[21:00] <aretrfre34> realubot:how to change icons in ubuntu-netbook to custom ones
[21:00] <mikebot> slinker1: No, how do I do that?
[21:00] <DarkStar1> I asked this earlier but got no response; does ubuntu log shutdowns and their causes?
[21:00] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  how did you make a bootable usb flash drive to begin with?
[21:00] <_2> E: Unable to parse package file /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_main_binary-i386_Packages (1)
[21:00] <mikebot> slinker1: I'm currently using chrome... is that a browser plugin?
[21:00] <alextybob> i used unetbootini
[21:00] <realubot> chadi: It may be due to the USB ports. A friend had a laptop that didn't handla his cam but the cam worked just fine at my computer using the exactly same version of Ubuntu and the cam worked on his computer using Windows.
[21:00] <_2> first problem   ^
[21:00] <realubot> aretrfre34: Do you want to change all icons?
[21:01] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  check the pendrivelinux site. they have some guides on converting a unetbootin 'setup' to a persistant save setup. But with a 2gb flash drive. You wont have much space to save anything
[21:01] <aretrfre34> realubot:no just one
[21:01] <justifier> i am trying to route port 8025 to 25 using iptables http://www.pastebin.org/387766 is what i am getting
[21:01]  * Dr_Willis wishes unetbootin would add that 'persistant save' feature.
[21:01] <alextybob> i have an ntfs hard drive that ubuntu recognises so it's cool
[21:01] <mneptok> mikebot: do they want IE on the Mac as well?
[21:01] <_2> io Dr_Willis does that look normal, or system wrecking ?
[21:01] <chadi> realubot: great, will try all these suggestions as soon as I get my hands on this laptop again :D
[21:01] <Dr_Willis> _2:  no idea. I normally do clean reinstalls. :)
[21:02] <_2> E: Unable to parse package file /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_main_binary-i386_Packages (1)
[21:02]  * DarkStar1 wonders if anyone noticed his plea
[21:02] <realubot> aretrfre34: Ok, I don't really know but I think all icons are stored somewhere like in .icons or something. Find the directory conataining icons and you may be able to replace them amnually.
[21:02] <realubot> *manually
[21:02] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  not that ive ever noticed.
[21:02] <mneptok> mikebot: OK, it's useless and will not work on anything except Windows. "If you have difficulty installing the chat controls, please check your ActiveX security settings."
[21:02] <_2> that from apt-get update    so it's already telling me there is a change in archive foo
[21:02] <mikebot> mneptok: https://supportcenter.timewarnercable.com/sdcxuser/lachat/user/minimumreqs.asp
[21:02] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  you could ssh in from a different box and watch the dmesg /var/log/messages   amd see what it says when it crashes
[21:03] <realubot> chadi: I don't if it does work but it may be worth a try at least. The booting problem be due to a lot of things I think.
[21:03] <mikebot> mneptok: So I can't use it?
[21:03] <slinker1> mikebot: oh its a plugin for firfox
[21:03] <mneptok> mikebot: https://www.timewarnercable.com/corporate/support/chat/chat.ashx
[21:03] <Melodist> Hello, can anyone here help me with plymouth? I'm running the latest Nvidia drivers(253?), and on linux mint the boot screen doesnt look quite right and I sometimes boot into low graphics mode. On Kubuntu it loads fine but I only see the splash screen for a few seconds, the rest of the time everything's black
[21:03] <DarkStar1> Dr_Willis: Thanks. It didn't crash it just suddenly shutdown (Not switch off)
[21:03] <chadi> yeah
[21:03] <realubot> chadi: Maybe you shall try booting a Live CD from cdrom too just to be sure.
[21:03] <mneptok> mikebot: just phone them
[21:04] <chadi> realubot: will do :) thank you
[21:04] <mneptok> Melodist: we do not support Mint here
[21:04] <Melodist> The partition that boots into low graphics mode is running gnome
[21:04] <realubot> chadi: If neither USB or CD works then I think it has do to the graphics card or the setting of it in BIOS.
[21:04] <jetsaredim> is there a way to adjust the audio offset in totem?
[21:04] <mneptok> !mintsupport | Melodist
[21:04] <slinker1> mikebot: works with firefox and useragent switchser set to ie 7
[21:04] <alextybob> Dr_Willis sorry for being so useless but can you try and find me the tutorial as i can't find it anywhere
[21:05] <realubot> chadi: There are also a lot of possibilities to change the way Ubuntu shall boot from the Live CD menu, but I don't really know the options. You can't set some different options at te Live Cd menu that change how Ubuntu Live shall try to boot.
[21:05] <Melodist> I've asked in linux mint, and there were solutions but none of them worked for me; that's why i thought i'd ask here. the problem isn't linux mint's anyway, it's plymouth
[21:05] <mikebot> mneptok: Haha, I hate waiting
[21:05] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  Not really. I have now been up for 22+ hrs.. so am ready to go to bed.
[21:05] <mikebot> slinker1: Thanks!
[21:05] <Melodist> But ah well, all right then
[21:05] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  what are you even going to do once you have a persistant save/setup? 2gb is going to be to small to do much of anything.
[21:05] <alextybob> fair enough man
[21:06] <mattperry1976> can anyone help with getting files saved during a live usb session?
[21:06] <alextybob> nothing much really
[21:06] <alextybob> just peruse the internet
[21:06] <alextybob> nothing major
[21:06] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  id say a 4gb flash drive min.. 8gb for a useable setup.
[21:06] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  the basics of it is basically just making a casperrw file on the root of the pendrive. and edit the proper syslinuxcfg file.  but that may be over your head. :)
[21:07] <alextybob> yeah, a little bit
[21:07] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  there are tools for windows that can do the setup if you got a windows box + tjhe iso file.
[21:07] <nicofs> can anyone troubleshoot my 3G-(not-)connection? All I get is "Disconnected - you are now offline." I deleted the connection. set it up anew. I rebooted. I used various providers - and yes I have coverage where I am right now.
[21:07] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  that Pendrivelinux web site - has the tools for that also.
[21:07] <alextybob> any recommended tools?
[21:08] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  or just do a normal install to the hard drive and be done with it.
[21:08] <r0zz> hi somebody knows a tool for block my usb for write
[21:08] <cutiyar> who used scalpel recovery software before?
[21:08] <mattperry1976> I gave a buddy a usb live install of ubuntu 10.04...they used the 'try ubuntu' option and saved stuff into the picture folder, then chose to do a permanent install on the laptop and are now trying to recover the pictures from their live session
[21:08] <Dr_Willis> r0zz:  clarify what you are asking
[21:08] <aombk_> hi i have a question regarding ubuntu recognizing my systems memory. shall i shoot in here or is there a somewhat specific channel?
[21:09] <realubot> aretrfre34: You did use netbook edition didn't you? I suppose you have tried to right click and then choose something like properties?
[21:09] <r0zz> i only want read from my usb
[21:09] <DarkStar1> Dr_Willis: I believe he want to make his USB pen drive Readonly
[21:09] <r0zz> i have information in this information dont want to modify
[21:10] <Dr_Willis> aombk_:  theres this common guide on linux/ram -> www.linuxatemyram.com
