's impossible to make screenshot, so i made a pic. is it a kernel panic and if yes, will installing latest vanilla kernel help me?
[08:48] <silvering> EncRyptO im looking at it, but i cant find what im searching
[08:48] <j_dalmond> and laptop is very hot also during this
[08:48] <dr_Willis> try the latest kernel and see 0
[08:48] <EncRyptO> silvering the command is         cat .bash_history
[08:49] <j_dalmond> dr_Willis, thanks. i'll try it.
[08:49] <EncRyptO> silvering, look for the command you did to install it from the command line
[08:49] <silvering> no no, im looking in bash history right now, but the command is not there
[08:49] <EncRyptO> silvering,  then you should remember the package
[08:49] <silvering> every command for install in the bash history was successfull
[08:49] <EncRyptO> ok...but you want the package name right?
[08:49] <silvering> no actually
[08:50] <silvering> i want to fix that mplayer and ttf-dejavu error
[08:50] <Shaba1> Hello once again
[08:50] <silvering> but dont know how
[08:50] <EncRyptO> ok so you know the name
[08:50] <Shaba1> Can anyone reccomended a resource for upgrading wubi
[08:50] <nit-wit> Shaba1, not rcommended
[08:50] <EncRyptO> what you can do if stnd error says its not installed its not installed check
[08:51] <silvering> EncRyptO it says that mplayer is not installed so not removed, but mplayer is installed
[08:51] <silvering> i checked
[08:51] <dr_Willis> how did you install mplayer?
[08:51] <silvering> five minutes ago i watched video clip on mplayer
[08:51] <silvering> with aptitude
[08:51] <dr_Willis> try removing it with aptitude perhaps
[08:52] <silvering> i tryed
[08:52] <silvering> same error every time
[08:52] <silvering> same error in synaptic too
[08:52] <EncRyptO> what the error?
[08:52] <EncRyptO> not installed?
[08:52] <EncRyptO> can you find the package?
[08:52] <dr_Willis> pastebin the exact error messages perhaps.
[08:52] <EncRyptO> now?
[08:53] <EncRyptO> if not then dont worry about it.....because it says not installed
[08:53] <silvering> just a sec
[08:54] <silvering> http://pastebin.com/H902G2FS
[08:55] <silvering> and it gives this thing with ttf-dejavu everytime i install apps with aptitude
[08:55] <Feyisayo> Hello everyone. I have Natty installed alongside Windows on my laptop. Yesterday, while using Natty, I forced down my laptop by holding down the power button. Unfortunately, I now can't boot to Natty. What I see is a Grub commandline. I have tried booting from a live USB but that just hangs after showing the copyright information. Can anyone help me?
[08:55] <EncRyptO> silvering,  sudo find / -iname *mplayer*
[08:56] <silvering> alright, mplayer is no longer installed, i just checked, thats getting weird and weird
[08:56] <sara2010> dr_Willis,   i have send you msg .
[08:56] <dr_Willis> best to talk in channel sara2010
[08:56] <silvering> EncRyptO the find command return only this: /usr/share/mplayer
[08:56] <nit-wit> Feyisayo, does alongside mean a wubi install?
[08:56] <sara2010> 8, 12, 16 bit works all modes. If you can only scan half of the page, use the PS2Dfw2.usb firmware and rename it to PS2Dfw.usb. In that case, you may also need backend 1.0-73 or later.
[08:56] <Feyisayo> nit-wit, yes
[08:57] <sara2010> i did it but its not working
[08:57] <yang_> Excuse me,I'm new to this system,can you give me some advice
[08:57] <nit-wit> Feyisayo, always mention that, so you get the MS menu but text when you choose the ubuntu menu choice
[08:58] <hmchinh1986> what's this key on keyboard: KV_S_YUAN=0x0101 thanks
[08:58] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, load a live ubuntu cd, then connect to net,,, then in the command line run   sudo update-grub
[08:58] <nit-wit> EncRyptO, it is a wubi install.
[08:58] <Feyisayo> nit-wit, Yes I get a menu choice of Windows or Ubuntu. I choose Ubuntu and I get a Grub commandline
[08:59] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, then you'll see on the output...it will list all your OS and update grub
[08:59] <silvering> dr_Willis http://pastebin.com/H902G2FS
[09:00] <EncRyptO> silvering, then that is where your mplayer is go to that directory
[09:00] <dr_Willis> i cant see web sites right now. On my cell phone irc client.
[09:00] <Feyisayo> EncRyptO, my laptop does not have a working CD drive. So what I use is a live USB but I can't seem to boot from it. I just hangs after the copyright information is displayed
[09:00] <nit-wit> Feyisayo, take a look at this thread and post as well, if you need to, thr OP and another wubi guru lurk daily. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198
[09:00] <silvering> EncRyptO dont understand you (my english is not that good), whats the solution?
[09:00] <Feyisayo> nit-wit, I will right away
[09:01] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, get a usb external cd drive or go to another computer to make a bootable usb
[09:01] <nit-wit> Feyisayo, cool for straight help thats the thread and place.
[09:02] <liminal> hello
[09:02] <Feyisayo> EncRyptO, I have a live USB but it won't boot
[09:02] <nit-wit> EncRyptO, so your saying you can fix a wubi?
[09:02] <ghostnik11> hi, wanted to know the what is the best email client on ubuntu to use with gmail that will allow me to see labels and folders that i have already marked in gmail on web browser
[09:02] <dr_Willis> wont boot, or fails to boot to the desktop. You may need to use the nomodeset option to get it working right on some systems
[09:03] <EncRyptO> ok go to unetbootin site and there you can make a bootable usb for any OS
[09:03] <liminal> I have turned off quiet splash for the grub2 bootloader in 11.04  - but I do not still the full text from the bootload there is still a purple screen and any text that does appear is delayed
[09:03] <dr_Willis> pendrivelinux website also has some tools that make bootable usb disks.
[09:03] <lapion> Jordan_U, what was the url to t again ?
[09:03] <dr_Willis> liminal try the 'text' option perhaps?
[09:04]  * bob3291 eats the awesome sauce
[09:05] <ikonia> ?
[09:05] <bob3291> you want some!?
[09:05] <bob3291> :)
[09:05] <lapion> !ubottu pastebin
[09:05] <dr_Willis> Theres no charge for awsome.
[09:06] <bob3291> but for the sauce there is! :P
[09:06] <ikonia> no thanks, I wouldn't mind if we could keep the random comments out of the support channel though please
[09:06] <lapion> !pastebin
[09:07] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, if needed go to this site and uninstall ubuntu then reinstall it because its probally easier for you
[09:07] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wubi
[09:08] <EncRyptO> Its got a tutorial on how to uninstall ubuntu then reinstall.......you got to have ubuntu!!!!!
[09:09] <Feyisayo> EncRyptO, I am trying to avoid that option as I have a lot of stuff on my Ubuntu. I was hoping for a way to fix it.
[09:09] <dr_Willis> when in doubt make backups
[09:11] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, ok then get a live usb cd drive or go to unetbootin and create the live usb.....itll work... i did it before on computer with 3OS
[09:12] <Feyisayo> nit-wit, thanks for the article. It assumes that one can boot from a live CD/USB but I have not been able to do so. I created the live USB with the usb-creator tool that comes with Natty's ISO. After the copyright information, nothing happened
[09:13] <dr_Willis> Feyisayo:  you may still need the nomodeset option. also the usb dreator tool in ubuntu has been a little quirky at times. I tend to use tools at the pendrivcelinux site.
[09:14] <liminal> dr_Willis,  im not aware of a text option
[09:14] <Feyisayo> EncRyptO, maybe I should try creating the live USB using UNetbootin and see if it will boot
[09:15] <Feyisayo> dr_Willis, I'll try that too. Thanks a lot
[09:15] <dr_Willis> replacve 'quiet solash' with 'text' = no plymouth or no gdm starting at bootup
[09:15] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, connect to net with live cd or usb then sudo update-grub     about unetbootin its easy they have instructions and the distros you choose already
[09:15] <Name141> Is VLC about the best "GOM Player" alternative , along with (s)mplayer ?
[09:16] <dr_Willis> Ive neer even heard fof a GOM player.. :)
[09:16] <Feyisayo> EncRyptO, will do. Thank you for your help
[09:16] <liminal> dr_Willis, the grub2 output is text by default.. the quiet splash command just covers it up
[09:16] <liminal> 11.04 is doing somthing funky tho.. try it
[09:16] <lapion> Jordan_U, check out: http://imagebin.org/154767 http://imagebin.org/154768 http://imagebin.org/154769
[09:16] <dr_Willis> and the text option will let it show....
[09:17] <liminal> what is the text option?
[09:17] <dr_Willis> by disablin plymouth totally
[09:17] <liminal> where do you put it.. ive never heard of it
[09:17] <Feyisayo> nit-wit, I'm going to try creating a live USB with another utility (UNetbootin) and see how it goes. Thanks for your help.
[09:17] <dr_Willis> grub kernel option... replace 'quiet splash' with 'text'
[09:17] <lapion> or anyone else interested in problems with installer..
[09:17] <EncRyptO> Feyisayo, ok
[09:18] <Cube``> how do i know which cpu governing software i got?=
[09:18] <liminal> dr_Willis, opkay ill give it a go
[09:18] <Cube``> liminal: no dont replace it, just append text
[09:19] <dr_Willis> keeping splash and text.. is sort of like gibveing oposite options. :)
[09:19] <dr_Willis> edit the grub line at boot time to use 'text' for a one time text only boot. for trouble shooting - is what i often do
[09:20] <lapion> dr_Willis, sometimes it can be handy to use nosplash as well.
[09:21] <lapion> as some systems hang upon loading splash
[09:21] <dr_Willis> text is npsplash+ basically :)  it just stops gdm also
[09:21] <vibhav> HI dr_Willis
[09:22] <Cube``> lapion: gah what does splash do anyways besides adding bloat?
[09:22] <dr_Willis> text = the old style console boot runlevel many other disrtos use.
[09:22] <Shaba1> ok
[09:22] <dr_Willis> we all know that plymouth adds valueable extras to the os.... jut not sure what.. :)
[09:22] <Cube``> how do i know which cpu governing software i got?
[09:23] <dr_Willis> we cant be scareing people with  boot messages :)
[09:23] <Cube``> dr_Willis: yeah i heard that one too, but neither do i know what it supposedly helps ;)
[09:23] <dr_Willis> i always disable plymouth
[09:23] <dr_Willis>  bbl
[09:24] <lapion> Cube``, do you have a pentium 4 or similiarly aged processor ?
[09:24] <Bakerconspiracy> anyone else still sticking with 10.10?
[09:25] <Cube``> lapion: no, modern netbook, asus eee 1000he
[09:25] <Cube``> DrColossus: how do i disable it!
[09:25] <Cube``> just by removing it?
[09:25] <tippenein> i still have 10.10
[09:25] <thunderst> Please help.I am running ubuntu 10.10 alongside windows 7. I am getting two versions of ubuntu when my computer starts.xHow do i remove the old one?
[09:25] <tippenein> that guy is using 10.10 too
[09:26] <Bakerconspiracy> its probably just two kernels thunderst
[09:26] <Bakerconspiracy> haha
[09:26] <Cube``> thunderst: you sure its no the the kernel?
[09:26] <Cube``> yeah
[09:26] <tippenein> get ubuntu tweak
[09:26] <Cube``> Bakerconspiracy: word bro
[09:26] <Bakerconspiracy> don't understand the 'unity' bit yet
[09:26] <liminal> dr_Willis the text command means that the grub loads the text console
[09:26] <ikonia> ubuntu tweak is not supported
[09:26] <liminal> not the gui console.
[09:26] <ikonia> there is no need for ubuntu tweak at all
[09:26] <liminal> FAIL
[09:26] <thunderst> m........ what's a kernel??
[09:26] <liminal> moron.
[09:26] <Bakerconspiracy> lolzzzz
[09:27] <thunderst> :(
[09:27] <tippenein> it's an easy way for people to clean stuff like that if you don't know wtf you're doing
[09:27] <ghostnik11> how do you make thunderbird come up in desktopbar like replace evolution so when you go to mail pic on top bar and select mail you go to thunderbird
[09:27] <Bakerconspiracy> no njot you thuderst
[09:27] <Bakerconspiracy> no I get that
[09:27] <ikonia> liminal: stop that now
[09:27] <ikonia> liminal: do not call names, help people, or don't speak
[09:27] <Bakerconspiracy> I think the simplicity makes things more complicated
[09:27] <ikonia> thunderst: a read on tldp.org as an introduction to Linux may help
[09:27] <liminal> ikonia, fair enbough
[09:28] <Cube``> :D:D:D:D:D:D
[09:28] <ikonia> Cube``: please don't, we don't need that sort of input
[09:29] <thunderst> ikonia: thanks
[09:29] <lapion> Cube``, some atoms do not have clock switching..
[09:29] <deneb> hi. unfortunately when i was blanking a dvd-rw on "brasero", it cut the electricity. Now the dvd-rw disc shows 0 bytes capacity, 0 bytes free :/ how could i solve this issue? thanks!
[09:29] <Bakerconspiracy> sometimes you can ruin a RW disk
[09:29] <Bakerconspiracy> have you tried to erase it again deneb
[09:30] <deneb> Bakerconspiracy: yes but it gives an error...
[09:30] <Bakerconspiracy> I'm not sure if disks have headers
[09:30] <Bakerconspiracy> the same way a HD does
[09:30] <Bakerconspiracy> but if you screwed up a read/write on one of those
[09:30] <Cube``> lapion: well i know i can switch between 1ght, 1,33 or 1,6. how can i change the voltage?
[09:30] <deneb> Bakerconspiracy: even now i think is not mount it at all....although i have inserted into drive
[09:31] <Bakerconspiracy> yea man.
[09:31] <Bakerconspiracy> probably going to have to get another DVD
[09:31] <eristikophiles> huh
[09:31] <Cube``> deneb: you are aware that you#you're talking about 12ct or something?
[09:31] <eristikophiles> now i want to turn off that stupid graphical bootup
[09:31] <eristikophiles> googling tells me to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:31] <eristikophiles> but there's no such file!
[09:32] <Cube``> eristikophiles: /boot/grub/grub.cfg is what you're looking for bra
[09:32] <ShishKabab> I have a lot of e-mail (around 10,000 messages) and because Thunderbird slowed down a lot, I switched to KMail. Now KMail is slowly eating my e-mails (there is still a hint that the e-mail was there, but all data is removed). Is there any program I can for example install on our homeserver that stores my mail in a robust database (like MySQL or PostgreSQL) in a way I can still access it from my mail client?
[09:32] <eristikophiles> ah ok
[09:32] <thunderst> I am having two versions of ubuntu.The new one came after updating.anyway to remove the old one??
[09:32] <Cube``> ShishKabab: emacs
[09:32] <Bakerconspiracy> use evolution with pop3
[09:32] <lapion> Cube``, switch the voltage as far as I know that is relegated to the bios, unless things have really changes and voltages are settable on the fly
[09:32] <deneb> Cube``: what's 12ct?
[09:32] <Bakerconspiracy> deneb 12 cents
[09:33] <Bakerconspiracy> but I'm guessing you don't have easy access to another DVD  do you
[09:33] <nina> heeey
[09:33] <ShishKabab> Cube``: Huh? A text editor?
[09:33] <deneb> Bakerconspiracy: i know :P i have to go to central now to buy another
[09:33] <Cube``> Bakerconspiracy: i was gonna troll him with a link to "money" on wikipedia but you sdcrewed it up :(
[09:33]  * vibhav wants a cookie
[09:33] <Bakerconspiracy> cube'' lol
[09:33] <Cube``> ShishKabab: emacs is an operating system. i dont know where you got the text editor part from

