[03:51] <w1n5ton> well that is source code
[03:52] <fallingloveyou> the ver is so old
[03:52] <w1n5ton> you need to either get a deb or compile it
[03:52] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: I am going to be away from the monitor for a while, use my full nick, "Jordan_U" in your message if you want me to see it and respond (as that will make my client beep at me).
[03:52] <CkhiKuzad> Diamondcite, I'm trying to configure it as a 510, because that's another part of its name that appears to exist in the database.
[03:52] <ahtmly2k> yes it does..
[03:52] <fallingloveyou> no deb download
[03:52] <ahtmly2k> works on my vista
[03:52] <joeoshawa> Jordan_U got it
[03:53] <Diamondcite> CkhiKuzad: Eh? Isn't it s 2050? Why a 510? That is completely different.. ah well up to you :)
[03:53] <joeoshawa> sorry it took so long
[03:53] <CkhiKuzad> It's a 2050, but it says j510 in the name too.

[03:55] <gkffjcs> Hey all, I'm just getting static off all my audio inputs....
[03:56] <brverg> I need help on manual partitioning
[03:56] <w1n5ton> good god though
[03:56] <joeoshawa> cd's and dvd's are a bad media i need to stick to portable drives and usb sticks
[03:56] <w1n5ton> It must take up so much space
[03:57] <vader> Gate: Thanks. Copying the file to my home dir worked.
[03:57] <joeoshawa> disks suck
[03:57] <brverg> how much space is necessary for swap area?
[03:58] <joeoshawa> disks never last the drives are made worse and worse every year and you have to burn like 4 disks to get one good
[03:58] <bastid_raZor> brverg: most use around 2GB but some suggest equal to your RAM.
[03:58] <joeoshawa> and they charge a mint for them
[03:59] <bastid_raZor> brverg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq    read that to understand what swap is
[03:59] <Rob235> hey
[04:00] <joeoshawa> i swear for what it takes to get 20 gigs worth of dvd's i could get 200 gigs on a static drive
[04:00] <resno> need some help getting wifi configured with the /etc/networking/interfaces file. i cant get dhcp to recieve an address from the router
[04:00] <Rob235> is there a program that has mac photo booth effects? cheese's effects suck in comparison unless theres an addon i can download
[04:00] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: Ok, now create a directory /boot/grub/, and in it create a text file named "grub.cfg" with this as the contents: http://pastebin.com/04v5mXCe
[04:00] <joeoshawa> mkdir /boot/grub/
[04:00] <joeoshawa> lol
[04:00] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: That /boot/grub/ also needs to be on the ubuntu partition, so the fill path will be /media/something/boot/grub.
[04:01] <Balsaq> swap = ram x 2 brverg
[04:01] <shebang_wafflesa> Hey, does anyone know if you can edit a kernel config file on Linux like you would on a BSD?
[04:01] <bastid_raZor> Balsaq: that is the old method and a bit of overkill
[04:02] <ahtmly2k> rrr..iiight..
[04:02] <Balsaq> bastid_raZor, still a good rule of thumb to this day
 I need help in manual partitioning. You see, I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 .
[04:03] <blackshirt> brverg: what you need ??
[04:03] <joeoshawa> root@ubuntu:/media/a7a7ac14-fc24-4254-b9de-293a4f0dfb2c/boot/grub# gedit grub.cfg
[04:03] <joeoshawa> got it
[04:04] <brverg> 20GB for /, 2GB for SWAP area, and the remaining 128 GB for /home. Is it ok?
[04:04] <bastid_raZor> brverg: you'll need a / with no less than 10GB if you will do a seperate /home (i use 15GB) and a /swap around 2GB or equal to your RAM, and if you wish a /home being as large as you want which this is where your files and configurations will be
[04:04] <bastid_raZor> brverg: yes, perfect
[04:05] <Rob235> is there a program that has mac photo booth effects? cheese's effects suck in comparison unless theres an addon i can download
[04:05] <blackshirt> brverg: are you want installed more and more packages on your system ??
 Ok, but why can't mount home? I mean it's not listed in "Places"
[04:05] <joeoshawa> Jordan_u what do i put in grub
[04:05] <resno> need some help getting wifi configured with the /etc/networking/interfaces file. i cant get dhcp to recieve an address from the router
[04:06] <bastid_raZor> brverg: what is the error you get? there has to be an error during boot or when gnome loads
[04:06] <joeoshawa> never created a grub config file
[04:06] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: http://pastebin.com/04v5mXCe
[04:06] <bastid_raZor> brverg: Home Folder is not listed in Places?
 no error msg. the installation went well. but unlike my previous 9.10, I can't see my free space hard drive being listed
[04:07] <prtylghts> ok, i tryed installing libqt4-sql-mysql with software center and its frozen at 50%, been like this for a while... how do I cancel or fix?
[04:08] <bastid_raZor> brverg: pastebin the contents of /etc/fstab and the output of mount

 /home should be EXT 4 journaling file system right? And I checked "Primary"

[04:11] <bastid_raZor> brverg: /home can be ext4 yes, can you pastebin the output of the command mount?
[04:11] <prtylghts> anyone?
 how do I do that?

[04:12] <researcher1> How can I create a dual boot USB
[04:13] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: Are you currently booted from a CD? Because if you are that output doesn't make sense.
[04:13] <joeoshawa> i am
[04:14] <shjen> I'm attempting to transfer data from a windows computer onto my linux(ubuntu) system, mainly need the music documents.  I figured the easiest way was to create an ftp server.  Having trouble.  Suggestions?
[04:14] <joeoshawa> i have a 10.04 install upgraded from 9.04 on one side of my hdd
[04:14] <joeoshawa> but i am not on it
[04:15] <joeoshawa> i need this install so i can fix that one
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> shjen: winscp for windows and openssh for ubuntu. use winscp to connect to ubuntu and drag and drop.
[04:15] <joeoshawa> it is 32 bit
[04:15] <prtylghts> is there really no way to terminate an install if it hangs in software center?

[04:15] <joeoshawa> i want one 64 and one 32 so when i am messing with one if it goes on the fritz from me playing with it i am not screwed
[04:15] <Sebasti> hi
[04:16] <snowsnakes> ok, im not getting something with permissions
[04:16] <Sebasti> anyone around running Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) ?
[04:16] <joeoshawa> but the 32 is buggy and what not from upgrades
[04:16] <snowsnakes> can someone help me
[04:16] <snowsnakes> I have a dir /var/www with gid for www-data. I have a user named web that is in the www-data group
[04:16] <joeoshawa> but if i mess with it anymore i am afraid i will mess it up and be up you know what creek without a paddle
[04:17] <snowsnakes> i have set permissions to 660 on the /var/www dir, but I can't read it
[04:17] <shjen> Bastid : And if its on two seperate computers?  Like, transferring from one to another?  (the files are on a windows machine, I have a linux box)
[04:17] <snowsnakes> shouldn't 660 give my user full access?
[04:17]  * Sebasti is searching a Ubuntu 9.10 User,  please tell me if anyone is around
[04:17] <joeoshawa> it barely works as it is
[04:17] <resno> snowsnakes: depends on if the users is on the group
[04:17] <snowsnakes> resno, yes it is
[04:17] <bastid_raZor> snowsnakes: directories need execute
[04:18] <snowsnakes> really... all of them?
[04:18] <snowsnakes> you need execute to read them?
[04:18] <bastid_raZor> snowsnakes: just the directory yes, the files inside do not.
[04:18] <snowsnakes> "Execute permission on a directory means you can list the files in that directory"... makes sense
[04:18] <joeoshawa> oh crap  that is my home dir
[04:19] <snowsnakes> thanks
[04:19] <joeoshawa> grr
[04:19] <joeoshawa> i think i messed that up
[04:19] <joeoshawa> i need to mount the other partition
[04:19] <joeoshawa> partition /
[04:19] <joeoshawa> this is to much bs man
[04:19] <white_magic> in the shell, if i do a pattern match, can I refer to one of its groups later? something like if i have a match for '0[1-9]'
[04:20] <bastid_raZor> shjen: that is my suggestion for two seperate computers
[04:20] <TeslaTony> Can 9.04 or 9.10 upgrade directly to 10.10, or do I need intermediate steps? And how do I force intermediate steps?
[04:20] <Sebasti> Problem:  By a mistake,  I deleted all groups I was member of ... it was hard work to get into the "admin" group again.   Now,  my problem is that I need to know,  what groups I was member of.  It was a standard Installation,  (K)ubuntu 9.10  and  the default user
[04:20] <white_magic> then set m = [what was in here]
[04:20] <shjen> Bastid  Thank you!
[04:20] <bastid_raZor> shjen: that method would not work a dual boot
[04:20] <joeoshawa> i am going to totaly  f myself and have nothing
[04:20] <bastid_raZor> shjen: openssh-server is the package name you need for ubuntu
[04:20] <joeoshawa> i can see it
[04:20] <mouse> I have a libflashplayer.so file to be added to firefox and I don't know what directory to put it in.  Anyone know?

[04:21] <ice799> Hi. I am using 10.10. Is there some security option that is turned on that prevents me from ptrace attaching to process started as my own user?
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> brverg: that is not what i asked you to pastebin. type mount  and pastebin the output
[04:22] <white_magic> can someone tell me what shell ubuntu 10.04 uses? bash?
[04:22] <Dice-Man> yes
[04:22] <joeoshawa> Jordan_u u gone
[04:22] <Dice-Man> bash
[04:22] <white_magic> thanks
[04:22] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: No.
[04:22] <joeoshawa> i think i am fubard here
[04:23] <joeoshawa> i am at the point of saying to hell with it
[04:23] <snowsnakes> ok, 1 more permission question. I can't seem to overwrite a file set to 660, is that right?
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/527986/
[04:23] <usr_> hello, I am trying to play a dvd with movieplayer but I got the message: could not read from source, what can I do?
[04:23] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: I think you can recover, and I'm willing to work on it as long as you are.
[04:23] <snowsnakes> I'm using SCP to overwrite, and it says access denied
[04:23] <white_magic> usr_...just get vlc
[04:23] <white_magic> it can play anything
[04:23] <jmichaelx> mouse: you can place libflashplayer.so in /home/user/.mozilla/plugins/  if that dir dows not exist, you can just create it
[04:24] <jmichaelx> does*
[04:24] <joeoshawa> so where do i go from her copy everything to the other partition
[04:24] <mouse> jmichaelx, Oh I see.  Thank you.
[04:25] <prtylghts> ok, try this again: i just attempted to install a program from the software center and it's hanging at 50%, i have no option to stop it, and I have other software that I want installed. How do I terminate the one that is frozen?
[04:25] <usr_> white_magic, it didnt work :(
[04:26] <gogeta1> prtylghts: cuple ways you can do ps -A find the prosses then sudo kill and its id number
[04:27] <gogeta1> prtylghts: if you knoe the name sudo killall app name or id guy you can use xkill
[04:27] <prtylghts> i can't find the process. i have no idea what its called or anything. i know what i installed, but it is not listed in the system monitor?
[04:27] <usr_> what codecs or plugins do I need to play a DVD on my pc? I tried using vlc and movie player and neither work
[04:27] <gogeta1> prtylghts: you cn do sudo xkill and click on it
[04:27] <TriFaS> hi!
[04:28] <glassresistor> im running 10.10 and am trying to get python-opencl to run with radeon drivers
[04:28] <prtylghts> tried xkill, and i managed to kill the software center, but when i open it back up the process of installing that package is still hanging at 50%
[04:28] <glassresistor> but i can't get the sdk installed

