[05:13] <server_> aptcachebug, ok, the problem is that I have 2 network cards on my pc. Im planning to setup an internet cafe where the main computer (server) has linux and the rest windows. One of the network cards is used to connect the computer to the lan and the other card is for the printer
[05:13] <aptcachebug> server_: for the name of your computer, you can use lshw in terminal
[05:13] <moymoy> if i have more than one interface and two different gateways associated with those interfaces, is it possible for me to launch applications while specifying which interface to use? Some sort of environmental variable?
[05:14] <aptcachebug> server_: im sorry, i don't see your problem, can you explain further?
[05:15] <mdel> any ideas as to why my apache2 server would be running out of memory on a single request?
[05:15] <mdel> installed via "apt-get install lamp-server^"
[05:15] <mdel> ubuntu 9.10
[05:16] <wage> ok, i need help... i just accidentally deleted /usr ... computer still on what do i do?
[05:16] <server_> aptcachebug, then I need to make one of the network cards the "main" card to connect to the internet. Should I use firestarter?
[05:16] <mdel> wage: uhhh
[05:16] <mdel> wage: you might need to reinstall
[05:16] <mdel> wage: i'd backup your data now
[05:16] <ajitabhpandey> wage: you may need to reinstall
[05:17] <mdel> before you rm -rf it ;)
[05:17] <aptcachebug> server_: there is a website on how to share the internet using ubuntu, let me find it
[05:17] <wage> the /home is on its own partition, that should be fine righT?
[05:17] <mdel> yea just reinstall then
[05:17] <server_> aptcachebug, thank you, I really appreciate your help
[05:17] <mdel> wage: and be sure to specify the mount point for /home
[05:17] <mdel> when you reinstall
[05:17] <aptcachebug> server_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing ;glad to help

[05:18] <ajitabhpandey> wage: and while you specify the correct mount point for /home, make sure you do not select the "format" option
[05:18] <wage> ok
[05:19] <mkurczyn> helo , I am Martin
[05:19] <aptcachebug> server_: i used that page to share the internet from ethernet to wireless using those three lines (iptables) under the configure nat section
[05:19] <aptcachebug> !hello | mkurczyn
[05:19] <Firstgear_> is it possible to take a "snapshot" of how the windows are arranged in Ubuntu so that they can be saved and re-opened in the same order when wanted?
[05:20] <Firstgear_> the same order and position, size etc..
[05:20] <mdel> Fatal error: out of dynamic memory in yy_create_buffer() in Unknown on line 0
[05:20] <mdel> apache is running up the memory until it crashes the server
[05:20] <aptcachebug> Firstgear_: please fill out that suggestion at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com (refer to gdm as the package to do that)

[05:21] <MaRk-I> !ics
[05:22] <Blue1> moymoy: not that I am aware of...
[05:22] <aptcachebug> fearful: i am, go ahead
[05:23] <fearful> aptcachebug, I thought it may have been a disc issue I had burn previously with Brasero, I made a fresh cd using windows and toshiba disc creator and same issue with child_rip.
[05:23] <abhijit> aptcachebug, :)
[05:23] <moymoy> MaRk-I: I mean like, have rtorrent on wlan0, chrome on eth0 and firefox on eth1, ssh on eth2 .... that sort of thing
[05:23] <aptcachebug> fearful: ok, its not the CD then, i don't know of any issue, my 10.04 ran fine on x64, are you using live or alternative disk?
[05:24] <MaRk-I> moymoy: no idea
[05:24] <fearful> Live
[05:24] <yannf> hello
[05:24] <fearful> aptcachebug, live sorry

[05:25] <yannf> I have a pb with openoffice-base: "S1000 General error java.util no such element exception"
[05:25] <aptcachebug> fearful: i can look it up a little on the internet, i would consider getting sudo lshw into a file and attach a new bug on the ubuntu forums if i don't find anything

[05:25] <shafiq> can anyone tell me why my Samsung printer isn't showing up as an option to print from anymore?
[05:26] <fearful> aptcachebug, thanks, I am also searching see I'm trying to install it on my bros computer on seperate partition wants to try it out
[05:26] <yannf> abhijit, no answer there after 2 days
[05:26] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Has it changed from being your default printer?
[05:26] <abhijit> yannf, ok .
[05:26] <aptcachebug> fearful: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/472183 ;its a bug with your motherboard, there is a fix on that page
[05:27] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: it doesn't even seem to be an option.  and the oddest part is, i can't even add a new printer to my system (under system>admin>printers)
[05:27] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: it's like something "broke"
[05:27] <yannf> abatoo, looking on the net, it appears than using another Java engine might help
[05:27] <yannf> any idea?
[05:28] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Ok - starting from the top, what has changed, been changed, updated, added or modified since it last worked?
[05:28] <fearful> aptcachebug, thanks bro
[05:29] <shafiq> hmm, not sure, but i can say that i did a system update yesterday i think and it froze, so i had to do a "dpkg configure -a" or something liek that to fix the broken install.  it was a font package i think.  but other than that, i can't really imagine what else it could be
[05:29] <shafiq> should i try and reinstall cups maybe?
[05:30] <CAPcap> hey I have Dreamlinux running in virtualbox, theres a program in dreamlinux to make a persistent usb of it. i want to use it to make one, but it cant find my flash drive through virtualbox. help?
[05:30] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, What would be best to do first and foremost, is delete the printer (if you can), then manually run a package update, then upgrade (make sure nothing further gets broken) then turn off the printer, turn it back on - see if it's "re found"....
[05:30] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: just did a reinstall of cups and it worked
[05:30] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Roger that - that's easier.
[05:31] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: and also, the printer wasn't showing at all.  strange that it worked now though.  thanks for all the suggestions :)
[05:31] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Just a thought - if this happens again, what about just restarting the cups service?
[05:31] <fearful> aptcachebug, thanks bro I was successful just a question what does it mean by booting acpi=off, I will have to always boot this way correct?
[05:32] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: well, i rebooted to see if that fixed it before and it did not.
[05:32] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Strange that mate.
[05:32] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: weird how things just seem to break in ubuntu sometimes. lol
[05:32] <MaRk-I> CAPcap: if you used virtualbox OSE edition you cant use usb ports
[05:33] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, Well, truthfully, it's when the updates hit - or when something gets installed. I've got a few servers sitting around that I just don't touch - and they're happy as Larry - as long as nothing is done to them.
[05:33] <CAPcap> crap i am... how do i get around that? is there another program?
[05:33] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: really... so you don't update them at all?
[05:34] <JulieJulie> Helloo all.
[05:34] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, They're servers - they're happy doing what they're doing - the only thing that needs updating is clamav and fprot...nothing more...they're just servers.
[05:34] <aptcachebug> !hi | juliejulie
[05:34] <revilodraw> i have lildvdread4 and vlc media player and cant play a dvd?
[05:35] <CAPcap> crap i am... how do i get around that? is there another program? MaRk-I
[05:35] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: what about updates for potential security vulnerabilities?

[05:36] <MaRk-I> CAPcap: burn the .iso with unetbooting start the pc and then do it with your real PC
[05:36] <Snakkah> Hi. I was wondering, is it possible to install Ubuntu on a USB flash drive (32 GB)? And if so, which distro would be my best option?
[05:36] <Snakkah> Or would it be better to just use something like Xubuntu?
[05:36] <JulieJulie> I am wondering what is the best way to go about, dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu?
[05:36] <Buntfu> anyone in here ever sell any linux hardware or systems?
[05:36] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, For all that we're security conscious, when was the last time a nicely locked down linux server was beaten up? "Plan the work, work the plan" - lock it down from the beginning - a server is a server, and when setup exactly as that, well, it's generally quite happy and solid and secure. I'll patch'em after 6 months, otherwise, nothing.
[05:37] <JulieJulie> Some guides say, just do side by side, some say, do a small partition for windows system file, and another small parition for ubuntu system file, then a larger partition for the two OS to use as storage?
[05:37] <abhijit> Buntfu, whats your real questin?
[05:37] <CAPcap> Snakkah, the lighter the desktop environment or window manager the better for that purpose so xubuntu would run better than ubuntu, and lubuntu better than xubuntu.
[05:37] <xeer> Is there a file manager with a media player integrated? I believe a media plugin for nautilus would have already been considered but I can't find anything
[05:37] <aptcachebug> Snakkah: it is possible, but the larger the flash drive, the slower they are, so you may want to consider placing it on a smaller flash drive, like 8 gb max
[05:37] <Buntfu> abhijit, looking for someone to talk to about the market
[05:37] <revilodraw> aptcachebug: as i said, i already have libdvdread4
[05:37] <shafiq> YankDownUnder: interesting.  thank you for sharing.  never really worked with linux as mainly servers.
[05:38] <Snakkah> Oh really? I would think they would be faster on a larger drive?
[05:38] <abhijit> !ot | Buntfu
[05:38] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, They're cheaper and less stress to run for business purposes...do pretty much the same thing...
[05:38] <fearful> aptcachebug, did you get my last message?
[05:38] <aptcachebug> Snakkah: lto put ubuntu 10.04 on
[05:38] <YankDownUnder> shafiq, ...they just don't need to be rebooted or "watched for security issues" as much as anything MS
[05:38] <Buntfu> abhijit, thx
[05:39] <abhijit> Buntfu, welcome :)
[05:39] <thune3> Snakkah: the biggest isue with USB flash drive is the poor random write performance.  I wouldn't mind having to use Lubuntu or Xubuntu. This is mainly for work purposes anyway.
[05:40] <CAPcap> Snakkah, have you used lubuntu?
[05:40] <Buntfu> Snakkah, how light do you need it?
[05:41] <Snakkah> Light enough to have ample space for documents and a few other files I'll be carrying around with me on the OS.
[05:41] <CAPcap> Snakkah, I only ask because lxde can be a little quirky. its fast but is not without problems
[05:41] <Snakkah> And I haven't used Lubuntu. Not yet anyway lol
[05:42] <thune3> Snakkah: my full ubuntu install on USB is < 3GB for system. The rest are my files. I don't think space will be an issue for any of the versions on a 32GB flash drive.
[05:43] <Snakkah> Oh okay, good.
[05:44] <Snakkah> thune3, if I have it on a USB drive would I be able to boot from any public computer, or no?
[05:45] <notorious> How do I mount a network share?
[05:46] <viiacesxh> ?
[05:46] <thune3> Snakkah: i'm not sure, i think so. As long as you leave network and drive stuff to the automatic mechinisms, and don't customize it too much.
[05:46] <Snakkah> Hm okay
[05:48] <Snakkah> thune3, how is your system less than 3 GB? I have Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop here and it says the system is taking up 6 GB of the 500 GB HDD.
[05:51] <thune3> Snakkah: Snakkah: well i have /var/log /var/run /tmp mounted using aufs as tmpfs so they never accumulate, and i have synaptic set to delete .debs after installing (or run apt-get clean periodically). I do imagine that I would probably install another GB of apps if I wasn't space constrained.
[05:51] <Guest12392> hhelo?\
[05:51] <thune3> Snakkah: even 6GB would give you 26GB for personal files on a 32GB stick
[05:51] <Guest12392> hello?
[05:51] <root> hi
[05:51] <Snakkah> Hm, true.
[05:52] <Guest12392> whats up!

[05:53] <violinappren> !help | LOS
[05:53] <Guest68040> doing airmon-ng isnt giving me the wireless adapters name...is it because i also have an ethernet plugged in?

[05:54] <violinappren> Guest68040: are you running it as root?

