[20:20] <DjDark> k instead of typing the entire iwconfi results, what are we looking for lol
[20:20] <costre> aaaaand it's gone!
[20:20] <DarkSector> thanks
[20:21]  * DarkSector goes back to work
[20:21] <jXP3> Ziber, maybe you have two different addresses, for example <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>?
[20:21] <tony_> is there a comand i have to install
[20:21] <_blackwater_> DjDark is there entries for wlan0
[20:21] <tony_> ?
[20:21] <DjDark> yes
[20:21] <schweegi> mgolisch: thank you :) but what must i type into the nano /etc/default/grub? the wiki tells me that i must edit it. afterwards i should run update-grub ..
[20:21] <MTecknology> !flash
[20:21] <naxa> hey it keeps spamming :O
[20:21] <undecim> tony_: make sure you have compiz-gnome and compiz-plugins installed
[20:21] <Lurner> is anyone familiar with my Samba/ Win File share issue ?
[20:21] <tony_> undesim:- is there a comand i have to install
[20:21] <Lurner> or did the flood bot kill my question ?
[20:22] <_blackwater_> DjDark are you able to connect to any wireless access point at all.
[20:22] <tony_> yes i already hace it
[20:22] <Ziber> jXP3: I'm trying to get it to listen on IPv6, an address which NOTHING else is listening on...
[20:22] <DjDark> everything past "fragment thr=2346 B" is 0
[20:22] <DjDark> link, signal, noise, etc
[20:22] <ejv> to the irssi users: those spam bots have a common advertisement, put this in your config: { level = "ALL"; pattern = "<PUT PATTERN YOU WANT IGNORED HERE>"; regexp = "yes"; channels = ( "#ubuntu" ); }
[20:22] <capleton> Hey all, I'm having a strange problem with flash playing in chromium.  It will play video just fine, but sound will only come through for a few seconds, then stop, it will only resume if I click somwhere on the seek bar.   I've tried reinstalling flash, any other ideas on how to fix it?
[20:23] <DjDark> i was connected to my access point earlier...dunno what happenex
[20:23] <DjDark> d*
[20:23] <naxa> how can I "clean" my grub list? it's full of old kernels. I can't see anything!
[20:23] <naxa> i mean autocleen :)
[20:23] <naxa> a
[20:23] <vickyh> I've tried to troubleshoot, following step by step, but on the terminal it doesn't even show the outputs it's supposed to, so i can't continue troubleshooting
[20:24] <mgolisch> schweegi: no idea, doesnt seem like there is anything intresting to set there
[20:24] <jXP3> Ziber, maybe this would help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451986
[20:24] <Pici> ejv: 1) you shouldn't modify your irssi config file manually 2) The channel modes don't allow them to join currently. I had removed that restriction earlier because hoped that the bots had given up.
[20:24] <Lurner> Naxa.. I just found out the other day that the newest version of ubuntu use a new Grub2 loader
[20:24] <BluesKaj-L> naxa, best to use synaptic to clean up old linux-image(s)
[20:24] <tony_> they are instaled
[20:24] <schweegi> mgdolisch: okay, thank you for the moment.. i restart now
[20:25] <naxa> Lurner, I think I already use grub2... at least 1.98
[20:25] <tony_> they are installed
[20:25] <naxa> BluesKaj-L, thanks I will try that

[20:26] <_blackwater_> DjDark sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[20:26] <blaha> how can I view a mysql database?
[20:26] <vithos> how do i override the automatic video driver selection on 10.04?
[20:27] <DjDark> no scan results
[20:27] <augustl> the USB stick guide on windows at http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download doesn't work for the 64 bit version, it seems. How can I write the iso to an usb stick for ubuntu 10.04 desktop 64 bit?
[20:27] <_blackwater_> DjDark lspci | grep net
[20:28] <_blackwater_> DjDark manufacture of wlan controller?
[20:28] <naxa> augustl, i don't know the answer but I think if you could specify exactly what's not working with the guide the others maybe could help you more easily
[20:28] <DjDark> linksys
[20:29] <augustl> naxa: the tool that the guide suggests doesn't let me select the 10.04 image I just downloaded.
[20:29] <_blackwater_> DjDark what else
[20:29] <jXP3> blaha, the simplest way is to use 'mysql' command. 'mysql -u root' if you have no password set for root user.
[20:29] <naxa> augustl, I see thanks for the info. I try and google it, as I don't know about this myself.
[20:30] <_KAMI_> hi
[20:30] <blaha> jXP3: I have learned how to start mysql, log in, create databases. I'm trying to figure out how to see the data that's in a database
[20:30] <Dantix> afternoon! I've just to compile from source an rtl8188 module and when I try to load it ubuntu said invalid module format, how can I troubleshoot this issue.
[20:30] <DjDark> after the grep net it says intel corp.......ethernet controller; but i dont use my ethernet card
[20:30] <augustl> trying latest version of unetbootin
[20:30] <owenll> !hi | _KAMI_
[20:31] <jXP3> blaha, use mydb; show tables; select * from table1;
[20:31] <DjDark> wlan access point not associated
[20:32] <nmvictor> hi to everyone?
[20:32] <blaha> nice! thanks jXp3
[20:32] <jXP3> no problem :]
[20:32] <owenll> !hi | nmvictor
[20:32] <SuperMiguel> #join lubuntu
[20:33] <_blackwater_> DjDark sudo lshw -C network | grep vend
[20:33] <nmvictor> thanks owenll
[20:33] <naxa> augustl, well I don't know if it's a good idea but if I were you I would try to download the 64-bit iso manually and then try to browse it manually and see if it works. But I'll try and come up with something better, I just wanted to tell you that that's what I would try.
[20:33] <ejv> Pici: i didn't mean to rain on your parade, just that users should feel empowered to block garbage too, also I personally find editing the config directly far easier than dancing around irssi's internal commands; I also snapshot the config before making major changes...
[20:33] <augustl> naxa: that's what I did
[20:33] <naxa> augustl, I see
[20:34] <nmvictor> is their a lightweight alternative for openoffice impress?
[20:34] <_KAMI_> Will Canonical support the OpenOffice Conference 2010?
[20:34] <augustl> nmvictor: I use google docs
[20:34] <Pici> ejv: Sorry, I didn't mean to sound condicending about it.  The irssi people don't want people modifying their configs manually... thats not to say that *I* don't modify mine manually though.
[20:34] <naxa> augustl, well this guide I'm reading right now suggests that one shouldn't want to use 64-bit in the first place. I disagree... and trying to read on. but I wanted to mention. :)
[20:35] <Pici> _KAMI_: You'd have to ask them about it.  Maybe #ubuntu-community-team would be a better place to ask?
[20:35] <augustl> the download page recommends 32 bit as well
[20:35] <DjDark> output "vendor: RaLink / vendor:Intel Corporation"
[20:35] <augustl> kind of silly..
[20:36] <ejv> Pici: no harm done; yea the irssi commands are terribly convoluted, and the docs never really give me what im looking for, i have to make too many inferences based on the examples they provide sometimes
[20:36] <nmvictor> augustl: what do you do when google docs is taking too long to respond and you need to present some report that stored somewhere in google.com?
[20:37] <augustl> nmvictor: haven't had that problem
[20:37] <capleton> Problem with sound in Flash videos using chromium.  It will play video just fine, but sound will only come through for a few seconds, then stop, it will only resume if I click somwhere on the seek bar.   I've tried reinstalling flash-plugin, any other ideas on how to fix it?  Could it be alsa?
[20:37] <augustl> I'm not a heavy user though
[20:38] <bilalakhtar> How to list all the running processes in the terminal?
[20:39] <_blackwater_> DjDark you mentioned this worked before, no changes in between?
[20:39] <augustl> bilalakhtar: ps aux
[20:39] <capleton> bilalakhta, did you try running 'top'
[20:39] <bilalakhtar> augustl: thanks
[20:39] <Shurakai> I'd like to connect my notebook with my television. It works but even if I switch resolution to a very low one, the TV resizes everything so I need to scroll around the desktop. I'd like to reconfigure this but I'm a little bit afraid of what might happen if I use the wrong settings (crash TV?). Should I simply look at the manual of the TV and hardcode frequency / resolution into an X11 configuration file?
[20:40] <oCean_> bilalakhtar: and use "top" to get the processes sorted by resource usage (cpu/mem)
[20:40] <augustl> is ubuntu 10.04 using xorg 1.8 btw?
[20:40] <nmvictor> i have a usb keyboard connected to my pc which is off USA keymap. The keyboard on my iBook is not USA keymapped. Is it possible to disable the iBook keyboard and use the USB one and reenable the iBook one later?
[20:40] <capleton> augustl, I like that wone
[20:40] <bilalakhtar> oCean_: ok
[20:40] <naxa> augustl, i've found another usb creators: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ and http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo I haven't tested them but they might work, as someone suggests in connection with 10.04 alpha in ubuntuforums
[20:41] <jXP3> augustl, do you want to just install 64bit ubuntu into hdd using usb stick?
[20:41] <augustl> jXP3: yes. I think
[20:41] <augustl> naxa: looking up http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ tnx
[20:42] <DjDark> right, no changes. i should point out that it just connected to the router and i was ableto bring up google.com, but then i just tried to go to speedtest.net, and also reload the router config page, and it says address not found
[20:44] <Scunizi> If I install WiCD will the package manager automatically uninstall network-manager?
[20:44] <Monotoko> Scunizi, nope
[20:44] <pepee> hi
[20:45] <Scunizi> Monotoko: interesting.. on 9.10 (on my system) it did.. ok. thanks!
[20:45] <Monotoko> Scunizi, hmmm when i tried to install it it left NM alone :/
[20:45] <SandGorgon> hmm.. when is Ubuntu getting btrfs - Fedora 13 seems to have enabled it ..
[20:46] <Scunizi> Monotoko: can they both co-exist?  I would think they would interfere with each other.
[20:46] <DjDark> lookingunder network tools, select wlan0, hit config, and it says interface does not exist......
[20:46] <BluesKaj-L> Scunizi, network-manager used to be uninstalled automatically but I think it's just disables when wicd is installed
[20:47] <BluesKaj-L> err disabled
[20:47] <|corpse|> ok so after many days of trying i can finaly get though most of the installation of server 10.04. When i get to partitions formatting it jumps to 33% and freezes. any ideas on a fix?
[20:47] <augustl> why does http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download not recommend the 64 bit version?
[20:47] <jXP3> augustl, for that i used this: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/ with modified grub menu.lst to load amd64 not x86 iso.
[20:47] <Scunizi> BluesKaj-L: Monotoko .. ok.. network-manager drives me nuts.. it won't allow me to assign a static ip that sticks through reboots and manually doing it through resolv.conf and /etc/network/interfaces get over-ridden by NM...
[20:47] <ozzloy> is there a way to modify lines in a file from command line without using a temp file?
[20:48] <dancek> ozzloy, sed -i
[20:48] <Monotoko> Scunizi, /etc/network/interfaces shouldnt be getting over-ridden :/
[20:48] <ozzloy> dancek, cool
[20:48] <dancek> ozzloy, depends a lot on what you want to do though
[20:48] <RyanP> Any idea why rhythmbox keeps muting itself if I leave it paused for more than a couple minutes?
[20:49] <DjDark> how do i add a wireless network
[20:49] <augustl> jXP3: seems like ppl don't want us to use the 64 bit version :)
[20:49] <Scunizi> Monotoko: you would think but it is....  not sure if network-manager is different on kubuntu or not but from everything that I've read just the front end gui is re-written....
[20:49] <jXP3> augustl, and btw, i'm using 64bit version without any problems :). Event win games through wine works :)
[20:49] <jXP3> even*
[20:49] <Monotoko> Scunizi, if you need to just make it run this: "ifconfig eth0 <ip>" every startup
[20:49] <augustl> jXP3: kind of sucks to have all those 32 bit libs installed, though
[20:49] <Scunizi> Monotoko: where do I put that?