[04:28] <w1n5ton> Conmiro,
[04:28] <gogeta1> prtylghts: restarting x should pull the plug
[04:29] <gogeta1> prtylghts: sudo service gdm restart
[04:29] <bastid_raZor> brverg: from what i see the commit=0 may be the issue, is there a reason you have this option?
[04:29] <glassresistor> i had it working with nvidia, basically out of the box with the out-of-the-box drivers but radeons seem to need more work
[04:29] <boxbeatsy> hi, i cant connect to my LAN after buying a new switch.  i've tried restarting but that didnt help.  does anyone know how i can debug this?
[04:30] <glassresistor> boxbeatsy: is the ethernet port in the computer know to be good?
[04:30] <bastid_raZor> brverg: this is a confirmed bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pm-utils/+bug/610055
[04:31] <smileMoo> ls
[04:31] <boxbeatsy> glassresistor: it was working before i swapped out the old switch
[04:31] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: have you configured your new switch
[04:32] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: normaly they act alot like roughters
[04:32] <glassresistor> boxbeatsy: cable? does the switch have power?
[04:32] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: i didnt know iw as supposed to.  i can connect immediately with my windows machine
[04:32] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: ah
[04:32] <boxbeatsy> glassresistor: yea, i see the lights blinking on my port
[04:33] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: IS UBUNTU SET FOR AUTO ETH0 OR DID YOU SET UP AS STATIC EFORE
[04:33] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: oops
[04:33] <glassresistor> boxbeatsy: and the switch is pluggined into the lan?(just making sure)
[04:33] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: What is /dev/sda1?
[04:33] <smileMoo> whois Jordan_U
[04:33] <boxbeatsy> glassresistor: yea, i can connect with windows just fine
[04:33] <glassresistor> boxbeatsy: sudo dhclient eth0
[04:33] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: it is sert up for auto etho afaik
[04:34] <boxbeatsy> glassresistor: i'm getting dhcpdiscover on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67 interval X
[04:34] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: youe switch might need to be configured for 2 pcs
[04:34] <boxbeatsy> where x changes
[04:34] <shebang_wafflesa> did you run dhclient on your NIC device?
[04:34] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: how many ports you whant to turn on
[04:34] <joeoshawa> dev sda1 i think is the / partition for the buggy install
[04:35] <joeoshawa> the other one is the /home
[04:35] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: like how many ports on the switch do i want to use?
[04:35] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: yea
[04:35] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: 2 for now but maybe more in the future
[04:35] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: sda1 contains a fat filesystem.
[04:35] <prtylghts> ok, so restarting restarting gdm didnt help either
[04:35] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: well your modem and pc = 2
[04:35] <joeoshawa> oh that is the usb
[04:35] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: ah 3
[04:35] <joeoshawa> that is the one i was trying to boot
[04:35] <glassresistor> how do i get the libOpenCl.so, .1, .etc files for opencl available to pyopencl
[04:35] <joeoshawa> it wouldn't
[04:36] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: I'm pretty sure that you're booting into the USB right now, not from CD.
[04:36] <joeoshawa> it has ubuntu 10.10 on it but no go the bios won't see it
[04:36] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: yea if you have 2 pc and 1 modem you need 3 ports unless it has a dedcated odel port
[04:36] <glassresistor> also is there a way for me to run an ati an a nvidia graphics card?
[04:36] <gogeta1> modem
[04:36] <gizmobay> I have an internal modem that I was trying to get working. I finally got it tow work and then all of a sudden the computer just frooze. I hit the power button then the computer wouldn't boot. I unplugged the computer and then tried again and still no reboot. I removed the modem from the PCI slot and then it booted. I then shutdown the computer and then readded the modem and then it rebooted.
[04:36] <joeoshawa> no if i take the cd out it boots from hdd
[04:36] <glassresistor> when i try booting with both x/gdm fals
[04:37] <joeoshawa> with the usb in
[04:37] <smileMoo> "chainload" is disapear in menu.lst. why?
[04:37] <gizmobay> Anyone know what could've happened.
[04:37] <fluid> so, if you use this "disk utility" in system administration, it just sits there whirling the indicator... is there a log file being written, or some way to see output from fsck? cause this is annoying. next time ill just do it in a terminal lol
[04:37] <joeoshawa> it is an install but it won't boot
[04:37] <joeoshawa> dunno why
[04:37] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: well, the siwtch does have 3 ports, do i need to specially configure it for ubuntu?
[04:37] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: Try removing the USB then reboot (with the CD in). I think that will solve your problem.
[04:37] <joeoshawa> i will
[04:37] <joeoshawa> talk soon
[04:37] <TriFaS> can anyone here help me with a problem about some configurations that are lost after a restart?!
[04:37] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: cause when i plug my windows machine in it just works
[04:37] <joeoshawa> brb
[04:37] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: umm it should just work in ubuntu to
[04:38] <glassresistor> also anyone else notice the wallpaper plugin for compiz glitchying out in 10.10
[04:38] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: is it lighting up
[04:38] <smileMoo> anyone
[04:38] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: yup
[04:39] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: im thinking maybe you got the switch set to only 2 ports and its just blocking the 3rd pc
[04:39] <brverg>  <bastid_raZor> would suggest unistalling 10.10 and reinstalling 10.04?
[04:40] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: my roughter has that setting at least and i had to figure that out lol
[04:40] <bastid_raZor> brverg: would taking the commit=0 out of fstab be an issue for you?
[04:40] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: but i only have the modem and one cable plugged in right now.  and when i try my windows machine it works, but just not for ubuntu
[04:40] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: i just turned all the poerts on
[04:40] <smileMoo> ls
[04:40] <Jordan_U> smileMoo: Could rephrase your question / elaborate?
[04:40] <LoOoD> ideas who/where I report missing files in old-releases.ubuntu.com ?
[04:40] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: wait is it a modem/lan
[04:40] <bastid_raZor> shjen: in windows use winscp to connect. use the internal ip of the ubuntu box.. please keep the discussion in this channel
[04:41] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: modem
[04:41] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: modem with lan ports or modem with lan switch
 I don't understand
[04:42] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: cable modems need to be reset for linux for the new mac adress
[04:42] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: im unclear on your question.  i bought a switch, and im plugging the modem into the switch sot hat i can connect multiple computers to the network
[04:42] <bastid_raZor> brverg: pastebin /etc/fstab .. in a terminal type cat /etc/fstab then copy paste that.
[04:42] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: ok modem on a switch
[04:42] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: you may need to tell the switch to use more ports
[04:42] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: if it has softwhere controle
[04:43] <TriFaS> someone to help?
[04:43] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: i dont believe it does..at least not in the included instructions.  and, if the port isnt enabled, windows shouldnt work anyways though right?
[04:43] <shjen> kk will keep discussion in this channel.
[04:43] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: i bet if you swap cables on the switch ubuntu will work and windows whont
[04:43] <amagee> hey do any of you guys recommend a semi-simple (but not too simple) free video editing package?
[04:43] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: it's the same cable im trying
[04:44] <boxbeatsy> there's only one cable aside from the modem
[04:44] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: you try resetting the switch
[04:44] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: yea :\
[04:44] <metropolispt2> anyone savvy with win7 dual boot installs? mine seems to be completely missing and any help would be appreciated :D
[04:44] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: does the switch have a firewall
[04:44] <smileMoo> I boot from flash disk, but the "chainload" statement disappear
[04:45] <smileMoo> how
[04:45] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: you probly have to go in the switch settings and allow ubuntu the windows cd you used probly did it for you
[04:45] <smileMoo> bootstrap is grub2
[04:46] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: it might have mac adress filtering on
[04:46] <smileMoo> grub4dos boot from grub2
[04:47] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: how do i go into the switch settings though?  im looking at the instructions, an dit doesnt mention connecting directly to the switch
[04:47] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: it's not a wireless router
[04:47] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: what kind of switch is it
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/527993/
[04:47] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: true but some switches are softwhere controled mutch like roughters
[04:48] <shjen> Bastid : Ok, I have the winSCP open, I found my IP of the linux box that the router gives me.  Host name would be the IP address of the linux box?  and the username would be the computer name?
[04:49] <bastid_raZor> brverg: i don't know what else to do since it is a known bug with no fix as of yet.
[04:49] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: what model switch you have
[04:49] <bastid_raZor> shjen: yes hostname is the IP and username is your username on the ubuntu box
[04:49] <BrianEvo> hey guys
[04:50] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: see how to contole it
[04:50] <shjen> Bastid :  Do I need the MAC address for anything?
[04:50] <linhkienitdotcom> h
[04:50] <bastid_raZor> shjen: winscp does not have a place for the MAC address iirc
[04:50] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: dynex 5-port 10/100Mb ethernet switch (model # may be DX-ESW5)
[04:50] <linhkienitdotcom> fack
[04:50] <pwnt> hi to all, I am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 ive burned the iso to 3 discs, but all gave me the same problem. I am stuck on the purple screen with only mouse cursor loading... is this a common issue?
 Ok. Did 10.04 had this bug?
[04:50] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: im looking through all the stuff that cmae with it but dont see insructions on connecting directly ot it
[04:51] <bastid_raZor> brverg: not that i can find.
[04:51] <BrianEvo> hello guys, is it a fact that Ubuntu OS is better than any other OS available out there? I mean performance wise?
[04:51] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: there is no simple answer to that.
[04:52] <pwnt> hi to all, I am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 ive burned the iso to 3 discs, but all gave me the same problem. I am stuck on the purple screen with only mouse cursor loading... is this a common issue?
[04:52] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: yea im pulling up the manul
[04:52] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• I am really new at it.. I have been using windows all my life.. and really I am curious about other OS especially Ubuntu
[04:52] <metropolispt2> hey guys, whats the best way to recover lost data from an overwritten partition?
[04:52] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• what can Ubuntu offer me that Windows cant?
[04:53] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: cool thanks
[04:53] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: someone posted a issue like your only 1 pc connecting
[04:53] <needhelp1> BrianEvo, ubuntu is free, windows isnt
 Thanks
[04:53] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: these questions are waaaay too general and subjective. There are whole books written on the subject.
[04:53] <bastid_raZor> brverg: best of luck
[04:54] <BrianEvo> Oh thats a one big thing that it is free
[04:54] <KagomeShuko> I am dual booting, have both Windows and Ubuntu 10.10, the sound works on Windows, but not on Ubuntu
[04:54] <shjen> Bastid: Just making sure.  So when I enter the ip as host name...ex : <IP_ADDRESS> then the user name : shjen-AOA150 Port : 22    It says "Invalid access to memory"  ?
[04:54] <KagomeShuko> I've tried all different combinations in my sound options, but nothing gets the sound back
[04:54] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: if you google for "why choose linux over windows" you find lots of people writing their opinions...
[04:54] <BrianEvo> for example, I have an HTC Evo, I do not like the stock kernel/system in it, therefore I choose to replace it with custom roms built by independent programmers
[04:55] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• If you do not mind me asking, why do you use Ubuntu personally?
[04:55] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: i think i found the thread you're ooking at.  is the problem that the modem can't assign IP's cause it's not configured for DHCP?
[04:55] <n17ikh> hi all, I'm having some trouble with grub2. Anytime I (or any program) tries to write any files in /boot/grub, it fails with a permission denied error
[04:55] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: and if so, can i manually assign my own IP
[04:55] <n17ikh> any suggestions?
[04:56] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: because I find it more flexible and works the way I want an OS to work.
[04:56] <n17ikh> (this includes update-grub), which fails miserably if it can't write in /boot/grub, obviously)
[04:56] <needhelp1> i have a question, my grandmothers pc i want to set up with VNC so i can remote in to fix issues from home, but the pc is behind a router, how can i get this set up so even when the ip changes i can still get a connection ?
[04:56] <bastid_raZor> shjen:  http://winscp.net/eng/docs/message_invalid_access_to_memory   , i would suggest a different version of winscp
[04:56] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• do you ever use Windows at all?
[04:56] <KagomeShuko> Anybody?  Can you help with sound issues?
[04:56] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: yes, for gaming and on my work computer.
[04:57] <aussa> once I "make" a file, can I move that folder later?
[04:58] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: it says only managed ports will give a ip
[04:58] <flyguy> hi
[04:58] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: try using a diffrent port
[04:59] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• that is my another concern, I use my computer for gaming and web surfing purposes
[04:59] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: that didnt help :\
[04:59] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: tried two other ones
[05:00] <shjen> Bastid:  So all that is right though?  I'll try some other versions.  Thank you so much.
[05:00] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• is Ubuntu friendly to PC games? I know some software can be installed in ubuntu through wine, virtual box and etc
[05:00] <sanal_madatheth> hello all
[05:00] <bastid_raZor> shjen: yes, hostname = your IP and username = your username on the ubuntu box
[05:00] <Jordan_U> smileMoo: Please describe exactly what you're trying to do, with complete sentences.
[05:01] <Shocked> When installing ubuntu i can't get passed the "who am i screen"
[05:01] <Shocked> I fill out all the info but i can't get the next button to light up..
[05:01] <Conmiro> Hi I deleted the ubuntu partition and now I can't boot into my next partition.
[05:01] <Shocked> And then the install goes up to the Ready when you are screen.
[05:01] <SwedeMike> BrianEvo: I don't know.
[05:01] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: What OS is on the other partition?
[05:01] <BrianEvo> •SwedeMike• I just read it, trying to get the concept of this Ubuntu OS, its cool that you can edit your main theme design for your desktop and all, it sounds like an android phone, there are many apps available to modify your android phone, same as Ubuntu, lots of ppl contributing to make Ubuntu interesting since its an open source
[05:02] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: you might have to use static ips on a switch they dont have a dhcp server
[05:02] <Conmiro> it's a D2d recovery partition
[05:02] <Conmiro> im trying to boot from it
[05:02] <Conmiro> but I think grub is overriding
[05:02] <Shocked> anyone help?
[05:02] <soulwarp> I installed the Ubuntu game but now my computer windows is gone
[05:03] <umer-siddiqui> why yahoo mail is fuzzy on firefox ubuntu
[05:03] <w1n5ton> delete system32
[05:03] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: Are you currently booted into an Ubuntu LiveCD on that machine?
[05:03] <Jordan_U> !ops | w1n5ton
[05:03] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: thats probly your issue windows if it cant find a ip will auto set a local ip
[05:03] <Shocked> Yeah i burned the ISO in my cd
[05:03] <Conmiro> ubuntu liveUSB
[05:03] <Conmiro> yea
[05:03] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: Don't listen to w1n5ton.
[05:03] <xiaohui> abc
[05:04] <Conmiro> delete system32?
