[19:03] <JWFoxJr> Hi, I have HP Elitebook 8460p, Ubuntu 11.10, Gnome Shell, and I can't find a way to disable the trackpad. Even I select disable trackpad, it's still active? Anyone have any ideas?
[19:03] <JWFoxJr> s/I select/if I select/g
[19:03] <DinoMuffin> JWFoxJr: you mean the tapping or the entire touchpad?
[19:04] <JWFoxJr> DinoMuffin: the entire touchpad
[19:04] <Haferstroh> DinoMuffin, I open nautilus, plug in a usbstick, open the usbstick and then I unmount the usbstick and nautilus shuts down
[19:04] <danileigh79> Hey guys, I'm getting my daughter for the weekend, so I've got to go... he doesn't like it when I'm on the computer when my daughter is here :(
[19:05] <DinoMuffin> Haferstroh: I think nautilus is supposed to shutdown if it's in the same folder as an unmounted drive. Have you tried changing folders and then unmounting?
[19:05] <danileigh79> He= my ex
[19:05] <DinoMuffin> though, i havent used nautilus in a long time
[19:05] <danileigh79> Have a good weekend all, see you monday
[19:05] <Troller> see you
[19:05] <Haferstroh> danileigh79,  drive carefully :-)
[19:06] <danileigh79> Haferstroh: No driving :) they're coming here, but thanks
[19:06] <Haferstroh> ok then have a good time with "them" *g*
[19:06] <Haferstroh> @ danileigh79
[19:08] <DinoMuffin> JWFoxJr: try 'synclient TouchpadOff=1' in your console
[19:08] <ardian> I am booting my netbook with ubuntu 11.10 but I'm getting an error "An error occurred while mounting"
[19:10] <JWFoxJr> DinoMuffin: that did the trick - I guess I'll have to re-write my script that detects my USB mouse.
[19:10] <DinoMuffin> alrighy
[19:10] <JWFoxJr> DinoMuffin: Thanks!
[19:10] <DinoMuffin> No prob
[19:11] <calico> Can't burn a DVD in K3b... and it's urgent, can anybody help. :-( unable to O_EXCL /dev/sr0: someone was in time to remount
[19:12] <velko_> calico, if you have a permissions problem and you urgent have to do the job you can try to start k3b as root
[19:13] <calico> probvah, sudo k3b, ne stana ;[
[19:13] <velko_> calico, what happened instead?
[19:14] <calico> velko_,  got exactly the same erro
[19:14] <PioneerAxon> Hey all , from last few weeks, I am unable to get any updates on my ubuntu 11.10 running on kernel 3.0.0-14-generic.
[19:14] <PioneerAxon> it shows all my packages obsolete... :(
[19:14] <iHarp> Anyone know how to disable the (joined/quit) msgs in Xchat?
[19:15] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   it actually says "obsolete"?
[19:15] <simone> #list
[19:15] <PioneerAxon> CFHowlett: yes, all of them are listed under local (obsolete) category in synaptic..
[19:15] <CFHowlett> iHarp   no - but if you add chatzilla plugin to ffox - no enter/exit msg's
[19:15] <velko_> calico, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3b/+bug/293420
[19:15] <calico> iHarp,  you can't, but you could change their color to the same as the backgrounnd color
[19:16] <iHarp> calico:   nice :p
[19:16] <azert> hi there

[19:16] <CFHowlett> azert   greetings
[19:16] <azert> i would like to make compatible my webcam on my ubuntu system what i have to do ?
[19:16] <azert> http://img.clubic.com/01407094-photo-logitech-quickcam-vision-pro-pour-mac.jpg
[19:16] <azert> this is it
[19:17] <iHarp> bastidrazor: Perfect. That's what I needed.
[19:17] <CFHowlett> azert  plug it in yet??
[19:17] <iHarp> It gets confusing sometimes.
[19:17] <rattatoue> I am running xubuntu. when I put a cd/dvd into the computers drive it doesn't auto mount or load it, any suggestions?
[19:17] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   that is one weird message - sorry but IDK what to say
[19:17] <rattatoue> !xubuntu
[19:18] <PioneerAxon> CFHowlett: Tried updating them all, but it doesn't help.. :(
[19:19] <calico> rebooting worked velko_  thanks
[19:19] <azert> yeah correct allready connected to my pc CFHowlett
[19:19] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   I'd guess a repository setting error, but I can't understand how ALL packages got hit.
[19:19] <calico> iHarp, you're welcome ;p
[19:19] <simone> !list
[19:19] <CFHowlett> azert   what app are you using to test the webcam?  cheese?  guvcview?
[19:20] <azert> terminal
[19:20] <PioneerAxon> CFHowlett: Looks like keys are corrupt.... Can you help me configure them from keyserver.ubuntu.com ? when I try to get them from my browser, it just opens them in text mode.. :(
[19:20] <simone> ciao
[19:20] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   I'd say re-key them ... wait one got something for you
[19:20] <CFHowlett> !it|simone
[19:21] <arowana> with Xchat how do I stop the people connect/disconnected thing?
[19:21] <calico> arowana, ask iHarp
[19:21] <pangolin> arowana: right click on the channel name
[19:21] <azert> i m using terminal CFHowlett where when i do dmesg i can see nothing
[19:22] <arowana> Well now that makes sense :) thanks
[19:22] <pangolin> arowana: sure thing, there is also a #xchat
[19:22] <PioneerAxon> CFHowlett: I didn't understand.. I don't know italian.. :(
[19:22] <arowana> aha
[19:22] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon  for rebuilding the source list to default...http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/index.php
[19:22] <calico> arowana, just change the color for these events to whatever your background color is
[19:23] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   wait 1 ...
[19:23] <rattatoue> I need a little help, my cd/dvd is not automounting when I put it in.
[19:23] <pangolin> calico: why offer a complicated solution when there is an easy one?
[19:23] <zykotick9> rattatoue: data cd/dvd, or audio cd & video dvd?
[19:23] <calico> pangolin,  and what is the easier solution mate?
[19:24] <pangolin> calico: to right click on the channel name and disable the events
[19:24] <rattatoue> zykotick9, anything. Nothing I put in the drive shows up, when I try to manually mount it. Says its not in the fstab
[19:24] <ssta> aromasca: /ignore #ubuntu JOINS PARTS
[19:24] <CFHowlett> azert   also, look  at rekeying your sources ... http://www.learningubuntu.com/tips/how-get-missing-ppa-gpg-keys-automatically
[19:25] <zykotick9> rattatoue: with a data cd/dvd, try "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt" do you get an error?
[19:25] <rattatoue> zykotick9, "/dev/cdrom does not exist"
[19:25] <DinoMuffin> try dvd
[19:26] <zykotick9> rattatoue: that would be the issue then.  try "dmesg | grep sr0" any errors?
[19:26] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   see http://blog.ibeentoubuntu.com/2008/03/how-do-you-check-if-your-webcam-is.html
[19:26] <zykotick9> DinoMuffin: both /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd are just links to sr0 usually
[19:26] <davv3> hello. how do i refresh my repo? using aptitude from commandline
[19:26] <davv3> i get 404 trying to install packages as it is
[19:26] <rattatoue> zykotick9, a lot of Medium Error [current]
[19:26] <DinoMuffin> true
[19:27] <velko_> davv3, just like you would if you used apt-get: sudo aptitude update
[19:27] <CFHowlett> davv3   sudo apt-get update
[19:27] <zykotick9> rattatoue: what does "ls -l /dev/cdrom" show?
[19:27] <davv3> velko_: CFHowlett: thanks !
[19:27] <rattatoue> zykotick9, no such file or directory
[19:27] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   experiment with selecting a different server too
[19:27] <zykotick9> rattatoue: sorry
[19:28] <zykotick9> rattatoue: does "grep cdrom /etc/fstab" show anything?
[19:29] <rattatoue> zykotick9, no. I did try this earlier. sudo lshw -C disk. And it says according to it my cdrom is /dev/scd0.
[19:29] <PioneerAxon> CFHowlett: I replaced my /etc/source.list But, when I run apt-get update, it just completes without doing anything...
[19:29] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   paste
[19:29] <CFHowlett> !paste|PioneerAxon
[19:30] <Bodsda> PioneerAxon: you mean /etc/apt/sources.list   yeah?

[19:43] <mroth1> I have a server that is authenticating with an external LDAP master server
[19:43] <CFHowlett> PioneerAxon   -v
[19:44] <mroth1> in my nsswitch.conf file I don't add ldap to shadow

[19:44] <mroth1> at the same time my ldap groups are not importing into the server

