[00:00] <Jordan_U> spectre51_: You're welcome.
[00:00] <caudex> chepoll, it really doesn't break down, After rebooting xev reports all the keys as working but prefs keyboard is overwriting some of them.
[00:00] <Chepoll> caudex: what is prefs keyboard?
[00:00] <caudex> chepoll, yes and the symptom is that prefs keyboard is not working to reset all options to default.
[00:01] <root__> hey how can i install some media player on my backtrack 4 ?
[00:01] <Pici> root__: We don't support backtrack here. Please use their channel instead: #backtrack-linux
[00:01] <Chepoll> caudex: yeah yeah, you said that. but did it work before you added any changes to your alt-key is the question
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> root__: plus IRCing as root is a really BAD idea
[00:01] <caudex> chepoll, menu at top of desktop > System > Preferences > Keyboard-
[00:01] <Chepoll> caudex: yeah yeah, you said that. but did it work before you added any changes with your alt-key is the question
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> Pici: can I PM you please dude :)
[00:02] <Jordan_U> !guidelines | xxen0nxx
[00:02] <jpgnizak> Hey, anyone having problems with skype opening up in 11.04?
[00:02] <zzecool> ActionParsnip, he is a backtrackor he knows whats he doin :p  sarcasm
[00:03] <Pici> ActionParsnip: Sure
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> zzecool: oh yeah fo sho
[00:03] <Chepoll> caudex: also, does it output an error saying that it cannot reset, or do you not observe any changes where you should?
[00:03] <zzecool> rofl
[00:03] <hihihi100> i need a link with instructions to install a tar.gz ./configure wont work, that file doesnt exist
[00:03] <caudex> chepoll, I had the xmodmap syntax wrong at first. I was putting xmodmap -e ... whatever into the .xmodmaprc file instead of keycode 151 ..
[00:03] <silvertip257> I'm attempting to boot the Ubuntu live cd via PXE, but encounter a problem after the init script executes a NetworkManager script.  I'm following this > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDNetboot
[00:04] <caudex> chepoll, no nothing but hard drive activity and then options still shows the old settings
[00:05] <caudex> chepoll, of course xsessions-errors is full of bad jujube
[00:05] <xxen0nxx> .
[00:05] <xxen0nxx> yay i can talk
[00:05] <xxen0nxx> srry for spam
[00:05] <caudex> chepoll .xsessions-errors that is.
[00:05] <Chepoll> caudex: yeah yeah
[00:06] <caudex> chepoll, it seems I should just be able to delete some file that ubuntu would recreate for the defaults
[00:07] <Chepoll> caudex: It's gnome's options. I don't use gnome much so I am somewhat troubled
[00:08] <caudex> chepoll, I'm not married to gnome. Can i use a different gui on meerkat?
[00:09] <Chepoll> caudex: there is an xorg.conf file that stores these settings, there is .xmodmaprc and .xinitrc and then there is console-setup
[00:09] <xxen0nxx> how douse one make thare own IRC server in ubuntu?
[00:09] <Chepoll> caudex: I'll first see why it doesn't reset
[00:09] <caudex> chepoll, okay thanks
[00:10] <santina> hi all
[00:10] <Skald> hi
[00:10] <Pici> xxen0nxx: You'd need to setup one of the many ircd packages that are in the repositories.  Many of them are non-trivial to setup though.
[00:10] <mikeyfbi> hey i have an odd internet error.  my connection turns off randomly every 15 - 20 minutes or so for about 20 - 30 seconds.  i need a program to monitor my 'internet uptime'
[00:11] <xxen0nxx> pici ok cool
[00:11] <mikeyfbi> most bandwidth monitoring tools seem to only monitor how much activity
[00:11] <Skald> pff i was thinking of changing to kde again
[00:11] <mikeyfbi> but i need something like # w but for internet
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: when it drops, run:  dmesg | tail   it should give clues
[00:11] <giannis__>  /msg NickServ identify pass123
[00:12] <Pici> mikeyfbi: # w ?
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> giannis__: might want to chnge your pasword
[00:12] <mikeyfbi> ActionParsnip, thx
[00:12] <giannis__> how?
[00:12] <aeon-ltd> giannis__: *facepalms*
[00:12] <Pici> giannis__: /msg nickserv help set password
[00:12] <giannis__>  /msg nickserv help set password
[00:13] <Skald> ..
[00:13] <qin> giannis__: Skip space?
[00:13] <aeon-ltd> giannis__: i woudn't do that in this channel
[00:13] <lj_> copying files from windows to ubuntu, using ubuntu over network I get Invalid argument
[00:13] <Chelsea> Hi all, question:is there a centralised place where to discuss (in a civilised way) Ubuntu's current and future decisions regarding Unity? -no troll intended
[00:13] <giannis__> ok
[00:13] <Jordan_U> giannis__: First, move to a different tab (like the one with network messages) so that you don't accidentily send messages here.
[00:13] <giannis__> i do
[00:14] <Jordan_U> giannis__: Obviously not as we have now seen two messages from you that were meant for nickserv.
[00:14] <Pici> Chelsea: There will probably be a UDS session for it this week, and those sessions will support remote participation.
[00:15] <Pici> Chelsea: check out http://uds.ubuntu.com/
[00:17] <Chelsea> Pici, Thank you!
[00:17] <mikeyfbi> is there a program for ubuntu that can ping multiple internet address to check if you have internet connection, say every 15 seconds, and keep a log?
[00:17] <Pici> mikeyfbi: uhh. I just saw something for this... one moment.
[00:17] <ErezCohen> what does dhclient mean?
[00:17] <santina> why when I plug a usb pendrive natty doesn't automount it? /var/log/syslog shows informations about the pen drive. I can mount it manually.
[00:18] <terry> santina check fstab
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: you can write a script to ping as you wish, then cron the script. Make sure you add:  -c 4   to ping so it pings only 4 times (ping by default goes forever)
[00:19] <terry> use sudo nano /etc/fstab
[00:19] <mikeyfbi> ActionParsnip, i wish i knew how :P
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: you can have the script perform logic based on the result of the ping test (like write to a log file or email or flash an alert using notify-send)
[00:19] <cjaredrun> ActionParsnip i imagine you could make it take action based on response as well
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: research into bash, its very powerful
[00:19] <cjaredrun> mikeyfbi ^
[00:19] <santina> terry, thank you
[00:19] <kevinola> i need help with wubi and ubuntu 11.04
[00:19] <terry> no problem
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> cjaredrun: sure, why not :D
[00:19] <santina> terry, I've found a line about sdb1 in fstab
[00:20] <ErezCohen> any one? i am asking because my manager didn't work. i didn't get any ip from the dhcp, when i did that every thing is working....can any one tell me what does it do? and will it work on restart now?
[00:20] <ErezCohen> i mean every time...not sporadicly like now :-)
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: good base to use here: http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/10378-ping-script-using-redhat-bash.html
[00:20] <Chepoll> caudex: are you here?
[00:20] <caudex> chepoll,
[00:21] <connor__> when i try to upgrade ubuntu 10.10  to 11.04 it says failed to fetch files
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> mikeyfbi: iplist.txt will be a file containing the list of IPs to test
[00:21] <Chepoll> caudex: okay, launch gconf-editor. You can do that by typing it in a terminal
[00:21] <obert-> hi,i would to chown /var/www from root to user, would be   sudo chown -R myusername.myusername /var/www ?
[00:21] <mikeyfbi> ActionParsnip, i'll look at that, thanks!
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> obert-: change the . between the usernames to a colon
[00:21] <obert-> ok
[00:22] <obert-> then it would be correct to do that or isnt common setup?
[00:22] <caudex> chepoll, okay how do I get out of the man page
[00:22] <Chepoll> Q
[00:22] <obert-> dangerous or so i mean
[00:22] <connor__> it says failed to fetch files when i try to upgrade ubuntu
[00:22] <Chepoll> caudex: "q"
[00:23] <obert-> got a bad experience with chown
[00:23] <caudex> chepoll okay in gconf-editor
[00:23] <ErezCohen> Chepoll, I fixed my problem, 10x, can u please tell me what does dhclient mean?....10x :-)
[00:23] <Chepoll> caudex: there, go to desktop/gnome/peripherals
[00:24] <k_sze> Is FreeNX kinda dead? I hear that there is the new neatx by Google. Is that in the main repositories?
[00:24] <Chepoll> ErezCohen: I really odn't know. How did you solve your problem?
[00:24] <connor__> it says failed to fetch files when i try upgrading ubuntu
[00:24] <obert-> 'unvalid user' ?
[00:24] <caudex> chepoll, okay and to keyboard
[00:24] <connor__> please help
[00:24] <Chepoll> caudex, yes
[00:24] <coz_> connor__,   are you in terminal?
[00:25] <ErezCohen> Chepoll , sudo dhclient wlan0
[00:25] <connor__> what do you mean by that
[00:25] <robin0800> connor__, slow internet connection?
[00:25] <caudex> chepoll, to kbd?
[00:25] <Chelsea> mikeyfbi, I use watch for this. watch -n 5 ping -c 4 <ip or hostname>
[00:25] <coz_> connor__,  what files are you trying to download
[00:25] <Chepoll> caudex: I think so
[00:25] <ErezCohen> and it started the NIC and got all the network parmas from the server and every thing is working
[00:25] <connor__> high speed standard cogeco 60 gb limit
[00:25] <obert-> {User},{User}  no?
[00:26] <coz_> connor__,  oh I have no idea about t hat
[00:26] <ErezCohen> Chepoll, soory, again, om the server and every thing is working
[00:26] <connor__> what
[00:26] <Chepoll> ErezCohen: you could do "man dhclient" and see what it's about.
[00:26] <caudex> chepoll, layouts, model, options have open box for value
[00:26] <ErezCohen> ok..10x, checking
[00:26] <connor__> can you help me fix my problem
[00:26] <Chepoll> none of them have any value set?
[00:27] <robin0800> connor__, its the server you are connectig too
[00:27] <Chepoll> caudex: none of them have a set value?
[00:27] <connor__> then what server doi connect to ive tried a few already
[00:27] <ErezCohen> Chepoll, got it...just say what you expect, dynamic configure of the NIC :-)
[00:27] <caudex> chepoll, no but I see under general that it's still finding dotxmodmaprc like it's telepathic.
[00:28] <Relikie_> There are different ubuntu versions for different processors, correct?
[00:28] <connor__> robin?
[00:28] <Glycan> Guys?
[00:28] <robin0800> connor__, in software sources choose other and find best
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> Relikie_: x86_64, x86 and ppc are 3 I can think or quickly
[00:28] <connor__> ive tried that already
[00:28] <Glycan> Any reason for a livecd to show but a mouse on a dark screen after clicking try ubuntu (It did make a startup noise, however)
[00:29] <obert-> how can i type the wrong username? grrr
[00:29] <Chepoll> caudex: well just comment the linex in it I guess. Because if what you saw in gconf's kbd was really empty, then it means keyborad preferebces is getting those options from somewhere else.
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: try adding the bootoption: nomodeset
[00:29] <robin0800> connor__, then its your box
[00:29] <Chelsea> Relikie_, I thought there were x86, AMD64 ... maybe an ARM in development.
[00:29] <connor__> what box
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: be sure to MD5 test the ISO and check the CD for defects
[00:29] <introuble> is it possible to plan a sniffer or data collector of clients that use a specific isp, by a sniffer or data collector OUTSIDE the isp , just where its boundries end. may be at the router.  doing all this WITHOUT compromising isp machines or involving midle man isps. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/828/98710181.jpg/
[00:29] <connor__> my modem its perfectly fine
[00:30] <robin0800> connor__, your ubuntu box
[00:30] <connor__> when i try upgrading it says failed to fetch file
[00:30] <Relikie_> I have an Intel x64 processor.. The download button on the download page has AMD in the file title. Does this matter?
[00:30] <connor__> what ubuntu box
[00:30] <caudex> chepoll, there seems to be an authentication problem when I try to set value to default
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> connor__: can you give a pastebin of: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core; sudo do-release-upgrade
[00:31] <connor__> i guess just a sec im goin to terminal
[00:31] <k_sze> btw, what happened to aptitude? I seem to have completely missed the release since which it is no longer installed by default.
[00:31] <x_> anyway to change the color of the on screen volume slider, its hard to see.... ?
[00:32] <robin0800> k_sze, the alternate cd still has it
[00:32] <caudex> chepoll, is it normal for the authenticate popup to stay up after entering pw?

