[21:16] <sjm> Beaker_, I'm getting more confused.  Please explain the layout of what you want to do.
[21:16] <antIP> bobstro: What does alt-f2 do?
[21:16] <bobstro> antIP:  if you're in gnome desktop, just lets you run a program -- like windows-r in widnows
[21:16] <rapage> why can't we pm each other for help, or tag our names with I know this and that it'll be a lot easier to provide suporiot then all @ the same time ask
[21:16] <rapage> plus is less private
[21:17] <guntbert> !pm | rapage
[21:17] <Beaker_> sjm, ok, i basically have 3 ubuntu machines...one will be the server...i want to be able to share printers over CUPS, and basic file sharing...only on my LAN
[21:17] <bobstro> rapage:  you can also use the forms. this can be chaotic.
[21:17] <guntbert> !patience | rapage
[21:17] <rapage> guntbert, I'm worry about privacyI recently been hacked my computer
[21:17] <rapage> I don't want hackers to know what' am up 2
[21:17] <bobstro> rapage:  irc may not be the place for the paranoid!
[21:17] <antIP> bobstro: Hmm. nothing happened with I used sudo gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[21:18] <rapage> is not my mind I rly got hacked
[21:18] <guntbert> rapage: then don't ask for help here, use the forums
[21:18] <bobstro> antIP:  nothing came up?
[21:18] <goruka> QUESTION: How do I install Radeon HD Drivers for Ubuntu so I have fast 3D OpenGL?
[21:18] <antIP> bobstro - Oh, it worked with I dropped "sudo"
[21:18] <sjm> Beaker_, and...?
[21:18] <b0tz> rapage, if your paranoid about security, maybe get a host-cloak first of all
[21:18] <bobstro> antIP:  hehe
[21:19] <bobstro> antIP:  when you've made edits and saved, you should be able to do "sudo mount -a" from terminal to mount everything marked as "auto".
[21:19] <antIP> bobstro - so should I ad that /var/opt/external if I'm using the UUID?
[21:19] <Ibertech> i am trying to make powertop or the downloads from the lesswatts.org website permanent on my ubuntu installation can anyone help me out
[21:19] <antIP> bobstro - ok
[21:19] <bobstro> antIP:  no, one or the other - UUID=... or /dev/device
[21:19] <phillyj> hi, i have matlab installed in ubuntu and yesterday I was able to make a launcher following instructions on ubuntu
[21:19] <Beaker_> sjm, and how do i just allow my local network for CUPS and filesharing in the firewall? Is my network IP <IP_ADDRESS>/24 (is this what i type in the "from" space in GUFW?
[21:19] <phillyj> today, it is not there although the icon is in the icon folder and the "matlab.desktop" is in applications folder.
[21:20] <phillyj> How do i get the launcher to work?
[21:20] <bobstro> antIP:  make sure the path exists (i used /var/opt/external). it can be wherever you want, but must exist!
[21:20] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, what do you mean permanent?
[21:20] <antIP> bobstro - so what was "-3g" for after the "ntfs" ?
[21:20] <bobstro> antIP:  sorry, forgot that bit
[21:20] <bobstro> antIP:  TBH - i forget :)
[21:20] <ilovefairuz> goruka: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[21:20] <bobstro> antIP:  but mine's working like a champ.
[21:21] <Ibertech> Paddy_NI when i run powertop for example i need to re run it after i reboot or go into standby
[21:21] <Paddy_NI> antIP, that's the name of the ntfs driver "ntfs-3g"
[21:21] <bobstro> antIP:  it's a variant on ntfs, but i've forgotten distinction
[21:21] <ilovefairuz> goruka: but first, check system > administration > hardware drivers
[21:21] <sjm> Beaker_, if you have a gateway, firewall between your LAN and the Internet, it doesn't really matter.  Your boxes will only be listening to boxes on their own network.
[21:21] <Paddy_NI> I see Ibertech one sec
[21:21] <Ibertech> i am only getting around 1.5hrs battery in comparison to 3hrs with win7
[21:21] <bobstro> antIP:  if you get errors at terminal doing 'sudo mount -a' they should give hints.
[21:21] <Ibertech> everything else is great :D
[21:21] <goruka> ilovefairuz, thanks!!
[21:22] <revilodraw> hi, i know this is a little off topic, but when i installed ubuntu on my laptop i deleted windows but my new work requires i have windows on my laptop. this should be no problem but the bios in my laptop is Phoenix, and will not allow me to reinstall windows alongside linux. it won't even let me wipe linux and install windows by itself (which is not what i want to do - i want to dual boot). anyway, I'm taking the computer
[21:22] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, yeah power saving is something that is receiving a lot of attention on ubuntu lately
[21:23] <Beaker_> sjm, how do i firewall between network and gateway? I have deny all incoming connections, but i'm not sure how to add exceptions for CUPS and NFS
[21:23] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, I think you can just add powertop to your startup applications.. one sec
[21:23] <antIP> bobstro this is what I have now. UUID=904A60BA4A609F2A             ntfs  uid=<username>, gid=<group(same as username)>, user, defaults, auto          0  2
[21:23] <rapage> guys tghe right resolution is 1024 by?
[21:23] <bobstro> antIP:  no spaces between options!
[21:23] <blsecres> you want to share printing and NFS with your local network or over the Internet?
[21:23] <rapage> da 1 after 800x600
[21:24] <antIP> bobstro: Ok. I took out the spaces.
[21:24] <blsecres> 1024x768?
[21:24] <bobstro> antIP:  you are missing the mount point (where it goes). should come right after UUID bit
[21:24] <DarkSector> Hello, I'd like to ask a question. Why is this line appearing underneath the google logo. Its not happening in opera. And not on any other machine in firefox for that matter http://imagebin.ca/view/iL93qM6.html
[21:24] <rapage> yes
[21:24] <snake_> can someone point me to a room for c++
[21:24]  * Paddy_NI points
[21:24] <DarkSector> snake_, #c++
[21:24] <blsecres> snake_: maybe #friendly-coders
[21:24] <snake_> lol
[21:24] <antIP> bobstro: Ok. is that this part that you gave me? /var/opt/external
[21:24] <ilovefairuz> revilodraw: how is it "not letting you"?
[21:24] <TeslaTony> revilodraw: The way I got around that issue last time was to back up Linux, wipe everything, install Windows, reinstall Linux as a dual-boot, then restore from backup. Don't know what to do about your BIOS, though
[21:24] <snake_> ok thanks
[21:25] <bobstro> antIP:  yes. just point it to a directory you have rights to
[21:25] <sushi-mashi> Can anyone tell how to read .csv file on ubuntu?
[21:25] <Ibertech> Paddy_NI do i need to add any variables to automatically apply the recommended fixes
[21:25] <bobstro> antIP:  /home/<yourname>/<somedir> for example
[21:25] <sjm> Beaker_, Do you have a firewall on the router between your LAN and the Internet?  Deny all incoming connections there.  Then you can have more permissive rules (or none at all) on the boxes on your LAN.
[21:25] <bobstro> antIP:  then create /home/<yourname>/<somedir>
[21:25] <blsecres> sushi-mashi: what do you mean by read? less? awk? soffice?
[21:25] <MichealH> sushi-mashi: Does OO.o do it?
[21:25] <ilovefairuz> DarkAnt: http://google.com/ncr
[21:25] <guntbert> sushi-mashi: open it with openoffice calc
[21:25] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, just a moment my mobile broadband is being unforgivably slow at the moment
[21:26] <antIP> bobstro: So I'm essentially creating a directory for my drive?
[21:26] <Ibertech> oh ok, i will wait thank you
[21:26] <bobstro> antIP:  yes, a 'mountpoint'
[21:26] <ilovefairuz> DarkAnt: it's because it redirects you to co.in, /ncr will prevent this in the future
[21:26] <bobstro> antIP:  so instead of drive letters, you mount volumes into the tree.
[21:26] <sushi-mashi> guntbert: There's no Open Office calc on my system.
[21:27] <sushi-mashi> blsecres: I just want to see the contents of some .csv file
[21:27] <bobstro> antIP:  so i have /var/opt/this, /var/opt/that and so on
[21:27] <MichealH> sushi-mashi: What ubuntu varient have you got?
[21:27] <Beaker_> sjm, yes i have a firewall on my router, and it is set for denying all incoming...so i can open any incoming connection and it will automatically stay within my LAN?
[21:27] <sushi-mashi> 10.04
[21:27] <blsecres> sushi-mashi: $ more foo.csv
[21:27] <brummbaer> sushi-mashi: nano, vi, gedit can open it, but it won't look like a spreadsheet...
[21:27] <Beaker_> sjm, on gufw that is
[21:27] <MichealH> sushi-mashi: I mean, have you fot ubuntu,xubuntu,lubuntu,kubuntu ect.
[21:27] <rapage> guys am typing xrandr --newmode "1024x768_60.00 but it says is not a valid entrnace and according to wiki.ubuntu is a valid option to add a new mode I can later outout
[21:27] <MichealH> *got
[21:27] <antIP> bobstro: So you suggested that I use /home/<yourname>/<somedir> rather than /var/opt/<dir> ?
[21:27] <sushi-mashi> I have UBuntu 10.04. Let me try nano.
[21:28] <dugger5688> I think it was renamed OO.o spreadsheet.
[21:28] <bobstro> antIP:  yeah, probably for a single user system. mine's got multiple users, so i lay it out differently.
[21:28] <blsecres> rapage: xrandr --output DVI1 --mode 1024x768
[21:28] <brummbaer> sushi-mashi: gnumeric is a nice, lightweight spreadsheet program to replace OO Calc
[21:28] <rapage> I use a lcd on a laptopo
[21:28] <rapage> is not using dvi
[21:28] <bobstro> antIP:  but no big difference SO LONG AS permissions are right.
[21:28] <blsecres> then $ xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768
[21:28] <bobstro> antIP:  i over-complicate things. :)
[21:29] <sjm> Beaker_, I would assume so (I'm not familiar with GUFW.  but if your firewall rejects any incoming connections, then the only connection attempts possible are from your LAN.  (Now, if someone connects (wired or wirelessly) to your LAN....