[05:58] <violinappren> !help | dudewhat
[05:59] <dudewhat> im trying to edit source code for xchat, its written in C but there is no main.c file in there
[05:59] <dudewhat> how do i edit it?
[06:00] <dudewhat> there are only source and header files
[06:00] <abhijit> dudewhat, ask in #xchat
[06:00] <Edzo> yeah first u have to hack into the mainframe and hardwire a line into the c and then it explodes but its supposed to do that
[06:00] <Purpley> dudewhat: Open it in your favorite edtior
[06:00] <MoobyFR> you probably need to learn more how to program...
[06:00] <Purpley> Edzo: Lol
[06:00] <dudewhat> what the hell, all C programs have to have a main
[06:00] <Edzo> dont lie to us
[06:01] <violinappren> dudewhat: check xchat website to find their development mailing lists

[06:01] <dudewhat> thanks im not crazy...
[06:02] <Edzo> dude......what?
[06:02] <dudewhat> seidos said he had the same problem
[06:02] <Edzo> u mean the guy that just said that seconds ago?
[06:02] <Purpley> Quick question, if i access a file for example if I open a text file on a ssh machine am I downloading it and opening it or is it opened remotely and displayed remotely?
[06:02] <dudewhat> i thought i was going crazy
[06:02] <Purpley> Kinda stupid but just wondered
[06:03] <violinappren> Purpley: downloaded to a temporary file and sent back when saved
[06:03] <seidos> dudewhat, maybe your original question was valid.  I'm not sure how many users in here actually bother to try to read the source code.  Not meaning to disparage the room, I just have no clue to what the value of that statistic is.
[06:03] <umarsheikh> can anyone help me out with this error, which has stopped me getting updates to my ubuntu 8.04:
[06:03] <dudewhat> well you cant edit code with just editing the functions
[06:03] <dudewhat> you need the main file
[06:03] <Purpley> violinappren: Ahh what about if opened with vi?
[06:03] <sunzaru> how do i install a font as a system font instead of just for ME?
[06:03] <dudewhat> thats where the functions are used
[06:03] <umarsheikh> A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
[06:03] <umarsheikh> Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:

[06:04] <violinappren> Purpley: are you opening is inside an ssh session in a terminal or using Places > Connect To?
[06:04] <MoobyFR> dudewhat: just relly look at the source code ...
[06:04] <Purpley> violinappren: inside a ssh session
[06:04] <violinappren> umarsheikh: report it on launchpad
[06:04] <dudewhat> what does that mean
[06:04] <dudewhat> i looked at all the files
[06:05] <Edzo>  im 12 and what is this
[06:05] <Purpley> And what the heck, how do i exit out of VI lol I feel extremely stupid
[06:05] <umarsheikh> violinappren, where is launchpad
[06:05] <violinappren> Purpley: then no, it's not downloaded, the ssh binary transmits everything you see on a terminal back and forth, as if it's local terminal
[06:05] <Purpley> violinappren: Ahh thats what I thought
[06:06] <Edzo> YOU GET NOTHING, YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!
[06:06] <yannf> Purpley, :q

[06:08] <yannf> Purpley, well, I am using vim regex all the time, and I can't live without it now ;)
[06:08] <yannf> I even edit Wikipedia that way
[06:08] <seidos> yannf, what is vim regex?
[06:09] <seidos> the only complaint I have with vim is I haven't figured out how to copy/paste an entire file
[06:09] <yannf> regular expressions
[06:09] <notorious> I'm trying to make it so that I can mount drives from a networked computer.  How can I do this so I can access it from command line?

[06:09] <violinappren> notorious: what is the remote machine running? if it's running ssh, you can use sshfs
[06:10] <notorious> windows, violin
[06:10] <seidos> yannf, I don't get what regular expressions have to do with vim.
[06:10] <yannf> seidos, it depends where you want to copy/paste? inside an existing file? as a new file?
[06:10] <seidos> yannf, from vim to paste.ubuntu.com
[06:11] <Edzo> no copypasta

[06:13] <notorious> problem with that, violin, is that I can't get a servername to work
[06:13] <yannf> seidos, :%s/search/replace/gc
[06:13] <seidos> yannf, I'll try it
[06:13] <violinappren> notorious: pastebin it
[06:13] <yannf> % is for the entire file, g for global, c for confirm
[06:14] <seidos> I'll put it in a notes file.
[06:14] <seidos> yannf, what about copy pasting an entire file into pastebin?
[06:14] <notorious> I can get into the Windows Network, but when I click on the domain, I get "Unable to mount location.  Failed to retreive share list from server"

[06:18] <micah> ahh good idea
[06:18] <micah> thank you

[06:20] <notorious> I would like to do that too
[06:21] <notorious> but the servername doesn't work to begin with
[06:21] <notorious> the only way I can get to it is via the IP address
[06:21] <violinappren> notorious: it's easier to troubleshoot from command line, so paste the command are trying to use to mount it and the error it returns in a pastebin
[06:22] <notorious> mount -a is the command i'm trying to use
[06:22] <Toa> Why would a 2GB flash drive, which appears all but 128GB full, have only 743MB of files on it, according to nautilus?  I've checked the file system in both Gparted and fdisk (where it reports correctly), as well as run a file system check on it (also lists no problem).  More importantly, how would I fix it, short of reformatting the drive?
[06:22] <violinappren> notorious: "mount -a" is not intended to mount a windows share
[06:23] <yoshie> Anyone see my txt ?

[06:24] <violinappren> !es | Gues233
[06:24] <yoshie> Oh ok, sorry as i am new to this irc, Thank you
[06:25] <violinappren> Toa: probably a problem in the partition table, move the data and recreate the partition table in gparted
[06:26] <CAPcap> I have a lubuntu 10.04 iso and id like to make a persistent lubuntu usb. can anyone help me with this?
[06:26] <Toa> violinappren, thanks.  Is there a way to verify if there is actually a total of 743MB on the drive or a total of 1.9GB before I do that?
[06:26] <sprung> Hi, I want to fix the notorious problem where when using Archive Mounter to mount an iso file, all files have a ";1" following the last character of the filename, rendering the volume unusable. Very annoying. I see there are lots of THREADS on ubuntu support forums, but not all that many possible solutions, and a lot of frustration from the posters. Any help getting the correct resolution for this problem?
[06:27] <deexannihilate> Anyone know how I can install flex to a USB? The computer I'm trying to get it on needs Wine to run internet and it's the only way to get it there. "Sudo apt-get install flex" will not work for me.
[06:27] <Toa> yoshie, does anything happen when you insert the disc?
[06:28] <violinappren> Toa: i don't know, sorry
[06:29] <yoshie> Toa, absolutely, mounts fine, but in order to install world of warcraft you need to first unmount it, Than mount it again for the sake of the hidden files on the DVD, but when i mount the DVD again it ses mount device not found
[06:30] <sprung> yoshie, it may be more appropriate for you to ask in #winehq
[06:30] <Omen_20> Is there a command to refresh the panel? I installed gnomenu but it isnt showing to add.
[06:30] <yoshie> hmm
[06:30] <violinappren> deexannihilate: what is 'flex'? i know two programs named flex and they ave nothing to do with internet access
[06:30] <sprung> deexannihilate, you may want to ask in #winehq as well
[06:30] <yoshie> Sprung,well i know its a Ubuntu problem, because it works fine in 9.10
 have you tried playonlinux to install wow ?
[06:31] <bullgard> Is the proper way to retart the NetworkManager '~$ service networki-manager restart' or '~$ sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart'?

[06:32] <yoshie> Jamil_1 no I havent, I usually use Wine or Codeweavers.
[06:32] <CAPcap> I have a lubuntu 10.04 iso and id like to make a persistent lubuntu usb. can anyone help me with this?
 playonlinux uses wine at the backend but makes installation rather easy

[06:33] <bullgard> CAPcap: You want to make a usb? Oh, oh!
[06:33] <CAPcap> bullgard yes a persistent one
[06:34] <Toa> CAPcap, what are you running now?
[06:34] <bullgard> CAPcap: Good luck, Mr. engineer.
[06:34] <yoshie> Jamil_1 yes that mite work, but do you know what may be causing the error and how to fix it?
[06:34] <CAPcap> Toa, Lucid
[06:34] <yoshie> the closest thing i could come up with is Permissions have changed since 9.10

[06:35] <Purpley> Hi guys, if my ssh connection is rather laggy, .5 to 2 seconds of lag is there a way to counteract it?
[06:35] <Toa> CAPcap, Good luck.  There's another one at pendrivelinux.com if you need it.
[06:36] <violinappren> Purpley: use ssh -C (for compressing data back and forth)
 sorry but can you reiterate the problem
[06:36] <CAPcap> Toa, for what i can find there, they are all based on windows and require programs that only run on windows
[06:36] <abhijit> !tab | jamil_1
[06:36] <Purpley> violinappren: Im using putty but im sure theres a noption for that, thanks

[06:40] <Toa> CAPcap, I thought there were more Linux tutorials there than there are, but there are a few at the bottom of the page. Like http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-ubuntu-9-10-live-usb-from-cd/

[06:51] <jamil_1> yoshie, you are using this command: sudo mount -t iso9660 -o ro,unhide /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0/ ?
[06:51] <duckslammer> abhijit - i loaded docky yesterday and like it - what is cairo dock and why would i change?

[06:53] <Zelozelos> i use the remote desktop viewer to monitor my kiddies computer which i also use to play music over my central pa, sometimes they log off and i was wondering is there a way for me to login using the remote desktop viewer or some other way?
[06:53] <Loshki> yoshie: given that you know the identical command worked in 9.10 (you did say that, right?) then I'd say you've hit a bug. Have you looked in launchpad?
[06:54] <yoshie> jamil_1 yes it worked in 9.10 thats correct and using the same commands, As far as launch pad im not sure what that is sorry.

[06:54] <choonming> hi there. i got a question regarding about HAL... what are the downsides of using HAL?
[06:55] <yoshie> Jamil_1 can you give me about 15 min ?
[06:55] <jamil_1> yoshie, sure
[06:55] <Loshki> choonming: isn't HAL deprecated and due for removal? That would seem like a big downside...
[06:56] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok gonna do a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 ... had to go back to windows sadly, give me a few minutes k
[06:56] <sebsebseb> choonming: Loshki  HAL is removed in 10.04, and nearly removed in 9.10
[06:56] <choonming> Loshki, i know it is deprecated but i want to under further why is that so
[06:56] <sebsebseb> choonming: I think since they thought they could speed up boot up without HAL,  other distros still have HAL by the way
[06:57] <choonming> sebsebseb, i noticed HAL has been replaced by udev
[06:57] <vikasap> Hello all, The most used application in my computer is firefox. I am thinking of ways to speed up its performance. Will compiling firefox speed it up for me ?
[06:57] <violinappren> Zelozelos: google "gdm remote login"
[06:57] <Zelozelos> violinappren, kk ty i will
[06:57] <choonming> sebsebseb, to my understanding, HAL is similar to udev in terms of functionality but udev is much more lower level
[06:57] <sebsebseb> choonming: udev ?

[07:10] <sebsebseb> YunIntegral: no
[07:10] <airtonix> YunIntegral, no its a copy of paint.net >> which is.
[07:10] <sebsebseb> YunIntegral: its an alternative to Paint.net which is quite popular in Windows
[07:10] <TiK> anyone know how t make a 32bit SB startup disk hve a persistance
[07:10] <YunIntegral> yes yes alternative
[07:11] <violinappren> atx_: did you try ffmpeg and mencode ?

[07:11] <airtonix> sebsebseb, i would.
[07:11] <Eventyret> Anyone got a good hand with Xconf, having some display id problems with the nvidia drivers. ? Ubuntu x64 10.4
[07:11] <YunIntegral> hm..
[07:11] <sebsebseb> YunIntegral: Pinta hasn't been around for that long, but by the sounds of it is a good program,  you will find that Photoshop can do much more though
[07:11] <TrentonAdams> how do I get thunderbird 3.1 through the package manager?

