[10:26] <Synergy999> Sadly Ubuntu is sucking... (sound card issues)...  it's time for me to try something else...  Fedora or OpenSuse? Which would have more drivers / hardware supported?
[10:26] <h-dee> gobbe: And what about those files which didn't copied? Should I skip them? And while restoring if it restored fstab, inittab, passwd etc...then won't it affect the new installation?
[10:26] <egsome> Synergy999, Ubuntu :)
[10:26] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Synergy999: don't sloap that low...
[10:26] <Us3r_Unfriendly> lol
[10:26] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Synergy999: and you think you'll have a better chance with those 2?
[10:27] <Synergy999> Ubuntu wont give me any sound, and nobody has any clues... I have no choice but to try other distros
[10:27] <bustedup277> So I was running Wubi trying to install Ubuntu on my computer when at the very end it crashed and said "Could not retrieve needed files" or something like that. Then it said for more info check out the log file. Why did it crash?
[10:27] <bustedup277> I am using an hp mini notebook windows 7 trying to install Ubuntu with Wubi
[10:27] <gobbe> h-dee: what files did got skipped?
[10:27] <Stevezau> Synergy999 what h/w?
[10:27] <egsome> Synergy999, You can try ask again, with details ..
[10:27] <Sarisir> hi all :)
[10:27] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: it mounted,now how to add it to the repository
[10:27] <Synergy999> my old message: Is anyone a wiz with fixing sound issues? Ubuntu sees my sound card but I still get no sound. Note this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/CnvAfTDU ... any suggestions would be appreciated
[10:27] <Synergy999> pastebin has all the info
[10:28] <h-dee> Folders such as private...or other system files. I even tar'd the complete folder with SU priveledges, and those still aren't present in the archive.
[10:28] <h-dee> gobbe: I still don't rememer all those files but there were many
[10:28] <Stevezau> im also having sound issues.. i eneded up having to post to alsa-users mailing list
[10:29] <gobbe> h-dee: how did you try to backup them?
[10:29] <blink> why I get this when i run tint2 in terminal??
[10:29] <h-dee> gobbe: First I tried to copy as it is. And then I tried again by creating a tar archive of the complete folder.
[10:29] <blink> tint2 : nb monitor 1, nb desktop 1
[10:29] <blink> tint2 : another systray is running
[10:30] <RaNa> ok how about this after install fog project i cant edit the tftpboot folder how to i be come the owner?
[10:30] <ToastedHip> good morning
[10:30] <Synergy999> hmm OpenSuse has a "wubi" type installer? Does Fedora have one now too
[10:30] <Synergy999> ?
[10:30] <RaNa> i want to take owner shop back
[10:31] <gobbe> h-dee: tra should be able to take whole folder, can you try again and give excact error message?
[10:31] <abhishekpathak> good morning all
[10:31] <ToastedHip> Ubuntu one is my personal cloud. how to turn disk space into memory? so i may run a simple server?
[10:31] <f11f12> when will the wxwidgets 2.8 library be replaced by version 2.9?
[10:31] <gobbe> Synergy999: you should ask it from #fedora, they might know
[10:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: didn't you say you a article on how to do it?  I'd try to edit it in: /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:32] <gobbe> ToastedHip: what do you mean running simple server?
[10:32] <h-dee> gobbe: i used the command "tar cvpzf backup.tgz /etc" with SU priveldges, and it did created the file nicely and cleanly, but as I said, some directories/files are missing such as "Private folder", so should I skip them if they are not that important from the backup point of view?
[10:32] <h-dee> gobbe
[10:32] <h-dee> gobbe: they must be system linked..right?
[10:33] <hid3> Good morning everyone. Is it possible to redirect boot progress and login console output to both, the monitor and serial (RS232) console?
[10:33] <gobbe> h-dee: well, without paste of actual error hard to say, tar cvf etc.tar /etc/* should be enough
[10:34] <h-dee> gobbe
[10:34] <gobbe> h-dee: there are files that doesn't need to be backed up, like mtab, because it's created on fly
[10:34] <h-dee> gobbe: let me try this one too...thanks!

[10:56] <rww> electronicmaji: Stop trolling, please.
[10:56] <ToastedHip> what is a Gentoo
[10:56] <scotty^> A Gentoo is a type of penguin
[10:56] <rww> electronicmaji: also, "your mom" jokes aren't appropriate for this channel.

[10:57] <arunkumar413> abhishekpathak: ok,solved.thanx

[10:57] <scotty^> See http://www.ccpo.odu.edu/Research/globec/main_cruises02/lmg0205/pod/POD11sept.htm
[10:58] <scotty^> I need some help with configure
[10:59] <scotty^> I'm getting No package 'fontconfig' found
[10:59] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ToastedHip: gentoo is a distro that when you install, after your done with the install...your greeted with a tty screen and then it's kernel compiling time.  basically that guy just wanted to look cool...truth gentoo isn't that hard after using Ubuntu for a few years and getting comfortable with a terminal
[10:59] <scotty^> Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.  Alternatively, you may set the environment variables FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS
[10:59] <scotty^> and FONTCONFIG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
[10:59] <scotty^> See the pkg-config man page for more details.
[11:01] <scotty^> I've tried exporting the PGK_CONFIG_PATH  environment variable to /usr/lib and /usr/lib/pkgconfig but I still get the same error.
[11:01] <scotty^> Can anyone help?
[11:03] <GrassMonkey> have problems with my graphics card. i did lspci and i can see the card. but its not in system > preferences > Monitors. i need some advice on what todo next
[11:04] <r00t4rd3d> whats the card
[11:04] <Ardethian> Is there a good program for Linux that allows me to rearrange my music library (retrieve song names, albums, cover arts etc) ?
[11:04] <scotty^> GrassMonkey: As far as I know, graphics cards do not show up in System > Preferences > Monitors, only monitors do.
[11:04] <hidnshadows> anyone need any general troubleshooting?
[11:05] <scotty^> what problems are you having?
[11:05] <GrassMonkey> r00t4rd3d, pro ,ptopm at24 i think. its a very old pci card from the 90s. there also stealth video and dimon mutimedia printed on the board as well
[11:05] <Ardethian> Is there a good program for Linux that allows me to rearrange my music library (retrieve song names, albums, cover arts etc) ?

[11:06] <scotty^> umm, no
[11:06] <yeats> Ardethian: take a look at this - it helped me: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/313562-weekend-project-spring-clean-your-music-library
[11:06] <scotty^> I did a search in my filesystem
[11:06] <Ardethian> thanks yeats :)
[11:06] <gibran> how can i do the effects here at my desktop? like the cube revolving thing?
[11:06] <hidnshadows> scotty^ try looking for it in the repos
[11:06] <scotty^> and tried setting the PGK_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
[11:06] <GrassMonkey> there is a few names on the card: pro motion aT25, Stealth Video 2500 PCI, Diamond Multimedia Systems
[11:06] <oCean> scotty^: use "apt-cache policy fontconfig" to see if the package "fontconfig" is actually installed
[11:06] <scotty^> to /usr/lib and to /usr/lib/pkgconfig
[11:07] <scotty^> but I still get the same error
[11:07] <oCean> scotty^: if not, do "sudo apt-get install fontconfig"
[11:07] <GrassMonkey> how can i configure the card or check if the drivers are installed or working
[11:07] <`marianne`> on my mac, i can take a playlist in itunes and burn it as an mp3 CD, with all the mp3s of that playlist copied to the CD (presumably with the playlist's "track" number prefixed to the filename)... is there any way to do that sort of thing in ubuntu?
[11:08] <scotty^> Synaptic shows fontconfig 2.8.0-2ubuntu1 as being installed by default.
[11:08] <tejuu> heyyyo
[11:08] <arunkumar413> abhishekpathak: the iso image is mounted plz help me to add it to repository
[11:08] <r00t4rd3d> GrassMonkey, what version of ubuntu ? 10.10 i386 ?
[11:08] <scotty^> GrassMonkey:  What make and model of card did you say it is?
[11:08] <tejuu> heyyo please explain the topic clearly
[11:09] <GrassMonkey> r00t4rd3d, 10.10 i386
[11:09] <yeats> `marianne`: in rhythmbox, you should be able to right click on a playlist and burn to CD...
[11:09] <hidnshadows> tejuu I'm not sure I understand
[11:09] <rww> tejuu: #ubuntu is for technical support with Ubuntu Linux

