[19:54] <jo-erlend> it used to be easy to "convert" a website to a local application in Firefox. That is, to run the website as its own application window. I can no longer figure out how to do that. How do I do that? :)
[19:54] <Jakman85> is the geforce 6100 supported with the newest drivers?
[19:54] <jo-erlend> Jakman85, support is often a relative term. I would just test it and see how well it works.
[19:55] <acicula> jo-erlend: nvidia maintains 3 different driver branches for 3 different groups of gpus, which are not interchangeable, its not relative its fairly exact ;_
[19:55] <scummos> oh dear
[19:55] <scummos> the driver loads, X starts, but I get no image
[19:56] <scummos> what could be the reason for that?
[19:56] <jo-erlend> acicula, I mean that even if a device is supported, it doesn't necessarily mean it's 100% stable, fast or correct.
[19:56] <dr_willis> dork,  so the headphone jack works. but the interspeakers dont. ive seen issues where peole have those jacks fail to toggle the internal speakers on or off properly
[19:56] <Jakman85> xuser, 64-bit or 32-bit system?
[19:57] <acicula> scumos was it working before or during the installation?
[19:57] <xuser1> 32
[19:57] <truepurple> http://free.avg.com/us-en/download.prd-alf Which one should one download for ubuntu 11.04, 64 bit version?
[19:57] <Jakman85> jo-erlend, i understand, but i am just making sure he has the correct driver and actually took the time to see if his card is supported. If it is, then we dive deeper
[19:57] <xuser1> this is the /var/log/Xorg.0.log"   http://pastebin.com/1HKZLmRg
[19:57] <shockrates> hey
[19:58] <shockrates> is there a 64bit wine available for 11.04?
[19:58] <yeats> jo-erlend: this may help in your Firefox question: http://www.salsitasoft.com/blog/2011/04/18/packaging-webrunner-applications/
[19:58] <jo-erlend> Jakman85, oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were talking to someone in particular. I thought it was your question. :)
[19:58] <yeats> jo-erlend: looks like it was Prism that allowed you to do that, and it's no longer being developed
[19:59] <xuser1> Fatal server error: no screens found    /any ideas?
[19:59] <shockrates> i have a problem installing wine
[19:59] <Jakman85> xuser1, do you have a screen? ;-) j/k
[19:59] <shockrates> when it tried to get some fonts from sourceforge, it cant connect
[20:00] <xuser1> yes ;-)
[20:00] <Jakman85> try running the nvidia installer again... when it spits out information when it is installing, pastebin it
[20:00] <BluesKaj> xuser1, did you just update and reboot
[20:00] <VolodymyrB> hi i have an error installing 11.04 (cannot mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem. squashfs), the error exactly the same as in thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1588547
[20:00] <xuser1> what?
[20:01] <shockrates> who is the idiot who packaged wine in ubuntu?
[20:01] <acicula> VolodymyrB: how much memory is there in your machine?
[20:01] <Jakman85> xuser1, try running the nvidia installer again... when it spits out information when it is installing, pastebin it
[20:01] <VolodymyrB> 512 mb
[20:01] <scummos> wow, my xorg.conf has 1337 characters ;D
[20:01] <acicula> shockrates: apt-cache show wine shows you the maintainer
[20:01] <zeroburn> hay all, i have a problem with SDL on my ubuntu 11.04-64bit installation, when launching kdenlive, it gives me error: "Failed to initialize SDL: No available video device"
[20:02] <Jakman85> scummos, nice... i dont think it is just a coincidence
[20:02] <xuser1> i already did from text mode but my ubuntu start on text mode again
[20:02] <shockrates> acicula: Maintainer: Scott Ritchie<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:02] <shockrates> is he on the irc?
[20:02] <adrian_______> hey, quick question: is smart boot loader on the ubuntu livecd?
[20:02] <xuser1> i tryed apt-get install nvidia-curernt
[20:02] <scummos> Jakman85: but it still doesn't work. :(
[20:02] <adrian_______> I want to use the ubuntu cd to boot a dvd
[20:02] <VolodymyrB> acicula: 512mb RAM and 240 gb + 40 gb hd
[20:03] <Jakman85> xuser1, you already pastebin-ed the install log?
[20:03] <acicula> shockrates: i doubt that, what is the problem you are having?
[20:03] <Jakman85> scummos, bummer
[20:03] <truepurple>  http://free.avg.com/us-en/download.prd-alf Which one should one download for ubuntu 11.04, 64 bit version? Which is the right type for installing?
[20:03] <acicula> VolodymyrB: ehm i think 512 is enough, not sure
[20:03] <xuser1> when can i find the install log ? what location ?
[20:03] <acicula> shockrates: people here are volunteers or people with a problems, not likely to get direct support from a package maintainer here if he/she is even here
[20:04] <Jakman85> truepurple... do you really need AVG antivirus?
[20:04] <zeroburn> truepurple: hold on ill chek for you
[20:04] <VolodymyrB> acicula: its was enough fro 8.10-10.04
[20:04] <shockrates> acicula: i try to install wine (11.04 ubuntu 64bit here), specifically wine1.3, the installation gets the package from ubuntu then it tries to get some fonts/sources from sourceforge. those sourceforge links are broken/dont connect, so installation hangs. i have tried 3 times to install wine and it fails....
[20:04] <zeroburn> truepurple: http://download.avgfree.com/filedir/inst/avg85flx-r874-a3473.i386.deb its a multi arch install file.. if you are running a debian base system (ubuntu)
[20:05] <shockrates> at least packages like this which are basic should be taken care of...
[20:05] <oCean> !bug | shockrates
[20:05] <Krenair> Just run sudo apt-get upgrade on Ubuntu 10.04. It gives this error:  trying to overwrite '/etc/xul-ext/ubufox.js', which is also in package xul-ext-ubufox 0:0.9-0ubuntu1~mfs~lucid1
[20:05] <acicula> shockrates: that would be a bug, you can file that on launchpad
[20:05] <Jakman85> xuser1, do you have 2 video cards?
[20:05] <xuser1> no
[20:05] <dr_willis> Krenair,  you could remove the offending package.
[20:05] <acicula> VolodymyrB: i cant think of anything obvious why it wouldnt work, can you try the cd in another machine or install via usb?
[20:05] <shockrates> acicula: i have recently created an account in ubuntu forums. is there a tool to get to report bugs?
[20:05] <Jakman85> xuser1, your xconf is configured for 2 DRI modules
[20:06] <oCean> shockrates: read the link ubottu send you
[20:06] <acicula> shockrates: see the factoid ubottu just gave you
[20:06] <Krenair> dr_willis, how might I go about doing this?
[20:06] <xuser1> so what should i do?
[20:06] <dr_willis> Krenair,  sudo apt-get remove PACKAGENAME
[20:06] <VolodymyrB> acicula: i have old machine, so instaling via usb dont fully works
[20:06] <truepurple> Jakman85: Is there another antivirus or maleware program you would recommend more?
[20:07] <dr_willis> truepurple,  i used this file earlier today --> avast4workstation_1.3.0-2_i386.deb
[20:07] <truepurple> and?
[20:07] <dr_willis> truepurple,  it a av scanner.. there ya go.. have fun.
[20:07] <acicula> VolodymyrB: yea i feared that might be an issue, otherwise perhaps the alternate installer? i checked a forum thread on the error message that you got but i could not find a solution there
[20:07] <Jakman85> xuser1, backup your xconf, then removed the DRI2 things in it... try to start up xserver then
[20:08] <dr_willis> avast, avg, clamav, the big 3 from what i researched earlier.
[20:08] <dr_willis> avast seems to be the most popular.
[20:08] <truepurple> yes dr_willis but do you find it better then avg?
[20:08] <Krenair> dr_willis: Great, thanks
[20:08] <truepurple> Do you have reason to believe avast is better then avg?
[20:08]  * yeats uses clamav when he uses av at all
[20:08] <dr_willis> truepurple,  better in what way.. None of them have found anything. :) so  from my ussage they are all identical..
[20:08] <VolodymyrB> acicula: I read it already too
[20:08] <xuser1> the install log is   http://pastebin.com/72QPBCbg
[20:08] <truepurple> clamav won't update properly
[20:08] <Jakman85> truepurple, personally, i dont use anything in linux... the odds of getting it is fairly slim
[20:09] <dr_willis> truepurple,   ive no issues with 'sudo freshclam'
[20:09] <truepurple> That only updated the database
[20:09] <truepurple> not the scanner
[20:09] <dr_willis> truepurple,  and thats all that really needs to be updated the database..
[20:09] <truepurple> or the gui
[20:09] <dr_willis> there is no gui to clamav.. theres front ends.
[20:09] <truepurple> Well its a problem if the scanner never gets updated
[20:09] <truepurple> GUI/front end, same thign
[20:10] <zeroburn> hay all, i have a problem with SDL on my ubuntu 11.04-64bit installation, when launching kdenlive, it gives me error: "Failed to initialize SDL: No available video device"
[20:10] <xuser1> any ideas?
[20:10] <lbracher> I also have a Broadcom wireless card, I followed the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx but no success. lshw shows the card as disabled. Could anybody help me, please? Thanks!
[20:10] <dr_willis> its not really a problem.  its the database thats the heart of it.
[20:10] <centHOGG> clamav .... wait for it...
[20:10] <VolodymyrB> acicula: thanks, i'll try debian
[20:10] <xuser1> http://pastebin.com/72QPBCbg
[20:10] <centHOGG> BWAHAHHAAAAHAAA
[20:10] <centHOGG> sorry
[20:10] <yeats> truepurple: the scanner compares the files on your computer with the files in the updated DB (which is how all of them work afaik)
[20:10] <dr_willis> and if you install the clamav package from the clamav homepage. not via the repos.. you can update all of it i belive.
[20:10] <acicula> shockrates: i just installed wine1.3 and didnt give me any troubles with missing font packages as its downloading them right now?
[20:10] <truepurple> yeats: What scanner?
[20:10] <acicula> VolodymyrB: eh ok
[20:10] <dr_willis> WARNING: Local version: 0.97 Recommended version: 0.97.1
[20:10] <dr_willis> DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq
[20:11] <yeats> 15:09 < truepurple> That only updated the database
[20:11] <yeats> 15:09 < truepurple> not the scanner
[20:11] <shockrates> acicula: did you get the fonts or whatever it downloads from sourceforge?
[20:11] <truepurple> dr_willis: Oh I see
[20:11] <acicula> shockrates: yeah works just fine
[20:11] <acicula> shockrates: if a bit slow
[20:11] <xuser1> :-D
[20:11] <shockrates> acicula: for me it doesnt
[20:11] <shockrates> acicula: i dont know why, i try to manual open the links with firefox, doesnt work either
[20:12] <sender> hello, how can i measure video perfomance in ubuntu?
[20:12] <acicula> shockrates: are you behind some sort of proxy perhaps?
[20:12] <acicula> sender as in benchmark?
[20:12] <dr_willis> every 'virus' ive ever discovered with clamav, avg, or avast. have alwasy been false positives.. :()
[20:12] <sender> acicula: yes exactly
[20:12] <acicula> ehm, phoronix maintains a pretty large benchmark collection suite
[20:12] <Jakman85> xuser1, have you tried removing the DRI2 portions of your xconf like i suggested? I think your video card has been configured twice in it.
[20:12] <sender> acicula: im running 11.04 classic mode and workspace switching is very ugly
[20:13] <zeroburn> sender, what do u mean with "video performance"?
[20:13] <truepurple> Aside from whether linux can be infected or not, I do plan to set up a duel boot with win7
[20:13] <xuser1> how can i do that?