[05:04] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: you probly are better off with a roughter you can wire those up to use cable modems easly
[05:04] <umer-siddiqui> w1snton is liar
[05:04] <needhelp1> step one, delete system32
[05:04] <Conmiro> wheres system32 at
[05:04] <umer-siddiqui> needhelp1 liar
[05:04] <umer-siddiqui> Conmiro don't do this
[05:04] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: NO. That would make the recovery partition unbootable. w1n5ton and needhelp1 are both trolls.
[05:04] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: i see ok lemme try setting a static IP
[05:04] <Conmiro> oh
[05:05] <w1n5ton> I'm not a troll
[05:05] <w1n5ton> I was kidding
[05:05] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: and roughters have dhcp and firewalls and cab be controled
[05:05] <vader> When I start the program zgv it returns a mouse error. I've edited svgalib.config every-which-way for "Mouse type: None" (and a host of other mouse types) but zgv stills returns errors. Any ideas?
[05:05] <gogeta1> can
[05:05] <Flannel> w1n5ton: Malice is never funny.
[05:05] <karthick87> Hello, is there the gdrive in ubuntu? like windows have..?
[05:05] <metropolispt2> guys, what's my best shot at recovering a win filesystem and its data if my ubuntu install (supposed to be a dual boot) used my entire HD?
[05:05] <umer-siddiqui> karthick you can use samba
[05:05] <Conmiro> how do i get rid of grub?
[05:06] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: i still have a old wired linksys hear lol i replaced it with a wired/wireless
[05:06] <boxbeatsy> gogeta1: ok i need to restart.  if this doesnt work ill just go buy a router.  thanks for all your help man!
[05:06] <w1n5ton> I've been helping him all night
[05:06] <Conmiro> I want to boot from my partition but somethings preventing me from doing so and i think its grub cause i keep getting a grub error when I boot even though I deleted the ubuntu partition
[05:06] <macscr> Anyone know of an app that will allow me to break up my screen into different zones that i can maximize windows in, etc?
[05:06] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: switches dont seem to like haveing more then 1 pc on at a time
[05:06] <Conmiro> i get a grub_rescue thingy
[05:06] <gogeta1> boxbeatsy: why there called swittches
[05:07] <Conmiro> is there something i can type here to boot into my partition?
[05:07] <karthick87> umer-siddiqui: I am talking abt gmail drive
[05:07] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: In the live Ubuntu system "sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mbr" then run "sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX". Be *VERY* carefull about what device you choose for the "sdX" portion though.
[05:07] <Flannel> Jordan_U: He can't do that.  He deleted his Ubuntu partition
[05:07] <Flannel> Jordan_U: Oh, live. right
[05:07] <Conmiro> yea liveUSB
[05:07] <shjen> Bastid:  Okkkk!  Making progress.  It now connects, and authenticates.  Asks for a password, if I put in the ubuntu root password, says denied.
[05:07] <Conmiro> but can I just use grub_rescue to run a command
[05:08] <aussa> once I "make" a file, can I move that folder later?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: The grub rescue shell is very limited because it needs to fit in the small space between the mbr and first partition. It's only purpose is to allow you to find the rest of grub when something goes wrong, but that's not possible since the partition is comepletely gone.
[05:09] <Conmiro> oh
[05:09] <Conmiro> ok so ill run those things u said to run
[05:09] <Conmiro> do i need internet connection for that?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: Yes.
[05:10] <Conmiro> crud
[05:10] <Belboz9999> Hey all, I seem to have lost all administrative rights on a PC I'm working on, I was under the impression that using the recovery mode could grant root access it
[05:10] <Jordan_U> Belboz9999: That's correct.
[05:10] <Belboz9999> I can't seem to access the bootloader, the system seems to jump straight from POST to login
[05:11] <Jordan_U> Belboz9999: Hold shift during boot.
[05:11] <Conmiro> sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mbr" then run "sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX". Be *VERY* carefull about what device you choose for the "sdX" portion though.
[05:11] <Belboz9999> Jordan_U: ah, shift brings up the hidden bootloader, was wondering if they changed the hot-key around
[05:11] <Conmiro> Is that all one command?
[05:11] <Conmiro> or did you seperate them by semicolons
[05:12] <bastid_raZor> shjen: there is no root password for ubuntu.. use YOUR username and password
[05:12] <Conmiro> also which device shud i use for the sdX?
[05:13] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: Semicolons mark the end of a command in bash, so if you run a list of commands separated by semicolons in the terminal they will run one after the other.
[05:13] <aussa> once I "make" a file, can I move that folder later?
[05:13] <blakkheim> !repeat > aussa
[05:13] <Conmiro> jordan can you PM me I'm having trouble following you
[05:13] <Jordan_U> Conmiro: Sure.
[05:14] <Shocked> Can anyone here help me with my install issues?
[05:14] <Jordan_U> Shocked: Your username needs to be all lower case.
[05:14] <Shocked> oh..
[05:14] <Shocked> That was simple i'll give it a shot.
[05:15] <shjen> Bastid:  Right, I understand that.  My username and password...That would be my linux box's login?  Or the internet?  My internet is unsecured...
[05:16] <gogeta1> shjen: yes
[05:16] <gogeta1> shjen: giku adin pass adin thrn you are logged in
[05:16] <gogeta1> shjen: like
[05:17] <BrianEvo> •gogeta1• what do you use Ubuntu personally?
[05:17] <shjen> Maybe I'm not doing  something on the linux side thats required?
[05:17] <gogeta1> shjen: if your wifi is open it should just connect
[05:17] <shjen> gogetal, yeah, thats right.
[05:17] <gogeta1> shjen: your wifi is not working?
[05:17] <bastid_raZor> shjen: everything you enter into winscp will be your ubuntu credentials. username and password of the ubuntu box.
[05:17] <shjen> gogetal: the wifi is working, I'm online on both the windows box and yours
[05:17] <joeoshawa> Jordan_U u are a ubuntu savior
[05:18] <gogeta1> shjen: maybe i missed the question
[05:18] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: :)
[05:18] <gogeta1> BrianEvo: yes i use ubuntu lol
[05:18] <joeoshawa> i am talking to you from my new ubuntu ultimate install
[05:18] <gogeta1> BrianEvo: my netbook has 10.10
[05:18] <demon> er modgr.com
[05:18] <demon> sorry
[05:18] <demon> wasnt spamming
[05:19] <joeoshawa> the usb drive has no boot record i guess so it must have used the one off the cdd
[05:19] <gogeta1> shjen: so what was the question
[05:19] <joeoshawa> cd
[05:19] <shjen> Bastid: I definatley understand that the ubuntu credentials are the same.  If I am running the Winscp on the windows box, what do I need to do to the linux box to retreieve connection?
[05:19] <joeoshawa> so the cd booted the usb stick
[05:19] <bastid_raZor> shjen: have openssh-server installed
[05:19] <joeoshawa> when i pulled it out everything froze
[05:19] <gogeta1> shjen: oh winscp
[05:19] <shjen> Bastid: Right, installed and open.
[05:20] <bastid_raZor> shjen: then all should work, what error are you getting from winscp?
[05:20] <gogeta1> shjen: you whant to connect to your windows ftp server
[05:20] <shjen> Bastid:  wait...I might be wrong.  Gimem a minute.
[05:20] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: You probably shouldn't depend on that USB drive for any critical files. The fact that you got IO errors (which we now know were from the USB, not the CD) suggests it may be corrupting data.
[05:20] <gogeta1> shjen: gftp is a good ubuntu ftp client
[05:20] <joeoshawa> that would explain alot
[05:20] <BrianEvo> •gogeta1• personally, what do you use in Ubuntu? i mean what activities do you do while using Ubuntu?
[05:20] <shjen> gogetal: Yeah, I want to transfer files from my windows box to my linux box
[05:20] <joeoshawa> it was  for a coolsat system that would never work
[05:20] <miststlkr> empathy is no longer showing in the messaging indicator, it has its own icon in the notifications applet now, how can I "fix" that?
[05:21] <gogeta1> shjen: well samba can do that just by using windows defuly sharing
[05:21] <joeoshawa> never thought about it
[05:21] <gogeta1> defult
[05:21] <joeoshawa> never really did much with it
[05:21] <v-himanshu> yes
[05:21] <joeoshawa> which may also be why the bios wouldn't see it
[05:21] <joeoshawa> corrupted
[05:21] <gogeta1> shjen: just share a folder the  in ubuntu use conect to and windows server type thenip and wala
[05:22] <joeoshawa> thank god it wasn't my 1tb drive
[05:22] <gogeta1> then
[05:22] <joeoshawa> i would lose it
[05:22] <joeoshawa> thank you so much
[05:22] <gogeta1> shjen: just tell windows you can read and write to the share
[05:22] <v-himanshu> hey, deb file is a binary distribution. right?
[05:23] <joeoshawa> wonder why the 4.2 disk wouldn't work last year
[05:23] <Conmiro> Ubuntu is not user friendly for me =\
[05:23] <gogeta1> shjen: to do it via ftp instal gftp then type your local ip into it
[05:23] <joeoshawa> it worked in my ex's
[05:23] <blackshirt> v-himanshu: maybe right..
[05:23] <joeoshawa> hers is still going strong
[05:23] <gogeta1> shjen: it should connect
[05:23] <joeoshawa> oh well
[05:23] <blackshirt> Conmiro: i think so..
[05:23] <Jordan_U> joeoshawa: You're welcome.
[05:23] <joeoshawa> thanks
[05:23] <Conmiro> I said for me, it might be for you though.
[05:24] <shjen> gogetal:  So in the windows box, put all files in the shared files folder, allow sharing, then install gftp on windows box?
[05:24] <v-himanshu> blackshirt: what else it can be
[05:24] <gogeta1> shjen: well samba you only need to use a shared folder no ftp
[05:24] <geoffmcc> host file has 3 localhost entries. Prev versions was 2. ipv4 and ipv6 --- do i need this otherone?      http://paste.ubuntu.com/528002/
[05:24] <joeoshawa> hey jordan do you know firewalls
[05:24] <gogeta1> shjen: if you whant to use ftp insteed just install gftp in ubuntu type in windows ip
[05:24] <blakkheim> why gftp?
[05:24] <v-himanshu> blackshirt: and once you download it, how do you install it?
[05:25] <Conmiro> why are some people's names red?
[05:25] <blakkheim> the built in ftp client is fine
[05:25] <gogeta1> blakkheim: will any ftp gftp is just defult gnome lol
[05:25] <gogeta1> blakkheim: i dont think ubuntu includes one and i dont think hes good with bash
[05:25] <blackshirt> v-himanshu: if you mean binary is like "executable exe " on windows..maybe true, but it can contain script, library, documentation, or maybe source
[05:25] <shjen> Gogetal: Lemme try this Samba out, I'll get back to ya.
[05:25] <blakkheim> gogeta1: there should be a built in ftp client with coreutils i thought..
[05:26] <v-himanshu> blackshirt: thanks.
[05:26] <gogeta1> blakkheim: ywwa bash based
[05:26] <blackshirt> Conmiro: i have no familiar with ubuntu to...
[05:26] <blakkheim> gogeta1: it has nothing to do with bash
[05:26] <v-himanshu> blackshirt: any idea of an irc where you can post ubuntu cde related Q
[05:26] <gogeta1> shjen: windows firewall might block samba sharing at first you will need to adjust te settings or turn it off
[05:26] <Conmiro> blackshirt I don't understand your English, sorry.
[05:27] <v-himanshu> blackshirt: s/cde/code
[05:27] <gogeta1> shjen: but as long as its on the same subne it shouldent
[05:27] <gogeta1> subnet
[05:27] <blackshirt> Conmiro : okey..
[05:28] <Conmiro> blackshirt are you going that on purpose?
[05:28] <Conmiro> doing* blackshirt
[05:28] <blackshirt> Conmiro: no
[05:28] <aeMaeth> Conmiro, normally red means they've said your name, but this can change from irc client to irc client
[05:28] <shjen> gogetal:  Heard, thanks bro.  lemme hit this up.
[05:28] <blackshirt> v-himanshu: what you mean ?? like pastebin ??
[05:29] <soulwarp> I was having a casual bath with my laptop near the edge. I shifted a bit and it fell in. I was lucky it was off at the time. What would be the command to turn the fans on to help dry the inside of it?
[05:29] <gogeta1> shjen: hears a guide with pics so you knoe what to lookfor
[05:29] <gogeta1> shjen: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/09/quickly-access-windows-shares-ubuntu-10-10-maverick-meerkat/
[05:29] <soulwarp> Should i use gkrelm?
[05:29] <joeoshawa> i was wondering (anyone) if you were going to do a hardware firewall would you just use iptables or what would be the most secure setup
[05:29] <gogeta1> shjen: just entering the ip pulls up all shares
[05:29] <blackshirt> Conwiro: sory for my bad english, i'm not naturally speak on english..
[05:29] <furryotter> hey stupid question but how do I find out where everything in a package is installed to?
[05:30] <blackshirt>  Conmiiro: sory for my bad english, i'm not naturally speak on english..
[05:30] <soulwarp> I hear Dells need to have a special plugin to run the fans
[05:30] <IdleOne> soulwarp: that isn't Ubuntu related but seriously don't turn that laptop on unless you want it to start a fire.
[05:31] <soulwarp> IdleOne, okay I'll try to get it dry first. Maybe set it out for a day
[05:31] <joeoshawa> soulwarp ewwww  not goot for the lcd
[05:31] <blackshirt> furryotter: check it with dpkg -L some-packages
[05:31] <furryotter> blackshirt: thanks
[05:31] <joeoshawa> or the rest of it for that matter just leave it out and maybe even take the hdd vid card and battery covers off and put it up
[05:31] <aeMaeth> true, the lcd could be foobar
[05:32] <joeoshawa> pray for the best
[05:32] <v-himanshu> how to install a deb file
[05:32] <v-himanshu> ?
[05:32] <blakkheim> v-himanshu: man dpkg
[05:32] <blackshirt> v-himanshu: sudo dpkg -i debfile
[05:32] <n8t_> hi all
[05:32] <blackshirt> hi
[05:32] <joeoshawa> if you can save the lappy its self you can hook it to a normal lcd or any monitor but hey maybe the lcd will be ok
[05:33] <soulwarp> I will do that. The screws are the easy part, it's the brittle plastic pieces im worried about breaking
[05:33] <joeoshawa> but take the battery out
[05:33] <joeoshawa> just leave the cards in
[05:33] <soulwarp> I havn't turned it on yet
[05:33] <joeoshawa> open the panels for ventelation
[05:33] <soulwarp> okay
[05:33] <joeoshawa> maybe aim a house fan at it
[05:34] <aeMaeth> or blow on it
[05:34] <joeoshawa> get the compressed air canasters
[05:34] <joeoshawa> but leave it for at least three days
[05:34] <gogeta1> soulwarp: most labby lcd failer is inverters
[05:34] <gogeta1> soulwarp: cheap and easy to fix
[05:35] <soulwarp> I will call dell to see it the warranty covers watter damage hah. I guess this channel isn't appropriate for this problem.
[05:35] <gogeta1> soulwarp: good way to test it take a flashlight to it if you can see a very dim display it need a inverter
[05:36] <soulwarp> gogeta1, okay
[05:36] <gogeta1> soulwarp: well waterdamaged it did ya
[05:36] <joeoshawa> sorry to hear tho
[05:36] <airtonix> !ot
[05:36] <joeoshawa> thanks again guys
[05:36] <joeoshawa> later
[05:36] <Conmiro> ubuntu :O
[05:37] <v-himanshu> will dpkg asks for installation directory? or it will install the software in the directory where the deb file s located
[05:37] <theTrav> so we're trying to build a .deb locally it works fine, but when we upload it to our repo and install it via synaptic, it sets permissions on /. to -rwx------ ... anyone ever seen that happen before? we're a bit stumped as to the cause
[05:37] <airtonix> Conmiro. do you have a Ubuntu related support question ?
[05:37] <Conmiro> can ubuntu run on 64mb of ram?
[05:37] <gogeta1> soulwarp: well ifyou can see soething with a lightsource it needs a lcd bulb or inverter but lcd bulbs rarly go
[05:37] <airtonix> Conmiro, depends... but yes.
[05:37] <airtonix> !ot | gogeta1
[05:38] <rooks> !micro
[05:38] <Conmiro> Can it run on it wit celeron proccessor
[05:38] <Conmiro> ?
[05:38] <aeMaeth> gogeta1, what if i have two blue lines?
[05:38] <v-himanshu> i want to install in lets say /usr/local and my deb file is /<my-home>. Shall I copy the deb file in /usr/local to do the installation via dpkg?
[05:38] <airtonix> Conmiro, yes i have done this before... (but you'll have to use a less resource intensive desktop like openbox)
[05:39] <airtonix> aeMaeth, take it to #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware
[05:40] <umer-siddiqui> best project managment web base tool for small team
[05:40] <theTrav> I guess we are installing via dpkg -i so does anyone know where I can find out specifically what command synaptic / apt is using?
[05:41] <Conmiro> Is there a channel for general computer questions and if so how do I change channels?
[05:41] <Jordan_U> airtonix: You can't change the install prefix of a binary .deb file. You'd need to modify the source package and rebuild it. Why do you want it in /usr/local/ ?
[05:41] <shjen> gogetal:  Woooo dude I figured it out.  Thank you!
[05:41] <airtonix> Jordan_U, ?
[05:41] <shjen> Bastid: Wooo!  Thank you thank you!
[05:41] <EvilPhoenix> where do I go to suggest a package to add to the repositories, and to suggest removal of outdated packages?
[05:42] <Jordan_U> v-himanshu: You can't change the install prefix of a binary .deb file. You'd need to modify the source package and rebuild it. Why do you want it in /usr/local/ ?
[05:42] <Sabri> Can I create a custom LiveDVD of Ubuntu 10.10 that maps /home to a CF installed on my IDE channel?
[05:42] <Jordan_U> airtonix: Sorry, wrong nick.
[05:42] <soulwarp> Conmiro, ubuntu can run on 64mb of ram without gui
[05:42] <Conmiro> ok
[05:42] <EvilPhoenix> !maverick | Sabri
[05:42] <airtonix> Conmiro, i think if you've registered your nickname with freenode you can join #hardware by typing : /join #hardware
[05:42] <EvilPhoenix> oh dear
[05:42] <EvilPhoenix> i missed the release date
[05:42] <EvilPhoenix> :P
[05:43] <Mytos> so, im using a guide to build from a git repo, and for some reason now i cant use any commands in terminal
[05:43] <EvilPhoenix> in any case
[05:43] <FloodBot3> EvilPhoenix: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:43] <airtonix> ...
[05:43] <EvilPhoenix> Sabri:  you can manually specify partitions during install, so you don't need to edit the ISO
[05:43]  * airtonix destroys EvilPhoenixs Enter Key
