[13:11] <sharat87> hello, I am trying to combine two flv files.. but have been failing.. I tried a few options found through google, using ffmpeg, mencoder, pitivi etc., but I think the flv files are of different bitrate or something..
[13:11] <sharat87> how do i check it?
[13:12] <ortsvorsteher> yw
[13:12] <sharat87> or is there another preferred option on ubuntu to combine flvs?
[13:13] <brontosaurusrex> sharat87: how do you combine flvs when not on ubuntu?
[13:13] <sharat87> i never did...
[13:14] <sharat87> i have ubuntu at my disposal now so.. looking for ubuntu options :)
[13:14] <brontosaurusrex> sharat87: there is your answer, no freaking way
[13:15] <sharat87> so, what do u suggest? some software on windows or something?
[13:15] <verbatim> sharat87: i think mencoder will do it if you do something like "mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy file1 file2 file3 … -o final_movie.mpg"
[13:16] <sharat87> that's what i tried previously.. i came up with the same search result :)
[13:16] <sharat87> but i want an flv..
[13:16] <sharat87> is it a different command for flv
[13:17] <Someguy77> how can I check if my graphics driver is working properly?
[13:17] <billy2007> so just change the mpg to flv
[13:17] <brontosaurusrex> sharat87: it wont work
[13:17] <benni123> hi there, is there a way to use another ubuntu on a mounted disk as if it was booted normally to install updates?
[13:17] <billy2007> Someguy77, what are you on 9.10
[13:17] <Someguy77> yes karmic
[13:17] <brontosaurusrex> sharat87: at least i'am not aware of any tool on any os that would do that
[13:17] <sharat87> just changing the sctension did not work
[13:18] <sharat87> s/sctension/extension
[13:18] <sharat87> i get a corrupted video file
[13:18] <billy2007> Someguy77, go to system adminstration hardware drivers
[13:18] <fabio333> so?
[13:19] <billy2007> Someguy77, if your drivers are not on or not working it will tell you
[13:19] <Someguy77> billy2007: hardware drivers won't start
[13:20] <billy2007> Someguy77, hmmmm
[13:20] <Someguy77> billy2007: it says searching for avaliable drivers forever
[13:20] <billy2007> Someguy77, im not sure on that m8 sorry :(
[13:20] <billy2007> ah thats what should happen
[13:20] <costre> Someguy77, forever? Do you interrupt the process?
[13:20] <Someguy77> no
[13:21] <Someguy77> I've been waiting for several minutes
[13:21] <costre> ok. Most issues are due to impatience :)
[13:22] <benni123> Is it possible to login to a mounted ubuntu drive, something like ssh style?
[13:22] <Someguy77> its still going!!
[13:22] <Someguy77> I think its been searching for over 10 minutes
[13:22] <Someguy77> should I try reinstalling the drivers?
[13:23] <ubutom3> hhm, would the netbook remix be better for my kinda old laptop with celeron@1Ghz and 512MB RAM? Normal ubuntu is very slow on it...
[13:23] <StevenR> hi. When I adjust the volume, a grey rectangle appears near top right showing the volume adjust... but when I alter my laptop's panel brightness, it doesn't do that. How do I get this back?
[13:24] <Someguy77> isn't the new name for the netbook remix actually Ubuntu netbook edition?
 a clean ubuntu is fast enough there
[13:24] <thechef> benni123, you mean you have another ubuntu-installation mounted to /mnt/other-ubuntu-root for example? In that case use: sudo chroot /mnt/other-ubuntu-root
[13:24] <ubutom3> fabio333, idk, my machine is really very slow ;)
[13:24] <benni123> thechef, exactly
[13:25] <ubutom3> especially with firefox
[13:25] <fabio333> ubutom3>: i got an old laptop with 512 mb rab ....
[13:25] <ubutom3> fabio333, and what processor?
[13:25] <digimOnk_> ubutom3, have you tried xubuntu
[13:25] <benni123> thechef, I get chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Exec format error
[13:26] <fabio333> ubottu, a littler better than yours
[13:26] <ubutom3> digimOnk_, no, but i tried using fluxbox as desktop manager
[13:27] <ubutom3> fabio333, a celeron at 1ghz is like a pentium III with 700mhz
[13:27] <billy2007> ive ben looking at jolicloud that looks pretty good
[13:27] <StopSign> anyone know a good music app for cleaning up dirs
[13:27] <digimOnk_> ubutom3, using xubuntu  on an eeePC which is a celeron wth 512 MB .. its fine
[13:27] <fabio333> ubuntulog,  how much it's worth you can get a decent pc with few dollars or euros...
[13:28] <ubutom3> digimOnk_, k, will try that if it doesnt improve after the upgrade :)
[13:28] <fabio333> ubuntulog,  anyway lucid is faster than karmic
[13:28] <ubutom3> fabio333, thats retarded, why should i buy new hardware if there is software that runs better on it?
[13:28] <tachiro1> clarify
[13:28] <billy2007> !lucid fabio333
[13:29] <jck> notify-send does not right.. where do i file a bug report, libnotify or notification-daemon?
[13:29] <fabio333> ubuntu, ???
[13:29] <billy2007> !lucid | fabio333
[13:29] <StopSign> bigger faster stronger ubutom3
[13:30] <tachiro1> that was extremely informative ubotto
[13:30] <tachiro1> ubottu*
[13:30] <fabio333> lucid is more stable than karmic now
[13:30] <billy2007> !lucid | fabio333
[13:30] <ubutom3> StopSign, the point is, I wanted to know if the netbook remix runs better on my laptop, I dod not want to have advice like buy yourself a new laptop
[13:31] <Idlehead> fabio333, i beg to differ. but lucid has more flaws than my karmik installation right now.
[13:31] <fabio333> ubutom3,  that's not what i meant
[13:31] <tachiro1> yo can't someone make ubottu censor profanity here?
[13:31] <StopSign> ubutom3, i know i was just having a little fun :p
[13:31] <ubutom3> :)
[13:31] <billy2007> tachiro1, init we could swear then
[13:31] <fabio333> celeron 1ghz is crap, whatever you run on it .... buy on old decent pc
[13:31] <Slart> tachiro1: it's just a bot.. it can't censor stuff
[13:31] <tachiro1> hmm,
[13:31] <tachiro1> ahhh ok
[13:32] <fabio333> i'm not  talking about core i7
[13:32] <ubutom3> fabio333, please shut up if youre not helping
[13:32] <Slart> !language
[13:32] <Idlehead> ubutom3, have you been using the netbook remix?
[13:32] <ubutom3> Idlehead, no, I asked if it would be better for my laptop
[13:33] <Idlehead> ubutom3, don't even think about using it. the interface lags as hell and does not run well under 1,3 ghz. don't know why though.
[13:33] <askhl> tachiro1, you may be able to have your local IRC client censor rude words though
[13:33] <tachiro1> ohhhh
[13:34] <ubutom3> Idlehead, hm, tahts odd, thought it was altered to fit netbooks, Atom-CPUs aren't very fast in general :)
[13:34] <tachiro1> we might not be thinking of the same thing.. but i know pidgin (using) has option
[13:34] <tachiro1> there's a paintball chat that i go to that has this hilarious solution to that
[13:34] <Idlehead> ubutom3, it is supposed to run well, but i tried it on my new eee and well, it lost against moblin
[13:35] <ubutom3> hmkay, thanks
[13:35] <digimOnk_> ubutom3 , the NBR was a little slow on my eee
[13:36] <Idlehead> digimOnk_, i noticed the slowness as well and marked it as not usable for me. moblin is way better for eee :)
[13:36] <StopSign> so lets say i buy a netbook for my girl, u think it wont be worth a dam comp to winblows
[13:36] <ubutom3> yeah, maybe i should do a fresh install with 9.10, upgraded this box from idk what version to 8.04 and now to 10.4 to test :)
[13:36] <digimOnk_> Idlehead, yeah  wanna give moblin a try
[13:36] <tachiro1> btw is there a distro that's build specifically for laptops?
[13:37] <tachiro1> built*
[13:37] <tachiro1> well to run most efficiently
[13:37] <tachiro1> or more*
[13:37] <Idlehead> digimOnk_, the only flaw i could not get rid of: moblin does not recognize my wifi hardware inside the eee :/
[13:37] <digimOnk_> Idlehead, ouch .. really
[13:37] <billy2007> tachiro1, check out jolicloud
[13:37] <Slart> tachiro1: there are some "lighter" distros.. and distros you can customize yourself.. archlinux is customizable.. dsl is small and light.. puppylinux is also said to be lean
[13:38] <Idlehead> digimOnk_, yeah. it sucks to need a cable connection everytime i wanna use it while eating breakfast. but i think i can get it working
[13:38] <Slart> tachiro1: there are so many distros.. why not have a look at distrowatch, see if they have some kind of recommendation
[13:38] <billy2007> Slart, jolicloud is made specifically for netboks
[13:38] <Idlehead> billy2007, jolicloud is actually the same as the ubuntu netbook remix: slow and laggy
[13:39] <tachiro1> well i got a few guidelineswhich one won't put me at a complete stand still until i master terminal
[13:39] <tachiro1> guidelines. *
[13:39] <guest6980> hi i just installed ubuntu 10.04 and all my window action b uttons like minimisze and close are on the left side of my window, how can i put them on the right?
[13:39] <digimOnk_> Idlehead, good to know everythin else works .. i shud give moblin a spin
[13:39] <Slart> !lucid | guest6980
[13:39] <Idlehead> guest6980, open the gconf-editor
[13:39] <billy2007> Idlehead, i never knew that thanks 4 the info :)
[13:39] <Slart> billy2007: I'm reading about it now.. never seen it before.. thanks
[13:40] <tachiro1> i'm using karmic btw .. and i'm just wondering where this stand on a scale of 1-10 as far as lean'ness
[13:40] <guest6980> Idlehead, yesm and then?
[13:40] <Idlehead> guest6980, then navigate to apps > metacity > general
[13:40] <tachiro1> distrowatch <googling>
[13:40] <Idlehead> guest6980, look for the entry "button_layout"
[13:40] <billy2007> Slart i just came across it one night and liked the layout and look of it
[13:40] <ubutom3> I think i'll give moblin a try :)
[13:40] <guest6980> Idlehead, ok, im there
[13:40] <Basttrax> Hey all
[13:41] <Idlehead> guest6980, if you want the oldschool button layout use ":minimize,maximize,close"
[13:41] <guest6980> ok
[13:42] <guest6980> Idlehead, thank you very much
[13:42] <Idlehead> guest6980,  you can also use this little python script to switch the buttons: http://pastebin.com/HmiDQeHy
[13:42] <tachiro1> oh gawd, i just clicked the drop down menu at that site, ("select distribution")
[13:42] <Slart> Idlehead,guest6980: #ubuntu+1 for lucid discussion and support, please
[13:42] <Idlehead> it allows for customisation as well
[13:42] <tachiro1> what in the F
[13:42] <Idlehead> Slart, if he's here and asks and i'm here and i can help, why should we switch channels
[13:43] <Slart> Idlehead: because someone decided that this channel is for released versions and ubuntu+1 for upcoming..
[13:43] <Slart> Idlehead: just channel policy
[13:43] <adalal> hey, i can't seem to connect to my to a openvpn server from my machine
[13:43] <Idlehead> Slart, bureaucracy...
[13:44] <Idlehead> ;)
[13:44] <nowy09> hi all
[13:45] <adalal> anyone here familiar with openvpn?
[13:46] <tobi_> I've had a complete system freeze yesterday, prolly x fault, how do I investigate the problem?
[13:46] <Idlehead> tobi_, does it work now?
[13:46] <tobi_> yes
[13:46] <Idlehead> tobi_, then never mind :P
[13:46] <tobi_> no I don't want it in future
[13:47] <Slart> tobi_: you can check the logs.. /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log might be a good start
[13:47] <Idlehead> tobi_, I don't know much about X, but doesn't it generate some logs?
[13:47] <Idlehead> oh, slart was faster
[13:48] <moetunes> or dmesg
[13:48] <tobi_> ye, thx
[13:48] <tobi_> gonna take a look
[13:48] <bcj> Are there still plans to replace Firefox with Epiphany in Ubuntu (at some point)?
[13:48] <tobi_> bcj epiphany is a joke lol
[13:48] <tobi_> even ie is better
[13:48] <bcj> tobi_: WebKit fans would say Gecko is a joke
[13:48] <Guest1> hi
[13:48] <mamous> hello all
[13:49] <mamous> I have problem with terminal
[13:49] <Basttrax> Just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my Dell XPS M1330. Everything works great except the keyboard layout is a bit messed up. Anyone have any experience with thisÉ
[13:49] <snow_> ?
[13:49] <bcj> tobi_: I know developers who have handled the code for each and WebKit is far better (by their testimony).
[13:49] <Guest1> i am Grzegorz
[13:49] <theadmin> Basttrax: Try going to System - Preferences - Keyboard - Layouts and finding one which fits you
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> hi all
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> one of my question is
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> whether , C++ code could be found in kernel.
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> i am curios about that .
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> whether c++ code could be found in kernel
[13:49] <FloodBot2> Devil_Wang: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:49] <Devil_Wang> anyone could tell me?
[13:50] <Commander_Keen> how do i remove DRM protection on vmw files?
[13:50] <bcj> tobi_: ...and, no, iE is the cause for most of the badly coded pages on the web.
[13:50] <theadmin> Devil_Wang: Kernel, as far as I'm aware, is mostly written in C
[13:50] <bcj> tobi_: There's no way you can say that's a good thng.
[13:50] <tobi_> bcj wan't all that serious :)
[13:50] <Slart> Devil_Wang: I think it's mainly in C.. but I doubt it's *only* C
[13:51] <bcj> tobi_: ?
[13:51] <bcj> tobi_: You're not making sense.
[13:51] <tobi_> bcj I dispise the simplicity of epiphany, because it lacks common features
[13:51] <Idlehead> bcj, the engine itself is not that bad, but epiphany is like firefox 0.5 imho
[13:51] <Slart> Devil_Wang: there might be better channels to ask this.. isn't there a ubuntu-kernel channel?
[13:51] <xerox1> hi, i am looking for an application to use "remember the milk"; i don't like to use tasque; any alternatives?
[13:51] <purplebluesilver> Could this linux command stand for something? linux show hardware wisely? lshw
[13:51] <bcj> tobi_: Which features do you miss the most?
[13:51] <theadmin> xerox1: Sorry, what? Could you rephrase that?
[13:52] <theadmin> purplebluesilver: LiSt HardWare
[13:52] <tobi_> bcj just use Opera for a while, and you're gonna see what I mean
[13:52] <Commander_Keen> any1 who knows how to remove DRM encryption?
[13:52] <sixtila> what is the shortcut to switch between tabs in a terminal?
[13:52] <Basttrax> theadmin, Maybe its something to do with me being in Canada
[13:52] <bcj> tobi_: Which features?
[13:52] <Slart> Commander_Keen: wrong channel for that..
[13:52] <Idlehead> Commander_Keen, removing DRM is a violation of law :/
[13:52] <vivid> Commander_Keen, yea lets not be pirates
[13:52] <tobi_> ad blocking is not there in standard
[13:52] <xerox1> theadmin, i am looking for an app to use the service "remember the milk"; the only one i found was "tasque", but it seems to have bugs;
[13:52] <Commander_Keen> heheh
[13:52] <bcj> tobi_: Maybe there's a case to make to the Epiphany guys?
[13:53] <tobi_> bcj a lot of small things I do not remember atm
[13:53] <theadmin> xerox1: No idea what milk are you talking about :/ Doubt I can help
[13:53] <bcj> tobi_: Not important enough to remember, hmm.
[13:53] <Slart> xerox1: you might want to look into firefox addons as well.. I think there is one or two in there
[13:53] <bcj> 8-)
[13:53] <adalal> anyone here familiar with openvpn?
[13:53] <Slart> !anyone | adalal
[13:53] <theadmin> Slart: One or two? There are tons of FF addons
[13:53] <Commander_Keen> is there such a channel where one could speak of theoretical sugestions?
[13:53] <xerox1> Slart, i have looked for it, but couldn't find one
[13:53] <adalal> Slart: i tried asking the question about 10 minutes ago, with no reply...
[13:53] <Idlehead> theadmin, he meant addons for "remember the milk"
[13:54] <Slart> Commander_Keen: ask in #freenode
[13:54] <purplebluesilver> theadmin, That's good, I also like linux show hard ware  -- I am making a list of useful to me commands. But the last one got trashed when this box froze. So someone gave me another computer. I need to see how good it is. INside. OUTside it's a styley gamer mode.
[13:54] <purplebluesilver> TY
[13:54] <Commander_Keen> Slart: thx alot
[13:54] <theadmin> Idlehead: Oh.
[13:54] <asad2005> nvidia driver 185 suddenly crashing is there a known bug ? How do i troubleshoot and where is the log
[13:55] <Basttrax> theadmin, Thanks. It was set to "Canada English" but it still wasn't happy. When I switched it over to USA it worked like a charm
[13:55] <theadmin> Basttrax: Heh. Good that you fixed it
[13:55] <theadmin> ubottu: yay | Basttrax
[13:56] <Basttrax> I probably could have figured it out, but you guys on here are always so helpful :)
[13:57] <Basttrax> Is there a way to turn off people entering and leaving in X-Chat?
[13:57] <rsista> Wireless question in 10.04 : The WPA password is not being saved.  I had to enter it everytime I login to the desktop.
[13:58] <Slart> Basttrax: depends on which xchat you're using.. but try right clicking the channel name.. there might be a setting there
[13:58] <ubutom3> yeah, right click ont he channel ta and select show /hide enter leave messages
[13:58] <ubutom3> channel tab
[13:58] <comfy> hi, everyone. I reinstalled firefox and restarted the system, but when I tried to start firefox, a window pops up and says "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
[13:58] <Basttrax> ubutom3, Woohoo!
[13:58] <comfy> I tried to start it from terminal and the message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
[13:59] <ubutom3> Basttrax, searched for that a while some time ago :)
[13:59] <Slart> comfy: try running this in a terminal "pkill -9 firefox"
[13:59] <Slart> comfy: then try again
[13:59] <Idlehead> comfy or just "killall firefox"
[13:59] <comfy> thanks slart and idle head, i'll try that
[13:59] <mamous> hello all
[13:59] <Idlehead> hello mamous
[14:00] <mamous> I have a problem in my transmission bittorent clint
[14:00] <mamous> is here any one can help me please
[14:00] <Idlehead> the first time i helped people on this channel i realised how much of a geek i've become
[14:00] <theadmin> mamous: What is the problem?
[14:00] <sixtila> i have compiz running, can i still have a shortcut to switch tabs in a terminal
[14:00] <brontosaurusrex> !ask | mamous
[14:01] <comfy> I tried "killall firefox" it says "firefox: no process found"
[14:01] <mamous> I open a port in my Router oky.. when it make it in the settings it said it is closed
[14:01] <comfy> and I tried pkill-9 firefox, and nothing
[14:01] <Slart> sixtila: you can set a compiz shortcut to change desktops.. see !ccsm
[14:01] <Idlehead> sixtila, doesn't shift+ctrl+pgup/down work?
[14:01] <mamous> but when I check the proxy settings it is open
[14:01] <mamous> how come
[14:01] <mamous> ?
[14:01] <bcj> comfy: That means Firefox isn't running :)
[14:01] <mamous> what to do
[14:01] <FloodBot2> mamous: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:01] <comfy> but when I start firefox, it says "GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times"
[14:01] <purplebluesilver> comfy I forgot how but what you need to to find the process number. Soemtimes you have to do that.
[14:01] <theadmin> mamous: Maybe it is closed for this specific application?
[14:01] <sixtila> idlehead it doesnt
[14:01] <comfy> hmm..., so reinstall?
[14:01] <theadmin> comfy: It's normal, same here
[14:02] <mamous> no man it is not closed I open it in my router
[14:02] <purplebluesilver> comfy list processes
[14:02] <purplebluesilver> comfy it left something behind
[14:02] <mamous> but it is open when I check the proxy setting in the transmission settings
[14:02] <comfy> how can I list process?
[14:02] <mamous> like the port is closed when the proxy settings is unchecked
[14:02] <theadmin> comfy: Install htop for something like Windows taskmanager by the way
[14:02] <Slart> comfy: ps aux    in a terminal.. or use the system monitor
[14:03] <mamous> and it is open wen the proxy settings in the transmission is checked
[14:03] <Idlehead> sixtila, what happens if you press the shortcut?
[14:03] <Idlehead> sixtila, does anything else happen?
[14:03] <mamous> what to do ?
[14:03] <spice> ciao
[14:03] <comfy> i listed the process in my terminal, but it's really long
[14:03] <rsista> Wireless question in 10.04 : The WPA password is not being saved.  I had to enter it everytime I login to the desktop.How to save Wireless password so as to not enter it everytime I reboot the computer in Ubuntu 10.04?  Anyone?
[14:04] <sixtila> idlehead it ctrl+shft+pgup takes me up, in the same terminal
[14:04] <theadmin> comfy: you can do "ps aux | less" for it to become scrollable
[14:04] <purplebluesilver> comfy I googled it and got this -- The ps command displays all of the existing processes. This command is also directly linked to issues with stopped processes (also known as "stopped jobs").
[14:04] <purplebluesilver> Occasionally, you may see the message There are Stopped Jobs.
[14:04] <purplebluesilver> If you log off the system without properly stopping your jobs, some jobs/processes may remain in memory tying up the system and drawing unnecessary processing bandwidth.
[14:04] <purplebluesilver> Type ps and hit enter. This will list all of your current processes running, or stopped.