[20:13] <sender> acicula: i'd like to know it's due to video performance
[20:13] <sender> zeroburn: performance of the GPU, rendering
[20:13] <westz> does anyone here use drapes? can i modify the "mode" of wallpapers (scale, zoom, center etc) without actually setting it as the wallpaper? im getting really sick of having to switch to a wallpaper to modify it's settings
[20:13] <acicula> eh do you know what gpu you have?
[20:13] <shockrates> acicula: i dont think so. can you give me the first link of sourceforge in your installation to try it?
[20:14] <Geekydude4> I need help from someone who knows C++
[20:14] <sender> acicula: yes, nvidia 8600GT - i know it's not the most recent card
[20:14] <dr_willis> Hmm. Updated clamav is supposed tobe in the 'backports' repoistory..
[20:14] <acicula> shockrates: its the same as you, its a generick link which redirects
[20:14] <xuser1> i pasted it fron a backup http://pastebin.com/3ZK4spjb ia good now?
[20:14] <xuser1> ;-)
[20:14] <sender> acicula, zeroburn: would this be sufficient for compiz
[20:14] <acicula> sender: did you enable the nvidia driver via additional drivers ?
[20:14] <Jakman85> truepurple, dual booting is fine, i do it right now. I just only have antivirus and malware protection in windows 7
[20:14] <xuser1> ???????
[20:14] <sender> acicula: yes, it gave me the 'driver is activated but not in use'
[20:15] <shockrates> acicula: is there a different launchpad for ubuntu
[20:15] <shockrates> ?
[20:15] <Jakman85> xuser1, looks good on my end
[20:15] <westz> anyone? drapes??
[20:15] <shockrates> acicula: or i report kubuntu bugs in launchpad
[20:15] <acicula> sender: restart x or your system for the driver to take effect
[20:15] <sender> acicula: yes i did..
[20:15] <xuser1> ok i will restart now to see
[20:15] <truepurple> Jakman85: But I want to be able to check for said infections in a environment immune to said infections.
[20:15] <ownz0rjoo> I have an issue with flash player, its playing all my videos at x2 speed with no sound. I have tried to reinstall it still same issues, any ideas?
[20:15] <sender> acicula: actually i've installed the latest from nvidia.com
[20:16] <acicula> sender: ah
[20:16] <acicula> sender: remove those and use the ones provided via addtional drivers
[20:16] <jasonrichardsmit> Hi,  I have a quick question.  My mother came to visit and firestarter started getting hits from her computer against a series of ports.  Her firewall is not logging these outbound connections.  Possible rootkit on her windows laptop?
[20:16] <Jakman85> truepurple, ahhh, gotcha! Just ignore me now ;-)
[20:16] <westz> ownz0rjoo, all flash video sites?
[20:16] <Geekydude4> Can I have some help me debug some C++ code?
[20:16] <truepurple> Jakman85: That way the infection can't hide itself, or prevent its own eraser. And it might run faster under linux
[20:16] <acicula> Geekydude4: try #C++
[20:16] <ownz0rjoo> Westz yes
[20:16] <Geekydude4> Thanks
[20:16] <centHOGG> jasonrichardsmit: rootkit revealer time
[20:17] <zeroburn> sender: seems like the best way to benchmark true 3d/video performance is installing a 3d intensive game and chekking the FPS of the game...
[20:17] <sender> acicula, zeroburn: are you sure? i had that before but gave me this: "driver activated but not in use", i subscribed to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/771788
[20:17] <BluesKaj> sender, drop to a tty by doing,  ctrl+alt+F1 ,  sudo service gdm stop, then sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current
[20:17] <Jakman85> zeroburn, thats the most practical
[20:18] <truepurple> Jakman85: Anyway, I have found information that linux is not immune to infection, especially not its browser. Speaking of, I would really like to find a antimalware program for linux so I can keep my browser clean without some absurd sandboxing setup
[20:18] <dork> edbian: i think your assessment is probably the most accurate, unfortunately i can't get a fresh iso for proof.
[20:18] <BluesKaj> sender then reboot
[20:18] <sender> BluesKaj: i find myself having the "driver activated but not in use"-problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/771788
[20:18] <dork> edbian: with that said, what drink would you like me to make for you? :P
[20:18] <edbian> dork: Can't you download an ISO?
[20:19] <acicula> sender various reasons why that could happen, id try the default driver
[20:19] <BluesKaj> ues sender , that's what I did to get rid of the glitch in jockey
[20:19] <BluesKaj> yes
[20:19] <edbian> dork: I drink if statements and code refactoring
[20:19] <dork> edbian: i just moved, haven't transferred internet yet and i'm stealing a neighbors, seems he has a limited dsl connection
[20:19] <zeroburn> sender: oka.. have you activated desktop efects?
[20:19] <edbian> dork: ouch!
[20:19] <Jakman85> truepurple, the great thing about linux is, even if your browser gets hacked, they only have standard user permissions (not SU).
[20:20] <sender> acicula, zeroburn, BluesKaj: can't activate desktop effects, the tab is missing, ive installed compiz settings and can set everything quite allright, but performance is very bad
[20:20] <sender> acicula, zeroburn, BluesKaj: i wonder if my card is too old
[20:20] <Jakman85> truepurple, unless, of course, you are runnning the browser as a super user... and in that case... shame on you ;-)
[20:20] <acicula> sender tis, not, you probably just installed the wrong driver
[20:20] <sender> acicula, zeroburn, BluesKaj: 8600GT from 2007
[20:20] <truepurple> Jakman85: Which afaik means they can still say steal passwords and credit card information, even if the infection can't spread beyond the browser
[20:20] <dork> external speakers work, i had to max out the volume for one of the videos i was watching. i think i have an older xubuntu build on a mp3 player but i didn't get decent results from xubuntu lucid when i went to install it originally so i went with natty and it identified the hardware properly
[20:20] <BluesKaj> sender, try the commands that I posted ..it should work
[20:21] <dork> so worst case scenario i have to return the laptop, best case scenario is it will be recoverable once i proove the speakers work
[20:21] <sender> BluesKaj: also when i've got the 275 (latest) from NVIDIA installed right now?
[20:21] <edbian> dork: worst case scenario is the world ends tomorrow
[20:21] <dork> edbian: i'll drink to that.
[20:21] <beanluc> !log
[20:21] <sender> BluesKaj: I've tried to go back via additional drivers and booting would hang on a black screen
[20:21] <BluesKaj> sender . just do it
[20:21] <zeroburn> sender:  are you using 64bit linux or 32?
[20:22] <Guest50929> « /win»
[20:22] <sender> zeroburn: 64 bit
[20:22]  * BluesKaj shakes his head
[20:22] <scummos> any ideas? the nvidia module loads, no error messages anywhere (not in X log or so) and still only a black screen
[20:22] <sender> zeroburn:  i'd switch over to 32 if this helps - couldnt decide in the first place
[20:22] <scummos> wrong VSync or so?
[20:22] <sender> BluesKaj: i'd give it a try for sure
[20:22] <alex4443> hello, please tell me if there is a command to reset the network adapter ... i'm desperate :(
[20:22] <zeroburn> sender: 11.04 has a bug with nvidia drivers.. had the same issue.. try installing ai32-libs and reboot and see if that helps
[20:23] <zeroburn> alex4443: reset the network adapter?
[20:23] <alex4443> yes
[20:23] <sender> zeroburn: package couldnt be found..
[20:23] <Jakman85> scummos, can you switch to a terminal? (ctrl+alt+F1 - F6)
[20:23] <sender> zeroburn: how did you do that?
[20:23] <BluesKaj> sender, I had the same problem , and those commands worked for my nvidia card
[20:23] <zeroburn> sender: sorry ia, not ai.. haha typo
[20:24] <sender> BluesKaj: thanks, i'll defo try this - but tried similar and it borked
[20:24] <zeroburn> alex4443: auhm.. what do u mean..
[20:24] <alex4443> reset
[20:24] <rajat123> dr_willis: u dre?
[20:24] <alex4443> just like in windows zeroburn
[20:24] <dr_willis> rajat123,  im in and out all day... getting ready to head out for a few hrs.
[20:24] <BluesKaj> similar isn't the same ,,do the exact commands posted, sender
[20:24] <zeroburn> alex4443: aah oka.. gime a sec..
[20:24] <dr_willis> make it fast. :)
[20:25] <sender> zeroburn: ia32-libs/natty uptodate 20090808ubuntu13 is already installed
[20:25] <sender> zeroburn: so that's not helping anymore
[20:25] <BluesKaj> too many cooks
[20:25] <sender> BluesKaj: i'll try
[20:25] <sender> BluesKaj: sudo service gdm stop, sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current
[20:25] <sender> BluesKaj: right?
[20:25] <zeroburn> sender:  what version drivers do u have installed ??
[20:25] <sender> BluesKaj: are you on 32 or 64?
[20:26] <BluesKaj> yup, sender , but in the tty ., notthe teminal
[20:26] <sender> zeroburn: 275.09.07 nvidia
[20:26] <zeroburn> alex4443: try "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[20:26] <truepurple> So noone knows of a antimalware for linux?
[20:26] <sender> BluesKaj: yes, i know, thanks
[20:26] <alex4443> zeroburn i'm restarting every time to get the computer reseted and i can't take it anymore. this should be done in seconds. i need to find a specific dynamic ip if you understand
[20:26] <BluesKaj> ok good
[20:26] <alex4443> is it posible ?
[20:26] <acicula> truepurple: clamav, free avg are a few
[20:26] <dr_willis> truepurple,  theres also various browser extensions.. but really its just not that big an issue.
[20:27] <truepurple> acicula: I said maleware, not virus
[20:27] <rajat123> dr_willis: i jst updated my ubuntu to 11.04. i have a nvdia graphic crd in my pc. now the problem is....10.04 ver of ubuntu showd some special effects while using d nvida drivers. bt dis ver does not show. ny solution?
[20:27] <edbian> truepurple: There is some but nobody uses them.  I just googled this: http://www.mylinuxsoftware.com/linux_malware_software.html
[20:27] <acicula> truepurple: the difference is moot
[20:27] <edbian> truepurple: strictly speaking, a virus is malware
[20:27] <edbian> malware is just malicious software
[20:27] <westz> truepurple, i agree with clamav. i use it on windows too, it's a great little scanner, but i wouldnt use it for live applications
[20:27] <zeroburn> sender: download the 270.41.06 version.. its the one i run.. its the most stable of all the ones ive tested to get this issues sorted out.. maby itll work for u aswell...
[20:27] <zeroburn> alex4443: sure.. got u.. did u try that command i gave u?
[20:27] <dr_willis> clamav for linux dosent do realtime scanning.. actually im not sure if any of the av software ive seen does realtime scanning.
[20:28] <truepurple> dr_willis: When I tried to install the avast you mentioned, it said "Wrong architecture 'i386'"
[20:28] <dr_willis> truepurple,  i am, on a 32bit system.
[20:28] <dr_willis> it may have 64bit version.. or it may not..
[20:28] <alex4443> oh, i didn't notice that zeroburn thanks i'll try and report back
[20:28] <truepurple> dr_willis: Oh that error is because its for 32 bit, not 64bit?
[20:28] <zeroburn> alex4443: sure np :)
[20:28] <rajat123> dr_willis: i jst updated my ubuntu to 11.04. i have a nvdia graphic crd in my pc. now the problem is....10.04 ver of ubuntu showd some special effects while using d nvida drivers. bt dis ver does not show. ny solution?
[20:29] <dr_willis> truepurple,  i think so.
[20:29] <sender> acicula, zeroburn, BluesKaj: thanks for the help so far, back in a sec to let you know what worked (and if) ;) cheers!
[20:29] <dr_willis> rajat123,  enable compiz. be sure yiouy got the nvidia driveers going first.
[20:29] <dr_willis> bbl - gotta run to the store.
