[00:00] <ResQue> thanks guys downloading some of them now
[00:00] <bc81> gmg: if you're using network manager, right-click the applet, edit connections, choose your connection, edit, enter password when prompted, check "connect automatically"
[00:00] <sacarlson> gmg: I'm not sure about network manager but I think you could do it by modifying /etc/network/interfaces file,  I wonder if wicd will do it?
[00:00] <JeffCBR> Thanks. I read that shred doesn't work right with ext3. Is that true for ext4?
[00:01] <ResQue> JeffCBR, what are you looking todo secure delete files?
[00:02] <JeffCBR> ResQue: I was just reading man shread.
[00:02] <gmg> I did that but it doesn't automaticly recreate the Ad-Hoc network. But it automatic connect to a other access point
[00:02] <JeffCBR> man shread
[00:02] <JeffCBR> man shred!
[00:02] <JeffCBR> Is journaling enable by default with ext4 in Ubuntu?
[00:03] <ResQue> JeffCBR, i see, secure-delete is very useful
[00:03] <gmg> I need to recreate a wireless internet sharing network automaticly when a pc restarts
[00:03] <bc81> !ext4
[00:03] <nRy> ohsix: how are you sure that the controller will work
[00:03] <rww> JeffCBR: yes
[00:03] <nRy> OCZ said it will not work without the special drivers they made
[00:03] <almoxarife> I have cron.daily jobs starting at 15.30 my time, I rather they start between 00-03 my time, how do I make that happen?
[00:03] <gmg> In Ad-Hoc mode
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> JeffCBR: may help: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/tools-to-delete-files-securely-in-ubuntu-linux.html
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> JeffCBR: yes ext4 is journalized
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> JeffCBR: ext2 is not, ext3 is just ext2 with a journal
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: change the cron. If it's cron'd as your user run: crontab -e   if its as root use: sudo crontab -e
[00:05] <livingwithrats> elp
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: or you can use gnome-schedule for a gui (run with gksudo for root crons)
[00:07] <almoxarife> ActionParsnip: gnome-schedule changes cron ? or is an added process?
[00:07] <dandaman> quick question
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: its a gui to cron afaik
[00:07] <dandaman> i want to know what folder bzr is installed in
[00:07] <gmg> can anyone else help me how to wake a pc with bluetooth while in suspend mode?
[00:07] <dandaman> is there a command i can use?
[00:07] <rww> dandaman: whereis bzr
[00:07] <dandaman> i need to change my authentication.conf file
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> almoxarife: Gnome-schedule is a graphical user interface that leverages the power of vixie-cron, dcron and at to manage your crontab file and provide an easy way to schedule tasks on your computer
[00:09] <rww> dandaman: if you're running a bzr server, it's probably somewhere in /etc/bzr/. If you're running a bzr client, I think ~/.bzr/
[00:09] <gmg> isn't their a command I can put in startup to auto-recreate a wireless Ad-Hoc network?
[00:09] <dandaman> thanks!
[00:09] <almoxarife> ActionParsnip: thnks
[00:12] <sacarlson> gmg: you did what?  modify /etc/network/interfaces?  pastebinit lets see what you have
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: i thin s/he went
[00:15] <cyphase> what's an easy way to decode gzip content on a captured http stream?
[00:16] <SliMM> hello guys
[00:16] <teddyb> ok im trying to setup my internet connection, on campus i have to go through various proxies, one for anything on port 80 and 443, another for every other port, and then at home i dont have to go through any of this, the proxy for port 80 and 44
[00:16] <teddyb> 3 is a http proxy
[00:16] <SliMM> I was wondering, will the nVidia graphics card work on the latest dell xps 15 with ubuntu?
[00:17] <SliMM> I mean, beacause of all that optimus thing
[00:17] <teddyb> SliMM so far for me its been a nightmare
[00:17] <john___> hi, does anybody has to suggest me a cover-flow or grid-flow pluggin for rrhythmbox? Thanks in advance!
[00:18] <Sub_Zero> I'm trying to format my SD card to ntfs but in the format menu via right clicking the desktop icon I can only see fat
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: its a GT435M, so yes. The proprietary driver will run it
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> Sub_Zero: install ntfsprogs
[00:18] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: the problem is nvidia optimus
[00:18] <Diamondcite> Sub_Zero: Won't gparted be more suitable for that?
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: what's that?
[00:18] <john___> hi, does anybody has to suggest me a working cover-flow or grid-flow pluggin for rrhythmbox? Thanks in advance!
[00:19] <Sub_Zero> ActionParsnip Already installed, still no show
[00:19] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: core i5 has an integrated gpu that generally gets priority
[00:19] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: and nvidia doesn't have proper drivers for linux
[00:19] <Sub_Zero> Diamondcite The format selection is greyed out
[00:19] <SliMM> teddyb: why?
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: oh one of those dual vga card things
[00:19] <Diamondcite> Sub_Zero: For just ntfs?
[00:19] <kironide`> what does this error mean? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: nvidia have been supporting linux for AGES
[00:19] <kevin_> Anyone know a good drag bar gui for ALSA audio?
[00:20] <Sub_Zero> Diamondcite No the entire 'format to' is
[00:20] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: not optimus
[00:20] <kironide> what does this error mean? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: they MAKE linux drivers
[00:20] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: they don't include their optimus technology
[00:20] <teddyb> i have a 310m :(
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: that looks like some switch where you can change video adapters, right?
[00:20] <Diamondcite> Sub_Zero: If Maybe you card is unformated and a partition table needs to be created first?
[00:20] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: software switch
[00:21] <SliMM> teddyb: and does it not work at all?
[00:21] <SliMM> teddyb: or is there an option in the bios for enabling it
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: i've seen people write scripts and guis for it, personally I advise staying away from stuff like that
[00:22] <th0r> Sub_Zero: you may need superuser priv to format removeable media
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: http://www.netbooknews.com/5133/linux-ubuntu-gets-gpu-switching/
[00:22] <SliMM> ActionParsnip: i don't want that thing, i just want to make sure i can disable it without disabling the nvidia card as well
[00:22] <teddyb> in the bios i have the option for just the intel one or the two of them
[00:22] <teddyb> slimm ^
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: http://www.laptops-drivers.com/video-cards-drivers/how-to-fix-nvidia-optimus-disabled-to-switch-to-discrete-graphics-in-asus-u35jc.html
[00:23] <Guest43275> join red
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> SliMM: seems possible, thats for an asus but there may be similar for dell
[00:24] <Guest43275> okie, i got bodhi linux, how do i get this xchat to server for ICQ?
[00:24] <Guest43275> anyone?
[00:24] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, still here?
[00:24] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, yep
[00:25] <Diamondcite> Guest43275: .. ICQ can do IRC? For that matter.. ICQ has a linux client?
[00:25] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, it seems to be working now :)
[00:25] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, excellent
[00:25] <teddyb> im trying to setup my internet connection, on campus i have to go through various proxies, one for anything on port 80 and 443, another for every other port, and then at home i dont have to go through any of this, the proxy for port 80 and 443 is a http proxy, while the proxy for the other ports is a socks proxy, i have looked at preferences >  network proxy but can only seem to add the http proxy properly
[00:25] <teddyb> sorry for the repost, just wanted to consolodate it all
[00:25] <Mon_Colonel_> hi
[00:25] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, you may also be able to reduce the sleep time, you could try sleep 10 and see how it goes
[00:26] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, what is that sleep command?
[00:26] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499,  check man sleep, it explains it
[00:26] <Mon_Colonel_> do you know how to run 'compizconfig-settings-manager' with a command line please ?
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> Mon_Colonel_: ccsm
[00:26] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, does it delay the time the other commands are executed?
[00:27] <Mon_Colonel_> ActionParsnip, great ! Thank you
[00:27] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, it delays yes
[00:27] <immy> hi
[00:27] <ohsix> hrm too bad slimm left
[00:27] <eijutobi> can anyone help me with installing ubuntu netbook?
[00:27] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, just looked at its man file
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> eijutobi: in what sense, can you expand the question please
[00:27] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, basically we said wait 20 seconds and then execute the other command
[00:28] <immy> i'm trying to add the google repository to software sources. I've added the key already and it is listed but I'm not sure what the actual repository URI is
[00:28] <scarface> I'm trying to install 10.10 alongside Win 7 in a dual-boot scenario.  But there are already 4 primary partitions on the laptop (HP).  Is there a way to create an extended partition without deleting any of the existing primaries?  Or convert one of the primaries to be an extended, without losing the data?
[00:28] <eijutobi> i put in the disc and there's no installation menu, just something that looks awfully like a terminal
[00:28] <immy> has anybody here added the google repository?
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> immy: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/use-google-linux-repositories-in-ubuntu.html
[00:28] <_vladt> I'm trying to use synaptics for my mouse so that I can use syndaemon to turn off my track pad while I type on my laptop; however, /proc/bus/input/devices doesn't list my mouse as having synaptics enabled and though I've turned it on in X11/xorg.conf it still doesn't work. Does anyone have any recommendations on what to look at? I'm on 10.10
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> eijutobi: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[00:29] <eijutobi> yeah.
[00:29] <eijutobi> should i re-download it?
[00:29] <kironide> does anyone know how to fix this error? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> eijutobi: good and are you using a CD?
[00:29] <eijutobi> yes
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> eijutobi: no if it passed MD5 then its fine :)
[00:29] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I modified it a bit also http://pastebin.com/gX6qxB6w
[00:29] <eijutobi> hrm..
[00:29] <Aikar> im finding the default video drivers for 10.10 sufficient for my nvidia GTS 250, however fan speed is still maxed out w/o nividia drivers, anything i can do besides installing nvidia?
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> eijutobi: ok then when the CD starts to boot, press SPACE and select to test the CD for defects, you can also test RAM from the same page
[00:30] <Mon_Colonel_> ActionParsnip, thank again
[00:30] <Mon_Colonel_> bye everybody
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> Mon_Colonel_: np man
[00:30] <eijutobi> alright i'll try it. thanks
[00:30] <deadline> hay all
[00:30] <kevin_> hay
[00:30] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, looks fine
[00:31] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I'm going to reboot once more and check it...
[00:31] <kevin_> 10.04 has multitouch touchpad function enabled by default.. however the system/mouse doesnt show any settings for it.. any ideas?
[00:31] <ShapeShifter499> brb
[00:32] <immy> thanks actionparsnip - i have found that and another webpage with the same URI but it gives me an error - unable to find expected entry
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> immy: so you added: deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free       to /etc/apt/sources.list?
[00:34] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: that repo doesn't exist anymore
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: yeah just noticed
[00:35] <meLon> Anybody have a multi-touch solution for laptop that they like?
[00:35] <immy> nvm actionparsnip - i was getting an error - software sources adds an extra entry for source code - i just deleted it and it looks like everything is ok now
[00:35] <immy> thank you
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> immy: are you after picasa?
[00:36] <immy> google chrome
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> immy: chrome is in the ubuntu repo
[00:36] <kironide> Does anyone know how to fix this? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:37] <immy> that's chromium - should i just go with chromium?
[00:37] <g_0_0> immy, http://www.google.com/chrome?platform=linux
[00:37] <xtbgod> i'm i able to formatan NTFS partition from ubuntu so i can use it for files storage?
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> immy: you can get daily chromium buils using: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chromium-daily/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y install chromium-browser
[00:37] <erUSUL> xtbgod: yes; install ntfsprogs and use gparted
[00:37] <immy> but will it be stable?
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> immy: or chrome: http://blog.sudobits.com/2010/10/22/how-to-install-google-chrome-on-ubuntu-10-10/
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> immy: yes it's stable, its all I use
[00:38] <g_0_0> immy, chrome available here -> http://www.google.com/chrome?platform=linux
[00:38] <meLon> You can get Chromium, as well immy
[00:38] <immy> thx guys :)
[00:39] <cyphase> lol, what the.. <IP_ADDRESS> is being resolved as tracker.thepiratebay.org in wireshark
[00:39] <immy> i had ubuntu running over the weekend but gnome crashed after i installed chromium and had it running...
[00:39] <immy> i thought it might be chromium
[00:40] <kironide> clear
[00:40] <kironide> what does this error mean? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:40] <immy> so i reinstalled ubuntu this morning
[00:40] <xtbgod> erUSUL, my package manager says i got it .. i just don't know how to use it.. i started today
[00:40] <erUSUL> xtbgod: use it via gparted. System>Admin>Partition editor
[00:41] <mia158> exit
[00:44] <pundit> what program or ps-viewer does the system use to display manpages, after they are formatted with groff and before they are diplayed with the pager (less)?
[00:45] <xtbgod> erUSUL, and to which type do you recommend me to change de partition?
[00:45] <immy> i'm studying psyc and some humanities courses - i usually use MS Word and looking for an alternative - i'd like a very good citation/bib tool (preferably integrated) and a word processing programme that allows me to write essays and research reports with appropriate styles and citation formats (APA, Harvard...)
[00:45] <immy> is OO sufficient?
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> immy: that or libreoffice
[00:45] <pundit> immy LaTeX
[00:46] <Aikar> hmm, i just reinstalled ubuntu and i cant remember how to get Chrome Unstable added to sources, anyone know? using ubuntu tweak
[00:47] <erUSUL> xtbgod: type? primary vs logical?
[00:47] <erUSUL> pundit: none they go from froff to less directly
[00:47] <erUSUL> groff*
[00:48] <immy> i better read up about latex... i'm thinking of trying out lyx. it may be useful for psyc research papers particularly with quantitative statistical data
[00:48] <erUSUL> immy: LyX
[00:48] <erUSUL> !info lyx | immy
[00:48] <rww> pundit: Don't crosspost between #ubuntu and #debian, please.
[00:48] <erUSUL> !info texmacs
[00:48] <pundit> erUSUL thats what i thought, too. but i ran a manpage manually through groff -mandoc and it produced a postscript file, which cant be read with "less"
[00:48] <pundit> rww ok
[00:49] <xtbgod> erUSUL, i mean FAT16, N95 Fat32?
[00:49] <erUSUL> xtbgod: you said you wanted ntfs ...
[00:50] <kironide> what does this error mean? thunar-volman: Must specify the new HAL device UDI with --device-added.
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> pundit: can you give the output of: lsb_release -a | pastebinit     Thanks
[00:50] <chrislu5tic> HI there, I am trying to install     gem install rubydns....  but it says "You don't have write permissions into the /var/lib/gems/1.8 directory."
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> pundit: run: sudo apt-get install pastebinit    if you don't have it installed
[00:50] <_vladt_> chrislu5tic: Run as root?
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> chrislu5tic: prefix with sudo
[00:51] <chrislu5tic> thank you
[00:51] <immy> thx and bye
[00:51] <chrislu5tic> all
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> chrislu5tic: without sudo, the command will run as user, which doesn't have write access
[00:51] <chrislu5tic> excellent.