[21:29] <antIP> bobstro: OK. -- So currently me drive is mounted as Secondary type is: folder (inode/directory) according to the "properties".
[21:29] <sushi-mashi> brummbaer: Gnumeric is indeed nice but it says "unsupported file format" when i try to open csv
[21:29] <bobstro> antIP:  ok, unmount it to test.
[21:29] <antIP> bobstro - well, I'm sure it's not complicated for you.
[21:29] <Beaker_> ok, makes sense..thx for your help sjm
[21:29] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, this is what I am waiting for http://www.google.co.uk/url?q=http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php%3Ft%3D1376603&sa=X&rct=j&ei=BImOTNvBIcOQjAfdioWhBg&ved=0CB4QrAIoATAB&usg=AFQjCNE-VOfPFNNCOnHIyAbzTghnBtEEsw
[21:29] <sushi-mashi> Open Office id not doing the job
[21:29] <ilovefairuz> rapage: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding%20undetected%20resolutions
[21:29] <brummbaer> sushi-mashi, that's weird
[21:30] <sushi-mashi> Nano shows me "@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@" like characters
[21:30] <feydr> having trouble w/libnotify -- notify-send is failing silently... I tried redirecting error output but nothing is there
[21:30] <brummbaer> sushi-mashi, i do all spreadsheets as csv as is most portable
[21:30] <rapage> ilovefairuz, what's where I am
[21:30] <brummbaer> sushi-mashi, doesn't sound like this is actually a CSV file
[21:30] <bobstro> antIP:  you getting close? when my buddy calls, i have to fly!
[21:30] <antIP> bobstro... It asked me if I want to empty the trash... I guess that's just asking me if i want to delete any files I may have trashed on that drive?
[21:30] <rapage> blsecres, that's to start outputting but I need to add the new mode first
[21:30] <antIP> bobstro. yeah.
[21:30] <bobstro> antIP:  yeah.
[21:30] <AliceCullen> PHP_Arun: ?
[21:30] <ilovefairuz> rapage: did you create a mode line with cvt?
[21:30] <PHP_Arun> yess?
[21:30] <sushi-mashi> Let me see, it's an auto-generated file so could be something messed up with it.
[21:31] <rapage> randr
[21:31] <AliceCullen> kewl
[21:31] <rapage> xrandr

[21:31] <PHP_Arun> AliceCullen ,  isnt it "less " crowded inhere?
[21:31] <PHP_Arun> :P
[21:31] <bobstro> antIP:  you saved /etc/fstab right?
[21:31] <PHP_Arun> see.. just three four four users
[21:31] <PHP_Arun> lol
[21:31] <AliceCullen> lol
[21:31] <antIP> bobstro - about to.
[21:31] <AliceCullen> no one or two
[21:31] <bobstro> antIP:  yes, but <username> is your username, right? and Data exists?
[21:31] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, that address I gave actually points to here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1157408
[21:31] <Ibertech> just reading now
[21:31] <rapage> antIP, u just gave ur uidd
[21:31] <jimcooncat> sushi-mashi: the command line program "file" may help identify it for you
[21:31] <VCoolio> antIP: defaults isn't necessary once you have other options there, but doesn't matter
[21:31] <bobstro> antIP:  so /home/adam/Data and it must exist
[21:31] <antIP> bobstro - yeah, it's my username, which I've now broadcasted
[21:31] <Ibertech> cheers i will come back in a sec if i get stuck
[21:31] <Ibertech> thanks Paddy_NI
[21:32] <antIP> bobstro - whats the fastest way to create a dir?
[21:32] <rapage> mkdir
[21:32] <bobstro> antIP:  or nautilus -- the 'explorer'. just open places->Home Folder
[21:32] <sushi-mashi> jimcooncat: Thanks. It seems file is corrupt "items.csv: CDF V2 Document, corrupt: Cannot read summary info"
[21:33] <antIP> bobstro - ok. I created it.
[21:33] <bobstro> antIP:  ok, so open terminal and try 'sudo mount -a'
[21:33] <sebsebseb> Hi
[21:33] <bobstro> antIP:  then places->home folder and try opening Data
[21:33] <antIP> bobstro. it worked.
[21:34] <antIP> bobstro - thanks!!!
[21:34] <bobstro> antIP:  ok, so when you reboot, it should be there.
[21:34] <antIP> bobstro - ok. I'll give it a shot right now. You may be gone by the time I'm logged back on. No worries.
[21:34] <bobstro> antIP:  if the message at startup is a problem later, remove the 'auto' and just do the 'mount -a' before you use it.
[21:35] <bobstro> antIP:  ok good luck
[21:35] <rapage> GUYS where is xorg located
[21:36] <rapage> when I input data to xrand where is it going?
[21:36] <rapage> I just inputted wrong data into xrand and want 2remove it
[21:37] <ilovefairuz> rapage: it's not persistent, will be reset on next Xorg restart
[21:38] <rapage> nvm I just did
[21:38] <antIP> bobstro: It worked.
[21:38] <ilovefairuz> rapage: read the WHOLE page before following the instructions and you'll get your answers
[21:38] <rapage> so if I add data to xrand where is it going I wanna do it manualemtn
[21:38] <bobstro> antIP:  excellent. that was a long trip from your original problem. :)
[21:38] <rapage> yes but it akes times
[21:39] <bobstro> antIP:  i am after something a bit slicker to allow insert/removal for esata, but this is working well for now.
[21:39] <antIP> bobstro: Secondary drive is still showing up. I have a Data drive, a Data folder under home, and a Secondary drive on desktop and Places menu.
[21:39] <trakinas> hi guys! need a little help with purftp. I keep getting "PAM Auth failed", but I disabled it.
[21:39] <bobstro> antIP:  hmm. not sure about Secondary. is that the same device?
[21:39] <bobstro> antIP:  was it auto-mounting before?
[21:40] <antIP> bobstro - yeah.
[21:40] <bobstro> antIP:  oh... i thought it wasn't. mine didn't.
[21:40] <antIP> bobstro - it was not automounting before, but it's the same device.
[21:40] <bobstro> antIP:  urgh. ok, i don't get that problem. i only see the mounted drive nice & tidy.
[21:40] <bobstro> antIP:  i know you can configure it, but i don't have any nice pointers for your.
[21:41] <antIP> When I go to mount the "Data" drive in Places menu (because it doesn't show as mounted) it says: Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE
[21:41] <antIP> library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated
[21:41] <antIP> FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged
[21:41] <rapage> guys if I do xrandr --newmode "800x600_60.00"   38.25  800<PHONE_NUMBER>  600 603 607 624 -hsync +vsync why is 60 out of alignment in relation to the other entries
[21:41] <bobstro> antIP:  you can just comment that line in /etc/fstab with '#' at the start if you don't want it.
[21:41] <bobstro> antIP:  oh... does it say ntfs or ntfs-3g in /etc/fstab?
[21:42] <antIP> bobstro: It says ntfs
[21:42] <bobstro> antIP:  make it ntfs-3g. that may be why i changed it.
[21:42] <bobstro> antIP:  hopefully this didn't over-complicate it. :)
[21:42] <bobstro> antIP:  root does mount it at boot, that's why i'm confused.
[21:43] <antIP> bobstro - I'll restart again.
[21:43] <bobstro> antIP:  sorry!
[21:43] <antIP> PS. the Data folder under home is working fine. I can access the drive through there.
[21:43] <antIP> bobstro - no worries mate.
[21:45] <n0a1ias> how do i set up a mike in ubuntu?
[21:46] <antIP> bobstro - same issue on startup.
[21:46] <pfifo> n0a1ias, give him a LiveCD
[21:46] <antIP> Secondary is mounting automatically, but Data is not.
[21:46] <antIP> bobstro:
[21:46] <glebihan> pfifo: :)
[21:46] <n0a1ias> what?
[21:46] <joshmc> n0alias:  User Settings > add
[21:46] <glebihan> n0a1ias: that was a joke
[21:46] <joshmc> ^ +1
[21:46] <feydr> is there a diff. program I should be using to send notifications through besides notify-send? it doesn't seem to be working and doesn't give an error
[21:47] <n0a1ias> ohhh i get it!
[21:47] <n0a1ias> it wasint very good
[21:47] <pfifo> n0a1ias, run alsa-mixer at the command line and press tab to get to the recording settings
[21:47] <bobstro> antIP:  erm...
[21:47] <rapage> I want to install cvt but ubuntun says cant find it
[21:48] <bobstro> antIP:  so it mounts but your user can't write to /home/<yourname>/Data?
[21:48] <erUSUL> !find cvt
[21:48] <rapage> did it change n ame
[21:48] <jrib> rapage: cvt is part of xorg -_-
[21:48] <rapage> doesn't work
[21:49] <rapage> ohh I needed sudo
[21:49] <jrib> rapage: "doesn't work" is very vague
[21:49] <antIP> A drive called "Secondary" mounts. A drive called "data" is in the Places menu and is unmounted, and I get an error when I try to mount it. And under Home I have a dir called "Data" that accesses the Secondary drive.
[21:49] <metatagg> join #pitivi
[21:49] <jrib> rapage: it's very likely you already have cvt
[21:49] <metatagg> noo
[21:49] <metatagg> xD
[21:49] <antIP> bobstro: sorry did you get that.
[21:49] <bobstro> antIP:  no, say again
[21:49] <antIP> bobstro: A drive called "Secondary" mounts. A drive called "data" is in the Places menu and is unmounted, and I get an error when I try to mount it. And under Home I have a dir called "Data" that accesses the Secondary drive.
[21:50] <bobstro> antIP:  so... Secondary is now auto-mounting whereas it did NOT before?
[21:50] <antIP> The "Secondary" drive and the "data" dir are the same. "Data" drive wont mount.
[21:50] <rapage> oh I did ctv
[21:50] <antIP> bobstro - yes.
[21:51] <bobstro> antIP:  hmm. let's just comment out that line in /etc/fstab then. it sounds like it's mounting (under /media/Secondary) on its own now.
[21:51] <bobstro> antIP:  which is what you wanted to start with, right?
[21:51] <antIP> bobstro - Yes. That works.