[21:10] <aretrfre34> realubot:so you never tried it?
[21:10] <Oer> alextybob, you are running ubuntu live via usb now, you typed > 21:43  i'm using ubuntu at the moment off of a live usb , so what is the problem ?
[21:10] <DarkStar1> aombk_: Shoot away
[21:10] <Dr_Willis> r0zz:  i would suggest making backups of the improntant stuff..
[21:10] <judgen> Does noone have a default .gtkrc-2.0* tat i could use?
[21:10] <alextybob> yeah
[21:11] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  the default.. is an empty file last i checked...
[21:11] <alextybob> but every time i restart my computer i have to reinstall flash etc
[21:11]  * Dr_Willis looks again
[21:11] <jrib> judgen: that's easy, it doesn't exist
[21:11] <r0zz> windows has a program called usb writeprotector my question is if linux has something like?
[21:11] <aombk_> i have installed ubuntu when i had 3gb of memory. i installed one more GB of memory but ubuntu still reports 3gb of memory installed. i am using 32bit ubuntu with pae kernel.thanks
[21:11] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  and with just a 2gb flash drive.. it will very quickly fill up. Why dont you jsut do a normal isntall then>
[21:11] <jrib> aombk_: does your bios see 4?
[21:12] <aombk_> yes
[21:12] <Dr_Willis> aombk_:  32bit or 64bit linux?
[21:12] <aombk_> Dr_Willis, 32bit
[21:12] <s3r3n1t7> !who
[21:12] <judgen> Dr_Willis, still the same problem... just like in kde3 i need it
[21:12] <alextybob> can i do a normal install without deleting all my stuff off of the ubuntu live cd?
[21:12] <justifier> i am trying to route port 8025 to 25 using iptables http://www.pastebin.org/387766 is what i am getting
[21:12] <alextybob> off of the hard drive een
[21:12] <alextybob> even*
[21:12] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  huh? what problem?
[21:13] <judgen> jrib, it does not due to the gnome sesion manager, but if you do not have that, you need the gtkrc file just as in kde3
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  for the 12th time. the installer can RESIZE your existing windows partitions.
[21:13] <alextybob> :)
[21:13] <blain> is synaptic the package manager for gnome?
[21:13] <alextybob> ok, how do i do that?
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  it shrinks windows.. and installs to its own partitions.
[21:13] <DarkStar1> aombk_: 32bit handles just a little over 3GB to see the full 4GB switch to 64bit
[21:13] <judgen> Dr_Willis, in non-compilant WM's i need it to be able to sue the themes
[21:13] <judgen> set*
[21:13] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  follow the installer qiestions.
[21:14] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  what themes? im totally lost here. :)
[21:14] <alextybob> i have either erase and use entire disk or specify partitions manually
[21:14] <Dr_Willis> !manual | alextybob
[21:14] <judgen> Dr_Willis, in KDE3 they use a gtkrc-2.0-qt and that will work too
[21:14] <judgen> any gtkrc file will be fine
[21:14] <blain> alextybob you can resize with the kubuntu cd
[21:14] <judgen> Dr_Willis, any theme
[21:14] <aombk_> DarkStar1, but i am using the pae kernel. isnt this what it is for?
[21:15] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  my .gtkrc-2.0 file has 1 line in it. (used by rox-filer) --> gtk-can-change-accels = 1    thats about it.
[21:15] <GlobalPR> |GNAA| - find out more @ www.gnaa.eu
[21:15] <alextybob> i can't use a cd as i don't have a working drive
[21:15] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  other then that - ive never seen any other .gtkrc-2.0 files/settings used by anything.
[21:15] <judgen> aombk_, the PAE kernel should support up to several TB, but will suffer some performance loss
[21:15] <nicofs> can anyone troubleshoot my 3G-(not-)connection? All I get is "Disconnected - you are now offline." I deleted the connection. set it up anew. I rebooted. I used various providers - and yes I have coverage where I am right now.
[21:15] <DarkStar1> The what?? Kernel?? I'm sorry I don't know about linux specific kernels but I could find out if you give me a link
[21:15] <GlobalPR> |GNAA| - find out more @ www.gnaa.eu
[21:16] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  it should have a 'install alongside/resize' option.  Unless your HD layout is very weird
[21:16] <eryn_1983> hey peeps what packaged  will recreate my pam.d/ directory?
[21:16] <GlobalPR> |GNAA| - find out more @ www.gnaa.eu
[21:16] <judgen> Dr_Willis, sadly that does not help... I should visit the kubuntu -remix channel if they ad one
[21:16] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  or its detecting your windows partition is goofed up. so wont try to resize it
[21:16] <rww> !ops | GlobalPR : GNAA crap
[21:16] <mneptok> judgen: actually, the physical limit for RAM with PAE is 64GB
[21:16] <s3r3n1t7> GlobalPR, please don't advertise in this channel.
[21:16] <alextybob> yeah my windows partition is goofed up
[21:16] <GlobalPR> rww: |GNAA| - find out more @ www.gnaa.eu
[21:16] <aombk_> judgen, thats ok. is there something i need to do in order for ubuntu to recognize the extra GB of ram i installed after installing ubuntu?
[21:16] <blain> aombk_ The Linux kernel includes full PAE mode support starting with version 2.3.23 enabling access of up to 64 GB of memory on 32-bit machines however a PAE-enabled Linux-kernel requires that the CPU also support PAE. :)
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  perhaps you should try to fix that first. Or just delete it :)
[21:17] <aretrfre34> realubot:so what with ICON?
[21:17] <chadi> I have an IR receiver on my laptop; how can I know that it is working in order to record lirc signals from it using irrecord?
[21:17] <xangua> !pae > aombk_
[21:17] <judgen> mneptok, the PAE can be extended, but it will cost even more of a perfiormance disadvantage.
[21:17] <chadi> !pae > chadi
[21:17] <alextybob> fixing windows has turned out to be a nightmare
[21:17] <aretrfre34> realubot:with CUSTOM Icons
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  is the OS messed up? or the hard drive bad/failing? or filesystem bad?
[21:18] <judgen> aombk_, yuu are likely NOT using the pae kernel if you can not see the ram.
[21:18] <mneptok> judgen: the PAE implementation in the Linux kernel supports a maximum of 64GB
[21:18] <G_G> hi folks
[21:18] <DarkStar1> Is Quad core a bit too much for desktop computing? Though I think it kind of helps at the moment
[21:18] <G_G> I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10
[21:18] <judgen> mneptok, so it is impossible... lol.
[21:18] <judgen> =D
[21:18] <G_G> is that a bad thing?
[21:18] <alextybob> the problem is the mbr
[21:18] <Dr_Willis> judgen:  you mean like this ---> http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/SampleGtkrc2.0
[21:18] <nicofs> is there anyone who is at least a bit familiar with mobile broadband?
[21:18] <aretrfre34> everything starts from small things, that is a small issue that i can't cahnge icon in latest ubuntu for mobile platforms
[21:19] <alextybob> it won't boot
[21:19] <mneptok> judgen: excuse me?
[21:19] <alextybob> and i don't know how to repair it
[21:19] <G_G> i upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10, is that bad?
[21:19] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  use teh live ubuntu setup to backup anything imporntant - to some other location. :) is a good idea.
[21:19] <alextybob> and when i tried using the windows DVD it didn't recognise the existance of my hardrive
[21:19] <Dr_Willis> alextybob:  my netbooks all ahve a recovery partition i can boot and restores windows.
[21:19] <G_G> cos my nvidea is not working anymore :(
[21:20] <alextybob> hmm... interesting i have nebver tried that