[00:32] <x_> coz_, laptop volume buttons
[00:32] <coz_> x_,  oh no laptop here

[00:44] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: nope, just ssh
[00:45] <edwardthefma> hello all
[00:45] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: hum maybe .. what do you want to do? ;)
[00:45] <KNUBBIG> edwardthefma: hi

[00:45] <x_> coz_, its called notifyosd
[00:46] <Chepoll> caudex: what do you mean by authentication?
[00:46] <Albuca> Hey! Does anyone know anything about Screen? More specifically, running it in multiuser?
[00:46] <KNUBBIG> !screen | Albuca
[00:46] <coz_> x_,  I found on old post about karmic  I doubt it will work so let me keep searching
[00:47] <caudex> chepoll, after trying to reset options the popup says system policy prevents setting global keyboard settings, and stays there.
[00:47] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, i am starting with open source development this days, installed ubuntu 10.04 with apache and all the rest and i want to be able to connect to the www directory from outside of the lan (so i could work not only form home/office and also let my designer work on the filed....so i need to allow connection over the internet to the network and the server
[00:47] <Albuca> ubottu: I'm looking for something a little more advanced that that. I want to start up a screen session from a bash script and automaticaly share the screen with certian usernames
[00:47] <musicophiliac> ubottu: module kernel soundcard
[00:48] <musicophiliac> ubottu: soundcard module
[00:48] <coz_> x_,   ok look here    http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/finally-easy-way-to-customize-notify.html
[00:48] <bazhang> musicophiliac, /msg ubottu
[00:48] <x_> coz_, yea im looking at that now
[00:48] <KNUBBIG> Albuca: I'm not sure that's possible as the screen sockets belong to certain users, but I'm really not sure
[00:48] <Kre10s> how to restart everything related to bluetooth?
[00:48] <ErezCohen> i already set ssh for connecting to the server inside the lan (so i won't have to enter password every time i want to talk with the server) but now ned to so the same for outside of lan
[00:48] <caudex> chepoll, but I can use sudo so I don't understand the problem.
[00:48] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: so you want to set up a web server and have no idea how to do that?
[00:49] <coz_> x_,  natty is not mentioned there ,, its possible it will work  but I cant guarantee it
[00:49] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, i am learning on the fly, what can i do, do you know anyone that knew every thing from the start? :-)
[00:49] <Albuca> KNUBBIG: I know you can through shift-a : [some stuff here] ; but i want to automate the process
[00:50] <Chipzzz> ErezCohen, offhand, it sounds like a firewall problem
[00:50] <Chepoll> caudex: so even though you are root, you cannot modify the file?
[00:50] <ErezCohen> and the apache server is working from out site of the lan.....i can see the site from the internet
[00:50] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: well it's a long process, you have to set up apache, your router, NAT on your router, users and groups on your server, maybe there's a tutorial @ howtoforge
[00:50] <coz_> x_,  even his PPA does not have    natty   https://launchpad.net/~leolik/+archive/leolik
[00:50] <ErezCohen> just want access to edit files from outside
[00:50] <Chepoll> caudex: through using gconf-editor?
[00:50] <x_> coz_, yea, so i guess ill wait till it does
[00:50] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, i did all of that
[00:50] <mfpockets> any help get xorg to load on boot, so i dont have to enter starx on tty screen everytime i boot?
[00:51] <ErezCohen> it is working
[00:51] <KNUBBIG> Albuca: You can detach from the screen via ctrl a + d but I'm pretty sure no other user can reattach to that screen cause it's not belonging to him
[00:51] <jrmcm> Help!!! I just installed a second distro alongside Ubuntu and now grub doesnt recognize ubuntu. When i select it from the menu i get an error message saying file not found.
[00:51] <caudex> chepoll, i'll try that again.
[00:51] <xangua> !grub2 | jrmcm
[00:51] <ErezCohen> i am just asking about the remote connection to the server outside of the NAT (lan)
[00:51] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: ah okay, than you probably have to change your firewall/router settings if you can do all the things in LAN
[00:51] <coz_> x_  https://launchpad.net/~irie/+archive/notifyosd
[00:51] <coz_> x_,  that is only for natty :)
[00:51] <ErezCohen> I know,,,this is also set....
[00:51] <musicophiliac> is there a way to clear all soundcard modules from my comp, so that I can compile alsa from scratch
[00:51] <musicophiliac> ?
[00:52] <jrmcm> xanga: yes grub2
[00:52] <x_> coz_, nice
[00:52] <Albuca> KNUBBIG: Yes you can, http://aperiodic.net/screen/multiuser
[00:52] <Chepoll> caudex: also you can run keyboard-pereferences with sudo too
[00:52] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: then please reexplain your problem in detail, I don't get it :)
[00:52] <ErezCohen> i will do the port forwarding for the server, this is ok....
[00:52] <Limada> coz_, hello ;)
[00:52] <musicophiliac> I mean without a fresh install? the kernel update wiped my hdsp module from my comp and now my firmware is useless
[00:52]  * edwardthefma hates ocr
[00:52] <Limada> Is there some web developer who can help me with a little issue I can' t solve?
[00:52] <coz_> Limada,  hey
[00:52] <Chepoll> caudex: you'll need to do "sudo gnome-keyboard-properties"
[00:53] <Chipzzz> ErezCohen: you have set your firewall to allow port 80 access from the internet but ssh does not connect to port 80
[00:53] <Sietai> hello?
[00:53] <idiota> Hi there.
[00:53] <idiota> How do you call in english the external part of a laptop?
[00:53] <caudex> chepoll, okay
[00:53] <idiota> I mean the case.
[00:54] <Limada> SSH connects to port 22, I guess.
[00:54] <idiota> I'm searching for some Vaio cases and all I find are bags.
[00:54] <nasr> qqq
[00:54] <idiota> Anyone can help me?
[00:54] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, ok, i will explain...sorry, all i am asking is...After having a NAT set up, an Apache2 server, and ssh connection from the server to the laptop inside a LAN, and every thing is working great...now i want to connect from the internet over secured connection, (OVER THE INTERNET) what do i need to do...that is all.

[00:54] <jrmcm> Help!!! I just installed a second distro alongside Ubuntu and now grub wont boot ubuntu. When i select it from the menu i get an error message saying file not found.
[00:55] <Sietai> I think I need help
[00:55] <ErezCohen> Chipzzz sure...i know...i will open a port for the ssh connection..not a problem...80 is for http, not ssh
[00:55] <Sietai> how do I configure a channel?
[00:55] <caudex> chepoll, okay the same popup comes up as does from the top menu
[00:55] <Sietai> like, configure the port and channel?
[00:56] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: you have to forward port 22 and then you should be able to ssh your server through the internet
[00:56] <Limada> SSH, port 22.
[00:56] <schelcj> so if i remap alt-f1 in unity to something else the launcher still activates and the action occurs.
[00:56] <Chipzzz> ErezCohen, once you enable ssh on the server & open the port in the firewall, consider using an nx server, which allows you to open an X session through the ssh connection
[00:56] <schelcj> this expected behavior?
[00:56] <Jasonn> What is a load average, and what is a normal one?
[00:56] <Chepoll> caudex: okay then lets manually edit those files
[00:56] <ErezCohen> but can i write something like this in the teminal and it will work: "ssh user@server" ???
[00:57] <caudex> chepoll, okay
[00:57] <Chipzzz> ErezCohen: yes
[00:57] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: ssh -l user server
[00:57] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: see ssh --help :)
[00:58] <x_> coz_, hmm the notifyosdconfig program says it cant find my x display however..
[00:58] <coz_> x_,  mm testing it here now  hold on
[00:58] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, ok, never used -l when using is localy...but i will chekc it...10x
[00:58] <Chipzzz> ErezCohen, take a look here: http://www.nomachine.com/ , I think it is exactly what you are looking for
[00:58] <musicophiliac> can I remove all linus-headers files from my comp except one in /usr/src, thereby removing any old sound module configurations that may exist? That way I can compile alsa from source and re-integrate my card with firmware?
[00:58] <mfpockets> can someone  help? I  cant  get xorg to load on boot, but it boots from tty with startx
[00:58] <coz_> x_,  so far this works  just testing to change colors
[00:58] <caudex> chepoll, where are those files?
[00:58] <KNUBBIG> ErezCohen: -l is for giving login name, if you don't set it, ssh will use your current username which is sometimes desirable and sometimes not :)
[00:58] <luckysmack_> in natty, everything loads fine, but unity does not show up after i boot. my boot mode is ubuntu and not classic or any other option. in appearance settings theres no options for compiz/desktop effects. any idea how i can get it enabled? gfx card is nvidia geforce 8800gtx
[00:59] <Sietai> how do I connect to a channel?
[00:59] <luckysmack_>  /join #channel
[00:59] <msk_> hi
[00:59] <ErezCohen> KNUBBIG, ok thx :-)
[00:59] <musicophiliac> type "/join #channel"
[00:59] <KNUBBIG> np :)
[00:59] <musicophiliac> msk_: hi

[01:00] <Limada> no web developer who can help me to launch my PHP files in Firefox? =(. I moved my files to /var/www but can't see them. Hope somebody  can help-
[01:00] <Sietai> thanks
[01:01] <LjL> Limada: erm, do you have a web server running?
[01:01] <KNUBBIG> Limada: installed apache2 + php5 ?
[01:01] <edwardthefma> yawn
[01:01] <Limada> LjL, yes, Apache.
[01:01] <padi999> hi all. Question: I Just bought a new laptop with Windows7 preinstalled (as it seems), obviously I want to install ubuntu and use the Windows7 running on a Virtual Machine. How can I mirror the install to a VM while I'd keep all the laptopspecific drivers/specs?
[01:01] <Limada> yes, I did all that.
[01:01] <Nero-Wolf> Does -anyone- here have experience with Ubuntu's implementation of .desktop files in /usr/share/applications ?
[01:01] <Glycan> Sorry guys. My question wasAny reason for a livecd to show but a mouse on a dark screen after clicking try ubuntu (It did make a startup noise, however). I didn't understand you answers.
[01:01] <Glycan> Sorry.
[01:01] <LjL> Limada: are the php files set executable?
[01:01] <Glycan> So what do I do?
[01:01] <Limada> LjL, well...errr.... how can I test it?
[01:02] <LjL> Limada: ls -l /var/www/file.php
[01:02] <Glycan> (Considiring I have no DVDs left [they were all -r), and no clean flash drives)
[01:02] <LjL> Limada: otherwise, see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Troubleshooting PHP 5
[01:02] <Limada> LjL, yes, I can read them in the terminal but Firefox doesn' t want to cooperate to see them local.
[01:03] <x_> coz_, I still cant get the gui to open
[01:03] <Limada> LjL, thanks. I'll take a look there.
[01:03] <coz_> x_,  did you run notify-send  test
[01:03] <LjL> Limada: i'm not asking you whether you can see them in the terminal, i want the output of ls -l so i can see whether they're executable
[01:03] <x_> coz_, GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
[01:03] <x_> aborting...
[01:03] <Limada> LjL, ok. Hold on :)
[01:03] <jrmcm> Help!!! I just installed a second distro alongside Ubuntu and now grub wont boot ubuntu. When i select it from the menu i get an error message saying file not found.
[01:04] <coz_> x_,  i dont think there is a gui for this ,, it is a test file that needs to be created and saved in home then adjusted by editing the file
[01:04] <Jordan_U> !grub | jrmcm
[01:04] <Chelsea> Albuca, have you tried setting screenrc's for different users?
[01:04] <coz_> x_,  oh wait found a gui for it hold on
[01:04] <Albuca> Chelsea: I have not. How do you do this?
[01:04] <Jordan_U> jrmcm: Follow the exact same instructions as if Windows had overritten Ubuntu's grub.
[01:04] <Limada> LjL: ls: cannot access /var/www/file.php: No such file or directory
[01:04] <Limada>  =(
[01:04] <KNUBBIG> Limada: you have to put in your actual file name instead of file.php
[01:05] <LjL> Limada: substitute file.php with the actual file you have :P
[01:05] <Chelsea> screen -A -D -R -S News_Optimus -c /home/mjbunink/etc/screenrc_news

[01:08] <nomorewindows> im installing ubuntu from my live cd on a cleared hdd and for some reason it gets stuck at running grub-install /dev/sda
[01:08] <musicophiliac> connor__: with what?
[01:08] <LjL> Limada: no, you need to do it to the files. you could do it recursively though. chmod -r etc
[01:08] <LuckySMack> anyone willing to help, i cant seem to load unity. im in normal ubuntu mode (not classic) and have no unity/desktop effects settings anywhere.
[01:08] <LjL> KNUBBIG: i'm just not sure it's enough to do it for root, as apache might be running as something else... i don't remember

[01:20] <Stryker> VE2EBP, just try again, your original packages downloaded are still there, maybe change the software sources?
[01:20] <msk_> musicophiliac, do you use a mac too ?