[11:12] <`marianne`> ew... i tried getting rhythmbox to load the playlist file and it's loading very slowly and in completely the wrong order, bunching tracks by the same artist all together
[11:12] <scotty^> GrassMonkey: It sounds like you have a Diamond Stealth card.  I think these had NVIDIA chips but I could be wrong - I'll check now.
[11:13] <yeats> `marianne`: you might try another player?
[11:13] <tejuu> interesting
[11:13] <yeats> !players | `marianne`
[11:13] <rww> ToastedHip: Unfortunately, it had to be removed from the LiveCD because it takes up too much space. You can still install it manually, though.
[11:13] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: terminal:   sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[11:13] <`marianne`> thanks yeats, i'll see if any of them can burn an mp3 CD
[11:13] <GrassMonkey> scotty^, thanks
[11:13] <r00t4rd3d> GrassMonkey, pm
[11:14] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: i mounted the iso file in/media/ubuuntustudio10.10. now how to add it to the repository
[11:14] <`marianne`> rhythmbox doesn't actually seem to have a burn disc option anyway
[11:14] <r00t4rd3d> GrassMonkey, http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36549907/xserver-xorg-video-apm_1.2.2-1_i386.deb
[11:14] <r00t4rd3d> install that and see what happens
[11:15] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: what exactly are you trying to install???
[11:15] <bustedup277> Good morning. Do you need to download the .iso for Ubuntu 10.04.1 to install it with Wubi or does Wubi install the .iso?
[11:15] <r00t4rd3d> wubi will download it
[11:15] <r00t4rd3d> you should use 10.10
[11:15] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: i'm not trying to install. i'm trying to add ubuntustudio repository which  is  in iso image format
[11:15] <bustedup277> But Wubi says that it's download 10.04, so I don't think I can change that.
[11:15] <hidnshadows> bustedup277 think twice about using wubi though, just make sure that it's really what you want
[11:15] <GrassMonkey> r00t4rd3d, what is it? the most important thing for me is understand the proccess on how to fix the problem rather. could you expline a lil about what this is and how you came to this conclusion
[11:16] <bustedup277> Why should I think twice?
[11:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: but why are you trying to add their repo?????
[11:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: all the packages they have, we have in are repos
[11:16] <r00t4rd3d> I googled the jumble of numbers about your video card +ubuntu
[11:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> *our
[11:16] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: i want to install the packages of ubuntu studio
[11:17] <bustedup277> Doesn't Wubi leave Windows 7 as your default OS and still leaves your files so nothing gets lost?
[11:17] <r00t4rd3d> and that got me here : http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man4/apm.4.html
[11:17] <hidnshadows> bustedup277 is there any specific reason that you're want to run it from inside the windows environment?
[11:17] <scotty^> OK, looks like most of the Diamond Stealth cards used S3 chips, although a few used other chips like Tseng Labs and Rendition Verite.
[11:17] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: why don't you just either install the packages you want or just install Ubuntu stucdio?
[11:17] <Us3r_Unfriendly> *studio   ...sorry my cat is in my face now
[11:17] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: my net connection is a dialup connection
[11:18] <rww> bustedup277: Yes, but running Ubuntu inside Wubi is more fragile than running it in its own space, because if anything goes wonky with either Ubuntu or Windows, Ubuntu breaks.
[11:18] <bustedup277> Hmm
[11:18] <hidnshadows> bustedup277 it's your choice really, just BACK YOUR STUFF UP
[11:18] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: and...?
[11:18] <bustedup277> Someone recommended it to my though, because whenever I tried to install it with a USB it would just freeze.
[11:18] <bustedup277> :/
[11:19] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: i already i have too many OS along side 10.10
[11:19] <bustedup277> Wait, so could Wubi with Ubuntu mess up my whole computer or just Ubuntu?
[11:19] <www> How do I prevent "Desktop" folder from regenerating?
[11:19] <r00t4rd3d> u dont you need it
[11:20] <hidnshadows> www why would you want to, jsut wondering
[11:20] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: your not making -any- sence to me
[11:20] <yeats> bustedup277: as long as you back up, all should be fine
[11:20] <yeats> bustedup277: 10.04 is fine, btw - it's supported until 2013
[11:20] <bustedup277> ok
[11:21] <adz_> is it youbuntu or oobuntu?
[11:21] <www> hidnshadows: I don't use desktop per se so the directory is useless (sorry for my wrighting - hven't got the time to config irssi).
[11:21] <hidnshadows> adz_ depends on your nationality, I always say oobuntu
[11:21] <Us3r_Unfriendly> arunkumar413: delete ubuntu and install ubuntu studio or just look in the repos:    sudo apt-cache serach ubuntustudio    <----way easier
[11:21] <ToastedHip> i say you-buntu
 theres a prompt after the python installed what do i type?
[11:22] <adz_> hidnshadows: what the native would pronounce it overrules. ;)
[11:22] <hidnshadows> www the desktop folder needs to exist. You can hide it I guess if it's annoying, and if you have OCD
[11:22] <bustedup277> adz_: Wikipedia says to pronounce it "oobuntu".
[11:22] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: y            for yes
[11:22] <adz_> bustedup277: that's what i thought. but the native sound is probably no available in englihs phonetics
[11:22] <www> hidnshadows: How do hide it? What is OCD?
[11:22] <arunkumar413> Us3r_Unfriendly: i just want to add the iso image of ubuntustudio to my repos. i mounted the iso image. just tell me how to add now. my net connection is very slow.i cant download the ubuntustudio packpages and i dont want to install ubuntu studio as a separate OS as i already have too many  OS along side ubuntu 10.10.
[11:22] <hidnshadows> adz_ and wikipedia is right 95.237% of the time. Axctually I read that on wikipedia
[11:22] <scotty^> GrassMonkey:  try the suggestion from r00t4rd3d and if that doesn't work try using Synaptic Package Manager to install the xserver-xorg-video-s3virge, xserver-xorg-video-s3 and xserver-xorg-video-savage packages
 already typed it, then theres a prompt
[11:23] <r00t4rd3d> ocd is obsessive compulsive disorder
[11:23] <hidnshadows> www not sure, and it's obsessive-compulsive disorder. Basically everything has to be the same way
[11:23] <ay_> hey
[11:23] <www> r00t4rd3d: thanks for expaining.
[11:23] <adz_> hidnshadows: too sad they have to appeal to the mass for money. sometimes i wish i were abdula bin abdula aziz and make the right choice of my money ;)
[11:23] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: for both ccsm and the extra packages?
[11:23] <ay_> why alsaconf command doesnt work in ubuntu
[11:23] <ay_> i want to configure alsa because there is no sound
[11:23] <gibran> yes
[11:24] <www> So does anyone knows how to "hide" the desktop folder?
[11:24] <r00t4rd3d> ay_, try running alsamixer in a term
[11:24] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: better yet just open up Ubuntu Software Center and search for compiz....add the extra and "ccsm"
 already typed i. Y for yes. then theres this prompt after processing triggers for python-central...
[11:24] <yeats> arunkumar413: see this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/4694/how-to-use-a-iso-image-as-a-cd-rom-repository
[11:24] <adz_> compiz is a waste. no flame. no. no. no. no. no
[11:24] <gibran> ohoh ok
[11:24] <ay_> r00t4rd3d,  everything looks good
[11:25] <ay_> r00t4rd3d,  but there is no sound
[11:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: compiz is not completely a waste...looks sweet on my rig
[11:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: and i'm all command line
[11:25] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: that means you are too young. ;)
[11:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> it's just for show
[11:25] <hidnshadows> BRB, if it's life-threatening or free pizza I give you permission to PM me
[11:25] <ay_> what is the matter
[11:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: lol sure I guess
[11:25] <ay_> this makes desktop beautiful
[11:26] <ay_> compiz makes desktop cool :D
[11:26] <scotty^> hidnshadows:  Any other ideas?
[11:26] <ChefBaggins> ay_, +1
[11:26] <scotty^> Synaptic shows fontconfig 2.8.0-2ubuntu1 as being installed by default.
[11:26] <adz_> cute, but useless
[11:27] <sjuxax> Hello. Can I apt-get install alternate-installer? I am using the desktop CD but VNC is going really, really slow for some reason and I would prefer to install over SSH
[11:27] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: but let me ask you this...if compiz is a complete waste of time...why are you using ubuntu?  I mean it's about using something unique in it's own way.  you could aways go arch or gentoo
[11:27] <yeats> sjuxax: you have to download the .iso file - no way to apt-get
[11:27] <Us3r_Unfriendly> and I have compiz in arch too
[11:27] <gobbe> sjuxax: you can get alternative installer iso and boot from it
[11:28] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: i am not using ubuntu, but definitely debian. i am running knoppix.
[11:28] <gobbe> sjuxax: i dont really get what vnc has to do with installer?=
[11:28] <sjuxax> I can't boot from the ISO because I am trying to install remotely, so I can't place the media.
[11:28] <gobbe> sjuxax: so how do you boot?
[11:28] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: debian is a good one too if you want to stay with apt-get
[11:28] <sjuxax> I suggest making the alternate installer an installable package, I don't see any point in not doing that
[11:28] <hidnshadows> scotty^ unfortunately no, make sure that you have it spelled correctly is all
[11:28] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: i guss i have this weird good chemistry with lone-man's distro of linux, i started out with slackware in 1995
[11:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: i guess than your a old man
[11:29] <sjuxax> It's already booted, I set up SSH and VNC on it, and want the install completed before I shut it down
[11:29] <scotty^> ok, thanks
[11:29] <gobbe> sjuxax: aah, that's not possible
[11:29] <hidnshadows> scotty^, sorry mate
[11:29] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: not old. but not young any more ;)
[11:29] <juniour> he y any command to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10
[11:30] <ay_> anyone experience with freebsd
[11:30] <ay_> juniour,  update-manager -d
[11:30] <gobbe> ay_: #freebsd
[11:30] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: i my early years, i run xdaliclock all the time with my desktop changes shape with seconds. ;)
[11:30] <ay_> juniour,  and you can see a warning new version is available
[11:30] <sjuxax> gobbe: Not possible to complete the install remotely? I don't really mean "totally completed", if there's your little welcome/config screen or finishing up afterward that's fine. I just want to get most of the install done remotely so I can be in and out when I get on-site tomorrow.
[11:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: well slackware was designed in '91 so that's old
[11:31] <gobbe> sjuxax: yes, but you cannot run alternative-installer from desktop
[11:31] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: i got my first pc in 95, so.
[11:31] <user24432> test
[11:31] <PalmBalm|Slide> mmm
[11:31] <user24432> ping
[11:32] <PalmBalm|Slide> my router is amikrotik and supports bootp in the dhcp server, all I have to do is provide a file
[11:32] <user24432> !ping
[11:32] <r00t4rd3d> xdaliclock is still available in the repos :D
[11:32] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: $2000 packard-bell pentium 75 with no monitor ;)
[11:32] <oCean> Us3r_Unfriendly: adz_ use the #ubuntu-offtopic for social chat please
[11:32] <PalmBalm|Slide> would be nice to have a linux pxe server running at all times
[11:32] <sjuxax> gobbe: Yes, that's unfortunate. It'd be much nicer if the alternate installer were included.
[11:32] <adz_> oCean: ok.
[11:32] <gobbe> sjuxax: well it's quite impossible because source media is totally different there
[11:32] <gobbe> sjuxax: if you compare it to "live" desktop
[11:33] <adz_> oCean: but this forum feels warmer. ;)
[11:33] <temal> hi
[11:33] <Us3r_Unfriendly> adz_: never mind him
[11:33] <Us3r_Unfriendly> he didn't read the whole thing adz_
[11:33] <r00t4rd3d> I was wondering who he was
[11:33] <adz_> Us3r_Unfriendly: no biggie, don't mention it
[11:33] <sjuxax> gobbe: Hmm, well, I'm not very familiar with the internals, but I don't see why a text installer and a "live" environment can't co-exist
[11:34] <sjuxax> The live environment isn't the thing installed afaik
[11:34] <galaxyAbstractor> hey
[11:34] <sjuxax> i.e., the environment with alterations made on the live session
[11:34] <juniour> ay_ when i am updating i am not getting sprrd y?
[11:34] <temal> i'm searching for a way to connect to a wlan without the nm-applet. want to use i3 as wm and got no toolbar ...
[11:34] <juniour> ay_ sr speed
[11:34] <gobbe> sjuxax: no, but alternative installer includes much more and it's impossible to fit them both on cd
[11:34] <galaxyAbstractor> Can I extend my ubuntu partition in ubuntu?
[11:34] <Us3r_Unfriendly> just message me instead...some ppl get real upset reading about other things in this chat that aren't diehard ubuntu conversation...I just wish these ppl were more helpful and not like those types of ops out there
[11:34] <temal> is there a tool for with cli-only?
[11:34] <gobbe> galaxyAbstractor: if it's lvm partition then you can
[11:35] <galaxyAbstractor> lvm?
[11:35] <Us3r_Unfriendly> temal: what are you looking for exactly?
[11:35] <oCean> Us3r_Unfriendly: just abide by the channel rules please
[11:35] <sjuxax> gobbe: Right, but you can include that actual installation program, right? Why does the curses installer take so much more space? Even if we install the normal live packages, the installation program should work OK.
[11:35] <sacarlson> sjuxax: maybe in the furture just make a remastersys of what you really want on your remote system and send them the iso for that to boot
[11:35] <temal> want to connect to wifi' from the shell
[11:35] <temal> without X
[11:36] <gobbe> sjuxax: because method is not same for graphical
[11:36] <juniour> hey when i am upgrading or downloading packeges from ubuntu i do not get the speed y ? any ans
[11:36] <Dr_Willis> temal:  you can use the carious ifconfg/ iwconfig tools.
[11:37] <temal> man, didn't thought about that. thanks a lot ;)
[11:37] <juniour>  hey when i am upgrading or downloading packeges from ubuntu i  do not get the speed y ? any ans
[11:37] <gobbe> galaxyAbstractor: does sudo lvs say anything?
[11:37] <gobbe> !patient | juniour
[11:38] <sjuxax> I don't really understand a good reason still, but OK, I can discuss that later I guess
[11:38] <abhishekpathak> juniour, add the servers closest to you geographically
[11:38] <yeats> juniour: you can change your default mirror in your software sources
[11:38] <juniour> how
 already have it. but how do i get it to work?
[11:38] <juniour> ?
[11:38] <juniour>  to do it
[11:38] <juniour>  pls explainn
[11:38] <juniour> ?
[11:38] <FloodBot3> juniour: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:38] <juniour> k
[11:38] <loser149> I want to buy an external 3TB hard drive and connect it via USB for backup purposes. does Ubuntu have similar problems accessing drives > 2 TB, as Windows does?
[11:39] <abhishekpathak> juniour, synaptic preferences
[11:39] <gobbe> loser149: no
[11:39] <sjuxax> I am installing on an older machine and the environment and installer is really slow -- should I use Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu? I needed the live environment but I may just take the alternate CD and install from that so that I can get something there.
[11:39] <galaxyAbstractor> gobbe, I'm not on ubuntu right now, I'm just asking because I have shrinked my windows partition because it was too large, and I want to extend that space to my backup partition, but the ubuntu partition is between the unallocated space and the backup partition
[11:39] <abhishekpathak> sjuxax,  you can tru xubuntu or lubuntu
[11:39] <sjuxax> but now I am done with the live part and just trying to install; this isn't working very well, however
[11:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: right click desktop and go to change background > visual effects and enable the extra box
[11:40] <sjuxax> Will GNOME run just as poorly from the disk? Not sure what to make of that. metacity crashes, etc.
[11:40] <abhishekpathak> sjuxax,  have patience , its a one time thing :)
[11:40] <juniour> abhishekpatha i am not getting u exp step by step pls
[11:40] <loser149> gobbe: how do you know? I thought it was more a hardware issue with HBAs and such?
[11:40] <sacarlson> sjuxax: there are total automated install methods that might make things run smother
[11:40] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  default ubuntu comes with gnome as the desktop environment
[11:40] <galaxyAbstractor> so I was thinking of making that unallocated space my backup partition, then remove the current backup partition and extend my ubuntu partition with that space, because I only got like 2GB left on the ubuntu partition
[11:40] <sjuxax> abhishekpathak: I don't even get as far as the actual installation.
[11:41] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: then go to system>preferences>compizconfig-setting-manager
[11:41] <abhishekpathak> there are other variations
[11:41] <pilulap> Hi all. I'm a new linux user (and using ubuntu). I want to install jmol which is a java applet but there are no informations about that on ubuntu forum. There is some command line to install a debian package from a new repo but it seems not to work with ubuntu: http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Debian
[11:41] <sjuxax> I just wish that alternate installer came on live cd. Then, when this was going slowly, I could have just canned the whole VNC thing and done it all over SSH, which is working fine
[11:41] <abhishekpathak> xubuntu uses xfce and lubuntu uses lxde which are faster and minimal resource hungry
[11:41] <Us3r_Unfriendly> gibran: or "ALT F2" and type in ccsm
[11:41] <asker> hi there
[11:42] <juniour> abhishekpatha i am using 10.04
[11:42] <abhishekpathak> sjuxax,  can you explain your problem in detail
[11:42] <sjuxax> but VNC has much heavier requirements, the pipes at both ends aren't very thick, and VNC seems to be really slow running out of the already-crammed RAM and CD.
[11:42] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  yes xubuntu and lubuntu also have the same version numbers
[11:42] <sacarlson> sjuxax: if your already able to ssh into it there are also methods to install from that point,  https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html
[11:42] <Us3r_Unfriendly> !it | Djrazer1988
[11:42] <sjuxax> My problem is that I can't do anything because there is no way to get a non-graphical installer on the Live CD.
[11:42] <juniour> abhishekpatha how to change
[11:42] <asker> anybody knows wich font is used by the xterm console? this font is like Sun console font :) i try to rememeber his name, but oops
[11:42] <galaxyAbstractor> currently the partitions are placed like this: http://pixomania.net/pics/5hkb6a.png
[11:42] <juniour> i am getting 15kb/s speed
[11:43] <juniour> not more than that
[11:43] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  you can search for xubuntu and download the live cd there