[21:22] <aretrfre34> realubot:ok
[21:23] <G_G> will this fix my nvidia?

[21:27] <hylian> if any of you had anything to do with ubuntu 10.04, my hats off to you. awesome os. beautifully done, exceptionally functional.
[21:28] <xorwhy> I want bitpim 1.0.7, but only 1.0.6 is available for ubuntu
[21:28] <mneptok> s3r3n1t7: please don't /notice me. it's extremely poor form.
[21:28] <Dr_Willis> xorwhy:  find a PPA for it. or recompile from source is one way to upgrade it
[21:29] <xorwhy> I know compiling from source won't work.
[21:29] <guntbert> DarkStar1: not pish posh - of course they are useful - but everyone who uses one should be aware that there *is* some risk
[21:29] <s3r3n1t7> mneptok, i would approach you in offtopic, where you are not. PM'ing is even poorer form, and it is offtopic here. What do you propose then?
[21:29] <G_G> guntbert: dude i live for that chance
[21:29] <xorwhy> Compiling things from source never, ever, ever, ever works, unless it's an application I didn't really care for when I compiled it, in these cases compiling works fine.
[21:30] <G_G> DarkStar1: iv done the updates now what?
[21:30] <mneptok> s3r3n1t7: ask first. or /j #ubuntu-ops to discuss op issues.
[21:30] <guntbert> G_G: thats ok with me :-)
[21:30] <Dr_Willis> xorwhy:  wow.. how logical..
[21:30] <G_G> restart?
[21:30] <Dr_Willis> xorwhy:  guess you go look for a PPA for it then.
[21:30] <G_G> im gonna do that

[21:32] <sklav> Hi guys
[21:32] <Cube``> hey guys, trying to simply run PITIVI, getting this: http://www.pastebin.org/387774
[21:32] <sklav> i got a quick question
[21:32] <sklav> has anybody else noticed when you do ping from command line the slow response
[21:32] <sklav> aka refreshing on screen
[21:33] <sklav> example ping www.google.com
[21:33] <sklav> and then ping 192.168.1.x
[21:33] <guntbert> !enter | sklav
[21:33] <mneptok> s3r3n1t7: sure, in -ops
[21:33] <DarkStar1> guntbert: the second we switch on the computer we take risks. Nothing is safe, I however will not recommend something I don't find near faultless.
[21:33] <sklav> sorry
[21:34] <iksf> Cube``: tried reinstalling
[21:34] <MaddTechWF> Can someone help me with my issue.  I've got samba setup to where I can see my shared HD's on my Windows box but when i try to browse it, I don't get anything.
[21:34] <xorwhy> Dr_Willis: This is not the first time this has happened. I am on the PPA page, and some dependency file is downloadable as a .deb, but the binary package itself is nowhere to be found
[21:34] <xorwhy> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bitpim/1.0.7+dfsg1-1/+build/1722614
[21:34] <guntbert> DarkStar1: ok ok - I didn't want to make a big issue of that :-) (sorry if it sounded that way)
[21:37] <DarkStar1> guntbert: Np dude. An assumption I make (Yes I know assumptions are the mother of all......) is that whoever chooses to run open source has agreed to leave the cotton ball handling of windows and therefore know that choosing to run the system itself involves risks
[21:38] <Cube``> iksf: done, still not working
[21:38] <iksf> Cube``: did update before reinstall ye?
[21:38] <alextybob> dr_W
[21:39] <Scunizi> Is Adobe Flex something that I will be able to run on Ubuntu?
[21:39] <Scunizi> As a user that is.....
[21:40] <sklav> Scunizi, does it claim to be supported by linux on adobes website
[21:40] <Cube``> iksf: what you mean update?
[21:40] <guntbert> DarkStar1: yet there is a distintion between software that was tested and is supported here (the ubuntu repos) and such which comes from essentially untrusted sources - mind you I didn't say "don't recommend ppas" ...
[21:40] <bob_> hey
[21:40] <Cube``> its a fresh ubuntu install you know
[21:40] <guntbert> *distinction

[21:41] <guntbert> bob_: what was the problem?
[21:41] <bob_> thatnks ill try that
[21:41] <osmario> how to make rhythmbox radio browser works on?
[21:41] <sklav> Scunizi, i never said it works
[21:41] <iksf> Cube``:and an upgrade too, might be xorg or something
[21:42] <sklav> i said confirm on adobes website if they claim support for linux
[21:42] <sklav> I would be more inclined to say no

[21:42] <slidinghorn> !anyone | MaddTechWF
[21:42] <jerel> my laptop screen flashes multi-colored (kinda like static) once in a while. Any idea why it would do that? I'm running lynx on a new Dell 1545
[21:42] <iksf> Cube``:yup
[21:42] <Scunizi> sklav: understood.. and the application of it is going into beta for my job association.. I'm just being hopeful.. running windows in a vm works but I'd just rather not have to if it's not needed.
[21:43] <DarkStar1> guntbert: That is true. but in this case the ppa I recomemended comes from the Hardware manufacturers themselves. The situation regarding PPA shouldn't be taken in such  Black and white context. I would assume the hardware manufacturers have a vested interest in ensuring the functionality of their hardware
[21:43] <Cube``> iksf: yeah did
[21:43] <iksf> Cube``:try compiling it from source
[21:43] <MaddTechWF> okay, I'm new to IRC.  What does the stuff in red text mean?

[21:43] <iksf> Cube``:need help with that or confident?
[21:44] <osmario> its the answer to your post
[21:44] <MaddTechWF> okay.
[21:44] <DarkStar1> guntbert: sorry for dragging it :)
[21:44] <Scunizi> sklav: looks like it also required "Air" as well... Aargg.
[21:44] <guntbert> DarkStar1: :-))
[21:44] <Cube``> iksf: confident, thanks for asking though
[21:44] <bob_> wait so sudo just identifys you as root for that one command?
[21:44] <iceroot> MaddTechWF: its common in irc to use the nick of the person you are talking to at the begin of the sentence. you can use the tab key for auto-completion. type icer and press tab to see what i mean
[21:44] <Scunizi> bob_: yep
[21:45] <bob_> and su, then !sudo makes u root user?
[21:45] <sklav> air in installable on Ubuntu
[21:45] <Scunizi> bob_: or sudo -i .. but it's not recommended.
[21:45] <ownlife> Is it possible to have start-up applications open in different desktops?
[21:45] <bob_> cool

Please help.
[22:27] <nutri> And about the Internet Explorer someone are asking about, why don't try use PlayOnLinux to install IE 7?
[22:28] <nutri> I have this configuration here, and woks great.
[22:28] <Kyle__> Lxndr: Click the advanced button :)
[22:28] <oka> what happened to codeweavers?
[22:28] <erUSUL> christina_: press shift during install to force the grub menu to appear
[22:28] <nutri> Thanks ikfs, i'll take a look.
[22:28] <erUSUL> christina_:sorry --> press shift during boot to force the grub menu to appear
[22:28] <duffydack> chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra is another package worth getting
[22:28] <Kyle__> Lxndr: There it lets you select 7.  I could have sworn it did 8 as well, but ehy, 7 shoudl be good enough.

[22:30] <Kyle__> Cube``: That could be a driver issue, or pulse audio is missing a script or somethign.
[22:31] <iksf> Cube``: Check gnome volume control
[22:31] <Kyle__> Cube``: I've only had that happen due to funky drivers, but ya know, could be a different issue.

[22:44] <alextybob> or something
[22:44] <jazzanova> this just stated to happen, i didn't change anything.

[22:45] <jazzanova> can I downgrade to an older kernel in Ubuntu 10.4 ?

[22:47] <Kyle__> wizard_: Cool.  So what was the problem?
[22:47] <jazzanova> jordan: what about the kernel -- can I use older kernel ?
[22:47] <Ddorda> slidinghorn: it won't work with both panels, the last panel is not available to remove
[22:48] <wizard_> Kyle__, I posted the problem on a website the other day thought id check set the video to

[22:51] <Agu10_> hi
[22:52] <Agu10_> I have a pentium dual core 1.3GHz, but I think ubuntu doesn't recognize the 2 cores
[22:52] <Agu10_> it finds only 1 I think
[22:52] <Ddorda> Agu10_: why do you think so?
[22:53] <rautamiekka> Agu10: If you're running Ubuntu Desktop, you can check up if System Monitor lists two graphs.
[22:53] <GonardFreeman> Agu10, we dont know)
[22:53] <Agu10_> at least win7 doesn't. how can I check if ubuntu does?
[22:53] <olskolirc> i have openoffice 2.4.1 on Intrepid and it looks like windows 95 - i lost all my icons and the pretty gloss how do I get that back?
[22:53] <roo0t> well i have problem with my visual
[22:53] <rautamiekka> Woops, wrong person ... Agu10_: If you're running Ubuntu Dekstop, you can check with System Monitor. If there's two graphs, it recognizes correctly.
[22:53] <Agu10_> Ddorda: vmware doesn't take 2 cores I think
[22:54] <Agu10_> rautamiekka, em. it shows only 1
[22:54] <slidinghorn> !details | roo0t
[22:54] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Are you running ubuntu in vmware or on the machine itself?