[20:49] <augustl> I think I'll set up a 32 bit chroot env
[20:50] <Monotoko> Scunizi, check that it works first...if it works put it in: /etc/init.d/rc.local
[20:50] <BluesKaj-L> yes Scunizi , I pureged NM , but you can also edit /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state to disable NM
[20:50] <ozzloy> dancek, i am making a script that downloads and compiles drivers for a webcam, but i need to delete or comment out 3 lines from the file before it compiles on my system
[20:50] <Monotoko> Scunizi, if your running it manually you need sudo...if your putting it into the file do not use sudo as the command will not work if you do
[20:51] <ozzloy> dancek, so kernel updates only affect my camera for a little bit
[20:51] <dancek> ozzloy, then create a patch and apply it in the script
[20:51] <naxa> how can I auto-remove ppa's that give 404 from sources?
[20:51] <Monotoko> naxa: /etc/apt/sources.lst
[20:51] <ozzloy> dancek, ohHOho, sounds cooler
[20:51] <Scunizi> Monotoko: BluesKaj-L .. both good suggestions.. so I think I'll just purge NM and either install wicd or let "interfaces" take over.. I think that will help to maintain standards
[20:51] <naxa> Monotoko, ok :)
[20:51] <dancek> ozzloy, try http://stephenjungels.com/jungels.net/articles/diff-patch-ten-minutes.html for a tutorial
[20:52] <naxa> Monotoko, there would be nice if there would be an auto way
[20:52] <naxa> *it
[20:52] <Monotoko> naxa: sorry typo: /etc/apt/sources.list and i believe there is a way in the GUI
[20:52] <Monotoko> but im not quite sure on that one
[20:53] <ozzloy> dancek, cool
[20:53] <naxa> Monotoko, okay thanks! :)
[20:53] <yohannint> bastidrazor: i just modify one of the other files. The first one was not in use in fact -> never updated
[20:55] <DjDark> i think uuntu loaded incorrect drivers for my wireless card,labeling it as RaLink. it should be linksys wireless-g pci adapter
[20:57] <Beyecixramd> DjDark: maybe that's the chipset :)
[20:57] <rocket16> Does changing Themes affect memory consumption?
[20:57] <Theravadan> I folllowed these instructions : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto but i don't see the hardware sensors applet when I right click and choose add to panel..
[20:57] <rocket16> Because I saw that setting up Green-Tea theme makes the System faster, :)
[20:57] <DjDark> chipset is intel 865gv
[20:57] <Theravadan> ii  sensors-applet
[20:58] <DjDark> nvm you mean chipset on the wireless card

[21:03] <jXP3> visavant, don't know any cleaner method, but you can try to modify /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/*evdev.conf, commenting out Section with 'touchpad'
[21:03] <ohir> visavant: try disable it in bios
[21:04] <wad> How do I unbind a key? I need my ALT-F8 to be grabbed by a program I'm running, not by Ubuntu.
[21:04] <visavant> There's no bios entry, but for anyone else looking fora gui means to mange it, snatch up an app called gysnaptics.

[21:07] <guntbert> nmvictor: stop that please
[21:07] <vieirar> IS there anyway to lock them down to not allow ANY changes. Something like a KIOSK

[21:12] <LiohAu> i would like to learn how to add a new syscall can anybody give me some tips?
[21:12] <visavant> Anyone using the S3FS?
[21:12] <guntbert> mw44118-work: sudo aptitude update; sudo do-release-upgrade   should do it (maybe only after the first "point" release some time in june)
[21:12] <MTecknology> guntbert: do all upgrades first
[21:12] <DjDark> can i manually connect to wireless network from terminal?
[21:12] <guntbert> nmvictor: no :-)
[21:13] <guntbert> MTecknology: thx
[21:13] <nmvictor> guntbert: that was a nice suggeston, #test is perfect
[21:13] <MTecknology> DjDark: ya, using wpa-supplicant iirc
[21:13] <MTecknology> DjDark: wpa_supplicant
[21:13] <MTecknology> DjDark: i'd personally suggest wicd-curses
[21:13] <DjDark> ?
[21:13] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: It returns a successfull scan of all the networks
[21:13] <guntbert> mw44118-work: sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude safe-upgrade; sudo do-release-upgrade   should do it (maybe only after the first "point" release some time in june)
[21:13] <DjDark> < kinda new

[21:14] <Aw0L> Does anyone have any experience installing SAS?  It seems the installer will run on 32bit Ubuntu, but not 64bit - I'm not sure why
[21:14] <mw44118-work> Aw0L: HAHA I just installed SAS today
[21:15] <mw44118-work> yeah, 64bit is no bueno
[21:15] <nutron> After upgrading to 10.4, gdm no longer reads possible login users from ldap, nothing has changed as far as servers go, I can still login on the console.  How do I make gdm allow logins from users defined in ldap?  (pam is setup correctly)
[21:15] <matt1987aa_> mw4418-work: it gives me quite alot of which i'm not sure what is important
[21:15] <Aw0L> mw44118-work: aaaah...same problem with 64bit I see?
[21:15] <LiohAu> i ask again in case of somebody missed it : "i would like to learn how to add a new syscall can anybody give me some tips ?"
[21:15] <Aw0L> mw44118-work: funny thing is, it installed perfectly on CentOS 64bit
[21:15] <DjDark> ......
[21:15] <Aw0L> java maybe?
[21:16] <matt1987aa_> mw4418-work: the first part is unassociated ESSID:"....alot of characters...'
[21:16] <G8orDroid> I'm running Ubuntu in a VM and need to extend the size of the boot partition (/dev/sda1).  Can this be done?
[21:17] <DjDark> where do i go to add wireless networks
[21:17] <DjDark> or view broadcasting networks
[21:17] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: I'm not sure which part is useful, what should i be looking for?
[21:18] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: essid and encryption should match whatever access point you are trying to reach
[21:19] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: it returns 'unassociated ESSID:"g\xC6isq\xFFJ\xEC........................"
[21:20] <augustl> how large does a ubuntu boot partition need to be?
[21:21] <iceroot> augustl: 100mb maybe
[21:21] <augustl> I tried that once, it was too small actually :)
[21:21] <jXP3> augustl, mine takes up 34MB
[21:21] <[AWE]> Hello
[21:21] <iceroot> augustl: then remove unused kernels
[21:21] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: does your access point require a key, or is it open?
[21:22] <jXP3> as i understand, /boot is pretty static place :)
[21:22] <matt1987aa_> it's open
[21:22] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: sudo iwconfig ethXXX essid any
[21:22] <guntbert> augustl: what df -h /boot say?
[21:22] <mw44118-work> then try sudo dhclient eth1
[21:22] <augustl> guntbert: nothing atm, no partitions yet ;)
[21:22] <augustl> was a previous install
[21:22] <[AWE]> Could someone tell me where I can find the boot logs? I have been trying to get mod_vhost_alias working and now ubuntu won't boot properly
[21:23] <g8torz> can someone help me with mounting an external drive. I can mount the drive as a regular user however when I try to write to the disk I get cannot touch `data/ddd': Permission denied
[21:23] <guntbert> augustl: well mine is 150 MB, but only 50 MB are used
[21:23] <[AWE]> I can't see where it goes wrong as the recovery menu comes up before I can see anything
[21:23] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: it then goes on to 'DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67 interval....... a few times before returning with no DHCPOFFERS received

[21:25] <dlyneswork> matt1987aa_, either you're suffering packet loss across the network, you don't have a dhcp server on the network, your dhcp server requires a mac address (and your mac address isn't one that's allowed), ...
[21:25] <Viren> hi
[21:25] <naxa> bye
[21:25] <gescape> I wonder if anyone updated from f12 to 13 and experienced any issues?
[21:26] <guntbert> gescape: about what are you talking?
[21:26] <jXP3> g8torz, try mounting with -o umask=0000,rw
[21:26] <Viren> i would like to ask for help with my ubuntu installation
[21:26] <dlyneswork> gescape, f12?  13?  are those secret codes?
[21:26] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: I am connected to the network using DHCP on another computer now, and I get the same responces on other networks and using a USB wireless adapter
[21:26] <g8torz> jXP3: in fstab?
[21:26] <xangua> gescape: this is #ubuntu. not #fedora, keep in the topic please ;)
[21:26] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: so, if iwlist eth1 scan shows you some wireless access points, but when you ask them for a DHCP address, and they say no, then the problem is at the access point.  Maybe it is doing mac address filtering.  Is this your home router?
[21:26] <gescape> oh... sorry :(
[21:26] <jXP3> g8torz, yes
[21:26] <Viren> my network wont autoconnect
[21:26] <gescape> wrong tab :)
[21:27] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: I don't understand you.  Can you rephrase that?
[21:27] <[AWE]> nope can't find it
[21:27] <[AWE]> anyone know how to remove mod_vhost_alias
[21:27] <[AWE]> ?
[21:27] <g8torz> jXP3: I'll do that
[21:27] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: I am connected to the router on another computer to use the internet
[21:27] <dlyneswork> [AWE], find / -type f -name mod_vhost_alias.so -exec 'rm' '{}' ';'
[21:28] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: and I get the same No DHCOFFERS message trying to connect to other open networks on the ubuntu system
[21:28] <jXP3> g8torz, just in fstab it's without '-o' and under <options> column :)
[21:28] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: is it possible that the router has MAC address filtering?
[21:28] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: I also receive the same message if I try to connect using a wireless adapter on wlan0 or the card on eth1
[21:28] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: Can you paste into pastie.org the results of sudo iwconfig eth1 and sudo iwlist eth1?
[21:29] <matt1987aa_> sure
[21:29] <guntbert> [AWE]: but to remove some file is not the best thing you could do -- take care
[21:29] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: thanks for your help. The router definately isn't using MAC address filtering
[21:30] <Viren> anyone who wants to help me pls query me
[21:30] <[AWE]> guntbert: well I'm stuck
[21:30] <guntbert> !pm | Viren
[21:30] <g8torz> jXP3: just tried it with the following option noauto,user,defaults,rw,umask=0000 but I get Unrecognized mount option "umask=0000" or missing value when I run dmesg
[21:30] <mw44118-work> Viren: what is your problem
[21:30] <diogo_79> hi is there any alternative to gopenvpn for ubuntu??????
[21:30] <[AWE]> guntbert: I can't even access the damn thing with ssh anymore
[21:30] <mw44118-work> diogo_79: I like openvpn
[21:30] <diogo_79> not openvpn but the gui gopenvpn
[21:31] <[AWE]> guntbert: all I know is that it was working fine before mod_vhost_alias
[21:31] <Viren> kay, I am new with ubuntu and i just installed it on my laptop
[21:31] <guntbert> [AWE]: is it a remote machine? what happened?
[21:31] <Viren> I have no working network
[21:31] <mw44118-work> Viren: linux doesn't support networking
[21:31] <mw44118-work> it's basically like DOCS
[21:31] <jXP3> g8torz, what's the filesystem type of external harddrive?
[21:31] <guntbert> [AWE]: are you talking about an apache module?
[21:32] <blue_anna> can I install the meerkat version of ruby1.9.1 in place of the lucid one?
[21:32] <diogo_79> i am having some trouble with the push route command
[21:32] <guntbert> mw44118-work: stay helpful please - no place for irony here
[21:32] <brunner> Hmm.. so one of my boxes got rooted.  There must be an ntpd exploit out there, or something?