[11:43] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  i am afraid speed is another issue
[11:43] <galaxyAbstractor> or would it be easier to just remove the ubuntu partition, and fix the partitions correctly this time, then reinstall ubuntu?
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> asker:  you mean the 'console' or the 'xterm' program?
[11:43] <adz_> asker: been using 10x20: xterm -fn 10x20
[11:43] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  i am advising you regarding a lightweight and fast environment
[11:43] <adz_> asker: big, very big. ;)
[11:43] <juniour> but when i am doing youtube i am getting excellent speed
[11:43] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  speed depends on entirely different factors
[11:44] <abhishekpathak> sjuxax,  why do you want a non graphical installer?
[11:44] <juniour> y am i getting low speed?
[11:44] <abhishekpathak> juniour,  download speed will depend on the mirrors
[11:45] <rtoo> wubi forgot to configure grub for the ubuntu root.disk . I am familiar with grub booting kernel from a regular partition but what does the cofig supposed to look like for booting from a root.disk that is stored on NTFS?
[11:45] <abhishekpathak> if you are getting high speed means speed at your end is okay
[11:45] <juniour> with other sites it fine
[11:45] <abhishekpathak> the mirror is not giving good speed
[11:45] <abhishekpathak> yes
[11:45] <asker> xterm
[11:45] <abhishekpathak> try changing the mirror list
[11:45] <rtoo> what do I set for root, and how do I mount a loop device?
[11:45] <juniour> how to change that
[11:45] <loser149> I want to buy an external 3TB hard drive and connect it via USB for backup purposes. does Ubuntu have similar problems accessing drives > 2 TB, as Windows does?
[11:45] <asker> Dr_Willis, when i starts xterm i see this font )
[11:46] <mylisto> I have a logitech usb headset that is super quiet...
[11:46] <abhishekpathak> its in system, preferences, synaptic
[11:46] <rtoo> loser149: its mostly a filesystem limitation. linux uses ext filesystem usually
[11:46] <abhishekpathak> inside synaptic you click on preferences
[11:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: sudo mount -o loop
[11:46] <scotty^> pilulap: Does it have to be jmol?  The ubuntu repositories have rasmol, avogadro, pymol, and gdis.
[11:46] <gobbe> loser149: no, again
[11:46] <asker> whats code name of 10.10 ubuntu?
[11:46] <loser149> gobbe: you didn't answer my follow up question.
[11:46] <rtoo> Us3r_Unfriendly: in grub?
[11:46] <xD> loser149: No, EXT4 supports more than 2TB, check it in wikipedia
[11:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> asker: maverick
[11:46] <abhishekpathak> asker,  its maverick meerkat
[11:47] <asker> 10x
[11:47] <loser149> xD, rtoo: okay, thanks
[11:47] <Walex> loser149: that is a bad idea.
[11:47] <gobbe> loser149: i didn't have time yet, i know because i have several machines with over 2TB filesystems
[11:47] <xD> loser149: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4
[11:47] <loser149> Walex: what is?
[11:47] <mylisto> is there any terminal command that I can use to find out the model of my usb headset?
[11:48] <Walex> loser149: 3TBG drive and especially via USB, as there are likely to be lots of bugs, never mind the speed.
[11:48] <gobbe> mylisto: lshw might give it
[11:48] <xD> mylisto: 'lsusb' may get some info
[11:48] <rtoo> mylisto: lsmod -v
[11:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: no not in grub...have you looked at mounting /dev/loop0 to your grub?
[11:48] <loser149> Walex: bugs? Software bugs in Ubuntu?
[11:48] <abhishekpathak> mylisto,  try lspci --help
[11:48] <gobbe> loser149: and most of the 3TB externals are actually raid0 with 1.5T disks
[11:48] <Walex> loser149: in he firmware for the USB chipsets for example.
[11:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> mylisto: sudo lshw should work too i believe
[11:49] <Walex> loser149: be realistic -- don't expect everything to work just like that.
[11:49] <rtoo> Us3r_Unfriendly: I have no idea how this works in grub. what should I google? 'booting from loop0 in grub'?
[11:49] <scotty^> There is also Viewmol
[11:49] <loser149> Walex: well, actually it is an internal HDD, I just use it as an external without an ICY box, because of heating issues.
[11:49] <sacarlson> sjuxax: you can install just with the ssh access you now have with: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH
[11:49] <Walex> loser149: also consider the time to 'fsck' a 3TB hard drive. It is a problem with everything.
[11:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: are you trying to add a loop dev to your grub list?
[11:49] <scotty^> and xmakemol
[11:50] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: open up USC and look for "startup manager"
[11:50] <Walex> loser149: unless your PC box is very small and has poor airflow a hard disk should never have heat issues, they only draw 10-15W...
[11:50] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: gui for editing grub for what your trying to do
[11:50] <scotty^> and a few others
[11:50] <Walex> loser149: also note that you have to use a non-PCDOS partitioning scheme
[11:50] <mylisto> so I found the this number (046d:0a0c) for my logitech headset
[11:51] <sjuxax> thanks sacarlson, but I gave up and shut it down for now. The GUI installer said it was erasing a disk though I never asked it too. It was stalled with kernel oopses in the details box, luckily it looks like the other content on that disk is intact
[11:51] <sjuxax> *to
[11:51] <mylisto> isn't there a page that shows all of those numbers?
[11:51] <sacarlson> sjuxax: ok
[11:52] <loser149> Walex: I meant, I'm looking for an external HDD for backup, but I buy internal HDDs instead and just use them as externals. they don't heat up as much if they don't have a box around them :)
[11:52] <loser149> Walex: I have had bad experiences with icy boxes.
[11:53] <rtoo> Us3r_Unfriendly: the windows ubuntu installer installed ubunto to a root.disk file to the windows partition, added an entry to NTLDR, added grub but forgot to configure grub for booting the root disk
[11:53] <kuttans> hello everybody,
[11:53] <zmitya> hi... how do I disable that stupid "auto dhcp" connection in the network-manager ?
[11:53] <Israfel> I'm having an issue setting a custom icon for a launcher. I moved it to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps and changed the owner to root, but that still didn't fix it.. It's a 48x48 PNG icon.. is there something I'm missing?
[11:54] <loser149> Walex: is there any other solution you'd recommend if one needs at least 3 TB of space?
[11:54] <kuttans> im having a samsung corby pro.  Was using it for 3g net connection.  Ubuntu initially see it as a USB image interface and after some time identify it as a modem, but this is getting intermittant
[11:54] <kleopatra> Hi, how can i find out what opengl version will be supported by my system?
[11:54] <sacarlson> zmitya: got to network-manager and select manual
[11:54] <zmitya> sacarlson: thx
[11:55] <sacarlson> zmitya: or you can do as I do and just stop it
[11:55] <kuttans> and after once disconnected i need to reconnect the mobile physically with usb.  Anyone having a workaround to make it identify as a modem
[11:55] <scotty^> mylisto: It seems to be a Logitech, ClearChat Comfort USB headset
[11:55] <Walex> loser149: 3TB are not for casual users and for reliable applications one would need careful testing and perhaps wait 6m-1y for all the issues to be found and sorted out.
[11:55] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rtoo: I think this would be easier:          http://everyjoe.com/technology/adding-other-operating-systems-to-grub/?utm_source=everyjoe&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=b5hubs_migration
[11:55] <ubuntu-tian> i need help,who can help me?
[11:55] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuntu-tian: depends on your question
[11:55] <mylisto> thanks scotty6:
[11:55] <gobbe> ubuntu-tian: ask the question first
[11:55] <kuttans> ask the question first ubuntu-tian....
[11:55] <mylisto> er
[11:55] <mylisto> thanks scotty^:
[11:56] <GrassMonkey> j
[11:56] <Walex> loser149: if you are are a sysadm and are willing to do testing I would consider eSATA (never USB), GPT partitions and JFS or XFS filesystems
[11:56] <Israfel> it's a cool little icon for chrome, but I can't set the launcher to use this icon: http://www.softicons.com/download/internet-icons/google-chrome-icons-by-ever/png/48/Google%20Black.png
[11:56] <ubuntu-tian> why my linux kerinel start up and stay "booting the kernel"
[11:56] <kuttans> mobile phone as 3g modem >> how to modprobe
[11:57] <adz_> ubuntu-tian: boottrapper booting the kernel
[11:57] <Israfel> Anybody able to help?
[11:57] <kuttans> hmmm ubuntu-tian google from grub options and make it more verbose
[11:57] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuntu-tian: maybe you should update the system
[11:57] <ubuntu-tian> i use u-boot boot my embed
[11:57] <kuttans> ubuntu-tian: by that way you can give the folks in room more options and specifics
[11:58] <adz_> it's good to see linux is getting ever more pupular with ubuntu. this is good.
[11:58] <kuttans> then u must be looking for u-boot options to make it verbose.  bcoz the kernel may stop at booting for number of reasons
[11:58] <adz_> but ubuntu is desktop oriented, which exactly the market linux needs.
[11:58] <adz_> bye
[11:58] <grelle> how come 'cfdisk' doesn't recognize my main ext4 partition or the swap partition? The disk shows up as "Free Space"
[11:59] <kuttans> grelle check with gparted
[11:59] <abhishekpathak> ubuntu-tian,  what is your roblem?
[11:59] <fudynz> hi all
[11:59] <grelle> kuttans: I'm running Ubuntu Server
[11:59] <grelle> kuttans: so no graphical interface right now
[12:00] <Dr_Willis> grelle:  if you just partioned the disk. itz possible itz still using the old partition table. untill you reboot.
[12:00] <GrassMonkey> when i run the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" nothing happends. the command get run with no return errors and i am back in the terminal waiting for another commanded to be types in. any ideas? i using 10.10
[12:00] <ubuntu-tian> my s3c2410 board can't start up when i use linux 2.6.35,
[12:00] <gobbe> grelle: what about fdisk?
[12:00] <fudynz> i just install ubuntu 10.10 in my laptop, its don't detect wifi. :-(
[12:00] <kuttans> oh ok.....try fdisk with switches...probably
[12:00] <grelle> I've installed ubuntu on it. And It's currently mounted on /
[12:00] <grelle> fdisk works
[12:00] <grelle> i.e. 'fdisk -l /dev/sda' outputs the correct partition tables
[12:01] <gobbe> grelle: and cfdisk doesn't?
[12:01] <grelle> but how come cfdisk doesn't??
[12:01] <kuttans> fudynz: wats the make of the laptop...basically ubuntu automatically identify the wifi interfaces, but broadcom is having some legacy drivers i guess
[12:01] <Us3r_Unfriendly> fudynz: install "Ndisgtk" from USC
[12:01] <grelle> gobbe: correct
[12:01] <mylisto> for some reason the sound coming threw my logitech headset is super quiet - any ideas?
[12:01] <fudynz> kuttans: Acer Nplify
[12:02] <fudynz> us3r_Unfriendly: where i can get it?
[12:02] <kuttans> try to do a lsusb fudynz and chek out whether the hardware was identified
[12:02] <kuttans> fudynz: go to the system log files and check for the wifi interface detection , you will get some hints there
[12:02] <fudynz> kuttans: how?
[12:02] <abhishekpathak> grelle,  are you sure you have them partitioned and formatted
[12:02] <kuttans> type lsusb in the command line fudynz
[12:02] <Guest31418> i just bought the fluendo dvd package... do i need to buy it again if i reinstall?
[12:03] <kuttans> or there is tha log file viewer in the system administration option
[12:03] <fudynz> kuttans: in the terminal?
[12:03] <kuttans> yeah
[12:03] <grelle> abhishekpathak: Yes. Ubuntu Server is installed on the device. It is mounted as the root filesystem
[12:03] <kuttans> hey anyone mobile as a 3g modem
[12:04] <grelle> abhishekpathak: mount outputs: /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[12:04] <Israfel> Anyone know why custom icons don't work?
[12:04] <grelle> abhishekpathak: fdisk -l /dev/sda outputs: /dev/sda1   *           1       18663   149903360   83  Linux
[12:04] <grelle> abhishekpathak: but 'cfdisk' lists the device as Free Space
[12:04] <mylisto> for some reason the sound coming threw my logitech headset is super quiet - any ideas?
[12:05] <Guest31418> what happens to the software that i buy in the software center? id it in my ubuntu one account where i can reinstall it with out having to buy it again?
[12:05] <gobbe> Israfel: don't work how?
[12:05] <abhishekpathak> mylisto, on the terminal write sudo alsaconfig
[12:05] <kuttans> grelle: i think cfdisk i having a problem if the disk is in use
[12:05] <mattyh88> hi, i'm using ubuntu server Ed. 10.10. and would like to use third level keys. how can i configure these in the server edition? thx.
[12:05] <Israfel> gobbe, I downloaded a 48x48 icon and selected it from the launcher properties, but it disappears and never shows it.
[12:05] <fudynz> us3r_unfriendly: where i can do it?
[12:06] <mylisto> abhishekpathak: command not found
[12:06] <gobbe> mattyh88: 3rd level keys?
[12:06] <abhishekpathak> mylisto, sorry that was alsaconf
[12:06] <Israfel> gobbe, This icon: http://www.softicons.com/download/internet-icons/google-chrome-icons-by-ever/png/48/Google%20Black.png
[12:06] <mattyh88> gobbe: yeh .. with the right alt button (Alt Gr)
[12:06] <mylisto> abhishekpathak: command not found
[12:06] <gobbe> mattyh88: what is 3rd level key
[12:07] <grelle> kuttans: Allright. I don't know if I can trust it for my other drives now, though... :-)
[12:07] <Israfel> gobbe, I have 2 launchers for Chromium, one regular, one incognito, the new launcher works, but I wanted a different icon so i could tell the two apart.
[12:07] <mattyh88> gobbe: in belgium we have keys on our keyboard with 3 diff. characters on it
[12:07] <zosky> hi yall
[12:07] <kuttans> grelle: i will check the man page and come back to you
[12:07] <fudynz> kuttans: i just done it in the terminal, what next?
[12:07] <gobbe> mattyh88: aah, you mean keybaord key :)
[12:07] <mattyh88> gobbe: yes indeed haha :p
[12:07] <mylisto> abhishekpathak: what package do I have to install to be able to run alsaconfg
[12:07] <gobbe> mattyh88: have you selected correct keyboard during setup?
[12:08] <mattyh88> yes, the belgian azerty keyboard :)
[12:08] <mattyh88> gobbe: works like a charm except for the 3rd level
[12:08] <gobbe> Israfel: how did you try install icon?
[12:08] <grelle> kuttans: I did browse through the man page. couldn't find anything about partition tables not accessible on mounted devices
[12:08] <shaggy2> hey got a question, might be the wrong place to ask, but I have password protect the cgi-bin derectory using .htaccess, I have 2 domains pointing to it, I would like to be able to set it so if the user on www.domain.com logged in via www.domain.net he would be rejected, but if he logged in via www.domain.com he would be allowed. is that posible using .htaaccess
[12:08] <jufer>     return _setlocale(category, locale)
[12:08] <jufer> locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
[12:09] <abhishekpathak> just go to terminal and type sudo alsaconf
[12:09] <zosky> using the wiki i've figured out how to map my mouse buttons currently (xinput set-button-map 10 1 2 0 3 8 9 4 5) ... how do i make this permanent. "set-button-map 10 1 2 0 3 8 9 4 5" in ~/.xinput (doesn't sound right)?
[12:09] <kuttans> it talks about geometry and if it not able to read that because of some reasons it may not show you the correct data .
[12:09] <abhishekpathak> see where there gets you and come back
[12:09] <Israfel> gobbe, install icon? I moved it to /usr/shared/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps and changed the group and owner to root. It should be like every other icon in that folder now.
[12:09] <kuttans> there is a switch to avoid it, but that wont read it at all
[12:09] <gobbe> Israfel: yep. and then?
[12:09] <gobbe> Israfel: did you select it for app?
[12:09] <grelle> kuttans: By the way. 'parted' also works as expected
[12:09] <mylisto> I did
[12:09] <mylisto> it said command not found
[12:10] <Israfel> gobbe, i opened the Launcher Properties and browsed to the icon in the list.
[12:10] <kuttans> how to do a modprobe 3g gsm mobile modem usb connected
[12:10] <kuttans> well then settle for it unless you have any compelling reason to have a curses based app
[12:10] <Israfel> gobbe, As soon as I open the icon, it reverts back to the springboard icon.
[12:10] <abhishekpathak> ohzie, you typed "alsaconf" didn't you?
[12:10] <gobbe> Israfel: so you select it by open, and it reverts?
[12:11] <Israfel> gobbe, Does it have to have some special coding behind the .png file?
[12:11] <Israfel> gobbe, As if I never selected it.
[12:11] <mylisto> I typed sudo alsaconf
[12:12] <abhishekpathak> okay..let me check..actually i am on arch
[12:12] <gobbe> Israfel: hmmh. let my try
[12:12] <scotty^> Israfel: I've noticed when installing some packages that near the end it says something about processing/updating triggers for hicolor-icon-theme.  I'm not sure how to launch that manually though.
[12:12] <blink> http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs29/f/2008/167/a/e/15_06_2008_by_HannaPai.png
[12:13] <blink> how can i install the "Run Program" thing on my desktop?
[12:13] <mrsemaine> mrsemaine
[12:13] <grelle> kuttans: wait a second. This command lists the partition as free space: "cfdisk /dev/sda1". But the command "cfidsk /dev/sda" says: FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 1: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder
[12:13] <scotty^> blink:  Press Alt-F2
[12:13] <abhishekpathak> mylisto,  what version of ubuntu you are using?
[12:13] <fudynz> us3r_unfriendly: wht is USC?
[12:13] <kuttans> no grelle you dont do a fdisk on /dev/sda1
[12:13] <bluenemo> how can i check if my ubuntu version is 32 or 64 bit?
[12:13] <grelle> kuttans: so I was wrong before when I said the cfdisk lists the whole device as free space.
[12:14] <kuttans> you always do fdisk on the whole hard disk not on the partition
[12:14] <firefly> hello everyone
[12:14] <grelle> kuttans: right. i mistyped
 how do i change my desktop to default again?
[12:14] <blink> I have tint2 installed. is there some kind of configurations to mount it on desktop in a similar way to conky?
[12:14] <grelle> kuttans: But something is still weird
[12:15] <prince12> hello all how can i download ubuntu 10.10 because it is very big in size
[12:15] <scotty^> bluenemo:  Just open a terminal and type uname -srm
[12:15] <shaggy2> hey got a question, might be the wrong place to ask, but I have password protect the cgi-bin derectory using .htaccess, I have 2 domains pointing to it, I would like to be able to set it so if the user on www.domain.com logged in via www.domain.net he would be rejected, but if he logged in via www.domain.com he would be allowed. is that posible using .htaaccess
[12:15] <grelle> kuttans: the "partition ends in the final cylinder" error seems strange. is that a legacy thing?
[12:15] <gibran> got it
[12:15] <prince12> my cuurent operating system is windows xp
[12:15] <bluenemo> scotty^, thank
[12:16] <wyclif> prince12: so sorry =(
[12:16] <fudynz> what is USC?
[12:16] <kuttans> you mean to say when you use cfdisk /dev/sda it gives this error?
[12:16] <mylisto> abhishekpathak: lucid
[12:16] <xD> !download | prince12
[12:17] <grelle> kuttans: right. 'cfdisk /dev/sda' gives the FATAL ERROR
[12:17] <grelle> kuttans: but 'fdisk -l /dev/sda' outputs the correct partition table
[12:17] <mylisto> this is driving me nuts
[12:17] <abhishekpathak> mylisto,  okay give me a second to google