[05:43] <shashwat> Can anyone here solve my query about OpenOffice Impress?
[05:43] <Sabri> I don't want to install it.  I want to boot from the LiveDVD without installing, and make it customized with the packages I want.
[05:44] <airtonix> shashwat, you'll need to repeat it instead of asking if anyone was around long enough to know what you're talkign about
[05:44] <Mytos> i added export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin to .bashrc and i cant fix it
[05:44] <Sabri> EvilPhoenix, I have it installed right now.  The problem is I have it installed to a USB SATA drive because I don't have an IDE HDD.  Only an IDE CF device.
[05:45] <kirkm> Can someone recommend an irc ubuntu channel for music?
[05:45] <airtonix> !ot | kirkm
[05:45] <EvilPhoenix> Sabri:  well then I dont think anyone has an answer for you then :/
[05:45] <EvilPhoenix> anyways, where can I recommend packages to be added to the repositories?
[05:45] <kirkm> airtonix: thanks
[05:45] <airtonix> EvilPhoenix, make a request somewhere on launchpad i think
[05:45] <Jordan_U> Sabri: You can do a full install to the CF card.
[05:46] <EvilPhoenix> airtonix:  yeah but WHERE on launchpad
[05:46] <CarlFK> kirkm: like creating music with #rosegarden, or listening with #mplayer?
[05:46] <airtonix> EvilPhoenix, MOTU ?
[05:46] <kirkm> creating music
[05:46] <kirkm> i just downloaded hyrdogen.. it reminds me of fruityloops
[05:46] <Sabri> Jordan_U, the CF isn't large enough for my install.  That's why I want to create a custom LiveDVD.  I just want /home mapped to the CF.
[05:46] <shashwat> k, does ne1 know how to add a custom Animation along with a sound (like the sound starts along with ANi.1 and ends with animation 20 (playing its full legnth)) in Open Office Impress?
[05:46] <flyguy> so windows and unix each have a file length limitation of 255, Is there a way around this? It ought to be 1000+ or so
[05:47] <aeMaeth> kirkm, lmms is like that too
[05:47] <Mytos> anybody know git pretty well awake?
[05:47] <airtonix> EvilPhoenix, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[05:47] <EvilPhoenix> Mytos:  sorta, why what do you need
[05:47] <Gate> Mytos: I know a little git, whats up?
[05:47] <EvilPhoenix> airtonix: thanks
[05:47] <BrianEvo> hey guys i decided to go ahead and install and try ubuntu tomorrow, but i would like to install it on the same computer where i used windows on, what is the disadvantage of having two OS in computers? i really dont know how this works
[05:47] <chengdan> 这是什么东西
[05:47] <kirkm> aeMaeth: not familiar with lmms
[05:47] <chengdan> I‘m from China
[05:47] <Mytos> when i add export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin to .bashrc do i change it or just use that exactly?
[05:48] <xangua> BrianEvo: i know no disadvantage
[05:48] <aeMaeth> kirkm, i'm not very good at using fruity loops, so it's not like i can go into detail about sound words, but to me it was the same program
[05:48] <Jordan_U> !cn | chengdan
[05:48] <Sabri> BrianEvo, use a LiveCD to try Ubuntu.  You won't need to install until you're comfortable with it.
[05:48] <kirkm> BrianEvo: no disadvantage.. that i can think of.. except for the fact that i did the same thing then never logged into windows
[05:48] <airtonix> Mytos, you're better off putting that in ~/.profile instead.
[05:48] <tecnico> flyguy: why in the world would u want a 100+ filename?
[05:48] <BrianEvo> lol at kirkm
[05:48] <Mytos> how would i do that?
[05:48] <Maiku5an> Ello
[05:48] <airtonix> Mytos, same way you did with ~/.bashrc
[05:48] <BrianEvo> well I would just like to just play around with it
[05:48] <user88> i deleted my home folder and i don't kno how i can recover it
[05:48] <kirkm> aeMaeth: not familiar with sound words.. is that lmms
[05:48] <Jordan_U> user88: How did you delete it?
[05:48] <Mytos> that doesnt answer my question
[05:49] <user88> i need help
[05:49] <airtonix> Mytos, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#Persistent environment variables
[05:49] <Sabri> !livecd | BrianEvo
[05:49] <Maiku5an> How can I check if ubuntu is utilizing all if the ram on my pc?
[05:49] <CarlFK> kirkm: #rosegarden #ubuntustudio
[05:49] <BrianEvo> I see I read about that
[05:49] <soulwarp> user88, what did you do to delete it?
[05:49] <BrianEvo> but my other concern
[05:49] <Gate> user88: just state your problem
[05:50] <BrianEvo> lets just say I install ubuntu, and i plan to have dual os, swithcing back and forth and etc
[05:50] <kirkm> CarlFK: thanks
[05:50] <aeMaeth> kirkm, you said fruity loops right?  i need to try hydrogen.  I'm just saying Lmms is another clone
[05:50] <user88> I have no idea all i kno is that it wont open and theres nothing in it now
[05:50] <BrianEvo> how is the harddrive going to be shared?
[05:50] <Gate> user88: what won't open?
[05:50] <Loof> I'm having a lot of trouble mounting my NAS via NFS on Ubuntu 10.10. Same config worked fine on Centos.
[05:50] <billy_> how do you include an end of line in search & replace patterns in gedit or geany?
[05:50] <Loof> I've been doing some searches and there are vague references to an issue... but none of the 'fixes' seem to help.
[05:50] <Loof> Anyone on that can help me diagnose the issue?
[05:50] <kirkm> aeMaeth: i need some headphones so i can really hear Hydrogen well... my computer speaker.. does not do it justice
[05:50] <soulwarp> Gate, he says he deleted his home folder and he doesn't know how he did it
[05:51] <user88> well theres no folders in it and i get a error messege when i go to open it im a noob
[05:51] <shashwat> chengdan: 请用英语交谈，没有人懂中文在这里.... （使用 gtranslate）
[05:51] <kirkm> i am trying to get TerminatorX to work.. but it has not yet
[05:51] <tecnico> BrianEvo: what you want is a livecd with persistent changes. There are howtos for doing it with Knoppix, gentoo and others.. I'm not familiar with ubuntu yet to tell you how to do it but sometimes on the livecds you have a "boot with persistent" option
[05:51] <BrianEvo> lets say i have 300gb hard drive, and with windows i have used 150gb, and then i install Ubuntu, how much space or harddrive would it show in Ubuntu?
[05:51] <prtylghts> so i just tried to install a program with software center and my program froze at 50%, i have no idea how to stop the process so that i can download other programs. there is no option to kill it on the screen, tried xkill and tried restarting gmp
[05:51] <user88> it just says file not found when i chick on home folder
[05:51] <Gate> oh
[05:51] <chengdan> I know
[05:51] <Loof> mount.nfs: requested NFS version or transport protocol is not supported
[05:51] <xangua> BrianEvo: the space you want to give it, blablabla
[05:52] <BrianEvo> ok so when i install ubuntu
[05:52] <BrianEvo> it would tell me how much space i have left
[05:52] <Jordan_U> user88: My guess is that you have a separate /home partition that simply isn't mounting for some reason. Can you pastebin the contents of /etc/fstab?
[05:52] <BrianEvo> then i have the right to choose how much space i would like to make for ubuntu?
[05:52] <BrianEvo> is that right
[05:52] <prtylghts> anyone know how to kill the install process for that program
[05:52] <user88> I how do i do that
[05:52] <CarlFK> BrianEvo: the ubuntu installer can resize your widnows c: to make room for ubuntu. defrag in widnows first, and try to make sure the green "unmovable files" are all on the lower end of the chart
[05:53] <shebang_wafflesa> what program are you trying to kill an install process for?
[05:53] <user88> the only OS on my comp is Ubuntu 10.10
[05:54] <CarlFK> BrianEvo: what you say is basically right.
[05:54] <shashwat> does ne1 know how to add a custom Animation along with a sound (like the sound starts along with ANi.1 and ends with animation 20 (playing its full legnth)) in Open Office Impress?
[05:54] <BrianEvo> oh ok thanks :)
[05:55] <kirkm> BrianEvo: don't install windows... break free of Bill Gates grasp... you can do it.. take a deep breath... you have the power
[05:55] <user88> Jordan_U do you have any other ideas
[05:55] <soulwarp> user88, open your terminal. type cat /etc/fstab
[05:55] <soulwarp> user88, then use pastebin
[05:55] <tecnico> shashwat: make a video and embed it
[05:55] <soulwarp> !pastebin | user88
[05:56] <user88> no such file or directory
[05:56] <BrianEvo> hehe
[05:56] <Gate> :o
[05:56] <user88> what do you mena im lost sorry and very new
[05:56] <thecdggseries> hi
[05:57] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: type ps -A and look for the name of the program. on the far left of the screen you should see a number, type "kill" and then that number
[05:57] <thecdggseries> I installed ubuntu netbook
[05:57] <soulwarp> user88, cat /etc/fstab
[05:57] <thecdggseries> but now
[05:57] <soulwarp> user88, into the command terminal
[05:57] <thecdggseries> it say the next error:
[05:57] <bazhang> !enter | thecdggseries
[05:58] <user88> ok now it came up
[05:58] <thecdggseries> well
[05:58] <shashwat> tecnico : Video of?
[05:58] <user88> the first time i typed it it didnt work now what
[05:58] <tecnico> animation + sound..     just a suggestion.
[05:58] <thecdggseries> it say the symbol  "grub_xputs" not found
[05:58] <soulwarp> user88, now you copy the results and use pastebin to show us what it looks like
[05:59] <Jordan_U> thecdggseries: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[05:59] <soulwarp> user88, http://paste.ubuntu.com
[05:59] <thecdggseries> partittions
[05:59] <thecdggseries> for windows
[05:59] <thecdggseries> and the ubuntu
[06:00] <user88> i pasted it
[06:00] <bazhang> thecdggseries, stop with the enter key
[06:00] <user88> do i hit download as text
[06:00] <prtylghts> i'm trying to stop libqt4-sql-mysql
[06:00] <prtylghts> it froze at 50%
[06:01] <MattQC> Oh hey
[06:01] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: do you know the name of the process?
[06:01] <EvilPhoenix> prtylghts:  explain "stop"
[06:01] <Callum__> grrr, the PA Sound Preferences are so annoying to set up surround sound levels with
[06:01] <soulwarp> user88, no you simply copy the url and paste it here
[06:01] <prtylghts> as in kill the process
[06:01] <prtylghts> its still in my software center and i cant dl anything else because it is stuck
[06:02] <wang2> hey does anyone here use network manager to manage vpnc under ubuntu 10.10?
[06:02] <MattQC> Is anybody running a ThinkPad by chance?
[06:02] <EvilPhoenix> prtylghts:  then its using dpkg, but if you kill it mid install it might not work anymore correctly
[06:02] <blakkheim> !anyone
[06:02] <shebang_wafflesa> It sounds like your software manager program hung up. Try restarting it
[06:02] <prtylghts> i don't actually need the program. I was dling it because it was a suggest package to amarok, which I am also having problems with >.<
[06:02] <MattQC> I'm not liking that software manage very much
[06:03] <shashwat> tecnico : The point is that i wanted to make a Who wants to be a millionaire powerpoint and when options come the sound "ask_full_legnth" will start till the clock ends and the slide becomes empty to show a message!!
[06:03] <Jordan_U> thecdggseries: Try booting from the USB drive you used to install. Does it boot into the live environment like you'd expect or does it now boot into the installed Ubuntu?
[06:03] <prtylghts> i also don't have dpkg in my system monitor
[06:03] <wang2> I am using vpnc and network-manager but it refuses to store my group password and I get 'failed because there were no VPN secrets'
[06:03] <thecdggseries> Jordan_U: live
[06:03] <SomKen> how do you run the initial postfix config?
[06:04] <tecnico> shashwat: may have better luck at some openoffice irc channel
[06:04] <shashwat> k technico thnx
[06:04] <Jordan_U> thecdggseries: Can you run boot info script, as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ?
[06:05] <thecdggseries> ok
[06:05] <prtylghts> anyone have any idea how i can kill that process?
[06:05] <shebang_wafflesa> prty, if you're having trouble killing a process, you might need root priviledges to kill it
[06:06] <taofd> help! i'm getting a glib pwuid error and cannot boot
[06:06] <prtylghts> i can do that, i just need to be pointed in the direction of exactly *how* to do that
[06:07] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: do you know what programm you're trying to kill?
[06:07] <taofd> can anyone help? i am getting a GLib-warning pwuid failed due to unknown user id error and cannot boot, i have to ctrl+alt+del to restart, I can't even access a term
[06:08] <prtylghts> it's the install process for stop libqt4-sql-mysql
[06:08] <prtylghts> software center just says "installing packages / applying changes"
[06:08] <SomKen> how do you run the initial postfix setup?  I messed up my config bad.
[06:08] <prtylghts> it's said that for several hours now
[06:08] <shebang_wafflesa> do you know what package manager you;re using to install it?
[06:08] <taofd> can anyone help? i am getting a GLib-warning pwuid failed due to unknown user id error and cannot boot, i have to ctrl+alt+del to restart, I can't even access a term can someone point me in the right direction to get things working again?
[06:09] <dhruvasagar> Hi, I have paired with my mobile phone over bluetooth
[06:09] <prtylghts> i just installed the program through the software center
[06:09] <dhruvasagar> but when I run hcitool scan, it doesn't show up
[06:09] <prtylghts> i have tried killing that, and restarting gmp
[06:09] <prtylghts> neither stopped the install process
[06:09] <dhruvasagar> if I do sdptool search DUN
[06:09] <dhruvasagar> nothing comes up
[06:10] <taofd> can anyone help? i am getting a GLib-warning pwuid failed due to unknown user id error and cannot boot, i have to ctrl+alt+del to restart, I can't even access a term can someone point me in the right direction to get things working again?
[06:11] <irssi_> taofd: boot off of a livecd?
[06:11] <taofd> irssi_, i am on a live cd
[06:11] <taofd> irssi_, i want to *fix* the problem, not reformat
[06:11] <thecdggseries> Jordan_U: I know what was the problem I did not installed the grub right
[06:11] <tecnico> taofd: seems to have something to do with the boot splash. Try disabling it and also disable the quiet boot when you get to the grub menu to see more info hopefully. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1534909
[06:11] <irssi_> taofd: you should be able to access your data
[06:11] <n0lan1> taofd: the problem is that your CD has errors. try burning a new one at a lower speed, like 12x
[06:11] <thecdggseries> so thaks
[06:12] <taofd> tecnico, tried disabling boot splash, doesn't work
[06:12] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: open up your terminal and type ps -A, look for a process that you think is related to the software center. At the far left you should see a number for that process. type "sudo kill (thatnummber)"
[06:12] <taofd> n0lan1, i tested integrity, it passed fine
[06:12] <taofd> irssi_, my home drive is encrypted
[06:13] <irssi_> taofd: impressive
[06:13] <ki__> If I do an alt+shift+F2 while I have the gui open on F1 ... the gui crashes in F1 when I go back. How can i recover it?
[06:13] <taofd> irssi_, T_T
[06:13] <sgerbino> irssi awesome?
[06:14] <prtylghts> shebang_wafflesa: what should i even be looking for?
[06:14] <shebang_wafflesa> ki, try doing ctrl+alt+F9
[06:14] <OY1R> anyone had issues with 10.10 and volume control? my volume is strange it does not work on the built in subwoofer very good, it either on or it's off
[06:14] <sgerbino> anyone know how I can unhide my grub2 menu with maverick?
[06:14] <RodrigoElWholer> ha-ha! :P
[06:15] <taofd> a lot of other people on the forums seem to think that the GLib error is a generic error and can't figure out what's causing it... i was hoping someone would know what the heck is going on
[06:15] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: i'm not sure. probably apt or software center. anything that's a package manager. i don't run ubuntu, so i'm only guessing :\
[06:15] <tecnico> sgerbino: I imagine somewhere in /etc/default/grub
[06:15] <sgerbino> tecnico: i been playing with that file, i removed the 'quiet' part but nothing
[06:16] <prtylghts> if i kill software center, it still runs when i re-open the software center. it doesn't change anything...
[06:16] <urssi> taofd: well, generically, "did anything happen before this error?"
[06:16] <tecnico> you have to run update-grub / update-grub2 after that maybe??
[06:16] <bastid_raZor> sgerbino: hold shift on boot,
[06:16] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: It still tries to install that package?
[06:16] <sgerbino> bastid_raXor: i rather just display it
[06:17] <taofd> urssi, not to my knowledge
[06:17] <prtylghts> yeah. its still stuck at 50%
[06:17] <taofd> urssi, is there a way to check my apt install history using CL?
[06:17] <tecnico> prtylghts: did you try xkill like somebody suggested hours ago?
[06:17] <prtylghts> yes i did. and again, all that did was kill the software center
[06:18] <prtylghts> i dont have an actual window where i see it installing except software center
[06:18] <rigved> hi everyone
[06:19] <tecnico> prtylghts: you can try a long shot like:   ps auxf |grep <part of package name>
[06:19] <Richie086> taofd: apt-cache pkgnames
[06:19] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: You're just trying to install amarok right? And you're problem is that it's hanging up on a certain package?
[06:19] <prtylghts> Well I am having other problems with amarok, which I was trying to fix by installing packages that it may need... and this was one of those packages.
[06:20] <tecnico> prtylghts: if that returns something, get the number to the left (first column) and do "kill -HUP <numbeR>"  or if you feel adventurous try "kill -9 number"  ..@ your own risk
[06:20] <Richie086> taofd: or aptitude search '~i'
[06:20] <rigved> i want to share files between my two ubuntu 10.04 machines. i have tried rsync. but i get a error: remote host refused connection. how do i allow connections?
[06:20] <tecnico> did u enable ssh rigved
[06:20] <shebang_wafflesa> Maybe prty should try apt-get -f amarok.
[06:21] <IceGuest_75> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:21] <bastid_raZor> rigved: both  ubuntu machines need openssh-server installed
[06:21] <rigved> tecnico: how do i do that
[06:21] <tecnico> apt-get install openssh-server
[06:21] <tecnico> on both systems like bastid_raZor said