[14:04] <FloodBot2> purplebluesilver: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:04] <purplebluesilver> sorry dude bot
[14:05]  * purplebluesilver just discovered I gan google commands. FTW and good night again
[14:06] <comfy> Hmm... not quite sure what I'm looking for in the listed process, but nothing seems to contain "firefox"
[14:06] <Idlehead> sixtila, does Alt+1, 2, 3, 4
[14:06] <Idlehead> sixtila, does Alt+1, 2, 3, 4 work?
[14:06] <sixtila> idlehead wow that does
[14:06] <sixtila> thanks man
[14:06] <Idlehead> sixtila, you're welcome
[14:07] <sixtila> i m playing with some C++ so need to switch tabs a lot
[14:07] <comfy> Hmm... I think I'll have to reinstall again
[14:07] <comfy> Thanks everyone
[14:08] <ubutom3> comfy, try ps aux | grep firefox
[14:08] <Basttrax> comfy, why are you re-installing firefox to begin with?
[14:08] <homovitruvius> anything for helping me sorting and organizing a big bunch of pdf, video lectures, e-books? Thx.
[14:08] <Idlehead> Basttrax, because reinstalling solves everything...under windows that is ;)
[14:08] <Basttrax> lol
[14:09] <ubutom3> reboot and reinstall *g*
[14:09] <Idlehead> and reinstall your distro while you're at it ;)
[14:09] <comfy> restored my bookmarks, but then bookmark-organizing library is empty, even though the drop down menu shows bookmarks
[14:10] <comfy> so I tried to delete ******.defaults files in firefox profile folder
[14:10] <comfy> the folder is something like ~/.mozilla/firefox (found info online)
[14:10] <Idlehead> comfy, i ran into this problem on my girlfriends computer (windows) but i forgot how i solved it. all i know i was getting very angry at firefox...
[14:10] <ubutom3> xxxx.default is your profile
[14:11] <Idlehead> damn...i'm hungry... gotta grab something. idle now
[14:11] <comfy> yeah, it was suggested on some pages that several bookmark issues are related to the profile
[14:11] <comfy> so I tried to delete that
[14:11]  * Idlehead goes into the wilderness to hunt down sliced bread
[14:11] <Basttrax> Ah
[14:12] <Basttrax> Yeah things get a bit mess in Firefox when working with profiles :(
[14:12] <comfy> then for some reason, i thought it would be good to complete remove and reinstall firefox at that point :(
[14:12] <Basttrax> Are you doing it through the Ubuntu Software Manager? Or from the site?
[14:12] <ubutom3> removing firefox wont remove your profile
[14:12] <Vigo> comfy: Did you backup any data or anything or do you ever?
[14:13] <comfy> ubutom3: yeah, that i figured out from trial and error :P
[14:13] <comfy> hmm I only backup bookmarks with Xmarks
[14:13] <ubutom3> comfy, yeah, the profile resides in .mozilla/firefox or so
[14:13] <Basttrax> comfy, Ubuntu is a pretty quick install. Maybe start from scratch?...
[14:14] <dorkface> Hi all.  Does anyone have any recommended documentation on how to prepare an ubuntu system to switch from a nvidia card to an ati/amd card?
[14:14] <comfy> yikes @@~
[14:14] <comfy> I might consider giving up on firefox for good, and finally try chrome. This is actually the second time
[14:14] <ubutom3> comfy, I copied my firefox profile from windows to linux and the other way around, I just put it in the profile folder and changed the file profile.ini or whats it called
[14:15] <comfy> that it's happenedn, I don't remember what I did last time though
[14:15] <Vigo> dorkface: Purge and configure or backup critical data and install fresh, I guess.
[14:15] <Basttrax> comfy, You'll come back from Chrome. Everyone always does :)
[14:15] <ubutom3> comfy, sometimes the problems start with wrong permissions on the profile
[14:16] <ubutom3> at least it was like that in my case when i copied the profile from windows :)
[14:16] <comfy> Basttrax: :D
[14:16] <Basttrax> dorkface, Yeah. Backup everything, switch cards and restart. If you can install the drivers afterbootup with new card thats great. If not, reinstall Ubuntu
[14:16] <brontosaurusrex> comfy: chromium
[14:16] <Vigo> I kinda like Chrome, is zippy , sorta.
[14:16] <dorkface> Basttrax: Sheesh, that's kinda brutal :/
[14:16] <synapse> Any reason why my microphone sound never works?  I've tried reading most of the forums, etc.. all other sound works fine from the motherboard
[14:17] <dorkface> heh
[14:17] <comfy> Hmm... ok, I'll try what I can and if all fails, I'll probably try to reinstall ubuntu :(:( Though, it's seems kind of drastic to reinstall ubuntu because of glitch in firefox
[14:17] <brontosaurusrex> comfy: chromium + dolce gabbana skin are unbeatable ;)
[14:17] <Basttrax> dorkface, lol yeah. There's not much you can do. Honestly though I think you'll be alright after re-install. I think the bootup will detect the new card.
[14:17] <comfy> I fell like I should break something else first :(
[14:17] <ubutom3> dorkface, had no problem with switching gfx-card in the past, be sure to uninstall nvidia driver if installed manually
[14:18] <Vigo> dorkface: That is safest way I know of and less hassles from a goofy system setup.
[14:18] <comfy> brontosaurusrex: no time better to try chromium than when ff is broken :)
[14:18] <Basttrax> comfy, aww. Google "How to completely uninstall firefox from ubuntu" if thats the case
[14:18] <Basttrax> comfy, but a reinstall might be faster in the long run
[14:18] <comfy> Basttrax: thanks :)
[14:19] <ubutom3> dorkface, in general ubuntu starts on pretty much everything, switched here from an old intel to an amd with totally different mainboard, etc :) gfx card doesnt have to be a problem imo
[14:19] <purplebluesilver> I want to mount the floppy drive. what must I install to do this?
[14:19] <Idlehead> purplebluesilver, what is a floppy drive? (just kidding)
[14:20] <Vigo> !mount | purplebluesilver
[14:20] <Vigo> wait
[14:20] <ubutom3> purplebluesilver, insert a disk and right click on floppy in nautilis and select mount?
[14:20] <synapse> wtf
[14:20] <comfy> Thanks everyone, I was a little afraid to post my questions, but you're all very friendly and helpful :)
[14:20] <synapse> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[14:20] <Basttrax> comfy, The ubuntu crowd is usually a good one ;)
[14:21] <comfy> :)
[14:21] <Basttrax> comfy, I wish we had a better answer for you though
[14:21] <purplebluesilver> when I do that it tell me mount special device /dev/sdc does not exist
[14:21] <synapse> synapse@darkside:~$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
[14:21] <synapse> Codec: VIA ID 441
[14:21] <synapse> Is VIA a sound card manufacturer?
[14:21] <ubutom3> purplebluesilver, there is a floppy int he drive?
[14:21] <Basttrax> synapse, They are. CPU's too.
[14:21] <comfy> That was plenty helpful, really, it's more frustrating googling for the answer
[14:21] <purplebluesilver> I put one in but it might not be formatted ubutom3
[14:22] <Slart> synapse: I'm not sure they make sound cards.. but they make all kinds of chips that handles sound
[14:22] <Basttrax> synapse, onboard stuff mostly
[14:22] <synapse> so Im reading this howto to apparently work around a bug tha ubuntu has
[14:22] <comfy> Ok, I'm back to trying and fix firefox. bye everyone~
[14:22] <DDAZZA> bye
[14:22] <synapse> options snd-hda-intel model=MODEL
[14:22] <Vigo> comfy: I would rather see questions asked than none.
[14:22] <purplebluesilver> I think I will just ask a neighbor with a windows machine. I want to install a program on it.
[14:22] <synapse> do I do model=VIA ?
[14:22] <billy2007> hey guys i know i should be on ubuntu+1 but there useless im on mobile broadband and going to upgrade to 10.04 will it download then install or do it all at once because i dont want to disonnect from inet half way through
[14:23] <synapse> something like this in options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N model=VIA alsa-base.conf?
[14:23] <ubutom3> purplebluesilver, ok, i just inserted a floppy in my laptop :) now i can mount it under places
[14:23] <Basttrax> Installed it while the computer was running...?
[14:23] <Vigo> billy2007: Yes, try #ubuntu+1 and or look at Launchpad.
[14:24] <bazhang> billy2007, lucid in #ubuntu+1 not here
[14:24] <DDAZZA> Will this system be compatible with Ubuntu (http://www.cclonline.com/system-info.asp?product_id=34698)
[14:24] <purplebluesilver> ubutom3, yes, but mine doesnt show. Does that mean it is unformatted. Oh wait I'll try another disk.
[14:24] <billy2007> bazhang, there useless dont even attepmt to answer questions
[14:24] <bazhang> billy2007, still the proper channel, be patient
[14:24] <ubutom3> hhm, idk purplebluesilver don't really use floppies that much nowadays, but the one i have is formatted
[14:24] <aar> Hi, I've got a file full of lines in this format: " foo X random garble Y bar". Is it possible to tell sed to delete from X to Y (with the random garble in between) in all lines and keep the rest?
[14:25] <DexterLB> lol. And someone said canonical/ubuntu site devs never joked... http://uppix.net/7/8/3/04aea8f81eb5b1e1e3e3f20b408cb.png
[14:25] <bazhang> DexterLB, dont paste that here
[14:26] <Vigo> billy2007: Here is the Launchpad info>https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid
[14:26] <DexterLB> ok...
[14:26] <stronze> okay here is the issue. i installed 9.10 and we haft to use a USB wireless booster to reach our wireless.now we try to connect his computer to the wireless network BUT it cant connect.it tries then gives up and we cant figure out why it does this.tried WICD but it cant find the network at all even if we are 5 feet from transmitter. there is no wire internet here.
[14:26] <synapse> What the hell do I use for Codec: VIA ID 441 as the model?  its not listed in alsa
[14:26] <synapse> its an asus motherboard
[14:27] <synapse> sabertooth 55i
[14:27] <Basttrax> stronze, Are you sure it's compatible with Ubuntu?
[14:27] <stronze> everything runs fine except it jsut wont connect
[14:27] <Basttrax> Wireless usb sometimes gets a bit pissy with linux
[14:27] <Basttrax> Can you try any other networks?
[14:27] <purplebluesilver> ubutom3, I tried 2 others that should contain data. same story.  All I want to do is get a report on this failed windows installation with "Belarc Advisor" and get the OEM number for it. I'll leave it for another day. Another computer. Thanks for trying
[14:28] <Basttrax> stronze, The first thing to do is figure out if it's just that network it cant connect with, or all of them.
[14:28] <stronze> basttrax - it only detects the one network.his built in wireless isnt that strong compaired to mine.i detect several
[14:28] <Basttrax> stronze, hmm
[14:28] <Vigo> That is a hrmmm
[14:28] <britany_okla> using ubuntu but i am having connection issues on other servers with konversation
[14:29] <Basttrax> stronze, Whats the model number of the wireless booster?
[14:29] <purplebluesilver> synapse there is a program that allows you to use a windows driver for a wireless thingy
[14:29] <klej> a
[14:29] <synapse> what?  this is an onboard soundcard problem
[14:30] <stronze> basttrax - g sky link gs-27usb
[14:30] <stronze> basttrax - i didnt even think to see if booster is the issue
[14:31] <theadmin> ubottu: who | synapse
[14:31] <Basttrax> yeah that would be my first guess
[14:31] <maquetero-ppc> irssi Rules!!!!
[14:31] <Vigo> g sky?
[14:31] <maquetero-ppc> :)
[14:31] <cap> moin
[14:31] <ubutom3> best bet is to always ask google if they work with linux before buying any peripherals. Got tired of having issues because of win only hardware.
[14:32] <britany_okla> using ubuntu but i am having connection issues on other servers with konversation
[14:32] <stronze> basttrax - i had him take his laptop to the transmitter and see fi it will connect
[14:32] <Traveler0> how can i put ubuntu on usb if i dont have ubuntu :/
[14:33] <cap> #ubuntu-de
[14:33] <bazhang> Traveler0, unetbootin
[14:33] <bazhang> Traveler0, what OS
[14:33] <Traveler0> thanks bazhang that was the program i was using
[14:34] <cap> wie komme ich in ubuntu-de?
[14:34] <aar> Hi, I've got a file full of lines in this format: " foo X [random garble] Y bar". Is it possible to tell sed to delete the string from X to Y (with the random garble inbetween) for all lines whilst keeping the rest of teh content?
[14:34] <maquetero-ppc> german??
[14:34] <bazhang> cap, /join #ubuntu-de
[14:34] <Traveler0> bazhang i can but any usx based os?
[14:34] <cap> danke
[14:34] <theadmin> cap: Bitte, machen sie "/join #ubuntu-de"
[14:34] <bazhang> Traveler0, windows? another version of linux? which OS
[14:34] <Slart> aar: sure.. something like    sed 's/X.*Y/XY/'    should work
[14:35] <maquetero-ppc> C'mon man I'm trying to learn a little english!! :) je
[14:35] <Traveler0> bazhang its for kubuntu but i want to try mac os x too :)
[14:35] <Basttrax> stronze, Just googled the booster and linux. didn't see any issues, or much of anything on it really
[14:35] <The_Explorer> IS there a GUI that let me manage startup options easier? Like, i would rather boot to bash than have X start auto.
[14:35] <stronze> basttrax - is there a way i can download the latest updates for him and usb it to him?
[14:35] <aar> Slart, thanks I'll try that
[14:35] <bazhang> Traveler0, only apple for that, not supported here nor on freenode; you can use unetbootin to get ubuntu from windows if you wish though unetbootin.sourceforge.net
[14:36] <stronze> basttrax - odd, its working now
[14:36] <maquetero-ppc> Traveler0: I have Os x leopard in my macbook I prefer Gnu/linux
[14:36] <Basttrax> stronze, Yay!
[14:36] <theadmin> The_Explorer: No. If you want to boot into a console, do "sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.DISABLED"
[14:37] <Traveler0> maquetero-ppc on ppc??? non there isnt flash! you cant watch flash on ppc with flash 9 but i stil :)
[14:37] <stronze> basttrax - lol, all that googling and it fixes itself.i think it was making fun of me
[14:37] <theadmin> There is a "gdm" file in /etc/init.d though, unsure whether this will work because of that one.
[14:37] <The_Explorer> theadmin: So, if i do that, I boot to bash and i can /startx to get into X
[14:37] <Basttrax> stronze, Gotta love computers
[14:38] <theadmin> The_Explorer: Yes.
[14:38] <The_Explorer> theadmin: Thankyou
[14:38] <britany_okla> is there an irc support channel
[14:38] <stronze> basttrax - LOL.thanks for the effort tho
[14:38] <Freeaqingme> what's the scheduled release date for 10.04?
[14:38] <maquetero-ppc> Traveler0: Both
[14:38] <theadmin> Freeaqingme: 29th April 2010
[14:38] <Freeaqingme> kk, tnx
[14:39] <britany_okla> Is there an IRC support channel for Konversation
[14:39] <maquetero-ppc> Traveler0: this one is running ubuntu
[14:39] <theadmin> britany_okla: the closest place to ask stuff about kde apps would be #kde
[14:40] <britany_okla> Thank you
[14:42] <Basttrax> stronze, No problem! hehe
[14:42] <britany_okla> theadmin great channel not one comment so far lol
[14:43] <theadmin> britany_okla: XD Well, everyone is away or dead i guess
[14:43] <britany_okla> I am thinking dead lol
[14:43] <Basttrax> That damn IRC plague is going around ...
[14:43] <phaedra> britany_okla, you could try #kunbuntu also
[14:43] <adalal> anyone aware of any transaction gateway software?
[14:44] <theadmin> britany_okla: #kubuntu , not #kunbuntu, phaedra
[14:44] <britany_okla> How about this IRC 17F msg me and I will do pic with phone
[14:44] <phaedra> ah... typo's... :(
[14:44] <britany_okla> ok maybe kidding about pic
[14:44] <bazhang> britany_okla, thats not appropriate please dont
[14:44] <britany_okla> I was teasing
[14:45] <theadmin> bazhang: No rules about private messaging methinks
[14:45] <britany_okla> sorry
[14:45] <theadmin> britany_okla: Also, post your question on ubuntuforums.org
[14:45] <napoleao> hello
[14:46] <napoleao> is there a way to remove the name of the monitor in the top corner when using dual monitors»
[14:46] <napoleao> ?
[14:46] <napoleao> my displays, "samsung 20"
[14:46] <napoleao> want to remove that :)
[14:46] <purplebluesilver> QUESTION: Friend runs centos cant see flash. What format can I convert a flash movie into so he can see it? What program would I use to do that?  Thanks.
[14:46] <Slart> purplebluesilver: try avidemux
[14:46] <Basttrax> napoleao, Thats odd. I have dual monitors and dont get that
[14:46] <theadmin> purplebluesilver: He needs a flash player. Flash ain't convertable.
[14:47] <DaZ> purplebluesilver: mplayer plays flv
[14:47] <Basttrax> purplebluesilver, Centos can download flash last time i checked
[14:47] <theadmin> napoleao: Maybe there's some sticker on your monitor? Never heard of such things.
[14:47] <napoleao> yeah
[14:47] <Slart> purplebluesilver: if it is a movie.. not a flash.. ahem.. whatever they are called.. executables? ie a game or some such
[14:47] <theadmin> DaZ: I think he means an .swf
[14:47] <Basttrax> oh
[14:47] <Basttrax> yeah flash
[14:47] <Basttrax> lol
[14:47] <napoleao> in the top corner, i have "Samsung 20"
[14:47] <purplebluesilver> theadmin, really? Once I download it I cant change it to mpg4 of avi or something?
[14:48] <Schabh1> hi
[14:48] <napoleao> and in my laptop in the corner "laptop13"
[14:48] <theadmin> purplebluesilver: Maybe ffmpeg can do it, but i really don't know how to use that piece of awesomeness
[14:48] <bazhang> purplebluesilver, ubuntu support or centos?
[14:48] <yinlong> who knows how to make tomcat connect to mysql in ubuntu?
[14:48] <DaZ> ffmpeg won't do it, probably because swf isn't a movie <:
[14:48] <napoleao> i can show the screenshot if you want :)
[14:49] <Basttrax> napoleao, oh I believe you. lol
[14:49] <napoleao> lol
[14:49] <Basttrax> napoleao, not that easiest thing to google :(
[14:49] <napoleao> yes i tried
[14:49] <Basttrax> Anyone else have dual-screen setup?
[14:49] <hdon> what karmic package provides -llualib?
[14:49] <Haffe> Basttrax: Yes.
[14:50] <Haffe> I run 10.04 with two 20.1" monitors.
[14:50] <Basttrax> Haffe, Do you have the name of the monitor in the top right corners?
[14:50] <purplebluesilver> ok thanks
[14:50] <Haffe> Basttrax: Note that I have noticed.
[14:50] <Traveler0> unetbooting doesnt work for me sothing else
[14:50] <bazhang> Traveler0, for creating bootable usb of Ubuntu?
[14:50] <Basttrax> Hmm. napoleao, what have you done!
[14:50] <Basttrax> lol
[14:51] <napoleao> what i did, was "detect monitors"
[14:51] <Basttrax> k
[14:51] <napoleao> then it did detect the second monitor
[14:52] <Slart> hdon: have you tried lua5.1 ?
[14:52] <Slart> !info lua5.1
[14:52] <Basttrax> is "Show displays in panel" checked in the display settings
[14:52] <Traveler0> bazhang i am too lazy too boot from cd
[14:53] <bazhang> Traveler0, not my question, unetbootin is software to create a usb bootable flash key; you stated it does not work, for which OS?
[14:53] <napoleao> yes
[14:53] <Basttrax> napoleao, uncheck that
[14:53] <Basttrax> lol
[14:53] <Vigo> I am using eth2? Why is that?
[14:53] <napoleao> already tried that
[14:53] <napoleao> same thing hehe
[14:53] <Slart> hdon: there's also liblua5.1-0 and liblua50-dev
[14:54] <Basttrax> unchecked it, then a restart?
[14:54] <cratel> never had problems with firestarter and internet connection sharing before. Today it isn't working. I have dhclient server/client setup. The connected computer finds an IP no problem, can ping the host, but cannot find the internet. ?
[14:54] <Basttrax> I checked it and it came up on mine
[14:54] <hdon> Slart, i'm aware. but for 5.1 i can't find a package that provides liblualib.a or liblualib.so
[14:55] <crs> Hi there chaps. I am having wireless connection problems with my AR2413 using ath5k and networkmanager ubuntu 9.10. Network works very well until some point then it stops working. Network manager claims it is still connected. While I disconnect it manualy it won't be possible to connect again before reboot. It will ask for wpa key few times but nothing will connect. On the other laptop (next to not working
[14:55] <crs> one) it works perfectly all the tim (running 9.10 as well but with different network card). I have tried to use madfiwi and wicd instead but I couldn't find any networks at all. Is there a known solution? It is being extremely annoying and makes laptop unusable. Please if anyone had the same problem to speak up. I have tried to google but found only exactly the same problem posted on forums by other people
[14:55] <crs> but no solution were given.
[14:55] <FloodBot2> crs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:55] <crs> Oh dear, didnt know it is gonna be that long. Sorry. :)
[14:55] <Slart> Vigo: since ubuntu remembers previous network interfaces.. the info is save in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[14:55] <napoleao> ok, Bastrax will try to restart, have not done that yet ;)
[14:55] <stein1> is mount.cifs missing from ubuntu 9.10 live CD? In other words, can it mount CIFS shares?
[14:55] <Vigo> Slart: Thank you.
[14:56] <Slart> Vigo: *saved
[14:56] <Basttrax> napoleao, K. let me know how it goes. dont forget to uncheck the box first!
[14:56] <Slart> Vigo: you're welcome