[19:55] <julian_> hi
[19:55] <CFHowlett> julian_   greetings
[19:55] <julian_> Today I got some themes from site
[19:55] <julian_> and when I opened them
[19:56] <drno_> In a software RAID scenario (raid6), if there are 8 devices, and three go offline causing the raid to be fairly broken, is there a way to force mdadm to rebuild the array using specific disks regardless of whether they were successfully integrated 100% into the array?
[19:56] <julian_> it said you should use gdm setup
[19:56] <julian_> what should I do?
[19:57] <julian_> heeeey?
[19:57] <julian_> anybody there?
[19:57] <klmmlk> hooooy ?
[19:57] <CFHowlett> !pateince|julian_
[19:57] <klmmlk> nope.
[19:57] <julian_> ok
[19:57] <klmmlk> i'me not here.
[19:57] <Pici> julian_: What release of Ubuntu are you suing?
[19:57] <klmmlk> I'm an illusion !
[19:57] <Pici> *using
[19:57] <julian_> let me see
[19:57] <drno_> So, basically curious if I can tell it... /dev/sd[abcdegh]2 are good, and that it should trust  me regardless of the status in the superblock
[19:58] <drno_> Or.. if there's a way to force a status by way of modifying the upserblock
[19:58] <klmmlk> The best Ubuntu distribution ever ! ==> Debian
[19:58] <klmmlk> XD
[19:58] <klmmlk> ;)
[19:58] <ardian> Pici, I am booting my netbook with ubuntu 11.10 but I'm getting an error "An error occurred while mounting"
[19:58] <Pici> klmmlk: If you don't have a support question, you can chitchat in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[19:58] <julian_> 10.10
[19:58] <klmmlk> I know. Okay. I stop doin idiot... well
[19:58] <rattatoue> velko_, just fixed my problem. I dont know which solution did, it was either the fstab or the changing my rc.local from one of the forum post. All I know is restarting now it all works like it should of to begin with :) thanks
[19:59] <velko_> rattatoue, congrats
[19:59] <julian_> PiCi?
[20:00] <Pici> julian_: I don't believe  that the version of gdm in 10.10 supports theming the same way that earlier releases did.
[20:01] <julian_> ok
[20:01] <julian_> but what should I do for changing my login screen?
[20:04] <theadmin> !gdm2setup | julian_
[20:04] <yombinator> Hi all, I recently installed 64 bit Ubuntu 11.10.  Having problems linking against the GMP (GNU Multiple Precision) libraries.  I installed libgmp-dev and its prerequisites, but compiling even the simplest test programs (using "gcc -lgmp foo.c" or "g++ -lgmpxx -lgmp bar.cpp") dies with tons of undefined references.  Anyone have any ideas?
[20:05] <julian_> Thanks
[20:05] <j2_> Hello
[20:05] <j2_> is there a link to the Ubuntu beta from the Website?
[20:05] <chosig> On the front page
[20:05] <CFHowlett> !precise|j2_
[20:06] <theadmin> j2_: If you can't even find it, you seriously shouldn't be using it...
[20:06] <theadmin> j2_: No offense, but
[20:06] <sveinse> I have a older Shuttle barebone running Oneiric. Its a amd64 3800+ CPU. /proc/cpuinfo reports cpu MHz constantly at 1000. Is this what I should expect?
[20:06] <CFHowlett> theadmin   /slient assent/
[20:06] <theadmin> CFHowlett: wut?
[20:06] <CFHowlett> theadmin   agreement
[20:06] <theadmin> CFHowlett: Ah.
[20:08] <j2_> theadmin, chosig: Where?
[20:08] <Pici> j2_: theres a link in the topic of #ubuntu+1
[20:08] <j2_> Pici: I know how to get it. I was asking if it was linked from the website
[20:09] <wylde> sveinse: does it stay at 1Ghz if it's under load? I would think it's probably just cpu throttling.
[20:11] <sveinse> wylde: I would too. The web tells me that 1GHz is the slowest speed of the processor. I've tried upping the load, but I haven't been able to yet
[20:11] <velko_> yombinator, this is from the gmp front page: http://pastebin.com/XLYHb54D
[20:12] <sveinse> wylde, i.e. I haven't been able to load the system such that the cpu frequency increases
[20:13] <velko_> yombinator, it also says "Gcc 4.3.2 miscompiles GMP on 64-bit machines; please use a different gcc version"
[20:13] <wylde> sveinse: I like to use mksquashfs to put load on my procs
[20:14] <wylde> sveinse: I compress my music diretory to an xz compressed filesystem, puts plenty of load on mine.
[20:16] <wylde> sveinse: and it takes quite a while to complete so I have lots of time to check on proc load, temp readings etc.
[20:17] <yombinator> velko_, indeed, could be a compiler problem.  But, I'm using gcc 4.6.1, and my (64bit) gcc 4.4.3 running on ubuntu 10.10 still compiles the same files w/o problems.  Also, the compiler v4.6.1 on the 11.10 machine compiles fine ("gcc -c foo.c" works).  It's just in the linking phase that it can't resolve the relevant symbols.
[20:17]  * j2_ pokes theadmin and chosig
[20:17] <radimj> hey, anyone willing to help me with the Mono related problem? mono IRC seems useless
[20:18] <theadmin> j2_: I actually can't find the link in any obvious place anymore. Weird.
[20:18] <sveinse> wylde: Excellent. That certainly increased the load and the cpu frequency! Suspicion busted! Thanks
[20:19] <wylde> sveinse: glad to help :)
[20:19] <Ebron> New install question. The partition manager has something called "EFI boot partition", however I was sure that the last time I installed ubuntu I just went for ext4 mounted on /boot - what am I missing here? Is EFI actually what I typically mount in /boot, or is it something else entirely?
[20:19] <j2_> theadmin: maybe you shouldn't be using it? :)
[20:20] <velko_> yombinator, have you tried to compile with clang? no idea if it will be an improvement...
[20:20] <theadmin> j2_: Me? I don't use the beta, hell, I'm not an Ubuntu user, I use Arch. I excuse myself for being rude -- I thought you were just one of those who are all like "WHERE I GET BETA"
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> j2_: theadmin: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu/12.04/
[20:20] <j2_> theadmin: Ah :-) What lead to that conclusion?
[20:21] <CFHowlett> Ebron   ext4 is the default.
[20:21] <j2_> ActionParsnip: I know where the beta is. I was asking if it could be found on the Ubuntu Website
[20:21] <skulltip> what cli command can i give to tell me if my hard-wired network card can handle N- speeds?
[20:21]  * ActionParsnip is the only person allowed to websearch it seems
[20:21] <Ebron> CFHowlett: So what is this EFI good for?
[20:21] <theadmin> j2_: That'd be offtopic, sorry -- we can take that to a PM session if you wish
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> j2_: its not for the masses as its not ready, so it won't be on the website
[20:22] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: That's not the issue, the issue is "why is it not linked at ubuntu.com anymore"
[20:22] <klmmlk> skulltip, the N-sped isnt for wireless ?
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: because its beta, so its stops new users trying to install it and getting all kinds of issues
[20:22] <yombinator> velko_, no not yet.  I'll give it a go.  Also, rebuilding the gmp sources separately to see if gcc can link against those.
[20:22] <j2_> ActionParsnip: It was there earlier
[20:22] <CFHowlett> Ebron   IDK.  I've got it by I installed ubuntu with ext4 anyway.  Pretty sure efi is related to boot partition/configuration.
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> j2_: then i'd ask in #ubuntu+1
[20:22] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: But... wasn't it linked like a few weeks ago?
[20:22] <j2_> ActionParsnip: fair enough
[20:22] <itaylor57> j2_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/TechnicalOverview/Beta1
[20:23] <j2_> itaylor57: I suppose that's good enough
[20:23] <SixtyFold> i wouldnt have even switched to 11.10 yet if it wasnt the first official lubuntu version
[20:23] <skulltip> klmmlk - dohh.. is it as fast through wired then?
[20:24] <j2_> ah.
[20:24] <SixtyFold> skulltip: it's faster hardwired
[20:24] <j2_> theadmin: www.ubuntu.com/testing seems to be a stable URL to point to
[20:24] <goldins> hi, why do I have packages that have been "kept back" when I run apt-get upgrade?
[20:24] <klmmlk> nothing is better than a wire...
[20:24] <DrSlony> Hey, I wrote a bash script that uses whatever notification system is available, and with Ubuntu that would be Zenity.  Is there a zenity option to display the notification and keep the script going, or do I have to use & ?
[20:24] <theadmin> j2_: Ah. Thanks.
[20:24] <skulltip> ok, trying to figure out why my ping is terrible in over half the oa servers, but seem ok in other games
[20:24] <DrSlony> Secondly, does zenity allow newlines, if so, how?
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> goldins: because the packages are ready, but its deps are not
[20:25] <goldins> ActionParsnip: thanks!
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> goldins: when the deps are met, the upgrade will happen
[20:25] <theadmin> goldins: These packages have new dependencies, use "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[20:25] <carl-eric> I'm seeing WLAN brownouts, with 100% packet loss for a few seconds, then a slow rampup to acceptable levels again. dmesg gives me "wlan0: Wrong control channel in association response: configured center-freq: 2452 hti-cfreq: 2472  hti->control_chan: 13 band: 0.  Disabling HT.", but google didn't find anything for that.
[20:25] <wunnle> hello
[20:25] <CFHowlett> wunnle   greetings
[20:26] <velko_> DrSlony, have you tried "\n" for newlines? never used zenity tough...
[20:26] <DrSlony> velko_: yes...
[20:26] <klmmlk> skulltip, but i dont understand your question. (poor english behind...) your question mean "is the wireless N-speed is good throug a wire" ??? but if it's trought a wire... it's not N... it's wire...
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: if you disable ipv6 does it help
[20:27] <klmmlk> what did I not understand ?
[20:27] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, I've never done anything with ipv6 - how would i turn it off? And what does ipv6 have to do with it?
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: it can help with connections
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: is it a centrino wifi by any chance?
[20:28] <DrSlony> zenity --notification --text="`printf "Line one.\nLine two."`" is stupid.
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: add the boot option: ipv6.disable=1    as a boot option, its good to disable anyway if you don't use ipv6 anyway :)
[20:28] <wunnle> there is a strange bug with my ubuntu. sometimes (randomly) when i do alt+tab, unity bar, panel and titlebar of all windows are crashing. I just can click to foreground window, and i can't open any other window.
[20:29] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, one is a "Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100", the other is a  "Centrino Advanced-N 6205"
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: thought so
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: can you give the output of:  sudo lshw -C network | grep -i driver
[20:30] <Giddeon> i have a directory named "-r193" that i'd like to cd into.  When I try "cd -r193" I get a message about -r being an invalid option.  Any thoughts on how I can move into the directory?
[20:31] <DrSlony> cd \-r193
[20:31] <theadmin> Giddeon: cd ./-r193
[20:31] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, I'm on the machine with WiFi 5100, this is the output: configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=e1000e driverversion=1.2.20-k2 firmware=1.7-7 latency=0 link=no multicast=yes port=twisted pair       configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlagn driverversion=2.6.38-13-generic firmware=<IP_ADDRESS> build 33692 ip=<IP_ADDRESS> latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11abgn
[20:31] <klmmlk> carl-eric, is there many wireless devices around, or any other micro-wave sources ?
[20:31] <carl-eric> klmmlk, there's a ton of wireless networks in this apartment block
[20:31] <DrSlony> err
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: echo "options iwlagn 11n_disable50=1 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf; sudo modprobe -r iwlagn; sleep 2; sudo modprobe iwlagn
[20:32] <velko_> DrSlony, i cannot even test your example. the notification system of zentity obviously does not play very well with gnome-shell. maybe this is also a point which you'll have to take into consideration
[20:32] <klmmlk> carl-eric, try to set manualy a bitrate lower.
[20:32] <DrSlony> velko_: as theadmin wrote
[20:32] <klmmlk> iwconfig wlanX rate 5M
[20:32] <DrSlony> oh sorry, wrong nick
[20:32] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, that disables 802.11n, doesn't it?
[20:32] <rndmnck> Hello. I'm trying to get my Native Instruments Audio 4 DJ external soundcard working properly on Ubuntu 11.10. The device has 2 input and 2 output channels. The device is recognized by ALSA and is working, but I can only use the first input and the first output channel. I need to use the second output channel. The file /proc/asound/pcm has the following line "01-00: Audio 4 DJ : Audio 4 DJ : playback 2 : capture 2". So ALSA is recognizing th
[20:32] <rndmnck> at there are 2 ins and outs. (as opposed to "00-00: ALC269VB Analog : ALC269VB Analog : playback 1 : capture 1" for example).
[20:32] <DrSlony> velko_: i'll resort to `printf` and & (lame)
[20:33] <wunnle> looks like this bug -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/917560
[20:33] <CFHowlett> rndmnck   ask about this at audiodj  http://www.native-instruments.com/forum/showthread.php?t=109201
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: yes, some centtrino wifi rubbish has issues with n speed and makes it disconnect, so you stop it and the connection is steady
[20:34] <CFHowlett> rndmnck per audiodj, ubuntu is not supported
[20:35] <carl-eric> okay, ActionParsnip, I'll try that. thank you.
[20:36] <Giddeon> DrSlony, theadmin: thanks
[20:36] <rndmnck> CFHowlett: Some have already figured out how to get the Audio 4 DJ working properly with specific applications. I'm not sure how to interpret their solutions to fix my problem, but I think it can be fixed using their method. http://ywwg.com/wordpress/?p=772
[20:36] <wunnle> ok, let me try again in a better what. sometimes when i press alt+tab, unity crashes. What should i do?
[20:36] <wunnle> *way
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: the .conf file adds options so that the loading of the module uses those options. The modprobe commands will apply the settings without need for reboot :)
[20:37] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, yes, I've figured that much out at least :-)
[20:37] <CFHowlett> rndmnck   check in with #ubuntustudio
[20:37] <rndmnck> CFHowlett: thanks
[20:38] <klmmlk> ActionParsnip, and to try without making changes, only lower the bitrate with iwconfig could be a good idea no ?
[20:38] <axisys> how do I install ubuntu on a remote system.. i have ilom access through the SP only
[20:38] <axisys> probably should ask in #ubuntu-server
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: is it working ok?
[20:39] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, i'll have to disconnect and reconnect - I am on that machine connected with the wireless ;) give me a moment.
[20:39] <[[thufir]]> my hard drive is 90% full, and I want to write everything in /home to CD-R.  How can I automate that, so that I just pop discs in?
[20:41] <[[thufir]]> I don't want to backup system files, just files in /home.  it's all one partition.
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> [[thufir]]: open brasero or whatever cd burner app you use and you should be able to tell it to span multiple CDs
[20:43] <[[thufir]]> ohhhh.  didn't know that was built-in!  I just removed brasero and am using, err, gnomebuilder(?) or something.  I'll check that out!
[20:43] <[[thufir]]> ActionParsnip: thanks
[20:43] <klmmlk> [[thufir]], you have disc-O-matic
[20:43] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, so far it is working at least in sofar that I am connected
[20:44] <klmmlk> take a look here: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialCDBurn.html
[20:44] <[[thufir]]> klmmlk: that sounds right.  it looks like what I see on the ubuntu pages, the default sotware. I'll check out that link, thanks.  I just assumed fancy software was required.
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: it happens with those centrino things
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: until your web connection exceeds 54Mbps, you'll be ok
[20:45] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, my outside connection is 100Mbps... but I think I can live with the 50M inside
[20:46] <[[thufir]]> I don't have the space for ~20 iso's.  It only generates a single iso at a time for the data cd, yes?
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: wow, 50Mbps web connection, nice. Mines getting bumped to 120Mbps in summer :)
[20:47] <carl-eric> ActionParsnip, Fibre to the building :-)
[20:47] <_Marcus> ActionParsnip: Is that connection for your home?
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> _Marcus: indeed
[20:47] <waxstone> showoffs!!!
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> carl-eric: damn
[20:47] <_Marcus> ActionParsnip: D: We only got 50 Mbps up and down and this is Business Class
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> _Marcus: virgin media Uk's top speed
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> _Marcus: 50mbps up is niiiice
[20:48] <_Marcus> I need to move to the UK now
[20:48] <ssta> virgin are saying 200MBps should be starting to roll out by year end
[20:48]  * CFHowlett remembers my 1200 baud modem fondly
[20:48] <ssta> MINE IS STILL ONLY 50
[20:48] <ssta> oops
[20:48] <god-zotac> how do i access webdav shares using gvfs+thunar ?
[20:48] <ssta> "only".  I remember thinking 14k4 was *fast* :)
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: let me search
[20:51] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: thats what i've been doing, but there is nothing i can find that is straight forward about how to do it.. just things mentioning that it is possible, and how to use other file managers to do it.. i want to use thunar particularly though
[20:52] <fellayaboy> why cant i play certain wmv files
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[20:53] <god-zotac> oneiric ??
[20:53] <god-zotac> -sc reports n/a ActionParsnip
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: cool, thats teh release name
[20:54] <god-zotac> that's on this machine i'm using now which is "testing"
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: hmm, can you run:  cat /etc/lsb-release; apt-cache policy thunar    and pastebin the output please
[20:54] <slugzzz> Hi. I get this error trying to run a game: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0. I cannot seem to find libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 for lucid...
[20:54] <fellayaboy> why dont certain wmv files play when using them on a web intereface etc
[20:54] <god-zotac> i have a 11.10 install on the laptop which is acting the same way, and i want it to work on them both. im trying to integrate dropbox and owncloud across my devices.. i pretty much have everything working great, (also with nfs shares)  except thunar