[06:21] <prtylghts> tecnico i did that and i have two different things, one is a process and one has a really long file-name... kill the process?
[06:21] <rigved> bastid_raZor: ok. i'll install ssh server
[06:22] <Richie086> rigved: on both machines
[06:22] <shebang_wafflesa> Ubuntu doesn't have ssh by default?
[06:22] <tecnico> prtylghts: without knowing what the process / name / u r seeing on your screen.. it's hard to tell u
[06:22] <rigved> bastid_raZor, bastid_raZor, Richie086: thank you for your help. i'll install it right now
[06:22] <aeMaeth> it has the client by default
[06:23] <taofd> Richie086, thx ill try that, although i don't have aptitude installed on 10.10
[06:23] <rigved> tecnico: thank you for your help. i'll install it right now
[06:23] <bastid_raZor> shebang_wafflesa: it has ssh but not the server which receives ssh connections
[06:23] <prtylghts> tecnico: libqt4-sql-mysql .. it's a different package i guess
[06:23] <prtylghts> wait no, that's the right one :
[06:23] <shebang_wafflesa> Ohh... so THAT's why i can't connect to my bro's Ubuntu machine. I always assumed that it had it by default
[06:24] <urssi> shebang_wafflesa: nmap -p 22 brothers_machine
[06:24] <airtonix> shebang_wafflesa, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[06:24] <tecnico> prtylghts: is that the package that you were trying to install?
[06:24] <Infra_3600> taofd, sudo less /var/log/apt/term.log ?
[06:25] <shebang_wafflesa> Yeah i know. I guess that's actually a good idea for a desktop oriented distro.
[06:25] <prtylghts> tecnico: yes
[06:25] <tecnico> what does the last column on that line say prtylghts
[06:25] <taofd> Infra_3600, sorry what would that be for?
[06:26] <Infra_3600> taofd, <taofd> urssi, is there a way to check my apt install history using CL? 0_o
[06:26] <bastid_raZor> taofd: that is a safe command, it will display the logfile allowing you to read it
[06:27] <taofd> Infra_3600, ah thx, i wasn't sure what it was in response to :)
[06:27] <taofd> bastid_raZor, yeah, i got it, thanks :D
[06:27] <Infra_3600> taofd, and gzipped rotate  in /var/log/apt too
[06:27] <prtylghts> "21728 0.0 0.0 3324 784 pts/5 S+ 00:26 0:00 \_ grep libqt4-sql-mysql
[06:28] <prtylghts> minus hte first "
[06:28] <tecnico> prtylghts: that process corresponds to the grep itself of the command you are just now typying.. so that's not it
[06:29] <bastid_raZor> prtylghts: if that is all that is displayed then that is only showing you looking for that file.. it does not mean it is running
[06:29] <shebang_wafflesa> try the other PIaD prty
[06:29] <prtylghts> haha. ok, well there is also a really long line above that
[06:29] <shebang_wafflesa> PID**
[06:29] <prtylghts> running under root too .... PID?
[06:30] <hei> exit
[06:30] <shebang_wafflesa> you saw two process, right? kill the process that doesn't have  grep in it
[06:30] <shebang_wafflesa> process ID, that's the number of the process if im not mistaken
[06:30] <tecnico> prtylghts: you know that you could've rebooted a million times by now since you first asked about this... :)
[06:30] <tecnico> that'll kill it for sure
[06:30] <user88> sorry i had some diffaculty with the screen and had to quit the chat
[06:30] <airtonix> shebang_wafflesa, you can make grep return results witout the command that called grep by enclosing parts of the grep query with sqaure brackets : ls | grep [some]thing
[06:31] <taofd> so some of the last things i installed were: 7zip, telepathy-gnome, removed totem, installed languages ... could any of them relate possibly to a GLIB error?
[06:31] <shebang_wafflesa> yeah, tecnico has a point, but i think this could be a good learning experience
[06:31] <prtylghts> ok, i killed it and then restarted software center. still listed there.
[06:31] <prtylghts> :(
[06:31] <shebang_wafflesa> air, i'm trying to keep this simple. seriously though, thanks for the info
[06:31] <sosaited> is there a way during install of Ubuntu 10.10 to mount the usb drive as cdrom?
[06:31] <prtylghts> will rebooting actually quit the install? i restarted gmp
[06:32] <airtonix> prtylghts, have you tried killing by PID ? sudo kill <insert pid here minus these arrow brackets>
[06:32] <engin33r> hey everyone
[06:32] <prtylghts> yeah, just did that
[06:32] <shebang_wafflesa> air, we already tried it
[06:32] <engin33r> first time ever in an IRC chatroom :| lol im guessing everyone here uses ubuntu?
[06:32] <airtonix> prtylghts, shebang_wafflesa and have you first listed it by parent process ?
[06:32] <prtylghts> i'm really stumped and if i cant get this i cant install any new software :/
[06:33] <blakkheim> engin33r: no
[06:33] <airtonix> prtylghts, shebang_wafflesa : ps -fe | grep [thi]ngtosearchfor
[06:33] <n0lan1> yes engin33r im on ubuntu
[06:33] <shebang_wafflesa> prty: restart your comp, if you're still having an issue with it, it' has to do with the package manager
[06:33] <user88> in the term type
[06:33] <n0lan1> but not everyone on IRC does
[06:33] <zhcfreesea> prtylghts: Are you sure the pid is right?
[06:33] <tecnico> airtonix: the problem is that he's having some problems finding the right PID to kill
[06:33] <airtonix> tecnico, which you'll solve by using ps -fe .
[06:34] <zhcfreesea> use ps aux|grep ...
[06:34] <airtonix> tecnico, (it shows the parent process)
[06:34] <prtylghts> if i kill the process it is still running? uhm
[06:34] <tecnico> airtonix: I suggested something similar.. but he's kind of lost even getting a hint on what to look for
[06:34] <zhcfreesea> use kill -9
[06:34] <airtonix> prtylghts, probably because its owned by another process ?
[06:34] <user88> I deleted my home folder i need to recover it and i dont kno how and i don't kno how i did it it just says no file found when i try to open it
[06:34] <prtylghts> -9 didn't work
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> zhcfreesea: -ef is the linux standard, -aux is the bsd standard and has been rolled in but may not work on every distro you come aross, -ef will
[06:35] <zhcfreesea> kill -9 PID
[06:35] <prtylghts> its being run under the software center, its an install
[06:35] <shebang_wafflesa> then it's probably the wrong process
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> user88: use your backups
[06:35] <prtylghts> and i cant kill the install .. its stuck on 50%
[06:35] <user88> how
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> user88: how do you backup your data?
[06:35] <prtylghts> ok, so then restart is still my best option. bbiab
[06:35] <airtonix> prtylghts, you trying to kill the thing running isntall of "libqt4-sql-mysql"  ?
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> prtylghts: check cd for defects
[06:36] <user88> no how can i restore my home folder
[06:36] <airtonix> user88, with great difficulty if you did not make backups
[06:36] <user88> fresh install 3 days ago
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> user88: if you use rsync to backup (for example) you can just reverse the command
[06:36] <bobthemilkman> Uh oh.
[06:37] <airtonix> user88, next time round i suggest you install and setup "BackInTime"
[06:37] <user88> i dont want to had to reformat agin
[06:37] <bobthemilkman> I just did an rm -rf fort.13 * instead of rm -rf fort.13*. What's the most reliable way to get that data back?
[06:37] <bobthemilkman> Oh wait, I have a backup in my ~/.vim folder.
[06:37] <bobthemilkman> Thanks vim.
[06:37] <user88> any other ideas how to restore my deleted home folder
[06:37] <airtonix> user88, even if you do recover your data, i suggest you install that program... (itmakes it redicously easy for novices to restore data)
[06:38] <zhcfreesea> bobthemilkman: Rabbits got at least 3 holes :-)
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> user88: you don't just boot to root recovery mode and run:mkdir /home/yourusername ,then reboot
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> michaelrose: don't away like that please
[06:38] <airtonix> user88, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[06:39] <zhcfreesea> ActionParsnip: Thanks, I don't know different between -ef and aux before
[06:39] <tecnico> ActionParsnip: why? what's wrong? that's very common in irc
[06:39] <sunit> hello, I am trying to running few jar files in boot up in ubuntu 8.04 LTS
[06:39] <user88> what about from the termanal
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> !away > tecnico
[06:39] <airtonix> user88, *read* that page i gave you
[06:39] <tecnico> interesting
[06:39] <Sonic132> Hey guys as usual I have an issue. I followed the guide posted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10084362 specifically what WienerWuerstel posted at the end and it doesn't seem to do anything except echo the bluetooth info. What am I doing wrong? What am I missing?
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> zhcfreesea: many don't. I personally always advise the linux standard :). Its also outlined in: man ps ;)
[06:40] <sunit> I have edited rc.local file and edited file can be seen in url http://dpaste.de/F21n/
[06:40] <zhcfreesea> ActionParsip: Thanks anyway
[06:40] <Sonic132> Also, hi ActionParsnip.
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> sunit: is it to be ran after user login or during boot? Is your OS the server or is it a desktop system
[06:40] <sunit> but only first jar file saleorderupdate is running
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> Hi sonic132
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> sunit: add an ampersand to the end of each line
[06:41] <sunit> Hello ActionParsnip the os is ubuntu server
[06:41] <Sonic132> Any gamers out there want to take a whack at solving my problem?
[06:42] <sunit> ok
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> sunit: unless each command starts, does something, then stops it will hang your boot
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> Ask away sonic132
[06:42] <user88> i didnt have anything in the files
[06:42] <Sonic132> Anyone familiar with QtSixA and know what I need to get it work?
[06:42] <Sonic132> ActionParsnip: Hey guys as usual I have an issue. I followed the guide posted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10084362 specifically what WienerWuerstel posted at the end and it doesn't seem to do anything except echo the bluetooth info. What am I doing wrong? What am I missing?
[06:42] <airtonix> user88, After you resolve your data problem. I highly recommend that you start using BackInTime : http://www.howtoforge.com/creating-backups-with-back-in-time-on-an-ubuntu-9.04-desktop-p1, http://www.howtoforge.com/creating-backups-with-back-in-time-on-an-ubuntu-9.04-desktop-p2
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> user88: then just remake the folder, when you log in you will copy the files you need from skel by default
[06:43] <airtonix> user88, http://backintime.le-web.org/
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> airtonix: simple backups are fine for home users, a cheap usb storage or dvd is fine
[06:44] <user88> im a little confused on the steps from the page
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> user88: setting up backintime now won't restore any data
[06:45] <sunit> should I edit the rc.local as seen in url http://dpaste.de/OJdG/
[06:45] <zhcfreesea> Sonic132: What do you want?
[06:45] <airtonix> ActionParsnip, rsync is hardly simple for novices
[06:45] <urssi> rsnapshot is a simpler frontend to rsync
[06:45] <user88> so put in my install disk and try to recover ??
[06:46] <blakkheim> just use rsync
[06:46] <airtonix> ...
[06:46] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: What do you mean? I want the controller to work either wired, wireless, or both. But it does nothing.
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> airtonix: grsync makes it friendlier and gives the cli command which can then be cron'd
[06:46] <airtonix> which you have to cron
[06:46] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: Well nothing except flash (indicating it's charging).
[06:46] <airtonix> ActionParsnip, backintime does all of that for you
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> sunit: add one to the last line too, make sure there is a space between the command and the ampersand too
[06:47] <shebang_wafflesa> sunit, if it fails to boot properly, boot into single user mode
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> user88: just boot to root recovery mode and run: mkdir /home/username ,replace username with theusername you use in ubuntu
[06:47] <zhcfreesea> It doesn't work AFTER you update your system?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> airtonix: sure but rsyncis part of a stock install and the daemon is already running. Space may not be a luxury
[06:48] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: Did you read the article?
[06:48] <airtonix> ActionParsnip, backintime is just a frontend to rsync
[06:48] <zhcfreesea> Sonic132: Yes
[06:49] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: Any ideas? Any questions for me?
[06:49] <zhcfreesea> Sonic132: Maybe you can just boot from old kernel, all the problems would be solved
[06:49] <user88> ok ill try it when back in time finishs downloading
[06:50] <user88> so that should fix it
[06:50] <vishesh> Hi. Any idea about package with which I can play WMV files. Right now video comes but the Audio[Window Media Audio 9] codec is missing.
[06:50] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: Old kernel? You mean on startup?
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> user88: how big is it?
[06:50] <zhcfreesea> Sonic132: Yes, choose older kernel when startup
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> user88: no installing the app now will not restore any data
[06:51] <Sonic132> zhcfreesea: Worth a try I guess. I'll be back.
[06:51] <user88> no but it should help if it happens agin right
[06:51] <sunit> ActionParnsnip , please see the http://dpaste.de/Z1Xt/
[06:51] <x_or> I'm trying to install update-manager-core, but getting this:  "update-manager-core : Depends: python (< 2.6) but 2.6.6-3+squeeze1 is to be installed"  Anyone know how to resolve?
[06:51] <juk> why i can't just kill manualy daemons, but service daemo stop does
[06:51] <shebang_wafflesa> Does anyone know if you can switch between kernels while your system is booted?
[06:51] <airtonix> user88, im pretty sure i said many times that AFTER you resolve your data problems start using backintime
[06:51] <zhcfreesea> Sonic132: No, everything goes OK, and the problems would be gone
[06:51] <hagen> hi. is there any codec pack for watching movies and listening to music?
[06:51] <airtonix> !restricted | hagen
[06:51] <user88> ok thank you
[06:52] <zhcfreesea> hagen: mplayer?
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> x_or: you are using debian, which isn't supported here
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> hagen: install ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs from medibuntu repo
[06:52] <Thangalin> Hey, any apt-get gurus out there?
[06:52] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  Oh, I think this is an extra repo, I will remove that.
[06:52] <hagen> zhcfreesea ActionParsnip thanks
[06:53] <shebang_wafflesa>  Does anyone know if you can switch between kernels while your system is booted?
[06:53] <sunit> shebang_wafflesa, what shall I do ?
[06:53] <airtonix> !ask | Thangalin
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> x_or: don't mix debian repos with ubuntu ones or you'll get a mess
[06:53] <prtylghts_> ok, that worked ... :) happy happy happy
[06:53] <hagen> shebang_wafflesa nope
[06:53] <shebang_wafflesa> LOL @ prty
[06:53] <Thangalin> !ask
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> shebang_wafflesa: I believe there's a project or talk of something similar
[06:54] <prtylghts_> sheesh, stupid mistake not just doing that first
[06:54] <juk> why killing daemon just causes it to change pid?
[06:54] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  OK.  I removed that repo, but still getting an error.  Is this the mess you are referring to?
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> x_or: did you run: sudo apt-get update
[06:54] <tecnico> juk: 'cause it gets restarted and thus assigned another pid?
[06:55] <urssi> juk: it is designed to auto-restart
[06:55] <shebang_wafflesa> You can install a custom kernel on Linux when it's live without rebooting, right?
[06:55] <Thangalin> I just ran an apt-get command: $ sudo apt-get remove default-jre openjdk-6-jdk openjdk-6-jre
[06:55] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  Yes, I did.
[06:55] <greppy> shebang_wafflesa: to change the kernel, you have to reboot.
[06:55] <Thangalin> The apt-get program prompted me to install the default-jre.
[06:55] <Thangalin> Any idea why the program asked me to install something when I used "apt-get remove"?
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> x_or: this is why you don't mix. You have a mess now. I gotta switch busses. Maybe someone else can advise
[06:56] <zhcfreesea> !aptitude|Thangalin
[06:56] <zhcfreesea> Thangalin: I think aptitude is better
[06:56] <urssi> !help | urssi
[06:56] <bombshell> hello
[06:56] <Thangalin> I agree, zhcfreesea.
[06:57] <juk> tecnico: any idea how to kill daemon
[06:57] <bombshell> Is ipv6 builtin into the kernel for Ubuntu  0,04
[06:57] <bombshell> 9.04
[06:57] <greppy> bombshell: yes.
[06:57] <magn3ts> Crap, I just let my VM boot / when I was running it as the host.
[06:57] <magn3ts> I'm screwed. fsck here I come
[06:57] <tecnico> shebang_wafflesa: look at kexec.  At one time it used to be the way to switch kernels on the fly.. though I don't know what the limitations may be
[06:57] <bombshell> greppy: ahhh, that's why I couldn't find the module
[06:57] <juk> urssi: how do i kill it?
[06:57] <tecnico> juk: service <name> stop
[06:57] <shebang_wafflesa> thanks, i'll look into that
[06:58] <urssi> juk: sorry, I wasn't following along, what are you trying to kill?
[06:58] <Thangalin> Nice. Aptitude worked as expected, thanks. :-)
[06:58] <zhcfreesea> !php
[06:59] <zhcfreesea> !php-memcache
[06:59] <juk> tecnico: so service kills it somehow, it need to see how it does it, thanks
[06:59] <Thangalin> Here's another stinker: how do you get windows  to display the window size while resizing?  What do you need?