[12:18] <luciano> salve, da 6 mesi utilizzo ubuntu con soddisfazione, ma ora non riesco più a spegnere il computer come posso rimediare?
[12:18] <kuttans> ok that means the geometry needed by cfdisk is not available correctly

[12:18] <kuttans> so its better to forget and use parted or fdisk

[12:20] <bustedup277>  Is there a difference between Ubuntu Netbook and Ubuntu Desktop?
[12:21] <rumpe2> bustedup277, yes ... the desktop
[12:21] <kuttans> bustedup277 : yes
[12:21] <bustedup277> :/
[12:21] <bustedup277> What is the difference?
[12:21] <bustedup277> Can you install Ubuntu Desktop on a netbook?
[12:21] <kuttans> simply you can do but you gonna use a lotta resources without any reason
[12:21] <scotty^> mylisto: then look for non-mic values that are at a low or 0 %
[12:21] <rumpe2> bustedup277, if your netbook don't have 3D-acceleration, it's the same
[12:22] <abhishekpathak> mylisto,  check if sudo alsamixer works
[12:22] <bustedup277> Alright.
[12:22] <prince12>  thank you do you like windows you all?
[12:22] <wyclif> bustedup277: Ubuntu Netbook has the new Unity interface, which makes netbook Ubuntu more friendly from the UI perspective

[12:32] <ubuntu-visitor5> can anybody help me restore grub from a live cd?
[12:33] <mylisto> that didn't do anything
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> kasian:  boot live cd,.. mount installed system -> command similer to -->
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/InstalledSystemMointPoint  /dev/sda --recheck