[21:32] <[AWE]> guntbert: it's a VM running in MacOSX
[21:32] <g8torz> jXP3: I partitioned it with 3 partition 2 ext4 and one HPFS/NTFS
[21:32] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: you gotta give me the pastie.org URL
[21:32] <[AWE]> guntbert: yes I'm talking about the apache2 module
[21:32] <Viren> -.- I ment I the network manager shows my ethernet, but it can't connect to my fritzbox
[21:32] <diogo_79> in the server side i have something like this push "route<IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>"
[21:32] <[AWE]> guntbert: and like an idiot I didn't backup the VM before poking around
[21:33] <diogo_79> but the client side when try to establish connection gives me the route <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>"
[21:33] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: http://pastie.org/978781
[21:33] <guntbert> [AWE]: ah - thats something completey different -- apache logs are in /var/log/apache2
[21:33] <brunner> http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/35017
[21:34] <sumanah> is there a GUI way to change my Ubuntu computer's hostname?
[21:34] <g8torz> jXP3:  the one I'm trying to mount(as a non root user) is ext4
[21:34] <[AWE]> guntbert: yeah I know but the failure is at boot
[21:35] <guntbert> [AWE]: my crystal ball says: not related :-)  -- serious: apache modules are loaded at a stage where the basic boot process is long finished
[21:35] <jXP3> g8torz, hm, can't see similar options for ext4 in manual :/
[21:35] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: reading it now
[21:36] <[AWE]> yeah I just restarted apache and it seems fine
[21:36] <[AWE]> so I'm stuck
[21:36] <[AWE]> no idea what's going on
[21:36] <g8torz> jXP3: I'll try reformatting it as ext3
[21:36] <chegney> okay, gmount my google documents rocks!!
[21:36] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: what router do you want to connect to?
[21:36] <Vindy> sumanah: Tried sudo apt-get install gnome-network-admin yet?
[21:37] <chegney> use open office to edit documents on google documents = WIN
[21:37] <sumanah> Vindy, no, I hadn't come across that.  Thanks, I'll try that
[21:37] <Viren> mw44118-work: the networkmanager says:   Auto eth0   -> last used:never
[21:37] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: BTOpenzone for the meantime
[21:38] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: while I'm reading, you should read this http://blog.tplus1.com/index.php/2008/06/13/how-to-connect-to-a-wireless-network-from-the-ubuntu-command-line/
[21:38] <mw44118-work> I wrote that a while back.
[21:39] <flexo_> hm. general question... should i rather file upstream bug reports or in launchpad?
[21:39] <guntbert> !bug | flexo_
[21:39] <undecim> bash question: I know you can use \ and a newline character to have a single command with lots of arguments span several lines in a script. If I command out one of those lines, how does the command get executed?
[21:40] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: can you paste in the results of just "sudo iwconfig"
[21:40] <undecim> comment out one of those*
[21:40] <flexo_> guntbert: that's not really an answer
[21:40] <matt1987aa_> ok
[21:40] <flexo_> i know how to file bugs at launchpad
[21:40] <flexo_> the question is whether i should do it, or go upstream
[21:40] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: http://pastie.org/978798
[21:41] <flexo_> launchpad could say "not our problem, file an upstream report" and upstream could say "dont care, distro applies patches, we dont support it" (i dont even know if it's really an upstream issue)
[21:41] <guntbert> flexo_: like the text from ubottu said: please file bugs at launchpad  (shortened) :-)
[21:41] <flexo_> okay. thanks :)
[21:42] <flexo_> guntbert: could be clarified though - whether or not launch pad is prefered over upstream is a different thing than launchpad being preferred over mailing some ubuntu guy
[21:42] <Viren> anyone?
[21:42] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: try this sudo iwconfig eth1 essid BTOpenZone
[21:42] <Viren> it should be a real simple problem
[21:42] <mw44118-work> then sudo dhclient eth1
[21:44] <vithos> i have a very laggy mouse which leaves copies of its image everywhere it moves, widget painting problems, etc. in ubuntu 10.04, but if i boot runlevel 3 and use low graphics mode the whole gnome desktop works fine
[21:44] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: same responce
[21:44] <guntbert> flexo_: if upstream is not mentioned we just use launchpad -- there are repackagers/package maintainers to decide if the report should be elevated
[21:44] <undecim> vithos: Do you have your video driver enabled?
[21:44] <flexo_> guntbert: yea, i got that. maybe it should be clarified on that wiki page.. it doesn't really say
[21:45] <vithos> undecim: there doesn't seem to be a proprietary driver choice. it's an old p-ii box
[21:45] <pedahzur> Having a problem with PHPUnit on Ubuntu 9.04. No useful replies from the PHPUnit list so far, nor from ##php or #phpunit.  If anyone has any ideas: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.php.phpunit.user/1523
[21:45] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: now what does sudo iwconfig say?
[21:46] <_UsUrPeR_> hey all
[21:46] <_UsUrPeR_> I'm looking for the equivalent sun-java6-plugin for 10.04
[21:46] <_UsUrPeR_> what is it called?
[21:46] <_UsUrPeR_> I tried icedtea but that didn't work so well...
[21:46] <guntbert> flexo_: about what wiki page are you talking? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs ?
[21:47] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: what does sudo ifconfig say?
[21:47] <undecim> _UsUrPeR_: aptitude shows sun-java6-plugin available for me in 10.04
[21:47] <mbrigdan> Anyone here familiar with Miro?
[21:47] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: http://pastie.org/978817

[21:48] <undecim> _UsUrPeR_:  http://pastebin.com/Q26GaDjW

[21:50] <DjDark> woot
[21:51] <DjDark> anyone have a problem streaming media?
[21:51] <helo> DjDark: i hate it big time
[21:52] <DjDark> i'm trying to tune in to my internet radio but no good
[21:52] <al1as> hey huys
[21:53] <al1as> guys**
[21:53] <sumanah> Vindy, "host" in the "general" tab in the gnome-network-admin dialog is blank.  I put in my preferred hostname, but as soon as I close network-admin, the field returns to being blank (as I see when I re-start it) and my hostname hasn't changed
[21:53] <al1as> I need some help with my TV Tuner please.
[21:53] <helo> al1as: what have you tried, and what was the result?
[21:53] <smellynosery> How can I change file associations so Okular will open PDF files instead of evince?
[21:54] <sumanah> I click "yes, change hostname" when I tab away from Hostname & get the "This will prevent you from launching new applications, and so you will have to log in again. Continue anyway?" msg
[21:54] <Psy-T> Hello, I'm a new linux user. Just installed Ubuntu some 30 minutes ago. Trying to get my firewire audio interface to play along with it. Can anyone give me a hand?
[21:54] <al1as> helo: I tryed. No results. I just wanna know if there is any way to turn it on :-)
[21:55] <sumanah> al1as, you should be more specific
[21:55] <al1as> (WinFast PalmTop TV) USB
[21:55] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: man, I'm really sorry, but we've tried everything I know how to do.  What version of ubuntu and do you have X running?
[21:55] <sumanah> smellynosery, System - Preferences - Preferred Apps?
[21:55] <Psy-T> someone elsewhere directed me to this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FireWire but it applies to Ubuntu Studio rather than Ubuntu.
[21:55] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: 10.04
[21:56] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: thanks alot for your help, really don't know where to go with this
[21:56] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: can you start graphical programs, like network-manager?
[21:56] <DjDark> ubuntu media center any good?
[21:56] <al1as> my dmesg.. (tv tuner problem) http://pastebin.com/7g0tFahQ
[21:56] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: you'll get there
[21:56] <augustl> anyone know when Ubuntu will get rid of hal and upgrade to xorg 1.8?
[21:56] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: yes
[21:57] <mw44118-work> try running the various network programs
[21:57] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: one more thing: try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[21:57] <undecim> What's the easiest way to put a Y/N question in a bash script?
[21:57] <mw44118-work> undecim: command-line arg
[21:59] <al1as> sumanah: please take a look on my dmesg. it looks like kernel does not recognize  a tv tuner at all. but I can see it in lsusb.
[21:59] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: I get a warning: 'ifup -a is disabled in favour of networkmanager..... Set ifupdown:managed=false in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
[21:59] <DjDark> nice id. windows does need to be smashed :D
[21:59] <GSF1200S> augustl: prolly by meerkat, but then many apps still rely on hal
[21:59] <FunnyLookinHat> Ok - This may sound dumb - but "mail" doesn't seem to be installed in my system after I installed postfix...  What package installs that?
[21:59] <sumanah> al1as, I don't know enough to help with your problem, sorry
[21:59] <DjDark> goofy lookin smilie
[21:59] <WindowSmasher> Hello all. I'm trying to install likewise-open and I'm having trouble joining it to my domain. Any advice is appreciated
[21:59] <augustl> GSF1200S: I see, tnx
[21:59] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: ok, run sudo networkmanager
[21:59] <al1as> sumanah: thank you anyway.
[21:59] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: that might be a graphical app
[22:00] <Etherael> Hi guys, anyone know what the incantation is to make Rhythmbox gnome-do plugin work nice on a Lucid Lynx install? Symptom is that all the commands show up, but the only one that actually works is mute.
[22:00] <GSF1200S> 1.8 will prolly be meerkat for sure- im on 1.8 in Arch right now (testing branch). But hal is a different story. Ubuntu will work without hal, but a lot of apps wont. XFCE for example needs hal
[22:00] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: sudo networkmanager return 'command not found'
[22:00] <GSF1200S> augustl, ^
[22:00] <mw44118-work> try netw[TAB]
[22:00] <augustl> GSF1200S: been using 1.8 on arch for some time as well
[22:01] <al1as> Any one have knowladge in tvtuner's?
[22:01] <Loshki> FunnyLookinHat: try something like: apt-get install mailx mailutils
[22:01] <augustl> doesn't seem like 1.7 wants to support multitouch on my touchpad *cry*
[22:01] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.stat
[22:01] <GSF1200S> augustl, people complain its unstable, but i havent had a more stable version of Xorg personally- havent had an issue yet
[22:01] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[22:01] <augustl> GSF1200S: same :)
[22:02] <Loshki> al1as: the #mythtv-users are experts in tv stuff...
[22:02] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, are you running NM or ?
[22:02] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: that also gives me command not found
[22:02] <FunnyLookinHat> Loshki: Ahh - mailx = mail ?
[22:03] <Kim83> could someone help me file a bug report? i'm not sure how to do that if the bug is in the distribution upgrade process
[22:03] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: yes I'm running NM
[22:03] <mw44118-work> matt1987aa_: sorry, gotta go for the day.  good luck!  Don't give up!
[22:03] <Loshki> FunnyLookinHat: usually i.e. it's a cli mail client...
[22:03] <matt1987aa_> mw44118-work: thanks again!
[22:03] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, it's afile you have to edit , alt+f2 , gksudo gedit /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[22:04] <tripps> My gateway laptop uses a broadcom wifi card which requires proprietary drivers. I installed lucid but it doesn't appear it includes these drivers like prior versions (used to run feisty through jackalope on same laptop). What is the best way to get/install these drivers?
[22:04] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: ok what am I looking for?
[22:05] <Kim83> re...
[22:07] <Kim83> could someone help me file a bug report? i'm not sure how to do that if the bug is in the distribution upgrade process
[22:07] <matt1987aa_> I am unable to connect to the internet. dhclient gives me 'No DHCPOFFERS.'
[22:07] <Psy-T> I'm trying to run UbuntuStudioControls, but it says I need administrator privlidges to run it.
[22:07] <iceroot> Psy-T: run it with gksudo
[22:07] <iceroot> Psy-T: if it is a gui-app, else use sudo
[22:07] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, change ifupdown:managed=false to true
[22:08] <Psy-T> iceroot,  so a terminal, yes?
[22:08] <augustl> where's /etc/X11/xorg.conf in 10.04?
[22:08] <iceroot> augustl: there is no xorg
[22:08] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: all I am getting in NetworkManager.state is: '[main] NetworkEnabled=true WirelessEnabled=true WWANEnabled=true
[22:09] <augustl> iceberg: say what?