[21:51] <ninjai> how can I encrypt a file using PHP with _only_ a public and private PGP key? (no passphrase)
[21:51] <trakinas> can anyone help me with pure-ftp?
[21:51] <bobstro> antIP:  suffice to say, it is not doing that on my ubu 10.04!
[21:51] <antIP> I'll comment out the whole line we added then.
[21:51] <Lrevo> Ljl: thanks
[21:51] <LjL> ninjai: probably better luck if you ask in ##php
[21:52] <bobstro> antIP:  yeah, just put a # in front of it
[21:52] <Lrevo> LjL: thanks :P
[21:52] <LjL> Lrevo: np :)
[21:52] <bobstro> antIP:  but now i'm jealous
[21:52] <pfifo> ninjai, did you mean pgp?
[21:52] <Lrevo> please tell me how can I setup my fringerprint
[21:52] <ninjai> pififo: aye.. that i did lol
[21:52] <antIP> bobstro: I'll restart again. I'm don't mind doing all of this. I'm LEARNING. I hope to get a Linux certification sometime in the next year if I can. I'm new to linux, but not to IT in general.
[21:52] <ninjai> *PGP
[21:53] <ninjai> LjL: I completely mean PGP :(
[21:53] <bobstro> antIP:  you'll be certifiable, at least
[21:53] <Flash13> Anyone have any experience with using optical SPDIF inputs? It's a pretty complex problem that's stumped me
[21:53] <brummbaer> ninjai: http://devzone.zend.com/article/1265
[21:53] <rapage> guys
[21:53] <LjL> ninjai: oh. well no idea, but there's the option of leaving the passphrase empty when creating a key
[21:54] <rapage> I did what cvt told me but still 60 is out of alignment
[21:54] <rapage> and i fear I blow out my monitor
[21:54] <Lrevo> anybody knows how can i setup fingerprint ???
[21:54] <trakinas> purftp keeps complaining about PAM, but al already said 'no' into the files.
[21:54] <tacomaster> i was wondering is it possiable to share a wireless internet over a wire because i have access to a wireless ap but i have no access to the router it self
[21:55] <trakinas> tacomaster: it is.
[21:55] <erUSUL> !ics | tacomaster
[21:55] <antIP> bobstro - didn't work. Now it's not mounting. ;)

[21:55] <bobstro> antIP:  aaah!
[21:55] <antIP> bobstro: And, as would be expected, that Data dir in home is empty.
[21:56] <Lrevo> I have a dell e6500 but fingerprint wont work
[21:56] <rapage> ok guys I'm ready to add new mode but instead of using s-video what I use?
[21:56] <antIP> bobstro - is that good aaah, or a bad one?
[21:56] <glebihan> bobstro, antIP: rare to see people of thing not working :)
[21:56] <rapage> s-video is tv out right? so I shoiuld use lcdv right
[21:56] <Lrevo> d
[21:56] <bobstro> antIP:  it works like a champ on my box. bad aaah. do an ls /media at terminal. do you see Secondary there?
[21:57] <LjL> Lrevo: maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinkFinger can help
[21:57] <antIP> bobstro - ok. I see the drive there. (sdb1)
[21:57] <bobstro> antIP:  everything i've found indicates that esata are not mounting automatically (yet) like usb, so you need /etc/fstab entry.
[21:57] <bobstro> antIP:  can you open it? is anything there (does it mount) when you open it?
[21:57] <tacomaster> is there a way to reset iptables back to there default?
[21:57] <Lrevo> LjL: when I want to set it up, it says: not device found
[21:57] <rapage> s-video is tv out right? so I shoiuld use lcdv right
[21:58] <bobstro> antIP:  i don't have the mountpoint in /media for mine.
[21:58] <glebihan> tacomaster: sudo ufw reset
[21:58] <antIP> bobstro - Does it require root to mount for some reason?
[21:58] <antIP> bobstro - I don't really understand how the options work.
[21:58] <bobstro> antIP:  well, in /etc/fstab, but that happens at boot. the magical auto-stuff, no shouldn't
[21:58] <bobstro> antIP:  in /etc/fstab?
[21:59] <antIP> bobstro: mmm.
[21:59] <bobstro> antIP:  they vary by filesystem type
[21:59] <tacomaster> glebihan: how is it that yall have learned so much about linux is it yall just have used it for so long or are there books for it plz i hate being a retard when it comes to linux
[21:59] <glebihan> tacomaster: being using it for quite along time now
[21:59] <bobstro> antIP:  normally defaults,auto is enough but some (like ntfs) require more parameters. with ntfs, it can only be 'owned' by one user in the unix/linux sense, so you specify a uid and gid (user and group id)
[22:00] <glebihan> tacomaster: and used to develop a lot under linux,
[22:00] <glebihan> tacomaster: but there are books too
[22:01] <discozohan> anyone has idea, why mdadm after array creation and system reboot switches from partition to devices ? So, i created array, that used sdc1 and sdd1 partitions, but after reboot it uses /dev/sdc and sdd
[22:01] <ugliefrog> I have a micro sd card that wont let me delete the files...it shows they are moved to the trash but when I reload the sd...all the files have returned..Help would be greatly appreciated
[22:01] <glebihan> tacomaster: and don't feel like a retard, it's by using that you learn, and by asking others
[22:01] <mikelifeguard> How can I search for something matching /regex/ in $PATH?
[22:01] <antIP> bobstro: Ok. I found something strange. Why are two UUIDs?
[22:02] <bobstro> antIP:  ?
[22:02] <bobstro> antIP:  shouldn't be for same partition
[22:02] <antIP> bobstro - when I do ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid it shows a shorter UUID (the same as blkid shows) and a longer one.
[22:02] <tacomaster> glebihan: its just that about 4 months ago i switched fully to linux and i have had so many stupid problems that i know were probally created by me and i never had thos problems in windows not because linux is worse or anything i just knew what to do instantly when something broke in windows
[22:02] <erUSUL> mikelifeguard: find ${PATH//:/ } -regex "string" -print
[22:03] <antIP> bobstro: bd143f74-0bb2-452f-b308-b36e72f5eb6e  and 904A60BA4A609F2A
[22:03] <antIP> bobstro - when I do ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid it shows a shorter UUID (the same as blkid shows) and a longer one.
[22:03] <bobstro> antIP:  both point to same partition? (e.g. /dev/sdb1)
[22:03] <antIP> bobstro - never mind.
[22:03] <antIP> bobstro: I'm retarded.
[22:03] <glebihan> tacomaster: I had a lot of issues when I first started using Linux too
[22:04] <rasengan> Anyone have Ubuntu on a MacBook Aluminum?
[22:04] <glebihan> tacomaster: making mistakes is the way to learn how to fix them :)
[22:04] <jrib> rasengan: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[22:04] <mikelifeguard> thanks, erUSUL
[22:04] <antIP> bobstro: i as confused by lines breaks in terminal.
[22:05] <erUSUL> mikelifeguard: no problem
[22:05] <tacomaster> glebihan: lol i have made my share of mistakes like yesterday i somehow uninstalled compiz so i lost all my bars at the top or when i switched from network manager to wicd and all networking functions failed just little petty stuff /sigh
[22:06] <wazzup> i just installed ubuntu next to my windows, but now i want windows to be in the 1st place in the boot menu
[22:06] <wazzup> how can i change that ?
[22:06] <tacomaster> glebihan: very glad i choose ubuntu rather than gentoo as my original thought :P
[22:06] <sheldon> hello all, anyone is using gns3 here ?
[22:06] <tacomaster> i have used gns3 before
[22:07] <sheldon> i have trouble to start a pix with gns3
[22:07] <antIP> bobstro - should I have anything for "Type"?
[22:07] <sheldon> i guess i have some problem with pemuwrapper :(
[22:07] <sheldon> did you help me with this ?
[22:08] <tacomaster> sheldon: i have never had gns3 fail on me sorry
[22:08] <sheldon> ok, thanks
[22:09] <wazzup> i just installed ubuntu next to my windows, but now i want windows to be in the 1st place in the boot menu, how can i change this ?
[22:09] <erUSUL> !grub2 | wazzup
[22:09] <tacomaster> sheldon: you know there is a #gns3 channel right?
[22:09] <wazzup> i will check it out
[22:10] <sheldon> yes tacomaster :)
[22:11] <eriksson25> Hi, Anyone that could help. Have changed a users defult home directory from /home/isak to /hdd/ftp/isak (Yes I know what I am dooing and want it like that) But when I log in to that user with ssh it stil shows home dir as /home/isak
[22:12] <eriksson25> and its a desctop user not a admin.
[22:12] <trakinas> eriksson25: probably because your ssh is configured to point to ~/
[22:12] <trakinas> and not to /hdd/ftp/
[22:12] <mark7845> Does anyone here "donate spare CPU cycles" and if so, whats it all about?
[22:12] <jrib> eriksson25: how did you change it?
[22:13] <Emanon> i'm guessing something like seti@home mark7845
[22:13] <eriksson25> Thrue gui
[22:13] <jrib> eriksson25: getent passwd USER
[22:13] <Saguaro> they're my spare cycles and you can't have them
[22:13] <Emanon> maybe not seti but some other such distributed processing thing
[22:13] <mark7845> Saguaro, thats ok, i don't even know what it means!
[22:14] <rapage> guys
[22:14] <rapage> guys the resulting
[22:14] <rapage> monitor congfi had a refresh rate of 59.4 and apparently is failig to be accepted by ubuntu
[22:14] <eriksson25> What will this do ?-- > getent passwd USER
[22:15] <Ziloni> I just added another ethernet card to my system. It sees it as eth1. I edited /etc/network/interfaces, but its not giving it a static IP.. any ideas?
[22:15] <erUSUL> eriksson25: get the info about user from the passwd file
[22:15] <mick_> I've been having a lot of trouble exporting Lucid virtual machines in VirtualBox. It seems that the exported appliance can only utilize the network only if the mac address for each card is set to that of the original vm.
