[00:00] <mistermatt> thanks
[00:00] <Jordan_U> pvl1: isomaster is pretty good.
[00:00] <darolu> johndee: run "gnome-volume-properties" and disable "mount removable * option
[00:00] <bawn> you can shut off the nvidia drivers, you just wont have 3d acceleration and such without them
[00:00] <pondera> in ubuntu is there a way to scal the UI(windows) down in size ?
[00:00] <pvl1> Jordan_U, thank you, ill look into it
[00:00] <Jordan_U> pvl1: You're welcome.
[00:01] <johndee> darolu: Somehow I don't have such thing
[00:01] <EGL-Owner|AD7> CAN ANYONE HELP ME!!>!???
[00:01] <johndee> darolu: There is gnome-volume-control, but that's prolly the volume applet
[00:01] <bawn> EGL-Owner|AD7, tell us what you need help with
[00:02] <EGL-Owner|AD7> Bawn: i need help with my mouse
[00:02] <EGL-Owner|AD7> Bawn: when i open firefox i cant click anymore
[00:02] <EGL-Owner|AD7> bawn: and i have to use my keyboard -.-!
[00:02] <bawn> click anything out of firefox?
[00:02] <EGL-Owner|AD7> bawn: no i cant
[00:02] <pondera> Anyone here know how i can scale down the User Interface in Ubuntu ?
[00:02] <darolu> johndee: uhmmm probably changed in lucid; well you can always control it via fstab file
[00:02] <bawn> odd
[00:02] <EGL-Owner|AD7> Bawn: also when i open any windows
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> Bawn: i could show you if you knew a sort of teamviewer
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> for ubuntu
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> or somehting
[00:03] <bawn> EGL-Owner|AD7, it works thru wine
[00:03] <bawn> lets do that
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> ok let me switch partitions
[00:03] <bawn> k
[00:03] <MaRk-I> there's a beta teamviewer for linux
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> do you have msn or something?
[00:03] <EGL-Owner|AD7> ok sounds good
[00:03] <bawn> skype
[00:04] <EGL-Owner|AD7> hmmm
[00:04] <EGL-Owner|AD7> ill get xchat
[00:04] <johndee> darolu: Yep. Removable USB drives? I think something like HAL is responsible for this inhuman behaviour, but there's no service control for it :\
[00:04] <bawn> thats what im using right now
[00:04] <soreau> ! help | EGL-Owner|AD7
[00:04] <balgarath> any unicorn users here that have gotten this before? - uninitialized constant CHIMNEY
[00:05] <MaRk-I> johndee: you can disable automount through policy kit... or pol.kit
[00:05] <MaRk-I> look it up
[00:05] <bawn> ! av | bawn
[00:06] <pondera> is there a way i can scale down the size of the user interface in ubuntu ?
[00:06] <sebsebseb> pondera: meaning what exactly?
[00:07] <bawn> pondera, it sounds like you need to have a higher resolution
[00:07] <darolu> johndee: well the catch is Lucid doesn't use HAL anymore, anyways, press ALT+F2 and type (without quotation marks) "gconf-editor" there navigate to apps-nautilus-preferences and sdisable the "media automount" option
[00:07] <pondera> well i can get my resolution higher so i though maybe i could scale down everything else
[00:07] <pondera> i cant**
[00:08] <pondera> i cant get it anyhigher then 1280x800
[00:08] <bawn> pondera, i can't help you from here, I am no expert at that type of stuff
[00:08] <pondera> i see well thanks anyway
[00:08] <mistermatt> wicd said it couldn't get an IP address.
[00:09] <xorwhy> pkill x; pkill y; pkill z does not kill x, y and z
[00:09] <mistermatt> so maybe there is another problem, that isn't ubuntu related
[00:09] <mistermatt> but it worked on windows 7
[00:09] <BraddersK> darolu: ok then, reboot... here goes nothing!
[00:10] <johndee> darolu: I thought so too, but for some reason it is here and running. I just tried killing it, but automount still works. Hence, something else is monitoring devices. In mtab every mounted device has uhelper=udisks mount option to it. Looks like udisks is the one that does it. Not much info on it tho :\
[00:11] <xorwhy> pkill x; pkill y; pkill z does not kill x, y and z. What single line command will kill these three theoretical apps?
[00:11] <johndee> MaRk-I: Thing is I don't even see any polkit tools on my system :\
[00:12] <grendal_prime> ok what happened to grub?
[00:12] <Oer> tell us, grendal_prime ?
[00:12] <grendal_prime> i need to change the order on this machine.  I want it to default to the windows installation (these guys need windows primairly and the ubuntu if being used as a diag system)
[00:12] <aeon-ltd> xorwhy: random guess but use && instead of ;?
[00:13] <MaRk-I> johndee: it's under System/Administration/Authorizations
[00:13] <grendal_prime> i use to edit the menu.lst file and just change the order
[00:13] <bawn> thank you all for being the help center of all of ubuntu
[00:13] <grendal_prime> now we have to use some gui thing to adjust this?
[00:13] <mistermatt> I wonder if I need a new router
[00:13] <Oer> grub-update
[00:13] <mistermatt> maybe that is it
[00:13] <xorwhy> aeon-ltd: if I disconnect from this channel, consider your suggestion a success :)
[00:13] <grendal_prime> do i need xorg installed for that oer?
[00:14] <johndee> MaRk-I: No such thing here either. Are we both talking about Lucid? :P
[00:14] <daniel> hey guys I got problem I got noise in my headphones Im using alsa.
[00:14] <MaRk-I> lol
[00:14] <hiexpo> lol
[00:14] <grendal_prime> i guess what i mean is it like a curses based gui or...what the hell is it (before i run it
[00:14] <grendal_prime> )
[00:15] <johndee> MaRk-I: Anyway, polkit controls who can or can, if I get it right.
[00:15] <johndee> or can't do something in the system
[00:15] <johndee> *
[00:15] <xorwhy> The command structure works perfectly, but it does not work when I set the string as a custom launcher in gnome-panel.
[00:16] <MaRk-I> johndee:  correct and there you can disable automount removable media
[00:16] <Oer> grendal_prime, no sudo update-grub does not require a desktop, i used to do this in terminal
[00:17] <mistermatt> what do I do when wicd can't get me on my wireless/
[00:17] <grendal_prime> i dont see that it generated anything as far as a menu.lst
[00:18] <hipzzz> hi
[00:18] <Jordan_U> grendal_prime: sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober && sudo update-grub
[00:18] <Jordan_U> !grub2 | grendal_prime
[00:18] <wildbat>  is there any text editor for linux that support multi-line regex search/replace?
[00:19] <FoolsRun> Hi, I installed Edubuntu today on a server using the "whole hard disk" option and I don't seem to get a GRUB menu at boot. Is it possible it wasn't installed? The machine boots (mostly, it seems to fail to boot every second time)
[00:19] <Jordan_U> wildbat: vim and emacs, and I'm sure there are more graphical options as well.
[00:19] <Jordan_U> FoolsRun: Hold shift during boot to get the grub menu.
[00:20] <FoolsRun> Jordan_U: I'll try that. Since I'm here, any insight into why every _second_ boot, I get the stuck-at-blinking-cursor?
[00:20] <johndee> MaRk-I: Okay. Funny thing is there are tons of forum post about how lucid won't automount and not a single working solution on how to disable it. I disable it in gconf, in nautilus's prefs, added hald rule (which is not used anyway)
[00:21] <grendal_prime> grrrrrrrrrrrr
[00:21] <mistermatt> where did actionturnip go :(
[00:21] <pondera> can anyone tell me how to get more (higer) resolutions then whats available by default ?
[00:21] <Jordan_U> FoolsRun: Is it consitently every other boot or just about a 50% chance of working or not?
[00:21] <grendal_prime> i just need to set the primary boot to the windows chain loader.
[00:21] <johndee> It still does automount, even if it not automatically opening a nautilus window. What an achievement :P
[00:21] <MaRk-I> johndee: I was going to mention that
[00:21] <Jordan_U> grendal_prime: sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober && sudo update-grub
[00:21] <FoolsRun> Jordan_U: I only had time to try it four times, it happend the first and third time
[00:21] <ekzp> CAN SOMEONE HELP ME!?
[00:22] <hiexpo> !ask | ekzp
[00:22] <BraddersK> Ok, i have tried using testdisk to restore a broken ext4 partition and i get the grub error - partition not found/exist. Does anyone know how to use testdisk properly, and maybe something clever with fsck? Thanks
[00:22] <judgen> ekzp, just got back, what is the problem.
[00:22] <ekzp> umm
[00:22] <ekzp> well
[00:22] <ekzp> do you have teamviewer?
[00:22] <ekzp> i could show you
[00:22] <ekzp> i cant click
[00:22] <FloodBot4> ekzp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:23] <judgen> ezrafree, teamviewer?
[00:23] <Jordan_U> FoolsRun: See if you can reproduce it when holding shift, to see if the freeze is happening before or after grub, also try booting the recovery mode entry instead of the normal one as it will give a more verbose boot.
[00:23] <ekzp> judgen: i cant go to anouther application
[00:23] <ekzp> judgen: once im at one
[00:23] <ekzp> because my left click
[00:23] <ekzp> judgen: wont work anymore so idk what to do =\
[00:23] <mistermatt> I am trying to troubleshoot my wireless on linux. I tried connecting via the connection manager, but no dice. i can see it on the list of available networks but I can't connect. I tried removing encryption, but I still can't. I tried wicd, but i wasn't able to get an ip address. What is the next step here?
[00:23] <slidinghorn> !enter | ekzp
[00:24] <FoolsRun> Jordan_U: Recovery Mode will only be available if Grub is available, I assume. The boot seems _really_ fast, too. It could be the hardware but when it works there's no splash and boot is SUPER fast.
[00:24] <judgen> ezrafree, please use one lines, as much as you can or the bot's will ban you by automation to detect flooding
[00:24] <FoolsRun> Jordan_U: not sure if that's indicative of anything
[00:24] <judgen> ekzp, please use one lines, as much as you can or the bot's will ban you by automation to detect flooding

[00:25] <grendal_prime> forget it..i dont have time for this now..ill fix it later.
[00:25] <judgen> ekzp, url to the app or functionality you want?
[00:25] <ekzp> ok
[00:25] <mistermatt> slidinghorn, what is ndiswrapper?
[00:26] <slidinghorn> it's an application that uses windows wireless drivers to work in linux
[00:26] <BraddersK> hey, i have tried using testdisk to fix a broken ext4 partition and i get the grub error - partition not found. Does anyone know how to use testdisk properly, and maybe something clever with fsck? Thanks
[00:26] <judgen> mistermatt, It is a way to use network windows drivers in linux
[00:26] <mistermatt> I think my drivers should be in the kernel though
[00:27] <mistermatt> I could be wrong though, I'll give this a shot
[00:28] <dapeamel> hey guys how do I autoreconfigure my soundcard?
[00:28] <ekzp> judgen: when im on one screen im locked to it unless i right click on that screen and then right lcick on anouther screen then my mouse buttons will work again
[00:28] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: How was the partition broken, what did you do with testdisk, and what did testdisk report?
[00:29] <dapeamel> hey guys how do I autoreconfigure my soundcard?
[00:29] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: I broke it by attempting to resize it, via the live cd (a stupid move, i know)
[00:30] <mgolisch> what did testdisk do wrong?
[00:30] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: I wouldn't say it's a stupid move to try to resize a partition with a LiveCD, not having important data from it backed up might be though :)
[00:31] <runningamok> Question: Would reinstalling Ubuntu (over itself) preserve the GRUB dual boot?
[00:31] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: What tool did you use to resize the partition, and what errors if any did it report?
[00:31] <Jordan_U> runningamok: Yes.
[00:31] <runningamok> Thanks
[00:31] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: indeed, at least i had little to lose. gparted, and there were no errors.
[00:32] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: What did you do with testdisk and what did it report?
[00:33] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: it only found the linux partition + swap, not the new windows one that i created.
[00:34] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: Do you think fsck could help?
[00:34] <Bsims> Is there a way to automaticaly tell apt/synaptic to automatically download all -dev packages for all libraries?
[00:34] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Other than grub, is there any indication of anything wrong with the partition? Can you mount it?
[00:35] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: i cant...
[00:36] <mgolisch> so it doenst mount?
[00:37] <tenochslb>  is it ok to have more than one kernel on this directory? /lib/modules/
[00:37] <mgolisch> tenochslb: sure
[00:37] <yokobr> is there any way to use my sli mobo with two completely different cards, with one card as a "graphics processor" and the other for "physics"?
[00:38] <ShifftyOneJr> I cannot move windows (programs) between monitors.  I shut off all the compiz effects and it still doesn't work.  Is there a way to do it besides try and moving it off screen?
[00:38] <tenochslb> mglisch, thanks for your response
[00:38] <johndee> Better. You can kill udisks processes for one %)
[00:38] <infid> if i run wireshark as my normal user, it doesn't show anything under 'interfaces' and if i gksudo it it says running as root is dangerous. what should i do?
[00:38] <yokobr> infid, be dangerous.
[00:38] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: btw I get an error just like this one when running fsck http://paste.ubuntu.com/458066/
[00:39] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Ok, run "sudo fsck -f /dev/sdXY 2>&1 | tee fsck.log"
[00:39] <karmapolis> Hello. I have my Lucid set with a US-International keyboard layout. It works fine everywhere except virt-manager. So when I use it with a kvm virtual machine, my dead keys are *really* dead: they're ignored completely as if they had not been pressed. This kvm virtuam machine is known to work with dead keys in another host, so the issue is either Ubuntu's kvm or Ubuntu's virt-manager. Can anybody help me?
[00:39] <mgolisch> ShifftyOneJr: how did you configure yur screens? you cant move them between screens if its seperate x displays
[00:39] <slidinghorn> ShifftyOneJr, As far as I'm aware, that's a compiz cube effect...without that enabled, you have to do it by right clicking and selecting "move to workspace"
[00:39] <mistermatt> that guide is too complicated for me
[00:39] <slidinghorn> ShifftyOneJr, ignore me...read your question wrong
[00:39] <tenochslb> mgolisch, yea i am trying to get some help on my sound card
[00:39] <slidinghorn> mistermatt, well if you want your wireless to work, that's how to do it
[00:39] <ShifftyOneJr> I believe it is separate x displays.
[00:40] <ShifftyOneJr> let me load nvidia settings.
[00:40] <mgolisch> ShifftyOneJr: thats the reason then
[00:40] <mistermatt> slidinghorn, I think that's why linux is never going to take off :(
[00:40] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: "e2fsck: need terminal for interactive repairs"
[00:40] <mgolisch> ShifftyOneJr: you cannot move windows between screens if they use seperate x displays
[00:40] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Are you sure that the partition is still sda1, and wasn't renumbered when you created the windows partition? What is the output of "sudo blkid"?
[00:40] <soreau> ShifftyOneJr: Sounds like you have setup two separate X screens, in which case you cannot move windows between screens
[00:40] <slidinghorn> mistermatt, not the fault of ubuntu/linux -- blame the manufacturers for not supporting all systems and being in M$'s pocket
[00:40] <ShifftyOneJr> OKay.  How do I need to set them up?
[00:40] <mistermatt> I think it might be my router
[00:41] <soreau> ShifftyOneJr: Which graphics driver are you using?
[00:41] <ShifftyOneJr> nvidia current
[00:41] <mgolisch> ShifftyOneJr: select the other option, twinview or whatever nvidia calls it or use xorgs xinerama feature
[00:41] <tenochslb> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/600041
[00:42] <soreau> ShifftyOneJr: use twinview
[00:42] <ShifftyOneJr> Yes Twin view, but doesn't that make it show the same desktop on both screens?
[00:42] <Bsims> Is there a way to automaticaly tell apt/synaptic to automatically download all -dev packages for all libraries? I build some things from source and it would save the ./configure, growl, apt-get, repeat dance
[00:42] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/458068/
[00:42] <MamboKing> hello all, on redhat based systems you are able to add network card config in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, how do you add configuration for eth1 to ubuntu server from the console?
[00:42] <soreau> If you try xinerama, it will disable composite (which means compiz wont work)
[00:42] <profxavier> anyone able to develop for iphone apps under Ubuntu ?
[00:42] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: grr, there's probably a cleaner way to get the output logged (if you get to a point where it actually starts fixing things there will be a lot of output), but this should work. Run "script" then run fsck, then "exit" and a log of the entire session will be saved to "typescrypt"
[00:42] <profxavier> I have been following: http://iphonesdkdev.blogspot.com/2008/11/upgrade-vmware-image-to-ubuntu-810-for.html
[00:42] <mgolisch> ShifftyOneJr: yeah it basicaly makes one big virtual screen out of your two displays
[00:42] <ShifftyOneJr> I can pass on compiz if I can get this working.
[00:42] <profxavier> but having a few issues
[00:43] <slidinghorn> !enter | profxavier
[00:43] <soreau> ShifftyOneJr: Try twinview first
[00:43] <ShifftyOneJr> I want to be able to start a program and be able to move it between two monitors on this system like I did in Windows.
[00:43] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Ok, is /dev/sda5 possibly the partition in question?
[00:44] <ShifftyOneJr> Okay.  I will try and and come back.  Thank you.,
[00:44] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: I doubt it, since there are no sda1-4 :S