[15:08] <Basttrax> WishingMaster, I was just googleing it
[15:09] <Basttrax> WishingMaster, Yeah I would head over there
[15:09] <Basttrax> WishingMaster, They sometimes take a bit longer to respond, but are better with stuff like that
[15:10] <WishingMaster> Basttrax, a lot of people are facing this issue , have you upgraded to lucid yet?
[15:10] <borja_> hi man
[15:10] <tripelb> Dear #ubuntu -- this was my answer to the question about my user friend with centos, bad flash, telling me it cant be done or go to centos. (I'm learning.) OK HERE IT IS.    GOOGLE convert swf to avi linux  ((I didnt know the term swf before I asked the QUESTION)
[15:10] <tripelb> and lucky for me someone said I think he means swf so I looked it up.
[15:12] <brontosaurusrex> tripelb: swf to avi? how can you convert something nonlinear/interactive to linear avi?
[15:12] <underdev> is there a way to set theme information via a shell script?
[15:12] <underdev> if so, can someone point me in the general direction?  I don't think i need my hand held, i just don't know where to start...
[15:13] <WishingMaster> Basttrax, usb-modeswitch   this is what i think is needed to solve the issue, what do you think?
[15:13] <tripelb> brontosaurusrex, you save the file.
[15:13] <underdev> I would like to configure toolbar placement, panels in the toolbars, etc
[15:13] <brontosaurusrex> tripelb: ?
[15:13] <hdon> underdev, i think gnome has something like the MSWindows Registry that contains that info... maybe
[15:13] <Basttrax> WishingMaster, Yeah i would give it a try. I don't see any definate answers in google
[15:14] <underdev> hdon, ty
[15:14] <Basttrax> WishingMaster, Since it's more recent, i don't think there's a proper fix yet ;( sorry
[15:14] <underdev> yeah, i should have specified gnome desktop...
[15:14] <yiyimar> hello
[15:14] <tripelb> brontosaurusrex, this one is probably windows but the idea is the same. E.M. Magic Swf2Avi is the extremely powerful Flash(swf) converter
[15:14] <tripelb> software
[15:14] <tripelb> which can convert SWF to AVI and other popular formats. This
[15:14] <tripelb> software is designed to convert swf for your mobile video player as
[15:14] <tripelb> avi, 3gp, mp4, mp3, PSP, PS3, iPod, iPhone, Apple TV, XBOX 360, PS3,
[15:14] <FloodBot2> tripelb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:14] <tripelb> Zune etc and also CD, VCD, DVD or Blu-ray player.
[15:14] <yiyimar> ola
[15:14] <yiyimar> k aem
[15:15] <Random832> how do i make flash work consistently with pulseaudio? I've had deadlocks, crashes, and sound just not working
[15:15] <tripelb> sorry bot
[15:15] <Pirate_Hunter> has 10.4lts server been released yet?
[15:15] <Basttrax> Cant wait for HTML5 to take over :S
[15:15] <bazhang> Pirate_Hunter, no
[15:15] <dagny_taggart> Random832: same here, i uninstalled pulseaudio but it's still inconsistent
[15:16] <Pirate_Hunter> bazhang, hmmm, do you know when the server version will be released considering the desktop has been released as beta
[15:16] <brontosaurusrex> tripelb: again, swf is usually an interactive thingy, when all this are video formats, so you can't just convert that...., no matter what converters will trying to promis
[15:16] <tripelb> swf to avi linux http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=2&ved=0CBgQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhelp.lockergnome.com%2Flinux%2Fconvert-swf-AVCHD-3GP-AVI-iPhone-iPod-Mpeg--ftopict505846.html&ei=l023S4v6HIiyswPMjenoDA&usg=AFQjCNGhbRW-moGlCgk5yOoYy1WJg-NslQ&sig2=ZN_CwIpNB9DFzQcS34WtFA