[20:29] <truepurple> dr_willis: But your not sure?
[20:29] <kwtm2> How do I know what the root password is for my MySQL system?
[20:30] <dr_willis> truepurple,  i would have to hit up google with that exact phrase. but  its wording suggests it dosent like your arch.
[20:30] <oCean> kwtm2: if you installed it from the repos, it asks you to set one when installing
[20:30] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, "Wrong architecture 'i386'" does suggest you are running a 64bit OS, are you?  "uname -m" if you aren't sure.
[20:30] <kwtm2> oCean: Okay ... and how do I know what that is?
[20:30] <dr_willis> I do know this is 32bit os i am using. :)
[20:30] <dr_willis> bbl.
[20:30] <oCean> kwtm2: well, try to remember?
[20:30] <kwtm2> oCean: Do I need to have recorded that password?  Also, assuming I did not install it from repos, how do I know?
[20:30] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: Yes I am running 64bit
[20:30] <kwtm2> oCean: (I think it was part of the Amarok installation, present by default)
[20:30] <westz> seriously, i need a decent wallpaper manager that wont lag!
[20:30] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, is it a deb file?
[20:30] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: Yes
[20:31] <oCean> kwtm2: assuming you did not install it from the repos, it's not supported here. The mysql documentation shows how you can recover from lost root password
[20:31] <kwtm2> oCean: Thank you.  Which MySQL documentation?  I google for it, or is there man mysql?
[20:31] <kwtm2> oCean: Wait, what do you mean it's not supported here?  It's v 10.04 --it should be long-term support, no?
[20:32] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, you could try to force the deb install using "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture" be sure you have the 32bit compatibility installed however!
[20:32] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, you could try to force the deb install using "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture foo.deb" sorry
[20:32] <oCean> kwtm2: yes, there's plenty mysql documentation. I said that "if it was not installed from the repos" - meaning it's 3rd party software, then it's not supported here
[20:32] <kwtm2> oCean: My ultimate purpose is that I'm trying to do a fresh reinstallation of mythtv, but "apt-get purge mythtv" did not work (after reinstalling, it still said password was wrong)
[20:33] <kwtm2> oCean: Okay, so if it was installed from the repos, but I did not install it from the repos, what then?
[20:33] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: 32 compatibility? Please tell me about this
[20:33] <StephenWins> I've used ubuntu many times and stopped and wanna start again. I'm thinking about kubuntu, would it be much of a change? would I lose a lot of features or anything? is it less stable?
[20:33]  * yeats sighs
[20:33] <kwtm2> oCean: meaning if the installation was there by default and I had no hand in installing it?
[20:33] <oCean> kwtm2: what now?
[20:33] <oCean> kwtm2: in that case you should aks the person that did install it
[20:33] <jMCg> Hello happy people.
[20:33] <edbian> StephenWins: Ubuntu has a new interface now called Unity.
[20:33] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, i forget the ubuntu package name, try "apt-cache search ia32libs" and see if it exists
[20:34] <kwtm2> oCean: Well, I installed it from the live DVD but I don't recall it asking me for a password -- I just let it run, and it came up with a working Ubuntu system.
[20:34] <rajat123> dr_willis: how do i enable compiz? m sorry but m a beginner!
[20:34] <oCean> kwtm2: are you talking about password for ubuntu or mysql?
[20:34] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, you should verify that the package doesn't have a 64bit version before going though all this however
[20:34] <chaddy> truepurple: ia32-libs*
[20:34] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: I found this link that seems to know about this, and it doesn't seem 32bit or 64bit matters, but I am having a little bit of trouble understanding the information in this thread http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=41709.0
[20:34] <kwtm2> oCean: MySQL.   The Ubuntu installer created an EFI boot, which apparently doesn't seem to work out - while my USB stick booted just fine, the install is not booting at all.
[20:35] <orchata> Can I copy VLC player from one ubuntu to another (fresh install) both are 11.04
[20:35] <edbian> StephenWins: kubuntu isn't that.  It's ubuntu with KDE.  KDE, Gnome, Unity are different things and cannot run at the same time.  (although some say unity it built on gnome so the lines are blurry)
[20:35] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, good luck - hopefully someone else can help you.  I think installing an AV on linux is silly.
[20:36] <oCean> kwtm2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset
[20:36] <b0nghitter> is it possible to change the font size for the ubuntu server 11.04 console text?
[20:36] <alex4443> zeroburn thank you sir, you are a life saver. it worked
[20:36] <westz> this is actually becoming a serious issue, does anyone else get major lag when switching wallpapers (during the fade) and can anyone shed some light on it?
[20:36] <rajat123> dr_willis: how do i enable compiz? m sorry but m a beginner!
[20:36] <zeroburn> alex4443: haha hay no prob.. glad it worked for you.... im running CoD4 at like 50fps on my laptop running those drivers.. enjoy haha
[20:36] <ZykoticK9> rajat123, you could try "compiz --replace" from a terminal or alt+f2
[20:37] <alex4443> haha
[20:37] <westz> ZykoticK9, thats only a temporary fix, it goes away if you close the terminal. try "compiz --replace & exit"
[20:37] <sentinel2> This is my first time using Linux and I'm really impressed so far. Can someone point me to a clear guide on how to install Settlers 4? I've been trying for hours with wine, but it won't install correctly or run
[20:38] <ZykoticK9> westz, alt+f2 then???
[20:38] <zeroburn> hay all, i have a problem with SDL on my ubuntu 11.04-64bit installation, when launching kdenlive, it gives me error: "Failed to initialize SDL: No available video device"
[20:38] <acicula> sentinel the winehq site has an application database with pointers on how to get them working using wine
[20:38] <westz> sentinel2, winehq.com has the best doc you'll find
[20:38] <oCean> sentinel2: also #winehq channel
[20:38] <westz> ZykoticK9, that works too, but i almost never use alt+f2
[20:39] <ZykoticK9> !appdb | sentinel2
[20:39] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: You said to do apt-cache search ia32libs in a terminal window? When I did, nothing happened
[20:40] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, someone else suggested it was ia32-libs try searching for that
[20:40] <zeroburn> truepurple: ia32-libs... remember the hyphen..
[20:40] <ZykoticK9> zeroburn, that was my fault not truepurple's
[20:40] <rajat123> ZykoticK9: my nvidia driver shows dis message: "driver is activated but not currently in use"
[20:40] <truepurple> zeroburn: Search for it where? google?
[20:40] <acicula> orchata: best to just use the package manager for installing programs. You can copy over the installation files themselves though so you wont have to redownload the packages
[20:41] <ZykoticK9> rajat123, just ignore that message, it's a bug.  Assuming your driver is actually working.
[20:41] <zeroburn> ZykoticK9: haha.. np.. but no point in correctin you if he cant find it.. i didnt follow your conversation.. just mentioned it..
[20:41] <zeroburn> truepurple: nah.. follow ZykoticK9's advice.. i just pointed the error in syntax out..
[20:42] <rajat123> ZykoticK9: but why does 10.04 version had special effects and not d 11.04 version?
[20:42] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs"
[20:42] <truepurple> zeroburn: You mean to enter that into a terminal?
[20:42] <chrome_> where can I put a script to be executed on system startup?
[20:42] <domedagen> Anyone in here using wireless with WPA encryption?
[20:42] <chrome_> it's a mount command by the way
[20:43] <ZykoticK9> chrome_, for a mount command you should be using fstab and not a script
[20:43] <zeroburn> ZykoticK9: haha some people needs you to even point out to put a dot on the i.. lolz.. thz.. im standing back..
[20:43] <chrome_> ZykoticK9: how can I use the fstab?
[20:43] <rajat123> ZykoticK9: but why does 10.04 version had special effects and not d 11.04 version?
[20:44] <truepurple> ZykoticK9:  It said "ia32-libs is already the newest version. ia32-libs set to manually installed."
[20:44] <ZykoticK9> rajat123, i have no idea - i've never used 11.04
[20:44] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, then you have basic 32bit compatibility already - you could try the force install if you wanted
[20:44] <Zorander> chrome_, 'sudo gedit /etc/fstab' will let you edit the file
[20:44] <ZykoticK9> chrome_, /etc/fstab tells the system what to mount at boot
[20:44] <westz> chrome_, i believe it's in /etc/fstab
[20:45] <ZykoticK9> Zorander, don't use "sudo" with GUI apps!
[20:45] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: You mean "sudo dpkg -i avast4workstation_1.3.0-2_i386.deb" ?
[20:45] <chrome_> ok thanks
[20:45] <ZykoticK9> !gksudo | Zorander
[20:45] <westz> i forget, do you need to sudo when editing fstab?
[20:45] <yeats> westz: yes
[20:45] <westz> thought so
[20:45] <truepurple> westz: What don't you need sudo for :p
[20:45] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture avast4workstation_1.3.0-2_i386.deb"
[20:46] <westz> truepurple, anything that doesnt change system settings
[20:47] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: It said some things, not sure whether it installed or not, where should I look for it?
[20:48] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, ? no idea - I've never installed an AV on Linux - it's silly
[20:49] <zeroburn> truepurple: try tabbing out the name in a terminal
[20:49] <peregrinator_six> naufragoweb, boa tarde.
[20:49] <chrome_> how do I put this command as a line in fstab: sudo mount -t vboxsf <name_of_external_folder> <name_of_internal_folder>
[20:50] <truepurple> zeroburn: Tabbing out the name?
[20:50] <truepurple> ZykoticK9: That forcing thing, could any harm come to my system that way? If something installs that way, does that mean its going to work?
[20:50] <zeroburn> truepurple: start typing the name, like the first 2 or 3 letters, then press tab twice to view all the possible commands that starts with those 2 or 3 letters..
[20:51] <FireVisor> Hello there, I am having problems with nano text editor. I don't understand how to edit text. When I try to move around the text from above the row I try to navigate gets copied. Changes I do won't register. Could someone help me?
[20:51] <ZykoticK9> chrome_, ahhh I've never heard of vboxsf - but as that's not a "real" mount - perhaps fstab isn't idea, your origional script idea may be required after all...
[20:51] <zeroburn> truepurple: eg, type "ava" then press tab twice..
[20:51] <edbian> FireVisor: I think you're using vi
[20:51] <ZykoticK9> truepurple, no guarantees
[20:51] <edbian> FireVisor: which is extremely confusing
[20:51] <chrome_> So where can I put the script ZykoticK9 ?
[20:52] <FireVisor> edbian: care to elaborate on that?
[20:52] <th0r> chrome_: are you running linux in a vm?
[20:52] <ZykoticK9> chrome_, you could just add it you your users startup application i think.  I'm really not sure however.
[20:52] <edbian> FireVisor: Hwo are you starting nano ?
[20:52] <chrome_> th0r: yes why?
[20:52] <th0r> chrome_: just checking....the line you want looks like this....
[20:52] <FireVisor> edbian: nano *textfile*
[20:53] <edbian> FireVisor: then perhaps I'm wrong!  Can you explain the problem again?  nano is very straightforward
[20:53] <chrome_> th0r: I think I will use a script instead of gstab
[20:53] <chrome_> fstab*
[20:53] <th0r> VMShare    /home/user/sharedfolder    vboxsf     default    0   0
[20:53] <elkng> "universe/m/mc/" <- there are some files: ""
[20:54] <FireVisor> edbian: I move the directional button across a word. Everything on the line above it gets copied to where I move. Very strange!
[20:54] <th0r> chrome_: the first (VMShare) is the virtualbox sharename, the full path is the path to the shared folder in your users home
[20:54] <edbian> FireVisor: arrow buttons you mean?
[20:54] <FireVisor> edbian
[20:54] <FireVisor> edbian: yes
[20:54] <hiilidioksidi> Does anybody know how to fix mouse freeze in down right corner with ati drivers?