[12:34] <Eryn_1983_FL> is it bad when there are hundreds of  inodes that are the  wrong number?
[12:34] <Eryn_1983_FL> i am running fsck  on one of my drives..
[12:35] <Eryn_1983_FL> it  says its  fixing it but is that the truth can it do that ?
[12:35] <GrassMonkey> any ideas why this command just returns me right back to the terminal with no error. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org"
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> GrassMonkey:  thats the old obsolete way to reconfigure  the xorg.conf i belive
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> !fixres
[12:36] <GrassMonkey> Dr_Willis, i see. i didnt know that. how should i do it on 10.10
[12:36] <al_nz1> if I want to make things (SSH)  more secure and use certificates, the only drawback I can see is that it will limit which computers I can access the remote system from. Is there a way around this? Can you store the certificate on a usb key for use from any PC?
[12:37] <stealthc> anybody have any thoughts how cp -p can fail to copy something from a terminal?
[12:37] <Rypervenche> Ever since upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 my gnome-panel doesn't start up correctly about 90% of the time. I always have to "killall gnome-panel" in order to see it properly. Is there anyway I can fix it so it starts up correctly each time?
[12:37] <gobbe> stealthc: what kind of error do you get?
[12:37] <RippleEffect> Hi
[12:37] <GrassMonkey> i am having problems with my graphics card to being found by x11. how should i reconfig it?
[12:38] <RippleEffect> I am using an LVM and the system says that my root partition is full.  I can't do anything anymore. Not even mount other drives.
[12:38] <RippleEffect> Who can help?
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> kasian:  keep it in the channel.. and the command you are using is not the same as the one im using. I mount the location. and give the /dev/XX type name
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> kasian: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/MountYoutDriveHeret  /dev/sda --recheck
[12:39] <norbert_> hi Ubuntu fans
[12:39] <norbert_> I'm trying to create a virtual HD under VirtualBox, and it gets stuck at 0% :(
[12:40] <norbert_> tried running it as root
[12:40] <norbert_> and changing the directory where the image would be stored
[12:40] <norbert_> but nothing works: 0% done, and if I look at the image, it remains 0 bytes
[12:40] <norbert_> :((
[12:40] <norbert_> help? :/
[12:40] <azizLIGHTS> hi is there any software to perform actions like clicking?
[12:40] <azizLIGHTS> like macros
[12:40] <norbert_> yes, azizLIGHTS
[12:40] <norbert_> xdotool
[12:40] <azizLIGHTS> click at x,y position at 10pm
[12:40] <norbert_> works awesomely
[12:41] <azizLIGHTS> is it gui based or?
[12:41] <norbert_> console
[12:41] <norbert_> in bash, first do: windowid=`xdotool search --title "..."`
[12:41] <norbert_> where ... is the title of the window you want to perform actions on
[12:41] <norbert_> then do: xdotool windowactivate $windowid
[12:41] <norbert_> and then, for example: xdotool key space
[12:41]  * azizLIGHTS takes notes
[12:41] <norbert_> that'll send a space to that window with title ...
[12:42] <norbert_> it can do mouse actions, keyboard actions, lots of cool stuff
[12:42] <Israfel> gobbe, No luck? I haven't found anything in a while.
[12:42] <Rypervenche> Ever since upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 my gnome-panel doesn't start up correctly about 90% of the time. I always have to "killall gnome-panel" in order to see it properly. Is there anyway I can fix it so it starts up correctly each time?
[12:42] <langvann> norbert_: Try running virtualbox from a console and see if you get any errors while creating the vHD
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> Rypervenche:  you could reset the panel to defaults
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> !resetpanel
[12:42] <norbert_> langvann: will do
[12:43] <Rypervenche> Dr_Willis: What exactly does that do? Will I have to reset all of the applications?
[12:43] <spicemaster> how can i install ubuntu in usb flash drive sir ?
[12:43] <norbert_> langvann: no errors showing up, too bad...
[12:44] <azizLIGHTS> thanks norbert_ gonna experiment with it now
[12:44] <spicemaster> what is bug ?
[12:44] <norbert_> azizLIGHTS: have fun
[12:44] <spicemaster> !bug
[12:45] <spicemaster> norbert_, how can i install ubuntu from Pen Drive ?
[12:46] <robert__> siema :)
[12:46] <langvann> norbert_: Try something like virtualbox -vvv or something, see if virtualbox can be run with arguments, and then put on high loglevel so that it will printout errors to you.

[12:47] <gobbe> Israfel: no. the icon you gave is not working but i have several others that are
[12:47] <x42> hi there ... i'm looking for a good twitter client on ubunto ... recommendatiosn?
[12:48] <gralichjunior_> d
[12:48] <Israfel> gobbe, I wonder why that icon doesn't work? maybe it shows as a PNG file, but not the right kind of PNG? transparency, etc.. But that's not the only icon i've tried.
[12:49] <gobbe> Israfel: hmmh, and sorry. It's working
[12:49] <gobbe> Israfel: try to add it from your home folder
[12:49] <gobbe> Israfel: just browse there and select it, like that i was able to use it
[12:50] <Israfel> what the heck? Just as you said that.... And withough doing anything, it showed up on it's own... After an hour of trying to get it working...
[12:51] <Rypervenche> Dr_Willis: I reset my panel and my theme was changed. Is that normal?
[12:52] <Israfel> gobbe, Maybe gtm needed a refresh? it's odd though, because the Launcher properties never showed the icon as being selected, using any other icon worked though.
[12:53] <Israfel> Rypervenche, Are you running any type of window decorator? Sometimes when you reset it doesn't get loaded.
[12:53] <diecastarts> Hailz all again .. i have my system all going the way i want but one thing is driving me up the wall //  (Everything is good but the monitor keeps going to sleep even thou I have turn off all settings and no screen saver// the srceensavers is good never shows up .. but it keep putting my monitor to sleep// is there a backend program or something that maybe doing this to me???? )
[12:54] <h-dee> Hi...I just reinstalled Ubuntu, and restored my configs, packages etc. (Thanks to the brilliant communty), and now I'm having problem with LAMP. How can I repair it? Especially MySQL.
[12:54] <Rypervenche> I guess I'll try restarting my computer.

[12:55] <silentz0r> Hello, I installed ubuntu 10.10 on my netbook, and then installed backtrack on a different partition, and now backtrack's grub seems to have overwritten ubuntu's grub2, and grub legacy boots up each time I open my laptop (I have a different /boot/grub on each partition). How can I use the default grub2 from my ubuntu partition?
[12:55] <diecastarts> yeah
[12:55] <diecastarts> he rebooting already
[12:55] <Israfel> diecastarts, He could have just alt-F2 and used gtk-window-decorator --replace
[12:56] <gobbe> silentz0r: boot to ubuntu and re-install grub
[12:56] <gobbe> !grub2 | silentz0r
[12:56] <silentz0r> I cannot boot to ubuntu

[12:57] <Ctacok> бля
[12:57] <silentz0r> gobbe: already tried several stuff, such as reinstalling grub, upgrading to grub2

[12:57] <diecastarts> but ask again here sorry .. my monitor keeps sleeping on me .. I have check all gui style settings and cannot get it to stop ..
[12:58] <gobbe> h-dee: mysql might be using default password
[12:58] <silentz0r> gobbe: I am reading, just trying to make sure you understood what my problem was :)
[12:58] <gobbe> h-dee: did you backup your mysql databases?
[12:58] <diecastarts> is there a backend program that maybe doing it??
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> diecastarts:  power saveing settings, dpms
[12:59] <h-dee> gobbe: I restored home folder and packages...nothing else. I haven't restores etc yet because everything was looking the same as it was before. What's the default password?