[22:15] <rapage> how to cdhangew it to 60? I did --newmode "1024x768_60.00"   63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync
[22:15] <glebihan> mark7845: the idea is to use part of the CPU in a project requiring a lot of calculation power
[22:15] <rapage> and it end up with 59.4
[22:15] <Emanon> seti@home is a program that SETI (The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) does where you willingly download a program that uses idle time on PCs all over the world to look through the massive amounts of data collected by deep space telescopes for evidence of alien life. simlar programs do genetic mapping and other things that require HUGE amounts of processing power
[22:15] <Emanon> im guessing its something like that
[22:15] <antIP> Why  do I have apps (Emacs and Document Viewer) automatically starting at start up?
[22:15] <glebihan> mark7845: by accumulating resources from a lot of people over the world, you get to have a very powerful system in the end
[22:16] <eriksson25> it still says its /home/isak
[22:16] <duffydack> its how google is run
[22:16] <mark7845> glebihan, how does that work? calculations are sent over the server and my PC?
[22:16] <jrib> !who | eriksson25
[22:16] <bodwick> Emanon if you're interested in distributed computing chck out BOINC
[22:16] <Emanon> it just exports certain calculations to you for calculation
[22:16] <rapage> how to cdhangew it to 60? I did --newmode "1024x768_60.00"   63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync and it end up with 59.4
[22:16] <jrib> eriksson25: use "usermod" to change it
[22:16] <Emanon> like a beowulf cluster
[22:16] <Emanon> but remote instead of local
[22:16] <Laban> My Ubuntu installation does not start after my last system update. It freezes while starting and all  I see are those red dots on purple background.
[22:16] <Emanon> like the multiple parts of Blue Gene
[22:16] <glebihan> mark7845: something like that, don't know about the details of the algorithms, must be very complicated
[22:17] <Paddy_NI> Emanon, BeoWULF!!!
[22:17] <Laban> 10.04.  Thanks for the info.
[22:17] <zen0-> http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/password_reuse.png
[22:17] <Paddy_NI> Laban, nothing happens... how long have you left it like that
[22:17] <glebihan> mark7845: you're welcome
[22:17] <bhuey> and the bug reporting system is so awkward htat I'm having trouble filing a bug with the stck trace
[22:17] <Laban> Paddy_NI: Over night
[22:17] <Laban> =)
[22:18] <Paddy_NI> Laban, also hopefully you did not interrupt and update/upgrade
[22:18] <Paddy_NI> Laban, hmm.. tried booting to recovery mode and running startx to see if it loads?
[22:18] <Laban> Update was done so it requested reboot, I clicked reboot and that's the last time I got in.
[22:18] <Laban> How do I get into recovery mode?
[22:19] <rapage> how to cdhangew it to 60? I did --newmode "1024x768_60.00"   63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync and it end up with 59.4
[22:19] <rapage> someone pm me
[22:19] <mark7845> Laban, any idea which package was upgraded?
[22:19] <bhuey> nvidia module crashing
[22:19] <bhuey> softirq hang
[22:19] <Paddy_NI> Laban, it should be on the grub menu at the start if you interrupt the countdown timer
[22:19] <bhuey> who do I talk to to get some movement on this ?
[22:20] <Paddy_NI> I wonder if there is a factoid for !recovery actually
[22:20] <Paddy_NI> !recovery
[22:20] <Paddy_NI> gah
[22:20] <Laban> mark7845: It was a fresh installation, so a few hundred packages.
[22:21] <mark7845> Laban, would it not be possible to just reinstall then, If it was a fresh install, that's what I would do.
[22:21] <atoi> I need to use an image on Amazon EC2... does anyone else use that and know a good Ubuntu EBS store image to use? Looks like I'll need to select a community one...
[22:21] <Paddy_NI> mark7845, that does not solve the problem, after another update he could be left with the same issue
[22:22] <Xgrzyb90> hi
[22:22] <Emanon> !hi | Xgrzyb90
[22:22] <mark7845> Paddy_NI: Yes I guess your right! :P
[22:22] <naumOFF> hi
[22:23] <Flash13> Anyone know if there's a way to make ubuntu play the sound from my optical input on my sound card?
[22:23] <Laban> mark7845: I had the same problem before, so that's why I did the fresh installation
[22:24] <mark7845> Laban, ok well in that case I would do as Paddy_NI suggested and go into recovery mode
[22:24] <Paddy_NI> Laban, one sec
[22:24] <glebihan> Laban: to go to grub menu and select recovery mode, hold shift at boot time, until you get to the menu
[22:25] <Paddy_NI> Laban, what laptop are you using?
[22:27] <mark7845> Laban, also I would note what kernals are available to you when you enter grub, if you've done a big update maybe you will probably be using a different kernal
[22:27] <Laban> Paddy_NI: Desktop computer, home brew sort of
[22:27] <Schnitzel> can i install ubuntu on NTFS
[22:27] <Schnitzel> ?*
[22:27] <glebihan> Laban: graphics card ?
[22:27] <LinuxGuy2009> I'm trying to figure out what command line tools I need to make CD/DVD repo disks since aptoncd doesnt seem to be working in lucid, cause the disks arent added as a source properly. I figured out that "dpkg-dev" provides the dpkg-scanpackages command to produce a Packages.gz file. But what other packages/commands will put the packages into a proper pool? Also what package/command is needed to have the system see the disk repo as having a
[22:27] <jrib> Schnitzel: using wubi, yes
[22:28] <Skeeter-> iom looking for a ubuntu theme that looks like this 1 : http://www.148apps.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/IMG_0072.png
[22:28] <Laban> I had a teacher once that wanted us to install 4gb of redhat on 2gb ntfs (back in '02)... that was special... then again, he was a bicycle rapairman more that teacher...
[22:28] <Laban> glebihan: Nvidia 9500GT
[22:29] <jrib> LinuxGuy2009: http://www.debian.org/doc/ is probably a good place to look, don't remember
[22:29] <Paddy_NI> Laban, I think your GDM custom config file got messed or removed according to several bug reports I am reading if you boot into recovery mode and run "sudo gdmsetup" that should help resolve your problems.. also disable auto login if given the option
[22:30] <Ibertech> Paddy_NI i have installed granola and it has taken over 10watts of my power consumption
[22:30] <erUSUL> LinuxGuy2009: http://linuxclues.blogspot.com/2010/06/create-trivial-debian-repository.html
[22:30] <Paddy_NI> Skeeter-, that is some sort of animated wallpaper not a gnome theme
[22:30] <LinuxGuy2009> erUSUL: k thanks Ill check it out.
[22:30] <jrib> LinuxGuy2009: http://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository too
[22:30] <Skeeter-> Paddy_NI, i wanna get the same colors kinda theme
[22:31] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, nice
[22:31] <LinuxGuy2009> jrib: thank you
[22:31] <Paddy_NI> Skeeter-, then browse gnome-look
[22:31] <Skeeter-> *sigh
[22:31] <Wernis> How do i uninstall Wine 100% so that when i install it again on my pc its fresh and as if i never even had it on my pc before ?
[22:31] <getafix> does wubi install linux on the windows partition? or does it partition the drive for you.
[22:31] <jrib> Wernis: don't bother uninstalling, just delete ~/.wine/
[22:31] <rapage> guys
[22:31] <Emanon> Wernis: sudo apt-get purge wine
[22:31] <Ibertech> Paddy_NI gonna get fully charged and see how long the battery lasts now :D thanks for the pointer in the right direction
[22:32] <jrib> getafix: it installs on the windows partition
[22:32] <rapage> strange I did everything right apparently , but am getting error msg : xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed and I'm using LCD on a laptop
[22:32] <Paddy_NI> Ibertech, Sure thing man
[22:32] <Ibertech> l8rs
[22:32] <rapage> my output says default not vga o other
[22:32] <Wernis> jrib: really, and when i re-install like i said it will be "fresh" and never seen by my "virgin to wine" ubuntu ?
[22:33] <getafix> jrib thanks. so it basically does the same thing , if i were to install ubuntu manually using the ubuntu live cd?
[22:33] <jrib> Wernis: why reinstall?  Just delete ~/.wine
[22:33] <Wernis> Emanon: i tried that and when i re-installed it still had all my old stuff ?
[22:33] <jrib> getafix: it installs ubuntu as a file inside your windows partition
[22:33] <Wernis> jrib: why must i delete? haha i want to use a all my windows stuff still ?:P
[22:33] <getafix> jrib and how is that different from me doing it with a live cd.
[22:34] <rapage> strange I did everything right apparently , but am getting error msg : xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed and I'm using LCD on a laptop
[22:34] <jrib> Wernis: you said it wanted it to be "fresh".  Wine doesn't come with any software
[22:34] <jrib> Wernis: I guess the better question is, why do you want to do this?  What do you want to accomplish?
[22:34] <Emanon> ok try "sudo apt-get purge wine && rm -drf ~/.wine" (without the quotes)
[22:34] <Wernis> jrib: ah perfect so if i dl and start again it will be like you said fresh and work like new again ?
[22:35] <jrib> Wernis: I don't know why you keep saying "dl and start again".  You don't have to do that.  Just delete ~/.wine and start using wine again
[22:35] <Wernis> jrib: well i am having problems after i tried to install Delphi 7 and it failed ahrd :'(
[22:35] <jrib> Wernis: what problem?
[22:35] <antIP> Can someone help me stop eMacs and Document Viewer from starting automatically at startup?
[22:35] <Emanon> yea no need to remove just delete its directory ~/.wine and next time you use it it will recreate fresh
[22:35] <jrib> antIP: are they in your startup programs?
[22:35] <mihalis> antIP
[22:36] <Emanon> antIP System>Preferences>Startup Programs and remove them from the list
[22:36] <antIP> jrib - No not under "Startup Applications Preferences" or "Boot-up Manager".
[22:36] <Wernis> jrib: my warcraft 3 keeps failing and cutting me off and delphi wont do anything and my steam is biting *$%. But i think i get it, i delete all me wine crap and then when i run it again i wont have that old crap i used to have ?:)
[22:36] <Dice-Man> bye
[22:36] <mihalis> install the sysv-rc-conf package if you don t find them there
[22:36] <jrib> antIP: do they startup with a fresh new user?
[22:36] <antIP> Emanon - They're not on that list. that's the strange thing.
[22:36] <jrib> Wernis: correct
[22:37] <antIP> jrib - that's a good question. I only have one user. I haven't tried another.