[07:02] <zhcfreesea> I've got a problem also. The newest version of Python on my machine is 2.6, and I still have Python2.5. There're some package depends on python<2.6, and it can't be installed by apt, what can I do?
[07:02] <sunit> you told me to --  if it fails to boot properly, boot into single user mode
[07:02] <urssi> zhcfreesea: install from source?
[07:03] <sunit> what shall I do ?
[07:03] <shebang_wafflesa> sunit, add & to the end of each line of the processes you want to run (like someone here already mentioned) and reboot. If your machine fails to boot, boot into recovery mode and edit the file again
[07:03] <jfer> hi, where is a list of all the sections available for use in a control file
[07:03] <shebang_wafflesa> Only boot into single user if it fails to boot
[07:03] <Yerushalmi> Hey folks. I recently repartitioned the drive with my swap partition on it, and with help from this channel updated my fstab so my computer would know where my new swap partition is. I can now enter hibernate just fine again - but the computer doesn't start up from the hibernated state. Is there some other file I need to update?
[07:03] <sunit> ok
[07:03] <juk> urssi: tecnico: same, it's just hops among pids
[07:04] <urssi> juk: what is this program?
[07:04] <tecnico> juk, then something else is restarting it
[07:04] <sunit> but , I have reboot the machine, and its running
[07:04] <zhcfreesea> urssi: It is a solution, but I'm not sure whether they can works together well.
[07:04] <zhcfreesea> compize
[07:04] <zhcfreesea> I want to install compiz-manager
[07:05] <sunit> Thanks shebang
[07:05] <shebang_wafflesa> no problem
[07:05] <tecnico> juk, you can see if it has a parent process and kill the parent (as long as it's not something "init"  or your bash shell
[07:06] <sosaited> What command can I use when in the beginning of installing 10.10 to mount usb drive or hard drive's root as cdrom?
[07:06] <Lanlost> Hey
[07:06] <sandGorgon> is anyone using maverick with 2.6.36 kernel ? anyone know how to upgrade ?
[07:06] <gogeta1> sosaited: as cdrom?
[07:07] <sipho__> Morning everyone
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> sosaited: just plug one in and it should mount. If you press ctrl+alt+t you can launch nautilus and access there
[07:07] <gogeta1> sosaited: do you mean a usb intstall?
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> !info linux-image
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> sandGorgon: that kernel isn't in the repo so isnt supported here
[07:08] <Lanlost> I'm trying to make a bash script that only displays output if at least one file exists. For example. I want to do "ls *.iso | grep -n ." to display "1: someiso.iso \n 2: anotheriso.iso" BUT if there weren't any then I get "ls: cannot access *.iso no such file or directory" which, in the middle of a bash script, seems so ugly
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> sandGorgon: there is a kernel ppa but its very experimental
[07:08] <gogeta1> Lanlost: you need to give it a folder to ls
[07:08] <tecnico> Lanlost: add 2>/dev/null  at the end of the command to send stderr to the limbo
[07:08] <juk> tecnico: killall5 caused restartin machine :p
[07:08] <sandGorgon> ActionParsnip, allright thanks. I am desperate to try something to get suspend/resume on my E6410 laptop
[07:08] <sosaited> gogeta1: Yeah I am trying a usb install of 10.10 via unetbootin on win7, but I keep getting error reading data from cdrom. I tried adding cdrom-detect/try-usb=true in the boot menu option but still same
[07:09] <Lanlost> any idea how to use something like if [ -f `ls *.iso | grep -m1 .` ] then; echo `ls *.iso | grep -n .`; fi  .. that's basically what I want to do but it doens't work.
[07:09] <Lanlost> oh my god
[07:09] <gogeta1> sosaited: eeeror normaly mean bad iso or the unetbooten conversion whent wrong
[07:09] <Lanlost> tecnico, what an obvious answer
[07:09] <tecnico> juk, what did you kill?  I was trying to prevent that when I told you not to kill "init" or your bash
[07:09] <Lanlost> for that part at least
[07:09] <shebang_wafflesa> sosaited, you might have a bad cd
[07:09] <gogeta1> sosaited: md5 your iso make shure it didnt get cruppted
[07:10] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: i'd ask in #bash
[07:10] <Lanlost> gogeta1, what? It lses in the current directory. I want it to work from any directory. Obviously you DO get results if you are in a directory with isos but if you aren't then you get that text instead
[07:10] <Lanlost> wow, I didn't know there WAS a #bash. Freenode has everything
[07:10] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: its the biggest and one of the oldest in town
[07:11] <gogeta1> Lanlost: unless your script is ran in the same dir it need to be told where to go
[07:11] <gogeta1> Lanlost: acully it aalways does
[07:11] <Lanlost> fyi tecnico, it would be ls *.iso 2>/dev/null; grep -n .
[07:11] <sosaited> gogeta1: I did check the md5 before
[07:11] <juk> tecnico: thank you, it was systemui in n900, nokia
[07:11] <gogeta1> Lanlost: scripts just fir the term its normaly alsways in your home dir
[07:11] <Lanlost> gogeta1, what?
[07:12] <Thangalin> How do you configure Logitech's USB Marble Mouse for scrolling in 10.10? The instructions for 10.04 (and earlier) no longer work. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Logitech_Marblemouse_USB
[07:12] <shebang_wafflesa> Lan: what are you trying to do?
[07:12] <gogeta1> Lanlost: screipts are like .bat
[07:12] <Lanlost> what you said isn't true
[07:12] <sosaited> gogeta1: I also tried installing from hard drive, then I get the error " can't mount cdrom :
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> gogeta1: if ls is used the interpreter will use pwd as the folder
[07:12] <Lanlost> I did ~/myscript.sh  in the directory with the .iso and it works fine.. I do the exact same command from another directory and it gives the error
[07:13] <juk> tecnico: but i had exactly same problem in ubunut, i was trying to kill ssh no way, untill i did service stop
[07:13] <Lanlost> I'm telling you that it's not going to ls the home directory regardless.. You can call it and it will ls wherever you called it from
[07:13] <gogeta1> sosaited: sounds like it didnt get sent to the usv device correctly
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: its using pwd as the folder for ls in the script
[07:13] <shebang_wafflesa> Lan, try spelling put the full path
[07:13] <gogeta1> sosaited: format the usb stick and try again
[07:13] <Yerushalmi> I recently repartitioned the drive with my swap partition on it, and with help from this channel updated my fstab so my computer would know where my new swap partition is. I can now enter hibernate just fine again - but the computer doesn't start up from the hibernated state, rather does a normal startup. Is there some other file I need to update?
[07:13] <x_or> I guess I really screwed things up with my python installation by using a debian repo.  Can anyone point out a way I could start to resolve this?
[07:13] <Lanlost> why does everyone keep telling me to GIVE the path?
[07:13] <Lanlost> I specifically DO NOT want to do that
[07:13] <tecnico> juk, so u r good now?
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> X_or: sounds usuaal, yes
[07:13] <blackshirt> x_or: are you using debian repo ??
[07:14] <gogeta1> sosaited: make shure your using the latest uetbootin
[07:14] <sosaited> gogeta1: I already did twice.
[07:14] <juk> tecnico: yep, o_0, thank you
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: I never did, I simply said it will use pwd for the ls
[07:14] <gogeta1> sosaited: then your iso is bad
[07:14] <Lanlost> This script is for my gf. She has trouble converting .isos to .bin/.cue (why? the reason is a long story, just trust me)
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> blackshirt: s/he did yes
[07:14] <x_or> blackshirt:  I had used a repo which I did not realize was a debian repo.  It  was for a piece of software called erlyvideo.
[07:14] <Lanlost> so I have the script tell her exactly what command she would have to run
[07:15] <blackrock> Hello, how do you add keyboard layout change shortcut?
[07:15] <sosaited> gogeta1: But why will it give different cdrom related errors depending on if installing from usb or hard drive.?
[07:15] <Lanlost> echo	"Simply type: ./convert.sh `ls *.iso | grep -m1 .` /path/to/output";
[07:15] <gogeta1> sosaited: couse the iso is junk
[07:15] <sipho__> I need to contact pootle developers. I have been serching for their contacts in their website, but can't find any. Can someone help
[07:15] <Lanlost> that's what I have and told her just to run ~/convert.sh, which works
[07:15] <Lanlost> if she runs it in a directory with an iso then it displays the line correctly
[07:15] <airtonix> !who
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> blackrock: I believe in the keyboard settings app (one of the 2) you can have it change with a key combo
[07:16] <gogeta1> sosaited: usb installs get mounted as loopback devices so the system sees it as cdrom
[07:16] <Lanlost> it will output: Simply type: ./convert.sh someiso.iso /path/to/output
[07:17] <sosaited> gogeta1: Can the Iso be bad even if md5 are identical?
[07:17] <Lanlost> if I do it from a directory that DOESN'T have isos in it it does this:
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: then you will need to either hard code the directory or have the script accept a folder path as an arg. I'd ask in #bash ,those guys have skills
[07:17] <x_or> Can I force reinstall of python?
[07:17] <Lanlost> ls: cannot access *.iso: No such file or directory
[07:17] <Lanlost> Simply type: ./convert.sh  /path/to/output
[07:17] <gogeta1> sosaited: not unerd of
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> x_or: it might get messy but sure
[07:17] <gogeta1> unherd
[07:17] <Lanlost> Which I'd rather have it just display "No ISOs in the current directory."
[07:17] <Lanlost> ActionParsnip, that is ridiculous and NOT true
[07:17] <gogeta1> sosaited: could just by 1 byte off messing up everything
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: what isn't true?
[07:18] <Lanlost> any of it except the #bash part
[07:18] <sosaited> gogeta1: But it starts the install, asks for language and keyboard selections etc. .. I will try downloading a dekstop version instead then..
[07:18] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  what flags should I use for apt-get, -f?
[07:18] <Lanlost> why would I have to a) hard code a directory OR accept a folder path as an arg
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> Lanlost: in an irc channel, you can't use words like "that" without context
[07:18] <gogeta1> sosaited: well any new iso just from a diffrent mirror
[07:18] <slide> Does anyone know if there is a way to fix the single pixel that is used for resizing windows? It's almost impossible to grab the edge of a window
[07:18] <Damascene> Hi, I've problem with my mouse going to the most left and most right in wired way when I move it and I can't control it. then after a while it calm down.
[07:18] <sosaited> gogeta1: Ok, Thanks.
[07:18] <airtonix> slide, use the alt + middle click to resize windows
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> x_or: sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename
[07:18] <Lanlost> If I hard code the folder path then that get's rid of the entire point of this working from any directory. And having to accept the folder path as an argument
[07:19] <slide> airtonix, laptop doesnt have middle click
[07:19] <gogeta1> sosaited: if it still fails then its another issue but 90% of the time its a junk iso
[07:19] <airtonix> slide, yes it does... click both buttons
[07:19] <ActionParsnip> Damascene: is your phone near the wire?
[07:19] <Lanlost> .. doesn't make sense. Why? ls automatically lists the current directory. I might as well just use ls `pwd` .. which is exactly what it does automatically anyway
[07:19] <slide> airtonix, yea thats easy, alt + left + right mouse button  while moving single finger along trackpad.........
[07:19] <Damascene> ActionParsnip, no
[07:19] <airtonix> slide, or you can change this shortcut in keybaord preferences
[07:20] <tecnico> Lanlost: for your own benefit, it's better to ask your bash related question in #bash
[07:20] <slide> airtonix, is there no REAL fix, like having it be more then 1 pixel ;)
[07:20] <airtonix> slide, i have mine set as alt + right click drag
[07:20] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  when I run that, I get "python : Depends: python-minimal (= 2.5.2-0ubuntu1) but 2.6.6-3+squeeze1 is to be installed"  I cannot install python-minimal in this way.  Ug.
[07:20] <tecnico> you'll just get people rightfully mad otherwise
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> Damascene: or past a wireless device. Also try another port
[07:20] <gogeta1> ActionParsnip: lol he stil fighting abought addin 1 line to his script
[07:20] <Damascene> ActionParsnip, it's PS2
[07:21] <airtonix> slide, get another theme? but i find that alt + right click drag is much better as it provides an infinitely large target to hit
[07:21] <airtonix> slide, aka fitts law
[07:21] <ActionParsnip> x_or: you may have to download packages from packages.ubuntu.com and install them.
[07:21] <sosaited> gogeta1: Is there any command of cdrom-detect/try-usb=true sort for hard drive install? Other people who have had the same cdrom problem seemed to have worked it out with this command
[07:21] <airtonix> slide, you can move a window the same way with alt + left click drag
[07:21] <ActionParsnip> Damascene: I see.
[07:21] <ish_> hey guys a quick question. Is DNS referring to domain name system or domain name server? or are those two things the same
[07:21] <gogeta1> sosaited: i cant say if i got errors it was always the iso
[07:21] <x_or> ActionParsnip:  Meaning, manually download, using wget, for example?
[07:22] <airtonix> slide, also, with alt click drag.. you don't have to aim for the corner or title bar
[07:22] <gogeta1> sosaited: usb or even a burned copy
[07:22] <tecnico> ish_: server
[07:22] <Damascene> ActionParsnip, I've been having this issue for sometime and just today a friend came to another channel with the same issue. and he has his wireless turned of. I've wireless on.
[07:22] <sosaited> gogeta1: Generally speaking is alternate better of desktop for unetbootin?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> x_or: sure or web browser etc
[07:22] <Lanlost> ActionParsnip, incoming
[07:22] <ish_> tecnico is system a different thing?
[07:22] <sosaited> gogeta1: *or
[07:22] <gogeta1> sosaited: alt is just a text based installer for low ram machines
[07:22] <gogeta1> sosaited: same ubuntu in the end
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> Damascene: try adding the boot option: irpoll ,it may help
[07:23] <airtonix> ish_, its actually : Domain Name Service...
[07:23] <tecnico> ish_: I wouldn't think so.. there's no other project named domain name system..   so there should be no confussion but the right description for the acronym is server
[07:23] <Damascene> ActionParsnip, ok thanks. I could not find similar issue in google top results
[07:23] <gogeta1> sosaited: alt is used for low ram and people having problems withh live not working like blackscreens etc but your errors point to cruupted iso
[07:23] <Lanlost> All I needed help with was forming the if statement. Theres no problem with my listing code
[07:24] <ish_> when i wiki'd DNS i got domain name system, so i got a bit confused
[07:24] <ish_> how stuff works gave me domain name server
[07:24] <Lanlost> something like "f [ -f `ls *.iso | grep -m1 .` ] then; echo `ls *.iso | grep -n .`; fi " but I'll just ask in #bash
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> Damascene: try a different search engine then
[07:24] <ish_> and airtronix just gavee me domain name service
[07:24] <slide> airtonix, how do you get the keyboard shortcut to accept alt + right click? it just does back to alt+f8 for me
[07:25] <airtonix> ish_, Service is the process exposing ports on a machines network interface. Server is a physical thing you can touch. system is a collection of protocols and policies
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> ish_: dns converts names to ip addresses
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> ish_: and vice versa
[07:25] <hardwarebum> 10.10x64 trying to use Firewire iSight camera.
[07:25] <ish_> http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/D/DNS.html
[07:25] <airtonix> slide, you went to the keyboard shortcut editor in the menus ?
[07:25] <ish_> that seems to state that all 3 acronyms are the same
[07:25] <tecnico> ish_: interesting. Well, I'm pretty sure it all points to the same. The server doing the service of converting names to IPs and the reverse, IPs to names
[07:25] <slide> airtonix, yes
[07:25] <hardwarebum> followed a few guides, no success yet.
[07:25] <airtonix> ish_, then that pages is created by fools and twitters
[07:26] <hardwarebum> lspci gives 01:05.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Agere Systems FW322/323 (rev 70)
[07:26] <ish_> oh so ur the nonfool?
[07:26] <sosaited> gogeta1: Ok. Thanks.  I thought it was because of netbootin messing something up cause I saw similar problems on forums.. and I personally had a problem with unetbootin when I was installing 10.04 from karmic. In the end I had to use an alternate version instead of desktop, and use grub to boot iso via loopback manually
[07:26] <gogeta1> sosaited: the latest version of unetbootin from there websites fixed 10.10 issues
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> ish_: this is offtopic here, please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic as this is a support channel. Could also ask in ##networking
[07:26] <airtonix> ish_, stands to reason that someone who defines three technically different terms as the forensically exact same thing....
[07:27] <gogeta1> sosaited: with beta it bad a bug with booting
[07:27] <OY1R> 25second that's pretty good boot time.
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> sosaited: pendrive linux site has an easy 1 2 3 usb installer for windows
[07:27] <airtonix> slide, are you using Compiz ?