[13:04] <bustedup277> Hello again, on Ubuntu I need to know how to connect to the internet...
[13:05] <campbellgolf> mr_shred  what's your question?
[13:05] <gobbe> bustedup277: how do you connect to internet?
[13:05] <mr_shed> god I hate Rhythmbox
[13:05] <diecastarts> oh i think i have an idea why this is not working .. i have something called vbetool install .. it says that it deal with the video card resuming and sleeping ectect ,,,
[13:06] <bustedup277> gobbe: Yeah, because whenever I try to connect to my networks, they are not there. I know I have a router in my room, and there are lots of routers in this apartament. This my first time using Ubuntu, btw.
[13:06] <esc_phr34k> how do i check in ubuntu if i have software installed
[13:06] <gobbe> bustedup277:so are you using wlan or what?
[13:06] <bustedup277> Umm it's a router
[13:06] <bustedup277> ._.
[13:06] <bustedup277> Wireless
[13:06] <diecastarts> hard wired?
[13:07] <diecastarts> k
[13:07] <gobbe> bustedup277: ok, so you are accessing it wireless?
[13:07] <diecastarts> wlan
[13:07] <bustedup277> Trying to. I think I do need to install some drivers, but when I check it says there are no Proprietary Drivers.
[13:07] <esc_phr34k> how do i check in ubuntu if i have software installed
[13:07] <diecastarts> there normally none
[13:07] <gobbe> bustedup277: what is model and make of your wlan-card in computer?
[13:08] <bustedup277> I don't know...
[13:08] <bustedup277> I'm connected to the internet right now on Windows on the same computer, so there is nothing wrong with my internet.
[13:08] <mr_shed> campbellgolf, basically I've been spending time learning to use LAMP (which is why I installed Ubuntu in the first place) and I really am surprised at how much progress I've made and how incredibly simple a lot of it is. My friend though, has Visual Studio on his laptop and the things it can do really spun my head .. very very powerful (though I don't understand the "<asp:control .. />" syntax yet. I was wondering if there is still a place f
[13:08] <mr_shed> or simple html-php-mysql-javascript work in the professional web dev world?
[13:08] <mongy> bustedup277, might already be loaded...checked network manager?
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> bustedup277:  using windows hardweare manager tools determine what kind of network card you have.
[13:08] <bustedup277> What?
[13:09] <esc_phr34k> how do i check in ubuntu if i have software installed
[13:09] <andeeeuk> does anyone know how to install moovida as it will not install as it cant install moovida bad/ugly
[13:09] <bustedup277> mongy: What are you talking about?
[13:09]  * Mkaysi is back (gone 00:35:17)
[13:09] <andeeeuk> ?
[13:09] <diecastarts> decive mananger
[13:09] <gobbe> !repeat | esc_phr34k
[13:09] <diecastarts> device manager bustedup277 found out what card you have
[13:09] <campbellgolf> mr_shred your message truncated...
[13:09] <Dr_Willis> andeeeuk:  try a sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, and try again.
[13:10] <h-dee> gobbe: You were right. The password was not set. I reset it and mysql worked, but phpmyadmin still showing up error...now related to PHP. I'm checking into that.
[13:10] <mr_shed> oops
[13:10] <esc_phr34k> gobbe,  sorry
[13:10] <bustedup277> Ok I'm in Device Manager..
[13:10] <diecastarts> netowrk apt___ors
[13:10] <diecastarts> network
[13:11] <bustedup277> ok
[13:11] <bustedup277> I got this:
[13:11] <diecastarts> and it will have some name with waln or wireless
[13:11] <diecastarts> damn i typing bad today
[13:11] <diecastarts> sorry all
[13:11] <bustedup277> Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n
[13:11] <mr_shed> campbellgolf, without the waffle: "given .NET 3.5/4 and the rise of MVC, do I still have a job out there? - I do php-mysql-javascript-"ajax"-html but none of that funky MVC setup".
[13:11] <bustedup277> Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller
[13:11] <bustedup277> That's it.
[13:11] <gobbe> bustedup277: you might need to use wired conenction to get drivers
[13:11] <www32ndy> hi
[13:12] <diecastarts> k yeah so it the broadcom one
[13:12] <gobbe> bustedup277: broadcom needs 3rd party drivers, which can be installed with Additional Drivers
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> bustedup277:  you proberly should connect via wire, and update/upgrade the system.  then figure out what drivers are needed. its proberly the 'sta' drivers . but broadcom cards can be weird.
[13:12] <bustedup277> umm ok?
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> bustedup277:  its posssible once you update/upgrade - that the Addational Drivers tool - may show the proper drivers
[13:13] <mr_shed> also, anyone know how to get Rhythmbox to remember locations and passwords for music folders in windows (Vista) shares.
[13:13] <diecastarts> yeah be the easiest way bustedup277
[13:13] <diecastarts> just hardwire to the router and connect on LAN
[13:13] <bustedup277> DR_Willis and anyone else: Can I download the drivers from Windows?
[13:14] <diecastarts> update then play with wireless
[13:14] <bustedup277> :|
[13:14] <Arrazador> hay
[13:14] <bustedup277> Can I just download the drivers I need from Windows and not Ubuntu?
[13:14] <Arrazador> alguem fala portugues
[13:14] <diecastarts> you could download to window if you were sure what drivers to download
[13:14] <Arrazador> ¶;x~~
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> andeeeuk:  all i can say is i got moovidia installed here.. but i instlled it some time back.
[13:14] <bustedup277> Well how do i figure out which drivers I need to download?
[13:15] <diecastarts> check websites
[13:15] <bustedup277> kk
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> andeeeuk:  it could be some updated broke the package.. if its just 'reccomended' it should still install.
[13:15] <diecastarts> or do what gobbe was saying
[13:16] <andeeeuk> Dr_Willis: yeah it wont install at all
[13:16] <andeeeuk> think it is because of the dependancy issues
[13:16] <andeeeuk> but it will not look to resolve them
[13:17] <blup> i'm having serious issues with java (i used to have openjdk, now sun's)... as soon as i launch a .jar file, the computer crashes and i have to do a hard reboot (funny colors and flashing checkerboard patterns)
[13:18] <blup> my old laptop (ubuntu 9) did so, and now my new one (ubuntu 10.10) is doing the same
[13:19] <gobbe> blup: what is the .jar you are launching or does this happen with every .jar?
[13:19] <nightcrow_> hiya, how can i update /etc/hostname without rebooting the machine?
[13:19] <campbellgolf> mr_shred if you are targeting the .NET framework, I highly recommend you learn C#, it has larger project base and more advanced development opportunities than VB, though you can use both languages against nearly all the same .NET framework.  do you have a .NET project?  If you still require development of .NET on LNX, there is always mono... but caution the lack of full support.  the only opensource combo that I have d
[13:19] <campbellgolf> one is C#/mySQL and C# SQLite
[13:20] <Arrazador> alguem fala portugues
[13:20] <blup> gobbe: i've tried launching the .jar (minecraft) from within linux and within vmware running windows xp and i get the same results... when i run a java application online it bugs less, but it still behaves weird (if i change tabs, the java app is still there)
[13:21] <rumpe2> nightcrow, sudo service hostname restart (possibly)
[13:21] <nightcrow_> rumpe2: thats not it
[13:21] <nightcrow_> :)
[13:21] <gobbe> blup: hmmh. if this hapepns only with minecraft you might need to contact their support
[13:22] <rumpe2> nightcrow, well... man hostname says, there is a script /etc/init.d/hostname.sh ...  use it
[13:22] <blup> gobbe: i'm using minecraft as an example... it happens with any .jre
[13:22] <nightcrow_> rumpe2: tried that - doesnt work
[13:22] <nightcrow_> :-/
[13:22] <blup> gobbe: .jar*
[13:22] <rumpe2> nightcrow, what exactly did you try and what were the error-messages?
[13:22] <wyclif> alright
[13:22] <mr_shed> campbellgolf, I was thinking of downloading Visual Web 2008 on my Vista machine. I understand c# is rather "Java-like" from what I've seen on the web.
[13:23] <rumpe2> nightcrow, look into the script... there is also a parameter "reload"
[13:23] <gobbe> blup: hmmh. interesting. What is OS that you are running? Do you get anykind of error messages under /var/log?
[13:23] <peepsalot> what is a good utility for making keyboard macros
[13:23] <gobbe> blup: i'm running .jar's now without any problem
[13:23] <shaggy2> !ping
[13:23] <Stava> How should I copy knoppix to a usb memory stick and make it bootable? :o
[13:23] <blup> gobbe: let me check the log, good point
[13:23] <nightcrow_> rumpe2: there is no such script
[13:24] <nightcrow_> called hostname.sh
[13:24] <gobbe> Stava: #knoppix or something, this channel is only for Ubuntu support
[13:24] <Stava> gobbe, Well im doing it with ubuntu
[13:24] <Stava> gobbe, I can only find guides for windows
[13:25] <campbellgolf> mr_shred do you have a ".edu" email, you can get VS2010, Win03, Win08, SQLServer 2008 free from M$.  www.dreamspark.com
[13:25] <rumpe2> nightcrow, is the package hostname installed?
[13:25] <mr_shed> my main concern is that, given what Visual Web Developer can do 'out of the box' with a few mere drag-and-drop motions, is everybody going to be moving in that direction? I see much of the web now either operating on MVC foundations (using various frameworks) or .NET 2/3.5/4 ... no longer see much about "simple" php-mysql or even AJAX.
[13:25] <gobbe> Stava: still. it has nothing to do with ubuntu support
[13:25] <gobbe> Stava: you should ask from #knoppix or google
[13:25] <nightcrow_> rumpe2: isnt it default?
[13:26] <rumpe2> nightcrow_, don't know ... here (ubuntu 10.04) it is
[13:26] <blup> gobbe: no, nothing relevant in the syslog... and as i've said, i thought with a new computer and new OS (Mint Ubuntu 10.10), it would fix the problem, but i haven't successfully ran a java file since i changed to linux
[13:26] <mole1> I am complete newbie on karmic version of ubuntu. Book says on inserting audio cd rhythmbox will will play automatically...all the threads I can find are to stop it doing this I have the opposite problem...nothing happens at all even though I have setting to play automatically...the cdrom does not show in the side panel...nada..what do I do next please?
[13:27] <mr_shed> campbellgolf, wow! but no :( ... might have to call my cousin, see if he can download them from MS then.
[13:27] <wyclif> Stava: it's possible to do that, so no worries
[13:27] <campbellgolf> mr_shred actually, M$ is pushing WPF (Windows Resentation Foundation) using XAML to link various UI elements.  I don't think is as drag'n drop as the classic .NET development has been since .NET 1.0
[13:28] <blup> gobbe: could it be related to the graphics card?
[13:29] <wyclif> Stava: wwww.novell.com/communities/node/4536/how-create-external-usb-bootable-linux-hard-drive-without-dual-boot
[13:29] <gobbe> blup: it might
[13:29] <gobbe> blup: c's i'm running several jar's everyday without problems, tho they are not games
[13:29] <campbellgolf> mr_shred anyways check that out, and PM me for additional info, I don't think the folks on the #Ubuntu channel appreciate us hijacking it for a M$ discussion.. what sux, is there are no decent IRC channels for M$ that I have found, nothing compared to Java IRC channels  ;-(
[13:29] <wyclif> Stava: navigate to that page, scroll down and use "Method 1", follow the instructions
[13:30] <Stava> wyclif, thanks
[13:30] <wyclif> Stava: it's 9 or 10 steps but they're simple
[13:31] <wyclif> Stava: no worries, hope it helps
[13:31] <blup> gobbe: in fact, last time i had this issue with my old computer, ubuntu would crash running 'Processing' files, but if i ran them in vmware with windows xp, it would run fine..
[13:31] <mr_shed> thanks a lot campbellgolf  and sorry #ubuntu, didn't mean to drag M$ (boo-hisss!) into this place :)
[13:31] <sacarlson> mole1: if you plan to play media you should install restricted package: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats

[13:34] <mole1> Thanks sacarlson, when I look at the synaptic packages list, all packages I have seen recommended seem to be checked already as installed...
[13:36] <gobbe> blup: what other jar's are causing same thing?
[13:36] <sacarlson> mole1: well with that if your cd fails to open I think it's hardware
[13:36] <mr_shed> ok, onto matters exclusively ... umm ... non-M$. Rhythmbox & LAN-shares. is Rhythmbox buggy? I have over 60+ CDs ripped to my Netgear NAS box. it runs on a stripped down linux distro (I'm pretty certain of this, though I haven't checked) and communicates well with my Ubuntu for most things. I have super-massive folder of mp3s and FLACs, which I can easily drag-n-drop into "other" more bloated media-applications, unfortunately, when I drag-n-
[13:36] <mr_shed> drop it into Rhythmbox... it imports some, crashes, takes down the explorer folder with it, then comes back, shows it's still importing, then crashes ... on and on ...
[13:36] <sacarlson> mole1: hardware includes bad media cd disk
[13:36] <lucrfff> !list
[13:36] <mr_shed> dammit, I really should be more concise in my typing :(
[13:37] <h-dee> Hi...I have LAMP installed. But I can't copy files to /var/www. What do I need to do exactly?  I need advice this time.
[13:37] <Lacknafta> Hi
[13:38] <blup> gobbe: processing .jars for example
[13:38] <mole1> sacarlson....Ok just checking the link you gave will see if this sorts the problem, many thanks
[13:38] <gobbe> h-dee: what kind of error do you get?
[13:38] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, you gotta be root
[13:38] <r00t4rd3d> or use sudo
[13:38] <h-dee> It don't show Paste option in /var/www.
[13:39] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, you gotta be root
[13:39] <gobbe> h-dee: that's because you don't have write-rights there
[13:39] <r00t4rd3d> you could always change the permissions for www but not sure how safe that is
[13:39] <h-dee> goobe: r00t4rd3d: So do I need to use sudo everytime to copy, modify files?
[13:39] <Guest53906> that's fucking ubuntu
[13:39] <r00t4rd3d> yup
[13:39] <gobbe> h-dee: you can make /var/www owned by you
[13:39] <Tm_T> Guest53906: watch your language
[13:39] <gobbe> h-dee: then you dont
[13:39] <gobbe> Tm_T: !
[13:40] <mr_shed> "Fucking Ubuntu" - new distro?
[13:40] <h-dee> goobe: r00t4rd3d: I don't want to make it a webser but just a local test server
[13:40] <Rubenstukken> I installed Ubuntu on a Dell Dimension C521, there is a problem with the mouse, after some search I found out it is a very known problem with Dell C521, which is fixed by updating the Bios. But this needs to be done through MS Dos, So I made an MS Dos Bootable cd, and placed the Biosinstallation file in an ntfs-partition. Problem is, I dont know how to find this partition and hence the installation file when I am booting from
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> You could use Groups also i belive to access the www-data dirs
[13:40] <gobbe> h-dee: sudo chown youruseraccount -R /var/www/*
[13:40] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, then own the www folder
[13:40] <gobbe> h-dee: or add your useraccount to www-data group
[13:40] <h-dee> goobe: r00t4rd3d: last time I did din
[13:41] <h-dee> goobe: r00t4rd3d: last time I did din't worked...thats how i screwed up my /var
[13:41] <h-dee> goobe: r00t4rd3d: trying again!
[13:41] <r00t4rd3d> use the command gobbe wrote you
[13:41] <gobbe> h-dee: so what did you do when you screwed it up?
[13:41] <oneliner> Rubenstukken: ubuntu has flasher software, look in the programs download center
[13:41] <h-dee> gobbe: how to add my useracc to www-data?
[13:41] <amaab> @Rubenstukken:Put the bios install files on the cd.
[13:41] <benkay86> Just upgraded from Jaunty to Lucid (fresh install). Has the behavior of gnome-search-tool changed? It no longer seems to search for text within binary files!
[13:42] <gobbe> h-dee: system -> administration -> users and groups
[13:42] <h-dee> gobbe: when chown /var/www didn't worked, I changed /var ownership with -R
[13:42] <gobbe> h-dee: and manage groups from there
[13:42] <sacarlson> h-dee: try System>admin>user groups> select user and add group
[13:42] <h-dee> gobbe: thanks! I'll try that now.
[13:42] <mr_shed> ok, anyone know of a good +robust+ mediaplayer that can handle FLAC files and works well with network shares?
[13:43] <Rubenstukken> @amaab, How do I make a bootable Dos with the installation file, just copying the files doesnt work it isnt bootable anymore then, I dont have a floppy drive... So how do I burn both the iso and the installation file?
[13:43] <Guest53906> why are using ubuntu? i think that this distro is uncomfortable
[13:44] <nickoe> Is there direct links to latest stable ubuntu?
[13:44] <gobbe> Guest53906: it's your opinion
[13:44] <h-dee> gobbe: My main group is same as my username. Should I modify that entry or is there some other option to append that 'www-data' group too?
[13:44] <sacarlson> mr_shed: if you you need is a plyaer then audacious is cool but there are others that do much more
[13:44] <mattyh88> hey, how can i go into keyboard preferences via terminal? (server edition) 10.10
[13:44] <Guest53906> Tm_T: where are you from?
[13:44] <gobbe> h-dee: no, browse www-data group, open it and add yoru account there
[13:45] <Tm_T> Guest53906: that is offtopic here, try #ubuntu-offtopic instead
[13:45] <nickoe> And i shourd be an cdrom image
[13:45] <h-dee> gobbe: Okay I did. trying again. thanks!
[13:46] <mr_shed> sacarlson, I'm struggling to get Rhythmbox and Amarok to work with my NAS shares, so I really just want something that is "guaranteed to work", don't require much more than playlists really.
[13:46] <mr_shed> I'll try audacious now
[13:46] <ksian_sf> my linux wont boot amymore, I am stuck on a screen somethyng with busybox
[13:46] <sacarlson> mr_shed: your shares have nothing to do with the players
[13:46] <ksian_sf> and some errors of this type
[13:46] <ksian_sf> mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/c3c4608e-fb99-4989-bfe2-ede4aec72b38 on /root