[00:52] <dugger5688> yokobr: I'm fairly certain you can't run two different gpus in an SLI setup.
[00:54] <bLiNdRaGe> ok so i'm not new to ubuntu or linux, but this is an odd one
[00:54] <bLiNdRaGe> i just installed 9.04 on my asus g73...boot, can't move wireless mouse or keyboard (or trackpad or keyboard attached to laptop)
[00:54] <yokobr> dugger5688, i do not want SLI... well, i just wanna one to process graphics, and the other to process physics
[00:54] <bLiNdRaGe> booted it up into a virtual machine, still can't move mouse or keyboard
[00:54] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Try mounting /dev/sda5, it's probably the partition you want.
[00:54] <bLiNdRaGe> can't really do anything
[00:55] <tim_> hello I am trying to set up file sharing between my Ubuntu 10.04 computer and my roommates Windows 7 computer.

[00:55] <pedahzur> Simple question, I think, but I just realized I don't know how to do this.  If I have a route table with, say two interfaces, the only route that lists an actual gateway address is the default route.  How do I discover the gateway for a non-default destination (as it's listed as <IP_ADDRESS> by route -n)?
[00:56] <bLiNdRaGe> ubuntu 10.04 worked, but i had issues with wireless and vmtools so i downgraded to 9.04
[00:56] <bLiNdRaGe> think it's just compat issue with my g73? although that wouldn't explain why it wouldn't work in a vm
[00:56] <marks__> yeah yeah mirc
[00:56] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: Ok, look at what's mounted in /media.
[00:56] <dugger5688> yokobr: Then I have no idea. But I'm pretty certain that the Linux Nvidia drivers don't simulate physics.
[00:57] <Jordan_U> BraddersK: You probably just need to re-install grub since the partition number changed.

[00:57] <WXZ> and get it to automagically copy to clipboard
[00:57] <BraddersK> Jordan_U: Its empty. I tried grub ages ago. I got Error 15.
[01:15] <simon> se me fue la luz por 6 horas y media
[01:16] <simon> im reinstalled ubuntu,and when i reboot it dont use my old configuration of my /home partition
[01:16] <Typos_King> pedahzur:   .... I see.... hmmmm.... can't say.. .maybe something like Wireshark may help :|
[01:17] <simon> the archives are there.but ubuntu dont use them
[01:18] <pedahzur> Typos_King: OK, thanks.
[01:19] <lfms> hi i work with a open source ERP, i want to create a apt-get repository for the users download and install de system. Can anyone help-me?
[01:21] <simon> any help :(?
[01:22] <happyface> is there a way to turn on buffering in the console? (i'm getting flickering)
[01:23] <otak> simon:I dont really understand your question. where are your archives?
[01:23] <no-name-> is there a way to change the terminal background transperacny with a command rather than using the gui?
[01:23] <simon> in /home partition,and they are there
[01:23] <simon> but the themes and configurations dont apply to ubuntu
[01:24] <simon> y reinstalled ubuntu using old partitions
[01:24] <otak> simon:ok...
[01:24] <simon> but themes and configurations didnt apply when i reboot
[01:25] <otak> simon:have you mounted the /home partition in the right place?
[01:25] <unknownsoldi> Could someone help me get my Logitech diNovo Edge keyboard working in Linux Mint?
[01:25] <simon> yes i did
[01:25] <simon> persoal folder is the same
[01:26] <IdleOne> !mintsupport > unknownsoldi
[01:26] <judgen> I have coded for 12 hours, soon time for some sleep. it is 02:25 so i deserve it i think.
[01:26] <freedom> hi for everybody
[01:26] <freedom> may some help plz
[01:26] <unknownsoldi> Nobody is responding over there. :(
[01:26] <unknownsoldi> Thanks anyways.

[01:27] <freedom> i have hp pavilion dv 6000 how can i config my webcam
[01:28] <freedom> anybody know?
[01:38] <jimmieskips> hey hey i am a noob with linux and need a hand with an install on a wireless usb device
[01:38] <otak> simon: well if the old partition is mounted right and permissions have not changed it's probably beyond me. ubuntu uses drive blkid no,s not just device folders...
[01:38] <wildbat> !wifi | jimmieskips, read this.
[01:38] <jimmieskips> thanks
[01:38] <simon> otak, icheked blkid and fstab and all is right
[01:38] <judgen> jimmieskips, this is probably my last post for today, but do an lspci in an terminal an look for the wireless chip. People are more helpful in matters that they peronally have experienced.
[01:38] <judgen> if they know the chip, they are better to fix problems.
[01:38] <judgen> like in my instance i have a lot of of experience with ralink chips
[01:38] <MaRk-I> jimmieskips: if it's a usb device type lsusb
[01:38] <judgen> jimmieskips, and if it is an 27*xx or a 28*xx chip from ralink you must blacklist the other driver to get it to work.
[01:38] <simon> any help with my problem =(?
[01:39] <ace_> anybody know of a good open source irc chat that will run in Windows 7?
[01:40] <d3ngar> simon: what problem?
[01:40] <dotben_> ace_ I've always like Chatzilla for Firefox. but this is Ubuntu chan, so you might want to check over on a Win7 chan
[01:41] <m1chael> does anyone know how i could produce a text document with "page breaks" ? i would be using something like python to loop through a bunch of text files (each file represents a page) ...
[01:41] <Out`Of`Control> ace_ pidgin
[01:41] <Typos_King> ace_:   kvirc, pidgin offhand
[01:41] <dotben_> what is the best way to discover what process is responsible for a connection in netstat
[01:41] <ace_> dotben I want to be able to get this channel but do it on Windows
[01:41] <dotben_> my box has started to make connections that I don't recognize but there is no pid in netstat :(
[01:41] <ace_> OUt: pidgen?
[01:41] <ultimate> I just downloaded UE 2.7 and i can not get the wine program to work
[01:42] <MaRk-I> dotben_: netstat -h
[01:42] <xangua> !ultimate > ultimate
[01:42] <simon> i reinstalled ubuntu.and i use my old home partition
[01:42] <ultimate> I had return to castle wolfenstien working before
[01:42] <mgolisch> dotben_: use the switch that lists the process with the connections?
[01:42] <WXZ> ace_ pidgin is an open source application on which you can make irc accounts
[01:42] <ultimate> what private message?
[01:42] <simon> but when i reboot it dint use my old setting and themes
[01:42] <mgolisch> i think its -p
[01:43] <ace_> ty all very much

[01:44] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get install pidgin
[01:44] <WXZ> he's using windows I think hiexpo
[01:44] <Typos_King> dotben_:   it gives the pid and app name for most, not all, but pid for all
[01:44] <hiexpo> oh
[01:44] <ace_> I might try it on Ubuntu after I try it on windows thanks
[01:44] <ultimate> anyone ebver try OSX in virtual box?

[01:45] <r3c4ll> Hi everyone
[01:45] <d3ngar> The setup is more like a chat programme, but it's got a pretty decent IRC function too
[01:45] <ultimate> hello
[01:45] <r3c4ll> I need to know if the Open Source version of Zimbra (NOT Network Standard or Pro) can manage/admin/offer multiple domains in a single installation
[01:45] <r3c4ll> I mean (excuse my bad english) i have only one physical server... and i want to know if i can install Zimbra Open Source Edition on it an have 3 domains of email. (ej. mydom1.com, mydom2.net and otherdom.org)???
[01:45] <ace_> ah d3 thanks for the info
[01:46] <hiexpo> after 15 years of experiments have found xchat to be the best  for this
[01:46] <ultimate> hello?
[01:46] <r3c4ll> somebody know it?
[01:46] <WXZ> ok, different approach
[01:46] <hiexpo> !hello | ultimate
[01:46] <WXZ> my scrnshot button doesn't work
[01:46] <mgrandi> Does anyone know if the "encrypt home folder" option double the amount of space used to store files on the hard drive?
[01:46] <ImaLamer> hiexpo, how about paging through channels with the KB?
[01:46] <h00k> !anyone | ultimate
[01:46] <Typos_King> ace_:   http://webscripts.softpedia.com/screenshots/KVIrc-14400.png   kvirc
[01:46] <WXZ> when I press it and try to paste in gnupaint
[01:46] <WXZ> nothing happens
[01:46] <h00k> mgrandi: no, it doesn't
[01:47] <ultimate> how can you get wine to run windows games?
[01:47] <mgrandi> h00k, you sure?
[01:47] <mgrandi> http://imgur.com/rBpRc.png
[01:47] <ace_> ty Typos
[01:47] <hiexpo> ImaLamer,  no never done that
[01:47] <h00k> mrunknown: it doesn't here
[01:47] <ImaLamer> hiexpo, love it too, but chatting keeps my hands on the keys of course :/
[01:48] <mgrandi> so if it doesn't use 2x the space, why does baobab report that .encryptfs is using 200 gigs?
[01:50] <mgrandi> because it does, and it doesn't say there are any hard/soft links
[01:51] <h00k> mgrandi: * it doesn't here
[01:51] <mrunknown> h00k: wrong peerson.
[01:51] <mrunknown> lol
[01:51] <h00k> mrunknown: sorry, wrong tab
[01:51] <hiexpo> ImaLamer,  is it terminal
[01:51] <ultimate> FUCK THIS CHAT
[01:51] <mrunknown> mgrandi: why would it double it?
[01:51] <Typos_King> hehe
[01:51] <r3c4ll> I need to know if the Open Source version of Zimbra (NOT Network Standard or Pro) can manage/admin/offer multiple domains in a single installation
[01:51] <mrunknown> ultimate: i love you