[22:09] <iceroot> augustl: i said there is no xorg.conf
[22:09] <augustl> iceberg: oh, but there is xorg? =P
[22:10] <al1as> Loshki: thanks
[22:10] <Kim83> seriously? can nobody tell me how to report that bug??
[22:10] <iceroot> augustl: which is no longer using xorg.conf by default but you can create that file
[22:10] <al1as> Loshki: btw, cool nick lol
[22:10] <augustl> iceroot: what's the prefered way?
[22:10] <iceroot> augustl: to create one?
[22:10] <Loshki> al1as: :-)
[22:10] <Psy-T> iceroot: it asked for my password, I gave it, but then nothing happened.
[22:10] <augustl> iceberg: to configure x
[22:10] <iceroot> augustl: try to use the correct nick
[22:10] <augustl> iceroot: hehe sorry
[22:11] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, alt+f2 , type network-manager
[22:11] <iceroot> augustl: dont know what 10,04 is using but i know there is no xorg.conf by default but you can create it and xorg is using it
[22:11] <BluesKaj-L> augustl, http://ubuntulinux.co.in/blog/ubuntu/ubuntu-9-10/xorg-conf-file-create-on-ubuntu-9-10/
[22:12] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: command not found
[22:12] <Loshki> Kim83: see if this helps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[22:13] <iandan> Hi, I have an encrypted private key which I am using on a Ubuntu server machine to connect to other machines. Can I do something to not ask me for the key passphrase every time?
[22:13] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: could not open location
[22:13] <badnaam> folks - any ideas how to troubleshoot flash full screen errors?
[22:13] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, alt +f2 should bring up the krunner/run command dialog box , type it there
[22:13] <Loshki> iandan: are you talking about ssh? If so, ssh-add might be what you need...
[22:14] <acemo> how do i reset my xorg settings to use mesa? after installing fglrx in the live cd it tries to use fglrx on the installed system aswell but this isn't installed
[22:14] <iandan> Loshki, yes, ssh. When I try to run ssh-add I get "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent."
[22:15] <Loshki> iandan: are you also running gnome?
[22:15] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, type network manager , there's no -
[22:15] <nemo> Has anyone here, by any chance, tried Jacob Zimmermann's evolution-mapi package?
[22:15] <iandan> Loshki, not on the server
[22:15] <nemo> or, for that matter, does he hang out on IRC?
[22:15] <onetinsoldier> acemo: is there a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file on the installed system? if so, remove it
[22:15] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: still getting could not open location
[22:16] <nemo> have an undefined symbol error, and I'm trying to figure out what might be providing it - I'm assuming some dep that is not automatic
[22:16] <SimoneB> why the ubuntu one music store doesn't have popular bands like nirvana, or king crimson?
[22:16] <iandan> Loshki, I have the home directory encrypted on the server... Maybe this gives you a clue
[22:16] <tripps> I've installed the b43-fwcutter package from the live cd, but the install scripts require it to fetch files from the internet. how do I solve this chicken/egg problem? I don't have connectivity until I can install it.
[22:16] <Loshki> iandan: shouldn't matter. On the client, gnome normally runs an ssh-agent and ssh-add talks to that ssh-agent, except of course, in your case, it doesn't appear to be working...
[22:16] <acemo> onetinsoldier: removed it, rebooting now
[22:16] <onetinsoldier> acemo: roger that
[22:16] <[q_p]> hi i get my huawei mobile to have connection bat it he give me ip for ppp0 bat i can not navigate or do anything !!!! http://pastebin.com/6WrpJebq
[22:17] <[q_p]> and this is my ifconfig http://pastebin.com/RDmVUXtC
[22:17] <BluesKaj-L> matt1987aa_, open synaptic search for network manager
[22:17] <acemo> onetinsoldier: and we have a gui :) thanks!
[22:17] <iandan> Loshki, this is the workflow: from my laptop (Gnome) I am connecting to a server and from the server I need to connect to another machine
[22:18] <onetinsoldier> acemo: :-) you're welcome
[22:18] <BluesKaj-L> gotta go ...stuff to do
[22:18] <nemo> n/m - this was all my fault :)
[22:18] <iandan> Loshki, LAPTOP > SERVER1 > SERVER2; I will use sshfs to mount a directory from SERVER2 on SERVER1
[22:19] <acemo> onetinsoldier: now lets hope i manage to get fglrx running with my 5730 mobility or i get to find out why windows 7 ain't working anymore :)
[22:19] <matt1987aa_> BluesKaj-L: found it
[22:19] <sumanah> SimoneB, licensing those is probably hard
[22:20] <onetinsoldier> acemo: O-0 roger. good luck
[22:21] <Loshki> iandan: Hmm. I'm not sure if there's a way to make it work without entering the passphrases. Even if there were no encryption involved. Maybe someone else will know. You can repeat your question every 15 minutes or so until someone responds (or you get tired of asking)...
[22:21] <JesusFreak> Hello where can I download wubi 9.10?
[22:21] <[q_p]> hi i get my huawei mobile to have connection bat it he give me ip for ppp0 bat i can not navigate or do anything !!!! http://pastebin.com/6WrpJebq
[22:21] <[q_p]> and this is my ifconfig http://pastebin.com/RDmVUXtC
[22:21] <iandan> Loshki, :) Thank you. I will try to repeat the question.
[22:22] <iandan> Loshki, What I'm trying to achieve is to login to SERVER2 from SERVER1 without needing to manually enter a password. Do you know if this is possible?
[22:23] <khunter619> I have Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Remix; When I go to Firefox, I want to hide, the File - Edit - View... toolbar/menu; The only options when I right click near there are: "Navigation Toolbar" & "Bookmarks Toolbar". There are 3 options in Windows Firefox, the missing one being to be able to hide the file menu toolbar
[22:23] <message144> Hi, I trying to upgrade from 8.04 LTS server to 10.04 LTS server using the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades . When I run "sudo do-release-upgrade --proposed" it says "current dist not found in meta-release file. No new release found". Any ideas?
[22:23] <khunter619> *I mean: The missing one is in Ubuntu
[22:23] <Ganymede> i'm trying to get a dual-monitor setup on my ATI HD3200 card...left monitor is 1280X800, right monitor is 1440x900...when i use gnome-display-settings or something to set it up, it modifies my xorg.conf and now, the left monitor has 100 pixels of space underneath in an area that can never be visible...it causes my mouse to get lost, also makes it hard to bring up the auto-hide panel at the bottom of my screen...is there any way i can get rid of
[22:23] <Ganymede> it so my mouse stops at the bottom of the left edge of the screen instead of going under?
[22:23] <matt1987aa> BluesKaj-L: sorry got disconnected
[22:23] <crogeek> I have one question, does someone have bad ping on quakelive under Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[22:24] <crogeek> with ATI card
[22:24] <matt1987aa> BluesKaj-L: I found network manager in synaptic, what now?
[22:24] <crogeek> bad FPS*
[22:24] <Odd-rationale> khunter619: search firefox extnersion for "hide menu bar"
[22:24] <crogeek> I am getting very low FPS on 10.04 :(
[22:24] <acemo> onetinsoldier: installation worked.. now lets see if it will actually work after i reboot :)
[22:24] <Odd-rationale> *extensions
[22:24] <[q_p]> jejejejej
[22:24] <sharperguy> Hey. I'm trying to stream vlc over http. When I try to stream to any other address than localhost, I get no suitable sout access module for `http/ts://<IP_ADDRESS>:9091'. Anybody know what that even means?
[22:24] <onetinsoldier> acemo: cheers. hope it works
[22:24] <[q_p]> hehehhe
[22:25] <Ganymede> sharperguy, does it really say http/ts:// because that might be the problem...
[22:25] <acemo> onetinsoldier: same here, i really miss linux after being forced with windows for a month tnx to new laptop...
[22:25] <sharperguy> Ganymede, yeah I was confused by that as well
[22:25] <crogeek> and I am having problems with installation of ATI drivers
[22:25] <crogeek> Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version
[22:25] <crogeek> what does that mean anyway'
[22:25] <crogeek> ?
[22:25] <simps> Hi all, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I'm connecting to my Ubuntu via remote desktop from my Windows. I was wondering if it was possible to hear the sounds from my Ubuntu as well as remotely see the screen. Right now, I just see the screen. Thanks in advance!
[22:25] <DjDark> anyone have a variant of sam broadcaster?
[22:26] <Loshki> iandan: the usual way to do that is to store the passphrase in ssh-agent on SERVER1 via ssh-add, so that ssh can read it on SERVER1. But that's intended for interactive use on a console. Not sure how to make it work in your case though...
[22:26] <khunter619> Odd-rationale: hiding menu bar is default in windows firefox (in fresh install of Firefox 3.6.3); is this in all Linux editions of Firefox (not being able to hide the menu bar)?
[22:26] <bassliner> why exactly does the ubuntu.com website not recommend the 64bit version for daily desktop usage?
[22:27] <[q_p]> hi i get my huawei mobile to have connection bat it he give me ip for ppp0 bat i can not navigate or do anything !!!! http://pastebin.com/6WrpJebq
[22:27] <[q_p]> and this is my ifconfig http://pastebin.com/RDmVUXtC
[22:27] <Odd-rationale> khunter619: i believe so. I have not used windows in while...
[22:28] <Odd-rationale> simps: are you using rdp?
[22:29] <delac> does lucid have any  alsamixer panel apps?
[22:29] <acemo> whats a good fps in glxgears for a new graphics card?
[22:29] <matt1987aa> i have just installed ubuntu 10.04 but I cannot connect to networks shown in network manager OR through the terminal
[22:29] <Slart> acemo: glxgears is not a benchmark.. they are not kidding when they say that
[22:30] <khunter619> bassliner: because many softwares are not 64 bit compatible
[22:30] <antivirtel> is there any alternative sofrware of windows' notepad++(npp)? i havent seen yet a very good charset manager text editor :S
[22:30] <acemo> Slart: your right, i should just try some openGL game and see if it runs :)
[22:31] <khunter619> antivirtel: gedit
[22:31] <blue_anna> antivirtel: what is a charset manager editor?
[22:31] <j800r> antivirtel, gedit on gnome
[22:31] <Slart> khunter619: "many"? I'm having problems naming 5 apps that don't work.. what have I missed?
[22:31] <j800r> kate on kde
[22:31] <tripps> How do I find out what version of ubuntu I'm running? My "about ubuntu" simply says, "ubuntu - the - released in -"
[22:31] <Slart> acemo: I think basically anything over 1000 for hardware accelerated graphics
[22:31] <Odd-rationale> tripps: lsb_release -a
[22:31] <blue_anna> antivirtel: if you like vi, you might try gvim -- gedit with ruby ibus is nice too
[22:31] <antivirtel> khunter619, j800r: gedit not displays charset.. in npp i can change or convert
[22:31] <tripps> Odd-rationale, thanks
[22:32] <acemo> Slart: i'm getting 28-30k now
[22:32] <matt1987aa> can someone help with my netowrking problem? I cannot connect to networks in network manager or the terminal
[22:32] <antivirtel> blue_anna what is vi?
[22:32] <Slart> acemo: well.. at least your graphics is accelerated =)
[22:32] <blue_anna> antivirtel: nevermind vi -- gedit shows the charset on the save window
[22:32] <antivirtel> hmm
[22:33] <matt1987aa> instead I received No DHCPOFFERS
[22:33] <khunter619> Slart: I made same assumption for Linux softwares being 64 bit compatible based on the requirement for Windows apps needing 2 different versions for - one for 32 bit editions & other for 64 bit editions
[22:33] <merischino> hello?
[22:33] <antivirtel> but converting? seeng..I have eggdrop problems... I think charset
[22:33] <blue_anna> how do you get gedit to tab to indent/shift-tab to unindent blocks of text?
