[11:50] <snadge> i have a samba share that i cant write to, but if i call it anything other than "thumbnails" then it works
[11:50] <NotTooDumb2> how to know what's my NIC and how does that help to get internet working on ubuntu?
[11:50] <blitz> ledjo: you'll have to reinstall your dominant environment
[11:50] <miono> blitz: Same result, miono in both cases.
[11:50] <snadge> i have manually configured an entry for it in /etc/samba/smb.conf .. and at one point i attempted to create a share with ubuntu's right click sharing context menu
[11:50] <histo> NotTooDumb2: lspci
[11:50] <xuser1> http://img233.imageshack.us/i/fotografie0800.jpg/ any ideas?
[11:51] <xuser1> :-/
[11:51] <ledjo> thx blitz I'll try
[11:51] <miono> blitz: All environment-variables are the same, except for SSH_AUTH_SOCK
[11:51] <blitz> xuserl: can you not use the nvideo drivers?
[11:51] <lyrd> I am having huge resolv.conf problems.

[11:51] <NotTooDumb2> histo, is ethernet controller same as nic?
[11:51] <lyrd> I cant write, read, delete or anything else with it
[11:51] <xuser1> no the gui not starts
[11:52] <histo> NotTooDumb2: yes that is your wired connection
[11:52] <histo> NotTooDumb2: network adapter would be wireless if you have it present
[11:52] <blitz> xuserl: have you been able to use gdm before?
[11:52] <NotTooDumb2> histo, how am i supposed to debug? yeah i have network controller listed in lspci
[11:52] <xuser1> yes
[11:52] <blitz> snadge: create a new conf file for your samba share service
[11:53] <ghoul_> heya, is there something like the cpu-frequency applet that allows controlling all cpu's at the same time ? getting tedius with a quadcore+hyperthreading, had to add that applet 8 times
[11:53] <dagon666> how can I enable usb automount in linux server ?
[11:53] <xuser1> the startx command not work

[11:53] <COOLDOOD> hi can some one help me with the terminal sever clienet
[11:53] <COOLDOOD> please
[11:54] <blitz> lyrd: looks like the file may be corrupted or you may have a permission issue
[11:54] <PandoraGaming> i hope this isn't a flaming question lol but is ubuntu good for a server? or is it mainly just desktop use
[11:54] <histo> NotTooDumb2: does ifconfig show that you are getting an ipadress for that nic?
[11:54] <xuser1> i installed nvidia-curent from text mode nut the same error
[11:54] <Gryllida> COOLDOOD: Please just ask the question, include details so people can reply.
[11:54] <lyrd> blitz: yes i agree. But what can I do to fix it :-(
[11:54] <blitz> @lyrd: whoami
[11:55] <NotTooDumb2> ifconfig does show eth0 , i do not know if it's getting ip or not
[11:55] <histo> xuser1: you should be able to start the gui with the vesa driver or the nouveau driver
[11:55] <lyrd> blitz: it used to work, now however dns lookup does not work anymore. I am running a live usb if that matters
[11:55] <xuser1> ?
[11:55] <xuser1> what?
[11:55] <ledjo> blitz there is no xfce-desktop like lxde-desktop entry in synaptic..
[11:55] <histo> NotTooDumb2: it would say inet addr: ###.###.###.###
[11:56] <xuser1> i think the default is vesa
[11:56] <dr_willi1> ledjo:  its xubuntu-desktop i belive
[11:56] <vayavya_> histo, yes that line is there inet addr: <IP_ADDRESS> Bcast: Mask:
[11:56] <wardriver> Does anybody know a tool that outputs a sound when it finds an open wlan DURING WARDRIVING?
[11:56] <COOLDOOD> every time i enter the details for the remote computer it comes up with a message saying:  error:getaddinfo: name or service not known
[11:56] <histo> vayavya_: okay and you have not network access?
[11:56] <lyrd> blitz: whoami?
[11:57] <blitz> lyrd: in terminal, type that, check your user status.
[11:57] <vayavya_> for ubuntu system internet is not working, for windows machine it works
[11:57] <lyrd> blitz: all that comes up is ubuntu
[11:57] <ledjo> oh :) thx dr_willil
[11:57] <blitz> lyrd: su
[11:57] <histo> vayavya_: is the machine just receiving an ip via dhcp in windows?
[11:58] <vayavya_> histo, how to check that?
[11:58] <histo> vayavya_: how are you configuring the network in windows?
[11:58] <blitz> wardriver: there is no tool to play a sound instance based on monitor discovery
[11:58] <xuser1> can i enable the nouveau driver ?
[11:58] <xuser1> im on live cd?
[11:58] <histo> !nouveau | xuser1
[11:59] <ledjo> ok I'm going to rebbot now, whish me luck :)
[11:59] <lyrd> blitz: hmm I can't do su, get authentication failure. I can however do sudo anything
[11:59] <wardriver> blitz: What is the best way to find open wlans during driving then?
[11:59] <xuser1> can i enable it from live cd?
[11:59] <dr_willi1> wardriver:  i use my cellphone. :)
[11:59] <dr_willi1> xuser1:  that driver is the default for my nvidia systems when i use the live cd.
[12:00] <vayavya_> histo, no idea actually vendor configured in windows and he told he does not know about linux so i am trying..but i can check if you can kindly tel me where i can check that
[12:00] <blitz> lyrd: nano resolv.conf
[12:00] <blitz> wardriver: i use my cellphone as well :3
[12:00] <blitz> wardriver: but, open wlans? as in, unprotected?
[12:01] <histo> vayavya_: well boot the machine in windows and see if it gets the same type of ip address. ex: 14.xx.xxx. etc...
[12:01] <wardriver> blitz: yes unprotected
[12:01] <bazhang> wardriver, thats not an ubuntu support issue
[12:01] <blitz> lyrd: sorry,    terminal - sudo nano resolv.conf
[12:01] <lyrd> blitz: it says new file. I try to enter a nameserver but how do I save in nano, I have only ever used vi
[12:01] <histo> wardriver: kismet probably can be configured to accomplish that.
[12:01] <COOLDOOD> can some one help please
[12:02] <vayavya_> histo, yes ip address it's getting in windows case also is <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:02] <xuser1> i also cant start the failsafe mode thois is the xorg.conf.failsafe http://pastebin.com/vW6UjbXm
[12:02] <bazhang> COOLDOOD, patience
[12:02] <histo> wardriver: they have sounds for different things in the .conf
[12:02] <blitz> lyrd: its fine if you use vi, just sudo
[12:02] <wardriver> histo: which .conf?
[12:02] <histo> wardriver: kismet.conf
[12:02] <blitz> histo: is kismet even a logical alternative to anything in the aircrack suite?
[12:02] <xuser1> :-(
[12:03] <histo> blitz: I don't use aircrack suite so I wouldn't know.
[12:03] <wardriver> histo: I just installed kismet 10 minutes ago  but all I see is that wireshark was installed.
[12:03] <COOLDOOD> ok
[12:03] <wardriver> histo: HOw do I start and use kismet?
[12:03] <histo> wardriver: kismet is a console app doesn't have a gui
[12:03] <blitz> C00LD00D: what is your problem?
[12:03] <wardriver> histo:  ahh
[12:03] <xuser1> can i enable the nouveau driver for safemode?
[12:03] <histo> wardriver: most likely you have to edit the config before starting it.
[12:03] <xuser1> failsafex*
[12:04] <wardriver> histo: where is it located?
[12:04] <histo> vayavya_: how is this machine connected to the network? cable directly to a router/modem?
[12:04] <snadge> blitz: it doesn't appear to be the conf file thats the problem.. if i move the definition .. deleted it.. recreated it.. i can write to the share fine, if its called anything other than "thumbnails"
[12:04] <lyrd> blitz: yeah sudo vi first says permission denied at the bottom. If I still add a nameserver (to the empty file)  it says Warning: changing a readonly file. When I then save with override (w!) it says E212: Can't open file for writing
[12:04] <histo> wardriver: /etc/kismet*
[12:04] <vayavya_> histo, modem..
[12:04] <xuser1> ;-)
[12:04] <wardriver> histo: thx
[12:04] <xuser1> can i enable the nouveau driver for safemode?
[12:04] <vayavya_> i mean through cable to modem
[12:04] <ledjo> didn' work I reinstalled everything that has to do with xfce or xubuntu, I reinstalled gnome display manager, and it still fails to start it at sartup..
[12:04] <xuser1> can i enable the nouveau driver for safemode?
[12:04] <blitz> lyrd: you know how to use chmod?
[12:04] <histo> wardriver: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/kismet-an-802-11-wireless-network-detector-sniffer-and-intrusion-detection-system.html#more-1776
[12:05] <histo> xuser1: yes
[12:05] <lyrd> blitz, limited yes... like normal 777 or so :-)
[12:05] <xuser1> so?
[12:05] <blitz> lyrd: :3
[12:05] <histo> vayavya_: can you ping the gateway?
[12:05] <xuser1> whast should i do?
[12:05] <histo> vayavya_: or any other machiens on the network?
[12:05] <histo> xuser1: What are you trying to do exactly?
[12:05] <wardriver> histo: thx a lot
[12:05] <blitz> snadge: are you going through the gui to change the name of the directory?
[12:05] <vayavya_> i do not know how to ping gateway..from morning what i did was ip route gave some address and i can ping that address
[12:06] <snadge> from command line
[12:06] <lyrd> blitz: if I try to touch the file with chmod or anything else I get chmod: cannot access `resolv.conf': Input/output error
[12:06] <snadge> if i change the entry in smb.conf from [thumbnails] to anything else.. i can write to it.. its strange
[12:06] <wardriver> histo: the kismet.conf is completely empty.
[12:06] <xuser1> i cant start the GUI in safemode or normal moden can i edable the nouveau driver ?
[12:06] <sender> having problems with NVIDIA 8600GT on ubuntu 11.04, performance of compiz is very bad; did install latest drivers from NVIDIA website
[12:06] <blitz> lyrd: corrupted file, sadly. you'll have to reestablish that files existence :[
[12:06] <xuser1> at default
[12:06] <blitz> snadge: have you sudo/su?
[12:07] <wardriver> histo: sudo gedit /etc/kismet/kismet.conf ?
[12:07] <snadge> blitz: yes.. maybe i should try fsck?
[12:07] <lyrd> blitz: no worries. All I need is google nameservers, so two lines. don't need to save the file
[12:07] <xuser1> or can i start the gui withowt nvidia driver?
[12:07] <jpds> !gksudo | wardriver
[12:07] <lyrd> blitz: but how on earth can i do that?
[12:07] <lyrd> blitz: reestablish that is
[12:07] <snadge> but i moved where the share was and anything.. the problem appears to be there must be a conflict for the share name "thumbnails" but if i remove the definition.. it is not there anymore
[12:07] <histo> vayavya_: can you try traceroute <IP_ADDRESS> and pastebin the output
[12:07] <vayavya_> snadge, from commadline, by giving what command?
[12:08] <histo> wardriver: yeah or insert editor of your choice.
[12:08] <snadge> vi /etc/samba/smb.conf .. changed the name of the share in there.. restarted smbd and nmbd
[12:08] <vayavya_> ya traceroute is not installed on ubuntu and now no connection to install that, i tried tracepath
[12:08] <blitz> snadge: fsck might work, could be some physical memory lapses between virt and phys memory. overlapping bytes and such. i would suggest starting a separate folder and trying the same things
[12:08] <blitz> lyrd: where did the file come from?
[12:08] <snadge> then i tried moving the share from /Thumbnails to /mnt/thumbnails (where the other shares are which work fine)
[12:08] <vayavya_> histo, ya traceroute is not installed on ubuntu and now no connection to install that, i tried tracepath
[12:08] <Wisien> who knows 3d graphics  software for linux?
[12:09] <snadge> that made no difference.. its almost as if samba refuses to allow you to write to a share called "thumbnails" for some bizarre inexplicable reason
[12:09] <cypha> does postgresql come pre-installed in ubuntu?
[12:09] <lyrd> blitz: this is a ubuntu live usb created with pendrive from windows. using the 11.04 image. It all worked great for a day or so too, just stopped... about the time that i set a blank password on the default keyring
[12:09] <cypha> or ubuntu server?
[12:09] <jpds> cypha: No.
[12:09] <cypha> jpds, how do I install postgre then?
[12:10] <jpds> cypha: Why force a database server on everyone when they should be free to choose?
[12:10] <blitz> snadge: thumbnails header for actual gui thumbnails, cant use it because its already taken as a system folder :3
[12:10] <histo> vayavya_: yeah tracepath should work. It will show you your ip then first hop should be to the gateway then outside world
[12:10] <cypha> true
[12:10] <claviusmond> who here uses icecast? I have compiled it from source, configure, make, sudo make install, but when I click the blue romboid, nothing happens
[12:10] <jpds> cypha: sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.4
[12:11] <cypha> jpds, what about pip install postgresql-8.4 /
[12:11] <lyrd> blitz: but as far as I can see all I need is two lines with two nameservers in that file <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> and i should be all good. So not a problem if I cant replace it with original. as long as I can force a new file into it's location I would be happy
[12:11] <_ropak_> Wisien: maybe blender
[12:11] <jpds> cypha: What is pip?
[12:11] <snadge> blitz: so the short answer is.. with windows or samba.. you cant use the share name "thumbnails" ?
[12:11] <cypha> virtualenv
[12:11] <cypha> well, python
[12:11] <jpds> cypha: Why use that when you have apt-get which is what the rest of the system uses?
[12:11] <blitz> snadge: wait, you're transferring between two different os's?
[12:12] <blitz> lyrd: what does typing su in the terminal respond with?
[12:12] <wardriver> histo: There are a few sound options in the conf file. But which open would enable a sound when an unprotected WLAN is found?
[12:12] <Soothsayer> Anyone knows who to send pidgin to tray on minimization ?
[12:12] <Soothsayer> and not have it in the window list in the taskbar
[12:12] <cypha> jpds, true
[12:12] <histo> wardriver: idk you'd have to read through the options. I don't hav ethe config infront of me.
[12:12] <cypha> jpds, how do I find out the latest version available?