[07:12] <Goatee> I can't install custom gwibber themes. I checked everything. it seems to me that the only real difference between the custom theme and the default themes is that the custom template.mako is seen by ubuntu as an html file and the default ones as plain text. I can't figure out how to tell ubuntu that the custom .mako is a plain text also. could anyone help me here?
[07:12] <intmed> what is pulseaudio
[07:12] <Eventyret> violinappren: i did ask the question in one line :P and it was just one question ^^
[07:12] <sebsebseb> intmed: what Ubuntu uses by default for sound since 8.04
[07:13] <sebsebseb> intmed: it is also the cause for most problems with sound in Ubuntu,  because they haven't exactly done it properly
[07:13] <violinappren> Eventyret: you asked if someone could help you but you didn't state exactly what the problem is
[07:13] <TiK> anyone know how t make a 32bit USB startup disk hve a persistance, I run 64 bit and need a bootable USB or school that saves files) but it as greyed out
[07:13] <airtonix> i don't share that opinion
[07:13] <TrentonAdams> anyone use thunderbird 3.1 on ubuntu?
[07:13] <OpenSourcery> is there a way to have output from a command be send to a file as well as be printed to the terminal
[07:14] <airtonix> OpenSourcery, ask in #bash
[07:14] <OpenSourcery> ok
[07:14] <intmed> ok
[07:14] <rebirth> i am having problems with pulseaudio
[07:14] <Eventyret> violinappren:  i stated its with xconfig and the nvidia drivers :P
[07:15] <Eventyret> and i cant seem to find how to config it correctly oO
[07:15] <intmed> sebsebseb: i downloaded impulse screenlet. but it now working. any one tried it
[07:15] <violinappren> Eventyret: what errors do you get?
[07:15] <sebsebseb> intmed: I don't know what that is
[07:15] <realubot> Is it possible to list all packages and updates installed on my system from a spcial PPA?
[07:15] <Eventyret> violinappren: uhm had lots of it before X started, dunno if its a log of them somewhere ? it seems it just not starting
[07:16] <intmed> it is graphical spectram analyzer
[07:16] <violinappren> Eventyret: they could be in /var/log/Xorg* .. check
[07:16] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok back
[07:16] <intmed> sebsebseb: which version of ubuntu are you using ?
[07:16] <johngilbrough> Need help -- something i installed this afternoon via apt-get has messed things up bad -- how do I determin what I've installed in reverse time order?
[07:17] <johngilbrough> Most current first?
[07:17] <sebsebseb> intmed: I don't use Ubuntu on this computer anymore, with the exception of  Ubuntu virtual machine trying of the development version sometimes, another distro instead
[07:17] <Eventyret> violinappren: it is xorg.1.log.old
[07:17] <intmed> sebsebseb: ok
[07:17] <Eventyret> violinappren: but it is <IP_ADDRESS> :P
[07:18] <violinappren> johngilbrough: check dpkg/apt logs
[07:18] <umarsheikh> i have a ubuntu 10 cd, and my os is curretnly ubuntu 8.04. can i upgrade to ubuntu 10 but still keeep all my data and programs intact?
[07:18] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: yes, but
[07:19] <TiK> umarsheikh: partition you harddrive and copy what you want to save (movies and music?) onto it I guess
[07:19] <Eventyret> violinappren:  found it
[07:19] <Eventyret> violinappren:  (EE) Jul 16 07:48:05 NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the
[07:19] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: it seems that its best to wait for the .1 release which will be soon,  I mean the update manager in 8.04 isn't even telling you that 10.04 is availalbe yet right?
[07:19] <violinappren> Eventyret: copy to a pastebin
[07:19] <Eventyret> oh my apologize :)
[07:19] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: I was told that it won't tell 8.04 users that 10.04 is available until the 10.04.1 release earlier
[07:19] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: so that when they upgrade it should be quite stable
[07:20] <yoshie> jamil_1 you there?
[07:20] <Eventyret>  violinappren http://pastebin.org/398858
[07:20] <vikasap> How can I reduce the size of my icons on the desktop ?
[07:20] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, thanks for the information, my ubuntu 8.04 is badly broken, i filed a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/606131. it tells me it needs to update 1072 or sth
[07:21] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: whats the problem with the 8.04 install?
[07:21] <non00b> can someone please point me to a guide on using upstart, please. I'm still used to doing things the old-school way & need to alter some servies startup & priorities
[07:21] <violinappren> vikasap: in nautilus, edit > preferences
[07:21] <jamil_1> yoshie, yp
[07:22] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, it was working all right till a week ago, i last updated my system about two weeks ago, but now it gives me the error that it cannot calculate upgrade.
[07:22] <Sickler> hey ya'll, when i spoof my mac address i cannot access the internet thereafter, i have tried disabling my wireless network and powercycling my router. any advice?
[07:22] <thune3> purvesh: i don't think the keyboard error message is a problem. The bug you link to, the person had that error message, but the problem was something else: a video problem. have you ever gotten graphics working on this system?
[07:22] <yoshie> jamil_1 here is the out put error in terminal,   yoshie@yoshie-desktop:~$ sudo mount -t udf -o ro,unhide,uid=yoshie /dev/cdrom /dev/cdrom0
[07:22] <yoshie> mount: mount point /dev/cdrom0 does not exist
[07:22] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, sudo apt-get -f install does nothing,
[07:22] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: ok Synaptic has an  option for fixing broken packages and such
[07:23] <Goatee> I can't install custom gwibber themes. it seems to me that the only difference between the custom theme and the default themes is that the custom template.mako is seen by ubuntu as an html file and the default ones as plain text. How can I tell ubuntu that the custom .mako is a plain text as well?
[07:23] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, how do i make use of it and where is it?
[07:23] <nisstyre65> Sickler: check if your access point has mac addr filtering?
[07:23] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: look around Synaptic there should be an option or two, that can probably help you
[07:23] <jamil_1> yoshie, change /dev/cdrom0 to /cdrom
[07:23] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: system > administration  > synaptic package manager
[07:23] <Sickler> nisstyre65: how would i do that
[07:24] <nisstyre65> Sickler: do you have access to your router or whatever you're using to connect to the internet?
[07:24] <Sickler> nisstyre65: yea
[07:24] <Eventyret> violinappren:  i will try a reinstall of the driver found a guide on the forums
[07:24] <violinappren> Eventyret: then check the kernel logs
[07:24] <vikasap> violinappren: There is nothing between 66% and 100% :-P
[07:24] <yoshie> jamil_1 hmm did that and nothing happend. interesting
[07:25] <yoshie> jamil_1 seems like we are on the right track though
[07:25] <jamil_1> yoshie, you are in terminal right ?
[07:25] <nisstyre65> Sickler: just see if it has an option to only allow certain mac addresses, but that isn't likely to be the problem. What are you 'spoofing' your mac address to? It might be autodetecting bogus mac addresses or something.
[07:25] <jamil_1> yoshie,  cd /cdrom
[07:25] <yoshie> jamil_1 correct
[07:25] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: also when/if you get that working great,  if you got a 8.04 that works nicely again,  I assume your on the desktop,  well if I was doing 8.04 on the desktop still,  I would  keep it probably untill it goes end of life no more security updates,  at the end of April next year
[07:25] <jamil_1> yoshie, and then type ls
[07:26] <Eventyret> exit
[07:26] <Sickler> nisstyre65: i am using macchanger-gtk and creating one very similar fake one compared to mine
[07:26] <yoshie> jamil_1 output pasted,  Autorun.inf    Installer.ico         Installer Tome 6.mpq

[07:26] <umarsheikh> ok sebsebseb now when i ask it to fix, it says fixed. and when i ask synaptic to reload package infromation, it says: W: GPG error: http://debian.lcs.mit.edu squeeze Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 9AA38DCD55BE302B
[07:26] <Hibchibbler> to autoload a kernel module, it says to add an entry to /etc/modules.  I'm wondering where it looks for the ko files by default, and how to add additional paths?
[07:26] <jamil_1> yoshie, now you can use wine
[07:26] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: ok looks like you have added a Debian repo yourself, your not meant to use Debian repos at al in Ubuntu
[07:27] <sebsebseb> !debian | umarsheikh
[07:27] <yoshie> jamil_1 only problem is i need to see the DVD icon to right click on that .EXE file to use wine to install it.
[07:27] <xahur> i asked for help getting gnome-user-share to work, so far I've only been told to read up on smb. which doesn't really help me on the isdue in question
[07:27] <jamil_1> yoshie, type: echo $PWD
[07:27] <xahur> issue*
[07:27] <johngilbrough> violinappren, I think it was cairo-clock - will restart and see....
[07:28] <nisstyre65> Sickler: you could try doing it "manually" and see if there's any difference http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MAC_Address_Spoofing#Method_2:_Manual
[07:28] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: and when you download Debs yourself, make sure they are for Ubuntu, not Debian, and from trusted sources such as offical websites
[07:28] <Sickler> nisstyre65: will do thanks, ill give it a shot
[07:28] <yoshie> jamil_1 i see the LS list in Terminal, but nothing on the Desktop or the Computer
[07:28] <MaRk-I> umarsheikh: you need to add that pgp key or disable that repo temporarily
[07:28] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, now how do i remove this addition.
[07:28] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: Why were you adding a repo yourself, for what?
[07:28] <umarsheikh> MaRk-I, i would be glad to disable it and move ahead
[07:29] <jamil_1> yoshie, what was the output of last command ?
[07:29] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, i dont remember, probably i added it for rabbitmq-server but i am not sure
[07:29] <preecher> i kno this isnt ubuntu related but when i go to dload a program and it takes me to a "ftp" with a list of a lot of different files like -parent directory and so on--how do i download the program im wanting
[07:29] <yoshie> jamil_1 last command i did was LS
[07:29] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: right and what is that?
[07:29] <jamil_1> yoshie, echo $PWD
[07:29] <MaRk-I> umarsheikh: system/administracion/software sources / 3rd party uncheck it
[07:30] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, related to events handling in probably rails applications, but may be its scope is a bit broader
[07:30] <yoshie> Jamil_1   yoshie@yoshie-desktop:/cdrom$ echo $PWD
[07:30] <yoshie> yoshie@yoshie-desktop:/cdrom$
[07:30] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: yeah go into software sources like he said, you can also get into it from Synaptic
[07:30] <jamil_1> yoshie, type wine Installer.exe
[07:30] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: then remove/disable the repo in there
[07:30] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: also if the program is installed from that repo, you should probably really remove it first
[07:31] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok let me finish these updates for ubuntu and ill try that command
[07:31] <Purpley> Is there a easy way to test the upload speed on my server through ssh?
[07:31] <vikasap> Is it ok to remove ubuntu one if I dont really use it ?
[07:31] <violinappren> preecher: do you mean an ftp client? try filezilla, gftp or just enter the ftp url in firefox
[07:31] <umarsheikh> MaRk-I and sebseb there are a number of things from there, like medibuntu, debian, ppa etc. shouldi uncheck the debian only or all of them?
[07:31] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: altough the message you did copy in, was simpally a security warning,  you hadn't done the verification thing,  however it also did say it was for Debian squeeze
[07:32] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: and your not meant to be using Debian versions of programs/repos in Ubuntu, as I was saying
[07:32] <MaRk-I> umarsheikh: read your the ERROR, gives you which repo is failing
[07:32] <preecher> violinappren thx
[07:32] <vikasap> I am skeptical about the software that I might accidently sync my data online
[07:32] <MaRk-I> umarsheikh: http://debian.lcs.mit.edu squeeze      <<<<
[07:32] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: just untick the Debian repo that you showed here
[07:32] <umarsheikh> MaRk-I, and sebsebseb ok, thanks, will uncheck that. i think i updaetd a file to effect adding of debian. do i also need to edit that source file, or will making changes from here also update that file?
[07:32] <Purpley> Is there a easy way to test the upload speed on my server through ssh?
[07:32] <sebsebseb> vikasap: yes you can remove Ubuntu One :)
[07:32] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, ok will uncheck that
[07:33] <sebsebseb> vikasap: also you need an acstaul Ubuntu One account to use it
[07:33] <intmed> is ubuntu repository for ubuntu 64bit different from 32bit
[07:33] <sebsebseb> intmed: no
[07:33] <TiK> intmed: yeah different deb files are dl'd
[07:33] <Goatee> Gwibber won't accept custom themes. it seems to me that the only difference between the custom and the default theme is that the custom template.mako is seen by ubuntu as an html file and the default one as plain text. How can I tell ubuntu that the custom .mako is a plain text as well?
[07:33] <sebsebseb> intmed: in fact I think  its the same repo for both versions, and then they just detect 32bit or 64bit
[07:33] <vikasap> sebsebseb: Ok , thank you
[07:33] <DasEi> Purpley: do a testfile with scp, that also shows speed
[07:33] <finemann> Hi, my laptop runs lucid. When I start it, the screen blinks four times and a message regarding a missing WMID driver appears. After that everything starts normally. Is this a problem? (I have only ubuntu on my sys)
[07:33] <violinappren> Purpley: do you mean the upload speed for the whole server? try ntop
[07:34] <thune3> Hibchibbler: i believe you can make a directory  under /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/ and put it there. See item 10) in http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-module.html Set autoload with the instructions you have.
[07:34] <intmed> ok
[07:34] <Purpley> violinappren: Does that require a gui?
[07:34] <MaRk-I> finemann: acer laptop?
[07:34] <sebsebseb> vikasap: Your welcome :)
[07:34] <finemann> MaRk-I: yup
[07:34] <violinappren> Purpley: no, runs in terminal like top
[07:34] <vikasap> I simply hate software such as ubuntu one :-P
[07:34] <sebsebseb> vikasap: Ubuntu One is something I don't want to use either :)
[07:34] <MaRk-I> finemann: you might want to blacklist acer-wmi
[07:34] <Purpley> vikasap: You hate ubuntu! What?
[07:35] <vikasap> Purpley: You are missing the One
[07:35] <sebsebseb> Purpley: read it again
[07:35] <Purpley> sebsebseb: Ahhh
[07:35] <Purpley> Im tired :/ eyes decieve me
[07:35] <umarsheikh> sebsebseb, and MaRk-I , as soon as i removed the debian, my update has started wroking again, thanks a lot for this very frightening, but easy-to-fix-if-you-know-it fix!
[07:35] <finemann> MaRk-I: why is it having a problem?
[07:36] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: Your welcome :)
[07:36] <sebsebseb> umarsheikh: and indeed pretty easy to fix
[07:36] <finemann> MaRk-I: i mean: why, is it having a problem?
[07:36] <Purpley> violinappren: ? I dont see anything simple looks like its doing something with a bunch of protocols I just need to test port 80
[07:36] <Purpley> And see my servers upload kinda like speedtest.net
[07:36] <MaRk-I> finemann: no idea, google acer-wmi you'll see... but you can blacklist it doing the following in terminal and reboot: echo blacklist acer-wmi | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-acer-wmi.conf
[07:37] <TiK> Purp: you can upload a dummy file
[07:37] <jenue> guys, does ftp works fine in your ubuntu 10.04?
[07:37] <finemann> MaRk-I: so after that the whole thing'll come alright?
[07:38] <MaRk-I> finemann: actually do:   gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf     and just add:   blacklist acer-wmi              save and reboot
[07:39] <finemann> MaRk-I: okay, thanks lemme see.
[07:39] <yoshie> jamil_1 Updates finished need to restart be right back.
[07:40] <purvesh> thune3, sry for this much late reply, ya m often using my onboard graphic. i mean i use last option at Desktop prefrence, Visual Effect - Extra
[07:41] <Hibchibbler> thune3: thank you
[07:41] <thune3> purvesh: i'm not following. you have a configuration that works? and then you do something that doesn't work?
[07:42] <rage1> does vmware server allow creation of guest images? or is workstation required?
[07:42] <Goatee> Gwibber won't accept custom themes. The only difference between the custom and the default theme is that the custom template.mako is seen by ubuntu as an html file and the default one as plain text. How can I tell ubuntu that the custom .mako is a plain text as well?
[07:43] <purvesh> thune3, but ... may be all the thing is working fine
[07:43] <thune3> Hibchibbler: be aware that you will need to add that module to the dir of every new kernel you may upgrade to
[07:43] <thune3> purvesh: so everything works, you were just concerned about that error message?
[07:45] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok back
[07:45] <intmed> does ubuntu server stores the irc logs
[07:46] <s3r3n1t7> intmed, check the topic
[07:46] <Hibchibbler> thune3: when i upgrade, the path where it searches for modules changes?
[07:46] <finemann> MaRk-I: hi, the fix worked alright and i dont get anything about a missing wmid. but the screen still blinks 5 times. any way to fix this?
[07:46] <Aidar-Nagato> hi) i use one /boot for ubuntu and gentoo, but update-grub finds all kernels (both ubuntu's and gentoo's) and uses them with both system. is there a way to fix it without manual changing grub.cfg?
[07:47] <violinappren> Aidar-Nagato: why have the same /boot for two operating systems?!
[07:47] <intmed> s3r3n1t7: ok
[07:48] <Hibchibbler> thune3: ahh, so it must use the `uname -r` expansion
[07:48] <MaRk-I> finemann: hmm no idea depends on what makes it flicker/blink
[07:48] <thune3> Hibchibbler: each new kernel installs a new directory /lib/modules/2.6.32-99-generic/... , and that kernel searches for modules there.
[07:48] <yoshie> jamil_1 you there?
[07:48] <Hibchibbler> thune3: ok. thank you.
[07:48] <finemann> MaRk-I: anyway thanks regarding the other fix
[07:48] <MaRk-I> finemann: yw
[07:49] <jamil_1> yoshie, yp
[07:49] <arturo> hola?
[07:49] <jamil_1> yoshie, have you mounted the dvd ?
[07:49] <arturo> hola
[07:49] <System-7> Hello, I was just wondering, how can I change the gnome menu logo in the new 10.04 distro? I'm attempting to restore a decent human theme on my desktop, and I would rather get the classic colored logo up there than that dull gray one. I tried common places like /usr/share/icons but although my icon set is "Humanity" in the theme control changing "start-here.svg" in "Humanity" has no effect on the logo.
[07:49] <s3r3n1t7> Aidar-Nagato, I don't see how grub would be able to distinguish between the gentoo and ubuntu kernels, so I'm afraid the answer to that would be no.
[07:50] <Aidar-Nagato> s3r3n1t7, ok, thanx
[07:50] <intmed> i want a software to download a site, for offline reading
[07:50] <yoshie> jamil_1 no its on default right now, should i go ahead and unmount it and try to mount it again?
[07:51] <jamil_1> yoshie, yp
[07:51] <troopperi> intmed: firefox?
[07:52] <yoshie> jamil_1 right clicking on the DVD on the desktop doesnt give me the option to unmount like it did in 9.10
[07:52] <Sickler> does it make a difference that my wireless shows up as eth instead of wifi under ifconfig -a
[07:52] <Goatee> Gwibber won't accept custom themes. The only difference between the custom and the default theme is that the custom template.mako is seen by Ubuntu as an html file and the default one as plain text. How can I tell Ubuntu that the custom .mako is a plain text as well?
[07:52] <yoshie> jamil_1 should i just use terminal?> or is there  a way to fix this?
[07:52] <jamil_1> yoshie, you better make terminal you friend :)
[07:53] <rage1> does vmware server allow creation of guest images? or is workstation required?
[07:53] <violinappren> rage1: check it's entry on wikipedia
[07:53] <s3r3n1t7> Goatee, it depends on the content and the magic file numbers. Instead of going on the extensions like windows does, ubuntu checks the files themselves. For example, renaming a .avi to .jpg in windows will make it try to open in an image viewer, whereas ubuntu will still open it with a movie player. Have you checked that there are no spelling mistakes?
[07:54] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok i think its mounted...
[07:54] <jamil_1> yoshie, you are in terminal ?
[07:54] <yoshie> jamil_1 yes
[07:55] <violinappren> s3r3n1t7: actually, no. it depends on how the program code itself checks for file type (and not all programs use the same mechanism as file managers)
[07:55] <jamil_1> yoshie, dvd is mounted ?
[07:55] <Goatee> s3r3n1t7: I did. and Ubuntu does indeed see it as a plain text if I put .txt as extension.
[07:55] <yoshie> jamil_1 im not sure , doesnt show a desktop icon