[01:43] <l1nfr4nk7> anyone any ideas bout my Tor Problem?
[01:43] <bazhang> l1nfr4nk7, need more details
[01:43] <l1nfr4nk7> so i installed Tor since i got an email from comcast, but every time i start is it says that the ip its trying to use is already in use
[01:44] <nit-wit> User123abc, cool it is a cool addon, I use one other flash video replacer
[01:45] <ActionParsnip> !tor | l1nfr4nk7
[01:45] <slak> hello
[01:45] <slak> i can't get a sourcecode to compile it says i have to run a defrag first??
[01:46] <milamber> !details | slak
[01:46] <ActionParsnip> slak: ext3 and ext4 don't need defragging
[01:46] <l1nfr4nk7> i basically -sudo tor and got vidalia
[01:46] <friis> Hi, can anyone help me. I have just installed Ubuntu 11.04 and it says my wireless networks is disabled in hardware switch. How do I turn it on?
[01:47] <slak> i run make and it gets along way through it
[01:47] <ThisDB> hi, im getting a message that my hardware doesnt support unity, its 2 brand new nvidia GTX460s, what can i do about this?
[01:47] <slak> then it says fsck failed please manually run degrament to compile this source.
[01:47] <soreau> slak: What are you trying to do exactly?
[01:48] <slak> just compile this tarball my friend gave me...
[01:48] <Un-Dead> hi guys, im running ubuntu netbook 10.10 and seem to be having incredibly slow wifi connection once the netbook is closed and re-oppened about 3 to 4 minuted for the wifi to connect to the hotspot
[01:48] <soreau> slak: Why?
[01:49] <slak> uh
[01:49] <slak> its a really cool source code
[01:49] <Stryker> l1nfr4nk7, that is because many people are on the same ip, as tor directs u thru another computer's internet. pls do not try to log on anything while using tor, the exit node can steal ur password
[01:49] <slak> of some private stuff.. and ive never seen an error like this before
[01:49] <soreau> slak: From the information you've provided, this has nothing to do with ubuntu
[01:50] <slak> but im on ubuntu
[01:50] <slak> so doesnt everthing have to do with ubuntu?
[01:50] <soreau> no.
[01:50] <bazhang> slak, NOPE
[01:50] <slak> i mean.. if i run a youtube video of some fat bitch dildoing herself.. im still doing it ON UBUNTU
[01:50] <slak> you virgin nerds make no sense
[01:50] <Stryker> slak sounds like you are opening it wrong
[01:51] <Un-Dead> anyone?
[01:51] <soreau> Thought I detected a trollometer fluctuation
[01:51] <bigmack83> when i run 'source ~/.bashrc' i get the error "No such file or directory" when the .bashrc file is clearly there in my home directory with the proper permisssions. anyone else having this issue in natty?
[01:51] <Jordan_U> Stryker: That's not true. If you're using SSL/TLS at least (which you should be).
[01:51] <Stryker> Jordan_U, true
[01:51] <Un-Dead> if it helps i dont belive its a hardware issue, as on my windows partition the wireless is very fast
[01:51] <Un-Dead> just seems to lag very bad on the netbook 10.10
[01:51] <Stryker> my trollometer's needle just broke
[01:52] <Jordan_U> Stryker: An exit node cannot steal your password if you login via https or any other authentication that can actually be considered secure.
[01:52] <soreau> Un-Dead: So it's fine at first until you close and reopen the tablet?
[01:52] <Un-Dead> correct
[01:52] <Stryker> *cheap dollar store trollometer
[01:52] <soreau> Un-Dead: Sounds like a possible driver issue. Which wifi chip is it?
[01:52] <bazhang> Stryker, please stop the chit chat
[01:52] <Un-Dead> im not sure its an LT2030u gateway
[01:53] <Un-Dead> im sorta an ubuntu noob sorry
[01:53] <Un-Dead> linux noob*
[01:54] <Un-Dead> if it helps in order to get the wireless to work i had to plug the ethernet cable in and run aptitude update

[01:58] <soreau> cypha: That's 32bit AFAIK
[01:59] <B0BBY> hello people.

[01:59] <ubuntuguy> Evertime I log off in ubuntu 11.04, I go to the usual screne, but everytime I type in my correct password, it tells me that it's wrong. And sometimes, it doesn't block out my password. I would have to restart my whole system. Any suggestions?
[02:00] <ubuntuguy> I know that I'm typing in the correct password btw