[22:54] <Agu10_> Kyle__, in the machine
[22:54] <GonardFreeman> Agu10, system monitor shows that my netbook have two cores)
[22:54] <Ddorda> Agu10_: go to System > Admin.. > System Monitor
[22:54] <erUSUL> boris_: if you go to Sytem>Admin>hardware drivers. do you see something about wifi there ?
[22:54] <GonardFreeman> Agu10, so u can try it too
[22:54] <Ddorda> Agu10_: and check if you see 2 graphs for core
[22:54] <Agu10_> Ddorda, GonardFreeman it shows only 1 graph
[22:55] <LasBuntu> does anyone know of any "macro" software for automnating Gnome desktop tasks?
[22:55] <Kyle__> Agu10_: from a command line type this: grep -c processor /proc/cpuinfo
[22:55] <rautamiekka> Agu10_: Then, either the CPU is damaged or it's damaged.
[22:55] <Ddorda> Agu10_: i'd check with the shop if it's really has 2 cores :)

[22:55] <Agu10_> Kyle__, 1
[22:55] <Kyle__> Agu10_: if it says 1, it's using 1 processor.  2, it's using 2 processors.
[22:55] <rautamiekka> LOL. Agu10_: I guess I should go sleep ... I meant to say "either damaged or it doesn't have two"
[22:55] <Agu10_> then how can I make it work with 2 of them ? :S
[22:55] <Kyle__> Agu10_: You may have the second core turned off in the bios

[22:56] <GonardFreeman> nope
[22:56] <rautamiekka> prodigel: I can try to help but I'm not too experienced. What's the matter ?
[22:56] <coz_> prodigel,  if no one here knows ...you could try the ##linux channel
[22:56] <boris_> erURSUL: "Noproprietary drivers are instald..."
[22:56] <Kyle__> Agu10_: look for things like dual core, multi core, stuff like that.

[23:01] <Agu10_> I don't have any option to enable another core in the BIOS

[23:01] <bihari> yes now this much only

[23:01] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Humm.  As root, try running dmidecode|less
[23:01] <Agu10_> maybe I have to upgrade the BIOS?
[23:01] <soupdragon> Kyle__ the older versions have done (sometimes) but this newest one has problems (that I have not been able to resolve despite trying everything)
[23:01] <GonardFreeman> bob_,  today, i've try to install local printer to(and he is installs) but he dont wants to print(

[23:02] <eipi-1> does anyone know about a way to get iwlagn driven wifi card ( intel 6300) in AP mode?
[23:02] <Kyle__> Agu10_: I've had that happen in some dell servers: coudln't see the quad core procs until I updated the bios.  So it's possible.

[23:03] <bihari> wher is the solution man
[23:03] <bihari> ?
[23:03] <bob_> lol iv been using ubuntu for like 2 weeks and set up all my periferals that same way
[23:03] <Agu10_> Kyle__, but this came with the notebook, so I don't think they wanted me to not use one of the cores :S
[23:03] <bob_> thanks
[23:03] <Agu10_> Win7 doesn't find it either
[23:03] <bihari> alidinghorn wher is my solution
[23:03] <Kyle__> Agu10_: If there are no bios switches for it, and ubuntu doesn't see it, and windows 7 doesn't see it.... There's a chance you were lied to, and it doesn't have it.
[23:04] <Kyle__> A pretty good chance :(
[23:04] <slidinghorn> bihari, be patient, I'm looking...so far, I've found this...it's from Hardy (8.10) but it may be worth taking a look at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=780946   I'm still looking for more recent info
[23:04] <Kyle__> soupdragon: That's a biggie.  Intel or PPC?
[23:04] <soupdragon> intel
[23:05] <Agu10_> Kyle_: it says on the internet that it has a pentium dual core
[23:05] <prodigel> rautamiekka, solved it :).   I gave up on it cause it was a side project at work.
[23:05] <Kyle__> Agu10_: What does dmideocde tell you?
[23:05] <inckie> i http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-ubuntu-9-10-live-usb-in-windows/ <-- trying to install ubuntu using this method, i made a bootable usb, can boot from it, and start ubuntu install process. but the step "Copying files from CD-Rom fails"
[23:05] <Agu10_> Kyle_: and it says here: intel pentium processor SU2700(1.3GHz, 800MHz FSB)
[23:05] <rautamiekka> prodigel: Glad it's solved :) I were looking at the syntax which to me seemed wrong, but then there was the permissions I was coming to.

[23:05] <Dupper> Hi!  Is there a way I can use the USB cord of my DSL modem instead of the ethernet cord?  I need the ethernet jack for other things.
[23:05] <soupdragon> yeah
[23:06] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Bad news.  http://ark.intel.com/product.aspx?id=42004
[23:06] <Kyle__> That's the intel spec sheet on the SU2700
[23:06] <slidinghorn> bihari -- that's all I could find...but take a look and see if that helps you.
[23:06] <bihari> whear?
[23:07] <Kyle__> Agu10_: It's a 64bit, single core, non-hyperthreadded chip, that doesn't have virtualization extentions.
[23:07] <bihari> slidinghorn, wher man?
[23:07] <slidinghorn> Dupper, here's what I was able to find: http://ubuntuaddict.com/ubuntu-restoring-usb-wired-interface/

[23:07] <Dupper> that will really help... I've gotten everything else to work, even my ipod
[23:07] <rautamiekka> Dupper: First ensure that the modem permits use of both jacks. Years back I attempted use of both with some Telewell device but later reading the manual I had to drop that idea.
[23:08] <Dupper> it does, that's how I used it before.
[23:08] <FabParma> I found on my kernel list "ubuntu generic-pae"? I am sure that I am not intentionally installed it. How its possible?
[23:08] <lxsys> Dupper: couldn't you use a router/switch?
[23:08] <slidinghorn> Dupper, I just realized that was a question with no response...I'm sorry, let me keep looking
[23:08] <bihari> nops that link cant able to help me its having same problem
[23:08] <bihari> by some other use