[07:56] <jamil_1> yoshie, type:  cd /cdrom
[07:56] <yoshie> jamil_1 ok
[07:56] <violinappren> yoshie: use  a pastebin to avoid being silenced here
[07:57] <s3r3n1t7> violinappren, the program is called from ubuntu, which chooses the program depending on the file contents.
[07:57] <s3r3n1t7> Goatee, that's because both .html and .txt are text
[07:57] <jamil_1> yoshie, now ls and tell me if you get some out put or not
[07:58] <violinappren> s3r3n1t7: he's having a program with how gwibber detects the them not the file manager
[07:58] <violinappren> s/program/problem
[07:58] <Goatee> s3r3n1t7: but the info-window of the .mako differs both. and only the .mako's which as seen as "Plain Text" not "HTML file" are working as themes for some odd reason. :/
[07:58] <rox_> does this website work? http://www.xplicit.ca
[07:58] <s3r3n1t7> Goatee, it sounds like a spelling error in the custom .mako
[07:59] <yoshie> jamil_1 yes it has the output of the world of warcraft DVD
[07:59] <jamil_1> rox: only directory listing
[07:59] <jamil_1> ok
[07:59] <DasEi> rox_: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
[07:59] <jamil_1> yoshie, type wine Installer.exe
[07:59] <Topy> hm... i somehow fucked up my settings. on boot, i get the whole "your display isnt configured correctly" crap, but if i just cancel and start gdm from the command line it works perfectly
[08:00] <Goatee> s3r3n1t7: nope. it's template.mako. the same on the original. I copied the name from the original file. and the code in the .mako itself is correct too
[08:00] <yoshie> Jamil_1 it worked ! your a genius !!!!! thanks man
[08:00] <Topy> any ideas?
[08:01] <yoshie> jamil_1 Curious do you know why it has changed now in 10.04 ?
[08:01] <DasEi> Topy: using propitary drivers ?
[08:01] <jamil_1> yoshie, no idea
[08:02] <yoshie> jamil_1 is there a way to make the DVD show on the desktop or no?
[08:03] <jamil_1> yoshie, I havn't tried such thing before
[08:03] <yoshie> jamil_1 oh ok, is there somewhere you found this information at? so i can view it?
[08:03] <intmed> any app like httrack with good hui
[08:03] <intmed> gui
[08:04] <somethinginteres> Are workspaces saved after you exit a session?
[08:04] <DasEi> yoshie: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=447234
[08:04] <System-7> Hello, I was just wondering, how can I change the gnome menu logo in the new 10.04 distro? no effect on the logo.
[08:04] <Topy> DasEi: no (and it all worked before btw, it broke when i started messing with display managers)
[08:04] <jamil_1> yoshie, I don't think I have done much for you. You can use this if you are not already using it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[08:05] <Vig> somethinginteres: A Live session or a Guest session?
[08:05] <DasEi> Topy: have you got an /etc/X11/xorg.conf with content (gedit will show you) ?
[08:06] <kaushal> hi
[08:06] <kaushal> can someone please guide me about my post on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2010-July/223352.html ?
[08:06] <yoshie> jamil_1 awesome thanks, and for the record you have done more than I expected anyone too, so once again thank you ^^
[08:06] <Topy> DasEi: heh... it got lost somehow. but...wasnt xorg.conf deprecated or something?
[08:06] <jamil_1> yoshie, :)
[08:07] <troopperi> intmed: there is ubuntu version of httrack, but do you want use something else?
[08:08] <chepo> i got a amd64 but install ubuntu 9.10 32bit does that make a different?anybody and is 64bid better
[08:08] <DasEi> Topy: yes and no, it's empty by default, though filled by config again and can still be used, anyway, answer to previous question ?
[08:08] <Topy> DasEi: it doesnt exist
[08:08] <Topy> DasEi: but again: if i start gdm manually, everything works fine
[08:08] <Topy> as in, "sudo gdm"
[08:09] <DasEi> chepo: standard 32 handles max. 4 g ram, including graphics
[08:09] <chepo> is 64bid better for games do
[08:09] <intmed> troopperi: but it is command line, isn't it ?
[08:09] <troopperi> intmed: i check out...
[08:09] <chepo> like the graphics
[08:09] <DasEi> Topy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  ,  and also, which g-card do you use ?
[08:10] <Topy> DasEi: its an eeepc 701, so... whatever cheap intel chip they put in there
[08:10] <DasEi> chepo: my 64 runs fine, though there are few apps just available in 32 , little hassle to install
[08:10] <Goatee> I give up... maybe someday gwibber themes will make sense to me. right now it's just random....
[08:10] <Daniel12377> is there a log for remote desktop connextions ?
[08:10] <DasEi> chepo: ram/cpu ?
[08:11] <chepo> 3
[08:11] <chepo> 3gb
[08:11] <DasEi> Daniel12377: for tightvnc there is
[08:11] <Daniel12377> and for the default Remote Desktop ?
[08:11] <Topy> DasEi: and i tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg before, no effect
[08:11] <troopperi> intmed: its open on my Kubuntu at Konqueror and i can select languages etc.
[08:12] <DasEi> Topy: so try reconfiguring, after (will log you off) sudo service gdm restart
[08:12] <DasEi> Topy: changes will be seen after next X restart#
[08:12] <intmed> troopperi: you mean it has gui
[08:12] <troopperi> intmed: yep
[08:12] <troopperi> intmed: i install it at repos
[08:13] <Topy> DasEi: i was doing all of that from the commandline, with no x running, and i restartet afterwards
[08:13] <Topy> *restarted
[08:13] <DasEi>  chepo : kinda cpu ?
[08:14] <DasEi> topy: least there should be an xorg now, might need modlines for it
[08:14] <chepo> emachine
[08:14] <chepo> el1200
[08:15] <chepo> emachine
[08:15] <DasEi> chepo: stay with 32 then, there is also the possib of pae, case ram increases
[08:15] <DasEi> !pae
[08:15] <Vig> Topy: What DasEi says is on the mark. looks like it is all solved in Launchpad: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+questions?field.search_text=gdm+start+at+boot&field.sort=RELEVANCY&field.sort-empty-marker=1&field.actions.search=Search&field.language=en&field.language-empty-marker=1&field.status=OPEN&field.status=NEEDSINFO&field.status=ANSWERED&field.status=SOLVED&field.status-empty-marker=1
[08:15] <Hibchibbler> thune3: no luck, it didn't load after following those instructions.
[08:16] <chepo> k but 64bid is better 4 games ah like the graphics
[08:16] <Hibchibbler> thune3: i can successfully load it with insmod, and I can see its output with dmesg. but it won't auto load because i don't understand who/what/where does what with /etc/modules
[08:17] <somethinginteres> Vig: A live session
[08:17] <DasEi> vig: thanks, could you use tinyurl, can't call that link
[08:17] <DasEi> vig: http://tinyurl.com/
[08:18] <Topy> Vig: sorry, but i dont see a single post relevant to my problem there
[08:18] <chepo> we got a bet 32bid games or 64bit games wish one is better graphics
[08:18] <Vig> DasEi: My bad, pulled it straight from Launchpad, search Launchpad GDM it pops up.
[08:19] <AdvoWork> if i have an okish spec ubuntu pc, can i somehow make it so i can have multiple rdp connections coming in(from either windows or ubuntu) chances are there will be less than 10 connections, possibly 5 concurrent connections to this pc..(chances are the pc i want to do this on will be a virtual os)
[08:20] <Vig> somethinginteres: Any changes or configurations in a Live session are usually not saved, they can be, takes a while to learn, ...
[08:20] <Hibchibbler> thune3: off to try depmod -a
[08:20] <violinappren> AdvoWork: you have to actually test it to know
[08:20] <somethinginteres> Vig: What I'd like is to be able to have a 'work' workspace, a 'game' workspace etc
[08:20] <chepo> can anybody tell me witch one is better using 32bid or using 64bid on games.witch one got better graphics
[08:20] <AdvoWork> violinappren, is there a specific rdp server i should be considering?
[08:21] <Topy> can i somehow get more detailed information about what happens when X tries to start? is there a proper log anywhere?
[08:21] <DasEi> chepo: no, graphics are dependend of g-card and available drivers, the 64 comes in hand in adressing issues on more extended hardware
[08:22] <violinappren> AdvoWork: well not rdc, but did you check neatx? it's an NX server
[08:22] <intmed> i want to use the gprs connection on my mobile through bluetooth in pc.
[08:22] <Vig> somethinginteres: That can be done, not easily in LiveCD, but a csmm or gconf using Compiz can do that.
[08:22] <DasEi> Topy: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:22] <chepo> k thanks buddy
[08:23] <DasEi> Topy: also dmeg (pipe to textfile) and /var/log/syslog might reveal something
[08:23] <DasEi> dmesg*
[08:23] <somethinginteres> Vig: what about just a standard non-LiveCD session?
[08:24] <Vig> somethinginteres: Is definitely do-able.
[08:25] <System-7> Hello, how can I change the gnome menu logo in the new 10.04 distro? From the bland gray one to the old colorful one?