[12:13] <COOLDOOD> can i hane some help please
[12:13] <NotTooDumb2> histo, tracepath <IP_ADDRESS> says 1. username time 2. <IP_ADDRESS> time 3. same as 2 and from 4 onwards no reply
[12:13] <Someguy2> Hello
[12:13] <lyrd> blitz: it does respond with a password prompt. but it refuses the only password i have ever entered it into the system. the password i enter is the same i enter for some sudo commands (altho funnily enough most sudo commands dont ask for passwords - not timeout related)
[12:13] <histo> wardriver: there is kismet_ui.conf as well.
[12:13] <jpds> cypha: apt-cache show postgresql | grep "^Version"
[12:13] <Someguy2> Can anyone help me with an IRC Client with Ubuntu?
[12:14] <COOLDOOD> v
[12:14] <asdjaputra> !ask
[12:14] <snadge> blitz: it doesnt matter if the client is windows or ubuntu.. it cant create a file in a share called thumbnails
[12:14] <blitz> try the standards, "root", "toor", or make a new pass sudo passwd root
[12:14] <bazhang> COOLDOOD, ask a clear question, lots of details, on a single line.
[12:14] <dagon666> what should I use to be able to automount usb disks in ubuntu server ?
[12:14] <Someguy2> How can i install GNOME 3 in Ubuntu Server?
[12:14] <cypha> jpds, there's supposed to be a version 9
[12:14] <cypha> i only see 8.4 thoug
[12:15] <histo> dagon666: are you running a Desktop Environment on the server or just command line?
[12:15] <bazhang> Someguy2, its unsupported here. there's a PPA but it breaks things. best to steer clear
[12:15] <jpds> cypha: Yes, the Ubuntu archives are frozen after a release and only security updates and bug-fixes are uploaded to them after that.
[12:15] <Someguy2> How about X Destop?
[12:15] <bazhang> !gnome3 > Someguy2
[12:15] <jpds> cypha: Never new features.
[12:15] <dagon666> histo: no X's
[12:15] <lyrd> blitz: I set a new password and then su worked like a charm
[12:15] <jpds> cypha: Postgres 9 will probably be in 11.10.
[12:15] <blitz> snadge: i would understand if only on windows you couldnt, because you have .db files for thumbs and thumbnail secret unlisted folders that pertain to pictures only.
[12:16] <bazhang> Someguy2, ubuntu-desktop lubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop etc
[12:16] <Someguy2> Kubuntu Looks beautiful
[12:16] <lyrd> blitz: whoami now returns root
[12:16] <szal> Someguy2: (1) what does Gnome 3 have to do w/ an IRC client?  (2) what do you want w/ Gnome 3 on a server?
[12:16] <Guest58977> WaNtEd|MuSiC|002
[12:16] <blitz> lyrd: try "fsck", then try to su change the .conf file
[12:17] <PandoraGaming> i reinstalled kubuntu but it still giving me the netbook desktop how do i get the origional kde desktop
[12:17] <Someguy2> Im not used into a command line
[12:17] <jpds> cypha: Et voila, it is: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-9.0
[12:17] <histo> dagon666: what version of ubuntu?
[12:17] <bazhang> PandoraGaming, kubuntu-desktop chosen from login or install it and then choose there
[12:17] <blitz> lyrd: great news!
[12:17] <bazhang> PandoraGaming, whoops kde4 chosen from login
[12:17] <dagon666> histo: does it matter ? I can compile from sources if needed
[12:18] <szal> Someguy2: then get used to it, there's not likely a way around it if you really want to _use_ it as a server
[12:18] <cypha> jpds, what do I do with that?
[12:18] <lyrd> blitz: what's great news?
[12:18] <jpds> cypha: Nothing.
[12:18] <lyrd> blitz: I tried to comply with your previous instructions, but not sure i fully got them right
[12:18] <histo> dagon666: well they stopped auto mounting in server with their versions of hal/dbus but I believe you can install the usbmount package and all should be happy.
[12:18] <Someguy2> Is Ubuntu 11.10 beta out?
[12:18] <blitz> lyrd: what did you type?
[12:18] <cypha> jpds, how do I manually compile it?
[12:18] <szal> Someguy2: -> #ubuntu+1
[12:18] <jpds> cypha: If you want 9.0, you have to compile from source, but you won't get any security updates from Ubuntu for that.
[12:19] <lyrd> first fsck *enter
[12:19] <lyrd> then just vi /etc/resolv.conf *enter
[12:19] <lyrd> as I was su already
[12:19] <histo> dagon666: atleast that's supposed to be the point of that package to add that functionality back to the server edition.
[12:19] <dagon666> histo: I already tried that - there are major problems with providing access to all users
[12:19] <lyrd> blitz: with the same result
[12:19] <cypha> jpds, i'm on ubuntu server. will the update to 11.10 upgrade postgresql to 9 as well?
[12:19] <NotTooDumb2> histo, what could i infer from tracepath output?
[12:19] <blitz> lyrd: have you seen the contents of this file before?
[12:20] <histo> NotTooDumb2: what the gateway is and try and ping that.
[12:20] <histo> NotTooDumb2: and possibly where the problem is
[12:20] <dagon666> I was wondering if there is any better alternative
[12:20] <histo> dagon666: well maybe change the options
[12:20] <lyrd> blitz: nopes I never knew about it until dns stopped working and I google how to set dns's and i realized it was corrupt
[12:20] <jpds> cypha: Yes, but don't do that.
[12:20] <histo> dagon666: i'm assuming that package just reconfigures dbus.
[12:20] <jpds> cypha: As 11.10 is still in active development.
[12:20] <lyrd> blitz: because everything was working for a day afetr install, and also i am a linux noob
[12:20] <histo> dagon666: or udev
[12:21] <cypha> jpds, should I just stick with postgre 8.4 ?
[12:21] <blitz> lyrd: do you know how to uninstall things?
[12:21] <PandoraGaming> at the login i have KDE Plasma Workspace but that just opens the kde netbook desktop.
[12:21] <dagon666> histo: I already played around with umask,gid,user options for mount, the problem was that it resets the permissions on the mountpoint back to root
[12:21] <lyrd> blitz: with apt-get i think i could manage. otherwise, not so much
[12:21] <histo> dagon666: check under /etc/udev/rules.d/
[12:22] <jpds> cypha: Would probably be the best thing for now, unless there's a feature you really need in 9.0.
[12:22] <blitz> use these, one after the other.
[12:22] <vayavya_> histo, gateway is pinging fine...what should i check later?
[12:22] <dagon666> histo: yeah, I'll play around
[12:22] <blitz> lyrd: sudo apt-get remove resolvconf
[12:22] <histo> vayavya_: do you know the ip of your dns server?
[12:22] <blitz> lyrd: sudo apt-get update
[12:23] <blitz> lyrd: sudo apt-get install resolvconf
[12:23] <histo> dagon666: you should be able to configure the rule to whatever options you want.
[12:23] <COOLDOOD> could some one please help me
[12:23] <jpds> !help | COOLDOOD
[12:24] <KolakCC> How can I show grub when the timeout is on 0?
[12:24] <histo> dagon666: i'm not sure how the ubuntu-devs have smashed those files though. Atleast I can in arch. I'll give you a link to their wiki for some direction. The exact filename for the .rules won't be the same but will give you some guidance.
[12:24] <cypha> jpds, cool, i'll stick with 8.4, thanks
[12:24] <histo> dagon666: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev#Auto_mounting_USB_devices
[12:24] <jpds> KolakCC: Hold down the shift key while it loads after the BIOS.
[12:24] <lyrd> blitz: it said that resolvconf was not installed when i tried to remove. update does not work since it needs a dns to look up ubuntu.com
[12:24] <dagon666> histo: ok, thanks
[12:24] <PandoraGaming> at the login i have KDE Plasma Workspace but that just opens the kde netbook desktop.
[12:24] <KolakCC> jpds: I'm doing that, however it still skips it over
[12:25] <Someguy2> I tried to enable cube desktop in ubuntu but it got bricked
[12:25] <blitz> lyrd: i would highly suggest just using a fresh live boot rather than fiddling with replacing files
[12:25] <histo> vayavya_: then you would want to ping something outside the gateway. Like the DNS server.  try cat /etc/resolv.conf
[12:25] <blitz> someguy2: might not be supported by your chipset or video card
[12:25] <histo> vayavya_: should list the nameservers there
[12:26] <Someguy2> I think Intel Integrated HD Does not support OpenGL
[12:26] <lyrd> blitz: well this one is almost fresh. I just installed the few apps I new like xbmc. and this file just got corrupt. is there no way I can just remove the very corrupt file and insert a new one there?
[12:26] <vayavya_> histo yes it's listing four namesevers..are they all dns servers?
[12:26] <ledjo> problem solved, I loged in as root in recovery mode session and then reinstalled gdm, et voillà jetztt ist alles wieder wunderbar!
[12:26] <ledjo> :)
[12:27] <wrek-gar> is there something that will display codec information on a media file?
[12:27] <blitz> lyrd: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/resolvconf
[12:28] <blitz> ledjo: congrats bud!
[12:28] <KolakCC> How can I show grub when the timeout is on 0? It's autobooting to windows so I can't get to ubuntu now..
[12:28] <blitz> KolakCC: >jpds: hold down shift key
[12:28] <dw-> what would you use to make fancy borders around documents
[12:28] <KolakCC> blitz: > 13:24:20 [KolakCC] jpds: I'm doing that, however it still skips it over
[12:28] <ledjo> THANK YOU, blitz
[12:28] <ChaosSaber> KolakCC: is it dual booting with 2 drives or just one?
[12:28] <szal> dw-: what documents?
[12:29] <KolakCC> ChaosSaber: Just one
[12:29] <dw-> szal: like a one page document need a fancy border like for certificates
[12:29] <ChaosSaber> Ok and you're boot menu is it from ubuntu or windows?
[12:29] <szal> dw-: again, what documents?
[12:29] <Elirips> Hello all. I installed gnome3 from ppa within my 11.04. Unfortunately, when I choose session "gnome" from the login-manager, I get the error "Failed to load session gnome." Anyone an idea?
[12:29] <blitz> KolakCC: what os does it put you in?
[12:29] <KolakCC> Windows.. however it boots into grub which boots back into the windows loader @_@
[12:30] <KolakCC> And when I select ubuntu again it goes to grub and back to windows
[12:30] <dw-> szal: havent made em yet, TBD
[12:30] <NotTooDumb2> histo, dns server is not pinging..i tried pinging first one in the list
[12:30] <szal> dw-: a third time, what documents?
[12:30] <blitz> KolakCC: SuperGrubCD or Rescatux
[12:30] <KolakCC> ....sadface was hoping to avoid that
[12:30] <dw-> szal: nyfb? :p
[12:31] <ChaosSaber> KolakCC: I only know to change the boot time in windows
[12:31] <blitz> szal: uncalled for.
[12:31] <szal> dw-: ?
[12:31] <PandoraGaming> at the login i have KDE Plasma Workspace but that just opens the kde netbook desktop.
[12:31] <ChaosSaber> but not sure about ubuntu, I am still a noob
[12:31] <szal> blitz: ?
[12:31] <blitz> oh, my bad. lol. directed at dw-
[12:31] <blitz> KolakCC: sometimes thats the only option if something happens in the bootloader.
[12:32] <dw-> blitz: seriously waste of time q's
[12:32] <PandoraGaming> at the login i have KDE Plasma Workspace but that just opens the kde netbook desktop how do i get it to open the origional kde desktop :-)
[12:32] <dw-> i need an app that makes fancy borders
[12:32] <blitz> dw-: its a request to know what type of files they are. not the contents of the documents.
[12:32] <dw-> blitz: so i said to be determiend - any format
[12:33] <ChaosSaber> so KolakCC needs to change their boot time in ubuntu
[12:33] <dw-> ubuntu failz borders :[
[12:33] <Benkinooby> hi
[12:33] <KolakCC> The thing is, I can see the "GRUB booting up"... but shift doesn't make it show
[12:34] <KolakCC> I just want to see the boot menu, once, so i can change the settings
[12:34] <NotTooDumb2> how to do dns flush and does that help if i can ping router, gateway but not dns server?
[12:34] <KolakCC> Sigh, going to go grab a rescue disk then
[12:34] <blitz> dw-: from what it looks like, you may have to create it by hand.
[12:34] <ChaosSaber> how did it get set to 0?
[12:35] <KolakCC> ChaosSaber: I, uh, set it to 0. :(
[12:35] <lyrd> blitz: sadly installing the package failed with the same IO error when it tried to reach the file
[12:35] <szal> lol
[12:35] <ChaosSaber> how?
[12:35] <KolakCC> bootupmanager or something of the like
[12:35] <dw-> blitz: maybe i can wine Word :D
[12:35] <ChaosSaber> so run that again and change it to like 5-10
[12:35] <ChaosSaber> or you can't boot into ubuntu now?
[12:35] <KolakCC> ChaosSaber: I would, but it's an ubuntu application
[12:35] <blitz> dw-: thats a plan, actually, most m$ office supplies work in wine
[12:36] <szal> KolakCC: grab a live CD, edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg to change the timeout to a value other than 0, then boot the system, set that value in /etc/default/grub and run 'sudo update-grub'
[12:36] <veer> how do I restore original theme in ubuntu 11.04?
[12:36] <blitz> lyrd: sudo rm resolv.conf?
[12:36] <szal> .oO( dw- doesn't seem to have heard of LibreOffice yet.. )
[12:37] <dw-> yea i got it the borders are just solid lines
[12:37] <wrek-gar> is there a program which will display codec information on a media file?
[12:37] <lyrd> blitz: I will try in a while, now i tried a forcefsck and rebooted the machine. once it's back i will try
[12:37] <histo> NotTooDumb2: make sure you can ping the nameservers
[12:37] <dw-> szal: and have to make a table to even add them...
[12:37] <histo> NotTooDumb2: that is the problem then
[12:37] <bazhang> wrek-gar, right click properties
[12:37] <histo> NotTooDumb2: but you can't ping <IP_ADDRESS> either?