[22:37] <Wernis> sweet so solution found :P haha now for a noob question, how do i delete it ? in terminal :)
[22:37] <emanuelgoldstein> I have a problem with frequency control
[22:37] <glebihan> antIP: in the "Startup Applications Preferences", click Remember currently running applications once you have closed them
[22:37] <antIP> jrib - I'm a noob, I don't even now how to try another user.
[22:37] <emanuelgoldstein> I don't have module acpi-cpufreq
[22:37] <jrib> Wernis: just hit ctrl-h in nautilus, go to your home, right click on .wine and delete
[22:37] <glebihan> antIP: in the "Options" tab
[22:37] <jrib> antIP: system -> administration -> users and groups, create one, log out, log in as new user
[22:37] <emanuelgoldstein> And unfortunately I don't know who to install it
[22:37]  * jrib wonders why emacs is installed in this case
[22:38] <emanuelgoldstein> Someone knows it?
[22:38] <antIP> glebihan - Ok. I'll try that. Does that option automatically start up all of your apps that were running when you logged off/restarted ?
[22:38] <mihalis> antIP ubuntu know is going to a new startup procedure other than init.d
[22:38] <Wernis> jrib: ah nautils ? im lost again sorry :(
[22:38] <glebihan> antIP: only if you check the checkbox
[22:38] <jrib> Wernis: nautilus is the name of the default file browser
[22:38] <getafix> since we were on the topic of wine, is it possible to run multiple windows applications with wine?
[22:39] <glebihan> getafix: yes
[22:39] <antIP> glebihan - right ;)
[22:39] <Wernis> jrib: you are the man! thanks for the help and the patience :P
[22:39] <Emanon> emanuelgoldstein: maybe sudo apt-get install acpi then teb twice for autocomplete to see what packages look right for that?
[22:39] <Emanon> or search synaptic for "acpi"
[22:39] <getafix> glebihan oh. fantastic. i ran into some problems earlier. will try again and tell you the error i get. maybe you guys can help.
[22:40] <antIP> glebihan jrib - thanks. I'll try those suggestions.
[22:40] <Emanon> any chances that evolution will be contained in the communication menu (the little envelope thing in top panel) instead of just having the launcher for it in there when 10.10 rolls around?
[22:40] <LinuxGuy2009> One other thing, some games come as a .run file that you install from, is there any way to convert one of those generic files to a .deb package so I can uninstall using a package manager on the system?
[22:40] <ikonia> Emanon: very doubtful
[22:41] <ikonia> LinuxGuy2009: no
[22:41] <Emanon> oh well i guess ill keep using it in an iconless alltray
[22:41] <emanuelgoldstein> Emanon i tried but it failed
[22:41] <Emanon> how did it fail emanuelgoldstein give me some details
[22:42] <emanuelgoldstein> I have acpi in the newest release i meant
[22:42] <emanuelgoldstein> But still have no control on cpu frequence
[22:43] <Wernis> Is there a way to add apps to my iPod touch through Ubuntu? ie Like download them from a source and then install [but not jailbreaking my ipod] ?
[22:43] <Emanon> oh ok then i dont know sorry emanuelgoldstein
[22:43] <rapage> there's like 4 fat32
[22:43] <goruka> QUESTION: Does latest catalyst (closed) work on ubuntu 10.4? I'm installing the driver and xorg fails by saying: "undefined symbol: resVgaShared" Is there any way that is known to work to install catalyst drivers on ubuntu 10.4?
[22:43] <rapage> which one should I use for max compatibility on xp
[22:43] <zfe> hello
[22:43] <dku> Anyone happen to know of a prequeuing music player for Ubuntu (for sound drops)?
[22:43] <rapage> there's like 4 fat32, which one should I use for max compatibility on xp
[22:43] <Emanon> Wernis: i think you can download them, extract them and manually put them in the directory on your ipod but im not sure
[22:44] <glebihan> emanuelgoldstein: try "sudo apt-get install cpufreqd"
[22:44] <rapage> come on is an easy question
[22:44] <zfe> the ongoing situation about maverick-netbook-edition is totally lame folks
[22:44] <ngirard> Hi all. My gf & I are both running Ubuntu 10.04 on our laptops. We can't get to talk with each other, because of this sound problem: in her sound proferences are two such-called "profiles", say profile 1 and profile 2. Profile 1 is labelled "Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output+Analog Stereo Input" and profile 2 is labelled "Analog Stereo Outpt". Now, using profile 1 I can hear her but she can't hear me ; and using profile 2 it's just the opposit
[22:44] <ngirard> e. It's absolutely echausting. How could we solve this ?
[22:44] <Sybock> Wernis: I know that there are several third-party apps (not iTunes) for Windows, but I've never seen one for ubuntu.
[22:44] <zfe> having something that doesn't boot from usb is _lame_ really
[22:44] <Emanon> rapage: there are only fat16 and fat32 i think bud
[22:44] <emanuelgoldstein> glebihan I tried it also...
[22:45] <Wernis> Emanon: thats so cool, haha that kinda sounds like a GOOD idea, do you know where ican get further help? Google is all about jailbreaking and puttin linux on the ipod, is there a channel ?
[22:45] <emanuelgoldstein> glebihan: I tried also to upgrade kernel
[22:45] <Wernis> Sybock: so maybe i can use wine to do me the honour ?
[22:45] <glebihan> emanuelgoldstein: what were you doing were the error occurred ?
[22:45] <Sybock> Wernis: I believe you have to jailbreak your iPod to access the root directories.
[22:45] <Emanon> um look up how to use the netflix app for ipad on iphone
[22:45] <Sybock> I have one, and had to.
[22:46] <Emanon> that tells how to extract and install that way
[22:46] <Emanon> just repeat it for other apps Wernis
[22:46] <Paddy_NI> Laban, Hey how's the progress?
[22:46] <emanuelgoldstein> I don't accurately remember but I think i was upgrading system ;-)
[22:46] <emanuelgoldstein> I don't joke
[22:46] <Wernis> Sybock: do you know if linux can run iTunes ?
[22:46] <emanuelgoldstein> ;-)
[22:46] <Emanon> and i think with fuse you can access it without jailbreaking
[22:46] <mihalis> does anybody know about apparmor?
[22:46] <Wernis> Emanon: thanks so much!
[22:46] <Paddy_NI> Wernis, why would you want to
[22:46] <Sybock> I don't know the first thing about Linux Wernis.
[22:46] <Emanon> Wernis: no version after 6.something will run in wine yet
[22:46] <Wernis> Sybock: thanks :)
[22:47] <Paddy_NI> Wernis, All the main linux audio players support the ipod
[22:47] <Emanon> if that doesnt work you may have to jailbreak
[22:47] <Laban> Paddy_NI: Working on fixing grub so I can select recovery mode.
[22:47] <Emanon> for music yes Paddy_NI not for apps
[22:47] <rapage> Emanon, ??? ther'es 4
[22:48] <rapage> there 2 actually one with lba
[22:48] <Emanon> where rapage?
[22:48] <Wernis> Paddy_NI: well i want to add apps to my ipod touch, VIA a pc... so i can keep the apps and sync when ever.
[22:48] <Paddy_NI> Emanon, Oh an itouch not an ipod
[22:48] <rapage> which omne should I do
[22:48] <glebihan> emanuelgoldstein: what do you get if you run "sudo modprobe acpi_cpufreq" ?
[22:48] <Paddy_NI> Wernis, I would run windows in a VM just for that I suppose
[22:49] <Wernis> Paddy_NI: haha a bit of a waste but a solution i guess :) thanks
[22:49] <emanuelgoldstein> glebihan: tomasz@tomasz-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe acpi_cpufreq\n FATAL: Module acpi_cpufreq not found.
[22:49] <Sybock> Hey Wernis, doing some google searches I found ten programs that run in Linux that can do it.
[22:49] <Paddy_NI> Wernis, Yeah a bit of waste but I suppose its always handy to have sitting there
[22:50] <Wernis> Sybock: Hm... let me see, i fail :(
[22:50] <rapage> there 2 fat32 one with lba
[22:50] <rapage> whcih one should I go 4
[22:50] <Milos_SD> Hello
[22:50] <Sybock> No, sorry I failed.
[22:50] <emanuelgoldstein> glebihan: someone has said me that I must take  a new kernel, but I have the newest from ubuntu repositiorium
[22:50] <Sybock> Looks like SharePod should be able to do apps though.
[22:51] <Milos_SD> My friend have a HP laptop with some old Intel graphic card ... It have OpenGL 1.3 support ...
[22:51] <Emanon> maybe compile from source emanuelgoldstein?
[22:51] <Sybock> Ah wait, no it can't.
[22:51] <Milos_SD> he have a problem, he can't start any application... only some folder from desktop... but nothing else isn't starting
[22:51] <emanuelgoldstein> Emanon: ;-)
[22:52] <Emanon> Milos_SD: is english your native language if not what is we can direct you to the proper channel for your native
[22:52] <Emanon> not to say you dont speak well but would be easier for you
[22:52] <Milos_SD> Emanon, it is not my native :)
[22:52] <emanuelgoldstein> I will try this night ;-)
[22:52] <Emanon> what is Milos_SD?
[22:52] <Sybock> Might as well just jailbreak your iPod Touch.
[22:52] <coffee412> I will be installing ubuntu 10.04 to a customers computer. Any real reason not to install 64bit and doing 32 bit for it?
[22:53] <Sybock> Seems like these solutions people are finding are a major pain in the ass.
[22:53] <Nach0z> question. if i've got a Windows executable i wish to run in ubuntu, is there any way to do that? or am i forced to download all softwares from the software updater?
[22:53] <Sybock> Where when you can simply ssh in and drop your files where they belong is easy as hell.
[22:53] <Emanon> coffee412: 32 is a little more compatible for now
[22:53] <Emanon> flash player and such
[22:53] <coffee412> Emanon: Thank you very much. I was leaning the 32 bit way but wanted to be sure.
[22:53] <Emanon> Nach0z: wine runs windows executables in linux
[22:54] <Nach0z> Emanon: Thanks a lot bro.that'll help me a LOT...