[23:08] <Agu10_> Kyle__, http://ezinearticles.com/?Acer-Aspire-Timeline-AS3810TZ-4880-13.3-Inch-Laptop&id=2834640
[23:08] <Agu10_> says dual core
[23:09] <Dupper> I am just glad to have your help
[23:09] <Dupper> this thing will be perfect if I fix this one quibble
[23:09] <Dupper> I mean I'd LIKE for my x-fi to get digital output, but I don't really care all that much :)
[23:09] <UltraParadigm> HALP! :-D
[23:09] <slidinghorn> bihari...I'm not sure what you just said...if they had the same problem, then why wouldn't it be worth trying the solution?
[23:10] <UltraParadigm> What is a good Remote assistance program that is free and secure for my momms windows pc?
[23:10] <UltraParadigm> preferably that I can use from linux
[23:10] <Kyle__> Agu10_: I know, but the processor dmidecode gave you isn't the same one.
[23:10] <lxsys> UltraParadigm: teamviewer
[23:10] <veleno> hello. i'm following this guide http://blog.petersen.vg/post/237815372/debfile to build a deb. How do I do to install some files in the home directory of the user, instead of putting them in /usr/lib ?
[23:10] <Agu10_> Kyle__, ok
[23:10] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Did you buy the laptop online, or from a brick-and-mortar store?
[23:11] <trism> veleno: you should not install files into users home directories with a deb
[23:12] <slidinghorn> UltraParadigm, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
[23:12] <bob_> gonardFreeman, its a shell scrip and when i try to run it i get an error message saying that it couldn't detect the caricter encoding
[23:12] <Dupper> anythhing sliding horn?
[23:12] <bergLNX> Can anyone help me with Gwibber? I really can't get it up and running :( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9569679
[23:12] <Agu10_> Kyle__, from a store in US, but I'm in argentina
[23:12] <veleno> trism: but is it technically possible?
[23:12] <Bambino> could someone help me find my mouse name using xinput?
[23:12] <UltraParadigm> lxsys: Thanks, I'm at thier page now.  Looks good
[23:12] <trism> veleno: yes, but you still shouldn't
[23:12] <Dupper> back in a bit... I think lol
[23:12] <Agu10_> Kyle__, ok, it doesn't say "dual" here in the notebook anywhere, so it's OK
[23:13] <lxsys> UltraParadigm: There's linux packages, and windows installations and portables.
[23:13] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Ugh.  Sorry :(  Check your box/receipt anyway.  If you bought it with a credit card, call the CC company.
[23:13] <lxsys> UltraParadigm: It works nicely, and if the linux packages don't work the windows "installer" works nicely over wine if you select "run".
[23:14] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Damn.  Does it list a processor name on it?  if it lists the core2 or anything but u2700 or su2700 they gave you the wrong thing.
[23:14] <Kyle__> Agu10_: That's still a good little processor you know.
[23:14] <wizard_> anyone got the latest SVN build for xbmc for ubuntu 10.4 :)
[23:14] <Agu10_> Kyle__, yes. Im pretty sure it doesnt say anything else than su2700
[23:14] <Agu10_> LOL
[23:14] <BluesKaj> wizard_ ask in #ubuntu+1
[23:14] <wizard_> or a great list of content
[23:15] <deco> wizard_: i have the stable one but it's too slow :(
[23:15] <Twixly> Hello everyone, could someone give me a quick hand? I am trying to install ubuntu from USB. But there is no install option after boot, it just starts up Ubuntu from the USB (I am actually in ubuntu right now lol). But I want to install it to my HDD obviously.
[23:15] <Galaxor> Hi.  So I enabled the lucid-backports repo according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports, so that I could install the latest kernel that I needed.  The guide said that by setting the pin-priority, backports would never install unless you specifically asked them to.  However, my "Update Manager" is presenting me with a bunch of stuff under the heading "Proposed updates".  apt-get ugrade agrees that I need to upgrade unreasonable software.  What
[23:15] <bob_> gonardfreeman wait nevermind, i extracted it and ran it in termanal
[23:15] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Damn.  Oh well :)
[23:15] <Agu10_> I should've spent some more for the core 2 duo version
[23:15] <deco> Twixly: no installation icon ?
[23:15] <Twixly> All it shows after I choose boot from USB is : Defaul and Help. Both seem to start Ubuntu.
[23:16] <deco> Twixly: which ubuntu version ?
[23:16] <UltraParadigm> slidinghorn: Thank's I'll look into that too!
[23:16] <Kyle__> Agu10_: if it helps, since I put a good SSD into my netbook, it's 1.6ghz atom usually outruns the 3ghz P4 desktops at work.
[23:16] <Oer> wizard_, https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ppa
[23:16] <wizard_> deco, were you get it from
[23:16] <Twixly> Ohhh.... HAHA I am so stupid, ofcourse there is an install icon on the desktop !
[23:16] <slidinghorn> dupper, sorry couldn't find anything
[23:16] <Twixly> haha that was my biggest computer fail sofar
[23:16] <tripelb> cannot playback (CD) internal data flow error (UB 9.10)  what can I do?
[23:16] <deco> wizard_: just google ubuntu xbmc , easy as that :D
[23:17] <Twixly> deco: Thanks, all you had to say was "install icon" and I realized my error.
[23:17] <Agu10_> Kyle__, really? can you change an HD for an SD ?
[23:17] <Dupper> hello Im back
[23:17] <Dupper> slidinghorn did you find anything?
[23:17] <deco> Twixly: oh hehe
[23:17] <slidinghorn> dupper, read up...already responded
[23:17] <Gryllida> Hello, why do any NEW files I save to a windows share show 'access denied' warning when that Windows user tries to open them, while me just editing existing files does not make any problems?
[23:17] <wizard_> deco, you just had it like other pluggins add it to the folder and thats it?
[23:17] <Twixly> I was assuming it was pre-boot option, as in before Ubuntu actually starts.
[23:17] <Shiba> i have a question concerning clearing up some space on ubuntu netbook ed.
[23:18] <Dupper> I think I was gone at the time, can you like, paste it to a /msg or something?
[23:18] <deco> wizard_: no there's a repos
[23:18] <gasull> Hi.  what is the repository at http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu ?
[23:18] <deco> wizard_: repo*
[23:18] <Gryllida> Shiba: Ask! :)
[23:18] <deco> wizard_: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/12/09/transform-ubuntu-into-a-media-center-with-xbmc/
[23:18] <bihari> i really dont know whats wrong with my termina :( graphic
[23:18] <wizard_> deco, that's what I am looking for a good repo with good content

[23:18] <inckie> i http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-ubuntu-9-10-live-usb-in-windows/ <-- trying to install ubuntu using this method, i made a bootable usb, can boot from it, and start ubuntu install process. but the step "Copying files from CD-Rom fails"
[23:18] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Sure.  Most every laptop/netbook nowdays uses sata.
[23:18] <Gryllida> bihari: what exactly do you see?
[23:18] <Shiba> i don't need all the language packages,and i'm sure they take up some space... how do i delete them?
[23:18] <Galaxor> (when I said -backports up there, I meant -proposed)
[23:18] <wizard_> deco, cheers i'll have a look