[08:25] <DasEi> somethinginteres: what do you want to achieve ?
[08:26] <banisterfiend> somethinginteres: this may sound premature but do you want to be BFFS ?
[08:26] <Vig> somethinginteres: Pulling it up now on the forums...

[08:27] <Error404NotFound> i remove evolution but there are still some packages left that has to do with evolution, when i try to remove them apt-get also include ubuntu-desktop in remove list: http://pastebin.com/qn3iFtBU
[08:27] <rww> Error404NotFound: evolution-data-server isn't specifically related to evolution, despite the name. It's a backend server used by rather a lot of GNOME. I'd recommend leaving it installed.
[08:27] <somethinginteres> DasEi: I just want to have a different workspace for what I do - like, games etc so that all of that can be on one desktop's workspace
[08:27] <DasEi> Error404NotFound: use apt-get autoremove to just clean uneeded packages
[08:28] <Vig> somethinginteres: Here is a wallpapoz one, it is basically the same idea, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17359
[08:28] <Error404NotFound> rww, what about others?
[08:28] <somethinginteres> Though, I am not trying to do it for LiveCD that was a mistake on my part :)
[08:28] <DasEi> somethinginteres: on the same system ? can you use compiz ?
[08:29] <k23z> how do I copy a file/directory with full path on Linux ?
[08:29] <DasEi> k23z: cp -r
[08:29] <rww> Error404NotFound: evolution-common, evolution-webcal, and nautilus-sendto should be removable. The rest look like EDS depends.
[08:29] <k23z> DasEi: no, that's recursive isn't it ? and it doesn't copy just one file, it copies the whole directory structure
[08:29] <somethinginteres> DasEi: yeah on the same system, yep I have compiz installed
[08:29] <somethinginteres> Vig: checking the link now
[08:29] <Error404NotFound> hmmm
[08:29] <rebirth> who ever sent me that link on fixing my sound in 10.04, it appears to have worked, so thanks!
[08:29] <banisterfiend> somethinginteres: well?
[08:29] <nio707> hello all
[08:30] <DasEi> k23z: right, then I didn't get you
[08:30] <nio707> need some help in ubuntu 8.04lts
[08:30] <banisterfiend> rebith: can you give me that link too? my sound is fucked too
[08:30] <violinappren> !help | nio707
[08:30] <Daniel12377> can i enable logs for vino-server ?
[08:30] <k23z> DasEi: ok
[08:30] <DasEi> somethinginteres: just use the cube ?
[08:30] <nio707> i cannot upgrade rdesktop1.5 to rdesktop 1.6
[08:31] <nio707> i downloaded the source and build   it
[08:31] <Vig> somethinginteres: And then there is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1516915&highlight=multiple+workspaces. It works well with KDE, you can install KDE widgets, programs and still use Gnome Desktop.
[08:31] <Error404NotFound> rww, nope, still tries to remove ubuntu-desktop :P
[08:31] <rww> banisterfiend: watch your language, please
[08:31] <banisterfiend> rebirth: i must warn you sometimes i get the impulse to rape. so if you do not give me that link i dont know exactly what could happen
[08:31] <rww> !guidelines > banisterfiend
[08:32] <rww> Error404NotFound: copy the command you're using and its output to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, and link the created page here
[08:32] <nio707> and when i tried to install using make install the rdesktop file is still old rdesktop1.5
[08:32] <AdvoWork> violinappren, never heard of neatx, you used it before?
[08:32] <Error404NotFound> rww, removing nautilus-sendto however allows me to remove evolution-common and the webcal package without removing others.
[08:32] <seidos> Error404NotFound, rww I had the same problem trying to remove evolution
[08:32] <rebirth> http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala
[08:33] <seidos> Error404NotFound, rww I gave up, I assumed there was a library that evolution uses that is necessary for ubuntu-desktop
[08:33] <DasEi> k23z: if you want to copy a file, you won't use -r , if you want the content of a dir w/o  subdirs, use asterisks.. or ask again ?
[08:33] <Error404NotFound> seidos, its just stupid how closely coupled a mail client could be...
[08:33] <rww> seidos: they are, I mentioned as much earlier :)
[08:33] <violinappren> AdvoWork: no
[08:33] <k23z> DasEi: just -a or --parents
[08:34] <violinappren> AdvoWork: but i've used NX and it's pretty fast
[08:34] <nio707> apt-get upgrade rdesktop donot update rdesktop and give the message that it is the latest i could not understand what is the problem in upgrading an application
[08:34] <Scotsman> how do I mount a RAM disk please
[08:34] <rww> Error404NotFound: again, evolution-data-server is related to the mail client only in that the mail client is why it exists. If you remove all of the packages with "evolution" in the name apart from the evolution-data-server and evolution-data-server-common ones, the mail client is gone.
[08:34] <AdvoWork> violinappren, NX is like a terminology or a package? excuse my ignorance
[08:35] <rww> other stuff in GNOME uses the EDS backend. It really isn't removable.
[08:35] <nio707> NX means no machine
[08:35] <violinappren> AdvoWork: NX is a protocol like RDC, neatx is a server implementation of it, there are clients for gnu/linux and windows
[08:35] <nio707> it is a terminal server project for linux
[08:35] <violinappren> nio707: then the repositories don't have a new version of rdesktop
[08:36] <violinappren> nio707: what version of ubuntu are you runnning?
[08:36] <nio707> what sould i do then should i upgrade my ubuntu to 10
[08:36] <Scotsman> how do I mount a RAM disk please
[08:37] <AdvoWork> violinappren, ok cool, basically my problem is this, internally at site A, run a web based quoting system/lots of data, internally its fast, externally(site B) sending data fast, receiving slow, considering making the clients at site b connect to a server here and use the web browser on a pc here, should be fast. what do you think?
[08:37] <Vig> nio9707: Make a backup

[08:39] <nio707> violinappren there is a bug in rdesktop 1.5 for ubuntu someone might have reported it how to find out and rectify this problem i need this desperately
[08:39] <thune3> System-7: i was offline so i don't know if you were answered. I'm on 9.10 (maybe it changed for 10.04) and the icon is /usr/share/icons/gnome/24x24/places/start-here.png which you can backup and replace.

[08:41] <om26er> :(
[08:41] <johngilbrough> violinappren, Thank you, I believe the real culprit that was interfering with my keystrokes was my installing tcsh which was required for getting a Brother network printer working.  Uninstalled tcsh, rebotted and everything is behaving now.  Again Thank You.

[08:43] <aaaoooaaa> hi guys, I have an instructional book that has an audio cd accompanying it; I tried to make a backup using brasero and it spit out a .toc + bin(i think) file . Just to confirm, i tried burning, using brasero, unto an empty cd , but it isnt being recognized. What should I do?
[08:43] <n0n00b> violinappren & DasEi: both those are extra tools that needs installation. how does one admin the upstart process without extra 3rd-part y apps? no internal app like `crontab -e`?
[08:44] <om26er> nio707, btw there is a new LTS out there too ;)

[08:44] <nio707> one more problem is that the window key in the keyboard donot work when i am connected to server 2003
[08:44] <violinappren> n0n00b: arrange the binary values on disk by hand
[08:44] <violinappren> johngilbrough: no i'm not
[08:45] <ceekays> DasEi: Thanks,  I will try installing Ubuntu Tweak
[08:45] <DasEi> n0n00b: that's update-rc.d , but to be honest, there had been many changes recently, which I havent followed up yet, will have to ask again for non GUI
[08:45] <bullgard> Is the proper way to retart the NetworkManager '~$ service networki-manager restart' or '~$ sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart'?
[08:45] <nio707> om26er is it possible to replace the rdesktop manually
[08:45] <bullgard> s/retart/restart/
[08:45] <n0n00b> violinappren & DasEi: this could be a very serious problem for unexperienced users....
[08:45] <violinappren> nio707: you could go to packages.ubuntu.com and download a newer version (packaged for a later distro version) and install it by hand .. but this may or may not work
[08:46] <nio707> i used ldd to find out the dependencies
[08:46] <AdvoWork> violinappren, any ideas if that would make an improvement? i assume it would, yet can't test
[08:46] <AdvoWork> *yet*
[08:46] <om26er> nio707, I dont know.