[00:52] <chrislu5tic> i have now achieved my gaol
[00:52] <chrislu5tic> thanks
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> good times :)
[00:52] <erUSUL> pundit: groff -Tascii -mandoc | less
[00:53] <chrislu5tic> hmmm
[00:53] <pundit> erSUL hm, that option  -T is not in the /etc/manpath.config
[00:53] <pundit> erUSUL hm, that option  -T is not in the /etc/manpath.config
[00:55] <chrislu5tic> my next command wont work
[00:55] <nsgn> hello. i need to run a script each time a network cable is connected or disconnected so i can alert virtualbox  to this condition. the script needs to be specific to each NIC, and whether or not it has gone up or down. any pointers for the right way to approach this?
[00:55] <chrislu5tic> sudo ./fuckPSN.rb
[00:56] <ActionParsnip> chrislu5tic: what is the error?
[00:56] <pundit> ActionParsnip http://pastebin.com/DzfqpyuM
[00:56] <chrislu5tic> no command found...
[00:56] <ActionParsnip> pundit: Jaunty is no longer supported
[00:56] <chrislu5tic> its suppost to start  "fuck psn"
[00:57] <ActionParsnip> chrislu5tic: i suggest you search yur filesystem and re-read the guide you are using
[00:57] <plaastik> anyone know a way to get network security alerts thru gnome notify?
[00:57] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | pundit
[00:57] <chrislu5tic> take a look at this.... and ignore the rainbow part    http://gitorious.org/fuckpsn/pages/Home
[00:57] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, its not working again :/
[00:57] <ActionParsnip> plaastik: you can use: notify-send   to make notify-osd show the text you want
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> !eol | pundit
[00:58] <chrislu5tic> just the linux part
[00:58] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, pastebin your rc.local. Was there a reason you edited it to add the other channels
[00:58] <pundit> ActionParsnip well, this is a very general linux question from me; and, is this an official support channel here? Actually i want to use troff for the mapages, this is about 30 years old... i doubt i will find a "support channel" for that  (LOL)
[00:59] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499,  did you reduce the sleep time, you may need to increase it again.
[00:59] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, not really
[00:59] <plaastik> ActionParsnip: thanks
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> pundit: your release isn't suppored in any way
[00:59] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, no    http://pastebin.com/3jg5w0xA
[00:59] <arnold> heya, i'm trying to install adobe air. i see in most tutorials to download the .bin instead. but i also see a .deb. should i download the .bin anyway?
[01:00] <pundit> ActionParsnip please read my last post, maybe then my question will become clearer to you
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> plaastik: not sure man, sorry
[01:00] <chrislu5tic> Launch fuckPsn: sudo ./fuckPsn.rb
[01:00] <alisalaah> sorry..i got disconnected
[01:01] <alisalaah> UBUNTU 10.10 :: how do i put the Clock all the way to the right, it wont allow me to go paste the wifi icon and such in the top panel?
[01:01] <dsdeiz-> ahh nvm. it maybe the .deb
[01:01] <Roasted> Are there any media players that compare to Banshee and Rhythmbox? I'm having an issue with both of them, so I'm trying to find one that uh. works.
[01:02] <tripelbaby> roasted vlc plays media
[01:02] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I left the values alone in alsamixer and when I run the whole command as it is in rc.local  in the terminal, it works
[01:02] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, sound
[01:02] <alisalaah> Roasted, all i could suggest is http://alternativeto.net/software/rhythmbox/ which you may have already looked at
[01:03] <adamruffolo>  Roasted: what about vlc?
[01:03] <DaGeek247> Roasted totem (Movie Player) does
[01:03] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, it should work
[01:03] <g_0_0> you could split the command over several lines
[01:03] <Roasted> guys, I'm not trying to PLAY media. I'm trying to find an itunes style program, that can set up playlists on my mp3 player, etc.
[01:04] <pundit> erUSUL truely with the option -T ascii instead of the default ps the output of groff -mandoc is readable. but i cant see why the system should use this option, as the /etc/manpath.config explicitly says it uses "groff -mandoc"
[01:04] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, so if I put the commands on different lines in rc.local, they will run separately?
[01:04] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, yeah
[01:04] <alisalaah> Roasted, you could use Spotify.. or WINE the WIndows version of iTunes
[01:04] <adamruffolo> Roasted: gtkpod?
[01:05] <alisalaah> Rythmbox and Banshee are the best ones I know of
[01:05] <Roasted> alisalaah, well, I want a program that works, so no - I won't use itunes :P
[01:05] <Roasted> I'm having issues with both of them that's raging me at the moment.
[01:05] <Roasted> I'm not sure if it's my player or the programs or what.
[01:05] <Stormx2> alisalaah, right click the items which won't move and uncheck "lock to panel"
[01:05] <adamruffolo> Roasted: what about gtkpod?
[01:05] <Roasted> let me look that one up
[01:06] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ah I did not know that
[01:06] <Roasted> do I need an ipod for gtkpod?
[01:06] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, and no need for  &   between them?
[01:06] <alisalaah> Stormx2, i tried and the clock wont go right of wifi.. and wifi doesnt move
[01:06] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: wine + spotify is decent
[01:06] <adamruffolo> Roasted: Don't think so.  I have it installed.  Haven't played around with it much but it works without an iPod as far as i can tell.
[01:07] <M4A1> everyone here
[01:07] <adamruffolo> Roasted: scratch that.  Never mind.  I think you are right about the ipod tpart
[01:07] <Macstheyjustsuck> bc81_: It worked on the USB port it was on, then I took it off like I usually do when it's charged, came back, plugged it back in, it says it's in USB mode and it shows up in Computer, and it just didn't work right after that
[01:07] <Macstheyjustsuck> Oh whoops
[01:07] <Macstheyjustsuck> wrong preset
[01:07] <Macstheyjustsuck> ma bad
[01:08] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, no no need f0r &&
[01:08] <Roasted> if only rhythmbox would work
[01:08] <Roasted> sigh
[01:08] <immy> hi
[01:08] <adamruffolo> Roasted: did you try to remove it and reinstall?
[01:08] <immy> i removed the empathy icon from the panel but the power button is also gone now
[01:08] <immy> how do i get it back?
[01:08] <Roasted> adamruffolo, many times
[01:09] <DaGeek247> immy reset the tasbars?
[01:09] <pareli> is it possible to disable the capabilities to use a mouse in a terminal via some config file?
[01:09] <kdog> \quit
[01:10] <adamruffolo> Roasted: try gmusicbrowser
[01:10] <immy> how do i reset?
[01:10] <adamruffolo> roasted: or Amarok
[01:11] <strav`> he. I'm currently using vlc as my main media player for I found it's pretty much the best at handling latency over my lan (I'm actually accessing a small samba share on nas over wifi)...  Any good alternatives? (mainly I'm looking for: good buffering (latency handling), decent music/collection management, low on ressources)
[01:11] <DaGeek247> immy hold on. you might wanna back up your links while i hand type in the command
[01:11] <agreimann> Hello. Had a quick question for everyone. Can hyperlinks be written into zenity dialogs?
[01:12] <spark_> hi all I got like  problem   first my keyboard on my laptop is not totaly working the numpad do not work   and  my nvidia gc is not used ( it is using myhd intel instead -_-)  the 2 cards are detected but  when I install the nedded nvidia drivers I end up to the consol is there a way that I can fix this ?
[01:13] <pareli> x
[01:14] <Nicolas_Leonidas> how do you know what apt-get has installed on your ubuntu before?
[01:14] <chrislu5tic> I cant seem to run a file in the terminal from my desktop that I need.
[01:15] <Nicolas_Leonidas> or is there a way to find out what apps are installed
[01:15] <DaGeek247> immy this will do it: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel
[01:15] <pareli> spark_: what kind of nvidia gc do you have?
[01:15] <immy> thx :)
[01:15] <spark_> pareli I have an 310m
[01:15] <agreimann> Nicolas_Leonidas: You're trying to find previously installed programs?
[01:15] <mnaines> What's the solution to a kernel panic caused by a bad kernel update or memory allocation error?
[01:15] <Nicolas_Leonidas> agreimann: yes
[01:16] <strav`> Nicolas_Leonidas: synaptic has a filter to show you installed packages
[01:16] <Nicolas_Leonidas> strav`: only for packages that synaptic has installed or everything?
[01:16] <agreimann> OK. In the shell, go ahead and type in "ls /var/cache/apt/archives" with no quotes.
[01:16] <agreimann> This will list all packages you have previously installed.
[01:17] <chrislu5tic> Download source code
[01:17] <agreimann> You might want to add the | less flag if the list is long.
[01:17] <chrislu5tic> Install required gems with gem install rubydns
[01:17] <chrislu5tic> Launch fuckPsn: sudo ./fuckPsn.rb
[01:17] <FloodBot1> chrislu5tic: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:17] <chrislu5tic> sudo ./fuckPsn.rb  wont work.. andy ideas?
[01:17] <pareli> spark_: tried startx when you end up in console?
[01:17] <Nicolas_Leonidas> agreimann: thanks
[01:17] <lahwran> I recently updated my system. apparently this included a nm-applet update. since then, the tooltip that tells me wireless strength on nm-applet has stopped working (it just doesn't show up). anyone have any ideas how I would troubleshoot this?
[01:17] <mnaines> agreiman, how do you do a complete uninstall through the command line?
[01:17] <agreimann> A complete uninstall?
[01:18] <agreimann> From which operating system?
[01:18] <mnaines> agreiman, like completely remove an app and all its components from Ubuntu
[01:18] <strav`> Nicolas_Leonidas: everything you installed with apt
[01:18] <agreimann> Ah.
[01:18] <agreimann> apt-get remove program_name, where program_name is the program you want to uninstall.
[01:18] <bc81> strav`: i'm currently using rhythmbox with a similar setup as you, and have no latency problems, tried it out yet?
[01:18] <spark_> pareli I do not whant to mess up my system :/
[01:18] <strav`> Nicolas_Leonidas: you can also try dpkg-query which is neat on the cmd line.
[01:19] <mnaines> agreiman, next question:  What's the solution to a kernel panic caused by a bad kernel update or a memory allocation error?
[01:19] <zzing> Is there such thing as a 'mini' cd instead of the 700mb variety?
[01:19] <agreimann> Or, you can open Synaptic, Quick Find the program you want to remove, right-click it, and click "Completely remove package."
[01:19] <strav`> bc81: nope, I tried audacious with different buffer settings and can't seem to get rid of glitches now and then.
[01:19] <Nicolas_Leonidas> strav`: thanks
[01:19] <agreimann> mnaines: Can you revert to the last kernel from grub?
[01:19] <immy> worked like a charm
[01:19] <immy> thx dageek
[01:19] <mnaines> agreiman, yes.
[01:19] <strav`> bc81: I'll give rythmbox a try.
[01:20] <lahwran> anyone on the nm-applet tooltip problem?
[01:20] <spark_> pareli I did not tryed because it try to boot on both card
[01:20] <bc81> strav`: then again, i'm relatively close to my router, so that may be why i experience no latency problems.  only with 720p video streaming over samba
[01:20] <agreimann> lahwran: You might need to reinstall the notification service with the shell.
[01:20] <strav`> bc81: ok
[01:21] <agreimann> Anyone how if hyperlinks can be used in a zenity dialog?
[01:21] <lahwran> agreimann: well the notification daemon works fine with it, shows me popups just fine, it just doesn't show me the status *tooltip* that indicates signal strength
[01:21] <bc81> strav`: also, gconf-editor apps >> ryhthmbox >> player, there is a network_buffer_size setting.  i think you'll be quite happy with rythmbox :)
[01:21] <strav`> bc81: kinda odd, I don't seem to have any latency for 720p videos.
[01:21] <jigynet> anyone here play dark orbit?
[01:22] <induz> why I can not change my display monitor's resolution?? on KuBuntu Lucid
[01:22] <agreimann> lahwran: Ah. What desktop environment do you use?
[01:22] <induz> it is set to too high
[01:22] <pareli> spark_: oh, well then i'm not sure. installed ubuntu about a week ago for my first time, and i only know so much.. post your problem on ubuntuforums and search your query on google.
[01:22] <bc81> strav`: i should probably look into vlc settings to increase buffer size..forgot aobut that one
[01:22] <agreimann> lahwran: If it's a fresh Ubuntu install, it'd be GNOME.
[01:22] <strav`> bc81: although it would have been nice to have this option in rythmbox itself. Have you tried mpd btw?
[01:22] <lahwran> agreimann: gnome. I use the standard applets
[01:22] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, going to try it now, I got distracted by watching the earthquake reports on tv
[01:23] <bc81> strav`: never heard of it until now
[01:23] <agreimann> lahwran: OK. Can you try to delete your top panel, rebuild it, and explain what happens then?
[01:23] <jigynet> yea i know
[01:23] <jigynet> will there be more tho?
[01:23] <lahwran> agreimann: purpose being? i've heavily customized my panels and would prefer not to delete them. it'd actually be the bottom panel with the indicators.
[01:24] <agreimann> induz: Edit the xorg.conf file. Check /etc/X11 and Ubuntu support for options with this.
[01:24] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, should I add a sleep command before each one?
[01:24] <agreimann> lahwran: Your applets are on the bottom of the screen?
[01:24] <xtbgod> Recommend me a p2p client?
[01:24] <jigynet> gay
[01:25] <agreimann> lahwran: Resetting the panel should assist in fixing the tooltip problem.
[01:25] <lahwran> agreimann: the indicator applet is.
[01:25] <aeon-ltd> xtbgod: p2p like bittorrent?
[01:25] <lahwran> I see :/
[01:25] <jigynet> wants to /join ubuntuofftopic
[01:25] <twitch> !torrent | xtbgod
[01:25] <aeon-ltd> xtbgod: rtorrent if you like cli, transmission for gui
[01:26] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, you shouldn't need a sleep command before each one
[01:26] <xtbgod> Thank you
[01:26] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, just put one at the beginning
[01:26] <strav`> bc81: it's really a good thing. mpd is a music deamon that allows you to control it via tons of clients. So basically, my nas is connected to a sound system and I'm controlling what plays using an mpd client. I never tried to use it on a remote file source.
[01:26] <Solm> Hey, is it possible to run Ubuntu without restart? And then exit ubuntu without restart via having it on a usb drive?
[01:27] <agreimann> Quitting...
[01:27] <aeon-ltd> Solm: no, but you can run ubuntu inside other oses
[01:27] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, begging of the whole thing like this ?     http://pastebin.com/5daDA2jS
[01:27] <Qation> Hey does anyone know how I can get the sound device name I'm using? I'm trying to use gtk-recordmydesktop and I'm not sure what to put for the device area..
[01:27] <bc81> strav`: sounds interesting, i'll look into it. hey do you know where the vlc buffer settings are?  i can't find them for the life of me
[01:28] <Solm> @Aeon-Itd, how would I go about doing that?
[01:28] <aeon-ltd> Solm: virtual machines
[01:28] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, *begining
[01:28] <aeon-ltd> !vm | Solm
[01:28] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, *beginning
[01:28] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, that should work
[01:29] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ok trying now brb
[01:29] <bc81> strav`: is it the default caching policy under input/codecs?
[01:30] <jigynet> me have 64bit atom netbook with xubuntu xD
[01:30] <strav`> bc81: tools/settings... show Settings set to all, then input/codecs
[01:30] <Solm> Ubottu, No, I'm asking if I, for example, could go to another computer, for example one at school (I'm in college), and put a USB drive in and start up ubuntu, without restarting the entire computer.