[12:37] <dw-> I guess I could design in GIMP it probably has something
[12:38] <blitz> szal: i was never able to get libreoffice to work any more than being very very slow sadly
[12:38] <wrek-gar> has anyone ever used kdenlive to upload videos to youtube?
[12:38] <histo> NotTooDumb2: the problem is if you don't know how your network is coinfigured. I'm not sure anyone is going to be able to help you configure it with any OS
[12:38] <Guest22532> what is this file? /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0?? i do not have this file on my ubuntu..
[12:39] <blitz> 22532: ethernet config file
[12:39] <histo> NotTooDumb2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25557
[12:39] <histo> NotTooDumb2: follow that link
[12:39] <clock> Hi all
[12:39] <claviusmond> what commands do I need to run icecast?
[12:40] <clock> I would like to try if sound in Firefox, Skype, mplayer and arecord works in Ubuntu at the same time, without installing Ubuntu on my PC
[12:40] <clock> is this possible with the Live CD?
[12:40] <blitz> clock: yes
[12:40] <xxmmaann> im back / i instaled the nvidia 275 form nvidia site and now i cant remove it end install the driver using sistem/admin/add.drivers
[12:40] <clock> cool :)
[12:40] <histo> clock: yes
[12:40] <io> claviusmond: read the manual
[12:40] <xxmmaann> i want remove it because is not well suported and i cant play anu games
[12:41] <lyrd> blitz: sudo rm resolv,conf leads to normal input/output error
[12:41] <wardriver> histo:  I have set the source to: source=BCM4727,eth1,Broadcom
[12:41] <blitz> lyrd: sudo rm -f resolv.conf
[12:42] <wardriver> histo: but I am getting Unknown capture source type 'BCM4727' in source 'BCM4727,eth1,Broadcom' Done.
[12:42] <lyrd> blitz: same IO err
[12:42] <histo> wardriver: looking at other peoples configs I think the alert sound is what you want or something similar. I'm not sure it's been a while since i've used kismet
[12:42] <szal> xxmmaann: your fault if you took the driver from nvidia.com when there's better-manageable options around :P ..  'sudo nvidia-installer --uninstall' should get you rid of it
[12:42] <histo> wardriver: there is a readme that shows different sources what to put.
[12:43] <xxmmaann> if i remove this driver i cant start ubuntu in graphic mode
[12:43] <blitz> lyrd: ls -il resolv.conf
[12:44] <lyrd> blitz: what I just tried :-)  I get ls: cannot access resolve.conf: No such file or directory
[12:44] <blitz> lyrd: right, it doesnt exist...
[12:44] <Guest22532> histo, thank you for the link, i am following that link, netstat -nr does not give any output ips on my ubuntu...does that mean i must set a default gateway?
[12:45] <histo> Guest22532: I have no idea how your network is supposed to be configured.
[12:45] <lyrd> blitz: it seems that way because it has a questionmark for indode number. however if I do a ls -la or similar it still gets listed. but with questionmarks for everything
[12:45] <xxmmaann> i removed it
[12:45] <Guest22532> histo, in general, are any ips supposed to appear when we type netstat -nr?
[12:46] <blitz> lyrd: false files and directories are a sign of bad blocks on the drive. or disk in your case.
[12:46] <histo> Guest22532: my gateway shows up when I do that.
[12:46] <blitz> lyrd: means you have to use a new image. :[
[12:46] <Guest22532> oh.ok then i wil set a default gateway
[12:46] <ledjo> I would like to test other distros on my old satellite notebook but cd rom drive doesn't work since a month ago and usb boot is not supported by bios, so I installed unetbootin, downloaded alternate distro cd image (says in netbootin when booting from hdd), netbootin 'mounted' or whatever the image on the hdd, I then rebooted as told and started netbootin at grub but it still asks for cd after language and keyboard settings at the
[12:46] <ledjo> install begin :(
[12:47] <lyrd> blitz: dang. it's a usb3 thumb drive. should I be worried about the usb stick?
[12:47] <blitz> lyrd: no, its probably an issue with how you copied the image to the drive
[12:47] <rhin0> I got ubuntu working fine on an ssd (simple)
[12:48] <rhin0> is great 10x faster
[12:48] <lyrd> blitz: I just used the app pendrive. and it worked great for like a day or so.
[12:48] <lyrd> blitz: how would you install it, the machine has no harddrive. only this usb stick that I want everything to run off
[12:48] <blitz> rhin0: noticed that too, backtrack works like a charm
[12:49] <blitz> lyrd: pendrive usually works, i would say try it again. this time you know how to configure certain things. always keep a backup of problem files somewhere just in case.
[12:49] <rhin0> its like the move from cassette tape to cds (mechanical hard drives to SSDs) - anyway enough OT
[12:49] <lyrd> blitz: okay, cool. I will have another go at it ^^
[12:49] <blitz> ledjo: bad netbootin copy, try it again. common problem, happened to me too.
[12:49] <lyrd> blitz: A big thanks for all the help
[12:50] <blitz> lyrd: no problem, happy to help.
[12:50] <patientFinder> is it possible to reinstall ubuntu without altering /home directory?
[12:50] <blitz> patientFinder: the most you could do is swap the kernel out from under it.
[12:51] <_stephan> Has anyone managed to compile gcc 4.6.1 on Ubuntu Natty?
[12:51] <szal> patientFinder: if you have /home on a separate partition, yes
[12:51] <patientFinder> blitz: so that's a no?
[12:51] <ledjo> blitz, what do u mean reinstall netbootin or use another image or just do unetbootin thing again?
[12:51] <bazhang> !home | patientFinder
[12:51] <bazhang> patientFinder, sure you can. the cd should have an option not to overwrite personal directory
[12:52] <blitz> ledjo: yes, its a common problem with unetbootin as it doesnt get updated very often. bad mounting process sometimes.
[12:52] <bazhang> patientFinder, or you can move it, as per the link above. always have backups however
[12:52] <patientFinder> ubottu: id check that link out.
[12:52] <bazhang> patientFinder, ubottu is a bot
[12:52] <ledjo> so just repeat mounting with the same image?
[12:53] <lyrd> blitz: I thought I would redownload the image. would you recomend the 64bit or 32bit version? It's running on a atom/ion htpc
[12:53] <vayavya_> after i give auto eth0       iface eth0 inet dhcp in my /etc/network/interfaces, am i again supposed to give addresses for gateway etc.,?
[12:53] <bazhang> ledjo, mount to use as an installer?
[12:53] <patientFinder> bazhang: hehe.. thanks
[12:53] <blitz> ledjo: yes, if it happens again, redownload or find a new image
[12:53] <blitz> lyrd: 64 bit for home theater, always. or 32 if you need more things to be compatible.
[12:53] <patientFinder> bazhang: so the idea is to create a partition, move my /home there then reinstall..
[12:54] <bazhang> patientFinder, one option, yes
[12:54] <ledjo> ok thx blitz
[12:54] <ledjo> thats right, bazhang
[12:54] <vayavya_> after i give auto eth0       iface eth0 inet dhcp in my /etc/network/interfaces, am i again supposed to give addresses for gateway etc.,? any help for me?
[12:55] <patientFinder> bazhang: are you aware of other options? as it is, i have everything in one partition
[12:55] <bazhang> patientFinder, only ubuntu? or dual boot with windows
[12:56] <th0r> vayavya_: I think that is all you need in interfaces
[12:57] <gerson> bom dia
[12:57] <lyrd> blitz: I have another question actually. I entered a windows mount in fstab and it worked great. but it seems on live usb linux the fstab is reset on every boot. So is there a way to make fstab persistant or otherwise a way to mount my windows share on boot?
[12:57] <vayavya_> th0r, i am going mad in making internet to work on ubuntu..i really do not get what to check next
[12:57] <patientFinder> bazhang: only ubuntu. I use nothing else.
[12:57] <erlongshan> hello,everybody
[12:57] <bazhang> !br | gerson
[12:57] <th0r> vayavya_: is this wireless?
[12:57] <vayavya_> no it is wired
[12:57] <blitz> lyrd: unfortunately since you are using a live image, no.
[12:58] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[12:58] <th0r> vayavya_: that should be all you need. Are you running a desktop or a server?
[12:58] <vayavya_> same connection works in case of windows, might be some configurations missing on ubuntu
[12:58] <vayavya_> th0r, desktop
[12:58] <rhin0> vayavya_:  have you checked your wireless card is compatible with ubuntu -- otherwise you can wrap a windows driver using "ndiswrapper"
[12:58] <rhin0> most wireless cards are compatible with ubuntu
[12:58] <rhin0> tell me the name of your wireless card
[12:58] <bazhang> rhin0, this is wired hes talking about
[12:58] <blitz> lyrd: actually, im having a serious lapse of memory right now due to lack of sleep, yes of course its possible. sorry.
[12:59] <vayavya_> rhin0, i am trying to make wired connection work, not wireless connection
[12:59] <rhin0> ok your broadband card
[12:59] <th0r> vayavya_: then interfaces won't help much. As soon as you log into a desktop network mangler will take over...so you probably need to comment out interfaces and get nm working. I had to do that just a week ago when I installed debian
[12:59] <vayavya_> rhin0, how to check my broadband card? what is the command?
[12:59] <lyrd> blitz: cool  :-)   sleep deprivation is the best
[12:59] <rhin0> ok vayavya_: you need to tell us the name of your broadband card
[12:59] <rhin0> lspci
[12:59] <rhin0> type lspci | less
[12:59] <bazhang> vayavya_, paste.ubuntu.com with output of lspci ifconfig and sudo dhclient eth0    and give us the url
[12:59] <gerson> ola

[13:00] <blitz> lyrd: sure is, i've been living off of monster energy drinks and cocaine for the past week.
[13:00] <bazhang> blitz, drop the drug talk here
[13:00] <alex__> lul
[13:00] <blitz> bazhang: its an energy drink...
[13:01] <alex__> he's obviously referring to the cocaine you mentioned
[13:01] <alex__> ....................
[13:01] <rhin0> coca cola was that originally
[13:01] <blitz> >cocaine energy drink, it exists.
[13:01] <lyrd> blitz: brilliant!  any chance of figuring out how to make it work too, i google the hell out of it before but no matter what i did fstab was reset
[13:01] <gerson> chao nao
[13:01] <TNRR2012> is there a good place to find a detailed guide for compiz in the Ubuntu 11.04 environment?  thanx
[13:01] <oCean> !ot
[13:01] <_stephan> Another try: Is anyone using gcc 4.6.1 on Natty?
[13:01] <bazhang> gerson, english here, you've been asked twice now
[13:02] <rhin0> I would think any version of gcc should compile with natty _stephan -- maybe you have a separate problem to gcc -- what is the message you get when it doesn't compile?
[13:02] <rhin0> gcc is fundamental
[13:03] <_stephan> cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile in the middle of the build
[13:03] <naufragoweb> olha eu acho que nao....
[13:03] <_stephan> "cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile" in the middle of the build
[13:03] <rhin0> well _stephan: get the output into pastebin and show it to people here
[13:04] <rhin0> when you try to compile it -- cut the output out of the bash shell session (scroll back through all of it) and copy it into the website pastebin -- then you can post the url here so people can look at it _stephan
[13:05] <blitz> lyrd: what editor are you using to edit fstab?
[13:06] <usc911> anyone tried steam on ubuntu? just having a look at it, not really much of a gamer but i'm having a pretty lazy day :)
[13:06] <gerson> olha ate da para voce usar no ubuntu
[13:06] <szal> _stephan: why would you want that anyway?
[13:06] <szal> !pt | gerson
[13:06] <lyrd> I was using a graphical one, default double click action. whenever i tried in vi i would do weird stuff like type charachters when i moved around with cursor keys
[13:06] <_stephan> rhin0: one issue was that gcc 4.6.1 needs libppl0.11-dev and libcloog-ppl-dev, but libcloog-ppl-dev depends on libppl0.10-dev, which conflicts with the 0.11 version
[13:06] <blitz> try using nano
[13:06] <rhin0> thats always the case _stephan -- multiple dependencies
[13:07] <gerson> nao
[13:07] <rhin0> the case with a problem -- you need to install all the packages it says its dependent on -- many will be available through the synaptic package manager
[13:07] <bazhang> gerson, thats enough. english here.
[13:07] <_stephan> rhin0: in this case there is no way to resolve the dependencies with builtin packages, so I built libcloog myself
[13:07] <lyrd> blitz: will do, when I have reinstalled. I tried setting the immutable bit on it... but chattr just said someting about failing when it looked at some bits.
[13:08] <lyrd> blitz: when i google that it said that was most likely due to the file being in ram only... but if thats the case then i dont know how to reach the original
[13:08] <BluesKaj> bazhang, don't think he understands any english
[13:08] <rhin0> _stephan I don't get it would have thought gcc was "always there" on any ubuntu distro
[13:08] <rhin0> I just typed gcc here in 10.04 here (is there)
[13:08] <_stephan> of course it is.... but not gcc 4.6.1
[13:08] <bazhang> BluesKaj, he had the !pt at least 3 times.
[13:08] <claviusmond> where does ubuntu install icecast2 by default?
[13:08] <_stephan> which is the latest and greates
[13:08] <_stephan> t
[13:09] <bazhang> BluesKaj, which is in Portuguese.
[13:09] <BluesKaj> bazhang, a brazilian troll
[13:09] <rhin0> _stephan if you need to find help to install the "latest and greatest" version of gcc you obviously aren't able to use gcc
[13:09] <_stephan> huh?
[13:09] <rhin0> not sure what you are trying to do _stephan do you need it to compile something
[13:10] <bazhang> _stephan, why do you need the latest. please clarify
[13:10] <dr_willi1> you could use the 'sudo apt-get build-dep PACKAGENAME' to pull in needed dependencies.. that might 'help'
[13:10] <_stephan> because of the improved c++0x support, I only need it for my own projects...
[13:10] <bazhang> _stephan, then look at what dr_willi1 suggested just now
[13:11] <szal> _stephan: there's a build of gcc 4.6.0 in the Ubuntu Toolchain PPA
[13:11] <dr_willi1> or was it build-deps  , one or the other will pull in all needed dev packages.  makes compiling new versions easier.