[02:02] <quackaduck> ubuntuguy: try manually typing the username in your login screen, maybe it's defaulting to a different username, maybe root?
[02:02] <Stryker> !flood
[02:03] <ubuntuguy> I do manually type it in, and how can I check that it's not root
[02:03] <Un-Dead> soreau thankyou, installing the b43 instead of STA drivers seemed to have remedied the issue
[02:03] <soreau> Un-Dead: cool
[02:04] <quackaduck> ubuntuguy: well you'll know that it's root because it will say it
[02:04] <ubuntuguy> Well, it shows my username, but on longer does it show my profile pic.
[02:05] <hypodermia> anybody know a way to migrate AWAY from an encrypted home?
[02:06] <thomi> Hi, Where's the correct place to report issues with the official ubuntu package servers?
[02:06] <quackaduck> ubuntuguy: I dunno, i'd check the login preferences as a start
[02:06] <ubuntuguy> Alright, I'll check it out
[02:08] <ubuntuguy> Where is login preferences?
[02:08] <quackaduck> System>Administration
[02:09] <bmoore> anyone been able to change the theme of gdm in natty?
[02:09] <FisherP> wow, IRC using empathy... that's new to me... well empathy is new too
[02:10] <B0BBY> nobody can run natty.
[02:10] <ubuntuguy> Can't find it
[02:10] <B0BBY> configuration is another isue
[02:10] <FisherP> I'm running natty...
[02:10] <B0BBY> lol
[02:10] <FisherP> had to get rid of unity though
[02:10] <ActionParsnip> B0BBY: works fine here on 2 systems
[02:10] <B0BBY> hehe, unity is the major culprit.
[02:10] <quackaduck> ubuntuguy: it should be under preferences or administration
[02:10] <nit-wit> same here ActionParsnip
[02:10] <FisherP> i didn't like it for the desktop (prob just not use to it)
[02:10] <flowbee> folks.  i am trying to run a script in ~/bin which is in my path.  if i run: 'get-shit-done' within any directory i get the usage message that i must run it as root.  however when i do 'sudo get-shit-done' i see: command not found.  what do i do?
[02:10] <ActionParsnip> B0BBY: log in to gnome classic then...
[02:11] <FisherP> it's good on my wife's netbook though... perfect interface
[02:11] <ubuntuguy> I'm using unity
[02:11] <nit-wit> cube and wobbly windows and all
[02:11] <bazhang> B0BBY, this is not the channel for that, choose classic
[02:11] <B0BBY> ActionParsnip: was using it for netbook. and unity basically took up space on a limited screen.
[02:11] <B0BBY> classic was giving blank screen.
[02:11] <sloucher> sudo ./getshitdone
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> flowbee: in |/.bashrc add the line:  export PATH=$PATH:~/bin
[02:11] <B0BBY> no menus, no nothing, alt-f2 doing nothing.
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> flowbee: ~/.bashrc
[02:12] <flowbee> ActionParsnip, thats already there
[02:12] <FisherP> bobby did u do an upgrade?
[02:12] <FisherP> or fresh install
[02:12] <Chuchulain> hi all ...anyone have a software preference for blogging in ubuntu, and why?
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> flowbee: then run:  source ~/.bashrc
[02:12] <B0BBY> FisherP: did upgrade from 10.04, to 10.10 then 11.04
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> flowbee: to add the new settings
[02:12] <nit-wit> Chuchulain, not the correct channe
[02:12] <B0BBY> rsync for teh w1nz.
[02:13] <nit-wit> Chuchulain, #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:13] <FisherP> yeah when i upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 it did horrible things to both classic and std interface
[02:13] <B0BBY> just backed home and reinstalled
[02:13] <flowbee> thats already in the path for me as a user; i think its not finding the command when sudo is run
[02:13] <Chuchulain> nit-wit, ne idea what is...? it's ubuntu specific/
[02:13] <Chuchulain> ?
[02:13] <FisherP> i pretty much deleted all the gnome and gtk settigns
[02:13] <FisherP> and started again
[02:13] <FisherP> works ok now
[02:13] <nit-wit> Chuchulain, this is the Natty channel not linux
[02:13] <hexdump_> Excuse me folks, I can't remember does how do you check what type of video card you have?
[02:13] <FisherP> (touch wood)
[02:13] <B0BBY> FisherP: lol, yeah motsly the unity was an issue. on limited screen you don't want something that wouldn't just go away.
[02:13] <josuf107> flowbee: it's probably not in root's path
[02:13] <B0BBY> FisherP: they said it would autohide in 11.04 but it NEVER loaded.
[02:13] <B0BBY> lol
[02:14] <xangua> !poll | Chuchulain nit-wit
[02:14] <Chuchulain> nit-wit, k, so where is the general ubuntu channel now?
[02:14] <josuf107> flowbee: you should adjust the permissions of it so that you can execute it
[02:14] <FisherP> bobby very odd, my wife's upgraded just fine
[02:14] <hexdump_> i like men
[02:14] <ActionParsnip> B0BBY: there are guides to make it hide, log in to gnome classic and unity dosn't load
[02:14] <FisherP> bobby it was running 10.10
[02:14] <nit-wit> xangua, point it at the correct user
[02:14] <flowbee> josuf107, i can execute it but it requires root for some stuff with networking it does
[02:14] <B0BBY> ActionParsnip: as I was mentioning earlier classes wouldn't load anything. blank screen. couldn't alt-f2.
[02:15] <hexdump_> Damnit my buddy put that I loved men on here.
[02:15] <B0BBY> ActionParsnip: *classic
[02:15] <FisherP> bobby did u set it up to auto login?
[02:15] <newbieneedshelp> Hi all, does anyone here know how to use dual monitors working with an nVidia GPU in Ubuntu 11.04? I've googled it but i'm getting very weird results (truncated screens, etc, had to restore the backup of the xconf file several times). the nvidia "x server configuration" utility also doesn't seem to work too well. any clue?
[02:15] <newbieneedshelp> thanks in advance!
[02:15] <B0BBY> FisherP: nah. I don't really setup auto login.
[02:15] <hexdump_> Sorry does anyone remember how to check and see what video card I have?
[02:15] <B0BBY> hexdump_: lspci
[02:16] <josuf107> flowbee: why keep it in your home directory then?
[02:16] <B0BBY> FisherP: 10.04 wokrs. so no need to really keep upgrading.
[02:16] <josuf107> flowbee: you can always sudo /home/your_name/bin/script.sh
[02:16] <B0BBY> so put it to that.
[02:16] <hexdump_> Bobby:  thanks man.  Duh I totally forgot.  I can do lsusb and so on.  man I've been away for quite some time.  I appreciate it.
[02:16] <FisherP> bobby yeah, did u re-install? to 10.04?
[02:16] <flowbee> josuf107, i know i want to run it from any dir
[02:17] <ohsix> newbieneedshelp: ask them to add randr support ;]
[02:17] <newbieneedshelp> oshix: is it a known issue? that would be a bummer
[02:17] <B0BBY> FisherP: lol had to reinstall.
[02:17] <B0BBY> FisherP: 'coz officially downgrading is not supported.
[02:17] <ActionParsnip> newbieneedshelp: log into gnome classic, may help
[02:17] <FisherP> bobby thot so... and 10.04 doesn't use unity at all right? just classic...
[02:18] <FisherP> bobby that's why my wife's upgrade went smoothly.. she was already running unity
[02:18] <ubuntuguy> Evertime I log off in ubuntu 11.04, I go to the usual screne, but everytime I type in my correct password, it tells me that it's wrong. And sometimes, it doesn't block out my password. I would have to restart my whole system. Any suggestions?
[02:18] <B0BBY> FisherP: it has a netbook interface and classes. the netbook interface is like old look. but it works great.
[02:18] <B0BBY> FisherP: it has the on desktop application browser thing....
[02:19] <wolter> how can I stop bootchart from running at startup if this fails http://blog.learnadmin.com/ and without doing a chmod -x ?
[02:19] <FisherP> bobby yeah i like the eesypeasy interface.. that was the first one i looked at for my wife's netbook, but then i noticed the 10.10 unity interface, the distro had more up to date support for the eeepc R101
[02:19] <newbieneedshelp> ActionParsnip: Hi, I'm not really sure what that mean; does that mean not using the new Unity UI?
[02:20] <FisherP> bobby did u try a live usb of 11.04?
[02:20] <newbieneedshelp> In the past I managed to get dual monitors with Xinerma to work on a different computer also using nVidia but I had to disable the "compiz" feature, which was disappointing
[02:21] <josuf107> flowbee: sudo runs setuid, so it's effectively root
[02:21] <S4RY> ubuntuguy i whould Boot into recovery mode (from the Grub prompt at the very start of booting), and then run "passwd <myrusername>" .. that should set a new password.
[02:21] <ActionParsnip> newbieneedshelp: its worth it, just tto test. I've heard people having issue with dual monitor and unity
[02:21] <josuf107> flowbee: it's probably best to just put the script in /bin
[02:21] <B0BBY> FisherP: nah, is it really nice? is that why you ask?
[02:22] <newbieneedshelp> ActionParsnip: can you point to an article explaining how to go about it?
[02:22] <B0BBY> FisherP: I just figured 10.04 was working nice, why bother.
[02:22] <newbieneedshelp> I really am a newb, sorry :)
[02:22] <josuf107> flowbee: what you could do is alter your script to raise its permissions on its own
[02:22] <ActionParsnip> !classic | newbieneedshelp
[02:22] <Nozy> I like 11.4
[02:23] <Nozy> think it better then 10.4
[02:23] <newbieneedshelp> Thank you!
[02:23] <newbieneedshelp> well, I guess I'll try that, so I'll need to log out,
[02:23] <Nozy> like that it gets out of my way
[02:23] <FisherP> bobby well i think.. unless u're a power user it's pretty good the unity bar moves out of the way and the apps are integrated into the top launch bar... menus go up the top.. not all apps, but enough
[02:23] <newbieneedshelp> maybe I'll be back later, thanks!
[02:23] <cypha> what's a virtual drive emulator for ubuntu?
[02:24] <cypha> i have a .bin file i'd like to run
[02:24] <gigaclon> I was trying to remove Ubuntu by reformating the partition as NTFS, but I get a unknown filesystem error and a grub rescue prompt. How can I get it to boot to my windows partition?
[02:24] <Nemosis> can anyone point me toward a general ubuntu channel, specifically to garner opinions about software choices?
[02:24] <quackaduck> FisherP: I don't think you can use ubuntu/linux without being a power user...lol
[02:25] <tensorpudding> Nemosis: you can talk about it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:25] <FisherP> quackaduck: my wife, mum, and sister all use k/ubuntu and love it.... (i'm tech support)
[02:25] <FisherP> quackaduck: and none of them are power users
[02:25] <FisherP> :D
[02:25] <B0BBY> FisherP: I like the 10.04 way of doing it.
[02:25] <renegaid> has there ever been an ubuntu release that didn't break something
[02:26] <FisherP> bobby cool
[02:26] <renegaid> wireless no work with 11.04
[02:26] <B0BBY> FisherP: it's nice to see the app have it's own icon instead of unity trying to do windows 7 things.
[02:26] <tensorpudding> renegaid: anecdotal experience points to yes
[02:26] <LAcan> renegaid, u using network manager?
[02:26] <FisherP> renegaid: it does, but what hardware do u have?
[02:26] <B0BBY> it's like kde, the minute they turn to change their whole interace to look like vista, windows changes to 7 and kde already looks old.
[02:26] <cypha> is there a drive emulator that can be used in linux?
[02:26] <B0BBY> cypha: drive emulator?
[02:26] <cypha> i'd like to run a .bin file
[02:26] <Bangkalan> «¤‹¤«¤‹¤«¤‹¤
[02:26] <renegaid> broadcom wireless does not work
[02:26] <cypha> B0BBY, or do i extract a .bin file?
[02:26] <B0BBY> cypha: it's a cd image?
[02:26] <cypha> i was expecting an install
[02:27] <tensorpudding> renegaid: what were you using before, driver-wise?
[02:27] <cypha> i'm not sure
[02:27] <renegaid> read all sorts of work arounds online
[02:27] <cypha> it's just a .bin
[02:27] <LAcan> renegaid, are you using network manager?
[02:27] <B0BBY> cypha: well depends on what's in it. if it's a cd image, you miht be able to mount like iso files.
[02:27] <cypha> B0BBY: http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/motodevstudio/download/
[02:27] <renegaid> i just installed ubuntu
[02:27] <LAcan> renegaid, uve used ubuntu before?
[02:27] <cypha> B0BBY, how do i do that?
[02:28] <philipballew> renegaid congrats!!!
[02:28] <quackaduck> FisherP: lol...but you're there to fix problems in their computers :P I tried setting up 11.04 for someone else once...I don't think ubuntu is at that stage yet where you can eliminate the use of a terminal completely
[02:28] <B0BBY> cypha: that's a windows installer?
[02:28] <FisherP> well about the kde interface, I still reckon it and gnome (with compoziting) make windows look way old school, even win7
[02:28] <renegaid> not on this laptop but from what i read wirless works with 10.10 but 11.04 breaks it
[02:28] <cypha> B0BBY, the Linux download link
[02:28] <cypha> for 32bit
[02:28] <LAcan> renegaid, does the card show up in network manager?
[02:28] <B0BBY> cypha: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-unix-command-run-execute-bin-files-in-linux/
[02:29] <B0BBY> cypha: might be just a executable.
[02:29] <B0BBY> chmod a+x file; then ./file.
[02:29] <renegaid> it shows up in driver list but fails to enable
[02:29] <cypha> why isn't it double clickable!?
[02:29] <FisherP> quackaduck: well, once u set it up, it's fine... yeah sometimes the setup (regarding hardware) isn't perfect.. but once it's set up it's all good
[02:29] <kevinyoung> hi all
[02:29] <B0BBY> cypha: if it's not +x permitted, it might not be double clickable.
[02:29] <Bangkalan> When I start bind9 , there is msg "Domain service name [fail]" what's wrong?
[02:29] <B0BBY> cypha: go to gnome-terminal, then type in chmod a+x filename
[02:29] <josuf107> flowbee: ah you know you should export PATH=$PATH:/home/whoareyou/bin
[02:30] <FisherP> quackaduck: MUCH better than it used to be... my wife, sister, and mother don't play or add programs, or change the system much.. so when it's working, it works.
[02:30] <B0BBY> FisherP: the win 7 I really really like. the kde I like too. I like eyecandy

[02:31] <quackaduck> FisherP: Yeah, that's true. Until ubuntu does an update and breaks something lol.
[02:31] <B0BBY> FisherP: lol, that's where you create a system image, and teach them how to restore.
[02:31] <FisherP> :D
[02:31] <B0BBY> FisherP: but if they like kubuntu,that's solving the windows thing.