[01:30] <bc81> strav`: thanks :)
[01:30] <Solm> lawl
[01:30] <rww> Solm: no
[01:30] <strav`> bc81: it's in the input/codecs I just don't remember exactly what setting, let me check.
[01:30] <ExplodingPiglets> how do I wipe my hard drive?
[01:30] <ExplodingPiglets> completly?
[01:31] <jigynet> open it..
[01:31] <bc81> strav`: think i got it, default caching policy?  probably want that high as it can go
[01:31] <rww> ExplodingPiglets: download http://www.dban.org/ , write it to a CD, boot from it, follow instructions.
[01:31] <aeon-ltd> Solm: this is kinda close http://lifehacker.com/#!5195999/portable-ubuntu-runs-ubuntu-inside-windows
[01:31] <jigynet> shoot it from a cannon?
[01:31] <hypatia> ExplodingPiglets: i use the shred command with the flags -n 1 -z
[01:31] <Qation> Does anyone know how I can find my sound devices's name if I'm using alsa?
[01:32] <hypatia> ExplodingPiglets: which writes random data to the drive once, then zeroes
[01:32] <jigynet> repeat
[01:32] <strav`> bc81: heh. I just don't see that default caching policy
[01:32] <jigynet> if your really harry about your data being gone, try to recovver it xD
[01:32] <Solm> @Aeon-itd, Ah, that's awesome, is there any Mac-compatible ones?
[01:32] <ActionParsnip> ExplodingPiglets: you can zero it
[01:33] <bc81> strav`: tools >> settings >> input & codecs >> network >> default caching policy
[01:33] <strav`> bc81: ok, It's in the simple settings
[01:33] <strav`> bc81: you have some interesting network related stuff in advanced if you wish to take a look.
[01:33] <Secret1222>  is there a program to allow to use exe files?
[01:33] <rww> !wine | Secret1222
[01:34] <Lamo> Like the jacknutts I am I accidentally botched my /var permissions. Anyonbe have a link where i can find the defaults?
[01:34] <bc81> strav`: i set it to highest, restarted vlc, tried a 720p video stream, but it still hangs.  might be because it's pulling the file off a usb external drive over samba through wifi lol.  i'll check out some of those advanced settings though
[01:34] <jigynet> i play dark orbit in xubuntu... the games resolutions are not takeing..
[01:34] <mattmatteh> i am trying to update 10.04 to 10.10, ran the update manager, and i get a window that pops up saying "Could not calculate the upgrade" .... "
[01:34] <mattmatteh> This is most likely a transient problem, please try again later."
[01:35] <strav`> bc81: ah there, in input/codecs in the advanced settings, if you expand access modules you can select alsa and then enter a numeric value in ms for the cache.
[01:35] <jigynet> bc81, try 1500 mtu and turn off traffic controls..max any cache available..enable media mode?
[01:35] <strav`> bc81: this of course is for audio... for video I don't remember if I tweaked anything.
[01:36] <Nicolas_Leonidas> I don't know why this file is being created every time I restart /etc/init.d/.svnserve.swo
[01:36] <bc81> strav`: , jigynet i'll tweak around with those, thanks :)
[01:36] <jigynet> x
[01:36] <Nicolas_Leonidas> I'm trying to get rid of all traits of svn
[01:36] <jigynet> xD
[01:37] <Secret1222> thanks
[01:37] <aeon-ltd> Solm:  i don't think so
[01:37] <strav`> bc81: something nice too... in the access modules you have an smb module which has a cache value to be set too. (mine is at 1500)
[01:37] <Secret1222> :)
[01:37] <iszak> so I've got a bunch of JPEG's that kind of in a non-standard format and I want to batch resave them via the CLI, anyone know of a CLI tool that'll read and resave jpeg's accordingly.
[01:38] <bosyak> how to use second desktop? I enabled "single display desktop" (Multi-desktop)" but can't find how to drag to it something?!
[01:38] <Secret1222> im not playing around with perl because i stuffed it up
[01:38] <jigynet> hmm
[01:38] <mickster04> iszak: do you want to change bits or something else?
[01:38] <Solm> @Aeon-Itd, Ah well thanks anyways
[01:38] <mattmatteh> anyone familiar with updating problems that could help?
[01:38] <iszak> mickster04, It will change the format or so yeah.
[01:38] <jigynet> so who should i contact? adobe? game devs? or os support?
[01:38] <Secret1222> i mean i stuffed ubuntu by installing proxysitelist
[01:39] <iszak> bosyak, what graphics drivers do you have ATI or Nvidia?
[01:39] <bosyak> iszak: Ati 5450
[01:39] <Xeon06> Hey folks. If I precede a script with "#!/bin/bash" and call it foo, and I just run "foo" from the same directory, it should work, right?
[01:40] <iszak> bosyak, you've installed catalyst control center?
[01:40] <bosyak> it's seems to work... yes
[01:40] <bosyak> mouse is working
[01:40] <Jordan_U> Xeon06: No.
[01:40] <Xeon06> Jordan_U: What am I doing wrong?
[01:40] <iszak> so you went into the catalyst control center -> display manager -> select the monitor -> multi display taba nd set it to multi-display desktop with display(s) x
[01:40] <iszak> bosyak, ^
[01:40] <Cpudan80> Xeon06: If you chmod it so it's executable and do ./foo
[01:41] <Cpudan80> Xeon06: then it will execute the stuff in the bash script
[01:41] <mickster04> iszak: so you need a cli tool that can edit files byte by byte so wait around seeif anyone knows of one, otherwise googling that may also help?
[01:41] <jigynet> soo, hmm
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Xeon06: It needs to be executable and you need to run "./foo". You can only use the program name alone for programs in $PATH.
[01:41] <ActionParsnip> Xeon06: you will need to chmod +x filename    for it to work, but yes
[01:41] <Xeon06> Jordan_U: Cpudan80: ActionParsnip Thanks!
[01:41] <Cpudan80> np
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Xeon06: You're welcome.
[01:41] <induz> why I can not change my display/monitor settings on Kubuntu/lucid KDE?
[01:41] <Cpudan80> satisfiedCustomers++
[01:41] <iszak> mickster04, well I just need to resave them all in a common format.
[01:42] <ActionParsnip> induz: what video chip?
[01:42] <induz> I tried to change the dpi from highest to lower and the monitor goes black...
[01:42] <bosyak> iszak: I don't want share my desktop on two monitors. I want two separate desktops... is it possible?
[01:42] <mickster04> iszak: are they in a proer format now? like png? and you want to change then to jpg? cos that's again slightly different?
[01:42] <induz> its integrated intel chip
[01:42] <induz> it works fine on Gnome
[01:43] <induz> now with the highest dpi set the dispaly is fudgy
[01:43] <strav`> bosyak: it's possible but a little more involved.
[01:43] <Jordan_U> iszak: You can use the "convert" command from imagemagic.
[01:43] <bc81> strav`: thanks again, no more 720p laggage!  not sure which setting fixed it (i set all cache possiblities to 5000).  now i don't have to copy the files here to watch them
[01:43] <iszak> Jordan_U, yeah just found that
[01:43] <bc81> strav`: any luck with rhythmbox?
[01:43] <strav`> bosyak: there are some good tutorials about this but the last time I did this, you could play with xorg.conf now things have changed.
[01:44] <tensorpudding> can one use application indicators with vala?
[01:44] <iszak> bosyak, then change the multi-display setting to single display desktop (multi-desktop) in the same area in catalyst control panel.
[01:44] <iszak> bosyak, but that said you won't be able to drag between them IIRC.
[01:44] <tensorpudding> and if so, what library do you need
[01:44] <bosyak> iszak: how to run something on second monitor? or how to use it?
[01:45] <iszak> bosyak, you move your mouse into the second monitor and thus desktop and run something.. simple
[01:45] <iszak> and it shouldn't conflict with the other one.
[01:45] <bosyak> strav`: are Ati card good? or Nvidia have better support?
[01:45] <strav`> bc81: my nas is currently down (gotta buy new hds), but I'll try it later - meanwhile perhaps I'll see if I cannot get more juice out of vlc. I really like using one good application for all my media.
[01:45] <induz> I go to k--computer..system settings--display/monitor, it ios set to 1280x1024[auto], i want it to change it to1152x864
[01:45] <iszak> bosyak, I heard Nvidia have better support
[01:45] <induz> how can i achieve that
[01:46] <strav`> bosyak: you should be able to do it with both. Of course nvidia is always less a pain.
[01:46] <mickster04> induz: you can do that in gnome?
[01:46] <bc81> strav`: theres also a ton of plugins in vlc, never messed with them myself.  you might find something of use in there
[01:46] <jigynet> how do i tell darkorbit/flash to use one resolution?
[01:46] <induz> mickster04, yes
[01:47] <steve__> where is the natty chat?
[01:47] <mickster04> !natty
[01:47] <steve__> ty
[01:47] <mickster04> )
[01:47] <mickster04> :)
[01:47] <bosyak> iszak: second monitor is absolutly bold... no context meny. no menu... suppose it's bug?
[01:47] <induz> yes i can do that on Gnome
[01:47] <iszak> bosyak, you probably haven't created the menus and stuff yet.
[01:47] <induz> I am stuck
[01:47] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, rebooted 4 times and the commands only worked once
[01:48] <induz> now the fonts are bleeding
[01:48] <strav`> bosyak: the term you're looking for in google is: xorg multiseat conf
[01:48] <bosyak> iszak: mean for secon desktop? But context menu should work?
[01:48] <bosyak> strav`: ok
[01:48] <Nach0z> um. i've got a question... i'm looking at a bunch of ubuntu scripts that have rc.d in them but my Ubuntu install (10.10) has no rc.d folder. it's got rc1.d through rc6.d but no actual rc.d ....  will the "update-rc.d" command still work with that?
[01:48] <ActionParsnip> !boot
[01:49] <iszak> bosyak, ah yeah, you're right.
[01:49] <Nach0z> ah. thank you.
[01:52] <bosyak> how to disable compiz at all?
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> bosyak: press ALT+F2 and run:  metacity --replace
[01:53] <strav`> bosyak: you can also try to install compiz-fusion that lets you manage this from a try icon.
[01:54] <strav`> bosyak: I'm sorry, I meant: fusion-icon
[01:54] <strav`> and I meant tray
[01:54] <dazonic> Hi I'm trying to get the latest sqlite3, I've run apt-get update && apt-get install sqlite3 but it's only getting 3.4.2 not 3.7
[01:54] <dazonic> what am I forgetting?
[01:55] <rww> dazonic: which version of Ubuntu are you on?
[01:55] <hesco> I'd like to add zabbix-agent to an ubuntu box where /etc/debian-version reads: '4.0'.  Which version of this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=zabbix-agent do I need, please?
[01:55] <induz> is it a chip problem??
[01:56] <induz> I dont have any extra video card
[01:56] <bosyak_> iszak: strav` I disable compiz and now I have two desktops :)
[01:56] <dazonic> rww hardy I believe... is that the problem?
[01:56] <induz> is there some solution to that?
[01:57] <rww> dazonic: Yes. Ubuntu doesn't update to new major versions of software after release, so the current version in hardy repositories is 3.4.2.
[01:57] <rww> !latest
[01:57] <xangua> dazonic: upgrade to lucid if ypu want to have newer software
[01:57] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | dazonic
[01:57] <danub> hey all, i have 3.6 gigs used in /var/cache/apt/archives. Can i safely delete stuff in that directory?
[01:57] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I give up
[01:57] <ActionParsnip> danub: run:   sudo apt-get clean    it will happen for you
[01:57] <iszak> bosyak_, will have to remember that.
[01:58] <danub> ActionParsnip: ty, ill do that :)
[01:58] <coz_> danub,   or autoclean
[01:58] <strav`> bosyak_: I somehow doubt that you'll be able to plug two keyboards and have one assigned to a screen and vice-versa (for that would really be two desktops).
[01:58] <dazonic> rww, xanga, ubottu thanks heaps! there's no one-liner to upgrade is there? sorry i'm just a drop kick web dev with a vps
[01:59] <coz_> dazonic,   upgrade the current system or upgrade to next version?
[01:59] <ActionParsnip> bosyak_: you can have a dualseater, but you will need another monitor and mouse :)
[02:00] <ahaziah77> need some help with my taskbar, doesnt give me the option to shutdown, reboot etc.....is there any way to fix this glitch?    http://imagebin.org/139197
[02:00] <dazonic> coz_ the current system, from hardy to lucid
[02:00] <hesco> I generally work in debian and am unfamiliar with how ubuntu lables its versions or what relation the /etc/debian-version file (which reads '4.0') might have to the version of ubuntu installed on this box.  Can anyone please advise?
[02:00] <coz_> software or hardware kvm
[02:00] <rww> dazonic: "sudo do-release-upgrade"
[02:00] <eskpados-insane> somebody know how use the arpspoof?
[02:00] <danub> ActionParsnip: you seem to be a pretty knowledgable guy, what do you use to track down disk space?
[02:00] <rww> !upgrade | dazonic
[02:00] <coz_> dazonic,   which version do you have now   in terminal    lsb_release -a
[02:00] <ActionParsnip> danub: there is disk space analyser but I keep my OS trim. You can remove old kernels to regain 120Mb per kernel
[02:00] <bc81> ahaziah77: right-click panel, add, Shutdown
[02:01] <danub> im using du with the max-depth flag, but i need to exclude a few directories under root (windows partitions that are mounted and take forever to du)
[02:01] <hesco> tap, tap, tap.  is this mic on?
[02:01] <dazonic> coz_ no good, zsh: command not found: lsb_release
[02:01] <coz_> hesco,   in terminal     lsb_release -a
[02:01] <danub> ActionParsnip: yeah, im trying to cut back... its at 14 gigs right now and I have no idea where it's hiding all this extra data ;)
[02:01] <coz_> dazonic, mm
[02:01] <hesco> coz_ thanks, will try that
[02:01] <bc81> ahaziah77: sorry, not Shutdown but "Indicator Applet Session"
[02:01] <rww> danub: If you only want du to traverse the current filesystem, use du -x
[02:01] <ahaziah77> bc81, k, is there anyway to actually fix where it is supposed to be though, that adds additional icon
[02:02] <ActionParsnip> danub: run:  uname -a   this is the current kernel
[02:02] <coz_> dazonic,  sorry I apparently gave that command to the wrong person
[02:02] <ahaziah77> bc81, k, lemme give that a try
[02:02] <bc81> ahaziah77: right-click the applets > move
[02:02] <coz_> dazonic,  I believe it would be   sudo update-manager -d
[02:02] <ActionParsnip> danub: run:  dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2    those are the installed kernels
[02:02] <coz_> dazonic,  but check  !upgrade
[02:02] <rww> dazonic, coz_: it's sudo do-release-upgrade for command-line VPSes.
[02:02] <hesco> thanks coz_, it says feisty, 7.04.