[20:54] <elkng> "universe/m/mc/" <- there are some files: "mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb" and "mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-2.debian.tar.gz" is the second one the source for this package ?
[20:54] <chrome_> th0r: will that work?
[20:55] <th0r> chrome_: I used it when I was running linux under winxp. Nowadays it is the other way around, so I haven't tried it in about six months. And with the 'new and improved' ubuntu, I won't guarantee anything <smile>
[20:55] <edbian> FireVisor: mmmm I'm not sure.  I have nano it is working normally for me.
[20:55] <Claptrap> Probably a shot in the dark, here... anyone have any experience streaming files to Wii?
[20:55] <elkng> if I want to download all packages do I have to download only *i386.deb files from all those directories ?
[20:55] <sentinel2> I think I've found something that will help run games, thank you for the help!
[20:56] <FireVisor> edbian: So, what do I do then? I have some textfiles to edit. Thanks for answering.
[20:56] <vlt_phone> Any idea how to run a program that runs on an X server in a window that stays always on top of others?
[20:56] <chrome_> th0r: ok thanks :)
[20:56] <vlt_phone> What window manager do I need?
[20:56] <ZykoticK9> elkng, you might also need the *all.deb files as well
[20:56] <edbian> FireVisor: use gedit instead? gksudo gedit /path/to/file  ?
[20:57] <domedagen> WPA connection anyone?
[20:57] <th0r> chrome_: if you put that in fstab you do not have to reboot to test. Just type 'sudo mount VMShare' and if the line is good the share will mount
[20:57] <chrome_> I already rebooted :x
[20:57] <th0r> chrome_: I should write more complete explanations <smile>
[20:57] <ZykoticK9> domedagen, you might need the wpasupplicant package - but WPA worked OOTB for me
[20:58] <chrome_> no problem :D
[20:58] <elkng> what command I can use to get list of all packages ?
[20:59] <FireVisor> edbian: I don't have gedit... How do i get it...?
[20:59] <edbian> FireVisor: is this a server?
[20:59] <Myrtti> elkng: all packages... in what sense? all available packages? all installed packages?
[20:59] <edbian> FireVisor: ubuntu 11.04 ?
[21:00] <elkng> I want to have local copy of repo of i386 packages, is there easy way to do this rather then "wget" ?
[21:00] <io> !info gedit | FireVisor
[21:00] <elkng> Myrtti: all packages that I can install
[21:00] <Babu> Hello
[21:00] <FireVisor> edbian: Yes, it's a server. I don't recall
[21:00] <FireVisor> edbian: My friend set it up, so it's very light...
[21:00] <edbian> FireVisor: gedit is graphical so that won't work.
[21:01] <edbian> FireVisor: what version of Ubuntu is this?
[21:01] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: It works but it is unstable as hell
[21:01] <FireVisor> edbian: know a command on how to check?
[21:01] <io> !version | FireVisor
[21:01] <edbian> FireVisor: cat /etc/issue
[21:02] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: I'll try that supplicant thing
[21:02] <io> FireVisor: do you have past experience with nano to know what you would expect? maybe what you're saying is wrong isn't actually wrong
[21:02] <ZykoticK9> domedagen, wireless in general depends heavily on the driver - some are much better then others.  Best of luck.
[21:02] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: But can you tell me what card you are using so that I can buy the same?
[21:02] <FireVisor> io: I have a brief past experience... I can't really expect a simple program to work this way.
[21:03] <ZykoticK9> domedagen, it's built into my EEEpc, so that's not really an option ;)
[21:03] <jMCg> !info efi
[21:03] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: :(
[21:03] <io> FireVisor: unusual, did you try re-installing the package? maybe something is corrupt
[21:03] <Yoren> anyone know how to enable a vpn I configured inside gnome from the command line? I'm working remotely and i think it's off
[21:03] <jMCg> Anyone know anything about EFI boot?
[21:03] <oCean> elkng: are you sure you want to mirror the complete repositories?
[21:04] <szal> !anyone | jMCg
[21:04] <chrome_> th0r: it didn't accept the default option, so I changed to 'rw,exec'
[21:04] <th0r> chrome_: well, it has been a while, and like I said...the new ubuntu might have changed it a bit
[21:05] <th0r> chrome_: and it might have been 'defaults'.....in old age the memory goes right after something else, but I can't remember what that is
[21:05] <FireVisor> io: No, I haven't... I must apologize... I need a lot of baby sitting with this. What would the command be if I wanted to reinstall nano?
[21:06] <edbian> FireVisor: sudo apt-get purge nano   sudo apt-get install nano   (one command removes)
[21:06] <io> FireVisor: '$ sudo apt-get purge nano; sudo apt-get install nano'
[21:06] <chrome_> no prob :)=
[21:06] <Diverdude> when doing chmod i can enter e.g. 777 for user,group and others. What is others?
[21:06] <felipe__> alguem BR?
[21:06] <oCean> !br | felipe__
[21:06] <edbian> Diverdude: Any combination of 124567   (I don't think 3 is anything...)
[21:06] <ZykoticK9> Diverdude, Other is everyone not user owner, or user group - so "everyone else"
[21:06] <edbian> oh and 0
[21:06] <Diverdude> ZykoticK9, ahh okay
[21:07] <Diverdude> thx
[21:07] <sawe_> where can I find the X1186config file in ubuntu system I need that badly the file with refresh rate and screen dimentions
[21:07] <io> !x | sawe_
[21:07] <ZykoticK9> sawe_, you're looking for xorg.conf - it's not there by default - you need to create one (IF you need one)
[21:08] <elkng> oCean: I dont want the entire repo, there are many files of no use for me like if there are files: ""mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1.debian.tar.gz , mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1.dsc, mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_amd64.deb, mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb, mc_<IP_ADDRESS>.orig.tar.gz", I need only "mc_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb", maybe there are some DVD's like 8 DVD for debian, where I can just download them for later use ?
[21:09] <sawe_> nob xorg does not cosist of what i am looking for
[21:09] <elkng> I want to have all *i386.deb for all packages for later use
[21:09] <ZykoticK9> elkng, as i said before, you probably want *_all.deb as well.
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> elkng, BUT your idea is kinda silly.
[21:10] <df3w> new hack tools on www.team3d.3xforum.ro exploit,scan,ssh etc.
[21:10] <oCean> elkng: have a look at apt-mirror
[21:11] <elkng> oCean: "apt-mirror" <- where is it ?
[21:11] <ZykoticK9> df3w, don't paste that "crap" here
[21:11] <io> !info apt-mirror | elkng
[21:11] <df3w> new hack tools on www.team3d.3xforum.ro exploit,scan,ssh etc.
[21:11] <FireVisor> io: Didn't help me... Could you maybe describe how to actually edit things in nano?
[21:11] <elkng> ZykoticK9: "*_all.deb" <- what are those for ?
[21:11] <oCean> elkng: if you want to act your locally stored repository, you have to use the exact same structure as the original repositories. Not a selection of those files.
[21:12] <ZykoticK9> elkng, it's packages used by all architectures
[21:12] <oCean> elkng: apt-mirror is in the repositories. See http://www.howtoforge.com/local_debian_ubuntu_mirror for example

[21:12] <cpruitt> I would really appreciate any insight.  I've got an ubuntu box that just completely crashes every several days.  It'll be fine for 3 days or seven days or whatever, and then become completely unresponsive.  I'm at a loss as to how to even troubleshoot.  I THINK I should be looking at /var/log/messages but most of this isn't making much sense to me and I'm not sure what other logs to check.  Is there a /var/reason_your_box_locked_up log
[21:12] <cpruitt> somewhere?
[21:12] <io> FireVisor: ok so initially you want to open or create a file, either way it's '$ nano <file>'
[21:13] <vvvkumar12> hey! all
[21:13] <ZykoticK9> cpruitt, /var/log/messages is your best bet
[21:13] <cpruitt> ZykoticK9: Thanks.  Is there anything specific that indicates a log at a point of crashing by any chance?
[21:14] <cpruitt> This is our fourth install, second Linux distro and second complete set of hardware that's doing this. Nothing special installed (apache / Mysql / etc...).  I'm just at my wits end.
[21:14] <ZykoticK9> cpruitt, look for where the log "starts" again, on boot - then check what happened just before that
[21:14] <FireVisor> io: yes, I opened a file... and then move around with arrow keys... edit text... press ctrl+o save file? Should be easy right?
[21:15] <vvvkumar12> cn ne bdy help me on hw 2 upgrade to 11 version  using cd
[21:16] <ZykoticK9> !u | vvvkumar12 i know you didn't use "u" but you get the idea
[21:17] <cpruitt> ZykoticK9: That's kind of what I'd thought to do, but in this case it's weird.  The last log entry before the last book was like 9 hours before at a time well before when I know the box was still up and responding.
[21:17] <cpruitt> And the only thing recorded was "Jul  2 06:51:26 linhost01 rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="711" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, typ

[21:18] <ZykoticK9> cpruitt, sorry, I don't have any other suggestions.  Best of luck.
[21:18] <cpruitt> Yeah, well, thanks for the thoughts
[21:18] <Yoren> how is the vpn desktop configuration thingy in gnome/ubuntu called and where can i find some documentation?
[21:18] <cpruitt> I appreciate you being willing to help
[21:18] <jo-erlend> I've borked my desktopcouch. Can someone help restore it? I wanted to reset them on three machines, so I deleted ~/.local/share/desktop-couch/, ~/.cache/desktop-couch/ and ~/.config/desktop-couch/. Now I cannot log into my desktopcouch. What do I do?
[21:19] <Yoren> it's part of network settings i guess
[21:19] <andrd> Hi i have my pics on a external disk and want to use fspot to organize, can i use the same tags etc on other ubi machines?
[21:20] <ZykoticK9> Yoren, you probably want to research network-manager
[21:20] <th0r> jo-erlend: can't you just copy them back out of the trash?
[21:20] <Yoren> thanks ZykoticK9
[21:20] <jo-erlend> th0r, rm -Rf doesn't have any trash.
[21:20] <th0r> jo-erlend: right. It is always a good idea to move such things into a temp location and make sure you don't need them, rather than removing them
[21:21] <jo-erlend> th0r, I know that. It doesn't help.
[21:21] <FireVisor> io: Thanks for the help... resolved the problem as illogically as it was percieved. Somethings very strange with my nano though.
[21:21] <th0r> jo-erlend: can you reinstall the couch? or is that an integral part of the new ubuntu?
[21:21] <vvvkumar12> @zykotick9 i really appreciate your words but that's not my question
[21:22] <jo-erlend> th0r, it's been a default database in ubuntu for some time. It's not new in 11.04.
[21:23] <vvvkumar12> @zykotick9 help me if you know  how  to upgrade using live bootable cd
[21:23] <ZykoticK9> vvvkumar12, and i would be tempted to explain you need an AlternateCD to use a CD for upgrade, but you initial net-"english" question turned me off answering
[21:25] <vvvkumar12> @zykotick9 what initial net ???english
[21:26] <ZykoticK9> vvvkumar12, what is this "cn ne bdy help me on hw 2 upgrade to 11 version  using cd" - that's NOT english
[21:27] <Furry> How can I remove a shortcut from the Applications menu in gnome?
[21:27] <ActionParsnip> Furry: use alacarte
[21:27] <vvvkumar12> @zykotick9 oh !!! that means can any body help me on how to upgrade to 11 version using cd
[21:27] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | vvvkumar12
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> vvvkumar12: remember, you cannot jump releases
[21:28] <ZykoticK9> !tab | vvvkumar12 and you don't need to use @ in IRC, this isn't twitter/identic.ca
[21:33] <Soothsayer> is this the right place to ask a KDE specific question?