[23:19] <Plasma> Hi
[23:19] <Dupper> IO said 'back in a bit' and when I got back this was the first thing I saw: Kyle__, really? can you change an HD for an SD ?
[23:19] <eipi-1> does anyone know about a way to get iwlagn driven wifi card ( intel 6300) in AP mode?
[23:19] <bob_> ok people im extracting a driver for a wireless printer and during installation it asks for the root password, and i have to enter it in a text box, i cant just use sudo -i like i normaly do, so whats the correct way to become root for this?
[23:19] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Look online for a tutorial of how to replace the drive on  your laptop before you buy one.    I would have gladly payed the computer shop an extra $20-$30 to do it.
[23:19] <Plasma> My copy of Ubuntu switched to a live session when it failed to install. Would I by chance be lucky enough for it to grab files it can't read from the CD off the internet?
[23:19] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Just keep that in mind :)
[23:20] <Sam_Fisher> Howdy Ya'll
[23:20] <Agu10_> Kyle__, aren't they too expensive?
[23:20] <Agu10_> I have 320GB HD
[23:20] <Gryllida> bihari: edit > profile preferences > untick 'use system font' >choose something readable
[23:20] <Dupper> connecting to the internet via USB, anyone?
[23:20] <Kyle__> Agu10_: Not for the smaller ones.  I've only got a 30 in there now, but then again I've got a server in my house with 2TB, so it's easy.
[23:21] <Gryllida> Plasma: what makes you think it can't read some files from the CD?
[23:21] <Agu10_> you send it through internet, Kyle__ ?
[23:21] <bihari> wher is the edit option
[23:21] <Plasma> Because it said in big fat letters "Installation failed"
[23:21] <trojan_spike> usb?
[23:21] <Agu10_> Kyle__, I install a lot of stuff here :S
[23:21] <Kyle__> wifi, locally :)
[23:21] <Sam_Fisher> Anyone running PS3 Media Server?
[23:21] <bihari> Gryllida,  wher is the edit option?
[23:21] <Agu10_> Kyle__, oh, I see
[23:21] <lxsys> Dupper: connecting via usb is a pain, I gave up with my sagem f@st 800 modem because it used to take longer than mobile broadband to actually get it working.
[23:21] <Gryllida>  bihari: applications - accessories - terminal opens a window with file / edit / ,,, menu at the top, try edit - profile prefs
[23:21] <Agu10_> Kyle__, maybe I have 2 satas so I can put an SSD too
[23:21] <Agu10_> that would be fine?
[23:22] <Kyle__> ooh
[23:22] <slidinghorn> Shiba, take a look @ tip #3 here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140920
[23:22] <gasull> slidinghorn: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu isn't any of the main known repositories.  Or am I missing anything?
[23:22] <askhader> Agu10_: Why not?
[23:22] <Plasma> Gryllida: Will the installation be able to pull the files off the net if it fails to read it from the CD?
[23:23] <askhader> Agu10_: How many ports are available on your motherboard?
[23:23] <askhader> Plasma: Depends on if you have an internet connection.
[23:23] <Plasma> I'm here. :)
[23:23] <slidinghorn> !pm | Dupper you were responded to already:
[23:23] <Plasma> Live Ubuntu session.
[23:23] <askhader> Then best of luck, sir.
[23:23] <Plasma> Ok, thanks.
[23:23] <Dupper> I wasnt here when I was responded to :(  I had disconnected... sorry about the msg
[23:24] <askhader> Plasma: Come back here if you have any issues.
[23:24] <Gryllida> Plasma: it would give the 'corrupt cd' warning, I've never heard about taking installation files from Internet, but how do you know that it really can't read some files from cd?
[23:24] <trojan_spike> internet USB ?? what u mean??
[23:24] <bob_> why is it dumb to run xchat as root?
[23:24] <askhader> Gryllida: Never heard of Gentoo?
[23:24] <slidinghorn> Dupper, ok..well unfortunately I was not able to find a solution.  Sorry =\
[23:24] <Plasma> Gryllida: It said it some directory didn't exist or something.
[23:24] <Dupper> OH!  That was it, yeah I got that, thought there was something else.
[23:24] <Plasma> -it*
[23:24] <askhader> bob_: securiteh
[23:24] <Dupper> I bet no one here uses a USB port to access the internet lol
[23:24] <s3r3n1t7> bob_, if something manages to break through xchat, it will have full access to your system instead of just your account.
[23:24] <Plasma> It was at 60% when it failed.
[23:24] <bob_> o, right
[23:25] <Gryllida> Plasma, tried to run the install one more time? if same, then burn another cd.
[23:25] <trojan_spike> i used usb dongle
[23:25] <Agu10_> askhader, I think only one :(
[23:25] <Dupper> Isn't it dumb to run anything as root?
[23:25] <bihari> nops
[23:25] <tjor> Dupper I do
[23:25] <askhader> Gryllida: Some packages are not essential for booting
[23:25] <LjL> bob_: it's dumb to run any application as root that doesn't need root. however, it's especially dumb to run applications that access the internet as root, because then someone else who knows about bugs in the application (and there are always such bugs) could exploit them to gain *full*, and not just limited, access to your system.
[23:25] <BluesKaj> bob_:  it's not xchat as root , running any internet app as root is insecure
[23:25] <Gryllida> Plasma, do a mechanical clean up of cd drive as well
[23:25] <Dupper> trojan... that is basically what this is
[23:25] <askhader> Gryllida: He can just grab them after.
[23:25] <Dupper> what driver did you use for the USB dongle?
[23:25] <Plasma> Ah.
[23:25] <bihari> when i type m its showing the same
[23:25] <LjL> Dupper: no, or root wouldn't exist
[23:25] <trojan_spike> so whats your problem m8?
[23:25] <Dupper> LjL:  Sorry, I oversimplified.
[23:25] <bob_> thanks for the tons of answers
[23:25] <Gryllida>  bihari: did you see the font dropdown?
[23:26] <Plasma> I've been having all sorts of problems installing Kubuntu, I think it has something to do with my power saving settings.
[23:26] <askhader> Plasma: As long as you get the core libs, you can download the packages later. aptitude has support for this.
[23:26] <BluesKaj> !root | bob
[23:26] <bihari> dropdown?
[23:26] <bob_> lol apparently thats a big problem
[23:26] <Dupper> trojan_spike, I can't get an internet connection via USB. :(
[23:26] <LjL> BluesKaj: perhaps you wanted !rootirc?
[23:26] <Shiba> thanks!
[23:26] <Gryllida> bihari: selection box for fonts, did you see it in edit profile prefs window?
[23:26] <trojan_spike> o2, voda ??
[23:26] <askhader> lol
[23:26] <`blackmk4`linux> my box rebooted last night onto the new kernel, it's a headless server
[23:26] <Plasma> Eh, can I hide join/parts/quits with irssi?
[23:26] <BluesKaj> LjL:  yeah , that's it
[23:26] <Galaxor> I figured out what I did wrong.  The directory /etc/apt/preferences.d existed, so I made a file called /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed.conf and put my pin-priorities in there.   Apparently, I see that you have to put these prefs into /etc/apt/preferences itself.
[23:26] <oddtod> how do i restart samba i used to use "/etc/init.d/smb restart" but thats not working
[23:27] <`blackmk4`linux> now i have to manually login to the box before it will accept connections of any kind
[23:27] <LjL> !quietirssi | Plasma
[23:27] <`blackmk4`linux> wtf
[23:27] <Dupper> Oh well.
[23:27] <Plasma> Ok, thanks. :)
[23:27] <askhader>  `blackmk4`linux So like ssh you mean?
[23:27] <askhader> np
[23:27] <`blackmk4`linux> yeah and the http service
[23:27] <bihari> well i have editing profile
[23:27] <luksion> oddtod: use /etc/init.d/smbd restart
[23:27] <bob_> i need to access root to install a driver, but i cant use terminal, so is there a way in terminal to set the root password to something ill remember?
[23:28] <Dupper> worth a shot.  Guess I'll have to get a wireless adapter for my PC or my Xbox.
[23:28] <bihari> i have no of option general titel and commands colors
[23:28] <dtownhero> bob_: passwd _yourpasshere_
[23:28] <bob_> thanks man
[23:28] <bihari> ?
[23:28] <dtownhero> may need to run as sudo - I don't know what you're doing.
[23:28] <bihari> what to do next?
[23:28] <askhader> `blackmk4`linux: Interesting. service ssh restart
[23:28] <askhader> What does that spit?
[23:28] <slidinghorn> !patience | bihari
[23:28] <`blackmk4`linux> it works as soon as i login to the box physically
[23:29] <`blackmk4`linux> but not before that
[23:29] <bastidrazor> bob_: use sudo instead of trying access the root account.
[23:29] <Dupper> Oh how I wish this stupid modem had 23 ethernet jacks
[23:29] <Dupper> thanks again slidinghorn
[23:29] <bastidrazor> bob_: also, why can't you use terminal?
[23:29] <askhader> `blackmk4`linux: Do you actually have to 'start' ssh ?
[23:29] <`blackmk4`linux> no
[23:29] <askhader> o.o
[23:29] <askhader> Bizarre
[23:29] <`blackmk4`linux> yeah, it's the new kernel i think
[23:29] <`blackmk4`linux> wtf
[23:29] <bob_> because i need to type it in a text box in the driver windo
[23:30] <lxsys> Dupper: for 23 jacks use a switch
[23:30] <askhader> `blackmk4`linux: did you look at dmesg?
[23:30] <`blackmk4`linux> let me check quick
[23:30] <rautamiekka> !topics
[23:30] <dtownhero> `blackmk4`linux: try telnet host SSHPORT
[23:30] <dtownhero> see if the port is open
[23:31] <bob_> its saying user root doesnt exist
[23:31] <`blackmk4`linux> it has a lot of stuff about operation="profile_load+
[23:31] <Agan_squiddy> is it safe to remove the default ubuntu softwares like: gwibber, ubuntu one, fspot, empathy, gnome dict, evolution, etc etc?
[23:31] <`blackmk4`linux> and a bunch of services

[23:32] <bastidrazor> T3CHKOMMIE: #networking possibly
[23:32] <Sam_Fisher> T3CHKOMMIE, are they ubnutu switches?
[23:32] <rautamiekka> Agan_squiddy: I've done similar to my Ubuntus many times and I know to warn that you're likely to break the system unbootable by just uninstalling any of system's dependencies.