[13:11] <_stephan> I already installed the build-dep for gcc-4.5... but that didn't help, and it also doesn't resolve the libcloog issue (though building my own libcloog seems to work))
[13:12] <szal> _stephan: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gcc-4.6
[13:13] <blitz> lyrd: have you tried sudo nano fstab?
[13:13] <_stephan> There's probably also a debian package for gcc 4.6.1 somewhere... but getting it into natty without  breaking anything probably isn't simple...
[13:13] <lyrd> blitz: i just reinstalled the usb drive :-) I will try now
[13:13] <szal> _stephan: do you read me?
[13:14] <_stephan> szal: yes, I'll try that. I take it that gcc-4.6 will be installed in parallel and won't become the default?
[13:14] <NotTooDumb2> bazhang, here are the outputs http://paste.ubuntu.com/637458/
[13:14] <szal> _stephan: as for the 'default' part I don't know, but it does get installed in parallel; Natty comes w/ gcc-4.4 and gcc-4.5 by default
[13:15] <blitz> lyrd: im probably going to go pass out for a few decades. make whatever changes you need to make in the files. always remember to reboot after doing such. if you encounter problems later on, redownload the image.
[13:15] <szal> _stephan: and if the pkg does change the default, you should be able to fix that w/ update-alternatives
[13:16] <bazhang> NotTooDumb2, whats the issue? you got a lease
[13:16] <NotTooDumb2> i can ping gateway, but not dns server or <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:16] <bazhang> NotTooDumb2, you using a proxy then?
[13:16] <_stephan> szal: thanks, but I get "Unable to locate package gcc-4.6"
[13:16] <lyrd> blitz: well the image is new on it now already. so will try the fstab stuff now
[13:17] <szal> _stephan: hmm..  you didn't forget the 'apt-get update', did you?
[13:17] <_stephan> no
[13:17] <NotTooDumb2> bazhang, i do not what is a proxy infact..i just tried them in process of debugging
[13:18] <usc911> anyone tried steam on linux? I have no optical drive so I cannot install a game from a DVD
[13:19] <szal> _stephan: then I don't know
[13:19] <histo> usc911: yeah many have
[13:19] <_stephan> thanks anyway
[13:19] <bazhang> !steam | usc911
[13:19] <blitz> usc911: it works just fine
[13:19] <usc911> cool I shall give it a go
[13:19] <histo> usc911: use wine http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=19444
[13:20] <usc911> that looks pretty successful
[13:20] <cordoval> how to find out that my live cd is 64 bit ubuntu 11.04?
[13:21] <blitz> usc911: counter strike? :3
[13:21] <bazhang> cordoval, uname -r
[13:21] <usc911> haha! dunno
[13:21] <usc911> im not  abig gamer
[13:21] <usc911> just bored
[13:21] <computerx> Hi, I need to recover a disk image I created with dd if=/dev/sdc. It's ext4 but got a bad sector 1.1mb in which seems to have broken the "superblock"? I can't even fsck it. Any suggestions?
[13:21] <cordoval> oh I should have done that before I reboot
[13:21] <cordoval> now I have to go in again
[13:21] <cordoval> and then try installing
[13:21] <cordoval> hmm
[13:21] <cordoval> can I install with a command from live cd?
[13:21] <FloodBot1> cordoval: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:21] <cordoval> so I don't have to reboot again?
[13:22] <blitz> usc911: i highly suggest it. so fun. other recommendations would be team fortress, half life and gmod.

[13:59] <cracoucas> stevenR I have a web interface from my hoster telling me it is at 100%
[13:59] <jfcaron1> Sometimes my sound just randomly stops working, but rebooting always fixes it.  I tried all the suggestions on the Ubuntu Sound Troubleshooting page, but nothing worked.  Any idea what could be causing it?  10.04 LTS on an eeepc 700.

[14:02] <Lanlost> Hello, I know it is possible to mount an FTP locatkon as a folder.. but talked to a friend the oher day who said that he mounted it as like a "drive" that showed up in the fileystem
[14:02] <StevenR> cracoucas: sorry, just balancing irc with cooking. My response will be slow for the next 10 mins or so. Why do you suspect it's java? What have you changed recently on the server?
[14:02] <cracoucas> my disk has been full to 99% this morning
[14:03] <Lanlost> and that it showed up  like one. The kicker is that he said this was built into Ubuntu,  As in there is a gui way to do this.. Anyoen have any idea what they meant/
[14:03] <cracoucas> I erased some data to go back to 90%
[14:03] <cracoucas> but lighttpd wasn't working at all , so I restarted the server and now it hangs
[14:03] <Gryllida> Lanlost: http://www.junauza.com/2011/03/mount-ftp-location-on-your-local-linux.html seems similar.
[14:03] <cracoucas> stevenR in rescue mode I do not understand anything
[14:04] <bazhang> !enter | cracoucas
[14:04] <Gryllida> Lanlost: Map it to a directory and then 'mount' it to have it show up as a drive by the looks of it.
[14:04] <BluesKaj> !samba | Lanlost
[14:05] <cracoucas> bazhang why do you write my nick ?
[14:05] <bazhang> cracoucas, your overuse of the enter key. it makes reading you r issue very hard to understand
[14:06] <cracoucas> ok bazhang
[14:06] <szal> !it | MAC_, maybe you can get better help there, you don't seem to be able to make yourself understood here
[14:06] <Lanlost> BluesKaj, I know what samba is
[14:07] <Lanlost> that's how I would previously do something like this
[14:07] <rahin88> anyone tried archlinux here ?
[14:07] <bazhang> rahin88, try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:07] <Lanlost> It's my original xbox I'm trying to do this for. It can connect to windows shared folders via samba, but I don't think it can serve them
[14:09] <Lanlost> it does, however, have FTP support. I can connect fine via a client. I'm more curious because I told him "sure, just moun it via FTP" and proceeded to give him links to curlftpfs when he said "no, no.. I found it
[14:09] <cutout> how can i install new styles on kde desktop?
[14:09] <StevenR> cracoucas: ok. so how do you access the server in rescue mode?
[14:10] <StevenR> cracoucas: I'm trying to understand what you have available to you.
[14:10] <Lanlost> I asked him what he found, expecting samba or something, and he said "I just went to ________________________", (something like "add external connection/add network drive_, "and that worked fine. Now it shows up as a drive, not just a folder"
[14:11] <Lanlost> that's basically how the conversation went
[14:11] <cracoucas> can we talk in private stevenr?
[14:11] <StevenR> cracoucas: no, because here you get the benefit of more knowledge :)
[14:12] <cracoucas> stevenR I access the server in rescu mode through SSH after setting a rescue mode reboot on my hoster web interface
[14:12] <StevenR> ok
[14:13] <jwagstaff> i am trying to do some video conversions with ffmpeg but i am getting an error that libmp3lame doesn't exisit.  i know it is installed with another package (mplayer).  what can I do to resolve this issue?

[14:38] <xch> My<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:38] <xch> thanks
[14:39] <bazhang> xch, you are welcome
[14:39] <teddyroosebelt> PoppaChubba, kewl ill take a look. i mainly need it just for user profile settings. i do know there are some in ~./config ill need aswell
[14:40] <cloudyLights> Ubuntu 11.04
[14:41] <grmrgecko> Can I get Ubuntu 11 to work on a Pentium 3?
[14:41] <cloudyLights> bazhang: I am trying to run the git version of evolution
[14:41] <rhin0> of course grmrgecko
[14:41] <grmrgecko> good
[14:41] <grmrgecko> then I am not trouble shooting for nothing.
 I ru in to this when trying to satisfy the ./configure
[14:42] <grmrgecko> It's a 600MHz with 256MB of ram.
[14:42] <lyrd> I have a live usb with persistance. I use fstab to mount i windows mount. however, every reboot and it resets the fstab and no windows mount happens. how can i either make fstab persistant or in other fashion make sure my mount happens on boot
[14:42] <grmrgecko> same specs of my iPod:P
[14:42] <cloudyLights> <PoppaChubba I had to install glib from git , as libglib wasnt current
[14:43] <szal> grmrgecko: unlikely..  if you're lucky you get it to run w/o X or w/ LXDE or some other light window manager, but certainly not w/ Gnome or KDE
[14:43] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, you may have gotten yourself into some dependency problems from doing that
[14:43] <cloudyLights> , so how to fix?
[14:43] <grmrgecko> szal: So then I'll give fedora or an older version of ubuntu a try
[14:44] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, you'll have to purge all those packages, then install them again
[14:44] <iniesta6> hi
[14:44] <grmrgecko> if I can't get kubuntu to work
[14:44] <cloudyLights> how to get glib 2.2.0 +?
[14:44] <lapaga>  grmrgecko am using 256m but it is a p4 with xubuntu
[14:44] <iniesta6> may i get little help about installing ubuntu from wubi.exe
[14:44] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, you have to stick with the version the repo gives you to remain consistent
[14:45] <wildc4rd> afternoon all
[14:45] <szal> iniesta6: better install in VirtualBox or on real hardware
[14:45] <grmrgecko> lapaga: I'll give xubuntu a try after this then.
[14:45] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, "libgconf2-4 (= 2.32.2-0ubuntu2) but 2.32.4-1ubuntu1~natty1 is to be installed" <--- that's why you are getting this
[14:45] <grmrgecko> I just need some type of linux:P
[14:45] <grmrgecko> windows isn't a good way to scan for viruses
[14:45] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, it's trying to pull in dependencies that aren't in the repo
[14:45] <iniesta6> ill try
[14:45] <iniesta6> ty
[14:45] <mrdeb> happy holiday
 ow to fix?
[14:46] <szal> mrdeb: what holiday?
[14:46] <cloudyLights> use gnome ppa?
[14:46] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, you have to uninstall that version of glib
[14:47] <Lanlost> great
[14:47] <grmrgecko> maybe debian will work
[14:47] <grmrgecko> I know Ubuntu is debian based
[14:47] <iniesta6> im trying to download the ubuntu iso for live cd
 uninstalled glib, what now?
[14:47] <iniesta6> but im getting error on the official website
[14:47] <acicula> grmrgecko: ubuntu and debian have the same origins but are very different
[14:47] <iniesta6> http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/ubuntu-releases//natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
[14:48] <acicula> grmrgecko: if you need something userfriendly id stick with ubuntu or fedora
[14:48] <grmrgecko> I am a nerd who stays in the command line
[14:48] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, uninstall any other packages you manuallly installed
[14:48] <PoppaChubba> grmrgecko, same :)
[14:48] <Lanlost> I've been using a 300gb hard drive in my xbox for like 5 years now. Never had a problem except that there seems to be an issue where it.. loses it's power or something. It did this from the beginning. It makes a weird clickingnoise.
[14:48] <grmrgecko> so I can deal without a user friendly thing
[14:48] <szal> grmrgecko: how about grml or SystemRescueCd then?
[14:49] <acicula> grmrgecko: i suppose im just a lazy geek :)
[14:49] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, that's usually indicative of a failure
[14:49] <grmrgecko> szal: I tried using Hiren's Bootcd, but it runs out of ram quickly
[14:49] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, HD failure
[14:49] <Lanlost> Welll
[14:49] <acicula> grmrgecko: whats the problem you are having? not enough ram?
[14:49] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, the head isn't moving across the platter
[14:49] <Lanlost> The thing is.. It's done this since the beginning
[14:49] <sreekar> hello
[14:49] <Lanlost> and yes, I know that it's definitely possible to have a bad hard drive since you get it
[14:49] <szal> grmrgecko: see, 256 MB of RAM aren't good for much these days any more ;)
[14:49] <grmrgecko> acicula: In Hiren's boot cd trying to run spy bot search and destory
[14:49] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, yeah, I had one that clicked for 2 years. Run tests on it  though
[14:50] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, will come up with lots of errors
[14:50] <acicula> grmrgecko: eh i dont know anything about a Hirens boot cd
[14:50] <Lanlost> but.. I could always fix it by just adjusting the power on the back. I have the case off always. And the old hard drive I had in here did the same thing (stock hard drive)
 uninstalled gnome-common
[14:50] <cloudyLights> whats next?
[14:50] <grmrgecko> yeah, why I'm moving to ubuntu to run anit virus
[14:50] <grmrgecko> clamav
[14:50] <cloudyLights> still getting same error
[14:51] <zeroburn> hay all i have a problem with SDL, when i start kednlive, i get error "Failed to initialize SDL: No available video device".. Im runing ubuntu 11.04_64
[14:51] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, you uninstalled libgtk2.0-dev too?
[14:51] <Lanlost> it seems to be more the connector. If I push up the connector so that it's sort of jammed up 2-3 degeres then it goes away. Every once in a while it loses i's hol
[14:51] <szal> grmrgecko: http://grml.org/faq/#requirements
[14:51] <Lanlost> loses it's hold and does this. I just adjust for a few attempt's and it's fine. Either way, Id on't want to lose this data. Any good way to image it? I've never done that before
[14:51] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, yeah, but if it was power it wouldn't click, it wouldn't do anything
 yes
[14:52] <grmrgecko> szal: I'm guessing that's anit virus
[14:52] <Lanlost> Poppa, the problem her eis the word 'click'
[14:52] <acicula> !backup | Lanlost
[14:52] <grmrgecko> Hiren's bootcd has it
[14:52] <PoppaChubba> cloudyLights, talk to me in PM. We'll try and fix this puppy
[14:52] <acicula> Lanlost: if the disk has problems i would just try a dd copy myself
[14:52] <Lanlost> Everytime I've ever said "click" with a hard drive, people freak out and say it's a hard drive failure (I'm not saying that YOU are freaking out.. you should meet the people I'm talking about.