[22:33] <bassliner> khunter619: what software in particular?
[22:33] <merischino> Ok. good. it's finally letting me talk. I just installed ubuntu 10.4 alongside my windows installation
[22:33] <acemo> Slart: seems like it, but i'm not getting the fancy stuff in my kde yet.. i'll try tux racing first n if that works see what i can do to get my konsole to go transparant partly
[22:33] <merischino> now of course i can't get to my windows installation.
[22:33] <antivirtel> I 'll try kate at first :D
[22:33] <Slart> acemo: sounds like a plan
[22:33] <bassliner> khunter619: i run fedora 64bit on a notebook without complaints whatsoever but i think they kindof mix 32 and 64bit in the 64bit branch...
[22:34] <khunter619> bassliner: did you run 64 bit edition of windows?
[22:34] <Slart> khunter619: I think linux is way ahead on the move to 64bit.. I've only run into some proprietary security related firefox plugin that wasn't available for 64bit.. everything else seems to be ok
[22:34] <joshuah> merischino: what errors are you getting? are you using grub? what version of windows do you have?
[22:34] <bassliner> khunter619: no.
[22:35] <DJ_HaMsTa> How can i get my ubuntu desktop looking like this ? http://lh3.ggpht.com/_89u_lEORvd8/S96PTVV31_I/AAAAAAAAPZM/Wg-GLIb--rU/Screenshot.jpg
[22:35] <DJ_HaMsTa> thanks
[22:35] <sharperguy> Nobody knows about vlc sout access modules then?
[22:35] <bassliner> khunter619: running 32 bit applications on 64bit cpu's is usually just a library problem anyways, or am i mistaken?
[22:35] <Slart> DJ_HaMsTa: it looks like the cairo dock.. and chromium.. the browser
[22:35] <j800r> DJ_HaMsTa, install docky from the repos
[22:36] <blue_anna> DJ_HaMsTa: 10.10?
[22:36] <onetinsoldier> bassliner: if you install 64-bit version of Ubuntu, then install the ia32-libs, you'll probably have what you're looking for
[22:36] <DjDark> anyone use IDJC?
[22:36] <DJ_HaMsTa> 10.4
[22:36] <DJ_HaMsTa> installing docky atm
[22:36] <blue_anna> I actually prefer a windows list at the bottom to a bouncy bar .. having been on mac for so long :)
[22:37] <j800r> bouncy bar?
[22:37] <merischino> joshuah: running windows xp home sp3. not getting any errors at all. just won't boot past choosing windows
[22:37] <bassliner> onetinsoldier: are most ppl not doing that for a good reason? i mean is there one to really not go that way?
[22:37] <merischino> no idea if i am using grub.
[22:37] <j800r> it's a Dock
[22:37] <j800r> lol
[22:37] <crogeek> why QuakeLive has LOW FPS on 10.04 ?
[22:37] <DJ_HaMsTa> ohhh docky works flawless
[22:37] <DJ_HaMsTa> beautiful
[22:37] <joshuah> merischino: ok, so you select windows from the menu and it's just a black screen?
[22:37] <j800r> DJ_HaMsTa, i know it does. i use it ;)
[22:38] <merischino> joshuah, yes. i select windows, and it goes to a black screen with underlined cursor paused at the top left.
[22:38] <ocatacoo> gnome panel notification area --- where do people file bugs and find fixes
[22:38] <crogeek> why QuakeLive has LOW FPS on 10.04 ?
[22:38] <Slart> ocatacoo: about the broken transparency?
[22:38] <merischino> installation was from free ubuntu 9.10 disk, with live download/install of upgrade to lynx
[22:39] <acemo> 240fps, great openGL is working.. just no sound
[22:39] <tripps> what are the repo URLs to manually wget packages for lucid lynx?
[22:39] <ocatacoo> no it seems to have puked
[22:39] <onetinsoldier> bassliner: i don't know of any reason not too. perhaps that other fellow knows of something that doesn't work with it. device drivers are about the only thing i know that don't work under the 32-bit libs/environment, but there's probably an app or two that doesn't somewhere
[22:39] <Slart> !bug | ocatacoo
[22:39] <LjL> tripps: you can pick the mirrors you like from http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[22:40] <bassliner> onetinsoldier: i should just give it a try i think
[22:40] <ocatacoo> it dont show network or volume and shows the accessibility when I have never used it
[22:40] <j800r> tripps, everything you'd need is in the repos anyway pretty much :\
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> bassliner: i would if i were you ;-)
[22:40] <j800r> i'd recommend adding the medibuntu repos as well though
[22:40] <khunter619> onetinsoldier: mine was assumption based on Win 64 bit not linux
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> khunter619: ok
[22:40] <joshuah> merischino: do you have your xp install disc? usually you can fix the windows bootloader with that, and then use an ubuntu livecd to fix the bootloader you have now (grub).  I have to go now, but will be back in  a bit, check here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or search the web for "repair grub ubuntu"
[22:41] <tripps> LjL, k thx
[22:41] <DJ_HaMsTa> Now i have Docky and the bottom ubuntu window, should i get rid of that by removing it ?
[22:41] <acemo> ohh that was easy, the PCM slider was all the way down as default
[22:41] <merischino> joshuah: no. this is a an old former work computer my ex was given, free, stripped of everything, when the company closed.
[22:41] <merischino> no install disks, no support of any kind.
[22:41] <blue_anna> how can I upgrade to the meerkat test packages?
[22:41] <CyL> Hi, I'm having a hard time installing my Broadcom Corporation BCM4312. Any help please?
[22:42] <DjDark> need help installing IDJC...
[22:42] <blue_anna> everyone's a dj...
[22:42] <khunter619> Does Rosetta Stone work on Ubuntu/linux?
[22:42] <joshuah> merischino: check that link, there may be a way to do it from inside ubuntu, otherwise search for the recovery discs online.  I know neosmart has some for win7/vista
[22:42] <LiohAu> i'm using this line (found in a HOWTO) "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd –-append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers", isn't there a parameter to improve compilation time ? like using X cores?
[22:43] <joshuah> g2g though... back later, GL!
[22:43] <ftn> hey there. I'm using lucid and from time to time my wifi connection drops. I can see some "ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting." on dmesg. Do you know what can be done? please
[22:43] <merischino> joshuah, i will try but i have no clue really what i'm looking for.
[22:43] <simps> Odd-rationale, sorry for the late response. I'm using uh, the default Remote Desktop under System -> Preferences. I believe that's Vino?
[22:43] <acemo> ok now to find my hamster somewhere in my bed...
[22:44] <merischino> (don't even know what grub is/does)
[22:44] <CyL> Would someone please help me setting up Broadcom Corporation BCM4312? I have already tried enabling the restricted drivers without success.
[22:45] <ocatacoo> Slart: do they have issues with icons not working ????
[22:45] <DJ_HaMsTa> Cyl, google Broadcom BCM4312 ubuntu driver. and it will be the first search result
[22:46] <Loshki> khunter619: certain versions of Rosetta Stone do, under certain versions of wine, per http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10043
[22:46] <Slart> ocatacoo: not that I know of.. but there is a problem with transparency for some icons
[22:46] <sebsebseb> CyL: already done this?
[22:47] <sebsebseb> !broadcom | CyL
[22:47] <Acorn> I've just installed ubuntu and I can't log into any google services. How can I troubleshoot?
[22:47] <ocatacoo> thats what I was refering to man of the icons use png w transparancies
[22:47] <merischino> can someone tell me what the acceptable command is for finding who is a staff person online?
[22:47] <merischino> (want to free up my decades old irc account)
[22:47] <sebsebseb> merischino: The Freenode staff hang out in #freenode as well as network helpers
[22:48] <merischino> thank you. couldn't figure out why my command kept erroring out as unavailable.
[22:48] <hou5ton> I would really like to solve this problem ... been messing with it for a long time .... I am running 10.04 on a laptop ... have downloaded every codec, etc. I know to get, but it still won't play embedded media.  For example, I love to watch documentaries ... so if I go here, http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/independent-media-in-a-time-of-war/ ... it will not play that media ... but if I go to it on YouTube, it plays it just fine.
[22:48] <CyL> sebsebseb: Yes.. I did the procedure outlined in the bot link... it looks like the hardware is detected, but it never finds a network...
[22:48] <sebsebseb> merischino: you have an account from decades ago? How long has Freenode been around?
[22:48] <sebsebseb> CyL: yeah Ubuntu and wireless, common issue, but they aren't all the same tiher
[22:49] <|corpse|> Hi, im having trouble installing server 10.04. i can cruz right though the hole install process until i get to the file partition part. I can select my partition i want to use (i have tried several drives now) and every time it will just straight to 33% and freeze up
[22:49] <sebsebseb> CyL: right so, you could try Ndiswrapper next,  which lets people use Windows drivers,  and if no luck with that,  you could try another distro,  and I know of two where your wireless might just work
[22:49] <CyL> sebsebseb: interestingly some users report it works for them, when they're using the same hardware as me
[22:49] <sebsebseb> CyL: well then I guess your doing it wrong
[22:50] <khunter619> Loshki: thanks will take a look
[22:50] <CyL> sebsebseb: maybe that's the case... but I have no experience with this... maybe if you could just guide me trough...
[22:51] <sebsebseb> |corpse| #ubuntu-server
[22:51] <simps> Hi all, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I'm connecting to my Ubuntu via remote desktop from my Windows. I was wondering if it was possible to hear the sounds from my Ubuntu as well as remotely see the screen. Right now, I just see the screen. Thanks in advance!
[22:51] <|corpse|> sebsebseb: yeah, havnt gotten a response there, it does the same with desktop ver.
[22:52] <sebsebseb> CyL: I have no experience either, however I know a bit when it comes to wireless.  Last time I tried to get a wireless device working was in 2004, with Fedora Core 2,  using my first Linux distro.  This  was also a bit before Ubuntu even existed.  I didn't know what to do with Ndiswrapper at the time so gave up soon after.
[22:53] <DjDark> trying to install idjc and get this: E: Couldn't find package libmp3lame-dev
[22:53] <CyL> sebsebseb: I like to avoid using ndiwrapper if possible... I prefer the native driver...
[22:53] <sebsebseb> CyL: anyway 1.  try and get it working natively which you were doing.  2.  try Nidswrapper with a Windows driver.  3.  still not working try another distro
[22:54] <cjdevlin> |corpse| where did you get the install media?
[22:54] <khunter619> I have ISO file for Win XP pro which I downloaded from MSDN. I want to dual boot Ubuntu + XP. I am currently on Ubuntu. I need an application that will make the Win XP setup into USB boot disk; plus any suggestion in advance so I don't break Grub;

[22:54] <|corpse|> cjdevlin: ubuntu.com. i have reinstalled several versions from several differnt iso downloads
[22:55] <Loshki> |corpse|: can you bring up the live cd with the desktop version? If so, I would use that to take a good look at the disk...
[22:55] <navatwo> I0~have0~tried0~finding0~options0~and0~changing0~my0~keyboard0~layout0~in0~the0~keyboard0~settings,0~but0~it0~still0~shows0~up0~like0~this..0;2~:(
[22:55] <ahaminoo> I'm using Lucid, my processor (AMD TURION X2 ULTRA) overheats, espeically when I watch youtube, can anybody help
[22:56] <mixel> sebsebseb, no idea how long freenode has been around. but mixel is on hold, since before 2000
[22:56] <cjdevlin> |corpse| did you run the integrity check on the media? there have been many reported issues (esp w/ server) with trouble getting a working disk from the downloads
[22:56] <|corpse|> Loshki: I am running off a usb stick. the server i am setting up does not have a cdrom drive
[22:56] <khunter619> Unetbootin doesn't work because XP setup uses NTLDR (NT loader) to boot into XP setup.