[23:34] <slidinghorn> wb sebse
[23:34] <slidinghorn> sebsebseb, ^\
[23:35] <aeon-ltd> slidinghorn: why did the developer suddenly take a leap in a new direction, the new pcmanfm is basically thunar without xfce built in tools
[23:35] <sebsebseb> slidinghorn: Hi and what does ^/  mean?
[23:35] <Gryllida> sebsebseb: Morning!
[23:36] <FabParma> I found on my kernel list "Linux 2.6.32-23-generic-pae"? I am sure that I am not intentionally installed this kernel. How its possible that its present on my pc?
[23:36] <askhader> FabParma: Automatic updates will do this.
[23:36] <sebsebseb> Gryllida: Not morning here.
[23:36] <soporte> holaaa
[23:36] <rautamiekka> Agan_squiddy: Exactly. I wanted to decrease the space usage by uninstalling useless Ubuntu's dependencies. Worked to some point and later not even logon in command line environment was possible.
[23:36] <kojack> how do i type in her
[23:36] <kojack> and what is this all about
[23:37] <kojack> i will leave this up and wait for responses
[23:37] <BluesKaj> kojack:  you just did and read the info at the top
[23:37] <slidinghorn> aeon-ltd, not sure...probably a better topic for either #lubuntu or #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:37] <kojack> oh
[23:37] <askhader> !topic | kojack
[23:37] <kojack> that simple
[23:37] <FabParma> askhader: so do you think is fault of ubuntu sw update aptitude, apt for instance
[23:37] <slidinghorn> sebsebseb, I was pointing up to the line that said welcome back...my finger slipped
[23:37] <Agan_squiddy> rautamiekka, lol i'll just leave em sleep on my HDD. i think :D thanks for the suggesions.
[23:38] <kojack> topic
[23:38] <rautamiekka> FabParma: Ubuntu installer thought it was best to install that and let you install "better" one. Happens to me also.
[23:38] <sebsebseb> slidinghorn: ok and thanks for the wb :)
[23:38] <askhader> FabParma: Fault? Installing an updated kernel is a feature.
[23:38] <Oer> FabParma, this kernel pae does help 4gb+ on  a 32 bit ubuntu
[23:38] <kojack> ok
[23:38] <Sego> Is there a program manager like Digsby, that can be used with Lucid Lynx?
[23:38] <kojack> i can ask my jolicloud questions here
[23:39] <oka> rautamiekka, do you have a login shell on the system?
[23:39] <Gryllida> Sego: aapplications - software center
[23:39] <kojack> what is Digsby
[23:39] <Gryllida> (in gnome)
[23:39] <Gryllida> !Digsby
[23:39] <Gryllida> .oops
[23:39] <slidinghorn> Sego, digsby isn't a program manager, it's an instant messaging/social media app.  gwibber or empathy might be good for you
[23:39] <kojack> oh ok
[23:39] <rautamiekka> oka: I were telling him my experience, if you thought I had the problem.
[23:40] <Sego> Gryllida,kojack: It's a prgram that you set up all your account in.
[23:40] <FabParma> Oer: ok, but synaptic does not told me if i want or not. in more i have 3gb of ram ...
[23:40] <Gryllida> Hello, why do any NEW files I save to a windows share show 'access denied' warning when that Windows  user tries to open them, while me just editing existing files does not make any problems?
[23:40] <BluesKaj> !gwibber
[23:40] <Gryllida> Sego: ok
[23:40] <Gryllida> !empathy
[23:40] <oka> rautamiekka, ok, thought you wanted to run dpkg --set-selections <package.list to save it
[23:40] <Sego> Ok, thanks.
[23:40] <Plasma> Gryllida: Default file permissions? xD
[23:40] <askhader> Gryllida: What file system type?
[23:41] <FabParma> Oer: ok, but Ubuntu Software Center does not told me if i want or not. in more i have 3gb of ram ...
[23:41] <kojack> I am on Jolicloud
[23:41] <Oer> FabParma, ubuntu update should have ..
[23:41] <Oer> check the history in update
[23:41] <askhader> kojack: Probably not.
[23:43] <Plasma> This is the error message I receive from the installer, can anyone assist? http://pastebin.com/zgM78d62
[23:44] <Plasma> It's one of the free CDs I ordered and it's barely been used, so I don't understand. :(
[23:44] <askhader> It may be simpler to reburn another.
[23:44] <coz_> Plasma,  as it says   it is most likely a bad cd
[23:45] <coz_> Plasma,  did you run the check cd option
[23:45] <askhader> You can of course try to fix this by hand.
[23:45] <osmosis> i got some strange error about   echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs
[23:45] <Plasma> No I haven't.
[23:45] <Plasma> And I can't just take it out right now because I'm booted into a Live Session.
[23:46] <FabParma> "Ubuntu Software Center" has installed w/o any reason an permission this kernel: "Linux 2.6.32-23-generic-pae"?  In more I have 3GB of RAM, so I don't understand the reason to install it on my machine. I am sure that I am not intentionally installed this kernel. How its possible that its present on my PC?
[23:46] <askhader> Plasma: Do you have a USB stick?
[23:46] <BluesKaj> Plasma:  what kind of platform did you order , 32 or 64 bit , I got the same error when I mistakenly tried to install a 64 bit version on a 32 bit pc
[23:46] <coz_> Plasma,  ok  well... I would suggest rebooting  and chooseing the check cd options not the others
[23:46] <Plasma> Yeah, but my PC won't boot up to USB.
[23:46] <coz_> Plasma,  oh
[23:46] <Plasma> BluesKaj: 32bit, desktop edition
[23:46] <askhader> FabParma: Do you get the "software update" pop ups?
[23:46] <trojan_spike> huh ,, pc wont boot usb?? boot order even?
[23:47] <BluesKaj> ok Plasma , perhaps you got a defective disk
[23:47] <askhader> Plasma: no cds around huh?
[23:47] <coz_> Plasma,  do you have another system to burn the cd again?
[23:47] <deco> i have ubuntu installed on my laptop but i want lubuntu now how do i remove ubuntu so i can keep just lubuntu ?
[23:47] <Plasma> Yeah, I have no CDs to burn to that I can find.
[23:47] <coz_> Plasma,  ah ok
[23:47] <bob_> can someone jsut tell me the commands on how to set a root password in terminal
[23:47] <Plasma> I'm going to clean and check the disk. I'll be back in a while.
[23:47] <Oer> FabParma, if system memory, + cache processor, + videomemory, + audiomemory is more than 4096 mb, PAE is used
[23:47] <trojan_spike> get wubi ??
[23:47] <askhader> Plasma: Hold on
[23:47] <Plasma> askhader: Ok
[23:47] <Giacia95> ita?
[23:48] <Giacia95> ita
[23:48] <Giacia95> ciao
[23:48] <Gryllida> Plasma, askhader: "Default file permissions?" No idea ; :What file system type?" NTFS
[23:48] <Plasma> Gryllida: Yes, NTFS.
[23:49] <askhader> Plasma: Hm I'm afraid you're out of luck. Best try to clean the disk
[23:49] <Plasma> There was some terminal command I seen that can change them, something like cacl, you'll have to google it though.
[23:49] <Plasma> askhader: Ok :(
[23:50] <coz_> deco,   did you get that lubuntu command?
[23:50] <Gryllida> Plasma: my question "Hello, why do any NEW files I save to a windows share show 'access denied' warning when that Windows user tries to open them, while me just editing existing files does not make any problems?" and I am completely unsure how to google it
[23:50] <Plasma> "How to change windows file permission settings"?
[23:50] <FabParma> Oer:  3gb ram, 512mb vga, audio is integrated i dont know
[23:50] <askhader> Gryllida: Do you know the 'cd' command?
[23:50] <Gryllida> askhader: yes
[23:51] <askhader> Gryllida: cd into the root dir of the windows partition.
[23:51] <Plasma> Gryllida: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/cacls.mspx
[23:51] <Mehtrala> has anyone ever tryed to do the same has ready boost, but in linux?