[09:34] <Cube``> eristikophiles: whats what its for
[09:34] <eristikophiles> the file says not to edit it manually
[09:34] <Cube``> ShishKabab: waddabout mutt=?
[09:34] <Cube``> mutt is great shit

[09:37] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> we are sitting on a stoel on school
[09:37] <Bakerconspiracy> thunderst : it is probably just that one DVD
[09:37] <wk> dr_Willis: However, it isn't listed as a service, which is required for openvpn to work, how do i do that?
[09:37] <eristikophiles> Cube``- so it looks like grub.cfg is not to be toyed with. not to mention googling tells me to unset "quiet" and "splash" options.. but .. how?
[09:37] <Cube``> lapion: OMIDOG! its a roman numeral as well as an ancient text editor!

[09:38] <ShishKabab> Cube``: I was hoping for someting for something that would keep my mail on the server in a real DB and that I could acces through IMAP so I can still enjoy the comforts of a windowed program.
[09:38] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> fuck you jij lelijke bosaap
[09:38] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> sukkel
[09:38] <wk> dr_Willis: I can't just "add" something to services?

[09:38] <thunderst> Bakersconspiracy: ..............k
[09:38] <eristikophiles> Cube``- yeah i tend to too but in this case it looks too much like code to want to mess with it much

[09:39] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> jwz man
[09:39] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> hihihihi
[09:39] <eristikophiles> where exactly is that setting? i'll fix it if i can find it
[09:39] <nina> mensen ga wat beters doen
[09:39] <dr_Willis> wk ive never heard of anyone needing to add any service named iptables befor.
[09:39] <vibhav> !language | nina
[09:39] <xxxxxlindaxxxhai> huh i dont understand you, youre englisch xnina
[09:39] <nina> wa ik kan geen engels
[09:39] <wk> dr_Willis: It is installed and up and running, but it seems like openvpn requires it to be run as a service?
[09:39] <lapion> cube I like my editors EviL as in vi vi vi

[09:39] <dr_Willis> !info vigor

[09:39] <Cube``> lapion: i swear by sed to edit my files
[09:40] <eristikophiles> you edit /etc/defaults/grub
[09:40] <wk> dr_Willis: Iptables is running, but whenever I try to start openvpn I get: iptables service not started because of error (SVC_RUN_EXCEPT)
[09:40] <nina> praat ff nederlands dan ik je ook verstaan en meedoen
[09:40] <eristikophiles> and then run grub-update
[09:40] <eristikophiles> and it will autogen that file again with your new settings
[09:40] <lapion> Cube``, I still prefer 666
[09:40] <schnuffle> wk: you ned to add a rule for the openvpn port 1194

[09:40] <FloodBot1> majid651651: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:40] <dr_Willis> wk could be that error message is missleading. I dont do vpns
[09:40] <dr_Willis> !vpn

[09:40] <xxxlindaxxxhai> haaaai
[09:40] <lapion> nina, wat is het probleem
[09:40] <wk> schnuffle: OpenVPN isn't being blocked. The firewall is allowing everything at the moment.
[09:41] <lapion> vi....
[09:41] <Cube``> [3~xxxxlindaxxxhai: you are this far from a ban: |<->|
[09:41] <wk> schnuffle: To me it seems like openvpn won't start because iptables isn't running as a service

[09:42] <lapion> xxxlindaxxxhai, je bent |<->| afstand verwijderd van verbanning van deze channel..
[09:42] <ShishKabab> It's moments like this that make me ashamed of being Dutch....