[02:32] <B0BBY> *fun
[02:32] <FisherP> causes issues with 3D games like minecraft
[02:32] <renegaid> ubuntu 11.04 is also laggy to me
[02:32] <FisherP> have to keep switching compositing off
[02:32] <renegaid> no where as smooth as win 7
[02:32] <newbieneedshelp> Gnome Classic didn't help :\ still get a truncated screen
[02:32] <josuf107> flowbee: nice work. still, it's interesting
[02:33] <quackaduck> FisherP: I run minecraft completely fine with compositing, though my system overheats sometimes and reach 100 degrees
[02:33] <newbieneedshelp> no dual monitor is a real blow :/ might force me to go back to Vista
[02:33] <newbieneedshelp> that would be tragic
[02:33] <cypha> B0BBY, i've got a couple stupid questions too
[02:33] <B0BBY> cypha: shoot.
[02:33] <FisherP> quackaduck: ouch..
[02:33] <cypha> B0BBY, i can't get the terminal to go to the directory the downloaded file is in
[02:33] <KM0201> newbieneedshelp: did you not set up a dual boot system
[02:33] <Bangkalan> rndc <IP_ADDRESS>#953 = connection refused
[02:33] <B0BBY> cypha: do you know what folder it's in?
[02:33] <B0BBY> cypha: if you used firefox, it should be in ~/Downloads/
[02:33] <cypha> at the terminal prompt, I type "dir" and i see:
[02:33] <cypha> Desktop    Downloads  examples.desktop	Pictures  Templates
[02:33] <cypha> Documents  Dropbox    Music		Public	  Videos
[02:34] <cypha> so i type "cd downloads"
[02:34] <B0BBY> cypha: so type in: cd Downloads
[02:34] <cypha> but it says directory doesn't exist
[02:34] <cypha> OH YEAH
[02:34] <B0BBY> it's case sensitive
[02:34] <escott> cypha, it is case sensitive
[02:34] <cypha> forgot about that
[02:34] <cypha> thanks
[02:34] <newbieneedshelp> KM0201: nope cause I wanted to format the Vista partition anyhow, but I really didn't intend switching OSes anyhow, I wanted Ubuntu to be the only OS
[02:34] <B0BBY> :)
[02:34] <B0BBY> once you type Dow, you can hit tab it will auto comp.
[02:34] <escott> cypha, you can make it not case sensitive with the following addition to your bashrc shopt -s cdspell
[02:34] <KM0201> newbieneedshelp: well, when you're new, not setting up a dual boot system, is a surefire way to reinstall windows within the week
[02:34] <B0BBY> same with filename.
[02:35] <escott> cypha, that way you can type cd down[TAB] and it will correct it to Downloads
[02:35] <cypha> B0BBY, how can I autocomplete the filename?
[02:35] <newbieneedshelp> I have some experience, my office machine is dual booted, everything works perfectly I just can't get the dual monitors to work
[02:35] <B0BBY> type in a few letters then press tab
[02:35] <B0BBY> the tab key
[02:35] <cypha> didn't work
[02:35] <cypha> oh
[02:35] <cypha> did now
[02:35] <B0BBY> you gotta type in enough for it to be able to complete it.
[02:35] <newbieneedshelp> I didn't realize it was simply a big no-no with nvidia drivers :\
[02:35] <B0BBY> otherwise you press twice and it gives you the options it can use.
[02:36] <B0BBY> nvidia drivers tend to be better in linux than the ATI ones.
[02:36] <B0BBY> so I hear. I use nvidia.
[02:37] <newbieneedshelp> I dunno, their "x server config utility" thing does a pretty poor job so far, many configurations are "corrupt" and I need to restore my xconf backup.
[02:37] <cypha> escott, B0BBY, thanks for the help
[02:37] <B0BBY> cool, you get it running?
[02:38] <morcegolas> hi
[02:39] <newbieneedshelp> BOBBY: were you talking to me or to Cypha? if to me than yeah, it works but isn't helpful :)
[02:39] <yassine> is there a way to post install windows on a ubuntu based box without loosing ubuntu?
[02:39] <B0BBY> to cypha
[02:39] <newbieneedshelp> k sry :)
[02:39] <morcegolas> I can't share a folder with my mac, with samba, it always gives me bad user/pass, can anyone help me please?
[02:39] <eekTheCat> can someone reccommend a lightweight calendar application that's not evolution?
[02:39] <escott> !grub | yassine
[02:40] <dios_mio> i bought a laptop with win7 on it but i scrapped that and installed ubuntu on it.. am i stupid?
[02:40] <escott> yassine, you will lose ubuntu momentarily but it is usually easily restored with a live cd
[02:40] <dios_mio> .j windows
[02:40] <yassine> escott, thanks
[02:40] <cypha> B0BBY, yeah, it's running
[02:41] <eekTheCat> sunbird isn't in official ubuntu repos :(
[02:41] <renegaid> dios_mio, yea
[02:41] <B0BBY> cypha: cool.
[02:42] <newbieneedshelp> well, so no clue about dual monitors with nvidia?
[02:42] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: which NVidia you activeted ?
[02:42] <morcegolas> I can't share a folder with my mac, with samba, it always gives me bad user/pass, can anyone help me please?
[02:43] <newbieneedshelp> s4ry: the "(Current Version)" one, but it's listed as "Activated but not currently in use" is this a problem?
[02:43] <TrouberGal> Is there a php-gtk package for 11.04?
[02:43] <Ritlee> I need help with PCRE expression, specifically an exclusion
[02:44] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: if it's activated , it should be the one in used.
[02:45] <freak4pc> Hey all, i hope anyone could assist ... I've god wubi and the 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04 in the same folder... started the installer , everything unpacks, computer reboots - shows 3... 2... 1... ubuntu screen for a second and than just a scrambled display of my screen , as follows : http://i54.tinypic.com/2hn1gyc.jpg
[02:45] <freak4pc> Anyone else have experienced this perhaps?
[02:45] <izinucs> ok.. how come when I hit "super" and enter filemanager or nautilus nothing shows?
[02:46] <newbieneedshelp> s4ry: well, it looks like it's set up correctly but the "additional driver page" has that text listed (that is 'activated but not currently in use') I'm really not Linux savvy enough to understand whether this is significant or not
[02:46] <newbieneedshelp> oh well, I guess I'll just keep googling it up, at least I know how to restore the defaults now
[02:46] <freak4pc> Hey' I am having a problem with installing Ubuntu on a Dell laptop  : http://i54.tinypic.com/2hn1gyc.jpg
[02:46] <Rehan> I have an ubuntu 11.04 install on a flash usb disk. How can I make the grub loader on that disk give me the options of the OS on the flash usb as well as the options on the hard disk of any computer that I plug it into? Thank you.
[02:48] <ActionParsnip> Rehan: you'll need to add entries in the grub2 config files, then run: sudo update-grub
[02:48] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp , i meant to ask to see if nvidia glx is on the list. the glx might do it.  take a look http://www.ubuntugeek.com/dual-monitors-with-nvidia.html
[02:48] <eekTheCat> What does Ubuntu Firefox Modifications do?
[02:48] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | Rehan
[02:48] <izinucs> newbieneedshelp: restart to activate
[02:48] <Rehan> ActionParsnip: thanks, I know how to do that but that doesn't solve the problem I'm trying to solve...
[02:49] <Rehan> ActionParsnip: I want grub2 to probe for new OS's on its own
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> Rehan: maybe:  sudo apt-get install os-prober; sudo os-prober; sudo update-grub
[02:50] <escott> Rehan, i'm not sure that you can do what you want
[02:50] <izinucs> Rehan: the link is good.. you might look at "chainloading" or boot to the usb live and sudo update-grub.. it should search and find them
[02:50] <Rehan> ActionParsnip: i have os-prober already installed, but i don't want to have to go to a new computer, log in, then run update-grub or os-prober. Seeing if there's a solution for it on bootup
[02:50] <newbieneedshelp> s4ry: when running sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx I get error "E: Package 'nvidia-glx' has no installation candidate" - so I don't know how to proceed with that article
[02:50] <bigmack83> i tried installing the proprietary driver for my nvidia geforce 8800 gtx, and it installed fine, no issues. but after i restart the computer freezes as soon as gnome is loaded.have to force reboot.i enter recovery and use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and on next boot it works fine. but once i reboot again gnome freezes immediately.
[02:50] <escott> Rehan, grub2 would need to have a usb driver and initialize that usb system, scan for devices, etc...
[02:50] <bigmack83> unintstalling the proprietary driver seems to have no effect on this
[02:50] <gantrixx> I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04.  I noticed that the X-windows select-and-paste no longer works.  Has anyone else noticed this?
[02:51] <Rehan> escott: initialize the usb system? Doesn't it already do that if i'm booting from the USB and seeing grub?
[02:52] <escott> Rehan, i thought you were booting from hard drive... you are booting from usb and want to boot the hard drive?
[02:52] <bigmack83> also looking into /etc/X11 there is no xorg.conf, only xorg.cong.backup which seems to be the version that was borked. anyone know how i can fix this? otherwise i have to reconfigure on every boot
[02:52] <usr13> bigmack83: What video card do you have?
[02:53] <escott> Rehan, have you added entries to grub.conf?
[02:53] <bigmack83> nvidia geforce 8800 gtx
[02:53] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: but i won't urge for the nvidia-glx , we might find another method as a workaround.
[02:53] <Rehan> escott: i have an ubuntu install on my USB, with grub2 loaded on that. I want to be able to take that USB and plug it into some other computer and have grub give me the option to boot the ubuntu install on the USB AND the option to boot to whatever OS that computer has on its hard drive (windows, ubuntu, whatever).
[02:53] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: ah , there is a differ version for glx.
[02:53] <usr13> bigmack83: Have you installed the nvidia driver for it?  Or are you content in using the OpenSource one?
[02:54] <escott> Rehan, you should just be able to copy the grub.cfg entries to your usb sticks grub.cfg
[02:54] <bigmack83> there is 2 proprietary options and on foss verison. i tried the recommended proprietary one.
[02:54] <Rehan> escott: the grub.cfg entries from which computer?
[02:54] <bigmack83> i dont really care which version as long as it works and it will let me run desktop effects
[02:54] <usr13> bigmack83: Ok then, you probably need to run nvidia-settings
[02:55] <Rehan> escott: i don't think you're understanding my question, probably due to me being terrible at explaining what I'm trying to do
[02:55] <newbieneedshelp> S4RY: I apologize I'm not sure I'm following :(
[02:55] <bigmack83> its uninstalled right now. i opened up the settings panel from the admin menu
[02:55] <FiReSTaRT> stupid natty-related question.. if i have a package that opens and then automatically minimizes into the notification area, how do i get to the open instance in unity?
[02:55] <Rehan> escott: i want to be able to come to your house, plug in my USB flash drive into your computer and have grub automatically show my OS and your OS and let me choose between the two
[02:56] <newbieneedshelp> maybe I should read this article : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaMultiMonitors
[02:56] <Rehan> without me logging in ever before to your system and doing anything with update-grub
[02:56] <bigmack83> right now no driver is installed and it works fine (no desktop effects/compiz/unity) and i know the next time i boot i will have to go into recovery mode and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg else it will crash on gnome loading
[02:56] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: scratch that nvidia-glx method.
[02:56] <usr13> bigmack83: I think you can run desktop effects either way, but if you have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you want to run the proprietary Nvidia driver, then you need to run nvidia-settings so that it will configure and write a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[02:56] <bigmack83> this happened only after i got the driver, but now happend whether its installed or not
[02:57] <bigmack83> usr13, ok ill reinstall the driver and try that and look to see if it made one. uno momento
[02:57] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: that what i was looking for , an Ubuntu documentations , yes .
[02:58] <aeon-ltd> Rehan: not sure if it would work the way you want to, but you could use plop, boot that first then it will allow you to choose the host pc's hdd to boot (their grub) or your own usb (grub)
[02:58] <newbieneedshelp> S4RY: It looks like I already tried most of the things the article suggests but still I'll try to follow their instructions and see if I get any different results
[02:58] <bigmack83> usr13, actuall since i installed natty, unity and effects have not worked for me yet.
[02:58] <newbieneedshelp> Thanks for all the help so far!
[02:59] <Rehan> aeon-ltd: thank you for the help. :)
[03:00] <aeon-ltd> Rehan: link --> http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager.html
[03:00] <bigmack83> usr13, installed driver. need to log out. brb
[03:01] <izinucs> When you make a new shortcut in nautilus is there a way/place to edit it?
[03:01] <S4RY> newbieneedshelp: which article have you followed ?
[03:02]  * edwardthefma is trying to decide on with type of destop effects he wants any 1 got any good sugestions :)
[03:02] <newbieneedshelp> S4RY: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaMultiMonitors - but I tried using 'seperate X screen' rather than TwinView, I'll give 'TwinView' a try
[03:02] <newbieneedshelp> S4RY: Oh yeay!
[03:02] <S4RY> ah, alright good luck with that. ;)
[03:02] <newbieneedshelp> S4RY: TwinView works ! no reboot required!
[03:03] <newbieneedshelp> What joy! :)
[03:03] <S4RY> ;D
[03:03] <aeon-ltd> edwardthefma: ask in offtopic
[03:03] <newbieneedshelp> Thank you very much!
[03:03] <aeon-ltd> edwardthefma: alfonse is there...... :)
[03:03] <newbieneedshelp> Well, I can rest easily now! :)
[03:04] <ubuntu> hello i need help need i install restricted and non free on lubuntu 10.10
[03:04] <newbieneedshelp> Once again, thank you very much. Have a great night you all.
[03:04] <aeon-ltd> !restricted | ubuntu
[03:04] <S4RY> have a good one newbieneedshelp
[03:04] <gantrixx> I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04.  I noticed that the X-windows select-and-paste no longer works.  Has anyone else noticed this?
[03:04] <abstrakt> how do I use my network connections without using network-manager-gnome
[03:05] <abstrakt> like how would I choose what wifi to connect to, enter a password, etc, from the command line
[03:05] <qin> abstrakt: nmcli
[03:05] <abstrakt> or, from e.g. fluxbox or openbox where I don't have a "network manager" applet
[03:05] <abstrakt> qin, sweet, thanks :)
[03:05] <abstrakt> also, since we're on a roll
[03:05] <Tweaky> hey everyone. i just upgraded to 11.04 but when i start it freezes part way through. if i select the grub option previous versions and choose the first item there ubuntu starts up as it should. any ideas?
[03:05] <ubuntu> but need i?
[03:06] <abstrakt> how come my panel applets *usually* load funky the first time i login after boot, but all I have to do to fix them is log out and log back in
[03:06] <gantrixx> I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04.  I noticed that the X-windows select-and-paste no longer works.  Has anyone else noticed this?
[03:06] <abstrakt> like, I run a 9x9 desktop grid, 90-99% of the time, on first login after boot, my desktop switcher panel applet is totally garbled, half cut off and just unusable... all I have to do to fix it is simply log out and log back in
[03:07] <abstrakt> gantrixx, upgraded or did a wipe and a clean install?
[03:07] <S4RY> Tweaky: hi , have you tried one of the boot parameter options.
[03:07] <abstrakt> maybe it doesn't matter these days, i'm always paranoid about just doing a clean install
[03:07] <abstrakt> qin, ^ any ideas on that?
[03:07] <gantrixx> abstrakt, I did an upgrade
[03:08] <S4RY> i've faced the same issue one. Tweaky
[03:08] <kneaux> When I go to burn a disc with Brasero, it immediately ejects the disc and gives me "GStreamer encountered a general stream error." I literally just burned a disc ten minutes ago, and then it started doing this. Tried multiple discs and rebooting. Any ideas?
[03:08] <S4RY> *once.
[03:08] <ubuntu> help i have lubuntu 10.10 try restricted yes or not?
[03:08] <Tweaky> S4RY: boot paramater option in grub?
[03:08] <kneaux> (hello everybody, feliz seis de mayo)
[03:08] <S4RY> Tweaky: thats right ,
[03:09] <abstrakt> hmm
[03:09] <abstrakt> qin, "It is not meant as a replacement of nm-applet or other similar clients." <- so you still need something
[03:09] <escott> Rehan, dont think what you describe is possible
[03:09] <abstrakt> qin, so what would that something be?
[03:09] <escott> Rehan, but if you find a way let me know
[03:09] <Rehan> escott: looking into using PLOP + Grub2
[03:10] <FiReSTaRT> ok so any tips on switching to a running application that's minimized to the tray?
[03:10] <qin> abstrakt: widc, or just iwconfig with wpa_suplicant
[03:11] <abstrakt> qin, ok, well that would only be for wireless networks, right?
[03:11] <usr13> FiReSTaRT: Mouse quit working?
[03:11] <escott> kneaux, no problems playing the audio?
[03:11] <FiReSTaRT> usr13: i don't see it in the notification area
[03:11] <FiReSTaRT> usr13: friggin unity
[03:11] <usr13> o
[03:12] <qin> abstrakt: Yes, with WPA there is a bit hussle to get it work.
[03:12] <kneaux> escott, no. I just took a look at the log, it's failing because I'm burning FLAC files now
[03:12] <abstrakt> qin, yeah i'm aware :(
[03:12] <abstrakt> qin, but whatever, one of these days I will figure it out :)
[03:12] <FiReSTaRT> usr13: if i could have seen it, that would have been easy
[03:12] <izinucs> FiReSTaRT: look on the left in the icon bar.. you'll see little triangles next to active icons.. the bar also scrolls up and down
[03:13] <qin> !wicd > abstrakt
[03:14] <kneaux> escott, it's odd, I can put the flac in the project, but as soon as it tries to start preparing the burn it ejects the CD instead
[03:14] <FiReSTaRT> izinucs: pops open the chat window (amsn) but not the actual contact list window
[03:15] <Tweaky> S4RY: which boot options am  i looking to change?
[03:17] <bigmack83> usr13, ok so it seems to work now. i even actually see the unity dock. but now i apparently cant drag or open any windows into my other screen. im also unable to right click the top panel to move it to the other monitor. any ideas?
[03:18] <bigmack83> although my mouse by itself can move into the other screen
[03:18] <S4RY> Tweaky: this is how i've done it , added ' nomodeset ' backspaced the 2 "--" and went back to grub hit 'e' looked for the line where there was two words , splash and the other i can't quite remember. finaly reboot. thats about it.
[03:18] <bigmack83> but i cannot right click
[03:18] <tripelb> ubuntufan (me) quits @linuxforums.org completely and clearly tells them why. their pages spawn me with adverts on several layers, that have to be clicked, and that hide out and make audio. GNASH. out. all quit. all deleted. FTW #ubuntu.
[03:19] <sadie> help me i need to know if should i install restricted in lubuntu 10.10
[03:19] <S4RY> Tweaky: you could try any of them , all of them at once.
[03:19] <rifqi> hello
[03:19] <unforgiven512> Argh, compiz is leaking memory on my laptop like a broken water main leaks water =/
[03:20] <rifqi> my ubuntu codec Maverick
[03:20] <bigmack83> heres my xorg.conf file http://paste.ubuntu.com/604298/
[03:20] <rifqi> hello frankyjoe
[03:20] <Tweaky> S4RY: its strange because i can start with and old kernal, any idea how i can try to re-install the new kernel?
[03:20] <sadie> heeeeelp me
[03:20] <rifqi> hello sadie
[03:20] <S4RY> Tweaky: for more informations , see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[03:20] <sadie> hello
[03:21] <rifqi> hw r you today
[03:21] <FyreFoX> hi, I upgraded from maverick to natty on this laptop it has a intel video card. It now wont go full screen, there are wide black strips on either side. It worked fine in maverick. When booting off the live cd the installer works fine too. Any suggestions on what I can do to determine where the problem lies?
[03:21] <rifqi> hello fyrefox
[03:21] <sadie> bad !!!!should i install restricted  in lubutnu 10.10
[03:21] <FyreFoX> hi rifqi
[03:22] <escott> FyreFoX, first see what modes xrandr lists by typing "xrandr" in a terminal
[03:22] <rifqi> nice to konow you
[03:22] <kneaux> ggghhhhhhhhhax.
[03:22] <kneaux> k3b won't do mp3 >_<
[03:22] <kneaux> at least not as it ships
[03:22] <rifqi> any problem with your ubuntu
[03:22]  * kneaux *grumble*
[03:22] <escott> kneaux, have you installed restricted-extras?
[03:22] <S4RY> Tweaky: no idea yet , on how to in your situation , i whould go with the Boot parameters options method first.
[03:22] <rifqi> hello escott
[03:23] <abstrakt> qin, so what about non-wireless networks
[03:23] <Tweaky> S4RY: all right ill give it a shot
[03:23] <abstrakt> qin, is there something akin to wicd for wireless networks?
[03:23] <FyreFoX> escott: yep current is 1024x768 under that it also lists 1366x768 which is what I want I suspect
[03:23] <abstrakt> qin, or should I just use ifconfig?
[03:23] <kneaux> escott, what's the package name (no)
[03:23] <abstrakt> derp s/for wireless/for non-wireless/g
[03:23] <usr13> abstrakt: iwconfig
[03:23] <rifqi> how can i know chipshet wireless by command terminal
[03:24] <sadie> thanks
[03:24] <escott> !restricted | kneaux
[03:24] <abstrakt> usr13, no, for non-wireless networks :)
[03:24] <sadie> i dont know if should i install restricted
[03:24] <OY1R> im using gnome 2.32 in ubuntu 11.04 can i kill/delete unity window decorator ?
[03:24] <sadie> i have lubuntu 10.10
[03:24] <abstrakt> kneaux, so use lame?
[03:25] <escott> kneaux, ubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:25] <FyreFoX> escott: oh wow.. xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1366x768 !
[03:25] <kneaux> i'm gonna try libk3b6-extracodecs...it's just obnoxious that I obviously have libraries that will decode, encode, burn, /whatever/ MP3, but k3b won't do it without being told to. #opensourcefail
[03:25] <abstrakt> kneaux, more like #closedsourcefail
[03:25] <escott> FyreFoX, it may not stick on logout unfortunately but at least it is working. the simplest solution may be to add this to your gnome-session
[03:26] <abstrakt> "all my open source libs work, my closed source lib is broken, therefor open source = fail"
[03:26] <abstrakt> gotta love that kind of logic
[03:26] <S4RY> !wireless > rifqi
[03:26] <escott> FyreFoX, or unity-session... not sure what it is called now
[03:26] <LinuxGuy2009> Is there a place online to download a deb package build of ardour with vst support?
[03:26] <FyreFoX> escott: nice one. Thanks heaps !
[03:27] <abstrakt> LinuxGuy2009, ask #ardour
[03:27] <sadie> alquien puede ayudarme?
[03:27] <abstrakt> LinuxGuy2009, VST is overrated IMO
[03:28] <S4RY> !wireless | rifiq
[03:28] <kneaux> abstrakt, mp3 being closed source isn't the problem, it's the package coordination (opensource) that's not working here
[03:28] <abstrakt> kneaux, keep telling yourself that
[03:29] <kneaux> thanks for lowering this conversation to the point of insulting my intelligence
[03:29] <abstrakt> back atcha
[03:29] <usr13> kneaux: Did you install restricted-extras yet?
[03:29] <LinuxGuy2009> abstrakt: thanks
[03:29] <sje> how do you rename files recursively?  Please SIMPLE solutions only.
[03:30] <kneaux> usr13, i have restricted-extras. that's not the issue. k3b doesn't ship being able to read .mp3.
[03:30] <escott> sje, what do you mean by that
[03:30] <abstrakt> sje, with... rename
[03:30] <abstrakt> sje, man rename
[03:30] <sadie> somebody helpeee meeeee
[03:30] <usr13> kneaux: Thats not ture
[03:30] <kneaux> i mean, if one thing supports burning mp3 on my system, there's no good reason another thing shouldn't
[03:30] <VE2EBP> Stryker, thanks for the help. I switched the software sources under other software to canada server. Works good now. Thanks a lot. It's weird, just yesterday I l.. ooked at lloyd Bridges yesterday on the internet about his role in airplane.
[03:31] <sje> abstrakt: rename doesn't have a recursive option
[03:31] <kneaux> okay, well, maybe not for you, but it is for me, being as how i just installed k3b, and when i tried, it didn't let me.
[03:31] <sje> escott: I want to change all file names in a tree to lowercase
[03:31] <abstrakt> sje, find .... -exec rename ....
[03:31] <abstrakt> sje, find is your friend :)
[03:31] <sje> abstrakt: so I go to the directory, and do
[03:31] <kneaux> maybe it's not clear that i've never had a problem burning mp3 and the only reason this is an issue is because brasero - and this is totally an opensourcefail right here - won't deal with flac without going through some, ha ha, flak.
[03:31] <Stryker> your very welcome VE2EBP
[03:32] <sje> find . -exec rename (etc)
[03:32] <abstrakt> sje, probably useful to read up on find -exec
[03:32] <sadie> alguieeeeee
[03:32] <kneaux> anyway, it's working now since i downloaded the "extra codecs" package, so apparently the problem is that opensourcers keep thumbing their nose at .mp3, not that .mp3 is closed-source per se.
[03:32] <escott> sje, im not sure that is going to qualify as simple, but its doable with a combination of find, xargs, and sed
[03:33] <sje> Yeah, that isn't simple
[03:33] <abstrakt> blah, no xargs
[03:33] <abstrakt> find -exec
[03:33] <sje> why doesn't it have a reursive option?  ugg
[03:33] <abstrakt> xargs kinda sucks
[03:33] <abstrakt> sje, so modify it to have a recursive option
[03:33] <izinucs> kneaux: ah.. but it is.. it's a paid codec .. when you have windows the license is paid as part of the cost of windows
[03:33] <abstrakt> sje, it is, after all, open source, you can simply contribute a patch to the open source community
[03:33] <html_inprogress> hey
[03:33] <Tweaky> S4RY:  hmm i had no luck but it will start up in safe graphics mode although the resolution is bad
[03:33] <abstrakt> sje, did you see my message?
[03:33] <sje> abstrakt: I don't know how to program
[03:34] <abstrakt> sje, well, i know people who taught themselves to program when they were 35
[03:34] <html_inprogress>  hey what distro do i use for this ? http://www.google.com/products/catalog?client=ubuntu&channel=cs&q=toshiba+satellite+l305-s5875&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=4157104064488514059&sa=X&ei=Jp7ETfyIC6jZ0QGQl7C0CA&ved=0CDoQ8wIwAQ#
[03:34] <abstrakt> like, not particularly technical people even
[03:34] <abstrakt> multiple of them
[03:34] <abstrakt> sje, so... i don't really know what to tell ya, maybe you should use something like Mac OS
[03:34] <abstrakt> sje, did you not see my msg?
[03:35] <sje> abstrakt: yes I got your message.  Don't be an elitistdouche
[03:35] <unshift> Anyone know of a quick fix to get sound output on a lenovo ideapad z560?
[03:35] <kneaux> izinucs, i know that, my point is that wasn't what was preventing me from burning mp3, it's opensource snobbiness.
[03:35] <izinucs> sje: if you want to use the gui to do it let me know and I'll tell you
[03:35] <cntrational> does Ubuntu support Intel GMA 3150?
[03:35]  * kneaux is an opensource snob
[03:35] <sje> you shoudlnt' have to know how to program to uselinux
[03:35] <escott> abstrakt, how would you do it with -exec that will only you need to pop the value into sed to lowercase it... I ask because my find skills are week
[03:35] <escott> weak
[03:35] <abstrakt> sje, wow dude, ok then nevermind
[03:35] <kneaux> abstrakt, he's right.
[03:35] <abstrakt> sje, dude, keep it, i don't want none, if you're gonna snap and get all krunk lol
[03:35] <sje> well you're insulting me, being patronizing
[03:35] <sje> thanks for the help and all, but still
[03:35] <abstrakt> you're being whiny and stupid
[03:36] <kneaux> sje, don't take it personally, he was a dick to me, too.
[03:36] <abstrakt> so whatever
[03:36] <sje> you're saying "Well if you want to solve this minor problem, learn how to program"
[03:36] <izinucs> sje: if you want to use the gui to do it let me know and I'll tell you
[03:36] <usr13> kneaux: Oh, you are just trying to burn mp3s onto a CD ?
[03:36] <abstrakt> sje, well apparently reading the very straightforward tutorial i linked you to was far too difficult
[03:36] <unshift> lol
[03:36] <kneaux> usr13, well, yeah, i was trying, now i am succeeding
[03:36] <sje> thanks izinucs for the offer...but it's in a shell
[03:36] <escott> sje, you don't need a recursive option for the find, just just need to process the paths intelligently before passing them to move, and find can give you the full path
[03:36] <kneaux> usr13, actually i was trying to burn mp3s /and/ flacs on the same cd, and apparently that was my mistake :P
[03:36] <usr13> kneaux: Ok well good.    Thanks for linking me to it.  It probably hasthe answer to it
[03:37] <cntrational> what a douche
[03:37] <izinucs> sje: follow the link... doing cli work is learning the syntax.. sometimes it feels like programming and can be translated there for bash scripting
[03:38] <kneaux> hey, abstrakt, we all know you're better than us. i may get banned for this, but it's worth it: shut your fuck.
[03:38] <sje> i'm just saying don't be all like "If you don't know hwo to program, you shouldnt be using linux"
[03:38] <escott> sje, don't worry about it, everyone has to start learning somewhere
[03:38] <sje> What I'm trying to find out is how to do the syntax
[03:38] <izinucs> sje: don't judge all the help here by one individual.. when we can help we do..
[03:38] <sje> PLEASE don't be condescending...is that too much?
[03:39] <usr13> sje: It's not programming, just learning some CLI options.
[03:39] <escott> you unfortunately choose a somewhat more complicated problem to start with
[03:39] <sje> escott: I'm not beginning, that's why
[03:39] <kneaux> huh. i didn't have package "flac" installed, yet i could read flac.
[03:39] <kneaux> sar
[03:40] <escott> sje, ok sorry
[03:40] <kneaux> oops, disregard
[03:41] <sje> "Why doesn't this command have a recursive option." "modify it yourself and add a patch" "I don't know how to program, though" "Then maybe you'll be moer comfortable with MAC OS"
[03:41] <sje> that's allI'm mad about
[03:42] <sje> usr13: I didn't say anything was programming
[03:42] <izinucs> sje: so does the -r or -R switch work?
[03:42] <cntrational> again, does Ubuntu support Intel GMA 3150? I've been having resolution problems and I'm wondering if it is related
[03:42] <sje> izinucs: no, it doesn't have that option
[03:42] <izinucs> sje: does no mean you tried and it didn't work?
[03:43] <escott> sje, yeah what he said was obnoxious, but i don't think you need recursion
[03:43] <sje> escott: what else would I need?
[03:43] <escott> sje, find is by its nature "recursive" in that it will give you all the paths to all the files beginning at the starting directory
[03:43] <sje> izinucs: unknown option r
[03:44] <izinucs> sje: k.. like escott says.. find coupled with the command might work through a pipe "|"
[03:44] <escott> sje, so if you can drop that full path into sed you can construct the move command, and then try to execute that
[03:44] <sje> I'm talking about the command "rename" btw, not "find".  Find is, itself, reursive.
[03:44] <Khisanth> find is also unnecessary if you have a fixed depth(s)
[03:44] <qin> sje: find . -type f -exec rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' * {} \; (You will use that form quite often in bash, so enjoy, and carefull where you will execute it).
[03:44] <cntrational> this is so tiring
[03:45] <usr13> I really thing some of us should realize that no one is picking on anyone else.  We are exchanging information.  Some times when we are breif in our comments or answers, it comes off as being condesending or rude, but it's not.  We should not be so thin-skinned that we take everyting someone says on an IRC chat channel as personal attacts or insults.
[03:45] <k_sze> anybody got freenx or neatx working in Natty?
[03:46] <sje> qin: if you don't mind me asking...what do those brackets do?
[03:46] <izinucs> cntrational: support for intel is built in.. open a terminal and type xrandr to see the modes that it currently recognizes
[03:46] <sje> and teh slash
[03:46] <escott> sje, the filename is placed there (with the relative path)
[03:47] <escott> sje, so if your path has caps this could be problematic... (maybe)
[03:47] <cntrational> izinucs: yes, I have done all that several times. xrandr does not recognize the correct resolution by default, X -configure does not work, and there's nothing anywhere that tells me clearly what to do
[03:47] <qin> sje: Yes * is overkill, my bad.
[03:48] <sje> well it works fine, qin
[03:48] <qin> sje: Overkill, not foo
[03:48] <izinucs> cntrational: did anyone give you the ubottu link to xrandr? or resolution?
[03:48] <Tweaky> alright i finally managed to start up normally and have 2 problems. 1. transmission will not run. 2. i cant move the windows on screen?
[03:49] <qin> sje: Peolpe calling it "find -exec" form, and it is very usefull.
[03:49] <cntrational> izinucs: yes
[03:49] <izinucs> cntrational: the resolution link should have told you how to add the correct resolution
[03:50] <cntrational> izinucs: yes. and they didn't work
[03:50] <izinucs> cntrational: once added you have to enable it .. did you verify that it was added? then did you enable it?
[03:51] <S4RY> Tweaky: Excuse me , i wen to grab my coffee , so have you tried all of them options.
[03:51] <cntrational> izinucs: added as in using xrandr --addmode? yes, I did that, that works, but it does not last persistently across sessions and causes the Unity top panel to break
[03:52] <plustax> im having a small issue. Whenever I close my laptop when im done with it, I come back and open it and the screen is all glitched out and Im forced to restart.
[03:52] <plustax> What could be the issue there? Running 11.04
[03:52] <izinucs> cntrational: humm.. hang on a sec
[03:52] <Tweaky> S4RY: yes i did to no avail... i reinstalled the kernel and im up and running, just a couple small issues to work through
[03:52] <LinuxGuy2009> Are there any mirrors or known sites that host jigdo files of the full repository DVD set?
[03:53] <S4RY> ah , good going.
[03:53] <izinucs> cntrational: did you see this page? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Setting%20xrandr%20changes%20persistently
[03:54] <Tweaky> S4RY: in unity am i suppoes to be able to move the windows that are open? i cant seem to be able to resize or move them
[03:54] <izinucs> Tweaky: are they full screen?
[03:54] <Tweaky> S4RY: no
[03:54] <LinuxGuy2009> Ah NM I see there is.
[03:54] <cntrational> izinucs: yes. .xprofile does nothing, gdm did nothing, and my attempts to use xorg.conf didn't work
[03:55] <izinucs> cntrational: nvidia or what?
[03:57] <Tweaky> izinucs: no they arent full screen
[03:57] <DIFTOW> hi
[03:57] <DIFTOW> Does Ubuntu come with OpenGL libraries?
[03:58] <cntrational> izinucs: lspci | grep -i vga says "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)", BUT, switching over to my Windows partition and checking Device Manager says "Intel GMA 3150"
[03:58] <izinucs> DIFTOW: believe so
[03:58] <DIFTOW> Cause, nothing 3D that uses OpenGL.. is running smooth at all
[03:58] <S4RY> Tweaky: i haven't used unity yet.
[03:58] <DIFTOW> I'm using an Nvidia GXT 580
[03:58] <DIFTOW> Duke Nukem shouldn't be lagging me :3
[03:58] <DIFTOW> GTX*
[03:58] <Tweaky> S4RY: what luck you have then!
[03:59] <DIFTOW> I notice in 11.04.. it displays that "driver is activated but not in use".
[03:59] <Tweaky> anyone else having issues running transmission?
[03:59] <S4RY> Tweaky: ;D
[04:00] <DIFTOW> how do i know if i have all the openGL libraries?
[04:00] <DIFTOW> I have a powerful card, and Ubuntu runs games like a 1995 retail PC
[04:01] <conner> can anyone tell me how I can aquire an xorg.conf file?
[04:01] <izinucs> cntrational: googling I come up with some issues with that card but they are old.. perhaps more research on www.google.com/linux will help.. sorry I'm stuck at this point
[04:01] <conner> I am using the 3d noveau drivers