[15:27] <JabberWalkie> ok, so I am looking to backup my data, should I use an external or internal drive for this? or does it matter?
[15:27] <Basttrax> JabberWalkie, Depends. Both is really the best option.
[15:27] <Basttrax> And external you can keep offsite though
[15:28] <JabberWalkie> hmmmm, k thanks
[15:29] <Basttrax> JabberWalkie, i would say external if you had to pick though

[15:32] <bzaks> does anyone know if Ubuntu has a hard time connecting to wireless B?
[15:32] <jason201> connects well on my netbook
[15:32] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: proboly depends more on your hardware
[15:32] <owaislone> have to ask something about Quickly
[15:32] <owaislone> no one is answering on #Quickly
[15:33] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: do you have any proprietary drivers installed for your wireless?
[15:33] <bzaks> I have the Intel Wifi 5100, running `lshw -C network` says that it supports abgn
[15:33] <PatrickGleason> owaislone: what is quickly?
[15:33] <FreezingFriday> Test.
[15:33] <owaislone> Quickly, the rapid app toolkit... kinda
[15:33] <FreezingFriday> Sorry.
[15:33] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: is there a prop. driver available?
[15:33] <bzaks> PatrickGleason: No I don't .... I'm running what ubuntu installed out of the box.
[15:33] <toomy> hi
[15:34] <hal_9000> welcome to the machine
[15:34] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: can you hook up with ethernet to check for prop. driver?
[15:35] <bzaks> I'm on another computer right now - I'm looking for it
[15:35] <PatrickGleason> owaislone: ask your question and if someone knows they will answer
[15:36] <owaislone> i wrote an ubuntu-cli app with quickly 3.90
[15:36] <sofer> -1
[15:36] <sofer> -2
[15:36] <owaislone> then started with a quickly ubuntu-application app
[15:36] <owaislone> imported my cli app in the GUI ubuntu-application
[15:36] <PatrickGleason> owaislone: try to keep your story all on one line. easier to follow.
[15:36] <bzaks> dang Ubuntu
[15:36] <owaislone> works fine
[15:36] <tachiro1> hmm, <tapping chin> there's gotta be a distro intended for phones, aren't there?
[15:36] <owaislone> quickly package wont make it depend on the cli app
[15:36] <daftykins> bzaks: do you really have 802.11b hardware around still?
[15:36] <bzaks> and their slow kernel release schedule.
[15:37] <Slart> tachiro1: android?
[15:37] <bazhang> tachiro1, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[15:37] <tachiro1> that's what that is?

[15:38] <PatrickGleason> tachiro1: yeah. here http://www.ubuntu.com/products/mobile
[15:38] <tachiro1> wonder what the name is
[15:38] <tachiro1> beautiful
[15:38] <tachiro1> thanks
[15:38] <bzaks> PatrickGleason: Thanks for the help - if I want to support my card better - I can either A) compile the latest kernel or B) download the driver... when does the next ubuntu release come out?
[15:38] <PatrickGleason> tachiro1: actually theats more for internet tablet things....
[15:38] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: soon. beta is out now i think, or alpha.... check our #ubuntu+1 for the latest
[15:39] <tachiro1> ohh ok
[15:39] <bzaks> Bah - screw it. I've always wanted to compile a kernel! ;-)
[15:39] <bzaks> oh wait
[15:39] <bzaks> nevermind
[15:39] <bzaks> I have .31
[15:39] <tachiro1> which brings me back to something i mentioned earlier, i really gotta learn about how to get media playback to an acceptable quality here, i'm using ubuntukarmic
[15:40] <tachiro1> space*
[15:40] <daftykins> tachiro1: form it as a question and ask away
[15:40] <tachiro1> umm

[15:40] <PatrickGleason> tachiro1: check this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EmbeddedUbuntu
[15:41] <tachiro1> pat: this is crazy, time for another cup of coffee to digest this
[15:42] <tachiro1> dafty: still remixing
[15:42] <bzaks> PatrickGleason: So upon further research - http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/ says that my kernel (.31) should support the drivers innately. However - its just the B) network its not detecting.

[15:54] <bazhang> MichaelXX2, sure there are
[15:54] <yellabs> hi there
[15:54] <MichaelXX2> This might not be the place for this, but has anyone tried running Linux on a Dingoo thing?
[15:54] <MichaelXX2> I heard they implemented that a while ago
[15:54] <bazhang> MichaelXX2, what version of Ubuntu?
[15:54] <MichaelXX2> I have no clue
[15:55] <MichaelXX2> It's called "Dingux"
[15:55] <bazhang> MichaelXX2, so speculative, or a support issue
[15:55] <MichaelXX2> I just want to know if it improves the performance or not
[15:55] <bzaks> Interesting - I've checked an iPhone, an Android Phone, a Window 7 client and a Ubuntu 9.10 client. The only one that detects the wireless b router is the windows client.
[15:55] <MichaelXX2> I heard it makes the emulators run more smoothly.
[15:55] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: if I may be so bold, why 802.11 b?
[15:56] <bazhang> MichaelXX2, any connection to Ubuntu in there ?
[15:56] <WishingMaster> oh lord what any why i have done to my sys ?
[15:56] <bzaks> PatrickGleason: because the router is here at my parent's house and I was just trying to get wireless for the holiday weekend.
[15:56] <MichaelXX2> I never knew the difference between ubuntu and linux
[15:56] <MichaelXX2> I'm sorry, they all seem to be used in the same context
[15:56] <bazhang> MichaelXX2, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat please
[15:56] <MichaelXX2> Will do.
[15:57] <PatrickGleason> bzaks: its a b router? wow-

[16:06] <LincoN^> I try to install it
[16:06] <roadapathy> ARRGHHH. Anybody with ATI HD3200 trying to recompile the kernel???
[16:06] <Relyt> menu.lst is in /boot if you have grub1
[16:06] <Relyt> grub2 doesn't use menu.lst
[16:06] <larrylamsy> I could not find any it my /boot.
[16:06] <qazibasit> actually i am jealous to bill gates and hence dont want to use windows
[16:06] <qazibasit> :)))))
[16:07] <roadapathy> Actually, all I really want right now is a boot MENU...I want to be able to SELECT my stupid Kernels when I boot. Why does it force just the 1 kernel?
[16:07] <Relyt> Do you have GRUB?
[16:07] <qazibasit> u have to edit the script
[16:07] <qazibasit> yes in GRUB
[16:07] <BluesKaj> Relyt, usually Direct rendering is automatic if your graphics card driver is capable
[16:07] <roadapathy> larrylamsy: Ubuntu 9.10? It doesn't have a menu.lst.
[16:08] <larrylamsy> Yes , I have GRUB located in my /boot. But there is no menu.lst.
[16:08] <dgm> hi. is there anyway to convert an .mp4 file to an .avi? thx
[16:08] <Relyt> I have an NVidia Geforce FX 5200 that says the driver and the card is capable of DR, but it says it's not enabled..
[16:08] <roadapathy> SPEAKING OF GRUB/GRUB2. How can I get the menu back? I like the old style menu where it lets me choose from a list of Kernels! :-(
[16:08] <qazibasit> update the driver
[16:08] <tsyj2007> roadapathy: yes,it's /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[16:08] <shevy> i am using some ubuntu ... kernel 2.6.31 and using grub 1.97-beta4 - i don't find the grub menu.lst though. Does it have another name on Ubuntu, or is there some other file that lists the available kernels? I am asking because i just finished compiling a custom kernel
[16:08] <BluesKaj> Relyt, run glxinfo | grep direct
[16:08] <Dr_Willis> roadapathy:  just set it not autohide the menu in the /etc/default/grub file
[16:08] <roadapathy> tsy: I know about grub.cfg. I edit that too....I just want a menu
[16:08] <LincoN^> It gets bluescreen evrytime it goes in windows installation
[16:09] <roadapathy> Dr: THANKS!!!!!
[16:09] <roadapathy> :-D
[16:09] <ardchoille> Relyt: keep in mind that direct rendering is not the same as 3d graphics acceleration
[16:09] <larrylamsy> But it does not allow me to edit the grub.cfg.
[16:09] <Pirate_Hunter> !grub2 | shevy
[16:09] <tsyj2007> roadapathy: you can remove grub-pc,then install grub
[16:09] <Relyt> It's when I try to play the game, the output in Terminal says NVIDIA: Direct rendering failed, attempting indirect rendering.
[16:10] <shevy> ah yes found it quickly Pirate_Hunter thanks. new name seems to be 'grub.cfg'
[16:10] <Bokkie> how can I copy files from the original filesystem to an nfs share while using a live CD?
[16:10] <Pirate_Hunter> shevy, I don't mess with it haven't had a need to yet but at least you found it
[16:10] <bzaks> Bokkie: You can connect to a file share all the same as if you were using the normal version
[16:10] <larrylamsy> Many thanks, guys.
[16:10] <userRr> esto es ubuntu españa xD!
[16:11] <qazibasit> so u found what u were looking for larrylamsy
[16:11] <ardchoille> shevy: don't edit grub.cfg driectly
[16:11] <Pirate_Hunter> !es | userRr
[16:11] <qazibasit> larrylamsy thats amazing
[16:11] <Bokkie> bzaks: that works, I know... but somehow I can' t write to the share... so I must be doing something wrong...
[16:11] <bzaks> Bokkie: Then its a permissions issue
[16:11] <BluesKaj> Relyt, check this out ,  http://www.pastebin.ca/1855826 , sub gdm for kdm in those commands , since i run kde