[23:51] <trojan_spike> plasma,, folder properties / security
[23:52] <Gryllida> askhader: 'bash: cd: smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/: No such file or directory'
[23:52] <askhader> o.o;;
[23:52] <Plasma> Back in a bit.
[23:52] <Gryllida> (I acccess that machine by ip)
[23:52] <askhader> ah
[23:52] <Jordan_U> Mehtrala: Basically you just put a swap file on a flash drive and you're done, it probably won't help much if at all with performance though.
[23:52] <askhader> not sure then.
[23:52] <bob_> how do I get root privliges for a wile? with out using terminal
[23:52] <Guest51308> is there anyway for me to copy win 7 from my notebook to my netbook that has linux on it
[23:52] <askhader> bob_: sudo su
[23:52] <askhader> oh
[23:52] <askhader> Why not use the terminal?
[23:52] <Gryllida> bob_: why without terminal?
[23:53] <Gryllida> !terminal
[23:53] <Jordan_U> Mehtrala: And it's a great way to wear out your flash drive.
[23:53] <Gryllida> :)
[23:53] <Mehtrala> Jordan_U: why not? not has much has it helps in XP or vista?
[23:53] <Agu10_> Terminal is for advanced users
[23:53] <askhader> Agu10_: Hardly.
[23:53] <Agu10_> WinIdiots can't use the terminal
[23:53] <bob_> because i need to type the password in a text box in to install a driver
[23:53] <trojan_spike> all u can do is back up your windows 7 , then restoree onto other notebook
[23:53] <askhader> Every informed Linux user should be able to navigate the terminal.
[23:53] <askhader> bob_: so?
[23:53] <askhader> bob_: type the password in.
[23:53] <Gryllida> Agu10_: *cough* I've been using windows for 10 years and felt ok with terminal on my first linux day in june this year
[23:53] <bob_> what is it?
[23:54] <MSHughes> Agu10_, I digagree it is for advanced users, should be for every Linux user
[23:54] <Jordan_U> Mehtrala: I don't think that it helps Vista signifigantly either.
[23:54] <askhader> bob_: Are you on the livecd?
[23:54] <Mehtrala> k
[23:54] <Giacia95> ita??
[23:54] <Agu10_> Gryllida, but you're not a winidiot then
[23:54] <Giacia95> come si va su ubuntu it?
[23:54] <Gryllida> bob_: applications - accessories - terminal
[23:54] <bob_> no its a complete install
[23:54] <askhader> bob_: Then you set your password during installation.
[23:54] <askhader> Or whoever installed did.
[23:54] <maco> !it | Giacia95
[23:54] <bob_> i know how to do it in termanal i jsut use sudo -i
[23:54] <actionParsnip> yo yo yo
[23:54] <Mehtrala> Jordan_U: Can i get dimm slots connectable trought the USB  ?
[23:55] <guilboc> hi
[23:55] <askhader> bob_: okay
[23:55] <EdmundF> lol
[23:55] <askhader> bob_: Get root in the terminal
[23:55] <askhader> and do passwd bob
[23:55] <askhader> And then bob's password will be the root password that you set
[23:55] <makish> somebody who has any hanging experience with the latest VirtualBox?
[23:55] <maco> bob_: if youre able to do sudo -i, then you clearly know your user's password
[23:55] <trojan_spike> i use v-box
[23:55] <deco> makish: what guest ?
[23:55] <actionParsnip> bob_: yuo can boot to root recovery mode then run: passwd bob
[23:55] <maco> bob_: its the same one you put in when prompted
[23:56] <makish> Mandriva
[23:56] <askhader> actionParsnip: such a big security design flaw =/
[23:56] <makish> deco, Mandriva
[23:56] <deco> makish: hmmm it's working fine here
[23:56] <actionParsnip> askhader: its a good backdoor though]
[23:56] <actionParsnip> askhader: you can reset windows passwords with Linux too ;)
[23:56] <maco> askhader: if someone's got physical access, you're boned anyway
[23:56] <deco> makish: does it just stop responding ? or it just slow
[23:56] <askhader> actionParsnip: Perfect backdoor, that's the issue.
[23:56] <askhader> maco: Perhaps you are, sir.
[23:56] <GuerreroPorVeni> Anyone can help me with ubuntu 10.04 install?  I just finished Inatlling it , and when it says Installation Complete i hit restart now, and it came out a lad of errors , black screen with many errors, what should i do? I installed it from livecd ubuntu 10.04 32bits
[23:56] <actionParsnip> askhader: well users forget passwords and if there is no backdoor the account is screwed
[23:57] <Gryllida> So what do I do for files that I put onto windows partition to have some permissions for windows user to be able to read and edit them?
[23:57] <askhader> actionParsnip: I'm not against backdoors, I'm just saying that the way it is now is pretty useless.
[23:57] <Gryllida> s/partition/share
[23:57] <makish> deco, hmm strange..i tried now for 3 times to install the Mandriva 2010.1 for testing...the setup hangs all the time...the same with smooth_wall setup
[23:57] <trojan_spike> thats normal , installation
[23:57] <actionParsnip> GuerreroPorVeni: if the install completed then just reset the PC. should be fine
[23:57] <oka> if you care about security, setup an encrypted partition
[23:57] <deco> makish: maybe it's a bad mandriva iso
[23:57] <bob_> askhander it didnt work, like the password still doesnt work
[23:57] <maco> askhader: recovery mode wont work if you have a root password set, but then oh wait...just change the boot line to include init=/bin/bash and again it doesnt matter...  so you set a boot password in the bios, and they pop out the cmos battery or just pull the the hard drive.  security stops at physical access
[23:57] <actionParsnip> oka: I care but i dont encrypt stuff, causes to many headaches
[23:57] <makish> deco, hmm..downloaded it direclty from the site
[23:57] <macfire> Good evening, I am having trouble installing ubuntu 10:04, type it seems he does not find the driver for your video card, you know, someone could give me a help?
[23:57] <GuerreroPorVeni> ok but do i restart it with the restart button or do i type /quit in the   command line.?
[23:58] <deco> makish: it can still get messed up if you have a bad hdd for example
[23:58] <askhader> maco: Ever heard of data encryption?
[23:58] <actionParsnip> macfire: use the safe vga boot option
[23:58] <oka> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto
[23:58] <trojan_spike> yes,, u can restart
[23:58] <maco> askhader: yep. ever heard of pulling out RAM to steal the encryption keys?
[23:58] <nejode> GuerreroPorVeni: sudo reboot
[23:58] <deco> makish: when you setup the v-machine did you select mandriva from the list of distros ?
[23:58] <oka> if anyone can unscrew your disk they can read the data anyway
[23:58] <GuerreroPorVeni> ok i am restarting will tell you what happens next one sec :D
[23:58] <Mehtrala> Jordan_U: it whould probably be on the web.. docs, ..if that was possible
[23:58] <makish> deco, hmm dont think so..the hd is pretty new...
[23:58] <askhader> maco: That depends on your implementation.
[23:58] <makish> deco, yeah
[23:58] <deco> makish: oh hmmm that's weird
[23:59] <Oer> makish check bios for sata - ide modus AHCI, turn it off.
[23:59] <maco> askhader: it depends on you guarding your ram for 5 minutes after powering down
[23:59] <osmosis> BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s! [kdmflush:275]
[23:59] <makish> Oer, ok
[23:59] <deco> makish: have you tried a different distro just to be sure it's nto v-box ?
[23:59] <deco> it's not*
[23:59] <askhader> maco: It's not that simple. int retrieve-keys(ram); does not exist.
[23:59] <makish> deco, i will do that..thats my next step..=)
[23:59] <deco> makish: okay :)
[23:59] <macfire> the video is totally mangled, I can not see his options, anyone know how to solve this problem?