[20:56] <klmmlk> [[thufir]], r u here ?
[20:56] <Dosmorpheus> can anyone help me with installing ubuntu on a mac?
[20:56] <[[thufir]]> klmmlk: yes, still looking at pages to see options
[20:56] <derp> I had issues installing on my air.
[20:57] <klmmlk> I remember of DAR, a replacement for tar that can achieve part of job on command lines.
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: precise isn't supported here
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[20:57] <rambo298> any wireless experts here?
[20:57] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: read above..
[20:57] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: i told you that this was an issue also on the laptop that is running 11.04..
[20:57] <god-zotac> err 11.10
[20:57] <alo21_> I have a problem with bzr
[20:58] <StepNjump> Hi, I have an app (alarm clock PID 21358) that seemingly crashes for no apparent reason. How can I find out why it crashed and at what time it crashed? I heard there are some logs???? May someone kindly put me in the right direction?
[20:58] <klmmlk> [[thufir]],  if you prefer command-lines tools, it can be usefull, dar, pipes, bzip2, mkisofs, cdrecord can do the job...
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> StepNjump: dmesg | tail   may help
[20:59] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: regardless of the version i installed. how do i get it working on 11.10 or 11.04 either one
[20:59] <rambo298> ok so i will make a general comment to the list; canonical is going to lose users if they keep releasing distros like 11.10 that break crap that used to work (like wireless). i am tired of hearing the same old stories of "proprietary drivers"; i will seriously consider Mint next time
[20:59] <[[thufir]]> with the backup, the only thing is that I can't make a tarball because I'm out of space.  I thought of that.
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: not used thunar in a long time, are there any bugs reported. I'v connected easily to various shares using pcmanfm if you can install taht
[20:59] <god-zotac> i doubt this is an ubuntu release issue as i have same issue on 11.10 and 12.04 both..
[20:59] <StepNjump> thanks ActionParsnip
[20:59] <god-zotac> i can install pcmanfm but thats not what the solution is
[21:00] <god-zotac> i want to use thunar.
[21:00] <god-zotac> and they claim on their site that it supports webdav by using gvfs some how
[21:00] <klmmlk> [[thufir]], with the pipes, you can make on-the-fly archives, without using temporary space...
[21:00] <[[thufir]]> ok, well I'm going to reboot, cross my fingers, etc, and upgrade.  then, later on, if my data is still there, I'll backup :)
[21:00] <klmmlk> I use that many times...
[21:00] <god-zotac> i've  yet to see any documentation explaining how to set it up though..
[21:01] <[[thufir]]> oh, pipes.  oh, like :    tar foo | cdrecord ....  something like that?
[21:01] <klmmlk> [[thufir]], yes. exactly
[21:01] <JJC2012> Er, I'm I imagining it, or the latest release starting from 11.xx towards 12.xx Update Manager no longer requires a password to do Updates!??
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: all I can suggest is report a bug
[21:01] <klmmlk> but with DAR, not TAR, because DAR is sooooo much powerfull
[21:02] <[[thufir]]> I'm not so strong in that.  can you give me some pointers to doing that?   I like that direction, never occurred to me.  I'll google that now.
[21:02] <ssta> JJC2012: you can set it up like that, but it's not recommended
[21:03] <JJC2012> ssta: It already comes that way....  I don't seem to have a choice ont it!
[21:03] <JJC2012> ...on it
[21:03] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: hard to report a bug with little information known about how I am even suppose to do what i am trying to do heh
[21:03] <klmmlk> [[thufir]], I'am not able to answer quickly to you. I ever do what I want, but it can take me long hours for a simple script...
[21:03] <Dosmorpheus> when i went to install ubuntu on my macbook pro iit told me to select a language and then i selected English and then install  it ran somethings i wasent realy paying atention and then it wend to something that looked sort of like terminal help?
[21:03] <crfripper> how do I add quicksynergy to startup applications? I gave command /usr/bin/quicksynergy and Name quicksynergy but it doesn't work
[21:04] <ssta> JJC2012: it is really all thagt onerous to type a password occasionally?
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> god-zotac: run:  ubuntu-bug thunar   and the process will start, you can explain the situation and the bug guys will ask you for outputs and so-forth
[21:05] <gnu87> hello
[21:05] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: funny, everytime i have took that approach someone closes the bug with a response "missing information"  or "invalid"  or "will not fix"

[21:09] <Ebron> So I have an SSD-drive for which I put swap, / and /home - then I have a bunch of datadrives, some new and one that used to be /home. When I hit the "install now" it complains that my previous /home drive is not assigned a mount point, and will not be used. There is no /media/whatever mount point - any suggestions (except throwing the dice and hoping for a later mount by fstab-entry)?

[21:12] <zabomber> amaroks: what do you mean?
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: you haven't tested the ISO you downloaded so you have no way of knowing if the file was correct and complete

[21:13] <zabomber> amaroks: so you want to install an app. what does that have to do with ssh? are you ssh'ed in? and what do you mean by "see what its doing"?
[21:13] <Dosmorpheus> is that the same thing?
[21:13] <gnu87> guys please help with eeepc x101ch (new atom cedar trail) and resolution and webcam

[21:14] <gnu87> HaikuUser: i do
[21:14] <dddbmt> zabomber, already in there - they can't help since the files weren't in a git repository before deleting.
[21:14] <amaroks> did you read last line? "Issue a reboot and when the server comes back up it will automatically finish the install. It may take a few minutes to complete, and you can watch the progress in the console" how can see that progress while im in terminal sshed zabomer

[21:17] <dddbmt> ActionParsnip, can you explain further? I had no backup of the files before deleting.. It was just a game I've developed the last few days.
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> magn3ts: its going to be dropped in Linux soon....
[21:17] <god-zotac> ActionParsnip:: thanks
[21:17] <magn3ts> I've never had this problem
[21:17] <dougl> how to I get my ubuntu to look like the old ubuntu?
[21:18] <magn3ts> ActionParsnip: seriously? source?
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> dddbmt: why do you not have a backup?
[21:18] <neo31> thanks xangua ActionParsnip
[21:18] <dougl> I cannot find anything...
[21:18] <aleth> milanoa: use cron
[21:18] <xangua> !nounity | dougl
[21:18] <dddbmt> ActionParsnip, adding the project to github was supposed to be my backup..

[21:19] <ActionParsnip> dddbmt: you could use foremost
[21:19] <dougl> xangua, thanks
[21:19] <magn3ts> ActionParsnip: that's a really, really bad headline
[21:19] <saeed> hi
[21:19] <magn3ts> ActionParsnip: Adobe isn't going to distrib because they suck at Linux, so Google will.
[21:19] <magn3ts> ActionParsnip: they're just changing from NPAPI to Pepper
[21:22] <aleth> milanoa: incron maybe
[21:23] <savid> How do I set the default application for a filetype?   For some reason, .xlsx files don't open up with LibreOffice.
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> magn3ts: its still interesting reading
[21:24] <savid> I used to be able to right click on a file,  select "open with",  and then "always use this application for this file type".   That option has disappeared, however.
[21:24] <pmsalves> hello. I have an issue with libopenal 32bit in a AMD64 machine running Ubuntu64. Could someone help me?

[21:34] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: what happens when you try to boot the CD?
[21:34] <guntbert> pmsalves: 1) what are you trying to install? 2) you are apparently on a 32bit system and trying to start a 64bit program
[21:34] <skpl> hi, can someone tell me how to get ubuntu to use thunar as the default fuile manager?