[16:12] <bazhang> Relyt, right click
[16:12] <bzaks> Bokkie: what NFS mount are you using? Samba? FTP?
[16:12] <Relyt> Oh, sorry, newb question :P

[16:13] <bazhang> userRr, here is english #ubuntu-es for Spanish
[16:13] <userRr> ;) #ubuntu-us

[16:14] <userRr> lol, bye bye
[16:14] <whallalla> Hi guys. i installed ubuntu in a pc where win7 was installed. So now win 7 is not bootable. I have the cd in and tried o bootrec.exe /fixboot but no way. also /rebuildbcd says that the file system is not recognized
[16:14] <bzaks> Bokkie: yes - but who is hosting it?
[16:14] <kubanc> how do i reintsall gdm
[16:14] <Bokkie> bzaks: the other ubuntu machine...
[16:15] <ardchoille> !fixgrub | whallalla
[16:15] <chazco> How long will 9.10 be supported for?
[16:15] <whallalla> ardchoille, I lost win after ubuntu
[16:15] <ardchoille> whallalla: oh, sorry
[16:15] <Relyt> I've tried reinstalling the driver, even with that method...DR was still not work
[16:16] <bzaks> Bokkie: Okay - try doing a triple 7 on the directory - I'm assuming you have all the users set up correctly?
[16:16] <Bokkie> chazco: since 8.04 is the previous LTS, I guess the difference between those too 8-)
[16:16] <chenxing> hai
[16:16] <Bokkie> bzaks: afaik... I'll have a try.
[16:17] <chazco> Bokkie - Just found it on wikipedia - April 2011. Thanks :)
[16:17] <chenxing> 你们是谁啊
[16:17] <whallalla> If I run bootsect /nt60 C: it says: Access Denied
[16:17] <chenxing> 怎么都是english
[16:17] <Pirate_Hunter> 64 bit or 32 bit desktop, are the 64 bit application more stable than errrrh 5yrs ago... I am being serious. Does flash still has its qwerks working on 64bit?
[16:17] <bazhang> chenxing, #ubuntu-cn for Chinese
[16:17] <Bokkie> Hmmz... there's a thought: create the "ubuntu"  user on the server, and that'll do the trick 8-)
[16:17] <kubanc> ** (gdm-binary:869): warning **: coudn't connect to system: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system/_bus_socket:no souch file or directory. what should this mean?
[16:18] <cousteau> when does ubuntu exactly enable the horizontal scrolling on laptop touchpads? I'm on lubuntu and it doesn't work by default, I want to know what should I edit to make it work by default
[16:18] <cousteau> maybe a script on /etc/X11/Xsession.d/
[16:19] <whallalla> any idea guys?
[16:19] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, I am just about certain that xorg.conf takes care of that, however, you might want to get a second opinion on that
[16:20] <cousteau> isn't xorg.conf empty since Hardy or so? (except for Nvidia cards)
[16:20] <Pirate_Hunter> whallalla, if you lost windows just fix grub, reinstall it or manually edit it
[16:21] <cousteau> (ok, it's not empty, it simply doesn't exist)
[16:21] <Pirate_Hunter> whallalla, what do you mean you lost it, when you reboot doesn't grub give an option to boot into windows? the weird screen with he count down and options
[16:21] <shevy> update-grub helped, the new kernel was automagically recognized and added :)
[16:21] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, yeah forgot about that due to many comps working without xorg.conf they left it out but you can make it yourself
[16:22] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, of course that good news for top end pcs but lower end pcs don't have such luck I had to make mine but than I did have a back up of it
[16:24] <cousteau> well, this is just a single line command: xinput set-int-prop 'SynPS-2 Synaptics TouchPad' 'Synaptics Edge Scrolling' 8 1 1 0
[16:24] <cousteau> but afaik it works well on ubuntu by default, it doesn't on lubuntu, that's why I want to know how does Ubuntu make it work by deault
[16:25] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, lubuntu?
[16:26] <cousteau> yes, an LXDE-based version
[16:26] <cousteau> I tried ubuntu netbook on my netbook, but it uses too many opengl things and doesn't work very well
[16:27] <maquetero-ppc> mini-
[16:27] <cousteau> (also, karmic takes a lot to boot, so I installed lubuntu lucid)
[16:27] <maquetero-ppc> just to install what you want
[16:27] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, just redo your xorg with all options that should get everything working like it should and pop that option in their as well otherwise it might complain or mess up things which you might have to edit in rescue mode
[16:28] <maquetero-ppc> cousteau: I did it in my imac and is awesome
[16:28] <cousteau> maquetero-ppc: did what?
[16:31] <Milp_main> Does ubuntu support yaffs2?
[16:31] <Pirate_Hunter> well i'll be off in a sec to reformat this comp and add a new hd
[16:32] <Pirate_Hunter> quick a question I can answer?
[16:32] <Milp_main> Does ubuntu support yaffs2?
[16:32] <Milp_main> :) theres a question for you :D
[16:33] <maquetero-ppc> install exactly what you want in those machines(netbook). maybe ubuntu run a lot things you won't  use. and of course you can costumize all system for a fast init
[16:33] <magicvibes> i <3 ubuntu and all the #ubuntu help :D
[16:34] <cousteau> Milp_main: a quick search on ubuntu packages doesn't show any package name or description containing yaffs
[16:34] <Pirate_Hunter> maquetero-ppc, apparently so but I aint certain since I never used that but this link makes it seem so - http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/cd8731bd3c512688?pli=1
[16:34] <hdon> magicvibes, mouselook is broken and alt+tab is broken on some systems on ubuntu. yeah, rock on. :\
[16:34] <Milp_main> ok thanks cousteau, its a filesystem btw
[16:35] <cousteau> Milp_main: yeah, I guessed it from its name
[16:35] <DustyStyx_> Greetings.  I've a problem in that my network connection is not fully passing network traffic to programs in gnome (firefox, chat programs, etc.).  I can ping servers from within a terminal screen, and I can access the webportal (<IP_ADDRESS>) of my DLS modem through Firefox, but if I try to display an actual webpage, it will time out. Any suggestions?
[16:35] <DustyStyx_> using 10.04
[16:36] <Bokkie> bzaks: no luck yet... now I apparently don't have rights to read the source HDD (the laptop's HDD)
[16:36] <cousteau> maybe the DNS?
[16:36] <Pirate_Hunter> ok im off for a few long hours and DustyStyx check DNS in /etc/resolv.conf its probably pointing to default which would be something like <IP_ADDRESS> erh add your own ones
[16:37] <DustyStyx> cousteau: maybe, but I'm using the ping command: ping www.yahoo.com and it resolves an IP just fine.
[16:37] <cousteau> oh
[16:37] <cousteau> try to use the ip instead of the domain name, just in case...
[16:37] <DustyStyx> it will actually resolve an ip for any webpage name I ping to.
[16:38] <DustyStyx> I'll try that thanks
[16:38] <juancarlospaco> hi, i need help or opinion, i need to setup a crappy PC for public to use it like a Ciber, conected directly to a good hardware server, what do you recommend?, LTSP?, Userfull?, Virtualbox+RDP?
[16:40] <Code_Bleu> Has anyone done an upgrade of their OS that is using a dm-crypt / LUKS encrypted HD?  I have a laptop that is encrypted and am wanting to upgrade to 10.04 when its released, but I just want to make sure there wont be any issues with it being encrypted
[16:41] <SwedeMike> Code_Bleu: I've had problems with that ever since I upgraded to 9.10, I logged a case for 10.04 and it's underway
[16:42] <juancarlospaco> LSTP seems complex, maybe its better to make a VBOX on the server and connect the client with RDP
[16:42] <Code_Bleu> SwedeMike: what kind of problems have you had?
[16:42] <domcyrus> trying to add xinput settings to /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90trackpoint
[16:43] <domcyrus> but they are not getting sourced when starting gnome...
[16:43] <DustyStyx> cousteau: alright, it does look like it may be the DNS.  I'm getting to various wepages using the IP well enough. O
[16:43] <DustyStyx> I'll look into the file Pirate_Hunter indicated
[16:43] <cousteau> sometimes the dnss work slow...
[16:44] <guitar-maniac> Hey! Can anyone help me with .iso files through wine? Id like to install one game and i have it .iso files..
[16:44] <DustyStyx> I think it might have gotten confused when I tried connecting to a seperate wireless point yesterday
[16:44] <cousteau> guitar-maniac: mount it
[16:44] <SwedeMike> Code_Bleu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516524
[16:44] <cousteau> sudo mount -o loop file.iso /mnt
[16:44] <guitar-maniac> msg/cousteau How can i mount it?
[16:45] <cousteau> and then tell wine to use /mnt as unit E: or whatever
[16:45] <mawst> I think I want to change pulse to alsa
[16:45] <mawst> pulse seems buggy
[16:45] <erUSUL> !iso | guitar-maniac
[16:46] <guitar-maniac> Ok, i try that link. thanks! :)
[16:46] <cousteau> well, the link is only needed if the image is on a weird format
[16:46] <cousteau> "iat" is the program for that, I think
[16:47] <magicvibes> can someone help me diagnose and possible fix my Art Manager? every time i click "download only" or "install" it crashes
[16:47] <m0ar> How do I install kde on lucid?
[16:47] <ardchoille> !lucid | m0ar
[16:48] <brontosaurusrex> is there a way to see diff bewteen two files with gedit or similar?
[16:48] <ardchoille> brontosaurusrex: I use meld for that
[16:49] <ardchoille> !info meld
[16:49] <m0ar> ardchoille: I'm aware of that.
[16:49] <ardchoille> m0ar: then you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[16:49] <brontosaurusrex> ardchoille: ty
[16:49] <ardchoille> brontosaurusrex: yw
[16:50] <m0ar> ardchoille: A simple question like that?
[16:50] <ardchoille> m0ar: all lucid questions go in #ubuntu+1 right now
[16:51] <m0ar> ardchoille: Since I asked in both I figured one would be faster to reply.
[16:52] <m0ar> ardchoille: Not like it's totally irrelevant
[16:52] <brontosaurusrex> ardchoille: cool stuff, i could saw at once that no merging is required, just a replace
[16:52] <ardchoille> brontosaurusrex: yep, meld is nice
[16:53] <ardchoille> m0ar: the "Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1" from the bot should have tipped you off
[16:53] <autoclesis> !media players

[16:56] <lalla> wha is it?
[16:57] <ardchoille> lalla: This prevents you from appearing in global WHO/WHOIS by normal users, and hides which channels you are on.
[16:57] <sireorion> i got one question.... have any one here used motion before?
[16:57] <magicvibes> can someone help me diagnose and possible fix my Art Manager? every time i click "download only" or "install" it crashes

[16:59] <mossy> Anyone know if 10.04 works in parallels
[16:59] <Wilabob> Hi, I'm having a problem installing ubuntu...  For whatever reason the installer won't install grub. The alternate cd gets to installing the grub boot loader and then says error installing the package grub-pc into /target/ and on the live cd it says configuring grub boot loader and then it reboots. When it starts it says Grub error: file not found. Any suggestions?