[13:47] <ksian_sf> mount: mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or dirctory
[13:47] <virtuald> whats the channel name for the translation team?
[13:48] <mr_shed> sacarlson, I find that Rhythmbox can't load files to the media library - reports an internal bug in the "g-stream" component -  and that Amarok gives me no access to the network folders through its menus.
[13:48] <virtuald> or the real question is; is it possible to translate pages on wiki.ubuntu.com?
[13:49] <asw> conky installation reported Can't locate your X11 installation
[13:49] <Rubenstukken> Does anyone know how to make a bootable MS Dos cd with one extra file, without messing up the bootability? I need this to update my Bios, because of very known mouse problem om my DEll C521. I don't have any Dos-system anywhere. Just an image for making a a bootable Dos-cd and the installation file for the update of my Bios
[13:49] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, did you figure it out ?
[13:49] <sacarlson> mr_shed: if you just mounted you shares as normal directory with your user that you now play with having normal access to them I wouldn't expect you would see this type of error
[13:50] <sacarlson> mr_shed: fix your mounts first
[13:50] <chau> đ
[13:50] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, goto users and groups , then click manage groups , scroll down to www-data , highlight , click properties , your username should be in the box , check it.
[13:50] <h-dee> r00t4rd3d: I changed the owner, and it did copied. However the script is not executing. I'm trying to run SocialEngine script. Now trying Wordpress to check if it works. Thanks!
[13:51] <h-dee> r00t4rd3d: I did that part. :-)
[13:51] <ksian_sf> this are the erors http://paste.ubuntu.com/549533/
[13:51] <sacarlson> Rubenstukken: wonder if you could use virtualbox to do such things?
[13:52] <wyclif> hi prince12
[13:52] <prince12> HELLO CAN YOU HELP ME MY NET CONNECTION IS VERYSLOW AND I WANT TO DOWNLOAD UBUNTU 10.10
[13:53] <r00t4rd3d> LOL
[13:53] <mr_shed> sacarlson, hmm how would I know if it is an issue with the mounting? what would I check?
[13:53] <wyclif> !ubuntu | prince12
[13:53] <wyclif> oops
[13:53] <sacarlson> mr_shed: see if you can read and write to the directory you need to access
[13:53] <wyclif> !download | prince12
[13:53] <r00t4rd3d> wyclif, why are you always issuing them things to people ?
[13:53] <prince12> I AM USING WINDOWS XP NOW BUT IT IS VERY BAD
[13:53] <Rubenstukken> sacarlson, I'm not so sure about that, you can open the installation file from a windows-environment which will shutdown windows and then update the bios.. here is the explanation from Dell http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R142795&SystemID=DIM_P4_C521&servicetag=6JZ24D1&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=308&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=4&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=1&fileid=190570
[13:54] <wyclif> root4rd3d not always, once
[13:54] <r00t4rd3d> prince12, turn off caps lock
[13:54] <wyclif> r0t4rd3d: first one was my mistake
[13:54] <mole1> sacarlson...if I have understood this right an audio CD won't play or show in Rhythmbox unless one has installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras package? Unfortunately clicking on the link to install this on the page you gave a return "not found"...trying via the terminal gives the same response...is this maybe due to temporary unavailability perhaps?...is there anywhere else to get it?
[13:54] <prince12> ok i have turned off caps lock
[13:54] <benkay86> How can I search for a Microsoft Word document containing a text string?
[13:54] <wyclif> prince12: yay
[13:54] <r00t4rd3d> prince12, use the ubuntu torrent
[13:54] <r00t4rd3d> that way you can start , stop , resume
[13:54] <r00t4rd3d> etc
[13:55] <wyclif> r00t4rd3d: because he wanted to know where to download Ubuntu and it's easier than saying the same things over and over again
[13:55] <prince12> ok wait
[13:55] <mr_shed> sacarlson, that's the problem, I can w-r-x them perfectly well. I set up the shares months back and nothing was causing me any problems :(
[13:55] <r00t4rd3d> prince12, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#bt
[13:55] <r00t4rd3d> for the torrents
[13:55] <sacarlson> Rubenstukken: well one method calls out Run the BIOS update utility from Windows environment, so is that not doable from a virtualbox run of windows?
[13:55] <gobbe> benkay86: doesn't openoffice open it?
[13:56] <jo_> hello there, i'm on the ubuntu website trrying to upgrade to 10.10 and it says that i should "check" in update update manager but when i "check" nothing appears
[13:56] <benkay86> gobbe: I'm thinking of something more like gnome-search-tool. I want to find files containing text.
[13:56] <Lightmaster_alex> Hey there everyone.I'm just testing this irc client on my new android device
[13:56] <Sriram> mole1, Nope, seems to be working for me
[13:56] <sacarlson> mr_shed: does that mean problem solved?  or not?
[13:57] <rumpe2> benkay86, grep
[13:57] <asw> Need help configuring conky-1.8 on Ubuntu 10.10 error message Can't locate your X11 installation
[13:57] <Sriram> jo_: Try update-manager -d in your terminal
[13:57] <mr_shed> sacarlson, nope, still not working well with Rhythmbox
[13:57] <jo_> thanks
[13:57] <virtuald> i found no way to translate the wiki so i guess it's not possible at this time
[13:57] <sacarlson> mr_shed: from what you wanted my audaciuos sounded good
[13:57] <Rubenstukken> sacarlson, you think it will not be a problem that I am running Ubuntu while updating the Bios? to be honest I don't know much about computers I just try figuring things out when I need to do so, Where is the Bios located also on the hard drive?  Unfortunately this question pertains to my 60 year-old father.
[13:58] <jo_> sriram: thank you <3
[13:58] <sacarlson> Rubenstukken: to update the bios is a risky thing so the safist method is always best
[13:58] <Sriram> jo_: Your welcome
[13:59] <elky> is there a way to split contacts in evolution that have accidentally been merged somehow?
[13:59] <mr_shed> sacarlson, I'm going to try that thanks. I'm just not sure why Rhythmbox is having trouble with the NAS share folder. it puzzles me ... I could have made a mistake on the mounting, I'm sure, but I don't see any problems with it anywhere else.
[13:59] <sacarlson> Rubenstukken: I think I would install dual boot if that was an option,  witch it is
[13:59] <prince12> it is not seeming to work
[13:59]  * Sriram is building VIM 7.3.081
[14:00] <Guest53906> vse loshary
[14:00] <virtuald> rubenstukken: the bios is not on the hard drive, it's in a cmos memory module
[14:00] <Guest53906> we are talking about loshary here
[14:00] <Guest53906> !
[14:01] <Sriram> elky: Don't think so.
[14:01] <sacarlson> mr_shed: your NAS already have /etc/fstab entries I"m sure
[14:01] <jo_> can someone redirect me to the wine server
[14:01] <Guest53906> loshary is new distro
[14:01] <jo_> the wine chat thing i means
[14:01] <prince12> prince12-can anyone solve my problem
[14:01] <Sriram> jo_: What wine chat thing?
[14:02] <Sriram> jo_: Wine channel on IRC?
[14:02] <Rubenstukken> sacarlson, Yes It seems that thats the best solution, I will need to find a pirate version of win xp or something, dont have any cd of it. I installed Ubuntu on the machine to avoid having to install windows which always gives me much more problems than installing Ubuntu. I havent worked with windows for a long time, and I am pretty scared of it :D
[14:02] <jo_> sriram: that's right
[14:02] <IdleOne> jo_: /join #winehq
[14:02] <Sriram> jo_: It's #wine
[14:02] <chau> just close the page?
[14:03] <Sriram> jo_: Sorry, #winehq
[14:03] <m1r> hello
[14:03] <Sriram> m1r: Hello
[14:04] <m1r> i cant set visible resolution for VT 1-7 on ubuntu 10.04.1 (netbook hpmini 2130 1024x600). any tips how to fix resolution ?
[14:04] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, i found a easier way to do it , gksudo nautilus
[14:04] <elky> Sriram, ok, i guess i'll just make the 20 or so<EMAIL_ADDRESS>addresses that evolution has assigned to the contact called "accounts" :-/
[14:04] <Elsa> EGEGEEGEGEGEIII
[14:04] <Elsa> LOSHARY
[14:04] <mr_shed> sacarlson, I just checked fstab and no, there are no entries there for the NAS, it just loads like links created at reboot. yet I can w-r-x on the NAS without a problem at all. Strange.
[14:05] <Daekdroom> !CoC | Elsa
[14:05] <sacarlson> Rubenstukken: see pm solution
[14:05] <Elsa> what's up?
[14:05] <sacarlson> mr_shed: and no wonder it don't work all the time
[14:05] <Elsa> is it Blondie Blog?
[14:06] <Sriram> m1r: You're using the Netbook edition, right?
[14:06] <h-dee> r00t4rd3d: yes I checked that too. But still I have to launch it first. I actually wanted a local server, not a web-server so changing owner to local user won't harm in my case. But still I appreciate your help and suggestions :-)
[14:06] <virtuald> rubenstukken: if you can extract the bios image from the archive file, you can sometimes use flashrom (a command line tool) to flash it
[14:06] <m1r> Siriam, regular desktop 32bit 10.04
[14:06] <m1r> Sriram:
[14:06] <prince12> can anyone help me please
[14:07] <Elsa>  rubenstukken: where did you take thi fucking nick?
[14:07] <mr_shed> sacarlson, indeed .. I guess I just assumed it should be mounted there because of the w-r-x actions I was allowed through Network Places > NAS
[14:07] <r00t4rd3d> h-dee, you want to be careful running a file manager as root though , 1 accidental delete and your all done :D
[14:07] <Sriram> m1r, Try the Netbook edition, might auto-set the resolution
[14:07] <prince12> who is dwarder
[14:07] <m1r> Sriram: no reinstall posible
[14:08] <m1r> Sriram: production system
[14:08] <IdleOne> !language | Elsa
[14:08] <linxeh> prince12: what is your problem? that would be a good start :)
[14:08] <Sriram> m1r: Ah okay
[14:08] <Daekdroom> IdleOne, it's a troll if you read a few lines up.
[14:08] <m1r> Sriram: this problem appeared after upgrade to 10.04 few months back, but didnt need VT's at the time
[14:08] <prince12> i am not able to download ubuntu 10.10 because my net connection is very slow can you help me?
[14:09] <h-dee> r00t4rd3d: thanks for the caution, but I won't be needing to use gksudo nautilus, and I just changed ownership for /var/www. Rests DEFAULT!

[14:11] <prince12> thank you for helping me:)
[14:11] <campbellgolf> if your connection is too slow, go to a coffee shop and use their wifi
[14:12] <gobbe> juniour: change repository servers
[14:12] <juniour> how to do that
[14:12] <linxeh> prince12: can you get a friend to download it, or download it on an alternative connection (coffee shop, whatever)
[14:12] <linxeh> heh
[14:12] <Sriram> m1r: But, i guess that an upgrade to 10.10 might fix your problem. "update-manager -d"
[14:12] <gobbe> juniour: you got several times today instructions for that
[14:12] <linxeh> prince12: you are in india ?