[21:35] <guntbert> pmsalves: ok, back to Q1: what are you trying to install?
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> Guest67184: the factoid is there because people ask about broadcoms every day, so the link means we don't have to repeat ourselves over and over. The guide walks you from start to finish

[21:35] <pmsalves> guntbert: X-plane flightsimulator
[21:35] <Guest67184> its not so simple for me
[21:35] <starcomputers> can any one help me please
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> pmsalves: then I suggest you try and find a 64bit version, or you will need to get all the libs it needs and put them in /usr/lib32
[21:36] <rambo298> starcomputers, you're trying to burn a read only dvd? is that what you said?
[21:36] <starcomputers> yes i am with an iso program

[21:36] <pmsalves> guntbert: where I can find a repository with the libopenal?
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> Guest67184: you just install the packages then use the additional drivers app in dash#
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> Guest67184: it tells you in the link
[21:36] <Guest67184> additianal driver app did not work
[21:37] <guntbert> pmsalves: not sure if that applies, but have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1874376

[21:39] <rambo298> starcomputers, i don't understand; seriously you aren't using a writable dvd and you're trying to burn it with an iso? i mean brasaro will burn it but i doubt it'll do it to a read only dvd

[21:39] <starcomputers> is there a program that will with ubuntu
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: what GPU does your system use?

[21:41] <savid> I'm having a strange issue where Libre office doesn't come up in Alt+Tab, nor does it register in the unity dock.  Anyone experience this before?
[21:41] <smackmanic1> (I'm googling now)
[21:41] <MonkeyDust> starcomputers  it is not possible to burn a read only cd, hence 'read only'

[21:42] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: what does that stand for?
[21:42] <Guest67184> yes b43 -fwcutter package its installed how do i use it
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> starcomputers: are you using the DVD ISO?
[21:42] <MonkeyDust> starcomputers  you're not using the right type of cd or dvd
[21:42] <savid> ActionParsnip, I'm on Oneiric

[21:43] <starcomputers> its a blank dvd-r
[21:43] <Monotoko> you should be able to write to it if it's blank... what's the problem?
[21:43] <ActionParsnip> Guest67184: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer   then ni the additional drivers app the b43 driver can be enabled

[21:44] <Dosmorpheus> i tryed to send it all but the bots didn't like it
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: once more, what video card do you use?
[21:44] <Monotoko> starcomputers, try the CD+RW
[21:44] <Monotoko> it might be a faulty DVD
[21:44] <MonkeyDust> Dosmorpheus  better use this site http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[21:44] <Monotoko> wouldn't be the first time
[21:44] <Guest67184> unable to locate package
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: i only need the video card. pasting and spamming the channel scrolls the channel and makes it completely unusable
[21:44] <starcomputers> it has stuff on it and wont let me erase it
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: imagine if 3 users pasted at the same time, the same amount
[21:45] <Dosmorpheus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/876648/
[21:45] <starcomputers> how can i erase it the people added stuff and made the cd+rw read only
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: the channel would scroll so fast, the output would get mangled together and it would help nobody
[21:45] <rambo298> Guest67184, so wireless doesn't work? on which ubuntu distro? 11.10?
[21:45] <Monotoko> starcomputers, what OS are you using at the moment?
[21:45] <starcomputers> i have 10 dvd's they all say the same thing
[21:45] <Guest67184> yes 11.10
[21:45] <starcomputers> linux zorin5
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: again, thts your cpu. we don't care about that. we need to know what video chip you use.
[21:46] <starcomputers> ubuntu zorin5
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> Guest67184: is the system connected to the web?

I control c'd after it pinged google probably over 20 times
[21:46] <rambo298> Guest67184, so you've verified it's broadcom like 4311? and you haven't locked wifi with Fn/F2?

[21:47] <ActionParsnip> starcomputers: zorin isn't supported here
[21:47] <starcomputers> its ubuntu isnt it

[21:48] <rambo298> Dosmorpheus, i just went through this with a fresh 11.10 install on an older dell insprion; nomodeset has to be used or the screen will go blank when x starts, even if you disable splash
[21:48] <Guest67184> im useing a netgear stick instead
[21:49] <guntbert> smackmanic1: before you try to paste anything into the channel: please use a !pastebin  -  did the ping really start each time (with an IP address mentioned)? then it would not be a DNS problem...
[21:49] <Guest67184> im trying to get the software for it
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> starcomputers: #ZorinOS

[21:49] <sound> could anyone help me maybe in private to get sound to work and mount android phone in ubuntu 11.10
[21:52] <guntbert> smackmanic1: you can install links2 - its a web browser for the command line - so you can try with another browser, the you can try the command    dig <your.desired.server>  - should return a proper IP address
[21:53] <smackmanic1> guntbert, tried with both firefox and chrome, but one sec

[21:57] <itaylor57> !java | komradefox
[21:57] <guntbert> smackmanic1: with dig?  only if there is "No error", then DNS is working and there must be another reason
[21:58] <smackmanic1> guntbert, okay... then not DNS heh
[21:58] <crfripper> I look in ubuntu software center, is the icedtea java plugin what I need?

[21:59] <suj> need help in instaling ubuntu?

[21:59] <suj> somebody?
[22:00] <theadmin> suj: Details?
[22:00] <urgodfather> theadmin: johnjacobjinger was saying that there is a dell driver for redhat and suse
[22:00] <suj> theadmin:not able to download the file
[22:00] <theadmin> suj: You mean the ISO? Which one? How are you downloading?
[22:01] <theadmin> urgodfather: Well, you can't use that?
[22:01] <theadmin> urgodfather: Err, no question mark.
[22:01] <smackmanic1> guntbert, nope on google, nope on reddit, nope on ubuntuforums
[22:01] <smackmanic1> just the first 3 I tried
[22:01] <smackmanic1> network unreachable
[22:01] <urgodfather> theadmin: i didnt think so... the suse techincally would work wouldnt it... b/c its deb based
[22:02] <DoYouKnow> how do I prevent linux from locking up while under load?
[22:02] <theadmin> urgodfather: Uh no? Suse is RPM
[22:02] <guntbert> smackmanic1: are you using a proxy?
[22:02] <DoYouKnow> well, wait, I realize I'm running a Virtual Machine again
[22:02] <DoYouKnow> it must be a vmware bug?
[22:02] <smackmanic1> guntbert, not that I'm aware of... connecting normally as always
[22:02] <DoYouKnow> err
[22:02] <DoYouKnow> I meant virtualbox

[22:03] <urgodfather> theadmin: 1rr0hb1 is the service tag support.dell.com
[22:03] <theadmin> urgodfather: Well, I can't help you further, sorry, I'm too tired to even think properly
[22:03] <nathanielonfire> I'm wondering about which brand of computer has the most luck with Ubuntu-compatible hardware.
[22:04] <smackmanic1> guntbert, if it makes any difference, firefox detects my IP the same as it is on irc, and it looks right to me based on previous IPs
[22:04] <fromage> hi all. Is there any player on ubuntu which is capable of showing 2 sets of subtitles simultaneously ?

[22:04] <urgodfather> theadmin: i understand, how bout giving me the lspci command for vga and ill go search for more info

[22:05] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | nathanielonfire
[22:06] <nathanielonfire> ActionParsnip: Okay, good to know. So most Dell hardware would work without having to fiddle with drivers or settings?
[22:06] <nathanielonfire> ActionParsnip: Thank you!
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> nathanielonfire: some you will, some you wont
[22:06] <fromage> Is there any player on ubuntu which is capable of showing 2 sets of subtitles simultaneously ?
[22:07] <guntbert> smackmanic1: time to provide some detailed info: pastebin 1) /etc/network/interfaces  /etc/resolv.conf , the output of 2) ip ad,   ip r    3) ping -c3  gserv.sytes.net

[22:07] <zelrik> hi there
[22:07] <Praxi> nathanielonfire, just switched a few days ago, still struggling with little things.  What do you need to do for your switch to be considered a success?
[22:07] <smackmanic1> well, maybe more than one sec. pastebin isn't coming up
[22:07] <zelrik> is there a way to check why my computer rebooted for no apparent reason?
[22:08] <nathanielonfire> Praxi: Well, I need to make sure that all of my files will work on Ubuntu. I currently use a Mac with a lot of Word documents, as well as Pages documents, SimpleText documents (from waaay back) and others. Do I have to do a lot of converting to get them to read in Ubuntu?
[22:08] <rambo298> nathanielonfire, openoffice/libre reads many formats
[22:09] <Praxi> mac versions of office are already a little odd, so shouldn't be a problem to bring those straight across into libreoffice nathanielonfire
[22:09] <titan> hello world!
[22:09] <nathanielonfire> Praxi: okay, thank you!
[22:09] <suj> any experts with ubuntu?
[22:09] <suj> pls?
[22:09] <rambo298> !details | suj
[22:10] <zelrik> is there a way to check why my computer rebooted for no apparent reason?
[22:10] <titan> anyone can help me with turn/save a movie from landscape to picture?
[22:10] <MonkeyDust> suj  you can use a live cd and delete the ubuntu partition
[22:10] <suj> monkeydust:
[22:10] <suj> i aint getting a opton?
[22:10] <nathanielonfire> My other question is where can I find information on visual accessibility for Ubuntu?
[22:10] <Praxi> nathanielonfire, not sure about pages, is that like MS publisher?
[22:10] <suj> opton
[22:10] <MonkeyDust> suj  what?
[22:11] <suj> there is no option to uninstal in that
[22:11] <nathanielonfire> Praxi: Pages is Apple's word processor…it's pretty easy to convert to Word files, though, but they don't always look right.
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> nathanielonfire: search dash for access
[22:11] <Submariner> not really Ubuntu related... How can i register my nickname?
[22:11] <GASSYPOOTS> gah mu grandma is making me get rid of linux!!!! anyone got any reasons why its better than windows 7????????
[22:11] <ikonia> Submariner: #freenode channel can help you
[22:11] <guntbert> !register | Submariner
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> suj: what is your issue?
[22:11] <aboudreault> hey... just install ubuntu oneiric with a brand new PC... My resolution in Display can only see 1024x768. I use the motherboard intel VGA
[22:12] <MonkeyDust> suj  correct, you delete the partition, so you can use it for something else
[22:12] <nathanielonfire> ActionParsnip: Thanks!
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: that's offtopic here]
[22:12] <rambo298> !video | aboudreault
[22:12] <GASSYPOOTS> hey it has to do with ubuntus
[22:12] <suj> how do i del it?
[22:12] <titan> guys any movie editor to turn m/save movie 90 degrees?
[22:12] <Praxi> suj, whatever your replacing it with will handle that on its own I assume?
[22:12] <MonkeyDust> suj  use a live cd and gparted
[22:12] <suj> actionparsnip:prob with ubuntu emoval
[22:12] <smackmanic1> guntbert, http://pastebin.com/URLA3a4n take your time, no rush, I'll brb