[22:56] <cjdevlin> navatwo: have you tried another keyboard? it could be a hardware issue
[22:56] <simps> Hi all, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I'm connecting to my Ubuntu via remote desktop from my Windows. I was wondering if it was possible to hear the sounds from my Ubuntu as well as remotely see the screen. Right now, I just see the screen. Thanks in advance!

[22:57] <Loshki> simps: I've never seen that work for anything except windows and rdesktop...
[22:57] <navatwo> Are0~you0~seeing0~spaces,0~or0~wierd0~chars?
[22:57] <sebsebseb> CyL: I wonder how many people have gone back to Windows, since they couldn't get their wireless working in Ubuntu, and never tried distros such as Mandriva or PC Linux OS from the Live CD,  where  well  yours will probably just work.  So maybe if you don't want to do number  2  Ndiswrapper you should try number 3.  Well good luck getting your wireless working in a Linux distro.
[22:57] <|corpse|> cjdevlin: like i said, i have tryed 10.04 64, 386,9.10 386,  10.04 mini.iso, 10.04 desktop 64 and 386, 10.04 alternitive 386. all with differnt issues =\
[22:57] <cjdevlin> navatwo: many laptops have ps/2. you can also try a usb keyboard,
[22:57] <CyL> sebsebseb: thanks for the advice.. I'm going to restart

[22:58] <|corpse|> Loshki: im not sure, there was a point were i would get stuck at a cdrom detection area and it would offer me a shell. but i do not get that option anymore, as i get past that part now

[22:59] <DJ_HaMsTa> hwmon0 is the CPU ?
[23:00] <Greek-Boy> my gconf says it filed to connect to the configuration server, I get something like Conf-CRITICAL **: gconf_value_free: assertion `value != NULL' failed. i googled but can't seem to find a solution for my case.

[23:01] <DjDark> heyyyy i need help installing idjc....    "configure: error: no suitable Python interpreter found"
[23:01] <Loshki> |corpse|: well my first guess is that your hardware (disk) is faulty in some way so if you can get as far as running a live desktop, there are various apps you can run to check out the hardware...
[23:01] <DigiJo> hi
[23:01] <simps> Loshki, is there an rdesktop server for ubuntu that you know of?
[23:01] <sebsebseb> khunter619: not sure if you can do that, but you could burn to CD
[23:02] <owenll> !hi | Digijo
[23:02] <emerica> Having a problem with optical audio out on karmic, Seems to work ok for some hours and then sound output dies, Reciever still sees lfe,  if i restart pulseaudio is comes back if i close anything else using audio.  I set my alarm last night (kalarm & vlc) for this morning and slept in  :)   As the sound output died again sometime in the night.
[23:02] <sebsebseb> khunter619: I guess Windows fan boys in ##windows will know if you can do a bootable USB though
[23:02] <Loshki> simps: that would be the obvious solution wouldn't it? Of course, I've never heard of one...
[23:02] <juju2143> hi, I have UNR 10.04, I installed the poulsbo drivers and restarted X, then the icons won't show anymore, what I do?
[23:02] <|corpse|> Loshki: yeah, the thing is, is i have 4 differnt HDDs in the box and i have tried installing to each of them with the same result. i am starting to belive it must be a hardware issue i just dont want to fully admit it yet
[23:03] <khunter619> sebsebseb: I was able to do that Winto Flash - http://wintoflash.com/download/en/ ;
[23:03] <navatwo> CanSomeoneHelpMeOut,ICannotUseTheSpaceKey...ThisIsASeriousIssue...
[23:03] <sebsebseb> khunter619: oh ok
[23:03] <DigiJo> just installed ubuntu netbook remix 10.4 on an old asus eeepc 4g 701 with athos ar5bxb63 wifi chipset, wifi seems to have problems. any hint what to do?
[23:03] <[AWE]> does rsyslog mean anything to anyone?
[23:03] <juju2143> DigiJo, proprietary drivers?
[23:04] <Ashfire908> I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 yesterday, how to I move the window controls (minimize, close, etc) back to the right?
[23:04] <sebsebseb> !controls | Ashfire908
[23:04] <simps> Loshki, lol sorry for thinking the obvious. Thanks a bunch then
[23:04] <navatwo> CanSomeoneHelpMeOut,ICannotUseTheSpaceKey...ThisIsASeriousIssue...
[23:04] <DigiJo> no clue, i am ubuntu beginer
[23:04] <juju2143> hi, I have UNR 10.04, I installed the poulsbo drivers and restarted X, then the icons won't show anymore, what I do?
[23:04] <sebsebseb> Ashfire908: thats for the default black or grey theme, amibiance radience whatever they are called
[23:04] <DigiJo> wifi works, but seems to be very slow and loses connection
[23:04] <juju2143> it's annoying
[23:04] <sebsebseb> Ashfire908: if you use another  theme they will beo n the right like before,  oh and loads of people complained about the buttons being moved when 10.04 was in development
[23:04] <khunter619> sebsebseb: I need to do it again, this time with linux app
[23:04] <Loshki> |corpse|: well, it's unlikely that all 4 drives would develop the same fault: I would suspect some incompatibility between your mobo and Ubuntu. Try 8.04 instead?
[23:04] <sebsebseb> khunter619: uh why with a Linux app?
[23:05] <DrGrov> Any idea on how to change font size and DPI in KDE 4.x? Having some major issues since I can't read anything on my 42" LCD tv
[23:05] <Ashfire908> sebsebseb, I know people complained.
[23:05] <Loshki> simps: no, it's a good question, you're not the first to ask it. I wish there was a solution...
[23:05] <joshuah> merischino: did you get it figured out?
[23:05] <khunter619> sebsebseb: I can't boot into my Windows partition
[23:05] <mkquist> Ashfire908: i found if you just change the theme to one with the buttons where they were, it does it for you
[23:05] <[AWE]> When I fire up my Ubuntu VM it works fine but if I subsequently 'shutdown 0' when it restarts there a failure to do with rsyslog and from then on I can't connect via ssh
[23:05] <mkquist> Ashfire908: sry, delayed response
[23:06] <Ashfire908> sebsebseb, Thank you, that was surprisingly painless.
[23:06] <[AWE]> at least I think it's rsyslog (the startup goes very fast and as soon as it fails a blue screen apears)
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[23:06] <onetinsoldier> hello there ActionParsnip
[23:06] <DigiJo> looks like i have to install some madwifi drivers, but how?
[23:06] <sebsebseb> Ashfire908: indeed and np
[23:06] <sebsebseb> khunter619: ok why can't you boot up Windows partition?
[23:06] <Slart> navatwo: it's very hard to troubleshoot when you can't type commands in a terminal or supply us with information
[23:07] <Slart> !details | navatwo
[23:08] <Greek-Boy> my gconf says it filed to connect to the configuration server, I get something like Conf-CRITICAL **: gconf_value_free: assertion `value != NULL' failed. i googled but can't seem to find a solution for my case. This started happening after distro-upgrade when trying to run mythbackend
[23:09] <sebsebseb> khunter619: apparantly unetbootin can do your bootable Windows USB
[23:09] <khunter619> sebsebseb: I had Win 7 partition which came preloaded with my netbook; then I installed Ubuntu (which installed Grub); I made a new partition using Gparted to install XP; however when running the XP setup it started causing problems as in it boots win 7 instead; so I deleted win 7 partition; then no OS was loading; so I used my USB live cd to fix GRUB
[23:09] <Slart> navatwo: one thing to try is to run "xev" in a terminal, press space and see what keycode and keysym it reports
[23:09] <sebsebseb> khunter619: thats unetbootin
[23:09] <undecim> navatwo: Can you use space in the grub menu? (reboot, and if you don't usually get the menu, hold left-shift as your computer boots to get to the grub menu)
[23:09] <khunter619> sebsebseb: I already tried Unetbootin;
[23:10] <khunter619> sebsebseb: Unetbootin could Not make Win XP setup bootable
[23:10] <santisnight> OK so i just set up a dual boot with XP and ubuntu 10.04 and XP (which is professional ed) doesn't want to load. both OS are on seperate hard drives. what happens when i select XP out of the GRUB Loader is it goes to a black screen with a blinking "_". help please
[23:11] <khunter619> Yup I have same problem as santisnight
[23:11] <mkquist> khunter619: so you want to boot into windows again?
[23:11] <santisnight> yyes.
[23:11] <santisnight> er.
[23:11] <sebsebseb> khunter619: Have you got Windows on another computer?
[23:11] <khunter619> I added XP to Custom40 something
[23:11] <santisnight> *similar problem similar awnser*
[23:11] <chipmank> stutterer?
[23:11] <DigiJo> any help? ubuntu netbook remix 10.04, asus eeepc 701 4g, atheros wifi chipset ar5bxb63, wifi doesnt work properly
[23:12] <khunter619> to make GRUB list XP
[23:12] <Slart> santisnight: you're using the normal grub 2 that came with 10.04? you have run the "sudo update-grub" command?
[23:12] <khunter619> mkquist: yes I would like to boot into windows again
[23:12] <ActionParsnip> DigiJo: if you run: sudo iwlist scan     do you see SSIDs?
[23:12] <Loshki> navatwo: can you try booting some other distro e.g. windows, to see if it's a harware or software issue...
[23:12] <navatwo> Its0~being0~recognized0~as0~F9
[23:12] <DigiJo> let me check
[23:12] <mkquist> khunter619: looks like you need to reinstall windows, if you 'deleted win 7 partition'...
[23:12] <undecim> khunter619: I'm pretty good with boot problems, but a little behind on your conversation. What's the problem?
[23:12] <Acorn> how can I troubleshoot not being able to access a certain website in ubuntu?
[23:13] <Slart> Acorn: what kind of error do you get?
[23:13] <santisnight> I'm using the GRUB that installed with 10.04. (i actually installed.. i think 9.14 i think... because my computer wouldn't detect my DVD drive when trying from the DVD.
[23:13] <sebsebseb> khunter619: I am asking some guys else where by the way
[23:13] <ActionParsnip> Acorn: what messages do you get, and what sites?
[23:13] <navatwo> Slart: its0~being0~recognized0~as0~`F9'
[23:13] <khunter619> undecim: I have ISO file for Win XP pro which I downloaded from MSDN. I want to dual boot Ubuntu + XP. I am currently on Ubuntu. I need an application that will make the Win XP setup into USB boot disk; plus any suggestion in advance so I don't break Grub; Unetbootin doesn't work because XP setup uses NTLDR (NT loader) to boot into XP setup.
[23:13] <santisnight> PS: XP was installed first :P
[23:14] <sebsebseb> khunter619: anyway yeah you need to use a Windows CD to fix its boot loader, also
[23:14] <Acorn> Slart, ActionParsnip: when i try and log into any google service it just doesn't load, it tries to connect and then just gets to a white page..
[23:14] <DigiJo> yes it sees ssids on wlan0
[23:14] <Acorn> no problem with any other website
[23:14] <sebsebseb> khunter619: I know you can boot more than one Windows install from a Windows boot loader menu.  however well ##windows can help with that
[23:14] <DjDark> idjc anyone
[23:14] <Slart> navatwo: what keycode? what keysym?
[23:14] <khunter619> mkquist: but I installed XP partition fully
[23:14] <tripps> ok so I've downloaded and extracted b43-fcutter firmware files using instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=781747 but I don't get anything listed under "hardware drivers" after doing so. I've verified the files are there under the /lib/firmware/b43 and b43legacy directories. what now?
[23:14] <sebsebseb> khunter619: then once you got Windows booting like that, you will have to reconfigure Grub anyway
[23:14] <sebsebseb> khunter619: its Ubuntu 10.04?
[23:14] <mkquist> khunter619: have you tried updateing grub?