[14:52] <Lanlost> Ok
[14:53] <PoppaChubba> heh sometimes dd can bring on the big failure :)
[14:53] <acicula> Lanlost: ie take a raw image from the disk
[14:53] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, nah, like I said, I used a drive that did that for over 2 years
[14:53] <acicula> PoppaChubba: the alternative is endlessly cycling through filesystem errors
[14:53] <teddyroosebelt> i thought about using dejadup myself.. but then it wouldnt work on all computers. so im gonna stick with rsync
[14:53] <PoppaChubba> acicula, yep
[14:53] <grmrgecko> kubuntu just reboots the computer each time
[14:53] <acicula> PoppaChubba: and hoping that wont break the disk :P
[14:53] <grmrgecko> so yeah, I'll try debian
[14:53] <grmrgecko> make a partition that's 5 GB or something
[14:54] <Lanlost> When I say click too.. I mean, normal healthy hard drives do it. I mean the disc access clicking noise. In a pattern, not a 'failure' clickng sound, like the head is 'resetting' or something.
[14:54] <szal> grmrgecko: that's general purpose system rescue stuff..  grml comes w/ clamav, you just need to update its signature database
[14:54] <Lanlost> Sorry, I don't mean for this to be off-topic since it's a) hard drive, and b) xbox
[14:54] <lapaga> grmrgecko, you do realize that you are trying to use the most memory intensive (i think) of the ubuntu's
[14:54] <acicula> some disks are just loud
[14:54] <Lanlost> My point of this really is hard drive backing up, with ubuntu =P
[14:55] <grmrgecko> lapaga: no?
[14:55] <grmrgecko> lol
[14:55] <Lanlost> The one thing I wanted to know is.. It's nice and all to just make an image with DD.. but I'd like it to be accessable, file by file, if possible. The reason is that it's a proprietary file system
[14:55] <grmrgecko> I only ever used the gnome based ubuntu
[14:55] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, have you run SMART / hdparm tests on it?
[14:55] <grmrgecko> not the KDE based one
[14:55] <grmrgecko> szal: I'll give it a try
[14:55] <Lanlost> Maybe, since it's working right now.. and appears that it just took me a second to get it in the right position, that I'll just FTP as much of the stuff off, in order of importance. Sound good?
[14:55] <grmrgecko> all I can say is that Microsoft Security Essentials found nothing
[14:56] <acicula> Lanlost: i dont know the filesystem that xbox uses, but if ubuntu does not support it you can only make a raw image anyway
[14:56] <grmrgecko> and this computer was at Windows XP SP1
[14:56] <grmrgecko> no updates
[14:56] <acicula> grmrgecko: wipe it and start again?
[14:56] <Lanlost> Poppa, hrm, I wonder if there is a way to check SMART on an xbox hard drive, from the XBOX. I could put it in the PC if not of course
[14:56] <grmrgecko> lol
[14:56] <grmrgecko> acicula: I do not like window's license crap
[14:57] <Lanlost> I think there acutally is a module or something for L=XFAT, the file system.
[14:57] <grmrgecko> this computer doesn't have a license on it because they bought windows xp seperate.
[14:57] <acicula> grmrgecko: yeah, but using windows XP SP1 is aking to going on vacation, leaving all the doors open and placing an add in the newspaper about how you will not be home the next few weeks
[14:57] <grmrgecko> it came with 98 before
[14:57] <oCean> grmrgecko: let's get back on topic, ok? The support issue?
[14:57] <PoppaChubba> I didn't know Xbox used a different filesystem that FAT32
[14:57] <grmrgecko> lol
[14:58] <Lanlost> Actually, I know there is.. because when I originally modded it.  I hot swapped it and was using midnight commander
[14:58] <grmrgecko> downloading grml
[14:58] <acicula> Lanlost: that means you can read a raw image . you can mount such images using loopback
[14:58] <Lanlost> ah yes, you are right. Good point
[14:58] <Lanlost> I didn't think that you could just loopback ANY file system
[14:58] <Lanlost> You just need to be able to read it? I thought it was only for like.. isos of cds and such
[14:58] <acicula> grmrgecko: anyway if you suspect you have a virus that msrt didnt find there is no guarantee that clamav will either, especially since its only a passive scan. if you suspect you have/had malware wiping and reinstalling is your safest option.
[14:59] <Lanlost> makes sense with the nature of a loopback
[14:59] <acicula> any block device can be mounted
[14:59] <grmrgecko> acicula: I believe it has one because everytime I boot, MSSE is off
[14:59] <Lanlost> I only have one eye open btw, and I keep alternating.. I'm just that tired. I was going to go to bed a long time ago when I thought "Hey, I'll update dosbox" and that's when I was curious about mounting it as a 'drive' (friends word, not mine)
[15:00] <Lanlost> and then loooked at my TV and noticed, hey, that's not King's Quest 6.. that's an error about my hard drive. =P
[15:00] <oCean> grmrgecko: do you have an ubuntu question?
[15:00] <Lanlost> So thanks guys, I think I'll go to bed and do this tomorrow more carefully
[15:00] <edbian> Lanlost: What's the difference
[15:00] <edbian> ?
[15:00] <grmrgecko> oCean: I did, I posted it way back
[15:00] <PoppaChubba> Lanlost, good idea :)
[15:00] <grmrgecko> http://pastie.org/private/29zoc3k5auulsyst99qnfq
[15:00] <oCean> grmrgecko: then stick to that issue, and stop other discussion
[15:00] <grmrgecko> while it sets verifies the install
[15:01] <grmrgecko> none answered for 30 minutes
[15:01] <grmrgecko> other than ubuntu won't run...
[15:01] <grmrgecko> so I will just try other oses
[15:01] <grmrgecko> thanks anyway
[15:03] <Lanlost> edbian, whats the difference between what?
[15:03] <edbian> Lanlost: Your game and a hardware error.  I was kidding :P
[15:04] <floogy> Hi, is there an internal protection to decompression|zip|archive bomba in zlib or bzip libs and programs, or can I only secure my system against that by using ulimits.conf? What parameters should I set for limits.conf?
[15:04] <floogy> *bombs
[15:05] <acicula> by bomb you mean archives that expand to very large files?
[15:07] <acicula> if so no there isnt a protection for that in those compression libs, you will have to set limits on the user executing those programs or on the directories where files are expanded to
[15:08] <Lanlost> edbian, I don't appriciate your humor and am highly offended, please refain from all future attacks or the FBI will be knocking at your door. My dad is also God and you will be smited
[15:08] <bazhang> Lanlost, thats enough
[15:08] <edbian> Oh My Your Dad!
[15:08] <Lanlost> and Roberta Williams says she doesn't like you any more
[15:08] <Lanlost> =), ok bazhang
[15:08] <floogy> acicula, yes or recursive packed files http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_bomb
[15:08] <Traintop> Hi Folks! yesterday I asked for a package that would turn my 11.04-laptop into an (radioclock,alarmclock, "Radiowecker" in german)... -but as it seems there is no such package I decided to investigate on my own... but the tutorials are all quite out-dated: so here's my question; -which is the "most-ubuntu-style" method to set an acpi-alarm?
[15:08] <bukowski> can I ask a newbie support question here?
[15:09] <bazhang> bukowski, yes of course
[15:09] <edbian> Traintop: use at
[15:09] <edbian> Traintop: You can do things like at 8:45 aplay /some/song/file
[15:09] <Traintop> edbian: "at" ?
[15:09] <edbian> Traintop: It's a command
[15:10] <A-R-R> Do I need to follow any specific boilerplate for developing apps for ubuntu using pygtk?
[15:10] <floogy> acicula, so /etc/security/limits.conf or quota are the points to configure against such an attack?
[15:10] <bukowski> Trying to install Ubuntu 11.04 on acer apsire one d255 -- running test drive off usb stick and I have aboslutely no touchpad control.  tried gconftool-2 as I found onine, no luck.  Apparently there is nothing in Xorg.0.log relating to my trackpad.  I would like to install ubuntu, but obviously need a functioning trackpad.
[15:10] <acicula> Traintop: you want the laptop to wakeup or just send a signal when its already on?
[15:10] <edbian> A-R-R: What do you mean by boilerplate ?
[15:11] <Lanlost> I wonder if I should go back to standard Ubuntu. I'm using Ubuntu Studio for the real time kernel it has by default but I found that it didn't seem to have any benefit, and actually seemed to make my system worse. Anyone have any experiences with it?
[15:11] <floogy> acicula, I read in the manpages of bzip2 that listing the contents also decompress the whole archive first, so that's no way to see if the archive is affected?
[15:11] <Traintop> edbian: this will probably not be what I want; -my idea is the following: in the evening I plug my laptop into ac and set an alarm for tomorrow morning; the pc then turns off, sleeps all night and charges its battery; then at let's say 06:59 it wakes up, fires up vls with a desired playlist/stream-source and wakes me up :-)
[15:11] <A-R-R> edbian: I meant any specific template? like the project skeleton
[15:11] <acicula> floogy: i would say both, ulimit just sets limits on things like filesize i think, but not how much space is used
[15:11] <PoppaChubba> bukowski, what would the real Charles Bukowski do?
[15:12] <edbian> Traintop: You want it to turn itself on?
[15:12] <Traintop> s/vls/vlc/
[15:12] <bukowski> drink a few bottles of wine and throw the fucking netbook out the 15th floor window.
[15:12] <PoppaChubba> you got it
[15:12] <Traintop> edbian: I thought acpi-wakeup does this
[15:12] <bukowski> what is a WMID device?
[15:12] <IdleOne> !language | bukowski
[15:12] <acicula> floogy: idk if there are ways to partially decompress a bzip archive to allow inspection. you can set restrictions on the space it can use to do it. if it hits the limits it will just fail
[15:12] <bukowski> 'scuse me... burp.
[15:13] <Lanlost> At the time I was between jobs and my TV that I used to, erm, watch tv's speakers stopped working, so I routed the sound to my computer. Problem is, I was poor and only had a mono plug to stereo so sound only came out of my right speaker. I ended up using Jack (among other reasons) to mirror the right speaker to the left.
[15:13] <ohir> bukowski: 10.04 works fine on AAone.
[15:13] <edbian> A-R-R: I've written a large app in pygtk.  I'm sure there are many conventions I didn't follow.  :P  You can see how I did it here: https://github.com/edbian/Mint-Berry-Crunch
[15:13] <bukowski> ohir.  wifi too?
[15:13] <floogy> acicula, in limits.conf I can set limits of programs like unzip bunzip2 etc.?
[15:13] <edbian> Traintop: Really?  IDK anything about this :P
[15:13] <bukowski> thought you had to do whole extra thing to get wifi working?
[15:13] <PoppaChubba> bukowski, you may have hit upon a bug in 11.04
[15:13] <ohir> bukowski: I do not tried 11.04 though
[15:13] <Lanlost> There was lag though so I got Studio for the real time kernel to reduce latency. Every time I enabled it though, it seemed to do what it did on non-real time kernels. Immediately start systematically destorying all stability until rebooting
[15:13] <ohir> bukowski: yep, wifi too
[15:13] <Traintop> edbian: IDK?
[15:13] <acicula> floogy: no they set limits based on users
[15:14] <ohir> bukowski: 10.04 is LTE distro
[15:14] <edbian> Traintop: Besides turning on what we're talking about is the same thing.  you can point at to vlc instead of aplay.  at 6:45 vlc /path/to/some/file/
[15:14] <edbian> Traintop: IDK = I don't know
[15:14] <bukowski> ohir - straight from the install disk?  I only went with 11.04 because I read that wifi didn't work on d255 without extra pckgs
[15:14] <update> anyone know what channel i would go to ubuntu network security
[15:14] <bukowski> ohir.  LTE means?
[15:14] <ohir> bukowski: with 3yr support so I'd suggest starting with that
[15:14] <Traintop> edbian: but can the "at"-command also turn off the pc or put it into s3/s4?
[15:14] <floogy> acicula, but then: how can I configure bzip2 for limits?
[15:14] <foxhoundz> How can you tell if Ubuntu has hardware acceleration enabled
[15:15] <acicula> floogy: there will be a user executing bzip2
[15:15] <ohir> bukowski: LTS*, long teerm support
[15:15] <acicula> you can set limits for that user
[15:15] <foxhoundz> I have an Intel GMA HD integrated card but I'm getting issues with it
[15:15] <bukowski> Ah.. ok
[15:15] <bukowski> I'll try it.
[15:15] <bukowski> thanks all
[15:15] <Traintop> edbian: thx fpr IDK :-) all this chat-language; mom, afk, brb, cu, re, ... :-)
[15:15] <bukowski> sorry about the language  :P
[15:15] <Traintop> s/fpr/for(
[15:15] <floogy> acicula, hm, that's not what I want. ;(
[15:15] <edbian> Traintop: Ahhh!  I didn't know you wanted it to shutdown too :P  You can use cron to do regular timed events.  LIke everyday at midnight shutdown.  Use cron for that.
[15:15] <edbian> Traintop: mom ?
[15:15] <Traintop> edbian: just a moment
[15:16] <edbian> Traintop: Interesting...
[15:16] <Traintop> edbian: I once before heard it's mainly popular in german-online-gaming-scene :-)
[15:16] <ohir> bukowski: there were problems with wifi on AAone IIRC. It was fixed with ne update though
[15:16] <floogy> foxhoundz,  glxinfo?,
[15:16] <edbian> Traintop: anyway, use at for something that happens at a specific time.  Use cron for regular events that happen periodically.  use a script to play a sound for you and the shutdown command to turn off pc.  Combine the three
[15:16] <ohir> bukowski: so be prepared to get updates over wire
[15:17] <Traintop> so anybody any ideas how to set up an acpi-wake-up-event in ubuntu 11.04 so the ubuntu-devs say it's done "nicely" :-) ?
[15:17] <acicula> floogy: limit.conf governs what users see and can do only
[15:17] <ohir> bukowski: nm*
[15:17] <acicula> floogy: you can use apparmor to control what programs can do
[15:17] <foxhoundz> floogy: I ran into this (https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html) just when you mentioned that :P
[15:17] <acicula> floogy: though not sure it that will let you set a quota
[15:17] <Traintop> one ubuntu-tutorial says to put the time in /proc/acpi/alarm but that does not exist on my machine :-(
[15:17] <anthony_dev> hello. I downloaded file sun_java_wireless_toolkit-2.5.2_01-linuxi486.bin.sh but I cant execute this one in terminal. any ideas?