[02:02] <coz_> !upgrade | dazonic
[02:02] <Twiggy2cents> I finished my apt-get upgrade and I have packages held back. linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic mythtv-frontend  mythvideo
[02:02] <rww> coz_: the -d switch to update-manager and do-release-upgrade is for upgrading to development releases, and should not be recommended in here.
[02:02] <danub> ActionParsnip: yeah right now i have 2 (plus their recovery). want to make sure this update went good before i remove them
[02:03] <coz_> rww,   ah old habits :)
[02:03] <Twiggy2cents> Any idea why they were held back?
[02:03] <bc81> !panels | ahaziah77 also you can reset the to default with a single command
[02:03] <dazonic> okay sweet hey thanks everyone for your help, incredible community here
[02:03] <Twiggy2cents> I am on mythbuntu 10.04
[02:03] <hesco> my choices of zabbix-agent packages include: hardy, karmic, lucid, maverick, and natty
[02:03] <ahaziah77> bc81, where do i locate the applets, cant find
[02:03] <coz_> dazonic,  good luck on that :)
[02:03] <hesco> which might be closest to an old hardy installation?
[02:03] <marcagio> Hi everyone, here is my problem. I have a PC with an ATI video card, it's connected to a TV via S-Video, I don't have a monitor 'cause all my other pcs are laptops... I boot up with the live CD but as soon as the OS starts the refreshing rate is too fast and I have no clue how I could change it, since everything is fuzzy on my screen
[02:04] <bc81> ahaziah77: try that command, it will reset your panels
[02:04] <mattmatteh> marcagio: using any computer with s video will be painful
[02:04] <mattmatteh> marcagio: no computer display at all ?
[02:04] <MindWarper_> UNITY !
[02:04] <mattmatteh> marcagio: what is your intended use of this once you install gentoo ?
[02:04] <ahaziah77> bc81, k
[02:05] <rww> hesco: If you're using 7.04 as lsb_release says, your system reached end-of-life status in October 2008. It is no longer receiving security updates, and is not supported here. See the following message from ubottu for upgrade information.
[02:05] <rww> !eol | hesco
[02:05] <mattmatteh> marcagio: doh, i forgot i was not in #gentoo, no matter, what is your intended use after you install ubuntu :P
[02:05] <J697> This is a stupid question but, how can I make my computer not turn off if I leave it alone for like a day?
[02:05] <drexl> hello, long question here about wi-fi driver and lubuntu  http://paste.ubuntu.com/570347/
[02:05] <ahaziah77> bc81, cool deal, command worked
[02:05] <coz_> marcagio,  I have never tried this but  when the cd boots to the keyboard logo at the bottom hit "enter" to get to grub menu  then hit "e"  and edit the kernal stanza  with   nomodeset  just before quiet splash   then boot from there   ,,, I have no idea if that will help though
[02:06] <bc81> J697: System >> Preferences >> Power Management
[02:06] <marcagio> mattmatteh, I have the display, it's showing... but the screen is scrolling fast I can't see what i'm doing, but i do see the mouse and everything... I want to watch movies that are stored on another pc on my TV
[02:06] <mattmatteh> coz_: console is hardly useable with s video
[02:06] <J697> bc81, I already tried that
[02:06] <hesco> rww: thanks, understandable.  But I have not been asked to upgrade this machine, only to ascertain if it is still running.  WOuld any of these zabbix-agents work on that old box?
[02:06] <coz_> mattmatteh,  ah   ok   as I said I have no experience with it
[02:07] <J697> bc81, I pressed don't sleep or whatever after 15 minutes, and it still does
[02:07] <send_from_shell> I want to send files from shell to another website
[02:07] <send_from_shell> how can I do it
[02:07] <mattmatteh> coz_: kinda readable, way better than composite
[02:07] <coz_> mattmatteh,  ok .. I will try to keep that in mind
[02:07] <marcagio> coz_ will try
[02:07] <mattmatteh> marcagio: i would suggest fidning a computer display to do the install
[02:07] <bc81> J697: also check your screensaver settings
[02:08] <rww> hesco: If there's a zabbix-agent package in feisty's repositories, ubottu's EOLUpgrades link says how to get access to those repositories (which have been moved to an archive server). If not, we don't support mixing different versions' packages here.
[02:08] <J697> bc81, where are those at?
[02:08] <bc81> J697: System >> Preferences >> Screensaver
[02:08] <mattmatteh> marcagio: i think ubuntu only has a gui installer.  all i can think of is using ssh and installing from another computer, like gentoo, but not sure thats what you want
[02:08] <recoil_> hi everyone. if i use conky, and i want him to display the artist name from rythmbox wich variable do i have to call?
[02:08] <hesco> thanks, will pursue that then
[02:08] <mattmatteh> coz_: i only used s video once on a computer, and mostly from ps2 linux days
[02:08] <danub> ok, time to clean up the /usr/ dir. there is 8.9 gigs in it. what can safely be deleted here?
[02:08] <strav`> I'm going. See ya all.
[02:09] <mattmatteh> danub: shouldnt you be using the package manager to remove old packages ?
[02:09] <bc81> recoil_: i've never tried this, so good luck: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5843297
[02:10] <xtbgod> how can i type ascii characters using Alt + NumPad and type symbols using AltGr + Letter?
[02:10] <danub> mattmatteh: probably, but I dont know how to see the list of the 2200 packages that got downloaded with the upgrade in a terminal.
[02:10] <danub> guess ill reboot to runlevel 5 and use the gui :(
[02:10] <rww> ubottu: tell send_from_shell about crossposting
[02:10] <mattmatteh> danub: you dont want to go deleting files without understanding how the system works
[02:11] <danub> mattmatteh: well i was hoping it was all manpages
[02:11] <mattmatteh> danub: take a look at filelight
[02:11] <send_from_shell> rww ?
[02:11] <crlcan81> especially hidden files with the .*filename*
[02:11] <danub> mattmatteh: but its all in /usr/lib/ and /usr/share, which gets rid of my "just delete the manuals" theory
[02:11]  * send_from_shell ignores ubottu
[02:11] <bc81> xtbgod: you mean you want to type special charcters like ©※℞⊙ ?
[02:12] <hesco> rww: thanks for that.  Its a beautiful thing.  I've never even been able to apt-get update this box since assuming some responsibility for it nearly two years ago.
[02:12] <rww> send_from_shell: Crossposting support questions in multiple IRC channels is rude and against our IRC guidelines. Asking support questions in #ubuntu-offtopic is also rude.
[02:12] <xtbgod> bc81, but by pressing AltGr + Letter or Alt + NumPad ..
[02:12] <mattmatteh> danub: is that really using that much space ?
[02:12] <send_from_shell> rww: ok you are rude
[02:12] <mattmatteh> danub: do you have games installed ?
[02:12] <danub> 3.8 gigs in /usr/lib, and 4.8 in /usr/share/
[02:12] <mattmatteh> danub: that what i noticed taking up alot
[02:13] <danub> mattmatteh: just what was installed by default
[02:13] <rww> send_from_shell: No, I'm just pointing out things you should have read when you joined here and there.
[02:13] <mattmatteh> danub: 8 GB seems high, mine is about 5 here
[02:13] <mattmatteh> with addition apps installed
[02:13] <danub> mattmatteh: yeah, thats why im doing some housecleaning ;)
[02:13] <rww> hesco: You're welcome. Bear in mind that those repositories are frozen in the state they were in when feisty went EOL, so as I said, you're missing security updates.
[02:13] <mattmatteh> danub: thats not the correct way to clean
[02:13] <recoil_> bc81: thanks
[02:14] <crlcan81> Is there any way of expanding your mounted drive's swap space/filesystem space to empty space right beside it without loading liveCD and running gparted?
[02:14] <mattmatteh> crlcan81: how much ram do you have ?
[02:14] <crlcan81> 4 gigs.
[02:14] <danub> yeah, looks like ill have to go thru synaptic to clean some stuff up
[02:15] <mattmatteh> crlcan81: and thats not enough that you need swap ?
[02:15] <crlcan81> If you can learn terminal commands, use sudo apt-get ubuntu-tweak
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> crlcan81: as long as the partition is unmounted, you can manipulate it
[02:15] <bc81> recoil_: i just press and hold ctrl+shift, then type u2299 then let go of ctrl+shift and get ⊙
[02:15] <crlcan81> It's not that, I have free space on the drive I want to recover.
[02:16] <crlcan81> the only way of doing it is via livecd then, so the drive isn't mounted.
[02:16] <crlcan81> Because this is the drive currently being ran.
[02:16] <recoil_> bc81 so???
[02:16] <mattmatteh> crlcan81: oh.  i am not a fan or resizeing, i usually back up, repartition, restore.  infact i am doing that now.  if i could only update ubuntu
[02:17] <crlcan81> Well this is from an old install that wasn't properly finished.
[02:17] <goguda> Hey... could I have some help identifying why I am getting the error: Failed to build newlib (stage: newlib_build) in the terminal? Here's the log of the build: http://pastebin.com/5hYeg2nk It doesn't start from the very top, but I don't think that part is important.
[02:17] <crlcan81> So I finally was able to fix it.
[02:17] <recoil_> bc81: uhm no1 asked that me neither.. xD
[02:17] <bc81> recoil_: so there are some settings in System >> Preferences >> Keyboard >> Layouts >> Options >> Alt/Win Key Behavior
[02:18] <recoil_> i dont want this to know i never aked that
[02:18] <bc81> recoil_: sorry, got your name mixed up with xtbgod
[02:18] <recoil_> xD
[02:19] <crlcan81> In fact I'm about to run live CD now to resize.
[02:20] <clarkrente> boa noite, amigos!
[02:20] <crlcan81> So you can, in fact, expand your filesystem's partition once the freespace has been moved between swap and filesystem? Or can it be incorporated with other keystrokes?
[02:20] <goguda> Nevermind.  I think it might be because I don't have some newlib files installed.
[02:20] <crlcan81> I don't know all of gparted's commands, or any other program that does that.
[02:20] <xtbgod> bc81, i read what u said lemme check
[02:21] <ShapeShifter499> what are some ways of running commands at boot as root?
[02:22] <jukelox> So I just upgraded from Hardy to Lucid and the one thing I cannot get installed is libmtp8. dpkg -d=2000 isn't giving me any information at all and none of the bug reports on this topic seem to be resolved.
[02:23] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: you can put commands into /etc/rc.local and they will be run at boot as root, automatically....
[02:23] <recoil_> bc81: works perfectly thank you :D
[02:23] <jukelox> Does anyone have any experience getting libmtp8 installed on Lucid? Amarok and rhythmbox depend on it.
[02:23] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki, rc.local isn't reliable for me, doesn't run commands most of the time
[02:25] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: then you're doing something wrong. I don't know of any bugs in this area that would prevent running commands. Wanna pastebin the commands so we can see them?
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> !info libmtp8
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> !info libmtp8 lucid
[02:27] <theperfecttaco> does anyone else have trouble with fullscreen streaming video in maverick?
[02:27] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki http://pastebin.com/ukXRiNx5
[02:27] <Frenk> yes
[02:27] <Frenk> as in yes, i have problems with fullscreen streaming
[02:27] <mickster04> !who
[02:27] <itaylor57> theperfecttaco: no
[02:27] <theperfecttaco> i've tried several fixes listed on various message boards, no luck
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> theperfecttaco: do you mean like youtube?
[02:28] <Frenk> !theperfecttaco   as soon as i fullscreen the vid pauses
[02:28] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: Doesn't appear to be any warnings about libmtp in that info
[02:28] <theperfecttaco> exactly
[02:28] <theperfecttaco> youtube and every other site with streaming video
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> jukelox: it says libmtp is at version 1.0.2-1 in lucid in the main repo
[02:29] <jordan_> hello
[02:30] <jordan_> i dont suppose anyone is on who happens to be pretty efficient with Ubuntu
[02:30] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: libmtp8 is at version 1.0.2-1 in lucid, yes
[02:30] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki still there?
[02:31] <hypatia> jordan_: just ask your question :)
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> jukelox: thats what ubottu said
[02:31] <jordan_> Anybody mind helping me for a minute??
[02:31] <recoil_> dont ask meta questions
[02:31] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: yet it won't install
[02:31] <gunndawg> jordan_, just ask ur question
[02:31] <jordan_> whos Meta
[02:32] <jukelox> !ask jordan_
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> jukelox: ok run: sudo apt-get install libmtp8    and pastebin the output]

[02:32] <recoil_> metaquestions are obsolete like "can somebody help me" or "does anyone know about X)
[02:32] <bc81> jukelox: does this help you? http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/LLXmLQPyZq4ggnmMbyDZ#luyevnGcshO7TLB

[02:33] <induz> why i was not able to set my monitor display on KDE
[02:33] <induz> i can change on Gnome
[02:33] <jordan_> ah, yeh , i dont like asking them but i hadnt seen anybody typing at the moment so wasnt sure if it was a dead chatroom
[02:33] <mickster04> recoil_: use !ask or !anybody
[02:33] <hypatia> jordan_: open a terminal, type lsusb - that will tell you wht kind of wifi chipset you have
[02:33] <induz>  is there any problem on Lucid with KDE
[02:33] <recoil_> ty
[02:33] <induz> all the display looks like bleeding

[02:33] <recoil_> !ask recoil_
[02:33] <jukelox> bc81: that only helps me hold the package, doesn't help me install it
[02:33] <hypatia> jordan_: let me know what wireless chipset you have; if you're not sure which line is the wifi stick, paste the whole thing into pastebin.com
[02:34] <theperfecttaco> is there an option in XChat to not show joins/quits in the channel window?
[02:34] <rww> !ask | recoil_

[02:34] <jordan_> hey hypatia, how do i do that
[02:34] <recoil_> ahh ok
[02:34] <mickster04> recoil_: yeah you need a pipe
[02:34] <moszer> hello, need help, been trying to upgrade Blender 2.4 to 2.5,ive tried to run the package thru terminal,an error telling me that "the folder isn't empty", can anyone help me please,i am trying to use openshot video that required blender 2.5
[02:34] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/570355/
[02:34] <recoil_> !anybody | recoil_
[02:34] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: Your file looks ok, though I don't like the 'sleep 20' in rc.local, as it will cause the entire boot to pause for 20 seconds. I assume the unreliability comes from the same timing issues that caused you to add the sleep in the first place...
[02:35] <hypatia> jordan_: do you know how to open a terminal window?
[02:35] <hypatia> jordan_: applications -> accessories --> terminal
[02:35] <jordan_> Hypatia , yes
[02:35] <hypatia> jordan_: ok now type lsusb
[02:35] <green_> Hello every one, having trouble with my Drivers, I can only get wireless on Ubuntu 10.4 32bit not in 10.10 or any other Linux mint distro, or arch based o.s. for that matter.
[02:35] <jordan_> k
[02:35] <hypatia> green_: what wireless chipset is it?
[02:35] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki well idk, someone else suggested it after rc.local STILL wouldn't run the commands
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> jukelox: is there a bug report for it?
[02:36] <mickster04> moszer: what package?
[02:36] <jordan_> Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:8172 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8191S WLAN Adapter
[02:36] <theperfecttaco> green_ i had a similar problem in 10.10 - is your wireless option disabled completely?