[04:04] <bmw123> question:  when I log onto ubuntu server, I get the following msg, "26 packages can be updated.  14 updates are security updates."  but I had already did a aptget upgrade and update and nothing is left to update???  any idea
[04:05] <Furbi> hey, is anyone able to help / point to some help for installation problems? ubuntu 11.04 the x86 version, tho ive tried a few different versions. seems to freeze and different points.
[04:05] <DIFTOW> D:<
[04:05] <conner> Furbi are you making sure your iso's md5 sum matches the original ?
[04:05] <DIFTOW> Ubuntu claimed this was stable
[04:06] <DIFTOW> I installed had to install three times. I've wasted my entire day on Ubuntu.
[04:06] <Furbi> conner : yes i have checked that for each version i tried
[04:06] <izinucs> bmw123: do a full upgrade ... sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:06] <DIFTOW> Please don't tell me, that they can't get Nvidia crap right
[04:06] <bmw123> thanks
[04:06] <izinucs> DIFTOW: nvidia works fine for me
[04:07] <DIFTOW> Brag more
[04:07] <izinucs> DIFTOW: nvidia has always worked well for me on several machines :)
[04:07] <DIFTOW> you're ignored
[04:07] <Osmodivs> DIFTOW, Yeah, nVidia works fine
[04:07] <Osmodivs> XD
[04:07] <izinucs> DIFTOW: great
[04:08] <DIFTOW> I've run the installation from Package Manager
[04:08] <plustax> S4RY, yes it is
[04:08] <izinucs> DIFTOW: and restarted?
[04:08] <DIFTOW> I've uninstalled, run it from the Additional Drivers
[04:08] <Osmodivs> DIFTOW,  Just install the one from nVidia's site, Thats what i do
[04:08] <DIFTOW> It does the same thing.. It says it is activated, but not in use
[04:08] <DIFTOW> I don't know how
[04:09] <DIFTOW> isnt it like uncompiled?
[04:09] <izinucs> Osmodivs: it's not "that easy" if you don't know the stepss..
[04:09] <Osmodivs> !nvidia
[04:09] <Limada> Thanks to people like Chipzzz who was to hours helping me and I could solve my problem!!!! very happy!