[16:59] <mossy> That was my fault.
[17:00]  * mossy is sorry
[17:00] <ardchoille> mossy: no worries
[17:00] <mossy> \o/
[17:00] <Vigo> Wilabob: What version?
[17:00] <mossy> I guess I'll scoot on over there then
[17:00] <Wilabob> Vigo: 9.10
[17:01] <dagny_taggart> Wilabob: do you have enough disk space on /target/ ?
[17:01] <rogue780> Hello! I'm trying to get urbanterror running, but when I run it my mouse sticks to the bottom right. I can start moving it but then it keeps jumping back to the bottom right. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[17:01] <Vigo> Wilabob: Is it standalone , or are there other OSs on the box?
[17:04] <Vigo> rogue780: Is that a deb package or is it a Wine something?
[17:04] <rogue780> Vigo, no. It's just a linux binary from urbanterror.net
[17:05] <paul3333> hi...ubuntu won't keep logged in new users I add from my super-user, anyone have a clue?
[17:05] <Vigo> rogue780: Do you have the Alien installed?
[17:05] <kltrg> Hi. My Epson Stylus SX410 printer/scanner is not recognized as a scanner, neither by xsane nor by gscan2pdf. It is, however, listed as a supported device on sane-project.org which seems to be the underlying backend for scanners in linux (am I right?). What could be the problem? Do I have an outdated sane version on my Ubuntu 09.10?
[17:06] <Wilabob> Vigo: sorry was afk... It's a standalone and the hard drive has 160GB so I think thats enough
[17:06] <ardchoille> !alien| Vigo rogue780
[17:06] <jmcantrell> ubuntu one syncing working for anyone?
[17:06] <Wilabob> Vigo: And I've installed on this machine a bunch of times before so I don't know why it's doing this
[17:06] <rogue780> ardchoille, uh, was not using RPM files...
[17:07] <ardchoille> rogue780: just wanted you to know since Vigo asked if you had it installed
[17:07] <Vigo> Wilabob: Yes, I was also looking at dagny_taggarts reply, let me look up some data...
[17:07] <rogue780> oh, my bad. no I do not have alien installed.
[17:08] <flyingtabmow> anyone know how to load a modmap file at login?  (unfortunately can't use .Xmodmap or similar, has to be via a script... the loading is conditional)
[17:08] <Vigo> Wilabob: Grub error? you suppose or ,hrmmm
[17:09] <cousteau> flyingtabmow: I put a script on /etc/X11/Xsession.d for something similar
[17:09] <jrib> flyingtabmow: see xmodmap's man page for syntax: xmodmap FILE
[17:09] <cousteau> you can also add it to Startup Apps
[17:09] <Wilabob> Vigo:  I don't know... It just started doing this recently.
[17:09] <zero-cool> hello did anybody was install ubuntu from external hard drive?
[17:09] <flyingtabmow> cousteau: i've tried that, but it seems to get clobbered... it doesn't stick around
[17:10] <Vigo> rogue780: Alien can be a few things, binaries and such may need a package from the repository to work correctly.
[17:10] <flyingtabmow> cousteau: or did you put it after 99x11-common-start?
[17:10] <Noble> What is the default filesystem on / on a 9.10 install?
[17:10] <zero-cool>  i was taking unetbootin but when process done i reboot and boot they told me no operanting sistem
[17:10] <cousteau> flyingtabmow: actually, I put it on 50 or so
[17:11] <erUSUL> Noble: ext4
[17:11] <Roasted> hey - is there any way to netsend a windows box a message from ubuntu?
[17:11] <Noble> erUSUL: ty
[17:11] <cousteau> are you using an absolute path for the file?
[17:11] <Vigo> Wilabob: Welcome to Freedom! It is a bit of a learning curve, or forgetting curve, I am still looking that data up, i386 or 64bit?
[17:12] <Wilabob> Vigo: i386
[17:12] <sine_> how do i search a file i need to fine gdm.conf gdm keeps freezing on my and i have to restart it so i want to enable debug
[17:12] <rogue780> Vigo, I think it's an X configuration problem. I remember fixing this before by editing xorg.conf...but with the new ubuntu versions, there is no more xorg.conf really
[17:12] <flyingtabmow> cousteau: hmmm... something must be odd about my gnome setup, when it's low numbered like that it doesn't stick around (i've also tried adding it to startup applications, which many people online suggest, but that doesn't seem to work for me either, even though i know it's being run)
[17:12] <jrib> sine_: should be in /etc/
[17:12] <cousteau> flyingtabmow: are you using an absolute path for the file? because if you're using `xmodmap file` or `xmodmap ~/file` it will probably not work
[17:12] <Hekos_> nbr 10.4, any way to unlock the panel ?
[17:12] <iceroot> Hekos_: #ubuntu+1
[17:12] <sine_> ok of course that is where all the config files are stored. just out of curiosety how do i search for a file
[17:13] <flyingtabmow> cousteau: i've tried it both ways... it seems to run successfully, but then afterwards something else loads a different one i'm guessing
[17:13] <Hekos_> iceroot, k
[17:13] <jrib> sine_: use « locate » or « find »
[17:13] <sine_> thanks
[17:13] <Wilabob> Vigo: Actually, I think when I installed I used the 9.04 disk then updated :S
[17:14] <cousteau> flyingtabmow: or add something like `bash -c 'sleep 10 && xmodmap FILE'` to your startup apps
[17:14] <cousteau> (without the backticks)
[17:14] <flyingtabmow> cousteau: cool i'll try that, thanks

[17:15] <Enkk> Hello everyone from a new ubunter! :)
[17:15] <Pirate_Hunter> realised I can't format my comp yet well that was awkward
[17:15] <Vigo> Wilabob: Ahh, that helps, a little, still looking,,,
[17:15] <jmcantrell> ubuntu one syncing working for anyone?
[17:15] <Enkk> could i ask something? :D
[17:16] <Pirate_Hunter> Enkk, please do otherwise this channel is pointless
[17:16] <sine_> what is the config file for gdm
[17:17] <switch10_> Pirate_Hunter: hey just FYI I was unsuccessful in recovering data with testdisk.  It did recover the partitions though..
[17:17] <sine_> i cant seem to find one
[17:17] <Vigo> Wilabob: Secondary HDD or a single unit?
[17:17] <Pirate_Hunter> switch10_, I see, was it because you repartitioned first or because the data had been overwritten?
[17:17] <ardchoille> sine_: What are you wanting to do?
[17:17] <Wilabob> Vigo: It has two HDD but I'm using the primary one
[17:18] <sine_> i want to kno why gdm keeps freezing and i lost my work
[17:18] <Vigo> Wilabob: This might be it: > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1445095
[17:18] <Enkk> so, i have a logitect webcam and i would like to found some  drivers for it
[17:18] <Pirate_Hunter> switch10_, I am curious to know what went wrong
[17:18] <sine_> someone suggested turning on debug mode so i can read whats happening
[17:19] <Enkk> but i don't know what version it is
[17:19] <Enkk> so, how can i discover it?
[17:19] <Maletor> What should I set the permissions to on /var/www/mydomain.com ???
[17:19] <crankharder> after installing 9.10 server it can't find any boot medium -- I booted into rescue mode and there's nothing inside of /boot -- any ideas why that may be?
[17:19] <cousteau> Enkk: webcam drivers are usually not needed
[17:19] <switch10_> Pirate_Hunter: I think it was because I repartitioned. I think it may have worked if I had just deleted the partition and not written over it with a new one.  test # 2 I guess :)
[17:19] <ardchoille> Maletor: I suggest leaving them as they are so the server can do what it needs to do
[17:19] <cousteau> just open cheese and try to see if it works
[17:19] <Pirate_Hunter> Maletor, give permission to www-data and yourself
[17:20] <Maletor> Ok.
[17:20] <Wilabob> Vigo: Nah, didn't help
[17:20] <Enkk> cousteau, is not that easy, i already tried but it doesn't work. It stays "on" for like 20 seconds, then the imagine turns black
[17:20] <Pirate_Hunter> switch10_, will wait for test 2, if you wouldn't mind could you write your results in the forum, I'll be able to read exactly what you did and how you did it
[17:21] <switch10_> Pirate_Hunter: I want to test it on a failed HDD, but i need to find one first.
[17:21] <cousteau> Enkk: maybe if you wait a bit... my cam looks black until it gets good light
[17:21] <DasEi> crankharder: maybe corrupt disk ?
[17:21] <DasEi> (installer medium)
[17:21] <switch10_> Pirate_Hunter: yeah I will document the next test in a post
[17:21] <Vigo> Wilabob: Are you upgrading or doing a fresh install over an older version?
[17:22] <jmcantrell> ubuntu one syncing working for anyone?
[17:22] <Wilabob> Vigo: Fresh install
[17:22] <Enkk> cousteau i waited for about 30 min :p
[17:22] <Enkk> and also, it doesn't work in emesene.
[17:22] <switch10_> jmcantrell: yes.  are you unable to connect?
[17:22] <Wilabob> Vigo: Well actually there was another ubuntu on it but I erased it and then installed this one
[17:22] <Pirate_Hunter> switch10_, just make your hdd fail I bet you can find ways to do so online without actually breaking it, I know a while back I found one to test how many writes you can do on a usb before it completely fail lol, wonder if it cna be changed to hd instead but you may not be able to recover it afterwards :s
[17:22] <crankharder> DasEi: my ubuntu disk or the hard drive?
[17:23] <cousteau> webcams stopped working on MSN when they changed the protocol, I think
[17:23] <DasEi> crankharder: the cd, did you verify the d/l and the cd itself ?
[17:23] <brontosaurusrex> whats a decent 'home' icon, other than lil houses?
[17:23] <Pirate_Hunter> jmcantrell, no clue don't use it, yet
[17:23] <jmcantrell> switch10_: it connects, but nothing syncs.
[17:23] <Vigo> Wilabob: Ok, that may matter, I am still reading a few Documents,,,,
[17:24] <Enkk> cousteau, so one one is able to use it?
[17:24] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, webcams work on empathy with msn, you might need to use the package from the ppa
[17:24] <switch10_> jmcantrell: have you tried removing the config file?      rm .config/ubuntuone
[17:24] <cousteau> Pirate_Hunter: dunno, the webcam support was dropped from aMSN since the protocol changed
[17:24] <Pirate_Hunter> brontosaurusrex, home icon can be whatever you want even a head or a picture of yourself
[17:25] <jmcantrell> switch10_: i guess i can try that.
[17:25] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, oh amsn errrrh haven't touched that in a while I thought it wasn't being supported anymore
[17:25] <Enkk> well i know that emesene introduced the webcam only in lastest versions
[17:25] <Vigo> Wilabob: This is the Official Document on that:> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation , about middle page is : Installing on external or RAID hard disks
[17:26] <layla> ..؟
[17:26] <cousteau> Pirate_Hunter: it is, they released 0.98.3 a while ago... it even supported audio/video conversations on 0.98.1 before the protocols were changed
[17:26] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, just did a server install with raid and  lvm I might be able to help, what is your problem?
[17:27] <cousteau> what isn't moving is that aMSN2 thing
[17:27] <Enkk> also emesene2 is going to be up
[17:27] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: I'm not doing a server install. The problem is that grub won't install
[17:27] <Pirate_Hunter> cousteau, oh didn't know but what is wrong with using the app provided by ubuntu empathy is doing great with video support i've tested it, however, not recently
[17:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, stick with lilo for raid I still havent managed to get grub working, lilo is simple
[17:28] <cousteau> well, maybe they fixed it, but I think it might have also stopped working there
[17:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, and did you put boot in raid1 otherwise it wont boot the system which is a pain
[17:28] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: Can I do that without reinstalling?
[17:29] <thechef> If you have a PC running Linux, is it still a PC?
[17:29] <zubin71> hello, anyone here worked on iptables?
[17:29] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: I don't know..
[17:29] <cousteau> "Voice and video call using SIP, XMPP, Google Talk and MSN." - I thought aMSN was the only with voice support...
[17:29] <zubin71> i`ll rephrase; anyone worked on any project related to iptables?
[17:29] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: I was running grub before but I needed to reinstall and now it's not working.
[17:29] <switch10_> thechef: PC= personal computer.  no matter what the apple commercials tell you...
[17:29] <DasEi> thechef: what else ?ß sure
[17:29] <Vigo> Pirate_Hunter: Wilabob stated earlier is rather new at Ubuntu.
[17:30] <Adhok> switch10: /agree
[17:30] <switch10_> thechef: so yes.  an apple is a personal computer as well...
[17:30] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, that I ain't too sure but if it is a clean install reinstalling shouldn't be a problem, however, you may want to wait for soemone who can help you fixing that without reinstallinh
[17:30] <frxstrem> is there an alternative to iTunes for Ubuntu that would let me sync my iPod touch to my computer?
[17:30] <Wilabob> Vigo: Alright... what guide do you want me to follow? How do you know I have a RAID HDD
[17:30] <cousteau> well, maybe I'm wrong and the protocol change only affects aMSN
[17:30] <erUSUL> !ipod | frxstrem
[17:30] <thechef> okay, then some game publishers and apple must be weird
[17:31] <Pirate_Hunter> Vigo, oh didnt read that
[17:31] <DasEi> !ipod | frxstrem
[17:31] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, you had grub running earlier with raid and it booted the system before you had to reinstall?
[17:31] <Vigo> Pirate_Hunter: It was stated earlier, all good.
[17:32] <Lord_Chewbakka> any1 know a good CDburning program?
[17:32] <Pirate_Hunter> Vigo, ok i missed it oh well will be more helpful if I can
[17:32] <DaZ> k3b
[17:32] <Vigo> Wilabob: Do you know if you used the LVM?
[17:32] <switch10_> frxstrem: yes I wrote a how to with a vid..  http://u-bunted.blogspot.com/
[17:33] <Pirate_Hunter> Vigo, that is what I was think but they said grub was working and I would assume just like the server version lilo would be chosen as the boot loader instead of grub
[17:33] <Wilabob> Vigo:  I don't know what that is... :S
[17:33] <Pirate_Hunter> Lord_Chewbakka, depends on you but brasero, gnome-baker are all good
[17:33] <frxstrem> well, will any of those methods work on a not jailbroken iPod touch/iPhone?
[17:33] <ety> hello...anybody know the channel for windows user?
[17:33] <DaZ> ety: ##windows ? :f
[17:33] <switch10_> frxstrem: see my link..
[17:33] <frxstrem> switch10_: yes I did
[17:34] <Lord_Chewbakka> Pirate_Hunter: currently on xcdroast, but it wont work, is brasero good?
[17:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, lets start from the start what exactly happened, what tutorial did you follow to install ubuntu on raid, since at the moment I am going in circles
[17:34] <switch10_> frxstrem: it works great on a non jailboken ipod touch..  I have done many for friends.
[17:34] <Vigo> Wilabob: Okee dokee, Large Volume Manager
[17:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Lord_Chewbakka, they are all good depending on what you mean by good, brasero don't work for me but gnome-baker does with the patch
[17:34] <frxstrem> switch10_: alright, I'll try it
[17:35] <Lord_Chewbakka> Pirate_Hunter: how come it doesnt work, only work with sum disbs?
[17:35] <ety> Da2: thanx
[17:36] <Pirate_Hunter> Lord_Chewbakka, it all depends on your system but try them and see which is betetr for you
[17:36] <DaZ> ...
[17:36] <brontosaurusrex> Pirate_Hunter: sure, i mean what could be used as a symbol really, found greek 'theta'
[17:36] <Wilabob> Vigo: I tried the alternate cd and the live cd. I used the live cd last. I followed the instructions and chose Guided - use entire disk. I also tried manual and made a seperate /boot partition but that didn't work either. The installation went through, got to 95% and then said configuring boot loader and restarted.
[17:37] <Lord_Chewbakka> Pirate_Hunter: thank maan
[17:37] <lydia> Hello, how can I deactivate network access for wine ?
[17:37] <Pirate_Hunter> brontosaurusrex, sorry I lost you...
[17:37] <Vigo> Wilabob: Ah, Thank you, I believe that Pirate_Hunter and I can assist you better now,,,,
[17:38] <erUSUL> lydia: i do not think you can do that easily
[17:38] <magicvibes> how can i setup my ATI Radeon ?
[17:38] <brontosaurusrex> Pirate_Hunter: nm
[17:38] <erUSUL> !ati | magicvibes
[17:38] <magicvibes> one second compiz recognizes and produces good quality gui effects, next second it tell me not supported graphics
[17:39] <Wilabob> Vigo: I'm in the alternate cd right now, and I'm at Partition disks, should I choose anything different than I did before?
[17:39] <jcp> Is there a way to instruct xdg-open to invoke vlc to open mms:// urls? Chrome is using xdg-open to open streaming ASF files, but Totem doesn't know how to understand them while VLC does.
[17:39] <Lord_Chewbakka> Pirate_Hunter: brasero worked like a charm! awsome!
[17:40] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, if the first time you chose full install and the second time you partitioned a section for boot it wont work I had the same issue had to literally wipe the disk to zero and clear mbr before redoing the process again
[17:40] <Vigo> Wilabob: Not really, just select Use Entire Disk, what Pirate_Hunter said is important also.
[17:41] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, for soem reason once raid is chosen you can't undo the partitions unless the disk is wiped I found that quite strange
[17:41] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: I never chose raid. So how do I wipe the mbr?
[17:42] <DasEi> Pirate_Hunter: soft raid ? you can edit the md device, but if you do other then resize, data gets lost same as in standard hd
[17:42] <coachj> can someone tell me how to disable the screen lockout?
[17:43] <DasEi> coachj: scrrensaver ?
[17:43] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, you never chose raid, sorry, so why did you try to create a boot partition, what went wrong the first time
[17:43] <Pirate_Hunter> DasEi, ok
[17:44] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: Old bios and I had windows in the seccond partition.
[17:44] <coachj> DasEi:::yes after a few minutes it goes to a blank screen then requires the password to get back in
[17:44] <Lord_Chewbakka> does ubuntu have a built in partition tool?
[17:44] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: I started this whole thing so that I could get rid of windows...
[17:44] <igoryonya> Hello, my panels freeze, after boot, intermittently. Once, I boot, they are ok, an other time, they freeze, and when they freeze, I have to reboot and hope that they will not be frozen after boot. How can I fix it? Ubuntu 9.04 64bit Gnome.
[17:44] <PatrickGleason> Lord_Chewbakka: yup- gparted
[17:44] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, I think a reinstall is in order otherwise you can try fixing grub yourself
[17:44] <Pirate_Hunter> !grub | Wilabob
[17:45] <Vigo> !gparted | Lord_Chewbakka
[17:45] <DasEi> coachj: system > preferences > screensaver
[17:45] <coachj> DasEi:: Oh my I didn't see it....WOW
[17:45] <Pirate_Hunter> igoryonya, you can start by reading the logs in /var/log/ for problems i.e. dmesg, sys.log, message and kernel
[17:46] <DasEi> coachj: you'll find it there
[17:46] <Wilabob> Pirate_Hunter: Thing is I've reinstalled like 4 or 5 times since deleting windows and it has never worked, It always has the same grub error.
[17:46] <crankharder> I think my installation issue is that the grub installer thinks my boot HD is hd0 -- when it's actually sde.  I'm still in the installer, dropped to a shell and there's no menu.lst in side of /boot/grub -- where can I edit this?
[17:46] <coachj> DasEi: got it LOL
[17:46] <DasEi> crankharder: karmic ?
[17:47] <crankharder> 9.10
[17:47] <DasEi> crankharder: is karmic, it uses grub2 now, the config changed, file to edit is /etc/default/grub, but..
[17:47] <escalador_> wtf is this
[17:48] <DasEi> crankharder: I didn't get your whole question/issue
[17:48] <PatrickGleason> escalador_: ?
[17:48] <Lord_Chewbakka> ubottu: do i have to restart and wait for boot, because if i shut down my computer it crashes?
[17:48] <rdogg112> guys i was mkfs'ing my external hard drive, and i accidently closed the terminal, now not even dmesg will see the drive
[17:48] <escalador_> sry i choose the wrong channel
[17:48] <rdogg112> did I kill my drive or can i fix it?
[17:48] <crankharder> DasEi: i think it's trying to boot to hd0 and not sde (which is where i choose to install to)
[17:48] <crankharder> ...it's done this before
[17:48] <DasEi> Lord_Chewbakka: ubott.. is the channel ro-bot
[17:48] <ziel0ny> hi
[17:48] <escalador_> and the wrong server xD
[17:48] <crankharder> had to manually change it because the installer screws up
[17:48] <Lord_Chewbakka> lol
[17:48] <DasEi> !brain > Lord_Chewbakka
[17:48] <coachj> If I wanted to go to a them that looked more like the them on 9.10 which one would i select?
[17:48] <crankharder> DasEi: I don't see hd0 or sde in that config file
[17:49] <coachj> Theme*
[17:49] <Pirate_Hunter> Wilabob, boot livecd follow the instructions in this link http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_wipe_a_hard_drive_clean_in_Linux it even gives you the command to wipe mbr. I think its best to start with a clean hd also you might want to check for any issue with ubuntu and your board, however I very much doubt it
[17:49] <Lord_Chewbakka> DasEi: im such a noob
[17:49] <rdogg112> so can I fix my drive?
[17:50] <crankharder> DasEi: I'm looking for what used to be /boot/grub/menu.lst
[17:50] <DasEi> Lord_Chewbakka: np, everybody got it's pros n lacks
[17:50] <Vigo> Wilabob: Yes, what Pirate_Hunter said, this is an older post, it is relevant to the issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=752939&highlight=wipe+disk
[17:50] <igoryonya> Pirate_Hunter: what's the command to see last few lines in the log?
[17:51] <maverickapollo> tail -f
[17:51] <DasEi> crankharder: it is a complete new grub now, see :
[17:51] <DasEi> !grub2
[17:51] <coz_> crankharder,  that has changed with grub2... to get a better idea about this you may want to visit the #grub channel
[17:51] <Pirate_Hunter> igoryonya, tail / tail -100 to see the last 100 lines but I would stick with less which shows you everything
[17:51] <Lord_Chewbakka> DasEi: understood, some day il be leet you see ;D
[17:52] <Pirate_Hunter> maverickapollo, tail -f is useful when spotting error or checking what programs are doing
[17:52] <coz_> crankharder,  its all script driven now
[17:52] <Vigo> !best_bot
[17:53] <Vigo> Ratso, I forgot the command, that is bad
[17:53] <DasEi> crankharder: so whole story is you have grub installed on first hd and want it to boot another hd ?
[17:53] <Pirate_Hunter> Lord_Chewbakka, you'll never be leet there is no such thing where always learning something new or how to do something we already knew a different way
[17:53] <frxstrem> can you revert the ifuse command?
[17:53] <coachj> Ubuntu just does take advantage of my video card like  !@#$% (another Distro) does, wonder why.
[17:54] <DasEi> coachj: ati ?
[17:54] <coachj> DasEi: yes
[17:54] <BitEncrypt> How do i delete a icon from my application menu
[17:54] <frxstrem> BitEncrypt: System -> Preferences -> Main Menu, find the icon there and remove it
[17:55] <BitEncrypt> thx
[17:55] <cdc09> or right click on a panel and go properties
[17:55] <DasEi> coachj: there is a problem with xorg since hardy, as ati's propitary won't install easily anymore, but the openhd driver , least for 2d does well, which modell ?
[17:55] <Pirate_Hunter> BitEncrypt, right click menu > edit menu > find category where is located > remove
[17:55] <BitEncrypt> thx
[17:56] <Vigo> Online Ubuntu bot> http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[17:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Vigo, are you just messing with the bot?
[17:56] <coachj> DasEi: Radon 9000
[17:56] <Lord_Chewbakka> Pirate_Hunter: thx for the peptalk, my spirit is now broken D:
[17:57] <Vigo> Pirate_Hunter: Not me! I was just figuring or remembering those commands or calls,,,no not me!
[17:57] <DasEi> coachj: with  that can use openradeon only for this time, lowest is a 9200 can be tricked as far as I know
[17:58] <coachj> DasEi: didnt follow you
[17:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Lord_Chewbakka, dont be it is actually more useful this way believe me
[17:58] <Synapse-> is there a channel for usb linux drivers?
[17:58] <Synapse-> or dev channel for USB
[17:59] <Vigo> Synapse: Try #hardware or such?
[17:59] <cdc09> how do u stop a running telnet connection in terminal
[18:00] <Pirate_Hunter> cdc09, typing \q or quit should do
[18:00] <Vigo> Telnet-: Sorry, did not see the -, did you try #hardware?
[18:00] <cjware> does anyone here give me some advice on ubuntu server
[18:00] <DasEi> coachj: did you look under system > hardwaredrivers if there is an option for your card ?
[18:00] <Synapse-> how do you view the usb devices in karmic?
[18:00] <DasEi> Synapse-: lsusb
[18:01] <cdc09> Pirate_Hunter, \q doesnt work, aswell as cntrl+z and contrl+x
[18:01] <Vigo> !kill
[18:01] <coachj> DasEi: it doesn't give an option, I am looking for 3D like to play UT once in awhile
[18:01] <Pirate_Hunter> cdc09, typing quit should do
[18:01] <DasEi> coachj: that'll be hard on that , can try :
[18:01] <hafidz> cdc09 kill process
[18:01] <cdc09> tried that too, this ofcourse has nothing to do with my open irc tab
[18:01] <Brokie> hi guys
[18:01] <gbear14275> my mouse stopped working... not sure what to do.  Its showing up under lsusb... but yeah... not sure where to go from here... anyone able to help?
[18:02] <blendmaster1024> how do i go about getting a program in the repository?
[18:02] <hafidz> gbear unplug the mouse and checked back
[18:02] <Brokie> Slightly off subject, but http://digg.com/odd_stuff/boycottjusthost <--- Justhost has a time machine, they use to suspend accounts BEFORE they cause problems :)
[18:02] <DasEi> coachj: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[18:02] <jrib> !packaging | Brokie
[18:02] <jrib> blendmaster1024: erm, that was for you
[18:02] <Pirate_Hunter> blendmaster1024, if it is in the repository just type apt-get install or aptitude install than the name of the app
[18:02] <cdc09> ahh no worries, the connection was closed on the other end. its weird that hotkeys to kill it didnt work
[18:02] <coachj> DasEi: i'll try it
[18:02] <DasEi> coachj: after that ..
[18:03] <Synapse-> I used lsusb and the device doesn't show up in lsusb because there is no driver for linux
[18:03] <Synapse-> is there a way I can mount the filesystem somehow?
[18:03] <gbear14275> hafidz: unplugged and plugged back in... no effect... or did you want me to do something else?
[18:03] <jrib> blendmaster1024: do you want to install a program that is already in the repositories, or do you want to add a program to the repositories that currently isn't in it?
[18:03] <Synapse-> or register some generic driver for the filesystem
[18:03] <blendmaster1024> Pirate_Hunter, i'm trying to get my application into the repository
[18:03] <Vigo> Synapse-: Mouse?