[09:42] <nina> of wie daan ook
[09:42] <nina> sukkels
[09:42] <ikonia> !de
[09:42] <eristikophiles> there's a line with quiet and splash as options. you delete them leaving empty ""
[09:42] <eristikophiles> and then run sudo update-grub
[09:43] <eristikophiles> and it does so
[09:43] <eristikophiles> :)

[09:43] <DJones> !nl > xxxlindaxxxhai
[09:43] <eristikophiles> huh
[09:43] <eristikophiles> what version you running?
[09:43] <ikonia> xxxlindaxxxhai: this channel is for English language only
[09:43] <ikonia> DJones: thank you
[09:43] <Cube``> 11.04
[09:43] <eristikophiles> hm
[09:43] <eristikophiles> me too
[09:43] <eristikophiles> *shrug*
[09:44] <eristikophiles> are you sure you don't have one?
[09:44] <nina> zeg dan op zn minst wat het onderwerp is
[09:44] <Cube``> im xubuntu thought.
[09:44] <eristikophiles> ooh
[09:44] <eristikophiles> it's /etc/default/grub
[09:44] <Cube``> but i fail to see how this would make any difference
[09:44] <eristikophiles> singular
[09:44] <schnuffle> wk: check http://www.linuxhorizon.ro/openvpn-brief.html
[09:44] <Cube``> ye
[09:44] <Cube``> yeye i figured
[09:44] <Cube``> but its still not there
[09:44] <wk> schnuffle: Thank you.
[09:44] <dr_Willis> Cube``:  its /etc/default  not /etc/defaults
[09:44] <dr_Willis> i think.
[09:44] <nina> haaaalooooo waar gaat het over?
[09:44] <xxxlindaxxxhai> englisch is stom
[09:44] <Cube``> yes thank you dr
[09:44] <eristikophiles> dr_Willis- yeah i just realized and said that
[09:44] <Cube``> i realized that
[09:44] <xxxlindaxxxhai> skkels
[09:45] <schnuffle> wk: mot important activate ip_forward
[09:45] <eristikophiles> that's strange though. not sure what's up with not having one
[09:45] <schnuffle> !nl | nina
[09:45] <majid651651> i m using back track 4
[09:45] <majid651651> to crack some wirless networks
[09:45] <majid651651> is Linux is more power than windows ?
[09:45] <nina> wwaaar kun je die ondersteuning vinden
[09:45] <xxxlindaxxxhai> sukkels
[09:45] <Cube``> eristikophiles: where you from?
[09:46] <dr_Willis> majid651651:  yes.. now do you have a ubuntu related question?
[09:46] <Cube``> maybe it depends on your geographical location
[09:46] <nina> i am from nederland
[09:46] <Gnea> !nl
[09:46] <eristikophiles> i live in NJ
[09:46] <eristikophiles> i've moved around a lot though
[09:46] <wk> schnuffle: How do I do that?
[09:46] <Cube``> majid651651: i crack wireless networks, so i guess im better than you, because wirless networks just arent the thing anymore, barely any network has wirs nowadays
[09:46] <eristikophiles> majid651651- *nix has *way* better memory allocation than windows, for one thing. 'more powerful' .. yeah, it is.
[09:47] <mengu> hi all.
[09:47] <wk> schnuffle: openvpn still won't start though.. Error:  iptables service not started because of error (SVC_RUN_EXCEPT).
[09:47] <eristikophiles> anyway Cube`` i doubt that location matters for this file
[09:47] <mengu> i have done a "du -h" and this is the output. http://pastie.org/private/2aswwabhpopn7xjqwhk9ha is it possible to merge /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb1 ?
[09:47] <mengu> though i really don't know what is filling up the /dev/sda2
[09:47] <Cube``> eristikophiles: i see you fail to see my sarcarm :D
[09:48] <dr_Willis> merge mengu ?
[09:48] <schnuffle> wk: sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward  and to add it permanently edit /etc/yctl.conf and add a line: net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
[09:48] <mengu> dr_Willis: removing /dev/sdb1 and transfering its space to /dev/sda2
[09:48] <tsimpson> "sudo echo" does not work, you need to use tee
[09:49] <xxxlindaxxxhai> waar kan ik nederlandse ubunto vinden
[09:49] <dr_Willis> mengu  you dont mer 2 differnt hard drives
[09:49] <dr_Willis> merge
[09:49] <eristikophiles> Cube``- oh, yeah i guess so. lol
[09:49] <Shaba1> i guess I will just uninstall and then reinstall with 11.04 cd iso and take my chances
[09:50] <eristikophiles> Shaba1- why don't you use the updater?
[09:50] <eristikophiles> kpackagekit should let you do it
[09:50] <eristikophiles> or whatever gnome has
[09:51] <BKTech86> when I return from suspend, I can't start new processes (for example if i try to start chromium it says "Starting Chromium.." and then it just closes
[09:51] <schnuffle> wk: have you read http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#quick already? It' a good starting point
[09:52] <BKTech86> and when I boot up, half the time it does this thing where I have to login at a prompt and wait like a minute for ubuntu to start up .. it's so annoying! please help
[09:52] <wk> schnuffle: Yes, yes I did, opevpn is installed on my server and the adminpanel is working, it's just the VPN service that won't start because of Iptables.
[09:52] <schnuffle> wk: how do you come to that conclusion?
[09:53] <wk> Well, that's what the error message is saying.
[09:53] <schnuffle> wk: paste that error message
[09:53] <wk> Error:  iptables service not started because of error (SVC_RUN_EXCEPT)
[09:53] <BKTech86> nobody knows how to fix these problems?
[09:53] <BKTech86> is natty stable?
[09:53] <ikonia> BKTech86: explain the problem a bit more please
[09:54] <wk> iptables is installed and running, BUT when i try : service iptables start i get  iptables: unrecognized service
[09:54] <eristikophiles> BKTech86- i had some bugs like that when i upgraded too
[09:54] <ikonia> BKTech86: yes, natty is classed as stable
[09:54] <eristikophiles> but they went away
[09:54] <Bakerconspiracy> yea BKTech86
[09:54] <eristikophiles> honestly not sure how. i tinker with the system when it's not working right until it works again. half the time i can't tell you how i did it later.
[09:54] <BKTech86> ikonia: i dont know what else to say.  after i've suspended I turn the computer back on and i can use any programs that are open but i can't start new ones because they just fail to open
[09:54] <Bakerconspiracy> hmm
[09:54] <eristikophiles> actually half the issues i was having went away after i booted into windows then into kubuntu again
[09:54] <schnuffle> wk: did you try: sudo /etc/init.d/iptables restart
[09:55] <ikonia> BKTech86: suspend can be quite buggy in Linux in general
[09:55] <wk>  sudo: /etc/init.d/iptables: command not found
[09:55] <Bakerconspiracy> do programs get put onto some stack in mem when a computer goes into suspend?
[09:55] <Bakerconspiracy> anyone know
[09:55] <Bakerconspiracy> stack frames w/ pid or something
[09:55] <ikonia> BKTech86: they get swapped out to disk
[09:55] <BKTech86> ikonia: it used to work fine on my laptop when i was using 10.04 LTS 32-bit but when i switched to 64-bit it's not working anymore
[09:55] <ikonia> oops
[09:55] <eristikophiles> i don't really use suspend so *shrug*
[09:56] <Bakerconspiracy> into swap
[09:56] <ikonia> Bakerconspiracy: they get swapped out to disk
[09:56] <ikonia> BKTech86: I can understand that
[09:56] <ikonia> Bakerconspiracy: yes
[09:56] <Bakerconspiracy> ikonia do you know what data structure
[09:56] <Bakerconspiracy> just like state id
[09:56] <BKTech86> ikonia: in that case, is it likely it will be functional if i go to natty 32-bit?
[09:57] <ikonia> BKTech86: no promises, suspend depends on many component
[09:57] <BKTech86> ikonia: what about the hanging at bootup?
[09:57] <ikonia> Bakerconspiracy: it's a simple dump file as I recall
[09:57] <ikonia> BKTech86: what hanging at boot
[09:57] <michiduta> My L-Max 5K Serioux USB mouse does not work well with any ubuntu variant installed but works well in any ubuntu variant live
[09:57] <BKTech86> ikonia: instead of going straight into ubuntu it loads up a black screen with prompt asking for login: -- so i login and wait like a minute before ubuntu magically starts
[09:57] <michiduta> What it does is it focuses on whatever control/window/panel I click first and cannot click on anything else without first doing a right-click on the currently focused window/panel/etc
[09:58] <michiduta> Anyone know why?
[09:58] <elfranne> sed 's/WorkedHours=$WorkedHours/WorkedHours=$newWorkedHours/g' $logfile
[09:58] <BKTech86> ikonia: it's at least a full minute
[09:58] <Bakerconspiracy> yo bktech86 when you come back from suspend does it stall up when you open other programs
[09:58] <Bakerconspiracy> or not do anything
[09:58] <ikonia> BKTech86: if you don't login, does it start X on it's own ?
[09:58] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: it stalls, saying Starting [program name]... then just stop
[09:58] <Philix> How do you set the default network interface on ubuntu? like if i want to use eth1 as default instead of eth0?
[09:58] <BKTech86> ikonia: i never waited that long without logging in, I don't know
[09:58] <ikonia> BKTech86: try it
[09:58] <BKTech86> ikonia: i guess it probably would since sometimes it doesnt do that at all
[09:59] <philluminati> Where would one of root's environmental variables getting set? It's the http_proxy variable and I need to unset it by default so I can run the additional drivers gui under gksu
[09:59] <Bakerconspiracy> bktech86 since you are having problems with starting x
[09:59] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: maybe i misunderstood your question.  Yes I noticed sometimes if i keep opening programs after returning from suspend
[09:59] <Bakerconspiracy> i bet its something to do with that
[09:59] <ikonia> BKTech86: check it
[09:59] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: the whole system can freeze
[09:59] <Bakerconspiracy> yea
[10:00] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: so what are you suggesting?
[10:00] <Bakerconspiracy> maybe X is having a bit of trouble loading up
[10:00] <Bakerconspiracy> what is your ram an cpu speed again
[10:00] <Bakerconspiracy> or
[10:00] <Bakerconspiracy> its getting hung up on something
[10:01] <Bakerconspiracy> ikonia is that agreeable ?
[10:01] <Bakerconspiracy> like permissions escalation or something
[10:01] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: its a Toshiba Qosmio x505-885
[10:01] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i5 cpu -- 2g ram i think
[10:02] <Bakerconspiracy> yea says 4 gb ram
[10:02] <Bakerconspiracy> its all new hardware
[10:02] <Bakerconspiracy> one sec
[10:03] <tdn> Is anyone else using iwlagn driver for wifi? Do you experience bad performance when transferring large amounts of data?
[10:03] <ikonia> Bakerconspiracy: I suspect it could be many things, hence why I'd like him to try it without logging in
[10:03] <Wujku> Pomoże ktoś w rejestracji konta?
[10:04] <schnuffle> !pl | Wujku
[10:06] <BKTech86> ikonia: i will try it and report back
[10:06] <BKTech86> ikonia: thank you !
[10:06] <Bakerconspiracy> bktech86
[10:06] <Bakerconspiracy> when you come back
[10:06] <Bakerconspiracy> I want you to look at some logs
[10:07] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i have to read something before i reboot
[10:07] <Bakerconspiracy> for sure
[10:07] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i'll check them now though
[10:07] <Bakerconspiracy> ok
[10:07] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: what logs
[10:08] <Bakerconspiracy> /var/log$ cat /var/log/Xorg.* | egrep -e error
[10:08] <Bakerconspiracy> shit
[10:08] <Bakerconspiracy> I want to see everything that doesnt load properly
[10:08] <Bakerconspiracy> can't figure out how to write it for xorg
[10:08] <Bakerconspiracy> does anyone else know how to write that
[10:09] <Bakerconspiracy> to see what didn't load properly in xorg logs?
[10:09] <llutz> Bakerconspiracy: grep -r EE /var/log/Xorg*
[10:09] <Bakerconspiracy> sorry bktech86
[10:10] <Bakerconspiracy> guess I can't help w/ this one
[10:10] <Bakerconspiracy> GL man
[10:10] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: why?
[10:10] <Bakerconspiracy> I can't figure out what command would easily make visible what didn't load with X11
[10:10] <Bakerconspiracy> like input devices
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> and other media
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> maybe that's the hang up
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> could be the vid card
[10:11] <BKTech86> okay
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> that's what I'm thinking
[10:11] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: personally i think it has to do with the 64-bit OS
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> I'm on a 64 bit
[10:11] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i think it's a ram problem
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> I get hung up from suspend because of my mouse sometimes
[10:11] <Bakerconspiracy> on 10.10
[10:11] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i was telling ikonia that when i switched from 32bit lucid to 64 bit i got this problem
[10:12] <Bakerconspiracy> it would't be a ram problem then right?
[10:12] <Bakerconspiracy> driver problem
[10:12] <Bakerconspiracy> that happens from suspend
[10:13] <Bakerconspiracy> yea gonna be tough
[10:13] <roxana> dlaskdjka
[10:13] <elfranne> i want to update a value in a file with sed in a script , i have done this : sed 's/CurrentStatus=\$CurrentStatus/CurrentStatus=\$newstatus/g' $logfile     but apparently there is something wrong
[10:13] <[deXter]> Hi all, my fan's been going on most of the time in Natty on my Dell m102z AMD Fusion based netbook. This isn't the case in Win7 where the fan turns on only once in a while. Any idea how I could tweak the fan settings and/or find out what's wrong? Thanks.
[10:14] <michiduta> My L-Max 5K Serioux USB mouse does not work well with any buntu variant installed but works well in any buntu variant live
[10:14] <michiduta> What it does is it focuses on whatever control/window/panel I click first and cannot click on anything else without first doing a right-click on the currently focused window/panel/etc
[10:14] <michiduta> Anyone know why?
[10:14] <FloodBot1> michiduta: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:14] <Bakerconspiracy> bktech86 did you try that command I gave?
[10:15] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i thought it was no good.  ill try it now
[10:15] <Bakerconspiracy> cat /var/log/Xorg.* | egrep -e error
[10:15] <Bakerconspiracy> its no good because it doesn't say anything about the device
[10:16] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: the response is "(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown." - 5 times
[10:16] <Bakerconspiracy> yea so 5 times it failed to load something
[10:16] <xharx> how can I define different wallpapers for each desktop?
[10:16] <Bakerconspiracy> hold on let me think of a better way to do this