[04:15] <S4RY> plustax do you have an Intel graphics hardware ?
[04:15] <madprops> Hi, i can't install get-build-deps, is it called something else now?
[04:15] <GhostWolf> hi all, i am wondering if im upgrading ubuntu with the newest version from update manager do i need to save all my files?
[04:15] <plustax> S4RY, I have nvidia
[04:16] <plustax> perhaps some drivers I need to install?
[04:16] <escott> GhostWolf, you shouldn't but its always a good idea to have backups in case something doesnt work
[04:16] <plustax> intel processor though
[04:16] <alishah> hi, me and my friend on same vps server, i want leave him a message so when he logs in to his account he recieve it.
[04:16] <alishah> can i do that?
[04:16] <DIFTOW> D:
[04:16] <DIFTOW> According to package manager, the latest is already installed
[04:16] <GhostWolf> escott well reason im asking cause i want to but it takes me forever and sometimes i even tend to lose files as well
[04:16] <S4RY> plustax okay , i was looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#Force%20Pipe%20A%20Quirk
[04:17] <DIFTOW> 270.41.06.. is the latest.. thats what Ubuntu gave me
[04:17] <tripelb> I want to test my skype
[04:18] <usr13> tripelb: Do the test call.
[04:18] <bzzzz> !help
[04:18] <GhostWolf> but thanks anyways escott i just didn't really want to go through the time and trouble of saving thousands of files i have since i don't have alot of rw discs to use
[04:18] <bzzzz> is dpkg defunct?
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: use the test call
[04:18] <bzzzz> oh wait, that's for #debian
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: no it is used by apt-get and software-centre to install packages
[04:18] <GhostWolf> anyways have a good night all
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: debian still uses dpkg too
[04:19] <escott> GhostWolf, well its nearly impossible that your files would be lost, but you could always end up with a system that doesn't boot, and would have to use a live cd to get access to them again
[04:19] <ReVisions> i think he dont know
[04:19] <ReVisions> ubuntu based debian
[04:19] <ReVisions> oO
[04:19] <bzzzz> ActionParsnip: i meant the irc entity
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: how do you mean
[04:19] <bzzzz> ActionParsnip: join #debian, hit !help, see dpkg respond
[04:21] <gantrixx> I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04.  I noticed that the X-windows select-and-paste no longer works.  Has anyone else noticed this?