[07:28] <OY1R> wonder if i could speed it up a bit
[07:28] <airtonix> slide, have you installed compizconfig-settings-manager ?
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> gogeta1: user is having issues with it so I'm suggesting an alternative
[07:28] <gogeta1> sosaited: on 1 gb drive wow thats relly crunching it
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> OY1R: if you reduce startup items it will

[07:29] <slide> airtonix, nope, should i?
[07:29] <slide> k
[07:29] <gogeta1> sosaited: aculy unetbooting does do 1gb i put it on my pro duo 1gb
[07:29] <gogeta1> sosaited: just makes shure the drives totaly formated to fat3
[07:29] <gogeta1> fatt32

[07:30] <hardwarebum>  anyone on meerkat with FW iSight?
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> sosaited: if you have a current ubuntu install you can use usb-creator too
[07:30] <sosaited> gogeta1: unetboot in ddidn't have a problem with it, the multiple iso one didn't even allow to select the Iso with that drive
[07:30] <airtonix> sosaited, why not use the default liveusb maker in the system menus ?
[07:30] <gogeta1> sosaited: well it sounds like a iso issue
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> hardwarebum: is it a webcam?
[07:31] <sosaited> ActionParsnip: I have a current one on my desktop, but I persuaded a friend in another city to try ubuntu
[07:31] <hardwarebum> apple iSight webcam