[08:47] <n0n00b> violinappren:  sysv-rc-conf should work well, thanks
[08:47] <violinappren> AdvoWork: it depends on the size of the data being tansferred.. but if you'd still go the remote desktop route, NX is compressed and very light on the network
[08:47] <violinappren> nio707: yes
[08:47] <DasEi> ceekays: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gwibber-daily/ppa
[08:47] <violinappren> n0n00b: you're welcome, always use the right tool for the job
[08:47] <DasEi> ceekays: that's the stable ppa
[08:48] <nio707> violinappren i downloaded the source file and build it the rdesktop file is working when  i run it but i doubt the samba share like printer and shound won't work in rdesktop
[08:48] <CkhiKuzad> rsk i get none and slow. so apparently its not.
[08:48] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: so why did you even ask?
[08:48] <DasEi> ceekays: then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak
[08:48] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: if you already knew the answear?
[08:48] <n0n00b> violinappren: that tool is the SysV runlevel config tool, which I can laready do well by hand. does it also apply settings to upstart?
[08:48] <violinappren> nio707: dont "doubt", try something to see if it actually works or not
[08:48] <CkhiKuzad> rsk, i did that command and got that.
[08:48] <AdvoWork> violinappren, ok thanks for the help, I think i need to do some proper testing
[08:49] <violinappren> n0n00b: upstart is backward compatible
[08:49] <ceekays> DasEi: Thanks.
[08:49] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: there is no possibility the output was "none and slow"
[08:49] <^Mostafa> HinHin, i install abode reader, but i can't run it, how can i do it?
[08:49] <^Mostafa>  i install abode reader, but i can't run it, how can i do it?
[08:50] <rsk> ask a 3rd time
[08:50] <CkhiKuzad> yeah i know that, rsk. the columns on the right all said none or slow. so cumulatively they all were none and slow.
[08:50] <n0n00b> violinappren: so by modifying /etc/rc?.d/S*daemon, pstart holors those changes?
[08:50] <violinappren> ^Mostafa: don't repeat your self, and what errors do you get when trying to run it?
[08:50] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: you just don't know howto read the output
[08:50] <iceroot> ^Mostafa: 1. please remove the ^ from your nick. 2. what does "can not run it" means? its giving an error or you dont know how to start it?
[08:50] <n0n00b> what about gdm? I want to disable it @ boot, but there is not /etc/rc2.d/S*gdm node
[08:50] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: don't presume things
[08:50] <^Mostafa> violinappren,  i don't know how to run it!
[08:51] <CkhiKuzad> rsk, my computer is 9 years old.
[08:51] <violinappren> ^Mostafa: find it in  the Applications menu
[08:51] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: so?
[08:51] <iceroot> ^Mostafa: acroread  in the shell or applicationsmenu
[08:51] <CkhiKuzad> (rsk still) so its likely that it isnt compatible.
[08:51] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: compatible with that?
[08:51] <CkhiKuzad> rsk: OpenGL.  i will pastebin the results from the command.
[08:51] <aaaoooaaa> hi guys, I have an instructional book that has an audio cd accompanying it; I tried to make a backup using brasero and it spit out a .toc + bin(i think) file . Just to confirm, i tried burning the resulting .toc unto an empty cd, using brasero, but upon reinsertion it isnt being recognized. What should I do?
[08:52] <iceroot> aaaoooaaa: the bin is containing the data
[08:52] <Mostafa> iceroot,  there is not any adobe in any place, i also use alt+F2 but i can't fine it in the list
[08:52] <aaaoooaaa> iceroot: ok so I should choose the .bin when burning?
[08:53] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: I use k3b or dd for imaging cd's
[08:53] <iceroot> Mostafa: dpkg -l acroread   is showing what?
[08:53] <iceroot> aaaoooaaa: correct
[08:53] <rapsli> I want do disable hpet in grub 2... all the instructions are for grub1 though
[08:54] <DarsVaeda> hi, i ssh to a server pubkey is send but not taken, no specific information given, can i get more information why the key is not taken?
[08:54] <DasEi> rapsli: hpet ?
[08:54] <rsk> DarsVaeda: not unless you have root on the server
[08:54] <rapsli> DasEi: it has to do with the power management
[08:55] <rapsli> DasEi: for example http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1269421
[08:55] <DarsVaeda> if i have?
[08:55] <DasEi> rapsli: you want to modify a kernel option then ?
[08:55] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: alright I think I found a tutorial on how to burn using dd
[08:55] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: by dd you can just dd if=dev/sr0 of=any.iso
[08:56] <rapsli> DasEi: I guess? I'm not a linux guru, but I'm having this issue, and google tells me that disabling hpet would solve the issue
[08:56] <CkhiKuzad> rsk: http://pastebin.com/2XPzZLR4
[08:56] <mawst> Is there a way to change the shortcuts in console so instead of alt+arrow left and right I can use my darn weechat/irssi window switching? :D
[08:56] <tawny> i have ubuntu installed with the windows program, should i install grub-pc when upgrading??
[08:57] <rsk> CkhiKuzad:  it can do openGL but it's one of the slowest cards ever produced
[08:57] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: why sr0 and not say cdrom0 ?
[08:57] <DasEi> rapsli: grub 2 is really different,  try to modify /etc/default/grub (backup the old one!!) , then sudo update-grub,  apart from it , there single files for own menu-entries located elsewhere
[08:57] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: 'cause dd does a block/sectorwise copy on a device
[08:58] <CkhiKuzad> *metalocalypse guitar riff*ing old computers!
[08:58] <DasEi> rapsli: there are single*...
[08:58] <rapsli> aha :) DasEi: looks better
[08:58] <CkhiKuzad> rsk, so in other words, if i use OpenGL, i will get buttloads of lag, like when i use KDE?
[08:58] <Intmed> Any alternative for nokia pc suite
[08:58] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: probably
[08:59] <rsk> CkhiKuzad: anything using the intelcard will be slow
[08:59] <tawny> ive installed ubuntu with wubi. should i install grub-pc when i do upgrades?
[08:59] <MaRk-I> rapsli: in terminal do:  gksu gedit etc/default/grub.conf     and add in the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash hpet=disable"     do sudo update-grub and reboot
[08:59] <tawny> :/
[08:59] <MakX> Are there any decent GUI download managers that can do scheduling?
[08:59] <CkhiKuzad> damn you, intel! i will ask my aunt if maybe she can get my a oldnew video card
[08:59] <rapsli> Mark-I: Oky
[08:59] <MakX> d4x is rubbish in my opinion, very hard to use
[09:00] <tawny> damn it
[09:00] <DasEi> rapsli: int /etc/grub.d/ you find files, in their headers their purpose is explained, if /etc/default/grub won't do the job, think of visiting #grub, too
[09:00] <DasEi> !grub2
[09:00] <tawny> anyone have a suggestion
[09:00] <tawny> ?'
[09:00] <MaRk-I> rapsli: the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=   is already added there so just add hpet=disable
[09:00] <aaaoooaaa> iceroot: just tried that, same crap
[09:00] <rapsli> MaRk-I: etc/default/grub.conf    is empty. is that normal?
[09:00] <aaaoooaaa> ill try dd now
[09:01] <iceroot> aaaoooaaa: first try to use a better language
[09:01] <DasEi> rapsli: yes, don't edit it, it's /etc/default/grub
[09:01] <tawny> IF I DONT INSTALL GRUB 2 WILL UBUNTU BOOT AFTER I RESTART????
[09:01] <aaaoooaaa> iceroot: huh?
[09:01] <DasEi> !caps
[09:02] <oCean_> tawny: quit the caps
[09:02] <rapsli> DasEi and MaRk-I ... which file should I edit now? grub or grub.conf?
[09:02] <tawny> !POOP
[09:02] <iceroot> aaaoooaaa: we dont need "crap" here
[09:02] <DasEi> rapsli: grub
[09:02] <mneptok> tawny: please calm down
[09:02] <MaRk-I> rapsli: try grub, find the line
[09:02] <violinappren> !guidelines | tawny
[09:02]  * tawny is calmm
[09:02] <aaaoooaaa> iceroot: wow...
[09:02] <tawny> fuck this
[09:02] <MaRk-I> rapsli: /etc/default/grub
[09:03] <mneptok> charming fellow
[09:03] <k1ng> tawny, no its will not start.... no grub == ubuntu
[09:03] <rapsli> oky. DasEi: made the modification. what's the worst thing that can happen?
[09:04] <Mostafa> iceroot,  i have wine, i wanna run IE, what should i do then?
[09:04] <aaaoooaaa> CAN I USE THE WORD CRAP in #ubuntu?
[09:04] <DasEi> rapsli: you did a backup, to grub_orig .. worst is you copy it back  :)
[09:04] <iceroot> aaaoooaaa: stop it
[09:04] <oCean_> aaaoooaaa: stop it please
[09:04] <aaaoooaaa> i guess not
[09:04] <aaaoooaaa> cool
[09:04] <iceroot> Mostafa: install windows in a virtual machine
[09:04] <rapsli> DasEi: but the system will still boot? ;)
[09:04] <DasEi> rapsli: rapsli . file modified, saved ?
[09:04] <Mostafa> iceroot,  you mean in wine ?
[09:04] <rapsli> yep.
[09:05] <iceroot> Mostafa: in virtualbox
[09:05] <rapsli> still have to do the update thing
[09:05] <DasEi> rapsli: should , or have onother entry , case mess up
[09:05] <MaRk-I> rapsli: sudo update-grub  and reboot
[09:05] <iceroot> Mostafa: but why you need the ie?
[09:05] <DasEi> rapsli: sudo update-grub
[09:05] <foureight84> how do you copy from xterm to firefox or gedit?
[09:05] <rapsli> DasEi: ... oky. let's try. ... be back in a minute
[09:05] <foureight84> seems that i can only copy and paste within xterm
[09:06] <DasEi> foureight84: middlemouse
[09:06] <Mostafa> iceroot,  my university site just open  with IE :(
[09:06] <foureight84> DasEi: yes that pastes into xterm
[09:06] <foureight84> but i want to paste what i copied in xterm to firefox or gedit
[09:06] <DasEi> foureight84: and not a marked text back ? mine does
[09:06] <violinappren> Mostafa: google ie4linux
[09:07] <oCean_> foureight84: for me, middlemouse also pastes from xterm to firefox or whatever
[09:07] <oCean_> !afk > NightKhaos|Away
[09:07] <foureight84> weird it doesn't work like that for me
[09:07] <DasEi> Mostafa: or get a addon for ff, cheating header information
[09:07] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: use "user agent switcher in firefox" and make it look like it's IE  unless you need activeX you need to install ie with wine
[09:07] <Mostafa> DasEi,  how i can do that?
[09:07] <foureight84> DasEi: wait it does
[09:07] <DasEi> Mostafa: see MaRk-I
[09:07] <iceroot> Mostafa: change the university if the website only working with ie
[09:08] <DasEi> foureight84: ;-)
[09:08] <MaRk-I> iceroot: lol
[09:08] <DasEi> hehe
[09:08] <foureight84> DasEi: but no way i can use ctrl+v? hehe problem is i am on my laptop and i don't ahve a middle mouse gotta click both left and right
[09:08] <Mostafa> iceroot,  looooooool goood idea
[09:09] <mawst> Anyone?
[09:09] <thune3> foureight84: shift-insert often works
[09:09] <Mostafa> MaRk-I,  could you pls tell me what to do?
[09:09] <mawst> Someone here has to use irssi or weechat in console... and know how to let them have their shortcuts
[09:09] <foureight84> thune3: yep it sorta works
[09:10] <rapsli> DasEi: ... system is still running ;)
[09:10] <rapsli> let's see if it fixed the issue
[09:10] <violinappren> mawst: what's your question?
[09:10] <foureight84> shift insert pastes into xterm but when i do it in firefox it pastes something else i had copied outside of xterm
[09:10] <DasEi> rapsli: and no errors ? well, modify on ..
[09:10] <DJones> mawst: I use irssi, what shortcuts are you looking for
[09:10] <Mostafa> MaRk-I,  hello :) where i should go in my firefox?
[09:11] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: just open firefox, then click tools, addons
[09:11] <rapsli> DasEi: Nope. everything normal... I hope there are no more of those hpet errors. they usually come after some time
[09:11] <MaRk-I> and look for "agent switcher"
[09:11] <DasEi> foureight84: I don't remmber straight, but there was a possib to install an alternate clipboard, as terml and other apps sometimes won't, not sure for now
[09:11] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: or "user agent switcher"
[09:11] <foureight84> okay thanks DasEi i'll look into that issue