[22:54] <Tempus_Fugit> Ok so can anyone here help me properly configure my firewall....ufw
[22:54]  * coffee412 say good bye all and ON LIVE LINUX!
[22:54]  * Nach0z will brb on UBUNTU

[22:56] <noisewaterphdmac> aef: if you have installed the partner repositories there is a all of the sun java packages available
[22:56] <Rabidmonkey1> I'm not sure how to get it to recognize the camera again
[22:56] <Rabidmonkey1> on the link there are log files if that is helpful
[22:56] <noisewaterphdmac> aef: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[22:56] <Wernis> Sybock: so there is no app for it is there ?
[22:56] <aef> noisewaterphdmac: but i need the 32 bit version on my 64 bit system
[22:57] <Emanon> noisewaterphd i have alot of repos (including all the available defaults) and jdk isnt in my list either

[22:57] <Milos_SD> So, my friend can't start applications ... he can't start anything ... only folder from desktop ... Did anyone had a problem like that? Or knows how to fix it?
[22:57] <Emanon> i think the x2 uses the same socket tommygun1231
[22:57] <rapage> there 2 fat32 one with lba whichi one should I go
[22:59] <Milos_SD> the last thing we did, was installing SMPlayer from SMPlayer PPA. It worked OK after that, but today it started to brake down. :(
[22:59] <Milos_SD> He says, that he didn't install or remove anything after we updated SMPlayer from that PPA
[22:59] <Emanon> where are there 2 fat32 rapage?
[23:00] <n0a1ias> is that ok?
[23:00] <Milos_SD> I first thought that the problem may be not enough free space on home partition, but he have 11GB there, so that is not a problem
[23:00] <n0a1ias> o wrong window, sorry
[23:01] <Wek> is there a ubuntu command line to get system info such as this command line from lanscape "/usr/bin/landscape-sysinfo"?
[23:01] <jrib> Wek: what system info are you looking for exactly?
[23:01] <Tempus_Fugit> how do I tell ufw to silenty drop ICMP echo requests???
[23:02] <Wek> basic info such as cpu load, ram, hd usage, etc
[23:02] <jrib> Wek: top, htop, df?
[23:02] <jrib> Wek: free?
[23:02] <Kvik_sverige> Wek, you can install htop
[23:02] <Wek> but would they work like the landscape command?
[23:03] <jrib> Wek: if you want something that works like the landscape command, why not use it :)
[23:03] <Wek> that's my last onption but i was wondering if there are builtin commands already
[23:03] <Wek> I'll check out thos suggestion, thanks
[23:04] <sandertje> Hi... I want to record my webcam *and* microphone using VLC. I'm at a loss what my audio device name is. I have followed this thread, but it ain't working for me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1332107
[23:04] <kneaux> anyone here know how to get rid of that dead space you get on dual-head with two different resolutions? where your mouse can go off the monitor, cos it registers the dual-head as one big rectangle...?
[23:05] <jrib> Wek: landscape just calls those various programs and combines their output, you can read the landscape command's source
[23:06] <jrib> Wek: it probably parses stuff like /proc/meminfo instead of free, but meh
[23:06] <rapage> Emanon, on cfdisk
[23:06] <Wek> i see
[23:06] <jrib> Wek: vim /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/landscape/lib/sysstats.py
[23:07] <achew22> If I download the Maverick beta will I be able to put the iso on a thumbdrive and boot it?
[23:07] <jrib> !maverick | achew22
[23:08] <achew22> I agree, I'm asking if the current USB authoring tools handle the maverick beta ISO
[23:08] <jrib> achew22: read the last 3 words
[23:08] <Emanon> achew22: i think the maverick beta is on unetbootin (not sure though) that would do it for you
[23:08] <achew22> jrib: that isn't an issue with Maverick, I'm asking if the Lucid tools can handle the Maverick iso
[23:08] <Emanon> nope i was wrong
[23:08]  * jrib sighs
[23:09] <Emanon> ill check achew22
[23:09] <achew22> Emanon: thank you
[23:10] <Fableflame> Anyone know why I keep getting a network error when I try to connect to MSN with Empathy?
[23:10] <Emanon> yea the normal usb "Startup Disk Creator" seems to be handling the 10.10 iso just fine
[23:10] <Emanon> not sure how the install would go but if it can detect it like it is it should be fine
[23:10] <achew22> Emanon: Thank you, again

[23:17] <equo99o> while issuing the command sudo apt-get update
[23:17] <Emanon> sure wippler
[23:17] <wippler> dakota....you said that to me/
[23:17] <wippler> ?
[23:17] <dakota_> Yes.
[23:17] <wippler> oh ok, thanks (two people now)
[23:18] <dakota_> as a side note (for anyone who cares) I have been testing lucid in the XO 1.5 OLPC. I have beeb having a strange issue though while installing most packages.
[23:18] <Emanon> what part of it do you need help with or just a walkthrough?
[23:19] <wippler> anyway, the thing is that I'm trying to intall Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 to a webbook using a flash drive (2GB Sandisk Cruzer).....but everytime it begins to load, it just shows weird lines going up and down the screen
[23:19] <Emanon> doesnt the OLPC work better with sugar?
[23:19] <equo99o> how do i fix this error 0% [Working]Failed to create client object: Daemon not running while issuing the command sudo apt-get update
[23:19] <Polarina> I installed libsdl1.2-dev and the header files installed at the wrong location. Why's that?
[23:20] <Emanon> wippler: you select the flash drive or does it autoselect?
[23:20] <wippler> I selected the flash drive to boot first from the BIOS thing....
[23:21] <sirecat> I installed kde full. I can't find a way in KDE to setup my wireless interface from system settings?
[23:21] <Emanon> k does it get to the ubuntu install options (Install, check disk, boot from first disk, etc) before it fails?
[23:21] <user_> F-Spot photo manager don't work, how to fix it.
[23:21] <wippler> yes, it gets there
[23:21] <dakota_> Sugar is not an OS its a GUI frontend like Gnome is..
[23:21] <TGP1994> Hi everyone. It seems I've screwed up the cdrom portion of my fstab file, as I can no longer boot into mint. This error shows up: mountall: mount /media/cdrom [647] terminated with status 32
[23:21] <paddy_> what is the default mount point for ipod touches in 10.04, i cant find mine and gtkpod wont detect it but it is mounted, i can see the ipod icon on the desktop rhythembox sees the music on it
[23:21] <Emanon> does it get to the part where it asks if you want to run it live or install it?
[23:21] <brummbaer> KB truncating articles for anybody else?
[23:22] <sirecat> TGP1994: Why ask a question in Ubuntu forums for a different distribution problem?
[23:22] <dakota_> The olpc normally runs Fedora 11, but I have an unsecured one so I can install unsighnd OS images..
[23:22] <TGP1994> sirecat: #linuxmint-help isn't incredibly helpful atm, and anyways, a very large part of it is based off of ubuntu.
[23:22] <sirecat> paddy_: Look in the media mount folder and see if it is there
[23:22] <wippler> yes, it gets to that menu, and till now I've just chosen the 'Run from USB' option (because I have WinXP installed and I don't want to mess it up till I can fix ubuntu :D )
[23:23] <paddy_> sirecat it is not
[23:23] <Emanon> and thats when it screws up? at the live boot option?
[23:23] <TGP1994> So can anyone help?
[23:23] <paddy_> sirecat when i look at the location for one of the files it gives me afc://09ec99861e5d39688ab616a7cd150ca86c94a19b/
[23:23] <Emanon> !fstab
[23:23] <delinquentme> does GIMP work seamlessly on an ubuntu system??
[23:23] <Emanon> read that TGP1994 (forgot to pipe it to you)
[23:24] <user_> how to remove F-spot photo manager !!
[23:24] <sirecat> paddy_: Then more than likely it is not mounted. First thing to check is use lsusb from console to see if it shows the ipod there.
[23:24] <mark7845> delinquentme, yes
[23:24] <Emanon> see if it tells you how to fix it
[23:24] <paddy_> it does
[23:24] <TGP1994> Emanon: Ya, been there, done that. Doesn't seem to fix it, though.
[23:24] <Emanon> or how it should look at least
[23:24] <wippler> yes, when I choose the 'Run from USB' option, I see the Ubuntu loading screen (with the dots at the bottom) and then it becomes all weird horizontal lines all over the screen going up and down
[23:24] <Emanon> im not experienced with fstab
[23:24] <wippler> like it's bad reception on a TV or something :D
[23:24] <paddy_> sirecat it does not give me the mountpoint though
[23:24] <_Neytiri_> how do i bridge interfaces and set up a ipfw firewall on 10.4.1
[23:24] <Emanon> what is the netbook you're using wippler?
[23:24] <equo99o> how do i fix this error      0% [Working]Failed to create client object: Daemon not running while issuing the command sudo apt-get update
[23:25] <Emanon> sorry TGP1994 id help you but i dont know how
[23:25] <TGP1994> Emanon: Thanks anyways.
[23:25] <wippler> Elonex WebBook (sorry, I don't have more details atm, I'm helping out a friend)
[23:25] <dakota_> but as I was saying I am running a stripped down version of lucid on the XO 1.5 OLPC, but I have a problem installing packages with some kinda manb pages error.
[23:25] <sirecat> paddy_: Ok try mounting it manually... mount -t <filesystemtype> /dev/<your device name> /media
[23:25] <Emanon> thats ok you do the best you can with what you got wippler
[23:25] <wippler> yeah, trying to :)
[23:26] <atoi> Sorry to ask this again, but I got pulled away to a meeting... I need to use an instance image on Amazon EC2... does anyone else use that and know a good Ubuntu EBS store image to use? Looks like I'll need to select a community one...
[23:26] <user_> bye
[23:27] <Emanon> googling the webbook
[23:27] <paddy_> sirecat the problem is i dont know filesystem type and it is definatly already mounted but natulaus has no visible way of showing the directory it is in, how can i see this
[23:27] <diogo_79> hi
[23:27] <mark7845> paddy_: try "df -l"
[23:27] <TGP1994> For anyone familiar with fstab, if I give my cd drive the noauto option, will nautilus still mount it when needed?
[23:28] <wippler> I did a few general searches for this problem, and some blogs seem to suggest that the native resolution (1024x600) is what's the cause of the problem......