[07:42] <neww> ok gogeta1, i will try that rite now
[07:42] <hardwarebum> neww, gogeta1 may be right, if you do not have a router after cable modem.

[07:42] <gogeta1> neww: then it will play nice with linux and windpws
[07:42] <pwnt> it appears on my panel for few seconds stating "Starting up firefox" then it goes away
[07:42] <neww> i have router
[07:42] <hardwarebum> neww, some cable providers require to call in new MAC address as well.
[07:42] <hardwarebum> ok, ipconfig -a and lspci
[07:42] <Eventyret> pwnt: try ALT + F2 and tyep firefox does the same happend ?

I can now enter hibernate just fine again - but the computer doesn't start up from the hibernated state, rather does a normal startup. Is there some other file I need to update?

[07:45] <jky> linux
[07:45] <Eventyret> hello jky
[07:45] <hardwarebum> mufasis, http://paste.org/pastebin/view/24585
[07:46] <pwnt> Eventyret: I'm really having problems with my installation, tried to install 10.10 and failed, now trying 10.4 also failing, and its not like i'm doing it wrong, but the fact that while installation suddenly the slideshow disappears, then only purple screen appears with a cursor and thats it.
[07:46] <Jordan_U> pwnt: How much RAM do you have?
[07:46] <pwnt> my laptop has 1gig of ram, maybe more. Not exactly sure, but its a huge laptop
[07:46] <pwnt> at least 1gig ram I would say

[07:47] <pwnt> I burned 5 cd's, all same problem
[07:47] <v-himanshu> Hello: what is the use of "ld.so.conf.d" directory in /etc? Please tell
[07:47] <pwnt> 3 cds for 10.10 and 2 cds for 10.4
[07:47] <cyborgsmurf> I have a question about compiz config. When I open appearance preferences (rightclick on desktop and background) there is nothing ticked. The cuberotation seem to lag when I rotate, has this something to do with it?
[07:47] <v-himanshu> ?
[07:47] <Eventyret> pwnt: dont you got a USB pen or something ?
[07:47] <gogeta1> Desiree: id the xbox on a roughter or directly to youur pc
[07:47] <Gnea> Desiree: eth0 is for connecting via ethernet, not wireless
[07:47] <Eventyret> pwnt: might burned them to fast.
[07:47] <gogeta1> is
[07:47] <pwnt> USB external hard disk you mean?
[07:48] <Eventyret> pwnt: well a usb pen like a 1GB pendrive
[07:48] <pwnt> Eventyret: no, I saw a thread about this in forums, and I burned with slowerst speed at x4
[07:48] <pwnt> Eventyret: I don't have that
[07:48] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Ok, that's more than enough. Can you run the installer in the terminal, by running "ubiquity" then pastebin any output after it fails?
[07:48] <neww> gogeta1: reconnected modem, restarted comp.. doesn't work
[07:48] <Desiree> Gnea: before i reinstalled the new ubuntu i plated x box live by using auto eth0 it would automaicly connect me to it :?
[07:48] <gogeta1> neww: humm
[07:48] <pwnt> Jordan_U: sure, I will do that if i know how, I am kinda new and browser isnt working for me at the moment, can you tell me how to do this.
[07:48] <hardwarebum> neww, u have stuf from ipconfig -a and lspci?
[07:48] <Gnea> Desiree: I'm not sure I'm following what you're trying to say
[07:48] <gogeta1> neww: do you have mac adress filtering on your roughter enabled
[07:48] <pwnt> beside how can I pastebin, firefox not working
[07:48] <hardwarebum> er, ifconfig -a
[07:48] <gogeta1> neww: you may have to tel it to allow ubuntu
[07:49] <Eventyret> pwnt: last time i had issues with a install it was my hdd but that was me.
[07:49] <Gnea> Desiree: all I got out of that was you used to play xbox live by connecting through an ubuntu box to the internet?
[07:49] <neww> not yet hardwarebum, getting now
[07:49] <hardwarebum> k
[07:49] <neww> gogeta1, i don't have mac filtering
[07:49] <pwnt> Eventyret: I'm sure there is a problem with my laptop, but I would love to know what is it
[07:49] <Gnea> Desiree: and I'm also guessing that english is not your first language
[07:49] <pwnt> i'll try getting chrome to post some stuff
[07:49] <Desiree> Gnea: well my xbox is connected directly to my computer, and before i reinstalled ubuntu, my xbox live would connect with the auto eth0 because it cant just connect to my wirless, but its not picking up any connection anymore
[07:49] <gogeta1> Gnea: he didnt tell me that yet lol
[07:49] <hardwarebum> all that is needed from lspci is any ehternet related, like if u see the name of ur card,
[07:49] <Jordan_U> pwnt: First open a terminal by going to Applications > Accessories > Terminal.
[07:49] <pintocow> how do i register a nick with nickserv?
[07:49] <pwnt> Jordan_U: okay, done
[07:50] <hardwarebum> ! nickserve
[07:50] <hardwarebum> ! nickserv
[07:50] <gogeta1> Desiree: ok no problem you need to make a change to auto eth0
[07:50] <Eventyret> pwnt: have you checked your hdd for bad sectors?
[07:50] <pintocow> !nickserv
[07:50] <hardwarebum> !nickserv pintocow
[07:50] <Gnea> hardwarebum: try #freenode
[07:50] <gogeta1> Desiree: go to your network manager slect auto eth0 and edit in ip slect shaed with other computers
[07:50] <pintocow> ha yeah on freenode thanks
[07:50] <gogeta1> Desiree: reset pc and it will work
[07:50] <Desiree> thank you!
[07:50] <ubuntu> pintocow you wanker get lost
[07:51] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Run "sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit". Then you will be able to use pastebin from the terminal (no browser needed).
[07:51] <jky> My English is not good.
[07:51] <pwnt> look I opened ubuntu software center and I got this msg, same as firefox before, same msg "Sorry ubuntu software center closed unexpectedly. "
[07:51] <hardwarebum> dotn know this chan's bangs.
[07:51] <Gnea> Desiree: so you're trying to connect to xbox live using an ethernet connection to the ubuntu box, and the ubuntu box is connecting to the internet with wireless through the usb?
[07:51] <Jordan_U> jky: What is your first language?
[07:51] <Gnea> hardwarebum: you probably don't need to
[07:51] <pwnt> Eventyret: how can I check that?
[07:51] <gogeta1> Gnea: i told him how
[07:51] <greppy> hardwarebum: /msg nickserv help
[07:51] <gogeta1> Gnea: he just had to change to shared mode
[07:51] <Gnea> gogeta1: ok
[07:51] <jky> Chinese
[07:52] <Gnea> !cn | jky
[07:52] <Jordan_U> !cn | jky
[07:52] <hardwarebum> to send to another person?
[07:52] <hardwarebum> ha!, like that.
[07:52] <Eventyret>  pwnt = System -> Administration -> System Testing
[07:53] <pwnt> Jordan_U: ok, done. waiting now and will post to you. how do I post?
[07:53] <pwnt> Eventyret: I'll do that now.
[07:53] <gogeta1> Desiree: if live still does not connect after share mode is on we might have to open some poerts
[07:53] <gogeta1> ports
[07:53] <gogeta1> Desiree: but see after reboot
[07:54] <sosaited> Is there a gui program to zerofille/low level format a drive?

[07:55] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Save the output to a file and run "pastebinit /path/to/file.txt".
[07:55] <AnxiousNut> hello, I have an image with 30 layers in gimp and i need to convert it to a PDF, how can i do that?
[07:55] <pwnt> Jordan_U: the whole thing?
[07:55] <Desiree> its not there, i checked!
[07:55] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Nvm, with that error pastebinit won't be working yet.

[07:56] <gogeta1> Desiree: prefs admin network setings
[07:56] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Are you connected to the internet on the machine in question?
[07:56] <pwnt> Jordan_U: yes, I am
[07:56] <pwnt> using liveCD
[07:56] <pwnt> the trial of ubuntu
[07:56] <pwnt> Eventyret: will do, be safe man. can you tell me what am I suppose to be looking for in that system test before you leave
[07:57] <blackshirt> okey, it just very stable and mature filesystem for linux
[07:57] <gogeta1> Desiree: then you will see auto eth0 slect edit and in the ip panael change to shared with other computers
[07:57] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: swg?
[07:57] <Yerushalmi> Can somebody help me fix my hibernate? My computer isn't loading up the hibernated state that it saved.
[07:57] <neww> hardwareburn, can i tell you anything specific you are looking for? i am unable to copy the info from other pc, no internet access there :(
[07:57] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, I have them as .png's at the moment!
[07:57] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Try running "sudo apt-get update" again and see if you get the same error.
[07:58] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: so each layer is a png?
[07:58] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, yes
[07:58] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: then you don't want gimp, you want openoffice draw
[07:58] <pwnt> Jordan_U: okay
[07:58] <Peps> Всем привет, нужна помощь в восстановлении диска
[07:58] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: import each png as a page, then click the 'pdf' button
[07:58] <Jordan_U> !ru | peps
[07:58] <pwnt> Jordan_U: yep same error again, you want me to msg you the last 3 lines?
[07:58] <gogeta1> Desiree: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rIqPST-TFrE/TE04qiwjvqI/AAAAAAAAJZQ/QK_wsgAhaVI/s1600/Ubuntu+Network+Config.jpg
[07:59] <hardwarebum> neww, from ifconfig -a is there an eth0?
[07:59] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, okay. i'll try that out now
[07:59] <neww> yes there is
[07:59] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: works for me everytime :)
[07:59] <sosaited> gogeta1: Cd problem again :). No gui front end to dd?
[07:59] <hardwarebum> what is the inet addr values?
[07:59] <hardwarebum> neww ^
[07:59] <gogeta1> sosaited: well if your looking to delete all files thers the dban live cd
[07:59] <neww> inet is not under eth0
[08:00] <neww> but it is under lo
[08:00] <neww> and it is <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:00] <neww> mask <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:00] <cyborgsmurf> It seems my Ubuntu 10.04 lags when using switching workspace
[08:00] <hardwarebum> neww, lo is loopback,
[08:00] <Desiree> gogetal: when i go into it there is no network settings on nwtwork connections or network proxy
[08:00] <hardwarebum> supposed to be.
[08:00] <gogeta1> Desiree: slect wired then you should see auto eth0
[08:00] <pwnt> Jordan_U: I am stuck right
[08:01] <hardwarebum> neww, from term, type sudo dhclient
[08:01] <Jordan_U> neww: What happens if you run "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" Then "sudo dhclient eth0"?
[08:01] <hardwarebum> neww
[08:01] <gogeta1> Desiree: as long as its net to shared it handels the rest of the info
[08:01] <hardwarebum> ^
[08:01] <gogeta1> set
[08:01] <neww> yeh going to
[08:01] <cyborgsmurf> How do I update my drivers for my graphiccard
[08:01] <Gnea> cyborgsmurf: depends on the graphics card
[08:01] <Desiree> gogetal: yes i know, i went there but its not there
[08:01] <gogeta1> Desiree: ?
[08:02] <neww> hardwarebum, it says network is down
[08:02] <neww> at differnet intervals
[08:02] <OY1R> cyborgsmurf, System>administration>additional drivers
[08:02] <hardwarebum> neww, bad cable, or check ur connections
[08:02] <Desiree> gogetal: i dont know why but there is no network settings there
[08:02] <cyborgsmurf> Gnea: OY1R: thanks
[08:02] <Guest48897> ubottu thanks
[08:02] <neww> i tried different cables, same thing
[08:02] <hardwarebum> neww, is there a light on the eth card? is the port light o nthe router on?
[08:02] <gogeta1> Desiree: no wireless eeyther?
[08:02] <OY1R> np
[08:02] <Desiree> gogetal: the only thing there to do with networking is Network Tools
[08:02] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, currently im in gimp, what format should i save it as so that OO.o can import it as pages?
[08:03] <neww> yeh there is light on the eth card
[08:03] <Guest48897> (=
[08:03] <Desiree> gogetal: no
[08:03] <neww> and the port light is also on
[08:03] <gogeta1> Desiree: must be the wrong network
[08:03] <hardwarebum> new, on ur current computer ur on, what's ur os?
[08:03] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: you misunderstand: do not use gimp. import each PNG image as a page in openoffice draw.
[08:04] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: since you said they're png already, that means they're already saved as PNG, which OOo draw accepts
[08:04] <neww> ubuntu 10
[08:04] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, but i have edited the layers and dont know how to do so in OO.o!
[08:04] <Gnea> neww: lsb_release -a
[08:04] <Jordan_U> pwnt: You might just want to try the alternate install CD.
[08:04] <hardwarebum> neww, ok, do an ifconfig -a eth0 on that one.
[08:04] <Jordan_U> !alternate | pwnt
[08:04] <pwnt> Jordan_U: I can't check that site now, no browser :(
[08:04] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: I can't say this anymore simply - forget gimp, open each png in openoffice draw. what is so difficult about that?
[08:05] <gogeta1> Desiree: it should look something like this
[08:05] <gogeta1> http://www.techotopia.com/images/f/fa/Ubuntu_linux_network_settings.jpg
[08:05] <cyborgsmurf> Gnea: ubuntu has set the 173 driver (which is not the recommended one), should I choose the recommended instead?
[08:05] <hardwarebum> pwnt, sudo apt-get install links
[08:05] <Gnea> cyborgsmurf: yes, always go recommended
[08:05] <sporedi> how do i resume wget download with  wget -c --username --passwd and url ?
[08:05] <hardwarebum> pwnt, text based browser
[08:05] <neww> hardwarebum, same thing as before, no inet info there but have ethernet hardware ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
[08:05] <pwnt> it doesn't work either
[08:05] <Jordan_U> pwnt: I assume that you can somehow manage to download the alternate install CD and burn it. Possibly on another computer / OS.
[08:05] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, im not used to it and i have a midterm after an hour and i need to get this done! Learnign how to use OO.o would take time!, but thanks anyways
[08:06] <neww> Gnea, ubuntu 10.10 codename maveric
[08:06] <pwnt> Reading package lists... Error!
[08:06] <pwnt> Eventyret: Read error - read (5: Input/output error)
[08:06] <neww> do i need to install any driver for the network card ?
[08:06] <Jordan_U> pwnt: That sounds like a bad CD.
[08:06] <pwnt> Jordan_U: problem is that I formatted my current computer
[08:06] <hardwarebum> neww. so you are on a computer with no IP address but on the internet.
[08:06] <hardwarebum> hmm
[08:06] <pwnt> Jordan_U: well, i burned 5 discs, they are all like this
[08:06] <Desiree> gogetal: okay so i have a place i can look at my network settings and when i click it the things that come up are: Wired Networks (disconnected), Wirless Network (linksys_SES_44049), VPN connections, Connect to hidden wirless network, and create new wireless network
[08:06] <Yerushalmi> Can somebody help me fix my hibernate? My pm-suspend.log indicates that hibernate is working, but when I turn the computer back on it starts up normally and doesn't load up that hibernated state.
[08:06] <pwnt> I used slow burn iso image
[08:07] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: I understand midterms - it's really not difficult - save your PNG images separately, then open each one in OOo, copy and paste each as a 'new page' until you get a bunch of pages that are of each PNG, then press the PDF button and it will make a PDF. it's EASY.
[08:07] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Maybe a bad iso image or a bad drive then.
[08:07] <neww> hardwarebum, srry i have no internet access on that one .. this one that i am using is windows
[08:07] <gogeta1> Desiree: ok on wired slect edit auto eth0
[08:07] <hardwarebum> neww, that was my last question
[08:07] <Jordan_U> pwnt: Try running the integrity check from the boot menu (press any key within the first 5 seconds of boot).
[08:07] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: each page of the PDF will be of each PNG
[08:07] <hardwarebum> go to cmd on win computer and do ipconfig
[08:07] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, 30+ layers <.<
[08:07] <Desiree> gogetal: it wont let my select anything under wired, its blacked out
[08:07] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: you can have it done in 30 minutes, maybe less
[08:08] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: you have each PNG saved as a separate file, right?
[08:08] <AnxiousNut> Gnea, lol nevermind, thanks anyways!
[08:08] <gogeta1> Desiree: in system pref network settings
[08:08] <hardwarebum> neww, give IP address, and is DHCP Enabled = yes or no.
[08:08] <gogeta1> Desiree: but its ok if its blacked out
[08:08] <cyborgsmurf> Gnea: had an ubuntu-visualdesktop-crash, so I formatted the whole HDD... lost almost everything. Anyways, feels better to run Ubuntu with +800GB HDD than 100GB
[08:08] <gogeta1> Desiree: just delete auto eth0
[08:08] <Gnea> AnxiousNut: I'm telling you, you can't get gimp to do what OOo draw can do. but okay, shoot yourself in the foot, no skin off of my nose.