[21:33] <oCean> Soothsayer: there is a specific #kubuntu channel
[21:34] <Soothsayer> well, I didn't realy get the entire distro. Just installed KDE as a Desktop environment.
[21:34] <oCean> Soothsayer: I was just sayin'
[21:36] <bobbyjoex> hi
[21:36] <bobbyjoex> anybody here ?
[21:36] <bobbyjoex> dimas
[21:36] <dimas_> i am here
[21:36] <Soothsayer> bobbyjoex, go ahead. ask your query.
[21:36] <dimas_> lol
[21:36] <bobbyjoex> dimas indonesian ?
[21:37] <dimas_> !ask
[21:37] <oCean> !id | bobbyjoex
[21:37] <Yoren> what i gather is that nmcli for the network manager applet is basically unavailable for 10.04. but I'm not sure. Anyone managed to get nmcli working under 10.04
[21:38] <bobbyjoex> hi, why my gwibber only works for my twitter account . not for my facebook
[21:39] <dimas_> how is it posible i have the speakers as input device and the mics as output devices?  in jack
[21:39] <bobbyjoex> huh ?
[21:40] <jabba_> if one has a cpu with aes-ni instruction set should one encrypt in aes with or without xts?
[21:40] <jabba_> regarding performance
[21:40] <Yoren> bobbyjoex: facebook has been blocking some linux programs for some reason, maybe gwibber is one of them?
[21:40] <Yoren> only recently begun doing it
[21:40] <bobbyjoex> Yoren: maybe ..
[21:41] <guntbert> jabba_: I cannot see how that is an ubuntu support question
[21:41] <Babu> huh dimas
[21:41] <jabba_> guntbert, i am using luks in my ubuntu system :)
[21:42] <dimas_> how come i have the speakers as input devices and the mics as out put devices in Qjackctl visual interface?
[21:42] <mnewton> Hi - I want to know if there is a way to download Joomla directly to my server without first downloading it to my computer and then using ftp to upload it to my server?
[21:42] <codex84> is it possible to convert mpeg,or avi to hd quality
[21:42] <vlt_phone> mnewton: ssh access?
[21:42] <codex84> with a encoder
[21:43] <mnewton> vlt_phone: No ssh
[21:43] <ActionParsnip> mnewton: could wgetthe debs directly from packages.ubuntu.com
[21:43] <vlt_phone> mnewton: then put a php file there that downloads and unzips it and run that
[21:44] <io> mnewton: what is the reason you don't have ssh? is this shared web hosting or something?
[21:44] <sentinel2> I just wanted to thank everyone for the help, I got it to work with PlayOnLinux and working with my cd drive
[21:44] <mnewton> ActionParsnip: no shell no sudo
[21:44] <mnewton> io: yes - shared and free
[21:44] <sentinel2> Now that I know how to put a game on here, I'm happy as a clam and can put more on :D
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> mnewton: then what access DO you have?
[21:45] <io> mnewton: does your host have something like Fantastico or Installatron?
[21:45] <[THC]AcidRain> when im trying to run a test irc bot script i found on a ubuntu site. i get this error:
[21:45] <[THC]AcidRain> Can't locate Net/IRC.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at test.pl line 1.

[21:45] <[THC]AcidRain> sorry :(
[21:45] <io> [THC]AcidRain: install Net::IRC
[21:45] <mnewton> vlt_phone: how do i make this script - all the scripts i've found are for downloading files from my server to my computer. I tried using php shell_exec and wget but that didn't work - shell_exec not allowed
[21:45] <[THC]AcidRain> so how would i install this? its not a normal aptitude install...
[21:46] <[THC]AcidRain> i honestly dont know anything about perl. and i would like to start learning with this script
[21:46] <mnewton> ActionParsnip: I have ftp - that's about it. I'm using 000webhost
[21:46] <io> [THC]AcidRain: '$ perl -mcpan -e 'install Net::IRC'
[21:46] <vlt_phone> mnewton: fopen()
[21:46] <io> mnewton: then no
[21:47] <io> mnewton: your host has Autoinstaller, don't they offer Joomla?
[21:48] <mnewton> io: autoinstaller is down vlt_phone: thanks i'll try that
[21:48] <lobo29> Looking for help getting dellfand working,  I get an error when I run Make.  The website says to fix by putting #include <sys/stat.h> in dellfand.cc ?
[21:48] <oCean> [THC]AcidRain: #perl is a much more appropriate channel to ask about how-to-learn perl
[21:49] <lobo29> I guess those should be variables I should enter, but no idea what to put there
[21:49] <Maestr055> evening
[21:49] <oCean> lobo29: maybe try a programming channel?
[21:49] <io> oCean: sure, but that's a simple question that recieved a simple answer
[21:49] <Maestr055> is it possible to set a hotkey to start/run/display a certain program/file/folder?
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> mnewton:  then you'll need to download to your system to then upload, you have limited access an you'll need to work around it
[21:49] <i2iot> I FREAKING LOVE UBUNTU
[21:50] <i2iot> just put it on my macbook pro
[21:50] <i2iot> eat that apple
[21:50] <oCean> io: indeed. But that does not mean it's the last question. For further questions a specific perl channel is the right place to ask
[21:50] <rakathan> i2iot, you already lost by paying for their hardware
[21:50] <[THC]AcidRain> io: when i typed that into terminal, it went to a ">"
[21:50] <io> mnewton: one day you will learn that if you want quality and flexibility then paid hosting is better
[21:50] <[THC]AcidRain> which appeared to do nothing...
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> i2iot: yeah they sold you an OS and hardware and now they don't have to support you..yeah you showed them
[21:50] <Maestr055> i2iot: http://sourceforge.net/projects/macbuntu/ ;)
[21:51] <i2iot> lol
[21:51] <[THC]AcidRain> also, when i type just "perl" it seems to lock up
[21:51] <i2iot> i got this $2000 computer for $250
[21:51] <i2iot> my dell cost more
[21:51] <i2iot> the cd drive went out and the lcd was busted
[21:51] <oCean> i2iot: do you have a support question? chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:51] <io> [THC]AcidRain: did you remove the ' at the start and end as well as the $?
[21:51] <Maestr055> can I set a hotkey to a certain program?
[21:51] <i2iot> no i just wanted to say that ubuntu was awesome
[21:51] <[THC]AcidRain> io: yes sir i did
[21:52] <i2iot> this may be a dumb question, but can i get ms office on ubuntu
[21:52] <io> [THC]AcidRain: ok then can you take this to #perl who can help you further as '$ perl -mcpan -e 'install Net::IRC'' is the correct command?
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> i2iot: you may be able to with wine
[21:53] <io> oCean: sure :-)
[21:53] <BluesKaj> !libreoffice | i2iot
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> i2iot: check the appdb, ubuntu ships with libreoffice
[21:53] <BluesKaj> !info libreoffice | i2iot
[21:53] <[THC]AcidRain> sudo apt-get install libnet-irc-perl
[21:54] <i2iot> yeah i noticed libreoffice but didn't play around
[21:54] <i2iot> i work with tables a lot and the formatting is rarely preserved on other editors
[21:55] <i2iot> i am really nervous to plug in my storage drive onto this computer because on Mint once it destroyed 5 years of saved photos
[21:55] <io> [THC]AcidRain: that's an alternative method, some prefer using apt-get and some prefer using mcpan
[21:55] <io> [THC]AcidRain: did that work ok for you?
[21:56] <TSG> hey
[21:57] <Yoren> any way to scroll the screen in a remote x gnome-session that doesn't fit my screen on this end?
[21:57] <BluesKaj> i2iot, just plugging in an outboard drive won't destroy the data on it
[21:58] <xota> hi! I
[21:59] <anis> hello
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> i2iot: thats why backup is good :D
[22:00] <anis> i have a problem: gparted and ubuntu installer both don't recognize my raid setup
[22:01] <io> !raid | anis
[22:01] <anis> ok, i'll read it. thanks
[22:02] <xota> I have two laptops one with broadcom wifi and another with atheros and with broadcom I always can download 2x velocity at least! the bit rade at atheros is 135M and the bit rate at broadcome is 65. any help please? sometimes is impossible to navigate with the atheros cardd
[22:02] <Maestr055> http://www.debian-administration.org/article/611/Creating_global_keyboard_shortcuts_in_GNOME (just so you know)
[22:02] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: Googled around a lot and found a page USB sticks which according to the author run well on Linux. Going to buy D-Link DWA-140 and Belkin 300 tomorrow and try my luck with them
[22:03] <xavi> hi
[22:03] <xavi> ive downloaded wubi.exe
[22:03] <ZykoticK9> domedagen, good luck!
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> xota: which atheros?
[22:03] <xota> ActionParsnip: AR9285
[22:03] <xavi> and after i reboot the computer all i see is the opening screen(pink-purple) and the cursor
[22:03] <xavi> why is that:S
[22:03] <sinetific> how come every time I modify a desktop shortcut in unity it reverts back after its used?
[22:03] <domedagen> ZykoticK9: TY! And ty responding as well. Going to bed now good night
[22:04] <AndChat> Pc suddenly extremely slow both ubuntu and Windows, (dual) think its hardware related. Any guess?
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> xota: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/773154
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> AndChat: i'd test RAM
[22:05] <mahir256> xavi: what os are you using?
[22:05] <xavi> ?
[22:05] <mahir256> xavi: what os are you using?
[22:05] <xota> ActionParsnip: thanks. I will read it
[22:05] <AndChat> ActionParsnip already ruled out RAM with test. Could it be a hd error?
[22:06] <j3roth> Is there a good gui interface for managing and configuring apache2?
[22:06] <AndChat> ActionParsnip, CPU is 100% in Ubuntu and win7 on the machine
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> AndChat: possibly, you can boot to livecD and test. You may also want to grab the ultimate boot cd and test the drive wit the manufacturers tool
[22:06] <iniesta6> hi
[22:07] <iniesta6> ive downloaded wubi.exe to install ubuntu from windows
[22:07] <ok_wait> hi all, is there a way to change the title bar in programs (gnome) to the command one would enter in a cli?
[22:07] <mahir256> j3roth: try http://netloony.sf.net/
[22:07] <xota> ActionParsnip: I'm going to reboot to test with the backports, I will say you something after that, thank you again!
[22:07] <j3roth> mahir256: thanks.
[22:07] <iniesta6> after i reboot my computer and choose ubuntu option all i get is the open screen(pink-purple) and the cursor
[22:08] <anis> i skimmed thorugh these webpages. none relate to my problem as far as i can see. they deal with creating new raid arrays. i'd like gparted and ubuntu to recognize an already existing raid0 array, which they dont.
[22:08] <iniesta6> why is that please
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: what video chip do you use?
[22:08] <iniesta6> nvidia
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: log in to the Ubuntu Classic desktop, then install the proprietary driver
[22:09] <iniesta6> k ill search this option
[22:09] <iniesta6> tyvm
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: you need 3D accelleration to get Unity to show
[22:10] <Yoren> super, gnome-session over remote x on cygwin doesn't work well enough to push the enable vpn button on the network manager applet
[22:11] <AndChat> What is kworker/1:2
[22:11] <anis> why doesn't ubuntu recognise the partition table on my raid0 array?
[22:13] <randomseed> AndChat, maybe its Obama's new worker to pay for healthcare
[22:13] <AndChat> Wish it was....
[22:14] <sudipta> how to install the latest version of eclipse ide from repo(any ppa?)?
[22:14] <randomseed> AndChat, I saw that process also and wondered also...........
[22:15] <droogmic> #ubuntu-cloud
[22:15] <AndChat> Randomseed, my laptop is on 100% CPU on nix and windows and live cd..
[22:16] <sudipta> how to install the latest version of eclipse ide from repo(any ppa?)?