[01:51] <mrunknown> aww
[01:51] <ImaLamer> hiexpo, i mean in xchat
[01:51] <hiexpo> ImaLamer,  oh ok
[01:51] <ImaLamer> what about upgrading grub2 in wubi...?
[01:52] <mgrandi> h00k, but again i'm saying, look at the screenshot: http://imgur.com/rBpRc.png  why does it say that its using the same space as my home folder?
[01:52] <ImaLamer> reads "cannot find /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[01:53] <mgrandi> or is this baobab freaking out
[01:54] <Random832> ImaLamer: i didn't think you were supposed to use grub in wubi
[01:54] <Random832> doesn't it use the windows bootloader?
[01:54] <Guest55606> my lan port on the back of my mobo doesnt recognize that a cable is in it. the cable is fine. i believe my drivers are fine. any way to tell if its the port thats screwed?
[01:54] <ImaLamer> Random832, yeah, but the apt-get upgrade has installed it - it's asking me to create a menu.lst
[01:54] <ImaLamer> Guest55606, ping it first
[01:55] <no-name-> is it a bad idea to $ mv lost+found .lost+found (to hide it)
[01:55] <Random832> no-name-: yes.
[01:55] <Random832> maybe
[01:56] <Random832> i think fsck will recreate it if it needs to?
[01:56] <no-name-> is there a way to hide it without changning the name?
[01:56] <mgrandi> no.
[01:56] <Random832> no-name-: why do you want to?
[01:56] <Random832> why are you doing ls in the root directory often enough to care?
[01:56] <no-name-> cause i don't like it there lol
[01:56] <mgrandi> Random832, it will do it on any ext3 drive
[01:56] <mgrandi> so if he has like a external usb drive that uses it, it will be there
[01:57] <h00k> mgrandi: I'm not terribly familiar with what the 'mark' folder or what is in there, but that appears to be where most of the space is taken
[01:57] <mgrandi> h00k, thats my home folder
[01:58] <h00k> mgrandi: dig deeper into that and see what appears so large
[01:58] <mgrandi> i know whats in my own home folder
[01:58] <mgrandi> im just curious on why .encryptfs is the exact same size as my home folder and has the exact amount of files as my home folder
[01:59] <mgrandi> it looks like it has an encrypted version of each file and its doing some sort of weird voodoo magic to make it appear not encrpyted?
[01:59] <IConrad01> Hello, one and all.  It's cranky ol' IConrad01 again -- this time with a brand new issue.
[01:59] <IConrad01> Ack ... wrong channel.
[02:00] <milk> can anyone help my with setting up bluesmash ? i ran into some trouble when i executed install.sh but i figured out the problem and modded install.sh, but now i cant get it to complete the install without a problem
[02:00] <Ashex> Anyone have a problem of Nautilus locking up and not wanting to die?
[02:00] <jimmieskips> hey I was looking at the wifi page you showed me, I am trying to setup a asus usb-n10 adapter and some of the research i have done looks like I might run into problems could someone talk me through some of this?
[02:00] <Ashex> I've got multiple windows that are hung and I can't kill them
[02:00] <mrunknown> mgrandi: my guess is your home folder is mounting the encrypted files. So, the home folder filesize is kinda fake
[02:01] <mgrandi> mrunknown, hmm thats what i was thinking.
[02:01] <mgrandi> ok thanks =)
[02:01] <h00k> mrunknown, mgrandi: I believe that is correct, yeah. Mine 'appears' double (20.9gbx2)

[02:02] <mgrandi> ok. I was just worried for a moment.
[02:02] <h00k> if I take a look from another user that doesn't have access to it
[02:02] <r3c4ll> I need to know if the Open Source version of Zimbra (NOT Network Standard or Pro) can manage/admin/offer multiple domains in a single installation
[02:02] <mrunknown> mgrandi: just buy a few 2TB HDDs
[02:02] <r3c4ll> I mean (excuse my bad english) i have only one physical server... and i want to know if i can install Zimbra Open Source Edition on it an have 3 domains of email. (ej. mydom1.com, mydom2.net and otherdom.org)???
[02:02] <r3c4ll> somebody know it?
[02:02] <FloodBot2> r3c4ll: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:02] <mgrandi> mrunknown, i'm not made of money you know =P
[02:02] <Ashex> xangua, no luck. it's sitting as though it's processing the command
[02:02] <mrunknown> hey now, I don't even own a 1TB drive, so you are better off than me lol
[02:02] <Ashex> Wait, I got this error: (nautilus:11317): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply.
[02:02] <wookienz> it has finally happened! After 2 years of trying and failing Ubuntu is now the OS of choice. See ya Winblows 7. Now for the problems......
[02:03] <mgrandi> i have a 1 tb drive as backup, my main hd is 640 split between windows and ubuntu.
[02:03] <mrunknown> woodworks: why? I thought Windows 7 was your idea?
[02:03] <kinasbg> Lol Windows sucks
[02:04] <bazhang> !ot
[02:04] <mrunknown> mgrandi: my laptop has 500GB, desktop is only 250GB. =\
[02:04] <jimmieskips> could someone help me out with setting up a wifi usb device
[02:04] <kinasbg> Im 13 years and i use Linux Ubuntu 10.10 fluxbox
[02:04] <mrunknown> kinasbg: each has their advantages and disadvantages
[02:04] <h00k> !maverick | kinasbg
[02:04] <wookienz> so... my old winblows 7 install had two 250 raid 0 drives set up just for data. How can i get them up and running on ubuntu?
[02:04] <bazhang> kinasbg, #ubuntu+1 for maverick ; #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[02:04] <kinasbg> i know but i dont understand why people use it
[02:05] <red2kic> Does anybody here know how to mirror a website to local using wget? I tried various of commands but it didn't do the trick. :<
[02:05] <bazhang> kinasbg, this is NOT the chat channel
[02:05] <kinasbg> kk
[02:05] <mrunknown> yell at me too... lol.
[02:05] <mgrandi> red2kic, if you look at the man pages there are some commands in there for mirroring. HOWEVER its really a bad thing to do because you are essentially ddosing the website
[02:05] <mgrandi> red2kic, if you look at it, there is usually a wait time, set it to 2 seconds or else you might have the server IP ban you for a while for downloading their enitre site
[02:06] <jimmieskips> could someone help me out with setting up a wifi usb device
[02:06] <wookienz> any suggestions on an itunes replacement on ubuntu?
[02:06] <aurilliance> "FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder: MPEG AAC Audio" <- How can I fix that?
[02:06] <red2kic> mgrandi: It's just a single html (with few images) but for some reason, it didn't pull in images.
[02:06] <mrunknown> hope you don't plan on using an iPod. or at leas thave an older one
[02:06] <aurilliance> red2kic, what's up?
[02:06] <h00k> wookienz: Rhythmbox works well.
[02:06] <mgrandi> red2kic, last time i did it, there was a command to pull in required assets, like if the web page had a link to /image.jpg, it would download that too
[02:07] <red2kic> aurilliance: Nothing. You? Meh.
[02:07] <bazhang> jimmieskips, usb or pci? lsusb if the former, lspci if the latter to get the chipset; paste.ubuntu.com with the output (dont paste here)
[02:07] <aurilliance> red2kic, thought I might be able to help with your problem...
[02:08] <mgolisch> raid0 for data
[02:08] <red2kic> aurilliance: Really? I somehow doubt it because I tried many commands. :P  You're welcome to challenge my doubtful. :)
[02:08] <mgolisch> lol
[02:08] <mgolisch> :)
[02:08] <aurilliance> red2kic, I don't know what your problem is tho ;) (I joined after you, hence me asking what's up)
[02:08] <aurilliance> "FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder: MPEG AAC Audio" <- How can I fix that?
[02:08] <red2kic> aurilliance: Oh. Mirroring a simple website (a single page).
[02:08] <aurilliance> red2kic, I do that using a batch script, want me to pastebin it?
[02:12] <mgrandi> red2kic, you probably want to use --wait 2 --mirror --convert-links
[02:21] <cyberjorge> hi
[02:21] <cyberjorge> what's the best opensource Web Hosting manager I can use for linux?
[02:21] <cyberjorge> a cpanel alternative?
[02:23] <bazhang> jimmieskips, now the output of lspci please
[02:23] <samalex> also the backup drive is formatted to NTFS which LInux can write to ... good idea to leave it or reformat to ext3 or ext4?
[02:24] <bazhang> samalex, fine to leave it
[02:25] <PerryArmstrong> can anyone tell me how i can install sun java on my ubuntu 10.04
[02:25] <BiggFREE> Hi
[02:25] <bazhang> PerryArmstrong, enable the partner repo
[02:25] <loctrice> did I make it?
[02:25] <bazhang> !partner | PerryArmstrong
[02:25] <samalex> bazhang: i just wasn't sure if some naming conventions used in ext3 would conflict with NTFS and and bomb the backup
[02:25] <red2kic> aurilliance: You know what? I found the solution. Lame as it may be. :\
[02:26] <dirtyfreebooter> how do you disable an upstart service? update-rc.d just seems to remove init.d links from rc*.d.. no matter what i do atd insists on starting up
[02:26] <jimmieskips> bazhang http://paste.ubuntu.com/458098/
[02:26] <loctrice> ah, finally. took a while to remember how to use irc cli
[02:26] <red2kic> aurilliance: Okay. I guess I can't wget. File --> Save As  (or Print as PDF) will do the trick. :(
[02:26] <Outlander> what's the best way to convert cvs repo to bazaar?
[02:26] <Outlander> there seems to be a few ways
[02:26] <ljsoftnet> what are other visual basic alternative? exept for monodevelop and gambas?
[02:26] <loctrice> what's wrong with mono?
[02:26] <hoofer> so I have this strange bug, whenever I plug my charger in on my netbook it goes to sleep. ubuntu 10.04 UNR any clues?
[02:26] <PerryArmstrong> bazhang; i run that command in terminal....
[02:27] <loctrice> gambas was basic i thought, not visual basic. mono has a vb compiler with it you don't have to use them to use the compiler I don't think
[02:27] <PerryArmstrong> bazhang; what next
[02:28] <aurilliance> red2kic, sad
[02:28] <bazhang> PerryArmstrong, sudo apt-get update then install the packages you want
[02:28] <aurilliance> hoofer, what netbook! I used to have the same issue!
[02:28] <PerryArmstrong> bazhang; ok thank you very much
[02:28] <upgrdman> whenever i make files in /var/www I have to use sudo. is it safe to chown them to the primary user?
[02:29] <loctrice> no, make a sim link to a dir in /var/www
[02:29] <hoofer> aurilliance: acer aspire one
[02:29] <PerryArmstrong> bazhang; do i have to check for any environment and variable settings...as we do for windows??
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> upgrdman:  i think the 'proper' way to allow users access to that. is to use 'groups'
[02:29] <simon> i reinstalled ubuntu using my old /home.but when i reboot, it use deafult setting of ubuntu
[02:29] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, printenv
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> upgrdman:   If you just chown/chmod the files. Its possible apache wont properly access them
[02:29] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, wats that??
[02:29] <simon> i have my archives but my ubuntu didnt apply the themes os settings
[02:29] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, open a terminal and type "printenv"
[02:30] <bazhang> jimmieskips, I dont see a wireless device in those pastes you provided
[02:30] <aurilliance> hoofer, I have a Gigabyte t1028x, are you running Ubuntu Netbook Edition by any chance?
[02:30] <upgrdman> Dr_Willis, ok. current the owner and group is root, can i safely chgrp?
[02:30] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, ok
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> upgrdman:   If you just chown/chmod the files. Its possible apache wont properly access them
[02:30] <hoofer> aurilliance: Yes I am running UNR 10.04
[02:30] <jimmieskips> bazhang i think its the usb paste where it says asus
[02:30] <loctrice> upgrdman; what are you trying to do exactly?
[02:31] <simon> this is as if I were not the owner of them
[02:31] <technobowl> hello everybody
[02:31] <aurilliance> hoofer, ok, I had that same issue, the problem was that when I pulled out/plugged in my cable, Ubuntu interpreted that as me hitting the susspend button / closing the screen (or something like that).
[02:31] <bazhang> 0b05:1786  what does a websearch say about that ID jimmieskips
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> "How do i let my users change files in /var/www' gets asked quite often. Im not sure what the 'proper' fix is for it.
[02:31] <upgrdman> loctrice, i use ssh to access my home server (no monitor is attached to it...) and I want to be able to copy files to /var/www from my main pc without having to use sudo. ssh'ing as root seems like a bad idea
[02:31] <hoofer> aurilliance: yes, thats it. How did you fix it?
[02:31] <technobowl> are there any gurus that know how to change public dynamic ip address