[10:21] <apple_cat> Hi, I am getting really high packet loss with my atheros wireless card (> 20%). I just upgraded to 11.04 and now the ath9k module is being used, whereas before I was using the ath5k module. Could anyone help me out with this?
[10:21] <xharx> just doing
[10:21] <coz_> xharx,   or in #xubuntu channel

[10:22] <kodapa> winXperts 10
[10:22] <kodapa> wtf
[10:23] <Bakerconspiracy> your computer is a beast
[10:23] <Bakerconspiracy>  Qosmio x505-Q885
[10:23] <Bakerconspiracy> right?
[10:24] <Bakerconspiracy> BKTech86 hey you got any 3rd party drivers running
[10:24] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i think so --
[10:25] <Bakerconspiracy> BKTech86 it seems like you are using a vesa driver for a pretty crazy video card
[10:25] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: ok i'm clueless :p
[10:25] <Bakerconspiracy> lol its cool
[10:25] <BKTech86> These package contains Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver
[10:25] <BKTech86> 3D-accelerated proprietary graphics driver for NVIDIA cards.
[10:25] <Bakerconspiracy> goto system -> administration -> additional drivers
[10:25] <BKTech86> those 2
[10:25] <Bakerconspiracy> yea
[10:25] <Bakerconspiracy> hmm
[10:26] <Bakerconspiracy> and that graphics driver is enabled?
[10:26] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i don't have a thing called "additional drivers" in the admin menui
[10:26] <Bakerconspiracy> oh yea
[10:26] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: yes, if i disable it, my screen gets all big res and stuff -- and suspend REALLY doesnt work :p
[10:26] <dr_Willis> just run jockey-gtk
[10:26] <Bakerconspiracy> you're on 11
[10:26] <dr_Willis> easier then looking for a menu item
[10:26] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i'm in lucid 64-bit
[10:28] <Bakerconspiracy> you need 10.04

[10:28] <eristikophiles> daym
[10:28] <eristikophiles> that qosmio thing is ridiculous.
[10:28] <eristikophiles> reminds me of my brother's alienware (or any alienware i guess)
[10:28] <eristikophiles> in terms of its insanity
[10:29] <eristikophiles> 9.something lbs!
[10:29] <eristikophiles> hehe
[10:29] <Bakerconspiracy> bktech86 you need 10.04 for the support?
[10:29] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: no
[10:29] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: i just didn't upgrade to natty
[10:30] <BKTech86> eristikophiles: i just flew to dublin and they told me my bag couldn't be over 10kg lol.  so i packed my laptop and a few shirts lol
[10:30] <Bakerconspiracy> alright give me one last quick go
[10:30] <BKTech86> Bakerconspiracy: you may have as many gos as you'd like
[10:30] <GhostFreeman> What are my options for DLNA Sharing in Ubuntu?
[10:31] <dr_Willis> GhostFreeman:  theres a few dnla servers, meditomb has a nice gui. ushare (i think) is another no gui however
[10:31] <dr_Willis> !info ushare
[10:32] <GhostFreeman> well i'm all about gui so i'll try Meditomb
[10:32] <dr_Willis> GhostFreeman:  xbmc and boxee can do it also i think
[10:32] <eristikophiles> BKTech86- that's funny :)
[10:32] <eristikophiles> i think my backpack is well over 10kg
[10:32] <GhostFreeman> I had Rygel installed but none of my devices picked up on Rygel so i'm going to switch. Thanks
[10:32] <eristikophiles> with just the random crap i keep in it
[10:33] <MeglaW> ushare has a web-ui for adding new shares and refreshing
[10:33] <BKTech86> eristikophiles: yeah .. 10kg is surprisingly little
[10:33] <MeglaW> a bit basic but works.
[10:33] <Refael> has anybody ascertained the way to fetch a channel server in freenode?
[10:34] <dr_Willis> refael 'fetch a chanel server' means.. err.. very little to me..
[10:34] <eristikophiles> had to check. that's 22lbs.. but still, not all that much
[10:34] <eristikophiles> i know it weighs more than a 20lbs bar weight would
[10:34] <erix> Hi all
[10:34] <erix> I trying to give permission to folder with ACL
[10:35] <Refael> dr_Willis: similar when a person registers a #channel_name, how does the person discern the Server_name?
[10:35] <erix> setfacl -M g:1000:r index.txt
[10:35] <erix> I tried to do smthing but it gives an error
[10:35] <erix> No such a file or directory
[10:35] <MeglaW> Refael: how about #help on freenode?
[10:36] <box_> bonjour
[10:36] <dr_Willis> if you mean a list of freenode servers.. the web site has a list of them.  i recall somew command /links ? used agres ago to see what servers where  on the network]