[18:15] <Synapse-> thats my startup and it doesn't mount because there is no driver that exists for the roland
[18:16] <Synapse-> and I basically need to load recognize the filesystem somehow
[18:16] <eremite> Vigo: should should update before upgrading, always
[18:16] <JenniferB> no one?
[18:16] <DarsVaeda> hi, does somebody know how to install digikam 1.2.0 on ubuntu 9.10?
[18:16] <eremite> !ask | JenniferB
[18:16] <Synapse-> in windows you basically drag a file onto the filesystem and it works
[18:16] <DarsVaeda> (or can provide a link)
[18:16] <Vigo> karan: Whoops, eremite is correct, I thought you had an updated system. My apologies.
[18:16] <DasEi> Synapse-: I assume next to your internal it's the only additional storage ?
[18:17] <eremite> Synapse-: you can drag an d drop in Linux filestsyems too
[18:17] <localnutter> JenniferB: If you have FTP running, then just give the FTP address to the file.
 its alright i just reinstall 9.10 thats why..
[18:17] <karan> reinstalled*
[18:17] <Synapse-> its some shitty storage on the roland, probably like a flash card
[18:17] <Synapse-> but the USB recognizes, if I could just mount the filesystem somehow, I'd be good
[18:17] <eremite> karan: ALWAYS update your current machine befoer upgrading, unless you are doing a *clean* install.
[18:17] <Vigo> karan: Ok, eremite is still correct, update that, then upgrade to whatever.
[18:17] <Synapse-> its never been done before
[18:18] <DasEi> DarsVaeda: install cheese and see if it gets detected
[18:18] <coachj> DasEi: xorg comes up blank.
[18:18] <Synapse-> which is why I wanted help from USB driver folks
[18:18] <DarsVaeda> not A digikam... :D
[18:18] <DarsVaeda> the program digikam :D
[18:18] <DasEi> coachj: as in default in karmic, yes
[18:18] <aar> Hi, I'd like to ask lynx to dump the content from a list of URLs into a single file. I'm doing: "lynx -source [origin] > [output]", but that replaces the content of teh file each time. How could I make it append the data to what's already there in the file, rather than substitute it?
[18:18] <DasEi> !info digikam | DarsVaeda
[18:18] <Ali__> i cant connect to a wireless networks
[18:18] <coachj> DasEi: so i need to type in what you sent?
[18:18] <DarsVaeda> yeah its just 1.0.0 in the repo
[18:18] <Synapse-> * Cannot join #hardware (Channel is invite only).
[18:18] <eremite> Synapse-: do not use ENTER as punctuation.  Type everything in one line so that we can understand it and follow it.  Otherwise it just looks like partial sentences that make little to no sense to many of us.
[18:19] <DarsVaeda> i want 1.2.0
[18:19] <DasEi> DarsVaeda: sudo apt-get install digicam
[18:19] <Synapse-> sorry
[18:19] <DasEi> DarsVaeda: have you searched for newer version ?
[18:19] <Harrison_Bergero> Pulseaudio anyone?
 <eremite> okay
[18:19] <DarsVaeda> in apt-get?
[18:19] <bahaa> in xchat-gnome how to see what's in room???????????????????????
[18:19] <DasEi> DarsVaeda: no, on the projects webpage
[18:20] <DarsVaeda> yes there is version 1.2
[18:20] <DasEi> DarsVaeda: a deb or a tarball ?
[18:20] <eremite> bahaa: please elaborate.  What do you men, "how to see what's in rooom?"
[18:20] <bahaa> *who is
[18:20] <Synapse-> HEH, this roland USB is so touchy
[18:20] <eremite> bahaa: look at the room list?
[18:20] <bahaa> eremite: how to see who are the users in a room
[18:20] <Synapse-> it locks up the USB chain
[18:20] <bahaa> eremite: where?
[18:20] <DasEi> Synapse-: I assume next to your internal it's the only additional storage ?
[18:21] <Synapse-> internal?
[18:21] <Synapse-> additional storage?
[18:21] <DasEi> hd
[18:21] <eremite> bahaa: look at the room list, usually to the left hand side of the chat session.  Try enabling that window in your preferences if you do not see it
[18:21] <Synapse-> I dont think you know what a roland is
[18:21] <Synapse-> it probably has 8MB of storage, its for music man
[18:21] <DasEi> Synapse-: you said usb storage
[18:21] <Synapse-> it is USB storage
[18:21] <bahaa> eremite: there is a pane and it only has (freenode       #ubuntu)
[18:22] <frxstrem> what is the best BitTorrent client for Ubuntu?
[18:22] <eremite> Synapse-: what are you talking about?  Your Roland synth?  What about it?
[18:22] <Synapse-> but a very valuable storage point for music
[18:22] <Synapse-> yeah
[18:22] <Synapse-> I can't get the filesystem mounted
[18:22] <jasonmchristos> transmission is simple and works
[18:22] <jasonmchristos> !survey
[18:22] <DasEi> Synapse-: so is it a instrument /w storage or a usb storage ? I can't know whole of roland
[18:22] <eremite> bahaa: on the RIGHT, sorry.  If you do not see the list on the left then you need to go into your preferences and enable it, I would assume.  I use XCHAT and IRSSI, not XCHAT-GNOME which is different.
[18:22] <bahaa> frxstrem: I tried the default the good thing about it that it's easy and you can choose the files you want to download from a toorent
[18:22] <jasonmchristos> !ask
[18:23] <Synapse-> sorry, not using enter from now on, yeah, I can get the device to recognize in linux, but there is no driver for it and I think I can mount the filesystem somehow, maybe if I could use a USB snooper
[18:23] <jasonmchristos> !best
[18:23] <sangho> i have question about time-complexity
[18:23] <jasonmchristos> vuze doesnt work like it does on winbloze
[18:23] <jasonmchristos> so i would go with tranny
[18:23] <sangho> what is the difference of theta-notation between Big-oh-notation?
[18:23] <Synapse-> DasEi: yes, google dr-880 if you want, it has windows drivers, but nothing for linux, it lets me upload guitar pro songs in midi format for the drum and bass sections
[18:23] <frxstrem> bahaa: well, my experience (and I friends too) is that it's really, really slow
[18:24] <DasEi> Synapse-: if fdisk -l don't list ist, got a driver issue, try rosegarden maybe
[18:24] <Synapse-> rosegarden?
[18:24] <frxstrem> bahaa: also, that are features that almost every BitTorrent client have
[18:24] <eremite> !google | Synapse-
[18:24] <DasEi> Synapse-: you're the one to fetch the link ;-)?
[18:25] <DasEi> !info rosegarden | Synapse-
[18:25] <jasonmchristos> u fetch
[18:25] <Synapse-> why would I use rosegarden
[18:25] <Synapse-> when I have a piece of hardware that destroys that
[18:25] <DasEi> Synapse-: as it got an interface for midi devices
[18:25] <Synapse-> OK, nevermind
[18:25] <Synapse-> thanks for the help
[18:25] <Synapse-> not much learned
[18:25] <Synapse-> later
[18:25] <FloodBot2> Synapse-: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:25] <bahaa> frxstrem: you are right it's slow but I tried tornado and it's slower!!!!!!
[18:26] <eremite> Synapse-: you can use VST's to accomplish the same thing.
[18:26] <Vigo> aar: I found the Man on that, kinda funny page,
[18:27] <gadriel> anyone have an idea how to record a .pls stream that requires http authentication?
[18:27] <gadriel> I can record streams with vlc usually, but this one uses cookies and they're not supported in vlc
[18:27] <Vigo> aar: Here it is:> http://www.mirbsd.org/htman/i386/man1/lynx.htm sorta
[18:27] <eremite> gadriel: run a line from yoru mic/line-in to your speakers and use something like Audacity to record the stream.
[18:28] <DasEi> gadriel: authenticate as used to, ply in vlc, record with audacity or streamripper
[18:28] <DasEi> play*
[18:28] <gadriel> I can't play it vlc at all since vlc doesnt support cookies tho
[18:29] <coachj> DasEi: don't think it worked here is output of jeff@Ubuntu:~$ glxgears
[18:29] <coachj> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[18:29] <DasEi> gadriel: tried streamripper from cmdline
[18:29] <gadriel> in*
[18:29] <eremite> gadriel: play it in ANY player, run a line from mic input to speaker input and then hit record with audacity.  It will record flawlessly.
[18:29] <DasEi> coachj: fglrxinfo says ?
[18:30] <Vigo> !pastebin
[18:30] <StevenR> anyone any idea why the panel brightness control doesn't appear in the notification stack any more? I'm running 9.10, up to date with security fixes. Everything else that uses the stack seems to work. Is there some way to configure the stack?
[18:30] <gadriel> eremite: you mean cable from the mic into the speaker?
[18:30] <gadriel> interesting:)
[18:30] <coachj> DasEi: fglrxinfo
[18:30] <coachj> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[18:30] <coachj> jeff@Ubuntu:~$
[18:30] <DasEi> eremite: sounds dangerous
[18:31] <Vigo> StevenR: Metacity running?
[18:31] <eremite> gadriel: cable from MIC/LINE-IN running into your STEREO-OUT.  You will not be able to hear the audio being recorded because your speaker-out line will be plugged into your mic.
[18:31] <StevenR> Vigo: not sure
[18:31] <eremite> DasEi: how so?  Works fine and isnt dangerous at all.
[18:32] <gadriel> shouldn't be dangerous yeah... now i have to find a cable :)
[18:32] <igoryonya> Pirate_Hunter: Well, I would only need to see the log for several minutes of recording of unsuccessful (frozen) panel, why would I want to see an entire log?
[18:32] <Evil_> Can someone help me get wireless working for 9.1?
[18:32] <aar> Vigo, thanks for that, I'll check it out.
[18:32] <DasEi> eremite: I never tried so, but basically put a highlevel out on a mic in ..
[18:32] <Ali__> how can i adjust ips in ireless adaptor ?
[18:32] <Vigo> StevenR: Overall Contrast?
[18:32] <StevenR> Vigo: what do you mean?
[18:33] <Vigo> aar: You are very welcome.
[18:33] <eremite> DasEi: you would obviously adjust the volume setting and do some testing prior to reocrding.  Obviously.  Anyone who is a recording artists should know to test and make sure your volume isnt too loud.  Its common sense.
[18:33] <Vigo> StevenR: In System>Settings
[18:33] <DasEi> eremite: also if he can play it, audacity will catch it from the s-card directly
[18:33] <Vigo> StevenR: ERm System<Preferences
[18:33] <mrman208> hello
[18:34] <mrman208> anyone need any help?
[18:34] <Evil_> Yep
[18:34] <gadriel> DasEi: How do I use audacity like that?
[18:34] <DasEi> eremite: might be fine on pc, on common pa could easily kill the  mic-in's IC
[18:34] <mrman208> Evil_: What do you need?
[18:34] <Evil_> I can't get my wireless working, I have dual-boot Windows7 and Ubuntu 9.10
[18:34] <coachj> DasEi: can I revery by deleting xorg.conf?
[18:34] <DasEi> gadriel: set it to record from line
[18:35] <eremite> DasEi: who the hell is using a PA fo0r recording an audio stream?
[18:35] <eremite> LOLLOLOLOL
[18:35] <StevenR> Vigo: errm. System -> Preferences -> where next?
[18:35] <mrman208> Evil_: What wireless card do you have?
[18:35] <Vigo> StevenR: Appearance
[18:35] <SickPuppy> hey there , I wanted to try to compile xtables-addons using the tutorial from here-- http://linuxtechie.wordpress.com/2009/12/03/iptables-tarpit-support-in-karmic/  and i get a build failure ,log of which is here-- http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kuWv65Q6
[18:35] <Evil_> How do I find out? lol
[18:35] <SickPuppy> any ideas anyone ?
[18:35] <nrgeek> Hello all
[18:35] <mrman208> Evil_: You'd have to open up your computer actually
[18:35] <eremite> gadriel: seriously, I do what I suggested to you all the time.  I record streams by plugging my speaker-out to my mic and hit record.  I watch the levels and make sure they are not too high or in the red and everything si ALWAYS fine.
[18:35] <``y7> will this work with an intel cpu: ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso   ?
[18:36] <mrman208> Evil_: actually, ive been having the same problem
[18:36] <eremite> ``y7: yes
[18:36] <DasEi> eremite: hmm, or even a better sound card, hopefully they are protected
[18:36] <Evil_> I see
[18:36] <``y7> eremite, will it work with an amd cpu as well?
[18:36] <mrman208> Evil_: i just get to the internet through my macbook
[18:36] <eremite> ``y7: yes
[18:36] <Evil_> The cable works fine lol, but the cable doesn't reach to my room
[18:36] <gadriel> eremite: i'd like to listen to it while I record tho - otherwise I'd do that
[18:36] <zohar> hi, someone knows how to get sound with Via audio card on ubuntu 9.1 ??
[18:36] <gadriel> might still use it to record overnight too
[18:36] <``y7> what happened to when one had to dl different iso's for diff cpus? are those days behind us?
[18:36] <Evil_> I don't really want to take the laptop apart to see, because well, it was a birthday gift from my wife, and I don't want to mess it up.
[18:36] <DasEi> gadriel: tried streamripper from cmd-line ?
[18:36] <mrman208> Evil_: oh, its a laptop?
[18:37] <Evil_> Yes
[18:37] <gadriel> audacity would be ideal
[18:37] <eremite> gadriel: get a splitter cabel and plug into yoru speakers.
[18:37] <gadriel> no ill try that too
[18:37] <nrgeek> Hey Im wanting to dual boot xp on one hd and Ubuntu 9.10 on a seperate physical drive .. what do I need to get a boot menu to boot this way ?
[18:37] <DasEi> coachj: yes, can revert that way, but maybe paste your xorg.conf to have a look at ?
[18:37] <StevenR> Vigo: I can't see any option for that. If I use the Fn-hotkeys the panel brightness does change.... the notification stack doesn't show it though
[18:37] <mrman208> Evil_: then id suggest getting a USB wireless adapter somewhere and use that
[18:37] <Evil_> Alright :)
[18:37] <Vigo> gadriel: Yes, I use to do that with a splitter from Radio Shack or someplace.
[18:37] <mrman208> Evil_: thats all i can think of, i got one for about 7$ off of amazon but it hasnt arrived yet :P
[18:38] <coachj> DasEi: i'll try pasting
[18:38] <Evil_> haha :)
[18:38] <mrman208> :D
[18:38] <Evil_> Thanks, I need to restart. I'll brb.
[18:38] <Ali__> i need help with wireless connections
[18:38] <DasEi> coachj: is why I changed to nvidia, even if you get this to working, that card is very capable, used nvids are quite cheap nowadays
[18:38] <DasEi> isn't
[18:39] <denwerko> is there somebody to help me with setting of iptables ? i need to forward one port to other IP in LAN
[18:39] <coachj> DasEi: Section "device"