[22:16] <randomseed> AndChat, what does top say?
[22:16] <BernardV> AndChat: Cooling problem? Some CPU's will downclock themselfs to very poor performance and then a 100% load could be achieved.
[22:17] <AndChat> Just that, couple of processes and maxed CPU
[22:17] <shiftingcontrol> my pendrive is not getting detected after using dd and unet fewtimes
[22:17] <AndChat> Bernardv, according to sensors its fine
[22:17] <BernardV> AndChat: Then I assume that's true
[22:18] <AndChat> Unity panel eats a lot, and xorg
[22:18] <AndChat> But it also happens on windows
[22:18] <BernardV> AndChat: Nothing in the logfiles (dmesg etc) with faulty hardware? USB, PCI etc?
[22:18] <sudipta> how to install the latest version of eclipse ide from repo(any ppa?)?
[22:19] <i2iot> is there a shortcut for the text editor
[22:19] <randomseed> AndChat, does Winders max out with no cd running
[22:19] <AndChat> Bernardv, opening log file viewer now. All started this afternoon. Came back and found freezes pc
[22:20] <AndChat> Winders?
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | sudipta
[22:20] <BernardV> AndChat: What kind of CPU do you have?
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> i2iot: you can make one in keyboard settings
yeah....which ppa
[22:20] <randomseed> AndChat, er... Windows
[22:20] <AndChat> 2.2 ghz dual
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> sudipta: the link has a SEARCH box, you can find it using that
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> sudipta: try reading
[22:21] <mnewton> vlt_phone: Thanks dude - I ended up uploading the file with filezilla and then extracting it with a unzip script.
[22:21] <AndChat> Windows dual boot, also 100% CPU, and slow. Without cd. Ubuntu live takes 3 hours to get to install screen
[22:22] <pat201> can someone give me a basic idea of what GUI files are?
[22:22] <AndChat> Gmbus timed out
[22:23] <AndChat> Nak bailout in kern.log
[22:23] <xota> ActionParsnip: with the solution at launchpad bug doesn't work, but creating the file /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf with the content: options ath9k nohwcrypt=1
[22:23] <randomseed> AndChat, cueing off what BenardV said, a cdrom dev running would-could add heat
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> xota: well it is a known bug, you should state it affects you too and watch for the resolve (or try and find one yourself)
[22:23] <xota> it works for me... I don't know if deactivate the hwcrytp is a good thing or not, but...  If so try running with one, if still 100% load, try the other. Bad mem can do many strange things.
[22:25] <BernardV> AndChat: What kind of errors?
[22:25] <AndChat> Bernardv in kern.log : i915 : hangcheck timer elapsed
[22:25] <AndChat> Gmbus timed out
[22:26] <BernardV> AndChat: i915 is the videocard right?
[22:26] <AndChat> Yes
[22:27] <BernardV> Can you change some settings in the bios for that card? Like running in basic VGA mode etc?
[22:27] <BernardV> That's worth checking out if the problem still exists
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> xota: you can install a caching proxy and/or dnsmasq   you can also add this to /etc/sysctl.conf    then run:  sudo sysctl -p    http://paste.ubuntu.com/637109/
[22:27] <AndChat> Hmm, could try. But prob also happens on windows so its not driver related.
[22:28] <Enverex> Is there a channel for the official ATi drivers other than #ati? (which appears to be pretty dead these days)
[22:29] <BernardV> AndChat: I also don't think it's driver related, bricked video maybe.. but if you can run in legacy mode (or something like that) maybe you can use the computer and get it fixed.
[22:30] <BernardV> AndChat: i915 is sandy bridge?
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> xota: if you use firefox there are tweaks in about:config   to make the browser not suck so much
[22:30] <AndChat> Bernardv no, its not.
[22:31] <BernardV> AndChat: ok..
[22:31] <randomseed> AndChat, yeah, that eliminates lots of stuff but also lets you look for a common denominator like hardware
[22:31] <AndChat> Having a hard time browsing log files. It's slow
[22:31] <LUxe> Meh. I dont' know anything about what you guys are talking about ;/
[22:31] <AndChat> Legacy mode in bios?
[22:31] <n0kS> guys do you know of any music player that does NOT read tags from songs?
[22:31] <shiftingcontrol> I want to boot archlinux using liveusb ,when I try to boot ,it enters grub mode kernel (hd0,10)/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda11 i normally give for noramal boot what should i give for usb ?
[22:32] <th0r> n0kS: the play command from sox, and i think mpg123
[22:32] <BernardV> AndChat: I don't know what kind of video options you have in the bios.. It's an onboard card so maybe you can disable 3d for example.
[22:32] <AndChat> I will disable it
[22:32] <n0kS> th0r any GUI (as it's for someone very newbie)
[22:33] <BernardV> AndChat: Or maybe change the shared mem... could still be a mem problem ;)
[22:33] <th0r> n0kS: what diff if it reads them? I use vlc for playing audio and what little it displays is barely noticeable
[22:33] <AndChat> Tested mem and hd already
[22:33] <BernardV> AndChat: ok
[22:33] <AndChat> With memcheck
[22:34] <n0kS> th0r I've had bad experiences with loading 30k songs into a player that reads tags; did that 3 times - had to buy new hdd
[22:35] <AndChat> No .fx card option in bios :(
[22:35] <th0r> n0kS: well, I don't have that many, but I do nornally run a playlist of 200-300 without any problems. I dont' think vlc reads the tags until it starts playing the song
[22:35] <BernardV> n0kS: That was a bad HDD ;)
[22:35] <n0kS> BernardV you mean 2 bad HDDs actually...
[22:35] <fng> evenin guys. - "No root file system is defined" error - I used the wubi installer on windows, picked a partition it apparently didn't take, the forums suggest a partition management stuff ... isnt that what wubi is supposed to take care of?
[22:35] <n0kS> th0r yeah, even 1000, there's no prob, but when you do that with 30-40-50k songs, it's noticable.....
[22:35] <BernardV> AndChat: That s*cks
[22:36] <westz> chrome_, i'll  link you to a good documentation on building an fstab, gimme a sec
[22:36] <BernardV> n0kS: I have around 25k songs and never had problems..
[22:36] <westz> oh sh*t nvm i was scrolled WAY up lol
[22:36]  * ActionParsnip uses spotify and has zero issues :)
[22:36] <n0kS> BernardV you're a luky guy I suppose : )
[22:36] <n0kS> lucky*
[22:37] <chrome_> westz: no need to. I have my problem sorted out
[22:37] <BernardV> ActionParsnip: :D I use that too ;)
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> no need for local media
[22:37] <westz> chrome_, yeah i was scrolled waaaay up there didnt notice we were past that
[22:37] <BernardV> n0kS: You could also use something like mt-daapd to stream the songs, it will scan only once..
[22:37] <AndChat> Bernard, could do strestest on CPU in terminal mode...
[22:38] <westz> but for future reference for modifying fstab and mtab, or autostart, reference the arch wiki. it's great for things like that, it's how i learned most of what i know about *nics
[22:38] <westz> **nix
[22:38] <BernardV> AndChat: That would be a nice test.. Boot in terminal mode and see if you still have 100% CPU
[22:38] <chrome_> ok :)
[22:39] <n0kS> BernardV as it's not for me, but for a newbie guy, I need something very very simple for him... on winblows you can configure winamp to display your songs as "${filename}" and doesn't read tags from files, but on audacious, for example, when I set it only to ${filename} it continues reading them... and that's annoying :\
[22:39] <AndChat> Bernardv, could outrule CPU
[22:39] <BernardV> AndChat: Indeed
[22:40] <i2iot> How can I add a web shortcut to my launcher?
[22:40] <i2iot> Have you guys heard of ADrive
[22:40] <i2iot> 50GB free cloud storage
[22:40] <i2iot> no desktop client though, all web based
[22:40] <westz> i2iot, dont flood.
[22:40] <i2iot> sorry
[22:41] <th0r> i2iot: don't think I want to put 50GB of personal stuff on a server in Uzbekistan
[22:41] <BernardV> n0kS: firefly (mt-daapd) isn't that difficult and if I'm correct audacious, xmms etc have daap plugins
[22:41] <user_> witam
[22:42] <westz> anyway, i'm pretty sure you just do "firefox webpageasanargument.com" but there might be another argument you need to put there
[22:42] <AndChat> failsafe graphic mode a good idea
[22:42] <user_> hello
[22:42] <BernardV> AndChat: Yeah
[22:42] <BernardV> AndChat: No.. sorry
[22:42] <BernardV> AndChat: Just terminal, failsafe graphics is the second step.. if terminal isn't running at 100%
[22:43] <tigerplug292> hey everyone,
[22:43] <tkruise> what the heck, I got VIM through software center and it isnt appearing on applications/acessories like it used to
[22:43] <tigerplug292> I have purchased a new hard drive for my laptop and an external enclosure. Wondering the best way to transfer my current install onto this new drive via external enclosure before installing in laptop?
[22:45] <fng> wubi.exe installation produced "No root file system is defined" error. Forums have given a partition fix. Isnt there a way to fix this without messing with gpartd?
[22:46] <AndChat> Bernardv, CPU is low in terminal and high again in .fx safe mode
[22:47] <BernardV> AndChat: I think you have a faulty videocard
[22:47] <AndChat> And its onboard so that means new mb
[22:47] <BernardV> AndChat: Indeed
[22:48] <BernardV> AndChat: How old is the system?
[22:48] <AndChat> What would be the ultimate test to confirm this?
[22:48] <AndChat> 4 years exactly
[22:48] <i2iot> cant believe how easy it is to network between a windows 7 computer
[22:48] <BernardV> AndChat: That's a shame.. The ultimate test.. I wouldn't know sorry
[22:50] <chrome_> how can I undo these steps: http://www.techsww.com/tutorials/libraries/zlib/installation/installing_zlib_on_ubuntu_linux.php
[22:51] <VolodymyrB> 11.04 a worst version which i use, problems at any steps what are you doing, is it test before relise?
[22:52] <itaylor57> chrome_, sudo make uninstall
[22:52] <sferry> dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 9532 package 'cups-client':
[22:52] <sferry>  field name `Priorityz' must be followed by colon
[22:52] <sferry> any ideas?
[22:52] <n0kS> VolodymyrB hahahahahahaha, welcome to ubuntu distro :)
[22:52] <BigDaddyDuergar> I'm trying to use the software center while connected to the internet, and it keeps telling to me check my connection. Fully updated ubuntu 11.4
[22:52] <VolodymyrB> now i am on windows, but i also cant run console
[22:53] <UserX7> ubuntu 10.04. why isn't resolv.conf remember settings after reboot?
[22:53] <n0kS> UserX7 make a file resolv.conf.head and put your settings there
[22:53] <VolodymyrB> i only install it via windows (cd still not works)
[22:54] <UserX7> n0kS: in what dir?
[22:54] <n0kS> UserX7 in the same dir as resolv.conf (/etc)
[22:56] <fng> wubi.exe installation produced "No root file system is defined" error. Forums have given a partition fix. Isnt there a way to fix this without messing with gpartd?
[22:56] <sw0rdfish> hey guys is there a gui like Download Manager in windows
[22:56] <sw0rdfish> for linux?
[22:56] <sw0rdfish> I need to resume a cut off download :)
[22:57] <edbian> sw0rdfish: There are addons in firefox
[22:57] <sw0rdfish> oh :O
[22:57] <sw0rdfish> i'm googling "firefox resume addon"
[22:58] <tigerplug292> I have purchased a new hard drive for my laptop and an external enclosure. Wondering the best way to transfer my current install onto this new drive via external enclosure before installing in laptop?