[10:44] <kkkkk> hi, i have a problem with eog 2.32.1 - after compilation when i run it and open some file it crushes in../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/____longjmp_chk.S:112 no such file ?? any sugestions what maybe wrong?
[10:45] <beester> when upgrading to 11.04 I did not accept the microdoft agreement to install their fonts and web eula stuff. Dose any one know what the consequences are of that.
[10:45] <dr_Willis> they dident get nstallled beester  - i belive
[10:46] <Promethes> hi, in 11.4 i cannot reorder open windows on gnome panel, how to enable this? Anyone?
[10:47] <DJones> beester: I would think it will just not install the mstcorefonts package which will stop you getting any MS fonts
[10:47] <beester> how crucial are they to making things work on my linux. when installing linux I really don't want anything to do with microdoft
[10:47] <tsimpson> kkkkk: it crashed deep in internals, report it to the developers
[10:47] <dr_Willis> then dont use them. browsers will use alternativ4es
[10:48] <beester> ok thanks
[10:49] <kkkkk> tsimpson, i'm trying to talk with them on irc but no responce ... but thanks anyway,
[10:50] <kkkkk> as i'm here: does anybody know some app that would need some optymalisation in speed or ram usage?
[10:51] <Syria> I need an app to record my desktop and zoom on some places. thnx in advance
[10:52] <DJones> !screencast | Syria There's a few apps to record your desktop listed in this link, I've not used them, but if you have a look at them one might be suitable

[10:56] <BlackDalek> How can I tell if DMA is turned on or off for my DVD drive?
[10:56] <ollie66> The right parameters are set, configuration is read (and reported in php), but parameters are completely ignored
[10:56] <dr_Willis> !dma
[10:58] <BlackDalek> dr_Willis, I just came here from that page. And that page doesn't tell me how to find out if it is on or off - only how to enable it... but the instructions provided do not seem to apply to my system.
[10:59] <dr_Willis> hdparm command can show. but i was thinking its automatically on for most hds these days
[10:59] <ar1s> hello
[10:59] <dr_Willis> hdparm is a little bit 'old skool' these days also
[11:00] <ollie66> how disable suhosin (or enable the use of parameters like whitelist) on 10.04 64-bit?
[11:00] <baijupattera> ar1s, yeah come on
[11:01] <ar1s> I've got a problem : I'd like to upgrade my 8.10 server to something newer, but do-release-upgrade fails because 9.04 is not supported anymore too (and not in repositories). Is there a migration path between 8.10 and 11.04 or 10.10 ?
[11:01] <dr_Willis> !eol
[11:02] <qdb> hello. how to manually run window that says "your language is not installed completely" ?
[11:02] <baijupattera> ar1s, see this http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/upgrade
[11:03] <ar1s> applied procedure, fails with "Extracting the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server."
[11:03] <BlackDalek> dr_Willis, sudo hdparm /dev/sr0 does not output anything mentioning using_dma or anything else pertaining to dma... does this mean DMA is off?
[11:03] <baijupattera> ar1s, I dont think direct way for 8.10 to 11.04
[11:04] <baijupattera> ar1s, I dont think a direct way for 8.10 to 11.04
[11:04] <xmaz> Hello is there a way i can put all files from one folder to another including subfolders?
[11:04] <Take> Good day
[11:04] <Beumac> New to linux...All of my hdd's are NTFS format. Is there any reason that 3 out of 5 NTFS drives would show up but the other 2 are missing?
[11:05] <Take> I've ran into an issue with preseeding and ubiquity and it seems that I'm not alone
[11:05] <baijupattera> Beumac, may be if any encrypted drives in it
[11:05] <Take> It seems that d-i preseed/late_command isn't never executed, any ideas?
[11:05] <ar1s> baijupattera, passing by 9.04 is not a big problem, but seems like the upgrade path to 9.04 is broken
[11:06] <Beumac> I don't think they are encrypted...or at least I didn't do it!
[11:06] <sunsea> helllo

[11:08] <Sik> Silly question, I have a Spanish keyboard but I want an easy way to type Japanese characters without having to go to the character map (not to mention kanji is impossible to type otherwise). Any suggestions? (and I tried SCIM before, the result was a disaster as it broke Gnome's log-in screen -_-')
[11:09] <xmaz> Hello is there a way i can put all files from one folder to another including subfolders?
[11:09] <BlackDalek> how do I tell is DMA is on or off for my DVD drive?
[11:09] <baijupattera> ar1s, u may get answer from here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades
[11:10] <Sidewinder1> xmaz, Just drag and drop in any file mgr. program.
[11:10] <coz_> BlackDalek,   check here although I think it is an older post    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA   let me find another more current one
[11:11] <ar1s> baijupattera, i'll check out, thanks for your feedback
[11:11] <REK_007> can anyone tell me IRC where i can get support for burg?
[11:11] <coz_> REK_007,   burg?