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> upgrdman:  you could ln -s the location to your users home dir some where also.
[02:32] <aurilliance> hoofer, if you go to the power settings and make it so that hitting suspend merely dims the screen / goes to screensaver, it stopped turning off the computer when I pulled out the cable
[02:32] <technobowl> change ip address
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> upgrdman:  but still that wont affect teh ownership :) just make scp a little easier to use
[02:32] <loctrice> that's what i do, give them a soft link to the files
[02:32] <GrazzMan> Question, Trying to access a windows workgroup, saying it can not retrieve share list from server... ??
[02:32] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, it's taking 10 min's to install the java
[02:32] <aurilliance> hoofer, it's a hack, but it works for now (I think there is a bug filed for the t1028x, maybe file one for you)
[02:32] <aurilliance> aurilliance, ?
[02:32] <simon> any help :(?
[02:32] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, i'll run that command once the installation is done
[02:32] <aurilliance> gah
[02:32] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, ?
[02:32] <joshmuffin> !offtopic > joshmuffin
[02:32] <FloodBot2> aurilliance: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:32] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, oh, I see
[02:32] <hoofer> aurilliance: I had not thought of that. I think it should work. Thanks! :D
[02:32] <aurilliance> hoofer, np
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> GrazzMan: double check with the 'findsmb' and 'smbtree' commands. I also somdeiomts have to enter the whole URL to the share.  ie: smb://server/sharename
[02:33] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, what do you want to do, check for environment variables, or edit the registry, or something else?
[02:33] <jimmieskips> bazhang says usb wireless adapter
[02:33] <hiexpo> Dr_Willis,  - how it goes
[02:33] <zahm> is there a way i can chat with android use
[02:33] <bazhang> jimmieskips, yes, but what chipset; also does it show in ifconfig
[02:33] <Agu10> tu-es
[02:34] <GrazzMan> Dr_Willis: End goal is to see Upnp servers, would I do that the same way?
[02:34] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, usually in windows this is compuslory to set the environment so that we can execute the code in a particular directory....is there something like that in ubuntu....
[02:34] <loctrice> anyone hear any dates about the linux steam client?
[02:34] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, for a batch script?
[02:34] <Dr_Willis> GrazzMan:  Upnp is handled totally different then samba/smb
[02:34] <bazhang> loctrice, try in #ubuntu-offtopic as that is the chat channel NOT here
[02:35] <aurilliance> bazhang, are you an op?
[02:35] <hiexpo> bazhang, :)
[02:35] <loctrice> bazhang; so that is a no? I thought this was a "entry point" I'm pretty new to participating in the community
[02:35] <bazhang> aurilliance, what is the issue
[02:35] <jimmieskips> bazhang i dont understand the chipset or ifconfig
[02:35] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, i dont know wats a batch script....this is usually done right after installation.. so that we can compile and execute the java program....is anything like that required here
[02:35] <Agu10> when I suspend from ubuntu, and I try to go back to ubuntu, my laptop turns off
[02:35] <bazhang> loctrice, its offtopic here
[02:35] <Agu10> can I fix this somehow???
[02:35] <loctrice> well, you can feel free to ignore me then
[02:35] <bazhang> PerryArmstrong, no need to compile, just install the packages you want
[02:36] <bazhang> loctrice, err, no; take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:36] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, afaik no, I don't think you have to do anything
[02:38] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, I'm probably not the right person tho; I'm not exactly sure :/
[02:38] <loctrice> you're chatting here, I have been watching you
[02:38] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, bazhang, so after installation i can right away compile and run my java programs
[02:38] <PerryArmstrong> aurilliance, thank you very much for the help
[02:38]  * DarkStar1 greets everyone
[02:38] <bazhang> jimmieskips, type ifconfig in the terminal; you should see eth0 lo and wlan0 (or the like)
[02:38] <andrzej> dupa
[02:38] <aurilliance> PerryArmstrong, it should be fine (it was for me); no problem mate
[02:38] <sbyrne> When using XFCE, is there a way to mount a CD without using the CLI?
[02:39] <simon> i didnt fix the problem....thanks anyway
[02:39] <LJRuff> How can I increase my monitor's brightness? I am on a laptop, it's plugged in. when I use the Fn+brightness up key i can see it's at max...
[02:40] <bazhang> LJRuff, this is for debian?
[02:40] <jimmieskips> bazhang http://paste.ubuntu.com/458103/
[02:40] <hoofer> aurilliance: unfortunately there is no blank screen option like that anymore D:   http://imgur.com/KO9fZ.png
[02:40] <DocPlatypus> okay, got a little problem
[02:40] <LJRuff> bazhang, It's in both Debian and Ubuntu
[02:41] <Agu10> how can I fix "suspend" ?
[02:41] <Agu10> I really care about that function
[02:41] <DocPlatypus> I'm trying to upgrade a limited-space install from 9.10 to 10.04 and update-manager blew up in the middle of the process
[02:41] <DocPlatypus> now, it segfaults on restart
[02:41] <MaRk-I> jimmieskips: is the usb device plugged in?
[02:41] <jimmieskips> mark-i yes
[02:41] <DocPlatypus> how do I do from the command line what update-manager would do in the GUI?
[02:42] <DocPlatypus> is it just "apt-get dist-upgrade" or is there more to it?
[02:42] <aurilliance> hoofer, one moment, i'll imagebin my settings that seem to work ok?
[02:42] <jimmieskips> i can put this into another port
[02:42] <DarkStar1> DocPlatypus: I'm not sure I can help but what do you mean when you say "blew up"
[02:42] <bazhang> jimmieskips, could be that it is mis-identifying it as eth1 ; do you see any drivers in system administration hardware drivers? also what does sudo dhclient eth1 return
[02:42] <Agu10> can anyone help me?
[02:42] <bastid_raZor> DocPlatypus: apt-get update   then apt-get upgrade
[02:43] <MaRk-I> looks like its not being detected... unplug it wait like 10 seconds and plug it back paste the last 10 lines from the command:  dmesg
[02:43] <DarkStar1> Agu10: Ask and ye might receive :)
[02:43] <jimmieskips> no such device
[02:43] <DocPlatypus> bastid_raZor: thanks
[02:43] <Agu10> ok
[02:43] <DocPlatypus> DarkStar1: it said "the upgrade is now aborted" halfway through
[02:43] <matematikaadit> Hello there.
[02:44] <Agu10> well, I tried with acpi=off, but that just doesn't show the "suspend" option in the menu
[02:44] <kliwon> hello matematikaadit
[02:44] <Agu10> I want to be able to suspend
[02:44] <DarkStar1> DocPlatypus: No reason why?
[02:44] <Agu10> I just tried s2ram, but it doesn't have my laptop in it's database
[02:44] <DocPlatypus> DarkStar1: some packages kept erroring out either due to corrupt archives or other reasons
[02:44] <matematikaadit> kliwon: indonesian?
[02:44] <kliwon> matematikaadit, : yes, i'm
[02:45] <mgolisch> Agu10: shouldnt suspend work out of the box?
[02:46] <Agu10> mgolisch, yes
[02:46] <mogra> got a server, i think it is running 8.04, that wont update. a number of the pkgs are returning "half updated", including the kernel update.
[02:46] <Agu10> but it doesn't always
[02:46] <DarkStar1> DocPlatypus: OOhh then I can't help you. I hope bastid 's answer works for you
[02:46] <aurilliance> hoofer, http://i.imgur.com/dXw1S.png
[02:46] <matematikaadit> kliwon: would you mind if i PM you?
[02:46] <aurilliance> hoofer, that's my settings, let me know if they work for you?
[02:46] <mgolisch> Agu10: what doenst work for you?
[02:46] <jimmieskips> bazhang i get no such devoce
[02:46] <kliwon> matematikaadit, : silahkan gan
[02:46] <DocPlatypus> I have a working command prompt still
[02:46] <DocPlatypus> but no idea if it will boot if I reboot
[02:46] <Agu10> when I try to go back to ubuntu, after having suspended, the laptop just turns itself off
[02:46] <Agu10> :S
[02:47] <DarkStar1> Agu10: It's always there. I've found that because of the proximity of your name next to the icon some people tend to think the shutdown menu isn't working right :)
[02:47] <DarkStar1> Agu10: Oh it's an actual problem... sorry my bad
[02:48] <bazhang> jimmieskips, that seems to be a realtek 8188 chipset
[02:48] <Ashex> Is there any way to get a dedicated panel for a dual-monitor setup?
[02:49] <mgolisch> Agu10: what laptop is that?
[02:49] <Agu10> DarkStar1, what?
[02:49] <Ashex> Doesn't appear to be a way to do it with gnome or Gnome-Do :/
[02:49] <Agu10> mgolisch: it's an Acer Aspire
[02:49] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : can you try lsusb ?
[02:49] <jimmieskips> bazhang how did you find that and what can i do now
[02:50] <bazhang> jimmieskips, let me check the ubuntuforums, just a moment
[02:51] <mgolisch> Agu10: so it doenst even try to resume?
[02:51] <Agu10> yes
[02:51] <mgolisch> Agu10: but just turns power off?
[02:51] <Agu10> it waits like 3 seconds
[02:51] <DocPlatypus> okay... how important is apport?
[02:51] <Agu10> and then it powers off
[02:51] <jimmieskips> kliwon http://paste.ubuntu.com/458097/
[02:51] <Agu10> during those 3 seconds, the fan is on, the backlight too, and the power button light too
[02:52] <Agu10> like if it was ON
[02:52] <Agu10> but then it just powers off
[02:52] <STiK> Ok fresh CM build.. see what happens lol
[02:52] <hoofer> aurilliance: It works. clever workaround, thanks again mate. :D
[02:53] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : sorry just joining , what usb devices are you try to work with ?
[02:53] <jimmieskips> kliwon a asus usb-n10
[02:54] <Agu10> mgolisch, I found something:
[02:54] <aurilliance>  hoofer Great! I'm glad it worked for you - thnx for letting me know :P
[02:54] <jon5001> hello.  each time i boot, I have to go to system/appearance/visual effect and select something other than basic, otherwise I get no window controls and cant close or move windows!  using 10.04 on dell inspiron 9300 with a radeon x300 mobility driver.  help
[02:54] <Agu10> there's a bug filed under the timeline series
[02:54] <Agu10> acer timeline series can't Suspend right
[02:54] <hoofer> jon5001: after boot try : metacity --replace
[02:55] <jimmieskips> kliwon i found this online http://samiux.blogspot.com/2010/05/howto-realtek-8192su-usb-dongle.html
[02:55] <jon5001> hoofer, one time fix, or each time i boot?
[02:55] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : ok checking...
[02:56] <Agu10> halleluyah
[02:56] <hoofer> jon5001: actually now that I think about it try this, press alt+f2 and run gconf-editor
[02:56] <rogue780> I installed ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. The hard drive indicator won't stop flashing...any ideas what the cause might be?
[02:57] <mgolisch> is there any way to use the touch gestures of a magic mouse with linux?
[02:57] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : so the d-link and asus using the same chipset ( realtek ) ?
[02:57] <jimmieskips> kliwon i dont know what you mean
[02:57] <hoofer> jon5001: then navigate to dektop>gnome>session>required_components
[02:58] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : asus n10 using realtek chipset like D-Link DWA-131 Nano USB ?
[02:58] <hoofer> jon5001: then make sure where it says windowmanager it says metacity next to it (or compiz if you prefer the visual effects)
[02:59] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : from the link you gave me you need to build from the source...
[03:00] <jimmieskips> kliwon i found that doing google searches for the firmware through this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1461271
[03:01] <mogra> narrowed down the error a little more, got "could not find postinst script [update-grub]"? this have to do with it being a linode srvr(just learned from client)?
[03:02] <DocPlatypus> "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal."
[03:02] <DocPlatypus> anyone ever seen this?
[03:02] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : wow..these hard...man... :D
[03:02] <jimmieskips> kliwon i am a noob and am pulling my hair out
[03:02] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : a lot of effort to make these devices works
[03:03] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : same as me my friend...
[03:03] <jon5001> hoofer, this is what it says:  <gconf>
[03:03] <jon5001> 	<entry name="windowmanager" mtime="1278035471" type="string">
[03:03] <jon5001> 		<stringvalue>compiz</stringvalue>
[03:03] <jon5001> 	</entry>