[23:14] <santisnight> brb
[23:14] <mkquist> khunter619: to see if it finds xp?
[23:14] <ActionParsnip> Acorn: try a different browser. you can also try logging on a another user to see if it is settings which are bad
[23:15] <undecim> khunter619: What have you got so far?
[23:15] <khunter619> mkquist: yes, I already tried sudo update-grub
[23:15] <sebsebseb> khunter619: you need Windows booting first
[23:15] <khunter619> mkquist: it doesnt detect XP
[23:15] <sebsebseb> khunter619: really
[23:15] <Slart> Acorn: hmm.. works fine here.. might be a local thing.. hard to tell
[23:15] <sebsebseb> khunter619: with its bootloader, then sort Grub out
[23:15] <navatwo> keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9)
[23:15] <DigiJo> its connected to my router, but data rate is extrem slow and unstable, allways goes up to 500kb/sec then down to 0, waits for 2 minutes then goes up again to full speed
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> tripps: if you use a wired connection, your life will be losts easier
[23:16] <DigiJo> encyption is wpa tkip
[23:16] <Acorn> Slart: I suppose I can try booting back into windows and see if there's a problem, doubt there will be though
[23:16] <sebsebseb> khunter619: or get rid of Windows, and use Ubuntu on the net book :)
[23:16] <navatwo> Slart: keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9)
[23:16] <tripps> ActionParsnip, yes I"m aware. :) That's not an option, however
[23:16] <mkquist> khunter619: your on ubuntu right now? on the problem machine?
[23:16] <Slart> navatwo: oh.. it seems to work now.. or?
[23:16] <khunter619> mkquist: yes
[23:16] <navatwo> nope0~copy0~paste
[23:16] <navatwo> :p
[23:17] <ActionParsnip> tripps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[23:17] <ActionParsnip> tripps: shows you how to use the files on the install cd.
[23:17] <khunter619> undecim: I made changes to /etc/grub.d/40_custom
[23:17] <Slart> navatwo: ah, sneaky.. well.. keycode 75 on my regular desktop keyboard is indeed f9.. perhaps your keyboard is special in some way.. let me check the settings..see if there's anything useful in there
[23:18] <khunter619> menuentry "Microsoft Windows XP (on /dev/sda5)" {
[23:18] <khunter619> 	search --fs-uuid --set A85023105022E4B2
[23:18] <khunter619> 	chainloader +1
[23:18] <khunter619> }
[23:18] <FloodBot3> khunter619: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:18] <undecim> khunter619: You shouldn't have to mess with /etc/grub.d... Do you alread have XP installed?
[23:18] <khunter619> undecim: Yes XP is installed but Grub doesnt detect it
[23:18] <undecim> khunter619: How did you get it installed?
[23:19] <khunter619> undecim: I tried sudo update-grub & sudo update-grub2
[23:19] <santisnight> Slart,  just did and tried, no dice, still the blinking underscore of death.
[23:19] <Slart> navatwo: for example.. in preference, keyboard there's something called Keyboard model.. mine is set to "Generic 105-key (intl) pc" .. there seems to be about a gazillion different models to choose from
[23:19] <khunter619> undecim: I created a USB setup disk using Wintoflash
[23:19] <rwhr> Hi everyone. When I am watching a MOV or MP4 file the processor goes to 100% useage, but when I watch a DVD, it hardly gets used. Is this a decoder problem? Both times I am using VLC player. Is it possible to fix this?
[23:19] <khunter619> undecim: now my usb disk has Ubuntu netbook edition setup
[23:19] <Slart> santisnight: hmm.. haven't dual booted with xp in a while.. I have no problems booting windows 7 from grub 2 though.. and with the new autodetecting there isn't a lot to configure
[23:19] <wildbat> morning~
[23:19] <ActionParsnip> rwhr: tried a different player?
[23:20] <undecim> khunter619: You installed it to sda5? I don't think windows can boot from a logical partition.
[23:20] <mgolisch> rwhr: is this hd videos? maybe your cpu is too weak
[23:20] <rwhr> ActionParsnip: Yes. Same effect.
[23:20] <onetinsoldier> rwhr: what kind of cpu does the system have?
[23:20] <santisnight> Slart,  it sees it as it is on the boot-list. (if thats what you mean by detecting) any other ideas?
[23:20] <jasunto> anyone try system76 lemur?
[23:21] <rwhr> mgolisch: I'll check the resolution of it..
[23:21] <ActionParsnip> rwhr: is there a bug logged for it?
[23:21] <rwhr> onetinsoldier: turion64 1g7 from memory..
[23:21] <Slart> santisnight: not really.. with the old grub you could check the menu.lst.. but with the new grub I don't think it's possible
[23:21] <khunter619> undecim: it is sda3 & sda5; sda3 being the extended partition and sda5 being the NTFS partition
[23:22] <ActionParsnip> jasunto: looks expensive for what it is
[23:22] <undecim> khunter619: Try installing it to a primary partition (sda1-sda4) and then run sudo update-grub
[23:22] <onetinsoldier> rwhr: roger. it might be a little weak for the file you're trying to play. not sure. but yes, decoders take some cpu for sure
[23:22] <khunter619> undecim: But I need to make XP setup bootable first (using Ubuntu)
[23:22] <tripps> ActionParsnip, many thanks that helped. :)
[23:22] <wildbat> khunter619, that didn't boo the XP?
[23:23] <wildbat> khunter619, boot*
[23:23] <khunter619> wildbat: no only the cursor came
[23:23] <santisnight> Slart, okay is there ANY possible way to get it running? like a fresh install maybe? i have all my data backed up anyhow so a fresh install is doable with no issues...
[23:23] <khunter619> wildbat: _
[23:23] <khunter619> wildbat: and black screen
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> tripps: cool, getting updates will help
[23:23] <undecim> khunter619: I'm pretty sure that XP needs to be on a primary partition to boot.
[23:23] <rwhr> mgolisch: onetinsoldier I'd say the lack of CPU power is the problem, the files are: 1280x720 H.264/AVC @ 60fps!
[23:24] <Slart> santisnight: I have no idea if a fresh install will change anything, sorry
[23:24] <santisnight> Slart,  ok, thanks anyhow.
[23:24] <onetinsoldier> rwhr: roger that. video driver can make a difference to i believe
[23:24] <onetinsoldier> and video card model
[23:24] <santisnight> khunter619,  what have you trued so far? (so i may try also and see the results.)
[23:24] <rwhr> Thanks all! I think I'll have to convert them before I watch them next time on my laptop - any suggestions to a good video converter?
[23:25] <onetinsoldier> rwhr: winff/ffmpeg
[23:25] <ikonia> rwhr: mencoder
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> rwhr: winff or handbrake are gui tings but mencoder is brilliant
[23:25] <undecim> khunter619: If you reinstall XP to a primary partition, not an extended/logical, it will be detected by grub and will boot.
[23:25] <mgolisch> if its a dualcore cpu you could try ffmpeg-mt
[23:25] <navatwo> Slart: I've0~already0~tried0~changing0~that
[23:25] <cjdevlin> santisnight: have you ever dual booted? or is this a new endeavor?
[23:25] <rwhr> onetinsoldier: I just tried playing it in XINE (I didn't know that I had it) and it works, just.. Still 100% but minimal frame losses, I think I'll down covert it though..
[23:25] <undecim> khunter619: On a logical paritition, XP won't boot without third party boot utilities
[23:26] <Slart> navatwo: what's the brand and model of the laptop?
[23:26] <ikonia> undecim: xp would be deected on an extended logical partition too
[23:26] <onetinsoldier> rwhr: :-)
[23:26] <mgolisch> or if you have a graphics chip that support offlifiting of some of the decoding that might help too for h264
[23:26] <cjdevlin> navatwo: this sounds like a hardware problem. step one is try another keyboard.
[23:26] <Minotauro> Hi, I'm upgrade from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.4 but I have a wired behavior with gtk file-selector widget. For example, I'm using gmail from firefox or epiphany and try to attach a file, then at gtk file-selector widget start typing to jump to my file, when I reach my file it get selected but then a "pseudo-selection" appear and start moving upwards my file, so, when I click the "open" button gmail attach another file and not the file I selected. The same is
[23:26] <Minotauro> for emesene, f-spot and I think any app using the gtk file-selector, any help?
[23:26] <khunter619> I used WintoFlash (inside Win7) to make XP ISO bootable on USB drive; I was able to boot XP with the flash drive; then I erased flash drive to put Ubuntu Live CD to fix Grub
[23:26] <mzuverink> what is the loin info for live cd of lucid
[23:26] <navatwo> Slart: Asus0~laptop0~keyboard.0~cjdevlin0~I0~can't...
[23:27] <exarkun> How does libvirt discover storage images?
[23:27] <khunter619> Now I need a linux app that will make XP ISO bootable on USB drive on
[23:27] <exarkun> It's missing some of mine.
[23:27] <rwhr> Single core only. I'll convert it on my main machine (Core 2 Quad) and then transfer it back.. was a little embarrasing when I wanted to show an in car camera on the projector to the car club the other week...
[23:27] <ikonia> mzuverink: there is no login, it auto logs you in as boot
[23:27] <mgolisch> khunter619: i dont know of any
[23:27] <mzuverink> not mine
[23:27] <santisnight> cjdevlin, yeah new endeavor, but my data and everything is backed up safely so...
[23:27] <mzuverink> it goes to login
[23:27] <ikonia> mzuverink: then you don't have a valid cd
[23:27] <santisnight> cjdevlin, worse comes to worse i scrap it and fresh install XP
[23:27] <mgolisch> khunter619: stuff like unetbooting only supports isolinux based cds
[23:27] <mzuverink> md5 mTCH
[23:27] <Slart> navatwo: can you be a bit more specific? the keyboard on my asus laptop works without any problems
[23:27] <mzuverink> MATCH
[23:28] <cjdevlin> santisnight: are you trying to dual boot both from the hard drive?
[23:28] <mkquist> khunter619: might try looking at the drives with gparted and see if the windows partition is flagged as bootable?
[23:28] <navatwo> Slart: mine0~did0~as0~well,0~but0~it0~*suddenly*0~started0~working
[23:28] <ikonia> mzuverink: then you need to make sure it's booting from the CD and not your disk as the cd auto logs you in
[23:28] <undecim> mkquist: That doesn't make a difference to grub
[23:29] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  both from the same hard drive? no. actually my ubuntu is running from an external hard drive.
[23:29] <khunter619> mkquist: wait I will upload screenshot of gparted
[23:29] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  but the XP is on the master drive internal the computer.
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> khunter619: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/windowsxpusb
[23:29] <owenll> navatwo: can you boot from a live cd to see if the propblem persists?
[23:29] <mkquist> undecim: if he installed windows after ubuntu it should have made itself bootable and made it miss grub on boot
[23:30] <cjdevlin> santisnight: i don't know how far you have gotten w/ the research on this, but there were known issues w/ dual booting. xp has to be installed first. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[23:30] <navatwo> owenll: yeah,0~probably
[23:30] <navatwo> I0~can0~try0~in0~windows0~7
[23:30] <khunter619> mkquist: http://i50.tinypic.com/23uahaa.jpg
[23:30] <undecim> mkquist: From what I understood he is trying to get XP to boot from grub.
[23:30] <mkquist> undecim: how many web pages are devoted to fixing grub after windows installs?
[23:30] <Slart> navatwo: can you pastebin the output from "xmodmap -pke" ?
[23:30] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  i know that and it was.
[23:30] <mkquist> undecim: he is, but from what i gather, he installed windows after...  is that correct khunter619?
[23:31] <fatum> Why was the ability to theme the login screen removed from 10.04?
[23:31] <mkquist> khunter619: windows installed after ubuntu?
[23:31] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  there is a way to do it pre XP but its annoyingly complicated.