[11:11] <Sidewinder1> Ouch
[11:12] <REK_007> coz_: Its an extended GRUB2
[11:12] <baijupattera> !burg
[11:12] <coz_> REK_007,  ah  ok
[11:12] <Sidewinder1> xmax, Then type man cp
[11:12] <coz_> REK_007,  you might want to go to #grub  channel as well
[11:12] <baijupattera> ! burg
[11:13] <baijupattera> ubottu said dont know "burg"
[11:13] <Beumac> So no one knows why I have 2 NTFS drives that aren't showing up? I know this isn't a hardware issue.
[11:13] <Beumac> Or has a possible reason that is =p
[11:15] <baijupattera> Beumac, where did u check it? by gparted?
[11:15] <elfranne> sed 's/= .*//' is not supposed to delete what comes after = ?
[11:15] <qdb> hello. how to manually run window that says "your language is not installed completely" ?
[11:15] <quiescens> elfranne: sort of
[11:15] <Beumac> baijupattera, well, I'm new to Linux I did look at fdisk...but it's not listed as one of my drives on ubuntu either.
[11:16] <BlackDalek> coz_, yeah - that page is no help at all. the "Enabling DMA with `hdparm`" section doesn't work and the "ATAPI DVD drives" section makes statements that are completely wrong for my system configuration
[11:16] <elfranne> quiescens but it does not ...
[11:16] <coz_> BlackDalek,  yeah I was afraid of that
[11:16] <baijupattera> Beumac, r u sure it not encrypted?
[11:16] <qdb> how to echo "123\n123" >1.txt so that \n is new line?
[11:16] <coz_> BlackDalek,  I am sure someone here has experience with it however,, if no one at this time does ,, also log into the ## linux channel,, they may have someone there that knows
[11:16] <Beumac> One is my Windows OS the other one is just storage...I didn't encrypt them or do anything extra I didn't do to my other 3 drives.
[11:17] <quiescens> elfranne: delete anything after a = and a space, including the equals and space
[11:17] <baijupattera> qdb, run 'language support' and install the desired languages
[11:17] <qdb> thank you, baijupattera
[11:17] <qdb> baijupattera, they are already installed i think
[11:17] <fxm> ni
[11:17] <fxm> hao
[11:18] <fxm> zai nallo
[11:18] <qdb> hello. how to echo "123\n123" >1.txt so that \n is new line?
[11:18] <elfranne> quiescens, got any idea to just delete = and what comes after ?
[11:18] <quiescens> qdb: echo -e
[11:18] <baijupattera> qdb, it installs only the english by default,regional u may need to do
[11:18] <quiescens> elfranne: you have to get rid of the space
[11:18] <qdb> baijupattera, i have selected rusaaian on installation
[11:19] <qdb> quiescens, thank you
[11:19] <BlackDalek> I am trying to troubleshoot choppy DVD playback - does anyone know how I can verify if DMA is turned on or off for my DVD drive? ...and PLEASE DO NOT post a link to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA - that page is no help at all.
[11:19] <Sik> Does anybody know how to install support for typing Japanese with a non-Jap keyboard? (ideally avoiding SCIM, it gave me trouble last time I tried)
[11:19] <elfranne> quiescens, oh i did not even noticed that i had a spece -_- ... thx a lot mate
[11:20] <dr_Willis> !dvd
[11:20] <dr_Willis> dd the dvd to an iso file.. check the transfer speeds.
[11:20] <dr_Willis> oh wait the default dd dosent give that info. :()
[11:21] <dr_Willis> copy all the files from dvd to a directory, watch transfer speeds.
[11:21] <LinSkyrate> anyone strugles to install Ubuntu through bootcamp on a MacMini Latest
[11:21] <frostschutz> Sik: Install language support for Japanese (ibus-anthy)
[11:21] <dr_Willis> DMA as far as i know is always defaulted to being ON.
[11:21] <qdb> baijupattera, russian is already installed, but after restart of OS after some time appears a window that gives ability to install remaining language packages, if i close it, how to run it?
[11:21] <dr_Willis> at least in newer disrtos
[11:21] <baijupattera> qdb, if it says does not installed it completely,run it once again and install it
[11:21] <Sik> frostschutz: is that all? Also, if Gnome's log-in screen breaks (it did with SCIM before), what should I do? :P
[11:22] <Beumac> baijupattera, how would I find the drives if they were encrypted?
[11:22] <frostschutz> Sik: ubuntu should set up everything for you if you go through the language configuration screen (not sure where that is hidden nowadays though)
[11:22] <qdb> baijupattera, to run it once again i need to restart or relogin, or know out from system monitor its name, from startup applications i have not found it
[11:22] <Sik> I mean, last time I tried installing SCIM and next time I booted Gnome wouldn't let me log in
[11:23] <baijupattera> qdb, I said to take the "language support" from menu and do
[11:23] <Sik> I want to know what to do if something like that happens again >_>
[11:23] <qdb> baijupattera, language support opens other window
[11:23] <frostschutz> Sik: well, if that happens you might just go down to the regular text console and uninstall it. never had that issue though
[11:23] <baijupattera> qdb,u see the options there
[11:23] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, If they are usb or esata drives, you might try booting into Windows and "Safely Remove Hardware" than see if Ubuntu lists them.
[11:24] <Sik> Er OK... It was SCIM anyways not just Anthy so maybe I have luck this time :/ (it was 32-bit Ubuntu and CPU turned out to be 64-bit so I just "fixed" it by upgrading to 64-bit Ubuntu and ditching the old install)
[11:24] <frostschutz> Sik: ibus is the scim replacement so to speak. I switched from scim to ibus myself recently because scim refused to work with firefox4
[11:24] <Sik> OK
[11:24] <Beumac> Hmmm, they are sata drives...if I do that in windows will they pop back up the next time I boot up windows?
[11:24] <Beumac> or wait...
[11:24] <BlackDalek> dr_Willis, I am running 10.04 Lucid on this laptop. so I assumed that DMA was on, but since DVD playback is acting choppy.... I wanted to check that DMA is actually on.
[11:24] <baijupattera> qdb, there r opptions as install/remove packages and "apply system wide like that
[11:25] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, They are externals, right?
[11:25] <Beumac> They are NOT external
[11:25] <dr_Willis> check the dvd transfer speeds. and the info in that drive management tools perhaps.
[11:25] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Then disregard my previous.
[11:25] <dr_Willis> i forget its exaxct names
[11:25] <Beumac> haha yeah, I figured
[11:25] <Sik> So now that ibus is installed, what?
[11:26] <BlackDalek> dr_Willis, what should I expect to see when copying dvd?
[11:26] <Beumac> I don't understand why these two drives won't pop up in ubuntu =( So weird, is there a way to view the ntfs config or something?
[11:27] <dr_Willis> blackdalek - no idea - i rarely even use optical disks these days
[11:27] <baijupattera> Beumac, did u try in nautlilus under file system?
[11:27] <Beumac> I don't even know what that is =p
[11:28] <Beumac> oh
[11:28] <bob3291> hello people! got a quesiton... when im on this site and watch embedded from youtube, they lag like crazy, but when i watch them on youtube they are fine! :s
[11:28] <Beumac> it's the file manager lol
[11:28] <bob3291> anyone esle had that  ?
[11:29] <Beumac> Yeah, that's where I checked other than fdisk...they just aren't there.
[11:30] <BlackDalek> dr_Willis, well... it transfers at around 950K/sec if that helps at all
[11:30] <dr_Willis> that seems slow to me. less then 1mb/sec. ]
[11:30] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Try System-->Administration--> Gparted and see if they are listed there.
[11:31] <pranay_09> hi, i have a beetle usb modem which works fine in windows but i cant use it to connect to net in ubuntu, do i need to download any driver
[11:31] <dr_Willis> dial up modem? DSL modem?
[11:31] <pranay_09> Dial up
[11:32] <Beumac> Hmmm Sidewinder1 there is no gparted under system>administration
[11:32] <dr_Willis> !dialup
[11:32] <Beumac> wait, I do see them in the disk utility Sidewinder1
[11:33] <Sik> Screw that ibus working :D あなたはクールです！
[11:33] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Then try System-->Administration-->Dish Utility.
[11:33] <Sik> See ya
[11:33] <Sidewinder1> Disk
[11:33] <Beumac> Yeah, Sidewinder1 They are listed!
[11:33] <pranay_09> thanks :)
[11:34] <Beumac> How do I make them work Sidewinder1
[11:34] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, What file format are they?
[11:35] <Beumac> NTFS
[11:35] <Beumac> but
[11:35] <Beumac> it says unknown
[11:36] <Syria> Please tell me what is the option record 3d in istanbul recorder used for.
[11:37] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, You could always use Windows to copy all of the data from them and then, using a partitioning tool and reformat them to ext3 or ext4, CAUTION, reformatting will destroy ALL data on those drives.
[11:38] <Beumac> lol I'm not sure I have 1.5 tb of disk space free to do that atm
[11:38] <Sakara> Got a Ubuntu 11.04 machine that authenticating against a server running ldap kerberos. A user I can login to the workstation who is part of the admin group is unable to perform sudo commands. I've no idea why.
[11:38] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, What I can't figure is the "Unknown"?
[11:39] <Sakara> Can anyone suggest where I might start to look?
[11:39] <Beumac> Yeah! The assessments from the SMART data all say "good" or "n/a"
[11:41] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Can't fathom why Nautilus doesn't see them.
[11:41] <facelessloser> hi anyone know of any good ubuntu/linux podcast to listen to
[11:42] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, In Nautilus, did you click "view" then "side pane"?
[11:42] <Beumac> Sidewinder1,  side pane is checked, yes.
[11:43] <baijupattera> facelessloser, http://ubuntupodcast.net/
[11:43] <facelessloser> thanks baijupattera
[11:43] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Only other thing: open a terminal and type sudo fdisk -l     That's a lower case L...
[11:45] <Beumac> Okay, I've done that.
[11:45] <Beumac> Looks like they are all listed.
[11:46] <qdb> baijupattera, apply system wide does not open that window but requests password
[11:46] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, If they also do not show up in "Places", than I'm lost...Sorry
[11:47] <baijupattera> qdp: u should be the administrator to do that
[11:47] <Beumac> Nope, Sidewinder1 they don't show up there either =(
[11:47] <baijupattera> facelessloser, and this too http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/
[11:48] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Sorry...:-( Maybe a little later, ask again here; the guys you're lookin' for is dr_Willis or ActionParsnip.
[11:49] <Beumac> thanks for trying Sidewinder1! I still learned a couple things haha =)
[11:49] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, That's important, too...
[11:50] <Beumac> I wouldn't be so heart broken if I at least had my music haha
[11:50] <Sidewinder1> :-)
[11:51] <usr13> Sidewinder1: what is Beumac looking for?
[11:51] <usr13> Beumac: What are you trying to do?
[11:51] <Beumac> I have 2 NTFS drives that won't show up in Ubuntu...
[11:51] <Sidewinder1> usr13, His system is not seeing an internal NTFS part.
[11:52] <Beumac> They show up under disk utility
[11:52] <Beumac> and when performing sudo fdisk -l
[11:52] <Sidewinder1> !NTFS | Beumac
[11:52] <usr13> Beumac: sudo fdisk -l  | pastebinit    #Send resulting URL.
[11:53] <Beumac> send resting url?
[11:54] <szal> Beumac: clean your glasses ;)
[11:54] <Sidewinder1> :-)