[22:58] <VolodymyrB> and windows install create me user so that its displays different on login screen and unity, which totaly crushed two times after few minutes(
[22:58] <io> !info gwget | sw0rdfish
[22:58] <th0r> tigerplug292: if you can mount the external, dd can copy the internal to it
[22:58] <edbian> sw0rdfish: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=download+manager&cat=all&x=0&y=0
[22:58] <BigDaddyDuergar> I'm trying to use the software center while connected to the internet, and it keeps telling to me check my connection. Fully updated ubuntu 11.4. Any ideas?
[22:58] <tigerplug292> th0r, dd ?
[22:58] <io> hm, ignore that I guess - depending on your ubuntu version
[22:59] <westz> BigDaddyDuergar, reboot?
[22:59] <BigDaddyDuergar> westz did that. same error.
[22:59] <th0r> tigerplug292: assuming the internal is /dev/sda, and the external is /dev/sdb, I think it is simply 'dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb'. I hope someone else will chime in if that is wrong
[22:59] <sw0rdfish> io I'm on Maverick :)
[22:59] <chrome_> how can I move a directory through command line "mv -R ..." is not working
[22:59] <tigerplug292> thanks th0r  :-)
[22:59] <westz> make sure you're authenticated in-browser. can you load a new web page?
[22:59] <sw0rdfish> I found it with Software Center io thanks and thank you edbian too :)
[23:00] <itaylor57> BigDaddyDuergar, it might be the url you are using for your mirror
[23:00] <BigDaddyDuergar> i haven't changed anything. Where can I find the url?
[23:00] <westz> BigDaddyDuergar, can you install with syaptic??
[23:00] <BigDaddyDuergar> westz what is syaptic?
[23:00] <BernardV> th0r: That should work.
[23:00] <mneptok> chrome_: mv with no arguments
[23:00] <itaylor57> BigDaddyDuergar, Settings in update manager
[23:01] <th0r> BernardV: I have my moments <smile>
[23:01] <westz> BigDaddyDuergar, open your administration menu, its Synaptic Package Manager
[23:01] <BigDaddyDuergar> itaylor57, update manager or in the software center? I updated fine, it's the sofware center that's failing
[23:01] <BernardV> tigerplug292: I think you could also create a new partition scheme on the external drive if you want to change it and the do like th0r said, but use the actual partitions like sda1 etc
[23:01] <itaylor57> BigDaddyDuergar, sorry i misread
[23:02] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: wget can resume
[23:02] <BigDaddyDuergar> westz, synaptic works
[23:02] <westz> BigDaddyDuergar, if you can install with synaptic, it's ubuntu software center thats failing, if not, it's higher up
[23:03] <b1g1r0n> anyone have any thoughts on why "Ctrl + Alt + T" shortcut would not work? It's set in the keyboard shortcuts, and I don't see anything related in startup apps...
[23:03] <fng> wubi.exe installation produced "No root file system is defined" error. Forums have given a partition fix. Isnt there a way to fix this without messing with gpartd?
[23:03] <westz> ok then your mirrors are fine, somethings wrong with your USC
[23:03] <BigDaddyDuergar> westz, apt-get works just fine too. that's how I installed xchat. How do I reinstall the software center?
[23:03] <westz> BigDaddyDuergar, not sure, never had to. google it
[23:04] <mneptok> BigDaddyDuergar: create another user account and see if that user can successfully use USC
[23:05] <sw0rdfish> mneptok I see.
[23:05] <sw0rdfish> mneptok what arguments does it need to resume a file
[23:06] <akikara> hi all
[23:06] <BernardV> sw0rdfish: -c
[23:06] <BigDaddyDuergar> mneptok, i'll have to try that later. I have to go pick up my kids here soon. Thank you for the info.
[23:06] <akikara> any body knows where to find caonical image of ubuntu for asus eeepc 1001pxd
[23:06] <akikara> ?
[23:07] <ka_> I am having trouble with my wireless internet.  Is there anyone who could help me?
[23:07] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: -C
[23:07] <i2iot> what format do icons for new loaders have to be?
[23:07] <westz> ka_ depends on what your problem is. shoot
[23:07] <fng> no wubi.exe install help?
[23:07] <sw0rdfish> small or capital C?
[23:07] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: capital
[23:08] <BernardV> mneptok: hmmm.. "-c,  --continue                resume getting a partially-downloaded file."
[23:08] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: gah. lower case.
[23:08] <ka_> westz- Whenever I boot my computer my wireless is off and I need to enter the command sudo modprobe b43 and it turns on.  but every so often I lose the connection and II can't reconnect (the wireless card is still working but it won't connect to my network)
[23:08]  * mneptok had to grep his ~/.zsh_history
[23:08] <sw0rdfish> hehe
[23:08] <sw0rdfish> cool thanks guys I'm trying it out
[23:09] <tigerplug292> BernardV, makes sense - I'll try that :-) can't wait to get the drive - running out of space so fast
[23:09] <ka_> westz- so I would like to get the wireless to be automatically on whenever I start ubuntu and also to stop disconnecting
[23:09] <westz> ka_ do you have the correct firmware?
[23:09] <ka_> I'm not sure... I don't really know how to check
[23:09] <westz> did you install fwcutter?
[23:09] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: only works with FTPd and HTTPd instances. iand i think the HTTPd has to support the "range" header.
[23:09] <westz> i think the name is something like "b43fwcutter"
[23:09] <akikara> is not there anybody uses 1001pxd ?
[23:09] <ka_> westz_ I'm not sure what that is.  I've had windows all my life, I really new to linux
[23:10] <sw0rdfish> mneptok, you mean I have to be connected to the server in an ftp session?
[23:10] <westz> ka_ i'm relatively new too, search fwcutter in the repo's
[23:10] <BernardV> sw0rdfish: Maybe create a backup of the downloaded part, so when it goes wrong your not stuck downloading it completely
[23:10] <BigDaddyDuergar> after i used synaptic, now the USC works. Odd.... thanks again guys
[23:10] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: no, i mean that wget only supports resuming via FTP and HTTP
[23:10] <sw0rdfish> oh I see.
[23:11] <sw0rdfish> mneptok, can I use it with sftp
[23:11] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: dunno. try it and see.
[23:11] <BernardV> sftp is ssh.. then use rsync
[23:11] <sw0rdfish> how would that work...something like --> wget -c=sftp user@host:/path/to/file
[23:11] <sw0rdfish> ?
[23:11] <ka_> westz_ thanks, I'll google it.
[23:11] <fng> you know guys i know its not ideal for ppl to install the dual boot thing via wubi.exe but its all i got access to, no media for an iso and no thumb drives to use thumb drive boot. can someone help me out with this?
[23:11] <BernardV> sw0rdfish: sftp is ssh.. then use rsync
[23:12] <mneptok> sw0rdfish: wget -c user@host:/path/to/file.name
[23:12] <sw0rdfish> lol yeah ok
[23:12] <westz> ka_ why google? use USC
[23:12] <asdfwer> what is  usc
[23:12] <ka_> i'll have a look and maybe see if someone here has seen this problem before
[23:13] <westz> *facepalm* USC = Ubuntu Software Center
[23:13] <asdfwer> : )
[23:13] <westz> ka_ just install fwcutter
[23:13] <ka_> westz_yeah Iknow.. I do already have it installed
[23:13] <BernardV> sw0rdfish: alias scpresume="rsync --partial --progress --rsh=ssh"
[23:13] <BernardV> :)
[23:13] <westz> ok then. do you happen to have a dell wlan 1470 mini pci card?
[23:13] <ka_> westz_ I do
[23:14] <ka_> westz_ I think
[23:14] <westz> dell latitude d610 laptop?
[23:14] <ka_> no an old xps
[23:14] <mneptok> ka_: laptop?
[23:15] <ka_> yeah
[23:15] <westz> run lspci in terminal
[23:15] <westz> it'll tell you your wireless card
[23:15] <mneptok> ka_: does it have a mini-PCIe slot where the Broadcom is installed?
[23:15] <ka_> mneptok, I 'm not sure...
[23:15] <westz> ka_ does it do this on all networks? it could be the router (mine did that)
[23:15] <monitorismessedu> hello
[23:16] <Paulo39> hi guys
[23:16] <mneptok> ka_: are you using it now? if not, flip it over and look for a panel to remove and gain access to the PCIe slot.
[23:16] <ka_> I have only tried it on my network
[23:16] <Paulo39> do you know if counter strike is free or not?
[23:16] <ka_> I am using it now
[23:16] <monitorismessedu> can some one help me with my monitor?
[23:16] <Paulo39> if i want to play counter strike offline, do i have to pay?
[23:16] <westz> mneptok, why should he open it up?
[23:17] <mneptok> ka_: path of least resistance is to just replace the Broadcom with an Intel card that has support in the mainline kernel
[23:17] <ka_> 09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02) 0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11a/b/g (rev 01)
[23:17] <ka_> I'd prefer not to invest in new hardware for this.  Its my old laptop that I just replaced the windows OS because it was seriously slow
[23:17] <mneptok> ka_: my Dell Inspiron cam with a Broadcom. i replaced it immediately.
[23:18] <monitorismessedu> my monitor says "signal out of range". I'm using a live disk of 10.04 to use this chat and have 11.04 installed
[23:18] <deniross> hi, anyone here know how to make sandy bridge igp work in ubuntu 10.04 ?
[23:19] <ka_> I don't mind having to turn on the wireless card whenever I reboot.  Mostly I'd like it to stop losing the connection to the wireless network.  Once it does that it won't reconnect untiil I reboot the computer
[23:20] <JeZ-l-Lee> join xubuntu
[23:20] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> Hi, I installed the scid package (chess database software) but when I go to the start menu and search scid I can't find it.
[23:20] <westz> ka_ when that happens, use the command "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down"
[23:20] <ka_> thanks.  i write that down and se if it works next time that happens
[23:20] <westz> ka_ then use the command "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up"
[23:21] <westz> then try reconnecting
[23:21] <westz> worked when i ran arch
[23:21] <monitorismessedu> any one know how to fix a monitor that says "signal out of range" in 11.04
[23:21] <westz> that takes your wireless card offline then back on
[23:22] <ka_> thanks, I'll see if that works.
[23:22] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> I installed the scid package (chess database software) but when I go to the start menu and search scid I can't find it. Could someone please help me?
[23:22] <westz> also, you could add that to your autostart.sh so it does it on startup
[23:22] <monitorismessedu> signal out of range didn't show until i installed the nvidia drivers. I'm using and lcd monitor
[23:23] <westz> ubuntulinuxnoobj, is it a terminal command?
[23:23] <westz> also, USC will tell you how to use packages if that's what you used to install them
[23:23] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> I installed it synaptic package manager, I am trying to run the program by searching for it in the start menu
[23:24] <westz> ubuntulinuxnoobj, go to USC and look for it under "installed packages"
[23:24] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> usc?
[23:24] <guntbert> ubuntulinuxnoobj: USC being the ubuntu software center
[23:25] <monitorismessedu> the xorg file is empty on my install of 11.04
[23:26] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> It does not show up in USC
[23:27] <monitorismessedu> i've read that the startup manager helps with this, but I don't know how to install it for 11.04 when i'm using a virtual ubuntu disk of 10.04
[23:27] <guntbert> ubuntulinuxnoobj: I'd look for it under games
[23:27] <fng> need som help installing via wubi is anyone at all able to help out?
[23:28] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> it's not under games either
[23:28] <guntbert> ubuntulinuxnoobj: then open a terminal and type scid
[23:29] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> terminal worked, thanks
[23:30] <itaylor57> ubuntulinuxnoobj,  http://scid.sourceforge.net/
[23:30] <guntbert> ubuntulinuxnoobj: you can add a launcher to your desktop or panel
[23:31] <fng> No root file system is defined - fixes anyone?
[23:32] <potataoes_never_> Hello.