[03:03] <FloodBot2> jon5001: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:03] <jimmieskips> kliwon i might just scrap this device and get one thats compatable
[03:04] <matthew_> I know there is documentation but I don't know exactly what to search for...I dual boot 10.04 and win7 and I'd like to access files on my Ubuntu partition from within Windows...can someone point me in the right direction?
[03:04] <IdleOne> !samba | matthew_
[03:04] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : that's good idea... :D
[03:04] <VladTheImpaled> matthew_, You'l need to setup a Samba server in Ubuntu for Win to access
[03:05] <jimmieskips> kliwon any suggestions?
[03:05] <jon5001> hoofer, this is what it says: http://paste.ubuntu.com/458110/
[03:06] <matthew_> VladTheImpaled...if I were to, say, play music from my Ubuntu partition in Windows, using Samba would there be risk of delay/lag?
[03:07] <jimmieskips> bazhang did you happen to see the 2 pages i posted on this device
[03:07] <VladTheImpaled> matthew_, the samba server is pretty stable.  however my experience with smb as a protocol in general isn't that hopeful
[03:07] <bazhang> jimmieskips, from the forums?
[03:07] <VladTheImpaled> matthew_, I've had much better results with NFS, but getting a decent NFS client for Windows can be a challenge
[03:07] <jimmieskips> bazhang yep
[03:07] <bazhang> jimmieskips, seems you need to compile for that
[03:07] <matthew_> ok, thanks VladTheImpaled, IdleOne for the information!
[03:07] <aurilliance> If I type "diff .htaccess .htaccess_backup" and get absolutely nothing printed to the terminal (I get an empty prompt again) does that mean the files are identical?
[03:08] <IdleOne> matthew_: sure thing
[03:08] <MaRk-I> VladTheImpaled: I think his partition is in the same HD or machine, I dont think he needs samba... and I doubt win7 could read an ext3/4 partition?
[03:08] <jimmieskips> bazhang i think i should probably scrap that device and get something else
[03:08] <bazhang> jimmieskips, atheros and intel are good choices then, even broadcom in a pinch
[03:08] <VladTheImpaled> MaRk-I, Yeh, I see what you mean.  IE, he won't have both partitions active at the same time
[03:08] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : dont have idea yet...
[03:08] <aurilliance> MaRk-I, win7 can read ext4/3, sometimes
[03:09] <aurilliance> MaRk-I, you have to install a driver though
[03:09] <jimmieskips> bazhang will these be plug and play?
[03:09] <MaRk-I> aurilliance: thanks, dont worry tho that person left
[03:09] <VladTheImpaled> matthew_, so what you really need to do is to mount the Linux partition as a disk drive in Windows7, right?
[03:09] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : try these https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported#Wireless%20USB%20Adapters
[03:09] <aurilliance> MaRk-I, sure
[03:09] <bazhang> jimmieskips, intel yet, the others have well supported drivers
[03:09] <aurilliance> If I use diff on 2 files and get nothing printed to the terminal, does that mean they are identical?
[03:10] <un214> yes [unless they differ by null bytes]
[03:10] <jimmieskips> thanks alot guys!!! hAVE A GOOD NIGHT
[03:11] <aurilliance> un214, me?
[03:11] <kliwon> hi jimmieskips : try also these http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-usb-wireless-compatibility-adapter-list.html
[03:11] <kliwon> :D
[03:11] <aurilliance> jimmieskips, YOU TOO!
[03:11] <aurilliance> jimmieskips, :P
[03:11] <un214> yes
[03:11] <aurilliance> un214, thanks!
[03:13] <rogue780> My hard drive light won't stop flashing on my laptop. Does anybody know what causes this and how to fix it?
[03:13] <Supertata> Help!
[03:14] <un214> rogue780 -- does it still do that if you boot single user?
[03:14] <rogue780> un214, how do I boot non-single user?
[03:14] <un214> non single user is the default
[03:15] <un214> single user boots to a # prompt on console
[03:15] <rogue780> un214, I boot, it starts x and logs me in automatically
[03:15] <IdleOne> !ask | Supertata
[03:15] <Supertata> can someone read this?
[03:15] <un214> maybe it's called recovery mode
[03:15] <bazhang> Supertata, yes, ask a question
[03:15] <VladTheImpaled> Supertata, pastebin?
[03:15] <DocPlatypus> okay... well this is frustrating
[03:16] <un214> (to start wired networking from there the command is dhclient eth0 -- if you want wireless I can't help you)
[03:16] <DocPlatypus> the kernel for 10.04 won't boot
[03:16] <DocPlatypus> only the old one that came with 9.10
[03:16] <Supertata> nah, I've got no question, I'm just using irc via netcat and that is damn awesome :#
[03:16] <DocPlatypus> and that, only into text mode
[03:16] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, are you trying to do an upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4?
[03:16] <un214> DocPlatypus: willing to try xforcevesa?
[03:16] <DocPlatypus> VladTheImpaled: yes
[03:17] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, its not really a recommended thing
[03:17] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, its typically better to do a fresh install
[03:17] <un214> oh come on
[03:17] <DocPlatypus> VladTheImpaled: that's exactly what I'm trying to avoid
[03:17] <DocPlatypus> and there's no point in having an upgrade procedure if it's useless
[03:18] <DocPlatypus> someone please tell the people at Canonical that if they're going to insist it's not recommended
[03:18] <Shpook> It's been a long time since I've used any linux distro. Now I'm trying to install the latest Ubuntu on a Gateway laptop. Trying both a live-cd and a wubi install, I get a blank screen after grub...no splash, no login, nothing. No response to any keystrokes. I've always had issues with Gateway display drivers, but I honestly don't know/remember where to start here. Any suggestions? Thanks.
[03:18] <jimmieskips> kliwon i was thinking asus usb-n13 from that link you sent me
[03:18] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, you can do that
[03:18] <un214> Shpook, try the alternate cd
[03:18] <bazhang> VladTheImpaled, upgrades are fine. fresh installs are merely another option
[03:18] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, Microsoft people also need to be done that
[03:19] <VladTheImpaled> bazhang, I'd love to have your faith, but it has worked about 15% of the time for me, and my installs are pretty basic
[03:19] <DocPlatypus> just did a 'dpkg --configure -a' and that configured a bunch of stuff the upgrade didn't bother with
[03:19] <kliwon> jimmieskips, : maybe you can compare the 1 price 1st...
[03:19] <bazhang> VladTheImpaled, please dont say that upgrades are not recommended here
[03:19] <Shpook> un214, will do, I'll start the download now. I'm not in a big rush or anything, but it does get aggravating.
[03:19] <VladTheImpaled> bazhang, whatever
[03:19] <un214> Shpook, you may also have to try to boot rescue mode or xforcevesa
[03:19] <VladTheImpaled> bazhang, I'm just sharing experience.  Take a vote on it.  I think I'd win
[03:20] <bazhang> VladTheImpaled, no.
[03:20] <mogra> "this is not a democracy"
[03:20] <mogra> :)
[03:20] <un214> [I have reason to believe the alternate cd will behave better if drivers are buggy]
[03:20] <VladTheImpaled> bazhang, nice comeback
[03:21] <un214> after a few botched upgrades I now recommend updating sources.list manually and running apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:21] <Shpook> un214: Awesome. I'll use google from here, I just wanted a shove in the right direction. Thanks a lot, if I have any issues from there, I'll just come back and ask. :D
[03:21] <VladTheImpaled> the fact is that although Ubuntu might just upgrade fine, there's no guarantee that the drivers, 3rd party software, etc. will play fair.
[03:21] <DocPlatypus> VladTheImpaled: I have next to no third party software
[03:21] <VladTheImpaled> Its not a problem isolated to Ubuntu.  Windows has had this problem for 20 years
[03:22] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, well I'm no psychic as to your computer issues, but the fact is you are having problems
[03:22] <DocPlatypus> VladTheImpaled: part of the reason I dumped Windows. of course Windows by itself is almost useless
[03:22] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, true
[03:22] <DocPlatypus> you have to buy a lot of third party software, Microsoft sells very little
[03:22] <VladTheImpaled> DocPlatypus, +1
[03:22] <r0zz> hi, somebody can tell me why i cant use the wrjpgcom comman in ubuntu?
[03:24] <mdg> hello
[03:24] <MaRk-I> Shpook: what videocard is your machine using?
[03:25] <mdg> I have a question about ethernet over USB.  If one used a USB cable from their modem to their USB port on computer, would it work out of the box?
[03:26] <DocPlatypus> mdg: this a cable modem?
[03:26] <DocPlatypus> or DSL modem?
[03:26] <mdg> lets assume DSL
[03:26] <Styles> I have a laptop that wont load up I think last time I turned off ACPI
[03:26] <mdg> I'm asking on behalf of someone else
[03:26] <DocPlatypus> I'm not sure if those are standardized or not...
[03:26] <Styles> Can somebody assist with this?
[03:27] <mdg> DocPlatypus: its a very old computer with no ethernet port
[03:27] <DocPlatypus> I've learned it's best to assume everything like that is a screwball proprietary protocol supported only by Windows and maybe MacOS X unless proven otherwise
[03:27] <DocPlatypus> in your case you have nothing to lose by trying it
[03:27] <ejv> Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work?
[03:27] <mdg> DocPlatypus: thanks!  :0
[03:27] <VladTheImpaled> Styles, what brand of laptop is it?
[03:28] <DocPlatypus> usually on Ubuntu you can just plug it in and if it will work, it usually works right away
[03:28] <dugger5688> Yeah, I'm actually surprised now when hardware doesn't work right away /w Ubuntu.
[03:29] <pictureaday> How does one enable verbose output during boot?
[03:30] <dugger5688> pictureaday: does ur computer boot to a terminal or graphical login?
[03:30] <VladTheImpaled> dugger5688, I think its a wise practice to first check with any vendor for Linux compatibility with any hardware.  Their primary focus is typically Windows.  I use a lot of screwball hardware devices on servers, etc. such as funky RAID cards, PCI boards, etc. and unless they use a common chipset, its hard to find Linux compatibility
[03:30] <VladTheImpaled> dugger5688, but if I stay with the common ones, they work perfectly well (typically better than on other OSs)
[03:30] <dugger5688> ugh, yes RAID cards ARE a pain.
[03:30] <pictureaday> @dugger, it doesnt get that far
[03:31] <pictureaday> I'm running server edition
[03:31] <pictureaday> it hangs on boot
[03:31] <VladTheImpaled> dugger5688, I just had to add a PCI eSata card to a server for external drive backups, and I had to go through about 5 cards before I found one compatible with Linux.
[03:31] <VladTheImpaled> dugger5688, but it runs like a champ now
[03:32] <mgolisch> VladTheImpaled: ?
[03:33] <pictureaday> dugger, I'm working on booting up from a live cd now though
[03:33] <VladTheImpaled> mgolisch, you rang?
[03:33] <dugger5688> It doesn't boot from live?
[03:33] <mgolisch> VladTheImpaled: what shity sata host cards did you use that were not supported by the kernel?
[03:33] <pictureaday> no, no, I'm sure it does, I just had to find my disk
[03:34] <pictureaday> I have to use an old usb dvdreader to boot it too, so it's not quick haha
[03:34] <Shpook> I know this channel is more for help, but I'd like to know why Ubuntu STILL isn't at the level to just WORK out of the box.
[03:34] <VladTheImpaled> mgolisch, Anything that didn't use a common chipset (off memory, and I'm probably wrong, but I think the one that did work was a SIL chipset or something like that?)
[03:34] <r0zz> hi somebody can tell me about the wrjpgcom command?
[03:34] <dugger5688> pictureaday: sorry, I don't have my server Virtual machine ready or I'd boot that and see if I can get output like u want.
[03:34] <ejv> Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work?
[03:34] <jMyles> how can I tell what public key a client is attempting to use when SSHing in?
[03:35] <doglino> i need a program to control linux remotely (like in the windows), some recommendation?
[03:35] <dugger5688> Shpook: What OS is?!?! I want to use it!
[03:35] <VladTheImpaled> mgolisch, I could only use PCI cards and shopping for them typically ended up with some Chinese provider sending the card from Hong Kong on eBay
[03:35] <ejv> doglino: google putty
[03:35] <DocPlatypus> Shpook: it's close enough to that for my purposes
[03:35] <doglino> ejv: no
[03:35] <VladTheImpaled> mgolisch, so the cards were not 'name brand' simply because the major manufacturers weren't selling PCI cards anymore
[03:35] <doglino> ejv: not ssh
[03:35] <ejv> doglino: ? yes?
[03:35] <Styles> So, how can I mount a USB device (hard drive) with an unknown partition type
[03:35] <mgolisch> VladTheImpaled:odd
[03:35] <doglino> evj to use mouse
[03:36] <ejv> doglino: ah well you should specify that in your question bro
[03:36] <pictureaday> @dugger, its ok..
[03:36] <pictureaday> thanks anyways
[03:36] <Shpook> dugger5688: Fair enough. :) That's the ONLY thing I have to say Win***s has over *nix though. That saddens me.....I hate Win***s.
[03:36] <dugger5688> doglino: Viangre, VNC, etc.
[03:36] <ejv> doglino: vnc or nx
[03:36] <doglino> ejv: thanks
[03:36] <VladTheImpaled> mgolisch, If I was using brand new hardware in that server, I could probably have avoided all of it, but the end result is that its working perfectly.  Its a 5TB SAN, so it has to be rock solid
[03:36] <dugger5688> Did I miss something, last time I installed windoze I spent days hunting down drivers.
[03:36] <Shpook> not to say win***s doesn't have problems....but it's always been a nightmare to get wireless/display drivers working in *nix
[03:37] <goobers> where you on 56k???
[03:37] <doglino> dugger5688 gracias muchacho
[03:37] <ridin> how do i install winamp skins in audacious?
[03:38] <doglino> ridin:  its possible?
[03:38] <ridin> doglino it says that in the ubuntu software center
[03:39] <VladTheImpaled> props to Banshee.... The 1.6.1 release seems to have fixed all their memory leaks from the past
[03:39] <doglino> ridin:  i did not know
[03:39] <arlo> ridin: i do not know either.
[03:39] <doglino> ridin I use winamp on windows
[03:40] <dugger5688> What's up with apt-get keeping back kernel upgrades....
[03:41] <doglino> its "on the Windows" or "in the windows" ?
[03:41] <defrysk> dugger5688, try a dist-upgrade
[03:41] <ridin> on Windows?
[03:42] <dugger5688> defrysk: That's what I've been doing... seems silly though. thanks.
[03:43] <defrysk> dugger5688, whet new packages need to be installed like with a kernel upgrade a dist-upgrade is reqired
[03:44] <defrysk> dugger5688, if you are not hppy with that try aptitude safe-upgrade
[03:44] <dugger5688> defrysk: Yup, just read the manual! :-)
[03:44] <defrysk> dugger5688, cool
[03:44] <doglino> ridin thanks bye
[03:45] <dugger5688> has it always been this way, 10.04 is the first time I've run into this.
[03:45] <osmario> hi all. Does someone know how to clean extras entries in Grub?
[03:46] <dugger5688> osmario: grub 1 or 2?
[03:46] <osmario> Grub that comes with 10.04
[03:46] <defrysk> dugger5688, not sure, i have not used ubuntu every version
[03:47] <xangua> osmario: remove the old kernels
[03:48] <osmario> how to remove the old kernels?
[03:48] <FoolsRun> Forgive my asking the same question hours apart, but has anyone seen a situation where a fresh install of Ubuntu onto a RAID array (striped) will boot successfully every other time? On my first and third reboot I only got a blinking cursor, on my second and forth I got the desktop.
[03:49] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: software or hardware RAID?
[03:50] <xangua> osmario: from synaptic, you search them and remove them
[03:50] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: It's server hardware so I believe it is hardware RAID. I don't have the machine in front of me and didn't check for sure before installing. The Ubuntu installer named a card when choosing the array to install onto.
[03:51] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: that does seem odd. it could be just coincidence that it's every other time
[03:51] <osmario> ok. thanks. I'll try
[03:51] <DocPlatypus> I know Windows is terrible about leaving the hardware in some kind of weird state on a warm reboot
[03:51] <DocPlatypus> I would like to think most GNU/Linux distributions are better
[03:51] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: if it is coincidence, what might the problem be? Is there something that might cause intermitent booting?
[03:51] <Vin73> hi I had posed a query yesterday about an issue with reboot after installation of the latest Ubuntu
[03:52] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: I suppose I can't prove that it's warm/cold because when I get the blinking cursor, I have to shut it all the way down.
[03:52] <Vin73> the reboot hangs....and I was asked to do three checks...check the md5 sum...check the media...check the RAM
[03:52] <Vin73> I have done all the three checks successfully...but still the problem persists...can someone help?
[03:52] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: I've seen some posts suggesting creating a /boot partition at the top of the array. Worth a shot?
[03:52] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: yeah you have an issue where warm reboots don't work. your workaround for the moment is "don't do that"
[03:53] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: maybe. what's your partition structure right now?
[03:53] <FoolsRun> Whatever the Ubuntu default "use the whole disk" is. I didn't have time before the end of the day to review it. Too hung up on the boot issues.
[03:53] <DocPlatypus> oh my
[03:54] <DocPlatypus> ummm... that may well be one big partition
[03:54] <DocPlatypus> I've never done it that way
[03:54] <DocPlatypus> I always make separate /usr /var and /home and usually /tmp
[03:54] <FoolsRun> Could that theoretically cause boot issues like this one?
[03:54] <Vin73> hello....
[03:55] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: to be honest boot issues like that are the least of your possible worries when doing an install to one big filesystem
[03:55] <mj8741> Vin73: Hi, when you say it hangs - you mean the computer won't start?
[03:56] <Vin73> mj8741: yes....I cannot boot from the disk after installation...I get a string of I/O errors
[03:56] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: so the Ubuntu default isn't desirable, then. That seems unintuative for an installer.
[03:56] <mj8741> Vin73: did it work ok with live cd?
[03:56] <Vin73> mj8741: I even tried a hard reboot....no success
[03:56] <qwerty44> hello all
[03:56] <ajmetal87> Is this a ubuntu help channel? I have a basic question i'm sure anyone with intermediate Ubuntu expierence can answer.
[03:56] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: is it booted up right now?
[03:56] <Vin73> mj8741: yes, I was able to boot from the live CD...
[03:57] <tim> My new apple remote works fine in the gnome-lirc-properties window, but i can't get boxee to do anything with it. What can I do to connect the lirc properties and the boxee remote properties?
[03:57] <Vin73> mj8741: I had to alter some settings using F6 before I could boot successfully
[03:57] <mj8741> Vin73: what setting did you change?
[03:57] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: I'm not at it. It's at work.
[03:57] <FoolsRun> Also no, I shut it down before leaving
[03:57] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: okay, look at /etc/fstab or do a df command
[03:58] <DocPlatypus> that will tell you what exactly you have
[03:58] <FoolsRun> If the partitions are all on the same volume, what's the difference between partitioning and installing to a single filesystem?
[03:59] <Vin73> mj8741: I selected all the options except the first and the last....this was as per the instruction provided in a webpage disucssing issues with booting from live CD from my laptop model, which is compaq nx9010...I was not able to boot from the live CD before following these instructions...also I did break=top from the commandline
[04:00] <nyxtom> I have a built-in webcam in my hp laptop and I can't see to get it to consistently work. It doesn't show up on lsusb, where do I go to scan for it/reset it?
[04:00] <tim> FoolsRun: Partitioning allows you to have different file system formats on the same volume.
[04:00] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: if you have corruption on something like /usr you don't lose everything necessarily
[04:00] <Vin73> mj8741: Also, I wanted to mention another observation regarding the RAM test
[04:01] <FoolsRun> DocPlatypus: that makes sense, but it's unlikely to have cause my boot issue
[04:01] <DocPlatypus> whereas with everything on one filesystem, the odds of losing it all go way up
[04:01] <FoolsRun> I've had a lot more problems with disk crashes than with file system corruption, though, and separate partitions won't save a bad disk
[04:01] <DocPlatypus> FoolsRun: it's more likely to be just a bug in the warm reboot process that the BIOS/boot code can't handle
[04:02] <tim> FoolsRun: Partitioning allows you to have different file system formats on the same volume.
[04:02] <[Rickmasta]> Hey guys, can these specs run ubuntu smoothly? http://tinyurl.com/28tmt6c
[04:02] <ajmetal87> Does anyone know how I go about accessing /$HOME/.wine/user.reg ?
[04:02] <FoolsRun> tim: Yeah, I get that, but I don't need that on this system
[04:02] <Vin73> mj8741: I had run the test overnight and it had run for almost 18 hours...but when I returned to my desk, I found the tests to be still running albeit there was a message at the bottom of the screen which said tests were completely done and press esc to exit the screen...is this normal behavior?
[04:03] <tim> FoolsRun: Keep in mind, Ubuntu (under the guided partititoning when you installed) uses partitions for basic use.
[04:03] <mj8741> Vin73: I've never experienced that - I'm sorry I don't know how to advise you -
[04:03] <tim> ajmetal87: Accessing how?
[04:04] <FoolsRun> tim: I chose "erase and use the whole hard disk" on intsall, so if that's true, I probably have several partitions now.
[04:04] <Vin73> mj8741: ok...
[04:04] <Vin73> has anyone faced the same issue as the one that I reported now? please comment
[04:04] <mj8741> Vin73: is that using ubuntu 10.04?
[04:05] <Vin73> mj8741: yes...the latest version
[04:05] <ajmetal87> Tim: I need to get this working in Wine, and according to this link ( http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9971&iTestingId=35018 ) I need to modify something or another...Basically, Im trying to get Eve running without crashing after login, and im failing miserably.
[04:05] <mj8741> Vin73: did 9.10 work or 9.04?
[04:05] <tim> FoolsRun: Yep. You've got a swap space and the regular file space. Check here to get more about partitioning. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes
[04:06] <Vin73> mj8741: I did not try the previous versions....I had installed Fedora on the laptop previously and wanted to switch to Ubuntu...and I downloaded and burnt the live CD from Ubuntu website
[04:06] <mj8741> Vin73: which ver of Fedora
[04:07] <ajmetal87> help notice
[04:07] <Vin73> mj8741: fecora 12
[04:07] <tim> ajmetal87: That seems like it can be done by editing the file in gedit. Go to the terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and typing in "gedit /$HOME/.wine/user.reg"
[04:07] <ajmetal87> notice tim Thank you!!!
[04:07] <cor3vus> yo #ubuntu, im really happy for you and imma let you finish. but #slackware has some of the bets linux of all time
[04:07] <mj8741> Vin73: on reboot can you press shift key and get into grub menu?
[04:08] <jMyles> how can I tell what public key a client is attempting to use when SSHing in?
[04:08] <Vin73> mj8741: i will try that now and get back....
[04:08] <tim> ajmetal87: Sure thing! I hope that works for you.
[04:09] <tim> My new apple remote works fine in the gnome-lirc-properties window, but i can't get boxee to do anything with it. What can I do to connect the lirc properties and the boxee remote properties?