[22:13] <aboudreault> rambo298, ??
[22:13] <skpl> does anyone know how to change the default file manager to thunar in ubuntu?
[22:13] <rambo298> aboudreault, didn't tell you anything?
[22:13] <urgodfather> ActionParsnip: VGA compatible controller: XGI Technology Inc. (eXtreme Graphics Innovation) Z7/Z9 (XG20 core)
[22:14] <suj> the prob is that i cant see one of my harddisk on MY COMPUTER
[22:14] <aboudreault> rambo298, It's not a multimedia issue I have .
[22:14] <guntbert> smackmanic1: well one thing comes to mind: you have your local router/access point configured as name server (like most do) - if that is in a bad mood ... :-)
[22:14] <MonkeyDust> suj  in a terminal, type sudo fdisk -l
[22:14] <suj> monkeydust:how to gpart?
[22:14] <titan> k! I'm outta here.all best world!
[22:15] <chown_> guys, i have to do this every time i login/rr my ubuntu [echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switc]
[22:15] <chown_> is tehre a way to automate this?
[22:15] <MonkeyDust> suj  start here http://gparted.sourceforge.net/
[22:15] <rambo298> aboudreault, try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37411/screen-resolution-stuck-at-1024x768

[22:15] <smackmanic1> guntbert, hm
[22:15] <aboudreault> rambo298, thanks
[22:16] <chown_> i did made a script but it ask for sudo password everytime, could i do a script to automate this process? [echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switc]
[22:16] <smackmanic1> guntbert, so is that..hmm, ISP problem? my problem?
[22:16] <suj> monkeydust:that site will help right?
[22:16] <MonkeyDust> suj  read and learn :)
[22:16] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: it what that like said to do but it still gave me the same error  so i copied it down http://paste.ubuntu.com/876678/
[22:16] <suj> ok monkeydust
[22:16] <suj> thanx alot
[22:16] <suj> :)
[22:17] <linuxdude2> hey
[22:17] <suj> and monkeydust: im not able to download the new ubuntu file from the net
[22:17] <suj> HELP?
[22:17] <linuxdude2> anyone tried the 12.04 beta??
[22:17] <jon23d> I am trying to get sun java 1.6 jdk installed on ubuntu 10.04 -- I added this to my sources: "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner", and ran apt-get update, but when I try to install, I am told there is no isntallation candidate
[22:18] <Bodsda> linuxdude2: running it now
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: did you use a CD or USB?
[22:18] <guntbert> smackmanic1: although the ping to my server runs nearly  fine  (as 140 ms are a bit long that might point to your router/modem or your ISP)
[22:18] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: cd
[22:18] <linuxdude2> @Bodsda cool
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: did you burn it as slowly as possible?
[22:18] <linuxdude2> how fast r your guy's internet speeds??
[22:18] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: no should i
[22:18] <JoshDreamland> Where can I get libwxbase<IP_ADDRESS>?
[22:18] <linuxdude2> burn cds at 4x
[22:19] <Bodsda> linuxdude2: could you take the chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[22:19] <linuxdude2> sorry Bodsda
[22:19] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: i did it at 8x
[22:19] <linuxdude2> burn it again at 4x
[22:19] <smackmanic1> guntbert, alright. never experienced it before, wasn't sure what was going on
[22:19] <linuxdude2> always burn images at 4x
[22:19] <smackmanic1> guntbert, thanks
[22:19] <linuxdude2> i burn everything at 4x, always.
[22:20] <MonkeyDust> suj  boot the live cd, you'll find gparted installed on it
[22:20] <guntbert> smackmanic1: you're welcome :-) I wish you good luck - sometimes a reboot of the router/access point helps...
[22:20] <Praxi> I am trying to mount a windows share on my ubuntu box.  I am running centrify, so my ubuntu user is automatically authenticated against the AD. Using my file explorer I can get to the shares np.  What I can't seem to figure out how to do is to make a 'shortcut' or 'bookmark' to the share.   This page looks very complicated for something I can just browse to using Thunar.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPe
[22:20] <Praxi> rmanently
[22:20] <smackmanic1> :) will try guntbert. if not, hopefully it won't act crazy for much longer
[22:20] <smackmanic1> thanks again
[22:21] <linuxdude2> I would recommend to download the latest gparted live image, and put it on a dedicated USB
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> Praxi: when you are in the root of the share in nautilus, click the bookmarks menu and add it as a bookmark
[22:21] <nathanielonfire> Is there good writing software for Linux/Ubuntu besides LibreOffice? I'm looking for something that is similar to Scrivener on the Mac if anyone has heard of that?
[22:21] <linuxdude2> @Praxi  Tried Samba??
[22:21] <linuxdude2> @nathanielonfire  OpenOffice
[22:22] <ActionParsnip> nathanielonfire: abiword
[22:22] <linuxdude2> I personally would use OpenOffice
[22:22] <min|dvir|us> Hi. I can't get my dual-monitor setup working. Any thoughts?
[22:22] <rambo298> Libre is Open Office, but they branched off
[22:22] <linuxdude2> irc is awesome
[22:22] <linuxdude2> yah
[22:22] <Praxi> I have samba, I just find that for all the advantages of linux I can't just do some easy command like start/run \\servername\sharename to get to a network share.
[22:22] <linuxdude2> i know'
[22:23] <linuxdude2> follow the instructions on the Ubuntu Wiki
[22:23] <linuxdude2> worked for me
[22:23] <Bodsda> Praxi: If the share is already mounted, then you should be able to do something like that command. It is no different in windows. You have to mount the share before accessing it
[22:23] <guntbert> !enter | linuxdude2
[22:23] <dicannamas> i have a message in my update manager : recomended update x.org x server -via display driver (xserver-xorg-video-openvhrome) how do i do that? how i do the update? i dont know where to go to do it
[22:23] <linuxdude2> !enter
[22:23] <linuxdude2> sorry guys
[22:24] <Praxi> ActionParsnip, I'm using Thunar as a file explorer, it doesn't seem to have those menu options, if I set that in Nautilus will it show up in Thunar?
[22:24] <linuxdude2> Nautilus is awesome.
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> nathanielonfire: or googledocs or there is another app too in the repos which uses online stuff
[22:24] <Praxi> bodsda, in windows I don't have to mount the share just run that command and it opens it?
[22:24] <linuxdude2> don't use anything else.
[22:24] <amazingrando> hi.  i am having a problem doing an install from 11.04 alternate (x64)
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> Praxi: I believe so
[22:24] <Praxi> thunar had a context menu for open terminal here, only reason I'm using it :)
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> !find zoho
[22:25] <Bodsda> Praxi: not strictly true, the share will be auto mounted by something you configured (or ticked)
[22:25] <amazingrando> it fails at select and install software
[22:25] <linuxdude2> @amazingrando use 11.10 now
[22:25] <nathanielonfire> Hmm, I'll take a look! Thanks!
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> !info webservice-office-zoho | nathanielonfire
[22:25] <linuxdude2> OpenOffice
[22:25] <amazingrando> the software i'm using works better on 11.04
[22:25] <Praxi> bodsda? no
[22:25] <jellowiggler> ok, i'm going crazy in the 12.04 beta.  how do i get an application menu?
[22:25] <linuxdude2> how?
[22:25] <MonkeyDust> jellowiggler  #ubuntu+1
[22:25] <linuxdude2> @amazingrando what application???
[22:25] <amazingrando> amd app sdk
[22:26] <Praxi> I can take a brand new xp box, first time on network do \\servername\sharename and open it without any additional configuration
[22:26] <amazingrando> has problems with multiple gpus under 11.10
[22:26] <Praxi> not seeing what I had to configure extra there?
[22:26] <linuxdude2> i'm on 11.04 right now, just because i'm too lazy to update to 11.10, waiting for 12.04..........
[22:26] <Bodsda> Praxi: my bad, i'm thinking of mapped drives with unc paths.
[22:26] <Praxi> AHHH ok that makes sense :)
[22:27] <linuxdude2> anyone else hate unity??  Or love it???  I'm using Gnome 2 now
[22:27] <amazingrando> it seems like people have fixed my installation problem by changing the sources.list to get from mirrors rather than the cdrom.
[22:27] <linuxdude2> with Docky
[22:27] <linuxdude2> love Docky
[22:27] <amazingrando> but during install it looks like the network isn't up
[22:27] <CyberDawg> Does anyone know about a password bug in the new beta?
[22:27] <amazingrando> anyone have an idea of how to do it?
[22:27] <Praxi> struggling enough to understand how everything works, so was trying to figure out what I was missing with what your saying Bodsda :)
[22:27] <nathanielonfire> How often are software updates distributed? I noticed that LibreOffice is at 3.5 on their website, but not on Ubuntu when I tried running the update manager.
[22:27] <guntbert> linuxdude2: please keep your comments to ubuntu *support*
[22:27] <Praxi> using Docky with Unity
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> CyberDawg: #ubuntu+1 for anything Precise based
[22:27] <linuxdude2> cool
[22:27] <linuxdude2> ok
[22:27] <CyberDawg> thanx ActionParsnip
[22:27] <linuxdude2> i'm new to IRC
[22:28] <min|dvir|us> I can't get my dual-monitor setup working. Any thoughts?
[22:28] <linuxdude2> what OS?
[22:28] <linuxdude2> 11.10??
[22:28] <Praxi> min|dvir|us, what video card
[22:28] <Bodsda> Praxi: yeah, sorry, long day :)
[22:28] <Praxi> min|dvir|us, just got mine working, had to go into nvidia control panel and enable twin view :)
[22:28] <lilVaratep> Is there a way to access my w7 files from ubuntu?
[22:28] <min|dvir|us> Praxi: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/563537/
[22:29] <linuxdude2> try installing the Nvidia recommended video driver
[22:29] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  with Nautilus, you can
[22:29] <linuxdude2> then go into the nvidia control panel and play with it.
[22:29] <Praxi> ahh intel integrated min|dvir|us?
[22:29] <Bodsda> min|dvir|us: run   sudo nvidia-settings   and configure it in there
[22:29] <linuxdude2> intel gpu's suck, no offense
[22:29] <linuxdude2> I only use nvidia
[22:29] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: Okay im in Nautilius
[22:30] <Bodsda> linuxdude2: seriously, please keep the offtopic chat out of this channel
[22:30] <linuxdude2> i'm helping min|dvir|us
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> linuxdude2: they are fine if you don't want gaming
[22:30] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  on the left, do you see the folders and disks?
[22:30] <linuxdude2> i game though
[22:30] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: yes just folders under Computer
[22:30] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: and system reserved
[22:30] <amazingrando> is there another way to see if my network is up other than ifconfig - i get an error "limited output"
[22:30] <linuxdude2> nvidia also has best support with linux
[22:30] <min|dvir|us> linuxdude2: you don't know what you're talking about. :)
[22:31] <linuxdude2> about what??
[22:31] <linuxdude2> tell me
[22:31] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  no Devices?
[22:31] <Praxi> so in application finder, I'm not seeing nautilus. Software center says its installed, can I use it in Unity?
[22:31] <goldins> min|dvir|us: are you for serious?
[22:31] <dicannamas> i am trying to upgrade  the system and i get a message saying the a package is been kept but at the same time when i use the update manager i get the recomendation to upgrade it from the driver display but i dont know how
[22:31] <min|dvir|us> linuxdude2: nVidia's drivers are closed-source; Intel's are open-source.
[22:31] <linuxdude2> min|dvir|us  how long have you been using linux??
[22:31] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: no devices, just Computer and Network
[22:31] <lilVaratep> I'm in wubi, btw
[22:31] <linuxdude2> nvidia still has drivers
[22:31] <goldins> min|dvir|us: And yet nvidia's drivers actually work, unlike any other drivers, including the open source AMD drivers.
[22:32] <linuxdude2> i'll check, trb
[22:32] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  what's in Computer?
[22:32] <linuxdude2> goldins thank you for stating my point
[22:32] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: Home, Desktop, System Reserved, usb, file system, trash
[22:32] <goldins> and AMD has been releasing everything the open source team has been asking for for years, and the drivers SUCK. Terribly.
[22:32] <rambo298> linuxdude2, ubuntu/mint upgrades are a huge pita with nvidia; every time i do it i have to pull a driver install from them, and fight x problems
[22:32] <linuxdude2> when it comes to nvidia gpu's "closed-source" is sometimes better
[22:32] <goldins> and intel has yet to make a GPU that is useful for anything but office work
[22:33] <min|dvir|us> You guys are obviously pros.
[22:33] <min|dvir|us> No place for me here.
[22:33] <linuxdude2> yah
[22:33]  * min|dvir|us scoffs.
[22:33] <MonkeyDust> !info ntfs-3g | lilVaratep
[22:33] <Praxi> I do have to agree with rambo298, being mainly a linux curious person, every time I try it, I end up having to screw with Nvidia drivers ALOT
[22:33] <rambo298> well since almost everyone uses their computer for office work, why would intel want to compete with nvidia?
[22:33] <linuxdude2> System > Admin > Additional Drivers
[22:33] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: should i be in sudo nautilus or reg nautilus
[22:33] <linuxdude2> Intel is a processor company
[22:33] <linuxdude2> Not a good gpu company
[22:34] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  try installing ntfs-3g it's in the repos
[22:34] <rambo298> video chips are processors; they have embedded riscs and they are accessible to users (sometimes)
[22:34] <lilVaratep> i already have ntfs-3g latest version MonkeyDust
[22:34] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  hmmmm, strange
[22:34] <min|dvir|us> I'm trying to get my second monitor working. Any thoughts? It's not showing up in the Displays dialog. Here's my lspci: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/563537/
[22:34] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: what should i be seeing?
[22:35]  * fraterm is angered by his brother printer and the cups driver they provide.
[22:35] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  there's this program called mountmanager, in the repos
[22:37] <Guest88991> The app bar along the top in ver 12.04... can it be moved to bottom of screen?? if so I'm having a heck of a time figuring out how
[22:37] <waxstone> min|dvir|us, you could try editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually
[22:37] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  in a terminal, type sudo fdisk -l => do you see the win7 partition?
[22:37] <meerkats> in unity, how do I change the proxy settings for all the laptop?
[22:37] <min|dvir|us> waxstone: to what?
[22:37] <dougl> !unity
[22:37] <waxstone> 1 sec ill paste mine
[22:37] <linuxdude2> yah
[22:38] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: the lowist i can burn it at is 2x shoud i do that or 4x or 8(what i did last time)
[22:38] <min|dvir|us> waxstone: I'm not going to use your xorg.conf.
[22:38] <linuxdude2> 4x
[22:38] <min|dvir|us> Does anyone know a lot?
[22:38] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: yes i see it.
[22:38] <min|dvir|us> Specifically about X11 and multi-monitor setups?
[22:38] <waxstone> min|dvir|us, ok then
[22:38] <min|dvir|us> My second monitor is not showing up in the Displays dialog. Here's my lspci: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/563537/
[22:38] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  are you familiar with manually mouning devices?
[22:38] <MonkeyDust> mounting*
[22:39] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: i just tried mounting it in /mnt and it says: mount is denied because the ntfs volume is alrady exclusively opened
[22:39] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: you saw that im in WUBI, right?
[22:39] <Spyro2> min|dvir|us, i have three screens , but not understand completelly how
[22:39] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  wubi :(
[22:39] <Spyro2> just bragging
[22:39] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  if you had said that from the start.... ;)
[22:39] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: i did!!
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: could try SD card / USB as wel, no moving parts
[22:40] <linuxdude2> flash mem though
[22:40] <MonkeyDust> wubi is the worst invention since the wheel
[22:40] <lilVaratep> MonkeyDust: so i cant view it from here?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> MonkeyDust: its ok as a try before you buy, as a long term its pretty poor
[22:40] <oconnore> how do i install ubuntu directly onto a hard drive from within another ubuntu install?
[22:41] <oconnore> i am getting caught up with grub issues
[22:41] <oconnore> it keeps searching for the wrong uuid, and I don't know how to trick it
[22:41] <linuxdude2> clone HDD
[22:41] <lilVaratep> I'm thinking of uninstalling w7 and making either Arch, or Ubuntu my main.
[22:41] <Dosmorpheus> ActionParsnip: can't find my usb and dont have a sd card
[22:41] <Spyro2> oconnore, i think ubiquity
[22:42] <oconnore> Spyro2: thanks
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> Dosmorpheus: gah
[22:43] <hellknight> I was here few days back regarding installation of Ubuntu on my Dad's Dell laptop. Well, I installed it. And it was perfect. Everything was working fine.
[22:44] <linuxdude2> that's what Linux is for
[22:44] <hellknight> yeah I know.. I've been using it since 2006..
[22:44] <hellknight> But never installed it on a laptop.
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: I've had more success with dell than other brands
[22:44] <helpanoob> I keep running in to a iso to big error on remastersys is there another way to back up my system as is?
[22:44] <JeffJassky> Hey, guys. It seems like my swap is disabled - no idea why... I'm kind of new to linux. I was hoping for someone to point me in the right direction
[22:44] <Praxi> doh, so adding bookmark to nautilus didn't add it to thunar
[22:45] <meerkats> how do I configure proxy settings?
[22:45] <hellknight> I haven't had the time to check the battery status because I love somewhere else. But I'll update you guys this weekend when I'll go home.
[22:45] <Praxi> the only reason I'm using Thunar is because of the right click context menu entry for open terminal here, is there any way for me to add that to nautilus?
[22:45] <JeffJassky> Actually I just ran.. sudo swapon a
[22:45] <JeffJassky> swapon: a: stat failed: No such file or directory
[22:45] <slakcphil> JeffJasssky, maybe swapon can help you
[22:45] <CFHowlett> JeffJassky   see http://superuser.com/questions/22081/turn-on-swap-memory-on-ubuntu
[22:46] <slakcphil> JeffJassky, oh sorry
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> Praxi: yes there's a package I believe, or at the very least a nautuilus script
[22:46] <slakcphil> didn't scroll
[22:46] <hellknight> The Hindi fonts look beautiful on it. Can I change the entire menu system etc to Hindi?