[04:21] <bzzzz> anyway, i'm triyng to create a usb-based installer out of the iso i downloaded, but the instructions @ !help usb aren't too clear about what to do with the rest of the 500-odd MB of stuff that doesn't exist in caseper/
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> !remaster | bzzzz
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: you can transfer the iso to the usb using unetbootin
[04:22] <bzzzz> uh, it's not a live cd iso...
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: in windows you can use unetbootin too
[04:22] <bzzzz> ActionParsnip: yeah, i was hoping for a more straightforward cli way of doing it, besides 'oh, install usb-creator or X and click the gui'
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: uh, it doesn't matter if its a live desktop ISO
[04:23] <bzzzz> ActionParsnip: i'm actually on a debian laptop right now, but i wanna get ubuntu on my desktop
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> bzzzz: unetbootin is available in the debain reop too

[04:25] <disw> i believe that there are security risks to adding a shell script to visudo. or maybe that was the s bit. are there ways to do this safely?
[04:25] <bzzzz> ActionParsnip: unetbootin really doesn't help me at this point. i just spent 2 hours downloading the install iso, just to follow the instructions on the ubuntu wiki, which turns out to be a dead end.
[04:25] <bzzzz> or maybe it's not a dead-end, but it's surprisingly difficult to find simple dd/grub-install guides for zapping my usb with the iso
[04:26] <hiexpo> wow

[04:31] <S4RY> rpk: you might need to get a clue about the installation method ,if it's your first time installing Ubuntu.
[04:31] <Rob25> Can somebody help me with a technical issue?
[04:31] <redinthehead> yea
[04:32] <rpk> S4RY, what should I be doing differently?

[04:33] <princt> Hi. I want Ubiquity to know about some LVM volumes I have so I can install Ubuntu in one of its partitions. I am following this guide: http://sysadminsjourney.com/content/2008/12/16/use-lvm-installation-ubuntu but "sudo vgscan" won't find anything. Any ideas?
[04:33] <S4RY> rpk: 11.04 got a new GUI installer , thats all. ;P
[04:33] <ReVisions> i remember there was a bug
[04:33] <dualcore> Rob25: just ask your question. don't ask if you can ask a question.
[04:33] <rpk> S4RY,  I don't get that far in the install
[04:34] <rpk> I attempt to boot the cd, and I've getting kernel panic, something about a VFS partition not mounting
[04:34] <tripelb> it failed. sob. actionparsnip and usr13
[04:34] <Rob25> Ok, when I try to set up my email in Evolution, all of the text disappears when I put my mouse over the forward button.
[04:34] <usr13> Rob25: Yea, don't be bashful
[04:34] <arand> princt: I think you might need to use the alternate installer for lvm.. Have you tried "vgchange -a y"
[04:34] <asmodeus> just upgraded to 11.04...how do I get my menus back?
[04:35] <Rob25> asmodeus: when logging in, log in as classic Ubuntu
[04:35] <princt> arand: yes, tried that too.  No volume groups found
[04:35] <asmodeus> Rob25: groovy...will try
[04:35] <S4RY> rpk: hmm , hold on.
[04:35] <rpk> ok, it just happened again, brand new cd, verified it.  "Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (104,1)"

[04:40] <redinthehead> ReVisions i changed to 11.04 because i had the problem with 10.08
[04:40] <REK> ReVisions: 10.04LTS has no support for sandy bridge ... right?
[04:40] <semitones> is there anything I can do to find out quantitatively why natty is slower than maverick?
[04:40] <rpk> S4RY?  did you see my reply?  (it was right below your response to me)
[04:41] <dualcore> Rob25 what was the solution?
[04:42] <Rob25> dualcore: Continually pressing alt makes the text appear shortly, but enough to see what it says.
[04:42] <dualcore> Rob25: do you have that problem in any other windows?
[04:43] <Rob25> dualcore: Not that I know of.

[04:53] <juabn> como es la sintaxis en BASH para que un FOR ejecute 2 comando a la vez
[04:53] <tripelb> interesting skype wont close when you close it you have to killall it
[04:54] <tripelb> skype wont open with the instructions on that page, editing the menu.
[04:54] <asmodeus> so...after the update to 11.04, the nvidia drivers don't work anymomre.  The 'additional drivers' box says that the current version is installed, but at the bottom there is a green light next to "this driver is activated but not currently in use".  How do I 'use' it?
[04:54] <juabn> i need in bash  to comand "for" execute 2 comands
[04:54] <tripelb> wait there might be a skype group. ActionParsnip I am going there first.

[04:56] <coz_> rpk,   ok and do you know offhand the video card you have on that system?
[04:56] <redinthehead> coz_ any idea about the not being able to open any windows thing
[04:56] <rpk> I went to "get ubuntu", picked 64 bit, and downloaded
[04:56] <redinthehead> 11.04 classic
[04:57] <S4RY> rpk: and it just stuck there ?
[04:57] <rpk> coz_ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/672602/system%20setup.txt is my system details
[04:57] <coz_> redinthehead,  I am thinking about that one,, first place I would start is to  hit ctrl+alt+F1   login     sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade,,, then    when that it finished,,,  sudo restart gdm and try again

[04:58] <coz_> rpk,    does it come up to a prompt at all?

[04:58] <rpk> and no, no prompt
[04:58] <kNightWolf> Why doesn't elegant-gnome install on 11.04?
[04:59] <redinthehead> Sonja you could always stream the file

[04:59] <djindy> Hello, I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 and right now I can't seem to cd to several folders from terminal. I can move to them graphically, and I can see the folders when I ls from the containing folder, but I can't cd into the folders themselves. it tells me "No such file or directory" when I am clearly looking at the folders at that location.
[04:59] <rsthdn_> @Sonja thats awesome
[04:59] <redinthehead> hmmmm getting that to sync could be tricky. give me one moment
[04:59] <Sonja> rsthdn_: awesome that i want to do that?

[05:00] <Sonja> redinthehead:  ok :)
[05:00] <thesurge> Any documentation/solutions on how to get wifi working on an asus eeepc with Ubuntu 11.04?
[05:01] <Sonja> thesurge: have you tried Fn F2?

[05:01] <thesurge> of course I have, 1001-
[05:01] <thesurge> 1001p
[05:01] <coz_> rpk,  ok not   finding much about that,,  let me ask how you  burned the iso,, did you check the md5sum on the iso image first and then burn it at 1x ?
[05:01] <redinthehead> sonja look up pulse audio for ubuntu
[05:01] <Sonja> i have 1005pe and it worked out of the box

[05:02] <bullgard4> Where will I find the new blueprints of UDS in Launchpad next week?
[05:02] <kNightWolf> Does anyone know what elegant-gnome ppa doesn't work?
[05:02] <thesurge> I got 10.10 to work, but havn't had luck with 11.04, would dual booting it with windows 7 be an issue?
[05:02] <kNightWolf> why*
[05:02] <rpk> coz_ I used the built in windows burner.  But I did manage to get the cd to load once in the past, and verified the cd then (I was getting a ubi-partman error then)
[05:02] <coz_> thesurge,   look here   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes
[05:02] <rpk> coz_ but, I've gone through two different cds now, one verified, one burned through Alcohol 120%, the other through windows burn image
[05:02] <bullgard4> the surgex No.
[05:03] <rpk> coz_, S4RY, I've loaded the disc again, I can copy the entire error message out to a text file  / pastebin if you'd like
[05:03] <rsthdn_> @thesurge which method u applied for installing?
[05:03] <thesurge> usb stick
[05:03] <coz_> rpk,  yeah let me see it at pastebin
[05:03] <thesurge> pendrive linux
[05:04] <S4RY> rpk: any usb stick nearby !
[05:04] <ActionParsnip> thesurge: get fully updated using a wired link, may help
[05:04] <S4RY> rpk: please do paste it.
[05:04] <thesurge> how do I fully update, I'm on a wired link now
[05:05] <ActionParsnip> thesurge: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade
[05:05] <ActionParsnip> updates fix a tonne of stuff
[05:07] <thesurge> its strange because it detects wifi connections, but when I connect the wifi bars just keep animating and it asks me my password over and over again
[05:07] <thesurge> (yes my password is correct)
[05:07] <coz_> :)
[05:07] <jbicha> kNightWolf: the elegant gnome PPA doesn't have a natty (11.04) version, you'll need to change your
[05:07] <pcgeek> question..does ubuntu have built-in belkin wireless drivers to connect to router?
[05:07] <coz_> theshadow,  darn I cant ask that now :)
[05:07] <jbicha> software sources to maverick instead
[05:08] <ActionParsnip> thesurge: is it wpa2 or somesuch?
[05:08] <kNightWolf> jbicha, so when I add it to res, just put maverick instead of natty?  is that what you mean?
[05:08] <ry> thesurge, i'm running ubuntu 10.10, even when i click disconnect after a fresh boot it tries to connect anther 3-4 times lol
[05:08] <jbicha> kNightWolf: what's res?
[05:09] <Captainkrtek> hey jbache
[05:09] <Captainkrtek> err
[05:09] <Captainkrtek> hey jbicha
[05:09] <coz_> rpk,   do you need 11.04 installed or do you just want to check out the live cd?
[05:09] <rpk> coz_, S4RY: pastebin: http://pastebin.com/GvRpFjBx
[05:09] <rpk> (pita to type that out)
[05:09] <jbicha> kNightWolf: in Software Center, go to Edit>Software Sources, switch to Other Software tab and change the distro line
[05:09] <kNightWolf> jbicha, repositories
[05:09] <jbicha> of the PPA to maverick instead of natty, then it should work
[05:09] <rpk> S4RY, I just found a usb stick I could try
[05:09] <coz_> rpk,   whoa
[05:10] <jbicha> Captainkrtek: good evening
[05:10] <rsthdn_> good morning
[05:10] <rpk> coz_ I'm just trying to install alongside my other OS's
[05:10] <jbicha> good morning Europe & wherever else :-)
[05:10] <coz_> rpk, try  burning the minimal install cd  on ly 19 megs  not a live cd
[05:10] <coz_> rpk,     https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:10] <ActionParsnip> jbicha: mornin
[05:11] <coz_> rpk,  not much to corrupt downloading or burning
[05:11]  * ActionParsnip thinks minimal rocks :)
[05:11] <kevinyoung> hi all
[05:11] <bullgard4> man update-apt-xapian-index: "DESCRIPTION: Rebuild the Apt Xapian Index." What file contains the »Apt Xapian Index«?
[05:12] <coz_> rpk,  you may end up appreciateing the minimal as much as ActionParsnip   and myself :)
[05:12]  * semitones [verb]s [noun] [verb]!
[05:12] <rpk> ok, give me a minute.  I'm running out of cds to try this with ... this is my 4th :/
[05:13] <coz_> rpk,  this should download and burn quickly although still burn at 1x if your app allows for it
[05:13] <thesurge> @ActionParsnip yes it is
[05:13] <rpk> coz_ I'm burning with windows again, thats all I have accessible at the moment
[05:14] <S4RY> rpk: nice try burnning the iso to that USB stick instead of wasting a bunch of CD's
[05:14] <coz_> rpk,   the big advantage ,, as I see it ,,other than the small size,, is that it download all "current" packages on the system...boots to a completely updated
[05:14] <thesurge> I've even tried reinstalling twice
[05:14] <rpk> Isn't there some page with a link to the md5 tool for windows?
[05:14] <S4RY> rpk: you Unetbootin windows version.
[05:14] <kNightWolf> jbicha, thanks, exactly what I needed
[05:14] <rpk> coz_ yeah, that sounds great, makes sense
[05:14] <coz_> rpk,   no need for the minimal   shhould be fine without md5sum
[05:14] <rpk> ok
[05:15] <jbicha> kNightWolf: cool, it's a common problem, I'm just trying to figure out how to make the solution more visible
[05:15] <coz_> rpk,   although I did hear of one freeware for windows  for md5sum I just dont recall the name
[05:15] <jbicha> I should post to my blog, then maybe Google will help people
[05:15] <TuffPoo> why would u wana upgrade to 11.04? im trying to justify if i need to or not
[05:15] <S4RY> !md5sum | rpk
[05:16] <coz_> TuffPoo,  no real reason actually unless you like the latest of things
[05:16] <TuffPoo> i heard a lot of peeps dont like unity
[05:16] <coz_> TuffPoo,   ubuntu 10.04  is the LTS  the next LTS is 12.04   you can just update directly to that when it releases