[04:10] <PingJ> I'm looking for some help running Ubuntu.
[04:10] <Vin73> mj8741: I guess I could...
[04:10] <PingJ> Would anyone mind helping me out?
[04:10] <Vin73> mj8741: are you looking for a specific text output?
[04:10] <scott_ino> PingJ, wha's your issue? don't ask to ask, just ask your question
[04:10] <tim> PingJ: Just type your problem in, and someone will take a whack at it.
[04:11] <mj8741> Vin73: can you use arrow key and go down to 1 space after quiet splash and type in nomodeset then ctr x
[04:11] <mahipal> I want to use vesa instead of intel driver for my netbook to connect to tv. Where is the xorg.conf in ubuntu lucid ?
[04:11] <PingJ> I loaded Ubuntu 10.04 onto my computer but when I boot into it, it doesn't load past a blank backround and a mouse pointer.
[04:12] <Vin73> mj8741: working...
[04:12] <Vin73> mj8741: working on it...
[04:12] <no-name-> is it possible to rename all the sub directories within a directory to the lower case equivelant with one command?
[04:13] <tim> no-name-: Yes. It is possible to write a quick little script in bash, but it's not possible with one command.
[04:13] <scott_ino> PingJ, do you get the full gui or is it just command line?
[04:13] <Vin73> mj8741: I can use the arrow key and get the stickman screen....and then it goes blank...this was the problem that I used to face before I set the F6 settings mentioned before...
[04:13] <coz_> no-name-,  did you look here ?  http://tips.webdesign10.com/how-to-bulk-rename-files-in-linux-in-the-terminal
[04:13] <[Rickmasta]> http://tinyurl.com/28tmt6c Hey Guys, can this netbook run ubuntu smoothly?
[04:13] <no-name-> ok thanks
[04:14] <switch10_> jMyles: .ssh/id_dsa.pub in server home should match the one the clients /home/.ssh/known hosts
[04:14] <PingJ> Well thats the thing, There's no command line. No buttons work, mouse clicks do nothing. Its just a blank screen and a movable pointer.
[04:14] <FoolsRun> PingJ: have you tried rebooting to Recovery mode?
[04:14] <PingJ> You mean booting Ubuntu in recovery mode?
[04:15] <mj8741> Vin73: ok, sorry I just don't know then...
[04:15] <scott_ino> [Rickmasta], probably not it's 300 mhz dude
[04:15] <FoolsRun> PingJ: yes
[04:15] <PingJ> How do you do that?
[04:15] <Vin73> mj8741: ok
[04:15] <mj8741> good luck Vin73...
[04:15] <FoolsRun> PingJ: I beleive you can hold SHIFT on boot to get the GRUB2 menu. It should be an option from there.
[04:15] <[Rickmasta]> scott_ino, how much does the average computer run on?
[04:15] <Vin73> mj8741: thanks and thanks for your time
[04:15] <tim> [Rickmasta]: I don't really think so... The page says it has an ARM processor. Many applications aren't written for that archetecture. Check it out here: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/arm-linux
[04:15] <mj8741> Vin73: no problem
[04:16] <IdleOne> [Rickmasta]: also low on ram
[04:16] <Vin73> has anyone faced the same issue as the one that I reported now? please comment
[04:16] <PingJ> So if it boots in recovery mode, where should I go from there?
[04:16] <wookienz> hi, i have moved a raid 0 array from windows to linux The buis can see the array and says it is healthy and functional, but i can gte ubuntu to see it. I have tried building a md0 array of the drives but when i mount it it says not a vsalid ntfs array. anyone familiar?
[04:16] <[Rickmasta]> Alright, that's all i needed.
[04:16] <IdleOne> [Rickmasta]: check the minimum requirements on ubuntu.com
[04:16] <scott_ino> [Rickmasta], well for ubuntu I'd suggest at least 750mhz which I have done... but still might not run that great
[04:16] <PingJ> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/6510 Thats what I found so far.
[04:16] <scott_ino> wouldn't use ubuntu fo something that low spec
[04:16] <FoolsRun> PingJ: If you get GNOME in recovery mode, I'd first look at your video drivers.
[04:16] <scott_ino> there are tons of variants
[04:17] <PingJ> I'll be able to connect to the internet in Recovery?
[04:17] <lordppm> hi my system becomes significantly slower after upgrading to linux kernel 2.6.32-23. How does it happen?
[04:17] <scott_ino> [Rickmasta], tons of ubuntu variants, that work a lot better with lower spec, still 300mhz is pretty low
[04:17] <FoolsRun> PingJ: I believe so, but I'm not positive. Someone else might be able to answer that for sure.
[04:18] <[Rickmasta]> k
[04:18] <tim> [Rickmasta]: Sorry it won't work... You might be able to run a vanilla linux kernel with a really small gfx, but not ubuntu.
[04:18] <[Rickmasta]> So anyone know any cheap laptops/netbooks that can run ubuntu smoothly?
[04:18] <PingJ> Let me try that and I'll be back. Thanks Foolsrun, I appreciate it.
[04:19] <FoolsRun> PingJ: no problem. Good luck!
[04:20] <tim> [Rickmasta]: The HP mini's run Ubuntu great. Everything worked out of the box for me, it even has really smooth desktop effects. They run about 300USD for a new one. I reccommend it.
[04:20] <pondera> the netbooks tim ?
[04:21] <valbaca> tim: which version of ubuntu?
[04:21] <[Rickmasta]> I might just save my money and go with a MBP.
[04:21] <pondera> ya i set up ubuntu netook addition on my friends and she doesnt what to go back to windows lol
[04:21] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, how did you move the array from win to linux? different box?
[04:21] <tim> valbaca: I'm running Karmic and it's amazingly smooth and all of the hardware works wonderfully.
[04:21] <tim> pondera: I'm sorry. I'm confused. What were you asking?
[04:22] <valbaca> thanks, I've been looking for one for the g/f and just happened to look at xchat when you mentioned the hp
[04:22] <pondera> tim you were talking about the ubuntu netbook edition right ?
[04:23] <NeverCast> Hey.
[04:23] <NeverCast> So I removed an Application from Ubuntu Software Center
[04:23] <NeverCast> but it remains in the Applications menu
[04:23] <NeverCast> How do I go about removing it?
[04:23] <NeverCast> Using 9.10
[04:23] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: same box, same controller, new OS!!
[04:23] <tim> valbaca: Oh yes. I've got the HP Mini 110 and it's liquid smooth on regular Ubuntu. I didn't like Ubuntu Netbook's interface, but it works fine as well.
[04:24] <tim> pondera: Nope. Wasn't asking. Are you having problems?
[04:24] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, you said the BIOS recognized it.  So it is SATA raid I assume
[04:24] <valbaca> tim: thanks again
[04:25] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: yes.
[04:25] <tim> NeverCast: This can happen sometimes. What you've got to do is logout and log back in and it will probably go away. Or, you can go into the terminal and do a "killall gnome-panel" and see if that takes care of it. If it doesn't, you're going to have to manually remove it by right clicking on "Applications" and going to "Edit Menu" and deleting the entry.
[04:25] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, Follow this on how to set up fakeraid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto.  The recognition of raid is not automatic in ubuntu
[04:25] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: i can build a new array, but just cant mount it.
[04:25] <pondera> oh for anyone who can answer.  would i be able to install windows 7 on a hardrive that has 4 partitions ? i tried xp but it said to many partitions
[04:25] <tim> valbaca: Of course! Best of luck!
[04:25] <lunks> How can I have video conference on Ubuntu?
[04:26] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, did you use mdadm on the raid device?
[04:26] <tim> lunks: Have you given ekiga or skype a try?
[04:26] <NeverCast> Thanks tim, I tried the restart / log out options and that didn't work
[04:26] <NeverCast> tim, however I did find the entries in /usr/share/applications
[04:26] <lunks> tim: installing ekiga, but skype does not allow more than one contact at a time, I need to send my screen to more than one person
[04:26] <NeverCast> tim, Just need to use super user from the terminal to get rid of them.
[04:27] <tim> NeverCast: Don't remove those.
[04:27] <NeverCast> tim, why not?
[04:27] <lunks> tim: I actually want to share my screen rather than my webcam... Skype was fine until I had to add one more person. :P
[04:27] <NeverCast> tim, they are just broken links
[04:27] <NeverCast> tim, are they not?
[04:27] <tim> NeverCast: You might mess up a config file.
[04:27] <scott_ino> lunks, is this specifically for screencasting/training
[04:27] <tim> NeverCast: It's better to just remove the entry in the Applications menu.
[04:27] <lunks> scott_ino, yep
[04:27] <NeverCast> Okay I'll do that.
[04:28] <NeverCast> tim, Fixed it. Thanks (:
[04:28] <scott_ino> because i would't use either for that... sadly the best tools for this aren't free
[04:28] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: yes. the raid array has data on it that icant afford to lose. so i need to get it back up and runnign without frucking it
[04:28] <tim> lunks: Hmm... There are a few proprietary video conferencing programs, but of course those cost money and might just work in windows. Skype will eventually add multi person conferencing in linux.
[04:28] <Alcohol52> [pondera] I have could install in hard disk with 6 partition(3 ntfs, 1fat, 1 ext4 and swap)
[04:29] <tim> NeverCast: Sure thing! Hope you don't have that problem.
[04:29] <scott_ino> lunks, yuuguu I think can do it, not sure if it allows multiple people though
[04:29] <rjb> running ubuntu 10.04, firefox 3.6.6 in debug mode i get Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision
[04:29] <NeverCast> tim, Where would I ask about Java causing Ubuntu to completely freeze, mouse freezes and everything.
[04:29] <tim> pondera: I think the trick is for windows is to install the os on the last partition. It really is pretty picky on install.
[04:29] <scott_ino> lunks, depending on what your budget is, elluminate is an awesome java based tool I use frequently.
[04:29] <tim> NeverCast: Which version of Java are you running?
[04:30] <NeverCast> tim, 1.6.20 I think.
[04:30] <NeverCast> tim, Believe it's the latest
[04:30] <NeverCast> tim, I'm unsure if it's OpenJDK or Sun
[04:30] <lunks> scott_ino, I'd rather want it free. :P
[04:30] <scott_ino> lunks, http://www.yuuguu.com/home
[04:30] <NeverCast> tim, as I think I have both installed.
[04:30] <tim> NeverCast: Is it OpenJDK or something else?
[04:30] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: i have tried mdadm --build /dev/md0 -n2 -l0 --chunk-64 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1, it creates successfully - i just cant then mount it. i have also tried chunk 128, sdb1 then sda1 all of which still same issue wheni try and mount.
[04:30] <tim> NeverCast: Woops. Already answered my question.
[04:30] <tim> NeverCast: When it crashes, which one are you using?
[04:31] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, As far as I understand, you need to use dmraid as per the post I gave before.  Do not use mdadm when you have fakeraid
[04:31] <NeverCast> tim, I'll check the startup log, one sec.
[04:31] <tim> NeverCast: Okiedokie.
[04:31] <Zero_Shakal> redenorte.net
[04:31] <NeverCast> tim, Java version: 1.6.0_20 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) <http://java.sun.com/>
[04:31] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, even though ubuntu recognizes them as 2 devices, the BIOS says it is one and that is where the conflict arises.
[04:32] <NeverCast> tim, so Sun I believe
[04:32] <tim> NeverCast: I would uninstall both and start over.
[04:32] <NeverCast> tim, Okay I'll give that a go.
[04:32] <NeverCast> tim, The application I'm trying to run is a Java game, using OpenGL
[04:33] <NeverCast> tim, how do I go about updating Graphics drivers and OpenGL? as that is something I will probably have to try if this fails.
[04:33] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: dmraid -r shows "/dev/sdb: pdc, "pdc_fhdeecgf", stripe, ok, 486328064 sectors, data@ 0"
[04:33] <lyhana8_> hi, how can I find a network printer using the command line ?
[04:33] <tim> NeverCast: If you've updated through the Update Manager, you're up to date.
[04:33] <scott_ino> lunks, honestly skype or yuuguu are your only real free options unless you wanna do something more complicated
[04:33] <NeverCast> tim, okay sweet. Thanks.. Be back shortly, removing Java's
[04:34] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, right so /dev/sdb is a part of fakeraid.  Do not create software raid on it using mdadm
[04:34] <tim> NeverCast: The program you're trying to run. Was that installed though the Software Center or something else?
[04:34] <lunks> scott_ino, I could complicate things a bit, if you have one crazy idea which could work. :)
[04:34] <skorn> How can I  mount a USB hard drive?
[04:34] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, In any case always back your data up.
[04:34] <NeverCast> tim, Java Web Start.
[04:35] <NeverCast> tim, http://wurmonline.com/
[04:35] <skorn> It doesn't appear under media.
[04:35] <scott_ino> lunks, I'd give yuuguu a go first, haven't used it in quite some time, but i know it works, just not sure about multiple people
[04:35] <NeverCast> skorn, It should just appear on your desktop when you plug the device in.'
[04:35] <tgalal> I need to ssh-keygen for a user, without actually being logged in with that user.. Is it possible ? If logged in as root?
[04:35] <tim> NeverCast: Then I don't know what the problem is. It may just be an issue with the game. Java Web Start, if installed through the Software Center, should work out of the box.
[04:36] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: quite correct....but presently I cant the raid up to back it up! originally i was just going to reinstall windows 7 again - but it could see the raid either. the drive was there - but just couldnt access it. so i moved to ubuntu  (finally!) thinking that it can do anything..
[04:36] <NeverCast> tim, the game works up to login and connect, when the 3D window pops up the whole system halts.
[04:36] <tim> skorn: You can view mounted drives either on the desktop, or by going to Places>Computer
[04:36] <skorn> I looked under /dev/disk and it says something about USB but it isnt mounting
[04:36] <NeverCast> skorn, should mount automatically
[04:36] <neo_> testing
[04:36] <dakota> Hello.
[04:36] <neo_> hellow
[04:36] <NeverCast> tim, so you suggest OpenJDK over Sun Java?
[04:37] <neo_> I'm using xfce
[04:37] <dakota> I have had some problems with installation of ubuntu on my desktop...
[04:37] <tim> NeverCast: I've got OpenJDK, but I don't really do anything with java. I've had problems with Sun Java, but they might have fixed it.
[04:37] <alex87> i have an if statement in beforeFilter setting different Auth->allows depending on whether the user is admin or not, but any logged in user can access all pages
[04:37] <jnewbuntu> wookienz,  All fakeraid stuff belongs in the BIOS. See if you have BIOS options to enable/re-enable it.
[04:38] <neo_> could anybody help me to change the GB18030 code for Chinses
[04:38] <tim> NeverCast: I would suggest posting a bug on the game's website or contacting the developers. This isn't an Ubuntu or Java issue, but something with the game.
[04:38] <sweetpi> tgalal: the use the -f option to specify where the file goes(man ssh-keygen)
[04:38] <neo_> the default code is UTF-
[04:38] <NeverCast> tim, Okay will do.
[04:38] <dakota> Grub keeps finding my windows boot drive automatically, which I don't like , I wanted the Windows and Ubuntu installs to be separate, I already have other means for selectin a boot device.
[04:38] <NeverCast> tim, I'm just supprised that an application can cause the entire system to halt.
[04:38] <neo_> en
[04:38] <tim> NeverCast: Entire system?!
[04:39] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, You also mentioned raid 0.  Do you have another disk? perhaps /dev/sda?  Has that gone bad?
[04:39] <dakota> any ideas?
[04:39] <kickingintender> dakota how