[23:28] <wippler> ......and I think it might actually be a graphics problem because there seems to be stuff going on in the background normally.....but you cant see it for all teh crazy lines :(
[23:28] <_Neytiri_> how do i bridge interfaces in 10.4
[23:28] <diogo_79> i have plugin my wireless pci card but in dmesg it gives error cannot assign irq what can i do to solve this?
[23:29] <paddy_> cirecat i cant see it
[23:29] <Emanon> all the same wippler try the check disk option at boot maybe?
[23:29] <Emanon> or if there are options in the bottom at boot to change graphical options try those other than that i'm at a loss too
[23:30] <sirecat> paddy_: that was Mark7845 answering your query on how to list the drives...if it doesn't show up with df -l then it definitely is not mounted
[23:30] <Emanon> sorry if none of that helps wippler but i seem to be useless today :-/
[23:31] <cannonfodder> hey you guys...isnt assembly more universal than binary....like why not put programs for download in asm   so that it can be ompiled to binary
[23:31] <wippler> ok, I'll do that now.....but another question: some people suggested that you need to get it to boot with resolution of 1024x600 by changing a Xorg.conf file.....but I can't find this anywhere (or the ETC folder for that matter)
[23:31] <TGP1994> cannonfodder: It all depends on how the operating system interprets it.
[23:31] <wippler> haha, you've given me your time, I'm grateful for that Emanon
[23:31] <Emanon> thanks wippler

[23:35] <jsec> Hi all. Gwibber has been popping up the broadcast accounts window every 5 minutes or go, even though I configured said accounts 6 months ago. How can I make this go away?
[23:35] <wippler> "actionParsnip: you said if a file exists it will be obeyed......how do I make it so it obeys my file?  I'm pretty sure I just killed it though and it stopped :(

[23:39] <Emanon> i saw someone gave you some help wippler glad
[23:40] <wippler> question: ActionParsnip said that if a Xorg.conf exists it will be obeyed, otherwise no such file exists by default.....so do I make the necessary folders and put the file on the flash drive?
[23:40] <sebsebseb> earthling_: get it from the repo and its safe to use
[23:40] <Emanon> earthling_: its just from a partner as opposed to official repo i think, so it warns you
[23:40] <sebsebseb> earthling_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras will give you that, as well as some other stuff
[23:40] <pooky> I'm not sure how to ask this, is there a way to go about using google apps as default applications under ubuntu gnome? Like instead of evolution, use gmail and gcal.
[23:40] <Emanon> since it doesnt get signed i think
[23:40] <Emanon> i may be wrong
[23:40] <jsec> ActionParsnip, joshmc: Thanks guys. I pulled down the newest daily build and I'll keep an eye on if it keeps happening. If it does, I'll probably have to follow joshmc's path and blow it away :(
[23:41] <ActionParsnip> wippler: if one doesnt exist (default in Lucid) then udev will attempt to detect stuff, sometimes it works, sometimes not
[23:41] <Emanon> pooky: System>Preferences>Prefered Applications
[23:41] <joshmc> jsec: nono!
[23:41] <joshmc> jsec: I just killall 'd it :( so that's kinda a non-answer
[23:41] <earthling_> ok, will look into that
[23:41] <joshmc> jsec: I'll go back and take a look at whada heck I did
[23:41] <ActionParsnip> wippler: you just need to edit /etc/X11/org.conf and find samples online. If you want to make a skeleton file, boot to root recovery mode and run: Xorg --configure
[23:41] <Emanon> although i DO prefer the ppa version of gwibber (all warnigns for ppa's apply)
[23:42] <_Neytiri_> how do i bridge interfaces in 10.4
[23:42] <jsec> joshmc: gotcha. Well hopefully the new build fixed it and I won't have to worry about it.
[23:42] <joshmc> jsec: cheers to that
[23:42] <earthling_> thanks
[23:42] <Polarina> I installed libsdl1.2-dev and the header files installed at the wrong location. It is being installed at /usr/include/SDL/SDL.h instead of /usr/include/SDL.h. Why's that?
[23:42] <wippler> ActionParsnip: untill now I think it doesn't exist (searched the flash drive), but where do I put the file if I want it to be obeyed by default?
[23:42] <pooky> Emanon: I suppose that's the most direct answer not sure how that works though, I mean, I'd have to use a browser, and then feed it args... seems convoluted.
[23:43] <ActionParsnip> wippler: run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf   you now have write access to the file.
[23:43] <Emanon> oh thought you meant google apps like the ones you download
[23:43] <wippler> ActionParsnip: there's an example over here, and I've got the Xorg.conf file from there   -------->>>> http://webbookblog.com/reinstalling-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-webbook/
[23:43] <blsecres> Polarina: a lot of packages are making their own directories under /usr/include since it's getting "crowded"
[23:43] <blsecres> Polarina: pkg-config should take care of the details of handling all the subdirectories
[23:44] <pooky> Emanon: do such things exist for google mail/cal, like a proxy application? I found a google mail one, but nothing for calendar.
[23:44] <wippler> sorry, but I don't understand where I'm supposed to enter those commands......I'm using WindowsXP atm, the webbook I want to install Ubuntu onto has WindowsXP also
[23:44] <Emanon> you know you can use gmail AND google calendar IN evolution right?
[23:44] <ActionParsnip> wippler: cool, copy it in and reboot, if its good, cool. You can tweak with more options to get (maybe) better performance
[23:45] <Emanon> and then assign evolution a proxy it will use for all connections
[23:45] <Polarina> blsecres, and how do I use pkg-config in my configure.ac file?
[23:45] <FunkyELF> whats up guys.... I want to have a system where I can boot into multiple Linux environments, namely Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, and Gentoo.  How difficult will it be to get all of them in the same bootloader?  In Ubuntu can you skip the installation of a bootlader and then I can just edit the grub conf file manually to add Ubuntu?
[23:45] <wippler> ActionParsnip: copy it to the root or  syslinux or......there's lots of folders :P
[23:46] <pooky> Emanon: that's kind of what I'm trying to stop doing
[23:46] <ActionParsnip> wippler: whatever gets you write access to the file
[23:46] <pooky> Emanon: I have both configured in evolution now, but I usually just read it online anyways, and my calendar
[23:46] <MTec007> how can i install the PECL uploadprogress for apache2?
[23:46] <Emanon> sec ill look for standalone apps brb
[23:47] <blsecres> Polarina: http://www.openismus.com/documents/linux/using_libraries/using_libraries
[23:47] <FalsAlarm> i just used sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
[23:47] <wippler> ActionParsnip: Um....I already have write access because I'm using the USB as a regular drive right now......after I copy Xorg.conf to it, I'll plug it into the webbook and begin installing.....but the thing is I don't know where exactly the Xorg.conf is supposed to go (trying to clear it up for you :D )
[23:48] <FalsAlarm> but afterwards, i type sudo mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password myPasswordHere
[23:48] <FalsAlarm> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[23:48] <Emanon> pooky: http://www.josefrichter.com/blog/gmail-as-a-stand-alone-offline-application-using-gears-and-prism/ maybe?
[23:48] <FalsAlarm> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[23:48] <Polarina> blsecres, thanks.
[23:48] <FalsAlarm> Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[23:48] <FalsAlarm> anyone know how to fix?
[23:48] <ActionParsnip> wippler: if you read the xorg.conf is very readbale
[23:49] <Emanon> or pooky http://desktop.google.com/plugins/
[23:49] <Emanon> and you can get those for linux too
[23:49] <pooky> Emanon: http://gnome-gmail.sourceforge.net/
[23:50] <pooky> let me check that
[23:50] <Auronandace> wippler: xorg.conf goes in /etc/X11/
[23:50] <earthling_> sebsebseb, actually I already installed unrar-free from the ubuntu software center interface
[23:50] <pooky> Hrm, well, I don't think gadgets would work, I mean, no more than say, conky
[23:51] <wippler> ActionParsnip: oh ok.....thanks! I don't see a ETC folder, so i'm assuming I can just make a new  etc/x11 then put the Xorg.conf in there?
[23:51] <Auronandace> wippler: that won't work
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> wippler: the X11 (not x11) folder, already exists
[23:52] <usuario> does any one knows how can i install the metasploit framework?
[23:52] <Emanon> http://www.metasploit.com/framework/download/ usuario
[23:53] <wippler> not on the flash drive, I did a search right now :(
[23:53] <joshmc> pooky: http://lifehacker.com/129818/ask-lifehacker--gmail-as-default-mail-program
[23:53] <usuario> Emanon: thanks
[23:53] <joshmc> pooky: but
[23:53] <wippler> btw, this is a setup FOR installing Ubuntu......it's not an actual ubuntu installation
[23:53] <sebsebseb> Emanon: ok thats fine then, no need to worry about it
[23:53] <sebsebseb> earthling_: ^
[23:53] <sebsebseb> Emanon: wrong one
[23:53] <Emanon> i figured
[23:53] <joshmc> pooky: that is for the notifier, on like osx, windows etc, dunno bout 'buntu
[23:53] <Auronandace> wippler: xorg is generated at boot, since you don't have an install you can't make it use a xorg.conf
[23:55] <cherrypie_> is there a way to use my own start up sounds in lubuntu?
[23:55] <wippler> ohhhh......so is there anything I can do to make it use a different resolution?......beacuse if I try to enter Ubuntu at all, it gives me a messed up screen :(
[23:55] <earthling_> sebsebseb, I think I already downloaded some pieces of the ubuntu-restricted-extras, so it will just ignore those, if I install?
[23:55] <MrPPS> hey guys, i'm trying to get my ubuntu server to be a host for Xen VM's, and I'm trying to install xen-tools, but the package isn't available apparently, and ubuntu-xen-server won't install without it
[23:55] <MrPPS> it says that xen-tools has no installation candidate
[23:55] <sebsebseb> earthling_: yep
[23:55] <MrPPS> anyone know which other package it may be in?