[22:47] <lilVaratep> im gonna install ubuntu (officially). should I choose the option "install alongside windows" or make my own partitions? note; i already have WUBI installed
[22:47] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   install alongside - you can kill wubi later ...
[22:48] <hellknight> The only problem is that my dad is getting slow copying speed to his external NTFS HDD.
[22:48] <JeffJassky> here's what happened with swapon: http://paste.ubuntu.com/876724/
[22:48] <lilVaratep> install alongside is basically the same thing, correct? will it be a full installation?(and not wubi-like)
[22:48] <hellknight> lilvartep, yes it wil be full
[22:48] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   it will be a regulare installation
[22:49] <GASSYPOOTS> how do i put things on the desktop?
[22:49] <lilVaratep> will it let me choose partition to install to? because I made a 50gb partition on the side i wanna use for this ubuntu
[22:49] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   choose manual partitioning options ...
[22:49] <GASSYPOOTS> tahts a little big
[22:49] <hellknight> how can I increase the copying speed of the USB 2.0 external HDD which my dad uses. It has NTFS filesystem on it & he gets around 10-11 MB/s
[22:49] <hellyeah> hey
[22:49] <hellyeah> i am using ubuntu 11.04
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: same as you would normally
[22:49] <GASSYPOOTS> ?
[22:49] <hellyeah> but i want gnoem-panel back
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: what do you want on the desktop?
[22:50] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   note that a full ubuntu install requires only about 8 gigs if that much.  save some space for your /home
[22:50] <GASSYPOOTS> cant drag them they pop back to the bar
[22:50] <afellow> how can i save my setting in alsamixer?? ubuntu 11.10
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: log in to gnome classic desktop when you log in
[22:50] <GASSYPOOTS> i want WINE
[22:50] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: yeah but im planning on transitioning out of w7 =D
[22:50] <Submariner> how can i install a .deb file in ubuntu, it seems my Ubuntu Software center wont open :(
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> Submariner: sudo dpkg -i debfile
[22:50] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: slowly though. anyways i have abundant hd space.