[11:54] <usr13> Beumac: Issue command:  sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[11:54] <Beumac> For some reason xchat screws up a bit graphically...
[11:54] <usr13> Beumac: And send us the resulting URL
[11:54] <Beumac> sometimes the words are off and or the end is cut off =/
[11:55] <Sidewinder1> send us = list it here...
[11:55] <Beumac> Not sure why that is haha, I haven't had to install any drivers yet though. Was surprised at that one.
[11:55] <usr13> Beumac: Between fdisk -l  and Pastebinit is the pipe command |  On my keyboard, it is the key above enter which also has \  but  uppercase gives you |  (The pipe command)
[11:56] <usr13> Beumac: But you can just cut and paste it:  sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[11:56] <Beumac> http://paste.ubuntu.com/612233/
[11:56] <Beumac> sorry had to install pastebinit
[11:58] <usr13> Beumac: Looks like you have 5 NTFS partitions:  sda1 sdb1 sdc1 sd31 sdd1  Which one do you need?
[11:58] <djxcqtion> hey there
[11:59] <Beumac> sda1 and...hmmm not sure which tb drive it is hah
[11:59] <adam61> hey, i just deselected an option in compiz config settings, it was the unity one, i thought it would just delete the settings but it removed my whole desktop. can someone please help me get it back? thanks
[11:59] <usr13> You can manually mount them.  Example:
[11:59] <djxcqtion> Just got Ubuntu 11.04 and it freezes when it loads up.Is it my graphics card?Is there any way around this?
[11:59] <usr13> sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1 ; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
[12:00] <usr13> And then take your file manager to /mnt/sda1
[12:00] <usr13> Or just:  ls /mnt/sda1
[12:00] <mathews_> djxcqtion, how u reach there,upgrade?
[12:01] <djxcqtion> Well I first tired through upgrade
[12:01] <djxcqtion> then installed through USB
[12:01] <djxcqtion> it gives me the same problem matthews
[12:01] <mathews_> djxcqtion, could u reach the desktop?
[12:01] <DocPlatypus> anyone here familiar with the game Those Funny Funguloids? Will it work at all on an Intel GMA 3150?
[12:01] <djxcqtion> I get the start screen it starts flickering
[12:01] <adam61> does anyone know how to open compiz config settings manager from terminal?
[12:02] <usr13> Beumac: You should probably look to see if any of these partitions are already mounted.  To do that use the mount command.  If you issue the mount command without arguments, it will show all mounted partitions.
[12:02] <djxcqtion> well yes..but I couldnt do anything cause it just kept flickering matthews
[12:02] <mathews_> adam61, install it from software center first
[12:03] <kamelot314> `CCSM
[12:03] <usr13> Beumac: But the system will tell you if it is already mounted (when you try to mount it again).
[12:03] <Beumac> aye
[12:03] <kamelot314> adam61: once installed, type CCSM in terminal;
[12:03] <Beumac> Hmm
[12:04] <paul_> j/ cyLEDGE
[12:04] <paul_> help
[12:04] <adam61> mathews_, ok thanks. i do have it installed already, but i need to reinstall eh? k
[12:04] <usr13> You should tell us something a bit more informative than aye or Hmm   ;)
[12:04] <Beumac> usr13, I copy pasted the command you sent it didn't seem to work
[12:04] <adam61> kamelot314: ok thanks. gonna reinstall then i'll do that
[12:04] <mathews_> adam61, do what kamelot314 said
[12:04] <Beumac> or at least they aren't showing up in nautilus still
[12:04] <usr13> Beumac: Did it give you an error?
[12:04] <djxcqtion> hey mathews_ : any solution?
[12:05] <Beumac> Nope
[12:05] <Beumac> just went back to the prompt
[12:05] <usr13>   ls /mnt/sda1 | pastebinit
[12:05] <mathews_> djxcqtion, I think it related to the integrity of ur iso file.did u check the md5 of it?
[12:05] <djxcqtion> md5?
[12:05] <usr13> Beumac: And send resulting URL.
[12:05] <adam61> mathews_, how do i open software center? i only have access to terminal and xchat cause i had hotkeys for them
[12:06] <Beumac> You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[12:06] <usr13> mount | pastebinit
[12:06] <mathews_> djxcqtion, yeah,right click on the iso file and select the md5 sum and compare it with the one provided in the downloading page
[12:06] <viliny> Hello, i had some problems and uncertainties with mysql and phpmyadmin earlier so i did a purge removal of both. Now i installed mysql again and im really confused as to how i can set up my user on it. It lets me in as my username (viliny) without a password but nothing else. And trying to se my password im getting no luck... whats the syntax here?
[12:06] <djxcqtion> mathews_: md5? I downladed it from the Ubuntu site
[12:06] <kamelot314> adam61: /usr/sbin/synaptic ==> must to be root
[12:07] <Beumac> usr13, http://paste.ubuntu.com/612236/
[12:07] <djxcqtion> ok wil =l do
[12:07] <adam61> kamelot314: thanks
[12:07] <mathews_> adam61, did u type CCSM in terminal
[12:08] <djxcqtion> i downl;oed it from the Ubuntu Website mathews
[12:08] <adam61> mathews_, ya i tried that first but it said command not found
[12:08] <djxcqtion> I am on a windows  machine now..I use a Intel 865G chipset
[12:08] <djxcqtion> is it compitable
[12:08] <mathews_> djxcqtion, but for clearing the doubt just check it,and make a start up disk by running the live cd of the same
[12:09] <usr13> Beumac: It appears you have that second one mounted. /dev/sdb1 is mounted on mount point /media/Big Daddy
[12:09] <kamelot314> adam61: type : sudo aptitude install compizconfig-settings-manager
[12:09] <Beumac> Big daddy was already showing up
[12:10] <Diverdude> is there a way i can to make ubuntu tile all windows so that they are standing next to each other?
[12:10] <Beumac> I need the 500gb and the 1tb named "holdsalot"
[12:10] <usr13> Beumac: Have you looked at /media/Big Daddy to see if anything there is what you need?
[12:10] <adam61> kamelot314: ok great thanks. that sounds better than synaptic since there are so many packages there
[12:10] <Beumac> Well, Bigdaddy actually shows up in places
[12:10] <djxcqtion> will do mathews_
[12:10] <Diverdude> in windows i can press the taskbar and press eg. tile vertically or tile horizontally
[12:10] <usr13> Beumac: Ok, let's go back to trying to mount sda1
[12:10] <Beumac> and really isn't much more than a windows backup file haha
[12:10] <kamelot314> adam61: in Synaptic, juste type Compiz in the search box and they show you the pakage to install
[12:11] <usr13> Beumac: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1   #Tell me what that does or says back to you.
[12:11] <adam61> kamelot314: ok i have it installed, how do i open it?
[12:11] <mathews_> djxcqtion, one mnt pls, was it ok when u ran the live cd
[12:12] <kamelot314> adam61: Type CCSM in terminal, it should work now
[12:12] <Beumac> just a prompt
[12:12] <qdb> is there /etc/ppp/resolv.conf by default in ubuntu 11.04 ?
[12:12] <Beumac> well first it said only root
[12:12] <Beumac> but then I added sudo ;p
[12:12] <usr13> Beumac: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1   #Tell me what that does or says back to you.
[12:12] <mathews_> kamelot314, CCSM not working says error
[12:12] <kamelot314> adam61: You don't have the menu bar on top window?
[12:12] <usr13> Yea, my mistake
[12:12] <usr13> ... I'm only humna...
[12:13] <usr13> *human
[12:13] <kamelot314> mathews_ : did you try in low case?
[12:13] <adam61> kamelot314: no, i don't. it said command not found again; i didn't think it'd be different cause i had it installed before
[12:13] <pksadiq> !Human?
[12:13] <mathews_> kamelot314, ok,let me....
[12:13] <usr13> Beumac: Did that do anything?
[12:14] <Beumac> Not that I can see =(
[12:14] <Beumac> Just came back to the prompt, nothing in nautilus
[12:14] <mathews_> kamelot314, yeah it came
[12:14] <pksadiq> Adam can you login to X? Ie you get the GUI?
[12:14] <Beumac> places or the media folder
[12:14] <kamelot314> mathews_ :P Sorry my mistake!
[12:15] <usr13> Beumac: ls /mnt/sda1 | pastebinit
[12:15] <mathews_> kamelot314, its ok
[12:15] <adam61> pksadiq, not quite sure what X is.. when i login, it looks the same except the launcher and the menu bar don't come up
[12:15] <usr13> Beumac: Anything there?
[12:15] <mathews_> adam61, did u see what kamelot314 said,use the lower case as ccsm
[12:15] <adam61> mathews_, oh ok thanks, i hadn't seen that. i'll give it a try
[12:16] <Diverdude> in windows i can press the taskbar and press eg. tile vertically or tile horizontally
[12:16] <kamelot314> adam61: i suggest also to install compiz_fusion
[12:16] <Beumac> s: command not found
[12:16] <Beumac> You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[12:16] <Diverdude> is there a way i can to make ubuntu tile all windows so that they are standing next to each other?
[12:17] <djxcqtion> mathwes_ : The MD5 sums are the same
[12:17] <usr13> Beumac: Let's try another one:
[12:17] <djxcqtion> 8b1085bed498b82ef1485ef19074c281
[12:17] <usr13> sudo mkdir /mnt/sde1 ; mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/sde1
[12:17] <usr13> sudo mkdir /mnt/sde1 ; sudo mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/sde1
[12:17] <djxcqtion> thats the MD5 sums
[12:17] <adam61> mathews_, kamelot314: lower case worked! but when i click on unity again, it gives me a conflicts warning; should i "ignore" or "resolve"?
[12:17] <usr13> ... forgot sudo on the first one.
[12:18] <djxcqtion> mathews_ : To answer your earlier question I ran it through USB installation and the same problem occurs
[12:18] <djxcqtion> Im trying it on USB right now
[12:18] <djxcqtion> it seems to be flickering
[12:19] <usr13> Beumac: Anything there?
[12:19] <Beumac> Wait which one?
[12:19] <usr13> /mnt/sde1
[12:19] <Beumac> oh nm
[12:19] <mathews_> djxcqtion, I was asking on live session means before the installation
[12:19] <kamelot314> adam61: Unity?
[12:19] <Beumac> Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened.