[02:36] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: 573444 and 587072
[02:36] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki after some googling.....  couldn't I just add this to the crontab?
[02:36] <induz> maybe my comp can not handle KDE
[02:36] <theperfecttaco> and greyed out
[02:36] <bc81> theperfecttaco:  /SET irc_conf_mode 1
[02:36] <induz> should i download some s/w
[02:37] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: neither have resolutions, neither have any attention from the maintenance team
[02:37] <theperfecttaco> bc81: thanks
[02:37] <hypatia> ok jordan_ now search google or wherever for RTL8191S and ubuntu
[02:37] <linoge> induz: what's your problem?
[02:37] <induz> i need to set my display on KDE with  LUcid
[02:37] <coz_> preinstallation script errors can be PITA   sometimes purging the package can hel p   ..yes?
[02:37] <mickster04> moszer: you can double click .deb's to install them
[02:37] <induz> linoge, I can not change my dispaly/monitor setting to lower from 1284x
[02:37] <moszer> hold on mickster04
[02:37] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: do the commands not run, or do they run too soon to take effect?. Add some echo "running amixer" >> /tmp/local.log statements to the file to see if they show up in /tmp/local.log....
[02:38] <induz> linoge,  i can change it on Gnome but not on KDE
[02:38] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: you could use crontab instead, but until you know why it isn't working, you could just end up with the same problem..
[02:38] <nowimproved> I'm trying to install ubuntu with vsphere and am having no luck. It says that it can't find the mirror and just stops at 0 percent when installing?
[02:38] <green_> theperfecttaco: yes its totally disabled
[02:38] <ActionParsnip> jukelox: if there is a bug logged then its a known issue. You'll just have to watch the bugs
[02:39] <moszer> mickster04~its a tar.bz2, should i run it on terminal?
[02:39] <hypatia> jordan_: http://alexsleat.co.uk/2011/02/15/realtek-rtl8191s-in-ubuntu-10-10/ looks to be your answer
[02:39] <induz> 1280x1024[5:4] is set on Gnome but I can not change that on KDE
[02:39] <mickster04> moszer: that is probably best
[02:39] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki ok so add it to rc.local and reboot?   --> echo "running amixer" >> /tmp/local.log s
[02:39] <induz> linoge, 1280x1024[5:4] is set on Gnome but I can not change that on KDE
[02:39] <mickster04> moszer: there will be instructions how to install it

[02:39] <green_> theperfecttaco: "wifi is disabled by hardware button"
[02:39] <njero> hey all, I am trying to get dvbstream to work for my AverMediaVolorMAX usb card. I can scan channels with w_scan and I can view with "mplayer dvb://ChannelName". When I try to dvbstream though it won't lock
[02:39] <hypatia> jordan_: please keep it in the channel
[02:39] <induz> is some driver missing?
[02:39] <hypatia> green_: you need to flip your wifi switch
[02:40] <hypatia> on your laptop somewhere
[02:40] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: But it's not an issue for everyone, it's a limited scope issue, so I'm asking if anyone here has experience with it.
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> induz: no the drivers is the same
[02:40] <jordan_> ah, sorry, just getting confusing whos comments are going where
[02:40] <jordan_> lol
[02:40] <hypatia> jordan_: see the link i posted a bit ago
[02:40] <jordan_> i got it
[02:40] <green_> hypatia: yea it doesnt respond its a big flashing button next to my power button
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> induz: the settings on the driver in the DE may be different
[02:40] <RedXIII> hey. I'm having a problem with gnome-power-management not detecting that its in a discharge state on my laptop
[02:40] <theperfecttaco> green_: what type of system do you use?
[02:40] <jordan_> so dl that
[02:40] <induz> ActionParsnip, i liked KDE as i want to work on KDEnlive but now caz of this dsplay problem i can not
[02:40] <RedXIII> I run upower --dump and it says its AC-line in
[02:40] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki ok rebooting.... brb
[02:40] <hypatia> jordan_: yup... you'll also need to install the "build-essential" package
[02:40] <RedXIII> Any insight?
[02:41] <moszer> mickster04: thanks,but i did follow the instructions,lastly i copy & paste the code
[02:41] <ActionParsnip> induz: try a clean install of kubuntu
[02:41] <hypatia> in order for those instructions to work, jordan_
[02:41] <green_> theperfecttaco: ubuntu 10.4? or what do you mean?
[02:41] <FuseOnFire> is anyone able to have mental pictures or images in your mind?
[02:41] <jordan_> k, how do i dl it
[02:41] <induz> ActionParsnip, Iupgraded this from karmic?
[02:41] <hypatia> jordan_: use synaptic or apt-get
[02:41] <theperfecttaco> green_: hardware - desktop/laptop? manufacturer?
[02:41] <Loshki> ShapeShifter499: yes, add it then reboot, then look in /tmp/local.log. Maybe add a 2nd line at the end (before the exit 0) like: echo "ran amixer" >> /tmp/local.log so you can make sure the script executes all the way to the end...
[02:41] <induz> now i am on Lucid KDE with Gnome
[02:41] <jordan_> do i need to type a cmd in the terminal
[02:41] <bc81> green_: you have any blocks?  type the command >> rfkill list
[02:41] <hypatia> however you usually install software, jordan_
[02:41] <jordan_> haha, i just migrated from windows this week
[02:41] <mickster04> moszer: well it sounds like you have already unziped the package, you just need to go do the next thing
[02:42] <jordan_> so im an absolute noob with linux right now
[02:42] <green_> theperfecttaco: Laptop 64 bit, compaq presario CQ60
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> induz: from karmic kubuntu?
[02:42] <hypatia> jordan_: at a terminal: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:42] <coz_> jordan_,  this is the place to be then...
[02:42] <hypatia> jordan_: also, welcoem :)
[02:42] <bc81> !ot | FuseOnFire
[02:42] <green_> bc81: no no blocks
[02:42] <jordan_> k, its doing some stuff
[02:42] <theperfecttaco> green_: do you know the maker of your wireless card?
[02:42] <jordan_> thank you btw
[02:43] <mickster04> bc81: in general you can just ignore one off's like that
[02:43] <hypatia> jordan_: if you prefer a graphical interface for installing software, you can use applications --> ubuntu software center
[02:43] <jordan_> microsoft wanted over $600 to put an os on two htpc's, well not from me,lol
[02:43] <bc81> mickster04: will do xD
[02:43] <hypatia> jordan_: i run ubuntu on my htpc, it's lovely :)
[02:43] <jordan_> ah ok, seen that a bit already
[02:43] <hypatia> (and my tablet, and my netbook....)
[02:43] <hypatia> (and my servers...)
[02:43] <green_> theperfecttaco: no but let me check I just had it
[02:44] <hypatia> jordan_: the build-essential package includes some compilers and other tools for building software
[02:44] <jordan_> yeh i will do the same if i can get everything worked out, laptop, server, two htpc's
[02:44] <induz> from karmic ubuntu ActionParsnip
[02:44] <hypatia> which is what you're doing for that wifi card
[02:44] <jordan_> ah, cool
[02:44] <induz> ActionParsnip, Then downloaded KDE desktop plasma
[02:44] <moszer> mickster04: next thing i guess is to :cd" it in the terminal, correct me if i am wrong
[02:44] <canthus13> Any idea why maverick would just randomly go blindingly white for a second and then back to normal?
[02:44] <jordan_> so normally when i need to install something, i compile the driver and stuff myself
[02:44]  * canthus13 has the intel 4500MHD chipset.
[02:44] <hypatia> jordan_: for the htpc make sure you run the vdpau builds of mplayer to do graphics card accelleration for video playback
[02:44] <share> !ftp
[02:45] <mickster04> moszer: yeahg
[02:45] <jordan_> ah ok, maybe u can walk me throught that in a second
[02:45] <share> What is your favorite ftp client?
[02:45] <hypatia> jordan_: normally the drivers are just in the kernel, but for some wifi cards and a few other thigns, you end up needing to build them yourself
[02:45] <theperfecttaco> green_ i think compaq uses atheros
[02:45] <jordan_> back in the terminal the process has finished
[02:45] <hypatia> jordan_: also, plese try mentioning my name (hit tab to complete it) so your messages stick out for me
[02:45] <mickster04> share: a favourite is off topic
[02:45] <canthus13> compaq/hp uses a lot of different chipsets.
[02:45] <share> mickster04: ...
[02:45] <njero> if anyone has a suggestion for a better channel on dvbstream questions too, that would be great
[02:46] <share> Which FTP client do you recommend?
[02:46] <jordan_> Hypatia, gotcha
[02:46] <mickster04> !best
[02:46] <green_> theperfecttaco: yup that one is it
[02:46] <nowimproved> someone give me some proxy information
[02:46] <bc81> share: filezilla
[02:46] <nowimproved> so i can install this please
[02:46] <green_> theperfecttaco: dont have the info on me but that sounds correct
[02:46] <infox> Can someone help me install ubuntu 10.10?  I have a system with 5hdds and I want to install it on /dev/sdc since its the fastest of them all.  After I finish the install and reboot nothing happens, grub doesnt even attempt to load.  I booted into a live disc and reinstalled grub on /dev/sdc, rebooted and still nothing????
[02:46] <share> bc81: k tks
[02:46] <jordan_> test
[02:46] <share> test
[02:46] <jordan_> how do i get them to stick to u
[02:46] <mickster04> infox: you probably don't wanto install grub there, unless your pc boots to it first?
[02:46] <BlueProtoman> Hello.
[02:47] <hypatia> infox: try picking the third drive to boot first in the bios
[02:47] <theperfecttaco> green_: my problem was that there was a miscommunication between the wireless card and the system - the card was telling the system that it was hard disabled when it actually wasn't
[02:47] <coz_> njero,  try  # dbox2
[02:47] <Jordan_U> infox: Are you sure that you're booting from /dev/sdc? What exactly does happen when you try to boot?
[02:47] <BlueProtoman> I'm leaning more and more towards switching to Ubuntu...
[02:47] <infox> It is already selected to boot from that drive
[02:47] <infox> nothing
[02:47] <BlueProtoman> What's the difference between the netbook and desktop versions?
[02:47] <infox> no messages
[02:47] <theperfecttaco> green_: this is a long shot, but try "sudo rmmod -f "compaq_laptop"
[02:47] <infox> it finishes the post and does nothing
[02:47] <njero> coz_: thanks will do
[02:47] <jordan_> Hypatia, how do i get my comments to stick to u again
[02:47] <mickster04> infox: well try the different drives and see if one of them works
[02:47] <infox> :|
[02:48] <hypatia> jordan_: you just did :)
[02:48] <jordan_> lol, i wish, i typed it
[02:48] <hypatia> jordan_: oh hit tab
[02:48] <hypatia> that completes the name
[02:48] <jordan_> test
[02:48] <hypatia> jordan_: so like hyp<tab>
[02:48] <rww> BlueProtoman: The netbook edition has a user interface tailored to netbooks and different default programs. Apart from that, they're the same.
[02:48] <IdleOne> jordan_: type hyp and hit the tab key one time
[02:48] <jordan_> hypatia, ahhhhhhhh
[02:48] <jordan_> got it
[02:48] <green_> theperfecttaco: had no response from terminal
[02:48] <jordan_> hypatia,  got it
[02:48] <nowimproved> Hey. I need a proxy to download ubuntu, anyone please help.
[02:49] <BlueProtoman> Would Ubuntu work on a Dell Inspiron Mini?  I think it's designed to work on a lot of things, but...
[02:49] <hypatia> jordan_: did you get build-essential working?
[02:49] <jordan_> hypatia,  so my terminal has finsihed doing whatever it does
[02:49] <mickster04> !tab
[02:49] <hypatia> BlueProtoman: dell sells minis with ubuntu preloaded, i expect it'll work pretty well
[02:49] <rww> BlueProtoman: It works fine on my Mini 10v.
[02:49] <hypatia> :)
[02:49] <green_> theperfecttaco: nvm now it works
[02:49] <jordan_> hypatia,  dunno, i installed like u mentioned
[02:49] <scott__> kl
[02:49] <dazonic> I just upgraded a VPS to 10.04 and lost ssh access but I do have access via linode's lish.... where should i start
[02:49] <nowimproved> Hey. I need a proxy to download ubuntu, anyone please help.
[02:49] <theperfecttaco> green_: write down that command - i have to use it periodically to re-enable my wireless
[02:50] <hypatia> jordan_: gonna take this to pm as it's a bit complex from here
[02:50] <green_> theperfecttaco: and it says no such file or directory
[02:50] <njero> coz_: was dbox2 a channel name or a tool?
[02:50] <jordan_> hypatia, k
[02:50] <Jordan_U> nowimproved: What do you mean?
[02:50] <theperfecttaco> green_: oh. balls.
[02:50] <coz_> njero,  channel name    type   /join #dbox2
[02:50] <theperfecttaco> green_: it could be that your wireless card has a proprietary driver. check System>Administration>Hardware drivers
[02:50] <nowimproved> Jordan_U, i'm going through vsphere if asks for a proxy or when i'm going to download it just stalls at 0 percent
[02:50] <njero> coz_: yeah I joined, it is empty
[02:50] <green_> theperfecttaco: but im in 10.4 right now, were the wifi works
[02:50] <rww> dazonic: run "sudo service ssh start" and see if you get errors
[02:50] <coz_> njero,  o0
[02:51] <nowimproved> the specified ubuntu archive mirror is either not available, or does not exist.
[02:51] <coz_> njero,   al darn ,,, then google the name of the app +  irc channel   example    gimp irc channel
[02:51] <miel> i am trying to update the crontab file but i don't know how to save the command i am using is "sudo crontab -e -u root"
[02:51] <nateddgg> hi, is there a channel for portable ubuntu
[02:51] <and> jest tu ktos z polski
[02:51] <theperfecttaco> green_: same system? in that case, i don't know..
[02:51] <BlueProtoman> Is Ubuntu for netbooks designed for really, really weak netbooks?
[02:51] <bc81> !pl | and
[02:51] <green_> theperfecttaco: same system
[02:51] <BlueProtoman> Or is my Inspiron Mini good enough for the desktop version?
[02:52] <rww> BlueProtoman: I prefer Desktop on mine.
[02:52] <dazonic> rww:      init: ssh pre-start process (845) terminated with status 1
[02:52] <dazonic> start: Job failed to start
[02:52] <green_> theperfecttaco: I do check the "hardware drivers" but none show, the drivers are installed but there is no comunication in the activate wifi BUTTON.
[02:53] <rww> dazonic: well, that would be why. I'd recommend looking in /var/log and seeing if you can find a more specific error message.
[02:54] <green_> theperfecttaco: I have linux mint (all of them) archbang, frugalware, slax, and many other live CD/DVD but wireless doesnt work with them... well just the activate wireless button
[02:55] <alakhia> what is a good channel to discuss video editing?