[15:18] <floogy> acicula thx for the hints!
[15:18] <foxhoundz> let me boot into ubuntu and try
[15:18] <Traintop> anthony_dev: try chmod u+x sun_java...
[15:20] <floogy> acicula, It would be fine if all decompression libs and programs would test for such bombs and throw out a warning message wich provide users and programs with informations and a force option to omit this check.
[15:23] <filosofixit> I've got isc-dhcp server running but got both /etc/dhcp and /etc/dhcp3 directories... which one is used by the server?
[15:23] <delinquentme> which applett is the battery life display?
[15:23] <rhin0> the one on the top right of the screen delinquentme
[15:24] <delinquentme> rhin0, haha i mean if i want to put it back .. bc its not there currently
[15:24] <rhin0> right click on panel click on "add to panel" something to do with battery or power will be there
[15:25] <zeroburn> is there anyone here that can help me to install and setup SDL on ubuntu 11.04_64
[15:25] <rhin0> maybe not
[15:26] <acicula> floogy: not likely to happen. you could try to list files in a package first, but you will never be able to tell if they are bad files untill you unpack them
[15:26] <Ampelbein> zeroburn: what error message do you get?
[15:27] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: is says there is no available video devices
[15:27] <filosofixit> Anyone who knows if ISC-dchp server is using /etc/dhcp  or /etc/dhcp3?
[15:27] <acicula> anthony_dev: you need to make sure its executable, just right click the file in the filebrowser and toggle execute, are you sure however there is not a ubuntu packaged version of that program?
[15:27] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: well.. after installing it and running a program that is..
[15:27] <terry> Can someone help me, I installed ubuntu with the alongside windows option, but when i reboot the screen keeps flickering on ubuntu and does find on windos 7(home premium)
[15:28] <Ampelbein> zeroburn: and what is your video card? did you install the proprietary drivers? what does glxinfo say?
[15:29] <filosofixit> nevermind, I found it out.. I guess it is safe to remove the old /etc/dhcp3 directory then?
[15:31] <terry> how do i uninstall ubuntu? I use the alongside windows option on windows 7
[15:31] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: video card: Nvidia geforce GT 335M, I did version 270.41.06... glxinfo has a HUGE output.. u want me to pastebin it?
[15:33] <CarlFK> terry: you install something else to replace it.  same answer as "how do you uninstall windows?"
[15:33] <Ampelbein> zeroburn: yes, please.
[15:33] <Traintop> CarlFK: I think he used this install-option, which installs the linux-root-tree inside the ntfs-win-filesystem
[15:34] <terry> @carl, i used the install inside windows
[15:34] <CarlFK> Traintop: terry:  oh... wubie?
[15:34] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: http://patebin.ubuntu.com/637511
[15:34] <Traintop> as I haven't done this before I would magically suggest to delete the directory called "linux" or "ubuntu" or something similar
[15:34] <gdw> hello
[15:34] <gdw> hi
[15:34] <Traintop> CarlFK: i think so :-)
[15:34] <CarlFK> terry: yeah, that.  t
[15:35] <terry> i figured it out, dont know why my screen keeps flickering in ubuntu
[15:35] <CarlFK> terry: guessing this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Uninstallation
[15:37] <terry> thanks carl, any idea why the flickering in ubuntu
[15:38] <Ampelbein> zeroburn: that looks ok, how did you install sdl, with apt-get? can you try a simple game like sdl-ball?
[15:39] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: yes trough synaptic package manager, and no, but kdenlive gives me the video errors, as well as openshot..
[15:40] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: Im downloading sdl-ball now to test with it..
[15:41] <barnee> people i just got a bug in ubuntu
[15:41] <barnee> can i post what i got in here?
[15:42] <Ampelbein> barnee: report it with 'ubuntu-bug <packagename>' please
[15:42] <iniesta6> hi
[15:42] <romariosdn> oi :D

[15:43] <iniesta6> i want to burn the iso to make live cd
[15:43] <iniesta6> how i can save the changes that ill make on ubuntu?
[15:43] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: same error with sdl-ball
[15:43] <barnee> what is sdl-ball?
[15:44] <zeroburn> iniesta6: that wont work
[15:44] <iniesta6> :S
[15:44] <Ampelbein> zeroburn: hmm, no idea then, sorry.
[15:44] <zeroburn> iniesta6: the "alternative" is not a gui version...
[15:44] <iniesta6> so what that?
[15:44] <barnee> am i supposed to post that bug report here or somewhere else?
[15:45] <zeroburn> Ampelbein: danm... it worked before my format... aaaugh.. haha.. i realy need my video edditing software... but awell.. tnx anyway..
[15:45] <iniesta6> what i need to download so i can save changes?
[15:45] <zeroburn> iniesta6: it means you wont have any graphics... and no live system... you need the normal ISO file..
[15:45] <iniesta6> and ill be able to save changes?
[15:45] <quant> iniesta6, install it
[15:46] <zeroburn> iniesta6: what do u mean by "saving changes".. like installing an aplication and keeping that?
[15:46] <iniesta6> yes
[15:46] <quant> iniesta6, CD is a read only medium
[15:46] <iniesta6> i can install the ubuntu on my computer form the live cd?
[15:46] <zeroburn> iniesta6, what quant said..
[15:46] <zeroburn> iniesta6: yes.
[15:46] <quant> iniesta6, yes
[15:46] <iniesta6> which iso i need?
[15:46] <quant> iniesta6, depends on what you want
[15:46] <iniesta6> i try to downaload from official site
[15:46] <iniesta6> but i get an error
[15:46] <iniesta6> im new,dont know realy
[15:46] <quant> iniesta6, there are descriptions on the official site, read them
[15:47] <Northernen> Are there any media players which can play SWF files? Having to view them in Firefox is becoming tedious.
[15:47] <zeroburn> iniesta6: any ISO but NOT  the alternitave install..
[15:47] <why-not> Northeren:VLC
[15:47] <dimas_> how do i get to make pulseaudio server to use jack when i need it? ...i a using ubuntu 11.04 and pulseaudio.0.9.22
[15:47] <iniesta6> i try to download from here
[15:47] <iniesta6> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[15:47] <Northernen> why-not, I've tried. It can't.
[15:47] <astraljava> barnee: If you used ubuntu-bug, it posted the bug report to launchpad.net
[15:47] <iniesta6> but i am getting nothing when pressing on downloaed
[15:47] <noisymouse> what is the name of the power management app binary?
[15:48] <quant> iniesta6, works for me
[15:48] <quant> iniesta6, on what OS and browser are you?
[15:48] <why-not> hmm
[15:48] <iniesta6> chrome
[15:48] <iniesta6> xp
[15:48] <zeroburn> iniesta6: same here.. works perfect..
[15:48] <quant> iniesta6, open it in internet explorer and try
[15:49] <acicula> noisymouse: gnome-power-manager
[15:49] <zeroburn> iniesta6: here's a direct link to the 32bit version http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release//natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
[15:49] <Northernen> why-not, I'm getting the sound on the SWF files in VLC, but no video.
[15:49] <iniesta6> works :S
[15:49] <iniesta6> :)
[15:49] <iniesta6> ty ill burin that iso and install
[15:49] <floogy> acticula, man clamscan|egrep -B3 -C1 '\-\-max|archive' - This is something to check such archives I guess.
[15:49] <zeroburn> iniesta6: awsum, enjoy..
[15:50] <quant> iniesta6, good luck
[15:50] <barnee> astraljava: where do i check whether i filed it or not?
[15:50] <acicula> floogy: clamav will still unpack the files to check them though
[15:51] <astraljava> barnee: @ https://launchpad.net
[15:51] <why-not> Northeren: VLC is my goto player usually
[15:51] <kunji1> Hey everyone, I just setup multitouch in 10.10, and was using easystroke.  I rebooted a few times to make sure everything was persistent and good to go, then I upgraded to 11.04.  The multitouch is still working, but easystroke is not working with the touch screen (though it will with the trackpad).  I'm using a Lenovo S10-3t.
[15:51] <acicula> floogy: and frm the man page that only affects how deep clamav will scan
[15:52] <tylerCanada> can someone point me to a Ubuntu Sound Menu integration tutorial? I'm trying to integrate a Java app but I can't seem to find any good documentation.  Thanks!
[15:52] <acicula> so not sure if that will actually give you an error if the limits are exceeded
[15:52] <zeroburn> tylerCanada: just add it like you would a normal command to the menu
[15:53] <barnee> am i supposed to have an account to file a bug?
[15:53] <tylerCanada> zeroburn: sorry I'm rather new to this. how do I add a normal command? can you please point me to that documentation?
[15:54] <D-coy> m4v, are u there?
[15:54] <why-not> Northeren: Gnash swf viewer should work as a standalone player
[15:54] <zeroburn> tylerCanada: right click on the menu, select edit menus.... then navigate to where you wish the command be visible, click on the new item button on the right.. and type the neccesary info in the box :)
[15:55] <floogy> acicula, I think that's a protection against such doS with zip-bombs. Because of that I think they're using another approach, though I'm not sure. But zip-bombs are often used to disable av programs.
[15:55] <zeroburn> barnee: yes, you need a launch pad account.. its free
[15:55] <kunji1> zeroburn: I think he wants to integrate it with the volume control, though I don't know how to do that either.
[15:55] <simz> hi guys, how can i get my touch pad back to work again?
[15:56] <barnee> so if i had posted here with report bug it wouldn't have went to the launch pad is it? ok i will create an account there and post there.. thanks!
[15:56] <zeroburn> kunji1 and tylerCanada, exactly what do you guys mean? integrate it with the volume control?
[15:56] <simz> i install ubuntu 10.04 then my touch pad couldnt work, what should i do?
[15:56] <zeroburn> barnee: sure.. :)
[15:56] <Northernen> why-not, brilliant. Cheers, will give it a go.
[15:57] <acicula> floogy: its a safety feature for clamav, if it hits the preset limits it stops scanning. to prevent overloading the scanner indeed
[15:57] <Kolt> Hi! I just installed Ubuntu on my girlfriends sony vaio and it is running slow. Its ubuntu 11 on 64 bit 3.5GiB ram 4x2.13Ghz processor
[15:57] <why-not> good luck
[15:57] <Kolt> any ideas how to speec it up?
[15:57] <kunji1> zeroburn: perhaps like Banshee is integrated?  I don't know exactly what he wants, that's just the impression I got.
[15:57] <tylerCanada> zeroburn: when you click on the volume control you can control various media applications (Banshee, etc.) I want to accomplish the same for my application
[15:57] <acicula> Kolt: how is it slow
[15:57] <floogy> acicula, I guess they will then stop also unzipping/decompress that affected archive...
[15:57] <echo6> I have an annoying problem, headless Ubuntu 10.04, terminal text is green, tried setterm to get white text but on next reboot text goes back to green, anyone know where else I should look to fix
[15:58] <Kolt> acicula: opening any program, playing media etc...
[15:58] <PythonSnake> hi all
[15:58] <acicula> floogy: eh thats what i unedrstand from the man page yes
[15:58] <acicula> Kolt: playing media as in the playback lags? if so in what program?
[15:58] <zeroburn> tylerCanada: If your aplication uses audio, it should be added automaticaly, mine even gives me the name of wine aplications using audio...
[15:58] <floogy> acicula,  Ok, sorry I'm not a native speaker, so I eventually misunderstood you.
[15:59] <acicula> floogy: thats ok neither am i :0
[15:59] <Kolt> acicula: the problem is not whith playing media. It takes ages to open firefox or software center too
[16:00] <quidnunc> Where are per-user crontabs stored?
[16:00] <zeroburn> tylerCanada: you might try this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundMenu   i just scaned through it.. but it seems like a step in the right direction
[16:00] <acicula> Kolt: ehm how long is ages, and what is the age of the laptop?
[16:00] <kunji1> zeroburn: I think they must try to use the windows equivalent and wine is handling it, because, for instance, vlc doesn't show up there for me.
[16:00] <why-not> Kolt:Can you see anything out of the ordinairy with system monitor or top ?
[16:01] <echo6> quidnunc ~
[16:01] <Kolt> acicula: Its new. Its just she didnt like windows7 :) . But with windows it was faster. Age of empires III ran OK
[16:01] <why-not> a process eating up all you resources?
[16:01] <anadon> hey, I got a whole new kind/format of a C++ error message from runtime.  it looks like this: http://pastebin.com/qaw60jeW
[16:02] <Kolt> why-not: no. Everything is at max 15% used
[16:02] <quidnunc> echo6: What is the full path?
[16:02] <tylerCanada> zeroburn: alright I'll keep looking. thank
[16:02] <quidnunc> (to the file)
[16:02] <acicula> Kolt: how long does it take to open firefox when you start up?
[16:02] <zeroburn> kunji1: yea i see.. intersting though.. it seems like only audio players show up... vlc or movie player doesnt.. but if you open the sound aplet, is shows under applications...
[16:03] <edheldil_> Hi, how can I convert SVG to PNG, keeping aspect ratio and limiting to some bounding box? rsvg-convert can't limit the BB :(
[16:03] <echo6> quidnunc: /home/${USER}/.crontab !?
[16:03] <B-r00t> anyone have problem with youtube fullscreen???
[16:03] <Kolt> acicula: 5-7 secs
[16:03] <mneptok> edheldil_: the GIMP will open SVG and save it to any supported format (including PNG)
[16:03] <MagicJ> I have a system that reports:  Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display - this stops the screen saver from working - how do I fix this
[16:03] <zeroburn> tylerCanada: read that page, if its not.. just read trough the results of http://www.google.co.za/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=opera&hs=kij&rls=en&q=integrating+an+application+within+ubuntu+volume+control&btnG=Search&oq=integrating+an+application+within+ubuntu+volume+control&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=s&gs_upl=0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0ll0
[16:04] <kunji1> zeroburn: right, I just think he means that widget like thing with back, forward, and play/pause.
[16:04] <acicula> Kolt: that doesnt seem all that slow
[16:04] <tylerCanada> kunji1: yeah that's what I mean
[16:04] <acicula> Kolt: unless you have a ssd hardrive
[16:04] <edheldil_> mneptok:  well, I need it batch convert.