[23:32] <potataoes_never_> I just installed Ubuntu and I have some questions regarding Synaptic.
[23:33] <potataoes_never_> I'm trying to install Opera, and remove firefox/epiphany/chrome
[23:33] <monitorismessedu> can some one help me with my monitor?
[23:33] <potataoes_never_> The thing is, if I remove Firefox, Synaptic forces an installation of epiphany, and vice versa
[23:34] <potataoes_never_> How do I get Synaptic/apt-get to just do what I want, which is remove some package without forcing the installation of another?
[23:35] <potataoes_never_> Hello?
[23:35] <potataoes_never_> Anyone here?
[23:35] <fng> nobody can seriously help me? i mean ive been in here for like an hour or more. i have patience, but anything really?
[23:36] <potataoes_never_> Wow, you've been here for an hour?
[23:37] <potataoes_never_> Is this a dead help channel or something?
[23:37] <wildbat> !detail | fng
[23:37] <wildbat> !detaila | fng
[23:37] <wildbat> !details | fng
[23:37] <mobodo> can you dd if a drive that is mounted rw? on the same topic, what do you guys use for weekly incremental backup?
[23:38] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: Mind if I ask you a question?
[23:38] <fng> @ wildbat i can go through my many posts, they have been quite detailed and express in their request.
[23:38] <th0r> fng: well, some of us just got here recently....and haven't heard any of your many posts except the whining
[23:38] <monitorismessedu> i got "signal out of range" on my monitor using 11.04
[23:39] <fng> I installed ubuntu 11.04 via wubi.exe - upon restart i got "No root file system is defined" error. I cant use media including usb drives. must fix this problem and the only forum posts have been to fix via grub. which is impossible atm.
[23:39] <wildbat> potataoes_never_: huh?
[23:39] <postlarval> sorry guys i have question, what distro is best for small hosting/www/mysql on dedicated server? i am trying 10.04LTS now... is it best choice now ?
[23:39] <monitorismessedu> th0r: whadya say? I think you actually help me with my resolution problem before.
[23:40] <buzzkill> howdy all.. I have an issue I am trying to track down. Google did not provide a clear enough result for me. I am getting this in dmesg every 5 seconds... actually, 10 of these every 5 seconds. Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop.
[23:40] <buzzkill>  non-matching-uid symlink following attempted in sticky world-writable directory by sabnzbdplus (fsuid 1003 != 1000)
[23:40] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: I'm having troubles with Synaptic - I want to remove Firefox/Epiphany/Chrome and just have Opera on my system, but when I try to remove Firefox, it forces an Epiphany install, and vice versa. How do I get Synaptic to just remove what I need removed and not force other installations?
[23:40] <lapaga> fng, there is a whole wubi megathread on the forums
[23:40] <th0r> monitorismessedu: doubt it...I have been a laptop person for ages. Never used wubi, and haven't played with the monitor settings in years
[23:41] <fng> searched error and wubi.exe and got the same set of posts over and over all using "grub to workaround"
[23:41] <chrome_> I upgraded to the version of ubuntu that is is still being developed. How can I revert the process?
[23:42] <th0r> chrome_: there is no way to backup short of a reinstall.
[23:42] <ubuntulinuxnoobj> How do I change the settings for the toolbar (get it to stay on screen, change its location etc.)? Thank you for the help.
[23:42] <monitorismessedu> th0r: i'm not using wubi. I just have this message saying monitor out of range. I think you did help me years ago. this has happened about four times for me.
[23:42] <postlarval> sorry guys i have question, what distro is best for small hosting/www/mysql on dedicated server? i am trying 10.04LTS now... is it best choice now ? sorry for repeating this...
[23:42] <monitorismessedu> th0r: i mean the message says "signal out of range"
[23:42] <wildbat> potataoes_never_:  i just tried and i  don't see it force you to install Epiphany...?
[23:43] <potataoes_never_> Have you removed Chromium as well?
[23:43] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: Have you removed Chromium as well?
[23:43] <th0r> monitorismessedu: that message appearing on the monitor? if so, it usually means the cable is unplugged or bad
[23:43] <buzzkill> postlarval:  that is really opening a can of worms... nothing short of a distro war will result.
[23:43] <fng> @lapaga "No root file system is defined" not found in the megathread.
[23:44] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: I can show you what I get from terminal...
[23:44] <monitorismessedu> th0r: i'm using the same monitor for this chat on a virtual disk of 10.04 ubuntu
[23:44] <Zlitus> Hi.
[23:44] <postlarval> ok thanks for help i will keep this 10.04 lts by some time
[23:45] <postlarval> or install debian 5
[23:45] <monitorismessedu> th0r: before some one helped me just edit the xorg file and it got it to work. when i installed 10.04 my monitor worked fine just like with the virtual 10.04
[23:46] <Ether_Man> oh great..  if a program is available with only 32bit binary packages, I have to compile it myself to use on 64bit right? :
[23:46] <monitorismessedu> th0r: i just don't know what to write in that xorg file
[23:46] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: this is what it tells me when I run "sudo apt-get remove epiphany-browser" (I've already removed Chrome and Firefox)....The following extra packages will be installed: firefox firefox-global menu
[23:46] <th0r> monitorismessedu: as I understand it the new X doesn't even use a conf file, but it will recognize it if it is there. But what to put in it...I just don't know. You might check where the file is stored...an update should leave the original conf untouched...or at worst rename it
[23:46] <potataoes_never_> wildbat: but I don't want it to install any other extra packages
[23:47] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  try using synaptic
[23:47] <lapaga> fng, search wubi and "no root filesystem detected"
[23:47] <th0r> monitorismessedu: they went to that new desktop in 11.04 didn't they? I don't think they use X any more
[23:47] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  search for the package you want to remove ,, see if it reports the same thing
[23:48] <ActionParsnip> th0r: off course it uses X
[23:48] <potataoes_never_> coz_: The same thing happens inside there.
[23:48] <potataoes_never_> I'll try it again.
[23:48] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  if it does,, simply search for the packages it wants to install and tyr to "unmark" them
[23:48] <th0r> ActionParsnip: what is that new thing they are talking about in 11.04? I went to debian after 10.04 and sort of lost touch
[23:48] <lapaga> fng, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1312121&highlight=wubi+no+root+filesystem+defined
[23:48] <potataoes_never_> coz_: sounds good, let me try that out.
[23:49] <qin> th0r: If you ta
[23:49] <monitorismessedu> th0r: yes. I also read the new 11.04 uses something in the system to config xorg
[23:49] <IdleOne> potataoes_never_: try sudo apt-get remove --no-install-recommends epiphany-browser
[23:49] <th0r> ActionParsnip: Unity...that;s what I was thinking of
[23:49] <ActionParsnip> th0r: its what gives the GUI, Unity is just a shell, it's still gnome desktop
[23:49] <qin> th0r: Sorry, if you where thinking of wayland is not here yet.
[23:50] <ActionParsnip> th0r: you can run LXDE and run Unity ontop of it. Or KDE with Unity if you desire
[23:50] <th0r> ActionParsnip: ah...I thought I had read somewhere that it replaced X.
[23:50] <monitorismessedu> ActionParsnip: i am having a problem with my monitor saying "signal out of range".
[23:51] <coz_> nomodeset
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> !nomodeset | monitorismessedu
[23:51] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  thanks  darn  !!
[23:51] <potataoes_never_> IdleOne: the same thing happens even with that command :/
[23:51] <iniesta6> hi may i have help about install nvidia driver
[23:51] <IdleOne> potataoes_never_: try what coz said.
[23:51] <iniesta6> ive doanloaded the driver and i can not open it
[23:51] <monitorismessedu> ActionParsnip: I'll try that
[23:52] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  did unmarking the extra packages work in synaptic?
[23:52] <potataoes_never_> IdleOne: yep.
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> monitorismessedu: if you use nvidia then use:  nouveau.blacklist=1
[23:53] <iniesta6> anyone please?:)
[23:53] <coz_> iniesta6,   in terminal  lspci | grep -i vga
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: its in the repos, you don't need to manually download anything
[23:54] <iniesta6> :S
[23:54] <iniesta6> im still learning ^_^
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: what is the output of coz_'s command
[23:54] <iniesta6> coz- i know which video card i have
[23:54] <potataoes_never_> coz_: I just spent some trying it out, I'm still a little slow navigating around in Ubuntu - but anyways. No, it did not. Synaptic gives me no option but to automatically mark firefox for installation if I choose to remove epiphany, and when I right click to try and unmark firefox - I find that all the unmark options are greyed out/unresponsive....
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: which chip do you use?
[23:54] <iniesta6> geforce 8500 gt
[23:55] <coz_> iniesta6,  no problem just copy and paste that card in the teraminl even if you kknow the card
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[23:55] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  darn  I know there is a way,, then uninstall via synatpic then remove the packages it installed I suppose   I dont like that way  but,,,
[23:56] <iniesta6> im getting an error
[23:56] <iniesta6> cannot locate the package
[23:56] <iniesta6> maybe i wrote wrong:
[23:56] <coz_> iniesta6,     do you have a terminal opened>>
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: run:  sudo apt-get update      then rerun
[23:56] <iniesta6> sudo apt-get install nvidia-GeForce 8500 GT
[23:56] <coz_> iniesta6,   no no
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: no. I didn't say that did i
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: read the command i gave and COPY it
[23:56] <iniesta6> ho current as "currect"?
[23:56] <potataoes_never_> coz_, the thing is the reason why I have epiphany is because I tried to remove firefox - so the same problem occurs "vice versa"...if I try to remove Firefox -> forces Epiphany, try to remove Epiphany -> forces Firefox
[23:57] <iniesta6> i thought my video card
[23:57] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  oy,, that has to be irritating,, let me t hink hold on
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> iniesta6: is the EXACT command you need
[23:57] <iniesta6> yea its dowanloading :)
[23:58] <potataoes_never_> coz_, yeah! Thanks for helping, I hope we can figure something out
[23:58] <monitorismessedu> ActionParsnip: how do I use nouveau.blacklist=1?
[23:58] <ActionParsnip> monitorismessedu: same as any boot option
[23:58] <potataoes_never_> coz_, it's surprising, but Ubuntu is actually making me feel *powerless* with my laptop...
[23:58] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | monitorismessedu
[23:58] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  that will change with time,, you will actually understand and enjoy the kind of control over the system at some point
[23:59] <westz> potatoes_never_ probably because you need to have a browser to authenticate on some networks, though there should definitely be a command to get around it
[23:59] <potataoes_never_> coz_, Mhm, I suppose I just have to be patient while learning, can't get frustrated hahaha
[23:59] <potataoes_never_> westz: Even then, I do have a third browser installed - Opera.
[23:59] <coz_> potataoes_never_,  please,, dont get frustrated,, there are very capable people on this channel,, all of whom are very patient with new people :)

[18:15] <akk> MarkDude: That page doesn't show if you're not logged in to G+, if you care.
[18:17] <MarkDude> Awesome
[18:17] <MarkDude> G+ just manages to suck
[18:18] <MarkDude> I mean you cant be as crappy as Faccebook
[18:18] <MarkDude> ?
[18:18] <MarkDude> Thats a very lowbar, and you CANT do it?
[18:19] <akk> It is pretty impressive.
[18:19] <MarkDude> This sorta thing is the reason I have used FB for events. It sucks, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay less than other options
[18:22] <akk> Sadly, I don't know of an option that doesn't suck. meetup is pretty annoying too.
[18:22] <akk> Codechix has been using groupspaces.com, and it's actually working out okay, better than most other options I've seen.
[18:23] <akk> Or, of course, my fave, just have a mailing list and skip all the social-networking-reminder stuff.
[18:52] <MarkDude> True, I will ping the person making the ML