[04:39] <skorn> Since it isnt mounting what can I do to find out what it is under and mount it
[04:39] <neo_> help@#$
[04:39] <NeverCast> tim, Nothing works, I have to pull out the power.
[04:39] <tim> dakota: Try installing a program called Startup Manager.
[04:39] <NeverCast> tim, I don't know if it's just GNOME that dies, or everything.
[04:39] <ajmetal87> If a help file were to tell me to "add voiceenabled=0" to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini" Where would I go to modify what needs to be taken care of?
[04:39] <ajmetal87> hello
[04:39] <neo_> I think the grub.conf could help
[04:40] <ejv> Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work?
[04:40] <neo_> I have changed the order of boot with Windows and Ubuntu
[04:40] <dakota> well in my bios theres an easy way to switch a different boot drive with the F12 button, so I dident want windows in my GRUB boot loader because there on two separate Hard drives.
[04:40] <ajmetal87> If a help file were to tell me to "add voiceenabled=0" to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini" Where would I go to modify what needs to be taken care of?
[04:40] <neo_> e
[04:40] <neo_> could anybody call my name
[04:40] <trism> dakota: if you don't want grub to add other operating systems, you can sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober; sudo update-grub; and if you want them to be probed in the future you can make the script executable again and rerun update-grub
[04:40] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: yes sda and sdb are the raid 0 array. the chipset is sb710 which is fakeraid - just looking at it now to try and get more info... ill paste trhe output of fdisk as it talks about GPT partitions.
[04:40] <tim> NeverCast: Wow.  It's probably an X11 problem. Try to drop it to a TTY when that happens. Press Control+Alt+1 or 2 or 3 and get it into a terminal and see what's running.
[04:41] <dakota> What does start-up manager do?
[04:41] <sweetpi> ajmetal87: ~ means your home directory
[04:41] <tim> dakota: It lets you edit GRUB in a nice graphical program.
[04:41] <ajmetal87> sweetpi How do I access that? I'm sorry, I am brand new.
[04:41] <dakota> I am also having a problem gettin my AMD desktop to boot from a Ubuntu USB installer. it just hangs..
[04:41] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kJyVfR8P
[04:41] <kickingintender> manages startup app's i think
[04:41] <tgalal> sweetpi: so I dump the key into a users .ssh folder, the private and public keys would just be associated and working correctly for that user ?
[04:41] <skorn> Would it make a difference that my drive is hfs+ in it mounting?
[04:42] <tim> ajmetal87: put in the terminal "gedit ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini"
[04:42] <rjb> Ubuntu 10.04, Chromium, Nvidia 256.35 error: Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.
[04:42] <NeverCast> tim, Control+Alt+1,2 or 3?
[04:42] <sweetpi> tgalal: yes, just make sure you output them to the users .ssh directory(sudo)
[04:42] <NeverCast> tim, does this toggle between
[04:43] <NeverCast> TTY and UI?
[04:43] <tim> NeverCast: It toggels between TTY's
[04:43] <tgalal> sweetpi: great! thanks a lot will try that
[04:43] <ajmetal87> tim, When I do that , it opens 3 empty windows, Local, Application and prefs.ini
[04:43] <dakota> Anyone got any good Video conference app ideas?
[04:43] <sweetpi> ajmetal87: wrap the path in quotes
[04:43] <NeverCast> tim, How do I get back to the UI
[04:44] <jnewbuntu> wookienz,  Do an fdisk on /dev/mapper/pdc_fhdeecgf or an ls -l on /dev/mapper/pdc_fhdeecgf
[04:44] <tim> NeverCast: Whoops. It's Ctrl+Alt+F1 or F2 or F3.
[04:44] <tim> NeverCast: Ctrl+F7 gets back to GUI
[04:44] <ajmetal87> Is the path ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini ?
[04:44] <sweetpi> ajmetal87: gedit "~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini"
[04:44] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: only "control" shows.
[04:45] <tim> NeverCast: I mean Ctrl+Alt+F7
[04:45] <arunkumar413> hi,when i compile a c code it is replacing the previous compiled file.how to compile without affecting the already compiled files
[04:45] <tim> NeverCast: Haha. I'm sorry about all of the typos...
[04:45] <sweetpi> ajmetal87: its because of the spaces i the path
[04:45] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, ok.  If fakeraid enabled in BIOS?
[04:45] <Abhishek_Singh> hello everyone!!
[04:45] <kickingintender> hiiiiiiiiiii
[04:45] <tim> ajmetal87: Can you explain where the file is you want to edit?
[04:46] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: yes. same setup when it was running w7.
[04:46] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> Uh guys, I'm connected with Telnet, why? because I can't get back to the UI
[04:46] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: the raid config in bios reports it as healthy and functional
[04:46] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> How do I get back to O.. gnome?
[04:46] <Abhishek_Singh> can anybody please suggest me how to connect a huwaei datacard in ubuntu 10.04?
[04:46] <ajmetal87> Tim, my wine help file in winehq states "If Eve crashes/hangs after the character selection you need to add "voiceenabled=0" to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/username/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings/prefs.ini. This is needed if you have a voice enabled account or try to test on Singularity when voice is enabled there."
[04:46] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> tim, how do I get back to Gnome?
[04:46] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, and yet you cant boot to win7
[04:47] <synth> Is it possible to configure a WPA2 wireless interface in /etc/network/interfaces?  Network Manager refuses to reconnect to my wireless.  It did the first time.. ever since then it wont reconnect.  even if I delete the entry and readd it.. so I want to go around networkmanager unless there's a fix. anyone?
[04:47] <tim> FAILINGNEVERCAST: Hmm.. Are you on your computer right now?
[04:47] <Nai-ux> hi, im trying to troubleshoot a networking problem with a live cd, eth0 is up, hosts file ok, default route set, iptables flushed, tcpdump shows "truncated-arp" when i ping
[04:47] <Abhishek_Singh> i am hving problem doing so, since huwaei is compatible with windows and mac
[04:47] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> tim, I'm in the TTY using telnet for iRC
[04:47] <CkhiKuzad> i need some help. i have an m-net shell now, and i need to know how to get files from my computer onto the shell
[04:47] <tim> ajmetal87: Go to "Applications>Wine>Browse C: Drive" and find the .ini file and add it to that using gedit.
[04:47] <sweetpi> ajmetal87: see my previous msg about gedit, since the path had spaces it was opening individual files
[04:48] <tim> FAILINGNEVERCAST: Have you tried booting Ubuntu into recovery mode?
[04:48] <wookienz> no, w7 is long gone...i installed ubuntu on the boot drive (/dev/sdc, a ssd). even when i resinatlled w7 back on the boot drive it couldnt access it though i may not have loadedd the driver at install time.
[04:48] <Abhishek_Singh> how can i connect huwei datacard in ubuntu 10.04?
[04:48] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> tim, lol.. I pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1, ended up in a TTY.. now I'm in the TTY I don't know how to get back to GNOME.
[04:48] <FAILINGNEVERCAST> tim, How do I get back to the UI?
[04:49] <synth> I cant be the only one having trouble with Network Manager
[04:49] <alex87> FAILINGNEVERCAST, ctrl alt f7
[04:49] <NeverCast> WIN!
[04:49] <NeverCast> Thanks guys
[04:49] <False_chicken> My drive is failing and I cant boot into it. But I can get to my home folder from the live cd. And I want to back it up and restore it on a new install. But many files I dont have permission to access. Any Advice?
[04:49] <NeverCast> l2know IRC Protocol.
[04:49] <tim> FAILINGNEVERCAST: Press Ctrl+Alt+F7
[04:49] <NeverCast> tim, I'm back (:
[04:50] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: w7 is long gone...i installed ubuntu on the boot drive (/dev/sdc, a ssd). even when i resinatlled w7 back on the boot drive it couldnt access it though i may not have loadedd the driver at install time.
[04:50] <tim> False_chicken: You can do some transfers in Ubuntu by going to the Terminal in Applications>Accessories>Terminal and typing "gksu nautilus"
[04:50] <tim> NeverCast: good! What's next?
[04:51] <arunkumar413> hi,when i compile a c code it is replacing the previous compiled file.how to compile without affecting the already compiled files
[04:51] <NeverCast> tim, I'm going to install OpenJDK
[04:51] <NeverCast> tim, and run the game
[04:51] <NeverCast> tim, I'll let you know what happens
[04:51] <DocPlatypus> False_chicken: try 'gksudo nautilus'
[04:51] <tim> NeverCast: Ok. Fingers crossed!
[04:51] <False_chicken> Oh. thanks! Now after I backup how can I restore the files to the new user (Same name and password) and set the permissions?
[04:52] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, I take it that sdc is not a part of fakeraid.  Where did you install the GRUB of ubuntu?
[04:52] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: sdc
[04:52] <sweetpi> arunkumar413: maybe your looking for the -o outputfile option
[04:52] <jnewbuntu> So with your BIOS set to sdc can you boot into ubuntu
[04:52] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, So with your BIOS set to sdc can you boot into ubuntu
[04:52] <tim> False_chicken: Yes. What are you transferring them to? A USB hard drive or another drive with Ubuntu installed?
[04:53] <False_chicken> A usb drive. Then after new install I would like to restore the home folder
[04:53] <DocPlatypus> False_chicken: simplest way is to format the USB drive as ext4, second easiest is to make a tar.bz2 of your home dir
[04:53] <th_> hi all. I have dual screen system and I'd like 2 wallpapers. is this possible?
[04:54] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: "set to sdc" i have a 6 port SATA stack. First 4 ports have  2 x 250gb drives (the raid 0) ie 2 not used. Port 5,6 is the ssd (sdc) and cdrom. BIOS is set to raid fro port 1-4 and IDe for port 5-6.
[04:54] <wookienz> "set to sdc" ?
[04:54] <skorn> Please can someone help me mount an hfs+ journaled drive
[04:54] <tim> False_chicken: Don't really worry about formatting your USB stick to anything special. Just transfer the files over to the stick and when you put them back on your computer, they will be fine.
[04:55] <False_chicken> Oh. So as long as the username and password are the same ill be ok?
[04:55] <NeverCast> OpenJDK is apparently out of date.
[04:56] <NeverCast> and it's the latest lol.
[04:56] <skorn> does anyone know how to mount hfs+ drives
[04:56] <tim> False_chicken: It's pretty complex. When you take them from your Ubuntu HD (probably ext4 or ext3) and put them on a USB, it will lose the special permissions because the USB drive is FAT32. When you transfer them back when you get your Ubuntu back up, they will be given the right permissions by whatever user you are logged in as.
[04:57] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, are you able to boot into ubuntu?
[04:57] <False_chicken> Oh. ok. Thanks All.
[04:57] <NeverCast> tim, Okay here goes. I'm going to hit 'play' I'll let you know if this thing dies.
[04:57] <wildbat> is there a tools to modify the moditfied/access time of the file ?
[04:57] <tim> skorn: Yes. Hold on. I'm looking it up real quick...
[04:58] <NeverCast> tim, It WAS working for like 10 seconds
[04:58] <NeverCast> tim, Now Java crashed.. which is better than my computer crashing :P
[04:58] <tim> NeverCast: Well. That's better than nothing. Try getting a PPA for OpenSDK
[04:58] <NeverCast> tim, 'PPA' ?
[04:59] <ejv> Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work?
[04:59] <tim> NeverCast: Personal Package Arcives. They usually have an unstable version of the program, but they are the bleeding edge and might work magically.
[05:00] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: where i am now.
[05:00] <NeverCast> tim, Okay I'll look into it.
[05:00] <IdeAleSs> Openoffice on 10.04 is about to drive me nuts.  I am working on 5 similar docs.  It works for a while then won't open them.  I have already redone them once and have wasted over 10 hours.  Anyone know how to tell what in the odt file is crashing the program?
[05:01] <tim> skorn: Ok got it. Go to the Ubuntu Software Center and install these programs: hfsplus, hfsprogs, and hfsutils
[05:01] <tim> skorn: That should help you.
[05:01] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, I assuming you are able to get into ubuntu.  Can you fire up gparted.
[05:01] <kickingintender> macros?
[05:01] <tim> NeverCast: Ok. Hope it solves your problem. That sounds annoying...
[05:01] <kickingintender> IdeAleSs
[05:01] <Tohuw> I've got a folder "foo". I ran chmod 2775 . from within the directory to add a sticky bit. Why doesn't chmod 0775 . unset it?
[05:01] <IdeAleSs> kickingintender :-)
[05:01] <tim> NeverCast: Here you go. https://launchpad.net/~openjdk/+archive/ppa
[05:02] <Ububegin> I like to download some stuff from a ftp folder.. How can i use wget to recursively download all the stuff inside..
[05:02] <IdeAleSs> kickingintender, oh, :-)  no, no macros.
[05:02] <tim> NeverCast: Add that PPA, update and upgrade.
[05:02] <NeverCast> tim, Ironically that is the same link that firefox gave me for 'OpenJDK PPA' lol.
[05:02] <IdeAleSs> kickingintender, a header / image / four cell table, and text.
[05:02] <tim> Ububegin: Recursively? What do you mean?
[05:02] <tim> NeverCast: Haha. Do you know how to install that PPA?
[05:02] <wookienz> jnewbuntu: i started gparted about 30 minutes ago and it is stuck sitting on "searching /dev/sdb partitions"
[05:03] <kickingintender> might be a bug
[05:03] <kickingintender> update/report a bug
[05:03] <Tohuw> Ububegin: you'd need to scan all the contents of the directory, then grab them.
[05:03] <tim> IdeAleSs: Can you explain again what the issue is?
[05:03] <IdeAleSs> kickingintender, it is a pretty major bug!  Renders OO useless for me.
[05:03] <Ububegin> tim,Tohuw : found this link, guy.. http://rasterweb.net/raster/2007/02/14/recursive-ftp-using-wget/
[05:04] <Tohuw> Ububegin: in other words, ls . > list and run wget against that list (or so, there's a million ways)
[05:04] <Tohuw> oh
[05:04] <Tohuw> interesting
[05:04] <Tohuw> I odn't use wget enough
[05:04] <Tohuw> clearly
[05:04] <tim> Ububegin: Hope that solves it!
[05:04] <Tohuw> I've got a folder "foo". I ran chmod 2775 . from within the directory to add a sticky bit. Why doesn't chmod 0775 . unset it?
[05:04] <NeverCast> tim, I'm sure I will know how to install it once i download it (:
[05:04] <IdeAleSs> tim, I am creating some bid sheets for an auction.  As long as the files were small (3 or 4 pages) there were no problem.  They are now 8 to 12 pages and worked fine until I close them.
[05:05] <Ububegin> tim : quite cool huh.. just use wget -r ... :D
[05:05] <tim> NeverCast: Well... You aren't really installing or downloading anything...
[05:05] <tim> Ububegin: Wow! Easier than I thought!
[05:05] <IdeAleSs> tim, now when I open one the memory takes of and tops at about 2GB and the program is non responsive.  Sometimes it may try to act normal until I save the file and the same thing happens.
[05:05] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, does sudo fdisk pdc_fhdeecgf give anything?
[05:05] <tim> IdeAleSs: Can you try opening those documents in AbiWord or Google Docs to see if you can save them in a different format?
[05:06] <Ububegin> tim,Tohuw : Yeah.. Linux just makes everything simple.. Heil Linus Torwalds...
[05:06] <Petskull> does this crash firefox on ubuntu for anybody? http://www.3dtotal.com/tutorial/3d_studio_max/hard_surface_essentials/hard_surface_02.php