[16:04] <Kolt> with windows7 it was way less than 1 sec
[16:04] <zeroburn> kunji1: haha.. yea.. sometimes clarity can make a huge difference.. :).. seem si missunderstood.. sorry
[16:04] <echo6> quidnunc: manpage indicates there is also /var/spool/cron/crontabs which can not be edited by users
[16:05] <Kolt> acicula: with windows7 it was way less than 1 sec
[16:05] <kunji1> edheldil: you can do it in inkscape
[16:05] <bfh198> Anyone know how to use gtkpod (ipod software), I need some help with removing and adding songs with to my ipod.
[16:05] <quidnunc> echo6: The former is not actually "installed" into the crontab. The second looks more promising
[16:06] <quidnunc> Why is configuration in /var?
[16:06] <edheldil_> kunji1:  I will try, sounds suboptimal, though. Thanks
[16:06] <quidnunc> stupid
[16:06] <edheldil_> quidnunc:  you should not edit it buy hand, so it's ok
[16:07] <mneptok> Kolt: a Firefox first run will always be slow as it has to load huge libraries (e.g. xulrunner) and your profile for the first time. subsequent launches are noticeably faster.
[16:07] <acicula> Kolt: besides the startup time you dont have any performance issues?
[16:07] <zeroburn> bfh198: try http://www.gtkpod.org/wiki/Getting_started
[16:07] <why-not> Kolt:you could try preload or prelinking
[16:07] <kunji1> Kolt, Win7 probably did that thing where it loads the libraries on boot instead of when the program is started.
[16:07] <acicula> i wouldnt use prelinking, but im looking at preloading yeah
[16:08] <why-not> kolt: also use chromium for speedy startup ;)
[16:08] <why-not> althoo ff4 is way better then 3
[16:09] <edbian> why-not: ff5 is better than 4
[16:09] <kunji1> edheldil_: Sorry, didn't see that you needed to batch convert... not so sure about that..
[16:09] <edbian> if you can spot the difference
[16:09] <acicula> Kolt: there is a tool called preload in ubuntu that will precache applications of your choosing in memory, windows 7 will be doing something similar. firefox is a big program and laptop disks are notoriously slow, which is why you see the discrepency in startup time. If you start firefox, and then close it again the second time you start it it will load a lot quicker
[16:09] <why-not> aye
[16:09] <why-not> sorry i meant that
[16:09] <duvel> Hi. I've just reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and am having serious trouble with Java interacting with Mozilla. It simply does not work. I've tried uninstalled iced6 plugin and so on and so forth. Does anyone have a relatively simple fix to this problem? Thank you in advance.
[16:09] <Kolt> why-not: I use it. :) She doesnt lik it.
[16:10] <Kolt> acicula: you were right. Thank ou Ill get it preloaded for her
[16:10] <lk> how to send messages in a LAN,I want to send a message to another computer which is use the same route,I want to know the command,thank you....
[16:10] <BluesKaj> duvel, did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[16:10] <qin> lk: ping? What message?
[16:11] <acicula> Kolt: alright, good luck :)
[16:11] <duvel> BluesKaj: Yes sir.
[16:11] <Sovek> Hey everyone, How do I remove a distro and its associated profile with it?
[16:12] <lk> just like send sentence to another computer,in the same route
[16:12] <why-not> Kolt: Good luck
[16:12]  * Sovek is dual booting Linux Mint 11 and Ubuntu 11.04 ATM, but removing LM 11 since it has a number of bugs
[16:12] <Kolt> why-not: ty
[16:12] <barnee> i am still hoping to get it posted. -no need to reply-
[16:12] <qin> lk: netcat or wall or mail, in each case you need sever, message to user or program?
[16:13] <BluesKaj> ok duvel , but did you install java first , if so there could be a conflict
[16:13] <Sovek> anyone?
[16:13] <why-not> Sovek: remove LM11 partition and edit grub config
[16:13] <why-not> i would guess
[16:13] <duvel> BluesKaj: Yes, I believe java was installed before I installed the restricted extras.
[16:13]  * Sovek isn't sure how to do that
[16:13] <lk> If I can not connect to the Internet,just in the LAN
[16:13] <why-not> did you install on seperate partitions ?
[16:13] <qin> lk: server: nc -l 3333, client: nc ip_of_server 3333, now you can chat.
[16:13] <Sovek> yes
[16:14] <szal> Sovek: what profile?
[16:14] <qin> lk: Sorry, server: nc -lk 3333, -k is important
[16:14] <why-not> sovek: do you want to remove lm11 and not reinstall anything else on it?
[16:14] <why-not> and reclaim space for ubuntu
[16:15] <lk> thank you,qin
[16:15] <fdeiam> are intel graphics controllers from sandybridge processors supported under 11.04 ?
[16:15] <BluesKaj> duvel, try this , it might solve your problem , sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:16] <edheldil_> kunji1:  Inkscape can't preserve aspect
[16:16] <szal> Sovek: my take: reformat the Mint partition(s) to anything you like, then start *buntu (unless you have it started already since you're formatting from within *buntu) and run 'sudo os-discover && sudo update-grub'
[16:16] <qin> lk: You can install own irc server for lan only, so you could use the very same client you using right now.
[16:17] <Sovek> Ahhh, Ok
[16:17] <lk> thats great
[16:17] <Sovek> now, If I already have Ubuntu 11.04 installed, but want to dual boot with XP... do I have reformat and install XP first, then reinstall 11.04?
[16:18] <leka74> Hello. Anyone able to help me with emerald?
[16:18] <why-not> Sovek:if you can reinstall easy, easiest is to install xp 1st then ubuntu
[16:18] <szal> Sovek: not necessarily, but if you install Windows after Linux, you need to recover Grub
[16:18] <szal> !grub2 | Sovek
[16:19] <qin> !emerald | leka74 is mostly not developed anymore.
[16:19] <Sovek> Right, thats probably what I'll do
[16:19] <duvel> BluesKaj: Thank you. Very much appreciated. Good day to all.
[16:19] <leka74> qin, I'm looking to install a theme that is emerald supported.
[16:19] <DartmanX> question: I'm about to install linux for the first time in about 10 years. I have a laptop with a core 2 duo. Is there a particular reason I should NOT get the 64 bit edition? It says 32 bit is recommended.
[16:19] <Sovek> why-not: Can I easily take off a portion of an EXT4 partition and reformat it to NTFS?
[16:19] <why-not> Sovek:good luck
[16:20] <qin> leka74: OK, so what is problem?
[16:20] <why-not> Sovek, yup no problem
[16:20] <Sovek> right, cool\
[16:20] <leka74> I read this tutorial that allows Emerald to work in 11.04 too
[16:20] <promet> Hi, I am about to attempt a dual boot install of Windows 7 on a second drive (I know, I know) alongside my existing 11.04 install.
[16:20] <Sovek> can I read an NTFS partition in Ubuntu?
[16:20] <mneptok> Sovek: yes
[16:20] <acicula> DartmanX: not really
[16:20] <edbian> promet: What is your question?
[16:20] <why-not> Sovek, yes is also possible
[16:20] <edbian> Sovek: yes
[16:20] <Sovek> promet: DONT
[16:20] <acicula> DartmanX: unlses you know you have some 32bit 3d party app that requires 32bit
[16:20] <promet> I believe I know how to do this, but it's been awhile, so I am looking for tips/moral support
[16:20] <leka74> qin; But it's not working for me. When I type "emerald --replace" on the Terminal it gives me this: "/home/leka74/.themes/diehard/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:53: Clearlooks configuration option "sunkenmenu" is not supported and will be ignored."
[16:21] <Sovek> promet: Windows 7 and Ubuntu DO NOT play nice together
[16:21] <mneptok> Sovek: that's is patently untrue.
[16:21] <Sovek> Anytime you boot into 7 you will loose grub
[16:21] <promet> Sovek, could you be a bit more specific?
[16:21] <xangua> Sovek: top that
[16:21] <qin> leka74: Farrel theme? Is it classic or unity?
[16:21] <edbian> promet: You'll be fine.  You will loose grub. You have to boot an Ubuntu live CD to repair it.  If it's possible, remove the Ubuntu hdd and install windows ont he second hdd while only it is connected.
[16:21] <mneptok> Sovek: also untrue.
[16:21] <BernardV> Sovek: It's no problem if both drives have their own MBR and you switch with the bios boot option.
[16:21] <why-not> Sovek: I have no problems here, but win7 is on my primary partition
[16:21] <Dr_Willis> Sovek:  thats not the case for my 3 windows machines..
[16:21] <DartmanX> next question: I have an external hard drive formatted NTFS that I use on this system AND a vista system. Is the NTFS support good enough that that won't be a horrible issue?
[16:21] <xangua> promet: install wndows first and then any ther os yoy want
[16:22] <acicula> DartmanX: yes its good enough
[16:22] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  Linux can handle ntfs just fine.
[16:22] <promet> That is my thinking, yes
[16:22] <qin> leka74: Easiest is to start emerald via compiz (ccsm)
[16:22] <Sovek> mneptok: I had issues with my netbook and Windows 7 alongside Ubuntu 10.10
[16:22] <edbian> DartmanX: It'll be fine
[16:22] <Sovek> anytime I loaded 7 it would loose grub and I couldn't boot anything
[16:22] <leka74> qin; I tried selecting the theme from Emerald but it doesn't do anything when I click on the theme.
[16:22] <edbian> Sovek: Of course!  You can fix it though using a live CD
[16:22] <mneptok> promet: if these are 2 separate drives, unplug the Linux drive when installing Windows. Windows will put its bootloader in the MBR of the only disk it finds (its own). then you'll have to add that disk to GRUB on the Linux drive manually.
[16:23] <Sovek> Though the other guys may have a solution to that
[16:23] <promet> Well, my goal would be to have W7 installed without harming 11.04, which is already installed, noting that this is on a second drive, not a partition on the 11.04 drive
[16:23] <qin> leka74: compizconfig-setting-manager
[16:23] <mneptok> Sovek: "I had issues" is not the same as "It doesn't work for anyone anywhere ever."
[16:23] <DartmanX> next question: I have a netgear NAS that is currently running SMB, but can do NFS. Is NFS that much better than SMB that I should enable NFS as well?
[16:23] <Sovek> ahhh, then you may not have issues
[16:23] <promet> Thanks mneptok
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> leka74:  emerald is basically a dead project.  You may want  keep that in mind
[16:23] <qin> leka74: Plugin wondows decoration
[16:23] <acicula> DartmanX: windows wont support NFS without addtional packages
[16:23] <Sovek> I've been told that 7 and Linux don't play nice
[16:23] <edbian> DartmanX: NFS is linux only.  SMB is both windows and linux
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  nfs can faster.
[16:23] <acicula> Sovek: you need better sources then
[16:24] <Sovek> Ok, I'm gonna go and work on getting XP loaded
[16:24] <promet> Will the W7 installer not choose a drive, or does it default to the "Master" drive that it "sees"?
[16:24] <edbian> Sovek: Windows 7 doesn't play nice with linux
[16:24] <edbian> promet: It asks you I believe.
[16:24] <DartmanX> It'll have to be both, but if NFS is faster I'd like to use it
[16:24]  * szal guesses that W7 should always be installed first
[16:24] <edbian> szal: It's easier
[16:24] <Sovek> yeah, always install windows first, then Linux,
[16:24] <Sovek> otherwise you need to recover Grub
[16:25]  * szal previously had a dual-boot setup of W7 and Linux running, but that was w/ Linux being installed 2nd
[16:25] <promet> So, theoretically, I wouldn't have to physically disconnect the 11.04 drive, just choose the "Slave" drive for the Windows install and choose that same drive as the MBR drive?
[16:25] <Sovek> thanks for the help, time to go have fun with XP
[16:25] <edbian> DartmanX: I don't think there is a noticable difference between the 2.  NFS is easier to set up IMO
[16:25] <Wiallim> Hi everybody. My Ubuntu 10.10 cpu used rate is very high. sometime over 100%. but i'm just use Document Viewer look PDF.
[16:25] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  nfs you dont normally mount 'on the fly' lkike you do samba shares.. You will want to set up static mount point in /media/ via the fstab most likely
[16:25] <edbian> promet: Yes but physically removing the drive removes the possibility of making a mistake.  You also have the MBR to worry about
[16:25] <DartmanX> hmmm, okay
[16:26] <DartmanX> might just stick w/ SMB then
[16:26] <Dr_Willis> i was thinking ive seen nfs faster. but its hard to benchmark such things. :) if the nas is using external usb2 hd's then the hd would be a bottleneck.
[16:26] <mneptok> promet: no, you'll need to unplug it. Windows places its MBR in the first drive it finds (usually the master on the first IDE chain, or the first SATA drive). by unplugging the Linux disk, you *know* Windows can't write anything to it.
[16:26] <promet> edbian, thanks, I suppose it's wise to have a "failsafe", I will do that.
[16:26] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  you could always set them both up. :)
[16:26] <barnee> hi people i think i have completed this bug report, anyone wants to take a look at them? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/805143
[16:26] <edbian> promet: :)
[16:26] <abuanoname> need help back, am need support how i can able my desktop effect, am used ubuntu 10.10 instal on lenovo G460.
[16:26] <promet> Thanks guys!
[16:26] <Wiallim> firefox always high cpu rate. My CPU is AMD x2.
[16:26]  * mneptok tips his hat
[16:26] <Stef1> any iptables "guru" around that have a minute?
[16:26] <DartmanX> Dr_Willis: I will, but I have the NAS shut down automatically at night. If NFS can't handle that, I might have a problem
[16:27] <edbian> barnee: I can fix that problem.
[16:27] <abuanoname> need help back, am need support how i can able my desktop effect, am used ubuntu 10.10 instal on lenovo G460. and b 4 that have solve it, but am not archive that tutorial please help me..!
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  shuts down automatically? that would be an annoyin feature in a NAS.
[16:27] <acicula> Stef1: better to just ask your question
[16:27] <barnee> oh how do you do that edbian?
[16:27] <Stef1> acicula: well, the explonation is a little bit extensive
[16:27] <Wiallim> My laptop is HP.