[23:31] <dereks> hello. i have a webcam attached as /dev/video0. everything is good but the picture is upsidedown (due to how its mounted)... is there a way to fix this?
[23:31] <khunter619> mkquist: yes after ubuntu
[23:32] <undecim> khunter619: Can you download and run the boot info script (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/) and post a pastebin of the output? It should clear up some confusion.
[23:32] <khunter619> ActionParsnip: those instruction are for Windows users
[23:32] <mkquist> khunter619: well xindows is definitely NOT on a primary...
[23:32] <mkquist> undecim: did you see his pastebin?
[23:32] <ActionParsnip> khunter619: got a windows system available?
[23:33] <undecim> mkquist: no
[23:33] <khunter619> ActionParsnip: no
[23:33] <fatum> Was there a specific reason for removing the ability to theme the login screen in Ubuntu 10.04?
[23:33] <mkquist> undecim: http://i50.tinypic.com/23uahaa.jpg
[23:33] <khunter619> undecim: how do I run it?
[23:34] <ikonia> fatum: it's for forward compatability to gnome3
[23:34] <khunter619> undecim: it is .sh file
[23:34] <ActionParsnip> fatum: its very possible
[23:34] <undecim> khunter619: Open a terminal, cd to the directory it downloaded to (cd Downloads), and run "sudo bash boot_info_script*.sh"
[23:35] <fatum> Completely dropped GDM themes?
[23:35] <onetinsoldier> personally, i think they should have gnome3, to gnome3
[23:35] <ikonia> fatum: no, but awakrward to use
[23:35] <onetinsoldier> personally, i think they should have left* gnome3, to gnome3
[23:35] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  still there?
[23:36] <ikonia> 9what ?
[23:36] <ikonia> onetinsoldier: what ?
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> fatum: if you run: sudo cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow      then logoff, you will be able to select the wallpaper you want. you can then login. You MUST then run: sudo unlink /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop
[23:36] <undecim> khunter619: mkquist: I have to go to the store, but will be back
[23:36] <brax> Can I use VirtualBox to run the OS on my other partition?
[23:36] <khunter619> undecim: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/218715/
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> brax: no, it allows you to install an OS as a vbox
[23:37] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: seems kind of half-baked. is all of lucid's gnome forward compat with gnome3 then?
[23:37] <ikonia> undecim: you can with kvm though
[23:37] <ikonia> onetinsoldier: it's nothing to do with ubuntu - it' a gnome thing,
[23:37] <brax> Okay. Is there any way to run the OS on my other partition without restarting?
[23:37] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: yeah.. i know what you mean
[23:37] <cjdevlin> santisnight: yes
[23:37] <ikonia> brax: no, kvm is your best bet
[23:38] <brax> Okeydoke.
[23:38] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  Any ideas?
[23:38] <ActionParsnip> brax: you may be able to P2V it to make a virtualbox but you will have duplicated the system and tey will be independant of each other
[23:39] <con-man> am I have issues with lag and psm-linux streaming videos, can someone here help me or find me an irc channel that can
[23:39] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: gnome made our version of gdm forward compat with gnome3... what for?  after all, i'm not using gnome3
[23:39] <ikonia> onetinsoldier: no idea of the full story, ask the developers
[23:39] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: i hear ya
[23:40] <lexvegas> does anyone know how to start networking in a text only console? i cant get it to work in 10.04
[23:40] <ikonia> lexvegas: you'll need to configure /etc/network/interfaces file and restart networking using the init script
[23:40] <ikonia> lexvegas: or you can manually configure each network card with ifoncifg/ip adr, and route
[23:42] <lexvegas> ikonia, thanks
[23:42] <cjdevlin> santisnight: sorry, i was rereading all of the stuff to make sure i have everything straight. you are using ubuntu 9.04, booting xp from the hard drive and ubuntu from an external. you get the windows loader, but when you select xp it doesn't boot?
[23:43] <khunter619> mkquist: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/218715/ --- Gparted Screenshot: http://i50.tinypic.com/23uahaa.jpg -- Should I change some flags in gparted to make it bootable?
[23:43] <sCOTTo> hey guys, hamachi VPN - is there any faults I should know about which would compromise my security ?
[23:44] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  no i have ubuntu 10.04, and when trying to load from the GRUB 2 loader ubuntu boots fine while XP pro just gets a blinking underscore.
[23:44] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  but yes the internal has XP external has linux, and windows fails to load.
[23:44] <ph0n7r1c> does anyone know how i can change the resolution  of my computer in U10.4
[23:45] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: system->preferences->monitor
[23:45] <ph0n7r1c> i have looked for the xorg.config file in /etc/X11 but no file
[23:46] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: system->preferences->monitor
[23:46] <onetinsoldier> ph0n7r1c: in 10.04, by default, there isn't one
[23:46] <ph0n7r1c> my monitor supports 1600X1200 but it does not show up on the GUI
[23:47] <ph0n7r1c> so where is the config read from then
[23:47] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: what video card do you have ?
[23:47] <ph0n7r1c> some other directory
[23:47] <red2kic> ph0n7r1c: 800x600 is nice. IMO.
[23:47] <cjdevlin> santisnight: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[23:47] <red2kic> ph0n7r1c: Try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg"
[23:47] <Vroomfondle> ph0n7r1c: the configuration is auto-generated these days, in theory
[23:47] <ph0n7r1c> 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] [1002:791e]
[23:48] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: ok - ati, have you enabled the propritary drivers in "hardware drivers" gui ?
[23:48] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: have you checked the driver support on this card ?
[23:49] <ph0n7r1c> when i run Hardware drives GUI nothing shows up
[23:49] <red2kic> ph0n7r1c: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"  Sorry. :3  That should generate a Xorg.
[23:49] <wildbat> khunter619, hmm try to make the ntfs bootable and see ~ if not you may need to move the windows XP to a primary partition.
[23:49] <mkquist> khunter619: sry for lag, reading up, it does look like windows can be installed on a logical partition, it just looks like it wants to boot from a primary... check this outhttp://www.zyxware.com/articles/2008/07/20/how-to-install-and-boot-windows-on-a-logical-parition
[23:50] <lexvegas> wildbat, i may be wrong, but i think i remember reading somewhere that Windows needs to be on a primary partition to work
[23:50] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: ok then your card isn't supported by the current drivers pre-installed in ubuntu, you need to check version support for that card as ati drops support for devices quite a lot
[23:50] <ph0n7r1c> umm just wondering if the other cause could be that i have an AOC LCD 24inc
[23:50] <mkquist> khunter619: and another saying same, but shorter... http://www.sousuke.org/wiki/Installing_Windows_on_a_logical_partition
[23:50] <con-man> am I have issues with lag and psm-linux streaming videos, can someone here help me or find me an irc channel that can
[23:50] <ikonia> ph0n7r1c: very possible, but very very doubtful
[23:51] <ikonia> con-man: we are not a channel searching service, this is ubuntu support
[23:51] <wildbat> lexvegas, well ~ may be but setting the boot flag is faster then moving the partition ~ why not try that
[23:51] <onetinsoldier> red2kic: just an fyi, but every time i've seen someone advise this to someone as a way to generate an xorg.conf file in lucid, the other person comes back saying that it didn't ;-)
[23:51] <lexvegas> wildbat, good point
[23:51] <IdleOne> How do I print from the CLI?
[23:51] <mkquist> khunter619: personally i always install windows first on a primary to avoid problems, but looks like it can be done..
[23:52] <ikonia> onetinsoldier: right, it wont as there is nothing there for it to parse first time around
[23:52] <ikonia> IdleOne: lp
[23:52] <tripelb> wildbat: definitely windows needs to be on a primary partition to work (as do some unix...)
[23:52] <red2kic> onetinsoldier: Oh I should say "sudo -i" then. :(
[23:52] <ikonia> IdleOne: or lpr depending on your setup
[23:52] <ph0n7r1c> i think so because went through forum but nothing say anything about X1200 only X1300
[23:52] <IdleOne> thank you
[23:52] <mkquist> wildbat: check the links i gave to khunter619
[23:52] <IdleOne> ikonia: thank you
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: ahh, i see
[23:52] <onetinsoldier> red2kic: no. don't think the sudo has anything to do with it. see what ikonioa said above
[23:52] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/440102/
[23:53] <khunter619> mkquist: I am reading the links you gave.
[23:53] <tripelb> con-man, PM
[23:53] <onetinsoldier> red2kic: but yes, sudo would be needed for that command
[23:54] <mkquist> santisnight: i think you have grub confused... lol
[23:54] <tobydeh> HI, i have dirs created and owned by www-data. My admin user is part of the group www-data, and the dirs has chmod g+w so why can admin write to the dir??
[23:54] <tobydeh> why cant**
[23:55] <mkquist> santisnight: you booting ubuntu from external right? xp from internal...
[23:55] <mkquist> santisnight: your*
[23:55] <santisnight> mkquist,  yeah...
[23:55] <ikonia> tobydeh: log out and back in the admin user - then do an "id" to make sure it's part of the group
[23:55] <tobydeh> ahhh i didnt know i had to log out!
[23:56] <tobydeh> thanks so much ikonia
[23:56] <infid> how can i have ubuntu notify me when i get a new gmail?
[23:56] <tobydeh> is there a wuicker way of realoding without logging out?
[23:56] <ikonia> IdleOne: setup the mail notify icon in the top right of your screen
[23:56] <tripelb> is 10.04 more fussy to boot up than 9.10 ?  ----  (if anyone has been hearing my freezing issue for months, finally it is clear I have really really bad ram. memtest now shows errors. So my work is cut out for me, alas)
[23:56] <ikonia> IdleOne: sorry - not you
[23:56] <santisnight> mkquist,  thoughts?
[23:56] <mkquist> santisnight: and what doesnt boot again?
[23:56] <wildbat> mkquist, looks like windows allow to be chainloaded from primary ~ seem to me the mbr only scan the boot loader in primary partition , but i may be wrong thou ~
[23:56] <ikonia> infid: setup the mail notify icon in the top right of yourscreen
[23:56] <nefast> Hi everyone, I have a problem getting ranger installed.
[23:56] <tripelb> infid, I do believe there are chrome extensions/addons/plugins for that!
[23:57] <santisnight> mkquist,  Windows XP Professional Edition. SP3
[23:57] <mkquist> wildbat: right, that the way i read it, so khunter619 will have to make a small primary to boot windows in his current config
[23:57] <tripelb> infid, also gmail will send a notice to your mobile phone if you like.
[23:57] <cjdevlin> santisnight: have you seen this thread: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[23:58] <mkquist> santisnight: so grub shows, then what, when you choose windows?
[23:58] <khunter619> mkquist: how would I go about making this primary?
[23:58] <lexvegas> ikonia, there is a program called checkgmail
[23:58] <mkquist> khunter619: lemme look back at you gedit paste
[23:58] <santisnight> cjdevlin,  nope
[23:58] <santisnight> mkquist,  yeah
[23:58] <khunter619> thnx
[23:59] <DeoFavente> question - i bookmarked a folder (web root) in nautilus and changed the icon of the folder to something from /usr/share/icons, even an icon with various matching resoultions, figuring nautilus would render that in the places menu but it doesn't. how do i change the icon in the places menu?
[23:59] <tripelb> another question: why does a liveCD have the wrong time (system clock) while the boot from my hard drive has the correct time?
[23:59] <lazka> anyone speaking romanian here?
[23:59] <santisnight> mkquist, i hit enter on windows, the screen goes black for a bit then it goes to "off-black" with a blinking underscore.
[23:59] <wildbat> khunter619, you can do that with gparted khunter619
[23:59] <mkquist> khunter619: youll have to move your swap
[23:59] <cjdevlin> tripelb: motherboards all have the *same* time, once you pick a timezone the os does a conversion