[09:12] <mawst> DJones: ubuntu makes alt+arrow (l/r) switch consoles
[09:12] <foureight84> no worries... i just thought i'd try irssi on xterm but i'll probably go back to normal terminal
[09:12] <DasEi> rapsli: fine then, I had my fun today with drdy errors on a crypted fake raid.. solved
[09:12] <mawst> DJones: but that's the shortcut to switch buffers in irssi etvc
[09:12] <Mostafa> MaRk-I,  i find it
[09:12] <mawst> I want ubuntu to let go of those shortcuts so I can use them in my irc client
[09:12] <foureight84> irssi is probably the coolest irc client i have ever used
[09:12] <rapsli> DasEi: I'm starting to really love linux. Only been working for like half a year with it
[09:13] <mawst> foureight84: try weechat
[09:13] <mawst> :P
[09:13] <foureight84> mawst: you can just do xterm -e irssi
[09:13] <nisstyre65> xchat 4 lyfe
[09:13] <foureight84> mawst: create a custom launcher with that command
[09:13] <mawst> I'm using it in the real console
[09:13] <mawst> Not a terminal
[09:13] <nisstyre65> mawst: you mean a tty ?
[09:13] <mawst> right
[09:14] <mawst> tty switches with alt+right or alt+left
[09:14] <mawst> Which is the worst thing I've ever encountered in ubuntu
[09:14] <mawst> There has to be a way to change this
[09:14] <foureight84> mawst: is weechat a clone of irssi?
[09:15] <Mostafa> MaRk-I,  tnxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[09:15] <mawst> eh I thought that at first foureight84, but no.
[09:15] <Mostafa> :D
[09:15] <Mostafa> it works
[09:15] <Mostafa> :D
[09:15] <FloodBot4> Mostafa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:15] <DJones> mawst: I'm not sure about the answer to that, I'm using it through screen and either ssh or putty, alt + l/r arrow just cycles through the channels for me
[09:15] <mawst> DJones: weird.
[09:15] <foureight84> mawst: i'll give that a try
[09:15] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: yw
[09:15] <mawst> foureight84: make sure you try the buffer addon
[09:15] <oCean_> foureight84: doesn't <shift><insert> paste like middlemouse would do?
[09:15] <Mostafa> floodBot4 sorry
[09:15] <MaRk-I> one X will suffice
[09:15] <abhijit> hi
[09:15] <mawst> foureight84: I have a tight setup with a channel / server / nicklist
[09:15] <Mostafa> it was just a big tnx
[09:15] <Mostafa> :)
[09:15] <mawst> Looks like xchat in text mode
[09:16] <foureight84> oCean_: shift insert does paste but there seems to be two different clipboard that it uses depending on where you are running the command
[09:16] <oCean_> foureight84: ok
[09:16] <foureight84> oCean_: in xterm it pastes what i copied in xterm, but in other gnome apps it pastes something else
[09:17] <Mostafa> MaRk-I,  just one more small problem, i install adobe reader but i can't see it in my applications list, where i cann find , and run it
[09:17] <DasEi> Mostafa: either doubleclick a pdf or in trml adobereader Blah.pdf
[09:18] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: there should be an icon on your desktop, or just open any pdf file and adobe will popup
[09:18] <Mostafa> ok
[09:18] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: or applications/office
[09:18] <DasEi> Mostafa: in trml tab will complete filenames
[09:19] <CppIsWeird> just for a sanity check, i ran diff -rqd /dir1 /dir2, and it didnt report anything, this means that those directories are EXACTLY the same byte for byte?
[09:20] <b3wbs> guys, i am on ubuntu 10.04 and want to dual boot with windows for an application. i just went to back up my grub file (/boot/grub/menu.lst) and found that menu.lst does not exist! where do i find it these days?
[09:20] <lunavorax> Bonjour tout le monde
[09:20] <foureight84> mawst: hmm weechat isn't bad. but i'm going to stick with irssi for now. i just got the notify to work yesterday :D
[09:20] <Mostafa> :D i love this place, problem solve as easy as drinking a glass of water
[09:20] <violinappren> !grub2 | b3wbs
[09:20] <abhijit> !grub2 | b3wbs it dotn exists in grub 2
[09:20] <kriss3d> Uhmm for some reason i cant remember anything right now.. Where do i find the settings for Work space in ubuntu 10.04 ? i think ive lost it somhow
[09:21] <mawst> heheh
[09:21] <violinappren> !fr | lunavorax
[09:21] <b3wbs> thanks guys!
[09:21] <lunavorax> oops sorry
[09:22] <Mostafa> MaRk-I, , what is the best program for editing  pdf files
[09:22] <MaRk-I> Mostafa: go to synaptic and search pdf editor, choose the one you like
[09:22] <DasEi> b3wbs: grub2 , there is , lot's more config files now, /etc/default/grub the one to edit
[09:22] <DasEi> !grub2
[09:23] <mawst> Ok so loadkeys is the answer.
[09:23] <mawst> Anyone know how to pass loadkeys vars in a startup script? :D
[09:23] <lunavorax> I'm looking for a software that can send me a specific email every hours. I can't find a software that does that.
[09:24] <mawst> lunavorax: couldn't you just chron sendmail or something?
[09:25] <lunavorax> I don't know what is chron sendmail ?
[09:25] <DasEi> mawst: or just jetting , assisstant technologies, set keys/shortcuts ? they are up at next restart then
[09:26] <oCean_> !cron | lunavorax
[09:26] <DasEi> !cron | lunavorax
[09:27] <lunavorax> Hum ok that looks very complicated but I'll try to get some documentation
[09:27] <matt__> Okay, I know you guys have probably got this one a million times. I have an Nvidia 8800GT and a monitor that supports 1650x1080, but it's not an option in the Nvidia X options. Halp?
[09:27] <DasEi> lunavorax: it's not too hard, there are are cron hourly, daily, weekly, real to too hard
[09:27] <DasEi> not*
[09:27] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: hey I tried the dd thing but its giving me an error
[09:27] <oCean_> lunavorax: it's not complicated at all. Feel free to check in here again if you can't figure it out!
[09:28] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: read error on the cd ?
[09:28] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: dd: opening `dev/sr0': No such file or directory
[09:29] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: check mount for the correct devicename
[09:30] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: and would be /dev/sr0
[09:30] <mawst> DasEi: well setting with loadkeys fixes the shortcut problem but from what I'm told they reset after rebooting
[09:30] <danb> hey i need help
[09:30] <mawst> Now I have the problem of having to run a script as sudo at boot
[09:30] <mawst> heh
[09:31] <danb> can someone help me translate run.bat to run.sh
[09:31] <oCean_> mawst: /etc/rc.local does that
[09:31] <kraut> moin
[09:31] <oCean_> danb: that depends on what is run.bat
[09:31] <danb> a rsps run.bat
[09:31] <mawst> ahaaaa
[09:31] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: what type of filesystem should it be? I dont think IM seeing anything resembling an Audio cd ... unless instructional audio cd have some special filtype ... http://pastebin.com/ZDZChApx
[09:31] <danb> basic dos but i dont know shell
[09:32] <oCean_> danb: well, this is not really the place for that. There is lots of documentation out there.. and #bash ofcourse..
[09:32] <steveire> Has anyone run that apport-collect thing?
[09:33] <GutZuWiSSeN> hmm.. how can i reinstall eth0 ?
[09:33] <giampiero> Hello ,I downloaded a .jar file an when  tried to run it I was told it wasn't executable, so I made it executable and installed the software. Now I wonder if that could have been some sort of malware. Is there a way to find out?
[09:33] <DasEi> aaaoooaaa: seems like cd isn't mounted right know, click under places and repeat mount-command
[09:33] <steveire> Is it interactive? Do I see the info it sends back before it is sent?
[09:33] <matt__> Can anyone help out in editing my xorg-conf to allow 1680x1050?
[09:33] <Church> hmm. has anyone experienced when using vnc remotely stuck alt key? is there any way to unstuck it without restarting remote X server?
[09:33] <rsk> giampiero: you can only presume, use your wit
[09:34] <DasEi> steveire: you mean about apt's package usage ?
[09:34] <Church> (using x11vnc to attach to running X11 server and accessing via tightvnc client)
[09:34] <giampiero> rsk: what do you mean?
[09:34] <rsk> giampiero: i don't know howto explain it better... i meant what i said
[09:34] <giampiero> rsk: so how can I find out?
[09:34] <rsk> giampiero: there is no sure way to find out
[09:35] <giampiero> rsk: online scanners?
[09:35] <srthmb> giampero: How are you at RE? ;)
[09:35] <rsk> giampiero: sure that's an option
[09:35] <giampiero> srthmb: what do yo mean?
[09:35] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: alright remounted, and just to be sure, played one of the audio files in the cd. http://pastebin.com/xkDViXAg
[09:35] <srthmb> giampiero, reverse engineering. :P
[09:36] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: the files have little "x"'s on their icons...might this be the issue?
[09:36] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: on the wave files
[09:36] <giampiero> srthmb: don't know what it is.
[09:36] <srthmb> giampiero, my poor attempt at a joke.
[09:36] <oCean_> giampiero: the download not being executable has nothing to do with it being malware..
[09:37] <danb> oCean
[09:37] <fungo_> how to increase the number of loop device in Ubuntu 10.04?
[09:37] <oCean_> giampiero: regarding the contents of the jar.. well, I don't know about that.
[09:37] <kriss3d> Would anyone happen to know how to add work space in ubuntu 10.04 ? i cant find it at all. Seems i need two work spaces to have thunderbird running all the time. since it cant minimize to tray
[09:37] <giampiero> oCean:thank you for the serious reply. I know it doesn't necessarily have to be, but it could. So I wanted to fid out.
[09:37] <steveire> DasEi: Someone asked me to run apport-collect bug-number and it asks me for authorization.
[09:37] <srthmb> So, can anyone help me with my resolution problem?
[09:38] <markitoxs> is there any option to MERGE two directories with rsync? or with scp?
[09:38] <steveire> But it doesn't tell me what it wants to be authorized to do. It just wants full authorization.
[09:38] <steveire> It also doesn't tell me if I will have an opportunity to see what is sent before it is sent
[09:39] <Topy> hm... ok, i now learned a lot about how the ubuntu boot process works. and, umh... my solution to the problem is... to replace /etc/init.d/gdm with a file that contains gdm followed by esac, nothing else :)
[09:39] <giampiero> oCean_:so what would you do if you were in my shoes?
[09:39] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: yeah?no?maybe?
[09:39] <Topy> it seems the whole error checking part of /etc/init.d/gdm is somewhat broken
[09:39] <danb> what other forms of linux is good besides ubuntu like whats a more complex version and how do i get it so i can keep ubuntu
[09:40] <rsk> danb: define more complex
[09:40] <danb> more coding involved
[09:40] <rsk> danb: you can code 24/7 in regular ubuntu
[09:40] <quag7_> Hello #ubuntu!
[09:40] <Topy> danb: your question doesnt make much sense, but you are probably looking for something like fedora or gentoo :)
[09:40] <Topy> as in, "doesnt do all the work for you"
[09:40] <geirha> danb: You could always try LFS, either by installing it in a virtual machine or along side ubuntu (dual boot). Teaches you alot about linux.
[09:41] <oCean_> giampiero: I only download software from sources I trust (e.g. ubuntu repositories, and other providers if've worked with). If I don't know if I can trust a download, I would try it first in a virtualbox installation. AlsoL malware comes in many forms. Lucky us using linux: we don't really have virus issues
[09:41] <Topy> geirha: hey, i didnt know about LFS, that looks very interesting!
[09:41] <danb> well im looking for one with better performance cuz i have a slow pc and i want one that has better performance but more coding do you still think lfs is the one im looking for?
[09:41] <kriss3d> danb,  well. uhmmm linux is linux. The diffrence is pretty must mostly how it handles packages and what software goes along with it
[09:41] <rsk> danb: yes get LFS
[09:42] <danb> kk where can i dl and one know ?
[09:42] <rsk> danb: first hit on google