[18:40] <eremite> DasEi: odd, i tried running   whatis pastebinit  in terminal and it wasnt found.
[18:41] <ChogyDan> mrman208: I think allot of that is fixed in lucid
[18:41] <eremite> nrgeek: http://ubuntu-georgia.org/installing_ubuntu_and_windows_xp_on_separate_drives
[18:41] <DasEi> eremite: apt-cache search (also try show here) pastebinit

[18:41] <Vigo> StevenR: Radeon?
[18:41] <mrman208> ChogyDan: thanks, i installed the Lucid beta but got rid of it

[18:44] <WishingMaster> so no lucid experts in here?
[18:44] <ilmenite> hi, i just got the latest sources from kernel.org, and its not showing me any other processor families other than x86_64.... i need to build a kernel for another machine.... which is x86... anyone have any suggestions?

[18:44] <ChogyDan> ilmenite: have you tried the mainline kernel ppa?
[18:45] <zohar> hi, someone knows how to get sound with Via audio card on ubuntu 9.1 ??
[18:45] <ilmenite> ChogyDan, didn't understand you well, ppa?
[18:45] <DasEi> eremite: have you got it installed ?
[18:45] <eremite> DasEi: got what installed?
[18:45] <ChogyDan> ilmenite: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds!

[18:46] <nrgeek> YES DasEi .. eremite already gave me the info
[18:46] <DasEi> :)
[18:47] <biptoa> hello
[18:47] <eremite> DasEi: nope, no need for pastebinit, I rarely use pastebin.  I host my own output on my own server if I need to share it with somone.  Pastebinit is not needed for me.
[18:47] <DasEi> coachj: need more hel to bring it to that form ?
[18:47] <nrgeek> I searched all over google.. could find lots on dual boot on one drive just couldnt find on multiple hds .. I knew this would be the place to ask
[18:48] <gadriel> i know i have a splitter and i can't find it, however i found something else that I was looking for earlier
[18:48] <bahaa> eremite: where should I look for it ??????   http://xchat-gnome.navi.cx/wp-content/uploads/2006/01/irc-prefs.png
[18:48] <DasEi> eremite: yes, but is why whatis doesn't work then, but repo-search does
[18:48] <alex_557> hi first irc chat of my life, i'm having problems with docky. where should i go?
[18:48] <eremite> DasEi: apt-cache search .   <--- this gets a list of cache'd apps available, not what is installed.
[18:49] <bahaa> guys does any body use compaq presario 2100 ?????????????????????????????????????
[18:49] <nrgeek> Ive been using linux distros off and on for many years .. the newest distros have finnaly gotten close enuff to really give desktop non techs a alternative to win and mac