[02:55] <theperfecttaco> green_: have you tried "sudo lshw enable <interface>"
[02:55] <green_> theperfecttaco: *well just the activate wireless button" is the one that is stupid
[02:55] <ShapeShifter499> Loshki, I rebooted 4 times and the commands on;y worked 2 times
[02:55] <semitones> is "checkinstall" still the thing to use when compiling from source? or is that soo 2009
[02:55] <ShapeShifter499> *only
[02:56] <recoil_> bc81: thank you very much i managed showing the artist , track, and a cover art thank you very much for your help
[02:56] <bc81> recoil_: welcome :-)
[02:56] <green_> theperfecttaco: no I have not, im writing them all down and going to try them in the other O.S. in a bit
[02:56] <medberry> semitones, I don't know of another tool that accomplishes the same thing
[02:57] <semitones> ok cool :)
[02:57] <RedXIII> Is there a way to get ubuntu to turn off some features automatically when switching from AC power to battery power on mobile devices?
[02:57] <njero> coz_: lol, first hit on google for dvbstream irc help is this channel :)
[02:57] <coz_> njero,   ooo lol
[02:57] <RedXIII> Like instead of using quality compiz, it switches to performance compiz
[02:58] <green_> theperfecttaco: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[02:58] <njero> I'll figure this out.. slowly but surely
[02:58] <theperfecttaco> green_: <interface> will be wlan0 or 1 or eth0 or 1 or something of the sort.
[02:58] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, still there?
[02:58] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ya
[02:58] <green_> oooo hahaha
[02:58] <green_> ok
[02:59] <alakhia> i basically have mp4 files that i wish to trim and replace the entire audio track with another one
[02:59] <swazzy> anyone know's any website's where i can get icons from?
[02:59] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, I think you're going to need the sleep commands, try putting sleep 10 at the beginning and sleep 5 after each command it's not ideal but I think you should be able to get it to work
[02:59] <green_> theperfecttaco: what is somthing (command) you would do if your wireless activation button was to break?
[02:59] <alakhia> i would like to avoid re-encoding the video to do this. Suggestions?
[02:59] <recoil_> swazzy: gnome-look.org
[02:59] <theperfecttaco> green_: if you have a disable/enable radio button on your keyboard - type "rfkill list" in terminal, hit your radio button and type the command again and see if there's a change in the output
[03:00] <theperfecttaco> green_: do you mean hardware button or a software button?
[03:00] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I've been google-ing  and I'm wondering... why not use crontab
[03:01] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, what's the advantage?
[03:01] <g_0_0> have you got the correct driver for your soundcard?
[03:01] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, yes
[03:01] <green_> theperfecttaco: the physical button
[03:01] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, is it an old soundcard, I've only come across this problem with old machines?
[03:02] <theperfecttaco> green_: sudo lshw -enable <wireless interface> is the terminal command equivalent to the physical button
[03:02] <alakhia> !video editing
[03:02] <mickster04> alakhia: why not use audacity?
[03:03] <alakhia> mickster04: hmm, isn't that just for audio?
[03:03] <mjn> hi all...new to this..
[03:03] <green_> theperfecttaco: thank you, just something I would want to try, in the rfkill list nothing would show up
[03:03] <mickster04> alakhia: oh of course :/ my bad
[03:03] <green_> neather before or after the button
[03:03] <miketomdool> avidemux is good for video editing...
[03:03] <ramon> hi all
[03:03] <mickster04> alakhia: pitivi is included by default
[03:03] <ohsix> alakhia: pitivi comes with ubuntu
[03:03] <miketomdool> go to getdeb.com to get it
[03:03] <Prinler> Anyone think a AIW 9800 would work well with ubuntu? How about XBMC
[03:04] <alakhia> miketomdool: can i trim a video without reencoding? that is what i'm looking for
[03:04] <theperfecttaco> green_: good luck. msg me later if you need any more help, i'll do what i can
[03:04] <mjn> just tried to install cinepaint from source archive....got what looks like some unmet dependencies....good resource for learning how to figure out what they are and resolve?
[03:04] <green_> theperfecttaco: the rfkill list" wouldnt do anything... just would get the same wifi is disabled by hardware button.
[03:04] <ramon> im having problems with wifi: whenever the laptop goes on battery power, the wifi gets really really slow.
[03:04] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, this problem had showed up a few months back when I used pulseaudio to do something, I accidentally muted something and ever since my computer allways booted with the Speaker channel muted
[03:05] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, and prior to that you had no problem?
[03:05] <green_> theperfecttaco: for sure man thank you for all your help btw you got the best Nick name i've seen
[03:05] <ohsix> ramon: tha'ts the wifi going into power saving mode; what chipset? you need to use iwpriv to disable power saving on broadcoam chips with the wl driver, iw should work for all the open source drivers
[03:05] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, yep
[03:05] <theperfecttaco> green_: hahaha, thanks. it's a tom robbins reference :p
[03:05] <miketomdool> alakhia: what video format is it currently in?
[03:06] <ActionParsnip> ramon: are there any bugs logged?
[03:06] <alakhia> miketomdool: i think the canon videocam uses h264 compression
[03:06] <mickster04> alakhia: i don't think that is at all possible? you still have to stitch the sound and video back together again?
[03:07] <ramon> ohsix: how do i do that?
[03:07] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, ok do -> alsactl init   - if the system is correct, try alsactl store and reboot
[03:07] <mufasis> can someone point me in the right direction for how to manage ubuntu server
[03:07] <mickster04> !server
[03:07] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, iirc I switched the output to headphone only in pulseaudio, and then this issue arose
[03:07] <ramon> ActionParsnip:how do i check for bugs?
[03:07] <alakhia> mickster04: i was hoping i could at least trim without reencoding
[03:07] <mickster04> alakhia: I assume you could mute it?
[03:07] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, for a reason?
[03:07] <alakhia> mickster04: perhaps replacing the audio would not be that easy ... and i could do that last
[03:07] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, can you change it back again?
[03:08] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I did change it back
[03:08] <alakhia> mickster04: right, or just drop the audio without re-encoding
[03:08] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, and I did it so sound wouldn't play durring a remote control session
[03:08] <mickster04> alakhia: try it
[03:08] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, sound wouldn't play at home
[03:08] <g_0_0> ok do as I described above, comment out  the lines in rc.local by placing a # at the beginning of each line
[03:09] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, obviously not the exit line
[03:09] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, just the lines you added
[03:09] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ok
[03:09] <alakhia> thanks ohsix, miketomdool and mickster04
[03:10] <nowimproved> dude seriously i need a mirror for 8.10
[03:10] <nowimproved> please
[03:10] <xangua> nowimproved: 8.10 is no longer supported
[03:10] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ok now what?
[03:10] <wangxiyue> what is mirror  i'am a new man  :)
[03:11] <alakhia> i'll check out pitivi and avidemux
[03:11] <jukelox> ActionParsnip: The maverick .deb for libmtp8 installed just fine on my lucid box. I think there may be an issue with the package. Is there any way to get the maintainers to put the deb in the old repository?
[03:11] <mickster04> wangxiyue: if you don't know you don't have to say anything
[03:11] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I've all ready tried  alsactl init and alsactl store
[03:11] <miel> when running "sudo crontab -e" how do i save and break out?
[03:11] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, the system just isn't saving any of my audio settings

[03:16] <ramon> how do i permanently disable wifi power management? because "sudo iwconfig eth1 power off" only temporarily disables it.
[03:17] <xangua> fabian: sudo apt-get install msn-pecan
[03:17] <xangua> and change your account from MSN to WLM, it also works on pidgin
[03:17] <rootsecurity> how to  the install Add printer On Linux
[03:17] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, do it without sudo then :)
[03:18] <ActionParsnip> ramon: what module does the interface use?
[03:19] <ramon> ActionParsnip:what you mean by module?...im using the STA driver, if thats what you mean.
[03:19] <drexl> rootsecurity: http://localhost:631/
[03:19] <ActionParsnip> ramon: if you run: sudo lshw -C network   you'll see the driver listed
[03:19] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, everything works till      alsactl: save_state:1532: Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing: Permission denied
[03:19] <mickster04> zlatan: ?

[03:20] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, I'm going to sudo rm this file and start over

[03:22] <rootsecurity> Thank Much
[03:22] <ramon> ActionParsnip:oh i hadnt waited for the command to finish. but i dont see anything about module when i run that command
[03:22] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, one second
[03:22] <mickster04> zlatan: i said that a while ago, i forgot what your question was
[03:22] <scottnyc> what are some must have system software installs for ubuntu 10
[03:23] <zlatan> mickster04, what is the name of that screensaver
[03:23] <hipkat> Hate to barge in, but I have probably an easy question....
[03:23] <coz_> scottnyc,  that is a real "loaded"  question
[03:23] <scottnyc> lol
[03:23] <drexl> scottnyc: vlc
[03:23] <coz_> scottnyc,   what do you like to do?  graphics...music composition... writing  ???
[03:24] <ramon> ActionParsnip: BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY...is that what you meant?
[03:24] <rootsecurity> thank much
[03:24] <ubuntunoob> how do i hide recovery mode in grub2?
[03:24] <nowimproved> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/
[03:25] <hipkat> anyone here familiar with adb in Ubuntu?
[03:25] <Da|Mummy> anyone have any idea why my wifi keeps dropping?
[03:25] <drexl> rootsecurity: cool I'm guessing you got your printer installed.
[03:25] <coz_> scottnyc,  if you give some idea of your interests  that would helpful :)
[03:25] <Da|Mummy> even if its for a mere 10seconds
[03:25] <Secret1222> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[03:25] <rootsecurity> i want to the link for add printer no linux
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> ramon: read the rest. There will be a bit saying: driver=
[03:25] <Secret1222> whats this mean
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> Da|Mummy: when it drops, run:  dmesg | tail   and pastebin the output
[03:25] <coz_> Secret1222,  you probably have synaptic opened
[03:26] <Secret1222> and theres no progress  running
[03:26] <Jordan_U> ubuntunoob: Uncomment GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY=true in /etc/default/grub then run "sudo update-grub".
[03:26] <mickster04> zlatan: i dunno,google it
[03:26] <Secret1222> execpt a folder
[03:26] <Secret1222> firefox and chatzilla
  i want to the link for add printer on linux
[03:26] <coz_> Secret1222,  something is still accessing apt
[03:26] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, ok in light of the fact we have found an easy solution and it was working before try this -->  sudo aptitude --purge reinstall linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils linux-image-`uname -r` linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` libasound2
[03:26] <rishav> Hey, I wanted to know how to increase the level of RGBA transparency. I have enabled it, but its almost negligible. I'm on Lucid.
[03:26] <Secret1222> like what
[03:26] <ramon> ActionParsnip:oh! its wl0
[03:26] <Secret1222> how do i find out what?
[03:27] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, haven't*
[03:27] <drexl> rootsecurity: please re-phrase the question..
[03:27] <Secret1222> how do i find out what is useing apt
[03:27] <coz_> rishav,  I believe  gnome-color-chooser can help ...but... I have only used it a few times and not sure of all of its settings   you will have to google for that
[03:27] <ActionParsnip> ramon: ok then hunt around to see if there is a module option on wl0 to see if you can turn of power management
[03:28] <xangua> Secret1222: do you have software centre/synaptic running¿
[03:28] <coz_> Secret1222,  well first see if synaptic is opened  if not  you could just restart x   with   ctrl+alt+F1   log in   then    sudo   restart gdm
[03:28] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: you can do it with iw or iwpriv
[03:28] <rishav> coz_: I tried it, but there's only an option to enable/disable. I'v googled this issue too, but only found some unanswered threads. thanks anyways, I'll check it out again in case I missed on something.
[03:28] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ok
[03:28] <Secret1222> how do i find out if synaptic is running
[03:29] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: 2 prongs of attack then
[03:29] <ActionParsnip> Secret1222: ps -ef | grep -i syna
[03:29] <coz_> rishav,  I know gnome-color-chooser has a metacity  tab I believe it was...that is where the rgba can be adjusted
[03:29] <Guest75341> Yay, the filesystem and swap are expanded.
[03:29] <rishav> coz_: okayy thnx :)
[03:29] <coz_> rishav,  or look in   gconf-editor
[03:30] <Secret1222> harley@Harley:~$ ps -ef | grep -i syna
[03:30] <Secret1222> harley    4072  4040  0 14:29 pts/3    00:00:00 grep --color=auto -i syna
[03:30] <Secret1222> whats that
[03:30] <rishav> coz_: ok I'll do that too.
[03:30] <dataviruset> someone here good at NUT (ups monitoring software)? i'm trying to attach my working driver ("blazer_usb") to it (which i know works)

[03:31] <jordan_> high
[03:31] <hypatia> jordan_: keep the files around - if you upgrade to a new kernel, you'll need to do the make/sudo make install part again
[03:31] <jordan_> i will test in  a minute which will require me to unplug but just wantedt to let u know
[03:32] <jordan_> ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, dangit
[03:32] <jordan_> lol

[03:36] <bill> someone help me with filesharing
[03:36] <bill> please
[03:36] <drexl> bill: add your user to the group which you would like to share with
[03:36] <chikokishi> I just installed ubuntu 10.10 again, i am afraid to update it because everytime i do i get internet errors, sound problems, and two ubuntu loaders.  Help?
[03:37] <ActionParsnip> bill: install samba and you can use nautilus to share folders
[03:37] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: if you attempt to enable shared folders it will offer to install all the right parts
[03:37] <ActionParsnip> chikokishi: 2 ubuntu loaders? Don't you mean 2 kernels?
[03:37] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: I don't trust stuff like that, I advise the ways I know it will work
[03:38] <Secret1222> http://paste.ubuntu.com/570371/
[03:38] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: heh
[03:38] <chikokishi> ActionParship, sure.  The menu that comes up when you turn the computer on and you decide between windows and ubuntu
[03:38] <Secret1222> look
[03:38] <bill> i have samba installed but its not working
[03:38] <chikokishi> i have 2 ubuntu options.  But right now i only have one (before updating)
[03:38] <Roasted> about to punch rhythmbox in the face
[03:38] <ActionParsnip> chikokishi: yes, one is an updated kernel. If the new kernel is ok (test it a few days) then you can remove the older kernel if you want to save ~120Mb space
[03:38] <bill> says the packages are not installed that i need
[03:39] <ActionParsnip> bill: in nautilus you can right click folders and share them
[03:39] <bill> but the package manager says that samba is installed
[03:39] <Secret1222> so how come that error is comeing up
[03:39] <bill> i get a 255 error
[03:39] <JeffCBR> ll
[03:39] <Secret1222> http://paste.ubuntu.com/570371/
[03:39] <Secret1222> look
[03:39] <Secret1222> how do i fix it
[03:39] <chikokishi> ActionParsnip what exactly is a kernel?  Also. as i said my errors dont start till after the update.  I lose internet in one, and sound in the other
[03:40] <chikokishi> My computer just froze, i cant click anywhere but in this dialog =(
[03:40] <Secret1222> whats  syna
[03:40] <Secret1222> thats what it said
[03:40] <Jordan_U> !sysrq | chikokishi
[03:41] <Jordan_U> chikokishi: Hopefully it won't be needed, but keep that information handy in case it is.
[03:41] <kj6lxu> y is it when i start a torrent it starts downloading at 1.2 mbps but then slows to 600 kbps ??
[03:41] <g_0_0> Roasted, have you still not got rhythmbox and your sansa to work?