[14:25] <h-dee> Hi...1 more question. Is there any way to bulk upgrade those packages. Kernel or some other library updates can be updated using UPDATE MANAGER, but it do not list all packages requiring updates. Examples: FileZilla, ClamTK etc.
[14:25] <midas> PM m e if you can help me with Subversion please! Thanks
[14:25] <sacarlson> Sriram: you mean your chrome browser I assume,  you can create a hotkey for it System>preferenc>keyboard hot key
[14:25] <juniour> linker got it
[14:25] <sresu> Which command returns the total number of files and/or directories listed?
[14:25] <cutiyar> i installed 10.04.1 lts BUT does not connect to my huawei modem
[14:26] <juniour> sresu ls -l
[14:26] <linker> juniour, but it is showing like this warning: commands will be executed using /bin/sh
[14:26] <IdleOne> midas: you might try #subversion also
[14:26] <linker> at>
[14:26] <juniour> k
[14:26] <juniour> do ti
[14:26] <juniour>  no ploblem
[14:26] <Sriram> sacarlson, Nope, Chrome OS
[14:27] <sacarlson> Sriram: you run chrome os from ubuntu?
[14:27] <midas> Ok more specifically, i want to know (now that SVN works) where the files are, so that I can make that the webroot (its for website dev) thx
 you need to change mod from flash to modem
[14:27] <gobbe> Sriram: you should ask that from #chromeos or something
[14:27] <linker> juniour, if i want to cancel its job how?
[14:27] <cutiyar> <vadimkiselev ,how?
[14:27] <sresu> juniour: -l     use a long listing format. I need only the total no. of files & directories with *total* size
[14:28] <sacarlson> Sriram: I guess you could with virtualbox
[14:28] <jeff72834> I am having problem with my wireless internet connections on ubuntu was working last night and now is not will work on a wired connection but not on wireless all i get is can not find server but connection is 100% and connected
[14:28] <h-dee> Hi...1 more question. Is there any way to bulk upgrade installed packages. Kernel or some other library updates can be updated using UPDATE MANAGER, but it do not list all packages requiring updates. Examples: FileZilla, ClamTK etc. Any way to upgrade all such apps in a bulk fashion?
[14:28] <Sriram> sacarlson, Not Chrome OS. Maybe an OS that boots up really fast
[14:29] <cutiyar> vadimkiselev ,how?
[14:29] <gobbe> h-dee: if you have installed them thru aptitude/apt-get they are updated also
[14:29] <gobbe> h-dee: if you downloaded them from website, no
[14:29] <juniour> sresu find / -type f -ls
[14:29] <sacarlson> Sriram: but your already booted up in ubuntu, so how will that help?
[14:29] <Elsa> Kisel does it kno
 see in google. i'm already forgot it
[14:29] <jeff72834> I am having problem with my wireless internet connections on ubuntu was working last night and now is not will work on a wired connection but not on wireless all i get is can not find server but connection is 100% and connected
[14:30] <h-dee> gobbe: I check FileZilla, and it said Update available, and update using package manager. Similar for ClamTK. Installed from Software center.
[14:30] <gobbe> h-dee: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade will do the job
[14:30] <Sriram> sacarlson:  Nope, on startup. If you have some urgent emails to check
[14:30] <juniour> jeff72834 just remove all connection and add again
[14:31]  * biil loves sudo apt-get
[14:31] <gobbe> Sriram: that's not ubuntu issue - This channel is only for ubuntu support
[14:31] <sresu> juniour: Ah.. no not like that.
[14:31] <jeff72834> i have tried that
[14:31] <jeff72834> no luck
[14:31] <Sriram> gobbe, Sorry
[14:31] <h-dee> gobbe: Tried both. Nothing worked. 'upgrade' installed what UPDATE MANAGER was listing, and 'update' updated package list. Neither updated individual installed apps.
[14:31] <sacarlson> h-dee: you can go into synaptic and select all the apps you want to upgrade and click apply
[14:32] <coz_> fabula,    did you see my PM?
[14:32] <jeff72834> not only does not work on ubuntu side but in virtualbox wireless can not find server either
[14:32] <sam_> hello any super techs here?
[14:32] <bastidrazor> ubottu tell h-dee about latest
[14:32] <gobbe> !ask | sam_
[14:32] <h-dee> sacarlson: No offense, I find Synaptic bit weird. Any other way?

[14:33] <SteM> anyone worked with the Digicom DigiTune USB key ?
[14:33] <IdleOne> h-dee: keep in mind that the packages will only be upgraded if there is a upgrade available in the repositories. So you may read about a new release of an application but that does not mean it is in the repos (yet)
[14:33] <sresu> juniour: I'm looking for something what tree writes in the end - 6044 directories, 59269 files. But only more thing I need it to display is total size not individual size of files etc
[14:34] <h-dee> IdleOne: Okay! So how long usually it takes to update the repository from the back-end?
[14:34] <juniour> sresu k
[14:34] <bastidrazor> sresu: in terminal du -sh
[14:34] <coz_> fabula,   are you here?

[14:34] <grandrew> hi all! Is there any howto on 'expert command line install' method?
[14:35] <sresu> juniour: Thanks anyway
[14:35] <gobbe> grandrew: alternative installer
[14:35] <juniour> k
[14:35] <sresu> bastidrazor: ty
[14:35] <IdleOne> h-dee: all depends. Ubuntu strives for stability and not always having the most up to date version.
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> grandrew:  not a whole lot to it.. asks a few questions.. doesd the install...
[14:35] <h-dee> IdleOne: Okay Thanks! :-)
[14:35] <IdleOne> h-dee: sure thing
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> grandrew:  unless you are refering to somthing other then the alternative installer.
[14:35] <grandrew> I want to install base system from command line
[14:35] <erUSUL> !minimal | grandrew
[14:36] <gobbe> grandrew: that's what you can do with alternative installer

[14:36] <sresu> How to change the scrollback length of terminal?
[14:36] <biscari> !LIST
[14:36] <grandrew> I guess there is some package alias like 'apt-get install base-system' ?
[14:36] <sam_> heres my problem, i have win 7 installed i also partioned my hd to allow space for ubuntu. im not sure exactly what happened but i couldnt get eighter to load. now i have been using both for a while dual boot. i get an error this day thats said cant find partion. so i put in my live cd and figure i can reinstall to recove my grub. i install to free space which is like 12g and when i start my cpu i get the grub load win7 or ubuntu. i choose ub
[14:36] <sam_> untu. but it loads the new one not the one i had i still have the other ubuntu partion i can access it through the places then computer how can i get it to load to the original ubuntu?
[14:37] <shuimu> hi！
[14:37] <sam_> hi
[14:37] <h-dee> IdleOne: Yeah the repos aren't updated. LOL!
[14:37] <coz_> fabula,
[14:38] <grandrew> I actually tried to install from alternate minimal cd but the automatic installation is broken due to bug with absence of --force-yes in pae kernel installation script; so I need to know how to install the base system from command line only
[14:38] <sam_> so basicaly i have to ubuntus installed the original one and the one i just installed but i want to have it boot to the otiginal and delete the other new one
[14:38] <NixGeek> sam_delete the new partition and follow number 13 on this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275
[14:38] <coz_> grandrew,  did you try the minimal install cd
[14:38] <sam_> ok ty
[14:38] <sam_> how do i delete the partion?
[14:39] <NixGeek> sam_, you are very welcome, glad I could help.
[14:39] <sam_> im running on the new partion now
[14:39] <IdleOne> h-dee: they are updated fairly often, just that Ubuntu does not automatically update/upgrade a package just because it has been released.
[14:39] <coz_> grandrew,    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> sam_:  fdisk, or gparted. or just reformat ti some new clean filesystem
 gparted from livecd
[14:39] <NixGeek> boot into the ubuntu live cd, go to system > administration> gparted
[14:39] <sam_> ok ty ill let ya know how it goes ty again
[14:39] <grandrew> coz_, yes I am using it right now. It is broken so I need to use it in command-line only install method. I want to know how.
[14:39] <h-dee> IdleOne: Yeah...got that. Thanks! :-)
[14:40] <coz_> grandrew,  are you using the alternate cd or the minmal install cd?
[14:40] <grandrew> minimal
[14:40] <NixGeek> find the partitiona and choose delete.  make sure it's the new installation though, you don't want to accidently delete your old one.
[14:40] <coz_> grandrew,  oh  mmm
[14:40] <tas> how to get empathy run each time mybuntu starts??
[14:40] <erUSUL> tas: System>Preferences>startup apps
[14:41] <tas> erUSUL, what do I do in browse button? I dunno how to add empathy
[14:41] <Sriram> Is there any way to disable join /quit messages in this channel
[14:41] <sacarlson> NixGeek: will that not put him back were he was with no working operating system?
[14:41] <erUSUL> tas: in command type "empathy".
[14:42] <erUSUL> Sriram: depends on the chat client you use
[14:42] <NixGeek> sacarison, if he deltes the new install and follows the guide I pointed him to, he will be able to reinstall just grub from the live cd
[14:42] <sam_> ok is there a way to tell which one is which? is there a date one them when i created them?
[14:43] <Sriram> erSUB: Yes, i disabled the messages in xchat,now
[14:43] <sam_> or i have to go by the size of the partion?

[14:45] <john99999999> hi if i am executing command like this:   "   sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade  "   is the second sudo required?
[14:45] <john99999999> how long does the current sudo last ?
[14:46] <coz_> john99999999,   just do  sudo apt-get update &&  sudo apt-get -upgrade
[14:46] <erUSUL> john99999999: it is needed. but you only have to enter pasword once
[14:46] <chau> when i restart my device my application setting launch
[14:46] <john99999999> coz_: why -upgrade? not upgrade?
[14:46] <chau> when i restart my device my application setting launch
[14:46] <coz_> john99999999,  actually usual is    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[14:46] <IdleOne> john99999999: it is upgrade without the -
[14:46] <juniour> ya john99999999 upgrade
[14:46] <vadimkiselev> how to allow php scripts load files (apache)
[14:47] <john99999999> why dist-upgrade?
[14:47] <john99999999> i only want to upgrade packages
[14:47] <juniour> ya  try this
[14:47] <coz_> john99999999,   a dist -upgrade will replace  applications with new versions if they are available
[14:47] <john99999999> same as upgrade?
[14:47] <john99999999> lol
[14:47] <arunce> no
[14:48] <coz_> john99999999,    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[14:48] <coz_> john99999999, sorry
[14:48] <coz_> john99999999,    apt-get upgrade will upgrade the package versions on your system when a newer version is available. It still does dependency checking and will skip upgrading a package in the case of a conflict

[14:59] <jeff72834> under hardware drivers shows activated and currently in use for broadcom wireless driver B43 but i do have broadcom Sta wireless driver that is also showing up but not active or downloaded
[14:59] <Da_Rhyno> What can I use for C/C++ development on here though?
[14:59] <Dr_Willis> spidernet:  'perl' is included in most all disrtos these days
[14:59] <jeff72834> should i activate other driver as well?

[15:04] <erUSUL> Da_Rhyno: an IDE
[15:04] <Da_Rhyno> ah, cool. :D
[15:04] <Da_Rhyno> Thanks
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> gavin__:  i imagine you would be better served by some good 'referance' books. that you can refer back to to look up specific things you may need to learn. instead of an audio book.
[15:05] <AbstractBeliefs> is there anyone around who'd help me troubleshoot dropped wireless connections? (Ubuntu 10.04, Atheros card w/ath5k, can ping, can connect for a time, then fails)
[15:05] <Dr_Willis> gavin__:  tjeres some tutorial podcast type sites out there. but they tend to be for specific apps. like 'learning the gimp'
[15:05] <gavin__> Dr_willis: Have good books but they are hard to read when walking the dog :) hence the ausiobook
[15:06] <elvanor> Hello, I am trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 on a P5B-VM, but it wont boot (kernel panic)

[15:06] <rohit786> hello
[15:06] <AbstractBeliefs> erusul, thanks
[15:06] <erUSUL> AbstractBeliefs: and reboot; maybe newer drivers help
[15:06] <erUSUL> AbstractBeliefs: no waranties though
[15:06] <elvanor> If I use the acpi=off boot option then it boots but it wont recognize the DVD drive and thus later cannot install
[15:06] <juniour> elvanor wt error u got
[15:06] <juniour> ?
[15:06] <AbstractBeliefs> erusul, as always =]
[15:07] <elvanor> juniour, it is a kernel panic but I cannot copy it
[15:07] <elvanor> it only appears when the screen is totally locked
[15:07] <juniour> it like kernel not detected
[15:07] <elvanor> Apparently has to do with ACPI as the acpi=off option makes it boot. at least a bit.