[05:08] <rocket16> How to replace nautilus completely with PCmanfm? I tried the guide on Ubuntuforums, and backed up and removed nautilus as said in both guides of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=692238 but still nautilus is loading, :(
[05:08] <Petskull> wtf?
[05:08] <rocket16> ?

[05:09] <tim> rocket16: Can you remove nautilus from your startup programs?
[05:09] <sweetpi> synth: you can use wpasupplicant in combination with the wpa-conf option in your interfaces file
[05:09] <Petskull> hmm... can I set it to not load it?
[05:09] <jnewbuntu> wookienz, I am sorry, I am out of ideas.  tried whatever I knew of fakeraid here.  Hope someone else can help. Or you could try the forums - http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=331
[05:09] <Petskull> it must be the filesize

[05:09] <rocket16> tim: Nautilus isn't there, :'

[05:11] <rocket16> tim: No problem, :)
[05:11] <tim> Petskull: Here you go: http://www.3dtotal.com/tutorial/3d_studio_max/hard_surface_essentials/HSE_Part2.zip

[05:12] <tim> IdeAleSs: Have you tried opening it in AbiWord?
[05:12] <NeverCast> tim, Normally I don't fail at installing stuff lol. I would like to think I was proficient enough in Linux to achieve this. But how do I install the PPA? :P
[05:12] <Petskull> thanks!
[05:12] <Petskull> can you get me the 3rd one?
[05:12] <dankobum> rolf@Dell-D810-Ubuntu:~$ ssh  <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:13] <bastid_raZor> ajmetal87: that has nothing to do with Ubuntu. it is your pirated windows iso that is faulty

[05:13] <tim> NeverCast: No worries. It shouldn't be this hard in the first place. The developers should do somethig about that.
[05:14] <IdeAleSs> tim, just installed AbiWord and trying now.
[05:14] <Petskull> tim?
[05:14] <NeverCast> tim, I got key 214AEA0E: public key "Launchpad PPA for OpenJDK" imported
[05:14] <NeverCast> but where do I go from here.
[05:14] <tim> Petskull: Hold on... I'm going as fast as i can...
[05:14] <Petskull> rgr
[05:14] <Petskull> no hurry
[05:15] <NeverCast> Petskull, I think tim's mental resources are at 100% at the moment.
[05:15] <tim> NeverCast: Ok. Now terminal "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" then launch the wurms app when it's done.
[05:15] <Petskull> heh
[05:15] <Petskull> page it out on your arm, man!

[05:15] <NeverCast> upgrade!
[05:15] <NeverCast> Oh yup
[05:15] <NeverCast> I typed update and not upgrade.
[05:15] <rocket16> Is there a Firefox-like browser which functions exactly like Firefox, consuming less memory? (Chrome is horrible, and Opera isn't open-source)
[05:15] <IdeAleSs> tim, AbiWord opens it about as well as GD.  It did keep the footer though.
[05:16] <NeverCast> rocket16, How much memory do you consider little memory?
[05:16] <resno> ive got the server runnig at home now-a-days.when i issue " sudo modprobe cpufreq_ondemand" i get module unknown.
[05:16] <bastid_raZor> sweetpi: please join #ubuntu-offtopic for offtopic chat
[05:16] <NeverCast> rocket16, You can probably find a build of Firefox with struff stripped out.
[05:16] <rocket16> NeverCast: Around 20 MB
[05:16] <tim> IdeAleSs: That looks like it's the best you're gonna get... :p I would try saving the document in .doc
[05:16] <dankobum> http://paste.ubuntu.com/458145/   I have a problem with opening a display via ssh

[05:17] <needpieceofmind> whats the simpliest way to get the new 10.4 to see the bcm43xx
[05:17] <bastid_raZor> sweetpi: attempting to boot a cd has nothing to do with Ubuntu.
[05:17] <resno> i am trying to setup cpu throttling and power management. when i issue " sudo modprobe cpufreq_ondemand" to change the mangement i get module unknown.
[05:18] <IdeAleSs> tim, I did.  Well, I downloaded from GD in .doc.  I would save it that way from OO if I could open it.
[05:18] <sweetpi> bastid_raZor: he is talking about booting an iso via grub, which was installed by ubuntu
[05:18] <IdeAleSs> tim, this is the first time that OO (linux / open source) has really let me down.  I have wasted hours on this and am so tempted to just do it at work with word.  Never thought I would think that.
[05:19] <dankobum> prince_jammys, both does not work, same problem
[05:19] <koanhead> is there a key combo to put my desktop to sleep?