[22:50] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, I think that message is for someone else ..:)
[22:50] <hellyeah> i want panel like that is it possible
[22:50] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   suggestion: keep your /home separate from the ubuntu / root partition
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: I suggest you open /usr/share/applications   and copy the files from there to desktop
[22:51] <hellknight> I enquired about slow copying speed to the NTFS external HDD..
[22:51] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: so i would have to manually make partitions? i hate that part =p
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: Natty still has old school desktop,just use the classic option when you log in....as I said...
[22:52] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   why?  default install puts your /home under the /   If you have to reinstall our /home data gets wiped.
[22:52] <hellknight> Actionparsnip, will that increase the copying speed?
[22:52] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: do i need to create a /var and a swap partition as well?
[22:52] <hellknight> Actionparsnip, I think that that message is meant for hellyeah
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: I doubt it very much
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: ahhhh
[22:53] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   set a swap size - I go with 2X my ram so 8 Gigabytes ...
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: yeah you are right..
[22:53] <MonkeyDust> lilVaratep  you have better control over your data, if you keep /home separate
[22:53] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: how bout a /var folder like arch forces me to make?
[22:53] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, I'm happy with Unity.. looks good.. the fonts are nice..
[22:53] <lilVaratep> i mean /var partition
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: does the system have a make and model?
[22:53] <Submariner> sudo dpkg says file is loked by another process
[22:54] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   the only folders I manuall create are /home /swap and /  - I let ubuntu default the rest
[22:54] <Monotoko> lilVaratep, you only need /home and / usually... unless you have a server
[22:54] <hellknight> lilvaratep: I think that 4 GB swao should be enough
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> Submariner: is software centre open, or synaptic, or are you installing updates etc?
[22:54] <lilVaratep> i have 4gigs ram so ill probably use 8gigs swap
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> lilVaratep: you can have just one partition if you want
[22:54] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, Hmm.. It's a Dell Inspiron 14 R, Intel Core i3 2310M, 320 GB HDD @ 5400 RPM, 4 GB RAM & 1366x768 resolution
[22:54] <GASSYPOOTS> my grandma hate ubuntu >.<
[22:55] <Submariner> ActionParsnip: it seems software center isnt opening, is a software from a project
[22:55] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, The external HDD is of Seagate GoFlex 500 GB USB 2.0
[22:55] <lilVaratep> how big should /home and / be? im using 8gigs for swap out of 50 gigs
[22:55] <hellknight> lilVaratep, you don't need that much swap. 4 GB is enough. & /home depends upon your total data..
[22:55] <lilVaratep> well, i have 50gigs total
[22:56] <lilVaratep> i mean free space
[22:56] <Monotoko> lilVaratep, if you have 50gigs total... less swap, I'd even go for 2GB if you have 4GB RAM
[22:56] <hellknight> 10 GB to /, 4 GB to Swap & the rest to /home
[22:56] <Monotoko> as for /... you probably won't need more than 15GB depending on what you install
[22:56] <Submariner> ok. maybe was permission
[22:56] <Zaitzev> hey guys, I just installed deluge-webui, but it doesn't show the contents of "my" deluge-client? How do I change that?
[22:56] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep  save some for windows
[22:56] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: my windows already has 180gigs
[22:56] <KI7MT> lilVaratep, 8gb for swap is way over kill, I have 4GB of ram and 1Gb swap and have never seen the swap monitor show any usage.
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: do you have the latest BIOS?
[22:57] <hellknight> Zaitzev, did you change the settings in the Deluge client as well? I mean did you enabled it in the app?
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: is the USB set to legacy mode?
[22:57] <Zaitzev> yeah
[22:57] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, yeah.. everything is updated..
[22:57] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, actually, the USB is giving full speed in Windows..
[22:57] <Submariner> nope, still dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: try the different usb mode in bios
[22:58] <hellknight> ActionParsnip : This might be an issue with the NTFS-3g package
[22:58] <hellknight> ActionParsnip: Yeah I'll toggle around
[22:59] <hellknight> Zaitsev, it works fine for me under Transmission
[22:59] <hellknight> Zaitzev, works fine for me under transmission
[22:59] <Zaitzev> I'm not sure how I should config it?
[22:59] <GASSYPOOTS> any way to put a windows 7 look alike background on?
[22:59] <CFHowlett> GASSYPOOTS   sure.  you dual boot?
[22:59] <GASSYPOOTS> ya
[23:00] <GASSYPOOTS> but how do i switch boots
[23:00] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: sure, you can use the same wallpaper in Ubuntu
[23:00] <hellknight> Zaitzev, open Transmission/Deluge.. go to the web tabs & select 'Enable Web Client'
[23:00] <Zaitzev> hellknight: I mean, I do localhost:customport and it connects, but there aren't anything listed (no torrents or anything)
[23:00] <CFHowlett> GASSYPOOTS   wait 1 - it'll be worth it
[23:00] <lilVaratep> what do i choose for device for boot loader installation? my root folder ?
[23:00] <hellknight> Zaitzev, same port on both the applications?
[23:00] <lilVaratep> or the /dev/sda, or my windows 7(loader) ?
[23:00] <hellknight> lilVaratep, on /dev/sda
[23:00] <hellknight> lilVaratep, then it will detect Windows installation
[23:01] <GASSYPOOTS> my grandma wants her windows slowx7 back but i want ubuntu !!!!!
[23:01] <Zaitzev> yes
[23:01] <Xeneth> There a shortcut to disable sleep function?
[23:01] <hellknight> Zaitzev, this thing works here pefectly on Transmission.
[23:01] <GASSYPOOTS> how do i keep them both but switch im already dual booted
[23:01] <CFHowlett> GASSYPOOTS   windows 7 images are at /Users/user/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/Themes/
[23:01] <CFHowlett> on the windows hdd
[23:01] <GASSYPOOTS> can you use terminal to switch
[23:01] <hellknight> Zaitsev, do it like <IP_ADDRESS>:9091
[23:01] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: could run Ubuntu in a virtualbox
[23:01] <hellknight> Zaitzev, try it with your IP add
[23:02] <GASSYPOOTS> not realy
[23:02] <Zaitzev> here we go..
[23:02] <lilVaratep> sshould i encrypt my home folder?
[23:02] <Zaitzev> it works now :)
[23:02] <arinov_> чуваки
[23:02] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   depends on your paranoia level
[23:02] <lilVaratep> CFHowlett: so yes... lol
[23:02] <CFHowlett> !ru|arinov_
[23:02] <arinov_> oh sorry
[23:02] <ikonia> lilVaratep: think this through - do you really need to encypt your disk ?
[23:02] <arinov_> i thought i am on ..-ru
[23:02] <ikonia> lilVaratep: %90 of people don't, permissions would be enough
[23:03] <ikonia> the headache of managing encypted devices on home user systems is such a waste unless you really need it
[23:03] <lilVaratep> crap too late i encrypted and clicked install
[23:03] <lilVaratep> how to abort install? LOL
[23:03] <lilVaratep> its still retrieving!
[23:03] <arinov_> i have an cp1251 cyrillic named files in zip archive and file roller show it replaced by ? symbos
[23:03] <ikonia> putting the encyption button on the installer is asking for trouble
[23:03] <arinov_> how to fix it?
[23:03] <ikonia> lilVaratep: just re-install it
[23:03] <CFHowlett> GASSYPOOTS   windows 7 themes and images are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/876736/
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: +1
[23:04] <lilVaratep> if i encrypt my /home, and i decide to reinstall ubuntu later or update, will i be able to still access the encrypted /home?
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> lilVaratep: yes but its not as easy as unencrypted
[23:04] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   painfully, probably, maybe
[23:04] <ikonia> lilVaratep: with a lot of effort
[23:04] <ikonia> lilVaratep: hence why I'm saying for %90 of home users, they don't need it
[23:04] <hellknight> lilVaratep, very painfully :P
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> and especially with the target audience of Ubuntu too
[23:05] <ikonia> people want it as they think it's "cool" when the reality is some safe permissions are all that's needed at best for most people
[23:05] <lilVaratep> okay.. i just did a hard reset
[23:05] <GASSYPOOTS> OMG internet explorer is spyware/ system keylogger!!!!!!!!!11
[23:05] <lilVaratep> it was still retrieving files so i can just install again
[23:05] <lilVaratep> right?
[23:05] <ikonia> lilVaratep: sure
[23:05] <ikonia> GASSYPOOTS: please don't be silly
[23:05] <GASSYPOOTS> no realy
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: IE is offtopic here
[23:06] <ikonia> GASSYPOOTS: the channel is for ubuntu technical support, take your random nonsense elswhere please.
[23:06] <GASSYPOOTS> under windows partition look under
[23:06] <Bodsda> GASSYPOOTS: not the place. Please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> GASSYPOOTS: or ##windows
[23:06] <ikonia> I do'nt even want it in #ubuntu-offtopic please.
[23:06] <GASSYPOOTS> hp/windows/tracing
[23:06] <Bodsda> ##windows then
[23:06] <amazingrando> anyone familiar with the minimal net installation?
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: i've used it
[23:06] <ikonia> amazingrando: used it,
[23:07] <nopf> ikonia: in many saner jurisdictions you could not responsibly carry around a notebook without encryption carrying data concerning people like patients or even customers. it is nearly a must
[23:07] <amazingrando> networking is fine at the start of the install, but then it's down after it gets the first stuff from the repo
[23:07] <ikonia> nopf: depends on your business and the data you are carrying sure,
[23:07] <amazingrando> how can i bring it back up?
[23:07] <ikonia> amazingrando: shouldn't down it
[23:08] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: is it actually down?
[23:08] <amazingrando> yeah, the link lights are now off
[23:08] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: is it a wired connection?
[23:08] <amazingrando> yeah
[23:09] <lilVaratep> oh i just clicked re-install.... this is why i love ubuntu. SO EASY AND SIMPLE unlike arch or gentoo!
[23:09] <ikonia> lights off suggest the link is dead rather than the card is down
[23:09] <amazingrando> lights go off at the same time during install each time
[23:09] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   aaah.  another happy customer!  :)
[23:09] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: Ubuntu is onyl simpler than Gentoo because you don't know how to do things the Gentoo way :)
[23:10] <lilVaratep> Bodsda: hell no im not going back to that crazy thing. the network setup was maniacal. it would've taken a month to find out that it doesn't work...
[23:10] <CFHowlett> lilVaratep   what's REALLY cool is when you do an (re)installation & DON'T format your /home and get a new distro with all your data intact...
[23:10] <ssta> gentoo is okay if you have the time and interest...I think Ubuntu really is simpler to use though :)
[23:10] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: hehe :) gotta love Gentoo - it makes normal people go insane :)
[23:11] <lilVaratep> I'll probably get into gentoo/arch in the summer or something
[23:11] <lilVaratep> I'm sure that i'd be fine if the wireless was supported... but setting up the wireless myself just drove me nuts for both gentoo and arch
[23:12] <ActionParsnip> ssta: gentoo teaches you a lot too
[23:14] <lilVaratep> Anyone do multiple monitors with ubuntu?
[23:14] <Bodsda> yep
[23:14] <ssta> ActionParsnip: I was building LFS in 2000.  I've already learned all that stuff...gentoo is easier than that, but I don't have that kind of time any more
[23:14] <lilVaratep> How do the workspaces work?
[23:14] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: I have an extended monitor setup, so they work exactly the same, theres just more room left to right
[23:15] <ssta> if I could be bothered building everything from source, I'd go for BSD anyways
[23:15] <lilVaratep> Is there a way to take out the dash and go to something that looks like Arch's setup?
[23:15] <hellknight> ssta, but BSD has some problems.. lack of a package manager..
[23:15] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: fluxbox?
[23:15] <hellknight> ssta, Gentoo's emerge is better
[23:15] <lilVaratep> Bodsda: whats that
[23:16] <ssta> hellknight: ports is as good as emerge
[23:16] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: its a window manager - an alternative to Gnome/Unity/KDE/XFCE/Blackbox/IceWM/E7 etc etc.
[23:16] <ssta> it's all a matter of opinion anyway
[23:16] <lilVaratep> Oh would it be like DWM?
[23:16] <hellknight> ssta, moreover, FreeBSD is good but lacks KMS support so ATI card is like hell on it :)
[23:17] <ssta> hellknight: I never buy ATI cards...but that's a valid point
[23:17] <lilVaratep> I thought I was stuck with this dash look forever.  NVIDIA FTW
[23:17] <Bodsda> lilVaratep: technically, they are desktop environments
[23:17] <ActionParsnip> lilVaratep: none of those are WMs :)
[23:17] <hellknight> ssta, I've a quad boot in my system..   I have many VMs of various sorts which satisfies my need for variety
[23:18] <lilVaratep> ActionParsnip: how does a window manager take out the dash then?
[23:18] <Bodsda> Is there anyway to partition /home without unmounting it?
[23:19] <hellknight> ssta, you could use Arch Linux. It doesn't compiles from source but has BSD init system.
[23:19] <ActionParsnip> lilVaratep: because you are using Compiz as the WM in Unity, and I believe Metacity in Unity 2D
[23:19] <ssta> Bodsda: not safely, no, I don't believe so
[23:19] <pdq> Bodsda, i havent tried rat poison yet, is it tiling wm too?
[23:19] <Jezarith> is there a place that kernel trace/dumps are stored?
[23:19] <Bodsda> pdq: yeah, but very very minimal
[23:19] <Jezarith> or is it pretty much the console it dumps to?
[23:19] <ssta> hellknight: I've been using debian of one sort or another for over a decade...I'll stick with what I'm happy with...Currently Ubuntu is my Debian of choice :)
[23:20] <hellknight> ssta, Debian rocks bro.. one of the best distributions.
[23:20] <Bodsda> Anyone know if there is a safe way to unmount /home whilst logged in?
[23:20] <hellknight> ssta, they removed the binary blobs from the Debian 6 kernel so it failed to install on my system.. Actually it did install but no network :(
[23:21] <ssta> hellknight: well, Ubuntu is just Debian with a few tweaks and a better installer...
[23:21] <hellknight> ssta, yeah.. But they need to work on power management. Heard pretty bad things about it. Sucks the battery
[23:21] <ssta> hellknight: I wouldn't know about that...haven't had anhy problems with battery
[23:22] <hellknight> ssta, phoronix site was saying that. Will confirm once my dad returns with his laptop..
[23:22] <SegF4ult> XD
[23:23] <Jezarith> Does ubuntu write out a kernel panic trace to logs by default? machine already restarted at this point.
[23:24] <hellknight> I'm thinking about getting a Laser Printer for home. Loads of documents/reports/project work to print. Thinking about getting Canon LBP 3000 as it can be refilled.
[23:24] <hellknight> How's Canon with CUPS?
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: check the canon site. they do make some deb drivers
[23:25] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, the HP desktjet 2030 installed fine. Downloaded only 500 KB driver!!
[23:26] <Random832> how the F*** is it harder to set up NFS than SMB?
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: yeah hplip is in thedefault install :)
[23:27] <dr3mro> can any one help me with this issue of my USB modem (zte mf190) : I works ok and usb_modeswitch detects it but ubuntu detects it on ttyUSB2 and that for some reason causes the network manager to fail to connect and i have to unplug /replug it again and again until it is detected at ttyUSB0 then it will work .. is there a way to force it at ttyUSB0 ???
[23:27] <jwash> Random832 because of mounting the remote filesystem
[23:27] <Jason123> ugh everythings registerd lol
[23:27] <Random832> jwash: i don't even know if i've got the export set up right
[23:27] <amazingrando> is it possible to do a custom install (choose what to install or not) from the regular live CD iso?
[23:28] <Random832> i just uncommented the /srv/nfs4 in the exports file and made the directory
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> hellknight: http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/products/printers/Laser/Laser_Shot_LBP3000.aspx?type=download&page=1   yep, linux drivers ahoy
[23:28] <hellknight> ACtionParsnip, Nice.. then Canon it is. Selecting it because I can refill it's toner in India for Just Rs. 500 ($10)
[23:28] <WouterDS> Anyone who can help out a bit with iptables? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1937313
[23:28] <CFHowlett> amazingrando   pretty sure you need teh alternative install or DVD for that option ...
[23:28] <hellknight> ActionParsnip, genuine toner costs around $60 (Rs. 3000)
[23:29] <amazingrando> yeah, i'm having trouble with alternative or minimal because they won't work with my network adapter for some reason
[23:29] <JasonJay> ok hey guys im trying to fer windows 7 on virtual box but i cant get the virtual box to install the windows using my scandisk I have enabled it in the settings but im unsure im new to ubuntu and cant seem to figure it out any help is appreciated
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: wired or wireless?
[23:29] <amazingrando> wired
[23:30] <amazingrando> it sees the network at the beginning of install and autoconfig is successful
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> JasonJay: i'd ask in #vbox
[23:30] <JasonJay> oh didnt know they had a channel cool thanks
[23:30] <amazingrando> but after it downloads from the repo the base system, eth0 is shut down
[23:30] <amazingrando> not sure how to bring it back up
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: does the system have a make and model?
[23:31] <amazingrando> it's a msi 890fxa-gd70 motherboard
[23:31] <amazingrando> realtek nics
[23:31] <lilVaratep> Yay, i finally have a full install of ubuntu!
[23:31] <amazingrando> installing from the livecd works fine, but i'm trying to fit an install on a 4gb usb drive
[23:32] <pdq> congrats lilVaratep
[23:32] <tete_> hi, i would like to configure my apache with vhosts, and i did it... i think, but when i open the browser and browse the ip of the server, i get the same as would i browse the domain... thats not what i want. i want to get a blank page displayed when someone tries to open the url directly
[23:32] <ActionParsnip> amazingrando: try the boot option: acpi=off
[23:32] <amazingrando> ok, let me try that
[23:32] <amazingrando> thanks
[23:33] <ikonia> tete_: virtual hosts is name based and depends on the host headers in the http get request
[23:33] <Budget> I need to copy a file to root.  How would I do that?
[23:33] <CFHowlett> !root|budget
[23:33] <tete_> http://ideone.com/HJpPA
[23:33] <tete_> this is my config
[23:34] <tete_> ikonia, i know that and i hoped it would work when i call: http://$myip to get the default /var/www/index.html displayed instead of /var/www/blah.de/index.html
[23:34] <ActionParsnip> Budget: run:  gksudo nautilus   and you will be ok
[23:34] <ikonia> tete_: how is $myip a name
[23:34] <ikonia> tete_: it's NAME based
[23:35] <tete_> and how to configure apache to handle it that way i would like to have it?
[23:35] <ikonia> tete_: you can't it's NAME based
[23:35] <tete_> it must work as i have seen this before
[23:35] <ikonia> tete_: no, it will go to the default host unless you use a NAME
[23:35] <ikonia> tete_: or you use IP based hosting instead of name based
[23:35] <tete_> hm
[23:36] <tete_> i only have 1 ip
[23:36] <tete_> isnt there any "default" which should be used when no name is used (when a ip is entered) ?
[23:36] <tete_> i cant believe theres no way to do this
[23:36] <ikonia> tete_: no
[23:36] <Budget> That did it, thank you.