[09:42] <geirha> danb: LFS is linux from scratch, you make it from scratch, tailoring it to your needs.
[09:42] <srthmb>  Can anyone help me enable 1650x1080 on my desktop?
[09:42] <bullgard> Is the proper way to restart the NetworkManager '~$ service networki-manager restart' or '~$ sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart'?
[09:42] <giampiero> oCean_: this I also do, but now that the damage,'s done, how can I find out if my machine is infected?
[09:42] <kriss3d> danb,  well http://distrowatch.com/ and take your pick
[09:42] <Topy> danb: LFS looks great to learn more about linux, but if what you are looking for is a useable system that simply has lower hardware requirements maybe you should look at damn small linux or one of those... generally, look at distrowatch.com
[09:42] <danb> wait wtf thats way more coding then i know now im scared
[09:42] <geirha> danb: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/
[09:43] <oCean_> danb: other linux distributions are also not the topic for this channel. Feel free to join #ubunut-offtopic for such chat
[09:43] <danb> sorry oCean
[09:43] <oCean_> danb: also mind your language in this channel please
[09:43] <danb> sorry again lol
[09:43] <danb> thanks for help tho guys

[09:44] <aaaoooaaa> DasEi: looks like im not alone : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6509.html
[09:44] <danb> omg how many people are going to say that lol
[09:45] <oCean_> giampiero: No clue, sorry. Don't know what it "alledgedly" damaged.
[09:46] <danb> but bye guys i do mean it thanks for your time
[09:46] <giampiero> oCean_; Ok, thanks all the same.
[09:49] <srthmb> Can anyone assist in enabling 1650x1080 on my desktop? There is no option in my nvidia x server and I'm afraid I'll have to edit my xorg-conf
[09:50] <MaRk-I> aaaoooaaa: on that link you posted search for "dutch_gecko" read what he says
[09:50] <CppIsWeird> i just recompiled a kernel, however when i try to use it i get "invalid magic number" how fix?
[09:51] <aaaoooaaa> MaRk-I: yeah i read that, but since I bought this book, doesnt that mean that I am entitled to make a copy for my own backup?
[09:51] <beanage> srthmb, did you click detect displays?
[09:51] <srthmb> beanage, Yep.
[09:51] <aaaoooaaa> MaRk-I: and is there a tool that will facilitate this?
[09:51] <MaRk-I> aaaoooaaa: are you entitled? maybe is the disc copy protected? then not
[09:51] <Terminus> hello. how can i get "d-i passwd/user-password-crypted password" to work when preseeding? i tried using "echo 'foo'|mkpasswd -s -m sha-512" to generate it but it didn't work.
[09:52] <srthmb> beanage, I tried putting the resolution under the "advanced" tab in the nvidia x server settings and it worked, now my desktop is expanded beyond the sixe ogf my monitor
[09:52] <aaaoooaaa> MaRk-I: so even if I purchased it, i still wouldnt necessarily be entitled to make a copy?
[09:52] <srthmb> size of my monitor*
[09:52] <srthmb> aaaoooaaa: I think the rule of thumb is you're allowed one back-up for personal use only.
[09:53] <aaaoooaaa> eventhough
[09:53] <aaaoooaaa> srthmb: thats what im trying to do
[09:53] <aaaoooaaa> i dont want to depend on the cd
[09:53] <beanage> srthmb, whats it say under panning:?
[09:53] <srthmb> beanage, let me take a look, one moment.
[09:53] <aaaoooaaa> its clunky and I only have a laptop, running the cd drive eats up alot of battery
[09:54] <srthmb> beanage, where would I see the panning options at? I'm sorry.
[09:54] <beanage> aaaoooaaa, so rip the cd and call it a day.. whats the problem?
[09:54] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: Ive tried and tried and tried...its NOT ripping!
[09:55] <srthmb> beanage, Oh, that's where I put it 1650x1080. that's what's under panning. I put that in manually.
[09:55] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: ive tried sound juicer, brasero, "dd"
[09:55] <rsk> aaaoooaaa: so it's probably drm'ed, be carefull with what you buy.
[09:55] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: all lemons
[09:55] <aaaoooaaa> rsk: well i didnt know my book would have drm on it
[09:55] <aaaoooaaa> rsk: btw how do I know for sure
[09:55] <rsk> aaaoooaaa: mein either, but you bought it.
[09:56] <beanage> srthmb, in nvidia x server settings ->  xserver display config ->  Display tab
[09:56] <aaaoooaaa> rsk: how do I know if a disk is DRM'ed?
[09:56] <rsk> look for the word "sony"
[09:56] <beanage> aaaoooaaa, what is it?
[09:56]  * airtonix moans seductively at rsk
[09:56] <srthmb> beanage, I input 1680x1050 manually and that didn't do anything but expand my screen haha
[09:56] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: whatdya mean?
[09:56] <beanage> aaaoooaaa, what is on the CD?
[09:57] <airtonix> rsk, to be fair that's not enough to determine DRM
[09:57]  * airtonix hides
[09:57] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: oh audio tracks, its a guitar-instructional book
[09:57] <beanage> srthmb,  what monitor do you have? brand and model?
[09:57] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: .wave files
[09:57] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, if you look on the cover you should see an isbn...
[09:58] <srthmb> One second, I have to look that up, it's an LG.
[09:58] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: cd's have isbns? i thought only books did
[09:58] <beanage> aaaoooaaa,  Have you looked for the CD under piratebay or something of the like?
[09:58] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, i'm pretty sure it's an isbn (or at least a barcode number)
[09:58] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: no...i dont see why i should...
[09:58] <arnoldas> aliio?
[09:59] <beanage> aaaoooaaa, it's all about the simplist solution.
[09:59] <srthmb> beanage, I'm pretty sure it's a LG L226WT-BF 22-inch Widescreen
[09:59] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, i remember that all audio cds have this unique code that identifies it with services like cddb
[09:59] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix:  i dont think its an isbn(i know the book has one) but there is a code on the disk
[10:00] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: hl00695068 is the number
[10:00] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, http://www.alphamusicaustin.com/product_info.php?cPath=163_164_165&products_id=14063 ?
[10:00] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: yup thats it
[10:00] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, you might be able to search with that number to determine it's drm status
[10:01] <airtonix> its*
[10:01] <beanage> aaaoooaaa, what error are you getting back from sound juicer?
[10:01]  * airtonix lols at the isbn
[10:01] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: nothing...it just closes
[10:01] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: oh wait, how do i check the log
[10:02] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, is it a dvd or cd  ?
[10:02] <phlak_user> hi
[10:02] <srthmb> beanage, any ideas? My monitor and video card support the resolution.
[10:02] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: pretty sure its a cd
[10:03] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: yeah its only 600mbs
[10:03] <hareldvd> Can't save photos from my Cannon camera anymore. Any idea?
[10:03] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, ok
[10:03] <Guest2236> hi
[10:04] <matsalted> how do i refer to a usb drive in the command line?
[10:04] <aaaoooaaa> beanage: this is the soundjuicer output: http://pastebin.com/aDwYZ5yd
[10:04] <beanage> srthmb, yeah sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange
[10:05] <srthmb> beanage, ddcprobe not found?
[10:05] <phlak_user> matsalted: if it is mounted, it will be in /media
[10:05] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and mpg321 yet ?
[10:05] <oCean_> matsalted: as soon as it is plugged in, you'll see something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/464431/ in 'dmesg' output
[10:06] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: let me check
[10:06] <phlak_user> matsalted: else it should be one of /dev/sdb? where ?=1,2,3 etc
[10:06] <matsalted> ok, ill try that
[10:06] <oCean_> matsalted: on cmdline use "df" to see if and where it got mounted, probably /media. In cmdline, you would "cd /media/<usbvolumename>"
[10:06] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, and can you at least play the audio cd in a media player ?
[10:07] <srthmb> beanage, did you make a typo? apparently, that command does not exist.
[10:07] <airtonix> srthmb, what command did you type ?
[10:07] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: yup works with rythmbox
[10:08] <matsalted> thanks folks!:)
[10:08] <srthmb> airtonix, sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange
[10:08] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, doesn't rhythmbox have a disc ripper ?
[10:08] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: yes...let me try that
[10:08] <airtonix> srthmb, tip : run ddcprobe by itself and you will be told how to install it
[10:09] <airtonix> (if it in fact exists as part of a package in the repos)
[10:09] <srthmb> airtonix, found it. Installing that package
[10:09] <phlak_user> !info ddcprobe
[10:10] <srthmb> !info xresprobe
[10:11] <srthmb> beanage, greping monitorrange didnt provide results, do you just want me to pastebin the output?
[10:11] <j0rd> anyone know how to extend the DNS timeout for NetworkManager to something larger than 45 seconds. I can't figure it out and sometimes the DNS servers i use take longer than 45 seconds
[10:11] <tuxrocks> hi..i am on lucid ...my touchpad of lappy used to work on initial install...but after update the mouse pointer freezes after login on any user...i am having acer 5738..pls help...only external mouse is working
[10:12] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: hey how do i check the default rip location in rythmbox, you know/.
[10:12] <G_G> :-*
[10:12] <tuxrocks> j0rd: its sometihing to do with resolv.ocnf
[10:12] <tuxrocks> *conf
[10:12] <srthmb> airtonix, heres the output of that, any idea how to enable 1650x1080? http://pastebin.com/TRjquKxj
[10:12] <j0rd> tuxrocks: sorry, instead of DNS i mean dhcp
[10:13] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: nevermind its home apparently, ill try it and let you know
[10:13] <tuxrocks> j0rd: try man dhclient
[10:13] <G_G> I just installed 10.04
[10:13] <G_G> IT ROCKS!
[10:13] <j0rd> tuxrocks: takes longer than 45 seconds for DHCP server to get me an IP.  It's driving me nuts.
[10:14] <aaaoooaaa> airtonix: seems to be doing something
[10:14] <airtonix> srthmb, i'm not really sure what you're having problems with or what you're trying to achieve (i assume set a resolution on the screen?)
[10:14] <j0rd> tuxrocks: /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf is set to timeout 60; but that doesn't change it
[10:14] <eventyret> How can i install java on x64 ubuntu for firefox 3.6.6 ?
[10:15] <srthmb> airtonix, yes, that's exactly it. My video card and monitor are fully capable of running 1680x1050 but the options are nowhere to be found.
[10:15] <airtonix> aaaoooaaa, sorry i can't be of more help... my netbook doesn't have a cdrom and my desktop computer dvd drive died last week :(
[10:15] <tuxrocks> j0rd:go to terminal...type dhclient wlan0
[10:15] <begH8ck> @eventyret: sudo aptitude search java
[10:15] <cosimo_> hi
[10:15] <j0rd> tuxrocks: i need to fix networkmanager
[10:15] <cosimo_> big problem here.... i get smoothly t the KDM, i try to login, just when the sesion spalsh thingy come up, my scren goes black, the purple,  the green then yellow and then     just a bunch of columns of difretet colors. The computer freezes and i end up hacing to reboot manually
[10:15] <begH8ck> just look for the correct package
[10:15] <airtonix> srthmb, and you've installed the nvidia binary drivers ?
[10:15] <j0rd> tuxrocks: i need to fix what ever DHCP client NetworkManager is using
[10:15] <begH8ck> then sudo aptitude install <package>
[10:15] <j0rd> tuxrocks: because I'd like to continue to use network manager
[10:15] <srthmb> airtonix, I installed the nvidia drivers from the restricted drivers manager.
[10:16] <phlak_user> j0rd: i think nm uses avahi
[10:16] <begH8ck> the jre for FF should then be installed automatically
[10:16] <tuxrocks> can you connect using n/w manager
[10:16] <j0rd> phlak_user: got a man page for that?
[10:16] <eventyret> begH8ck: sorry i never done this tried and i just get all of the things that gives the name java ?
[10:16] <airtonix> begH8ck, im not sure that searching apt requires sudo
[10:16] <begH8ck> give me a sec
[10:17] <phlak_user> j0rd: hang on, i think it just handles dns; look at man avahi-daemon
[10:17] <airtonix> srthmb, ok and when you installed them did you then restart the computer ?
[10:17] <begH8ck> searching doesn't require sudo but install should
[10:17] <j0rd> phlak_user: just did/ no mention of dhcp, which is why i asked
[10:17] <srthmb> airtonix, yeah, I'm staring at NVIDIA X Server Settings now.
[10:17] <tuxrocks> j0rd: change your dns server in resolv.conf or in router properties if any
[10:17] <tuxrocks> try google dnd <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:17] <airtonix> srthmb, did you run it with sudo ? (gksudo nvidia-settings)
[10:17] <tuxrocks> dns
[10:18] <j0rd> tuxrocks: my DNS works fine. I'm looking to change the DHCP timeout for NetworkManager
[10:18] <j0rd> from 45 seconds to something else
[10:18] <airtonix> srthmb, not that its necessary
[10:18] <srthmb> airtonix, Yep.
[10:18] <phlak_user> j0rd: it is dhclient ( a ps -fe| grep dhclient confirms)
[10:18] <iamy_china> Hi, there. I am using ubuntu 10.04 on a laptop, and I got a powerdown problem, anyone here can help me on this please?
[10:18] <NBZ4live> Hi @ all
[10:18] <phlak_user> j0rd: controlled by this file --> /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action
[10:18] <j0rd> phlak_user: /sbin/dhclient -d -sf /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action -pf /var/run/dhclient-wlan0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient-882495fd-c20f-4a97-831f-729a3487e8ca-wlan0.lease -cf /var/run/nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf wlan0 ..... ahh. I see it
[10:18] <airtonix> srthmb, and when your machine booted up, just before you reached the login screen did you see the fullscreen nvidia logo ?
[10:19] <j0rd> phlak_user: i see it's pointint to it's own config files. Thanks. I'll fig around
[10:19] <srthmb> airtonix, the highest res I can get is 1360x760? And I do not remember seeing one.
[10:19] <begH8ck> just open a terminal and type in "aptitude search java"
[10:19] <airtonix> srthmb, if you do not see one it means your drivers are not being used
[10:19] <srthmb> airtonix, how do I see if they're being used
[10:19] <Krenari> hey guys, i want to know what i can use to mount .bin .cue file ?
[10:19] <aarizona> hello
[10:20] <aarizona> hai
[10:20] <iamy_china> Any one help me please?
[10:20] <wildbat> is there a program that can edit/ merge pdfs into one ?
[10:20] <NBZ4live> I'm searching for Xorg.conf. I have 4 displays with 2 NVIDIA videocards. Maybe someone have a good Xorg config file with compiz support?
[10:20] <aarizona> hello iamy
[10:20] <phlak_user> iamy_china: whats the problem with power down?
[10:20] <airtonix> srthmb, first i would uninstall from "hardware drivers" the nvidia drivers and then investigate using the nvidia drivers ppa
[10:20] <j0rd> phlak_user: timeout in that file is set to 60, looks like my /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf ...but when i check my syslog on new IP attempt i see "NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (wlan0) Beginning DHCP transaction (timeout in 45 seconds)"
[10:21] <airtonix> srthmb, but before you even do that , you need to ensure that your video card is supported by the drivers
[10:21] <srthmb> airtonix, nvidia drivers ppa?
[10:21] <cheater99> hi guys
[10:21] <j0rd> phlak_user: and then if i can't get an IP  in 45 seconds, it times out and I can't connect. I have to sit and retry until it's under 45 seconds
[10:21] <hareldvd> Can't save photos from my Cannon camera anymore. Any idea?
[10:21] <ross__> what's the command for changing password
[10:21] <phlak_user> j0rd: did you check whether the same value is in /var/run/nm-dhclient-wlan0.conf
[10:21] <ross__> how do you change  your password in the terminal
[10:21] <tuxrocks> j0rd: have you tried dhclient.conf
[10:21] <j0rd> phlak_user: ya, it's set to 60 second
[10:21] <iamy_china> aarizona: It can't power down it self. I have to press the power button for a few seconds.
[10:21] <phlak_user> j0rd: replace wlan0 with your interface
[10:21] <j0rd> tuxrocks: i'm using dhclient.
[10:21] <cheater99> after i conduct a search in nautilus, i would like to select one of the found files and open the dir it's in, what's the best way to do that?
[10:21] <Lantizia> !nopaste
[10:21] <llutz> ross__: passwd
[10:21] <Lantizia> !paste
[10:22] <phlak_user> j0rd: its commented out on my conf; check your file. if it has a ';' then the line isnt considered
[10:22] <NBZ4live> Here is my actual xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/rauYvRFv
[10:23] <NBZ4live> It works, but very slow and without Compiz support