[23:55] <pooky> joshmc: I'll take a look at it, I gues most people use the google apps standalone with little desktop integration, or use another app, like evolution, to migrate the info
[23:55] <earthling_> cool
[23:56] <Auronandace> wippler: you might be able to pass the screen resolution as a parameter when you boot
[23:56] <sebsebseb> cherrypie_: try #lubuntu
[23:56] <cherrypie_> thx
[23:56] <Auronandace> wippler: not sure how to do that though
[23:56] <wippler> do I dare ask what that entails?
[23:56] <earthling_> sebsebseb, what about using apt-get vs aptitude, does it matter much? I heard its easier to uninstall with aptitude
[23:56] <wippler> ok, so not hahaha
[23:56] <sebsebseb> cherrypie_: your welcome
[23:57] <Auronandace> !boot
[23:57] <ninjai> when you install the google apps, is it possible to kill the stupid amazon mp3 and facebook apps if you want to?
[23:57] <ninjai> oops wrong channel
[23:57] <ninjai> disregard
[23:57] <wippler> thank you!
[23:57] <ninjai> :)
[23:57] <sebsebseb> earthling_: aptitude can be good, for bigger stuff, since better at dealing with dependancies, also if you put aptitude in the terminal and hit enter it will open up something for it.  However apparatnly not really meant to mix apt-get and aptitude.  Also starting with Ubuntu 10.10 aptitude will no longer be in the default install.
[23:57] <wippler> I'll have a look at that, but I'll stick around here in case you come with something or I need more help
[23:58] <earthling_> ok,thx
[23:58] <sebsebseb> earthling_: using apt-get will do it
[23:59] <andre_pl> is there a way to cut off the last x bytes of a file efficiently? I have a 300GB file which I need to cut 8k from the end of
[23:59] <duffydack> how odd
[23:59] <sebsebseb> earthling_: altough I would install stuff like kubuntu-desktop wtih aptitude sometimes before, and apt-get for other stuff,  but yeah they are nearly the same thing really.  except for aptitude if you open from the terminal of course
[23:59] <pfifo> andre_pl, are you familiar with dd
[23:59] <Emanon> wouldnt that break the file though?


[05:33] <damascene> Hi,
[05:33] <damascene> sadly the alternate install start with only one translated dialog
[05:33] <damascene> where I can translate that?
[05:34] <damascene> does it share some of it's strings with the normal installer?
[06:36] <damascene> sadly the alternate install start with only one translated dialog, where I can translate that? does it share some of it's strings with the normal installer?
[08:03] <dpm> good morning all!!!
[08:12] <damascene> good morning dpm
[08:12] <damascene> sadly the alternate install start with only one translated dialog, where I can translate that? does it share some of it's strings with the normal installer?
[08:14] <damascene> actually there is more than one dialog but it's not completed
[08:20] <dpm> hey damascene
[08:24] <dpm> let me have a look, I have to remind myself
[08:49] <dpm> damascene, I think the alternate installer translations are in the debian-installer template, IIRC. What are the actual texts that appear untranslated?
[09:12] <dpm> happyaron, I've finally come round to add your feedback on charset detection on the https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/other-design-n-china - I've lightly edited it to cut down to the essential bits. If you'd like to add anything else, feel free to edit the whiteboard
[09:13] <dpm> And thanks a lot for the feedback!
[11:22] <damascene> dpm: http://uppix.com/f-clock4d70c9e70009499a.png
[11:29] <happyaron> dpm: thanks! I've read that, :)
[11:30] <dpm> cool :)
[12:37] <damascene> dpm: do you know how do I create image based countdown timer?
[12:38] <damascene> I want to create countdown timer for translators
[12:42] <dpm> damascene, no, sorry, I've never created one. Perhaps you could try to contact the people who create the official Ubuntu countdown banners
[12:58] <damascene> dpm: and where I can find them?
[12:59] <dpm> I'd recommend googling for them, as I don't know them either

[09:27] <wikkit> Hello all
[09:27] <wikkit> I am new to Ubuntu and have installed it now on my Lenovo V470c with nvidia graphics. The system does not recognize it and I would like to use it.

[01:04] <doko> lamont: any hint on the build failures on ia64 and hppa?
[01:50] <lamont> for which?
[02:14] <doko> lamont: almost any
[02:14] <doko> do you get emails about build failures?
[02:14] <lamont> gutsy?
[02:15] <lamont> no - I have to go look at the website, unless I was the uploader
[02:17] <lamont> I know that the kernel is ftbfs on ia64, which leads to some of them.
[02:17] <lamont> and gtk-2.0 hadn't built before several packages tried to build --> ftbfs
[02:23] <doko> lamont: see fontconfig for example, I didn't look yet what is missing
[02:24] <lamont> fontconfig is successfully built on all 7 architectures...
[02:26] <doko> lamont: sorry, see wvstreams, vte, metacity, gtk-sharps2
[02:27] <lamont> lack of gtk+2.0
[02:27] <lamont> ia64 is all queued to retry, hppa is still building gtk+2.0
[02:27] <lamont> then I'll give everything back
[02:29] <doko> strange, but this doesn't explain the build failures on sparc yet
[02:31] <lamont> I haven't looked at spark yet.
[02:31] <lamont> anyway, afk for a few hours
[02:57] <arthur-> doko: if you didn't check gdc patch yet, can I send you a new one with some minor fixes?
[02:58] <doko> arthur-: sure, I'll ping you before upload anyway
[02:58] <arthur-> doko: thanks a lot
[02:58] <arthur-> doko: and see http://experimental.ftbfs.de/build.php?arch=&pkg=gdc-4.1 :-)
[02:58] <arthur-> built with libphobos on arm, good new
[02:28] <arthur-> lamont: if I give you a .dsc for gdc-4.1, could you please try to build it in a hppa/sid chroot?
[04:53] <lamont> arthur-: sure


[21:11] <chris__> hi there, I have difficulties to login to launchpad. I get an error "Oops! Sorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad.  We’ve recorded what happened, and we’ll fix it as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience.  (Error ID: OOPS-19214051374fc6ef3e07cd304033b94a)"
[21:11] <ubot5`> https://oops.canonical.com/?oopsid=OOPS-19214051374fc6ef3e07cd304033b94a
[21:13] <chris__> Can anyone help me? The problem this error occurs is probably, because I deleted my very old ubuntu one account and created a new one with a sensible user name (the old one got something like xYAk assigned automatically)


[00:11] <davr0s> hi i was told i should mention an nvidia stuttering issue on focal-fossa here. basically after updating to this accidentally, i've got the nvidia drivers (tried 390-440) consuming 20% cpu whilst you do nothing, periodically pausing (eg every half second, freezing for a few frames)
[00:11] <davr0s> i'm going to re-install an earlier version of ubuntu for my own use but i was told raising this issue here might help debugging
[13:30] <lotuspsychje> trippeh: did you try that dav1d snap yet?
[15:15] <lotuspsychje> fix released in totem bug #1856927
[17:50] <The_LoudSpeaker> Anyone knows about this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/1857036
[18:05] <lotuspsychje> seems like teward ^is in the bug
[18:06] <lotuspsychje> The_LoudSpeaker: the bug is confirmed, was there anything specific you needed to know?
[18:07] <oerheks> one would use 'sudo su - username' i guess?
[18:07] <oerheks> i never ran into such `sudo --login --user USERNAME`, maybe this is container specific?
[18:47] <The_LoudSpeaker> lxc exec container-name -- sudo --user ubuntu --login is a command from official docs of container.
[18:47] <The_LoudSpeaker> I didn't have the issue in eoan container
[18:47] <lotuspsychje> oerheks: ^
[18:48] <The_LoudSpeaker> lotuspsychje: yup! i found it, asked teward to file it. I wanted to know if there was any improvement apart from just being confirmed.
[18:49] <lotuspsychje> The_LoudSpeaker: well thats what bugs are for, to follow the progress there
[18:50] <lotuspsychje> The_LoudSpeaker: some ideas to get a quicker solving/fix are: finding more users to affect the bug, testing things yourself and update the bugs comments
[18:51] <The_LoudSpeaker> I can help in testing. Will do whenever I can.
[18:51] <The_LoudSpeaker> to find more users affected, that's the reason I mentioned the bug here. XD
[18:52] <lotuspsychje> The_LoudSpeaker: yep, thats already a good idea
[18:59] <feoh> Had a fun 20.04 experience over the weekend. Did a dist-upgrade, Chromium broke hard (wouldn't accept keyboard input) but then my dog got sick so I had no time to report. Next morning I did a new update and it was fixed :) IMO it's kind of amazing to see how quickly people move to fix things in this process as they're reportd.
[18:59] <feoh> +e
[19:00] <lotuspsychje> feoh: dist-upgrade?
[19:02] <mason> feoh: Did your dog function correctly again after you upgraded him?
[19:02] <feoh> :P Poor thing was having a bit of gastro-intestinal turbulence. I wish an update would fix her :)
[19:02] <mason> "I can stop eating carrion any time I want."
[19:03] <mason> I need to report a bug or two. I need to do a reinstall for the reproducer. I guess I'll do that today.
[19:09] <Iarla> Is there an expected feature list for 20.04? I see the feature freeze is coming up this month and havent been keeping up with the news.
[19:09] <Iarla> (I've looked at articles online but not sure if they're accurate, one seems to use an unofficial reddit post as it's source)
[19:10] <lotuspsychje> Iarla: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/10/ubuntu-20-04-release-features
[19:10] <lotuspsychje> Iarla: the current folder theme is already in the dailys too
[19:11] <Iarla> lotuspsychje: thank you. I had seen that but didn't realise it was updated just this month. Great.

[19:14] <Iarla> Anyone know where the group who maintain Unity congregate? I'm curious if it's being tested for 20.04.
[19:14] <lotuspsychje> Iarla: the community behind unity7 and 8 is driven alot by the ubports guys too
[19:14] <lotuspsychje> #ubports
[19:15] <Iarla> Sorry, I mean Unity 7
[19:15] <lotuspsychje> but unity is still an official packages in the repos, so should work still
[19:15] <Iarla> Oh, it's official? Excellent. I thought it was in Universe with minimal maintenance.
[19:16] <lotuspsychje> !info ubuntu-unity-desktop
[19:16] <lotuspsychje> its in universe
[19:16] <Iarla> ah