[23:48] <nagarjuna> hi i
[23:48] <CFHowlett> suj   you don't NEED torrent, you only need a torrent client.  In ubuntu = transmission
[23:49] <CFHowlett> nagarjuna   greetings
[23:49] <nagarjuna> hi i'm using skype on ubuntu. Some times it is hanging
[23:49] <pdq> tanath, firefox must be set to autostart? remove from autostart
[23:49] <tanath> how can i stop firefox from popping up every time i log in?
[23:49] <CFHowlett> nagarjuna   not unexpected ...
[23:49] <tanath> pdq, first thing i checked
[23:49] <frazzy> how do you check if you're using unity 2d or 3d?
[23:49] <igor__> its already updated
[23:49] <CFHowlett> tanath   preferences>startup applications
[23:49] <tanath> pdq, not in startup
[23:49] <lilVaratep> ActionParsnip:
[23:49] <lilVaratep> ActionParsnip: Hey! I found your picture!
[23:49] <tanath> CFHowlett, not in startup
[23:50] <gdea73> recently my desktop running 10.10 has been randomly hanging if I leave it to sit for a while on the lock screen
[23:50] <mlindsay> printers are the death of linux for me lol
[23:50] <gdea73> I think whenever it shuts off the monitor on the software side, it hangs
[23:50] <pdq> i don;t use unity maybe when you logged out you are choosing save session? or when logging in you are choosing old session instead of new
[23:50] <pdq> tanath^^
[23:50] <lilVaratep> Does anyone know how to make it so every time u run irssi in terminal, it auto connects and identifies?
[23:50] <suj> which torrent shud i select?
[23:50] <tanath> pdq, i don't use unity either. and session saving is not in the startup app anymore
[23:51] <tete_> ikonia, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html#default
[23:51] <CFHowlett> suj   depends on your machine specifications and what desktop environment you prefer...
[23:51] <tanath> pdq, but assuming it's a saved session, how do i fix it?
[23:51] <pdq> suj is want 11.10 desktop and have 64 bit chose ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64
[23:51] <mlindsay> anyone have any good recomendations for a driver to get a canon IR 7000 working under ubuntu?
[23:51] <pdq> if want*, damn new keyboard
[23:51] <tanath> pdq, and there's no option on log out
[23:52] <suj> i have a intel  centrino duo 32bit
[23:52] <CFHowlett> suj don't do 64 then...
[23:52] <pdq> suj take the 11.10 desktop i386 :)
[23:52] <itaylor57> lilVaratep, http://irssi.org/documentation/startup#c3
[23:52] <CFHowlett> suj how much ram?
[23:53] <suj> 2-5gb ram
[23:53] <suj> 2.5 gb
[23:53] <pdq> when logging in if use the default login manager click the cog wheel icon, perhaps is set to default to existing session? other than that i dunno
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> suj: you'll need PAE kernel. I have the same CPU in my lappy
[23:53] <pdq> grr tanath^^ :)
[23:53] <[[thufir]]> can mondoarchive write a directory to optical disc?  http://www.mondorescue.org/docs/mondoarchive.8.html  at the end it says:    mondoarchive -Oi -d /mnt/foo -E '/mnt/foo|/mnt/foo2' -p `hostname`-`date +%Y-%m-%d`  which makes me think "yes"
[23:53] <CFHowlett> suj   consider a light distro then; xubuntu or lubuntu
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> suj: oh, for 2.5Gb ram you'll be using 32bit and be ok
[23:54] <tanath> pdq, no, i use gnome classic session
[23:54] <pengw> hi all
[23:54] <igor__> got it working in gnome mplayer
[23:54] <CFHowlett> pengw   greetings
[23:54] <[[thufir]]> got it:  mondoarchive -Ow 4 -I ``/home|/etc''   :)
[23:54] <pengw> i got a problem which is very interesting
[23:54] <[[thufir]]> anyone used mondo?  I'm giving it a try for first time...
[23:54] <suj> actionparsnip:?didnt get you?
[23:54] <tanath> anyone have detailed knowledge of ubuntu autostarts?
[23:55] <tanath> or an app for viewing them?
[23:55] <pengw> when i insert my usb stick into my laptop ubuntu showed me that : DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending
[23:55] <suj> cfhhowlett:ok?whats the difference between those three?
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> suj: with 32bit cpu and 2.5Gb ram you will need the 32bit ISO. I have the same in my Dell Lat D420 and it runs a full Unity session just fine
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> pengw: did you MD5 test the ISO you put on the stick?
[23:56] <pengw> but I can bowser my file in my file manager the only problem is this error message.
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> pengw: oh its not ISO stuff :(, my bad
[23:56] <suj> actionparsnip:so i can use ubuntu?
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> suj: yes, it'll be fine
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> pengw: when you last unplugged the stick did you safely remove the device or just yank it out?
[23:56] <suj> cud u direct me to which file i shud download...there are lo of options..
[23:57] <tanath> 'cud u'? university for cows?
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> suj: http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso   MD5: c396dd0f97bd122691bdb92d7e68fde5
[23:57] <pengw> it seems that not only one manager try to handle this plugging event.
[23:58] <rambo298> lol
[23:58] <pengw> i have two file manager nau**** and pcman.
[23:58] <rambo298> why is nautilus ****?
[23:58] <pdq> pengw, nautilus is a dirty word? hehe
[23:58] <suj> actionparsnip:i have kept it for download
[23:58] <suj> hope it downloads this time..:(
[23:59] <igor__> now the video and audio is not in sync
[23:59] <pengw> cuz nautilus is hard to spell.