[03:41] <Roasted> no
[03:42] <Roasted> its a piece of garbage
[03:42] <Roasted> I got it to work on about 3 occasions
[03:42] <karabaja4> logout
[03:42] <g_0_0> which sansa is it?
[03:42] <Roasted> but it's been the most inconsistent piece of garbage ever
[03:42] <Roasted> fuze
[03:42] <Roasted> rhythmbox is like that part time punk employee at burger king who only shows up to work half of the time
[03:42] <Roasted> oh hi, I see your music
[03:42] <Jordan_U> kj6lxu: Does it only happen with bittorrent or does it also happen with other downloads (like http)?
[03:42] <Roasted> LOL JUST KIDDING NOT ANYMORE
[03:42] <FloodBot1> Roasted: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:42] <Roasted> shut up
[03:42] <g_0_0> have you got the mtp plugin enabled in rhythmbox?
[03:42] <Roasted> yes, but I'm not even using MTP
[03:43] <chikokishi> Thanks jordan, i pagemarked it
[03:43] <madmn> i have samba installed and i am still getting errors when i try and share a folder help please
[03:43] <Roasted> it wont mount as MTP. It says something about a camera being locked. Yet this thing doesn't have a camera?????????
[03:43] <kj6lxu> jordan_U : with all downloads
[03:43] <g_0_0> Roasted, disable the plugin and use msc
[03:43] <ohsix> Roasted: cammeras are MTP devices too; something else might have it open if it says that
[03:44] <ohsix> (like banshee, if you have rb and banshee running at the same time)
[03:44] <chikokishi> IF i update my system is there a way to go back to the un updated version?
[03:44] <hypatia> chikokishi: there is, but it's annoying
[03:44] <hypatia> chikokishi: it's easy for individual packages, though
[03:44] <Roasted> ohsix, banshee isn't open from what I see. sys monitor says nothing abou ti.
[03:44] <Roasted> its refreshing now, I disabled ipod and MTP and I'm going to try it again.
[03:44] <Jordan_U> kj6lxu: It sounds like your ISP is trying to make it appear that you are getting the full speed you payed for by allowing bursts of high bandwidth then throttling if you try to sustain that speed. Read your contract carefully / contact your ISP to confirm what service you are really getting.
[03:45] <ubuntunoob> can someone help me with a weird problem? for some reason I can connect to MSN with Pidgin and amsn but I get an error in Empathy
[03:45] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, still not working
[03:45] <kj6lxu> Jordan_U: tnx for the help
[03:45] <Jordan_U> kj6lxu: You're welcome.
[03:45] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, it is still muted upon reboot
[03:45] <xangua> ubuntunoob: sudo apt-get install msn-pecan
[03:45] <xangua> works for pidgin & empathy, restart them and change your MSN accout to WLM
[03:46] <rww> Jordan_U: good call. Comcast does do that.
[03:46] <ubuntunoob> thank you xangua
[03:46] <Roasted> big surprise. didn't work.
[03:46] <Roasted> importing 0/0, except theres 1100 songs on it. awesome.
[03:46] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, ok try unmuting now and reboot again, see if it sticks this time
[03:46] <xangua> ubuntunoob: latest pidgin also works but it has some issues currently with msn
[03:47] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, should I run aslactl store?
[03:47] <ShapeShifter499> no I'm just going to reboot now brb
[03:48] <g_0_0> Roasted, you have got the latest firmware on your fuze?
[03:48] <Roasted> not only do I have the latest firmware, but I dual boot it with rockbox firmware too
[03:48] <Roasted> WEEEEEEEEEE
[03:48] <bc81> question, is it possible to increase the overall bluetooth buffer size?  i have bluetooth headphones, and when i walk more than 10 feet away from the computer, the audio starts dropping out.
[03:48] <Roasted> g_0_0, I can put music on it, don't get me wrong. But I want to set up PLAYLISTS, and rhythmbox does that. Tha's why I want to use it.
[03:48] <Roasted> I have no clue why rhythmbox is being like this.
[03:48] <Stevezau> ffs
[03:49] <Stevezau> why is gdm still startin??
[03:49] <Stevezau> i told it to not load on startup
[03:49] <ActionParsnip> bc81: if its a class 3 device then that's its effective range: http://www.blueunplugged.com/What-is-Bluetooth.aspx
[03:50] <Diamondcite> Roasted: I've been wondering.. Does a playlist actually physically COPY the files?
[03:50] <Diamondcite> Roasted: I've seen people move their itunes playlist to their ipod.. as in just the playlist... without the files...
[03:50] <Roasted> Diamondcite, no
[03:50] <Roasted> it doesnt duplicate the file space
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> Diamondcite: no, its just a list of the media to play and sometimes where it is
[03:50] <Roasted> Diamondcite, it just creates a file the gizmo references
[03:51] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Have you ever compared one of your sansa's playlist files with your own creations?
[03:52] <Roasted> Diamondcite, I've only made playlists in rhythmbox cause it was the only program that worked, until rhythmbox decided to stop working all together
[03:52] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, it still muted
[03:52] <bilios> hi
[03:52] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, well not muted but it comes up with the sound turned all the way down in alsamixer
[03:52] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Do you still have one of those working playlists around to compare them with to see what is different? (it doens't help that I don't use rythmbox...)
[03:52] <Roasted> Diamondcite, yes, theres 2 playlists on the device itself.
[03:53] <Roasted> Diamondcite, whats the point tho? I dont want to create playlists ON the device. I want to create them in a program because its much more efficient
[03:53] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, was the sound down when you rebooted, you could try adjusting the sound to the required volume and rebooting
[03:53] <g_0_0> Roasted, have you seen this -> http://wiki.birth-online.de/know-how/hardware/sandisk-sansa-fuze/rhythmbox
[03:53] <Riobe> Hello all. :) I'm looking to switch to Linux and my main time waster will be some Java programming. Is Ubuntu a distro that's well suited for this goal?
[03:53] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, yes, and I have
[03:53] <Nitrohax> Riobe, yes
[03:53] <Roasted> g_0_0, I saw that I should create an EMPTY file named that, but never with the contens like that
[03:53] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, it won't save my changes
[03:54] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, ok let me think about that
[03:54] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Well I'm curious as to how it's writting the file link.. maybe it is now writting /home/roasted/Desktop/music/01-Hello_World.mp3 instead of 01-Hello_World.mp3 ?
[03:54]  * Sifo Hello all
[03:54] <Nitrohax> Riobe, how are you going to install it?
[03:55] <Riobe> Nitrohax: Probably do a live boot for a day or so to get the feel of it then reformat my machine and make it the only OS.
[03:55] <ActionParsnip> Diamondcite: you can make playlists of folder contents using ls, as well as the dir command in windows
[03:55] <Diamondcite> ActionParsnip: I am mainly trying to figure out why Roasted's playlist is no longer working as desired.
[03:56] <Nitrohax> Riobe, that will work but you can do a WUBI install and have a perm. and not change the file structure of your partition
[03:56] <ActionParsnip> Diamondcite: depends how the device reads and/or makes playlists
[03:56] <Roasted> Diamondcite, the playlist works. rhythmbox just doesnt detect any music on the device.
[03:56] <whitefire> Help me about Hybrid Graphics with switcheroo. I'm using acer aspire 5745G
[03:56] <Roasted> Diamondcite, once I can get rhythmbox working as, you know, a normal music program, I can carry on with my playlist creations
[03:56] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: try this:  cd /folder/of/songs; ls *.mp3 > ./playlist.m3u
[03:56] <Diamondcite> Roasted: And the only requirement is to have to look else where for music?
[03:56] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, have you tried alsactl store again?
[03:57] <MrDetail> does anyone know why   grep [A-Z]   would return lines without caps even if there is no match?
[03:57] <crlcan81> Can someone help me with properly installing burg? I've got the first necessary sudo commands, adding the ppa, updating repositories, then installing from the new repository, but I don't know for sure where the master boot record is located so burg can install.
[03:57] <Riobe> Nitrohax: I broke my filesystem into two partitions when I installed Windows, and I'd like to get back down to 1. I haven't heard of WIBI install yet, so I'm not sure if I can change partitioning with that kind of install.
[03:57] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: copy /folder/of/songs to the device then see if playlist.m3u exists/works
[03:57] <Roasted> Diamondcite, if I can have a program that *works* and can make and create playlists, I'd be happy. But besides banshee, there are none I have found on linux. But! Banshee, when I create playulists, it doesnt "save" to the device. If I go to the sansa, banshee playlists come up empty. only rhythmbox playlists work.
[03:57] <Nitrohax> Riobe, you wouldn't need to change it
[03:57] <Roasted> Hence my insane frustration.
[03:57] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, the playlist works...
[03:57] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, my issue is getting rhythmbox to detect the music.
[03:58] <Roasted> It says importing 0/0, when there are over a thousand songs on the thing.
[03:58] <Riobe> Nitrohax: Methinks I should figure out what a WUBI install is. To scholar Gugle!
[03:58] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: i dont use rhythmnbox so I'm not much help here. I always manually make them using ls
[03:58] <whitefire> I haven't folder call /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
[03:58] <Riobe> Thanks for giving me something to look up. :)
[03:58] <whitefire> I haven't folder call /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch can I create?
[03:59] <Nitrohax> Riobe, it's on the live cd already. if you put the live cd in it's on there. it's a way where ig you don't like it add/remove programs and it come off
[03:59] <MiladKhajavi> HELP: How can I set pidgin to notify new message with gnome notification? any plugin ?
[04:00] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Can you open the Sansa with a file manager and actually see the music?
[04:00] <mickster04> MiladKhajavi: have you looked at the included plug ins?
[04:00] <adamruffolo> whitefire: did you try "mkdir"?
[04:00] <Roasted> Diamondcite, sure can.
[04:00] <mickster04> MiladKhajavi: also don't sound so dramatic
[04:00] <pinoyoragon> Can somebody recommend a web-based/console download manager so I can manage download from remote?
[04:00] <Nitrohax> Riobe, let me know what you find
[04:00] <Diamondcite> Roasted: And Inside rythmbox, right click music, Import Folder, Navigating to the same place with the graphical navigation and then clicking import.. doesn't work?
[04:00] <Yoha> Greets
[04:01] <MiladKhajavi> mickster04: Yes, but dont like sound notification, I like gnome notification
[04:01] <Riobe> Nitrohax: Thanks. Will do. :)
[04:01] <juabn> how work ubuntu wubi?
[04:01] <ActionParsnip> MiladKhajavi: there is the notify plugin which is enabled by default
[04:01] <mickster04> MiladKhajavi: yeah I think there will be one include, if it isn;t on already
[04:01] <Roasted> Diamondcite, nope. It doesnt even show anything in my device within rhythmbox
[04:01] <xangua> MiladKhajavi: activate libnotify plugin
[04:01] <juabn> work slow
[04:01] <juabn> i don't know why
[04:01] <ActionParsnip> pidgin rocks
[04:02] <juabn> wubi is simil  virtualbox
[04:02] <juabn> ??
[04:02] <MiladKhajavi> xangua: Oh yes yes I forgotten the name of this plugin. thanks thanks alottttttt
[04:02] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, oh.... sorry didn't see your post till now
[04:02] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Can you please type the path you are using to reach it with in rythmbox here?
[04:02] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, no I haven't
[04:02] <whitefire> adamruffolo: mkdir: cannot create directory `/sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo': Operation not permitted
[04:02] <Stupendoussteve> juabn: No, wubi doesn't run in a virtual machine, you have to reboot into Ubuntu
[04:02] <mickster04> whitefire: sudo it
[04:02] <adamruffolo> whitefire: are you running as root?
[04:02] <Yoha> I'm having a problem with this network install; I've got an old machine booting with pxe; The installer wont download files off of my lan server (I have the iso mounted in /ubuntu) ... in the install debug its because it can't access the md5 sums from a release site.  Anyone have any suggestions on how I can complete this install?   Wubi installs run on the actual hardware, without a VM between them, but installs to a loopback filesystem instead of a normal partition.
[04:02] <Roasted> Diamondcite, there is one thing that strikes me as odd.
[04:02] <mickster04> whitefire: sudo !! to run the last ocmmand as sudo
[04:03] <Nitrohax> juabn, kinda, wubi installs ubuntu on the windows partition. it has a boot loader and if you don't like it go to add/remove programs and remove it
[04:03] <Aikar> anyone recommend a panel applet for managing volume that works with the base audio drivers and not pulseaudio? had to uninstall pulseaudio cause it distorts sound
[04:03] <whitefire> mickster04: yes
[04:03] <Roasted> Diamondcite, my sansa used to come up labeled as "SANSA FUZE". I formatted it within the sandisk interface, and now it comes mounted as 1234-5678. it creates a folder with those numbers.
[04:03] <Roasted> Diamondcite, that's around the time my issues started.
[04:03] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, you could give it a go, see what happens, make sure you have the parameters set as you want them first
[04:03] <whitefire> mickster04: bonsai@Aspire-5745G:~$ sudo mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo
[04:03] <halaszvarig> I just created a simple Xubuntu bluebird like chrome theme (only the frame color was changed to match the color from the theme): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hedddjdackneeciinimepakidindpgdd
[04:03] <whitefire> mkdir: cannot create directory `/sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo': Operation not permitted
[04:03]  * Nitrohax is going to party with the amish
[04:03] <Aikar> and is there a site to find more applets (ie a site specific to applets in general)
[04:03] <Nitrohax> stupid file transfer vbox @#$%^&*(&^%$#@!%#$%^&*(&^%$#@
[04:03] <Roasted> Diamondcite, but if I go to gparted to try to rename the label of it, it says the disk is unallocated. Someone told me its sandisk's way of "protecting" the device.
[04:03] <ActionParsnip> Aikar: if you use a dock like avant window navigator, there are volume managers for that
[04:03] <mickster04> whitefire: dod you tab complete that?
[04:03] <Riobe> Nitrohax That makes more sense now. Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm looking to get out of using Windows at home.
[04:04] <liveCD> hola
[04:04] <Riobe> Nitrohax, So I'm sure that I want Windows nuked.
[04:04] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Now why would you want to use a sandisk tool on something working to begin with >.>
[04:04] <scottnyc> i wanna install apache, php and mysql will this work? correctly ? sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-xsl php5-gd php-pear libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql
[04:04] <MichaelDeaton> Hello does anyone here know how to install FlightGear on Ubuntu 10.10?
[04:04] <ActionParsnip> !lamp | scottnyc
[04:04] <Nitrohax> Riobe, just incase you don't like it. but you want it nuked full install it, why partition. back your music and videos up thouhg. LOL
[04:04] <Roasted> Diamondcite, I used the format tool because of another issue I was having with it.
[04:04] <Roasted> Diamondcite, but then rhythmbox took a bomb after tha.
[04:04] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: its in the playdeb ppa
[04:04] <Roasted> Diamondcite, I flahsed the thing to the latest firmware, etc. I just have no clue. I'm so close to buying a new one, but that's a ridiculous answer.