[12:20] <adam61> kamelot314: ya, it says "Some edge and key bindings of Plugin Ubuntu Unity Plugin conflict with other plugins. Do you want to resolve these conflicts?"
[12:20] <adam61> i'm thinking ignore..
[12:20] <Beumac> oh thats the 250 gig thats actually what ubuntu is installed on usr13
[12:20] <djxcqtion> Yeah the start up screen comes up.and then it reaches the desktop screen and then starts flickering.
[12:20] <mathews_> adam61, I dont know what to do....lol
[12:21] <adam61> mathews_, haha np
[12:21] <Beumac> I need sda1 and either sdb1 or sdb
[12:21] <usr13> Beumac: Oh yea, I missed that.  sde1 is already mounted on /host So look there and see.  ls /host | pastebinit
[12:21] <kamelot314> Adam61: Same since i'm not using Ubuntu.. but try to fix it ... click yes
[12:21] <djxcqtion> Im perplexed cause I used Ubuntu 10.04 and the problem didnt occur
[12:21] <mathews_> djxcqtion, then it is graphics issue
[12:21] <djxcqtion> is it because of Unity or because of my graphics card?
[12:21] <usr13> Beumac: Or point your file manager to /mnt/sde1
[12:21] <usr13> Beumac: No, not /mnt/sde1    /host
[12:22] <djxcqtion> I use an Intel 82865G chipset
[12:22] <adam61> kamelot314: ok i'll go for it
[12:22] <mathews_> djxcqtion, run the "additional drives" from menu and see any driver required to
[12:22] <djxcqtion> is that an issue>
[12:22] <Beumac> http://paste.ubuntu.com/612240/
[12:22] <usr13> Beumac: Your mount ponit for /dev/sde1 is /host
[12:22] <mathews_> djxcqtion, "additional drivers"\\
[12:22] <mathews_> djxcqtion, "additional drivers" I meant
[12:23] <usr13> Beumac: So what was that?
[12:23] <[deXter]> Hi all, how can I disable compiz in Natty?
[12:23] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, You're using wubi, aren't you?
[12:23] <Moopz> Hey. I have a problem. After I had a projector plugged into my laptop, I can suddenly only do 1680 x 1050 instead of 1920 x 1080. How do I fix this?
[12:23] <djxcqtion> ok im I would admit I dont know what you are talking about
[12:23] <Beumac> wubi?
[12:23] <djxcqtion> how do i check addition drivers>
[12:23] <usr13> http://paste.ubuntu.com/612240/  was the output of what?
[12:23] <usr13> Beumac: Oh, so you have a wubi install?
[12:23] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, Did you install ubuntu from within the Windows environment?
[12:23] <djxcqtion> im using Wubi btw
[12:23] <Beumac> Yes, I did
[12:24] <mathews_> djxcqtion, click the menu button and type additional drivers
[12:24] <usr13> I seee.....
[12:24] <adam61> kamelot314: i think i set the first setting properly, but not quite sure what this means: "The new value for the key binding for the action Key to put keyboard-focus on launcher in plugin Ubuntu Unity Plugin conflicts with the action Show Main Menu of the Gnome Compatibility plugin.Do you wish to disable Show Main Menu in the Gnome Compatibility plugin?"
[12:24] <Sidewinder1> Beumac, WOW! That explaines alot!
[12:24] <sattu94> where is this exactly mounted so that i can access it through terminal ? --> smb://windows_shared_server/shared_folder/
[12:24] <Beumac> Was unable to figure out how to add the boot manager to my usb stick ;p
[12:24] <Beumac> That a bad thing?
[12:24] <Sidewinder1> IMHO
[12:24] <Sidewinder1> Yes
[12:24] <mathews_> djxcqtion, in the search box or see in the system settings by clicking on shut down applet on top right end
[12:24] <usr13> Sidewinder1: Your turn again.  I don't know much about wubi
[12:24] <Beumac> lol...
[12:25] <djxcqtion> on my Ubuntu desktop ??
[12:25] <Beumac> wth is wubi? ;p
[12:25] <Moopz> Hey. I have a problem. After I had a projector plugged into my laptop, I can suddenly only do 1680 x 1050 instead of 1920 x 1080. How do I fix this?
[12:25] <Beumac> oh nm
[12:25] <kamelot314> adam61: what was your problem at the beginning?
[12:25] <Sidewinder1> usr13, Beumac Me neither, besides I think I have to go to work, :-(
[12:25] <szal> !repeat | Moopz
[12:25] <Beumac> it's the win installer
[12:25] <Beumac> you think? lol go to work Sidewinder1 !
[12:26] <viliny> Hello
[12:26] <viliny> Can someone help me with msyql?
[12:26] <mathews_> djxcqtion, it works if u can reach the desktop,otherwise dont know what to do
[12:26] <usr13> Beumac: So, what is your situation exactly?  Can't you just boot to MS Windows and find / negotiate your files in the NTFS partitions?
[12:26] <Sidewinder1> !wubi | Beumac
[12:26] <Beumac> Yea, I googled it Sidewinder1 =p
[12:27] <djxcqtion> well i guess im going to have to go back to 10.10
[12:27] <adam61> kamelot314: it just said there were compatibility issues in switching back to unity, and should i ignore or resolve them. i clicked resolve and the first was about flip left disable or something. the second i think i should disable it because the "Key to put keyboard-focus on launcher in plugin..." is probably a replacement for the "main menu" am i right?
[12:27] <thegoodcushion> Is it possible to change my launchpad password?
[12:27] <Sidewinder1> IMHO, with all due respect to the developere, it's a mess...
[12:27] <Beumac> my situation is pretty much all my media is on the tb drive and my music is on the 500gb drive
[12:27] <usr13> Beumac: I do not recommend wubi  I recommend a real linux install.
[12:27] <kamelot314> adam61: yep do it
[12:27] <Beumac> Well...Then I guess I need to figure out how to install ubuntu from my usb drive
[12:27] <sattu94> where are samba file shares mounted ?
[12:27] <usr13> Beumac: So what do you want to do with it?
[12:28] <Beumac> I was unable to figure out how to get the boot manager on it
[12:28] <adriantr>  KJJH
[12:28] <adriantr> KJNBM
[12:28] <adriantr> KJHBL
[12:28] <adriantr> KLHJÑO
[12:28] <mathews_> djxcqtion, pls see any threads related to this www.askubuntu.com or ubuntu launchpad
[12:28] <FloodBot1> adriantr: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:28] <djxcqtion> usr13 im using WUbi as well and seem to have problems with installation
[12:28] <Beumac> What do I want to do with ubuntu? Switch to using it more and get to know linux ;p
[12:28] <adam61> kamelot314: ok great, everything's back! thank you very much!
[12:28] <kamelot314> adam61: no problem!
[12:28] <Beumac> I would like to only be using windows for gaming really
[12:29] <djxcqtion> thanks mathew_
[12:29] <usr13> Beumac: Do you have some hard drive space you can spare for the Ubuntu install?
[12:29] <kamelot314> Beaumac: Nope i do
[12:29] <adam61> mathews_, thanks to you too
[12:29] <Beumac> well, the one I installed ubuntu on can be formatted as well as the 120 gig
[12:29] <ePax> What kind of backup can i use in ubuntu-server that supports extended attributes from win? Rsync can not handle it.
[12:30] <Beumac> not really using those two drives at this time
[12:30] <Fudge> hi how can one submit apps into ubuntu repo, mangler
[12:30] <usr13> how about sdb1?
[12:30] <usr13> Beumac: how much of sdb1 is used?
[12:30] <Beumac> I use a usb stick with "yumi" to multi boot a ton of different things
[12:30] <qdb> hello. is there /etc/ppp/resolv.conf by default in ubuntu 11.04 ?
[12:30] <Beumac> the first 3 drives are pretty much full
[12:30] <Moopz> So what should I do, if not repeat my question until someone answers?
[12:30] <mathews_> djxcqtion, come back here after some time may some handy will be here to help u
[12:30] <usr13> qdb: /etc/resolv.conf
[12:31] <Beumac> like 150 gigs free on both tb drives
[12:31] <qdb> hello. is there /etc/ppp/resolv.conf by default in ubuntu 11.04 ? please run "ls /etc/ppp/" and look...
[12:31] <usr13> Beumac: You could allocate 50 or 60G for linux on one of them.
[12:31] <andygraybeal> what type of Ubuntu 10.04 has a recovery console, is it all of them?  or is it only desktop?
[12:31] <usr13> Beumac: Right?
[12:31] <llutz_> qdb: it is (10.10)
[12:32] <Beumac> I wouldn't mind giving the current drive everything it has for linux
[12:32] <qdb> llutz_ thank you . but i want to know about 11 04
[12:32] <Beumac> or even the 120 gig
[12:32] <usr13> Beumac: Which is the current drive?
[12:32] <Beumac> doesn't matter.
[12:32] <usr13> Beumac: sda ?
[12:32] <Beumac> uhh
[12:33] <qdb> llutz_ i have written into it, have not looked before that, nor backed up
[12:33] <Moopz> I have a problem. After I had a projector plugged into my laptop, I can suddenly only do 1680 x 1050 instead of 1920 x 1080. How do I fix this?
[12:33] <hungryhubby> i want to share files with other ubuntu users
[12:33] <Beumac> usr13,  sde
[12:34] <usr13> looks like the wubi is on sdg1 ? I don't know but just seeing  "/dev/sdg1 on /media/MULTIBOOT type vfat"
[12:34] <usr13> ls /media/MULTIBOOT | pastebinit
[12:35] <mathews_> hungryhubby, see the "users and groups"
[12:35] <Beumac> I'm sorry I meant sde1, g1 maybe because wubi partitioned it or something?
[12:36] <usr13> Beumac: It is really up to  you.  But I would suggest you pick a place and just install.  Pick which ever drive you want and do a real linux install on it, tell the installer to install grub on the primary drive (which is sda) and it will give you option to boot MS Windows or Ubuntu.
[12:36] <marekw2143> hello, uname -a gives following output: Linux marek-ThinkPad-R61e 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:50 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux. Do then when I would like to develop simple kernel modules (implemented as char devices) is it enough to install linux-source-2.6.38 package and build those sources to link them to the moudle I'd like to develop?
[12:37] <Beumac> k, I couldn't figure out how to install grub =p
[12:38] <lolcat> What is the webstuff called? The GTK+ thing where programs can be showed on webpages?
[12:38] <hungryhubby> over the network i mean i dont have other users on my  network i have standalone desktop
[12:38] <usr13> marekw2143: I think what you need is build-essential