[16:27] <DartmanX> Dr_Willis: I have it shut down at 10:30 and restart at 5 am to save power
[16:28] <edbian> barnee: sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*     This command removes the files that are causing the errors.
[16:28] <edbian> barnee: sudo apt-get update   puts new files there that aren't broken.
[16:28] <edbian> Good as new!
[16:28] <Wiallim> Can any body help me.
[16:28] <Wiallim> CPU use rate very high.
[16:28] <acicula> Wiallim: what process?
[16:28] <magpii> i am fairly new to ubuntu and need to istall sage. all the install tutorials say is a load of terminal stuff i cant understand. can someone help?
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> DartmanX:  i doubt if its using much power.  but if thats what you want. I would say samba, and access teh shares on the fly.
[16:29] <Wiallim> Sometime is firefox-bin.
[16:29] <edbian> magpii: sure... Give me a link to one and ask me questions and I'll explain what they're getting at?
[16:29] <edbian> sounds good?
[16:29] <Dr_Willis> magpii:  somedays you just have to bite down and learn some bash basics... this may be such a case.
[16:29] <Stef1> can anyone look over my port forwarding problem in iptables ? http://bit.ly/ldnIC4 thanks
[16:29] <barnee> so edbian what was the actual problem?
[16:29] <Dr_Willis> magpii:  bash is not to hard to learn. just be sure to spell correctly and get teh spaces in the right places
[16:29] <abuanoname> need help back, am need support how i can able my desktop effect, am used ubuntu 10.10 instal on lenovo G460. and b 4 that have solve it, but am not archive that tutorial please help me..!
[16:29] <Wiallim> sometimes is Document Viewer's process.
[16:29] <acicula> Wiallim: maybe some screenshots would illustrate the problem you are describing?
[16:30] <edbian> barnee: The file had a syntax error. IDK what causes it. I've seen it a lot lately.  I think ubuntu pushed out a bad copy of it.
[16:30] <acicula> abuanoname: you can enable desktop effects under appearances
[16:30] <edheldil_> ah, ImageMagick can convert SVG images as well,
[16:30] <abua> yes acicula but notsuupot
[16:30] <acicula> abua: then you need to check additional drivers to see if you need to enable a hardware driver for your graphics acrd
[16:30] <barnee> oh ok edbian. right now i am booted into windows 7, so i will restart and get that done! ubuntu 11.04 was working fine until now.. thanks!
[16:30] <abua> am have do that acicula, am need install my driver am used ubuntu 10.10 install on lenovo G460
[16:30] <edbian> barnee: sure...
[16:31] <lk> I broadcast a message in the linux OS,can the windows system receive it? the destination is use the same route
[16:31] <abua> acicula, am have do that so...
[16:31] <barnee> bbl
[16:31] <abua> acicula, may be we need / i am need to fix my vga driver
[16:31]  * edbian misses barnee
[16:31] <Stef1> hi guys, can anyone look over my port forwarding problem in iptables ? http://bit.ly/ldnIC4 (its on superuser.com) thanks
[16:31] <abua> but am don't know how to fix my driver vga
[16:32] <acicula> abua: i do not understand. have you enabled a driver via additional drivers? what graphics card do you have? did you download and install drivers yourself ?
[16:32] <gamblermc> Looking for help with wireless connection. I have tried all of the wireless troubleshooting help on ubuntu.com
[16:32] <BluesKaj> lk, broadcast message ...by what means ?
[16:32] <Wiallim> acicula: My laptop temperature somtimes over 70'c
[16:32] <magpii> is there no way of installing sage via synaptic package manager instead of having to dick around with terminal code?
[16:32] <edbian> gamblermc: what card do you have?
[16:32] <edbian> magpii: I have no idea what sage even is.  Hang on.
[16:32] <gamblermc> edbian: bmc4318, I believe
[16:32] <abua> acicula, am have install all driver an that the bad ide, couase my grafik bad
[16:32] <gamblermc> broadcom
[16:32] <dean> Hi sometimes my panel icons go funny is there a way to refresh my panel?
[16:32] <magpii> sage is an open source accounting program
[16:33] <administrator> ?
[16:33] <edbian> gamblermc: I think I can help.  Is this computer online via wired? Or some other way? We need to download packages.
[16:33] <magpii> i need it work my mates business accounts
[16:33] <edbian> magpii: http://www.sagemath.org/  ??
[16:33] <bhavesh> this is my Htop screenshot : http://i.imgur.com/ebeuV.png , it shows more than 200 processes running...
[16:33] <lk> I don`t know really,I find a command from the google,"wall < message.txt".
[16:33] <bhavesh> does it mean there's something wrong?
[16:33] <gamblermc> edbian: no but i can via a macbook im using right now, and xfer using a flashdrive
[16:33] <Dr_Willis> !find sage
[16:33] <acicula> Wiallim: if its sometimes 70C its not overheating
[16:33] <edbian> gamblermc: ok, this might be tricky.
[16:34] <dean> Dr_Willis, Didn't see you there how you doing?
[16:34] <edbian> gamblermc: the b43 driver covers that chipset (4318)  http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43/devices?highlight=%284318%29
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> dean:  3 day weekend.. all ive done basically is sleep. :)
[16:34] <gamblermc> edbian: worst comes to worst i could get a wired connection, it's just a hassle for me to right now.
[16:34] <magpii> thats the one, but everytime i download the software, i cant see it in synaptic package manager, and the install is all in terminal code
[16:34] <magpii> stick this theire, type this here, move this add that
[16:34] <dean> Dr_Willis, Alright for some lol
[16:34] <edbian> gamblermc: The wired connection will likely be less of a hassle.  But first lets check a couple things.
[16:34] <edbian> gamblermc: PM ?
[16:34] <acicula> Stef1: i dont understand your problem at all, you cant reach your local server on localip:localport ?
[16:35] <bhavesh> why are there so many processes running?
[16:35] <gamblermc> edbian: sure
[16:35] <BluesKaj> lk, perhaps you would make yourself better understood in #ubuntu-cn
[16:35] <BluesKaj> !cn | lk
[16:35] <Wiallim> acicula:really?
[16:35] <acicula> Wiallim: really
[16:36] <lk> thank you ,BluesKaj
[16:36] <abua> Wiallim, am need fix my vga problem did you can help ?
[16:36] <edbian> magpii: I'm downloading it right now to follow along
[16:36] <Wiallim> ubottu: 终于看见中文了。亲切呀。
[16:36] <dean> Dr_Willis, I dont suppose there is a way to refresh the desktop panel sometimes my icons look funny?
[16:36] <juancarlospaco> hi :)
[16:36] <Stef1> acicula: i am trying to forward 80 port to the internet (which works) but also to my local network, which i am having problems to.
[16:36] <acicula> abua: there are also native langugae ubuntu channels, maybe trying a support channel for your language might help?
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> dean:  with unity - i contantly get mesed up icons and top bar menu and graphics (of the panel and menu bar) i cant even use Unity its such a problem.
[16:37] <edbian> magpii: All we need to do is decompress.  That doesn't even require terminal.  You want me to explain terminal commands or explain gui method?
[16:37] <abua> acicula, am from indonesia, and nobaody can support me on that chanel
[16:37] <Stef1> acicula: also reaching my local webserver (which is after the linux firewall/my iptables script) doesnt work, as it doesnt seem to be forwarded correctly
[16:37] <acicula> Stef1: that does not compute, you forward incomming connections from the internet on port 80 to your local machine
[16:37] <wakoz> Guys how can i add more effects for compiz ? =)
[16:37] <magpii> i am re downloading it, i uncommpressed it before then got lost with terminal jargon
[16:37] <acicula> wakoz: in appearances
[16:37] <acicula> or Appearance rather
[16:38] <Wiallim> dean: my desktop panel about 65, is not funny.
[16:38] <Dougie187> does anyone know why panel applets are having issues loading?
[16:38] <magpii> i deleted it all thinking i had done it wrong
[16:38] <qin> magpii: Can you give linky to source?
[16:38] <magpii> ?
[16:38] <qin> link
[16:38] <acicula> Stef1: but how are you reaching your local webserver that does not work?
[16:38] <edbian> qin: http://boxen.math.washington.edu/sage/linux/32bit/index.html
[16:38] <edbian> qin: That's what he's working on.
[16:38] <magpii> http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/www.sagemath.org/linux/32bit/index.html
[16:38] <qin> Thanks
[16:38] <edbian> qin: There is a readme there.  extract and run ;)
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> Sage is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL.
[16:38] <dean> Dr_Willis, I am using 10.04 its like the wireless icon or the battery icon goes funny at times
[16:39] <Dr_Willis> dean:  no idea on that.
[16:39] <BluesKaj> Stef1, why are portforwarding your network to port 80, that's meant for browsers/http
[16:39] <RevSpecies116> ? sagemath is provided by Ubuntu in the repo's
[16:39] <noisewaterphd> dean, what is funny?
[16:39] <RevSpecies116> sudo aptitude install sagemath
[16:39] <Stef1> acicula: if i am trying to reach it on my lan it doesnt work (my server has 2 ethernet cards, eth0 is connected to the internet, and eth1 is connected to my local network)
[16:40] <DriversBroken> How would one configure drivers for an installation of ubuntu on an external hdd
[16:40] <noisewaterphd> dean, out of order, power menu icon disappears?
[16:40] <DriversBroken> Because I use it on different computers
[16:40] <wakoz> Guys how can i add more effects for compiz ? =)
[16:40] <noisewaterphd> dean, nvidia drivers?
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> sage seems to be weird.. it even has a virtualbox 'image'
[16:40] <RevSpecies116> And if aptitude doesn't work: sudo apt-get install aptitude, and then do the other command
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> wakoz:  check the package manager. theres some in there not installed by default
[16:40] <dean> noisewaterphd, When my laptop starts up sometimes my icons on the top right hand side such as the wireless or battery or power icon goes a bit funny? I don't have nvidia I aint that lucky lol
[16:40] <Nisstyre> yes
[16:40] <Stef1> acicula: if i type into my brwoser external ip of my network (which should get forwarded to apache server behind firewall), it doesnt reach it, because packet originiated from the local network (if i am correct)
[16:41] <noisewaterphd> dean, does logging out and back in fix it?
[16:41] <DriversBroken> wakoz:  Try compizconfig settings manager
[16:41] <DriversBroken> wakoz:  Although save everything before you do, when I used it, changing anything would cause a system hang
[16:41] <dean> noisewaterphd, Sometimes but I was wondering if there was a way to refresh the screen.
[16:41] <dean> Dr_Willis, No probs
[16:42] <noisewaterphd> dean, search ubuntu tracker, I'm pretty sure there is a bug open on it
[16:42] <Stef1> BluesKaj: i dont understand your question, i am forwarding 80 port, because i am running apache server behind my linux firewall
[16:42] <acicula> Stef1: you are only portforwarding packets comming in on intehrface ppp0 for port 80 to <localip>
[16:42] <DriversBroken> !compizconfig-settings-manager
[16:42] <noisewaterphd> dean, just by restarting X
[16:42] <magpii> why does my system have a downloads and a download folder? i download to the download folder but it doesnt show on my list of places
[16:42] <acicula> so it make sense that packets comming from a local interface for <external ip > does not match
[16:42] <dean> noisewaterphd, Restarting x?
[16:42] <noisewaterphd> which logging in and out is probably the best way for you to do that
[16:42] <Stef1> acicula: yes, and i am looking for someone that could show me how i can properly forward packets from eth1 to my local machine
[16:42] <sht> could anyone provide some general insight on as to why ubuntu may hang when doing apt-get install postfix? the server already had sendmail installed
[16:42] <sht> it sits at Unpacking postfix (from .../postfix_2.7.1-1ubuntu0.2_amd64.deb) ...
[16:42] <DriversBroken> Can anyone help me with using a portable installation of ubuntu?
[16:43] <noisewaterphd> dean, ya, so if you don't understand that, then logging out is the answer
[16:43] <Stef1> acicula: because every way i tried it basically kills my 80 traffic (i am not really skilled in the iptables, i know just the basics)
[16:43] <BluesKaj> Stef1, ok , now that you mention your server , that explains it
[16:43] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, you've got to be specific, how do we know if we can help?
[16:43] <dean> noisewaterphd, No probs thanks anyway
[16:43] <acicula> Stef1: you need an explicit rule that says only traffic from eth1, to externalip, and port 80
[16:44] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, you know that
[16:44] <giles1> hello, I keep getting a kernel oops when running virtualbox-ose on natty.
[16:44] <DriversBroken> noisewaterphd:  I use it on different computers, with both AMD and nvidia cards
[16:44] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, usb or livecd
[16:44] <DriversBroken> noisewaterphd:  That's the only way?
[16:44] <Stef1> acicula: i am guessing there is no way you could write that line for me? because i really have no idea :(
[16:45] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, I'm asking you how you do it
[16:45] <acicula> Stef1: but if you nat that you get other problems because you are natting on a local ip i think
[16:45] <DriversBroken> noisewaterphd:  I have a full, regular installation of ubuntu on an external hdd
[16:45] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, so what is the issue
[16:46] <DriversBroken> noisewaterphd:  Well, how would I install both amd and nvidia drivers and avoid conflicts
[16:46] <wakoz> Dr_Willis nothing changed
[16:46] <wakoz> :*(
[16:46] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, there is no easy way that I know of
[16:46] <giles1> hello, after upgrading to ubuntu natty virtualbox-ose is crashing with a  kernel oops
[16:46] <wakoz> there is a Burn effect that i can run
[16:46] <giles1> how can I fix it.
[16:46] <wakoz> or find
[16:46] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, you need to use the portable version of ubuntu, whatever that is
[16:47] <root_____> exit
[16:47] <magpii> would it be better to download the sage lzma file or the gz file?
[16:47] <noisewaterphd> DriversBroken, the full desktop edition you will have to install drivers each time you use the different machine
[16:47] <Stef1> acicula: i dont know how to get around it, because when i type in the external ip, packet goes straight to the eth1 avoiding ppp0 (and also my forwarding rule) which you probably already know