[04:05] <MichaelDeaton> I tried installing it and it said, "flightgear:  Depends: libalut0 (>=1.1.0-1) but it is not installable  Depends: libopenscenegraph65 (>=2.8.3) but it is not installable  Depends: libopenthreads13 (>=2.8.3) but it is not installable  Depends: libplib1 (>=1.8.5-1) but it is not installable  Depends: simgear2.0.0 but it is not going to be installed  "
[04:05] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Maybe that numbered partition is a ghost? Have you tried doing "ls /media/1234-5678" while it's mounted?
[04:05] <Riobe> Nitrohax: Heheh, yeah, that I will be doing. I have a spare tower I can move stuff over to temporarily.
[04:06] <Roasted> Diamondcite, when the thing is plugged in MCP mode or whatever it is, yes it has a directory there.
[04:06] <Nitrohax> Riobe, use one of those all in one hd readers for usb. I have a ide and a sata hot swap port. But i fix to many computers
[04:06] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: then you need deb files or a reop with those files to satisfy deps
[04:06] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, ok rebooting
[04:06] <MichaelDeaton> But I dunno how to get them.
[04:06] <MichaelDeaton> :C
[04:06] <Hellz_Bellz> do the ubuntu source repos contain unmodified source code or is it optimised for ubuntu spicifically?
[04:06] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: if you can pastebin all the text I can try and find deps for you
[04:06] <MichaelDeaton> pastebin?
[04:06] <Diamondcite> Roasted: Could you try various modes of access until one of them actually yields a fully listed direction inside a terminal?
[04:06] <Nitrohax> !pastebin
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: yes, copy all the text and use http://pastie.org to store them
[04:07] <Roasted> Diamondcite, I'm not sure I understand what you just said.
[04:07] <MichaelDeaton> sorry I just started using ubuntu about two days ago.
[04:07] <MichaelDeaton> still getting use to it.
[04:07] <MichaelDeaton> I like it a lot better than windows.
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: pastebin isnt ubuntu specific
[04:08] <Aikar> if SMART detects an hdd has a few bad sectors, it shouldnt ever try to write to them right? i just reinstalled my OS yesterday to fix my hard system freeze issue, now it just happened again :/ i noticed hdd i got ubuntu installed on has 17 bad sectors
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> Aikar: I'd get a new drive PDQ
[04:08] <Aikar> well i got other drives i can put ubuntu on, but yeah dont wanna lose data
[04:08] <ohsix> Aikar: if they aren't being reallocated then it's at the end of its useful life
[04:08] <adamruffolo> whitefire: you may need to change the permissions on the /debug/ folder
[04:08] <MichaelDeaton> http://pastie.org/1592199
[04:08] <MichaelDeaton> That?
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> Aikar: then you should have backups in place
[04:09] <Riobe> Does anyone here know how ubuntu compares to Fedora as far as being suited for programming? The community seems to be a hell of a lot more active judging by IRC channels, but I don't know about the distro.
[04:09] <Aikar> it says "reallocated sector count, value 17 sectors, threshold 36", smart is still listed as passed.
[04:09] <Nitrohax> aikar, you have open sata ports? install on the new drive and then place in the old drive with a sata and move files that way
[04:09] <ActionParsnip> Riobe: its fine, there is the build-essential which will install c and c++ compiling environments
[04:09] <maco> Riobe: if you're not doing ruby, i dont think it really matters.  the ruby community hates debs though
[04:09] <cfedde> Riobe: linux is pretty much linux.  the diffrences will mostly be minor.
[04:10] <Hellz_Bellz> i love ubuntu and i program in truby
[04:10] <Riobe> I see.
[04:10] <Aikar> i got enough room to get the files off really, but ANY bad sector = sign of disk failing?
[04:10] <scottnyc> how do i check the version of something in terminal again? verion --python right?
[04:10] <Hellz_Bellz> its a matter of "does it work with little fuss?"
[04:10] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: i think its the directory into which gems get installed that annoys other rubyists
[04:10] <Hellz_Bellz> of yes use it
[04:10] <Hellz_Bellz> if
[04:10] <ohsix> Aikar: ok if they are reallocated then it's fine
[04:10] <Riobe> I don't mind a bit of fuss as long as it's manageable.
[04:10] <Hellz_Bellz> :/ should it matter so long as its in the path?
[04:10] <Nitrohax> linux is linux, unix is linux with out the L and windows i sbs
[04:10] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: i went with just adding that directory to my path, and then everything was happy and i thought they were silly
[04:11] <ohsix> Aikar: if that 17 keeps growing while you use the disk part of it could be damaged,  it might stabilize though
[04:11] <MichaelDeaton> This? http://pastie.org/1592199
[04:11] <scottnyc> whats the terminal command for checking the verssion of something?
[04:11] <Hellz_Bellz> maco i didnt even need to add it to the path actually it just gives the error somehow
[04:12] <Hellz_Bellz> everything just works
[04:12] <Hellz_Bellz> lol
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: cool, gimme a sec
[04:12] <ohsix> scottnyc: apt-cache show, or apt-cache policy
[04:12] <MichaelDeaton> Alright.
[04:12] <Nitrohax> Aikar, spinrite will move them for you if it can
[04:12] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: ok then :)
[04:12] <Aikar> well im having a weird damn issue. flash kept hard freezing system where REISUB couldnt even reboot the system, soi thougt maybe its cause i moved hdd with ubuntu on it to a new system entirely, although it mostly worked fine i reinstalled, and flash no longer crashes, but i just got a random freeze out of nowhere no flash this time
[04:12] <Hellz_Bellz> is the source code in the ubuntu repos ubuntu specific or can i use the repos for a different source based distro?
[04:12] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: im not really a rubyist. i was installing diaspora on my server, which is not running the latest ubuntu
[04:12] <scottnyc> ohsix whats the one that looks like this version --python3
[04:12] <ohsix> Aikar: nvidia blob?
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: what is the output of:  lsb_release -d   please
[04:12] <Aikar> only real diff is that i uninstalled pulseaudio and rebooted then it happened
[04:13] <c1truz> assalamu'alaykum warahmatullahi wabrakatuh
[04:13] <Aikar> ohsix: blob? was nvidia drivers before, i havent installed nvidia now, running on default.
[04:13] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: you can run "dpkg -x foo.dsc" if you have a source package to break it back out into the tarballs it came from
[04:13] <scottnyc> assuming i was checking the version of python 3 ohsix
[04:13] <MichaelDeaton> Description:	Ubuntu 10.10

[04:14] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: do you have the universe repo enabled?
[04:14] <MichaelDeaton> Uhhh How do I know?
[04:14] <ActionParsnip> !info libalut0 maverick
[04:14] <Hellz_Bellz> maco im not on linux atm, does it download the dependencies too?
[04:14] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: no
[04:14] <Hellz_Bellz> hmmm
[04:14] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, not working STILL
[04:14] <Hellz_Bellz> not much use
[04:14] <maco> Hellz_Bellz: "apt-get source foo" just gets the foo source package
[04:14] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: use software centre, click edit ->software sources and tick the universe reo to enable it
[04:14] <Hellz_Bellz> i want something that will track dependencies for source code
[04:14] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, are you running 10.10?
[04:14] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: may just fix you up
[04:14] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, yes
[04:15] <Hellz_Bellz> i dont wanna have to go all over the internet to get my code
[04:16] <saty> hello all, i just installed moovida in maverick. the screen is kinda thinned in the middle doesnt occupy the whole screen...any ideas ?
[04:16] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: simgear2.0.0 is available on the playdeb repo
[04:16] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, are you using a laptop?
[04:16] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, yep
[04:16] <bc81> when i turn on these bluetooth headphones, the volume icon does not control the headphone volume until i go to sound preferences, and select the headphones in the output tab.  so how i can i force ubuntu to control the headphone volume as soon as it's detected?
[04:17] <ohsix> saty: try hitting alt enter
[04:17] <ActionParsnip> MichaelDeaton: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/getdeb_games?dist=maverick    shows how to add it
[04:17] <madmn> by default what port does ssh and ftp use in ubuntu
[04:17] <MichaelDeaton> trying that now
[04:17] <ohsix> madmn: the same ones used everywhere, 22 and 21
[04:17] <saty> ohsix: it goes full screen, however the gui is kinda slimmed in the middle
[04:18] <ohsix> saty: weird
[04:18] <madmn> okay i can't ftp into ubuntu using 21
[04:18] <Aikar> madmn: neither are installed by default, sudo apt-get install openssh-server, and dont use FTP, use SFTP
[04:18] <madmn> but i can using 22
[04:18] <ShapeShifter499> g_0_0, Acer Aspire 7540-1284, AMD Athlon II X2 M300 Processor, ATI Radeon HD 4200 Graphics Card, 320 gigs or storage, 3 gigs ram
[04:18] <ohsix> madmn: ports being blocked by your isp?
[04:18] <Aikar> SFTP uses SSH port, port 21 is "please hack me" standard FTP port
[04:18] <saty> ohsix: ya and the fonts are overlapping vertically
[04:18] <madmn> they could be
[04:19] <madmn> but i did forward like port 1234 to port 22
[04:19] <madmn> and tried it that way
[04:19] <g_0_0> ShapeShifter499, it may be an idea to search for you laptop model and this problem, it may be a bug
[04:20] <EnigmaticCoder> madmn: Did you give ssh the -p 1234 option?
[04:20] <madmn> how else can i do it if they are blocking the port
[04:20] <ActionParsnip> Aikar: you can change ports used easily
[04:20] <joobie> guys im trying to rebuild a RAID1+0 within a livecd and i get "ERROR: disk /dev/sda cannot be used to rebuilding"

[04:21] <esiri> hii, first need say to  accept my apologize for bad english, i used ubuntu 10.04, have shutdown issues , i did read some from topic about power off, i did add acpi=off in  /etc/default/grub  and that "noacpi nolapic acpi=off"  after i did update grub but dont be shut down never normalize, i can turn off with power off button , someone can help me about that. thanks.
[04:21] <michaelxq> how do i install a program from the terminal?
[04:21] <crlcan81> How do you figure out what repository is being used to download your updates and installs?
[04:21] <rww> michaelxq: sudo apt-get install packagenamehere
[04:21]  * Nitrohax has moved to floater kentucky
[04:21] <bastidraZor> crlcan81: apt-cache policy packagename
[04:22] <michaelxq> rww, thanks
[04:22] <thesheff17> crlcan81: /etc/apt/source.list shows the mirrors it will update against.
[04:22] <EnigmaticCoder> madmn: What is your Port set to in /etc/ssh/sshd_config?
[04:22] <madmn> i am using putty and it asks for the port i can ssh fine its ftp that is not working right
[04:22] <EnigmaticCoder> madmn: Are you using ftp or sftp?
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> madmn: you can connect to FTP servers using firefox etc
[04:23] <crlcan81> Any specific package, or does it matter?
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> madmn: you can use filezilla in windows to connect to SFTP
[04:23] <Aikar> madmn: ensure your using the SFTP function of your client and not FTP
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> madmn: if you have SFTP then you don't need FTP
[04:23] <madmn> port 22
[04:24] <bastidraZor> madmn: you can use winscp to transfer files via port 22
[04:24] <madmn> i have filezilla runnign
[04:26] <esiri> hii, first need say to  accept my apologize for bad english, i used ubuntu 10.04, have shutdown issues , i did read some from topic about power off, i did add acpi=off in  /etc/default/grub  and that "noacpi nolapic acpi=off"  after i did update grub but dont be shut down never normalize, i can turn off only with

[04:30] <jimlovell777> why is dvd burning so slow (1.1x)? We're talking 40 minutes. With this same drive and discs it's under 4 minutes. I would just use Windows for burning but it's since been demoted to a VM. What's the deal?
[04:30] <Nitrohax> jimlovell777, nice flight on apollo 13 but dvd drives are dual layer and more info
[04:31] <esiri> ruffdog i dont understand you ?? i sent my isuues msg again cause i get disconnected i tougth maybe your dont see my msg
[04:31] <dorin_> hey
[04:31] <ruffdog> esiri: you are having troubles shutting down?
[04:31] <Diamondcite> For those curious the solution to Roasted's problem where a Sandisk Sansa's music wasn't showing in Rhythmbox, the playlist.xml and rhythmdb.xml had to be removed from ~/.local/share/rhythmbox
[04:31] <rww> esiri: freenode has a message length limit. Yours ended with "i can turn off only with"
[04:32] <Riobe> esiri: The msg I saw you send stopped in the middle of a sentence.
[04:32] <esiri> ruffdog yes
[04:32] <dorin_> does anyone know anything about using "curl"?
[04:32] <esiri> rww understand
[04:32] <Roasted> And for those curious about my issue I didn't just remove the playlist and rhythmdb file but I just cut and pasted the entire folder on my desktop.  The same discs (literally - DVD+R 4.7GB) burn completely in 4 minutes when I used Windows7 on this computer but take 40+ under Ubuntu. Why?
[04:32] <dorin_> I'm trying to find out where curl downloads everything to.
[04:32] <dorin_> Any ideas?
[04:32] <rww> dorin_: the current directory
[04:33] <Nitrohax> maybe a driver issue or something?
[04:33] <ruffdog> esiri: did you try typing "shutdown"
[04:33] <dorin_> I've looked in there, and it hasn't put anything in there
[04:33] <esiri> ruffdog yes
[04:33] <strigoi66> dorin_: try opening console and typing (whereis curl) without braces
[04:33] <Nitrohax> jimlovell777, I'm thinking maybe a dirver issue. what are you using to burn?
[04:33] <esiri> ""shutdown"
[04:33] <dorin_> alright.
[04:34] <ruffdog> esiri: okay.  Is there a specific error message you get?  Or do you click "shutdown" and nothing happens?
[04:34] <dorin_> ah /usr/bin/curl
[04:34] <dorin_> Going to look in there.
[04:34] <jimlovell777> Nitrohax: Whatever comes with a plain Ubuntu 10.10 install. I put in a blank disc and drag a file over and click Burn
[04:34] <michaelxq> anyone knows LBRC program?
[04:34] <esiri> ruffdog please let me explain , u cant read my msg
[04:35] <dorin_> Nothing in there.
[04:35] <michaelxq> anyone knows LBRC program? LBRC = Linux Bluetooth Remote Control
[04:35] <ruffdog> michaelxq: not me.
[04:35] <Nitrohax> jimlovell777, I've had goo dluck with basero I think that's what you might be using. There are couple others that you can try too.
[04:36] <esiri> ruffdog i cant shut down my comp with shutdown botton , sudo halt or shutdown now command, said powerdown now but my fan working
[04:36] <dorin_> curl http://yeeeeee.com/imagebank/BlackBerry_Bold_9000_Wallpapers/BlackBerry%20Bold%209000%20Wallpaper%[201-400].jpg
[04:36] <dorin_> is that the right way of using curl?
[04:37] <dorin_> I'm trying to download all the pictures ranging from 201-400 with curl.
[04:37] <michaelxq> ruffdog, can you tell me the process to install a program .tar.gz
[04:38] <ruffdog> esiri: try "sudo shutdown -h now" without the ""
[04:38] <esiri> ruffdog i did change in /etc/default/grub with that  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="noacpi nolapic acpi=off" and acp=off same issues
